Chapter 1: The Hive No More

The changeling hive bustled with activity, each drone and solider moving towards the outer wall of the hive, whilst the civilian and reproducing changeling`s where lead into the bunkers by a small fraction of the changelings soldiers.

Queen Chrysalis ordered the commanding generals into place, the enemy their where face was passed down in legions from the before the dark time of Discord region.
Chrysalis had seen this creature before, it had defeated an inter Griffin army by itself, given many names by many races;

To the griffins it was the Mountain Mover,
To the ponies it was the spirit of the wild,
To the Minotaurs it was the Beast,

But to her people, it was far worse than anything it had done, to any other the other races.

Sure the griffins had the recorded worst, with a whole city trapped by a mountain through at the city, but the changeling had the blunt of the rage, to them it was DEATH!

“Stay strong!” she barked down the battlements, all the guard had dark blue armour covering their grey exoskeletons.

Chrysalis ready her magic, the brawler soldiers stood on the ground each 7 feet tall with their muscle mass making them incapable of flight, in ceremony they wings wouldbe removed from them as they were useless to them.

The large magically reinforced iron door, vibrated with a hard impact, followed by another with a circular dent forming in the door.

“Steady!” order a general from the changeling frontlines.

Another crash as another dent formed in the door, with a cold metal clang vibrating off the door.

“Aim!” barked the general.

The third and final strike of shot the door of it hinges sending it flying over the court yard with dust pumps covering the creature known as ‘Death’.

The only thing visible was a pair of glowing red eyes, with concentrated rage flowing like dark magic.

“FIRE!!!” shouted the general, all the changelings fired green death beams at the creature, all of them stopped after a minute, dust still pumping up from the ground.

Chrysalis stood, she was about to order a retreat when something blacked out the sun.

A brawler landed near her position on the battlements, screams of dying changelings echoed up from the courtyard ground. A plum of dust obscured everything 20 feet about the ground.

Peering hard into the dust a figure could be seen, too much dust obscured detail, with every other changeling cowering behind the battlements the crimson eyes looked up.

Chrysalis didn`t waste time, the guards will deal with this monster as she made her retreat, a cry on pain when through the air as all the changelings charged the beast in the pit.

Closing the large blast door behind her Chrysalis sprinted for the throne room, ‘death’ would be upon her if she didn`t move fast enough.

The dark green and black of the walls made every entrance nearly impossible to find to the untrained eye.

But Chrysalis had learnt this the hard way, ‘Death’ does not need its eyes to kill, only one of its senses and your dead! She had spent a thousand years in anticipation of when ‘Death’ finally reared his snout, in all of the plans shed ever through off, it could… no it would always win.

Finally reaching the throne room, Chrysalis made the next step in evacuation of the hive, “Being teleporting the civilians!” she order down a series of tubes and holes to the civilians below.

‘Death’ can find you if you run, if you teleport it gives you longer to make plans, something Chrysalis had learnt the hard way, her mother didn`t teleport to safety, she died within a week of running.

Changeling drones ran toward the large shadow covered figure with spears, all of them were thrown against walls and ceiling by a large silver tipped club like object.

He could smell her, Chrysalis knew it, only a few more civilians to evacuate then she would teleport to the new hive, changelings always have a spare hive, but now with Celestia against them, they had only the one, meaning she would have to go to someone to help them finally get rid of the monster killing her subjects.

A large thud as foot or hoof steps echoed down the hall.

No changeling knew what ‘Death’ looked like, if they see him they will die, that is a fact lasting back 3 thousand years, to the first changeling to break away from ponies.

“All civilians evacuated your majesty!” came a changeling general.

Chrysalis swallowed hard, “Go, get all un-hatched solider you can, I want an army by this time next week!” she bellowed.

Chrysalis had an image to maintain, only a few knew of her softer side, none of her generals where informed that she through about anything other than war and domination.

“Yes your majesty!” the voice replied.

A garbled scream echoed down the corridor to the throne room, Chrysalis had one last thing to do before she left, grab the historic records from under the throne.

Held in the royal family to keep all of the changeling’s history, and Chrysalis was only the second queen in the changelings 3 thousand year history, she wasn`t about to let her mother tradition stop here and now!

Another scream came but this time from the pipes and intercoms of the changeling throne room, soldier and pupa`s splattering underneath something, and a deep primal growl.

Chrysalis hurried grabbing her royal battle armour, again an earlobe from her late mother, Chrysalis had modified it, so inside of the sickly yellow colour of her mother hair it was inside the vivid green of her hair.

Placing the records in a large leather pouch on her sides Chrysalis ready the spell to leave, then a small voice echoed behind her.

"Mummy what goi"- her daughter voice was muffled by a roar and the throne room doors exploding in on itself.

Chrysalis tried to stop the spell and reach her daughter, she vanished a few centimetres away from her.

Princess Love Lust the only changeling left in the hive, looked at the face of ‘Death’. She fainted on the spot.

Chrysalis finished talking, she had just retold all the necessary events to Princess Celestia.

Celestia, had a hard look, one of hatred on her face, not for the Changeling Queen but for ‘Death’.
“Chrysalis” she finally spoke “I will help you deal with ‘Death’ in return I want you and the changelings, to ally yourself with Equestria” said Celestia

Celestia was a smart diplomat, Chrysalis knew that, and also the only help she was ever likely to get “Yes I agree to your terms” blurted Chrysalis.

Celestia put a hoof on her shoulder, “I know you’re worried about your daughter, I can promise you that when we find this creature, you will have justice! I promise” Said Celestia firmly.

