You doing OK this morning? "Without Twilight, the Elements become useless!". I am here to save you from the Nightmare Forces that once corrupted me.". The one you saw at the wedding was a poorly rehearsed act of imitation, one undeserving of her very image.

"He is the captain of the Canterlot's Royal Guard" explain Twilight. Now, do me a favour and try not to cry while I'm spying on you.". "Your Majesty?"

Fortunately enough for the elite Changeling spy, he did not have to wait long as around the same time Twilight and company had embraced each other in a hug, Blade soon reported back via telepathy. There was no trusting the girls, considering the magnitude of what they had done to Twilight at the rehearsal, but it remained to be seen if there was any credibility in their desire to apologize, and even if their apology was solid enough to prove their remorse. "I am sure you do not need an explanation as to my sadness, Captain Armor. 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. Applejack had nothing else to say.

Chrysalis delayed her response, taking a moment to ponder the plan. It was as if time had stopped completely, the pain and trauma of the world melted by the warmth of Fluttershy's kindness. "Yes Luna. "Immediately!" Something like this from her sister was unheard of. This was starting to sound strange. The poor mare was exhausted, having gone through so much up to this point. The girls had succeeded in trying to understand Twilight's fury, and she had helped them to do it. "Take as much time as you need. Just then, Cadance walked into the bakery. Once that is done, my unicorns will then teleport into the castle en masse, where they will begin to harvest the Princesses' love simultaneously, so as to increase their powers and give them extra strength in close combat.

After a while, she grinned confidently, settling Barbarousis's nerves. Muffins which ah' and the royal cooks had spent so much time working on!

"If you think I'm gonna surrender, you're dead wrong Chrysalis. She would reveal her true identity, before going horn-to-horn against Celestia. The girls are sorry and they wish to apologise to Twilight personally!". In fact, I'm sure Shining and Celestia have realized just how badly they screwed up by now.

"All I cared about at that point was being a bridesmaid, and the added honour of mingling with Canterlot's nobility. They were all suffering equally as bad as she was, and thus they had to be there for each other and for Twilight especially.

Furnishing the room was Celestia's wardrobe, a study where she kept endless amounts of correspondence, particularly from Twilight and her friends, a mirror as high as the tip of the alicorn's horn and a rather extravagant grandfather clock, designed using the wood from an oak tree to create a working celebration of the sun, which crowned the head of the clock. However, Twilight seemed to only cry harder. She considered herself a hypocrite for having taught Twilight all those lessons about friendship and magic, only to show nothing by herself.

Emotions which, once they took hold, would give way to malice, evil and nightmares, an experience which consumed the Lunar Princess herself. The first gaze she cast was at Cadance, to whom she smiled. State your business!" The walls, floor and roof were cast marble, a red carpet stretching from the door to Celestia's bed, equally an impressive sight as the room itself. ", "Take as much time as you both need Spike.
