Well, I guess my beginnings would be when I was born. I was born and raised in Cloudsdale, not really doing the best at school but not terrible either, and I lived a fairly normal life, despite my, um, being a changeling...."

Sky finished his speech and waited for questions, the adrenaline rush now dying and giving him a reminder of why he was nervous in the first place. Sky had never been comfortable with speaking in front of any crowd, it just made him real nervous.

The committees weren't sure whether Sky was done. It felt too brief. But after a few seconds, the members shrugged and started asking questions. Pinwheel Dreams, an Agrarian on the Social Justice Committee, gave the first.

"Mr. Sprinter, has anypony ever suspected you of being a changeling until now, and if so, how often, and could you please elaborate on it?"

"No, as far as I know, nopony has ever suspected me of being a changeling. The ponies I've been near to never seem to think that they could be talking to a changeling, and it helped that I lived entirely in Equestria, so I had the same experiences that anypony in Cloudsdale would have as a foal, minus some close-calls with discovery." Sky replied. The pause before the questions worried him but he felt relieved that things seemed to go smoothly.

Sky replied. The pause before the questions worried him but he felt relieved that things seemed to go smoothly.

Pinwheel Dreams nodded. "Okay."

Some members seemed to be a little skeptical of this answer. "Mr. Sprinter," said Mauve Legato. "When Tirek went stealing everypony's magic there were a number of ponies that were revealed to be changelings in the process, and at least some were run out of their towns. You said you lived in Cloudsdale... was that, being exposed as a changeling in Cloudsdale, because, well, I'm guessing you were, your motivation for moving to Ponyville? I'm not saying anypony found you as one, but I'm still curious."

The Flutterlands wrote:Muckraker snarled. She had an idea that this would not end well. Clearly it's obvious to the committees that Razor Wing and his people were simply too peaceful to posses such a sadistic weapon as the Baron-Z Disruptor. Not only that but Muckraker found it difficult to think of a solution to their current problem.
"This was your idea, Smokescreen." whispered Muckraker, "What do you think would make a good excuse to get these fools on our side?"

Smoky Topaz sighed. She spied another mare coming into the bathroom. "Hold on," she said and switched to Equestrian. "But Muckraker, that's too extreme, especially for the Blues. That would mean that every district would need to be subject to preclearance if there's even a single donkey registered to vote there." The mare passed into the bathroom again and Smoky continued back into Changeling.

"Well the only real option here is to fess up, of course," she winked with a frown. "We can't sustain this lie long without making us look like traitors. The real Muckraker's got millions of bits from the exposés that made her famous. Say you got the disruptor from a back-alley dealer because you wanted to find favor with the defense contractors and you wanted something big again just like your writing days."

The question stirred up two memories in Sky's brain, one in Cloudsdale and one in Ponyville. "Actually, yes. I forgot about two things," he said sheepishly, "In Cloudsdale, after Tirek's defeat, there was this one pony that saw me. I was on the edge of the town when it happened and nopony would have recognized me so I flew out of there and waited until I could return when my magic came back to me. And in Ponyville, about a day or so ago, there was this guard who seemed suspicious of me, one of Princess Twilight's. I, um, don't know how that slipped my mind. I'm honestly not all that good at remembering things sometimes... Back on my move from Cloudsdale, I actually had been planning on moving for quite a while before that, I had just about worked up the nerve to do it just as Tirek was stealing everypony's magic. I guess that could have been the clincher."

"So your move has nothing to do with being a changeling, I guess," Mauve Legato said. She took down a couple of notes.

Pinwheel Dreams seized on the Guard's questioning. "So somepony did suspect you of being a changeling. A guard of Princess Twilight's, was it? Did she authorize it? What did the guard say to you? How did he interact with you?"

One acted a bit pushy and the other was more laid-back with his questioning," Sky answered. He hadn't brought Derpy, his sister, nor Green into this whole thing thankfully, but perhaps it would have been better to mention them...

