//------------------------------// // Chapter 2 // Story: The Changeling Princess // by Hades //------------------------------// Canterlot castle: 2 hours before the wedding Chrysalis and Amazia were waiting at Cadance's room for one of their scouts to report to them the current location of Princess Celestia and Princess Luna, the capital has been on high alert ever since a changeling squad got discovered near the capital while they were scouting for guard patrols, Chrysalis made a mental note to punish them after the invasion, because of their stupidity there was now a giant shield over capital although it was a minor anoyance, since she had control of Shining Armor's mind, it was still a problem and as if that wasn't enough Shining Armor's sister came to the wedding she was getting suspicious so she had to teleport her to the mines. Three knocks were heard from the other side of the door before a royal guard entered he bowed and said "Your majesties I came to report about the current location of the royal sisters " he said then rose from his bow "Princess Celestia is at the altar dealing with last minute details, Princess Luna is at her room preparing for the wedding " he finished "You did good, now return to your post " said Chrysalis, the disguised guard bowed and then left the room "Amazia now is the time for the 3rd phase of the plan, you know what to do " said Chrysalis to her daughter "Yes mother, I won't fail you " said Amazia before leaving the room. Amazia disguised as Moongazer knocked on the door of the night princess' chamber,"Hello Moongazer, do want something ?" said Luna when she opened the door "Greetings your highness, miss Twilight Sparkle wishes to speak to you at her chambers " said Amazia "I hope it isn't again about Cadance being an imposter or something crazy like that" Luna sighed before continuing "Lead the way Moongazer " Amazia nodded and asked the princess to follow her. "She is waitting for you inside your highness " said Amazia before opening the door "Thank you " said Luna before she entered the room but there was nopony in there, she heard the door behind her closed and then locked "What is the meaning of this " she said before trying to use a spell to blow open the door but she couldn't her magic was supressed "This isn't good "she muttered to herself "Do you think the wards will be strong enough to supress her magic ?" asked Butterfly changing back to her changeling form,since Butterfly was a changeling medic she was different from the warriors, her eyes and back chitin which were blue for the warriors was red for her and her curved horn instead of pointing upwards pointed downwards "Yes they will be enough, but my mother asked us to keep and eye on her incase anypony tried to open the door from the outside" said Amazia"Come on " she said pointing at a nearby window "The show is about to start " she said before both of them walked to the window and looked outside, they saw the changelings were already breaking the shield around the city, once the shield broke the changelings started hunting down the ponies and trapping them so they will feed on them later,some time passed before Butterfly saw something "Look Amazia it is the element bearers they are are being escorted back to the altar,wait a minute is that Twilight Sparke?How did dhe escape from the mines ?" Amazia froze when she heard that, 'if Twilight escaped then that means ' she thought before she run off to warn her mother "Amazia where are you going " asked Butterfly "I need to warn my mother, you stay here and make sure nopony will help Luna " she said before she jumped off a broken window and started flying towards the altar where her mother was praying that she she will reach there in time Once she finally reached the doors of the wedding room, she opened them and saw Cadance and Shining Armor casting a spell, she tried to warn her mother, but before she could say anything Cadance an Shining finished their spell and cast it, the spell hit her,her mother and the rest of the Hive out of Canterlot. They were all thrown back to the badlands,before she could do anything she hit the ground and lost her conciosness
