Whispers

She continued to walk under the weather. The sky teared itself apart as she attempted to gallop towards a dim cave. She lay her wet head on the rocks. Shadows swallowed her whole yet she felt as if she was at home.

"Well well, what do we have here? Oh, a bad mare, I see." A voice echoed through the walls. She sat upright at once.

"Who are you?" She squeaked.

"I go by many names, Luna, The pony of shadows, but you can call me Nightmare Moon."

"What do you want from me?! Go away! I'll unleash your worst fear!"

"Hahaha, I AM fear, dear." A shadowy figure stood in front of her. "What I want is simple. You. I can help you, dear, like I helped HER. Too bad she wasn't grateful," "but I can save you from this destiny. I can help you take back what should've been YOURS!" A spark of envy and anger ignited in her heart. The grey pony walked backwards, her eyes fixed on the pony of shadows. She hesitated as she made her decision.

"You will assist me to embrace the fate and destiny that I have yearned for, and what must I give you in return?"

"Nothing you need. Just you, as I said before. I  will take over your mind and soul, and I will speak for you and do what needs to be done on your behalf. Do you accept?"

With a salty and bitter tear running down her cheek, she whispered "Yes, I will do as I must..."

"Good..." It cackled as the shadow grabbed her heart. Darkness stood there, right in front of the terrified mare. It's silver eyes stared at her, the dagger for a pupil as always. It held up its hoof, and with a heavy heart, she grabbed it and shook it. She turned back, watching her shadow change into that of Darkness'. Now, however, she had silver armour that rapped itself around her stomach and neck, her left hoof too. The end of it was a curl, and her helmet had a crown rising from it.

"Is everypony this easy to trick?" She cackled.

Close your eyes, imagine you had a nightmare that made you cower in fear. That made your very senses scream, that made you want to shut your eyes and stop. Imagine it came to life."[|b]
