The Power of Love v2
Chapter II
Previous ChapterNext Chapter"How is the squad I sent out to Ponyville?" Queen Chrysalis asked.
"They just came back my queen." said a changeling with red eyes and a large scar going down its face.
"Good, what do we know so far?"
"Well, we know that there is nothing going on like weddings or princesses." The changeling answered.
"Excellent, this shouldn't be a failed attempt like last time. This time I am sending a third of my army to capture the civilians of Ponyvile. They shall attack In a few days. It will take them at least twenty four hours to get there so they shall leave after two moons at dawn. Get them ready!"
"Yes my queen. I will Inform the army about the invasion."
"Oh and this time, You are going too. Do not fail me!"
As the changeling left Chrysalis turned to her open room with cocoons all over the ceiling. She looked out the open balcony and saw her underground fortress. It wasn't really a fortress. It was a huge cave with multiple tunnels leading to other caves and an outlet to the over world. She watched as dozens of changelings lined up and got into their training positions. She thought about the attack on Canterlot and about the purple unicorn that blew her cover. She had done some research about her and found out she was living in Ponyville with her friends that helped her. She will finally get her revenge.
_________________
Twilight Sparkle. The most beautiful pony in all of Equestria, and I still haven't told her how I really felt about her. I knew I loved her. We had spent so much time together and she had taught me so many spells. I felt like I could do anything. We went out for lunch a few times, but that was just with some of her friends. I realized that I completely left my old life behind because I had been there for a whole month. Doing odd jobs for people like carrying boxed goods to the market or taking care of Fluttershy's pets for a day. That was a real pain, but not as much as bucking apple trees all day for AppleJack. I eventually gained enough bits to purchase a settlement in Ponyvile. All was going smoothly. I felt like I fit into the community. Today, I was going to tell Twilight that I had feelings towards her.
I saw her in the park by herself, reading a book. That was my chance. I strolled up to her, trying to stop myself from sweating. What did I have to loose.
"Hello Twilight." I said, trying to keep my cool.
"Hey Sunny!"
"I have to ask you something." I said as I started Blushing.
"Yes?"
"Would it be OK if you err... Would you... Would-" I just couldn't mutter what I needed to say.
At that moment, we heard a yelling coming from up above us.
"Look out!"
We both looked up and saw Rainbow Dash spinning out of control towards us. Before I could get out of the way, she crashed into me, knocking me onto my back. I lied there, dazed and confused, trying to stop the world from spinning around me. I got back up and gave Rainbow Dash an angry look.
"Oh. Sorry about that." she said.
"Is AppleJack helping you out again?" Twilight asked?
"Not this time." Dash replied.
"Well what happened?" I asked.
"Derpy!" Dash said.
"Oh." Twilight and I said in unison.
Twilight returned her attention to me.
"Anyway, what did you want to ask me?" she asked.
"Oh. Nothing." I said. That perfect opportunity was ruined.
"I'll see you guys later." Dash said.
"Yeah I need to get home too and check on my, um... plants." I said.
"Plants?" Twilight and Dash asked.
"Yeah, Plants. Bye." I left before both of them could reply.
I ran home with the thought of plants on my mind. I didn't have any, other than the grass and trees around my home. I thought about telling her tomorrow when she is helping Fluttershy with her birds. This is getting harder and harder. Maybe I will just tell her when we are practicing spells, or after we have lunch, I can just pull her aside. I don't know what I'm going to do if this keeps ending badly.
------------------A few days later------------------
Okay. It was getting quite ridiculous now. In the past few days, I had given it another five attempts. Every single time, something happened which caused me to mess up. Whether is be a bird trying to mess with me or accidentally tripping on my tail, which I need cut by the way. But no more. Today, I was just going to go up to her and blurt it out. I don't care if there were ponies around to hear me.
It was getting dark but I walked over to her house and knocked on the door. She answered and I was immediately entranced by her beauty. I could see spike munching on some gems in the library.
"Yes Sunny?" she asked.
"Twilight, I'm-" I began, but I was stopped by a scream, coming from outside.
"For pete's sake! What now?!" I yelled.
"Ice cream cooler's broken, Free Ice cream for everypony." Said a large stallion serving people.
Just then Twilight an I saw a large dust cloud of ponies rush over to the Ice cream vendor.
"Hey, You want to get some while its free?" Twilight asked.
"Well, nothing else is happening today, so, why not!" I said in low angry growl.
As we walked over to the Ice cream vendor I thought about the possibility that the universe doesn't want us to be together. I quickly shook off the bad thought. This isn't possible is it. Coolers are meant to last a while. I doubt he has been in this business for years. Something doesn't seem right here.
