Cadance had told the Crystal ponies and the shocking news, stunned them with disbelief. the ones most shocked were the Mane 6 and Starlight and Discord.
the ponies would argue and say Spike was a traitor or he was brainwashed, these event's all happened when the Crystal Empire sent the paper.
hours earlier.
Ponies in Ponyville were doing their things until the mail came.
Rarity's home and work, Rarity was working when Sweetie Belle came in with a paper in her magic and looked rather bother,
"Why Sweetie Belle why you look so distraught?" Rarity asked, Sweetie showed her the paper and she gasped with disbelief.

the words said.
friend or enemy
"Shocking news stuns Crystal ponies, the famed hero that Crystal ponies idealized is actually A Traitor, the facts are vague but Spike the Brave and Glorious sides with an changeling and helps the enemy escape".
At Rainbow Dash's home she readed it with shock.
"Not possible" she said.
In Pinkie's home
"Noway" she spoke mane deflating.
at Fluttershy's hut Discord was holding her as she crying with horror, Discord was just as shocked, somedragon he goes with for guys night betrayed his friends by siding with one of their enemies.
finally at Applejack's farm, she locked herself in her room, she was saying over and over "It can't be so, just not possible, must be ah mistake" one point a lone tear slid down her face from the shock and disbelief from what her little sister showed her.
They all met up in gloomy moods waiting for Twilight and Starlight
later the train arrived, Twilight and Starlight walked off with sad looks, the mane 5 were immediately in their faces.
"Twilight please tell us it ain't true" Applejack pleaded, Twilight just looked at them with tears falling down.
"It's true Spike sided with a changeling and when we exiled the changeling, he exiled himself" Twilight replied with grief in her voice, Then a flash appeared and Celestia and Luna appeared.
"Canterlot is in dismay, what happened?" Luna demanded.
"Spike has turned against us, he sided with a changeling" Twilight replied "We thought it was brainwash but when we blocked the insects magic, he defended it saying "His actions were his own"" she said.
"This is most troubling" Celestia replied.
"Something weird happened when Spike, breathed his fire at the guards they turned into blue the power from it knocked Spike out and left a huge burn't floor where he breathed at" Starlight spoke up, Celestia processed this, and her face turned way below her normal white face, it turned a ghostly white as she gasped with terror and she stumbled back and slumped against a wall heavily.
The 7 ponies and Discord looked at her with, because they have never saw fear in the Solar Alicorns eyes, but they were filled with terror in her eyes.
"Whats wrong I know Spike turning against us is horrible, but why so spooked?" Twilight asked her mentor.
"Blue fire, then that means Spikes abilities has wakened, that means terrible things will acre" Celestia got out "Where is Spike now?" she asked.
"He's in The Badlands" Twilight spoke sadly.
"Why in tarnation is he there, in that place of all the places he would go, why is he' there?" Applejack demanded.
"Yeah why is Spikey in that awful place?" Rarity asked.
"We exiled the Changeling to The Badlands and Spike went with him" Twilight told them.
"If Spike is with a Changeling then that means, the changeling must of made Spike see and unlock he's mystical power, it's twisting Spike into an enemy and with Spikes natural abilities and the changelings illusions, they will be a threat nopony can stop" Celestia explained.
"I don't know why your suddenly so petrified but why would you think Spike as mystical powers?" Rainbow asked.
"Because he is a rare and powerful race of dragons, Spike can breath the hottest fire which is blue, Spike's a Mystic Dragon but has both magic and mystic powers" Celestia said.
"How powerful?" Starlight asked.
"A minor god like Discord or like you and Luna?" Fluttershy asked.
"Luna and I are Diarches were ageless since we are tied to the sun and moon, Discord is a demigod and is immortal, Spike is a minor god and is also immortal" Celestia told them.
"ho Nelly" Applejack gaped.
"my goodness" Fluttershy gasped the other mares were stunned by this.
"We need to find that insect and destroy it before Spike's mystic and magic is awake fully" Celestia ordered.
"I'll do it" Twilight said grimly "The bug warped my little brother and friends mind, it will pay" she said.
"but do make it painless and quick" Celestia told her.
