Chapter one (edited)

Celestia sighed as Twilight cringed away from her, the smaller pony trembling on the verge of tears. "You have a lot to think about, Twilight. I'll leave you be."

The Princess turned away. With a snap of her wing the Royal Guards in the throne room quickly moved to follow their Princess out the main doors, each one awkwardly avoiding eye contact with the sniffling mare in the middle of the room.

Twilight felt tears crawling down her face as the sound of metal-clad hooves echoed through the throne room, and he eyes dropped to the floor as the heavy doors slammed shut.

Twilight sat there for some minutes, hiccuping and sniffling, but eventually pushed herself standing again. She felt terrible, and frankly the last place she wanted to lay down and recover from a harsh reprimand from Princess Celestia was said Princess's throne room.

Turning around, she started heading into the hall that lead to the guest chambers. She stopped, however, when she noticed a door behind Celestia's throne. It wasn't secured and didn't bear any symbols that indicated it was off-limits to palace visitors, yet for the life of her Twilight couldn't ever remember entering it before. Maybe it was a washroom? She could really use a sink to clean herself up right about now.

Trudging to the door, Twilight's horn flashed and turned the knob when she walked into the room the first thing she noted when she walked into the room was that it was so very dark she was about to summon a ball of light at the top of her horn when she tripped over a protruding metal object as she fell she felt her head impact on something then all she knew was black

She opened her eyes realizing that she was no longer in Equestia she got to her hooves and started walking around the mysterious hell blasted landscape that reminded her of pictures she had seen of tartarus suddenly in the horizon twilight saw a portal in the distance galloping towards it she arrived at the portal thinking that it lead back to equestria she stepped into it

walking out of the portal she immediately realized her mistake she was on a overhang on a cliff face realizing that she would never see equestria again she curled up and started to cry

(Peturabos p.o.v.)

The pain was the only thought in my head as I gently flexed my right fingers just enough that they uncramped but not enough that they would let go from the handhold that I had dug in the rock I had no memory from before I had climbed out of that hole and started to climb the cliff. I started to climb up the rest of the cliff but out of the corner of my eye I saw a flash of purple reaching out my right hand I moved closer to it when I had gotten to the overhang I saw what looked to me as a purple horse I was just about to leave it when I heard a sob I realised that this horse was alone like me detaching my left hand from the cliff face I gently nudged the Pony.

Twilights p.o.v.)

I was dreaming of being back in the castle of Canterlot around my entire group of friends they were all congratulating me on seeing through Cadences mask

when suddenly they all started yelling at me how I was the evil one and then suddenly they all started glowing with the elements of harmony on their necks and then Celesta appeared with the element of magic on her head they then shot the elements at me I could feel me turning to stone and then as the stone reached my neck I woke up. I saw a creature that looked like the things Lyra always talked about humans I think "are you alright".

The creature asked me I didn't answer expecting the human to climb away but he didn't instead he reached out his hand and picked me up and then put me on his back I held on to his neck with my hooves

(Peturabos p.o.v.)

With the weird creature on my back I continued to climb up the cliff when I could see the top a rope fell down towards me "GRAB ON WE HAVE BETTER THINGS TO DO THEN HAUL YOUR SORRY ARSE UP". Ignoring the rope I continued to climb " SUIT YOURSELF". Inch by painful inch I haul myself and the pony up to the top when I had hauled myself over the top of the cliff. I could see a massive fortress in front of me silver armoured people pointing elegantly made guns at me the Pony on my shoulder on seeing the guns curled up into the foetal position " who are you and why do you approach Fort Secunia in secret".

I smiled unafraid of the guns pointing at me "is that the name of this place".

I said gesturing to the fort "aye it is and you are trespassing".

I stood up even though I was only young how did I know that I stood just as tall as these fully grown men "who commands this fortress".

I said speaking as if he was unsure to why he was replying to me the leader spoke up " war master Jason Tyrant of Olympia".

I smiled even more "take me to him".

I commanded " of course follow me".

As he started to lead us to the fortress he asked "what are your name's".

to which I replied "Peturabos".

and to my surprise the purple pony on my shoulder replied as well" Twilight Sparkle" .

(Meanwhile in Equestria)

"Twilight I apologize for snapping at you like that but I am under a lot of... Twilight".

Celestia looked around her throne room but her student was nowhere to be seen as Celestia was about to leave she noticed that the door to the mirror to the human world was open feeling a slight tinge of fear Celestia ran into the room upon seeing the mirror was rippling she let out a cry of fear "oh no".

She stopped as she heard a cruel laughter coming out of the mirror "HA YOU MAKE IT TOO EASY TIA REALLY YELLING AT YOUR WHELP LIKE THAT".

Celestia looked at the mirror as a familiar figure appeared in it. The other main six and her sister Luna who came running in when they heard the yelling slide to a halt as they saw it Celestia stood up to her full height "what do you want Tzzeenth haven't you done enough when you corrupted my sister and turned her into Nightmare Moon".

The creature just laughed "I want to thank you Tia thanks to you when the forces of chaos invade the Elements of Harmony cannot do anything about it this world will burn and it’s all your fault".

He laughed again. "See you later Tia oh and say hi to your student when you see her again will you”.

As he walked away he suddenly stopped and turned back "You have brought this upon your self tia"  With a final laugh  tzzentch disappeared.
