Nightmare Moon finished her laughing and looked over the ponies. This will be so easy. Not a single one of them can stop me. She soon saw Mayor Mare getting the Solar Guards into action.
"Get here, she knows where the princess is." Said Mayor Mare
"Fools." She said
Her horn came to life and lightning started to strike from the sky. The guards didn't have time to get out of the way as they were attacked. They were pushed back and sent flying back to the ground. Rainbow wanted to attack, but Applejack kept her in place. Nightmare Moon just laughed as she looked at her foes already defeated.
"No pony can defeat me." Said Nightmare
"That's where you're wrong." Said Solar
Solar stepped forward with his blades ready. He then pointed to Nightmare Moon.
"My name is Solar Ignition Flare or Prince Solar Flare, son of Princess Celestia." Said Solar
"So my sister has a son. You don't look like a pony." Said Nightmare
"Well I am." He said
Nightmare began to laugh at him. "If you are, then you must have been some messed up experiment that my sister had being done. I knew she was desperate to have a child, but I would have never thought you would fill that void."
"Well no matter what you say, Celestia is my mother and I am her son. Now if you want to continue to attack these ponies, you will have to go through me." Said Solar
"Please, your blades don't scare me and some naked pony doesn't scare me. So if you are going to stand in my way, then I will have to finish you off." Said Nightmare
"Try." Said Solar
Nightmare's horn lite up again and she sent out bolts of lightning again. Solar raised his blades and they took the attack and slowly adsorbed the magic. When it was over he lowered his blades to show he was fine.
"How?!" Said Nightmare
"Easy, I'm not so easy to put down." Said Solar
He pointed one blade at Nightmare Moon. The blade opened up and electricity started to be charged in the middle. Nightmare Moon raised her eyebrow to him. He closed on eye and took aim.
"Reject Blast." Said Solar
A beam of orange energy shot out of the blade. Nightmare Moon quickly brought up a shield, but the energy ripped through it and Nightmare had to dodge it in the last second. She growled as she looked down at Solar. This boy is much stronger than I thought. Clearly he is my sister's son. I'm not sure how, but he is. The magic felt a lot like her's. She quickly reverted to her smoke form and began to leave. Rainbow broke loose from Applejack and flew after her.
"Solar, we need to get back to the library." Said Twilight
"Right, let's go Spike." Said Solar
"Right." Said Spike
The three ran out of the building. Rainbow was still high in the sky as she growled. She looked down at Solar, Twilight and Spike running from the Main Hall.
"Now where are they going?" Asked Rainbow
***
"Twilight you figure out a way to fight Nightmare Moon." Said Solar
"I don't seem so crazy now." Said Twilight
"Honey, this isn't the time. You find a solution and I'll get ready." Said Solar
"Alright." Said Twilight
"Spike, send Shining and Cadance a letter about our situation. Then help Twilight out." Said Solar
"Alright." Said Spike
Solar ran upstairs to the room. He pulled out one suitcase and opened it up by placing in the combo. He popped it open and looked at the contents. He then slowly remembered what his mother told a few days before Twilight, him and Spike came to Ponyville.

Flashback
"The time is close, my son." Said Celestia
It was night over Canterlot. Solar and Twilight had been back a few days from there honeymoon. They quickly announced the news that Twilight was carrying. Of course it was a big celebration. Celestia had placed them up in a tower for them. Solar had received a memo from his mother to meet her in his old room.
They stood on his balcony looking over the city of Canterlot. The night life had started to once again begin in Canterlot. Solar looked up at the moon and could see four stars slowly heading towards the moon.
"My sister and your aunt our about to return to this world. The thousand year seal is gone. So this is why I wanted to talk to you." Said Celestia
"About what mom?" Asked Solar
"Easy my son, Twilight was easily start to see the coming of Nightmare Moon. She will begin to look into it. You see, when I first meet Twilight, I knew she had a big part to play in this age of peace. I'm not sure how, but I do feel it. Now I have a plan I would like to tell you." Said Celestia
"Sure mother." Said Solar
"The Sun Celebration is coming up. I will be sending you, Spike and Twilight there. She will probably send my a letter about Nightmare Moon, but I will dismiss it. You are to protect Twilight and those who follow her from Nightmare Moon. I believe that Twilight is a key to restoring the Elements of Harmony. I want to make sure she finds herself friends. When Nightmare Moon does come, I will not put up any fight. You are to defend yourself, but not hurt or kill Nightmare Moon. If my plans goes as planned, the Elements of Harmony will return Luna and destroy Nightmare Moon." Said Celestia
"Interesting plan mother, but how do you know it will work?" Asked Solar
"I have had a strange feeling since that day, the day of the Sonic Rainboom. I'm not sure why, but it seemed to connect Twilight, you and other ponies. Though only a theory on my part. But a sound theory. Now I want you to promise me that under no circumstance, will this ever leave your lips. Even after the plan is finished, it must never leave your mouth." Said Celestia
"I prefer not to go behind my wife's back and promise something like this. But I understand and I will." Said Solar
"Then all is left is this. Open it up and see what's inside." Said Celestia
Solar took the case and opened it. He looked everything over and then back up at his mother. He closed the case and nodded. He hugged him and Solar left. Celestia looked back at the moon as the stars moved towards it.
