Cadance could do little more than stroke her mane with a free hoof while trying to soothe the unicorn with comforting words. Within hours, the village was ablaze, and Chrysalis and her Changelings, with their prisoners in tow, proceeded to return to their hive in the mountain range known as the Black Widow's Peak. The elderly Apple took a deep breath before she spoke. Before his eyes, it opened to reveal Twilight, who was packing her saddlebags. With that, Spike went back inside, the doors closing behind him. "Twilight and Spike left, my bride hates me and called off the wedding and now I'm left to wonder if I really deserve to be Captain of the Royal Guard and be with Twilightmy LSBFF, the pony I loved so much and missed every day before she returned". Same goes for Sergeant Tone and his men.". You didnt even give Spike a chance to choose the wedding or her!, "Mom, please!" What you are about to hear is top secret, and absolutely nopony can know of it.". Not the sort of difficult where Shining could not recall Night's exact words, but the sort of difficult where emotions and mentality were concerned. There is nothing more we desire than this.". Applejack replied. Nothing could get past the stony hardness of her gaze, but the worst of all? "Yeah Spike, I was. After a brief moment's waiting, the shield disappeared, and the front door to the library opened, revealing Twilight. Obviously, Twilight would be irked at the presence of those who betrayed her and left her for dead, so Cadance knew that somehow she would have to explain things in such a way that Twilight's anger would subside, and she would listen. Everything that had happened over the past couple of days was still raging in her mind. Cadance replied calmly. The Mane 5 were completely stuck for words. "It's as simple as that. After thanking the runner, who left the war room immediately, Shining read the letter, which was sent from the village attacked by the Changelings moments earlier. "Which is why I suggest we hide in the Everfree Forest. According to testimony from her friends, she told them that she saw the impostor embarrass and humiliate them without them even realizing it, something that my niece would never, ever do. I did not do it on purpose. However, Sharp Fang, who was also present in the war room, raised a matter which would have concerned the Changelings, were the situation any different. Maintain your cover and I will report back when the time to attack is right. Said Applejack. How it got the seven key ponies ultimately responsible for Canterlot's safety to drop every responsibility they had to the safety of the city in order to spend their time preparing for something as trivial as a wedding. If Spike could tell she was still conflicted with the events of the wedding, then there was no hope of hiding it. ", "No, it's OK. Replied Velvet, making room for Luna to enter. "Y-yeah, sure." "Not at all darling." ", "Canterlot nearly fell, because of the collective incompetence of myself, Captain Armor and the Element Bearers. The wedding hall remained as it was from the moment Twilight ran out crying; a room with an atmosphere crushed under the heavy weights of regret and sorrow. May I come in?". It's too soon.". Worse still, she couldn't comprehend just how little she cared for Twilight, compared to the amount of love and attention she gives to her animal friends daily. Once that is done, my unicorns will then teleport into the castle en masse, where they will begin to harvest the Princesses' love simultaneously, so as to increase their powers and give them extra strength in close combat. He was just a boy. Why would her niece need to see Luna during her watch, and only to show her a spell she had learnt? Stepping inside the library, she made herself comfortable. I have also informed my parents of Twiley's situation.".

It was only now that everypony in the castle had learned of the caves, and ever since, Celestia had sent a scouting party of Royal Guards to investigate them, in order to find out how Chrysalis had managed to imprison both Cadance and Twilight in them, while taking measures to ensure they are never used in such a manner ever again. To ask for her forgiveness and to get her to resume being your student, or simply to resume being your attack dog?". Yelled Rainbow, who proceeded to charge the shield at lightspeed.

