//-------------------------------------------------------// Fallen From The Stars -by The Dead DJ- //-------------------------------------------------------// //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 2: The Great Escape //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 2: The Great Escape Fallen From The Stars Chapter 2: The Great Escape General Grievous began to wake up and found that his head was in pain and his body felt like crap. He opened his eyes and looked around. Grievous got off of the ground and saw that there was nothing in the room but a bucket. One of the walls was just iron bars going up and down. He walked to them and went to go grab one of his lightsabers out of his cape. But he then notice that his lightsabers where gone. "Gggrrrrrr." he looked over to the door lock. He took a few steps back and then slammed his foot at the door's lock. Grievous began to crush the lock with his foot. When he had a good grip, he tore the lock right out of the door. As he tore the lock out the door swung open and hit the wall. The door gave a loud ring when it hit the wall. He walked out and looked around and saw nothing but a hall to his right. Grievous made his way down the hall and pasted a few empty sells. He then found a door that lead up and out of dungeon. He followed the steps up and came to another door. Grievous opened it and found three royal guards walking towards him. "Hay! Stop in the name of th-" the guard was interrupted by General Grievous's grappling hook grabbing him in his chest armor. He was lunched off of his hoofs and he got swung into the ceiling and back into the stone flour. The two other guard ran at Grievous. He pulled the grappling hook rope and swung the guard at the two other guards. When the guard landed on the two guards, they collapse onto the flour and where inches from Grievous's feet. The two royal guards where trying to get up, but got grabbed at their necks. "Where are my things?" "The royal guard will never help yo-." General Grievous tightened his grip around the guard's neck. "Your stuff is with Princess. Please don't kill us." said the other guard. "Where is she?" "They're in the throne room. Start ahead." he then slammed the two guards together and knocked them out cold. He walked down the hall and came to a big door. Grievous kicked the door open and found the purple pony and Celestia. They gasped in surprised. Before anypony could say anything, Grievous launched at the purple pony and grabbed her at the neck. "Where are my things?" Twilight looked over to a table with a purple and gold, jewel encrusted box. The table was by what looked like a thrown. Then he saw Celestia shooting a ball of light. The ball of light was heading straight for him. Grievous acted fast and threw Twilight at ball of light. As soon as Twilight hit the ball, it exploded. Twilight was blasted to a corner in the room. Celestia gasped at what just happened. While Celestia ran over to Twilight, Grievous ran to the box and grabbed his things out of it. Grievous then turned around to find Celestia holding Twilight. Grievous took advantage of the moment and charged at her. But then they disappeared in a yellowish like white flash. Then 12 royal guards bucked down the door and saw Grievous. One of the guards said. "Get him!" Grievous began to back away from the 12 royal guards. He then backed into a big colored window and the royal guards began to close in on him. "You lose." said Grievous. Then he jumped into the window and began to plummet down to the city. Grievous then shot his grappling hook at the Castle. The grappling hook grabbed the wall. He then landed in the city square. He saw terrified ponies looking at him and running away. He then saw 4 royal guards coming his way. Grievous grabbed his lightsabers and gave them a spin. He then charged at the guards. Grievous cut the guards down one by one like they where nothing. Grievous began to run down the street. He ran for about 4 minutes he then found what looked like a train station. There were 5 guards guarding the station. As soon as they saw Grievous, they began to attack him. Two of them began to fly up in the air, While the other three (one without a horn or wings) charged at Grievous. The one without a horn or wings tried to tackle him ended up being cut in half. The two unicorns shot a white blast of magic at Grievous. Grievous deflected the blast of magic and charged at the unicorns. The two pegasi landed right in front of him, blocking his way towards the unicorns. They then lunched themselves at Grievous and he cut them in pieces. Then he got blasted back by the two unicorns. Grievous landed with at thud. He got back up to see the unicorns shooting beams of light at him. Grievous screamed in anger and pain. He fell onto his his knees, gasping for air. When the unicorns where close enough, he quickly grabbed them at their necks. "If *Deep Breathing* you think that will stop me then think again. *Cough*." Grievous split his arms and grabbed his lightsabers off of the ground. He flicked the switch on the lightsabers and watched as the was blood gushing out of the ponies’ mouth. Grievous then dropped them bloody ponies and headed to the train station. The train station manager look as if he saw death himself. "Please don't hurt me, please don't hurt me, please don't hurt me!" cried the pony. Grievous grabbed him at the neck and said. "Shut up and get me out of here! Or you'll end up like them." "Yes sir." whimpered the earth pony. They got into the train and made their way out of Canterlot. 