private Battle Royal.

[Samurshy 708]

It is a very dark night, the nights have seemed only to get darker, maybe because the one who regulated night is no longer living. It has been a year since Ven came into power and ponyville has taken the brunt of it all. Ponyville has become little more than a dilapidated hoover town. Shops have fallen into disrepair, and houses have crumbled so that their support beams are showing. The Darkhart Royal Guard has an outpost based on the outskirts of ponyville but most of the Guards are unconscious from a night of hard partying.

 

On a trial that leads straight to Ponyville, is Twilight Sparkle. Looking more battered and bruised than ever, she has a dead stair. All of her conviction is focused into one thought, and Twilight knew she had to tell all of Ponyville. But how?

 

Twilight made it to the town square and walked up to the mayoral podium. The square was as empty and barren as ever, not even mice dare scurry around this late an hour.

 

Twilight closes her eyes, and her horn begins to glow, the glow becomes brighter and brighter until the entire square is illuminated. Using her magic Twilight manages to telecomunicate with all of ponyville, "Everypony, I have urgent news, please get up and meet me at the town square. It is of utmost importance that you meet me here as soon as possible"

 

One by one, the citizens of ponyville unlock their doors and shuffle out into the town square, even the once Mayor Mare is in the audience. It only takes about 15 minuets before the town square is completely full.

 

Twilight begins to speak "As most of you may know, us bearers of the elements of harmony decided to storm Darkhart castle." Twilights eyes grew darker " We had a plan, Rainbow dash, Applejack and Pinkie Pie would storm the gates head first to cause a distraction" Twilight looked down at her hooves " Me, Rarity and Fluttershy were supposed to infiltrate the castle unnoticed. I used my magic to teleport us inside its walls." She looked at the astonished audience. "The plan did not go as we hoped, while Rainbow Dash's team did manage to distract the main Royal Guard force, they managed to get captured in the process."

 

"Me and the entirety of my team managed to infiltrate the walls of the castle. But the room that we teleported into..." Twilight's expression was now of vehement rage "CELESTIA AND LUNA ARE STILL ALIVE!" gasps from the audience filled the town square, whispers were being exchanged. "When we entered the castle, the room we teleported into was the room that held Celestia and Luna. They were strapped to a machine, a very technologically advanced machine. From what I could ascertain from studying the machine, it was draining their power. The machines made it impossible for Celestia and Luna to escape because the magic barrier they were in negates all magic from being used, and it syphons all the magic from the ones inside it."Twilight took a deep breath and continued "I do not know for sure what Ven is using their magic for, but the amount of magic he has collected from them in the past year is enough to destroy an entire continent" Every pony starts to panic, and it is clear that a riot was about to be incited " CALM DOWN EVERYPONY!" Instantly the crowd grew quiet "When we were in the syphon room, we managed to trip an alarm system. Guards had surrounded us before we could even sneeze. We tried to fight them, as you can see I am pretty beat up, but it was no use. They captured Fluttershy and Rarity, and they would have captured me if I had not used my magic to teleport and escape.

 

" I feel horrible for leaving my best friends back there. But I had to come here and tell you what I saw. And now you ponies have a choice, rise up and defeat Ven and rescue our princesses, or sit on your flanks and watch as our precious equestria is razed to rubble." Some of the audience instantly went back home "Oh come on everypony, are you really going to do nothing. I don't have much time left, the Dark Royal Guard should be here any minute. Decide right now, what you want the future of Equestria to be" There was a long silence in the audience, but some pony spoke up. It was a bright red alicorn with fiery orange hair. (All alicorns that once lived in Canterlot were banished when it turned to Darkhart Capitol) " I Blaze Pheonixtear, will join your rebellion Twilight" Twilight began to smile "Good now who else? A war can not be won with one pony."...

 

Meanwhile at the Dark Royal Guard outpost in Ponyville

 

Winds and Cloud Dreamer were awake doing paperwork, while the Royal Guards lay unconscious from their late night of partying. When suddenly a letter dropped on their desk via magic mail. They read it and it stated

 

To all Royal Guards in the Ponyville outpost,

 

We have it on good authority that a one Twilight Sparkle is in Ponyville at this very instant. Any guard who captures her and brings her to me Ven Darkhart, will be promoted to a member of Darkhart Clan and serve as my personal protection. Your pay raise will be exponential and your magic training will be top notch. At all costs capture Twilight Sparkle alive.

 

Your Evil and oh so handsome Emperor, Lord Ven Darkhart.

Ivy hoovered at the back of the crowd. She gasped with the rest of the crowd. Twilight just unloaded this on to them so fast. She then blinked and wondered when Twilight asked for ponies to step forward. She looked over at Blaze an Alicorn. Ivy knew she could turn into an Alicorn soon. She took a deep break and flew over everyone.

 

"I'll help as well" she said and stood next to Blaze.

