Chapter 1: The Visions

The whole event started on an ordinary typical day in town. It wasn't typical and ordinary today though. Everypony knew Galaxy was MIA, and started to worry. Hell, even I did. Galaxy was my best friend since we met one day at an elementary school. Since then, we became the best of friends. 'The two geniuses of Ponyville' we were called. That was true, in fact. These days Ponyville was lifeless, almost empty. I barely saw anypony on the street, including my own friends. Sunset and myself were walking toward's Mocha's cafe one afternoon, still worried. Mocha heard the door and gave us a small smile. "Anything?" She asked me. I shook my head. Her ears dropped.

"Still no word from Galaxy. I'm starting to worry, and I'm not the worrying type." I admitted. Mocha sighed, and used Twilight's breathing technique to calm her nerves.

"OK. Maybe he's just in another town or something?" Mocha asked questionably. "I mean, if I needed to cool off and clear my head, I'd go to either Fillydelphia or Canterlot. Galaxy always did love Canterlot, didn't he?" She added. I nodded. Sunset stepped up.

"Well, one thing's for sure. Luna and Celestia know something is up. Sadly, they won't tell us." Sunset said. "Neither will Twilight, either." My wife added. Meanwhile, in Canterlot, Luna was taking her mid-day nap. She tossed and turned before entering her dreamworld. She gasped when she saw what she was standing on.

"Where am I?" The Night Princess demanded. She heard a laughter, and her face twisted in seriousness. "I know that laugh. Show yourself, you coward!" She shouted into the void. A small rift opened up, with the laughter again. Soon, a grey pegasus who's eyes and irises were both crimson red, with a black mane and tail, and a red tie around his neck was standing in front of Luna.

"Well, look who's finally here." The pegasus chuckled. "Princess Luna, my favorite princess! Come to see little ol' me again?" He asked. Luna sneered.

"Crowley." She spat with distaste. Crowley was not amused.

"Oh, come on, Lulu! Where's the love?!" He asked. Luna was still sneering. "Anyways, onto business. I'm sure you know why I'm here." The grey pegasus said. Luna nodded.

"Yes. To throw Equestria into a never-ending inferno of Hell and unleash all of your demon subjects." Luna replied. Crowley chuckled.

"You know me so well, Lulu." He laughed. "You know, it's funny how dumb some of you ponies are." Crowley smirked. "Oh, about little ol' Galaxy, he's alive, but, he's not going to last much longer where he is." Crowley chuckled.

"So you've had Galaxy Nebula!" Luna growled. "Why would you take him?" She demanded. Crowley laughed.

"You didn't think I would let Mr. Nebula try and stop me like he did some of my clients, did you?" Crowley inquired. "No. So, what's a demon got to do? I kidnapped Galaxy and brought him to Tartarus with me. He's been keeping me company until I'm strong enough to return, which will be soon, Lulu." The red-eyed demon explained. Luna growled.

"Begone, Crowley! You have no place in our world!" She ordered. The grey pegasus made a growling noise.

"Maybe not yet, princess, but things are about to change!" Crowley shouted before Luna woke with a start. Her heart was thumping hard in her chest as she tried to settle her heart-rate down. It was nighttime, time for her to be out and about.

"I have to find Quillton Brooks and tell him where Galaxy is. Only Galaxy and his friends can fight Crowley." Luna said as she threw off her covers and flew towards my cottage. She knocked on the door three times. No answer. As soon as she began to walk away I opened the door, rubbing my eyes.

"Princess?" I asked. Luna turned to me. "Is everything OK, your highness?" I asked her. Luna shook her head.

"No, everything is not OK, Quillton Brooks." She told me. I cringed.

"I'm sorry, princess, but Galaxy's still MIA at the current moment." I replied. She groaned in defeat.

"That I know. However, I may happen to know where he is." She told me. My heart did a full leap.

"You do?" I asked her. She nodded. "Well, then we better talk tomorrow. I'm heading back to bed, princess. If you like, you are welcome to stay with me and Sunset until whatever it is that's going on is over." I offered. She smiled.

"Thank you, Quillton. I would like that very much." Luna said. Meanwhile, in Crowley's prison, a familiar blue pegasus could be seen, a long chain clasped around his neck. Galaxy's eyes snapped open, and he struggled against the chain.

"Come on, come on!" He growled. The chain didn't budge. "Damn it!" He sighed. "How am I supposed to get out of here?" He asked no one. Galaxy's eyes adjusted to his surroundings, trying to grasp the view of the predicament he was in. "Captured by a red-eyed demon who wants to throw my home into a never ending inferno." He muttered to himself. "I just hope the guys are doing alright without me." He wondered. Then, Galaxy's ears shot up as he heard a noise that sounded like a laugh. He gasped as Crowley took shape and his shadow loomed over the blue pegasus. Crystal woke with a start and panted heavily.

"Just a nightmare, Crys." She told herself. Crystal didn't want to believe it was real. A knock came from her bedroom door and Melody Note walked in, concerned.

"Mom? Is everything OK? I heard you wake up like something startled you." Melody said. Crystal nodded.

"Everything's fine, sweetie. Mom just had a nightmare, is all." The purple pegasus told her daughter. Melody hugged her mother and walked back to her room. Crystal looked at the picture of her and Galaxy at their school's senior prom. "It wasn't a nightmare, was it?" She asked herself. "I need to find Mocha and Quillton." Crystal said as she threw off her covers and headed into town. OK, let me stop you guys right here for a moment to say that this is all true. This whole adventure really did happen to us. Oh, you don't believe me, do you? Well, then sit your impatient flanks down, shut your muzzles, and pay attention to the story. Are we all seated? Good. Now where was I? Ah, yes! Crystal was heading to Mocha's cafe with urgent news. Fortunately for her, Luna had the same piece of news, so she wouldn't have to do a lot of explaining.

Chapter 2: Attack of the Hellhounds

Crystal ran towards Mocha's cafe, closing the door behind her as Mocha walked back from the counter. Crystal checked to make sure she wasn't being followed. I raised an eyebrow. "Um, Crystal? Is everything alright?" I asked her. She shook her head.

"No. It's not. I had a dream last night.......about Galaxy." Crystal sighed. The door jingled and Luna walked in, concerned.

