Changing Friendship

by Make Space Jam 2


Story of a Changeling

Well I now find myself in a greatly locked down cell in a castle in Canterlot. Facing an execution, I am a bit nervous. I thought the ponies could be my friends, but my Queen was right. They'll never accept changelings and I thought I could prove her wrong. I never knew what having a friend could be like. Chrysalis was the only close thing I had to a friend before being sent to Ponyville and she was a bitch. I'm guessing you might want to know why I'm here.

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...

Ha just fucking with you. About a week ago...

It was a cool spring day. The sun was shining and few clouds were seen in the sky. In the distance I could see a couple small towns and another couple bustling trains. I was in the canyons south of the middle sized town of Ponyville. Where it is said everypony is friendly.

My name's Oorag but to Queen Chrysalis I'm known as my army number 10572. It's not a randomized number either it's because I'm the 10572nd changeling to be present in her army. There are ranks as well. I'm the youngest one to be up as high as I am. I used to have my own platoon as, well but during a mission they were killed because of a mistake I made. We were in the Canterlot castle trying to steal the key to access the Elements of Harmony. I didn't clean up my tracks well sneaking in so they were waiting for us behind a wall to our right, I told them to head out first but they were quickly thrusted onto with spears and killed. I managed to cling to a ceiling out of the guard's sight, after they ran off to find me I landed but I could hear two voices coming down a hallway, I transformed into a guard to fool them. It was Princess Celestia and Luna and I managed to barely fool them. Weeks had passed with me hiding in Canterlot until the strange thing everypony calls "Discord" came back.

I eavesdropped and watched a conversation in a long hallway where I saw the elements were in a wall that could only be opened with Celestia's horn. I flew out as fast as I could to our base in the canyons. The Queen didn't care about the platoon. She asked me to go back after Discord was gone and retrieve the elements. It was night when I went back. Luna was out on a balcony watching the city. I transformed into another guard to gain entrance to the castle. Once I was in a silently killed two guards that were in the same exact hallway. I transformed into Celestia to open the secret compartment at the end.

It was the first time I transformed into a form as big as them and a mare. It felt unusual but I shrugged it off. I trotted down to the end silently and put my new long horn into the same hole as Celestia did. The whole compartment opened but to my dismay I found nothing in there. An alarm went off. I apparently triggered a magic device. I transformed back into my regular form and flew back faster than ever to the base. The Queen was not happy at this moment. She stripped me of my army status. She did not banish me which I was thankful for but I thought my powers would go away.

But I remembered that when changelings first start in the army, as usual they are dumb and have little changing power. As they progress in rank though Chrysalis grants them free knowledge and freedom in thinking along with power. As power was gained transformations became more convincing. First would come flawless appearance, then mastery of their voice, and then personality (pretty much memories) which is only some pony at my level can achieve. But for some reason the Queen lacks the personality. During my time as a civilian in the canyons I was mocked by every changeling. They were not as smart as me though. Only one was and he was someone I'd call a pal. His name is Bergrow. He was the same rank as me. When he wasn't on a mission we'd hangout in the camps only to be yelled at by General Farrlow. He was the biggest prick of them all. I hate him with all my guts.

Well its been a couple weeks since I was stripped of my status. General walked into my little hut.

"Hey the Queen wishes to see you." The general said. I got up and flew over to her in ground castle. The chambers held high personnel guards including Bergrow. I bowed to the Queen.

"Oorag I am reinstating you. I need you to do an important mission. You're the only changeling who has ever gotten a glimpse of the elements. I need you to go to the town of Ponyville, where we last heard is the whereabouts of them, and retrieve them. You proved that you can't handle a platoon but that you can work alone efficiently and are very stealthy. Do whatever it takes to get them. Am I understood?" The Queen said.

"Yes ma'am." I said saluting. It was a dropped bomb but she has a good point. I wasted no time in leaving. I was getting suck of the mentally weak changelings. I flew in quick wasting no time with entrances. Bad move on my part I had to choose a form and quick before I was noticed. I noticed a cyan colored Pegasus way up in the sky. Perfect it seemed like no one else noticed her. I transformed into her. I trotted around nervously. I went into a tall building that seemed to give off a nice look in color. I found a mirror near by and looked in it. I had rainbow colored mane and tail now. The rest of me was cyan. A white pony with a purple mane and tail was about to leave when she noticed me.

"Ooo Rainbow Dash. Twilight wanted me to tell you that we're all going to be at her house if you want to come." She said. I looked in confusion. Am I Rainbow Dash? "Are you all right darling."

"Um yea I'm fine." I said in my new scratchy mare voice. I took a big gulp. I could feel myself sweating nervously.

"Well all right then come on." She said motioning for me to follow her.
