I've got to say, sleeping in the Crystal Empire certainly is a chill experience... literally. I don't know if being small all of a sudden has reduced my cold resistance, but even the thick blankets they have up here had me shiver through the night as if they weren't there at all.

"Actually, yes, your smaller size has reduced your heat resistance. Though, that's not because of magic or something, but simply how biology works. You know, bigger size, more internal volume, more cells producing heat and so on."

Oh really? Huh, never would have thought.

So, immediately when I woke up the next morning, I immediately stormed out and MADE ALEX GREAT AGAIN. Of course, such a process doesn't go unnoticed by the ponies around me, especially since it was a pretty explosive reaction, literally. Turns out, it isn't just a simple 'poof' and everything's all right. In fact, while there was a 'poof', it could be described more as a 'BOOOM', caused by all that air that got shoved out of place when I suddenly regained my size.

"WHAT THE BUCK WAS THAT?!" Cadence suddenly screamed from her balcony, likely awakened by my eplosive growth.

"Oh, hey, Alex is back to his old size." Twilight remarked as she, too, stepped out onto the balcony, followed by her friends.

"Yep. Turns out, all that air has to go somewhere when I do that. Certainly good to know for later. Who knows how many eardrums I would shatter if I did that in the middle of Canterlot.

In that moment, a letter appeared directly in front of Twilight, bearing the royal seal. "A letter from Princess Celestia!" Twilight said enthusiastically. She cracked the seal, unrolled the scroll and almost immediately dropped her smile. She red through the letter, her face slowly taking on a look of utter shock, until she finally reached the end. She dropped the scroll from her magic and did the stereotypical 'shock-stare', while her friends were asking her, what had happened.

Apparently, there was an incident with a Rock Farm somewhere east of Canterlot, within the Canterlot Mountains. Normally, they would go into a close village every day to buy the day's supplies fresh from one of the stalls. Also, they had scheduled an appointment, where they were to pick up a few farming tools they had bought the day prior. Now, normally one wouldn't think much of it if someone were to be late to something like this. However, these farmers in particular had never deviated from their schedule and appointments even by a minute. Thus, when they didn't show up, the stallion who was to give them their new property went in to investigate... only to never return.

On that note, I find it kinda relieving that these kinda... gullible Ponies even thought about calling upon the authorities before they would go in one after another, until no one was left... Well, not that it would have ade a difference, because the complement of five guards that was sent there first was never seen again either. Thus, Celestia drew upon her trump card and sent the Elements of Harmony, who coincidentally also dragged Equestria's official mascot along. Seriously, it's been a year since I was made the Protector and she still hasn't gotten over her habit to send the Elements...

"Give her some time. She's been sending the elements for, what, 7 years now? You know what they say, old habits die hard."

Yeah, I guess... It's just kinda frustrating to see your work misdirected to someone else, worst of all by the same person who employed me in the first place...

We arrived at the rock farm, or at least what was left of it. The roof of the main house was broken in two places, the water tower was burnt to the ground, ironically enough, and the whole area was shrouded in a sickly sweet stench. We walked over to the house and saw a few splotches of blood sticking to the floor and walls and-

"AAAAAAAH!" Rarity suddenly screamed and we all ran over to her. She stood a few meters away from the hole that looked like it broke into a girl's room and was staring at the ground, screaming and struggling away from something. And when we got there, we could see why. Apparently, whichever being did this didn't get all of it's prey, as there, on the ground, lay a single leg in a small pool of blood. Judging by the size and shape, it was likely the left foreleg of an adolescent Pony, likely a mare, judging by the room I just saw.

While the six were busy emptying their stomachs into the nearby bushes, I walked over to the house again and looked at the holes. I took in every single clue that I could find, including the lack of footprints... well, apart from mine, of course.

"No matter how I look at it, the creature that did this has to be at least my size." I announced to the others, who were still getting over the fact that they've just seem a severed limb.

"I don't know how you can stay calm like this. We've just found a severed foreleg and you just stand there like it's nothing." Twilight complained.

"You seem to forget that I go into the everfree to hunt manticores on a daily basis." I answered flatly. "Also, you will see even more very soon."

"H-how so?" Rarity asked anxiously.

"Do you smell that?" Everyone took a short whiff, before covering their muzzles and gagging from the smell. "Yes, that sickly sweet smell. That's what a decaying body smells like... and it's coming from that barn over there." I gestured over to a large barn. And seriously, it was large. Large enough to comfortably let me stad in there. At least, that's what I'd guess from the outside.

