The Witchblade EqG: The 13 Artifacts

Twilight was feeling good, really good, as Sunset drove them to Crystal Prep. Yesterday, she had finally done something about her situation, with her own two hands, she, Twilight Sparkle, ended the threat that was Lemon Zest. However, there was still a threat, a threat that was going to be looming over her and others for the foreseeable future if something was not done. The threat that was Crystal Prep Academy.

Maybe once upon a time, the Academy was something to be proud of. But in the years of Abacus Cinch’s rule, it has become nothing more than a breeding ground for the sociopathic, amoral, and deplorable of Canterlot’s wealthy and influential children. Its only rule was to do all you could to get ahead, whether that be by cheating, strongarming, or just being better than others. Abacus Cinch used this as a way to boost Crystal Prep’s reputation, to make it more outstanding than every private school and public school in the city. A better reputation meant more money, more money meant better equipment and facilities, which in turn helped to produce better students. Or so the lie was told.

While the money did go towards making the campus and equipment state of the art, the real payment came in the way of favors to Cinch. If a certain student was failing, and their parents had ties to certain political societies in Canterlot, then it might be good to bump up their grades or make whatever problem that was facing them go away. All of it was to just build up more connections, more power, until she was standing at the top of the heap, to become the shining example of what an educator could be. Honestly, Twilight didn’t know why Cinch was intent on boosting the reputation of the school, her curiosity did beg for the question to be answered, but it was just a secondary objective at this point. Perhaps in the final moments she would find out before bringing it all crashing down around Principal Cinch, but until then, she had to devise her plan.

The Friendship Games would be the week after next, and Twilight was determined to bring Crystal Prep to its knees before then. It seemed appropriate; it was during the Games where Crystal Prep shined the most. Twilight never understood why it was like this, what honor or value of friendship was gained from a competition pitting public school children against highly educated, athletic, and affluent children? CHS and CPA’s educational and athletic curriculum were vastly different from each other, it was the equivalent of a dog fighting against a wild lion.

In any case, Twilight assumed it wouldn’t be that hard to accomplish, not after what happened to her. Up until now, Principal Cinch had been able to sweep many Crystal Prep’s shortcomings under the rug, but now was different. A documented attempted murder on school grounds and her blood staining the floor of the bathroom where she almost died, a spectacle that everyone saw, at least the aftermath, but something that could not be denied. Her big brother would surely head up the case, and Cadence would no doubt assist with whatever information was needed.

The school was effectively shaken to its core, its foundation was weak, and now all Twilight had to do was chip away at that foundation more and more until it was practically standing on a toothpick. All these thoughts and more swam in her head, up until they arrived at the school parking lot. Sunset put the car in park and glanced at Twilight with a bit of concern.

“You sure you’re up for this, Sparky? You don’t have to come back right away,” said Sunset.

Twilight smiled, leaned over, and kissed Sunset on the lips. “I’m sure. I can’t live in fear, Sunset, I have to become stronger. And I am now, I don’t know how I got these new abilities, but I’m grateful for them. I think I can do some real good now.”

Sunset looked pensive for some reason, as if she wanted to tell Twilight something, but in the end the look changed to her trademark confident smirk. “Alright then, let’s make a scene.”

Twilight exited the car with her girlfriend, unbeknownst to her, Twilight had altered her body just a bit before coming. She widened her hips a little, toned her muscles, and increased her bust size by half a cup. It made for a slightly tighter fitting uniform, but she wanted to feel sexy, not just for Sunset, but for herself. For years the students had called her mousy, flat, and unattractive, saying how no boy in the school would ever want to touch her, and if they did, it would be out of pity or because they thought she’d be an easy lay. Twilight did wonder if they were aware of Indigo raping her but judging from the reaction on that day, it seemed that her fellow students were in the dark about that.

Sunset and Twilight strode into the halls of Crystal Prep, and as expected, the students’ eyes all gravitated towards her. Before, Twilight would shrink at the feeling of so much attention, but today, she reveled in it. As they walked, the teen genius put a little more swagger in each of her steps, her hips swaying back and forth in a tantalizing motion, drawing the eyes of her classmates, both male and female. She opted to let her hair down, allowing it to flow down her back, and with the departure of her glasses, the students were able to get a full unobstructed view of her face, which it seemed was causing some feelings of attraction.

As they walked, they found Sugarcoat at her locker, Twilight and Sunset stopped by and greeted their friend.

“Hi, Sugarcoat,” said Twilight.

Sugarcoat closed the locker and stared at Twilight, glancing up and down her form. “Wow…um…Twilight, did you get…hot these last couple of days?”

Twilight blinked innocently and asked, “What do you mean? It’s just me.”

“Sorry, it’s just…I can’t put my finger on it, but you seem different. Besides letting your hair down and forgoing your glasses. Contacts?”

“Yeah… I always had a prescription and some lenses on hand, I just never used them, but I thought a change was in order,” said Twilight as she bashfully rubbed the back of her head.

