The Prince of darkness.

I ran alongside Blaze towards the battlefield in Canterlot. Pony's, griffins, and a few dragons were fighting pegasi, airships, and planes. It was clear that Nightmare Moon was winning this fight. In the history books she was losing, oh how wrong they were. Nightmare Moon's troopers were wearing black armor and Celestia's gold, which was a big help to see who I was going to fight. If they were wearing the same color of armor, then I would end up killing both friendly and hostiles.

I stopped to catch my breath on a ridge where I had a good view of the battle. If I was going to make it to Everfree castle to save Celestia from Nightmare Moon. Then I would need to fight my way through both armies if possible.

"Why did you ditch me!" Blaze huffed from the four-mile sprint.

"You fell behind!" I said. "But that's not important right now. Blaze lend me your power," I ordered.

"What?! After you ditched me!"

"NOW!" I yelled unsheathing my two scythes.

"Fine," she winced.

I absorbed her entire body, giving me all her powers just in time to dodge a cannon ball fired from an airship that was making its way to me. I jumped into the air and took flight and made the airship my target. Using my superior speed, I broke the distance between the ship and I, in mere seconds.

"Fire!" yelled a pony on the ship.

I dodged the cannon ball's with ease then I slashed the balloon of the airship, causing it to crash down to the ground. I continued to fly at breakneck speeds, hoping that I won't get caught up in the crossfire of the battle below, bu that didn't happen. Another airship cut me off from passing over the battlefield causing my to fly straight down into the fray. I landed onto of a group of Celestia's troops, accidentally killing them with my weight.

"Shit," I muttered.

A pony charged me with a spear from the front, and a fireball came from behind. I jumped up into the air, causing the fireball to hit the spearman, incinerating the pony to ash. There was no scream, only silent terror.

I felt the mage getting ready to cast another spell with my wings. If I was going to make it to Celestia in this fight. Then I will need to use a spell I didn't want to use.

I grabbed the biggest crystal that I brought with me. I filled the crystal up with magic before I came here as a just in case. I thought of the spell I was going to use and focused my magic.

I flew up into the air as high as I could dodging arrows and cannon balls from both sides. Once at a good height. I threw the crystal down to the center of the battlefield and cast my spell. "Nigrum foramen," I said, causing the crystal to erupted into a giant black hole.

I flew as fast as I could away from the battlefield only to look back as both armies get swallowed up by the black hole.

What was my kill count now? Several hundred thousand? A million? At least all evidence of human tech was erased. No stopping now to mourn the dead.

I landed at Everfree castle and made my way to the Hall of Harmony. Celestia and Nightmare Moon won't show up for awhile, giving me some time to make a game plan.

If I was going to save Celestia then I would need to pose as her and take her place, which means I'm will be the one that will banish Luna to the moon.

Sorry, Lulu. I will make it up to you later.

"Princess, are you sure this is the right course of action?" said a stern voice from within the hall. I stopped and hid behind the door to listen in on what they were saying.

"It isn't the right course. I know that all too well, but it's the necessary action to take. To banish my sister from ever hurting another soul."

"But princess! There must be another way!"

"No but's captain. There isn't another way to free her from her hatred towards me. It's all my fault, and I must fix it."

"Princess..."

"Yes. What is it now?"

"There's someone here."

Shit they found me.

"Good luck demon. Celestia is going to kill you."

"I doubt it. I can sense how strong she is, and at the moment, she won't even scratch me, let alone defeat Nightmare Moon. Which is why I must take her place, to ensure that she lives."

"Whatever, she won't believe you no matter what you say."

"You really don't like me."

"You don't say."

I walked out of my hiding hole revealing myself to Celestia and her mysterious captain.

"A GRIFFIN! Celestia, stay back," the captain in gold armor ordered getting in front of the young and slightly beaten princess. I didn't pay any mind to them. I casually walked up to them through the decorated room. Just like the show. This room was mostly stone and tapestry of the two sisters. A dusty red rug was rolled out from the elements of harmony to the entrance where the princess and the captain were standing in full armor, and wielding weapons to boot. There was night lighting per say, except for the half sun half moon eclipse giving of what little illumination through the stained glass windows.

