Crystal Nightmaresby MStar709ChaptersCh.2-ShadowsCh.3- Drakes and MagiciansCh.4-The Heart BrothersCh.1- The DreamscapeCh.2-Shadows"Well then....This is it" Luna looked towards a large set of doors hoping that this one would lead her toward the creature from before. " hopefully this wont be another trap door I already went through three of them. *shudder*" she still remembers the first trap door. "never going to be able to look at twilight and her friends the same way." Luna taking a deep breath, pushed the doors open. Suddenly, the doors slammed behind her, she yelped and flew into the dark air. She started looking around get a scene of her surroundings, but there wasn’t a source of light anywhere. She started panicking, thinking that she got the wrong door again, what's going to be in this door, a monster?, Nightmare moon?, the same thing from the first door! Luna started looking everywhere for something that she could see. Anything. Luna's ears twitched. She immediately stopped and landed on the floor, she started to look for the source of the noise, she could swear that she was hearing music. A bright light that shined above interrupted Luna temporally blinding her , before she could ask who was there, a voice all too familiar to her started to sing. "Well, Well, Well, " it was the same creature from before the one who stared this mess. "Princess Luna the dreamscape ruler, finally made it, huh? oh, I've been waiting! So how do like the 'Nightmarescape' HAHAHAHA " Luna got up and stared confidently at the creature in front of her. " It's over!, It's over! this time you've gone to far! It's over, I'm serious! Just who do you think you are? " " Just because you plague the dreamscape with nightmares doesn't make you it's king! You'd better give up, surrender now! I'm fixin' everything! " The creature started laughing, obviously not taking her seriously. " That's what you think, hah! But you couldn't be more wrong! And this will be the last time You hear my shadow song! Ohh!!!" Three skeletons burst from the ground and started singing with the creature "Ohh!!!!" "Oh Ohhh!!!!" "Ohh!!!!" "Whoa! Ohhh!!!! I'm the shadow of insanity " The creature sent the three skeletons to attack Luna. Luna started sing with the creature again, after blasting the three skeletons that were attacking her. " I see you're pretty proud of All your booby trapping schemes! But I can say you'll rule the dreamscape Only in your dreams! " The creature could only laughed at Luna's terrible pun. " Ha!, that's funny Luna, This was a dream! But now it's coming true! 'Cause even my mere shadow knows Your days as the ruler are through! Whoa oh" Luna tried to one up the creature again, while charging her spell. " Whoa oh! " Both Luna and the creature started to sing together while throwing magic at each other, in hopes of beating the other " Whoa oh! whoa oh ! whoa oh!'' Luna backed away from the creature and started to concentrate her magic to create a powerful blast to defeat the creature "whoa oh! I'm the princess of the night !" Luna released the blast trying to make it strike the creature, but to have him dodge the blast laugh. " Nice try Luna, maybe next time" The creature stretched his wings and started to fly away" HAHAHAHAHA!!! remember this day well lulu, the day were you lost the dreamscape to.... Dimmetry Heart the shadow of Fear!, and Insanity! HAHAHAAHA." "A shadow?" Luna only stared in confusion at the spot were the creature had been. "*Gasp*" suddenly Luna's eyes widen " it can't be....... a shadow.... just like .... Nightmare Moon" She started to feel a sense of dread wash over her, to know that there was a creature who claimed to be just like nightmare moon, if not then stronger. " I have to warn Tia!' Luna ran to leave the dreamscape to warn her sister. Ch.3- Drakes and Magicians"Dear Twilight, As you are aware nightmares have been plaguing Equestria. For weeks we haven't been able to trace the source of the nightmares as it keeps moving, never staying in one place for too long. But lucky for us princess luna has been able to trace the nightmares to its source, twilight I must ask you that if you see anyone suspicious stall them, do whatever you can to stall them make sure they stay long enough so luna will be able to bring them in for questioning. In the meantime I want you to research anything you have on 'Shadows' and report back to me as soon as you find something. Sincerely, Princess Celestia " "SPIKE!!!" A purple dragon came to the living room where twilight was reading the letter. "What is it twilight? What did the letter say?" The lavender unicorn turned toward spike. "Spike I need you to bring me any books you can find on 'Shadows' after that I want you gather the rest of the girls here." Before Spike could respond, the front doors slammed open and two ponies walked in, one was a cyan blue pegasus with rainbow colored hair, the other one was a pink earth pony whose puffy hair that seemed to defy gravity. Rainbow flew straight to twilight only stopping inches from her face. "Hey Twilight !, did you hear there's going to be a