15 minutes later As the train made its way out of Canterlot, Grievous got on top of the train. He looked into the distance and saw 20 pegasi guards flying in his direction. "Can't this thing go any faster?" "No. The train is at full speed." "Gggrrrrrr!" The pegasi guards where getting closer to the train. Soon ten of the guards where on the train, while the other ten where in the air "You are outnumbered and out matched. Surrender now, while you have the chance." "Surrender? Never!" Grievous launched at four guards in front of him and gave them all a stab in the chest. Six guards in the air dove down behind him. Grievous jumped backwards and grabbed the two of the guard's heads with his feet. He crushing the two guard's heads in like an egg. As he was grabbing the two guard's heads, he gutted the other four in mid air. Grievous then landed on the dead bodies that were on the train. Grievous had just killed 12 guards under a minute. "Pathetic...I expected a challenge. *Cough*" Grievous stepped closer to them. They looked in horror at the monster that just killed their brothers. "You will pay for this." said one of the guards. "*Cough* I am the most dangerous living thing in the galaxy. You have no idea-" then the front of the train blew up in flames. All of the guard flew into the air in the panic. The front of the train want off of the tracks and Grievous began to fall into the forest below. End of Chapter 2: The Great Escape //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 3: New Friends //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 3: New Friends Fallen From The Stars Chapter 3: New Friends As Grievous began to fall to the forest below, he glided to the cliff's wall. When Grievous was close enough, he dug his claws into the cliff wall. He then came to a stop and looked over to the train and watched as it descended into the deep green forest below. As soon as the train hit the ground, the cliff began to rumble. Rocks and boulders started to fall over the cliff. Even a tree fell over the side of the cliff and nearly took Grievous down with it. As soon as rocks stopped falling, he began to clime the cliff side like a spider. He stabbed his claws in the cliff and pulled himself up again and again. When he got to the top, he took a deep breath. Grievous inhaled the beautiful taste of fresh air. He looked over the landscape and saw the castle that he had just escaped from. He saw a few towns and lot's of different things. But then something cote his eye. He saw a very old-looking castle. It look like it was abandoned. It also looked like it was in ruins. He then decided that this is where he would go. He took a deep breath of air and then began to clime down to the forest below. When Grievous made it to the bottom of the cliff, he ventured in to the forest. About 15 minutes after entering the unknown forest, he began to have the feeling that something is stalking him. He tuned around and saw some greenish yellow glowing eyes staring at him. Before he could do anything, a four legged, wooden like, wolf, pounced on Grievous. He instantly through the Wolf off of him and before the wolf got back up, he stabbed it in the chest. The wolf cried and howled as Grievous's lightsaber dug into its chest, then it's greenish yellow glowing eyes faded out to black. Then three more wolves joined the attack. He grabbed his other lightsaber. The three wolves were circling around him as the Wolves snarled at Grievous. He was not intimidated by them. In fact, he wasn't intimidated by almost anything. Then they all pounced on him at once. Grievous then did a quick spin, pointing his two lightsabers at the Wolves. The two lightsabers cut the wood like wolfs in half. They fell to the ground and laid there with their neon green blood on fire. There blood lit like gasoline, their bodies engulfed in flames. The flames exploding from the inside out of the wood like wolves. He then left the dead burning bodies and made his way to the castle. After an half hour, he finely made it to the castle. All that stood in his way was an very unstable bridge going across a cavern. He stepped on the first plank and it almost instantly broke into two. He stepped back and thought of how to get across. Then he came up with an idea. He took about five steps back and ran. When he was at the edge of the ravine, he jumped up into the air and landed on the other side. He opened the old door and walked in. As he ventured though the castle, he found a library. The library was very huge and old and dusty looking. He then began to hear voices in one of the rooms on the second level of the library. He made his way up the stairs. The stairs made creaking sounds when he stepped on them. When he was at the top, he found a door. The voices where coming from behind the door. "It's you're turn." whoever it was behind the door said. It most defiantly a male voice. "Can we stop playing games and get back to the plans!" this one was female. "Oh, I see... I guess you are not happy that you are back from the grave then.  I guess I'll just put you back." he said with a chuckle at the end. "NO! We need to find out WHERE that thing came from. That thing came though a portal that had enough magic to level-down Canterlot and more! If we find where that amount of magic came from, we would be able to destroy anything that got in our way." she exclaimed. Grievous opened the door and spoke. "I think I would like to know too." Grievous saw a creature with all types of animal parts. He was sitting in a floating chair. On the other side of the long, old wood table, there was a pony with a horn and wings. This pony was as big as Celestia, but her coat was as black as night and had a flowing main that looked like the night stars. They were playing some sort of card game. They looked shocked for a moment, until the creature spoke. "Well, well, well, I haven't seen you before?" the creature had gotten off of his chair and with a snap of his fingers, the chair disappeared in a little poof of smoke. The creature walked up to Grievous and was looking at him like he was examining him. Grievous was looking at him the same way. Then the black pony spoke up. "How DARE you interrupt us! HOW MUCH did you hear!" she slammed her front hoofs on the table. She was going to say something else, but was interrupted by the creature. "Now, now Nightmare, we have a guest here and we have to be nice to our guests." he said with an almost evil and insane smile on his weird face. "Now, who are you?" there was silence in the room. Grievous broke the silence and said. "I am General Grievous, commander of the droid army and leader of the Sepratists." "Well, I'm Discord, lord of chaos and disharmony! And this is my friend, Nightmare Moon." Grievous looked over to Nightmare Moon and said