Celestia burst in through the Throne room doors, decked out in a full set of her specially-made armour, weapon sheathed as carrying that with her hooves and climbing any form of sharp incline was just not practical. Her magic was still sapped and even her strength was no longer magically-enhanced, but her pure, physical strength would still put her head and shoulders, no pun intended, above even the most dedicated bodybuilding Earth Pony. She had no idea what had occurred between Cadence, Shining Armour and anypony or anyone else in the Throne Room but judging by the way Cadence was holding her rapier and standing beside her husband...
It was safe to say that any kind of negotiations had broken down.
"If any of you want to live! Drop your disguises and your weapons! This is your only warning!" She bellowed into the room, unsure if Cadence had de-masked all the Changelings but she was not willing to take any chances. Once in the room, she grabbed her massive weapon with her hooves, her wing deftly sliding it within reach, and held it between her hooves Griffon-style. She'd always been prepared to fight without magic, she insisted upon it, and her mixture of staff and morningstar burst to life with a fire that seemed to burn with an intensity that looked like it should be too hot to hold yet the Princess of the Sun was unfazed. "If any of you harm my niece, I will drag you to Tartarus myself!" She said, warning the Changelings. If any of them knew about the kidnapping, then they would probably know that wasn't a threat.
It was a promise.
