Chapter 5: Careful How Deep You Go

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Sweetie Belle ran her hand over an empty wall. "I would say its impossible if I hadn't already seen it happen once." The blank wall she had her hand against was originally a door leading to the storm room. Now it was just a blank space. One would never know there had been a door there originally. She gripped the key around her neck with her other hand. She slowly took it off and jammed it where the door had been. The key just pecked at the blank wall. Didn't even leave a mark.

"Worth a shot."

She put the key back around her neck before moving over to the only other door in the room aside from the one she came through. It was glassy, but with impossible to see through blurry kind of glass. She grasped the latch, finding it easy to open. On the other side, she found the room seemed a bit off. She could see the hallway slanting downwards, the whole thing submerging itself into some unknown depths. There were clearly lights down there but she could not tell how deep it was. She considered checking it out anyways but worried about how deep it was. Without Silverstream around, she could be in trouble.

"Then again, this is reconnaissance. I could just take a quick dip and see how far it goes." She took a step forward and paused. "But what if this water is like the other stuff. I could black out in there if I stay too long like last time." She shook her head, deciding it would be better to have her underwater friend as a back up.

She looked around again, noticing that there was a very small door to her left. It was made of the same material as the walls which is why she hadn't noticed it at first. Getting down on her hands and knees, she turned the knob. The door opened, revealing a passage way she would have to crawl through.

It was dark, very dark. So dark that she couldn't tell if the light at the far end was real or not. But it still beat trying to swim down a possible mind altering watery decent. She bent her head down, entering as she slowly crawled along, putting her hand far ahead of the other. Going at a brisk crawl. The darkness was already unsettling enough and she just wanted to get to the other side. She began to really quicken her pace.

That would prove to be a mistake as just a little ways out, she felt her outstretched hand sink suddenly. There was no floor to push against. There was nothing at all. Letting out a small cry of surprise, Sweetie Belle attempted to right herself. Only to panic and fall forwards more. Her hands slapped against the wall as her legs came tumbling out, she flipped over, falling back first. She could only cry out again in hopes that someone heard her. "AHHH!"

She fell only a short ways though, surprised to feel something that felt like fabric cushion her back as she laid there for a second, she was about to move to get up when the fabric gave way and light filtered into her vision.
The fabric sheet she had landed on had torn away from what was holding in up on one side, now causing her to fall forward, hooves first.

She hit the water seconds later, feeling bubbles rush around her. She blinked, now floating around in a more well lit area. She rubbed her sore ass, having been unable to fall without abusing it slightly against the water's impact. Her lungs reminded her that air was important to as she let out a few bubbles before swimming back to the surface.

As her head came up, she gasped in some air, blinked a few times and looked around. The room was fairly large with a massive pool that went from one end of the room to the other, with only a small stretch of hard surface on the opposite sides. Palm trees and large bushes covering the walls, clearly fake but made to looking somewhat real. They seemed to be building into the wall. Some of the trees were dipping into the water though. There were underwater flowers all around the submerged walls as well as vines.

Everything looked alive but at the same time, felt a bit fake. Even still, there was some skylights letting in what looked like sunlight at first, only to show to be a special looking bright light on closer examination.

At one end of the large pool, there was a small place one could stand and Sweetie Belle could see a small tent was setup with a few lounge chairs. At the opposite side there was more flora but also just enough room to casually stand as well. She couldn't see any doors but they could have been blocked by tropical assortment.

The unicorn quickly swam over to the side with a tent, glad to see a towel sitting on one of the lounge chairs. She slowly got out and grabbed the towel, drying off her hair for the first time in days aside from air dry. As she wrapped the towel around herself, she sat down and sighed, finding the scene to be pretty relaxing.

Sure, she was now probably stuck for awhile, but it wasn't like her friends would have a hard time finding her if she just stayed put. Glancing up at the ceiling, she could see a blanket was hanging loosely, most likely the one she had fallen through. She guessed it was originally covering up the hole and making the room seem un-attached. Not sure who would design it in such a way but maybe this is why the door was hard to notice at first.

Just as she felt her eyes begin to droop, with what sounded like distance ambient music playing off somewhere, she saw a figure emerge from the flora on the opposite side. She blinked and stared, seeing that it was her Changeling friend from earlier. She was currently loosening her loin cloth and slowly stepping out of it. She stretched out, the unicorn finding it hard to look away from her incredible ass and wonderful tits. She couldn't help but wonder if Changelings always look hot or if they made themselves look that way.

