Chapter 1: New Day, New Adventure

It was very busy at my Cafe one afternoon. Half of Ponyville was lined up to get some fresh coffee. A few years had passed since Melody's uncle, Comet, had been defeated. Now mortal, Comet was serving a life sentence in the Canterlot dungeons for a number of reasons. Attempted murder, forbidden use of time travel, attempted rape via plunder vines, the reasons were endless. Some reasons I do not wish to describe, because some might seem a little too violent, even for a standard pony.

So now, me and the gang just lived out our lives in peace. The only ones really excited were Galaxy and Quillton. They continued their science work while Crystal still worked alongside Nurse Redheart helping sick and injured ponies. Yes I know, Galaxy's got his own private nurse, OK? Ever since Val's death, I've moved on from my past and was now dating a unicorn by the name of Icy. He was a kind pony, and hell, Galaxy even approved of him! Galaxy came in and sat down, looking tired from work. "Tired, Gal?" I asked him. The blue pegasus nodded, adjusting his stetson.

"Mochy, you have no fucking idea." He told me. "Me and Quill are just working non-stop with this new plan of Celestia's. She wants a shield around the whole outside of Ponyville and Canterlot. Ponies like us can step through it easily, but monsters? Ha!" He chuckled. I giggled.

"That sounds like a lot of work. How far are you two in the project?" I asked. Galaxy looked at me with a serious look and that was all I needed. His look told me they were only in the beginning stages. "OK, how long until it's completed?" I asked him. The blue pegasus put a hoof to his chin.

"From the point me and Quill are on now? About 6 to 9 months." He said. My jaw dropped.

"69 months?!" I exclaimed. Galaxy face-hoofed and sighed.

"No, silly Mocha. 6 to 9 months." He explained. My face turned a rose red as I chuckled nervously.

"Heh, heh. Oh." I giggled. Galaxy sighed and ruffled my mane. I looked at the calendar and smirked. "Say, isn't today yours and Crystal's 15th anniversary?" I asked. Galaxy's ears flicked straight up at the mention of that.

"Holy shit, it is!" He gasped. I giggled. "Thanks for reminding me, Mochy. I have to get Crystal's gift!" The pegasus exclaimed, throwing two bits on the counter and darting out the door. My horn glowed a faint yellow as my magic aura picked up the bits and put them in the register.

"Same ol' Galaxy, always there for his friends and wife." I said to myself. It had been 5 years since Comet's defeat, and, well, not much has happened. Frosty was at least 6 now, and she was learning to use her magic. Melody helped her when she could. Speaking of Melody, she was now 15 and had her cutie mark. It was a purple microphone and treble-clef, signifying her passion for music. She had turned into quite the mare. Her aunt Crimson took her out for girl time whenever she could. At Canterlot, Galaxy's brother was pacing back and forth like crazy. Night fell and the guards kept switching every few hours.

"Got to get out of here somehow." Comet muttered to himself. Suddenly, shadows enveloped around Comet, causing the guards to gasp and drop dead. Apparently the shadows were toxic, but Comet didn't drop dead. The shadows teleported him to an old castle. A mare sat on the throne, smirking and staring at Comet with sultry eyes. "Nightmare....Moon?" Comet asked. Nightmare Moon nodded.

"Hello, sweetie." Nightmare Moon purred. Comet's heart was beating rapidly in his chest. His lover walked towards him, her tail swaying back and forth. "I heard how that awful Galaxy defeated you and you turned mortal." The alicorn pouted. "I miss vampire you. You were so terrifying." She whispered in Comet's ear. Comet just stared as Nightmare Moon circled around him, swaying her hips back and forth.

"I've been overly busy." He replied. Nightmare Moon put a hoof on her lover's shoulder. "Why did you free me?" Galaxy's brother asked. The alicorn giggled.

"What, I can't see my favorite pegasus?" She giggled again. Comet raised an eyebrow. "I have a plan." She groaned, her ears dropping.

"That doesn't surprise me." Comet said as Nightmare Moon began to pace around. "Tell me something I haven't heard before." He added. The alicorn sighed.

"I plan to conquer Equestria, but to do so, I need your help, and Haggarium." She said. Comet's wings sprung out in surprise.

"Uh, sweetie?" He asked. "Isn't all the Haggarium in Equestria gone?!" He asked the alicon. Nightmare Moon giggled.

"Don't worry, baby. I've been secretly keeping a stash hidden in Dragon's Cove, untouched by Celestia and Luna." She smirked. For a second, Comet's green eyes flashed red, causing him to smirk. Ever since he reverted to being mortal and alive, Comet's eyes were green, but sometimes, when in an evil situation, they flashed their dominant red color. Late that night, I was just closing up shop. About 10 years ago, give or take, Comet jump-scared me in this exact spot, causing me to be sent to the hospital. As far as I knew, Comet was locked up tight. That was until, Galaxy got a letter directly from Celestia. He called all of us over at his house.

"What's it say, buddy?" Quillton asked. Galaxy cleared his throat as his wife peered over his shoulder.

"Galaxy, I do not mean to disturb you. I know how much you've been through over the past few years after you and your brother's battle. I regret to inform you that somehow, your brother has escaped and apparently unclear to me, the guards that were watching him have ended up dead. Please come to Canterlot immediately, I believe your expertise and optimism may be required. Celestia." Galaxy sighed after reading the letter.

"So, all of us?" Crystal asked. "Or just my husband?" She wondered. Sunset face-hoofed.

"Crystal, dear?" She asked. Crystal looked up. "Celestia asked for just Galaxy. That means we have to stay behind." She said, before yelping as another letter flew in, catching me by surprise. Galaxy unrolled it and read.

"P.S., bring Crystal with you. I believe you coming alone might not be good for you. Just a thought." The letter read. Crystal read it and s'queed in delight. She turned to Sunset and smirked.

"What was that about us staying behind?" She asked. Sunset stuck out her tongue at the pegasus and pouted. Quillton patted her back and winked at Crystal. Soon, at the train station, the couple boarded the train to Canterlot and the rest of us watched as the train set off towards the palace.

Chapter 2: Canterlot Seige

The train pulled into Canterlot station, which was filled with guards. Galaxy wasn't surprised, but Crystal was. One guard came up. "Galaxy Nebula, just in time. This way." He said. It was Swift Rider, Scootaloo's father. He had the same colored mane and tail as his daughter, but was a white pegasus with blue eyes. His cutie-mark was unknown because no pony saw the cutie marks of royal guards under their armor. The couple arrived in the Throne Room, where Celestia was pacing. Luna was trying to calm her sister down.

"Oh! Galaxy, thank goodness." Luna exclaimed as she ran over to the blue pegasus. "Tia has been pacing non-stop ever since your brother escaped." She explained. Galaxy looked over Luna's shoulder and saw Celestia muttering to herself. "Let's leave Tia be. Crystal, please stay with my sister." Luna asked. Galaxy's wife nodded as Galaxy and the night princess trotted down into the dungeons. Galaxy stared at Comet's cell. "It's almost as if Comet was a ghost when he escaped." Luna explained. Galaxy was busy looking around, then he turned to face Luna.

