The long road home, part 2

I ran.

I ran harder and faster than I had ever run before. I ran until my lungs were on fire and my veins pumped battery acid……..and I still lost.

The race had been neck and neck, if only for the first fifteen seconds. Even with Scootaloo buzzing her little wings to try and give me an extra boost.
In the end though Rainbow stood at the steps of sugar cube corner, not a drop of sweat on her (of course).

Scootaloo didn't seem that disappointed that we lost, to the contrary she was giggling and saying how awesome that was.

"Oh my gosh, that was so cool, we were all like vrooooom! and when Rainbow Dash was all like woosh! Cain, wasn't that awesome?"

"Oh, gasp, it, gasp, was, gasp, so, gasp, awesome." I said before having to take a knee to try and catch my breath.

"Come on you two, you don't want the ice cream to get cold do you?" I thought to throw Rainbow a snappy come back, but right then all I could think about was that cold, sweet, creamy, ice cream, so to hoof with it, lets eat.

The three of us ate ice cream tell we thought we were going to burst. I almost had a heart attack when Scootaloo got her chocolate milk shake, The way she held it in her little fore legs and sipped on it with such a happy smile……………ngggggh! my chest!

Mrs. Cake had to come over and revive me with a smelling salt at some point, but I digress.

The sun was beginning to set as me and Rainbow walked along the orange lit streets. Surprisingly, despite the harsh and raciest things that Miss. Winniefred had said, no pony seemed to be avoiding me or looking at me like I was a threat. I guess seeing me save the mare who had labeled me as a monster from getting her muzzle caved in by Rainbow had changed ponies opinions of me, thanks Rainbow.

Scootaloo was now dead asleep on my back, her belly, which now bulged outward full of ice cream no doubt, made my burden of caring the sleepy filly just a little bit harder. But it was a burden I would gladly carry for eternity if needed be.

"heh, heh." Rainbow giggled as we turned onto the street where Scootaloos house was.

"Whats so funny, Rainbow?" I asked while I hiked the pudgy filly onto my back.

"Oh I was just thinking of what the three of us must look like right now is all."

Curiosity struck me.

"And what do we look like, my dear?" I asked awaiting something about how funny we must look.

"A family of course." Rainbow stated before giving me a little tap to my leg.

What?

A family?

I had been having so much fun that I hadn't really thought about it, but when I really thought about it.

That beautiful pegasus pony, and this sweet little filly, we really were……………..like a family.

My mind returned to the day I left Filly, I remembered the family I had seen at the train station, the stallion, his mare, and their foal. I recalled how much I wanted the same thing.

The earth turns, we don't feel it, but its their, miracles work in the same way I suppose. The one thing that I had dreamt of since I was small, and hear it was just dropped into my lap. I hadn't even realized it.

I looked at Rainbow, if it wasn't for her……I don't know where I would be right now.

Even if she almost killed me when we first met.

"I love you…..Rainbow Dash." I said aloud to the pony I loved without fear.

Rainbow stopped dead in her tracks and almost instantly her whole coat turned a deep red.

"I-I love you too." She confessed without turning her head to look at me, most likely she didn't want me to see how embarrassed she was at hearing me use her full name.

We continued our stroll to Scootaloo's house, both of us (unknown to the other) wore a happy smile.

Rainbow knocked on the door, which was promptly answered by an orange pegasus mare, Scootaloo's mom I concluded.

Her mane was the same as Scootaloo's except that she wore hers long and wavy and I imagined that this is what Scootaloo will look like when she grows up.

What a knock out shell be!

She took notice of her daughter gently snoozing on my back before turning to Rainbow.

"Rainbow Dash, I see you brought my little scootal bug home." The mare said cheerfully.

I noticed that she had some dark bags under her eyes, the sign of a hard working mom for sure. Scootaloo's dad was in the royal guard and was stationed at Canterlot castle, as Rainbow had told me.

It must be hard for all of them, Scootaloo and her mom had to get by without a dad or a husband, and scoot's dad, the poor guy, having to say goodbye to such a sweet little girl and a hot wife like that.

But I couldn't help but admire his bravery, he's a lucky stallion.

Also, "scootal bug"? Oh I can't wait to get her on this one.

"Eeee yep, we just brought her back from an all you can eat buffet of extreme ice cream madness!"

The mare let out an amused giggle.

"I see, well Im glad she had fun By the way, who's your tall friend here?"

Rainbow gestured to me with a hoof.

"This, Mrs. Loo, is my special somepony, Cain."

