Prologue
It had certainly been a strange new life in Equestria. Twilight Sparkle used to live in Ponyville as a Unicorn Pony. Her life had certainly changed when she wrote and created new magic. This transformed her into an Alicorn making her a Princess. Now she didn't have a palace herself but like all Princesses, in addition to her horn she had wings. Right now a purple Alicorn with a violet mane and tail flew in the air. Her mane also had a pink stripe in it as well on her flank was a huge red star. She was still taking flying lesson with a cyan pegasus Pony with a rainbow mane and tail. One the Pegasus's flank was a rainbow colored lightning bolt coming from a cloud.
"You're doing well Princess Twilight!" the Pegasus Pony said "You've certainly improved sense last time."
"You're too kind Rainbow Dash" Twilight tells her friend "I'm still not so great at this. I've almost crashed ten times."
"It's better then fifty times" Rainbow Dash told her friend.
The two ponies land on the ground as it was going to turn into night soon. Twilight Sparkle turns to her friend "Thanks again for teaching me how to fly Rainbow."
"You're welcome" Rainbow Dash told her friend.
The two ponies were approached by a purple dragon with green scales "Princess Twilight! How'd it go?"
"She did better then last time Spike" Rainbow Dash answered for her friend.
Twilight Sparkle turns to the Baby Dragon whom had grown a bit taller so that he was half the size of Twilight Sparkle herself. This time it wasn't by greed but by regular growth. The Alicorn now addresses him "Well I suppose we should get ready for bed..." She pauses turning to her friend Rainbow Dash "I'll meet you tomorrow to train some more."
"Say no more!" Rainbow Dash said waving her hoof.
The three went into their homes where Twilight Sparkle and Spike went up there rooms to sleep for the night.
While they were resting it wasn't Twilight Sparkle that had a dream, it was Spike that had a weird dream. Normally he wouldn't have remembered the dream if it didn't involve a white unicorn with a beautiful purple mane and tail. On the Unicorn's flank was three diamonds. The name of the unicorn was Rarity, Ponyville's fashion designer and his crush. This time however his dream didn't have the Unicorn he loved. Instead he dreamed of a red stone castle that was very, very, peaceful then a dark cloud came over the Abbey signaling danger was approaching the red stone castle. As war raged a mouse in armor strolls up "Spike, my home is in grave danger by an enemy you know. You and three others must find my home to warn them of danger and to forefil your destiny."
Then without warning the dream ends and Spike wakes up "I shall! but where is your home and who are you?"
Twilight Sparkle hears Spike's shout and wakes up "Spike? Who are you talking too?"
Spike looks around "Uh, I dreamed of some pony. One that wasn't Rarity."
He noticed Twilight putting a hoof under her chin as Spike told her "I'll tell you tomorrow promise."
Twilight Sparkle gives him a nod and the two fell back to sleep, but for some strange reason, Spike would remember the dream he had. As the Baby Dragon tried to sleep his mind was now puzzled on two questions. One was, who was this mouse in armor? And the other, where was his home located. Then a third question came into his mind, what was the enemy that was attacking the Red Stone Castle, the mouse indicted it was somepony he knew or something he knew. Despite this he would try to fall asleep.
While Twilight Sparkle and Spike slept. A tall black insect like pony appeared in the Everfree Forest. She was pitch black with holes around her hooves. She had insect like wings and green eyes. She looks defiantly in the direction of Canterlot. She looked to conquer Equestria, then came the news of another peaceful place. One that would make her failure to take Equestria appear to be nothing. Unlike most villains she wasn't drawn to the rumors of treasures deep inside a Red Stone Castle. She wanted it's inhabitants. She wanted the inhabitants love so she and her fellow minions could gain more power. Sure she might've failed to conquer Equestria but an unguarded castle that was full of peaceful creatures should've been an easy target. Besides once that castle fell she could take command of the creatures in the Red Stone Castle and the creatures living in it's area to attack Canterlot and conquer Equestria.
"My fellow subjects!" The creature spoke "We may have failed to conquer Equestria that day but sense that defeat I have learned about a newer castle. One full of love for us to feast on. Now is the time to search for it and commence a successful invasion! NOW WHO IS WITH ME? IF YOU ARE SHOUT YOUR QUEEN'S NAME!"
The rest of her minions whom were all smaller then her but the same thing as her roared out in agreement shouting her name "QUEEN CHRYSALIS!"
Queen Chrysalis grins evilly laughing "That's what I thought, none of you would dare to say no. Anyway at first light we move out trying to find that Red Stone Castle!"
End of Prologue
This is the end of the Prologue. I hope everyone enjoys this new story. I did have Spike grow a bit taller so he could face off against opponents as well. It also looks like the Changelings will be back and will be the main villain of the series.
