1Airport security, the one thing that nobody in this country seems to enjoy apart from the security personnel themselves. And even then, sometimes that seems doubtful. Affetto is a male unicorn with gray fur and black hair that is kind of long. He generally does his best to try and maintain some sort of decent appearance, but sometimes even best efforts fail.
2
3Working his way through the security line, he adjusted his clothes. A black tee shirt, blue jeans, and a black vest. His luggage had been seized by the security and it was being searched. He had no idea why, but he always seemed to be a target of the security at airports. It was getting really old.
4
5“Sir, what's your reason for coming to Los Santos?†The question came from a red furred unicorn mare in a security uniform. She had just finished going through all of his personal belongings and had of course found absolutely nothing.
6
7“Visiting a friend, may even consider moving here,†he responded in a charming and charismatic voice.
8
9“Yeah, well, stay out of trouble,†she stated as she zipped his suitcase back up.
10
11“Too late,†he replied and took his suitcase. “You'll be hearing from my lawyer later about this. I am so sick of being harassed by self appointed badges with authority complexes. You enjoy what authority you have left, because this time tomorrow.......you'll be lucky to be a rent-a-cop at a mall.â€
12
13Maybe he was pushing his luck saying that, but maybe not. Affetto had flown to Los Santos using a private jet, not one of the airlines, and still his luggage got seized for inspection. So, clearly, profiling and harassment was present, and it needed to be dealt with post haste. But first, he had to get out of this stupid airport and get to his friend's house.
14
15As he walked out to where the curb was, he heard the honking of a horn. Turning towards his right, he saw a white Pagani Huayra convertible speeding up. The extremely expensive roadster was driven by none other than his friend, Snowbolt.
16
17The white furred female alicorn had long icy blue hair that seemed to match her white fur coat perfectly. Dressed in a white button up blouse, blue jeans, and a light blue vest, she looked dressed to kill. Well, actually, she looked to be dressed like a tomboy billionaire. Especially with her hair tied behind her in a ponytail.
18
19“Snow, how will my suitcase fit into this car?†Affetto asked as he brushed some hair from his eyes.
20
21The female alicorn then snapped her fingers and pointed back as a brand new Mercedes S600 Maybach sedan that was also white was seen pulling up. The huge luxury car was an elongated Mercedes S Class that had brought back the Maybach name.
22
23“Snowbolt, were you ever low key?â€
24
25“Nope,†she responded quickly and motioned for the driver of the Mercedes to take his luggage and then head back to the mansion.
26
27As the gray unicorn male watched his things get loaded into the massive sedan, he heard the snapping of fingers and saw Snowbolt motioning him to get into the supercar. With some trepidation, he did. “What do you..........whoa!†He'd been unable to finish the sentence as she gunned it and sped off. “You're going to get a speeding ticket.â€
28
29“No I won't, trust me,†the white alicorn noted as she patted her side some as though she were searching for something. Feeling her own rather impressive bust, she gave each breast a playful squeeze and cupping before moving down and smiling. “Good, still there.â€
30
31“Did you get bigger breasts?†Affetto asked, sounding a little embarrassed.
32
33“Yep, all natural too. But, my own love for my big boobs was not why I was checking myself over. You see, I wound up getting called to another meeting, kind of last minute. I've heard your tales of how you took over Liberty City. Well, I'm working to take over Los Santos.â€
34
35Affetto smiled, more than happy to help. However, as the car sped away from the airport, the destination he was expecting was not where they seemed to be going. Business was usually conducted downtown in the skyscrapers and banks, not in the poorer neighborhoods.
36
37As the streets got worse and became a bit more worn, Affetto noticed that they seemed to be heading for a fairly dusty looking area in the eastern and rather poor part of town. Passing by a warehouse, Affetto saw 2 Cadillac Escalade ESV SUVs pull in behind Snowbolt's supercar. He was now starting to feel decidedly unnerved and wanted to question about what was going on.
38
39However, the one thing that was stopping him was the look on Snowbolt's face. The alicorn mare had a serious look as she stared straight ahead. It seemed she was focusing on their destination. In fact, he wondered if she had even noticed the 2 SUVs behind them. Though, he quickly realized she had when she pulled out a walkie talkie.
40
41“Windsheer, Thunderlane, is everyone here?â€
42
43“Sure is,†came a male voice, the one Affetto recognized as belonging to the male black furred pegasus known as Thunderlane. “And the meeting is all set to commence, we just have to get there.â€
44
45“What about the 'hounds'?†Snowbolt asked.
46
47Affetto listened to a crackle over the radio as a response came in a moment later, “Occupied elsewhere. We should be fine if we keep things short.â€
48
49“Snowbolt, where are we going? What are we doing? And just what was that talk about 'hounds'?†Affetto was nearly panicked now as he had no idea what was happening.
50
51“Welcome to Los Santos,†Snowbolt stated as she pulled onto a dusty road that wound up around a bend and up a slight hill towards what appeared to be a small car shop or junkyard. 3 BMW 7 Series sedans and a GMC Denali XL SUV were spotted. The sedans were black whereas the SUV seemed to be a dark purple.
52
53As the car pulled to a stop, Affetto looked towards where Snowbolt was sitting and saw her exit the car. Popping open the front, she pulled out an AK47 and a couple of magazines. Sliding the magazines into her blouse after unbuttoning it, she yanked back on the lever on the side of the rifle as she motioned to the SUVs to pull up and then stop.
54
55“Snowbolt! You don't need guns to do business!!â€
56
57“Depends on the business, Affetto. Thunderlane, Windsheer, make sure the others are in position. And bring me the product.â€
58
59Both pegasai nodded. The latter was a gray furred pegasus stallion that had been armed with a shotgun. He was not one that Affetto was overly familiar with. Thunderlane, the one he did know, had some heavy pistol. Maybe a Desert Eagle. Affetto's knowledge on firearms was lackluster, but he did know some things, especially since a friend of his in Liberty City collected firearms. He never shot them or did anything with them, he just collected them and kept them in a thick glass case behind bulletproof glass.
60
61It was then he saw unicorns and pegasai exiting the BMW sedans as well as the GMC SUV. One unicorn, a black furred mare, opened the back left door on the SUV as a purple furred alicorn stepped out dressed in a business suit.
62
63His eyes went nearly as wide as dinner plates when he saw just who Snowbolt was meeting. It was Twilight Sparkle. Clearly, this had to be some sort of sting operation on somebody. The question was, who was setting the sting and who was about to be stung?
64
65“Sparkle, I have the product you asked for. The best spice around. It is guaranteed to give you that perfect high without all those nasty side effects. Certainly much better than cocaine.â€
66
67The purple alicorn casually lit a cigarette before taking a drag. Exhaling the smoke, she smiled an evil smile, “We shall see. How much?â€
68
69Affetto watched as Snowbolt snapped her fingers. Two of her pegasai guards opened up the briefcases that they were carrying to reveal packages of either a blue or pink dust sealed up in bags. Spice. Spice was one of the most illegal drugs out there. The hallucinations caused by it made LSD seem like a walk in the park. Those that were unfortunate enough to get the overly pure stuff often had a systematic seizure before dying. It wasn't the best way to go, if he was honest.
70
71“I have both the Blue Shadow and the Pink Mist. 20 million for all of it. And I expect cash.â€
72
73“How about, I give you 5 million, and you give me all you have. The other option is that I simply take what you have after I have killed each and every one of you,†Twilight sneered as she took another drag on the cigarette.
74
75Snowbolt then motioned with her fingers in a two fingered point to the up and left with her left hand as one of the BMWs exploded into a ball of fire. Naturally, Twilight and her ponies turned around as Snowbolt's own closed up the cases and stepped back.
76
77“Make that, 50 million. And, if you want to get out alive, I suggest you rethink your meager threats. Just because your magic is better doesn't make you automatically bulletproof. Especially since those shield spells only work against specific types of rounds. Without the knowledge of the rounds being fired, you could just as well throw up the wrong shield and lose your head. And for reference, I have a lot more guns than you.â€
78
79“You always knew how to make your mark,†Twilight noted before snapping her own fingers and motioning for a familiar white unicorn mare with purple styled hair to walk up. “50 million. Well, minus that for a new car.â€
80
81Snowbolt nodded and motioned her own two pegasai forward as the exchange happened. “Hey Sparkle, try not to use most of the stuff yourself.......this time.â€
82
83Affetto was sweating bullets as he watched Twilight and her ponies get into their remaining vehicles and drive off. Snowbolt put her gun back into the trunk of her Pagani before shutting it and then sliding back into the driver's seat.
84
85As they drove through the city streets, Affetto couldn't help but feel like he had missed something. “You blow up one of her cars and she let you live?â€
86
87“She expects me to stand strong and be strong. After all, I do work for her, just unofficially. I'm not supposed to back down, ever. In regards to the spice, I'm the only one that can get it because of the contacts I have. So, I sell it to everybody that wants some, especially Twilight Sparkle. Sparkle is one of the biggest users of spice that I have ever seen.â€
88
89“What happened if she hadn't backed down?†Affetto asked, not sure he wanted to hear the answer.
90
91“Then you would have witnessed a fight,†she replied as they turned right onto a street and started to head north, out of town. “I own an estate just north of town. The previous owner just gave it to me. He gave me the deed, his cars, the titles to those cars, everything.â€
92
93“Why do I get the feeling that you are just blowing smoke up my ass?†Affetto asked only to get punched really hard in the arm. “Ow.â€
94
95“Watch those comments around me, Alfie. If you don't, I'll give you to my spice growing friends up in the Chiliad Wilderness. And trust me, they'll freely accept ponies like you instead of anything else because of their........unique tastes.â€
96
97Affetto was not sure what to feel apart from disturbed, so he just stuck with that as they pulled into a big fancy driveway that ended in a circular pattern around some flowers with an extra bit that curved around to a two car garage.
98
99“I have a warehouse downtown for the rest of my babies,†Snowbolt stated as she exited the car.
100
101Stepping out, Affetto looked around, a little unsure about what he was getting himself into. Maybe he should just decline and head back to Liberty City. However, there was the thought on whether that would actually be a good idea or not. After all, with what he had just witnessed, would she really trust him to just up and leave like a snap of her fingers? No, no she wouldn't. She would think that something was up and likely murder him. No, he had to play it calm and cool and try to stay out of the business she had put herself into.
102
103“Are there any rules that I should be aware of?â€
104
105“Yeah, no talking to the cops,†Snowbolt replied as she headed inside.
106
107Well, that seemed simple enough. It also seemed fairly obvious given what he had just witnessed and how he was now absolutely afraid of the mare that was his friend. Idly, he wondered if he even considered her a friend anymore. When he had first met her, she'd been nice and rather sweet. She had been a good business mare. Now, she was into a different kind of business, one he was not sure he liked.
108
109Walking through the front door, he took a look around at the fairly luxurious and extravagant interior. Snowbolt was nowhere to be seen, of that he was currently thankful. He did spot Thunderlane standing nearby, much like a bodyguard might.
110
111As he walked towards the living room, he took a look at the ornate designs of the interior of the house. There was a large wood fireplace and even some nice furniture that appeared to be in Snowbolt's taste of white with a very in your face kind of flair. Rarity had been about looks and elegance, whereas Snowbolt was in your face and loud. As such, she liked clothing, cars, and furniture that fit that. Well, her clothing was usually of a tomboyish nature, but that was merely because of how she seemed to be fairly masculine compared to most mares.
112
113His first night on the west coast was not necessarily the most pleasant one he had spent. In fact, he barely slept because of his constant worry over what he had witnessed and what it meant for the rest of the time he had reserved to spend 'helping' his friend Snowbolt. Apparently, the alicorn didn't need the help he had intended to give. Instead, the type of help she seemed to need was the kind he wasn't so sure that he was willing to give.
114
115At 6 am the following morning, he stumbled from his bedroom to the bathroom to relieve himself and take a shower. As he felt the water spray over his body, he wondered if Snowbolt thought him weak. He'd always been passionate about how he had never backed down from a challenge. However, all those challenges had been challenges that were not illegal to overcome.
116
117Running his hands through his black hair before plucking some hairs from his gray fur coat, he mentally debated what he would do. As it was, he had a few options. One of his options was to just tell the police what was going on. But, of course, his life would likely wind up on the line for that particular choice. As much as he wanted to live, he didn't think that being in witness protection was really living.
118
119Another choice he had was to just go along with whatever criminal activities that Snowbolt seemed to be involved in. That meant breaking every rule he had held so dear. Again, it wasn't exactly something he wanted to do. But, looking at his third and final choice, he wondered if he really had more than one choice. The third choice involved anonymously alerting the police and taking Snowbolt and the others down. Of course, a fourth was in tandem with that choice. He could just simply leave and disappear.
120
121Unfortunately, he doubted she would take such a disappearance as a willingness on his part to remain silent and remove himself from the public eye. Not to mention he still had his own businesses to worry about back in Liberty City.
122
123A pounding on the door snapped him out of his reverie as he heard Snowbolt's voice on the other side of the door.
124
125“Hey, Alfie, time for you to see how I got to where I am. Meet me in the driveway in 30 minutes.â€
126
127He heard the young female alicorn walk away from the door and he realized that right now, he had a choice to make. Either go with her or not. Again, with what he had seen so far, he doubted that doing anything apart from what she told him would result in bad things happening to him. Still, he was fairly certain he could slip out if he really put some effort into it.
128
129Exiting the shower, he got dried off and got dressed. He never made any attempt to excuse himself from the property to go vanish somewhere. Instead, he just sat in his room and thought over and over about his options.
130
131His watch beeped as he noticed that 30 minutes had passed. With a resigned sigh, he headed out to the driveway and spotted a heavily armored SUV. It was the biggest thing he had ever seen with thick bulletproof armor. Actually, he wouldn't have been surprised if told it was explosion resistant.
132
133“Get in the truck,†Snowbolt stated as he nodded and slid into the passenger seat.
134
135She climbed into the driver's seat and then shut the doors, locking them after she did so. Her facial expression was hard to read, but it was clear that she seemed unhappy.
136
137“I did some research on you and discovered you aren't exactly the corrupt being I thought you were. This is a problem. So, think of this as a test of your mettle. This is a pass/fail kind of test. Even if you survive the outcome, failure will mean death. Don't think I won't hesitate to kill you. This is simply business.â€
138
139“What are we doing?†Affetto asked a bit nervously as she started up the big beast of an SUV.
140
141“Heading north to eliminate a bunch of rednecks. You saw me playing bitch to Sparkle while also showing I can stand up to her, something she expects. However, her time as the great leader of the organization here in Los Santos is coming to an end. Putting her in prison won't work. I need her head! Nothing else attached, just a head.â€
142
143“I don't think Twilight is a redneck,†Affetto noted.
144
145“Nope, but the Cabbage family is. After attempting to wipe out most of the Apples, the Cabbage family made themselves top ponies in the boonies. Applejack, Apple Bloom, and Big Mac are the only survivors. So, they got a bone to pick with those Cabbages.â€
146
147With that, Snowbolt signaled with a single hand gesture that the conversation was over. So, Affetto just sat there as he watched the scenery go by. As they headed north and into the countryside, he again began to wonder if he was in over his head.
148
149“How many of the Elements of Harmony have faltered?â€
150
151“Faltered? None! All have come to see the light. The only shit worth having is what you can take! Besides, I've got a new employer coming in. Her name is Aurora Industry, and she runs the Shadow Yakuza changelings. Unlike Twilight, she doesn't do her own stuff and isn't unpredictable like that psycho Pinkie Pie.â€
152
153“What about the others?â€
154
155“Rarity works for Twilight. Unfortunate. I did want her for myself, but she is too loyal to turn on Twilight. Rainbow is a street racer and gambler. She owes a lot of money to a lot of folks, so she is constantly doing stuff for folks simply to settle debts. Were it not for the fact she could drive, run, and fly so fast and with impressive skill, she probably would have been dead a long time ago.â€
156
157It seemed that not one single being was the same since coming out here. But, that still left Sunset Shimmer and Starlight Glimmer as questions. However, a mere gesture in response told him that those two were no longer around.
158
159“They couldn't cut it, so I did them both a favor....on orders from Twilight. Sunset refused to see the light while Starlight was becoming too strong a player. I'm also becoming quite strong, but my near constant supply of spice has the great alicorn mellowed for the time being.â€
160
161Of all the ponies Affetto would have expected to be a drug addict, Twilight Sparkle was not one of them. But, he had seen how she was when she approached. Dangerous, paranoid, and perhaps a bit too willing to use deadly force.
162
163As he thought about Twilight and the others, he realized that a name had been thrown out. Another name that was different from the rest. Aurora Industry. Aside from being a changeling, he knew nothing about this female.
164
165“You mentioned an Aurora?â€
166
167“If you pass, you'll get to meet her. She is supplying the remaining Apples with some firearms. You'll have one job. I don't care how you do it, but you are going to kill Sebastian Cabbage. He should be fairly easy to eliminate. After all, he's only 17.â€
168
169“That's murder!†Affetto practically screamed, but stopped when he saw a glare.
170
171“Only in your case. If you don't kill him, then I will kill him.........and you. I'd like to stay friends, but I made the mistake with my assumptions that you were corrupt and showing you my actual business. So now, I have to get you in the shit so that you won't go blabbing to the cops.â€
172
173Well, logically, it seemed to make sense. But, then again, he knew that people would notice if he went missing for any reason. Though, regardless, he'd rather stay alive and in one piece. Plus, he had no doubt she might try go for the more painful death as opposed to a quick one.
174
175Nearly 2 hours later, the big beast of a vehicle pulled up into a large grassy field outside of a set of barns and a couple of farmhouses. There were no other vehicles present apart from an empty older Chevrolet Suburban SUV.
176
177“Come on, the Apples have beat us here.â€
178
179Affetto wasn't so sure that only three members of the family had survived, but all he had was what Snowbolt had said. Granted, she could be lying, but he didn't know that. All he knew was that he was about to get involved in a turf war kind of fight that he wanted nothing to do with. Unfortunately, the only real way out was to simply die, which wasn't something he was willing to do.
180
181Snowbolt grabbed a bow from the back of the massive SUV before grabbing a shotgun. Tossing the shotgun to Affetto, she closed the hatch and then set something on the underside of the vehicle. He didn't know what that was, but he assumed that it was a bomb of some sort.
182
183Unsure about everything, he simply held the shotgun as he followed the alicorn mare over to a large grove of trees. Once they had reached it, he noticed the familiar hued mare standing with the massive stallion and a much younger mare. All three were armed. The big burly stallion carried a large heavy machine gun, a squad automatic weapon, while his adopted sister Applejack had a SPAS-12 shotgun. The youngest one, clearly a teenager, had a rifle with a scope on it. And it wasn't a hunting rifle. This thing looked like an upscale military rifle.
184
185“AB, make sure you got your enemies lined up and none of us, I don't feel like eating a fifty caliber bullet.â€
186
187Snowbolt's comment made him pale when he realized it was a tactical 50 caliber sniper. An antimaterial rifle. Affetto wanted to back out now, but there was no way he could. He then saw the eyes of those present glance towards the left. Standing out next to a partially concealed limousine was a beautiful white furred alicorn. Wait, no, she was a changeling. He blinked a bit in confusion. Since when were changelings white?
188
189“Hey lover boy, come on,†Snowbolt stated and pulled on him.
190
191Lover boy? What!? He didn't love her! Wait.....love? Was that the sensation he had felt when he got a perfect image of her? No. No, that couldn't be love. Lust, maybe, but not love. Still, once that had been mentioned, it was now stuck in his head as he found himself unable to really think of anything else.
192
193As Snowbolt led him up to a large haystack, she motioned towards the barn and the farmhouses. Then she made the telltale notion of pulling a finger across her throat with the often applied sound effect. Pulling something from a pocket of the vest she was wearing, she pulled something from it before throwing it into the barn's window.
194
195Before he could ask what it was, Affetto was given his answer when an explosion blew out a part of the wall on the barn. Amongst the ruins were two ponies that had been killed in the blast. Snowbolt leaped on top of the haystack and fired an arrow as it impaled a mare that rushed out of the door of one of the farmhouses.
196
197Affetto was ordered to go and find his target as the three Apples ran in, opening fire as they moved to concealed positions. The gray unicorn could not have felt more out of his element. Stumbling past the ruined barn, he dodged a swing from an axe as machine gun fire sounded out. Blood sprayed across his face and fur as the big burly stallion had been cut down by the aforementioned machine gun fire.
198
199Spotting a case, Affetto opened it and saw a pair of rapier swords. Looking at the shotgun again, he tossed it down and scooped up the swords as he rushed to the second farmhouse. A couple of stallions rushed out as one was shot through the left eye by an arrow. The second managed to get behind a Dodge pickup truck that was blown up a moment later by another grenade.
200
201Sliding inside, he found a drug manufacturing setup and had half a mind to smash it. But then he remembered that Snowbolt and the Apples wanted it intact. Well, more importantly, Aurora wanted it intact. Maybe if he embraced this life, he could catch her eye. Right now, he was probably little more than a weakling.
202
203Hearing sounds upstairs, he glanced upwards and then made a quick beeline for the adjacent stairwell. Rushing up, he ducked just to avoid getting his head blown off by a shotgun blast. Hearing the sounds of a gun being reloaded, he rushed back up and flipped over the wooden railing.
204
205Using his magic, he levitated a large metal plate in front of him as a makeshift shield before getting a clever idea and turning it horizontally. He then sent it flying as the stallion (another unicorn) stepped out. The metal plate smashed into his throat, leaving the black furred stallion choking and coughing.
206
207Making use of the extra time, Affetto rushed in as adrenaline took over. Before the black stallion could recover, Affetto had run him through with the rapier. At that moment, the realization that he had just taken a life struck him as he choked on his own vomit. It was a disturbingly sickening thought. However, he also realized that this stallion was too big and too old to be the one he had been sent after.
208
209Removing the rapier from the stallion, Affetto had a momentary lapse as he wondered what he should do. A gunshot echoed out as pain filled his side. At that moment, his judgment snapped as he spun the rapiers around in his hands.
