Shadows of the Past
\tIt was a gloomy night in Ponyville. Most houses were locked up tight, prepared for a storm that was scheduled to come rolling in. It was at this time, the purple unicorn known as Twilight Sparkle was too preparing for the bad weather. She had just finished sealing up the windows, her horn glowing faintly with the last traces of magic from her work, in the upper part of the library which served as her home. Her little dragon assistant Spike was downstairs, finishing up with the window’s on the main level when suddenly there was a knock at the door.
Spike groaned and shook his head. “Twilight! Someone’s at the door!”
“Well then answer it Spike! I am busy up here.”
The purple dragon grumbled as he walked to the barred door. He was too tired for this, having spent the entire day doing chores to make sure their home was secure. When he managed to open the heavy wood door he fell back in shock, and fright. Lightly had flashed just as he opened the door fully, shadowing a mare that stood there. He was in so much shock that he passed out. The mare in question leaned forward, a look of concern on her dark blue face. “Tis not the welcome we were expecting.”
It was none other than Princess Luna. Her flowing mane shimmered a bit as she stepped into the library. Before, during the last Nightmare Night, she had made a grand entrance with her specialized royal guards. But this night she was alone, even wearing a cloak to hide her wings and body. At this time Twilight was coming down the stairs and meeped seeing the princess…and the fainted spike.
“Eep! Princess Luna! I uh…what brings you here?” She quickly used her magic to move her assistant out of the way and onto his bed.
“Greetings Twilight Sparkle, I came…to ask for your assistance in a very…personal matter.”
“Oh, oh no problem princess. Please have a seat while I shut the door.”
Luna shifted and sat by a large stack of books and watched as the unicorn relock the main entrance. Twilight smiled sweetly and looked at her mentor’s younger sister. “So Princess Luna, what can I do for you?”
“Its…about someone I lost years ago Twilight Sparkle. I wish to know what became of them.”
“Princess?”
“Allow me to explain. This person…was dear to me, a young colt I cared for with all my heart, even when I was…Nightmare Moon.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The sun shone brightly over the palace deep within the Everfree forest. Many ponies were going about their duties, cleaning, gardening, even cooking in the large kitchen. The royal guards were stationed outside the main entrance, keeping a watchful eye out for any creatures that threatened the home of their royal charges. They were about to charge when they saw a cloaked figured come into the light from the forest but halted when their hood fell back. It was a black Pegasus colt with a deep red mane. Both guards knew him well…as the personal guard of Princess Luna.
“Equanox…about time you returned. Where have you been?” One guard asked with a slight tilt of his head.
The black Pegasus in question sighed and looked at him. “I was on a mission for the princess…that is all you need to know.” And with that he walked into the palace, the guards knowing better than to question him further.
Equanox slowly walked down the halls of the palace. He was greeted warmly by the ponies that worked and lived there. He smiled to himself, happy to be home. He quickly made his way to the throne room, he had to make his report. Once there he slowly walked in and knelt down. “My princess I have returned.”
It was not Princess Celestia there that morn, but Princess Luna. Her sister was busy with other tasks so she had taken up the job of dealing with those that came into the court for advice or other small matters. She smiled brightly seeing her champion had finally returned home. “Thou may rise Equanox. Please…tell us of thy journey.”
“It was…uneventful my princess. I did manage to strike a treaty with the zebra folk. They have offered to teach us of their medicines and herbal treatments in exchange for commerce and trade between us and them.”
“Very good.” She looked to the door and locked it tight, making sure no one would walk in on them. Luna then walked slowly from the throne towards the Pegasus. Once she was face to face with him, she pressed her lips to his, kissing the colt deeply. A kiss which he reciprocated. He had become more than just a royal guard to the princess long ago. He had become a lover, her lover. It had happened a dark night when he defended her against a pair of manticor which ended with the “X” shaped scar on his left shoulder.
After a few moments, he pulled back a little catching his breath. “Princess…oh how I missed you. I hurried back as fast as my wings would carry me just to be by your side again.” He said with a slight blush to his cheeks.
Luna giggled and nuzzled him affectionately. “And I you my black stallion. The nights have been so cold without you by my side.”
At this, Equanox’s blush deepened to match his mane’s color. This made Luna giggle and move to stand beside him, nudging the colt with her rump. “Calm thyself Equanox. We are alone in this chamber.”
“I know princess but…I uh…”
“Thou hath not had pleasure since the night before the left. The same goes for us. We…I have missed you.” She had a coy smile on her face as she licked the Pegasus’s neck slowly.