I extended my right hand to the beautiful mare.

"Its nice to meet you ma'am, you have a great daughter hear."

She extended her hoof to which I took it and gave it a light shake.

"Why thank you, I'm Lilly Loo, and any friend of my daughters is a friend of mine."

After we had exchanged pleasantries, I transferred the pudgy bellied filly to her mom's back, to which she began to stir a little.

"Scootal bug, what do you say to Cain and Rainbow Dash?" Lilly Loo whispered gently to her daughter.

"Mmmm, thank you big brother, thanks big sis." The little filly said as she drifted between asleep and awake.

Me and Rainbow gave the filly an awkward smile.

We said our farewells to Mrs. Loo before we left for home, maybe Ill offer to come over sometime and make dinner for Scootaloo and her mom, you know give her mom a break from the cooking.

Believe me, I know how tiring it can get cooking every day.

It was starting to get dark when we were almost to my house.

"Uh, Cain, can I ask you something?"

I looked at Rainbow in the moonlight, her eyes sparkled like stars.

"You just did." I stated sarcastically.

Rainbow didn't look amused.

"S-sorry, go ahead."

Rainbow took on a worried and anxious look.

"Well uh, I want to ask you if its all right if I spent the night…………with you."

Uh oh! whatdoIdowhatdoIdowhatdoIdo? What do I say?!

"Of course, Rainbow. My home is your home." Perfect! Play it cool.

You sly dog.

"Great! just let me go home and get some stuff, ok? I'll be right back." With that Rainbow shot into the sky and off to her cloudominium.

In the mean time I went inside, I had to prepare myself, mentally!

I found myself standing in my shower with my hands pressed against the wall as I looked down at my team.

"Ok old boy, tonight is the night, now I know we've never done anything like this before, but I also know that you are a champion!"

…………………………………………………. What in the name of Celestia am I doing?

After my shower I brushed my hair and teeth before shaving and putting something simple on. All that was left was to wait.

"Knock, knock!"

That didn't take long, ok deep breaths, you love her, just be yourself……just…….be….."gulp"……yourself.

I opened the door to find Rainbow, of course, on her back she carried a saddlebag of mysterious wonders I assumed.

"Told you I would be right back." Rainbow stated proudly.

"Never doubted you." I replied.

"Sorry to keep you waiting, but do you think I could use your bathroom?" Well Im not one to refuse a mares request.

"Sure thing, go right ahead."

Rainbow gave me a sly smile.

"Thanks, go wait for me in your room ok, I won't be too long." Rainbow said as she turned toward the bathroom, as she walked I was drawn to her soft curvy flank and the treasures that it held.

Rainbow turned her head toward me just before she entered the wash room and noticed me eyeing her mare parts like a hungry timberwolf.

"Ah ah, no peaking my stallion." She said before giving me a wink and closing the bathroom door.

Now I sat on my bed, contemplating the evening of love and passion that was ahead of me, and as I sat their, a familiar smell came to my nostrils, a smell that I associated with the best birthday I had ever had.

Pheromones.

The sweet and musky smell of pheromones was becoming thicker in the air, and it was coming from the room that Rainbow now occupied.

I was feeling a bit dizzy from the aroma, and I was about to get up and knock to see if Rainbow was all right in their. But before I could check on the status of my marefriend the door slowly opened.

What emerged was Rainbow 2.0.

Her eyelashes were longer and thicker, and she had done her mane so that it laid against half of her face. Her lips had a light coat of pink lipgloss which made them look so moist and sweet.

But the biggest change she had made was that on all four legs she now wore thigh high rainbow striped socks!

Now I wore socks of course, but for ponies, socks were considered a very intimate clothing, for some reason mares felt more exposed wearing them (or so I had read).

"Wow" was the understatement of the year in that room.

"W, well what do you think? My friend Rarity showed me how to do all this, I usually don't go for this kind of girly stuff but I………..thought you might like it."

I sat on my bed, the smell of pheromones swirling around me like a thick fog, filling my lungs, pouring its warm pink drug into my blood stream.
My head was a wash, my skin was hot, and my mouth was watering.

And she wanted to know what I thought of it?

"Please Rainbow………just come here."

Rainbow blushed as she slowly approached where I sat on the bed. She only got about three steps before she pounced, pinning me under her on the bed.

She planted her mouth on mine, the taste of her lipgloss filling my senses. Sweet like strawberries dipped in powder sugar, and her tongue.

