Chrysalis thought she had won when Twilight was turned into a changeling, but she was wrong. Starlight had often wondered who watched the watchpony. Turns out, the answer was Starlight Glimmer. Now it's her turn to pull a startling victory.

Starlight thought Twilight might have everything under control. Starlight thought that at the last moment, Twilight would spring a complex trap on Chrysalis - revealing herself to have had it under control all along. It had happened when Starlight had tried to go against the princess; why not now? Starlight was wrong.

Chrsyalis thought that transforming Twilight into a Brood Queen meant she had won. Chrysalis had thought that with her hive coming back before her very eyes meant that she was on the road to success. After all, there were no witnesses; right? Chrysalis was wrong.

Prologue: A Matter of Inconvenience

Starlight had to admit that of all the times she had misjudged a situation, this was the worst as far as repercussions. Neither Chrysalis nor Twilight had had any idea that while they did their little song and dance together, a certain unicorn had been watching over them like the most ineffectual guardian angel.

Starlight had, much to her credit, never really trusted Chrysalis and her so called 'conversion'. It was all so convenient, and in the end was too much of the perfect story for it to actually be real. Sure, some ponies had rightfully pointed that out about her in the past - as well as for Trixie - but in the end Starlight knew herself and had room to doubt another creature.

When idly casting a scry spell after being alerted by another spell that Chrysalis had entered closer proximity with another pony, Starlight found herself watching a session of hypnosis. It was... disconcerting, to say the least. It was almost exactly what Starlight would've done if she had actually faked her own conversion - it also was something she had considered doing to make things easier on herself at times, but she had always had held out... except that one time.

And then there was that other time.

Then again, some ponies might count that other time.

The point was that Starlight didn't intercede immediately due to an understanding that sometimes a girl just had to hypnotize her mentor in hopes of getting said mentor off her back. It was a piece of common history, one might say. A sort of divergent evolution of tactics that didn't necessarily mean the changeling meant anything untoward or nefarious.

And then the changeling began to fuck Twilight senseless while disguised as Celestia.

Starlight instantly prepared a teleportation spell to leap into the fray, but then she paused. What if it was a friendship lesson in disguise? What if Twilight actually was having short term fun in addition to preparing to teach the changeling a long term lesson? It could happen - stranger things had come to pass before, so why not now?

Over the course of the next few months, Starlight would occasionally get pings from a more specific spell that indicated Twilight was the pony Chrysalis had approached. Each time, Starlight brought up a scry spell, and each time she watched as somehow Twilight was put into a trance. It certainly didn't help that her scry spell initially lacked sound, so there was little way of telling the mechanism the changeling was using.

Time passed, and as Starlight finally figured out how to include an element of sound that only allowed for her to hear the subject she scried on and not the other way around, she was allowed to witness a more... complete picture.

"Very good, my faithful student, now for today's first lesson." Celestia's voice said through the open scry spell. Starlight picked up a notepad in her magic, furiously scribbling abbreviated notes as she watched and waited. "The Queen may do with her property as she wishes. There is nothing that the Queen cannot do with her property. By definition, all that she owns is hers, and what is hers can have whatever she wants done to it. Am I understood?"

"Yes, my Queen, my first lesson today is that my Queen may do whatever she wishes with her property without exception. This is right and proper." Twilight replied in a cheerful voice as she stared on Celestia's form with a little more interest than Starlight had ever noted from her friend.

"Very good, and now for your second lesson." Chrysalis in Celestia's body said. "Now, I want you to prepare yourself for today's second lesson. For this cause, I want you to tell me your lessons thus far, my faithful student. Use them to bolster your resolve and to help you more readily receive what is to come."

"Yes, my Queen. My First Lesson: Celestia is my Queen. Lesson Two: I obey my Queen. Lesson Three: I cannot disobey my Queen. Lesson Four: I love my Queen. Lesson Five: I lust for my Queen." Twilight said, as though simply reciting a list of basic facts. Starlight, however, froze up, her quill halting on the paper as she listened to the mare she had grown to know as anything but sexual.

"Lesson Six: my embarrassment arouses me. Lesson Seven: Before I sleep I must masturbate to the thought of my Queen. I will clean up the mess and then fall asleep to dream of my Queen. Lesson Eight: my Queen may do as she wishes with her property without exception." Starlight found herself stunned by this. She wasn't sure what to make of it all.

Here Twilight was, willingly - at least by appearances - saying such... wonderfully depraved things! It was beyond the Twilight Starlight knew to think of such things, and here she was reciting them openly! Starlight didn't even notice as her one forehoof migrated a tad closer to the space between her hindlegs.

"Well done, my faithful student, and now for your second lesson of the day." Chrysalis said, creating a poignant sense of anticipation in Starlight as she watched and listened. "You, my faithful student, are my property." Starlight dropped the notepad in shock.

Instead of rushing over to the room and ending the deception, though, Starlight couldn't help but find herself so incredibly aroused that all she could do was masturbate as she watched. Whatever Chrysalis intended, her way of going about it was hitting all sorts of buttons in Starlight. It made her tingle with need and pant with lust. She wanted so very desperately to be in Chrysalis' place, to tame the wild mare in Twilight, but instead she was getting to live it vicariously.

Twilight, of course, would be fine! She had had this well under control from the beginning and hadn't made a single mistake! She had to have some sort of safety protocol that had already been activated and she was just riding this wave - seeing if perhaps Chrysalis was just a bit peckish and was using her for a reliable food source.

That was it! Twilight was letting herself be the willing food source for a desperate changeling! It was just that simple, of course! It was all play all along, no doubt about it. Twilight was sacrificing of her own energies to ensure that there were no other ponies being harmed by the changeling - especially those without the skills Twilight had to fight off the more nefarious effects of a changeling.

Starlight moaned in satisfaction, pleased with both her own ability to deduce Twilight's wonderful masterstroke of a plan while also having some wonderful material primed for her own personal pleasure.

And so she watched on, week after week and month after month. Sometimes she'd have no new shows for long stretches of time and would have to use a memory repeating spell to rewatch old shows. Her favorite by far was when Chrysalis had Twilight licked the floor.

Sure enough, just like the changeling had ordered, every day after that show there was an hour or two were Starlight would get a ping on a specialized spell that told her Twilight was alone in her room and that the door was locked. Like clockwork, Starlight would find a moment and open her scrying spell to find the Princess of Equestria licking her floor clean while walking backwards so as to lick up her own dripping arousal.

She just loved it all, and loved that Twilight would let it go on for so long! She must've gotten a kick out of leading the changeling on and on, or perhaps the alicorn too was enjoying it to some extent. The arousal that dripped from Twilight whenever she licked her floor and the sheer awestruck devotion in her eyes when attending Chrysalis in Celestia's form seemed to speak of such.

It was of a minor concern to Starlight as she noticed Twilight slowly shifting to a darker color - something more readily noticed when viewing older show and then seeing Twilight in person mere moments later. Starlight simply chalked it up to the process of maturing as an alicorn. Perhaps colors turned a tad bit. There was no reason at the time to sound any sort of alarm.

Especially since it involved bringing forward evidence that consisted of Twilight in her intimate moments. That certainly wouldn't look good for Starlight when she did such a thing. Besides, beyond the color change, there was nothing to worry about. Twilight had it all under control and Starlight could just sit back and watch.

