As she did so, tears began flowing freely from her eyes. "Roger. Suddenly, she saw Spike walk into her room. "Thanks Hue. Dr. Eggman: But how can you when you're currently netted like animals in a cage? "Princess, I don't know about this. It ain't right of a princess to do something as foalish as a hoofshake." Everypony that is, besides the bestmare, Twilight Sparkle. Snake was renowned for his effectiveness on the field, particularly in espionage and marking targets for the army to eliminate. Silver: A changeling? "Spike grabbed the scroll and started to read it she read it she had one question. [She points at Cadance. Before Shining could make himself idle, a unicorn Royal Guard sentry ran up to him, carrying a letter with his magic. But her older brother wasnt finished quite yet as he continued to circle around Twilight, Shes completely stressed out because its really important to her that our big day be perfect! he got up in his younger sisters face once more, Something that obviously wasnt important to you! Shining Amor winced against another migraine; Now if you excuse me, I have to go and comfort my bride! he started towards the doorway. But they refused to believe it was anything more serious than wedding stress. Twilight, Applejack, Pinkie and Rainbow watch this with warm smiles on their faces til Celestia turns to Rainbow Dash]. Finished Barbarousis. What brings you here? After a brief moment's waiting, the shield disappeared, and the front door to the library opened, revealing Twilight. Fluttershy: Yeah guys [sighs] What do we do? With that, Shining led Luna down to the throne room. Twilight Sparkle: I could've gained a sister. Twilight's brother and Celestia also walked out on her, which left her emotionally devastated. The last one standing is Shining Armor; Mordecai's Crew, Black Panther and Shuri close in and nail him with a all-star combination. Dark Sonic: I'm going to make you feel what real agony is! Meanwhile, Princess Luna had flown out from Canterlot Castle to the home of Twilight Velvet and Night Light. Twilight Sparkle: Seriously, though. Shining smiled, Thanks Pinkie he then left to apologize. As they made their way past Town Hall and through the daily market, nopony even paid them a passing glance. ", Replied Velvet. [The real Cadance runs with the Mane Six, Spike and Team Sonic in the caves], My wedding bells, they may not ring for me at all, Not care for, love, and cherish him each day", Oh, Shining Armor, I'll be there very soon, Fake Cadance: mine, all mine. ), (Hit flashes appear offscreen, as Rigby jumps in, wielding a chainsaw and running offscreen. Come." The Twilight Time Lord. Knowing this, then one such as yourself should have learned the lesson to take others more seriously, especially those closest to you. Said Applejack. Twilight Sparkle: I'm just thinking about Shining Armor. She has enough on her hooves without us being attacked.you may cast the spell Princess. Knuckles: You sure about that? Sonic: Alright, now, let's go send some robots to the scrapheap! With a sniffle from her snout, she fixed her Stetson and turned to face Cadance, a look of firm and hardy readiness on her face. Not only did Celestia abandon her, but she stabbed her with a proverbial dagger through her heart. Rarity, could you help the princesses get ready? ), [The rest of Twilight's friends; including Spike, leave her], [The wedding hall doors slam, leaving Twilight alone], (Doctor Strange making a portal to get to the underground caves), (Suddenly, Black Panther, Shuri and Mordecai's Crew arrives), (Shuri and Mordecai's Crew are eating Yummy' Yums), (Black Panther, Shuri/Black Panther and Mordecai's Crew walks away), (Mordecai's Crew attacks Royal Guards, Princess Cadance, Twilight Sparkle, Shining Armor, Rainbow Dash, Spike (Dragon), Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rarity and Princess Celestia), (Mordecai's Crew drags Royal Guards, Princess Cadance, Twilight Sparkle, Shining Armor, Rainbow Dash, Spike (Dragon), Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rarity and Princess Celestia across the pavilion and then throws them out the window killing them), (Mordecai shoots Twilight Sparkle in the head and dies), (Ben Tennyson shoots Applejack in the head and dies), (Dan Zembrovski shoots Pinkie Pie in the head), (Randy Cunningham shoots Rainbow Dash in the head), (Mark Dexler shoots Rarity in the head and dies), (Jiro shoots Fluttershy in the head and dies), (Rigby shoots Spike [Dragon] in the head and dies), (Cooper Daniels shoots Shining Armor in the head and dies), (Lucy Mann shoots Princess Cadance in the head and dies), (Mordecai shoots Princess Celestia in the head and dies), (Troll Moko and Howard Weinerman shoots Royal Guards in the heads and dies), (At that very moment, a huge wall of antimatter crashes through a section of the entire wedding hall, vaporizing Royal Guards, Princess Cadance, Twilight Sparkle, Shining Armor, Rainbow Dash, Spike [Dragon], Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rarity and Princess Celestia), (Black Panther, Shuri and Mordecai's Crew goes through the transdimensional portal as the wall of antimattering vaporizes what's left of the wedding hall and all of Equestria into oblivion), (But this is really how it Should have ended), (Cut to the Princess Celestia, who screams. ", "But why? "We won't leave you ever again." She runs to get to him but Chrysalis block her path]. With that, Snake turned his attention to Icy Tone, who was comfortably hidden in the brush behind him. Say I look lovely in my gown Congratulate. ", "Why Auntie? Why would her niece need to see Luna during her watch, and only to show her a spell she had learnt? Fortunately enough for the elite Changeling spy, he did not have to wait long as around the same time Twilight and company had embraced each other in a hug, Blade soon reported back via telepathy. Princess Celestia: Mares and gentlecolts, we are gathered here today to witness the union of [muffled] Princess Mi Amore Cadenza and Shining Armor. Once more, the girls fell silent, unable to find an explanation for their actions. "That will not be necessary." How are we going to deal with them?". Just being in such close proximity to such powerful magic was enough to leave her horn tingling and her head fuzzy. Amy Rose: Twilight, whatever are you talking about? It's been almost a week after the Royal Wedding, and their victory against the changelings! Smiling evilly as she watched the villagers flee for their lives, Chrysalis gave her troops the command they had fought for. Blaze: The princess is about to get married. The Changelings could just walk right in, disguised and completely invisible to the ponies' eyes, and then strike when the time was right. Shining Armor was sat down on his rump atop the altar/throne, crestfallen and wallowing in self-disgust. [She saw a hole high above her on the ceiling]. He couldnt bear to think of it any longer but he wanted to get it over with so they can quickly make amends to his own sister, the Element Bearer's best friend and Celestia's student they all scarred for life.Still, they had to know, so Shining knocked on the door and it opened to reveal his father Night Light. We make for the Everfree. You will also be in charge of drilling. Celestia will retaliate, and it will be her intent to destroy us as a force once and for all. Cut to Princess Celestia, who lifts her face up from lying down. Twilight then bumps into Shining Armor who looks down at her crossly. Twilight smiled as relief washed through her. How can she even condone him defending someone who he thought he knew mistreat him so much, then cutting out his life the one pony who was so dearly close to him. It's been almost a week after the Royal Wedding, and their victory against the changelings! Fluttershy: Well, I know that, but something is definitely not right about her! Princess Celestia: [shocked] Shining Armor's shield cracked [Princess Celestia, Luna and the fake Cadance turns to see the Mane Six, Team Sonic and Spike standing in the doorway]. Nonetheless, it was easy to see why this was such a serious incident. "Girls, tell me Twilight wasn't right. Meanwhile, very much unbeknownst to Celestia, Luna had taken the decision to head off to the Sparkle family home. [evil laugh], [The scene changes to the pavilion where the wedding is starting]. Soon, Shining Armour and Cadance went over to their wedding carriage to start their honeymoon. Shining Armour turns to Twilight]. I just..". With authority, the baby dragon approached the Princess of Love to state his business. "No Luna. Because Big Macintosh knew that that was really unreasonable and quite frankly very rude, So Applejack made the conclusion that Shining was actually quite rude and shouldnt have said what he said. Pinkie Pie: So she imprisoned you before we got here! I was left feeling alone and betrayed, believing the ponies did not celebrate my night like they worshipped