We went over and looked at the building. It seemed to be completely undamaged, apart from a few signs of usage. This was likely where they were storing their Rocks after farming, but now it was apparently used to store something else.

I opened the doors with a claw and immediately, we were assaulted by a wave of foulness and rot, but before anyone of us could complain about it, something else came to assault us as well. It looked like four black wyverns, at least from what skin they had left, which wasn't much. They were definitely undead. Now, I would tell you about the epic battle we had, but the truth is that there was none. One simple swipe of my newly learned light magic was enough to let them crumble to peaces, which was slightly disappointing, to say the least.

Regardless, we made our way to investigate the barn and as soo as we entered -- or rather, as they entered, while I was just holding my head in -- we were rewarded with a new find... and a new wave of nausea for the poor six mares I brought with me.

Well, at least now we know what happened to the five guards and the vendor. Cruel fate for someone who just wanted to sell some goods, I've got to say.

The six bodies were all roughly in the same state. half eaten, half rotten. their bones and their armor were the only things that clearly gave away that these were ponies once.

"We should... we should get them to their families, so they can bury them." Twilight said, already starting to walk away, but I stopped her.

"No, we have to burn them."

The others looked at me, shocked. "B-But why? Shouldn't we give their families a chance to see them off?" Twilight asked.

"What we have seen just now were undead Wyverns. I don't know where they came from, I don't know how they came to be, I just know that ponies or any living beings for that matter, don't rot that fast. So, it's likely that these beasts have left some kind of disease in them and I don't want you to get infected."

Twilight looked away and blushed, likely feeling slightly embarassed that she didn't think of that, as well as feeling flattered because I was worried about her.

"You are right... we can't risk an epidemic to spread from our own desire to bury our dead..." Twilight conceded.

I immediately went to work, coveing the whole barn in my flame, with some light magic mixed into it. After all, I couldn't be sure that these things hadn't laid eggs somewhere in there.... even if it seemed unlikely given their undead state.

After I had made sure that nothing would be left, we made our way to canterlot to give our report. Poor Celestia now has to write six letters to the families of the dead. And yes, six. Even though this is normally only done for fallen guards, she decided that the vendor also deserved to be honoured for his bravery.

Meanwhile, I brought the now mentally scarred mares back home, trying to lift their moods and yet achieving nothing. Rainbow flew off when I passed by her cloud house and Pinkie just vanished somewhere between when we left fluttershy's and when I set down at the orchard. Rarity decided to also leave us there, sying that she could use a bit of walking now, to clear her head a little, so that left only one stop: The Castle.

I set down right in front of it and lowered my wing, so twilight could comfortably get off. Starlight had evidently heard my arrival and opened the door to welcome her mentor as soon as she left my back. However, she quickly noticed that Twilight definitely wasn't in a good mood. She looked at me and within just this look, we both agreed that we had to do something about this.

"Hey Twilight, now that I fit into your Castle, how about you show me your library?" I quickly asked.

Twilight immediately perked up as I voiced my interest in her books, while Starlight gave me a puzzled look. "Wait, you fit into the castle? Did I miss something?"

"Indeed you did. Watch." I said, before I changed to my smaller size again. Immediately, a loud bang rang out, followed by a sudden strong wind.

Yo Navi, is there a way to slow that down? It's kinda painful to the ears always causing a sonic boom when I do that.

"Of course. Just imagine yourself actually growing/shrinking into your new size instead of just popping into it."

Oh... yeah, that makes sense...

"Of course I can give you a tour through the Library!" Twilight chirped, before almost Pinkie-hopping inside. I followed close, saying "Seems like it worked." As I walk past Starlight.

Inside, Twilight led me through the hallways, talking about how she had to draw a map during the first few months she lived in here, because she would constantly get lost. Luckily, by now she knew the Castle through and through by now, so we reached the reading room without incident. There, Twilight and I went through every single book in the room. She told me how she got it and why it stood where it stood and so on. Starlight sat on one of the tables meanwhile, trying to blot out the lecture she undoubtedly had already heard thousands of times.

Knowing how much Twilight loved her books, I kept the conversation going, even after we were done with the last bookshelf she had. I asked, I told, she did the same and so, slowly the events of the day seemed to lose their hold in her mind, until we both just sat there, each with a book in their claws/hooves and reading.

That is, until someone knocked on the door. Starlight got up to see who was there and after a bit of talking with whoever was there, she came back saying: "Hey Twilight, I'm going to help Trixie out a bit. I'll be back in a few hours."

"Yeah, see ya then! And don't forget about those Friendship Lessons!" Twilight replied, to which Starlight just rolled her eyes mumbling something, before leaving us.

