"Guess that is what happens when you mess with things you shouldn't"

It wasn't the first time Twilight thought of that particular phrase, it was one thing she thought quite some time ago the first time she messed things up. But now, after the last 'slip up', it was a even more common for her to have that thought, in fact she did so once a day, probably twice, thrice or even more. Let's be truthful here; she had been doing it for faaaar longer than this, even before she had her first big mess up done. A mistake here, a spell she shouldn't use there, messing things up BOTH here and there when it came to being friendly or simply a friend when she arrived at Ponyville.

Why was she a princess HERE again? Oh yea, groomed by Celestia, matured by perfection.

Twilight wanted to facehoof so hard at that thought, but right now she was unable to. She had her doubts before, but once she started going around with the help of her castle's map, helping ponies, gryphons, minotaurs, dragons and any other creature and species that the map told her to, her doubts went away, for a time. Then her own cutie mark started floating around Ponyville and confusion hit her like a train. It wasn't as hard and it didn't hurt as much, but you get what she means I am sure.

Yea, that adventure had her in the hospital a couple of weeks, but it was informative and exciting!

Well, whatever, she was just stalling for time until Nurse Redheart left. Twilight held back a groan as the friendly mare checked her everywhere to ensure she was perfectly fine. She had been cooped up within the library for a month, and while the problems hadn't started until a week ago her friends had been worried about her for far longer than that even when they were able to visit regularly to check on her.

And yes, you heard right: The library. Twilight had loved to have her roots returned to her, pun totally intended, but she felt bad for her old home, and you could call it a friend in a sense, so she had used some regenerative healing magic to bring the Golden Oaks Library back to Ponyville.

Oh she had been so happy when she got the spell right! True that the books and furniture had not returned, and she had been mighty upset about the books mind you, but while she had her castle and she had ended up enjoying it... eeeeeh... There were hardly any princes like things to do, in fact she had been pretty direct when she told Celestia that there was no need of another alicorn at the moment unless she had to go and help somepony. Celestia had looked at her in a bit of a downcast way, but she had ended up conceding the point to Twilight, at least for now.

So yea, while she had her castle, and she liked it now that her friends had helped make it feel more like a home, she was a librarian, and a librarian required her library. In this case Twilight also wanted it for her basement, which had remained untouched, as miraculous as it sounds, to run tests and use some of her magic powered machines to analyze the whole of Ponyville after the map told her that she was needed here.

That is how her month long seclusion started, but it didn't explain WHY she hadn't gone out for a whole month except if necessary.

"Cough once, please" Redheart, despite Twilight's obvious displeasure, was still being more than nice as she always was.

Twilight complied and sighed. Usually she was more than happy to be in tip top shape, she needed to be to keep up with her studies, stay up late reading and help anypony in need, but right now Redheart's visit was bothersome.

"It is okay, you don't seem to have any kind of health related problem that I can find" Redheart gave Twilight a concerned look "Not without you coming over to the hospital for a full checkup at least, and you WILL come so we make sure you are alright"

Twilight rolled her eyes at that. It had taken months for some of the ponies to stop calling her princess, but the hospital staff had been the first ones to toss formality out of the window when she first got hurt, scolding her like they had done with any other pony when they went ahead with reckless, or stupid, ideas. She was thankful for that, but right now she wished for the nurse to just bow and leave.

"I told you that I am doing something very important" Twilight gave a little sigh "I am sorry Nurse Redheart, I know I am a bit cranky and I don't want to give you any wrong impressions, but I really need to keep up with my work"

"So do I" The nurse gave Twilight a gentle smile with a firm glare "I am serious Twilight; you do not seem to have any kind of problems, but you seem way too stressed for your own good, and we all know what happens when you are stressed" Twilight looked away with a blush as Redheart gave her a knowing look "I plead you come for a checkup soon my dear, I can't in good conscience let you go without at least a quick one after so long without going out once. You aren't as used to be like this as you once were, and alicorn or not you may still suffer a bit from being stuck in here for too long"

Defeat was never kind to Twilight, even less so when she was defeated AND had something on her mind that she wanted to do. She could be as gracious as anypony else, but that didn't mean she didn't grunt and complain when something didn't go according to plan. In fact she was a sticker for schedules to the point of having worldwide famous temper tantrums, and that was something that not even Celestia could deny (In fact she laughed her flank off more often than not when someone asked if it was true).

"Fiiiiiiiine" Twilight grouched from her sitting position "I needed to check alongside somepony else anyway, so I won't be able to stay here without getting some air now and then if I want him to be alright"

"Oh?" Redheart perked at that "Something I should know? Because it sounds like I SHOULD know about that" The mare narrowed her eyes at Twilight. She could be nice, pretty, gentle and a dear in every sense of the word, but Redheart could be a total monster if someone bothered her patients or evaded medical care when they needed it.

"Of course not" Twilight laughed slyly as she saw Redheart's glare "I would never keep a patient for you, princess or not, I do remember how Rainbow ended up after that little event"

"You better" Redheart snorted, still incensed about that day.

"Let's say he is... new, in quite a few ways" Twilight purposely avoided as much of that minefield as she could "If I don't find anything else today then the whole month will be up" But that part was completely true "Even I can't keep this up forever because, as you said, I got used to going around more than this" Though the real reason was something else.

"I will hold you to that" Redheart nodded with finality "You have an appointment on Monday, nine thirty, don't be late since I don't know how complex a companion you will bring"

With that said, and a nod from her future patient, Redheart made for the door, leaving Twilight alone. Once she left, night coming in fast by now, the only thing that Twilight wanted to do was to sigh, rub her face until this headache was gone and then close down and sleep until Sunday was here. A single day before she handled THAT particular problem was just not enough, but Redheart would hound her to the end of the world if she missed it.

Like she didn't have bigger problems than that!

With a bright flash of green flames said problem became apparent. Not a single pony would be out today, not with tomorrow being Sunday, specifically a sunny and vocational Sunday, much like every summer weekend was in Ponyville unless something came up. Even Applejack would be resting by now instead of working, she had promised to go with Applebloom to the lake so they could have some time together after all.

