Equestria Girls: Remembering Your Names

"Dashie?"

Dashie opened her eyes, seeing the girl of her dreams standing over her, looking sad. She couldn't keep looking at Dashie, so she turned her back to her.

"Thanks for being there for me. I know I was a pain in your ass, but...thanks." She chuckled as she wiped a tear off her face. "I was so happy to being with you again, but I guess this is goodbye once more."

Dashie couldn't let it happen, but she was still dizzy. She tried to reach out to the white-haired girl, but her vision went bright.

"Just don't forget me, okay?" She looked back at her, smiling, then walked to the golden tree alone. "Dashie."

The image of the white-haired girl vanished, and Dashie woke up screaming for her to return. She was breathing heavily and feeling the sweat on her face. She couldn't believe what she had just experienced.

"Was that...a memory? Or was it a dream?"

She thought about it briefly, but the more she tried to remember, the quicker it faded from her mind until it became a blur.

"What is going on with me? Why do I keep having weird dreams that I can't remember?"

Dashie looked around, noticing she was in the school's infirmary. She was about to get up from the bed when she saw someone pulling the curtain back, revealing it was Adagio.

"Dashie!" she said with joy and relief. She was about to run up to her, but she stopped herself. A part of herself didn't want to show how much she worried for Dashie. Instead, her queenside came out. She crossed her arms and gave a cold stare. "You had me worried, underling!"

Dashie was surprised to see that, but then she remembered how much Adagio had put up a queen ego between them, as she believed Adagio had difficulty lowering her wall to others.

"Sorry!" she answered back, smiling.

Adagio huffed and marched up to the chair beside the bed. Even though she was close to Dashie and saw that she was okay, she didn't show her worry for her. She eyed her, trying to hold back her happiness.

"So what happened?" asked Dashie, not remembering much.

Adagio was surprised, so she answered, "Well, you collapsed and started to cough blood."

Dashie was shocked to hear that and quickly looked at her chest but did not see any blood. She even wiped her nose but felt no blood on her hand. She turned back to Adagio, asking if she was sure.

Adagio nodded but soon shrugged. "I think so? I swore I saw you coughing blood up after you collapsed on the ground." she started to play with the ends of the gym shirt, feeling uneasy after what she saw happen. "Your mom came running and carried you here."

Dashie knew her mother would ask questions and be overprotective when she saw her again. She sighed, not wanting to deal with it right now.

"How long was I out?" asked Dashie, rubbing her head.

Adagio answered her. "Long time. School just ended a few minutes ago. I have been here since your mom left."

"You stayed with me this whole time!?" Dashie asked with a big smile.

Adagio's cheeks were slightly pink. She didn't want to say anything, so she changed the subject.

"Anyway! I decided to hang out and keep speaking with you as you said about our...friendship." It hurt Adagio when she said that. "I don't want to lose it. I don't want to lose you."

Dashie could only smile. "You won't. I'm your friend and always will be." She smiled, hoping that would make Adagio happy.
But Dashie was too focused on the good thing that she didn't see the frown on Adagio's face or her hands balling into a fist.

"Y-Yeah, friends..."

Dashie kept smiling, not noticing the tone of her voice. With things patched up with Adagio, Dashie now needed to speak to the rest of Adagio's sisters. She was going to ask Adagio something but was caught off guard when she grabbed her hands and forced them on her chubby belly.

Dashie's mind was haywire as she blinked. She blinked again and slowly felt the softness of Adagio's stomach. Her eyes locked on her hands, squeezing the flesh. Adagio's face was bright pink, and she looked away from Dashie.

"Underling!" said Adagio, "Rub my belly like last time..."

Dashie repeated the last part of what Adagio said to her. "Last time...?" that's when memories of her groping Adagio's stomach and thighs hit her like a truck. Her head blew out hot steam, and her face became pure red.

Adagio looked back at Dashie, seeing her reaction. She was expecting her to say something, but instead, Dashie pulled her hands away and used them to cover her face in shame.

"Underling?"

Dashie wanted to die after what she did to Adagio. Why she acted so horny and groped her like that? It was wrong, but a part of her enjoyed doing it. It was like a primal side of her begging her to continue.

"Hey! Underling! I allowed you to grope me!"

Dashie peeked her eyes and saw Adagio giving her a mean and angry look. "I was the one who wanted you to, okay? So stop acting like you did something wrong, and you can rub my belly as much as you want!"

Dashie could see Adagio looking at her, her face red and her eyes trying not to look her in the eyes.

"God, I sound like a pervert!" Adagio said to herself in her thoughts. "Why am I telling her she can rub my belly?"

The two girls became pure red again and looked away from each other. The room became very quiet as neither one spoke. Their faces blushed, but then Adagio spoke.

"Umm...sorry, Underling. That was a weird thing to say. Sorry, I'm acting a bit weird lately."

Dashie sighed and shook her head. "Don't apologize. I should be the one who is sorry. I'm unsure why I did what I did, but I won't do it again. Let's forget it and act like it never happened."

Adagio didn't want to forget and acted like it never happened, but she nodded and agreed with Dashie. Sadly, the awkward silence returned. They both felt nervous. Neither one of them spoke, but their minds were screaming.

"Why am I feeling like this? Why did I want her to touch me like that?"

"Why did I grope her like that? And why do I want to touch her again?"

They both looked at each other. Dashie's hands twitched, and Adagio's face got warmer.

"It was weird. Right, Queen?" Dashie asked her, trying to act like her normal self.

Adagio nodded. "Very weird."

She was hoping that Dashie would ask her to grope her again. She would gladly accept, but Dashie coughed and explained why she wanted to talk to them.

"Listen, remember the underground lake?" she watched as Adagio nodded. "Well, I went back there during the night...Man, I can't believe I did that!" she said, realizing she had broken the law. With a quick shake of her head, she went back on topic. "Well, the lake lost its magical powers." Adagio quickly became invested in what Dashie was telling her.

"Really? Is that possible?"

Dashie nodded. "Yes, it is. I was running different tests on the water, but no matter what entered and came out, a copy never was made."

Adagio started thinking. "Maybe its magical energy was used up? Or maybe it's something else like it only works on certain days?"

Dashie shrugged her shoulders. "I don't know, but what I'm about to tell you is the real reason I'm telling you this."

Adagio was listening.

