About 8 years pass. Comic wasn't really important in what the Mane 6 was doing, he and Twilight only really hung out to study. He mostly continued writing books, taking care of his family, and studying, weirdly enough, 8 years pass, still no one is aware of the Dark Magic book. Comic has had that dusty thing for about 10 years now, yet it still hasn't been touched by anyone but him. Comic always buries it, to make sure no one lays their eyes on it. As for what happens throughout these 8 years, basically, the events of the Mane Six, such as Tirek, Starlight, Cozy Glow, the school, all that happens with Comic basically watching from the sidelines.

However, this all changed after the retirement of Celestia and Luna...

"While I am retired, Twilight, I must tell you something. A Dark Magic book, I've hidden it for centuries, has been missing. Missing for about a decade. If you ever recover it for me, and destroy it, I and Luna will be most grateful." Twilight agrees, this was a secret meeting held in-between the events of Celestia's retirement and Twilight's coronation. After Twilight is crowned Princess of Equestria, Twilight set up the Friendship Council, and the Equestrian Parliament. She knows that she cannot rule Equestria alone, so she decided a Prime Minister can help, but she still had plenty of power, therefore, Equestria becomes a Semi-Constitutional Monarchy.

A month after Twilight's reign began, Comic, his wife, and his son are invited to a big dinner, hosted by Pinkie Pie, to celebrate the 1-month anniversary of her coronation. Comic and his family were invited because they were nobility, and Comic's writing became quite popular.

"This is nice, daddy!" Said Manga.

"Thanks, son, agh!" Comic began to have a furious headache and voices of violence is in his head, he shakes his head and puffs his nose. "Huh, must be nothing." He continues to eat.

The ponies hear a crash, including Pinkie, who was wearing a fake mustache, and a weird creature came from the window. The beast stood on two legs, had hands like Spike, but dressed in all black. It resembled a Primate, a Monkey, perhaps. It also had a bladed weapon, and ran towards the Princess, and was trying to stab her. Before it could, Comic's eyes went purple, he picked up a fork with his telekinesis and pinned the Primate down and proceeded to repeatedly stab it, multiple times, even slashing one of it's eyes out. Blood was all over Comic, and the creature. Everyone looked in shock, Twilight went to Comic.

"Comic Field...you saved me..." She said.

"I did? Oh, I did, ha" He replied.

"That was a little violent though...are you okay?"

"Oh yeah, just, y'know, I'm a devout Monarchist, I don't want you to die."

"Good good. Hey, since you killed that assassin...maybe I could grant you the title of a personal Guard?"

"Really? That'd be swell, Twilight!"

So, she did. Comic was officially the personal guard of her, he and his family moved to Canterlot castle. His family was most proud of him. Comic pondered what that assassin was all about, an attempted assassination on the Monarch hasn't happened in all of Equestrian history. It was also perhaps one of the most shocking things to have happened in that castle in centuries. Comic than proceeded to encourage Twilight to mobilize the Equestrian Military just in case, for Equestria may be at war again, at war with a force that isn't even from Equus itself. Twilight agrees with this decision, so she does so. Throughout his life, Comic has seen nonstop happiness, throughout Equestria, so what happened? What are these weird primate things? He thinks something or somepony, maybe not even a pony, is after Equestria, but what? Who would want Equestria gone? He pledges to find out...but for now, Comic has the Dark Magic down in his head, to prepare him for this invading force.

Comic comes to his room, finished with his newest book, to his son. Manga is happy to see his father, Manga tells Comic that last time he saw his mother, she was styling her mane in the bathroom. Comic and Manga want to surprise her! So they rush into the bathroom to see something...mortifying. They saw Misty. Or worse yet, Misty's corpse. Her lifeless corpse was hung from a noose. Comic at first thinks it is a suicide, and he and Manga start to weep. He than notices some bruises and cuts all over her face and body. This wasn't a suicide, but a murder. Comic vows to get revenge on whoever killed his wife! Comic tells his family about the ordeal, they all feel bad for him, and Comic announces he'll take a week off.

That entire week, Comic and Manga hang out and try to cope with the death of their loved one. Comic buried Misty in the royal graveyard. Twilight lets Comic take the week off, she is shocked and horrified of what happened as much as her guard.

"Sigh...Manga, I still can't believe what happened, son. But don't you worry, I love you, I loved her, and I will find and kill that sick son of a bitch. Anyone who thinks they can do that to an innocent pony is a real piece of shit." He said to his son, his son replied with only a nod. He could hardly speak after the events. Pinkie walked into Comic's room, with a cake.

"Hey Comic! I know you're having a tough time, made some Cake, want some? I made it to help you feel better." She said, it was a rich, dark chocolate cake, with cocoa beans straight from Zebrica, it was rich and delicious. Comic and Manga had some, but they still hardly felt better. They thanked Pinkie anyway, she left and Comic and Manga just hug.

When the week was over, Comic could finally begin his job with Twilight. He was still mourning, but he couldn't let that get in the way of his loyalty and devotion to the Princess. He stood alongside her. Spike comes into the hall.

"Ah, my friendship ambassador! Nice to see you! What did you do this time?" Said Twilight, Spike had a scared, but firm look on his face.

"H-hey Twilight! So, I was with the Hippogriffian Royal Navy, yeah? We were sailing through, around the nations of our alliance, and than we saw an island off the coast of Equestria! A huge one! It's never been seen before, it's like it emerged out of nowhere!" Explained Spike, Twilight was confused.

"How in Celestia's name could some random island appear, Spike? What happened?" She asked.

"Well, as soon as I reached the shore, a giant wall surrounded us, and when we came close, they shot at us! They shouted 'Get out of here, Pony scum!', they resembled that primate thing that tried to kill you!" Twilight's look went from a confused look to one of anger and fury, as did Comic's.

"Your majesty! It is clear that this was an act of aggression towards Equestria! We must act now! If we do, this whole thing can be solved once and for all!" Shouted Comic, Twilight nodded.

"Please, Comic, we're friends, just call me Twilight! But you're right, I must...declare war. Spike, do you know what they call themselves?" She asked

"Well, from what I got from the sign, it said 'You are entering the sovereign territory of the Dramatic Syndicate, all non-Humans turn back', they call themselves the Dramatic Syndicate, as for the name of the island, I don't really know..." He explained.

"I say we name it something short and simple, for it won't be on the map long, I will sink that fucking island into the ocean, how about Anti-Equestria?" Suggested Comic.

"Anti-Equestria it is. I must create a speech, and an official declaration of war against them..."