A time of peace, comfort and FUN that she had to turn down because she needed to change every six hours, at the latest, or she would get a massive migraine that kicked all known migraines in the flank, hard. She wasn't even able to enjoy reading because she was so nervous and way too worried to go through her favorite books, even the new ones didn't keep her mind from the problem.

It had been a week since Twilight first changed into this... alternate version of herself, if you wanted to call it that. She was not much different than what anypony knew her as, except for the holes on her mane, tail and legs, as well as the fact that she had fangs (For self defense, no need for meat, as she had made sure to write on her notes) and the weird feeling in her horn whenever she changed and it lacked any of those holes. It was always the same form, but the horn sometimes just... stayed between what an unicorn (or alicorn in her case) and a changeling was supposed to have. The only real weird feeling came from her wings, which she still feel as weird in the first place, only to have then exchanged for gossamer ones.

Yea, Twilight the changeling, Twilight the mutant, Twilight the FREAK. It had such a NICE ring to it you know? Because that darned thought alone didn't give her enough of a headache as it was.

She was happy that Spike had decided to go and have a few months 'off' from being her assistant this summer. Twilight knew that they were like brother and sister, she had tried her best to make it so, if not a 'mother and son' like bond, but lately it had been like he was little more than an employee from time to time, and if there was one thing Twilight didn't want, it was that. When she had been told by the map that she had to stay here instead of going with her parents and enjoy some free time Spike had all but pleaded her to go, so she had let him off to enjoy himself for a change.

But, thinking about it, she had to admit that it would be nice to have Spike here. Her little brother would have made this so much bearable, even if she was sure that Spike would have freaked out worse than her when Buzzkill appeared at their front door. In fact she was beyond sure that it would have ended in a small catastrophe, but it would have been fun.

Screaming at the changeling's face in the middle of the night had NOT been fun.

Now, hitting him square in the muzzle with a table and watching him make a face before collapsing, that had been fun once she played it on her mind after the fact. He didn't laugh much, but Twilight was sure Rainbow Dash would have loved it immensely, probably alongside Applejack.

But back to Buzzkill.

Twilight grunted at that thought. Yes, back to Buzzkill, because for as much as Twilight wanted to rearrange the whole library once more to forget about him, she could not. At this point in time she would love to just forget that she found him two weeks ago, that they worked together for a long and excruciating week and that he... no, it wasn't his fault, it was her own because, as always, she had to test everything and get every single bit of data and she could NOT accept not being told of something.

Do you know that saying? The one about 'curiosity killed the cat'? Well, in this case it is 'curiosity got Twilight to morph into another bucking species'. And yes, YES, she cursed, she cursed and almost broke down in tears when that happened when it was her own damn fault for being nosy, impatient and way too curious for her own good.

You know what happened? No, probably not, so let's make a more important and pertinent question: Why did Buzzkill come here? Because Chrysalis was planning to take over little old Ponyville, again, but in a different way. 'How?' you may also ask. Well, it is simple.

Not every pony in Ponyville was what they seemed to be.

Yea, laugh it up, but Twilight didn't mean HER. She had gone over old records that she had asked from Celestia shortly after Buzkill arrived and told her of a little something. They were basically birth dates, family trees and a few other things that she needed to check on some of the ponies to see which ones could be lying, or didn't know that they were something else. Oh? You wonder how they could not know when Twilight felt such pain if she was in her original pony form for too long? Simple: the change wasn't meant for alicorns because they are too complex... And the mix was supposed to be handled physically, no magic.

*** A week prior ***

"The mix is ready"

The basement was well illuminated, as always. True that it had been expanded quite a lot since Twilight had returned the library to its original state, mostly because she wanted to have a few things from the castle readily available if necessary, but it was mostly to make a second house underground as well as a bigger laboratory in case she needed it. Right now it was the lair of her latest roommate: The specialized changeling alchemist Buzzkill.

Twilight had learned that while all changelings could look the same, the 'vanilla' or 'drone' appearance that was by now famous over Equestria, they usually had an individual form they designed for themselves as the first step to learn how to change shape at will and with proficiency. Buzzkill didn't know how to change anything about him, and this was because he was a specialized drone, the aforementioned 'alchemist' subtype.

First and foremost: Buzzkill was slightly smaller than most 'average' drones, which was one of the two things that could difference him from the rest. The other? He needed glasses, like, seriously. Completely blue eyes with pinprick white dots that are supposed to be incredibly better than normal eyes? Well, in Buzzkill's case he didn't see much better than the average pony, in fact he had worse eyesight. So other than being slightly smaller and need glasses, what made him special?

Changelings don't get cutie marks, normally (unless they stay as a pony for too long), but they have a call, a craving, some kind of 'love' for at least one kind of work that they can focus or do better than others. In most cases it is nothing more than a great boon for the team they are in when they get a better drone, but when they have specialized drone the boon increases incredibly, to the point of doubling the whole team's efficiency. This, however, poses a problem for the drone as their innate magic, used for transformation, feeding and many other spells, is mainly redirected to empower their special skills.

Simply put? Buzzkill was good at making potions, and he could do other things, but he was ONLY GOOD at alchemy.

Problem is, Buzzkill wasn't exactly the smartest changeling. Sure, he was smart, but much like any other pony would be considered smart. He was good, but not the best, which is why he sucked at explaining things. That, and he was usually daydreaming, doing silly things or just uninterested in the more intellectual aspects of his work unless something caught his attention.

"Good, now do you mind telling me what it does?" And to Twilight it meant that Buzzkill just didn't care to explain things.

The basement's laboratory area was big and well prepared for Twilight's experiments... and the occasional explosion. There were a few marks that showed either her or Spike's form surrounded by soot and other substances that not even magic could clean in one go, that, or they had left an imprint so strong that it would just need to decay naturally. Usually, and I do mean USUALLY, Twilight knew what she was doing, but today was special.