"Where are the guards that were guarding my brother?" The pegasus asked. In the morgue, Galaxy was looking at the bodies of the two dead guards. "Hmm. Lemme see here." He said, putting a hoof under one of the guards's armor plates. He felt around until he noticed something. "Ah!!" Galaxy exclaimed. Luna was curious. "Massive internal displacement." The pegasus explained.

"I'm sorry?" Luna asked, clearly confused. Galaxy sighed. He sometimes hated when ponies didn't understand his scientific talk. He adjusted his stetson.

"Luna, you know how eggs become scrambled, right?" He asked. Luna nodded. "It's like that, but their insides got scrambled, like scrambled eggs." He told her. Luna made a face of disgust and looked at the bodies. "No evidence of tissue damage, though. I've only seen this twice." Galaxy added. Luna made a face of concern.

"What did this? A bomb Comet placed?" She asked. The blue pegasus shook his head in reply.

"No, no. Much more subtle than that. It's one of two things. Projected energy weapon, which is nearly impossible for Equestria, or...." Galaxy froze, realizing what the other thing was. Luna walked forward. "Poisonous fog. Only one pony I know had the ability to use poisonous fog. I should know, I was nearly killed by it once." Galaxy gulped. Luna gasped.

"No...." She shook her head in protest. "Not her....." She gasped. The pegasus nodded. Meanwhile, at Nightmare Moon's castle, Nightmare Moon was finding a way to make Comet a vampire again.

"No." She said as she tossed away a book. She grabbed another and read the title. "Uh uh." She threw it away as well. She grabbed another. "Nope." She said, throwing that book behind her. Comet side-stepped each one.

"Uh, sweetie?" He asked. "Are you sure the book you're looking for is here?" He asked. His lover nodded and kept searching. Nightmare Moon was in the air, hovering as she looked for the right book. Her silk black tail swayed back and forth, giving Comet a full view of her flank. Ever since her transformation, Nightmare Moon had taken the shape of a normal mare with a silk black mane and tail, sapphire blue eyes, and a new cutie mark. It was a crescent moon with fog surrounding the moon. Comet liked this version of his lover more because she was as tall as he was. She could go to her true form, but only when she was in combat.

"Don't worry, sweetheart, I know it's here." The alicorn replied. Comet ducked as another book was thrown in his direction. "Oops! Sorry, sweetie!" The alicorn apologized to her lover. Then, she froze. "Shit! I just remembered!" She gasped. "Galaxy's pals have the Dark Prognosticus! We get that, it should contain the spell we need!" She giggled. Comet grabbed her and spun her around. "Ooh, just one problem." She gulped. "It's with that science pony, Quillton." She explained. Comet's ears dropped and he growled.

"We'll get it, cupcake. I just don't know how." Galaxy's brother pondered. "For now, let's put that plan of yours into action." He added. Nightmare Moon smirked evilly. Meanwhile, Celestia and Luna were explaining to Galaxy about Comet's escape.

"So it is true. My brother did escape." He said. The sun princess nodded. "Princess, allow me to personally bring him back. I know I can handle my brother." Galaxy explained. Celestia shook her head.

"I do not doubt you can handle your brother, Galaxy Nebula. It's the pony who freed him I am worried about." She replied. Galaxy's face twisted in hatred. Galaxy rarely got angry, and when he did, let's just say you wouldn't want to be standing right next to him. The last time Galaxy got angry, his brother Comet was being thrown across my cafe like a rag-doll. "I would rather that if you do go to bring your brother back that your friends go. You have a family to look after, if I'm not mistaken." Celestia added. Galaxy wanted to say something in protest, but sighed.

"Yes, I know Crystal and Melody are my priority, princess. It's just that, well, Comet's the only member of my family left. He's my responsibility." Galaxy explained. Crystal looked at her husband and felt sorry for him. Luna put a hoof on Galaxy's shoulder.

"Not everything is your responsibility, Galaxy. Yes, there are some things that you can and have influenced. Thanks to you and your friends, Equestria is a lot safer. However, with your brother on the run again and with Nightmare Moon....." Luna said, trailing off. She didn't need to finish her sentence. The pegasus nodded and walked back to his wife. Luna and Celestia watched as the couple left and headed back home. "Tia, Galaxy is right. Comet should be his responsibility." Luna protested. Celestia shook her head.

"No, sister. I will not have a repeat of 5 years ago when Comet time-traveled to the day Galaxy met his friends. If it weren't for Ms. Harmony, well, I don't know where we'd be." She explained. "The question remains, however. Why would Nightmare Moon go to such lengths to free Comet?" The sun princess asked. "It just doesn't make any...." Her voice trailed off when she heard a crashing noise outside her throne room. "What's going on?!" She demanded. Guards flanked the throne.

"Your highness! We're under attack!" A guard shouted, lowering his spear. The palace doors burst open, revealing Comet and Nightmare Moon, in her true form and combat ready. Celestia and Luna sneered.

"Hello again, Tia." Comet smirked. "Let's talk business." He explained, his eyes glowing a crimson red.

Chapter 3: Celestia's Sacrifice/Battle Plan

"I'm here to chat, princess." Comet explained, pacing back and forth. Celestia's guards had their spears lowered. Nightmare Moon gave them one glance and they all fell back behind Luna. The alicorn smirked. "Now then, you're probably thinking how I escaped." Comet began. Luna interrupted, which made Comet growl.

"We know how, your vile bastard. Nightmare Moon freed you." She said. Comet made a growling noise in his throat. Celestia stepped up.

"Comet, for your crimes against us and Equestria, you are...." She began before Comet cut her off.

"Under arrest, blah, blah, blah." He mocked her. "You know, this whole alicorn princess ruling thing is just too much for me. Why do you think I rebelled and joined the dark side?" He raised an eyebrow. "Uh huh. You know why." Comet stomped a hoof on the stone floor. "I am sick and tired of your rule, Celestia! Chaos will soon reign, and soon, ohhh, very soon, I shall rule Equestria with my future queen-to-be!!" Comet laughed. Luna and Celestia were shocked.

"Wait, you mean that you and Nightmare Moon are..." Luna made a face of pure revolt. Nightmare Moon giggled.

"Engaged? Guilty." She giggled again. Luna's and Celestia's jaws dropped. She used her magic to slam the doors shut. Comet chuckled.

"Good luck getting word out to Galaxy and his pals." He smirked. "Now then, where was I? Oh, yes! I was just about to kill Celestia!" Comet yelled, charging the sun princess. Celestia dodged and fired a blast at Galaxy's brother, only to be blocked by Nightmare Moon's magic blast. The two princesses were back to back, fighting Comet and Nightmare Moon. Celestia's horn lit up a bright yellow and she aimed at the evil alicorn. Nightmare Moon's horn lit up a familiar green that made Luna jump.

"Sister, duck!" She exclaimed. Both Celestia and Luna ducked as Nightmare Moon's blast impacted the throne. "That was close." Luna sighed, yelping as Comet tackled her. "Get off me, you monster!" She spat, knocking the pegasus off. Comet hit the ground and shot up, shaking his head. He growled.