Things, however, changed when Starlight got a late night ping of Chrysalis and Twilight's proximity that had roused her from a deep sleep. She didn't feel like watching late night porn, but did activate her scrying spell just in case so that she could watch. She faded in an out of sleep - and for most of the time it seemed as though they were doing their dirty deeds without any light.

The few times she heard a voice, she could only catch so much - having been disturbed from her sleep at such a late hour. Suddenly, she heard a piercing cry that tore her from the brink of sleep that she had teetered on.

"I LUST FOR MY QUEEN!" The voice cried desperately, bringing Starlight to enough wakefulness to pay some actual attention. She blessed the foresight she had had in making the audio only play in her mind - otherwise the conversation with Trixie might've gone a bit... sideways. Perhaps a tad up and down, depending on the unicorn's mood.

The part that caught Starlight off guard was the fact that it wasn't Twilight's voice. It was most certainly another pony, one that her sleep addled brain was having a hard time placing though it dangled off the tip of her tongue.

"MY EMBARASSEMENT AROUSES ME!" The voice cried again, this time clearly for Starlight to hear who it was.

Luna?

Why was Luna repeating the lessons? What in the world was going on? Was Chrysalis reinforcing the lessons by pretending to be Luna and having Twilight teach them to her? Certainly there was no chance that it was actually Luna, right? RIGHT‽

Quietly getting out of be, even as she continued to monitor the scrying spell, Starlight scoured her personal book collection - quickly finding what she was after as Luna's voice cried out once more. "I WILL MASTURBATE TO MY QUEEN EVERY NIGHT AND EAT MY OWN CUM BEFORE GOING TO SLEEP!"

It made Starlight search over the runes even faster. A second later she cast the alteration to her scrying spell, providing herself a view with night vision applied. The world she looked out on was still dark, but with the additional spell activated, she could not place certain details.

The group was in a forest clearing somewhere. The view gave no sense of landmarks, not that Starlight wanted to find them just yet - she needed to know what the situation was before jumping to conclusions that might lead somewhere she didn't want to end up. As far as she could tell then, it was Twilight pleasure Chrysalis who had taken Luna's form for the evening in a somewhat more public setting. It was a step for Chrysalis, and possibly the last Twilight would let her take.

Then She noticed the changeling.

There Chrysalis was, standing in the clearing to the side, bold as day. She was there, in her natural form, watching over the display. She was watching the display. She... she was there, which meant that... but how?

Starlight's mind raced a thousand miles a minute as she tried to put together what was happening. Suddenly, everything had become far more confusing, and were only progressing towards the worse. She was helpless to watch, but to dumbfounded to listen, as Chrysalis bent over Twilight and whispered words of encouragement and instruction.

All at once, with startling clarity, Twilight's lack of power became eminently obvious. The world seemed to crash as Starlight realized with a rising horror that Twilight had never been in control. Twilight had been taken wholly by Chrysalis who was now putting into place the final stage of her plan, and all Starlight could do was watch in silent horror as a friend became something she was never meant to be.

Starlight found herself facing a choice as she sat there, unsure of what the world held. She could either accept defeat and roll over or she could get on her hooves and start making something of the situation. She was too far away to act instantaneously - the teleportation necessary to get her there in one jump would be so draining she'd be useless against Chrysalis with all that love energy floating around her.

Her decision was made when Trixie, bleary-eyed and only half awake, stumbled into the room.

That changeling bitch wanted to try and take over Equestria? She wanted to try and make Twilight her thrall? She thought she could get away with dominating two of Equestria's princesses? Well...

Starlight would just have to show her what for.

Chapter 1: Setting off

"And you just watched, is that right?" Trixie asked, rubbing a hoof across her face while letting her coffee cool off slightly. "Geeze, Glimmer, never knew you to be such a fuck up." Trixie chuckled, no sign of her onstage persona in the thoroughly at ease pony.

"How many times have you known Twilight to not have any backups or contingencies?" Starlight asked. Trixie paused, pursed her lips, and then shrugged with a nod, acknowledging the point. "Exactly! She has always been prepared in the past so I figured that she had this one under control as well! The whole 'act like you've been bamboozled to see how far they'll go with it' routine! Ends up, no! She was honest to goodness fully under Chrysalis' control - no holds barred! Just straight up the fucker's slave!"

"Fuck..." Trixie muttered. "Sounds like you really screwed the bitch on this one." She said with a chipper smile.

"Trixie, so help me, unless you start taking this seriously I will hit you over the head with a tire iron."

"And I thought I woke up on the wrong side of the bed today..." Trixie paused when Starlight lit her horn and produced the cart's more than slightly heavy tire iron from the toolbox. "Look, Starlight, I'm not sure what you want from me! I'm a world class magician, not a world class mage. One attends foal's birthday parties and earns ten bits an hour, the other solves world ending catastrophe's for elevenses."

"I want you to take this seriously!" Starlight hissed, setting the iron on the table between them. "We're cancelling the rest of you're tour and heading straight for Canterlot. We'll pull the cart constantly and have the automatic locomotion spell on the rest of the time. We should make it to Griffonstone in about a week. From there we can-"

"Woah woah woah, Shimmer, we can't just cancel the tour. We got at least two dozen more gigs! The venues are paid for - with my money no less - and half of them won't give a smidgen back!" Trixie said, tempted to use the tire iron herself.

"Yes we can cancel!" Starlight insisted, taking the iron in her magic before any smart moves could be made. "Once at Griffonstone I'm teleporting us off to Manehatten - from there we're taking the train back to Canterlot."

"And where, pray tell, is my cart in this arrangement?"

"If you care for it a lot - on a paid lot for the duration of our business back in Equestria. If you care about your wallet more - under a bunch of bushes and leaves." Starlight said with no sense of humor to her voice. Trixie paused, thinking the options over for a moment before speaking up.

"Are you offering to help gather the foliage?"

"The Great and Powerful Trixie, is thoroughly disappointed with the local shrubbery." TGP Trixie groaned, looking over the sparsely covered wagon that was nestled into a crag in the rock face. "However, it will have to do for the next few weeks as The Great and Powerful Trixie not picking any more weeds today."

"There isn't anypony or anyone even here, Trixie. Beyond that, no one showed up at the Griffonstone show, so if anything saw us - they wouldn't recognize you until after you said your name. Even then, they might mistake you for a stripper or a pornstar instead. You've literally got no image to lose." Starlight pointed out with a jeering smile.

"The Great and Powerful Trixie always has an adoring public wherever she goes!" Trixie proclaimed without hesitation. "A public, mind you, that certainly would pay a great sum to see the Pure and Chaste Trixie in a pornographic shoot."

"And you'd know this from experience."

"Of course! Wait..." Trixie paused, realizing what had been said and puffed out her cheeks in consternation at the laughing Starlight. "Very funny, Glimmer, but we have more important things than just laughing at Trixie's expense - do we not?"

"Yeah, but Twilight isn't going to be any less changeling when we get there." Starlight said, shaking her head.

"She turned changeling?" Trixie balked. "You just said she had been taken by Chrysalis, not that she had switched species!" Trixie said in a closely guarded whisper. Starlight sighed.

"Well, yes, she did, and I doubt there's anything we can do about it. What we can do, Trixie, is make sure no more damage comes to Twilight or Equestria." Starlight replied, staring Trixie dead in the eyes. Trixie was obviously unsure about this statement. "If Chrysalis isn't brought to heel, she'll have an open door to just take over the entire world. She already has Twilight and Luna; how long until she wants Celestia and then the rest of the wider world?

