Together, Chrysalis and her ragtag, yet respectable strike force hurried to the village, intent on razing it to the ground. You honour us with your presence.". That was it, there was nothing left to stand in her way. "I wish to inform Princess Celestia of an attack on our subjects." I need to know what she was doing the day of the invasion. Said Rainbow. Furthermore, she did also upset the bride, my niece. In the meantime, she was drinking a cup of hot cocoa, trying to drown her sorrows. What if that really was Cadance? Said Luna, who had little idea her guests would be royal guards with very specific orders. Returning to the matter at hoof, Twilight spoke up next. Replied Rarity. Unfortunately, like the Mane 5, Shining and Celestia, he fell for the same delusions that Twilight was still in the wedding hall, wallowing in her misery. Something snapped in Velvet's mind, and at once the unicorn bowed before the slightly bemused Luna. "All I cared about at that point was being a bridesmaid, and the added honour of mingling with Canterlot's nobility. The only question that lingered, however, was how long would that loyalty last? All this was as per Shining Armor's orders to get Canterlot back to working capacity. He had no idea that Chrysalis had imprisoned her in the caves, or that her life was in danger, but now that he did, it was taking a bad toll on him. Another brief pause followed, before Spike made the decision to report to Twilight. Whatever Celestia wanted her for, it certainly wasn't anything light-hearted. "No, please!" One could even dare say the latter was no longer her favourite princess as well. That much was clear to the lot of them. It won't go away. "Uhh, Pinkie, that isn't entirely the case". Baggy eyes filled with regret, a weary expression, plus her mane and tail weren't very well groomed. "I turned to the dark side for want of recognition of the beauty of the night by my subjects. Replied Rainbow confidently. ", "No Rarity, I haven't forgotten, but let me ask you this. In fact, I'm sure Shining and Celestia have realized just how badly they screwed up by now. That is all.". The former was pleased to see her, but also equally worried. How can you even call yourselves her friends anymore?!". "They were shocked and angered by what I told them. At present, Luna could sense that the Sparkle parents were distressed and angry. This has refined my ability to also sense ponies' aura.". Every second of her absence is killing me. What do you think of that sir? We thought leavin' her alone to think about what she had done would be best for her.". Prepare your troops for battle!". Celestia assured her she would be fine under her tutoring and she held that for years but the moment she and the others betrayed Twilight, she broke that promise. Celestia clenched her eyes in pain. The first, she imagined, would be giving her a gift of a simple, but beautifully made dress. Alt. It was still clear within the depths of her mind; how harsh her brother was toward her, and how her so-called friends thought it right to walk out on her with no sign of pity or consolation. ", "I'm not sure darling. Moments later, Princess Cadance, the bride, Twilight's former foalsitter and somepony with whom she was very close, appeared. ", "You don't exactly look like it darling. Don't come back until you're ready to be Twilight's friends again.". "Thank you Luna. "Instead of waiting outside the city to attack, our forces will infiltrate the city in disguise en masse, and blend in with the locals. When it all comes crashing down, the night will fall. The aura she was sensing was undeniably strong, and bitter in feeling. Replied Shining sadly. Meanwhile, Cadance and the Mane 5 were aboard the train which followed Twilight's to Ponyville. Don't they realize what they've done? To be precise, the only traceable source of conflict to be found in Equestriawas in my heart.". "Welcome back my Queen" Hissed Blade. Her brother, Shining Armor, somepony she held very dear, disowned her before abandoning her in her hour of need. Having opened the letter and read its contents, Shining learned of how Chrysalis and the remnants of her army had attacked a settlement near the border, burning it to the ground and taking the inhabitants prisoner. Do y'all remember the day I left with Twilight to go to Canterlot for the wedding? ", "That's OK Rarity. ", "Anything to preserve the welfare of my subjects." "No ma'am. Almost instantly, Blade returned to the throne room, always ready and eager to serve his queen. "Oh honey! Yelled Rainbow, equally as shocked as the Sun Princess. "Your Majesty, may I present Snake Bite. Applejack barked angrily. The rest of the Mane 5, along with Cadance and Spike, joined the hug, doing all in their power to console the distraught unicorn. The outside world didn't matter anymore. The latter turned to Shining Armor next. "Shining Armor, how could you be so unspeakably cruel to your own sister?! From the numerous cracks and windows that dotted the structure, a sickly green light glowed, with trace amounts of smoke rising from them. Applejack replied. Granny Smith slowly stood up, Applejack watching on as she did. Something like this from her sister was unheard of. I want my new Changelings to be equipped with the finest armours and weapons my blacksmiths can forge. She made a difference in Twilight when she forgot about friendship after becoming Princess Celestias star protge and you took her love for you for granted. He proceeded to knock on the door. If the Princess had guessed correctly, this