My Little Pony: The Power of True Love and True Friendship
Chapter 13
Twilight In Danger
Everypony in the hall was silent and appalled at what Twilight just said, she actually called Princess Cadence evil. The mane 6 talked among themselves, wondering why Twilight was acting like this, Neo couldn't believe it, he said to himself, "Oh Twilight, not now." Neo knew what was going on, but he wanted to wait for the right time for confrontation, but Twilight was confronting Princess Cadence too soon.
Then Twilight continued accusing Princess Cadence, she said, "She's been horrible to my friends, she's obviously done something to her bridesmaids, and if that wasn't enough, I saw her put a spell on my brother that made his eyes go all..." and she spun her eyes around like hypnotism, Cadence tried to act innocent and she said, "Why are you doing this to me?" Twilight cornered her and said, "Because you're evil." Cadence cried and ran out of the hall, Twilight chased her out of the room and shouted, "You're evil, do you hear me, EVIL, and if I don't stop you, you're gonna ruin my brother's life."
Twilight looked back and saw Shining Armor glaring angrily at her, he said, "You want to know why my eyes went all..." he spun his eyes around like hypnotism, and she said, "Because ever since I started having to perform my protection spell, I've been getting terrible migraines, Cadance hasn't been casting spells on me, she's been using her magic to heal me." Twilight tried to take a breath, then Shining Armor said, "And she decided to replace her bridesmaids because she found out the only reason they wanted to be in the wedding was so that they could meet Canterlot royalty." The mane 6 felt so concerned, but Neo said to himself, "I don't believe that, not for a fucking second." Then Shining Armor kept defending Cadence and said,"And if she hasn't been on her best behavior with your friends, it's because with me being so busy, she's had to make all the decisions about the wedding." Twilight began to feel guilty about what she did, she said, "I was just trying to..." Shining Armor cut her off and said, "She's been completely stressed out because it's really important to her that our big day be perfect, something that obviously wasn't important to you, now if you'll excuse me, I have to go and comfort my bride, and you can forget about being my best mare, in fact, if I were you, I wouldn't show up to the wedding at all."
Shining Armor walked out of the room with an angry look on his face, Applejack said, "C'mon, y'all, let's go check on the princess." The mane 6 and Spike walked out of the hall with angry looks on their faces, furious about Twilight's behavior, then Princess Celestia walked out of the room as well with an angry look on her face. Twilight tried to apologize, but Princess Celestia said, "You have a lot to think about young mare." The only person left in the room was Neo, but he began to leave too, Twilight couldn't believe that Neo was leaving her too, but Neo walked by Twilight and he whispered, "I believe you, trust me." Then Neo left the room.
Twilight was all alone now, but she felt good that Neo was still on her side, but she felt so guilty about confronting Cadence, now she felt like she lost her brother and he may never speak to her again, she said to herself, "Maybe I was being overprotective, I could've gained a sister. But instead... I just lost a brother." Twilight began thinking about her brother and how much he meant to her, and she was so afraid that he may never want to see her ever again.
Then suddenly, Princess Cadence appeared in front of Twilight, she patted Twilight on the head and gave her a comforting look, Twilight looked up at her and said, "I'm sorry." Then Cadence changed her expression to an angry look and she said, "You will be." Her eyes and horn glowed and green fire appeared around Twilight, then the green fire surrounded Twilight with a green force field and the force field pulled her down under the castle. Cadence walked out of the room with an evil smile on her face.
Meanwhile, Neo was sitting on in his room, he suddenly felt something inside of him, his instincts were telling him that Twilight was in danger, the bad feeling made his head hurt, in his mind, he could hear Twilight screaming for help, he knew deep down that she was in danger, Neo ran out of his room and ran down the hallway. Then he saw Cadence coming up the hall, he quickly hid behind the wall, he saw her smiling an evil smile, he knew that she must have done something to Twilight, he said to himself, "You son of a bitch, I swear to God, if you hurt Twilight, I will kill you." Neo was so angry, he wanted to hit her, but he knew he couldn't because it would draw attention to himself and Cadence will just act all innocent and he'll probably end up like Twilight, so Neo just had to wait for the right time, he felt like he had to get more evidence.
Later they redid the rehearsal and it went as planned, and nopony seemed to care that Twilight didn't show up, except for Neo. Then finally, everypony was asleep and was looking forward to the wedding the next day, but Neo was the only person who was awake.
Neo sneaked out of his room with his computer and his film footage that he recorded earlier that day of Cadence hypnotizing Shining Armor, Neo went inside a private room and turned on his computer, he went into the database of creatures in Equestria that have been accused of crimes and have criminal records, he looked into the files and found various creatures with criminal records including Nightmare Moon, Discord, King Sombra, and Tirek. He read their history but none of them seemed like they were behind any of this, then he came across the file of Queen Chrysalis, as he looked at her record, saying that she was changeling, Neo said to himself, "Hello lady, who might you be?" He looked at her history and she had a long list of crimes including conspiracy to overthrowing the kingdom, kidnapping, illegal hypnotism, attempt to assassinate Princess Celestia, and a whole lot more. Neo looked up changelings and the computer said that a changeling is a shapeshifter that feeds off of love energy, he had a feeling that this Queen Chrysalis was the perpetrator who was behind this. As Neo kept looking at the records, he heard a voice behind say, "Who goes there?"
