Republic of the Lunar Chrome.

‘’What are you doing sister?’’ Celestia asked.

Luna grinned ‘’The thing I started doing thousand years ago.’’

‘’This is wrong.’’ Celestia tried to reason with her sister.

‘’Wanting ponies to have freedom? You are the same as you were a thousand years ago.’’  Luna turned back to Chrome.

‘’’How are you doing?’’ She asked.

‘’The first wave failed.’’ Chrome said, without turning away from the screen.

‘’I noticed.’’ Luna sighed.

‘’If you noticed that, you noticed that I engaged plan B.’’ Chrome smiled a little.

‘’When did we get a plan B?’’ Luna raised one of her eyebrows.

‘’About a half an hour ago.’’ Chrome explained.

‘’Have you got any signals from the opposing forces?’’ Luna leaned closer to the screen.

Chrome clicked on one of the icons and a radar popped up ‘’Well, Explorer is as good as dead, he is no threat. Safari is hiding, so far as I know he has got allies too. Firefox is the biggest threat, he has gotten Cadence for an ally. But we are still the most powerful, because of our access to the Void.

‘’What are you talking about?What does my niece have to do with this? ’’ Celestia interrupted.

‘’Don’t tell me you haven’t noticed. There are many forces that want to bring you down Celestis. But there are three that are the most powerful- I and Luna, Firefox and Cadence and Safari and Chrysalis. We all have one thing in common: we have access to human technology. For a shame only I can access internet. But it is only a matter of time until they start using their technology.

‘’Where have I heard those names?’’ Celestia’s mind was trying to remember.

‘’Those are few of the many ponies you have banished throughout the years.’’ Chrome said and suddenly was face to face with Celestia.

‘’How did you...’’Celestia was shocked.

Chrome pointed at the crack ‘’Your thoughts resonate through the Void. And we are right next to it. We can hear you. And you can’t hear us because Vitreus absorbs your abilities.

‘’But why...’’ Celestia started.

Chrome answered ‘’Luna’s armor protects her, but I have a genetic resistance, it's like a talent.’’

Chrome looked at Celestias face and grinned ’’Yes Celestia, I’m not bluffing about the  mind reading.’’

‘’Chrome, what is this?’’ Luna looked at another window that had popped up.

He walked to the laptop and looked at it ‘’Remember what I told you about the nightmare of emptiness?’’

‘’’Yes.What about it?’’ Luna asked.

‘’Honesty is close to being emptied.’’ Chrome bit his lip.

‘’Do we have to worry about it?’’ Luna asked.

‘’Technically no. But if we don’t want more enemies, we should take the crystals out.’’

‘’How much time do we have?’’ Luna started creating a plan in her mind.

‘’About twenty days. Then they will start to change.’’ Chrome gave the answer.

‘’Closest Gate?’’

‘’Operas old one in the Royal Pony Sister castle is still working.’’ Chrome said after looking in a map in the laptop.

‘’What are you talking about? What nightmares?What is happening with Honesty?’’ Celestia interrupted them.

Chrome sighed ‘’You’re not going anywhere so I might as well tell you. Do you know where do the Elements come from?’’

Celestia opened her mouth and closed it again.

‘’Exactly. Let me tell you the story of the Elements. There were five families a long time ago. At that time Equestria was a place where only steel and fire mattered. Steel, fire and pain. These five families wanted this to end. And a falling star gave them the opportunity. It ripped open a Gate. But Void wasn’t the one used to create the Elements.  Usually Gates are opened by trained mages. This time the star ripped open another Gate. A Gate to emptiness- a place with nothing. The families used their abilities to gain temporary control over it. Emptiness absorbed all the darkness in the world. This spell was similar to the one you used on Luna. After they were done they created six crystals out of pure emptiness. Throughout the years they slowly absorbed pure energy of the Families. The sixth element was placed next to one of the five Gates, where they absorbed magical energy. But none were the wielders too long. The Elements absorbed their power too and when it was done the Pure Darkness that had been sealed away in the emptiness took over them. They were filled with all the darkness of the world. If you hadn’t cast that spell on her she would’ve turned anyways. So long as Luna wasn’t there to wield The Three Elements they turned to stone. That's why you didn’t turn too. And now the Elements are about to turn.’’ Chrome explained

Celestia’s jaw had dropped after the first sentences and now she was trying to get it back in place.

‘’To prevent that from happening we should throw the Elements in the Void for some time so they would fill with energy and wouldn’t need to absorb. But this energy would run out anyways and the next wielders would turn to Nightmares.’’  Chrome shook his head.

‘’But...but there have been so many Wielders. How was it possible to defeat so many Nightmares?’’ Celestia tried to think of a way.

Chrome grinned ‘’ Cut their throats, shoot them with a cannon, turn them to ashes with magic, the strength of a Nightmare depends on how powerful the wielder was.

Suddenly a ringing noise came out of nowhere.

Chrome went to the Gate and reached in the Void. When his arm came back he was holding a black rectangular thing.

He put it to his ear ‘’Hello? Yes this is Chrome. No, I can’t give you the laptop back right now. Hey I can’t do stuff so fast. Okay, what do you want exchange for the laptop? Are you high or something, that is simply bucked up. Fine, i’ll do it, but don’t cry like a little girl when you see the dark side of the Revolution.

Chrome took the phone away from his ear and threw it back into the Void ‘’Luna remember Robert?’’

‘’He is coming here?’’ Luna sighed

‘Yes.’’ Chrome sighed too.
