Darkus was soon on the ground, gasping for air as the blows he received from Princess Twilight began to take it's toil on the dragon, but Twilight herself has worn out all of her magic reserves. Skyress and the others were able to fend off any insurrectionists that were in the area and only one remained in the same place as before.

"What are you doing you imbecile?! Kill those insects!!" Darkus roared with rage.

"No," The hooded figure said loudly for everyone to hear. They were all surprised, but Darkus was surprised the most.

"What did you say?" Darkus asked.

"You have done nothing but disgrace to our true master Albino and we can no longer serve you because you are Weak! Pathetic! And a disgrace to all dragon kind!! You'll never be like you father!" He said as he took flight leaving the young prince alone with his enemies.

"You coward!!! Fine than I'll destroy you myself!!" He shouted with anger as flames spewed from his mouth. Darkus poured all the energy he could muster into a final attack. "You and this pathetic village can perish together!!! DIE!!!"

"Everyone get down now!!! I'll try to stop it!!!" Skyress shouted to the others as she took a stance prepared to block it, only for it to collide with a blue sphere of energy, absorbing the attack, creating a blinding light.

Twilight took a good look at the sphere and instantly recognized Who it actually was.

"MIDNIGHT!!!" She shouted with joy.

"Hey guys sorry we're late....hehehehe," He said sheepishly.

"WHAT!!! Another one, fine than I'll just have to obliterate you as well you...."

"Be careful about what you say next Darkus.....after all you wouldn't want to make me or Nova mad!!" Midnight said as his expression turned into pure hatred for the black dragon.

"Why you worm!!" he said with malice.

"You know Darkus when you had your battle with this worlds Nova I would have guess you'd try to change your ways," When Darkus heard that voice he instantly froze in place as he turned only his head in the Direction of where it was coming from. "I guess I'll have to remind you of who is really in charge here."

What stood before him was none other than the hybrid himself, Nova Flame.

"Nova....." Darkus began to back away slowly only for Midnight to cast a knock out spell on him. Darkus could only fall to the ground as true terror took hold of his heart as fell into a nightmarish slumber.

"He'll never learn," Nova said with as he turned towards Midnight with a smile. "Well looks like your plan worked Midnight, didn't think he would freeze in fear at the sight of me. Am I really that scary?"

"No, but I had a feeling that after you battle with him, had probably scarred him for life," Midnight said as he rubbed the back of his head. He never thought his plan would work.

Twilight soon tackled Midnight to the ground as she smothered him with kisses, causing everypony to laugh.

"I thought I wasn't going to see you again," Twilight said as tears streamed down her face as Midnight gave her a light kiss on her cheek.

"Twilight I wasn't planning on leaving you or the others,"

"Oh come on did you honestly think I was going kill the guy?" Twilight only gave a sheepish look at Nova as his eyes widen in shock and disappointment. "Seriously after everything I said to you at the train station you still think I was going to kill him? Don't you know how much bull this is?

"Give it up Nova? It's best to just let it go," Skyress said as she patted him on his back.

"So wait who won?" Rainbow Dash asked. Nova and Midnight only gave her a confused expression.

"I think she means your fight? Who won?" Soarin asked.

"It's a Draw," Midnight and Nova said simultaneously.

"Allow me to explain," Nova said.

The battle only raged on as both Midnight and Nova kept exchanging blows. Neither of them were planning on giving up, and Midnight was determined to prove to Nova that he isn't some push over. He soon began channel magic from his horn into a final attack.

"I grow tired of this battle Midnight. I believe it is time we finished this!!" Nova shouted a large orb of energy formed above him.

"I couldn't agree more!!!" Midnight shouted as he fired a massive magic beam as it collided with Nova's ultimate attack.

"THIS ENDS NOW!!!" They both shouted as they pushed all of there energy into their attacks. Soon a blinding flash of light from both beams exploded, causing both Midnight and Nova to fall to the ground. Nova soon reverted back into his pony form as well as Midnight as they both gasped as they inhaled fresh air.

