private A meeting with Death

[Count Paradox 3,548]

"Teach you what? I already told you that your going to half to find your own way through the hive, I'm heading I'm a different derection than you."

 

Shade wanted to confront the queen one last time before she would destroy the hive, there was only one problem, thees ponies would half to gight there way out if things got rough.

Paradox just stares at Shade blankly. Then, he begins to slowly explain it to her. "The spell... that allows... changelings... to change... into different... ponies." With every stall, he enounciated the words. "Don't you have that spell tucked away into your brain someplace?" He was getting rather cross and short with her, she was really beginning to piss him off.

[Lost Profile 644]

Shade raised an eyebrow, "it's not a spell, it's a power that changeling are born with, and only changeling can learn it. How ever, I know how to change other ponies... That is something that most changelings can't do."

 

"I dont feel like doing it, But since your going to force me to do it anyways, what do you want to look like?" She asked in an angered state.

[Miss Light Diamond 2,802]

"Well, it should work if a unicorn like me - or an alicorn like Nightfall - casts it on you, it just might take some time learning, I mean, I'm no Twilight Sparkle, I can't learn new spells in under 10 minutes!" He chuckled and turned back to Shade. "So, would you please be willing to teach us?"

 

 

Arrow gulped. "Ok...I don't like the idea of looking like a changeling but I guess its to save the world." She muttered, looking around the garden. *No, she's not turning me into a changeling...she's just making us look like...Yes. For the last time I am not going to leave you.* She thought.

"You know what, Shade, if you never intended on helping us, and you've already gotten your fill of my love, then why the hell are yoy still with us, huh?!" He glared at the halfling, extremely angry with her attitude towards the group as a whole. He then said, "All I asked was for a little help on my journey. Everypony else has been fine so far, but you..." He walks up to her and looks her straight in the eye. "You've shown nothing but contempt for everypony here!"

"Damn it you two, what the hell did I just say? We can't be fighting with each other. Shade, whether you like us or not, right now we have a common goal, so you might as well let us help you. Paradox, I just had this conversation with you, calm down and stop getting into fights with everypony."

"Look, do you want my changeling powers and information or not? And I'm only here because I have the chance to destroy the hive, and I also have nothing better to do... However, I could go serving death and tell it of your exact plans, but I choose not to... I choose to help you... Now what do you want to look like?" She asked in annoyance and anger.

Chamois was silent for a moment.  She didn't know whether he could move yet or not.  She quickly helped him over to the rest of the ponies.  It seemed a bit rude to ask...as if she didn't wish to help him anymore.  But...actually she was feeling uncomfortable, but it still was her fault...

She still held onto him. He was starting to wonder if it was more of a protection thing now. More of something that would comfort her while they continued on their journey, something that made her feel better.

"It isn't your fault, Chamois," he whispered to her.

[Feather Gem 967]

He can read your thoughts.  Run.

What?

Chamois lifted her shoulders slightly and exhaled.  "It is though.  All because I just wanted to get my sketch book.  I should have come myself or something.  Now the others and you got hurt, and I don't even have a scratch."

[Nightfall 3,950]

Chamois lifted her shoulders slightly and exhaled.  "It is though.  All because I just wanted to get my sketch book.  I should have come myself or something.  Now the others and you got hurt, and I don't even have a scratch."

"It's all temporary, Chamois. Please stop saying your fault... It makes me feel bad," he added, silently. He blushed.

"I'll be fine soon, and I'm sure every other pony will be fine as well, meaning there's no permanent harm done."

He stood there, close to her, blushing a little.

[Feather Gem 967]

Chamois sighed.  "Okay..." she said.  Well, I'll certainly stop saying it, but I won't stop thinking it.

But he can hear your th-

Shut up.  No he can't.  Seriously...

Chamois lowered her shoulders down and prickled her ears back up.  He can't really believe its not my fault though...right?

Some ponies are like that.

That's...that's so swe---

Chamois...stop it.

[Nightfall 3,950]

Chamois sighed.  "Okay..." she said.  Well, I'll certainly stop saying it, but I won't stop thinking it.

That's...that's so swe---

Chamois...stop it.

He glanced at her, wanting to break free of her 'helping' grasp and lift her shoulders up. He scooted a little closer to her.

"Hey... You look sad, and it's making me sad..."

He blushed.

"Here... If you still feel sad, go ahead and hug me, push me away... Whatever will make you feel better. I don't want you to keep thinking it's your fault..."

[Feather Gem 967]

Chamois automatically moved her head away, blushing.  Help.  Me.  "Uh...n-no thanks.  I'll just...stand right here...and do...nothing..." she whispered, blushing again underneath her pale gray coat.  He said you can push him away.  Do it.  Do it now.

Well, it'll still be mean.

So?

So no.

