Fall of Equestria: Uprise

Chapter 1

___________________________________________________________

"Do you understand the importance of your mission?" Princess Celestia asked, looking at me as she and Luna stood in front of me.

I nodded my head bowed, my wings at my folded against my back, kneeling on one leg, while my forehoof rested on the other, my other forehoof flat on the floor, as a sign of respect.

I am Autum Breeze, daughter of Princess Twilight Sparkle and Prince Carapace. While my mother is the Alicorn of Friendship, my father is the son of Chrysalis, Queen of the Changelings.

Their love for each other brought the two species and kingdoms together, brining peace between us and ending the conflicts that had been going on since the invasion during my aunt and uncle's wedding.

I am a Pegasus, with a brown coat, murky-yellow mane and tail and yellow eyes. However, while my outward appearance says I am just a regular pony, I am also a Changeling Princess. I have several of my father's species' powers, including mind magic, the ability to make myself invisible and speak directly to the hive mind through my thoughts.

Now, however, I am readied for a new task other than being the first sign of our races joining as one. Word has arrived from Discord that there is an Equestria parallel to our own, where the imbalance, if not fixed, will cause all worlds to be destroyed.

Several years ago, when I was still in my teen years before I hit my twenties, we were invaded by a race known as the caribou. We had thought them as allies, until they turned on us, and tried to enforce their primitive beliefs on our kind.

They had not anticipated the Rainbow Power, which, when my mother and her friends, whom I see as my aunts, unleashed it's might, the war was ended before it even really began. Most caribou were taken by my grandmother, who punished them by making them part of the breeding program for her hive.

The few caribou who had remained in their land, those who did not believe in the primitive ways of their kind, had been spared, and allowed to rebuild their kingdom with aid from our own.

In this other world, however, that was not the case. In that world, the caribou were smarter, the invasion happened long before my mother and aunts returned the Elements to the Tree of Harmony, thus they were not able to get to the Elements in time to stop the invasion.

Five years have passed since our world was saved, however little of over two years have passed since their world's invasion, and while we were not in bad shape for it, the other world was. There, females are now treated as nothing but cum-dumpsters, toys for the males to use whenever and however they see fit, whether that be to just get off, milk them or breed.

It sickens me how the caribou did it. They somehow had convinced that world's Discord to betray ponykind, much like how he had in ours when Tirek had attacked. He had infected the Crystal Heart, which then infected Cadance and spread. There, however, his betrayal had lead to the domination of Equestria. However, he suffered as well, for his magic was all but striped from him after the invasion was over and the war one.

The caribou were no fools. After getting his aid, they'd planned against Discord, creating rune magic that imprisoned him in stone. He now sits in the castle gardens once more, left to spend all eternity with what he did, fully aware as to what happened to all of ponykind.

Our discord said the other him was not taking it well, especially when his powers had allowed him to observe everything, including when the caribou broke Fluttershy, making her their obedient and willing sex slave.

We had spent as much time as possible studying the caribou rune magic from our own world for red last two years, knowing if we learned from it, my chances of freeing the other world would be at much better odds.

Now, you are probably wondering why I alone am going into that world and not my mother and aunts, or the princesses themselves. It is because I do not exist in the other world. Their, my mother never got the chance to meet my father, so I was never born. Thus, I will not cause a paradox when I go. If my mother, aunts or any if the princesses were to go, the risk of multiversal collapse would happen even sooner.

This way, I could try to save that world, save those I cared about, save my kingdom, and not risk the end of everything should I meet anypony.

I would not, however, being going all alone. My grandmother has set up a small army of Changelings, fifty thousand of the high ranked Praetorian to aid me as well as two thousand drones. They would be my eyes and ears all over that world while a contingent of them would remain near my person, to unsure I was not harmed.

This would be good, for the sad fact was the Changeling race had been extinct since just before the invasion in that world. That had been the first part of the caribou's plan. They had gotten Discord to rain fire down on the Badlands, scorching the earth and killing anything and everything, including the Changelings.

