Nibbles; spawn of darkness and potentially the greatest threat to Equestria. In his incredibly short life he had already managed to kill not one, but two gods. Though in his defense one of them thought it would quite easy to steal candy from a foal, he was wrong.
This hybrid of darkness and Changeling would one day grow up to be Prince of the Changeling Empire and eventually it's King, he'd lead the Changeling race into a golden era the likes of which had never been see before. However, that was far in the future, at the moment our little friend had a problem.
Nibbles wasn't sure when the strange object had decided to attack, but it had latched onto his head and no matter how much he growled or screeched it refused to leave him be.
"Gah!" Nibbles cried again as he stumbled through the hall bumping from wall to wall as he attempted to remove the object from his head. Unbeknownst to the little hybrid he was rapidly making his approach on two members of the Solar guard stationed outside one of the many rooms housing foreign ambassadors. With another sudden crash, Nibbles was knocked onto his flank.
"Wow there little guy, where are you heading?" spoke an unfamiliar voice
"Blarg!" hissed the hybrid in response doing his best to look menacing, the bucket making his attempts completely pointless
"You stuck in there?" asked a second voice.
"Gaa!"
"Well hold on, we'll get you out." spoke the first voice once again.
Nibbles hadn't fully grasped the Equestrian Language and was quite sure what the creatures outside were talking about. However he quickly found that thought pushed to the back of his almost feral mind as he felt himself lifted off the ground.
"Hammer what are you doing?" asked the second voice "You're going to hurt the kid."
"Don't worry Brass" answered the first "I had this happen to me all the time as a foal."
"I don't even want to know." Brass stated with a sigh
After a few more seconds of floating and frantic squirming the object eventually released its grip on Nibbles's head and the hybrid dropped to the ground below, barely managing to land on all fours.
"Gar!" he hissed in joy
The two guards were stunned by the foals appearance, they had assumed the garbled sounds coming from beneath the bucket were a result of it muffling the foals voice. However they had never expected the creatures appearance to be so strange, though there had been rumors floating around the castle of a strange creature moving through the shadows. Those rumors were also accompanied by other rumors that Discord had once again been sent down to the guards medical barracks for treatment of "War grade" wounds.
"Is it okay?" Hammer nervously asked "You don't think the bucket did any brain damage do you?"
"Bu- buck- bucket?" Nibbles stuttered as he tried to copy the words just spoken "Bucket?" he repeated as he pointed towards the object that had once encased his head.
"Yes" Brass answered "That's the bucket that was on your head, are you okay?"
Nibbles nodded slowly as he shifted his gaze back from the guard to the bucket and eventually to the guards head.
"Bucket!" Nibbles shouted in a mixture of excitement and fear as he pointed towards the guard.
"No, I'm not a bucket, that's the bucket." Brass finished as he pointed towards the Hammer who was now attempting to place the bucket on his own.
"Bucket!" Nibbles repeated in terror as he pointed towards the guards head.
It took the guards several seconds of thought to realize what the foal was shouting about and his suspicions were confirmed as he removed his helmet and a look of relief began to appear on the foals face.
"This isn't a bucket." he began "It's a helmet, it keeps my head safe."
"Hel- helmet" Nibbled struggled to repeat.
"Yes, it's what guards were to keep their head safe"
Nibbles stared for a few seconds as his mind continued to process the guards words, if the helmet kept that ponies head safe, maybe his helmet would too.
"Helmet!" Nibbles repeated excitedly as he pointed towards the bucket now firmly placed a top Hammer's head.
Brass face hoofed, not because of the foals belief that the bucket was a helmet, but that he was stationed with a pony who now had his head stuck in a bucket.
"Kid, that's a bucket, you put water in it." he answered as he carelessly ripped the bucket from his comrades head, leaving a slightly stunned and confused look on Hammer's face.
"Helmet!" Nibbles repeated as he jumped at the bucket now held by Brass
"Bucket" Brass repeated
"Helmet!" snarled Nibbles as he jumped again.
"Bucket"
"Helmet!" Nibbles hissed once more, this time several large shadow like arms emerged from beneath his shell and in one quick movement plucked the bucket from the guards hoof, and gently placed it down in front of the Hybrid creature. Brass stood in slight horror at what he had just witnessed, but eventually the reality that what he had just seen, was probably not the weirdest thing that would happen on this day set in, and he shook it off.
"Kid, I'm telling you, that buckets not going to help." Brass stated once again, but his words fell on deaf ears as the foal had already placed the bucket back a top his head.
"Helmet!" he gleefully hissed as he ran into another wall.
Both Brass and Hammer gave a facehoof.
"Kid, if you're going to run around with a buc- a helmet on your head, you're going to need eye holes." Brass stated as he pulled the bucket from Nibbles's head once again prompting the creature to his and bare its fangs. However, it quickly turned into a chase as the much smaller creature tried to keep up with the guard who was now making his own way through the halls as he returned to the barracks. Leaving Hammer both confused and on his own.
Brass quickly made his way over to his personal chest as he began to scavenge through it. Nibbles wasn't sure what the pony was doing with his helmet and he was beginning to grow worried by the sounds emanating from the chest. After several failed jumps to see what was happening in the much larger chest he decided to wait.
After several seconds Brass pulled the bucket out from inside the chest, two newly made eyes holes cut along with a hole for the foals horn.
"There you go, now you can look ridiculous but still see." The Pegasus stated with a light grin as he placed the "helmet" back on the foals head.
"Gah!" it hissed in joy.
"Now kid, if you don't mind I've got to get back to my post." Brass stated as he exited the room and began his trek back to his station, hoping that neither of the Princesses or any of the ambassadors had passed by during his absence.
"You brought our little friend back with you?" Hammer asked as Brass took his place at the side of the chamber entrance.
