25th April, 18:40 Equestria - Ponyville
"How about a "Pizza Party"? She loves pizza, so let's have a party about it, to cheer her up!" Pinkie suggests to her Twilight, Applejack, Rainbowe Dash, Pinkie Pie and Spike with a smile, as they were in a table outside a Café.
"I don’t think she will be in the mood for a party Pinkie" Twilight said with a frown and Pinkie returns to think.
"How about a..." Rainbow Dash tries to think in something, but gave up "...mmm, Aaahhh, I got nothing!" She drops her head on the table.
After sighing, Twilight speaks "Why did this happen? I don't understand!"
"We are two, Sugarcube" Applejack agreed with her "Now I know why they start being called"Killer Beasts""
"You right, sis. Vigilantes my flank" Dash said, raising her head, resting it on her hoof, with an angry face "If they were vigilantes they wouldn't storm someponie's house and kill everyone. Cheesus, he even kidnapped an innocent mare!"
"I just hope that this poor mare isn't hurt" Fluttershy said "I can't imagine what is to become a hostage of one of these... monsters"
"Don't worry, Fluttershy, I'm sure the police will find her soon and rescue her" Twilight said to her with a smile with a hoof on her shoulder "But now, we need to focus on helping Rarity"
"Yeah, but what we can do to make her feel better after she seeing a bloodbath?" Rainbow Dash asks.
“I don’t know, but we can’t give up” Twilight said and the group nod to each other and returns to think.
"Girls, how about I stay with her for some days?" Spikes tell his idea and the girls look at him confuse. After a sigh, he explains “I know the idea doesn't look much, but I believe that I can help her. I mean, I helped her a lot and the time we pass together I believe it created a...special bond between us" He blush a bit on the last part after saying this, but he clean his throat and continues "Basically, I’m saying that maybe if Sweety Belle and I work together, we maybe can raise Rarity's mood. What you girls think?"
The group thinks about and soon they smile "You know what, Spike? This is a very good idea!" Twilight said
"Really?" Spike asks with a smile
"Of course. Right, girls?" The others soon agreed with her, nodding and praising the idea "Okay, than this is the plan. Tomorrow, Spike will go to..."
"...ANOTHER SAN FRAN" Twilight stops mid sentence when she heard ponies screaming at a distance.
"Did you girls hear that?" She asks her friends.
"Yep, I think is those guys right there" Pinkie points to the march of ponies passing by, Ponies using clothes that would consider them anarchist. The ones in the front were carrying a big banner with "EQUESTRIA PRIDE MARCH" wrote on it and the others in the march were caring posters with things like "Equestria is for Equestrians" or "My Little Pony Hoof Loves Changelings Ass" in it.
"COME ON, EVERYPONY!" The stallion leading the march, one using a hoodie with the hood over his head and a t-shirt with the flag from Equestria in it, screams on a megaphone to the others "NEVER AGAIN... !"
"...ANOTHER SAN FRAN!" The ones in the march scream and repeat as they passed.
"This doens't look good” Twilight said “I think a know what they meant by "free Ponyville from bugs”
"Agreed" Applejack said with a nod "And I don't know you all, but I think we should follow them and make sure that they won't do something extreme" All of them agreed with a nod.
The mares and the baby Dragon followed the protestant Ponies around Ponyville, and so far the anti Changelings seem to just scream and nothing else. Maybe they weren’t going to do something bad, after all "HEY GUYS, LOOK, CHANGELINGS" A mare screams and points to a group of Changelings passing by and the protestants approach at them, but still keeping some distance between them.
"Mommy, I'm scare" A filly Changeling said as she hug her mother.
"Don't worry, sweetie, everything will be fine"
"ATTENTION, CHANGELINGS!" The pony leading the march speaks with them, still using the megaphone "WE, PATRIOTS PONIES FROM EQUESTRIA, DEMAND THAT ALL OF YOU GET THE FUCK OUT OF OUR COUNTRY!" The march screams in agreement.
"Hey, hey, please, calm down!" A male Changeling speak to them "There is no need for violence! Let’s just talk, ok?”
"OHH, PLAYING HARD, THEN?" The pony said and looks at his companions “TIME TO SHOW THEM WE ARE SERIOUS HERE, MY FRIENDS!” The protestant ponies start picking baseball bats, pieces of wood and even chains, giving a killing glare at the Changelings. Some even had a grin in their faces, as they were excited for this moment. As the Changelings could only glare in fear as the Ponies had them cornered, Twilight couldn’t just watch anymore.