"But, if we can stop her now, we can mitigate damages and make sure it doesn't go any further. We can still beat her at her own game!" Starlight said, growing in excitement as she convinced herself more and more. "She doesn't know somepony has been watching her this whole time! We can give her a taste of her own medicine and wiggle our way in and stealthily take back control!"

"You certainly have this all thought out, Glimmer." Trixie conceded. "I just hope you have the abilities to back all this talk up." She said, dropping her stage persona once more. Starlight nodded, coming back down to earth as she stopped thinking grandly and started thinking more close to home - closer to the present.

"Alright, well, let's get over to Manehatten. Ready?" She said, already igniting her horn as she gathered the necessary energy for a two pony transport.

"As ready as-" The two ponies then disappeared in a shower of sparks, leaving only an empty hillside that only held Trixie's cart.

"She wasn't wrong," one voice conceded from a crag up above a few moments later, "I would pay a good few bits to see her flank getting plowed by a couple thick dicks."

"Yeah, but what was that about 'beating her at her own game' and so on? I think I heard something about Twilight. You think she's talking Princess Twilight?" Another voice asked timidly.

"Bah, ponies love reusing names. For all we know they have a competing magician with 'Twilight' in her name. Their obviously planning how they are going to beat out the competition and all that."

"I suppose..." The second voice murmured, "You think they left anything... naughty in the cart?"

"What, like pictures?"

"I was thinking a strap-on."

"I dunno, let's find out!" It said excitedly. The sound of two bodies slipping through the shadows to the cart briefly filled the air as too indiscernible shapes made their way down. The air grew still, only to be interrupted by the methodical sounds of a lockpick being used.

"Good click out of one, number two's a bit stuck, got a false set on three, nothing on number four. Moving back to one, still good. Got number two to click and I think we got number three sorted. Nothing on four. Going ba-" A sudden burst of magic and electricity burst out a moment later, sending two young griffons flying away into the distance with a trail of thick smoke following them.

"-I'll ever... be." Trixie blinked, looking around at the bustling streets of Manehatten around her. "And ponies say Trixie needs to work on her manners..." She mused, shooting a glare at Starlight.

"No time for chat, let's get on over to the train station - we might still make the next train heading to Canterlot!" She said, already setting off at a gallop away from Trixie. Trixie huffed at this, tossing down a smoke bomb before galloping away after her.

Trixie couldn't help but think that the next few days were doomed to be interesting.

Canterlot was just as shining, bright, and stuffy as it had been when Starlight and Trixie had left. A radiant beacon of everything good about Equestria with bold accents of everything wrong with it. It was a wonderful microcosm that their train was having trouble getting to in any good amount of time. It loomed above them in a benevolent sort of way, staring down at their puny lives from a great distance.

"Now that we're on the train, I think I've been more than generous with time," Trixie said, looking out the window towards the mountains beyond. Starlight broke her attention from the book she had been reading to give Trixie a cocked eyebrow.

"Pardon?"

"Trixie has been more than accommodating." Trixie continued unabated - or perhaps even encouraged by Starlight's confusion. "While we trekked all the way back to Griffonstone, you said you were still roughing out the plan. I understood, it was a stressful time and we had to make haste to just be back in time whilst also conserving our strength.

"Trixie has waited patiently for you to divulge your plan on how we are actually supposed to beat Chrysalis - and possibly even Twilight Sparkle." Trixie looked over to Starlight with a blank expression. "Last I checked, the best we ever managed against Twilight was temporary victories or functional stalemates that she eventually broke by being who she is. We aren't exactly prime anti-Twilight operatives."

"That's why we aren't going after Twilight." Starlight pointed out. "Sure, we might have to deal with her, but are target is Chrysalis. We've beaten her before."

"Oh, so you called Discord and Thorax over, hmm?" Trixie asked, dramatically looking around the cabin for signs of the two missing creatures.

"Well... no, but that's besides the point! We can't involve them!" Starlight said in a harsh whisper.

"What, because it would look bad on your report card?" Trixie scoffed.

"No, because we don't want Thorax to realize he was wrong!" Starlight insisted. Trixie paused, looking starlight up and down. Starlight sighed, casting her eyes to the floor as she began to speak once more. "When Chrysalis wanted to join our side, there were more than a few ponies who didn't believe her change of heart was at all genuine. I strongly oppose the idea from the start and had even cautioned Twilight from taking any help from Chrysalis.

"Among others, it was Thorax who convinced Twilight otherwise. He told her that all changelings - even Chrysalis - could be reformed. That within each changeling there was a seed of good that would bloom into the splendor of friendship if only nurtured correctly.

"I'll be honest, he even convinced me with his rhetoric. After all, if he and the rest of the changelings had metamorphosed and so had shown themselves to be able to receive the magic of friendship - even Thorax's stubborn brother - the statistics did point to a definite trend of changelings becoming good over time.

"If we bring Thorax into this," Starlight wrapped up, "it is tantamount to having to tell him that he was wrong and that some changelings - no matter what - cannot reform. It sends a message to all creatures everywhere that there are some entities that will never turn good; and, Trixie, I think we both know that there are a few choice ponies out there that many other ponies don't think have a chance of reformation."

Trixie remained silent for a moment, thinking this over. "Well, I suppose that is a good reason to keep Thorax out of it, but why not Discord? He's extremely powerful, he can just... chaos Chrysalis into a position she can't get out of, allowing you to help Twilight while she's helpless to stop you."

"Because Discord can't keep his trap shut." Starlight countered. "You know that the first thing he would do after being told this juicy tid bit is spill in over tea with Fluttershy; and we don't need Fluttershy or the other Elements catching wind of this. We need to deal with it ourselves - quietly and efficiently."

"I..." Trixie paused before shrugging, "well, Trixie's got nothing. We'll do it your way - but Trixie still says that we might consider involving somepony else. If we fail, all chance of this getting dealt with is gone."

"We won't fail." Starlight said, a dastardly grin spreading across her features. "We're the reformed bad guys, we don't lose. It's just how these things work."

"Glimmer, so help me, if you say that again I will find a tire iron."

"Sorry."

"So, beyond the fact that you aren't getting backup, do you actually have a plan? You haven't actually said anything about one." Trixie pressed.

"Of course I have a plan, Trixie." Starlight scoffed, waving her off with a dismissive hoof. Trixie raised an eyebrow at the mare, waiting on something a little more substantial. Starlight eventually sighed and stopped her theatrics.

"Look, I was planning on getting Chrysalis separated from Luna and Twilight , cast some well placed spells, make her mine, and then claim headship of the whole situation." Starlight confessed.

"So.. fighting mind control with mind control? Glimmer, you do realize that that doesn't make you much better than Chrysalis? You're basically just replacing one villain with a slightly less maniacal villain." Trixie pointed out. Starlight shook her head.

"It's not like that at all. Twilight is wholly taken by Chrysalis - as is Luna - so there's likely little I could actually do. I could try to break the mind control, but in the end it likely won't work - and if it were to work it would likely take too long. How much damage would Chrysalis be able to do before I could get through to either pony? And that's forgetting the main issue Twilight has going on right now."

