P.O.V. Switch – Fluttershy and Sombra

Sombra and Fluttershy finally arrived in Manehattan, the city lights cutting through the night.
They needed to find a place to stay. Quickly.
Sombra groaned.

“What's wrong?”
“We have no bits.”

Fluttershy froze.
Money! How could they have forgotte nto take some money with them when they were chased from their home?

“I suppose we can find a cardboard box, or a nightclub, or something to sleep in.”

Fluttershy Scrunched at the idea.

“If we have to.”
“I don't see any other choice.”

The two began their search for shelter.
Meanwhile, a crazed figure eyed them from the darkness of an alleyway.

After walking for hours in the Manehattan metropolis, Sombra and Fluttershy finally collapsed in an alleyway. They hadn't eaten all day. They weren't about to find any clean water either.
As the two leaned in on each other, resigning to a colt and uncomfortable night's sleep, a trash can tipped at the mouth of the alleyway.
Fluttershy screamed.
Sombra realised who it was.

“Damn me and my spur-of-the-moment fetishes...”

The figure lunged forward, scrambling at a surprising speed.
Sombra braced himself for impact, but was too exhausted to withstand it.
He was knocked down as the beast snarled and growled.
Fluttershy rushed the beast, trying to wrestle it from atop Sombra.
It was a losing battle.
The figure turned its attention to Fluttershy, throwing her back and knocking her out cold before returning his attention to sombra.

The creature looked nothing like who he had once been. His eyes were glazed over, filled with insanity. Terrible breath, and corroded, disgusting, rotting teeth and gums.
Sombra gagged. The thing was inches away from his muzzle, and it was too much even for the wild fetish stallion.
The creature wrapped its fingers around Sombra's neck slowly, tightening its grip and savoring Sombra's struggling.
Sombra began to choke. The creature was going to strangle him.

Not wasting another second thinking, Gold gallopped from the mouth of the alleyway, knocking the creature from Sombra with all the strength he could muster.

The beast sized him up, before sprinting away, and climbing a fire escape onto the rooftops above.
Panting, But satisfied, Gold turned to examine a shocked and exhausted Sombra.

“You certainly don't look like an evil mastermind.”
“Don't patronize me.”
“Yeah. You're welcome.”

Sombra, instantly remembering, crawled over to Fluttershy, trying to rouse her.
Gold however, poked around for anything the beast may have left behind.

“That was certainly no normal everfree animal. What's the deal with that?”

Sombra bit his tongue. He knew exactly what the deal was, and even began to feel regret for what he had done to the human.

“You aren't very talkative, are you? What were you thinking, trying to sleep in an alleyway? In MANEHATTAN, no less...”

Sombra ignored the colt's scornful ramblings and turned his attention to Fluttershy.
He tapped her face a few times with his hoof before reaching up and slapping her, much to her dismay, and Gold's surprise.
It worked though. Fluttershy quickly roused and crawled back into a corner with Sombra.
Gold rolled his eyes and approached the two.
Sombra bared his teeth like an animal, which prompted little more than a raised eyebrow.
Gold slowly reached out, and placed a bit pouch in Sombra's lap.
“I'm not keep on going another round with that thing. I'm pretty sure you'd feel the same.”
Sombra simply examined the pouch.
“I never gave that to you, And I never helped you here.”
As if in repayment, Gold took one of the cloaks they had taken from Zecora. Sombra was far too tired and bewildered to say or do anything to stop him.
Gold turned, and trotted away without looking back.
He could only pray that if those two ever were caught, that they would keep this a secret.
Shining Armour would have his head as a trophy.

Sombra, surprised by the brief appearance of the colt, and his generosity, took a moment to consider the situation. Upon examining the contents of the pouch, he guessed that they were now in possession of roughly 300 bits. And a coupon for a Free donut box at some place called Pony-Joe's.

