Chapter 1: The ´Mare´ - Soulmelody

Disclaimer: I do not own My little Pony. MLP is owned by Hasbro. I only own my OC.

…Surrounded by darkness…nothing around me. I feel like I am flying through a void. Open my eyes, but there is just blackness and nothingness. I can´t see, hear or feel anything. "What is this place?" I wondered, feeling weak like a foal again…imprisoned in this dark cell…Seeking for any kind of company...After, what feels like hours of gliding through the darkness, I spotted a source of light. Nothing more than a little sparks... What is that? I tried to glide towards it, but failed. I couldn't influence the path I was heading. Suddenly there were sounds. They were barely audible though, but it sounded like…music like this old classical buck that the older pony or these frickin´ aristocrats in Canterlot listen too. Like stuck in a void of nothingness wouldn't suck enough, I´m know stuck in a void of nothingness while listen to bucking classical music... Wait! I…remember something…this music…this unique play style…I remember it...it ´s familiar… I often heard it back in Canterlot when I visited it with my parents. Though I normally dislike this high society crap, this was different. It was…beautiful. "But why do I hear it here again? " I thought. "Where exactly did I hear it before?" Suddenly I muster something among the music notes that wrapped around me. It was a voice...But this voice…seemed familiar…too familiar...

….

….

….

"WAKE UP YOU PLOTHOLE OF A WANNABEE GENARAL!"

"AHH!" I screamed as my eyes immediately shot open. Unfortunate for me…I screamed it out in a high pitch pussy voice. I jumped up from my bed and now hung upside down with all four of my hooves holding tightly at the ceiling with my fur standing up like a cat.

I heard laughter and saw Chrysalis laughing her plot off rolling over the floor. I deadpanned.

"That bitch…"

"The scream…too priceless!" she said between her laughter.

"Yeah, yeah whatever…" I sternly said as I flew down landing on the ground again.

"Why did you wake me up at the first place, Chrysie?" I looked out of the window just to see that the moon is still up there.

"It´s even still in the night, you moron of a bug!" I bluntly said towards Chrysalis with a sternly look.

"Hey, at least I woke you up in a more friendly way as I originally planned…you´re happy I didn't manage to find any acid that I could´ve pour over you."

"Love you too…"I sarcastically responded.

"So, now tell me the reason why you thought that it would be worth interrupting my sleep?"

"Sombra wants to talk with you…he got a mission for your General-Flank." She explained.

"Mission? What mission?" I asked.

"Classified. I´m not allowed talking about it in any other places, except the throne room. We don't want any chances that might the wrong kind of pony hear the details. If you want to find out you better follow me, my friend."

She said as she started to move towards the door. Before she reached the door she stopped.

"Oh almost forgot." She started, "I should do something first…"

"What are you doi- AH!" I was interrupted by the magical blast which Chrysie shot at me. A poison green aura surrounded me. Before my eye lids eventually closed and the blackness once again embraced me…

[One waking up scene in the throne room where the first thing was to mock at Chrysie for that magic-laser-beam and also a rough explanation from Sombra about my mission-later]

"…so…let me get this straight" I started, standing in front of Chrysie and Sombra. He was sitting on his throne and she standing beside it. His mistresses seemed to be gone. They are waiting in his private chamber I guess.

"I should go to Ponyville as a ´new resident´…"

"Yes." They responded with a nod.

"…and there I should befriend the bearer of the Elements…"

"Yes."

"…and try to get information about them, about the elements in generally and the princesses, epically this Twilight Sparkle because she´s the newest princess and you guys need more information about her… "

"Yes."

"…and every 13th moon I should write you a report where I sum up all information I managed to gather…"

"Yes."

"…and send that via bat, which you guys will send to me each said night, to you guys here in the Obsidian Empire..."

"Yes."

"Hm…ok...seems legit. Oh just one little-tiny-whiny-minor-thing…"

"Yes?"

I quick looked down at me one last time, and looked back up to them, and-

"WHY THE BUCK AM I A MARE?!"

Yeah, right, a mare. I was now a bucking mare. I had blue fluffy hair and tail. I still got my white coat but my wings have changed. They are normal Pegasus-Wings now. Also my eyes shape changed. They are not longer these badass predator-pupils like I had before, now they´re…normal…and girlish, but still neon-yellow though. On my forehoves I wore now bracelets with small dark blue gems in them. And my cutie mark…*sigh* that´s the worst thing. My super cool Soulfire cutie mark was replaced with…a microphone…and hearts…oh for buck sakes…I can literately feel my stallionity going…going…aaaaaand it's gone. Speaking of `stallionhood´…it´s weird to have nothing down there anymore…I miss my little pal.

