Prologue: The Uprising Begins

Our story begins a long time ago in Equestria, right after the fall of Nightmare Moon. The world has faced another new threat to their existence...

In the nests of Dargoth, royal unicorn guards broke into the dragon castle. A dragon in shadows glares as they storm in. One of them snaps, "Tadaka? By order of Princess Celestia, we place you under arrest for crimes against Equestria and the Dragon Clans."

"Fools! You won't take me down so easily!" The dragon roars furiously as he attacks the guards. They dodge quickly, dodging his dark magical powers. "You killed Sindell...you both shall pay!"

The evil dragon fights off the guards but eventually, they use magical binds to hold Tadaka down. The villain roars as they take him away, the war is about to come to an end.

But not any one of them notices a purple and green dragon egg hidden in a crib...

----------

Celestia sighs as she looks at the remains of what used to be the Nests of Dargoth. Not so long ago, the war against Tadaka has ended and his army is either imprisoned in the void between realities or killed. But the good dragons who lived here has paid a price, and whoever wasn't killed in the war was wiped out by Ursas who rampage through here.

"I should've helped them escape when I have the chance." Celestia mumbles as she flew over to the castle. "Nothing much remains here but..."

Celestia stops as she winds up in a nursery...and saw something: a purple and green dragon egg in a crib. She uses her magic to lift it up, serving the egg itself carefully.

"This must be Tadaka's son...and Lorcan's brother." Celestia said in concern, recalling another dragon whose is still on the loose and is out for revenge probably. "I must send an inquiry to the Clan heads. King Spykoran the Old should know about this...the egg and the dragon within must have a better life and away from Lorcan's paws."

With that, Celestia flies up with the egg in tow. The one who lives in the egg has a future waiting for him...

------------

Present Day

Run, Twilight, run!" A young voice cries out as a young filly known as Twilight Sparkle runs away. She looks back in terror as the one who spoke follows her but was grabbed by a mysterious attacker.

"Foolish colt; you cannot run from me." An evil voice hisses evilly. Twilight can watch in horror as the one who spoke raises a claw and stabs the one who told her to run.

"Starlight, no," Twilight screams in terror as she can see blood on the floor. "NOOOO...."

---------

"NOOOO!" Twilight screams as she woke up, sweating a bit. The mare groans in her bed in the library. "Not that dream again."

"Hey, Twilight, what's wrong?" A familiar voice spoke up. Twilight turns to see Spike, her friend, brother and assistant, at her bedside, looking worried. Ben Mare, her true love, was in his bed, looking worried. "Are you having that nightmare?"

"I thought it was done once I got home." Ben said with a concerned sigh.

"No, it's not that, it's..." Twilight sighs a bit, glancing at her daughter Nyx who is sleeping in her own bed, Phobos, the alicorn filly's pet dragon and best friend, is near her sleeping as if like a watch dog. "Just another nightmare; Just another..."

"It's okay, Twilight, we're here." Spike said as he hugs Twilight. Ben came over to nuzzle his true love.

"Right, we aren't going anywhere anytime soon." Ben said in soft comfort.

Twilight looks at Ben and Spike, sighing a bit. If only that is so simple...

------------

At Canterlot castle gardens, a unicorn guard was in front of the statue that was once Discord, keeping an eye out and making sure that no pony causes chaos or make any fights. After what happened the last time, Celestia doesn't want any repeats.

The guard felt a cold shiver as he notices some sort of presence, making him stand his guard and snap, "Who's there?"

Evil laughter is heard as the guard gasps as a hooded figure appears, asking, "Remember me?" That's the last thing that the unicorn saw before blood fills his POV.

The guard's body fell to the ground as the hooded figure turns to Discord, nodding as he fires some sort of blast at him. Soon the statue begins to crack and it fell apart...and freeing the evil one within.

"Oh, ouch, what," Discord ask confused while looking around. "Oh, I'm freed again. Thank goodness, so who am I to thank this time?"

"That would be me, Discord. I have freed you for a chance...a chance to get revenge and payback on the ponies whoseee did this to you."

"Oh really? And why should I help you?"

