Crys returned to Twilight's castle while everypony was still at the party. He decided to head back to his room, as soon as he could find it, he always had a bit of trouble navigating his way through the castle,'I really need to get a map for this place'he thought as he walked through the long corridors of the castle.'Let's see, 26, 27, ah right here should be my room' he used his mental notes that usually didn't help him too much. As he opened the door nothing seemed out of place, he decided to walk into his room as he retired himself from the suit which hid his amulet with his cape underneath.

"It's about time, I've been waiting." Karma called out from behind him.

"Go away." He said not moving or looking towards her.

"Oh, and why would you want me to do that?" She said lovingly approaching the front of Crys,"You and I both know I'm the only pony who will ever, truley, accept you." She finished putting her hoof on his chin."

Crys' mane and tail started to flow and spark,"except, you're not a pony, Crysalis." He blasted her backwards with a surge of magic forcing the changeling queen into her natural form,"Leave! NOW!" he yelled. His eyes started to glow a light blue as his mane and tail burst into deep red flames.

"What's going on in here?" Twilight asked running into theroom followed by the rest of the mane six, Starlight, and Spike.

Crys looked back at his friends as his coat turned black, the alicorn amulet sunk into his chst as sharp crystals protrued his shoulders and followed to the center of his chest, finally two firey wings came from his back,"LEAVE ALL OF YOU!"

"No, we're here, and we're going to help you."Twilight said, Crystals flew from the floor and encased each of them.

"Yes, now finish them!" Crysalis said with a malevolent grin.

"Why would I do that?" Crys said with a deep voice,"It's not them I have a problem with, It's you!" Crys said blasting a large ball of fire from his horn, Crysalis barely avoided it as it seemlessly blasted through the wall. Crysalis now knowing she was in danger fled through that same hole in the wall. Crys looked back towards his friends noticing the fear on their faces,"Ugh, and this is what I get for coming back to equestria." he said as he flew through the hole in the wall and headed towards the Everfree forest.

The crystals that encased the mane six, Starlight, and Spike slowly retracted and released them.

"I don't mean to say I told ya so, but I was kind of right." Raindow Dash said with a smirk.

"Rainbow Dash, this is not the time!" Applejack said angrily.

"What now?" Spike asked.

A glass bottle on the ground started to speak,"What do you mean,'What now'?"

"Really Discord?" Spike said to the bottle.

"What, I have a feeling this is far from over." Discord said and turned into himself,"Nothing ends this quick when you six are involved, it usual takes at least thirty minutes."

"Discord there's eight of us." Starlight mentioned.

"Well he's right about one thing." Twilight said,"This isn't over yet, I mean he flew into the Everfree Forest. We're going to get him."

In the Everfree Forest
A white pegasus stalion with a black and red streaked mane and tail looked up at a red streak in the sky,"Okay one fire streak in the sky is normal, but two I better go investigate."
