//-------------------------------------------------------// Temptations -by NightmareArua- //-------------------------------------------------------// //-------------------------------------------------------// Meeting //-------------------------------------------------------// Meeting The black mare scrunched her face up. Sombra was back in her realm? How was this even possible? She heavily sighed, and galloped over to the stallion. "Sombra!" She growled, facing the black stallion. "What in the Equestria are you doing back in this realm?" The alicorn snorted, trying her best to be brave. Sombra turned to the mare, narrowing his eyes. He came close, snarling in her face," You... and that insignificant sister of yours... ruined my beautiful realm.." He locked eyes with her. He then smiled wickedly," I took it back! One mind control spell after another!" He laughed manically. Terror struck her face, as she took a giant hoof step towards him. "You did what, to 'my' realm?" Her eyes, started to tear from pure fear, Her husband, Prince Chris, was gone for his duties. Slowly, she brought herself to narrow her eyes, she wouldn't want him to see her fear. "D'awww, do you feel bad because I retook my kingdom that you crooks took?" He taunted her. "..It was never your kingdom, Sombra. You enslaved those ponies, never gave them a chance." She returned with a growl. "My realm thrives on love, and tolerance. You'll never take it back.""Ahh yes, love and tolerance~" Sombra had an idea. He rubbed across her romantically, smiling a toothy grin,"You know what those sound like?~ Lust and Temptation~" He whispered into her ear. He waited to see her reaction. There was no way in telling how she'd react since Chris wasn't around to stop him. Her face flushed a deep shade of red, and began to back up slowly. "W-What the hay are you talking about?" Arua bit her lip, looking at the dark unicorn before her. That was 'very' unexpected coming from an enemy. He blew up in evil laughter," You are too gullible, Starlight! Come back to me when you specialize in Lies rather than Love..." He turned to walk away, a smug grin on his face. She galloped in front of him, and turned to his face. Arua's face was still flushed, not only by the last remark but of anger as well. "Do you really think I'm going to let you go so easily?" Her pink tail twitched, under tension. He raised an eyebrow at her. His expression melted away. He sighed,"You could have been with me, Arua~" He walked around her," King Sombra and Queen Starlight of the Faerie Realm~" He lit up his horn, shooting a magical image of near endless slaves bringing her all the crystal jewelry she ever wanted. Custom made furniture and another mental image of everypony in the kingdom bowing to her. The king smiled again and came up next to her in reality and pat her head," But you had to waist your 'best day of your life' with that mistake of a stallion, Jack Trade.." He sent her another image of the mane six and Chris with Luna and Celestia in a dungeon. All wearing magical chains and sad expressions of defeat,"Hmm, all well, I guess you are alright with living as scum at the bottom of Celestia's hoof." "He is not Jack Trade... He is Chris C. Ross." Arua flinched, watching the visions. It absloutly disgusted her. The visions of her subjects being captive, esspicaly her family being locked up. The sight of her husband made her eye twitch. Something was wrong with this stallion, he was messed up in the brain. "That's enough Sombra! I'd never be your marefirend, I'm in love with Chris. Not a disgusting monster like you." The alicorn yelled at the top of her lungs. "You need to get out of this empire, before Twilight and the others kick you out." She raised an eyebrow at him. "Take this as a kind gesture. I'm sure you'd rather leave yourself than be kicked out again." Sombra laughed, brushing against her again,"Leave it to you to be the kindest one to me and you know it~" He chuckled,"It's a shame you would turn down this opportunity~ Everything you ever wanted and hundreds of slaves to grant your every need~" He whispered at her ear, giving it a small nibble,"Being the princess of Lies has its perks~" he giggled again,"Besides being married with the king of temptation~" he licked at her ear again, going to her other side. She raised an eyebrow at the large stallion before her. "You don't need slaves to be happy, Sombra. You'd know this if you let love and acceptance into your heart. When you have friends they will be there to back you up, and help you with things. There's no need to enslave them." Arua flicked her ear. "P-Princess of lies?!" Arua shouted at Sombra. He sighed,"That's one thing Celestia always misunderstood about me... and that caused prejudice in you ponies..." And with at, he left as quickly as he'd came, leaving a blushing, but very worried Arua to stand alone in her throne room. She shook her head with a sigh, trying to quit blushing as she walked towards the bathroom.  She splashed water on her face, drying off after a few seconds. She looked in the mirror, putting her hoof up to a sign. Three triangles with an S in the middle was on her cheek, though it was small. She growled, narrowing her eyes. "... He's dead if he comes back...." She headed to her chambers, hopping onto her bed and looking into her soul book. After a while, she put the book away and pulled the covers over her, falling asleep to the soothing silence of the castle.
