We now interrupt Twilight Vs. Chocolate for something completely different.

"Have you accepted Princess Celestia as your lord and savior?" said a young colt, no older than the age of ten. He asked it with absolute interest and seemed that it was rehearsed. He was accompanied by another boy who stood to the side awkwardly.

"Where are you boy's from," Twilight asked, looking at the boys with a confused expression. She had never seen anypony do this during her years in Ponyville.

"The Holy Solar Empire!" The other boy answered enthusiastically.

Twilight studied the looks of the two colts. The one that initially said the line was a light orange, with a dark brown mane. He had a pair of thick glasses on his slightly pudgy face. The other was a bright gray unicorn with a fiery red mane. Twilight felt sorry for the boys as the presented a sort of brainwashed feel.

They train them that young?

"The what-now?" Twilight asked, looking strangely at the two boys who simply smiled up at her.

"We operate on the outskirts of town, so maybe that's why you haven't heard of us," he explained.

"Why don't you stay in Ponyville?" Twilight asked, feeling a bit sorry for the colts.

"To be honest, nopony here likes us..." The orange pony said gloomily. Twilight felt a small amount of depression by the kid's tone. "But inside, I know we're doing what needs to be done."

"Oh... okay." Twilight said, trying to lighten up the mood, but her efforts did not work.

"Here's a pamphlet!" The other shouted, giving the purple unicorn a pamphlet that had Celestia's solar cutie mark on the front cover. Twilight then carefully read the words on the page:

The Solar Empire: Ushering the world into a bright new era.

What the? Twilight was suddenly concerned by the wording and images in the brochure. "Okay boys have a nice day I guess." Twilight put on a false smile and closed the door. "That was weird."

"I like her," the boy with the brown mane said.

"I know right? She's one of the first few people who didn't slam the door in our face." The other agreed.

"Although... There was something strange about her."

Twilight browsed the pages to humor herself, but upon further reading, she began to notice the odd descriptions on the pages.

The sun, it will bring us life, and it will eventually lead us to the extinction of ponykind. It is a grim way to end, destroyed by the very thing that keeps us thriving. When the time comes where we bid farewell to the mother Earth, we will be prepared. We hare hoofpicked by Celestia herself to ascend to the heavens and rebuild a colony. We praise our goddess Celestia, so she and only she can enlighten us, and purge the world from it's sins.

"And they have little kids giving these out?" Twilight asked, feeling the need to alert the Princess about the presence of cults in Ponyville. "Spike! I need you to write a letter to the Princess." Spike immediately came down running down the steps, noticing the sense of urgency from Twilight's voice. Spike rushed for a quill and ink and gave Twilight a thumbs up for her to tell him what to write.

"Dear Princess Celestia, there seems to be a problem going around about a "Holy Solar Empire" and children are spreading the word. They worship you and believe that you have specifically picked them to rise to heaven after you completely destroy the planet. Hopefully they do not make any rash actions that might harm themselves... Or others. I have read books about legions cults that have existed, and not a single one ended positively. Apparently they have been forced out of Ponyville, but it seems like that are branching out this time. I hope you can do something to quell this problem."

"What's the dragon doing?" The colt with the orange coat asked, peering through one of the windows.

"He's writing something." The other answered.

"I know that already, but what is he writing?" The two boys watched Spike write down on a scroll, but they were unable to see Twilight instructing him what to write. They watched the purple dragon rolled up the scroll and sent it away in a puff of green fire.

"It breathes fire!" The gray coated earth pony shouted, almost getting them caught in return.

"Shh you're going to get us caught!" The brown maned pony shouted. They bickered for a few minutes until another spark of green fire appeared. The two boys spotted another scroll, this time it was wrapped in a blue royal seal, capturing the interest of the two ponies.

"A letter from Celestia!" The pony with the glasses exclaimed in surprise.

"From our goddess!?" the gray unicorn asked in disbelief.

"But that means..." The orange coated pony trailed off.

"We found our prophet at last!" They both said in unison.

To be continued... Probably never.
