The Filly & The Changeling

Old Lives, New Memories

4 days into the future, Twilight Sparkle was truly alone for the first time ever since she met Alecia, she didn't know any of the ponies that ever came to visit her and she didn't feel like making friends with them not until she saw Alecia again.
"Oh Liloo where are you?" mumbled Twilight to herself for what felt like the millionth time.
Suddenly the door burst open, startling Twilight for a brief moment, and there standing in at the entrance of the doorway was a pink alicorn or what looked like one from the descriptions Twilight had heard about them.
"Oh Twilight you're back!" said the pink alicorn cheerfully
"..." Twilight didn't return the gesture
"Twilight don't you remember me?" asked the pink alicorn
"..." Twilight didn't respond continuing to stare out at the window
"Twilight...." the pink alicorn sadly trailed off.
"Sunshine sunshine ladybugs awake clap your hooves and do a little shake!" the pink alcorn recited the rhyme hoping to jog the unicorn's memories.
"..."Twilight didn't so much as glimpse at the pink alicorn still staring out the window.
"Twilight you need to get out into the sun...your friends are worried and waiting for you to come back," said the pink alicorn sadly.
"..." if Twilight heard what the pink alicorn said, she gave no sign of it.
Sighing the pink alicorn turned around and started to walk away.
"If or when you feel like you need help i'll be there for you... we all will" said the pink alicorn softly
"I'm worried and waiting for you to find me too Liloo" mumbled Twilight crying herself to sleep once again.

"Is she better? did she recognise you?" asked Spike
"sigh no Spike, she doesn't even recognise me at all the spell that did this to her was extremely powerful and i cast a spell as i was leaving to see who did this to her," said Cadance
"Well do we know who did it?" asked Spike concernly
"Yes... Twilight did it," replied Cadance grimly
"But why would Twilight do something like this to herself?" asked Spike
"I don't know maybe someone who had strong manipulative powers got into her mind and somehow convinced her to do it to herself? If that's the case we are dealing with a very serious threat." replied Cadance seriously
"Maybe its a changeling?" asked Spike
"No Spike she's not a changeling, i cast a changeling revealing spell with the magical aura tracing spell," replied Cadance
"Well i hope we get the old Twilight back soon the new Twilight seems very anti-social."said Spike
"I hope so too Spike i hope so too..." Cadance agreed.

Alecia woke up in a dark and damp room. with a splitting headache and multiple pains in various parts of her body however the most pain came from her back which seemed to have been broken...again. She was lucky the first time that her back didn't paralyse her for life. Now... only time would tell.
"Hello my child feeling better?" asked the voice who Alecia could immediately recognise belonged to her queen, Chrysalis.
"Never better in my life," replied Alecia sarcastically
"Hmm i see that your sense of humor isn't gone completely." said Chrysalis
"Where am i? this isn't the old hive..." asked Alecia
"Well this is the new hive of course! we couldn't use the old one for obvious reasons..." answered Chrysalis
"Unless the hive rules have been altered while i was away am i not currently a liability to you? i can't work" asked Alecia curiously
"A certain pony who went by the name of star... something saw you picked you up and brought you all the way here. I tried to ask him how he knew you and how he knew the location of our new hive. All he said was to take care of you and he just teleported away." replied Chrysalis
"Hmm... interesting i know of no ponies who have the star in their names..." mumbled Alecia
"Well anyways, you have a story to tell me, inform me about how you spent the last year without the hive. I bet it was difficult and almost drove you insane without anypony to keep you company wasn't it?" Chrysalis asked clearly excited to hear Alecia's tale
"Not really there was a little filly that i met in the forest... long story short we became friends and..." Alecia trailed off not wanting to think of what Twilight was going through when she saw their little house burnt down and Alecia not in it.
She'd probably think i was dead and burnt in the flames Alecia thought.
"Wait... so you actually cared for this filly and allowed her to influence your actions?" asked Chrysalis sternly
"Um... yeah" replied Alecia
"Have you forgotten the code? you do NOT let anypony get into your heart else they would influence your actions and cause you to lose sight of your jobs and what happens when we let people influence our actions? we will let our cover slip! it doesn't matter when or how but eventually you WILL let your cover slip and compromise the hive. Is that what you wanted to do? kill your family?" asked Chrysalis angrily
"Well my family hasn't exactly been helping me with my life have they? in fact i'll say that the filly i met was more family than any of you!" exclaimed Alecia
"You are walking on thin ice here Alecia let the next few words that you utter be pleasant to my ears or i will ignore the wishes of the stallion who brought you here," warned Chrysalis
"I...i'm sorry my queen" apologised Alecia knowing that she was in no state to argue with the queen of changelings.
"Good now you will assume your old job of lovehunter for the hive once you return to your former state of health," said Chrysalis as she opened the door," oh and don't disappoint me again Alecia or i'll have to kill you...again."
"sigh yes your highness," replied Alecia
I got my old life back but i don't want it anymore... i want my little Twily with me as we make memories before she grows up into the fine mare that i know she would become one day... thought Alecia sadly, it seems fate is cruel and would rather take away my only light in my life than let me simply be happy. Oh Twily where are you? You know i won't be able to rest so long as you're alone and scared... i just want you to move on and be happy. Even if that means forgetting about me.
Twily i won't ever forget the happiness you brought into my life... Thank you, without you i would have died a long time ago in a dark forest...alone.

Somewhere a few miles away, a lavender filly unicorn attempted an escape from a Crystal Empire.