to her. "I am the thing you have been talking about. *Coughing* I would like to find out where the source of this magic came from that got me here in the first place. *Coughing*" General Grievous was coughing very loudly now. Nightmare Moon gasped that this General Grievous was indeed the thing she was talking about and was right in front of her. Before Nightmare Moon could speak, Discord said. "Need a tissue?" Discord said this most obnoxiously with a stupid smile. Grievous just stared at him. His eyes were perusing into Discord's soul. "I'll take that as a no." Discord kept his obnoxious voice, but Discord's best poker face couldn't stop Grievous from seeing the fear in his eyes. "So you’re the thing that landed in Canterlot?" Nightmare Moon asked, still a little shocked. "Yes." "Then do tell me how you got out of Canterlot and ended up here." "The long version or the short version? *Coughing*" "The more detail the better." she replied. " *Coughing* Well when I landed, I awoke and opened up the pod's hatch and got out. I saw the two Princesses." "What! YOU talked to Princes Celestia and Princes Luna!" burst out Nightmare Moon. "Yes. *Coughing* And now LET me continue." the black pony shut her mouth and got relaxed in her chair. Discord snapped his finger and his chair appeared. He sat in it sideways and was drinking chocolate milk. Grievous talked about his conversation with Princesses. Nightmare Moon seemed to hate the Princesses. She paid most attention to ever word he had to say. But Discord on the other hand, was doing the opposite. He did all kinds of things that annoyed Grievous, like playing with his tail, making comments on what he was talking about, and he even drinking the glass instead of the chocolate milk. But what got General Grievous ticked-off was that Discord tried to tell the story of how he got turned into stone by the Princesses. But as soon as he mentioned the six ponies that tried to attack him. Discord stopped what he was doing and Nightmare Moon paid all of her attention on him. "You really faced the Elements of Harmony!?" asked Discord most surprised. "Yes and when they began to fire their pathetic rainbow I *Coughing* cut though it like nothing was there."  both Nightmare Moon and Discord gasped. "Y-y-you defeated the E-Elements of H-H-Harmony!" said Nightmare Moon wide-eyed with her jaw dropped and was now total shock. Discord began to back away in his levitating chair, staring at Grievous to see anything that said to a lie. He found nothing in his snake like yellow eyes. "Did you kill any of them?" asked Discord. "No. But I almost did kill one of them. But I got kicked in the head and blacked out before I killed it." Grievous continued to tell them how he got out of Canterlot and how he killed 12 royal guards under a minute. He told them how the train fell and how he killed the Timber Wolfs with his lightsabers. And then told them how he got here. After he finished, Nightmare Moon asked. "You killed 12 royal guards under a minute? I'm impressed." "But I am not; those guards are nothing, but a bug under my foot." "Do you think it is safe to say, Nightmare Moon?" asked Discord. "I think it's safe to say." replied Nightmare Moon. "What are you talking about?" asked Grievous. "We have been looking for an alliance with somepony that is most powerful as us. And you my friend fit the bill." said Discord. "Welcome to the club!" said Discord. End of Chapter 3: New Friends //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 5: Memories Of The Past //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 5: Memories Of The Past Fallen From The Stars Chapter 5: Memories Of The Past "What!?" said Nightmare Moon. "Why would we go there?"  Nightmare Moon asked "If we are going to defeat Celestia, then we will need some dark magic." said Discord with an evil smile. "How are we going to get-" Nightmare Moon then cut herself off. "No no no no! We are not going to bring back King Sombra!" said Nightmare Moon, sounding very worried. "That's not what I meant. King Sombra has a secret room that is filled with dark magic. We will need to get ten dark red crystals if the plan is going to work." "How do you know of this room?" Nightmare Moon asked. "We all have are secret Nightmare, now is everypony ready!" said Discord "Ready for wha-" Grievous was interrupted by bright white flash. As soon as he could see again, he was no longer in the castle. They were in some sort of blizzard. "WHERE THE HELL ARE WE?!" shouted Grievous. The wind was so hard on them, that they could barely hear each other. "THIS IS AS CLOSE AS I COULD GET US." shouted back Discord. Discord now had a big fluffy blue coat with a hood. He also had a candle lite lamp in his bird like hand. Nightmare Moon and Grievous followed Discord through the freezing blizzard. Then they got to a some sort of pink shelled barrier. "I GOT THIS!" said Nightmare Moon, about to the blow a hole the in the shelled barrier. "NO! WE CAN'T JUST BLAST A HOLE IN IT!" said Discord while stopping her. "GOT IT!" Discord and Nightmare Moon looked over to Grievous and saw that he cut a big hole in the shelled barrier. "GOOD WORK!" said Discord. They went through the hole before the shelled barrier began to heal itself. Grievous took a deep breath of the fresh like summer air. Discord and Nightmare Moon shuck the snow off. "Here's the plan, Nightmare Moon, go take out the guards on the outer walls and in the air, I will go make some chaos, and... General Grievous... go do what you do best!" after Discord said that, they began their attack. Princess Cadence was in the throne room reading some letters. But then she heard a familiar voice. "Hello my love." she instantly levitated the letters onto the little desk on the side of the throne. She looked over to where the sweet voice came from. "Shining." she said most excitedly. "I got you something." Shining Armor then showed her a bundle of pink crystal flowers. He levitated the flowers to her. She grabbed them with her magic. "Awwwww. Thank Shining-" her eyes widened and  her ears perked up. She dropped the flowers and they shattered as they hit the floor. "Cadence! are you all right?" asked Shining