"Yeah, I suppose that trying to break her mind control might be a... well, a bit late at this point." Trixie admitted. "Probably a few more dead seated issues at play there." Trixie shook slightly, moving her mind back to the task at hoof. "So you're just planning on cornering Chrysalis and hoping it works out?"

"I have done more impressive stunts in less stressful circumstances." Starlight pointed out. "I usually do better under pressure, so we should have it fairly easy so long as you can distract Twilight and Luna."

"Oh, so there's the plan." Trixie deadpanned with a sigh, shaking her head. "I'm the bait then, huh? 'Send Trixie in there, she's distracting enough.'" Trixie said in a mocking tone.

"More like I expect that they won't think of you as a threat." Starlight pointed out. "As you said, you're a magician, not a mage - that's got to disarm them at least slightly. You're more likely to get pleasant conversation rather than an intense battle you might not be up for."

"Starlight, stop beating around the bush with me, we both know that if Twilight really wanted to and wasn't such a pansy, she'd cream me with little effort. I'll never say it to her, and I will kill you if you relay it to her, but I know there's a gulf of power I'm not about to try and consider crossing. She's an alicorn and I'm a unicorn, and even when she was a unicorn she could outdo any magical performance I could put on with ease. She's a magical protégé, I'm just good." Trixie grumbled. Starlight was pleasantly surprised by the level of maturity the mare was showing. She wondered how many more surprises the mare might have for her.

"Any way..." She continued, not wanting Trixie to spoil her own moment, "all things going well, the most you might have to do is block a door and redirect the conversation a few times. It really shouldn't come down to a fight unless things go real side ways."

"Or quite a bit up and down, Trixie expects." Trixie chuckled, getting a blush out of Starlight. "Shit, Glimmer, it was a joke. Are you expecting things to go that way already? Are you planning on them going that way?"

"I... didn't exactly tell you everything that I saw Chrysalis do to Twilight and Luna." Starlight said, leaning forward to whisper it as quietly as possible. Trixie grew from confused, to minorly excited, to appalled, to even more excited, back to greatly confused, all the way to-

"YOU WATCHED HER DO WHAT‽

"Shh! I'm not trying to publicize it!" Starlight hissed, pulling Trixie in close. "Look, it was hot, alright? I thought she had it under control and was just enjoying herself while it lasted and then it turns out that she didn't!" Starlight said in exasperation, lowering her head. She had hoped to keep as much of this close to her chest, but found herself continually giving more over to Trixie despite herself.

She had never had such a large problem on her plate before. Twilight herself had taught Starlight to communicate her problems, but it just seemed like each time she communicated she made things worse. She just wanted to curl up in a ball and pretend like she never had said anything to Trixie in the hopes the world would take pity on her and make it true.

"May I see them?" Trixie broke through to Starlight. She looked up, having been on the verge of collapse before Trixie's words. "I mean, you say they were hot and you mentioned you'd watch them over on occasion. I figure you have a few good ones. Maybe... just show me some?"

"Are... are you serious?" Starlight asked, trying to figure out what game Trixie was playing.

"Well... maybe it'll help you relax and help me understand what exactly we're up against. It'll be... educational?" Trixie said, and unsure smile across her features. Starlight sighed, a smile across her lips before she swung herself to sit beside Trixie instead of across from her.

A brief application of magic later and the door was locked and the memory of a scry spell was being brought up before them - the audio from the memory filtering its way into both pony's minds. Trixie had a hard time adjusting to it, but a moment later she had a good handle on it. It was always odd to have the sound come from inside your head, more so when those sounds had the proper echoes from a different space.

Watching the floating image, Trixie saw Twilight enter her room, closing the door behind her before latching it. She looked around for a moment - pulling the curtains closed as she moved to the bathroom. The image followed her, watched her check inside the tub and - for some reason - inside the medicine cupboard. It was a thorough search, though to what end wasn't clear.

All of the sudden, a shudder took over Twilight and she walked out of the bathroom, only to turn back to face it. Defying any expectations, the ever pure pony lifted her tail, and leaned forward until her muzzle was almost touching the ground. Slowly she began to lick away at the floor, the sounds coming through incredibly clear.

"What is she doing?" Trixie asked, leaning over towards Starlight who seemed transfixed.

"I-it's... well, it's about what it looks like - but keep watching, it gets better." Starlight encouraged. Trixie had to admit that seeing Twilight licking her floors while flagging her tail was... oddly sexual. Overtly, the only sexual part was the deal with the tail - but beyond that it was just an odd thing to be doing.

And then the first drip fell. It was followed by another and another. Trixie's eyes widened, and all at once realized what the dripping was. Beyond that, She watched as Twilight willingly licked it up while she walked backwards across her floor and licked away, leaving a nice sheen to the floor.

As she did, Trixie watched as the curtain shifted. Trixie turned her attention to it, and watched as a slender black shape slinked its way into the room from outside the window. It didn't take a genius to figure out what it was, especially as a green aura danced across its features and turned the obsidian figure into an alabaster white.

The curtains parted, and to all the world it looked like Celestia had entered the room, gracing the less than humble residence with her presence. The Celestia pretender made her way over and sat on the large bed, watching happily as Twilight made her way through the room.

Starlight manipulated the memory play back, turning the speed a bit faster than it had been in reality for a good while. Trixie watched as Twilight, dutiful in her on little way, licked the entirety of the floor over the course of what the clock on the wall dictated to be several hours. The daylight coming from the window dimmed, causing the room's lanterns to ignite into a warm glow without anypony's intervention.

And then Twilight turned about once more, licking and licking over the floor she had just licked. The light from the window disappeared, and only the artificial lights of the room glowed. The Celestia pretender, apparently having noticed Twilight's intent midway through the mare's trek back across the floor, stood up.

Trixie half expected her to stop Twilight and make her pay more attention to her, but in the end she didn't. Instead, Celestia sat down on her haunches and began to masturbate to Twilight's display. She played with herself, edging multiple times as Twilight drew closer and closer, until finally she gave herself release all over the floor.

She stood up, hopped back on the bed, sprawled across the comforter while still playing with herself in a less vigorous way, and simply watched Twilight as she lapped her way closer. To Trixie's slight surprise, Starlight slowed the view down as Twilight approached the mess, and began to lick it up.

There was no reaction, save from the Celestia who cooed at Twilight. She obviously enjoyed Twilight's actions, and wasn't about to stop the pony. She just let the mare lick her way all the way back to the bathroom and halfway back once more.

Twilight then stopped, shook mightily, and let out an earthshattering scream of ecstasy as she came what likely was the hardest orgasm ever had. The spent mare collapsed to her side, thoroughly exhausted. Not a moment later, Twilight lifted her head and began to lick up her own mess, moaning with each taste she took.

Starlight then ended that view, pausing for a brief moment. "Does that... make you feel better, Glimmer?" Trixie asked, unsure herself if that's how this was suppose to work. Starlight shrugged.

"I suppose, more horny than good. I mean - horny is good, but I still feel like a wreck." She said, looking at her hooves.

"Well, I'm here for you, Glimmer." Trixie said, placing a hoof on Starlight's right hindleg, purposefully ignoring the implications in her statement. "What is it you always say to me? We all make mistakes?" Starlight chuckled at that. "But we'll set this right. I just hope you have a way to actually control Chrysalis. I imagine that'd be quite difficult to manage." Trixie said, once more dropping her stage persona.

