It was late when Lady Madison got home. The lights were on. Maybe he friends were having a party. Maybe she'd play with them a few minutes before hitting the bath and going to bed.
She opened the door and entered. There they were, all of them looking at her. "Ooh, Lady Madison," Shalista said. "Did you let that library guy plow you?"
"We didn't screw," Lady Madison said. "We met up with a barbarian, he got drunk, and we talked. That's all."
"So you got plowed by a barbarian and a bookworm?" Shalista asked.
"I didn't get plowed!" Lady Madison said.
"You're no fun," Cordelia said. "Well, I'm off to bed."
Wendy followed.
"Cordelia's right," Sophia said. "You're boring."
"To my knowledge, we're all virgins," Lady Madison said.
"I almost wasn't the other day," Lady Glinda said. "Oh...Corlos."
"Corlos?" Lady Madison asked. "That's the one we talked to."
"Don't change the subject," Shalista said. "You're bland. We sat here waiting for a juicy story and only to find that you just talked."
"So I wasn't trying to get laid," Lady Madison said. "It's not my fault you got your hopes up. Whatever happened to sexy warriors not having to be sluts?"
"You're different," Sophia said. "You're Lady Madison. Everyone would want to know about the man or men who made you weak. It'd be so exciting."
"I'm going to bed," Lady Madison grumbled. Then, she looked at Sophia. "And when I get back on duty, the first thing I'm doing is firing you."
Sophia gasped. "Ack! Fired?"
"Ooh, you've done it now, Legs," Shalista said.
"Y-you're not s-serious are you?" Sophia asked.
Lady Madison smiled winked. "Is that exciting enough for you?"
"You're so mean," Sophia whined. "I aged ten years just now."
"The fact still stands, Maddy," Shalista said. "You've got to be more exciting. Get in touch with your wild side."
Lady Madison put her hands on her hips. "And what do you suggest?
Shalista let out an evil laugh. "Let's give the ole Pegasus a little late night ride."
She wanted to ride Ravage? That didn't sound so bad, but what was her endgame? "What was that laugh for? What do you really want?"
"I just want to enjoy the night sky," Shalista answered. "The weather is so nice, it'd be ashamed to let it go to waste."
"How would I be getting in touch with my wild side by riding Ravage with you at night?" Lady Madison asked.
"Have you ever done it?" Shalista asked.
"No."
"There you have it," Shalista said. "You haven't lived until you've ridden a Pegasus at night. Don't worry. I'll be there to protect you."
For whatever reason, Shalista really wanted to ride Ravage and there was no way she could do that without her there. Wendy is the only stranger who could handle him. "I guess we can go on a nighttime ride," Lady Madison said. "Ravage tends to have excess energy to burn at night, so let's help him with that."
So they walked out to the stable and pulled out Ravage, who seemed more than happy to be out at night, stretching his wings and letting out a mighty neigh. Lady Madison stroked his mane and asked, "Are you up for a night ride?"
The Pegasus neighed, as if he was saying, "yes."
Lady Madison climbed on a said, "Okay, Shalista. Hop on."
"Okay," Shalista said. "Just give me a minute to stretch."
Lady Madison contemplated things until she felt Shalista climb on. "Ready? Hold on." She whipped the reins, causing Ravage to gallop into a run and take off.
When they got above the city, Lady Madison looked down. Everything was lit up so beautifully. She'd never seen the city like this. "Wow! It's so pretty." She was glad she let Shalista talk her into this. "Thank you, Shalista."
"And thank you," Shalista said.
Then, she felt Shalista take her hands from around her waist. "Hey, that's dangerous. Do you want to fall and die?"
When Shalista wrapped her arms back around her waist and pressed up against her back, something felt off. Nipples? "Please tell me you're not topless back there."
"I'm not," Shalista said. "I'm totally naked!"
"Shalista…" Lady Madison grumbled. "When did you find time to take off your clothes?"
"Why do you think it took me so long to get on before we took off?" Shalista asked. "I was taking off my bottom and boots. Now I'm riding free in the sky. You should do it, too. It feels good."
Lady Madison grumbled. "No. What I should do is kick you off and watch you plummet to your death, you exhibitionist. I can't believe you tricked me into doing this."
"Aww, don't be like that, Maddy. Just give it a try. Have I ever steered you wrong?"
"I'm not taking off all my clothes in public," Lady Madison said. "This sexy armor is enough."
"Come on, let's find an empty and run wild," Shalista said. "It'll be fun."
"Feel free to jump off and run around."
"Aww," Shalista groaned. "You suck. Okay, just drop me off. I'll get back home somehow."
"I'm not letting you walk home naked. Exhibitionist." Then, she turned Ravage around and headed home.
When they landed, Lady Madison apologized to Ravage. "Sorry I had to put you through that. At least the weather was nice, right?"
"Thanks for the ride," Shalista said.
"I'm so furious I don't even want to look at you right now. Just...have a restful night."
"Someone's grouchy," Shalista said. After picking up the rest of her armor she started walking toward the guest house. "Okay, have a restful night."
Lady Madison grumbled. Then grumbled again. And grumbled once more. "Darn it." She waited a few minutes, then the armor came off and she mounted Ravage.
Once they were airborne, she took it all in. "Huh. This does feel good." Shalista was a genius. She's introduced her to the joys of sexy armor. Now, there was the joy of flying a Pegasus in the nude at night. What else would Shalista show her?
She flew out beyond the city walls and landed in an open field where nobody was around. "Okay, Ravage. Time for a little break." Then she climbed off and plopped down in the grass, lying down and looking up at the sky. It was a clear, starry night. "What a night."
After admiring the sky for about an hour, it was time to head home. She got up, climbed on Ravage and headed back home. After landing, she immediately took him to the stable. "That was fun, wasn't it, boy?" she asked, stroking his mane. "You want to do it again someday, right, boy?"
Ravage huffed.
"Yes, yes," she said in a soothing tone.
After she exited the stable, she saw Shalista standing there nude. "Urk!" How embarrassing.
"Well, look who decided to go for a late night streak," Shalista said. "And after you looked down your nose and gave me all that self-righteous crap."
"I'm sorry," Lady Madison apologized.
"No big deal," Shalista said. "Just take me next time. Stupidity is so much more fun with friends." She turned and headed for the guest house. "Have a restful night. Oh, by the way, nice breasts."
"Shalista…," Lady Madison grumbled.