Armor while running over to her. "Something wrong... Something very wrong!" Princess Cadence ran over to the balcony to see total chaos! The sky was dark, there where pink clouds that had chocolate rain poring out of it. House where flouting upside down and ponies where screaming and running everywhere. Everything was in total chaos. Shining Armor ran over to her too see the horrific site. "Princess Cadence and Shining Armor! We are under attack!" said a Crystal Guard. "Send all royal guards to protected the the castle." "Yes sir!" said the Crystal Guard while running to give the orders. "It's going to be ok Cadence." said Shining Armor. Cadence was breathing very deep, trying to calm down herself. "We can't let them take the Empire." Cadence said very firmly. "I know." replied Shining Armor. "We have to send a letter to Celestia." said Cadence. Then a Crystal Guard came flying out of the door. He fell to the floor with a hole in the chest and blood gushing out of his mouth. "WHO'S NEXT!" General Grievous came to a big door. The door was made out of thick wood and iron bars. The iron bars where going up, down, and across. Grievous stabbed all of his lightsabers into the armored door and began to cut a circle. As soon as the circle was complete, he kicked it and made his way though the hole in the door. As he made his way down a hall and found 6 Crystal Guards. The 6 Crystal Guards charged at him. Grievous just cut them down and walked bast the blood and guts that he painted of the walls and floor. Grievous just gutted and sliced anything that stood in his way. He also used terror to scare ponies off, but he gave no mercy. No mercy to anything or anypony. He soon came to a lone guard on his knees, begging for his life. Grievous then grabbed the stallion at his neck and stabbed the lightsabers into his chest. He watched as the blood gushed out of the stallion's mouth. Grievous watched as the ponies slowly died right in front of him. He saw pure terror and pain in his eyes, Grievous liked it. No he din't just liked it, he loved it. And when the guard finely died, Grievous threw the life-less stallion in to a big door. The door opened, he saw two ponies with horror in their eyes. "WHO'S NEXT!" shouted Grievous, covered in spots blood. Almost every inch of him was covered in his victims blood. The white stallion jumped in front of the pink mare and lit his horn. "You!" shouted Shining Armor as he shot a big blast magic. Grievous stood there and deflected the blast with his lightsaber. The blast of magic went strait back to Shining Armor and blasted him into the wall by his own magic. Grievous turned his attention to the pink alicorn. She ran over to the white unicorn. "Shining! Wake up Shining! Shining please!" she said with tears in her eyes. "Pathetic. I expect more of a fight-" Grievous was then stoked by lightning and flue a few feet in the air. He landed on his feet. "RRRRRAAAAAAAA!" screamed Princess Cadence in pear anger. Her eye were glowing white. She had lightning coming out of her horn. Then they disappeared in a white flash. Then Nightmare Moon and Discord came in a white flash. "What happened to you? Your covered in-" Nightmare Moon was interrupted by Grievous saying. "I did what I do best." Nightmare Moon drooped her jaw and had a look of shock. "But two of them escaped. *Coughing*" said Grievous. "Who?" asked Discord. Nightmare Moon still speechless and was staring at Grievous, more or less at the blood. "A pink alicorn and a white unicorn." said Grievous while putting his light sabers away in his cape . "Hhhhhmmmm." hummed Discord. "We have no time! We must find where the crystals are! Discord, where are they." asked Nightmare Moon, snapping out of her shock and looking at Discord with panicked eyes. "I spy with my eyes." said Discord as he took out his eyes and began to juggle them. "Something...PURPLE!" said Discord. He then put his eyes back into his eye sockets. "Is he serious?" asked Grievous. "He is." replied Nightmare Moon. "Well who wants to go first!?" asked Discord. Nightmare Moon was about to say something, but was interrupted by Grievous. "NO! I am not going to play your little game. If Nightmare Moon is right, then we have no time to lose. We have to find these crystals now. No time for your pathetic games." Discord was taken back by this. "Find then. Nightmare Moon, use your dark magic on the big crystal on the throne." said Discord, pointed to the big pink crystals on the top of the throne. Nightmare Moon then lit her horn. Her eyes and horn glowed green, black, and purple. The crystals then turned black and then revealed a stairway underneath the floor. "This way." said Discord. Nightmare Moon and Grievous followed Discord down the stairs. "You know you got to lighten up General Grievous. It's not healthy you know." said Discord with a chuckle at the end. Grievous just growled at him. Discord sighed at this and said. "Here we are." they where at the bottom of the stairs. There was a door, Grievous was about to open it, but was stopped by Discord. "You do not want to do that." said Discord. "Why would I not want to open a door?" asked Grievous. "Because that door leads to you greatest fears. And also that's not the way. Yet." said Discord. Grievous at the looked door, then back at him. "Then were is the way?" said Grievous, still looking around the room. Discord then snapped his fingers and a red horn appeared in his hand. "No no no no no NO! You said that you where not going to bring back Sombra!" said Nightmare Moon. Discord gave a evil smile and then stabbed the red horn into the black crystal on top of the door. The door became a glowing green, black, and purple portal. "Ladies first." said Discord with an even more evil smile then before. "What- " Nightmare Moon then got shoved into the dark portal. "If your still alive say I'm ok." said Discord while putting his head inches away from the portal. a few secants latter, Discord got a hoof punched into his face. He fell back words and landed on his butt. "HOW DARE YOU TRY TO HARM US!" said Nightmare Moon with her eyes glowing white with anger. Discord just laugh as heard as he could of the stone floor. She walked