prologue

it can't be true...
...can it?

Spike jumped out the window, intent on getting the Crystal Heart to Cadence. Twilight,however, couldn't sit there and leave things up to chance. She had to get out somehow. Twilight put everything she got into her next attack, and the crystals shattered. She took a step forword to escape, but they regrew before she had a chance. A magical sensations sent shivers down her spin. it was a pules of dark magic. Dark magic like that could only mean one thing: Sombra got the Heart. She had to get out now or shes dead! that thought brought forth a whole new wave of power blasting out destroying the whole tower,which was good but... down side she blow up the floor as well. She fell onto a heap of ruble and a wight hand was in front of her to help her up, it was her bbbff. "What was that!?" Twilight looked behind him and saw Sombra with the Heart!

"We have no time he's here!" she pointed at him his eye's were upon Twilight they were like they were piercing her vary sole. A grin spread across his face reviling fangs, Shinning Armor gathered everyone and started to lead them to the borders portal Applejack and Rainbow Dash stayed in the back to make shier that no one fell behind but Twilight knew something the others didn't, and it was that they couldn't get away. At least not all of them.

The first to see the shadows was Twilight, as they fled, the shield couldn't stop them it was controlled by there master as everyone continued to run Twilight started to slow down and focused her magic, Fluttershy looked at her "we have to keep moving what's the matter," a tear slid down Twilight's face.

"Tell the Princess's what happened. I'll hold him off." Cadence saw Twilight's horn glow.

"NO!!! Twilight don..." before she could finish Twilight cast a teleportation spell on all of them, sending them somewhere safe from the King. Now alone in the bleak tundra she continued to move forth as the wind battered agents her. Thankfully she still had her coat or she would be a goner. Behind her the shadows were slipping past the Empires limits, in the mist of the darkness stood King Sombra standing tall with his black hair and grey coat and armor covering his whole body and his cape, red as blood, bellowed behind him.

Twilight was up to a gallop rushing through the blizzard and she didn't dare look back. She felt a tendril of darkness grasp her tail but she was able to slip away. Twilight didn't stop or look back she didn't hesitate she ran full gallop untell she reached some hills looking around she couldn't see Sombra anywhere so she ducked into a small cave.

The rush of everything that happened started to leave her and she realized just how tiered and in pain she was, she tried a simple light spell by she used all the magic she could muster just to get this far. Using the daylight that streamed in from the cave opening and looked at the damage. Bruises the size of baseball's were forming all over her body, she had a few cuts here and there but they were nothing, she also had a large cut that would have bin bleeding quite badly but stopped now. When she tried to breath a sharp pain shook her body, she probably had a creaked rib or two, maybe more. Looking around the cave she noticed something glowing in the back, she painfully walked over to the glow and found it was a an attempt to make a tunnel, though it was vary far in, it had crystals in the wall she looked around and for the first time she saw lot's of crystals in the wall. This was probably an attempt at making a mine but with no luck. In the "tunnel" there was a small hole that let in light that reflected off the crystals making the glow, the area wasn't big but big enough for her to curl up at the bottom, and the reflected light felt like sunshine to her. Twilight knew that if she fell a sleep just like that she would die so she cast a spell enchanting the light rays so that they would worm her up and cuddled underneath the light using her hands as a pillow she put her self into a dormant stat un-tell the light warmed her back up, and she knew no more.

******

Sombra stepped out into the beautiful winter that he had created long ago the sight was stunning to him but he could not enjoy. It because there was something more important that he had to deal with, the lavender pony that had enough power not only to break his spell, but to destroy to whole tower she was in and yet still able to teleport her friends to safety, not to mention the cleverness to get through all of his traps. That pony is dangers to have as an enemy, or great to have as an ally, even if she dose not wish that of her own free will. A smile spread across Sombra's face, for that he needed to make her break. Break into small pieces, that will be fun he hadn't been able to tortured somepony for a long time, he misted there begging for him to end there pain to end everything.

Sombra noticed something, a red dot in the snow and more making a trail, that pony had to have been bleeding after everything she's been through. He fallowed the path that the droplets of blood made. Slowly they got smaller and fainter, it seamed that at this point the wound stopped bleeding but from here on he could use a tracking spell. Even though her hoof prints are now long covered there still there and Sombra was able to revile the path that she had taken from the small bits of her essence she left behind. He resumed his search with the Crystal Heart by his side.

