As princess Twilight was busy reorganizing the royal archives she wonders what her friends are up to ,because she was given her own duty's and her own room in the palace. "SPIKE!" She hollered and was answered back by a small baby dragon.
"Yes Twilight?" Asked the exasperated baby dragon. Today Twilight was more egdy than normal. "Do you know where the scroll for Starswirl the Bearded's spell of illusions is?" she asked
"Um...let me look." And with that he dug around the mountain of scrolls until he pulled a scroll twice the size of his body "Here you go twi." and with that she ripped it out of his claws.
"AH! Thank you spike." replied Twilight as spike muffled your welcome arouse from where his face was having a make out session with the floor. "Can we take a break twilight I'm kinda hungry." asked her number one assistant.
"Guh...fine I guess we can have a lunch break." and with that they left to the dining room for a meal.
*BANG BANG BANG*
'Fire ,duck ,reload ,evade.' where the thoughts of Foxtrot 813 as he downed another couple of strange specters.
as he moved through the nightmare realm his commanders mother created he felt no fear nor any aprehension to what's going on around him. He just followed his commands like he was programmed and purpased to do. "Hello again." said a voice he new all too well. He spun on his heels and snap to a salute.
"SIR!" He replied. He was met with the face of Paxton fettle and... Alma Wade?
"We do not have much time my brother has accidently set something in motion he can't stop. You being my only escape means I have a risk of loosing you in this ,and I can't take that chance. So I will be sending you somewhere safe my mother suggested this place but when I asked her why I was meet with silence. It is because of this I asked her to give you some temporary gifts of hers to keep your well being secure." as he continued all Foxtrot 813 could do was listen and obey.
"So your orders are to make sure you keep yourself safe and protected at all times am I understood?" He questioned
"Affirmative!" was Foxtrot 813's response and everything turned white.
As the clattering of dishes is heard four princesses are seated plus two princes and a dragon. Each plate is consumed and replaced with a new full clean one. "So Twily how's it been since your coronation?" asked prince Shining armor.
"Well... I kinda miss my friends so I really wish I could've gone back to the library." Informed his sister.
With that the rest of dinner was carried out in silence. As everyone was preparing to leave and started to say good-bye to one another the room started to shake. At first it was quite small until it erupted into a full out quake and tossed everyone from servant to the princess around until a black cloud started to appear. At first everyone believed it to be some pot mix escaping the pots ,but it started to condense into a tall mass the size of Celestia and like out of some paranormal movie everything stoped shaking as the cloud exploded leaving a figure there staring at them and vice versa. All the sudden the head and torso droped like a bad sci-fi robot ,and the ponies just stared at it until the question on all there minds was voice.
"What just happened?" Asked Shining Armor.
"We do not no prince Shining Armor." replied Luna
"Goodness me what manner of beast is that any ways?" Came a obnoxius voice.
"I don't know BlueBlood but we must find out what it want." With that Celestia turned to the figure.
"Excuse me creature?...Um hello?" Not gaining a answer was what drew the final straw for princess Luna as she jumped up and knocked it over shouting.
"Respond to us thy cretin!!" But still all it did was remained spralled out.
"Excuse me maybe it was just tired and is uncouncius we could place it in the dungeon and wait for it to wake up." suggested Twilight.
"Great idea Twily I will get some stallions to do that." and so he did.
It has been a month since the creatures arrival and it still hasen't awoken when all tests that were run on it came up with a perfect health. Now we join the royal family in a private meeting room as they are discussing what to do with the creature until a stallion with a lab coat busts in.
"PRINCESS I FOUND IT OUT!!" He yells.
"What found what out?" asks Celestia with confusion on her face.
"What if it is the same mind of a changeling?" he asks
"Wait what!?" Asked a dumbfounded Twilight. with doubt on her face.
"It has the health system mind heart everything so why wont it do something?" The stallion queries again.
" I don't know why?" A response came from the confused Princess luna.
"EXACTLY what if it is only capable of thinking as a changeling with its queen." He offered them.
"Meaning what exactly?" The princess of love askes catiously.
"We may need a changeling to wake it up" He dead pans. To them this was what got them all on the same page.
"WHAT!?!?!?" Shouted everyone at once especially the couple of love.
"I know ... I know this is such a large request but I don't think any of you know any mental synapsis like a changeling queen do you?" He questioned.
"Well w-or I think-no never mind." Said Cadence
"Well I guess ya'll are going to have to give HER a call bye!" He finished in a sing-song voice and left.
"Oh no." said everyone as they turned and stared at the nervous couple of love.
As everyone stood done on the entrance to the Canterlot palace Shining armor asked the question on his and his wife's mind. "Why exactly do we need her here?"
"Because she is the only hive leader we know of so far." Replied celestia
"Well I'm not so sure about this can we at least gather the rest of the Elements of harmony?" asked princess Cadence
"Oh yes can we?" Twilight was giddy at the idea of seeing her friends again.
"That is highly advisable go Twilight and inform them there needed." ordered the princess.
So they waited and waited for a good long while eventual shining threw a tantrum about changelings being late. After a small calming talk with his wife a black evil looking carriage came into view in the distance. The carriage had spike and holes in it as well as being drawn by black pony-like creatures with glowing blue eyes with no pupils making most wonder how they saw were they were going. They had hole in there hooves and a crved horn looking to be a weapon just itself unlike a unicorn. The appear to have purple bands wrapping around there stomach to there back which possessed some form of armor shielding them from general attacks from above. Many shied away from them when there fangs and insect like wings could be seen. When this small details could be seen Shining armor looked around nervous as if he were wondering if he brought enough guards. When the carriage pulled to a stop one of the insectoid ponies unharnessed himself and moved to open the carriage door.