***
Present
Well it seems your plan is in motion. Time to keep pushing it forward. I know you never said it, but I think this is also a test for me. I know you want to see if I'm ready to become an prince for Equestria and this is one of my first true tests. Solar pulled out of the suitcase, a quill and arrows with a bow. Then a set of light orange armor. Since Solar's natural magic defense protected him against server damage, this was to protect him from not taking to much damage.
He placed on a pair of arm guards and then a pair of knee guards. He placed on a pair of shoulder guards. He then pulled out a pair of heavy duty boots. He easily strapped them in.He then placed on his chest plate and back plate, attaching them to the shoulder guards and his waist. He then grabbed his quill and arrows and attached them to the back plate. He then grabbed his bow and placed it on his back. The last thing were a pair of gloves. They were specially made to handle his magic and increase its power. He clenched a fist as he got ready.
He exited the room and started down. Spike looked at him and knew that he was running off. Solar looked at Spike. He knew the drake wanted to come, but it was dangerous and only Solar had the power to fight Nightmare Moon.
"Spike I know you want to come, but this is something you can't come with. This will beyond dangerous, protecting Twilight is already hard enough, I don't want to put my brother in harms way either. Stay here and tell me if things change with Canterlot. Also, see if you can get in contact with my mother." Said Solar
"I understand Solar, be careful." Said Spike
"Don't worry about me, I always make it out." Said Solar
"That's what I'm worried about." Said Spike
Solar stepped downstairs to see Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Rarity and Applejack had arrived. Twilight was just closing a book when she looked up to see Solar in his armor. She knew that Solar was going after Nightmare Moon.
"Did anything dear?" Asked Solar
"Yes, the Elements of Harmony are a powerful set of magical artifacts that can stop Nightmare Moon. There are five known artifacts, loyalty, laughter, kindness, generosity, and honesty. But the sixth element of magic, is unknown. It can only be formed from a spark by the other five elements." Said Twilight
"Well where are the elements?" Asked Solar
"In the old castle of Celestia and Luna." Said Twilight
"So an old castle huh, anything ring a bell with any of you." Said Solar
"Well yes darling, there is an old abandoned castle. But its in the Everfree Forest." Said Rarity
"Then that's where Nightmare Moon is. She will possibly be searching out these elements herself. We need to find them first." Said Solar
"Agreed, Rarity can you show us this Everfree Forest." Said Twilight
"Sure darling, follow me." Said Rarity
The six ponies left and Solar looked back at his brother. Spike gave him a peace sign and he did the same. Spike watched as Solar ran after them. He grabbed his shirt tight. I've got a bad feeling that something is going to go wrong. I'm not sure why, but I fear for Solar's safety. I just hope he knows his limits.
***
Soon the ponies stood in front of the forest entrance. Solar could feel a dark presence coming out of it. He looked at the forest and knew it was created by a dark magic.
"The Everfree Forest, a forest that isn't normal." Said Rainbow Dash
"How so?" Asked Solar
"Partner, everything turned upside down." Said Applejack
"Yeah, they saw the forest has its own weather." Said Dash
"Not mentioning all the scary monsters." Said Fluttershy shaking in her place.
"Well thank you everypony, but I and Solar can do the rest." Said Twilight
"Nonsense Twilight darling, we can't let a friend on in alone. We are coming with you." Said Rarity
"But." Twilight stopped in her tracks as Applejack spoke up.
"No buts about it sugar cube. Were all going in together."
"That's right." Said Pinkie Pie
"Think you can protect us all, Solar." Said Twilight
"I know I can, but watch for anything suspicious. I can't see everything, so keep your eyes open. Now we go in." Said Solar
The ponies nodded and they slowly began to enter the forest with Solar leading the way. He was happy his senses were heightened because Nightmare Moon could do anything to them. He kept his eyes forward and his hands ready to go for his bow and arrows. He looked around and could feel something dark following them. She's following us, but where.