210
211Turning around, he saw a door slam shut and locked his eyes on it. He was mad now. As his horn lit up, he opened the door from where he stood before being forced to drop as the young stallion fired off shots from a pistol.
212
213“Git on out o' here 'fore Ah kill ya!â€
214
215Well, that wasn't about to happen. Rolling into the next room over to avoid more shots, Affetto spotted a large weapon. Technically, it was a large firearm. Picking it up, the unicorn noted it was kind of heavy yet a bit lighter than what he expected. It was a two-handed weapon with six chambers for rounds of some sort. As he opened it, he realized what rounds it held.
216
217Not knowing what kind of recoil to expect, he ducked and rolled back into the area around the stairwell as the young stallion opened fire yet again. Affetto never stopped as he rolled past the railing and behind another bit of railing with no openings. Remembering basic knowledge, he looked to see if the weapon had a safety feature and saw it did.
218
219Switching the safety to 'off', he jumped up and fired, dropping back down as he pulled the trigger. The grenade struck the far wall and detonated, causing a nice explosion that left Affetto's ears ringing from the blast. That had apparently been a rather dumb idea. Still, his impromptu shelter seemed to have held out fairly well against the blast as he had absolutely no damage or injuries from the blast apart from the ringing in his ears.
220
221Standing back up a bit haphazardly, he saw the young stallion standing up as well. The green furred pony was covered in cuts and debris. The pistol he held was destroyed and utterly useless now.
222
223Affetto dropped the grenade launcher and scooped up his rapiers again. Walking around, he thought about what he was about to do. The instance before, okay, that could be construed as self defense. That could be bought certainly. But what he was about to do, that was murder. Could he really murder somepony?
224
225As he stopped, he saw the young stallion start to run. Adjusting his grip on the rapier in his right hand, he hurled it and nailed the young stallion through the back. His aim had been good, and as such, the injury was a fatal one as the pony stumbled a few steps before falling onto the floor. Affetto had just murdered somepony. Strangely, he didn't feel as sick to his stomach than he had that first time. But maybe that was because he had been upset that he had been shot.
226
227Either way, he had committed the act of murder, and in doing so had committed himself to being a criminal.....at least in the most basic sense of the word. This was all despite the fact that the one crime he had chosen to commit by doing so was probably one of the worst crimes he could have possibly committed.
228
229It was then he was reminded of his gunshot wound as the pain once again came full circle and his left hand immediately went to his side to cover the wound. He made a mental note right then and there to not get shot again because it was the worst pain he had ever felt. Though, keeping in mind what Snowbolt was a part of, a gunshot wound was probably one of the least painful things one could experience.
230
231Heading back down the stairs slowly, he quickly realized the lack of gunfire and wondered if the fight was over. He was also wondering who won, though he was fairly certain (and hoping) that his allies had won. If not, then the gunshot wound would be the least of his worries. As luck would have it though, he found Snowbolt waiting right outside the front door.
232
233“I would have preferred that you not use a weapon like an explosive that close to explosive material, but.....it worked, and you did your job and more. So, with that said, I think I can safely trust you with my business and my business practices. Keep in mind though, that you are still on quite the short leash as it were.â€
234
235“Don't be so hard on the young male. After all, one's first murder is always a rather interesting prospect. Either sick, thrilled, or somewhere in between. But, of course, those are the most basic and well described emotions often attributed to such things.â€
236
237This new bit of conversation came from none other than Aurora. The white changeling female with long blonde hair had apparently walked up at some point and was now standing just a few feet away. She was a little thicker than he had assumed when he had first spotted her over by the limousine. Not fat, but certainly curvy. She had a nice ample bustline with quite the impressive looking pair of breasts that would no doubt look infinitely better without all those clothes in the way. Her belly didn't appear round, but then again, he couldn't exactly spot it from where he stood because of her clothes. Her hips and thighs were about what he expected, nice and shapely.
238
239A finger snap got him out of his 'trance' as he turned to Snowbolt. The alicorn mare indicated him to move on as she followed.
240
241“Aurora is out of your league. Plus, we need that injury treated. Luckily for you, I know just the doctor....one that won't ask questions.â€
242
243Affetto wasn't too surprised, especially since doctors that worked in hospitals tended to ask questions about the injuries sustained. Some injuries were easy to determine the cause, but then there is that pesky little question involving the 'why'. Like, for instance, 'Why were you shot?' You know, sometimes a lie could easily cover that up, especially with how many shootings occur in this city. But why risk getting caught? There were skilled doctors who would do private work for criminals in part because of the pay, in part because of some error within their own past, or some reason that they refused to disclose that may or may not include the first two aforementioned reasons.
244
245“Nicely done on your first kills, I'm impressed,†Snowbolt noted. “And, so is Aurora. Truth be told, she is not as cold or calculating as she seems. However, she does have a certain reputation to uphold. So, with that in mind, I doubt you'll ever catch her eye. However, you are more than welcome to try. Just don't expect to succeed.â€
246
247Her confidence in him was certainly breathtaking. Well, maybe that's a poor choice of words to use figuratively or metaphorically. But, the point was that she had little confidence in him actually succeeding with Aurora. He wanted to desperately prove her wrong. But how? Just how does one such as him go about dating a big time syndicate boss like her? Dinner and a movie? Eh, probably not. Dinner at a luxurious restaurant? Maybe. And maybe follow that up with something at the local theater.
248
249Sighing, he realized his problem. He had little knowledge on her and he doubted Snowbolt would be too willing to share anything that she happened to know. But, of course, he could always do some digging around. Though, in this case, he might want to be inconspicuous lest someone think he was doing something to sell them out or something. That would not end well.
250
251In town, they reached a facility in one of the poorer neighborhoods. A young buck was there and he was dressed in a medical uniform. Motioning Affetto and Snowbolt to follow, the buck led them inside and into the back.
252
253“So, what is it this time?â€
254
255“Just another gunshot, new guy.â€
256
257“I see,†the buck noted as he pulled on a pair of rubber gloves. “Well, Mister.....â€
258
259“Affetto,†the unicorn interjected.
260
261“Right......well, please remove your shirt and anything else you are wearing on your torso.â€
262
263Doing so, Affetto was curious as to why the buck had never given his name. “No name?â€
264
265“Call me Buck or Doc if you want a name. I'm not officially here, so my name is irrelevant,†he began as he examined the wound.
266
267“I guess asking about Aurora would get me nowhere,†Affetto muttered. To be honest, he was certain that he had done that just a little too casually.
268
269“Not necessarily. Information regarding her businesses and business practices, I cannot say. Don't know, and of course the doctor/patient privilege thing. Now, in regards to something more sensual, I may be able to offer some advice. This, of course, is coming from an ex boyfriend......myself.â€
270
271Affetto flinched. Though whether that was from the buck working on his injury or what he had just said was unknown even to Affetto. Still, he was curious, so he allowed the buck to continue.
272
273As he got a needle and some thread for stitching, he continued. “Aurora is not your traditional leader. She has no qualms going on dates with those her associates may frown upon. However, be careful when she is upset.......or you may wind up on the menu. I do mean that literally, by the way. Aurora is tricky and has rather refined tastes in regards to certain things, but she does enjoy fast food.â€
274
275That bit of information seemed a little surprising. Though, a quick glance towards where Snowbolt stood leaned against some cabinets suggested she was somewhat aware of some of the changeling female's preferences.
276
277“Aurora is bisexual. I know that because I had a few flings with her. Never became a girlfriend. In regards to getting her attention, just approach her in a public place. Be mindful that she has guards concealed all around. But, since you want to date her, it shouldn't be a problem. You're not the first and you won't be the last. I merely said she was out of your league because she'll give you a few dates, and then move on. She's not the sort to settle down.â€
278
279“Bolt is right,†the buck noted as he began stitching. “If you want some fun and some good times, you'll certainly get them. But, nothing sexual and certainly nothing beyond spending time with her at a restaurant, theater, movie theater, or what have you.â€
280
281“So, no chance to see her naked?†Affetto asked.
282
283“No. In fact, for that......just ask, and she will show......privately of course. However, think of it like a strip club.......no touching. She takes great pride in her body, and being asked to show it off is something she likes. But, do not make complaints over her body........ever. She is very protective of her figure. Any nasty comments and......†he moved his finger across his neck with the sound effect that was often applied.
284
285Affetto simply nodded to his friend and the doctor with a resigned sigh. The wound was soon taken care of and he was bandaged up. The buck had used some magic to disintegrate the bullet as he had patched up the wound. Much better then to simply remove the round. In this field, especially for these kinds of customers, it was just good business practice to eliminate evidence whenever possible.
286
287As the pair exited the private 'hospital' and headed for Snowbolt's massive armored SUV, Affetto had to wonder about his options now. He had killed. To be perfectly frank, he had murdered. Never would he have ever thought that he could do such a heinous act. But, at the same time, he found himself quickly pushing it aside as thoughts of Aurora began to dominate his mind.
288
289The mere sight of her had triggered something within him, and he desperately wanted her and wanted to have her all to himself. But, according to his friend and the doctor, that didn't seem likely. Maybe he could play it cool. Try the 'dating' approach while doing odd jobs and things to hopefully make her happy and interested enough to return his affections. And maybe, just maybe, he could get her to put on some weight.
290
291Because, truth be told, Affetto had a sort of inner fondness for larger females. The larger the better. It was not something he was too keen on discussing since the general acceptance was not for fat females, but thin ones.
292
293The engine starting brought him back to the real world as they pulled from the building's parking lot and made for the mansion. The entire trip, Affetto leaned against the passenger door as he just sat and thought about what he would do. He wanted to date Aurora. Near as he could tell, that was certainly an option. Making her fat might be tricky, but certainly not impossible. Making her all his, that seemed to be the hardest so far. But, he was most certainly up to the task of accomplishing not just a part of what he wanted, but all of it!
294
295Pulling into the nice large circular driveway just outside her impressive home, Affetto just sat in the passenger seat as Snowbolt exited the vehicle and headed inside. He needed a little extra time alone and he needed to work out some sort of plan. When he started getting serious, he really didn't want to be doing anything of that nature here in his friend's home. He also kind of didn't want to do things like that in Aurora's home. He wanted some place out here that was strictly his. Something that he could call his own and do just as he pleased for the most part. Well, within reason of course.
296
297Sliding out of the massive vehicle, he felt over his side as he felt a twinge of pain. Clearly, his side was going to be a pain for quite some time, pun definitely intended. After a quick breather, he himself headed inside to get some rest and maybe prepare for his little plan.
298
299Just inside, sitting in the living room, was Snowbolt. She was looking over a map and making notes on it and a notepad she had right next to it on the coffee table. Clearly, she had plans of her own as well. With curiosity getting the better of him, he walked over to see what was up.
300
301The white alicorn looked up to see the gray unicorn standing nearby. She motioned with her head to the left at a chair. It was clear that she was still thinking and figuring things out, so there wouldn't be anything to say just yet.
302
303“What are you doing?†Affetto finally asked after sitting for nearly 20 minutes.
304
305“Looking over San Andreas and trying to determine my best course of action. I've got a few little shits that need taken care of, and then of course I have to get rid of Twilight and a few of the other more prominent players out here.â€
306
307“I might get myself a home out here. I'm going to try and date Aurora.....for life,†he noted as he saw her drop the pencil she had been using. She seemed to be somewhere between thoughtful and slightly horrified.
308
309“Well,†she finally noted, “It's your life. Just remember what me and Doc said about pissing her off.â€
310
311“Any suggestions to help her gain weight?â€
312
313Snowbolt again seemed rather nervous, but she did answer after some hesitation. “Look, as long as she feels good and is complimented, she won't be bothered too much. Don't be forceful or anything, lest you yourself make her fat when she eats your body......literally.â€
314
315“Any chance of taking her out tonight?â€
316
317“Affetto, why are you asking me these sorts of questions? Some of the questions I can understand, but most of these are questions best reserved for the one you want to date. Look, she resides up in Paleto Bay currently. She's not much of an in town kind of girl.â€
318
319“That's a little ways north, isn't it?â€
320
321“Yeah, just take the main freeway north and you should hit it after about three hours or so. Get off at exit 71. It's about halfway between here and San Fierro.â€
322
323Standing up, the gray furred unicorn nodded and then started to leave when Snowbolt snapped her fingers. Turning around, he saw her smiling as she stared at him.
324
325“Question. How you going to get there?â€
326
327Affetto raised a finger as he was about to answer when he realized he had no car. Well, he did own a car, several in fact. But, none of the cars he actually owned were here. Every single one was back in Liberty City. As such, they were a little hard to access. He'd also never gotten a chance to get a rental car since Snowbolt had picked him up from the airport, so all he really had access to in the ways of anything with wheels belonged to her.
328
329“I guess I should ask if I can borrow a car,†he noted as he facepalmed.
330
331The female alicorn just giggled as she clasped her hands together and then propped her elbows up on the coffee table as she leaned against her arms with her chin resting on the backs of her hands. “That would probably be an adequate statement. And before you ask properly and officially, I'll go ahead and answer. Yes, you can borrow one of my cars. Take the Bentley, it's not as flashy.â€
332
333“Flashy?†Affetto asked, rather curiously.
334
335“Aurora isn't a fan of them high dollar and high performance sports cars. She feels that anyone showing up to pick up a girl in a bright and flashy sports car has only sex on their mind. Now, you and I both know that that isn't true, but that's still how she is. Kind of ironic since I'm fairly certain she adores fast cars. But, that's just what I've heard. Besides, a Bentley is fast without being flashy, especially the sedans.â€
336
337As Affetto nodded and headed towards the nearby garage, he saw the black pegasus from before. “Just head out front, we'll bring the car to you.â€
338
339Making gestures to more or less say 'fair enough' nonverbally, he made his way out front. Standing before the driveway, he saw a big black Bentley Flying Spur. Affetto could hear the engine noise and knew that this was the W12 model, a 200 mile per hour monster.
340
341Out stepped a gray pegasus who even held the door open as Affetto walked around the front of the car and then slid in. The pegasus shut the door and motioned for Affetto to roll the window down.
342
343“The boss is letting you use this car for your little date and whatever else you have planned. But, keep in mind, she is very meticulous about her cars. You use it, you clean it and fill it up with gas, you understand?â€
344
345“Sounds fair,†he noted as the pegasus seemed to have more to say.
346
347“One more thing, don't wreck the car. Because, unless you fully have support from Aurora, which I doubt........your ass will be grass and Snowbolt will be a lawnmower.â€
348
349Well, that certainly made things crystal clear. “Look, I'm not going to wreck the car on purpose. I'll even pay for any damages that happen if they do happen.â€
350
351“Whirlwind, don't scare him,†Snowbolt stated as she exited the house. “Look, just enjoy yourself. I know you wouldn't do anything to wreck the car. So, if it did get wrecked, it would largely mean that you were not at fault. Of course, I'm willing to forgive and forget for extenuating circumstances, but do not push your luck. So, don't be a pussy, just be wary.â€
352
353That really didn't make him feel all that better, so he just simply nodded and headed on his way. The easiest way to get onto the freeway was to actually backtrack into town a bit and then get on it there. Merging onto the freeway was easy, but making it out of Los Santos proved a bit tricky thanks to the onrush of traffic heading north. Why did this road always seem to be so damn busy?
354
355Slowly but surely, he made his way north as the traffic began to lighten up. Being able to actually move some, Affetto pressed the pedal to the floor to pick up a bit more speed. Overtaking a semi truck, he next overtakes a slower moving Ford Transit cargo van.
356
357As he gets himself comfortable for the long drive, he again finds himself thinking about what had occurred earlier. Again, the thoughts of the two beings he had killed permeated his mind. Over the past few hours, he had only been able to think about two things. The first was those two poor ponies he had killed (maybe not so poor or innocent). The second was of course Aurora. Obviously, the second thought was certainly the more pleasant one to think about.
358
359As the miles began to fade, one after the other, he began to really think about what he was doing. Sure, he knew he was driving up north to ask some crime syndicate head for a date, but what was he really doing? Affetto had always been a pony that was absolutely certain about what he wanted and what he desired. Almost every single thing he desired was relatively easy to get, and all nice and legal too. In this instance, things were not so cut and dry. Well, he could legally date Aurora without any problem. Had he seen her when not in that particular situation, things might have really gone better. Or perhaps not. She would still be the head of a criminal organization and it would be something that he would find out about eventually.
360
361Deciding to take a gamble, he decided to call up another friend of his that was back in Liberty City. The friend in question was a police officer and he might be able to offer up some pointers. Because, in all honesty, Affetto had some serious doubts but also some serious desires.
362
363“Hey, Gold Badge, I need some help,†he stated over the bluetooth for his own cellular phone. He was glad he'd always kept it handy in his vest or pants pocket.
364
365“Alfie, what's the deal? I heard you headed out to Los Santos for a little rest and relaxation.â€
366
367“Yeah, well, I wish I could say I've been resting and relaxing the past day and a half. A lot of stuff has happened and apparently, my friend Snowbolt is friends with some changeling. Not that I'm against such friendships, as I am certainly no bigot. But.....some of the folks I've come across say that she is the head of some crime syndicate or something.â€
368
369“Sounds like Aurora Industry,†his friend stated over his end. “Yeah, police have tried several times to bust her without any success. But, I'll give you this, she is one hell of a hot mare! Well.......a hot whatever she is.â€
370
371There was a long pause as Affetto tried to think of what to say. He was kind of debating on whether he should tell his friend what had happened and what Snowbolt was actually into. But, he answered before Affetto could say anything else just yet.
372
373“I've also heard that our mutual friend Snowbolt is into some deep shit. Not quite sure what, but I've heard that the DEA and ATF are both very interested in her. You might want to be careful.â€
374
375“So, be careful in that I keep my nose out of her business or be careful in telling you guys if I see anything?â€
376
377“Affetto, what's the real reason you called me?â€
378
379“Look, I gave my word to Snowbolt that whatever I saw, I'd keep it to myself. The main reason I called is that I want to date this Aurora and have her all for myself. I'm just not sure how to go about doing this. Snowbolt said some things that made me nervous, but she also said some things that seemed helpful. Look, from a guy that has never had a date to a guy that has been married for 15 years, I'm looking for some help.â€
380
381Again, there was another long pause as though his friend were contemplating either an answer or some statement to try and make him confess to anything. However, it seemed that his friend was looking for something to say in regards to the former, which was fortunate.
382
383“Not sure how to really help you there. In most cases, I'd just say be yourself. I just looked up some files on this Aurora chick and the information is sporadic and sketchy at best. It seems she has no real ties to anything illegal, but that never means anything. If Snowbolt said to be wary, I'd probably be wary.â€
384
385“What if I wanted her to simply leave everything behind and be with me for the rest of our natural lives?â€
386
387“Can't answer that. Not even sure how to answer that! Look, just tell her the truth. Sure, it may get you killed given her supposed background, but then again......it could get you killed with any female given how they are.â€
388
389Affetto was mentally facepalming at this point. Not only had Snowbolt not been as helpful as he had hoped, but now another friend was being equally unhelpful. And it wasn't necessarily their fault or his, it was just his general lack of knowledge in such things. He'd been a business pony and a musician first and foremost. He had some general knowledge for cars and other such things, but that was mainly from an outsider view of sorts.
390
391“Look, what I am sure of is that Aurora is a very career driven individual. I don't think she'll be too willing to give that up without some serious motivation to do so. As to what her business is, I have no idea. What it says here doesn't say much outside of what seems to be the fashion industry, which I know absolutely nothing about. Hell, you can even have my wife confirm that for you.â€
392
393That last sentence was clearly a joke, but Affetto wasn't in a very humorous mood as he still had a lot on his mind. He had again broken the law by deciding to remain silent on some things that had happened. But, he had sort of promised Snowbolt that he would keep quiet, so he intended to do just that. After all, he was not known for breaking his promises.
394
395“Well, thanks for the help. I personally don't think it helped too much, but maybe it's because I'm just going about this whole thing the wrong way,†Affetto stated.
396
397“Well, I did what I could. In regards to anything else going on, don't feel you have to keep a secret if you feel it is wrong. I know you have some standards in place for yourself about not breaking promises and stuff, which is noble, but there is a point where you just have to ask yourself on whether it is worth it or not.â€
398
399“Gold, I made a promise to Snowbolt to keep her business information a secret. I don't readily share my information about my business.â€
400
401“Well, okay, but I'll always be here if you need me for anything else.â€
402
403Hanging up, Affetto put a bit more of his focus on the road ahead. Sighing, he bit his tongue and moved into the fast lane to overtake an old Chevrolet S10 pickup and a newer Mazda 5s wagon. Moving back towards the slower lane, he simply allowed himself to just blank himself out. He needed to clear his mind so he could just drive and make it up to Paleto Bay without any issues.
404
405Fortunately, nothing happened on the drive up apart from his own mind driving him a little crazy. He just couldn't stop thinking about what all had happened so far. Maybe his mind would stop bugging him once he had something to fully divert his attention towards.
406
407Getting off the freeway, he glanced at the clock on the car stereo. It was almost 7 in the evening. That was about right given when he had left Los Santos. He managed a quick glance around and realized that the area currently surrounding him was filled with trees. It was a nice and lush coniferous forest.
408
409Pulling out onto a two lane road, he headed for the nearby town and was forced to dodge a moron in a bright red Dodge Ram pickup. As he entered the town proper, he looked around and then noticed a large house at the end of a driveway back amongst some trees.
410
411Backing up a few feet, he turned left into the driveway as he headed back towards the house. He could see the ocean just beyond it through the trees some. Halfway down the driveway, he began to wonder if he had the right house or not since he had never really bothered to get an exact address.
412
413Stopping the car, he shifted into reverse when he spotted a black and new Range Rover pull up behind him. The passenger door opened as a changeling dressed in a suit and tie approached the passenger side of the car. He merely tapped on the window to alert Affetto to roll it down.
414
415“What business do you have here?â€
416
417“Well, I apparently have the correct address. I want to try and court Aurora.â€
418
419The changeling didn't say anything as he crossed his arms before looking back towards the SUV. He gave a sheepish set of gestures and a shrug before motioning to Affetto to continue on as he started back towards the Range Rover.
