Previous ChapterNext Chapter

The princesses stare in horror as they see Luna bowing down to Fear. Her eyes glow red as her muzzle is at his feet, with a chuckle Fear looks at her and looks at the others and asks, " Who else needs some motivation? ". Celestia with tears as she looks at her sister then back at Fear. With rage, Celestia charges at Fear, and with a grin, he holds a red handkerchief in front of him as a joke and the madness children chuckle as she aims for him with eyes of rage. The minutes she is in reach he grabs her horn and spins her around holding her horn and let's go as she slams into the wall hard as blood and air leave her mouth, she breaths hard on the ground coughing blood. The other madness children laugh as Fear chuckles and go to her and say, " Now mother I will give you an A for effort but it seems you just don't learn. ".

Celestia groans and looks at him and demandingly says, " Stop calling me your mother! We are not related by blood or by any means! ". Fear not sadden or fazed he chuckles and laughs his ungodly laugh as he looks at Celestia and takes her horn and brings her so he can whisper something the others cant hear. Twilight and Cadance watch as Celestia's face goes from anger to tears and shock. Fear goes back and grins at her with a chuckle as his eyes glow and he goes to do the same as he did to Luna.

============== Inside The Castle Of Pain ==============

A madness child stands guard outside a door, He hears a whistle down the hall as he goes to investigate Emma takes the madness child's head and slams them hard into the wall out cold. The girls surprised as Fluttershy asks, " Was that really necessary Emma? ". Emma nods and says, " Sadly yes, until the hold over them is broken I have to knock them out so father won't know what's going on, Since he commands my brothers and sisters he can see what they see. ". They accept this and they enter through a door and they are in shock and horror as they see its Fears personal room and workshop. Dead bodies of many kinds from every creature and missing parts from them, spit open and blood-soaked floor and tools. Fluttershy and Rarity almost faint from this but Pinkeypie and Applejack calm them down.

AppleJack looks at Emma as she searches the room and asks, " Emma why er we in this Celestia awful room for? ". Emma searching she answers saying, " Trying to find those daggers we had, I know father wouldn't destroy them. He would find them too interesting to destroy. ". The others help her in the search but AppleJack slips and land hard into a desk and a file falls out. AppleJack looks at it and reads it and says, " Yall may want to take a look at this. ". They come and look and Emma looks at it and says, " I know this logo, it's of the lab father was born from. ".

" So why did he take this? What's so important about a file? ". Rainbow looks at it as Emma reads it and is surprised. Pinkeypie looks at Emma and asks, " What is it Emma? what does the file say? ". Emma looks at them and says, "It's a test report, the night he was created. In order to make him they needed blood so they mixed many types but all were rejected until one mixture was compatible. ". The girl's curious Rarity asks, " Who's blood mixture was compatible? ". Emma takes a breath and says, " Celestia's blood. Her blood flows through Father's veins. ".

The girls shocked and Rainbow says, " No way! There is no way that she and he are in any relation! ". Rarity then says, " I agree but does that really mean that Fear and Celestia are mother and child? ". Emma rubs her eyes, " I always thought father made this a joke to annoy Celestia and poke fun I didn't think it was something real. ". Emma says. Pinky then gasps, " Wait I remember something! ". She grabs in her main and pulls a dagger out. Everypony and Emmas jaw drop. " Pinky how the h-. ". Emma asks but Pinky puts her newfound finger to Emma's lips to shush her and whispers, " Don't question it. ". She giggles and puts the dagger in Emma's hand and she returns to pony form. Emma rubs her eyes annoyed but happy that they have a blade. They leave Castle and head for the Empire as they see it's under siege, Madness children guarding every entrance and exit.

Emma groans and says, " We need another way in to drive this into fathers back. ". Emma looks at them and asks, " Any of you all have a secret entrance into town in your manes by any chance? ". They can tell she is joking but they think. Applejack then gets an idea and says, " I know a way, the crystal caves. ". Emma looks at her and asks, " Right that's where you put me for a while. Wait won't they know where it is?. ". Pinky shakes her head and says, " No the entrance is hidden unless you know where to look. ". Emma nods they she has a shiver down her back as she looks up at the castle as a red light glows in the throne room and the girls and Emma feel immense power up there.

After a while, In the caves, they reach inside the castle walls sneaking their way into the throne room. The closer they get to the room the air feels heavy and electrical, The ground shakes as they are in the throne room walls. Emma makes a hole small enough to be hidden but enough to see through as she goes pale and in horror. The others curious as Emma makes holes for them too and they see in horror as Twilight and the other princesses are Glowing red eyes and under Fears control as he chuckles and points to the mirror and says, " Now my children, bear witness to a new day and a new world. open the gate princesses! ". The controlled princesses bow their heads and stand before the mirror and blast beams towards it including Fears beam as they combine power. The power behind this is unimaginable, world-shattering even. Then a crack can be heard as Fears plan is working, The mirror is cracking. If shatters the door between this world and the next will be open to Fear and his army.

To be continued.