"During our first time down there, I found wall paintings. It told how an old man with a wizard hat placed something inside the lake and disappeared." She could see Adagio listening closely. "I think he is the cause of the lake and the copy-making."

Adagio considered what Dashie said. It didn't make sense. If this old guy was the cause, he had magic that Adgaio and her sister needed to recover their siren powers. She heard Dashie continuing.

"I took photos of the painting and searched for anything matching the old man. It took a while, but I found something about Canterlot's four hidden mysteries."

Adagio was stunned, but her eyes shined with curiosity. "You found something related to the old man, right?"

Dashie nodded and kept talking.

"Yes, the old man is known as the Bell Wizard for having bells on his hat. He showed up in this town many years ago, after its creation. Stories say he created the four hidden mysteries around the town. The first one is with the lake. I was really amazed how-"

Adagio was getting impatient. "Get on with it!"

"Well, the rest of the hidden mysteries are as follows." She raised her hand, making a one with her finger. "Eternal Flower. A flower that makes anyone live forever is hidden outside of town in the woods. The story says the wizard planted the flower in the woods and placed a magical barrier around it. Making it unseen to others."

"Second," she raised another finger. "The Memory Stone. A stone that can erase or change someone's memories. It's buried somewhere in town and impossible to find."

Adagio nodded.

"Third." She raised the final finger. "The Alicorn Amulet. Little is known about this one, but all the stories say the same thing."

Adagio watched her speak.

"If you wear the amulet, you will become a god."

Adagio placed her hand under her chin, thinking to herself. "Two magical artifacts can help us regain our powers and protect our papi! The last one, though, is becoming a god. We can rule this town and the whole world with a god's unlimited power!" Adagio's expression slowly became evil-looking, showing her true colors. "Unlimted power..."

"Adagio?" Dashie called out to her, noticing her weird, creepy smile.

Adagio looked back at her, her usual smile on her face. "So where are these magical Artifacts? There must be signs pointing to them, no?"

Dashie felt something was off but brushed it off. "Well, what I told you is what I find out about them and where they could be. The flower is in the woods outside of town; the stone is buried somewhere, and the amulet is in an unknown place. For that one, I need to search deeper."

Adagio smiled evilly. "Well, that's fine." She was about to change the subject, as she didn't want Dashie to get involved with her and her sisters' search for magical items to recover their powers—not after what happened in the mall. But before she could change the subject, Dashie spoke cheerfully.

"Let's start a club!"

"A club?" asked Adagio, a bit confused.

Dashie nodded. "Yes, a club. The four of us can search for these secrets together. I know we can find them faster than just you three looking for them." Dashie could see Adagio still being confused. "Didn't you say that you and your sisters are magical believers? That you look for magical things as a hobby?"

Adagio didn't know what she was saying at first. Her eyes widened, and her mouth opened when she remembered the awful coverup story she had told Dashie weeks ago.

"Oh, that's right! Y-Yeah! Magical believers that look for magical things as a hobby!" she waved her hand, laughing awkwardly.

Dashie smiled at her, then spoke.

"Let's do it together. It is a great way to get to know each other even more!"

Adagio couldn't believe what was happening. "Wait, what happened at the mall occurs again? I...we can't lose or see you get hurt again." Adagio stood up from her chair quickly, knocking it backward.

"But if we are a team, we can work together to avoid danger," replied Dashie.

Adagio wasn't listening anymore. She started to walk toward the curtain. "No, Dashie, listen..." She stopped, seeing flashes of her dead mother. Her heart was beginning to pound in her chest. "No, not again! I won't allow someone else to get hurt because of my actions!"

Dashie could see the worry on her face and reached her hand out to her. As she did so, Dashie saw the girl of her dreams, but her hair was semi-white, and instead of being dressed in all-white, she was wearing a rainbow jacket. She takes Adagio's place, their surroundings in a dark void, and the vast golden tree in the distance.

"I'm not allowing you or the rest of our friends to get hurt again! Each time you girls helped me, you all were almost killed for it! I'm not letting you girls follow me." She turned around, tears in her eyes.

"We all found each other again after you promised me you'd find me again! You all are my friends, and I don't want anything to happen to you all."

Dashie tried to reach her. She couldn't believe what the girl was saying or doing. She would go off alone without them because she didn't want them to get hurt.

"You are being stupid, sugar cube! We are here for each other, and we can do this together! No one is going to die. Don't you get it!? My honor... Honesty. Honesty will get you through the toughest situations, and trust will always lead you to the right path."

Dashie heard that Texan accent. She wanted to look to her sides but couldn't stop looking at the white-haired girl. Soon, Dashie heard more voices.

"I agree. You are being foolish! Don't let your emotions get in the way. Sure, not all of us will return from this final battle, but what I'm going to tell you is from the kindness of my heart. I'm happy to meet you and the others, and I'll gladly fight and give my life for the ones I love!"

"That's right," another voice said, but it sounded like it had no emotions or life behind it. "We love each other because we're not just friends. We're like sisters. I'll gladly be your shield to the bitter end, even if my body or shield falls apart. I'll keep protecting you and everyone else. That's my generosity to you and the rest."

"Sisters!?" shouted the girl. She was shocked by their words and then began to cry.

Dashie tried to step forward.

"No, don't say those things! Stop making this hard for me!" The girl screamed, the parts of her hair slowly glowing, slowly filling up the remaining part of her hair, and her rainbow jacket becoming white while her black shirt became pink. "Stop it! It's my burden, not yours!"

"No," another new voice said, the emotion in their voice sounded so tired. "Like it or not, we're going with you. We will help you. We won't allow you to go through this alone. So pick up that sad frown and turn it into a smile! Laughter is the best medicine, and we'll use that to beat the bad guy. No one gets left behind or forgotten, no matter what!"

Dashie felt like she knew these voices and had been friends with them countless times. She could see the girl trying not to break down, but she needed one final push, and Dashie knew it had to be her. She walked up to the girl, holding on to her, and with a big smirk, spoke to her.

"Don't worry. It's going to be okay,"

"How do you know?" cried the girl, trying to push Dashie away but failing as Dashie hugged her tight.

"I just do because I'll always be there. Always. Even when the day comes when I die, my soul will always find its way back to you, and the same goes for the girls. We'll be reborn and find our way back to you. You can't get rid of me that easy..."

Static filled the memory, replacing Dashie and the girl with a cyan pegasus and purple Alicorn for a split second.

