I-I don't understand. How can there be two of 'em?
She's a changeling! She takes the form of somepony you love and gains power by feeding off your love for them!
["Cadance" disposes her disguise and transforms into Chrysalis, Queen of the Changelings.]
[laughing] Right you are, Princess. And as queen of the changelings, it is up to me to find food for my subjects. Equestria has more love than any place I've ever encountered. My fellow changelings will be able to devour so much of it that we will gain more power than we have ever dreamed of!
They'll never get the chance! Shining Armor's protection spell will keep them from ever even reaching us!
[chuckling] Oh, I doubt that. Isn't that right, dear?
Mm-hmm.
Ah, ah, ah. Don't want to go back to the caves now, do you? Ever since I took your place, I've been feeding off Shining Armor's love for you. Every moment he grows weaker and so does his spell. Even now, my minions are chipping away at it.
[laughing]
[laughing] He may not be my husband, but he is under my total control now.
[both gasps]
And, I'm sorry to say, unable to perform his duties as captain of the Royal Guard.
Not my Shining Armor!
Soon, my changeling army will break through. First, we take Canterlot. And then, all of Equestria!
No. You won't. You may have made it impossible for Shining Armor to perform his spell, but now that you have so foolishly revealed your true self, I can protect my subjects from you!
[grunting]
[Princess Celestia and Queen Chrysalis engage in a beam battle. Queen Chrysalis ends up winning and Princess Celestia lands on the floor, her horn burnt and her crown loose. The wedding audience gasps in horror.]
Princess Celestia!
[Twilight runs to her. Her friends follow her.]
Ah! Shining Armor's love for you is even stronger than I thought! Consuming it has made me even more powerful than Celestia!
The Elements of Harmony. You must get to them, and use their power to defeat the queen.
Rarity!
[laughing] You can run, but you can't hide!
