Repo in Equestria

Having had a difficult time sleeping peacefully due to recurring nightmares at night for the past three weeks, Celestia walks down the halls to find her sister. Eventually finding her in the kitchen making pancakes, she sighs and says, "Ah, here you are. I was looking all over for you, I haven't been able to sleep at night for the past few weeks due to a recurring nightmare that won't leave me alone. I need you to get rid of it for me so that I no longer have to hear you and my mother screaming in agony while being butchered by a mad scientist with blood spattered all over the walls and floor."

Huffing in annoyance at how she demands her help, she turns her nose up at her and says, "With how you hath treated me sister, I would rather not, as suffering is good for the soul." Setting her sister's plate with 6 chocolate chip pancakes on the table with a clatter, she then trots out of the room, saying, "Get over your fears by yourself."

Sighing as she grabs a fork, butter, and syrup, she slowly digs into her food as flashes of the nightmares pop up into her mind. Wincing as she hears the blood-curdling screams of her sister as she pleads, "NO MORE! NO MORE, PLEASE!! IT HURTS TOO MUCH, LET ME DIE ALREADY!" When a strangely familiar male voice says, "Just endure it a little bit more my darling, we are almost to the end of the operation. You shall be my greatest success I ever achieved in my entire life, and will forever be my most beloved treasure."

The scene changes to flashes of her mother's butchered body bleeding to death and then to images of her mother's wings being sewn onto her sister's body, when she looks at a cold stone floor and hears the sound of her sister's screams which will forever haunt her memories. Blood slowly falls to the stone below and merges to form a river, which then turns into a tidal wave that washes her much older self away despite her attempts at stopping it.

Celestia opens her eyes and screams in terror, looking around to find herself in the kitchen with a plate of pancakes smeared in butter. Realizing that she fell asleep again, she feels something sticky on her face and wipes it off with a wing tip to find that it is butter. Groaning as she realizes her face is smeared with butter, she looks back down at her pancakes to see the sight of blood running all over them. Shaking her head to clear her vision, she looks back down to see the butter smeared on the pancakes. Having lost her appetite, she sighs and dumps them in the trash and heads to the washroom to get cleaned up, asking herself, "Just what in Equestria is going on here, why won't that stupid nightmare go away?"

In her dimension, Equina groans in frustration and slight panic, shouting, "Take the hint and figure out it is a premonition, you foal! Save your sister before it's too late!"

It takes a month for Nathan to have everything in place to begin the procedure in secret, including setting up a hidden place in the catacombs below to serve as the operating room. It is sunset when he moves her to the operating room below, laying her on a table within a hoof's distance from a second table as he then goes to pick up Luna and lays her on her own table, saying, "Last chance to change your mind about going through with this procedure, do you still wish to go through with it? Your mother will not survive this, you are aware of that, correct?"

On her belly and facing her mother before her, she takes hold of her hoof with hers and says, "I know, and have set my mind on this, please proceed, daddy."

Nodding his head, he takes a metal syringe then sticks the short needle into a vial of glowing blue liquid and sucks every last drop out of it, turning it upside down and then squeezes the air out of the syringe along with a tiny amount of the serum, saying, "Very well then, I am going to be injecting you with a very powerful anesthetic of my own design called Zydromine. You won't be able to feel any pain at all when I do start, and this serum also serves as a muscle relaxant."

As she tries to calm herself down a bit, she watches him approach her and feels something cold and wet scrub a spot on her neck. Opening her mouth to ask what he just did, the pain of the needle piercing her coat and penetrating the muscle surprises her into crying out briefly. Once the burning sensation of the injection fades away, she watches him fill the needle with another vial of the glowing blue liquid, asking, "How is that stuff made, daddy?"

Squeezing out the air inside, he moves to the weakened mare he's been taking care of for a few years now and caresses her neck affectionately with a gloved hand holding a new cloth wet with antiseptic, saying, "It is best that you don't know the answer to that, as it involves a rather dark method of alchemy combined with a bit of my magic. I am glad that I got to learn under Star Swirl's tutelage, though I wonder where he's gotten off to...he's never stayed away for more than a year at a time and it has been three years since last we saw him."

When he sticks the needle into her mother's neck, she winces in pain and says, "I wish I knew why he has not been around, I'm certain that my sister is concerned as well." Turning to her mother as she sees tears fall from her cheeks, she asks, "Mother, are you alright?"

Once the burning pain fades away, she sighs with relief and breathes harder than usual, saying, "I'm fine sweetheart, I just really hate injections that burn. You needn't worry about me much longer, for I will go to a better place, but a part of me will always be a part of you."

