"Wake up"

King "Rex" Sombra woke up in a worried sweat, while siting up he look around and there was nothing else in the room except for him and Luna, who was still asleep in bed beside him,

"You are  letting your worries get the best of you," Rex whispered to himself, as he got up while trying to not wake up Luna,

King "Rex" Sombra walked out to the balcony, he looked out on his Empire, speaking to himself, "I have created an Empire of Darkness and Love and all for Luna, and yet he still haunts me?"

Meanwhile Queen Luna turn to her side and noticing her husband not there she woke up, "Rex, my Love, where are you?" she stated as she got up. Luna walked to through the room then finally noticing her husband by the balcony.

Luna had remember how when she first time saw him by a balcony. It was the day she found out the he had killed her uncle, and had his head hanging from a balcony, she had told Rex to take it down days later so that it would not scare the children, and so Celestia would have him arrested. Luna had told her sister that their uncle had died, but not how. She had kept many secrets about her husband from Celestia. Luna loved Rex so much that she was willing to forgive his grizzly rise to power. but Luna was still unaware of the more brutal ways that Sombra was ruling the Empire with.

As Queen Luna walked over to her husband King "Rex" Sombra, "What worries you my Beloved King," she said as she wrapped her wings around him,

"Nothing my Beloved Queen," Rex stated as he turn toward her,

"Then why does it feel like your lying to me,"

"No Luna I just have a lot on my mind,"

"Well then let me empty that mind of your," Luna said as she pulled him for a kiss, then as she pulled him away, and back to room for a passion fill night.

As morning arrived Queen Luna got to set the Moon, while still giggling from another passionate night she'd had with her beloved husband. After setting the Moon, Luna when to go check on the mail. There would often be a lot mail from her several children they had. She took the mail and went to sit on her throne, is was a beautiful night sky blue colored throne that Rex had forge for her out of crystal,

"Well, look like General Bold have establish a new Cloud Tower, now he can go back and see his wife Snowdrop and his children," she said to herself, many of her sons had become powerful soldiers for either Canterlot or Griffinstone. While many of her daughters had become either nurses or teachers.

As Queen Luna read the letters, two guards walked up, it was her son Captain Dark Dusk, and his wife Lieutenant Crimson Rose, her son said, "Queen Luna, mother you have a guest,"

Luna then look away from the letters toward her son. He was her second oldest son and captain of her batpony guards, he was black Half Breed Alicorn, with a short purple mane, and a cutie mark of a Shield with a rising Moon in the center and was always wearing his bat-like armor. Meanwhile his wife was a dark red batpony, with a blue mane hanging up in a ponytail, she had a blood rose cutie mark and was always wearing her batpony armor. Luna put down the letters and said, "Who is it, Captain Dark Dusk,"

"It is Princess Celestia, of Canterlot, she is here to talk to about something,"

"Fine then let her in Captain Dark Dusk, she probably here to complain, about the way your father is running the Crystal Empire"

Princess Celestia walked in and said, "Luna I am not here to complain again,"

"Well, this is different,"

"Luna I need help,"

"The Great Princess Celestia need my help,"

"No, more I need the help of your Husband King Sombra,"

"Why do you need my husband help,"

"I need access to his vast network of assassins,"

"I don't know what your talking about,"

"Look I know that he has a vast network of assassins, that take down any threat to his Empire,"

"What of it, it keep the haters from spreading, I mean haven't you noticed that racism is almost nonexistent now,"

"I know but that does not justify murders of so many,"

"HOW DARE YOU!! I thought you weren't here to complain, sister,"

"I am NOT, I need their help to find somepony,"

"NO, now leave,"

After Celestia left the Empire, Luna went back to reading her letters,

"Queen Luna, mother shouldn't we help her,"

"If you want do this mission so badly then go bug your father about having you assigned to it, but leave me out of it,"

"How dare she come complain about how my Beloved runs thing," Luna said to herself, while her son walked to go talk with his Father.
