Changes of a unicorn
Chapter 7: Deceptions and false promises
Previous Chapter Next ChapterBack in the castle of the land there were more and more changelings that appeared and the guards were soon overwhelmed and unable to raise the alarm. Some of them didn't even know what was going on and were therefore left alone by a simple knockout blow.
"Hmhmhm, everything is working as planned my princess." Chrysalis said as she watched some of the events happening. The scenery that was given to her through the windows was something that was terrifyingly breathtaking for her.
"Yes my dear, everything." Rarity added in a faked loving tone. They both walked up to the throne and plopped down on it ever so casually. And then it where their lips that met each other once more and it resulted in a deep and lustful kiss from both sides as the love was being drained from the one, was fed to the other. Something that made the kiss even more intense as the queen wrapped her tongue around Rarity's who stared lovingly into her green eyes.
"I love you so much, my princess." Chrysalis said softly while ever so gently breaking the kiss.
"I love you too, my queen," lied the unicorn together.
A couple of the elite changeling marched into the room and began to undo princess Celestia and Luna from their horseshoes, crests and crowns. "Bring them to the deepest dungeon and let them rot." Rarity demanded in cold blood.
The elites bowed and took the unconscious Celestia and Luna out of the throne room and into the Canterlot dungeons where they would be locked up for good, never to be looked looked at again.
Chrysalis couldn't resist it and went down with them while also keeping her children in tone as some of the changelings buzzed and wanted to bite the both of them. But the queen made them not too as that pleasure was reserved for somepony else. They brought the princesses deep into the Canterlot dungeon. A place where light never shined down and only the fire of the torches illuminated the area.
Eventually they reached the cells and one of the changelings opened a heavy iron barred cell door as the ones holding Luna hung her up by all four of her hooves by the chains on the ceiling and ground and covered her horn and mouth with slime which slowly began to harden out.
The same happened with Celestia who got hung up in a opposite cell. After they were done they closed the door and buzzed of joy, after which they returned to their princess who was waiting for them, accompanied by Chrysalis.
But as they came back into the throne room, there awaited them a pleasant surprise. On the throne sat Luna, but this Luna was just a little different as the queen saw right through it.
"Hmhmhm. Very good my love. You just look like the princess of the moon." Chrysalis spoke up as Rarity changed back to her pony form.
"Why thank you," replied Rarity still in the same voice as Luna.
"Change back please, we shall stay like this for a couple days and then reveal ourselves. Scaring the land for eternity."
Rarity erupted again in white flames and changed herself once again into Luna, matching both her form and size. Chrysalis changed herself into Celestia and took place on the throne. A couple of the elite changelings changed into Royal Guards and guard the queen and her princess. "Everything is working as planned my love." Chrysalis spoke up just before she gave Rarity a kiss on her lips.
After a long kiss Rarity broke it before wrapping her tongue around the string of saliva while she started to speak in a seducing tone. "As it should my love."
In the meantime had the train arrived in Canterlot and Twilight, Applejack, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie all left it as a cloud of steam left the engine before being shut down.
"Alright girls, we need to go to the Castle," the mulberry unicorn said before she had a peek to the dark skies.
"I agree egghead, this is not normal in any way." Rainbow replied who spread her wings, eager to take off.
"Hold your hooves here partner. We have to walk to it," the cowgirl said just before she gently punched the side of the pegasus.
"And? That was never a problem for you!" she returned in an annoyed tone. The tension between the two was close to breaking point and the three other ponies knew that all too well.
"Can we just go?" asked Pinkie happily.
"Uhm... Do we, really have too?" asked Fluttershy carefully in the hope not to break anything.
Twilight rolled her eyes under a soft sigh after she caught those words and followed it up by a growl or utter annoyance. "Yes Fluttershy we have to go. Now move everypony!"
All of them were a bit surprised by this little eruption but then turned to a gallop pace through Canterlot to the castle. Fluttershy made the mistake to gaze upon the black clouds which resulted in her galloping faster to run into the center of the group.
