My Little Pony: Changelings

Princess Cadence said that she was fine, but Shining Armor refuted Princess Cadence, saying that she was just pretending and expressed his concern about the future of the Crystal Empire.

After rubbing his stepped hooves, Qunxing Huanghuang said to them.

"Do I really not need to beat up Senbula? Your magic is mainly defensive, and mine is offensive."

"No! No!"

Before the ponies could speak, Twilight Sparkle suddenly raised her hooves and crossed them over her chest to object to Starlight's suggestion.

"You know your situation well. If you go crazy, we'll be in big trouble."

"Crazy? What's going on, Twilight Sparkle? How come we didn't know that Starry Night had this kind of thing?"

Applejack looked confused. When asked about the creature in Ponyville that was most likely to go crazy, the first person that came to mind was Twilight Sparkle. She often went crazy from time to time because of planning problems, but would Starlight go crazy? She had no impression of that at all.

Twilight Sparkle didn't know how to explain it to them. Princess Celestia once told her that Starlight's mental state was not very stable. In fact, Twilight Sparkle had been with Starlight for so many days and had some understanding of him.

He is particularly friendly to creatures he knows, and his almost encyclopedic knowledge is definitely a great help. However, Qunxinghuanghuang is too cold towards creatures that have nothing to do with him. It's like a pony playing with her doll. She plays with it for a while when she is interested, but then throws it aside, or even worse, tears it into pieces.

Seeing Twilight Sparkle opposing her proposal, Starlight sighed, then walked to the window and looked outside the protective shield in the distance, wondering what she was thinking.

The other ponies saw this and were confused, before Shining Armor continued.

"Princess Cadence has used all of her magic to cast spells, and I have to keep an eye on King Sombra's movements. We don't have time to check with the Crystal Pony."

"Crystal Pony? A pony made of crystal?"

Rarity looked a little excited, then she realized that she had lost her composure, so she smiled awkwardly, and Twilight Sparkle had an idea when she heard it.

"Write a research report. This is part of my exam. I will learn about the situation from the Crystal Ponies and write a report for you. This is really great. I love writing reports the most..."

Qunxing Huanghuang looked back at Twilight Sparkle who was about to go out and said something for no reason.

"One more enemy is worse than one more friend."

"what?"

Twilight Sparkle stopped and turned to look at the stars leaning on the windowsill, while the stars turned around and walked towards Twilight Sparkle.

"What are you going to do? Find a way to protect the Crystal Empire and drive King Sembula out of the Crystal Empire? Then what? King Sembula was expelled a thousand years ago, and now King Sembula has made a comeback. Who among you can guarantee that King Sembula will not come back again in a thousand years?"

Hearing the doubts of the stars, the ponies present were all distressed. How could such a thing be solved? Twilight Sparkle seemed to have thought of something, and then said to the stars.

"Are you planning to kill King Sombra while he's still weak?"

"I have this plan, but I have a better plan, a method of waiting for the opportunity to strike."

The stars strode forward, resting their hooves on their chests, and spoke to Twilight Sparkle and the others, while Twilight Sparkle asked in confusion.

"what way?"

"First, we need to find King Sombra's girl, and then~"

"what!"

Hearing what the stars said, the ponies were shocked again. What the hell? King Sombra's girlfriend? Does he have one? As if she had thought of something, Twilight Sparkle said angrily.

"Qun Xing Huang Huang, you are not going to threaten King Sembula with his relatives, are you? It is shameful for you to do this."

"No, no, no, Twilight Sparkle, you don't understand the situation at all. That pony is not ignorant of right and wrong. Believe me, she was just deceived by the Wasteland Shadow Demon. Just make her realize the truth. I hope she is still there, the Shadow Prison."

"Prison of Shadows? What kind of place is that?"

After hearing this, Shining Armor was a little confused, but there was nothing he could do. He had only been in the Crystal Empire for a few days and what he knew was limited. He didn't even know the Crystal Heart, let alone the prison that was thousands of years old.

