Dygon’s chambers

“WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?” Luna screamed throwing open the doors to Dygon’s cell

“Meaning of what?”Dygon responded from his nest

“THIS!” exclaimed Luna summoning a letter from her sister detailing the deal she made with the dragon

“Oh for a second there I thought you were here about the guards.”

“What guards?” Luna quieted down suddenly deep in thought

“These.” Dygon gestured at the small pile of unicorns at his feet.

“What did you do that for?”

“I need more power to crush Michael and bring the human here without killing him; so if you’ll excuse me.” Dygon said with a dismissive tone

“Let me help you.”

“You will not like the things I’ll have to do.”

“I don’t care I can’t lose my sister again.”

Dygon placed his claw on Luna’s horn adding her power to the spell he had in place.

Dygon opened the portal to Michael’s world

“First to be rid of his constructs”

“But these are ponies!”

“Yes shameful copies to cause that very reaction.”

Dygon planted the spell in everypony he could find tearing each one apart at the molecular level
“What is the point of this?”

“To acquire atoms for splitting.”

“You plan on using that to destroy it!”

“Did you notice where it is?”

Luna calmed down and followed her stream of magic

“Michael couldn’t have done that!”

“O but he did! He made his world in the one place he thought I wouldn’t look, his own head.”

“His talent for creation is unbelievable!”

“I think he found some leftover creation magic in his travels.”

“You mean like the magic that created The Elements of Harmony?”

“Exactly! The very same magic you used to create The Elements of Darkness to complement them, trapping me in this position.”

“But that is ancient magic! It was so unstable that we almost destroyed Canterlot when we made them!”

“Indeed. That is why we need to use as much destructive force as we can muster.”

“You handle that. I’ll take care of the human’s safe passage.”

“And if I end up killing Michael?”

“As long as this works I don’t care what happens to Michael.”

Dygon was trying to place his magic in a mountain when Michael appeared before him

“I know you hate me, but why try so hard to help your captors?”

“FREEDOM!” Dygon roared

“I could bring you here and restore your eyes.”

“What of the magic that keeps me here?”

“I would create you an entirely new body.”

“You still wield such magic?”

Luna heard all of this from her link to Dygon

No he can’t take Dygon from us! I must find a way to end this quickly or my sister is doomed!

Luna began infiltrating Dygon’s mind, leaving the teleportation spell she was working on unfinished

I must warn Celstia
