Original Description:
A brown hoof went straight to deactivate the alarm, the pony of which that appendage belonged wanting just five more minutes to wake up…
But to his (Your) surprise, there wasn’t an alarm clock there for you to smack over the table… neither there wasn’t a table in the first place… not even the beeping that usually woke you up and forced you to groggily get out of your comfy bed… Now that we’re discussing that… where’s your bed?
You lazily started waking up, at first not realizing what was going on, but shortly afterwards, after you started looking around with still sleepy eyes that begged for someone to turn off the lights, you realized that something was amiss… quite amiss…
You saw blades of grass to your left and right… and trees… and a mountain far away… but this wasn’t the awkward part… it was that everything you saw was huge relative to you. You had to rub your eyes a bit, believing you were still dreaming, until you actually realized that this was not a dream at all.
At that very moment of realization, your shocked eyes opened like dinner plates, as you frantically re-looked around, and again, and again… until you got a bit dizzy from spinning in such a way. “Wh…what… why I’m… tiny?” you said with a voice that seemed to break at any time, as fear started to enter into your mind. But that fear stopped abruptly when the ground under you started to rattle… then shake… it was actually quite hard for you to stand…
You took a few seconds to realize that those ‘rhythmic earthquakes’ you were feeling… were actually steps… hoofsteps… and they came closer to your position. Soon, you would see the cause of all those ‘booms’ in all their glory…
It was… “Queen Chrysalis?” you stammered, looking upwards fearfully, your ears dropping and your whole body in a ‘I’m genuinely terrified’ stance, you barely knew about her, but you did knew she was one of the baddies, and if that meant what you thought it meant, you probably were going to get your lights turned off abruptly soon… But she was different… somehow… For starters, the first thing you saw of her was her hooves and legs, which pounded the earth like gigantic and slow pneumatic hammers. But she had… shoes? Heart shoes? She also lacked holes in her legs… and… her wings… and hairstyle was different… you were curious, but not too curious to outright call for her attention to ask her what’s up with the new look. To not mention that you didn’t really remember how Queen Chrysalis looked anyways.
Sadly for you, you didn’t really need to turn into one of those airport guys with the colorful sticks for her to notice you, as she seemed to somehow glance at you, and, after looking at you again to confirm you were not a speck of dirt, stopping alarmingly, one of the black hooves with purple hoofwear almost fulminating you. Your heartbeat started to race like if they were NASCAR as you looked at the gigantic evil queen and she looked back at you… But her stare wasn’t malicious… or evil even…. In fact, it was some kind of surprised-worried mix of emotions.
“Oh! Are you okay? Really sorry!” She said, looking at you, her voice wasn’t buggy and evil… well, it was still buggy, a lovely buggy voice, but it definitely didn’t sound like an evil-scheming one. You were too scared to reply, and your frightened stance and impromptu cover with a leaf lead her to say “D-don’t worry little one, don’t be scared”
“I won’t hurt you” she added, looking at you with worried eyes, she took a few steps back, letting you regain your composure and calm yourself a bit, and then she levitated you… you started to feel a bit sick as the world seemed to retreat, but you realized after some instants that you were the one who started leaving the safety of the ground, rising up the skies.
Soon, you stopped floating upwards, to now remain static at a certain point, or atleast, that’s what you thought, you weren’t a unicorn anyways. But your thoughts about how levitation and telekinesis works were interrupted as she looked at you, her horn glowing. “Are you hurt? If you want you can come with me, you seem lost” she said, a hint of worry lacing her message, but even though your instincts said you to run, you… actually started to feel calmer…
“I’m using my changeling magic to calm you… I hope you don’t mind” she said, blushing lightly as she bit her lip, looking at your floating figure. And indeed you started to feel calmer, your heartbeat starting to slow down a bit “I’m Duchess Chrysalis, by the way” she added, presenting herself, and, instead of offering a hoof to shake, just levitating your brown and tiny figure towards her face, bringing her muzzle to you and nuzzling you (But the thought that she was going to eat you almost made you panic), the soft, fluffy muzzle of hers gently and delicately brushing your tiny body.
“Duchess Chrysalis?” You said in a confused manner, you thought her name was Queen Chrysalis, not Duchess… when did she get demoted? But you hadn’t time to think about the demotion of Queens and Kings as you hurriedly said, just to be polite “Um… Cherry Cookie, nice to meet you”.
She giggled at your shyness, and smiled warmly towards you “A pleasure to meet you, Cherry Cookie, come on, my home it’s not too far” she said, starting to walk, and gently placing you on her hair… It kinda smelt nice… like some sort of sweet perfume… you blushed a bit realizing what you were doing, and you just held tightly to the strands by fear of falling, though you had some kind of consciousness that knew she would most likely catch you if you actually did fall…