Holding her mother's hoof firmly to the bottom of hers, she watches Nathan put the syringe down and pick up a scalpel with a slight smile on his face, saying, "Alright, now it is time for the surgery to begin..." For some reason, the word surgery seems to echo through the room off the walls as her hoof begins to relax and lose her grip on her mother's hoof.

Inside her dimension

Equina watches the procedure with horror on her face as she watches Nathan cut the skin around the weakened mare's wings, holding her right hoof to her mouth as her wide eyes take in the sight of the shaved section being peeled back from the edge, saying, "If I am going to suffer the sight of this, then that foolish girl ought to suffer as well!" then shares her sight with Celestia.

Celestia finds herself in a dark space, unable to move around as she seems to be stuck in place and calls out, "Hello, Lulu, are you there?"

Calling out with annoyance and irritation, she shouts into the princess's mind, "YOU FOOLISH GIRL!! I GAVE YOU AMPLE OPPORTUNITIES TO SAVE YOUR SISTER, YET YOU FAILED TO HEED THE WARNINGS! NOW WATCH AND SUFFER WHAT YOUR FAILURE HATH WROUGHT!"

Cringing at the loudness of the shouting, she looks around to see no one around her when the area just in front of her starts to get lighter. Turning her head to see the source of the light, she looks upon a room built out of dark stone bricks kept meticulously clean and gasps at seeing her mother and sister both on metal tables, though her mother has sections of her coat cut and peeled back around her wings, shouting, "MOTHER, WHAT IS NATHAN DOING TO YOU!"

As the procedure continues on, Equina then says, "Your actions have left your sister desperate to receive any sort of approval from you, which you hath denied to her from the day she was birthed into this world. You shunned her for being different than you and couldn't bring yourself to consider her your sister. Being different should be treasured, not despised! This is a lesson you will have to learn by experiencing it...the hard way."

Her eyes are glued to the sight of their guardian cutting more of her mother's coat away along her spine and laying it back, followed by intricate cuts into the muscles beside the spine. As she observes the muscles being carefully dissected, she fights to keep the contents of her stomach down, saying, "N-No...I didn't mean for... I must go save my sister, let me-" but her words are cut off by a blood chilling scream that pierces her skull.

Watching her face screw up into one of pain, she forces her eyes open, saying, "You are too late, by the time you find them...it will already be done. Now listen to the cries of their souls and watch as your sister's body is altered just to receive praise from you, for I am none to pleased at how you failed to figure out I was warning you!"

Back in the hidden room

As Luna watches her mother's left wing get peeled away from her body and carried towards her, blood drips from the severed section with a portion of vertebrae sticking out of the muscle. When it is laid upon the wax paper, she looks up at Nathan's face through a black surgical mask illuminating his eyes in a soft, blue light. For some untold reason, a shiver of fear runs through her body as he cleans off the knife and lays it to the shaved section of her coat.

The strange sensation of the knife cutting through her skin is very unnerving to her, watching curiously as a vertical cut is made down the left side of her barrel. When her hide is peeled back, she watches Nathan set the knife down on a nearby cart after washing the blood off it. He heads to the cart where her mother's wing sits and gulps nervously, asking, "W-Will I be able to fly once this procedure is over?"

Pushing the cart over to Luna, he says, "It is too soon to tell, unfortunately, but I will know right away if this will work or not if your magic circuits connect to the circuits inside your mother's wings." As he picks up the wing and lays it against the same spot her mother's wing came from, he mutters to himself, "--Segments from where the tail connects to the spine."

Luna watches him trace an outline on her body, then begins cutting her muscles way rather delicately and laying them back against her folded hide. When he begins to split one of her vertebrae as cautiously as he can, she watches the split halves be laid down on the other cart. After making sure the area is free of bone debris, he takes hold of the wing and lays it in place beside her spine.

Nathan hums a tune to himself as he works tediously to ensure that he has the right nerve before attaching it to the nerve ending in her mother's wing, then moves on to quickly splice the wing's artery into the proper artery running down the inside of her spinal column. With little room to work, he manages to make it work as he starts to sing, "With a slice, and a shave...I bring your body closer to its most perfect imperfect state. Reattaching the severed ends to previously unknown ends is a favorite of mine, oh how selfish ponies can be..."

While listening to the creepy song, she lays on the table as he works to attach her mother's wing to her body when a burning sensation comes over her back, asking in a pained voice, "Is it...normal for my back to be burning like this daddy?"