over to Discord and began to levitate him off of the ground. Discord was still laughing like a child. Nightmare Moon then threw him into the portal and looked over to General Grievous. "You have no idea what I had to deal with this last week." said Nightmare Moon, now calming down. "If I had to deal with him for a week, *Cough* I would had killed him before the first day ended. *Coughing*" said Grievous. "Hahaha!" laugh Nightmare Moon. But she soon realized that this was not a joke. "Oh... Never mind." said Nightmare Moon, blushing a little. "We better catch up with Discord now." said Nightmare Moon as she trotted over to the portal. She enter the green, black, and purple portal. but then General Grievous said something that stopped her in his tracks. "Why is Discord the leader?" Nightmare Moon turned around and looked at him. "Well uh..." Nightmare Moon began to trail off. Grievous was about to say something, but was interrupted by Nightmare Moon saying. "He is a god." "God? Like immortal?" asked Grievous "He is the god of chaos and gods are immortal." said Nightmare Moon "Nothing is immortal. *Cough* Everything dies." said Grievous. Then Discord popped his head out of the portal and said. "Well come on, we don't have all day to chit-chat." Nightmare Moon and Grievous nodded to each other and made there way into the portal. Nightmare Moon was the first one to go in, then Grievous. When he entered the portal, he felt a strange flow through his body. But before he could do anything, he was on the other side of the portal. Grievous, Nightmare Moon and Discord where now in a cave like room. The room had all sizes of stalactites from the ceiling and a few stalagmite on the sides of the walls of the dark black, cave. The cave walls and floor was as smooth tile. There where little puddles of water being made by the little drops of water from the stalactites. Discord had his lantern lit and was walking through the darkness, Nightmare Moon and Grievous followed him through the darkness. Nightmare Moon's horn give out a light blue glow so she could see where she was trotting. General Grievous had one of his lightsabers turned on in his right hand. The lightsaber's light green glow didn't reach to the edges of the room like Discord's lantern. Grievous could only see five in-front of him with his lightsaber. Grievous had a weird feeling. He had this feeling when he was finished his training with Count Dooku. When he finished, he then pledged his allegiance to the The Dark Lord himself. "I pledged my allegiance to you and only you my lord." said Grievous. He was on his right knee and keeping his head low. "Good...But..." said The Dark Lord, getting out of his chair. "What, my lord." asked Grievous. "I need to know that you say... The truth." said The Dark Lord walking over to Grievous's left. "My lord, what most I do to prove to you that I am your loyal servant?" said Grievous. "Would you betray me?" asked The Dark Lord, taking deep breaths. "I would never betray you, my lord.*Coughing*" said Grievous. "Would you ever help are enemies?" asked The Dark Lord walking over to Grievous's right. "Never, my lord." said Grievous. "Would you ever allegiance your self with someone?" asked The Dark Lord, now standing right in front of the cyborg. "You are the only allegiance that I have and will ever have, my lord." said Grievous. "Good." said The Dark Lord, now sitting back on his throne. General Grievous's memories where interrupted when they came to a big door. End of Chapter 5: Memories Of The Past //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 6: The Past Of Nightmare //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 6: The Past Of Nightmare Fallen From The Stars Chapter 6: The Past Of Nightmare The door was a rectangle shape and the size was 20 feet tall by 9 feet wide. The door looked like it was made out of some sort of black crystals. There where no door knobs on the door or anything that looked like would open it. The only thing that the door really had was a symbol (http://fc06.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2012/315/e/9/crystal_empire_emblem__sombratic_rule__by_emkay_mlp-d5kpisp.png) at the top of the door. General Grievous walked over to the black crystal door. Discord and Nightmare Moon where too busy arguing to notice the cyborg walking past them. When Grievous came to the door, he put his metallic right hand on the smooth black door. Then suddenly he felt and saw some sort of black magic going through his hand and up his arm. He then realized that he couldn't move any part of his body. Soon the cyborg's body was consumed in the different shades of dark gray and black colored magic. When Grievous was fully covered in the black magic, he then felt pain everywhere in his body. The tremendous amount of pain was so strong that he could barely bar breath. So, he blacked out. Grievous felt like he just woke up from a dream. He got up from the ground and realized that he was no longer in the cave with Nightmare Moon and Discord. Instead he was in a room with all types of decorations of gold and red joules. There was a golden chandelier with red and black crystal hanging off it. There also was black and red tapestry hanging on the walls with that same symbol. There was stone stachus of pony knights with swords and spears in their hooves. There was a long dark wood table with black and red silk like cloth. On the end of the long table was a gray stallion with a read horn and a black main and tail. His eyes where red and had waves of purple coming out of his eyes. The gray stallion also had a deep red cape and a crown on his head. He had a golden chalice with black and red joules embedded in it. "Who has come to see me." said the gray stallion in a mid-evil ton, also taking a sip of some sort of red wine out of his golden chalice. Grievous took a deep breath and said. "I am General Grievous, commander of the droid army and leader of the Sepratists. *Coughing* And you are King Sombra I  presume?" "Yes, I am King Sombra, the MASTER of those crystal ponies slaves and LORD of the Crystal Empire." said Sombra with anger in his tone and drinking some more of the red wine. Grievous