You know, all other considerations aside, offering Chrysalis pity after that defeat was never going to work for Starlight.

The pride of Chrysalis is fundamental to her nature, you might as well ask her to cut away her wings. She'd probably prefer to lose her wings over her caustic dignity.
This just makes me think of Chrysalis laying down to sleep for the night with dark thoughts circling her mind...
Chrysalis: Ever on and on I continue circling with nothing but my hate in a carousel of agony... 'till slowly I forget, and my heart starts vanishing and suddenly I see that I can't break free. I'm slipping through the cracks of dark eternity with nothing but the pain and the paralyzing agony to tell me who I am, who I was... Uncertainty enveloping my mind 'till I can't break free and... Maybe it's a dream. Maybe nothing else is real. But it wouldn't mean a thing, if I told you how I feel. So I'm tired of all the pain, all the misery inside. And I wish that I could live feeling nothing but the night. You can tell me what to say. You can tell me where to go. But I doubt that I would care, and my heart would never know. If I make another move, there'll no more turning back. Because everything will change, and it all will fade to black...
Will tomorrow ever come?
Will I make it through the night?
Will there ever be a place
for the broken in the light?
Am I hurting; Am I sad?
Should I stay or should I go?
I've forgotten how to tell...
Did I ever even know?
Can I take another step?
I've done everything I can.
All the ponies that I see...
I will never understand.
If I find a way to change.
If I step into the light.
Then I'll never be the same.
And it all will fade to white...

But... Her eyes aren't blue?
10270683
Humph, you know what I meant. And if we're being technical her eyes can be any color she likes.
But honestly, aside from that the song does suit her rather well, no? Though not, I admit, so well as your own piece. That was a fine bit there, did you really come up with it on the spot? Most impressive.

You might want to try clicking the link I had?
10270852
Ah, there was a link. I'd honestly missed that, I took it for a bit of artistic fun with colored text.
Hmm, a haunting tune, but I don't really hear Chrysalis in it, you know? There's none of that seething pride/hate/possessiveness that so typifies her. What that really sounded like to me was Cozy Glow, a maddened girl with just enough self-awareness to know that her path cannot end well.

So you'd prefer this better then:
Random Grub: Papa 'Torax, why is old Chrissy wearing white and black face paint?
Thorax: We don't talk about her Metal moods.
Have to give her credit for her poker face here.

Dude, that rocked. Yeah I did prefer that one.
And now I have the image of Chrysalis and Nightmare Moon touring as some sort of metal duo. Odd that.
It seems word is traveling very fast here.
I mean, she was defeated merely hours (?) ago, and yet the news had already spread to the remote corners of Equestria.
(Unless it were more than hours. Maybe Chrysalis flew for a few days?)
Well done. A nice look into the immediate aftermath of a villain's escape. I like the way you set up her Shutterbug disguise from The Mean Six episode here.
Some parts almost sort of reminded me of this story a little. I should reread that one sometime, it's one of the small number (especially compared to the number in my Finished folder) of stories on here I actually put in my faves folder here.