"You may not have to do the explaining, Ms. Harmony. I, too, have had the dream you had last night." Luna explained everything to us, Galaxy being taken captive by a red-eyed demon, what the demon's plans were, and that Galaxy's life could be on the line. I sighed and took a deep breath while Crystal was speechless, curled up in a ball on the floor and whimpering in an incoherent manner where we couldn't understand what she was saying. Mocha helped her up and comforted her. I looked at Princess Luna.

"So why did this demon want our friend, anyway?" I asked her. Luna sighed and sat down in one of the booths.

"He said that he took your friend captive so he wouldn't try to stop him like you all stopped Sombra, The Terror, Nightmare Moon, and Comet Nebula, Galaxy's departed brother." Luna explained. I gasped.

"Wait a second. Princess, can't demons with that kind of power to escape Tartarus resurrect departed souls?" I asked. Luna nodded gravely. "Fuck!" I cursed. I turned to my wife, who stood close to me. "Sunset, rally everypony up that's left in town. Joy, Valerium, Crimson, Novel, whoever. We're going to Tartarus to rescue Galaxy and then we're going to come up with a plan to beat Crowley." I said. Sunset nodded, kissed me gently, and ran to go rally what was left of our friends. Meanwhile, Crowley and Galaxy were chatting. Galaxy struggled against his chains still.

"Won't work, Nebula." The King of Hell said. Galaxy looked straight at him. "Those chains of yours are magic sealed. No matter how hard you try, they won't break. I took precautions before capturing you that day." Crowley explained. Galaxy sneered.

"You knew how big of a threat I was, so you made these chains to hold me and make sure I didn't escape. While I'll admit that is a clever move, my friend will stop you, you demon bastard." He said. Crowley chuckled. "Why?" Galaxy demanded.

"Why?" Crowley repeated. "Why?! I'm bloody Crowley! King of Hell!" He shouted. "You defeated my clients! Now the boss, me, has to mop up the bloody mess!" Crowley added. Galaxy swore that Crowley had an accent to him. "It's like the old saying. 'You want something done right, you have to bloody do it yourself!'" Crowley sighed. "As for your friends, I'll send one of my pals to hold them off." Crowley's eyes glowed a crimson red, and a black mist swirled around both Galaxy and the King of Hell. The mist took the shape of a young unicorn mare, roughly in her twenties with a ginger mane and tail, her coat white as the moon, and her eyes as black as death itself. The mare's black eyes switched to a luminescent blue. Crowley smiled. The mare's cutie mark was the knight chess piece, surrounded in flames. "Abaddon." Crowley smirked. Abaddon turned to Crowley.

"Hello, Crowley." She replied. Galaxy almost went speechless. Her voice was silky and seductive. "You summoned me?" She asked. Crowley nodded.

"Yes, Abaddon, I did. I need you to run a little errand for me. Mr. Nebula's friend will surely be on their way to rescue him. I need you to take care of them." Crowley asked. Abaddon looked at Galaxy and smirked.

"Consider it done." She replied, licking her lips hungrily at Galaxy. Galaxy gulped. Meanwhile, just as we reached Galaxy's cottage, an explosion occurred behind us. I turned around and gasped as a white unicorn mare stood in the crater of the explosion, her eyes black as sin.

"And just who are you?!" Mocha demanded. The unicorn smirked and laughed.

"Who, little ol' me? I am Abaddon, leader and commander of the Knights of Hell itself." Abaddon giggled. I growled.

"She's a demon, just like her boss. Let's take this bitch out and find Galaxy!" I shouted. Mocha agreed and fired a magic blast at Abaddon. Abaddon countered as her horn lit up green, just missing Mocha. "She knows the killing curse!" I shouted. Then, I could've sworn I heard barking. "The hell?" I asked as I put on my 3D glasses. What I saw almost gave me a heart attack when I saw what was standing next to Abbadon. "Holy Mother of Sin!" I exclaimed. Two huge dogs mostly made out of smoke stood on Abaddon's right and left sides. Abaddon smirked.

"Hellhounds." She giggled. "Crowley's pets, well, and mine." Abaddon said. I tossed everypony 3D glasses.

"Guys, put those on! You need them to see the hellhounds." I stated. Mocha put hers on and almost froze in fear. Abaddon giggled.

"Sick 'em, boys." She said in a seductive tone. One hellhound lunged, teeth bared. I tackled it head on, trying to pin it to the ground, kind of hard to do when the damn thing was mostly made out of smoke. I could see at least it's head and body, stating the damn thing was as tall as me, so this would be difficult. Sunset fired magic blasts at Abaddon as I wrestled the hellhound. I heard a ripping noise and saw the hound had gotten a chuck of my jacket.

"Oh come on! I just had this jacket fixed after the whole shadow Sombra encounter!" I groaned as I managed to get the hound in a headlock, depriving it's need for air. Big mistake, I realized, but too little, too late. The hound broke free and had me pinned on the ground, jaw snapping. I managed to keep the hound's jaw from my muzzle, but I knew my forelegs would give out soon. Sunset fired a blast at the hound and it yelped as it took a hard landing. "Thanks, dearie." I said to my wife. She smiled and continued fighting Abaddon. Crystal was trying not to get eaten by another hound. "Ah fuck, I forgot there was two of them." I groaned. The second hound had Crystal up a tree, whimpering and yelping every time the hound's jaw snapped. Mocha raced up beside me.

"Where's Galaxy when you need him?!" She asked as she fired a magic blast at hound number two. The hound took the hit and yelped.

"Good question." I replied, yelping as Abaddon's magic blast almost hit me. "That was close!" I shouted. "Valerium, get Crystal!" I said. The half dragon pony nodded and tackled the other hellhound viciously. Mocha's eyes were literal hearts when she stared at him.

"That's my husband." She said, swooning. I grabbed her and slapped her back to reality. "Why! What! Who!" She exclaimed, shaking her head. "Huh? What? What'd I miss?" She asked. I sighed. She then saw hellhound number one's back legs compress. "Uh....oh." She gulped as it lunged for her, pinning her and digging it's claws into her left foreleg. Mocha cried out in pain.

"Mocha!!!" Valerium shouted, tackling the hound that was pinning his wife. Abaddon sneered.

"Hounds, to me!" She ordered. The hounds fell back and the three of them dissolved into smoke. The rest of us ran over to Mocha, who's left foreleg was bleeding badly. Valerium held her as Crimson and Novel dialed an ambulance. I looked at the smoldering crater Abaddon appeared in.

"Looks like shit just got real." I said before helping Valerium with Mocha. I just hoped Galaxy was doing better than we were.

