Downtown Canterlot was unusually quiet this evening. Only a few ponies were milling about in the warm evening. Most had likely gone to bed due to the late hour or were just hunkering down for the night. So when a loud groan of annoyance rang out into the night, only a few really noticed and even fewer cared. Only the voice that it belonged to.
Firelord Ember stood in a small inn in the Canterlot streets near the castle. There, she was dressed in a bear skin vest with holes for her wings and leather pants. A fairly modest appearance despite Dragons usually preferred to be mostly nude.
Standing nearby was a rather annoyed looking orange dragon. She wore nothing but a grey t-shirt that was slightly large on her, the neck region hanging off her right shoulder with just a pair of shorts on underneath. Smolder shifted her wings and stood tall despite Ember having to look down to talk to her. "Stop being vague! I am more than old enough to attend." She raise up her claw and pointed to each end. "Old enough to drink, bang, start a hoard and know when our Dragon Lord is hiding something interesting."
Ember smiled softly. "I know. You've done the Dragon Kingdom some damn good services over the years. But there are certain qualities that must be met in order to attend and sorry, I am not allowed to say what they are."
Smolder's face scrunched up as she stamped her bare dragon foot against the ground, just strong enough to crack and bend the wood slightly. "How does any creature expect me to figure this out, if no one is able to tell me what it is I need to do?!"
Ember nodded knowingly. "Trust me. I get it. I was standing once where you are now. You'll make it someday. A strong Dragon like you just has to be assertive enough and maybe slightly crazy enough, to be willing to put in what it takes to get in."
Ember thought for a moment, seeming to reflect on something before continuing. "Alright, I promised I would at least let you hang out in Canterlot as a thanks for some your past exploits so enjoy the evening and try not to get into too much trouble."
Smolder rolled her eyes. But jolted forward when she realized her Dragon Lord was leaving. "Hey wait a second!"
"Sorry. Can't. Already running late."
Ember grunted and then quickly turned towards the open door. "Oh and you'd best let Ocellus in soon, I'm sure she is getting tired of sitting just outside the window."
Smolder's paused mid step in surprise before remembering who she was talking to. "R-Right..." She shifted, now leaning against the bed, trying not to look too defeated or guilty of anything.
Ember gave a quick wave and was soon gone, having taking off and flown towards the castle.
Ocellus hand reached out from just below the windowsill. Smolder turned, went over and helped her friend into the room. A blue changedling with a green sweeter top, yoga pants and sneakers soon joined her in the room. "Wow, Smolder... How did she even know I was there? I am pretty sure I didn't even make a sound."
Smolder let out small chuckle. "You don't get to be Dragon Lord long if your instincts aren't at peak condition... Also she probably saw me glancing at the window while she was getting ready and connected the dots. My friends list isn't exactly a large one. And you are the one I tend hang out with most."
Ocellus sat on the bed. "So it sounds like plan A went about as well as expected. On to plan B then?"
Smolder grinned and nodded. Ocellus doing that same, getting up and back over to the window, reaching downwards. She quickly hefted a large suitcase up and unto the bed, opening it up. She dug past some regular looking attire, some cylinder looking objects, before finding a black bag at the bottom. Smolder looked at her friend quizzically for a moment, about to ask about the cylinder objects, before recognizing one of the labels as matching one of the toys she liked to use. Shaking her head, she decided to drop that question, instead focusing back onto Ocellus.
Taking the black bag out and opening it revealed two black skin tight jumpsuits. She also took out some black gloves, boots and a black long thin cloth to tie around the waist. Smolder let out a low whistle.
"Between a Dragon and a Changedling, we should have no problem sneaking in and finding out for ourselves. Hope it wasn't too hard to get these." Smolder said, looking over her suit.
Ocellus shook her head. "Actually, it was pretty easy. Though I did have to tell Silverstream. Wouldn't have secured these without her. She seemed surprisingly willing to keep quiet about this, though I have a feeling I will be owing her a favor later."
Ocellus looked over the cloth for a second, seemingly lost in thought. Smolder couldn't help looking slightly intrigued.
"You seem... Surprisingly calm about sneaking into the capital of Equestria."
Ocellus grinned. "Not sure if its just you rubbing off on me or sheer curiosity, but King Thorax constantly brings up this party in passing and I am tired of not knowing what in the heck he is implying most of the time. Always uses an excuse or changes the subject soon after bringing it up."