"So no pony has ever been in this forest." Said Twilight
"No, this place just doesn't exactly scream, 'inviting'." Said Rarity
"Plus like before, it ain't natural." Said Applejack
"Oh but there's more, for you see, if everypony whose entered this forest has ever returned." Said Rainbow
"Rainbow that is enough." Said Applejack
Rainbow was laughing but looked up at Solar. He touched the ground and closed his eyes. Rainbow and the girls looked at him. He then got up then the ground broke away. Rainbow and Fluttershy were able to keep to the sky. While the others slide down. Solar quickly grabbed a rock and hung there. He watched Rainbow grabbed Pinkie and Fluttershy took Rarity. He then saw Applejack grab a vine, but Twilight kept sliding.
"Twilight!" Screamed Solar
"I got her partner." Said Applejack
Solar watched as Applejack went down to Twilight. She was talking with her. Twilight looked up at Solar and he nodded to her. She gulped as he let go, but was caught by Rainbow and Fluttershy. Applejack then started to head down. Solar concentrated and teleported to Twilight. She quickly hugged him.
"What happened?" Asked Solar
"I was tellin' honest truth to Twilight. I knew Rainbow and Fluttershy would get her in time." Said Applejack
"Well I'm glad and now we continue. But we need to be careful, no doubt that was Nightmare Moon's work. Now listen all of you. Nightmare Moon is a powerful alicorn. Only I can fight her and keep at bay. So when it comes time to fight her, leave it to me and only me." Said Solar
"You think you can take her Solar." Said Twilight
"Please Twilight, my the son of Princess Celestia. Trained by the great captain Stonewall. I have a powerful magic that no alicorn or unicorn can have. No doubt I can take on Nightmare Moon. You should now Twilight, I could even kill my own mother with the power that flows through me." Said Solar
The ponies eyes went wide. They had heard that Princess Celestia was powerful, but to hear that her own son could be even more. But they settled down as they saw Twilight hug him.
"If you do, please honor your promise. I don't want to see you in the hospital again." Said Twilight
"Hey, I said that I would. Now we continue on. We might have been thrown off a little, but surely we can get there." Said Solar
The ponies nodded and continued forward. Unknown to them was that Nightmare Moon stood over them on top of the mountain. Now that is interesting. If I could turn him to the side of darkness, then he would be a great ally in my conquest of this country. I already took down my sister and I was soon have control of her son. She disappeared to ready herself for the next attack.
They kept moving forward. But soon Solar stopped and pulled his bow. He pulled an arrow from his quill. He got it ready and pointed one finger to aim. The girls looked for something. Then Solar spoke.
"I know your there Nightmare, I can feel your magic. Come out or I'll force you out." Said Solar
"Now that isn't nice." Said Nightmare
She appeared in front of them. She smiled as she looked at Solar. "Now you couldn't have let me stalk around some more."
"Not with my wife as one of your many targets. I kind expected you to get in our ways, but never in such a dangerous method." Said Solar
"Oh dangerous, your the one with the arrow pointed at me. Not mentioning you power that could let you take control of Equestria. I was wondering why you haven't taken a hold of it all. I mean you can do it." Said Nightmare
"I would rather take my own life before I took the lives of those I watch." Said Solar
"But why protect them, I mean they have nothing to compare to you." Said Nightmare
"Then I guess you don't understand who I am. I was raised by one of the most gentle and stern mothers in Equestria. She taught me right from wrong. Sometimes she would teach it in painful ways, but it was to still teach. But I also had a great father who taught me the justice of protecting those I love. So combined, I see no reason to turn my back on any of it. Not mention if I ever did, I have a plan in place." Said Solar
Twilight eyes widen. Solar has a plan if he ever turned. What plan would that be? He never told me a plan. Twilight looked over her husband. She knew that his powers came from a magic that could replicate its cells faster than magic could be stored. Solar physically could destroy Equestria and his mother before he burnt out his supply of magic.
"Well I see it will be much harder to persuade you. So I guess I'll just have to kill you then. But I still have much to do before i can take you on Solar. But do know this, I plan on taking you as mine or at least putting my sister in a deep depression she will never return from." Said Nightmare
She disappeared and an angry Manticore appeared. Solar could feel a dark energy around it. He didn't want to hurt it since, it was being controlled. He lowered his bow and place arrow into his quill. He stood looking at it.
"Hey earth to Solar, there is a Manticore in front of us. You going to get rid of it." Said Rainbow
"Rainbow, killing isn't always the answer. This Manticore isn't acting like a wild one. It is being controlled by Nightmare Moon some way. I will not slaughter something that isn't doing something on its own. That is the difference between me and those who seek to spill the blood of all. Stonewall always said that there are alternatives to fighting. This situation calls for one. I have to understand what Nightmare Moon did to it." Said Solar
"Oh please, if your not going to fight it, then I will." Said Rainbow
Rainbow flew to attack Applejack right behind her. Pinkie and Rarity followed close behind. Solar just stood and watched them fight. He knew it was under the control of Nightmare Moon. He wouldn't kill something that wasn't acting on its own merits. Twilight stood next to him. He looked up to Fluttershy.
