A/N:i don't own the ponies, Hasbro and Faust does

Chapter 1

It was very lively today in ponyville as the princess who raise the moon during the night, was visiting ponyville today. Just outside of Sugar Cube Corner, a large group of town folks was trying to see into the store in order to see their dearest ruler but was kept back as the royal guards block their paths. Within the store, everypony was enjoying the party while Luna was speaking to the group who saved her from the darkness that took her over.

“Thank you” smiled Luna after she took a drink of her tea and continued to speak “thank you for saving me. I can never repay you for what you done. So please, ask me anything you want and I’ll try to fulfill your wishes.”

Without hesitating for a second, Rainbow Dash flew in front of Luna and quickly blurted “I WANT TO JOIN THE WONDERBOLTS!!!” in a very loud tone which made everypony in the store turn to the small group.

“Cool your jets, Dash!” ordered Applejack as she pulled Dash away from Luna face by grabbing her tail and quickly apologize for her friends manners.

Luna only smile as she said it was okay and quickly added “I'll contact the group owner and see if you can join, okay?”

Twilight and the others was exacting for Dash to go all fan girl crazy like what happen on Cloudsdale but to their surprise, Dash didn't as she shed a tear and thank Luna. Luna then turns to Rarity and asks for her wish.

“I always wanted to make a dress for your sister...so...” said Rarity as she started to flutter her eyelashes in hopes Luna will grant her wish.

Luna nodded but was a bit surprise as Rarity just shouted “YES!” in an unladylike way. Realizing what she did, Rarity quickly did damage control by saying “...ummm...thank you your highness.” as she blush in embarrassment.

Luna then went on to ask the others for their wishes but only Pinkie were the one who wanted something.

“I want to see my mom and dad again!” said Pinkie as she hop around Luna and kept speaking “and see my sisters as well! It’s been sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo (gasp*not Pinkie but me :P*)ooooooooooo long since we been together!”

“...I understand” whisper Luna as she knew how it feels to miss a family for so long.

As nightfall came, everypony at the party left and headed home. Rainbow Dash, Rarity and Pinkie will leave town in a few days as explained by Luna, who told them this before she left the store with Twilight. As Twilight and Luna walk down the dark sidewalk, they started to talk again as Luna brought up about paying them back for saving her.

“It's okay princess! I don't need anything” smiled Twilight as she face Luna as they kept walking “I have my friends and that's the greatest reward I ever got but thank you anyway.”

Luna was about to replied but until a dark roar shouted in anger, which scared both ponies. As they tried to find where the roar came from, Luna shadow stretch from its master and disappeared into Twilight shadow as Luna shadow return to normal. Suddenly, as fast it came, Twilight quickly thought of something. Almost like a voice told her too.

“...second thought, how about you send me the tomb about the four great temples of Equestria?” ask Twilight as she continued to walk with Luna.

Luna quickly remembers about the tomb and quickly asks why, which Twilight simply answered with “Research”.

“...well I can't hand that tomb to anypony but I can bend the rules for you.” said Luna as she give Twilight a smile before flying off to the night sky. Twilight was all alone now but some reason, she felt like she wasn't alone...like somepony was standing behind her and whispering something into her ear. It almost sounded like a “Thank you”.

The next few days later, Spike was caring for a sick Twilight as she fell ill after the party with Luna. Dash, Rarity and Pinkie wanted to stay in town, until she got better but Twilight quickly refuse and wanted them to go as planned. After they left on scheduled, Spike and Owlowiscious was trying to fix the library up as Twilight left it a mess after trying to find a cure for cold but in the end, she couldn't one and went to bed to sleep it off.

“...even when she sick, she can still make a mess!” said Spike as he pick up a few books.

“Who?” replied Owlowiscious as he landed on his bench pole.

“Twilight, that's who!” answered Spike as he place some books into rightful place “who do you think I was talking about?”

The pet owl answered Spike after cleaning his feathers “who!”

Spike quickly turned to the owl and quickly spoke “Whooves? You mean that doctor who hangs with Derpy in that blue phone booth? I wasn't talking about him!”

Owlowiscious simply replied with a “who?”

“Dr. Whooves!”

“Who?”

“Dr. Whooves! That's who!” shouted Spike in anger.

The owl didn't answered back which made Spike happy as he turn away from Owlowiscious but that’s when the owl said “who?” again.

