Chapter 18: This is War

A/N: Rewritten because I wasn't satisfied with the last ones ending.

I rushed back to my house, where Chrysalis was resting. I grinned and turned the volume onto full blast. I selected the loudest song I could: State of Massachusetts and put it right next to her ear. I hit play. As soon as she heard the heavy guitar, she jumped 3 meters into the air in shock and glared at me,

Dick," she called me. I grinned and sung along whilst walking around the house:

Song: State of Massachusetts by Dropkick Murphy's:

She had excuses and she chose to use them

She was the victim of unspeakable abuses

Her husband was violent, malicious and distant

Her kids now belong to the state of Massachusetts

They've been taken away! Hey!

They've been taken away!

Billy was a bright one, Tommy's off his head

Mother loved them both the same, at least that's what she said

I don't predict the future, I don't care about the past

Send them both to DSS, now you've had your chance

The poison stole your babies

The judges took your rights

You can have your children or the night

I suppose you've been a victim, I suspect you may have lied

Have you lost all ambition, won't you give this thing a try

If you can't and you fail, you won't be the only loser

These kids don't stand a chance with you in their future

They've been taken away! Hey!

They've been taken away!

Billy was a bright one, Tommy's off his head

Mother loved them both the same, at least that's what she said

I don't predict the future, I don't care about the past

Send them both to DSS, now you've had your chance

The poison stole your babies

The judges took your rights

You can have your children or the night

The poison stole your babies

The judges took your rights

You can have your children or the night

Billy was a bright one, Tommy's off his head

Mother loved them both the same, at least that's what she said

I don't predict the future, I don't care about the past

Send them both to DSS, now you've had your chance

The poison stole your babies

The judges took your rights

You can have your children or the night.

As the song ended, Chrysalis was glaring at me for my loud music. I grinned and turned my phone off. I felt another shudder, a large one throughout the hive mind. Metamorphosis was marching straight for Ponyville, she had already re-converted every other hive out there. And she had Celestia and Crimson on her side. Chrysalis looked at me in fear,

"We cannot survive this," she stated, "we might as well join her and get ourselves re-converted,"

"No," I said, "we fight until the end. I wish I could've done more last time but I spent most of the fight in a cocoon or as a drone on Metamorphosis's side,"

"So do I," Chrysalis said, "contact Luna, tell her we need her, now,"

I ran to Twilight's and said,

"Twilight, get Luna, Metamorphosis is coming,"

She sent a letter via Spike and a few minutes later, Luna arrived, clad in armour. She had an army of guards with her. More then 3000 this time. She knew the spell to reverse the conversion process. We could see Metamorphosis's vast army on the horizon and we were all pretty much thinking the same thing,

'We will never win this,'

As Metamorphosis approached, Chrysalis gave me some changeling armour, and I put it on, grateful for any extra defence I could get. Metamorphosis called out to us,

"Surrender now and I will go easy on you, fight me and you will all be re-converted into my empire,"

Your empire?" Luna asked,

"I have control of every hive," she stated, "I control all changelings apart from you two,"

"I'll never join you," I said but she replied, "you did last time," and shit her magic at me, this time I returned with a blast of my own. They met in the middle and I groaned under the strain, eyes closed tightly. I opened one, to see myself firing out dark magic out of my horn instead of my normal maiming beam. Metamorphosis was worried as my magic inched closer to her horn but I hesitated at my use of dark magic. She seized the opportunity and fired her most powerful magic at me. It broke my weak attempt at resistance and I was cocooned again. Why did I suck at fighting?

This time, I didn't put up any resistance to the cocoon. I knew that I wasn't mentally strong enough to fight against it so I just let it do its job. I was demoted from my rank as prince into rank of drone and I felt nothing but obey the queen. I was let out rather quickly and joined the army rather quickly, standing next to General Celestia. She charged at Princess Luna and Queen Metamorphosis took on Queen Chrysalis. Twilight was taken on by all the Generals and quickly cocooned. We were gonna win this.

We charged the royal guard army, who looked terrified of us millions of changelings charging them. Hundreds of guards were cocooned almost right away and victory seemed imminent as we broke through their puny guards and charged Luna. Luna was a pretty good opponent but, whilst being strong, we defeated her in sheer numbers. Chrysalis was the only one left fighting, the royal guard army all converted into our ranks. She knew our way of fighting though, so she was even harder to get then Luna. She had surrounded herself in a green forcefield so we couldn't get to her. We brought out battering rams to try and break her shield. The shield was surrounded by the Generals, who all fired their magic at it. It broke after 5 seconds. Chrysalis took flight and engaged Queen Metamorphosis in mid air. We watched. They had a magic duel, Chrysalis firing her magic at Queen Metamorphosis who met it with her own one of dark magic. Changeling magic was not a very good match against dark magic but is some cases, changeling magic can beat dark magic. General Luna was freed from her

Re-conversion cocoon and Chrysalis knew she was defeated. She let the dark magic touch her horn and she was knocked out of the sky onto the ground.

"I win," Queen Metamorphosis stated and all of our Generals and her crowded around Chrysalis' body. Chrysalis looked up weakly and said,

"Go on then, you've destroyed us, re-convert me or kill me,"

I glanced at General Celestia for a second and her eyes flashed all colours of the rainbow, I narrowed my eyes but before I could point her out, a shocking white light flew over the land.

I was on the floor, normal again. Metamorphosis and her generals, including Luna were all charging up one massive conversion spell to use on the whole of Equestria whilst everyone was stunned by Celestia's blast but I saw them. I flew over at impressive speeds and rocketed into Metamorphosis, stopping the spell. Metamorphosis growled and said,

"I had you under my control, drone, part of my hive will always be in you,"

She was fighting me for control over my body, I fought back well, knocking her out of it,

"Not anymore, Metamorphosis," I said and charged up a blast of dark magic. Her eyes widened and I shot her face, she was finally dead, or so I thought at the time.

I flew back to Celestia, who had unconverted everyone. Twilight was a changeling princess once again due to Chrysalis's request, she wanted a sensible successor. I was back to my usual Queen Chrysalis's personal helper and guard rank. Twilight was getting used to shapeshifting and such again but once she was in her alicorn form, she stayed that way. I shapeshifted back into my human form and rubbed my necklace.

A rush of smoke poured out and I heard Sombrero say,

"Haha well, this is awkward,"