"Can't get rid of all of us that easy! We'll be with you until the very end! That's my word!"

The girl tried to hold herself together as best as she could, but in the end, she finally broke down. She collapsed into Dashie's arms, sobbing.

"I hate you so much, Rainbow! You always act tough and cool when I'm the one who should act like that!"

"Nah," replied Dashie, smiling warmly. "You are the tough one, and I'm the cool one. It's our dynamic." Dashie suddenly heard laughter from the girl. "What's so funny?"

The girl leaned off of Dashie, smiling as she wiped away a tear. "You? Cool? Please, you are the biggest dork I've ever met. And I mean that in the nicest way possible."

This upset Dashie, but she soon heard the ghostly voices laughing at her. She told them to shut up, but that only made the laughter louder and made her blush.

"Rainbow?"

Dashie returned her attention to the girl before her, who looked happy and blushing.

"I always admire your loyalty not only to our friends but..." she placed her hands over her chest, closing her eyes, "...me. Your loyalty has always been what's driven me forward. Thank you, Rainbow, for being the cool and awesome person I know and love."

The girl's hair stopped glowing, and a white light appeared around them. She created a shield between them, preventing them from following her. Dashie placed her hands on the barrier, pissed off by what the girl had done.

"What the hell!? You can't do this!"

"Yes, I can. Goodbye, Rainbow and everyone. Please be safe. All of you!"

"Wait! Don't do this!"

Dashie's hand pressed against the invisible wall. She tried to break through the barrier, but a sudden pain came from her forehead.

"Ugh! My head!" She pressed her other hand against her head, trying to ease the pain; static filled the memory, and in the girl's place was Adagio as it flicked to her. Dashie looked at the fleeing girl, walking off alone into the darkness. "Damn it! Stop!"

Dashie pressed against the invisible wall again, putting all her strength into it. The pain in her head worsened, making her yell out in pain.

"Come back! I'll always be here for you, no matter what! Stop being stupid!"

She could feel the wall breaking as the cracks started to form around the palms of her hands.

"I can't lose her again! Come back! Come back to me!"

"DASHIE!?"

Her eyes snapped open. She gave it one last push, making the barrier shattered like broken glass, but she didn't have time to stand. She quickly rushed up to the girl, who already turned around in shock. Dashie didn't care what the girl said; she had to let her know.

"You aren't alone!"

She wrapped her arms around the girl and hugged her tightly as she kissed her, making her expression from shock to embarrassment.

"Dashie!?"

The white-haired girl pushed Dashie away, her face red as a tomato. Dashie didn't know why she kissed her or did it in the first place, but her mind was still in a haze so that she couldn't think straight. She grabbed the girl again, kissing her once more. This time, the girl didn't pull away. She allowed Dashie to kiss her. The white-haired girl's expression was full of mixed emotions when they parted lips.

"W-Why did you do that?"

"Because I..." Dashie was going to answer her, but she found herself back in the school's infirmary. The memory she had faded away, making her forget everything she saw, but the feeling was still there. "...I...I...huh?" she suddenly realized that she was holding on to Aadgio, who, for some odd reason, was red as a tomato. "Queen?"

Dashie quickly let her go. She didn't remember when she held Adagio or got up from the bed, but Adagio soon repeated what she had asked before.

"Why did you do that?"

Dashie wondered what she meant but quickly guessed it was about holding her. She gave a nervous smile.

"Because I care about you! No matter what, I'll always be there for you! You can't get rid of me that easy! No one does! Got that!?"

Dashie gave her a thumbs-up and a big smirk but stopped, seeing Adagio more red than before.

Adagio looked away from her and sounded off as she let her Queen side out. "Fine! I'll allow it to help us, but no more if you ever get hurt again." She faced her again, pointing her finger at Dashie's nose. "GOT IT! IF YOU GET HURT AGAIN, IT'S OVER! WE WON'T BE FRIENDS, AND WE WON'T SPEAK TO YOU AGAIN! Because...because..."

Dashie knew what she meant and held her hand up, making Adagio stop. "Got it. Because friends don't get friends hurt."

Adagio pulled her hand away and nodded as her blush became more evident. "Good! Now that you know, I have to get Sonata and then Aria. I need to tell them what will happen from here on out." She headed for the door but stopped at it. "Rest up. I have no idea what happened, but you seem to be okay. I left my number with your Mom to talk later, okay?"

She didn't give Dashie a chance to say anything as she walked out of the room and down the empty hall. She stopped and covered her face once she was far from the infirmary.

"Why did she..."

Adagio could remember Dashie getting out of bed, rushing to her, holding her, and soon kissing her. The memory of the events made her blush again, which caused her to shake her head.

"No, no, no! Why did you do that, Dashie!? What were you thinking!?"

She took a few deep breaths, trying to calm down. Once she had calmed, Adagio walked away.

"Why did you say and do that, Dashie?"

She touched her lips, remembering the feeling. She soon smiled and started to skip down the hall...unaware that Aria was watching her as she opened a classroom door.

"She came from the infirmary, didn't she? And why is she skipping like a little schoolgirl?"

Aria closed the door and looked down at the end of the infirmary.

"I'll ask her when the time is right, but now..."

Aria walked to the infirmary and placed her hand on the doorknob. She wanted to open it, but something was stopping her. She grits her teeth in annoyance, then sighs, pulling her hand away.

"Coward."

She turned to her side after hearing that voice. She was pissed, but her anger faded when she realized who it was.

"Oh, it's you teach."

Sunny was leaning on the wall. She had her arms crossed and smiled at her student.

"I knew you to be here after telling you what happened to Dashie. I wanted to know if you would come here or not. Guess I'm right again, as always."

Aria looked away, crossing her arms. "I was checking up on her."

"But you got cold feet, right?"

"What did you expect, teach? After what happened that day, how could I face her, let alone talk to her? I can't even face myself. What can I say to her?" Sunny could see Aria's regret and anger for herself after Dashie got hurt. "She's my Alpha! Sure, I followed her orders in leaving her behind so she could fight that twisted copy of my big sister, but seeing her there..." Aria clutched her hands into fists, shaking. "Dead while I ran away, like a coward!"

Sunny placed her hand on Aria's shoulder, trying to calm her. "You aren't a coward, kid."

Aria faced her, her eyes full of hate.

"Really? How can I not be a coward? I'm a coward! An Omega!"

