So, after my psychotic episode had toned down I realised that I forgot something important. I fly back to the cursed empire and on the snowy trail I found what I had forgotten, I landed at the spot as gracefully as possible by falling face first into it, I need to practice my flight more. Fuck it, I have unlimited motherfucking magic.

I crouch and move away the bits of snow that are covering what I was looking for. Now you may be wondering what could be so important that I have to return to search for it in the middle of the arctic.

Oh you know, treasure, very special treasure. What kind of treasure? Only one of the most valuable kind of treasure that has ever existed, remains.

Now you’ll ask to stop beating around the motherfucking bush and tell you already, well I shall do so right now. What remains are more valuable than the remains of King Sombra himself? Yes, while it is true that a cardboard cutout is more three-dimensional than him, I still have some plans for him.

I pick up his horn in a magic aura and rise it up, dark magic flows into it and it’s starting to take shape. The magic is near to revive him, but first I make some tweaks before it is completed. He’s gonna get a big motherfucking surprise.

I hear the crackle while his emerald eyes are formed, to which I change them to white with red irises and removing the shadow smoke on the eyes. His jet black mane flowing along with the darkness and his armor appearing too worn on his body.

“Yes, I have finally re-” He stopped as he landed and finally noticed one my little tweaks, the change on voice “What is this?!?”

I bursted into laugh as the realization finally has hit him, or should I say her? I might as well call her Umbra, there is nothing that she can be queen of and in my eyes this is a well deserved punishment.

“What did you do?!” Umbra yelled at me grabbing me by my robe collar “What have you done you fool?! I should kill you for this insolence!”

I managed to shut her up with a punch to the stomach strong enough to make her cough blood and fall on her knees, this is to be expected of her if the princess’ memories are anything to go by.

“Oh please, you wouldn’t be able to motherfucking kill me even if I was asleep.” I answered her as I shake said hand that I punched with.

“Wh-why you…” Umbra growled as she tried to cast magic, but nothing happened. It was adorable when she tried harder to call forth magic, even more when the exhaustion caught up to her and fell to the snowy ground “My… magic…”

“See, that’s one of the reasons why to not fuck with me,” I pull her by her mane and force her gaze to the dark clouds over the destroyed empire, she tried to struggle of course, but it didn’t last long “This is another one, does this place ring any bells?”

“Wait, isn’t that..” Umbra gasped as she just now started to shiver.

“Motherfucking right, what you see before you is all that’s left of the motherfucking Crystal Empire.” I finish with a laugh, but I am careful to not get carried away this time.

“You lie, a measly mage like you couldn’t have caused all of that.”

“Then look into my eyes motherfucker!” I yank her to meet my eye level, I also share my recent memories of the empire. Her lip quivered and bit it while trying to suppress her anger. Can’t blame Umbra, I did blew up an entire kingdom with lots of potential slaves and mines. But I don’t feel like being a tyrant like her… yet.

“How much of a fool are you?!”

“My patience is wearing thin Umbra, I don’t need you yet, so begone!” I zap her with a thunder spell that rendered her unconscious and with a snap of my fingers she disappears to my, let’s say, pocket dimension.

Resuming back to my plans, I’m in a mystical land with mythical creatures where the sun and moon are raised and lowered by two ponies where they send out six girls in their twenties to battle demons and shit.

Wait, I know of one. I surround myself with my dark aura and take off to the skies again. I am intended on going to Ponyville, but I have all the time in the world to arrive there, surely a few stops on the way wouldn’t hurt. I have all the time in the world after all.

“I came as soon as I could sister,” Luna entered her sister’s chambers quickly joining her by the balcony. Both dressed in royal gowns that matched the color of their coats and jewelry “What has happened?”

“It’s Cadence, can you feel her presence?” Celestia asked as she kept looking worriedly at the recently formed dark clouds above the Crystal Empire. Luna closed her eyes and tried to establish a mental link with Cadence, but nothing happened.

“No… I can’t… she couldn’t be…”

“I’m afraid it is Luna.” Celestia wrapped her in a hug and shed tears for their lost niece.

“Wait, I sense something!” Luna gasped as she broke away from the hug and focused on the lone survivor, it was difficult thanks to the curse laid on the land, but as soon as the link was fully established she knew well who it was the survivor which made her blood run cold.

“Ugh...brrr!” Luna heard a deep feminine voice who seemed to be out of breath and shivering, but kept on walking despite the fatigue.

“Tia, try to communicate too, you won’t believe this.”

Celestia nodded and did as her sister asked. As soon as she was in she could feel the familiar dark terrifying essence that neither of them could forget.

“Sombra, you’ve revived!” Celestia gasped as well and her hands started to shake slightly.

“What?!” Sombra responded while he started to panic “Who are you? Where are you? Where am I?!” She got more desperate and confused by each question she asked.

The princesses dropped their jaw in shock after what they heard. It seems that Sombra has lost his memory, or what is left of Sombra. Not only he was back on the land of the living, but his memory had been erased. Not only that, but the voice change suggested that something else was done

“Hello?” Sombra’s voice reached their minds again after a few seconds of silence “If there’s anyone out there, please help. The only thing I can make out from this forest and grass are some train tracks,” Soon the voice broke into tears and started to sob “Please, I’m all alone, cold and it’s dark here. I don’t have anything to cover myself with, help me…I beg of you…”

“Do not despair,” Celestia responded “A team of guards will shortly be deployed to look for you, do not move from your location.”

