Dark Nebula scratched his beared and ruffled his wings sitting down placing the headset back on his head and adjusting the microphone. Yawning he asked Octavia,

"You ready for this interview?" Octavia smiled and respounded

"When ever you are." Turning his attention to the producer he nodded. The producer replied with a shake of his head then began the count down. Within the seconds the On Air sign lit up with a flash and Dark Nebula went to work.

"Hello ponies of Equestria this E.B.S news coming to you live from the heart of Manehatten and this is Dark Nebula coming at you with a flash. And oh my Clestia cant I say that this is such a gorgous night we got here Ladies and Gentlecolts. Its amazing on how Princess Luna can keep up with her job." Dark chuckled. "I just love the night don't you? Thats actually one of the reasons why I signed up for the night shift. It's nice and cool out the air is nice and its just so quiet... Well its not so quiet back here in the studio but I bet you catch my drift." Dark laughed. "Well anyways folks I just got a say guess who I ran into a few hours back on my way home from the store. I ran into one of Equestria's most famous Cello players of all time... You guess it the one and only Octavia the most wonderful Cellist player I ever heard."

"Aw. You flatter me Nebula." She said with a smile.

"Your welcome Octavia." Dark said leaning back in his chair reaching for his coffee. After taking a sip Nebula leaned in. "So I got a question that I want to ask you that the aduience might also be dying to know."

"And whats that?" Octavia asked she too taking a gentle sip of her coffee.

"Your Cutie Mark?" He asked. Octavia raised an eyebrow.

"What about it?" she asked.

"Well if you play the the Cello please correct me on this because I'm not all that smart when it comes to music." She laughed at that. "But last I heared the Cello is a bass instrument yet your Cutie Mark resembles a Treble Cleff but you don't play a Treble Cleff istrument." Octavia leaned foward in her seat.

"Well first off Dark for not being smart with music you sure know alot about it. Also my Cutie Mark is just a symbol that represents that I'm good with music. Just because it's Treble Cleff doen't mean I have to play a Treble Cleff instrument." Dark nodded his head at the reply.

"I see where you're getting at here. So I got another question so two years ago back at the Grand Galloping Gala what happend to you after the 'Incident'...

Twilight sighed and stepped back from her telescope.

"Spike could you please turn that Celestia forsaken radio off or at least turn it down. Ever since you convinced me to buy you that thing you never been able to tear yourself away from it." Twilight complained. "I keep getting distracted and losing concentration." Spike moaned and looked over at Twilight.

"Come on Twilight the next episode of Daring Do and The Tunnles of Darkness will be coming on in a hour and I'm supposed to wait for Rainbow Dash so she can listen to it with me." Spike explained. Twilight sighed,

"Well could you at least turn it down or listen to it in the kitchen because Entrolopis is going to be closest to Equestria in a few minutes since three thousand years and I don't want to miss this chance of seeing it." Spike sighed and nodded his head.

"Fine I'll take it to the kitchen." Spike said standing up and grabbing the radio. With that the little dragon left Twilights room and headed towards the kitchen. Twilight sighed and turned her head back towards the telescope after jotting down a few notes and takeing a few peeks at the Red Giant. Twilight noticed something strange happening on the Red Giant of Entrolopis. A bright light erupted off the planet as a blue misty explosion prepelled what seemed to be a large misslie hurdling its way towards Equestria. Twilight gasped and jotted the details into her journal the misslie was large cylinder like shape speeding towards the planet with immense speeds leaving a blue misty trail behind it, beutiful yet some what disturbing. After a few moments Twilight looked back into her telescope and saw another distant explosion as another cylinder began its journy towards the planet. After a few minute of staring at it with awe Spike ran into Twilights room with the radio in his arms.

"Twilight! Twilight! Listen to this listen to what Dark Nebula is saying!"

"Excuse me folks we just recieved some important news by one of the few Pegasi messengers who work here. Eh... Huh this is strange." Dark Nebula cleared his throat. "Excactly on Friday August twenty-fourth twelve thirty four pm which is today by the way about ten minutes ago. The planet Entrolopis has reached the astounding distance of twenty four point million miles away. Which it hasn't been that close in what? Three thousand years or somethin out don't know please correct me if I'm wrong. Well a proximently twelve minutes ago two large gas eruptions fired off two large astrouids which are now heading towards Equestria. But please Ponies do not be alarmed the Astrouids are way to small to even make it through our Atmosphere states Doctor Stalemate. He says that you should all if you could please stand outside with your telescopes and enjoy the wonderful beauty." Dark chuckled at the last part. "Well anyways no need to worry everypony everthings going to be all right. Well I guess that's it for this hour of Equestrian News I'll talk to you guys tomorrow. Next up on the list is Daring Do and the Tunnles of Darkness. Later is Dark Files of Equestria. Well good night everypony." And with that Dark Nebula went off the air and as if on cue Rainbow Dash flew onto Twilight's balacony.

"Am I late?" She asked quickly.

"Nope just in time really," Spike replied. Dash let out a sigh of relief and ran a hoof through her mane.

"I was getting some shut eye but then I rememberd I was flying so fast I thought I was about to break the sound barrier again and cause a sonic rainboom." She laughed. Dash stepped into Twilight's room smiling she looked over at Twilight "Hey what'cha doin?" Dash asked looking over Twilight's stuff.

"I'm studying the distance between Entrolopis and Equestria." Twilight explained. "Today is the day that Entrolopis will be the closes to Equestria. And it wont be this close again for the next three thousand years." Dash stared at Twilight confused but then smiled.

"Oh your talking about that big Red Giant. Aw cool whats this?" Dash peeped into the telescope "What the Hay are those things?" Dash asked Twilight guessed that she spotted the missiles that were hurdling towards Equestria.

"Oh those things are just some astroids coming our way. But the radio said not to worry when they reach here which wont be for a few months really they will just burn up in our atmosphere." Twilight said. Dash took her gaze away from the astroids and began heading towards the door with Spike who still held the radio in his hands.

"Oh thats neat. Well any ways Twilight nice talken to you." Dash said with a smile.

"Nice talken to you too Dash." Twilight peeped into the telescope and watched the missiles fly through space towards them.

"Well if you guys need anything I'm up here." Twilight said looking back and reliezing they already left the room. Twilight chuckled to herself and returned her attention back to the stars.

Over the course of the next week. life seemed to go on as it always has in the morning the sounds of kids going to school or shopkeepers cleaning their stands. The sound of thundering trains shuntering in the distance Twilight continued her studies and reports on friendship. Hung out with her friends, life just seemed so peaceful and tranquil. Dash would come over every friday night to hang out with her and Spike and listen to the new episode of Daring Do and the Tunnels of Darkness. She would then go to sleep wake up the next morning, eat breakfest, do some work, hangout with friends, come home, do some more work, eat, go to bed, lather rince repeat.

But soon that would all change. The sounds of trains would be replaced with the pounding of guns. The laughing and playing children would be replaced with cries of agony or fear. Instead of peace would only bring war and terror. Because that very night. There was a bright flash of blue light as then one of the misslies crash landed into Equestria...
