Spike frowned. We'll let you in, but they are not allowed on this property!" Did you become Twilight's friends because you liked her and wanted to be best friends forever? They had to try again, but it was just a matter of how. Yelled a voice from outside the door. cried Velvet. Come." My sister needs me.". Despite being originally hesitant, Applejack quickly swallowed her sorrows and stepped up to the plate. As you know, we had received word of a threat against Canterlot, which turned out to be true and more effective than we believed. "Well, if you're lookin' at apologizing a third time, it better be pretty darn good! ", "Anytime darling. The Mane 5 were completely stuck for words. ", "Only the Royal Guard garrison ma'am. We're both aware of how badly her friends, Shining and Celestia emotionally damaged her, but how is it she was not taken by them? Night and Velvet leaned in close; whatever news he had was obviously bad. She was the Changeling Queen in disguise, and she was secretly preparing an invasion of Canterlot by her army. Just gimme a second." We do not need this to continue! Unlike you, I would never leave Twilight unless the circumstances demanded it, but you.you were all so caught up in the wedding that it became all that mattered to you! You're going to need it, because there are long and trying days ahead. When we betrayed you, the connection between us as the Elements of Harmony was critically damaged to the point where they could not be used. Twilight could have stopped the Changelings from wreaking havoc, but she was never given the chance! From the sound of the plan, this new operation would succeed where the previous attempt failed. Additionally, I have information you may want to hear.". Not to mention how foalish we had all been!". He knew he'd have to tell them everything that happened including their betrayal and the invasion that followed their naivety and ignorance to her. If you know of any of their movements, let me know immediately! All you cared about that whole day was playing with the wedding cake decorations! Barbarousis answered assuredly. Last time we merely harvested the love from the ponies and kept attacking. "How typical of your lot, Chrysalis" Chortled the lead Guard, Defiant Aegis. Grinning evilly, Chrysalis held little care for such a plight. "And any enemy that attacks us will have free reign to wreak havoc." He decided to give Blue Hue the directive to watch over war room operations while he was gone. Twilight is skeptical about her brother's wedding and Ash is worried about the threat on Canterlot. screamed Twilight Velvet from the kitchen. That is all.". As for Spike, he was very much pushed to his limits here. "The aim of the pegasi attacking the castle is to cut off the princesses from their guards and divert them somewhere we can corner them. If they are sufficient enough to keep us from entering the castle, then the operation may last longer than estimated. 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". I only hope we can all come up with an apology sincere enough to save Twilight from her grudge against us, all of us In the meantime, she was drinking a cup of hot cocoa, trying to drown her sorrows. "What's going on here!? Said Shining, who stepped aside to allow Luna to comfort her distraught sister. "We're waiting for Applejack and Princess Cadance. pleaded Shining in protest. "This shield spell contains traces of Twilight's anger, hence it's dark coloring" Said Cadance grimly. Remember, I'll be staying in Carousel Boutique while I'm here, so if you ever need me, I'm here for you. Asked Rarity worriedly. "So, what's the plan?". Eventually, Celestia got a hold of herself. To her surprise, it was the former who answered the door. See you.". It was a plan she was very much impressed with. Cookies Cadance called out, hoping to hear from either the lavender unicorn or the baby dragon. Speaking of the latter, Celestia was wondering, on a side note, where she was during the Changeling invasion. "Shut up Spark!" One would expect her to take it maturely. "Princess, I don't know about this. That was an impostor with evil intentions, yet you let her facade fool you, and I know you sister. Take care of yourself. "You see, I'm worried about the threat from the changelings." Although the changelings along with their queen, Chrysalis, had been defeated during the royal wedding, no one could be certain where they . Maugrim added jubilantly. ", "Be at ease, Lady Velvet. "Very well. On why did she have to be punished like this? But the past is the past. "That is true, but here's the thing Granny Smith." "She..she did what?" But from too many mistakes, there's no love, dancing or cake. "You see, while my sister did care for me, and while my subjects worshipped me in equal measure, Celestia was the only one between us who witnessed the ponies celebrating her day and singing her praises. "Without Twilight, the Elements become useless!". Replied Twilight, who headed back inside. From her perch on the wall next to the gravity lift, she was awaiting any intruders from the red team to cross the mound in the middle, as well as either up the river or across the mound to the left. Night and Velvet gently descended to the ground, their bodies embraced by Luna's inoculation spell. Chrysalis then stared