A Surprise for Twilight

Flash woke up to see the train pulling into Ponyville Train Station. "I'm here." Flash said. He couldn't wait to see Twilight. He got off the train, he looked around and saw a large treehouse. As Flash approached the house, he began to get nerves.

Flash's hole body shook as he knocked on the door. Twilight opened the door and gasped, she couldn't believe it, was it really Flash Sentry? "Um, um." Twilight stuttered in disbelieve. "Is...is that you, Flash?" Twilight asked.

"Yup." Flash said, he was very scared about what would happen. Twilight stepped to the side to let him in.

"I can't believe it's you Flash." Twilight said as she closed the door.

"I'm glad to see you again Twilight." Flash said. Twilight nodded, she smiled happy to see her "friend" again.

"Yes, I thought that you were a human." Twilight said looking at Flash.

Well, I am really a pony, but I left. I've been thinking about you since that night, so I just decided to come back." Flash explained. He  had really wanted to see Twilight again.

"Well do you want a place to stay Flash?" Twilight asked as she flipped through a book.

"Yeah, sure." Flash replied.

When it was 8:30, Flash decided to go to bed. "Where am I sleeping?" Flash asked.

Oh, it's right down here." Twilight said, using her magic to open the door to the basement.

"Thank-you Twilight." Flash said as he trotted over to the door. Flash stopped in front of Twilight. "Good night, Twilight." Flash said.

He gave Twilight a kiss on the cheek, and trotted down the stairs.

Twilight closed the door, and blushed. "Flash and Twilight, sitting in a tree, K-i-s-s-i-n-g." Twilight spun around to see Spike walking down the stairs.

"Oh, Spike." Twilight said, still blushing.

"Don't, oh, Spike me. I saw that." Spike said with a mischievous look on his face. "You like him." Spike continued.

Twilight looked at him with a, Shut-Up-Or-I-Will-Kill-You!look.

"Spike, don't you remember him?" Twilight asked.

"Yes. If I recall, you danced with him, after you fell head over hoofs for him." Spike answered. Twilight just rolled her eyes.

"You had better stick a claw in it, Spike, or I will wake you up tomorrow and make you re-orginize my books." Twilight said.

"Fine, fine." Spike said going up stairs, but before he reached the 2d floor, he started to yell, "Twilight likes Flash, Twilight likes Flash!" Twilight looked like she was ready to whoop his butt, when Spike got the idea and ran up stairs.

"Oh, look at the time, goodnight Twilight!" Spike yelled as he ran up the stairs.

Falling in Love

Flash woke up that morning felling rushed, he remembered that he went toward the portal and then in one day he found Twilight.

He was glad he found her though, and he hoped that Twilight would love him as he did her.

Flash trotted upstairs and looked around. He went upstairs and tried to find the alicorn mare, buy she wan't anywhere to be found.

He trotted back downstairs "Twilight, where are you?"

"She went out too get some more quills." A voice said behind him.

"Oh! Morning Spike." Flash said with a smile. "Thank you for letting me know."

"Any time." Spike said grabbing a broom.

Flash walked into the kitchen to get some breakfast. Looking in the refrigerator, he found some milk. He grabbed the milk and set it on the counter. Next he went to the pantry and got some whole grain cereal. Also grabbing a spoon and a bowl, he filled the bowl about half way and then added the milk.

As Flash sat at the table, he heard the front door open and close. He also heard, "Spike, since when did the sofa and quill store sell quills for the price of a sofa, and a sofa for the price of quills?!" Twilight asked with anger.

"I don't know." Spike replied.

Flash then heard whispering, before the the kitchen door swung open startling Flash, so much so that when he jumped, his bowl went off the table!

"Got it!" Twilight said as she caught the bowl with her magic.

Flash looked at Twilight and said, "Thanks."

"You're welcome." Twilight said getting some breakfast.

"For second I though you trying to give me a heart attack." Flash said taking a bite of his cereal.

"And why would I do that?" Twilight said looking at him with a strait face.

"I don't know, new experiment." Flash said with a smile.

Twilight just grinned and rolled her eyes. "Ha Ha." She said.