Sugarcoat nodded. “Huh, it suits you.” The blunt girl turned to Sunset and said, “Aren’t you the lucky girl.”

Sunset beamed with pride as she hooked an arm around Twilight’s waist. “Damn right I am.”

Twilight, with an evil smirk, reached behind Sunset and swiftly grouped her lover’s ass under her skirt, making the fiery haired teen give a little yelp in surprise. “Yes, yes she is lucky.”

Sugarcoat’s left eye twitched, having caught the action. “Uh…huh…that’s new.”

“But now unappreciated,” Sunset added with a sultry tone.

“Mmm, I’m sure you’d like more, but we’re in school, so none of that now,” said Twilight. “Unless you can find a private place.”

“Oh, I am so going to find one now.”

Sugarcoat was trying to understand what she was seeing here, Twilight was never this bold before, or sexy. It was honestly starting to make Sugarcoat question her sexuality at this point, but that was a secondary concern.

“By the way, Sugarcoat, has Sour Sweet come back yet?” Twilight asked.

“Actually, she just got back today. Her and Sunny Flare have been inseparable since she got back, and I’m starting to think that there’s more to that,” said Sugarcoat.

“I see…How are you holding up since…you know?” Twilight asked.

Sugarcoat leaned up against the lockers and looked down at the floor. “I have mixed emotions, the five of us have been together since freshman year. While I didn’t consider them my friends, they were acquaintances, Indigo and Lemon being dead…I’m not sure how to feel. I only associated with them because the four of them were the top tier of Crystal Prep, which…along with other methods…allowed me to stave off the same kind of abuse you were going through. God…I still can’t apologize enough for being weak like that…!”

Twilight separated from Sunset, she took a few steps forward and hugged Sugarcoat, surprising the bespectacled girl. “I understand, Sugarcoat, you don’t have to feel bad. This school…the other students…they only give you two choices, be yourself and suffer, or become something you’re not and lose sight of yourself. But you saw the light in the end, you decided to rise above it and admit what you did was wrong and renounced it.”

And for that, I’ll make sure you’re spared, Sugarcoat. You don’t need to suffer like the rest of them.

Abacus Cinch was in her office, for how much longer was a different story. She was already getting calls from the school board about the incident at her CPA, not to mention the fact that Shining Armor was leaving messages about requests to talk to certain students about past incidents, under the guise of showing that there was systemic pattern of abuse going on at Crystal Prep. It also didn’t help that Cadence was giving them access to almost everything they needed, at least what she could without Cinch’s expressed permission. However, if she didn’t, it would be seen as obstruction of justice, in which case she relented to give them what they wanted.

Cinch was being backed into a corner, and without Maria Mare or her contacts, there was no way this was going to end well. Crystal Prep Academy’s reputation was about to be sullied, all she had worked for, all that she had done in the name of making the school a paragon of higher education, and now that was all about to come crashing down because a few of her hormonally, psycho students couldn’t keep their heads out of their pants and did all of this.

There had to be a way to keep all of this from coming back on her, there had to be way to make sure that she and Crystal Prep could survive this little tragedy.

*BEEP*

Cinch growled when she heard her phone go off, she pressed the call button and answered, “What is it?!”

{Um, Ma’am, I have a student here to see you.}

“Student? I have no one scheduled today! Whoever it is, tell them to make an appointment, I’m very busy!” Cinch sniped.

{Well…Ma’am, it’s Twilight Sparkle.}

Cinch’s eyes widened at the mention of that name. What could Twilight want? Why was she coming to see her? After everything that has happened, she figured she’d be the last person Twilight wanted to see.

“S-Send her in,” said Cinch.

After she retook her seat, the Principal of Crystal Prep watched as the door opened and revealed Twilight Sparkle. The moment she laid eyes on her; Cinch could tell something was different about her prized student. Her demeanor, posture, and even the calm look on her face all spoke of great confidence, a far cry from the scared, docile, and submissive girl she remembered. Either the event from three days ago had changed Twilight Sparkle, or this was her twin sister.

“Hello, Ms. Cinch, may we talk?” Twilight asked.

“Yes, of course, please have a seat,” said Cinch.

“Hmm, I’d prefer to stand if that’s alright.” Without waiting for a reply, Twilight began walking the room, peering at the various certificates of Abacus’ school days as well as the case filled with trophies and awards. “You’re in a tight spot, aren’t you Ms. Cinch?”

“I beg your pardon?” Cinch inquired.

Twilight smiled playfully. “Come now, we both know that Crystal Prep is in a bit of a crisis right now. What with my attempted murder, Indigo Zap raping me on a near daily timetable, and the constant abuse I’ve suffered from my classmates, and at your directive, I might add. Oh, and let’s not forget the blackmail.”

