>Day four.

>You lay on your side, wide awake.

>You've been up for almost an hour now, but decided to take the time to quietly think about the last half of the week.

>All that you wanted at first was to just learn more about this world.

>Life at the castle wasn't so bad... When you weren't being interrogated.

>Though, you did seem to spend a lot of time in the diminishing library...

>Thinking about it, you spend most of your time there when you weren't in your room, or with one of the princesses.

>You roll onto your back with a soft squelch.

>Fibbing to Luna wasn't the nicest thing in the world to do, especially since she treated you as an equal.

>Yet, you had to satiate your curiosity of the Changelings...

>But was that life really that great, being clammed up inside of a large castle...?

>You heave a soft sigh.

>Since you got here, things had been very... Different.

>You expected a ferocious swarm, not a large hive with mostly passive beings.

>And Queen Chrysalis? She was so much different than the books had described her.

>You wiggle your jaw a bit, the muscles feeling a bit tight.

"Grr.. Stupid mouth."

>You try to open your mouth and clam it back shut to loosen the muscles.

>You feel something sharp puncture your lip, causing you to erupt into an open cry.

>Almost instantly, one of the Changeling guards charged into the room.

>"Princess, are you alright!?"

>He seemed genuinely concerned, looking ready to attack anything that moved.

>Other than you, of course.

>Seeing no immediate danger, he loosens his stance and walks over to you.

>He notices the small bleeding coming from your mouth.

>"Oh, princess... You'll be alright. You just bit your lip is all."

>He takes down the bars and holds you gently.

>Chrysalis walks into the room, taking in the sight with a yawn.

>"What's... uwaaaaah..."

>She clicks her tongue after the yawn.

>"What's all the hubbub about?"

>"It looks like the little princess has her fangs coming in.. She bit her lip."

>You sniffle softly as Chrysalis takes you into her hooves.

>"Did little Annie make a boo-boo?"

>She's talking down to you like a child.

>Oddly, it actually calmed you down a little.

>You nod slowly, opening your mouth a bit.

>"Aww. Let mommy fix that."

>Gently, she sucks the blood off of the open wound and uses her changeling salivary fluids to patch up the wound.

>It didn't hut at all anymore. Putting it on your lip didn't even sting.

>The idea would have normally repulsed you... But you didn't say anything of it.

>You quietly hug her.

>She pats your back softly as she checks you.

>"Tsk, tsk... Can't keep you clean, can we?"

>You give a soft, girly giggle.

"Guess not!"

>"Guard, do me a favor."

>He salutes as she calls to him.

>"Yes, your highness!"

>"Go tell the other Changelings that today is a free day."

>"B-But your majesty, we..."

>She turns to leer at him.

>"Are you questioning your Queen?"

>He cowers a bit.

>"N-No my, Queen!"

>"Then do as you are told."

>"Right away!"

>He takes off out of the room, closing the door behind him.

>You look at Chrysalis in the eyes.

"You REALLY know how to get to them, don't you?"

>"When you're a Queen... You have to know how to deal with insubordination."

>Chrysalis sits you down on the changing table for the usual morning routine.

>She gently tickles your belly, forcing a giggle out of you.

>"It's great to see my little Changeling being so cheerful~"

>Chrysalis quickly does up the changing routine while you laid on the table and played with your hooves.

>Looking at them, they seemed a bit shorter too...

>Then again, a lot about your body has been changing lately, so it wasn't too much of a surprise for you.

"Why did you give them a free day?"

>You sit up once your onesie was buttoned shut.

>Chrysalis tossed out the trash before turning back to you.

>"Just to give us some free time together. It isn't every day a Queen like myself gets to have a little princess."

>She uses her nose to rub your belly, causing you to giggle a bit more.

"M-Mommy..! S-staahhhp!~"

>You flail a little bit before she returns the giggles and puts you on the floor.

>You look up at her.

>Almost on cue, your stomach rumbles loudly.

>"Oh, that's right. I almost forgot..."

>Chrysalis walks out of the room for a moment before returning with another bottle.

>"How could I forget that my little pumpkin likes to eat after she wakes up?"

>You shrug a bit.

>Queen Chrysalis takes you over to a corner where a soft, plush bag sat.

>It looks like one of those beanie bags people sat on back on Earth.

>She sat down in it and levitate you into her forelegs to cradle you.

