Due to its crossover status, this story is not canon with the Locust Hive series.

Queen Erranda is the leader of a tiny, nomadic hive of changelings known as the Locust Hive. Unlike the hive led by Queen Chrysalis, the Locust Hive is very much like their namesake. Being less reliant on love, they feed off of material food to survive, like normal animals.

One day, while feeding on a section of forest in eastern Equestria, the rigid Queen Erranda becomes more and more controlling, and her drones grow to resent her behavior. When they come across a mysterious old woman, who calls herself Mother Mae-Eye, offering stacks upon stacks of pies, the Locusts are overjoyed and they chow down, in spite of Erranda's warnings.

But by the time she uncovers the truth about Mother Mae-Eye, it was already too late, for her children come under an evil spell that causes them to believe that Mae-Eye is - and always has been - their mother. And that's just the beginning of her problems, for the witch wants to use the drones for an even greater plan - one that could destroy all of Equestria!

Can Queen Erranda improve her ways and save her hive before Mother Mae-Eye carries out her nefarious plot?

Note: This fan fiction crosses over with the Teen Titans television show, which is produced by Warner Bros. Animation and DC Entertainment. Cover image created by me, with some editing help from my dad.