Either way, she was transfixed, watching silently as the Changeling stepped forward and dove into the water. She swam a few strokes before shifting to her back and floating out towards the middle. She seemed to be in deep thought, most likely why she hadn't noticed Sweetie Belle yet.

Soon her eyes did seem to look over at the hanging blanket. Her gaze then glanced back at where Sweetie Belle was sitting. She seemed to smile and nod. Before quickly moving to submerge herself and swim deep under the water. She could now see that there was some sort of tunnel connecting the pool to somewhere else and she was heading for it.

"Wait, hold on. I have questions for you!" She called out. The Changeling either didn't hear her or chose not to stop. Either way, she was not about to lose sight of her again. She dropped the towel and dove back into the water. She pushed and kicked as hard as she could, doing her best to catch up.

She swam hard against the water, seeing the underwater tunnel that was dim but well lit. It was just big enough for one person to swim through at a time. She followed her in, swimming a little ways through it and soon finding a good amount of light filtering into what looked like some sort of underwater grotto. The stone work seemed fake but it was hard to tell. There were rings of stone work with indents going all the way up in a somewhat circle that got smaller as it went up. The very top had some kind of bright light shining down from above that seemed to be mimicking sunlight.

In the middle of the grotto, about half way up, was a section of rock pointing out, just big enough for someone to lay across. There, the Changeling was currently laying on her stomach, arms folded, her head resting on her arms and hooves laying lazily behind her. She smiled as Sweetie Belle swam up to her, hovering a bit.

There were small pipes running along the grotto, shooting out air bubbles. She took one into her mouth, taking in some air before turning back to the Changeling. She did her best not to stare to much as her incredible naked form, instead mouthing.

"I have questions, how are you going to answer like this?"

She pulled out and raised up an hand, pointing at the wall behind her. Golden Equestrian letters began to appear at eye level with Sweetie Belle.

Will this work?

Sweetie Belle nodded and mouthed. "Ok, first question, are we outside of Equestria?"

Gold letters appeared and formed. "Yes."

"Where are we?"

The golden letters disappeared only to be replaced. "I was never told a name. I like to call it the Pool Realm. But I am sure you can come up with a better name."

Sweetie Belle turned and took another swig of air before mouthing. "Are you alone?"

She seemed to think for a moment before shaking her head, letters appearing behind her again.

"I have the Entity. It sends messages to me telepathically. And sometimes will send me images in my dreams."

Sweetie Belle looked around her. "The Entity?"

She grinned and waved her hand in a circular motion. "This whole place. It thinks, feels and has needs."

The unicorn felt her heart drop down into her hooves. "What does it want with us?"

She shook her head slowly, noticing the unicorn in front of her looking a bit more pale. "Relax. It does not wish to harm you. If anything, it wants to make you happy."

The Changeling paused, thinking for a moment as she put a finger to her chin. "It prefers to keep its cards close, so to speak. But I can tell you that we work together for a similar goal. That is why it allows me to roam freely."

"And that goal is?"

She shook her head again. "Sorry, I am not allowed to say... At least not yet. Just know that we mean you no harm and only hope that you continue to explore and enjoy each others company."

"I have a hard time believing that. But I a can't deny I have been enjoying myself here. Can't argue about the amount sex I have been getting lately. Still though, finding out that I have a small captive audience is a bit strange." She mouthed, hoping her bit of snark would carry over.

Sweetie Belle bit her lower lip as a thought came to mind. She took another swig of air before turning back to her. "Is that part of the reason I feel so strange here lately. I have been feeling... Super horny for lack of a better word since I got here. Not just that, but even just a feeling of euphoria at times."

The Changeling got up and moved into a sitting position with her legs over the end of the pillar. Sweetie Belle found her eyes locked between her legs, trying desperately to look away. Looking up wasn't any easier with those wonderful melons she had on. She watched the Changeling bend forward a bit and grin, her arms crossed. "And that is sort of by design. Again, I cannot say why. But I can assure you that it does help with our goal."

She moved her arms out and stretched out. Her head cocking for a second before the words faded and were replaced. "Sorry, that is all the time I have for today. The entity is calling me and I must answer its call."

Her body began to fade, seemingly disappearing from her spot. Sweetie Belle reached a hand out. "Wait, at least tell me your name!" She meant to mouth it but accidently screamed it out loud. She felt some water rush into her mouth. She gagged and went over to the air tube. She breathed out through her nose, took a few seconds to regain control of her breathing. Thankfully she did not actually swallow any water.

Once she had a handle on it, she turned around, just in time to see some golden letters on the wall slowly fade with a single word. "Juicy."

She reached out, feeling around the stone pillar. She was gone. Leaving her with several things to think about.

