Chapter 43

Teleporting to the planet Earth, Princess Eclipsa appeared in front of the inn that most of her family have gain an interest in. Such a long range teleportation would be hard for even her family with the exception of her grandmother Oriana, but for her, she isn't even sweating. She is simply, just too powerful for her own good.
Grandmother Infinitia, has tested her for centuries to figure out why she's so powerful. Her magic is so powerful that no spell could be cast by her without it being overcharged. She has tried to hold back but she simply can't hold back, making her as dangerous to her side as to their foes. Turns out she’s a mutant when it comes to the Alicorn breed. All alicorns get stronger and more powerful as they age, she on the other hand just gets stronger much faster than any other Alicorn, without having to worry about senescence like so many other races as they grow older.
True there is a small number of alicorns to compare her to, but she’s the only one who has displayed the stronger with age gene, working faster than any other. Which is why both Infinitia and Oriana have created a number of power limiters to focus her energy instead of having her throw simple low level spells that leave nothing for miles. At full power she destroys solar systems, from several solar systems away. Forcing her to create her own brand of magic spells, as the normal spell levels are simply beyond her to be able to safely use. (1)
She has seen that anime Dragonball and wish that she lives in that setting, she would fit right in as a god of destruction with them being the only ones who can give her a challenge. Besides Oriana, she hasn't met anyone who can make her actually have to work for a victory. There are other galaxies but, if she left for a wild adventure when she returns the empire might not be there anymore at worst or she would miss out on lots of things that happen while she was away, like the last time she visited another galaxy.
She didn’t even know Celestia had given up trying to have a child the old fashion way and given birth to Sunset during her time away, only finding out when she return and decided to have another fight with grandmother Oriana. Bursting into her room where she had just put Sunset to sleep and woke her up, resulting in Sunset crying and her grandmother grabbing her ear and grounding her in her room. Not to mention her being force to look after Sunset after that, so that she knows how hard it is to care and look after an infant.
Like her mother Cosmica, Eclipsa stands at 12 feet tall and is as well built as her mother. Because of the amount of magic she holds, her body has to be as powerful to be able to handle the strain her magic. Her long purple and black mane contrast with her bright yellow coat. Clan in armor that is really power limiters so that she doesn’t accidentally destroy something. Her body also is covered in magic runes that limits the amount of power she can use, not that she couldn’t just destroy them all simply by flexing herself. But it would take lots of time for the runes to be painted back on her body and for a new set of armor made. She is also very stoic, finding just about everything not interesting even in the heat of battle. For the uninitiated, Eclipsa is a stone-faced, unloving person but her family have witness of the emotions she possess.
“Welcome back Eclipsa,” Galactica she appearing next to her sister by teleporting.
“I’m taking down the protection act you put on this planet,” Eclipsa said bluntly.
“What?” Galactica asked.
“Earth is only independent because of that protection you place. Even with how clearly making us angry would be bad for them. The government of Japan took Sunset pulling that little stunt of hers where she took a drive and betted against herself, for that government to finally get her into a good school. Which took 5 Earth months and it’s only when they been implanted with nanobots that we can use to torture or kill them anytime we want, is when they’re actually doing their jobs. So I’m simply taking away their ability to make their own choices as they have shown it’s only because of the threat of their own lives is when they suddenly care enough to do their jobs,” Eclipsa said.
“I have been humoring them too much,” Galactica agreed.
“Which is why we need to make it clear to them that, we only been letting them do what they want and now it’s time to get to work. Or they be replaced with robots,” Eclipsa said.
“Robots really? Sunset does need some experience in ruling,” Galactica said.
“She does…. I guess young future leaders could be put in charge. But we do need to make sure that everyone on this planet who are in a position of power, is that they’re all completely replaceable,” Eclipsa said.
"We can't just replace all the people in positions of power," Galactica said.
"I see you like some of them. We just pick and choose but we have done that before and with the humans only living at a 100 at best. The future generations will just never know a world where we weren't in charge," Eclipsa said. (3)

Author's Note
1 - Eclipsa has a poor grasp of simpler fundamental spells, seeing how she can’t use a simple light spell, that doesn’t cause blinding light. However, she is also capable of casting high-level magic with relative ease as if they’re low level spells, and many of the spells she uses are ones she made up on her own.
Oriana who measures the power of all of her family and the students of her magic school, refuses to use her as a measuring stick, as it would be unfair to all the others.
2 - While magically Eclipsa is a force of nature, she never bothered to learn the art of war. Why learn strategy or tactics when she could just decimate everything and everyone that opposed her?
Her normal tactic when it’s just wiping out a space force, is grabbing them all with her telekinesis and slam them into the closest star. For planets, she just lifts the entire race into space. When they need to send a message, she destroys the solar system in one blow.
Her fighting style is very simple and easy to figure out. The problem is that there is nothing anyone can really do to stop her from doing it.
3 - Few fictions really get into how easy it would be for a long lived race to take control of a short lived one. The short lived race would simply get use to the long lived one always being in charge or always being around as a consent thing that has always been.