Cinch tightened her jaw but remained calm. It would be the height of foolishness to allow a child, much less an intellectual like Twilight Sparkle, rattle her. “I truly am sorry for what you’ve been through, Twilight, but look at you now. You’re almost about to graduate, with full honors, with the highest GPA in Crystal Prep’s history, and as our valedictorian. I understand you’ve suffered while being here but see it from another prospective. The real world will not be kind to you, it rarely is. If you can survive an environment like Crystal Prep, then surely there’s nothing out there that can bring you down.”

Twilight giggled from the twistedness of Cinch’s reasoning. “You do have a point, there’s undoubtedly going to be people like Indigo Zap, who will want to use my body for their pleasure. There’s going to be people who want to hurt me, simply because they think I’m better than them, when I don’t consider myself better than anyone, mind you. Like Sunny Flare and Sour Sweet, and the rest of the student body.” Twilight narrowed her gaze at Cinch. “And there will most certainly be people who want to manipulate me from on high, like you, Principal Abacus Cinch.”

“Careful, my dear, you tread on thin ice. I’ve had a rough time since your…incident…and I’m not one to be angered right now. You wouldn’t want your future ruined because of some boost of confidence, would you?” Cinch asked.

Twilight crossed her arms and remained silent.

“I thought not.” Principal Cinch knitted her hands together and stared Twilight down.

Twilight smirked and sauntered over to Cinch’s desk, she then sat on the edge and looked down at the older woman. Now Cinch knew something was different about Twilight, before, she would cower at her glare, and draw in on herself. But now, it seemed as if she was completely unfazed by her threat.

“Principal Cinch, you’ve spent your whole career making this school what it is, I can appreciate a woman of your caliber striving for excellence, but…” Twilight glared down at Cinch, which made the older woman flinch. “You can only push someone so far before something snaps. Something to think about, Principal Cinch.”

Twilight got off Cinch’s desk and began walking to the door, she paused with her hand on the doorknob, but then turned to glance over her shoulder. “I hope you’ll be able to fill the spots for the Friendship Games team, we lost Lemon, Indigo, Fleur, and Upper Crust. It’d be a shame if we lost any more members, I mean, if it comes down to just me, Sunset, and Sugarcoat, I think we’d just quit. We’d have to forfeit the Games.”

Cinch gritted her teeth, just who did Twilight Sparkle think she is? Speaking to her superior like that, it was as almost like…

“Are you threatening me, Miss Sparkle, and your classmates?”

Twilight gasped in – mock – shock. “Principal Cinch, I would never bring harm to my fellow classmates! They may have abused me at every turn, but I’m above such petty things. Have a good day.”

The resident genius of Crystal Prep left the room, leaving Cinch with a pit of dread in her stomach. Something was disturbingly off about Twilight Sparkle, the girl who feared authority, who feared her, was in here acting in a similar manner to Sunset Shimmer. Was this her influence? Was Sunset Shimmer somehow making Twilight Sparkle act more like her? Granted the girl needed to grow a spine, but now of all times was hardly the best time. Or was it that she was privy to some knowledge that Cinch herself wasn’t? Something so bad that nothing would be able to save her or the school from being dragged through the muck?

Cinch growled in frustration, her options were limited, very limited. Her backers were already distancing themselves for fear that Twilight’s incident would draw attention to everything that they helped Abacus cover up. She needed information, and she needed it now. Abacus hit the call button on her phone, ringing her secretary.

{Yes, Ma’am?}

“I’d like you to send a message, I want my daughter here as soon as she is able, she is excused from her classes until she is done speaking with me. Understood?”

{Yes, Principal Cinch! I’ll have her called in immediately!}

It didn’t take too long for Sunny Flare to come to her office, the girl feared her, as was the right response. When her daughter entered the office, she sat in the empty chair and waited for her mother to say something.

“Do you know why I called you in here?” Abacus asked.

“N-No, Mother,” said Sunny.

“I just had a visit from an interesting visitor, Twilight Sparkle.”

Sunny Flare’s eyebrow rose in confusion. “Wait…Twilight Sparkle came to see you; you didn’t ask her to come?”

“Correct.”

Sunny Flare was flummoxed by this information, she knew as much as Abacus did that Twilight Sparkle never came to her office unless called in or if she scheduled a time to see her. She wasn’t the kind of girl to just come unannounced. “What did she want to talk about?”

Abacus put her hands behind her back as she began to pace the room. “I don’t think it was just to talk, if anything, I feel as if she was delivering a warning to me.”

Now Sunny Flare was even more confused, because it did not sound like Twilight Sparkle. Twilight Sparkle was a nerd, a little mousy, thing of a girl who was too smart for her own good and was the resident whipping girl. She didn’t threaten, she didn’t intimidate, and she certainly didn’t deliver warnings of any kind. Although, Sunny Flare had been hearing how Twilight was carrying herself different since she got back, apparently, she even looked – as farfetched as it sounded – attractive.