“OH! ITS ON YOU LITT-” shouted Spike as he faces the owl but was quickly cut off as he heard Twilight.

“SSSSPPPPPIIIIIKKKKKKEEEEE!!!” shouted Twilight in anger as Spike and the owls fighting, woke her from her sleep “DON'T MAKE ME COME DOWN THERE!!!”

“sorrysorrysorrysorrysorry!” answered Spike as he started to clean the room even faster while Owlowiscious was helping Spike clean as he said “whowhowhowhowho!”

Twilight was able to find the strength to crack a smile as she heard Spike frustration with Owlowiscious and went back to sleep but as she slept peacefully in her bed, a dark aura appeared from the shadows and slowly reach Twilight. At that moment, it started to rain outside and with some thunder as today it was secluded by the higher ups in Cloudsdale. Soon the dark aura strike as a flash thunder appeared at that moment.

Meanwhile in the great library of Celestia castle, Luna walk down between each row of book but couldn't find the tomb she was looking for.

“Where is it?” whisper Luna as she check the last row of books in the history section.

“Need help my dear sister?”

Luna quickly jump like a scare cat as she heard her sister voice from behind. As she slowly turns around, Celestia hug her little sister and whisper into her ear.

“What are you up too, my dearest sister?” ask Celestia in a very cold but yet somehow in a warm tone.

Luna was lost for words as her big sister gave her the glare (that rivals Fluttershy's stare) as she broke off the hug. The only thing Luna could say was “...I'M LOOKING FOR THE TOMB THAT HAS THE INFORMATION ABOUT THE FOUR TEMPLES OF EQUESTRIA! DON'T BANISH ME TO THE MOON AGAIN!” cried Luna as she curl up in a ball. Celestia was surprise by this and quickly stroke her little sister mane.

“Luna, I would never do that to you (a second time). I was just wondering why you kept heading to the library these pass days. Nothing more, my dear sister.” said Celestia as she help her little sister up from the floor “now, if it’s the tomb of the four temples you are seeking, then here.”

Luna watch as Celestia summons the tomb from thin air with her magic and handed it over to her. The tomb cover had six ponies in white cloaks and in the middle was a pony but so many years of being use, the middle cover was compete worn out.

“There my sister but remembers this” said Celestia as her voice grew more serious as she kept speaking “NEVER! Let anypony use this tomb!”

“w-why is that, big s-sister?” ask Luna as she grew more scared of her sister serious tone.

Seeing and hearing her sister fear, Celestia spoke in a more warm and caring voice “It's just that if the tomb falls in the wrong hooves, our world will be DOOM!!!”.

Luna started to shake with fear as Celestia started to make spooky noise and scary faces but Celestia soon stop and laugh.

“I’m just kidding dear sister. It’s the only copy left and I don't want to anger Ms. Book Marker. You know how that battleaxe is” explain Celestia as her and Luna walk to the exit of the library.

Before Celestia could leave with her sister, a very old voice quickly shouted her name. As Celestia turn around, she could see an old light brown unicorn that had a white long hair and a cutie mark of a book mark.

“Oh! Hello Mrs. Marker. Ho-” said Celestia before she was cut off as Mrs. Marker place a log book in her face.

Luna could see her big sister blushing bright red as she read the log. Why was she blushing?

“You still didn't return the book called “101 ways to please yourse-” said Ms. Marker before Celestia put her hoof in her mouth. As Celestia face her little sister, she could see Luna hiding behind the tomb while blushing. There was a very awkward moment for both sisters, so Luna broke the awkwardness by just leaving without saying a thing. Celestia quickly turn to Ms. Marker and there were flames in her eyes.

“So I’m a battle ax!” shouted Ms. Marker.

“...oh you heard that....” replied Celestia as her anger faded and was replacing with embarrassment.

Later at ponyville, Spike and Owlowiscious finally finish cleaning the library and both of them was resting on the steps of the stairway that leads to Twilight room. Before Spike could drink some needed water, he felt something coming...a letter but this letter was big...

BURP

Puff

Bang!

AAAAAHHHHH!!!

A very old looking book came from the puff of smoke and fell on Spike toes which made him scream in great pain. Owlowiscious just laugh at this funny moment but soon stop as Spike pick up the tomb and soon notice a note in the front page.