420
421Shifting into drive, Affetto put his foot over the gas pedal again and continued on up to where the house stood. Another Range Rover was spotted near the garage entrance with a big Nissan Titan pickup that had a mounted gun in the back that was partially concealed just on the other side of the garage in some trees. Clearly, these guys didn't fool around.
422
423Stepping out of the car once he had parked it, Affetto shut the door and was about to head up to the front door when said front door opened and out walked Aurora in a beautiful red dress. She was flanked by two bodyguards as she approached the sedan.
424
425“Bentley Flying Spur W12, capable of 200 miles per hour and doing 0-60 in just 4.3 seconds. Fast, but definitely not flashy. Though, even if you did show up in something flashy like one of those extreme supercars your friend loves to drive, I would still probably give you the time of day for a conversation at the very least. Unlike your friend, you are not a criminal by nature. To be honest, I really can respect that. In the most general term, neither am I. Changeling laws are a bit different and we have a completely different use for some of the drugs you ponies become so addicted to.â€
426
427Affetto stood there, a bit speechless and stupefied at what had just been said. Partially because he didn't understand it, and partially because she had said most of her own work was largely legitimate. That couldn't be true........could it?
428
429“Given what happened earlier today, you may find it hard to believe, but all those kills were completely legal. Snowbolt thinks otherwise. She also thinks I intend to help her take over Los Santos and remove obstacles in her path. To be clear, I couldn't care less about what she does with the city. I'll never officially live there and never really go there unless I have to. So, her criminal activities are none of my concern. I just want access to spice and cocaine, two drugs that are illegal to ponies but perfectly legal to changelings because of how we use them. Unlike with ponies, those drugs don't exactly have the same effect. In fact, they are little more than herbs and spices used to make food better. Instead, we take them during bouts of therapy sessions to feed on the negative emotions without making them so negative. And, like ponies, we eat real food too.â€
430
431Well, that made some sense, but he was still kind of clueless about what all was going on. But, at least he knew why there wasn't much on her. Everything that folks thought was illegal that she was doing turned out to be legal.
432
433“The police hound me and visit me fairly frequently asking me about the drugs. I merely point out that as long as I am not selling to ponies, I am not breaking the law. Besides, I don't really sell the drugs personally. A friend of mine delivers shipments of the drugs to certain changeling spas where our kind helps your kind. I merely get 20 percent of the profits and make most of my money off of making the finest new clothes for models, nighttime shenanigans, and the beach. Ever since Rarity left the market, I've had very little real competition.â€
434
435Again, Affetto was left standing there, feeling completely uncertain about just what he should actually say on the matter. So, since he was unsure on what to say, he said nothing. It may have seemed a little awkward, and he certainly felt a little awkward, but Aurora seemed perfectly fine at least.
436
437“Don't worry so much, I won't bite.....hard. I know some folks have said I have a reputation of consuming those that offend me. Which.....may not be so false, but the beings are still very much alive, just not who they were beforehand because of the injustice I felt was done. What I did as justice dealt was perfectly legal according to changeling laws, and by basis, your laws as well. To be perfectly honest, I really hate killing, but it is sometimes necessary. With the folks that Snowbolt and them deal with in vast numbers, killing is usually the only recourse, so I will have no part apart from supervision. And, I'll make damn sure I have everything covered so that it is completely legal.â€
438
439“So, you're not in charge of a big criminal empire or syndicate?†That was clearly a poor use of words. Well, she may have claimed to not be too overly interested in killing folks, but she might very well make an exception in his case.
440
441“Depends on what your definition of one is. In the strictest sense, not really. I certainly have my moments when I or the folks that work for me could definitely be in that category, but generally we are mostly legit. Most folks think we're a criminal organization, and that's perfectly fine, since it means most folks that would otherwise hound us generally leave us alone.â€
442
443After that little statement, she motioned for her bodyguards to go somewhere else. It was clear that the next bit of the conversation was one she intended for his ears only.
444
445“The two folks you killed were legal kills, not murder. I have a file cabinet full of documents proving that all those slayed at that farm were perfectly legal to kill. If any were captured, I'd have personally turned them over to the police. But, the police were fairly aware that based on the circumstances, they were not to expect any survivors and that the ponies manufacturing the drugs would be delivering stuff to me for the spas. Anything else that they make and sell will be counted against them if they are caught. Personally, I'd rather have those ponies run things, since it is one less thing I have to manage as closely.â€
446
447“So, I didn't break any laws?†Affetto asked, making sure he had everything right.
448
449“No, you didn't. Every so often, I am tasked or I request to be tasked with dealing with some group of not so decent ponies. Once tasked, I either do so myself or hire someone to do it for me. Snowbolt has proven reliable and useful, and in doing this stuff the police generally overlook a lot of what she does. However, there will one day come a time when she winds up on the line. Twilight and her friends are already there, but the police are holding off on doing anything for now because of how dangerous that would be.â€
450
451Affetto just nodded. The gray unicorn then adjusted his clothing some so that it was a little more comfortable for the time being.
452
453“Are they even who they say they are?â€
454
455“Possibly, possibly not,†Aurora noted as she walked over towards where the SUV and pickup with the mounted gun were. “Twilight and her friends came out here a while ago to help the locals deal with the rampant degree of crime. They disappeared shortly after arriving and subsequently reappeared. Other friends and family members came out at their request and were quickly drug into this.....'world'. Sunset Shimmer and Starlight Glimmer are largely believed to have been killed off, but there are no exact details on just what happened. In truth, even Rainbow and Pinkie are largely absent. They're believed to be their own bosses someplace or doing their own thing, but I haven't seen either since Twilight, Applejack, and Rarity returned. Fluttershy appeared sometime after those three returned, but she doesn't leave the park much.........and is very dangerous.â€
456
457Affetto just sighed and shook his head before sitting on the hood of the Bentley he had driven up in. He really hoped that he didn't have to deal with all of this.
458
459“Twilight and her friends are none of your concern really. Snowbolt may be a concern of yours given how she does things, but not the others. Currently, they aren't even really a concern of mine since the government hasn't yet tasked me to deal with them. But, the reason my guards are so well armed is simply because I don't trust the leaders of Los Santos, and I have little trust for the leaders of the Los Santos underworld. So please, stay as you are and try to not be like Snowbolt.â€
460
461“Snowbolt mentioned you really enjoyed compliments over your form and that you dated her and a doctor once before.â€
462
463“To be fair, everyone enjoys compliments about their form. She did probably mention my extreme willingness to show myself naked to folks for their admiration.......which isn't false. But, in regards to the dating........well, I did go out a few times with Snowbolt, never went too far into the relationship. The doctor I assume is a buck, works with Snowbolt for private matters.......him I also dated. With him, there was a bit more of a relationship, but it didn't go too far either. He was too obsessed with sex and really didn't like being called out on it. I'll be the first to admit I can be promiscuous, but I'm really not quite like he was. I do have limits and there are times and places for such activities. Besides, I got the feeling he kind of preferred males anyways.â€
464
465That kind of made Affetto feel a little uneasy, but the feeling quickly passed as his attention was once again diverted to the female currently within his immediate vicinity. “Any chance that you and I could go on some dates?â€
466
467“I was wondering when you were going to ask. But, to answer the question, yes. Don't think you're going to immediately get into my pants, but we can go on a few dates. The options of where to go and what to do up here is a bit limited, but teleportation isn't completely out of the question. I'm sure you've heard of teleport pads?â€
468
469“Yeah, kind of expensive, even for me,†he noted.
470
471“Well, to build, not to use. They're utilized like other methods of transport, but are quite expensive as you said, so they are typically only built in airports or train stations or other areas for quick teleports. And, well, only certain species can use them. Others can, they just need a certain member of a certain species with them in order to use it. But, since I am one of the species that can use them without a teleport conductor, I can access any teleportation pad in Los Santos. Which are at most bus and train stations.â€
472
473Nodding, the gray furred unicorn began to follow the changeling mare as she led him inside and then up a flight of stairs that was just inside the door to the right. After going up three floors, the two equine figures walked towards a large pad that was centered in a far left corner of the room.
474
475“The electricity to run this thing is beyond expensive, but the overall bill isn't too bad so long as I don't use it a ridiculous amount of times. So, we'll use this twice today. Arrival is far cheaper than leaving, since it takes less power to activate.â€
476
477“I thought it was magic based?â€
478
479“It is partially magic based as magic is required to initiate teleport, but the machine uses a lot of electricity to connect to another teleport pad to make a safe and easy teleport. After all, teleporting into a wall would not be a good thing.â€
480
481Affetto didn't answer, but he did mentally note that that was indeed bad. Stepping onto the pad with her, he saw images on a nearby terminal as she scanned possible locations to teleport to. He was also curious about why she was alternating between a few possible teleport pads.
482
483“The reason I am taking a little longer to decide is that I want to give you the option to acquire a vehicle so that you do not have to overly rely on your friend for transportation. If she starts to go south, it would be particularly bad for you. You can even store your new vehicle here if you like.â€
484
485Affetto was stunned. “You're letting me move in?â€
486
487“Into the house, not my bedroom,†she stated, making sure he knew his place. He'd even gotten a backward glance with a somewhat sly smirk on it as she said that.
488
489Well, regardless, it seemed he had a way out of an extremely uncomfortable situation. He did indeed view Snowbolt as a friend, but if he didn't have to be a vicious killer, he wasn't about to be. That being said though, he still had a rather odd sensation from the two kills he had performed earlier. It just refused to leave him. He wasn't sure if that was a good or a bad thing given how he had kept himself away from such things for his entire life.
490
491As he was musing, the teleport began as Aurora used her magic to start the connection and then applied a bit more when necessary to finish and initiate the teleport as the pad they were standing on connected to another somewhere in Los Santos.
492
493Upon arriving, Affetto stepped off the pad as a white unicorn mare gave him a nod and a cheerful greeting. “Welcome to Los Santos Miss Industry. And welcome to you, handsome.â€
494
495“Most of the conductors here know me from my occasional visits. Not sure how as I've only ever hit each teleport pad once really. I think I've hit maybe three or four more than once. I've never really bothered to count as I rarely visit the town. I prefer my privacy.â€
496
497Affetto just nodded to that. He kind of understood the desire for privacy, but he wasn't so sure that sheltering oneself most of the time was really maintaining one's privacy. But, he wasn't about to judge since she was a changeling and they probably had different views on what was private and what wasn't.
498
499As they walked through the building, Affetto soon realized that this was a bus station that was right around downtown Los Santos. He even had a nice view of a nearby park that was filled with ponies and even a few zebras. It was also now that he finally noticed that Aurora was taller than him by a head at least. His eyes were level with her breasts, which was interesting since he wasn't exactly short at 6'2.
500
501Exiting the bus station, Affetto and Aurora crossed the street over to where the park was. Aurora took the lead as she seemed to know precisely where she wanted to go. Affetto was a polite and elegant kind of stallion, so he followed as best as he could while trying to still look halfway decent. He didn't mind getting dirty if the situation called for it, but he still preferred to try and look nice most of the time.
502
503It was then he took notice of a dealership that they were walking to. Specifically, it was a Maserati dealership. Like most dealerships placed in very urban areas, all the cars were inside a building space converted into a showroom.
504
505As they stepped through the door, Affetto had to stop. Just what was going on? He saw that Aurora noticed him stop as she turned around. She crossed her arms and simply smiled, “I'm not buying anything. I'm fairly certain you can afford one of these, or should we find something cheaper?â€
506
507“I can easily afford the cars here, I'm just trying to figure out what the deal is. We teleported here and you said we were going to teleport back. Explain to me how we're going to get my new car back if we teleport. You said it yourself that they only work for small things. Ponies, zebras, and whatever else plus whatever they are wearing, carrying, or pulling. I'm not saying that they cannot teleport a car, but I don't know where a pad big enough exists and the pad you have in your home doesn't even begin to cover the entire space a car would cover, especially one of these.â€
508
509“Well, I had a couple of plans in mind. For either of them, it would be best if you actually had a car of your own here. I chose this place since you seemed to have a fondness for luxury sports cars. And, well, so do I. But, the first plan is that we get you a car and use it as necessary here. After that, we simply store the car at a local warehouse I have for you to come back and get at your leisure. The second plan is that we don't use the teleport pad and you drive me home after our night out on the town.â€
510
511Stroking his chin, he could certainly agree with the logic. Running his other hand through his black hair, he thought about his options. He was kind of planning on maybe getting a place local to Los Santos itself to give himself more options. However, living around a large city filled with citizens was not something Aurora seemed interested in. She preferred something that was much more rural and scenic to the hustle and bustle of a big city.
512
513“Well, if I'm going to buy a car and drive it a bit, I'd like it to stand out a bit more than a Maserati. Maseratis have become so bland nowadays. Besides, I'd rather have 707 horses under the hood instead. 2016 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat. And it just so happens that a local dealer has one, or did,†he stated as he had brought up his phone and began tapping and typing.
514
515Aurora was impressed. The tall white changeling mare ran a hand through her vibrant and flowing blonde hair before putting both hands on her hips. Her lovely red dress was still accentuating those curves of hers. If only they were bigger and there were more of them. Some love handles would also be a nice touch too. But, maybe he was barking up the wrong tree.
516
517“Well then, let's go pick up your new car, get it plated, and then you get to take me out on a date. So, tell me, what are your plans to woo me?â€
518
519Ooh, that was one of those questions in which every single answer is a double-edged sword. Without proper care in answering it, you could find yourself in deep trouble. Still, he was fairly certain he could pull out everything and give her a wonderful night out.
520
521“Well, I figure we could start with a movie or maybe even go to the local theater for a show. Afterwards, we could go to one of your favorite restaurants, my treat. And then, on the way back to your house, maybe we could stop at one of your favorite fast food places for something nice and tasty.â€
522
523“Well, I'm game for all of it. Though, when we stop at the fast food place, is it going to be for dessert or something more?â€
524
525“Whatever you want,†Affetto replied quickly.
526
527“Good answer,†the changeling mare noted as she waved her finger at the unicorn stallion.
528
529Exiting the Maserati dealership, the pair caught a bus to a different part of town so that they could pick up the Charger. Upon arriving at the dealership, which was a Dodge, Chrysler, Jeep, and Ram dealership, Affetto took the lead and led Aurora to the showroom. Inside was a beautiful dark blue 2016 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat that was sold as of 40 minutes ago thanks to Affetto's fast actions and quick work on his phone.
530
53130 minutes of additional paperwork later, the pair left the dealer in the brand new sedan. Car in hand, the next stop was the local motor vehicle department to get the car plated. Paying a little extra, Affetto got one of those vanity plates with a custom name on it.
532
533So, with the car, the insurance (which he'd gotten over the phone), and a proper license plate, the date could officially begin. He'd noted about starting with a movie or something at the local theater, but he wasn't sure which she'd prefer. In truth, he wanted something that potentially involved snacks or something when she came out with an idea that really seemed to completely cover that.
534
535“Hey, the fair is here! They've always got something interesting going on. And it just started too!â€
536
537That was the giddy voice that was usually accompanied by the pee-pee dance. Or it would had they not just climbed back into the Charger. “You want to go there instead of the theater?â€
538
539“YES!!â€
540
541Well, that was an obvious answer. So, with a game plan in mind now, he started the car up and headed for the exit to the parking lot. “So, is this going to be an all week thing?â€
542
543“If you are offering to take me every day this week, I'll go ahead and skip the formalities and just say 'yes' right now. You don't mind, do you?â€
544
545Affetto didn't mind at all, since the fair was perhaps one of the most perfect places to initiate a plan of sorts to get her gaining weight. Lots of food that is really good and very high in calories. He'd already heard from the doctor and Snowbolt that she had a love of fast food. Given what fast food was and that fair food wasn't that different in taste (though it was oftentimes better quality (usually)), he figured he could get her consuming a bit more than she normally would to help expand that wonderful waistline.
546
547Shifting gears, he pushed the pedal closer to the floor as he moved to the left lane. He then realized he really didn't know where the fair was from their current location. That was information that he kind of needed to know. He knew of Los Santos, and had visited a few times, but he didn't know it. It was a massive city with a maze of intertwining streets.
548
549“Hey, where's the fairgrounds from here?â€
550
551“Use the GPS,†Aurora replied and then input the destination into the GPS in her phone. She then set it up on the dashboard of the car and waved her hand as if to say, 'voila'.
552
553Shaking his head at the smart-ass remark, Affetto wisely kept his mouth shut as he moved to the right lane and turned right on one of the cross streets. Occasionally glancing towards the phone to get a view of the GPS, the unicorn stayed on course until the traffic became rather dense. The reason for that was obvious since he could see some of the rides in the fairgrounds from where they sat.
554
555“There's a parking garage over there,†Aurora noted and indicated to the right, which was handy since they were in the far right lane.
556
557Looking to where the white changeling mare was pointing, Affetto moved as the traffic did and then flicked on the right blinker. As he pulled into the garage, he got a ticket to pay for later as he entered the garage.
558
559Given what was happening, he wasn't too surprised to find a great many parking spaces filled. However, a few floors down (it went both up and down), he found a nice spot between a green Chevrolet Express passenger van and a black Cadillac Escalade ESV SUV.
560
561After exiting the car, the pair headed up to one of the entrances/exits and made their way down the street on the sidewalk. Good thing they had pulled into the garage, because this was definitely faster than trying to drive through that mess that was currently on the street.
562
563“Something bothering you?â€
564
565Aurora's question caught him a bit off guard, but not too off guard that he floundered to answer the question with any slowness or awkwardness that might make him seem guilty of something.
566
567“Kind of, but nothing you can really help with. It involves my friend and an inevitable bridge I'll have to cross.†That wasn't precisely what was bothering him at the time, but it wasn't exactly false either.
568
569She nodded and brushed a few blonde strands of hair from her face as she walked. Keeping in time with her, he continued to walk beside her and talk as they soon approached the entrance to the fairgrounds.
570
571Pulling out a couple of five dollar bills, he handed them over and both got a sort of bracelet thing that let the folks running the entrance know who had paid and who hadn't. This enabled folks to leave and then reenter without having to pay a second time.
572
573As they entered, already the smells of all the food from the various concession stands was wafting about in the air. Affetto himself found his own mouth watering at the wonderful smells. He was usually quite reserved himself, but these smells were almost intoxicating.
574
575“Mmm, now this is the place to be. Although, after a week of action at the fair, I'll probably have to double my workout regiment just to make sure the additional weight I am likely to acquire doesn't stick around for the long run.â€
576
577“I got a question. What if, hypothetically, you found somepony that perhaps enjoyed a softer figure?â€
578
579In regards to who he meant seemed obvious, but she didn't attempt to point it out because she either didn't assume it was him to whom he was referring or she figured it was polite to not call it out for one reason or another.
580
581“Well, I'd say that the best way to make sure I keep the weight is to be honest. I know that beauty has many shapes as well as sizes. I've met a few folks that enjoy bigger females. Your friend Snowbolt is one of them. She was actually pretty straightforward about that, which was nice. Though, her basic honesty was about all that she had going for her. But, to be perfectly honest, I am not against gaining weight as I kind of just said, but most folks prefer a slimmer female. Not that I'm trying to attract most, just that perfect catch. And, since most folks prefer one thing, it is usually best to stick with what is most preferred until you start dating. During that time, you can learn things and either stick to your guns of what you prefer to be or change a bit to make them happy, a compromise if you will. For me, I'm not bothered at all by being skinny, muscular, or fat. Each has its own set of pros and cons.â€
582
583Certainly made sense as far as Affetto thought. Not only did he pick a tall girl to be interested in, he picked one that was actually quite intelligent. Not that he had any complaints about that. In fact, he preferred a female with some brains as opposed to one of the more common daft bimbos that would walk around thinking that they were all that simply because they were twigs with breasts.
584
585And so, the pair began to explore the fair some. Looking at the various odds and ends some folks were trying to sell, Affetto even offered to buy a few of the trinkets that Aurora had taken interest in. She politely refused and put the items back. Though, she did buy a metal crafted dragon that she couldn't just leave behind.
586
587Walking past a large concession stand with various fried pastries, Affetto stopped and decided to get in line. Aurora wasn't gone from his side for more than a few seconds as she stepped up beside him.
588
589“What are you going to get me?â€
590
591“Whatever you want,†he replied only to hear her laugh.
592
593“Good answer, but it becomes less so the more you use it.†Seeing his face, she laughed again. “Don't worry, I know you are not a mind reader. I'm just teasing you a bit. Look, just get me a funnel cake and a couple of elephant ears. I'm looking forward to splurging a bit.â€
594
595Affetto nodded as Aurora headed over to a nearby set of tables to sit down. He stood in line for several long minutes as there were a few customers ahead of him getting food and/or drinks from this particular concession stand. Once it was his turn, he ordered a funnel cake and two elephant ears for Aurora as well as a big cup of lemonade. He then ordered himself a couple of their freshly made jelly donuts and a Pepsi.
596
597Because of the items, he had to made a few trips. So, for the first trip, he carried over the drinks. The second trip involved carrying over the food. Aurora noted his choice of getting her a lemonade and himself a soda. This kind of made him squirm a bit internally till she told him most changelings had little love for soda. The carbonation was more than a little painful when swallowed.
598
599As she pulled apart the funnel cake and ate it, Affetto found himself just watching her. Sure, the gray unicorn was also eating since he had a couple of jelly donuts, but he was eating while watching her eat. He wasn't even speaking, just watching.
600
601“Mmm, this stuff is pretty good. You know what, if you're honest about some things, I may be inclined to try them out for you. But, that doesn't necessarily mean that we'll be an item that is dating. It just means I'm willing to go out with you and have fun. Though, a smart male might utilize such a thing to work his way in. Basically, I am giving you a chance to try to both woo and wow me. Succeed, and you may very well have a girlfriend or perhaps something more. Fail, and well, I guess you kind of know where that ends.â€
602
603He nodded and wondered what he could do to not fail miserably and drive her off. It shouldn't be too terribly hard to get her to stay, especially if he played his cards right and showed her the kind of stallion he really was. But, then again, maybe she was a rather evil character that preferred a bad male. For now, he would just be himself and make changes down the road if necessary.
