[changelings' wings buzzing as they see "Trixter"]

Thorax: *disguised as Trixter* Looking for somepony?

[changelings screech as they fly at him but he uses a smoke bomb and disappears confusing the changelings]

* "Trixie" is behind them on a ledge*

Mesosoma: *disguised as Trixie* Is that the best you've got?! [laughing and sees the changelings and uses a smoke bomb]

[the changelings hear more smoke bombs and follow the noises]

*the others are watching from above in concern*

Discord/Eris: *to Twilight and Dusk* *mildly* Not exactly great and powerful, but effective.

Twilight/Dusk- *shrugs*

Trixie/Trixter: *pops up in between them* *proud* Hm. We'll take it.

*Trixie and Trixter walk up to the group*

Starlight/Stellar: *worried* "Klutzy"...

Trixie, Trixter, Mesosoma and Thorax: *calmly*..."draconequus"!

[transformation zap as Thorax and Mesosoma turn back to normal]

Discord/Eris: *annoyed* Ugh. I really think we need a new code word!

Thorax/Mesosoma: *to Twilight and Dusk* That was a pretty good plan.

Twilight- *nods* *points to Trixie and Trixter* Luckily, they had those smoke bombs on them...

Dusk- *nods at them* Nice work, you two...

Trixie/Trixter- ...Thanks...

Barbra:*worried* Guys that's great but we still don't know where we're going.

Spike: *thinks* Actually, we might. Two of the changelings didn't go with the rest.

Thorax: *smiles* Oh! With an intruder in the hive, they went to protect the queen and king!

Mesosoma- *smiles* Good thinking, Spike!

Spike- *smiles calmly* Thanks...

[changelings' wings buzzing]

*at the entrance to the throne room*

Trixie/Trixter: *worried* Now what?

Starlight/Stellar: *serious* We... go in.

Thorax: *scared* Even if we wanted to, there's no way past the guards.

Mesosoma- *scared* We'll be spotted for sure and we won't be able to fight their our way out.

Spike/Barbra- *comforts them*

Trixie: *worried* I'm fresh out of smoke bombs.

Twilight- *serious* Discord, Eris you guys are up...

Discord: *worried* Normally, we're the most distracting thing we can think of, but without magic...

Eris- *concerned*

Twilight- *smirks at Discord* Oh, please with or without magic you still know how to distract and get the best of ponies...

Dusk- *smirks* Mostly us...

Twilight- *smirks* Think of it like a game with rules...the first rule is everypony has to play the game fairly...

Dusk- *smirks* And no magic...

Discord/Eris- *realizes* *smirks*

[doors closing and the changelings see Discord and Eris]

Discord: [taps microphone] *smirks* Hello, changelings and changelettes! Believe me, I was just as surprised as you are that I'm here! When I heard that I'd be playing for a bunch of changelings, I was beside myself! Then I realized, it was just one of you.

[rimshot]

*everyone behind a slab*

Twilight/Dusk- *unamused*

Trixie- *whispers* Wow, that was bad...

*everyone agrees*

[changelings snarl]

Eris: [nervous laugh] But, seriously, this isn't the toughest crowd I've ever been in front of. But it's definitely the easiest to bug!

[rimshot]

*changelings are confused*

Thorax/Mesosoma- *unamused*

Spike/Barbra- *next to them* *whispers* We're so sorry...

Starlight/Stellar- *cringes*

Discord/Eris: *unamused* "To bug"? Is this thing on? [taps microphone]

[changelings snarl]

*everyone else goes through the door*

Discord/Eris: *glares* Well, if you think that you can do any better, be our guests! *drops the microphones and runs on all fours*

[microphone feedback]

[changelings' wings buzzing as they chase Discord and Eris]

Trixie: *unamused* It is absolutely ridiculous that that worked.

*mostly everyone nods*

Dusk- *points* We aren't out of the woods yet...

*they all look to see multiple holes*

Spike- *worried* What now?

Twilight- We have no choice, we have to split up its our best option

Dusk- She's right go with a partner

Trixie- *stands next to Starlight*

Trixter- *stands next to Stellar*

Spike- *on top of Thorax*

Barbra- *on top of Mesosoma*

Twilight/Dusk- *stands next to each other*

*they all nods to each other and each pair heads down a tunnel*