Twilight took a bite of her cereal, and Flash asked her something. "So, are you doing anything exciting tonight?"

Twilight started to cough, as if to be choking. Before Flash could do anything Twilight was able to swallow properly.

"What happened?" Flash asked with concern.

"Um swallowed wrong I guess." Twilight smiled awkwardly.

"Ok then." Flash said going back to his cereal.

"Oh! Your question!" Twilight remembered. "To answer you question, yes, I am." She continued.

"Like what?" Flash looked at her.

"I am doing some astronomy science, or I guess you could just say, stargazing." Twilight replied.

"Cool, I love to stare at the stars..." Flash said with a smile."especially if I staring at the stars with you." He looked at her.

Twilight blushed. "Well if you want to...you can join me."Again, Twilight smiled awkwardly.

"Sure." Flash said.

After finishing his breakfast, Flash went to town, not going to buy anything but simply exploring. He looked around and saw some pegisi clearing the clouds. After looking around town some more, Flash had an encounter with a pony by the name of Pinkie Pie.

"Hello, are you new?! Oh please tell me you are new!" The pink earth pony bounced in front of him.

"Um...I'm new." Flash said slowly.

"I new it! Get it, I new it." Pinkie said with a giggle.

"Yes I did get it." Flash said.

"I am going to throw you welcome party, if that's ok, is it, is it, is it?" Pinkie asked getting n his face.

"Yes it is." Flash said.

"Yaaaaaaaa! I'vegottogonowsobye!" Pinkie said quickly before running off.

"Wow! Talk about a motormouth." Flash said continuing his walk through town.

The sun was setting and Flash was making his way back to Twilight's library.

As he walked in the door, he saw darkness, not a candle was lit and Flash had to feel around to find his way upstairs.

The sun was set and Twilight had begun her gaze.

"You weren't starting without me were you?" Flash smiled as he walked up behind Twilight.

Twilight blushed. "Of corse not." She smiled. "Come and sit." Twilight taped on the balcony floor beside her.

Flash sat down and looked up at the moon, which was rising higher and higher. As gazed at the appearing stars, he heard Twilight sigh.

"What is it?" Flashed asked looking at the lavender alicorn.

"What? Oh! Nothing." Twilight said.

"Please tell me." Flash said with concern.

"Well...I..." Twilight said, Flash spotted a small tear in hear eye, as she gazed in to his blue eyes. "I just...I've missed you so much Flash!" Twilight said flinging herself into his arms, giving him a hug.

"You- You have...?" He asked, Twilight nodded and continued to hug him. "So...does this mean......she loves me?" Flash thought.

The two let go of each other but sat close to one another. Flash rapped his wing around Twilight as they returned their gaze back to the sky.

Twilight looked at the sky and then back to Flash, who was still starring at the stars. Her gaze fell from his face to his shoulder, Twilight was tired really just wanted to go to sleep.

Flash felt something on his shoulder, he looked over to see Twilight resting her head on his shoulder. Flash stroked her mane as he looked up at the moon and stars.

All of the sudden, Flash felt warm inside, knowing that Twilight just had to love him.

"I wonder if he loves me back. I sure hope he does." Twilight, thought before completely drifting off to sleep.

Flash continued to look at the stars, getting tired as well. He felt so good inside, knowing that company loved him.

The Dreams

Flash's eyes fluttered open, then he released where he was. Remembering what happened last night, Flash was quick to jump up and look around. Twilight was nowhere to be seen, all he saw was a blanket on his back. Flash sighed and face hoofed. "Flash you idiot!

I knew last night was too good to be true! Because it was, it was just a dream!"

Flash got up and walked slowly into Twilight's bedroom. Twilight lie in bed sound asleep. He walked up to her bed and just stared at her. Suddenly, Twilight's eyes snapped open. Flash was startled, not by her sudden awakening, but the fact that her beautiful purple eyes were no longer! Her eyes were green and serpentine!

Flash stumbled backward and landed on his back. 'Twilight' got out of bed and stood in front of him. "Twilight, what happened to you?" Flash asked with alarm.