It was as if she were trying to taste all of me, it swirled with my tongue as she hungrily lapped at the roof of my mouth and the bottom.
I pulled away enough to trap her wet tongue in my mouth and began to suck at it with abandon.

We broke away and planted a few small pecks on each other.

Rainbow then moved to put her open mouth on my collar bone and sank her teeth in, hard.

"Mmmmm, mm, hmmm." She moaned as she sucked and bit into the flesh covered bone like a teething puppy.

It hurt, but I didn't stop her this time, I was sure that she was going to draw blood, and in my arousal fogged mind, I wanted her to.

Rainbow rubbed my chest with her sock covered hoof while at the same time she was rubbing her plot on my stomach, my shirt was getting wet.

I broke Rainbow from her bone so that I could remove my shirt, but Rainbow already had the collar of my shirt in her teeth and she was forcefully tearing it off my body.

Once off she gazed downward at my exposed chest. With her pink tongue she licked one peck and then the other drawing lines of moisture across my skin as she went and planting little kisses hear and their.

Once I had removed the thunder crystal from around my neck she reared her head up and looked at me with extreme urgency.

"Im in heat!" She practically shouted.

"Huh?" was all I could say.

"The truth is I've been going crazy for awhile, and I can't take it any more!"

A switch was hit in my head and it all began to make sense to me. The training thingey, her collapsing, the smell of pheromones.

Celestias crown! Its spring!

Of course, if it were a cockatrice it would have turned me to stone.
She must have gone on the training whatever to help clear her head.

Although if I had to choose between doing wing ups on top of a frozen mountain and taking a cold shower, Id take the shower.

"Usually I keep it in check by training harder this time of year…..Thats what I was doing the day we met."

Thanks spring.

"But something changed this year."

I cocked an eyebrow to that.

"I met…..you!"

Rainbow's sock covered hoofs were very soft against my chest as she pressed harder into me so she could rub her soft wet marehood against my abs (small they may be but abs non the less).

I had to see it, I had to see what the affects were to make Rainbows plot so wet. So I picked Rainbow up, flipped her around and laid her on her back.
Her wings were fully extended and I had the strong feeling that I was going to have a hard time keeping Rainbow grounded.

Rainbow opened her back legs, her face was red and her eyes were closed. She was really embarrassed but she obviously wanted this bad.

Her marehood was nothing but a little slit with soft pudgy lips on either side, and it was all covered in her wet arousal.

Gently I ran a finger up the slit to witch Rainbow let out a sharp cry followed by a little shudder in her tail. It felt hot and moist inside, and I almost came from the thought that I was going to be inside of her soon.

I put my pointer finger just at the entrance to her plot, I didn't push it in, just a slow tickling at her entrance.

Just enough to make her a little more crazy.

"Nnnnnnnghhhhhhh! Cain! please…. don't tease me."

I pressed my finger in slowly, Rainbow stiffened up and began to twitch.

When I was as deep as my finger could go, then she hit me with it.

Rainbow cried out my name as a wave of hot clear liquid shot from her marehood like the pony had sprung a leak. At first I was shocked, I didn't know what it was, then I remembered.

So she's a squirter huh?

Not all that surprising, I had read in an issue of "Play Pony" that over eighty-three percent of all equine mares experience "female ejaculation" during intercourse.

Although Rainbow looked more embraced than a filly who forgot her books on the first day of school.

I twisted my finger inside her and she let loose an even bigger torrent of liquid. After the wave I slowly bent down and placed my tongue at the bottom of her slit almost touching her tight rose bud, (I was going to have to give her asshole a big wet kiss, later though) and I dragged it up taking in the taste of her plot, it didn't taste bad, well not too bad at least. It was strong but the more I licked the more I liked it.

My pants were soaked, so time for them to go. Rainbow lay before me convulsing like a gold fish out of water. I sat with my legs crossed as I pulled Rainbow up and held her to me while she came down from her orgasms. She bit my shoulder while she regained control of her head again.

After a moment or two she place her rainbow colored socks on my shoulders and looked at me with great need.

"Please Cain, it burns, it feels like theirs a fire inside me, no, an inferno! I need you to………….enter me, as deep as you can and douse it with your………………..cum."

I lowered her until the tip of my dick and the entrance to her slit were just barely touching each other in a moist kiss.

"Your such a nasty little pony Rainbow." I uttered before lowering her down some more.

The tip slipped in and instantly the head was enveloped in a soft warm embrace. But as I slid in more it got tighter to the point that it felt like her plot was trying to chock my penis.

