Shadowed Souls
Chapter 2: Fuck Everything
Previous ChapterNext ChapterChrysalis regaled me with talk of her species and their abilities. I’d managed to goad her into believing I needed to know all of her physical and magical properties in order to pull off a successful escape plan. I had an ulterior motive regarding her at the time. Should she prove to be allied with Celestia after all, I would know just where to hurt her. She explained that Changelings fed off of the emotions of other species, love being the most potent source of sustenance for them. I understood why she was as desperate to escape as she was. Starving was a slow and painful process, and she would get no love from her captors, at least not in the sense she had described.
In exchange for information, I had to regale to her my time in this cell. She was disgusted to say the least. It had taken me a week to figure out the routine of the guards and factor in Chrysalis’ changeling abilities. Over the course of that time, Chrysalis mentioned that she’d somehow managed to find a source of food from my emotions. Perhaps I liked her to some extent. Then again, ‘the enemy of my enemy’ as they say.
I had a concrete escape plan, but I didn’t tell her that. I waited for the right moment. If I was to trust Chrysalis, she needed to experience the true extent of my hatred by suffering similar disgraces as my own. Right on cue, the male guard entered alone without his female comrade. In the sunlight, he was a white stallion with a red mane. The red was nothing special, just like the red on a Toyota hatchback; plain and simple, much like the pony the mane belonged to. He had a familiar glint in his eye, one I knew all too well. As I expected, he ignored me and focused his gaze on the Changeling. Chrysalis’ instinct kicked in and she tried to back away into the shadows, but the guard grabbed her by one of her legs and pulled her back out into the light. Chrysalis screamed, trying to force him off. She’d gathered a considerable amount of strength since feeding off of me, but it wasn’t enough to deter the stallion. He forced her down and onto her back. She tried to fight still but was butted in the head as a result.
Dazed by the helmet, Chrysalis stopped struggling and was open for assault. And assault her he did. I watched with empathy as Chrysalis was broken into, that battering ram of a horse cock ploughing into her. It took me more strength than I thought was needed to prevent myself from helping her. I could have escaped my shackles now I’d used the forks left behind from the past few meals to create a makeshift key. But it wasn’t the right time.
“No! Stop! Please, stop!” I forced myself to listen to Chrysalis beg for mercy in vain as the sex-crazed guard ruined her.
It was a slow descent into madness. First came denial, then pleading, then submission. It didn’t take her long to submit to this cruel debauchery of the flesh. I could see in her eyes that she’d surrendered completely and utterly, but I could also see that she wanted nothing more than to escape from such a world. From within the darkness, I watched her silently plead for my help. Al the while I remained silent and unmoving, practically dead to the world. I watched as one of her hooves slowly moved towards me, trying to touch a part of me. She needed something to hold on to. I offered her my leg and she took it graciously. The guard was none the wiser as he was engrossed in what it was he was doing.
Fortunately, the torture came to an end with loud grunts, a full womb and empty balls. As the guard pulled his now exhausted member out of the Changeling, it was still leaking slightly. He took the opportunity to clean himself on Chrysalis’ surface, going the extra mile to make sure something went into the holes in her legs. Chrysalis was disgusted beyond belief. A fitting groan from the indecency escaped her lips and a chuckle was all he responded with. I watched as he left the cell, closing the door afterwards. He then noticed me and pointed a hoof at me.
“See you tonight, boy.” he threatened. as he walked away, I couldn’t help but smile behind his back.
“I wouldn’t miss it.” I muttered as he ascended the spiral staircase across from the door. Alone once more with Chrysalis, she began to cry. A queen of a unique and amazing species had become a sex thing for Celestia’s guards, and reduced to a snivelling mess. Her wails filled the dungeon and she refused to move her body. She still had a grip on my leg. I used my other leg to grasp her hoof between them. With a lot of difficulty, I dragged her towards me and pulled her up to my level where she buried herself in my chest and cried even harder. She knew now how I felt. I wasn’t a proud person, but she was. Just one session like that for her was equal to all those I’d had. She’d lost her pride and her dignity both.
That night, I explained the plan to her and she agreed with everything. We knew I couldn’t factor in variables like the stations of all the guards, or how many there were, but we were sure we could at least take down the two guards that posed a threat in here. I unlocked my shackles, but kept my arms where they were, pretending that I was still shackled. Just in time, the male guard emerged from the stairs, alone. This had happened before. He was often quick to finish his food so he could come down here and have some fun while his partner remained behind to eat at her own pace. The delay was fine; it made things easier.
The guard had a renewed hunger in his eyes. Apparently, I was his special pet. I huffed at him as the cell door opened. He made his way to me when he noticed Chrysalis’ reaction to him. She was terrified, scurrying into the corner to try and fit through the bars. He smiled and turned his head back to me.
