Things seemed awfully quiet as Twilight flew from her home to the Apples' farm. Everywhere she looked, she could see groups of ponies talking to themselves or busy with several tasks. Food gathering and storing would be important, since the recent lessons of her history books had proven to be quite helpful when planning a siege... or so she hoped to, at least. Would it really become a long siege, like those she had read about? She had seen about one siege that lasted almost all the way to the decade.
Looking around, her heart sunk when she saw they were definitely not ready for a siege, much less one that had the potential to last that long. They were still expecting more letters and, with a bit of hope, more help would eventually arrive to them.
Even Fluttershy's animals had begun to roam the land, trying to get the most help they could from the other critters who, just like them, had been helped by the local pony population. Still, Twilight had several concerns about it, since she had only seen Futtershy with a handful of beasts that could be considered... wild. She did hope they could at least have some more bears on their side... and not only butterflies and such.
Shaking the thought away from her mind, she instead focused on the task at hand. The runes in the cane of the rune master still had her intrigued, since they somehow absorbed all the magic directed towards them and instead of storing it, it simply... vanished. Or it was sent somewhere else...
To prove her theory, she needed more evidence, and that was why she was pretty much about to stand in front of one of the currently worst enemies of ponykind. A Caribou. And the thought of it was already sending chills down her spine, even causing her to shiver slightly.
Still, she needed more evidence and things for her studies, which might help in finishing that conflict faster...
"Conflict"... Twilight silently scorned herself as she found herself using that word again instead of calling it what it truly was... war. They were at war. Possibly the first one in centuries. But she needed to be strong... she needed to... for her friends.
She cleared her head out of such thoughts for the moment, as she almost flew straight into a tree. She needed to be strong, but she also needed to stay focused... otherwise, she'd end up crashing against a figurative tree down the road. Such an ironic thought...
Shaking her head away from such thoughts, she instead looked forward, finally seeing the barn of the Apples'... which had been turned into a temporal... prison of sorts. The main door had been secured with a large wooden bar to prevent it to be easily opened... at least from the inside. and all the windows had been closed with strong wooden planks.
A pair of loyal guards stood by the doors, standing firm as ever, making twilight remember fondly the times where she'd be free to roam the castle's seemingly endless corridors and watch at least one of them every now and then, making her feel safe. Who would have known there would be a time where they'd be watching, instead of the pristine and immaculate white walls of Celestia's castle, and old, disheveled barn in a little quaint village. Of course, they still made her feel safe, so that was a plus.
At least if the corruption hadn't reached them yet. Almost immediately, that same feeling they brought to young Twilight was shattered when present twilight suddenly remembered the situation they were in. So far, none of them had shown yet any signs of corruption... but what if they were faking it? What if they had already fallen and they were just faking their support for her, acting as spies for the Caribou?
"Princess Twilight, milady?" One of the guards spoke up, making her get out of the trance she was in, suddenly realizing she had stood still... and quiet. She berated herself once more while using a small spell on herself to... calm herself.
"My apologies, gentlecolts... there is too much to ponder right now. Please forgive for being... distraught."
Twilight's answer only served to worry the stallions, as it was too much of a vague answer for them. Still, they nodded at her... after all, she was the princess, who was leading the effort of resistance against the Caribou. And quite understandably, she'd surely have a lot to think about.
"Anyways, back to the matter at hand..." Twilight quickly said with a firmer tone of voice, making both guards stand firm before her. "... I need to enter."
Both guards turned to each other before one of them nodded, asking for the secret word. Since the enemy had changelings on their files, they made sure to share a secret word among the population of ponyville so they could be sure. Of course, Twilight answered correctly, since she had been the one to create such word every morning.
Nodding firmly, both stallions turned to face each other before removing the wooden bar blocking the door, unsheathing their swords and telling the princess to stand in there for a moment just in case one of the Caribou had gotten out. After a few moments, the two guards declared loudly "clear", letting Twilight know they were secured and would cause no troubles... at least not physically.
As soon as she set a single hoof inside the barn, she was received with a... colorful language from the Caribou, some of them merely sticking with "pathetic, coward female, hiding behind a pair of strong males", and all the way to swearing to her that she'd die while choking on their cocks for such an offense against the Caribou King and his new kingdom.