With these Changelings, however, I would be able to rebuild the Hive. And I would, with great joy, use the caribou as part of the process. They would find out just how horrible it was to be forced to do something you did not want to do.

I stood up on my forelegs, the world I was going to was one where all creatures like ponies were anthropomorphic, so I had spent several months learning how to walk on two legs, getting lessons from Lyra Heartstring, the foremost pony expert on such matters.

My aunts all came up, saying goodbye in their own ways. Rainbow Dash shared a hoofbump with me, while both Fluttershy and Pinkie held me close, Pinkie bawling her eyes out like my mother had told me she did when Celestia and Luna had been reunited, Rarity held me close, before she pushed me away gently, then turned away, sobbing. Applejack nodded her hat to me, which said more than word ever could for her.

Cadance and Shining Armour both held me, much like Rarity had, though they she'd tears silently.

Both sister princesses bowed their heads to me, trying to keep their faces stoic, but I saw the pain in their eyes at losing a relative to such a horrible world.

Grandmother looked at me with tears in her eyes. She stepped forward and embraced me in her holepoked forelegs. "Even though, at first, I hated you, granddaughter, know that I could never be more proud of you for doing this," she sobbed.

I returned her embrace. She and I had become much closer after Father had died. He had fought in the war, and paid with his life.

The last farewell was from both Spike, who was much older now, about half his original size added to his stature, my younger five-year-old unicorn brother, Dusk Shine... and my mother.

The three of them held me close and we all wept. I did not wish to leave them, the Twilight and Spike if the other world were so corrupted, I as a little worried I wouldn't be able to return them to normal. If that was the case, I would have lost both of them, twice.

"I will always be with you, my darling daughter," Mother sobbed, pulling me closer. "Even in your most darkest of hours, I will be there, even in the other me of that world, you will find me. Please, do not give up of them."

I sniffled. "I won't, Mother. I will make you proud, you here and there."

While Spike pulled away and went to comfort and be comforted by Rarity, we stayed, holding each other for several more minutes. It was only when Luna coughed did we separate and I walked up to the throne, then looked out at my family and around them.

We stood in the throne room of the Castle of the Royal Pony Sisters. It was here that the spell to transfer me through space and time would be cast.

As soon as we parted, however, Dusk cried out, running towards me, only to be held back by Shining Armour's magic.

"No!" he screamed, tears streaming down his face as he stared at me with pleading eyes. "Please, big sister! Don't go!"

I looked away from him, forcing the tears and sobs down as I turned to look at Luna.

"Remember," Luna shouted over Dusk's cries, tears welling in her own eyes and her voice cracking slightly, "as soon as you arrive in the other world, this will be the focal point. As soon as you have materialized there, the magic leftover from Nightmare Moon shall be drawn out and into you. Control it, harness it and it will aid you in that world."

I nodded, closing my eyes, waiting for the spell to be cast, doing my best to try and ignore my LBBFF's cries and pleas for me to stay, and focused on what needed to be done,

One of the preparations for this mission was that Luna had used her magic to draw the dormant remnants of Nightmare Moon's magic that had been left behind in the castle after the Elements defeated her and freed Luna. Now, because of that magic flowing through my body, when I arrived in the other world, in the exact same place as I was standing in this one, it would be awakened and drawn to me.

This magic as crucial for the mission, for it would give me the strength to fight the magic imprisoning all the males and females of that world. My Changeling magic would give the ability to go into their minds, but it was the magic remnants of Nightmare Moon that would give me the strength to fight the spells binding them.

I felt the tingle of magic and opened my eyes to see Celestia, Luna, Cadance and my mother's horns aglow, their magic all combining, coalescing around me. I saw them all for one final moment and heard my mother's cry of "I will always love you!" before I ft my body twisting, morphing, the world around me spinning and churning... before everything went black.