Sunny had no clue what Aria was going on about but brushed it off as some new-generation slang. "Look, Dashie didn't die, okay? She's fine, and you did the right thing. If you didn't listen to Dashie, you and your sisters would have also been hurt."

"So?" Aria pushed Sunny's hand off. She was going to walk off, but Sunny stopped her by pulling her by the jacket's collar. She was slammed into the door. "What the fuck!?"

She couldn't move as she felt her teacher's hands on her back and head, keeping her pinned.

"Stop being such a brat, and listen! Dashie didn't die, but if you hadn't listened to her, all three of you would have been in a worse state. So be proud that you helped her, even if it was small. Now, talk to her! I know you have been ignoring her as I watch you two in class, and she told me when she visits my house." Sunny pressed harder, annoyed at Aria's actions. "Scratch that, you are a fucking coward! Too scared to talk to the girl you love!"

Aria tried to escape her teacher's grip, but nothing worked.

"You can't keep running away, Aria. Speak to her and let what happened weeks ago fade into the past." Sunny's grip softened, surprising Aria. "Dashie cares about you and has been depressed about how you and your sisters stopped talking to her. So, talk to her and make it up to her, or you'll never have a shot with her."

Sunny let her go and watched as Aria stood there, looking at the door.

"What about you teach?" Aira asked, slightly turning to her and seeing her confused expression. "I noticed you've been acting weird these past few weeks, too. Is something going on in your life?"

Sunny waved her off. "Nah, I'm fine. But thanks for asking." She opened the door and kicked Aria inside. "But stop stalling! Have a nice talk with my kid!" She slammed the door, holding it shut as she felt Aria trying to open it. "It's for your own good!"

"BASTARD!" Aria screamed, kicking the door, but froze when she heard Dashie's voice.

"Aria? Is that you?"

Sunny suddenly felt Aria stop her attempts to escape. She could hear Dashie talking to Aria, giving her the idea of why she stopped.

"Good."

She let go of the doorknob and walked away down the hall, giving the two some space. She was going back to the music classroom to get her things but saw Blitz hurrying down the hall and taking notice of her.

"Blitz?"

Blitz stopped before her, catching her breath. "Sunny! Did you see Dashie? How is she? I need to check up on her, and-HEY!?"

Sunny pulled Blitz by her hand, leading her somewhere far away from the infirmary. She didn't need Blitz storming in on their daughter and Aria hitting it off. She took Blitz outside the school and toward behind the stands of the track field.

Blitz was finally free and glared at Sunny.

"What the hell, Sunny? I need to check on Dashie, and why did you drag me out-"

Blitz was caught off guard as Sunny pressed her body against her, making her lean back a little. Blitz could feel Sunny's chest pressing against her own, and her heart was racing.

"I-Is something wrong, Sunny?"

Sunny's face was close, her lips almost touching her own. "Yes, there is."

"W-What is it?"

Sunny leaned in, kissing Blitz, making her eyes widen in shock. It was quick, but she didn't stop. She kept doing it over and over until Blitz pushed her away, a trail of saliva connecting them. Blitz was upset now, believing Sunny took her out here to make out while she needed to check on her daughter. She was going to talk her off, but she saw Sunny's expression.

"Sunny?"

"You still love me, right?" Sunny said, trying her hardest to hide her feelings, but failed as tears formed. "You still have feelings for me, right? You aren't ignoring me because you don't love me, right? I know things are hard with what's going on with Lucy, but..."

Blitz knew where this was going and quickly wrapped her arms around Sunny, holding her close.

"I'm so sorry, Sunny. It...just like you said. What's going on with Lucy has been hard, but I shouldn't let that hurt you. I still love you, and I never stopped loving you."

Sunny's sadness turned into happiness, and she kissed Blitz again. The two started to make out, and they got in the mood as they transformed into anthro forms. Sunny placed her mouth near Blitz's ear, whispering into it.

"...then you will try tonight?"

Blitz blushed profoundly and couldn't find the words right away. "Y-Yeah, I will. Just for you."

Sunny smiled warmly. She kissed her and...

"Good! That's all I wanted to ask you!"

"Huh!?"

Blitz watched as Sunny returned to normal and walked out from under the stands. Blitz hurried behind her, transforming back as well.

"Wait, I thought we were going to-"

Sunny laughed at Blitz's disappointment. "What? Do it out here? Blitz, we're not school kids anymore but school teachers. What if some kid or another teacher sees us? I don't want my face in the morning news of how two school teachers were caught fucking on the school's property."

Blitz sighed as she knew Sunny was right, but she hated being blue balled like this. And Sunny could see that, making her laugh more.

"Come on, don't be so sad." Sunny became slightly red as she looked away. "Besides, you said you would try, remember?"

Blitz remembered what she agreed to and also became red.

"...yeah."

When Sunny pulled Blitz away, Aria stood before Dashie's bed. She listened to what Dashie told Adagio, but her mind wandered as she glared at Dashie's body. She remembered how well-trained Dashie's body was; at first glance, you wouldn't know it. She looked weak, but underneath was an influential person. It's one of the reasons she fell in love with her.

She clenched her hand tightly. Blushing crazy, Dashie still hadn't noticed something was up with her. Aria also remembered how caring and kind Dashie was and how much she cared for her. She loved her for those reasons, but then her mind switched to old memories from the past...

"¡Pon tu corazón en ello! ¡Vamos, sigue así Aria!"

Aria remembered when she was young and admired how strong her adopted mother was. She asked her to train her to be like her. She was punching a punching bag, and her mother was giving her advice and helping her improve as she circled her.

"Put more power behind that punch! Remember, this is an opponent. Put your heart and soul into the fight!"

Aria kept punching, her knuckles starting to bleed from how hard she was hitting the bag. Her mother noticed the blood but didn't stop her.

"Don't stop now! You can stop when the bag breaks, not before!"

"YES, MOM!"

Aria was happy to train with her. She has always wanted to do this with her since she saw her in action. Seeing her beating up the bad guys as a kid always inspired her. She kept going for hours until she couldn't hold it any longer and collapsed.

Her mother quickly caught her and placed her on her lap, holding her close.

"That's enough training for today, baby."

"But I'm not done yet, and I can keep going!" Aria said weakly.

Her mother smiled at her daughter's pride. "I know, but you did enough. Now rest."