Smolder grinned and quickly threw off her t-shirt, her breasts bouncing slightly from the freedom. Ocellus blushed and glanced away for a moment as Smolder began to slip into the jumpsuit.
She clutched her own to her chest, doing her best not to look up as she slipped into the bathroom to change. Dragons may not see nudity as a taboo, heck even Changedlings usually don't care as much but for some reason, there was just something about seeing her friend change that made her warm up more than it should of.
Soon she was able to remove her clothing and slip into the jump suit. Black gloves and boots fit snug. She also found a small beanie. After exiting she saw her friend in the exact same getup waiting for her. She was reaching deep within her own suitcase, looking for something. The sound of gems and nothing else caused Ocellus to wonder if she even brought any other clothes to wear.
The orange Dragon's tail, now covered using a special black tail cover, swished back and forth slightly before going ridged as she dug out a map. She had gotten it from Spike awhile back. It had a detailed instruction for how to secretly get past the walls undetected, though it would be up to her and Ocellus from then on. She had to spend some serious brownie points to get this without him asking questions. More time memorizing the entry. But it will all be worth it. Tonight was the big night.
Smolder glanced out the window. "I've been waiting years for this. Dragon Lord Ember... Always coming back to the Dragon Lands looking like she just came back from the worlds best vacation and eager to tell stories but always stopping herself before revealing anything interesting. It is time we learn what's up." She took one final look at the map and hoped that everything was still just as it was drawn up.
With that, she rolled up the map, stuck it back into her suitcase, turned off the lamp. She turned back to her friend as she got ready to head out the door. "Ready?"
Ocellus took a deep breath, her heart racing while trying to do her best not to stare at how much the jumpsuit seemed to hug her friends body. After a few seconds of silence, she mentally slapped herself and nodded. "Ready!"
***
Smolder hugged the wall as the winds blew past her. She was doing her best not to look down as just a few inches past her boots was the steep drop down the mountain. She gulped. Wings or not, those winds would be a struggle. Not to mention, Ocellus wouldn't fair any better. Those thin wings wouldn't stand a chance. There wouldn't be any chance at all really considering these skin tight suits didn't come with wing holes for some reason. Thankfully, Silverstream seemed to have gone the extra mile and had one installed for her. Even including a tail cover. She glanced back down again and shuttered, her tail twitching slightly at the large drop just one slip-up away.
Best to be careful. She could not imagine how Spike had managed to find this way in but it was the best shot they had. The entrance was so crazy and even dangerous that not a single guard would be patrolling the outer area. What she was looking for was a flood drain on the side of the wall.
The two inched there way along, neither saying a word though the wind would have made it tough anyways. Eventually there was a feeling, a rush of relief as the storm drain came into view. It was just big enough for them to fit in between the bars but that was going the be the easy part. The hard part was coming up.
Smolder helped Ocellus into the storm drain then followed her friend inside, glad to be out of the wind finally. The bars blocking them were easy to slip through and soon, the two were on their way.
After making sure to crawl slowly as to not draw any unwanted attention, the storm drain opened up to a large pond. Water from it just barely lapped at the edges. Both creatures looked around, hoping there would be some land to walk on but there hopes were quickly dashed. It was just water for several meters. The orange Dragon sighed and began taking off her boots. "Please don't be cold water, please don't be cold water. PLEASE don't be cold."
Ocellus glanced down at the water beside her. It was hard to tell how deep it was exactly but it looked at least chest deep. Already this was looking difficult and they had only just begun.
Smolder stared at the water for a moment, the moon reflecting off the pool, making it shimmer slightly. There was no use in testing it, that would only make it harder if it was really cold. Smolder held her breath, slipped through a large opening and soon found the water surrounding her. To her surprise, it was actually kind of lukewarm. Now able to get over that shock, Smolder quickly walked/swam to the edge.
"How is it?" Ocellus whispered as Smolder waded through the water.
"Not terrible. This coming from a cold blooded reptile." She glanced back. "Leave the boots, we need to walk softly from here on out."
Ocellus nodded and set down her boots. She then transformed into a large carp and swam up next to Smolder who glared at her. "Lucky..."
The changedling blushed and quickly swam to the shore, transforming back once she reached the edge. To Smolder's surprise, she transformed back a bit early and managed to soak the lower part of her jumpsuit. Ocellus winced at the error, now dripping wet like her friend.
