- >You wake to the loud overhead buzzer and blinking red light of your room.
- >Sleep, when you are allowed it is fitful and not overly restful to say the least.
- >Fortunately one of your prodigious birth does not require sleep as frequently as a regular pony.
- >It is both a blessing and a curse.
- >The buzzer suddenly cuts off and is replaced by the voice of the director.
- >“Specimen A-3 stand back from the door and await further instructions, a handler will be by shortly”
- >You comply mutely standing at attention and backing up until your rear hits the cold white wall of your cage.
- >After a short while the buzzer sounds again and the door slides open.
- >In walks one of the researchers, you don’t remember her name, human names are strange.
- >“Lower your head A-3”
- >Your head lowers and she begins to attach the secondary magical dampener to your horn.
- >The second dampener is more robust than the one you wear during your “off hours”.
- >By now you would have thought you were used to the sensation of having your magic suppressed, but the sudden dulling of your magical senses is disturbing every time.
- >Like suddenly not being able to hear, and the whole world going silent.
- >It was rather unsettling to say the least.
- >Once it’s secured she nods her head in apparent satisfaction.
- “Please follow me to Test Area C.”
- >Test Area C, that was medical, which meant today’s test would be painful or boring.
- >Honestly you didn’t care which one.
- >Pain and boredom were about equal in their ability to increase your suffering.
- >You follow the researcher down the pristine white hallway to the test area.
- >As always you are flanked by two guards in aluminum armor.
- >Like you could have escaped anyway.
- >The collar around your neck feels heavy.
- >With just a push of a button anyone in here could instantly immobilize you.
- >Raw magic power isn’t enough to overcome this.
- >Not when the whole facility was designed to keep you in.
- >It was your new castle, designed just for you by your enemies.
- >...
- >After a short escort you arrive at Area C
- “Here we are, you’ll need to be disinfected before we can proceed with today’s test,”
- >She leads you over to the rooms built in wash station.
- >The guards follow close behind you.
- >Your eyes do a quick scan of the room
- >The room looks like you remember it.
- >Polished gleaming white, just like the whole facility, well illuminated, and with fancy human technology everywhere.
- >A large silver surgical table sits in the center of the room, a tray of various medical instruments (all aluminium) set directly to its side.
- >“Stand here please.”
- >You comply.
- >The researcher pulls a little lever and lukewarm water erupts from the floor soaking your belly and legs.
- >Sweet Celestia that feels good.
- >You would go so far as to say it’s the best thing about your day.
- >Not that it happens every day, and never for very long.
- >As quick as they came the jets of water stops and the brushing begins.
- >One time you overheard the guards talking about how all researchers assigned here had to know basic animal handling skills.
- >This was rather hard for you to believe as the “handling” you received was often quite abrasive.
- >They would scrub you vigorously and with very little care for you during the process.
- >Not this one though.
- >She’d definitely paid attention during her training.
- >The brush caressed your sore body and worked deep knots of tension right out of your coat.
- >The sensation of the warm water and careful ministrations of the brush felt so good.
- >Maybe a little too good.
- >A blush crept up to your cheeks.
- >Goddess was this researcher getting you aroused?!
- >It certainly felt that way.
- >You felt like you should feel shame, but…
- >It had been a while since you’d felt such a pleasant touch.
- >And the sensations certainly were stimulating.
- >The way her hand would gently glide over your matted fur.
- >The way the warm, wet, soapy, brush would scratch that itch in just the right way.
- >Well it was all a little erotic.
- >Especially for a pony who hadn’t had any delicate attention like it in a long time.
- >In fact the last time you think you felt like this was…
- >Oh
- >What are you doing, getting aroused by some, some pet groomer.
- >You are a married mare!
- >A devious part of you mind crept its way in.
- >Why not just enjoy it?
- >You clearly were before you remembered him.
- >Isn’t your life so difficult, where’s the harm in a little carnality?
- >No it isn’t fair, not to…
- >Just let go, he’s probably not even-
- >A blast of cold water hits you making you yelp and washing away the soap and the rapidly dying embers of your lust.
- >Before you can do anything about the sudden assault a refreshing warm blast of air quickly dries your coat and leaves you feeling refreshed.
- >“Alright, all done.”
- >Several minutes later you lay strapped down to the medical table your horn fastened and your wings secured.
- >The researcher is busy preparing her tools for today’s tests, and judging from the large black case you don’t like the looks of them.
- >“Alright A-3, today we’re drawing some blood and also going to be retrieving a sample from the core of your horn.”
- >You feel the blood drain away from your face.
- “I’ve been told that this procedure can be extremely painful for your kind, so I’ve been authorized to adminstor a painkiller.”
- >She fills a syringe with a yellow liquid and inserts it into your IV line.