"Your up Fluttershy." Said Solar
"Solar, that magazine was right about you. Ok, I can do this." She flew forward. Twilight looked up at Solar and was about to attack, but watched as the Manticore did nothing to her. It showed a throne it its paw. Solar smiled and walked forward. Twilight couldn't believe her eyes or actually anypony as the Manticore licked Fluttershy. Solar placed a hand on it.
"Head home and enjoy your freedom." Said Solar
The Manticore roared and rushed away. Fluttershy smiled and Rainbow couldn't believe her eyes.
"See Rainbow, there are alternatives to fighting." Said Solar
"Yes because sometimes you just have to show a little kindness." Said Fluttershy straightening out her mane.
"Now we head out." Said Solar
"Not another step Solar Ignition Flare." Said Twilight
Solar knew that only when his mother or his wife used his full legal name, it was bad news. Usually his mother scared him more than Twilight. One major reason, even though he was strong, his mother actually was physically stronger than him. He could never beat her in a arm wrestling match, he still could never understand how. But then he saw tears running down her cheeks. He knew when she used his full name, it was a sign of her sadness. She walked forward to him and slapped him hard on the cheek. The ponies looked away.
"Why didn't you tell me about this 'plan' of yours." Said Twilight.
Solar looked away from his wife. The ponies decided to head on and give Solar and Twilight the privacy they needed. Solar just rubbed the spot of his cheek where Twilight had slapped him. He stayed silent as more tears ran down Twilight's face.
"You stubborn bastard. You never tell me anything till you need to. But a 'plan' that deals with what happens when you lose control of your powers and turn against Equestria. Shouldn't that be something to tell your wife about." Said Twilight looking up at Solar
She watched as he let go of a few tears. "The reason is that I don't want to burden you with the thought that I could do harm to you or the ponies that have found me interesting. I guess I just didn't want to involve you in the 'plan' if it had to comes true."
"I'm your wife for Celestia's sake Solar. Nothing you can say will ever push me away from you. I love you with everything I have. Nothing can change the vow I gave you on our wedding night. So please tell me everything." Said Twilight
"Alright, but you swear to keep it a secret." Said Solar
"On my loving heart Solar." Said Twilight
"The plan has to options, considering which one comes first. Option one is that I use a spell to create self destruction in my cells. They will destroy everything in my body. I will die a slow death, but at least it would give me time to see you. The other is that my mother uses her old combat skills to kill me on the spot. It will be a quick death, but at least finish the job." Said Solar
"But why these plans?" Asked Twilight with more tears running down her face
"Because I don't want to hurt or kill those that look up to me. I don't want to become a monster that ponies fear. I never want to see my hands covered in the blood of so many innocent lives. No matter what the future cost might be, I must never let anything use me for their gain. My power is to used for the good of Equestria and its allies." Said Solar shedding a few more tears.
"Solar, your not ever going to be a monster. Nothing can turn you against the teachings of your mother or father. You know how to care for ponies in such a way that you would never turn against them. I just know it in my heart." Said Twilight
"Twilight." Said Solar hugging his wife.
She returned it and they stood together just embracing each other. Then they broke and wiped each others tears before moving towards the others. They took each other's hands and went to find the others. Solar knew nothing would change how Twilight looked at him. But his mind was still heavy with the though of turning against everything he watches over. May the day never come when I have to use this plan.
***
"Thanks for waiting everypony." Said Twilight
"Oh it was nothing darling. I just hope everything worked out between you two." Said Rarity
"Yeah, now we continue on our journey." Said Solar
"Well Solar darling, lead the way for us. I mean you are the strongest of us." Said Rarity
Solar led the group forward and mares behind him. Rarity decided to go over talk with Twilight.
"So darling I have to ask, between mares. Is Solar pleasing in the bedroom." Said Rarity
"Why would you ask a question like that?" Asked Twilight starting to blush
"Just the way you stare at him and his ass." Said Rarity
Twilight felt her blush increase. Ever since she found out, she was pregnant, they kept off sex. Sure Twilight enjoyed the few times they made love, but since her pregnancy, they hadn't been making any love. She kind of wished she knew a way to protect her child and have sex with him. She thought about anal, but she couldn't get by the fact that it was having sex up her ass. Sure she loved when they did oral, but she wanted the real thing.
