Girls Night.

After a long had day of apple bucking Applejack worked up quite the sweat, removing her Stetson and running her hoof through her long blonde hair she looked at the buckets filled to the brim with apples.

"Sure was a heck of a day." She thought to herself.

"Don't rightly like tootn' my own horn but they ain't no better apple bucker in all of Equestria." Admiring her hoof work she thought a drink of water was in order. Looking side to side Applejack knew where she could aquire such drink, the lake. She didn't want any other pony knowing about the hidden lake, it was a place where she could let loose, a place all to her own.

Seeing that there was no other pony around, Applejack took off at full speed toward the nearby lake. Thinking of the almost crystalline, sparkling and very refreshing water of the lake made Applejack stuck her tongue out the side of her mouth. "Very unladylike" she heard Rarity in the back of her mind. Running past the various amounts of trees, bushes, and the occasional bramble, Applejack finally made it to the lake. Without hesitation she jumped on a rather large boulder and bucked off of it into the setting sun, only to crash down into the clear refreshing lake.

Splash, she went. "Oh my goodness." She said as she slurped a large amount of water. "This is it, this is what matters, these little things that make lifeworth livin'."

"I thought I was what made life worth living!" Said a familiar voice.

Shocked and a little embarrassed AJ quickly put her hooves up to her chest and blushed. Looking around for the intruding pony Applejack knew her secret place had been found out. "Come on out Rainbow." She said as she was exiting the lake.

"It's not nice to peep on people, specially when they think they are alone."

Suddenly she saw the rainbow maned mare step out of the shadowy trees. She donned a blue leather jacket with a grey shirt underneath, a red bandana and two simple earrings just below the tip of her right ear. Rainbows mane was frazzled and was pointed upward. She had on long eyelashes and a slightly darker shade of blue then her coat of masquera. She finished the ensemble with a pair of loose fitting pony jeans that didn't really cover her exposed flank.

Applejack looked in awe at the very attractive pony, it made her blush a deep crimson and made her look away in purely childish way. Rainbow Dash noticed and began walking toward the soaking pony.

"Wait." She said.

At that moment AJ shook vigorously trying to get all the water off of herself. Dash was beside herself watching the glistening blonde hair wave and shake in all directions. Then again. And one last time, she was dry, Dash walked up to the now dry pony and picked up her hat placing it on her own head. Rainbow always teased her by taking her hat and placing it on her own head, it was a fun game to Dash but AJ didn't seem to like it.

"You know how I get Rainbow..."

"It's how we got together, remember?"

I r'member me bucking you up cuz y'all wouldn't give it back."

"Yeah, we kissed for the first time on that day."

Rainbow lowered her head letting the hat drop off her head then catching it with her teeth, she then tossed it to Applejack which landed on her head perfectly. They stared at each other for a long while, rainbow had a neutral face on. AJ bit her lower lip and furrowed her brow, she was excited and horny; but she was concerned more than anything.

"yuh know rainbow, I know I'm asking a lot keeping out relationship a secret and all and I thank ya for agreeing but, I think I'm ready to tell our friends."

Rainbow Dash and Applejack had been going out for the last 6 months and kept it a secret because they were afraid of the ridicule and teasing that they would get from thier family and friends. Especially AJ she was known for her fortitude and dominance, but to be swayed by another mare wasn't like her at all. She didn't think anypony would expect her to be a filly-fooler.

Dash leaned in and kissed her mare lover on the lips, it was electric every time, she had no idea how she had gotten so lucky. She got the straightest mare in all of PonyVille to go filly-fooler. Her lips were soft and supple; no tongue, it wasn't needed for what she was trying to get across. She then broke the kiss, she looked at AJ who was still in kiss position. Her eyes shut with her lips pushed out.

So cute~

Rainbow thought to herself, six months have passed and she still does that. It made her heart flutter, her breath short and her hooves lighter than ever.

"I love you Jackie" Dash said. With a seductive voice, eyes half open.

"I love you too.....mah Dashie." As she nuzzled her Pegasus ponys cheek.

POMF-

Her wings were at full salute. She simply smiled and blushed lightly, it always made her do that....that pet name. They hugged for a few more seconds and let go. The both felt warm and loved.

"We should get goin'."

The walk back to Sweet Apple Acres was a quiet one, AJ just walked as she rested her head on the side of rainbows neck. She was in love with the filly next to her, she would do anything for her. Rainbow knew she loved her, and rainbow loved her equally but as her cool appearance would have it she had to maintain her façade.

AJ just sighed heavily, and closed her eyes as she continued to rest on her filly. The barn was in sight, and she knew she had to break away from her lover. She didn't, she didn't break away, rainbow looked down at her and smiled, knowing that she had built some resolve. She wanted her here and now in the field, to just a quick lick of her sex, that's all she needed but, she knew she couldn't. The idea made her laugh, then she spoke up.

"Baby, I admire your courage but, it's not time yet. Our friends are one thing but your family is something completely different." She stopped as she said it.

"Ah know rainbow, I would just like for us not to be so secretive." AJ said as she stepped in front of rainbow dash.

"We're really close to your house AJ, and I know we can't kiss in front of your family."

With a smile she got the idea, she closed her eyes and waited for her lovers lips to meet her own. Suddenly AJ was was tacked to the ground, she looked up in surprise. Rainbow was above her ready to devour that little mouth, she moved down to kiss her prized pony.

Thier mouths met with a warm embrace, Rainbow lowered her body onto Applejack's she was warm and soft. They kissed passionately, AJ's had enough of the soft sensual kisses, she opened her mouth and let Rainbow dive deep into her mouth. Her tongue was obviously far more skilled than AJ's, she just let Dash move and twist it in her own mouth. Saliva mixing in both hungry mouths, moaning and gripping each other as if they would float away the very instant they would let go.

Finally ending the kiss by biting and sucking Applejack's lower lip and moaning in pleasure, she lifted her head and inhaled the cold air of Luna's night.

"Oh...oh baby..." AJ said still in her trance.

"I love that about you Jackie." Dash said as she got off of her.

"No matter how many times we kiss you always end up like that. Still entranced by kiss and, you always keep your mouth as we are still kissing."

"Oh for Celestia's sake! Do ah still do that?" She was getting up fixing her mane and repositioning her Stetson.

"Yeah, nearly every time." She said proudly.

"Alright, alright your sexy as hell and you make me near lose mah self in y'all kissesis that such a bad thing." She said blushing way harder than she had thought.

"I don't know if you were attacking me or not but you're doing a real bad job of it." She said standing on her hind legs while crossing her fore legs.

"Hey how y'all doin' that?" She AJ said.

"I saw it in one of Lyra's mags of alternate universes, all the pony's...er...hoomans stand this way." She replied.

"Ew it's creepy, stop that." Applejack said more impressed than disgusted.

"Ha ha, okay...anyways you gotta get ready for tonight." Dash said.

Shortly after getting to Applejack's home Rainbow and Applejack both fixed thier outfits for the nighting ahead. Staring into mirror and side by side they worked on thier make up making sure everything was perfect. Through the time they were fixing themselves Rainbow kept tickling AJ's legs with her tail.

"Quit it rainbow! My brother is right in the next room." She whispered harshly.

"You love it." She replied looking at AJ's reflection.

"That's besides the point." She whispered back.

Rainbow dash just smiled and continued to spike her hair up and forward, looking down she winked at her filly friend. AJ felt shudders go through her body, and began blushing even harder. How does he she do it? For Celestia's sake how does she always get under my skin so easily?

"Celestia be damned..." She whispered to her sexy lover.

"What?" Rainbow said

"Nothing...nothing." She said as she looked deep into those pink and rosy eyes.

She then moved in and kissed her softly on the cheek. "You can't do that Jackie, what if some one see us kiss?" Not really asking as if she was afraid, more conserved for her.

"What if people saw you kiss?" Said a small voice behind them.

They both turned to see a yellow filly laying on AJ's bed with a giant smile on her face. The two mares faced each other and knew what they had to do. They inched closer to the now unsettled AppleBloom. At that moment AppleBloom ran for the door but knowing that she planned to escape Applejack grabbed her rope and lassoed the nosy filly.

"No fair!" Said the annoyed filly.

"Serves ya right eavesdropping, how in tarnation didja get in here?" She asked as she tightened the last knot.

"I was in here the whole time!" She said struggling against the ropes that bound her. "Y'all didn't even bother checking! Y'all only assumed ya was alone. Together....with her." She said as she pointed her snout toward Rainbow Dash.

"Jackie this is bad. We don't know if she can keep our secret." Rainbow said looking down at the red maned filly.

"Jackie?!" AB said laughing.

"She calls ya Jackie? Hahahaha, Oh Celestia that's so adorable!" She said giggling.

"Apple Bloom I swear to Celestia if ya say one thing to Mac or Granny Smith ah'll make sure your hide will be so tanned ya won't be able to sit till next apple bucking season." AJ only used this voice when she was scolding her. Apple Bloom was not used to it at all, in fact it down right terrified her, but she found resolve in the brutal scolding.

"Are ya two together?" She asked weakly.

Rainbow looked up from AppleBloom to her filly-lover, she nodded at AJ and held out her hoof to her. Applejack simply nodded as well and took her hoof. Like if the tied up filly wasn't in the room. AJ and RD looked at each other with desire, the desire not to a secret anymore. AppleBloom looked in awe as the two mare locked in a kiss, it was simple, clean, pure and full of love.

The kiss was let go, and then the looked in each others eyes. And AppleBloom knew her answer. She didn't need to ask again, it was obvious these two mares were madly in love. They looked down at the helpless yellow filly back at each other.

"So what do ya think AppleBloom? About your older sister being a filly-fooler."

AB looked at them both and then asked the only thing she could. "Are y'all happy?" They both nodded, without looking at each other.

"Ok sis, I'm happy for ya, and if yur gonna be with a mare, I'm glad it's you rainbow." She said happily.

"Awe well aren't ya just the best sister ever!" AJ said while hugging her bound sister. AppleBloom smiled again and wiggled her legs. She was signaling to her sister to untie her. Rainbow just smiled a very relaxed smile.

"We'll ah suppose." She untied the filly and hugged her for being so understanding. "How long have y'all been...you know.." She asked as she giggled. "Six months I reckon, right Dash?"

"That's right I swept you sister right of her hooves, about six months ago. After that Jackie couldn't so much as look at another colt or mare." AJ just blushed at the statement.

"How romantic." AppleBloom said out loud.

"Yeah, it was." AJ replied.

After the a long while of talking with AppleBloom both mares needed more time to fix themselves up. Rainbow Dash was just fixing her already done hair and make up making sure it was absolutely perfect. AJ on the was trying out the leather jacket Rainbow had gotten her. It was red with gold plated steel bits, her hair was slicked back into one long braid. She the applied lip stick to herself and make a kissing face. She looked and felt amazing. Her hair braided the Stetson atop her head and the red leather jacket, she looked absolutely stunning.

"Good idea, if we were lipstick the others won't know that we kissed." Rainbow said as she took the lipstick from AJ.

"I thought we were gonna tell them anyways."

"Not at first, we need them to drink a lil first. It will be a lot easier that way."

"Oh Dash, you're terrible."

Dash just stuck her tongue out, and smiled again. The were both finished now and decided that they should head to Twilight's library, it was the designated location they all agreed on before heading to the bar. Nothing eventful happened on the way to the bar, although they did get a few whistles by some random stallions and colts. They walked a fair distance apart in order not to draw too much attention.

Rainbow Dash wanted desperately to fly but, held he wings in tightly in order to walk by her Earth pony. As they continued walking through the lonely streets of PonyVille to Twilight's Dash thought to her self. "Awe buck it." She then walked closer to Applejack and placed her wing over the now excited mare. AJ looked at her girlfriend hoping to spark a kiss from her. Rainbow kept her cool composure and looked staight ahead.

"She so cool, and she picked me." AJ thought to herself she was in the deepest of crushes. Even though they where already together, Applejack felt like a school filly on the side of her date. Her heart rate picked up and so did her breathing, even after all this time she still felt so surprisingly giddy.

Rainbow stopped. Then turned to AJ and said something she didn't catch, she was too caught up in her own mind. Rainbow Dash gave her a puzzled look and spoke again. Again she didn't catch it, she was too far deep in her thought, but snapped out of it with a quick shake of her head.

