Chapters The Filly & The Changeling
A Good Friend
She ran as fast as she could towards the Elements of Harmony but no matter how fast she galloped there was always another one of them standing in front of her blocking her way. Eventually she was overwhelmed by the sheer number of changelings surrounding her, beating her into unconsciousness...
She made sure not to disturb Alicia as she slowly got up onto her hooves and looked around for food, if her growling stomach was any indication it was probably near lunchtime by now. Twilight looked at Alecia sleeping peacefully on the damp grass. The campfire had burned itself out and all that remained were ashes. Probably what i'm going to be if i don't get us some food...i wonder what changelings eat, Twilight thought to herself as she walked away from the campsite in search of food.
Alecia woke up with a headache and the already familiar but annoying pain in her back. At least it didn't seem to be bothering her that much anymore but it could be her sense of pain diminishing after breaking her back. As usual when she tried to get up, she felt the pain in her back increase exponentially causing her to wince in pain and fall back to the ground.

*:As tho she could actually go anywhere amirite?
The Filly & The Changeling
It's been 4 months since Twilight and Alicia's first encounter. Since that day the two have been growing closer while keeping to the same regime every day: Wake up, find food, eat, bond and sleep. The two never ran out of things to discuss or share. Everyday, the pain in Alecia's back would lessen until it was gone completely after the second month and a half although she could only carry light loads until it recovered fully. Eventually they both agreed to build a permanent shelter to protect themselves from the dangerous and unpredictable environment of the forest.

P.S sorry this chapter is short... am on a rush to get to the airport don't worry i'll update overseas too! :P CIAO (for now)
The Filly & The Changeling
Twilight was out in the forest collecting wood for Alecia to make the swing that she said she was going to build. Twilight trusted whatever Alecia said from how the world works to relationships and the anatomy of changelings. By now Twilight could easily name any part of the changeling body with ease where even a seasoned professor would fail to notice the subtle organs hidden in the body, mostly because Twilight had a personal live model at home.
As Twilight began collecting the wood she saw that met her criteria, she heard a loud rustling in the bushes behind her. Twilight quickly snapped her head around determined to find the source of the noise. As she did so, she felt a blinding pain in her head as darkness quickly took her.
"Twi...Twily.." said an unrecognisable voice
As soon as Twilight couldn't hear the stallion's hoofsteps she began to weep freely constantly saying "Liloo" over and over again until she fell back into unconsciousness.
Shining Armour sighed sadly as he approached the purple dragon infront of him.

The Filly & The Changeling
A Conversation In The Night
Alecia opened the door wary as to who would actually be knocking on the door at this hour. The pony who was infront of her gave her the largest fright in her life Standing in front of the door was one Princess Celestia decked out fully in all her glorious royal regalness.
"Sorry Celestia but i have to relieve your prisoner from you," said the pony standing above her as she used her hoof to render Celestia unconscious.
Somewhere far away from the burning house, a lavender unicorn woke up looking for her sister.
The Filly & The Changeling
4 days into the future, Twilight Sparkle was truly alone for the first time ever since she met Alecia, she didn't know any of the ponies that ever came to visit her and she didn't feel like making friends with them not until she saw Alecia again.
"I'm worried and waiting for you to find me too Liloo" mumbled Twilight crying herself to sleep once again.
"Is she better? did she recognise you?" asked Spike
"I hope so too Spike i hope so too..." Cadance agreed.
Alecia woke up in a dark and damp room. with a splitting headache and multiple pains in various parts of her body however the most pain came from her back which seemed to have been broken...again. She was lucky the first time that her back didn't paralyse her for life. Now... only time would tell.
Twily i won't ever forget the happiness you brought into my life... Thank you, without you i would have died a long time ago in a dark forest...alone.
Somewhere a few miles away, a lavender filly unicorn attempted an escape from a Crystal Empire.