Chapter 3: The Rescue Plan

OK, scratch that last part. I was wrong. Galaxy was not doing better than us. He was, in fact, doing the exact opposite. Crowley had him tied to an interrogation chair, hoping to get some useful information on how he could escape Tartarus. Galaxy sneered and the King of Hell. "You think these chains can hold me, Crowley?" The blue pegasus asked. Crowley snapped and slapped the left side of Galaxy's face. Galaxy, being the stallion he was, took the hit. "When my wife and friends rescue me, you're finished, you bastard." He promised. Crowley made a scared face, but mockingly.

"Oh, I'm so scared." Crowley taunted. "Blah blah blah. Abaddon informed me one of my hounds managed to injure that white unicorn friend of yours. Sadly, it wasn't a fatal injury, but, eh, enough to slow them down." Crowley shrugged. Galaxy gasped.

"Mocha?" Galaxy asked himself. He shook his head, not wanting to believe it. Crowley caught a glimpse of Galaxy's expression and smirked. He then pulled out what seemed to be a head bracket with needles all around the side. Galaxy's heart almost skipped a beat.

"Now then, let's see if we can't make you talk." The King of Hell said as he placed the head bracket around Galaxy's head and began twisting a needle into his head. Galaxy let out a shout of pain. OK, you know what? I'm sorry, I just can't describe what Crowley is doing to my best friend. Let's skip over to the next scene, shall we? At Mocha's Cafe, Mocha's left foreleg was bandaged up good. Nurse Redheart had told us that Mocha's leg was injured very badly, along with a multitude of internal injuries. Mocha was in no shape to fight now. I growled silently.

"It's not your fault, Quill." Mocha said. "I didn't even see the other hound coming." She admitted. Crystal was steadily wrapping another bandage around her leg. Good thing Galaxy is married to a nurse. I thought to myself. Then, I just realized how I had thought it and almost had a heart-attack. Quill! Come on, man! I told the irrational part of my brain. Sunset sighed and sat down in a booth.

"That Abaddon was nothing like all the other foes we've fought. Twilight even had a tough time just facing Starlight and Tirek." She said. I sat next to my wife and put my right foreleg around her as she rested her head on my shoulder. "Princess, is there any way that we can stop Crowley and free Galaxy?" Sunset asked. The Night Princess shook her head. Crystal was quiet the whole time, until she finally snapped.

"That's it. I don't know about any of you, but I'm not going to sit around while this demon tortures my Galaxy." Crystal stated. "Are you all really just going to sit here and give up? Think about everything Galaxy's done for us. He's been there for us in times of need, he went on a crazy and might I say very dangerous mission, which is what my husband does, to rescue Mocha." She added. Valerium stood up as well.

"Crystal's right. I'll be honest here. At first, I didn't know whether or not I could call Galaxy my friend. But, after the rescue mission me and him were on with everypony to rescue Mochy, I found I could be friends with him. I'm also not going to sit around and wait while Crowley does whatever to him." He said. I nodded as well.

"But, how will we rescue him?" Novel asked. "I mean, not that it's impossible, it's just this might end in Crowley escapes Tartarus." He told us. Crimson stood up, determined. "Crimsy?" Her coltfriend asked in confusion.

"I'll bring him back." She told us. I was speechless. Novel stood up, worried.

"Crim, what'll happen if you don't make it back?" He asked, scared now. Crimson looked at her coltfriend straight in the eyes.

"He's my brother. I owe it to him for being there for me all this time. Galaxy was the one pony I could look up to, and hope to become one day. He's my big brother, and he always will be. I don't know what it is, but I heard a prophecy that one of us would make the ultimate sacrifice, I didn't know who, until I read the line below it. It was referring to me." Crimson said, almost sounding upset. She straightened herself. "But, I have to do what I have to do. I love you, Novel." She said as she kissed her coltfriend's cheeck gently and was about to fly off. Crystal stood up.

"Crimson, I'm coming with you." She said. Crimson shook her head.

"No, Crystal, I don't want Galaxy to lose you as well." She told the purple pegasus. Crystal sighed.

"Galaxy is my husband, I need to be there for him. It's not just you he's been there for. He's been there for me in times of need as well. We both owe that to him." She said. Crimson sighed and nodded.

"Then let's go." She decided as the two pegasai flew off to find a way to Tartarus. Princess Luna looked at the rest of us.

"So what do we do now, your highness?" Joy asked. Luna sighed.

"All we can do now is wait and hope for their return with Galaxy. Then, we formulate a plan to take down Crowley." She said. We all nodded. Meanwhile, Crimson and Crystal had found the entrance to Tartarus, and were a little hesitant to jump in. Crimson gulped.

"You sure Galaxy's going to be alright?" Crystal asked Crimson. "I mean, who knows what that bastard has done to my husband over the past month and a half." She added. Crimson nodded.

"Only way to be sure is to find Galaxy and rescue him." Crimson said. "From there, we can formulate a plan to keep Crowley locked up." She added. The purple pegasus nodded.

"Right. Here goes nothing." Crystal gulped. Crimson looked at her, then nodded.

"GERONIMO!!!!!!!!!" The two pegasai both shouted as they plunged into the entrance, wondering what they'd find when they arrived to their destination.

Chapter 4: Crimson's Sacrifice

After what seemed like forever of plummeting down a dark hole, Crimson and Crystal finally hit solid ground. Crystal stood up and dusted herself off. She was confused. "This is Tartarus?" She asked. Crimson looked around. The sky was completely black with stars in the sky, the water a blood red color, and the clouds blood red. Aside from that, the place seemed exactly like Ponyville.

"Maybe we're seeing in a different way than other ponies. Heaven, Hell, and Tartarus are different to everypony. To us, it's a dark version of town. Now, if you were Crowley and you were holding Galaxy, where would you be?" Crimson asked. Soon, her eyes fell upon a dark version of Canterlot Castle. Crystal groaned.

"Oh, you have got to be fucking kidding me. That's the most conspicuous place to hold somepony captive in the history of holding somepony captive!" She said, sighing. Crimson studied the palace.

"Maybe that's Crowley's home here? Then again, I could be guessing." She shrugged. "Let's go get Galaxy." She said. Crystal nodded and the two headed towards the palace. Meanwhile, inside the pal....oh, oh god. I'm sorry, I can't even describe how Galaxy looks right now. I will try my best though. Thankfully, I don't have to get graphic because the needles were out of his head. He was still tied to the chair, however somewhat unconscious. Crowley was growling silently as Abaddon walked in.