He came upon a small cave inside there was a faint glow so he stepped inside. The walls were decorated with crystals which seamed to shutter as he walked past, in a small dent in the wall, there she lay the unicorn that has so much power in that small... week... body. Just by looking at her he could tell that she put a hibernation spell on herself to keep from wasting liquids and nutrients, but falling asleep in a winter wasteland that wasn't vary smart. Kneeling next to her he said "it is such a good thing I have come to get you out of this cold." Sombra reached the unicorn that lay asleep on the floor of the cave but as soon as his hand meat the light rays he recoiled in pain! Somehow this small pony was able to manipulate the rays of light and turn them into rays of sunlight that would burn anyone that she dosn't want to pass. This made him even more determined to have her as his own. Looking for a way to break the spell, then realized what made the light rays, crystals. A small mistake she made, and she was so close to being kept there but Sombra... his special talent was crystals. Calling on his magic his horn glowed a sickly green and all the crystals turned black and stopped reflecting the light, that means no more protective sunlight. He piked up the unicorn now stopped by nothing and returned to his Empire.

******

Celestia was sitting in the dinning room with Luna waiting for news when a bright purple light appeared in the middle of the table. A tangle of pony's sat where the light emerged from, it was Cadence, Shinning Armor, Spike, and Twilight's five friends the worst part Twilight wasn't there. Celestia knew what this meant and went to worn the guard, Luna however asked what Celestia feared "What happened? are you alright and...and where's Twilight?" the tension in the room felt deadly and when Cadence spoke it felt like it was crushing them

"Twilight gave the Heart to Spike to deliver to me... but Sombra got there first. Twilight was able to escape the trap that held her in the tower... but as we ran I think she realized that he was going get us so she teleported us here and I don't know where she is now." Recounting what happen just made things harder like it made everything real Luna looked at them

"Twilight is in the hands of Sombra!? That is even more reason we must stop him and get her back! But we must be careful because so long as he's got the Heart he is seemingly un-stoppable." everypony nodded as there prepared for the upcoming battle that was not just for there friend but for all of Equestrya.

Author's Note

if i misselled something pleas tell me I am not the best speller. and thanks for reading

Celestia help me! If you can...

the shadows swallows everything even itself.

Sombra walked the empty halls of his castle with the lavender pony draped over his solder her long hair fell over her face as she hung, limp. The thoughts of what will come next made a smile grow on his face reviling fangs he didn't stop for anything, he went right to the dungeons. His castle had two dungeons, one was for though's he just wanted to scare thought's that make him angry, the other was for "special" guests, though's that he has plains for but would need a little... persuasion, like the one he has now.

Sombra walked up to a large iron door reinforced with his own magic so that only he and though's he want's can go in or out. Inside was the magic, all forms of tools hung on the walls and the ones that were too big are set on the floor, there was only one cell any others would be chained to the wall, the cell was always for the one he wanted most. Sombra opened the cell and through the mare inside, she landed with a thud on the ground. He removed her jacket and through it into a fire, not that she would need it anymore she had on a simple T-shirt and jeans that were already messed up from the fight and attempted flight, he walked over to a shelf and grabbed on of the rings that rested on it. They were made out of his black crystal with ruin carved on the side, he placed the ring on the unicorns horn, now if she tried to use magic not only would it not work she would get a sharp pain through her body. Satisfied he left to gather his guard that were still loyal and to put this back the way he want's it.

******

Twilight's spell started to lift and as she was waking up she realized something wrong. First thing she felt was the cold hard ground, true that the cave was the same but this was not natural, it was hand made. she heard no wind that would have been blowing and she felt the glow of fire all around her. This was not a good sign! When Twilight opened her eyes she saw a black stone wall with a bed attached to it kept up by chains also attached to the wall, pushing herself to her knees she looked around, three stone walls and... iron bars, she was in a cell she grabbed one of the bars to pull her self up and looked out. What she saw would hunt her for the rest of her life! Torture tools everywhere, chains hung from the wall with open cuffs waiting to hold somepony.

Twilight couldn't look at the sight before her, her lags started to feel weak and gave away, she had to find a way out of there. Magic was the first thing she tried, but nothing happened, trying again magic did pool but instead of casting her spell in shoot through her body with a sharp pain, like it was turned into a blade travailed through her body. When it stopped she lifted her hand to her horn where she found a ring on it, a anti-magic ring, grabbing it with both hand's she tried to pull it off but it wouldn't so much as budge, it was enchanted on. Turning her mind back onto an escape plain, she had to get back to her friends and protect Equestria and finish what she started, getting the Crystal Heart to Cadence... somehow.