"You're good, Luna." He said, his red eyes glowing. "But I'm better." Comet added. Luna snorted and fired a blast at Comet, knocking him into a wall. Comet growled and got back up. Celestia continued firing Nightmare Moon.

"Luna! Get to Ponyville! Get Galaxy and his friends! I will hold these two off." Celestia ordered. Luna stood by her sister.

"No, Tia! I'm not leaving you behind!" Luna protested. Celestia looked at her sister. She sighed.

"Luna, you have to go. I won't let you die with me." She said. Celestia hugged a teary-eyed Luna. "Go, now." Celestia said. Luna nodded and flew off, watching her sister fight Comet and Nightmare Moon. Luna only had time to catch a flash of green and her sister crumpling on the floor, weak and unable to move. Celestia looked up and spat. "You may defeat me Comet, but you will never kill me." She said. Comet chuckled.

"Oh, silly Celestia. I know you can't be killed, but torturing you? Oh, that's going to be way more fun!" The pegasus cackled. Nightmare Moon was in her other form again, standing next to her future king-to-be. "I think we should summon the Nightmare guards." Comet smirked. The dark blue alicorn nodded and giggled, hopping away to find her guards to fortify Canterlot. Meanwhile, I was busy at my Cafe. Orders were piling up and Galaxy could barely keep up. He still worked at the Cafe when he could, but his focus was on that shield Celestia wanted.

"Galaxy! I need three Expresso coffees with cream and 2 vanilla lattes!" I called. Galaxy nodded and begun whipping up the beverages. Just as he had finished, Luna burst the door open, panting heavily. Her eyes rolled into the back of her head and she collapsed, passing out. Crystal yelped and flew to her aid. The customer's looked at me with concerned looks. "Store's closed, everypony!" I told them. They all groaned and went home. I ran to Luna's aid just as Quillton was taking her pulse.

"Still breathing, just out cold." He told us. Galaxy sighed. Crystal was concerned.

"What happened?" Galaxy asked, adjusting his stetson. Crystal and Quillton shrugged. Sunset, Melody, Soul, and Icy were helping to move Luna onto the lounge chair. Icy shrugged.

"I don't know, Gals." He said. "She just burst in and then 'Ploop!' Passed out." Icy told him. Crimson held Melody close.

"Aunt Crimson, is Princess Luna going to be OK?" Galaxy's daughter asked. Crimson looked at the passed out night princess and shrugged.

"I don't know, honey." She replied. "Gal, maybe this might be a good time to give Cass a call, see what he can tell us." She told her brother, who nodded.

"Will do, sis. I'll be back with him shortly, in the meantime, you guys stay with Luna in case she wakes up." The pegasus replied, kissing his wife's cheek gently. "I'll be back, Crys." He smiled. Crystal smiled too, before her husband took off. We waited almost an hour for Galaxy to come back. The door jingled and Galaxy entered with a familiar tan pegasus in a trench-coat.

"Cass." Quillton sighed. Castiel tried his best smile, but it failed. The angel walked past us towards Luna. "Well?" Quillton asked. Castiel's expression was serious.

"Comet attacked Canterlot." He explained, reading Luna's thoughts. "Celestia was captured and Comet intends to torture her, since alicorns can't technically die." He added. He picked up something else that made his face twist in fear. "Nightmare Moon's back, but I don't see anything in here about what her's and Comet's plans are." He told us. Galaxy and Crystal gasped in unison.

"So this is how we might die. Not in a 'Blaze of Glory' style like I envisioned me going, but by our own sun theoretically dying. if that even is my brother's plan, whatever that is." He sighed. "So not the victory I wanted for us." He explained. Crystal sat next to him.

"Galaxy, don't think like that. We've gotten out of tougher scrapes, remember?" She asked. Her husband scoffed.

"If you count my 'brother going back in time and trying to kill me' tougher scrapes, then I suppose." He replied. Crystal nuzzled her head on his shoulder gently. Galaxy leaned his head down on hers, sighing. "I'm sorry honey, I just thought we'd all be living peacefully by now." He told us. Quillton socked him in the fore-leg. "Hey! What was that for, ya idjit?!" He asked. Ever since he's gotten older, Galaxy's voice started developing a faint country accent. Crystal rather liked it.

"Galaxy, what's life without adventure?! I mean, yeah, the whole 'living peacefully' thing sounds nice and all, but we're known for adventure!" He reminded Galaxy. Galaxy rose up and nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, yeah you're right, Quill! Thank's buddy." He replied, clapping his best friend on the back. "Alright everypony, saddle up. We're going into action mode." He told us, causing all of us to whoop in delight.

Chapter 4: Haggarium

Just as we were planning, Luna's eyes snapped open and she charged towards Galaxy. The blue pegasus yelped and caught her. "Hey! Whoa! Easy, princess!" He soothed. Luna's panting lessened becoming more calm and relaxed. "What happened?" Galaxy asked. Luna sighed and took a deep breath.

"Comet....invaded Canterlot. I tried to stay with my sister, but she let herself be captured and now Comet and Nightmare Moon are holding her captive in her own palace. Even I did not have the strength to fight both of them." She explained. Galaxy sat down in a booth and just sat there, speechless. This wasn't like Galaxy, not one bit. Something's up with Galaxy. A voice in my mind told me. For once, I was in complete agreement. It wasn't like Galaxy to just sit there and not say a word. Something was bothering him, and I intended to find out what. Hours passed after Luna had told us was happened. Crystal was holding Galaxy in her hooves, trying to sooth his frustration. Castiel pulled me aside for a moment.

"Cass?" I asked, startled. He put a hoof on my mouth. When I glanced back to our friends, I saw they were frozen in mid-action.

"I froze time for a moment so no pony could hear what I am about to divulge to you." Castiel explained. "You recall why I arrived in Equestria, correct?" He asked me. I nodded. "Well, stopping Comet wasn't the only reason. Mocha, what I am about to say may change your perception of Galaxy." He warned. I gulped, but listened. "You may not believe it, but your friend is...." Cass sighed, pausing and then resuming his sentence, "half alicorn." He finished. My jaw dropped. "Yes, I know. It surprised even me." He told me.

"I'm sorry, Cass, but Galaxy's half alicorn?!" I exclaimed. "How is that even possible?!" I asked. The angel nodded.

"Mocha, how do you think out of every battle you've fought, Galaxy has appeared to be relatively unharmed?" He asked me. Ooh, I thought. That was a good question. Honestly, I just thought Galaxy healed fast, but this changed everything. Only question was, did Crystal know? Meanwhile, at Canterlot, Comet was losing his temper. Celestia was covered in bruises while Nightmare Moon sat smugly on her throne, one leg crossed over another.

"For the last time, Celestia, tell me how to get to Dragon's Cove so I can destroy Equestria!" He demanded. Celestia lost patience and blasted Comet through the palace doors outside, causing him to fall. A guard at the gate was trying to get a delivery pony to leave.

"For the last time." The guard sighed. "We did not order a giant trampoline!" He shouted. The mail pony scoffed.

