"Now..." said Chrysalis after she's crawled out from the cave and stand up. "Must go save my kingdom," said Chrysalis and she's begin to walk away. "I will return for all of you!" said Chrysalis. Meanwhile, at Castle of Twilight... "We all feel so ashame!" aaid Cadance. "Why is that?" asked Shining. "I don't expect you to understand but the Changelings are the living beings like us! They have the right to earn freedom!" said Cadance. "Slavery are bad thing, Shiny," said Twilight. "Twilight Sparkle is right," said Luna. "But what can we do? We must respect the answer from the most too," said Applejack. "Sadly that we're no Gods. Then, we can be able to help them now," said Fluttershy. "Wait! That's it! The Olympians said that they're going to help all subjects of Queen Chrysalis!" said Twilight. "And you, me, Luna and Cadance. We're Olympians!" said Celestia. "We four can join the other Gods to help them!" said Twilight. "Shiny, can you be in charge?" asked Twilight. "Did I ever failed you before?" asked Shining. "Alright everypony! Let's go help Queen Chrysalis!" said Twilight and she's fly out with other three Princesses to the top of the mountain of Canterlot. Then, they open the portal and go into Olympus, home of the Gods and Goddesses of the Ponies. "So... what can we do?" asked Rainbow Dash. "How about pray to the Gods? That should help!" said Applejack and everpony grab the necklaces with symbols of their favorite Gods out from their pockets. "To Hera, the Goddess of the Mares and Marriage. I, Rarity beg you to help the subjects of the Changeling Queen, please," said Rarity. "To Zeus, The God of Lightning and Thunder, Lord of all of the Pegasuses. Please help the Changeling Queen in her journey to set free of her kingdom from slavery," said Rainbow Dash. "Demeter, The Goddess of the Earth and Plants. Lady of all Earth Ponies, please help the Changeling Queen and her kingdom, please," said Applejack. Later, in the Everfree Forest... "Almost at its edge..." said Chrysalis and she's keep flying and finally, she's reached the edge of the Everfree Forest. "Now... which way..." said Chrysalis and she's looking around herself. And then, two Cobra Nagas jump out from the bushes nearby and trying to stab her with their swords. Queen Chrysalis quickly fly up and shoot her magic to them. Send them float away to hit the trees. Then, she's walk toward to them. "Now... let's talk! Where is the nearest Naga Colony?" asked Chrysalis. "You're not going to get that information from us! FREAK!" said Naga Cobra. "Fine. Then, I'll just have to put you two inside the goo that I'm going to create and imprisoned you in it for a hungry Hydra that accidentally come in this way and found you two for its breakfast!" said Chrysalis. "Okay! Okay! Okay! We came from that way! That is the nearest colony!" said Naga Cobra as he's point to the hill far in front of him. "Thanks for the help," said Chrysalis and she's fly up in the air and fly toward to the hill. When she's reached the hill, she's starting to remember the way where she came from since nine weeks ago. She's looking around and saw a woods down below on the other side of the hill. After saw it, she's quickly fly up and fly into the woods. At the center of woods, she's found a pond and stop for the water. After finished drinking the water, she's decided to stop flying and go on by her own feet to save her energy from being spend too much from flying. After walk for many kilometers, she had finally reached the land where she once ruled. She's look up and see many differents since she's gone. The very tall and massive statues can be seen around. The left side of the wall behind the castle has been destroyed to expand the city. The expanding part had reached to the harbor and the sea. Then, she's heard something, it's a noise from the whip. She looks down and seeing a Tentacled Arms Naga is hurting a Changeling by whipping him. Can't just stand and do nothing, Queen Chrysalis fly down and grab the Tentacled Arms Naga and throw him to the wall and shoot a beam from her horn to his face, killing him. "M-My Queen!" said Changeling and the other Changelings and the Cat-like Creatures around are stare at her. "Don't fear my subjects, I had returned and I promise to set you all free!" said Chrysalis.