Once both were on the shore, they took stock in there surroundings. Smolder did her best to shake some of the water loose. They appeared to be in the large garden portion with some statues placed in seemingly random area's. Ocellus stopped and stretched out for a moment. They seemed safe for the moment. That is, till the sound of talking drew there attention. And it was getting closer. With very few options, Smolder quickly noticed a tree and pointed to it. "This way." Both quickly climbed up, Ocellus changing into a squirrel to get up decently high before changing back and reaching out to help Smolder up. "Buck... We need to be careful." Ocellus whispered. "Look for some place to move to because we are sitting ducks right here!"
Smolder frantically looked around and noticed she was fairly close to a large well cut bush, part of some sort of hedge maze perhaps? "Aim for the bush." She said while whispering as loud as she dared.
"Really? The bush?" Ocellus said, already knowing there were going to be some consequences to this.
"Agh!" Came a voice from below.
"What is it?"
"Something just dripped on me."
"Was it a bird?"
"Hang on, I got my flashlight here."
Bush is was.
The two glanced at each other. There wasn't any time to really think about it. They jumped and hoped the bush was enough to cushion there fall. It was a pretty tall bush. There was a soft brushing noise as the two landed inside it, the leaves and branches breaking there fall.
"Guess it was a bird. Think I just saw it take off... Gonna have to get that cleaned up soon."
"You'd think being part bird, they would be nicer to you."
"Nope, distant ancestry means nothing to these creatures it seems."
Ocellus scrunched up her face. "Wait a minute... Was that...?" They heard their voices disappear in the opposite direction and both let out a sigh of relief. The relief did not last though as the two quickly realized they were stuck. The branches had entangled themselves around them well. Smolder grunted in annoyance as she fought to free herself. Ocellus thought about changing into something small but was worried about her magic mixing with too many elements. She was going to have to work her way out just like Smolder.
After a bit of wrestling, the two managed to get free, falling right into a patch of flowers.
With a small thump, the two waited a minute before getting up, hoping they hadn't been heard. Smolder glanced down and groaned, "Great..."
The bush had not been kind. Holes permeated her legs, thankfully nothing broke the skin though. Dragon strength at its finest. She also had a large chunk of her right sleeve missing just below the elbow. Also her wings were now free, the back having been torn just enough for her wings to slip through. Smolder almost considered to be a blessing at this point. Being so tightly squished against her back was starting to cause them to go numb.
Ocellus had lost her beanie, right glove and had a large hole over her shoulder region. But thankfully she was mostly unharmed. Smolder wanted comment on just how she managed to get out of there so well off compared to her but as soon as her eyes fell on her friend, something just caused all her words to be be lost. She grunted instead.
Both soon locked eyes and winced at their appearance, hoping this would not become a trend for the evening.
Up ahead of them, sat a white square marble gazebo with a pool in the middle. As the two creatures neared, they could see long bodied Dragons in different posses on the top of the marble pillars, some gargoyle statues overlooking the pool as well. The sound of footsteps approaching caused them to jump. They glanced at each other, Smolder reached out and held her friend tight as she took off towards one of the statues over looking the pool. Ocellus gave a silent thanks as she quickly moved behind one statue and Smolder another. Ocellus blinked in surprise as Luna came into view.
She was wearing a blue and black almost see through dress. Sweat began to drip down the side of her face; she was incredible. A toned body with D cup breasts and a lovely curved ass. The moon practically x-rayed her body, making the dress seem almost translucent. The only part of her body was covered was by thigh high stockings and black slippers. She seemed to be in deep thought, occasionally sipping on her glass as she looked around at nothing in particular. Her eyes darted over to the pool briefly before smiling. Her horn lit up as she downed the last bit of her wine, only for it to fill up all over again as the glow from her horn disappeared again.
As she walked away, Ocellus realized something was off. She tried to move only to realize that her sleeve had somehow gotten caught on one of the gargoyle's horns. It seemed to have gotten caught on the hole near her shoulder, but she couldn't figure out how. Worst, it seemed to have hooked itself inside her jumpsuit.
"Smolder!" She whispered. "I'm stuck."
Smolder positioned herself so that she could try and glide over. Ocellus was about to try and make some room when she lost her grip. Unable to catch herself in time, she soon found herself dangling from the statue. Smolder reached out. She had only a few seconds to react before the sleeve, unable to support her weight, came loose.
