CHAPTER TWENTY EIGHT MUST ESCAPE Part 1

(Crystal's poverty)

I looked around and I was trapped in a cave!

" Hello? Is anyone there?" I asked. I heard laughter, evil laughter." Where am I?"

"The caves beneath Canterlot, once home to greedy unicorns who wanted to claim the gems that could be found inside. And now, your prison." Said Fluttershy as she appeared at a rock.

"Help! Help!" I shouted. She laughed.

"It's no use. No one can hear you. And no one will ever think to look for you, either. Most ponies have forgotten that these caves even exist, which is why they are the ideal place to keep the ones who try to interfere with my plans." Said Fluttershy. She laughed once more.

"Plans? What plans?" I asked.

"The plans I have for your brother, of course." She said.

" Don't you dare do anything to my brother, you... you monster!" I shouted.

"Only way to stop me is to catch me!" I used my magic as she laughed. She was on the ceiling and I shot it, but it bounces back to me."Over here! Nope, over here!"

I broke a stone and found Fluttershy. I growled.

"No! Wait!" Said Fluttershy. I tackled her."Ugh! Please! Don't hurt me! Crystal, it's me! Please, you have to believe me. I've been imprisoned like you. The Fluttershy who brought you down here was an imposter."

"Likely story!" I said.

"Hush now,quiet now, it's time to lay your sleepy heads. Hush now, quiet now it's time to go to bed," sanged Fluttershy. I looked at her and smiled.

"Fluttershy!" I said as I hugged her.

"Crystal," said Fluttershy. We heard laughter, an evil one.

" We have to get out of here. We have to stop her!" I said.

[Queen Chrysalis]
This day is going to be perfect
The kind of day of which I've dreamed since I was small
Everypony will gather 'round
Say I look lovely in my gown
What they don't know is that I have fooled them all!

[Fluttershy]
This day was going to be perfect
The kind of day of which I've dreamed since I was small
But instead of having cake
With all my friends to celebrate
My wedding bells, they may not ring for me at all…

[Queen Chrysalis]
I could care less about the dress
I won't partake in any cake
Vows, well I'll be lying when I say
That through any kind of weather
I'll want us to be together
The truth is I don't care for him at all
No I do not love the groom
In my heart there is no room
But I still want him to be all mine

[Fluttershy]
We must escape before it's too late
Find a way to save the day
Hope, I'll be lying if I say
I don't fear that I may lose him
To one who wants to use him
Not care for, love, and cherish him each day
For I oh so love the groom
All my thoughts he does consume
Oh, darling Cole, I'll be there very soon

[Queen Chrysalis]
Finally the moment has arrived
For me to be one lucky bride

[Fluttershy]
Oh, the wedding we won't make
He'll end up marrying a fake
Sweetie Cole will be…

[Queen Chrysalis]:
…mine, all mine. [evil laugh]

Feb 28We pressed our ears on the stone wall.
"Mares and gentlecolts, we are gathered here today to witness the union of Fluttershy and Cole."

"Oh, we're never going to save him." Said Fluttershy,

"We will. We just have to find... There!" I said.

Then,Minuette, Lyra Heartstrings, and Twinkleshine came and said,"You're not going anywhere."

" Fluttershy and Cole, it is my great pleasure to pronounce you–"

" Stop!" I shouted as I entered.

"Ugh! Why does she have to be so possessive of her brother?" Asked this fake Fluttershy. She began sobbing."Why does she have to ruin my special day?"

"Because it's not your special day! It's mine!" Said Fluttershy as she step inside. The ponies gasp.

"What? But how did you escape my bridesmaids?" Asked The fake Fluttershy.

[Flashback]

We stepped back and Fluttershy found a flower. She threw it to another direction.
Minuette, Lyra Heartstrings, and Twinkleshine said,

"I want it!"

[End flashback]

Hmph. Clever. But you're still too late." Said fake Fluttershy.

"I-I don't understand. How can there be two of 'em?" Asked Aj.

"She's a changeling. She takes the form of somepony you love and gains power by feeding off your love for them." I said.

"I don't understand, I thought we defeated The changelings." Said Twilight.

"True, you did defeat the changelings, but you did not banish them!" I said. Everyone gasped. Then,fake Fluttershy became Queen Chysalis. Everyone gasped again. She just laughed

"Right you are, Crystal. And as queen of the changelings, it is up to me to find food for my subjects. Equestria has more love than any place I've ever encountered. My fellow changelings will be able to devour so much of it that we will gain more power than we have ever dreamed of!" Said Queen Chrysalis.