Their was no hymen, I would find out latter that Rainbow had experimented with toys when she was a teenage mare, and had one day used one to hard on herself during her first estrus cycle. Thus the tradition of working out extra hard in the spring time came about.

A mental image came to me after the story, of a teenage Rainbow in her cloud room surrounded by wonder bolt posters, bringing herself to her first climax, all sweaty and out of breath, making little sounds like a kitten.

Hey, don't judge me, its called a fantasy, try it sometime.

With her hooves gripping my shoulders Rainbow threw her head back as I finished dropping her onto my shaft. I was balls deep inside her and it felt like nothing I had ever felt before (obviously).

"Rainbow, I….NGHH!" That was when I came.

I released inside her with what felt like a thick load, Rainbows plot gripped me inside her as my cum shot out of me and into her womb.

"I, Im sorry, I-" Rainbow looked at me as she trembled and panted.

"For what? It feels great. Its so hot and thick." Rainbow placed a sock covered hoof on where her womb was to try and feel the semen that was now home inside her, as she rubbed the spot she let out a tiny giggle.

"You naughty little stallion, were you trying to make me a mommy?" Yes yes yes yes yes yes and yeeeeeeees!

"But, but I came so fast." Rainbow put her hoof back on my shoulder and smiled at me.

"Silly, coming as soon as you get in the door is what loosing your virginity is all about. I mean I came like crazy from you just putting your dick in."

Rainbow gave me a kiss on the nose.

"And I don't want to be selfish, I want you to feel good too you know. I really loved how gentle and sweet you were when you were putting it in."

She blushed as her smile became more timid and she averted her eyes away from me.

"You know, I may be a tomboy, but I'm still a girl, and the way you made me feel when you were taking me was like, well I…………………I felt like…a princess."

I leaned into her and began kissing her neck.

"Thats because you are a princess, my naughty little princess, who wants me to make her feel good, right?"

My dick became harder inside her, which was not lost on the desperate mare.

"Yes" she squeaked as the muscles in her plot hugged me tightly.

"And does my princess want for me to fill her with seed until she's pregnant with three foals?" I know that can't happen but hay, were roll playing.

"Yes!"

I laid Rainbow on her back again as I mounted her from above and slid myself inside again and all the way to the hilt.

Rainbow cried out louder as her insides drooled and moistened my member, all while squeezing me so hard it was hard to pull out and slam back into her.
I wanted to turn her soft pink insides red and raw. I wanted to pound inside of her until she couldn't walk right. I wanted to paint the inside of her wet plot hole with enough cum that she wouldn't fell the fire of estrous until next year!

I picked up my pacing, every time our pelvises met their was a wet clap that filled the room and soon became a rhythmic pattern.

Was it the pheromones that were doing this to me?

With my hands on each of her cutie marks I raised her hips up to help align me better with her squelching hole.

Rainbows forelegs were over her head gripping at the pillow agents the headboard.

I couldn't hold out much longer, the head of my dick felt like it was burning, wanting to pop again.

I slammed home hard and ground myself against her. Rainbow shut her eyes tight and bit her lower lip as another wave of warm girl cum sprayed from where we were connected at the waist.
The stream hit me like Rainbow was overflowing. My chest was soaked with Rainbows release, it smelt like pure liquid sex, and it felt heavier than water for some reason.

"Rainbow, now its my turn." I said.

"I, inside….make sure you cum inside me." she pleaded to me with her face covered in sweat.

Yes ma'am.

With a few more thrusts I pushed myself all the way up into her and released again.

"Ah! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" Rainbow moaned with her mouth open and her tongue hanging out the side.

She was past the point of no return, at that moment she was putty in my hands (not that she knew what hands were of course).
But I wasn't done with her yet, their was one more thing I had wanted to do to her for a while now.

I waited for her to come down a little bit from cloud nine or whatever number Rainbow gave to the cloud she liked to be on when she came.
I then gently lifted her up and turned her over onto her belly. With her head and upper body flat on the mattress, I lifted her rump up to put her in the traditional position for when a stallion rutted a mare.

She moved her tail and stuck her little butt out at me giving it a little wiggle to entice me into taking her. I dropped to my knees and took her rump into my hands.
It wasn't "big" but it wasn't small either, and it was soft but firm at the same time with just the right amount if juggle when played with.

I opened her cheeks causing Rainbow to let out a little squeak as she lay helpless with her most delicate and personal place being stared at and played with at the same time.

She was really embarrassed, but sweet Celestia she loved it!

Her anus was almost puckering at me like it wanted a kiss really bad.