Starlight chuckled, "Not that hard really." Trixie looked at her with a quizzical expression. "I... I want to tell you something, Trixie." Starlight began, looking up at the mare. "I think it's about time that I did, too. I've carried this around for a while and I think it might be easier once I say it - once you understand."

"Oh really? Yet another revelation today? Trixie can hardly believe it." Trixie said with a good-natured laugh and a roll of the eyes. "What is it, Glimmer?" She said, giving Starlight a smile. Starlight opened her mouth to answer, and then paused, closing her mouth once more as she put more thought to it.

Several more false starts later, she finally lit her horn and summoned forth another viewing of an old scrying spell. "I don't have the words, but I can show you this. This one is really special, I think it'll help explain what I'm... struggling with." She said with a tone that betrayed just a hint of hope.

The view was once again the scene of Twilight's room. It was just as orderly as before, and the floors shone with fresh wax. Trixie guessed it was wax due to the fact that Twilight wasn't in the room just yet.

The door was pushed open, and in walked... Starlight? Trixie looked over to Starlight who was paying no attention to Trixie's confusion. Shaking the thought from her mind, Trixie looked back on the view, watching as Starlight closed the door behind her and then looked up towards Trixie, giving a shy wave before bouncing on her hooves in anticipation.

"Am I watching a self insert?" Trixie asked cautiously.

"Shush!"

Trixie shrugged and went back to watching the memory of a scry spell that for some reason was watching the scrier. It was a very odd situation that could only get weirder as far as Trixie was concerned. Unfortunately - or perhaps fortunately - she was going to be proven correct.

Starlight in the picture jumped slightly as a knock sounded on the door. Moving quickly she opened it and let the other pony in quickly. Trixie drew back in surprise as she watched herself walk inside the room. She was in her standard stage wear - hat and all - and seemed completely at her ease. It wouldn't have been so concerning if not for the fact that Trixie didn't recall doing anything with Starlight in Twilight's room. She had no idea when it even would've been.

"Where's Twilight, then?" Trixie asked in the unremembered memory. "You said you wanted to talk to both of us, and frankly its a miracle that Trixie's immensely busy schedule opened up just as you needed her. Even so, Trixie can't take too much time. There are many things that she needs to do today that she'd like to get a head start on."

"Oh, don't worry, Trixie, I'm sure you'll enjoy this greatly." Starlight said in the memory with a snide smile. "The time you spend in here will be most productive and greatly enjoyed by all involved." Memory Trixie huffed at this.

"Well, Trixie has yet to know you to be misleading, so Trixie will go along with whatever it is you have planned." Trixie said, looking about the room while waiting. Fortunately for the both of them, they didn't have to wait too incredibly long. It wasn't even long enough for idle conversation to start when Twilight opened the door and stepped in.

"Oh, Starlight, Trixie, I didn't expect to see you two today!" Twilight said with a tone of cheerful surprise.

"Yeah, we just wanted to talk with you for a short bit in private if that's alright." Starlight smiled, much to both Trixies' confusion. The memory Trixie rolled with it, turning her attention back to Twilight as Starlight continued. "Shouldn't take too long. We aren't interrupting anything, are we?"

Trixie glanced at the clock that the memory captured and snorted. Based on the time she read, Starlight had likely planned out the visit specifically to catch Twilight just as she was going to lick up her floor. Trixie wandered if that was what this memory was for Starlight - getting to watch Twilight firsthoof and masturbate over her while being present in the room. Trixie had to admit that that was pretty hot if that was the case.

"Oh no, nothing at all!" Twilight answered happily, closing the door behind her with a wave of her magic. "I was going to do some light reading and maybe take a soak in the tub, but I can make time for the both of you if you needed to talk. I'm always glad to have a chat!"

"Great to hear!" Starlight said happily, using her own magic to lock the door behind Twilight and cast a quick silencing spell on the door. Twilight looked at the door with a perplexed stare, turning back to Starlight a moment later, opening her mouth to ask any one of the numerous obvious questions.

"It's alright, Twilight," Starlight said, even as she cast another spell at the window, "I know this might not make sense, but what we need to talk about needs to be private - perhaps a bit more so than most conversations." Starlight sent a few more spells around the room, getting Twilight more and more concerned by the minute.

"I... don't think this is all necessary, Starlight, my room is of the utmo-"

"Oh no, Twilight, I think it really is." Starlight grinned, while both Trixies did their best to hide their own trepidation at this statement. Neither of them were having this, but they both felt as though they had little agency it the situation - remarkably true for both of them with one being in a memory and the other living an undetermined time after the memory had occurred.

"Look, Starlight, I think tha-"

"Oh yes, that might be the problem." Starlight interjected, finished with her spells as she walked up to Twilight. "Let's try this; shall we?" Starlight then leaned in and whispered in Twilight's ear. Twilight blinked a few times, and then began to pant wildly while swishing her tail back and forth excitedly.

"Good girl." Starlight smiled, running a hoof through Twilight's mane. Trixie gulped, continuing to watch the scene - too transfixed to do anything or say anything to Starlight who was gently moaning beside her, who had at some point begun masturbating beside her. "You're such a good girl!" Starlight continued in the memory with the tone one would reserve for a pet. Twilight, however, was certainly acting appropriately for the tone.

"Turn around , girl!" Starlight ordered, and Twilight obeyed. "Raise your tail, girl! Raise it up high!" Starlight encouraged. Twilight obliged without hesitation or complaint, lifting her tail as high as it would go - revealing her glistening sex. "Oh you're already so wet, Twilight! Such a naughty girl; such a good girl!" Starlight cooed before looking to the Trixie who stood in the memory.

"Come on over, Trixie. Don't you want to know how she tastes?" Starlight said with a smile. Both Trixies were shocked by this, but then - "Time for Trixie to obey." Starlight said in the memory - and instantly both Trixies' dropped. The Starlight that sat in the railroad car dropped the sound from the memory, but let it continue to play in front of Trixie while she leaned over.

"Trixie, I want you to masturbate." Starlight said in a soft voice that wormed its way deep inside Trixie's brain before moving her forelimbs for her. One hoof teased at her teats while the other began to move in circles around her pussy - teasing herself as she watched her past self walking up to Twilight to lick the other mare's dripping snatch.

"Good, very good." Starlight said, running a hoof down Trixie's neck. "Now, I want you to come out of trance. Until I change your mind, I want you to remember everything we've done. Understood?"

"Yes, Glimmer." Trixie droned while masturbating to the memory before her. Starlight nodded to this, giving Trixie a soft kiss on the cheek that brought the mare back to consciousness. Trixie initially was surprised by herself, finding her hooves working on their own to bring her pleasure, but then broke into lucidity as the world that had been hidden was unveiled.

Just after meeting Starlight, the mare had taken her will away momentarily to make her see sense. Once done, the floodgates had opened and more and more moments of time returned to her - fragments of when Starlight had taken it upon herself to make Trixie's life better by making Trixie 'less self-destructive and self-sabotaging' by altering her personality in certain subtle ways.

Eventually, though, this developed far beyond what Trixie had anticipated, and the relationship fostered by these somewhat frequent interruptions and adjustments morphed and shifted into something more sexual. A lot more sexual. Trixie hadn't questioned it before - part of her instructions to be fair - but now she could see the exact moment her mind had changed from sole focus on her magic career to focusing on developing a relationship with Starlight.