"Hi girls." "Has she lost her mind or something?!" She was still listening, despite this. This was a very damning experience for them, but it was one they deserved for treating their best friend the way they did. I mean, I know Twilight was only looking out for us and she was worried for me but the way she barged in with no proof to back up her reasoning, I couldn't tell whether or not she was trying to destroy the wedding or shatter our friendship.. ", "You were thinking about what had happened, weren't you?". ", "I'm not sure darling. Did they really have the matter under control, or were they too caught up in the wedding to remember what was at stake? Once the Princess of Love has entered the treehouse, I want you to signal the battalion, which will be following you, to storm both the treehouse and the village, capture the Princess and bring her to the Hive. ah' was crying last night because of something terrible that ah' did. She will be painted matte white and Celestia themed. Said Shining, who stepped aside to allow Luna to comfort her distraught sister. Together we would go on to do many unspeakable things, including attacking my sister and attempting to thwart the Element Bearers' search for the Elements of Harmony. Twilight, we stand here before you, remorseful and ashamed of what we have done. ", "Very well." After a while, she grinned confidently, settling Barbarousis's nerves. He remembered meeting a pony a few days after he had was cured. Cadance sighed deeply. I'm so sorry Twilight. Applebloom told me about it, y'all were attacked by the Changelings. Surely they won't allow themselves to be defeated as easily as last time! All of this was still cooking up a storm deep in the annals of her mind, and there was little she could do to forget about it. Cried Pinkie. After all, one cannot be mad at a child for simply going with the flow. She's even madder now. Tone asked flatly. "Yes sir!" But it was thanks to Twilight that I was able to "modernize", as the locals say. Furthermore, the want of a hoofshake at this time would have been utter folly. No one said a word until Velvet finally cut in, it was all too much for her to take. As a result, my thoughts and feelings turned to darkness, and it was not long before the Nightmare Forces found me languishing in my bitterness and hatred. The finest spy in my intelligence corps.". The pink alicorn was hoping for a better outcome than the one which had transpired. ", "It is a good plan, Commander." "Of course! ", "Thank you your Majesty." Prowler! Instead, she opted for a conciliatory defeat. But from too many mistakes, there's no love, dancing or cake. We make for the Everfree. "Oh Spike, how could I not forgive you?" "No, please!" Said Chrysalis confidently. Passing through the massive double doors that led to the junction connecting both sister's bedchambers, Celestia led Shining through the door on the right. Just then, Cadance walked into the bakery. I need you, however, to talk to Twilight. I don't care how you do it, just get out of Ponyville, but only when we have Cadance. The worst of it was from Celestia, whom Twilight idolised and worshipped even as a foal. "Applejack, you should know it's too early for me to forgive you.

After a long moment of silence, Fluttershy managed to speak the question that hung on everypony's minds. To make matters worse, she was the Element of Honesty (or rather, the FORMER Element of Honesty) and therefore she couldn't tell a lie. He proceeded to knock on the door. You doing OK this morning? "I slept just fine. After taking the moment to scratch the remaining figments of dirt out of her mane, she took a seat opposite Fluttershy. "No, thank you. "The poor mare must be a mess in there.". For Twilight and Spike, it had felt like hours since they had left Canterlot for Ponyville, but in reality, it had only been a little over an hour and a half. The difference here was that while Twilight was wronged, Spike was as much part of this disaster as Princess Luna was. It was obvious to the cowpony that Big Mac had been busy. Like Twilight, Spike and Cadance before me, I find it hard to comprehend how you, along with Shining and the Element Bearers can dismiss the impostor's attitude as mere stress. She was failing to find words to counter Spike's arguments. Not only did it give off the obvious signs all was not right with Twilight, but it also made the shield stronger. Pinkie piped up. "I understand your grief completely now, Sir Light and Lady Velvet, but while I empathize with your plight, I am not here to promise swift vengeance. Even though he was going to have his flank handed to him, the last thing he would ever do, under pain of death, was defy his princess. However, the pony she opened the door to was unlike anypony she could've possibly expected, her eyes going wide and her jaw dropping to denote her shock. This time, I am willingly choosing to leave because I regret leaving Twilight at all. Replied Velvet anxiously. "Is that why you've come here?! I'm sorry if this interrogation caused you any inconvenience. He was delighted Twilight was able to forgive him, but the question remained; would she be able to forgive the others? Then, when she tried confronting the fiend openly, like indignant fools we chose to abandon her. "Attention!" Celestia screamed in her Royal Canterlot Voice as she woke. Unfortunately, she still managed to surprise the pink alicorn. Do you understand now that being the bridesmaids of the wedding corrupted your minds to the point where your cares and responsibilities faded into nonexistence?". To her surprise, it was the former who answered the door. "Anyway, shall we get onto discussing the plan?". Why was Twilight not corrupted by these Nightmare Forces you speak of? "Do you understand now why Twilight is so upset girls? ", "I like your thinking Snake." This was starting to sound strange. It was just a slip of the tongue. Twilight had just reunited with her brother, who also happened to be the groom. Were it not for Twilight and Cadance's intervention, Canterlot faced certain doom at the hooves of Chrysalis, and they would've been held responsible.

