A new beginningby Twilight starChaptersChapter 1Chapter 2Chapter 3Chapter 4Chapter 5Chapter 1Chrysalis emerged from under the stones of her throne and from the walls of the hive throne room as it sizzled. But she stopped when she realized that all the ponies and the reformed Changelings were looking at Chrysalis as if they were ready to attack. Well, except Starlight Glimmer, who looked at Chrysalis with a possible look of understanding. Chrysalis seemed uncertain with what she saw. Her subjects betrayed her. Starlight Glimmer offered Chrysalis a hull, “you don’t have to be this way”, Chrysalis looked at Starlight Glimmer’s hull. “You can still be the queen you always wanted to be”, continued Starlight Glimmer, still with her hoof extended. Starlight Glimmer and Chrysalis began to approach their hooves, until when the hooves touched, Chrysalis felt her body glow pink, she floated and the pink glow formed like when Thorax shared love. The ponies and the Changelings covered their eyes with their hooves. When the glow stopped, they stopped covering their eyes and opened them, everypony And everychangeling was surprised by what they saw: Chrysalis was now white and its mane was now light blue. Chrysalis looked at her in surprise. Rarity let out a sigh of surprise. “Does anypony have a mirror?” asked Chrysalis. Rarity popped up a giant mirror and Chrysalis noticed that she was quite different, “wow”, was all Chrysalis could say. She put the hoof on her chin. “Darling, you look fabulous”, said Rarity with a smile as she held the mirror with her magic. Chrysalis smiled at the compliment. “Thank you, Rarity”, said Chrysalis, still smiling. Rarity closed her eyes as she smiled. Thorax approached Chrysalis, “Chrysalis, now that I am, let’s Just say, the King of Changelings, would you like to rule with me?” Chrysalis looked at Thorax, who now stopped. Chrysalis looked uncertain. She wasn’t a good queen to her subjects. Did she really deserve to rule with Thorax after what she did? “I don’t know, Thorax. I wasn’t even a good queen to you all” Thorax moved closer to Chrysalis, who was staring at the ground, “look, this isn’t entirely true, Chrysalis” Chrysalis looked at Thorax, “but it’s true, Thorax. I didn’t want you and others to share love. I even considered you a threat to the hive” “Well, that is true. But I forgive you. And I’m sure the other Changelings have forgiven you too” Chrysalis looked at the Changelings and they nodded as they smiled. Chrysalis was glad her subjects forgave her, but she still didn’t know if she should continue to rule as Queen of the Changelings, “I’m glad about that. But I don’t know if I should continue to rule as Queen of Changelings” The Changelings were surprised, “But why, Chrysalis?” Chrysalis stared at the floor, “as I said before: I didn’t want you and the others to share the love. I even considered you a threat to the hive” “But Chrysalis, me and the other Changelings have forgiven you”, said Thorax, still confused. “Yes. But I fear the ponies haven’t forgiven me for my actions”, said Chrysalis. Thorax looked at the princesses, Starlight Glimmer, Trixie, Twilight, Discord, Flurry Heart, Shining Armor, Spike, and the other Twilight friends. Everypony, began to think about it. Should they forgive Chrysalis for what she did? Fluttershy was the first to say, “I forgive you”, Discord hoped Fluttershy wouldn’t replace him. Who spoke later was Pinkie Pie, who was jumping to Chrysalis just before stopping, “Of course I forgave you. I’ll even have a party for you later” Rarity was the one who said now, “I forgiven you, darling” Applejack said as she approached before stopping, “I can see you’re sorry and not lying, so I forgave you” Rainbow Dash was flying, “I don’t know . I forgive you if you don’t be mean again” “But I won’t be mean”, said Chrysalis. “Then I forgive you”, said Rainbow Dash, now smiling. “The great and powerful Trixie forgives you”, said Trixie. “I’ve already forgiven you”, said Starlight Glimmer with a smile. “I dont know. I think so”, said Discord, still uncertain. Flurry Heart is unable to speak, so she Just nodded. “I forgive you, Chrysalis”, said Spike. “I forgive you”, said Shining Armor, although it seems a little uncertain. But Chrysalis didn’t seem to notice this uncertain. Now only Celestia, Luna, Candace and Twilight Sparkle remained. Would they forgive her? There was a silence. Chrysalis was bothered by the silence, “so what?” Who spoke first was Celestia, “Chrysalis, you may have done bad things. But I see that you are now sorry and now you’re reformed. So I think I can forgive you” Luna approached Chrysalis before stopping, “I wasn’t during the wedding when you attacked Canterlot. But my sister told me everything you did. I wouldn’t forgive you. But as I see you’re reformed, I forgive you” Candace thought for a moment before saying, “I forgive you” Twilight Sparkle approached Chrysalis as he said, “Chrysalis, I wouldn’t forgive you” Chrysalis was sad about that. “... But after I realized that Thorax was a good changeling I could realize that maybe the changelings weren’t bad” Chrysalis was surprised by this. Did that mean what she thought it was? “Chrysalis, I forgave you”, finished Twilight Sparkle with a smile. Chrysalis smiled. Yes. That was exactly what she was thinking. Twilight Sparkle forgave her. For a moment, she thought Twilight wouldn’t forgive. She was grateful that Twilight met Thorax. Because she knew that if Twilight hadn’t met Thorax, Twilight wouldn’t forgive her. After all that, Chrysalis decided that she would live in Ponyville. Although Thorax seems a little uncertain about that, but later he accepted Chrysalis’s choice. And Pinkie Pie, as promised, threw a party at Chrysalis at Sugarcube Corner. Rarity and Fluttershy were talking, Applejack and Rainbow Dash were competing in the apple picking game, Pinkie Pie was eating a piece of cake and Twilight Sparkle and Chrysalis were talking. “So, Chrysalis? How are you feeling?” asked Twilight Sparkle. Chrysalis didn’t know how to express herself, “I think so” “Is something bothering you?” asked Twilight Sparkle. Chrysalis let out a breath, “Yes, Twilight. There is something that is bothering me” “And what is it, Chrysalis?” asked Twilight Sparkle worriedly. “I fear the Ponyville ponies are afraid of me because of my past”, replied Chrysalis, now looking away. “I’m sure the Ponyville ponies don’t even know you. Just Canterlot’s”, said Twilight Sparkle with a smile. Chrysalis was able to cheer up, “yeah. Maybe you’re right. But I still fear that they will recognize me and be afraid of me” Twilight Sparkle, still smiling, said, “Don’t worry, I’m the princess of friendship. They know what I am doing. Then, they will probably realize that being with you, they will see that you are trustworthy” “Does anypony want cake?” asked Pinkie Pie as she cut the cake with a knife and placed each slice on a plate. Friends of Twilight, Twilight and Chrysalis went to where Pinkie Pie was. Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash ate the cake on their plate, Twilight, Rarity and Chrysalis ate the cake holding it with their magic. While Chrysalis ate, she wondered with who she should live. Maybe she should live with Fluttershy, because Fluttershy was kind. But there was also Pinkie Pie, who could cheer her up during the rough times. There was also Rarity and Applejack, but she thought it best not to live one of those two. Because from what Twilight told, Rarity spent the day creating new clothes and Applejack running a farm. She decided better not to live with them. Because they would spending the day busy with their jobs. But there was also Rainbow Dash. And there was Starlight Glimmer, who was the first to offer her friendship to her. She couldn’t decide which one to live with. “Chrysalis, is everything okay?” asked Twilight Sparkle, now looking at Chrysalis. Chrysalis looked at Twilight Sparkle, “I’m just undecided” “Undecided what?” asked Twilight Sparkle. “Which of you should I live with”, replied Chrysalis. The Twilight friends looked at Chrysalis, “Why don’t you spend a day with one of us and who you like spending time with? You can live with who you liked spending time with”, said Twilight Sparkle. Chrysalis looked at Twilight Sparkle, “It’s a good idea” “Would you like to spend the day with who today after the party?” asked Twilight Sparkle. “if the party isn’t until night, I think with Fluttershy”, replied Chrysalis. Fluttershy, in response, closed her eyes as she smiled. Chapter 2When the party was over, it was already night. It was almost midnight. Pinkie Pie watched Chrysalis and her other friends leave Sugarcube Corner. Chrysalis followed Fluttershy to the house. She wondered what Fluttershy’s house would be like, “Fluttershy” Fluttershy looked at Chrysalis, “yes?” “Where do you live?” asked Chrysalis. “Near Everfree Forest”, replied Fluttershy. “Aren’t you afraid an animal will attack you?” asked Chrysalis a little worried. “What? No. All animals are my friends”, replied Fluttershy as she smiled. Chrysalis smiled at that. When they arrived, Chrysalis was surprised by how much animal Fluttershy had indoors and out. She wanted to know why Fluttershy had so many animals, “Why do you have so many animals, Fluttershy?” Fluttershy looked at Chrysalis, “I’m the Ponyville vet. I take care of all the animals” “Don’t you find that too much work?” asked Chrysalis. “It’s