Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Nightmare searched for her father around the castle."That stupid stallion,hiding from his own daughter?And HE is the king?Hah,such a stupid thing!" Nightmare then felt herself stop suddenly and sway slightly.Her power was draining from her.She quickly galloped to a window and saw that the moon was moving away from the sun letting light surround Equestria."No!I cannot lose my power now!!" Then hoofsteps were heard behind her.She froze then turned to face her father."Well my daughter,now that you are weak once again it is my pleasure to kill you." He walked  to her and raised his horn then stabbed Nightmare in the side deeply."AHHHHH!!" Nightmare screamed in pain as he pushed her into a wall stabbing deeper into her side."Now,your done!!"Sombra then gripped Nightmare's horn with his teeth and ripped it off forcely."A-A-HHHHH!!" Nightmare yelled and saw sombra with her horn in his mouth."Stupid mare,your so-AGH!!"Sombra fell to the side as bullets were being shot at him and Nightmare grabbed her cloak and put it on.Tears fell from her face as she noticed a team of ponies enter the castle and immediately go to Sombra. "Target Acquired!Time to end it!" yelled a stallion holding a combat knife in his hoof as he brought it to Sombra's neck and slit it letting blood drip to the floor.The squad of ponies cheered as the cyan stallion caught a glance of the mare."Hey,you!" Nightmare instantly got up and ran past the ponies."We got a galloper!" yelled a mare with yellow and orange hair.The cyan stallion pulled the mare yellow coat mare back."I got this,radio HQ and tell them the mission was a success!" With that,that stallion turned and followed the mare close behind."Hey,i will not hurt you!!" Nightmare never obeyed the order and kept running just like her brother said to."STOP!!" the stallion yelled as he saw the mare run into the Arctic Circle.Nightmare disappeared from his sight and kept running.She was beginning to breathe hard as the ice-cold air filled her lungs making her cough.She had to stop but she could not.Something was telling her not to stop,to keep going until she knew she was safe.Suddenly,she collapsed onto the snow coughing blood.The cold had gotten to her and now she couldn't push on.She lay there,cold and stiff in the Arctic..freezing.Suddenly,she moved her hoof and stood up once more."I-I promised my brother...t-to keep going." Nightmare shook but put it aside and started trotting through the ice cold snow.Some say it was about 2 or 4 feet of snow so she couldn't get far.She finally found a cave and trotted inside.Once inside she fell to her side and went under.She woke up later in the cave trying to remember what happened."T..That's right.They are all....dead." her voice broke as she struggled to say those words choking back tears.She was alone now,no pony to love,hold,or see.She was her own family."A-AH!!" her hind leg had been throbbing badly and she then remembered that Sombra had stabbed her through the leg."W...Why?Why father?" She looked outside as the blizzard roared on.She just hoped that...somepony would come and find her...just somepony.