So with my mouth and tongue I gave it what it wanted. I lapped and kissed her tail hole as if I were kissing her on the mouth.
I could tell that Rainbow kept her asshole clean since the flavor was actually kinda nice. Her squirting fits had soaked her rectum with its juices.

It tasted like the first rainfall of spring, sweet but a little bitter at the same time.

I could've stayed like that and kept making mouth love to her ass forever, but Rainbow was beginning to squirm and make sounds of frustration which told me it was time to get back to business.

With one last kiss to her pink rose bud, I rose and took my dick in hand. Taking careful aim at her dripping marehood, I pushed inside with all the speed of a snail.

If this was going to be the finish then I wanted it to be memorable to her, and to do that I was going to make her suffer.

Just a little bit.

To Rainbow it felt like hours before I was all the way inside, she bit into a pillow to keep her from screaming her head off and waking the neighbors.

I pulled out just until I was at her opening before I grabbed onto the base of her tail and pulled hard until she came slamming back down on me.
Her wings began to flap so I held on tighter to her tail as I used it as leverage to slam her rump back onto my now throbbing shaft, every time I did this she scrammed into the pillow, muffling her cries and her pleads to pound her harder.

Her wings beat harder as I slammed home and after a while she began to lift off the bed.

"Your…..not getting……..away…….that….easily……princess!"

I reached out and grabbed both her wings at the base, the muscles at the base of her wings were harder than wood and they were pulsing with blood so hard it felt like they would burst.

With a wing in both hands I pulled her even harder into my thrusts, all the while her wings still tried to flap harder and harder as I went.

And let me tell you, it wasn't easy keeping her grounded.

Rainbow reached a hoof between her legs until she found my scrotum as it slapped against her wet mound. She gently grasped them and pulled them slightly toward her, as if she were controlling how I rut her.

She must have felt my balls twitch inside because she now pulled them toward her harder, as if she were ordering me blow my load inside her or else.

"Rainbow, Im cumming!"

Rainbow quickly looked back at me with a smile and her tear streaked eyes were glazed over with lust. When it comes to a mare in heat its not a want, its a need.

"I…I can feel your cum, hear! inside your sack, their saying they want to go home, that they want their new home to be my, my…….MY WOMB!"

Ok boys say hello to your brothers and sisters for me.

I slammed in just as the first spurt shot out of my dick so hard and so fast that it almost hurt, Rainbows pussy muscles gripped me at the base and worked their way up to the tip.

I was literally being milked by her plot.

The next two shots felt like thick rope being let out my tip and the last one was a sputter of the last three.

My heart was going a thousand miles a second and sweat dripped from my face and body freely onto Rainbows back. I let go of her wings which had stopped flapping as soon as she felt my cum release inside her, and they were now starting to return to their normal state. Rainbow fell face first into a soft pillow and her inner muscles finally relaxed enough for me to finally ease out of her bit by bit.

Once I was free of her grip she took a deep tired breath and rolled over onto her back. She smiled up at me through the mess of rainbow hair that stuck to her sweat covered face.

With her back legs open she grunted a little bit as a wad of cum began to ooze from her now red and battered pussy. I looked up to see that her two little teats were now pink and slightly swollen, like two mosquito bites.

Most likely from when they were rubbing against my stomach so fast and rough.

I put my hand on her belly and began rubbling it in a circular motion, stopping every now and again to poke and fiddle with her nipples and belly button.

"That feels sooooo good, and I really want you to keep going, but, yawn, Im so tired." Rainbow said sleepily.

I laid down next to her and she scooted herself into my arms, with her sock covered hooves gently resting on my chest, she nuzzled her head into the side of my neck.

I reached over and turned off the lamp before returning to our cuddling session. It was silent, only the gentle breathing of the pony in my arms was to be heard as the soft pale moonlight shined through the curtains.

"Cain……….did I…….feel good, to you?" Rainbow asked cuddling herself deeper into me.

I gave her a squeeze.

"Yes Rainbow, it felt very good rutting with the "princess" that I love." Rainbow giggled a little before giving my neck a soft kiss.

I guess a mare just likes hearing that once in a while.

I can't remember when exactly I fell asleep but soon enough we both drifted off into the night.

The next day at breakfast me and Rainbow were in the kitchen. Rainbow sat at the table as I prepared cheese and mushroom with tomato omelets for two, their was a bit of an awkward silence but not so much that we didn't smile at each other when our eyes met, or exchanged a kiss every few minuets.

perhaps thats the sign of when you've found somepony really special, when the two of you can be alone together and just enjoy each others silence.

