Everypony knows about Queen Chrysalis's attempted invasion of Canterlot during the Royal Wedding between Captain of the Guard, Shining Armor, and Princess Mi Amore Cadenza (or just Cadance) that resulted in her and her changeling Hive being launched into the Badlands, right? However, very very few know that one changeling was launched into the Everfree Forest instead. You are that changeling.

You are Bugze; a clumsy, unlucky, pop-cultured, snarky, not-that-bright bug with prankster tendencies who can't fly and never really fit in with the rest of Chrysalis's hive.

"HEY, I am too bright. It was my idea to have the Hive change into griffins instead of ponies!" You shout at the narrator.

And how well did that go?

"The changelings that went into the Griffin Kingdom disguised as griffins... Got captured immediately..." You say in a defeated tone as you realize that the narrator was right.

Exactly, now let me finish your life story.

"Fine, fine, go ahead." You say in a annoyed tone.

*Ahem* Seeing how your life as an evil minion never worked out that well, you decided to become a good guy and swore to Luna (you forgot which goddess is the main one) to help those in need. However, after a misunderstanding with Twilight, Applejack, and Rarity, you were chased into an abandoned castle where you acquired "The Inventory", a bottomless saddle bag, along with several books from which you learned a few spells and some dark odd-looking alicorn-ish armor. The 3 ponies from before soon catch up with you forcing you to use the teleport spell (which rarely ever goes exactly right for you) which caused you to end up at the Royal Castle in Canterlot. You then run into Princess Cadance who reveals that you helped her during the Canterlot Invasion (when Chrysalis foalnapped and trapped her underground, you secretly provided her with food and water and even took a blast for her when Chrysalis decided to finish her. Your ex-queen revived/healed you (somehow) and claimed the ponies blasted you as you lost much of your memory from the blast).

You put your hoof to your chin as you say in a smart tone "If I remember correctly, I accidentally kicked dirt into Twilight's eyes, used Rarity as a meat shield, and just angered Applejack by doing said things to her friends... Yeah, I'm not good with mares." You give a sigh in defeat before you say "And to this day I wonder how and even why my ex-queen revived me... Right now my bits are on necromancy and I probably owed her some bits."

To assist you, Cadance teleports you to Ponyville where you befriend a pegasus named Derpy. You're forced to run after another encounter with the Mane 6 (and by that, we mean Pinkie Pie and Applejack and the latter is somehow able to see through your (usually unreliable anyway) changeling disguise spell) into the Apple Family Orchard. After resting in one of the trees, you find Applejack trying to harvest all the apples for something called "Applebuck Season" and (thanks to disguising yourself as Twilight) find out that Twilight cast a spell on Applejack that will allow her instincts to flare when a disguised changeling is nearby. You decide to help the clearly fatigued Applejack harvest all the apples ("Vow to Luna to be good, remember?") and befriend her little sister, Applebloom, which comes in handy when she helps you escape from Applejack and Rainbow Dash (the two mares who the most aggressively anti-you).

"Ahh Derpy, nice mare, if a little clumsy. I hope I can meet her again someday. And it was a great exercise bucking all those apples, and I felt great for helping Applejack, even though she hates my guts." You say to the narrator. You then get a mischievous grin as you say "Oh, and Applejack and Rainbow are totally marefriends!"

"NO WE'RE NOT!" Applejack and Rainbow scream as they begin to chase you.

"Ahhhhhhh, leave me alone you crazy fillyfoolers!" You scream in fear as you run away from the crazy mares.

Soooo that happned. Where was I...oh yeah. *Ahem* You then end up following the Mane 6 when they go up a mountain to deal with a dragon (who you called "Smaug") that was endangering Ponyville with his smoky snoring. You covertly assist the mares, directly saved Fluttershy's life a few times, and held off the angry dragon so they could escape, but the fight caused you to get severely injured and knocked off the mountain. You awaken in Zecora's hut some time later where she befriended and healed you. Not only do you find out you have a mark on your chest that looks like this, but a little alicorn filly with a big appetite and a habit of sleeping heavily in "The Inventory" for long periods of time jumps out of "The Inventory" and claims to be your daughter (you name her "Nightshade"). You also gain a black hooded coat that also completely hides your face in darkness when your hood is up. You put on the coat and go to the Ponyville library in hopes of finding a way to contact Cadance, but another encounter with Applejack, Rarity, and Twilight forces you to emergency-teleport and end up in the Royal Castle in front of Cadance... but also in front of her husband, Shining Armor as well as Princesses Celestia and Luna.