"He wouldn't co-operate, would he?" She asked. Crowley shook his head.

"His mind, sadly, is more protected than I thought. It'd take days to crack into that mind of his! How did his brother, Comet, manage it?" He sighed. "Wait. I've got it. Possession." Crowley smirked, but his smile faded when he saw Galaxy's warding tattoo on his left foreleg. "Bollocks!" Crowley hissed. Suddenly, his intercom went off. "Crowley." He replied.

"Uh, sir, hate to interrupt, but, uh..." A demon's voice replied. Crowley grew impatient.

"Spit. It. Out!" He shouted. The demon's voice yelped.

"There's two intruders in the...." He replied before his voice got cut off. Abaddon sneered. Crowley looked at Galaxy, then Abaddon.

"Watch him. I'll go deal with these intruders." He ordered. Abaddon nodded and looked at Galaxy, once again licking her lips. Meanwhile, in the main hall, Crystal and Crimson were fighting demons with special blades Luna had made them before they left. Crimson plunged her blade into another demon and she crumpled to the floor. Crystal yelped as another demon almost took her head off. Crimson stabbed that one as well.

"You don't fight much, do you?" Crimson asked. Crystal shook her head in reply. Soon, they heard a slow clapping sound. It was Crowley, descending the stairwell. Crimson and Crystal sneered.

"Well. Well. Well." Crowley chuckled. "You finally found little ol' me. As for Galaxy? Abaddon is watching him so I can deal with you two." He told them. Crystal growled.

"Let my husband go, you bastard!" She yelled. Crowley chuckled again.

"You're in no position to make demands, little Ms. Harmony." He said. Crystal gasped. "Oh yes, I know you. Same goes for Ms. Ink. Now, you two have two options. Either you surrender, and drop your blades, or, I kill you then kill Galaxy." Crowley told them. Crimson sneered.

"Crystal, go get Galaxy. I'll hold off this demon bastard." She said. Crystal looked at Crimson, then Crowley, who sighed.

"But Crimsy, you'll be killed!" She protested. "No, I'm staying to...." She said before Crimson cut her off.

"Go before I kill you myself, Crys! Galaxy needs you! Go!" She told her. Crystal yelped and flew off, hoping Crowley wouldn't follow her. He didn't. He stood in front of Crimson, ready to fight her.

Pull it together, Crystal. You'll find him. Crystal told herself. She banged open the door to Crowley's throne, and sure enough there was her husband with Abbadon standing over him. Crystal growled. "Abaddon." She sneered. Abaddon chuckled.

"Crystal Harmony. I've been looking forward to seeing you again." She smirked. Crystal heard barking, and put on her 3D glasses. A large hellhound was standing right next to Abaddon, ready to kill. Before the hound could react, Crystal charged, plunging her blade deep into the hellhound, causing it to fall limp and lifeless. Abaddon shrieked as Crystal swung her blade near her head, just missing her. "You little bitch! Crowley will have my head for that!" Abaddon screamed. Crystal closed her eyes and focused. Abaddon lunged, enraged. All Crystal heard was a swiping noise and a splat on the ground. When she opened her eyes, there was Abaddon's body, limp and headless, her head a few inches from the body. She untied Galaxy and gave him a good wake up jolt.

"Huh! What! Why!" Galaxy slapped himself back to reality. He gasped. "Crys?!" He exclaimed. Crystal nodded, ecstatic with joy, hugging her husband. "Where are the others?" He asked.

"Back home, with Melody. Me and Crimson came to..." Crystal gasped. "Crimson! Come on!" She exclaimed. Galaxy yelped as Crystal dragged him back to the main hall. She gasped. Crowley didn't even have a scratch on him, where as Crimson was bruised and bloody. She looked at Galaxy and Crystal and mouthed one word. Go. Galaxy watched helplessly as Crowley's blade plunged into his sister's body.

"Crimson?! Crimson!!!!!!!" Galaxy yelled in deep pain as he flew to his sister, holding her in his hooves. Crystal gasped in horror. Crimson looked at Galaxy one last time before her breath became ragged. "Crimson, no. Stay with me, sis." Galaxy pleaded. Crimson chuckled lightly.

"I....never got to tell you.....how much I looked up to you." She coughed. She looked up into her brother's pleading eyes. "Galaxy. Go." She said before her eyes closed and her heart stopped completely. Galaxy wept as he hugged his sister in his hooves. She was gone, gone for good. Crystal put her hoof on her husband's shoulder. Galaxy looked at Crowley, who was smiling.

"You'll pay for this, you demon bastard." He promised. Galaxy picked Crimson up as he and Crystal flew back to the entrance to Ponyville, with Crowley's laughs of victory echoing. Crimson laid lifeless and limp in Galaxy's hooves. She had sacrificed herself to save her brother, and now, Galaxy was more determined than ever to stop Crowley for good. Galaxy let a tear fall down his cheek as he mourned the loss of his little sister, Crimson Ink. Meanwhile, in the Everfree Forest, at the ruins of the old castle, the ground shifted. Suddenly, Comet Nebula rose up from the ground, his eyes glowing a crimson red. He smelled the air.

"Mmm, it's good to be back." He chuckled. He walked over to a pool of water and opened his mouth. Two sharp fangs descended from his top row of teeth. "Albeit a vampire, no less." He realized. "I'll have to thank Mochy for giving me this new lease on life." He smirked as he flew off to bide his time in his old castle.

Chapter 5: Lucifer's Arrival

Once Galaxy and Crystal got back, we were all happy to see Galaxy again, until we saw the mood he was in, and who he was carrying in his hooves. Mocha's left foreleg was completely healed now, and she was shocked when she saw the dead body of Crimson in Galaxy's hooves. Luna walked up to Galaxy a few hours later, stricken with sorrow. "Galaxy, I'm.....sorry that you lost your sister." She said. Galaxy sighed.

"She sacrificed herself, so Crystal could come and rescue me. When we got back, I was helpless to save her. I could've saved her, and now her death is on me." He said. I walked up.

"Hey, whoa, Galaxy. No one said that Crimson's death was your fault. She sacrificed herself so we could have you back. You're our leader, pal. We need you." I told him. Galaxy didn't reply.

"Yeah, well, Novel won't even talk to me because I didn't save Crimson." He told me. I sat down next to him. Luna left for us to talk alone.

