Hey guys here's the next chapter. Hope you guys enjoy it!

Envy IV

It had been a couple of days since Pride managed to defeat his predecessor. After the fight Pride kinda went into a magic induced coma as his Sin powers began to heal him. Naturally we were all able to do this but we had never been put into the position to do so.

Right now the Sin's, the Element's, and the Princesses were in Pride's room waiting for him to wake up.

Cadence and Twilight were a complete mess at the moment. I would be to if I had just found out that my brother, or in Cadence's case husband, was actually an evil being straight from birth and everything he ever did was just an act.

Twilight at least had Sloth her coltfriend for comfort. All Cadence had was her aunts. I really felt for the girl just like all of the other's. We all wished we could do something for the crystal princess but we didn't know what.

Chrysalis was lightly snoring on my lap while Greed sat next to me with Vinyl and Pinkie sitting on his lap with their heads resting on his shoulders.

"This sucks Greed. Will we have to kill everyone possessed by a Sin? I mean killing Shinning was different because he was Pride the entire time and was only acting. But not all of the others could have surfaced like that. What do we do then, can we save them?"

Greed looked down in thought for a second before looking me in the eyes. He looked so fed up with what was going on that it surprised me. He was someone I looked up to like a big brother and he never was so fed up about anything.

"I don't know Envy. The truth is nothing is certain until we find the other Sin's. But what I do know is that after this last encounter that we are ill prepared to face our predecessors and that needs to change and fast."

After saying his peace he tapped the mares on his lap on their shoulders and as if they hadn't been sleeping at all got up and stood to either side of him as he to stood up. This drew everyone's attention to him.

"I want everyone who doesn't know about internal Sin matter's out of here now save for Cadence."

Some of them began to try and protest but Greed's growl quickly stopped them and they all left.

When all of them had left the room Greed walked to the door and using his claw carved a set of runes I recognized as a blood message rune. He must be trying to contact our Lady.

As soon as he finished the rune a figure of our lady made out of blood formed in the middle of the room.

"I take it you have disposed of the Sin in the crystal empire?"

"Yes we have my lady," answered Greed.

"Care to tell me what happened?"

Greed then went on to explain everything that happened and when he told her of Pride's current position she grew worried and sad. I could see why since she saw us as her children and we in a sense saw her as a mother.

"I see. Then you must train in order to combat the other Sin's. But may I ask why is the crystal princess at this meeting?"

Everyone looked at Greed curiously wondering the same thing. Why was she here?"

"My Lady I would like to make a request not as a Sin, or as a servant but as a son."

That threw us all for a loop. Greed never asked favors from anyone not even our Lady.

"Well. What may that be Talon?"

Oh man she is serious now. She only calls us by our true names if she is serious.

" I want you to train Cadence as your personal advisor."

Cue the jaws hitting the ground. No one could have ever seen that one coming. Hell even our Lady was surprised by his request.

It took a little bit but our Lady was finally able to speak, "ok Talon why do you want this? This isn't like you to stick your neck out for other's you barely know."

He didn't say anything for a second but when he did all he said was, "Scaleshine."

Now I had no clue who or what Scaleshine was but apparently our Lady did and she nodded in acceptance as if she was expecting this answer.

"Alright then. Princess Cadence would you agree to be my advisor?"

She didn't even hesitate when she agreed with a nod of her head. I looked to Greed silently asking why he did this but his look said we would talk later.

As soon as Cadence agreed she was covered in a red light and when it died down we were greeted to the sight of a completely changed Cadence.

Her coat was now blood red with her mane now completely black and a lot more wild then before. Her teeth now were sharpened and her eye's became slitted. The only thing unchanged about her was her cutie mark.

"Now if that is all I must be off with my new advisor so I can tell her what is expected of her."

With that our Lady and Cadence disappeared in dual balls of fire.

"Okay? Now what do we do," asked Gluttony.

Sloth decided to step up, "I think I have a few idea's. First I think we should get to training as soon as Pride wakes up. We should also take our charges with us since they could also use the training. Second we should have Envy's best changelings spread out and look for any signs of who and where the other original Sin's may be."

"In other words it's time to step up our game."

We turned towards the voice and saw Pride awake with a smile on his face.

"PRIDE! You selfish bastard you had us worried," exclaimed Wrath.

"Yeah and I'm sorry about that but right now I think we should go with braincases plan. It's our best bet at the moment."

Nodding our heads in agreement I set off to get my changelings ready for the mission I was sending them on.

Things have just gotten a lot more tense. But when we meet another one of the Sin's we will be ready.

Well there is the next chapter guys. Hope you like what I did with Cadence. Review and/or Pm me. Until then, Nicranger out.