"Oh, but don't you know that your mare friend is no more?" 'Twilight' smirked.

"What are you talking about?" Flash looked at her angrily.

"Why don't you see for yourself?" The mare pointed to the bed.

Flash looked under the bed, but nothing was there. Flash saw something on the other side. Flash gasped as he reached the other side of the bed. there lay the real Twilight Sparkle covered with bruises scrapes and other wounds.

"TWILIGHT!" Flash screamed using one of his fore hooves to support her head. "What did you do to her?" Flash asked with anger.

"Oh, I just took away some of her life span..." The evil mare grinned.

"How much?" Flash asked.

"All of it!! BWAHAHAHA!!!" The mare laughed maniacally.

"NOOOOOOOOO! You monster!" Flash screamed as tears of anger and sadness started to roll down his face.

"Monster? Oh but I am so much more than that!" The mare said with an evil smile.

Her eyes started to glow as green orbs, and a ring of fire surrounded the mare. Suddenly, the fire became a so large that it touched the ceiling, keeping Flash from seeing what was going on.

When the fire was gone, Flash gasped. Before him stood Queen Chrysalis! "So tell me, what am I know?" Chrysalis smirked.

Flash stared with fear at the large figure, Twilight still laying in his arms.

"That's what I thought, good bye!" Chrysalis said before her horn started to glow, and Flash began to fall through a hole that suddenly appeared in the floor.

Flash's eyes shot open, beads of sweat rolling down his face, his heart breathing rapidly. Flash looked around and saw the one thing that calmed him. Twilight was sound asleep beside him, her head still resting on his shoulder. He sighed.

"Thank Celestia that that was a dream!" Flash said wiping the sweat off of his forehead.

Flash looked back at Twilight. He smiled and kissed her on the cheek. Twilight yawned, and then she opened her eyes, which was followed by a smile.

"Good morning Flash." She said looking up at him.

"Morning." Flash replied.

All of the sudden, Twilight eyes widened and she jumped to her hoofs. "Oh my word, Oh my word, Oh my word! Did I... did we? Ooohhh Celestia!" Twilight said starting to back away as Flash got up.

"What?" Flash asked walking closer to Twilight.

"We, we...we..." Twilight stuttered.

"Slept together?" Flash filed in the blank.

Twilight blushed and slowly nodded. Flash slightly blushed as well, and then he remembered something.

"Oh, my welcome party is today!" Flash said.

"Oh right!" Twilight remembered also.

"We need to get to Sugarcube Corner." Twilight said waking up Spike who got up quickly.

In about five minutes Twilight and Flash trotted out the door with Spike.

When they walked in the door, Pinkie jumped out in front of them. "SURPRISE!" All the ponies shouted with Pinkie.

Pinkie introduced Flash to ponyville and the party went on.

Sadly the party ended to soon it seemed, but it ended at sunset. Twilight, Spike, and Flash went back to the Library.

Flash went down stairs and went to bed. Twilight on the other hoof, had a hard time going to sleep. She read for a wile, hoping that it would make her sleepy.

Finally She was able to sleep.

Flash slept peacefully, until he heard some pony scream, it was Twilight! Flash jumped out of bed and ran up stairs as quickly as he could.

"NOOOOOOOOOO!!! LEAVE ME ALONE!!!" Twilight screamed.

Flash ran up to Twilight. Nothing was in the house bothering her, thankfully. Flash shook Twilight.

"Twilight! Twilight your having a nightmare, wake up!" Flash almost had to yell.

Twilight snapped awake panting heavily.

"What happened? You were screaming at the top of your lugs." Flash said.

"I was?" Twilight asked before she started to sob.

"What is it?" Flash asked.

"Oh Flash! It...it was...a-a-awful! She killed you!" Twilight cried in his coat.

"She who?" Flash asked cradling Twilight.

"The changeling Queen. Queen Chrysalis!" Twilight continued to cry

"Well the only thing that matters, is that, it was only a dream." Flash tried to comfort his mare friend.

"B-b-but...what if it wasn't? You know that sometimes dreams can be a vision of the future. I so scared!" Twilight said.