The captain was glaring at me with slits for eyes, clearly not liking that I was here. Celestia, however, held her head up high in resignation towards my presence. Even a thousand years younger, she still thinks that pride will instill fear in everyone around her. No wonder why she's a train wreck in the future.

"Hault!" the captain ordered pointing his giant ax at me. Wait... That's Midnight Thunders battle ax, which means that this is his ancestor. I best not accidentally kill him. I might fuck up the future.

I stopped halfway between the captain and me casually smiling away like nothing is wrong with this scene.

"How did you find us?" asked Celestia drawing her golden halberd.

"I know the future. That's all." I continued to smile.

"If you know the future, then this is the end for you. Captain don't let him pass. I need to save all my strength for when Nightmare Moon arrives."

"Yes your highness," the captain cheered drawing his giant moon shaped battle ax, spinning it around his neck with delicate ease.

"I got to say, you are quite trained with the physical arts, but can you beat a dragonslayer?" I said drawing my two scythes and copied the captain, but I spun them around my wings and waist. I must no kill the guy, but that doesn't mean that I can knock him out and show him what's it mean to fight someone that you have no clue how strong he is.

I walked on my hind legs with slight effort. The extra spring would give me more speed that walking on all fours would have. Celestia watched closely, trying to gauge how strong I was. The captain slowly walked up to me, balancing his ax on his shoulders with refined practice, but it was futile. I lunged at him, bringing both of the butts of my scythes along the ground for an uppercut. The captain dodged and parried the cut. Big mistake. As he took both my scythes out of my hands, I clocked him upside the head, knocking him out cold, then I caught my weapons before the hit the ground and turning my attention to Celestia.

"One down, one to go," I smirked, but Tia didn't give a damn. She aimed her halberd at me, bringing it close to her side. I knew she was going to use her insane speed to take me out in a flash, but knowing that gave me the advantage.

Celestia lunged as I predicted and fell straight into my trap. I stepped to the right by one foot, extended my left arm, and felt Tia get clotheslined on my arm. She slammed down on the ground beside me, winded from the blow, but that didn't stop her. I jumped playfully onto of her head as she was trying to get back up and did the river dance with her skull.

Tia tried to push me off with her halberd, but every time she swiped I either jumped over it or blocked it with ease. Tia eventually gave up from the embarrassing display of mockery sheathing her halberd.

"Bout, done?" I chuckled still dancing on her head.

"Get off me you coward!" she demanded. Time to show her that I am friendly.

"I'm no coward, I'm fluffy. Fluffy the Yoyo. If you want me off, the ask nicely."

"I don't bargain with the enemies of Equestria Fluffy!"

I slapped her nose with my toe, causing her to fall back on her haunches. I jumped off of her head and sat relatively smaller than her, but only by a hair. Tia was dumbfounded, I could tell from the confusion in her eyes. It was like she just met the reincarnation of Discord himself, but I wasn't.

Time to break the ice I guess.

"Hello Tia, how are you?" I smiled. She grabbed her halberd with telekinesis and threw it at my head where I caught it with just my bare hands.

"That's rude. I'm trying to be nice, and you are taking it like a murder of crows. Very rude indeed."

"Who are you?" she glared before her face swelled up with a festering confusion. "Are you, Evermind?"

Who the hell is this, Evermind? Well, I guess I can find out, I have five minutes before Nightmare Moon get's here.

"Maybe I am, maybe I'm not. I did say I know the future, didn't I?" I said letting go of the retreating halberd.

"Then it is you," she gasped eyes growing wide in awe. "What business do you have with me, and why are you a griffin?"

"First. I am a griffin because I was born as one. Second. I am here to save you. Third. How do you now who I am?"

"I am greatly sorry," she bow stifling some tears. Okay, whoever this Evermind guy is. He is clearly very important to Celestia. I must tread carefully so that I don't hit a soft spot.

"It's okay, you had no idea who I was. It was not your fault. You were right to attack me."

"I don't deserve your forgiveness."

"Yeah, yeah. Don't deserve, whatever. Listen," I said.

"Yes?"

"You are in grave danger. You won't defeat Luna, she is too powerful. Even is you have the Elements of Harmony you'll die before you get the chance to use them. So I ask you. Let me fight her while you take care of the kingdom. I'll make sure that when you see her again. She'll be pure of all hate that has festered within her being."

