The first search beginsView OnlineRise Of The prince of nightmaresThe first search begins"You see,Little sister."Princess Celestia said with a shaken voice, Obviously remembering the days during the war."Where were you in all this?"Luna asked,Wondering why her sister didn't appear in the story at all."I was in always in the castle,I can't handle war.It puts fear into my heart to see brothers or even entire familes fight each other ."The great sun godess spoke with tears rolling from her cheeks."You would have liked royalflame,He was just like you."Celestia sniffled. "Do you know where each of the brothers are to this day?"Luna investigated trying not to tread on a bad memory."They would be at thier citadels,where the statues would take the place of the stallions who once filled them."Celestia Finally calmly spoke."Then lets go revive them,We should have enough power..."Luna suggested. "No,we don't..Only the elements of perfection have enough power for that..."."Elements of perfection?"Luna was obviously confused by the name."It was the brothers' amulets they wore,It was the only thing that adequetly contain thier power.But when they turned to stone, they broke into more elements.We can revive PhrozenFlame because we have all of his elements."."We Do?"Once again,Luna was befuddled"Yes ,The elements of harmony together form the an element of perfection: Order.One of the eleven"."But how do we fuse them?"Luna wanted to know."I can do that,But that's it.We can send other willing ponies to go to the other citadels."Celestia voice was now decisive,Like a general."Lets get Twilight and her friends for this.This would make an excellent test for her to take."Celestia suddenly went into deep thought about all the scenerios that could play out."I'll get them.

Signed Princess Luna of Equestria." Read twilight aloud so all six of them could hear the message."...You and your friends are to report to canterlot immediately so we may inform you in person."Ended the letter."Wow, it must be serious if she has to summon us to canterlot just to tell us what is going on."Rainbowdash spoke first."Yes, it must be..." Twilight responded dully."There is a train headed to canterlot right now,we have a few minutes before it leaves,let's go."Twilight rushed.Soon after the train left with the mane six aboard, the wave of magic finally reached Ponyville in the form of a great shadow, blanketing the sky with darkness. " What is that!?!?!" Cried Twilight with raw fear in her voice. Then as out of nowhere a shadow burst from the darkness and slammed the train right off its tracks and sent it into the mountain. Destruction was everywhere, but no-one died. Twilight was the first to re-awaken from the accident, only to see a black alicorn. " Hello, Twilight Sparkle. Good to see you're alive. I'd rather kill you in a fight, but not right now, oh no, that would get rid of the fun, here..." Said this mysterious black alicorn as he showed a way to the castle through the caves." See what they have to say, goodbye." And with this he was consumed in darkness and slowly faded away." WAIT! WHO ARE YOU?" Twilight screamed as her full consciences returned to her." Hehehe, My name is Darkflame." And with that, Darkflame faded into the midnight like darkness. After all her friends regained consciences and saw that no-one was hurt, they headed inside the cavern path and kept going to see what was wrong with equestrian, But Twilight felt as though she already knew." Darkflame..." She mumbled. RainbowDash Immediately whipped her head around and blushed." Who?" she exclaimed trying not to sound surprised but failing greatly." I...err...umm....no-one, no-one at all.." Twilight covered up her encounter with this mysterious Alicorn with a strange grudge.