"Wait... didn't I tell you already?" The drone rubbed the back of his head for a few second "I am sure I did"

"Not really" Twilight shook her head, her left eye almost twitching as she reminded him once more that yes, he hadn't told her "You did explain WHY you were here, however, much like you explained what you needed for three doses of this, but not what it DOES"

"Oh, okay" Buzzkill chuckled. For a small thing he did have a bit of a deep voice, and he was way stronger than he looked, not as much as a normal pony, as changelings are more magically inclined than even unicorns, but incredibly weak compared to most ponies. Still, Buzzkill sounded like he should be Celestia's height with a load of muscle on him "Do you want me to try and sound smart?"

Twilight gave him a deadpan look that simply said 'Really?' before sighing "I have been waiting for a WEEK, so yes, do explain"

"Hmm... I really thought I told you, but okay!" It was just so weird to see him so chipper all the time. He was like this after he woke up the first day, or well, night, and he had gotten a face full of table "What did I tell you was going to happen?"

"Well, you said that there are many changelings that left the hive, and quite a few that disappeared as larvae because they were 'defective'" Buzzkill nodded on both accounts, which made Twilight shudder at the thought of little ones being pushed way because they weren't... 'right' "Canterlot, Manehattan, Cloudsdale and many other cities have a few of these changelings that have left to seek a peaceful coexistence, or were found as kids, but they are quite few compared to Ponyville changelings, a fact that queen Chrysalis wanted to exploit" She hummed for a second "Why is that?"

"Dunno" When Buzzkill shrugged with a smile, Twilight just smashed her head against the table. Experiment be damned, the drone was so dense sometimes! "I think it is because Ponyville is close to the safest area of the Everfree Forest. We can go around he forest in small groups and most creatures don't approach us, unlike they would approach ponies, so getting to Ponyville or out of the forest and close to civilization is easy, at least it is how I got here" He shrugged again "That, and while ponies from Ponyville are scaredy cats, they tend to be nice once they are used to you"

Twilight opened her mouth to counter that last bit but she closed it in time, thinking it over as she lifted her head from the table "Well, yea, most of Ponyville is nice, minus some ponies being night insufferable when it comes to certain things..."

"Yea, bigger cities don't have ponies this nice, and even with a few bad apples here and there, changelings back home say this is a good place to get food regularly" Buzzkill chuckled, rubbing his belly "You always give nice emotions, most the time at least, so it would be impossible for me to go hungry even if I tried"

"That makes me wonder... If you don't feed just on love, why go for only that emotion?" That part had been an interesting one to learn about.

"Because love is one of the few emotions that needs to be given freely and unadultered to work as intended for us" Buzzkill seemed to say those words the same way you would to a kid. Twilight was not amused "There are different kinds of love, much like there is many types of anger, jealousy, friendship, etc, but pure love is like a boost of strength, much like magic amplifiers for unicorns"

"Well, that makes sen..."

"And it tastes like chocolate" The poor table was going to get wrecked soooo soon "So yea, love is not the only thing, but it is the BEST thing, and in most cases most changelings would give any other emotion away in exchange of love, so of course some of us become... crazy for it" That did make Twilight grunt "It is not an addiction" Then relax "But it works for everything: Not only for pure power, but also healing, long lasting food and to enhance magic so we can do almost everything without burning excessive amounts of our stored resources, like we would do with a negative emotion" And there it went again. At least it wasn't that bad "So of course the queen thought it would be safe to... well, get a permanent source this time, instead of hit and run tactics"

"Why do you make so much sense sometimes and none the rest of the time?" Twilight grunted in exasperation "I swear you are like Pinkie Pie sometimes"

"Don't know why, I just roll with the flow" Buzzkill let out a happy chirp.

"Whatever" For once Twilight swore that she sounded like Rainbow Dash "What does the potion do then? How could it help Ponyville? I think I have waited long enough and the intrigue is killing me"

"Because asking me about everything while taking notes hasn't occupied you this past week?" That did make Twilight blush and chuckle a bit "Thought so"

Twilight had to concede the point to the drone "Okay, so I lost focus now and then, but now I am asking you and I NEED an answer"

"Good enough" Buzzkill poked his tongue out, showing how childlike he could be when he wanted "As to what it does? Simple: It makes you a changeling"

"WHAAAAAAAAAAT?!"

"By the empress you can rival the queen when you want" Buzzkill groused as he tried to regain his left ear's hearing capabilities, or at least calm the buzzing with one hoof "The potion is a mix of pheromones, alchemic reagents, some DNA drops carefully monitored by the equipment here" He pointed at the complex apparatus in front of them, undisturbed by Twilight's repeated head bashing whenever Buzzkill killed her patience with his antics "It was an old formula made in case some ponies wanted to join the changelings, or in case the queen was unable to give birth to more of us. As far as I heard it was used only once, maybe twice, but it was a very, very long time ago"

"And this helps HOW?" Twilight growled at the drone with murder written all over her face.

"Simple: We can make another queen and show the hive that they don't have to hide anymore" Twilight's eyes bulged until they threatened to pop out of their sockets "Hear me out: This potion is reversible, it is not dangerous at all"

"But... you said it was used before" Her confusion made Buzzkill chuckle.

"Yea, to turn a changeling into a normal pony, permanently" Once more Twilight found herself staring "Of course the changeling probably turned back, thus the second use of the potion, but the obvious thing is that this would make a pony turn into a changeling, a mirror of their selves if they were like I, or the rest of the hive, is. This special mix" He pointed at the end of their little contraption "Has been mixed to perfection to ensure that the end result is the opposite to our queen"

Buzzkill got up from his seating position to move towards the vial that housed the second potion he had made. The first one, stored in the fridge as of now, was the base potion used for the change, as far as the records showed, but this one... this one, colored deep purple with a hint of green swirling about, had some essence extracted from Chrysalis herself. You have no idea what the little drone had to do to get it, nor was he willing to let anyone know. This little potion would give anypony the power of an alicorn, so to speak, if it remained unmolested until the right time.

