In the future, Equestria has been overrun by Changelings including the Mane Six who have been converted by Chrysalis. One hero must defend what is left of Ponykind and build a new future.
"Tch, no, I got poked and prodded all the time while I was there," Scarab said. "I was excited to be the first one out of the lab and work for the Princesses. I guess you'll have to do."
"Yeah, that makes me feel so much better," Sea said with a roll of her eyes. "Why do the Changelings even need you and the Driver anyway? It's not like we can do much against Changelings on their own if they actually tried to do something."
"No, but there are always others who will try," Scarab answered. "Shortly after the takeover, the Crystal Empire returned with King Sombra. That was only one threat that the Hive has had to face over the years while Ponykind has lived in relative safety. There will always be those who want to attack Equestria. The Hive Warriors were made to actually protect the Changelings more than anything else."
I ship it.
"Well, you can't exactly expect them to broadcast their intentions," Scarab pointed out. "Changelings aren't always going to just walk up to you and try and steal your Driver you know. You got lucky last time, and I wouldn't expect it to happen regularly. "
I would pay to actually see that happen. And the Changeling dumb enough to try.
"Oh, we'll let you go indeed, as soon as you become one of my soldiers," Prism said with a fanged grin as her horn started to glow and the cocoon formed around Sea. "You know you want it. You've always known deep down that it is your destiny to become one with the Hive."
Sea tried to scream but no sound came out as she was flooded with liquids. The last thing she saw as the cocoon closed up was Prism's smiling face. The Princess blew her a kiss as it closed up and she was encased in the green fluids.
"Come, sister... you know you want this..." the voices echoed around her. "You want to be a Changeling. You want to serve your Princess and to be part of the warmth and love of the Hive."
"No, I don't!" Sea cried out as she tried to break out of the cocoon with her hooves. "I'm not a Changeling, I'll never be a Changeling! I'm not one of you!"
"Oh... but you will be my child, you see... it is already too late," the voices echoed in her mind. "You are already one of us, you just don't know it yet."
Fucking god...
(And nor are you helping Layton in providing shortage of material... Sorry, had to make that given how... disturbing that scene actually is. Fuck you Prism.)
A Unicorn Stallion now stood there in front of the two with a lavender coat and a dark purple mane. He had a cutie mark of a scarab and the familiar shape of the mechanical insect was attached to his neck.
Uh-huh, that's not a unique color scheme or anything. Even if it's a throwaway line, I'm feeling better about my theory that the Magic of the Elements was used in the creation of Scarab and the Hive Drivers after this little thing.
9656757 Really it just goes with his color scheme in insect form but... yeah, that could make sense. I'm not gonna say either way, but its certainly an interesting theory.