"What?" The older guard asked as he turned his gaze and was surprised to see the foal from before had followed him back, the bucket turned helmet still covering his head. Without responding the creature slowly took position next to Brass as it did its best to maintain a serious expression.
"What are you doing?" Brass asked flatly
"Gard!" Nibbles hissed in response
"Guard?" Hammer asked with a look of confusion.
"Guard!" Nibbles repeated happily
Both Brass and Hammer turned their gaze to each other a slightly confused look on both of their faces.
"Don't worry" Brass whispered "It'll get bored in a couple of minutes and go do something else."
3 Hours Later
Nibbles remained in his spot never breaking is composer except to hiss at the odd passerby. He didn't plan on leaving anytime soon, he wasn't even sure of what he was doing, he just knew he was doing it well.
"I thought you said he'd get bored?" Hammer whispered
"Shut up" Brass responded
"Prince Nibbles?!" rang a faint but familiar voice as a Changeling popped the corner and proceeded towards the two guards.
"Thorax!" Hammer stated happily "Long time no se-"
"Can't talk" panted the Changeling "Need to find Prince Nibbles"
"Gar!" Hissed Nibbles as he jumped at the unsuspecting Changeling.
"There you are my lord!" Thorax stated in relief "We've been looking for you for hours!"
"That's the Changeling Prince?" Brass asked with a raise brow
"Yes" The Changeling answered as he gave a bow "And my Queen has had us searching the castle for the last 4 hours."
"Gah! Blarg Rah!" Nibbles hissed
"Do you have any idea what he's saying?" Hammer asked
"Yes" Thorax answered with a look of confusion "He's demanding an offering of cookies to the cookie god."
"Bah!"
"Right away my lord!" Thorax answered as he gave another bow, before quickly galloping off towards the nearest kitchen, the Changeling Prince hot on his hooves.
"This was a weird day" Hammer stated flatly
"You're right and it's only 1PM" Brass finished as a small explosion rocked the castle, quickly followed by the standard screams of different godly names.
1000 Years Later
Nibbles, King of the Changeling Empire, bringer of peace and one of the most feared foes in all of Equestria sat on his throne. His court session had long since ended and his Mother and Father had already begun their journey back to Equestria. It as finally his turn to relax after another long day of ruling.
"Thorax!" The King shouted, after several seconds a somewhat ragged looking changeling emerged from one of the many entrance ways.
"Yes my lord?"
"The Cookie God demands Snackrifice!" He stated proudly.
"I hate my job" mumbled the Changeling as he facehoofed.
Nibbles is best abomination
This was perfect...just wait until Chrysy finds out her little demon spawn can talk!
awww so adorable
I have an irresistible urge to say "ADORABLE!" in my loudest and most girlish voice. But I fear for my life if I were to say it.
3160864 He already can talk, just not in Equestrian...
Pffffttt. Nice one, dude.
~Skeeter The Lurker
3160901 Wait till Chrysy finds out her little demon spawn can speak Equestrian!!!!!!!!

I, the cookie goddess, demand and snakrafice!
How amusing.
Damn, Thorax is one long lived changeling. Unless changelings are longer lived in your universe. I can't remember, too many world-canons bouncing around.
clever word play my friend.
COOKIES FOR THE COOKIE GOD!
SNACKS FOR THE SNACK THRONE!
So adorable throughout the entirety of this chapter. Then it was just hilarious when full-grown Nibbles demanded a Snackrifice
My face when
Also I'm sad I'm too late to make a cookie god joke.
Bout time you added yourself! Im happy that you listened to me =3
Nibbles war-grade weapon, king of the changelings, bringer of peace, esteemed guard, helmet enthusiast, luna frankstien (it was luna who made him right?),, demon spawn of sombra and chrysalis and most importantly cookie god
So... does King Nibbles wear a bucket for a crown?
You are a golden comedy god.
Nibbles you adorable little abomination... never change... although from that glimpse into the future he doesn't
And then Lucid comes out of nowhere, and steals his sacrifice.
Yes amazing job yes we also take requests
3161411 Nipples? dont you mean nibbles?
Did someone say cookies?
3161818 honest mistake
Highly inappropriate but unintentional
3161954 it's ok, just pointin it out so you would know, you can actually edit your comment to fix the mistake.
EDIT: oh, ya beat me to the punch, well later then.,
3162193 That's a very old argument. Don't bring it back up.
Here's a fun party game: take turns reading paragraphs from this chapter and see how long it takes for somebody to call him "nipples".
Sounds like something Krieg would say.
nibbles is best gaurd and king! XD
omg i laughed so hard at the image of a changeling with a bucket on its head chasing around another bigger changeling demanding cookies for the cookies god! XD
i seriously hope to see more of Nibbles the best changeling :D
Wow. By sheer chance, the end of the second paragraph (right before the picture) ended up at the very bottom of my screen. It went a little something like this:
... May I have permission to
stealuse the term 'Snackrifice'?Also, Nibbles... Is trying VERY hard to become most cute foal. Luckily, we can just agree that he is most adorable Demon Spawn, and we all win.
3164690 Once again... Old argument
Am I the only one who gets the reference made by Nibbles being a guard with a bucket on his head?
3161003
In my head canon Changelings basically keep living unless A) Something kills them B) They starve to death.
3161439
I was gonna make the joke, but I ran out of time and had to book it to a 2 hour lecture :l
3161908
No please, I've already angered the grandmas not again
3164726
Snackrifice is an old internet meme (If I recall correctly) A Snackrifice is when you bring food to a friends house to try and compensate for what you might eat when you're there (This goes double for parties)
3166342 ... Huh! The more you know! Thanks for educating me! #TheMoarIKnow
3166342 There's always future Chaps...
