The Art of Reprisal
Chapter 3: To the Victor
Previous ChapterNext Chapter"And you're sure you saw them going over here?" Starlight asked as she peered over yet another hedge.
"I'm sorry, Empress. I could've sworn I saw the colors of Twilight's mane in this direction while we were two lanes of the maze over." Chrysalis said with sincere regret tinging her voice. Starlight sighed heavily, shaking her head in growing frustration.
"That you might've, or you might've seen the flowers that are absolutely everywhere!" She huffed, staring angrily at the offending flora that bore two out of the three colors of Twilight's mane. "Seriously, who thought it would be hard to find Trixie? She practically begs for ponies to find her!"
"I'm sorry, Empress. Perhaps I should fly up to spot them?" Chrysalis proposed oh so helpfully. Starlight shook her head.
"No, I want to be right along side you when we find Twilight and Trixie; and though I usually could fly after you, right now I'm so drained that I couldn't hope to make it for much more than a leap over one layer of bushes."
"And I doubt I could carry you. Changeling aren't build to carry off fully grown ponies." Chrysalis mused.
"Hold up," Starlight paused, "I could've sworn I saw picture from the archives of your changelings lifting a variety of ponies. In fact, I'm fairly certain I read that the flight muscles of changelings were adapted to be able to lift as much as three times as much as their own body weight!"
"Drones, but Queens rarely can lift much more than a single egg or hatchling. Enough to start a new hive from scratch, not enough to be the sole member of the hive." Chrysalis explained. Starlight grumbled to herself at the convenience of it all - though then again Chrysalis was fully subjugated so it was unlikely the changeling was lying to her.
Starlight took yet another turn through the massive maze and groaned in exasperation as she found the central gazebo for the third time that afternoon. "Celestia's sake, how complicated did they have to make this maze‽" She said, banging her head against one of the posts.
"Twilight did ask Discord to help with the replanting of the maze." Chrysalis pointed out.
"So help me, I will find that draconequus..." Starlight grumbled, not caring to make her threat more specific. She rather not give Discord a head start. Then again, it was likely to - much as the majority of her threats - include a tire iron somewhere in the mix. "You'd think that the maze would be made to be enjoyed - not as an effective torture device and eternal prison."
"As true as that is, I once again say I could fly over the maze and effectively guide you out of it." Chrysalis pointed out. Starlight dismissed the thought with a wave of her hoof.
"I will not be beaten by some shrubbery with asperations!" She declared before setting off once more, focusing her mind to plot out the maze as best she could while navigating it.
It was, therefore, to her great distress when two turns later she emerged back at the gazebo. "Wha-... bu-... then... HOW‽"
"I did mention that Discord helped with rebuilding the maze, right?" Chrysalis said calmly, not even having left the gazebo herself. Starlight groaned, stomping about to relieve a bit of emotion before picking another path.
This time she didn't even have to turn before she came back to the gazebo.
Starlight yelled her exasperation before pacing around the gazebo in a fury. "Do you really need to yell? It's not like it will help much." Chrysalis said calmly. Starlight paused and turned to the changeling - her anger replaced with confusion for the moment.
"What do you mean? Won't somepony hear me and come help us out? A groundskeeper has to come around eventually to trim the verge." Starlight pointed out. Chrysalis shook her head, tapping a hoof against the gazebo.
"Discord wasn't the only one who put magic into this maze." She said with a coy smile. Starlight cocked her head, walking up the few stairs and turning to look at the inside of the gazebo's pillar. There, inscribed in the wood of the structure, was a complex series of runes that glowed with an ever so dim light.
"Nopony can even see us in here, much less hear us. The only way we could be noticed is if we light the brazier in the center of this gazebo and send up a smoke signal. That or set the maze on fire - but it achieves the same effect." Chrysalis shrugged. "Discord may have made it nearly impossible to get out, but I made it enjoyable to stay in - at least for Twilight and Luna."
"You... you made a place the... eh... fuck outside?" Starlight asked.
"Oh yes, making the two of them act so depraved in a somewhat public setting always filled me with such a vigor. Making Twilight act like a harlot and scream to the four winds of the world that she was mine - among other such depraved acts - was simply divine." Chrysalis chuckled. "And having Luna here just made it all the better. Oh the great fun we've had in these green walls."
"But wouldn't somepony eventually catch you? Heck, there are guided tours every three hours on weekdays and one every hour on weekends." Starlight pointed out.
"Exactly why I enjoy doing it. They could always figure out the maze just fast enough to catch their princess getting ravaged by my ovipositor, or they might just arrive as Luna brings Twilight to climax with her tongue. Then again, they might arrive just after the fun has ended and get to talk to a very radiant princess." Chrysalis said with a smirk.
"Interesting." Starlight mused, looking about the open space. "What time is it? Would you know?" She said, looking back to Chrysalis.
"I'd say it's about a quarter after five. Given the amount of time we've talked and spent wandering around the maze." Chrysalis said.
