No one knows what it's like

Chapter 1: To be the Bad Ones


"Rarity, How much longer do we have to be in here? I-It's still scary," Fluttershy begged for Rarity to go back home.

"I'm sorry Fluttershy, but you were the only one that said they didn't have anything going on, and I really do need your help," Rarity explains.

"Wha-What about spike? He usually goes to great lengths to spe-spend time with you, no matter what!" Fluttershy asked.

"He had a cosplay thing he's doing with twilight. It's something like a...I don't really know. I didn't hear a lot," Rarity says.

"Oh...Well Do you know what we are even looking for?" Fluttershy asked.

"We're lookin-- wait...Do you hear that?" Rarity said as her ears perked up to hear...Music? The strum of a bass guitar was reverberating through the forest. "It sounds like...Music? Who would be playing something out here?"

"Now that you mention it, I-I do hear something! Sounds like a guitar?" Fluttershy said, also confused.

Curiosity took over rarity and she just had to find the source. "Fluttershy! Hurry! We have to find it!" Rarity said as she ran.

"Wait! What? Find what? and slow down!" Fluttershy started running, not as fast as the determined rarity though. But neither of them were expecting what they found, hidden deep into the forest.


Malex. The Changeling. The only Changeling that had feelings. The only changeling that left the hive forever. He was not expecting what the outside world would be like. It was hostile to him. He knew why, but it still hurt that no one was giving him a chance. He hadn't eaten love for 2 months. He just sucks color off everything. He's the lonely changeling. He has no purpose outside, but he didn't want his purpose inside the hive. It disgusted him. He was a wrong, and he can't be righted at this point. So all he does is sing away his sorrows. All alone, in the everfree forest. Nothing came to bother him, and he was okay with that. So he starts singing. He sings, not knowing what would happen after, and what would change everything.


They kept running, they were getting closer to the epicenter of the music.

"Rarity! Please! Just slow down a little bit! I mean, If you want too, but please say yes!" Fluttershy asked.

"No need darling! Look! We made it! Whatever's making the music is right behind this rock!" Rarity said as Fluttershy arrived. They looked behind the rock and saw Malex, Strumming his bass guitar.

"A changeling!" Fluttershy shouted quietly.

"Shush! Let's listen in. Maybe he's singing about a plan or something," Rarity explains, with flutters agreeing.

Rarity and Fluttershy were Visable crying at this point. They had just witnessed a changeling sing about not wanting to be bad. About wanting a chance. About Wishing for peace. They needed to find twilight and tell her. Maybe the princesses too!


"So what your saying is that you were looking for special gems in the everfree and you found a changeling singing about not wanting to actually basically be a changeling? and you thought it was so moving that you wanted to give him a chance by letting him live in ponyville as himself?" Twilight summarized as rarity and fluttershy nodded.

"Well, are you sure it wasn't a trick so he could get into ponyville and suck out our love?" Rainbow dash asked.

"HOW DARE YOU SAY THAT ABOUT HIM! HE WAS CRYING THOUGH OUT ALMOST THE ENTIRE SONG!" Rarity screamed to the heavens.

"HE WOULDN'T EVEN HAVE KNOWN WE WERE THERE!" Fluttershy yelled. Actually yelled.

"OK! OK! Sheesh! It was just a question!" Rainbow dash cowarded.

"Well if Fluttershy yelled, it was probably true and not a trick. Maybe we could give him a chance. But you two are the ones who have to keep an eye on him. Let us know if he gets...Too uneasy. I'll tell celestia and luna, you 2 go and see if you can find him," Twilight said as rarity and fluttershy saluted and ran to the everfree.

"We're actually gonna give him a chance? Again, even if Fluttershy yelled, that doesn't mean she wasn't tricked too," Rainbow dash said again.

"We'll give him a chance. If we see him sucking love from someone, then we go after him," Twilight replied as she started writing the letter to Celestia.

"Who knows! If he is actually a nice creature, he could be a real good friend and ally!" Spike said out loud.

"Very true spike, but We will see if he is truly good," Twilight said.


Malex walked back to his stool. His bass on his back so he could sing his sorrows away again. It was the only good way to pass the time. What he wasn't expecting were two ponies standing next to his stool.

"What the? Why are they here?" He thought to himself.

"Where'd he go? He has to be around here, we both saw him strumming his bass guitar," Rarity said.

"Maybe he ran off somewhere else," Fluttershy said.

"Who are you and why are you here," He said without thinking. "GAH! What am I doing!?" He thought.

"Oh there you are! We wanted to give you a chance to come live with us!" She said to him.

"Wha-What?" He was shocked by this, as any changeling would be.

"Yeah, we heard you a few hours ago, and we wanted to help you!" Fluttershy said.

"Wait, how can I trust you? For all I know, you could just be here to get me thrown into a prison or just publicly executed!" Malex stayed back.

"Well...Uh,"

"We don't have anything to make you trust us, you just have to cause we're trying to help you," Fluttershy said.

"Well...If you can promise me you aren't trying to kill me, then I guess I can trust you," Malex said as fluttershy and rarity both nodded that they do promise. Malex then knew that this was something new. Something amazing. He made something he never thought he would.








Peace.

What he made is in black at the bottom, It's hard to see, but it is there.