Using magic to enhance his vision, he looks inside her body and watches as the magic circuits start to fuse to the new ends spliced to them, saying, "Fascinating..." Once he notices that her arteries, muscles and nerves are reconnecting by themselves, he says, "Utterly remarkable, little Lulu, your body is knitting itself back together as if this is how you were meant to be in the first place. There is a much more significant chance that you will be able to fly once your body recovers from this intensive surgery."

Tears slip from her eyes as she watches Nathan finish up with her wing, trimming her coat back to match the edges of her mother's coat so they fit back together seamlessly. Once one side is finished, she watches as Nathan stitches up the cut gently before taking the cart and his scalpel back over to her mother. Seeing her mother's head lying on the table, breathing hard, she smiles and says, "Look mother, your wing is now a part of me! I can feel the magic flowing into them!"

Smiling weakly at her daughter, she says, "I am so glad that one wing was accepted, but we are only halfway through the procedure." She then goes silent as she feels Nathan start working on her other wing.

Equina gasps as she thinks over how this is possible, asking herself out loud, "I just don't understand how this could be...Luna was born a Unicorn, not an Alicorn. Just what is going on?"

Just then, a sinister chuckle sounds within her dimension as a familiar voice says, "Awe...is the answer not coming to you, Equina? If it was any more obvious, there would be a snake right beside you about to strike."

Turning her head to find the snake, she finds a desert rattlesnake just behind her and blasts it with magic before it has a chance to attack her. Whipping her head back toward the source of the voice, unable to see it anywhere and says, "DISCORD, WHAT HAVE YOU DONE NOW!"

Chuckling, Discord continues to speak into her dimension, saying, "Oh, what haven't I done? I've stolen the wings of an alicorn before birth, but now I find myself rather bored watching your ponies live in harmony... Therefore, I am going to go have myself a bit of fun at your expense..." then snaps his fingers and puts her into a cage where she is unable to use her magic.

Fuming mad at Discord, she shouts, "YOU WILL PAY FOR THIS DISCORD, I SWEAR!"

As the surgery continues for several hours and closes in on midnight, the weakening mare watches her last wing be attached to her daughter's body. When Nathan comments on a successful surgery, she watches him carefully trim the area to be as seamless as possible when she coughs up some blood, saying, "Nate, come here once you are finished, I must talk to you."

Looking over his shoulder at her, Nathan nods his head, saying, "Of course, dear. I am sorry for taking so long with this, I just don't want our precious Luna to have a nasty scar as plain as day on her side."

The burning sensation heightens as her body begins to fuse the severed ends of the wing's magic channels, artery, nerves, and lastly, her muscles to her own body, breathing hard as it takes much longer for the burning sensation to fade away than it did the first wing, asking, "Is everything as it should be, daddy?"

Finishing the last few stitches, he enhances his vision with magic and examines the internal structure of the base of her new wings and runs his hand over the slightly noticeable bump in her spine where her wings join with the spinal column, saying, "Hmm...it appears that your body's healing ability took quite a toll to attach everything together, it seems to have exhausted almost all of your magic to have mended the cut muscles together along with the magic circuits, nerves, blood vessels, and even the bone itself. However, you have a bit of growing ahead of you as your other vertebrae will need to be larger to match the size of your mother's vertebrae. Now I shall let you say farewell to your mom before I send you off to sleep."

Turning her eyes to her mother, she attempts to lift her head, but can't as the anesthetic is still affecting her, saying, "I wish that you could survive after having your wings removed, mommy, it doesn't seem fair that only I get to say goodbye."

As tears fall from the weakening mare's eyes, Nathan gets an idea and says, "Now why didn't I think of that before...silly me." He then makes his way to the split vertebrae he removed from Luna, saying, "I can replace the vertebrae I took from you, however you will not be able to walk again as this vertebrae is too small for your adult spine. Would you like me to proceed?"

Not wanting to miss a chance to say goodbye to both of her daughters, she sighs out heavily, saying, "Yes, please do what you must to make that happen, for I wish to spend as much time as possible with you all."

Nodding his head, he uses his magic to connect the portions that came from Luna to her own body, saying, "This might be a bit intense for you when I attempt to magically fuse the ends together, but your body will be more or less complete with sections of your daughter's skin I had to cut away."

As Luna watches Nathan channel his light red magic to hasten the healing process, it takes nearly an hour to finish both sides as she looks upon her mother, saying, "Now we have more time together, I'm so glad mommy!"

Nathan looks at Luna's eyes as they start to get heavy with sleep, making his way over to her and lifts her head to slide a pillow under it, saying, "Get some sleep sweetheart, I will tend to you and your mother's needs in the morning." When they both close their eyes and drift off to sleep, he caresses the weakened mare's face tenderly, saying, "I will not be going anywhere for a good long while, dear."

