A natural understanding
Previous ChapterAfter his emotional breakdown, P-21 was brought back into the house by his friends, still crying. “I…I can’t believe she’s g-gone…” He sobbed through his tears.
“P-21, please…” Blackjack’s voice sounded in his ears, sounding worried. “Try to calm down."
With tear-filled eyes, the stallion looked up to her. “How? I…I felt it. She’s hurt…”
In response, the mare took a deep breath, knowing this wasn’t easy. “But that means she is still alive.”
“B-but what she succumbs to her injuries? Or gets handicapped for the rest of her life?” The stallion trembled, only to be pulled into a hug by the unicorn.
I know we might have to fear the worst, but we got to stay positive.” Blackjack smiled weakly.
“Maybe…maybe I just overreacted in my worry.” The lungs of the stallion drew in a deep breath.
“I can understand your worry, P-21. If you need anything, just tell me.”
“Of course. Thanks.” He smiled.
“You’re welcome.”
As the mare walked out, the stallion let out a sigh, lying down again, trying to think. Could his dream mean something? After all, there were myths of humans, hinting they could exist.
But then again, even if they existed, where should be searched if there was a lead? It was said humans had many time periods and different cultures.
Still…it could be worth a try he realized.
But he would have to wait until Lacunae would return from her current search. So, he spent his time helping out in the Chapel as good as he could, also appreciating the attempts of the residents to cheer him up and giving him hope.
It also helped to get his mind clear a bit.
He lost track of time until Blackjack called him to eat something. “If you don’t mind me telling, I had an odd dream today.” His friends shook their heads to show they were okay with it and he told them what he had dreamed, earing surprised expressions.
“It…it is strange with what things our minds can come up in our sleep, isn’t it?” Morning Glory spoke up first.
“Yeah. But do you think mean something?” The stallion asked into the around, looking at the Alicorn.
“Well, it could be worth a try. Maybe it was a hint for you, for us all.” Lacunae suspected.
It might have been just a possible hint, but it was a hint after all, and that gave the father some hope. They might have finally a lead, a way to find his lost daughter.
The next day was rather quiet, not much was happening until it was around noon and time for lunch.
“I have good news!” Lacunae exclaimed just as P-21 had finished his meal. “I think I have found her.”
“R-really?” The stallion couldn’t believe what he had heard, with his friend nodding.
“Yes. Turns out, she landed indeed in the human world and from what my tracking spell told me, she appears to be safe and sound.”
Slowly, his eyes sparkled in joy. “Then what are we waiting for?”
In return, the white unicorn held up a hoof. “Let me make sure Boo and Rampage are under control.”
“Of course.”
After a few minutes, the mare returned and the Alicorn lit up her horn and he closed his eyes from the flash.
P-21 felt a bit dazed as he came back to his sense, looking around to see they were in a residential area, with his Alicorn friend pointing towards one of the houses.
Tensed, he walked towards it, knocking on the door. A human female with brown hair and eyes, and a male with brown hair and blue eyes, both looked at him in surprise.
“Sorry to bother you, but we are looking for my daughter, is she here?” The stallion asked with concern, yet hope.
Both humans shook their heads and closed their eyes, apparently trying to understand if they saw it right before the man spoke up, “Yes, she’s here.” He said before calling out, “Scotch Tape, someone wants to see you!”
The group of ponies got led inside, taking nod of other humans as well as a green uniform stallion with green, coat, blue eyes and blond mane, all looked surprised before P-21’s eyes fell on his daughter, who was happy to see him.
“Daddy!”
“Scotch Tape! You’re okay!” The daughter and father hugged each other with tears of joy, while the others smiled happily at them.
After a short moment, her father gently broke it. “Now, you surely have a lot to tell, my dear.”
“Yeah, but’s it’s a long story.” She explained.
“If you allow me Scotch Tape, I could use a spell that makes things simpler.” The Alicorn suggested, the filly nodded and the Alicorn touched Scotch Tape’s forehead with its white glowing horn. Her father and friends could see in a dream-like sequence what the foal had experienced.
“Oh my… You truly went through a lot, Scotch Tape, but I’m proud of you. I thank you for keeping my daughter safe, you all have my thanks.” Her father was grateful before noticing something. “How rude of me, I’m P-21, and those are Blackjack, Morning Glory and Lacunae.” He introduced himself and his friends.
“Pleasure, your daughter is quite brave for her age.” Fletcher replied, P-21 looked at him in confusion.
“You look familiar…”
“You seem to confound me with somepony else.” The Eternal Knight cut him off.
