Darkness Rises when Silence Dies

Dear princess Twilight

I must congradulate you on your recent ascension to Equestria’s throne, I must confess I wasn’t a fan of Tia’s reign. anywho my reason for writing this letter, is twofold. the first is two inform you of my existence. I am Arch Hortate Scorch ruler of the UTRLSEPT you may have heard of us we were allied with the Hooviet Union during the 3rd world war and we continue to be alllies, though i do disagree with the cuurent leadership, Alliance’s aside my secratary tells me that westerners don’t no much about the the Legion and few know i even exist. Now on to the second reson my primary reason for this letter is tell you is that I will be traveling to Equestria in the near future for… familial reasons I will be bringing along my 5 brothers a number of my praetorians, my secretary, 8 Frumentarii, and some… servents. my point is don’t be alarmed I’m not an envader i just have some issues to resolve and I’d appreciate the privacy to do so.

Yours in confidence,
Scorch Ember

Twilight looks up from the letter.

“Legionnaires, aren’t big on spelling are they?” Starlight asked

“Guess not.” Twilight replied

“Should we tell pinkie pie to prepare a welcome party, it sounds like he’ll be here a while.”Starlight said

“Well he did ask for his privacy, besides he didn’t even give a date” Twilight explained

“True, I doubt that’ll stop her though” Starlight replied

“Maybe we should ask Celestia,” Twilight Suggested

“Good idea.” starlight said

“Spike!” Twilight yelled

“What!?!” Spike yelled back

“Could you come here?” Twilight asked

The now teenage dragon walked down the stairs and came to the throne room

“ There you are Spike, I need you to send a letter to Princess Celestia” Twilight explained

“Why? can’t you just email her like normal ponies, I’m skyping my girlfriend” Spike said

“Because, She’ll receive it faster..” Twilight exclaimed

“Twilight, Sunset Shimmer didn’t introduce the internet to Nirnequus just so you could keep writing letters”

“But, Celestia doesn’....”

Spike cut off twilight by pulling up Luna’s YouHub channel on his A-phone

“Email. Her.” Spike said

“Fine, if you don’t want to be helpful,” Twilight replied angrily

“Doesn’t work anymore” Spike said walking off

Meanwhile

“LUNA!!! I’ve changed I’m a gun pony now!” Celestia yelled after entering the house

“Luna?”

“Back here”

Celestia walked back into Luna’s “studio” Where she recorded her videos

“So how was the sports shooting course, You sounded like you enjoyed yourself”

“Like you would not believe I kept telling myself I would hate it but after I hit my first bullseye I think I finally realized how Scorchie felt”

“Indeed, shame he turned out the way he did” Luna

“Yes, but that’s the past now and we can enjoy our freedom!” Celestia said

“I’ve got it” twilight said finally sending her Email

“Hooray” said Starlight worn out

*ding* *ding*

“Up E-mail from Twilight, wonder what happened this time” Luna said nonchalantly

“Just follow your best judgement” Luna replied

“Problem solved”

“Alright, well I’m gonna order a pizza for dinner and an escort for desert you want anything?” Celestia asked

“No thank you, I’ve got a leftover cheeseburger from lunch”

“Alright, then I’ll get Scarlet instead of Tempest then.” Celestia replied

“Remind me how you have three sons, again sister” Luna retorted

“Trinimac and Alex” she replied

“Oh yeah Trinimac the one who got his butt kicked by Orion, Sagittarius, Grim, Scorch, and Boe.” Luna retorted

“Hmph” celestia grumbled

“What!?!” luna said

Legion Mobile Command center, over the sea of ghosts

“I can’t believe we have to fly all the way to equestria just because of some Neo Fazis” Thunder said annoyed

“They’re trying to resurrect Him, not like we can just let them do that, besides I’m not confident Celestia’s runt has the power or personality to win that fight” Scorch explained

“She beat Discord” thunder replied

“A nine year old could beat Discord, Equestria’s just to distracted by “the horrors of chocolate rain and ballerina buffalos” buncha foals they are” Scorch said

“Speaking of which” Thunder said

“Yes” Scorch said
“Given your past actions, there is a very strong possibility that Twilight Sparkle will see you as an enemy” Thunder explained

“The Windhelm-Canterlot Treaty specifically…”

“Brother!... Treaty or not she has a history of bumping off Equestria’s old enemies including your former apprentice” Thunder explained

“Oh well “alert the media” I understand she and her elements of harmony are powerful but you better believe not even they can defeat me” Scorch said

“As you say” Thunder replied

Twilight’s Castle

“The Legion! You mean those crazy slavers who tried to take over the world 13 years ago” Rainbow Dash argued

“Well it’s a lot more complicated than that but yes that’s them” Twilight explained

“And we’re just letting them walk in the front door!” Rainbow argued

“Of course not, We’re going to help Scorch Ember whoever that is resolve his issues, and hopefully teach him the magic of friendship “ Twilight explained

“An’ if that don’t work?” Applejack asked

“Then we banish him” Twilight explained

“Let’s hope he hears us out then” Applejack said

Castle Brimstone

“My Brothers the time has come, has come for us to raise our Dread Father and finish what our Fuhrer started all those years ago and begin anew as the Fourth Reich”

“Haray Heil Histler Heil Sithis We are Hammerfurs!” The crowds shout in praise

“Now That we have decoded the Lexion all we need is a blood sacrifice of a virgin”

“Haray” The Hammerfurs yell

“Now go forth my brothers and bring me a virgin and the tyranny of Harmony will be at an end!”
“Heil! Heil! HEil!” The Hammerfurs” Yell

Outside the Castle

“Bukin’ Fazis, Commander, it’s worse than we anticipated, They’ve decoded the Lexion apparently they need a virgin for some type of Nirnian Sacrifice, Thankfully virgins are pretty rare in Equestria” The spy explained

“I’m sorry what? No they didn’t specify an age? Oh. OH! That makes things darker… will the Emperor be arriving anytime soon”

A large shadow moved overhead

“Well, speak of the Daedra” the Spy exclaimed