Twilight's though's were shattered when the door on the other side of the room opened, a chill ran through the room sending a shiver up her spin. Twilight got to her hooves to address the pony entering, it was Sombra! A smile on his face showed his fangs. The door closed with a slam behind him "well, well, well... your awake," his laugh froze Twilight's insides, he walked around the round room as he talked. "So your the one that was smart, crafty, and strong enough to get through all my traps. To bad you let that pathetic excuse for a dragon try and Fail to get the plucky Princess, this!" wrapped in Sombra's dark aura was the Crystal Heart. Twilight stood strong she was not going to let him get away with this, she was going to stop him. She meet his cold eyes.

"And what do you want with me, he. Why not just kill me?" Twilight was not ready for what he said.

"Because your strong, I did a little research on you ,Twilight Sparkle the most powerful unicorn ever seen. pony's like you are rare, and being who you are Celestia would find it hard if not, impossible to fight you. Even if your just a hallow shell."

"And what makes you think that I'll ever join you!"

Sombra smile "that is exactly why this room was built, and besides there is more to you then you even know! I can see it and that makes you perfect for my plains."

Twilight didn't want to know what his plains are, "Sombra! You can't make me do Anything! I won't hurt though's I care about, and they will stop you!" Twilight slammed her fist on to the bar's of her cell looking at Sombra who has stopped in front of her, "You can try to anything you wish to get me to brake but it won't happen, ever!" Twilight hissed the last words and Sombra Laughed at her.

"That's just what her last vessel said..." he turned and stared to walk away "enjoy this last moment of peace because tomorrow the fun begins."

The last word echoed in the air long after the doors closed behind the colt. What did he mean by vessel, who is he talking about and what dose he want with her? Thousands of questions filled her head but one thing was clear, when he came back her hell would begin. Curling up on the bed in the cell she said "Celestia help me! If you can..." with tears coming to her eyes she prepared herself for what was to come.

Author's Note

I know nothing on the other's this time, well you better get use to it because, yes they do come up but it's mostly Twilight and Sombra, though latter on I will do a chapter only for them.

thanks for reading

It begins

Strength comes in many forms
but it always comes from the heart

Warning this chapter contains pain to character so if you don't like that don't read this chapter. But this is the worst it's going to get

Twilight had no idea how she was going to get out of this but she had to... somehow. She was trying to remember as many details as possible from her time in the castle, before all this. She was laying on the wooden bed in her cell and as she thought of this she picked at the wood, which gave her an idea! She moved her pillow and started to scratch out a diagram of the castle in the wood and for the things she didn't know she would make a best estimate. This was for things like where this room was and how everything fell into place in the castle, this was her best chance of getting out of here and stopping Sombra.

The creek of the iron door's told Twilight that someone was coming and it was most likely Sombra. Twilight quickly hide her work with her pillow and sat up to look at the pony that now stood before her.

"Lesser beings should bow before there King," his black coat seemed to be darker then before but it was still the monster known as Sombra.

"I only bow to true rulers that deserve it. And that is not you Sombra." Twilight his his name as though it was acid on her tongue. The hatred she felt towards Sombra only made him laugh like she was joking

Oh dear. dear Twilight. You won't believe that for much longer." Sombra said as he moved to objects that hung on the wall. This was when Twilight noticed there was somepony behind him, it was a Crystal pony, she had a dirty blue coat and dull hair that probably was a vibrant light purple before. She wore an old dress that resembled a potato bag, she was pushing a cart a lot of supply's, mainly cleaning. What that was for Twilight didn't want to know.

When Sombra turned his attention back to Twilight, the other pony backed herself out of view of the cage. Sombra's horn glowed and there was a rattle of chains, before Twilight could react four restraints flew at her and clamped around her wrists and ankles! They pulled her off the bed and she hung suspended in mid air. Twilight desperately tried to free herself but it was no good.

Sombra entered the cell with a strange looking collar, it was leather with strange runes on it. Using his magic it was strapped around Twilight's neck, "you may not want to make any sounds or you'll get a nasty surprise." A smile formed on Sombra's face as he grabbed a sharpen red stone. Twilight knew what it was as soon as she saw it, a fire stone said to be made when a powerful dragon die's by another and wants revenge. What it dose is, it attaches to it's victim and cause pain to said pony.