"You know pal, you could've told me that before I set it up." He explained just as Comet made contact with the trampoline, launching him back to the palace and straight into a wall in the throne room. Nightmare Moon and Celestia both cringed. Comet walked out of the rubble with stars around his head.

"Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star....!" Comet mumbled before passing out. Meanwhile, at Dragon's Cove, Garble and his pals were carefully mining out a dark substance in the abyss of the Dragon's Cove caverns. One of Garbles friends almost dropped his container.

"Careful, idiot!" Garble shouted. "Comet needs this....whatever it's called, in order to turn one of those ponies evil and hopefully destroy Celestia!" The dragon explained. He face-palmed. "Why is it I always have to do everything myself?" He groaned. The last of the containers was full of a dark, purple liquid substance. A cloaked pony looked at the containers, his voice somewhat familiar.

"Good work, Garble. Comet will be pleased with the Haggarium." He said. Garble raised an eyebrow.

"Haggarium?" He asked. The pony nodded.

"A dark substance that was nearly wiped out by the royal sisters. Thankfully, this stash was untouched. Once Comet has it, my ex, Mocha, will be under his command. One dose of this, and it corrupts your heart with dark desires, and dark thoughts........." The pony trailed off, shaking his head. Garble was scratching his head.

"Your ex?" He asked. The pony nodded, removing his hood. The dragons all gasped. The pony was a light grey, had red eyes, a smooth, jet-black mane, and a horn. They couldn't see the rest of him, but underneath his cloak were dragon wings. The pony was my ex, Valerium. Val looked serious. He had a look of hatred in his eyes.

"Yes, Vanilla Mocha, Ponyville's Coffee mare." He replied. "After Crowley's defeat, well, she and I split up and she moved on. That Galaxy was always protective of her." Val spat in a manner of distaste for Galaxy's name. "Believe me, Garble, I plan to get my revenge on Galaxy by taking away everything he holds dear. His wife, daughter, sister, friends, and his family." Val explained, his eyes glowing. Garble nodded rapidly, scared. His face twisted into seriousness.

"Then let me come with you and help you and Comet." He said. Val smirked.

"I figured you'd say that, my friend." He replied.

"I just can't believe it!" Quillton shouted in my cafe. "Celestia of all ponies. Captured!" The part time journalist was pacing back and forth in a frustrated manner. Luna nodded.

"It is a grave situation, Quillton." She told him. Crimson, Sunset, Soul, and even Scythea were here. Me and everypony else called him Scy for short. Galaxy called him Icy, and he didn't mind. He actually liked being called Icy. Galaxy was in deep thought. Oh, how could I tell? You see, whenever Galaxy was in deep thought, his eyes would be closed and a hoof to his chin with his stetson tilted upwards just a tiny bit. Right now, that's exactly how he looked. I heard the bell to my shop cling as the door opened, and everypony, including me, gasped. There, standing in the doorway in a black cloak, was my ex husband, Valerium. Galaxy was so startled that he clutched his chest and fell to the floor, his legs kicking the air. He let out a yelp as he did so. One rule when he's in deep thought: never startle him. Val chuckled.

"Hello, Mochy." My ex said. "Been a while, hasn't it? Let's chat." Val told us. All of us gulped, not knowing how to respond.

Chapter 5: Kidnapped!

Valerium scanned the room, looking at us, then me. "What's the matter, Mochy? Not happy to see me?" He asked. I growled.

"What are you doing here, you bastard?" I demanded. Valerium chuckled. Galaxy was up now, a look of pure hatred on his face.

"What, I can't stop by and see my ex?" He asked. Icy was pissed as well. Me and Galaxy had both told him what Valerium had did to me. That made him hate my ex almost instantly. Galaxy noticed a small, crimson red pentagram on Val's cloak.

"He works for my brother!" He exclaimed, his eyes narrowing in fear. Valerium chuckled.

"Oh yeah, forgot to mention. Comet took me on as his, ah, "go to" pony for errands and deliveries." He smirked. "Plus, Nightmare Moon has been teaching me some new spells." He added. "Like this one for example." He said, his horn glowing. "Conjunctivitis!" Val shouted, aiming at Galaxy. Galaxy took the blast and yelped in pain.

"Galaxy!" Crystal cried, running to her husband. "Honey, are you alright?!" She exclaimed. Galaxy was on the floor, with a leg over his eyes.

"Ah! That damn spell got my eyes! I think they're damaged!" He told us. I turned to Valerium, a look of hatred on my face.

"What did you do?!" I demanded. Quillton stepped forward.

"He cast a spell that damages the target's eyesight. Since the spell was aimed at Galaxy......" His voice trailed off. Crystal was shocked.

"Is it permanent?!" She exclaimed. Quillton sadly nodded.

"Sadly, yes. It damages your vision. There's no guarantee way that Galaxy will have clear 20/20 vision again." He explained. Crystal turned on Valerium and lunged. Val side stepped, causing Crystal to nearly hit the wall. Thankfully, she used her hooves to skid across the floor into me. I caught her and helped her back up. Castiel was with Galaxy, trying to protect him. It was me, Quillton, Crimson, Crystal, Soul, Icy, and Sunset vs Valerium. Val was very skilled when it came to spells.

"Val!" I shouted. He turned to me and looked at me curious. "I challenge you to a magic duel!" I demanded. Val laughed and accepted. The only rule was the last pony standing wins. Val raised an eyebrow.

"The stakes?" He asked me. I swallowed, taking a deep breath.

"If you win, you get me." I told him. His mouth curved into a smirk.

"Against?" Val asked me. This time, my mouth curved into a smirk.

"I win, you leave and you fix Galaxy's eyesight." I demanded. Valerium nodded for he accepted the terms. Everypony stood far enough back for me and Val to have room. We took the battle outside because I didn't want to damage my shop. "Confundus!" I shouted, trying to put a confusing charm on my ex. He ducked from my spell and began to cast his.

"Petrificus Totalus!" Val shouted, trying to bind my body into a stiff position. Being the agile unicorn I was, I jumped in the air and flipped, landing back on my hooves. Val smirked. "Impressive." He said, beginning to cast another spell. "Stupefy!!" Val shouted, trying to knock me out. I ducked and blasted a counter spell at him.

"Tarantallegra!" I shouted, hitting Val square in the chest. Suddenly, his legs began to move uncontrollably, as if he was being forced to dance.

"What the Hell?!" He demanded, dancing uncontrollably. The spell soon wore off after we all got a good giggle. Val's horn lit up green. Quillton's eyes narrowed.

"I know this spell. Mocha, look out!" He warned me. I gulped. Val chuckled.

"Say goodbye, Mochy. Avada Kedavra!!"" Val shouted, a bright green blast of energy blasting out of his horn. Galaxy jumped in at the last second and took the blast, falling to the ground, un-moving. Val was impressed. "Hmm, always knew Galaxy would sacrifice his life for his friends." He scoffed. I was too preoccupied with looking at Galaxy that Val's next spell caught me off guard. "Expelliarmus!" Val shouted, his spell catching me off guard and knocking me onto the ground. I tried to get up, but Val stood over me. "Ah ah, bad move." He smirked. The gang tried to move forward, but Val's horn was glowing green and pointed at me. "One move, she dies." He told them.

