Nightmare and the Moon

                              "You cannot escape from Nightmare Moon!" threatened the monster. They sprinted as fast as they could, but it wasn't fast enough. Luna began to trail behind Celestia out of exhaustion and as a result, slipped. She was soon pulled off the ground by what seemed like the same dark mist that'd attacked the city. Nightmare Moon had kidnapped her hostage.

                              The forest was cold and isolated. Such a festive warm night had turned into discouraging, fearful darkness. Even the moon and stars looked to have lost their shine, all felt lost.

                               Commander Hurricane and Smart Cookie ran towards them. As soon as Celestia was in sight, Smart Cookie touched her Element, sending out a signal. Almost immediately the others reached the exact spot.

"Are you hurt, princess?" Platinum questioned frantically. Celestia tried her best so say something but once she opened her mouth all that was heard was a loud sob.

"No, need for tears princess" assured Clover "We'll rescue Princess Luna, and save the kingdom!".

No matter what the situation. The Elements of Harmony always remained level headed. Maybe this was why Celestia, and possibly the whole kingdom, felt confident and at ease when they were around.

"But how will you know where they are!?" she managed to sniff.

"We can pick up her signal in many ways" explained Private Pansy. Her soothing quiet, calm voice was like that of tingling chime-bells. A great thing to have during urgent situations, for only her voice alone gave Celestia more confidence. As Pansy went on with her explaining. Clover reached into her bag.

"Here, it will help you, for you must travel with us now". It was a gem similar to the others except it was cut into a shape of the heart, similar to the one at the crystal empire but pink. "It is the Element of the Heart, you might need it." she smiled.

"But I haven't even had any training yet," Celestia argued. "I don't know the first thing about how to use an Element, or Nightmare Mo-"

"But you know more than we do about Princess Luna" Interrupted Captain Hurricane. "If you don't want to go..." whispered Private Pansy " You don't have to, we understand".

                                             Celestia thought for a moment, gathered courage. She was given the Element of the Heart so she must follow her own. "I'll come with you" she answered. "I'm ready!".