Hey guys go check back on chapter 6 made some edits from suggestions by you guys hope you like it better.
P.S whoever you guys think brought Alecia to the hive you are severely wrong :] keep guessing tho i like to read the comments
Yeah as you guys probably noticed the chapters are getting shorter and shorter but that also means more in one day so hang on while i write out the next chapter.
The Filly & The Changeling
Twilight Sparkle woke up at 1am in the morning just as planned, she kept some of the utensils that she stole when her meals were given to her. She was determined to see Alecia back at their home. She must be worried sick, Twilight thought, just like i was. So using the fork as a lever, she managed to pry open the window of her room and looked out at the city beneath her. It was beautiful especially in the night when the moonlight reflected off the crystals. Normally Twilight would appreciate the scenery but she had a plan and nothing was going to stop it from succeeding, nothing.Crash ! the piece of stone smashed against the entrance of the castle, no doubt somepony would be investigating the noise which meant that Twilight had even less time to escape.
After what seemed like forever, the door started to give and broke off its lock. Deciding that it would be a waste, twilight kept the crowbar with her while galloping onto what she hoped was freedom.
Shining Armour was woken by the sound of shouting and an explosion. Being a soldier, he was immediately alert to his surroundings. He walked out his room and asked a guard who was galloping at full speed what was going on.
"The left wing... that's where Twilight is! Go get a guard over there to check on her i need a full descriptions of the damage caused and i want troops on high alert if there's an intruder in the castle we can't let him or her get away!" Shining Armour ordered concerned that Twilight might have been foalnapped.
Twilight rushed down the stairs careful to stay in the shadows and minimise the noise emitted from her hooves. Whenever she thought she heard voices, she would quickly scout the area for a hiding spot and rush towards it. Once she even hid in an empty cardboard box with convenient eye holes which allowed Twilight to sneak past most of the guards.
After what seemed like hours of intense hide-n-seek, Twilight found the window that led to the backyard of the castle and she was on the ground floor meaning she wouldn't have to risk breaking anything. It seemed too good to be true but there it was and so she ran out the window and galloped at full speed into the forest infront of her, desperate to find her sister.
"Sir we could not find Twilight Sparkle sir we suspect that the intruder has foalnapped her!" announced the soldier

The Filly & The Changeling
Alecia's Decision
5 days after arriving at the hive, Alecia slowly recovered from her injuries. The healing slime helped in that regard though so in no time at all she was back in her old job with a new cabin.SO kind to me back when we were bunkmates," Alecia remarkedbusiness if you will soar thus giving me more luxuries and privileges than the common changeling. Oh did i mention the position i got in the queen's court? I'm now the queen's personal advisor i know right? what a shocker" replied Tom with a smirk
And with that, Alecia galloped out of her cabin and off into the sky just above the forest towards the nearest settlement which was the Crystal Empire
Shining Armour walked around the room searching for clues that would help them identify the intruder that came in the night before. He had been in the room all day and not once had he seen any hoofprints that belonged to the intruder.
He must be good, really good, thought Shining Armour, as he walked around the room for what felt like the millionth time. Then, he noticed something peculiar, there was a mark on the window but the only hoofprints were going out, meaning that the intruder never came into the room at all. He simply waited for the right moment and foalnapped Twilight when she got too close to the window ,Shining Armour reasoned seeing no other reasons as to how the intruder could have foalnapped Twilight, he sped off to inform the guard and his wife. Not noticing the figure that was entering the empire from the forest.
Alecia was entering the city in her favourite disguise which was a white pegasus with a brown mane. As she neared the empire, she awed at how beautiful it looked under the night sky. I must visit this place again under better circumstances she told herself. As she descended, she noticed that there were quite a few guards patrolling the city at this time of the night.
"Because i'm a Sparkle too," finished Shining Armour as he commanded his guards to take Alecia into the dungeons where they would interrogate her further.
Out in the forest, a little purple unicorn came across her old home burnt to ashes.

Am writing the next chapter don't worry! its coming soon!
The Filly & The Changeling
Twilight walked through the dense forest heading in the direction of what she hoped was the way back to her sister and home. As Twilight waled through the forest, she noticed that alot of the trees were badly scraped, perhaps whoever dragged her to the empire was rather clumsy and left quite a mark on the trees but that couldn't have been true. The stallion claiming to be her brother must have had the pegasus guards carry her on a chariot to the Crystal Empire.
Twilight finished the letter, tears soaking through the parchment. No, she told herself, i won't be happy without you Liloo, i'll never be happy without you. And with that, Twilight made her way back to the Crystal Empire as quickly as she could.
In the Crystal Empire courtroom, a female changeling was on her way to a court hearing.

