"We weren't going to let Twilight be demoted back to Magic Kindergarten just like that! "I will not fail you.". Stepping through them was Spike. "Next stop, Ponyville! Alt. Still, it needed to be done, and the stallion knew he could not forsake priorities for his own wellbeing. Luckily, Twilight's timely appearance, with Cadance in tow, blew her cover. Everypony in the room stood to attention as Chrysalis stepped inside. How do I know? Why was Twilight not corrupted by these Nightmare Forces you speak of? That was the question burdening Applejack's mind, however. We thought leavin' her alone to think about what she had done would be best for her.". ", "But they shouldn't be here in the first place Cadance! Shining Armor was sat down on his rump atop the altar/throne, crestfallen and wallowing in self-disgust. What I'm asking is if you know Twilight did something wrong as well?". I want my new Changelings to be equipped with the finest armours and weapons my blacksmiths can forge. They were perfectly content to leave me to fade out of existence like I was nothing to them, and then, after risking my neck once more to save both you, them and Equestria, they expect me to put together the wedding?! Just make sure you knock before entering.". "Following Twilight and the Element Bearers arrival at the castle, as well as the former's reunion with her brother and foalsitter, it was from that point that Twilight believed something was not right with the bride-to-be. The girls had succeeded in trying to understand Twilight's fury, and she had helped them to do it. One could even say Twilight loved Celestia just as equally as she loved her mother. Nonetheless, it was easy to see why this was such a serious incident. "We're nearly there girls. Rarity opened the bakery door to find what looked like the twisted body of Rainbow Dash lying in a grave she had dug herself, not to mention it wasn't exactly a neat job either. Meanwhile, Rarity had managed to pull herself together. She didn't know it at the time, but she was late for the meeting. Snake Bite bowed without a word. Once more Celestia felt her heart shatter, and this made her feel worse; she and the Sparkle couple had been great friends since the day after they first met, but when it was announced to them that Twilight was to become her star pupil, Velvet had immediate reservations as Twilight was so precious to her as well as Night. Good day to you all!". With a sigh, she chose to come clean. It didn't take long for Rarity to put two and two together; Rainbow was asleep when she crash landed, and now she was only just waking up. Do you understand the motive behind her rage? We'll be waiting.". How much she cared for Twilight was made obvious after she scolded us for betraying her, and we didn't realize it until then just how much everything made sense! "Of course we did!" I want you, ALL OF YOU, to get out of my house at once. said Shining. The Royal Guard was out and about, not only patrolling the streets to find and arrest any Changeling stragglers, but to assist with repair and resettlement efforts. Indeed, it had been 1000 years since I last saw Equestria, and much has changed. "Let me see my sister captain." After taking a look in the mirror to check her face (and after briefly washing it), that's when it clicked. Amidst the cries and pleas of the terrified prisoners, Chrysalis sat atop her throne once more, the wounds from her landing fresh, but unbled. What awaited himself and Twilight now was a long ride home. I am here to save you from the Nightmare Forces that once corrupted me.". However, he was met with no answer as it turned out Celestia had fallen asleep. She was still very ticked off at the Mane 5, not just because they were invading her space, but also because she couldn't trust them to walk out on her again. The tale that Celestia was spinning before her was intriguing her more and more. Cried Pinkie. With another sniffle, Celestia recalled what she had sent Shining out to do. Sniffling her tears up her nostrils, Celestia turned to face Shining. Furthermore, we find it impossible to understand how the group failed to grasp the realization that Twilight had a very close and personal relationship with Cadance, something that we are very keenly aware of, and therefore could not connect the dots that would have exposed the usurper from her veil. Replied Rarity. ", "I failed the Element of Laughter because I chose not to cheer you up." It ain't right of a princess to do something as foalish as a hoofshake." Celestia please help us.". The only question that lingered, however, was how long would that loyalty last? To make me be Celestia's attack dog again?!!". If they were going to be of any help to Twilight at this time, they needed to be safe from anything, therefore Night felt this was for the best. Can you do that Fang? Celestia sighed in annoyance. The minutes passed by, and eventually the balcony doors re-opened, Spike emerging from them once more. "No Granny Smith. Twilight looked up at the door, which she had locked earlier after slamming it shut. Applejack had nothing else to say. But that was the thing. I'm sorry if this interrogation caused you any inconvenience. Cadance figured that Twilight would only answer personally to her; anypony else fell under Spike's jurisdiction. Merciless, unforgiving, unwilling to spare even the smallest quarter. It wasn't long before they reached the bridge that crossed into the treacherous woodland. "Indeed we are.". Cadance did have a right to be angry, considering how close she was with Twilight, but this was the equivalent of sticking thorns in her body. Tears began to flow from their eyes and everything, but most importantly, the last word had fallen to Twilight. There were no villagers though. Another brief pause followed, before Spike made the decision to report to Twilight. It was my pride that convinced me to leave my best friend so I could follow after the Queen of them Changeling thugs, who I foolishly believed to be the real Princess Cadance. Said Applejack. As Celestia continued questioning Luna on her absence during the battle against the Changelings, Shining (who was standing away from them next to the throne room's massive doors) was getting anxious. Rarity was the only one who was sleeping the easiest of them all, but only because she had managed to maintain her composure. ", "Yeah, we screwed up big time." "Ok girls, I trust you are all aware Twilight will not be pleased to see you?". Asked Granny Smith. Having settled in, Chrysalis decided to pass on some fresh orders to her officers. "We understand darling." The cowpony confirmed glumly. Not only did they emotionally scar our beloved daughter, they left her vulnerable and helpless. "Good evening Lady Velvet. "Very well" Replied