My Little Pony : The Changeling Swarm
A/n: This is a side story explaining and delving into the changeling Swarm hopefully I can explain how they work and there military , well leave a review and enjoy :)
Chapter 1 Enter the Changelings
It was after the speech and separation of Princess Luna and Celestia , did Queen Chrysalis become aware.
Her husband , King Metamorphosis had just come back from a hive meeting with the other rulers of each hive .
"Ah my love , how did it go?" asked Chrysalis curiously.
"Quite interesting , they too have heard the separation of Luna and Celestia , the other queens are preparing there armies just in case , now we should do the same" said King Metamorphosis .
"I see , I'll relay that message" said Chrysalis . With in a few minutes she spread the word that Celestia is a tyrant and should begin work on the army , and other divisions .
The other drones understood and got right to work constructing weapons like the Aks 74u assault rifle , the BSG 2 MK1 , the Queens Scythe , and the changelin .
"as you know my love , the drones are constructing weapons , I'll have them build the S U 27 fighter jet , for those who don't want to fly" said Queen Chrysalis .
"I see , well that I can go , however though , we should at least work with the other queens and coordinate with them" said King Metamorphosis .
"Which we will , trust me , I know what I'm doing , just trust me" said Queen Chrysalis with a smile .
"Alright I trust you" said King Metamorphosis with a small smile .
Hours later there daughters and sons came out and decided that they should have some family time .
One of the changeling servants brought them some food , they took it and the servant was dismissed for the rest of the hour .
He bowed and left with the tray balanced on his back .
"If there is one thing that I do know , is that we should also begin to build up our military" said King Metamorphosis .
He looked over to see his daughters and son happily playing with each other .
"I know , which is why I'm going to have several factories spring up with orderless gas , so Celestia won't notice us" said Queen Chrysalis . Her husband pondered this in thought for a while , while Queen Chrysalis tended to the family .
Elsewhere in the hive
Queen Venacia also heard the news as she ordered an increase in the military . "You heard me , do it" ordered Queen Venacia with a low growl .
"yes my queen, I'll get right on it" said the drone . He flew off to relay the message to the other drones in the hive .
Hours later , Queen Venacia was now working on several weapon designs , one of those being the M4 , the M 16 , AK 47 , Glock 17 , M1911 , double barrel shotgun , several sniper rifles , mini guns , Gatling guns , grenades , and several fighter jets like the F 15 , F18 , F 16 , F 22 Raptor , and the mo 17 foxwolf a .
This is perfect ,I must send this off to research and development thought Vencaia .
With that she did the blueprints disappeared and were gone from her magic grasp. She soon relaxed and decided to just hang around .
Changeling Swarm Research and Development
The changeling in charge receieved the blueprints and was surprised .
" Alright everyling , get to work !, we have weapons and fighter jets to build and test!" he ordered . Quickly the worker drones got right to work, while he just kicked back and just let his mind wonder .
Back at the main hive
Queen Chrysalis and King Metamorphosis , decided to send in spies into the solar Empire , knowing that it would work , they did so, willing changelings volunteered to disguise themselves as either the normal upper class pony, or a 'solar' guard as they are now calling themselves .
With there orders they took off into the direction of Canterlot , they knew a fast way there , to just fly then once they were insight of said capital they would change into there disguises .
"Alright , we are almost there , just a bit further my brothers and sisters" said a male changeling .
With the last of there strength , they changed into several random ponies some normal ponies others solar guards .
They soon just walked inside Canterlot , and took there positions among the solar Empire, not even Celestia was aware of what was going on .
Meanwhile Chrysalis and Metamorphosis , were tending to there factories , while research and development was working on there soon to be military , but also had to work on there tanks , and maybe a few other fast moving vehicles .
However Queen's Unversia , and Vespa were working with Chrysalis to build the entire changeling military , from not just drones but , changelings that can fight from families , mixed with drones
"Soon my children , Celestia will be no more and we among other races will spread through out the entire galaxy , but that time is NOT now , now is the time to start building our weapons , our fighter jets , our space fighters , our ships of which we will wage great battles among the heavens themselves , we will wipe out the tyrannical , SOLAR EMPIRE ! , we will show them that the changeling swarm is unstoppable , they will regret not stopping us when they could at Canterlot so long ago , it is they who are week , not us , Celestia cowers behind her mighty castles , her mighty army , this is why we are superior , we can take on ANY challenge that she throws at us" said Chrysalis loud and proud .
The changelings heard this and cheered knowing they were right .
"So my children , already , our spies are among the ponies of Canterlot , and Celestia is unaware of it which is why , we must build our military from not just drones but changelings from families that can fight and hold a weapon while doing so" said King Metamorphosis .