“Most likely, you look like somepony I saw in a dream. Coincidence I guess.”
“Maybe.”
“We still have to celebrate your Cutie Mark, Scotch Tape.” Her father pointed out and her expression became unsure.
“I and my friends had planned a sleepover this evening, can I still do it with my friends?”
“Of course, my dear. We would then come back tomorrow.” He replied smiling.
Chung shrugged. “I have the day off, so, want to join me and the others for a round of cards, Fletcher?”
“Sure, why not?”
Suddenly, Kate wavered slightly, holding her head. “What’s wrong, mom?” Amy asked concerned.
“Just a slight headache, sweetie. Might have to lie down a bit.”
“Then, mind if I watch over you?” P-21 offered and the mother smiled weakly.
“It’s a kind offer but you don’t have to.”
“Please, it would be the least I could do, given how you took care of my daughter.” He countered with a smile of his own.
“Alright then. I see you late, sweetie.” Kate said to her daughter, who waved, with the Alicorn and 2 mares smiling proudly at the stallion as everyone went their separate ways.
As Kate laid down on the couch, P-21 stayed quiet as to not disturb her, reading a book to pass the time, yet checked regularly on her. Somehow, he couldn’t help but smile to see that she had dozen off peacefully.
Around an hour later, he decided to check again, bringing a water bottle with him. Kate stirred in her nap, waking up yawing. “Ah, thank you.”
“You’re welcome.” He replied as she took a sip, letting out a relieved sigh after it.
“Much better. Now, let me make dinner.”
“After you.”
Only minutes later, a delicious smell entered his nose and he walked into the kitchen, smiling to see she was making pancakes.
The stallion licked his lips eagerly before they both dished in. While enjoying it, Kate let out a sigh and her guest quickly figured out why.
“You’re missing him, don’t you?”
“Yes. It feels so…empty without him.” Kate admitted with a sad voice. “He and I went through so much, I can’t believe that he didn’t made it through this…”
“I can understand. Duct Tape, she was a good mare, treating me well every time we meet. She wanted nothing more than for me and Scotch to have a good life, a family life.” Often, I wonder what had happened if she hadn’t died, if she would have joined us on our journey and new home.” He told with equal sadness, lowering his head.
“You and me both. During the invasion, I heard that captured US soldiers were usually admitted into labor camps and that those who escaped confinement either attempted to blend in with the rest of the NKFOA or joined the Resistance. At first, I hoped he had escaped, knowing that labor was a death sentence…” She sighed again.
“But, now that I think of it, Death might have been his salvation from a far worse fate.”
“We can’t change what happened, Kate. But, they will always be alive in our hearts.” P-21 pointed out.
“Yes, it’s just hard to overcome.”
They both then brushed their teeth and prepared to go to bed. “May I?” The stallion asked politely, holding the door open.
“Quite the gentleman I see.” She smiled and walked into the bedroom.
As P-21 was about to head towards the bedroom, his ears twitched to hear a sign and he turned around. “Something wrong?”
“N-no, I am fine.” Kate replied rather hastily, making the stallion slightly worried.
“You can tell me, Kate.” He replied in a calming voice and she looked down, blushing slightly.
“I-I shouldn’t, I mean you…are…”
It clicked in his head, his eyes slightly widening. “You want to mate?”
Her cheeks went red even more, almost like a tomato as she looked into his eyes. “Y-yes, It’s been so long…but you were a breeder, I shouldn’t.”
This statement took the stallion totally by surprise, but he slowly started to smile weakly. “Kate, I appreciate your caring but you don’t have to feel bad. I was a breeder, yes but to be honest, I want to enjoy myself, instead of being used. Plus you are tensed, let me help you.”
He stepped closer and started to massage her shoulders.
A relaxing moan left her mouth. “Where did you learn this?”
“Just picked up a few teachings here and there whenever I got some rest.” He explained, “And it would only be fair that I help you, as you helped my daughter.”
Both looked into each other’s eyes. He showed complete caring, earning her trust and she gave a nod. “Okay.”
Having her permission, the stallion started to undress her, seeing that Kate was C-cup in size, her build average, nothing special But it still excited him, feeling his chock escaping out of his prison, throbbing.
“Oh my…” Kate gasped at the size.
“I had to go through some…modifications back home.” P21 mumbled with a nervous chuckle, then asked, “Are you ready?”
She nodded in return, lying down on the bed and he started to penetrate her. Kate shuddered as his flared head pushed into her slowly, slipping inside, easily lubricated with his copious fluids, musky pre-spunk lubricating her passage until his entire length was in her.
