Darkness Shrouds Us All

    Meanwhile, we find Princess Luna  stalking all of Ponyville. Nopony was in the immediate area at the time. She saw everything that had happened. An evil smirk ran across her dark blue colored face. "My plan is falling into place," she said to herself. "All of Equestria will soon be shrouded with darkness and miserable lives!" she laughed maniacally. "Rainbow Dash and Applejack...now filled with dark energy...two down,four to go..." she lit a picture of Applejack on fire, the Rainbow Dash picture already burnt to ashes.

    She looked into her mirror. Through her vision, she did not see herself as Princess Luna. She saw herself as Nightmare Moon. "It won't be long now..." she said to the reflection.

    She was unaware of the very presence of a guard that just so happened to go by and overhear everything Luna had said. He was shocked. Once he heard Luna heading for the door, the guard fled from the area. "Who would've known Luna would be responsible for all this?! It was lucky that I went down to the kitchen for water!" he thought to himself. When he made it to his post, he came up with the idea of sneaking into Luna's bedroom to find out more.

    Once the coast was clear, the guard sprinted silently to Luna's bedroom. Before he went in, he looked both ways to ensure nopony was there to see him. Sure enough, he was able to. He slowly crept in the room and started searching. On a table, he found a scroll with writing on it.
