“I think we could beat them, but we better not try anything stupid. Let’s go back to Ponyville, warn Twilight, and come up with a plan with her.”

“Yeah, it’s probably better to not take any risks,” Party Favor agreed.

“It could be dangerous to stay in the village, so do you guys want to come with us until it’s safe to come back?” Starlight asked.

“Yeah, we probably should go,” Double Diamond answered, “and we can just postpone the Sunset Festival.”

With that, we left the cave and all headed back to Ponyville. The clock was ticking, so we needed to get to Twilight was fast as possible.

Back at the castle, with the villagers waiting outside, Starlight and I busted through the castle doors and I called out, “Twilight! Twilight! Are you here?!”

Twilight ran from a door in the library with a frown. “What? What? What’s wrong?!”

I was about to explain the situation, but just in case, I asked, “Twilight? How many books have you ever thrown away?”

“What kind of question is that, Jake? You know that I would never throw away a book!”

I gave a sigh of relief. “Yep, it’s really you, Twi.”

Twilight rubbed her head. “I’m so confused right now. Why wouldn’t I be me?”

Since we knew she was the real Twilight Sparkle, Starlight explained, “We just found out that the changelings are going to try to capture you, our friends and the other Princesses!”

Twilight’s eyes grew and she gasped. “What?!”

“Yeah! After you are all captured, Queen Chrysalis and the changelings would have nopony that could stop them!” I explained.

“The changelings have returned?! Oh, uh, okay, first, we need to warn Princess Celestia before it’s too late! Spike?! Where are you?! I need to write a letter to Princess Celestia!” I could tell from Twilight’s eyes that she was struggling to keep from freaking out, but she held it together.

Twilight was able to warn the other Princesses just in time; the changelings were about to make their move on them. But thanks to our warning, with Twilight’s and our friends’ help, they were stopped.

After the group that accepted to capture the Princesses were themselves captured, they told us where Queen Chrysalis and the changeling hive was. The Princesses, Starlight, Shining Armor, our friends, and the Royal Guards all went to the changeling hive and forced Queen Chrysalis to flee. Twilight thought up a plan to get around their magic not working near the changeling hive.

I should be scared that a being as strong as her is on the loose. But I’m too mad at how she wanted to go after Twilight Sparkle and my other friends to be scared.