- >It must have been the look in your eyes or something because she felt the need to continue.
- >“Don’t worry it’s Duranzicorn, and while it’s never been used on an alicorn, it’s been used on unicorns many many times with almost no documented side effects.”
- >Yeah, that’s not what you were worried about, although that last part was a little worrying as well.
- “Let’s begin then.”
- >Opening up the intimidating black case, she reveals a wicked looking device.
- >It looks like a miniature saw attached to a black tube. The tips of the saw blade itself sparkles in the light of the room.
- >She pressed a switch on the saw and a green light snaps on. The blade spins making a whirring noise.
- >You flinch, or you try to, you actually can’t move your body at, all restrained as it may be.
- >A rising panic starts to spread throughout your body and you begin to hyperventilate.
- >“Ah yes, forgot to mention, Duranzicorn is also a paralytic, don’t want to cause any permanent damage if you flail around.”
- >The saw draws nearer to your horn, and you close your eyes hoping, praying that the painkiller is strong enough.
- >It wasn’t.
- >Blinding excruciating pain bursts forth, screaming into your head.
- >It feels as if your burning, standing in boiling water as your flesh melts away.
- >No being should be able to endure this.
- >You should be dead.
- >You wish you were dead.
- >Anything to stop the pain, please!
- >The pain stops.
- >“Alright just a little more, I’ve cut through to the core, just need a small little sample.”
- >The saw revs again, and you descended into hell.
- >The pain is electric and alive, and spreads through every nerve in your body.
- >Your brain is desperately screaming at you. “YOU’RE DYING”
- >Then please let me die.
- >The pain does not ebb or slow it continues, increasing more and more until.
- >nothing.
- >You awake.
- >You’re alive, you think.
- >If you were dead you wouldn’t hurt this bad.
- >The surroundings are familiar to you, back in your room it would seem.
- >Your horn throbs with pain, but after what you experienced it doesn’t even seem to register.
- >Reaching up you touch your horn.
- >A spike of pain runs through your already pain wracked body, but you push through it, you need to feel.
- >Sure enough you feel a section of your horn has been shaved away.
- >Touching almost causes you to black out a second time, and to be honest you might have.
- >How did this happen?
- >How did it ever get this bad?
- >Never in your wildest nightmares had you imagined an existence so pitiable and awful.
- >But, that was back then.
- >It wasn’t good for you to think too much about back then.
- >You did it quite often anyway.
- >Back, before, you had been so busy, had so many responsibilities.
- >Ruling an empire and having a family were no easy tasks, and you sometimes felt overburdened.
- >Your husband was busy too, and you didn’t see each other as often as either of you would have liked.
- >Your Aunts, and sister in law, your fellow rulers of Equestria were always so grand and accomplished, you struggled to keep up with their incredible pace.
- >You wanted to show them that you were a princess too, that they could count on you.
- >and your subjects, well sometimes they would drive you a bit off the walls.
- >But you were loved, they loved you, and you loved all of them.
- >Ponies had depended on you, that was especially true during the war, but now…
- >Now you were nothing.
- >A slave.
- >A glorified lab rat.
- >But worst of all was the solitude, you hadn’t seen another pony years.
- >You missed your subjects.
- >You missed your friends.
- >You missed your aunts.
- >You missed your sister-in-law.
- >You missed Shining.
- >...
- >You missed your daughter.
- >No
- >Don’t think about it.
- >You need to be strong, to endure for…
- >For what?
- >More pain? More humiliation? More Suffering?
- >There was no one left to protect, no one was coming for you.
- >They were probably all dea-
- >NO
- >You will NOT give up on them EVER
- >No matter what happens, you must stay strong for them.
- >One day you will see them all again.
- >Just have to take it one day at a time.
- >You reach up and feel where your horn was brutally and casually mutilated.
- >It gets harder every day.
- THREE WEEKS LATER
- >The buzzer brings you back from another dreamless sleep.
- >Time to greet the new day.
- >“Specimen A-3 stand back from the door and prepare to receive instructions”
- >You wait.
- >And wait.
- >And keep waiting.
- >You wait so long you start to suspect that perhaps this is the new round of tests, when suddenly your door slides open.
- >No guards enter, no handlers either.
- >Expectantly, you look up at the intercom awaiting instructions.
- >None come.
- >Hesitantly, you begin to creep over to the door.
- >Poking your head out the door, you peer to the right, and then to the left.
- >Standing off to the side is a lone human, completely untethered from the omnipresent guards that flank all of the researchers.
- >This human is entirely unfamiliar to you and he’s not wearing the normal staff uniform.
- >“Hello, how are you today?”
- >This was not the normal procedure, you did not like this one bit.
