----
>Night has fallen in Equestria, as you take a seat in the master chair of your base of operations.
>You check the time that's dimly lit on your computer screen in front of you.
>11:45pm.
>Almost there.
>Every night, it was the same routine.
>When the sun is out, your home has enough power to run your basic needs and get by.
>However, at night, your solar power doesn't work...
>Which forces you to rely on a battery that is safely protected in your basement.
>You wouldn't need a battery if they didn't change.
>With a shudder, you check the cameras of your security system.
>The coast is clear around your home.
>Nothing inside and nothing outside.
>At night, the lovable ponies of Equestria... changed.
>It was like flipping a light switch.
>First, they would be cute, lovable and sensitive.
>Then... the would be come raving monsters, hell bent on getting in your pants.
>Every man's dream? Right?
>The first few nights weren't quite so bad.
>You check the clock and sip on your coffee, carefully jumping from camera feed to camera feed.
>Then, as time dragged on, all you wanted to do was cuddle.
>Was that so much to ask?
>Apparently to the little beasts... it was.
>So now here you are, guarding your home with technology that simply shouldn't even exist in this world.
>You watch the clock hit midnight and you hit the switch on your battery backup.
>The percentage gauge lights up on your control panel, dimly showing 100% charge remaining.
"Here we go." You mutter under your breath.
>The hair on the back of your neck stand up straight and your ears perk up.
>The safest place in your home was right here.
>To your left and to your right, there were hallways, providing you an escape in either direction.
>You placed cameras everywhere so that there weren't any blind spots.
>Starting with the cameras inside, you start a rotation.
>Kitchen - Clear.
>Living Room - Clear.
>Bedroom - Clear.
>Bathroom - Clear.
>Hey, you can't be too careful.
>You gotta cover all your bases.
>Even if it means video taping yourself taking a dump.
>Next you check your remaining cameras.
>Backyard - Clear.
>Westside - Clear.
>Eastside - Clear.
>Front-
>You leap back in your chair as a yellow demon with pink butterfiles on her chair stares directly into your camera with a smile.
>"I'm coming iin, Anon," she chants.
>Okay, Anon.
>Keep it together.
>Normal protocol.
>Only the doors to the left and to the right of you can be locked.
>Watching the camera carefully, Fluttershy places her hoof on the handle of the door and presses herself inside.
>Quickly, you snap to the Living Room and watch her enter.
>Alright, Fluttershy is a slow mover, you should still be able to look around.
>Living Room - Flutters.
>Kitchen - Clear.
>Bathroom - Clear.
>Snapping to the Bedroom, you find a purple unicorn spreading herself wide to the camera.
>"Like what you see Anon?" she giggles.
>You snap to the living room again, but the channel flips back to Twilight.
>"Watch me Anon..."
>Mashing the button for the Living room, the screen goes black.
"Shit... Shit..." you mutter, frantically searching for your flashlight.
>The screen blinks back to life and shows your bedroom, empty.
"Fuck. Fuck!" you say, pushing the buttons.
>Living Room - Still Fluttershy.
>Bathroom - Nothing
>Kitchen - Still nothing.
>Left Hallway - Empty.
>Which means.
>"There you are Anon~"
>Your fist slams into the button controlling the door to your right and your anti-magic steel-reinforced door slams down.
>A chill runs down your spine as you hear her hoof slam agains the door.
>"Nonny~ Open the dooor. Please?" she begs.
>Fuuuck that.
>You turn back to the hallway camera where Twilight sits patiently, as if waiting for the door to magically open.
>Sighing to yourself, you check the clock.
>1 AM and 85% power left.
>Still in good shape.
>Just 5 hours left.
>Right Hallway - Twilight.
>Left Hallway - Empty.
>Bathroom - Empty
>Bedroom - Fluttershy rifling through your underwear.
>Shaking your head, you move back to the Living Room camera.
>The door to the outside stands wide open.
>That's weird, Fluttershy closed it earlier...
>Was it Twilight?
>Probably not.
>She usually used her magic to get in.
>That's when there is a rustle from the corner of the room.
>Your eyes strain to see what's on the tiny monitor...
>Then you gasp, wheeling back in your chair.
>Your eyes are affixed firmly on a pink pony with curly hair, covered in latex and wearing night vision goggles.
>Pinkie Pie.
>Trembling, you check the right hallway again.
>Empty.
>Twilight must have moved on.
>Opening the right door, to conserve power, you decide to check inside one more time.
>Bedroom - Flutters.
>Kitchen - Twilight.
>Living Room - Pinks.
>Bathroom - Empty.
>Checking outside, you quickly flip through the outside cameras.
>Looks like the usuals are here... but normally you have a forth...
>You suppose you shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth.
>The next hour moves slowly, but painfully as you check each camera for the movement of the ponies outside.
>Pinkie seemed to jump between rooms, no matter how far apart they were.
>Twilight stopped and talked to Fluttershy, and you could hear their whispers about a plan.
>It set you even more on edge, normally they weren't organized.
>Normally they would simply hop from room to room and attempt to keep you off guard.