When the carriage door was opened a black creature like the ones drawing the carriage step out. Except this one was taller and more lean than the others. It had green serpent like eyes. It had a long jagged horn and it was sporting a black crown with blue orbs on top. Like the others it had a hard shell and band ,but instead of the purple tint like the others this one had a eerie green to it.
"Hello again Celestia." Said the creature.
"Chrysalis." was all that Celestia said.
"Oh come now I do believe that we could come to an understanding when I say this...What would you do if all of your subjects were starving and di-" But alas that is how far she got with her question until a certain prince interrupted her.
"You have no right to ask her that question you low down no good excuse for a parasite." sneered Shining armor and all he got was a shrug of the shoulders from chrysalis
"now can we go and see exactly why you have summoned me here." With that they were off to the dungeon in a long awkward silence.
Upon arriving arriving to the cell they couldn't see a thing in the dark. Then all the torches on the walls alight at ounce as there was a gasp at what someone saw. chrysalis stood there gawking at the sight before her. A figure that was eye level with her and that was while his head was dipped low in a state of unconsciousness. She walked closer for a better look and she scanned it with her magic. Only to be surprised when the scan showed a compeletly healthy body but at the same time empty...much like a changeling cut off from the hive. Then it dawned on her what they wanted her to do. It wasn't too tasking but at the same time it would be a hassle to connect to such a complex psychosis.
"Very well then Celestia I will see what I can do." and with that she layed down and a erie glow flowed off her horn. So they sat edging closer and closer as the hours passed then-BAM!!
"All right where is the creature at ill show him what happens when you mess with my friends!" came a tomboyish voice.
"Honestly Rainbow Dash couldn't you have been a bit more tactful smashing in her all willy nilly and disrupting what they were doing?" came a elegant british voice.
"Well excuse me for mak-" "GIRLS!!" twilight charged in and gave them all a group hug.
"So Twi what is exactly going on here?" asked Applejack. An with that Twilight quickly began to explain to the rest of the mane 6 what has occurred.
"So this big guy here appeared out of no where and just drop dead?" Asked rainbow Dash as she went to stand next to the creature.
"Rainbow dash don't get to close." said Twilight with a slight bit of urgency in her voice.
"You know what nowIneedtoprepareawelcometoEquestriamisterbigtallandintimidatingalien!" with that pinkie pie was off to prepare welcome party.
"Think what you must girls I am coming to terms with that dramatic outfit especially the helmet it adds so mush mystery to his character. The amber looks to stand out ,and that armor's material I have never felt anything quite like it I simply must find out what it is." Rarity announced as she felt the vest.
All of the sudden it jumped like hit with an electric charge making some around get in a defensive stance and others to yelp only for it to sag again. Then nearly everyone noticed chrysalis look as if she were struggling much like she were to be physically lifting a ton.
"This is more difficult than I originally believed it's like he was made like a changeling soldier. To but for a more complex mind to control I ca-" She froze and soon screamed and like a automaton from the future it shot up and held its weapon to its chest as some of his suit began to glow amber. Many guards believed the scream to be a war cry and went to attack only for half of there forces to lose the upper part of there body in blood and gore and the other half to start close quarters combat with the creature only to be beaten down by a blur of lethal blows. As the others tried to step back chrysalis calmed down and looked at what had unfold. She frowned and felt a second presence in her mind asking what to do. The she realized the creature was awaiting an order. So like a changeling she ordered it on standby and it returned to its previous position.
"What the buck was that!" Shining yelled at Chrysalis.
"Like a child anything depending on another to keep it conscious it would feel a sense to protect what is keeping it alive so I guess when it saw the guards coming to attack me it must've just...reacted." She stated
"Chrysalis what is it doing now?" asked celestia.
Meanwhile with the mane 6 in a corner.
"I can't believe it..." Twilight said mor to herself than anyone around her. Twilight was shell shocked 'I't took out Twelve gaurds in the beat of an eye. Those where Equestria's finest!"
Fluttershy was wailing on the ground with threat of passing out soon. While applejack was pale in the face due to a phobia of seeing blood. Rarity fainted do to shock and seeing so much violence. Pinkie couldn't have a reaction do to her absence ,but Rainbow Dash was pale all over a look of horror over her face as she thought ' I was going to charge him...I would have ended up like those guards if I hadn't noticed the bodies fast enough."
"Well is there anything that we can do now? I will let the family's know but we have to find out more information first." stated Celestia.
"Hmm... Creature answer all questions and follow the princess of the sun's orders and move psychosis link to her." Chrysalis ordered then something they were not expecting happened.
"Yes ma'am!" they couldn't believe it spoke equestrian and followed her orders. suddenly celestia felt something in her head at first she thought it was discord showing up finally rooting around to find out what had happened. The she heard the creatures voice in the back of her head 'Ma'am!'. With that chrysalis left to her hive.
"creature what is your species and name you also have to answer to all of us understood?" Celestia asked.
"Yes ma'am." the creature replied.
"So what is your name?"
"...Can you please revise the question commander." said the creature
"Wha-" began Celestia but then Shining questioned.
"Soldier what is your rank and designation." ordered shining armor. Celestia was about to retort when.
"Seargent Foxtrot 813, F platoon of the first Replica battalion." Foxtrot 813 responded.
"......Fox-what?!"