"Well I and Solar having exactly been active since finding out I'm carrying a foal." Said Twilight
"Darling you do know there is a spell to allow you to have sex while pregnant." Said Rarity
"There is, but I searched one for days after we returned from our honeymoon." Said Twilight
"Well it's old Belle family secret. You see I have sister named Sweetie Belle. While my mother was pregnant with her, I guess she wanted more sex with my father. Well you can normal have anal sex without concern for the child, but my mother was never into a dick up her ass. So she found a spell that protects the child from the strains of sex. Think of it as a way to protect the child in sex. I can gladly give you the spell." Said Rarity
"Oh thank you Rarity, but why are you being so kind to me." Said Twilight
"That's what friends do for friends. We help each other out, plus by your look, you want a night with him. The spell will protect your child from the strains of sex, but you can't have Solar finish or you. The spell can't protect yourself if you do that much sex. But before you two reach your climax, you can have wonderful sex. The spell will protect the young one from that much." Said Rarity
"So you see as a friend." Said Twilight with her eyes lighting up
"Yes darling." Said Rarity
"Wow, I've never really had a true friend expect Solar and Spike." Said Twilight
"Well consider me a true friend." Said Rarity
"Thanks Rarity for it all. I'll talk with you later about that spell, for now we need to worry about finding the Elements of Harmony." Said Twilight
"Right darling." Said Rarity
The group kept walking forward, till the area began to grow dark. Solar stopped to look around. Once again he could feel the dark energy of Nightmare Moon in the area. He looked around for her as the ponies got close to themselves to stay safe. Then the trees began to glow and evil faces were on them. The girls screamed, but Solar stood looking back at them. He then looked over to Pinkie Pie. She was making funny faces at them and laughing.
"Pinkie are you crazy." Said Twilight
"Oh girls don't you see." Said Pinkie as she began to sing.
"Tell me she's not." Said Twilight
They watched as pinkie kept on singing her song.
"She is darling." Said Rarity
Pinkie kept singing her song. Solar just watched the pink pony sing away, then Dash came in after pinkie spoke about dealing with her fears.
"Then what is?" Asked Dash
Pinkie answered her question by singing. She then laughed at a tree and the face disappeared. Solar smiled at the girls growing close together. He laughed himself as Pinkie joined him. Then it was over as all the faces disappeared and everypony laughed together. I truly love this pink pony of energy.
After laughing they got up and began to move on. Twilight smiled as Solar took up the rear. They soon made there way to a river. But they easily couldn't cross it. Then everypony heard the sound of crying and walked forward to see a sea monster. It was purple with a two toned orange hair. He also had half a mustache as the other part was gone.
"Um...why are you crying?" Asked Twilight
"Well I was minding my own business, when this purple smoke came by. It went so fast, that the next thing I know, half my mustache is gone. Oh what a horrid thing has happened to me." He said as he came down into the water.
He easily splashed up a wave of water. Solar took a step back and watched as it drenched the girls. He then looked at his wife and the girls. Their wet manes and body were making him stare. He was married, but it didn't stop his mind and eyes at looking at other mares than his wife. Of course he looked more at his wife's wet mane and body. He felt his body start to tense up. He could easily see her lavender bra through her white shirt. He quickly turned around before he got hard. Twilight turned back to her husband.
"You ok Solar." Said Twilight
"Yeah, I'm just going to cover our backs. You never know when Nightmare Moon will go for an attack." Said Solar
Twilight raised her eyebrow to him. Well he's acting strange. He can't be scared of this sea serpent, I mean he does have some fears. But there mostly to spiders. No something else is bothering him. He looked down at her wet body and the wet bodies of the other ponies as they tried to dry themselves off. Her mind then clicked with why Solar was acting weird. Oh man, I forgot he does have a strange fetish to wet mares. I swear, he some some of the weirdest fetishes. Well I should dry everypony off before Solar gets more uncomfortable. Her horn ignited and she took everypony and quickly dried them off. She sighed as it was over.
"Solar, everything is fine again." Said Twilight
Solar turned around and sighed in happiness. The girls looked at themselves and back at Twilight.
"Why did you do that darling?" Asked Rarity
"Because Solar has a strange fetish to wet mares." Said Twilight spying her husband
"Twilight! That's private!" Said Solar
"Oh please, that isn't even your strangest fetish we have lived out." Said Twilight
"Can we just move on." Said Solar
"Right, so Mr. Sea Serpent, your crying because of your mustache." Said Applejack
"Yes, it is catastrophe." He said making another wave.
Solar brought up a shield and blocked the water. Twilight kissed him on the cheek as he lowered it.
"You can't be serious." Said Rainbow
"Darlings, this is a fashion emergency. I mean look at your beautiful scales." Said Rarity
"Oh yes." Said the serpent
"Your great quality hair." Said Rarity
"Oh yes." He said sliding his hand over his hair.