Celestia's day. "Proceed Commander." "Applejack, ah' have lived a long, long life. Tails: Yeah, I mean, we should be fine, as long as there aren't any booby traps. His face was initially grim with dread, but Shining recomposed himself, and dismissed the sentry. Twilight and her five friends here were suspicious of my behavior all along. All three had very well-developed and clever minds, which could use the full capabilities of their respective species to full advantage. Fluttershy spoke up, I thinkw-well..umshes never been wrong in the pastand c-considering how shes told us about Cadence in the pastshe d-does s-seem a bit offe-even for a bridezilla, Shining glared at the six ponies in front of him You are just defending her because shes your friend!, True, we are her friends and yes we are defending her! Not forgetting her strong sense of generosity, she decided to offer Cadance somewhere to sleep for the night. Such actions would be unworthy of his rank, as if he had not done enough to stain its honor already. [They turn to see Twinkleshine, Minuette and Lyra Heartstrings approaching them with green glows in their eyes]. To make matters worse, she was the Element of Honesty (or rather, the FORMER Element of Honesty) and therefore she couldn't tell a lie. "You heard her. ", Once more Celestia felt her heart shatter, and this made her feel worse; she and the Sparkle couple had been great friends since the day after they first met, but when it was announced to them that Twilight was to become her star pupil, Velvet had immediate reservations as Twilight was so precious to her as well as Night. She made a difference in Twilight when she forgot about friendship after becoming Princess Celestias star protge and you took her love for you for granted. Moments later, Princess Cadance, the bride, Twilight's former foalsitter and somepony with whom she was very close, appeared. She was sobbing, just loud enough for the Mane 5 to look up one by one in surprise. Although taken aback, Shining settled into his role, doing his best to soothe the tormented alicorn. What kind of ponies are you? She was cornered, and it could have been any more obvious to her. Much of Fimfiction's functionality requires javascript so we suggest you turn it on! Applejack: The point is, Cadance is stressed, Shining's stressed, you're stressed. Soon, Shining Armour and Cadance went over to their wedding carriage to start their honeymoon. Shadow: I have to agree, he's not gonna disown you over a temper tantrum. However, I cannot cast it without your permission, which is why I am here. Twilight shook her head. Not that anypony noticed. ", "Very well. I, ah, ooh, oooh! It did not take much to deduce that the trust a student held in her teacher now lay in tatters. If that wasn't enough, Princess Celestia, your benevolent sister and the object of Twilight's idolisation and inspiration, did not even look her in the eye when she crushed her spirit. Twilight was ravin' about Cadence being an impostor and repeatedly called her evil, which made her cry. We pan over to Black Panther), (Fastforward to Twilight's friends, Shining Armor and Princess Celestia), [Twilight nods to Pinkie who smiles and zooms to boomboxes and a record player and pull DJ Pon-3, a white mare with a blue mane and glasses on her from behind to play], (Photos were taken of Pinkie eating a cake, Applejack playing the fiddle, Spike and Sweetie Belle dancing, Rainbow Dash with Soarin, one of the Wonderbolts and Rarity with Fancypants. "We hurried." Everypony looked shocked at Twilight as she pranced back inside only to bump into Shining Armor, who was anything but pleased. If the damage was too great, they would then be assigned a temporary settlement, and led there by a designated Royal Guard soldier. Cadance sighed deeply. We already apologized for our mistakes! Spike had her well and truly beaten. ", "I see." She jumps away just before Twilight Sparkle and Fluttershy charge back at her, and they slam into each other face first. However, Twilight seemed to only cry harder. Night moved closer to his wife, who leaned close to him in response. When it was cast, the shield was laced with traces of hatred and anger. Their mistake, which deserved a big fat mark of shame. ", "We didn't listen to her when she tried to warn us" Added Fluttershy "So we knew we had to do something to help her. "We're waiting for Applejack and Princess Cadance. Merciless, unforgiving, unwilling to spare even the smallest