"Well," Sombra started, "one reason is that that is a more reliable disguise than coloring your mane and fur. Secondly, being a mare brings you closer to the Element Bearers, and you can gain their trust faster like this if they see you as a fellow mare. Also, if another mare has contact with the Elements it´s less suspicious for Luna and Celestia, because your stallion appearance isn´t exactly want somepony would call ´average´, or ´friendly-looking".

Wait, did he just called me ugly?

"And lastly,…"

"It´s just hilarious, seeing you like that!" Chrysie interrupted with a grin while she tried to hold back a chuckle.

I deadpanned. "Go to Tatarus."

"D´aww. Don´t be like that. You are really cute now." She smirked while she walked around me to examine my new form.

"Don´t bucking push me on this."I said through my teeth.

"Oh my!" she said with an overdramatic acting while she cover her muzzle with her hoof in a shocked manner.

"Ms. Soulmelody, such language! That is certainly not the appropriate behavior for a lady like you!"

"…"

I raised an eyebrow. "And since when are you one?"

Chrysie slapped me with her hoof.

"OUCH!"

"Oh shut the buck up!" she growled.

"Speaking of an appropriate language..." I thought. "But wait…"

"…´Soulmelody´?" I asked them with a confused look.

"Your Spy-Name." Sombra explained.

"Makes sense I guess."

"So do you accept this important mission, General Soulfire?"

I put my hoof up to my chest.

"I, General Soulfire Blaze, hereby accept the mission you rely on me.

Deception, Sorrow, Hatred. To combine those and slay the slaves of the light with it is The Way of the Black Crystal." I proudly announced with the official vow of the Obsidian Empire.

A mischievous smile crossed Sombra´s face.

"But there is still one problem left." I said.

"And what would that be?"

"Even if the name ´Soulmelody` sounds cute and all…I still sound like a dude!" That was the problem. I still had the voice of mine original form. Even though I may not had the deepest voice, but still sounded like a stallion.

Sombra slightly raised an eyebrow.

"What do you mean?" he asked.

"Let me explain…" Chrysalis interrupted. "You see, for you it might sound like you are talking with your normal voice, but for everyone else you have a feminine voice."

"What?" I responded, looking at Chrysie as if she were crazy.

She nodded. "Your new voice just isn't audible for you but everypony else."

"So , for myself I still sound like before, but for everyone else I have a mareish voice?"

"Yes."

"That's handy." I thought.

Still, becoming a mare from one second to another is just weird. I still have some rights as pony being! Oh wait, evil overlord. Forgot it. Hm…so Ponyville will be my next destination and also for quite some time a place to stay. Well at least the mission is simple. Just go into town, find the element bearers, befriend them and gather all the information. However, I have to be cautious when the Element of Honesty is around. She´ll maybe see through my lies. Hm...The others won't be such a problem, well besides the Element of Loyalty. She should be really stubborn one and suspicious against strangers. I need to play out my cards in the right order or I´ll screw up the mission. First I should come up with a false background story. *sigh* I never were the creative one…wait, was Sombra talking all the time?

"…and that would be your background story if anyone asks for it. You got that all? Good. Chrysalis, get ready for the immediately teleportation to Ponyville for ´Soulmelody ´ in…"

...wat?

"…3..."

"…2…"

"…1…"

Wait what?!

"Fire!" he commanded and Chrysie shot a magic beam directly at me.

I closed my eyes and covered them with my hooves when the beam hit me. It felt like being torn apart at first. Your whole Body gets stretched and curled up, and your entrails get shaken to all directions. It feels like being torn apart and then slammed back together while a pain similar to an electricity shock runs through your whole body and before you ask, YES, it does hurt like a bitch. Through your entire body, like – Celestia shoves her 11 Inches long Allicorn horn so far up your ass that you can like its top with your tongue. Thankfully, that torment ended after a few seconds, just before I landed face first into the dirt.

"…Ow…my…everything…" I grumbled in agony. However, what surprised me was that the pain just disappeared after a few seconds. Hey, I don't know why, but I´ll take it!

As I finally managed to get up, I shook my head and cleaned my coat and looked around where I landed. I could see a lot of houses and a lot of pony with friendly smiles on their faces. It didn't take me long to realize where I now was…the place where everything is rainbow and cotton candy…

…Ponyville…

…oh buck my life…