"So... since Spike's doing some stuff with the crusaders, that means we're alone now, huh?" I noticed.

Twilight was silent for a moment, before she replied "Yeah, we're... alone." She paused for a moment, apparently thinking about something. "Hey, how about I show you around a bit more?" She suddenly suggested and honestly, I didn't have anything better to do and it obviously made her happy, so I quickly agreed.

WARNING: Porn ahead

If you're underage, please skip the rest of the chapter. pff, as if anyone would do that...

Twilight had a blast. Of course she did. After all, she was asked to show Alex around her book collection! She listed off every book and told him each individual story that she could remember, which were virtually all of them. And to her delight, he actually seemed interested! He even kept the conversation going after she was finished and together, they discused everything from their most favourite books to different authors, until they drifted off to other topics. Of course, she was wondering how Alex had ever even gotten to read a book, given his size, but she decided not to ask, lest she would ruin the mood.

Then, somepony knocked on the door and Starlight said that she would be out doing something with Trixie. Twilight didn't care all too much about it, since it was a perfect opportunity for some friendship lessons, but she would have to do that on her own.

Starlight left and they went back to reading books, until Alex spoke out what should have been obvious.

"So... since Spike's doing some stuff with the crusaders, that means we're alone now, huh?"

That was right. They were alone. she was alone with alex. Alex was alone with her. She glanced over to him. He was reading his book, calmly, undisturbed, fully entranced. It was truly satisfying to look at, for her at least. and she knew exactly, what she wanted to do now.

"Hey, how about I show you around a bit more?"

It was an old plan she had laid out for just something like this to happen and right now seemed like the perfect opportunity to use it. Too perfect even, but perfect nonetheless.

She led Alex around, stepping into each room for just long enough to show and explain everything, before leaving them again and though that was the plan she told Alex about, it was not entirely the truth. With every room they entered and left, Twilight could feel her heart beat faster. She felt herself slowly heating up as they marched through the corridors and she subconsciously started swaying her hips and swishing her tail, as they neared their actual destination.

"This is my Bedroom." Twilight said with as calm a voice as she could muster. she opened the door with her magic and alex made a step forward. He then looked down at Twilight, apparently asking for permission. Twilight nodded with a smile, barely keeping herself from just pushing him in.

He calmly walked in and looked around. Meanwhile, Twilight remained at the door for a moment, but unbeknownst to him, she silently not just closed, but also locked it. Not to trap him inside, mind you, but to make sure that they would be undisturbed, in case Starlight or Spike came back earlier than expected.

Alex seemed completely oblivious to what was happening, which was a good thing, since while Twilight was actually stepping through with her plan, she was beginning to doubt he intent. Was she actually going to do this? Would she be able to do this? And most importantly: would she even get an-

"Hey Twilight, can you tell me a bit about this personal collection of yours?"

... Opportunity.

Alex stood in front of Twilight's personal bookshelf, just about a ponylength away from it andlooking through the rows. Twilight knew, what she had to do now, even though she was beginning to grow anxious. She stepped in front of him and began telling about the books in her shelf in the most calm manner she could muster. Meanwhile, she was debating with herself, if she should really step through with this. After all, she was now only a literal step away from the point of no return.

In the end, the decision could only have had one outcome: yes. She made a step backwards and gasped, as she felt her butt press against his crotch. She had crossed the point. Now, it could only go forward. (Quite literally, since Alex was standing behind her.)

She started slowly rubbing her ass on his crotch, humming in delight as she felt a pulsing sensation slowly press between her asscheeks. It laid down on her dock, steadily growing with each pulse, before his dick finally laid down on her back with the tip sitting just below her shoulder.

"E-Euh... Twilight? what are you doing?" Alex asked hesitantly.

Twilight didn't let herself be deterred by this. There was no going back now. She slipped away from under his shaft, momentarily admiring his length and girth, before she reared up on her hind legs and put her forelegs around Alex's neck. She then stepped over his cock with one leg, squeezing it in between her thighs and holding it directly against her already winking and wettening marehood.

"D-Do you remember the day we met?" She started to talk. "When you saved us and... and I actually b-bent over for you?"

"No! I mean, yeah, I do, but you don't- you don't have to do that! I already tol-" Alex tried to reason, but Twilight interrupted him.