“I can wait.” I said. He chuckled and nodded, turning back to Chrysalis and slowly approaching her like a raptor creeping towards its prey. With his attention on her, I slipped my hands from the shackles and stood up, getting behind him. Chrysalis’ whimpers turned to laughs, confusing the guard.
I threw my arm around him and put him in a stranglehold. He tried to fight me off, but I was taller and stronger. Chrysalis dealt a sharp kick to his stomach, winding him. With my arm around his neck, he couldn’t replace the lost air and he lost consciousness. Releasing him minutes after and letting his dead body fall to the ground, I decided to chain him up where I was. I took his keys as well as his sword and belt. The belt was too small for my waist, so I tied it over my torso, letting the blade sling over my back with the scabbard. Shortly afterward, we heard another set of hooves descend the stairs. Chrysalis took on the stallion’s form and waited at the foot of the steps while I hid in the shadows.
“Quick Flash, is everything alright? I thought I heard some rustling around. It didn’t sound like your usual shuffling. Chrysalis smiled and shook his head.
“Everything’s fine. Better than it’s been in weeks, actually.” The female guard looked beyond ‘Quick Flash’ and noticed the real one chained to the wall and Chrysalis missing. She was quick to deduce the outcome.
“Oh no.” She went to draw her blade and retreat, but I brought Quick Flash’s blade around her throat.
“Drop it.” I ordered. The female swallowed hard and did as commanded. Chrysalis went to pick the fallen blade up and handed it to me. I took it graciously and smiled.
“I wonder, does it feel like twelve years to you?” I asked the mare. She began shaking nervously. I brought the pommel of the sheathed blade to her tail and pushed it aside, rubbing the end of the hilt against her marehood.
“It felt like twelve years to me. They say twelve years isn’t that long if you think about it, but I thought about it every day, and it was like a lifetime.” I forced the pommel into her and she whined.
“I counted the ways I would get revenge on you both. It was over too soon for Flasher boy over there, but you… What do you think Chrysalis, can we spare some time?” I asked. The Changeling shrugged as she changed out of the Quick Flash disguise.
“An hour won’t make much difference, and I’m not starving thanks to you.” she replied. I grinned and pulled the pommel of the blade out of the guard mare. She whimpered at the prospects that presented themselves. I switched my grip on the blade and began to slowly insert the point into her. She gasped in surprise as the cold metal and sharp edge made thin little cuts in her wet nether region.
“I don’t think it’ll take an hour.” I said and leaned forward, nibbling on the mare’s ear. She gave a little yelp before trying to appeal to my sense of justice.
“Please, if you do this… you’ll be no better than us or Princess Celestia.” she argued. I just chuckled and turned her face towards me with Flash’s blade. I planted a kiss on her lips and grinned at her.
“Your Princess is a monster. Experience has taught my kind that it takes another monster to kill one. I’ll gladly leave my humanity behind in this cell if it means absolute revenge. Celestia can’t stop me now.” I saw all hope leave her eyes as she realised death was upon her. Such a look made me giddy with excitement. I twirled the blade around inside of her a few times, eliciting pained and pleased moans in response. The mare had surrendered too easily. I brought the sharp blade out of her and handed it to Chrysalis. Then I undid her belt and slung it across my torso, like I had with Flash’s. I took back her blade from Chrysalis and sheathed it.
“Though, compared to him, I suppose you’ve been rather good to me these past twelve years. You fed me at first, and you didn’t really do anything depraved. I suppose I’ll let you off the hook. Maybe I’m sexist, I don’t care. But I warn you now; cross me again and I won’t be so lenient.” I placed my hand over her flank and led her into the cell. I took her keys and closed the cell door, locking her in. The keys were tossed on the counter where they would sometimes do actual guarding.
“That was fun. Shall we your Highness?” I asked, offering Chrysalis the stairs. She chuckled and accepted. Before she got a few steps however, the guard mare addressed us.
“You know… most of us believe in what the Princess is doing. But the rest of us are too scared to cross her.” she said. I turned to face her again.
“And which are you?”
The mare sighed for a moment. “The latter.” she replied.
“Then keep doing what you’re doing. When the opportunity presents itself, pick a side and fight for either your Princess or your freedom.” The mare looked at me.
“Are you fighting for your freedom?” she asked.
“Well I’m certainly not fighting for my Princess.” I replied. The mare managed a smile despite the situation she was in.
“Hey, if you manage to get an army against Princess Celestia, I’ll fight for you.” she said. I nodded at her and left it at that. Ascending the stairs with the Changeling Queen, she took on the form of the mare in the cell. At the top of the stairs was a door. When I opened it, the area was clear.