"Huh?" She said incoherently.

"We are getting close to the house we should separate for the time being." Rainbow said for the 3rd time. She was used to this too, she found it down right adorable. AJ nodded and stepped a foot way. The library was now in sight, and the lights where on. Walking up to the front door Dash knocked and waited.

The door to the library opened, spike was at the door, he had grown a lot since the Crystal Epire incident. He was now a few inches taller than most ponys, and became muscular and his spines were more pointed than rounded. His eyes even took a deeper shade of sage. Spike was wearing a white muscle shirt and and brown cargo pants, with a black belt holding it up.

Rainbow Dash and Applejack both tried really hard not to look at Spikes exposed abs they were really toned, chubby belly as a baby was now gone. His physic was a clear marker that he was now older and becoming attractive to his mare friends. His spines were the most obvious to have changed. They were longer, thinner and spiked out further, the rounded spikes off of his head were the most prominent.

"Hey handsome, is Twilight in?" AJ asked. The compliment had caught him off guard, he wasn't used to receiving such nice admiration. Even though his body was covered in scales it was obvious he was blushing slightly. More and more mares where complimenting him on his new attributes but, he felt the same even though he could kill a whole group of stallions with his new strength and not to meantion his fire breathing had gotten bigger and longer thanks to Twilight's training.

"Yeah, she's getting ready up stairs. Come on in can I get you something to drink?" His voice had changed too that of a young adult. It still had that young spike like charm to it but, the change was clear. He lead the two exceptional looking mares into the main room of the library.

"What do ya got to offer spike?" AJ asked.

"Well, Twilight loves to drink those girly beers, I guess you can have some of them. Honestly they suck they have like no alcohol in them."

"Sounds fine Spike,ahl have one of them." He nodded and looked at dash pointing a finger.

"Got any liquor?" She asked playfully.

"Got Ruby laced fire whiskey, it's for dragons but ill let you try it see what you think?" He responded waiting for a response himself.

"Yeah boy, that's what I'm talking about!" She said excitedly. "Alright, I'll be back."

He walked into the kitchen and he made loud clinking noises. The two mares where sitting on the couch waiting patiently. AJ looked at Dash and winked at her, she loved being playful when her friends where around, it made the secret a kind of rush of sexual desire. Dash's heart rate picked up slightly, she responded with bitting her lower lip and looking innocent. AJ put her hooves up to her snout and sniffed the center where they met. Dash put her hooves together and stuck her tongue out like if she was licking something.

Applejack blushed hard, she was loosing the battle, she retreated to the only thing that would win it for her. Aj leaned in and whispered the last thing that Rainbow Dash wanted to hear in this situation.

"uuuhhh.....Dashie...." Applejack moaned her name right in her ear.

POMF-

Her wings were at full salute yet again, Rainbow lost all her cool in that very instant. Straining to put her wings back behind her she used her hooves to press them down forcefully. Applejack would have none of this, she got closer and started rubbing the inner feathers with hooves. "Stop it." Dash whispered. AJ just continued to rub the outer feathers and slowly going back to the inner feathers. "Jackie....pl...please s..sstop...y-you w-w-win...."Applejack knew Rainbow was intensely aroused and very wet. AJ looked around to see if spike had returned or if Twilight was finished getting ready. It was still early in the night and they planned being at the bar for a long time so time was no issue.

"Am gonna make ya cum right here an' now." The sexy tone with the accent was too much for the prism pony. She began breathing hard and the wing massage wasn't helping. AJ kissed the panting pony and slipped her tongue into the now very horny Rainbow Dash.

Rubbing the wings very quickly and soothingly, with the intruding tongue in her mouth Dash was at the complete mercy of her secret lover. Little whimpers and moans escaped her mouth into Applejacks. She continued to vigorously rub down the wings and lap her tongue in all directions. The whimpers got louder and her breathing got heavier, AJ let the kiss go so that she could focus on the wings harder, she knew her Dashie was mere moments away from pure ecstasy. "Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh!" Rainbow said as she hit her peak.

Rainbow had stifled a long satisfying whimper, she grabbed her mare lover in a strong embrace as the powerful wing-gasm coursed through her body, it was electric. She convulsed for a few seconds moaning ever so softly into AJ's shoulder. Then she composed herself, she couldn't quite breathe normally yet.

"Bitch..." RD said breathlessly. Applejack just smiled and replied.

"Slut..."

"I love you." Dash said.

"I love you too." AJ said with a smile.

She loved getting rainbow off and her wings were her weak spot, a few good rub downs and she was jelly. It was hard at first, getting used to the sensitivity of the wings was hard, she had seriously hurt rainbow in the past by trying to make her cum with only massaging her wings.

Finally when the mood was settled, Spike returned with 7 shot glasses, a bottle of booze and a few beers. He set them on the table that was centered in the main hall. He looked at rainbow who was still a bit fuzzy from her orgasm just moments ago. He looked at her and pointed a scaly finger at her.

"You alright? You seem drained. I'm not saying dont drink but if your drunk already you may not want to drink this."

Dash got up and walked up to the muscular dragon. "Give me two."

"Alright, I knew I would have fun if you came along." Spike said cheerfully.

Spike poured four shots out and slid two of them to Dash. "Ah gotta see this." Said AJ under her breath. At that moment a knock came at the door.

"Awe jeez, right when I was gonna down it." Spike walked out to the foyer and opened the door. "Hello darling, it's so good to see you, is Twilight in?" It was Rarity Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy. They had all gotten to Twilight's home at the same time.

"Yeah, she upstairs still getting ready. Come in we're about to do some ruby shots."

"We're?" Said Fluttershy.

"Yeah, AJ and Rainbow Dash are already here. Come on let's do some warm up shots."

"Ha ha ha, good one Spike." Dash said as she came into view by the other ponys.

Rarity was dressed in a fancy corset with all manner of lacings and belts hanging off the sides her hair was done in the same manner as the odd dress it was braided in front of her chest with lacings all the same. The dress gleamed of shiny glitter as it complimented her purple hair.

Pinkie decided that a simple dress of very flamboyant colors was the way to go with her signature mane done. She looked nothing short of a train wreck, but she was happy and that's all that mattered to her.

Fluttershy on the other hand was a site to behold, her hair had been done up wildly but in a cute seductive way. She wore a white loose fitting t-shirt with neon multi-colored overlapping hearts. She also wore short hot pants, that let her flank hang out a little, her tail was as messy as her up-do but stylized in a was that made her look sexy and flashy. Finally accepting of her desision a few months ago Fluttershy, let her collar bone tattoo be exposed due to the loose fitting tee.

They all, for a lack of a better phrase were dazzling. As they entered the main hall a voice from above called the attention of the 6 who were on the lower level of the library. They all looked up and gasped, they could not believe the sight that was before them. It was twight....except it wasn't Twight at all....

The six below looked in awe at the very sexy looking Twilight, her hair had been straightened to the sides. She wore a very expensive looking black bomber jacket that went nearly a few inches to her waist, a grey shirt with her cutie mark on the center that cut off at her stomach. She wore very long white boots that went up her thighs and cut off at her very revealing violet booty shorts. Her make up made her face look like a completely different mare, it was simple but with Twilight's already cute complexion she didn't need much. Her tail was done as her hair was, simple but different enough to make her appearance transcend her purity.

"Wow sis, you look amazing." Said spike pouring more shots for the other mares.

She did look amazing but what Spike had just said made everypony look at him with a puzzled look.

"Sis? Like...sister?" Asked Fluttershy.

"Yeah, Spike is like a brother to me so I asked him if he would be my brother. And he agreed so we are family." Twilight retorted as she walked down the stairs to join her friends.

"We I think that is just fabulous darling, you two do act as if you were related, so it works I suppose." Rarity walked up to the center table as she spoke out to twilight and Spike.

"I think it's super duper exciting to have a brother, and I do and it is! Hehehe!" Pinkie giggled as she stated the obvious.

"Yeah, and we've been living together long enough so it's like it's true." Twilight walked up to the center table and with her magic she picked up a shot glass with a very red see through looking alcohol she knew was from Spike's collection.

She rose her cup into the air and exclaimed with great enthusiasm "To a great night!"

"Cheers" they all said before drinking thier share. Slamming their cups simultaneously on the wooden table they all gave a breath of relief. The booze had a very spicy taste and had a bite of extreme alcohol. In a surprising turn they all pushed thier cups toward spike and knocked on the wooden table, signaling they wanted another.

"Whoa, way more spicy-wicy than I thought." Pinkie stated as she knocked too.

"Feeling bold ladies?" Spike asked. "Dish it out Spike!" Said AJ. "Ahneed a good buzz before ah deal with bar jerks." The other mares just nodded and grunted in agreement.

Spike smiled and filled the cups to the top, it was a rather large bottle and had cost a whole emerald but, it was worth it to be sharing it with his friends. He was a little shocked that Fluttershy wanted to drink but, she didn't look like herself, her shy usual self so he just brushed it off. He had filled all the glasses and distributed them, then he filled his own.

"3...2...1..." Spike counted down and they all again shot the spicy liquid down thier throats. Slamming down the cups a second time. They all took thier shots no problem at all. Another breath of relief was taken from all the mares, accept Spike who was used to the burn.

"I take it none of you want these beers then?" He said as he pointed at the beers he had brought out for AJ. They all shook thier heads and just knocked on the table once more. Spike nodded his head and slid the empty glasses toward him with his tail, that was a lot longer now.

"Oh dear, when did your tail grow so big?" Fluttershy asked.

Spike answered as he refilled the cups. "You know it's funny Fluttershy." He spoke aloud, all ponys listening to his now adult voice. "As we all stopped hanging out as often, neither I nor Twilight even noticed till she pointed out I had grown significantly taller than her.

Every pony was a little bothered by his statement, it was true, the 6 didn't go out or hang out as much as they used to. Even pet day suffered a few absences by normal standards. With peace in Equestria, the Elements weren't called as much and they simply stopped seeing each other. Not to say that they didn't see each other every now and again but, the change was evident.

"It's funny, one time we were on our way to get some more quills and I told spike to 'hop' on, like I normally would." Spike waited for her to finish the story, remembering exactly were she was going and smiled. "So he jumped on my back and we both crashed down to the floor. It was sooo funny."

The other mare laughed along with Twilight. Spike just smiled some more and held the cups till they finished. Looking at all the glasses Spike had a sudden idea, he thought would work given the occasion. The ponys finished laughing and looked a spike expectant of thier glass.

"A pact" he said. The others looked quizzically at him. "After tonight we have to promise to be as it was, I don't know what happened but, we gotta hang out like we used to." He aligned the glasses in front of him on the table and blew fire at them igniting the alcohol.

"Leave it to my Spiky-wikey to bring us together again, I guess it's not just your body that has grown. I agree!" Rarity said.

"That's a great idea spike!" Both AJ and Dash said at once.

"Of course I will." Fluttershy said in a normal voice.

"Count me in!" Pinkie exclaimed.

"Me too!" Twilight said last.

"Awesome, I knew you all would." Spike then pushed all the glasses to thier current owners. They all received their cup and wondered how they were supposed to drink it.

Rainbow place her hoof on top of the shot and looked around to see if they had noticed her example. She just shook her head and smiled, she then raised her glass.

"To friendship!" She yelled. The others put out their flames in the manner rainbow had showed them. "To friendship!" They said before taking thier last shot.

With that spike collected the glasses and returened them to the to the kitchen with the unopened beers and bottle of fire whiskey. They were all at about a 3 on the drunk scale 10 being the limit and 15 being smashed or down right hammered. Spike returned with wearing a black leather jacket of his own.

"You're not the only ones ladies." Spike said admiring his own jacket. "Looking good Spike. Glad you found your style." Said Twilight.

"Well, lets get goin'." AJ said.

The group of mares and Spike, headed for the bar it was mostly quiet. Everypony walked in a group except for Dash and Applejack who walked a bit behind. The others noticed but didn't pay much attention, they knew those two were good friends and they knew they remained close after the inititial separation. Little to thier knowledge AJ was getting cold feet about telling them the truth about Dash and her.