quarter. She asked me if I knew a spell she had recently learned. Said Applejack soothingly. Sobbed Celestia. Whatever thunder Applejack was packing was quickly silenced. Queen Chrysalis: [chuckling] What a lovely but absolutely ridiculous sentiment. [He took a deep breath and belch out a scrool]. SubStar Unfortunately for Luna, she would be proven right as the group approached the throne room. ", "First thing's first though, I should probably go check on Twilight, make sure she's OK. As for you girls, you should probably go home and get some sleep. The first step will be to attack the Hive, and therefore we must set up a home defence. She didn't know it at the time, but she was late for the meeting. You're no fool. "After all, we need you to lead the Elements of-mmph!". In fact, Twilight even saw her dump a bag of muffins ah' gave her in the trash! Velvet and Night looked at each other in surprise, before returning their gaze to Luna. Just make this place suitable for a wedding again.. In fact, if I were you or your friends, I wouldn't show up to the wedding at all. Just like we make time for each other, I mean, sure I usually to save the world from Eggman, but I still make time to hang out with you guys. ". She totally criticized my flight skills! She is a mare now, not a foal. Opposite them, the garrison of Royal Guards was also rushing towards them, with the mission to take down Chrysalis and exile her and her troops from Canterlot. Rainbow cut in. Celestia has requested your presence in the wedding hall immediately.". How?". What.why are you here?". Tell me we didn't forsake innocent lives for a wedding". Thank you for the offer Rarity. Anypony who attempts to resist or to rescue her is to be dealt with immediately. Applejack: And you've got a big brother to go congratulate. That's when Twilight's irises started to expand and return to normal. Are you getting another one of your headaches? Sonic: Yeah, you've been like this since we got on. You may go." Celestia assured her she would be fine under her tutoring and she held that for years but the moment she and the others betrayed Twilight, she broke that promise. Apparently, the Bearer of Magic has distanced herself from her friends, convinced they had betrayed her and left her to die by my hooves. "Guards, let's go. Obviously, Twilight would be irked at the presence of those who betrayed her and left her for dead, so Cadance knew that somehow she would have to explain things in such a way that Twilight's anger would subside, and she would listen. Princess Cadance: Sunshine, sunshine, ladybugs awake. Amy Rose: Sonic, do you remember when after I was knocked unconcious, how you, lost yourself? I say to them: if that's what you truly feel like, then maybe you should not be watching the show During the Twilight wedding rehearsal takes place the next day, but Twilight is not there. GET OUT OF MY LIFE!!! Twilight Sparkle: He is pretty special. "But Princess, we can't just sit here and do nothing!" She, too, looked no great shakes. A flash cut pops up, as the Eunice punches Lyra Heartstrings in the cheek, Ester appearing behind her. [Cadance smiles and Twilight's eyes widen as she realizes that she is the real Cadance]. Maugrim added jubilantly. [She open her eyes and look to see Twilight and the others] Twilight, it's me! Twilight now had a new sense of appreciation for all of her old magic instructors. Cream: Can you believe it girls? ", "Of course your Majesty" Blade hissed in response. In the last invasion, Chrysalis tried employing a policy wherein her troops would not kill, even those who fought against them. "Yes Luna. Princess Celestia: Hm. Spike: Sure am! This time, she would show no mercy. Shining replied grimly. "You too Cady, thanks for coming. "Which is why I suggest we hide in the Everfree Forest. The Changeling who is disguised as me is their queen. And in the process, the seven ponies whom she held dear, particularly her brother, showed their true colors. "Never. ", "You have nothing to be sorry for my dear sister. "Twilight has left the city with Spike". "That is a question I am tormented with every day ma'am." "Please don't leave me." The aura around the room and the three ponies inside it shattered to pieces like a sonic boom. How can you expect me to just forget what happened?". "Y-yeah, sure." She was still very ticked off at the Mane 5, not just because they were invading her space, but also because she couldn't trust them to walk out on her again. "I will