Muckraker blinked at Topaz's suggestion. The idea sounded bad as it would get her in big trouble. Then again it's herself that would be having her reputation destroyed, but rather the real Muckraker. So the imposter nodded in agreement.
"Very well." said Muckraker, "When should I 'fess up', Smoky? After the current meeting perhaps?"

Smoky Topaz scratched her muzzle. "Well, I was going to suggest just to wait until they start investigating you, but I suppose it'd look better if you just did it outright. After all, the Agrarians value Honesty above all else, so they -- and everyone else, really -- might go easier on you if you make the confession look unpressured. Tell Princess Luna that you want to make a special announcement to the floor before the deputies cast their votes, and then you can tell your story. Now go! It seems the other bathrooms are all crowding up..."

Pinwheel Dreams nodded again. "Thank you."

"Mr. Sprinter," said Butter Gun. "I'd like to know before I ask my next question -- have you had contact with other changelings in your life besides your family?"

I don't remember much of what this changeling said to me when I did, but I do remember Queen Chrysalis being mentioned. I wasn't too sure what to do afterwards either. Just knowing that there was another like me, it was kinda crazy for me to think of. This was before Prince Razor Wing and his fellow changelings showed up, a short time before if I remember correctly."

"Oh, okay," said Butter Gun. She stared aimlessly into the room for a second. Don't remember much of what he said... Queen Chrysalis... Something told her there was something that might have been a little scary going on in that encounter. She wouldn't be surprised if spies were already among them. She then brought herself back to the questioning. "So, have you, or anyone in your family had an interest in joining the Royal Guard, and if so, would you or any of them feel more comfortable joining the Guard if they could do so openly?

"I never really thought about joining the guard before, but it's possible. I'd definitely be more comfortable in joining without having to keep up my disguise all of the time if I were to join," Sky replied. He had never truly thought about joining the guard, but now it seemed like a viable option and the discipline he would learn could definitely improve his life. He was always one for following orders made by those above him, his parents and the Equestrian government for example, and so there was a possibility that perhaps such a life could actually be a positive.

Butter Gun nodded and smiled.

Willowshire spoke up. She needed to confirm something that Professor Valleyfall had also mentioned in her book. "Mr. Sprinter, how did you know that the being you encountered was a changeling? I assume that it didn't come to you looking like one. Or am I wrong about that?"

Willowshire wasn't quite satisfied. "But I mean how, sir. Like, did it speak to you in Changeling? Did it communicate with you telepathically? Or maybe I should ask how it knew you were a changeling. Professor Valleyfall said that changelings are able to identify each other by smell... do you know if that's true, and if so, if changelings do have some sort of unique smell that ponies can't smell? Do they--"

"One at a time, Willowshire," Potter Black interrupted.

"I don't think there's a rule against it," Willowshire replied.

"There isn't," said Diamond Waltz.

"Well, it's not really a good idea to inundate the witness with questions," said Cherry Ranger.

"Hmm. Well, I forgot what I was going to ask after that one," said Willowshire. She then turned to Sky. "Did you get all that, Mr. Sprinter?"

Willowshire wasn't too happy with the response, but that was the response. "Okay, I see."

Regal Trotter, a Rose unicorn on the Social Justice Committee, looked at Sky with a mean and skeptical eye. "So Mr. Sprinter, you said that you've never learned much about your fellow changelings when you were young? How did your parents even get to Cloudsdale?"

"My father is born and raised in Cloudsdale and my mother moved to Cloudsdale a year prior to my birth," Sky said in answer. On the lack of education about his fellow changelings he said, "My mother always told me that she wanted me to live as much of a normal life as possible. I guess part of that was knowing as little as possible about who I really was."

Roma Byzantina wrote:"My father is born and raised in Cloudsdale and my mother moved to Cloudsdale a year prior to my birth," Sky said in answer. On the lack of education about his fellow changelings he said, "My mother always told me that she wanted me to live as much of a normal life as possible. I guess part of that was knowing as little as possible about who I really was."

