AN: I do not own MLP, it belongs to Discovery
Phoenix flew as fast as her wings could take her straight to Twilight's castle. When she arrived, she was lucky enough to catch Twi on her balcony and landed right beside the startled Alicorn. "Twilight, we got a huge problem that involves Cloud and I need to send Princess Celestia and Princess Luna a letter ASAP."
"Um, sure thing Phoenix.." Twilight said while leading Phoenix inside and right to her desk. After giving Phoenix a spare quill and paper, Twilight then addressed the elephant in the room. "But I have to ask what is the big deal about Cloud for you to get the Princesses involved? This is so unlike you since you normally have royal involvement being a last resort."
"Well excuse me Princess Twilight Sparkle, but you never experienced the shock of waking up and finding out your husband-to-be had somehow turned into a female changeling..." Phoenix said as she finished writing and turned to see the shocked face of the lavender mare in front of her. "Now if you would be so kind, would you please have Spike send this letter off?"
"Wait a second Phoenix, you said Cloud is now a FEMALE changeling!? If you don't mind me asking, what did Cloud's eyes look like?"
"Same shade of green as always but here is the thing, they were not orbs, they were slits." Phoenix said with a small shrug. At that moment Spike came in carrying a bunch of scrolls right as the statement that just came out of her muzzle hit home to the two mares. "Cloud is a queen..isn't he..."
"Um, am I missing something?" Spike asked making his presence known as he dropped the scrolls at Twilight's hooves in a neat and organized pile.
"Those can wait since we got a much bigger problem at hoof." Twilight said taking the letter in her magic and giving it to Spike. "Send it now, don't ask questions, I got to go for a bit but I will be back shortly." With that, Twilight teleported her and Phoenix out of the room leaving a very confused drake standing there.
"Wonder what the fuss is all about..." Curiousity got the better of him and he read the letter, causing his jaw to drop. "Oh boy..." He muttered before sending it without hesitation.
-Canterlot-
Princess Celestia and Princess Luna were in the garden casually drinking tea and enjoying a few minutes together before Luna went to bed for the day when a letter appeared in front of the solar sister. "Something wrong Tia?" Luna sleepily asked.
"I do not know but looks important Lulu.." Celestia replied before opening the letter:
"Dear Princess Celestia and Princess Luna,
I do not know any other way to tell you this but the full truth. Somehow during the middle of the night Cloud was turned into a changeling, but not just any changeling, he is now female and her eyes are slits like Queen Chrysalis' were. Speaking of her, I suspect she is the cause of this mess. Please come to mine and Cloud's home as soon as you can and PLEASE DON'T SCARE OR KILL MY FIANCÉE!
Sincerely your faithful subject,
Phoenix Starburster
P.S. Just to prove I am not a changeling or controlled by one: Celestia you once broke into Sugarcube Corner to eat all the chocolate cake until Pinkie stopped you. As for Luna, your favorite flavor of cupcake is Cookies&Cream."
Both princesses just stared at the letter, both facts being 100% true. "Well Tia, what are we gonna do?" Luna, who somehow had found a second wind of energy, managed to say breaking the stunned silence between the two alicorns.
"Depends, do you want to know what I want to do or what I am gonna do Lulu?"
The navy blue mare paled, causing her coat to lighten several shades. "I really don't wanna know but..both.."
"What I WANT to do is squash that damn bug once and for all..." Celestia growled as the heat of the sun breifly gathered at the tip of her horn before she calmed slightly and it dissipated. "But what we ARE gonna do is go see Cloud, she must be a nervous wreck and since changelings feed off emotions, she needs all the comfort she could get right about now to counteract the trauma and fear."
Luna nodded. "I agree dear sister, let's go there post haste." After letting their guards know that they had some urgent private business to attend to, they left Canterlot as quick as their magic could carry them. When they got to the house, they found the inside looking like a disaster zone. Despite being made out of clouds, the furniture was completely broken and there was scattered cloud bits everywhere. Even that was not including the scattered books and broken glass that fell from shelves that no longer existed and a frying pan laying in the middle of the floor. After a brief search, they found me, Phoenix, Twilight, my sisters, and Pinkie in what was left of the living room area. I was under a thick quilt but even so I was still slightly shivering, Phoenix was comforting me, Twilight was going over some notes she had jotted down, Scootaloo was comforting Rainbow, and Pinkie was feeding me hot soup. "What in Tartarus happened here? This place looks like a complete war zone." Luna said getting everypony's attention. They all bowed except me, since I was bundled up, so I gave them both a polite nod. Pinkie managed to bow without spilling a drop of soup, which by this point from knowing her so long, surprised nopony.
"That would be my fault..." Rainbow said with guilt ridden tone as she proceeded to explain the carnage.
