Hey guys I know I should be updating my other fics, but I had to get this down. The Canterlot Wedding went too far with how Twilight was treated. This is basically a what if fic. Besides we all knew Celestia had this coming but she refused to accept the inevitable.


Twilight Sparkle was beyond terrified in the mines of Equestria. She was right about Cadence being a phony and no pony, not even Celestia, believed her. All they thought was themselves and not how Twilight was just defending them. The words and expressions Twilight recieved during the rehearsal had not only broke her, but would also be enough to bring back a certain Draconequus.

"You have much to think about."

"You can forget about being my best mare. In fact don't bother coming to the wedding."

"Come on guys, let's check on the Princess."

Those words still echoed through Twilight's ears and she was convinced that all of the times she spent with the group was for nothing. Well except for a certain drake that seemed to have been forced to leave her. The purple unicorn knew it was either Rarity or Celestia who forced him, but she didn't know who. The others on the other hand proved that she was just some tool to them and she was useless.

"If I ever get out of this dungeon, I swear I'll teach those traitors a lesson they won't forget. There has to be something down here to help get me out of here. Princess Celestia you've crossed the line and this time you will face your justice." Twilight Sparkle said to herself as she stomped through the heart of the mines.


At the Princess's Throne room, Spike was remembering all the times Twilight was there for him, and how she treated him like a little brother. The drake felt horrible when he was forced to leave her on Celestia's order. Spike was slowly realizing that he should have done the right thing and backed Twilight up when Celestia and Shining Armor disowned her.

"Ah can't believe Twilight would make up a lie about Princess Cadence." Applejack said as she fixed her sitron hat on her head.

"Yeah, what does she think she was doing? I can't believe I called her a friend, she wasn't even awesome." Rainbow Dash said as she crossed her front hooves in a snobbish way.

Spike was on the verge of snapping at the mares, but had too keep his cool. However he finally had it when Celestia said the most disrespectful thing she's ever said in her life.

"I was a fool for trusting her for so long. Twilight Sparkle is a disgrace to her family. Everything was better without her, and that's coming from the heart. She shall be banished to the moon for eternity." Celestia said as she destroyed all the letters Twilight sent to her.

"IS THIS ANYWAY TO TREAT YOUR OWN FRIEND!?" Spike shouted as he spat a fireball at the group.

All of the mares were taken aback at the drakes rage and stared at him.

"Watch it Spike, you almost hit us!" Pinkie said as she blew some embers off of her tail.

"THAT'S THE POINT YOU JERK! I CANT BELIEVE ALL OF YOU ARE TREATING TWILIGHT LIKE SPIT AFTER EVERYTHING SHE'S DONE FOR YOU!" Spike scolded the group.

"Calm down Spike..." Rarity started before a voice belonging to a familiar chaos lord interrupted her.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. I thought you were supposed to be the good guys, but I was wrong." Discord said as he materialized into the room with two Cadences, a beaten one and a intact one.

"What are you doing here Discord?" Celestia snarled before she looked into the beaten Cadence's eye and realized what was going on.

"Gee, are you finally regretting disowning a certain friend? I'm very disappointed in all of you, but the one I'm most disappointed in is you Princess Candyass. Have you been paying attention all these years?" Discord scolded everypony as he summoned a hypnotized Shining Armor in the room.

"What are you up to Discord?" Rainbow Dash said as she got ready to attack the Draconequus in case he was going to do anything.

Discord just breathed a sigh of disbelief as he snapped his talon. The hypnotized stallion and the Cadence everypony but Spike chose returned to their normal selves.

The fake Cadence looked like a hybrid between and Alicorn and a bug. The Alicorn had a pitch black body with holes throughout her body, a cyan mane and tail combo, and insect like wings and stomach.

"Well if I'm not mistaken, it seems you traitorous equine chose a Changeling over a friend. I usually only spread disharmony, but I can tell you this. You best start making amends with Twilight right now. That is when this bug tells us where she is." Discord said as he held the imposter by her throat.


Back in the mines, Twilight Sparkle had found a strange chamber in the mines and went inside to investigate. The chamber looked and felt more ominous then the time Nightmare Moon came back into existence.

The room had images of the elemental properties dark and fire on the walls, bizarre text on broken pillars, and layers of dust and cobwebs everywhere. It was in the middle of the chamber that caught Twilight's attention; an alter with a gem that was in the shape of her cutie mark, but was emitting dark and fiery sparks around it.

"Hmm, I wonder what this could be?" Twilight asked herself as she came in closer to the gemstone.

The moment Twilight got close enough to the gem to touch it, the dark gemstone shined an intense glowing red and black. The stone was broken into millions of pieces and a pillar of darkness and fire erupted. Twilight covered her eyes to prevent herself from going blind by the fire.

When Twilight lowered her hoof, she was greeted with a towering monster. The beast was easily twice of Discord's size and looked like a combination between fire and shadows. The beast had two horns on it's head that were pointing downwards, wings of a massive bat, and glowing eyes that could pierce any creatures soul. Twilight Sparkle had released a Balrog from it's prison.

"Young mare, you have done me a great favor. In return you shall become my new vessel. You should consider it an honor Twilight Sparkle." the Balrog said to Twilight as it levitated her towards it.

"What are you talking about?" Twilight asked the flaming demon.

"I've been observing you for a long time my dear. Don't worry I didn't invade your privacy at all times. You could say I was merely observing your talents dear Twilight. Answer me this, have you ever felt like you were a puppet during your role as that certain horse's student? Have you thought how strange it was that the Princess thrown you out like yesterday's garbage when you stood up for them, yet she claimed to always be your friend?" The Balrog said as it had it's left hand under her chin.

Twilight tilted her head in thought as she pieced together what the creature was talking about. The mare did find it odd that the one Princess she looked up to betrayed her, she was being used as a puppet and her strings were cut off when she did the right thing.

"Yes, your right. How dare that two faced princess use me like that? I've been a tool all along. I thought I had friends but they double crossed me. Well except maybe Spike, but still." Twilight said as she felt the Balrog begin it's transferring spell.

The two had formed a sphere of darkness, fire, shadows, and magic as the spell was happening. The sphere dissipated after some minutes and in it's place a shadowy figure was in it's place.
