Rainbow liked nothing more than taking a nice relaxing shower after training. The warm water splashing onto her back and head, running through her rainbow mane and over her elegant blue coat as she stood in the big tub... what could be more blissful?

But she was also efficient. The more time she spent doing things, the less time she had for napping. So she had to multitask; in fact, she was doing three things simultaneously right then: showering – of course –, brushing her teeth, and relieving herself. After all, a drain was a drain, right? She had just crouched down with her hind legs before letting go, when faint warm aura enveloped her, and suddenly she was hit by a wall of cold air from all around.

She yanked her eyes open and found herself staring into a familiar lavender face. For a moment she just stood there, half crouched and dripping with soapy water which quickly pooled at her hooves. Then she slowly opened her mouth, disregarding the toothbrush which hit the floor with a clang. After a moment she straightened herself, and her brows furrowed as she yelled.

“What the buck?!” she spat into Twilight’s face, which received its fair share of toothpaste. “You can’t just teleport me when I’m p- showering!”

“Rainbow, I-,” Twilight said with a stern expression, but the blue pegasus wasn’t done yet. Rainbow jumped up, hovering a meter off the floor, spraying water with every wing flap.

“Did you even know what I was doing? For all you know, I might have been screwing somepony and -”

“Rainbow, listen -” Twilight started again, before being interrupted again.

“No, Twilight, you listen. This is not cool, a- hmmphhmm”

Rainbow squinted at her muzzle, which was being pressed shut by a violet glow, making it hard for her to speak. Another glob of magic pressed down on her back, forcing her back to the floor. She landed, with an angry look in her eyes. Why was Twilight using such measures against her?

Twilight took a deep breath. “Please, this is important.” She levitated a blackboard into view, on which she quickly drew a circle and a stick figure of what looked like an ape. “Today I discovered that, -”

“Is it changeling invasion?” Though her jaws were still magically locked, Rainbow had mustered a tiny gap in between her lips, though which she squeezed the words. “I’m not here for a lecture. ‘Cause if it’s not at least an -” Rainbows words ceased. It felt like her whole snout had been wrapped in cellophane, preventing anything from going out – or in.

Twilight cleared her throat. “No, it is nothing like that. Actually it is quite the opposite.” And when she saw Rainbow rolling her eyes, she added “This does not mean it is not of the utmost importance.” She turned to the blackboard again.

“Today I discovered that Equestria – or rather – our whole universe was created by another species. In fact, to them, we are nothing more but a fantasy. They call themselves ‘humans,’” she explained.

Had her snout not been incapacitated, Rainbow would have asked if Twilight had snorted too much sodium and then conspired with Lyra. But being cocky wasn’t any of her concern right now; she had just realized that the cellophane prevented her from breathing altogether. After fumbling around her muzzle to no avail she started waving her hoof, but Twilight was still focused on the blackboard.

“We do not know much about them, yet,” the lecture continued. “Although I have access to something they call “internet” which they access with the top of their laps – don’t ask me how that works. I simply have not had much time. – And we are quickly running out of time.”

In the meanwhile, Rainbow had frantically tried to stand up, and – failing that – resorted to scooting toward Twilight while still sitting. Unable to breathe, here eyes were bulging out, and she started to see shimmering sparkles in her peripheral vision.

Twilight pointed a hoof at the circle on the blackboard. “A human – probably an ambassador – will arrive in a few minutes, though this portal. We had not understood what it was until now, but it is apparently called a Stargait.” Right then something bumped right against her purple flank.

“Rainbow, could you please take this seriously, -” Twilight turned her head, only to see her friend slumped down behind her in a dragged out puddle. Twilight stepped away in confusion, thereby taking away Rainbow’s soft headrest. She simply fell right onto her face.

“Oh, Rainbow!” Twilight quickly dissolved the magic around Dash’s muzzle, who immediately took in a deep breath. She choked and spattered while laying in her residual pony girl bath water.

“I’m so sorry,” Twilight continued to apologize, “but really, this is extremely serious. This meeting could decide the fate of our whole universe. We don’t know what this human can do, so we have to greet him in the best way that we can.”