show in one hour, apparently their going to have a live tamed dragon participate in the show!" Spike perked up at the mention of a dragon " A dragon huh?, maybe this is my chance to learn more about dragons!" Spike turned towards twilight with a massive grin on his face. "Twilight can we go, can we? please!!!!" Spike tried his best to give Twilight the puppy dog eyes he learned from sweetie belle whenever she wanted something. Twilight look uncertainly into spike's pleading eyes, "But Princess Celestia is count-." Twilight look backed only to see both rainbow dash and pinkie pie looking at her with pleading eyes, she sighed in defeat. "Fine lets go." Twilight and the rest of the group left the library excited about the show that's about to take place. ~One hour later, town hall~ Twilight and the others arrived at town hall, and surprised to see over half of ponyville gathered in front of the stage. "Whoa almost all of ponyville is here!" Twilight look over at pinkie "Yeah this show sure as attracted a lot of ponies-" a purple claw claimed twilights mouth shut "SHHH!!! its starting" Two hooded figures appeared on the stage " Welcome one and all and please give a warm welcome to-" the shorter figure and the taller figure grabbed their cloaks and discarded them to reveal Trixie and a pale pink colored dragon with piercing yellow eyes and thin black colored pupils, his mouth had a overgrown fang sticking out that made him seem slightly intimidating, his body was a serpent shape and a bit well tone, his wings were twice his size, both of his arms had a black gauntlet with golden highlights each had a symbol of a Golden Star with a black heart in the center, in his chest seemed to be a large purple gem lodge in his stomach, he also seemed to not have any legs making others think that he was just a oversized snake until they saw his arms and wings, he seemed to no taller than luna. "The Great and Powerful Dragon Tamer Trixie and her great and loyal assistant Kaizer Star!" Fireworks went of making their appearance seem more grand. But the audience had the mixed expressions of anger and annoyed. Rainbow dash flew above the crowd and straight into Trixie "And what are you doing here! Didn't we kicked you out when you brought that ursa major here!" Trixie gritted her teeth in frustration " I'm here for one reason and one reason only to challenge twilight sparkle in magic duel in my show so all can see that I am the greatest unicorn ever!" Trixie struck a pose." I mean after all how many unicorns can say they defeated a dragon in combat and have that same dragon become her loyal assistant" The crowd looked at Trixie astonished with disbelieve in their eyes. Suddenly Applejack shouted from the crowd " Well, what makes you think that you can beat twilight at a magic duel!" Trixie looked down at the crowd "Well I think that's its quite simple" " I must admit your parlor tricks are amusing I bet you got a bunny under your hat now here your chance to get the best of me hope your hoof is hot come on, foals, lets see what you got! You try to wow me with your fashion taste but you find that I leave haute couture disgraced I'll set the record straight I'm powerful and great you're only second rate you think your rainbows wow but you only crash now! you think your rope tricks stun but their just overdone so for education, I reiterate! You're only second rate! Grown Drakes summit to my greatness my horn can cast illusions none can beat but if your not convince that im unbeatable put me to the test! I'd love to put these pretenses to rest! Go ahead and try to cut me down to size, tie me up and drop form a dizzy height you think you sealed my fate but you just to late! you're only second rate! you know your little parties aren't that fun, and your little spells aren't up to date let me ponticate on your sorry state You're only second rate! Zaba~caba~dabra! my drake's going grab ya! Alkazam~da~mas! and this thing is bigger the rest of ya! So spare me your insipid stare! You just cant hope to have better magic than I can and I can hardly wait to bring up to date! I'll send you packing straight to canterlot! you'll make a better living with a spinning plate! Youre only second raaaaate! " As soon as Trixie stop singing everypony looked at twilight as if they were waiting for something. Twilight looked around until she found out they were waiting on her." why are you all staring at me?" Ch.4-The Heart BrothersPrincess Luna was not in a good mood, no scratch that, she was fuming! She was just going to go to the dreamscape to destroy the nightmares, not fight for the control of the dreamscape with some patched-up thing that clams to be a shadow. 'Next time I see that freak, I'm going to make it wish it was never born!'