Meanwhile, Pinkie had also just woken up. No matter how hard she tried to ignore it, it throbbed away in her mind like the many bruises she sustained from her numerous crash-landings. Meanwhile, Cadance and the Mane 5 had arrived at Golden Oaks Library, only to find the tall but humble treehouse shut up tight and covered by a large shield, which Cadance was quick to recognize as a spell cast by Twilight to keep out any unwelcome visitors, namely her former best friends. Both the senior Apples looked at Applejack sternly. Rainbow cut in. "Take that back Twilight! twilight runs away from her brother's wedding and ends up on earth in the 1920's. she there meets her only chance to fit in a new world. Stepping through them was Spike. The tale that Celestia was spinning before her was intriguing her more and more. ", "Very well. Whatever thunder Applejack was packing was quickly silenced. As you know, we had received word of a threat against Canterlot, which turned out to be true and more effective than we believed. She was crying tears of both despair and joy. Asked Shroud, preparing his mind to take mental notes, regardless of length. I have to be elsewhere, so I must make my stay here as brief as possible. She, too, is sorry for betraying you, and she is willing to settle the matter using any method possible. Just let it out" Cooed Candace softly, still dutifully caring for the filly she was entrusted with. The colour was the same as Twilight's magical aura, a reddish hue of purple, but it also contained a dark tint. For now, it was just her and Twilight. Said Cadance, her usual mirth waning when she saw how the girls had fared since the previous night. I was just thinking about stuff.

Pinkie Pie went back to Sugarcube Corner and her spirits were lifted by the Cakes and their children greeting her happily. Hah! Before Pinkie could finish speaking, the girls heard a loud thump outside, followed by the sound of something being dragged through mud. As for Shining, he felt it was best Celestia was informed of this development. I want you to lead it. One would expect her to take it maturely. Spike witnesses it and, after the Changelings are sent away, Twilight is awakened by the same shockwave. a canterlot wedding. Thus far, they had tasked their forces with the mission to raid every single one of Canterlot's outlying towns and villages, taking everypony residing in them prisoner and killing those who tried to resist, as per Chrysalis's new policy. The train had now reached the midway point on its journey and yet, Twilight still did not feel at peace. ", "Funny you should mention that Fluttershy, because I didn't either." Yelled the lead Royal Guard. ", "No problem Cadance." Honestly Luna, I can't explain it. It's not like that!" We all chose that stupid bug over our best friend, that's how we repaid Twilight for all the fun times we've had together. a canterlot wedding twilight betrayed fanfiction. What matters is that we are sorry for what we did, and all we want now is for us to be friends again. Only he knows why I grieve at this time, and therefore I request that we be given our peace. Do y'all remember the day I left with Twilight to go to Canterlot for the wedding? When it all comes crashing down, the night will fall. Rarity had a point; Twilight did upset the bride, even though she was an impostor. "Twilight please! The latter looked back up again, her stony facade pulled down to reveal the same broken mare they had last seen in the wedding hall. "That will not be necessary." Inside their carriage, the mood was quite grim. "Princess, it's getting late. In unison, the Mane 5 bowed their heads sadly. In response, Dark Shroud, another of Chrysalis's officers, and one of the most experienced in her army stepped forth. He was desperate to let her know how sorry he was for what he did. "You are in charge of the armory. It described how Chrysalis and her Changelings had attacked the village and completely incapacitated and harvested the Royal Guard garrison stationed there before setting the village's homes alight, capturing the residents and harvesting those who tried to resist. He knew he'd have to tell them everything that happened including their betrayal and the invasion that followed their naivety and ignorance to her. I'm so happy you still believe in me." There was no known reports or rumours of a wedding or any other high-security event this time, according to reports from her spies, thus there wouldn't be a shield to deal with. However, despite her sureness Rainbow could not shake off the nagging of her conscience, which continued to question her loyalty towards Twilight. ", "Is that so?" ", "Of course we do!" The valley through which the convoy walked was dotted with rocks and boulders of all shapes and sizes, with the surrounding