“I don’t understand…why would Twilight Sparkle of all people deliver a warning? That sounds more like something that Sunset Shimmer would do,” said Sunny.

“I think she’s partially the reason. That girl has become a real nuisance to me, she’s even affecting my prized student into taking on her bad habits! I need you to nip this confident streak while we are able!”

Sunny nervously played with the hem of her skirt as she tried to contemplate what her mother was requesting of her. “M-Mother…I-I don’t think that’s possible…Sunset Shimmer is going to be a lot more protective of her after what Lemon did. If she even thinks someone is out to hurt Twilight, she’ll…” Sunny gulped. “…she might just kill someone!”

Abacus stopped her pacing. “……Yes……that would be rather inconvenient, I certainly can’t afford to lose any more of my students.”

“I-I’m sure that was all an act, it’s still Twilight Sparkle, the nerd, the meek, mousy, little submissive–!”

Abacus raised her hand up, making Sunny Flare stop talking. “Thank you, my dear. You may return to your class.”

“Y-Yes, Mother.” Sunny Flare exited the room, leaving Abacus alone.

Her daughter’s words wouldn’t stop echoing in her mind, she had heard rumors that Sunset Shimmer had threatened the student body with harm should anyone hurt Twilight Sparkle, while also proclaiming themselves to be a couple. Indigo Zap was a wild card, but one that she had her daughter keep an eye on. That jock bitch couldn’t keep it in her pants and just kept at it with Twilight, constantly sexually assaulting her. It was getting to the point that Abacus was going to have to intervene if it started to show on Twilight’s grades or mental health, the last thing she needed was for her to have a mental breakdown and commit suicide. But a new wild card had entered the deck and thrown off the entire balance.

Sunset Shimmer was an unknowable factor, she didn’t know what she would do, or how her presence would influence Twilight. Hell, she never thought a girl like Sunset Shimmer would ever give Twilight Sparkle the time of day. Oh sure, she thought the girl was a godsend, she had grades and intelligence to match Twilight, in fact, Abacus thought she was blessed to have another prodigy to tout. But it seemed that the second prodigy also had a rebellious streak, the proverbial “bad girl” architype that always seemed to draw in girls like Twilight Sparkle. At first, she thought that Sunset might be able to bring some stability to Twilight Sparkle, her isolation was by design, but she needed someone to connect with in order to keep her levelheaded and mentally stable, so when Sunset Shimmer entered the picture, she was more than happy to let things play out.

Unfortunately, Abacus wished she had kept a tighter leash on that girl. Ever since her arrival, the entire balance of Crystal Prep was thrown off. The social hierarchy was practically turned on its head, the students feared Sunset more than her daughter’s clique, and her physical strength was great enough to match their star female athlete. There had to be a way of getting rid of her, if she could make Sunset Shimmer bend, make Sunset regret ever thinking she was her better, then Twilight’s confidence in her girlfriend’s strength would be shattered and she’d be back to the meek little thing she used to be.

Abacus got behind her desk and pressed the call button. “Get me the captains of the football, weightlifting, and basketball teams, please.”

“I’m sorry…Twily…you want me to do WHAT?!” Cadence exclaimed.

It was early afternoon when Twilight visited her soon to be big sister-in-law, and that’s when Twilight decided to tell her to drop whatever plans she and Shining Armor were cooking up to take Cinch down.

“It’s just like I said, I want you to drop it,” said Twilight calmly.

Cadence walked from around her desk and knelt before her soon to be little sister-in-law, placed her hands on Twilight’s shoulders, and looked her in the eyes. “Twily, be honest with me, I know you went to go and see Principal Cinch, did she say anything to you?! Threaten you?!”

“Nope, and for the record, I went to see her.” Twilight smiled and added, “We just had a friendly chat is all. Nothing threatening, at least on her part, anyway.”

Cadence blinked. “Did…Did you threaten her?”

“Not in any terms that would be legally construed or interpreted as being ‘threatening’, friendly banter I guess would be a good way of putting it,” she explained.

Cadence…didn’t know what to make of this. Twilight was never one to make such moves like that, she was shy, intelligent, and a kind girl. Although, considering what had happened to her, perhaps Twilight decided to change her attitude and outlook on life. While this would be a good thing, as she always believed that Twilight could do with being more assertive and confident, but a change like this after such a traumatic event can sometimes lead to worse things down the road.

“Twily, have…have you spoken with the school counselor? Or anyone?” Cadence asked.

Twilight could see what Cadence was implying, she placed her hands on Cadence’s arms and gently moved them away from her shoulders. “Cadence, I understand why you’re worried. I was – for all intents and purposes – killed three days ago if not for Sunset coming to save me. But it’s not the first time I was stabbed…at least…this was the first time I was stabbed with someone hating me so much.”

“Excuse me?!” Cadence shot to her feet. “This isn’t the first time?! When were you stabbed the first time?!”