“Come on.” I said, leading the way. The corridor was long and each of my footsteps smacking the stone floors echoed throughout it. Together we ran, hastily, indefatigable through the castle. I began to grow uneasy at the lack of guards.
“Hold up.” I said, stopping the trek. Chrysalis obeyed and looked around.
“You noticed it too then? No guards.” I nodded, cursing not having brought that mare with us.
“I think we should find a place to hide within the castle until things don’t seem… too easy.” I suggested. Chrysalis gave me a look.
“Hide in the castle? How could we do that? They’ll be on full alert when they realise we’re missing.”
“Relax, we just need to find a disused room, that’s all.” I said. I opened a door and peeked inside. Sadly, I was met with dozens of faces and one I recognised. Some form of party was going on and all eyes had been on the General, Twilight Sparkle.
“You?!” she growled at me.
“Well fuck. Chrysalis, run!” I called. I slammed the door shut behind me and bolted alongside the queen as angry soldiers chased us.
“Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, FUCK!!!” I shouted with each step I took. As we went to turn a corner, we saw more guards running toward us from that direction.
“Whoa boy! Other way, reverse, reverse!” I said. Chrysalis followed suit but stopped as she saw another group coming from the opposite direction. We tried going back the way we came only to see Twilight and her guards pursuing us.
“Was this in your plan?” Chrysalis asked. I hesitated to answer, looking around for an escape. There was a window. Next to it, a stone statue of Celestia roughly the size of my arm.
“Oh, god yes!” I said. I picked up the statue and raised it in the air. I could see Twilight’s face darken at the prospect.
“You know what? FUCK–EVERYTHING!!!” I shouted, throwing the statue at the window. Both shattered into pieces. I grabbed Chrysalis and jumped out with her. How we got up so high, I’ll never know. I positioned myself on her back and held on tight.
“You said you could carry three times your body weight, well start carrying.” I said. Chrysalis caught on amidst the frightening descent and opened her wings to the fresh air. I groaned as the sudden halt to our descent crushed my nuts.
“Sonofabitch!” I croaked, as I lay forward on the Changeling.
“I swear you weren’t this… stupid when we were in the cell.” she noted.
“I’m excited, alright? Twelve years suffering what you did earlier today, you’d be a little crazy too. Who am I kidding, you would probably be mental.” I said.
Our conversation was cut short however, as a spear flew past our heads, missing us by inches. I turned around on Chrysalis’ back to see the Pegasi following us, led by Rainbow Dash.
“Oh great, the gay pride flight squad.” I growled, standing up on the Queen’s back.
“The what?” she asked.
“Seriously? Rainbows, homos, you didn’t get the connection?” Chrysalis shook her head. I sighed. “No wonder they’re the dominant species.” I muttered under the wind. I saw another spear headed my way, and I unsheathed both blades, knocking the spear off its trajectory. Rainbow Dash sped ahead and met me blade to blade. With her skills as a swords…woman/pony/mare combined with her flight speed, she was en-par with my own skills. I managed to get a little foot room, careful not to step on Chrysalis’ head or her wing joints. This bitch was good. She had me turning around, dodging everything that came my way. I saw only one way of beating her at this rate.
“Chrysalis, get ready.” I said.
“For what?” she asked. I decided to answer practically. I jumped off of her back and fell towards the ground. As I’d hoped, Dash followed me. I could see Chrysalis trying to catch me first, but I had dash right where I wanted her. She’d gone for a spear dive, her blade pointed directly in front of her. I abandoned all defence and swung one blade across her dive, knocking hers away from the vital areas. She still managed to get my shoulder, but with my other blade, I thrust forward. With my longer reach, I had no trouble piercing her wing. I heard her yell and felt the blade shudder as Rainbow Dash cried in pain. Abandoning one blade, I used my wounded arm to punch her squarely in the face, knocking her back.
As I gripped Dash’s blade which was in my shoulder, I felt Chrysalis slowly reduce my descent before levelling off. Holding the blade in my shoulder prevented it from moving as she caught me.
“Alright, where are we going now?” I asked as I sat myself upright on the mare.
“The Everfree Forest. It’s so dangerous not even Celestia would go in there. And she certainly won’t waste her army trying to find us inside. She’ll wait until we strike her.” I pulled the blade out of my shoulder and saw the blood flowing out, forced back by the wind blowing by.
“When we get the chance, I’d like to get some clothes.” I said, feeling the cold creep up on me. I looked back to make sure we weren’t being followed. As expected, the other guards had stopped their pursuit in order to aid their Captain. I sheathed both blades over my back, the left one with some difficulty. “Also, I need a bath.”
