The Shooting Star Story Chapter 1
Equestria was always a gorgeous place to be, the sun shining bright on all of the happy ponies throughout the land. WIth Princess Celestia to raise the sun, and Princess Luna to watch the night and to raise the moon, all would be well lest any criminals try to ruin the lives of the inhabitants.
Any other day in Ponyville would have been fairly normal for Twilight Sparkle. She had plans to stop by the bookshop with Spike in tow, but he’d been stopped by Pinkie Pie who’d needed help planning a birthday party for somepony. So she was off on her own, passing through the marketplace and picking up a few sundry items that Rarity had asked for when they’d last conversed.
With her muzzle in a book from her library, She managed to dodge everyone oncoming ponies like a pro. like she has been doing this her whole life.
It wasn’t until she was in front of the Carousel Boutique that she was stopped in her canter by a furious looking Rarity who pushed the book down from Twilight’s view with her left hoof.
“Uh, hey Rarity. I brought the things you asked me for?” she greeted, with a pleasant, albeit confused smile.
“I cannot believe you, Twilight Sparkle! And after all the hard work and nagging I did get him to agree to a date with you!
” Rarity berated sharply, chest puffed out and muzzle in the air as she circled her friend with a sharp gaze. “Honestly, I realize you can take a mare to water, and you can’t make her drink and all of that, but really! The nerve!”
“What are you… talking about?” Twilight tried again, wincing at the sharp tone her friend took with her.
“Thunder Chaser is quite possibly one of the most eligible stallions in all of Equestria, and you blew him off to do, what exactly?” Rarity inquired, looking frightfully more enraged with her good friend than before.
Twilight Sparkle opened her mouth, then shut it again, and looked into the distance to ponder, what exactly
had taken her mind away from the date that her friend had carefully arranged for her without really asking her opinion. Oh, that’s right. She’d gotten her muzzle caught in a different book she’d found at the library on some ancient history of Equestria. But she couldn’t very easily tell Rarity that. The mare would likely yell even more than she already had done. Though, it wasn’t like her to lie to her friend...
“I’m really sorry, Rarity. I was looking through an old book back at the library, and I lost track of time. I know how much trouble you went to, but it’s really alright! I’ll apologize to him ask if he wants to do something another time,” she offered, sheepishly lowering her head and shuffling some dirt with her hoof.
Rarity waved her hoof in the air and sighed dramatically, carrying on for a moment, “I mean, a tall, dark red pegasus with a gorgeous orange mane doesn’t just flutter in every day, you know. Why, next thing I knew, he was off with that Scarlet Dusk down at the Joke Shop! It’s a wonder if I can find any stallion that isn’t already up to his mane in mares!”
“If there’s something I can do--”
“Why, yes exactly! I know just the one who will do!” Rarity interjected, not giving any further attention to Twilight Sparkle for a moment, “He’s exactly the sort that would stand quite well! Good background, great character! Ooooh! If I didn’t know any better, I could hear wedding bells already!”
The white unicorn practically danced her hooves for a moment, giggling as she thought to herself with glee exactly the perfect match for her dear friend, but then stopped in her tracks and lowered her eyelids as she looked at Twilight, “Now listen, your date will be at your door to pick you up no later than six this evening! I’ll be there to make sure you come out right on time. And Twilight, do try to be a little gentle with this one. He’s a bit… shy around the fairer pony.”
Sighing with a bit of relief that she was no longer being berated, but also an air of reluctance, Twilight nodded, and said, “I promise I will give this a chance because you are going to such an extra effort for me. But I want you to know that if this doesn’t work out, I would like to try to find someone on my own time in the future.”
“Oh, you say it like it’s as if you don’t like the poor stallion already! If you give him half the chance you’ve given the last one you went out with, I think you will be quite surprised! Honestly, I really should just set up a matchmaking service already. It would be quite the adventure, really,” Rarity beamed, nattering on about her ideas.