___________________________________________________________

Everything hit me at once. My height was larger, my chest fall bouncier, my hands... I stopped and studied them. Lyra had shown me a spell that had made hand-like hooves, to give me a sense for how they work, but these felt far more intricate.

I did not get to continue my observations for long, however. At once I sensed a familiar magic and looked to see myself in the same room, the ponies I cared for no longer there, blue, night sky coloured tendrils of magic seeping out from the flower and slowly moving towards me.

I smirked. Like I'd give them the chance. At once, my eyes glowed with a white light and I held my arms outstretched. The wisps reacted at once, shooting to me, pouring into my chest, arms, legs, every part of my new body.

I winced as, like before, I was assaulted by the thoughts and memories Nightmare Moon had during her last moments before the Elements defeated her and freed Luna. Her hatred for my mother and her plans to make her suffer, her plans to make all of Equestria suffer once she was finished...

I shook the memories away, and focused. At once, the whisps of magical energy spiralled into the air, being suck into me like a whirlpool. Within moments, all the magic was gone, stored within my body.

I stumbled for a moment, adjusting to the double amounts of Nightmare Moon's magic, before I gained control of myself and breathed.

I flexed my new hands. They felt better than hooves. In a way, I was glad to have these in this world than my hooves.

Now I had to check out the rest of my new body. The distance from my neck to my nethers was farther now. Interesting, though not as much as the lumps that had formed on my chest.

I had known they would appear, my old world's Discord had shown me what the beings of this world were like, so it wasn't like I didn't think they'd appear on my when I arrived. These were just a different version of teats, like all mares have.

What I did not expect was their size. They weren't as big as my mother's, half that at best, but there were so bouncy and round, I couldn't help but hold them to test them. I could see the teat, I believe it's called a nipple to this world, was in the centre and stood out pink against my brown fur.

"My Queen," a raspy voice said from beside me.

I got ahold of myself, moved my hands away from my new breasts and glanced around to see thousands of eyes staring at me, waiting to know my orders.

I took a deep breath and looked to the Praetorian standing beside me. Though he remained invisible, as his part of them normally do unless instructed to or necessary. "All of you are to remain out of the way. This will be dangerous as it is and I do not wish to endanger any of you, for we are all of our kind this world has now."

I felt them all agree through the hive mind and they all backed away, giving me room.

I took another deep breath, followed by another one, before I focused, my eyes glowing white as I channeled the magic within me, reaching out to one who needed help and whose help we needed.

Night sky coloured magic flowed from my hands and spiraled in front of me, intensifying in speed and power for several moments, before dissipating, followed at once by a loud (in my opinion very overly exaggerated) gasp.

Discord flopped onto the ground, looking groggily at me, his eyes crossed, much like Derpy's.

Discord shook his head, coming to his senses and looked at me, very confused. "Who in Celestia's name are you?" He blinked. "Wait. How did you summon and free me? That shouldn't be possible after..." His face fell and he looked to the ground. "... after what I've brought on us all."

I frowned, stepping down from the place I had arrived at and stood in front of the draconequus. Out of all those from my own world, he as the only one whose form was no different. Then again, he was already sort of an anthropomorphic creature, wasn't he.

"Discord," I said in firm voice, like Grandmother had taught me to when announcing, "I, Autum Breeze, Queen of the Changelings, require your help to save Equestria."

Discord looked at me, we were nearly the same height, I was barely having to lift my head to look him in the eye, blinked, then looked away. "What help could I be?" he asked, his voice filled with sorrow. "The caribou have the power to stop my every move. There's nothing I can do. I... I..."

He buried his face in his hands and bawled. "Please, forgive me, Fluttershy! I never meant for this to happ-he-hen!"

Sadness filled me as I watched him, a broken being, with no hope for redemption in his own mind.

I clenched my fists and gritted my teeth. That may be what he thinks, but that is not the case.

"Discord!" I nearly shouted, causing him to eep and freeze (literally) in place. "This is no time for wallowing around in self pity!" I pointed at him. "For my plans to free our world to succeed, we will need your assistance."