Again the changelings cheered and looked at each other , knowing that this war will gain them a lot , which is why there military is coming first .
The rest of the royal family stood proud with there parents , smiles on there faces as they looked toward the crowd .
"That is why , my children of my own familiy are going to fight in this war , I encourage every single changeling mother and father to do so with there kids , let them join the swarm , let them fight , let them be apart of something greater , let them experience what we changelings can do" said Chrysalis with a proud smirk .
"Also , our air force , will CRUSH theres easily , which is why we are going to use our changeling magic to get it to shape shift to make it look like either one of the planes from the New Lunar Republic OR the Solar Empire , Celestia has no idea what we are really up to!" .
Hours later massive cheering from the parents , from the children , from all of the drones and working changelings was music to Chrysalis's ears .
Both her and her husband couldn't be happier , knowing that there entire species is more than willing to not only get revenge but to take on the solar empire.
Meanwhile , another queen by the name of , Penumbra , was also working on the space forces, fighters like the Viper , The Viper MK II , The Cobra Viper , The Imperial Superiority Fighter , Troop Transports , Warthog drop ships , Colonial Salamander MK I , A heavy Raptor , Talon 2 Xf 400 , and finally the X 83 fighter as well .
Once again perfect I'll send these off towards the space division to build well mostly the fighters and drop ships thought Penumbra .
She sent them off in a flash and she soon decided to meet with Chrysalis. She soon reached the main hive , where it was bustling with activity .
Much to her surprise , she saw Chrysalis directing her drones to begin construction on the weapons , the fighters and even a few jets.
"Ah , Chrysalis , it's good to meet you" said Penumbra . "Penumbra , it's been a while , what's going on?" asked Chrysalis .
"I have actually some good news , the entire army of the solar empire was nearly wiped out thanks to the military might of the New Lunar Republic" said Penumbra .
" Are you sure?" asked Chrysalis a bit concerned .
"Yes , soon this war may end in one fell swoop" said Penumbra . "well don't count your ,changelings before there born" said Chrysalis .
Soon the other queens came , they all had a meeting in there own version of the war room .
"Now then , here's what we are going to do , have our spies reported anything?" asked Chrysalis getting to the point .
"Actually our spies from within the Solar Empire , have reported a few things , mostly the construction of some new white like armor , along with some called a 'blaster' if you will , also I found out who is in charge of the solar fleet , it's none other than Twilight Sparkle , the now former element of magic , the very pony who disowned her friends for power" reported Unversia .
"Good , I really didn't expect Sparkle to disown her friends like that , it is unexpected of her" muttered Chrysalis confused. .
Hours later the Changeling King entered and decided to join the meeting with the other queens , including his wife .
"You mind if I sit in?" asked Metamorphosis . "No , I don't mind at all , in fact we could use your input" said Chrysalis gesturing to a seat.
The changeling king took his seat next to Queen Sarracenia and Queen Vespa .
But he was closer to his wife , "Now I have a question , What are we going to do about the solar threat against us , with Celestia in power , she may turn her attention to us" voiced Metamorphosis .
"I suppose we could attack her or let her come to us and we fend her off" said Queen Unversia . "With what?" asked King Metamorphosis confused .
"Well several prototypes are being developed mostly for weapons , tanks , and fighter jets" said Queen Vespa .
"That is correct , each of us are going to build a seperate part of our military , so should Celestia come at us , we will be ready for her" said Queen Sarracenia with a smirk .
"I guess I can accept that" said King Metamorphosis . "I have a question as well , what about our navy?" asked Chrysalis .
"That's already being taken care of , which is why we should find a planet and begin to colonize it" said Queen Vencia .
She walked into the war room with a small thin smile on her face .
"Oh really?" asked Chrysalis .
"Yes , Chrysalis , already we are looking for a planet or at least a moon and we go from there" added Venacia with a smug grin .
"Well , at least most of us are going to be working on building our military , while you just focus on a new home for us changelings , Luna forbid there could be a problem" said Chrysalis seriously .
"Don't worry , I've got this" said Venacia .
"well we are going to need several things such as , commanders , captains , generals , admirals , sargents , lieutenants , corporals , staff stargents , field medic's , fleet admrials , and of course a central command like Fleet Command" suggested another queen who appeared in the door way of the war room . "And who are you?" asked Chrysalis bearing her fangs .
"I am Queen Red mist" said Red mist . "Ah , Red mist , well then join us , the more allies we have , the more of a chance that we can make an attack on Canterlot" said Chrysalis with cackle .
"I wouldn't bet on that , Celestia would be expecting us , which is why we build our forces and hit them with everything we have , then begin to secure a few cities" said Red mist .
"That's not a bad idea" said Chrysalis with a smug grin on her face .