"It's OK guys, take care of Galaxy!" I told them before me and Valerium vanished into thin air. We appeared at Canterlot in the throne room, but it had changed. The walls were now purple, and the throne black. All of the tiled walls now showed Comet instead of Celestia and Luna. Comet himself was in the throne, Nightmare Moon at his side. His eyes glowed a dark purple instead of red.

"Welcome, Mocha." He said. His voice sounded like his normal voice, but there was an evil force behind it, like it was Comet, but it wasn't Comet. I gasped when I saw the small vial Comet was holding in his hooves. "Ah yes, you see the vial, I see. Good work, Valerium. Leave us." He ordered. My ex nodded and left the throne room with Nightmare Moon.

"Why am I here?" I demanded. Comet smirked.

"Simple, Mochy. I'm building an army to conquer Equestria. The whole "destroying the sun" plan seemed a bit premature, didn't it? Making an army of ponies infected with Haggarium is so much more fun!" He cackled. I was confused.

"Haggarium?" I asked. Comet nodded.

"Yes. Named after the witch that served King Sombra 1,000 years ago, Haggar. It is her very essence. All of it the stashes depleted, save for Dragon's Cove. Thanks to Garble and his dragons, I have enought to make an army!" He explained. "I think I'll call my army....The "Nightmare Comet." No, that's no good." Comet groaned. He pondered. "Ah ha! The "Dark Nebula!" There! Yes! Perfect!" He laughed. I was appalled.

"You've completely lost your mind!" I shouted. Comet looked at me.

"Oh, silly Mocha." He chuckled. "My mind was already twisted and broken!" He explained to me. I gulped. Comet was actually serious, and for once, it looked like he might just succeed in ruling Equestria.

Chapter 6: Operation: Storm Canterlot!

After the magic duel, Galaxy had taken serious injuries from Val's spell. Thankfully, it hadn't killed him due to him being half alicorn. That made him hard to kill, but it wasn't impossible. The others, however, did not know this. Castiel was talking to the rest of the gang. "I checked Galaxy's pulse. He's..." Castiel sighed, then continued, "taken serious injuries from Valerium's spell." He explained. "Everypony, this may shock you, so prepare your ears." He added. The gang listened. "You all must be wondering how Galaxy survived." He stated. Crystal and everypony nodded. "Well, Galaxy is......half alicorn." He explained. The expressions on everyponies' faces were something I wish I could have seen. According to from what Castiel told me, they were priceless.

"WHAT?!!!!!!!!!" Everypony but Crystal exclaimed. Castiel nodded, then looked at Crystal, who seemed to be smirking a little bit.

"Crystal, you seem....un-surprised by this." Castiel raised an eyebrow. Crystal nodded.

"I....practically knew the whole time." Galaxy's wife giggled. Quillton's jaw dropped.

"You knew?!" He exclaimed. Crystal giggled.

"I'm practically the only pony who truly knows my husband, Quill." She told the white pony. His expression was one of pure shock. Everypony was at Galaxy's cottage because Galaxy could rest easier at home than my shop. Galaxy was in his bed asleep, his breathing shallow and labored. Crystal came in the room and checked his forehead. She then put a thermometer in his mouth, checking his temperature. The thermometer read 100.3 degrees. He was warm. Galaxy was covered in blankets up to where his neck met his shoulders. Castiel came in. "Cass, can Galaxy's eyesight be fixed?" She asked. The angel didn't answer. "What is it? You know something I don't know." She guessed. The angel nodded.

"Yes." He answered finally. "Galaxy's eyesight might be fixable." He replied. Crystal's eyes lit up. "However, there are two options." He added. Crystal groaned. "I can either fix it with my angel powers, or Galaxy has to wear glasses for the rest of his life." He explained. "Since I can't ask him directly, it's your decision." Castiel told Crystal. She pondered.

"20/20 vision vs glasses." She thought. "I'd rather my Galaxy have his full eyesight." She told Castiel, who nodded. He gently put a hoof on Galaxy's forehead and his eyes glowed a brilliant white. A few seconds later his eyes returned to their normal color. As an un-intended result, Galaxy's eyes snapped open. Crystal jumped. "Honey?" She asked. Melody came in and jumped on her father's bed.

"Dad? Are you OK?" She asked. Galaxy sat up and rotated his shoulders. They ached with pain.

"Ahhhh." Galaxy groaned. "What...what happened?" He asked. The three other pegasai looked at each other, then back to Galaxy. "Well, what is it?" He asked.

"Galaxy." Castiel replied, holding up a stack of cards. "How many cards am I holding up?" He asked. Galaxy looked at the cards.

"Five. Why ask me....." Galaxy froze, checking the number again and rubbing his eyes. "Holy....." He realized. He brought his hooves to his face. "I have 20/20 vision again!" Galaxy exclaimed, laughing. "Wait." He gasped. "Mocha! We have to....." He said, trying to sit up more. Galaxy then grabbed his side and laid back down. "Ooh, bad idea to sit up." He groaned. Crystal nodded.

"That would be Valerium's spell still affecting you. Side effects, I think." She told him. Castiel nodded.

"You're really in no state to move, buddy." Quillton's voice came from behind Castiel, Crystal, and Melody. The three stepped aside to let the earth pony walk through. "Galaxy, the best thing for you right now is to stay here and rest. The rest of us are going to Canterlot and rescuing Celestia." He explained. Galaxy looked at him.

"No, I've got to come buddy. I can...." Galaxy protested before his side ached again. Quillton shook his head.

"No, too dangerous, plus, flying in that state? You'd be lucky to even get off the fucking ground." He replied. "Look, Crimson is staying behind to watch you." He added. Galaxy raised an eyebrow.

"What about Crystal and Melody? I can't let them go alone." He told his best friend. Melody looked at her father.

"Dad, look. I picked up fighting easily. I can handle Uncle Comet with Mom and the others." Galaxy's daughter said. Galaxy sighed.

"Yes, Mel, I know that, but if something were to happen to you and your mother......" Galaxy's voice trailed off when Crystal kissed her husband. Quillton made a sound of disgust as he turned away.

"We'll be fine, sweetie." Crystal promised. Galaxy nodded finally and turned to go back to sleep. An hour later, the gang was heading to Canterlot. Quillton was leading the band of ponies.

"OK, guys, We're storming the gates! Comet will no doubt have guards placed. If they attack, disable quickly and efficiently!" Quillton shouted. Crystal, Soul, Sunset, Luna, Castiel, Melody, and Icy were charging full throttle towards the palace. Comet's guards were armed for combat. That's when Quillton heard the barking. His ears dropped. "Oh no, don't tell me......" He gulped. Everypony else except Castiel was afraid. Once his glasses were on, Quillton let out an incoherent squeak. There were not one, not two, but ten huge hellhounds barking and snapping their jaws. Soul gasped.

"Hellhounds?!!" She exclaimed. "I thought Galaxy got them all after killing Crowley!" She protested. A hellhound barked at her in reply, causing her to hide behind Castiel. Quillton got his battle face on.

