She's offering what you want!  Stay the **** quiet!




...MAKE NO NOISE! BE AS SILENT AS A GRAVE!




Stay quite, it seems like the best option, I mean, if she is offering you a chance of redemption, assuming thats not to be killed for you 'crimes' then Go with it




Do as she says, but be ready to teleport away the very second something goes wrong.




In spite of your urge to panic, a rational thought comes to mind; you realize that if the bride really wanted to harm you, she wouldn't be bothering with stealth and would've just turned you over already. You decide to hear her out (while also apologizing for the whole "almost ruining her wedding" thing), but keep an eye out for a potential exit while readying your magic for another teleportation spell.

 

In spite of your urge to panic, a rational thought comes to mind; you realize that if the bride really wanted to harm you, she wouldn't be bothering with stealth and would've just turned you over already. So you decide to stay as quiet as a grave. But, you keep an eye out for a potential exit while readying your magic for another teleportation spell just in case something goes wrong. You hear on the other side of the door a bunch of hoof-steps gallop by, as well as ponies shouting orders to one another to find the "evil" changeling.

A couple of minutes pass by before the bride removes her hoof from your snout. It's still to dark to see anything, so you can't tell if she moved away from you or not. Suddenly, the lights turn on in the room and you can finally see the bride. Aaaaand shes a alicorn....HOW DUMB WAS YOUR EX-QUEEN THAT SHE ACTUALLY TRIED TO REPLACE A STINKING ALICORN!!! You just can't understand how that was a good idea. You start to debate with yourself on how dumb your ex-queen is, when the bride coughs to get your attention. You look at her and you ask her why she saved you.

"The reason why I helped you was so that I can have my revenge on you for almost ruining my wedding, any last words?" She asks you with a threatening tone, as well as her horn sparking with pink magic, and she looks like she is about to break you into tiny pieces. You really don't want to find out how much her magic alone can hurt you, so you decide to answer her question as boldly and confidently as you can muster...

"PLEASE DON'T KILL ME OR LOCK ME AWAY IN A COLD DUNGEON. I'LL DO WHATEVER YOU WANT ME TO DO, JUST PLEASE DON'T MAKE ME WATCH MY LITTLE HUMAN, I'M BEGGING YA PLEASE DON'T!" Yep, that's defiantly a bold and confident response, good going me. You think to yourself. So you close your eyes and wait for your end to come, completely forgetting that you can teleport, when you hear something. It's not the sound magic makes when you shoot it, you've heard that sound plenty of times to know what that sounds like. No, you hear...laughing?

You open your eyes to see...the bride on the ground...laughing like a little school filly. "Is this just some sick joke you play on every changeling you capture cause if it is, then its not funny at all." You tell her in an annoyed voice. After a while she calms down and gets up from off the floor and she looks at you, still giggling, and says "I'm sorry but*giggle*the look on you face was just to much ahhahah!" Your eye twitches in annoyance. 

"Ahahha..ha..*ahem*. Anyway the real reason as to why I helped you is because, well, you saved my life. "Oh, that's why she saved you, it's because you saved her li......*crash*WHATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!! She must have notice your shocked expression, that or she heard your mind break, because she then said " Don't you remember, during the days that I was captured you would come down and give food and water, and you stopped that magical blast from your queen from hitting me. It hit you right in your heart, and I thought you were dead when you didn't get back up." She has tears in her eyes as well as looking at you with sadness.

Suddenly, you get a massive head-ach. You see images, no memories, from before and during the invasion. What the bride said was true. You had given her food secretly when she was caught by your ex-queen. You never got to see what she looked like because you had to give the food to her though a hole in the Crystal Caverns. You also remember taking that magic blast too. Your ex-queen was going to kill the bride when she was still trapped in the caverns before the invasion. Your ex-queen healed you and told you that a unicorn was responsible for shooting you. After awhile your flashback goes away and you see the poor mare is still crying. You have no idea as to what you should do, but you do want to help her badly.

What do you do?