With not much else to do, she began to quickly swim back. Her mind was racing though. Mixed emotions were currently assaulting her mind. On one hand, this place was a like a weird paradise and was clearly designed to help instill good vibes all around. On the other, there is a weird Entity and Changeling behind the scenes pulling strings for reasons she couldn't even comprehend just yet. But it had something to do with all these strange feelings.

She pushed forward, soon exiting the tunnel, breaching the surface and gasping in some air. She slowly swam back over to the lounge area.

Once back on land, she dried off and rewrapped the towel around her body before collapsing onto the chair closest to the tent. She laid there, still trying to wrap her head around everything. She put her hands behind her head. Her eyes glanced around, unsure about how to feel.

Right now, something was technically watching her. Had been watching her. But she couldn't see or feel anything there. As far as she could tell, she was completely alone. She pushed that thought to the back of her mind for now. There was nothing more she could do anyways.

As she laid there she felt her eyes droop as she found herself passing out for an unknown amount of time. It was only because she heard a voice call out that she even woke up at all.

As her mind came back to her, she heard Button's voice call out again. "Sweetie Belle, are you down there?!"

She took a big breath and called out. "Yeah, I'm down here!"

There was a pause before she soon saw Button come diving into the water with a loud splash. He came back up, gasping as he looked around him. "Whoa, this has got to be the coolest room so far!" He looked around till he spotted Sweetie Belle and waved. The towel wrapped unicorn stood up and waved back.

He turned and placed an open hand next to his mouth. "Alright, send down the rope!" A long rope soon descended.

Followed quickly by Silverstream jumping into the water yelling, "Cannon Ball!" on the way down.

She managed to create a massive splash, completely soaking Button. He shook some of the water from his hair and rolled his eyes. Silverstream came back up, rubbing her ass as she did so. "Ow, ow, ow... Too high for a cannon ball!"

Button chuckled and grasped the rope. "You did make sure to really secure this thing right?" He pulled it, only to watch as the top of the rope came loose and fell in-between them. His eyes fell on Silverstream with a glare.

"Oops." She backed away a bit. "I may have forgotten to tie it to the table like you said. I was a bit distracted."

He took a deep breath in and let it out slowly. "By what, exactly?"

"Well you mostly, silly. And thinking about what we were going to do, all three of us later. This bird needs her daily filling."

Button sputtered a bit at that. "Ok... And I thought I was the most horny one here."

Both turned and slowly swam over, Button now dragging the rope somewhat behind him. As he reached the edge, he sighed again, pulled himself up onto the edge, turned around and began to pull the rope towards him. He began wrapping it up in coil. "So..." He slowly turned to Sweetie Belle. "Mind telling us why you decided to wonder off so far? Surely you must have known that if you ran into any trouble and we couldn't find you, that would have been bad."

Silverstream stayed in the water but put her arms up on the edge. "Yeah, you don't have your trusty underwater breathing friend around after all. Besides, I like exploring this place too."

She sat down onto the chair, scratching the back of her head. "Yeah sorry about that. I really did not mean to go this far. I just sort of stumbled my way in here and..." She trailed off.

She bowed her head a bit. "Thankyou for coming and trying to help me out."

Button shook his head. "Well it would have been a cool rescue if someone wasn't too busy staring at my lower half the whole time." He turned around and sure enough, Silverstream was staring downwards. Her gaze went to the the ceiling just as she caught his gaze.

"Yeah sorry about that. Promise I will make it up to you later." She said, scooting away a bit as she felt him glare at her.

Sweetie Belle raised her hand. "I promise to do the same." She tapped her hoof a bit. "But in the mean time, I have found out some interesting things while down here."

Button slowly got out and sat down on the lounge chair next to her, dropping the rope next to him. "Alright, what have you got for us?"

Silverstream leaned forward a bit, clearly curious as well. She looked between them and nodded. "I can tell by your face you found something juicy."

"Interesting choice of word there actually." SB said with a chuckle.

The ever adventurous unicorn quickly went over how she was looking for clues about the key, how she stumbled in here and about what the Changeling had told her.

As she finished with a name that was left behind, Button was looking increasingly intrigued while Silverstream snorted at the name. He leaned forward a bit as she finished her tale. "This is a lot to take in. But it does help me understand a bit better why we have been so horny lately. Not like there is a lot we can do about it though. I am not about to say no to some some crazy sex any time soon either. But it does have me curious as to what this entity and this Juicy character get out of this."