"With this a single pony would have the same commanding presence as Chrysalis, but unlike her, said pony would be unable to control any drone unless given permission. With this little thing it would be possible to show the rest of the changelings that a queen does not need to force their will on them, that they can live amongst ponies without fear and that ponies don't need to fear us in return" Buzzkill lifted the vial with both hooves, looking at it with care "My greatest creation, and the one chance to make sure my hive doesn't end starved because Chrysalis won't stand to reason with the rest of the world"

"If the changelings gave their allegiance to another queen" Twilight half whispered, just loud enough for Buzzkill to hear "They wouldn't be under Chrysalis' control if she went for another attack, right?" He nodded "And if she came here to see a small hive of changelings living peacefully amongst ponies, then her changelings would be hard pressed to believe that conquest was the only way"

"Exactly" Buzzkill nodded "But those that have lived the longest around ponies do not work the same way"

"What do you mean?" Twilight blinked a few times, confused "They are still changelings, right?"

"Yes and no" Buzzkill left the vial atop of the table, fixated on the safe platform that had kept it away from an untimely end by Twilight's exasperation "The larvae changed into a pony form, original or not, and have had no need to change ever since, maybe they did NOT know how to change, while those that left have been ponies for so long that not even the will of the queen could win over them... unless she visited them personally and subdued them"

"That is why there were a few ponies missing from Canterlot for a few days" Twilight mussed aloud "The control didn't last long I suppose?"

"They weren't blasted too far away" Buzzkill commented with a shrug "They were more ponies in mind than changelings, so the effects from the attack were minor, in some cases not even the queen could control them, so the blast didn't affect them either. Chalk it to being captured and no one would suspect much, if anything, at all" There was a moment of silence before Buzzkill dropped the bomb "But if the queen had subdued them completely, instead of going for as many as she could find as fast as she could do it, then they would have reverted, which is what she is planning on doing here in a couple of months once she is ready"

"Wouldn't it be the same if this new queen did it?" Twilight's worry just increased at the possible answer.

"Not really" He shook his head "This would not change a pony into Chrysalis, just another queen. Chrysalis is not a bad queen, but she is manipulative, authoritarian and a bit too power hungry. If another personality was to control a swarm, say somepony nice and caring, they would be unable to do what Chrysalis does on a daily basis. This, of course, includes controlling others against their will"

"So you would be basically hoping for the best pony possible" The deadpan was strong with this one "I will be the first to admit that ponies are generally very good, even those that are 'bad', in most cases, but how do you expect to find a good candidate?"

"Well, Ponyville is small, but not that small" Buzzkill chuckled "I am sure we could... what are you doing?"

Twilight's horn flared as magic pooled around the room "I want to see something first"

Buzzkill noticed that magic surrounded the vial "TWILIGHT! The mix must not have magic anywhere near it! Not like this! Don't...!"

"This is too good an alternative" Twilight huffed "I want to believe in you, but many potions can have disastrous effects, or much more potent than expected, some even explode when you take the cork out of their vials!" She lifted the vial at last, forcing it close to her as Buzzkill trembled "I will take a sample, study it and then we'll talk"

"TWILIGHT! DON'T OPEN THAT!"

Of course she opened it.

"It will be just a drop! It is not like I... will... drink... it"

The smell was overpowering.

It was hard to describe it, in fact she was unsure of how to describe anything about what she felt at the moment. It was a mix of feeling giddy and ready, even horny, like in heat, but also it made her salivate, lick her lips and focus on the potion, as if hungry, starved even. Sweet, sweet sugary taste filling her mouth, her nostrils, her every pore, it was as if she could literally feel the flavor of something that was CALLING for her, that BEGGED to be...

"Twilight! Snap out of it!" Buzzkill broke the spell for a moment, trying to shake her "Magic makes the mix unstable! Let it go! There is enough for another pot-ACK!"

She had wanted to put the cork back, cold sweat forming on her brow, but instead the lust for the draught had made her push Buzzkill away with a smirk on her lips as she moved the vial around, letting that aroma float around her as she sighed in blissful happiness. She wasn't sure what was making her do this, but she didn't care one bit. What she did was take a look at the vial, grin, lift it to her mouth and...

*** Present ***

It was completely unproductive, obnoxious and it didn't help her headache, but slamming her head against the wooden wall seemed to be another thing she had been doing a lot of, at least recently. Every time she thought back to that moment Twilight felt like a complete idiot. Had it been worry the one thing that made her take the vial away from its place? No, not it wasn't, not completely anyway. She DID believe in Buzzkill, at least she believed his words, but she wanted to know everything about the potion and Buzzkill seemed so proud of it that she had been sure he wouldn't let her check it up before the deed was done.

Was it selfish of her to try and learn everything first hoof instead of just watch it happen? Yes, and it was not the first time she did something like that, but it was the first time it backfired like this. It was just... She had a thirst of knowledge, and to see Buzzkill doing something she didn't knew about, acting so flippant about it and being so childish whenever they talked. It just IRKED her.

Yes, she was not boneheaded, or proud, enough to not admit her when it was her fault. She was just hardheaded enough to do something stupid when curiosity was so great that it just got her. You'd think that after a couple years of going out on adventures and helping ponies she of all ponies would have learned to refrain from doing something stupid out of curiosity. If that is the case then you'd need some mental help, because you aren't right in the head yourself.

Now, saying that she was sorry was something she couldn't do, not in this case anyway. You see, this time there HAD been a problem she couldn't solve or take away...

"Twilight! I am hungryyyyyy!"

And it was part of the reason as to why Twilight wanted to forget Buzzkill, or better call him Buzz from now on, it would simplify things and it looked more fitting a name for him at the present.