really easy for me”, replied Fluttershy, still smiling. “If you find it easy, okay then”, said Chrysalis with a smile. When they entered the house, the animals were startled to see Chrysalis and hid. Fluttershy went to the hiding places that the animals hid and told them that Chrysalis wouldn’t hurt them. The animals relied on Fluttershy, although they still seem uncertain about Chrysalis. Because Chrysalis was a Changeling. They feared that Chrysalis would suck their love. Chrysalis didn’t know that the animals knew and feared the Changelings. It made her uncomfortable. Would living with Fluttershy be a good idea? Okay, maybe that just happens today and not anymore, but she feared it would happen every day. Maybe living with Fluttershy isn’t a good idea… “Chrysalis, I’m going to prepare dinner. Feel free to explore the house”, said Fluttershy, now looking at Chrysalis. Chrysalis looked at Fluttershy. “Oh. Ok”, said Chrysalis. Fluttershy went to the kitchen. When Chrysalis was out of her sight, she decided to explore the house. As she explored, Chrysalis noticed that the animals were afraid of her and hid. Chrysalis wanted to talk to Fluttershy, but she didn’t want to interrupt what Fluttershy was doing. She went upstairs and saw pictures of Discord with Fluttershy. She wondered why Discord wasn’t with them. Suddenly a glow appeared in the room, Chrysalis descended the steps and saw Discord in a tourist suit, with sunglasses and two suitcases. " Fluttershy. I’m here”, said Discord, now looking for her friend. Discord entered the kitchen and saw Fluttershy. “Fluttershy!” said Discord cheerfully. Fluttershy stopped what she was doing and smiled when he saw Discord, “Discord!” They hugged. Chrysalis just observed this beautiful scene. She wondered if any of the ponies that helped her redemption liked her. Discord felt he was being watched and saw Chrysalis watching, “what are you doing here? Are you planning to hurt my Fluttershy?!” Chrysalis was startled by that. “Discord. She’s good now. Don’t you remember?” said Fluttershy. Discord paused to think, “no. I think I forgot” “If it’s this, It’s okay. Could you apologize to her?” asked Fluttershy politely. “All for you, Fluttershy”, said Discord said as he looked at Fluttershy before approaching Chrysalis. And make a bow. “Chrysalis, I’m so sorry for my behavior”, said Discord with his eyes closed. “You don’t have to be formal with me. I’m not even queen of the Changelings anymore”, said Chrysalis. Discord stopped bowing and opened his eyes in surprise, “oh! It is true! How distracted of me” “Dinner is ready”, said Fluttershy. Chrysalis and Discord went to the table. Discord obviously sat next to Fluttershy. Chrysalis despite appreciating their friendship, she still wondered if she was going to have a friend. Fluttershy served her, Discord and Chrysalis. The food was beef stroganoff. As they ate, Chrysalis wondered if it was good to live here. Because Fluttershy already had a friend, and it seemed she didn’t care so much about the former Queen of the Changeling. Maybe she should leave when Fluttershy and Discord went to sleep. No. She couldn’t come out of nowhere. She had to at least warn. Decided this, she began to eat. Lucky, Fluttershy or Discord didn’t find it odd that she didn’t start eating. When Chrysalis, Discord and Fluttershy had finished dinner, Fluttershy and Discord had tea. Chrysalis found it strange. The two had just finished eating and now they would drink tea? That was something she would never understand. She decided to explore the upstairs further. She barely explored right because Discord showed up. Arriving in the hallway, she saw pictures of Fluttershy’s friends and some pictures of Fluttershy with Discord. She looked ahead and saw a door at the end of the corridor. Chrysalis went to the door and opened it with a hoof, when she opened it, she was surprised to see Fluttershy’s room. But what surprised her most was the bed. The bed had two pillows, as if two ponies could sleep. She didn’t want to think about it, but she began to wonder if Fluttershy and Discord were together. She decided to go out and stay downstairs, along with Fluttershy and Discord. She just hoped it wasn’t bothering her. Arriving downstairs, she saw Fluttershy on a couch and Discord on another couch. Chrysalis approached and sat next to Fluttershy. She couldn’t help noticing that she felt ignored. Maybe she had better go and stay with another friend. “Chrysalis, is everything okay?” asked Fluttershy, now looking at Chrysalis. Chrysalis looked uncertain. She didn’t want to make Fluttershy sad. But she needed to tell the truth about what she was feeling, “no” “What happened?” asked Fluttershy. “It’s just that I feel like you’re ignoring me”, replied Chrysalis, now looking to the side. “Why?” asked Fluttershy. “It’s just that I feel like you’re Just staying with Discord”, replied Chrysalis. “Oh my…” said Fluttershy surprised and possibly sad. Her ears were down. Discord was surprised and approached Chrysalis, “How dare you make Fluttershy sad?!” Fluttershy tried to calm Discord, “It’s all right, Discord. She is right” Discord was surprised as he looked at Fluttershy, “What?” “She’s right,” Fluttershy repeated what he said. “I’ve been spending these last minutes just with you and not with Chrysalis. I should’ve stay with Chrysalis a bit” Discord was speechless. Fluttershy looked at Chrysalis now, “Chrysalis, if you want to leave, I understand” Chrysalis knew that maybe she had the chance. She looked out the window and saw the full moon. She didn’t want to wake up others from her new friends. So she would sleep here and tomorrow she would choose another of her friends to live with, “Fluttershy, I’m going to sleep here today. But tomorrow I plan to choose another of your friends to live with” Fluttershy was still sad, “ok…” Discord hugged Fluttershy as he looked at Chrysalis with a disapproving look. Chrysalis was bothered by it. Did she hurt Fluttershy’s feelings? Chapter 3When morning came, Chrysalis got up from the couch. Yes. She slept on the couch. Although Fluttershy insisted Chrysalis sleep in the bed, Chrysalis said she would rather sleep on the couch. Fluttershy accepted this and Discord was relieved by it. When she sat down, she saw Discord beside her. Discord seemed a little annoyed to see Chrysalis sitting next to her, “Why don’t you move? This is where Fluttershy sits” “I’m sorry”, said Chrysalis sadly. Chrysalis sat where she had sat yesterday. Fluttershy set the pancakes on the table. When Fluttershy sat at the table, Discord hugged Fluttershy. Fluttershy hugged him back. Chrysalis couldn’t deny that Fluttershy and Discord seemed to be together. She wondered if it was true. She looked at her pancake and began to eat. Discord and Fluttershy came out of the hug and began to eat. After they had finished eating, Chrysalis left Fluttershy’s house and went looking for another friend she had. She planned to go stay with Pinkie Pie now. Maybe with Pinkie Pie would be easier? Suddenly, something hit her and she fell to the floor. “Sorry, Chrysalis” Chrysalis knew that voice. She looked at the owner of the voice and saw Rainbow Dash, “ah. Sorry, Rainbow” Rainbow Dash stood up, “It’s fine. I should have paid attention to where I was flying” “Where were you flying?” asked Chrysalis, now curious. “I was practicing some maneuvers for the Wonderbolts show”, replied Rainbow Dash. Now Chrysalis was confused, “What is a Wonderbolt?” Rainbow Dash was surprised, “Don’t you know what a Wonderbolt is?!” “I am a Changeling. How would I know?” said Chrysalis. Rainbow Dash was still shocked by this, but soon recovered, “okay. Okay. Would you like me to tell you the story of the Wonderbolts?” “Is it a long story?” asked Chrysalis. Rainbow Dash sighed, “yes. And it’s very long” “I think it’s better not to tell. I have an appointment”, said Chrysalis. Rainbow Dash looked possibly insecure and angry. She approached Chrysalis, “Where are you going? Do you plan to steal love from the ponies?! ” Chrysalis was surprised by this, “what? I was reformed. Don’t you remember?” “Yes. But I want to make sure you don’t do something bad”, said Rainbow Dash, without taking the arrogance from her face. Chrysalis looked like maybe spending time with Rainbow Dash wouldn’t be as good as she looked. Maybe she didn’t need to spend the day with Rainbow Dash. Chrysalis decided to run away. “Hey! Get back here!” exclaimed Rainbow Dash, before flying after Chrysalis. But luckily for Chrysalis, Discord grabbed Rainbow Dash’s tail with his magic. Discord shook his head as he smiled. Rainbow Dash crossed the hooves. Pinkie Pie was making Cupcakes until she heard the sound of the door opening and closing. Curious, she went to see who it was. But she soon smiled to see that it was just Chrysalis. Pinkie Pie went to Chrysalis, “hi, Chrysalis. Why did you come to Sugarcube Corner? Planning to eat a cupcake?” Chrysalis startled and looked the way the voice was coming. But she soon relieved herself, “ah. Hi, Pinkie ” “Hi Chrysalis. Why did you come to Sugarcube Corner? Do you plan on eating Cupcake or a cake? Or maybe…” “I came here to hide from Rainbow Dash” Pinkie Pie was confused and struggled not to laugh, “what? Why?” “Rainbow Dash doubt I’m still mean. She almost tried to attack me”, replied Chrysalis, still tired of running. “Do you know where she is? Maybe I can make her forget it with a cupcake or