“This way, Chrysalis,” Twilight said urging the Changeling Queen forward. Their hooves trotted calmly down the halls of the Crystal Palace, earning many confused glances from the guards that also moved the halls. They weren’t going the same direction as the Changeling and Alicorn though.

“I still don’t understand why you needed to bring me here, Twilight,” Chrysalis said with a confused tone.

“Trust me,” Twilight replied, “this is of vital importance to the survival of everyone. You remember the Palace Hospital, right?”

“Of course, there were numerous Crystal Guards in there unconscious but I still don’t see how that pertains to you herding me down the hallways,” Chrysalis said before being stopped be a purple hoof.

Before she could ask why they had stopped, a small group of stretcher bearers rushed by, more unconscious guards laying on top of said stretchers. once they had rushed by, Twilight moved her hoof and thus continued to lead them down the halls. It was beginning to worry Chrysalis, since it somehow involved her. Had one of her guards gone rogue and began attacking ponies?

No, she could feel each one of them and could personally account for all of her guards. Perhaps it was all a ruse? Some form of way to lull her into a false sense of security before springing a devious trap on her! Of course she quickly dismissed such an idea, as that would break all the treaties that they had worked so hard for. Chrysalis only wished she had some insight into what was happening.

“Shining!” Twilight called out, moving a bit faster to embrace her brother who had … glowing ears? That made little sense, and only brought up more questions as the group of guards around him also had glowing ears.

“Twily, I’m glad you could get her here so quickly,” he said giving a small smile to the Changeling Queen.

“How’s the situation?” Twilight asked sternly.

“Not good, we are running out of guards and the deafening spells on work until a certain distance,” Shining said while pointing to another guard that had been pulled out of the room that they were blocking. “We can’t get close enough to end this madness.”

“Wait, what madness?” Chrysalis asked, looking at both of them.

“Should we show her? If she falls then all might just be lost!” Shining exclaimed.

“We have no choice, Shiny. Besides, I trust Chrysalis, if anyone could do this then she could,” Twilight replied with a smile aimed at Chrysalis.

“Alright, Chrysalis let us show you,” Shining said. At first she wondered why she didn’t get this deafening spell that they mentioned but Shining quickly answered her unasked question. “As long as you don’t breach the room you won’t need the spell. Now go, see for yourself.”

The guards around the door parted just enough to let the Queen through, and the moment she could see and hear what was inside, she immediately regretted it.

“Oh, Chrysalis! My lady wood is just begging to take you right now!” Cadance said, mocking Twilight’s voice, while dancing her doll of Twilight back and forth.

“Hehe, not here, my love! What would your brother and sister say?!” The fake Chrysalis doll replied while slowly getting closer to Twilight.

“We could ask them to join!” The mock Twilight doll said.

“Ooooh, I do like your thinking, love! Why don’t we go get them!” Doll Chrysalis said eagerly.

“No need, you sexy Changeling,” a fake doll of Shining Armor and Cadance danced into the scene. “We’ve been waiting for the invitation.”

“Why don’t we all go back to the Royal Chambers,” doll Cadance purred, “and continue this?”

At that moment, Chrysalis scurried back from the door, running the way that she and Twilight had originally came from. Her screams of ‘nope!’ echoed through the hall, never reaching Cadance who continued to act out lewd and crazy scenes in her room. The few guards that had been looking in had passed out despite the deafening spells, while Shining Armor called for a hasty retreat