604
605As he finished up the two donuts he had ordered, he took a drink of his Pepsi and slurped the soda through the straw of his cup. Aurora had finished the funnel cake and was currently working on the elephant ears. It was clear she really enjoyed the delicious fried pastries.
606
607Such information was very useful to have, as it meant that he had the beginnings of a list of fattening foods that he could get her to eat on a regular basis. And maybe, just maybe, get her to put on some serious poundage thanks to the consumption of these fattening foods. Though, if he truly wanted her to be huge, he'd really have to work on getting her such food items more than just the three meals of the day. Large snacks between the meals as well as a big late night meal would be required. But, perhaps some of those options would need to wait a spell. After all, going all in too early could have it's own problems.
608
609When the pastries were polished off, the pair began to walk and explore some more. Aurora was still carrying the bag she had that had that unique metal crafted dragon statuette. And, as time went on, the statuette in the bag was soon joined by other odds and ends she had decided to acquire.
610
611Over the course of the time that they spent at the fair, they also stopped at a few other concession stands. Some because he wanted a snack or a drink, and others because she wanted a snack or a drink. Though, regardless of who was the reason that they stopped, Aurora got something every single time. As to whether it was doing something to her or not, he couldn't be sure. But, he was fairly certain that she seemed more than a little full going by her facial expression when they had eaten a couple of large quesadillas from one of the stands. But still, regardless of how she felt, she ate. Definitely not something he would be complaining about, especially with his preferences towards larger females.
612
613Sitting down on a bench somewhere near the center, Affetto leaned back as Aurora just tried to keep herself comfortable. That red dress still looked pretty loose, but it was clear that her stomach was more than a little full.
614
615“Been having fun so far?†Affetto asked a bit curiously. Perhaps the question was a little stupid and redundant, he was still curious and wanted to know the actual answer if at all possible.
616
617“So far, yes I have. I'm a little stuffed, but then again, that happens a lot when I visit the fair. Probably the reason why I visit it so infrequently these days. After all, us females have to maintain our superb figures. The reason why......because the public expects us to. Kind of a silly reason, but it is still a silly reason that keeps most females following it mindlessly like so many sheep. It's a herd mentality even though none of us really exist in herds anymore.â€
618
619“Are you ready to leave and go home? I am game to stay for as long as you are, but I'd kind of like to know so I can get a definite idea on when it would be best to try and make an attempt to get out of this place. What with the intense traffic and whatnot out on the streets surrounding this place.â€
620
621“Well, truth be told, I am ready to leave whenever you are. Though, I would like to stay a bit longer. Maybe find out about some of the future events that we haven't yet looked at in that little brochure thing we got at the entrance in regards to the fair, what is here, and what will be going on over the course of the week.â€
622
623“What about food?†Right after he had asked the question, he had regretted it. She didn't look or appear to get upset over the question, but it still made him excessively nervous to openly ask that question around a female. Particularly, this female.
624
625Smiling, Aurora made it perfectly clear that she found nothing wrong with his question or his apparent way of thinking. She was a little curious though in regards to why he seemed to be so interested to see her eat. In actuality, she had a good guess, but she just wanted to hear it from the horse's mouth. Which, in this case, was quite the literal representation.
626
627Still, Affetto was nervous, and his nervousness was not about to go away so easily. It was like when he had first come here and met up with Snowbolt. The series of events that happened had made him beyond nervous to be around the alicorn mare. Not that she'd ever do anything to him so long as he was reasonably quiet about a great many things, but he was still excessively nervous. He really preferred to think of every single being as innocent, but he knew and was fast learning that such things were not necessarily true.
628
629After they had sat for about twenty minutes, the pair got up and continued their trek around the fair. Affetto thought some of the rides seemed interesting, but he wasn't about to trust the rides at the fair seeing as though most were put up in about a day. But, that didn't make them any less interesting to look at and contemplate riding. But he would still never ride one.
630
631Another reason to kind of avoid the rides was walking right beside him. Given how regularly Aurora had been eating since they had arrived at the fair, he really didn't feel like running the risk of an expulsion of anything. She had already shown that she was kind of green at a few points. Enough to warrant getting a Sprite to help aid her stomach some. That alone was reason enough to avoid most of the rides.
632
633Bypassing the rides apart from looking at a few, Affetto decided to try some of the games instead. He'd always been kind of fond of such things and usually liked to try his luck. Of course, he knew that a vast majority (if not all) of the games were rigged, but sometimes folks could get lucky and win when they really weren't supposed to. The reason being was that sometimes a person's skill could overcome any setup that deceitful folks were willing to set up in order to make a buck. Or sometimes, in the rare occasions (probably less rare than Affetto thought), the game wasn't actually rigged at all.
634
635Still, despite all that, he would still play the games and he had a pretty good record of actually winning said games. Whether they had been rigged or not when he had played them, he wasn't sure. Well, maybe the ones he lost were ones he figured were rigged, but he never openly said it. There were a few reasons for that, one of which was that it was impolite.
636
637As he stepped up to one of the games, which happened to be of the ring toss variety. Paying the money for some rings, he stepped back and took aim. Naturally, his first few throws were misses. Either he missed completely or it bounced off. His fourth attempt earned him success as he got the ring around one of the pegs. His next two attempts also saw skilled tosses as he got two more ringers.
638
639“Well done,†Aurora complimented him, though she did try to keep talking to a minimum since she was feeling a little off still from eating so much over the course of the evening. But still, she was certainly having fun, especially since he was winning stuff for her. She really didn't mind that, even though she was really thinking he should be winning stuff for himself, but that was just her. She did admire his being a gentlepony.
640
641After a few more wins from the ring toss game and others, Affetto decided to call it a night. However, he still wanted to do one more thing before leaving. As the pair headed for the exit, he stopped at a concession stand and ordered a big basket of loaded french fries.
642
643Standing off to the side, Aurora knew he was possibly hungry, but doubted he had any intention of eating the fries. Perhaps the chicken sandwich he just ordered, but not the fries. That was another thing that was a little odd. Despite still being mostly ponies, they had started to develop a taste for certain meat products. Mostly avian or fish based, but still.
644
645“You want me to eat that big mound of fries? Well, I /will/, but /you/ are going to be taking it easy on the drive back. Also, no touching or poking or fondling or anything of that nature.â€
646
647He nodded, fully understanding that this was perhaps a compromise of sorts. If she was going to stuff herself to the point she felt a little sick or queasy, then he would have take things easy. In regards to the no touching statement, he kind of felt that was unnecessary as he hadn't expected to really be able to do all that just yet, it being kind of early in their dating sequence. Well, perhaps 'sequence' was the wrong word to utilize, but his mind was currently blank on what other words he could use in its place.
648
649As the food was prepared and handed to him, he took it over to some nearby tables and set it down. Having asked for a couple of bottled sodas, he went back to get them next along with some napkins and a plastic fork since it was clear that them loaded down french fries would be a bit too much and too messy to use anything other than utensils.
650
651Sitting back down as he passed over a Coke, he twisted open his own Coke bottle and took a drink before taking a bite of his sandwich. Aurora scooped up the first forkful of fries and took a bite. They were loaded down with meat sauce, cheese sauce, jalapeno peppers, and a very spicy hot sauce. She loved the intense flavors, but also noted how filling it was because of all the stuff loaded on top of it. She also wasn't about to forget that french fries were made from potatoes, and as such, loaded down with carbs. Carbs had the unique ability of making you feel fuller faster simply because of their genetic makeup and design.
652
653Each bite was like a complete obstacle course in and of itself. Each swallow was a marathon that seemed to last for days. It did feel interesting and perhaps a little good, but most of the feelings and sensations she had right now were not at all what she would describe as good or wonderful. Still, she knew that at least he was enjoying the scene she was giving, if she could even call it that.
654
655As the minutes ticked by, she worked on the mound of french fries and watched as it became smaller and smaller. Affetto had polished off his sandwich and the small handful of french fries that had come with it. Continuing to work on what remained of his Coke, he watched Aurora eat. Though he did occasionally glance around at the other folks walking about and enjoying the fair.
656
657When she finally finished it, Aurora felt like she should just head to bed, take some Pepto Bismol, and go to sleep. Well, maybe not precisely in that order, but definitely an order that worked so she could not feel like she was about to rip her own stomach out because of the discomforting sensations.
658
659As they walked from the entrance/exit of the fair and made their way back to the parking garage, Affetto had to wonder if maybe he went a bit too far. Sure, she had eaten everything he had gotten and more, but he still felt that perhaps he had pushed things a bit too far and that perhaps by doing so he had been taken down a notch or two.
660
661Aurora's own mind was berating her for eating so much and what it would potentially do to her figure. But, she quietly grumbled and noted that being big was neither bad nor full of discomfort, it just hadn't been prudent to be big. Her other problem was that she felt Affetto had indeed been a bit forceful in wanting her to eat, but she chocked that up to him being uncertain and wanting things a certain way. And since he knew not how to properly express such things, they came off as kind of passive aggressive like what had happened here at the fair.
662
663Entering the garage, Affetto paid for the parking and then led Aurora to where the car was parked. As they approached, he noted that the vehicles parked on either side of the Charger Hellcat had changed. There was now a Geo Metro hatchback and a BMW 550i sedan, going by the badge.
664
665Sliding in, the pair were soon on the move as they worked their way out of the parking garage and through the still jam packed streets surrounding the fairgrounds. It took nearly 40 minutes just to get onto a street leading away, and almost another half hour before they were finally able to drive more than a couple of miles per hour.
666
667Still, the traffic wasn't the best until they had gotten out of Los Santos completely. Picking up speed, Affetto kept to the passing lane until he had bypassed most of the traffic. As he moved back over to the slow lane, he set the cruise control and gave a sideways glance towards where Aurora sat in the passenger seat.
668
669The changeling mare still looked a bit stuffed from all the food she had consumed over the past few hours at the fair. The look on her face suggested she would probably never eat again, though he kind of doubted that. Aurora herself knew she would eat again at a different time, but no time soon.
670
671Sitting in the passenger seat, she rubbed her full belly and caressed her curves that were under and greatly accentuated by the red dress she was currently wearing. She did have a few thoughts, but was rather unsure about where to go with them and whether or not they would actually be worthwhile to pursue.
672
673“Remember, try to take it easy on the trip back. I don't think you want this stuff coming back up to greet your new car's interior.â€
674
675“I'm not driving crazy. I never have and never will. If you want a crazy driver that is more than willing to go nuts, try talking to my friend Snowbolt,†Affetto noted with a brief explanation.
676
677Aurora wasn't about to disagree with him since she knew just how right he was. She had ridden with Snowbolt a few times in so of those excessively high priced supercars she enjoyed driving. Each and every time they were on decent roads, she would let them loose so to speak. The gas pedal would be all the way to the floor, the brake pedal would be for the most part ignored, and the clutch would be getting quite the workout providing the car had one.
678
679The trip north to Paleto Bay from Los Santos took quite some time, several hours at least. Upon arriving, Affetto noticed that the Bentley he had borrowed was no longer there. Apparently, a message had been sent to Snowbolt explaining the situation to a degree with a request to come and pick up her car.
680
681Affetto was worried until he was told Snowbolt seemed happy that the unicorn had maybe succeeded in achieving the start of what he wanted. She was also happy that it meant she could keep a number of her other activities more secret. She wouldn't have to worry about her friend becoming a liability.
682
683In other words, Snowbolt was thrilled and was not at all suspicious. So, with a new car and all of his things transferred from Snowbolt's own mansion to this one, he had a few less things to worry about. But, he still had worries and uncertainties since he was a chronic worrier.
684
685Once inside the mansion that Aurora owned, Affetto found himself led to a fairly largish bedroom near the rear of the mansion with quite a view of the water. The changeling guard explained the room a bit, showed him where everything was, pointed out the wondrous view, and then quickly left.
686
687Stepping outside through the sliding glass doors at the back of his room, he couldn't help but notice the breathtaking view of the water. Looking back inside, he spotted a magazine cover on a table. The magazine cover went to a magazine rather unsurprisingly. What was surprising about it was the fact that the cover had Aurora on it, and it was a modeling magazine.
688
689That was interesting. It appeared she had been a model at one point in time, and that maybe she still was. He began to head for the door to go and find her to ask about it but stopped just as he reached the door itself. Did he really want to go and speak with her about something like this? Granted, the topic was mainly one out of curiosity since he saw a magazine that was out in the open with her picture on it. But, she had been a little out of it and had just wanted some time alone after arriving at the building they were currently in.
690
691Tossing it onto a nearby coffee table, he made his way out of what was to be his room and decided to explore the large mansion some. Seeing as though he really didn't have too much else to do at the moment, he figured he could at least get started on learning the layout of the house.
692
693And so, his first few days in Los Santos and the surrounding area had been the biggest few days of his life. But, he still had a decent amount of time to utilize and maybe even an option of setting up a new branch of his business out here. Los Santos was certainly one of the premier places to set up businesses.
694
695He'd also had his first real bout with romance......well, sort of. But, he still had high hopes and he fully intended to do whatever he could to make sure that it worked out. He'd just have to take it one day at a time and hope for the best.
696
697Utilizing the fair, Affetto made his beginning attempts of wooing Aurora. That first date of sorts had proven to have worked, but the changeling mare had been a little upset over eating so much. It was making Affetto maybe reconsider some of what he had planned, at least initially anyways.
698
699But, for the rest of the week, it mainly was a repeat of the first day with the exception that they drove down to Los Santos to go to the fair rather than using the teleporter pad. This also had the added benefit of giving them a few hours alone. No guards, no other people, no Snowbolt, no nothing. Just him, her, and the car he was driving. But, of course, the car was an inanimate object and not really sentient in any way, shape, or form. So, including it as an additional party or group member was of course rather redundant.
700
701So, each day featured a drive to Los Santos, parking the car, attending the fair, and then driving home. He did manage to get her to eat a bit on each trip. Well, some of it was his coaxing, most of it was her own desires since she seemed addicted to the food from the fair. And, if he was honest, he found it a bit addicting himself. There was something about the way they fried and made up the foods in those concessions stands that made them irresistible.
702
703However, he made some fairly strong mental attempts to more or less keep him from going too nuts over the foods. He had some help by working to coax Aurora to consume them instead. Each time he worked to try and coax/convince her to consume something, particularly if it was fairly large and/or just after she had consumed something else, she would give him a look that seemed to suggest he tread very carefully at best, or maybe to just stop lest something bad happen.
704
705Saturday, and like every other day in the week so far, it was a day to enjoy at the fair. Aurora and Affetto were walking around, seeing what there was to see that they hadn't seen in the past five days that they had come to the fair, which wasn't much to be honest.
706
707“You took me every day since I wanted to come every day,†Aurora began as she rubbed her chin thoughtfully. “There is only so much to see, but of course there are always events in the later part of the evening or afternoon at these sorts of festivals. So, why come every day? I love the fair and being able to mingle without being singled out too much.â€
708
709“I kind of like the food and seeing what the place has to offer.......providing the stuff isn't too overpriced. Not that anything here is beyond my capacity when it comes to what I can and can't afford.â€
710
711The changeling mare smirked and adjusted the nice button up blouse she had before adjusting the blue jeans she was wearing. “Speaking of food, you seemed to have an interest in me eating all I could of the most fattening options available. The first day, I kind of just allowed it since I was curious and it seemed kind of fun. The other days, you may have noticed I was less in a mood to allow it without a damn good reason, of which you really didn't give.â€
712
713“You still ate the stuff though,†Affetto noted. The gray furred unicorn was looking nervous as he adjusted his own clothes. He had a very nice green tee shirt and some jeans. It was cooler on this day than the rest, so he had opted for something a bit more substantial than shorts and a tee shirt. Plus, walking around outside at the fair was not exactly the best place to go to looking like you are dressed to impress.
714
715“Well, I ate it in part because I was hungry and in part because I knew you enjoyed it. But, I would like to make one thing perfectly clear. Insisting that I eat and eat until I feel sick is not a good way to treat me on dates. I'm willing to put forth a little effort to make you enjoy these as much as I do. After all, you do spend a lot of money here that I don't. You drive me down, deal with the stresses of traffic and mingle with a lot of people when you clearly feel a little uncomfortable about spending many hours on end with complete strangers that you know nothing about. In the business world, I understand that things are much different in regards to being around a bunch of people. So, I make things a little less uncomfortable for you by eating a bit more than what I normally would. I'm not a fan of it, but I am not necessarily disappointed in what the results will inevitably be if I keep this up. As I said before, I am not against big or being big. What I am against is coercing and this coaxing that you do. It's aggressive. Passive aggressive, but still aggressive.â€
716
717Aurora had also stopped walking when she started to speak her mind here. Affetto was left standing as she eyeballed him with a pair of eyes that seemed to be staring directly into his very soul. It was as if she was picking him apart piece by piece to try and get some solid answers.
718
719“Look, maybe I did go a little overboard in a few of the instances, but it's not like it's killed your figure or anything. Not that it ever would in my opinion,†he noted as he tried to explain himself only for her to put a hand up.
720
721When he had finally realized she wanted him to quiet down (which only took a moment), she took a deep breath. “Look, I've put up with some things this week, but I am unwilling to put up with anymore until I can get some answers. This was the reason why your friends had problems dating me, they were too aggressive or unable to really be honest. So, I want to ask you some questions, and I expect some honest answers. Is that okay?â€
722
723He nodded and sighed as he sat down on a nearby bench. The gray unicorn knew that eventually she would say something. In fact, he was a little surprised she hadn't said anything on any of the previous days when they came to the fair and he pressed his luck more or less.
724
725“I need to know, do you want a serious relationship or a one night fuck?â€
726
727“I'd rather have a serious relationship if at all possible. You get more than one night and you get someone that is both a friend and so much more.â€
728
729Aurora nodded, “Okay. What if I decided to stay skinny? What if I decided I didn't want to get fat because it's not my thing?â€
730
731That was a little harder to answer, but he was honest. “With you, I would probably stay. You are curvy, fun, and have a brilliant personality. I'd rather you get bigger, but I would settle to just living with you. Though, I would at least prefer some curves.â€
732
733Well, that seemed fair in her opinion. It was then that he asked a question. He pointed out that she was a changeling, or at least a hybrid of changeling and pony, and thus wondered if she could shapeshift some. In particular, he wondered if that meant expanding certain things.
734
735“I can do some. I can alter to fit beings of my approximate size so long as I have an image. Though, for what you would want, a spell may be more akin to getting what you desire. So, in regards to your question about expanding my assets, that I can. Although, I must state that it would be a temporary enlargement. Usually for a singular night or so. Longer and permanent are possible, but not overly practical in most situations. That's why you see a lot of unicorn strippers or go to strip joints that have skilled unicorns off to the side. They are there to make sure certain bits grow to get more money from the horny folks in the audience watching the spectacle.â€
736
737As he thought about what she said, he looked towards her as he anticipated another question or two from her. But, apparently, she was deciding to give him a moment to contemplate what she had already said. Letting him think about what other questions she could wind up asking that he would have to answer.
738
739“Okay, now this is the last question for now. I need to know, what is eye candy to you? What do you find physically attractive?â€
740
741“Fat females, the fatter the better,†he answered quickly. He also kind of looked away, feeling perhaps a little embarrassed by this.
742
743“Well, maybe we'll get something started if this advances beyond what we currently have as associates or acquaintances.â€
744
745Her words made sense. He saw no real fault in them as she motioned him to stand up so they could explore the fair some more, even if it was more than a little redundant. There was always options of things to do.
746
747Walking around, Affetto found himself questioning what he thought he knew. He had thought he'd had Aurora pegged some, but he had apparently been mostly wrong in his assumptions. As he was thinking and they were walking, Aurora interrupted his mental thoughts as she pointed and said, 'Hey, look over there.'
748
749A zebra with a unicorn horn was seen strumming a guitar as a batch of ponies were playing other instruments. As the music kicked up, the zebra approached a microphone and started singing. He had an amazing voice, something that Affetto enjoyed as he stood, watched, and listened.
750
751Aurora also found the little show to be quite impressive as well. And apparently, so did a bunch of other folks as a crowd began to gather to watch the spectacle.
752
753Affetto himself was quite skilled with a musical instrument, though not on the level that this zebra was with his guitar. Also, he lacked the vocal talents that the zebra clearly had. As the song came to an end a few moments later, the crowd roared with thunderous applause. Affetto and Aurora were among those that were clapping. That had been some great fun watching. But, apparently, he was not yet finished.
754
755As the next song started up, the zebra's fingers moved across the strings while some ponies began to walk around selling various snacks and drinks for those that wanted to watch the spectacle and not wander off to get food or beverages.
756
757“He's pretty good, isn't he?†Aurora asked as Affetto nodded, feeling a slight tinge of jealousy. But, apparently, that was all for naught as the zebra seemed interested in a hefty gryphoness, his drummer. Such was obvious by how he kept glancing back towards her.
758
759Turning back towards Aurora, Affetto wrapped an arm around her as he stood and watched. She didn't resist or say anything against him doing that. In fact, she reached an arm of her own around him. As they continued to watch the performance, Affetto couldn't help but wonder about a way to get the mare standing beside him to get fatter faster. She had kind of spoken out against it some because she felt he was pushing too hard, but that was just the current method of using lots of food. As useful and fun as that could be, it still had its limitations. Plus, one could only gain so quick just using food. Even eating every single day at fast food places and using the most caloric options, it would still be relatively slow going.
760
761Even as the zebra continued to play, Affetto and Aurora eventually walked away from the show. The music could still be heard, so it wasn't a complete loss. It was then that the gray unicorn noticed a flier for an eating competition. It wasn't one that was soon, since the fair ended tomorrow. Instead, this particular eating competition was actually several months away. It seemed that it was a holiday type of eating competition. As he looked it over, he thought about how much it would add to Aurora's figure when he noticed a few little details. There was a cash prize for the winner being one of the little details he noticed. The other was that there was another prize that would be given if the record was beaten. Winning the competition was one thing, beating the record was something else. Apparently, you didn't have to beat the record in order to win the competition.