The earth pony started to slowly thrust in and out. Kate let out a grunt as she got painfully stretched apart, as her stomach distended to accommodate the size. Still, the pain slowly died away and was replaced with pleasure.
A cry of pleasure escaped the woman “Yes! More!” Kate couldn’t remember the last time she had have sex with her husband but she had missed this wonderful feeling. Besides, she couldn’t get pregnant by him anyway.
P-21 enjoyed this moment himself very much, not able to remember when he enjoyed himself the last time so much.
Twitching, enjoying every second, Kate could feel sweat run down her body but she didn’t care as she was lost in a world of bliss, panting heavily, bucking her hips, noticing how the stallion slowly increased in speed.
Seeing how the woman was twitching and spasmed, made the stallion know she was getting close, he could feel his orgasm approaching as well, moaning in pleasure.
Waves of sexual energy kept both going, their moaning becoming louder and more frequent the closer they got to their peak.
Finally, Kate could feel he was ready to cum. His thrusts became shorter and faster and just as she couldn’t take it anymore, she screamed as she climaxed.
Her partner did as well as he came, cum gushed from his equine cock, filling her womb and flowing from her vagina in a great torrent, causing her eyes to roll back, despite her belly swelling up, also clamping down on him.
Panting in exhaustion, the stallion pulled out, smiling at her, with Kate returning it. “That was great…”
Using their last strength, they got comfortable, falling asleep as they hugged each other unintentionally with smiles.
A few weeks later, Kate took notice that her belly was larger than it used to be. At first, she didn’t thought much of it, but then, she felt sick in the early mornings, being familiar with this experience from years ago when she was…pregnant…with Amy at the time.
A feeling of unease and fear overcame her as she took a pregnancy test to be completely sure. Her eyes went wide to see it was positive.
A knock on the bathroom door tore her out. “Kate, are you alright?” It was Chung, sounding concerned.
“I am okay…but I have something to tell you and the others.” She replied fearfully as she came out, entering the living room, where the others waited
“So, what it is?”
The woman took a deep breath. “I am…pre-pregnant,” she stammered, “And P-21 is the father…”
“What?” all eyes of her friends went wide in shock.
“Y-yes. I should have known better…” Kate lowered her head “But my libido got the better of me…”
Careful of her belly, the Korean wrapped his arms around her. “Kate, you are not to blame, either is he, you just wanted relief. Of course, since P-21 was a pony, we don’t know if the offspring would be human but I am here for you. That’s what friends are for.”
“So are we.” The others added with smiles, Amy smiled even bigger.
“And it would be fun to have a sibling. Plus, Scotch Tape would be then my actual sister.”
This raised hope in the woman, knowing they would get through this together.
As time passed, Kate could feel the sensation of motherhood again, rubbing with Amy a hand over her belly, with the child kicking in return. She almost forgot the lovely feeling of anticipation, also her breasts were leaking milk.
Chung, on the other hand, couldn’t help but find her more attractive with a pregnant belly.
Yet, eventually, it was time and her water broke, with Rhianna and Elizabeth helping with the birth.
Kate screamed in pain as she pushed, having forgotten how painful it was when she gave birth to Amy all those years ago, but appreciating the soothing voices of her 2 friends.
She let out a loud scream, which was followed by a younger one.
“Congratulations, it’s a boy.” Rhianna announced happily, giving the newborn to his mother.
He had his mother’s hair but the stallion’s eye color.
“Jack.” Kate cried tiers of joy, despite being exhausted, “Welcome to the world.”
The others smiled happily, leaving her alone for rest, yet were surprised to see a group of ponies coming towards them as they got outside.
“Scotch Tape?” Alex asked surprised and she nodded.
“Yes, I thought I visit you.” She replied and the children did a group hug. “Is Kate?”
“In the hospital, resting. Don’t worry, she isn’t hurt, just exhausted.” Amy explained and the filly got inside, followed by the rest of the group, the stallion having an expression of unease.
Their eyes went wide upon seeing the Woman with her offspring. “Hey, P-21, nice to see you.” Kate greeted the stallion, who now looked in alert at her friends.
Yet before he could from any explanation, the young Korean calmly raised a hand. “It’s okay you have nothing to fear.. You just wanted to help her.”
Relieved, the stallion, along with his daughter, walked over to the woman, who showed her child to them.
“I named him Jack.”
A tear of joy escaped his eyes as he looked at the baby, who looked happy at him, the other ponies with weak smiles.
It was unexpected, but they would help out as good as they could.