"I know it was just a joke, but... Yes, I did it for my friends, but I also felt a bit... excited. It was likely just the heat of the moment, but then you became our friend. I was happy, of course, but there was also this feeling in the back of my head, like some kind of a dull pain. I thought that maybe I had a dragon fetish of some kind, but then what about Spike? I didn't feel the same about him and he is a Dragon too, right? I even bought some magazines just to check and-- and..."
Twilight breathed slowly, to calm herself, before continuing. "I didn't find out what it was until after our visit to the mirror universe. When you stepped out and were still the same size as on the other side. At that moment, I felt the pain vanish. The pain that came from the impossibility between us. When the factor that truly divided us suddenly vanished I could finally see what was wrong."

Once again, Twilight breathed in, bracing herself for what she was to say next. "I- I.. I..." She struggled. She couldn't bring it over her lips. "I- hnf!" suddenly, she felt her lips be shut. though not by a claw, but by something wet. Something soft and yet slightly rough. She closed her eyes as she gladly embraced the kiss Alex had dragged her into. His arms enclosed her back, pulling closer and holding her there. "So... you accept me?" She asked hopingly as she parted from his lips."

"Seeing as you are literally sitting on my dick, don't you think we skipped a bit ahead of that already?" He asked with a slight chuckle.

Twilight looked down, seeing that his cock was indeed still caught between her legs. "I-I s-sorry, I..." She stammered, while slowly stepping off his dick. at least, that's what she wanted to do. However, his claws suddenly slid down and grabbed her flanks, slightly, yet firmly pushing her back down onto his shaft, while he assaulted her with yet another, even more passionate kiss.

Their tongues entwined and parted inside of their muzzles, while Alex now gently moved Twilight's hips back and forth, rubbing her marehood on his cock. She moaned into her mouth, voicing her approval and pleasure and adding her own movement to the mix. She gasped, as she felt him start to gently knead her flanks. It was a truly blissful feeling, only made better by the rubbing sensation on her clit and the ever ongoing mess their mouths were making.

Then, the next step was about to be made. Twilight let out a moan, and a confused squeal, as she sudenly felt herself be lifted upwards. she looked down and saw that Alex's dick was following the motion, righting itself upwards, until it was pointing directly at her underside.

He slowly lowered her again, until her entrance touched his tip and she let out a gasp. "WAIT! P-Please... set me down again."

He stopped and after a bit of hesitation, he obeyed her, even though his body was telling him to do otherwise. "I- I'm sorry. I got a bit lost in the moment... I think I... better go now." He said downtrodden. However, before he could reach for the door Twilight called out for him again.

"Wait, no! That's not what I meant."

He turned around to her again and saw that her face had now taken on a bright pink colour and her wings were stiffened in a wing display. Also, she had moved closer to her bed and was now turning towards it. She then laid her chest and forelegs onto the mattress, while she kept her hind legs on the ground and buried her head in the bedsheets.

"I just wanted to.. do it ponystyle... for our first." She blushed even harder and buried her face further into the bedsheets, while Alex was walking over to her with a smile.

He stood behind her, marveling at her beautiful wings and mane, but most of all he was entranced by her hips and the marvelous marehood they held. He grabbed his shaft and aligned it so that he could push into her depths.

Twilight gasped as she felt the tip kiss her tunnel and she instinctively spread her legs to make room. Yet, she felt it prod in, but never quite penetrate, he was just too big or she was just too small. Then, she felt something else. She moaned as she felt a slight burst of pleasure, when Alex used two claws to spread her labia a bit. His dick came again and this time, she actually felt part of it inside her, but only the very end of the tip.

Alex gently pushed against her, so that his dick would hols itself straight and her tunnel open. He then gently removed his claws and started to push in. Twilight panted heavily, moaning and gasping and groaning and squaling just from the sensation of him finally pushing into her and even though she had already spread her legs to make room, they were pushed even further apart.

It felt like ages until he finally hit her cervix and every second of it was more pleasurable, yet at the same time more exhausting than Twilight had ever imagined. However, it was also painful. Her cunt clearly wasn't made to get spread by a Dragon and that was apart from her being pretty sure that he was bigger than what should physically be possible.

"Are you okay?" Alex asked worriedly, after Twilight had made a particularly strained moan.

"Y-Yes, I'm okay... just... don't move for a moment... You're bigger than I expected." Of course, hearing that filled Alex with a bit of pride and it involuntarily made his dick grow just another few millimeters.

After a bit of controlled breathing and shifting around, Twilight had loosened up enough to fit Alex relatively comfortably. He started to move, slowly at first, to make sure that he didn't hurt her. Twilight, in turn, started to moan in pleasure. Even though it didn't hurt anymore, she was still way too small for him and this resulted in her feeling every knob, every nudge and every vein on his dick when it rubbed along her inner folds.