not fail you.". So it's easy to imagine how exhausted he must have been. You want to say sorry? Knuckles: [whispers] Okay, now that's just harsh. "You see, while my sister did care for me, and while my subjects worshipped me in equal measure, Celestia was the only one between us who witnessed the ponies celebrating her day and singing her praises. "Princess, we have brought your sister as you requested.". How could you walk out on your best friend like that?! With that, Luna walked out the household door, before spreading her wings and taking off into the darkness, the moon (which she had lifted prior to flying to the Sparkle family home) lighting the way ahead. Rook Blonko drags Shining Armor offscreen, as he leaves a wet trail. Sonic: Yeah [to the Mane Six] Sorry we didn't believe you girls. Chrysalis had her enemies right where she wanted them, and it was all thanks to Twilight that this was possible. Queen Chrysalis: Hmm! We're not stupid enough to fall for the same trick twice! In fact, it was because of Twilight that she was freed from the clutches of Nightmare Moon, a deed that truly won her sister's praise and gratitude. As Shining Armor stared into Cadances eyes and held her tightly, neither of them noticed Twilight standing off to the side. It's almost she like wants to wreck the wedding. My friends and I think you're making a big, [They turn to see Cadance standing on top of the stairs, frowning at them]. Luna responded. "Oh mah" Said Applejack, horrified. Shadow: Hmm, I'm surprised you're only now figuring this whole thing out. Spike looked up to see Twilight, her face as blank as stone. 1,820,875 hits today, 2,485,806 yesterday, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Fanfiction First things first. You do realize the reception's been cancelled, don't you? Shining Armor looked back at the orange earth pony with anger, You stay out of this Applejack! "Princess, it's getting late. [gets on Twilight's back]. [jumps up and tries to hit Chrysalis but she gets out of the way] Huh? Princess Celestia tells him they're busy at the moment, and Black Panther offers to help, but they refuse. Amy Rose: And it will take much more than a simple wedding to tear us apart. "Twilight, I won't fool around with you. Chrysalis turn arounds and gasps in horror when they saw this. Cadance headed back to the library to help Twilight and Spike cool off, Rainbow went back to her cloud house in Cloudsdale, the mission to repair the broken bond with Twilight stuck firmly in her mind. "Maybe you're right, I probably had went a little to far with that. At the moment, Twilight only trusts me and Spike, so it's better if I talk to her. "Hello Cadance.". ah' was crying last night because of something terrible that ah' did. She considered herself a hypocrite for having taught Twilight all those lessons about friendship and magic, only to show nothing by herself. She understood that Cadance was trying to play peacemaker, but the odds were against her, and the Mane 5 too. Replied Applejack, slightly unsure of what was about to happen. I'll never leave you Twily" Said Cadance soothingly. Are you okay? She smiles sheepishly at him]. Shining walked past Cadence, No it cant! he winced at a major migraine attack. Twilight Sparkle: I will be presiding over the ceremony, but would very much like you and your friends to help with the preparations for this wonderful occasion. Fimfiction is in no way affiliated with or endorsed by Hasbro Inc.. The sheer force of it was overpowering. Tails: Eh, I'm sure Rarity will update them later, well, if she's to it at least. However, the pony she opened the door to was unlike anypony she could've possibly expected, her eyes going wide and her jaw dropping to denote her shock. In fact, I'm sure Shining and Celestia have realized just how badly they screwed up by now. Panting heavily, she turned to face Shining, tears streaming down her face. Just wait until you see what I have planned for the bachelor party! The reason he left lay largely with popular choice, and that was to just leave Twilight to think about what she had done. Whispered Luna, comforting her sister. You saved us all! Her mane was half-inflated, a sign of her misery, and her eyes had bags, an obvious indicator she did not sleep well. Sonic: Oh, uh [looks around] [to Luna] Teleportation Spell, QUICK! Cadance, bewildered by Twilight's accusations. "Take that back Twilight! Clearly you are the worst examples of friends I have ever seen, because