Chapter 1: Tranzportalization

Canterlot Castle Shook with a violent impact. Inside of it, A pony, heavy built with a pure white coat and flaming mane sat looking upon five colts. A light cyan colored colt with a bloodstained coat and armor and a blade walked forward, "Lord Solaris! We have fended off most of the invaders, but they shall regenerate from their wounds before too long! We need to get you out of here and to safety."

The massive alicorn raised a hoof, "I'll hear no more of this. Now where is Dusk?" At the mention of the name, all of the ponies went.

Finally one raised voice, a fairly meek looking colt, clad in armor much like the Cyan one, "I...I think he went looking for his sister..."

Dusk Shine looked around himself. He had rescued his sister and allowed himself to be surrounded by the hundreds of changelings that buzzed and cackled around him. They twitched and their long fangs revealed themselves as the group all rushed at him. Dusk roared with might as another one of his massive magic explosions ripped apart the horde. Not for long though. He rushed past them, carrying his younger sister on his back as he made his way over the rapidly regenerating corpses of the changelings.

Fifteen minutes had passed in the hall and the others ponies had gotten restless. Lord Solaris gave an annoyed sigh, even he could not wait this long when things were so close to ending. "We shall have to go without-" At that moment the door to the throne room burst open with magical might as a violet pony walked in, bloodied and scarred. He held on his back a filly that had a white coat, and a blue mane, matted down to her by blood. Dusk Shine had arrived.

He looked at the others and rushed over to them, "Lord Solaris! My sister is gravely injured!" He nodded, and his horn lit up a brilliant sun gold as a light surrounded Gleaming Shield, healing all of her wounds. She started to raise from her brothers back...and then the bright green light surrounded her, as her fangs lengthened to daggers as she sunk her teeth down into Dusk's Neck. He let out a groan and bucked but the changeling wouldn't let go, and in turn just dug its fangs in deeper.

A massive orange pony grabbed the changeling and broke its upper and lower jaws in a quick motion with his hands. He threw it to the ground and stomped on its chest, "Where is Gleaming Shield?" He growled out.

The thing laughed as its jaw snapped back into place, "Serving a higher born master than you-you ignorant bastard!"

Dusk stepped up, his magic blazing as he looked at the changeling," WHERE IS SHE?!"

It laughed, "Probably having her body filled with the seed of my master, to be his slut-" At that the changeling let out a blood curdling scream as his body was burned to nothing.

Dusk Shine snorted, "I'm going to look for her!" he spoke and turned. The massive orange pony, AJ, stepped in his way.

"No. You aren't."

"Get out of my way AJ, or I'll make you end up like the Changeling." AJ puffed himself up, dwarfing Dusk in his shadow.

"I'm saying you are staying here. I know you want to save Shield, but you don't have a choice. We have to go." Dusk Shine held back the tears from his eyes. His little sister, just about to be married to Tempo, wherever he was, lost to the changelings and their sick desires...

Lord Solaris stomped his hoof as a massive circle formed in the center of the room. At the sound of this the door burst open once more as a young female dragon ran forward and latched onto Dusk Shines Neck and didn't let go, "They're coming!" She screamed in his ear. Solaris snorted as magic gathered in his horn and shot to the middle of the circle, carving several thousand small runes in it in a few seconds.

"Step into the circle! You need to warn Celestia before she is a victim of this!" The six nodded and stepped into the circle, and Lord Solaris charged up even more of his impressive power.

Dusk stopped and turned to him, "Come on Solaris! We can get you out of here!" Solaris merely laughed at this.

"What sort of Lord would I be if I abandoned my kingdom in its time of need?!"

Dusk Shine rushed to get out of the circle but the spell finished before he had got the chance to. With a scream he and the other five, and Spine had fallen into an odd black and pulsating tunnel that seemed to carve itself out of the fabric of reality. They had wound through several openings and crevasses, but they had ended at a bright light.

Lord Solaris gave a sigh...he had left the hope of his entire planet in the hands of those 6 courageous colts, His Courageous Colts...He smiled at this and looked as the remnants of his spell had faded into nothing. The doors had been barred by a pair of guards that had ran into the room with him. As soon as they did, it bent and exploded with a violent green light. Through the door walked a set of four creatures. An alicorn dark as night with shadows wreathing his body walked forward, as did a changeling with an even more dominating presence than a normal ones. A creature flew next to them, a beautiful pony head with goat horns twisting from it, a dragons tail and claw, and several other animals thrown into the mix. The last was unicorn with a jagged of horn resting upon her head. She had dark emerald eyes with slits in the middle, even as her shadowy figure blended into the darkness behind the four. "King Nymphalos, Eris, Queen Oscura, and last and not least, my brother, Nightterror Nebula... How good it is to see all of you as my guests in this dark time." The four looked upon the great alicorn leader with a mix of awe, hate and respect all in one single gaze.

"Well I suppose I should give you the full welcome package here!" He said as he rushed towards the four, his body turning into a meteor of light. The four roared and charge forward, becoming a comet of darkness...and then they clashed.