Twilight merely dedicated herself to ignore such insults, instead focusing on scanning the room, looking for any set of weapons, armor, or other things that could have runes engraved onto them. And sure enough, even if their armor was... scarce, there were still pieces of crudely made armor on some of them. Shoulder pads, chest plates, some crude helmets on some of them (some of which actually did a poor job at concealing their faces or even their heads, looking more like a ritualistic or ornamental pieces than actual armor.
But much to her delight, all the pieces she gathered were engraved with at least a couple of runes on them. Of course, more than once, one of the guards had to intervene when twilight tried to remove the pieces or armor, since some of the caribou not only spit foul words of phrases at her, some actually tried to bite her, or hit her with their antlers.
But in the end, twilight had well over a dozen of pieces to study. And that was enough for her... she already had enough of the Caribou at that moment. But just when she began to pick them up, did she realize one problem... there were too many for her alone. They would interrupt her magic, and as such, if she began to fly, she'd only be able to carry one piece on each hand, a couple of pieces if they were small enough... or just one with both hands if she lifted a chest plate.
Such thoughts began to fill her head when one of the guards proposed a better solution (surprising twilight, causing her to think of why hadn't she thought of it sooner). He'd go and fetch a cart, allowing him, or another guard to simply put all the pieces on it and then pull it towards her home. Twilight smiled sheepishly at that, giving the guard the permission to do so.
Twilight was left alone with only one guard... but the Caribou were secured, and there was no way nothing bad would happen, right? Famous last words...
Twilight shook those thoughts out of her head. Everything was calmed, and no reports of any other Caribou groups had been given to her so far, so she could be calm for the moment. Of course, instead of being "calm", she picked up a random piece of armor and began to inspect it with her hands, walking towards some wooden logs the Apples had left as "chairs" and sitting down.
Quickly, she identified some runes she had seen in the staff, specially those that absorbed... or nullified the unicorns' magic. Soon enough, the world around her seemed to vanish away while she focused only on the runes, trying to identify those she did know and those she hadn't seen so far, taking a mental note to study them later.
Some time had seemingly passed before Twilight opened her eyes, realizing she somehow had fallen asleep while inspecting a chesplate, long enough to act as a table of sorts for the comparatively smaller alicorn. Setting it aside, Twilight had to take several steps away before conjuring a small notepad and a quill so the runes did not cancel her magic. Almost instantly, she began to make crude drawings of the runes she needed to study, as well as to guess exactly what they did, also making sure to write below the runes a small list of things she needed to investigate.
As always, Twilight could not stand still while pondering about the things she needed to do, starting at first with tapping a hoof against the ground, and then starting to shift from one hoof to another, soon enough turning into a full circling walk, all while she was making a brainstorm as to what each rune made.
In one specific moment, she seemed to wander too close to one of the pieces while submerged into her own thoughts, suddenly hearing two soft thuds behind her. Turning around, she almost slapped herself when she noticed both objects, quill and notebook, laid on the ground behind her... and all of her magic had seemingly vanished away. She leaned down to take both objects with her hands, sighing softly while calling herself stupid over and over for such a small thing as walking too close to a magic nullifing object.
Though as soon as she got up, grabbing both objects with her hands, she also noticed something out of the corner of her eye... the door to the barn was open... and the other guard who had stayed with her was nowhere to be seen!
She began to panic, quickly using her magic to lift a small quantity of stones in the air, ready to sent them flying directly at the face of the first caribou she saw... of course, taking the caution of stepping at the "safe" distance from the runes. Slowly, she began to get closer to the barn trying to look inside as clearly as possible. Too bad she was in the sun, making the darker interior of the barn difficult to make out. If she wanted to look clearly, she'd have to step inside.
Feeling in the back of her head that it'd be a pretty bad idea to do so, and with every instinct on her telling her to set a shield on the door (the only way in and out), and then fly away to get reinforcements. Instead, she steeled herself to go inside, even more so when a soft, golden shine caught her attention inside the barn.