. Luna stormed into her room, telling the guards to not let anyone enter unless it is time to lower the moon. " I will find out were you are hiding Dimmetry". Luna was concentrating on a spell to send her into the dreamscape, but something was blocking her.'No doubt that stupid creature, although got to admit it was a good try'. Luna released the spell and found her self on the maze the creature created the first time. "*groan* of course he would still be in the maze" Two hours have passed since Luna entered the maze and still no way out. "ARGH, HOW BIG IS THIS BUCKING MAZE ANYWAY!!! ARGH" Luna was about to go to another rant until she started hearing laughter, but the voice of the laughter didn't sound like Dimmetry's, it sounded maniacal and almost childish, it unnerved her. "Well, Well, Well, so you are the princess Luna my brother was talking about. well I have to admit you are every bit as beautiful as my brother claimed you to be" Luna looked up to see what appeared a blue unicorn stallion sitting on a blue cloud, only his horn was curved and had a bit of red on his horn, he was just around the same height as Luna, his mane was black and messy it looked like he haven't brushed it in days, he had two fangs sticking out of his mouth, his eyes were two different colors one was red and the other was purple, he was a bit good looking. " Hey! are you going to keep staring at me? or what? I mean I am handsome but I think you all ready know that, right beautiful." Luna blushed and looked away from the stallion muttering something that sounded like 'stupid sexy mysterious stallion.' The mystery stallion was now on a full blown laughter it sounded exactly the same as the laughter she had heard before. " awe man my brother was right you are a riot!! AHAHAHAHAH". Luna had enough of this clown laughing at her. "I AM PRINCESS LUNA AND I AM GOING TO BE TREATED WITH RESPECT YOU CLOWN!!". she roared at him with the royal canterlot voice. The stallion stared at her wide eyed, then adopted a sly grin." oh?, well you know I am a prince and since your a princess so do you want to, you know 'unite our kingdoms'" Luna looked at the stallion in confusion until she finally understood what he had meant. Luna blushed furiously and started to studder "WHA-WHAT! YES-NO! I MEAN NO! NO! NO! NO!" Luna looked for a way to get out of the situation. "AHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!". The stallion laughed clung on to sides. " AHAHAHAHA St-Stop AAHAHAHA just stop it hurts AHAHAHA" "just who are you anyway, and if you really are a prince then what are you the prince of" Luna was red from both embarrassment and anger. "hm? oh! well my name is Oni Heart, Prince of the long lost tribe of ponies called the Shadowponies!!! Although there are only like three of us left me, my dad, and my brother Dimmetry." Oni was staring at Luna with amusement as he watch her look at him in shock. Oni closed his eyes and counted "One Two Three I was striking suave, ambitious, hoof to horn so Oni-licious Now I'm vile, I am villainous, and vicious, oh, and malicious I had it all, a kingdom, subjects too I was loved, and I was kind Then the crystal ponies invaded and took everything I loved That's why I am so evil Why I do what I do " From the ground four skeletons burst from the ground and sang backup. "He was a prince" "So young and vital" "He’s nasty" "A Shadow pony prince" "He's a suspicious pony" " Who said that about me?" "A very vicious pony" "I'll have you skinned I'm a necromancer With a army of the undead You think you're better than me? I've never heard of ya I'm evil I've spend 5000 thousand years in tartarus planning the perfect revenge Causing endless Nightmares "He's a nasty pony" "I'm invincible" "He's ghastly" "I'm unminceable I'm unwashable Unrinseable Like an abandoned school I have no principle All of you unicorns All earth ponies, and pegasi I'll tell you what I'm going to do I'm going to make them". All the skeletons started to sing a high pitched note. Oni snapped at his dead minions."Shut up now. Shut up! It's just me I will make them suffer" Oni put his hoof under Luna's chin forcing her to make eye contact and making her blush as well "... too... Sweet Nightmares AHAHAHAHA" Oni teleported away from Luna leaving her alone and a bit confused. "....ARGH!!! I let him get away and apparently not only he works with dimmetry, but he is his brother ARGH!!!, *sigh* why is it the cute ones are either gay or evil" Luna teleported out of the dreamscape going back to canterlot. ~Meanwhile in the Canterlot Statue garden~ In the statue gardens in canterlot a certain draconequus statue was glowing. "No...NO!, ARGH!!! THEY HAVE RETURNED!!! But that's not possible we banish them into tartarus, it was supposed to be permanent!!! We used the Elements!!! How!? It doesn't make any sense!!! ARGH!!! Celestia, Luna, anypony get me out of here PLEASE!!!, you don't know who your dealing with here!, I know how to stop them PLEASE!!! They cant be allowed to be free!!!!! ARGH!!!." Ch.1- The DreamscapeThe moonlight shone over the rather small town known as ponyville and once the last light was turned off, it signified to the two cloaked figures that it was time to get moving "Do you have the flyers?, my faithful assistant". The other hooded figure nodded and pulled out a stack of flyers "Good, now just placed them around the walls". "......" Without uttering a single word the taller