The Filly & The Changeling
When Alecia woke up, she was slightly dizzy since she had just recovered from two massive injuries within a week. She tried to see where she was but it was too dark. So i'm in a dungeon...again Alecia thought to herself. She tried to recall the events that happened that brought her here but they only came in flashes as Alecia still wasn't that well in mind and body.
The guard snorted and cuffed Alecia before opening her cell and letting her out
"What were you doing in the empire changeling?" asked Shining Armour
"Guards take her back to the dungeons and moniter her and bring her to court tomorrow under charges of foalnapping," Shining Armour commanded as Alecia bowed her head and accepted her fate.
Shining Armour headed out of the room and towards his private room with his wife.hangelings ," Shining Armour said with a glimmer in his eyes
With that, Cadance left the room heading towards the dungeons
"Hey you, can i have a quill and parchment please? i want to write a letter before i go into court," Alecia asked nicely
Alecia had never felt more sad or alone in her entire life as she laid down thinking.
A few miles away from the Crystal Empire, a certain lavender unicorn gets a letter.

The Changeling and The Princess Of Love
Alecia looked up slowly as she heard a door being opened somewhere. the guard had fallen asleep long ago and had not heard the door opening.
"Y'know maybe i was wrong bout you changelings maybe you guys ain't that bad after all," said the guard as he closed the door.
A few miles away, Twilight Sparkle raced across the forest hoping to find Alecia before it was too late.

