Peace and Harmony...

Old Friends...

Previous Chapter

You sit down on a log next to a camp fire with the pink ball of fluff sitting in your lap, and Queen Chrysalis across from you. Your injury has been fully healed, but you kept the bandages on anyways

"So, Chryssie. Who's this? I don't remember seeing him/her last time I saw you?"

"Oh...that's Fluffle Puff. Only thing she does is love. Has an unconditional love for all things living.......and tacos..."

You stifle a giggle. "Perfect for your horde."

"Yeah...well.........about that...."

"What happened? You're still the changeling queen, right?"

"Well..."

"Right?!"

"I still am...technically...but... They're......they're gone....... And it's all thanks to Twilight Sparkle and her wretched friends!"

You facepalm. "Oh no... Finally, I get the opportunity for vengeance, and all because of some stupid bookworm, the princesses are still alive and ruling!"

Chryssie moves over and sits next to you, wrapping you in an embrace with her wing. "I know. I know. I was hoping for similar results...only for my cover to be blown by that stupid Twilight Sparkle and the elements of harmony!"

An idea pops into your head. "Hey...remember how we wanted the elements locked in the dungeons for they're entire lives?"

She nods.

"Well.......I'm sort of......friends with one of 'em."

Queen Chrysalis gasps, but before she can reply, you stop her.

"I mean, she saved my life. Fluttershy. If it weren't for her, I would be dead right now. So, I was thinking...send the rest into the dungeon for life...while Fluttershy can be our servant."

"Hmm.....good thinking..... Hey! Remember about the one I told you about who was the element of generosity?"

You nod.

"Well.....I find it funny, really. She acts like a stuck up brat whenever I'm in disguise and sneaking around Ponyville, and whoever heard of a generous brat? A brat, the element of generosity? See any similarity there?"

You laugh. "Nope. A generous brat! Whoever heard of such a thing even being alive?"

The two of you laugh for a good while before you look up at the sky. "Gettin' pretty late, don't ya think? Think it's about time to go to sleep?"

"Wait...I thought you had a home already...a cave by a stream."

"Not anymore...............some dumb guards invaded.......and I.....I don't want to talk about it..."

You set Fluffle Puff on the ground next to the log, and somehow, she sinks into her own fur, becoming only a ball of fluff. You lay on your back next to the fire, Chrysalis lying down next to you.

"Don'tcha think that a fire would give away out position?" You ask.

She nods. "Yeah...probably....but I wouldn't think to much of it. We can go back to my place if you want. It's a bit more concealed there if ya know what I mean."

You sit up. "Okay things just got awkward I think I'm going for a quick walk. BY MYSELF." You say as you grab a stick, light the end of it on fire, and use your DIY torch to go out in the woods for a quick walk. And by, 'a quick walk', you walked out ten feet, shook your DIY torch, depleting the flames, and walked around the campfire in a circle a couple times before coming back and lying back down next to Chrysalis.

"Did you have a nice walk?" She asks.

"Well it would have been nice if you didn't make things awkward. But other than that...pretty good."

"So walking in a circle is 'pretty good'?"

You stare at her, shocked. "How did you..."

"Changelings have night vision. Why do you think we usually meet up around dark?"

You shrug. "Because you like dark stuff? I dunno."

You close your eyes after saying 'Goodnight' to your best friend. she responds with a 'Goodnight' as well, and pretty soon, both of you are sleeping.


THE NEXT MORNING


You wake up, unable to move. all you see is black. You struggle for a while before you realize what has happened. Quickly prying yourself free from Chryssie's snuggle, you look around for that pink furball. You find her, and her fluff is tangled in a couple of branches above Chryssie's head.........and she's upside down..... You laugh as Fluffle Puff simply stares at you sticking her tongue out.

"Pbhhhhtd!"

"What?" You ask her.

"Pbhhhhhhhhtd!!!"

"How am I supposed to know what that means?"

"Pbhhhhhhhhtd!!!!"

"I don't understand!!!!!! I. DON'T. SPEAK. YOUR. LANGYOOOWAAAAAAGE."

"PBHHHHHHHHHHHHTD!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Do you want me to get you down or something?!" You practically shout. She gasps, smiles, and quickly nods her head.

You clench your fists and take a few deep breaths, trying to calm down. You head over to Fluffle Puff and break several small branches caught in her fur. However, when you try to pull them out, the branches instead are sucked into Fluffle Puff's fluff. You decide not to question it and start pulling her off the large branch entangled in her fluff. When you get the branch out of her fluff, she lands right on top of Chryssie, who starts snuggling and cuddling her tight. You don't question that, either, and just sit down on a log, staring at the thin trail of smoke coming from where the fire once roared, waiting for Chrysalis to wake up.

After a while of waiting, you hear a rustle come from some bushes. You lean over to Chrysalis and whisper in her ear.

"Chryssie! Chryssie! Somethings here! C'mon get up!" Nothing.

You look back over to the bushes. Then, just then, an injured changelings limps from behind them. You practically shout in Chryssie's ear this time.

"CHRYSSIE!!! THERE IS A CHANGELING RIGHT HERE!!! THEY'RE NOT DEAD!!! GET UP AND LOOK FOR YOURSELVES COME ON AND LOOK ALREADY!!!!"

She thrusts herself up and throws Fluffle Puff away from her. "What?!" She stares dumbfounded at the injured changeling. Chrysalis then had an idea.

"John! I have a plan! You go and try to see Fluttershy again and try to get the tohers to accept you in Ponyville while I'll make an army!"

"How are you going to do tha- okay I'm leaving now goodbye!" You walk away for a few seconds before coming back. "Where, exactly, is her home?"