Qunxinghuanghuang did not answer, but walked to the window, stretched his hoof out of the window, and pointed straight into the distance.

"It's in the outskirts of the Crystal Empire, in the extremely cold wasteland. For a long time in the past, it was used as a prison to imprison those terrible monsters, the Wasteland Shadow Demons! That prison has existed since the founding of the empire."

The other ponies also came up and looked into the distance in the direction pointed by the stars. There was a snowstorm there and King Sombra was staring at the Crystal Empire.

"Uh... I think it's still too dangerous. How about we follow my plan and investigate the Crystal Ponies first?"

"Yes, yes. We know nothing about the distant places, but at least we know a little about the Crystal Empire, don't we?"

"Prison, it sounds like a bad place. How can it be more interesting than watching a pony made of crystal? The sparkling mane, the glowing hair~"

"Zhenqi! Okay, Qunxinghuanghuang, let's talk about this later. The first thing we need to do is to find a way to protect the Crystal Empire. Time waits for no one. I think Princess Yinyun is about to give up. We don't have time to waste looking for the Shadow Prison or anything like that."

Twilight Sparkle rejected the suggestion of the stars again, and the stars looked a little unwilling. Her plan was so perfect, why couldn't it be adopted? She had clearly read the textbook, and the standard was the answer, so why didn't she agree?

Qunxing Huanghuang still felt that he could succeed, after all, he was a genius who had read the script. So just when the horses thought that Qunxing Huanghuang was about to give up, Qunxing Huanghuang suddenly showed an ominous aura, fear, anger, purple magic power in the corners of his eyes, and the horn on his head revealed green power.

"Stars shine! What are you doing?"

"What else can you do? Skip the process and get the result directly. Didn't you say that Princess Yinyun doesn't have enough time? I can let you finish this boring exam in five minutes."

"Do not!!!"

Twilight Sparkle wailed so loudly that her voice broke for a moment. Starlight Sparkle happened to be standing next to Twilight Sparkle, and was almost deafened by the sudden attack. Starlight Sparkle covered her ears, withdrew the fear magic, and squatted on the ground like the other ponies.

"What are you doing!"

Twilight Sparkle stopped wailing, and then spoke to the stars beside her.

"No, no, no, no, this is a mission given to me by the Princess of the Universe, not for you. I need to complete it myself, not through the hands of others. I just came to the Crystal Empire and haven't investigated anything yet. I haven't even met the Crystal Ponies yet, and you want to complete the mission for me directly?

I haven't written an investigation report, nor do I have any mission notes, let alone the experience and gains from this exam. You let me complete this exam in a confused state. How can you expect me to report to the Princess of the Universe?

If Celestial Princess knew that I cheated on this test, I would definitely fail and be expelled from the school. No, it would be worse. Celestial Princess would definitely think I was a dishonest pony and she would kick me out of Equestria and exile me to the moon!"

Twilight Sparkle looked a little angry. She paced back and forth, looking a little anxious, as if this was some big deal.

After Starlight and the other ponies looked at each other, they seemed a little helpless. In the end, they could only let Twilight Sparkle take their friends out to investigate the Crystal Ponies, while Starlight was asked to stay here to protect the safety of Princess Cadence and Shining Armor.

Qunxing Huanghuang was lying on the side, watching the two difficult husband and wife showing off their love. Feeling a little full, Qunxing Huanghuang stood up and looked under the window sill. He could vaguely see that the M6s were wandering around, gathering information.

Qunxing Huanghuang turned around and said to Princess Yinyun and the others.

"Is this really okay? Can you still hold on? Let Twilight Sparkle and the others start the investigation on the spot instead of me finishing it directly. Maybe you can start to rest now."

Princess Yinyun raised her head and spoke to the stars.

"I believe Twilight Sparkle and the others can complete the mission, and I can still hold on. Twilight Sparkle never lets us down."

Since the real master said so, Qunxing Huanghuang didn't know what to say. He looked up at the increasingly arrogant King Sombra in the distance, and lay on the windowsill, watching Twilight Sparkle and the others below... Eh? Where are they? Oh, they should have gone to the library.

