Fang looked down on the little pony town. The town was in changeling territory outside Equestria, Fang's Hive had always made there home in the hive lands.

"To bad we have to do this quietly" Midnight sighed

"If we weren't we could just walk down there and demand that somepony come with us" Hiss agreed.

Fang nodded, feeling the same way the pony's in the Hive lands had become used to not struggling, the problem was that living with the constant threat of the changelings over them they had started to love each other less. that was what had provoked Chrysalis's attack on Canterlot.

"Well we aren't that lucky if we just walk down there Night will know something's up" Fang sighed "let's go"

With a swirl of green fire Fang took his disguise a young green blue eyed earth pony colt. Hiss and Midnight Joined him as a yellow Pegasus filly and a black Pegasus mare respectively. As the tree changelings walked into town they where met with wary glances. " 'e ponies 're scared of us" Hiss muttered quietly. Midnight nodded in agreement. Every pony was probably nervous because they hadn't seen the trio before

"Well" Fang sighed "Time to get started"

---------------------------------------------About 3 hours latter-----------------------------------------------

Fang Hiss and Midnight had dragged the pony through the same back exit they had used to sneak out of the Hive. they where now almost to The Princesses Hideout when they passed Venom. He was walking with his head down and his tail practically between his legs. He glanced at them as he passed the swallowed hard and trotted away.

"Well that was odd" Midnight commented

Hiss stared after him "I wounder what she did to him"

"Doesn't matter" Fang mumbled around a mouthful of pony.

Hiss and Midnight helped him drag the dark blue pony to there Princess

------------------------------------------1 week 1 day and two hours latter-----------------------------------------------

From the perspective of the Princess (or as much from her perspective as a little Drone like me can get in third person)
--Sighed Shadow the Book Keeper

Naiad looked happily at her eggs. of the nine of them the little cooper one had been first to hatch and now hovered in the goo waiting to be released, It's hatching had triggered the others and now all the little drones where struggling free of there egg shells. Naiad was at the moment alone. Fang, Hiss, Midnight and Venom where all working. she smirked a bit at the thought of Venom but didn't let the exsightment inside of her cloud her thoughts, A Queen who got to happy when a Drone was afraid of her lost her place in the Hive. A Queen's only job was to serve the Hive a Drone's only Job was to serve the Queen. Naiad repeated that to herself to calm the exsightment that rose in her when she thought of Venom, it wasn't a good thing he was so scared of her it was sad. He didn't matter though with what she had planed he wouldn't last long.

Two more eggs had broken open and Naiad hummed a little with joy. Soon she would never be alone again. baby changeling drones where stupid but Fang and Hiss would teach them all the pointless facts they needed to know and Midnight and Venom would teach them to fight. Naiad would teach them obedience as well as the ruthlessness her personal warriors needed to have.

Three more eggs came oped and Naiad bounced up and down a little, she was glad now no one was here to see her acting like a child, she berated herself and tried to calm down.

Another egg hatched and Naiad squealed. She shoved a hoof in her mouth ashamed of her own behavior. Still when the next one broke open she was trilled. she stood for a while staring at the last egg. that one didn't hatch the baby inside of it didn't even twitch. Naiad pocked the egg sack and got no reaction from it. "You'r dead aren't you?" she asked devastated by the loss of even one of her hatchlings.

Eventual she gave up on it and ripped the sack open, out spilled the goo and her little broodlings. "Welcome to the world little ones." she said to the little Changeling Drones

The little copper one was the first to his feet. He was the Typical baby Drone size and only came to her knee. Naiad herself was still only the size of an adult drone. The little one then bent over and started eating the goo. The Idea that changelings only ate love was a common misconception. Love to a changeling was like water to a pony, they also needed real food. The goo scattered throughout the Hive was one source of that food. The also cultivated a mushroom garden and ate meat. What did you think the fangs where for? More often than not a pony who has been drained dry of love will meet one of two fates, they will either be eaten or they will be enslaved, Naiad's Hive preferred to eat them.

Naiad watched the little Drones trying to think of names. The copper one would be Metallic, she decided, it suited him. One of the Drones looked almost full grown already, that one she named Haze because he wobbled around on his hoofs as if he where in a haze.

"-and," Naiad said turning to the little drone that hadn't stopped chirping since it hatched "you'll be Siren" It very suddenly went silent and Naiad giggled. One of the Drones ponced on Metallic and bite his ear. Metallic fliped onto his back and bit the drone back rather hard. It quickly descended into a fight and Naiad watched amused "And you'll be called Chomp the Hive will come to fear you're name" A small female snuck up to the fighting males and suddenly rammed into both of them "You'll be known as Starlight, If I'm gonna kill Venom I might as well have something to remember him by. Alright Everyone come here." she snapped the last part sharply. most of the little Drones got the message and gathered, stupid, baby drones may be, but they understood an order from their Queen, though that was probably because the order was partly telepathic. When a Queen gave an order it went into the Drone's mind as well as there ears.

They almost all lined up but one continued eating goo. Naiad picked him up and moved him into line with the others "You are to be called Trouble" she said as she dropped him into line. One of the Drone's had tried to fly into the line that, one she named Poison Wind.

Currently her little army all had white shells, wings and eyes. Naiad started at one end of the line and touched each Drone's horn to hers in turn. as she did so each of them changed to silver. She couldn't help but note that the color looked splendid on Metallic. As she changed them one of them chirped in the prettiest voice Naiad had ever heard, not that she had heard many voices. This one she named Bird's Song. After she finished Naiad noticed a pathetic Chirping coming from the goo when she looked over she saw another Drone. The last egg had hatched. Trilled Naiad bounded over to him and changed him to silver as well then she picked him up and set him with the others who had broken the line and started fighting. "Stay with you'r siblings Pipsqueak." Naiad Said with a satisfied smile.

-----------------------------------------------A few hours latter--------------------------------------------------

Hiss walked into the princess's cavern to check on her and smiled at the sight before her. Naiad lay asleep surrounded by nine little hatchlings who where all asleep as well. If Hiss noticed one of the hatchlings was copper she didn't react.
