Crystal POV

To be honest, I did not encounter too many Griffons in my life. But these two had been fun. We chatted a bit longer before going our separate ways. Zitrus offered to accompany them to Haykjavic, but of course they had other plans, and went in a different direction.

Our group did go further in the north. For the rest of the day, we had had no more interesting encounters. When we reached a pine forest, we had chosen that place to settle down. Zitrus had built, like always, the tents and made some food for himself, while me, Blueberry and Savage were busy doing our sister time.

This time, it involved building a "house" with only the sticks laying around. It was not easy. We used three thick sticks to connect three branched trees together. This was the framework. Now we collected all kind of branches to “build” the walls and roof. It looked like a foal built it. And still I had the most fun doing it.

“It will not hoooooold”, Savage said after a small argument she had with me.

I was planning to add a thicker branch on the top. it was the perfect one for the job. It was the perfect size and had multiple smaller branches on it, which would cover the whole roof area. The only problem was that it was very thick and heavy. It was risky because the rest might break.

“It will hold, just see”, I said with confidence and used my magic to levitate it right on the top.

To the surprise of the others (and me too, to be honest) it did hold.

“See?”, I said and smirked in Savages direction.

Then a cracking noise from one of the framework branches made me give a worried look. I already expected that it would break, making the base give in and with that the rest of our construct. But somehow it held. I gave a sigh of relief.

“Now the only problem is that we cannot add any other stick without risking that it will fall apart”, Savage explained.

“We just need to stabilize it”, I said and gave an innocent smirk.

“And how are we going to do that?”, Savage asked and examined it.

On that, i didn't have an answer. Truth was, without doing anything, we could not continue on our work. But one wrong movement on it would turn our stick house to a stick pile.

I looked at Blueberry, but her neutral expression told that she was just as clueless as I was.

I then looked at Zitrus. He was further away, most likely not aware of what we were doing. He sat next to the campfire and watched it burn. He had already eaten and was just there… well, all alone.

It made me feel guilty. Whenever me, Blueberry, and Savage did something together,we never thought to ask Zitrus if he would like to join. Sure, it was more bonding as sisters than anything, and he did not have to join us every time (especially when we three had some mare talk) but still. We just left him there, building up the tents, cooking and eating alone without giving a thought about him and that he might feel left out.

I turned my head again in Blueberry’s direction. She followed my look and then gave a nod. She would not mind.

Savage was still examining our "house." I could only hope that she wouldn't care either. On the end, she was still very distance with him.

“Hey Zitrus, you want to join?”, I yelled over to him. Taken by surprise, his ear turned in my direction, and he looked over.

“Nah, it’s alright. You three have your fun”, he called back.

“Come on. We could use some pony with experience right now”, I pushed.

He gave in with a smirk, stood up and came in our direction.

“How do you know If I have experience with this?”, he asked as he pointed at our wooden “house”.

“Like you didn't build something like this at least once as a foal", I said with a laugh and gave him a slap on his flank with my wing.

I glanced at Savage and saw that she was unsure about this. But she did not say anything.

As expected, Zitrus had shown good knowledge. He had spent the rest of the day with us until we all went to bed. The next morning, I got woken up by Blueberry who put her head into the tent that I shared with Savage this night.

“Good morning you two. Time to get... What is that smell?”

I was still too sleep drunk to understand what she said. I hated mornings. You should sleep in the morning and not ask me about a smell that was just...

I opened my eyes wide as it hit me what smell she meant. The smell of two mares who had a lot of fun the night before they fell asleep.

Shit! Think fast! Shot through my brain.

“HATCHOOOO!”

I faked a sneeze at the same time my horn lit up. A magic blast hit Blueberry, knocking her back out of and away from the mare musk scented tent.

“Oops!”, I said sheepishly. Definitely not sorry.

Nice save, Savage said in thought speech.

She had easy to say, (or think), because i knew Blueberry would pay me back for this. But I put that knowledge to the side for the moment.

I gave a good stretch and stepped out of the tent into the cold morning. Savage followed right behind me.

“I'm going to get something to drink”, I heard Savage say and before I could turn my head in her direction there was a magic teleportation sound. Instead of being behind me, Savage appeared a short distance from our camp site. Next to a small river.

She was too far away for me to read her mind, but I could tell something was off. Savage never drinks. She was way too proud for that. I looked around and spotted Zitrus nearby. He was fixing tea and eating a can of bread that he found on the old battlefield. (Blueberry tried it to find out if it still was eatable even though it was over 200 years old. She said it was safe but terrible in taste.) I knew now what was going on.

Blueberry, can we go for a talk with Savage, I asked my blue sister in thought speech.

Blueberry looked towards Savage and nodded. With a neutral expression she followed me. When we reached her, Zitrus was out of hearing range.

“Savage, we have to talk”, I interrupted her while she was concentrated on the green strand in her mane. She was not even drinking.

“Hm? What is wrong?”, she asked. But in her mind, I could tell that she had an idea what it was about.

“this is getting out of hoof. The way you avoid Zitrus. You have to talk with him and try to work things out”, I said.

Savage turned her head away as she responded: “He avoided me too. So, why do I have to go to him? Why should he not come to me?”

