Dealing with the Princesses
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThe unknown pony, blind with greed, touched Darkness with a shivering hoof, and began to transform. Her eyes slowly becoming the same dagger, her mane becoming darker than the night. Her breath transformed into soft gasps, her adrenaline was released, and the same armor that rapped itself around her stomach and neck like a snake. She hesitated, she knew what she had to do, but she didn't want to. Nevertheless, she leaped off the cliff and spread her wings. Never had she felt so free, or happy, and yet there was such a large amount of sorrow in her soul. She glided to Canterlot, and instantly discovered a force field had been put up. Noticing a train entering through the protective field, she flew in through a window, covered in her black cloak. As the train came to a halt, she strolled out of the door, her cloak still firmly on her head. The guards surrounded the train station, one threw its spear on her neck.
"Please take your cloak off, we must see and identify you." He growled. Darkness walked by, her horn illuminating, and the tip of the spear melting.
"You could hurt yourself with that..." She laughed.
The guards patrolling the doors of the castle and the corridors were all gone, and the princesses were in a panic. "Sister, what is it?" Luna asked fearfully.
"I... do not know. It's not good, but i shall contact Twilight as quickly as i can..." Celestia answered.
"I don't think you have enough time for that, your 'highness', I believe you are no match for me." Darkness smirked, walking to Celestia.
"Luna, go, Twilight and Cadence..."
"But sister, what about-"
"Go!" Celestia screamed. Luna ran as fast as she could, trying to get to Princess Twilight.
Darkness and Celestia walked in circles. "Could you be that filly, from years ago? That grey mare? That alicorn whom escaped my thoughts for years?"
"I'm flattered you remembered. Yes, I was the pony who hid under the shelter of a table in the corner of an alley. An abandoned one too. I knew not that you were coming to the town. You looked at me with disgust, unlike the other subjects of yours. My wings unfolded and you shrieked. I ran away, and yet you never thought to care for me as you did with Cadenza."
"Cadence was born under my care! I knew not of you!"
"And when you did?"
"I-I"
"Save it." Darkness shot a beam of light that hit Celestia, and the whole of Equestria was filled with light... But not that warm kind, a dark light, impossible, but it was so. Darkness smiled, "The mare in the sun? Not as catchy as Luna's title, but it'll have to do for you." Celestia was gone...
The evil pony waited on Celestia's throne, her crown displayed in a glass case. Luna, Cadence and Twilight crashed through the door. Their horns each pointed at Darkness, threatening her. "Celestia! I've returned-" Luna noticed her crown within the display case, letting out a scream, "You... You loathsome, horrible creature! I... Sister... DESTROY HER!" Their horns were surrounded with an aurora, and they attacked. Darkness' horn shone once, and with that one time, Twilight was trapped in the stars, Luna in the moon, Cadence in a crystal (as a statue to decorate Darkness' castle) and while Celestia was in the Sun, there was only one thing left to do. Destroy the elements, just in case the rebellious fillies, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Rarity, Applejack and Pinkie Pie would try anything. Darkness ordered the guards to bring her a chariot, and make their way to the Everfree Forest.
When the chariot landed, she walked down the stairs, and looked at the harmony tree.