“I- It’s cough okay,” Rainbow wheezed, still on the floor. Then she looked up into Twilight’s face. “But, what do I have have to do with this?”

Twilight avoided Rainbow’s gaze and pondered for a little while, struggling to find the right words.

“Rainbow, look,” she started gently, “from what I can tell these ‘humans’ are big – um – fans of us ponies.” A quick glance told her that Rainbow still looked at her in confusion. “And you seem to be particularly popular.”

“Oh, really?” Rainbow’s face lightened up and she sat up again. “So you need me to do a stunt flying show for them.” She stepped forward and laid a hoof on Twilight’s shoulder. “Don’t worry, I won’t disappoint you. You know I’m the coolest flier around.” She gave the most confident smile that she could, which is pretty damn confident.

Twilight cringed and looked to the floor. “It’s not that... they-” She nervously cleared her throat. “They find ponies, er, physically attractive.”

“What.” Rainbow’s smile faded and her hoof slid off Twilight’s shoulder. “If you need a pony for a fashion show, you should’ve asked Rarity.” Rainbow laughed, “I’m sorry that I have to break it to ya, but you picked the wrong element-”

“No-,” Twilight said silently. “It’s not... uh- they-” Twilight bit her lip and remained silent.

“Then what is it? Stop prancing around the subject.”

“They-”, Twilight swallowed, then she bit the bit, “- they are sexually attracted to ponies. You in particular.” She refrained from mentioning that she herself was the most desired pony – at least statistically speaking. But Rainbow was a close second, and she definitely couldn’t do it herself. After all, what are friends for?

“What,” Rainbow repeated. When Twilight simply nodded, Rainbow started to grin. “Hey, that’s not a problem at all. We’ll just see how it goes, and if it’s hot, who knows-”

“No, I’m afraid, they- they seem to have a different concept of courtship. From what I’ve gathered so far, they see us as always willing for sex on the spot.”

Rainbow’s mouth simply stood agape, so Twilight continued. “The girls and I have decided, that it would be the best to meet their expectations – at least at first.”

Mouth still open, Rainbow shook her head vigorously. “You- What am I, a slut? And you and the girls decided this without me?” When Twilight simply gave her a sheepish grin she went on. “That I should be the the one to get raped-”

“We don’t even know if anything will happen for sure; and it’s not rape, if-”

“- raped,” Rainbow stressed, “by an alien thing. But yeah sure, it’s not rape if the universe depends on it.”

“Rainbow, please, it’s too late to change the plan now.”

Dash stared Twilight straight in the eyes. “Fuck it.”

Twilight tilted her head like a confused puppy, sweat dripping from her brow. The stress was visibly getting to her.

“Fuck, I’ll do it,” Rainbow clarified. “But you owe me. Something big.”

Twilight caught Rainbow in an embrace. “Oh thank you, thank you. You don’t know how relieved I am.” Then she glanced off to the side. “Speaking of something big-”

Rainbow followed her look, taking in her surroundings for the first time. They were in a big bathroom with a tiled floor and walls. A princess-sized bathtub was to Dash’s right, and there was a big mirror straight ahead just behind Twilight. But when Dash saw the small table next to the tub, she caught her breath. There were two long black items, one shorter than the other. Both had Rainbow’s cutie mark printed on their flared bases. A frickin' pair of personalized dildos.

Rainbow’s eyes grew wide. “You can’t be serious. They’re massive.”

“We only have about five minutes left. Don’t make this harder than it needs to be.” Twilight said, completely stern again.

A bright purple cloud enveloped Dash and vanished mere seconds after. Looking into the mirror, she marveled. She was now completely dry; the rest of the soapy water had disappeared. The foam around her nuzzle was gone too. Her coat had assumed an unusual shine, and her mane looked ruffled but still soft. Even the boogers from her snout were finally gone. While Rainbow didn't mind wiping her nose into her wings, if a booger was stuck in a nostril, that was an issue. If she picked her nose with her wings, downs could get stuck in there, which made it look like she had an uncool fluffy mustache.

A yank at her dock brought her back to reality. Seeing the two dildos hovering from the table, she instinctively backed towards the wall until her lips kissed the cold tiles.

“That,” she said with a shiver in her voice, “surely won’t be necessary?”