a party”, asked Pinkie Pie. “No. I didn’t even look back”, replied Chrysalis. “So, would you like to help me make cupcakes? I need help”, asked Pinkie Pie. “I think so. That will at least make me forget about Rainbow Dash”, replied Chrysalis. Pinkie Pie smiled happily, “So follow me”, Pinkie Pie started to jump into the kitchen. Chrysalis followed her. Arriving in the kitchen, Chrysalis saw some Cupcakes ready. Pinkie Pie put a chef’s hat on Chrysalis. Pinkie Pie was already wearing a chef’s hat. “Hope you’re ready to make cupcakes!” exclaimed Pinkie Pie excitedly. Chrysalis tried to show happiness. And she did it. After making the Cupcakes, Chrysalis and Pinkie ate the Cupcakes on the table. The cupcakes were very good. After they finished eating, Chrysalis decided to spend all day with Pinkie Pie. And what Pinkie Pie did was organize a party. Of course, she invited her friends. Chrysalis and Pinkie Pie waited for the others to come. Everypony smiled when they saw Chrysalis and Pinkie. Well, except Rainbow Dash who glared at seeing Chrysalis. Chrysalis was scared. “You!!!” exclaimed Rainbow Dash about to fly to Chrysalis, but outside hindered by Applejack, who was holding Rainbow Dash’s tail with her mouth. “Calm down”, said Applejack, still holding Rainbow Dash’s tail. Chrysalis was scared of that. Twilight Sparkle realized this and went to Rainbow, “Rainbow! Stop now this instant!” Rainbow Dash stopped flying and looked at Twilight confusedly, “What is, Twilight?” “Can’t you see you’re scaring Chrysalis? Apologize to her”, said Twilight Sparkle, speaking in an unhappy way. Rainbow Dash seemed uncertain about that. She? Apologize? “No!” Twilight didn’t buy it, “Rainbow, stop being cocky and apologize” “No!” exclaimed Rainbow Dash as she shook her head. “Rainbow, apologize”, said Twilight Sparkle. “I said no!!” exclaimed Rainbow Dash before hitting Chrysalis. Chrysalis screamed in pain as she fell to the floor. Everypony was surprised even Rainbow Dash. They went to Chrysalis. “Chrysalis, I’m so sorry. I didn’t want to hit you”, said Rainbow Dash regretfully. Chrysalis looked at Rainbow Dash with a smile, “Okay, Rainbow. I forgive you” Twilight looked at Chrysalis, “Chrysalis, does it hurt?” Chrysalis touched her cheek to know if it hurt, “well, it still hurts because of the punch I got” Twilight Sparkle looked at Rainbow in an unhappy way, “what? It’s not my fault if Chrysalis was too close!” “She wouldn’t have hurt herself if you weren’t being so arrogant!” exclaimed Twilight Sparkle. “I wouldn’t have been arrogant if you weren’t asking me to apologize to Chrysalis!” exclaimed Rainbow Dash. “Girls, stop fighting. Don’t you realize a friend of ours is hurt?” Fluttershy broke off the fight between Twilight and Rainbow. Twilight and Rainbow stopped fighting and felt guilty. Twilight looked at Chrysalis with a regretful look, “Chrysalis, I’m so sorry you have to see me and Rainbow fight” “It’s fine, Twilight. I know you were just worried about me”, said Chrysalis. Twilight smiled at that. Chapter 4After the party, Chrysalis stayed at Sugarcube Corner with Pinkie Pie, Mr. and Mrs. Cake had dinner, they were in the kitchen, while Pinkie and Chrysalis talked. Pinkie Pie kept talking nonstop. Chrysalis couldn’t deny that she was getting a headache. Chrysalis had her head on the table as she covered her ears with her hooves. But this pony don’t keep talking for a second. That way there is no pony and creature that can stand it. “Dinner is ready!” exclaimed Mrs Cup Cake, before going to where Pinkie and Chrysalis were sitting. Chrysalis couldn’t deny that she now had a headache. “Are you ok Chrysalis?” asked Pinkie Pie, noting that Chrysalis wasn’t eating. Chrysalis looked at Pinkie Pie, “I have a headache” “Why don’t you eat? Maybe it’s hungry”, said Pinkie Pie with a smile. Although Chrysalis wanted to agree with that, she knew the reason she had a headache wasn’t because of hunger, “thanks, Pinkie. But I’m not hungry” Pinkie Pie, still smiling, said, “Let’s go. I’m sure after you eat, you’ll be better” As much as Chrysalis meant to say “no”, she decided to believe Pinkie Pie’s words, “ok, Pinkie”, Pinkie Pie smiled at that. When Chrysalis finished eating, Chrysalis couldn’t help but notice that she still had a headache. She had a hoof on her forehead, “so? Is it better?” asked Pinkie Pie with a smile. Chrysalis looked at Pinkie Pie, “no. I still have a headache” Pinkie Pie, still smiling, said, “I know what will make you better: A party!” “Thank you, Pinkie. But at the moment I’m not feeling well”, said Chrysalis. “C’mon. The party will make you feel better. It will cheer you up”, insisted Pinkie Pie with a smile. “No, Pinkie. In a few hours I plan to sleep”, said Chrysalis with her hoof on her head. “Okie dokie loki”, said Pinkie Pie with a smile even though Chrysalis had denied the party she would like to throw at Chrysalis. Chrysalis decided to go up. Pinkie Pie watched Chrysalis rise. When Chrysalis arrived in Pinkie’s room, she lay on the bed, so that the headache would get a little better. But one thing she knew: As much as she wanted to live with Pinkie Pie, she knew she couldn’t. Because if she lived with the pink mare, Chrysalis would have headaches every day. Suddenly she heard the sound of heels. She looked at the door and saw Pinkie Pie with a cake, “Chrysalis I brought you a cake” Chrysalis smiled, “thank you, Pinkie. But I already had dinner. I’m not hungry anymore” “Ah, come on. The cake will make you better”, begged Pinkie Pie. “I’m sorry. But I’m already full”, said Chrysalis. “Please. Just a piece”, asked Pinkie Pie. “I said no”, Chrysalis tried to say without being rude. Pinkie Pie looked thoughtful before answering, “okie dokie lookie”, Pinkie Pie left the room to eat the cake on the table. Chrysalis for a moment thought Pinkie Pie would insist. She was relieved that Pinkie didn’t insist. Because she would hate herself if she screamed at Pinkie Pie. It’s been several hours, and when Pinkie Pie has finished eating the cake, she went up to her room and was surprised to see Chrysalis sleeping. The former Changeling queen was sleeping over the blanket. She was snoring. Pinkie Pie let Chrysalis sleep and went to her bed to sleep too. She lay back on the bed, carefully removing the blanket so she wouldn’t to wake her friend. Lucky, she didn’t wake up Chrysalis, it just made her move while she slept. When Chrysalis woke up, she felt sunshine on her face. She covered her face with a hoof. She didn’t want to wake up yet. She turned to the side, but felt somepony else in bed. She opened her eye and was surprised to see that it was Pinkie Pie. She got up scared. She didn’t expect Pinkie Pie to sleep with her. But, she lost her balance and fell off the bed. She shouted. Pinkie Pie heard a noise and woke up. Pinkie Pie saw that it was Chrysalis that had fallen. Pinkie Pie fought not to laugh at this, “are you ok?” “Yes. But I think I hit my butt on the floor”, replied Chrysalis, now touching the sore part. “Does it hurt?” asked Pinkie Pie. “A little”, replied Chrysalis. “Is there anything you’d like me to do for you?” asked Pinkie Pie. “No. It will soon stop hurting”, replied Chrysalis, now rising from the floor. Pinkie Pie got out of bed. They went downstairs to eat. When they arrived downstairs, she realized it was Waffles. Chrysalis never tasted Waffles, so she hoped it was good. Chrysalis and Pinkie Pie sat together. Chrysalis noticed that Pinkie Pie was eating very fast. Chrysalis was surprised by this. She wondered how Pinkie Pie didn’t choke on eating so fast. When ChrysaLis finished eating, she left Sugarcube Corner. She began to wonder who she should spend the day with. She has spent a day with Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie. Missing Rarity, Applejack, Rainbow Dash and Twilight Sparkle. Who should she choose? “Chrysalis!” Chrysalis glanced left and saw Rarity running toward her. Chrysalis was confused, “Rarity? What happened?” “I’m going to buy some materials for my new dress. Would you like to shop with me?” “Yes, Rarity”, replied Chrysalis with a smile. “Thank you dear. As a reward, I’ll make a dress just for you”, said Rarity. “No need, Rarity”, said Chrysalis. “I insist”, insisted Rarity. Chrysalis thought for a moment before answering, “ok, Rarity” Rarity and Chrysalis started walking toward a supplies store. When Rarity opened the door with a hull, they heard a tinkling sound. Chrysalis looked up and saw a small bell near the door. Possibly to warn the store owner pony that customers have arrived. The store’s pony was a mare, she looked at both of them, “Rarity, Chry ...” when she saw Chrysalis, the mare hid. Chrysalis was surprised. She didn’t expect this mare to be afraid of her. Rarity decided to try to calm the mare, “Er… I came here to buy sewing supplies. Do you have?” The mare looked at Rarity. But it was still shaking, “Y-yes”, she pointed to where the sewing materials were. Rarity and Chrysalis came to the place. Chrysalis watched Rarity pick up a roll of fabric, sewing thread, and other sewing materials. Chrysalis looked back and saw that the mare was still on the ground, shaking with fear. Chrysalis was annoyed that Rarity didn’t realize that. It was as if Rarity didn’t care. Maybe she shouldn’t spend the day with Rarity. But she also wanted to give Rarity a chance. “Chrysalis, I already bought things”, said Rarity, holding in her