did you just give it wings??? wtf it killed 200+ pony dose that not mean shit?
I didn't expected Shendu to be transformed. Still, I wonder why Celestia decided to take that course of action.
Can't wait to see how this marvelous plan blows up in Celestia's face.
I originally thought it was soul eating monster that can mimic the voice of their prey, turn out it was a monster child that are pretty much do what most animal do. Survive.
I don't know whether I should hate Maiden or not. She eaten a lot victims yet she do it because pony are easy prey considering most animal with big meat are predator that are harmful to her.
We will see how Celestia plan this out.
6539497 I was really hoping someone would get the reference.
Thank you my friend.
This is more than a little disturbing. It enters a very heavily moral grey area of whether it's right or allowable to change someone like this. To some, this could be characterized as torture through the destruction and attack on someone's identity and being. To some, death would be preferable. I also understand why Wrath would be the most horrified because this acts as a direct threat to him as well. The implication could easily be taken as "if I don't like what you're doing, Wrath, I'll turn you into a pony."

I think Celestia is planning on getting revenge.
Killing Shendu will not bring back everypony it has killed.
No, I am under the impression Celestia is going to do far worse. She will make Shendu a pony, properly, and get it to realize the gravity of what it has done, and suffer the guilt for its crimes while being stuck as a pony for the rest of its life.
Guilt that it does not feel at the moment. It doesn't even conceive it did anything wrong, just nature of kill and eat or be killed. As was said, even Nightmare Moon had more awareness and motive than that.
As for Wrath, Wrath defaulted to trying to kill Shendu even when Shendu was at Celestia's mercy, just to remove it from the world, as that is as far as Wrath thought about it. Wrath's opinions are outdated, and very stark in contrast. If something is a threat, it dies, no middle ground. Celestia will get Wrath to interact with pony-Shendu and show that Shendu one day could do good, and that had Wrath killed Shendu that that would have never been possible. That all life has a chance at redemption.
Well, either that or also ponify Wrath. I'm sorta wondering if that will happen, after all Wrath is very dangerous himself and has killed many people and ponies before, and they don't really need a killer guard. Plus it's questionable if Wrath has ever really lived before. That is, if he ever enjoyed life, or has only known killing himself.
I bet the creature became a pony and got their wings.
Just... Just gonna NOPE my way away from the Maiden, yeah... Bye.
was a monster, now a....Pegasus??...*blinks* more please!!
Ohhhohohoho... YES! Soon I will return and all will BURN! Hehehehehehe
6539641 Can a being that has no concept of right and wrong even be guilty of something?
Celestia doesn't really strike me as the vengeful type; the ponies do tend to like redeeming baddies. Forced transformation is getting into a pretty morally-grey area, though I suppose if it can be undone then it could be considered containment, while they teach it the error of its ways...

Transformation is not morally grey in this scenario. Shendu is only a few days old, it's its nature to do what it did. It has no concept of right or wrong, and is pretty much being driven by instincts. So, remove the form that supplies those instincts (transformation), and reformation is possible. Changing Shendu back later would be cruel and unusual punishment, once it got used to being a pony and made friends.
Celestia wants it to feel guilt retroactively, to denounce what it did, of its own free will. Even if the act won't bring back the dead, it will show that just plain killing isn't an answer in every circumstance, to Wrath anyway. And there is always the chance that Shendu might actually be a worthy pony in the end.
6539707 if that is true im noping the hell out
Kill it. Make wrath stronger and then kill it. It is a useless abomination...
Whether not weather
The Maiden sounds like it belongs in either Dead Space or Resistance! (Btw I'm well aware that their is a creature called a Maiden in one of the Resistance games)
ThÃs feel like an attempt at poetic justice for some reason...Unsual punishment category. Not really cruel, persay.
more painful than before.
Forced transformation. Poor poor maiden creature.
Now I want to see how this works out. But who will raise Shendu?
6540029 Same here. I'm not terribly in favor or saving something that killed over 200 ponies because it was hungry as-is.
6540560
Thank you.
6539598 Definately worse than death. Unwilling transformation and memory altercation are without a doubt the darkest, most vile concepts in the fandom. It might not have much on some of the 40k stuff I'm used to, but it's still pretty bad.
6541812 Memory altercation?
6541897 not in this story, it's just another common thing in the fandom.
It often goes hand in hand with the transformation thing. Personality rewriting and all that stuff.

Some of the stories that imply this is actually what happened to Luna can be interesting. I don't remember any off hand but it is an interesting question to ask.
Yea, that's not right. Generally speaking, meat eaters don't kill for fun. Nature has a wonderful system of 'Waste not, Want not' where everything gets used to its fullest ability, and random killing doesn't benefit those that do it.
Also, tail not tale. (Flutters perspective)
6542170 I know what you are referring to. I've seen a few examples.
6542711 On earth yes, that is the natural order of things. But for one this is not earth, it is Equis. And let us take a look at a 'powerful carnivore' in the mlp fim series itself. Dragons. They actively sought out and crushed phoenix eggs on a whim, yet had no intention of eating them. Your statement is not without merit however, but Luna does not mean the common carnivore when saying 'powerful, meat eating species', a common snake for example, while being carnivorous, does not fall into her category of powerful, whereas a creature such as a dragon would.
Does that make sense?
6547555 Jerk equals power, got it.
I guess I just prefer the natural order of life to teenagers trying to do something 'cool'.
6548858 There is more to it than just that, in my story at least. It will make sense in time, trust me.
Can't say I agree with forcibly changing a predators species rather than just killing it. It would be one thing if Celestia gave the choice "transform to a non-predator or be killed", but she didn't. Leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
In this chapter we learned the origins of TCB.
6642819 God damn it. You're a horrible person. I love it!
"It's....hard to explain. The creature would easily kill you should it hunger. But it would not out of annoyance. Unless it hungers or necessity demands it, it does not kill. Which is abnormal for powerful, meat eating species; which typically will kill anything weaker than themselves on a whim. " Luna takes a pull from her tea.
Incorrect. It is the exact OPPOSITE. Predators (unless unwell in some fashion) generally do not kill on a whim. There is too much risk of injury and handicap, even in killing something smaller and weaker, for them to be going about killing simply for casual amusement.
okay, this story is already failing. Celestia may have a forgiving nature but no way in hell does that extend to a creature that RUNS ON EVIL AND EATS WOMEN AND CHILDREN. "naive newborn" or not. And that whole "becoming a pony makes you a better person" crap stinks to high heaven of the Conversion Bureau.
6555399 She lets a thing that runs on evil and kills and eats ponies by preference live, and your problem is that she coerced it?
6547555 Enternal, the dragon's behavior was not that of a predator, it was that of INTELLIGENT beings-- teenagers being JERKS. If that's what she meant, that's what she should have SAID.
BAD. WRITING.
Celestia, cmon, you know that Wrath will immediately kill this pony
i thought shendu would become human, but then again my mind is weird like that.
Celestia stop be so fucking mysterious and secretive
SHENU IS BEST PONY.
I just came back from my break from this story and already I need another one, fuck you Celestia for making me put this story on hold
....oh wow, didint see that coming.
What bullshit! Sparing a monstours eating creatures life. Passive brony bullshit! Fuck all of you.
How did they teleport wrath to the hospital when it is stated around chapter 1 that he cant be teleported
9086889
Imho, fitting punishment.
"Now you're one of your food"
9604215
Well you are what you eat
Let's hope that the instincts don't carry over