"Plus that great manicure of yours."
"Oh yes it was so perfect."
"But it all had to be thrown off by the destruction of your lovely mustache."
"Yes, I can never show my true beauty without my perfect mustache."
He laid his head on the ground and Rarity tapped her hand on her chin. She then pulled off on of his scales. She held it in her hands. Then with a quick swipe, cut off her tail. She then used her magic to mend it to the serpents broke mustache. He cheered as it was perfect again.
"Rarity your tail." Said Twilight
"Oh that, well short tails are in this year. But it is my generosity to help him that is more important than my tail. Plus it will grow back, um in time." Said Rarity
"Oh thank you, by the way I'm Steven Magnet. Now let me help you across. One generous act should be paid with another." Said Steven
"Thank you Steven darling and enjoy." Said Rarity
Steven soon created a bridge with his body. The ponies slowly made their way across to the other side. Rarity waved goodbye to Steven. Solar then looked over the six mares in front of him. Mom, I think you were onto something. I have seen four of the six Elements of Harmony in action. I wonder if this is really connected that Sonic Rainboom. Solar shrugged as they continued onward.
***
Soon enough the group had reached a deep ravine. Solar looked down to see it was a long drop to death. He looked to see the rope bridge was the only way over. Rainbow took the bridge and went over to the other side. But then a thick fog rolled over. All the ponies could do was wait and see. Then Rainbow returned, pushing away the fog.
"Rainbow your back." Said Twilight
"Yeah, I never leave my friends behind." Said Rainbow
"Well girls, were close to the end now." Said Twilight
Solar watched as the girls walked over the bridge. He could feel the darkness surround the castle. So that's where you are. Now I guess comes the real fight. Nightmare Moon, prepare to meet the power of the son of the sun. He walked forward to see Twilight trying to get the Elements of Harmony out of some spheres. But Twilight was failing at every attempt.
"I don't understand." Said Twilight
"So we did all that for nothing." Said Rainbow
"Not for nothing Dash. Twilight think about to everything that has happened on this small journey. The key to all of this is inside those memories. Now try to remember." Said Solar
But before Twilight could start to remember. There was a dark laughter and Twilight disappeared followed more dark laughter.
"What just happened?" Asked Applejack
"Easy Nightmare Moon happened. Listen girls, this is my fight. Find Twilight and help her. I'll deal with Nightmare Moon." Said Solar
"You heard him darlings, but where to look." Said Rarity
"Looks girls, that light. I think we should start there." Said Pinkie pointing to a light coming out of a tower.
"Alright, you girls go there. I'll be behind you soon. Just promise you that you will try to end Nightmare Moon in the end." Said Solar
"Alright partner, but come back in one piece." Said Applejack
"I will, now get going." Said Solar
The girls began to head towards the tower. Solar sighed as he began to head back outside.
***
Once outside, he looked around, then the world froze around him. He could feel the darkness starting to form behind him. He turned to see Nightmare Moon. She soon dropped his mother to the floor. He growled as she was beaten up badly. Mom, I guess you barely put up a fight against her.
"So you want to face me alone." Said Nightmare
"Yes, but I'm impressed you froze time. That takes a lot of magic." Said Solar
"No time isn't stopped, but slowed to an incredibly slow rate. Look at this way, we are moving faster than the world around us. But I needed to place this spell around us so that I can deal with you and your pitiful wife." Said Nightmare
"You'll pay for hurting my mother and for hurting my wife." Said Solar
"Please Solar, you won't hurt me. My body is the body of Luna, your aunt. You can't dare harm me." Said Nightmare with a laugh.
"That's where you are wrong. " Night stopped laughing. "I have magic that can easily beat you without putting to much strain on my auntie's body. But let's see who is the strongest warrior. The nightmare of the night or the prince of the sun." Said Solar
"Oh please, you can't beat me. I will easily power over you. But if you wish to continue this fight, then let's do it." Said Nightmare
Her horn came to life and a dark circle appeared on the ground. A blade came out of it. It had a dark blade with fire coming off it. The blade lead down to the skull of a pony screaming as if the blade was coming out of its mouth. She then held the handle and a dark chain started to circle around her arm.
"This stupid thing is the Nightmare Blade. A blade forged in nightmares of all ponies. It will bring your worst fear and nightmares to life. But I can easily see that I will win. You don't even have a weapon, beyond those arrows. But I won't give you time to use." Said Nightmare
"Once again, judging me before I have even done anything. Your not the only one who can summon a sword." Said Solar
Solar started to condense his magic and again started to create his great sword. He then held it over his shoulders as it finished up. He now held is Great Fire Blade. Nightmare smirked as she looked at Solar and his knew blade.
