Serious Sam - My Little Encounter

Twilight Sparkle was anxiously pacing in the throne room. She took a few concerned looks at the map, but she could barely keep her eyes on it. Spike was also there, observing the happenings on the map.

“The Crystal Empire is under attack again!” He exclaimed.

Twilight stepped up to the map and stared forlornly at the Crystal Empire. A black mass surrounded it and tiny flashing lights showered it all over.

“And that’s Manehattan gone.” Said Spike, as he noticed Manehattan slowly disappearing off the face of the map, under a puddle of black. Twilight buried her face between her hooves.

“Why is this happening?” She groaned. “Why are these monsters attacking? What did we ever do to them?” The questions poured out, as her worry grown.

“Twilight!” Rainbow Dash burst through the door suddenly, followed by Applejack. “We managed to push back the attack, but the next one is already on its way. And that one's followed by another rush of suicide bombers!”

“I don’t think we can survive another one!” Said Applejack. “Especially not the suicide bombers.”

Twilight was ready to give up. On the map she saw the black mass of monsters approaching Ponyville. It wasn’t larger than any of the waves before, but they’ve taken too much already. She was on the verge of tears. This might be their final battle.

All of a sudden, in a bright flash of light, Starlight Glimmer appeared in the room.

“Twilight, you've got to see this!” She exclaimed. “The Time-Lock is opening!”