"Ah dunno Rainbow, maybe it's a bad idea, ah mean what if they stop bein' are friends?, what if they hate us?" AJ was nervous and was beginning to sweat.

"Don't worry baby, I know they won't, they're our friends. They accept us no matter what we do." Rainbow Dash tried to contort her girl-friend, to no avail.

"I'm not forcing you to do anything you don't wanna do but, I am getting a little tired of sneaking around. Even though it is fun. Come ones catch up to the rest."

Rainbow Dash and AppleJack both ran up to the others and walked as if nothing had conspired. The just walked in a line with Rarity, Spike, Twilight, Pinkie, Fluttershy, AJ and Dash from left to right. Soon the bar was in sight. The big neon yellow sign that read 'The Bit' was in sight. It was in the more ghetto part of PonyVille, not to say that PonyVille had a ghetto but, it was obvious that this side was poorer.

The bar was down a flight of stairs and the walls are mostly cobble stone. The tables and chairs were wooden with a small amount of padding on each seat. Smoking was aloud in this establishment, so it was slightly smoky, it was aloud but not common. Most ponys were cool and collected, not many bar fights had happened in the past. There was a juke box on one of the respecting walls playing classic rock that made the mood seem more relaxed than what a bar usually has to offer. Pool tables were lined up in the far back of the bar offering entertainment for those who wanted it.

Another part of the bar was designated for dancing, it was now being used by very loose looking mares looking to snag a stallion and take him home for the night. On the respective wall that the jukebox was on there was a row of pinball machines flashing and blinking light, inviting ponys to play.

The ponys looked around the bar noticing it was much larger than they had anticipated. Dash walked ahead of the group and leaned over the counter were the bar-keep was; putting one hoof on her thigh and the other on the counter, she then spoke a few words. She listened to the response, nodded then laughed slapping her hoof on the counter, after she hoof-bumped him and left the counter back to her friends.

"This way ladies....and Spike." She lead them to her reserved booth that was much bigger than the others. It was closer to the far back where the pool tables were. Dash sat first, AJ next to her then Fluttershy. On the other side it was Twilight, Pinkie Pie,then Rarity, Spike grabbed a free chair and joined them on Ranbow Dash and Twilight's side of the table he chose that side because he wanted to be close to his sister and his back would be to the wall.

"Ok, so first round is on me. You can order what ever you want, seriously no limit. Dash's got this." Looking around the table dash waited for a response.

"How about just two pitchers of beer?" Twilight suggested.

"Am ok with that." AJ agreed.

"Yeah, sounds good Dash." Spike said with his his arms behind his head.

"Alright, I'll be right back." Rainbow headed back to the counter and again began talking with bar-keep.

"So...what have you all been up to?" Twilight asked with genuine curiosity.

"I've been setting up parties all over Equestria, colleges, universities, birthdays and business socials. The Cakes keep telling me how rich I'm making them, and that's good I guess, I just really really really like planning the parties, so it's not like a job at all!" She said cheerfully. "How bout you Twilight?"

"Twilight and I have been training." Spike cut in answering for her. "We have been honing out skills, ready for the next disaster. Honestly though it doesn't seem like anything new will come."

"Training" Twilight said looking at Spike with a dead eyed stare.

"That's good, you can never be too ready, or can you? You can be so ready that you're ready for anything that you are just paranoid all the time and you think that something is going happen but it doesn't so you just have to wait at home till it does happen but it doesn't and it......"

They let Pinkie ramble on on her own it would be a lot later that she would find the answer to the paradox that she had created entirely on her own. It has happened too many times in the past and they learned just to let her ramble and let her catch up later.

"Well, I've been working with ponys in the Crystal Empire after the last time we were there, they got word all the way from PonyVille that I made dresses. Can you believe it darling? Ponys all the way in the C.E. know about me and want me to make them dresses. Even Candance ordered a dress from me with specifications to her likings. Ooooh hoooo it's like a dream come true!" Rarity was fumbling with her braid and giggling.

"And you Fluttershy?" Rarity asked with Pinkie still counting an impossible amount of possibilities.

"I opened a vet at my house." She said in a normal voice. "I finally asserted myself and met the requirements to do it, and I did." Fluttershy looked around for Dash, luckily she was on her way back with 7 glasses and two full pitchers of cold beer.

"Yay...more alcohol...." Fluttershy said just above a whisper.

"Ya like drinking Shy?" Asked AJ with a raised eyebrow. Fluttershy just nodded and tried to hide behind her mane, but remembered she did her hair up so instead she just blushed harder than normal.

"I'm not a bad pony for liking a drink here and there." She said trying to redeem herself.

Placing the beer on the table and sitting next to her secret lover far closer than she should have, the whole group gave Rainbow an odd look. Looking at everypony she suddenly realizing her mistake she scooted over a bit and simply smiled.

"Can't hate a mare for trying." Said rainbow. The whole group just laughed, and grabbed a glass of beer.

"Oh Dash y'all too much." AJ said a it shaky. "I know. It's better that way. So who is brave enough to chug this glass with me?" Dash said daringly. The glasses at 'The Bit' were huge nearly 32oz. So it was a lot of beer to chug in one go.

"I will." Said a soft unexpected voice. "Nah come on fluttershy, stop playing around." Dash said quickly.

Looking at any other possible ponys or dragon to take her challenge, Dash looked around the table when a suddenly Fluttershy got up and slammed her hoof down hard on the table every pony looked at Fluttershy and she looked hard into Rainbow Dash's pink firery eyes with her icy blue ones.

"A bite to the bare flank for who ever finishes last." She said in a sharp challenging tone.

"Degenerates." Rarity said. "It's should be a bite and a slap to the flank!" The alcohol playing a role in her mannerisms.

"Oooh" the group said loudly. Not wanting to interfere they stayed silent after that. Smiles grew on all faces even Spike who leaned his chair back against the wall still with his claws behind his head.

Dash looked at Fluttershy for a few more seconds, then she turned down to AJ who was giving her a wicked smile. Then AJ opened her mouth and made a biting sound, she looked back at Fluttershy who still held her hard look. She then held her hoof out to signal that she wasn't kidding. This symbolized the hoof-bump, a pact between friends meaning there was no backing out.

Dash stood up and reached her hoof out. Fluttershy smacked it hard and readied her cup. As did dash, they were about to take a large amount of alcohol straight to the head. Dash didn't know if Shy was bluffing but, then again it had been a few years that they hadn't really hung out.

"On the count of three. And all the beer has to be drank, not a little left, or close enoughs." Shy said confidently.

"3....2..........1............Go!" Said Fluttershy. That very instant dash began to chug all her mouth would let her, she didn't pay attention to Shy she knew she had this in the bag and it would be something that she was better at than another pony. For some reason Shy just picked up her cup slowly and sipped it, tasting it. The other ponys just looked at her as she positioned the cup at her snout and let the alcoholic beverage simply slide down her throat no problem at all.

Fluttershy was done with her beer long before Dash was even half way, AJ tapped Dash in awe, looking at Fluttershy put the cup upside-down. Shy puffed up her chest and suddenly let out the loudest belch that anypony in the whole bar had heard. All the ponys in the bar just look at the now crimson faced Fluttershy, she wiped her snout and looked at Rainbow with a sly smile. She then removed her hair from her sight placing behind her ear.

Rainbow Dash couldn't believe it, she had been out chugged by the shyest, most timid pony in PonyVille or even all of Equestria. "I lost?"

"Woooo!!! Yeah!!!" The whole bar cheered fluttershy's monsterous burp, the crowd settled down. Fluttershy blushed even harder, not knowing what to do next she just stared at Rainbow.

"Listen Fluttershy, you weren't serious about the-" Fluttershy put he hoof up silencing her immediately.

"Finish your beer an meet me in the bathroom, last stall." She said as she walked away.

The group just rose thier eyebrows and snickered silently, dash tried very hard not to look down at AJ. Her resolve had been broken she knew she couldn't back out of this one. AJ just took her beer and took a long drink, then looked at Dash and pointed at her beer signaling her to drink it.

"Better get going, sugar cube." She said bluntly.

"You really gonna let her bite your flank?" Asked Twilight.

"I have to, I hoof-bumped." Rainbow said as she as she rose her cup and chugged the what remained. Once she was finished she placed the cup down and got out of the booth and sighed.

"Fuck..." She whispered. "Goddess AJ is gonna fit about this."

She walked past a few whisling patrons, and a few who had tried to grab at her flank. After a while of being in the bar scene Dash had trained her tail to instinctively whip hooves away, luckily she only had to whip away two.

The group could only see as the rainbow colored mare entered the mares bathroom. Before entering RD looked back at the group and shook her head.

"Do y'all think that shy is really gonna bite he hide?"

"We'll, just have to find out." Twilight replied.

"How undignified! Getting busy in a bar's bathroom." Rarity stated. "So unladylike."

"They ain't getting busy Rare, they ah....uh well yeah I guess they are." AJ just stopped trying to make it not seem as if her mare-friend wasn't in the bar restroom betting bit in the flank by her other friend.

"Hey Spike, you've been awfully quite, anything you wanna add?" Twilight asked the very relaxed dragon.

"Just enjoying the show." He said. Still leaning on the wall. Nobody had noticed but Spike had finished his glass long after the two mare had gone to their deed.

More than half of one pitcher and another full one remained, spike reached over and filled his cup again, he looked around and offered to fill he others. They agreed.

"Spike since when do you drink?" AJ asked him as he filled the glasses.

"Well, I thought about it and wondered about if there where any age restrictions for dragons, so I asked Twilight and she came up with nothing. So I asked her if I could, she agreed and I went out to buy some liquor. I wasn't asked my age or anything so I went about my business."

Stopping to drink some more he paused then thought about the night he and twilight got drunk together for the first time.

"Twi, I wanna tell them the story about the first time we drank together." He looked at her expectantly.

Twilight remembered how that night played out in an instant. It was the night that they too had shared an intimate moment, they didn't regret it. Intact they both were kind of glad that it happened, there had been a lot of tension between them and they both felt it. And the alcohol just fueled the tension to a breaking point.

"Hold on spike, before you tell that one, I think I need a little more beer." Twilight drank a fairly large amount from her glass. Both AJ and Rarity waited impatiently for what sounded like a juicy story, after twilight put her glass down and nodded.

"That night I returned home to find Twilight stressing about a spell she simply couldn't figure out."

"How long ago?" Rarity interrupted.

"About a year ago...?" He looked at twilight and she nodded.

"yeah, so when I saw her freaking out-"

"I was not freaking out!"

"You so were!"

"Yes, Ok I was." She smiled at the others.

They all giggle at how little she fought back, it's true that she gets into her little freak outs. After the big freak out they all learned not to ignore it anymore.

"Anyways, when I saw her I held my bottle out to her and told her to just take a break and let her brain relax. She took the bottle in her hooves ignoring that she could have easily picked it up with her magic."

"Oh Goddess, you did notice that!" She face-hooved.

"She looked at the bottle and uncapped it taking a few heavy swigs. I looked in surprise how much she could take without stopping. So I ran to the kitchen an got a glass for me and her, when I came back I saw she was breathing real hard. So, like genuinely concerned for her I walked up and looked up at her cuz she was on her chair and she looked back at me."

Twilight drank a little more from her glass, she was about half way done. AJ and Rarity looked at the Spike as he spoke with less and less confidence, it was obvious that the event that conspired only a year ago still made him feel a little uneasy. AJ was at the last few centimeters of booze and Rarity was at about 1/4 and really captivated in what spike had to say. Pinkie now with a quil and note pad that she pulled from nowhere was still trying to figure out her problem.

"Twilight was blushing slightly, and for some odd reason I grabbed the bottle from her table and did as she had. I let the burning booze creep down my throat, but to my surprise it didn't hurt as much as I thought it would. Twilight eyes widened when I didn't react to the burn. I removed the bottle from my lips and twilight kissed me."

"Whoa..." AJ said.

"Oh sweetie, you didn't...." Rarity said laughing.

"Yup, I did, Spike felt the tension between us and so did I. So not wanting to continue like that I just had to know. So I kissed him and he didn't pull back, he kissed me back and we made out on the couch."

"Aw, that Ain't too bad, so y'all made out a little no biggie." AJ spoke trying to reassure them.