"Yeah, well, he doesn't understand why Crimson did what she did. She did it to save you. I may not know a lot about family, but I do know that what she did, it showed that she truly cared about you, Galaxy." I said. "Hell, we all do to some degree." I added. Sunset sat down on the other end of the booth.

"Galaxy, Crimson cared enough to go rescue you. If it was me, I wouldn't even want to be rescued." She said before realizing what she just said. "OK, bad example, but you get my point. Crimson loved you, and she'll always be with us in our hearts." Sunset told him. Crystal was sitting with Melody, who was also upset. Meanwhile, Crowley was busy looking at the dead remains of his servant, Abaddon.

"Bollocks." He sighed. "She was so good at her job, too. Time to get serious, I suppose." Crowley shrugged. Soon, a wall of flames appeared behind Crowley, a shape taking place. Crowley's eyes went wide. "Well, this is an unexpected turn. Hello, Lucifer." Crowley said in amazement. Lucifer stepped out of the flames, with a dark grey coat like Crowley, a brown main and tail, green eyes, and his cutie mark was a cage surrounded in flames. He was an earth pony as well. Lucifer smiled.

"Hello, Crowley." He said. Crowley stepped back to allow Lucifer to step forward. Crowley tugged at his collar.

"I...wasn't expecting you." The King of Hell said. Lucifer shrugged.

"I heard of Abaddon's passing. Even the King of Hell should know I trained the Knights of Hell personally. So, I came to do the job myself. Now then, Crowley, what's your plan for escaping this place you've called your home?" Lucifer asked, looking around. The King of Hell straightened.

"Simple. Take out Mr. Nebula and his pals, whom are the line of defense for Princess Luna, then take out the princesses that exiled me to this god-forsaken place." Crowley explained. Lucifer pondered.

"Hmm. Interesting. A good plan, if you have a death wish." He stated. Crowley almost choked.

"Beg pardon?" Crowley laughed. "Darling, I'm the King of Hell. I know how to fight a band of little ponies and murder the poor saps." He replied. Lucifer looked Crowley straight in the eye.

"If you want your plan to be successful, Crowley, then you don't start by eliminating Mr. Nebula, you possess him and use him to break through Canterlot's defenses. Celestia and Luna will be helpless to attack, and then you summon me and I murder them my way." Lucifer stated. Crowley gulped and chuckled nervously.

"Of course. Don't know what I was bloody thinking." He admitted, but was lying at the same time. Meanwhile, Mocha was doing her best to keep Galaxy calm, but sadly nothing was working. We tried everything, even a tickle torture. That was Crystal's idea, not mine, so don't ask. Suddenly, we heard a noise outside. As the rest of us went to go investigate, Lucifer creeped up behind Galaxy and put his hoof over his muzzle. Galaxy tried to scream, but couldn't.

"Now then, Mr. Nebula, you're coming with me. Crowley has a plan for you, one your involved in." He chuckled before he dragged Galaxy through shadows back to Tartarus. I walked back inside, gasping.

"Uh, guys?!" I exclaimed. Crystal gasped in horror, as did Mocha and Sunset.

"Galaxy?" Crystal asked, looking around frantically. "Galaxy?! Galaxy!!!!" She was very frantic, so frantic in a way I've never seen her in. "Where the hell is my husband?!" She asked, rather scared. Mocha comforted her.

"We'll find him, Crystal. I promise. No pony gets left behind." She promised. Crystal nodded, and calmed down. Valerium stepped up, along with Luna.

"I think I have an idea where Galaxy might be. Crowley might not yet be done with your husband, Ms. Harmony. If I was Crowley, I would use Galaxy to break into Canterlot castle, where the entrance to Tartarus resides." She guessed. I was confused.

"Use Galaxy how?" I raised an eyebrow. Then, it hit me like a very painful bee sting. "He's going to possess Galaxy and march into Canterlot to free his body, and then dump Galaxy's for his own and Bob's your uncle, Crowley is back in business!" I realized. Mocha gasped.

"We've got to stop him!" Soul shouted. Mocha held her back from the door.

"Surely there will be hounds with him." Sunset told me. I nodded.

"Oh, you're right on that one, dearie. We need a special weapon to kill Crowley with, but what?" I asked, thinking. Luna rubbed her foreleg like she knew something. "Princess, what is it?" I asked her. She sighed.

"I know of one weapon that matches your description, and you may not like it." She said. We all listened. "The First Blade." She told us, causing all of us, including me, to gasp in complete shock. Luna nodded, and told us the story.

Chapter 6: The First Blade

"I'm sorry, Princess. The First what?" I asked in shock. Luna nodded. Everyone was sitting down in booths now. Sunset next to me, Crystal and Mocha in on booth with Valerium on the other side, Joy and Soul in another, Paradise and breeze in the one behind them, along with me and Sunset in front. Luna sighed.

"The First Blade. It's a blade fashioned to destroy anything evil, including demons. However, the blade is useless without a mark known as the Mark of Cain." She explained. Suddenly, my brain clicked, causing me to gasp.

"The Mark of Cain?!" I exclaimed. Luna nodded. Everypony looked at me, confused. I straightened my jacket's collar and cleared my throat. "The Mark of Cain is said to be a holy object, and it can only be given by somepony who is worthy. try to strike down said pony, the Mark obliterates you completely." I explained. Mocha gulped.

"So, If one of us had the Mark, we'd be invincible?" She asked. I shook my head.

"No, you can still be killed if you're not paying attention. Like Luna said, without the Mark, the blade is useless. Once somepony holds the blade, they feel a tremendous surge of power, and strength. Basically, nothing can stop them. Now, we need that blade to kill Crowley, assuming he hasn't possessed Galaxy yet." I hoped. Unfortunately, Crowley was just about to possess our friend. Galaxy was tied to a chair once again, with Lucifer smirking.

"Are you ready, Crowley?" He asked. The King of Hell nodded. Galaxy gulped as red smoke emerged from Crowley's mouth and surged into his own. Galaxy coughed as his eyes turned a blood red, his irises red as well. Lucifer gulped. "Crowley, is that you?" He asked. Galaxy looked at him.

"Yes, it is." He smirked. "Hmm, odd. I seem to have retained Nebula's voice. Ah, well. It'll fool the guards even better." He chuckled. "Now, help me out of these shackles. I can't even move with them binding me." He snapped. Lucifer nodded. Soon, Crowley, who was in my friend's body, was free. OK, you know what? I'm just going to stick with Galaxy's name so there's no confusion, alright? Are we all settled? Good. Now, let us continue. Late that night, there were a few royal guards patrolling the streets of Ponyville. Anypony caught without a note from the princess saying they could be out at night would be sent to the palace for questioning. Celestia made it as a security measure so no new villains could do any harm. Galaxy and Lucifer managed to sweep past all of them.