mountains acting as a perimeter wall which surrounded the hive. Sniffling her tears up her nostrils, Celestia turned to face Shining. And honestly . "The wedding's been called off", said Shining, trying to keep a straight face. "I am sorry, dear sister. Spike was standing atop the stairwell, his face clearly marked with suspicion. I have already been punished enough for my sins.". Was the collective response from the gathered war room personnel. "Princess Cadance, I'm here to see Twilight. Celestia please help us.". Indeed, it had been 1000 years since I last saw Equestria, and much has changed. All you need to do is think of a Plan B, something that can make and have Twilight understand how sorry you really are. "Yes ma'am!" Shinings heart sank deeper into his stomach. "Dear sister, I have known you for a long, long time. In fact, Twilight even saw her dump a bag of muffins ah' gave her in the trash! Meanwhile, Cadance and the Mane 5 were aboard the train which followed Twilight's to Ponyville. May I come in?". With another sniffle, Celestia recalled what she had sent Shining out to do. They were happy and content, but there was something in their eyes that Applejack could see. The girls could only look at her with frank expressions. Returning to the matter at hoof, Twilight spoke up next. She, too, looked no great shakes. Despite being originally hesitant, Applejack quickly swallowed her sorrows and stepped up to the plate. Luckily, Twilight's timely appearance, with Cadance in tow, blew her cover. Together they moved out of the brush, making their way southeast toward the Everfree. You, her friends and her princess put her and all of Canterlot in jeopardy! Those who tried to resist were quickly incapacitated and harvested. That was all it took for Celestia to collapse into Shining, sobbing in despair. Applejack's always been very punctual. Twilight tried sharing a hoofshake with her from when they were young, but the Princess didn't recognize it.". He couldnt bear to think of it any longer but he wanted to get it over with so they can quickly make amends to his own sister, the Element Bearer's best friend and Celestia's student they all scarred for life.Still, they had to know, so Shining knocked on the door and it opened to reveal his father Night Light. With that, Spike began marching out of the room, tearing off his tuxedo as a symbolic reminder of the corruptive power of the wedding. Her expression was calm, but serious. Applejack retorted. Take care of yourself. Knowing that there was no escape, he took a deep breath and made his decision with a heavy heart. Please believe me, it didn't feel right to leave you hurting like that, but I didn't want to be ejected from the wedding either. Don't come back until you're ready to be Twilight's friends again.". "Yes sir!" With that, Spike began packing his things. "So Sugarcube, will y'have us as friends again?". The look on her face was neither smiling nor frowning, but one of concern. Asked Velvet curiously. Taking a deep breath, Spike proceeded to talk. A redo of MLP: Sleeping Twilight Sparkle. Still, it needed to be done, and the stallion knew he could not forsake priorities for his own wellbeing. "Everypony can come in, but no tricks or merriment. "I just wanted to check on you, make sure you were doing OK after yesterday. "You are dismissed. But worst of all, we threatened to plunge Equestria into eternal night, just so I could get my own self-gratification from watching the ponies celebrate my night. After being laid down gently on the floor, the blue pegasus came to. It was frustrating her to no end. I have to go and find Twilight. Twilight needs us, and we're getting to her one way or another!" "How typical of your lot, Chrysalis" Chortled the lead Guard, Defiant Aegis. The Changeling Queen took her place at the top of the table, flanked by her loyal general. As Twilight and Cadence; the real Cadence; stop the 'wedding', Twilight turns into the new Nightmare Moon. This had left them both hurt and furious, emotions which Luna knew full well would suppurate and fester within their souls. It was my own darned pride that led me to abandon my loyalty. Something snapped in Velvet's mind, and at once the unicorn bowed before the slightly bemused Luna. Spike could only smile at that. I need to know what she was doing the day of the invasion. By the Creator, was Shining right when he guessed this wasn't over. "Sorry Cadance. All she cared about was just going back to her quarters, before crying her eyes out, packing her things and leaving Canterlot, wanting to get away from those who no longer cared for her. "Rainbow!" "I did not commit the same sins you did!". "What?! It bore one of her greatest and most nostalgic hallmarks; a caring, sympathetic smile. "Instead of waiting outside the city