Rip!
Ocellus feel into the pool, no time for her to even transform. Ocellus barely able to process anything as it all happened so fast. One second she was sitting on the statue, the next she was falling into the water.
Smolder quickly glided down, hoping that her friend was alright.
Ocellus soon emerged from the pool, coughing as she struggled to the side. Smolder bent down and helped her out as Ocellus sputtered and shook. "That... Pool... Is really cold!"
"You alright? That was a pretty nasty fall."
Ocellus nodded. "Yeah, just a little shocked is all. The pool helped to cushion me."
Smolder smirked. "Well its a good thing your body is alright, cause your jumpsuit sure as heck isn't."
Ocellus blinked and examined herself. Her entire right sleeve was gone, as was a chunk of it around her shoulder. Her right breast was just barely being contained within what remained of the right side of her jumpsuit. The zipper also seemed to have broken off, causing a bit of cleavage to be shown. Her right wing was now free.
Ocellus groaned. "Fantastic. We haven't even made it to the castle yet and already things are going wrong."
The changedling transformed herself into a snake and pointed at herself with her tail. "Mind running your claws through me real quick?"
Smolder nodded and picked up Ocellus. She proceeded to lightly run her palms from her friends tail to head, effectively drying her off by quickly pushing the water off her scaly hide.
"Ah, thanks." She glanced over, spotting a wall nearby with a balcony two stories up. She thought for a moment before turning to Smolder. "Hey, lets fly to that balcony. I can do some recon from there."
Smolder glanced up at the balcony and nodded. She careful put Ocellus on her shoulder and jogged over to the wall. She then carefully took off, almost slowly hovering as she inched her way upwards, hoping that no one would notice her.
Once she was close enough to the railing, she stopped and held onto it, making sure there wasn't anyone there as she scanned the area. Ocellus casually slithered off of her. As soon as her body touched the railing, a lamp next to them suddenly glowed a bright green.
Smolder winced at the bright light while Ocellus suddenly changed back. The green glow of the lantern seemed to envelope her body. She wobbled, now standing on the railing in two legged form. The glow soon vanished, only to be replaced with an almost banshee like wail.
"Smolder... Something's wrong. I feel off and my wings aren't..."
She was unable to finish the sentence as her balance was lost. She tumbled over the edge. Smolder reached out. "Ocellus!"
The orange Dragon let go of the railing and leaped for her friend. She beat her wings hard and grabbed onto her. She then turned her body around so that she could could both cushion the fall and protect her as a rose bush soon enveloped the two.
Ocellus opened her eyes after a few seconds. She could feel Smolder holding her tight. She wanted to get off of her, make sure she was alright, but something told her to stay still. That reason came very quickly as the sound of beating wings could be heard just above her.
"Ugh. Not again."
There was no denying it this time. That voice. It belonged to...
"Gallus, don't tell me, another false alarm?"
The second voice was coming from nearby. It also sounded familiar. He had to be standing only 1 or 2 steps from them, calling up to Gallus from below.
"Yeah, I don't get why they have these things anymore Sandbar! Chrysalis is stuck in stone and the Changedlings are on our side. Even if there are any Changelings left, doubt they'd come to Canterlot of all places. So why do they keep Changeling detectors around here!"
Smolder blinked as she locked eyes with Ocellus. "What are they doing here? Since when did they become guards!?"
"I don't know. Remind me to ask them about it later!"
There was a sound of movement nearby. "Huh? You say something Gallus?"
Ocellus covered her mouth and flattened herself best she could against Smolder. Her breasts were squishing hard against her friend, making her blush and fight against some questionable thoughts that needed to be pushed back for now.
"Just saying we need to get Princess Twilight to disable these things is all! This is the third time this old thing has gone off tonight."
There was the sound of beating wings as Gallus seemed much closer. "Come on, we might be able to catch her before she joins the party tonight. Otherwise we'll have to wait a few more days before we can get a message to her. You know how everyone that attends that party seems to shut themselves off afterwards."
"Right... Ever wonder what goes on in those parties?"
"Well yeah, I mean, have you see the clean up crew afterwards? Must be wild."
Ocellus waited until the voices of her friends could no longer be heard before attempting to move again. Her face felt redder than ever though, as her own body was pushing against her friend, mixed with only the sounds of their steady breathing... Not to mention... That warm Dragon body...
