Chapter Four: Back Home
Previous ChapterNext ChapterBack in Canterlot, rumor that SaberStar Brightwing had ran off with Rainbow Dash and kidnapped Twilight, Vinyl and Applejack spread like wildfire. Now search parties were on the move. One who didn't believe these rumors was Fluttershy. She pulled out the gem he had given her before battle. She looked into its reflective surface, wanting to see where he was. What she saw startled her. Saber was in full war armor, his wings in attack mode, facing down a huge Changeling also in full battle armor. Saber had a calm look on his face, but his eyes and armor told it all. Seven other ponies were tied up. She recognized Twilight, Rainbow Dash, Applejack and Vinyl. The other two, she didn't know. He was clearly fighting for his friends. A king sat next to Chrysalis, watching the showoff, looking amused. The thing screeched and charged at him. The gem went blank. She put a hoof over her mouth. This wasn't good. He had been captured by the Changelings and so Twilight, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, and maybe even Vinyl. She needed to tell Rarity and Pinkie Pie. Fluttershy galloped towards the library. The two were looking for anyway to find Saber.
"Girls!" she cried, "I found something out!"
"What is it?" Pinkie asked in her high-pitched voice.
"I know where Saber is. Before he left for battle, he gave me a gem that showed where he was. It showed him in Changeling Empire, fighting a massive Changeling. Seven other ponies were tied up behind them. I saw Twilight, Rainbow Dash, Applejack and Vinyl, but they were all tied up. I didn't recognize the other two. But he's clearly trying his best to escape. But even worse, Chrysalis isn't their ruler. There is a king. Then the gem went blank. I couldn't see anything else." she explained,
"Does anypony know where the Changeling Empire is?" Rarity questioned.
"Mmmm, don't think so," Pinkie replied, "If so, we would've conquered it already." Fluttershy sighed.
"I guess he'll have to get out on his own." she said miserably. She walked away to her room. She opened the door and screamed.