"ENOUGH!" She shouts and stands between the Ponies and the Changelings with her friends "I won't allow any of you to hurt them!"
"YEAH" Her friends agreeds with her, much to the annoyance for the leader of the march
"PRINCESS, OUT OF OUR WAY!” He demands with the megaphone “WE'RE DOING THIS BECAUSE WE WANT TO PROTECT OUR COUNTRY! YOUR COUNTRY!"
"NO YOU'RE NOT!" She screams back "How beating innocents Changelings is going to help us? How?!" The stallion was about to answer, but didnh’t had time as she continued "Simple: it won't! Ponyville is already facing bad time with this new wave of violence and while some are trying live as peaceful as possible, here you ALL are creating even MORE pointless violence!” Hearing this made some f the protestants think, some were even dropping their weapons. Maybe this could have a good ending, after all.
"ARE YOU REALLY PRINCESS TWILIGHT SPARKLE?" A stallion screams at her. A fat light blue stallion with blond mane using a black t-shirt and a green flannel shirt on his waist, blocking his Cutie Mark "BECAUSE, AS FAR AS I KNOW, YOU CHICKS CAN JUST BE CHANGELINGS DISGUISED AS THEM!"
"What? I AM prince Twi..."
"COME ONE, MY FELLOW EQUESTRIANS, WE CAN'T LET THINGS LIKE THIS STAND IN OUR WAY!" The fat stallion says to the others "WE ARE DOING THIS TO HELP OUR COUNTRY, AREN'T WE?"
"Yeah!" The protestants said.
"SO, LET'S SHOW TO THIS RUCHELING FUCKER THAT WE ALSO CAN FIGHT!"
"YEAH!!" The others answered with even more determination as the ones who drop their weapons pick them back.
"MY FELLOWS!" The leader of the march looks at the Changelings serious "CHAAARGE!" And so they charge forward, passing by Twilight and her friends and stumping on them.
Twilight’s vision was blurred. She tries to regain her senses and tries stand up. Her vision was starting to get better and she look in horror to what was happening Oh no! She watch in horror as the protestants Ponies massacre the poor Changelings “Twilight” Blood was everywhere, being on the floor or in the protestants clothes “Twilight!” She even saw the fat stallion that screamed at her punching a Changeling on the mouth “TWILIGHT!” She felt a slap on her cheek and she look at Applejack, who was calling for her “We need to do something! They are destroying those Changelings!”
“We… we…” She struggles to speak, felling her body in pain, looking at her friends that were also hurt and full of bruisers. Pinkie was even helping Fluttershy stands and Rainbow Dash had a hurt wing and was on the ground “Maybe we can…” She tries her best to think in something, but the pain in her head wasn't making it easy, but then she manages to think in something “Someponie give to me a pen and a piece of paper, quick!”.
"Here" Pinkie picks her little notebook and pen from her mane and gives to Twilight.
Twilight rips off a page and proceeds to quickly write a quick message, or at least tried since nothing came from the pen “Are you kidding me now?!”
"MOMMY! HELP ME!" A filly Changeling screams in despair, as he was being cornered by a stallion and a mare.
"Don't worry, pal!” Said a stallion with a grin
"Yeah, we send you to where your bitch of a mother is, hahaha!" Said the mare who picks a chain from the ground and starts spinning, making Twilight more desperate and making her try to write the message again and again, always getting the same result. She then felt something running down her forehead. Blood, and she didn't even though twice and used her blood to write the message on her blood, proceeding to give the paper to Spike "Send to Celestia, now!" Spike quickly launches his green flame on the paper, making it disappear in a green fire.
"STOP MOVING, YOU LITTLE SHIT!" The stallion screams as he tries to hold the filly Changeling.
"JUST HOLD HIM STILL!" The mare screams at him impatient.
"GOT IT!" The stallion said as he managed to hold the filly still and mare prepare to hit him, much to Twilight despair.
"NOOOOOOO..."
"ENOOOOOOOOUGHT" Celestia shout with her royal voice, as she appears in the middle of the chaos, scaring and surprising every protestant, who stop what they were doing to stare in fear the princess and distance themselves from her.
“Oh, fuck” The stallion holding the kid said dead nervous, and when the princess stare directly at him, he let go the filly in panic, who runs to behind the princess.