Ocellus mentally slapped herself as she rose slightly from her hiding place, being careful not to catch on any of the thorns. "I think the coast is clear. Are you alright?"
Smolder let out a soft whistle. "Fine. Actually I barely felt that. Guess this Dragon is stronger than she thought. Though..."
Ocellus moved to get off of her, now noticing that her friend was completely caught deep within the thorn bushes clutches. "Oh, here let me see if I can help."
She stood up and off to the side, again trying to be careful of the thorns. Once her feet touched the grass, she stood there and concentrated on turning into a pair of hedge clippers... Only to realize that nothing was happening.
"Oh... No... I think that lantern just disrupted my magic. I am not going to be able to fly or transform for awhile!" She looked around frantically before turning back to Smolder. "I'm gonna be sort of useless going forward." The changedling slouched over, looking defeated and slightly worried.
Smolder wanted to give some words of encouragement but just could find the words. After moment of silence, she just simply muttered. "Don't say that." She tried to reach out but the thorns held her back. She grunted in annoyance. "Listen, I still need your help and it just won't be worth it in the end if you aren't there."
Ocellus blushed as she perked up slightly. "Oh, thanks Smolder... I... Thankyou... Hang on, let's see if maybe I can just pull you out."
Smolder winced. "Its not gonna be pretty, but it sure beats trying to burn my way out. Would rather not risk setting the garden on fire."
She reached up, already hearing ripping sounds just from moving her arm alone. Ocellus grasped her arm tightly. "Ready?"
"Ready..."
Ocellus pulled with everything she had. There was loud ripping noises as Smolder tried to push with her wings. "Grr... Almost!"
Ocellus grunted and yanked with everything she had. She suddenly felt a give as Smolder shot up the rest of the way. The two tumbled over onto the grass. Both breathing heavily as Ocellus turned to look at her friend. "Ah... Oh... That did not sound good."
Smolder slowly got up and glanced down at herself. She wasn't kidding.
Her entire top half of her jumpsuit had been pulled back and torn, with the zipper apparently having broken off just bellow her stomach. There was just some frayed cloth above that. Arms and breasts were now bare.
Ocellus licked her lips to keep from drooling. Her friends sweat covered half naked body was really hard to look away from.
"So... Uh... Now what?" Smolder asked as she sighed in annoyance.
It took Ocellus a few seconds before her brain was able to process the question. A few seconds more before she could answer. "Oh... Right." She wiped some drool from her mouth. "I saw the door open on the balcony. We should be able to get in through there."
Smolder nodded and walked over, she held out her arms. "So I guess I will have to carry you up. Hold on tightly, gotta take this slow just to be on the safe side."
Ocellus glanced down at Smolders arms and felt her body go about as warm as her face. Trying to be cool about it, she nodded. But once Smolder actually bent down, picking her up bridle style, did her body really kick into hyper drive. Was Smolder warmer than before? She couldn't tell, but there was a distant familiar scent that had her magic not been messed with, she was sure she would be able to better pick up on. But one thing was for sure, her own body was sending all sorts of scents out about how it felt about all this.
Feeling her friends breasts push against her arm, she had to concentrate hard to not start swooning a bit. There was definitely some feelings bubbling up that she was going to have to come to terms with when this was all over. Soon she felt Smolder setting her down next to the open door. Despite taking it slow, Ocellus felt like it had only been seconds. Was her mind really going crazy that much already? The changedling took a deep breath, trying to calm her heart that was beating faster than it ever had.
Ocellus gave a nod of thanks before quickly ducking through the door. She hoped her warm face was well hidden in the dim lighting. She could also feel a warm sensation down south. She ran hand lightly over the area, glad to see that it wasn't too noticeable yet. She glanced up, taking in her surroundings.
Inside was a long stretching hallway. Ocellus cocked her head slightly, her mind trying to focus again. "Lets go left. I think I hear music down that way."
Bump. Bump. Bump. Bump.
"Also sounds like guards that way... Are heading this way."
Ocellus quickly grabbed Smolder's claw without thinking. "This way, we'll circle back around!" She spoke in her loudest whisper.
Smolder felt her face heat up slightly as Ocellus lead the two back down the hallway, just as she was about to turn a corner, she felt something soft yet still very firm run into her.