Silverstream nodded. "Right now though, I am just as curious about what is in that tent over there?" She pointed at the green looking tent. Button got up and went over to the tent. He unzipped the entrance and looked in. "I suppose this could be our temporary base until we can find a way back." He took step inside. There was a single sleeping bag, a few jugs of water and some snack bars. "I wonder if this belongs to that Changeling or if the Entity provided this. Maybe its a bit of both."

He turned back to Sweetie Belle. "Either way, looks like we have stuff to help keep us going for awhile."

Silverstream stretched out. "I gonna go check out that grotto SB mentioned. I'll be back in a bit." She dipped below the water, her body transforming quickly before shooting off towards the tunnel.

Button went back over to Sweetie Belle who rolled her shoulders. "You know... I do think I should at least throw you a bone for coming to help me out so quickly. Got any fun ideas in mind?" She said while staring half lidded into his eyes.

The Earth pony gulped but nodded. "Actually yeah, there is this position I have always wanted to try. Please get down on the floor and lay on your stomach."

She raised an eyebrow at that but nodded. She took off her towel and laid it on the ground, then grabbed another to help use as a pillow. Laying down with her arms across the rolled up towel, she wiggled her butt in anticipation.

Button knelled over her. "Its called the speed bump position. I have seen some... Art of this one."

He lined up his dick before practically crawling on top of her. He reared back, soon feeling his dick penetrate those sweet, wonderful walls. He breathed in her scent, let out low coo as he slowly began to thrust in a decent rhythm. Sweetie Belle bit into her towel a bit, feeling his fairly large member begin to slowly pound her insides.

Her pussy was becoming slick, feeling like he could really start to go to town on her. He began to pick up the pace, slamming his dick in as far as it would go. Gosh she felt incredible. Like her pussy was clenching around his dick but seeming to be begging for more.

Sweetie Belle shifted, the position was bit uncomfortable but she did enjoy the feeling of Button pounding her insides. She let out a low moan, trying to enjoy what she could.

Feeling her jerk around a bit as she moaned and panted, he kept going, feeling his peak rising up to great him. He picked up the pace, slamming in as hard as he could. SB let out low cry as fluids splashed across his dick and onto the towel. He slammed back in, feeling his own torrent release deep within her. As the two let out a loud, hard moan, he slumped down on top of her. White liquid began to slowly leak out.

Button took a moment to catch his breath before slowly crawling back and dislodging himself.

"Wow, not bad... But I think I liked it better when I could feel up those breasts of yours." He said, in between gasps.

Sweetie Belle turned and laid on her back. "Yeah, not the most comfortable position in the world. But I am glad we got to try something new." She slowly got back up and made her way over to the lounge chair. "I'm gonna grab a nap. Then we can start figuring a way out of here.

Button nodded as he headed back towards the water. "Alright, I am going to go check on Silverstream." He jumped into the water and began swimming over to where the tunnel was. He took in a big gulp of air before submerging under the water and working his way on in.

His eyes adjusted as he swam, soon finding a cool looking grotto with lighting coming down from above. Floating in the middle of it was Silverstream, looking almost regal in the light. She seemed to be lost in thought but turned and waved as he is swam in.

He looked around, there was not much to see aside from the bubbles slowly rising to the surface. Then he glanced back as Silverstream and he knew what he had to do. He could see it in her eyes.

He swam up behind her, wrapping his arms around her as he connected his mouth with her beak. He could feeling air rush in and soon his hands found their way to her breasts. His dick was becoming hard again as he teased her back entrance. Feeling her moan into his mouth, he began to thrust forward, feeling his hard member crash into her walls.

She hummed and he began to work his way inside her, in and out, slowly pulling out before crashing back in. The two floated together, basking in each others bodies. Silverstream feeling his strong arms around her while Button felt her tight walls around his throbbing dick.

He moaned, feeling up her incredibly body as he pistonned in and out. The weightlessness making him feel strange but happy to feel someone lovingly moan within his mouth. He never wanted this feeling to end.

But soon, he felt his climax coming. He tried to hold out, but there just wasn't anything he could do as he felt his cum shoot out, deep into her core. Her talons clenched as she seemed to orgasm at the feeling.

He broke from the kiss for a second, attempting to dislodge himself and turn her around. He grinned at her before hugging her closely, feeling her warm breasts against his chest. The two embraced each other for a few seconds before Button returned for more air from his lovely lady.

The two continued to make out in warm silence as two green eyes watched from below. She wanted to keep watching but she had to also prepare. The next event was soon approaching and she had to make sure everything was set. Juicy turned and silently swam away, her heart rate increasing as she felt happiness unlike anything before. Things were going exactly as planned. Now they just needed one or two last little incentives.