The waiting process was long, and finally Twilight Sparkle and the others came running over, holding a book, and ran happily to Princess Ursuline.

"Princess Cadence, Princess Cadence, I have found a way to restore the Crystal Ponies' memories, the Crystal Fair!

The book says that the exhibition was founded by the first empress of the empire and became their most important tradition. The exhibition is held every year to inspire the spirit of unity and love in the empire, thereby helping them resist invasion.

My friends and I can hold exhibitions, and everything we need is in the book.”

Shining Armor looked excited, but Princess Cadence didn't look good. Just as Twilight Sparkle hurried out the door, Starlight Sparkle, who was standing in the corridor, suddenly said something.

"You guys are awesome, I hope you can successfully find the crystal heart."

"What? Crystal Heart?"

"That's right. The Crystal Exhibition is held for Crystal Love. Crystal Love is like a lock that locks up all the evils of the Shadow Prison, and it can release enough power to support the operation of the entire Crystal Empire."

Hearing this, Twilight Sparkle's confidence suddenly deflated. She quickly opened the book to look for it, only to find that the last page was missing.

"No, no, no, no, Suilong, it looks like we have some work to do."

"Uh... Twilight Sparkle, why don't we ask the Starry Sky next to us? Can't he clear the level in five minutes?"

"No! Suilong, I have to take the lead in this matter. This is my exam. Qunxing Huanghuang is just an advisor. What he did just now was just a reminder. It doesn't count as cheating. Okay, okay, let's get ready."

After saying that, Twilight Sparkle ran out without stopping to find other friends to discuss countermeasures, and then after a while, Twilight Sparkle came over.

"Stars, we have already made a plan. They will handle the crystal exhibition, while Spike and I will go look for Crystal Hearts. You will also help. However, I don't want you to look for Crystal Hearts. Instead, you will help delay the Crystal Ponies' time and find a way to cheer them up."

The stars suddenly had a good idea, how about cheering them up? This was simple, so they agreed to Twilight Sparkle's request, and then Twilight Sparkle ran out quickly to find the crystal heart, while the stars walked out leisurely.

Then all the stars began to help decorate the venue, and finally the entire crystal exhibition was completed, and Twilight Sparkle also ran into the castle at this time.

Suddenly, Princess Ursuline's magic malfunctioned at this moment, but fortunately it only lasted for a short while and the barrier rose again. However, this sudden change caused the surrounding crystal ponies to become a little panicked, so they all gathered towards the crystal heart.

Starry Sky looked at the ponies gathering around her. They all wanted to see the crystal heart, but Applejack tried to stop them. When she saw Starry Sky being leisurely next to her, she became furious and quickly said.

"Hey, Stars, come over here and help us quickly. Think of a way to stop them from gathering here, okay?"

The stars smiled confidently. What could be more attractive to the Crystal Ponies at the Crystal Exhibition than a crystal heart? Of course there is!

Walking to the corner where there was no horse, the illusion was activated, and a unicorn with a white and tall body, curly and smooth pink hair, and wearing blue decorative clothes with a slightly Western style appeared here.

When Applejack sees Twinkle-Spark transform into a tall unicorn, she wonders what the use is. However, when the Crystal Ponies see him, they all exclaim and completely forget about the Crystal Heart and instead surround Twinkle-Spark.

"Princess Amore! It's Princess Amore!"

"Princess Amore is back, the Crystal Empire is saved!"

"Wow, Princess, you're finally back. I missed you so much."

Qunxing Huanghuang did not expect the effect to be so good. After the surrounding crystal ponies heard Princess Amore's name, they spread the word one by one, and then ten to a hundred. Qunxing Huanghuang had no choice but to go to a wide place so that she could gain a foothold.

A huge love immediately filled up Qunxinghuanghuang's chest. This was not the kind of love that Shining Armor had, this was the love that the subjects had for the princess. All living beings gathered here, and Qunxinghuang suddenly felt full of power.