- >A change in procedure meant that something had been changed, which meant this was a new test, which usually meant… pain.
- >He advances toward you slowly with his hand outstretched.
- >Your instinct is to run, not to let the strange human touch you, but you remain frozen in place, unsure if this is just some new elaborate test.
- >He’s right in front of you now, his hand right in front of your face.
- >He reaches down and runs his hand through your mane.
- >A burst of sudden searing electric pain courses through your body, emanating from the collar around your neck.
- >As quickly as it came it goes.
- >The buzzer sounds and the director's voice booms down at you.
- >“A-3, you know the procedures, no unauthorized contact with the staff, Anonymous here is a new researcher here. Dr. Anonymous could you please try to stick with the procedure?”
- >The man, Anonymous, looks to be quite angry.
- >“Director please, don’t shock the poor girl, I was the one that touched her after all.”
- >The intercom falls silent.
- >“Er, that came out wrong, but you know what I mean, I need to establish a rapport with her, and how could I resist petting such a cute little thing.”
- >“Dr. Anonymous, while I appreciate the need for your, expertise, I must remind you that you are a GUEST researcher, and that our rules and regulations are in place for your safety as much as the subjects.”
- >He opens his mouth to reply, but is interrupted.
- “If you must, we may discuss and special clearances you may need later, for now I suggest you get to work, the other subject will only be available for the next four hours.”
- >Other subject?
- >The Intercom clicks off with a burst of static and Dr. Anonymous turns back to look at you.
- “Sorry, I didn’t mean, I mean… sorry about that”
- >He looks over at you with, guilt? Embarrassment? Compassion?
- >You are immediately suspicious to say the least, after all he is one of them.
- >“I’m Dr. Anonymous, but I guess you already know that, what’s your name?”
- >What sort of question is that? He knows your name. It’s best to answer the Doctor’s questions though, lest you want another zap.
- “Specimen A-3.”
- >He chuckles slightly,
- >“No not that, I meant like, your name, before you were uh, you know.”
- >Oh
- >Your real name.
- >It feels like forever since anyone ever wanted to know your original name.
- >That pony and the pony you are now feel like two distinct personalities within you.
- >Maybe you took too long to reply, but for whatever reason Dr. Anonymous stands and says.
- >“Forget it, you don’t have to tell me your name if you don’t want to.”
- >“Welp looks like you're good to go, I’ll lead you to the lab.”
- >He leads you out of your cell and down the wide hallway.
- >Walking slightly behind him you start to think.
- >Is this part of the test? Sometimes they wouldn’t tell you what they were going to do, sometimes they would, sometimes they would lie.
- >And what was that the director said about other subjects?
- >As a result you were always on edge, just slightly anxious, never sure what to expect.
- >Dr. Anonymous so far seemed inexperienced, the director certainly didn’t seem too impressed, which meant he was dangerous but not necessarily malicious.
- >Maliciousness you understand and could somewhat plan around, but incompetence was volatile and unpredictable.
- >Plus he had already gotten you punished within seconds, and while you doubted it was intentional, it definitely soured your opinion of him.
- >While Dr. Anonymous appeared straightforward you did not want to make assumptions like that.
- >Not in here.
- >As you near the usual testing chamber, you begin to relax.
- >Room D meant that whatever tests they wanted to perform would not be invasive, Room D was basically a glorified auditorium.
- >A minuscule smile touches the corners of your lips despite yourself.
- >It’s just been a long time since you’ve gotten a chance to exercise.
- >As the door slides open, your mouth falls open in shock.
- >There’s a violet unicorn mare with a purple mane in the room sitting next to a female researcher.
- >The mare turns to see who has entered and when she catches a glimpse of you her eyes go wide and her mouth gapes.
- >“Alright A-3 this is U-140, you will be performing a cooperative exercise with her today.”
- >This can’t be real can it? Another pony!
- >Excitement begins to bubble up in your chest at the prospect of meeting her.
- >Your eyes flick to her haunches.
- >A triple diamond cutie mark.
- >You wonder what did she do before this?
- >No, don’t think about it.
- >That’s not important now
- >Dr. Anonymous leads you over to the pony.
- >As you approach the mare seems to become bashful looking off to the side.
- >“Why don’t you two say hello?”
- >Say hello?
- >You’re unsure you can manage it.
- >The mare squeaks out “H-hello, Princess, it is nice to meet you.”
- >Princess
- >Wow
- >It’s been some time since you’ve been called that.
- “Hello”
- >The word feels unfamiliar in your own mouth, but the mare does not care or notice.
- >She looks down at her hooves, her eyes flicking over to the Doctor
- >“I seem to be in the way, tell you what, I’ll go stand over here let you girls have some time to yourselves, how’s that sound?”
