Luna woke up and lifted her head off the floor. She noticed that Twilight and Chrysalis had left the room. Luna wondered where they went. But Luna knew she should find a way to stop them both. To tell the truth, Luna intended to stop Chrysalis and find a way to make Twilight good. Because even though Twilight was faking it all the time, she saw Twilight as her first friend. She intended to leave the room she was in, but a voice stopped her.
“Princess, won’t you help us?”
Luna looked back and saw that it was Rainbow Dash. Applejack wished the ooze wasn’t in its hulls, because that way she could, with her hull, cover Rainbow Dash’s mouth. Luna approached where Cadence, Shining Armor and their friends were, “I’m sorry, friends. I forgot about all of you”, Luna tried to use her magic to peel the gooies off her friends and Cadence, and luckily, she did it.
Cadence saw that Shining Armor was standing still. She approached him, but Shining Armor said nothing and did nothing. Cadence felt tears in her eyes. She hugged him. While doing this, her magic made a heart and went to Shining Armor’s face before bursting. Shining Armor squinted for a moment before shaking his head, “what… what’s happened?” Cadence smiled.
Shining Armor looked around confusedly. Why did the wedding guests disappear? Where was your sister? “Where are the guests? Where is Twilight?”
Everypony except Shining Armor got nervous. How would they explain to Shining Armor that Twilight was actually a Changeling? Applejack decided to reply, “About the guests is because the Changelings have invaded Canterlot”
Shining Armor was confused but surprised at the same time. How? How did the Changelings invade? But most importantly, how did the Changelings manage to destroy the shield he placed? “I dont understand. How did the Changelings destroy the shield?”
Cadence approached Shining Armor, “Chrysalis, the Queen of Changelings, has been feeding on your love, and it has made you weak, just like your spell to protect Canterlot”
Shining Armor got scared. He failed Canterlot and all Equestria. But he decided to believe he still had hopes, “and Twilight? She is fine? Where’s she?”
Applejack was unsure. How would she explain it without hurting Shining Armor’s feelings? “About Twilight… She… Yeah… Let’s say…”
But Spike interrupted her, “... Twilight was a Changeling all the time!” Applejack looked at Spike unhappy.
Shining Armor was surprised, but then laughed, “ok. That was good, Spike”
Spike was surprised that Shining didn’t believe him, “no, Shining. It is true”
“Sorry, Spike. But you will have to prove it”, said Shining Armor. Spike was sad. Rarity comforted him.
“I know how we can prove it”, said Cadence with an idea.
“Really? What’s your idea?” asked Shining Armor.
Princess Cadence used a spell so she, Shining Armor, and the others could see a scene that has already happened. Cadence showed the scene when Twilight got in the middle of the upcoming fight.
”You may have taken the love of Shining Armor, but you, your daughter, and your subjects will not dominate Equestria”, said Celestia, before heading toward Chrysalis. Twilight realized she had to do something and she did. She intervened the fight that was going to start by getting in the middle. Twilight was looking at Celestia unhappy. Unlike Chrysalis, who smiled at that.
Shining Armor was surprised by this. Why was Twilight defending a villain?
Celestia was surprised by this, “Twilight, could you please get out of the way?”
“No! I will not get out of the way. And you won’t hurt my mother”, said Twilight Sparkle, still looking at Celestia. Everypony except Chrysalis and Shining Armor sighed in surprise at the last two words. But the ponies that were most surprised were the ‘friends’ of Twilight, Spike, Cadence and mostly Celestia.
Shining Armor was surprised by the last two words. Was Chrysalis the mother of your sister? It cannot be true. Twilight’s parents were Twilight Velvet and Night Light. Twilight could only be kidding. It couldn’t be true.
“Twilight, what are you talking about? Your parents are Twilight Velvet and Night Light”, said Celestia, still not believing.
“They were never my real parents. I pretended to be a fatherless foal so a family could ‘adopt’ me.
Celestia couldn’t believe it, “but what about you being my student, Twilight? You were happy when you accepted to be my student”
What Twilight would say next would shock her, “I faked it all the time. You were never a mother and teacher to me”
Shining Armor was surprised that Twilight spoke to Celestia that way.
Celestia was saddened by these words and began to cry. Everypony except Twilight, Chrysalis and Shining Armor were surprised. Rainbow Dash was annoyed, “How dare you make the princess cry?! ”Rainbow Dash intended to fly to Twilight to give her a piece of her mind. But Rarity held her with her magic.
Twilight Sparkle laughed at that, “What’s up, Rainbow Crash? Are you offended?”
Rainbow Dash began to cry upon seeing this scene again. Applejack comforted her.
Rainbow Dash stopped struggling and landed on the floor shocked by what she heard, “what did you call me…?”