762
763“Let me guess, you want me to enter this competition so that I'll overeat a bit and put on some excess weight for you to enjoy. Is that about right?†Aurora had kind of read it over his shoulder and decided to put her two cents in.
764
765Caught a little off guard, the gray unicorn blushed a bit and then just handed the piece of paper he'd pulled from a concession stand window to the white changeling mare. She looked it over and seemed to be contemplating the options.
766
767“I tell you what, I'll enter the contest and I'll even work to gain weight up until the contest. But, I expect you to also enter the contest and for you to do something else for me. And do not bother asking as I do not know what that is yet. I still need to think of it.â€
768
769Well, at least she didn't decline to do it. He'd still get to see her gain some weight and bear witness to quite a bit. Though, he had to wonder if she would allow him to see more than what he had seen so far. He hadn't yet seen her naked, though he had wanted to a few times at least.
770
771“I was wondering, I know you haven't really been willing to make it official as of yet, but maybe we could start classifying ourselves as an item. I'd really like to consider us to be boyfriend and girlfriend, but I know that you've been wanting to take it a bit slow.â€
772
773“It's been barely a week, how fast are you wanting to take this?†Aurora asked with a chuckle as she ran a hand through her lovely blonde hair. Her eyes widening some gave the point that perhaps he was attempting to rush things. “Look, I do kind of like you, but don't press your luck. Okay? I like fast cars, not relationships.â€
774
775Nodding, he realized that it was true. He had been trying to push things, and maybe he was making things go just a little too fast. But, there was something directly before him (more or less) that he steadfastly desired, and he was unwilling to give up on it. However, she had stated she was willing to date him and maybe go further, he probably just needed to take his time.
776
777“Well, are we going to go home now or stay for a bit longer?†Affetto was curious on what Aurora wanted to do. It was a fairly logical question, especially since there wasn't that much left to do at the fair. Having literally done about all there was to do over the course of the past week left little besides the few events that were leftover.
778
779“How about we catch the demolition derby and then head home. It starts in about an hour, and I've always had a particular fondness for that particular kind of destruction. It's the only time you can legally smash into someone that upset you and no one cares. In fact, it is kind of expected.â€
780
781Well, that was true. It was called a demolition derby for a reason. Folks would enter with their cars and then smash the ever living crap out of one another until there was only one car left. Affetto had to admit that he also had a fondness for the demolition derby. Having been to a few of them himself back east. He usually wouldn't go to such events because he was usually short on time, but not during his stay here. He was on vacation, so he really didn't have any set time for anything apart from what he set forth.
782
783And so, the pair stayed for the demolition derby. Later on, after some more time walking around and after watching the automotive massacre, the pair were heading back towards Aurora's home in Paleto Bay. Like every other day of the week, Aurora had eaten her fill and then some. The changeling mare looked a little stuffed and perhaps a little green around the gills.
784
785Having eaten far too much yet again, the white furred changeling mare just sat there in the passenger seat. Again, she had to ask herself just why she was doing all this. She had an answer, at least she thought she did. The answer involved the gray furred unicorn stallion currently seated in the driver's seat of the powerful sedan they were sitting in.
786
787Aurora liked Affetto, that much was certain. She was usually open about her feelings and desires, but not this time. This time she wanted to do things a little differently. The reason for doing things differently this time was she knew how much he desired her, and she really enjoyed playing hard to get. But that was only part of the reason. The other part involved the unicorn's desire to see her grow bigger and fatter. Of course, she wasn't exactly against that, but she had her reasons for just not going completely nuts to try and gain as much weight as fast as possible.
788
789Her reasoning was that if they started dating and she got bigger, he would be happy and she would be happy. Because, she wasn't against being big and actually kind of enjoyed it. But, she had to be honest that most males preferred thinner females with really big breasts. Now, her own breasts were fairly large and definitely got a lot of attention, but she was always looking to improve herself. But, the main reason why she worked so hard to stay thin, or at least a little curvy with a few extra pounds in the right places was because of what most males or companions preferred. Currently, she was working on a relationship with a male that preferred heavier females, but if it fell through for whatever reason and she wound up single again, she would rather not have a whole lot of weight to lose since it would be a pain to lose.
790
791Of course, there was always the option of simply keeping the weight regardless of how the relationship went. Despite the fact most males preferred thinner females, there were still quite a few out there that enjoyed the thicker and heavier ones. Ones that quite often referred to themselves as 'chubby chasers'. Plus, she herself had always enjoyed the softness and warmth that came from the extra weight. It was definitely some food for thought, that's for sure.
792
793When they finally arrived at her home, she slowly pulled herself out of the car as she was still feeling the effects from her fairly constant eating at the fair. She was certain to add a few pounds at least, just like every other day this week during their trips to the fair.
794
795“Make sure Affetto's car is parked in the garage and make sure that it is given a thorough cleansing and then waxed,†Aurora noted to some of the changelings she had working there.
796
797They nodded and took care of the car after Affetto had exited it. This had happened every evening this week, so he had kind of gotten used to it even if it felt a little awkward.
798
799“Affetto, could you please join me in the main kitchen. We are going to discuss the plans for the future.â€
800
801Aurora's voice had a tone that suggested the conversation to be had was of the utmost importance and that it was to be treated like he was speaking to one of the great princesses or some other highly important leader.
802
803“Immediately?â€
804
805“Preferably, though you may use the restroom if you have to. But, apart from a slight change of clothes or something like that, I expect you to be meeting me in the kitchen at the kitchen aisle counter I have near the center. I'll be waiting.â€
806
807He had no doubt that she wanted to talk about the flier and the conversation that had occurred in regards to that. She also probably wanted to discuss his coaxing and pushing for her to eat, eat a lot, and eat very fattening things at the fair. Had he not coaxed or pushed so hard, this inevitable conversation might have been avoided. Or, perhaps not given how he seemed to prefer heavier females and how she was fairly smart. So, she was bound to take notice of him trying to make attempts to fatten her up. And without being up front and reasonably forward about such wants and desires, there was bound to be some inevitable friction.
808
809So, with a sigh, he decided to go ahead and get it over with. After a quick stop to use the restroom and a quick change of clothes to shorts and a tee shirt since he felt constricted wearing those jeans, he headed towards the kitchen for the 'talk' that Aurora wanted to have.
810
811And there she was, sitting on a stool in.......a bathrobe? Clearly she was after comfort above all else at the moment. But, then again, a bathrobe wasn't exactly all that constricting in any way. So, since he recalled her seeming to be a little green, maybe this was to help her feel a little better by giving her probably fairly tight belly some breathing room.
812
813She motioned him to sit down before she began her little spiel that she apparently had planned. Though, after he sat down, she took a few moments to gather her thoughts before speaking.
814
815“Today, I said something to you in regards to you pushing for me to gain weight. Now, I know you prefer heavier females, and I have no problem with that or gaining some weight for you. I don't even mind the 'careful coaxing' you used to get me to eat more than what I would normally feel comfortable with eating. In other words, eating until I feel sick. I understand it is something that gets you off, and I put up with it since I haven't allowed anything sexual yet. We may never reach that point, but that doesn't matter in this conversation here.â€
816
817“I'm not sure where you are intending to go with this,†the gray unicorn indicated. Affetto was feeling more than a little nervous now, but her hand gestures seemed to indicate for him to just calm down.
818
819“I'm not ending the relationship just yet, and I may never, but that's in the future. What I want to discuss is the present. In other words, what is happening NOW! Now, in regards to the flier for the eating contest and in regards to me gaining weight, I will say this.....I am willing to partake, but I expect something in return. Love and affection is a given in a relationship. Sex is also kind of a given as well, so none of those things will work. Now, I am not uncomfortable or against getting big and fat. In fact, I find being big and fat to be warm and comfy. The problem with getting big and fat is that most males do not like or enjoy it. Most prefer a slim and trim or a reasonably slim and curvy female. Usually with a bit more up top around the breasts since males seem to love really big breasts. And, given the look on your face, you are no exception.â€
820
821Indeed, Affetto adored large breasts like most other males. He couldn't exactly hide or deny that. Well, he could, but Aurora wasn't going to buy it. She was way too smart for that.
822
823“So, I'm going to gain a bit of weight, and you are going to help me. I've decided that you won't have to enter the contest even if I do. But, I will expect you to add on a little bit of excess so that I can have something soft to play with aside from myself. Now, here's the catch. If the relationship ends, I may choose to lose whatever weight I gained. If I choose to drop the weight, you have to help me. Is that understood?â€
824
825He nodded. That seemed fair. Despite the fact that he really didn't want to see her get slimmer after getting so huge, he could understand the fairness there. Still, it seemed like she was at least willing to go with it for now.
826
827“How big are you going to get?â€
828
829“The proper question is, 'How big do you want me to get?' That's the question that really needs to be asked. Because the question you just asked could have an answer you don't like. Because, I could just select a number a few pounds above me or so and stick to that. I did get bigger by that specified amount, so I did reach the goal set. Not that I would do something like that, but it does demonstrate a keen point.â€
830
831That was certainly true, but now he was stuck with a dilemma. He wasn't sure how big he wanted her to get. He really didn't want to go too overboard yet lest something happen and she changed her mind about the relationship and then decided to lose whatever weight she had gained. On the other hand though, he really wanted to see just how big he could make her.
832
833So, as a new chapter began, things began to change. First and foremost was what was being made by the resident cooks. The cooks had always been fairly used to relatively big and extravagant meals, but now they were more so and much more calorie laden than they had previously been. The trips to Los Santos became less frequent as Aurora preferred to stay in the country as opposed to dealing with the pressures and hassles of the city life in Los Santos.
834
835The changes didn't effect Affetto too much as he was kept busy most of the time. Since he had desired her to grow big, she decided to play a little extra hard to get. Having him run errands and help out around the mansion to avoid being seen too much for the time being. It was really annoying, but she had promised that soon, she would request some time alone in a nice hotel in Los Santos. And, the date she was talking about was not the date for the eating contest. In fact, it was much earlier than that. Because of this, he had started to wonder about just what she may have had in mind.
836
837It was nearly two months before he saw her in person for anything longer than just a fleeting glimpse. On a Wednesday, he was out front working on his car. In truth, it needed little done, so he was just working on adding some things to the engine to make the car go faster.
838
839As he finished up and closed the hood to the car, he wiped his hands off with a nearby rag before tossing it into a nearby pile of dirty rags. As he headed inside to properly wash up and maybe take a shower, he was intercepted by one of the changelings that served as guards and/or servants.
840
841“Affetto, follow me if you will,†the changeling noted as he adjusted a uniform he was wearing.
842
843With a silent nod, the gray unicorn followed the changeling. He was currently wearing an old tee shirt and blue jeans. The reason for that was because he had done a little work on the car, which meant getting a little dirty.
844
845“So, what's needed?†Affetto asked, more than a little curious.
846
847“You. Mistress Aurora wished for your presence, so we are taking you to her bedroom. What you do in there is the business of you and her, no one else.â€
848
849He silently gulped. He'd been waiting for this moment ever since he had spotted her moments before his first kills ever. Also, what was his last kills, or so he hoped. With how things worked in Los Santos, one could never tell. This was something he was fast learning.
850
851As they reached the doors that led to her bedroom, the changeling guard quietly motioned for him to enter before walking away. Clearly, Aurora desired privacy and just Affetto himself. With a quick and quiet sigh, he shook his head and flexed his fingers before murmuring, “Show time,†and entering the bedroom.
852
853The bedroom was quite nice and very elegant. With nice oriental carpeting and even a matching oriental rug. Several chairs and other pieces of furniture dotted the room making it seem less gigantic as they filled it up while also giving it a nicer and more extravagant appearance. In the center was a bed with one of those canopies set up. Four poles, one on each corner, extended up to where the bed canopy was at. And laying directly across that bed was Aurora.
854
855She was completely nude and clearly interested in having some fun. Her large breasts were nice and appeared swollen with milk. Their size made him think of those globes that teachers would use in a classroom. Though, if he were honest, he was fairly certain her globes were much bigger. She had a lovely double chin that seemed to greatly accentuate the rest of her impressive figure. It also made her shorter and stockier muzzle and thicker face look cuter. Her belly was a much rounder and wider expanse, though hers looked a little more taut and less widened out and flabby. That's not to say hers didn't have those qualities. It simply had those while also having an appearance that seemed to suggest pregnant, though she clearly wasn't pregnant. Moving on down, he saw her impressive thighs and just enjoyed the expansiveness that she seemed to have. They were a good deal thicker and wider, like small tree trunks. They were not nearly as wide as her waist had been when he had first met her, but each one was fairly close to that width. All in all, she probably weighed around 350lbs or more.
856
857She motioned him to move closer with a thick and slightly meatier arm. “I take it you greatly enjoy what you are currently seeing. Well, now I am giving you the opportunity to touch, feel, grope, and even hit that grand slam for a home run. Tomorrow, you'll be taking me down to Los Santos. I'm going to be meeting with an old friend, and I'll be asking that old friend for a few favors. We're also going to partake in an event or two and I guarantee you'll get a kick out of the whole thing. But, as I said, you're going to have to start putting on some weight as well here pretty soon.â€
858
859He just nodded as she motioned him with the single movement of her finger to approach. Clearly, she had only one thing on her mind currently. And, if he was brutally honest, so did he. Removing and tossing the tee shirt aside, he next slipped out of his jeans.
860
861Aurora watched him undress before sliding onto her bed. “You've been a good boy for so long, so now it is time for your reward. This was a test of sorts to see what you would do. Most males that want me to drastically change my body expect to be around during the changes. But because of how fickle most males can be, I keep them out. Because, if I am going to change (say get huge for example), then I want to have some say on how I change. Most want to try and see if they can focus the gain or whatever around a specific region because of their own little fetishes. But, if I am going to alter my body, I should have the say in just how I gain and get fat.â€
862
863“So, since I wanted you to get obese, you wanted to do it your own way without any complaints from me. Is that about right?â€
864
865“It is,†she nodded. “But, I am not above cutting out others of having fun. Some really want to start from scratch. With me, it isn't going to happen. Because, if weight gaining is the game, I'd like to do some all myself and get fun from it. So, now that I've had my own personal fun, you can get involved.â€
866
867He nodded and leaned in to kiss her. Meeting no resistance, he pressed in as she wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him in tighter. Her soft and swollen form was so nice and juicy, it was like a very warm pillow. As he was pressed into her soft and pillowy embrace, he felt his member begin to stiffen even more as it was begging for something to help it achieve release.
868
869With a smile, Aurora pulled away from the kiss and rolled over with Affetto in her arms. Now he was on the bottom and she was on the top. Sliding over his rock hard member, she just closed her eyes and smiled wide. She wasn't about to tell him, but she'd had better. However, just because some others were a little better didn't mean he was terrible. In fact, they were only better in the bedroom, which didn't say a whole lot about their personalities.
870
871Unable to really move since she had managed to effectively pin him with how she was sitting/laying over the top of him, he found himself unable to adequately please himself for a potential release. It was then that he spotted her smirk. She was doing this deliberately to hold him at bay. It was a form of playful sexual teasing. Clearly, she had some serious practice in this area.
872
873Leaning down, she covered him to the best of her abilities and pressed into another kiss. As she guided his hands over her form, she found herself unable to stave off her moans as his hands caressed and playfully tickled her flabby furry sides. They circled her breasts before giving them a sensual squeezing. Oh, what wonderful sensations he was giving. At this point in time, he was effectively the best in the other parts of sexual activities. Whereas some of her previous suitors had been bigger and a bit playful of certain parts, Affetto seemed to enjoy her entire body. It was truly wonderful to have her entire form (or what he could reach) be fondled and toyed with. And for now, he could reach quite a bit. A thought struck her about getting bigger. Getting big enough that he would have trouble reaching much more than what was literally right in front of him. Yes, that would be rather nice. It would make him be choosy about where and how he would be pleasuring her. Might even make him change it up from time to time to explore a new area.
874
875As she was riding him, Affetto couldn't help but unleash pleasured moans of his own. He was in pure ecstasy and wouldn't have it any other way. Though, his options for words right now weren't really present since his mouth was otherwise occupied.
876
877As the tongues of the two intertwined, the gray unicorn felt even more aroused and sexually fulfilled as he had finally managed to hook a female he had developed an attraction for. Now, if he could just keep her. He'd had a few spotty relationships in the past where the females had literally left him while in the middle of something. Fortunately, none had left in the middle of sex. Though, rather unfortunately, he was because he'd never managed to get that far.
878
879As the scene continued to unfold, Affetto was feeling better and better just as Aurora was feeling more and more pleased. Making him wait had been a good idea as he was more than willing to go all the way after having been deprived for so long.
880
881However, despite all this, there was still an inkling of worry within the back of her mind. The old friend she was going to see was known for his.....questionable business plans. He was also quite deadly as well if pushed too far. But, that was all going to happen tomorrow, and this was happening now. In truth, part of the reason why what was happening now involved her date with destiny as it were tomorrow.
882
883As both Affetto and Aurora continued to go at it, both had silent worries in the back of their minds. And both of the worries were over completely different things. One of Affetto's worries was Aurora's comment about how she expected him to put on a little bit of weight because of his desire for her to get so huge. In all fairness, he had to admit that it was a fair trade. However, he was still mighty unsure about just gaining a whole bunch of weight to alter his own figure. He could always decline, but what would that say to her? I'm going to ask you to do something that may or may not be uncomfortable for you that I have no intention of doing myself. Yeah, not really a good message being sent there.
884
885Nearing the end, Affetto could feel the burning sensation, a need to release. Aurora had pulled out all the stops to keep him on edge to prevent it from happening too soon, but it wasn't something that could last forever. And right here and now, it was coming, and it would be coming soon.
886
887The hefty changeling mare could also sense it as she had also been working to try and hold herself at bay, but she could only do that for so long. Just like doing what she could to keep him from releasing, it wasn't something that would work forever.
888
889As he finally reached his climax, he had the sensation that she had reached hers as well. He was beat. Loving a large female was apparently quite the effort. Especially when you were effectively pinned and unable to really move. In this instance, it was careful positioning by Aurora. However, if she continued to grow heavier (and he greatly desired this), then positioning would soon fail to matter when she was on top. Because once a female is beyond a certain point and on top when having sex, the male just won't be able to move much because weight. That was something Affetto desperately wanted to experience, so he would have to make sure she got absolutely huge.
890
891But, that was for a time in the upcoming future. As he settled his thoughts once again in the present, he watched and felt her roll off to the side. She definitely looked like she had enjoyed herself. He knew that he himself had enjoyed the experience and he hoped to have many more just like it, except better.
892
893“You're not too bad,†Aurora noted as she caressed the side of his muzzle tenderly. “Maybe I should have let you in sooner and not played so hard to get. But, as the saying goes, 'Where's the fun in that'?â€
894
895Well, now he knew she had a sense of humor. Well, if one could actually call that a sense of humor. Still, she found it funny and he had to admit it was a little humorous as well. However, he wasn't about to do so openly for rather obvious reasons. But, he could still kind of laugh at it a bit on the inside.
896
897As he closed his eyes and allowed sleep to take him since he felt tired enough to actually sleep, he thought about the trip that they would be taking tomorrow. He knew very little and was largely unaware of any worries Aurora might have regarding it.
898
899After what seemed like only a few moments, he awoke. It was dark in the room and the changeling mare laying beside him was fast asleep. Sitting up, he slid out of bed and carefully made his way towards the kitchen.
900
901With a sigh, the gray unicorn opened the door to the fridge and took a gander inside. As his eyes scanned the shelves, he wondered about what to eat. Because of what had happened earlier and what time it was currently, he had missed both lunch and dinner. So, naturally, he was more than a little hungry. But, since it was really late at night, he didn't want anything that was too big and/or heavy. Something that could be utilized as a snack that could also hold him over till the following morning.
902
903“Trouble sleeping?â€
904
905Looking up, Affetto spotted a changeling that had entered. He was one of the guards and was usually outside. He just kind of nodded as he went back to looking.
906
907“To be honest, I really would have expected the mistress to be up instead of you.â€
908
909“Well, I missed lunch and.......wait, why?†Affetto had caught what had been said and also noticed a tone along with it. This to him was a red flag.
910
911“The friend she'll be meeting with is kind of like your friend, Snowbolt. The one you haven't really seen since opting to stay with us as opposed to her, something that would probably benefit you greatly. But, there is one key difference between this guy and Snowbolt. He's insane.â€
912
913“And Snowbolt isn't?â€
914
915“No, Snowbolt is perfectly sane. She simply chooses her career path because of the immense profits. Snowbolt is cold and calculating and usually doesn't kill without a reason. Though, those reasons usually are in regards to threats to her business which is illegal. So, the reasons usually develop into premeditated murder. Her friend......he could literally just snap.â€
916
917Watching the changeling snap his fingers for emphasis didn't inspire a whole lot of confidence. But, it did have him thinking as he posed a question. “Then why visit him?â€
918
919“Because of his brother. His brother is the exact opposite, and a closer friend than the guy I am referring, but the two are always together it seems. Oh, the brother can be just as dangerous and deadly, he just needs a damn good reason to be.â€
920
921“Well, how awesome,†Affetto noted with a definite touch of sarcasm. Just when he thought he had managed to slip out of the criminal mess that Los Santos was apparently well known for, he was about to be thrust back into it (sort of).
922
923“I just felt you should be aware of the situation. Mistress Aurora had wanted to keep it a secret so as not to worry you, but I felt you should be made aware of the potential danger you'll be walking into tomorrow. I could not in a clear conscience let you walk into that mess without proper warning.â€
924
925Well, that was good and it certainly showed a lot about his character. Still, Affetto was now very nervous about this whole situation. It had been perfectly fine for him up until this changeling had made the mention of it. The unicorn then realized he was unaware of the changeling's actual name.
