Sup guys? Lighting Wolf here, back with another story, this one about MLP. Enjoy the 900-word chapter. I don't own MLP, Hasbro and a few others do.
(Swamps of Equestria)
She seethed…. Oh, did she seethe, they had taken half of her hive from her…
Chrysalis role from the waters, it restored her magic as she looked at what remained of her kingdom.
"Starlight Glimmer… It's time for Equestria to see what I'm capable of… And as for Thorax… It's time he learns what a queen can do…" The Changeling Queen said as she laughed.
(Thorax's hive)
There were many types of Changeling in the kingdom, they were born from a magic acorn, they were nothing alike.
There were dozens of drones which served as soldiers and the workers of the hive, they made up 50% of the hive. They buzzed around the hive at the moment.
There was the Generals who had reported to Chrysalis and led her armies, they had been born with enhanced intelligence and had more dragonfly like wings which made them faster and made them lighter. They also had scorpion tails which made them dangerous despite their roles. 20% of the hive they were, they were the nobles of the hive as well.
There were armored changelings, born with shell like wings around their abdomens and who served as the muscle and guards of the kingdom. They were slower, but could dig through dirt and were even stronger in combat. They made up 10% of the hive.
Then there was Changelings like him, the ones born with antennas, they were a rare breed, while they made up 10% of the hive, they were special. They had been with intelligence only worthy of them, they were also born with enhanced smell and hearing . They were perfect spies and scouts, and while their antennas hindered them in the air, their antennas acted like second limbs, capable of lashing out, grabbing, crushing, anything the Antenna Changelings could think of.
Mandible flexed his antennas as he hung upside down like a bat with the rest of the sub changelings. He knew most of his kind avoided changelings like him, they were spies, they were loyal to those who was a good leader.
"Chry…Salis…" Mandible muttered as the blue and yellow scaled changeling looked around, he hated his look, the only reason he didn't join his Queen in her exile was because he had plans.
"Mandible? You ok?" Mandible heard from a voice, he looked around and dropped down from the tree, the Changeling was a drone, a reddish crimson and pink one with pink eyes.
"Proboscis? You're here why? I'm resting due to that blasted… Blast." Mandible hissed; he had only been approached by only 2 members of the hive.
Proboscis, who continued to try and get him to be social and Cilia, his sister who he would never betray along with his mother and father.
"Well, Thorax wanted to see you, big king of the hive." Proboscis stated with a smile, Mandible rolled his eyes and slammed one of his antennas into the tree, shattering part of the bark.
"He's not a king, Proboscis. He is a usurper, a king can lead and make tactical decisions, he can't think his way out of a bag if need be. He also can only inspire the drones, he can't fight…" Proboscis heard from Mandible as the Changeling spy prepared to start his plan, he had to leave soon.
"Hey, at least he's a good guy! "Proboscis stated, Mandible would agree with that, he didn't hate Thorax, nor did he think he was a bad fit for a leader.
But the Changeling didn't understand war like Mandible and others did, if danger came… He would lead the hive to danger.
"Yeah, I guess, I need to go, Proboscis. You take care." Mandible stated before he flew off and then and realized Proboscis was going to a group of other Changelings.
He shrugged and landed in the forest, he needed to get going, he talked to his sister and said his goodbyes. He had to move onwards, he couldn't think of his hive and friends at the moment.
Only his plan took precedence of that, he flew into the forest, he would need power for that, much more power. He didn't get far into the forest before he cracked his back and then looked over his shoulder.
Proboscis and a group of changelings were looking for him, he flew off, he continued ever relentless to make sure that nobody would see him.
They wouldn't understand his idea, his idea was to find Chrysalis, but to confront her he needed power, much more power. He had his reasons, selfish or not and the last thing he needed was others to slow him down.
"Mandible!" Mandible heard and he turned and looked behind him and sighed, he didn't need this, at all. He opened his eyes, already knowing what he'd hear as he looked around and he sighed.
"What you going to do?" Mandible heard as he looked around.
Author Note
Phew, first chapter done! I want to point out I know how this chapter contradicts with what is in the show. I will explain Mandible next chapter. I also want to point out that Chrysalis will be a major character in the story. Next chapter will be next week and will show Mandible talking and his plan. Until then, Lighting Wolf out!