There powerless when there victims die, but this one still had magic "h...AH" the collar vibrated slightly and electricity ran through Twilight making her recoil in pain. Sombra only smiled holding the stone he approached Twilight, when he was right in front of her, Twilight looked him in the eyes. What she saw was joy, to him this was amazing, the best thing ever! And that made her hate him even more. With one swift movement Sombra stabbed Twilight in the stomach with the stone, the magic activated and it felt like someone set her insides on fire. She cried out in pain which caused the collar to activate sending electricity coursing through her body, causing her scream even louder, tears streamed down her cheeks, but Twilight knew that she couldn't give up.

When Sombra pulled out the stone the wound had burned its self closed, but he was far from finished. He stabbed Twilight ten times, each in a different spot and each time causing more and more pain. Twilight cried out each time and the collar activated. The last stab made Twilight scream so loud that any glass that was in the room shattered add on the electricity it was a surprise she didn't lose her voice right there. Electric fire stormed through her body and even though her mind and spirit were strong she felt something waver, her body was not meant to withstand things like this, it was going to break before she got a chance to fight, she had to do something!

When Sombra was done Twilight could barely move, and her throat felt as though she swallowed glass. Sombra exited the cage and snapped at the crystal pony to do her job as the chains released Twilight, her numb body hit the ground with a loud thud as the crystal pony entered her cell.

******

What she saw scared her, she saw the purple unicorns once beautiful coat was now showing large black burn marks, her hair and tail were a tangled mess, some of her nails looked as though they spent a long time scratching at something. A loud clang behind her meant that Sombra left and the first thing the pony did was run over to the limp form on the floor "oh Celestia" she cried as she removed the collar from around the unicorns neck and what she saw underneath was horrifying! All the fur was burned off and left a thick black mark that would probably be there forever. She did everything she could to help she cleaned the wounds and applied everything from creams to bandages and brought in the food that she brought for the unicorn, celery soap, water, and a apple and feed it to her. She sat the unicorn ageist the wall as she started to re-gain control

"who are you?" her voice was like sandpaper.

"I'm Hope Shard" she said, Hope Shard was kinda glad that the unicorn care at all after what she's been through "can I ask who you are?"

The unicorn smile at Hope she was happy to know there was at least one kind pony here "Twilight Sparkle"

Twilight got a look in her eye like she just found something important. She took Hopes hand and gave her a small wight crystal "I need you to do some thing for me please!" the way she talked it was as if she was going to die "I don't know how long my body can last with this, but my mind and spirit can. I need you to keep this safe and when it changes colors bring it to princess Celestia." tears came to Twilight's eyes as fear that she would say no "please your my only hope".

Hope Shard didn't know what to say so she took the crystal and nodded. Twilight looked as though Hope agreeing just saved the world.

Author's Note

ya ya only hope cheese, but it fit. Besides that I have to say this or type this whatever. I Can't believe that i was this harsh I had an issue as a muse and I get this wow! I don't think I'm going into another story like this latter on.

about the story next chapter is the one I'm focusing on Twilight's friends and what they've been up to. and the collar is a crazy strong shock collar just so you know.

We are at war

to fight something you have to fell it.

Princess Celestia was gathering the tropes to head to the Crystal Empire, she had already waited too long. It was a week ago that she got the news of Sombra, and how Twilight was captured and everything was moving too slow still. the army was together but the supplies were missing, Twilight's friends were prepared to lead everyone if need be. Even if Twilight's friends weren't the welders of the Elements of Harmony they would still fight because the monster named Sombra who took there dear friend, and he was going to pay!

Shining and Cadence, along with Rainbow, Rarity, Pinkie, Applejack, and Fluttershy worked together on a plain to find and save Twilight, Cadence provided a map of the castle as Rarity tried to learn magic that is outside her expertise, being friends with Twilight has a lot of ups to it. Rainbow and Fluttershy trained with there speed as AJ and Pinkie worked on strength. No one though of what happened last time, they focused on what could happen, no what will happen.

They came up with a plain but it was a gamble which Celestia and Luna did not like it. "We are not willing to lose more of you to this monster and walking right next to him is too risky. And it won't matter if your hidden! No matter how well." Celestia was trying to talk them out of the plain but she knew that they would go through with it anyway the cost to them was nothing to the lose they already felt.

"Auntie we have to do this!" Cadence was pleading for the say so "Twily needs us" Shining didn't say anything and kept his face blank but his eyes held every unspoken word that he was ready to explode with as the grope fallows the princess's to the throne room "please."