A trail of circular prints lay in the dust of the Bad Lands, beside them small oddly shaped tracks, both of them headed in the same direction.

Towards Equestria.

Author's Note

A story with about 3 interlinking subplots if I get everything working.

the reason for this story is simple, why does Equestria not have any wilderness?

please leave some comments

Chapter 2: lunar memories

Princess Luna, princess of the night, owner of the stars and moon, was reading, a book only seen by one other set of eyes, Celestia`s, Princess Twilight may have found the diary from when the two sister were 100 on but this diary was from before that.

Flipping through the pages Luna smiled, memories of her 'early' childhood, this diary had been kept at the request of their father and mother, like they seem to know what was going to happen in the future, it wouldn`t surprise Luna if they did.

She got to a page, it had a crudely drawn image of two sister and 3 friends, one was obviously Discord, his mane wasn`t grown, and had a large white tuft between the growing horns, the next was a unicorn, a large floppy wizard hat covering half his face, the third was a earth pony, mess mane and tail with large broad smile, small fangs in the row of straight teeth.

Luna smiled, the young Discord and Starswirl the bearded, had a relationship akin to brotherhood, Discord had been hatched by Starswirl, as the first unicorn to learn magic in the way it is known to ponies today, of all of them he was mad inventor, his veins flowing with pure magic, he should have lived forever, but when Tirek nearly killed him, it left everypony a little down hearted, and Discord was shown the fragility of his best friend, he snapped slightly.

Then her memory turned to the earth pony, more at home in a forest then a castle, he was the reason their was a royal garden, and the predominantly earth-pony guard, due to him physically pushing Tirek into tartarus, then wadding out through the river of souls. Ironic really he was Luna best friend, and his name was -

Luna reminiscing was disturbed by a puff of chaotic magic, Discord`s chaotic face appeared in the photo, changing the face of his younger self, "Psst Luna, Luna. Hey Luna, Have you heard the news, Chrissy joining us at the palace!" he whispered, disappearing and reappearing next to the lunar princess. Luna sighed, she had herd the news of the changeling queen joining them at the palace.

"Yes I have heard the knew of Chrysalis joining us at the palace, but I detest the though personally" she stated with an air of disapproval "Oh Luna, it a good thing, I have more people to course my chaotic effects to" he said wringing his paw and talon together.

Then Discord looked at the picture for a moment, he sighed then sat down on the bed a guilty look on his face "If Starswirl could see me now, I don't know what he'd think" Luna placed a hoof on the dragonequus, "He would still be your friend no matter what happen"

Discord smiled then something through him off, he wobbled at something "Luna you destroyed the nightmare essence right?" he asked off hand, she nodded giving him an odd look "Then why do I fell it presence?"

A black mist bellowed from the shadows, as a pair of red eyes glowed in the dark, and a voice echoed over both of them, a voce full of malice and spite "A perceptive one, no matter" The eyes rised to Discord height, then a pitch black leg excited the shadows, it dull sliver hoof, glinted in the light, followed by the face, it had fangs, a promenade set of two, with two facing down, two towards the sky. The rest of jaw was lined with sharp jagged teeth. His mane was a mixture of red and blue energy, flowing upwards, with a large black horn that looked like it was a sharpened, it looked veery much like Sombra but without the red tint. It eyes were le Nghtmare Moon's only instead of cold blue they burned a deep crimson. Large demonic bat wings folded up against it side.

"Who are't thou?!" bellowed Luna, the demon smiled slightly, he words seem cynical and almost mocking "I thought Dad had the anger issue" Discord looked at the creature, he seem without fear. He disappeared and reappeared in a doctor's whet coat, with a large needle, he tried to get a sample of blood form the creature but only found he oversized medical instrument to break on contact. "Oh, an uncooperative on!, find bring out the really oversized needle!"

The pony rolled his eyes "You`ll work out my parents so enough, over groan lizard, I have a message for Princess Luna" he loomed over the smaller alicorn and spoke again "Mother will return, whether you like it or not" and with that he sank into the floor, like a shadow in the night.

Discord and Luna looked at each other for a moment "Mother? Arent you a virgin?" asked Discord, Luna looked away flustered "What happens in my bedroom is non of your concern!" she said using a wing to cover her face. "It kinda is now, Luna, Nightmare Moon is that things mother, no denying it! And Nightmare Moon just one of your personalities, not a different being, so it also your son? If you could call it a boy that is? Anyway, if that thing wants Nightmare Moon back he`s going to have to have some form of plan, we just need to work it out!"

Luna raised an eyebrow and spoke "I think the only sensible thing I`ve ever heard you say"
"Pudding is good for helping stick to socks"
"And your back to normal"

Princess Lovelust the only changeling to survive the fury of Death, was walking under his shad, the harsh sun of the Badlands, silhouetted him against the skyline, only his dark brown colour was visible. In the story her mother used to tell her, Death carried 4 maces, all having a metal tip, well they turned out to be his hooves, metal hooves, she`d never heard of anypony having metal hooves, or anypony being over 10 hooves tall, both of them just walked in silence for hours on end.

As night drew closer, Lovelust became tired, the sun was still harsh but lower in the sky, as she yawned, the voice of death echoed in her ears "Here, I get you hope, you take a nap" he seemed kind and wise, not a demonic voice full of darkness and anger, but one of kindness and tolerance. Lovelust was to tired to respond as the massive head of the stallion picked up the tiny changeling and placed her on his back.

As night began the cold winds bellowed through, and Lovelust pushed herself unconsciously into the stallions fur, his red eyes smiled slightly, as he walked through the night, towards the green planes of Equestria and the small changeling`s mother.