into a green flame that burned at the side of her throne. "I'm shaking like a leaf. Knowing the Tartarus she went through, Luna felt that it would be wrong to leave them fall into the cold icy grip of darkness without so much as a hoof to pull them out. ", This made Cadance lower a brow in question. The Mane 5, with Cadance in tow, entered the main room of the library. Yelled out the conductor as the train whistled. Moments later, Princess Cadance, the bride, Twilight's former foalsitter and somepony with whom she was very close, appeared. Should we find somewhere to billet for the time being? Replied Shining, equally as sorrowful. Cried Rarity, who immediately galloped over to the aforementioned pegasus to make sure she was OK. "Are you alright?". Granny Smith slowly stood up, Applejack watching on as she did. She then smiled and clenched an eye as a red Spartan came into view on the river. They now recognize that they made a terrible mistake and they wish to make amends however possible.". How do I know? Shining was talking with one of his officers, Lieutenant Blue Hue, when a runner came up to him and handed him a letter. My proposal is to send emissaries to towns and villages in which they live, so that we might entice them to join our cause. "My magic torch has revealed to me that the leader of the Element Bearers, Twilight Sparkle, has returned to her home in Ponyville following a fallout with her friends, her brother and Princess Celestia, her mentor, feeling hurt and betrayed by all of the previously mentioned. At the same time, more dive bomber teams will hit the enemy's archers, attacking them from behind before entering the castle. ", "However, for as long as you remain bitter toward those responsible for her emotional trauma, then you will remain susceptible to corruption. "I'll go and get Twilight. Why hath you summoned me before you? ", "But that's the problem Princess." "Indeed we are Princess." "Aura is the energy which is generated from a pony's emotions. Whatever thunder Applejack was packing was quickly silenced. Meanwhile, Cadance and the Mane 5 had arrived at Golden Oaks Library, only to find the tall but humble treehouse shut up tight and covered by a large shield, which Cadance was quick to recognize as a spell cast by Twilight to keep out any unwelcome visitors, namely her former best friends. "The wedding's been called off", said Shining, trying to keep a straight face. That would mean telling his mother and father, Twilight Velvet and Night Light, of the events that had transpired since the rehearsal, and by the Creator, they would not take it well. I was only doing what I thought was right. She would reveal her true identity, before going horn-to-horn against Celestia. But then came the sound of snorting mixed with snoring. Please calm down! How?". He was walking up to the throne that Princess Celestia was seated upon. Total duration Twilight was your own sister, your own flesh and blood! Everything that happened.it's all stuck in my head and I can't get it out!". With a new school, town, and friends, it's an adventure waiting to . Glaring into it, the flame produced a vision of Twilight in her library, reading through the lumps of friendship reports she and her former best friends had written over the months. As the pink alicorn stepped inside, Twilight's heart melted at the sight of her face. Applebloom told me about it, y'all were attacked by the Changelings. She had come to make sure the lavender unicorn had a good morning, and it looked like she had. Trotting through the castle's long and myriad hallways, he finally came across Celestia's private study, guarded by two of his men. They were not impressed at all. Applejack could only look at her with a face that bore a very clear expression of horror. Replied Rarity, who was still consoling the broken and remorseful Applejack. While his stance remained unchanged, he was willing to lend an ear to Cadance's plea. With that, the girls bade each other farewell, before returning to their homes. The bubbles began to increase in brightness as the energy of the spell increased, the forms of both Velvet and Night becoming obscured by the brightening light. All of this was still cooking up a storm deep in the annals of her mind, and there was little she could do to forget about it. ", "Of course they do Twilight, that's why they're here. ", "Yeah Cadance, I'm fine. Only time would tell. "Twilight, it doesn't matter anymore. Pinkie Pie went back to Sugarcube Corner and her spirits were lifted by the Cakes and their children greeting her happily. A brief silence took hold as Celestia registered the news, before resuming her job. Unbeknownst to them, a Changeling disguised as a tanned yellow pegasus stallion, replete with a brown mane and tail had walked into town, and was quietly observing them. This actually isn't like her. "Instead of waiting outside the city to attack, our forces will infiltrate the city in disguise en masse, and blend in with the locals. "We weren't going to let Twilight be demoted back to Magic Kindergarten just like that! As you know, my job as the Princess of the Night is to watch over my subjects as they sleep, and ensure their dreams do not cause them distress or harm. She made a run for the front door, until a voice stopped her. After throwing