All is Forgiven (Vote Chapter)

Spike has to admit Gleaming Shield made a valid point, and it wasn’t as if he had any particular interest on keeping Cadence punished, after all. And the **** pout Gleaming Shield gave him was hard to resist, even as he was about to unload his load into her ass. Perhaps Gleaming Shield did deserve a reward.

"Alright Gleaming I'll forgive Cadence on two conditions," Spike grunted, seizing her shoulders and giving Gleaming a particularly hard shove.

"ANYTHING MASTER!" She squealed, her voice almost certainly echoing before the halls of the Crystal Palace.

He leaned forward, his lips biting on the edge of her ear, his eyes darted for a brief moment to glance at Cadence’s face who seemed to be touched, relieved and honoured simultaneously. They really did love each other.

“First of all I think you should join Cadence in her little pornographic business, make sure you two invest in some good camera equipment though,” Spike ordered, as Gleaming Shield frantically nodded.

“Oh yes Master, you bet. We’ll be a double act Cadence and I,” she said, pleased beyond all measure. So giddily excited that she could only be calmed down when Cadence planted her lips on her’s, delivering a sexy French kiss that shut her up.

“And the second thing Master?” Cadence asked, as she pulled away.

Spike pulled his monster dick out of Gleaming Shield’s cunt, and laid back onto one of the comfortable chairs in the room. His mast still wet and slimy from the cum in Gleaming’s pussy, and had risen well past his belly button. “Think you and your fiancée could give me a hell of a double titjob?”

The two looked at each other, before their faces split into grins that could rival sharks. “Master all you needed to do was ask.”

Meanwhile in the mountains around the Crystal Empire an orange coated fur made their way up through the snow covered paths. Flurry Heart was quite confused with her babysitter’s choice of activity today. Normally the orange coloured babysitter liked to read books to her and help her learn how magic worked. Daddy was usually the one who took them on trips to the countryside. This trip was also distinctly one of the less fun ones, they could have at least stopped to build a snowpony.

“Damn fucking cold,” her babysitter growled, rubbing her shoulders around herself. Uncle Sunburst usually wasn’t this angry, but everypony had their off days. Like that day Flurry had lost her Whammy, maybe Uncle Sunburst had lost his Whammy?

Flurry Heart tried to see if she could spot Uncle Sunburst’s Whammy is the snow but really she couldn’t see anything. She wondered what his Whammy would be doing here anyway?

“Finally,” her Uncle growled as they came upon a dark cave. Flurry herself didn’t like it too much, it looked scary.

“Agoo?” She asked in confusion, placing a hand on Uncle Sunburst’s face to get his attention.

“Urgh hands off,” he shouted, which caused Flurry Heart to shrink and her wings folded back. She had never seen Uncle Sunburst upset before, maybe it was his eyes, not his Whammy. They weren’t normally green before.

They entered the cave and found themselves at an old, rickety table. A few other ponies were there including a woman who looked like mommy albeit with sparkly blue hair. “Is she alright? You didn’t hurt her did you?”

“No I didn’t hurt her,” Uncle Sunburst groaned, though of course the unicorn didn’t believe her. Skeptical her eyes narrowed towards Flurry Heart, she must be playing a game. Eager to play along Flurry Heart stuck her tongue out in her own funny face.

“Thank goodness, mind if I take care of her?” the new woman said, levitating Flurry into her arms. “Hello did you enjoy the trip Flurry Heart? I’m Radiant Hope.”

Flurry Heart giggled, this Radiant Hope seemed nice. Maybe she would be a new auntie to go with her Uncle Sunburst. Uncle Sunburst however has a strange sneer to his face, before suddenly bursting into green flames and transforming into a scary black insect lady. Where did Uncle Sunburst go?

She began to cry, then scream, thrashing her hands around in a panic. Who was this strange woman, where was her Uncles Sunburst. Magic burst out from her, sending yellow beams of magic into the walls and causing them to erupt in flame.

“What the hell is she doing?” Chrysalis snarled, ducking down as a bolt very nearly hit her head.

“You idiot you scared her,” Radiant Hope shouted, backing away in a panic. Flurry Heart had taken to her wings and covered herself in a shield of magic.

“Scared her? Scared her? I’ll show her scared-YEOW!” Chrysalis snarled before she was hit in the finger and had to blow it out in a panic.

“What were you thinking transforming in front of her?” Radiant Hope shouted back, but Flurry Heart didn’t care. More magic streamed out of her in her tantrum. She wanted Uncle Sunburst back, she wanted her Daddy and her Mommy, not these strangers. She was scared, she was angry, she was… she was...