magic a shopping bag. Chrysalis came out of her thoughts and looked at Rarity. She was going to give Rarity a chance. She was going to be with Rarity for a whole day. When Rarity and Chrysalis arrived at the Carousel Boutique, Sweetie Belle ran to Rarity. But she stopped when she saw Chrysalis and fled away. Chrysalis didn’t understand why the ponies were afraid of her. Even though she was reformed. Rarity sighed before looking at Chrysalis, “I’m going to tell my little sister that you’re good now, okay?” Chrysalis looked at Rarity, “ok” Rarity went as far as Sweetie Belle went, while Chrysalis decided to explore Rarity’s house. Upon arriving in the room, Chrysalis marveled at Rarity’s room. She entered the room to get a better look. She realized it was a mess. Chrysalis wanted to tidy up Rarity’s room. She picked up the things on the floor and put them in the drawers. When she was done, Chrysalis heard footsteps, “darling, I’ve talked to ...” But Rarity stopped when she saw that her room was all tidy. “Did you like it? I got it done”, said Chrysalis said with a smile. Rarity was still in shock, but then said, “Why did you do that?!” exclaimed Rarity still shocked. “It was a mess. I thought you would like me to have helped you”, replied Chrysalis. “My room was messy because I was making a new dress. Now I’ll have to get the materials back”, said Rarity, now sad. Chrysalis was sad, “I thought you would like me to help you” Rarity was annoyed, “happy? Happy?!” She jumped up at Chrysalis, before gritting her teeth, but managed to control herself and headed for the drawers to clear the things that had been put away. Chrysalis was offended by this. She needed to apologize, “Rarity, I…” Rarity turned back unhappy before returning to her task. Chrysalis decided to leave. She planned to leave this house. Rarity didn’t look like a mare who seemed to have forgiven Chrysalis for arranging the room. She was already at the door, opened it and left. What she didn’t know was that Sweetie Belle was calling for Chrysalis to return. But Chrysalis didn’t want to go back. Not now that Rarity shouted at her. Chapter 5Chrysalis wanted to cry for making Rarity angry. Would Rarity’s other friends be angry? She hoped not. “Why are you crying, Chrysalis?” Chrysalis looked back and saw Applejack with a concerned look. She didn’t know what to say. Because Applejack was a friend of Rarity, Chrysalis feared that Applejack would be mad at her. But she didn’t want to lie. She had to tell the truth, “It’s about Rarity”, she began. “What’s up with her?” wanted to know Applejack. “I planned to spend this day with Rarity, but when I got to her room, I thought about clear up the room for her. But when Rarity went upstairs, she was surprised before she got mad at me,” replied Chrysalis, now sad. “I wanted to spend the day with her. But after what she felt, I don’t even know if it’s a good idea anymore” Applejack was annoyed, but wasn’t directed at Chrysalis, “Don’t worry. I’ll talk to Rarity about it. She should know that it’s not just her work and her clothes that matter. She should have been more understanding” Chrysalis smiled at that, “After you do that, can I spend the whole day with you?” Applejack smiled, “Of course, Chrysalis”, she said, before heading toward Boutique Carrousel. Chrysalis watched Applejack leave before letting out a breath. Chrysalis knew the ponies that she kidnapped when she was evil has forgave her, but some of the ponies didn’t seem to have forgiven her yet. “Chrysalis, is everything all right?” Chrysalis’s ears brightened, she looked back and saw that it was Twilight Sparkle, who was looking at the former Changeling queen with a concerned look. Chrysalis certainly didn’t expect the pony that she had always seen as her enemy was worried about her. She didn’t know if she should talk. Twilight Sparkle noticed the silence and smiled, “Come on, Chrysalis. You can trust me” “Do you promise not to be mad at me?” asked Chrysalis. “Cross my heart, hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye”, promised Twilight Sparkle. Chrysalis didn’t know what just happened, “what was that?” “I made the Pinkie Promise”, answered Twilight Sparkle. “What is the Pinkie Promise?” wanted to know Chrysalis. “That’s when you promise something that won’t break,” answered Twilight Sparkle. “So could you tell me what bothers you?” “Ok. Do you know Rarity?” said Chrysalis. “Yes, Chrysalis. She’s my closest friend”, answered Twilight Sparkle with a smile. “I planned to spend the day with her. When she and I arrived at the house. I realized that her room was messy. I organized for her to be surprised, and she was surprised, but soon became angry with me. So I left her house”, replied Chrysalis. “Would you like me to talk to her?” offered Twilight Sparkle. “No, Twilight. Applejack has already go talking to her”, replied Chrysalis. “While Applejack doesn’t come back, would you like to spend time with me?” offered Twilight Sparkle with a smile. As much as Chrysalis meant to say “no”, she decided to accept, “ok. But it’s only until Applejack comes back”, said Chrysalis. “Okay, Chrysalis”, said Twilight Sparkle, before her and Chrysalis starting to walk. When Applejack arrived at Boutique Carrousel, she knocked on the door. Sound of footsteps were heard. Rarity smiled as she saw Applejack, “Applejack, darling. Need something?” “No. But we need to talk”, replied Applejack, not at all happy. Rarity was confused, “but what about, darling?” “You will see. Can I come in to talk to you?” said Applejack. “Sure, darling”, replied Rarity. Applejack walked into Boutique Carrousel and Rarity closed the door, “What did you want to talk to me about?” “It’s about Chrysalis,” answered Applejack. “Is it true you got mad at her just because Chrysalis wanted to help you?” “Of course dear. She kept my materials for my new dress and I had to find the materials that I had worn”, replied Rarity, as if what she did was right and justifying. “Rarity, could you at least once stop thinking about just dresses? Damn it. Chrysalis was sad and upset that you were mad at her”, said Applejack, now angry. Rarity pretended to be surprised, “I like dresses. Ok, dear? I planned to make her a dress if she hadn’t cleaned my room and if I didn’t have to find the materials” “But you should still be more understandable. She just wanted to help you and make you happy and you made her sad. Now, seriously: Did you really forgive her for what she did?” “Of course I forgave her, dear. We all forgave her”, replied Rarity. “So why do I think you didn’t forgive her?” wanted to know Applejack. “But I forgave her, Applejack!” exclaimed Rarity, already getting annoyed. “So if you forgave her, apologize to her”, Applejack Didn’t ask, she sent. Rarity’s ears went down, “yeah. You’re right, darling. Will she forgive me?” Applejack smiled, “I’m sure, sugarcube” “Can I make her a dress for comfort?” asked Rarity. “Don’t you think it’s best to forget about this dress business for a while?” asked Applejack. “Darling, I promised her a dress”, explained Rarity. Applejack made a small O with her mouth before recovering, “ok, Rarity. Just doesn’t take long”, she said. At Friendship Castle, Twilight Sparkle and Chrysalis were reading together. Chrysalis couldn’t deny that she was having fun. She wasn’t a fan of books, but she was kind of enjoying it. Twilight Sparkle finished reading her book and flew to a shelf to pick up another book. The book she got was from Daring Do. Before Golden Oka’s Tree Library was destroyed by Tirek, she had the entire Daring Do book collection. But it seemed that in the castle she lived, it haved too. She didn’t know how. Whether it was because of the castle having all the Equestria books or if all the books they had in her old Ponyville home went here, but she hoped that was the second option. Suddenly they heard a knock at the door. Twilight Sparkle went to the door, “I answer”, Chrysalis decided to follow the lavender alicorn. When Chrysalis saw Rarity, she was afraid, “Rarity? Applejack? Do you need something?” “Rarity wants to talk to Chrysalis”, replied Applejack. Twilight Sparkle looked back and saw that Chrysalis was scared. She looked back at Applejack, “She can’t right now”, she lied. “Twilight…” said Applejack not believing the lie. “What is it? It’s true”, said Twilight Sparkle with a smile of possible nervousness. “Well, you could hand this dress over to Chrysalis. It’s just that I wanted to tell her that I’m so sorry that I got mad at her”, said Rarity, handing to Twilight Sparkle a black dress with green colors. Chrysalis decided to approach, “is it true? Did you come to apologize to me?” “Of course dear. If it’s any consolation, I can spend the rest of the day with you”, said Rarity. “I think so, Rarity”, agreed Chrysalis. As much as she wanted to spend time with Twilight, she decided to spend this day with Rarity so the white unicorn wouldn’t be sad and not think she didn’t forgive her. “Wait a moment there” Chrysalis and Rarity looked back, “you don’t remember you told me you were going to spend this day with me?” recalled Applejack. Chrysalis remembered. It was true. She had forgotten, “You’re right, Applejack,” she looked at Rarity, “Rarity, is it okay if I spend the rest of the day with Applejack? It’s just that I had promised to spend the rest of the day with her” Rarity smiled, “Of course, darling” Chrysalis smiled with relief. For a moment she thought Rarity wouldn’t accept.