"Huh... huh.... huh. *Cough* Hehehe sorry, I remember the Smaug fight. Kicked him real good in his eye, and then went though unimaginable pain as I was literally used as his personal punching bag. Broke several of my bones before throwing me off the mountain and into a river." You shudder at the memory before you say "Oh, but I got him back good. I Fus Ro Dah-ed him before he threw me off." You say with smugness in your voice, you then laugh as you say "The awesome cloak I got is just super cool. It makes me feel like a stealthy assassin from Assassin's Creed whenever I wear it! Attempts to make a hidden retractable blade for it have been... painful so I gave up on that idea." You say sheepishly.

Anyway, back to the recap: Luna casts a truth spell on you which makes you say some very incriminating things when Nightshade pops out during this altercation, but Princess Luna calls for her execution. This leads to a confrontation in which you assault the Royals with the Royal Canterlot Voice to protect your daughter (it was also the first time you heard a *snap* followed by your eyes glowing orange and increased abilities whenever Nightshade is in danger) and escape with the help of Doctor Hooves and Derpy (but you also end up massively in debt to the Time Lord because of this) which leads to you ending up in the Everfree forest again.

"Have I mentioned yet that I really hate that forest? No? Well... I REALLY HATE THAT FOREST." You scream to the heavens in annoyance and hate for the forest you always get stuck in.

While in the forest, you decide to take up the hooded/coated identity of "The Hooded Offender" and rescue the Cutie Mark Crusaders from a Cockatrice and discover that Fluttershy remembers and is grateful to you for saving her and her friends ("Another friend! YAY!!!"). Unfortunately, a misunderstanding with Twilight (circumstances and misunderstandings keep causing the rest of the Mane 6 to still think you're a bad bug) leads to her blasting you to Manehattan where you awaken in Trixie's cart. You find out that "The Hooded Offender" is the most wanted fugitive in Equestria (nopony knows "The Hooded Offender" is a changeling though) and you hatch a scheme with Trixie to stage a fight in Ponyville where Trixie would "defeat" you so that she can collect the reward money, bail you out, and split it with you. When the day of the fight comes, you accidentally hurt Applejack which makes Applebloom hate you and Trixie stabs you in the back. You break out during an attack on the town by an Ursa Minor, but Trixie's cart gets smashed (you had Nightshade to stay in that cart to keep her safe...). Thinking that your daughter is dead causes the first appearance of the "Nightmare Cloak", a midnight-colored smoky cloak that appears around you and gives you a long smoky fox tail. You use the Nightmare Cloak to beat up the Ursa Minor and the Mane 5 in a despair-and-rage-fueled beatdown egged on by a dark whisper in your head.

"Became a superhero, which was awesome by the way! But every time I tried to say my introduction, I would always get zapped by Twilight, and I even got run over down by an insane TARDIS-colored pegasus mare named Lighting Chaser." You said in a annoyed ronw on how your super cool intro would always get interrupted.

You then sigh sadly as you say "As for the accidentally hurting Applejack, losing Applebloom's friendship, being betrayed by Trixie, and thinking my daughter was dead... I really don't want to talk about it. But I will say one thing, if Trixie ever tries to mess with me again... *snap* Then she better know how to run... fast." You say the last part in a deadly tone.

Fortunately, your daughter arrives in time to snap you out of it, but an Ursa Major (the mommy of the Ursa Minor) appears. You teleport the Mane 5 back to safety before Fluttershy helps you escape the Ursa Major and you emergency-teleport to the small western/desert town of Appleloosa. Appleloosa essentially becomes your new home as the townsfolk don't care that you're a changeling and your best friend there is a cowpony named Braeburn. After 8 weeks in Appleloosa, you run into the Mane 6 again and are forced to take up the mantle of "The Hooded Offender" in order to settle a dispute between the ponies and the local tribe of buffalo by making both side unite against you.