>You looked up at her, this position leaving you vulnerable to her.

>A small blush came to your face, but was quickly removed when she floated the bottle in front of your face.

>You reached out for it.

"Gimme! Gimme!"

>Your adorable little act cause her to giggle at you quietly.

>"Alright, here comes the choo choo train~ Choo choo!~"

>You open your mouth as she uses her magic to slide the bottle's nipple into it.

>Laying back, she gently rocks you back and forth as you nurse from the bottle.

>She hums a soft song to you.

>Before she seemed so... Intimidating, almost malevolent.

>But as she sits here holding you, she's so motherly and caring...

>Is this what happens when Changelings feed off of love?

>But this wasn't like conventional love...

>You remember what she told you before.

>"Nothing could replace a mother's love."

>Was this what you were missing in your life...?

>Motherly love?

>You finished your bottle as a casual pace.

>Once the bottle was empty, your body suddenly heaved violently as a hiccough erupted.

>She grinned sheepishly with a blush as the bottle hit the floor.

>"Oh my. Sounds like little Annie needs to be burped."

>You chuckle softly.

"Sowwie..."

>Putting you over her shoulder, Chrysalis tapped your back.

>A moment later, you gave a loud belch.

>"My my, that WAS a big one."

>Chrysalis seemed pleased as she sat you down in her lap.

>You tilt your head back to look up at her.

"What'll we do today, then?"

>Chrysalis tapped a hoof on her chin.

>"Hmm..."

>You ran off and dove at the toy box.

>"Careful now, Annie. Don't want to chip one of your new teeth!"

"I... I'm okay!"

>You get up on your hooves with a wobble before opening the chest and taking out all the blocks.

>Chrysalis sat behind you.

>"Whatever do you plan on doing with those?"

"LET'S BUILD A CASTLE!"

>You sounded so eager as you held two blocks up with each front hoof, a wide smile on your face.

>You and Chrysalis worked together to build a large block castle.

>You sat on the inside while she sat on the outside.

>You even got to put a roof on it!

"I'm Pwincess Annie, and dis here is mah castle! No big meanies allowed!"

>You sat inside of the castle triumphantly as Chrysalis circles the outside.

>"Rawr, I'm a big dragon. I'm gunna take over this castle!"

"Nu-uh! I'll stop you!"

>Chrysalis looked into the front door of the castle.

>"Raaawr I'm gunna gobble you up!"

>She poked her head in through the open door.

"Oh noes, a dwagon!"

>You giggle before booping her nose.

>Chrysalis brought her head back out before feigning a dramatic death.

>"Oh no, I have been slain! Woe is me!"

>Thump

>Your ears perk up at the silence.

"M-Mommy...?"

>You poke your head out of the door a bit, but not too far.

>You don't want to be counter booped, after all.

"...Mommy? You okay?"

>You notice her tail next to the wall.

>Quickly, you get out of the castle and walk up next to her, poking one of her legs.

"Hey... D-don't play like that..."

>You begin to get teary-eyed as you hop onto her belly.

"C-Come on... Wake up sleepy head..."

>You bounce a bit.

>After the fourth bounce she magically reanimated and holds you down in a snuggle-lock.

>"Gotcha!"

>Even though you were on the verge of crying, you couldn't help but giggle at her.

>She counter booped your nose anyway.

"That... That wasn't fair!"

>You pout a bit, puffing your cheeks out.

>"Aw, come on... Lighten up! It was just a joke..."

>You look away from her.

"I thought you were actually hurt...!"

>"Aw... I'm sorry..."

>She gently strokes your mane.

>"Would a kiss make it all better?"

>You nod a tiny bit.

>Leaning forward, Chrysalis gives you a loving kiss on the nose.

>"All better?"

>You look at her.

"All better..."

>You spent the day playing with Chrysalis.

>Together you built block structures and demolished them.

>You played with yesterday's ball.

>Chrysalis even read you a little story book about Luna and Celestia.

>Even though you knew the story about the two ruling sisters, you still listened attentively.

>Nightfall was fast approaching.

>You gave a soft yawn as you rolled the ball back to Chrysalis.

>"Aw... Is it bed time for Annie already?"

>You nod softly.

"Yesh, I'm tired..."

>She clicked her tongue in disappointment.

>"Aw, that's no fun..."

>She seemed to be having a lot of fun playing with you, and taking care of you.