Twilight looked at Spike who was no longer looking so relaxed, she just stared and picked up her beer drinking, not breaking eye contact.

"You're not finished are you?" Rarity asked. As she looked intently at Spike.

"Nope, after the make out session, we both realized how much we had drunk, and were pretty drunk. I mean honestly she drinks beer not liquor, and it had been the first time I had drank so I was smashed. So we laid on the couch and Twilight started rubbing me down and I got excited and did the same to her, not knowing what I was doing I licked her neck and...."

"AAAAHHHHH!" Twilight said out while topping her beer. "Pretty much me and Spike had sex that night. I blew him and he went down on me". twilight whiped her snout and spoke again. "It was good."

"Yeah, no regrets." He said extending his arm at twilight, while looking at the two other mares. Twilight bumped his claw with her hoof, while nodding all the meanwhile.

Rarity and Applejack just stared with their mouths open, questions going through their slightly inebriated minds. Twilight picked up the pitcher with her magic and filled her glass again smiling looking at her shocked friends. Spike was just rocking his head back in forth to the music playing in the background, he had returned to his previous nonchalant adittude.

"I dear say, you two sure are comfortable, being able to speak of such bedroom talk to your friends without a single wince." Rarity said expecting a reaction from the story they had just heard.

"Here Rare, have one of these." Spike reached into his coat pocket and pulled out a rectangular box. He opened it and pulled out a small white cylinder. He then handed it to her.

"A cigarette?" Rarity asked "Spikey thank you." She grabbed it with her magic and placed it in her mouth. Spike leaned close to her face, very closely as he were to kiss her right there and then. Rarity felt her face flush and wondered about what he was about to do. Spike inhaled a little and shot a short blue flame from his mouth lighting the cigarette in her mouth.

"Oh my..." She said shyly. Spike just smiled and winked making her feel even more shy. She giggled a little and inhaled the toxic smoke.

"Rarity that's a dirty habit, y'all shouldn't be smoking...alone." She signaled to spike to give her a cig and he threw her one, being an Earth pony Applejack had no problem catching it in her mouth.

"Light me, Spikes." AJ said as Rainbow and Fluttershy returned looked at everyone with a neutral faces and took thier seats....

Author's Note

Chapter End Notes:
End chapter. Ok I really like where this one is going, I gotta say I even shocked myself. More to come on the Aplple-Dash front, will AJ have the nerve to tell her friends? What about Rainbow and Fluttershy in the restroom. Are Twilight and Spike really confortable?Well ill be writing the beginning of the next chapter later tonight around 10 P.M. (California time) and finish a segment of it by 1 or so.

Confessions.

"Hey girls, how did it go?" Twilight looked expectantly at both pegasi. "Got teeth marks on your rump Dashie?" Dash expected her her wings to jump at the name but, they didn't. She looked over at AJ who looked just as confused, guess it only worked with her, she thought. She had seen the cigarette in her mouth and AJ inhaled the harsh smoke. Rainbow hated when she smoked without her.

"It was a bite to the ass nothing more." She replied taking an empty glass and filling it with the remaining beer of the pitcher. Fluttershy let out high pitched giggle and pressed her flushed face into her hooves covering her face, then she burst out laughing uncontrollably.

"Awe Shut up Fluttershy!" Dash said with annoyance. "Don't act as if you didn't like it." She replied. Dash just thought about what she went through, and drank more beer.

She wondered if any of them knew what a 'bite to the flank' was. She thought about it and quickly let the idea go.

"Of course they don't. They aren't from Cloudsdale, how in Tartarus would they?" She thought.

"A bite to the flank...damn you Fluttershy..." She didn't want to think that of her friend but she didn't like the fact that she had to do it.

With anothe drink she remembered how that 'code' got started. It was back in Cloudsdale in Flight School, filly-fooling was deemed a crime against the academy and immediate expulsion was the sentence. So the mares that were filly-fooler had to come up with ways to state certain sexual acts by code. Rainbow Dash picked up all the codes quickly, not wanting to waste any time.

Daring Wings.....Cloudsdale Special.....Nose Dive and land.....and of course Bite to the Flank. They all had thier meanings, but bite to the flank was her favorite. It simply meant a mare performing oral sex till she climaxes, and Rainbow made damn sure that Fluttershy came. Even though the act it self was against Dash nature to 'cheat' she knew she couldn't have backed out.

"Hghghfmmmhagn?" She heard a muffled sound and suddenly broke out of it.

"Do. You. Want. Me. To. Buy. The. Next. Round?" She looked at Rarity and nodded.

"Yeah thanks Rare." Dash said. Looking a little disturbed, getting out of the booth. Rarity looks back and asks. "Two pitchers?" They look at each other and nod. Rarity does the same and walks away. Other than Fluttershy, the others seen that this had bothered thier usually cool minded pegasus friend, so they dropped it.

"Anyways, any of you girls see any cute looking colts or stallions?" Twilight asked her mare friends. They look shockingly at her, this isn't like her at all. It had been obvious that the alcohol was lowering her inhibitions letting her have a bit more freedoms.

Fluttershy raises her hoof and nods. "Yeah, those two stallions at the pool table have been eyeing us the whole time." She points to the pool table and waves at them. "Come on Pinkie lets go play them a game." Fluttershy was a clear culprit of the freedom inducing poison. Everypony knew that she would never openly admit to wanting to interact with colts or stallions.

Pinkie looks up at Fluttershy and simply points at the pen on fire due to her constant writing. "That's ok Pinkie take your time." Fluttershy barely manages to squeal out. Pinkie then goes back to writing so fast that her hoof becomes a blur. The group laughs at the stressed Earth pony knowing well enough not to get involved.

"Well, I don't know about any stallions or colts but, I did notice a fine looking mare as soon as we walked in." Said Rainbow looking at her friends. AJ just shook her head and drank a bit more. "Oooh, really who is it?" Twilight looked amused as she spoke. "I can't say." She replied. "Don't say who it is Rainbow, it's not right." AJ looked with pleading eyes at her mare-lover as if to say 'I'm not ready please don't do it'.

"AJ's right I can't say it's too dirty for a mare to like another mare but I do think she is sexy and her mane..." The others looked at rainbow with genuine interest as she continued to speak. "Her mane is perfect, so full of color as well her coat so luscious and full of vitality. Her eyes just scream that she wants a release from her binds." Rarity looked at dash with a quizzical expression.

"Her binds?" Rarity asked. "What ever do you mean?" The others were confused by this as well. "Yes, I know she wants me, and I want her, I just want her to accept it." The others looked at Rainbow and waited for her to say something else, suddenly AJ spoke up. "She looks like she ain't ready, and who knows when she will be, give 'er some more time." AJ didn't look at her, she didn't have to; this hadn't been the first time this conversation had happened.

"Maybe she'll never be ready! Maybe she'll want to hide her feeling forever, maybe she just wants to hide cuz she only wants to play with her emotions!" Rainbow spoke in a hard yet calm voice. "She won't hide it forever Rainbow, she'll want to let her friends...uh 'you' know when she feels right an' ready!" The other mares have no idea what was going on, the slight arguement had thrown them off. It was obvious something was going on between these two but the others had no idea. AJ had taken another puff of the dying cigarette and put it out on the near by tray without taking her eyes off of dash.

Rainbow and AJ looked at each other with narrowed eyes and didnt give in an inch. AJ then blew a cute puff of smoke out of her nose.

"Huh these two are in love..." Spike thought to himself, he figured it out.

'Oh my goddess, she's so cute when she's angry....I just want to kiss her so badly!' Rainbow thought in her head not wanting to break her angry look, she continued to stare and spoke again. "she can only hope...." Dash said.

The group just looked on till the awkward silence was broken by the very cheery Pinkie Pie. "And that's how you live with caution without being to cautios! Hehehe!" Pinkie picked up th pen and note pad opened a hole in the air and threw the two objects in before sealing it back up. "Ok that's not physically possible..." Twilight exclaimed with no real interest. Everybody knew not to question her methods of life, it was just easier that way. Just let pinkie do her thing. AJ looking away now drank more of her diminishing beer, wiped her mouth and sighed. AJ is a strong pony but this lifestyle was still new to her, she didn't know how her friends would react to her life choice. More than anything she wanted to tell her friends but, she was afraid of the constant ridicule and disowning she would have to endure.

"Soooo...what was that about? Who's the mare?" Asked Raity returning with two full pitchers of beer. "You heard that from way out there?! AJ asked.

"Yes dear, we aren't as subtle as we would like to think, there are other patrons here as well." Rarity placed the tray of beer down on the table with her magic then took her seat.

"I guess it doesn't matter..." AJ said with a immediate regret. Dash widened her eyes and then looked away from her lover. Rainbow inhaled deeply, felt an invisible hand slap her on the face. The group remained silent for a time. Then again broken by the far too cheery party pony.

"Boring! C'mon Shy, lets go give those two colts a run for thier bits." Pinkie said nudging her on the side. Fluttershy looked over at the pool table and the two colts were still eyeing them slightly. Not being very sly or secretive one of the colts winked at her, inviting her to come and play.

"Ok, Pinkie let's have some fun. And thier bits." She said confidently. "Heeheehee! Ooooh drunk shy is party shy!" They both got up and Fluttershy wobbled for a second before regaining her composure. She giggled a drunken little giggle and blushed, fixed her mane slightly and began walking toward the two colts, Pinkie outright laughed and followed her drunk friend.

"She is simple adorable isn't she? So cute when shes drunk mmmh." Rarity said while looking at her walk away. The remaing looked at her with a widened smile, and cocked eye brows. Rarity looked back at the others and thought about what she just said. Now embarrassed she had to redeem herself.

"What? I can't admire the beauty of another mare without being acused of filly-fooling? I am a fashionista after all, and admiring the seductive curves of mare is simply part of the job."

"Rarity nopony said that..." Twilight tried to stifle a laugh as she spoke.

"But that does raise an interesting question, if you were who would you sleep with?" Rainbow asked this secretly hoping it was her, she always found Rarity attractive and wondered what what she would be like under the sheets. She'd been with many mares in the past but never her friends except Applejack.

"Twilight and Fluttershy!" Rarity blurted out. "Uh I mean Twilight uh...you did accuse me of being a fooler, didn't you?!" Rainbow and AJ just laughed, Twilight winked at her causing Rarity blush, she just looked around and picked up her beer drinking a little more.

"Jeez are we all still this uptight? We need shots damn it!" Spike said loudly. Hopping off his chair he walked to the bar.

"Dragon's right, yer too wound up Rare, let loose, give twilight a wink back don't let her take the situation. Or up the anti' like lickin' lips or sumthing'." Rarity looked at AJ for a sec not knowing what she meant. "I assume you want me to sedduce her?" Rarity asked. AJ and RD both gave a reassuring nod with very toothy grins. "I shall do no such thing!" Rarity said appalled. "Not till I've had more alcohol of course!" She said winking back at Twilight.

"Here, then drink this." Spike had returened with a mid-sized bottle of Jack-Stallions. Uncapping it with her magic, Rarity picked it up and drank about 2 gulps and gasped with relief. "Oh my...that's good. Thank you Spike." Spike gave her a smirk and nodded. "Don't think we're gonna need this last pitcher. I'm gonna see if I can sell it." Spike said looking around. "Oh don't worry about that Spikey-wikey. It was no cost..." She said winking at him. "You fox." He said back to her laughing. "Watch your flank now missy!" Rarity said smiling, it was all good fun.

Twilight smiled as well, and pointed at AJ and passed her the bottle."Your turn AppleJack, Who would be the lucky filly?"

"I reckon either, you Twi or possibly Fluttershy. She is cute after all." She said looking at Rarity. She then took the bottle and gave a few large gulps.

"How 'bout you Twi?" AJ asked passing the bottle back.

"Rainbow Dash, definitely Rainbow Dash..." She said looking at dash. "Awe thanks Twilight." Rainbow said, Twilight nodded and continued to speak. "Then Fluttershy, I'd like to give her a 'bite to the flank' if you know what I mean." She said looking at dash. Her eyes went wide. 'Does Twilight know what that means'. She looked at Twilight, Twilight nodded as if to say 'yeah I know what you did to her'. She gave a wicked smile picked up the bottle and drank 3 full gulps. The others began to wonder if Twilight was a fooler, she was being a bit open with her sexuality, then again they hadn't really known her sexual orientation from the start.