After we had finished breakfast, Rainbow looked like she had been completely restored.

"Oh my gosh! Cain, I forgot to tell you." She looked fairly excited.

"Stay calm now." I advised as I sat across the table from her.

"Now, whats up?" I asked, now a little curious.

"Yesterday after you blacked out at sugar cube corner, I told Mrs. Cake about your job hunt and you know what she said?"

I shrugged my shoulders.

"Good luck?"

Rainbow rolled her eyes at me.

"No! she said to come back any time in the next two days and shell give you an interview, isn't that awesome?!"

I could have started crying right then and their, but for the sake of being a guy I chocked it back.

I got up and hugged Rainbow, what felt like the hardest I had ever hugged her in all the time I had known her.

From their hugging turned to more hugging, more hugging turned to kissing, kissing soon turned to making out which lead to more making out followed by a few more minutes of making out which finally lead to us talking.

We decided to go out for a walk over to sugar cube corner to see about that job interview, and because we needed to let the room air out the smell of sweat and body oder.

It was a warm sunny day in town, not much seemed to be going on, and most of all, ponies seemed to acknowledge me but didn't seem to be afraid.

I guess the sun is shining in more ways than one today.

We approached where town hall sits when I noticed that Rainbow was ever so slightly trying to lean against my outer thigh, maybe it was her way of trying to hold hooves or in my case hands.

I was about to say something when all of a sudden Rainbow stopped completely. I looked over at her to find that her gaze was averted up to the sky and she wore an almost shocked look.

I too looked up to the mysterious thing that had caught her eye, but immediately wished that I hadn't, the sky might as well have been falling.

In the direction of Canterlot flying fast toward Ponyville was non other that the raiser of the sun, the goddess of light, the co-ruler of all of ponydom.

Princess Celestia.

"Cain! you have to hide!" Rainbow ordered hastily.

"Wha, I, uh." I stuttered.

"Cain, do you know who that is, its princess Celestia! Do you have any idea what she might do to you if she sees a human with a pony?!"

I was a bit confused, and in shock.

"W, what?" I asked, not yet fully aware of how doomed I was.

"Thats just it, I don't know! But do you want to find out?!"

Now I was awake.

"Your right, what do I do?!" I asked in a panic.

Rainbows head darted back and forth as she looked for a fix, until her eyes rested on a stack of crates about twenty hooves away from where we stood.

"There, hide behind those!" She cheered pointing to the crates.

I swiftly began to dart over to the sanctuary.

"Be careful ok?" I said to Rainbow before I was out of earshot.

Not long after I had ducked behind my sanctuary, I witnessed the descent of the princess of all ponies. She was without a doubt the second most radiant pony I had ever seen.

Her coat was as white as snow and her mane and tail radiated with a pastel rainbow which flowed and wafted on a non existent breeze. it was like stardust in space, their but not at the same time. Her wings were three times the size of Rainbows and the perfectly preened feathers seemed to shine in the light like spear tips.

She landed in front of Rainbow and the two began talking. I wished that I could hear what they were saying but I knew it couldn't be good, princesses don't just talk to their subjects and they don't do that right after they just fall from the sky no chariot no nothing.

My mind began to go go go with thoughts of punishment. The princess must have gotten word that a human moved to Ponyville and was trying to seduce one of her subjects. That must be it, she must be asking Rainbow if she's been molested or harassed by any humans lately. Rainbow must be trying to throw her off the scent by lying to her, good job Rainbow.

Wait! not good job!

What if the princess docent believe her? What if she can tell that Rainbow is lying? What if she dragged Rainbow back to Canterlot and throws her into a torture chamber until she talks?

Not while I'm breathing!

With out a second delay I came out of my hiding place and made a mad dash to where Rainbow and the princess stood. Once I was almost to them I leapt forward and slid on my stomach like a ball player sliding into second at the princesse's gold slippered hooves.

"Waaaaait!" I hollered.

The sun goddess looked down at me with a confused look.

"Please! you don't have to punish her! She didn't do anything! It, it was me, I forced her to to be with me!"

Princess Celestea looked over at Rainbow.

"Rainbow Dash, is this the human that Ive heard about?" The princess asked in the most elegant voice I had ever heard.

Rainbow stood up tall before her princess.

"Yes your majesty, and Im sorry but I love him, so if you're going to punish him, then you'll have to punish me too." I was a fool to think that Rainbow would let me take all the heat, I should have put my hand over her mouth.