"Oof." She said as she was knocked onto her ass. Trying to blink the stars from her eyes, Ocellus tried to get her bearings, only to be feel Smolder and someone else pull her into a nearby closet. They managed to close the door, just in time to hear the guards stomping get nearer. However, it seemed they hadn't spotted them, as their strong steps soon faded around the corner.
Ocellus rubbed her eyes while Smolder let out a small chuckle. "Well. Didn't expect to see you here. Though at the same time, I am not all that surprised."
Ocellus blinked, now able to make out a thin outline of a hippogryph. To be exact, a certain pink one.
"Silverstream?"
Silverstream grinned in the dim light. "Oh my gosh. I knew both would be here but I did not expect to bump into you like this!"
Ocellus blinked again as her eyes adjusted. Once her eyes were able to better see her friends form, her face felt hot again. Also some more feelings down south.
Silverstream was standing there with hardly anything on. Just a broken tank top that had been torn to ribbons to the point that only her left breast was covered and a thin thread looped under her other breast, barely holding the thing together. She was also wearing a thong that looked like it could come apart at any moment.
"I must say you two. You sure seem to have an interesting choice in clothing. Then again, our woman's line back home consisted of seaweed and shells for a long while, so I suppose I don't have room to talk."
Ocellus wiped her mouth, realizing she was drooling slightly again. "What... What happened to you?!"
Silverstream put a talon up to her beak. "Well, to be honest, not sure. Seems that everything has conspired against me to get naked this evening."
Smolder nodded and put her arm around Ocellus, who felt her heart rate soar at the touch. "I get what you mean, Ocellus and I have managed to fall into the same boat. If an didn't know any better, I'd swear this is more than a coincidence."
Silverstream nodded. "I think we'll be getting to the bottom of this soon. I'll meet you two at the party, but first, I need to see if I can find something to wear. No use showing up like this."
Ocellus, managing to kick her brain back into high gear, watched as Silverstream opened the closet door and began jogging down the hallway. "Wait, did she say she was actually going to GO to the party?! We're just here for a quick peak to find out what's going on. She is going to get in so much trouble!"
Smolder sighed. "Nothing to we can do to stop her, she's already gone. Let's just head over and finally put this mystery to rest so we can end this crazy night."
Ocellus nodded. "Yeah, let's head back down towards where we heard the music."
As the two began to sneak down, they began to hear voices behind them. Smolder quickly looked behind her and then around the hallway. They were right next to a large looking door. The closet was too far back now and voices were getting nearer. "In here." She said in a low voice.
Ocellus followed her through the large door and immediately realized exactly where they were. Inside was a large bed, balcony, blue colored wardrobe and just off to the left, an extremely nice looking bathroom. Stars and moons seemed to be the theme on just about everything.
"Princess Luna... This is her room!"
The sounds of the voices outside neared. Ocellus jogged over to the wardrobe nearby and opened it. It was going to be a tight squeeze but both her and Smolder should be able to hide there. "Come on." She motioned for her friend.
Smolder nodded and soon the two were pressed up against each other as Smolder shut the door with her tail. There was the sound of the main door opening within seconds of Smolder closing the wardrobe shut.
"Oh, this is getting interesting, are you sure you want to be here?"
Ocellus recognized that voice. The Changedlings had done everything they could to patch things up with a certain monarch, more than Celestia and Luna. Not to mention, she had been known to stop by on occasion for special meetings with King Thorax. "Princess Cadence..."
There was a pause and a soft but commanding voice answered. "Yes, just need to give things a bit more of a push. I know this is your territory, but I love seeing these things kick off just as much as you do."
There was a pause. "Understandable. Not going to lie, there is a bit of a thrill in it, Luna."
Smolder felt Ocellus tense up a bit against her. The movement caused her breasts to grind a bit against her own. She had to stifle a soft moan.
"So, shall we continue with our wine out on the balcony as we watch things unfold?"
"Mmm... Lets."
Smolder tried to shift to a better spot, her body was getting warmer than normal... And for a Dragon, that is saying something. Ocellus found her breathing becoming shallow as Smolder's body only managed to rub against her, harder.
Their lips were so close, their eyes locked on each other. Ocellus couldn't take it anymore. She felt like she was drowning in a sea of love and lust. It was practically pouring off of her friend at this point. The scent no longer any mystery to her. She found her arms moving up, embracing her friend and shoving her lips forward.