Equanox shivered and felt his lust rising. He could smell her arousal already. She was eager and her sweet scent had begun to fill to room the moment he entered. The smell caused his body to warm up, his male hood expand and slowly reveal his equine member. Luna cooed seeing this reaction. Shifting a bit she licked down his side to his flank. Gazing upon his malehood she gave it a slow, wet lick from tip to balls, making the Pegasus moan loud.
Equanox shifted his weight a bit, lifting a leg to give his princess easier access to his member which she eagerly began to suck upon. She took it slow, starting with the tip, suckling upon the flared head and gulping down the sweet pre that had begun to flow. She savored the taste for a time then began to take more of his shaft into her muzzle and throat. Finally she had taken him down to the balls, making the colt’s legs shake. Grinning wide she sucked, bobbing her head fast as she gave him a blowjob to match her eagerness.
Equanox grunted and moaned, feeling his seed beginning to boil. He was close to cumming and let out a snort indicating such like. Luna could feel him stiffen and smiled wide. She relaxed her throat and waited for her treat. She didn’t need to wait long for he came hard, shooting a massive quantity of equine seed down her to her hungry gullet. She drank every last drop and once he was done pulled off with a soft pop. Luna then licked her lips clean right in front of him, making him blush.
“Now it’s our turn.” Luna said with a coy smile. She moved around the black Pegasus and presented her flank to his hungry gaze. Equanox gulped seeing her tail life, revealing a dripping, dark blue furred, sex.
His mouth began to water as Luna began to wiggle her hips. “Don’t thou wish to drink of my royal challis?”
Equanox nodded eagerly and dove in. His lips and tongue began to delve deep into her hind quarters. Luna gasped and moaned happily, pressing her flank to his hungry lips. She adored the attention he gave her royal flesh. Luna had learned of such pleasures from the other mare’s, and even from spying on her elder sister. His tongue delved deep into her dripping sex, she even shifted positions, laying on her back, to allow him better access to her moist hole. He soon began eating with gusto, nibbling on her clit lightly as he worked her innards. Her hoof moved to his mane, messing it up as he licked.
“Oh yes! Please my royal flesh! Oh Equanox…my beloved!” Luna cried out between loud moans.
It was not long before she cried out and began to shake. Luna’s cunt lips spasmed as she came hard. Her pussy squirting all over the colt’s face and neck. But that didn’t stop him from drinking down her nectar like it was water and he had not drank any in weeks. He gulped down all he could, savoring how sweet it was, like fresh apples. Equanox then resumed licking and nibbling, wanting to make his beloved princess moan more for him.
Soon the tongue was no longer enough. Luna craved more, she craved his “cock” as the mare’s had called it. She pushed his head away and gave him a big smile. “Come Equanox…pleasure your princess properly.”
The Pegasus didn’t need to be asked twice. He eagerly got up above her, his cock fully hard and dripping slightly with need once more. He had gotten excited while tasting her sweet flesh. He gingerly, and yet gently, pushed into her folds, exciting a lustful moan from the princess. He then began to thrust in and out, moaning as he felt her hot and tight folds around his shaft. This was heaven for the colt. No matter how many times they did it, she was always tight.
Luna moaned and grunted, her eyes closed as she felt every inch slide in and out of her eager cunt lips and hit the entrance to her womb. She loved how he treated her. Not as a princes, but more like an equal. His thrusts were slow, but forceful, hitting all her sweet spots as he grunted with each thrust. His pelvis even began rubbing against her clit, sending shivers of delight through-out her body. He soon began to speed up, and managed to force his cock deeper, forcing himself into her womb.
Luna meeped as she felt his thrusts become more rappid. She cried out in delight, her hungry sex gripping tightly around her lover’s member. She could not take his pounding any longer, her body still sensitive from his earlier administrations. Wrapping her hooves around his body, Luna came once again, her pussy juices squirting all over his lower legs. “Fill me! Fill my royal womb with your potent seed!”
Equanox didn’t need to be asked since he was on the verge himself. The sudden increase in tightness was enough to finish him, making the Pegasus shove in as deep as he could. He filled the princess with every last drop of seed his balls had in them, making her belly bloat. She cried out in bliss, having another orgasm as he filled her.
Soon he pulled away panting, his cock going slightly limp. “Oh princess…how I missed you.” He smiled and knelt beside her, nuzzling Luna affectionately.
Princess Luna giggled and nuzzled him back. “And I you…my beloved Equanox.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It had been several months since Equanox had returned from his mission. He spent his days relaxing, and training new recruits into the royal guard. His nights were spent in the embrace of Princess Luna. They were almost always together, that was unless she had royal business to attend to. But the last few days had been…unusual. He had noticed how upset Luna seemed. He did his best to calm her, to lighten the burden of the stressed caused by the work she did for all Equestria. And yet…he feared that his actions were not enough.
