"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.