figure's empty claw was enveloped in a emerald green aura and one by one, the flyers left his other claw and placed themselves around the nearby walls " It's done." Slightly laughing, the shorter figure approached one of the posters that were on a window of a shop " heh, " she pulled down her hood to reveal herself to be none other than a familiar cyan-blue mare, with a silver mane. " In due time this town will forever remember the name of-"she began to raising her voice " The great and powerful-" The lights from the store lit up "Huh? Who's there?" "oh whoops!" she pulled back up her hood and ran to her assistant "It's time we take our leave" Almost immediately, they both teleported away. "Who's making that noise?'' A tired stallion walked outside " Whoever it is, you better- huh?" The stallion noticed the poster and began reading it. "Today, this afternoon at 3 pm, be prepared for a familiar face will make its triumphed return that will reveal who really is the greatest unicorn in all time! Gather around and be amazed by the, The Great and Powerful Dragon Tamer!!!" ~Meanwhile in Canterlot~ Princess Luna was getting ready to enter the dreamscape, when she saw her sister getting ready for bed " Hello dear sister going to go asleep after a long day of work" The other pony was a white alicorn with a rainbow flowing mane that flowed in the none existent breeze, responded. "Good night to you Luna, getting ready for your night court?" The white alicorn ask. "Not today Tia we are just going to patrol the dreamscape today see if anypony is in need of help from there nightmares,(besides its not like anypony go to night court anyways)." Luna's eyes narrowed. "We have been sensing a unusual amount of nightmare energy all around equestria but today it seem to have settled in ponyville, so we shall use this opportunity to investigate." Celestia nodded and held a stern expression "Well then, I wish you the best of luck during your investigation " Celestia's eyes soften a bit. "But please be careful little sister I have been getting reports from all over equestria that the nightmares our subjects are experiencing are so terrifying to the point were the ponies couldn't work anymore without being so paranoid " Celestia wrapped a wing around her bringing her to a warm embrace. " We shall sister, We shall see thou tomorrow" Luna walked to her quarters to go see the dreamscape, little did she know that somepony or rather someone was watching her. "Hehehehehe" A deep disorientated voice echoed through the dreamscape watching Luna and Celestia through a crystal ball "So the spirit of the moon, night, and the dreamscape has come to play huh? Hehehehe well I guess it's time to show her that the dreamscape belongs to me now AHAHAHAHAHA!" Luna arrived to her bedroom and ordered the guards to make sure no one bothered her. "Now time to find out what's going on the dreamscape" The lunar princess concentrated her magic into tracking down the source of the disturbance. "Gothca." Luna smirked and released her magic, and suddenly appeared in a individual's dream were the nightmare energy seem to originated from, "*Gasp*". Everywhere Luna saw there were corpses of dead ponies, griffons, minotaur, and a few what appeared to be a couple of hairless apes? But what really frighten Luna the most was the strange bipedal black creature whose body seem to be hold together by stiches, and it's body seem to be made out of shadows, the creature had a blue curved unicorn horn (similar to king sombra's) on his head, and a pair of blue pegasus wings stitch on to his back, but strangely he was not a alicorn or even a pony, his body resembled a diamond dog only taller, and his arms and legs were thinner ,his claws were larger than that of diamond dog, he had eyes similar of a changeling as well. The strange creature was laughing and standing behind what appeared to be a dragon mix with a snake. "AHAHAHAHA do you see it now! Do you!? The pain!-" before the creature could finish his rant he spotted Luna and gave her a devilish grin "Oh? well sorry to cut our meeting short old friend, but I'll be sure to visit soon, but it seems I have company." The dream faded along with the dragon, and a set of doors appeared, Luna knowing she didn't have a choice went through the door only to have slammed shut behind her. Luna yelped and started looking around to look at her surroundings, but there wasn't a source of light anywhere. "Hehehehe you have no idea how long I've waited for you to find me dear lulu, hahaha" The creature flew to a far enough distance, so Luna wouldn't be able to see him, " But first a test." The creature snapped his fingers and a maze burst from the ground. "If you can beat the maze and find me before this soul wakes up then we can talk...HAHAHA, good luck 'princess.'" the creature hiss out the princess part as if it were poison and, at the snap of his fingers he disappeared laughing. Luna smirked already thinking she has won the game. " A test? Well then, we shall partake in this game foul demon, and when we defeat you we'll do more than just 'talk."