“Thank you,” Sombra sniffed as the tears calmed down “Thank you very much.”

The connection broke as Luna entered back into the quarters and rubbed her templates. She didn’t liked none of this and it was too suspicious, yet Sombra didn’t seemed to be lying at all, both could tell.

“Luna,” Celestia approached Luna while her back was still turned at her “I know this is crazy, but it’s the closest we got to a clue to what we are up against, I didn’t had any choice.”

“I know that,” Luna turned back at her and lowered her head in uncertainty “I don’t like it, but I understand that this has to be done.”

“I feel the same,” Celestia turned her gaze back at the dark clouds way on the distance “Dark times are upon us again, we can’t afford to take risks this time.”

“Sombra aside, what do we do now?”

“Call Discord,” Celestia sat down on taking a parchment and a quill to write the message “We have no other choice but to send him to investigate.”

So you might be wondering why am I doing all of this, causing destruction and such. Well, if you had unlimited power like this you would make the best out of it too. Also the villains of this world sucks all kinds of ass, so I want to give them a real challenge in which I can take enjoyment out of it.

It’s not that I’m a bad person, it’s just that I bottle up many bad thoughts and fantasies that which I can make them true with this unique opportunity. Like many people I live a stressful life, even my hobbies weren’t helping me deal with life since my family drives me nuts, except my sister even though she scares me at times, I’d rather not talk about it.

Of course I plan to return home soon, I’m not gonna stay in this land as wonderfully magical as it is. I have a few loose ends to tie up back there, lots of people sure know what I mean.

But I digress. Continuing flying over the landscape I noticed something that catched my eye, kinda looks like a farm but it’s so motherfucking boring and color lacking. I could see a light blue shape down there near a pile of rocks, I have no idea what could she be motherfucking doing, but that what I will be finding out now.

It would be boring to do this quest of villainy all alone, either it would be to just go right now and reveal myself as the mastermind behind the destruction of the empire and blow up everything after a little fight. So I need a lackey of sorts and I think I found said lackey. Landing on the farm I noticed that it was an unicorn mare in overalls who was picking at the pile of rocks, for what reasons I do not wish to know.

“Greetings madam,” I greeted her successfully getting her attention.

“I would rather not be bothered right now,” She said as she got up and turned to glare at me “Begone, I am busy.”

“Noted,” I nodded giving a slight smile “But I just came here for a quick talk, I’m sure you can afford a small break.”

“Look buddy, I am in no mood to talk to a stalker or anything. So get lost!” She snapped as me with a sneer before she turned back to work.

“Why is a unicorn of a level such as yours working in a motherfucking boring ass farm like this?” I walked over to the pile and sat on an unused rock.

“That is none of your business, now get lost.” She picked up the pickaxe and continue to pick the rocks.

“You have more power that you think you have, you know.”

That caught her attention. She stopped picking and eyed at me suspiciously, but to be fair it’s very fucking obvious that I was with the getup I have.

“What are you stupid? I’m just a pathetic unicorn whose magic is just as pathetic.”

“That’s what you think, but your full magic extent can be woken with a little trick,” In a second I surprised her by teleporting myself in front of her with my index finger on her horn “Like this,” I lightly pressed her horn as her eyes go white and gets surrounded by a strong light purple aura. Her magic gone berserk shot blasts at random that turned some rocks into candy.

I pressed into her horn again and she had gone back to normal, she collapsed on her knees out of breath. I, like a complete motherfucking gentleman of course, helped on her feet and rested her against the rocks that remained untouched.

“What did you do?” The mare asked me after she had somewhat recovered.

“I unlocked your hidden potential, I told you that you had more power than you thought.”

“My what?”

“Hidden potential,” I took a seat next to her, though she scooted away from me immediately “You see… erm…”

“Trixie.”

“Yes, Trixie.” Okay, so far so good “Some unicorns can’t exactly use their magic to their full potential like in days of old, like when they used to raise the sun and lower the moon before the princesses came. A big part of their magic gets locked away at a young age, like in your case. The most common cases to unlocking a unicorn’s true potential generally is experience some unfortunate tragic event, a massive magical interference of any kind or with a very complicated spell that requires a ton of motherfucking magic.”

“Then why unlock mine?” Trixie seemed to be getting a bit inpatient, might as well to make it quick as I said I would.

“You saw how big your real magic power is, why let that go to waste? Besides, there was one filly that had her potential unlocked long ago. A little ‘prodigy’ from Canterlot so the ponies say.”

Trixie quickly stared at the ground with a sneer, something I said definitely had triggered her off, good.

“I do not know who that is,” I stood up and started walking away calmly “But with your magic now this strong, you might be able to beat her now.”

I continued walking until I have hidden myself in a treeline that was at a fair distance of the farm. I could see the bits of indigo shed a little light to where I was, I didn’t need to turn around to know that she had left. With that boost she can give quite some to the elements, even the princesses if she is smart and fast enough.

I chuckle as I take flight again, there aren’t many stops on the way though, I needed to balance time just right so it doesn’t drag out too long, too short and that it will be enough to remember a real villain that doesn’t put the dark forced to shame.

And now that I have my scapegoat in place to spice things up, I can continue on flying without much of a care.