"We'll have to fight our way through. Guys, CHARGE!!!!!!!!!!!!" Quillton yelled as the small band charged, ready to fight to the bitter end. Quillton jumped over a hellhound and stabbed downwards with his special sword, made out of Stygian Iron. It absorbed the spirit of the enemy it killed, making it stronger against that specific enemy. Hellhound one was down, but there were still nine more to fight plus Comet's guards. Sunset fired a blast at a guard, but his armor absorbed the attack. That's when everypony stopped fighting. The gates opened, revealing me walking down the steps in a black cloak with a red pentagram, my eyes glowing a deep purple and a wicked grin on my face.

"Mocha!" Soul exclaimed in delight. She yelped as I fired a blast of magic at her. "Scratch that, not Mocha." She gulped. I stepped to face my friends, my eyes glowing.

"Sorry guys, but this is where your fight ends." I smirked. My voice was my voice, but it wasn't my voice. The real battle....had begun.

Chapter 7: Nightmare Moon's Defeat

"Mocha, what happened to you?" Soul asked, concerned. A sing-songy voice replied, sending panic through everypony but Castiel.

"I can answer that one!!" Comet interrupted in a singing manner. He landed and his wings folded back, his eyes glowing purple. "Hello ponies! Miss me?" Comet giggled. Melody backed away slowly. "Well well, there's my niece." Comet smirked. "What's the matter Mel, scared of your uncle?" Comet asked. Crystal blocked Comet from advancing.

"You stay the hell away from my daughter, Comet." Crystal warned. Comet sneered. Valerium stepped forward. Comet looked at his guards and hounds.

"Oh, hellhounds?" Comet asked. All of the hounds turned to face their master. Comet gestured towards Crystal. "Sick 'em, boys!" Comet ordered. That did it. The whole battle field was chaos. The gang was busy between fighting hellhounds, guards, me, and Val. Hounds two, three, and four went down with magic blasts from Sunset. Castiel knocked out a few guards but more replaced them. Hounds five, six, seven, and eight were on the field, jaws snapping and barking. One hound had Quillton pinned, trying to bite his head off. All Quill could do was keep the hound at bay with his hooves.

"This is not the preferable way to fight a hellhound, mind you!" He shouted, yelping just as the hound almost got him. Comet was laughing his head off as he just watched. Quillton pushed his hound off him, the hound smacking against the palace gates. The hound shook it's head and growled, it's back legs compressing. Quillton was ready for that. He jumped at the last second just as the hound lunged, managing to impale itself into Castiel's angel blade. Five down, three more to kill. That's when Quill's phone rang. "Hello?" He said. Crimson was screaming on the other end. "He's what?!" Quillton exclaimed. "OK, um, get down here as quick as you can, and bring whoever you can. We may need backup." He said, hanging up.

"Crimson?" His wife asked. Quillton nodded. Comet was laughing.

"Backup won't come! My brother's dead, remember?!" He cackled. Fortunately, Comet didn't know Galaxy was still alive. That gave the gang the element of surprise. "Guards! Dispose of these ponies at once!" Comet ordered. The Nightmare Guards readied their spears, ready for combat. That's when it happened. A giant wave of energy blasted the guards back and killed the remaining hounds. Comet, myself, and Val braced ourselves after the wave hit. "Who in the fiery pits of Hell was that?!" Comet demanded. Crystal looked up, and gasped. Comet's face turned white as bone as Galaxy zoomed across the sky, tackling me to the ground. Then, his face twisted in anger as he turned to Valerium and Garble, his eyes burning with both anger and hatred. The duo gasped as their master's eyes glowed a satanic red. They knew they were in trouble now. Anytime Comet's eyes glowed that shade of red, he was royally pissed off.

"Oh my Gods!" Val exclaimed. "Run for it!" He called to Garble and his guards. Vines shot out of the ground, wrapping around Val and his men.

"So you took care of him, huh?" Comet asked, the vines bring Val closer. ""Dead as a doornail". Weren't those your exact words?" Comet demanded. Val gulped. Galaxy and I wrestled on the ground for a bit before I shook him off. "Doh! Garble! Kill my brother!" He ordered. The red dragon took off, chasing Galaxy.

"Stupefy!" I shouted, trying to blast Galaxy. He dodged and dived, causing my spell to hit Garble and knock him out cold.

"Got to be faster than that, Mocha!" He shouted. I growled, firing blasts at rapid fire. Icy tackled Valerium and the two wrestled one another, Icy landing punches on him.

"That's for treating Mocha like shit!" Icy shouted with every punch. Blood trickled from Val's mouth.

"You're good, Scythea, but I'm better." Val's horn lit up until he heard a plunging sound. He choked a bit before looking down, seeing a familiar blade plunged into his chest. He looked up, and gasped at the owner. Even Comet gasped. "The First Blade......" Val choked. Galaxy pulled the blade out of Val's chest and Val fell, lifeless and unmoving. Comet growled.

"You little!!!!" He roared, charging at his brother. Galaxy dodged.

"Guys! Go get Celestia! I'll handle Comet and Mocha!" He told his wife and friends. Crystal nodded.

"This way, guys!" She called. The rest of the gang, including Melody, followed her towards the palace. Comet was infuriated now.

"You and me, Comet. One last time." Galaxy stated. Comet spat and growled.

"You can't stop me, brother. Once I give the command, my Haggarium infused army will awaken and lay waste to Equestria!" Comet told Galaxy. I fired a blast at Galaxy. It looked like it hit him, but it actually passed through him. Comet's ears dropped. "How...." He gasped. Galaxy smirked.

"Half alicorn." He chuckled. Comet stepped back. Inside the palace, Nightmare Moon was ready to greet the rest of the gang.

"Oh, no you don't!" She shouted, transforming into combat mode. Crystal stepped forward.

"Keep going, guys. I've got this bitch." Crystal said. Nightmare Moon laughed. Quillton and the others looked concerned, but pressed onward. Crystal flew upwards to dodge Nightmare Moon's attack, then dived back down for a tackle. Crystal noticed mirrors all over the throne room. She calculated the point of contact on each and hoped Nightmare Moon would kill herself with her own blast. Nightmare Moon's horn glowed green, as she predicted. She flew up just as the spell fired. The spell bounced off the mirrors, then straight back to the black alicorn.

"NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!" Nightmare Moon screamed as her own spell made contact with her. She fell to the floor, lifeless and un-moving. Crystal smirked.

"This is why I love it when Galaxy teaches my science and mathematics." She giggled, and flew off to catch up with Quillton, Scythea, Castiel, Soul, Sunset, and Melody. Melody giggled as she caught up with her mother and flew with her as the gang soon made it to the cell block. Sunset unlocked Celestia's cell with a spell. Luna hugged her sister tightly.

"Thank you, everypony." Celestia smiled. "Now, we must leave and aid Galaxy. I fear he may not be able to fight his brother and Ms. Mocha on his own." Celestia said. Quillton and Castiel nodded. The sun princess turned to Crystal. "Nightmare Moon?" She asked.

"Dead. Bitch killed herself with her own spell." She smiled. Quillton jaw dropped.

"How! The calculations alone could've taken a full hour just to get the angle of impact on the mirror just right!" He gasped. Crystal giggled.