Hours later , the meeting had gotten very technical , some of the queens either requested something to eat or drink , just to keep them going .
Soon , Queen Chrysalis had concluded the meeting with every single changeling queen knew what to do at that point .
Celesita you have no idea who you are truly messing with!thought Chrysalis .
She walked to join her lover and decided that when there kids were older they would train them. Soon. Hours later , Chrysalis and Metamorphosis soon retired to there chambers to get some sleep . However though , they would be visited by two certain lunar princesses
Dream Scape
Chrysalis and Metamorphosis soon awoken to find themselves in a whole new realm .
However , both changeling rulers both kept a calm and level headed mind . That was when the lunar princesses both shimmered into view .
"Ah so you must be Chrysalis , I am Princess Luna , Co-ruler of the New Lunar Republic and this is my sister Princess Star Chaser , also a Co-ruler" said Luna with a proud smile .
"It's an honor to make your aquitance , I am Queen Chrysalis , also a Co-ruler of the changeling Swarm , this is my lover King Metamorphosis Co-ruler as well" said Chrysalis .
"Tis an honor to meet you both , listen I am going to be sending a human and a pony to acoumpany him , do welcome him with open hooves" said Luna .
"I will , and yes I am way over the Canterlot wedding fiasco" said Chrysalis .
"I see , very well then , there will be a few things that I am going to have my human talk with you about" said Luna .
"Oh and what might those be?" asked Chrysalis with an arching eyebrow .
"purposing an alliance among other things" said Star Chaser .
"I think we can agree to that" said King Metamorphosis .
Hours later they soon move onto the other ponies of the New Lunar Republic to keep them safe from any kind of nightmarish attacks .
While Queen Chrysalis and King Metamorphosis decided to talk , however though a few things were on there minds . To them it didn't matter , all it mattered was gaining Luna's Trust , and just fighting Celestia .
"We could betray her for the Solar Empire and wipe out the New Lunar Republic" suggested Metamorphosis . Chrysalis was shocked , she slapped him hard across his muzzle , leaving a nasty mark behind it .
"Don't you dare talk like that ! , I refuse to betray Princess Luna , I will NOT ! , no , we need this alliance in order ot help fight the Solar Empire , this will be perfect for the both of us" said Chrysalis . Metamorphosis apologized , however he was given the cold shoulder .
"Your lucky , if it were anyone else , I would have killed them where your standing right now" said Chrysalis in a low cold tone.
"Look , I really am sorry , I didn't know you would get offended by such a thing" apologized the King .
"It's fine , besides , I knew you didn't mean it , which is why I do have this to say , DON'T ! , I repeat DON'T ! do that again" said Chrysalis warningly . Wit that said the two hugged and began talking of the first city to strike and start to take land .
"No , not Ponyville , I would recommend Fillydelphia , it's more than likely there's going to be solar troops , and add to that , that we too are going to struggle with something like this , plus we will need several ponies to make up our own elite flying and fighting team" said Chrysalis .
"I could put a few drones together and make them , the shape shifters" suggested Metamorphosis .
"I see that working , but lets take our time with this" said Chrysalis .
The changeling king nodded and they decided to just talk about other things , though it was time to wake up .
When they did there bodies shimmered out of view . Soon work would begin on the air force and squadrons .
Location : The Badlands , Changeling main hive
Chrysalis and Metamorphosis woke up and forgot about the whole 'argument' , that happened between them back in the dream scape .
"Well my love , should we check on those factories?" asked Metamorphosis with a hopeful smile .
"I believe so , I wish to see how there doing" said Chrysalis .
With a flicker of her horn both she and her husband were cleaned . A few minutes later they were off towards there new factories to oversee there construction .
"I take it , that these factories are ready?" asked Chrysalis .
"Indeed , my queen they are , in fact we are now setting up the machines to mostly do the work , however we are going to have worker drones working on some of the parts" he said .
"Most excellent , I would expect nothing less" said Chrysalis happily .
Metamorphosis was pretty much getting down to the details of these factories such as proclivity among other things . Hours later the changeling rulers soon left with smiles on there faces .
"I think we have a chance with these factories" said Chrysalis . "Indeed ,we do and Celestia wouldn't notice us while we work" added Metamorphosis.
"Once again , true" .
A few hours later they soon were inside there main hive seeing several maids and butlers working overtime keeping the entire palace cleaned , both changeling rulers knew that sooner or later that they would have to enter the war with there military .
"While our military is being built , I do suggest we look for a planet on which to populate on" said King Metamorphosis .
"you are quite correct , which is why our astronomers are working on that task , and at the sametime we are having our scientists design a special suit that allows our changelings to work in space to build , dry docks , space stations , along with doing space walks" said Chrysalis with a proud smirk .