Twilight sighed and recounted the events of last month when she first met Sunset Shimmer. After Indigo molested her in the locker room showers, Sunset had decided to take her out to a rave party. And then she told her about the part where some gang members wanted to rape her, but Sunset more or less killed them, but not before their leader stabbed her and nearly killed her. Again, if not for Sunset’s power, she would’ve died that night.

Cadence leaned against the desk and pinched the bridge of her nose as she tried to process this information. She could tell that part of Cadence was wrestling with both wanting to chew out Sunset for taking Twilight to such a place, and another part was probably wanting to hug her for saving Twilight’s life again.

“I’ll need to have a little talk with Sunset about that, later though. Still, Twily, while I’m happy that you’ve gained some confidence, I’m afraid of where it’s stemming from. People often can get a false sense of invincibility, or even go full YOLO after going through what you’ve gone through. I just don’t want you making decisions that could get you hurt, especially when it comes to Principal Cinch. Yes, she’s on her heels after the attempted murder,” Cadence then spoke under her breath, “and the other stuff Shiny managed to dig up…”

Twilight’s brow raised, Cadence may’ve thought she said that too low for Twilight to hear, but Twilight had increased her hearing sensitivity, so she was able to hear that last bit.

“But Principal Cinch still has resources at her disposal in the meantime that can ruin you, we have to box her in so that she can’t make a move without it looking like retaliation against you,” Cadence explained. “I know it’s taken us a while, but trust me, we’ll take her down soon. And then you can be at ease for the remainder of your senior year. Along with a lot of the other students, I’m sure.”

Twilight stood up and hugged Cadence, the older woman hugged Twilight back. The teen genius always felt safe and comforted in Cadence’s arms, she might’ve been the first girl she crushed on back when she was a young girl but wasn’t aware of her orientation at the time. That was for the better, she liked thinking of Cadence in a familial sense rather than a romantic one. That feeling was reserved for Sunset alone.

“You know how analytical I am, if I find my actions are starting to harm me or those I love, I’ll seek help, I promise. Okay?” Twilight asked.

Cadence nuzzled the top of Twilight’s head and said, “That’s all I ask, Twily. I’m here for you, so are Shiny, your parents, and Sunset, of course.”

After their talk, Twilight headed out of Cadence’s office and walked down the hallway to her next class. As she did, Twilight noticed how some of the boys were eyeing her like a piece of meat, ironic as before they wouldn’t so much as glance her way. All she did was make some minor adjustments to her body, let down her hair, and suddenly she was the object of every boy’s wet dream. And if the looks were any indicator, some of the girls of the lesbian orientation were having their own private lewd thoughts about her as well.

Twilight thought it was pathetic. They were all pathetic, narcissistic, amoral, sociopaths.

Sorry to say this Cadence, but the other students had their chance to rebel against Cinch. As a collective, they could’ve stood up to her. No matter her influence and connections, if the entire student body rose against Cinch, there was little she could do. But that’s not what they did, they either stood by or joined in on my torment. Sure, I could let it go and move on, leaving this place in my proverbial review mirror, but what will happen to the next person who comes to CPA? What will they have to endure? If it’s a girl, will she be humiliated and raped? If it’s a boy, will he be beaten and hazed? Or will they suffer worse than me?

This current batch of Crystal Prep students are also a danger to society. They’ve learned nothing but how to hurt others for fun, cheat, steal, and influence their way to get what they want. This city, let alone the world, will not be a better place with them in it. They’re tainted thanks to Cinch, so I have to be the one to purge the world of their evil and the evil that is this school. Tabula Rasa.

It was Friday now, and Twilight and Sunset had decided to go out after school, a little impromptu date. Sunset had asked if they should go home and change out of their uniforms first, but Twilight said that going it their uniforms was fine. Adding that the schoolgirl look just made their date feel a little sexier. Sunset made no arguments there and went with it.

The two girls drove down to the Canterlot Mega Mall, which was had its own multiplex movie theater. Once there they milled around and window shopped, although Sunset said she could buy whatever Twilight wanted. Twilight smirked, perhaps she would take her girlfriend up on that offer. The two CPA students headed to “Tracey’s”, Twilight picked out several clothes that were of different sizes, some that were for her original measurements, and others that required a more…filled out figure.

Sunset didn’t understand at first, but she figured out really quick when Twilight revealed her first outfit. A black tube top that hugged her enlarged breasts, making her cleavage more profound. Her midriff was mostly exposed and going lower was a crimson miniskirt that rode up dangerously close to revealing her panties. Twilight had also swapped out her school uniform socks with black see-through socks that hugged her thighs. All while Twilight was giving her girlfriend and very seductive look.

“What do you think, Sunset? This doing it for you?” Twilight asked in a sultry tone.

Sunset audibly gulped and after a minute of filing this image away in her mind for use later, she finally spoke, “Wow…Sparky…just…Wow!”

Twilight giggled and then turned around to give Sunset a look at the back. “I hope it’s more than just ‘wow’.”