"The palace is just this way. Does the train run late at night?" Lucifer asked. Galaxy nodded.

"Yes. I've put Galaxy's subconscious self to sleep so I can access his memories. He has no clue I'm in here." Galaxy smirked. Meanwhile, a few of us, Mocha, Sunset, Crystal, Valerium, Luna, and myself, were searching for the First Blade.

"Princess, are you sure you know where it is?" Val asked. Luna nodded.

"I was the pony who hid it long ago. Only I know it's exact location." She said. Mocha tried guessing.

"Is it Dragon's Cove, by any chance?" She asked. Me and Luna both looked shocked, her more than myself.

"How did you know that?!" Luna gasped. Mocha smiled.

"Just a hunch." She s'queed. Luna rolled her eyes and trugded on, the rest of us following behind here, with Paradise and Breeze.

"Do you think Safari is still there?" Breeze asked Paradise, who was not amused.

"Breezy, you need to get over him." She said. Breeze sighed.

"Oh, you're right. We'll just end up fighting over him again." She admitted. Soon, we reached Dragon's Cove. There was just one minor setback. Dragons were running loose everywhere. A pegasus shot by us with his tail on fire, hooping and hollering his lungs out. I cringed as the poor sap whacked himself right into an unsuspecting tree. I walked up to Luna.

"So, where's the Blade, exactly?" I asked. She pointed straight ahead, towards the Dragon's Cave. My heart did a leap. "There?! Are you out of your bloody mind!" I exclaimed. Last time we came here, we nearly all died trying to get the Thaumaturgy Gemstone. Luna was serious.

"It was the only place Crowley could not find it. Let us not linger and press on. We are close to our destination." Luna explained. crystal gulped. She wasn't with us the last time we were here, so to her, this adventure was spooky.

"If it saves my Gal-Gal, then I'm in." She said. I almost threw up. Gal-Gal? I asked myself. Apparently Crystal had a nickname for Galaxy as well, and it wasn't just Peaches, either. We trundled on, hoping nothing would block our path. Unfortunately, somepony did. It was Safari, looking older than last we met him. He couldn't believe his eyes when he saw us.

"What in the name of all sanity are you doing back here?!" He demanded as he trotted up. "Do you not see all the dragons loose!" He asked us. Breeze put a hoof over his muzzle.

"Safari, I'm only saying this once." She said seriously. Safari nodded. "We came here to get a little thing called 'The First Blade'. Princess Luna here thinks it might help defeat a red eyed demon named Crowley. Making sense so far?" She asked. Safari nodded again. "Now, we need to go into the cave to retrieve it, and you are not stopping us from saving our friend and killing Crowley, got it?" Breeze threatened. Safari nodded once more and took off running scared.

"Huh. You know, in my head, I was expecting a completely different reaction from him." I admitted. Paradise agreed. Mocha looked ahead. We were at the ledge we came to last time to get across. "Alright, who's carrying who? Normally, Galaxy would carry me, but he's not here, so...." I stated. Crystal lifted me up by my jacket. "Hey, watch my jacket, Crystal!" I told her. She blushed nervously. I was basically the only earth pony here. Everyone else could fly, and Mocha and my wife both knew teleportation spells. Soon we were across, staring right into the Cave's mouth.

"Once more unto the breach." Mocha gulped. I nodded. Valerium flew close to Mocha, and we all stayed close as we all trotted in to the cave, unaware what we would find.

Chapter 7: Finding Cain

Once inside the cave, I gasped. There, perched on a pillar of stone, was the First Blade. It was a bone carved into the shape of a blade. I looked around. The Blade was straight ahead. "No way could it be that easy." Crystal said. Just as she stepped on a stone, it sunk, causing a giant axe to swing from the ceiling. "Eek!" Crystal yelped as the axe swung by, just missing her. I looked at her as she curled into a ball by my hoof.

"You were saying?" I raised my eyebrow. She chuckled nervously. I put on my normal glasses and grabbed some dust, blowing it into the air, revealing spike traps, giant crushers, and pendulums. "OK, Princess, you certainly took precautions." I whistled. Luna nodded.

"It was the only way to make sure the Blade was safe." She said, pointing down to the ground below us. Below were skeletons of ponies older than us, who had all failed retrieving the blade. I cringed.

"Fuck. A lot of ponies tried, huh?" I asked. Luna nodded just as Mocha walked up.

"OK, so how do we get ol' bone breath over there?" She asked. "I mean, a pegasus might be able to do the trick, but the only one fast enough would've been Galaxy." She said. I nodded. Crystal hid behind Luna. She wasn't moving an inch. Mocha put a hoof on Crystal's shoulder.

"OK, now how do we do this?" I asked. Then I realized Paradise and Breeze were with us. I turned to them. "Girls, do you think you two can get the Blade?" I asked. Both smiled.

"Sure thing!" They cheered in unison, taking off. The way they dodged the obstacles with such grace, it was unbelievable. Soon, the two pegasai handed me the Blade.

"Excellent work, dearies." I said to them. Breeze and Paradise both blushed. "Right, now all we need is the Mark, and then it's bye bye Crowley!" I said. That's when I heard a voice that made my heart stop.

"Excellent work, Quillton." The voice said, Out of the shadows came Galaxy, and another pony beside him I didn't know. I was about to literally hug Galaxy, but it was his eyes that made me stop in my tracks. Instead of brown, they were blood red, along with his irises. I gulped, as did Crystal, Sunset, and Mocha. Valerium and Luna stood their ground.

"I must thank you for getting ol' bone breath. There's no way I could've gotten it myself. I'm still getting used to Mr. Nebula's body, after all." Galaxy stated. That's what made Luna and Crystal both gasp.

"Crowley!" They shouted in unison. Galaxy smirked.

"Well, took you long enough. The eyes should've been a dead giveaway." He chuckled. "Lucifer, retrieve the Blade." Galaxy said. I gasped.

"Lucifer...." I said in awe. "God's first fallen Angel, soon to be known as Satan or The Devil." I gulped. Lucifer smirked.

"Guilty as charged." He laughed. "Now, hand over the Blade, and we can make things easier." He said. Sunset's horn lit up.