"Hehe...yeah I wonder if she knows we all want to fuck her?" Dash said

"So that means you too then?" AJ asked, Rainbow dash nodded. "Wow we all got the hots for Fluttershy....anypony wonder why?"

"Tsh, cuz she's cute as fuck." Said Spike honestly enough. He had placed another cigarette in his mouth it was unlit. Everypony looked at spike with shock. "And I think it's her shy/timidness that makes her that much more cute. Anyway, who's turn is it?" He then with the corner of his mouth shot a flame to the tip of his cig.

"Wow, Spikes yer not the little dragon I remember. All grown up checking out the mares, smoking and drinking...fucking..." Spike just inhaled more of the smoke deep into his lungs and closed his eyes as he leaned back against the wall in his chair, then exhaled. "That's life." He said way too cool. "Rainbow your turn right?"

"Uh, yeah...well um...Jackie, Twilight, Fluttershy and Rarity." She spoke out still looking at Spikes closed eyes.

"Who's Jackie rainbow?" Asked twilight. As she passed the bottle yet again. "Jackie..jack...uh Applejack." She said said as she pointed her hoof at AJ. "Jackie, that sounds like a pet name...you her pet AJ?" Twilight said. Dash just snickered and took the bottle in her hoof and looked at every one. Getting and angry look in her face she looked down at Applejack thinking 'I can't even call you Jackie' this is crap.

"Now? Jackie..." She looked at AJ with what seemed to be burning eyes. AJ just sighed and shook her head.

"Come on it doesn't matter, why is this bugging you so much? After everybody here just admitted to wanna sleep with another mare?" Rainbow was getting very annoyed and her voice was becoming darker. "Ah don't care Rainbow, I said no and you will respect my wishes! And all drunken hooey anyhow!"

"Guys what's going on? This has been bugging me what's happening?" Twilight looked concerned for her friends.

"Nothing's going on right Jackie?" Asked rainbow in a very condescending tone.

"That's right! Ain't a damn thing happening here!" She yelled at dash.

"Why can't you do it? Are you ashamed?!" Dash yelled back

"I said not now Rainbow!"

"Why? Now's the best time than any!"

"Leave it alone Rainbow!"

"C'mon, they don't care!"

"No, it's not them, it's you, you don't care!"

"I do care, that's why I'm trying to make this happen."

"I'm done talking about this Dash."

Rainbow now looking pissed, put the bottle up to her lips and took four to five gulps. She then put the bottle down and sighed lightly.

Rainbow stood up and put her face close to her lovers. "Buck that. You are ashamed." Rainbow spoke calmly but fiercely. "Ashamed of what you are, ashamed of what ponys think! That's just sad, you should feel bad just for thinking of that! Be proud of who you are!"

Twilight just pressed her lips to a line and Rarity arched her brow signaling that she felt the pain of the statement she just heard.. They had no idea what was going on, but were damn sure they were going to find out soon. Spike just continued to smoke.

AJ didn't look at dash she just lowered her head then her Stetson, Rainbow felt a sudden impact on her chest, it wasn't painful but it has strong enough to knock her back a few hooves. Applejack got up and out of the booth then she ran for the exit trying very hard to cover her face with her hat. But in the very instant she turned to run away Twilight saw tears running down her cheeks and her lip quivering. Applejack hated when ponys saw her cry, it wasn't like her, she lamented the thought alone.

Twilight, Spike, Rarity and Rainbow all saw her run out of the bar in a hurry. Not wanting to be seen by anypony that she was crying she held in as much as she possibly could. Pinkie looked at the escaping pony and looked back to their booth, with her hooves raised to her sides. Twilight just shook her head in response to the events that had just played out. Fluttershy on the other hand was in an awkward position exposing her backside about to make her shot. Twilight shook her hoof signaling to Pinkie to return to the booth. Pinkie rubbed the sides of her hooves signaling back that they had bits on the game at hoof. Twilight nodded and looked at Fluttershy's exposed flank coming out of her hot pants and opened her mouth, she couldn't believe the sight.

Rarity could only wonder what any of this meant, spike on the other hand only opened one eye as he saw the fleeing filly, not braking his cool façade. Twilight looked back at Dash and spoke with a bite, remembering what had just happened.

"Rainbow Dash, that was really mean! Why did you tell her those things!"

"Don't worry about it Twilight, just drop it."

"I will not, what does she have to be ashamed about, AppleJack is a great pony, you had no right talking to her that way. You made her cry and leave the bar, your words really hurt her."

"Out of respect for yourself, I suggest you drop it."

Twilight felt a little threatened by dash at that moment, but she wasn't about to let this go. Dash lifted her hooves and placed them on the recliner exposing her chest. She had a scowl on her face and simply looked away. Twilight looked at dash and sighed, she didn't want to get into a fight with her friend, but she didn't want to let the subject go. Rarity looked a little worried now, thinking that her two friends were about to engade in a fight.

"Now...uh Twilight dearest, if Rainbow says to 'drop the subject' as it were then you must respect her wishes." Expecting a harsh response Rarity winced a little. Twilight was just staring at Dash with a hurricane of thoughts going threw her head.

"I'll be back." Spike said hopping off of his chair. "Leave her alone spike." Dash warned. He didn't look back, he just continued to walk not wobbling or loosing his composure.

Spike walked out of sight to the other side of the bar, not knowing what he was up to they just retured to the silence. Suddenly Rainbow thought about something to change the subject. She retured a devious smile to twilight, and began to show her teeth. Twilight now a little confused didnt want to break eye contact but was loosing her tough exterior.

Finally letting go of her hard look, she just sighed and down at the table. "What rainbow?" Twilight said defeated. "You know all this talk of bites to the flank and wanting to fuck Fluttershy, it donned on me that you aren't a virgin anymore. Virgins wouldn't be able to talk about all this without having to stutter or wince at certain words. You haven't done any of that."

"What are you getting at?" Twilight asked irritated. "Yes, dear what are you talking about?" Rarity interjected.

"When was you first time Twilight?" Dash asked happily.

"Dear me, Rainbow Dash you don't just ask outright!" Rarity intercepted.

"Well, it was a year ago." Twilight answered. "With spike." Dash's smile grew even bigger. "I thought he was your brother?" Dash replied. "Yes, dear this has also been plaguing me as well, if he is your brother wouldn't it be an incestuous act to fuck him?" The very instant the word left her mouth she gasped and put her hoof up to her mouth and peeled her eyes looking back and forth at twilight and Dash.

Twilight giggled at her politeness while Rainbow laughed outright, now blushing a drunken blush, Rarity covered her face.

"Wow Rare, I knew you had it in you I just didn't know that you were so bold." Dash said passing her the bottle of Jack-Satllions. Rarity put her hooves down and pushed the bottle back politely. "I'm quite fine now dear, thank you." Twilight took the bottle and placed it in the center. Twilight then remembered what AJ had said a few minutes ago, and for her sake she was going to get some revenge.

"A game, I'm gonna get you so bucked up, that you aren't gonna wanna drink for the rest of the night." Twilight was only looking at dash now. Dash's eyes beemed with light as she heard her friend speak these last words.

"A game huh? A drinking game I think you mean Twi." Dash corrected. "Yeah Ill play that game. What's the catch?"

"You have to take a shot if person names a pony that you have slept with, take a second shot if they name a sexual act you preformed and a third if they name the location you committed the act, however you can back the shot to the person asking if they've ever had a complete fantasy about some one."

Half witting her eyes and smiling softly, Rainbow dash was very pleased with her friends new demeanor, this wasn't Twilight at all. What had happened to this book worm, this egg-head, this all of the sudden party goer in the years they spent apart?

"Oh my dear sweet goddess, Twilight what a horrendous game!" Rarity spoke out loud. "I shall have none of this."

"Oh no if I'm not playing if Ms.Manners isn't playing." Dash spoke out loud as she pointed at the fashionista.

Twilight then turned to Rarity and bugged her eyes out, glistening light shining off of the huge black sausers, her lip quivering completing the sad look. Rarity thought that she looked absolutely stunning in her outfit, her hair was perfect her bomber jacket hugging her skin tightly and her horn was polished enough to reflect light.

"Oh fine! For you twilight!" She said irritated and slightly amused. Twilight let out an audible squee of delight and turned back to dash waving her eyebrows. Dash couldn't help but let out a small giggle and shook her head. "You are too cute you know that?" Dash said.

"I know, but look we can't use anything that we know about each other prior to now. That means nothing about Spike or any acts we preformed, or the library where it happened....or who came..." She looked down as she said that last statement and continued. "Oh me wanting to fuck Fluttershy doesn't count either."

"Oh ohhh my..." Fluttershy said right behind twilight. Fluttershy and Pinkie pie had been listening since she had started to explain the rules. Dash and Rarity had both seen them coming but in secret decided not to tell Twilight. Pinkie giggled harshly at the statement she just heard, Rainbow smiled and simply shook her head as she could not believe how well that turned out. Rarity lost every trace of 'lady-like' as she put her head on the table meanwhile laughing maniacally into her arms. Fluttershy was way hammered, she just giggled and sat drunkenly next to Twilight and hick-upped.

"Is that -hick- true Twilight? Do wanna wanna fuck me baby?" Fluttershy ran her hoof along the back of Twilight's head as she spoke leading up to her chin. For unknown reasons this gesture sent chills down into her body, resonating deep between her legs. She was frozen, her body tensed her stomach taut her fur standing on end. A deep primal feeling coursed though her, her eyes dilated and her breathing slowed.

"Yes..." Twilight said weakly. "Yes I do."

Fluttershy leaned in and wrapped her hooves around Twilight's neck, she pulled her in slowly and pressed her soft supple lips against Twilight's, closing her eyes and moaning all the meanwhile. Twilight was stiff at first but gave in to the kiss, she reached up and placed her hoof on Fluttershy's back and the other one behind her head. Embracing the hug and kiss Twilight moaned softly into the mouth of the other filly; wanting to continue she began to rub Fluttershy's back. The lavender unicorn was in ecstasy, she felt Fluttershy's wet tongue lick her lips, signaling her to open her mouth to which she obliged. Her tounge was slick, wet and warm, she wanted more, she moaned loudly and whimpered showing signs that she was definitely enjoying the kiss. The world around them had gone dark, nothing else mattered in this moment, nothing could ruin this moment.

The two fillys kissed softer and lighter till they finally broke apart. Twilight kept her eyes closed enjoying the blissful radiance a bit longer knowing she would have to face her friends eventually. Fluttershy just panted and kept tongue out not knowing she just put on an entire show for her friends. Little to any of thier knowledge Spike had returened in the midst of all the tongue action but, he did not dare break this moment from his sister. He had only been there for a few seconds but smiled at to what he had walks in on. 'Nice' he said under his breath.

Finally twilight opened her eyes to look at Fluttershy, she looked back with rosy cheeks.

"Yes, I definitely do." The Rarity looked in amazement, while Dash just looked away trying to hide her face. Pinkie was trying desperately not to rub herself, in turn she just rubbed her thighs together very subtlety.

AJ ran out of the bar holding as much in as she possibly could, until she reached a group of trees that were a bit away from the bar but still in sight. Running and crashing into the tree AJ finally let it all go. Her eye sight being covered by constant tears made her feel more vulnerable. Leaning up against the tree and planting her haunches on the ground she began to cry even harder.

'Why did she attack me like that?'

'Doesnt she see how much she is hurtin' me?'

'Goddess I love 'er but she hurts meh so bad'

'Oh dear Celestia how I love her!'

"Why am ah so weak, ah really do love her but, why is she so bad to meh?" AJ was now shaking, her entire body shot up with nerves, it made her shudder. Being more than a little buzzed, AppleJack reached into her jacket and pulled out a box of cigarettes of her own. She flipped opened the small box with her shaking hoof and slid one out letting it rest on the bottom of her hoof. Trying to aim the white cylinder to her mouth AJ's shaking proved to be too much as it tumbled to the ground. Looking down at the cigarette AJ just covered her face, sobbing softer now.