                         Flash tried to find a way to help her calm down. And then, he had an idea!

Come stop your crying, It will be alright

Just take my hoof

Hold it tight

I will protect you, from all around you

I will be here

Don't you cry

For one so small, you seem so strong

My arms will hold you, keep you safe and warm

This bond between us can't be broken

I will be here don't you cry

                                           Twilight looked at him, "Flash, I-I didn't know you could sing."

                               "I guess I just full of surprises..." Flash said with a smile. "Can you sing?"

                                                       "Why don't you find out?" Twilight smiled

                                                  (Blue is Flash, and Purple os Twilight, and Bold is both)

'Cause you'll be in my heart

Yes, you'll be in my heart

From this day on

Now and forever more

You'll be in my heart

No matter what they say

You'll be here in my heart, always

Why can't they understand the way we feel?

They just don't trust what they can't explain

I know we're different but deep inside us

We're not that different at all

And you'll be in my heart

Yes, you'll be in my heart

From this day on

Now and forever more

Don't listen to them

'Cause what do they know?

We need each other

To have, to hold.

They'll see in time

I know

When destiny calls you

You must be strong

I may not be with you

But you've got to hold on

They'll see in time

I know

We'll show them together

'Cause you'll be in my heart

Yes, you'll be in my heart

I'll be there from this day on,

Now and forever more

Oh, you'll be in my heart

No matter what they say

You'll be here in my heart, always

Always

I'll be with you

I'll be there for you always

Always and always

Just look over your shoulder

Just look over your shoulder

Just look over your shoulder

I'll be there *always.***

                            "Flash could you stay with me, please?" Twilight asked, looking into his eyes.

                                                      Flash nodded looking into her's.

                                              Slowly, both leaned forward, and they kissed.

This Couldn't Get Any Better

Twilight yawned and rubbed her eyes. She felt rested. Twilight opened her sleepy eyes and turned over to find herself face to face with Flash who was still asleep. She smiled. The princess carefully got up, trying not to disturb the sleeping pony in her bed. Carefully walking downstairs, Twilight looked around. An empty library.

Twilight picked up a book that she had been reading and opened it to the book marked spot and began reading. After a while, Twilight heard herself humming the song from the previous night.

There was a knock at the door. Twilight opened it and welcomed her guest. "Hi Pinkie Pie!" Twilight said cheerfully.

"Hi Twilight!" Pinkie responded, her usual bubbly personality.

"What do you need?" Twilight asked.

"Well..."Pinkie began."I wanted to drop-off this last piece of cake from last night's party!" Pinkie announced.

"Yawn...morning Twilight. Morning Pinkie." Flash said walking down the stairs.

"Morning sleepy-head...!" Pinkie said. "still tired from last night's party are ya?" She asked.

"No, I...was kinda up late last night." Flash said, blushing a little. Twilight also blushed.

Pinkie narrowed her eyes and looked at Flash. "Oh...I see." She said.

"See what Pinkie?" Twilight asked.

Pinkie was quick to respond." Nothing! I know nothing!" With that Pinkie quickly set the cake down and raced out the door.

Flash looked at Twilight who shrugged. "What do you think she meant?" He asked her.

"I don't know. Sometimes that mare thinks the craziest thi-" Twilight paused and looked at Flash who must have been thinking the same thing because he and Twilight both went "Uh-oh!"

Twilight quickly teleported and landed right in front of Pinkie. "No Pinkie!" Twilight said.

"No what." Pinkie asked confused.

"I know what you were thinking and you assumed wrong!" Twilight said quietly.

"What is so wrong with thinking that you and Flash were up late playing video games?" Pinkie asked, still confused.

"What?" Twilight asked.

"I only thought that you two were up late playing video games. Which reminds me, can I come over and play Ponycart 8 with you sometime? I hear it's the coolest game yet!" Pinkie exclaimed. "Oh, oh, oh!!! Or Minecraft! Now that is the coolest game yet!!"

"No, Pinkie you've got it all wrong. We weren't playing video games. I don't even have a WiiU." Twilight said.

"Aw man..!" Pinkie said. "Wait...if you weren't up playing video games last night, then what were you doing?"She asked.

