My life as a G-rated Succubus
Chapter 3. No relief for the innocent
Previous ChapterNext ChapterIt has been a couple hours, and I was lying in bed trying to wrap my head around my situation.
I knew that I had to make things better for all of them.... And I knew that I had to save their wedding....
But..... could I really change things all that much?.....
So far I haven't changed anything, I've merely been going along with how the script followed....
But.... I was still myself, I wasn't Chrysalis.... And I wasn't going to follow through on her plot to take over the capital.
As a person of Christian faith, I know that one must always strive to achieve good in the world, and good will come to you....
Even if it's not in your world, or your body.....
Never the less, I got out of bed, when I heard chatting coming from downstairs.
I exited the room, and went downstairs.
There, I saw Twilight talking with her brother.
"We need to talk, I think you're making a big."
I coughed a little to get their attention, as I stood atop the stairs with an impatient look.
"Oh, uh, hi sweetie."
"She sure has a way of sneaking up on people....."
"Could I speak to you for a moment, dear?"
I walked inside the broom closet as Shining Armor followed, when we went inside, he closed the door slightly.
I told him that he needed to not wear his medallion.
"This was my favorite uncles."
"And?"
"And I think I should wear it."
"Are you disagreeing with me?"
"I guess I am-!" Shining Armor suddenly felt a massive headache, as he begun to collapse on the ground.....
I was still getting used to using changeling magic, but even if I was good at it, I will feel extremely guilty over what I am going to do. But Twilight needs to know something is wrong.....
"I am so sorry for this......"
I casted a brainwashing spell on the captain, as his eyes spun around dizzy and his head was blasted with green magic.....
After the spell took effect, I lifted him back off the ground as we both walked outside the broom closet.
"Twilight?" The stallion called out to his younger sister, who bolted out the door, no doubt off to warn her friends of the impending danger.
All I could do was stand in hesitation, as I thought about what I was going to do next....
Later.......
I stood outside the doors to the alter, as two guards used their magic to open them.
I then walked towards the alter as Shining Armor stared with anticipation.
"I'll say a few words, and then we'll begin with the vows. Shining Armor, you'll get the ring from the best mare."
We all turned to see Twilight absent, as Spike was playing with his dolls.
"Hey..... has anypony seen Twilight?"
SLAM!
"I'm here! I'm not going to stand next to her! And neither should you!"
Hopefully my acting skills will come into play here.....
"I'm sorry, I.... I don't know why she's acting like this."
"Maybe we should just ignore her."
"You have to listen to me!"
"Oh, goodness! Are you okay?"
"I'm fine."
"Ya sure about that?"
"I've got something to say! She's EVIL!"
Everypony in the room gasped as they chatted amongst themselves.
"She's been horrible to my friends, and I saw her put a spell on my brother that made his eyes go all-" Twilight imitated her brother's spinning eyes as a demonstration.
I remember that I neglected to imprison the bridesmaids, but of course I didn't want to do that because it would only make things more difficult for Twilight and Cadance.
Everypony stared at me as I stood near the corner in embarrassment, as Twilight cornered me with a smug grin.
I then played up the drama as I shed as many tears as I could.
"Why are you doing this to me?"
"Because you're evil! EVIL! And if I don't stop you, you're gonna ruin my brother's life!"
As I ran across the hallway in tears, I stopped when I turned the nearest corner, hoping I could fix what I just did when it was all over....
Later....
I approached the purple unicorn as she sobbed on the floor, as I placed and rubbed a hoof on her head with a warm smile.
"I'm sorry."
"It's not your fault Twilight."
"But it is, I wrongfully accused of you being a nasty pony when really you were going through a lot of stress."
"Yes.... Things have been really stressful for me lately, but it's not your fault Twilight. You just don't know what is really going on...."
"Well I do now, Shining told me that you were using your magic to heal him, and that you were rude towards my friends because you had to make all the decisions for the wedding."
"He only told you what he remembered happening, what the spell made him think."
"But-.... Why would you make your spell give him misinformation?....."
"Maybe that's because I'm not Cadance." I made my eyes flash a hint of green to prove it.
Twilight felt the urge to gasp, but she paused as she thought about this whole situation.....
"Why are you telling me all this? If you wanted Shining Armor to believe lies and you wanted me to believe that as well, why are you revealing to me your secrets?"
"Because I needed you to know that something is wrong, and this is the only opportunity I have to speak to you alone. If the other ponies found out who I really was, they would have me imprisoned, or worse."
"And what's to stop me from telling the others myself?"
"Because I need you to know that I don't want any harm coming to them! I don't like what's going on anymore then you do, and I want to help you, your brother, and your foalsitter get your happy ending. But you need to trust me."
Twilight pondered on it for a moment.....
"And how exactly do you plan to help?"
"I can take you to the real Cadance, she's beneath the caves under Canterlot."
"Why is she under the caves?! Do you plan to imprison me with her?!"
"No! I want you to help her escape! I didn't-!.... Well, maybe I technically did put her there, but I don't want her there anymore. it's complicated. just, do you trust me?....."
Twilight stared in silence for a moment......
"When I do make it back up with her, you will explain everything to me once this is all over?"
"I'll do the best I can......"
Twilight looked as though she didn't entirely trust me, which was understandable. But she gave it some brief thought......
"Ok...... Take me to her....."
"Very well, just try not to get freaked out......"
I then tried to muster the ability to send Twilight to the caves, as my horn glowed a bright green.
Soon, green flames begun to surround the unicorn protege, as she looked a bit shocked from the experience.
Eventually, she begun to phase into the floor itself, along with the flames that surrounded her.
As I then walked back into my room, I hoped that I would be able to find a way to help her and save the real Cadance before it was too late......