"Let's say that we have a connection more than you think and..." The hooded figure flew up and blast Discord down to the ground, much to the evil chimera's surprise. His attacker hold him down while continuing, "I can do that if you even say no. Trust me; you don't wanna mess with me."

"Hmmm, well, you got my attention," Discord said, amused than upset.

-----------

Celestia wakes up, a noise is heard in her room as she looks around...and saw something written in blood, much to her horror: 'I HAVE RETURNED'.

"No..." Celestia mumbles in fear. She was afraid of this. The alicorn must inform her sister, Golden Heart, Shining, etc. at once!

----------------

In the castle of what was once belonged to Nyx AKA Nightmare Moon, the hooded figure glances as Discord joins the other members, most of them are in cloaks.

"Welcome, members of the Brotherhood of Tadaka." The hooded figure said sinisterly. "Soon, everything will pay off and..."

"Hey, boss!" A familiar griffin voice snaps at the figure impatiently. "Can we take these hoods off now? I'm getting tired."

"....Fine, I supposed we're done playing 'mysterious ones' now."

The figures remove their hoods revealing them to be Trixie Lulamoon (the same unicorn whom once lied and boast about her exploits before the humiliation in Ponyville), Rainbow's former friend Gilda the Griffin, Film-Flam the unicorn brothers who tried to run the Apples out of business, the Diamond Dogs, and Boris the Red Devil, along with his goons Boxco and Dum-Dum.

"My, this is an interesting group you resembled here." Discord said in amusement.

"Indeed, coming across them was too easy. I send Boris to recruit his goons and Trixie to recruit the Diamond Dogs. Of course, for Gilda, I met her a while I was...'hunting in Cloudsdale'." The hooded figure chuckles evilly. "I recruit the Film-Flam brothers during one of their demonstrations gone wrong; And Trixie? Well, need I say more?"

"Right, need no more." Trixie said delightfully while nuzzling the hooded figure.

"So how are we going to do this?" Film asks the hooded figure.

"Simply put: you help me, I will give you what you want." The hooded figure said to the group. "But that means one thing: taking out the ones who defeated ya and humiliated ya."

"Right, I still remember when Rainbow kicked me in the shins." Gilda groans angrily, recalling when Rainbow kicked her in the shins.

"And she hit us with a golden record!" Flam exclaims angrily and annoyed, removing his hat to show some bruises. "And I still got the bruises to prove it."

"And we got burned when she tricked us into that hot tub of lava." Rover groans as he and his Diamond Dogs pal looks embarrassed. "The memories...the bad memories..."

"Well, you cannot let your enemies get to you like that." The hooded figure said gently. "I would've gave you those fillies wrapped up and you would mess it up if need be."

"You know, it's not like them ponies are alone, Lorcan." Boxco stated off in mentioning how their foes aren't the only ones that they have to deal with.

"Yeah, what do you want us to do? Kill the Princesses?" Dum-Dum shrug off in remarking of what else they gotta do, kill off Equestria's Rulers, like that'll happen.

However, Lorcan's serious face turned into a sneaky sinister smile as he leans forward to speak these words out. "Precisely..." From the hissing tone of his voice, it's as if that's the plan they'll have to do in order to gain control and take out their enemies. Lorcan and Discord fires blasts at the minions, sending them all into a pile of bones.

"So make sure you're prepared!" Lorcan shouted out in a prideful declarement before ceasing to look down at the other members he & Discord launched into a bones stack.

Soon the members of the Brotherhood popped out of the rack of pile bones mess, each one had on their head was from a dead animal's remains that covered their faces or their top heads like hats.

"Discord; You sneak!" Gilda snapped to wave her talon at the creep for pushing them off like that.

"Why did you do that?" Trixie demanded to know the answer and it better be a good one.

"Hello! I'm the God of Chaos and Disharmony, wasn't that obvious?" Discord shrug off in stating clearly that he does things like that for a living.

"He makes a valid point." Flim shrug off his shoulders in believing Discord made a solid lead there.

"We can't argue with his natural side." Flam spoke in also agreeing with how his brother thought of the same thing.

"Ugh, I'm surrounded by more ignorance than I can stand." Boris groans to slap the bones off his head in not believing this mess.

"Look on the bright side boss." Boxco spoke from wearing a goat's skull over his face to say a positive statement.