Chapter 1Chrysalis emerged from under the stones of her throne and from the walls of the hive throne room as it sizzled. But she stopped when she realized that all the ponies and the reformed Changelings were looking at Chrysalis as if they were ready to attack. Well, except Starlight Glimmer, who looked at Chrysalis with a possible look of understanding. Chrysalis seemed uncertain with what she saw. Her subjects betrayed her. Starlight Glimmer offered Chrysalis a hull, “you don’t have to be this way”, Chrysalis looked at Starlight Glimmer’s hull. “You can still be the queen you always wanted to be”, continued Starlight Glimmer, still with her hoof extended. Starlight Glimmer and Chrysalis began to approach their hooves, until when the hooves touched, Chrysalis felt her body glow pink, she floated and the pink glow formed like when Thorax shared love. The ponies and the Changelings covered their eyes with their hooves. When the glow stopped, they stopped covering their eyes and opened them, everypony And everychangeling was surprised by what they saw: Chrysalis was now white and its mane was now light blue. Chrysalis looked at her in surprise. Rarity let out a sigh of surprise. “Does anypony have a mirror?” asked Chrysalis. Rarity popped up a giant mirror and Chrysalis noticed that she was quite different, “wow”, was all Chrysalis could say. She put the hoof on her chin. “Darling, you look fabulous”, said Rarity with a smile as she held the mirror with her magic. Chrysalis smiled at the compliment. “Thank you, Rarity”, said Chrysalis, still smiling. Rarity closed her eyes as she smiled. Thorax approached Chrysalis, “Chrysalis, now that I am, let’s Just say, the King of Changelings, would you like to rule with me?” Chrysalis looked at Thorax, who now stopped. Chrysalis looked uncertain. She wasn’t a good queen to her subjects. Did she really deserve to rule with Thorax after what she did? “I don’t know, Thorax. I wasn’t even a good queen to you all” Thorax moved closer to Chrysalis, who was staring at the ground, “look, this isn’t entirely true, Chrysalis” Chrysalis looked at Thorax, “but it’s true, Thorax. I didn’t want you and others to share love. I even considered you a threat to the hive” “Well, that is true. But I forgive you. And I’m sure the other Changelings have forgiven you too” Chrysalis looked at the Changelings and they nodded as they smiled. Chrysalis was glad her subjects forgave her, but she still didn’t know if she should continue to rule as Queen of the Changelings, “I’m glad about that. But I don’t know if I should continue to rule as Queen of Changelings” The Changelings were surprised, “But why, Chrysalis?” Chrysalis stared at the floor, “as I said before: I didn’t want you and the others to share the love. I even considered you a threat to the hive” “But Chrysalis, me and the other Changelings have forgiven you”, said Thorax, still confused. “Yes. But I fear the ponies haven’t forgiven me for my actions”, said Chrysalis. Thorax looked at the princesses, Starlight Glimmer, Trixie, Twilight, Discord, Flurry Heart, Shining Armor, Spike, and the other Twilight friends. Everypony, began to think about it. Should they forgive Chrysalis for what she did? Fluttershy was the first to say, “I forgive you”, Discord hoped Fluttershy wouldn’t replace him. Who spoke later was Pinkie Pie, who was jumping to Chrysalis just before stopping, “Of course I forgave you. I’ll even have a party for you later” Rarity was the one who said now, “I forgiven you, darling” Applejack said as she approached before stopping, “I can see you’re sorry and not lying, so I forgave you” Rainbow Dash was flying, “I don’t know . I forgive you if you don’t be mean again” “But I won’t be mean”, said Chrysalis. “Then I forgive you”, said Rainbow Dash, now smiling. “The great and powerful Trixie forgives you”, said Trixie. “I’ve already forgiven you”, said Starlight Glimmer with a smile. “I dont know. I think so”, said Discord, still uncertain. Flurry Heart is unable to speak, so she Just nodded. “I forgive you, Chrysalis”, said Spike. “I forgive you”, said Shining Armor, although it seems a little uncertain. But Chrysalis didn’t seem to notice this uncertain. Now only Celestia, Luna, Candace and Twilight Sparkle remained. Would they forgive her? There was a silence. Chrysalis was bothered by the silence, “so what?” Who spoke first was Celestia, “Chrysalis, you may have done bad things. But I see that you are now sorry and now you’re reformed. So I think I can forgive you” Luna approached Chrysalis before stopping, “I wasn’t during the wedding when you attacked Canterlot. But my sister told me everything you did. I wouldn’t forgive you. But as I see you’re reformed, I forgive you” Candace thought for a moment before saying, “I forgive you” Twilight Sparkle approached Chrysalis as he said, “Chrysalis, I wouldn’t forgive you” Chrysalis was sad about that. “... But after I realized that Thorax was a good changeling I could realize that maybe the changelings weren’t bad” Chrysalis was surprised by this. Did that mean what she thought it was? “Chrysalis, I forgave you”, finished Twilight Sparkle with a smile. Chrysalis smiled. Yes. That was exactly what she was thinking. Twilight Sparkle forgave her. For a moment, she thought Twilight wouldn’t forgive. She was grateful that Twilight met Thorax. Because she knew that if Twilight hadn’t met Thorax, Twilight wouldn’t forgive her. After all that, Chrysalis decided that she would live in Ponyville. Although Thorax seems a little uncertain about that, but later he accepted Chrysalis’s choice. And Pinkie Pie, as promised, threw a party at Chrysalis at Sugarcube Corner. Rarity and Fluttershy were talking, Applejack and Rainbow Dash were competing in the apple picking game, Pinkie Pie was eating a piece of cake and Twilight Sparkle and Chrysalis were talking. “So, Chrysalis? How are you feeling?” asked Twilight Sparkle. Chrysalis didn’t know how to express herself, “I think so” “Is something bothering you?” asked Twilight Sparkle. Chrysalis let out a breath, “Yes, Twilight. There is something that is bothering me” “And what is it, Chrysalis?” asked Twilight Sparkle worriedly. “I fear the Ponyville ponies are afraid of me because of my past”, replied Chrysalis, now looking away. “I’m sure the Ponyville ponies don’t even know you. Just Canterlot’s”, said Twilight Sparkle with a smile. Chrysalis was able to cheer up, “yeah. Maybe you’re right. But I still fear that they will recognize me and be afraid of me” Twilight Sparkle, still smiling, said, “Don’t worry, I’m the princess of friendship. They know what I am doing. Then, they will probably realize that being with you, they will see that you are trustworthy” “Does anypony want cake?” asked Pinkie Pie as she cut the cake with a knife and placed each slice on a plate. Friends of Twilight, Twilight and Chrysalis went to where Pinkie Pie was. Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash ate the cake on their plate, Twilight, Rarity and Chrysalis ate the cake holding it with their magic. While Chrysalis ate, she wondered with who she should live. Maybe she should live with Fluttershy, because Fluttershy was kind. But there was also Pinkie Pie, who could cheer her up during the rough times. There was also Rarity and Applejack, but she thought it best not to live one of those two. Because from what Twilight told, Rarity spent the day creating new clothes and Applejack running a farm. She decided better not to live with them. Because they would spending the day busy with their jobs. But there was also Rainbow Dash. And there was Starlight Glimmer, who was the first to offer her friendship to her. She couldn’t decide which one to live with. “Chrysalis, is everything okay?” asked Twilight Sparkle, now looking at Chrysalis. Chrysalis looked at Twilight Sparkle, “I’m just undecided” “Undecided what?” asked Twilight Sparkle. “Which of you should I live with”, replied Chrysalis. The Twilight friends looked at Chrysalis, “Why don’t you spend a day with one of us and who you like spending time with? You can live with who you liked spending time with”, said Twilight Sparkle. Chrysalis looked at Twilight Sparkle, “It’s a good idea” “Would you like to spend the day with who today after the party?” asked Twilight Sparkle. “if the party isn’t until night, I think with Fluttershy”, replied Chrysalis. Fluttershy, in response, closed her eyes as she smiled.
