The Fluffy Factory: Matriarch (2/2)

>Your name is...
>Do you have a name?
>All you know is that you're a fluffy pony.
>Your leggies are red, so you must be red too.
>You feel floppy things on your back.  Your brain tells you they're wingies.
>You are lying in a very comfortable thing.  It's soft and white and warm.
>Everything smells very pretty, including you.
>However, your head holder feels funny.  A lot of you hurts, but it's not too bad.
>You try to climb out of the soft thing and look around, but you're too big to move.
>You're in a box that's partially invisible.
>You can see two humans!
>One is standing up.
>Your brain says that one is Mister.
>The other is sitting behind a shiny thing with a clear top.
>Your brain says you know her too, but it can't remember what to call her.
>They're talking, using lots of big words.
>Their voices are quiet and soothing, so you just relax and listen for a while.
>The sitting lady talks.  ”Tiffany knocked her out, but she didn't suffer that much damage.  She was too fat.  It was like punching a pillow.”
>Mister talks now.  ”Is Tiffany the reason she was having so many stillbirths?”
>”I can't prove it, but the vet said it's likely.  She had some old wounds hiding under her fluff.”
>Things hiding in your fluff?  You try to look down, only to see that a lot of your tummy fluff is gone.
>”And the vet didn't bring up her not-pregnancy?”
>The purple fluff lady smiles a smile that makes you a little scared.
>”My little fluffy factory is responsible for half of her business.  She doesn't ask questions.”
>”What are you gonna do to Tiffany?”
>”Until I figure out how many other mares she's fucked up under my nose, she stays up here.  I'll move her to the grooming shop so I can keep an eye on her myself.”
>”And what about Cherry?”
>Who is Cherry?  Your brain starts tingling...
>Cherry is you!
>You're very excited as you start remembering more things.
>Your name is Cherry, and you're full of babies.
>You can't wait to see the babies, to love and hug them.
“Chewwy wan' babehs!”
>The humans look at you.
>The one with purple fluff comes over.
>”Hey, you're awake.  How do you feel?”
“Chewwy sweepy.  When Chewwy haf babehs?  Wan' wuv!”
>She just smiles at you and walks back to the shiny thing.
>”I don't know what to do with her, either.”
>”We need four pegasus feeders. Tundra and Ice are making a lot of winged foals lately.”
>”I'll ask Tiff if she still has that pink mare that pissed on Zuikaku.  If not, we can grab one out of the foal stock.”
>Grab a baby?  That's bad, grabbing hurts tiny babies!
“No gwab, huwt babeh!”
>”Don't worry about it, Cherry.  I guess she can stay in my office for now.”
>You can stay here!  That makes you happy.  It's warm and soft and smells pretty.
>When you start thinking, the word 'feeder' makes you very nervous. You stay quiet, though.
>You think you got owwies for crying, so you try not to do that, either.
>”How long do you think she'll be this size?” Mister asks.
>”Who knows.  I've never tried to undo a feeder mare before.”
>Mister must be asking when your babies are coming, too.
>Everyone is excited for your babies!
>You remember the bad babies too, but they're not here.
>Purple fluff lady must have saved you from them, and the other lady with yellow fluff that was giving you owwies.
>Now your babies can have all the milk they want.
>You sing happily, but quietly, to them.
>Mister looks over at you again, then smiles at the purple fluff lady.
>”Keeping her in here?  Look at you, it's almost like you've got a heart.”
>Purple fluff lady makes a weird smile.  It's not scary, but it seems strange.
>”It wasn't her fault, after all...and I could use the karma points, I guess.”
>The humans leave, but the one with purple fluff comes back and brings two blue fluffies with head-thingies, then leaves again.
>The new fluffies both look the same!  You're confused at first.
“New fwiends?”
>They both nod.
>”Mommy say Sho-Sho stay wif Chewwy, make suwe Chewwy okay!”
>”Zwee gif huggies to Chewwy!”
>They can't get into your box, though.  It makes the three of you sad.
>The blue fluffies start to play and run around, which makes you even sadder.
“Chewwy wan' pway!  Chewwy wan' wun!”
>One of the fluffies blinks at you, then runs out of the room yelling for mommy.
>Purple fluff lady returns.  She must be their mommy.
>”Zui, Cherry doesn't feel well.  She has to stay in her cage for now.”
>”Chewwy sad, mommy!  Chewwy wan' pway wif Zwee and Sho-Sho!”
>The lady scratches her head, then bends down and opens your box.
>”Well, see if you two can roll her out without hurting her.”
>The blue friends come in and begin pushing on you until you're right side up.
>It hurts, but not too much.  They nudge you with their sniffy things until you roll right out of the cage.
“Whee!  Chewwy woll!”
>”Fine.  You two will have to help me watch her.”
>”Okay!”
>The blue friends roll you around on the soft floor, following their mommy.
>Nice humans reach down and give you ear scratchies!
>In one room, you see little fluffies getting baths and having little bits of fluff taken away.
>You also see the yellow fluff monster lady.
>She gives you a very, very scary look.
“Hewp!  No huwt Chewwy!  No huwt!”
>You almost make bad poopies, but the blue friends roll you away from danger.
>When you're tired, they roll you back to your cage for nappies.
>They are very smart.
>You live in the pretty place for a while.
>You can pretty much go where you please, except for behind a white door in the big nummy bags room, and behind a red door between two funny holes in the wall where humans stand a lot.
>You see the yellow fluff monster a lot, but the nice humans always make sure she doesn't give you owwies.
>Every time you wake up from long nappies, you're a little smaller.
>The big poopie feeling you got used to isn't there anymore.
>After some of what Mister and the purple lady call 'days', you can walk again.
>You follow Sho-Sho and Zwee (whose name is very hard for you to say sometimes) as they chase mommy through the pretty place.
>They teach you where to make good poopies and how to ask nicely for nummies.
>After another long nappies, you wake up and you're small again!
>Even better, your tummy fluff is coming back!
>You jump around happily, but then you remember something.
>You walk out into the pretty place and call for the purple fluff lady.
>You find her in the bath place with another human friend, looking at some very, very pretty white babies.
>”What's wrong, Cherry?”
“Chewwy smaww, bu' was big!  Whewe babehs?”
>She smiles at you and gives the pretty baby she was holding to a nice human.
>”Come with me, Cherry.”
>You follow her to the red door.
“Chewwy no s'pose go dere!”
>”It's all right, come on.”
>She opens it for you and you walk through and look around.
>There are boxes like yours with babies!
>Some are really small, some are bigger, but you can tell they're all babies.
>There are so many!
>Two nice humans are here too, feeding the babies or giving them huggies.
>You walk to the boxes on the blue soft floor.  Little fluffies see you and try to hug you.
>Some have wingies or head-thingies, others are plain.
>A lot of them call you mumma.  You love that word even more than the sgettis the humans feed you.
>The purple fluff lady picks you up and puts you in a hole with even more babies in it.
>Unlike the hole you remember, this one is clean and pretty and the babies are too.
>They all hug you, even the little ones.
“Dese...dese aww Chewwy babehs?”
>”They sure are.  You have to help teach them to eat nummies like you do, and not to hurt each other.”
>You look around.  That's a lot of babies to teach.
>You don't mind, though.
“Chewwy be bes' mumma!  Teach aww babehs be good babehs!”
>The purple fluff lady smiles again and walks back through the red door.
>The babies are still hugging you, so you hug them back.
>You love all your babies.
>And they love you too.