the doors open and shut with her magic, the lavender unicorn threw herself on her bed, crying every fibre of her pain out of her. Now, he felt like the world's worst brother. I wasn't comfortable with leaving her, but I didn't want to be cast out of the wedding either! Something like this from her sister was unheard of. The battle was ferocious. However, I cannot cast it without your permission, which is why I am here. Rarity's expression remained unchanged, but she decided it was best she did not dwell on it. We already apologized for our mistakes! "I don't think there's much we can do Shining. They had spent the time chatting, while idly wondering where Applejack was. I have a job for them.". What matters is that we are sorry for what we did, and all we want now is for us to be friends again. You may proceed with the mission.". As she walked away, she heard the familiar sound of a shield spell being cast. Fer that, I will never forgive myself. In response, Dark Shroud, another of Chrysalis's officers, and one of the most experienced in her army stepped forth. She, too, looked no great shakes. "Shininghow could you? Spike's request was greeted with a smile, but Cadance wisely remembered Twilight might not be too pleased to see him. Trust me girls, I've known Twilight for a long, long time. With that, Shining bowed, before turning on a dime and motioning to his men to leave the sisters alone, returning to their stations as the throne room's ceremonial guards. I don't care how you do it, just get out of Ponyville, but only when we have Cadance. Cadance's face produced a frank expression. Snake Bite bowed without a word. The girls were leaving you..what could I have done? Tell me we didn't forsake innocent lives for a wedding". The Changelings bowed to greet their queen, before casting hard and menacing looks upon the line of prisoners that were marched inside. Something he couldn't quite put his claw on. Cadance figured that Twilight would only answer personally to her; anypony else fell under Spike's jurisdiction. The elderly Apple took a deep breath before she spoke. She glanced behind her to see Twilight's treehouse/library encased once more in a dark magenta coloured bubble. He couldnt bear to think of it any longer but he wanted to get it over with so they can quickly make amends to his own sister, the Element Bearer's best friend and Celestia's student they all scarred for life.Still, they had to know, so Shining knocked on the door and it opened to reveal his father Night Light. Unbeknownst to Shining, the Solar Princess was entering a nightmare. You may not be omnipotent, and on that matter, neither am I, but you of all ponies should know when something is wrong. But what was I supposed to do? We all chose that stupid bug over our best friend, that's how we repaid Twilight for all the fun times we've had together. It is I who should be remorseful and ashamed.". Said Cadance, her usual mirth waning when she saw how the girls had fared since the previous night. "Your Majesty, I wish to inform you of an attack on one of the settlements outside the city. Celestia could feel her gut twisting with guilt more and more. On the other hoof, I can imagine how glorious victory will be when we storm the gates of Canterlot, and it is all thanks to you that this is possible! I did not do it on purpose. "Twilight? Replied Luna. Twilight sobbed harder, the group watching on in stunned silence. "Shining, take four of your men and bring Luna to me. I have to go and find Twilight. As she did so, tears began flowing freely from her eyes. I think they have marinated long enough. They would act as a second echelon, coming in from behind to support the main force. With a deep sigh of resignation, Applejack prepared to bite the bullet. "No Rainbow!" I hope I'm not interrupting." ", "I just came to see how you were after yesterday. Taking a moment to sniffle again, Twilight laid down her sins before them. I'm begging you!". Unfortunately, it was too late. If you'd allow me, I will describe it to you in detail.". The pink alicorn could tell this shield was no ordinary shield spell. "What if I was wrong about the impostor? Shining's actions had badly damaged their honor, something the family had proudly carried and improved from generation to generation. She looked about ready to give up "But we were so close to getting her back! ", "First thing's first though, I should probably go check on Twilight, make sure she's OK. As for you girls, you should probably go home and get some sleep. said Shining. Before his eyes, it opened to reveal Twilight, who was packing her saddlebags. Cried Shining. Celestia clenched her eyes in pain. Instead, it was a case of "had". I wasn't going to let them go, so I chose to betray my best friend in favour of a bug. "Thank you Luna. They followed behind her, closing the doors as they left. He glanced up ever so slightly to look at her, but quickly looked back down too ashamed to look her in the eye. "Twilight, I'm here to say sorry for leaving you at the rehearsal. She was sobbing, just loud enough for the Mane 5 to look up one by one in surprise. As it stands, we have done enough already. However, despite her sureness Rainbow could not shake off the nagging of her conscience, which continued to question her loyalty towards