Drabble Kaboom!

"What if copy!Twilight survived and is planning her revenge?"

"Damn tree, damn Chrysalis," a dark purple unicorn paced back and forth. "They were idiots but they were still all I had! I could see the mistakes in what she was doing, but no, we were just slaves to her! ..." She stomped her hoof. When the villains had been playing around with Discord's stolen chaos magic, she'd been resurrected. She didn't remember where she'd gone, had she gone anyway? Did she... not have a soul? There'd been way too much research in the spiritual realm for anypony to think souls didn't exist (a spiritual echo possessed by anything conscious of its own existence separate from the rest of the cosmos).

Not that it mattered right now. All she had was revenge... there was a big problem though. Chrysalis was now a statue in Canterlot garden, and she lacked the means to free her and THEN take revenge on her. And that stupid, evil, cruel, monstrous, murderous tree that'd killed her and killed her sist-, those idiots. Sombra had smashed it just before getting himself killed (again)... like he was some clean-up crew whose sole purpose was to remove something that the ponies had barely used anyway.

"And then tree grew into a tree house for the 'new and improved more-species-diverse-six...' Why? What was even the point of that?! ..." 'Twilight' groaned laying head against 'Grogar's' lair. It was now completely abandoned, Discord had no further use of it, and the villains weren't coming back.

"So I'm stuck. Either I try to depetrify Chrysalis without the means or resources to. Or try to go up against the tree that effortlessly murdered me the first time. What the heck am I even supposed to do? Crawl into a hole and die? No! This might be an artificial life I'm living but it's MINE! ..."

She sulked into a library within Grogar's lair, mostly unused by the villains, or Discord, left to gather dust for eons. "Well, I have nothing better to do."

Reading... history, magic, forbidden magic, dark magic, black magic, chaos magic, the creation of magic, corruption magic...

"This might take decades, or centuries... but it'll work... and Equestria will become a place where me and my sisters will be the normal ones... just you wait and see." 'Twilight' said, conjuring a tiny black crystal with insect wings that flew to the tree of harmony, shed its form and merged with the tree.

Opaline awoke from her magically induced slumber... she sensed it... had the harmony magic around Equestria become ... tainted? Which meant... she could claim it as her own.