Chapter 2When the party was over, it was already night. It was almost midnight. Pinkie Pie watched Chrysalis and her other friends leave Sugarcube Corner. Chrysalis followed Fluttershy to the house. She wondered what Fluttershy’s house would be like, “Fluttershy” Fluttershy looked at Chrysalis, “yes?” “Where do you live?” asked Chrysalis. “Near Everfree Forest”, replied Fluttershy. “Aren’t you afraid an animal will attack you?” asked Chrysalis a little worried. “What? No. All animals are my friends”, replied Fluttershy as she smiled. Chrysalis smiled at that. When they arrived, Chrysalis was surprised by how much animal Fluttershy had indoors and out. She wanted to know why Fluttershy had so many animals, “Why do you have so many animals, Fluttershy?” Fluttershy looked at Chrysalis, “I’m the Ponyville vet. I take care of all the animals” “Don’t you find that too much work?” asked Chrysalis. “It’s really easy for me”, replied Fluttershy, still smiling. “If you find it easy, okay then”, said Chrysalis with a smile. When they entered the house, the animals were startled to see Chrysalis and hid. Fluttershy went to the hiding places that the animals hid and told them that Chrysalis wouldn’t hurt them. The animals relied on Fluttershy, although they still seem uncertain about Chrysalis. Because Chrysalis was a Changeling. They feared that Chrysalis would suck their love. Chrysalis didn’t know that the animals knew and feared the Changelings. It made her uncomfortable. Would living with Fluttershy be a good idea? Okay, maybe that just happens today and not anymore, but she feared it would happen every day. Maybe living with Fluttershy isn’t a good idea… “Chrysalis, I’m going to prepare dinner. Feel free to explore the house”, said Fluttershy, now looking at Chrysalis. Chrysalis looked at Fluttershy. “Oh. Ok”, said Chrysalis. Fluttershy went to the kitchen. When Chrysalis was out of her sight, she decided to explore the house. As she explored, Chrysalis noticed that the animals were afraid of her and hid. Chrysalis wanted to talk to Fluttershy, but she didn’t want to interrupt what Fluttershy was doing. She went upstairs and saw pictures of Discord with Fluttershy. She wondered why Discord wasn’t with them. Suddenly a glow appeared in the room, Chrysalis descended the steps and saw Discord in a tourist suit, with sunglasses and two suitcases. " Fluttershy. I’m here”, said Discord, now looking for her friend. Discord entered the kitchen and saw Fluttershy. “Fluttershy!” said Discord cheerfully. Fluttershy stopped what she was doing and smiled when he saw Discord, “Discord!” They hugged. Chrysalis just observed this beautiful scene. She wondered if any of the ponies that helped her redemption liked her. Discord felt he was being watched and saw Chrysalis watching, “what are you doing here? Are you planning to hurt my Fluttershy?!” Chrysalis was startled by that. “Discord. She’s good now. Don’t you remember?” said Fluttershy. Discord paused to think, “no. I think I forgot” “If it’s this, It’s okay. Could you apologize to her?” asked Fluttershy politely. “All for you, Fluttershy”, said Discord said as he looked at Fluttershy before approaching Chrysalis. And make a bow. “Chrysalis, I’m so sorry for my behavior”, said Discord with his eyes closed. “You don’t have to be formal with me. I’m not even queen of the Changelings anymore”, said Chrysalis. Discord stopped bowing and opened his eyes in surprise, “oh! It is true! How distracted of me” “Dinner is ready”, said Fluttershy. Chrysalis and Discord went to the table. Discord obviously sat next to Fluttershy. Chrysalis despite appreciating their friendship, she still wondered if she was going to have a friend. Fluttershy served her, Discord and Chrysalis. The food was beef stroganoff. As they ate, Chrysalis wondered if it was good to live here. Because Fluttershy already had a friend, and it seemed she didn’t care so much about the former Queen of the Changeling. Maybe she should leave when Fluttershy and Discord went to sleep. No. She couldn’t come out of nowhere. She had to at least warn. Decided this, she began to eat. Lucky, Fluttershy or Discord didn’t find it odd that she didn’t start eating. When Chrysalis, Discord and Fluttershy had finished dinner, Fluttershy and Discord had tea. Chrysalis found it strange. The two had just finished eating and now they would drink tea? That was something she would never understand. She decided to explore the upstairs further. She barely explored right because Discord showed up. Arriving in the hallway, she saw pictures of Fluttershy’s friends and some pictures of Fluttershy with Discord. She looked ahead and saw a door at the end of the corridor. Chrysalis went to the door and opened it with a hoof, when she opened it, she was surprised to see Fluttershy’s room. But what surprised her most was the bed. The bed had two pillows, as if two ponies could sleep. She didn’t want to think about it, but she began to wonder if Fluttershy and Discord were together. She decided to go out and stay downstairs, along with Fluttershy and Discord. She just hoped it wasn’t bothering her. Arriving downstairs, she saw Fluttershy on a couch and Discord on another couch. Chrysalis approached and sat next to Fluttershy. She couldn’t help noticing that she felt ignored. Maybe she had better go and stay with another friend. “Chrysalis, is everything okay?” asked Fluttershy, now looking at Chrysalis. Chrysalis looked uncertain. She didn’t want to make Fluttershy sad. But she needed to tell the truth about what she was feeling, “no” “What happened?” asked Fluttershy. “It’s just that I feel like you’re ignoring me”, replied Chrysalis, now looking to the side. “Why?” asked Fluttershy. “It’s just that I feel like you’re Just staying with Discord”, replied Chrysalis. “Oh my…” said Fluttershy surprised and possibly sad. Her ears were down. Discord was surprised and approached Chrysalis, “How dare you make Fluttershy sad?!” Fluttershy tried to calm Discord, “It’s all right, Discord. She is right” Discord was surprised as he looked at Fluttershy, “What?” “She’s right,” Fluttershy repeated what he said. “I’ve been spending these last minutes just with you and not with Chrysalis. I should’ve stay with Chrysalis a bit” Discord was speechless. Fluttershy looked at Chrysalis now, “Chrysalis, if you want to leave, I understand” Chrysalis knew that maybe she had the chance. She looked out the window and saw the full moon. She didn’t want to wake up others from her new friends. So she would sleep here and tomorrow she would choose another of her friends to live with, “Fluttershy, I’m going to sleep here today. But tomorrow I plan to choose another of your friends to live with” Fluttershy was still sad, “ok…” Discord hugged Fluttershy as he looked at Chrysalis with a disapproving look. Chrysalis was bothered by it. Did she hurt Fluttershy’s feelings?
Chapter 3When morning came, Chrysalis got up from the couch. Yes. She slept on the couch. Although Fluttershy insisted Chrysalis sleep in the bed, Chrysalis said she would rather sleep on the couch. Fluttershy accepted this and Discord was relieved by it. When she sat down, she saw Discord beside her. Discord seemed a little annoyed to see Chrysalis sitting next to her, “Why don’t you move? This is where Fluttershy sits” “I’m sorry”, said Chrysalis sadly. Chrysalis sat where she had sat yesterday. Fluttershy set the pancakes on the table. When Fluttershy sat at the table, Discord hugged Fluttershy. Fluttershy hugged him back. Chrysalis couldn’t deny that Fluttershy and Discord seemed to be together. She wondered if it was true. She looked at her pancake and began to eat. Discord and Fluttershy came out of the hug and began to eat. After they had finished eating, Chrysalis left Fluttershy’s house and went looking for another friend she had. She planned to go stay with Pinkie Pie now. Maybe with Pinkie Pie would be easier? Suddenly, something hit her and she fell to the floor. “Sorry, Chrysalis” Chrysalis knew that voice. She looked at the owner of the voice and saw Rainbow Dash, “ah. Sorry, Rainbow” Rainbow Dash stood up, “It’s fine. I should have paid attention to where I was flying” “Where were you flying?” asked Chrysalis, now curious. “I was practicing some maneuvers for the Wonderbolts show”, replied Rainbow Dash. Now Chrysalis was confused, “What is a Wonderbolt?” Rainbow Dash was surprised, “Don’t you know what a Wonderbolt is?!” “I am a Changeling. How would I know?” said Chrysalis. Rainbow Dash was still shocked by this, but soon recovered, “okay. Okay. Would you like me to tell you the story of the Wonderbolts?” “Is it a long story?” asked Chrysalis. Rainbow Dash sighed, “yes. And it’s very long” “I think it’s better not to tell. I have an appointment”, said Chrysalis. Rainbow Dash looked possibly insecure and angry. She approached Chrysalis, “Where are you going? Do you plan to steal love from the ponies?! ” Chrysalis was surprised by this, “what? I was reformed. Don’t you remember?” “Yes. But I want to make sure you don’t do something bad”, said Rainbow Dash, without taking the arrogance from her face. Chrysalis looked like maybe spending time with Rainbow Dash wouldn’t be as good as she looked. Maybe she didn’t need to spend the day with Rainbow Dash. Chrysalis decided to run away. “Hey! Get back here!” exclaimed Rainbow Dash, before flying after Chrysalis. But luckily for Chrysalis, Discord grabbed Rainbow Dash’s tail with his magic. Discord shook his head as he smiled. Rainbow Dash crossed the hooves. Pinkie Pie was making Cupcakes until she heard the sound of the door opening and closing. Curious, she went to see who it was. But she soon smiled to see that it was just Chrysalis. Pinkie Pie went to Chrysalis, “hi, Chrysalis. Why did you come to Sugarcube Corner? Planning to eat a cupcake?” Chrysalis startled and looked the way the voice was coming. But she soon relieved herself, “ah. Hi, Pinkie ” “Hi Chrysalis. Why did you come to Sugarcube Corner? Do you plan on eating Cupcake or a cake? Or maybe…” “I came here to hide from Rainbow Dash” Pinkie Pie was confused and struggled not to laugh, “what? Why?” “Rainbow Dash doubt I’m still mean. She almost tried to attack me”, replied Chrysalis, still tired of running. “Do you know where she is? Maybe I can make her forget it with a cupcake or a party”, asked Pinkie Pie. “No. I didn’t