“I called you Rainbow Crash, Rainbow Crash!” exclaimed Twilight Sparkle with a mean smile on her face.
Rainbow Dash couldn’t believe her friend was teasing her. She was fighting not to cry, “What happened to you, Twilight? Why are you like that?”
Twilight Sparkle looked at the owner of the voice and saw that it was Cadence, “well, well. If it’s not my boring babysitter!”
Shining Armor was shocked to see Twilight call Cadence boring. What happened to your sister?
Cadence was offended by the comment, but continued to say, “Twilight, why are you supporting Chrysalis? She is a threat to all Equestria ”
Twilight Sparkle was annoyed by this, “Don’t talk about my mom like that!”
Shining Armor couldn’t accept the truth. He looked incredulous.
Cadence was surprised by the way Twilight spoke to her. Twilight was never about being angry or yelling at her, “Twilight, I still don’t understand. Why do you see Chrysalis as your mother?”
“Because I’m a Changeling”, answered Twilight Sparkle.
Shining Armor was shocked by this revelation. No. It couldn’t be true. Your sister couldn’t be a changeling.
“Twilight, you’re not a changeling. I know that because you has no ability to change shape”, said Cadence.
Twilight knew Cadence would underestimate her and not believe her, but she knew what to do. Twilight closed his eyes, used her magic and did the same as his mother did to reveal herself to be Changeling. Changeling wings appeared, the lavender color of the hooves became a dark purple and the unicorn horn became a changeling horn with holes. Twilight opened his eyes, and his eyes were different: The pupil was a slit, the iris was purple lilac. And her mane and tail had holes, the pink stripe of the mane and tail was a stronger shade of pink, like a hot pink, and the purple stripe was now lilac.
Shining Armor felt like crying as his sister revealed herself. Was your own sister a Changeling?
Everypony was surprised to see the true identity of Twilight, the only one smiling was Chrysalis, because after all, Twilight was her daughter. She had no reason to be afraid or surprised at Twilight’s true identity.
Celestia couldn’t believe what she was seeing: The foal that she always considered her daughter was actually a Changeling all the time. She began to cry again. Twilight looked at Celestia. She smiled wickedly. Seeing Celestia suffer this way made her feel great.
Shining Armor couldn’t believe that Twilight was smiling wickedly that she was watching Celestia cry.
Celestia knew she couldn’t just cry, she needed to do something. But what would she do? What good would it be to ask the friends of Twilight to pick up the elements of harmony? Without Twilight, the elements wouldn’t work. Twilight represented the element of magic.
When the scene was over, Shining Armor felt like he was crying. Cadence looked at Shining Armor, “So, Shining? Do you believe us now?”
Shining Armor still seemed to deny the truth, “no… it can’t be true…”
“I’m sorry, Shining. But it’s true. I didn’t believe it at first either”, said Cadence.
“But she was so happy to finally have a family…”
“She pretended and lied well to all of us”
Shining Armor couldn’t take it and decided to leave, “Shining, where are you going?”
Shining Armor looked back, “I’m going to my room, Cadence. I need to reflect on that”, when Shining Armor left, he closed the door.
Applejack went to Luna, “now we just have to release Princess Celestia”
Luna looked up and saw Celestia still in the cocoon. Luna flew to the cocoon, “Sister, are you alright?”
“Yes, Luna. Although being upside down for a long time is making me dizzy now”, replied Celestia as she put a hoof on her head.
“Don’t fear, sister. We will help you out of the cocoon”, said Luna, before using her magic to destroy the cocoon, but it had no effect, “strange. Why couldn’t I destroy the cocoon, but the gooies I could?”
Applejack said now, “maybe cocoons are tougher than goo”
Luna looked at Applejack, “may be true, Applejack”
In the hallway, Shining Armor was still puzzled by the truth. It couldn’t be true. They could only be lying. It could only be a lie. It couldn’t be true. While walking several royal guards raised an eyebrow, “Captain, is everything all right?”
Shining Armor looked at the royal guard, “yes. Don’t worry”
The guard didn’t seem to believe his captain’s words, “Are you sure, captain? Looks like something is bothering you”
“Don’t worry about me. I’ll be fine. I’ll just go to my room”, said Shining Armor, now looking to the side.
The guard decided not to question anymore and allowed Shining Armor to pass. Yes. The guard was in front of his captain. When Shining Armor walked again, thoughts of her sister still perplexed her. It couldn’t be true. Was your sister a Changeling? Cadence said Twilight pretended and lied well, but he couldn’t believe what Cadence said. This Changeling could only be another Changeling. The real Twilight had to be somewhere in Equestria. When he arrived in the room, Shining Armor opened the door and closed the door with his magic, went to his bed to reflect on the truth that was told to him.