926
927“I'm Champion, in case you were wondering my name. We were never formally introduced, but I guess this particular instance is about as formal as one can get. At least, in this situation.â€
928
929He was also a mind reader it seemed, but that mattered not. What mattered was what was about to take place the following day. There was a possibility he could talk Aurora out of going, but what if Champion was doing this in secret? Well, then his cover would be blown and they could both get into trouble. But, then again, maybe he had convinced her to let him say something. Who knows. All Affetto knew was that there was a problem and that he would once again be put into a rather tricky situation that seemed to only have bad endings. At least this time, he had quite a bit more forewarning.
930
931“So, what do you think I should do?†Affetto really wanted an honest answer about what to do here. In dealing with Aurora, he'd always had a rough idea, but this was something beyond what he could comprehend. Sure, he'd nearly wound up on a nasty path courtesy of his friend Snowbolt. But, thanks to Aurora, he had successfully dodged that bullet.
932
933“Just be there for her and be prepared for anything. Myself and a couple of the other guards will be there, but that's only because we are expected to be there to protect her. Despite not being within the underworld you can find in Los Santos doesn't mean folks from the underworld won't make attempts on her life.â€
934
935Great. That's just what he needed. Sighing, he then heard his stomach rumble as he realized that thanks to Champion, he had completely forgotten the primary reason he had come down here. He was interested in getting some food.
936
937“Hey, if you're interested in something to eat, I could suggest a Coltonese restaurant that is in the nearby town and still open. They serve really good food. Strangely though, despite getting huge boxes packed with food, you are always hungry afterwards. I never understood that.â€
938
939Smirking, Affetto released the door handle to the fridge and walked over towards the counter of the island in the kitchen and leaned against it as the changeling guard stood on the opposite side. “I think it has to do with what they put in the food. But, I'm game for that.â€
940
941“We'll take my pickup, follow me,†Champion indicated as he started to walk out of the kitchen.
942
943As Affetto followed, he began to mentally go over the changeling. He was a little taller than the rest and definitely a little more muscular too. He had a nice uniform on. Uniform......it looked more like a dress suit and tie. He also wore a hat, a flat cap. The hat was also black, so it matched his uniform.
944
945As they made their way through a few hallways and rooms towards the garage, Affetto wondered a bit himself about what was going on. Just mere moments ago, the changeling guard had seemed nervous and unsure. Now, he was happy it seemed.
946
947“What's the deal with your emotions? Are these 'friends' of hers really trouble?â€
948
949“They can be, but it is unlikely. She is afraid of the one brother because of past experiences, but they aren't too terribly bad. I just wanted you to be aware of a possible worst case scenario. But, the main reason she'll be meeting up is because of her friend's abilities with weight gain. He'll be using a few tricks to help her gain a bit extra that will be semi permanent. The reason I say 'semi permanent' is because the weight will never necessarily be permanent. Real weight is never truly permanent as it is always in a state of flux, or can be.â€
950
951“So, you mean she can lose it if she so chose by like......exercise or liposuction or something?â€
952
953“Precisely,†Champion replied. “Aurora is a queen of sorts, and as such, her emotions can spread and effect us. When she is nervous and uncertain, it is not uncommon for the rest of us to feel that way. Plus, on the previous topic, her friend will also be helping you to put on a bit of weight. After all, you did agree to it.â€
954
955The gray furred unicorn nodded as that was indeed true. But, there was still the unanswered question of how much he would be expected to gain. Aurora had mentioned previously that she expected him to gain a little bit since she would be gaining so much. She had said it was only fair he get in on it if he expected so much out of her. Kind of a quid pro quo sort of deal.
956
957As they entered the garage, Affetto spotted just one pickup. It was a brand new 2016 Ford F450 Platinum, a luxury dually pickup. “That's an 80 grand truck.â€
958
959“82.5 actually,†Champion corrected. “I previously worked for the changeling queen Chrysalis before serving here. I was very well paid there and my payment plan didn't change. In fact, this is just a favor for Chrysalis. She wanted me to come here and look after Aurora for a bit before returning to my original hive. Don't quite know why she wanted me to do this, but a favor is a favor.â€
960
961As they entered the truck, Affetto realized that Champion had a particular tone when he was speaking of this Chrysalis. He had a thing for the changeling queen. He kind of wondered if Chrysalis would allow such things to take place as he had heard quite a bit about her character before he'd even ventured out west to Los Santos. But, of course, there was a good likelihood that what he was told was nothing but lies.
962
963“Chrysalis is not quite the being everyone makes her out to be,†Champion noted as they exited the garage. The truck's powerful diesel engine making a rumbling noise as they moved down the driveway and headed for the nearby road.
964
965“Are you a mind reader or something? I swear that in the past half hour or so that we've been chatting and whatnot, you've answered questions or responded to statements I never vocally stated.â€
966
967“A little. Being a changeling, it comes with the territory. I try to avoid eavesdropping on most thoughts, but thoughts pertaining to the conversation at hand I tend to look over. It's a feeling I get that lets me know what is what in regards to the thoughts circling around inside your head.â€
968
969That didn't exactly help alleviate the feelings that had risen up within the gray unicorn. Still, at least Champion seemed to be honest about things. Maybe his ability of sorts to read thoughts was a sort of extrasensory perception courtesy of being a changeling that was a part of a hive and had naturally experienced that hive minded mentality.
970
971Champion didn't respond, so either he wasn't paying attention or didn't feel like responding. He'd mentioned that he tried not to view everything for privacy reasons, but he still picked up things here and there.
972
973The trip to the Coltonese restaurant took only a few minutes in total. The longest part it seemed was waiting at the stoplight which had just turned red when they reached it.
974
975“Aurora really does like you, which is strange since she is so hard to please and understand. She's the only changeling I was never able to figure out. Not sure whether that is a good or bad thing still. In regards to the kind of person she is, the answer is obviously good. But, in regards to not being able to read her and my own abilities, I am unsure. Whoop, green light.â€
976
977As they moved forwards and then turned left after another moment or two to pull into the parking lot outside the restaurant, Affetto had to wonder if Champion had some emotional issues. It wasn't obvious, but his actions and tone suggested he was a very complicated individual.
978
979More thoughts were being added to the conversation more or less, and he was not noting or responding in any way. Affetto had his doubts that Champion had simply backed out of the conversation completely. He was still fairly sure that the changeling could detect what was being thought but was choosing to remain silent. Well, maybe it was time the conversation ended.
980
981Exiting the pickup, both stallions entered the nearby door as they entered the restaurant. Once inside, both were greeted by a plethora of good smells. It was also kind of nice inside with that oriental appearance. As Affetto turned towards the changeling, he saw a look of surprise.
982
983Taking a moment to realize he was staring at something, Affetto turned to try and gather what he was staring at. But there was nothing apart from some dragon sitting over in the corner. He was reading a newspaper and sipping from a can of Coke.
984
985He had red scales and was minus any horns, but he did have long sandy brown hair tied in a ponytail. Looking up from his paper, he saw the two stallions and smirked. “Well, Champion. Tell Aurora not to worry, my brother was finally put where he belongs........a mental institution.â€
986
987“Affetto, meet Phoenix, Aurora's friend from a long time ago,†the changeling noted as he indicated with his hand.
988
989“I don't mean to be offensive, but given what I've been hearing and how I've heard Aurora is so nervous and unsure about this, I cannot say that the pleasure is mine or anything of that nature,†Affetto stated as Champion seemed to noticeably flinch.
990
991“Don't fret it. Aurora is worried because we had a fling and she fears I still have feelings and am overprotective of her. What she fails to realize is that I wasn't that overprotective and that it was me that left the relationship. She was venturing down a path I was unwilling to follow. She turned from it and is now legit, but about a decade ago that wasn't the case. Oh, by the way, changelings live longer than ponies.â€
992
993“And dragons live longer than changelings,†Champion added.
994
995“And alicorns live longer than dragons,†Phoenix topped. “I got married to an alicorn just in case you were wondering about that one. And she is actually part of the reason I need to be careful about this little meeting. Fortunately, Aurora seems interested in you, and she seems interested in you adding......I'd guess maybe about 200lbs or so given your approximate size in that outfit you are wearing currently.â€
996
997Affetto turned to Champion who just simply nodded. Apparently, Aurora had a set amount of weight she wanted him to gain. As to whether it was all at once or spread out, he hadn't known........at least until now.
998
999“Have a seat. And to answer the question, yes, I will be meeting her at the hotel in Los Santos. The reason I am up here currently is because I come from much further north and this seemed as good a place as any to stop for food since places like this are about the only places apart from fast food joints that are open past midnight. Plus, Coltonese ponies seem to love dragons.â€
1000
1001“So do Neighponese,†Champion added.
1002
1003“Yes, that's true,†Phoenix stated with a smirk as he polished off the can before crumpling it up and tossing it into a nearby trash can. “I'll cover whatever you guys want.â€
1004
1005“Think you can?†Champion asked.
1006
1007“Champ, did you forget that my wealth far exceeds what even Aurora has? My Lamborghini LM002 2 door pickup outside is proof of that. A 450,000 dollar truck with a 100,000 dollar conversion and priced at around 800,000 dollars right now. Mere pocket change.â€
1008
1009Affetto's jaw was now firmly planted on the ground. That was absolutely insane. So much money listed in such a short period of time and this dragon thought it was chump change.
1010
1011“I guess there is a fine line between dumb and rhetorical,†Champion noted as the dragon smirked before folding the paper and setting it on the table.
1012
1013“Perhaps, but you have to admit seeing his jaw drop like that was funny.â€
1014
1015The changeling made no comment, but his half hidden smirk showed he agreed with the dragon. As both males sat down, Phoenix turned around and spoke in Coltonese to one of the ponies in the back. As a young looking red furred unicorn mare came around the corner, he indicated the two new customers. He then spoke more in the language as she nodded and hurried back out of sight before returning with some paper menus that they could take home as well as glance over.
1016
1017“When did you learn Coltonese? I don't recall you speaking that language,†Champion noted as he looked over the menu.
1018
1019“It was next on the list. You forget, my kind are expected to understand every language.â€
1020
1021“Oh, that's right, your rules are very strict on the matter, aren't they?†Champion asked as Phoenix nodded with a sigh.
1022
1023“Why was Aurora nervous again?†Affetto asked.
1024
1025“Aurora and I dated a long time ago. She thought I was obsessive and overprotective because I worried a lot. She is primarily afraid of my brother, of which makes sense. She's also fearful I got into less than legitimate business ventures. Truth is, I never once did anything of that nature to break the law. In fact, that's part of the reason why I am here. I'm here to find out the truth about what happened to Princess Twilight and her friends. If they have gone south, I am to deal with them accordingly. If not, then I am supposed to deal with the copies accordingly and find the real ones. I was hired by Princess Celestia.â€
1026
1027“You're the Head Hunter. You go after criminal organizations and bring them down,†Affetto noted.
1028
1029“Yes, but only on the side. My main source of revenue is my chain of businesses and my work as a stock broker. I'm here to eliminate several key figures via arrest or by a bullet, their choice. Evidence against specific beings is high and I am to either arrest or kill them. Others, I am to gather more data on and then act accordingly. I record and take notes on everything to make sure everything is completely fine. It prevents problems later when I bring forth the bodies to the person that hired me. Because with those bodies is all the evidence showing why I was unable to bring them in alive. Though, recently, most of the folks I take on I am able to bring in alive, which I prefer. I hate killing as ending a life is never a good thing. Plus, the mountain of paperwork that follows always makes it worse.â€
1030
1031Affetto would have laughed at the dark humored joke if he actually found dark humor to be funny. In films, it could certainly be funny at times, but he generally had little taste for it. Both Champion and Phoenix took notice of his lack of laughter, but neither said anything.
1032
1033“So, how do you plan to fatten her up?†Affetto's question was one of a curious nature. Plus, there was little doubt what he might do depending on the answer.......even if the scene was a little public.
1034
1035“A very unique type of magic potion. It's something my wife brewed up. Initially, she made a bit for herself a few years back when she noticed our sex life was going south. She asked what the deal was and I told her I wished she was heavier. I still loved her, that would never change regardless of what she looked like, but I just had that desire that just had to be quenched. So, she quenched it. That being said, the ingredients are tricky to come by and as such, it is a bit expensive.â€
1036
1037“I doubt you paid anything,†Champ indicated as he looked over a menu.
1038
1039“Of course not, the situation at hand would have made cash payment redundant. I already give her about half of what I make anyways. But, of course, that's what you do when you are married,†Phoenix indicated.
1040
1041“Did/is Aurora paying?†Affetto asked.
1042
1043“Already paid. Quite a bundle too. Seems she was kind of looking to go for broke,†the dragon noted as he rubbed his chin. “Plus, there's your little gain to be considered. That in itself was a completely different price. Not nearly as much as the price for the stuff for her, but....maybe I was not exactly being truthful earlier when I mentioned how much you might be gaining. But, of course.....she might only expect a certain amount and leave the rest up to you. In which case.......it'd be the chivalrous thing to do to take it all.â€
1044
1045“What about you?†The gray furred unicorn questioned.
1046
1047“My wife prefers her males to be a little built with some additional muscle, so I've been working out a bit more. I'm still not at quite the level she wants yet, but I am not too far off,†he noted as he flexed an arm for emphasis.
1048
1049Champion was still looking over the menu when he finally figured out what he wanted. As he looked up, he just popped a smirk of sorts before going over to place an order. He was soon joined by Affetto as the unicorn had decided on what he had wanted as well.
1050
1051Once back at the table, the two equine figures sat back down to await their meals. Affetto still seemed intrigued to some degree by everything that was going on. Phoenix wasn't nearly as bad as he figured not to mention the little bit about the weight gain potion that the dragon had just mentioned.
1052
1053“I am assuming that Aurora is aware of your marriage?†Champion questioned.
1054
1055“She's aware I have some contacts for such things, but we haven't really spoken for a few years at the very least. So, no.....she is not aware of my marriage. And, I never got the chance to tell her. All she did was call me up, leave me a message about what she wanted, and that was it. I never got to speak to her in person.â€
1056
1057“So, she just left you a message with an order for a weight gain potion?†Affetto asked.
1058
1059“Precisely,†Phoenix replied.
1060
1061“Maybe it was because of the past and her nervousness over it?†Champion questioned, trying to add a bit of logic to why she might have done things that way.
1062
1063“Maybe, but I get the distinct impression that she was perhaps in a hurry for one reason or another. Not quite sure why she would be in a hurry, but.....then again, she always had her own schedules that she fussed over excessively. You guys probably won't see it much, but she is a bit obsessive compulsive.â€
1064
1065“I've noticed that,†Champion noted as he leaned back in his chair and cracked open the can of soda he had. “She tends to hyper-focus on quite a few things, usually in regards to whatever she happens to be working on.â€
1066
1067“I don't think I've noticed that......yet,†Affetto noted. Though he had to admit he could be a bit obsessive compulsive himself. That was part of the reason why he was so successful with his career choice. He tended to put a lot of focus and effort into his work (and his violin playing during his free time) that he had to definitely call himself the obsessive compulsive type.
1068
1069“Though, if people are honest, most would admit that they can be obsessive compulsive on certain things as well. Just working to bust your ass beyond measure to get something done a particular way or to beat some deadline that has been set forth. Sometimes, it's reasonable. Other times, not so much. But, regardless, when it comes to deadlines, I kind of dislike it. I mean, I can fully understand that you want something done within a certain time frame and you can bet I'll work hard to achieve that, but setting a deadline means that you are greatly limiting what folks can do. I say that because almost every single time I am given a deadline, I have almost zero time that I need to properly make what they desire. In this particular case, she was lucky my wife had most of the ingredients on hand. But still, obtaining the last few ingredients was a bit of a pain.â€
1070
1071“This a job as well?†Champion asked.
1072
1073“It's my wife's job. She makes potions and spells for a living. Her teacher was none other than Twilight Sparkle. Kind of a shame what happened to her........in any regard. Because either she was captured by somebody and copied/cloned and this is what we are seeing or she has gone south for one reason or another to become the monster I was sent here to dealt with.â€
1074
1075Affetto cracked open his own can of soda, a can of Mountain Dew to be precise. Taking a drink, he glanced over to where Phoenix sat. The dragon had gone back to reading his paper. “How long will the potion be in effect?â€
1076
1077“One night. About 25 percent of all that is gained will be lost towards the end of the process. So, you won't be keeping all the weight you'll gain, just most of it. Also, the weight can be lost. And to answer the question, it can be lost in all the ways people lose weight these days. Diet, exercise, spells, liposuction.....all that stuff still works. Though, to be fair, spells and lipo are just 'easy button' options as far as I am concerned. Same with gaining weight, the potion I have is an 'easy button,' but it works really fast. Hours as opposed to weeks or months usually.â€
1078
1079Affetto could see why she would have gone for that sort of thing. After kind of doing what she did over a fairly extended period of time to see if he would stick around just for him to do exactly that, he could see her be willing to go for broke. Besides, she did kind of have to get prepared for that little contest of sorts that they'd seen back at the fair. Well, that is providing that she was still interested in participating in that.
1080
1081After a few minutes of silence that followed, some food was brought out to Phoenix. Apparently, he'd placed an order not long before they had arrived. The dragon proceeded to fold up the newspaper and set it down before pulling out a pair of chopsticks to begin eating.
1082
1083Champion didn't seem surprised by that as he had gotten his own pair. Affetto hadn't bothered requesting chopsticks since it wasn't something he saw a reason to use. Why use a pair of sticks to try to pick up the food you could just as easily skewer with a fork? In fact, it was much easier to simply skewer the food with the fork and put it into your mouth.
1084
1085“I prefer eating with chopsticks. This particular pair is made from dragon scales. Seems kind of ironic doesn't it? Dragons shed their scales from time to time. Because of their strength and flexibility, they are then crafted into items such as these chopsticks. And, unlike the wooden ones you currently have, these are washable and actually worth washing.â€
1086
1087“Aren't they really expensive?†Champion asked as he took another drink from his soda before examining the can. It was a Coke can, and some of them usually had something clever or interesting written on the side instead of the typical 'Coca Cola' logo. In this particular instance, it was just the typical logo.
1088
1089“What time are we meeting tomorrow?†Affetto asked.
1090
1091“Around 3 to 4 in the afternoon. You'll be staying in the hotel I'll be at so I can keep tabs on the progress of the formula to make sure the proper dosages are given to prevent extreme size issues. That's happened a few times in the past, and it never ends well. Sure, the people are fine, but it's not them being hurt (by the formula I should say) that's usually the problem. The problem comes from their growth damaging things like the building or furniture or anything else for that matter. People can get kind of upset when their stuff gets crushed beyond all recognition.â€
1092
1093Affetto could understand that. But, the knowledge of just what that potion could do now had him feeling a little nervous. Granted, the fact it could make Aurora big and fat was beyond delightful for him just as it would be for any male that had an affinity for really huge females. However, there was the little detail that had just come up about it potentially going a bit wrong and then Aurora (and to a degree, him as well) would get more than bargained for. Maybe that was part of the reason why she had been so nervous as Champion had indicated.
1094
1095“That might actually explain a few things,†the changeling stallion noted as the food he and Affetto had ordered was brought out a few moments later.
1096
1097“It's not as strong in males for the most part because testosterone has a resistance to it. However, estrogen (which is usually high in females) seems to really work well with it. Now, that being said, the potions created will work well regardless. But, because of a deadline, Azure may have used ingredients in the one for Aurora that really work with the estrogen, which means I'll have to keep a watch and monitor the dosages. So, if everything works, I can just administer the rest and call it a night.â€
1098
1099Somehow, Affetto didn't think it would be quite so simple, but he wasn't about to argue or complain. There just wasn't a reason to. So, he just sat there and ate. The conversation had finally teetered off as the three males sat in silence and ate. When Phoenix left, he did cover the bills for both Champion and Affetto.
1100
1101Not long after, both Champion and Affetto made their exit as well. Once back at the large mansion, Affetto headed back to bed as Champion stayed up another few hours to take care of a few additional errands to be done around the house.
1102
1103The following day around noon, the trip to Los Santos began. Using Affetto's Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat, Affetto and Aurora made their way south towards the city. The hefty changeling mare still seemed nervous as she fiddled with her dress and some white tufts of fur in a few areas that had refused to be brushed down. Running a hand through her long blonde hair, she then looked at her pudgy fingers and sighed before turning to where Affetto sat in the driver's seat.
1104
1105The gray furred unicorn was a little nervous himself, though he was fairly certain his nervousness stemmed from a few different reasons plus some of the ones that were likely making her nervous. Biting his tongue, he tried to think of something to say to get their minds off of what was about to happen. He was still fairly uncertain about gaining any sort of real weight himself, but he was game for it since she wanted it and it seemed fair.
1106
1107“Affetto, there is a chance that whatever Phoenix gives me might go a bit overboard. I know his brother is/was a problem, but his brother is in prison, so he's not so much a problem anymore. I'm just worried that this may go beyond what I anticipated. That's what is making me so nervous. I admit I was originally nervous about Phoenix, but then I discovered his primary potion making contact was his own wife.â€
1108
1109The gray unicorn nodded, not completely sure what to really say to that. So, he remained silent and simply drove. He was also thinking about Aurora and what she would look like with a few hundred additional pounds at the very least. As he thought about that, he was also starting to think about how much weight he would have to put on.
1110
1111As they drove, he heard a cell phone ringing and then heard Aurora answering it. Based on the half of the conversation he could hear, he guessed she was speaking to Phoenix. Talking about the potion, where and when to meet, that sort of thing.
1112
1113As he kind of half listened and focused on the road, he couldn't help but notice some of the things that were being said. Idly, he began to wonder if there was going to be an actual potion involved or not. The reason for this was the words being said and her apparent reactions, though he noticed nothing new. Maybe his mind was wandering too much.
1114
1115Moments later, she ended the call and breathed a sigh of relief. Apparently, everything was now perfectly fine. “I guess I needn't worry too much now. Azure will be there to insure the gains go as planned. Never understood what got Azure and Phoenix together, but whatever works.â€
1116
1117“Is Azure skilled with magic?â€
1118
1119“She's one of the more powerful unicorns. She was taught personally by Twilight Sparkle. Kind of a shame really. Oh, Champion told me about last night, said you and him bumped into Phoenix.â€
1120
1121“Seems like an okay guy, it's just how the potions might work that has me worried,†he noted.