- >The mare nods her head and you quickly do the same.
- >Anonymous smiles.
- >“I’ll be right outside if you need anything.”
- >He makes a motion with his hand and the female researcher follows him out of the room.
- >Was he really going to leave you on your own with another pony?
- >Perhaps on your own wasn’t accurate, they had eyes everywhere.
- >Even if you couldn’t see them, they could see you.
- >But, still.
- >Totally alone.
- >With another pony.
- >For the first time in years.
- >What do you say?
- >There are a lot of things you want to say, to ask, you feel completely overwhelmed!
- >Say something!
- “I, uh, really like your mane.”
- >She just stares at you.
- >Then she smiles, her smile widens and continues to do so until she is laughing.
- >The laughter is infectious and you soon find yourself laughing as well.
- >You’re both laughing so much it’s a little creepy and not really an appropriate reaction, but you don’t even care.
- >Relief, joy, wonder, happiness, these emotions and many more subtle ones swirl around you bursting out in the form of uproarious laughter.
- >The emotional whiplash is too much almost and you can feel yourself beginning to cry tears.
- >But, for the first time in a long time, they are tears of joy.
- >The laughter begins to peter out and slow down.
- >You look at the mare and she looks at you.
- >It appears she needed this interaction just as much as you did.
- >The mare clears her throat.
- >“I already know who you are,” she says in between giggles, “so allow me to introduce myself.”
- >She extends her hoof for you to shake.
- >“My name is Amethyst Star, it’s nice to meet you.”
- >Reaching out you touch her hoof, and give a little shake.
- “I’m Cadence, it is nice to meet you Amethyst Star.”
- >You smile.
- >You frown.
- >This is not how you imagined your new job would go.
- >When you had been selected to be on this researcher team you were ecstatic.
- >Having a chance to personalize help study an alicorn in person?
- >It seemed like an absolute dream come true!
- >Not only that but with a team of awesome coworkers all experts in their respective fields you would be working on research that could potentially benefit all mankind!
- >Plus the money was pretty nice too.
- >But, what happens first day on the job?
- >You blow it, that’s what you fucking do.
- >Your overeagerness at meeting A-3 causes you to fuck up procedure getting her punished.
- >This, on the first five minutes of your job!
- >You should have been able to see that she was not receptive to human contact, she’s clearly and OBVIOUSLY suffered at least SOME trauma, what were you thinking?
- >Some psychologist you are.
- >“Dr. Anonymous!”
- >Your head whips around.
- >Oh shit, it’s the site director.
- “Yes ma’am!”
- >You give a salute.
- >She slaps your hand away from your forehead.
- >“Knock that shit off, this isn’t the military for chrissake.”
- “Sorry ma’am!”
- >She pinches the bridge of her nose and lets out a deep sigh.
- >“Listen Anonymous, I know that the government is paying a lot of money for the use of my subject, but what in the hell are you doing with her?”
- “Uh, what”
- >“Letting her interact with another pony, leaving her unsupervised during testing, asking her what her NAME is? What are you trying to do, undermine all my work? She took a lot of time before she became this compliant, and now it looks like your trying to undo it all!”
- >This chick is pissing you off, she’s being paid a lot of money for the use of A-3 so what’s her fucking problem?
- “While I can’t tell you, exactly, what our research entails, I can tell you that A-3’s emotional well being is very important to our goals. And if that means undoing some of your conditioning, then, well, sorry about that.”
- >She scowls at you.
- >“Make no mistake, she is still my property, and if you do anything that jeopardizes my future work, I will sue your ass personally, sorry about that!”
- >Giving you a little smirk and a pat on the cheek she saunters off down the hallway.
- >Jesus she’s a bitch.
- >But, kinda in a sexy way.
- >You’re a little aroused.
- >Damnit Anon, no!
- >Do not fuck crazy science chicks!
- >Never again.
- >“Hey Anon, how did the initial test go?”
- “Oh hey Chad. It’s actually still in progress.”
- >“Well, uh where is she then?”
- >You point down through the one way glass, the subjects seem to be getting along well enough.
- “She’s down there, I feel I was being disruptive to her therapy.”
- >He simply shrugs “You’re the expert.”
- >“So I know the test is ongoing, but do you think she can give us what we need?”
- “Um, Yeah, I think it will take some work, but I think she should be able to perform.”
- >His face visibly relaxes, “That is a relief, I don’t know what we’d do without her, being as she’s the only Alicorn available.”
- >You nod.
- >“Well,” he slaps you on the shoulder, “keep up the good work, and remember, that mare is gonna help us change everything.”
- >He to departs off down the hallway.
- >Looking down at A-3 you can’t help but smile a little.
- >Yes
- >She is.
