"I'M DISAPPOINTED IN YOU CHANGELINGS! NOW, YOU HAVE ONLY EMBARRASSED YOURSELF IN FRONT OF WEAK PONIES!" Chrysalis was really enraged.
I looked down because I nearly felt myself tearing up inside. Chrysalis saw me and shouted "Hey you! Toughen up! We changelings do not show signs of weakness. We STEAL love, we don't SHARE love! Ugh, I can't even look at you..." She turned at walked away gracefully.
I sighed and flew away. I heard a changeling's footsteps behind me. I fixed my look and turned to look down at Pharynx. "What do you want, Pharynx..." I asked. Pharynx remained silent. He came up to me and hitted me softly, but before I could hit him back, I hitted myself. It was a silly prank Pharynx used to play on me when I was feeling weak, saying that I needed to toughen up. He smiled, still keeping a straight face and flew away.
I still felt weak. I decided to just fly around to get things out of my mind for a bit. I knew where I was going, I just didn't know why I went to wherever I was going. I ended up in the middle of nowhere.
I couldn't see any changelings, it was just walls with holes that keep changing shapes and sizes. I wasn't familiar with this part of the hive. I wanted to get back to where every changeling was. Before I could even get to the hole, a big black figure stood between me and the hole. I looked up, and I knew I was not gonna Ike this.
Queen Chrysalis was still full of rage. She walked towards me slowly and smiled swiftly. "Not many changelings manage to get this far in the hive, unless they're patrollers, but you aren't a patroller, are you? She asked.
I stammered and said "N-no, but my brother Pharynx is.", Pharynx was worthy of becoming a patroller, you had to be brave and fierce. Something I was unable of doing.
Queen Chrysalis started walking while talking, I wanted to get back but the hole had already vanished. "Ahhhh, yes. Pharynx, he was such a loyal one. Fair at judgement. While all of you were still young and fragile, I silently saw how you bugs acted alone and with others. Among all of you, Pharynx was the strongest. I saw how he protected you, one of the weakest changelings in the hive." I actually agreed on one thing, I was the weakest changeling there.
"When you were playing with your useless dollies, I knew you were gonna get bullied, and you did. I didn't stop the bullies from bullying since I thought you could toughen up a bit, but you didn't... Instead, it was your brother who toughened up a LOT. When you two grew older, old enough to attack outside of the hive. I picked Pharynx for the job as leader of the changeling patrols. I didn't regret the decision. He was perfect. I didn't know what to do with you, so I just let you off. You didn't cause trouble, so that's one, unlike the others, so I guess letting you off was the only thing I could do." She finished.
"Oh. I didn't know that you thought of us like that." I said in a rather sarcastic tone.
"Huh. You ought to know that years ago." I did, and I found it quite offensive. I didn't say that to Queen Chrysalis, since it would show I'm even weaker than she expected.
The hole appeared again behind us. "The hole. It's open, you should get back to your brother, especially if you're planning to come here again." That was probably the nicest thing I've heard from Queen Chrysalis mouth. We went in the hole one by one, I went to where everyone else is while Queen Chrysalis went into a darker hole in an opposite direction.
