The Future

Princess Twilight Sparkle looked out her window and watched her six friends chat away about something she couldn't hear. She wondered what they were talking about when the door to the Golden Oaks Library opened and something came running in. As the running got closer to Twilight, she got a lamp ready to knock out the intruder. The door opened to her bedroom, a purple adult size dragon with green spikes running from his head to the tip of his spade tail. It was Spike, and he was panting from running a long distance to get to her. Spike looked up and saw a lamp hovering above him, he pointed a claw up above his head. Twilight dropped the lamp down at the drakes feet, and asked, "Spike what's the matter?"

Before Spike could reply, he belched out a rolled up scroll with the royal seal from Princess Celestia. He held the scroll in his claw and handed it to Twilight. Twilight levitated the scroll out of the drake's claw, unrolled the parchment, and began to read the message from her mentor.

My faithful student and Princess Twilight,

I'm sorry to inform you of this late, but your friends the other elements and you have to come to the castle. I need to perform a new spell that you might not agree on but I have no choice but to wipe your and your friends's memory, since you're an alicorn now and you're friends won't live as long as you do. I'm sorry my new princess but I'm ask you to bring your friends and yourself in for memory loss. I hope you make the right decision Twilight.

Your mentor and Princess of the Sun,

Princess Celestia

Twilight dropped the scroll from her magic grip and looked down at the floor of her bedroom. A million thoughts ran through her head. Wiping my memory. My friends memories too. What could? No she would never do that would she? No not this time. I'm going to do whatever it takes to save my friends and myself from this. With new found determination in her eyes, Twilight levitated a quill, a ink jar, and a piece of paper, and she began to write her letter back to her mentor. She then looked over at Spike who was reading the scroll, Spike's eyes widen what he just read and asked, "Twilight are you going to really take us all to Canterlot to get our memories erased?"

Twilight sighed, she knew she couldn't lie to her assistant, so she replied, "No Spike. I need you to go get the others and bring them here at once. This is something they probably don't want to hear."

"Okay Twilight. I go get them."

"Thanks Spike my number one assistant."

Spike then ran out of Twilight's room, running out of the library, and ran towards Carousel Boutique. Twilight resumed her focus on her letter and began to write back.

Dear Princess Celestia,

I'm sorry but I'm going to make a run for it with my friends and never coming to Canterlot to get our memories erased. I'm sorry but I don't care if my friends die before I do. The bonds we made through thick, and thin we made them together. This is my decision and my alone. This is my last letter to you. Where we will go? I'm not sure, but I'm hoping you don't find us and never capture us for any reason. I'm sorry princess.

Your faithful student and new Princess,

Twilight Sparkle

Twilight folded up the scroll, and placed a seal of her own and with a flick of her magic the rolled up scroll disappeared. Twilight then began to pack the things she might need, a few books, blankets, pillows, gems for Spike to eat, and a picture frame with a photo graph of Twilight and her friends surrounding her mentor with smiles plastered on their faces. Twilight felt a tear escape her eye when she heard the main library door open. Twilight levitated her luggage in front of her, closing her bedroom door gently behind her, and walked down the stairs to inform her friends.

=====================

At Canterlot Castle

Princess Celestia sat in her throne looking at pictures of a certain queen, when a letter appeared in front of her. She unraveled the scroll and began to read it to herself. Celestia had a confused expression written on her face, as she descended from the throne, she lit up her horn until it was covered in a bright yellow, and she teleported to her bedroom. As she was outside the bedroom doors, she gently knocked on the door. She heard a sing song voice say from the inside, "Cooome in."

Celestia opened the door to her bedroom, she closed the door behind her, and once Celestia was inside her room, she saw the creature wearing a custom uniform. She wore a little white head dress on top of her head also there was a black crown. Her long dark blue mane and tail were very long and had a few holes, holes were all around her front and back hooves, her bright green eyes shined in a dark lit room at night, her pupils were dilated, her wings were in her sides, her flank was nice thin and curvy. She had no cutie mark on her, and instead of teeth, she had fangs. It was Chrysalis, the Queen of Changelings, and she was smiling at Celestia.

"Celly what brings you here on this fine lovely day?" Chrysalis asked, happily. She trotted up towards Celestia and nuzzled her affectionately.

"I came here to ask you a question Chrysy." Celestia said, nuzzling the changeling back.

"Well what do you want to ask me?"

"Did you tell my faithful student that I was going to erase her and her friend's memories?"

"Yes I did."

"Why would you do that?"

"All for the sake of laughing joke."

"Well this joke of yours made my student decide to leave and never return to Ponyville or Canterlot."