"Your majesties, miss Sparkle and her friends are here, they want to see the both of you with urge," a changed royal guard spoke up as he walked up to the changed Chrysalis and Rarity.
"Let them enter guard, I am interested in what they have to tell." Chrysalis replied to the guard.
"As you wish your majesty." The guard than made a respectful bow and trotted back to the door to let them all five in. They all walked in at a slow pacing. Mesmerized by both the beauty and scale of the throne room, none could believe it even though they had been there more than once. Yet when they stood before the throne, they all bowed deeply before the fake princesses.
"Rise back up my faithful student and tell what you want to tell. Me and my sister are interested in your words."
Twilight and the rest raised back up and the Unicorn spoke her words. "Princess, you obviously have seen black cloud with the green lighting. An army of changelings is on the move and probably will attack Canterlot. Next to that, our good friend Rarity has not returned from her last departure."
Chrysalis only sighed as Rarity, while being disguised as Luna, took over the word as she had a lot more experience with the five of them. "Yes, we have seen the cloud of them, but with the current treaty uphold everyday, what is their reason to charge us? No problems have occurred involving changelings since the beginning of the treaty. And I am quite sure Rarity will return someday soon. But I must ask the five of you to leave now. We are both very tired and my sister is heading off to bed soon."
The five mares nodded to the explanation given to them and turned themselves around to depart without a question. "Thank you for your time, princesses." Twilight said as she turned her head back and gave off a warm smile to them. The guard guided them back out of the throne room and closed the door behind them, sealing the room from the world.
"Ah still don't like it Twilight," the cowgirl spoke up as the door to the throne room closed and they walked out of the castle.
"I don't like it either, but something tells me, something was wrong, the whole fact princess Luna took word, against me, is not normal." the mulberry unicorn replied while a thoughtful look could be found in her eyes.
"Come on Twilight, you saw how tired the princess was, what do you expect, she was too tired to talk, that is why Luna spoke for her," answered Rainbow on the matter as she hovered next to them.
"Uhm, are you sure, you don't, see the whole situation, wrong?" said Fluttershy with her shy voice.
"You knew what would be funny? If the changelings had taken over without us knowing it and that that were actually changelings in disguise." Pinkie spoke under a giggle, clearly not understanding the urge of the situation. Yet she was the one, who may have cracked the case where the others were left blind.
"Pinkie... That's..." And than she fell still. The unicorn just stopped dead in her tracks as everything started to make sense in her mind all of the sudden. "We need to return, now everypony!" Twilight almost yelled to them all. She rose on her hind legs and kicked the air a couple of times before she turned herself around in order to gallop back to the throne room. Everypony was confused by the change of events and wondered just what was going to happen. Yet they couldn't just let her go out on her own. Applejack and Fluttershy managed to catch up and galloped aside Twilight whereas Rainbow flew over them. Pinkie on the other end, she just bounced aside them like always.
"Hmhmhm, they believed that story on the spot my love. But I really must depart, will you keep guard of the night my love? Then we shall progress with our plan tomorrow morning." Chrysalis said as her eyes fell upon the descending sun.
"Goodnight my dear, I shall guard the night for today," the changed Rarity spoke with a grin. The queen nodded and left the throne for the warm comforts of a bed and blanket. But when Chrysalis left, Rarity stood up from the throne and went to the balcony where she allowed her eyes to fall upon the land, admiring it deeply. For it was hers now, the whole of Equestria, was hers.
Chrysalis changed herself back to her normal form through the flames just after she had entered the celestial sleeping chamber and just looked over it all. A room with a bed that was big enough to hold Celestia, a lot of letters from students or just letter with kind words, a view over the garden and on the wall were pictures of Luna and Celestia stood before her. She looked at it and slowly her eyes got filled with rage as her mouth began to twitch.
"I will, kill you Celestia, you caused my children more pain than anypony else even did!" she almost yelled while charging up her horn and fired a couple blasts across the room destroying some of the belongings in the room. Chrysalis turned around and without a warning she just left the bedroom left the bedroom and went down, deep down into the dungeons. Looking for one pony in particular.