Aria wanted to protest, but her mother held her tighter. "Please, don't be like me. I did that for years and never knew when to stop. But when I found my Lobo, I learned to take it easy. You should, too, my little Demonio in the making."

Aria blinked and asked her mother what she meant.

"Lobo? Like a wolf?"

Her mother nodded. "Yes, a wolf, but not an animal but someone you love and hold dear to your heart. Someone who will admire your strength and remind you to hold back and learn to relax. That's what a lobo is. Now, do you have one in mind? Since you are asking me to train you and do not want to stop."

Aria had no clue what her mom was talking about.

"Nope."

"Oh, I'm sure you will soon find yours, and they'll be a great help. Trust me. Now, let's get you cleaned up before your father freaks out when he sees your blood knuckles."

Her mother was about to help Aria but was caught off guard by her daughter's question.

"Is papi your Lobo, momma?"

She smiled at Aria. "Of course he is. He taught me to take it easy and not worry so much. Your papi is my Lobo because of how strong he is. He might not seem like it but your papi is more powerful than me! It's why I'll always submit to and listen to him. Even if he can be an idiot at times."

Aria's mother was a little sad at the end. She could see that Aria noticed this and decided to explain.

"I love your Papi with all my heart, and he loves me, too. I'll never betray him, nor would he betray me. We are the perfect pair and the best team, an Aphla and a beta of a wolf pack, but he can sometimes be too dumb for his own good." she puffs her cheeks out in annoyance. "Like not noticing when I'm upset or jealous."

Hearing that and soon learning what Lobo was to someone, Aria wanted to have one—someone she could submit to and someone who would love and care for her. She found that person, and like her mother before her, Aria realized that Dashie was too dumb to notice something was wrong with her.

Aria smiled and shook her head.

"Well, I guess I'll just have to tell her."

She stepped closer to Dashie's bed and pulled the curtains behind her, closing them.

"Lupa?" Dashie whispered, wondering what Aria was doing.

Aria felt a shiver down her spine. Hearing her title, the nickname that Dashie gave her, made her body heat up. She felt her breathing getting heavy. She finally turned to Dashie, whose expression changed from wondering to fear as Aria removed her jacket and got on the bed. She removed her shoes and slowly climbed over Dashie's body, their faces close.

"My sweet Lobo."

Dashie felt scared, seeing the way Aria was looking at her. There is no doubt that Aria was trying to get her to love her in that way, like how she pushed back in the dressing room in Rachel's store. Dashie gulped as she felt Aria's chest pressing down on hers.

"I've missed you, Lobo." Aria's voice sounded different, but Dashie couldn't figure out why. "I'm sorry for what happened, and I've been an idiot these past weeks. Forgive me?"

Dashie knew Aria wasn't asking, and she couldn't fight her. She said there was no reason to be sorry as she understood why after hearing it from Adagio. This made Aria a little mad hearing her big sister's name being brought up.

"Oh, come on, Lobo. I don't want to think about that fat ass sister of mine." she leaned away and smiled as she placed her hands on her shirt, raising it up and over her head, revealing her bra and toned abs to Dashie. "Let's think of more fun things."

Dashie could feel her face growing hot, and she started to shake. She was unprepared for this and tried to move, but Aria's being on top made it harder. Speaking of harder, little Dashie started to wake up, and Aria smirked when she felt it, trying to say hi to her.

"L-Lupa, p-please! Y-You're scaring me!"

Aria moved forward and whispered into her ear, "Don't worry, Lobo. I'm not going to force you." She moved back and removed her pants, revealing something to Dashie, who couldn't help but smile. Aria was wearing the thong she told her she liked and wanted to buy for her.

"I see Lobo is happily going off by your strong tail," Aria said in a sexy tone, licking her lips as she fully felt little Dashie saying hi now.

Dashie was a mess right now; her lower body was betraying her, and her mind was trying to think of a way out. But her body wouldn't move. She just lay there, watching as Aria started to unbutton the bra.

Dashie blinked, and she became confused. She was in a messy room and someone's bed. She could see the white-haired girl in her underwear and on top of her, looking like a nervous mess as she was too scared to remove her bra.

"I can do this..." the girl told herself.

Dashie, however, saw the girl was having trouble, so she spoke up.

"Hey, it's okay. Take your time."

The girl seemed shocked and tried to act tough and brave for Dashie. "T-Take my t-time? N-No, I c-can do it. I-I need to do it."

Dashie smiled as she could tell the girl was struggling and needed help. She sat up and wrapped her arms around the girl's torso, undoing the bra for her.

"There, now-OOF!?"

Dashie was pushed back on the bed thanks to the girl's strong hand. She held Dashie there, blushing like crazy as she covered her exposed chest.

"Y-You can't look! Y-You just can't!" the girl cried, looking at Dashie. "M-My heart can't handle it."

Dashie was confused and asked why the girl was upset.

"DUMBASS!" the girl took the blanket and hid her body. She pouted a bit. "It's going to be my first time, idiot." Her face became more red.

Dashie blinked and started to laugh, causing the girl to become madder.

"I-Idiot!? Why are you laughing, moron!?"

"S-Sorry, but you're too cute right now."

Dashie stopped laughing. Her words affected the girl, causing her to look away and smile slightly. Dashie sat up again and placed her hand over the girl's cheek.

"I love you."

Dashie kissed her, and the girl blushed profoundly.

"Rainbow..."

Dashie could feel her head hurting as the girl's body flickered to that of Aria's. She pushed through the pain and switched places with the girl. The girl was now lying down while Dashie was on top. Dashie looked down and could see the poor girl even more of a nervous wreck. Dashie had to do something, so she leaned in and kissed the girl's neck.

"It's me. There's nothing to worry about. It's just me."

She moved lower, kissing her collarbone and chest.

"Don't be afraid. I won't hurt you."

The girl started to feel calm, feeling Dashie's words as she smiled. Dashie could see that and thought she was ready as she lowered her hand down to the girl's lower half, feeling her panties. Dashie was going to remove it but stopped as she saw the girl trying her hardest to be brave.

The girl took notice of Dashie's worried face and gave a fake smirk. "What's wrong? Don't chicken out on me now. If you want to go the full way, then go the full way, dork."

Dashie said nothing and lay down beside the girl, hugging her. This caused the girl to worry and fear that she had blown it, but Dashie reassured her that she had done nothing wrong.