even look back”, replied Chrysalis. “So, would you like to help me make cupcakes? I need help”, asked Pinkie Pie. “I think so. That will at least make me forget about Rainbow Dash”, replied Chrysalis. Pinkie Pie smiled happily, “So follow me”, Pinkie Pie started to jump into the kitchen. Chrysalis followed her. Arriving in the kitchen, Chrysalis saw some Cupcakes ready. Pinkie Pie put a chef’s hat on Chrysalis. Pinkie Pie was already wearing a chef’s hat. “Hope you’re ready to make cupcakes!” exclaimed Pinkie Pie excitedly. Chrysalis tried to show happiness. And she did it. After making the Cupcakes, Chrysalis and Pinkie ate the Cupcakes on the table. The cupcakes were very good. After they finished eating, Chrysalis decided to spend all day with Pinkie Pie. And what Pinkie Pie did was organize a party. Of course, she invited her friends. Chrysalis and Pinkie Pie waited for the others to come. Everypony smiled when they saw Chrysalis and Pinkie. Well, except Rainbow Dash who glared at seeing Chrysalis. Chrysalis was scared. “You!!!” exclaimed Rainbow Dash about to fly to Chrysalis, but outside hindered by Applejack, who was holding Rainbow Dash’s tail with her mouth. “Calm down”, said Applejack, still holding Rainbow Dash’s tail. Chrysalis was scared of that. Twilight Sparkle realized this and went to Rainbow, “Rainbow! Stop now this instant!” Rainbow Dash stopped flying and looked at Twilight confusedly, “What is, Twilight?” “Can’t you see you’re scaring Chrysalis? Apologize to her”, said Twilight Sparkle, speaking in an unhappy way. Rainbow Dash seemed uncertain about that. She? Apologize? “No!” Twilight didn’t buy it, “Rainbow, stop being cocky and apologize” “No!” exclaimed Rainbow Dash as she shook her head. “Rainbow, apologize”, said Twilight Sparkle. “I said no!!” exclaimed Rainbow Dash before hitting Chrysalis. Chrysalis screamed in pain as she fell to the floor. Everypony was surprised even Rainbow Dash. They went to Chrysalis. “Chrysalis, I’m so sorry. I didn’t want to hit you”, said Rainbow Dash regretfully. Chrysalis looked at Rainbow Dash with a smile, “Okay, Rainbow. I forgive you” Twilight looked at Chrysalis, “Chrysalis, does it hurt?” Chrysalis touched her cheek to know if it hurt, “well, it still hurts because of the punch I got” Twilight Sparkle looked at Rainbow in an unhappy way, “what? It’s not my fault if Chrysalis was too close!” “She wouldn’t have hurt herself if you weren’t being so arrogant!” exclaimed Twilight Sparkle. “I wouldn’t have been arrogant if you weren’t asking me to apologize to Chrysalis!” exclaimed Rainbow Dash. “Girls, stop fighting. Don’t you realize a friend of ours is hurt?” Fluttershy broke off the fight between Twilight and Rainbow. Twilight and Rainbow stopped fighting and felt guilty. Twilight looked at Chrysalis with a regretful look, “Chrysalis, I’m so sorry you have to see me and Rainbow fight” “It’s fine, Twilight. I know you were just worried about me”, said Chrysalis. Twilight smiled at that.
Chapter 4After the party, Chrysalis stayed at Sugarcube Corner with Pinkie Pie, Mr. and Mrs. Cake had dinner, they were in the kitchen, while Pinkie and Chrysalis talked. Pinkie Pie kept talking nonstop. Chrysalis couldn’t deny that she was getting a headache. Chrysalis had her head on the table as she covered her ears with her hooves. But this pony don’t keep talking for a second. That way there is no pony and creature that can stand it. “Dinner is ready!” exclaimed Mrs Cup Cake, before going to where Pinkie and Chrysalis were sitting. Chrysalis couldn’t deny that she now had a headache. “Are you ok Chrysalis?” asked Pinkie Pie, noting that Chrysalis wasn’t eating. Chrysalis looked at Pinkie Pie, “I have a headache” “Why don’t you eat? Maybe it’s hungry”, said Pinkie Pie with a smile. Although Chrysalis wanted to agree with that, she knew the reason she had a headache wasn’t because of hunger, “thanks, Pinkie. But I’m not hungry” Pinkie Pie, still smiling, said, “Let’s go. I’m sure after you eat, you’ll be better” As much as Chrysalis meant to say “no”, she decided to believe Pinkie Pie’s words, “ok, Pinkie”, Pinkie Pie smiled at that. When Chrysalis finished eating, Chrysalis couldn’t help but notice that she still had a headache. She had a hoof on her forehead, “so? Is it better?” asked Pinkie Pie with a smile. Chrysalis looked at Pinkie Pie, “no. I still have a headache” Pinkie Pie, still smiling, said, “I know what will make you better: A party!” “Thank you, Pinkie. But at the moment I’m not feeling well”, said Chrysalis. “C’mon. The party will make you feel better. It will cheer you up”, insisted Pinkie Pie with a smile. “No, Pinkie. In a few hours I plan to sleep”, said Chrysalis with her hoof on her head. “Okie dokie loki”, said Pinkie Pie with a smile even though Chrysalis had denied the party she would like to throw at Chrysalis. Chrysalis decided to go up. Pinkie Pie watched Chrysalis rise. When Chrysalis arrived in Pinkie’s room, she lay on the bed, so that the headache would get a little better. But one thing she knew: As much as she wanted to live with Pinkie Pie, she knew she couldn’t. Because if she lived with the pink mare, Chrysalis would have headaches every day. Suddenly she heard the sound of heels. She looked at the door and saw Pinkie Pie with a cake, “Chrysalis I brought you a cake” Chrysalis smiled, “thank you, Pinkie. But I already had dinner. I’m not hungry anymore” “Ah, come on. The cake will make you better”, begged Pinkie Pie. “I’m sorry. But I’m already full”, said Chrysalis. “Please. Just a piece”, asked Pinkie Pie. “I said no”, Chrysalis tried to say without being rude. Pinkie Pie looked thoughtful before answering, “okie dokie lookie”, Pinkie Pie left the room to eat the cake on the table. Chrysalis for a moment thought Pinkie Pie would insist. She was relieved that Pinkie didn’t insist. Because she would hate herself if she screamed at Pinkie Pie. It’s been several hours, and when Pinkie Pie has finished eating the cake, she went up to her room and was surprised to see Chrysalis sleeping. The former Changeling queen was sleeping over the blanket. She was snoring. Pinkie Pie let Chrysalis sleep and went to her bed to sleep too. She lay back on the bed, carefully removing the blanket so she wouldn’t to wake her friend. Lucky, she didn’t wake up Chrysalis, it just made her move while she slept. When Chrysalis woke up, she felt sunshine on her face. She covered her face with a hoof. She didn’t want to wake up yet. She turned to the side, but felt somepony else in bed. She opened her eye and was surprised to see that it was Pinkie Pie. She got up scared. She didn’t expect Pinkie Pie to sleep with her. But, she lost her balance and fell off the bed. She shouted. Pinkie Pie heard a noise and woke up. Pinkie Pie saw that it was Chrysalis that had fallen. Pinkie Pie fought not to laugh at this, “are you ok?” “Yes. But I think I hit my butt on the floor”, replied Chrysalis, now touching the sore part. “Does it hurt?” asked Pinkie Pie. “A little”, replied Chrysalis. “Is there anything you’d like me to do for you?” asked Pinkie Pie. “No. It will soon stop hurting”, replied Chrysalis, now rising from the floor. Pinkie Pie got out of bed. They went downstairs to eat. When they arrived downstairs, she realized it was Waffles. Chrysalis never tasted Waffles, so she hoped it was good. Chrysalis and Pinkie Pie sat together. Chrysalis noticed that Pinkie Pie was eating very fast. Chrysalis was surprised by this. She wondered how Pinkie Pie didn’t choke on eating so fast. When ChrysaLis finished eating, she left Sugarcube Corner. She began to wonder who she should spend the day with. She has spent a day with Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie. Missing Rarity, Applejack, Rainbow Dash and Twilight Sparkle. Who should she choose? “Chrysalis!” Chrysalis glanced left and saw Rarity running toward her. Chrysalis was confused, “Rarity? What happened?” “I’m going to buy some materials for my new dress. Would you like to shop with me?” “Yes, Rarity”, replied Chrysalis with a smile. “Thank you dear. As a reward, I’ll make a dress just for you”, said Rarity. “No need, Rarity”, said Chrysalis. “I insist”, insisted Rarity. Chrysalis thought for a moment before answering, “ok, Rarity” Rarity and Chrysalis started walking toward a supplies store. When Rarity opened the door with a hull, they heard a tinkling sound. Chrysalis looked up and saw a small bell near the door. Possibly to warn the store owner pony that customers have arrived. The store’s pony was a mare, she looked at both of them, “Rarity, Chry ...” when she saw Chrysalis, the mare hid. Chrysalis was surprised. She didn’t expect this mare to be afraid of her. Rarity decided to try to calm the mare, “Er… I came here to buy sewing supplies. Do you have?” The mare looked at Rarity. But it was still shaking, “Y-yes”, she pointed to where the sewing materials were. Rarity and Chrysalis came to the place. Chrysalis watched Rarity pick up a roll of fabric, sewing thread, and other sewing materials. Chrysalis looked back and saw that the mare was still on the ground, shaking with fear. Chrysalis was annoyed that Rarity didn’t realize that. It was as if Rarity didn’t care. Maybe she shouldn’t spend the day with Rarity. But she also wanted to give Rarity a chance. “Chrysalis, I already bought things”, said Rarity, holding in her magic a shopping bag. Chrysalis came out of