They entered the room and after the door's closed behind them a sound proofing spell was cast and Celestia said "alright tell me the details." that got everypony's attention "with or with out my permission you are going to go. So I might as well know what you are doing and see if there's something I can do to help."

Rainbow took the lead from here "well the plain is to cast ether an invisibility charm or a illusion spell on some objects and sneak into the castle."

Applejack took over "from there we can fallow Sombra tell he leads us straight to Twilight. We learn what's keeping her there and..." Rarity cut in.

"And that is where i will come in. I shall use my magic and break any charms and spells present."

"And... I'll...I'll take care of her injury's," Fluttershy muttered

Then Pinkie popped out of nowhere "this is the part where I make a distraction and everyone, This time with Twilight, will escape into your forces." she finished pulling out her party cannon. and Shining steps up.

"And as they escape Cadence and I will get the Crystal Heart and use it to put a stop to Sombra once and for all." He balled his hand into a fist and seamed like he was ready to let it lose.

There was tension, and one thought they all had this was the only and best chance they have. Luna was about to speak when there was a purple flash and laying in the middle of the room was a light blue pony with purple hair. Slowly the pony took in everything around her, her eyes were disks when she realized where she was "Who are you and why are you here" Princess Luna spoke up. the pony was startled as she looked form one pony to another.

"My name is Hope Shard. And a pony named Twilight Sparkle asked me to give this to her friends." at first no one could move when this was said. In the pony's hand was a crystal that looked like the sunset. Celestia was taken aback when she realized what it was.

"Sister." Luna looked at Celestia "is that what I Think it is?" she was looking back at the crystal, and Celestia could only nod "but how is that possible that spell has been lost for century's, how could she cast it." Celestia couldn't speak but that didn't keep Applejack silent.

"Um, excuse me but what in the hay are ya'll talking about?!" everyone was as confused as she was. Celestia finial found her voice.

"We are talking about the crystal. If I am correct then this crystal hold's a soul," there was silence as they waited for her to continue "And if the pony who gave you this crystal is who you say then that means it is her soul is within here and her body is nothing but a shell now. And this is even worse then I thought." no one liked the sound of that.

next chapter is Hope Shards side of that day. Thanks for reading.

What to do

Author's Note

this one is the same day but in Hope Shard's view. by the way the armor at the end should be easy to tell who's is who's.

What to do

There are things scarier
then the dark

It was been a week from the day she got the crystal, what the thing was, she had no idea. Not the mention that she was the one that took care of Twilight once the King was done with her, and she had to witness it. Why she didn't know, probably because of her name or the fact that she actually dose still have hope and he's trying to scare it out of her. Not that it will work.

Each day the painful screams grew more and more, and after Twilight looked worse and worse. One day Twilight had screamed so loud she lost her voice for a short time, but the apple that Hope Shard brought for her everyday made her eyes light up. It was like she was meeting a long lost friend, when ever Hope tried to ask about the crystal, Twilight would go completely silent. The burns, cuts, stabs, and more littered Twilight's body. The crystal was the only hope she had left, so Hope Shard wanted to protect it, with her life if she had to.

Today King Sombra didn't show up but another servant did. She didn't know him but she could tell he was here on Sombra's orders, he told her that she wasn't needed today and to stay in her room. Her room was better then a cell, barely, there was a bed and a desk, the walls were cold stone and there was a small window with a perfect view of the portal. She had been in her room for an hour when a sudden warmth, in her pocket, caught her attention. She pulled out the crystal that rested there, when it wasn't hidden in one of the many nooks or creaks in the walls of her room. The crystal did exactly what Twilight had told her, it changed colors, it now looked like the sunset with multiple shades of purple and pink. This means that she has to get out of there now before Sombra realizes that she has this... what ever it is.

Hope Shard walked out of her room and went to the kitchen, doing her best to not seam suspicious, though everyone there was pretty much doing the same thing. When she got there she found the list of things needed in the market, this was her ticket out. She told the person usually in charge of it that she would take care of it, while thinking 'I'm going to leave this rotten place behind.' she had all the path's through the city memorized and if any of the guards stopped her, well that was the best part of being a servant, she just said she was doing it for the king.

Hope was walking through the market and was almost at the portal when it happened. A yell, so angry, so full of hate and, rang throughout the whole empire, it was Sombra, he found out that she left, even though she was told to stay in her room. Hope like everyone else froze and looked at the castle, Sombra and his guards would be looking for her now, most likely for the crystal which must be vary important. 'maybe I should just get rid of it, save a lot of trouble,' that's when she heard it.