"Not this time." She said as a magic bubble formed around our group. "Everypony hold on!" She shouted as the bubble exploded, leaving nothing but a crater where all of us were standing. Galaxy growled.

"Well, seems the orange one knows teleportation spells." He guessed. "And they have the bloody Blade!" He realized. Suddenly, Galaxy gasped as he felt himself teleported to the basement of his cottage, where me, Mocha, Crystal, Sunset, and Valerium were standing. "What the?!" He exclaimed, trying to move. However, Sunset had spray-painted a devil's trap on the floor, leaving Galaxy trapped. "You think this can hold me?" Galaxy chuckled. I sneered at him.

"Crowley, I'm only saying this once. Release me friend, or you will pay." I threatened. Galaxy chuckled.

"How? Kill me, kill Galaxy, remember?" He asked. I nodded as I knew that fact.

"That's why we prepared for this." I stated, bringing out a book that Crowley knew all too well.

"How did you...." He gasped in awe. The book in question.....was The Dark Prognosticus. However, Sunset used a spell on it to where it followed the commands of the owner, aka, me. Smart, huh? I turned to a page with a spell for an exorcism. I read the text, chanting in Latin.

"Exorcizamus Te, Omnis Immundus Spiritus." I began chanting. Galaxy twitched a little as I did, getting rather uncomfortable. "Omnis Satanica Potestas. Omnis Incursio Infernaiis Adversarii. Omnis Iegio, Omnis Congregatio, Et Secta Diaboiica." I continued. Galaxy twitched even more. Crystal and Mocha watched. "Ergo, Draco Maledicte. Ecciesiam Tuam Securi Tibi, Facias Iibertate Servire. Te Rogamus, Audi Nos." I finished, slamming the book shut. "Adios, bitch." I said to Crowley as red smoke come out of Galaxy's mouth and back to Tartarus, Galaxy's eyes reverted to brown and he gasped, coughing.

"What the?" He asked, looking around. "Oh. Oh! What is that taste in my mouth? Bleh!" He groaned. Crystal giggled.

"He's back." She smiled, hugging her husband. Galaxy hugged Crystal back. Galaxy coughed again.

"OK, seriously, Crowley left something bad in my mouth." He groaned. "Tastes like....."Galaxy's eyes narrowed in fear. Then, he spat and coughed. "Pears! Bleh! Don't let me eat pears! I hate pears! Oh, damn it, Crowley! I didn't want to gain control of myself again and taste pears in my mouth!" Galaxy coughed. He noticed the Blade in my hooves. "We got the First Blade? Good." He said.

"Now all we need is the Mark of Cain, and somepony to kill Crowley." I said. Galaxy took the Blade from me. "Galaxy?" I asked, shocked. Galaxy stared at us all seriously, a look of hatred in his eye. I could see it. Anger was burning in his eyes. Dangerous and boiling. There have only been two times I have seen my best friend like this. Once when we were little when he stood up for me, and recently about two months ago when he confronted his brother, Comet. Crystal looked worried, as did Mocha, Valerium, and Sunset along with me and Luna. Soul, Joy, Paradise, and Breeze were all out looking for Cain. If they found him, they'd call us. Suddenly, my phone buzzed. "Hello?" I answered. Joy's voice came from the recieving end, telling me they had found Cain and he was waiting for us. I nodded and out my phone away.

"Joy?" Mocha asked. I nodded. Mocha stood determined. "Alright everypony. That's our cue, Let's move!" She ordered. We all nodded and raced towards Cain's hide out, unaware Crowley was just stepping through the portal from Tartarus into our world.

Chapter 8: The Final Battle/Epilogue

As we approached Cain's hideout, we all gasped as we walked inside. It was a decent sized cottage, but bigger on the inside slightly. An older pony with a grey mane, tail, and small hint of a beard and mustache on his face was organizing books. He was dark grey with brown eyes, and his cutie mark was the First Blade. He also had a mark on his right foreleg. It was shaped like a seven, with two dashes on the side. The pony turned to us and nearly jumped. "Not polite to sneak up on an older stallion like me." He said. I stepped forward.

"Are you Cain?" I asked him. He nodded. "Cain, we need..." I started before he cut me off.

"I know what you need, Quillton Brooks." He said. I gasped. "Yes. I know your name, and your's, Galaxy, and Crystal's, Mocha's, Sunset's, I know all of you." He told us. "You're Equestria's protectors, right?" He asked. Galaxy nodded, stepping forward.

"Cain. We have the First Blade, and we're hoping it can kill Crowley." He explained. "But I need your mark to use it. Crowley is threatening Equestria and plans to rule it with an iron hoof. Cain, please, will you give me your mark so that I can use the Blade?" Galaxy asked. I should've stopped him there, but Galaxy lost Crimson to Crowley. I understood his warrant for revenge. Cain pondered. He finally sighed.

"Galaxy." He said in a serious tone, looking at him dead in the eye. The rest of us stepped back. "I can give you the Mark, if that's what you need. I must warn you, with the Mark comes a great burden. It can only be passed to someone worthy, and I see the bravery inside you. Yes, I will give you my mark to use the Blade. I just require one thing from you." He said. Galaxy swallowed.

"Anything." Galaxy replied. Cain smirked.

"Kick Crowley's ass for me." He chuckled. Galaxy chuckled as well and held out his hoof. Cain grabbed it with his and the Mark of Cain surged onto Galaxy's foreleg. "The Blade will now work. I hope you know what you're doing." He said. Galaxy nodded.

"Me too." He admitted. He then turned to us. "Alright gang, let's go kill ourselves a demon." Galaxy told us. We charged after him, back to Equestria, only to find the place overrun with demons. "Crowley." Galaxy growled. He looked at Canterlot Palace, and sneered. "He's there. Alright, Quill, Crystal, Sunset, you're with me. Mocha, Valerium, Soul, Joy, Paradise, and Breeze, you guys get the civilians to safety." He told us. We nodded. "Let's move!" Galaxy called as me, Sunset, and Crystal raced after him to Canterlot Palace, when Crowley was smuggly sitting in Celestia's chair, with Celestia on the ground.

"You will not get away with this, Crowley." The Sun Princess sneered, Crowley chuckled.