Discord unfroze, staring at me like I was a madpony. "Free it?" He shook his head. "Do you not know what has happend? Celestia and Luna are defeated, the Elements of Harmony's bearers broken, with only two keeping their minds proper. Stallions and all males now see females as toys, things to use. The caribou rule this and so much more." He looked down. "And I... I helped them do it."

I nodded. "I know. The you from my own world saw everything."

This caused him to look at me again, confusion and intrigue now playing across his mismatched features. "The me from... where?"

I explained to him my mission, how we had learned from our own world's Discord the horrors that had befallen this world and how I as here to stop it.

Once I was finished, he blinked, scratching his head. "You plan on doing this all by yourself?"

I shook my head and every Changeling present made themselves visible, filling the room with black with green dots staring from all around.

Discord yelped in surprise, his eyes going wide, before he turned to me. "Changelings? Here? How?"

I explained my exact origins, what that meant in my world and what it now meant in this world.

Discord nodded, stroking his goatee. "Interesting. So the Twilight of your world married and had a child with a Changeling." He smirked. "Never knew you swung that way, Princess." He sighed, looking to me. "But my chaos magic is barely what it once was. I don't know how I could possibly help you."

I shook my head. "We don't need your chaos magic." I grinned. "All we need, is for you to plant the seed that will sprout the downfall of King Dainn."

A glint appeared in his eyes and he leered. "Just tell me what to do and it shall be done," he bowed, "my Queen."

I scowled. "For starters, never use that tone when speaking with me, draconequus. You may have learned you lesson from this, but do not think I will merely forget what your betrayal has done to those I care about."

He faulted, slight worry crossing his face as my Changelings hissed. "I..." He gulped. "I promise not to do so again."

I nodded, then told him what to tell Dainn. Which each word I uttered, his smile grew and grew, turning into a sneer. "Of, that is too perfect." He frowned. "But, the Crystal Heart is corrupted. It... It's now the Crystal Cock. And Cadance is the only one who can use it, but she is already amount those that do not care about their past lives now. How can you use it's magic when the only pony use can harness it will not be able to so and return it to light?"

I shook my head. "Shining Armour's plans might be horrible, but it gives us the chance we need."

It took a few seconds for that to process through his brain, before his eyes went wide. "Skyla!"

I nodded, trying to hold back a scowl. "While I detest that he plans not only to make her a sex slave from birth, but will obviously remove her horn and wings so she knows no different, Skyla's heart will be pure and innocent at her birth. With that light in her heart, she will be able to activate the Crystal Heart and free all those under it's corrupted form's influence."

Discord folded his arms, shaking his head. "It's a gamble, as far as I can see. How will you fix the heart? It's pieces that were removed to shape it into it's new figure are hidden deep in a vault in the Crystal Castle in the Empire."

I smirked and nodded to a group of Changelings. They nodded and were gone. They would split into teams, one team would watch over Cadance and Shining Armour. Both to keep tabs on them and to ensure they would be able to save Skyla from her parents when she is born.

The second team would find and gather the shards of the Crystal Heart that had been broken of during it's reshaping and keep them safe until the time was right, being sure not to physically or magically touch them, so as to avoid possible corruption themselves.

And the third team would find and keep watch over the Crystal Cock, ensure that it's whereabouts were known at all times and, when the time was right, would take it and bring it to me so that I could repair it, using Nightmare Moon's magic to pull it back together and give it the shape of a heart again.

I looked to the rest of my Changelings and nodded. They all vanished. Many were off to ensure I had eyes all over Equestria, while others would remain invisible and nearby, should I require their assistance or protection.

With that done, I turned to Discord. "Ready to make up for your... let's call it a mistake?"

He nodded, then bowed to me, earnestly this time, before disappearing with a popping sound.

I sighed and headed out of the castle. I needed to find a place to stay, to share my plans with those I knew I could trust. I was off to Sweet Apple Acres.

Author's Note