Now she was going to get in trouble because of me.

"Punishment, why what ever do the two of you mean?" The princess asked.

Now it was my turn to be confused.

"Pardon me your highness, but aren't you mad about a pony and a human being together?" To this the princess let out a hearty laugh before she raised a hoof to wipe away a tear.

"Heavens no child, I may be the co-ruller of equestrian but that doesn't mean that I have the power, or the desire, to stop my subjects from falling in love."

Her subject? A princess of equestrian considers me, a human, one of her subjects?

Maybe I miss judged her.

She smiled warmly at us.

"I was young once to you know."

Something didn't make sense though.

"So, your majesty, if I may ask, why are you here?" I asked.

The princess looked down at me as I got off my stomach and sat next to Rainbow.

Her expression changed to one that was a bit more serious.

"Well the first reason was that princess Twilight Sparkle was worried that with all of her friends away that Rainbow Dash might be lonely, and asked if I might check in and see how she was doing."

Wait, "Princess" Twilight Sparkle? The same "Twilight" that Rainbow had told me about? The one that went through some changes and was busy with work in Canterlot? That Twilight?

Wow, just wow, Rainbow must be well connected, I hadn't even thought to connect those two points.

"The other reason was that I received word that an professor from the University of Canterlot was here in ponyville and was saying some very cruel and raciest things in the town square yesterday, it wasn't you was it, ummm-"

"Cain, your majesty, and yes, it seemed that the brunt of her anger was pointed at me." I explained to the princess.

To this she lowered her head a bit in shame.

"I am truly sorry for that Cain, please believe me when I say that I do not condone such behavior and that I have asked that she be put on administrative leave, until a time when she can see a pony, or in your case human, for the characters of their heart and not the actions of their ancestors."

"Uh, thank you princess." I said.

Rainbow stepped forward a bit.

"Princess, how is Twili- I mean, princess Twilight, doing?" She asked sounding a little worried.

Princess Celestia seemed to perk up at the topic.

"Oh she's doing fine, her studies are coming along smoothly, what more can I expect from my most faithful student?"

Rainbow seemed to ease up a bit to hear that her dear friend was not only ok but thriving since her ascension to alicorn status.

Princess Celestia cracked a wicked smile then, and I felt a tug of fear at what she was planing.

"By the way Rainbow Dash, you will remember to extend me an invitation, won't you?"

Rainbow cocked an eye brow.

"Invitation, to what?"

The princess covered her mouth with a hoof which made her look like a gossipy little school mare.

"Why the wedding of course." She stated sweetly.

Rainbows coat went as white as a sheet, and her eyes rolled into the back of her head. Just before she fell over from a rush of blood to her head she dizzily said the word "Wedding?".

I caught her as she slumped over onto me.

"Oh my, I was just having a little fun with the dear, guess I went a little to far, Lunas always telling me not to do that." She said mostly to herself.

"Well Mr. Cain, before I go, I was wondering if you would be willing to listen to an old mares story for a while?"

I can't really say no to a ruler of Equestria now can I?

"Of course your majesty."

The princess smiled before she sat down before me and the now unconscious Rainbow.

"Many years ago, before me and my sister were crowned as rulers of this land we were agents of the United Ponies of Equestria, not even one hundred years had passed since Equestria was founded by the three tribes. Me and my sister were tasked with finding towns and villages and liberating all slaves within, weather they be pony, cow, pig, goat, or any creature that was held in chains."

Princess Celestia and princess Luna were the ones who freed the ponies of ancient Equestria?

"Back then, my sister and I felt for humans the same way that Miss. Whinniefred did. Of course when we first approached a village we would tell the humans that if they didn't free all they held prisoner, that we would liberate them by force. But even when they did try and attack us we only subdued the ones that showed hostility. I just wanted you to know that none of your ancestors blood has ever stained my hooves."

I looked down at Rainbows sleeping face and wondered how anyone could be as cruel as the ancient humans were.

"But one faithful day we received word of a large town on the outskirts of Saddle Arabea, where manny ponies and other innocent creatures had suffered whip and chain for many many moons. So me and my sister set out to this town only to find that it was much larger than we had planned, not only that but it was surrounded by great walls that would have made for getting the prisoners out safely quite hard. As night fell we prepared to attack, but just before I fired the first shot I saw something approaching us."

She had my attention before but now she had it fully.