"Little as possible..." Regal Trotter trailed off, and shook his head.

Butter Gun received the testimony more positively. "Has your mother or father ever expressed hope that changelings and ponies would be able to live together peacefully and openly?"

"Actually, this is quite possibly the worst thing that I could do according to my mother. She was always very dismissive of the idea whenever I would bring it up when I was younger. I would guess the recent events would give her hope though. After the invasion of Canterlot, she made especially sure to tell me that there was no possibility of peace between ponies and changelings and that that the invasion was the final clincher," Sky replied with a bit of shame. What would his mother think when she finds out that he did this?

Muckracker nodded. Though she still hopes that this would ruin whatever reputation the real Muckraker has.
"Very well, Miss. Smoky Topaz." said the imposter before leaving the bathroom and heading to Princess Luna's office.
The Princess of the Night was surprised by Muckraker's visit, but not disturbed as she clearly didn't really have anything to do at the moment. She smiled at Muckraker warmly. However, she she sensed something... odd, about her visitor.
"Why hello, Miss. Muckraker." greeted Luna, "How may I help you?"
Muckraker gave her a nervous look, both real and pretend. She was nervous about how Smokey Topaz's plan would work out. However, she also wanted to pretend to be ashamed about the lie she made during the meeting.
"Princess Luna, before the vote, I would like to make a special announcement." said Muckraker.
"Oh?" said Princess Luna, giving Muckraker an odd look, "What sort of announcement?"
"I prefer to tell you when I'm ready, which will be during the vote."
"I see." said Luna, after giving Muckraker a long look, "I shall allow your announcement to take place as you wish."
"Thank you." said Muckraker, before leaving the office, returning to her comrade, Smokey Topaz.
Luna puzzled her chin afterward. There was something off about Muckraker, but she couldn't quite put her hoof on it.

Butter Gun's smile fell a bit. "Okay, Mr. Sprinter."

Willowshire had yet another question inspired by Professor Valleyfall. "Mr. Sprinter, both Princess Twilight and Professor Valleyfall differentiate between active and passive love-feeding. Twilight seems to imply that changelings can go for long periods on just passive feeding and ordinary food alone while Professor Valleyfall says that changelings have to active-feed at least once a day or else they experience disorientation and other maladies. And you said, I remember, that you had to learn how to best feed without harming anypony. From your experience, which is more correct? How often do you active-feed?"

"I only ever need to active feed only one in a while, if I had to put a number to it I would say at least once a month, without suffering from fatigue and other starvation-related symptoms. Everypony is different in how much active feeding they can take before some sort of negative effect happens. Some ponies might be able to be fed off of for months at a time actively, meanwhile another pony might only be able to take a minute or two of active feeding. I had to learn when to tell if a pony has been fed off of too much," Sky replied.

"I see," said Willowshire. She was also pleased that he had answered her next question as well; that is, how long it takes for a pony to feel symptoms of being active-fed on.

"Do you active-feed off of anypony in particular?" asked Axle Lemony, finally breaking his silence. Potter Black smiled in surprise.

Sky shifted a bit before answering, "Um, when I was younger it was mostly off of my parents and my sisters, but nowadays, it's mostly my sister." Familial love was the easiest kind of love for him to acquire after all and easily gained through hugging and the various other ways that family members show love.

Axle listened. He wrote down a note and passed it to Potter. He made sure he didn't fall back asleep. He didn't, but was still silent.

Potter Black sighed and picked back up the questioning. "Now Mr. Sprinter, we already have Professor Valleyfall's testimony on how active feeding goes about, but how do you do it? Do you do anything in particular to the person you feed on or can you just stand there and suck the love?"

"Well, active-feeding usually happens through either touch, such as a hug between me and a family member, or through an out-pour in love from one pony to me, say for example if I got a gift for my sister then there'd so be a wave of love flowing to me from her. In a word I'd say both," Sky replied.