>No... tonight... they seemed to have a rhythm.
>There was something different.
>You promptly shut the doors when you had to, but all in all, it was a good night.
>4am and 60% power left.
>You got this.
>That's when all three met in the living room.
>"Is it time?" Pinkie asked?
>Twilight and Fluttershy nodded their heads.
>You inspected the camera to the Living Room as the three girls then began to give each other signs and nods.
>They had a code?!
>Shit.
>Kitchen, Bedroom, Bathroom - Clear.
>Living Room - The three.
>Hallways - Clear.
>Backyard --- !?!
>Your gut drops as you watch a tall alicorn stepping out of the darkness and moving around your home.
>An... An Alicorn?
>I-is your system even equipped to handle this?
>You flip back to the Living room, where the girls sit patiently for their guest.
>Jumping to the front door camera, you remotely flicker the porch light.
>Purple and pink streaked hair and pink fur is illuminated in the dark of the night.
>Cadance.
>It had to be Cadance.
>Yet for some reason, you aren't really surprised.
>Not because this is a story written by Flutterpriest, but rather since Celestia is usually taking care of the sun and Luna takes care of the moon.
>She was the only... 'available' princess.
>Kinda.
>The alicorn steps inside your home and the three ponies bow to her deeply.
>"Good Morning-"
>"Where is he?" Cadance quickly interrupts Pinkie.
>"In the back of the two hallways... every time we try to get back there, he slams the door on us," Twilight elaborates.
>"Hmm... Can he close both at the same time?" Cadance asks.
>"Mhm," Fluttershy answers. "We tried rushing them both last night and it didn't work."
>"How does he make it work?" Cadance asks.
>She walks up to one of the cameras and stares directly into it.
>"I'm not sure," Twilight answers. "It's something even I don't know about."
"Yes!" You exclaim.
>The four turn to look at you and you promptly clamp your mouth.
>"I see... Have you tried... waiting him out?"
>You check the clock.
>4:30AM and 50% battery.
>You got this.
>"Go directly to the doors and just wait outside."
"Wait, what?"
>"OOh! I like this plan!" Pinkie exclaims.
>Suddenly she pops out of view.
>SHIT.
>"Hi Nonny~ Can I-"
>Reflexively you slam the left door.
>"Uhm... is being scared your-"
>Immediately, you slam the right door shut as well.
>Taking a deep breath, you lean back in your chair.
>The ponies pound their hooves against the door.
>"Let me in Nonny!" Pinkie cries.
>"Uhm... Would you open this door so I can make forceful love to you? Please?" Fluttershy moans from the other side of the door.
>"Let us in, Anon..." Twilight calls from Pinkie's side.
>Cadance continues to stare at you through the computer monitor and a smile forms on her face.
>Her brow furrows in triumph.
>"Don't stop watching me, Anon..." She whispers into the camera.
>The pounding from the other side of the steel doors intensifies.
>You watch Cadance carefully and check the time.
>5AM.
>40% left and dropping fast.
>What's going on?!
>A blue glow emits from Cadance's horn.
>The battery meter immediately drops to 20%.
>Your body goes numb as you begin to tremble.
>N-no.
>This isn't fair.
>This isn't how this is supposed to work at all.
>"You better not stop watching me, Anon~" Cadance whispers again.
>The knocks on the door suddenly cease.
>All is quiet in your security room as the violet eyes of the alicorn peer into your soul.
>If you keep both doors closed, you are going to run out of power.
>This was it.
>This was her end game.
>The cunning of an Alicorn.
>You look at both doors with dread.
>At least one will have to be opened in order for you to not run out of power.
>Turning to the left one, you lean in closely to the door to perform your Pinkie test.
>Clearing your throat, you hum melodically.
"Shave and a hair cut..."
>You listen closely.
>Just barely audible on the other side, you can make out a voice.
>"Two bits."
>WHELP. YOU AIN'T OPENING THAT.
>NOPE!
>Cadance giggles into your screen.
>10%
>5:30AM.
>You aren't going to make it at this rate.
>There's only one solution.
>You're going to have to check the right hallway camera.
>Maybe if you do it quick, the Princess won't notice.
>You hover your hand over the buttons.
>It'll be quick.
>*Click* Right Hallway - Clear
>You open the door quickly to save power.
>*Click* Living Room - Clear.
>Clear.
>Empty.
>The room becomes much colder as the screen in front of you glows with a light blue light.
>The battery gauge in front of you quickly depletes to zero and instead of a red 'empty battery' light, a light blue heart appears.
>The doors shoot open beside you and you back up against the wall.
>Everything in the room goes black as you scramble for the flashlight on your waist.
>The sound of slowly approaching footsteps moves through the right hallway.
>With a click, your flashlight roars to life.
>Flashing it out into the hallway, it quickly is tossed out of your hands with a cyan magic.
>"Thanks for letting me into your humble home, Anon..." Cadance whispers, approaching you.
>Blue magic pushes you against the wall and illuminates the Princess's bright violet eyes.
>"But I warned you to keep your eye on me," She whispers malevolently.