"Oh? I'm sorry, who's in your chair right now, Tia?" He asked. "Oh that's right. Me!" Crowley snapped at her, causing her to cringe. Crowley laughed, Lucifer next to him. "Lucifer, be a dear and take Celestia to the dungeons below." Crowley said. Just as Lucifer started moving, the main door to the throne room burst open with me, Galaxy, Sunset, and Crystal standing outside, all battle-ready. "Bollocks." Crowley sighed. "Hellhounds!" He called. I gulped.

"Oh fuck, not those again." I said as I put on my glasses, revealing not one, not two, but five huge hellhounds standing in our way, jaws snapping and barking like crazy. "OK, guys? There's five hounds between us and Crowley. We want him, we gotta take care of the hounds first." I said. Galaxy charged for the nearest hound, but he forgot he couldn't see it. "Right!" I shouted. Galaxy slashed and heard a yelp as hound number one went down immediately. I tossed him a pair of glasses and he put them on, revealing the other four hounds.

"Alright, bitches, bring it on!" Galaxy shouted as he charged, taking down hounds number two and three with two painful yelps from the hounds. Hounds four and five charged us, Sunset firing a blast at hound four. Crystal yelped as hound five nearly slashed her. She took off to the ceiling and flew back down in a dive attack, jamming her blade right in hound five's chest. Hound four was still on the battlefield, jaw snapping furiously. It growled at Galaxy, and it's back legs compressed. Crowley and Lucifer sat forward with anticipation. Lucky for the hound, Galaxy 's back was facing it. The hound lunged. Galaxy's ear twitched and jammed the First Blade right into the hound's chest, not even looking where he aimed. Mine, Crystal's, Sunset's Crowley's, and Lucifer's jaws all dropped. The hound crumpled to the floor, lifeless.

"How'd he bloody do that!!" Crowley demanded. "No! No no! Rematch! Cheater!" Crowley protested. Apparently the hounds were a test. Galaxy turned to Crowley.

"Crowley!" He called to him, showing him the Blade. "You killed my sister. Now?" Galaxy chuckled, the brown draining out of his eyes until they turned as black as Abaddon's. Crowley gasped, Galaxy's mark burning red. "You know who I am, Crowley?" Galaxy asked. Crowley couldn't look at Galaxy. Galaxy flew so fast that he was a blur. Soon, Crowley was pinned against the wall, helpless to fight back. "Look at me. Look at me, bitch!" Galaxy told him. Crowley looked, more scared than ever. Mocha and the others came in, and they gasped. There, in front of them, was Galaxy pinning Crowley to the wall, and Galaxy was somehow unscathed. "You killed Crimson. Now, I'm here to avenge her." Galaxy said. Crowley gulped. Then, Galaxy backed down. "But not today." He said. Crowley chuckled.

"Had a change o' heart, did we?" He chuckled nervously. Galaxy rolled his eyes and jammed the First Blade directly in Crowley's chest. Crowley coughed and whimpered. "Or not." He said as he exploded into dust. Galaxy looked at Crowley's remains, and sneered.

"Goodbye, Crowley." He said. His eyes reverted back to brown, and the Blade fell out of his hoof. He felt dizzy, and soon passed out on the cold stone floor.

"Galaxy!" I called as we raced to him. He was passed out, but alive. Celestia and Luna walked up to us, smiling.

"You've done us a great service, Quillton." Luna said. "Crowley is no more, and you have saved Equestria again. Tia, I think they deserve a break." Luna said. Celestia nodded.

"I agree. Take some time off, Quillton. Relax." She said. I nodded, and smiled. Sunset kissed my cheek gently and giggled. Later that night at Galaxy's cottage, Crystal tucked Galaxy in and kissed his muzzle gently.

"All he needs is a good night's sleep. Crys." Mocha said. "Then, he'll be his bright and cheerful self." She paused. "Once we find a way to get rid of the Mark of Cain, anyway." She added. I stood up.

"We'll find a way." I said. "Come on, let's give Galaxy some time to rest." I told the two mares, who nodded. Just as I closed the door behind us, a familiar blue shape loomed from the window, his blood red eyes glowing. Comet stepped into the room, smirking. He looked at his brother, who was resting.

"Well, hello again, brother." Comet chuckled. "I heard you killed Crowley and had success doing so. I also know that the Mark is slowly changing you inside. You passed out because you couldn't handle the power. You know Galaxy, funny thing about that Mark. Cain never told you what would happen after the battle." Comet explained. He stared at his brother. "Open your eyes, Galaxy. You're being given a new lease on life, a life of the demon kind." Comet smirked. Suddenly, Galaxy's eyes snapped open, and they were as black as sin itself. He smirked, laughing. Comet joined in as well, and the two of them laughed. I didn't realize it until now. Then again, Galaxy's eyes were black when he fought Crowley. I was a fool to let Galaxy take on the Mark! I told myself. I should've stopped him and taken it. Why? The Mark of Cain had turned my best friend since Kindergarten.....into a demon. Now, Comet was back as well, somehow alive after Mocha bit him and drained him of blood. Crystal heard a window shatter and raced upstairs. I was shaking.

"Quill?!" Sunset asked. "What happened?" She comforted me. I pointed my hoof to the room. Crystal gasped. The room reeked of sulfur, and Galaxy....was missing.

"Where is he?!" Crystal demanded. "Quillton Brooks, where is my husband?!" Crystal asked me again. Melody looked at me, worried.

"Uncle Brooks, where's my dad?" She asked. I swallowed and sighed. Soul, Sunset Valerium, Mocha, Crystal, and Melody looked to me for an answer.

"Comet's back." I said. "Alive. He's taken Galaxy. That's not all, however. Our Galaxy.....has become a demon." I said. Everypony, including Crystal, gasped in horror. Melody hugged her mother tightly, worried for her father. We all were. Who knows what Comet wanted with Galaxy. The two had run off in a hurry as they heard us coming upstairs, going Hell knows where............

To be concluded........

Prologue: Two Months Ago

It has been a few months since Galaxy lost his brother. Then again, it wasn't all bad because Comet was always evil like his father. I was still there for Galaxy. Who am I? I'm Quillton Brooks, and until almost recently, Equestria was at peace. It happened about almost two months ago, same time Galaxy lost his brother. No one's seen Galaxy since the birth of Mocha's daugthter Frostbye. I was worried. Sadly, that's when the troubles began. An old foe of Luna's has escaped Tartarus and is best on seeking revenge. His name? Crowley, the King of Hell himself. Crowley was difficult to fight, and this is the story of that very fight, how we all risked our lives for Equestria.........one last time, or so we thought.
