I have to finish in order. isn’t it a nature peice, I should take a walk to get a inspiration. Then she left the safety of her house never to return.         Eclipse smiled as she slithered around her castle. Now all I need is Pinkie pie and all my friends will be perfect. As Eclipse moved around she noticed a twinge of pain as she moved around. I wonder what that could be. She soon found out that it was one of the marks in the cave. It must be an alarm. Eclipse then opened a viewing portal to watch the show.         Rarity's walk took her to the Everfree. On her way in, there was a flash of dark green light in the distance. As the dark light of the cavern drawn her into the cave. She was incaptivated by the mirror in the middle. The design on the ridges was so elegant. As Rarity moved closer, she started checking herself out. The mirror made her even more beautiful. Her mane was in new style. And her fur was a shining red. As Rarity moved closer to the mirror. Her sides started to ache. When her hoof touched the mirror it cracked at the same time as 4 hooves jetted out from side. It was okay though. It was the price to pay for being beautiful. When her hoof touched the mirror. It shattered as Rarity screamed in pain. Her skin became a dark red. Extra eyes forced their way from her skull. Her tail fell off as a sack formed on her back. The more her body changed, the less painful the change became until it became a pleasurable experience. “So, how do you feel?” Eclipse asked in the most innocent voice she could muster. “I feel…” The Arachne couldn’t finish her sentence. She was hideous. Or was she. The more she thought about it. The more beautiful she felt. “Beautiful.” With that, Rarity was no more. Her jaw opened up and became four separate parts. She also gained eyes of shadow. Her element twisted into the element of Vanity. Archnea was born. “Wonderful, now go tell Claw to convert all of the farmers and Ash to improve the weather team and Scootaloo,” as Eclipse said this. Liquid shadow rushed out of her scales leaving a dark trail wherever she went. “As for me, I am going to take a trip.” “Yes me queen,” Archnea said as she went off. When she was gone Eclipse laughed and teleported to canterlot.
