The Only Love for All

The Forest

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

I am walking through the Ever Free Forest looking for the changeling Queen. I have managed to avoid trouble so far. I remember the morning when Twilight said she would make me breakfast before I left. I kindly turned it down in favor of some Ice I froze together and chewed on to wake my mind up. I am currently near a spring that I have been trying to pinpoint. The forest’s trees make the air humid and musky. The sun rarely touches the ground but it is extremely warm like a rain forest back on earth.

I hear a soft whimper of something in pain. It sounded like it came behind a curtain of vines to my left. I chop the vines away with my sword to reveal the spring I had been searching for. Also I notice a dark form tied to the nearby tree. I slowly approach the tree and see that a black pony has been restrained their. This pony had teal blue hair and insect wings with a jagged horn. The pony’s hooves had holes in them. Seeing this I rushed the rest of the way to the pony asking “Hey, do you need help?” the mare, as my eyes roam her body, lifts her head up and she is sobbing. I make quick work of the ropes and notice she has been like this for a few days.

“How did this happen to you?” I ask her a she lays down.

“I was restrained by my people for failing them.” She replied with a sob and wince as she stretched her legs.

“Here let me heal you first then we will continue our talk, k?” I tell her. She nods and I take some of the water out of the spring, with my power, warm it slightly, then placed it over her wounds. The mare let out a small cry as the water started to heal her. When I was done she was passed out from the pain the healing brought and I rested next to her.

I stand as I hear the buzz of insect wings. Seeing the mare still passed out on the grass next to the spring meant it wasn’t her. I waited for the buzzing to stop. I then saw where the buzzing came from as I saw five small black ponies land in front of me.

“Walk away now and we won’t harm you.” Spat the one black pony in front.

“What have I done earn this type of welcome?” I ask as I ready my power for a fight.

“You have healed the exile when she was to die for putting her people in danger.” The pony spat back.

“So, you’re going to expect me to walk away as you five take her and basically kill her? Yeah, not going to happen.” I tell them with a little force in my voice as a warning. I knew I could take them on by myself.

“You don’t even know who she is and yet you decide to protect her. For that you will die.” At that they all charged me. Wrong move, I countered all five with ease then quickly froze them all solid.

I de-thaw one of them with a sword to its throat and say. “Now you are going to listen to me. I am going to ask questions and you’re going to answer if you want to live, got it?” The pony nodded.

“Good, now what are you?” I ask.

“We are changelings.” said the sad little creature.

“Who is the mare that I am protecting?”

“She is our former queen, Chrysalis.” He replies with a snarl. I behead the changeling and shatter the rest into snow that quickly melts. How could she be Chrysalis? I will just have to ask her when she wakes. I walk back over to the sleeping mare, sit down and meditate.

I finish my meditation as I here a moan from the mare. I open my eyes and watch her sit up.

“Did you sleep well?” I ask.

“Yes thank you for healing me.” She replies, “And protecting me?”

“Yes I protected you as five of your pals came to finish you off.” I reply as I eye the head of a changeling.

“Why did you save me? I don’t have anything to give you.” She asks.

“I helped you because you were in need. I helped because I wanted to, not for something in return.” I answer her, “Who are you anyways?”

“I am the former queen of the changelings, Chrysalis.” She answered with a sad look in her eyes.

“Well lets head to shelter for it is almost night fall.” I tell her, “Can you walk?”

She tries to stand but her legs fail her. She falls to the ground with a grunt.

“I can teleport us to a nearby cave and we can sleep their.” I say as I step closer to her. I place my arm around her. She is about to protest as we are quickly swallowed by water and deposited at the entrance of a cave.

“I didn’t know humans could teleport, or even control water.” She said to me with a look of curiosity.

“I am a living element. My element is water which is also my name, but I prefer to be called ice for I usually only use ice.” I reply.

“Oh so what are you doing in the Ever Free Forest?” she asks.

“I was sent here to look for and arrest you, but my objectives have changed.” I answer.

“Why did you change your mind?” She asks.

“Because of you, I have never seen anything quite so beautiful in all of my life.” I answer. Mentally face-palming for saying that.

“I accept the compliment for I have never seen someone who is so attractive.” She answers. I blush and she giggles. I decide to set up camp and lay my equipment inside the cave. Chrysalis just lays down inside and waits for me to finish. I freeze the cave shut so that we don’t get any unexpected visitors. I then start a spell I just barely learned. I make two large blocks of ice then turn them to snow, making two make snow beds that are warm to the touch. I set them down next to each other near the wall of the cave. I then make my way through the wall of ice and return with fire wood.

I get a fire started and Chrysalis nudges me as she leans against me. I blush and make a rose out of ice and place it in her hair.

“Isn’t everything you just made going to melt?” she asks.

“No the ice and snow I create will stay until I melt it.” I say as I create a snow ball then melt it for her to see.

“What about the fire?” she asks. For an answer I create another rose and place it right next to the flames. It didn’t even drip. I make it melt then use the water to wash some of the dirt of the changeling’s cheek. She blushes as I evaporate the water and pecks me on the cheek. I face flushed such a bright red that the rose in her hair evaporated instantly. She giggles and says, “I need to feed.”

I stand and grab my bag and offer her an apple. She shakes her head and says, “Changelings don’t eat regular food. We feed off of love.” I then felt my heart of ice melt as I look into her eyes. I fought the urge to kiss her as she stared longingly into my eyes. I keep fighting my feelings when she leans in and kisses me I slowly return the kiss and give in to my emotions as I catch her in an embrace. She opens her mouth a little and asks for permission to enter using her tongue. I allow her entrance and our tongues found each other immediately. After what felt like an hour of kissing I pull away and say, “I need to meditate on today and also think about what I’m going to do with you tomorrow when we return to Canterlot.”

“Are you sure because I’m not full.” She tries to persuade me.

“Yes, I need to know how to approach Celestia before we make it there.” I say turning her down but then say, “I am not going to have sex with you yet because I need to now if what I am feeling is right. Also I think you need to think about this as well.”

She pouts but I just stand up and turn to sit on my snow bed when she asks, “Can we at least sleep in the same bed?” My answer was to push the beds together into one. I sat down on my side and started to meditate when a thought entered my head.

“Chrysalis I have a way of meditating together where we can mix our minds for a while if you would like to join me, besides I would enjoy your presence.” I say to the now happy mare. She walks her way over to her side of the bed and climbs in.

“Ok, the way this works is we have to have physical contact, and then you can let me do the rest, I’ve never actually done this with anyone but my brother.” I tell her.

“How do I know that it has started?” she asked.

“Watch.” I say as I embrace her. I started the session and it took off. I hear her gasp as I lead her into my mind. I lead her throughout the day that I had, from when I woke to the moment we lied down. Then I showed her what my mind could do. I showed her Earth and the worlds that I have seen. I hear her gasping as I show her wonder after wonder that I have seen. When the session was finished Chrysalis was on top of me wanting more. I gave her a quick kiss and her eyes fluttered open.

“That was….amazing.” she whispered to me. She returned my kiss, and then rolled off of me. “You do that every day?” she asked.

“Yes, but I don’t go into the amazing parts very often.” I reply.

“May we do this again?” she asked with a breathy voice.

“If things go the way I want them to at Canterlot, then yes.” I answered in the same breathy voice.

“Goodnight my Ice.” said Chryslais as she snuggled up to me for sleep.

“Goodnight my Queen.” I replied as we both fell asleep intertwined together.