"It's just that you're too cute right now. Let's just cuddle."

"Huh?"

Dashie snuggles with the girl, not wanting to let her go. "Come here. I promise we'll go the whole way when you're ready. I don't want to scare you."

"I'M NOT SCARED!" screamed the girl but became upset as Dashie placed her head into her bare chest, feeling her soft breasts against her cheek. "I-It's just...I want you, Rainbow. I don't want to wait, and I don't want to stop, but..."

"You don't need to explain yourself. I'm here. Just relax and try not to push yourself." Dashie made her look at her and gave her a warm smile. "You don't always have to push yourself like this for others or me. Relax. Let me take care of you. Just tell me if it gets too much."

Dashie hugged the girl again and felt her hugging back, enjoying the moment.

"...thank you, Rainbow."

Dashie closed her eyes, hearing the girl's soft cries. She could remember what happened next, but that memory and the current one faded away, making her forget everything again. She opened her eyes and was shocked to see herself cuddling with Aria, who was blushing like crazy as they were under the blanket.

"L-L-Lo-L-Lo-Lo-Lo-Lo-Lo..." Aria couldn't get her words out, and Dashie didn't know what was happening.

Dashie gulped as she felt something in her hand that felt like Aria's bra. Without wasting time, Dashie pushed the bra into Aria's stomach and hopped off. She sat at the edge of the bed.

"I'M SORRY!"

Dashie's mind was running a mile in a minute, and she was scared.

'WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON!? WHAT DID I DO!? OH MY GOD, OH MY GOD, OH MY GOD!!!'

Aria, on the other hand, was blushing like crazy. She couldn't believe Dashie had taken action and removed her bra like that, but when she was scared, as Dashie was on top of her, Dashie reassured her, telling her to take her time, as she would always be there for her. Aria fell even more in love with her.

Aria quickly dressed and couldn't look at Dashie as she sat at the edge of the bed. "I'll be one day. Don't worry about it. I'm just glad you're not mad." Aria's cheeks reddened as she remembered how well Dashie had cared for her. "See ya, Lobo."

Aria hurried out of the room, ignoring her little sister, Sonata, who was about to her. "Aria?"

Sonata walked in, calling for Dashie's name. She could see the only closed curtain and wondered if Dashie was there.

"Dashie, are you in there?"

Dashie was still panicking but became calm when she heard Sonata's voice. She rose and could see Sonata peeking in. The two smiled at each other and soon talked on the bed's edge. Sonata was her happy and bubbly self, which Dashie enjoyed and loved.

Sonata had hoped to apologize to Dashie for ignoring her, but her big sister beat her to it. She felt somewhat sad, as she wanted to be the one who apologized, but like always, her sisters had to do everything for her.

"I'm glad I have such great sisters, and they always watch out for me," Sonata said with a big smile.

Dashie wondered why Sonata said that in such a sad way. She could tell there was something wrong, so she asked her.

"What's the matter, Sonata?"

"Huh? Nothing's the matter. I'm just fi-"

"Friends don't lie to each other, Sonata. Even more so when friends can tell you something is wrong. Please, tell me."

Sonata didn't know what to say. She didn't want to tell Dashie what was wrong as she squeezed Mr. BunBun. Just by looking at Mr. BunBun, a memory reappeared in her mind.

When they arrived on Earth, Sonata could remember something terrible that had happened to her and her sisters. Soon, she was separated from them. Her adoptive parents saved her and her sisters soon after. Since that day, Sonata has never wanted to be alone without her family or people she knew. Because of this, she knew she made things hard for them. It would even cause problems; her family needed to apologize on her behalf, and she hated it. She hated seeing them suffer because of her.

She remembered when she had done something that her mother had to apologize for. She ran out to the outskirts of the desert where she lived. During the night, she had to stay out in the desert, where it became cold and dangerous. Sonata was crying and scared, as she couldn't find her way home and heard the sounds of wolves and other animals.
She tried to leave that area, but a wild coyote growled at her as it was about to attack. Before it could, however, Sonata heard a voice calling her name. It was her mother. Sonata had been so happy to listen to her but soon screamed for her to stay away, as she didn't want her mother to be hurt by the wild animal.

"Momma!"

Sonata fell and covered her head, too scared to do anything else. She could hear the animal growling but soon fighting with someone. She soon listened to the animal crying as it ran off, leaving her. Sonata looked up and was happy to see her mom. She was about to hug her, but she noticed her mom was bleeding from her arm.

"Oh, no, momma."

"¿Por qué demonios te escapaste aquí? ¡Todo el mundo está muy preocupado por ti! ¡Estaba preocupado por ti, mi pequeña montaña!" said her mother, checking on Sonata, making sure she was okay, but she noticed her crying face. "What's wrong?" Sonata pointed to her bleeding arm. "Pfft, I had way worse! Besides, you see the coyote!" she smiled happily at her daughter. "He won't be wagging that tail for a few months, I tell you want! Oh, come here."

Sonata was happy to see her mom was okay. She hugged her and didn't let her go.

"I'm so sorry, momma."

"It's okay. But why did you run away from home?"

Sonata told her everything, ensuring her mother picked her up and placed her on her chest, carrying her like a baby.
"It's all okay, Sonata. Everyone makes mistakes. We're your family, and we'll always love and support you. So don't think we're mad or see you as a burden. What happened to you isn't your fault, and you can't help but act like that, my sweet mountain."

"But I make things difficult."

"So does your father, and do you think we hate him?" Sonata shook her head, and her mother smiled. "Your sisters also make things complicated! Tell me, do we hate them? No, right? So don't worry about it, my little mountain. Now let's go home."

As her mother carried her home, she couldn't help but feel bad still. She knew her mother was telling the truth, but she didn't want her mother or her siblings to have to apologize to her. She tried to stop being such a problem.

"Sonata?" Dashie whispered, seeing her friend crying.

Dashier reached out, and when she blinked, she saw the white-haired girl sitting with her arms resting on her knees. She was crying as they were somewhere inside the cargo bay of some flying ship, going by the sounds of the engine. Dashie asked her what was wrong.

"I'm sorry..."

"Huh?"

"I'm sorry for being like this. I'm sorry for having you clean up my mess."

"Hey, it's okay, and don't be sorry."

The girl looked up at Dashie, not happy with herself. "But I make everything complicated and hard."