Twilight took the opportunity to slowly back off, and said her quick goodbyes, “Well, good luck with that, Rarity. I hope that it does go well. And I promise I will be on time for my date with this mysterious stranger.”
“You will be ready by six o'clock sharp, Twilight Sparkle! I’ll be there early to make sure you’re ready!” Rarity called after her friend who was making a fast getaway.
The rest of the day passed rather uneventfully, with Spike in passing telling Twilight that he’d be staying at Pinkie Pie’s for the evening to help get ready for another party she was planning the next morning, apologetic that he’d made a Pinkie Swear to do so. It made Twilight a little more nervous, knowing how she couldn’t find an excuse to blow off this new date that Rarity had picked out for her.
Finally, she returned to the library at around five in the afternoon, hoping to at least get a little more reading done before she was Rarity’s dress-up doll for who knew how long.
Alas, it was not meant to be, as at exactly five-on-five, there was a delicate knock at the door.
“Come on in, Rarity!” Twilight called, a twinge of reluctance in her voice.
The door opened, and Rarity trotted in whilst using her magic to carry a large bag full of who-knew-what kinds of outfits she’d chosen for the occasion.
“Marvelous, Twilight! I’m so very excited to get you all dressed up for this! I know you’re going to love him!” the seamstress chimed with delight.
After a series of rather unfortunate fashion faux pas, according to Rarity, the winning combination was a lovely, royal blue dress, with a cornflower collar. She even had her mane styled simply in a french braid, her tail matching with actual cornflowers looped through the braid.
“I must say, simple suits you, Twilight. You look lovely! Oh! And just look at the time! We must get you out the door at once! It’s hardly becoming of a Lady to keep a Gentlecolt waiting,” Rarity grinned, ushering her friend quickly out the door.
As soon as they were outside, they nearly knocked the poor stallion over.
“Dear me! Terribly sorry to have made you wait,” Rarity apologized profusely, then stepped to the side of the gray colt and Twilight.
He was modest, but dapper, Twilight observed briefly. It was his cutie mark that caught her eye first, the star looking a little similar to her own, but she knew it wasn’t polite to stare so she turned her attention to his face. His black mane was simple with and combed around his horn, and a little longer than most stallions wore in the current fashion (she’d been spending a little bit too much time with Rarity), but it suited him as he shied his face away from her letting his bangs fall over his eyes a bit and looked and toward Rarity, saying in a sheepish voice, “It’s… alright, Rarity. I was standing a little closer to the door because I was anxious.”
“Twilight, this is Shooting Star,” Rarity introduced, unflipped by the mumblings of the other pony, “He’s just recently moved here from Canterlot, and I hope you’d be kind to show him around.” She gave her friend a wink, then turned, and as she began to leave she said, “I must be getting back home. I have a hundred other things I need to tend to. See you later!”
With that, Rarity seemed to hurry off much more quickly than she normally would have had it been anyone else before Twilight could get a word in edgewise.
The purple unicorn then turned her attention back to Shooting Star, who was nervously shuffling a hoof against the ground, but smiling politely at her, as if waiting for her to make the first move.
Well, Twilight resolved, she was here to make friends. For now, she’d treat it just like that.
“Rarity can be a bit abrupt sometimes, sorry about that. I’m Twilight Sparkle, but you can just call me Twilight. I’m also pretty new to Ponyville still, but I’ve had a bit of time to get to know the place pretty well. Would you like to take a walk around with me?” she said with a warm smile.
“Oh, yes, that would be lovely. Thank you, Twilight Sparkle--er, sorry, Twilight,” Shooting Star stuttered, with a small grin, his head raising back up a little more strongly.
So they moved along at a good pace, with Twilight starting the conversation, “So, Rarity said you were from Canterlot… but I never really saw you around there. Granted, I guess I… didn’t really see much of anyone back then.”
