King Sombra looked over Baltimare. He knew why he was here, and what he was going to get. He turned back to his darklings and cleared his throat
"TODAY! WE WILL DEFEAT BALTIMARE! THERE SHALL BE NO SURVIVORS!" He yelled as the darklings gathered their weapons and got ready for the attack on the city.
A guard who was patrolling around the outside of the city saw the darklings and King Sombra on the hilltop. His pupils went small and he ran for his life.
"KING SOMBRA IS HERE!!!!" He yelled as he ran past ponies and guards. Ponies screamed and ran for their lives, as sirens went off all around the city. Sombra laughed darkly and he and the darklings charged straight into the city. The guard ran into the mayor's office.
"MAYOR! KING SOMBRA IS ATTACKING THE CITY!" He yelled. The mayor spun around and nodded. "Try to get as many civilians out of the city as fast as you can." he said. The guard nodded and went over to a couple of others and told them what to do. He and the other guards began to help civilians out of the city and out of the blood bath that was going to ensure.
A guard swung at a darkling chopping off its head. He swung at another but the darkling dodged it with its spear. He threw it at the guard and went right through his armor and out his back. The guard yelled in pain and collapsed as the darkling smashed his head in. Sombra walked past guard and darklings alike battling it out in the streets. He remembered back to when he had first came here when he was King.
Many years earlier
"King Sombra." A guard said dipping his head.
"Sapphire. What plans do we have here in Equestria?" he asked the guard walking into a huge building.
"Princess Luna and Celestia have called us for a meeting for peace between us." He explained opening a door and following the King down another hallway.
Sombra nodded. "And if we become, allies, no one would mess with us, as we have pretty good and well made armies." He said walking into the room and going over to Luna and Celestia. "You called us here for a peace treaty?" He asked. Princess Celestia nodded.
"Me and my sister, think it would be best if we joined together." She said "And that we both are good trading partners already."
Sombra nodded. "I agree to the terms." He said "But, I must ask, how well is your military?"
The sisters looked at each other. "Not very well." Luna said "At the moment all we have is the royal guards."
Sombra's eyes were wide with surprise. "A country with no military, should not even be a country at all." He said "And any pony who does not want to join should be slaughtered."
Celestia looked at Sombra. "And why would you say that we have no good ponies? All you cared about was power and power alone." She stated.
Sombra froze to the ground. He looked at them both starting to get angry. "Just power?" He asked a evil laugh starting to form "JUST POWER?!" Sombra was laughing evilly now "Fine, but if we go to war in the next few years, you and all of Equestria , shall die!" He said and stormed out of the room and down the hallyway. Sapphire raced after his King.
"Sombra, do you think that was the best idea, to question them like that?" He asked. Sombra turned on him angry.
"DO NOT QUESTION ME!!!" He yelled and stabbed his horn through Sapphire's chest. Sapphire cried out in agony and pain, as he hit the floor blood starting to form. Sombra pulled back and looked around. He saw no one in the hallway. He grabbed his best guard and got him to the carriage.
"What happened?" A pony pulling the carriage asked.
"Sapphire was injured when Celestia and Luna got angry and stabbed him through the chest. I only responded, by stabbing Celestia back." He lied. The pony nodded and headed as fast as he could back to the Crystal Kingdom.
Present day
Sombra had lived with that lie for many, many years. He growled and stabbed a pony with his horn. The pony yelled in pain as Sombra did it repeatedly fighting all his anger. The pony fell dead, way before Sombra stopped. He looked around in the streets and saw lots of dead darklings and guards. He growled and took a few darklings with him towards the mayor's office.
Sombra busted down the door and the mayor surprised spun around. Two royal guards guarded the mayor. They both pulled out their swords and started to fight the darklings. The darklings used their spears and stabbed them and sung at them. The guards kept fighting until Sombra used his magic and ripped their heads off. He threw the bodies to the floor and confronted the mayor.
"Mayor." He growled "You have two choices: 1. To surrender and keep more ponies from dying, or continue to fight and face a cruel death."
The mayor spat at him "I'd rather die, than surrender to you!!!" he spat. Sombra laughed darkly and lifted the mayor into the air with his magic. The mayor filled with horror tried to get free. Sombra pulled out his sword, and cut off the mayor's legs. The mayor yelled with pain as blood poured from his legs. SOmbra then cut off his wings and tail, before finally stabbing a sword through his head. He pulled out the sword and entered back into the streets, knowing Baltimare was theirs. He laughed and headed back towards their base.
Sapphire was sitting in his medical bed filled with pain. He remebered when he and Sombra had visited Baltimare for the peace treaty, and how Sombra got angry and stabbed him through the chest and blamed it on Luna and Celestia. Sapphire, knew he would have to reveal the truth, from that awful day, to all his fellow guards, friends, and king and queen, but he didn't know when or how. He struggled to get out of the hospital bed, but pain went through his chest and he cried out in pain. He lay back down and sighed. He knew that Sombra, would stop at nothing to take control of all Equestria. He closed his eyes, knowing that probably no one could stop him. But it would two people, he least expected to do it in the end.
