A Thousand Years Later...

Celestia allowed the Sun to rise as she had done for all the years her reign had been founded. She beamed as her new chef entered the room, in a ball of levitation magic was a tray.

"Thank You, MintFragrance. I presume it's the new soup I ordered?"

"Tomato and a hint of lemon soup... I added a secret ingredient. I hope your royal lips will enjoy it."

"I'm sure they will." She smiled, her eyes sparkling as she sipped it. When she had paused, she looked over MintFragrance, her green hair covering her frightened eyes. "It's wonderful. Pray tell, what is this ingredient?"

"Your doom." Celestia felt her muscles and joints freeze, and she began to panic. MintFragrance smirked, and transformed into Nightmare Moon.

"Who are you?" The dark mare tutted, her wings unfolding as she stepped closer to the white alicorn.

"Hath thou forgotten me? The Lunar Princess?" She put on a fake mask of innocence.

"Pardon me?"

"Many apologies, you will know me as Her Highness, The Empress Of Equestria. You will address me as such, sister."

"How dare you? You shall never dethrone me!"

"Let's see about that. It won't be hard. You are paralysed. The best way to torture a royal. I know,"

She threw her hooves onto her wings, ensure direct contact with her curse. Her horn ignited a dark colour, and suddenly, Celestia gave cries of agony. The Royal Guards threw themselves into the throne room, but the magical atmosphere was too large, and they were forced to fall by the gravitational increase.

Celestia's horn began to fade, followed by her wings. Her magical hair too had suddenly turned into a short, pink mane. The regal Cutiemark on her flank had disappeared, and the princess was unconscious.

The pain had obviously been great, and Nightmare Moon couldn't help but feel sorry for her. "Be glad I didn't kill you, and I did not show mercy." Her horn enveloped itself once more with a dark blue colour, and the princess was sent to the dungeon.

"Oh, and one more thing..." Celestia had been stripped to the same size as that of Rarity or Applejack, Pinkie or Rainbow, or Fluttershy.

I should fix my pronouns, shouldn't I? Alright, fine... Though it pains me, I shall.

Nightmar- I destroyed Celestia's throne with a shot of lightening. The Guards stared in utter terror, the pony was destroying the castle... Vandalising. Where were Cadence? Twilight? That was when they recognised it. Celestia's Knowledge-Removing Spell had been disabled, and they instantly recognised me.

Nightmare Moon, Mare Of The Moon...
