a canterlot wedding twilight betrayed fanfiction

Was the collective response from the gathered war room personnel. You're not the only pony who's having a rough time. In fact, she looked about the same as Pinkie. I was only doing what I thought was right. "Girls, remember what you learned. Celestia had to face facts; everything that happened and everything that was going to happen was brought on by herself, Shining Armor and the Mane 5. Apparently, the Bearer of Magic has distanced herself from her friends, convinced they had betrayed her and left her to die by my hooves. As Celestia continued questioning Luna on her absence during the battle against the Changelings, Shining (who was standing away from them next to the throne room's massive doors) was getting anxious. "May I get you anything?" An army of beings known as Changelings stormed the city, injuring many of our citizens and Royal Guards, while also harvesting their love for their own ends. There were no villagers though. Shining proceeded to tell his parents of the events of the rehearsal, doing his utmost to retain his composure. Not only was this the most important moment of the Mane 5's lives, but it was quite possibly the most important moment in Equestrian history. After throwing the doors open and shut with her magic, the lavender unicorn threw herself on her bed, crying every fibre of her pain out of her. What do you think of that sir? Criminals, thugs, dissidents and individuals who resent the treasured Equestrian values of friendship and harmony. Cadance headed back to the library to help Twilight and Spike cool off, Rainbow went back to her cloud house in Cloudsdale, the mission to repair the broken bond with Twilight stuck firmly in her mind. ", "No, it's OK. However, that mattered little now, as she too was about to receive the brunt of Spike's fury. It bore one of her greatest and most nostalgic hallmarks; a caring, sympathetic smile. I just..". "Major Shroud! Worse still, she couldn't comprehend just how little she cared for Twilight, compared to the amount of love and attention she gives to her animal friends daily. Fluttershy returned to her cottage and carried on her duties to her animal friends but all the while, she thought about Twilight and how much she had been hurt behind her and the others' backs. Ever since that Nightmare Night when Twilight restored her relationship with the citizens of Ponyville, Luna knew and recognized the fact that Twilight was nothing short of respectable, honorable and a true friend, deserving of everything she had achieved to this point. "Surrender? This time, she would show no mercy. You have not only brought shame to our family Applejack, but you have brought shame on yourself and your Element. Even if she had managed to find an answer, it didn't matter anyway. It was fortunate enough that Cadance already had Twilight's trust, given that she had no part in the betrayal, but she still had to ensure the latter was convinced enough to let the Mane 5 be heard. Alkaios! Just thinking about her down in the caves, cold, heartbroken, alone and dying while they were all caught up in the happiness of the false wedding and then Chrysalis taking over and her army wreaking havoc across Equestria, especially Ponyville, without their best friend to help stop their greatest enemy brought tears of shame to her eyes. Celestia did mention something about betraying somepony when she was crying in the former's embrace, but it was only after she put two and two together did she see the horrible picture that was painted in her mind. The Mane 5, with Cadance in tow, entered the main room of the library. "Pleaseplease don't leave me" Whimpered Twilight, still suffering from the intense effects her memories were forcing upon her. If it was any consolation, although she did not know it at the time, Applejack was not the only one experiencing a restless night. Without them, they cannot corrupt a host, hence why Twilight did not fall victim to their temptations. The part that struck them the hardest was when he scornfully scolded Twilight and cut her off from his life, Twilight's friends leaving her to melt into a puddle of misery and Princess Celestia stabbing the final dagger into her heart by saying what she said. "Twilight and Spike left, my bride hates me and called off the wedding and now I'm left to wonder if I really deserve to be Captain of the Royal Guard and be with Twilightmy LSBFF, the pony I loved so much and missed every day before she returned". Furthermore, we find it impossible to understand how the group failed to grasp the realization that Twilight had a very close and personal relationship with Cadance, something that we are very keenly aware of, and therefore could not connect the dots that would have exposed the usurper from her veil. "Ok men, engage your disguises. "Princess, it's getting late. She considered herself a hypocrite for having taught Twilight all those lessons about friendship and magic, only to show nothing by herself. "Eeyup, there ain't nothing in Equestria that's going to break this shield." Yet another price had been paid for their mistake, and one that was very, very costly. At present, Luna