[Count Paradox 3,548]

Paradox rolled his eye. "Ok, fine, yes, we do want your changeling help." He looked at her again. "... Look, I'm... I'm sorry, all right? I didn't mean to act that way, to you or to Nightfall, it's just... things have been building up for me lately, and with my... secret... breaking free and doing some damage, that kinda pushed me over the edge. I never mean't to act to angrily to anypony..." He rubbed the back of his head, blushing very lightly. "Heh, sorry I just spilled my guts out to you..."

[MelancholicMemory 2,025]

Moonbeam watched all of this. It was a complex cacophony of romance and fighting which played out before her. All she wanted was for them all to work together and continue their adventure. The last thing she wanted was more fighting. She laid down and watched them all bicker, waiting for them to finally work out plan. I give up. These ponies have to work this out on their own. Then we can continue.

[Nightfall 3,950]

Chamois automatically moved her head away, blushing.  Help.  Me.  "Uh...n-no thanks.  I'll just...stand right here...and do...nothing..." she whispered, blushing again underneath her pale gray coat.  He said you can push him away.  Do it.  Do it now.

Well, it'll still be mean.

So?

So no.

 

He blushed, lowering his head a little.

"So... I'm- I'm sorry, Paradox. I'm just... a little on edge from my past. So... will you please forgive me?"

"Good. If he says yes, we can continue. If he says no..."

"... We can't beat him, so then we'll have to just suck it up and move on. Try to forget it this time."

[Lost Profile 644]

"what ever... just... tell me what you want to look like and il change you... just be warned that it may or may not be painful." shade said.

 

"so whos going first and what do you want to look like?" she asked,

shade was getting impatient, she wanted to get to the hive as soon as possable

[Count Paradox 3,548]

"Shade..." Paradox began. "We just want to look like changelings. Just... give us special markings or something so we can differentiate between friend or foe, but make them not noticable to others." He then stepped up. "I'll be the first. I mean, I should go just in case it isn't safe for the others."

[Lost Profile 644]

Shade stepped close to dox, her hoof got surrounded with green fire, then she opened her mouth, green mist came out of dox and stayed in between shade and dox. Shades horn glowed and made the mist go back into dox and she touched dox with the fire hoof, causing him to be surrounded with fire and changing him to look like a changeling minion.

 

Shade was dizzy, but she quickly snapped herself together.

"Ok... You look just like a normal changeling, Made it so you can identify us Easley, when you look at us, we will glow, just don't let any of the guards look in your eyes closely, they have a green tint to them and if a guard sees it, they will know that I'm close by and your not part of the hive." She explained...

 

"So who's next?" She asked.

She explained...

 

"So who's next?" She asked.

 

Arrow reluctantly walked up in front of Shade. "I suppose that will be me...but I am still unsure whether this will work on me...Dryad's are not really like Normal ponies." She said, spreading her leafy wings as an example."But...I suppose its worth a try. I wonder...do changelings take other ponies hostage ?" She asked.

 

(OOC: Anyone object to the spell not working on Arrow ?)

[Count Paradox 3,548]

While the spell was happening, Dox never felt any pain, only warmth. When he opened his eyes, he looked down and saw he was completely black. He lifted his hoof and saw numerous little and large holes peppered throughout his legs. He looked through one of them at Nightfall. "Heh heh... hey, Nightfall, I see you!" He had a little chuckle. You had to have some fun on journies like this, right?

[Feather Gem 967]

Chamois raised an eyebrow at Paradox.  What.  Pretty cool though.  "You can do me after you do her," she said, pointing at Arrow, not knowing the pony's - or Dryads - name.  She glanced at Nightfall.  If she had to be changed to look like a changeling, she couldn't really hold onto him.

[Lost Profile 644]

"I'm not sure it will work, but il do my best." Shade said " although I don't think fire and grass go together very well, but this fire dosnt burn so I think it will be ok." She said.

 

Long story short, shade used a lot of energy, to change arrow.

 

Shade fell to the ground and looked up at arrow looking like a minion. "Whew... It worked"

[Miss Light Diamond 2,802]

(OOC: Again...if there are any objections to me doing this...I can just edit. I think it will make things more interesting. I never really got an answer so...)
 

 

The change didn't seem to hurt Dox but to Arrow she did feel a slight pain...but then when Shade finished pain coursed through her body and she and fell to the ground as green fire surrounded her hooves and started spreading up her legs. Moments later...she was back to normal...laying on the ground...panting. "I-Ow-t-told you." She said, slowly pushing herself to her hooves.

[Lost Profile 644]

(Let's just go in this direction)

 

"Well... It partly worked... You have the shape, but you still look like a tree... This might be a problem if you want to pass as a normal changeling... Unless you put on a set of heavy armor, then that will cover up the... Leaves and stuff then I think youl have a chance of passing"

 

Shade got on her hooves and, "now who's next?" She asked.