"We were prepared to a nice landing." Dum-Dum stated out the brighter side of where they fell wasn't as bad while wearing an antler's skull antler's on his head.

"Auugh," Boris groans once more that he have to get an answer, this was silly.

It was at this time, the Diamond Dogs heard that and remembered Lorcan's statement on being prepared.

"Yes, be prepared!" Rover exclaimed out to look at the others in knowing about that meaning.

"Yeah-heh… we'll be prepared, heh." Spot laughed off with a silly face in knowing that they'll be prepared for anything that comes their way.

But one Diamond Dog from the group seemed puzzled, as there was something troubling him, "For what?" Fido looked up to Lorcan in liking an answer to the question in what they must 'prepare' for.

"For the death of the rulers," Lorcan stood up on a balcony edge in declaring out in a serious decree tone, the end coming for Equestria's rulers: Celestia & Luna.

"Why? Are they sick?" Boxco levitated up to where Lorcan stood to ask puzzled in hearing this news about the Pony Princesses about to die.

"How Luna & Celestia catch it?" Dum Dum flew up next to Boxco by his wings in also asking a dumbfound question in how either princess caught something that could kill them.

Lorcan responded to the two dumb minions of Boris by their necks to lift them up to his hidden face, "No, fools. We're going to kill them." Lorcan held Boxco & Dum Dum who made sheepish smiles before the villain while he remarked off in what he was rephrasing before, "And the Mane Six too." Lorcan smirked wickedly vile in looking away in stating who 'else' they are going to kill.

By then, Lorcan releases his hold on Boxco and Dum Dum to fall and break more bones on the ground on impact.

"Do what you want with the others, but I want Twilight alive!" Boris snapped off in reminding Lorcan that he wants to deal with the mare that was never claim to be his prize a lesson. "I'll take in great pleasure seeing her beg for mercy to those she loves before I kill off Ben Mare!" The Red Devil Pony exclaimed with a sneaky smirk in torturing Twilight through the ones she loves most as payback, especially the rival of his in her hoof for love; Ben Mare

"I'm only allowing you the honor of tormenting her for what SHE and her daughter did to me during the Ursa Minor incident." Trixie stated out in feeling annoyed in remembering how that purple unicorn ruined her image during that time Snips and Snail wanted her to prove she as not lying, only to be upstaged.

"And I'll have a heck of a time with Rainbow Dash. She may not be fast for long…before I tear her wings off severely!" Gilda declared from grasping her talon in her left side in describing what she'll do to her former friend. "And as for that pink brat pal of hers, maybe I'll see how she likes flying…in a volcano! Hahahah," She laugh it off in just imagining how scared Pinkie Pie would be if she was in a situation like that.

"A little payment to Applejack and the rest of her so-called family…" Flim spoke off firstly in looking to his brother in knowing what was on their mind.

"Will be best served as the sweetest payback ever, dear brother," Flam finished off with both brothers smirking to the other in making Applejack & her family pay for what they did by ruining their apple cashing plot.

"I guess that leaves us with Fluttershy." Dum Dum shrugs off in seeing they got no one else left to mess with since the others have their own scores to settle with.

"Since the Diamond Dogs called in making Rarity their target of payback." Boxco stated in seeing how Rarity outsmarted the dogs and they want payback.

"My, my, I never would have played along with others, but the way this creature thinks, I'm tricky enough to NOT play along." Discord smiled in a wicked sense in loving how Lorcan was working this out, it's pure genius. "Hahaha, it's almost like I'm the sane one compared to him!" The God of Chaos added of in seeing 'someone' more chaotic than him is around and that's freaky enough to go over the sane charts.

"Great idea, Lorcan," Rover stated with a smile in looking to his Diamond Dog band in liking how Lorcan's plan was perfect, get rid of the rulers and Mane Six all in one.

"Yes, indeed!" Spot nods with the others in liking this all the more himself.

"Who needs a ruler?" Fido exclaimed with a smile in thinking, they don't need a ruler, well, ruling over them, why ever for.

"No king! La-la-la-la-laa-laa," The Diamond Dogs were dancing around with oddly enough, Boxco and Dum Dum joining in this dancing around the other members in this sing-song voices. This pretty much made the more sensible members of the Brotherhood groan at watching this foolish act.