Trixie found herself recollecting moment after moment of what she had done with Starlight. What Starlight had done to her, with her, and what Trixie had done to Starlight in turn. Trixie couldn't peel her eyes from the vision of herself suckling Twilight's teats, her mind having been turned at Starlight's whim to that of a puppy.

She recalled how she had played with Twilight for nearly an hour while Starlight watched. She remembered licking up Starlight's cum with Twilight, and then kissing Twilight passionately to swap what cum they hadn't swallowed. She recalled how it felt to be brought back, to have Twilight lick at her pussy with frantic need.

All at once it built up, and in tandem with the recalled scrying spell, she came. Starlight beside her stroked a hoof through her now frazzled mane - dismissing the view of the scrying spell with a spark from her horn. Trixie panted heavily, looking at Starlight with a confused, yet loving - though mostly lustful - expression.

"That's how we win." Starlight said with a smirk, kissing Trixie on the cheek. "And I just need you to be your distracting self around Twilight and Luna for long enough for me to get Chrysalis on a leash." Trixie nodded, basking in her afterglow.

"Just... just as long as you let Trixie fuck her..."

"In time, Trixie."

"Fuck yeah."

"Exactly."

Chapter 2: Reversing the Tides

The rest of the train ride, after Trixie had cleaned up the cabin in as seductive of a way as she could manage given the cramped space, was relatively uneventful. Conversation fell to a lull, and Trixie simply spent the rest of the trip in a state of deep thought while leaning against Starlight.

"So... is Trixie a sex slave?" Trixie asked as the train finally began to slow as it pulled in towards the Canterlot stop. She had had a good deal of time to think things through, and all the questions had crystalized into a few solid forms - the first of which was the first to be asked. Starlight looked at Trixie with a cocked eyebrow and gave a snort.

"Sex slave? No, no you aren't a 'sex slave'." Starlight scoffed. "Sure, I might've increased your libido, given you a predisposition towards submission - particularly towards me - and may have even altered your desires to make that all as natural as breathing for you, but you're no sex slave."

"Certainly sounds like it to Trixie." Trixie shrugged. "Trixie would go so far as to say what you just described was almost a word for word reconstruction of the definition of a sex slave."

"No no no," Starlight said, shaking her head with a smile, "you see, a sex slave doesn't get anything out of it except the pleasure of serving their master. For one, I'm not your master. I have made you neither call me master nor mistress. I might've made you think of me more highly, but certainly not as a master.

"Secondly, I've given you plenty of ways to benefit - not the least of which is making the taste of cum the most delicious thing you can think of. Making you clean up with your tongue isn't just extremely sexy to me, but is essentially a culinary masterpiece for you!" Starlight said with a chipper tone.

Trixie supposed Starlight was right about that - cum did taste fantastic now, and though she had no prior experience, she did figure Starlight's command to the effect had at least a portion in that sensation. Then again, maybe Starlight's command was superfluous and Trixie would've already thought of cum as a delicacy had she had an opportunity to taste it before the command. She'd never really get to know at this point.

"Thirdly," Starlight went on, catching Trixie's attention once more, "my authority isn't absolute. You can freely disobey me if you want. If you wanted to leave me behind and go find another dom, you honestly could."

"But Trixie couldn't find a sub?"

"What? You think you could hold one down when licking up cum is possibly the best flavor experience in your life? Good for aftercare, but trying to be the dom while perpetually wanting to either give a blow job or eat somepony out isn't exactly... well, most doms don't do it for a reason." Starlight chuckled.

"Either way, you could potentially have a sub of your own. It would be complicated, but feasible." Starlight went on. "Yet another reason why you aren't a slave! Call it number four."

"Trixie suppose those are all valid reasons." Trixie said with a shrug.

Whether that was part of the command that made everything Starlight said more acceptable as the truth was neither here nor there - as dictated by the command Starlight had given that said that whether Trixie would accept anything Starlight said was part of the command that made everything Starlight said more acceptable was neither here nor there. That too was covered by the same command in an odd self repeating cycle, but that was neither here nor there. Nothing was when it concerned Starlight.

"Exactly!" Starlight said with a smile, standing up from the seat. "It just wouldn't make sense to describe you as a sex slave." She chuckled, patting Trixie on the back congenially. "You're more of an unpaid sex intern."

Canterlot had changed a great deal, it turned out. Most of the change was derived from the brand new skyline - accentuated by the newly remodeled Castle at the pinnacle. It was of a more neoclassical style - borrowing elements from the old castle but updating them with cues from more modern design philosophies.

Many ponies found themselves fainting at the sight of the grandeur of Canterlot's new crown jewel. The regal splendor, the swooping curves, the austere battlements, the colors of proper royalty, and the gentle touch that reminded the mind through the eye of a monarchy that was more enlightened than those of its neighbors, all came together to bring forth an image of a time-honored history of glory and days of bounty and increase yet to come.

Trixie and Starlight found themselves in much the same boat, though not because of the architecture. No, the building of the castle proper was less than the most regal or awestriking to the two ponies that had spent weeks in it already. No, the part that made them almost faint was the part that they had forgotten when first arriving to Canterlot.

They didn't contact anypony prior to arrival to arrange for a coach to the castle that sat at the top of a mountain.

They had also forgotten to book their train tickets to Upper Canterlot, rather than just Canterlot.

By the time they had made it all the way up the mountain to be face to face with the castle's gates, the sun had already begun to dip below the horizon. They had intended to arrive towards the tale end of day court, but now? Now they panted and heaved beside the zinnias in the Royal Gardens in hopes that by the time they reached Twilight's bedchambers, they would be in good enough condition that they actually be able to do anything of merit.

"I... never once... thought... to thank... the coach ponies... but now?" Starlight puffed. "Now... I can't help... but think... they should... charge more..."

"Trixie... concurs..." The bedraggled magician said while fighting off the urge to collapse in a heap. "Trixie... doesn't know... if she... can make it... to Twilight...'s bedchambers..."

"Nonsense!" Starlight said as cheerily as she dared. "It's... only six... flights of stairs... and... four corridors... away... no problem..."

"Oh, Starlight, Trixie, I didn't expect to see you back so soon!" The voice of their salvation called out from across the way. Turning about, they saw Twilight walking through the gardens.

"Oh thank sweet Celestia...

"What was that, Trixie? I didn't quite catch that."

"Trixie said... that..."

"Nothing important, we're just glad to... see you." Starlight said with a grin, finally catching her breath. "How've you been, Twilight? State affairs treating you well?"

"Oh, you know, same as always." Twilight said with a light giggle. "I've had Chrysalis to help me with the stress of it all, so at least that's going well for me." She said, looking to said changeling as she walked out from behind some shrubbery. It was always the shrubbery - it always managed to hide just enough to make life interesting.

"Hello, Chrysalis." Trixie said. "Doing well I presume? Twilight's lessons not too much of a burden on you?" Starlight wanted to smack Trixie upside the head for that. Could she not understand that them knowing about the lessons wasn't supposed to be the case‽

"Oh, our friendship lessons have been more than informative." Chrysalis smiled. "She keeps me busy learning all I can about ponies and the magic of friendship - as well as the mundane arts of 'living in a polite society', for as much as its worth." Starlight gave a mental sigh of relief as the changeling went on about how Twilight had taught her this and that and how she had learned that and this on her own. It was all vaguely reminiscent of how Starlight had gone through her own lessons - though Starlight knew that for the changeling these lessons were tantamount to acting lessons.