Celestia looks down at the filly with a comfortable smile and ask with a smoth voice “Are you hurt, little one?”
“N-no, miss Cele-lestia” The little girl struggles to speak between sobs “B-but I… I… I want my moooommyyy!” The little Changeling cries again, making the goodness sad for her, but much more angry at the Ponies.
“JINX!” Celestia look at a female Changeling who struggles to get up and looking around while calling a name and “JINX! WHERE ARE YOU!”
“Mommy?” The filly look at the Changeling and her eyes winded “MOMMY!” And runs to her, and when the female Changeling spots the little girl running into her she smiles and open her hoofs.
“JINX!” She hugs the little girl and the two cry in joy for finding one another “I’m here, sweet pie. I’m here” She looks back at Celestia, who was smiling at them “Thank you, your highness”
“I’m glad to help, miss” Celestia said with a gently smile, but return with a serious and angry face when looking back at all the protestants, who were about to run away, but she used her magic and blocked their way with a magic barrier “One of you WILL explain me what in Tartarus is happening here” The princess demands it from the protestants “And I hope you all had a VERY good reason for doing all of this” Everyone sweats nervous “So, someone starts explaining, RIGHT. NOW!” She said the last things in her royal voice, frightening the protestants even more.
"I-I am the resposible of this march, your highness" The stallion with the megaphone approach, bit by bit, from her "We… we only wanted to… help, Ponyville, your highness”
“Help Ponyville, you say” She looks down at him with a serious stare “The, how exactly, is this helpful!”
The stallion swallows hard and was more afraid now “We… we…” Breathing in and out, he manages to gather courage to speak “We only had the objective of kicking out this Changelings from our country, so that we could have less problem with the Ruchelings and...”
"WHAT?!" Celestia shouts in disbelief, not believing what she just heard, and scares the stallion No doubt they are with 41 Blessings "Since you are the responsible for this chaos, YOU will pass a good time in the dungeon for what you’ve done"
“But, princess!” The stallion talked back “We only wanted to...!"
"SILENCE!" She shuts the stallion "Don't disobey me!" She then looks at all the protestants "And if any of you don't wish to join him then I suggest helping this poor Changelings to get to the hospital this instant. Have I being clear?" She didn’t receive an answer "HAVE. I. BEING. CLEAR?!" She asks once more in her royal voice My vocal cords will be torn tomorrow And this time she received a collective of “Yes, princess” from them, and so they start helping the Changelings and Celestia makes her way to Twilight and her friends, who where together and helping each other with their bruisers
"I’m glad you came, Celestia” Twilight said with smile, as she had the help from Rainbow Dash to stand “I don't want to imagine what would have happened if you didn't get here"
"You did the right thing in calling me, Twilight" Celestia said and look back at the ponies helping the Changelings "This kind of mess is too much for you to handle, unfortunately"
"I can see this now, princess" Twilight answered sad and sighs "I couldn’t stop them from doing… all of this" She looks down ashamed, and Celestia, Rainbow Dash and the rest of the group feels sorry for her.
"Don't feel bad, Twilight” She said with a gently voice and Twilight look at her “I'm sure you were able of averting something like this. You just wasn't prepare for this. I'm sure you will be able of taking care of this in future"
"Thanks, Celestia" Twilight said, and then silence followed for a time "You have a solution to this problem, right?" Twilight asked out of nothing, surprising Celestia and even her friends.
“Well, I…” Celestia thought in what to say, if she tells the truth that she didn’t have any idea of what to do or if she lies to make her feel better. She remembered what Force Law told her and the idea of solution he had in mind, that she didn’t like it a bit. She also remembered that he said that her subjects would try to do something themselves about this situation if she didn’t acted quick, and the genocide from tonight is a prime example of what he was talking about Maybe his is right about what must be done… but, I still don’t like it She then remembered what "It" said to her and now she was thinking if all of this was the sign it was talking about "Well, in a way you can say I have” She finally answered the little Alicorn said with a small smile “But, at the moment I'm more worry about you and your friends" Twilight look at herself and then at her friends and how hurt they were "Please, go with your friends to a hospital and heal those wounds, okay?"
"Yeah, you right" Twilight said with a nod and goes to the hospital with her friends, having Rainbow Dash helping her to trot "Good night, Celestia"
"Goodnight, Twilight" She said and then stops smiling, looking directly at the Moon and unsure about the future.