"Spoilers." She winked, flying off. Quillton muttered something in an incoherent manner and followed Crystal outside, along with the rest of the gang to help Galaxy.

Author's Note

The theme I imagined when I made my entrance in this battle

Chapter 8: Comet's Demise/Scy's Proposal?!!

As soon as we all got outside, Comet and Galaxy were locked in deep combat. Galaxy was fighting Comet with the First Blade, while Comet was using a six foot long curved blade. Crystal gulped. A scythe. The blade was blended between two metals, angel steel and Stygian iron. Galaxy parried Comet's swipe and dived for an attack. The scythe grazed Galaxy's shoulder, causing him to drop the First Blade and grab his shoulder. Comet chuckled. "Who would've thought that my scythe would be your destruction?" He chuckled. Scythea pulled me aside and tried to knock some sense into me.

"Mocha, listen to me. You've got to fight that Haggarium inside you." He explained. I wouldn't listen and I kept struggling. "Mocha, the Haggarium is controlling you. You can purge it, but you've got to fight it! Galaxy's about to be killed and he needs all of us!" He told me. I gasped. I looked at Galaxy and the purple drained out of my eyes for a second. I looked at Icy and almost began crying.

"Scy....." I said tearfully. "Help me......" I pleaded. I didn't need to say anymore. Scy gently placed his lips against mine and kissed me lovingly. I pulled away and threw my head up as the Haggarium infusion purged itself from my body, entering Comet. The cloak fell off and my eyes were back to a chocolate brown. I gasped, smiled, and hugged my colt-friend. "I love you, Icy...." I told him. He hugged me back and smiled. "Now let's kick Comet's ass!" I shouted. Icy turned to the group.

"Alright, let's do this thing!" He shouted. Everypony cheered and began charging at Comet. Comet gulped and took to the air. Galaxy's shoulder was still bleeding, but he took to the air and fought his brother.

"Galaxy, no! You're injured! You could die just from fighting!" Crystal pleaded. Galaxy tackled Comet and dived him into the ground.

"I'm sorry, Crys, but this is something I have to do! Comet is not winning this time!" He explained. Castiel understood what Galaxy was doing. Comet swung his scythe again, leaving a gash on Galaxy's cheek. Galaxy took the pain and kept going. Quillton was in awe.

"His magic can only help for so much longer! His heart-rate is reaching critical mass!" He said. Soul ran forward.

"Run away, Galaxy! What is he doing?!" She exclaimed. Celestia pushed forward.

"He's protecting us from Comet!" She replied. Comet growled and kept fighting Galaxy. Comet's scythe was causing critical damage to Galaxy. He was cut practically everywhere but his legs and wings.

"Comet is not getting away this time!" Galaxy shouted. "Quillton! Mocha!" He called. "Take care of Crystal and Melody for me!" He asked. Crystal gasped.

"Galaxy, no! If you keep fighting, you'll die!!!" Crystal screamed. Comet finally realized what Galaxy was doing. The cuts were suddenly filled with a white light.

"What're you doing?! You'll destroy yourself!" Comet shouted. Galaxy then grabbed him. "What!" He exclaimed. "Let me go, you idiot!" He demanded. Galaxy looked Comet dead in the eye.

"That's why I'm taking you with me!" Galaxy told him. Comet struggled to get free, and the light only grew brighter. Galaxy's eyes glowed a brilliant white. Comet's eyes narrowed in fear.

"Are you insane!" Comet shrieked. "You'll kill us both!" He shouted. Galaxy smirked.

"Like I said to you before, I'll do anything to defeat you, even if it costs me my life!" Galaxy shouted. Crystal couldn't watch. She and Melody turned away. Comet gulped.

"No. No! Nooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Comet screamed before he and Galaxy both exploded in a brilliant white light. When it was gone, both Galaxy and Comet were gone. Crystal took off and screamed.

"GALAXY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" The purple pegasus screamed in a cry of sadness and pain. She flew towards me and tackled me in a hug. "He's....he's gone!!" She cried into my shoulder. I patted Crystal's back. Suddenly, A blur of blue was falling from the sky. I gasped.

"Oh my Faust, he survived!" I exclaimed with joy. Crystal squee'd with delight. That's when we realized it.

"He's not slowing down!" Quillton yelped. Castiel took off and caught Galaxy, landing gently and placing him on the grass. Galaxy's eyes were closed and his cuts were slowly healing. Crystal trotted up and knelt down next to Galaxy, laying her head on his chest.

"Honey?" She asked, her eyes full of tears. "Galaxy?" She asked again. As she turned her head away, she heard a mumbling from Galaxy, causing her to turn her head back and listen. "Hmm?" She asked hopefully. She gasped as Galaxy muttered something.

"Remind me never to do that again." Galaxy groaned, his eyes opening and sitting up. Crystal squealed with delight and connected her lips to Galaxy's, kissing him. Galaxy was taken back for a second before he kissed her back. The couple shared a twelve second passionate kiss before they broke apart, both of the pegasai blushing. Quillton clapped Galaxy on the back.

"Good to see you're still in one piece, buddy." He chuckled. Galaxy chuckled as well. "So, Comet?" He asked. He was right. That was the question on everypony's mind. Galaxy smirked.

"Let's just say we won't be hearing from my brother anymore." The blue pegasus told us. All of us cheered in delight, celebrating the victory.

1 week later..........

"OK, keep it coming! Keep it coming! Good!" Galaxy told a crane operator that was putting in a new sign for my coffee shop. It was now named Icy Mocha. Me and Sycthea loved the name. Both of us were outside staring at the sign. "Well guys, what do you think?" Galaxy asked, standing next to me. I hugged him.

"I love it, Galaxy." I smiled. Scythea put a hoof around me.

"Icy Mocha, I like it." He chuckled. "Sounds like the name of a coffee." He joked. I giggled. Crystal was there with Melody. Mel hugged her father.

"So, sweetie, what now?" Crystal asked. Galaxy shrugged.

"Honestly? No idea. I mean, Equestria is safe now that Comet and Nightmare Moon are gone. I guess....." Galaxy sighed, "we move on to our normal lives. I continue working at Icy Mocha, Quill's gone off for journalism, Sunset a voice actress, and Soul a Rock 'N Roll singer." Galaxy replied. Crystal smiled.

"Well, you're not working the coffee shop alone, honey. Since Mel's 16 now, she can legally work at the shop with us." Crystal giggled. Galaxy's jaw dropped. "Yep, Icy Mocha is about to get some new staff members." She kissed her husband's cheek, who was still in a state of shock. I giggled. Life in Equestria was peaceful finally, all thanks to Galaxy and the gang. During his free time, Castiel taught Galaxy how to control his angel powers and put them to good use should Equestria be attacked again. What happened? Oh, we all went on to live normal lives. Galaxy found out Crystal made Nightmare Moon kill herself, which he flipped out over. That one gave me a good laugh. Oh, me and Scythea? Well, we've been officially dating for about 5 years now and Scy is helping me take care of Frosty. Celestia and Luna went back to rule Canterlot. So, all in all, no matter how high the stakes, good always triumphs over evil.

