I thought headach's were mean. Not cultists.
Star catcher wake's up from a dream of discord and bow ties. Why? That was beyond her. Her wing's stretched out as she got out of her cozy prision. The moment her hooves touch the heavenly plush of cloud a sharp pain hit's her skull. It felt like thousands of ponies were pressing against her head. She wanted to escape to her bed but she had a job to do. If rainbow dash stopped skipping for her stupid club then those who need a day off could get it! Anger boiled up inside her as she entered the kitchen. Standing by the window was the technic colored freak.
"Star catcher, I was around town and disided to stop by. You see me and my friends have a request for you. Well, not really a request just a 'gift'." The Rainbow colored mare then jumped at Star catcher with ropes hanging from one of her hoof's. The last thing Star remembered was her headache worsening.
Light's. She could see light's, colors and a buck load of darkness anywere other than the light's and colors. So she just looked at the light's, not daring to leave her colorfull sanctuary. You have a job Star... You can't abandon it. The light blue pegesus knew she had to do it. But she was entranced. Finally, she opened her eye's, soon wishing she hadn't. Her headache attacked and 9 pony's were watching for any sign of life from her.
"Rainbow, ya'll sholdn' have bucked her so hard! Fer' all we know she could be dead!" A very familier southern accent scold's another pony. All Star could hear was this. Rainbow dash bucked her.
"Girl's she's awake!" apperently one of them caught her open her eye's for that brief second. a long time passed as she tried to play dead and hold her breath. But her purpling face gave away her life. As more time went by she began to feel a small nudge in her side's. Soon a soft object began rubbing her nose. Between the nudging and the tickling she couldn't contain her breath any longer. Her high pitched laugh filled the area. Tear's pricked her eye's as she tried to breath behind the laughter. It reminded her of how when she was little she alway's lost to her sister in tickle fight's.
"Musa! That's not fair your using your feather's! Hahaha!"
"Star catcher! We have deemed thou worthy to serve us! Rise child." The sudden dark voice filled Star's thought's, ending her deadly laughter. She opened her eye's and stood up, hypmotized by the voice. She saw 6 mare's and 3 fillies. 3 of each race. Each had there attention on her.
"We, the rulers of the dark, command thou to become our child! Forget the light and come to us!" Star pondered this. Was this some sort of joke? It sounded like some cult telling her to forget Celestia and join Luna. She already liked both, why forget one?
"No." She stomped a hoof and scowled. When Celestia hear's about this...
"Art thou saying thou love Celestia and Luna too much for the power of all 4 of us? We have twice the amount of power, ruler's, protection. Anything thou could ask for. All we want is your help." She was wrong. She had to leave both in exchange for twice the amount. But without her princess' , the sun and moon would be left to unicorn's again. And the throne's would be empty. Equestria would fall! Why should she forget the one's helping keep Equestria from falling into ruins?
"I will not forget the princess', I will not help you. To me, you are just a junk yard worker, telling me of treasure's that never have, and never will exist." Star held her ground. The dark voice sighed and then mumbled something.
"Thou shall be assimilated into the heard. Resistance is futile!" And with that 5 necklace's and a big crown thingy appeard on 6 of the mare's. A dark rainbow cut through Star as she fell unconsiouce.
Star Catcher opened her eye's. Her mane had been turned into pure dark magic, and it was now black. In addition to her wings, she had a horn adorning her head. Her iris' were almost completly black, with the hint of blue it once had. Her coat was now a deep gray. Finally, her headache stopped. The ponies began to whisper exitedly amongst themselves. A dark shadow of magic rose from the floor. All 6 mares and 3 fillies bowed to it as the shadow took shape. All star's fear's came true. There, stood Nightmare moon, Discord, Chrysalis, and Sombra.
"We, are the ruler's of the dark! Thy fare Twilight, rise. Thy fare friends, rise. Thy fare crusader's, rise." That is when it click's. The element's of harmony and the cutie mark crusader's rise to there queen.