Ch.2-Shadows"Well then....This is it" Luna looked towards a large set of doors hoping that this one would lead her toward the creature from before. " hopefully this wont be another trap door I already went through three of them. *shudder*" she still remembers the first trap door. "never going to be able to look at twilight and her friends the same way." Luna taking a deep breath, pushed the doors open. Suddenly, the doors slammed behind her, she yelped and flew into the dark air. She started looking around get a scene of her surroundings, but there wasn’t a source of light anywhere. She started panicking, thinking that she got the wrong door again, what's going to be in this door, a monster?, Nightmare moon?, the same thing from the first door! Luna started looking everywhere for something that she could see. Anything. Luna's ears twitched. She immediately stopped and landed on the floor, she started to look for the source of the noise, she could swear that she was hearing music. A bright light that shined above interrupted Luna temporally blinding her , before she could ask who was there, a voice all too familiar to her started to sing. "Well, Well, Well, " it was the same creature from before the one who stared this mess. "Princess Luna the dreamscape ruler, finally made it, huh? oh, I've been waiting! So how do like the 'Nightmarescape' HAHAHAHA " Luna got up and stared confidently at the creature in front of her. " It's over!, It's over! this time you've gone to far! It's over, I'm serious! Just who do you think you are? " " Just because you plague the dreamscape with nightmares doesn't make you it's king! You'd better give up, surrender now! I'm fixin' everything! " The creature started laughing, obviously not taking her seriously. " That's what you think, hah! But you couldn't be more wrong! And this will be the last time You hear my shadow song! Ohh!!!" Three skeletons burst from the ground and started singing with the creature "Ohh!!!!" "Oh Ohhh!!!!" "Ohh!!!!" "Whoa! Ohhh!!!! I'm the shadow of insanity " The creature sent the three skeletons to attack Luna. Luna started sing with the creature again, after blasting the three skeletons that were attacking her. " I see you're pretty proud of All your booby trapping schemes! But I can say you'll rule the dreamscape Only in your dreams! " The creature could only laughed at Luna's terrible pun. " Ha!, that's funny Luna, This was a dream! But now it's coming true! 'Cause even my mere shadow knows Your days as the ruler are through! Whoa oh" Luna tried to one up the creature again, while charging her spell. " Whoa oh! " Both Luna and the creature started to sing together while throwing magic at each other, in hopes of beating the other " Whoa oh! whoa oh ! whoa oh!'' Luna backed away from the creature and started to concentrate her magic to create a powerful blast to defeat the creature "whoa oh! I'm the princess of the night !" Luna released the blast trying to make it strike the creature, but to have him dodge the blast laugh. " Nice try Luna, maybe next time" The creature stretched his wings and started to fly away" HAHAHAHAHA!!! remember this day well lulu, the day were you lost the dreamscape to.... Dimmetry Heart the shadow of Fear!, and Insanity! HAHAHAAHA." "A shadow?" Luna only stared in confusion at the spot were the creature had been. "*Gasp*" suddenly Luna's eyes widen " it can't be....... a shadow.... just like .... Nightmare Moon" She started to feel a sense of dread wash over her, to know that there was a creature who claimed to be just like nightmare moon, if not then stronger. " I have to warn Tia!' Luna ran to leave the dreamscape to warn her sister.