“What's this?” whispered Spike as he read the note as it says: “Dear Twilight. Here the tomb that you wanted. I really hope this helps your research. By the way, what is your research? I hope you replied very soon. From Luna.”

Spike almost drops the book as he realizes this was from Luna herself. It was very and I do mean VERY rare to get a letter and something from her, since she doesn't really leave the castle, unless if it’s to rise the moon or visit the ones who saved her.

“TWILIGHT!” shouted Spike as he ran to her bedroom door and started to pound it as he yelled “LUNA SENT YOU A BOOK! SOMETHING ABOUT FOUR TEMPLES AN-”.

Before Spike could finish that word, he was suddenly blasted back down stairs as Twilight door open with such fury. As Spike was getting up, Owlowiscious soon felt a dark feeling as he watch Twilight as she walk down the stairs and over to Spike. The pet owl knew something was wrong with his master...VERY wrong.

“Sorry if I woke you, Twilight but Lu-” explained Spike before he was cut off again as Twilight use her magic to choke him.

“Where is it?!” demanded Twilight in a very cold voice as she increase the pressure on his throat even more.

Spike couldn't believe what was happening right now. He never knew that Twilight could get so mad before! Unable to speak, Spike pointed to the stand where Twilight always reads her books. Without saying a word, Twilight toss Spike to the wall and walk over to the stand and started reading.

“...I’m alright if you wanted to know...” snorted Spike as he stood up and walk over to Twilight.

The baby dragon could see very old writing and symbols as Twilight turn each page. The writing was in old Equestria language from days old but what really got Spike focus were the pictures. Five dark orbs as they surround a dark unicorn with red eyes. Above the unicorn head was an orb but this orb was crack and releasing a dark mist from it. Spike was going to ask Twilight about this book but Twilight quickly slam the book shut and turn to him.

“Spike!” shouted Twilight in a dark voice.

“Y-YES!” replied Spike as Twilight evil glare scared him.

“Take a letter! NOW!”

With great speed, Spike got a feather pen and a scroll and started to write down what Twilight was saying as she walk over to the window and stare off as the rain got heavy.

Dear former teacher Celestia

I here by, quit as your faithful student. Hear my words you foolish princess! I will destroy your world and this time, no one will stop me since I was the one who killed your father and mother so many years ago. Yes, it’s I. Remember when we first met on that day? Outside of the Moon temple before you sealed us into that moon. I will force you to watch your prefect world as it burns to ashes. Don't worry, I'll end your suffering after your world is gone. Now, there another reason why I’m sending you this letter! I'm giving you a chance to stop me. I'm heading to Everfree underground temple. Until we meet again, my old teacher.

From your unfaithful and former student, Twilight Sparkle

PS: say thank you to Luna for me. The tomb she gave me really did help a lot. She was always a foolish little mare. I also hope to see her again as well.

Spike was confused and shock by this letter and didn't want to send it but Twilight controls his body and against his will, she sent the letter. After the letter was sent, Twilight went to her closet and put on a black cloak that Zecora gave her a few weeks ago and walk outside.

“SPIKE!” shouted Twilight as she just stood there in the rain “LETS GO!”

Like a trained dog, Spike quickly went to her side and left to the forest. The forest known as Everfree.

***

It was pure dark. Nothing but the darkness. No light, no sounds...anything at all. Just nothing but darkness but soon a voice was heard within the darkness.

“Twilight....”

“Huh?” whispered Twilight as she just appeared within the darkness “Who's there?”

Soon the darkness faded and Twilight soon found herself in ponyville...what's left of it. All the buildings are in ruins or complete destroy while the green grass is complete burned. As Twilight look up to the gray sky, she could see the sun and the moon are scatter across the sky.

“Where am I?” thought Twilight to herself as she scan the area around her again “What happen here!?”

“Your within the darkness, Twilight Sparkle” called out a old female voice from behind.

As Twilight quickly turns around, she could see a mid-twenty female purple unicorn. This unicorn had a black mane and tail and was wearing a long black jacket, which you couldn't see her cutie mark.

“Who are you!?” demanded Twilight “...and what happen to ponyville?”

The unicorn spoke her name but some reason, Twilight couldn't hear it but she could hear what the unicorn said next as clear as day.

“You destroy this town and the whole world...there nothing left but the darkness”.