“It’s sexy as hell,” said Sunset.

“Thank you.”

Sunset looked at her girlfriend for a moment longer and asked, “Did you…alter your body again?”

Twilight smiled and nodded in affirmation. “I wanted to get some clothes that match my new sizes, now that I can change my body’s proportions as I see fit, I thought I should branch out and try on the clothes that I never thought I could fill out or look good in. And…” Twilight blushed. “Since I have someone that I can look good for, I wanted you to get your opinion.”

“Sparky, you know I think you’re cute in whatever you wear,” said Sunset honestly.

“I know, but I want to feel sexy for you. I want be…bolder!”

Sunset was starting to like how Twilight was branching out, perhaps her abilities weren’t such a bad thing, at the moment anyway. “Okay, try the next thing on then.”

Twilight smiled again and closed the door, after a minute she opened it again and revealed a long black dress that hugged her frame and accentuated her curves. When she turned around, Twilight revealed that it was backless, the bottom hanging dangerously close to revealing the crack of her cute rear. It went on like that for about ten minutes before they left with some bags filled with Twilight’s purchases.

Their next stop was to a “Alicia’s Secret”, a lingerie shop that boasted a wide selection of women’s under, most of which ranged from the safe to the provocative. Twilight normally would be too embarrassed about even thinking of stepping into a shop like this, a place like this was for girls with bombshell bodies and assets, not her thin body and modest bust size. However, now that she could change her sizes, her current underwear would chafe and dig into her skin. It was either buy new underwear or just go commando, a proposition that Twilight wasn’t completely excluding from her mind.

Of course, Twilight had Sunset come into the dressing room with her so that she could see what she was wearing. She also got to see how Twilight changed her bust, waist, and hip sizes at the drop of a hat. She tried everything from a C-cup to an H-cup, Twilight decided to stop there, she didn’t think she’d ever go higher than a D-cup out in public, the higher cup sizes were going to be exclusive to the bedroom. And as most things go, with Twilight trying on different sets of bras and panties, constantly showing off her naked body to Sunset, it got the fiery redhead all hot and bothered and devolved into the two of them having a heated make out session in the changing room, which then led to the two of them fingering each other to a finish.

Twilight’s heart raced, she had never done anything so risky like this, they could’ve been caught and thrown out, a clerk could’ve opened the door and saw them, or there could’ve been someone standing outside and listening in on them. That last one kind of turned Twilight on a little. Regardless, it was exhilarating.

After they cleaned up a little, the girls exited and bought the sets that Twilight had tried on. As they walked along, Twilight’s eyes shifted about, she could feel a presence, a hostile one. Unbeknownst to Sunset, Twilight had increased her spatial awareness, allowing her to feel changes in the air, or in this case, when there were three persons following behind them. Her sense of smell was also heightened, allowing her to smell the chemical changes of the persons behind them, which was how she knew they were hostile, and it seemed they were directed at Twilight.

“Let’s go see a movie!” Twilight suggested. “C’mon!”

The teen genius pulled her lover along by her arm, leading the two of them to the movie theater. After a short discussion, Twilight and Sunset decided on a horror movie, standard date night supernatural horror film. The movie was slated for two hours of runtime, which was perfect. After the previews were done and the movie got underway, Twilight made sure that the people she sensed following them were there as well. With her night vision, Twilight managed to casually spot her pursuers, and just as she had figured, it was a trio of boys. Her sense of smell told her as much, she was picking up strong scents of testosterone, and from the additional scents, some steroid use.

Twilight waited about an hour before getting up and excusing herself to use the restroom. As she walked up the aisle, Twilight stopped at the row where the three boys were sitting, she brushed the arm of the boy who was sitting on the edge and shot him a suggestive wink. As she walked out, Twilight noticed that they were following her. Perfect.

She continued walking until she exited the theater, she kept going until she entered the hallway that led to the restrooms. She walked past them and into the maze that was the mall’s internal structure, Twilight found one of the large storage rooms and walked right in, leaving the door open for her pursuers to enter. The inside was spacious, with four shelves in total lining the walls, each shelf was filled with various supplies, cleaners, paper towels, light bulbs, and other things that were needed to keep the mall in working order.

Twilight turned around and leaned against the shelf so that she could face the door, the moment she did that, her pursuers walked in. The first was dressed in a Crystal Prep boys’ uniform, he was wearing a letterman jacket with a patch that showed he was the captain of the football team. He was muscular, as per his profession, with gray skin, coal colored hair covering his eyes. His name was Score if she remembered correctly, and she always did.

The second was a head taller than Score, his complexion a dark brown, and his hair a sandy white. He too wore a letterman jacket, the patch on his jacket represented the weightlifting team of Crystal Prep, the boy went by the name of Dumbbell, aptly named as far as she was concerned. The third and last member of the trio was taller than both boys, his letterman jacket had a captain’s patch for the basketball team. His complexion was tanned, with brown hair that covered his eyes as well, the tall one was named Hoops.