"They'll never get the chance! Cole's protection spell will keep them from ever even reaching us!" I said.

" Oh, I doubt that. Isn't that right, dear?" Asked The queen.

"Mm-hmm." Said Cole, nodding. Fluttershy gasped and ran fowarded and Chryalis stomped a hoof and prepared a magic.

"Ah, ah, ah. Don't want to go back to the caves, now do you?" Asked the queen. Fluttershy stepped back." Ever since I took your place, I've been feeding off Cole's love for you. Every moment he grows weaker and so does his spell. He may not be my husband, but he is under my total control now."

We gasped.

"And I'm sorry to say, unable to perform his duties as a karate master." Said Queen Chrysalis.

"Not my Cole!" Fluttershy said.

" Soon, my changeling army will break through. First, we take Canterlot. And then, all of Equestria!" Said the queen.

"No. You won't. You may have made it impossible for Cole to perform his spell, but now that you have so foolishly revealed your true self, I can protect my subjects from you!" Said Princess Celestia. They performed a spell and Chrysalis defeated princess Celestia!

"Princess Celestia!" We all shouted as we hurried to her.

" Ah! Cole's love for you is even stronger than I thought! Consuming it has made me even more powerful than Celestia!"

"The Elements of Harmony. You must get to them and use their power to defeat the queen." Celestia said.

We all hurried outside inculding Fluttershy.

"You can run, but you can't hide!"

" Go, go!" I said.

"Looks like we're gonna have to do this the hard way." Said Rainbow. She turned and found two Twilights." How did you...?"

" They're changelings, remember?" Twilight said.

"They're changelings, remember?" Said the changelings imitating Twilight.

"Don't let them distract you. We have to get to the Elements of Harmony. They're our only hope." I said. Zane, Jay, Kai, and Nya came just in time and helped us.

We finally defeated the changelings and came inside. We are surrounded by the changlings and were brought back to the wedding room.

" You won't get away with this! Twilight and her friends will–" Florentinshy stopped.

The door opens and we came inside.

"You were saying? You do realize the reception's been cancelled, don't you? Go! Feed!" Said Queen Chrysalis.

The door close.

"It's funny, really. Crystal here was suspicious of my behavior all along. Too bad the rest of you were too caught up in your wedding planning to realize those suspicions were correct!" Said the queen.

Sorry, Crystal. We should've listened to you." Aj said.

" It's not your fault. She fooled everypony." I said.

"Hmm, I did, didn't I?" Asked Queen Chrysalis.

"This day has been just perfect
The kind of day of which I've dreamed since I was small
Everypony I'll soon control
Every stallion, mare, and foal
Who says a girl can't really have it all?" Sanged Chrysalis.

Fluttershy walked to Cole and kissed him. It turned Cole back to normal.

"Wha– where... huh? Is...is the wedding over?" Asked Cole.

" It's all over!" Said Queen Chrysalis.

"Your spell! Perform your spell!" I said.

"What good would that do? My changelings already roam free" Said Chrysalis.

" No! My power is useless now. I don't have the strength to repel them." said Cole.

"Our song will give you strength." Fluttershy said.
" What a lovely but absolutely ridiculous sentiment." Said Chrysalis.

[Fluttershy]

I kept doing my work
But in the inside, I felt alone
Even when I have friends, animals
But love was missing inside me

[Cole]
I usually felt the same
I look into the stars above
No matter who I am, I don't care
All I care is you
All I care is my family
All I care is love
[Fluttershy and Cole]
When we look into each eyes, we finally felt the moment released
When I'm hurt, you'll always comfort me
And we'll sing a love song, together and ever
We'll always be together, when we face hard times
You'll be with me, whenever I am alone
I can trust you, no matter hard times we face
All I care is you, all I care is you
All I care, is you

Their bodies began to glow and magic is surging. Their hooves touch as their wings touched. Queen Chrysalis looked at them.

" Noooooo!" Shouted Queen Chrysalis. The magic blew all the changelings into thin air.

"Don't worry about me. I'm fine. You have a real wedding to put together." Said Princess Celestia as I helped her. (a/n review if you was singing the song this day is going to be perfect )
