ESF: The Return of Comet Nebula

    After everything had settled down, Mocha told me how angry I had just gotten. I gasped. "Oh my God. I didn't know I could get that angry." I admitted. Mocha wrapped her hoof around my shoulder. "I just....snapped when Val said that we might not be able to save Galaxy." I turned to the white unicorn. "Mocha, you'd do anything to save your husband, right?" I asked her. She sighed.

    "Crystal, don't tell anypony this, but Val and I? We're not exactly having a good marriage right now." She told me. I gasped. Mocha nodded. "Yeah, Val and I have been fighting lately, and I think it's best for the both of us if we got a divorce. Oh, if he even thinks I'm letting have custody of Frosty, he is surely mistaken!" Mocha added. I patted her back.

     "Easy there, Mocha. We've all been through a lot. I know you'll do what you think is best." I comforted her. Mocha nodded. Then she gasped.

     "Hey, speaking of marriages, how's yours and Galaxy's?" She asked. I squeaked in surprise, causing Mocha to giggle.

     "Mine and Galaxy's marriage?" I asked. She nodded. "Um, well, it's good. Melody just loves spending time with her father." I told her. Mocha looked at me like she wanted to know more, go deeper into the conversation. I stared at her, clearly not amused. "I am not telling you about our sex life." I told her bluntly. Mocha giggled.

     "Figured you'd say that." She laughed. I laughed a bit too. I needed it after everything that's happened. "I wonder if Quillton's come up with a way to make Galaxy come to us." She wondered. Normally, with Galaxy by his side, Quillton and Galaxy could solve a problem in a matter of seconds. Without his partner to help him, Quillton was stumped, and he never got stumped! I walked over to the white earth pony.

      "Quill?" I asked. He looked up. "How are you holding up?" I asked him. He sighed.

      "Aside from the fact that my best friend and scientific partner is currently running around all of Equestria with that psychotic brother of his? I'm not doing too well, dearie." He admitted. I patted his shoulder.

      "You'll find a way." I said. "I mean, normally, when you and Galaxy are together, you'd solve a problem in a matter of seconds! Besides, the only pony who would know how to make Galaxy and Comet come to us is.....Galaxy....." I realized, a light bulb going off in my head. Quillton gasped, grabbing my by my forelegs. I yelped in surprise as he spun me around.

       "Crystal Harmony, you just gave me an idea!!!" He laughed. I chuckled nervously.

       "What did I do, exactly?" I asked. Soon, Mocha, Soul, Sunset, myself, Quillton, Castiel, and Valerium were all huddled up.

       "OK, guys. Crystal here just gave me an idea. The only pony that would know how to bring Galaxy to us would be Galaxy, right?" He asked. The rest of us nodded. "OK, so here's what I'm thinking. We need a way to bring Galaxy to us in a way only Galaxy would know. Crystal, any ideas?" He asked me. I nodded.

        "Yeah. I have one, but I don't like it." I groaned. A few minutes later, I was being tied to a chair using iron chains. "Oh, I hate playing the damsel in distress!" I protested. Sunset giggled.

        "Hey, it was your idea, not ours." She told me. I silently growled. I hated when Sunset was right. Suddenly, everypony gasped as a blue bubble surrounded me.

         "Hey! What the hell is going on?!" I demanded. Mocha tried breaking the bubble, but it didn't break. "Guys, this is not funny!!!" I shouted before the bubble vanished, taking me with it.

         "Crys!" Mocha exclaimed. I didn't know where I was. When I opened my eyes, there was a pony in front of me. I could tell I was on the ground on my stomach. I looked up, and saw Comet standing in front of me. I yelped and nearly crashed into a wall. Comet chuckled.

         "Easy there, Harmony." He told me. I growled. "What's with the hostility? What, no 'Hello' to your brother-in-law?" He asked me. I sneered.

         "Where is my husband, you bastard?" I demanded. Comet straightened.

         "Well, straight to the point then. Galaxy? He's here, he's just getting ready for our journey. One he insisted bringing you along." Comet said with a look of distaste. When Galaxy walked into the room, my heart did a full leap, until I saw his eyes. They were indeed black, signaling that Galaxy was not himself. Comet chuckled. "All set, Galaxy?" Comet asked.

         "Yup." My husband replied. "Just need a few more things and we're all set to go." He said. I was confused.

         "What's going on?" I demanded. Comet looked directly at me, anger burning in his eyes.

         "Simple, Crystal. Me and Galaxy are going on a mission to re-awaken Crowley's army of demons from Tartarus, and you're going to help us. Don't, well, you can guess the answer." Comet told me. I gulped. I didn't want Galaxy to get hurt, but I didn't want to help him either.

         "I'd rather die than help a selfish, abusive asshole like you." I told him. Comet chuckled.

         "Well, in that case...." He started. I gasped as a familiar vine shot out of the ground, wrapping around all four of my legs, lifting me into the air. One wrapped around my neck, but not too tightly where I could still breathe. "Plunder Vines." Comet chuckled. "I'm sure you've seen them before. You know, I hear the vines have an urge to please you, if you can guess where I'm going with this." He laughed. My tail unconsciously tucked between my hind legs, covering my most sensitive spot. "Help us, and they won't." Comet demanded. I couldn't, but I didn't want to be fucked by vines, either. I sighed.

          "OK, you win. I'll help you." I told him. The vines unwrapped themselves from my legs, causing me to fall flat on my stomach. Comet chuckled.

           "How very wise of you, Cryssy." He smirked. I looked at Galaxy, and sighed. I might have just doomed Equestria for good with my decision. I hoped I didn't, and that the others were finding a way to rescue both me and Galaxy from this predicament.