The Filly & The Changeling
Cadance stepped into the TARDIS and was in awe for the first time in a very long time.
P.S sorry you had to learn of your death this way. There was no other way i could have saved Equestria.
Your friend,
Author's Note
P.S to get your brain working the thing or pony that cadance banished was not a changeling :P
The Filly & The Changeling
Day 2change things? Remember how she reacted? She banished you to the moon for simply stating an idea, a pretty dumb idea but an idea nonetheless. And when she turned you back, remember how quickly she sought to appease you? to make you her loyal minion again until the end of time," lectured Discord, "and i am the embodiment of chaos or if you will change. I want to make this world different whether for better or for worse i don't really care, the thing is i am willing to make a few changes and help ponykind while making some changes that won't Celestia is the embodiment of order, of the consistency where the world is predictable and everything is boring. So i ask you which do you prefer? change or consistency?"
The Filly & The Changeling
Equestria #146
She decided to follow it and jumped into one of her many shortcuts to reach the area she knew the blue box was going to get to. Occasionally, she had to get out of the short-cut to confirm that the blue box was indeed travelling to where she thought it would be travelling to.
'Well that could have gone better,' said a brown stallion with an hourglass cutiemark as he coughed out the smoke from the blue boxher control now,'replied the Doctor grimly.'And i can't go back to save her...But i can get some help and i'm going to need yours too.'
'Okay,'responded Pinkie cheerfully.
Rarity was having a perfect day in Canterlot with her friends until the changelings came. Pinkie had stayed behind because she had to take care of the Cake's foals.
Author's Note
Yes guys Pinkie's POV is going to be the last one until the sequel but i can promise you that the end of her POV is going to be very,very interesting.
The Filly & The Changeling
When Pinkie stepped out of the TARDIS, she was greeted by a familiar sight. Although swarming with changelings, Canterlot was otherwise untouched.
'Yup!' replied Pinkie in excitement.
The two changelings standing guard at the castle entrance had a very odd day. First during the invasion a grey coloured pegasus with a golden mane flew towards them and asked for directions. As per orders, they went ahead and captured her but she did not even struggle when she was kidnapped she just kept saying 'are we going to a party?' over and over.
The changelings ignored him and brought him into the castle. not noticing the pink mare that was using balloons to float up towards the window that she needed to get to.
Pinkie jumped into the open window and landed in it without making any sound at all*. She quickly raced across the corridor checking every turn to make sure that there were no guards. She saw the changelings carrying the Doctor towards the throne room as planned although she had to stop herself from helping him escape right then and there.She knew the place by heart after visiting it so many times.
Author's Note
*It's Pinkie logic doesn't apply
The Filly & The Changeling
As the Doctor was dragged into the throne room he noticed a flash of pink and hoped that the changelings didn't see it or else it would mean the end of their plan which would have been disastrous for them and all of Equestria.
The Filly & The Changeling
Pinkie gave a quick glace around the dungeon as Celestia left it. It was completely empty except for a crack in the wall and the sound of dripping from the ceiling. She made her way to the crack which Celestia couldn't have noticed since she was quite exhausted. Pinkie gave the crack a quick tap with her hoof to make sure that the wall was indeed hollow before pulling a drill out of her mane and drilling the wall.
causing a distraction allowing pinkie to free her friends
Celestia was having an action-filled day. First while she was addressing her subjects in the throne room, an army of changelings slammed through the doors and tackled everypony to the ground, they weren't even bothering to disguise themselves as normal ponies which meant that either they had a plan or that they were extremely bold.
'Sorry have you two forgotten about me? because last i checked i was an intruder too,' the Doctor piped up catching the attention of Chrysalis and Celestia as the doors burst open again revealing 6 mares clad in regal jewelry.
Pinkie and the rest of the mane 6 had galloped as quickly as they could to the throne room and although there were many changelings blocking their way none could withstand the power of Pinkie's party cannon and the magic of friendship.
'Next stop the multiverse!' announced the Doctor with a smile as Pinkie closed the door of the TARDIS
Somewhere in another universe, a changeling in a time vortex with her younger purple sister felt sick.
The Filly & The Changeling
All the ponies in Equestria cheered in triumph as the changelings who managed to rule over if only briefly were expelled from the land of ponies and back to the depths of whatever hole they called home. Twilight Sparkle was one of the ponies who was rather close to the magical blast that shot the changelings out of the castle and as such, absorbed a large amount of the magical power that was seeping out of it.
As Twilight was being teleported, she cast another spell. This one would require consuming all of her magical reserves, it was an age spell.
To say that Alecia was having a bad day would be the understatement of the century. Not only was her promised meal short-lived but the magical blast that shot her across the land was so powerful that when she landed she heard multiple cracks running across her body before the darkness consumed her.
She must have misfired a teleportation spell to get away from the invasion Alecia thought to herself. "Seems like fate decided to be cruel to me today leaving me to die with my sworn enemy... " Alecia said before falling back into the consuming darkness again.
Twilight woke up with a stiff neck in an unfamiliar environment, she was unable to recall how she got there nor could she remember anything at all but how to speak and write. How odd ,she thought, i'm left here all alone with no memories. No she was not alone she told herself as she spotted a black scaly creature breathing in and out. It looks like me except larger and with scales and fangs instead of fur and teeth she said to herself. Maybe it can talk and tell me where i am and how i got here she thought.
Twilight prodded the seemingly sleeping body with her hooves while telling it to wake up all she received for her troubles was a grunt and some winces of pain. It must be hurt badly, Twilight thought, otherwise it wouldn't be groaning that much...or maybe i'm reading this wrong, maybe facial expressions are different for this creature. So Twilight continued to prod the creature with her hooves getting a wince or groan of pain everytime she did so.
