Author's Note

The Beginning
It was a cold, dark, and stormy night. Inside of a mountain, not to far from equestria, There was a changeling hive. The changelings here hated ponies, and were pure evil. Now, a new queen was just now crowned. Her name was Chrysalis.. Now fast forward 20 years later...
A changeling named Blackwing, who was also general of the entire army, was old and tired. He had a big scar running down his right eye, and his wings were gray. He knew his time was running out. He hated the queen, and all of her ways. He was "different". He had been around since before she was queen anyways. He knew the old ways. He also knew, he needed an apprentice. There was one problem in his way, the queen. If he were to have an apprentice and her to find out, he would never be seen again. So, he would have to find the new hatchlings, and steal one. This changeling would be different, just like him. So, the next day, he went down to the room where the hatchery, in secret.
He made it in, unnoticed. He was a master of sneak and martial arts. The walls were lined with egg sacks, and there were hundreds. He had to pick one, and fast. He read that there were 300. There were 2 guards walking his way, and he hid behind a rock.
"I've counted, And there is 301. The 42nd one has two, but it is split down the middle." The first guard said.
"67, Be quiet! If anyone hears you, one of those two will be banished! I just hope someone hides one." The second guard said. They were gone, and General Blackwing went to the 42nd sack.
The guard was right, it was like two egg sacks fused together. He saw one of the sides open. The hatching wasn't until two weeks. Inside, was a male changeling, about the size of a filly. He knew, this one was his apprentice. He quickly picked up the changeling, and closed the sack. He ran out of the room, and bumped into someone. It was the queen. He couldn't hide the baby, it was too late.
"General Blackwing, I was just looking for you. What is that behind your back?" Chrysalis said in confusion. He knew he couldn't fight her, not in his current state anyways. He had to show her. He did. He showed her the young changeling.
"You have a young one." Her face was still normal. Then, Unexpectedly, A tiny head popped out behind her shoulder. It was a young female changeling.
"You also have a young one, Are you banishing her for hatching early?" Blackwing said, awaiting response.
"Actually, she is the reason I was looking for you. She is your new apprentice, or was going to be." She said. Blackwing was shocked.
"Wait, I could take both! It could change our race forever! Every general has only had one apprentice, And they took over after the death of their general. But two, could be unstoppable!" Chrysalis looked like she was thinking about it and said something shocking in return.
"I will allow it. These two changelings shall be your apprentice. What are their names?" General Blackwing thought, and replied.
"The female will be named Dark Rose. And the male will be.... Jack. Jack The Changeling. And so the story begins…
Jack The Changeling: The Begining
Sadness has struck the hive. General Blackwing, at age 97, died. He died from a magic blast. He was experimenting in the lab. His journal, along with everything else he had, was destroyed. This was yesterday. Jack and Dark Rose are now 20. It’s time for Jack to be general since he is the male, and Dark Rose to be vice general. Jack would have the power to take down any command of Dark Rose's.
"I can't believe it. He was just looking. It shouldn't have exploded. It was a weapon of war, but why it exploded inside of the hive, I don't know."Jack was confused. The queen had have him create weapons before. This was the biggest. Jack had the other scientists build it, but he was by farthest smartest. He was only to look it over to see if there were any loose wires and such. He thought it was just an accident. He didn't know it was a bomb. In fact, he still didn't know.
He knew that was the prototype. The real one was ready to launch after the coronation. Jack would be the one to launch it.
"Jack, let us go over this one more time. If this does not go perfectly, I will kill you. Do not ruin this. after she says I am vice general push the button."
Dark Rose was dead serious. Jack knew this. Jack had a plan. Right before Dark Rose came into the room, He went to the lab. The walls were black from the ash. There was an explosion mark in the middle of the room. Piles of burned papers and ashes were everywhere. one piece of paper that stood out to him. He read it aloud, for the words were still readable, Mostly. There were holes, So he had to read it in gaps.
Journal Entry #783
This shall be my last entry. I have gone to the lab to see the new bomb. Jack still has no idea that he has created a bomb that turns ponies into changelings. He has... and after he launches it, all of Equestria will be changelings. I hope he doesn't do it. I hope he presses the self destruct button and gets out of the hive. I hope he tries to get dark rose to come with him, and teaches her goo... Someone is coming, and I fear my life must come to an end. I will trigger the bomb, for I believe it is the only one. There here. Oh my. Its Chrysa...
Jack then knew what he had to do. He would trigger the bomb inside the changeling hive, and run. He had no idea where to, but he would do it.He met Dark Rose at the pedestal. It was finally time.
"My fellow changelings, I am queen Chrysalis! *she then coughed. I am sorry,I have caught a cold. It is time for these two changelings to become generals! Jack the Changeling, You are now general of the army! Dark Rose, you are now vice general of this army!" Jack then asked to speak privately with Dark Rose for 3 minutes before the launch.
"Jack, What?" Dark Rose had anger in her eyes. She was mad.