"Not bad Midnight.....I guess this world has a chance to survive as well,"

"What do you mean? This world?" Midnight asked.

"Well I guess I should start by telling you the truth. One I'm not your worlds Nova Flame,"

"What?!"

"That's right I'm not from your universe, but from another reality. You see I'm on a mission,"

"A Mission?" Midnight was interested in Nova's story that he couldn't help but just listen.

"Let's just say that I'm trying to find someone very important to me," Nova said as he helped Midnight to his hooves. Midnight for his part was a bit confused.

"Wait a minute, you said at the beginning of all of this that our destiny would be decided by this battle? Is that a lie too?" Midnight asked as he flared his wings in frustration.

"No your destiny is to be decided with your Nova, but our destiny will appear sometime in the future my friend. With Insight I can see into the future and your Nova will have to make a choice to help or to leave you and your friends behind. But I have a feeling that you can help him make the correct choice," Nova said with confidence.

"Are you sure I can do it?" Midnight asked.

"Hehehehe....I know so Midnight," He said.

"Um...hey Nova? Who are you looking for exactly?" Midnight asked.

"Well....I'm looking for....my Luna," Nova said with a smile.

"What?" Was all Midnight could ask. He became confused since he did somewhat have some history with Luna. But the question was which Luna?

"I take it your confused. My Luna from my universe is close to my age, we both knew each other for a while and I'll say that she was stubborn and she had quite the temper. But she was sweet and attractive, but one day she discovered something that she refuses to tell me and vanished. The only lead I had was that she used a dimension spell and traveled through it. When I used it I could only travel through one universe at a time, considering I'm a pegasus. Yet every reality I enter I find a different Luna, who was the same but different," Nova explained.

"And let me guess, you flirted with every single one of them?" Midnight said jokingly.

"Actually yes I did," Nova said casually.

"I only said that as a joke. I didn't think you actually did that," Midnight said as he fell to the ground laughing. Nova only rolled his eyes in amusement.

"We should probably get going Midnight. After all you do have a wife to get back to don't ya?" Nova said with a smirk, and Midnight could only gawk at him as his began to turn a deep shade of red.

"She's not my wife!!! Not yet....at least," Midnight said.

"I take it you were going to propose to her?" Nova asked, already knowing the answer. Midnight only nodded in response. "Well take my advice don't wait too long, otherwise your going to regret it. Believe me I know."

"Hey do you think you could keep this a secret between the two of us? I don't want Twilight to know yet?" Midnight asked.

"Certainly, but remember don't wait too long otherwise your going to regret it? Believe me,"

"Wait you....were going to propose to her? To Luna I mean?" Midnight asked.

"I was.....We should get going Midnight after all I sense something's wrong and we should take care of it immediately," With all said and done, both Midnight and Nova left without another word.

When Nova finished all of them were confused except for Midnight.

"Well that was the shortest story I've ever heard," Rainbow dash said.

"Well I would give you more details about what happened after our fight, but somethings are best kept secret, but believe me you'll find out sooner or later," Nova said as he winked at both Midnight and Twilight.

Twilight only looked confused while Midnight gave a nervous chuckle.

"So what do you plan to do with this ruffian?" Blueblood asked as he pointed at Darkus.

"Well you can take him to the Saddle Arabian prison, and the guards can help neutralize his powers, Icebeam and me on the other hand have to leave soon," Nova said as his sister hopped onto his back.

"Why are you leaving?" Twilight asked.

"As I said there's somepony important I've been searching for and we can't stay any longer, but I can promise we'll meet again, hopefully on better circumstances instead of a fulfilling some prophecy," He said.

"He isn't going anywhere just yet," Prince Sombra called as he landed with both Princess Celestia and Luna.

"You still have a lot to answer Nova!!!" Luna said with rage.