"IDIOTS," Lorcan snapped down in a vicious tone below at the others foolishly making such statements without knowing more to his plan. "There will 'BE' a ruler!" The villain stood himself up in declaring out that there 'will' indeed, be a ruler, just not the Pony Sisters of course.

"Come again now?" Flim asked a bit awkward that Lorcan said this which left many of the others puzzled and lost by the matter.

"Hey, but you said, uh…" Flam was pointing out in confusion to begin something until…he was cut from finishing.

"I will be the ruler!" Lorcan bellowed out in a roaring tone in announcing that 'HE' shall become the ruler instead of Celestia & Luna, which made a sly smirk appear on his expression. "Stick with me…" The villain exclaimed out in how if the Brotherhood of Tadaka sticks with him something 'good will come out of this for the members. "And you'll rule this world…ETERNALLY!" Soon Lorcan stood up on the edge balcony where light mysteriously came up above him and showing a large symbol of 'Tadaka' above him while making this dramatic announcement. He had declared out a revolution/rebellion declaration that if his followers serve him in his quest, they shall gain a reward unlike any they've seen before.

"Ohhhohhhh….I can perform Chaos and Disharmony all I ever dreamed of." Discord cheered off in loving this, Lorcan may just be a villain after his own heart…if he had one.

"At last, I'll finally be the Great & Powerful I was meant to be!" Trixie smirked in loving this with a sly smirk across her face in hearing this.

"And we'll make a profit with owning everything to making a fortune!" The Flim-Flam Brothers stated out in union that when they rule, the two get so much profit, they'll not know how to spend it all.

"Hugh, maybe I'll start my own Elites to outshine Dash's Wonderbolts? I'm thinking, GriffinBolts, as a much cooler ring and only the best griffins can join!" Gilda exclaimed out with a grin in rubbing her chin in thinking of making the coolest squad of all to outshine even Rainbow Dash's Wonderbolts, plus if that pony wanted to join just to be cool again, tough luck.

"At last, victory within our grasp," Boris smirked evilly in liking this all the better; at last, they'll come out on top of things now.

"Yeah, it's in our laps!" Dum Dum repeated his boss' claims while unaware of what he said was a mistake.

"No, no, he said grasp!" Boxco corrected his partner, much to Boris's annoyance that one minion might have gotten smart-wise, but the other is still a dunce.

Then from around the flooring was showing yellow steam mist as the Diamond Dog trio leaders began to show off their expressions to the news of Lorcan becoming the new ruler.

"Yaay," Fido cheered with a smile in liking hoe Lorcan thought this out was even more genius.

"All right," Spot exclaimed out in loving this news all the more like the other members of the dog trio.

"YES! Long live the ruler!" Rover exclaimed and declared out with his paws pump out to send this signal off somewhere.

Then from the shadows from behind the other members of the Brotherhood of Tadaka, were revealing from all their surroundings, were more Diamond Dogs dressed in soldier getup armors and wielding spears.

"Long live the ruler!" The hidden Diamond Dog soldiers chatted out in agreement in joining their leader trio in following the Brotherhood by Rover, Spot and Fido's decision. "Long live the ruler!" From right to left, more of the Hidden Diamond Dog Soldiers were light up from the room being yellow. Many would wonder, how they never noticed the extras, but then again, Diamond Dogs dig so they must have popped in from when they heard the plan and if their leaders are going along, so are they

"He-he-he-he-he!" Then there was snickering & giggling laughter from the dogs before yellow flames covered up the view. Then it wasn't long before the song began again with this time, the rest of the Diamond Dog soldier colony were doing it now.

"Gehahahahahahah-Ahahahahaaaahhh…." Soon Lorcan was heard making an echoy cackle laughter of evil of sinister tone from the distance of where any can hear him in the canyon.

"Waaaaugh-hahahahah-Waugh-hahahahaah…." Soon a lot of the Brotherhood & Diamond Dog soldiers were joining in the laughing matter of this evil plan. Soon the geysers light faded away while we zoom away from the scene of a plan in motion to end the Royal Pony Sisters: Celestia & Luna and spill the end for the Mane Six.