Smolder was taking aback for a second as Ocellus' lips met hers, but soon she deepened the kiss. So glad to finally just go with it. Their minds lost in each others grasp as the two felt fireworks going off in their minds. The two soon broke from each other, staring at one other as their breathing remained haggard.
"I..." Smolder was at a loss for words.
Ocellus shook her head. "You don't have to say anything. I think we both know how we feel about each other at this point."
Her hand began to travel downwards, slipping between the remaining fabric that held onto Smolder, as her hand soon fond its prize. She smiled as she slowly ran a finger over the wet area between her friends legs. "I see I wasn't the only one struggling down here."
Smolder gave a low moan as Ocellus began to insert her middle finger. Then her index finger followed. She pumped the two fingers in and out slowly, feeling her friends sex grow warmer and wetter by the second. Her own claws found their way to her friends right breast. Pushing what little cloth remained aside as she began to squeeze the wonderful melon. Her other claw began to grip the fabric between her friends legs, teasing the area.
Just as she was about to take it up a notch, Smolder shifted back and gave a very loud moan.
This caused her to lose her footing and stumble back, the door opening in the process. Ocellus managed to reach out and catch her friend but by this point, there was no saving the fact that the doors were open. And Luna and Cadence were casually standing outside of it.
Smolder felt her heart drop while Ocellus removed her fingers, putting them behind her back. "Uh... Hi... I bet you are wondering what we are doing in your wardrobe Princess Luna. Well..."
She searched for an excuse but couldn't find one. She glanced up at her friend only to see that she too was unable to form anything useful. Then she remembered she was half naked and tried to cover herself. This only made things even more awkward.
The two princess glanced at each other and smiled. A chuckle escaping both of them.
Cadence held out her hand. "Please, relax. You two aren't in any trouble. In fact, we've known you have been here for some time."
Both creatures glanced at each other and then back. "What?"
Ocellus blinked as her eyes began to better focus on the two Princesses standing in front of them and felt some heat return to her cheeks. They were both standing there in see through night gowns that left nothing to the imagination. Their hour glass figures could only come from that of an alicorn.
Cadence casually took a sip of her wine and continued. "In order to get into this party, Luna and Celestia devised a sort of test. Can't let just anyone join in after all. They have to first be recommended. From there, its all about whether or not the party in mind is willing to work to get themselves inside."
Luna smiled. "We have been watching you from the moment you left Dragon Lord Ember's suite. Making sure you are safe but also making sure things aren't too easy for you."
Cadence gestured to the door. "Follow us. I am sure you are both dying to know what goes on here."
The two creatures glanced at each other in bewilderment but soon followed. "Um, Princess' aren't you two at little... Underdressed for a party?"
Cadence let out a chuckle. "To be honest, I'd say we are over dressed. Both of you will understand what I mean in a moment."
The two princesses led them out of the room and down a long hallway, eventually stopping at a set of double doors. Here, the sound of music, Trance by sounds the beats being played, could be heard. As Luna opened it up, Ocellus and Smolder felt their jaws hit the floor.
Inside was a large room with pillows set about. A large hot tub sat in the corner while DJ-Pon3 played on a small sound stage, her breasts out for all to see as she shook with the beat of the music. Ocellus recognized a lot of higher nobility and heroes appeared to be locked in various sexual positions or at the very least, grinding against each other to the sounds of the music. For example: she could see her principle, Starlight, currently scissoring Princess Twilight.
Meanwhile, Smolder looked on in shock as her Dragon Lord was currently being spit roasted between Spike and Professor Fluttershy who seemed to be using a strap-on. The rest of the her professors seemed to be enjoying each others company within a large pile of pillows.
Both then turned and watched as Princess Celestia grinded her naked sweat covered body against a dark red also naked unicorn that seemed to have had her horn broken. Ocellus wracked her mind, she remembered seeing her during the great battle several years ago. Tempest or something close to that.
Her eyes were soon pulled away at the sounds of her King. She looked for him and spotted him getting a blow job from some royal guard she did not recognize. It was a mind bender to be sure. Having never seen him like this. There were a few others there she did not recognize but could only assume they had some real importance there.
Luna held out her hand. "This is it. We usually start with a big feast then followed by debauchery like this. It allows us to release any pent up feelings all in one night as we usually have to be so formal and repressed at times. This is the one night we can let our manes down and enjoy the company of another or more than one in some cases, pointing back to Ember.