Alex pulled out, slowly and gently, until only his tip was left inside and he came back with the same speed. Every time he left her tight embrace, it would leave an empty feeling, like her pussy was screaming for him to return, which he then slowly did. However, 'slowly' was soon not enough for her anymore.

"P-please, do me faster. I want you-- hnnng! -- I want you to rut me!" She moaned and he obeyed. He picked up his pace, sliding out and back in faster and faster, until she could feel him hammering into her cervix. Every slam into her innermost door casued a short burst of pleasure. Every touch to her flank caused a pressure in her crotch to build and she felt like she was about to pop.

Then, Alex leaned down onto her and started kissing her neck, causing her to loudly moand in pleasure. It felt like every kiss was directly pressing down on her clit and as he then started massaging her wings as well, the line was finally crossed. Twilight's moans rose in volume until they became screams of pleasure. Her cunt tightened around his dick, as far as that was possible and she squirted all over his dick.

Yet, he didn't slow down. He continued hammering into her, drawing out her climax to the point where she would almost faint. She almost collapsed to the ground, her hind legs only being held upright by alex's grip and dick. By now, she was moaning loudly with every thrust. Her head was laying sideways on the bed and her tongue was lolling out of her mouth.

However, Alex was far from done. Suddenly, he lifted Twilight up and onto her bed, where he placed her with her head onto her pillow. He himself climbed onto the mattress as well, all the while keeping his dick in and maintaining his hammering. When he was kneeling on her bed, he grabbed her waist and slowly turned her around. Twilight squealed as she felt the dick inside her turn and her face flushed red yet again as she was again facing her mate.

"Wh-why -Ahnnn!- Why did you turn -mmm!- me around?" she asked, interrupted by her own moaning from the continuing pleasure she was subjected to.

"You know... your ass and back may be very sexy, but it's your cute face that I wanted to see."

Twilight covered her face, trying to hide it behind her hooves and failing utterly at it. "N-No, you can't say that!"

"Why? Don't you like being cute?"

"No, it's because I think I'm- I'm getting close again!"

Alex took this as his cue. He picked up his pace, feverently slamming into her, each push eliciting a pleasured moan from her at such a fast pace that she had barely time to breathe. Each slam into her ended with a wet slapping noise adn his balls were slamming into her assole, which only added to her pleasure.

"Yes! Rut me! Make me your broodmare!"

His dick continued slamming into her cervix, demanding entrance, but being denied every time. Yet, he tried again, pushing harder, pushing faster, pushing with every inch of his being. she could feel his dick start do pulse and throb inside of her and she knew exactly what that meant. He was getting close and so was she.

"Cum, Alex! Breed me! Fill me up! Make me yours!" She pleaded, before pulling him down into the most passionate kiss she could ever give.

He, in turn, wouldn't leave her waiting for long. With one last push, his tip finally gained entrance into her deepest chamber and the mix from pain and pleasure pushed her over the edge. Alex shot his first load deep into her, easily filling her up with the first spurt, shooting it with a pressure, high enough that Twilight would've flown off if Alex hadn't been holding her.

Her womb was filled and excess started to spill. Then, his second shot came and her belly started to bulge slightly. then came his third... adn fourth adn fifth. Each shot was easily enough to fill her whole womb and by now, she was looking like she was about to give birth already. the pressure inside her was building to the point where not even Alex could keep his dick inside her and was pushed out, where another four shots spurted out, covering Twilight's belly, rump and parts of her face in layer after layer of thick Dragon cum. What was left inside her mixed with her own juices and started spilling out from her heavily abused pussy, forming a small puddle right underneath her asshole.

When his last shot was spent, Alex laid down beside Twilight, both panting and smiling in bliss. Although, due to his Dragon physique, Alex wasn't even closely as spent as Twilight was. She snuggled up against him, rubbing globs of his own cum into his scales, but he didn't mind. He was just too glad that Twilight was happy.

She fell asleep very quickly from her exhaustion and with her fell her locking spell. Immediately as it didn, Starlight entered the room, with a satisfied smirk on her face.

"So, I take it she finally confessed to you?"

Alex looked over to her and, after getting over the fact that she obviously had been standing there for a while, just met her smile and nodded slightly.

Starlight was satisfied with that answer and opted to leave those two alone and instead went to solve another problem she had come across when she heard those two in Twilight's room.

Now... where did we keep the cucumbers again?

Author's Note

A whole day spent writing this one. Yep, I think it was worth it ^^ (even though literally half of it was just clop. Eh, still a valid story development. )
