cuddling Chrysalis part 1 Chrysalis learns to be loved.
It was all over, Chrysalis knew it the moment her throne had been smashed. Her children and subjects cast her out of what was left of their old home. And the pony who caused all of this said she still had a chance to be forgiven. She knew that she could have taken Starlights hoof and joined her newly metamorphosized family. But, the love she felt from Starlight was hollow and bitter, false and weak. She couldn't live off of that swill for very long, so she cut her losses and fled, hoping to find somepony to feed off of. but after finding nothing for days on end and then she felt something being directed at her, ... something good?
Ever since her invasion Chrysalis and her kind had felt the hate and anger sent their way by ponies but never anything even slightly positive. So to sense anything like this should have been impossible! But here she was, on the outskirts of Ponyville near midnight tracking a source of real love for her. She cast a quick spell to find the source and was surprised to find it came from a new home on the edge of town close to both the Everfree and Twilight Sparkles castle.
Walking just within the tree line of the Everfree, Chrysalis reached the quaint home and cast a life detection spell on the small two-story building. Finding only one occupant inside on the lower floor apparently sleeping. Not sure what to do Chrysalis decided to just buck up and walk in.
As the changeling Queen entered through the back door she felt the love get much stronger and her mane started to shine. With each step, she felt stronger and healthier than she had in millennia her holes closed up and her wings repaired themselves. But then she saw just what was giving her so much power and stood still in fear.
On the floor in a sleeping bag lay a human girl with a grimace on her face. Chrysalis herself had never met a human but her mother, the last queen of the hive, had and after told the young soon to be queen this. " Never feed off a human. For although their love is even stronger than any pony's, their anger and hate is the strongest kind of poison to us. Even a moment's worth of it can kill our entire race. I felt such pain after the human I met was attacked by dragons and I am barely alive. If you ever meet a human run, my daughter, run away as fast as possible."
That had been the night Chrysalis became queen and it still hurt to remember. as she was about to walk away Chrysalis heard he name coming out of the human's mouth.
"Chrissy don't leave, please? I just want to cuddle please?" with each step towards the doorway the girl whimpered but Chrysalis reluctantly kept walking, at the doorway dispair entered into the love outpouring from the child this caused her to pause.
"NO DON'T LEAVE!" she turned to face the girl and was once more shocked to find the girl still asleep but now with tears in her eyes. "The ponies, they like me, but they couldn't see what I could. A mother and queen who was so desperate she invaded a country not once, but twice to save the children she cared for. Both times going so far to keep them alive just that little bit longer.
" Cadance told me what happened in the caves, how you pleaded with her to save as many as she could with her love magic. And she did, but after exhausting all her magic she started using her own lifeforce to fuel her spells. That's when you sent the letters hoping that Twilight could see through your act and save Cadance from herself. While that plan worked so well you didn't have to worry about food for a long time. Nopony ever asked what happened to Cadance in the caves and painted you and your swarm as bad ponies. This wasn't a problem as all the changelings were feeding off the leftovers of the love wave.
Then Tirek drained all of Cadance's love magic from Twilight, destroying your food stores in the process and causing another famine. This time you took all the ponies who had strong connections to Cadance. In hopes that they would make sure she didn't make the same mistake twice. But you forgot to contact Cadance. And Thorax showed up to tell her you needed help again but after making friends he forgot. Thus you just knocked them out and brought them to your hive and placed them in healing cocoons to recover.
Starlight had thought you were evil not just desperate, and your actions must have been panic mode at best. Then Thorax shared his love, that action caused a chain reaction in the others that only you could resist. After you left Cadance finally told everypony what had happened before the wedding but only I believed it. The rest thought you had implanted memories in her mind. But she projected those memories to everypony else through Luna's dream/memory magic, proving that you had planned the wedding alongside Cadance and asked for her help with your famine. When Luna told that what we were seeing was what actually happened they all realized you didn't need to be forgiven. All you ever needed was love. Please let me give you that love... I need it too."
Chrysalis stood there shocked! This human knew everything! She had guessed it all and then the Pink Bitch had confirmed those guesses. She remained standing in the doorway for hours, completely lost in thought, till she heard a zipper open and saw the girl wake up. As she tried to move she found her body had locked up from being overfed and remaining still for so long. Then the girl saw her.
"Chrysalis?" She asked and Chrysalis nodded finding her neck to be the only part of her currently capable of movement. "You're here?!" Another nod.
"It's really you!" The girl exclaimed rushing to hug the queen finally unlocking Chrysalis' joints as the love coming off of her overpowered the queens fear and the force of the hug allowed her body to move once more. Without thinking the queen returned the embrace hold the girl close "Thank you." They both said.
The girl giggled, "You first Buggy."
Chrysalis grimaced at the playful nickname but continued. "Thanks for believing Candy Ass without proof and thank you for calling me Chrissy not even Cadance did that."
"How do you know that Chrissy? We've never talked before." TThe girl said confused.
"You talk in your sleep. What were you thanking me for?"
"For the cuddles. I had hoped to ask once I met you but you just held me without thought and that made me happy."
"Well, I'm glad you're happy because that keeps me alive."
Just as Chrysalis was about to ask the girl for her name the front door opened.
"Hay Dakota we just got word Chrysalis was spotted... near... by." Twilight Sparkle said as she walked in on the two cuddling oddities.
"CHRYSALIS WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN!!!!!!!!!"