You smile at the memory of your home town as you say "The first day in Appaloosa was nice, Braeburn (my best friend now) told me that Appleloosa was a place of second chances, and boy was he right! The ponies, griffions, and the other residents of Appleloosa accepted me right on the spot and din't care I was a changeling (they'd even cover for me when out-of-towners came by)."

You chuckle at some funny memory's you have of your first couple of days in Appaloosa before you say "I had a great eight weeks there and even got a nickname! 'Bugze the Patcher' they called me, I would patch anything they needed patched with my duct tape, vice-grips, and WD-40. Of course, all good things have to come to a end eventually."

Your smile fades away as you say sadly "Not only were the mares (Applejack, Rainbow, Pinkie, Rarity, Twilight, and Fluttershy (I'm happy she's here at least...)) in town, but also Appleloosa and the buffalo tribe were going to war (I didn't even know the buffalo were a problem in the first place). After both sides sung a really species-ist war song, I decided that the only to stop the war was to give them a common enemy... Me. So after beating up/getting beaten up by the townsfolk, I decide to lay low."

You decided to lay low for awhile by hopping on the next train out of town, but the Mane 6 board the same train you're in! After another misadventure on the train involving the Mane 6 and a TARDIS-colored Pegasus mare named Lightning Chaser, you are forced to bail out of the train while it's still in motion and end up tumbling into the Everfree Forest. You encounter the Diamond Dogs who try to foalnap Nightshade to force her to mine gems for them, but one Nightmare Cloak-beatdown later and the Diamond Dogs make you, "The Hooded Offender", their new alpha. You dub your new minions "The Horde" and attempt to get them to think for themselves for the sake of good by giving them obviously idiotic orders in hopes they will reject them, but they blindly go along with the orders (while Spot frequently tries to kill you in hopes of becoming the new alpha and you obliviously manage to avoid all his coup attempts) which leads to them stealing 40 cakes (and that's terrible), capturing a squad of Royal Guard Ponies, and plotting to foalnap Princess Celestia and her pet bird, Philomena. From the captured ponies (which included Flash Sentry), you learn that Princess Cadance is going to be at something called "The Grand Galloping Gala" so you decide to take a break from your boneheaded minions and visit Fluttershy who asks you to help find Philomena (Fluttershy thought the bird was sick and took her to her home while nopony was looking) which leads to you getting caught by the solar monarch in a trap sprung by her and the other 5 mares (Fluttershy was NOT involved in the trap) in Ponyville. One confrontation later (which involved a failed hostage bluff which resulted in the captured Royal Guardponies being free again, you being set on fire by a Phoenix (Thank Luna your hooded coat is fireproof), "The Horde" surrendering to Princess Celestia, and you barely escaping via teleport), you decide to go to the Grand Galloping Gala in hopes of finding Cadance and having a few questions answered.

"Of course with Lady luck on my case, not only did I have to jump off a stinking train, but I also got minions I never wanted in the first place! Then I sang a song about a plan so crazy that it shouldn't have worked, yet I had idiot minions thinking the plan was actually good. Next thing I know, I'm in the middle of a plot to kind-nap the sun goddess and her pet bird!" You say in a shocked and annoyed tone.

"Then I give those numbskulls an obviously stupid order to launch a head-on assault a guard patrol, thinking they would mess up and learn to not listen to me. But, of course, they succeeded. They bring back the guards and I end up interrogating their leader, Strong Head and almost turned him from a unicorn stallion into an earth pony mare with vice-grips for his complete arrogant disregard for his stallions (I really hate arrogant braggarts)." You say though gritted teeth.