“Yes, well, you see…I was too busy with my studies on enchanting it is my special talent, I hardly have much time for anyone other than a few close friends of mine…” he explained, then his eyes went a little wide and he quickly corrected, “Sorry! Sorry, that came out a little worse than it should have. You see, I do care quite deeply for my friends. They’ve been very kind to put up with my habits, and I’d do anything for them.”
Twilight giggle a little, putting the male unicorn at a bit more ease, “It’s quite alright! I used to be very much the same, but my friends also helped me to come out of my shell a lot more. I still mostly make time for reading though when I can.”
The two both shared a laugh, having a few heads turn in their direction and watch as they walked through the lit-up marketplace for the party Pinkie was throwing to celebrate some holiday of hers or another.
“Well, what brings you to Ponyville?” Twilight asked, her purple eyes looking over at his bright brown eyes that appeared to be entranced by the colorful antics and festivities that were going on.
Shooting Star smiled and shook his head for a moment, chuckling as he replied, “Well, I mentioned my friends earlier. You see, there was a pen pal program that started just a few months ago. I signed up because I thought it would be easier for me to make friends if I were to just write letters with someone who didn’t really know me that well. Sure enough, a good couple of them wrote back, asking me what my interests and hobbies were. They were really excited to meet me, so they came to visit a few times in Canterlot, then convinced me to make the trip down here to Ponyville. I actually came down during the Summer Sun Celebration… when all of that went pretty crazy. But the town had a real charm to it, so with a little nagging, they talked me into moving down here and I just got settled in about a week ago.”
“Wow, that sounds like quite a time you’ve had. I’m glad you seem to have made some good friends here in Ponyville. It really is a great place that seems to bring everypony together!” Twilight said jovially, “So what kind of books do you like? And how did that hobby bring you together with your friends?”
“I mostly read books about Enchantings some History and science to. Though I have been getting more interested lately in dabbling in some magic spells Mostly enchanting. I’ve never really had a knack for spells, but I know a lot of it has to do with practicing… I guess I mostly preferred the theory up until now, but if I had access to more of the theory of the craft, perhaps I’d develop an aptitude for casting some of my own magic,” he said with a sheepish grin. “I am pretty good at organizing my friends to help with a lot of the research though! Books really were a lot of what brought us together, so we help each other with our research and we’ve been kicking around the idea of forming a club called the ‘Resourceful Scholars’! I know it probably sounds really cheesy, having a group that just sits around and does a bunch of research--”
“Not at all!” Twilight interrupted with a shout, causing Shooting Star to nearly losing his footing as he jumped a bit. “Sorry!”
Twilight reached over and gently helped him gather his bearings, accidentally brushing her hoof along the back curve of his spine toward his croup. He shivered a little, then blushed and turned his face away again shyly. She pulled her hoof back quickly and blushed as well.
She took a deep breath again, smiling and still blushing as she continued, “Sorry about that. I didn’t mean to startle you. What I meant was… That sounds like an amazing idea! One set of eyes on the same books is hard enough to get all of the research done. Having a group of people all working toward the same goal seems like it would be much more productive and intuitive. That’s really clever, and one of the best ideas I think I’ve heard in a long time. It must be nice to have a club like that!”
Shooting Star’s blush became more apparent, and he hid his eyes behind his bangs again, mumbling, “Well, if you’d like to… I’m sure you’d be more than welcome to come to one of our meetings sometime soon. We usually get together on Tuesday afternoons and have lunch at my house before either going through my collection of books or going to the market to look for more.”
“That sounds like it would be great! Oh, but also, I actually live at the Golden Oak Library. I’m sure that I could help you and your friends find all of the books that you could need! At least, for a little while,” Twilight said with a smile.
The gray unicorn’s face lit up, and he practically danced a small circle around her in delight. “That would be wonderful! Thank you so much, Twilight! I can’t wait to tell my friends all about it!” he laughed with delight, then returned, a little more close to her right flank. He then asked, “So what about you? Would you mind telling me a little bit about yourself?”