"It was a human, maybe a little older than you, he had kind eyes, Ha! listen to me, all these years latter and its his eyes that I remember best. Anyway, me and Luna prepared ourselves to take him down if we had to, but instead he said that he knew who we were and that he wanted to help us. We were weary of him at first and I was ready to strike him down if needed be. He showed us to a secret underground tunnel, that branched out to almost every home in the city. We worked throughout the night taking families, orphans, foals, and elderly, but before the sun rose we had freed all that were held within the city walls."

Well I can say this about the princesses of Equestria, they are anything but "namby pamby".

"Im sorry, it seems that I'm rambling. The point Im getting at is that without the selfless service of one who we once regarded as our enemy, many countless generations of ponies and other creatures would have never known the taste of freedom, and because one was willing to go against not only his own people, but what he had been taught from birth what was "normal", no one, pony or human was hurt."

I felt something for my own people then, something that I had never felt before……….pride.

"What happened to him after that?"

Princess Celestia gazed up as if she were recalling the day as we spoke.

"My sister took the herd to meet up with our friend Discord, I stayed behind to make sure they were not followed. I thanked him from the bottom of my heart and asked if he would return with us to Equestria, I told him he would be herald as a hero and a liberator. But he declined, I asked if he was going to return to his home in the town. But he said that he didn't have a home to return to anymore."

"So, what happened to him?" I asked.

"Without a word he stood and walked off into the desert alone. I watched as he faded off into the horizon, until the sand completely enveloped him and he was gone. I never even asked his name, so since then Ive always remembered him as "Sand". After me and my sister sat upon the throne, I decreed that all humans would be granted citizenship to Equestria, in hopes that old wounds would have a chance to heal. Im sorry that you had to bear witness to such an ugly thing from one of my little ponies Cain."

Princess Celestia stood up and brushed some dust from one of her forelegs.

"Im sorry, Id love to stay and chat more, but the duties of a princess are never done."

With Rainbow in my arms I stood with the princess.

"Thank you……for telling me that your highness."

The princess flashed me a bright smile.

"Your very welcome, I hope to have another conversation in the near future." She said in a sing song tone.

"Id like that very much." I replied

As the princess spread her wings and got ready to take off she flashed me one of her wicked smiles.

"You will make sure to take good care of my element bearer, Ive never banished a human to the moon, and Id hate for you to be the first."

I almost wet myself.

"Y, yes ma'am." Princess Celestia flapped her huge wings and took off into the sun like a hawk.

I found myself at the park sitting by the same pond that I had first met Rainbow. The sky blue mare slept in my arms as I looked out onto the sparkling water and recalled the story the princess had told me.

For so long I thought of my own people the same way that ponies had seen me, as monsters, as evil things. Like a child that grew up with abusive parents, only thinking of them as that ugly thing you kept locked in your closet.

And in a way, maybe I even hatted myself, maybe thats why I tried to shun Rainbow away from me so much at first. What I couldn't see in myself, I couldn't imagine aneypony else seeing in me.

But like Sand had done with princess's Celestia and Luna, Rainbow had done with me.

Like a circle.

"Mmmm, Cain? What happened, where are we?" Rainbow asked as she began to stir.

"Good to see your ok, you passed out so I bought you to the park." I said to the sleepy mare on my lap.

"Mmmmm, ok……..whats that blurry thing in the background?" Rainbow asked groggily gesturing with a hoof toward Ponyville.

"Home Rainbow…….thats home." I said unable to hold back the tears any longer.

Author's Note

Cue end them-

Thanks for reading y'all, I know that a lot of you didn't want it to end so soon, but don't worry theirs still one more adventure for our boy. Adventure in the form of a butter yellow pony.

So I'm here in san diego visiting my dad and heard about comic con and thought Id check it out, so I wanted to share my experience and thoughts on that day. Tickets were sold out but I thought to try to get in anyway, I told the people at the registration that I was just out of the army and that I wasn't able to get a ticket on time. They said it was heart breaking but no. So then I asked a few people if they wouldn't mind holding my valuables and let me borrow their pass for a few minuets. Again no, so thair I was sitting on a hill watching all the thousands of people going into the con, and I couldn't stop thinking how un fair it was. Here I was, an army veteran, one of many who helped support and defend the freedoms that allowed this con to even exist and Im turned away? Then I had a moment of clarity, I felt proud that me and my brothers and sisters had helped to make suck an amazing thing posable.
Like Rainbow Dash said, "It feels good to help others get something you always wanted but never had. Almost as good as getting it yourself, almost." So even if I couldn't get in I fell proud that in a small way, I helped make it happen.
