Prologue: So this is how it began

Midnight Sparkle was not defeated in the human world. But found a new host, a princess from a the world she wanted to conquer. She has slowly been waiting for the prefect moment, and now she will make Princess Twilight the new Midnight Sparkle. As She believe, that she can not live for long.

'You can't run Twilight! Your see!'

"Who there?!" said Twilight.

Twilight look in around the cutie map room and saw nothing. she started to pace back and forward. She was wait for her friend she did send that letter to them about King Sombra taking over the Crystal Empire. And now she think she is hearing a voice in hear head. Suddenly she hear the sound of hooves coming from the door. She say her friend open the door.

"Thanks for coming so quickly". said Twilight.

"WHOA!??!" said her friends and Discord appeared.

"Sure thing" said Discord "But if your going to be the ruler of Equestria you may want to work on your penmanship" as the letter appear out of no where. "This look like it says, Cadence sent an emergency message, Sombra back and he's taking over the Crystal Empire."

"That's exactly what it says!" as Twilight fly in front of Discord.

"But how is that possible." Rarity said "I thought the Crystal Heart dispelled him into the ether."

"I have no idea." Twilight said. "That he's back and it's up to us to save the Empire and my Family"

Futtershy said "Shouldn't somepony tell Celestia and Luna."

"Oh good point" said Discord. "One of us should probably loop in the real rulers of Equestria".

As Twilight heard something in the air 'Your don't need Celestia!!!'

"No" said Twilight "If we're going to run Equestria we'll need to handle things like this on our own."

'Yes good ,but you don't need them show the world your power.' As it soft spoke.

Discord then said "Oh Twilight, could this mean that you finally have the confidence to ascend to the throne like the Princesses would believe you can."

'YES, take it! Its all, your Equestria at its knees.'

"Maybe". said Twilight. "Unless you'd consider taking care of Sombra for us."

'NO Twilight!' Midnight then thought to herself 'But this Sombra sounds like a good King to rule with.'

"NO NO NO!" as Discord said "You're absolutely right you need to learn to handle these things on your own. Tata!" As Discord teleported out.

"Handling thing on our own is all well and good." said AppleJack "But last time we defeated Sombra with the Crystal Heart."

"What if he has it already" said Spike. "How are we gonna to stop him."

'Join him Twilight.'

Twilight looked at the map, then her cutie mark and said " The Elements of Harmony with those we can defeat any pony, even Sombra."

Discord appear looking like he was taking a bath "Ah no no no, You did not need the elements the last time you defeat Sombra and I'm sure using them still count handling things on your own."

'Discord is right. You don't need them or your friends.'

"My Family is in danger" said Twilight. "I'm not taking any chances."

"She's got a point" said Rainbow Dash.

"Fine" said Discord as he left again.

"What's his problem." said Pinkie.

"Starlight can you stay here and take care of the school" said Twilight.

"I've got you covered" said Starlight.

'Why do you still have her.'

The main six and spike where teleported by Twilight as she used her magic to grab the elements and give each to right pony. Twilight was felling light headed and heard her again.

'Destroy the elements. Take the Power Its all yours.'

"Twilight are you ok" said AppleJack.

"Yes Aj I'm fine. Don't worry about me".

'O lying to the element of honesty. I see you are bad'

Twilight said to her self in her thoughts "Ya, I don't want them to know. But this power I don't know how to use, it not in front of them."

'You will have time to use it.'

As Twilight was ready to teleported out. And in to the Crystal Empire.

_____

Sombra was on his throne and eating a grape. And the monarch of the Empire in a Crystal prison created by Sombra. Flurry tried to shout him with her magic.

"It's cute that you think that will do anything" said King Sombra.

"It might not" Said Princess Cadence "But they Will."

'So this is King Sombra. Hey hot stuff.'

"Calvary is here" said Pinkie as they charge in.

Sombra thought to him self "It has been a long time when I face a Alicorn alone why not now."

"This will be easy" said Sombra.

As he said that Twilight's Friends where trap behind a Crystal wall and Twilight was on the side with The King of Shadows. The wall connected to the small prison that had to Cadence ,Shining and Flurry. Twilight's Friends thought this will be a good idea to free them.

'Good this is prefect. I did not plan this.'

"Ah Ha Ha... At last we meet face to face." said Sombra as he got of his throne."Princess Twilight Sparkle."

"So you want to fight me Sombra, My magic is stronger the last time we face." said Twilight

'Yes, show him!'

"If I remember you where that unicorn that found the heart. Well it seem to late." Sombra said.

'She or is it we did?'

As the heart look like is was going to break.

"Because something are better to be. BROKEN!!!!!!!" as Sombra said that the heart shatter and was destroy.

As Cadence ,Shining and Flurry where set free they saw the Crystal castle slowly shaking.

"The Castle. Sombra is trying to destroy the Empire." said Cadence.

There was no way of helping Twilight. As her Friends try to break to wall it was to thick.

"Twilight we can't break the wall". said Spike.

"Go! I will hold Sombra back." Said Twilight as he throw to Element of Magic to Spike.

"No I won't let you go out like this Twily." said Shining Armor.

"I sorry Big Brother, but Sombra must not thread Equestria." Said Twilight.

"But Twilight."

"I Said GO Shining." Twilight said.

'And don't worry Shining she will return.'

There ran out of the castle the City had no crystal ponies around but Sunburst ran to them.

"What's Happening" Sunburst said. as the ground shakes.

"Sombra is Destroy the city." Said Rarity.

"We don't have time to the train station." said Shining Armor.

As they made it they say the castle Collapse and a brave pony sacrifice her life in front of there eyes And the Frozen North cold calmed the city.

"No" Said Shining Armor "Twilight.... no" he was crying he felt his heart broke as he saw the castle destroy, and he lost little sister.

'This is just the beginning.'
