The soul and its old magic (dead story?)

Twilight had some explaining to do about the large slab of crystal that is now my hand.
I would not take no for an answer.

I asked what it was and other basic questions but I got nothing in return
She looked... Confused

Something was up and now I had to take control for once
I began looking through the books to see if I could find anything on crystal hands.
Of course since I was the only human in this place I didn't find anything
I began looking for spike thinking he could help me find something.
But he was gone too and since he never leaves without twilights command
This twilight could be... Nah I needed more proof

About a moment later I saw the stuff of nightmares
Twilight was under the ladder and was being held down with a green glow
Of all days to finally encounter these fucks they chose... Poorly

Turning back around I saw the fake locking the door
I took the chance to hide behind the bookshelf and get the one thing he will never see coming
Knowledge. I threw a book to the side as a distraction and the fake took the bait
At least I found a good use for the crystal gauntlet as it started burying into the back of the fake's head
With this twilight was free and she took a moment to walk over to the fake

"Are you ok?"I asked
She nodded and started looking for something
A closet.
And now after that encounter I could ask the real questions
"How long was it pretending to be you" I said looking at the creature
It's disguise faded away and in its place was a bug-like creature

"About an hour" she said out of breath
She took a few steps towards her room
She collapsed.

"Crap"

"Uh Noah?" Spike asked

"What is it spike?"

"A little help please?" He asked from the closest

I opened the door and out came spike

"What was all the commotion? Spike asked before finding it out himself
"Oh"
Really? That was all he could say to the giant bug?

"Could you take care of twilight? I have to... Well get help for this thing" I said looking at it
I could tell I got it good. It was still breathing. But it needs some serious help if it was going to make it
I unlocked the door and then was greeted with Apple jack and flutershy entering the house.

"Wow you woke up quick this-" she stopped and flutershy gasped when they saw twilight and the faker

"I need some help with this" I said

We carried twilight into her bed to rest and now all we had left was to figure out what to do with the bug

"If we are going to interrogate it or something. It needs help now"
It was pretty severe and I really thought I might have done it in
And I felt horrible.
It was all finally getting to me and I started tearing up
Only 17 and already a killer
Or I would be if it wasn't for the gauntlet
The thing was made with health in mind as the giant dent in its head started to fix itself
I stopped crying and just looked at it with disbelief
Nevertheless I still broke something.
when it finally got up It was about as friendly as pinkie
"Hi" the creature said with joy

"Ok I guess I did still break something" I said with a sigh

"What is it anyway" I asked

"Changelings" Apple jack said

The changeling looked around a bit confused

"Where am I?" It asked

Oh god it's much worse then I thought

"What's the last thing you remember?" I asked

The changeling opened its mouth but shut it when it didn't have an answer
It started to panic
"I can't remember!" It said and it started pacing

"Amnesia" I stated
So much for that interrogation
Flutershy started trying to trigger anything it would remember

"If it doesn't remember anything is it really that dangerous?" I asked Apple jack

"I wouldn't trust it" Apple jack stated
Sorry but that would be some advice I would need to ignore
As strange as it looked I couldn't just leave it
I had done this
This was my fault
I needed to help it

"Did you get anything?" I asked flutershy

She shook her head

I asked the changeling "would it be ok if I just give you a nickname until you remember yours?"

It nodded and I was ready to shoot ideas

"How about Sam?" I suggested

"Yeah I like that one ok I'm Sam" it said finally having a sense of identity

"Nice to meet you Sam. I'm Noah" I said intoducing myself

It started changing

It was a strange transformation
Eyes shifted bones rearranged
I shuddered and Sam looked like a pony

Sam had left the building
Good we had a changeling on the loose

I was angry and frustrated after Sam just leaving
I threw a book at the wall in rage and afterwards I noticed three things:
One: the book made a dent in the wall
Two: twilight's books are really durable
Three: I had never picked up a book

I felt week and started to blackout again...

Meanwhile

It was a cold winter in Canada only second to the shock of having your brother torn away from you in front of your eyes
About a month had passed. Trends coming and going the new thing in America was apparently getting out into the mountains. Our parents had been gone on a vacation when it happened
I was going to bed and on it was.. I don't even know it was gone as soon as it came leaving only one object to prove it was even real. A necklace and a note I sat down to read it before bed
It read:
"Dear Brendan

I am sorry for what you have witnessed that fateful night
I am willing to let you atleast communicate with your brother

With care; sugar"

I put on the necklace as it looked pretty cool
I felt very tired

I fell asleep feeling... Strange