Twilight. ", "I got called into a meetin' with Granny Smith and Big Mac. Despite being met with a series of gasps or long stares, she didn't care. How it got the seven key ponies ultimately responsible for Canterlot's safety to drop every responsibility they had to the safety of the city in order to spend their time preparing for something as trivial as a wedding. "Twilight please! The first gaze she cast was at Cadance, to whom she smiled. Velvet and Night looked at each other, shuffling anxiously as they did so, before deciding it was best if the former explained what happened. Celestia sighed in annoyance. "We won't leave you ever again.". Not the sort of difficult where Shining could not recall Night's exact words, but the sort of difficult where emotions and mentality were concerned. So, after checking to make sure Sweetie Belle was still sound asleep, and after spending roughly 15-20 minutes fixing up her mane and tail (and applying her make-up), Rarity left for Sugarcube Corner, but not before eating breakfast and leaving a little something for Sweetie Belle to eat herself. "Just who in the hay do you think you are Spike? It was my own darned pride that led me to abandon my loyalty. It was also revealed at the wedding that the impostor had put Captain Armor under a mind-control spell, with Twilight watching every second of it. The pink alicorn was hoping for a better outcome than the one which had transpired. A mlt rnyai - Edward szemszg fanfiction (A dialogue Carlisle/Esme: Selfish by baphne The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1 (original title) Don't worry Twilight fans Don't worry Twilight fans. The Mane 5 looked at each other glumly, before nodding to Cadance. Thus, she decided to take it upon herself to talk things out with them. "And that means our forces will be unstoppable!" However, she had to put that behind her, in order to stick to the task at hoof. Can you do that Fang? "It will not help Twilight if both Night and myself are turned to the dark side. That was it, there was nothing left to stand in her way. The rookie's comment was met with a slap to the head by his commandant. Twilight had just reunited with her brother, who also happened to be the groom. In fact, she looked about the same as Pinkie. "We appreciate your service. Surely one like yourself would have learned from their past mistakes. Shining Armor had left you. What you are about to hear is top secret, and absolutely nopony can know of it.". One moment he was the groom, deeply in love with his bride and super excited for their wedding day. Said Pinkie. ", "And I failed the Element of Honesty because when we wrote that friendship report, we were supposed to have learned an important lesson. Every second of her absence is killing me. "Shhh, it's OK sweetie. If she hadn't found the real Cadance, they could have both died down there, so in fact, me and the girls straight up betrayed Twilight and left her to die.". There were no villagers though. They are led by Cadance, the Princess of Love and their mission is to broker a renewed peace with Twilight. However, teams of my pegasi will dive bomb the Guards and engage them from behind, allowing our troops to move in and finish them off. Shining stopped dead in his tracks, the equivalent of a spear slamming into his heart. Just then, Cadance walked into the bakery. This had left them both hurt and furious, emotions which Luna knew full well would suppurate and fester within their souls. We pushed Twilight aside like she was nopony. The answer seemed glaringly obvious; Chrysalis had magicked Luna to sleep, before taking her back to her quarters to make it seem as if nothing had happened. "Rainbow!" Spike immediately shot Applejack a glare in hopes it would send shivers down her spine. Only Rarity found the courage to say anything, but even she knew it would be feeble. With an instant feeling of urgency coursing through her body, Luna was quick to acquiesce to Shining's orders. "Night Light! Her expression was calm, but serious. It was because of him that the most recent events of the day transpired, and it wasn't just any old day. "Changelings! ", "I like your thinking Snake." However, as enraging as that picture was, she was not here to condemn those responsible. "No Granny Smith. If your levels of bitterness increase, so too will the strength of the forces, to the point where the spell cannot protect you. He was just a boy.

The lieutenants of his army were made up of one of the three pony species, one for the Earth ponies, the pegasi and the unicorns. Shining Armor was sat down on his rump atop the altar/throne, crestfallen and wallowing in self-disgust. We have gone through much deliberation together, which led to the conclusion that because of the girl's collective incompetence, along with that of my husband-to-be and my aunt, Twilight would have very much gone to her death, followed by the ponies of Equestria. As soon as they got into formation, they broke into a canter, making haste for Luna's private quarters. Maugrim! Suddenly, the hall's doors opened to reveal Cadance, who had come bearing news for Celestia. "If it helps, none of us wanted Twilight to die. ", "I know Dad", sighed Shining. Cadance took a moment to consider Rarity's offer. He had no idea that Chrysalis had imprisoned her