then asked him. "Then why are you down here then? *Cough* The ones I saw ruling the Empire where two ponies that ran for their live when they faced me. *Coughing*" King Sombra looked at him with an unbelieving face. "You lie." said the King with sadness on his face, drinking the last of the red wine. "I don't lie. I came with Discord and Nightmare Moon to get some crystal red." said Grievous. "Did you say Nightmare came with you?" asked King Sombra with a little bit of surprisement in his eyes. "Yes she did. *Cough*" said Grievous, looking in Sombra's eyes. "Shes alive." murdered the King. He got out of his chair and walked over to the tall cyborg. "Stay sill." said Sombra, lighting up the room in greed and purple. Grievous blinked and saw that they where no longer in the room, instead they where standing by the big door and where looking at Discord and Nightmare Moon "Nightmare." said Sombra in a genital tone and was walking towards Nightmare Moon. Nightmare Moon took a few steps back and said. "NO Sombra. I still don't forgive you." Nightmare Moon now turned around and totted away from them, with tears in her eyes. "No Nightmare! Waite!" said Sombra, galloping after her. When the two ponies where out of sight, Discord grumbled. "This is awkward." "Whats the problem with those two? *Cough*" asked Grievous. Discord gave a low sigh and said. "Well...When Sombra became king and ruled the Crystal Empire with an iron hoof, he began to feel lonely and sad. He wanted something or somepony to confute him. He decided to used his Dark Magic and created a pony. He named the pony Nightmare and she was like a dater to him, but Sombra wasn't always nice. He was very cruel to her and treated her like one of his slave. Over time hate and anger grew in her and when Sombra was about to get married, she attacked Sombra and ruined the wedding. She then ran away from the Crystal Empire...Forever." Discord posed for a moment and then said. "Then the king of the changelings declared war upon the Crystal Empire. The two King fought over King Sombra bride and bough lost. The king of the changelings may have died with his army, but King Sombra lost his entire army in the battle and with no army he was then defeated by Princes Celestia, Princes Luna." Discord took another pose and then said. "While Nightmare was on the run, she then met Princes Luna. They soon became friends and Nightmare realized that Luna had a ruler or sister that was not far to her. Nightmare felt sad for Luna and knew that she did not deserve the same fate that she had with Sombra. So Princes Luna and Nightmare combined there soul and powers together and they became Nightmare moon. But there power was no mach to stop Celestia and Nightmare moon was banished to the moon for one thousand years." Discord then finished. "That's...*Cough* interesting." said Grievous with uncertainty. Discord then gave another low sigh and said. "And only a few know the truth." then Nightmare moon and King Sombra came back. "Did you two settle things yet?" asked Discord, sounding a little bit annoyed and tired. Nightmare looked over to Sombra and gave a little smile and said. "I think we have come to terms. For now" "Agreed." said Sombra, looking into her eyes with a smile. "We should get those crystals now." said Discord still sounding annoyed. "Ah yes, you came for my dark red crystals, have you not?" said Sombra, now looking at Discord. "Yes we have." replied Discord. Sombra then lit up his horn. Then a big brown bag appeared right nest to Sombra. "Here are the last of my dark red crystals. But before I just give them to you blindly, I want to know why you would need such a rare item." said Sombra, now having his magic around the bag. "I want to kill the Princesses of Equestria." said Discord with an evil smile. End of Chapter 6: The Past Of Nightmare //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 1: The Crash //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 1: The Crash Fallen From The Stars Chapter 1: The Crash "Haaa. Time to abandon ship." said General Grievous as he sent all of the escape pods to launch. "Hhhhaaa *Cough*." as he headed to the Control Ship. Then suddenly a green flash surrounded the escape pod and General Grievous blacked out. It was a nice day in Canterlot. The sun was shining and the ponies were happy. The main six was spending time in Canterlot and shopping with Rarity. As they were trotting to the next store they saw a green flash in the sky. Everypony was blinded for a second. Then a ball of fire crashed into the center of Canterlot. The ground rumbled as it hit Canterlot. "What in tarnations was that!" said Applejack "I don't know." said Twilight. Then the cloud of dust settled and there was a shining metal thing sticking straight up from the ground. "What is it?" said Rainbow Dash "It looks like some sort of metal object." said Twilight. She trotted to it. The others followed her. She lifted her hoof and put it on the pod. "Eee." Twilight quickly yanked her hoof back. "Are you all right Twilight? said Fluttershy. "It's hot. Very hot." then a white flash appeared right behind the 6 ponies. They where blinded for a second. When their eyes could see again, they saw Princes Celestia, Princes Luna, and 4 royal guards. "Twilight step away from it now." said Celestia in a deep voice. "Guards." said Celestia in the deep voice. The 4 royal guards surrounded the pod. "Is there something wrong?" asked Twilight. "Indeed, this thing is not from Equestria, nor from anywhere that we know of." said Luna. "And this thing is a danger to everypony until we know more about it." Celestia finished. Then the pod began to hissing like a snake. Twilight slowly backed up from it. Smoke began to come out of the top of the pod. When the smoke cleared all 12 of them gasped when they saw the most terrifying thing that anypony had ever seen. It slowly looked around and as soon as it saw Twilight, it looked right into her soul. Everypony was scared out of their mind by just looking at this nightmare of horror. Even Princess Celestia was intimated by this thing. Then it gave a deep cough. General Grievous began to look around again. He saw lots of