"So what brings you two to Cantelrot?" Twilight asked, breaking Starlight from her thoughts.

"Oh, uh... well, so see, I was helping Trixie with her magic tour." Starlight began, developing her story as best she could as she went along. "And then we... well, we got this... communication?"

"School of Friendship sent back some disturbing reports." Trixie interjected, saving Starlight's skin. "As you can tell, she's under quite the stressful load, so Trixie - as helpful as always - thought that we ought to come to Canterlot for help on how to resolve the issue."

"I'm always glad to help one of the students." Twilight said with a sympathetic, and also mildly enthusiastic, tone. "What can I d-"

"Oh, not you, Twilight. No offense, but Trixie believes it best if Starlight talked in private with Chrysalis. It was the entire point of the visit." She said with a dismissive wave of the hoof. Starlight had to give Trixie this much: the mare was a master of acting.

"Why am I needed to resolve an issue with the School of Friendship?" Chrysalis asked suspiciously. Starlight was wandering much the same, and found herself unable to answer while Chrysalis bore down on her with a stare that seemed to drill straight through her.

"Ocellus is having some... sensitive medical issues that a... well, a male changeling like Thorax isn't equipped to... uh, to handle." Trixie said, nailing the awkward delivery with such finesse that it made Starlight cringe internally despite not even knowing if 'sensitive medical issues that a male changeling isn't equipped to handle' even existed. They probably did, but Starlight was clueless about them.

"I also need to talk with Twilight privately." Trixie went on. "And by some luck, you're both here - so Trixie will leave you with Starlight to discuss the... well, frankly the more important matters, and Trixie will talk with Twilight Spar- excuse me - Princess Twilight Sparkle. If that's all quite alright with the two of you."

Twilight, for her part, was stunned - and Starlight could only imagine why. Perhaps Twilight now had some of those 'sensitive medical issue' nowadays? It wouldn't surprise Starlight with the alicorn's recent transformation and delegation as a brood mare for the new changeling resurgence. There was likely a litany of issues involved in that.

"Very well," Twilight said finally, "I suppose I can spare a moment for you, Trixie. Send my best wishes to Ocellus, I hope she gets be... improves shortly." Twilight said, with all the awkward energy Trixie had used realized into a pure form without any acting involved. Biology, it was the best way to make things awkward.

Twilight and Trixie moved off, Trixie already rambling on and on about some such as they went deeper into the gardens. Starlight almost wished she could've been present to hear what bullshit Trixie was 'getting off her chest' - she might have to ask her later.

"So what issue is the young love bug having? Is it the slouts, or perhaps the havezies? Love sickness? Doubt it, the bug's probably going through withdraw or malnutrition with how they act." The changeling Empress snorted. Starlight blinked a few times - and then realized that she had, with the time Trixie had bought her with the gift of gab, come up with no excuses or splendid bullshit of her own to peddle to the changeling.

"I... uh..." Starlight began, completely unsure where to go with this, "well... I..."

"Show me the letter." Chrysalis sighed, extending a hoof. Starlight gulped, and then nodded. She lit her horn and began to riffle through her saddlebags while weaving a complex spell in her mind.

"It's in here somewhere..." She mumbled while tracing the intricate designs with her mind's eye. "Ah, here it is!" She exclaimed before firing off a bolt of energy into the changeling's chest. Chrysalis, having been fully taken in by the ruse, had no time to react as the spell fired, finding herself instead frozen in place.

"It's a handy little spell. Far more complex than what I brewed up for use on the Elements. Of course, that was five minutes of research - this is roughly a week's work with months of refinement." Starlight said, walking up to Chrysalis, inspecting her features more closely. The changeling did have that subtle beauty to her - the sort that you didn't notice while she pounced on you.

"Follow me and listen to my words, Chrysalis, and respond when spoken to. Understood?" Starlight said, walking past her with a smile that held that slight devilish edge that she had always tried to weed out from her typical smile.

"Yes, Starlight." Chrysalis droned as she took up position behind Starlight without complaint. It filled Starlight with an energy she could only compare to controlling Trixie - or that one time she had taken advantage of Twilight.

Also that other time she took advantage of Twilight.

And that one time she involved Trixie, that was just so invigorating!

Ooh, and that other time when she involved Trixie! The mere thought of that time made Starlight really itch for some action.

Moving deeper into the hedge maze, Starlight began to talk to the entranced changeling. "Who are you, Chrysalis?" She began, working on the fundamentals of her power with the creature.

"I am Chrysalis. I am Empress of the New Changeling Hive, the secret ruler of Equestria, the dominatrix that rules over Twilight Sparkle, and the master of subterfuge and deception." Chrysalis said without a trace of emotion. Quite the impressive resume if Starlight was to judge, and at the moment she was the only one who could.

"I want you to amend your identity." Starlight said simply as she kept walking. "You are no Empress, you are no ruler, you are no dominatrix, you are no master. Am I understood?" Starlight glanced over her shoulder.

"Yes." Chrysalis nodded.

"Who are you, Chrysalis?" Starlight prompted.

"I am Chrysalis. I am a changeling." She said, her list having suddenly become far less imposing. It was the perfect place to build from.

"Very good, but you are more than just a changeling, Chrysalis." Starlight said with a grin before turning her attention back to the path before her. "You are a slut and a harlot. You are a depraved piece of meat that only ever thinks about fucking. You are a expert at fucking and at devising new ways of fucking. Your a bimbo who can only think of dicks and pussies and how to please them.

"You are submissive, especially to me. You want to serve me and fuck me - but mostly to be fucked by me. You love me and can't live without me. You desperately want to have me, but you can't have me. You're too much of a bitch in heat, too much of a harlot so obsessed with fucking, and so much of an airheaded bimbo that you couldn't possibly possess anything beyond the assets you were born with.

"No, you can't have me." Starlight said, a grin taking her features of a variety that saw the light whenever she played with a mind. "But I can have you. You let me take you. You are mine, and you are my depraved little slut. You love that fact, and you can't imagine the world any different. You are my slave, my fuck toy, and you love knowing that. Is that understood?"

"Yes," Chrysalis replied, "I am your horny slave slut who lives only to be fucked."

"Good, you listen well."

"I listen well."

"Indeed, but beyond that, you also fuck well." Starlight went on. "You fuck so well that Twilight and Luna think that they belong to you. Such a ridiculous notion; and even so you let it fester in their minds while fucking them ragged." Starlight chuckled.

"You did it because you were horny and I wasn't there to fuck you. You did it because I wasn't there to relieve your stress. You won't be doing it ever again - because if you do it again I will have to punish you by not letting you fuck for a very long time." Starlight said, grinning all the while.

"You're going to give them to me. You're going to tell them that they are mine and that you are mine. Am I understood?" She asked, looking once more towards Chrysalis.

"Yes, I will give you Twilight and Luna. They are yours. I am sorry for being a bad girl." Chrysalis said in her monotone way. Starlight paused, lit her horn while picking up her pace, and then let fly a more concentrated form of the spell she had hit the changeling with before.

"Answer honestly: were you fully entranced before?" Starlight asked, unsure if the addition of 'bad girl' had just been a fluke.

"No, I was only partially entranced. I was gathering my will to fight you with a spell of my own." Chrysalis answered. Starlight shook her head at the changeling, charging her horn once more.