Twilight was trying to put what she was going say into words that wouldn't give Pinkie any ideas. "Well...lets just say I couldn't sleep and Flash sang me a lullaby." She said.

"Aw! How cute!" Pinkie exclaimed

"Yeah." Twilight replied.

Pinkie turned to leave, but before she took a single step she turned back around. "Twilight..." She began.

"Yes?" Twilight asked."

"What did you originally think that I thought? I mean what was with the 'You've-Got-the-Wrong-Idea' thing?" Pinkie inquired.

Twilight's eyes widened, "Uh...nothing, never mind." She smiled sheepishly.

Pinkie got into Twilight's face and narrowed her eyes. "Are, you sure?" She asked suspiciously.

"Y-yes." Twilight slowly replied.

Pinkie suddenly changed moods again, returning to her happy, bubbly self. "Okie Doki Loki!" Pinkie said. "Bye Twilight, see you later!" Pinkie Pie cheerfully bided Twilight good-bye and resumed her daily...well, what ever she did daily!

"Bye Pinkie!" Twilight said. She thanked Celestia that her friend hadn't pushed the matter farther, or she would've cracked.

Twilight teleported back to the library, which scared the crud out of Spike as he organized some books that Twilight had left out accidentally.

"Yikes! Twilight...!" Spike exclaimed. "You can't just drop in like this, it scares me to death!" He said.

"Oh Spike! You wouldn't be talking if that were the case!" Twilight giggled.

"Ha ha, so funny." Spike said sarcastically.

"Oh come on Spike, why don't you just laugh about it, instead of being a sarcastic-pants." Twilight said.

"So, did Pinkie come up with expected thought, or something hilarious and ridiculous?" Flash asked, coming down the stairs.

"That would be Hilarious and Ridiculous. She thought we were playing Video Games." Twilight said with a smile and a role of her eyes.

"Good." Flash said with smile.

Twilight continued a book she had been reading. Flash went through some books out of curiosity, and found a small note book.

He flipped to the last page of the note book, which was bookmarked with a letter which read...

Dear, Twilight Sparkle

The last page contained at the end of this book is Star Swirl the Bearded's unfinished masterpiece.

He was never able to get it right, and thus abandoned it. I believe that you are the only one who will be able to fix it.

Yours,Princess Celestia

On the left side page it said:

From One To Another, Another To One, A Mark Of One's Destiny Singled Out Alone Fulfilled.

And on the right it read:

From All Of Us Together, Together We Are Friends, With The Marks Of Our Destinies Made One, There Is Magic Without End.

"Hmm...Twilight, what is this?" Flash asked

"Hm...?" Twilight Came up beside him. "Oh! I remember this..." Twilight said cheerfully. "This was the spell that Celestia sent me one day. She told me that Star Swirl the Bearded had created the spell, but was unable to finish it..." She said.

"So, what happened?" Flash asked.

"I cast the spell, and thought nothing happened, but I was wrong..."

"What are you doing, what happened to your cutie mark?!" Twilight asked in alarm.

"What ever do you mean Twilight? I'm simply doing what I've done since the day it first appeared."Rarity said arranging the clouds to a curtain pattern. "Does my sky look fabulous or what?" Rarity asked.

Many ponies began to crowd around Rarity and Twilight, complaining about how the sky looked and saying that the sky shouldn't be like that.

"Where is Rainbow Dash? Why isn't she handling this?" Twilight asked.

"So...the spell changed Rarity's cutie mark?" Flash asked.

"Yes...but not just hers. All my friends cutie marks' had changed." Twilight replied. "My friends destinies' were messed up, and I thought that it was my fault! I also thought that since there was no counter spell, I could do nothing about it!" Twilight said.

"Then what happened?" Flash asked, egger to hear more.

"Spike reminded me that these were my friends, and that I shouldn't up so easily. I realized that he was right, these were my friends, and they meant more to me than any pony else in the world!" Twilight said. with a smile. "I knew what to do, I had to show them what they meant to each other, so that they could find the part of them selves that's been lost so that they can help the friend they cared about so much!"