Just a short distance away from the door was the other guard, seemingly passed out... or even lifelessly in the middle of the barn. Twilight had to help him! If she could help him, then she'd definitely make sure to do her best to do so. Never again would she flee while others suffered because of her ineptitude.
As soon as she set a hoof inside the barn, she instantly noticed, and then confirmed her fears had become true... the Caribou had escaped! They were nowhere to be seen!
Almost instantly, she leaned down and used her magic to check on the guard before her hooves, confirming to her deep relief that he was indeed awake. But with a nasty gash on the side of his head. She'd definitely need to take him to the hospital as soon as possible.
She was already preparing a spell to teleport both of them away from them when she suddenly heard something else... clapping... but not like the clapping of hands... that one was different. It sounded... distant... way too distant... but at the same time, it sounded inside the barn.
Preparing her stones, she immediately got ready for any attack that could come at her. After several moments that could have as well lasted an eternity for her, no traps were set and no caribou appeared before her. Instead, that strange clapping continued, making her curious as to what it was.
Curiosity seemed to take the best out of her as she got up and cautiously began to move forward, deeper into the barn. Before she could notice, the clapping began to grow in volume, letting her know she was getting close to the source of the sound... until she finally heard something else... moaning. A female moaning, to be precise.
Twilight quickly located the source, which was behind some bales near of her. As soon as she noticed it, she quickly hid behind another stack when she saw a figure moving behind the stacks from which the noise could be heard. Her eyes widened in shock as she saw it... one of the captured caribou... and he was masturbating!
Twilight thanked whatever deity that could be out there, because the Caribou seemed to be deeply distracted by something at the other side of the bales, something that she could not see at all... at least not from her current angle.
She somehow felt a deep wish to look, to see what had that caribou, and seemingly another one behind him so interested... her horn lit with magic as she made the bale before her float only a short distance from the floor as to not make any noise, and then begin to move it slowly around, trying to stay as quiet as possible. Once she was sure she was at a good angle, did she finally dare to peek out from her hiding place. Her eyes widened in shock, and she had to make a good effort at not gasping loudly when she saw what was happening...
The mare that the rune master had brought with him was in the middle of a group of Caribou, getting brutally slammed from everywhere. One of them was laying on his back with the mare laying on top of him in the same way, all while the Caribou held the mare's ass while he thrusted up, while another one was directly behind her, thrusting into her as well. Thought it seemed like that wasn't enough for the others, as one was raping her mouth and another one seemed to be thrusting his huge, brown cock between her breasts. Even her hands were being used by the brutes, with a pair of Caribou holding her hands and making her jerk them off.
The lewd clapping had now turned into a loud slapping, as each one of them was using her as hard as they could. Twilight had to hold a hand against her mouth as to not let a hot pant escape her mouth as she watched such scene. Was that what they all did to every female they captured?
The memory of the dream... or more like induced nightmare about what they did to Celestia, Luna and Cadence came back to her mind... that was definitely not the worst thing they could do to a female, of course... but it was still barbaric, horrific and cruel!
And she suddenly noticed something else... something that filled with both, anger and fear. She was soaked! How could something so terrible make her wet and excited!?
She had only taken her eyes off of the caribou for a moment, to inspect if what she was feeling was true... but it was enough to notice all the caribou were going even harder on the poor mare, with all of them starting to pant quicker and louder, until two of them let out a loud grunt of lust before the poor mare in the middle of them let out a loud yet muffled moan due to the cock she had in her mouth. Though that same moan turned into a gurgled scream when the one in her mouth also grunted. twilight instantly noticed some of that thick, and seemingly heavy sperm escaping from the corners of the mare's mouth.
Twilight panted hotly behind her hand, almost crying when she saw that...
"Poor mare..." She whispered softly, gritting her teeth after a few moments when she saw it, having to lean back and hide once more behind the bale while sobbing softly to herself, with a tear threatening to escape from her eyes when she heard some of the caribou rushing towards the made, almost pushing the other caribou away in order to "have their turn".
Twilight was at the verge of crying at such a scene. Obviously due to what she had just seen... such a terrible, obscene and cruel act... but in reality, she was also at the verge of crying because deep inside her, a heat was rising. One that seemed to burn hotter and hotter with every moment she replayed the scene in her mind... she was getting turned on by such acts!