"So the tour is likely going through the statue yard right about now." Starlight nodded. "That's about... ten minutes before they make it to the maze? I'd say we might have fifteen if enough foals ask enough questions or if its a bunch of seniors. Then again, might be seven minutes before they get here."
"Indeed." Chrysalis nodded. "They'd likely have a pegasus to observe the maze so that it stays put. Defeats the purpose of the maze, but it does make the tours not last seven hours or bump into their future - or past - selves."
"Wait, so observation is the key?" Starlight asked, final pieces slotting into place.
"Oh yes, if you look at it from above the maze can't shift without being too obvious so you're able to get out. It was Discord's compromise with Twilight to ensure that ponies could actually walk through without bringing camping supplies."
"Huh... a quantum maze..." Starlight mused.
They stood there in silence for a moment, Starlight absorbing the information while Chrysalis simply stood at the ready, not particularly caring to do anything without being ordered to. A minute passed without any movement between the two, the silence hanging over them in an aura of awkwardness.
"Did I mention I wanted you to fuck me until the tour group got here?" Starlight asked.
"No, Empress; though I think you were just about to." Chrysalis replied. The area returned to silence for a short moment.
"Because I do want you to start fucking me until that tour group gets here." Starlight reiterated seeing as Chrysalis had yet to spring on her.
"Of course, Empress." Chrysalis said with a bow of her head before stepping up behind Starlight. "Which hole would you like me to penetrate, or would you prefer nonpenetration?" Starlight paused before shrugging and flagging her tail.
"Do me in the ass, slut. Be quick about it, too, I expect you to clean me out of your juices before the tour group arrives or else there will be consequences." Starlight ordered, taking a better stance. Chrysalis, without a word, mounted Starlight and quickly drove her ovipositor inside the mare's tight butt. Starlight grunted in response, not having figured the changeling's tool to be so thick and long, but not willing to quit on the fun she wanted to have.
Chrysalis - either not noticing Starlight's state or figuring that if her Empress wanted her to stop that her Empress would say so - began to ram her rod in and out of Starlight. Starlight bit her lip as she tried to not scream in pain, not wanting any part of what might remain of Chrysalis' original state to know she had any modicum of power over the unicorn.
It also wasn't as if Starlight didn't like the pain, it was part of why she wanted it in the ass rather than the pussy, but she wouldn't let any sign of weakness show - whether the interpreted weakness of calling off the fucking because of pain or the weakness of enjoying the pain that could be given. She had a delicate dichotomy to walk, and she was going to walk it with the greatest of aplomb.
Chrysalis, meanwhile, was just enjoying the tight hole - her mind wholly given to the enjoyment of her Empress - both the enjoyment her Empress derived and the enjoyment the changeling took from her Empress. Starlight didn't really have to fear her at this point - the spells robbing the changeling of any conniving thoughts beyond how to satisfy her Empress in new licentious ways.
In sum total, both mares were finding great enjoyment of their own sorts from the rough fucking they shared. Starlight found herself moaning and holding back pained screams by an inch as the massive rod spread her wider than any toys she had at her disposal while Chrysalis was treated to an ass whose only compare was - in the changeling's personal opinion - Luna's voluptuously rear. The lunar princess really had a glorious ass.
Thrust after thrust, Starlight found herself whimpering despite herself as Chrysalis gave her a fucking beyond compare. Each time she thought she might've grown accustomed to the incessant pace the changeling was setting, the changeling would prove her wrong and plumb her depths that much deeper.
Moment by moment, Chrysalis couldn't help but purr as her Empress continued to milk her pseudophallus with her ass. The tight entrance squeezed and teased her so - and it only got better with each second! Chrysalis did her best to make the experience enjoyable for her Empress, but with each thrust she found the mare doing something that drove the changeling absolutely wild. It reminded her of the times she had fucked a pony while disguised as a lover - the passion, raw emotion, and technique employed just filled her up and then made her overflow with ecstasy!
"W-was that a p-pegasus‽" Starlight choked out between ragged breaths and moans. Chrysalis adjusted herself, driving in deeper to her Empress while leaning forward to see around the lattice work that dipped below the roof line. She nodded as she spied the pegasus lazily flapping his way above the maze.
"Th-the next t-tour group, Empress." Chrysalis replied, her tone a tad more even for all the time she had spent fucking.
"Y-you..." Starlight faltered, her voice highjacked by a scream of pleasure before she tried again, "you b-better hurry u-u-up then! If... If you aren't finished b-b-before th-they get h-h-h-here you," She gasped out, doing her best to stay in control, "you'll h-h-have t-to f-f-f-fuck each one!"
Starlight finished, doing her best to ignore the fucking while talking - and failing wonderfully at it. Chrysalis didn't seem to notice this, and simply redoubled her efforts as her Empress had directed, pushing in and out of that wonderful ass with renewed gusto.
The pounding increasing in ferocity, Starlight found her forelimbs collapsing as she was plowed fiercely into the ground. At another time she might've rebuked the overzealous approach of the changeling, but seeing as she was being sent faster and faster towards her own climax, she let it pass.