"Listen, I recommend you come with me. Be good for once. Or stay here. What is your decision?" Jack sounded nervous and talked fast.
"What? Good? You are not making any sense. I am not going anywhere, and I am leading this army." Jack knew there was no convening her. He knew he had to press the button now. He stepped up to the podium. He then quickly slammed his arm on the self destruct button.
"What are you doing, you'll kill us all!" Chrysalis yelled.
"Sorry, I am out of here! Dark Rose come with!" Jack was in a hurry. Dark rose just simply shook her head no.He felt sad, but had to get out of there.
"15 seconds until self destruct." The announcer said. Jack quickly flew through the hole in the mountain. It was the launch hole. The launch hole closed, and the last thing he saw behind those huge doors was Dark Rose staring at him.
Jack The Changeling: The Begining
Celestia sat down in the throne, and mentioned something about her star pupil just leaving to Ponyvile. Then, Jack made a noise. She ordered him to come out. He was no longer transformed, either. He had to come out now. So he did. Celestia was stunned. She asked what he was doing there.
"Please, If you allow me to explain, it will all make sense. Please wait to call the guards."
Celestia agreed and listened to Jack’s entire story. She had a few questions, and Jack truthfully answered them.
"And that is it. How I am here. And I request a job here." Celestia was confused. Jack told her the benefits of having someone who is really smart and how it can help how he is a changeling, Celestia asked him if he would actually help him and he said yes.
She thought it over, and actually said yes. She gave Jack a small house with a shed to use for a lab and he got to work. She probably did not fully trust him now, but it looked like she was in a hurry and needed to quickly make a decision. And for that Jack was happy. And this is the end of our beginning. But like I said, this is only the beginning...
Jack The Changeling: The Begining
Journal Entry #345
The apprentices have grown so much. They have been able to walk for a few moons now. They are not ready for hard training, which Chrysalis is pushing me for. Dark Rose is practicing her sneak and martial arts, and is great at it. Jack however, has been secretly been training with me in a way no other changeling would understand.
He is very smart, Too smart in fact, he made a mistake. He can make amazing inventions. He made a bad decision recently and showed Chrysalis. She saw his talent, and now asks for more. By the time Jack is 15, the entire colony will be completely technological. The worst part is, He does not even know he is building weapons... *Static*
*Fades In* Is it working? Alright! My name is Jack. I am a changeling, and I am 7 years old. I am currently testing a new device I would like to call a recorder! It records moments in history as long as it’s there. You can even see and hear them! It’s amazing! That is what I am using now. Dark Rose! Please come in here and see!!! *the camera shuts off*
"What do you want Jack?" Dark Rose seemed angry. She was the same age as Jack. Jack did not see her as a sister, and neither did any other changeling, for no changelings had brothers or sisters.
"I just wanted to show you a new invention! Please don't be angry!I know you take training seriously!" She had scared Jack
"I just want to have a moment of peace to myself and practice my skills! Dark Rose was being trained like a spy. Fast, Almost invisible, And deadly. Her main weapon is throwing knives.
Dark rose left the room, and Blackwing entered.
"Jack, it’s time we talk. You are growing up, and I cannot teach you any more. You know everything you need to know to be general. Now, I teach you something else I cannot teach any changeling, even Dark Rose. The power of good." Blackwing Was ready, and Jack was too.
Jack The Changeling: The Begining
Jack had made it to a town called Ponyvile. He had set up camp right outside town. He had been traveling for 8 days. The journey was hard and long. He had barely anything. He had binoculars, a compass, a pair of x-ray vision goggles, some blueprints of weapons and stuff, and a special laser pistol that he made for General Blackwing. It was styled like a revolver, and was amazing.
He had transformed himself as a colt. He had yellow skin, blue eyes, blue and white hair, and no cutie mark. When he entered town, he thought he saw a chariot above him flying. He thought he saw a baby purple dragon in it. How weird. He bumped into a stallion.
He was tall and about as old as Jack. He had brown fur, a more darker shade of brown hair, and a cutie mark hourglass. He was also wearing a tie. He was walking away from a blue box.He acted as he knew who Jack really was.
"Hey kid, If you ever see this box again no matter what form you come in, give it a knock." He said. Jack then thought he saw the chariot and looked. He then heard a strange noise and turned back. The blue box was gone.
He wanted to see more. He found the train station, and there was a line. He hopped on the back car when a conductor saw him. The train started moving, and it was faster than the conductor. Jack then stuck out his tongue at the conductor. He slept for the entire ride. He woke up to an announcer saying we are almost at Canterlot. Jack stepped out back and saw the most beautiful thing he had ever seen.
A city on the side of a mountain. He didn't want to be seen, and he knew a lot of spells. He used a teleportation spell and found him in an empty throne room. He quickly hid behind the throne as someone entered. It was a tall white figure with wings and a horn. Jack Knew who it was, for he read many books about her. It was the princess. Princess Celestia.