"Your fully of surprises aren't you. Now that we both have weapons, I think its time we see who the best is the queen of the night or prince of day." Said Nightmare
"Bring it Nightmare Moon." Said Solar
"Gladly, you will be mine." Said Nightmare
The two rushed each and then with a swing of each other's blades struck them together. They growled at each other as they tried to push each other back. Solar looked down at the blade Nightmare Moon was using. He could feel his fears draining into them. He leaped away to get away from the blade. He quickly started to feel weak and tired.
"Damn." Said Solar
"Ha, I guess you felt the swords affect. It takes your fears and nightmares and stores them inside. But it also slowly drains you of your power. I will be winning this fight in no time." Said Nightmare
She's got that one right. If I get to close to that blade, it will drain me. I have a bad feeling what it will do after it claims enough of my nightmare. Solar stood proud with his sword in hand. Nightmare smirked at him as she readied her blade for another attack. Soon I'll have enough of his fears and nightmares to hit him with my blades second attack. I have this fight in the bag. Nothing he can do will stop me.
Solar and Nightmare charged each other. But Solar leaped and tossed his sword over to the other side. He then started to use his magic again. I just hope this works. Maybe Twilight is right, I should stop trying new spell attacks while in battle. But it is the best time to test them. Solar started to glow around his body. Nightmare Moon slowly started to shield her eyes.
"Flaring Light." He said
He exploded out an extremely bright light. Nightmare couldn't cover her eyes from the blast. She was easily thrown off and Solar smirked as he ran forward. He started to attack her with his hand-to-hand combat. He then felt Nightmare strike him in the stomach. He grabbed it and coughed up a little blood. He then somersaulted back to his sword and pulled it out.
"Enough games with you, eat this." Her horn came to life and she then took the air. "Nightmare blasts."
She released her horn and a stream of energy headed towards Solar. But it broke off into smaller balls of energy. He grabbed his sword and again performed a new spell. But this one he had been working on with his great sword. He only hoped it worked.
"Reconfiguration: Fire Shield." He said
The sword began to form into a massive shield. Solar held it tight as the energy collide with him. He then let his sword return to normal. He placed the sword back over his shoulder. He looked down to his mom, she was still safe. He sighed as he looked back at Nightmare Moon.
"You keep interesting me. I think it is time I release my new powers on you." She said
She pointed her blade at him and it split apart. It then sent out a bolt of dark lightning. Solar took it all to his chest. He then looked up and felt his body tense up. His eyes shrank as he was in a hospital. He looked around for something to happen, but nothing. He then realized he could no longer feel his blade.
"Welcome to one of your nightmares, Solar." Said Nightmare Moon
Solar looked around and found a light. He slowly moved towards the light and found his family all crying. He walked up to them, but couldn't touch them. What the? He soon watched as the land around him transformed around him. He was now in front of another door. He then saw a doctor he had never seen before come out.
"I'm sorry my prince, we did everything we could. I'm just so sorry." Said the doctor as he faded away.
Solar could feel his body shaking with fear. He took a step forward and pushed the doors opened. Inside was an operating table. He then saw the light over it was casting a shadow for two clothed figures. He kept walking forward and hoping that his fear wasn't coming true. He slowly raised his hand towards the smallest blanket and slowly pulled it back. His body was shaking away. He then pulled back to cover to see the horror under it. It was his child only a few months old lying dead on the table. Blood covering it, he could barely make out it. He started to shake more and more with fear.
"No this can't be." Said Solar
He backed into the other table. He turned to see something standing under the covers. He backed up quickly and looked at it. he then watched it turn towards him. He couldn't believe his eyes. But then his ears to as it spoke.
"Why Solar, why did you kill me? Didn't you love me? You killed me and our child, but why?"
He backed up as blood started to spill to the floor. He couldn't believe his eyes as it all happened. He then felt something crawling on him. He looked to see his undead child. It then spoke to him.
"Daddy, why?"
Solar tossed it away and moved backwards more and more. The clothed figure slowly began to stand on the blood. Solar kept backing up and started to watch more of his undead child appear from the blood. The figure then removed the cloak to show Twilight with a hole in her stomach and all her organs inside slowly spilling out. Solar kept backing up while trying not to lose his dinner. Twilight then began to twist her head move towards the floor. Solar covered his ears as he could hear the snapping of her spin. He watched as came out of her body and out of the whole. Soon he was reaching a door. But the dead Twilight and children spoke to him.