That and her voice was being used to scream out in a most whorish of ways and her mind was being consumed by the pleasure.
Thrust after thrust came crashing down on her frame, and shortly she felt the rising wave of her orgasm coming up over the horizon. Her eyes widened, realizing that this was actually the first time that only anal fucking made her orgasm without any other assistance. Something inside her told her that she ought stop this for some reason when this was brought up at her mental share holders meeting. Those dissenting voices were drowned in the flood of Starlight's fem cum as her orgasm not only hit but shattered her world.
Chrysalis knew how to fuck.
The moments of her orgasm were not short, though, as with each moment she came she felt Chrysalis unrelentingly plowing her, paying no heed to her Empress' orgasm and instead going on fucking her in the ass. It was so much that Starlight suddenly felt the wave of her orgasm not subsiding, but rising once more as yet another orgasm chained itself onto the first. And then a third!
Whether it was the technique or a quirk of changeling biology, with Chrysalis continuing to fuck her on and on, Starlight found herself chaining orgasm after orgasm, each explosion of cum shooting across the wooden deck in a widening pool. It was wonderful, and all the while Chrysalis never once relented.
Eight orgasms in one later, Starlight felt the member in her engorge even more. Her eye's rolled up as her mouth lolled open in complete pleasure - her mind blanking as it felt her ass being spread out all the more, gaining her another crest in the ocean of her repeating orgasms. A moment later her asshole was filled to the brim as Chrysalis finally came and filled her up without mercy.
There was number ten.
Finally Starlight was allowed to fall completely to the deck as the changeling removed her phallus. Starlight lay there in her postcoital haze, giggling stupidly as she let the afterglow of a lifetime subsume her existence. She wasn't sure if she'd ever go back to anything else at that point.
Then again, perhaps double penetration with the same rough treatment would be even better? Experimentation would certainly be necessary!
Starlight, though, knew she couldn't stay there in her own juices forever. Rising up, she shook herself to send a bit of vitality through her veins that still burned with the intense aftershocks of such a violent series of climaxes. She had had a tendency before to chain orgasms, but ten? That was a new record - and one she couldn't help but look forward to breaking in the future with the changeling's help.
"Alright, Chrysalis," Starlight began, steadying herself as best she could despite her still very present afterglow, "I did tell you before I wanted you to clean this up; yeah?" Starlight said, still a bit more than woozy. She tried to focus her mind, but the chemical soup that was her brain was still having a bit of a moment. An enjoyable moment, to be sure, but a moment that was fairly hard to think through.
"Yes, Empress, I'll start immediately." Chrysalis said with a bow.
"G-good..." Starlight said in her haze, falling against the rail for support. A stray hoof found itself massaging her wet slit, and her thoughts forming around a central nexus as the world slowly fought to get back into focus. "Do it as Twilight." She said simply before even thinking about what she was saying.
Before her eyes, the changeling shifted with a wave of dark green, revealing the lavender princess of friendship and Equestria. Starlight smiled, her hoof absentmindedly working at her pussy with gentle insistence as Chrysalis in Twilight's form bent down and began to lick up the mess from the gazebo's floor.
Starlight's mind was abuzz as she watched, feeling herself already warming back up as her hoof - without her conscious intervention - worked her expertly. She licked her lips, her mind still addled by the world shaking orgasm string she had had - her thoughts only about how embarrassing it would be for Twilight to be caught like this and how immensely sexy it would be for Starlight for that to happen.
She didn't even see the mare before her as a disguise in her bedraggled state, and simply watched on as Twilight - for all intents and purposes - cleaned the floor with her tongue much as Starlight had seen in recollections of her old scrying spells. Seeing it firsthoof, just there in front of her, was so invigorating - so sexually charged - that she couldn't help but moan out her approval.
Her moans increased as Twilight approached her, her thoughts turning all the more lewd. With a gasp of mixed surprise and absolute approval, Starlight felt Twilight begin to lick her hooves. The long strokes of the alicorn's tongue across her legs - trailing up higher and higher to clean off the clinging beats of cum that had stuck to Starlight when she had fallen after Chrysalis came inside her - filled Starlight with such a warm glow that she could hardly believe it.
And then Twilight went back down, and with firm insistence of purpose, moved Starlight's still teasing hoof away and began to clean out the remnants of the orgasm from the mare's ass. It was amazing! The sensation of the tongue, the warmth of the breath, the intimate attention, and the possibility of discovery as the tour group grew ever nearer - it was all too much!
Suddenly, Twilight stopped licking out Starlight's ass, and just as the unicorn was about to order her back to it, squeaked in surprised as the alicorn began to tease her pussy with as much skill. Starlight let out a lust filled moan, feeling the alicorn prod her depths. She could hardly believe just how good the other mare was!
And then, with a burst of pleasure, Starlight came. Life was, beyond a doubt, very good, and it only looked to be getting better!
How Starlight couldn't wait to see Trixie getting this treatment!
