Chapter 2
"Twi, we're sorry-" Shining Armor began, only to be cut off.
"Sorry?" the mare in question asked. "Sorry?! I don't care about your apologies! I will never forgive you or the girls and Celestia."
"Twilight, we should've listened to yah, but please forgive us," Applejack pleaded.
"I will never forgive any of you!" Twilight shouted. "Look what you did!" Her horn glowed as she cast a spell, letting all of Equestria see what had happened each time she told them about how strange Cadance was acting.
"Bet I can guess what you're all thinking. Cadance is the absolute worst bride-to-be ever," said Twilight as she sipped her milkshake.
Spike was playing with the dolls for the cake and asked in a high pitched voice, "Who, me?"
Applejack said, "Spike! That goes on the cake."
Rarity asked, "Twilight, whatever are you talking about? Cadance is an absolute gem!"
"Rarity, she was so demanding!" Twilight exclaimed.
"Well, of course she is! Why shouldn't she expect the very best on her wedding day?" asked Rarity.
Twilight turned to Applejack and asked, "Applejack, did you know that after she told you how much she just 'love-love-loved' your hors d'ouvres, she threw them in the trash?"
The farmpony said, "Aw, she was probably just trying to spare my feelin's."
"No, she was just being fake and totally insincere!"
Fluttershy quietly said, "She did raise her voice at one of my birds during rehearsal."
"See? Rude!"
"But he was singing really off-key," Fluttershy said as the bird began singing off key, making Twilight cover her ears with her hooves.
She turned to the party mare and began, "Pinkie Pie, you had to have noticed how Cadance treated–" She stopped mid sentence and said, "Never mind. Rainbow Dash, you're with me, right?"
Rainbow rubbed her hooves and stretched her wings as she said, "Sorry, Twi. Been too busy prepping for my sonic rainboom to pay much attention to the bride's bad attitude."
"The princess is about to get married. I'm sure any negative behavior she might be displaying is simply the result of nerves," Rarity said as Twilight began growling.
"And I'm sure it's the result of being an awful pony who doesn't deserve to even know Shining Armor, let alone marry him!" the unicorn said angrily.
"Think maybe you're bein' just a tiny bit possessive of your brother?" asked Applejack.
"Uh-huh," agreed the rest of the mane six.
Twilight shouted, "I am not being possessive, and I am not taking it out on Cadance! You're all just too caught up in your wedding planning to notice that maybe there shouldn't even be a wedding!"
Twilight ran and said, "Shining Armor's in real trouble! You have to help–" She stopped half way upon seeing her friends. "Dresses? What are you–?"
"Can you believe it?" asked Fluttershy happily. "We're gonna be Princess Mi Amore Cadenza's new bridesmaids!"
Twilight raised an eyebrow as she asked, "New bridesmaids? What happened to her old bridesmaids?"
Applejack explained, "She didn't say. But she did tell us that she would love-love-love it if we'd fill in for them."
"Seeing as we've been working so hard and everything," added Rarity.
"And you had your doubts about her."
"Told you she was an absolute gem!"
Rainbow Dash asked, "You sure this is what I should wear? Doesn't seem all that aerodynamic."
Rarity said, "Hmm. I'll see what I can do."
As her friends walked away, Twilight said, "Looks like I really am on my own."
"I'm here! I'm not gonna stand next to her! And neither should you!" said Twilight.
Shining said, "I'm sorry, I... I don't know why she's acting like this."
Cadance coldly said, "Maybe we should just ignore her."
Twilight shouted, "You have to listen to me!"
"Oh, goodness! Are you okay?" Fluttershy asked in concern.
"I'm fine," she snarled.
Applejack asked, "Ya sure about that?"
Twilight used her magic to cover Applejack's face with her hat. "I've got something to say! She's evil!" she said, pointing an accusing hoof towards Cadance, whom Shining quickly stepped in front of.