"Please don't. You promised me you would get this to the princesses."

The voice spoke in her head, startling her. She gave a small yelp, in surprise, and tried talking back, also in her head. 'Uh, who is this and what are you doing in my head?' Hope knew she wasn't that crazy, at least not yet. When the voice answered it only proved ether she was more crazy then she thought or it truly is another pony.

"It's Twilight." a image of the pony after her last betting flashed into her mind. blood had been running down her head from her nearly severed ear, still in the taters of her clothing. IT was a knife this time, poisoned, she was stabbed all over her body, blood and urine coated the floor, and the electric brace around her neck. Some how non of the wounds hit anything important, but green slime was in the flesh, making more pain as it entered the body. That day was one of the best for her which brought a tear to Hope's eyes thinking of that mares pain. Twilight continued talking...or thinking... whatever you would call it.

"I can't explain everything right now but if you can get through the port..." But Twilight was cut off from the clattering of armored hooves, and it sounded close.

"RUUUNNNN!!!!"

Twilight yelled in her head giving Hope a headache, though she didn't question it. She ran full tilt to the portal, hoping to be seen as one of the panicking pony's, as it seamed all were on the move, running in every detection. A chill rain through the air, and she turned around regretting that decisions. A black crystal was now forming in the center of the road, and standing atop of it was King Sombra, his venomous green eyes falling on the fleeing girl, cold fury was clear as the storm raging beyond the portal. "Arrest that traitor!" her bellowed as the pony's closed in, Hope jumped through the portal.

The moment she crossed through the portal she felt a cold wind hit her body, she closed her eyes to prepare for the frozen, wet, landing. But something completely different happened, she felt a warm strong magic run through her body like a raging river, things twisted and turned tell she was sick. The spinning stopped and she landed on the ground, it was cold but it was... stone? Did she miss the portal? Did they get her? That would mean she fail Twilight, and get her family the only people she cared about into trouble. She opened her eyes and looked around and saw she was in Canterlot castle standing before her was nine people, she somehow got to the castle, and she had a feeling that it has something to do with Twilight. "Who are you? Why are you here?" A strong scary voice almost yelled at her. She turned to see a deep blue alicorn in silver armor, next to her was a with alicorn in golden armor. and the grope of pony's behind them all wearing armor, orange, cyan blue, pink, soft yellow, wight with dark purple, purple with gold, and the last alicorn in a pink and purple set. she looked back to Princess Luna, she wasn't going to fail her only friend.

"My name is Hope Shard. A girl named Twilight Sparkle asked me to give this to her friends." and she pulled out the crystal.

plains

Author's Note

Twilight's/Sombra's view.

plains

One light is all you need to free yourself from

total darkness

It had only been a week of this hell, maybe more, Twilight lost track. She learned things she never wanted to know, like how it feels to be cut open. Every time Sombra came in he always put on the collar, the waves of pain it gave was enough to pull tears from her eyes, and the fact that she was all ready practically being kill before hand made it all the more worse. She was barely hanging on to herself, but she had a plain. After Sombra claims her body he will most likely destroy her soul, or banish it, but she had to get out of there! Even if that meant leaving her body behind. Over her time here Twilight was able to pool some magic within her for when the time comes to escape, and it seems like it was today.

King Sombra entered but he was not fallowed by Hope, which means it was now or never.

Sombra looked at his captive, her body was battered and bruised so greatly that he knew it was time. Her bones have been broken into powder, her fur a bloody mess, her horn creaked at multiple locations, scars ran up and down her whole body. But her eyes still burned with pure determination and strength, though not for long.

Shadow tendrils exploded from the ground and wrapped around Twilight and started to go into her mouth and eyes.

******

Twilight was surrounded by black, as more pain then she ever felt corsed through her body, the tendrals were trying to pull her vary essence apart. Though they were now in her body, where the magic blocking ring has no effect. She blast a wave of magic through everything, as the tendrals recoiled she bolted through the darkness. More tendrals formed and tried to grab her but she was in home turf now, nother could mess with her here, expessialy with the pool of magic she had been saving the whole time she was held.

She felt the shadows take over her body as her spirit ran to the only safe place left, the centre, where everything flows through, the greatest area of magical power. That's where everything was pooled, her magic and the spell.

When she got there she charged straight into the centre of it, not a single shadow could or would fallow her there. She charged the spell and it over took everything that tried to block it, as her soul fled her body.