could sense that the Sparkle parents were distressed and angry. She will be painted matte white and Celestia themed. Furthermore, she did also upset the bride, my niece. The Mane 5's ears collectively drooped in disappointment. The tale that Celestia was spinning before her was intriguing her more and more. Asked Twilight from inside. However, Cadance sensed there was something off about the shield. "Now, about these underground tunnels, I think it would be most helpful if a lot of ponies in Canterlot knew about them. All three had very well-developed and clever minds, which could use the full capabilities of their respective species to full advantage. Instead, she opted for a conciliatory defeat. Whatever my sister asks of me, I will not hesitate to fulfill.". That much was clear to the lot of them. "Cadance, is there anything else you wish to tell me?". How are we gonna be friends with her again if we can't forgive ourselves?!". It's not like she didn't make that clear after we defeated Chrysalis" Added Rainbow in annoyance. To be precise, the only traceable source of conflict to be found in Equestriawas in my heart.". "Instead of waiting outside the city to attack, our forces will infiltrate the city in disguise en masse, and blend in with the locals. "You may see her, young Spike, but take heed. "That is true, but here's the thing Granny Smith." She was still very ticked off at the Mane 5, not just because they were invading her space, but also because she couldn't trust them to walk out on her again. Replied the four guards in unison, following Shining down the hall as he trotted ahead of them. If you'd allow me, I will describe it to you in detail.". Turning to the girls, she decided to test them, in order to prepare them for what they were about to face. A small part of the pink alicorn was disappointed about the lack of a hoofshake, but it was completely understandable. Unfortunately, in his haste to leave, he wasn't prepared for what came next. "I can't believe ANY of you! ", "Either way Son, you have shamed your family." That was the question burdening Applejack's mind, however. "I don't know what happened after that because we were ordered out of the hall by the Royal Guard, but I have every faith that Twilight played a part in the victory over the changelings. Almost instantly, Blade returned to the throne room, always ready and eager to serve his queen. "Equestria becomes defenseless." Added Shining, the proverbial dots joining together as he spoke. Returning to the matter at hoof, Twilight spoke up next. "Your Majesty, we have created a new plan formed from the coordinates of the previous assault on Canterlot." The memories of that dreadful episode of her life were rushing back into her mind. Replied Twilight, who lay down on her hindlegs as she crossed her forelegs under her head. Spike bowed his head, fearing whatever reaction he'd get from Twilight. Behind them, the guards closed the doors to her private quarters, before following after them. Her throne possessed the ability to channel the love from her prisoners into her body, giving her extra magic power and increased strength, a much needed boost considering the toll Cadance and Shining's spell took on her. "You really are my best friend Spike. It is I who should be remorseful and ashamed.". Now, I want the prisoners, all the prisoners, to be rehabilitated. He didn't like leaving Twilight so broken, but he didn't want to be cast out of the wedding either. But in order to keep up appearances, she smiled warmly. With little hesitation, Shining followed Celestia through the doors, the guards saluting as she went. Spike looked back at the girls, angered. Celestia will retaliate, and it will be her intent to destroy us as a force once and for all. ", "But they shouldn't be here in the first place Cadance! "She bewitched her Smartypants doll with a Want It Need It spell which made half of Ponyville, including Big Mac, Applebloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo rip each other apart trying to get it. "Well, why would she do it? Suddenly, the hall's doors opened to reveal Cadance, who had come bearing news for Celestia. Had the circumstances been any different, I would've happily stayed with you, but..you know. You all were.". I failed the Element of Kindness because I failed to show you any compassion. Surely they won't allow themselves to be defeated as easily as last time! The Changeling Queen later returned to dispose of her by sealing her in the caves beneath the castle, so as to ensure she would not meddle with her plans again. Follow us Did they really have the matter under control, or were they too caught up in the wedding to remember what was at stake? "Well, if you're lookin' at apologizing a third time, it better be pretty darn good! With little hesitation, the yellow pegasus embraced Twilight in a hug, silencing any further sobbing. The only reason we supported the wedding was so we can welcome Cadence, ours and Celestias own foalsitter and niece into the Sparkle family. Stepping through them was Spike. As the days passed, and my hopes turned into bitterness, you ignored it for the limelight, leaving me to succumb to my