It was one night, just after their nightly escapades. She was cleaning his tool with her tongue, adoring the sweet taste of his seed and her juices mixed together. Plus she didn’t wish for it to drip all over the floor. “Equanox…I have an important task for you, though I am nervous about sending you out on this mission.”
He raised a brow and bowed slightly. “My dearest you know I am strong. I can handle anything.”
She smiled brightly hearing this. It always made her feel safe. “There are rumors of a strange menace out in the frontier. Settler ponies have been attacked and it seems to be moving towards the sea side. I want you to intercept and stop it.”
“Yes princess…” With that he stood up.
He was about to leave when she stopped and kissed him deeply. “Return swiftly...and safely my beloved. You are the rock that keeps me steady.”
He smiled brightly and nodded. “I shall princess. Do not fear. This is an easy task for me.”
“I know…and I shall be counting the days until your return.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The day’s past and she waited eagerly for his return. She kept a constant watch for any sign of Equanox. All they while her stress gathered from feeling jealous of her sister and all the attention the ponies gave the daylight she brought.
Just a month after he had gone, Luna’s anger bubbled over and she became Nightmare Moon, which ended with her being sealed away on the moon. But Equanox never returned. Celestia had sent many ponies out looking for him, worried that something bad had happened and yet they could find no trace of their friend. With a heavy heart, Celestia listed Equanox as missing in action in the royal records.
The bright white mare sat on the throne, looking out the window at the night sky as she watched the moon rise. “Oh Equanox…I do hope you don’t return. I don’t want to tell you what became of my sister…of your beloved Luna.”
She knew of their passion, having spied by accident…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As Princess Luna finished her tale, Twilight’s looked dumfounded. The young pony’s face was a mix of surprise and embarrassment. She wished that the princess was not so…vivid in her descriptions of the things her and Equanox had done together. Clearing her throat she looked upon Luna’s sad face. “And you think…that the mission you sent him on might have caused his death?”
Luna nodded slowly, tears streaming down her cheek. “Aye…I do Twilight Sparkle. And I wish I didn’t send him on that fool’s errand. If he had stayed…I might not have become Nightmare Moon. I would not have been banished to the moon for a thousand years. I would have had a family with him. Oh I wanted that soo badly.”
“Princess…do not worry. I am sure we can find something out about him. I am Princess Celestia’s prize pupil after all. ” She said with utter confidence.
Luna smiled brightly, the tears stopping as she felt how confident the purple unicorn was. “Oh thank you Twilight Sparkle. I appreciate this so much.”
“Anytime princess. Now we will need to know a few things…like his last known location?”
“That I know all too well. I searched there myself but found nothing. Perhaps maybe you can find something I missed. He was last seen…just outside Phillydelphia.”
“Okay.” Twilight said softly. She quickly gathered up books on the area. History, myths, maps, everything she could think of she grabbed. She began to flip through them, and Luna could tell that this was gonna be a very long night.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A few days past and Luna waited patiently. Both Twilight and Spike worked as long as they could, searching every book they could find in the library. But…so far all they found were vague references to a black Pegasus that had saved the ponies there from some sort of monster. No clear evidence as to what had transpired or how the fight ended. It was beginning to seem hopeless when inspiration came from an unlikely source.
A knock came from the door of the library. Both Twilight and Spike were too engrossed in the books to notice so it came down the Princess Luna to answer. She magically opened the door to reveal a bright orange pony wearing a cowboy hat. “Uh…pardon the interruption but ah was wonderin’ if ya’ll needed a change of pace?”
“What does’t thou have in mind?” Luna asked with a raise of her brow.
“Welp…seeing is how ya’ll are looking into history and junk…maybe a fresh way of thinkin’ would come in handy."
"Applebloom told meh that Zecora has lots of books ya’ll don’t have here so maybe…”
“Maybe she has information we don’t! Oh Applejack you are a genious!” Twilight exclaimed happily.
“Forgive me but…whom is this Zecora?”
“She is the Zebra you saw at the last Nightmare Night celebration. She lives out in the Everfree forest were she makes potions to help ponies with different ailments.” Spike chipped in.
“And thou thinks she may be able to help?”
All three of them nodded. “Ah recon that if anyone can help…it would be Zecora.”
“Then what are we waiting for? Let us be off to visit this Zecora!” Luna exclaimed as she spread her wings wide.
With Applejack tagging along, the four of them trotted off into the Everfree Forest, heading straight for the home of Zecora.
