Ponyville City Hall 10:29 A.M. Sunday

    After Quillwrite and his parents had made up,  everypony had went back to the Cafe to get something to snack on.  Every other pony around keep a somewhat fearful eye on Chrysalis, afraid that she might do something.  Once there, Derpy Hooves, a grey pegasus with a yellow mane and tail, yellow eyes that were looking in two different directions and a cutie mark that consisted of several bubbles, had arrived with a message for the changling before taking off to deliver the rest of the mail.  Taking a look, the message had read:

Dear Queen Chrysalis,

This letter is inform you that you are requested to see the Mayor of Ponyville at 11:00 A.M. to discuss your reason for being within the Town of Ponyville

Sincerely,
The Mayor of Ponyville, Mayor Mare

After reading the message, Chrysalis looked up at the others with a worried look on her face.  She was afraid that she would have to leave the town, her new friends and Quillwrite.

"Don't worry, we'll all be there for you." Quillwrite said, walking beside the changling and leaning close to her.

The others agreed with him, causing a smile to appear on Chrysalis' face as she nodded.

Ponyville City Hall 10:56 A.M.

    Once there, they all waited the last four minutes outside the Mayor's office.  Chrysalis was pacing back and forth in front of the door that it looked as if it was about to wear down.  Quillwrite noticed the nervous look on her face and decided to calm her nerves.

"It'll be okay, we won't let anything happen to you." he said as he leaned close to her.  "We can vouch that you have changed and want to start a new life here."

"Thank you, but I'm worried about the other ponies that live here in Ponyville." Chrysalis said as she leaned close to Quillwrite.  "What if they're so scared that they try to throw out of town?"

"You just have to show them that you've changed." Quillwrite answered.  "Sometimes you just have show others that you don't mean any harm."

The changling smiled at him, but looked up when she heard the door.  From inside, the Mayor of Ponyville looked and called for Chrysalis to enter her office.  Chrysalis gulped as headed towards the, looking back at Quillwrite, who gave a confident smile.  She smiled slightly and walked inside the office closing the door behind her.

Inside the office, Mayor Mare in her seat behind the desk inside, while Chrysalis sat in a chair placed in front the desk.

"So, you've finally revealed yourself within Ponyville after what had taken place in Canterlot some time ago." the Mayor said with a nuetral expression.  "My question to you is why?"

"Because of Quillwrite." Chrysalis said with a small amount of confidence.  "He gave me a second chance and believes that I can change for the better and I plan do to so."

"And what is your plan while you're here?" the Mayor asked, raising an eyebrow.

"To start a new life and be happy." Chrysalis answered.

"And how do you plan on doing that?" the Mayor asked.

"I don't know how, but with the help from Quillwrite and his friends and family, I'm sure it's possible." Chrysalis said with full confidence.

Mayor Mare just looked at the changling before breaking into a smile.

"Well, if that's the case, then welcome to Ponyville and I hope that you have a very happy life here." Mayor Mare said, happily.

"Thank you." Chrysalis said, bowing her head slightly.

She walked out of the office with a smile, telling everypony there what the Mayor said.

"That's great." Quillwrite said, walking up to her and giving her a hug which was returned.

"Yeah, now all we have to do is convince the rest of Ponyville." Lone Wolf said with a small smile.  "But what about Celestia; if and when she
finds out about you being here, she's going to want to talk to you."

"I know, which is why I would like Twilight to write a letter to her." Chrysalis suggested, surprising everypony around her.

"Are you sure that's a good idea?" ArrowsEye asked, raising an eyebrow at the changling.

"Yes, it'll be better to get it over with than to wait." she answered.

"Okie Dokie Lokie." ArrowsEye said, giving a salute to her.

"When you go through with this, I want to be beside you the whole time." Quillwrite said, leaning his head closer to her, making Chrysalis smile.

"You do know that we have two more ponies to tell about this, right?" Lone Wolf said, making everypony look at him confused.  "Princess Cadence and Prince Shining Armor."

Hearing those names made Chrysalis really nervous, since she had imprisoned Cadence and brainwashed Shining Armor on their wedding day.

"It would help you out a lot more if you did." Lone Wolf continued.

"I don't know." Chrysalis said, unsure.

"Don't worry, like I said, I'll right beside you."  Quillwrite said.  "And if they try something, they'll have to go through me."

"And me." Lone Wolf said.

"And me." ArrowsEye said.

"And me." Wing Saber said.

"And me." Cotton Heart said.

"And me." Melody Bloom said.

"And me." Ace Slugger said.

Timber let out a bark in agreement as he walked to Chrysalis and nuzzled her leg.

"And don't, we'll make sure this is all handled in a calm and peaceful manner." Twilight said giving her support.  "Right?"

"Yeah, plus I want to see how fast a changling can fly."  Rainbow Dash said.

"I agree, I did want to design some attire for someone so unique." Rarity said.

"I'll be happy to help,  and we could use an extra set of hooves on the farm." Applejack said.

"And I could throw a 'Changed For The Better' party for you." Pinkie Pie said.

"I-I guess so, I could introduce you to Angel and the animals I care for." Fluttershy said.

All the support she got made Chrysalis leak tears of joy as she smiled at everypony around her.

"Thank you, everypony." she said, wiping her tears.

"No problem, now come on, we have a week of to enjoy." Lone Wolf said as everypony cheered.  "By the way, that letter to Celestia will have to until then."

"I know, I want to get to know her before I do." Twilight said with a smile.
