Reformation Part 6

 

They eventually came to the conclusion that Cozy Glow needed to interact with children around her age and as such would be sent back to school sooner then they had planned. Before that, however they decided that they would have to prepare Cozy for the interactions that going back to school. For that they would bring in young ponies to spend some time with her. After a short discussion the best ponies for this job were Applebloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo.

 

Cozy Glow sat alone in her room in deep thought. She wasn’t sure what to do with herself. On one hand, she was considering embracing Twilight and her friends teachings and going along with whatever they had planned for her. On the other, she still had her stubborn pride which still made her want to resist any reformation attempts.

 

Her contemplation was interrupted when the door to her room opened and Rainbow Dash stepped in.

 

Rainbow Dash was the most annoying teacher for Cozy Glow. That honor used to go to Pinkie Pie but once she got used to her antics that mostly faded. It was a bit of a surprise to see her enter the room as she had never seen her come in before.

 

„Hey Cozy, you doing alright?”

„What do you want?”

„Well we had a meeting and talked some things over.”

„Oh wonderful a new way to torture me! What will it be now?”

 

Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes. „Well, we decided that you need to spend some time with other ponies besides just us. More specifically ponies around your age.”

„Ugh, great. I don’t have a choice, do I?”

„Nope! They’ll be here soon and I’ll be supervising the four of you.”

 

Upon hearing Dash mention "the four of them" Cozy got a sinking feeling of who she was going to be forced to spend time with.

„Please don’t tell me they’re who I think they are.”

„Well, squirt sorry to say but it’s probably who you think it is.”

 

Of all the ponies Cozy could have been forced to spend time with the only ones worse than those three annoying fillies were a certain group of her former classmates. Needless to say she was not looking forward to this reunion.

 

Before she could begin to protest, Rainbow Dash was already leaving.

„They’ll be here soon. Get ready!”

Left alone once again, a frustrated Cozy Glow could only grumble to herself and wait for what was about to come.

 

About an hour passed when Rainbow Dash returned with three fillies in tow. Cozy didn’t acknowledge them as she laid on her bed, staring at the ceiling. The Cutie Mark Crusaders felt nervous meeting Cozy Glow again. They took a quick look around the room (wincing at the sight of the cane).

 

„Hi, Cozy Glow.” Greeted Scootaloo

...

„How are you?” Asked Sweetie belle.

...

„It’s nice to see ya again.” Said Apple Bloom.

„The feeling’s not mutual.”

 

Rainbow frowned. „Look, Cozy these three came all the way here to keep you company despite what you did and you'll be spending the day with them whether you like it or not. So at least try to have some fun.”

 

„Hmph.”

 

Rainbow sighed. „Why don’t you girls try catching up or something? I’ll go get some snacks in the meantime.”

 

Rainbow left the four fillies alone leaving awkward silence in her wake. In the end it was once again Scootaloo who started speaking: „So We heard you were getting private classes from Rainbow Dash and the others. You learn anything interesting?”

 

„Nope!”

 

„Well do you at least have fun sometimes?” Asked Sweetie Belle.

 

„Well gee, I’m pretty much stuck in this room all day unless I’m in one of those stupid classes or those stupid counseling sessions and my only company are ponies who I don’t even like so what do you think?”

 

„Well to be fair you brought it on yourself.” Said Apple Bloom.

 

„Yea, I guess your right. Had I been more careful and patient I would have won and I wouldn’t be in this mess now.”

 

Apple Bloom frowned. „I don’t think you should have done it in the first place.”

 

„Can’t say I particularly care about what you think nor did I ask for your opinion but thanks for stating it, I’ll be sure to never take it into consideration.”

 

„You were a lot nicer to us before you enacted your evil plan.” Said Sweetie Belle

 

„Being nice to you was one of the hardest things I have ever done! Can you imagine the amount of times I wanted to tell you off or how many things I wanted to call you three? It was pure torture I tell you!” Mocked Cozy.

 

„I can imagine.” Said Applebloom

„You can’t! Not without experiencing it.” Said Cozy

 

„Look” Said Scootaloo. „I know we're not on the best of terms, but we were asked by Twilight to keep you company for today so whether you like it or not, you're stuck with us so deal with it!”