to attack, our forces will infiltrate the city in disguise en masse, and blend in with the locals. With that, Rarity had lost anything and everything she was going to say. Therefore I must inoculate both you and your husband using a special spell which will hinder the Nightmare Forces' ability to sense your emotions. Rainbow tried going after him, but Applejack raised a hoof to stop her; it was best that they did not disturb either Spike or Twilight at this time. "What is the matter dear sister? Cadance called out, hoping to hear from either the lavender unicorn or the baby dragon. Without Twilight to lead them, the Elements of Harmony would become useless, and Equestria as a whole would lose its greatest means of defense. The shamed former groom felt antsy about the whole ordeal; now he was beginning to wish he hadnt taken on the extra order from Celestia. princess twilight ts - twilight sparkle rd - rainbow dash ry - rarity aj - applejack fs - fluttershy pp . Said Applejack soothingly. One of the guards said gruffly. Interestingly enough, neither Granny Smith nor Big Mac were anywhere to be seen, but that mattered little to Applejack. For Celestia and the Mane 5, this was very grave news. We're both aware of how badly her friends, Shining and Celestia emotionally damaged her, but how is it she was not taken by them? Spike immediately shot Applejack a glare in hopes it would send shivers down her spine. And in Twilight's case, alone, afraid, and very hurt?". "But Princess, we can't just sit here and do nothing!" screamed Twilight Velvet from the kitchen. We all betrayed you Twilight. Applejack wasn't the only one who betrayed everything she stood for, we did as well. The words "You have a lot to think about" continued to ring throughout the young unicorn's head, a constant reminder of her loved one's betrayal. Instead, it was a case of "had". "It's going to be OK.". "I will not leave anypony to fall victim to the same force that once held me, certainly not this night, nor any other. Greater matters such as this always overruled the minor details, a fact Cadance did not forget. The girls were leaving you..what could I have done? "Aura? Their disguises were as solid as their nerves. The two princesses stayed close so that one could be there for the other in times of distress, but for now that was not to be as Luna was monitoring reconstruction efforts down in the city. ", "I understand." They will no doubt be complemented by cavalry and supported by archers from the castle's parapets. Prepare the prisoners for their rehabilitation.". Night Light turned to comfort his wife and left Shining to return to Celestia and carry on with his orders in shame. Maugrim added jubilantly. The battalion will be waiting in the Everfree within moments of your arrival. She loved them all very dearly, which explained the great pain she was feeling. Clearly you are the worst examples of friends I have ever seen, because you are all perfectly ready and willing to leave Twilight when it suits you, now am I right or am I not?". Do you have any idea what would have happened to me if..". Applejack stopped eating. At the same time, I felt Celestia wasn't paying any attention herself, which only made me feel worse. It was still clear within the depths of her mind; how harsh her brother was toward her, and how her so-called friends thought it right to walk out on her with no sign of pity or consolation. On the other hoof, the levels of disbelief grew for both Night and Velvet as they took in every little bit of Shining's story. If it comes without heart or feeling, I promise you that she will never forgive neither you nor her friends and the Princess. "Cadance, I need you to talk to Twilight, because she needs to know I am extremely sorry for what I have done. Could you explain the basics of what happened?". I'm your number one assistant.

After a while of walking, Spike eventually reached Twilight's quarters, where he saw Princess Cadance closing the door leading inside. She smiled at him warmly. Rarity's expression remained unchanged, but she decided it was best she did not dwell on it. He was still her loyal assistant, and as such he would follow up on his role's job description, as well as the promise he made to himself to never leave her again, following his forgiveness by Twilight. "So, what's the plan?". "Of course we did!" Sorry I'm late. You know why we are here. "The operation should take 8 hours maximum, but it is currently unknown what kind of defensive capabilities the enemy possesses. "I know that what she did wasn't exactly noble of herself either, but Rarity, you must understand. Furthermore, she did also upset the bride, my niece. We both know Cadance is capable of taking on any responsibility with the same good grace and warmth she is so blessed with.