“Oh, I thought pretty much everyone knew. Sorry about that,” she sighed, a small smile still on the edges of her mouth. “I’m Princess Celestia’s pupil. She sent me here to Ponyville to help with the preparations for the Summer Sun Celebration, and after a whirlwind adventure of my own, I found that friendship really is the best magic in the world and Princess Celestia wants me to study it to the best of my ability and to report back to her my findings.”
“That sounds amazing!” Shooting Star exclaimed with a big grin, “I can’t imagine getting to work so closely with the Princess on such important work. It must be the opportunity of a lifetime! Oh.. Uhm, if you’d like to write a letter to her about this, I certainly wouldn’t mind being called your friend, if that’s alright.” He pawed sheepishly at some stones on the path after his outburst.
Twilight raised her chin up and nodded with a pleased look in her eye, “I’m always happy to make more friends. Especially someone like you. I can’t believe how many different things we have in common!”
They both shared a little laugh at that and slowly came to a stop in front of a small looking house with a round door and square windows.
“Oh, after all that walking, it seems like we’ve ended back up at my house. If you want, we could start walking back to your place. I couldn’t let a mare walk home alone at night. I know Ponyville is relatively safe, but all the same, it would be rather untoward of me to do so,” Shooting Star offered.
“I mean, I’m pretty sure I could certainly handle myself if I ran into any trouble or something. But really, I’m curious if there’s anything else you’d like to do before that?” Twilight asked, her purple eyes sparkling with delight at how much fun she’d had so far.
“Well, we could go inside my house for a bit. I do have quite a collection of books Most of them belong to the club But if you’d like to look through some of them. I think I have some tomes from places far away that I bought from a traveling merchant in Canterlot a year or two ago. And I could make us some tea,” the stallion suggested, shifting a little more nervously, though he still seemed much more at ease than he had been earlier.
Twilight thought it over for a moment. She would love to have an opportunity to see some different books from the ones she was used to scanning through on her own time at the library…
“Sounds good to me!” she finally decided, with a nod, and the pair headed for the door with Shooting Star leading the way.

The Shooting Star Story 2 (Special Chapter)
The Shooting Star Story 2 (Special Chapter)
Shooting Star and Twilight Sparkle entered the small, humble abode of the aforementioned stallion, with a little flourish.
The entrance of the house was little more than a small living room with a couple of comfy looking chairs by a tiny fireplace and on the opposite side was an open kitchen. The only other door in the room was open to what appeared to be a bedroom and presumably a bathroom as well. Most notably of all, almost every single wall-space in the living area (and the part of the bedroom that Twilight could see) was covered by bookshelves that were lined and filled to the brim with more books than Twilight could have possibly thought would fit inside the small house.
“Wow, you really do have quite a collection,” she gasped, eyes wide as she quickly moved to scan all of the shelves, perusing volume after volume of subjects from the more math-based sciences, to the practical applications of pegasus feathers in potions! It seemed like he had a book on the basics of practically everything! No wonder he started a club to help his friends with their research.
Shooting Star chuckled, with a quick bob of his head, shying his face away again briefly as he said, “I have to admit, I’m quicker to buy another couple of books before I’ve even finished one. I can’t say that I have read even a quarter of my collection. It’s rather embarrassing. But, I love everything about them at the same time. The smell of the pages, the print of the words, it’s all such a wonderful feeling to have so many books.”
Twilight nodded as she listened to him, her eyes finally catching the black spine of a book that stood out because it was so… simple, amid all of the other colorful and complicated titles on the shelves. She pulled the book off the shelf with her hoof and used a little bit of magic to hold it up and read the cover. It was a romance book, with some cheesy title or another, but the ponies on the front were in a bed together, making loving eyes at each other. A red bookmark stuck out of the top just slightly, and she quickly flipped to the page.