Speaking of food; it had been made obvious that changelings that turned into a more 'pony' mindset didn't require as much love to stay alive and full, in fact it was not even noticed that they required good emotions directed at them to be 'full', though if they lacked them then they felt moody and slightly sickly. The same thing happened with Twilight, but with friends around, visiting from time to time to check on her, even with Redheart's company, she had been more than well feed as far as her new needs were concerned, though she wasn't sure how she was feeding. It was part of what made this situation look positive in a way.

Despite her displeasure at what happened her change had given her a LOT to work with, mostly in the form of notes, diagnosis, tests and whatever else she could think about. It was magical how much she could do, how much she could find and how much she wanted to know and separate fact from fiction as far as changelings went. True that she wasn't a proper changeling, mostly thanks to the magic mixing with the potion, which also was worsened by the fact that the volunteer Buzz hoped for had to be anything but a princess, like Twilight was, but this only meant more things to discover.

Indeed, for as much of a breakdown and the subsequent meltdown that she had after the transformation, Twilight was thankful. This was an one time only opportunity! Something no scholar would pass! And she had repaid this kind of help by destroying part of the laboratory and lobbing the third potion, or better say the glop of genetic material and alchemic reagents, at Buzz.

On a positive note: He didn't need emotions as food now. On a negative one: He now required meat, it had been made horribly apparent after the slurry had been done with him and his body required food to not consume itself. A quick checkup after he calmed down had told Twilight all she needed and, luckily, fish are unintelligent (in most cases) and some pegasi consumed them, so it had been easy to find and, ugh, cook. At least Buzz was an omnivore, so she wouldn't need to do that every day.

True, she didn't know how he worked, but it had been easy to learn a few things.

First: He was an extremely adaptable predator, be it herbivore, carnivore or both. Twilight wasn't as good with a magical scan as Redheart or the rest of the nurses and doctors back at the hospital, her magic was more practical in other ways, as well as some combat knowledge, but she knew enough to check for the basic things and hints. While Buzz was now hairless, he also had no chitin, but he was very nimble, had hands with thumbs, a fairly resilient body, strength only slightly inferior to a minotaur and a decent immune system. Give him enough time in a single place, maybe a few generations (if he could reproduce), and his new species could be almost tailor made for the area.

Second: Buzz was a veritable emotional mess. This was both good and bad. It was good because he could be incredibly affectionate, friendly and warm, but he could easily be hateful, angry and dangerous. While a changeling can be colder than a pony they can also be as nice, but when she checked on Buzz it was made obvious that this kind of creature he had transformed into was... volatile. He had deep emotions that could be outright brutal, lustful, sick and degenerate, something you could only find in the worst ponies, but he could also be a sweet little thing in the blink of an eye.

Suffice to say that if no pony had visited her, Twilight would have been 'full' in any case.

Third: Buzz lacked magic. Well, not exactly, but he had no natural medium to use it, which also meant he was very resilient when magic was applied to him. Alchemy worked very well, but it was obvious that he was rooted more in the physical world than the magical one. He managed to use telekinesis, but that is something that even foals can do, and seeing him guiding it with his... arm... was weird. He made a comment that sounded like 'Use the force' during his outburst when he was hungry after that little use of magic left him drained.

It had been a very trippy trip for him, or so he had said.

"TWILIIIIIIIIIGHT! I want chocolate!"

Guilt gone, lets feed the freak.

***

Her gossamer wings buzzed as Twilight sighed. Buzz was a total mess when he ate and it creped her out. It wasn't his front teeth, designed for meat, it wasn't his spindly hoo-hands, it was the fact that he was a total slob and he was doing it to bother her. He had been well mannered when he ate some regular food before his change and he was in perfect control of his faculties after the first day, so not only did he make it obvious, but Twilight could feel the fact that he was still angry at her.

Understandable when you take into account that he was forced into another form and another SPECIES altogether.

Meter eighty seven, short chestnut hair, deep blue eyes, smooth, almost hairless, brownish/cooper like skin (it basically looked like creamy coffee to her) and an overall muscular form. His muzzle had turned small and the only thing that could be considered a protrusion was a nose on his face. Without chitin his neck looked powerful and very muscular, much like his arms and legs, both of them lacking of hooves and instead having hands and feet, with the hands being incredibly dexterous and the feet very adaptable to most surfaces.

His chest was muscular, almost chiseled even, which was understandable since drones could all adopt the best of forms without complication, something that the mix probably used to make a perfect looking body. Despite all of this, all the muscles, the sharp eyes, the fast reflexes and all she had seen, Twilight couldn't help but compare Buzz to the magically powerful creature he was before.

Twilight considered him weaker than before just for that.

It was nothing strange in any case, or at least the lack of magic was not unexpected. Buzz had been more than talkative, at least to his own self as he rambled the first day after the transformation. It seemed that minotaur and diamond dog genetics were of the most adaptable out there, mixed with some of the monkey species that lived within the Everfree and that had spread nearly all over the world. Without a doubt Twilight could say that those species were the most adaptable ones out there. When the slurry hit Buzz it just mixed together with so much genetic material that it absorbed everything and made him, well...

Human.

'Sapient Hominid' in fact, as in perfectly sapient. Buzz had called himself 'super sapient hominid' or 'double sapient' or something like that. Twilight took note of one of the more catchy names 'Homo sapiens', which he then screwed with until he called himself 'human'. The name stuck and Twilight accepted the denomination because Buzz seemed to enjoy the sound of it.

The arms were obviously inherited from the minotaur, the legs from the monkeys and the muscle power from the diamond dogs if they grew as large as he was. Buzz was an amalgamation of all species, which, ironically, had helped his eyesight and muscles, but had dulled his sense of smell and magical proficiency incredibly. As a counter measure he had gained some kind of six sense, like the wild monkeys, and was able to notice when Twilight was around even when she didn't make a sound.

On a more obvious downside was that Buzz now lacked a decent night vision, but equally obvious was his minotaur like height that allowed him to rise above Twilight by nearly seventy centimeters. His strength was made apparent when she asked him to try and lift her, which he did with a single arm and without much effort. Magically speaking he was subpar, only made better by his own resistance to it, but physically speaking he could be a powerhouse.