1122
1123“Had me worried too, as you've no doubt heard and guessed. Anyways, Azure has a spell she will be using.....first on me, and then on you. Phoenix will monitor us both to make sure we reach the agreed upon weights. No, there are not any specifics yet, but we'll have to elaborate on some when we meet up here in a few hours or so.â€
1124
1125Nodding, the gray unicorn returned his full focus to the road ahead. He wasn't driving as quick as he normally would be (about 5 to 10 above the actual limit), so he was getting overtaken by quite a few cars driving down the freeway.
1126
1127As he drove, he did cast an occasional sideways glance towards Aurora and where she sat. He'd discovered just how much she had actually weighed earlier that morning. Her total weight was 378lbs. Not bad, but definitely a little bit heavier than what he had expected. And it was just the start. Sure, he could take weeks or months (not that he'd mind that, though he did kind of prefer it), but this would insure that she'd gain it all quickly. He had definitely wanted to see a gain and a bit of an expansion, and now he was certain to get it.
1128
1129Her double chin was still there as was that round and taut looking belly. Though, the belly was nicely concealed underneath that rather large button up blouse. But, although it seemed to cover up her belly fairly well, it didn't do as good of a job covering up her rather large and round breasts. Those same milk filled mammaries he had witnessed the night before with nothing blocking his view were now cozily placed in the top of that button up blouse. In fact, he was idly wondering if he wanted them to be a little overexaggerated in size like in some adult cartoons. Too big to really be confined all that well within the top of a shirt and instead seeming to take up entire said shirt almost. Actually, come to think of it, there were some females that had already done that more or less. Though, only about half were actually real.
1130
1131Returning his full focus to the road once again for a couple of moments for a brief respite, he next cast a slight glance towards her lovely thick thighs. Her choice of pants was sweat pants. He'd half expected her to wear jeans, but then realized that blue jeans (or jeans of any color for that matter) would have been a little uncomfortable. But, there would no doubt be button popping involved if she wore jeans. Well, actually, more button popping as her blouse had a nice row of buttons from top to bottom to pop off. Though, there is actually no guarantee that that will be the order in which they fly off from that piece of clothing.
1132
1133“Those are some naughty thoughts that you are having,†Aurora noted.
1134
1135Affetto had forgotten that changelings had a small degree of telepathy. Well, they could kind of read minds and pick up on thoughts, usually of the stray variety. “Well, when in the presence of a beautiful female, naughty thoughts are bound to pop up here and there.†After saying that, he instantly had a thought that perhaps he shouldn't have said that, but she simply smiled.
1136
1137“Well, I guess I cannot fault you for that. At least you were honest about it. Most males wouldn't be, or they'd just do the quiet treatment. That's our job. Us females are supposed to give you guys the quiet treatment whenever you fuck up.â€
1138
1139She certainly knew how to be blunt about things, that's for sure. And that was about as blunt as you could get without being too insulting, though that was actually kind of insulting. Fortunately, Affetto didn't feel insulted by it.
1140
1141Hearing a loud noise, he turned to the left as an older 1967 Chevrolet Camaro blew past at a fairly impressive rate of speed. “Well, someone is about to get a speeding ticket. And it's not me.â€
1142
1143Around 3:30 in the afternoon, the Charger Hellcat that Affetto was driving pulled into the outskirts of Los Santos. As he headed for downtown, he glanced over at Aurora. He needed some directions so that he knew where to go.
1144
1145It was about then that her cell phone rang and she answered it. As she spoke, it became apparent that it was once again Phoenix on the other side. A moment later, a winged figure came into view ahead and turned it's head. It was Phoenix on his own cell phone. He motioned towards the nearest exit and Affetto followed the impromptu directions of sorts until he pulled over alongside one of the streets with parallel parking.
1146
1147“Is this it? This looks like....†he began when the red dragon halted him.
1148
1149Phoenix was dressed in a red tank top and blue jeans with no shoes or socks. “I'll take over as driver. We'll be going to a particular restaurant that is best for this sort of thing. Plus, I have some errands to run in that part of town anyways. So, while Azure helps you two out, I'll be dealing with something else. As to what, well.....I'd best not say at the moment.â€
1150
1151“You're going to go after Twilight and the others, aren't you?†Aurora asked.
1152
1153“I've arranged a meeting of sorts. My contact has told me all of their vehicles were in the area. As of 6 minutes ago, he confirmed all 6 mares are also there, so I need to get there and take care of things. Plus, they won't be recognizing this car as mine. And if it gets wrecked, I'll buy you a new one plus the Challenger as a replacement.â€
1154
1155Affetto just nodded and moved to the back seat. It seemed fair, but he still didn't exactly like it. Aurora seemed to be on the rails herself, so to speak. But both knew that there were just some things that absolutely had to be done.
1156
1157The trip from their current location to the restaurant took a little bit of time because of traffic lights mostly. The traffic itself wasn't actually terrible, but the lights were a bit annoying. As the powerful sedan pulled up to the restaurant, Phoenix motioned for the two equines to get out.
1158
1159“I'll meet you guys and Azure at the hotel this evening. You guys may stay here for what she has planned or you may go somewhere else. Depends on what suits her best and what you guys want.†With that, he drove off as the two headed inside.
1160
1161Seated at a booth near one of the windows was a very elegant albeit heavy looking unicorn. She had radiant white fur and long flowing red hair. She appeared to be very large, easily 700lbs. He could see her large belly as it strained against the tee shirt she was wearing. Her enormous breasts were also straining from the top while her thighs seemed to be dangerously confined within a pair of blue jeans. Though, when he got closer, he realized they looked a little looser than he had previously thought. Overall, she looked to be very nice. She also had a cute triple chin on her short and stocky muzzle.
1162
1163“My name is Azure, and you must be Affetto. I've met Aurora before, though it was years ago. Back when we were both at the academy. I took the advanced training course whereas she opted to go into business. She intended to follow the family business, which is fine. Magic is my business. In regards to what my husband is about to do, I sincerely doubt those beings are really Twilight and her friends. They might get a little corrupted and have issues, but not on the level that has happened.â€
1164
1165“One must not assume,†Affetto indicated.
1166
1167“Well, I guess you are right. Anyways, enough of this sordid and solemn talk. You two are here to get fat and I am to make you fat. The first thing I need is a starting weight. So, the question is.......how much do you weigh?â€
1168
1169Affetto cleared his throat, “198lbs.â€
1170
1171“378lbs. I've been a bit sinful these past few months,†Aurora noted.
1172
1173The white unicorn was seen jotting the information down as she motioned the pair to have a seat. “The next step will involve sustenance. I can use the potion, but there is no guarantee it'll do precisely what is desired. Will it cause weight gain? Yes. But, of course, that isn't the problem. The problem is getting it to stop within the range you desire. More often than not, unless you have the exact and precise ingredients, you'll get the equivalent of a massive overdose and get rather huge. The insult towards fat beings of a 'whale' would become a very accurate description in regards to the size. So, because of that, and to be a bit more.....private, I have a different solution.â€
1174
1175“And that is?†Aurora asked.
1176
1177“An enchantment. It will wear off, but in order to have any sort of permanent effect, it must be done on a full stomach and a specific equivalent of food must be consumed. Now, to be safe, we're going to do it in layers or waves. I need exact information on how much you two intend to weigh by tomorrow. About 45 to 50lbs of all the weight gained will be lost over the course of your sleep schedule. That bit is unavoidable. So, try to pick a weight about 45 to 50lbs higher than what you desire. Or, you could just pick a high enough number that those 45 to 50lbs won't matter too much. I will say though, for weights about 800lbs, it could be a little more. But, I have a quick and easy solution for that as well. In the off chance you lose too much and want to regain a little more to get back at a weight that will occur sometime tonight, I can give you a semi permanent potion. Good for a max gain of 150lbs if the entire thing is drank. It's potions for larger numbers that make things tricky. Oh, and the thought about taking one potion after another of the lower numbers.......not good to overdose, otherwise it will be more than just doubling up by taking two instead of just one. You have to be careful with such things.â€
1178
1179“So,†Affetto began, “You are going to enchant us after we have a meal?â€
1180
1181“Yep,†she replied.
1182
1183“It will then work for a bit till a specific amount is consumed, is that correct?â€
1184
1185She again nodded towards Affetto. “Now, clearly, the next question would be to simply postpone eating said amount till the gain covers the amount desired. It doesn't work that way. It'll work off the fuel in your stomach and add a little bit of weight based on how much was consumed. For a single meal, which may be a couple of pounds at max, you'd gain about 20 pounds. Basically, each pound of food consumed equates into about 10 pounds. So, if you consume nothing else, it will end once what was in your stomach is dealt with. Also, while it turns the food items consumed into fat, it also increases your stomach size so you get hungrier. Now, usually when I mention this, folks get nervous. They feel that if they ever decide to get thin again, they'll need magic. Truth is, they are not wrong in that magic will be needed. But, they are wrong in assuming it is the only way. All the other methods will work perfectly fine. Dieting, exercise, liposuction, and just about anything else used for weight loss. They all work. Most folks that come to me or others like me to get fat usually do not drop it later on, but they do like to know that the avenue is actually open and not limited to a single lane. Oh sweet Celestia, I spend too much time around my husband. Now I am using car metaphors and similes in conversation like he does........DAMMIT!!â€
1186
1187Both Aurora and Affetto shared a chuckle at that since it was kind of funny. She even joined them for a moment, but stopped a few moments later as the serious look returned to her face.
1188
1189“So, like I was saying.....you both are going to have full meals here and then I will work in the enchantment. It works till it runs out of fuel or the specified amount has been reached. Now, the enchantments take more energy, and the fuel sources can be tricky as lots of food is required, but proper reservations at proper places can solve the problem. So, we'll do it by waves. I already know that the female of you two will be gaining a lot more. But, the male will also be gaining. I need the weights you want to have tomorrow so I know how I'll be working out the enchantments and how many I'll be casting. If I were to cast an enchantment to insure 500lbs of gain, it would occur providing there was easy access to 50lbs of food and a full stomach. But, with most restaurants, that's not really an option, which is number one. Number two has to do with how much energy it takes out of me. An enchantment of about 50lbs takes much less energy and requires much less food. Now, over the course of the day, the energy will be a drain, but not all at once. Plus, it isn't that difficult to get about 10 to 15 pounds of food at most restaurants. So, basically, I am asking for information so I know just how many restaurants we'll be visiting.â€
1190
1191“I expect for Affetto here to weigh 350lbs by the time we're all done,†Aurora noted. “Big enough to have some fairly obvious and substantial girth, but not too big that he would be mostly useless. As for how much he wants me to gain, well.....I'll leave that up to him.â€
1192
1193Azure stroked her chin and nodded before turning towards Affetto. The proverbial spotlight was now shining down on him and he was feeling a little nervous. He didn't quite know what to say, but knew he had to think of a nice round number that would fit perfectly.
1194
1195“Well, she weighs 378 now, so....†he began as he thought. Azure gave Aurora a look that seemed to suggest this was nothing new. Apparently, she had encountered such things before. “1,000lbs.....total. I'd like to see her reach a full ton, but I'd like to do at least half that myself.â€
1196
1197Azure nodded and made jotted the information down. “Okay. Now, the easiest way is simply to do the both of you at the same time until I reach the weight limit of one, but I could do one and then the other.â€
1198
1199“One other thing.....any chance of maybe making her breasts a bit....â€
1200
1201Azure smiled and nodded, “Sure. That's the one thing that is always asked. All males want me to make the boobs bigger.â€
1202
1203“Even oversized?†Affetto asked.
1204
1205“You'd be surprised,†the white unicorn mare noted. “But, the question still hasn't been answered. Oh, and to answer your question, I have a quick method for that that is best reserved for later on. Best not to use it prior to the enchantment and to wait about half an hour after said enchantment has worn off. But, we'll see how big they get, and if you want them bigger and she is willing......we'll go for it.â€
1206
1207“Whatever he wants. As long as he reaches the 350lb mark, I'll consider his half paid for,†Aurora stated. She had been half thinking about upping his weight because he wanted her breasts bigger, but decided not to as she couldn't fault him for that. Besides, she had been planning on getting them enlarged naturally anyways, so this was as good of a time as any. “In regards to how the gaining is going to be......I was expecting to gain a bit first and then watch him, but I'll do whatever is easier for you. Besides, watching him gain some as I do might give me a little more motivation to work harder at it.â€
1208
1209Azure laughed a bit, “Working harder won't make any difference really. As long as the enchantment is in place, you'll be hungry till you reach the amount necessary to fuel the gain desired. After that, you'll become full and then it will teeter down till your stomach is empty. You will more than likely feel hungry again, but I will insist on waiting until we are in a spot to cover for the next boost. Most restaurants are not too willing to help folks like myself out in doing gains this way, but some may for a little extra. Sure, you could pay for the food ahead of time and reserve some spots, but you get mixed feelings from both the owners, the workers, and the patrons. Most of the time, buffets will just simply deal with it because regular folks do that there anyways. Fast food places will often deal with it as well simply because most of their customers are fat or soon will be. But, the nicer places, bakeries, and even ice cream shops usually won't. That being said, I do have a bakery and a nice ice cream parlor lined up. They know what to expect and approximately when to expect it, but they are willing. I've also called ahead to a number of other places for the same thing. So, we're mostly set up. The final gains will be done at the hotel and it will be delivery and takeout. This is the instance where no one cares. They don't have to watch it, they usually don't bother thinking about it, they're just happy so long as they get tipped and the food is paid for.â€
1210
1211“So, when are we going to get started?†Affetto asked rather curiously.
1212
1213“Immediately,†Azure replied as she snapped her fingers for some nearby waiters. “These two need to see some menus so we can work out what they will be eating.†With silent nods, the two ponies headed off. “This Coltrean restaurant is actually pretty good. It is kind of hard to find a good Coltrean place outside of Coltrea. Anyways, 198lbs to 350lbs. I'll set you up with a slightly stronger enchantment of 102lbs to cover that first step and get you to 300. After that, I'll just do a 50 pounder to finish you off. Aurora, 378 to 1000. That'll be tricky. I'll start her off with a simple 22 pound starter before I do her 100 pounds at a time 6 times. Fortunately, this place can provide that much since I have them reserved for the next few hours, so the first gains will be here. The next gains will be at five different restaurants and fast food joints with the final gains being at the hotel via takeout.â€
1214
1215As she finished her explanation, one of the waiters had returned with a couple of menus as the two equines opened them up and began to look over the options. Affetto couldn't believe that he was actually doing this, but he had promised and his 'gain' had more or less already been ordered and potentially paid for, so he felt obligated at this point.
1216
1217“How much food we make?†The waiter asked.
1218
1219“Apart from the first meals, about 15 pounds worth. Give them a variety. Oh, Affetto, Aurora, excuse me a moment. I have a few calls to make to set up the other restaurants. The end at the hotel may be just an end or maybe I can get another six places to help out, we shall see.â€
1220
1221The waiter simply nodded. He had the typical slanted eyes of a Coltrean stallion while also sporting a kind of beige white fur while wearing a uniform that more or less signified the restaurant that he worked at.
1222
1223Affetto barely gave him much of a glance apart from requesting a Mountain Dew to drink while Aurora requested a Cherry Coke. As he looked over the menu, he recognized some of the options from some local restaurants he had visited previously in Liberty City. He hadn't visited them that often if he was honest since they did serve a lot of meat based dishes. Some of the ponies from other regions were known for eating meat a bit more than those in Equestria. He had no problems with eating meat or those that ate meat, he just preferred not to as it felt kind of weird. Still, he loved Neighponese and Coltonese foods, both of which were also meat heavy.
1224
1225With a sigh, he looked over the menu once again and mentally made a choice for a vegetarian dish as well as a spicy soup that was not completely vegetarian. In the case of the latter, it was chosen more because of taste rather than the ingredients.
1226
1227Aurora was probably more likely to select some meat based dishes, and select she did. When the waiter returned with the drinks, he asked the obvious question, “Are you ready to order?â€
1228
1229The answer to that was an affirmative as Aurora quickly made her order, which was actually a fairly large order. He actually had to look down at the menu to try and decipher and find what she was ordering. He found some of the items, but not all. When she had finished, he made his own order of only three dishes compared to what was probably closer to a dozen for her.
1230
1231With the orders taken, the waiter took back the menus and then explained that the rest of the food served would consist of what had just been ordered as well as a sample of everything else on the menu given how much was supposed to be made. As he left, Azure returned. The large and heavy unicorn smiled as she sat down.
1232
1233“I have some good news. One of the buffet places in town is willing to host us, and has put forward quite a bit of food to help......or will be. So, that covers three of the restaurants in one. The others include a McDonald's willing to put forth the necessary amount, a local Coltalian place, and a Marexican place as well. So, I think we are covered.â€
1234
1235Both Affetto and Aurora nodded since neither really had anything to say or add to that. And so, the waiting for the first dishes began. After about 20 minutes or so, a couple of waiters started to bring the food out. As the dishes were laid out on the table, Affetto silently said a quick prayer before he began to eat.
1236
1237Aurora showed her own sense of the culture of the restaurant by using a pair of chopsticks. Azure seemed impressed by this as she leaned back in her chair. She was looking a little hungry too, but it was clear she was likely holding back for a reason.
1238
1239Slurping up his soup, Affetto took a bite off his fork of the stir fried vegetables. It was very good, having been expertly cooked. With a smile, he scooped up some rice and ate it. He'd always kind of loved rice, yet he never knew why. Rice had no real flavor and it's texture was definitely not something for most people, but it worked for him.
1240
1241Turning towards Aurora, he saw that a few of her dishes were already empty as she was working to quickly empty the remaining dishes. His own were about half empty in total, so he was about halfway done with his meal completely.
1242
1243Azure seemed to be weaving her fingers in the air as if bored, but Affetto noticed her horn was alight. She was currently working on a spell, or more likely, the enchantments. As Affetto finished his own meal, he rubbed his stomach as he felt pleasantly full. And then, just a few seconds later, he didn't. There was also a tingling sensation that was spreading throughout his body from his stomach.
1244
1245Looking up, he saw that the waiters had returned and were setting down dishes on the table. It seemed that some of this first round was to be for him since he had finished his meal first and had gotten full first. But, before he could take another bite to enjoy the rest of the food he would likely be eating in this sitting, he noticed that his clothes felt a little tighter than they had before. It wasn't much, but it was certainly noticeable. He had recalled that there was the enchantment made more out of less, so not nearly as much had to be consumed. But still, 15 to 20 pounds was still quite a bit to be served by a restaurant since most served only 1 to 2 at most per customer with buffets maybe serving a little more because they were buffets and very rarely did most customers stick with one plateful/serving.
1246
1247Taking a piece of grilled meat (beef he assumed) with his fork, he took a bite and started to eat. Azure was sitting nearby and smiled as she began to wave and weave her fingers again, casting a slightly different version of the enchantment on Aurora.
1248
1249“So glad this spell works as such. Usually, it would take hundreds of pounds of food, but now the gains can be done with a mere fraction of the food necessary. It will stretch and enlarge everything that is necessary. I will also be using the breast enlargement spell later if it is still desired.....once we've finished with all these good times,†Azure explained.
1250
1251As the gray furred unicorn stallion nodded, he continued to eat. Everything tasted so good, much better than he had originally anticipated. And, just like the waiter had said, there was a sample of most everything on the menu. Affetto highly doubted that it was everything as one might need a couple dozen to a couple hundred pounds of food to cover that, but he wasn't complaining. He especially wasn't about to complain when he discovered that he wasn't paying for the food. No, the bill was going to be covered by Azure and would be part of the cost for the entire gain plan which was covered by Aurora. So, technically, Aurora was paying for it.
1252
1253As he ate, he began to realize that the enchantment was really kicking in. As his weight began to climb, the muscle and form he had kind of built up in the past few weeks was starting to disappear. As he stopped for a moment and looked down, he found his stomach starting to sag out as it became a gut. His pecs were starting to sag out into male breasts as he felt his pants starting to tighten around his legs and rear.
1254
1255The sensations of his growing form were rather interesting, especially since he was getting turned on by his own weight gain. Looking to his right where Azure sat, he saw her smile as if she knew exactly what he was thinking.
1256
1257“I've seen that look a hundred times in my career. You are about half finished with the food needed to completely fuel your gain to get you to 300lbs. Once you reach that point, you will feel full and just simply stop eating. She'll be stopping a little sooner since she has less to gain to reach that nice even number of 400lbs. Especially since she only needs a couple of pounds and change of food to reach the weight necessary.â€
1258
1259Affetto wanted to say something, to just speak his mind, but he said nothing. Plus, he was also silently wondering why he wanted to speak against or to her. He was kind of enjoying his own little gain and he would definitely be enjoying Aurora's gain when it happened and he had a very nice and clear visual of it.
1260
1261Still, as he thought and ate and watched, his weight continued to climb. He had no real idea what weight he was at currently, but he knew he was certainly in the 200lb range by now. He had taken a moment to unbutton his pants (he was silently cursing himself for choosing blue jeans for this) since they were becoming more than a little uncomfortable.
1262
1263His stomach was continuing it's march across his lap as his sagging male breasts became even larger and started to sag down over his belly. His choice of a tee shirt was proving to be......not the best, but certainly not the worst. Idly, he was thinking about his own body popping some buttons off of a button up shirt. That was definitely not something he expected to be a turn on as he felt his member get erect once again.
1264
1265The sound of tearing began to echo out as he swallowed another forkful. Moving a hand down, he felt over his rounding rear end and noted a few new tears in the seat of his pants. Well, that was more than a little embarrassing.
1266
1267“I have spare clothes for the both of you should you outgrow the outfits you brought. In this line of work, one must always be prepared for such eventualities. So, having spare clothes just in case someone outgrows them is an absolute must since most of my customers do in fact outgrow their clothes. I also arrange for a line of credit from a local store to acquire more clothes that better fit them since most of their wardrobe at home is likely no longer an option. Though, I have found exceptions some of the time with folks that have prepared in advance for an appointment with me and what the after effects will be.â€
1268
1269“Are we one of the exceptions?†Affetto asked as he saw Aurora shake her head.