Twilight teleported behind Cadance and said, "She's been horrible to my friends, she's obviously done something to her bridesmaids," Cadance's eyes went wide in fear as Twilight began cornering her, "and if that wasn't enough, I saw her put a spell on my brother that made his eyes go all like this!"
"Why are you doing this to me?!" cried Cadance as Twilight advanced on her.
"Because you're evil!" Cadance ran, and as she teleported behind Cadance, who was still crying. "Evil! And if I don't stop you, you're gonna ruin my brother's life!"
She ran back into the throne room, pleased with what she had done, only to fall as she ran into a very angry Shining Armor. He glared at her, and said, "You want to know why my eyes went all like that? Because ever since I started having to perform my protection spell, I've been getting terrible migraines. Cadance hasn't been casting spells on me. She's been using her magic to heal me! And she decided to replace her bridesmaids because she found out the only reason they wanted to be in the wedding was so that they could meet Canterlot royalty! And if she hasn't been on her best behavior with your" he stomped his hoof on the floor "friends, it's because with me being so busy, she's had to make all the decisions about the wedding!"
"I was just trying to–"
"She's been completely stressed out because it's really important to her that our big day be perfect! Something that obviously wasn't important to you!" Shining Armor said harshly. "Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go and comfort my bride. And you can forget about being my best mare. In fact, if I were you, I wouldn't show up to the wedding at all."
"C'mon, y'all. Let's go check on the princess," Applejack suggested, and the mane five walked out the doors.
"I was-" Twilight began to say, only to stop.
Princess Celestia walked past the mare as she said, "You have a lot to think about."
"See?" Twilight yelled as she stopped the spell. "Every single mother bucking time I tried to tell you, you all acted like that! You never believe me unless you can see the threat with your own eyes! And I don't need friends or family like that! Goodbye forever!"
"Also, remember that all of Equestria saw this!" Not giving the stunned ponies a chance to say a word, Twilight stomped out of the castle. Spike ran after her, calling her name. "What do you want?" she asked, glaring at him.
Scared by Twilight's harsh tone, Spike gulped, "Twilight, I wanted to say that I'm sorry. I was afraid of getting kicked out of the wedding... Could you forgive me?" he asked, kneeling in front of Twilight.
She looked at him for a few minutes, weighing her options. Spike is like a brother to me... And he could help... "Fine. I'll forgive you." He rose and she said, "Sit on my back. We're leaving."
Spike did as she said, and asked, "Where are we going Twilight?"
"There's this place called The Crystal Empire that I learnt about..."

This is really good so far if it gets finished I will probably put it in my favorites.
11166883
Thanks! And this is going to be a long ride...
This is good. I'm glad Twilight forgive Spike.
11167040
Thanks!
Twilight: Spike's a much better brother than Shining Armor could ever be. Of course I would forgive him!
You are bringing the bad memory about this site in 7-8 years ago.
11167054
What bad memory?
11167051
You're welcome. I'm glad Spike get another chance.
11167062
The memory when everyone rewrite this episode. I don't want tp remember it.
11167075
Oh. This isn't a rewrite. It's gonna be much more. Twibra, maybe murders of two princesses, and meeting some foals.
It's going to be a long ride.
Since T.W. mentioned that the images she displayed has now been shown to the rest of Equestria, will this mean they'll be an angry flash mob waiting for the others outside the castle?
11167081
You're very welcome.
11167080
*Go out the story immidiately when hearing that* say like this but do another. How nice!
11167083
I think there will. (Why didn't I think of that?!)
Kind of wonder what she thinks of Luna at the moment?
11167144
She doesn't blame Luna for anything, since Luna never did anything to her.
this is going to be good
11167171
I'm glad you're enjoying it.
Will Luna, Twilight's/Shining's parents, and even the real Cadence be pissed off at Celestia, Shining Armor, and the Mane Five?
11167083
Probably. Considering if the leader of country had the head of the enemy pretending to their family under nose and they put everything ahead of noticing that something was wrong they would have a lot of explaining to do.
11167415
Agreed.