wouldn't be good news in the slightest. Replied Twilight, who headed back inside. With that, Shining led Luna down to the throne room. Somepony would probably catch us. Beside him at the war room table was Commander Alkaios of the pegasi, and Commander Maugrim of the unicorns. "You heard her. We must plan for a defensive operation in advance. Cadance was focused mostly on how Twilight was going to feel seeing the girls again. It doesnt matter anymore. She glanced behind her to see Twilight's treehouse/library encased once more in a dark magenta coloured bubble. "Well, there was the time Twilight went crazy about her friendship reports to Princess Celestia. The Cadance which Twilight had just met did not recognize said hoofshake.". "Aunt Celestia, Twilight wishes me to inform you that she is no longer your student. A mlt rnyai - Edward szemszg fanfiction (A dialogue Carlisle/Esme: Selfish by baphne The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1 (original title) Don't worry Twilight fans Don't worry Twilight fans. There was nothing that could ruin this moment, absolutely nothing. They even issued the warning that if we fail to apologize to Twilight properly, then she may never forgive us again.". "Why did I ever doubt her? "I can remember spending most of the night cr-". This day might never happen now at all Second, I kinda understand why everyone and Shining got mad at Twilight; they didn't know Cadence was Chrysalis, so they probably thought she was just insulting Cadence for no reason. Any information she could get at this time would be of great assistance to figure out how this happened. In the aftermath of the wedding, Twilight has found that her friends have grown. Stepping inside the library, she made herself comfortable. Replied Luna, who walked inside. Her focus instantly derailed, Luna had little choice but to let her guests enter. As my most trusted lieutenant, I am sure you will not fail me. As for Spike, he was very much pushed to his limits here. She had finally come to terms with her mistake. "Everypony can come in, but no tricks or merriment. One would expect her to take it maturely. The worst thing about all this is that they didn't even care! She zoomed in on the Spartan's head, intent on sniping him clean through the skull. The one you saw at the wedding was a poorly rehearsed act of imitation, one undeserving of her very image. ", "Affirmative. Chrysalis turned to look at the pair, before returning an affirmative nod to Blade. DId you not realize the potential ramifications your actions could've had on her? ", "No, it's OK. Just gimme a second." Aside from that, there's nothing else to report. Twilight was trying to warn you of an impostor, even if it meant making a bride cry. That was the question burdening Applejack's mind, however. Unfortunately, in his haste to leave, he wasn't prepared for what came next. I want to make up for my actions at the rehearsal.". They did not know that Twilight, too, had something to apologize for. As was customary with the rules of war, both parties would first try to talk each other out of it. But for now, the three leaders were to help Skoula in planning the attack on the city, before it could be presented to the Queen. the Mane 5 could do little more than look at each other, speechless and shaken. "Hello Twilight." Behind him, the door closed and locked again, sealing him away from the outside world. Has Twilight ever been wrong about something before?". Replied Shining, equally as sorrowful. Still, she tried her best to remain perky, and after having breakfast herself, she set to work stacking Sugarcube Corner's display case with treats and confectioneries of all shapes and sizes. Spike could only smile at that. "Please don't leave me.", "Shh Sugarcube." Together they moved out of the brush, making their way southeast toward the Everfree. ", "And I failed the Element of Honesty because when we wrote that friendship report, we were supposed to have learned an important lesson. Together the unicorn and baby dragon faced the left side of the train, looking out the windows into the station as the train rolled to a stop, steam hissing from it's every orifices. "Yes sir!" "Oh Celestia, how are we going to fix this mess?" "Excellent." Helping the unicorn to dry her eyes, Spike stood back as Twilight returned to her hooves. "Twilight, I'm here to say sorry for leaving you at the rehearsal. We'll let you in, but they are not allowed on this property!" From the shock she felt when Shining disproved everything she thought she knew about Fake Cadance before stripping her of the role of Best Mare and even the privilege of being at the wedding, to the horror and abandonment she felt when all five of her friends, even Spike, walked out on her with their eyes closed and their faces morphed into indignant frowns, to the utter pain and heartbreak she felt when Celestia stabbed her with a verbal dagger. There was no known reports or rumours of a wedding or any other high-security event this time, according to reports from her spies, thus there wouldn't be a shield to deal with. Once they had walked clear of the structure, Twilight's shield spell covered it once more. If they were going to be of any help to Twilight at this time, they needed to be safe from anything, therefore Night felt this was for the best. While I watched over my night, the ponies were asleep in their beds. ", "I failed the Element of Generosity because I was not generous enough to show you that I still cared about you." What if she really was just going through a