When morning finally comes, Celestia bangs on the door to Nathan's room in the old castle and barges in once it opens, saying, "Where is my sister and mother at, you cretin!"

Nathan shuts the door behind her roughly, saying, "They are both resting soundly, do try to keep your voice down as they are recovering. If you have business with me, get on with it or get the bloody hell out of here."

Huffing with annoyance, she says, "You have no power over where I can go in this castle, and my sister and I are both princesses. You can't tell me who I can or can't visit!"

Grabbing her and dragging her to a chair, he sits down and lays her across his lap, saying, "What did I tell you about your voice?" then brings his hand up and back before bringing it down full force on her rear, making a sharp smack ring out through the room as he does it several more times.

Her tail hikes up at being scolded and spanked, surprising herself at learning she likes to be punished and cries out as her rear really begins to burn from the spanking, saying, "I'm...I'm sorry!"

Nathan brings his hand down upon her backside again as her coat turns a shade of red, saying, "What did you say, I didn't hear you."

Breathing heavily as she starts to sob, she says, "I'm...sorry for being a bad girl...papa."

Spanking her one last time, he says, "Much better, now you've learned your lesson." then feels her whole body shudder underneath him as she squirts over the palm of his hand and goes limp. Turning his gaze to her face, he grabs a fistful of her mane and jerks back on it, causing her to let out a naughty-sounding moan, saying, "What kind of disgraceful princess finds satisfaction in this kind of thing?"

A silly post-orgasmic smile crosses her face as she stares up into Nathan's eyes and says, "A naughty one...I'm a bad princess papa, so please punish me more." then uses her magic to pull his head down to hers and kisses him deeply for a moment.

Once he can pull away, he shoves her off his lap roughly and says with a huff, "I will certainly do that later, but not now and certainly not in this room as I have to tend to your mother's and sister's needs. Do you wish to help me, or did you come to annoy your sister again?"

Lying there sprawled out on the floor, she sighs and looks away in shame, saying, "I just wanted to make sure that my mother is alright."

Nathan sighs and places his right arm over her back and under her belly, saying, "How sad it is that your sister was just an afterthought after all. You really are such a spoiled and ungrateful princess, you know that?" then takes her to where her mother is lying on the bed, closing the curtain behind them, saying, "Your mother made it through just fine, as did your sister if you care at all. Due to the procedure, your mother will never walk again, but will continue to live out her days if her body allows it. I will be quite busy with tending to both of their needs, which means I will have limited time to see other patients."

Looking upon her mother's frail form without her wings causes her heart to ache at how she will never get to fly ever again, drawing a sad sigh from her as she says, "You take care of my sister, and I will tend to my mother's daily needs. I do not wish to see her any time soon for what she chose to do to our mother..."

It takes a year and a half for Luna to make a recovery and be able to start working on strengthening her back muscles again after being waited on by Nathan, working on her exercises with him in the room with her, saying with an annoyed huff, "I am just glad that you finally learned to stop making me food with cabbage in it, especially since that dreadful night where you fed me cheese and cabbage."

Nathan chuckles as he recalls that night, saying, "I am sorry for doing that, I spent a couple hours bathing you with a sponge as well as cleaning and sterilizing the room after your...explosive episode." Running his right hand along the barely visible indented scars, he smiles fondly and pulls Luna's head towards him and kisses her on the forehead, saying, "This has to be my finest work ever, Little Moon. The scars are only visible in the right light and you have to know where to look in order to see them at all, it would take one chance in a hundred thousand for any other pony or creature to notice the slight lines indented in your skin. I will always treasure you and treat you as my own flesh and blood, should you ever need help, daddy is always here for you sweetheart."

As Nathan pulls her close in a hug, she wraps her new wings around his back along with her forehooves and nuzzles her nose into him, taking his scent in and letting it soothe her, saying, "Thank you for my new wings..." Feeling comfortable around him, she then lets her barriers down and says, "I love you, daddy. I'll always be a good little daughter for you."

Holding his hand behind her head against his shoulder as her mane floats around his hand, he feels complete inside and looks out at the beautiful night sky, saying, "Many silly ponies don't fully realize how beautifully you bring the night to them, your sister's sunrise just can never compare. I will always do whatever I must to keep you safe, sweetheart."

Smiling widely at the praise, she nuzzles against him further and feels herself accept him as her new parent, letting herself drift off to sleep in his arms to go deal with the troubles of her subjects, whispering happily, "Daddy..."