in the caves, or that her life was in danger, but now that he did, it was taking a bad toll on him. ", "Howdy girls, hello Princess. I may fall, but I will fight you to the bitter end, because that is the reason I am a Royal Guard! Stepping up on the pedestal, Shining braced himself as the personnel present in the room began to look up at him. How could they have no patience for their best friend the one time she was in the wrong, after all the times she helped them with their mistakes? But it was thanks to Twilight that I was able to "modernize", as the locals say. Dark. Both the senior Apples looked at Applejack sternly. It's not like that!" ", "There is blind loyalty, Rainbow, and then there is experience. A small part of the pink alicorn was disappointed about the lack of a hoofshake, but it was completely understandable. Her throne possessed the ability to channel the love from her prisoners into her body, giving her extra magic power and increased strength, a much needed boost considering the toll Cadance and Shining's spell took on her. ", "Funny you should mention that Fluttershy, because I didn't either." "That is a question I am tormented with every day ma'am." "Of course! "No, thank you. "Shining Armor, how could you be so unspeakably cruel to your own sister?! According to testimony from her friends, she told them that she saw the impostor embarrass and humiliate them without them even realizing it, something that my niece would never, ever do. "If you think I'm gonna surrender, you're dead wrong Chrysalis. Her mane was half-inflated, a sign of her misery, and her eyes had bags, an obvious indicator she did not sleep well. Nodding to their sergeant, the Changeling troops assumed their disguises, as did Icy Tone and Snake Bite. Lesson Zero was the first thing that came into their minds, a testament to the weight of their collective failure. "Do you understand now why Twilight is so upset girls? Added Pinkie. And in Twilight's case, alone, afraid, and very hurt?". Unfortunately for Luna, she would be proven right as the group approached the throne room. How were they able to come to Twilight's aid the first time, when they did not the second time? Sorry you had to see us in this state. Licenses, Support us "Proceed Commander." To Luna, that was both an outrage and a major injustice to the lavender unicorn, who had done so much for not only Equestria, but for them both. That was all it took for Celestia to collapse into Shining, sobbing in despair. Standing before Chrysalis was a tall and thick stone gate, which opened immediately to reveal an equally tall iron portcullis. One could even dare say the latter was no longer her favourite princess as well. It left a horrible panging feeling in her heart as once more, the magnitude of her and the girl's collective actions hit home. Meanwhile, Applejack had woken up from a deep slumber. But if there's anything wrong darling, just talk to me, alright?". Marching up to the doors, still wearing his ceremonial Mareish Guards dress, Shining motioned to four of the eight throne room guards standing before him. ", "I understand." Sorry I'm late. Shining dug deep before finally letting it roll off his tongue. something they needed to rectify, and fast. "She bewitched her Smartypants doll with a Want It Need It spell which made half of Ponyville, including Big Mac, Applebloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo rip each other apart trying to get it. Spike? ", "I have no doubt Twilight was gravely hurt by what her friends, her brother and Celestia did to her," Luna replied, "but what prevented the Nightmare Forces from corrupting her is that she had no bitter feelings towards them or desires of their destruction. ", "Gentlecolts, it pleases me immensely to announce the Element Bearers will be of no concern to our operation." ", "No problem Cadance." He didn't stay with Twilight not because he willingly chose to leave Twilight to wallow in her misery. She will be painted matte white and Celestia themed. What are we going to tell Twilight?" "You crash-landed, pretty hard too." "The poor mare must be a mess in there.". Rainbow cut in. Boomed Chrysalis, who fired an ice spell at Aegis, freezing him solid. Because of your foolishness, our dear Twilight will be lost. We must catch the train". "Your Majesty, may I present Snake Bite. ", "So you thought it was right to break the heart of "your most faithful student", betraying her trust in the process? "Anyway, shall we get onto discussing the plan?". Captain Armor disowned her, stripped her of her title as Best Mare and banned her from the wedding, her friends walked out on her, and I.I said she had a lot to think about.". "Princess, you are aware Twilight isn't exactly innocent of her crimes either?" Cadance asked inquisitively. Now, do me a favour and try not to cry while I'm spying on you.". Cadance arrived at Golden Oaks Library, the dark purple shield still encasing it. Twitter, MLP: Friendship is Magic - 2023 Hasbro Inc. Asked Granny Smith. Spike bowed his head, fearing whatever reaction he'd get from Twilight. She could feel her eyebrows and face contort into a mask of pure disappointment, even anger at her sister for doing such a thing, and she had no intention of relinquishing the emotions that were taking over at present.
