Hex liked this change. She was warm, for a change. She was full, for a change. She was happy for a change. Changelings weren't supposed to be happy.

Hex keeps telling herself that the life of a pony isn't for her, that it goes against her nature, that the Queen would think badly of her. But she didn't really care. She had Fluttershy, and the Elements of Harmony themselves by her side. They would defend her from this new and confusing world. Or at least, she thought so.

Betrayal hurts.

Changelings weren't supposed to hurt.

Changelings weren't supposed to feel at all.