There was a voice, soft and gentle, just like mommy and she was singing a familiar song. "Sunshine, sunshine, ladybugs awake, shake your hooves and do a little shake."

She stopped crying, as she turned to see the figure approaching. Her shield dropped as she floated towards the figure. She was concealed in a big blue cloak with very funny symbols of gold over it. When she held Flurry Heart in her hooves her grip felt familiar, gentle and soft.

"I have a gift for you Flurry," the figure whispered and with a flash a soft small toy appeared in her hands. Her Whammy! She was sure to grab it in her little hands and to chew it in her mouth, like it was a dummy. She smiled up at this stranger and babbled happily. Surely if this lady loved songs and Whammies she couldn't be so bad. Little hands hugged this strange woman's arms as the hooded figure sat down on the rickety table, placing down a chest she was holding in her free hand.

"I see you have succeeded Chrysalis, I'm guessing they just handed Flurry over when you were disguised as Sunburst. You did remember to replace Flurry Heart with one of your own Changelings correct? Was is Onyx or Valis you chose?"

Chrysalis could barely hold back a snarl, this 'Master of Time's' habit of predicting everything she did was getting under her skin. "Why bother asking? You clearly know everything already."

"My one weakness I'm afraid. I can see every option, and every consequence for each of them but I cannot see which choice they'll make," The Master of Time explained, and Chrysalis was pleased to hear a bit of bitterness in her voice.

"Is that so? Maybe your power isn't as great as you think it is," Chrysalis said, with a smirk.

Infuriatingly the Master of Time didn't seem to rise to her provocation. "Free will means I can never see that Chrysalis. If I could we would have no real choice, we would be slaves to fate. I can try to predict the likelihood of a particular choice but no more than that."

"I'm nopony's ****," Chrysalis snarled, but infuriating the Master of Time seemed pleased with statement.

"Good, help me and you'll stay that way." She said, before looking behind her at the shadow that was now taking the form of Sombra who held a ball of purple swirling magical energy in his hand.

"Here you have it, the unicorn bitch's inner darkness extracted in the flesh. Hope it's worth it, had to sneak it out when she was fucking her dragon bastard," Sombra growled, earning a snort from Chrysalis.

"Then I suppose you also heard them talk about their plans to enslave everypony and perhaps the Root of Honesty if you stayed long enough. You know now the threat I'm warning you about is very real." The Master of Time explained, and Sombra could grunt in acknowledgment.

"So how is that supposed to help us?"

"Like this," The Master of Time explained, before ceremoniously dropping it on the floor, a figure began to form. With a midnight night fur that glistened as if with the stars, long expansive locks of dark purple hair exploded from her skull and down her waist. She held herself with a impeccable posture and wore a sparkly navy blue dress. She was beautiful, and held a perfect figure with tits that even the narcissistic Chrysalis had to admit was fantastic.

"So I suppose I have you three to thank for releasing me," she mentioned, her voice was as cool and classy as wine. She opted to take a seat on a table and simply smile. "Might I inquire the reason?"

"You don't need me to tell you what your counterpart is planning Nightmare Rarity, you have after all been inside her head. We have no intention of being her slaves, in exchange for your help we offer you your freedom," The Master of Time explained, and Nightmare Rarity's smile turned giddy as she started to stir the glass of wine. Delighted that her liberator would be so naive, she shared her counterpart's fantasy albeit she would be most certainly having Spike as a **** rather than a Master. "And I think you'll need a plan to deal with Spike's Root of Honesty, fortunately of course I have such a plan."

Nightmare Rarity's grin could now rival that of a shark, but still she played coy. "And what exactly could I offer this conspiracy that you don't already have?"

"Please don't insult my intelligence Nightmare Rarity," The Master of Time replied coolly, "after all the Root of Magic isn't just limited to Rarity is it?"

Nightmare Rarity snapped her fingers, and in an instant the rickety wooden table became one of perfect gold, fit for a queen. "I suppose it isn't, so tell me more about this plan of yours."

A/N: So I'm now left with a small quandary. Is Nightmare Rarity a background character or a main character? Since the next poll is a background character vote only, she is in the mlp universe but in this story. Interesting.

Anyway Queen Umbra is winning this next poll it seems, which was quite surprising since she came fifth last time. Guess you all like your genderswaps. Suggestions for her will of course be welcome. Vote here though: https://strawpoll.com/polls/w4nWrroVJyA