All three were captains of their respective teams, all three were known for being the “Trouble Trio” of Crystal Prep. They weren’t above throwing their strength and status around, and despite their looks, probably the most dangerous of the three was Dumbbell, his clothes hid it well, but as part of the weightlifting team, he was very muscular, and stronger than even the tallest one. Twilight estimated that a punch from him would likely be equal to that of getting a concussion in a head on car collision. It was clear that he also controlled the other two, even though all three were captains of their respective teams, Hoops and Score were followers.

“Hello, boys, may I ask why you’ve been following me and my girlfriend since we came here?” Twilight asked politely.

“Bell, how did she know we were following them?!” Score asked.

Dumbbell rolled his eyes and growled, “Well now she knows for sure, we could’ve denied it!”

“That wouldn’t be possible, I saw you in the theater. So, again, why are you following us?”

“You’ve been a little uppity, you and your dyke girlfriend,” said Dumbbell.

Twilight gasped in mock surprise. “We have?!”

“Yeah, you two have messed up the school, things haven’t been right since Sunset Shimmer came,” said Hoops.

“Your ‘girlfriend’ needs to be taught a lesson, and I think you will be a good example of what happens when you rock the boat,” Dumbbell threatened as he cracked his knuckles.

Twilight tapped her chin and pretended to think for a moment before she said, “You know that that didn’t turn out so well for Indigo and her friends, right? Sunset beat them pretty good.”

Score laughed at that. “Hahaha! Please, Indigo was a tough butch bitch, but we ain’t some pack of little girls!”

“Heh, yeah, people know not to mess with us,” Hoops added.

Twilight smiled and undid her uniform buttons, showing off her cleavage to the three boys, she opened her legs a little, making their eyes wander to the gap between her thighs. “Oh my, what are you three going to do to me? Here, in this storage room, away from anyone who could help me!”

“I haven’t gotten to bang a nerd girl in a long time, and you look cuter than most of them,” said Dumbbell. “So, let’s start with gettin’ those clothes off and seeing what we’re workin’ with!”

Dumbbell marched forward; right hand stretched out as he prepared to rip Twilight’s uniform off. However, before the muscular boy could even lay a hand on her, Twilight shot out with her left hand and caught him by the wrist. Dumbbell scoffed, a little impressed by her speed, but it was a futile effort all the same. However, when Dumbbell tried to reach forward again, he couldn’t budge. He tried again and again, but somehow; he wasn’t able to move an inch. Twilight’s hand was like a vice, holding him in place.

“What the fuck?!” Dumbbell exclaimed as he tried to get loose.

“Well, this is embarrassing, the captain of the weightlifting team is being overpowered by a little nerd girl,” Twilight mocked.

“You fucking bitch!” Dumbbell raised his left hand and went to slap her across the face, but Twilight’s enhanced reflexes allowed her to watch everything in slow motion and let her catch his left hand by the wrist as well. The weightlifting captain’s eyes widened with shock, there was no possible way she should have been able to catch that. “W-What the hell?!

“You really shouldn’t underestimate people, especially with all the strange things that have happened in the city,” Twilight stated.

The teen genius pulled back and then pushed forward, throwing Dumbbell forward until he rolled on the floor and slammed against the door, making both of his subordinates back away. Dumbbell got up, rubbing his wrists which were pulsing with pain. He looked to his two subordinates and released a angery growl.

“Don’t just stand there! Go and get that bitch already!”

Hoops and Score nodded and began advancing on Twilight. The teen genius sighed, she closed her eyes for a moment, and when she opened them, the other two captains froze in place. The whites of her eyes glowed a pale blue, and her pupils and irises became one bright neon magenta color. Suddenly, Hoops and Score found themselves frozen in place, a thin aura of magenta was layered over them, they struggled as hard as they could, but no matter what they could not move an inch. Dumbbell rose back up and readied to attack, but that same aura layered over him, freezing Dumbbell in place.

“W-What the hell…is going on…?!” Dumbbell demanded.

Twilight chuckled, she then waved her hand, and all three boys went down on their knees before her. “This would be telekinesis. My abilities have allowed my brain to undergo a change as well, I’ve gained access to the greater faculties of my mind and as a result have been able to step into a whole new world of power.” Twilight took out her cellphone and switched it to selfie mode to see her face. “Hmm, guess using kinetic abilities has a side effect of making my eyes change color and glow. Oh well, it’s minor.” Twilight put the phone away and returned her attention to her would be attackers. “Okay, I don’t have a lot of time, so let’s get this over with quickly, shall we?”

Twilight walked until she was standing in front of Hoops. The tall boy shook in fear as he stared into Twilight’s glowing eyes. “W-What are you g-going to do to m-m-me?!”

“I’m going to read your mind, Score’s numerous concussions from playing football might make the information choppy. Dumbbell is strong and very resistant, so it might be tricky to pull the information I want out of him. You on the other hand are a bit simpler,” Twilight took a step back as her eyes glowed brighter.