Not to mentioned that she has unintentionally turn Twilight over to the Dark Side.
11167091
Fair enough.
11167415
Hands down.
11167254
10 to 1 said YES.
I haven't read this yet--but currently reading it now, but I have to ask: How is this in the Spike's Harems group??? Unless there are some future surprises (no spoilers, please
),, it seem that it not in the correct place...
11167580
I think somehow you got the wrong story. This au on the wedding episode.
11167602
I don't think that's the case. I also got the notification that this story was added to the "Spike's Harems" group, despite the fact that the premise does not seem to involve Spike with any harem whatsoever, even if I haven't read it.
11167668
Must have been a glitch somewhere because this au for the wedding episode. Report it to the site and try to find your story.
11167672
I checked the folder it was supposedly in under Spike's Harems, and it's right there. I've already reported it as a misplaced story in the wrong group.
P.S.: If anyone else is reading this, I swear this is NOT an attack. There's just been a mistake with grouping this story.
11167254
They will be very angry indeed.
11167580
I'll tell you there's going to be some surprises later on.
11167668
11167580
11167668
11167672
11167685
Everypony! It's supposed to be in the Spike's harem group! You'll find out later on in the story why.
11167685
For me, this story was placed in the correct group: Canterlot Wedding Blues. Whoever put it in the Spike Harem's group did not even read the story and thought that it was for the Spike Harem's group.
11167729
It's supposed to be in the Spike's harem group. Could you tell me who added it there?
11167730
It is me.
11167740
Ok.
11167729
Chazkopa said he added it, and he was the one who requested this story. So it's in the correct group.
11167746
Ok, sorry. I thought since nothing in the description mentioned anything about a Spike harem, it shouldn't be in the group.
To avoid confusion, you could try subtly mentioning Spike's impending relationships with the Mane 6 or whoever will be in his harem in the description (without spoilers), instead of just relying on the content, so other users won't feel obligated to read the story through to confirm that it's a harem fic.
This is just a suggestion. It's up to you to decide whether to use it.
11167746
Okay.
11167799
Ok.
I can see that when Luna finds out, she'll be furious with the mane 5, her sister, and Shining Armor. I can picture her turning back into Nightmare Moon and joining Twilight and Spike.
(By the way, my Avatar photo is of a drawing I did myself of what Twilight would look like if she was possessed by Nightmare. Her name is Nightmare Nova.)
*After reading all the commotion
So, Spike does get a Harem out of this?
11168472
He does. You'll see.
11168388
She sure will! Luna turning into Nightmare Moon, huh? Not a bad idea...
And your drawing looks great!
11168736
Seriously, who? I know it's definitely not the Mane Five or even Rarity, due to obvious reasons. And Twilight will probably be with Sombra. And definitely NOT Chrysalis, for the same thing.
And since this is still a early season. Ember, Smolder, Gabby, etc. Don't show up yet. Maybe Luna/Nightmare Moon, and Gilda?
Ohhhh wow! This is really good! The Canterlot Wedding was the one episode that has so many alternatives fans could have create. Reading this and other stories of Twilight accepting the harsh reality check is truly amazing. Hope to see more updates on this great project.
11168804
It's... It's *warning big spoiler ahead* I'll PM the answer to you.
11168865
Thanks! I'm flattered. I'll be updating this weekly, that's if my teachers don't overload me with tests.
11167155
What will happen with her?
11169207
Maybe she'll take over Equestria and bring eternal night. Only time will tell.
11169226
Well for one, I doubt Celestia and the others will just let Luna do that, for the third time. And second, an Eternal Night is literally a very bad thing for the entire world, right? ( And I'm just ignoring the Nightmare Moon Timeline in Season 5. )
11169297
Yeah, it is a bad thing. No sunlight means that plants wouldn't grow, and ponies would get hungrier as the days pass. Soon they will start killing each other, fighting for the smallest scraps of food. And then they will bring extinction upon themselves.
That's why I said that only time would tell.