Hating herself, she slowly began to move a hand down to her clothed breasts, having to cover her mouth when only a mere rub on her breasts sent her moaning... Slowly, she moved her hand down her body until it was at the hem of her skirt. She was absolutely loathing herself when she slid her fingers softly down her skirt... and then began to pull on it until her panties were revealed... and also revealing her already soaked pussy and dripping arousal.
Another grunt could be heard from one of the caribou, earning a cheer from the other caribou before another one said that it was his turn with her puppies.
Twilight did not want to look again... she hated the idea of only peeking around to watch the poor mare suffering yet another raping... and she hated the moment when she had to get into an awkward position to peek from behind the bale, and leaving her buttocks completely exposed... all while rubbing softly a finger against her clothed pussy.
As she peeked from her hiding place, she had a clear view of the mare's stuffed and semen leaking pussy before it was covered by another one of the caribou. Most of the mare's body was covered by a wall of brown fur only leaving the mare's leg visible, which dangled almost lifelessly at the same rhythm as the one thrusting into her pussy, making it look as if she was having a seizure of sorts.
The thought sent a deep tingle of pleasure down twilight's spine... making her wonder quickly why such a thought made her insides tingle with desire. Did she really enjoy watching a mare almost having a stroke due to so much pleasure!?
She tried to look away from the mare, which proved to be fruitless, as her eyes were instead focused on the thick, cum stained cocks of the other caribou around the mare. Her eyes seemed to follow the movement of their hands, and even the soft bouncing of the tips in the air, making yet another tingle of pleasure to run down her body. She found herself unable to tear her eyes away from the cock she was looking at the moment, making her pants become hotter behind her mouth, all while her finger began to rub faster and harder against her panties.
Twilight was truly unable to tear her eyes away from their cocks, with every successful attempt instantly turning into a failure as she looked at yet another cock. Everywhere she looked there was another cock bobbing, some already spewing the foul and thick cum onto the floor before them, and others becoming soft for a few moments before coming back to life only a few moments later right before her eyes. They were still taking turns with the poor mare between them, constantly flooding her insides or coating her in their foul semen... and Twilight was rubbing her pussy even harder through her panties!
At one moment, she finally felt herself going off, using all of her will to not moan loudly when her climax came, simply releasing a muffled whimper of pleasure and then everything went silent... she was seeing stars... and her ears had a soft buzzing on them... almost as if she had been hit with stunning spell... and then reality came back with a heavy thud when her face hit the floor. She had made a mistake... and one that she immediately regretted when she heard all of the caribou stopping abruptly their debauchery and finally going silent for several moments.
She knew it... she had screwed up... they had seen her... She turned her head weakly towards their direction, needing confirmation as if what she was thinking was true... and instantly wished she hadn't done so... all of them had stopped, and all of them were looking in her direction... all of them were staring directly into her eyes.
And instantly, she prepared for the worst when she heard one single command from one of them before all the chaos started.
"... GET HER!"
Twilight's mind was already a mess, suddenly finding herself in such a horrible situation... her clothes had been taken away from her, and then tore apart before her eyes as one of the caribou mockingly said "clothes aren't for females". Not only that, but she had been put in a similar situation as the mare from before.
Her eyes turned to the mare, who was laying on her side. What little could be seen from her face was obscured by her mane... and she wasn't moving. And now... Twilight was in the same position!
She could have used her pony strength to kick or punch them away... she could have used her pegasus wings to fly away from their reach... she could have used her unicorn magic to stun them and run away! Then, why was she in such a position!?
Somehow, in the back of her mind, she already knew the answer... it was what she wanted from the beginning... and she hated such thoughts.
"Just look at her! She's a moaning mess already!"
And it was true, much to her own disgrace. She had never felt such pleasure... unwanted, filthy and horrible as the act was... but she was experiencing so much... her own thoughts were difficult to make, only being able to feel how every cock was pushed inside her, or against her hands and breasts. In fact, they all had taken it one step further, and while her mouth was left free for the moment, several cocks were being slapped, rubbed and pushed against her face!