The night was cold and clouds had begun to appear, they looked angry, black, large and closing in on PonyVille. Not wanting to fight her shaking fit she simply took a cigarette with her mouth directly from her box. Placing it back inside her jacket pocket, a thought ran through her head.

"Oh...dang it...Dash has my lighter..." She thought to herself. "This...just isn't mah night." She kept the cigarette in her in her mouth still letting the tears trickle down her face. Suddenly she heard a voice in front of her.

"You're in love with her." Said the voice. "She loves you too."

Not looking up she knew who's voice it was, her Stetson was covering her face. Spike stopped a foot away from her. He inhaled again, and let the smoke out through his nose.

"I'm not in the mood Spike, if ya don't mind Ah don't feel much for talkin' about it."

"Good, then just listen." He lifted her face with his knuckles not wanting to cut her with his sharp claws that had grown exponentially. He saw her red teary eyes and lost his composure for a quick second, and looked away. He hated seeing fillys this way, to many times has Twilight come home crying her eyes out because of some asshole or bitch had broken her heart, shaking the thought he sighed, looking at the unlit cig still resting in between her lips.

"Need a light?" He asked. "Mhmm" she barely managed to whimper. Spike pursed his lips and a single flame came out lighting the stick. AJ inhaled the smoke deep into her lungs and enjoyed the burning sensation of the fire now enveloping her within.

"I love her spike." She said releasing the smoke as she spoke. "I know, it was obvious." He said inhaling more smoke. AJ looked up from her slumped posture and looked at him. He was shaking his open claw at her as he inhaled, once he was done he threw the cig down and stomped it.

"Don't worry Jack, no one else picked up on it." He said. "It don't bother ya none that me an' Rainbow are filly-foolers?" He didn't answer instead he reached into the back pocket of his cargo pants and pulled out a silver flask. He uncapped it and held it out to her. "Drink." He said in more of a commanding voice. "Ah don't think that's a good ahdia, I mean look at meh, I'm a wreck spike." Spike understood what she meant and brought the flask up to his mouth and took a few good gulps. Whiling his mouth he spoke again. "Twilight's bi, and she's my sister. Why would it bother me if you are happy with Dash?.....You are happy right?" AJ nodded. "But she hurt you tonight..." She nodded again in agreement. "She just wants y'all to know about us but ah...ahm not ready, ahm so scared of the outcome Spike."

"Fuck it." He said out loud, AJ looked at him with her sad eyes not knowing what he meant by that statement. "Fuck what?" She replied. "Fuck your inhibitions, if she can't get that you aren't ready then just do what you 'really' want." He held out the flask and shook it willingly. "You know if ah take that Spike you ain't gettn' any back, right?" Spike side smiled and nodded.

"That's the idea babe." He said very casually. "When d'ja get so cool Spikes?" AJ asked with a genuine curiosity. AJ took the flask in both hooves and looked at it.

"A story for another time." He replied. "Bottoms up."

AJ took a quick swig sampling the toxic smelling liquid hidden inside the silver container. It tasted the same as the booze he had in the library, she didn't particularly like it, but she couldn't really care at this point. She stared at Spike for a moment and walked up to him.

"Why, you doin' this Spike?" She asked just inches from his face, she had to look up due to his new height. A sudden drop of water hit her nose, she ignored it knowing it was just the rain rolling in. "Don't worry about it AJ. It's not important what I get out of it...nothing at this point." AJ smiled with tears still blurring her sight slightly. "Spike, before ah become a drunken idjit ah wanna let you know that if there's anythin' ah can do for you about Rar-" Spike pushed his claw out quickly putting it on her snout closing her mouth effectively. The cigarette dropping fom her lips hitting the ground unnoticed. He leaned in lowering his head so that she could see the large slits in his eyes, his vibrant emerald eyes looking deep into her soul.

For some reason AJ felt a little frightened, yet safe like if he was protecting her from something, he brought his other claw up to his mouth putting one finger on his lips. "Shh, I don't want to talk about her." The flask had been tossed in her reaction to the claw in the face, luckily Spike had caught it with his tail, letting go of her snout he grabbed the flask from his tail and handed it to AJ again.

AJ grabbed it again without hesitation and put it up to her lips gulping the intoxicant down without a second thought.

Drop.

Drop....drop..

Drop..drop..drop..drop.

It had begun raining, AJ didn't care she continued to drink it all down, spike had another cig in his hand already lit. He inhaled it and passed it out again, he watched as AJ's lips hungrily sucked down the last bit of alcohol.

"Ahhhgg, oh...mah sweet goddess...it burns..." She said panting out loud. "Well....ah don't feel any different Spike..." Spike put his claw with the cig up to his mouth, the cherry grew bright as he inhaled. "Give it a sec." He said, then exhaled. The rain was coming down a bit harder now, spike didnt care but AJ showed obvious signs of discomfort.

"Let's go to the balcony." He insisted. "Ok....Spike..." She said slowly. Spike got next to her and placed his arm around around the now drunk filly. The walk over back to the bar was a short one, with AJ wobbling side to side they finally reached the stairs to go up but it was closed off by a bouncer. He was a big pony dark brown earth pony with two locks as a cutie mark.

They approached him slowly and he looked at spike and AJ. "How many to get to the balcony?" Spike asked the bruiser. "You're not gonna touch her up there are you?" He asked in a deep voice.

"No she just needs a place to rest. And talk about her problems." Spike said gingerly. The pony could easily knock him out, so he didn't want to get on his bad side. "Ah dunt have problems...but ah do got 'one fucker' of a problem." Spike nodded and pointed to AJ as she spoke to the bouncer, he showed his teeth in a weak smile.

The bouncer nodded and lifted his hoof. "That's eight bits then." Spike nodded and dug his claw into his pocket pulling out a few bits. "One, two, three...four- you know just keep em." He put the bits into a bucket the bouncer had next to him. It was more than enough clearly, so the bouncer stepped aside. Spike walked aside and let AJ go first, he knew she was getting to the point were she may not be able to walk. "You know what? I'm just gonna carry you up there." AJ and the bouncer looked at spike with a confused look.

"Ah get that ya tryin'na help meh....but ah don't...think ya can-" that instant spike lifted her by the stomach and began walking up the stairs. "Oh why ah never..." She said under her breath surprised. Once at the top Spike let her down making sure she could stand. Spreading her legs in every direction, AJ stood and leaned side to side. It was obvious to spike that the alcohol had taken effect.

"Spike, you saw everything..." The water works began again. "Why did she do that? Ah love her Spike! I'd to anything for that mare, and yet she doesn't seem to care 'bout mah feelin's at all!"

Spike now sitting in on a chair nodded and inhaled more smoke. He knew she had to vent and now was the time. "Listen babe, I get that she hurt you, why do think that is?"

"Cuz ahm a fuckin' coward! Ahm not brave like she is..." AJ whimpered and began to sob again. "Ah wanna be strong like her...but ah ain't, ah know that even of they did accept me, things would be different." AJ looked away and walked away from the smoking dragon to the edge, she placed her hooves on the ledge and looked into the night sky.

" Ahm gonna tell 'em Spike, and tonight Ahm gonna fuck her till she knocks out."

"More than I needed to know AJ." He said softly. "But yeah you are lucky."

"Lemme guess, you wanna stick it to her?" She asked turning back to look at him. Spike nodded and pulled another two cigs out, he extended his arm seeing if she wanted one. Jumping off the ledge she walked at great struggle toward him, spike lit the two easy and handed her one.

"To be honest, I've wanted to 'stick it to all of you' at one point. In reality I've had a fantasy of every mare in PonyVille and frankly I've had a few here an there after Twilight." He inhaled closing his eyes welcoming the smoke deep into his lungs. "Even you AJ." Applejack continued to look at him as best as her eyesight would allow her to.

"Yall wanted to sleep with me spike?" He nodded again. "Yup, you're hot AJ, I don't see why I wouldn't. Sept, you're with Rainbow and I'm not in the business of cheating." She too inhaled the toxin and smiled. "Ah dunno what tah say Spike, ah think ahm flattered."

"Don't mention it, anyways we are here about rainbow." She stood in front of him and stared. "No AppleJack." He said sternly. Her eyes began to tear and she looked down and grit her teeth, while now sobbing audibly. AJ let go yet again, she was crying loudly now not caring who heard her, luckily the balcony was empty so no one noticed, the rain sounded hard as it crashed down to the earth. "OH MY GAWDESS! I LOVE HER!" Spike got up and hugged her tightly letting a few tear of his own trickle down his cheeks. She embraced him hard, the hugs eyed a few moments till they both let go. "I'll see you inside. Just be ready..." He then began to walk down the stairs into the cascading water, his cig fizzled out in the process. He walked down the stairs with ease, then the seconds set down the cellar to the bar. He pushed the door open to the bar and walked inside the warm atmosphere. He looked at the booth and saw that his sister and Fluttershy were sharing a mouth. As he approached he just took his seat and lit another cigarette. Not wanting to ruin the moment that his, very horny sister needed.

"Rainbow you're not liking this? I thought this would get you going for sure." Pinkie asked. Rainbow didnt answer because she wasn't looking at the kissing deviants, she was grabbing the bottle that was now more than half way done. Twilight and Fluttershy looked at each other, not knowing what to do next.

"Yes, I definitely do." Twilight said. "Well, I'm not one for fooling but that kiss has gotten me a little riled!" Raity admitted. "Wow, Rare are you sure you don't like mares?" Pinkie asked. "Well I.." Rarity began as she looked at Rainbow and stopped, everypony looked at her as well.

Rainbow placed the bottle down gasping for air, the bottle was done, not a drop left. Shakily she put a cigarette into her mouth and lit it with her eyes closed, she inhaled lightly and rocked her head quickly up and down. The group noticed this even spike who knew what was about to happen. Rainbow took the cig out and put it out in her glass, a single tear emerging from her closed eye, suddenly the others got serious. Rainbow never crys and when she does it's a big deal.

"Rainbow are you-" rainbow bolted up wings caring her above the other patrons and she made for the door seeking the warm embrace of her lover.

Author's Note

Alright my little bronys! End chapter, I was initially gonna make this chapter a lot longer but all the stuff that happens in the next would take up this chapter making it way too long.

Realizations.

Dash darted toward the door of the bar effectively slamming into it, Dash shook her head and landed on the ground wobbling on her hooves. Everypony was alerted by the sudden crash, Dash didn't care, she wanted to see her lover and apologize for being a foal. Her friends chased after her, even spike had to know what was about to conspire, his talk with AJ had left her an emotional wreck. Dash bucked the door open with her hoof and flew out of the bar and into the night. The rain smacked her in her drunken face, it was cold and stung slightly on her open wings. The alcohol numbed the pain only slightly, but her determination was stronger.

"Jackie!....Jackie where are you I'm sorry!" Dash yelled into the night as tears flowed down her face. Dash flew into the abysmal darkness and yelled again seeking her lover. The ponys came out of the bar into the cold wet night looking for Dash, but she was gone. "Dash!" Twilight yelled out into the darkness hoping for a response, yet to no avail she yelled again. "Dash where are you, it's not safe to fly in the rain!" Fluttershy interjected. "And she's drunk." "And your drunk!" Twilight repeated in a louder tone.

"Oh dear me, this rain will not do for my outfit, if you need...-hic-.... me I'll be in the balcony." Rarity said unsure of herself. As she began to walk up the stairs she was stopped by a sobbing pony. "AppleJack! Oh my dearest pony there you are!" Rarity hugged the earth pony nearly stumbling on her own drunkenness. "It's clear ta....me...that we all...a little drunk." AJ said in a slurred speech. "Well, yes as a matter of fact, how did you get drunk you weren't even in-" "Rarity! We're looking for Rainbow remember!" Twilight reminded her.

"Oh no.... Dash's gone?! Where did she go?" Applejack asked in a very worried voice. "We don't know, but she was calling out to you, didn't you hear her?" Twilight also got on the balcony stairs to avoid the down pour. AJ shook her head and looked down. "Ah heard somepony shoutn' but ah couldn't recall who it was."

