Spike was calming down Thorax while Courtney and Starlight were calming down Cody.

“Well we are screwed, we have no magic and it’s not like my illusions are gonna save us.” Trixie ranted.

Starlight then got an idea and began talking to Trixie and Thorax on a plan.

Trixie and Thorax disguised as Trixie then distract the changeling patrol with the smoke bombs, Starlight notices that two of them didn’t go with the others.

“Well it’s not impressive but it was decent.” Discord confessed in a bored tone.

“Eh I’ll take it.” Trixie said.

Trixie and Thorax then regrouped with the others.

“I can’t believe I’m saying this but good job Starlight.” Courtney said impressed.

“Thanks Courtney, but I noticed two changelings didn’t go with the rest.” Starlight observed.

“Oh with an intruder here they went to protect the queen, good thinking Starlight.” Thorax confirmed.

As the group followed the changelings Courtney began speaking to Starlight.

“Hey I noticed you act weird whenever someone compliments you what’s with that?” Courtney asked curiously.

“Oh I just have a fear of being in charge ever since the village thing, I feel like I might relapse and become evil again.” Starlight reveals.

“I get it, well I must say the fact you even feel this way proves you changed, I just hope I can show Gwen and Scott I’m sorry too.” Courtney confesses sadly.

“Hey I’m sure they will forgive you.” Starlight encourages putting a hoof around Courtney.

“Thanks Starlight.” Courtney says softly.

“Oh look hide.” Starlight warned putting her and Courtney on the ground, where the rest were hiding.

“Even if I wanted to get in the entrance is full of guards there is no way we can get in.” Thorax shudders.

“We need a distraction.” Spike declares looking at everyone.

“Normally I’m the most distracting thing I can think of but without magic, eh.” Discord sighs.

“Well it can’t be Discord we’ll need him later when we destroy the throne.” Courtney reminds everyone.

Cody then sighs “Alright I’ll do it, if I fall tell my story.”

Cody then walks to the Changelings and begins speaking. “Good evening Changelings I have a song I’d like to sing for you.”

“Ahem I Love Paris In The Springtime.” Cody sings before the changelings begin chasing him.

The others then make it inside the room while Cody hides and loses the Changelings.

“Phew that was close now to find a way to the hive.” Cody tells himself before he moves he heard whimpering and was shocked to see it was Owen.

“Cody, over here.” Owen called out.

Cody was ecstatic to see Owen was okay and then began running over to see Owen stuck between two boulders.

“Dude it’s so great to see you, I’m stuck.” Owen cries out.

“You really are, and I should help you out but oh yeah nice try.” Cody then speaks.

“What do you mean buddy.” Owen begins tearing up.

“I’m separated from the group and I just so happen to see my best friend here yeah right I can smell a set up.” Cody said smirking before leaving.

“No I get it, I see why you’d think I’m not real.” Fake Owen spoke with a mischievous tone before a bunch of changelings surround Cody.

Cody then pees his pants in terror.

“Aw come on.” Cody whines annoyed.

“Get him.” Fake Owen commands.

The changelings then swarm Cody as he screams.