 

„Alright, I’ll play along. Did you plan anything we could do or talk about?”

„Oh, um, not really.”

„So you three accepted this request from Princess Twilight Sparkle herself and didn’t even plan anything out?”

„H-hey! It’s not like a simple visit needs planning!”

„Everything can be made better with a bit of planning, Scootaloo.” Said Cozy „I would have expected better from the three of you.”

 

Cozy Glow knew that it was pointless to get into petty arguments with these three but she was pretty sure that the only way she could make spending time with them even remotely enjoyable was to get under their skin.

 

„Well at least we didn’t come up with a plan as stupid as yours!” Shouted Sweetie Belle angering Cozy Glow, who took pride in her scheming abilities (despite her failure).

 

What followed was a heated argument between Cozy and her visitors. Insults were exchanged and names were called until finally, Cozy snapped, flew up to Scootaloo and punched her in the face causing the orange Pegasus filly to recoil and hold a hoof to her now bleeding snout. Unfortunately for Cozy Glow, it was at that moment that Rainbow returned and she saw the whole thing.

 

Rainbow Dash was not happy. She was about to shout at Cozy but managed to stop herself. Her friends told her to be patient and she was going to handle this as calmly as possible. She glared at Cozy then walked up to Scootaloo.

 

„You alright, Scoots?”

„Y-yea Rainbow Dash!”

„Good.”

 

There was an uncomfortable moment of silence as Rainbow thought about what she should do. It didn't take long for her to come to a decision.

 

„Could you three go outside for a bit?" Dash asked the Cutie Mark Crusaders. "I gotta have a talk with Cozy Glow.” She said while awkwardly rubbing the back of her head.

 

The three fillies had a good idea of what that „talk” meant and actually felt some sympathy towards Cozy. Before they left Scootaloo decided to try and bail Cozy out.

 

„Hey, Rainbow Dash.”

„Yea, Squirt?”

„This wasn’t totally Cozy’s fault. I mean, we were also arguing with her and I think I might have set her off.”

„I see, did you start it?”

„N-no.”

„Did you hit her?”

Scootaloo shook her head.

„Then you're not at fault here.” Seeing that her honorary sister still looked a bit guilty she tried to reassure her: „Hey don’t worry, it’s not like I’m gonna beat her senseless. This should only take a few minutes tops.”

Scootaloo nodded left the room with her friends.

 

Cozy wondered why Scoolaloo would try to protect her. She did hit her, after all. Whatever the reason it didn’t really matter since it looked like she was getting yet another spanking and this time, with those stupid fillies probably hearing the whole thing. Just great.

 

„So.” Bagan Rainbow „I don’t think I need to tell you what you did wrong.”

...

„Seriously kid, I was gone for only a few minutes and you already got yourself in trouble.”

„Oh, spare me the lecture.”

Rainbow obliged and thought about how best to do this. She looked out the window and got an idea.

„Wait here!” She ordered and flew outside. A few seconds later, she returned with a small cloud, much to Cozy’s confusion.

„Your gonna spank me with a cloud?”

 

Rainbow didn’t answer. She simply picked up Cozy and rammed her through the cloud, causing the front half of her body to pierce through it leaving her entire backside separate and vulnerable. Confused, she tried squirming her way out but found that she couldn’t escape. It was like being stuck in a fluffly wall with her front and back sticking out of either side.

 

„A little trick us pegasai can do.” Rainbow Dash said as she stuffed Cozy’s hooves and tail to the cloud. „With a bit of tinkering a Pegasus can trap another pony in a cloud. I won’t go into details, but this used to be a common way to restrain criminals a long time ago.”

 

Cozy actually knew of this trick, but didn’t think it was possible to do it in such a short amount of time. This was one of the frustrating things about Rainbow Dash: she was clearly highly knowledgeable in things Pegasus magic yet, she constantly acted like an immature idiot, sometimes even while teaching.

 

Cozy's thoughts were interrupted when she felt a sting on her butt. Apparently, Rainbow was indeed sparing her from any lectures and decided to start as soon as she secured Cozy cozily in the cloud.

