The Rise of Passion

When the train stopped in Ponyville, almost everypony stepped off. Many of them were actually headed to Whinnyapolis, and had to reroute their course, whereas others just didn't want to be around Cozy Glow. Several dozen guards took their place, having previously been Cozy's victims, now peeled from the academy walls where they'd been stuck. They were unable to breach the compartment, however, as Cozy's magic repelled them. She did, however, clear a path for the conductor to come through.

"We've arrived in Ponyville," he said. "Would you please disembark my train? I'd like to go back to work, now."

"I will," nodded Cozy, "but I'm coming right back. We're bound for Canterlot, we just needed to stop here in Ponyville to pick up a few passengers."

The conductor looked around. "These guards?"

"No, they're not with us, but we don't mind them tagging along." Cozy stood up. "Hold the train. We'll be back as soon as our party is assembled." She turned and walked off the train, with Gallus and Twilight behind her.

"Who are we picking up?" asked Twilight, leaning up and whispering in Gallus's ear.

"We have seven agents in the area, but I'm feeling generous," smiled Cozy. While Twilight had asked Gallus, Cozy was always listening. "So, pick one of your friends, Twilight. We'll bring just that one with us."

Twilight hadn't thought about that. She couldn't pick one over the others normally. Having to pick one in this situation was too much. Still, having one friend was better than none. "The others won't be harmed?"

"Not at all," smiled Cozy. "They will be as safe after your decision as they are right at this very moment."

Twilight considered her options. Rarity and Pinkie Pie would be glad to be able to move again, but would Cozy give them full control, or just bring them along? A rubber doll would not be very comforting. A dog would, so she could bring Applejack, but she harbored animosity toward Starlight and Gallus. That would just cause an extra fight that could see Applejack put down in front of her. That would be a bad idea. And as there would be another pony that would start a fight on that train, there was only one option remaining.

"I would like Fluttershy to come with me. But I'd like Rainbow to stay here with Zephyr."

"Making extra demands, are we?" chuckled Cozy. "Oh, very well. Gallus, this is where we part ways. Collect Trixie and your motley crew, and meet us back at the train."

As Gallus turned and escorted Twilight to the school, Cozy made her way into the Everfree forest, making her way to Zecora's hut. Some of the guards stopped following her at the edge of the forest, some began whispering as they walked, and others just kept going. She was kind of fond of the latter group. They were either intelligent enough to know where she was headed, brave enough to follow her despite the rumours, or dumb enough to not be paying attention to where they were going.

She didn't go far into the forest. Zecora's hut was perhaps a five-minute walk, and she was outside with her basket of herbs. "You have come to visit me? And you've brought along some guards, I see..."

"It's time, Zecora," said Cozy. "You're coming with us."

"Indeed, I am." Zecora stood up. "Just give me a chance to stow away these herbs and plants."

She disappeared into her hut, and ten minutes later, came back. She was partially armored, wearing a wooden cuirass and battle mask, but not carrying a weapon.

"You know, I could just cast a protective spell over you. Even then, I doubt the princesses would attack you directly when it's clear that this little coup was my idea."

"One can never take too much care," answered Zecora. "This is not the time to be laissez-faire."

"Fair enough," shrugged Cozy. "Come, we need to pick up Fluttershy before we go."

Zecora began walking back toward Ponyville with Cozy joining her. "And what is the purpose of this impromptu visit? This isn't just to stroke your ego, is it?"

"Hardly. We're going to grant Fluttershy temporary freedom from her bond. Twilight needs to know that her good behaviour will be rewarded, and she has been well-behaved."

They came up to the front door and pried it open. Fluttershy was on the couch, holding Rainbow down so she didn't slip off from Zephyr's powerful thrusts. Despite how focused they had been in their activities and how little they were eating, with the exception of what came out of the others, Zephyr was looking great. Any fat he'd had was gone now, and had been replaced with muscle. He had clearly-defined abs now, and Fluttershy's thighs has never looked leaner. The girls both had pregnant bellies, though they weren't completely full just yet.

With the glow of Cozy's horn surrounding Fluttershy's head, the mare nearly collapsed. She had been fully aware the entire time, but unable to control herself. Even now, she still wanted to ride Zephyr's cock, but found that she could at least resist its pull.

"Stand up," commanded Cozy. "You've made bail."

"What bail?" panted Fluttershy. "I didn't do anything!"

"You were simply in the way," answered Cozy. "You're not in the way anymore, and Twilight Sparkle has requested your presence. If you'd rather go back to the trance, I can put you back and just tell Twilight that you don't want to see her."

"No!" answered Fluttershy. "I'll go." She turned back to the other two. "Are they going to be okay?"

"As they can be," answered Cozy. "Come."

"I think I've done that too many times, lately," joked Fluttershy. Nevertheless, she followed Cozy out of the cottage and down the street to the train station. She was covered in her brother's semen, and it was dripping from almost every orifice, but the streets were empty, with most of the doors barred and shutters shut. Nopony wanted to end up caught up in Cozy's web, lest they suffer at the hooves of the princesses for their transgressions. That meant that the only ponies to see Fluttershy like this were the guards, and they had seen her before she could possibly hide or clean herself, so she wasn't overly concerned about them.

When they reboarded the train, Cozy banished most of the guards to the next carriage to make room for the main group, plus Fluttershy, Twilight and Flurry. Twilight immediately ran up and hugged Fluttershy, instantly regretting it as she was covered in sticky cum. Despite that, she didn't let go, holding fast to her friend. She was almost afraid to let go.