colorful buildings and colorful ponies. He noticed 4 ponies with gold armor and they where surrounding him. The 4 ponies had the look that they were going to attack him. Then he noticed that the purple one that had wings and a horn was backing away and had a look of death on her face. General Grievous was used to this look when he killed Jedi. When Twilight was close enough to Celestia, she whispered in Twilight's ear. "Twilight, go get the elements." Twilight and her friends ran to the castle to go get the Elements of Harmony. "What are you?" Celestia asked her self. General Grievous stepped off of the pod and looked Celestia in the eyes. "I *Cough* could say the same thing about you." Celestia and Luna eyes widen to hear the deep metallic like voice. "What are you?" Celestia was looking him in his eyes now. "If you must know. *Deep breathing* I am General Grievous, commander of the droid army and now leader of the Sepratists." the two alicorns raised there eyebrows at this. "And what is your business being in Equestria, Grievous." asked Luna "You will call me General Grievous and nothing else!" *Coughing*. "You will not talk to the Princess like that!" shouted the one of the guards "Stand down!" barked Celestia. "Yes you highness." the guard did just as she said. "I apologize for that General Grievous. My guards can get protective of my sister and me." said Celestia "I'll say it again. What is your business being in Equestria." asked Luna. "I have no business being on this planet. *Cough* But I asked if you have an alliance with the Republic?" General Grievous put his right hand on one of his lightsabers. The princess looked at each other as if they were having a conversation. "No, we do not have an alliance with this Republic, nor know of it." said Luna. "*Cough*  then may I ask you to join the Septerest then?" Grievous offered his hand. "Why would we join the Septerest?" questioned Celestia. "Because of the war agents the Republic and the Septerest. *Coughing* The reason why you would join the Septerest is because if the Republic where here you would be gun-downed. *Coughing* And left for dead by the Jedi. And your plaint will be a bace for the Republic. But if the Septerest where here then you would be protected and safe from the Jedi scum. *Coughing*" Celestia was not convinced that this Republic and Jedi where so evil. "If you say this Republic and Jedi are so evil then prove it." Grievous gave what sounded like an obnoxious coif and grabbed something out of his cape. "Come here and you will see why the Jedi are so evil. *Coughing*" The princess looked at each other again. "Fine. But if you dare harm us you will face the consequence." "Wouldn't dream of it. *Cough*" Grievous said in his deep evil voice. The two princess trotted over to see what he had to show them. Grievous put it down round metal thing and it showed them a 3D video. "Do it." said Chancellor Palpatine in his deep evil voice. Then Anakin Skywalker decapitated Count Dooku's head. Luna gasped at what she just saw. Celestia kept her poker face on, but still was grossed out by his head being cut off. Then the video ended. "That is why the Jedi are evil." Grievous grabbed it off of the ground "And that old man was Count Dooku. He was the leader of the Sepratset. And if you want to know, he just died today. *Deep Coughing*" Celestia and Luna looked over to the General with sad faces. "I'm sorry for your loss." said Luna. Grievous looked into Luna's eyes. He saw that she was indeed telling the truth. Grievous walked over to pod and lifted himself up and into the pod. He checked the power level. "What do you think he's doing?" asked Luna "I don't kno-." then they heard big growl. "GggrrrrrrAAAAA." Grievous punched the side wall of the pod. It made a dent in the pod. All power was gone. Even the reserve power were gone. He couldn't even send out a distress becon. "Gggrrrrrr." Grievous got out of the pod and looked at the princess with anger. Then twilight and her friends came back with the Elements of Harmony. Grievous looked over to the main six with an evil glare. "You will not harm the princess!" shouted Twilight as they activated their elements. General Grievous wached as they slowly rose off of the ground. Than a rainbow came out of the elements and was heading straight towards Grievous. Grievous grabbed one of his lightsabers with his right metal hand. When the rainbow was about to hit him, he held his lightsaber at the rainbow. The rainbow cut into two as it hit the lightsaber. Grievous was pushing the rainbow back. Then the main six began to come back to the ground. As soon as they look over to where General Grievous was they had a look of horror on there faces. General Grievous was not turned into stone or obliterated into a million pieces. "You think you can just kill me with a pathetic rainbow! Well then, you're dead wrong! General Grievous took off his cape and split his arms into two and grabbed his lightsabers. He then gave his lightsabers a spin. Twilight was in horror of what this thing could do to them. Grievous lunched himself into the air and was going to crush into the six ponies. Five of them moved out of the way, but one of them was scared out of her mind and stood there, shivering. Grievous landed right in front of the yellow pegasus and said. "Pathetic." Grievous put one of his lightsabers back into his cape and then grabbed her by the neck. The yellow pegasus was trying to get out of his grasp. "Easy ki-" Grievous was then got hit by a blast of purple. He got back up and then got kicked in the back by an orange colored pony and fell face-first in to the ground and blacked out. End of Chapter 1: The Crash //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 4: Friendships With General Grievous //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 4: Friendships With General Grievous Fallen From The Stars Chapter 4: Friendships With General Grievous Princes Celestia was in the throne room thinking of what to do next. What am I going to do? Her thoughts were interrupted by 6 pegasi guards. "Princes Celestia, We have news about General Grievous." "What is it, and where are the rest of you?" Celestia