"Why Solar, why? Why kill me with this child? Why Solar, why?" Said Twilight
Solar was speechless as Twilight's began to break apart and two more hands came out and Solar lost it. He turned around and ran for his life. He could hear the scream of Twilight and then turned to see her bust through the doors chasing him him. He quickly pushed his body to the limit to get away. But he soon watched as the area around him was falling apart. He leaped ti get away and looked back to see the Twilight nearing him. He then watched as the walls quickly started to drop his children. He kept up his running and leaping. Soon he reached a corner and quickly turned it and kept going for dear life. He then saw a door at the end of the hallway. He then heard Twilight's bloody scream. He had no time to waste and pushed his body for the exit. He could see the world around him transforming into body parts and blood dripping everywhere and his child screaming out everywhere. He covered his ears and then leaped for the door way. He smashed through the door and jumped through the last set of doors to the outside world. He then watched as the hospital started to become flesh. He then saw a massive Twilight come out of it.
"No escape from your fate Solar." Said Twilight
"I never wanted any of this. I know your just a nightmare. I know this isn't real, I know it isn't." Said Solar
"Oh I'm not real Solar, well I'm as real as you are. Now you shall pay for killing me. prepare to die Solar." Said Twilight
One of her hands quickly grabbed Solar and flung him to the sky. He screamed as he tried to break free. This isn't real, this isn't real. But Solar heard Twilight again speak to him.
"No Solar this is real."
Another hand grabbed his upper body and the one hand that hand him took his torso. He then started to feel them pull him apart. He screamed as the pain ran up his body. He tried to resist, but it was like all his powers were gone. He was just a regular pony. He then screamed out in pain as he pulled into two. But he was still living. His organs slowly fell into the hole of Twilight with his torso. His upper body was thrown to the ground. He hit it hard and began to drag himself across the ground.
"No this can't be real." Said Solar struggling for life
"Believe it Solar. Now its time to end this." Said Twilight
Solar flipped himself over and watched as the palm of a hand came over him. He breathed his last few breaths as he knew his fate was here. I'm so sorry Twilight and my child. I'm sorry mother. I'm sorry you all. I've failed my mission. He kept his eyes open as the hand rose to the sky. He then watched as it came down on him. Then with a crushing strike, blood went everywhere. Solar's head was gone and was nothing. His torso was picked up and thrown into Twilight's mouth. She then roared as Nightmare Moon began to laugh in the background.
"Living a nightmare is much worse than just imagining it. Sweet dead dreams, prince." Said Nightmare
***
"Solar wake up, please Solar wake up."
Solar's eyes slowly opened. He looked up to see Twilight. She was wearing a crown on her head with a lavender star in the middle. Celestia was next some kind of alicorn. Solar then looked over at the other mares looking at him.
"You in there Solar." Said Twilight
"I'm sorry Twilight, I failed you." Said Solar
"Solar you never failed me. Nightmare Moon placed you in a spell that forced you to live your worst nightmare. But it was all a spell." Said Twilight
"What happened?" Asked Solar
"Nightmare returned to defeat me and my friends. She tried to do the same thing to me, but I was able to stop it. Then i was able to create the sixth Element of Harmony. Our friends were the the other elements. You did exactly as you were to do." Said Twilight
Solar grabbed Twilight and held her tight. He started to cry into her shirt. He then spoke again.
"No more, I can't take it. Please no more." Said Solar
Twilight grabbed him and held him tight. She laid her head on his head. She just let him cry as she let go of a few tears of her own.
"Its alright Solar, it was just a nightmare. We'll never lose this foal and I won'y die from giving birth to it. I'm sorry you had to live through that all. So just let it all out, I'm here for you and will always be." Said Twilight
Solar just crying as Twilight calmed. Everypony around them started to tear up for the prince. They all knew Solar was strong, but this was the first time they saw him break and cry. Rarity covered her mouth, Fluttershy just looked away, Applejack covered her face, Pinkie just watched it with tears running down her face, Rainbow covered her eyes with her arms as she didn't want anypony to see, Luna turned away in shame. But Celestia walked over and hugged her son. She laid her head on her son's head.
"Its alright son, everything is fine." She said
"No more, please no more of it." Said Solar
The group just cried for the prince as they knew that something more horrible than anything they could think of happened to him. It was the first time they saw Solar break in front of them. But it was also a revaluation for them, a pony as strong as Solar can be broken down to tears.

Ok, that was kind of a strange way to end it. So yes, the two part is over. Now we will continue forward with the show and its episodes. Now I know it kind of gets weird towards the end, but I really thought about the fight between Solar and Nightmare Moon. I thought that this would make an interesting battle. Well I think it sure was. Now to clear a few things up. Everything that Solar endures leads to future events in the story, but no spoilers for it. Also, don't thumb down just because this got extremely dark, for it is tagged to be dark, at times. Now Solar will have mental damage from this, but he will come back. Like I said before, this is all for something bigger.