you are all perfectly ready and willing to leave Twilight when it suits you, now am I right or am I not?". " That was the question burdening Applejack's mind, however. Silver: Alright, you did it! Spike could only smile at that. Accidents do happen. She was still listening, despite this. While aggressively cornering Cadance, Twilight condemns Cadance's behavior towards her friends, the sudden disappearance of the bridesmaids, and the spell she cast on Shining Armor. Twilight gave a silent sigh as Rarity sewed up her hem with a few quick stitches. The walls, floor and roof were cast marble, a red carpet stretching from the door to Celestia's bed, equally an impressive sight as the room itself. Second, I kinda understand why everyone and Shining got mad at Twilight; they didn't know Cadence was Chrysalis, so they probably thought she was just insulting Cadence for no reason. It is I who should be remorseful and ashamed. [The others look at each other in confusion]. "Have you completed your missions Captain? He proceeded to knock on the door. Surely you haven't forgotten, right? Meanwhile, Rarity had managed to pull herself together. See you all very soon. "State your business." [evil laugh]. [laughing] Nope, over here! Twilight Sparkle: Looks like we really are on our own girls. "Thank you Luna. As for the stallion himself, he and his officers were gathered in the castle's war room, where they were coordinating patrol routes, reconstruction efforts and new areas of temporary resettlement. This was made worse with the memories of Fake Cadance sending her into the depths of the Canterlot Caves through a ring of burning green flames, followed by the former taunting Twilight about how nopony would think to look for her, considering nopony even knew the caves existed, and topping all of this was the memory of Twilight finding the real Cadance. Fluttershy gave a grateful smile and nodded before slowly approaching her critter friends. Shining Armor: [muffled] I look, look, she's okay, Princess Cadance: [muffled] Just listen to me, [over Shining Armor] alright? "I have no time to lose. It looks like most of the food was blown up, what with how much frosting is on the walls. Twilight frowned, looking around at the confection splattered walls in disbelief. And in Twilight's case, alone, afraid, and very hurt?". Greater matters such as this always overruled the minor details, a fact Cadance did not forget. Twilight Sparkle: Yeah, and those are my friends, Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rarity and Rainbow Dash, and let's not forget Spike. We thought leavin' her alone to think about what she had done would be best for her.". "Oh my Celestia, my poor Twiley!" "Princess, I'm curious. With an instant feeling of urgency coursing through her body, Luna was quick to acquiesce to Shining's orders. But how did you escape my bridesmaids? In a sudden rush of sheer and profound joy, Twilight's suspicions about the Fake Cadance were finally cemented with her discovery of the real Cadance, because if she were wrong about Fake Cadance being evil, trying to defend her case would be a foal's gambit. "Following your departure to oversee the wedding rehearsals, I was manning the watch as usual, until Cadance flew up to me. May I come in?" Espio: We found them in the abandoned caves, Princess. Cream: Oh, goodness Miss Twilight! No one can hear you. Unfortunately her mind would not serve the same purpose, constantly tormenting her with the still fresh memories of herself and the girls abandoning Twilight at the rehearsal and her subsequent reaction following the victory over the Changelings. Chat! A storm was crashing down upon the Black Widow's Peaks, rain as thick as glass soaking the jagged mountaintops. Bracing himself, Snake Bite cued to Chrysalis he was ready to receive the intel. I was right! "Yes Dad." Please forgive me, I should've never left with the others. Somewhere in the outskirts of Canterlot, Chrysalis regained consciousness after suffering both a heavy defeat and a long fall from Canterlot Castle deep into the province's borderlands. They had a fight similar to this, but never in 1 million years would her older brother disinvite her to anything because of a silly little accusation. Replied Velvet. Total duration Sonic: Yeah, he's a evil genius who keeps trying to take over the world with his robot empire, he's also pratically the reason why us and most of Mobius ended up stuck in this dimension in the first place!