Cadence placed a hand on Ocellus' shoulder. "But I have a feeling all you two want to do is enjoy each other's company. We have a shower just past that door for those who prefer a more quiet setting." Cadence pointed at a door with rain droplets on it.
Smolder glanced at Ocellus and grinned before grabbing her new lovers arm and leading her to the door. Cadence smiled back at Luna as they watched the two young love birds disappear into the room. Though the music in the room was loud, she could still making out some muffled moaning sounds that came from there. The excited spark of new found love was the kind of things she lived for.
Luna took one last sip of her wine. "Shall we go and enjoy each others company with the others?"
Cadence grinned. "I think its time we break out the toys and see who wants to join in."
As Luna and Cadence began to briskly walk towards the center of the room, Smolder and Ocellus were currently having the moment of their lives.
Water pelted their now naked bodies as Ocellus lovingly kissed Smolder, her hands traveling over her lovers body as the two moaned into each other's mouths. Smolder felt a hand squeezing her breast while Ocellus fingers dug themselves deep into her sex, her tail twitching sporadically. Warm water pelted Ocellus' body, causing her hands to constantly travel over ever area she could find.
Her claws soon find their way to her ass and giving her cheeks a rough squeeze. She could feel Ocellus moan into her mouth and that only seemed to turn her on more.
The Changedling soon broke from the kiss removing her hand but keeping it latched to her friends wonderful behind. She tried to catch her breath but found her leg grinding against her lover's sex. Smolder let out a few grunts as she moved to grind deeper, feeling her body set itself afire.
"You know... Ah! The party was interesting to find out about, but I think I am way more happy... Mm! To find out that you actually have the HA-hots for me." Smolder said between gasps.
Ocellus nibbled the shoulder of her lover for a few seconds. "Mmm, I think I prefer this as well." They began to sink to the floor, there legs crossing as the two began to grind each others sex. There movements starting slow, allowing them time to bask in each other's pleasure. There moans starting to find a rhythm as the water continued to pour over them, their own voices soon drowning out the sounds of the water around them.
But soon, they began to grow sporadic. Grinding and slamming themselves into one another. Moaning to their hearts content as an orgasm soon escaped them, leaving them to cry out in passion.
"Smolder!"
"C-Celly!"
The two let out a gasp before falling back, Smolder's back hitting a the wall as Ocellus laid back against the floor. The water fell on the two, trying to catch their breath, they glanced back at one another. Ocellus moved and worked her way over until she was soon laying on top Smolder, her eyes locked as she basked in her warmth. Now on top of her, her breasts smooshing against her now close lover, while the warm water pelted her back.
"What a night." Ocellus said with a chuckle.
Smolder nodded. "It has been a crazy night, huh."
Ocellus suddenly cocked her head slightly. "Wait, whatever happened to Silverstream? Wasn't she trying to get into this party as well?"
Cadence suddenly entered, causing the two lovers to jump slightly.
"Sorry, didn't mean to interrupt. But you wouldn't happen to know something about a pink hypogryph, would you?"
Ocellus was the first to speak up. "Uh, yeah. That would be Silverstream. Did she try to crash the party?"
Cadence smiled and shook her head. "No, I was just curious. She seems to have found another means to occupy herself and I must admit, I would not mind seeing her join these festivities with a spirit like hers."
Smolder cocked her head slightly. "What is she doing right now?"
Cadence smile turned to a grin. "Currently enjoying the company of our newest recruits."
Smolder and Ocellus looked at each other for a moment before looking back. "What exactly do you mean by that?" They said in unison.

"I gotta say Sandbar, this might be the best thing she has ever come up with. I mean, even if we can't make it in, doesn't mean we can't have a party of our own."
Sandbar nodded, wiping a bit of sweat from his brow before fist bumping his friend. "Totally makes up for her sneaking in here as well. I think we can let her off with just a warning this time."
The two glanced down, their armor currently off as the two had taken up residence within Silverstream. Gallus currently occupying her mouth, currently slamming himself in deep, with Sandbar in the back pounding her ass like there was no tomorrow. Silverstream's body was now completely naked as she did her best to work in tandem with them. Sweat and fluids pouring from her body as she enjoyed ride.
Gallus put a hand on her head. "Thanks for taking a load off for us. You're the best."
Silverstream slowly raised up her claw, giving a thumbs up excitedly before going back to her task. Somehow she had a feeling that this would get her into the next party. She just wasn't quite sure exactly how.