Shrugging off the odd coupon, Sombra gathered Fluttershy onto his back, and started looking for an affordable looking hotel.
Dragging Fluttershy through the night streets was no easy task. Sombra was grateful that at least it wasn't raining. Or snowing.
Eventually Sombra found a decent looking hotel, and checked in with no incident. Dragging Fluttershy up the many flights of stairs was no easy task, but he managed. He made it to the hotel room, and upon making sure it was secure, set Fluttershy down on the bed.
He then headed back down the stairs, to the restaurant on the first floor.
As he descended the many flights of stairs, he came across a strange, cloaked figure.
With a flick of his hoof, he had flung the hood back, revealing the same colt that they had met in the alleyway.
“Next time you try to disguise yourself from me, Don't do so with a cloak you stole from me.”
Speechless, The colt could do nothing but hurry past Sombra to the upper floors.
Sombra didn't worry. The hotel room was secure. Fluttershy was safe.
Upon making it down to the bottom floor, Sombra spent the rest of the bits on anything that looked tasty enough to buy.
No meat though. Apparently these ponies don't eat meat. They don't know what they're missing out on.
Upon returning to the room, Sombra found Fluttershy still asleep on the bed. He poured some water from the sink, and set the food out across the bed.
Sombra woke Fluttershy, and the two ate their fill.

Full and comfortable, the two decided to make good use of their hotel room. Sombra began looking for something, anything, that could be used as a fetish object. Finding nothing, Sombra sulked into the bathroom.

He spotted the bathtub, and an idea formed in his mind.
With a smirk, he began running the bath, and went to get Fluttershy.

The warm, Bubbling water soothed and relaxed both Fluttershy and Sombra.
Fluttershy sat in between Sombra's legs, and leaned back into his chest as he used the water to wash the grime and dirt from her coat and mane.
All the while, nibbling seductively on her ear.
She leans back into Sombra, breathing lightly, and relaxing.
“Don't relax just yet.”
Sombra smirked down at Fluttershy, and she realised the real purpose of the bath, and straightened up.
This time, Sombra was in for a surprise, as Fluttershy took the reigns and began to fondle Sombra's stallionhood behind her back.

Sombra and Fluttershy maneuvered around each other, wet fur sliding against wet fur.
This would be interesting.

“Three taps on the rump if you need to get up to breathe, Alright?”

Sombra whispered in Fluttershy's ear as he lowered her into the soapy water
Fluttershy took a deep breath and allowed herself to sink below the surface
Sombra positioned himself in a 69 position, taking a deep breath before diving down to lick Fluttershy's marehood underneath the water.
All the while, Receiving a blowjob to remember from Fluttershy.

Their bodies slid against each other, as the warm water cradled their lovemaing.
Three taps on the rump. Sombra removed his weight from Fluttershy, allowing her to come back up for air, before lowing himself back into the water with her.
They began to shudder with pleasure, water sloshing up against the sides of the bathtub.
Fluttershy's lubricants seep from her marehood, swirling about in the water.
Sombra can't hold on much longer, and blows his load just as he receives three taps on the rump.
Fluttershy surfaces, gagging on her mouthful. Sombra is quick to pat her on the pack, apologetically trying to remedy the situation..

“Nice timing”

As fluttershy chokes out the words, silence falls.
Fluttershy is the one who fails to last. She begins to giggle uncontrollably.
Sombra follows suit, sloshing around, splashing each other with the dirty bathtub water.
“I think we should probably rerun this bath if we actually want to be clean.”
“Being clean is overrated.”
“You know, we will arouse far more suspicion if we walk through the city tomorrow smelling of spak and sex.”
“If you insist...”
Sombra and Fluttershy climb from the bathtub, soapy love water dripping from their coats.
Sombra reran the bath, quickly adding some bubble solution before slipping back in, inviting Fluttershy to do the same.
For the longest time, they just sat there in the warm, wet, bubbly water, holding each other.
Staring into each others eyes.
The water was cold by the time they finally got out, and decided to get some sleep.

Meanwhile, in the bedroom just beyond their bathroom wall, a single golden colt sits on the bed. Scared and traumatized.

“I knew I should've gone with the room on the other side of theirs.”
