Fluttershy was having the worst day ever. It was her birthday and not one pony had wished her a happy birthday. Not even her animals remembered. That was it, if no pony even knew she existed, including her animal, she was just going to leave. All she had left to do was go get her book from Twilight. Once that was taken care of, she was going to move to Cloudsdale and just hibernate in a home. The castle was in sight and she was just ready to get it over with. As she approached the door, she heard whispers inside.
"Oh no! not her! Any-pony but her!"
"Shut up, let me handle this, I can get rid of her."
At that moment, Rainbow Dash came out of through the door.
"Hey Flutters!" She said, "What-ch-ya need?"
"Oh," Fluttershy said, "Not much. I need to get a book that Twilight borrowed from me. So I'll just be a minute."
"Well hold on, no need to go in there when I can just go in there and get it speedy quick! I can get that for you in a jiffy!" Rainbow said rushing into the house. She soon came back with the book and something else. "Hey, Twilight said that she also forgot to repay you for helping with Pea Wea and Owlicioucus. She gave me some bits to give you, how much do you need?"
"Something around five hundred bits. I had to replace fourteen saddlebags thanks to Pea Wea."
"Alright, let me see... alright, here you go!"
"Thanks Rainbow, I owe you one. Oh, and tell Twilight that I said hello and thanks."
"Oh, don't worry, I will. See you flutters!"
"Bye Rainbow!"
As I left the front door, I heard the voices again.
"Rainbow, that was too close! I thought we'd never get rid of her!"
"Chill out, we both know that we don't want her here right now!"
I couldn't take it anymore. I ran all the way home, grabbed my saddle bag, and started for Cloudsdale. Who needs them? I can do fine on my own! I thought, tears running through my eyes. When I made it to Cloudsdale, I saw nothing but crowded sky. I did my best to maneuver my way through the crowded sky but go nowhere fast. So I just flew above them. When I finally managed to get out where I could see, I made my way to where the relator said my small little home would be. When I reached the home, I realized that when the relator said small, he meant small. There were two bedrooms, one bathroom, and the kitchen and dinning room combined.
"Well. I guess it shall do for know. The only problem is I don't have enough furniture. Well, lets do the best we can."
"Alright, so that's the baloons, the food, the drinks, the games, the decorations, the cake, and the gifts. Anything else that we are going to need, Pinkie?" The rainbow mare called.
"Yes, the guests silly! That and someone to go get the special guest." The pink mare called back.
"Ok, get someone get the guests and you find someone to go get Flutters."
"Okie dokie lo- PINKIE SENSE!" The pink mare exclaimed.
"Pinkie sense?! What's it about?" A lavender mare exclaimed.
"Let me concentrate Twilight! Let's see... pegasis... yellow... pink mane... leaving... wont see again... WONT SEE AGAIN?!"
"PINKIE!" The rainbow mare yelled, "Concentrate!"
"How can i when I know that i wont be able to see some-pony again?!"
"Pinkie!"
"Fine, fine... wont see again... today.... whew! ... wrong date? What in the name of Celestia is that all about?"
"Is that it pinkie?" The lavender mare asked.
"Yep! It's a yellow pegasis mare with a pink mane, she's leaving and we wont see again today and something about having a wrong date."
"Yellow mare with a pink mane, who could that be-" The lavender mare said before she was cut off.
"Fluttershy!" The rainbow mare interrupted, "It has to be Fluttershy! And since we avoided her, she left. We have to find her!" The rainbow mare said on the verge of tears.
"Rainbow, I don't know if we can," The lavender mare said, "She could have left hours ago!"
"Shouldn't we still try?"
"Fine, let's go."
"Fluttershy!" The rainbow mare yelled after busting through the window.
"Rainbow Dash! We have a door for a reason!" The lavender mare yelled, not getting a response.
As the ponies searched for Fluttershy, none of them even thought to go look in another city.
"Duh, guys! Did no-pony pay attention when I said leaving town!" The pink mare called, "Any-pony? Oh well. Off to Cloudsdale!"