Now all on the balcony top, they looked on hoping to catch sight of the distressed pegasus. Rainbow could not see very far ahead of her snout, the rain was coming down too hard. To make matters worse the moon was being covered by a mob of angry storm clouds so it's radiance was not seen. Rainbow got a sick pain in her stomach, she knew she might have waited too much. Suddenly a flash of light illuminated the earth below, only to be swallowed by the darkness again.

-CRACK-

"AAAAH!" Rainbow screamed in fear of the booming noise, she shook her head and narrowed her eyes. "No! I'm not going out like this! Not till I see her again!" Rainbow was shouting at no pony in particular, she didn't even know why she was shouting. The fear of not seeing her Jackie again began to overcome her. "Oh goddess...What if she doesn't wanna see me?" Feelings of dread began to slowly inch over her body, she tried very hard not to stop flapping her wings. Her emotions were getting the better of her, making maneuvering extremely difficult.

Dash was heading to Sweet Apple Acres, it was a short fly from the bar but with the heavy down pour it just as strenuous as flying from Zecora's hut to Fluttershy's cottage in one go. "This is the only place that she could possibly be..."Another flash of lightning struck the earth much closer to Rainbow Dash testing her resolve, but she didn't wince in the least. She needed to get to her destination now. The barn was in sight only a few hooves away, Dash's heart was beating far faster than she could remember. With panic and physical effort fueling her, her adrenaline was skyrocketed to new heights. Landing near the house and panting like a mad-pony she remembered that AJ's room was in the back of the house. She flew up again and went around the house to the second story window were her bedroom resides.

'Tap-tap' Dash tapped the window gingerly not wanting to wake anypony up other than AppleJack. "Jackie..." Rainbow whispered harshly. "Jackie are you in there...Please answer me..." Rainbows voice was cracking at nearly every word. She felt the heartache deep within her core, it was odd she had only felt heart ache with her parents all those years ago.

"Applejack...please I'm so sorry...I was wrong." She continued to cry unsure of what would would happen next. Rainbow heard some rustling in the bedroom on the other side of the window. "Hay, who's there?" Said a familiar voice. "It's me Rainbow Dash." The window rose open to reveal a very sleepy looking AppleBloom, eyes puffed and mane a mess. "What'er you doin' here Rainbow Dash, ah thought you were with mah sister." AppleBloom asked whilst yawning into her hoof. The sudden realization had occurred without having to ask, AppleJack wasn't here. AB looked at the soaking wet pony flying in place and noticed her eyes were red and her nose was a slight rosy color from crying all the way there.

It was obvious to AppleBloom that she had been crying and that she still had tears in her eyes and cheeks. "Rainbow are you ok? Y'all look like ya been cryin'." Even though it is raining some how AppleBloom could tell the difference in tears on her face and the rain on her face. "Did y'all get into a faight?" Dash didnt respond she simply shook her head and flew up and away from the house leaving her trail behind her.

"Ah hope those two fix their problem, cuz a teary eyed Applejack isn't a purty one." She closed the window and jumped back on AJ's bed.

Dash flew back to the bar with great speed, she couldn't live another second with her. The rain wouldn't let up and the lightning kept striking the wet ground with loud cracks that roared seconds after the illuminated bolt. Making amazing time she was now in front of the bar hovering only a few hooves off the ground when she noticed her friends up in the balcony with AppleJack.

Nope not caring if she was mad at her Dash yelled out her name as loud as her lungs allowed her. "Jackie! I'm so-"

-CRACK-

Rainbow was struck to the ground, being thrown a few yards away from the bar, tumbling and rolling like a rag doll before coming to a complete stop. The others looked in horror as the smoldering Pegasus pony lay still, lifeless and covered in mud. "Dash!" They all yelled out simultaneously, with a stumbling fit they all made it down to the ground floor rushing toward the downed pony. "Oh please my goddess no!" AJ shouted as she tried her damnedest to gallop to her lover. Splashing through puddled after puddle of mud AJ finally reached Dash, the others stayed back as the sobbing pony could only repeat the same words.

"Please no!"
"Please no."
"Please no..."

Dash was facing the other way from her friends lying perfectly still with smoke emerging from her clothes and fur. The ponys sobbed openly as AJ ran around to see her face, Dash's eyes were closed, her body not moving an inch. AJ checked Dash's nose for breathing, there was none, she checked her pulse with her shaky hoof, there was none, the others could only watch and feel the sudden realization that their rainbow maned friend might be dead.

No signs of movement.

No signs of breathing.

No pulse.

No signs of life.

Rainbow Dash was dead.

"She ain't breathin',......and...her heart....she...she...can't be dead! Twi! Zap her!" AJ commanded. "Zap her Twilight, start her heart again Ah know you can." Twilight looked at the fallen pony then back at AJ and then to Fluttershy. Being the drunkest at the moment Fluttershy suddenly narrowed her eyes and began to talk. "We can do it!" She said in her raspy voice when she was being dominant. "Rainbows counting on us."Twilight wiped her tears away, got close and lit her horn to a bright transparent purple she enveloped Dash in a magical aura and picked her up, walking backward and turning around she levitated the pegasus on the balcony floor out of the rain.

The others followed up the balcony to meet her and dry her off. AJ rushed up the stairs and focused as hard as she possibly could, with alcohol running through the equine, she was still very drunk and wobbly. After drying her off, and removing her jacket and shirt, Fluttershy very drunkenly spoke giving very specific instructions on how to revive. The others didn't deny her, her abilities to heal the wounded were only matched by medical trained ponys.

"Now girls...I need you to listen, this is very important and I need you all to pay very close attention.....-hick-....." She turned to Pinkie who's mane was now flat, though the others didn't know if it was the rain or the sadness that has crawled over all of them. Although it wasn't entirely to suggest that is was both since she crooked her lip outward. "Pinkie I need you to elevate her head on your hooves. She needs to breathe in...-hic-...properly i-...when she wakes up." Fluttershy hadn't been crying but, a dark aura consumed her and finally after the drunkenness could not help her she began to loose her assertiveness.

It's true that most medical ponys such as doctors and nurses will not loose their composure after a while of being near death for so long. This may be true, but when her only pegasus friend; that helped her in flight school, stood up to bullies when she was too shy to even show her face, is about to leave her forever, she simply couldn't hold it in.

Pinkie gave a slow nod and looked back at Rainbow's body crying quietly. She then looked at Spike who was on his knees in front of Rainbow just looking down at her. "Spike, I need you...to keep her warm." She said to him. "Ok....I ..will...." He spoke very breathily, his voice cracking and looking next to him to AppleJack. "I'm sorry Jackie..." He said softly. Applejack just looked at him and frowned. "I need somepony....to breathe air into....her lungs and pump her chest...-hic-" Fluttershy looked at AJ and pointed her hoof. "Can you do that AJ?" Fluttershy waited for her to respond but, she just moved on knowing AJ didn't need confirmation. "Twilight, when...I say so you need...-hic-...shock her chest...with a powerful bolt." Twilight gained her morale back and nodded confidently. Seeing her unicorn friend gain her stability, Fluttershy too perked up a bit. "Rarity I'm...-hic-...gonna need you to hold her down. The shock will make her jump, and if you don't hold...-hic-...her down she will hurt herself."

"Hm!" Rarity said as she nodded in confidence. Fluttershy sighed. Ready for the impossible to happen she spoke again.

"First hold...her down."
"Second shock her...-hic-...heart."
"Third, Aj I need you to breathe air into her lungs, then...-hic-...compress her chest three times. Once I yell 'clear' you move and I will check her pulse."
"Spike I need you to blow fire over her when I say so."

"Do We Understand!" She shouted. They all nodded in agreement.

"Rarity, Hold her down..., Spike fire." Instantly Spike blew a green blast of fire above the group of mares warming them slightly before putting it out by 'Shy' touching his shoulder.

"Twilight, now!" Twilight aimed her horn down at the dead ponys chest.

Bzzztrt!

The sudden shock to the body made the prism pony jump and arch her body in a very suggestive manner. Rarity held her strongly and made sure that she stayed put.

"AJ now!" AJ wanted desperately to plant her lips on her lover, but not like this. She wanted her to kiss back and want to kiss her lips; not to be forced. AJ complied and placed her hooves on Dash's snout and opened her mouth placing her own lips around Rainbows. Inhaling deeply through he nose and releasing out of her mouth into Dash's oxygen starved lungs, Applejack felt like if she was breathing out her very soul into Rainbow Dash's lifeless body. Pinkie kept stroking the mane of her dear friend hoping to Celestia that she would rise, praying it was one of Rainbow's harder pranks.

Releasing her lips from her lover, AJ placed her hooves over Dash's chest and began to pump down hard. The mares could only watch in anticipation as the last pump ended.

"-hic- Clear!...." Fluttershy said as AJ moved away. "Fire!" Fluttershy screamed taking control of her drunkenness. Another burst of flames illuminated the darkened balcony, Spike held the flame for about 10 seconds before Fluttershy tapped him.

"Checking for pulse..." She said out loud. Fluttershy placed her ear up to Dash chest and listened. She rose up and shook her head, the others prepared to repeat the process.

"Twilight, again!" Shy demanded. . . .

"Huh....where am I?....What happened?"

"You are dead my my dear subject." A voice said.

"What?! How can that be?!"

"You don't remember?" The voice replied

"I...was looking for Jackie...and I saw my friends on a balcony....

"As we speak they are trying to revive you."

"Um, who are you, and why do I feel happy?"

"This place supersedes any and all pleasures of the mortal realm." The voice said calmly.

"OK that explains why, but who are you."

"Do not worry about who I am."

Dash thought for a second. Thinking about how she died and why she was in the open in the first place. Then she spoke again.

"So that's it for me huh? That's how I end?"

"No, you will return to Equestria, but you will have learned to care for your friends and lover Appellina.

"That's not her name...it's Applejack."

"That's not her name yet, Iris."

"Who's Iris."

The hazy white pagasus with glowing blue eyes shook her head and smiled.

"I will heal your burned body and broken bones, but the scars will be a reminder. A reminder that your friends are just as important as your lover. Do not neglect them Iris."

"Good bye my subject, and remember that your friends are just as important."

"OH MERCIFUL GODDESS PLEASE DON'T TAKE HER FROM ME!!!" AJ wailed in agony, tears reemerging from her eyes. The last three attempts to revive the pony had failed. All crying eyes were on AppleJack who continued to press the chest of the pegasus. "Come on baby please don't do this to meh!" Shaking their heads in disbelief and letting their emotions out they simply gave up, Rainbow Dash the pegasus pony from Cloudsdale was dead.

"Y'all can give up! But Ah ain't!" She then pressed her lips against the prism pony and blew in air, suddenly Rainbows eyes slowly cracked open realizing that AJ was kissing her. Rainbow lifted her bruised arms and wrapped them around her filly, hugging her tightly and kissing her back, digging her tongue into AJ's viciously attacking her lovers tongue with her own. AJ didn't back away, she didn't know if it was an irrational hallucination or if her mind had cracked. She didn't care she would live in this fantasy forever if it meant she could be with true love.

It wasn't a fantasy, the other looked in shock as the two lovers made out right before their eyes. They couldn't believe what they were seeing, rainbow had come back to life and was locking lips with the Straightest pony they knew.

"She's alive! Best revive ever!" Pinkie wailed.

"Oh thank the goddess, and you Fluttershy!" Rarity said with relief.

Fluttershy simply smiled and blushed then hiccuped again.

"And Twilight and Rarity!" Spike said getting up lighting another cigarette and inhaling deeply.

"...Oh, I get it..." Twilight said. "Now I feel foalish!" Twilight looked at the others and they had blank stares as they looked back, as if to say duh! The two mares broke the kiss, AJ was just mere inches from her face and spoke in a shaky broken voice.

"Ah thought Ah lost ya forever Dash." She said looking down at Rainbow.

"What are you talking about?" She replied.

"You were struck by lightning Dash, your...your heart stopped..." Twilight said.

"I died?!" Dash said suddenly feeling cold.

Rainbow suddenly realized that she was bare chested and covered herself in embarrassment, she looked around for her clothes and saw Spike was holding them out to her.