"Really? Wow!" Flash said. "Did it work?" He asked.

"Yes..." Twilight replied. "After getting all of my friend back to their normal selves, I understood how to fix the spell. I then wrote the last part here..." Twilight said pointing to the last page. "After I finished writing, The Elements sent me to a special place, where Celestia told me that I was ready to take on a new change that fulfilled my destiny.  When I returned to my friends, I had wings! My coronation as a new princess was the following day!" Twilight finished.

"So, that is how you became a princess?" Flash asked.

"Yes." Twilight replied.

The lavender alicorn returned to her book. after a few minutes of silence, Twilight looked up from her book. "You know what? I'm getting kind of bored, how about you Flash?" Twilight asked.

"Yeah, I am as well." Flash said.

"Oh! Oh! I've got an idea! Pick me! Pick me!" Spike said with excitement raising his hand like a student in class.

"Yes, Spike?" Twilight asked.

"Why don't we go to the park? We haven't been there in a wile!" Spike suggested eagerly.

"You know what Spike, I think that's a great idea, lets do it!" Twilight said.

When they reached the park Flash and Spike played catch, Twilight sat on a park bench and watched. There was a nice breeze, and Twilight closed her eyes as it blew across her face. This sensation was ended in a matter of three seconds when the ball hit her right in the head! Twilight scowled at Spike who pointed at Flash. Flash was snickering. Twilight rolled her eyes and smiled as Flash decided that he just couldn't contain himself and burst out laughing.

"Y-you should have see y-your f-face!" Flash said as he continued to laugh. Once again, Twilight rolled her eyes.

But then Twilight got an ornery idea. She motioned for Spike to move as she picked up the ball, aimed and FIRE!

She giggled as the ball hit him right in the nose.

Flash sneezed and looked over at Twilight who had a I-Didn't-Do-Nothing look on her face.

"Yeah yeah, you better put that halo away, or I will knock it off!" Flash said.

Twilight started to giggle. Spike joined in.

When Twilight was able to stop giggling, she looked at Flash and smirked, "Oh yeah? Bring it!" She said.

Flash bucked the ball, whited Twilight who up into the air, dodging it.

Twilight took the ball with her magic. She concentrated and duplicated the ball into tens.

"What th-Yikes!" Flash tried to dodge the ten balls flying toward him, but failed.

"Hay that was unfair!" He said

The two continued to throw and dodge the ball, it went on for a wile, but little did they know, that they were being watched.

"Oh, look at this... two little ponies playing together, how cute!" Said Queen Chrysalis, whatching the two play ball thought her crystal ball. "Oh keep on playing, but I will be pooping and your party promptly! Hahahahaha!" Chrysalis exclaimed.

"Good one your Highness!" A Changeling servant buzzed.

"I know, that was good wasn't it?" Chrysalis asked. The other Changelings in the room nodded.

"Now, let's see, we know that human loves Twilight, but does she love him?" Chrysalis asked herself.

Just then, a pony walked into the room, bowing before Chrysalis and then saluting.

"So, what have you four out, my faithful scout?" the Queen asked him.

The pony returned to changeling form and said. "Turns out, Twilight does return feelings for this human." the changeling reported.

"And what was the level on that Lovedometer that I gave you?" Chrysalis inquired.

"High your Majesty! higher than Shinning Armors readings were.!"

"Excellent!" Chrysalis buzzed. "Now my faithful scout! You must find away to get Twilight on her own, so that I may take her place!"

She said.

"With all due respect, your Highness." A servant in the room said. "Twilight was able to sense the differences in Cadence when you took over her body, do you think the this human might suspect that Twilight isn't Twilight?" The changeling asked bowing as he did so.

"Must you remind me of that failure?" Chrysalis said with an irritated look on her face.

"Sorry, your Majesty." The servant said.

Chrysalis returned her attention to her scout. "Bring her to me, and make quick work of it! Go!" Chrysalis ordered.

"Yes your Highness, I shall not fail you!" The changeling returned to the pony form and flew away.

                                                              "You'd better not!" Said Chrysalis.