Takes place Day after First chapter
Sombra was tired of walking, they had been walking for miles and his brain said were not even close to where they needed to go.
"Chrysalis," He wined, "my hooves hurt, how much more is there we have to go? And why in the name of Celestia did we not just teleport?!"
"Hush, Fool!" Chrysalis snapped, "We are close, and if we teleported it would cause many problems with our plan. You still want to rule the Crystal Empire don't you?"
"Yes," Sombra sighed, "but where are we going? Can't you tell me that? I mean, if we're going to get the big guy, we will need to find our how to get him out! Have you even thought of that?"
Chrysalis was silent, Sombra was a little too curious for his own good.
"Chrissie?" he asked, "You ok?"
"Yes," she replied, "I had not even thought of that, how could we get him out? We can't use the changelings, your magic doesn't work here, I'm clueless......."
"Well," Sombra said, "I don't know how you knew my magic doesn't work here, but we can still find a way. Just try to think, 'I will be the Queen of The changelings and Equestria!!' Think of the power!!"
Chrysalis thought about it for a bit as they walked on,
"Queen," she said out loud, "I will still be queen, but with even more power!!! Equestria has more than enough love to supply the changelings for thousands of generations!!! Yes, we have to find a way to get him out!!! It is imperiti....... wait, remember that spell Starswirll taught us? The invisibility spell! I remember how to cast it to!!! Oh, Sombra! do you think it will work?"
"I don't know," Sombra replied, "but it's still worth a shot, hey, is that the place we need to go?" Indeed it was, it was a dark gloomy place with three small mountains, they looked like to sticks taped to a cup. Unfortunately, there was a Cerberus guarding the way to them.
"Chrysalis," Sombra whispered, "You might want to cast that spell now!"
"Sombra!" Chrysalis snapped, "Hush, I will cast it but you must not say a word, is that understood?"
"yes"
"Alright, here we go" She flared her horn and in ten seconds....
"Chrissie, It didn't work, I can still see you"
"Sombra, that is part of the spell, because we are both invisible, we can see each other."
They crept towards the Cerberus slowly, it was a hideous with its three heads. When they were next to it, Sombra was worried, would it wake up, would it notice us, it didn't. Sombra was relieved; he wiped some sweat from his forehead and when he looked up, he saw a cage sitting on the middle pedestal. None of the others had a cage, they didn't even have chains; that had to be the one.
"Chrissie!" he whispered, "I found him, he's in the middle pedestal!" They both rushed up there and Sombra was right, he was in the cage.
Chrysalis cast the invisibility spell on him and he gasped when he saw them, Chrysalis had to shush him so that he would not give them away.
"What are you two doing here?" he cried, "You are the last ones I would have thought I would see!"
"Thanks Tirek," Sombra said, "That's a nice thank you, Chrissie, you bout done over there?"
"Yep, Tirek, walk to Sombra"
"But I'll hit the bars!!"
"No you won't, I cast a spell on the cage, you can walk right through it" Tirek tried and it worked, he gasped and smiled,
"Finally I'm out of the cage!!"
"Now," Chrysalis said, "You can help us take over Equestria and The Chrystal Empire!"
"How," Tirek said, "I have no power!"
"But I have changelings, there is enough love that they could feed of that after we win that they could just feast themselves back to health."
"It just might work, only if you teleport us!"
"Yea Chrissie! Please?"
"FINE!!" with a flash of her horn, they were back at the hive. "I reversed the invisibility spell, the changelings can see us now. HASHTAG!!! Come here!!"
"Yes your highness?"
"Bring me company B." "Your majesty, they are the most experienced changelings we have!"
"I know that!!! Tirek, Twilight has a castle that has the power of the Elements of harmony, you must destroy it! Sombra, after I get Shining Armor and Cadence to Equestria, you start at the Chrystal Empire! You will take Company C with you, that should help you. Now, Tirek, feast and we shall commence battle"