"Thanks Spike, now turn around..." Rainbow Dash said softly. "I don't get it, you fillys walk around town naked all the time...yet when you put on clothes you all get embarrassed." He said as he got up off his knees and turned around. Rainbow quickly put her shirt on and noticed that it was far warmer than it should be seeing as it is very cold outside with the rain pouring down and all. Rainbow was on her elbows laying back on them, then looked out to her friends.

"Um rainbow, you may need medical attention after that strike." Fluttershy said shyly. "And you may not want to drink anymore." Dash nodded. "Yeah Ill see a doc tomorrow, tonight I wanna be with you guys."

Apple looked around the mares and Spike and spoke up. "We've been together for about 6 months, she makes me happy and I can't see myself with anypony else."

"I guess that the cats out of the bag eh, Jackie." Rainbow said nuzzling her cheek. "You tell me." AJ then placed her hoof around her filly and planted her lips on Rainbows, Rainbow felt her face flush, it was hot.

She never blushed, she never got nervous and above all she was never entranced in a kiss with AppleJack, it was always the other way around. Rainbow felt her wings slowly rise until they were fully erect. She felt stiff, like if it was her first kiss with AppleJack, she felt warm and loved. Closing her eyes and embracing the kiss, Rainbow felt AJ press her down on her back and mounted her placing her body in between Dash's legs. The mares watched in awe as the ponys before them got more and more suggestive.

"Um...girls?" Said Twilight cautiously. "We're gonna be in the bar if you decide to come down."

All but Spike began to head down the stairs, he was really happy knowing that the two reunited. Inhaling more of the toxic smoke and breathing it out he spoke as he was leaving. "That's hot."

After a few minutes of macking, dry humping and feather teasing, they returned to the bar very satisfied. The rest of the night the group listened to Applejack and Rainbow Dash explain their story on how they became a couple and how Rainbow managed to turn AJ into a filly-fooler.

The group had sat back in the large booth they had previously acquired. In the same order as before just with AJ sitting much closer to her now pronounced lover. Placing her head on Rainbow's shoulder looking over to her friends now happy they are so accepting of her decision. Now wearing her jacket rainbow, checked her inner pocket for her cigs.

She found that she didn't have anymore, and suddenly she saw AJ lighting two cigs in her mouth, and hoofing one to Rainbow whilst winking.

"It's funny, it all began with me taking Jackie's hat." The group giggled at the name Rainbow had given her. "You're gonna tell us about the Pet name right?" Asked Rarity. "Yeah, it's cute, I yelled that name out while she was licking my-" AppleJack nudged her with her elbow and gave her a stern look and shook her head.

"Oh rainbow really, must you be so bold..." Rarity said slightly interested in the story.

"Licking your what?" Pinkie said "Your love button?"

Rainbow nodded slightly smiling, Pinkie just giggled, then Dash spoke again. "After that the name just stuck, you don't mind do ya babe?" AJ shook her head and planted a kiss on her cheek. "Not at all, Ah love it."

"Oh my goddess, you two are so cute!" Twilight said with her hooves under her chin.

Rainbow and AJ just laughed. "So Rainbow was hidin' in one of mah trees. Ah reared my hind legs to buck, and when ah did she came down and swooped my hat clean of mah head." Rainbow began to snicker slightly knowing what was gonna happen next. "After buckin' a few trees, Ah was plum exhausted an' sweatn' up a storm." AJ blew out smoke and flicked her cigs ash off. "I tried to reposition my Stetson, so Ah reached up an' ah didn't feel it."

The mares looked truly intrigued by the story, they all had stopped drinking.

"A little freaked out ah looked around the ground at the trees I had bucked, ah couldn't find it...but what I did find was a giggling sound from on of the trees."

"So ah go to where the sound is comin' from and I see a bluish shade up in the tree. And of course I know who it is so I yell her name out." Rainbow begins to laugh and pulls Applejack closer to her.

"Rainbow! Ah yelled, get down here an' gimme mah hat!" Rainbow suddenly cuts in. "I was laughing so hard that I lost my balance and fell right out of the tree, she looked so adorable looking around like 'what in tarnation?" Rainbow tried to imitate Applejack's accent.

"So what happened next?" Asked Pinkie leaning over the table. "Well when Rainbow fell out of the tree I was genuinely concerned, so ah ran over and tried to help." Flicking the cigarette again and giving it to her lover. "You don't want it?" Asked Dash, Applejack shook her head and continued. "Y'all know Rainbow she ain't gonna miss a chance to double up on a prank, so she stayed motionless; ah thought she was really hurt so ah got worried."

Dash snickered a little, then nuzzled her partner getting more comfortable. Applejack looked down at her nuzzling lover with concern. "Hey sugar cube you right?" The alcohol and near death experience was really getting to rainbow, she felt the deep warmth of her lover and just wanted to get closer to her. "I'm great Jackie. Keep going." Fluttershy spoke up suddenly. "Hey does any -hic- pony want another drink? I'm buying." Spike rose his claw and nodded, Pinkie rose her hoof and giggled. "That...GASP...Dash that means the-" Dash in an instant cut her off. "Yeah!" She rose up at that very moment. "I know the bar tender I can...get you a...um discount." She trotted toward the timid pegasus and nudged her with her head to move.

"What was that about?" Twilight looked at the two walk away with a curious look. "I haven't the slightest but it was rather odd." Rarity replied. "Oh y'all just diggin', who ain't drunk here an' not actin' funny." Applejack was a bit confused as well but wasn't intrigued enough to investigate further.

"Rainbow -hic- Dash, what's going on? Why did you stop me?" Fluttershy said.

"Look Shy, I know what we did constitutes cheating but, you didn't know and I couldn't say anything about the relationship without upsetting Jackie." Getting closer to the counter now Fluttershy looked at her cyan friend and spoke softly. "Rainbow, you have to tell her." Dash propped herself up ignoring the suggestion entirely, she looked at the bar keep and jerked her head upward.

"Sup Dāsh, saw ya flyin' to the da door earlier, are ya a'aight?" The bar-keep spoke with a deep rusty accent, Rainbow had no idea where he was from and didn't rightly care. He was always nice to her and Applejack all the times that they had shown up. Dash thought for a moment and had realized that all the time that she had been in the bar, she had never asked for his name or asked what his cutie mark meant.

"Yeah I'm way better now, thanks for asking" Dash had to ask or it would plague her mind for the night. "Hey bar-keep I know this is bucked up but...what's your name?" The bar-keep shook his head, smiled and spoke. "Don'cha warry none, 'bout dat. Ya jast cal' me Bar-Keep like ya do."

Dash smiled and accepted the name. "Alright, my deeply shy and timid friend Fluttershy, was kind enough to buy the next round and she was wondering if she could get a discount by association." Fluttershy is always shy around new ponys, no matter what and Dash loved to exploit this to her entertainment. "I told her that you could do that right? The catch being that she needs to ask herself."

The bar-keep gave her a confused look like if the task at hoof was an easy one. "Ya right Dāsh, dat ain't a challenge." He spoke back. "For her it is, look at her." Dash pointed a hoof at Shy, her head was down and she was blushing madly. "Dash you are so mean." She said barely audible. "I don't get it Dāsh, what is with 'er?" Bar-Keep asked crooking his neck slightly. "See, it is a challenge." She replied.

"Pleasecanihaveadiscountbyknowingrainbowdash." Fluttershy didn't look up or even give a sign that she spoke at all. "Ha ha ha! Ok now I get it." Bar-keep spoke. "So what wil' it be den?" Dash placed her ear up to Shy's mouth and listened as she spoke. "Really? Your kinda drunk already babe." Bar-keep saw her mouth moving but no words could be heard from where he was. "Alright, jeez kiss your...hm...never mind, you got it Shy." Dash remembered Shy's fight with her mother when Rainbow and Fluttershy used to date back in Cloudsdale, it was a dark time and she didn't want to make Fluttershy cry, she knew that when Fluttershy cries she really lets it go. "Tel' me Dāsh, what wil' ya be havin'?"

"She wants a bottle of Maker's Mare." Rainbow looked up at the bar-keep with furrowed brows. "Dāsh are ya sure 'bout dat." Dash looked back down at Fluttershy who was now looking determinately at the bar-keep and nodded. "Right away mees Fluttashy." The bar-keep trotted away, leaving the two mares alone.

"Shy if you drink that stuff your not gonna be able to stand, let alone walk." Dash warned. "I don't care, I deserve this." She protested. "Also I wanna sing." Dash's eyes widened as did her smile. "Like the drunk you Shy, you're bolder." Bar-keep walked back with a bottle in his teeth, placed it on the counter and inhaled. "For you mees Fluttashy 18 bits will do." 'Damn that's a good price, that bottle is usually 30 bits' Dash thought to herself. Fluttershy looked at Rainbow Dash for confirmation, and Dash simply nodded. "Ok" she said breathily. Shy then reached into an unknown place on her person and brought out a brown bits bag; threw it on the counter and spoke confidently. "It's 20 bits, keep the two as a tip."

She thanked him and grabbed the bottle with her teeth then trotted back to the group. "Cute ain't she?" Dash said. "Keep an eye on 'er, she a shot 'way from passin' out." Dash nodded as she watched her trot away. "Will do bar-keep." Dash extended her hoof and met it with his, then hopped off the counter and followed Shy back to the booth.

"What did you get Shy?" Asked Twilight. "Maker's Mare!" She replied. "Everypony needs to drink some, I won't take no for an answer!" Everypony looked at shy with an nervous look.

"We'll have to if Shy wants it." Applejack stated. "Rarity, mind doin' the honors?" Applejack asked. "Why certainly dear, Fluttershy do you mind?" Rarity asked already grasping the bottle with her magic. "By all means." Shy replied. "Oh dear, who is who's shot glass?" Rarity asked. "Ah who cares the alcohol will sterilize the glasses anyways, right Twi?"

Dash asked not really knowing if it was true or not. She only said it not to want to figure out who glass was who's. Twilight furrowed her eyebrows and smiled, knowing well it wasn't true. "Sure, the alcohol will kill all the cooties Rare." Twilight hated lying to her friend like that, but it wasn't like anypony had a disease or anything. It was just Rarity being Rarity. "Oh pish, posh I know that isn't factual ladies, but very well I rough it up as it were and just choose a glass." She then proceeded to gather all the glasses and brought them close to her. "Any more challenges Dashie?" Pinkie asked.

Again nothing happened to her wings, it was odd but Dash looked at her lover and (21 pilots) shrugged. Pouring the shots very professionally Rarity then levitated the filled glasses to everypony. "I got one for you...Dashie..." Spike spoke out. Again nothing, not even a twitch, at that moment Applejack began giggling. "Jackie don't you dare!" Rainbow warned. "Awe c'mon sugar cube ya owe me one for the outburst." Ignoring her, Dash looked over at Spike and jerked her head. "What's the challenge scales?"

"You have to drink 3 and I'll drink 3 without flinching or wincing at all. If you fail then Applejack gets to call you 'that' for the rest of the night." Suddenly Applejack spoke up. "Wait- didn't y'all wanna here the story of me an' Rainbow?"

"Well, why don't we save that story for when when we go back to my house?" Twilight said looking at everypony. "You guys are coming back to my house right?" Fluttershy nodded, Rarity agreed and Pinkie simply said "yup!" "Hold it Twilight, are you really gonna have enough room for all of us? I mean that's 6 ponys and a dragon." Rainbow stated. "Well I do have room for 4 ponys. Spike has his bedroom, so I don't know where the other two will sleep." Dash smiled and spoke again. "Me and Jackie are gonna sleep in the same bed I'll give you that much."

"We figured that Dash, what about the others?" Twilight replied. "You and Fluttershy, Me and Jackie, Pinkie, Spike and Rarity will have to find a place, hahahah." Dash really wanted Fluttershy to get intimate with Twilight, but she didn't want to force them. It was true that they had already shared a kiss, but a kiss was simple, it almost means nothing when a mare is drunk. When a ponys inhibitions are gone anything can happen.

"Fluttershy are you O.K. with sharing a bed?" Twilight asked. "I plan on doing more than sharing Twily." Fluttershy spoke demanding tone that wasn't like her at all. "But if you don't want me Twilight..." Twilight looked at her and nodded shyly. "I'm actually ready to go now." Dash nodded. "Yeah, me too we can play the game at your house." Every pony agreed and rose up from the booth ready to depart.
