Stealthy Corruption

The Past

Charging into Celestia's throne room, my nostrils flared with anger.
"CELESTIAAAAAAAAA!!" I shouted, slightly taken aback by my tone of voice. Who cares? She technically guaranteed my death with that spell! Sitting down I waited patiently for her to arrive. Hours went by. Damn it! I'm going to die soon!

The elegant snow white alicorn descended into the room eventually, her mouth curved into a frown. Sitting down on her throne, she folded her wings and slammed the door shut with her magic. Making sure nopony else besides us two were around, she took a long sip from a glass of wine and slumped back in her godly chair.

"Yes, my faithful Twilight?" She commented, her voice emotionless.
"I know what you did to Snowdrop." I yelled, my voice cracking underneath my tears.
Celestia's eyes purplish pink eyes clouded with doubt.
"There's no evidence that the spell killed her." She stated calmly, her statement rippling smooth beams of soothing velvety softness. Damn! She's using a spell to calm me down!
I spread out my wings and glared at her.
"What did she die of?"
Silence echoed the halls.
"WHAT DID SHE DIE OF?!" I demanded, stamping my hoof on the ground, creating a rippling effect.
Her eyes flickered back and forth like she was watching a game of pony tennis.
"I thought I would be ready for this.." She sighed, talking to herself.
"That's not an answer."

Her eyes flared purple fire.
"You think I WANTED her to die? You think I ENJOYED seeing her in pain?"
"There's more to being a princess than you think, Twilight. Immortality is a curse, not a gift. You have to live through all of your mistakes. All of your regrets. Live past your friends and loved ones."
My cheeks blushed, embarrassment flooding through my pelt.
"I didn't know.."
"Of course you didn't!" She snapped. " I wanted her to live forever, alongside Luna and I. Luna was her closest friend; together they told tales of the dark and laughed in the moonlit night. Luna and I agreed one day, agreed to make her one of us. But it went wrong."

"What d-do you mean?" A shiver rippled down my spine.
"She changed."
"You mean she got her eyesight back? She grew a horn too?" I stammered, words tumbling out of my mouth.
"No. Something snapped."

It feels kinda rushed but an interesting idea so I favourite and wait for updates.

I saw nothing in the show that suggested Celestia cast the spell

That space for an introduction, the first bit of text your potential reader will see outside of the title? That's where you try to sell the story, make said reader want to read your story. It is not the place to state multiple disclaimers that read like criticism-proof shields and nothing but. ((Yes, I am aware you state "Pretty much a basic Twilight Sparkle Alicorn continuation speculated in boredom while waiting for the release of Season 4" at the beginning, but that tells me next to nothing about the story. It's certainly not going to convince me to read it.))