demons. Luna's remark made the couple raise their brows in surprise. I have to be elsewhere, so I must make my stay here as brief as possible. She must know that her resignation spells doom for Equestria and life as we know it". Still, it needed to be done, and the stallion knew he could not forsake priorities for his own wellbeing. ", "Of course they do Twilight, that's why they're here. As for Celestia, even though her mane still billowed proudly from her scalp, she looked very forlorn and remorseful. Twilight didn't see this though, Midnight kept her gaze forward and Twilight was far too concerned with Midnight's destination. "I guess I didn't sleep well last night. Said Fluttershy. This time, there can be no resistance to the might of the Changelings. May I come in?". The valley through which the convoy walked was dotted with rocks and boulders of all shapes and sizes, with the surrounding mountains acting as a perimeter wall which surrounded the hive. Indeed, it was rock solid. ", "Just a few scars" Replied Chrysalis. I just didn't think that what I did would hurt her so badly. "That is a question I am tormented with every day ma'am." Cadance replied calmly. To top it all off, there was an overbearing and very heavy feeling of speechlessness and regret hanging over the room. The Changeling Queen took her place at the top of the table, flanked by her loyal general. Interestingly enough, neither Granny Smith nor Big Mac were anywhere to be seen, but that mattered little to Applejack. If no resolution could be reached, fighting could then begin. What he got instead was nowhere near what he was expecting: a hug. But now, the teacher who had taught her student so much about magic and friendship simply walks out on her, as did her brother and friends when all she was trying to do was save them from a terrible fate? "Let's go home Spike. "I.Oh Luna.I don't know why we left her. As soon as they got into formation, they broke into a canter, making haste for Luna's private quarters. Yelled Rainbow, who proceeded to charge the shield at lightspeed. It was making her apprehensive, but her overall mood was not shaken. Could this be the most important moment in our lives? Applejack could only look at her with a face that bore a very clear expression of horror. My Little Pony Friendship is Magic What If? Sobbed Celestia. Yelled a voice from outside the door. Rarity had a point; Twilight did upset the bride, even though she was an impostor. With that, Luna walked out the household door, before spreading her wings and taking off into the darkness, the moon (which she had lifted prior to flying to the Sparkle family home) lighting the way ahead. With a "mmph" of configuration, she smiled at Luna once more. She may not be happy to see you, but if I know her, she will forgive you. "So Sugarcube, will y'have us as friends again?". Not forgetting her strong sense of generosity, she decided to offer Cadance somewhere to sleep for the night. Please forgive me.". How could they have no patience for their best friend the one time she was in the wrong, after all the times she helped them with their mistakes? Fer that, I will never forgive myself. Once the locomotive had reached a complete stop, the duo disembarked, bypassing the station building before heading towards the Golden Oaks Library. ", "Yeah..I guess." Fluttershy said before yawning mid-sentence. ", "It even got to the point where Twilight had to make a problem herself." Twilight was ravin' about Cadence being an impostor and repeatedly called her evil, which made her cry. Glaring into it, the flame produced a vision of Twilight in her library, reading through the lumps of friendship reports she and her former best friends had written over the months. Twilight was somewhere out there, hurt, alone, and for all he knew, lost. Replied the alabaster unicorn. "I'm sorry Rarity, but it seems Twilight was right. "Yes, Princess," said Twilight with concern. Because of your foolishness, our dear Twilight will be lost. The greatest evidence of a life-changing event is one's memories, and at the present time, the memory in Shining's head was fresher than a baker's dozen from Sugarcube Corner. You believed that she was the perfect protege, and thus you took her under your wing in order to help her realize that potential. "Now, we are aware that at this point, the Canterlot Royal Guard will come out of the castle en masse and attempt to form a defensive perimeter around the castle walls and entrance. "I am sure you do not need an explanation as to my sadness, Captain Armor. For Celestia and the Mane 5, this was very grave news. This was made worse with the memories of Fake Cadance sending her into the depths of the Canterlot Caves through a ring of burning green flames, followed by the former taunting Twilight about how nopony would think to look for her, considering nopony even knew the caves existed, and topping all of this was the memory of Twilight finding the real Cadance. Celestia screamed in her Royal Canterlot Voice as she woke. Everypony in the room stood to attention as Chrysalis stepped inside. Yelled Rainbow, equally as shocked as the Sun Princess. Celestia please help us.". Not to