Once again, everything she could see was their cocks... and not only that... she could also smell them, sometimes taste them, all while her lower holes were being raped by a pair of caribou, then filled to the brim with their filthy semen... and then quickly be replaced by another two caribou.
And all the while... she was moaning so loud... there was no doubt... she was enjoying it... perhaps a bit too much.
"Yeah! This slut was born to take cock! She isn't even resisting!" Another one, probable one pounding her holes, said with a mocking laugh at the end... and Twilight shamefully admitted it was true.
She wasn't tired... she wasn't strained... she could fully resist and fight back... but she did not want to. Instead, she found herself slowly moving her hands in time with the caribou's movements, and even her tongue shyly began to get out of her mouth to finally take in a taste of one of those obscenely big cocks...
Twilight let out a single tear fall from her eyes when she realized it... and found herself hating herself for it... she was liking it... she was liking the fact that she was being raped... and she loved the feeling! Not only the intense, not to say brutal pounding they were giving her... but also all the humilliating comments they were constantly sending her, making her feel even hotter and hotter, as if every insult they sent was clouding her head...
And then, another one came into her, making her release not a moan, but actually a scream of pleasure, feeling as if her eyes and ears stopped working for a few moments, and leaving her legs a shaking, trembling mess...
And then, when she finally recovered, she noticed she had been laid in the middle of all the caribou, who were instead jerking off all around her... Twilight knew what was about to happen... and she did nothing to stop them as they all began to shoot what was left of their seed all over her body. Instead, she simply stared onto the infinite, wondering exactly what was wrong with her. How had she gotten herself into such a mess?
Suddenly, she recovered a bit of clarity when she looked at her hands, finally noticing a bright, glowing ring around it of a bright, deep blue energy... it had been Luna's spell to protect her dreams... But why was she able to see it?
Twilight's brilliant mind instantly made the connections, sending a tingle or pure fear down her whole body while the world around her began to crack and then get sucked into some sort of void in the distance.
That was a dream... or more like a nightmare... but if her dreams were still protected from any influence of Dainn... then why did she have such dreams in the first place?
There was only one explanation...
The spell protected her from any outside influence... but what about the inner influence? That dream... that nightmare hadn't been caused by anypony else... but her. Her own subconscious mind...
Still in puddle caused by the copious amount of semen, both deposited inside her or plastered into her body, she curled herself into a tight ball... all while screams in the distance began to sound. Screams that seemed to get closer and closer, and all the while calling out for her.
"Princess Twilight!"
"Princess Twilight! Are you okay!?"
"Princess Twilight!"
Twilight gasped when she opened her eyes once more, finding the faces of three guards who were looking at her with a concerned expression. Looking down, she noticed she had fallen asleep and had fallen off of the log. Just a short distance away from her, the chest plate she had been investigating laid on the floor.
Almost instantly, she got up quickly, almost bumping her head against one of the guards', panting as if she had just run a marathon.
"The Caribou! They got loose!" She began to scream before running towards the barn, leaving three very concerned guards behind. Just before she could throw herself at the doors of the barn, she stopped when she noticed the bar was back in its place, securing everything inside once more.
"Princess? Are you truly sure you are alright?"
Twilight looked around in a panic, trying to gather her thoughts while she looked around... and then she remembered Luna's band around her wrist. Looking down, she was glad it wasn't visible. That was not a dream.
"Y-Yes... i-i... I think i just fell asleep and... had a nightmare..."
Twilight tried to explain quickly, suddenly starting to feel dizzy and already feeling the urge to throw up building up inside her. One of the guards was already reaching out to her before Twilight felt herself at her limit. She simply turned away from him and ran as fast as she could, trying to find a place where she could hide, as to not be seen like that.
And yet, even after she was done, feeling her stomach empty, dizzy, and completely weak... she was still feeling nauseous. The memory of what she had just dreamed kept repeating over and over, making her feel even worse as the moments passed by.
Finally, she began to feel the world's gravity take a hold of her, feeling how she was falling on her side slowly, like a recently cut tree leaning on its side until it fell flatly on the world.
She could see on the distance how the guards were running towards her, knowing full well they would not be able to catch her... and yet, the only thought on her mind, as she remembered once more the dream, was:
"I am... so disgusting..."