"Quit...it" groaned Alecia in pain as she slowly got out of wonderland
The kid can't be all bad if she's willing to help Alecia thought, must be either dumb or really open-minded to help me after what just happened in Canterlot. Then Alecia let the familiar darkness engulf her being as she drifted back into unconsciousness.
Seems like you really can't judge a book by its cover, thought Twilight as she walked around trying to find suitable wood for a camp fire and some dam leaves to build a tent just like...someone taught her how to a long time ago, i mean she admitted she was omnivorous yet she didn't eat me even when she had the chance so i guess she's alright and we managed to have a pleasant conversation. A monster wouldn't have a nice conversation with ponies, she thought.
The Filly & The Changeling
A memory of Alecia's childhood
The permanent shelter was finally finished and they finally had a place to call home although they would expand it whenever they could, even if it was in the middle of a forest. Twilight and Alecia managed to fill the house to the brim with makeshift furniture and rooms to make the place seem more civilised. Many times previously there would be a dangerous and wild animal roaming the grounds and damaging the plants that Twilight had planted, thus prompting Alecia to build a fence surrounding the area. They even had a picnic table just outside of the house.
I wish i could remember the memories i had but its more important that i spend as much time as possible to make memories that can fill up the gaps in my head, thought Twilight, also Alecia hasn't really told me anything much about her past. So Twilight went off to find Alecia in the hopes of learning a thing or two from the changeling.
Alecia was busy creating storing light into one of the wooden sticks she made* when Twilight came bursting through the door of their house. Alecia was already quite used to the fact that Twilight loved to burst through doors dramatically the first few times she did so, Alecia thought the was an emergency but it was just Twilight's way of opening doors when she was really excited. Aecia simply placed the wooden stick gently on the table. Her back didn't hurt that much now but there was the occasional ache and cramps but otherwise it seemed fine.
"Well ok then along time ago back when i was a hatchling...
Alecia walked along the long and dark corridors careful not to make any noise as the corridors would magnify any noise emitted within its walls rather loudly. She descended slowly down the stairs as silently as possible. What she was about to do was rather risky considering the little compensation Alecia would get if the plan was executed perfectly although it would be a perfect way to get back at her. Alecia crept along the walls staying in the shadows so as not to be seen by the guards that were positioned right infront of the doors, what they didn't know was that there was a hidden passage into the room. Somehow, Alecia was not spotted as she entered the room. Those guards really needed to be fired if i can slip past them this easily, Alecia thought, There she saw her lying on the bed breathing in and out calmly not noticing the bucket her hoof was being placed into which was filled with slime and hot sauce covering her sheets. Alecia silently cast a spell that would create a really loud noise as soon as she left the room. And when she said loud, she meant loud as in the whole of Equestria probably heard it loud.
After the set-up was complete, Alecia sneaked out of the room and as soon as she was back in her tiny cabin did she activate the spell. .... Yeah i was laughing for i think 10 minutes straight or something similiar cos' my stomach really hurt when i was done laughing . Unfortunately for me, the others heard it as well (Alecia refers to her birth-mates as others) so i was brought into the room and soaked with slime and hot-sauce covered face with puffy red eyes was Queen Chrysalis. I was unable to stand the sight without laughing so i did. However the queen didn't share my enthusiasm and punished me severely. I still got the scars here from the beating she gave me" said Alecia, indicated to the outside area of her thighs which bore some cracked scales or chitin as Alecia called it, "totally worth it though"
It reminded her of when she first saw a severely injured changeling when she was back in the hive...
Alecia was flying around the hive, she always did love to fly with the feeling of nothing holding her back, she would fly whenever she could, as such she spent most of her break time flying around the hive. This time, she heard some wailing as she flew past a particular area of the hive, naturally as curious as she was she could not stop herself from investigating the source of the noise. When she neared the area from which the screaming came from, she spotted a silhouette gasping for air as she flew down to investigate. Standard procedure was to leave any changeling that was a burden or needed special assistance as the hive could not afford to waste its resources and this was a broken changeling. surely the standard procedure could be changed right? There was a tiny hospital in the hive but that was reserved for the queen and they simply would not treat anyone else in the hive. So Alecia had two choices, to kill him or to leave him and let him suffer. Alecia tried so very hard but she could not do it, tears started to flow from her eyes, yes she was a changeling but she was no murderer no matter how dire the circumstances yet if she left, she would be letting the changeling suffer longer.She wanted to relieve the changeling of his suffering but no matter how hard she tried to convince herself she knew that she would never do it. She would never take the life of someone or something directly.
And so Alecia did the only thing she knew how to do. She ran. She ran so far away... ...And to this day she was still running although from a different thing altogether, she was still running away. Away from her past.
Author's Note
*: Changelings can store magic and transfer them to inanimate objects allowing them to glow with their magical aura at least until the magical reserves are depleted
Don't worry the big change is coming soon give or take 5 more chapters that's when i'll slow down the character development and crank up the awesomeness, drama and stuff just gimme 5 or more chapters after this one :]
P.S I'm gonna write a brief story about how the rest of Equestria is coping what with twilght gone and all probably gonna be posted onto my blog since it doesn't have anything to do with the plot...for now :P
notes: changeling wants revenge and queen comes to visit...soon
The Filly & The Changeling
The next day, Alecia woke up ready to be escorted to the court in the castle. She was cuffed again and led out of the dungeon, the sudden light was blinding to Alecia. It took her at least 5 minutes for her eyes to adjust.