Cadance. The group was nearing Ponyville, and Cadance knew it was time for them to get ready. Only the Creator knows where they are right now." Is your pride too stubborn for you to admit that the way you treated Twilight was wrong?! "Please don't leave me.", "Shh Sugarcube." With that, Luna spread her wings, before flying off into the distance. Do you want me to cast this protection spell?". Both Night and Velvet looked at each other nervously, before returning their attention to Luna. She's first skeptically about meeting new people, but when she discovered the magic of friendship, her life becomes a little happier. If Spike could tell she was still conflicted with the events of the wedding, then there was no hope of hiding it. As she cried, there were three audible, but gentle knocks on the door. She wondered what could be so important that the Princess needed to speak to her personally. The aura she was sensing was undeniably strong, and bitter in feeling. Act 1 [Later, when Twilight and her friends are setting up for the wedding preparation before The REAL Canterlot Wedding begins] Twilight Sparkle: Seriously, though, I get why the Queen of The Changelings wanted to be with you, but how did you get someone as amazing as Cadance to marry you? She glanced behind her to see Twilight's treehouse/library encased once more in a dark magenta coloured bubble. Disguise yourselves and your men, and we will go hide somewhere nopony will find us. But if there's anything wrong darling, just talk to me, alright?". One did not, and that was Rarity. ", "Shh, it's OK big sister." "There's nowhere in the town we can hide. "They will heal. Said the youngest Royal Guard, a rookie by all appearances. You know what we want, and if you do not surrender, then we will happily walk over you and anypony else who stands in our way to get it". In response, Dark Shroud, another of Chrysalis's officers, and one of the most experienced in her army stepped forth. Many of the city's buildings were damaged in the fighting, particularly by Changeling pegasi divebomb attacks, and much of the populace was displaced in the chaos. With that, Shining left the war room. "Take as much time as you need. Everyone in the Hive could feel it: nothing was going to stop them now. The obvious coldness that the group could feel radiating off her. "Twilight, I won't fool around with you. Night and Velvet gently descended to the ground, their bodies embraced by Luna's inoculation spell. In the last invasion, Chrysalis tried employing a policy wherein her troops would not kill, even those who fought against them. It all started after we had arrived at Canterlot. ", "You were thinking about what had happened, weren't you?". "She..she did what?" "Cadance and Twilight were so close that they did everything together, even the hoofshake. I would do it myself, but I must oversee repairs to the city, as well as the immediate treatment of the injured. She mocked and belittled my efforts to prepare for the wedding, as well as those of the others. ", Applejack cried silently. Stepping inside the library, she made herself comfortable. Staff You will also be in charge of drilling. What kind of ponies are you? You just need to know how to get the message across. Speaking of the latter, Celestia was wondering, on a side note, where she was during the Changeling invasion.

The skin of a killer, Bella!": sparkly vampire skin hits the runway at @DIESEL Autumn/Winter . I don't think I can trust them again, not after that. Having opened the letter and read its contents, Shining learned of how Chrysalis and the remnants of her army had attacked a settlement near the border, burning it to the ground and taking the inhabitants prisoner. Greater matters such as this always overruled the minor details, a fact Cadance did not forget. ", "Yes. "How could I have been so blind Shining?" "Your Majesty, may I present Snake Bite. Any information she could get at this time would be of great assistance to figure out how this happened. Discord Replied Twilight, who lay down on her hindlegs as she crossed her forelegs under her head. "Oh little Twilight Sparkle, I cannot imagine how much it must hurt to have been betrayed and left for dead by those you held close to your heart, those you loved. It was frustrating her to no end. "You're a love-stealing evil thug!". In fact, Twilight even saw her dump a bag of muffins ah' gave her in the trash! If the damage was too great, they would then be assigned a temporary settlement, and led there by a designated Royal Guard soldier. "If you think I'm gonna surrender, you're dead wrong Chrysalis. The Twilight Time Lord, Adventurequest Worlds : Twilight the Hero. Meanwhile, Princess Luna had flown out from Canterlot Castle to the home of Twilight Velvet and Night Light. "Your Majesty?" Cadance was taken by surprise at how quickly the plan went belly-up, but as a firm believer in Twilight, she knew the latter would still allow room for a second chance. Spike barked firmly. Eventually, Celestia got a hold of herself. His attention soon returned to the royal sisters, who were just finishing up Luna's interrogation. It didn't take long for Velvet to catch on either. "It's alright Applejack. Celestia had to face facts; everything that happened and everything that was going to happen was brought on by herself, Shining Armor and the Mane 5. The Changelings roared in unison, their thirst for blood amplified beyond comprehension. I have a job for them.". Obviously, Twilight would be irked at the presence of those who betrayed her and left her for dead, so Cadance knew that somehow she would have to explain things in such a way that Twilight's anger would subside, and she would listen. Just then, Spike stepped down the stairs. I don't know how, but I just do. Together they moved out of the brush, making their way southeast toward the Everfree. ", "Just a few scars" Replied Chrysalis. Twilight was clearly still in anguish and self-pity. Growled the commandant in annoyance. "Princess Cadance, I'm here to see Twilight. Thinking quickly, Chrysalis turned to her Changelings to rally them. Asked Luna curiously. Bowing to his queen, Blade departed the hall, leaving Snake Bite alone with Chrysalis. I understand why you are upset.". Just thinking about her down in the caves, cold, heartbroken, alone and dying while they were all caught up in the happiness of the false wedding and then Chrysalis taking over and her army wreaking havoc across Equestria, especially Ponyville, without their best friend to help stop their greatest enemy brought tears of shame to her eyes. Cadance arrived at Golden Oaks Library, the dark purple shield still encasing it. Chrysalis had her enemies right where she wanted them, and it was all thanks to Twilight that this was possible.