>Even if you needed quite a number of diaper changes a day...

>You crawled up next to her.

>Chrysalis looks down at you, tilting her head to one side.

>"Yes? What is it, little one?"

"Can... Can I sleep with you tonight, mommy?"

>Chrysalis seemed taken back by the sudden question.

>It took her a minute to answer.

"I... I mean, if you don't want me to... It's fine... I just thought I'd ask..."

>"Oh, of course you can sweetie."

>Chrysalis picks you up and snuggles with you for a few seconds.

>"You don't need to be afraid to ask~"

>You smile brightly.

>"But we'll need a few things first."

>Chrysalis took her time in gathering up a bunch of supplies.

>Diapers, wipes, powder, small changing mat...

>You swear she was preparing for a road trip or something.

>You sat on her back and watched her as she moved around the room.

>She even got your blanket and pillow out of your crib.

>"There, I think we have all that is necessary..."

>She cranes her neck a bit to look at you.

>"What do you think?"

>You put one of your hooves into your mouth and shrug.

>Chrysalis giggles softly.

>"Thought so."

>Chrysalis takes you into her room.

>It looks very fancy... Not royally so, but velvet filled.

>Red velvet draperies on her bed...

>Curtains for her door.

>Even a mirror and dresser to fix up her mane.

>Chrysalis looks at you as she walks in front of the mirror.

>Seeing your reflection for a split second snaps you out of your awe-struck state.

"Go back, go back!"

>Chrysalis backs up so you can look into the mirror.

>"See something you like?"

>You examine yourself on the mirror from on top of Chrysalis' back.

>Your body has shrunk down a bit... You're a tiny bit shorter than the Cutie Mark Crusaders.

>Looking closer at yourself, you can see a set of fangs just barely poking out from under your top lip.

>Your snout has even curved.

>Just looking at yourself, your eyes begin to sparkle.

>Was this really you? Were you this adorable little filly?

>Chrysalis giggles at your reaction.

>"Looks like someone's enjoying their little itty bitty new body~"

>Chrysalis continues into the room, setting the supplies down on a table next to the bed.

>She gently puts you down on top of the bed's blanket.

>It feels so plush and soft...

"Wow, this bed is so... Soft."

>"Yeah, it's okay I suppose..."

>She levitates your pillow next to hers and puts your blanket by the pillow.

>"It gets kind of lonely, though."

"Being just a solo Queen?"

>"Yeah... It's hard trying to find food for my swarm. Then I've got to keep them in line..."

>You sits on the bed and look at her as she looks outside at the sunset.

>Through the open curtains, yellow and orange rays of sunshine light up the room.

>It feels serene.

"W-well hey, you have me now."

>She looks at you, almost surprised at that statement.

>"Hm? Well, yeah, I suppose... But it would only be a matter of time before you left... No?"

>You shake your head.

"No... I..."

>You look down at your hooves as you think about this.

>Is this truly what you want? Do you want to stay with Chrysalis and be her loved, and well taken care of child?

>You take a breath before slowly exhaling.

"...I'll stay here. With you."

>Chrysalis' ears perk up with surprise.

>"Did you just say...?"

>You nod slowly.

"I... I like it here. Things aren't so bad... I'm treated equally and I'm loved. What more could I ask for?"

>Chrysalis' worry-some expression changed to a soft smile as she approached you.

"Oh, Annie... You have no idea how happy that makes me feel when you say that."

>She slides up onto the bed with you, laying on her side.

>You crawl up into your blanket, snuggling right up close to her.

"...I love you, mommy Chryssi."

>She kisses your forehead gently.

>"I love you too, little Annie."

>A tranquil silence falls over the room.

>You can feel her heat, and hear her heart.

>Then you feel it.

>Not now...

>Uncontrollably, you heavily mess your diaper, filling it up loudly.

>Chrysalis' eyes open wide as she looks at you.

>"Did you just...?"

>You look up at her with a semi-innocent grin and a blush.

"S-Sowwie I just..."

>Chrysalis giggles at you before getting up and putting you on the make-shift changing area.

>"It's okay sweetie... Little fillies like you can't hold it."

"O-okay.."

>You look away before she magically pops a pacifier into your mouth.

>You don't even protest it.

>You quietly suck away on the pacifier as you slowly drifted to sleep, mid-change.

>"...Good night, Annie."