“Oh! Wait please n-not that one--” Shooting Star tried to say, but it was a little too late as a furious blush came up on his face, so did one that matched on hers.
“Aa-ah, I’ve, uhm, never… I can’t say I’ve… uh… seen a book quite like this, before,” Twilight stuttered, her eyes still scanning the words on the page as she grew even more embarrassed by the minute. But she really couldn’t stop reading. It was enthralling and enticing, reading about the ponies in the book doing… that sort of thing. The spot between her hind legs was starting to feel a little warm and funny, tingling almost, before she raised her eyes questioningly over to a mortified looking Shooting Star. “Do you… do you like to read this sort of thing?” she asked in a shy, quiet voice.
He shuffled his hooves nervously, eyes trained on the wood floor of his house. “S-sometimes, before I go to bed at night. It’s not the most well written sort of thing, but it drones on in a calming sort of way at times with fanciful romantic ideas.”
“Have you… uh… ever done any of the things in this sort of book with anypony?” Twilight questioned again, setting the book down on a small end table by one of the chairs and moving toward Shooting Star.
He shook his head, moving a little closer to her, noting how she seemed as interested in him as he was in her. “I’ve never really… found a mare I liked as much before now, really, to want to do something like that with but I… I think I like you enough, Twilight Sparkle,” he replied, his eyes meeting hers with a burning passion.
Almost like magic, their muzzles closed in together, and their lips met in a soft, curious kiss that was almost too perfect. It was warm, and slow, and gentle and everything the two could have wanted.
They clumsily stepped together toward his bedroom, the shuffling a hooves against the floor loud and scraping nearly like a scuffle of sorts. After a moment, they situated a bit better just before his bed, finally breaking their passionate kiss.
“W-would you like to--?” Shooting Star began, but Twilight cut him off with another quick kiss.
She then pulled her mouth back again and smiled, “Yes, I would. I really like you, Shooting Star.”
“I really like you too, Twilight,” he sighed happily, smiling as well but still blushing. He lifted his front hooves up and helped her out of her dress, looking over her body with a soft adoration. He gasped as he got a close look at her cutie mark. “Your star… it’s almost exactly like mine, with the six point. I don’t think I’ve ever really seen anypony with anything similar before.”
“I don’t think I’ve seen one like yours either, Shooting Star,” she nodded, gently tracing her hoof over his back left flank, drawing a slight shudder from him. She didn’t get to do anything else, as he quickly pushed her back onto the bed and started kissing her again, this time more fiercely. His hooves began tracing lightly against her body odd patterns and shapes.
He was feeling out what spots would bring the most noise from her, noting the changes in moans against his mouth. He finally broke from kissing her and began to kiss down her body, nibbling and sucking on spots that seemed sensitive as she moaned and writhed against him. Finally, he reached the spot between her legs that smelled heady and made him heavy between his own legs.
She was dripping wet and ready for him, but he knew that it was his duty as a gentlecolt to make sure she enjoyed this.
“Shooting… Star?” she inquired sheepishly, the blush full on her cheeks, but he did not seem to pay her mind.
He lowered his tongue to her slit and began licking, slowly first, up and down.
“A-ah!” she cried out, tossing her head back and her hips bucking just slightly into his face.
He used his front hooves to help hold her in place while he delved his tongue back between her folds, occasionally flicking it against her more sensitive spots as she keened and begged him for more until she finally came on his tongue with a loud scream.
“Shooting Star!” she cried, dripping onto his eager tongue, before collapsing a bit with ragged breath while she gathered her bearings for a moment. He sat back on his hind legs and watched her, his large stallion cock eager for attention.