 

Another stinging slap landed on the filly's butt electing a pained gasp. Cozy had no idea what Rainbow was even hitting her with as she didn't see her Dash grabbing any implement and this hurt way too much to be a hoofspanking.

 

What Rainbow Dash was using to spank the filly’s flank was her wings. Pegasus wings could make surprisingly great spanking tools as long as they were attached to skilled flyers and if the spanker knew how to properly hit with it.

 

Unfortunately for Cozy, Rainbow Dash was perhaps the fastest pegasus in Equestria giving her wings plenty of strength for what she was doing and she knew exactly how to hit in just the right way (courtesy of her parents).

 

And so, the rainbow maned pegasus stood there sideways to her pupil's backside giving her constant painful wingslaps.

 

As her punishment went on, Cozy realized that the individual wingslaps didn’t actually hurt as much at first as with other implements. The lack of initial pain, however was more than made up for the burning sensation that followed each slap and every hit increased that burning feeling. The cloud blocked her forehooves from trying to reach back and her hind hooves and tail were all embedded in the cloud leaving her with little room to move about to try and ease her suffering. All she could do is lay there, slightly shift her bottom, kick around with her forelegs and hope that it would be over soon.

 

Her hopes turned into reality as she didn’t feel any more slaps. With a sigh, the now teary eyed filly waited to be let out of the cloud.

 

Instead of her expected release happenning, she felt a sharp pain yet again on her bottom. This time, she realized from the pain this was from the cane. She yelped loudly as two more hits landed on her flank in quick succession.

 

„Aaand were done.” Said Rainbow Dash as she put the cane back to its place and got Cozy out of the cloud. She then set her down flank first on top of it. Cozy gasped when her butt touched the cloud, but soon settled down as she realized how nice and cool it was.

 

„Feels pretty nice, doesn’t it? I remember how good it felt to sit on one of these after being punished. Could have done without my parents constant doting though.”

„I missed clouds.” Muttered Cozy.

„I can imagine. Tell you what, if you behave yourself for the rest of the day, I’ll let you keep this one.” Rainbow thought for a moment. „And I’ll convince Twilight to get the cane out of here. How does that sound?”

That was something Cozy could get behind.

 

„Alright, but don’t expect me to suddenly be friends with those three!”

„Nopony’s gonna force your kid, but I expect you to at least try to get along with them.”

„Fine.”

„You want us to leave you alone for a bit?”

Cozy noddeed.

„Alright, we’ll be back in ten minutes, think about what you did in the meantime.”

Rainbow Dash left, leaving Cozy alone on her new cloud.

 

Dsh addressed the three fillies waiting outside. After making sure Scootaloo was alright she told them to not bring up this incident or any another punishment Cozy may or may not have gotten beforeit unless Cozy herself decided to bring it up.

 

Ten minutes later, Dash and the Crusaders returned. The four fillies felt quite awkward even as Dash offered each of them snacks. She soon left them alone. Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo spent the entire day with Cozy Glow with the occasional checkups from Dash. It was quite awkward at first, but they ended up having a good time overall. The whole thing ended up almost like a sleepover.

 

That night, after the three visitors left, Rainbow met up with Twilight to discuss the day’s events.

 

„Of course Cozy got herself into trouble again.” Twilight muttered. „At least the rest of the day went well.”

„Yea it did, told you I could handle it.” Boasted Rainbow Dash.

„I never doubted you.”

„And don’t forget to get rid of that cane! She doesn’t need to see it every day.”

„I will. Do you think she’s ready for public classes?”

„She’s still rough around the edges, but I think at this point it would be better to have her interact with other students.”

 

„Your right, I’ll start making preparations. I’m sure she’ll love the opportunity to finally step outside of the castle." Said Twilight who then looked worried. "I’m still worried about the potential risks.”

„Eh, don’t worry! The school is now a lot safer from the kind of stunts she pulled and we’ll be keeping a constant eye on her. If she gets in trouble, well, I’m sure we know by now how to handle it.”

Twilight giggled slightly „I guess your right. This will be another step in helping that filly.”