"But Evermind!"

"Not but's!" I blurted causing Celestia to cringe like a little girl.

"I'll send you home. I know fighting family is best left with family, but there is no hope for you. I treat Lulu like family too, but I know that I can save her while you cannot. Don't take this lightly Tia as you won't remember it by morning."

"What do you mean?"

"I'm sorry Tia, but it's time to go to bed," I said snapping my fingers activating a spell that put her to sleep. I Quickly cast another spell that erased her visual memory fo me, but not what I said to her and thenI teleported her to Canterlot castle for safe keeping.

I sat in front of the elements of harmony, waiting for Nightmare Moon to show up. I'm not sure how I am going to defeat her, but I know it will end up with me using the elements of harmony. If I get that far. While I wait as Celestia, I pondered as to where I could find Silent Night. The moon presence. I can assume that she would be hidden where Luna would keep all her most powerful weapons. But where would that be?

I can assume that she would be hidden where Luna would keep all her most powerful weapons. But where would that be?

"Maybe you should ask Luna when she get's here?" sighed Blaze. She was greatly disappointed that Celestia didn't kill me, that, and the fact that she also called me by Evermind. A person with great influence over Celestia. I was very curious about him, and the fact that Tia compared him to me, but that thought will have to wait another day.

"Blaze, do you really think Nightmare Moon would just tell me where Silent Night is?"

"No, but it's worth a shot."

"You're helpful," I sighed.

"I know," she mocked. I got up and sang while shaking my butt.

"I like big butt's and I cannot lie!"

"So how long... Hey, stop that!" Blaze demanded as I sang in Celestia's body.

"Look at my huge sun butt!" I laughed mockingly.

"Stop making fun of the princess!" Blaze growled in my mind.

"Look at me I'm white and nerdy," I said breaking down into hysteria.

Blaze kept trying to prevent me from making fun of Celestia by talking which didn't work, but I had my fun. Once I calmed down from my maniacal giggle fits, I check up on Nightmare Moon to see how far she was from me. Thankfully, she was just outside of the castle, slowly making her way through, absorbing the scenery one last time before we destroy the castle.

*Boom!* Went the main double doors as Nightmare Moon busted through them.

Nightmare Moon walked through the smoke created by the doors and walked up to me, head held high. I tried my best to act out Tia, but it was a lot harder than I thought it would be. I kept my head as I high as I could to keep Tia's sense of duty and waited patiently for Nightmare Moon to walk up to me. So far she doesn't know that I was just a double, but if she finds out that I am a fake, then I am big trouble.

"Hello, sister," I said with authority.

"Hello, Celestia!" Nightmare growled back.

"So how long has it been since we last saw each other in this castle? A month, a year?" Nightmare smugly asked stopping just a few meters away from me.

"Too long sister," I said.

"Hmpf, Still holding on to the hope that I will return to your pitiful authority. Ha! Celestia, you will not be leaving here as a princess nor alive."

"If that is your wish, then I will grant it."

Silence.

Nightmare Moon and I locked our eye to each other trying to gauge who will win this last fight. She believes that she will win, but I know better. The real Tia would lose, but I am not Tia. What happens next will not only hurt physically, but emotionally as well. I didn't want to be the one that sends Lulu away, but it is inevitable. I will make it up to her when I return from this journey.

"DIE!" Nightmare yelled, lunging at me with blinding speed. I did the same, bringing my golden halberd with telekinesis close to my side.

We both locked at the halfway point, the crash between our weapons destroyed all the windows and weakened the roof. I pushed her off and cast a light beam spell which connected, sending her through the castle. I teleported to her where she slashed wildly for a cheap hit, but I was ready for it. I blocked all her swipes just before she crashed into the library, ending her flight.

Nightmare didn't let up though. She quickly sent a moonbeam spell of her own, causing me to fly through the castle just as she did. Did I feel pain? No, Celestia's armor is fucking amazing! But I don't think it would last another hit like that though.

I shook my head clearing off the dirt that came from the many crumbling holes of the castle. Nightmare Moon walked through the holes like a predator searching for her prey. I shot several spell's at the roof just above Nightmare's head causing the ceiling to collapse on top of her. I knew this wouldn't stop her for long, so I jumped into the air and took flight outside of the castle.