“W-WAIT?!!”

Twilight felt her own mental energy pierce into Hoop’s mind like a spear, it probed deep into his memories until she was able to see why the three captains wanted to assault her.

~*~*~*~

Hoops, Score, and Dumbbell were sitting in Principal Cinch’s office. The older woman was sitting behind her desk, eyeing each of the three boys with great scrutiny. Hoops was nervous, glancing to his right, he could tell his friends were the same. There wasn’t much they feared, but when it came to Principal Cinch, that was a whole different story.

“I suppose you three are wondering why I’ve called you here?” Principal Cinch asked.

“I swear, that girl is lying! I never touched her!” Dumbbell exclaimed.

“That cop had it out for me, those drugs were planted!” Score stated.

“He fell and broke his leg; shit happens on the b-ball court!” Hoops defended.

Cinch blinked and then sighed heavily. “You three aren’t in here because of something you’ve done, it’s because there’s something I want you to do.” All three boys looked at each other nervously, especially after just spouting what they just did. “Forget all of that, I honestly could care less about whatever it is you you’ve done!”

“O-Okay, Principal Cinch, what did you want us to do?” Dumbbell asked.

“I want you two to teach Sunset Shimmer a lesson, by doing whatever you see fit to Twilight Sparkle. I only have these rules: you can’t break any of her bones, you cannot harm her head, and if you feel the need to…avail yourselves of her more intimate parts, I ask that you not be too rough with her.”

Hoops, Score, and Dumbbell stared at Cinch in confusion.

“Did…Did you just give us…permission to rape a girl?” Hoops asked.

“My, and here I thought you were the slow one.” Cinch stood up and slammed her hands on the desk. “That’s EXACTLY what I want you to do!”

Score put up his hands in a stopping motion. “Hold up, hold up! You seriously want us to get that Sparkle nerd and gangbang her?! I mean…she’s gotten a little hotter, but…”

“Oh, please, don’t tell me you’ve suddenly got standards?” Cinch scoffed. “She has a vagina and breasts, that should be more than enough to satisfy yourself!”

“Okay, why?” Dumbbell asked. “You’re askin’ us to go and do what we want with a girl, all to teach Sunset Shimmer a lesson? Why?”

“Ever since Sunset Shimmer arrived at our school, she has thrown it into chaos. The entire social hierarchy has been completely disrupted; you cannot tell me that things have been the same since she has been here?”

Hoops thought about it for a moment, and Cinch was right. The school hadn’t been the same since Sunset Shimmer arrived, she was sticking by Twilight Sparkle a lot, practically acting like her bodyguard. Then there was that declaration that she and Sparkle were an official couple and that anyone who tried to mess with her would be taught a lesson. The top clique in the school was beaten up because they tried to mess with Twilight, and ever since then, things have been turned upside down.

“But didn’t she mess up Sunny Flare and her group because they tried something with Sparkle?” Hoops asked.

Cinch nodded vaguely. “Yes, she did, she broke Indigo’s arm for it. But you aren’t about to tell me that three strong young men like yourselves are afraid of one girl half your size, are you?”

Dumbbell stood up and growled, “Hell no!”

“Good, because you’re going to do it. Not because I’m asking you, but because I’ve had to clean up your messes for a long time, and right now, I’m thinking of throwing the police some red meat to throw them off the trail of everything else that’s gone on here!” Cinch threatened.

The three captains gulped, all of them recalling their individual transgressions and the ones they have done together. All three of them knew that the things that Principal Cinch had covered up for them would put them all away for a good while, and all of them were up for scholarships to universities for their respective athletic professions.

“What if Sunset doesn’t take the hint?” Hoops asked.

Cinch smiled. “Then you have my permission to not hold back in giving her the message, directly.”

~*~*~*~

Twilight retreated into her mind, her fists shaking angrily from what she just saw. Principal Cinch was trying to hurt Sunset through her and using a method that she’d been suffering for almost four years under, it only reaffirmed her decision about what to do with Crystal Prep and the students within it. Reasonable people would have reported Principal Cinch, but her probe into Hoop’s mind allowed her to see some of the things he did himself, along with some of things he and his friends were involved in.

“Okay boys…” The corners of Twilight’s eyes flickered with small embers of green energy before she narrowed her gaze at the boys. “I should kill you here.” All three captains had looks of fear in their eyes. “But you’re more valuable to me alive right now. So, that being said, there’s another aspect of my mental abilities I want to try. This will be the first time I’m trying this, so you might sustain brain damage. Let’s be honest, though, you three dying won’t be a big loss to the world.”

From behind the doors came flashes of neon blue light, along with screams of pain. Then after a couple more minutes, Twilight emerged from the doors, she checked her cellphone and gasped. “Oh my, that took a little longer than hoped it would! Gotta hurry back!”
