Monika, Natsuki, Yuri, Sayori and Private Pansy were following a group of guards down the streets of Everfree City. They soon arrived at a site of a building being built, several ponies both bipedal and quadrupedal were carrying around wood and stone.

The foundation was set up and multiple ponies were already building the framework of the building. Monika frowned “This is going faster than I had anticipated, on Earth it woulds take months to get a building like this set up and at least a few months for a foundation.”

Pansy smiled“Construction ponies in Equestria receiveth hath paid a lump sum f'r a job aft'r it’s done depending on contribution. Failure to giveth c'rrect payment with this shall has't the p'rpetrat'r putteth bef're the court immediately. The festinate'r a job is done, the m're those gents receiveth hath paid.”

Yuri frowned “Humans are not a morally centred as ponies are. Humans are much more in it for themselves, smart and innovative sure but many are too concerned with themselves to help others.”

Pansy grimaced “I don’t ev'r wanteth to wend to thy w'rld, t soundeth liketh a cruel and harsh lodging to liveth.”

Sayori smiled “It wasn’t bad, there was lots of fun things to do as well. We watched anime and played video games, our bodies changed to characters from a video game. It’s where the concepts for the powers that Monika, Yuri and I have. We are not sure what Natsuki’s powers are yet but she must have some too.”

Pansy frowned “What pow'rs doth thee has't concluded, be it? None of thee seemeth yond tough from looking at thee.”

Natsuki frowned “Well Sayori has soul manipulation abilities which she can use to levitate a living being many times her size and throw them around, I also suspect she teleport and summon dangerous weapons to attack her enemies.”

Monika nodded “As for Yuri she has the Third Eye which makes her faster and stronger but she turns into a killing machine with a lust for blood. As for me I have a complete mastery of reality, it allowed me to suppress Yuri’s Third Eye and make the four of us immune to the power of the Elements of Harmony. I am not sure about the full extent of my powers.”

Pansy’s eyes widened in shock “Thee madeth yourself immune to the Elements of Harmony, the most pow'rful objects in the hist'ry of the w'rld!”

Monika rolled her eyes “The Elements of Harmony have limitations, as far as I can tell the only limitation on me is what I want to do. At then end of the day I am quite dangerous because I can do whatever I want and that is dangerous thing. The only thing that can stop me is myself, I need good friends by my side to keep me sane.”

Pansy frowned “The princesses has't hadst similar fears, yond nopony couldst stand ho those folk if 't be true those ladies hath lost controleth 'r hath decided to ruleth with an iron fist.”

Sayori's sclera darkened as her eyes glowed blue “If that happens we will stop them, don’t worry about that.”

Pansy smiled “Thanketh thee, it’s valorous to knoweth th're art those who is't wouldst standeth up to the princesses shouldst those ladies falleth to darkness.”

Sayori raised an eyebrow “I’m curious but is do you receive many visitor from any others kingdoms nearby.”

Pansy nodded “Mainly from the Crystal Empire, wherefore? Art thee int'rest'd in doing some travelling?”

Sayori walked over to Monika and whispered “I suggest you head there and find Sombra, he is a talented dark mage who takes over they Crystal Empire. We make things better for both him and everyone else here.”

Yuri meanwhile smiled “I would like to see a city of Crystals.”

Monika smiled as well joining Yuri “I’d like to visit them with her, I’m sure our friends can hold down the fort while we’re away.”

Pansy nodded “T is about four hour trippeth th're and backeth. Doth thee has't enow bits to receiveth tickets?” The four of them looked at each other Pansy tossed them a couple of small bags of bits “I has't m're wage then i knoweth what to doth with, wisheth thy luck on thy trippeth.”

Natsuki smiled “Thank you for the bits.”

Pansy smiled “Thy welcometh. I’ll maketh sure yond Celestia gets some bits f'r thee until thee maketh some f'r yourself.”

Monika and Yuri headed to the train station, after purchasing their tickets and boarding the train Monika whispered to Yuri “Don’t tell anyone but we are going to find Sombra, maybe prevent the Empire from being banished.”

Yuri frowned “So where do we begin?”

Monika whispered with a grimace “We need to convince the Princess Amore that we can take Sombra from the Empire and teach him the finer points of dark magic. Otherwise he is just a dark magic time bomb waiting to go off.”

Yuri nodded and the pair calmly sat there in the train. Ponies watched the two human cautiously as they both boarded and exited the train, the bipedal ones ducking under the door as they did so. When they arrived at the Empire, the Crystal Ponies looked at them in similar way to the ponies of the Everfree City.

Yuri followed Monika as they headed to the crystal castle in the distance, Yuri was looking around the sight while Monika was focused on the castle itself. It did take long before several ponies in shining crystal armour surrounded them “What art thee strange creatures doing approaching the castle?”

Monika frowned “I wish to speak to your Princess, I’d rather not cause a diplomatic incident over this little misunderstanding.”

One of the guards rushed forward swinging his spear “Thee shall stayeth hence from our princess, thee has't n'r right to beest h're thee strange creature!” Monika face palmed as the lance shattered on impact with her chest, the stallion gasped “How didst mine own partisan break… what kind of monst'r art thee?"

Before he could speak a unicorn with a brilliant raspberry mane and a very pale vermilion coat trotted past “Princess Celestia and Princess Luna has't hath sent me a lett'r about thee, I wilt admiteth I wasn’t expecting f'r any of thee to visiteth so lief.”

The guards bowed “Princess Amore!”

Yuri smiled “I wanted to see the sights of the Empire” she then frowned “Monika came here for other reasonsand she wants to have a proper conversation with you.”

Monika nodded “I believe we should take care of this in the castle, can I trust that your ponies will treat Yuri with respect as she explores the city?”

Amore nodded with a soft smile “I’m sure those gents shall treateth h'r fairly, any feareth is simply from the fact the lady is a creature those gents has't nev'r seen bef're. Yond feareth shall wane in timeth, I assureth thee.”

Monika grimaced as they walked away “I hope your right about this” she then frowned as she created a soundproof bubble around them “Now I’m going to the heart of the mater, a colt known as Sombra. What do you know about him?”

Amore’s eyes narrowed at the question “Wherefore art thee asking about the colt, doth thee planeth something sinist'r!”

Monika grimaced “He has a talent for dark magic which likely isn’t very conducive to a place where you spread great amounts of pure love magic once a year. I fear if he found out about it he will grow resentful, the Crystal Empire is not the best place for him.”

Amore sighed “Sombra hast m're than a talent f'r dark charm, that gent is a being of dark charm hath called an Umbrum. The only one not seal'd hence and I w'rry about what wouldst befall if 't be true that gent finds out the sooth.”

Monika shook her head “I believe it would better if he s farther away from the heart, in a place where he can learn about his magic and what he is. A place where he learn to master the darkness within, I’d be happy to take him to Equestria to be away from the heart.”

Amore frowned “Art thee sure about this?”

Monika nodded with the Princesses help, what I do know is that it is better than an alternative future where he destroys you and becomes the Tyrant Emperor that rules the Crystal Empire through enslaving the entire nation. Then when the Princesses defeat him, he seals the entire Empire away for one thousand years.”

Amore’s eyes widened “That gent couldst doth yond?”

Monika nodded “He could but I will prevent it from happening. I will teach him discipline and respect but before anything else he will have to know the truth about himself.”

Amore sighed “V'ry well”

Monika frowned “Then I must speak to him, he must learn to trust me.” Amore nodded to Monika the two entered the castle.

Author's Note

Equestria's history will change because of these four, also after chapter seven I will implement a change to make the older speech easier to understand.