“But he did but he does not anymore. He only feels unsure about your presence because he does not know how you would react.”

Savage still did not look at us. I sensed uncertainty and shame in her.

“Look sisters, I do not dislike or even hate him. But it is still hard for me to overlook the fact he's a pony.”

Savage now dared to look at us.

“He is a good pony. The best if I could even say that. But that’s what he still is: A pony.

I do see why creatures hate our kind. I do see what we did while we have been under the Goddess. We have been monsters. And I still cannot bring myself to look past the things others did to us. Attacking, killing sisters, raping...”

“And whenever you see Zitrus, you also see him as one such pony?” This time it was Blueberry who spoke.

Savage took a moment before she answered: “No, not that. But I do see the similarities. I see the pony part of him. I see the stallion he is. And stallions tended to rape alicorns because they were only able to think with their dicks.”

I did not know what to say on that. Or better, I did know but I didn’t want to. It was a memory that I was not proud of. More of the opposite. It brought back pain… But maybe it was just what was necessary for Savage…

“You know… I… also raped somepony once.”

All eyes were suddenly on me. Even Blueberry could not hide her surprise. The pressure forced me to look away when I started to tell the story.

“It was shortly after I left my wing. After spending a long time in research with Velvet Remedy, without any success, I looked for a way on my own. A way for alicorns to have foals.

Well, I was not in the best mental state then. I was angry at many things. That my wing sisters did not want to follow me, the wasted time I spent with Velvet, the fact that I still did not have a foal in sight.

Not to mention that the goddess's death wasn't all that long ago. In other words: I was unstable.

I came into a small village. The ponies there have heard that we alicorns changed so they did not attack me. Of course, they were still careful towards me but mostly they were friendly. It also had a good hoof full of stallions. My eyes soon fell upon a young unicorn stallion. He would soon become a father. His wife was carrying a foal and it was only a matter of time until she would give birth.

He was the perfect target. If he was able to get his wife pregnant, then surely, he could do the same for me. The only problem was that he rejected me. Not only was he very loyal to his relationship but he was also still scared of alicorns. So if he didn't want to i had to force him...

One day, when he was walking alone, I grabbed him with my magic and pulled him into a side alley. Hidden from all eyes. Just like a rapist from the books…

And then I fucked him… I used my magic to keep him trapped on the ground. Legs spread and his stallionhood good and exposed. Easy for me to ride him…

Of course, he wanted to scream, but I kept his muzzle shut with my magic. He also tried to break free, but he had no chance against an alicorn. He was helpless and at my mercy. And that was why he stopped resisting...

It is hard to tell but I guess he just… took it. He knew that there was nothing he could do so he just took it until it was over. no matter how much it went against his beliefs… And I, I just continued to ride him.

I hate to say but I did not even pay attention to him. I just wanted to get his load into me. I was so desperate that I was not able to think about what is right and what is wrong. I just moved my hips with full force. Enjoyed the moment and what soon would come…

It took a while, but at some point his body gave in, and I felt his semen filling me.

Something I often like to do after I slept with some pony is to enter their mind. To feel how satisfied they are. It always made me feel proud. Well, this time, it did not…

Now when I look back, it actually has some similarities with torture. It still is very different, but both breaks the victim.
He was laying there and did not move. Only his silent crying showed that he still was alive. His mind was nearly as empty. I could feel hate, humiliation and guilt. All this he was feeling, it was against himself. He felt like his own body betrayed him and that it was all his fault.

When I was there, still sitting on him, I realised what I did. I hurt an innocent stallion in a very brutal way. He might not have wounds on his body, but his mind had them for sure.

My own mind went blank, and I just flew away, leaving him in the side alley. I never dared to go back. Too deep was the guilty feeling. Too strong the pain…”

I took a moment to relax. These memories hurt me. A lot…

“From that day I never ever sleep again with any creature unless I know for sure that he or she is willing to do it. What I did there is unforgivable. And I hate myself for it.”

My eyes now fell directly on Savage as I said: “Yes, most rapists are male. Yes, unlike me, most do not learn their mistakes after one time. But that does not mean that my action was better. If there is one pony you should hate for raping, then that would be me.”

Savage was silent. I could sense a mix of shock and realization in her mind. She then slowly stood up.

“You are right… I will talk with Zitrus”, she said.

Blueberry and I watched as she made her way in Zitrus' direction. He was surprised as she sat across from him.
We could not understand from our position what the two said.

“Did you notice that she doesn't use we anymore?”, Blueberry asked me.

I gave a nod. Savage had changed a lot since we had met her.

“Is what you said true, did you really rape a stallion?”, Blueberry then asked me.

“I don't like to bring up this memory, but if is the thing that finally convinces them to get along, then it was definitely worth it”, I said.

From this distance, we watched as Zitrus pulled Savage into a hug. Savage was taken by surprise, but she soon accepted it and hugged back.

Author's Note

Hi all, I am back.

First, I would like to point out again, that I have no knowledge about raping. Writing this chapter was not easy for me since I had to research everything and it still might be wrong written. So, big pardon for that.
Second… well… I do not like to give away spoiler but let’s just say, if you think that the way Savage made such a strange fast turn, then you are right.
And third, like always, feel free to give any reviews.