Even then, with Buzz's apparent limits, he was also a monstrous sight as, like now, he towered above Twilight by a good sixty, if not seventy, centimeters, he was obviously much stronger than her, as he had been able to lift her from the ground like she was nothing in one occasion. Not only that, but despite not having the sharpest of senses he was quite aware whenever she tried something to analyze him from almost any distance, as if he had a sixth sense of some kind that had nothing to do with being a changeling.

If Twilight had to be sincere, Buzz scared her now. She could call him weak as far as magic went, but he was a monster.

"You look like you are going to eat me" Buzz chuckled. He was still angry at her, Twilight could feel it, but after he got himself together that anger had remained above all else, so the chuckle felt weird to her "Or do you expect me to jump you at any moment?"

"I do, yes, I can feel your anger after all" Being blunt and to the point hadn't helped Twilight much. Both of them were upset, though Twilight was like that for a different reason at the moment "But... well... I also feel... you know"

"That I am horny as if I was in heat?" Twilight nodded "Well, I am almost sure that this was the monkey DNA's doing since this body adapted and, you know, I am the ONLY ONE OF MY SPECIES RIGHT NOW!"

That stung, it physically hurt when Twilight felt a mix of anger, desperation, resignation, fear, sadness and a couple other negative feelings directed at her like a tidal wave. She understood that she had messed it up when she mixed everything with magic, heck, just using magic to levitate the vial with the potion made her own mix instable as all Tartatus! Twilight wasn't sure of how the alchemy and magic had worked together to make Buzz as he was now but...

Well, stallions were bigger, but... he had a good ten inches of something quite impressive between his legs... and she had seen him last a good ten minutes while she was shocked after he feed. The need and lust just came to him and Twilight just... stared, enthralled, wondering how a creature could last more than three minutes when mating, or rutting, sometimes didn't even go for a full sixty seconds with most species.

"That is to say that I theorize this kind of body is always ready for reproduction, like some other animals" Buzz sighed as he finally discarded the chocolate wrapping and cleaned himself. He was not a filthy creature. Absentminded? Yes, but not filthy. Twilight could say that, despite his anger, he was curious, which made him a bit like, well, like her "And of course I am angry Twilight; I came here to help, hoping that ponies were really as nice as I was told. I did not expect this mess and I sure as all Tartarus didn't expect the princess of friendship and magic to do this to me"

"My curiosity tends to get me into problems, and I tend to excuse it with whatever reason I can" Twilight lowered her ears for a moment as she looked at the ground and at her legs full of holes. With the purple carapace on her chest and back and dark purple chitin it was quite hard to excuse anything right now "It... is not the first time that something this bad happens"

"What, you mean you were a changeling before?" Buzz chuckled, earning a glare from Twilight "Hey, I can be mean too, don't tell me you didn't earn it"

"I can't deny it; I had that coming, that is the truth" Twilight gave a slow nod "But I just grew... frustrated. You were doing everything and telling me nothing, you were flippant, silly and carefree while I was worried and pent up for knowledge" She sighed as she looked around, noticing how her original cluttered basement was little more than a nice and quaint room for Buzz now... and how strong it smelled. It was pretty hard to miss how this had turned into a 'colt cave' in the last week "Now all I do is stay moody or try to study your body, or mine, while wondering what I should do to help everypony here"

"Well, we could fuck"

Twilight could swear she heard a plate breaking as her mind crashed and burned.

Technically speaking ponies are quite open sexually. It is important to know that young ones learn early, usually before their tenth birthday, or even earlier, to ensure there are no 'accidents'; they must know what it is, how it is done, the consequences, both good and bad and all that. Even in Canterlot it was impossible to not see somepony's privates from time to time, and even the most stuck up pony would need to tell their little ones what they were and what they did, otherwise problems were more than likely going to appear. Heck, Twilight knew about the bird and the bees by the time Cadance first took care of her, so she was pretty sure of what was going to happen if she helped her foalsitter hook up with her brother.

Now, while Twilight's mind was trying to cope with the offer it is important to say that she was not an angel. Let's be sincere here: She was not a virgin. While not as outgoing as, say, Applejack or Dash, Twilight had her fun, almost no mare or stallion, surely NO stallion in fact, reached adulthood as virgins. Be it family, be it friends, be it just a fling, nopony went without a little adventure in their teenage years. Either a male, a female or something in the middle, no matter what, there was always someone you could have fun with.

Of course some species didn't feel it right to have mixed relationships, or even encounters, as a whole. Most dragons, even the largest ones, could have fun with ponies and vice versa, magic did wonders in many ways, but generally speaking they were not touchy feely with other species, much like diamond dogs. Ponies were VERY open with that too, so it wasn't the fact that Buzz had asked her, it wasn't the fact that he was now what had been christened as 'human', it was the fact that he had been so blunt and so direct that he hadn't expected it from the airhead that was sitting cross-legged in front of her right now, waving his hand an inch away from her face as Twilight's ears threw up black smoke as her mind tried to process everything without burning.

"Twilight? Twilight? You have been like this for ten minutes" Ten what now? By the look of Buzz's face he wasn't joking "Seriously, am I that ugly now? I know you didn't exactly look at me like you wanted to rut me when I was a changeling, but at least now I have a gender"

"Whu... what?"

"I have a gender?" Buzz gave her a funny look "Specialized changelings stay as normal drones since birth, we may sound like a he or a she, but we don't have sexes" He pointed down at his maleness without any care or shame "This? I had nothing of the sort before"

"Oh... that is... interesting..." She was beyond flustered at this point. Indeed she was no virgin, but whenever she had done it she had... well, a bit of encouragement, or she was in heat and with pills and a spell ready to avoid a foal.