Ch.4-The Heart BrothersPrincess Luna was not in a good mood, no scratch that, she was fuming! She was just going to go to the dreamscape to destroy the nightmares, not fight for the control of the dreamscape with some patched-up thing that clams to be a shadow. 'Next time I see that freak, I'm going to make it wish it was never born!'. Luna stormed into her room, telling the guards to not let anyone enter unless it is time to lower the moon.

Luna blushed and looked away from the stallion muttering something that sounded like 'stupid sexy mysterious stallion.' The mystery stallion was now on a full blown laughter it sounded exactly the same as the laughter she had heard before. " awe man my brother was right you are a riot!! AHAHAHAHAH". Luna had enough of this clown laughing at her. "I AM PRINCESS LUNA AND I AM GOING TO BE TREATED WITH RESPECT YOU CLOWN!!". she roared at him with the royal canterlot voice.

" AHAHAHAHA St-Stop AAHAHAHA just stop it hurts AHAHAHA" "just who are you anyway, and if you really are a prince then what are you the prince of" Luna was red from both embarrassment and anger. "hm? oh! well my name is Oni Heart, Prince of the long lost tribe of ponies called the Shadowponies!!! Although there are only like three of us left me, my dad, and my brother Dimmetry." Oni was staring at Luna with amusement as he watch her look at him in shock. Oni closed his eyes and counted "One Two Three I was striking suave, ambitious, hoof to horn so Oni-licious Now I'm vile, I am villainous, and vicious, oh, and malicious I had it all, a kingdom, subjects too I was loved, and I was kind Then the crystal ponies invaded and took everything I loved That's why I am so evil Why I do what I do " From the ground four skeletons burst from the ground and sang backup. "He was a prince" "So young and vital" "He’s nasty" "A Shadow pony prince" "He's a suspicious pony" " Who said that about me?" "A very vicious pony" "I'll have you skinned I'm a necromancer With a army of the undead You think you're better than me? I've never heard of ya I'm evil I've spend 5000 thousand years in tartarus planning the perfect revenge Causing endless Nightmares "He's a nasty pony" "I'm invincible" "He's ghastly" "I'm unminceable I'm unwashable Unrinseable Like an abandoned school I have no principle All of you unicorns All earth ponies, and pegasi I'll tell you what I'm going to do I'm going to make them". All the skeletons started to sing a high pitched note. Oni snapped at his dead minions."Shut up now. Shut up! It's just me I will make them suffer" Oni put his hoof under Luna's chin forcing her to make eye contact and making her blush as well "... too... Sweet Nightmares AHAHAHAHA" Oni teleported away from Luna leaving her alone and a bit confused. "....ARGH!!! I let him get away and apparently not only he works with dimmetry, but he is his brother ARGH!!!, *sigh* why is it the cute ones are either gay or evil" Luna teleported out of the dreamscape going back to canterlot. ~Meanwhile in the Canterlot Statue garden~ In the statue gardens in canterlot a certain draconequus statue was glowing. "No...NO!, ARGH!!! THEY HAVE RETURNED!!! But that's not possible we banish them into tartarus, it was supposed to be permanent!!! We used the Elements!!! How!? It doesn't make any sense!!! ARGH!!! Celestia, Luna, anypony get me out of here PLEASE!!!, you don't know who your dealing with here!, I know how to stop them PLEASE!!! They cant be allowed to be free!!!!! ARGH!!!."