Oh, you're wondering if anything happened after Comet's demise? Well, that would be spoilers, now wouldn't it? Late that night, I was closing up shop when Scy surprised me. "Oh! Scy, you startled me." I said. My coltfriend chuckled.

"Sorry about that, Mochy." He nuzzled me. "I was just running an errand." He explained. That's when he got down on one knee and used his magic to levitate a small box. I was confused, until he opened it. Inside was a small golden ring. I gasped, putting a hoof to my mouth. "Mochy, will you make me the happiest stallion in Ponyville and....marry me?" He asked. My eyes were filled with tears of happiness.

"Oh Scy." I sniffed, taking the ring. "Yes. A thousand times Yes!" I exclaimed, hugging him tightly. I kissed his cheek gently and smiled, hugging him. Scy hugged me as well. Soon, our big day would take place, and I was happy.

Epilogue: The Wedding/The End?

2 months later...........

"Mocha, come on! We're going to be late!" Crystal groaned as she tried to get me into my dress. She was my maid of honor, and she was in a fancy white dress. I struggled into my dress.

"It's not my fault the damn dress won't fit!" I protested. Crystal's ears dropped as she sighed.

"It would if you stopped struggling!" She told me. "Galaxy is waiting for us outside to take us to Canterlot!" She told me. I gasped.

"The wedding's in Canterlot?! I exclaimed, zooming into the changing room. Galaxy walked inside and was confused.

"She goes when it's in Canterlot." He sighed. "Come on, Quill will be here soon." Galaxy told us. Me and Crystal nodded and soon arrived at Canterlot. Soul was there along with Sunset and Crimson. Galaxy went with Quill, Cass, and Scy as me and the girls went downstairs. It was unlucky to see the bride before the actual wedding. Galaxy fixed up Icy's tie. Icy smiled.

"You're really OK with this, Galaxy." He chuckled. Galaxy gave him a small smile.

"You know, after dealing with Changelings, demons, Mocha's ex, and my brother?" He asked. "I think I can relax." He sighed. "You take good care of Mocha, alright, Icy?" Galaxy asked. Icy nodded and crossed his heart.

"I promise I will take good care of her." He told the pegasus. "Now, let's go join the altar, shall we?" Icy chuckled. Galaxy and Icy trotted up to Celestia. They looked around and saw the whole town was here. Celestia smiled.

"Everypony ready?" She asked Galaxy. Galaxy smiled.

"Almost, Mochy will be here any second." He said. He turned to Vinyl and Octavia. "You girls ready?" He asked. Vinyl nodded and Octavia readied her cello. The doors opened, and there was Mocha, walking down the aisle. Octavia and Vinyl began playing as Mocha contined down the aisle. She smiled. Once she got up the steps, she looked at Icy.

"Mochy, you look amazing." Icy smiled. Mocha's cheeks turned a light red.

"Thanks." She giggled. Celestia smiled.

"Fillies and gentlecolts." She began. "We are gathered here on this day to witness the union of these two young ponies, Vanilla Mocha and Scythea. Should anypony object to this union, speak now or forever hold your peace." She announced. No one spoke. Crystal was getting teary-eyed. "Scythea, do you take Vanilla Mocha as your wife, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, till death do you part?" She asked Scy. He nodded, smiling.

"I do." He replied. Celestia turned to me.

"Vanilla Mocha, do you take Scythea as your beloved husband, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, till death do you part?" She asked me. I was hesitant at first, but then, a smile made it's way across my face.

"I do." I replied, smiling. Celestia smiled.

"Then I hereby pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride." She finished. Scythea wrapped a hoof around my neck gently. I did the same, leaning in slowly as our lips connected into a passionate and magical kiss. Everypony cheered, and, Galaxy tossed his hat. Crystal gasped.

"Honey, your hat!" She exclaimed. The blue pegasus chuckled.

"Eh, I've been wearing that thing forever, I think it's time to go on without it." He smiled. Crystal rolled her eyes and giggled, kissing her husband's cheek. The whole town was cheering for me and Scy.

"I love you, Scy." I blushed. Scy chuckled and nuzzled me.

"I love you, too, Mochy. I always will." He promised me. That was all I needed to hear from him. Galaxy led the group.

"Come on, guys! To the cafe for the party!" He whooped, taking off. Crystal giggled and took off after Galaxy as all of us went to Icy Mocha, mine and Scy's cafe. The party was great. Me and Scy danced while Quillton was measuring the alcohol content of the beverages. We had gotten ciders from Sweet Apple Acres. Crystal was trying to keep Galaxy away from that stuff after she told me what happened to him one time. I made sure he just had a vanilla cappuccino. Once the party had died down about a few hours later, half of us were already passed out. I noticed Galaxy wasn't wearing his stetson anymore.

"Galaxy, what happened to your hat?" I asked him. He looked up and smiled.

"I gave it to somepony who could pull the look off better." He told me. I made a gasping sound.

"Galaxy! That was your favorite hat!" I protested. He nodded.

"Yes, but I think I can live without it." He chuckled. I saw what he meant when Scy came out of the back, wearing Galaxy's hat. I almost choked.

"You gave your hat to my husband?" I asked Galaxy like he was crazy. He nodded.

"It looks good on Icy." He told me. Tears of happiness formed in my eyes and I hugged Galaxy. He was actually getting along with Scy. That told me that Galaxy was done worrying about me and knew I could handle myself.

"Thank you." I smiled. The blue pegasus chuckled and headed home with Crystal and Melody. Crimson headed back to her place as well. Soon, me and Scy were out of our wedding clothes and getting ready for bed. I turned over on my side and looked at him. "Scy, I think Galaxy's finally getting used to you." I giggled. My husband chuckled.

"I figured that after you told me how protective he was when you were with Valerium." He replied. I nodded. "Well, Val is who-knows-where now and Comet is dead, right?" He asked me. I nodded in reply. "No worries then." He kissed my forehead. "Goodnight, sweetie." Scy smiled, closing his eyes.

"Goodnight, honey." I smiled before closing my eyes. Equestria was peaceful at last, thanks to us. Oh, you want to know what happened? Galaxy and Quillton finally got that shield Celestia wanted finished and put up. Melody became quite the singer, Crimson and Crystal became staff for the cafe as well. Oh, me and Icy? We still worked Icy Mocha, and we were happy. This, well, this is our happy ending. About time it got here, or so we thought a year later.........

Prologue: The Road Since Then

It's not everyday you get to celebrate the defeat of a strong opponent. Comet, Galaxy's brother, was no exception. His strength was beyond our own. Then again, he was a vampire, but he's no longer undead. He's mortal and alive, under the heaviest guard in Canterlot Dungeons. Our story? Oh, Galaxy got his sister back as a favor from Castiel, who has moved in with us and is learning everything he can about us. However, our victory was short lived. Why? Comet escaped his prison, and the world was very close to utter destruction, and, well, if it wasn't for Galaxy and the gang, I might've still been under the influence of the darkness. I'm Vanilla Mocha, and this, everypony, is the concluding chapter of Equestria's Supernatural Fighters......