mention how foalish we had all been!". Even Spark was having trouble dancing the ballet of clashed blades with his other, despite his high morale. ", "But that's the problem Princess." I chose to go with the flow rather than get shouted at for believing you before getting left alone as well. Spike's request was greeted with a smile, but Cadance wisely remembered Twilight might not be too pleased to see him. ", "Why Auntie? "I hope you aren't hurt? ", "I'm not sure darling. "I didn't know that she wasn't the real Cadence! Mused Rarity. a canterlot wedding twilight betrayed fanfiction He was just a boy. See you.". Applejack, meanwhile, slowly trudged back to Sweet Apple Acres, saddened and dejected. And as for you, you walked out on her too! Can't you find it in your heart to give them another chance?". "I'll go and get Twilight. They heard me cryin' last night and wanted to know what was wrong. Once the Princess is captured, you are to flee the village and return to the Hive. And don't come back unless you want to be my friends again!". May I come in?". "What's going on here!? "Has she lost her mind or something?!" Shining expected Celestia to begin talking, but instead the solar alicorn rose from her perch before motioning to the stallion to accompany her out of the study. "I will not fail you.". But when it was my turn to wake..they were nowhere to be found. Last time we merely harvested the love from the ponies and kept attacking. After a while, she grinned confidently, settling Barbarousis's nerves. We already apologized for our mistakes! Said Chrysalis, her men following the command. Twilight Sparkle grapples with her conflicted feelings when she finds out her brother, Shining Armor, is marrying Princess Celestia's niece, Princess Cadance. Many of the city's buildings were damaged in the fighting, particularly by Changeling pegasi divebomb attacks, and much of the populace was displaced in the chaos. Among them was the only General in the entire officer corps, a rank befitting his position as the top commanding officer, and his name was so fearsome and infamous among ponykind that even the toughest of them could not speak his name and remain unafraid. Velvet and Night looked at each other in surprise, before returning their gaze to Luna. "Excellent." All passengers, the next stop is Ponyville!". Said Rainbow. ", "Very good Commander Barbarousis. How could you do such a thing?! Said Pinkie. I have a job for them.". Only time would tell. "Shininghow could you? Snake Bite bowed without a word. Captain, may I talk to you in private?". Spike had her well and truly beaten. With that, Shining left the war room. As my most trusted lieutenant, I am sure you will not fail me. "If you think I'm gonna surrender, you're dead wrong Chrysalis. "Hunter! Additionally, I have information you may want to hear.". Now, do me a favour and try not to cry while I'm spying on you.". Nopony usually goes in there, and it would provide the perfect cover for us to carve out a plan while we wait for the moment to strike. All she was doing was trying to save your high and mighty flank from getting beat by the Changelings, and THAT is how you repay her?! Snapped Spike. Applejack stopped eating. Her focus instantly derailed, Luna had little choice but to let her guests enter. After thanking the runner, who left the war room immediately, Shining read the letter, which was sent from the village attacked by the Changelings moments earlier. ", "No Fluttershy,I haven't. Yelled out the conductor as the train whistled. It was only now that everypony in the castle had learned of the caves, and ever since, Celestia had sent a scouting party of Royal Guards to investigate them, in order to find out how Chrysalis had managed to imprison both Cadance and Twilight in them, while taking measures to ensure they are never used in such a manner ever again. Growled the commandant in annoyance. It ain't right of a princess to do something as foalish as a hoofshake." She was cornered, and it could have been any more obvious to her. Shining was talking with one of his officers, Lieutenant Blue Hue, when a runner came up to him and handed him a letter. Replied Applejack spiritedly. ", "No ma'am. "Your Majesty, may I present Snake Bite. ", "It was I and Alkaios who came up with a separate plan of attack to deal with the princesses, your Majesty." First it was Twilight giving them a tongue-lashing, but now it was Spike. That was it, there was nothing left to stand in her way. "Applejack, ah' have lived a long, long life. Chrysalis turned to look at the pair, before returning an affirmative nod to Blade. Somepony would probably catch us. How she, out of her friends, her brother and her mentor was the only one to notice the glints of Chrysalis's evil under the shroud of her poorly rehearsed masquerade, how helpless and shocked she felt when Chrysalis brainwashed Shining, how little her friends took her seriously when she tried to tell them her concerns about the impostor, how hurt and betrayed she felt when they walked out on her, following her brother to comfort a pony who was completely undeserving of any sympathy, regardless of the crocodile tears she shed, how lost