This scene would spell trouble if this plot was kept in secret. But from afar in the darken night, watching from behind the shadows, was Golden Heart. He was on his way to Canterlot but took notice of an act and hid to watch it all, and boy was it surprising to see from dark plots to a song act.

"This might spell trouble, I have to get to Canlerlot & warn the others," Golden Heart exclaimed, and just as he hid away and was about to open his wings to take flight and starting his magic for a spell when…"But wait!" He ceased both actions in rethinking his act before doing something reckless. "If I take off now with wings, the noise could be caught by anyone with good hearing! Or even try to teleport with magic…any powerful magic sensors like Lorcan, Discord, even Boris, if he's learnt how, might be aware of me!" Golden Heart has to plan things out better, he was in enemy territory, so one wrong act could give his position away and he'll never get to where his destination is. "Hugh, to ensure that I'm not discovered, I'll have to first get away by stealth ground work." The alicorn sighed in admitting he'll have to narrow his escape, and do so quietly and slowly without making much noise. "Hang on everyone, I'm on my way." Golden Heart silently whispered to himself before beginning his stealth work in escaping Lorcan and enemy territory to get to Celestia & Luna, along with any ponies in need of aid. The problem thought, is time, and judging how much magic is sense that belongs to Lorcan, he'll have to get further away before in a safe zone to quicken the paste.

-------------------

At this time, back at Canterlot during the night, Celestia looked from her balcony in usually, seeing her sister's work in the night. But her attention was taken by something afar as she used her telescope to look further into the distance and spotted….a new pillar rising from a canyon area. The problem was, there was felt of much powerful and magical activity there, and not the good kind.

"Sister," Celestia's thoughts were broken, by her sister Luna flying from above to join her. "What is troubling you?" Luna asked cautiously in noticing how her elder sister was behaving…disturbed.

"I'm afraid he's starting to become more active now, Luna." Celestia looked away in sadly stating the unfortunate event is approaching them.

"You mean…Lorcan?" Luna held her left hoof to her mouth in gasping to image what her sister was meaning, the fearful enemy they were watching his movements…are growing more active than usual which means a state of his rising to threaten their kingdom.

"Yes, take a look!" Celestia moved away for Luna to look through her telescope in noticing the area she was investigating. "A new pillar has risen from the canyons closer to near dragon territory. And it's not of natural causes, but from magic, also…" The princess of the sun was stating that this event was not by nature's doing, some 'other' force was behind it and a very powerful one too.

"Also…?" Luna raised her left eye in hearing what else her sister had to say that was knowing of the enemy's movements.

"There were sounds from afar…" Celestia looked on with a straight face in about to state the other sign of knowing the enemy movement was… "Of distant singing," The elder sister responded with such a straight and humble statement, but for some reason, it was still…a surprise announcement.

"Singing, dear sister," Luna responded a bit taken back, why would Celestia say that it's from hearing someone singing, that it could spell trouble for the sisters and their kingdom.

"It's another thing, Luna." Celestia spoke off in what she still had to say was something to be understood. "Whenever villains sing their own song, it usual means they plot on striking and bringing an end to all creatures caught by their act." The princess looked at the floor with a sorrow and serious expression that whenever a song is heard, emotions and expressions can be made into signals, and Lorcan has just sent one out…or was it be purpose, none can truly say.

"Oh my, then it is serious!" Luna gasped again in surprise shock; this must be something to be cautious of.

"Gather the guards and prepare to inform them of our counterattack of a possible invasion." Celestia issued out to her sister to prepare for the worst, they need to be ready for any attack. "Afterwards, try to catch up with me after I've explained the situation to our citizens and have told Shinning Armor to follow you to Ponyville." Celestia stated in what she needs her sister to also do, follow her to Ponyville with Twilight's brother with something in preparing for any case f the matter.

"Yes sister!" Luna nods before taking flight to announce this news to every available guard in the castle.

"Golden Heart, my sister and I will try to do all we can…but I truly wish you get here soon." Celestia muffled under her breath while looking out to the distance of Canterlot to that of Ponyville and Cloudsdale in view. The princess of the sun could really use the help of her old friend, because she and Luna may have a tough battle ahead of them.