"Look Twilight, one of the things you learn in a changeling hive is that there are many ways to solve a problem and calm your anger, and one of them is angry sex" Twilight looked at Buzz with a neutral but questioning look before motioning him to go on "You know how sometimes two lovers quarrel?" She nodded, thinking back to Cadance and her brother during one of her visits "Well, in many cases a little dispute is easily forgotten, and screwing each other's brains out does wonders too!" And now she knew what the thumping was, and she had been THREE rooms away. By Celestia "Many changelings are related by blood, but we are a close knit society, more so than ponies, so we also have a lot of friction between one another. Sometimes two brothers, sisters or whatever, fight, and an easy way to just get over it without a more serious fight or a long lasting spat is fuck like rabbits until they take the anger off their system"

"Does it work?" Twilight wondered out loud, more to herself than anypony else.

"Well, last I heard. Having no gender and feeding only on emotions means I didn't have more than my mouth if I wanted to explore, and the mouth only gives pleasure to some" The mare gave him a toothy grin as her curiosity returned and the shock went away "And no, I don't particularly enjoyed using my mouth since I didn't feel almost a thing"

"I see..." She rubbed her chin for a second "But... why offer that to me? I mean..."

"Twilight, you have been focusing on me, even on your friends if what you told me is true" He snorted at that "Heck, you were worried for your life when Redheart came and you told me you could sense her approaching five minutes before she arrived! Have you tried to look at YOURSELF?"

"What do you me-eep!"

Buzz didn't beat around the bush any longer. He picked her hoof and literally pushed it between her folds. If Twilight hadn't noticed it before she did so now: She was beyond wet, in fact she had made a mess where she was sitting. It was surprising, yes, but she hadn't noticed at all, in fact she didn't feel exactly horny! It was... it was just... natural? Now that she touched herself she was starting to feel a bit hot, and it would explain some of the smell or those drops of liquid she had seen around the library after going as a changeling but... had she seriously been this needy without even taking notice?

"You want me to be on point? Then let me be like any other drone on duty for a second and be awfully direct" Buzz cleared his throat "Twilight, you are a queen, or at least a queen to be, and you are a queen because you turned into an idiot for a moment" Twilight whimpered as Buzz pulled his hand away "The pheromones, mixed with magic, attracted you to the potion, and instead of a queen in development you turned into a nearly mature queen just by ingesting it. I know I should have done the right thing and told you, but this was MY moment to try and help BOTH our species! You are a princess, you go around helping everypony, you have adventures! I stayed in the same cramped room for TWENTY YEARS doing THE SAME THING every damn day of my life!"

Twilight backed down a bit, suddenly feeling her privates ache as she was made aware of her own state "But despite all my anger and this... hormonal imbalance I feel" She stopped as Buzz gave her the most calming feeling she had ever felt from him since his change "I feel like this is my fault too, and it is made worse every time you come here and I smell you" She blushed, which made Buzz grin "I am not as sharp as I once was,; this body... lacks some of the senses I grew used to, including the feeling of emotions and stuff, though being able to eat chocolate without having a massive tummy ache is a boon. Still, I am more than capable of smelling you, and when you are in your changeling form it is impossible not to smell the 'heat' you are going through because you are the ONLY changeling you know of"

"B-but... But I know at least of another one, a friend of mine... Her name is Cheerilee and" Twilight basically sputtered as she tried to comprehend what Buzz meant.

"You are NOT sure, are you?" Twilight opened her mouth again, but as Buzz gave her a pointed look she shook her head "You are not sure, even if you know that she is a changeling thanks to the documents you got you still aren't sure if you are alone despite me being truthful with what I told you. Your mind and your body, the primal need and the hormones, are telling you that you need to procreate to safeguard your hive, or in this case do what a new queen should: Start a new one" Her pupils turned into pinpricks at that "You want to get pregnant, and your body is going to make it more and more obvious until both forms are in a heat so strong you will be unable to get out of the library without begging for sex"

"So... you want to help me?"

"And fuck you into the woodwork, you are a hot"

There was a moment of silence.

"How can you be so casual about this? We are in a world of trouble and you want to knock me up!" Twilight felt her head act up again, though by now she wasn't sure if she was just pissed, stressed or if it was something else.

"I have had this guy for a week" Buzz pointed at his member once more "And it is giving me so many weird signals I can't put it to words. You got me into this predicament, it hurt like all Tartarus, and if I do something like that again, if I try to change to what I was, I MAY very well die" He gave her a neutral look of pure resignation "Not trying to guilt trip you here because we both are to blame, but I want to get used to my whole body, and you are going to help"

She gave him a deadpan look "Don't I have a say in this?"

"Of course you do" Buzz grinned, to which she smiled "Do I screw you or do you like any stallion around here?"

"BUZZ!"

"Twilight, I am not sugarcoating it for you: You are the queen, you are a new type of changeling, even if you find the others, all the others in this little town, they will not be exactly what you are. This week is over, but before the next one comes to an end you are going to forego your other form and beg for dick it in the middle of Ponyville while intoxicating mares and stallions alike with your pheromones" The serious, matter of fact tone Buzz used was so unlike his usual goofy self that it scared Twilight.

"You are serious" Buzz arched an eyebrow at her "I mean, you are serious about me just... offering it like that?"

"I work with pheromones, genes and all that fun stuff. I know how two animals work, sapient, sentient or dumb as all get together" Buzz let out a little chuckle "There are basic instincts that work in virtually all species, and you are a species of one"

"You are a species of one too" Twilight narrowed her eyes at him.

"I also lacked a gender for as long as I have been alive. Now I have a schlong and want to use it" He shrugged like it was nothing "Come on, don't tell me you aren't curious, because I would bet everything when I say you want to 'experiment'"

Curious was not the right word for it. Twilight had a guilty pleasure, and it was simple: She liked the guard. Not because they were useful against the greatest threats, because they weren't, or because they were the sharpest tools in the shed, because, once again, they weren't, in most cases. It was because they were strong. What? Twilight had been a bookworm since she could remember, of course she would have at least a few fantasies, and a strong male giving her all she wanted was a fun one.

She would be lying if she said that she didn't like Iron Will's body when he came to Ponyville. A superficial thing, yes, because she didn't like his personality, but he was tall, strong and...