“Rainbow, please. We have to be prepared for everything. For all we now, humans penetrate with little to no foreplay. We have to make sure you are properly relaxed when it comes.”

“But those,” Rainbow lifted a hoof to point at the thick rods, “are not gonna fit. Maybe with more time, but not in five minutes.”

“Four.”

“What?”

“Four. We only have four minutes left,” Twilight explained. “And I already cast a spell to lubricate you. It also makes you more responsive to sexual stimuli. So it hopefully won’t feel too uncomfortable. Now please, step away from the wall.”

Rainbow thought of something to respond, but her friend’s arguments were watertight. So she hesitantly took a few steps forward. For a second, a wet string kept her connected to the wall, as if it was longing for the kiss to resume.

“Now turn around,” Twilight ordered.

And so she faced her friend with her flankside, who was still pulling up her tail. In an attempt to cover her anxiety, Dash leaned down, bringing her face almost to the tiled floor. Then she reached back with her wings and spread her cheeks far apart.

“Please be gentle,” Rainbow said in an unconvincingly mocking tone, “it’s my first time.”

Not seeing through Rainbow’s façade, Twilight paused perplexedly. “Wait didn’t you- I mean, there was Gilda, a- and Soarin',” she stammered. “I- I didn’t know you had never-”

“Ugh, yes of course I did. Are you stupid?” Then, Dash continued her act in a sultry voice. “Please, put it in~”

“Can you not do that, please. It’s really, really weird.”

Rainbow swallowed and braced herself for the impact. “Okay-”

Slowly but firmly, both rods pressed into her. With surprising smoothness, they disunited her lips. Twilight hadn’t lied; the spell made it feel like she was being filled with the most enjoyable things that a mare could be filled with. Figuratively. She let out a drawn out moan that would have made her mother proud. Or maybe not proud, but something or other. At the very least, it made her cheeks pulse with bashfulness. By the time the moan was over, everything sat securely where it was supposed to go.

“Alright.” Twilight let go of Rainbow’s tail, which immediately clamped itself in between her legs.

Rainbow got up and turned around, her cheeks tinted pink as if she’d just been slapped in the face. After a pause she said. “Let’s never speak of this again.”

Twilight said nothing, hoping that this was indeed the most embarrassing thing Rainbow had to go through today.

Rainbow trotted closely behind Twilight. Her tail was again closely jammed in between her legs. Before they'd left the bathroom, she had checked herself out in the mirror. She was now wearing a double-pair of rainbow-striped socks that uncomfortably accentuated her flanks; and a thin black collar with a leash, that she held herself with a wing. Twilight had told her that that was popular among those “humans”, and Rainbow had no choice but to believe her.

She had also checked out her flankside in the mirror and though it felt like the two dildos were spreading her apart by miles, they weren't actually pushing her butt cheeks apart much. Nestled in there, they weren't actually very visible when she was standing normally, even without her tail for extra cover. But it didn't feel like that, and she really didn't want any of the guards they were passing to notice.

Finally they arrived in the throne room, where the rest of the mane six and several more guards stood. At the end of the room, there was the Stargait; a big metal ring, with a ramp leading up to it. Perhaps unsurprisingly, Lyra was also part of the welcoming committee, although Rainbow doubted she had any factually accurate knowledge.

“Wow,” Rainbow muttered as she joined her chattering group of friends, who all grew silent when they looked at her. One after the other, they gave her apologetic smiles, which made her painfully aware of her special role here. They all had neatly brushed coats and manes, but none of them wore as silly an outfit.

Normally she would have hovered over the head of her friends, but given her circumstances, that seemed like a bad idea. So she opted to sit down, but regretted her decision instantly, when this sent a jolt through her privates. Not wanting to draw attention to this, she remained seated with her flanks hovering just a smidge over the floor.

“Nice socks,” Pinkie cheered, breaking the awkward silence. Then glancing at Dash's flanks, she added “It really brings out the best in you!”

Rainbow lifted a socked hoof and locked down to it, but before she could respond, a light at the rim of the Stargait lit up. Everypony's eyes eyes now fixed on the slowly turning ring.

“Here we go,” Twilight said sternly.