"Chrysalis, you are a silly bitch who doesn't know her place." Starlight sighed. "Fortunately, I have experience with those." She then hit Chrysalis with the most powerful version of the spell she could manage. Honestly, it was less powerful than the first casting - but it had certain redundancies in its purpose that Chrysalis, whatever part of her still clung on, would find it far easier to submit than to consider rebelling.

"Obedience," Starlight began, "brings pleasure. Rebellion, causes distress. When you obey, you will feel so wonderful! But when you rebel, you will feel sick to your stomach and so dizzy that you could just topple over. You can make it go away - though - by just obeying me once more.

"Just obeying my orders and my voice once makes you feel so much better, and it only feels better the longer you obey. The more you disobey - though - the worse it feels. Each time it just gets worse and worse, and you just will be filled with such loathsome feelings that you will want nothing more than to obey me and feel good once more." Starlight purred.

"Now let's go over it once more: who are you, Chrysalis, and what will you do?"

"I am Chrysalis. I am your bimbo slave slut." Chrysalis answered without issue. Starlight nodded to this, appreciating the succinctness of the answer. "I will do whatever you want. I will give you Twilight and Luna. I will obey."

"Good, very good." Starlight smiled. "Feel my words pleasuring you whenever I praise you. It fills you with such wonderful, sensual feelings for me to praise you." Starlight said, looking over the changeling. "We're going to have such fun, you and I. But first, let's settle the score with the two princesses you owe me." She finished, planting a kiss on the changeling's cheek.

Chrysalis blinked a few times, and then gasped in shock, looking at Starlight before her as if the mare had just appeared. With amazing speed, Chrysalis fell to the ground and kissed the dirt at Starlight's hooves.

"Starlight, Mistress! I can't... I'm sorry I didn't realize it was you! Please forgive your silly slut for treating you so rudely!" Chrysalis begged between kisses.

"I think I might have it in me to forgive such a silly slut as you." Starlight nodded, considering the plea with the serious expression of somepony deliberating on a matter of utmost importance. "On some conditions of course, I must remind you who I am to you, after all."

"Of course, Mistress! Anything, Mistress!" Chrysalis groveled.

"Firstly, I'll need every assurance that you're giving me Twilight and Luna as you said you would. A bimbo like you might mistreat them, and I can't have that." Starlight said firmly. "Be sure to tell them that I am their new Empress, and that you are my slave."

"Of course, Empress, I'll make sure to do so!" Chrysalis said enthusiastically. "They're yours, I'm sorry I ever tried to take them on my own, oh please forgive me!" Chrysalis continued. Starlight wanted to laugh, but figured she had already ticked enough boxed to be considered a villain in remission, and so decided to forgo that part of her story.

"The last condition, Chrysalis," Starlight said, with a cocky grin, "is to fuck Trixie ragged with your ovipositor. Make sure not to cum though - I want her pristine but fucked - not pregnant."

"Of course, I'll fuck the third-person out of her!" Starlight chuckled at that.

Trixie was just going to love her little surprise.

Chapter 3: To the Victor

"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!

Epilogue: Heavy is the Head

"Starlight is your Empress, I am her slave. You will obey Starlight." Chrysalis instructed Twilight, who stood in a trance. Starlight was glad that it still existed within the changeling version of Twilight - the fact that it might've bled off when she transformed having posed a conundrum to the unicorn who was already running out of steam for mind control spells.

They had since moved into the castle itself, Trixie and Twilight having apparently had a lengthy discussion about a smattering of subjects that Twilight summarized as 'certainly interesting and definitely eclectic'. Now they stood in Twilight's room, with Trixie waiting by the door that had it's silence charm shimmering happily across its surface.

"Starlight is my Empress and I obey her." Twilight repeated, her expression blank as the words sank into her very soul.

"I think that's enough, Twilight, awaken now." Starlight said, stepping in front of Chrysalis - who bowed to the mare with an intense blush. Twilight shook her head, and then saw Starlight before her. She blushed and bowed her head to her new Empress, the emotions that had been fostered by the changeling obviously having transferred with the title of Empress.

"I am glad to see you, Empress. I am at your disposal." Twilight said. Starlight had to check her escalating emotions at that proclamation - the temptation to take Twilight right then and there being quite the strong one.

"I have asked my other slave, but I wanted to see what you had to say." Starlight began, briefly nodding back towards Chrysalis. "Do you think that there might be a possibility of reversing what Chrysalis has done to you - namely your transformation." Twilight paused, thinking the question over.

"As far as I understand it, and my understanding is by no means complete on this matter," Twilight began, couching her words heavily, "I doubt that the process of metamorphosing into a changeling can be undone. It's a deep magic that likely has more power to it than most any spell that ponies or any other creature have devised."

"Rats..." Starlight cursed with a huff. "I suppose that means you are a permanent changeling then?"

"That would be the long and short of it - though as a changeling I am more than able to make my appearance that which pleases you." Twilight offered, missing the point of Starlight's words.

"Well, at least you aren't under Chrysalis' control anymore." Starlight shrugged. "By the way, Chry-"

"Yes, Empress?" Chrysalis asked, poking her head out from the bed where she had pinned Trixie without a noise. Trixie's eyes were rolled up and away, revealing more white than Starlight had though possible, and her mouth was filled with pillow while her pussy was filled with ovipositor.

"Oh... you're already on it... her. Good job."

"Thank you, Empress!" The changeling said with a broad smile before returning to fucking Trixie ragged. Starlight made a mental note to ask for much the same treatment later. The ass fucking was all well and good, but getting pinned to the bed and getting her pussy fucked ragged... that was just something else entirely!

"Anything you'd like me to do for you, Empress?" Twilight asked. Starlight considered this for a moment and then nodded with a smile.

"Yeah, I can think of something for you do to." She hooked a hoof behind Twilight's head and pulled her forward while falling backwards herself. Landing with a thump, She smiled up at the bewildered Twilight. "Eat me out, Sparkle." Twilight lit up with an adoring expression, and instantly jumped to her task - literally.

Starlight sighed in contentment, pleased with how everything had turned out. The world was, as much as it could be, right once more. Twilight was no longer under the control of a megalomaniacal, egocentric, maniac of a tyrant, and Starlight was instead in power.

Starlight could make sure no more mishaps of this sort ever happened again, and would have the benefit of the use of not only what had been Equestria's greatest foe but also the ruler - and one of the former rulers - of Equestria. Life was going to be good so long as nothing came along to spoil it.

That did, though, bring up an interesting question for Starlight's consideration.

With the propensity of the enemies of the state to go after either the current or former - or both - rulers of Equestria, should Starlight take Celestia as well? Twilight and Luna had already been taken and had irreversible damage inflicted on them - damage that would manifest fully as psychological trauma if the spell the changeling had them under was broken - so Starlight felt at least morally justified in taking over management of the two ponies.

Would taking Celestia be the right thing to do? It would make things easier - and plus it would give her the chance of a lifetime to fuck the princess of the sun. It was pretty tempting.

Let Celestia go and definitely have the moral high road, but miss out on that princess ass; or take Celestia with her spell and save Equestria the possible grief the future might bring will getting to indulge in all the delicious fetishes the rest of Equestria could only dream of.

It certainly was something to think about in the very least; and what better way to ponder such deep moral quandaries than to have Twilight between your legs while you were thinking? This was certainly good, and no matter what, Starlight could only see it getting better.