hard time? Only the Creator knows where they are right now." "So, what's the plan?". "Guards, let's go. This time, there can be no resistance to the might of the Changelings. I appreciate you've come all this way just to try to make it up to me, but I'm not ready. "My magic torch has revealed to me that the leader of the Element Bearers, Twilight Sparkle, has returned to her home in Ponyville following a fallout with her friends, her brother and Princess Celestia, her mentor, feeling hurt and betrayed by all of the previously mentioned. Granny Smith mused. She decided it was high time Spike was given something to think about. Did they really have the matter under control, or were they too caught up in the wedding to remember what was at stake? ", "No problem Cadance." "I am sorry, dear sister. Pinkie rose her head above the display case, her expression a concerning mashup of a forced smile coupled with a miserable upper-half, which left Rarity mildly disturbed. "I see somepony is eager!" The sun princess spoke glumly. Princess Luna is here!". "What is it Granny Smith?" "I will not leave anypony to fall victim to the same force that once held me, certainly not this night, nor any other. The Mane 5's ears collectively drooped in disappointment. As she began pushing down the right trigger using her magic, there were three knocks on the door. Meanwhile, very much unbeknownst to Celestia, Luna had taken the decision to head off to the Sparkle family home. ", "I have no doubt Twilight was gravely hurt by what her friends, her brother and Celestia did to her," Luna replied, "but what prevented the Nightmare Forces from corrupting her is that she had no bitter feelings towards them or desires of their destruction. You just need to know how to get the message across. Now she knew what was going on, but then came the million-bit question; how would the events of the wedding affect her, and what would come in the future relating to that event that would also affect her? Celestia had to personally go down there to restore order, not to mention speaking to Twilight about what happened.". "Luna, guards, I wish to talk with Captain Armor alone. You know what we want, and if you do not surrender, then we will happily walk over you and anypony else who stands in our way to get it". said Shining. ", "You were thinking about what had happened, weren't you?". I did not do it on purpose. Mused Rarity. Twilight sobbed harder, the group watching on in stunned silence. Over-eager rookies were normally all it took to detonate a powder keg of tension. ", "I know Dad", sighed Shining. "My story is not so different to Twilight's, Lady Velvet. "Shining, take four of your men and bring Luna to me. We make for the Everfree. Meanwhile, Cadance and the Mane 5 had arrived at Golden Oaks Library, only to find the tall but humble treehouse shut up tight and covered by a large shield, which Cadance was quick to recognize as a spell cast by Twilight to keep out any unwelcome visitors, namely her former best friends. "We heard the scream" One of the guards panted gruffly. We couldn't be more grateful for your help. "CHARGE!" "Nervous?" Despite this, Cadance continued to console the distraught unicorn with all the love she had to give and more. ", "First thing's first though, I should probably go check on Twilight, make sure she's OK. As for you girls, you should probably go home and get some sleep. But that was the thing. ", "Well, things happened, concerning a few ponies including mahself, Twilight and the other girls. The tale that Celestia was spinning before her was intriguing her more and more. ", "Either way Son, you have shamed your family." If there was one thing the cyan blue pegasus was known for, it was stubbornness. After a long and hard trudge through the Black Widow's Peaks, Chrysalis, along with what remained of her army and the prisoners they took from the Canterlot settlement arrived at the Changeling hive, one of the tallest peaks in the entire mountain range. One of the guards said gruffly. The only thing she cared about was how Twilight had provided her the perfect setup to launch a perfect, foolproof and failsafe assault on Canterlot. Snake grinned. She had come to make sure the lavender unicorn had a good morning, and it looked like she had. I was just thinking about stuff. I am her number one assistant, and one of the few loyal friends she still has. But worst of all, we threatened to plunge Equestria into eternal night, just so I could get my own self-gratification from watching the ponies celebrate my night. Once our specialist crack team in Ponyville captures the Princess of Love, we will proceed with the attack by coming out of disguise and making our way toward the castle while dispatching any resistance.". Cadance called out, hoping to hear from either the lavender unicorn or the baby dragon. Applejack wasn't the only one who betrayed everything she stood for, we did as well. I would do it myself, but I must oversee repairs to the city, as well as the immediate treatment of the injured. FLASHBACK. "What is the matter dear sister? The girls were leaving you..what could I have done? Snake was renowned for his effectiveness on the field, particularly in espionage and marking targets for the army to eliminate. The Royal Guard and those who try to help them will be caught up in a frenzy of thuggery and murder. And for Luna's sake, I nearly lost my life because of them! Within hours, the village was ablaze, and Chrysalis and her Changelings, with their prisoners in tow, proceeded to return to