"I then get caught by Solar-flank herself via box trap (THE BOX BETRAYED ME!). I then try to bluff my way to safety by saying I could end her guards at any second, but Spot (who has been trying to kill me for awhile apparently) ruined it. Then I was set on fire by Celestia's pet bird (thank you fireproof coat), and I admit I may have went a little tiny bit loco and started chasing everyling... while laughing like a maniac... while on fire... and shouting how I would burn them alive and eat their burned flesh... Okay, maybe I went completely Cuckoo for Coco Puffs-" You chuckle in embarrassment before the narrator stops you by clearing it's throat.

*Ahem* You bought a suit and top hat and went to the Grand Galloping Gala under the alias of the gentlestallion, "El Hunko" along with Nightshade, who also wore a dress(you got tickets to the GGG from a mysterious "friend" who you never met who sends you letters that appear out of nowhere, and the mysterious friend has also given you The Inventory and your awesome Cloak). After some antics at the Gala (including an impromptu rock concert for which you changed from your "El Hunko" suit to your hooded coat), you finally meet Cadance who tells you about Nightmare Moon (Princess Luna believes that Nightshade is the reincarnation of Nightmare Moon which is why she's so determined to apprehend/end you and Nightshade), but before she can answer any more of your questions, her husband, Shining Armor, walks in forcing you to flee. However, Prince Blueblood (who've you humiliated several times during the Gala) gets his hooves on Nightshade which provokes you into kicking his flank. The battle escalates as more ponies get involved which culminates in the Nightmare Cloak reaching an unstable state as the dark whisper from before (who you call the "Dark Female Voice" or DFV) takes over and brutally knocks out almost everypony at the gala and critically damages the building, but with help from Cadance, Fluttershy, and Nightshade you are able to take back control from the DFV. Unfortunately, the gala starts to collapse and you sacrifice yourself so everypony could escape as the building crashes down on you...

"Ahhh the gala, now that was one of my best prank moments to be honest. I broke Flash's guitar on Blueblood's head, tripped Blueblood into some hot apple pie, zapped Celestia with a hoofbuzzer, planted a few "kick me" signs, put diarrhea-inducing powder in some of the food (the only food that Nightshade didn't devour), and even dropped every snobby monocle in the room with a rock concert!" You smile sadly as you say that because you didn't bring your camera with you so that you could forever have a picture of those nobles faces as they made a mad dash for the restroom.

You then sigh sadly as you say "But sadly the DFV inside me took control as I went into a very unstable and dangerous form of the Nightmare Cloak, where I grew devil horns and gained three fox tails. The DFV went crazy, claiming that she was my only friend and how I would spend eternity with her as she tried to kill everyling.*shiver* That was just creepy. Also, on a happier note, she managed to make sure Blueblood never could have foals by giving him what has been called The Ultimate Nutshot. I still feel a little bad for him, but he'll heal... Probably... Maybe..." He you say that last part in uncertainty.

NOT! You used the gala collapse to fake the death of "The Hooded Offender" and after donning your "El Hunko" suit, you visited Spike at Donut Joe's before boarding the next train to Appleloosa.

"I can now say that 'faking my own death' is now off my bucket list. Now if only 'eat 1,000 different cakes' could be as easy as that cause so far, I've only eaten 29." You say to yourself as you start to drool at all the delicious cakes flavors you could eat (Celestias love for cakes must be addictive).

Half a year later and you're now living in Appleloosa in a nice cozy house with Nightshade with nothing notable happening during those 6 months... With the exception of fighting off an army of Secretariat Comet-powered monsters, going to your own secret memorial service held by your fans ("I have fans, YES!!!"), and accidentally setting part of the apple orchard on fire (in retrospect, WD-40 probably isn't the best gardening tool). Life was good... Until a TARDIS blue envelope popped up in your mail one day and inside a letter from the Doctor saying,

Dear Bugze,

If you wish to pay off your debt without having to pay me all those bits.
Then please come by Canterlot immediately.

From,

The Doctor

P.S. Derpy says hi

P.P.S. Derpy says you're going in a time out for making her think you're dead

After you read the letter, you could only say,

"Why do I get the feeling I'm going to get involved with alot of chaos and that I won't be in Appleoosa for a long time?" You say to yourself in both a deadpanned and worried tone.

To be continued in the actual season 2 episode 1
