Cold. I was freezing. I woke and looked around, I was in a snowy field and a blizzard was coming through. Cold ice chips whipped my eyes as soon as I faced the wind, out of self defense, my horn lit and  my wings coved my face, my magic teleported me to a light I had viewed when looking to face the blizzard,  it turned out to be a large kingdom, next to me I saw a dark unicorn. I stood up, staring at him. He growled at me but I just straitened my posture, not flinching one bit. I relized I could not greet him properly as my name slipped my memory... I actually couldn't remember any thing... suddenly a thought hit me like a dagger, Who am I? I relized a angered thought popped in my head, was this the pony who teleported my and made me look like a fool?

"Who are you?" I demanded.

"Who are you to challenge the great King Sombra?" He growled in a loud voice. I felt authority in my veins, and I suddenly remembered my name and title,

"Who are you to challenge Twilight Sparkle the princess of dark magic?" I boomed with a sudden, ferocious anger. Sombra recoiled, before he stood with a authoritive posture.

"Yes, I remember you, the one who challenged Celestia after she threw your mother, Queen Luna, her sister, in the Canterlot dungeons, and then banished you." A smirk formed on his dark muzzle, and his eyebrow raised, "How about a deal? I help you take place of Celestia In the kingdom and become empress, and you give me rule of this kingdom and possibly more land. So what do you say, Sparkle?" I thought about his deal, and then all my memories suddenly came back, causing my blood to boil.

Flashback

A maniacal laugh reached my ears coming from the throne room down stairs, I quickly dropped the book I was reading about ruling a kingdom, and ran through the doors of my room. A urgency to see if my mother, Queen Luna, was alright. Aunty Tia was quite authoritive over my mother and I didn't want mother to get harmed. Reaching the throne room I stopped at the doors. Surprisingly, there were no gaurds that I saw in my gallop to the trone room. peeping through the doors I watched them. Aunty Tia was looming over mother and she began talking,

"AHAHAHA You, you think that I'll let the moon rise tonight! Oh no no no Luna dearie the moon will never rise again, It blocks out my beautiful sun, never again shall the moon rise! Never!!"

"B-But sister! The ponies need their sleep! The animals need to rest! What about the tides? The water won't stay organized! There will be tsunamis! Sister please, it's your duty!" Mother pleaded. I stood there, stiff with shock. Aunty wanted to keep the day on forever! I felt paralyzed, I couldn't move.

"You dare defy me?"  Celestia boomed, "Then I banish you to the deepest dungeons under Canterlot!" A door on the floor opened and Luna's legs and neck was encased in shackles, all connected by chains, and a magic sealer went over her horn, and binds over her wings. she was telepathicly lifted into the air and thrown like trash down the hole.

"NO!" I screeched flinging myself through the doors, but I was to late. The trapdoor closed and Mother's screams were sealed away. "MOTHER!" I turned on Aunty but her crazed look and twitching eye was already on me, her horn lit and blackness hit me like a crashing wave.

End Flashback

My wings snapped open and I growled menacingly. "Deal." I put out my hoof and we shook. Sombra began talking,

"See the crystal heart I'm the center of the field? It creates a powerful magic if you are to retrieve it you can harvest it's power and become more powerful than Celestia! Really all you have to do is get past the magical field, get through the-" I flapped my wings and flew towards the kingdom center, having come up with a plan while he was yambering on.  Making my self presentable when flying, I landed in front of the large castle, picked up the crystal and flew back to Sombra, easier than expected, I thought. Sombra gaped at me.

"Wha- what? But I spent years coming up with a plan! H-how could you just so easily fly in there like y-your-" Sombra stuttered on before I cut him off.

"I'm a princess," I tapped my crown, "And mail is always late coming here, and the king and queen are my brother and sister-in-law." I gave him a dull look that basically said 'so now what captain-obvious?'

"Um, ok then," he handed me a scroll, "Just use this spell and you'll be able to harvest the power." I scanned the scroll with my magic and immediately knew it and learned it. 'Power harvesting, By Starswirl the Bearded, Will harvest power from any pony or object and any more power collected to the pony/object will flow to the caster' hmm, seems simple enough. I thought before casting it. Immediately a large flow of pure, raw magic flowed into me causing me to lift into the air with my wings spread wide, eyes white and glowing, surrounded by a ragged sparky aurora with blue, purple and bright pink streams of magic flowing from the heart into my horn this lasted for about a minute before I dropped to the ground. A mixture of exhaustion and exhilaration flowing through my veins. A devilish grin sneaked it's way to my muzzle and I shouted a wordless cry of triumph. Grabbing Sombra's attention I spoke,

"Now let's take over this kingdom!" He grinned and I grabbed him in my magic and we flew towards the crystal castle in a matter of minutes before landing on the balcony and galloping to the center of the room. "Brother please, help us!" I yelled urgently at Shining armor and Cadence.