Neo looked behind him and saw it was Princess Luna, she calmed down when she saw it was Neo, but then she gently said to him, "Oh Neo it's you, why are you still up this late and what are you doing in here?" At first Neo was nervous to tell her, he thought Luna might throw him in a dungeon or report what he was doing, Luna noticed his computer and saw what he was looking at, she made a concerned look on her face and said, "Neo, what's going on?" Neo didn't answer, she went easy on him and she could tell he was worried about something and said, "Please tell me, don't be afraid to talk to me my dear, you can trust me, now please tell me what's going on?" Neo was silent for a second, then he said, "Luna, who is Queen Chrysalis?" Luna wondered why he was asking her that, but she said, "She's an evil queen of an army known as changelings, she has caused a lot of trouble in the past, she even tried to overthrow my sister years ago, why do you ask?" Neo had to confide in Luna and trust her with what he was about to tell her, Luna said, "Neo, please tell me what's going on, do you know I something I don't?" Neo said, "Luna, do you trust me?" Luna said, "Of course I do." Neo said, "Can you keep a secret?" Luna was worried, but she said, "Neo, please tell me what's going on, if there is something you need to tell me, then please tell me."
Neo said, "Luna, I've got a feeling that Canterlot is already in danger." Luna said, "But how, I've been guarding the night for hours, I haven't seen anything unusual, Neo please tell what's going on, if you know something, please tell me." Neo sweated a little, even he was worried about what was going on, Luna tried to comfort him and she persuaded him to tell her what he knew. Neo said, "Luna, this wedding cannot happen." Luna said, "What, what are you talking about?" Neo said, "If this wedding happens as planned, all of Canterlot will be in danger." Luna was confused but she gently said, "Neo, just tell me what you know, you can tell me anything, I'm listening." Then Neo said, "That princess that Shining Armor is about to marry, it's not Princess Cadence." Luna said, "What are you talking about?" Neo said, "Luna please listen." Luna said, "I'm sorry, please go on." Neo said, "Since I met Cadence, I've had very bad feelings about her, every time she's around, something inside me tells me that there is danger around me, as if she was evil." Luna was shocked, but she said, "Go on." Neo said, "Luna, I'm telling you that the princess Shining Armor is about to marry isn't Princess Cadence, it's Queen Chrysalis in disguise, I know it's true." Luna said, "How do you know all this?" Neo said, "Twilight told me all about Cadence when we came here to prepare for the wedding, but since I met her, she hasn't been at all like the Cadence that Twilight described, and I even have footage of her hypnotizing Shining Armor, I'm telling you the truth, Princess Cadence is Queen Chrysalis."
Luna was silent for a second, Neo was looking right into her eyes and he said, "You believe me, don't you?" Luna looked into his eyes, Luna knew that Neo wouldn't lie to her about something like this, and he wanted to protect Canterlot from harm just as much as she did, so she smiled and said, "I believe you Neo." She hugged him in a caring way, showing him that she loved him and she trusted him with her heart, the she said, "But how do you all of this?" Neo said, "I'm psychic." Luna was surprised, she knew what that meant, then he said, "And I know that Cadence has done something to Twilight because I felt her, and she was in danger." Luna said, "Oh Neo, you and Twilight are such good friends, you have a strong bond with her, you have strong instincts that let you know when your friends are danger, and that is true friendship, my sister would be so proud of you, and I am very proud of you." Neo said, "Thank you Luna, can you keep this a secret for now?" Luna said, "But why, my sister must know what is going on." Neo said, "No Luna, we can't let this out right now, if this gets out, panic will spread all around Canterlot and probably all of Equestria, and we can't let that happen, I have to wait for the right time to confront Queen Chrysalis."
Luna understood what he was saying and she didn't want to cause a panic around Equestria, so she said, "Yes, I understand my love, I'll keep your secret, I promise." Neo said, "Thank you Luna, you truly are a wonderful princess, I love you so much." Neo gave her a hug, she gently hugged him back and she wrapped her wing around him, as they hugged, Neo said, "Don't worry Luna, I won't let anything bad happen to Canterlot, or any of Equestria, I will protect Equestria with my life." Luna said, "Oh Neo, you're a true hero, and you're my hero, you are a wonderful and brave boy, and I believe in you." Neo and Luna shared a sweet moment of love and trust, then Luna told Neo he should get some sleep and she must continue to guard the night, she took Neo back to his room, told him goodnight, wished him sweet dreams and good luck for stopping Queen Chrysalis, and she gave him a kiss on the cheek. Then she went out to the balcony to guard the night.
But before Neo went to bed, he took out a cellphone and made a phone call. A voice answered the phone, Neo said, "Listen, I have a job for you." The voice said something, then Neo said, "Never mind what it's about, I'll send you information, I need you and a few guys to come to Equestria, we're going to catch a criminal, I need you and a few men to be here tomorrow morning to intercept." The voice listened to the information and said he would be there with a few men to intercept, he sent the information to the person about the wedding and what his plan was, then Neo hung up and said, "Queen Chrysalis, you're going down."