Ch.1- The DreamscapeThe moonlight shone over the rather small town known as ponyville and once the last light was turned off, it signified to the two cloaked figures that it was time to get moving "Do you have the flyers?, my faithful assistant". The other hooded figure nodded and pulled out a stack of flyers "Good, now just placed them around the walls". "......" Without uttering a single word the taller figure's empty claw was enveloped in a emerald green aura and one by one, the flyers left his other claw and placed themselves around the nearby walls " It's done." Slightly laughing, the shorter figure approached one of the posters that were on a window of a shop " heh, " she pulled down her hood to reveal herself to be none other than a familiar cyan-blue mare, with a silver mane. " In due time this town will forever remember the name of-"she began to raising her voice " The great and powerful-" The lights from the store lit up "Huh? Who's there?" "oh whoops!" she pulled back up her hood and ran to her assistant "It's time we take our leave" Almost immediately, they both teleported away. "Who's making that noise?'' A tired stallion walked outside " Whoever it is, you better- huh?" The stallion noticed the poster and began reading it. "Today, this afternoon at 3 pm, be prepared for a familiar face will make its triumphed return that will reveal who really is the greatest unicorn in all time! Gather around and be amazed by the, The Great and Powerful Dragon Tamer!!!" ~Meanwhile in Canterlot~ Princess Luna was getting ready to enter the dreamscape, when she saw her sister getting ready for bed " Hello dear sister going to go asleep after a long day of work" The other pony was a white alicorn with a rainbow flowing mane that flowed in the none existent breeze, responded. "Good night to you Luna, getting ready for your night court?" The white alicorn ask. "Not today Tia we are just going to patrol the dreamscape today see if anypony is in need of help from there nightmares,(besides its not like anypony go to night court anyways)." Luna's eyes narrowed. "We have been sensing a unusual amount of nightmare energy all around equestria but today it seem to have settled in ponyville, so we shall use this opportunity to investigate." Celestia nodded and held a stern expression "Well then, I wish you the best of luck during your investigation " Celestia's eyes soften a bit. "But please be careful little sister I have been getting reports from all over equestria that the nightmares our subjects are experiencing are so terrifying to the point were the ponies couldn't work anymore without being so paranoid " Celestia wrapped a wing around her bringing her to a warm embrace. " We shall sister, We shall see thou tomorrow" Luna walked to her quarters to go see the dreamscape, little did she know that somepony or rather someone was watching her. "Hehehehehe" A deep disorientated voice echoed through the dreamscape watching Luna and Celestia through a crystal ball "So the spirit of the moon, night, and the dreamscape has come to play huh? Hehehehe well I guess it's time to show her that the dreamscape belongs to me now AHAHAHAHAHA!" Luna arrived to her bedroom and ordered the guards to make sure no one bothered her. "Now time to find out what's going on the dreamscape" The lunar princess concentrated her magic into tracking down the source of the disturbance. "Gothca." Luna smirked and released her magic, and suddenly appeared in a individual's dream were the nightmare energy seem to originated from, "*Gasp*". Everywhere Luna saw there were corpses of dead ponies, griffons, minotaur, and a few what appeared to be a couple of hairless apes? But what really frighten Luna the most was the strange bipedal black creature whose body seem to be hold together by stiches, and it's body seem to be made out of shadows, the creature had a blue curved unicorn horn (similar to king sombra's) on his head, and a pair of blue pegasus wings stitch on to his back, but strangely he was not a alicorn or even a pony, his body resembled a diamond dog only taller, and his arms and legs were thinner ,his claws were larger than that of diamond dog, he had eyes similar of a changeling as well. The strange creature was laughing and standing behind what appeared to be a dragon mix with a snake. "AHAHAHAHA do you see it now! Do you!? The pain!-" before the creature could finish his rant he spotted Luna and gave her a devilish grin "Oh? well sorry to cut our meeting short old friend, but I'll be sure to visit soon, but it seems I have company." The dream faded along with the dragon, and a set of doors appeared, Luna knowing she didn't have a choice went through the door only to have slammed shut behind her. Luna yelped and started looking around to look at her surroundings, but there wasn't a source of light anywhere. "Hehehehe you have no idea how long I've waited for you to find me dear lulu, hahaha" The creature flew to a far enough distance, so Luna wouldn't be able to see him, " But first a test." The creature snapped his fingers and a maze burst from the ground. "If you can beat the maze and find me before this soul wakes up then we can talk...HAHAHA, good luck 'princess.'" the creature hiss out the princess part as if it were poison and, at the snap of his fingers he disappeared laughing. Luna smirked already thinking she has won the game. " A test? Well then, we shall partake in this game foul demon, and when we defeat you we'll do more than just 'talk."