everything seemed when Celestia was defeated and she and her friends were captured before they could reach the Elements of Harmony, and how justified she felt after Chrysalis was beaten. It's too soon.". She would reveal her true identity, before going horn-to-horn against Celestia. "Is that my Shining Armor?!" Celestia snapped in frustration. You can still be angry at Twilight's friends, Shining Armor and Celestia, but not too much. Not only did Celestia abandon her, but she stabbed her with a proverbial dagger through her heart. That wasn't the reason she was here. ", "I have no doubt Twilight was gravely hurt by what her friends, her brother and Celestia did to her," Luna replied, "but what prevented the Nightmare Forces from corrupting her is that she had no bitter feelings towards them or desires of their destruction. Additionally, because you said she had a lot to think about, after taking a moment to gather her thoughts, she has resigned from her post as the bearer of the Element of Magic. While his stance remained unchanged, he was willing to lend an ear to Cadance's plea. MLP: FiM. Chat! Celestia couldn't say anymore, and Luna could see it. When it was cast, the shield was laced with traces of hatred and anger. Panting heavily, she turned to face Shining, tears streaming down her face. Having settled in, Chrysalis decided to pass on some fresh orders to her officers. We do not need this to continue! "Canterlot Caves?" The girls were leaving you..what could I have done? 1-2. friendship is magic 3. the ticket master 4. applebuck season 5 . Prowler! The Mane 5 were shocked to see that the baby dragon had taken on such a strict form, but Cadance remained unbowed by such an appearance. Rainbow cut in. I only hope we can all come up with an apology sincere enough to save Twilight from her grudge against us, all of us Designed and coded by knighty & Xaquseg - 2011-2023, Privacy Twilight needs us, and we're getting to her one way or another!" No matter how hard she tried to ignore it, it throbbed away in her mind like the many bruises she sustained from her numerous crash-landings. Whatever this was, they hoped it wouldn't be of any discomfort. She then smiled and clenched an eye as a red Spartan came into view on the river. The unicorn mare, bearing a mane almost similar to Twilight's, raced to the door to greet her son. That was the way things were for the time being. All of this was still cooking up a storm deep in the annals of her mind, and there was little she could do to forget about it. There's still a chance for you to make up with Twilight. I have come here to undertake important business. After a long moment of silence, Fluttershy managed to speak the question that hung on everypony's minds. "Royal Guards!". ", "But that wasn't your niece. "We weren't going to let Twilight be demoted back to Magic Kindergarten just like that! Whispered Luna, comforting her sister. Eventually, she reached the door to her room and opened it. "What is it honey? asked Velvet, feeling concerned. With a new school, town, and friends, it's an adventure waiting to . Please believe me, it didn't feel right to leave you hurting like that, but I didn't want to be ejected from the wedding either. Cadance could do little more than stroke her mane with a free hoof while trying to soothe the unicorn with comforting words. "Using my magic, I have been able to observe the movements of our enemies. Replied Luna. There was no doubt in her mind that Celestia would retaliate for this particular assault, should it fail, but for whatever she would send to attack the Hive, be it her Guards or the Element Bearers (the latter being the more likely), or even if Canterlot was conquered but a small resistance movement had managed to infiltrate enemy lines in an attempt to assassinate her or even to attack the Hive, it was necessary to ready the home defences. Have you forgotten just how much she believed in you? Slowly, she walked into the kitchen, where Granny Smith and Big Mac were both waiting. The Royal Guard and those who try to help them will be caught up in a frenzy of thuggery and murder. "Don't you get it?! FLASHBACK. "Come on in Cady. Things were building to a climax as Celestia's eyes and teeth clenched tighter and tighter with every passing second. How can you even call yourselves her friends anymore?!". It was clear what she had planned now that she'd taken her revenge on Twilight; for straight ahead, perched on the side of the mountains and lit by the evening sun, was the capitol city: Canterlot. Inside their carriage, the mood was quite grim. Take care of yourself. Licenses, Support us "Oh Spike, how could I not forgive you?" "Good morning girls. Cried Applejack, trying to defuse the situation. It's Cadance!

Hoping that Celestia might help him, he turned to her for answers. Behind him, the door closed and locked again, sealing him away from the outside world. Still, that is not the reason you summoned me.". What matters is that we are sorry for what we did, and all we want now is for us to be friends again. While there was no conflict outside, there was conflict deep inside. But in that fateful moment, everything changed. "I'm fine Spike.