her thoughts and looked at Rarity. She was going to give Rarity a chance. She was going to be with Rarity for a whole day. When Rarity and Chrysalis arrived at the Carousel Boutique, Sweetie Belle ran to Rarity. But she stopped when she saw Chrysalis and fled away. Chrysalis didn’t understand why the ponies were afraid of her. Even though she was reformed. Rarity sighed before looking at Chrysalis, “I’m going to tell my little sister that you’re good now, okay?” Chrysalis looked at Rarity, “ok” Rarity went as far as Sweetie Belle went, while Chrysalis decided to explore Rarity’s house. Upon arriving in the room, Chrysalis marveled at Rarity’s room. She entered the room to get a better look. She realized it was a mess. Chrysalis wanted to tidy up Rarity’s room. She picked up the things on the floor and put them in the drawers. When she was done, Chrysalis heard footsteps, “darling, I’ve talked to ...” But Rarity stopped when she saw that her room was all tidy. “Did you like it? I got it done”, said Chrysalis said with a smile. Rarity was still in shock, but then said, “Why did you do that?!” exclaimed Rarity still shocked. “It was a mess. I thought you would like me to have helped you”, replied Chrysalis. “My room was messy because I was making a new dress. Now I’ll have to get the materials back”, said Rarity, now sad. Chrysalis was sad, “I thought you would like me to help you” Rarity was annoyed, “happy? Happy?!” She jumped up at Chrysalis, before gritting her teeth, but managed to control herself and headed for the drawers to clear the things that had been put away. Chrysalis was offended by this. She needed to apologize, “Rarity, I…” Rarity turned back unhappy before returning to her task. Chrysalis decided to leave. She planned to leave this house. Rarity didn’t look like a mare who seemed to have forgiven Chrysalis for arranging the room. She was already at the door, opened it and left. What she didn’t know was that Sweetie Belle was calling for Chrysalis to return. But Chrysalis didn’t want to go back. Not now that Rarity shouted at her.
Chapter 5Chrysalis wanted to cry for making Rarity angry. Would Rarity’s other friends be angry? She hoped not. “Why are you crying, Chrysalis?” Chrysalis looked back and saw Applejack with a concerned look. She didn’t know what to say. Because Applejack was a friend of Rarity, Chrysalis feared that Applejack would be mad at her. But she didn’t want to lie. She had to tell the truth, “It’s about Rarity”, she began. “What’s up with her?” wanted to know Applejack. “I planned to spend this day with Rarity, but when I got to her room, I thought about clear up the room for her. But when Rarity went upstairs, she was surprised before she got mad at me,” replied Chrysalis, now sad. “I wanted to spend the day with her. But after what she felt, I don’t even know if it’s a good idea anymore” Applejack was annoyed, but wasn’t directed at Chrysalis, “Don’t worry. I’ll talk to Rarity about it. She should know that it’s not just her work and her clothes that matter. She should have been more understanding” Chrysalis smiled at that, “After you do that, can I spend the whole day with you?” Applejack smiled, “Of course, Chrysalis”, she said, before heading toward Boutique Carrousel. Chrysalis watched Applejack leave before letting out a breath. Chrysalis knew the ponies that she kidnapped when she was evil has forgave her, but some of the ponies didn’t seem to have forgiven her yet. “Chrysalis, is everything all right?” Chrysalis’s ears brightened, she looked back and saw that it was Twilight Sparkle, who was looking at the former Changeling queen with a concerned look. Chrysalis certainly didn’t expect the pony that she had always seen as her enemy was worried about her. She didn’t know if she should talk. Twilight Sparkle noticed the silence and smiled, “Come on, Chrysalis. You can trust me” “Do you promise not to be mad at me?” asked Chrysalis. “Cross my heart, hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye”, promised Twilight Sparkle. Chrysalis didn’t know what just happened, “what was that?” “I made the Pinkie Promise”, answered Twilight Sparkle. “What is the Pinkie Promise?” wanted to know Chrysalis. “That’s when you promise something that won’t break,” answered Twilight Sparkle. “So could you tell me what bothers you?” “Ok. Do you know Rarity?” said Chrysalis. “Yes, Chrysalis. She’s my closest friend”, answered Twilight Sparkle with a smile. “I planned to spend the day with her. When she and I arrived at the house. I realized that her room was messy. I organized for her to be surprised, and she was surprised, but soon became angry with me. So I left her house”, replied Chrysalis. “Would you like me to talk to her?” offered Twilight Sparkle. “No, Twilight. Applejack has already go talking to her”, replied Chrysalis. “While Applejack doesn’t come back, would you like to spend time with me?” offered Twilight Sparkle with a smile. As much as Chrysalis meant to say “no”, she decided to accept, “ok. But it’s only until Applejack comes back”, said Chrysalis. “Okay, Chrysalis”, said Twilight Sparkle, before her and Chrysalis starting to walk. When Applejack arrived at Boutique Carrousel, she knocked on the door. Sound of footsteps were heard. Rarity smiled as she saw Applejack, “Applejack, darling. Need something?” “No. But we need to talk”, replied Applejack, not at all happy. Rarity was confused, “but what about, darling?” “You will see. Can I come in to talk to you?” said Applejack. “Sure, darling”, replied Rarity. Applejack walked into Boutique Carrousel and Rarity closed the door, “What did you want to talk to me about?” “It’s about Chrysalis,” answered Applejack. “Is it true you got mad at her just because Chrysalis wanted to help you?” “Of course dear. She kept my materials for my new dress and I had to find the materials that I had worn”, replied Rarity, as if what she did was right and justifying. “Rarity, could you at least once stop thinking about just dresses? Damn it. Chrysalis was sad and upset that you were mad at her”, said Applejack, now angry. Rarity pretended to be surprised, “I like dresses. Ok, dear? I planned to make her a dress if she hadn’t cleaned my room and if I didn’t have to find the materials” “But you should still be more understandable. She just wanted to help you and make you happy and you made her sad. Now, seriously: Did you really forgive her for what she did?” “Of course I forgave her, dear. We all forgave her”, replied Rarity. “So why do I think you didn’t forgive her?” wanted to know Applejack. “But I forgave her, Applejack!” exclaimed Rarity, already getting annoyed. “So if you forgave her, apologize to her”, Applejack Didn’t ask, she sent. Rarity’s ears went down, “yeah. You’re right, darling. Will she forgive me?” Applejack smiled, “I’m sure, sugarcube” “Can I make her a dress for comfort?” asked Rarity. “Don’t you think it’s best to forget about this dress business for a while?” asked Applejack. “Darling, I promised her a dress”, explained Rarity. Applejack made a small O with her mouth before recovering, “ok, Rarity. Just doesn’t take long”, she said. At Friendship Castle, Twilight Sparkle and Chrysalis were reading together. Chrysalis couldn’t deny that she was having fun. She wasn’t a fan of books, but she was kind of enjoying it. Twilight Sparkle finished reading her book and flew to a shelf to pick up another book. The book she got was from Daring Do. Before Golden Oka’s Tree Library was destroyed by Tirek, she had the entire Daring Do book collection. But it seemed that in the castle she lived, it haved too. She didn’t know how. Whether it was because of the castle having all the Equestria books or if all the books they had in her old Ponyville home went here, but she hoped that was the second option. Suddenly they heard a knock at the door. Twilight Sparkle went to the door, “I answer”, Chrysalis decided to follow the lavender alicorn. When Chrysalis saw Rarity, she was afraid, “Rarity? Applejack? Do you need something?” “Rarity wants to talk to Chrysalis”, replied Applejack. Twilight Sparkle looked back and saw that Chrysalis was scared. She looked back at Applejack, “She can’t right now”, she lied. “Twilight…” said Applejack not believing the lie. “What is it? It’s true”, said Twilight Sparkle with a smile of possible nervousness. “Well, you could hand this dress over to Chrysalis. It’s just that I wanted to tell her that I’m so sorry that I got mad at her”, said Rarity, handing to Twilight Sparkle a black dress with green colors. Chrysalis decided to approach, “is it true? Did you come to apologize to me?” “Of course dear. If it’s any consolation, I can spend the rest of the day with you”, said Rarity. “I think so, Rarity”, agreed Chrysalis. As much as she wanted to spend time with Twilight, she decided to spend this day with Rarity so the white unicorn wouldn’t be sad and not think she didn’t forgive her. “Wait a moment there” Chrysalis and Rarity looked back, “you don’t remember you told me you were going to spend this day with me?” recalled Applejack. Chrysalis remembered. It was true. She had forgotten, “You’re right, Applejack,” she looked at Rarity, “Rarity, is it okay if I spend the rest of the day with Applejack? It’s just that I had promised to spend the rest of the day with her” Rarity smiled, “Of course, darling” Chrysalis smiled with relief. For a moment she thought Rarity wouldn’t accept.