The Return Home

Flash sighed as he looked up at the class clock, it read 1:00. He looked around the class room, he saw faces that he remembered from that night, there was Fluttershy, Sunset Shimmer, Rainbow Dash, and Pinkie Pie. Even though it had been a long time, ever since that night, there had been one thing on his mind, Twilight Sparkle.

When the bell rang, Flash looked outside, that statue in front of the school still stood in its' place. I wonder? Flash thought. He walked over to the statue, looked around to see if anyone would see him, nope, nobody. Flash carefully put his hand to the portal, it was open!

Sunset Shimmer came around the corner to see Flash sticking his hand in the portal. "What is he doing?" Sunset asked herself. Flash took a deep breath, and he stepped through the portal.

Sunset Shimmer gasped, she couldn't believe it.

She looked around, nobody was watching. She made a quick dash for the portal, she ran right into it! And she to, was headed for Equestria.

Flash came through the portal, he had a blue mane and wings. "Good to be home." He whispered to himself. He looked around. "This isn't Canterlot Castle." Flash said, and indeed it wasn't. He walked down the crystal halls, as he looked around, bonk! He bumped into somepony.

"Oh, hello. Are you lost?" the pink alicorn known as Princess Cadence asked.

"Uh, yes, I was looking for Princess Twilight, is she here?" Flash asked the princess. Princess Cadence smiled, she knew about everything.

"No, she hasn't been here for a wile." Princess Cadence said. "Although, it is great to have you back, Flash." Flash was shocked.

How did she know who he was?

"And I hope that my sister-in-law, will have the same affections for you, as you do for her." Princess Cadence knew that Flash was now paralyzed at the fact that the princess knew.

"Wate, what? How did you...?" Flash was so shocked that he couldn't even talk!

Princess Cadence chuckled as Flash face hoofed . "You see Flash, I am the Princess of Love." Cadence began to explain."I can see the love in other ponies' hearts, and who they have affection towards." Cadence winked at Flash.

Flash, still standing in the hall like a paralyzed crab, couldn't believe any of the words that Cadence just said. Flash, shook his head, trying to take in all that was said.

"Um, where does she live?" Flash asked with embarrassment in his voice.

Cadence smiled and said, "She lives in Ponyville." Flash nodded, he knew where that was.

Cadence showed him to the Crystal Train Station, there got on a train to Ponyville.

Meanwhile

Sunset Shimmer stepped out of the portal, she looked around, Sunset knowing that this castle was being guarded, she was going to sneak through the castle. Moving swiftly she almost slid past Princess Cadence's and Prince Shining Armor's room. She put her ear to the door, there was a strange sound. Sunset carefully opened the door.  She gasped, Sinning Armor lay on the floor, unconscious, and Cadence was in the corner, her eyes were full of fear, staring at a large figure in front of her.

Sunset's horn began to glow, she gasped. "Well, well, well. Look who we have here." Queen Chrysalis said, now standing in front of Sunset. Sunset jumped into battle stance, she didn't know what this thing was, but whatever it was, she was going to take care of it.

"Do you really think that I'm easy to beat?" Chrysalis smirked. Sunset shot a beam of turquoise light. But Chrysalis was gone by the time the beam was supposed to hit her.

"Bwa ha ha ha ha ha!" The Queen laughed as out of nowhere, a magic blast of light shot toward Sunset Shimmer and hit her.

Next thing Sunset knew, she was laying next to a terrified Cadence, who said, "You,you...you saved my life!" Cadence hugged the hurt unicorn. Sunset Shimmer stood up to see that the Queen was gone.

"Who was that?" Sunset asked, rubbing her head.

"That was Queen Chrysalis, she's the Queen of the Changelings." Cadence answered. "Once she took over me, and fooled everypony but Twilight." Cadence continued.

This caught Sunset's attention. "Did you say, Twilight?" Sunset Shimmer asked.

"Yes, she is my sister-in-law." Cadence answered.

"Twilight is the one who helped me learn the Magic of Friendship." Sunset explained.

Cadence nodded. Cadence knew that the Queen returned, because of Flash, and that it wasn't going to be good.