1270
1271“I did go shopping for extra clothes that were larger, but they were more for my current size and up to maybe a hundred or so pounds extra, and that is jut for myself. For you, whatever clothes you have is what you've bought yourself. The main reason was I was still working out the logistics of just how you were going to gain weight. I ultimately decided to do it all in one day, which means I needed magic. Sure, I could have used my own magic, but that sort of magic isn't really my specialty and I didn't want to create a problem by screwing something up. So, I hired someone that could.â€
1272
1273More tears sounded out as the gray unicorn was forced to turn away from Aurora because something else had gotten his undivided attention once again. This time, it was his shirt that was giving up ground. Though, his pants were still losing not just the fight, but the entire war. Not that that was a bad thing as it meant that his weight was actually climbing as it was supposed to since Aurora kind of wanted him to be a bit bigger.
1274
1275After another 5 to 10 minutes, he found himself unable to eat anymore as he had apparently reached his peak. Though, that was just the food required for the gaining that was to occur. He was still gaining some from what he had already consumed and would probably gain a bit more to reach that magical number.
1276
1277As he took this time to check out his larger and still somewhat expanding figure, he was a little intrigued by everything. His stomach was now what he would consider a belly. It was soft and flabby underneath that warm layer of fur. It also hung out between his shirt and his unbuttoned pants. His butt was bigger than he had ever remembered and seemed to be quite nice and lovely. Aurora certainly enjoyed it as she seemed to be trying to get a better view herself. His arms were a bit thicker and a little flabbier but otherwise didn't look too different. His fingers were starting to look a little more like sausages as fat seemed to fill them, but they weren't getting nearly as much as the rest of his body. His torso and legs seemed to be getting the most with his arms coming in at a close second.
1278
1279When his gain finally finished, he looked across and saw that Aurora seemed a little thicker, but otherwise looked the same as she had when they had woken up that morning. Her clothes still seemed to fit quite well, though her blouse was straining a little bit.
1280
1281With a smile, Azure motioned for the plates to be removed. “Alright, you, I've got some clothes on a rack in the next room, so go get dressed. And....pick some of the larger clothes so you won't have to change since you still have 50lbs to gain.â€
1282
1283As he left, the white unicorn turned her gaze towards Aurora, “Now, I am going to be helping you a hundred pounds at a time. The time it takes to get from one restaurant to another will aid me in resting. Plus, it gives the enchantment time to fully wear off. At the buffet, whatever remains is what you'll be gaining. I will modify the enchantment slightly so that certain products have a specific effect, but those products will be largely overshadowed by the rest that you eat. Milk and ice cream will help increase your bust a bit more so that you are a bit more endowed like he wants. I won't keep it on the entire time since you may get a serious sweet tooth for ice cream. But, I can keep it on for a reasonable amount of time before getting a signal from you that your bust has gotten big enough.â€
1284
1285Aurora nodded and turned her head as Affetto returned in a pair of relatively loose fitting sweat pants and a loose looking tee shirt. Not overly fashionable, but certainly practical for the day's events. Azure nodded in approval and then whistled as a few dragons were seen entering the nearby room to remove the clothing.
1286
1287“Those are my associates. They'll be following us and they'll be ready to help Aurora here as she outgrows her clothes. Now, if you will follow me, we'll get moving.â€
1288
1289Outside the restaurant was a large RV that was parked by the curb on one of the side streets. Affetto scratched his rounder and much softer side as he looked over the large vehicle that looked like a bus, and it was probably based on one given the size and shape.
1290
1291“This thing is our home away from home and doubles as a nice private area for eating at times. For those that eat and outgrow, sometimes it is best to not be in public. McDonald's will certainly give us that option, but the culture based restaurants won't really have that option.â€
1292
1293“Buffets don't either,†Affetto indicated as they boarded the RV.
1294
1295“This is true, but I've reserved a time slot for the buffet, so.......officially, it will be closed for business to the public for a period of time while Aurora finishes off her epic gain. This is not the first time I've done this. Hell, you just saw what it's like when I reserve a restaurant for a few hours specifically for this.â€
1296
1297Both Aurora and Affetto looked back to where the Coltrean restaurant was before the latter seemed to nod. Once aboard and seated, Affetto watched as Azure slid into the driver's seat and started the large RV up.
1298
1299“Just relax, it'll be about 35 minutes to the McDonald's. I have to time each restaurant binging about 30 to 40 minutes from each other on a good day, so it will probably take a little longer given the fact we are in an RV and traffic was not taken into account. The reason is so that the enchantment can kind of wear off to avoid an overdose.â€
1300
1301Both equines nodded and made themselves comfortable as the RV started off and began to navigate it's way down the city streets to the location in question. There were more McDonald's restaurants that were en route, but they were too close and as such, not available as an option because of that.
1302
1303“You mentioned an ice cream place earlier?†Affetto noted.
1304
1305“I did. But, when I called, they were uninterested in helping out with the gain. However, they were willing to serve us after we had taken care of everything else. And yes, they are keenly aware of how large your female companion will be when we arrive.â€
1306
1307With a nod, he leaned back again to get comfortable and wait for them to arrive at their destination. After a little more time, they finally arrived at the destination. Having parked at a McDonald's that had truck parking so the RV could be parked without issue, Azure climbed out of the driver's seat and exited the large vehicle to go and speak with someone that worked there.
1308
1309Aurora and Affetto had been asked to stay in the RV and to just wait. As they did so, Affetto noticed a black limousine pulling up outside. The black Chrysler 300 limo seemed quite nice if a bit used. Though, given what it was used for, it wasn't that surprising really. As the gray unicorn stood up and took a look around, he was amazed by just how nice the interior of the RV was. It looked much nicer than the condo he had back in Liberty City.
1310
1311“She's walking back,†Aurora stated. The white furred changeling ran a hand through her long blonde hair before brushing a few strands out of her face.
1312
1313“Okay, you guys just find yourselves a nice seat and get comfortable. The manager and a few of the workers will bring out all the food needed for both the meal and the enchantment. I'll try to work to do the same thing at the other restaurants since privacy is key. Though, with the buffet, that won't be necessary.â€
1314
1315And so, the trips to and from the fast food joint began as Azure encouraged the pair to go ahead and start working on what would be their meal. As she put it, they were to eat until full, then she would activate the spell to begin the enchantment. It would stop them once enough food had been eaten to achieve the desired weight, but they would not stop expanding till that weight had been reached.
1316
1317So, just like at the Coltrean restaurant, it began again. Once both equines were full, Azure casted the enchantment. And again, just like before, she had to cast it twice because of two reasons. The first was that it was two different weights while the second was because Affetto finished his own meal first. Being the smaller of the two, it wasn't that hard to believe, though size didn't always mean a larger appetite because bigger or a smaller appetite because smaller. That was something she had learned in her travels and work as a mage of sorts.
1318
1319As the effects began to kick in from the eating, the growths began again. Affetto could feel himself getting a little heavier as he swallowed a mouthful of french fries. But, he was not alone in this. He focused less on his own growth and more on Aurora since she would be noticeably changing this time around.
1320
1321Her belly was starting to press against that blouse as the buttons began to strain and spread apart. The ever present threat that they would pop off one by one was a rather alluring one. Her breasts also seemed to be getting a bit of attention as they grew like large water balloons (though not quite the same way) to stretch and press against her top. He hadn't been with her when she had gotten dressed that morning, so he was a little surprised to see that it was becoming quite apparent that she had decided to not wear a bra.
1322
1323As his eyes traced over her figure, he saw her thighs thickening with luscious flab as her pants began to complain a bit in protest. Rather interesting since sweat pants were not known for making that many complaints in regards to dealing with large loads squeezed into them.
1324
1325With a giggle, Aurora took a moment to take a slight break from eating to trace her growing figure with her fingers. First she circled her growing and swelling mammaries before hefting up her growing belly (this had the additional effect of popping off a couple of buttons). Next, she traced her luscious and growing thighs with a sly smile before leaning forwards a bit to smack her rear.
1326
1327“And this is part of the reason why we're doing this in my RV. Privacy is a key factor in being able to do stuff like this,†Azure noted.
1328
1329Affetto barely recognized that someone else had been talking as his attention was solely on the changeling mare sitting before him more or less. With how the RV was set up on the inside, they were sitting on opposite sides on a couple of couches.
1330
1331If her gains kept up like this, Affetto might have to make a few orders himself to have Aurora get even bigger so that he could watch her grow even more beautiful right before his very own eyes. It was just so wonderful for that gray unicorn male to watch that gorgeous white furred changeling female balloon up with fat like that. What really made it interesting for him was just how little was required. In most cases, one would need tons of food and a period of weeks or months at the very least to accomplish even a fraction of what she was gaining (and soon would be). Though, that being said, a ton of food was still going to be required just for her to maintain her upcoming weight.
1332
1333As he finished his food for his own gain, he watched her continue with hers. McDonald's would certainly become an all time favorite of his after this. After the food and gains had finished, it was on to the next place. The Coltalian and Marexican places more or less had the same thing, just different food. They would arrive, Azure would enter the restaurant to discuss things with the manager, and then the food would be brought aboard the RV because apparently things worked out just fine.
1334
1335Now, with those restaurants, it was mainly for Aurora since she was the one doing the primary gaining at this point. But, of course, Affetto also had to have some as well since the food smelled good and he wanted to do more than just smell it. What struck him as odd was the fact Azure wasn't eating despite being obviously hungry.
1336
1337After they had arrived at the buffet, he got his answer to the question he had asked several times about why Azure wasn't eating. “I can't eat because the spell/enchantment has to do with food. The caster must be hungry during the whole process. Basically, it means I'll become an eating machine once I get back to the hotel. Not that my husband will mind. In fact, he actually kind of prefers that sort of thing.â€
1338
1339Nodding, the gray furred unicorn took a glance over towards Aurora. Over the past few hours of eating and working with the enchantments, she had changed quite a bit. Her girth had really increased as she had literally added 300 additional pounds to her figure to bring her up to an even 700lbs. And now, as they stood outside the buffet, the home stretch was finally in sight.
1340
1341Turning to his left, the heavier unicorn male looked over the massive changeling female. Having busted out of a couple of blouses so far, she was currently on her third. Like the others, it was the same light blue color to better go with her fur and hair. Her large breasts were pressing against it from the inside and threatening to pop the buttons off by pressure alone. This was before she had eaten anything as she had literally gotten this blouse after the last restaurant, that Marexican place.
1342
1343Her large belly was hanging out again since the bottom of her shirt and the top of her pants couldn't quite make it over, or maybe she didn't want them to since it gave him a nice view of her belly and her deep bellybutton.
1344
1345As his eyes moved from her belly on down, he looked over her thighs. If he had to guess, he'd say that they were almost as thick as he had been at the beginning of the day. Not quite there yet, though that was bound to change in the next few hours or so......max. Moving his head, he looked as her tail swished about over that massive rear end and the impressive canyon of a crack she had. Speaking of canyons, her canyon that was further up was actually a lot nicer.
1346
1347Her arms were thick, like young saplings that had had a few years of growth. Her upper arms were starting to look like those holiday hams, which he found to be quite the turn on. And then there was her muzzle. Short and stocky, it had changed a great deal since that morning. She had three chins and dimpled cheeks that actually made her look really cute.
1348
1349“Alright, shall we head inside?†Azure asked as she lead the way in. As the two equines followed her, Affetto took notice of how nice the place looked on the inside. He also noticed how terribly empty it was too. But, of course, she had more or less rented out the entire space so they could have some privacy while Aurora ate and grew bigger. Though, there was still a limit on just what Azure would allow them to do. Sex wasn't really an option nor was anything else along those lines. She didn't care if they played with themselves or anything, just so long as it was kept decent and “PG13†as she had put it.
1350
1351Moments later, the white unicorn female motions towards a table as Aurora sits down followed by Affetto. Azure had made absolutely certain that they sit across from each other. Affetto wasn't completely sure of the reason for this, but maybe it was because she trusted positions such as this to keep folks mostly civil and to prevent things that should be completely private from happening during things that are okay for partially or mostly private situations like the one currently.
1352
1353“Alright, this is what is going to happen,†Azure began. “I am going to have some food arranged here for Aurora to eat. Once the food has been eaten and she is full, I will enact the enchantment. Now, there will be a bit more to it, but that is irrelevant at the current time. Once it is enacted, I will remove myself from the area. I'll still be here, just back behind them food counters so I can kind of keep an eye and make sure everything goes according to plan. But, apart from that, you two will just have each other. Now, there will be a couple of servers that will take care of bringing plates of food, removing plates, and refilling cups. Once the gain is finished, we'll take some extra time to wait here till my husband returns and then part ways once he has. Though, if you are willing to rent a hotel room for the night, we can drive back to the hotel. And before you comment, the RV is nice, but sometimes you just want a proper bed and all the proper amenities while not being inside something with the same dimensions as a bus.â€
1354
1355“When do we start? I'm starving,†Aurora stated as she rubbed her big furry and flabby belly.
1356
1357“Momentarily. I'll be getting a bite to eat here once all this is finished, though you are expected to eat and you can eat if you so desire, which you probably do since a 350lb stallion typically has a bigger appetite than a 200lb one.â€
1358
1359All eyes turned towards a few waitresses as they brought out the first few platters of food. Quite the varied assortment too. Mashed potatoes, pizza, green beans, some grilled and fried meats, several different kinds of seafood, and of course, a big cheesy mound of french fries. But, of course, all this was just the starter, the fuel to get the whole thing going.
1360
1361With a smile, Aurora picked up a large piece of fried chicken and took a big bite before swallowing the meat down. Affetto just grabbed a handful of fries to munch on as he watched Aurora eat. This had pretty much been him at the past few restaurants. He would snack while watching one hell of a show.
1362
1363As she ate, Azure waited. After finishing off the first piece of chicken, she set the bone down on the plate before using a fork to scoop and eat the mashed potatoes till they were gone before repeating the same exact process with the green beans.
1364
1365Having finished her first plate, Aurora wasn't even close to full because of the vast expanse of her stomach within that wonderful belly of hers. So, she moved onto the second plate. Working through the pizza one slice at a time, she made sure to enjoy and savor the assortment of flavors from the cheeses, the sauce, and the lovely toppings.
1366
1367Again, Affetto just sat there and watched. The 350lb unicorn male was rubbing his own flabby belly as he watched her binge. And to be honest, it wasn't even really a binge yet. Well, actually, it kind of was given the amount she was eating and just how quickly too.
1368
1369Having finished the pizza, she turned her attention to a platter that had some nice and juicy grilled steaks. Utilizing a knife and a fork, she quickly carved up the meats into a bunch of bite sized chunks before going to town and consuming each and every piece.
1370
1371As Affetto's eyes glanced to the side, he noticed that Azure's hands and fingers were waving and weaving. That meant that Aurora was close to getting done with her meal and would soon be starting the slight period of gorging to acquire the remainder of the 300lbs she would be gaining. 30 pounds of food is what would be needed to add an additional 300lbs to her frame.
1372
1373And so, as Aurora finally reached her fill, the enchantment was cast and the game had officially begun. With that, Azure politely excused herself to the 'back' to keep watch while Aurora went to town.
1374
1375Leaning back to get more comfortable, Affetto scratched his belly some as Aurora gulped down a large container of milk. As she finished it, he noticed something. Actually, he'd already begun to notice something as all the food she had eaten prior to the casting of the enchantment was starting to have an effect as she was starting to swell out with fat again, but this was something else......something different.
1376
1377As his eyes scoured over her, he took notice of her breasts and how they seemed to be getting a bit more than the rest of her currently. Raising an eyebrow, he watched as her breasts swelled like water balloons on tap. The buttons on her current blouse soon began to pop one after another until they spilled free. It was like the dam had just burst and the water was now rushing out at a hundred miles an hour.
1378
1379His eyes got wide as he watched those two orbs swell out. The nipples at the tips were rather large, easily big enough to stick a finger into. It was then he noticed her make some sort of a gesture as the growth seemed to subside, though it didn't stop. Her breasts just didn't seem to have the primary focus of her gain anymore.
1380
1381With her breasts no longer getting the 'lion's' share, he turned his attention elsewhere as he watched her belly continue to swell out. As he watched, he could hear her as she ate and ate and ate. Kind of wondering what she was munching on now, he shifted his gaze to see her chowing down on a rack of ribs. Not one of his most favorite foods because it was meat and it looked quite like the backbone of just about everybody he knew. So, eating ribs was almost like cannibalism to him, so he tried to avoid it for the most part.
1382
1383With a wave of his hand, he again shifted his gaze to try and look at something that was much more pleasing. Spying her thighs as they thickened, he focused a bit more on them as he occasionally shifted his eyes to her belly and breasts as well. As each part of her swelled and filled with fat, he became faintly aware of the fact that her chair was now starting to complain about the ever increasing load it was being forced to hold up. In fact, he even cast a glance down towards the chair for a moment (though he couldn't see much of it apart from the back because of her body) before returning his gaze to what was more important and better to look at, the fattening female changeling.
1384
1385Aurora was enjoying all the attention she was getting from Affetto. Cupping her larger than average breasts thanks to Azure, she wondered if perhaps she should have their size increased a bit more, though perhaps not given the fact they were already increasing a little bit and in tandem with the rest of her body.
1386
1387As she swallowed the rest of the rib meat she had just consumed, she utilized some nearby napkins to wipe her face and muzzle clean before continuing on. She was so preoccupied with her enjoyment of the meal she failed to realize just how much she was actually eating, and as such, had actually gone past the original limit set by Azure.
1388
1389Fortunately, Azure was keenly aware of what was going on and was in complete control. Aurora would like feel more than a little overfull when finished, but the 10 to 1 ratio would only be in effect for the amount consumed prior to that stop point. All excess would just be that, excess. And it would be a 1 to 1 equivalent ratio.
1390
1391Affetto was actually reaching his breaking point as all of the buttons had popped off her blouse by this point in time. Her current pair of pants had new tears and holes that had appeared because of her burgeoning form and expanding flabby furry flesh. She was so wonderfully beautiful that he just wanted to have her.
1392
1393However, there were a few things that were in essence, stopping him in his tracks. First and foremost was the fact that they were not really alone. There was the manager and staff of the restaurant that were nearby, some of which were still making rounds of plate and glass delivery. Another reason was that Azure was still nearby and watching. Though, he kind of suspected she probably wouldn't have too much of an issue with sexual acts, it would just be really awkward. His belief was that the main reason it would be so awkward is that she would probably be aroused just watching it, given the reactions he'd seen out of the white unicorn thus far.
1394
1395Still, she really wasn't what he wanted to be thinking about as he again turned both his thoughts and his gaze back to Aurora. Apparently, during his period of reverie as he mused, she had hit the wall and stopped eating. Azure had mentioned something feeling full once hitting the limit, but his guess was that Aurora had bypassed that limit at some point. Now she looked like all she wanted to do was take a long nap to digest the food.
1396
1397As her body continued to expand from the remnants of the food fueling the spell, Azure reentered the area. “Nicely done. I am quite impressed. Not too many people can eat past the limit set without feeling sick, but you managed to do so and still keep eating for a good 5 to 10 minutes past the limit. Oh, because it is an enchantment, I kind of have a link to it and am fully aware of when the limit is hit. But, only so long as I stay within a certain range and maintain a visual most of the time.â€
1398
1399Aurora simply moaned as she rubbed her massive and taut belly that was still expanding and spreading out like rising dough. Her sides were getting covered with love handles and flabby rolls as her back widened and her butt grew out. At her current rate, she would soon reach the peak and stop growing.....at least until the excess food digested. However, her clothes would not likely last so long, so Azure motioned towards her associates that a change of clothes was needed.......again.
1400
1401As they left, Phoenix entered. The dragon seemed a bit happy as he looked over the swollen changeling female. Her oversized breasts that would make watermelons seem small by comparison. That huge beanbag chair of a belly that seemed to still be expanding as he watched. Her thighs were thickening still and were like tree trunks that were getting thicker. Her back and butt were easily two or three times as wide as he was since one of her thighs was more or less his waist.
1402
1403“Any good news? And could you please stop ogling her?†Azure questioned.
1404
1405“Well, there is both good and bad news. The good news is that I discovered that the mares that were Twilight and her friends are not really Twilight and her friends, they were merely changelings playing as them.â€
1406
1407“I guess the bad news is that you have no idea where the real mares are,†Azure noted with a guess since it seemed the logical conclusion.
1408
1409“Unfortunately,†he nodded with a sigh. “You certainly went all out this time, didn't you?â€
1410
1411“You bring back my car?†Affetto asked as Phoenix nodded, but chuckled.
1412
1413“Question. Do you really think she will fit?â€
1414
1415Affetto turned around. The gray furred unicorn looked over the large mass that was now Aurora. She looked like she could still be mobile and walk......somehow. But, he had to be honest, with how wide she was and how far her belly kind of stretched out in front.....she wasn't about to fit into his car.
1416
1417“Why don't you guys get her squeezed into the RV. I'll take the car and have it modified to better fit a female of her size. I'll even take care of all the costs associated with it.â€
1418
1419Affetto was about to thank him when he left, leaving Azure to look towards both him and Aurora. He was about to say something to Azure, but decided against it as he turned around and walked back over to Aurora. She was still growing somewhat, and those massive and impressive breasts were begging for a squeezing, but he settled to just use one as a pillow as he leaned against her with a smile.
1420
1421Azure coughed politely and muttered something about moving a few things and opening a few other things before leaving the two alone for a few minutes.
1422
1423“If you play nice, I may get even bigger for you......but let's not get too overboard and work on our relationship a little more,†Aurora stated as she caressed his head with her flabby hand. “I hope that Phoenix finds Twilight and the others.....I really do.â€
1424
1425With that, she closed her eyes and decided to try and get a little bit of rest before anything else happened. After all, it had been a long and very 'fulfilling' day.