She sat up after a moment, then shifted so she was laying in front of him on the bed, her mouth open and licking all over his shaft, eager to repay the favor. Her mouth slowly traced up and down at first, from the bottom of the long organ all the way to the tip and swirled around it. She gently took the tip into her mouth first, a little curious and cautious, but watching with her own eyes as his eyelids fluttered shut and he moaned loudly and deeply from his chest. She then used her own from hooves to try to keep him steady and from bucking into her mouth as she continued sucking, her head bobbing up and down, enjoying the deep breathing and moans that came from him. She started moving her head faster and sucking his dick harder, still using her tongue as she went.
His moans grew louder and louder, until he suddenly, gently, pulled her head off of him and laughed a little, blushing and still moaning whilst panting out, “Can’t have this go on much longer, otherwise I’ll be spent before we’ve finished.”
She blushed, but nodded, and backed down, splaying out onto his bed again, dripping more for him, this time in excitement for the main event.
He followed suit, climbing over her and lowering his body so it just barely brushed against hers, the head of his thick cock nudging at her entrance heavily and prepared.
“Are you ready?” he asked, breathing deeply, though he was anxious.
She confirmed to him with a nod, and he pushed in, slowly and carefully.
“Ahhhhhh!” she cried out, and he stopped halfway, looking moderately alarmed, but she shook her head. “I’m f-fine, it just… it’s so b-big…” she said with a blush.
He nodded, and finished sliding inside of her, until he was in to the hilt, then stoped to let her adjust.
“H-how does it feel?” he asked carefully, brushing a few hairs of her mane from her face.
She smiled and moaned out a little in response, “I f-feel so full. What about you?”
He let out a low groan, and his hips jerked just ever-so-slightly, causing her to gasp another moan. “You feel amazing wrapped around me,” he managed to mumble as she squeezed around him when she spoke.
Carefully, he pulled back a bit until just his tip was still inside of her, before thrusting back in. He repeated this for a little while, listening to Twilight breathe and moan beneath him, until her hips began to move along with him, meeting his thrusts. He began to speed up, pounding in and out of her faster and faster, a little more roughly every time.
“Sh-Shooting Star!” Twilight cried out, “I’m c-cumming!” Her deep channel tightened around his cock with a vice-like grip, squeezing him harder than even when he’d first entered her.
“Aaahhh, Twilight!” he called after her, his bucking slowing just a bit as the pressure from her caused him to cum as well, shooting his load deep inside of her and as he rode out both of their orgasms, her still twitching will small aftershocks of pleasure beneath him. Finally after a few, final thrusts, he managed to just come to rest inside of her for a few moments while his cock softened a bit inside of her.
“That was…” Twilight panted, gasping for air.
“You were…” Shooting Star breathed heavily, looking fiercely into her eyes.
“Amazing,” they finished together at the same time, both pausing and then laughing a little as they realized they were almost in perfect synchronization with one another.
The stallion moved to slowly slide out of her at last, grabbing a towel he’d left beside his bed earlier quickly to semi-mop himself off and rest under her. He then got up from the bed and moved into a smaller room just off of the bedroom for a minute, returning with a couple of cleaner towels and climbed back onto the bed to help clean Twilight off gently, as any gentle colt worth his salt would do.
“I really enjoyed that, Shooting Star. Even if it wasn’t exactly where I expected my night to go when I first went out,” Twilight said with a small smile.
“I’m glad it was good for you. It was great for me too. I never would have imagined I’d have such a wonderful time with such a beautiful mare, Twilight,” Shooting Star smiled back, “You’re really something quite special, you know.”
“Oh stop,” Twilight blushed, waving her hoof at him, still grinning. “You’re a really great stallion to hang out with. We should do this again.” They both blushed deeply at that, and she quickly added, “The hanging out, and the talking, and the maybe this if you would… want to…?”
Shooting Star laughed, looking a little bit more at ease after that, realizing this was very low pressure, “I’d like that a lot, actually. Any of this would be great to do again, as long as it’s with you.” He then leaned down and gave her another soft, simple kiss. She was a beautiful mare, and he honestly couldn’t have asked for a better first date