"Twily?  What are you doing? What are you doing with him?!" Shining asked franticly.

"Mother has been imprisoned, aunty snapped like we always knew!" I silently sent a message to Sombra telepathically. I'm going to convince him to help me and let me strengthen Cadence's magic, but in truth I'm going to cast the same spell, but limit it so I can alter the effects. "I need your help to revelation against Celestia and free mother! Sombra has joined our fight. I can increase Cadence's magic and we can free mother!" I pleaded, I had took a class on acting so my lie was completely hidden.

Shining reluctantly agreed. I walked over to Cadence and touched my horn to hers'.  She looked at me as my magic began to flow. But one she realized what the spell was I quickly silenced her with another spell. Silently I sent Sombra a telepathic message again, Distract Shining with some plans or something. I heard them begin talking about ideas to defeat Aunty. Sister Cadenza look at me with pure terror and I let a small smirk form on my muzzle. Restrain Shining Armor and put a magic sealer on his horn, I sent to Sombra. I heard a muffled thud right before I heard slight grunt come from Shining Armor behind me and my smirk grew as I heard a metal magic sealer slide onto Shining's horn.  I put on the spell on and her Cadence slightly groan in pain. I knew she wouldn't give me the pleasure of hearing her shriek. The spell was very painful for the victim, I might add.  Well, I thought, I'll make her shriek. I felt raw magic flow into my horn and I willed a whip into existence. I whipped cadence with it in my magic. She screamed into her mouth. Good, good. I'm pushing her over the edge.  picking up the whip in my magic, I whipped her cutie mark, one of the most sensitive parts of a pony's body.  She shrieked and I laughed. I looked past cadence's head and saw a diagonal shaped gash across her cutie mark. Finishing up the spell, I took several steps back. With out me to support her weight, cadenza fell to the ground and closed her eyes. I looked back to shining and saw sombra had done as I instructed and put a magic sealer on shining's horn and put him spread eagle across the floor with chains holding him down. Good, I thought. I looked at sombra who was,currently sitting on my  brother's back, and put a disobedience collar on his neck. The collar would shock them if they didn't do as told and/or back talked.

"Get off my brother," I commanded at sombra, who was holding a hoof to the collar and trying to get it off with his magic. A shock made him get off. Noticing that he was trying to get it off I put a magic sealer around his horn. "Ah, ah, ah! Only the one who casts the spell on it can remove it!" I cooed. I willed a crystal cage into existence and a roll of strength suppressing tape. I wrapped the duck tape-like tape around each of sombra,shining, and cadence's thighs before picking them up in my magic and put them in my cage. I'm to give him the land... eventually. I thought. I tested my magic and found I had cadence's magic as well. So, that means I can make people get super horny seeing as cadenza has love powers? Cool. I went to the balcony of the crystal castle and began to talk I'm the royal canterlot voice,

"CITIZENS OF THE CRYSTAL KINGDOM!" I boomed, "YOU ARE NOW UNDER THE CONTROL OF QUEEN TWILIGHT SPARKLE! SUBMIT OR FACE MY WRATH!" I saw all the ponies had come out of their abouds and saw about 89/100ths of the ponies bow to me. A few stared before bowing, some automatically bowed, and a few flat-out refused. I began shouting again,

"ALL ROYAL GAURDS ARE TO REPORT TO THE THRONE ROOM!" I herd the sound of galloping towards the throne room and I sat in the throne and primed myself up. I destroyed the cage in the middle of the room and indented one into the wall against my right and put my captives in the cage. The guards burst into the room. some came to the middle and bowed to me and the 45 out of 50 that refused began charging at me. I huffed at this and grabbed all 45 in my magic. Picking randomly I ripped off a male guard's front leg, splattering blood everywhere. "Now, any more refusals?" Some bowed their head submissively and I lowered them to the floor. Now 38 remained.the one who's  leg I had ripped off still struggled franticly. I ripped off his other front leg. More blood. This time a splat landed at the corner of my mouth. I liked it off. I gave them a hard stare and more bowed their head. Now 15 remained. I ripped off his two hind legs and all but a female submissed. Ha! Good. A male and a female. I thought with a small smirk. I ripped off her front leg, but slowly twisting it instead of just ripping it off. I enjoyed her shrieks of pain. She tried submit by lowering her head.

"Oh, no, no, no!" I cooed teasingly, "There's no submitting now!" They were both pegsi so I only put the strength suppressing tape on their legs and wings. I left the mare's last three legs on and I sewed the skin around the wounds close after applying a infection-stopping liquid to it. I threw them into a cage I conjured up in the wall opposite to the former leaders and villain.

Well, this is going to be an eventful day...
