Changelings have been depicted as cruel, heartless, love stealing monsters. Multiple ponies across Equestria would love to watch the race burned from the earth. But nopony ever realizes that changelings too wear masks. And behind them, is a broken soul.

Queen Chrysalis is the only surviving member of the Changeling race. After killing her starved race in a mad attempt at food by invading the famed Canterlot Wedding, Chrysalis has to look for a mate in a nearby town, hoping to stay hidden long enough that she could start to not only rebuild her race, but the valley she had created between Changelings and Ponies. The problem is, she never expected her most likely mate to be the one who had helped her race meet their deaths.

This story is a REDUX of an old popular fic that was unfortunately cancelled and deleted by myself when keeping up with it and other stories became to much. It then received a small reboot by a fan, that soon ended after three chapters. Now you guys get to read the still in progress ECWM REDUX! The original story plot is different, so old, hardcore fans will receive scenes that are from the original, but others that are different. I will also be trying to make this longer than before, (Then again, it died 1/4 of the way through.) So I do hope you guys enjoy this enchanced blast from the past that I will try to work on when I can along with all my other stories that are sitting collecting dust.

Twilight and Chrysalis have been betroth to each other since they were fillies, but that was years ago. Now 10 years later the announcment of Cadence and Shining Armor wedding but that doesn't shock her what surprises Twilight is that she gets an invitation about her wedding also. What does this all mean to twilight? How can she love someone she doesn't remember. What's the true purpose behind these weddings?

Rating will change later on.

Chrysalis has the perfect scheme to bring Twilight Sparkle under her sway and have all that delicious love to herself. In fact, she'd dare say it's a real page turner.

WARNING: THIS STORY HAS BEEN DEEMED AN OLD SHAME. IT DOES NOT REFLECT THE AUTHOR'S CURRENT WORK, AND IN FACT SUCKS ASS. FOR PRESERVATION PURPOSES IT WILL REMAIN.

Twilight foils Chrysalis's plan yet again, and there is absolutely nothing more to this story.

This story is a sequel to Changeling Courtship Rituals

After many years of battle, Queen Chrysalis has finally defeated Twilight Sparkle.

To Twilight's surprise, she discovers that to changelings, this means they are now married. However, she has some thoughts about this...

***

A reboot/remake of Changeling Courtship rituals, where Twilight reacts in a much more normal way, rather than like a sitcom character.

Many things smooth the way for diplomacy and diplomacy smooths the way for many things. Twilight's efforts to reach out with friendship to the changeling queen have made life better for everyone- but how MUCH better can things be? The changeling queen has a question for Twilight that she may not be ready for...

Content warning given for implied sexual activity only.

Once-Queen Chrysalis has had her schemes blow up in her face yet again. Naively, she thought, this time would be different. Take their power for her own, and it would be a simple matter to enact her revenge. She did not expect to end her scheme crippled, starving, and in the hooves of the pests that ruined her life.

Twilight and her friends have had a rough day. An argument during their trip through the woods nearly had them at each others throats, but they pulled through together and laughed about it in the end. They didn't expect to end their day with them taking one of the greatest threats to Equestria into custody. And Twilight certainly didn't expect herself to be extending her hoof to another poor, lost soul, trying to help them find their way.

(Begins at the very end of 'The Mean 6', diverges from canon)

(Set a month after the events of the season 4 finale)

Chrysalis has returned to Canterlot, but this time under a flag of truce, instead of a banner of war. She has come because her race is dying, and much to everponies surprise, the last hope for her race is in Equestria.

However, nopony is prepared for the news of who is carrying this last hope, nor the ramifications of what this last hope is likely to bring.

Rating: Rated teen for some sexual scenes and violence in later chapters.

Warning Number 1: Later chapters may contain scenes of graphic violence, viewer discretion is advised.
Warning Number 2: Despite the similar title, this is not a ponyfied version of the movie Enemy Mine.
Warning Number 3: I know Twilight is a unicorn in the cover, but she will be an alicorn in the story, just so no-one is confused.
Warning Number 4: Twilight's brother Shining Armor will me getting a major change to his character portrayal throughout the course of this fic, a change that will involve some dark undertones, which is one of the reasons for the dark tag.
Final Warning: This fic will delve deep into a fannon portrayal of changeling hive structure, hierarchy, and culture, so those who already have head cannon's behind those and are unwilling to accept or tolerate new ones should probably steer clear of this fic.

Chrysalis is sick of Twilight always getting in the way of her plans. So sick of it, in fact, that she's willing to do anything in her power to stop Twilight from stopping her. She'll even go so far as to fall in love with her greatest foe.

Being a changeling is not easy, mainly due to having to feed on love, but the most difficult is having to find it to feed. Fortunately for Chrysalis, this is not a problem that she needs to worry about anymore. With her and Twilight together, Chrysalis found a way to feed on love without having to suck on the pony: which is through physical contact, praise and loving words. But one morning, she wakes up hungry, and Twilight knows how to feed her hungry marefriend.