"My love , you really are amazing at such things like this" said Metamorphosis lovingly .
"Thank you" said Chrysalis with a soft smile . A few hours later a changeling butler came with a message .
"My Queen it's from Celestia , she's requesting an alliance against Luna" said the butler with a concerned look .
Raising an eyebrow she looked over the message , Chrysalis knew that if she accepted she would be going against Luna , furrowing her brows in anger she blasted the message until it burned into ashes .
"Tell her , that whatever 'alliance' she 'requests' she will get no such help from me" said Chrysalis firmly .
"As you wish my queen" said the butler . He soon left the room and found a room of which to write a reply .
Chrysalis was breathing hard after seeing the letter from Celestia .
Metamorphosis , walked over to her and soon took her towards there room to just get her to calm down , she finally did and soon joined her kids just playing and enjoying there young lives.
"Soon Chrysalis , they will have to be trained soon" said Metamorphosis with a concerned look .
"I know my love , I know , which is why we plan to do what is needed to protect this entire hive as a whole , and our other queens lives" said Chrysalis sharing the same look . They both looked at there kids and that brought smiles to there faces .
A few minutes later they walked out of the room and decided to go over a few laws while helping out there citizens until night came again .
Location : Dream Scape
Metamorphosis and Chrysalis once again , found themselves in the dream scape , however they soon saw both Luna and Star Chaser attending to there subjects . "At least we do what we can to help our subject's day" said Chrysalis .
"Look , we do what we can do , however though , giving everyling a pleasant dream is there job not ours" said Metamorphosis .
And he was right but he didn't have to worry about that , however though they still had stuff like there military , and there own economy to worry about. Other than that there entire civilization would be thriving and fast .
They soon found themselves with Luna and Starchaser who both had news to give .
"So Celestia contacted us for an alliance" said Chrysalis .
"Are you serious ?! , she must be getting desperate for alliances to use against me" said Luna with a serious frown. "Are you sure ? , why would Celestia contact you?"asked Star Chaser a bit confused .
"I don't know the whole thing , I only know is that she was offering me and my children freedom , but as the queen I am I had to refuse , she crossed the line doing that , making her ponies work 12 hours instead of 8 hours , making the day last longer , imposing tax laws , taxing crops , and even imposing unfair laws , such as you can't leave from any such speech , among other unfair laws" said Chrysalis .
"Yes , I was there , and yes those laws are quite unfair , I tried to have them appealed , but it was no dice , Celestia just wouldn't listen to me , she use to care about her ponies , now it seemed that she didn't , which was why she didn't donate any bits to the local orphanages at all , and now she has homeless ponies to deal with and what does she ? , she has them executed just for stealing , and robbing , oh and even murder for bits as well" said Luna with a frown .
"I know sister , we tried but you knew Celestia wouldn't listen' sid Star Chaser .
"I know that now Star Chaser , I know that now , and this time I know that war is the only answer , there is no other way , we already took Trottingham , Baltiamre is going to be next" said Luna seriously . "Then we can take Ponyville" said Chrysalis .
"Be very careful , that's where some of the guards operate , besides there is a curfew on that town anyway" said Star Chaser
"Right , I know what am going to be doing , taking out the solar troops , they won't see it coming' said Chrysalis .
One thing was clear , that Star Chaser , Luna , Chrysalis and Metamorphosis knew that this had to end , one way or another.
"Then it's agreed then , divide and concur" said Luna . "I couldn't agree more Princess Luna , Celestia is only going to focus on you and the New Lunar Republic , she won't see us coming" said Metamorphosis .
"That's correct , King Metamorphosis , Celestia will have NO idea that another civilization is starting to concur Equestria , which is why Celestia will only be focused on defeating me , even if she has to risk it all to do so" stated Luna .
Star Chaser nodded in agreement with her sister , and knowing Celestia , there was one thing about her that always struck a chord with her, she always seemed off . Hours of talking later , and the two lunar sisters shimmered out of existance . Leaving the two changeling rulars thinking as to how there first attack is going to work. "If we attack now , then that would alert Celestia" said Chrysalis
"That maybe true but we should wait until we have enough of our weapons , tanks , fighter jets , and navy to make a move on the Solar Empire , cause as it is now , we wouldn't have much of a chance" stated Metamorphosis .
"Your right , your right , Lets do this your way" said Chrysalis with a bit of a sigh in her tone of voice . "Aren't I always right?" asked King Metamorphosis with a cheesy grin on his face .
They soon got to talking about other things before the sun soon started to rise signaling another day , and another day of building the factories , and researching weapons , tanks , fighter jets and space fighters , changeling space suits , and space fighters and ships .