Dashie sighed as she walked over and sat beside her, their shoulders almost touching. The two didn't say anything, only hearing the engine sounds. Dashie soon spoke.

"It's not your fault."

"Huh?"

"Life is tough; sometimes, we can't help ourselves when given a bad hand of cards. So don't feel wrong about that. I understand your feelings and what it's like to have everything thrown at you and mess things up because of who you are." she turned to her, giving her a small smile. "Sure, it gets on my nerves, but it's not your fault. You can't help being this way. It's how life is. Sometimes, we need a hand to help us get through it. And I'll be there for you when you need me." She smirked. "Like, I'm still here, right? I'm not mad or annoyed with you."

"Y-You're not?" the girl asked, her body flickering between Sonata's body.

Dashie shook her head and leaned back, using her arms to support her. "I'm not. I admire how you're strong enough even with the problems you carry. You can be so positive, even with the shit cards you're given."

"But, Rainbow-"

Dashie moved her body, making herself lean on the girl's shoulder, causing her to blush.

"Enough with the buts and sorry already. We're friends, right?" the girl nodded sadly. "Then you can come to me with your problems, and I'll help you, but please stop apologizing and trying to act tough or cool." Dashie pointed to herself. "I'm the cool one here!"

The girl giggled and started to tear up as she felt better.

"You? Cool?" she snickered at her. "More like a big dork who thinks she's cool but not. You're a goofball and a moron."

"HEY!"

Dashie pouted as the girl continued to laugh and smile. The two didn't talk much and enjoyed the moment together. Dashie placed her hand over the girl's. She held the hand, but the girl quickly let go and blushed.

"WE CAN'T HOLD HANDS! THAT'S TOO LEWD!"

Dashie blinked. "Huh!? How is holding hands lewd!?"

"BECAUSE!" the girl blushed harder and turned her head. "It just is. And besides, my hands are sweaty."

"No, they're not. And what's wrong with a little sweat."

"It's gross, you idiot! As a girl, you should know why it's bad."

"I do, and I still don't care."

Dashie grabbed her hand again, not listening to the girl, who was freaking out.

"STOP IT!" the girl was about to punch Dashie but froze as she heard her voice telling her something, and she felt Dashie's hand shaking.

"You hate me?"

The girl was shocked by her question and could see Dashie was severe. The girl didn't know what to say, but Dashie didn't want her answer, so she took her hand and held it while looking down at her feet.

"You're not gross, and you're not a problem. You're fine the way you are, and I wouldn't change a thing." she took the girl's hand and kissed it, causing steam to blast out of the girl's pony ears. "I like you..."

Dashie turned back to the girl, only for the memory to fade and for her to forget what had happened. Instead, she saw Sonata smiling while shedding tears.

"Sonata? What's wrong!?"

"Nothing," Sonata said as she wiped her eyes. "It's just...I'm glad I met you, Dashie."

"Huh?"

Dashie wasn't sure why Sonata had said that but accepted her answer, and the two continued to talk. Then Sonata also left, worried her sister was looking for her. This left Dashie alone, but only for a bit, as her mother came in, and the two were walking down the hall.

"So, you are okay, sweet pea?" Blitz asked, seeing her daughter was alright.

Dashie wasn't sure but nodded.

"I am, but I don't remember coughing up blood or anything like that. Even if my slime had exited my body, it would have left signs of it on my face and shirt." She looked over to her mother. "I am going through some slime thing? Like because I'm getting older?"

Blitz shrugged. "I don't know. I was born as a slime, but I have few memories of that time until I met my real mothers. Everything I know was thanks to Cozy and Fluttershy finding those books about slime hybrids, but even then, the Equestria slime might be different from my universe, so I don't have an answer for you, sweet pea. And I'm not sure what's going on."

"Hmmm..." Dashie started to think and remembered about the wings she had. "Maybe it's related to my wings? Maybe I'm going through a second puberty. Still odd I can't summon them again..."

"Possible," Blitz said as they left the school and saw Sunny, Sol, and Dahlia waiting for them. Blitz asked her daughter a question. "Are you staying over tonight? Sol hoped you would stay over since I have lived with them and Wallflower every other week."

Dashie sighed; she remembered how her little sisters had been begging her to stay with them since her mother had been staying with them while her parents worked on what was going on with each other. She turned to her, asking a question.

"Are you going to speak with Mom soon? I know you have been ignoring her. For example, when you call me, and I want to give the phone to her, you say you have to go. Are you even going to try to speak to her? She knows she fucked up and wants to apologize."

"Yes, sweet pea, I know. But I can't forgive her that easily. It's something I'm not ready to do yet. I know I'll have to do it, but not now." Blitz sighs deeply. "And I'm not the only one she needs to apologize to..." she looks at Sunny, waving and tapping her watch.

Dashie knew what her mother meant and nodded. It wasn't just Blitz but Sunny and Wallflower that her mother needed to apologize to. She could see Sol happily waving at her. With a deep sigh, she agrees to stay over the night.

"...it's just Sol. What can go wrong?"

Cut to Dashie lying in Sol's bed while Sol asks her if she wants anything. She then brings random things to her room and places them on the bed.

"How about this!? You might need it!?"

Dashie eyed the item that was added to the growing pile of junk.

"Why would I need a car battery, Sol!? I'm not a CAR!"

Sol was going to explain why Dashie would need it, but Dashie shouted at her to stop and go to bed.

"Right!" Sol hurried to the light switch and turned it off. She hurried back and lay on the ground. "Night, big sis!"

Dashie rolled her body through the junk and looked at Sol, upset at what she was looking at. She could see her little sister lying on the floor with no pillow or anything.

"Sol, why are you sleeping on the ground without anything? That's not going to be comfortable."

Sol smiled sadly as she turned to her, telling her she would be fine. "I'll sleep fine! Mom is sleeping on the sofa, and big sis deserves all the pillows and blankets! You are more important than me."

"Sol..." Dashie sighed and knew she had to do something. She pushes all the junk off the bed, gets out, and places Sol in her bed. "Don't treat me like that. I'm not a princess, and you're my family. Your needs are as important as mine." Dashie was about to lie on the floor with a pillow, but Sol grabbed her hand, mad.

"I can't let you sleep on the floor, big sis! You have done so much for me, and you deserve a bed. Let me take the floor."

"No," Dashie argued.

