Fall of Two Worlds: Changing Status

I woke. In complete shock. I had died. I felt my self die. I was in bliss after saving my friends. My friends? Where were they. Where was I? I had to get to them. But how? I looked around to see I was in the middle of a field. But not the one I had crashed into. What was going on? I heard voices suddenly and froze. Two Changelings were flying down near me. I shut my eyes and listened.

"Word came in from Barco." The first said.

"Oh yeah?" The second spoke. The two had relatively the same voices, but I could tell the difference. A little.

"Yeah. They still believe he is this guy." I felt a kick of a hoof. I hurt all over, I felt cuts and burns on me, probably from where I had fallen. My leg hurt again like it did whilst fighting the undead in the forest.

"Wow. They are so stupid these ponies." The two let out hissing noises, presumably their laugh.

"Anyway, we gotta go north. To Canterlot. The siege won't break without us." The first said and laughed again, as soon as I figured they were gone, I jumped up.

"I will save you." I vowed and flow north as fast as my wings could take me. I did about three sonic rainbooms during the trip.

Twilight Sparkle and the rest of the small army walked toward Canterlot, some Pegasi were flying, but most just walked. The human stopped in his tracks suddenly.

"What's wrong?" Rainbow asked. The army kept moving, but the mane six, Heart Breaker and Dari also stopped, looking onto the human.

"Everything. However, not for me." The human said, eyes flashing green. Twilight stepped back. Dari began to glow with energy.

"What?" Rainbow asked. Then the human began to change. His feathery wings dropped, replaced by strange bug like wings. A mishapen horn grew from his head, his eyes changed green and his body went dark. He became a bug like alicorn thing.

"Changeling!" Dari shouted and shot a spell at the imposter.

"Yes. I am a Changeling. Your 'human' is dead and buried. Well, dumped more like." The Changeling said and blocked the spell, suddenly shooting a spell of his own at Twilight. She dived out of the way and the spell exploded on the ground in a ball of green fire. When the smoke cleared, the Changeling was gone.

The group gathered round.

"So, the human really is. Dead." Pinkie Pie asked.

"Yes. And Derpy, she's heartbroken." Rainbow Dash added. "Has anypony seen Derpy at all since the fake pushed her away?" She asked, worried. Twilight blinked once.

"Go find her. Tell her he is fake." Twilight said. "It will repair her heart, but then she will be crushed when she figures what it means. Its harsh but right. Go Rainbow. We will be fine." Twilight ordered and Rainbow Dash nodded. She flapped her wings once, then shot into the air.

Nick the knife, ridding Steven were leading the march, Steven being the biggest, he was covering more ground than the battle ready ponies. A grey pony, named Lex was trotting besides Steven.

"So, we have a magic knife and a dramatic serpent leading the charge eh?" Lex asked.

"Not worried or confused at us?" Nick replied. Lex paused for a second, still getting used to the idea a knife could talk. Then shock his head.

"I've seen worse." He muttered. Nick gave a small squeaky laugh and Steven smiled as well.

"How long have you been in the Everfree Steven." Lex found himself asking. Steven then had a turn at pausing.

"As long as I can remember. Survived on the fish and my hair and moustache." The serpent replied.

"Ever done combat before, like actual fighting?" Lex questioned, worried about the strength of a civi. Serpent maybe, but still a civi. As was the knife. Sort of.

"Fought against a pack of Timberwolves before. Remember Nick?" Steven replied, looking to the knife.

"Yeah, we won." The knife replied.

'These aren't wooden wolves we will be fighting though. This is some unknown enemy.' Lex thought then slowed for his team to catch up.

"What was that?" Cypher asked when they did.

"Questioning the civis. Cypher." Lex replied. The group laughed a little and trotted on. Holding their crossbow and spear saddles ready for war.

Derpy Hooves sat alone. Again. After the human had left her all she did was sit. She had barely eaten and was slowly rotting away. She hadn't slept and was ready for the worst. Suddenly there was a knock on the door. At first she was excited, then disappointed at what she thought would happen. It wouldn't be him. Hell, who would it be. They had all forgotten about Derpy. Every last one of them. No pony had came to see Derpy since she left. But that was good. Derpy wanted to be by herself. Alone. No pony to bother in her life. Derpy never wanted to move again, after the human had declared love, then two weeks of waiting later, shattered it in an instance. Derpy didn't move. The knock happened again. Derpy thought about calling out, to ask who it was. But couldn't care anymore. She was all alone. Alone in her thoughts and alone in her home and life. No pony cared. She sat alone for a few more mintues, until that is, the door knocked again. Derpy finally decided to just answer the door and tell whoever it was to leave her alone.

Derpy got up, walked toward the door, which was still being banged on.

Derpy reached it and opened it.

Insted of shouting, or crying or telling the person to leave her alone.

Derpy punched the figure in the face.