I flew as high as I could before Nightmare Moon could catch up. In the castle, I didn't have a decent chance of not taking damage from the environment. but out in the open also left me vulnerable to all her aerial attacks.

Just as I broke the cloud cover, Nightmare grabbed my hind leg and threw me back towards the ground. I tried to recover, but Nightmare's moonbeam caught me halfway sending me down to the earth at god killing speeds. I just barely landed on all fours destroying my armor and quickly bolted in flight again, but closer to the ground. Nightmare kept launching spell after spell at me, preventing me from getting close to ending this battle.

As reckless as I was. I bolted upwards sending a few spells of my own at her, giving me an opening to get close. Nightmare had the same idea, however, this time when we met up halfway from the third time. I grabbed her neck with telekinesis and threw her down to the ground the same way as she did me.

I sent a light beam spell down to her and Nightmare sent a moonbeam spell up to me. Both of our rays locked in the middle creating a black sun. I pumped as much magic as I could to prevent the spell from hitting me. Nightmare did the same, pushing as much magic as she could to take me down. If it weren't for Blaze, I would have die at this point, but thankfully I at least had a chance. Nightmare was stronger and my strength was already wavering. I released the spell and let the ray hit me in full force causing me to fall to the ground straight into the hall of harmony.

I landed at the base of the statue barely awake from the strain of over magic use. Instead of boosting my chaos magic twenty-four-seven, I should have also boosted my neutral magic, bit it's too late now. Just as Nightmare entered my vision, I reached out to the elements, hoping that I could use them. There I felt a spark, just as Nightmare entered the castle with bloodlust in her eyes.

"I'm sorry," I cried as I took control of the elements and unleashed them on her. A sphere of rainbow light surrounded me just as Nightmare got close for a killing blow.

"I'm sorry," I cried as I took control of the elements and unleashed them on her. A sphere of rainbow light surrounded me just as Nightmare got close for a killing blow.

Nightmare was held in the air in an ever growing rainbow, slowly coating her entire body. She struggled to break free, sending spells to try to free herself from the rainbow, but to no avail. I coughed turning myself back to normal. Nightmare noticed my change and stared in disbelief. I gave her a sad smile. I tried my best not to tear up. I was going to be the cause for the pain between Celestia and Luna, and they wouldn't remember it.

"Please forgive me, Lulu. I will make it up to you in the future," I choked.

"Lulu?" Nightmare Moons voice cracked back into its original tone. I watched as Nightmare Moon was cleansed from Luna's body, but that didn't stop the spell from sending her to the moon. I tried my best to hold it back to learn of Silent Night.

"How do you know that?" she teared up realizing the war she created. "What have I done?"

"It's alright Lulu, I'm a friend. Though, you won't remember me, but I will. In the future, I will be there for you. Don't put yourself down for what happened, It wasn't your fault," I explained starting to struggle with the spell.

"A friend? W- Where's Celestia!?" she cried.

"Safe and sound, Why?"

"I need to say."

"I'm sorry?" I finished her sentence. She nodded.

"It's alright Lulu. She knows, *Bleh!" I puked up blood and collapsed.

"Griffin!" Lulu asked concerned. I tried to get back up, but the spell was starting to rip me apart. I got to let her go soon.

"It's okay. I'm fine. I just need to find someone later," I coughed up more blood.

"Find someone?"

"Yeah, her name is Silent Night."

"I know her! She is a griffin like you, but she is brown with a zebra."

Brown with a zebra. Fuck me.

"Thank's. That's all I need to know, but I am afraid you can't stay much longer, or it will kill me."

"Your welcome, but will. Will big sister ever forgive me?"

"Of course she will," I assured her though a bloody smile.

"Then let me go, I am ready to go now," she sobbed.

"Goodnight Lulu."

"Goodnight Winter."

As I heard my name leave her mouth through a sad smile, I couldn't help but give her one back. She knew who I was the entire time and that hurt allot more that It should have. The pain from the spell finally released. Celestia was safe and her memories rewritten. I passed out on the cold stone feeling the elements of harmony return to their rightful place in the statue. The last thought that welled within my mind before my eyes closed was that heather was the moon presence. A person that I sent away to be a sex slave.

"Fuck me."