"Then, let's share the bed," Sol said, causing Dashie to freeze.

Dashie tried to see if there was any ill intent, as Sol was a siscon. She was very open about her feelings toward her and didn't care how others saw her. But despite knowing this, Dashie couldn't sense any ill intent from Sol. She could see her little sister's sad face.

"...fine."

The two climbed into bed and lay down. Sol was happy, and Dashie tried to fall asleep. Unfortunately, she couldn't, and it was because Sol was hugging her like a body pillow. Her arms and legs were wrapped around her, and Dashie could not move.

"I love you, big sis! I always dreamed of this! Sleeping with eac-"

"DON'T MAKE THIS WEIRD!"

Sol apologized and closed her mouth, but she soon opened her eyes and stared at her big sister. She was glad her big sister stayed here for the night; it made it feel like the old times when they lived together as kids.

"Night, big sis..."

Sol closed her eyes and went to sleep.

Sunny was peeking through the door and quietly closed it. She was happy nothing weird had happened.

"Maybe she isn't a siscon after all?"

She headed to her bedroom but became sad to see it was empty. She headed downstairs and saw Blitz on the sofa, about to go to sleep.

"I thought you said you would try tonight?"

Blitz froze when she heard Sunny voice. She gulped and stood up. "Right, I did say that, didn't I?"

Sunny nodded and tapped her foot while waiting for Blitz to join her in the bedroom. Blitz didn't have an excuse and followed Sunny. Once inside, she sat on one side while Sunny sat on the other. The two just sat there, not saying a word.

"Man, you sure can feel awkwardness in the air, huh?" Sunny, nervous, joked, hoping to break the ice.

Blitz just gave her a slight nod, but that was it. Sunny wasn't surprised by her reaction. She turned her body and lay down, resting her head on the pillow.

"Reminds me when we first did it for the first time. I was super nervous and embarrassed, and you were the same." Sunny started to smile. "Then you put it in the wrong hol-"

Blitz quickly faced her with a bright red blush on her face. "IT WAS DARK AND I COULDN'T SEE!"

Sunny snickered at Blitz's embarrassed reaction. She didn't think it was possible, but the fact that the person she married could get even more embarrassed was funny to her. She pulled Blitz into the bed, making her fall on top of her. Blitz was shocked by this, and Sunny just hugged her, holding her close.

"I've missed this. Our daughters are living under one roof again. You and I share a bed for sleeping rather than a booty call."

"Me too..." But Blitz realized what Sunny said entirely. "You aren't a booty call! I can't be-"

Sunny looked up and kissed Blitz's nose, making her blush more.

"I know. Can't be all places at once." Sunny sighed and ran her hand down Blitz's back, enjoying the moment. "I miss this. I want everyone under one roof again. Like how it was before."

Blitz rested her head on Sunny's shoulder, looking away. "We can. You two were always welcome to move back in. We didn't kick you two out or something. You two left-"

"Left on our own, I know, but it was for our daughter, you know that. They didn't need people looking down or telling them things because their parents were in a polyamory relationship."

"We could have protected them."

"Yes, we could have, but that would have put us in the spotlight and caused more trouble for them. At least they weren't bullied, and that's what matters."

Blitz rolled on her side of the bed and looked Sunny in the eyes. "Lucy said you left us because you didn't love us, and no matter what I do, you two won't ever move back in."

"Blitz..." Sunny could see the sad expression on her face, but Sunny also felt mad at what Lucy said because this all started with what girl was suitable for Dashie.

"Was she right? Did you leave us because you no longer love me or Lucy?"

Sunny sat up and turned her head. "Fuck no! We love you both, and it hurt when we had to leave. We wanted to live together but couldn't, as I told you. I understand why Lucy said it because..." she couldn't finish it as she angrily shouted and landed on her pillow.

"What happened between you two and Lucy? Why won't you three tell me?"

Sunny sighed. "If I told you, you blitz it up with your daughter and her future girlfriend. You are too dumb to notice that your daughter's friends aren't just friends, as they have feelings for her. You will make Dashie friends zone them without realizing it. So no, I can't tell you, or else everything will end up bad." Sunny said all this in her head and turned to Blitz, wanting to say that to her but instead said. "It's hard to explain..." she kicked herself from hiding this from Blitz, even though her reasons were sound.

Blitz was still concerned, but she dropped it as she lay on her back and looked at the ceiling. The two just lay there, looking at the ceiling for an hour, not talking, but that changed when Sunny moved to her side, hugging Blitz. She whispered into her ear.

"We can pick up where we left off, you know."

Blitz was unsure of what she was talking about. She was confused.

"Where did we leave off?"

Sunny was disappointed that Blitz couldn't remember, but she had a small idea to make her remember. She transformed into her anthro form and used magic to remove their clothes. Both were naked under the blanket.

"This silly."

She then grabbed Blitz's cheek, kissing her lips. Blitz quickly remembered what Sunny meant, as she was forced into her anthro form as well, thanks to her horniness. Blitz got on top of her, kissing her neck. She could feel Sunny's big breast against her skin. She stopped and wanted to admire the beautiful sight of Sunny's beauty.

"You know, Lucy misses this too. Maybe you two should talk to her and try to make up. Like I said, Lucy misses you two like I do. She also misses making love with you two." Blitz explained.

Sunny knew that Blitz was right, but right now, her mind was on her and Blitz's needs. She was horny, and she needed Blitz inside her. She pulled the covers over their bodies, and movement could be seen within...until the two stopped after Sunny groaned with a bit of pain.

"...Blitz, really? You put it in the wrong hol-"

"I can't see!" she could hear Sunny laughing at her. "Shut up! That's not funny! If you had one like me and couldn't see anything, you too would be in this situation."

Sunny stopped and made another joke.

"I bet you like using that hole."

"SUNNY!"

Sunny busted out laughing, making Blitz turn redder. She hid her face on Sunny's back, hiding her embarrassment and knowing Sunny wouldn't ever let her live this down.

Meanwhile, inside Blitz's house, Lucy was in the dark kitchen, drawing with a perverted smile, but tears were falling.

Behind her was Spark, who lowered her book and sadly looked at her little sister's wife.

"Lucy...you shouldn't be coping in this way..."

She couldn't ever hear Spark, so Spark was forced to watch her little sister's wife suffer and couldn't help her. Lucy kept drawing, bags forming under her eyes.

End of Chapter 10