their hive in the mountain range known as the Black Widow's Peak. Rainbow added. A house, a rock, anything would suffice. I need you to answer some questions pertaining to the wedding. It's Cadance! "I have no time to lose. Youhad no right to berate her like that and that goes double for her friends and the Princess herself. Cadance knew they had to do something and fast; the changelings and Chrysalis were still at large and if they don't get Twilight back as their best friend and the Element of Magic back in full swing, the Elements would remain inactive and Equestria would still be open to attack. The reason was obvious; Twilight would be welcoming to everypony else but her former friends, her Big Brother Former Best Friend Forever and as of late, her former teacher. It was my pride!that made me betray you Sugarcube. There was no doubt in her mind that Celestia would retaliate for this particular assault, should it fail, but for whatever she would send to attack the Hive, be it her Guards or the Element Bearers (the latter being the more likely), or even if Canterlot was conquered but a small resistance movement had managed to infiltrate enemy lines in an attempt to assassinate her or even to attack the Hive, it was necessary to ready the home defences. ", "It was I and Alkaios who came up with a separate plan of attack to deal with the princesses, your Majesty." Twilight could have stopped the Changelings from wreaking havoc, but she was never given the chance! Taking a deep breath, Spike proceeded to talk. Twilight had just reunited with her brother, who also happened to be the groom. All three had very well-developed and clever minds, which could use the full capabilities of their respective species to full advantage. His parents literally didnt take the news well and with the warning still buzzing in his head like a flock of angry parasprites, Shining began walking back to the palace, knowing he'd have to report to Princess Celestia Night and Velvets warning. Please believe me, it didn't feel right to leave you hurting like that, but I didn't want to be ejected from the wedding either. Shining could only hang his head deeper from the truth in her words. Cadance headed back to the library to help Twilight and Spike cool off, Rainbow went back to her cloud house in Cloudsdale, the mission to repair the broken bond with Twilight stuck firmly in her mind. As he did so, the balcony doors shut and the shield disappeared into the thin air. However, she had to put that behind her, in order to stick to the task at hoof. "Attention everypony! Initially, Rarity was met with no answer. 212. "I understand your grief completely now, Sir Light and Lady Velvet, but while I empathize with your plight, I am not here to promise swift vengeance. "Thank you for your gratitude Sir Light." Hah! Deadpanned Applejack. How could they simply leave her hurt and alone after everything she had done for them? If they are sufficient enough to keep us from entering the castle, then the operation may last longer than estimated. They heard me cryin' last night and wanted to know what was wrong. After Twilight is abandoned by everypony she trusts, Maleficent makes the poor, depressed mare complete her curse. Rarity added. ", "No Fluttershy,I haven't. Emotions which, once they took hold, would give way to malice, evil and nightmares, an experience which consumed the Lunar Princess herself. "Following Twilight and the Element Bearers arrival at the castle, as well as the former's reunion with her brother and foalsitter, it was from that point that Twilight believed something was not right with the bride-to-be. Celestia had tasked Luna to occasionally broadcast an announcement for any and all displaced ponies to meet inside the castle's Hall of Neighyeux, where they would be briefed on the situation of their household. Nevertheless, if Twilight was happy, Rarity was happy. Cadance was taken by surprise at how quickly the plan went belly-up, but as a firm believer in Twilight, she knew the latter would still allow room for a second chance. She may not be happy to see you, but if I know her, she will forgive you. Can't you find it in your heart to give them another chance?". All you need to do is think of a Plan B, something that can make and have Twilight understand how sorry you really are. "Immediately!" nfl open tryouts 2022 dates; liste des parc de maison mobile en floride; running 5k everyday for a month before and after; girls who code summer immersion program "But goodness me, you look terrible. "Ok Twilight, I understand. However, her memories did not betray her. It was apparent that the Changelings had taken them prisoner.". The Mane 5 backed off to give her some breathing space. Knowing that there was no escape, he took a deep breath and made his decision with a heavy heart. . Celestia has since sent a delegation, made up of the Element Bearers, to Ponyville. "You see, I'm worried about the threat from the changelings." Although the changelings along with their queen, Chrysalis, had been defeated during the royal wedding, no one could be certain where they . While it failed to, that didn't stop him from opening his mouth. As she began to sob once more, Spike immediately took the mare in his arms, consoling her for all she was worth. However, Sharp Fang, who was also present in the war room, raised a matter which would have concerned the Changelings, were the situation any different. Chrysalis made no response, physically or otherwise. Twilight couldn't finish her words. This time, she would show no mercy.
