"Canterlot five hours after the fall

Singing and cheering filled Canterlot's streets as Dainn stepped in front of the mass. Celestia is next to him. On the ground, naked and collared.

"I will have my revenge; just wait..." Celestia's weak, sore voice, barely audible over the cheering, said, glaring up at Dainn.

"Be silent, whore!" Hrathr came up from behind, slamming a riding crop down onto Celestias behind.

The alicorn screamed in pain, tears filling her eyes as she stared up at her tormentors. Her gaze filled with hate, and the hate peaked after looking at a familiar white unicorn prince and his wife. Oh, how Celestia came to hate them. Not only shining armor, but Cadence as well. At first, she held pity for her niece, but that soon changed.

Celestia turned to look at her former subjects. They all looked happy at her suffering, like she deserved all this torture, but all the hate and vengeance soon gave way to confusion and curiosity as she locked eyes with a strange black figure.

It looked like a pony, but it didn't have a snout, wings, a horn, or a face. A black scarf was wrapped around its neck, and golden decorations were all over its form. It started to scare Celestia—no terefy her! But as soon as it noticed Celestia was looking at it, the stranger disappeared again...

CRYSTAL EMPIRE DAY OF THE FALL

"Come here, slut!" Shining armor shouted at his wife, crawling on the floor. She had a twisted, lustful smile on her face as she hurried to her master.

"I am here, my beloved master!" Cadance spoke with an unrecognizable tone. Her voice was consumed by lust and anticipation. She knew what would happen now.

Soon surprise would settle into Cadance's face as she awaited her favorite command, but nothing came. She looked up and saw her husband's face twitching with fear. She turned to where Shining was staring at and froze. On the wall, a decapitated Caribou commander and his head fixed on his crotch making it look like he was blowing himself. On the wall written with blood stood the sentence, "Justice comes not only through words."

A cold shower ran down shining armor's back. He didn't know what, but something about that "scene" made him shiver with fear. Cadence turned once more, wanting to face her husband but instead looked behind him as he saw a strange black figure standing not too far away from, Shining armor. The figure lifted one of its metallic fingers and put it in front of its face as if to say shhh. In his other hand was a guard caipten, the captain of Cadance personal guard Orestes. He shivered with fear, his eyes wide, but then...
Crack

His neck broke, and his body fell to the ground limp.

Shining armor spun around, but the black figure was gone... only the lifeless body of Orestes was there. His eyes still whidened but now empty of any emotion. His body got paler and paler by the second as blood started to drip from his lips.

"Get him out of here! And double the guards!" Shining screamed his fear filled orders at a young guard that had just come in. The apprentice guard nodded and rushed out.

"Double your guards and even quadropel them. They will not stop us. Jurmangandr. scientist. Monster. You. Are. Next."
