Return of Nightmare Moon

Wind walked into the train car to see everyone sitting in their seats with looks of anticipation on their faces.

"Did you get anything out of him?" Comet asked.

"He said that Nightmare Moon is in Las Pegasus. So, that's where we're heading." Wind replied as she took a seat next to Applespice.

She put the black box onto her lap and opened it. Inside was a large cannon that Wind immediately recognized.

"The bass cannon?" Wind asked as she looked at Vinyl.

"Yea. It's weird, this voice, it sounded like Luna's. It told me to find you and give it to you. I know that sounds weird because she's evil again, but, that's why I was so frantic to find you guys." Vinyl replied.

"Actually, that kinda makes sense. Luna wouldn't willingly become Nightmare Moon again. Maybe the nightmare mist forcefully took her over and the real Luna is trapped in the astral plane." Comet said.

Everyone just looked at him with their eyebrows raised.

"What? It's just a theory." He said.

"It's okay, my little cupcake. I believe you." Cherry said.

Comet blushed and gave her an aggravated look.

"Well, it makes about as much sense as anything else. So, we get to Las Pegasus, where do we go from there?" Marigold asked.

"I'm not sure. I was hoping that we would find some kind of clue once we got there." Wind replied.

"Don't worry, Windy. We'll find something. We have to, we're running out of time." Applespice said as he looked out the window.

"I hope you're right." Wind said as she leaned over him and looked out the window.

The moon was dangerously close to the sun now. A few more hours and they would be too late. The train grinded to a stop. They all got off onto the platform and was immediately greeted by a female unicorn that was dressed in a pale green assassin's robe. Wind couldn't see her face, just black under the hood of it. The unicorn pulled something from her belt and chucked it at Applespice. Wind dove in front of it and was hit in the face with a green powder that made her cough and choke. As Wind looked up at the pegasus, the world literally began to melt away before her eyes. She blacked out.
