Pilly has been punished. She committed a crime.

Pilly couldn't lay down, as there was no floor. She was just falling. And also feeling a lot of pain. Excruciating pain. She was suddenly shrunk down to the size of a smaller than normal caterpillar, and was surrounded by worms.

 

Pilly twitched its antennae, terrified. Was this a dream? No, no it wasn't. Pilly didn't have dreams. But it hurt...how could it be anything but a dream? Was it possible for anything real to hurt so much? And the worms...oh, the worms. If anything, they hurt most of all. They were a reminder of everything Pilly was not, and never would be. Perhaps they were ugly, and legless, and slimy, but they were loved. They were useful. Somehow, without any of the benefits Pilly had, they were so much better than any caterpillar. Pilly writhed, wishing for a way to make it stop. If only it was a worm. Surely life must be easier as a worm. No obligation to eat until you grew and grew and grew in the hope that someday you might become something beautiful, if you didn't die first. No one expected anything of you. Maybe, Pilly supposed, it would be better that way. Pilly was not worthy of being a caterpillar.

And that realization hurt more than anything else.

Admiral Worm came out from behind a tree and laughed evilly.

Time for Pilly to become butterfly.

Pilly felt the same message go through her head, over and over again. Please do not eat the trees, marvelous caterpillar. Pilly was suddenly back in the forest. she watched and saw daily life in the forest. The birds, beavers, squirrels, all the other animals that depended on those trees to live. Then she saw them all sad, as their tree was missing and had nowhere to go. Pilly felt the urge to caterpillar cry and help them while the message continued playing on repeat.

Quote

This physically pains me to write, as this is like one of your un-evelist characters. Just make Pilly feel sorry for destroying the trees.

Ezrium brought them to his space ship thing. It looked like a very large maple leaf.

"This is it! It can travel through space, and time!"

Yeah no seriously, does the shard want me to become a villain? I write evil Eddie? That's fine. Siylna? Fine. Zira? Fine. I TRY TO WRITE A WHOLESOME CATERPILLAR? NO LETS KILL IT AND MAKE IT SUFFER AS MUCH AS WE CAN. A happy child wraith? I KNOW, LETS BREAK ITS MIND MULTIPLE TIMES!!

Pilly looked around at all the life, the creatures, their pain. Were they worth more than her? Did they deserve joy? Did they deserve life more than she did? No, they didn't. Pilly knew, without a doubt, that they wanted her dead. That they didn't care about her. So why should she care about them? Why should she starve just so that they could live their meaningless lives? No. No. She wouldn't. Pilly twitched her antennae, and a chrysalis began to form around her. It was a deep, beautiful magenta. It was magnificent. If Pilly could smile, she would have.

Ezrium led Elan onto the ship.

Within her chrysalis, Pilly started to regain consciousness.

Pilly still couldn't see any of her friends or the forest. She felt the guilt of destroying the trees. The sadness the other animals felt now that they didn't have a tree. She felt like she should apologize.

JUST MAKE PILLY APOLOGIZE, PLEASE!

No, she didn't. And she didn't go by Pilly anymore. She was more than just Pilly the very hungry caterpillar. Now....now she was Pylenia, and she was a butterfly.

But not so fast! Pylenia broke out of her chrysalis, spread her wings, and flew. No more a chubby little caterpillar, now she was elegant, graceful. Her beautiful black and purple wings were enticing to watch, even as they beat so powerfully they destroyed everything that was left of the forest. She landed on the ship and glared down at the little humans.

Pylenia flicked her long tongue at them (butterfly tongues are terrifying, google it) and knocked them aside. She flicked it again, crushing a part of the ship. 

You are nothing. The words seemed to echo into everyone’s minds.