Twilight was getting flustered and worse as far as need went.

"You knew something like this would happen, right?" Buzz tilted his head at the question "You knew a new queen would be in need, or did you expect for the mix to be exactly like the changelings that have been ponies for so long?" Trying to overpower need with one's mind had worked for Twilight before. It didn't stop her from stealing glances down at Buzz's lower section, but at least she wasn't jumping at him.

He shook his head "As I told you; the transformation was supposed to be gradual over a month or two. It was supposed to mimic the hybridization that befalls a changeling that just turns into a pony 'a bit too much' for most changelings' comfort, so the answer to your question should be something close, oh I don't know: No"

Twilight hissed and let the magic envelop her, green flames flickering for a moment as she turned back into her pony form, sighing in relaxation as the apparent need just vanished, from now at least. Anger did help mask the need if nothing else.

"Awww... party popper" Buzz pouted at her trying to give his best puppy eyes.

"Look, I hardly ever do this kind of thing" Twilight got up and turned to hid the fact that she was biting her lip quite hard. While the rising tide of need had stopped there were still remnants gnawing at her mind "And I usually am in heat or get some cider to help me. I am not the shyest of ponies anymore, but I am not as blunt as YOU, nor I am in the right mind to play games"

"Hey, I could not transform, I never interacted with anything non changeling and I didn't have a gender" Buzz got on his hands and knees, approaching Twilight from behind "But I was never shy myself"

"EEP!"

Buzz had gone directly for Twilight's privates, flicking away her tail and rubbing his whole palm against the wet folds of the mare. The surprise was enough for Twilight to lose concentration and let her magic run rampant as her form changed once more.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" She hissed under her breath, trying to literally kill Buzz with her heated glare.

"Testing the grounds" Buzz replied coyly "Despite the changing ability changelings cannot procreate with other species any better than ponies, which means it is very hard, but possible" He smirked and pushed his hand up, making Twilight gasp and shiver as two fingers rubbed between Twilight's petals "But now I have so much genetic material in me that I bet I can knock up anything I want with just a few tries, or maybe in a single heat"

"I. Am. Going. To. Get. You. For. This" Twilight couldn't speak in more than ragged breaths as Buzz rubbed those fingers against her slit. They were so much better than a simple hoof! "Quit it!" She hissed without as much conviction as she wished for.

"Do you want me to?" His voice purred as he stopped his ministrations, slowly pulling away his hand...

"NO! Put it back where it was!" It actually surprised Buzz that Twilight all but pulled him with her magic "By Celestia... why do I feel so needy now!? Why does a simple touch feel so good!?"

"Simply put?" The answer to that question was another hiss as Buzz stopped rubbing Twilight for a moment. He went back to work as the mare gave him the stink eye "You were forced to confront your need. It seems your need won... and it is even empowering your magic" That last part was said with a bit of worry "I can't pull away even with this body's resistance to your telekinesis"

"If you pull out I will make you lack a gender once more" The growling in her voice was beyond menacing, it left Buzz so shocked that he was unable to move. It took Twilight a few seconds to notice what she had just said, her mind focused on the lack of pleasure until her brain decided to get back to her "Oh... Oh Celestia... Why did I say that?"

The sound of a door opening cut any kind of answer from Buzz.

"Twilight, darling, I am so sorry to interrupt your research at this hour but Spike send me a letter and..."

Twilight looked up, Buzz looked up, Rarity looked down. Her eyes widened for a few seconds, mouth agape, unable to say anything until she let two simple words in utter surprise.

"Oh... my..."

Then she fell flat on the ground, unconscious.

A few very awkward seconds flew by before Buzz decided to break the tension "Well, this was unexpected. Do we continue or...?"

The answer he got was a massive cold shower summoned by Twilight. Both of them needed it more than they knew.

Author's Note

First chapter of this naughty fic ladies and gentlemen, you are all welcome to read and despair! Now, before I start to emulate some of my favorite villains and laugh like a maniac, let's go over the basics.

This story, as said in the warnings, has porn, flankloads of porn. Almost every chapter will contain at least ONE sex scene, much like my other porn story (Which will be started in less than a week's time I hope). These two stories are for me to de-stress and enjoy myself. They are simple, maybe with some adventure (Mostly the other story, this one is a day by day naughty and funny business) and made to entertain (I hope). If you do not like the idea of seeing things within warning list, then you can should leave right away because these are not works made to be perfect and I won't get in an argument because of them.

Now! If you are a naughty and silly person (Probably more naughty than anything) like I am? Then you can go right ahead and throw suggestions, comments or whatever else you feel like it. Just remember: No arguments, because 'I' have the last word and being unfriendly will get you nowhere.

So, how can you influence how things will roll out? Simple: Make a suggestion. I will admit that I have limits, like almost any other person, for example I do not enjoy vore, scat or similar things (much less gore, snuff and the like). I like happy, friendly and naughty things, so not eating anyone (Eating out, however, is possible). In the same way I have to say that I am sorry, but F/F and M/M (Well, I do like girly boys...) are, as strange as it sounds when I say that I love hermaphrodites, not my cup of tea. They may happen, but they may not, so don't be discouraged, it is just now how I roll... I am a weird person .

To make it simpler: If you WANT TO you can suggest scenarios, characters (Including your OCs if you wish, but you better be ready to give me a good profile, remember that I am anal about details) and such, though remember that it is highly likely that Twilight or Buzz will be present in them (This story follows THEM after all). If I like them (or fellow readers like them), then the encounters may very well happen, sooner or later, heck, if I like any of them a lot I will make it known that it WILL happen, but it will take time.

Remember this because it is important: Astro Lord eats most of my time, and its universe (side stories) will too, much like my original work that I have on the side. Naughty is fun, but is secondary, so these will be update when I feel like it.

I know, not the nicest or more open notes in the world, but beating around the bush never helps me, so here you have a dose of sincerity. Enjoy! (Or don't !)