"Luna I know your angry, but please find your happy place..hehehehe......" Nova tried to explain, but Luna used her magic to grab him by the ear and yanked on it full force. "OW!!! LETGOLETGOLETGOLETGO!!!!!!"

"Hi Luna!" Icebeam said cheerfully.

"Luna I think your being to harsh on him?" Celestia asked.

"Even so he must be punished for leaving without saying goodbye to me!!!" Luna at this point was beyond reasoning as she had him in a headlock while yanking on his winds with her magic.

"OKAY YOU WIN!!! I'M SORRY, PLEASE LET GO!!!" Nova begged.

Luna was still unsure, but she released him and Nova quickly hid behind his sister.

"Okay I can stay to answer some questions, but please let me explain our situation?" Nova asked. Everypony including Luna nodded in agreement.

"Alright now where do I begin?"

Nova explained about where he was really from and about his mission in search of his Luna, most of them couldn't believe what they heard, but they could tell he wasn't lying.

"So you've been looking all this time for your Luna?" Celestia asked.

"Yes I've been search for who knows how long? My abilities to travel between dimensions comes from my fathers side and it's difficult to tell time. Somehow our Luna managed to have found a way to travel the same way I can. I don't know why she left, but I know I can find her. I'm sorry that I lied to you Luna. Can you forgive me?" Nova asked her. Luna for her part was hurt but she knew that his intentions were pure and he was trying to find comfort again.

"I understand Nova that I resemble your lover and I do forgive you even if you lied about it," She said sincerely. "But that doesn't mean I've forgotten what you did."

"I'll make it up to you, I promise!"

"I've been meaning to ask you this Nova, but who is your father?" Sombra asked.

"My father was known as Flare Blitz and he was the greatest warrior that had ever lived in existence, although...." Nova paused as he was in deep thought once again. "Uh...never mind anything else you want to know?"

"Yes does your Luna have a sister? Surely she could have stopped her for leaving?" Celestia asked.

"I actually agree with the princess. Don't you have a Celestia in your world?" Midnight asked. Soon everypony began asking the same thing. It began to irritate Nova just a bit.

"She never had a sister!" Nova blurted out and immediately covered his mouth. Everypony was in complete silence.

"What?" Twilight asked. Her own reality began to crash down as she tried to process what Nova had just said. "You mean to tell me that there's a Luna, but there isn't a Celestia?!"

"Look I've known Luna for years and if she actually had a sister I would have met her!! Trust me she's an only child!!" Nova yelled.

"Sorry," Twilight said.

"My point being is that even if there was another Celestia I doubt she could have made difference. If you knew who my Luna was, than you would know that once she's made up her mind, than there's no stopping her. Believe me, I've tried," Nova said casually.

"She sounds just like a certain Princess here," Celestia said slyly, causing Luna to glare at her.

"Well that's how she is and that's what makes her attractive," Nova said with a grin. Luna for her part began to blush from embarrassment.

"You have weird taste in women Nova," Midnight said only for Luna to hit him on the head with a rock. "OW!!"

"Hehehe...I could say the same for you the rest of you? But I think Icebeam and I need to get going now.

"Will we see you again?" Midnight asked.

"Well probably, but just remember that you'll be meeting your Nova very soon and let me say he's a lot stronger than me and has quite the temper, but I have a feeling you can change that Midnight as well as you Luna," Nova said as he summoned another portal and carried his sleepy sister on his back once more and began to enter it.

"Good luck finding her Nova!!" Midnight said with a salute.

"Thanks and good luck with that THING you said you were going to do!!" Nova said with a final chuckle as he and his sister vanished in a flash of light.

"What was he talking about?" Twilight asked.

"Just something I plan to do in the future, nothing too important...hehehehehe......" Midnight said.

"Midnight?"

"I promise I'll tell you soon Twilight I promise," Midnight said as he hugged the love of his life and smiled at the night sky. Seeing a bright future ahead of them.