asked. "Two of guards are the hospital in shock. The others... Dead." "How could this be, how could 12 of my guards be dead?" Princes Celestia hung her head low. "Your majesty, I believed that General Grievous is dead." "You killed him!?" Celestia looked into his eyes. "No, when we found him on the train we asked him to surrender, but he fought us and took us out like we were nothing." the guards hung their heads low. "So... General Grievous is still at large?" asked Celestia. "No, when he was about to kill the rest of us, the front of the train burst into flames, it derailed and ended in the Everfree forest. General Grievous fell to his death." "I don't think he's is dead. Go! Send 50 Royal Guards to search for his body and if he is still alive, capture him at all cost." the six guards went out to give the order. Celestia went back to her thoughts. I should go check on Twilight and her friends. her thoughts where interrupted again by a guard entering the room. "Your majesty." "Yes." replied Celestia. "Princes Twilight Sparkle has awoken and has asked for you" "Tell Luna that I'll be at the hospital." and with that, Celestia lit her horn and teleported to the hospital. While Twilight was talking to her friends, a bright light suddenly filled the room. All six where blinded for a second. When the six ponies could see again, they saw Princes Celestia. "Princes Celestia!" they said. "Hello my little ponies. I have come to talk to Twilight." "Princes Celestia it is nice to see you." said Twilight very weakly. She was laying in a bed and had all kinds of IVs attached to her. She also had a cast around her neck and her right front hoof. Then a doctor came in. "Princes Celestia!" he said shocked. "How is Twilight." she asked him. "Um...Well, Princes Twilight has suffered a concussion and has severe magic burns all over her body. And has a magic blast mark on her chest." said the doctor. "Will she be ok?" asked Pinkie Pie with her mane deflated and tears in her eyes. "She will get better in time; she is lucky, If the blast wasn't all in one spot she would have died." then the Doctor's got called out by a nurse and he then left the room. "That thing is going to pay for this!" said Rainbow Dash in anger "I agree with you darling on this one, we need to get rid of this horrific monster at once." said Rarity. "I'm goanna to buck that thing so hard that it won’t ever hurt anypony again!" exclaimed Applejack. "That big old ugly meanie is goanna pay!" said Pinkie Pie. "Hey Fluttershy! What do you think we should do to him, since you got attacked as well?" asked Rainbow Dash "Um... I don't know." "WHAT!" said Rainbow Dash in shock. "There hast to be something that you want to do to him?" said Rainbow Dash. "Well...W-when I looked into h-his e-eyes I-I-I...I saw much pain a-and a-anger." "You saw pain and anger in him?" asked twilight. "I also saw in h-his e-e-eyes that he was g-g-going t-t-to kill me." Fluttershy began to cry. Rarity hugged her and said. "It's going to be ok Fluttershy, It's going to be ok." Fluttershy sobbed into Rarity's shoulder. "That monster is goanna to pay for this." grumbled Applejack. Then a guard came into the room and said. "Princes Luna needs to speak to you immediately!" Celestia looked over to Twilight and her friends and said. "I have to go now Twilight." and with that was said, Celestia lit her horn and teleported to Luna. Luna was in the throne room waiting for her sister. Then a bright light filed the room. When Luna could see again, she saw her sister. "Glad to see you sister." said Luna with a smile. Celestia gave a smile and replied. "You too Luna." Luna then gave a deep sigh. "We have letters from other nations, they are worried that if General Grievous enters into their land, then they will blame us for any damages that he causes." said Luna. "Also we found 10 more royal guards dead by his hand. And the press want to know what you’re going to do about it." Celestia let out a deep sigh. "Where are they?" asked Celestia "The usual spot." relied Luna. Celestia let out another deep sigh. She made her way out of the room. She trotted down the hall and made a few turns on the way. As she made her way down the hall, she came to a door that led outside. Celestia opened the door to see a group of ponies of 30 or more. "No cameras, only questions." all of the ponies put down their cameras and had their note pads out. One of the ponies had their hoof up. "Yes what is your question." she said this in a genital tone. "Are we being attacked by the Griffon Kingdom?" asked the reporter. "No, I can assure you that we are not being attacked by other nations." "Then how can you explain that thing falling from the sky and that monster killing 10 royal guards?" asked another reporter. "I don't know how that thing got here and that monster is General Grievous." the reporters began to talk to each other. "You know General Grievous?" asked another reporter. "No, I don't know much about him. But I know that he is very dangerous and if you see him, tell the royal guard as soon as possible." the reporters begun to talk all at once. Celestia began to walk away from the group of reporters and made her way to the throne room. What am I going to do? "WHAT!" exclaimed General Grievous. "We have been looking for an alliance with somepony, that is most powerful as us. And you my friend fit the bill." said Discord again. "No, Why would I join you? *Cough*" Grievous asked "Because! You have the same enemy as us. It is a wise choice to have allies. And as Discord said, you do fit the bill." said Nightmare Moon. Grievous thought of what would be best for him. "One condition, I get off this planet as soon as possible. *Coughing*" Discord and Nightmare Moon looked at each other and had a smile on their faces. "As long as you help us, then we will help you." said Nightmare Moon. "Then we have an agreement?" asked Grievous "I believe that we do. Now since where on the same team, we can get to the next faze of my magnificent plan! said Discord. "And what will *Cough* that be?" asked Grievous. "Were going to take a trip to the Crystal Empire!" exclaimed Discord. End of Chapter 4: Friendships With General Grievous