Chaos Breaker, in all his alicorn glory, hit the dirt. His Soul Diamonds all burst in different directions. "Hm... this dimension looks like it needs a hero..." He transformed into his earth form, his Diamonds having all left the area. "Well, I guess I'm stuck again. If a hero is needed, I will join the quest. Is that what this was about, my soul mate?" He asked Twilight. He shook his head. "I forget... dimensions aren't the same..."

 

Cloud stood up. As Darkhart's successor, he needed to keep on his good side. He looked out the window and wrote "Ponyville is rebelling. It will be crushed as soon as possible. The Chaos Controller is here. I will start looking for the Soul Diamonds immediately." He sent it to Darkhart. He flew outside, with his bodyguards at the back of the crowd, and shot a net at Twilight. It hit. A pair of bodyguards flew off with her. "So... what's this about rebellion I hear?

[Samurshy 708]

" Yes, ponies. We need every last bit of help we can get. When I am captured which I am sure I will be, you have permission to use my Tree Library as a base of operations." Twilight said.

[Pinkazoid 3,493]

(Ivy, you used the same words i was gonna use xD)

 

"I'll help too" Shouted Haste from behind the crowd *If Celestia and Luna are still alive, there's a chance we can bring Equestria back to it's formal glory* she thought as she flew towards the stage.

[Samurshy 708]

"Remember what I said every pony don't worry about me. I will be with my friends soon" Twilight said, The onlooking crows was enraged but said nothing.

 

Blaze shot up with his wings and flew at Cloud, Blaze's hoof was on fire, Blaze punched at Cloud. " I won't let you take her"

[That One Techpriest You Used To Know 2,286]

Cloud looked on, smiling. "Do not worry, she is a half-mad pony that has escaped from the asylum. She will be nursed back to health, and rejoin the community. The former rulers have been killed, and anything she has said is a lie. Now I suggest you all go to bed before something happens that you all don't want." They all dispersed. "Now as for you four..." he said with a demonic grin.

 

Chaos blasted him unconsious and yelled to the others to run. He sprinted to the Everfree forest.

[Samurshy 708]

" EVERY PONY LISTEN UP" Blaze said. He wasn't aware of it, but he was using the royal canterlot voice, "TWILIGHT IS RIGHT, ANY PONY THAT WANTS TO JOIN THE REBELLION MEET UP AT THE BASE OF OPERATIONS IN THE MORNING" The crowd was literally stunned because the royal canterlot voice is rare, and very scary.

[That One Techpriest You Used To Know 2,286]

"Shut up Fireboy and move," Chaos said, pushing him.

[Samurshy 708]

Blaze headed to the tree library, with a heat spell he changed the air currents to make a mirage around the tree house. Blaze also put a ward spell on the surrounding premises if any royal guards decided to poke around. "Every pony inside! Now." Blaze stood outside ushering in every pony that was willing to join the rebellion.

Ivy flew into the tree, she looked around. "Oh, nice" she muttered. She looked at Blaze, "So what are we looking for?" She asked, Before looking at all the books that seem to be around.

"Just for any other pony that wants to join the Rebellion" He entered the tree library " I suppose this is it, for now, I told the towns ponies to join us here in the morning." Blaze said as he closed the door and sealed up the wards.

[That One Techpriest You Used To Know 2,286]

With the diamond hovering around him, he transformed into a alicorn with white front legs, black back legs, and gray hair and middle. "Everypony listen up! I am Chaos Breaker, creator of the Elements of Harmony and Chaos, and I will assist this cause. however, if we are going to be able to beat sommeone with the power to defeat Celestia, you guys need to keep your eyes open for these." He showed them the diamond. "There are six of them left, and i need all seven of them in order to help you all to my maximum power." He stepped down ande resumed his original form.

[Samurshy 708]

"Hmm... ok seems simple enough. Let us wait till morning to tell all the ponies who gather here what to do. I have a plan and I need every pony who is in the rebellions cooperation." Blaze said.

[Half-Note 273]

Winds sat high in the clouds in his windigo form, waiting for orders.

[Nicolae Carpathia 140]

Morning star was walking into town with nothing more then his sleeping bag.

[That One Techpriest You Used To Know 2,286]

Looking at Prince Morningstar, Chaos said, "Look man, come down here."

 

(He came down there,

said, "Whatcha want?"

"One bourban, one scotch, one beer..."

)

[Midnightive 458]

Ivy blinked and started hovering, looking at books. She found one 'the four seasons' she started to read about her family's past. She shut it before putting the book back. She flew to other part of the self and picked up a book. 'The fight' she started to read about the great fights in history.

[Samurshy 708]

"Hay Ivy is it? What are you reading there" Blaze said . It was currently about one in the morning and waiting for dawn to arrive made Blaze extremely impatient.

[Nicolae Carpathia 140]

Morning star has arrived into ponyville he fond an nice tree to lay under. He pulled out his sleeping bag and went to sleep.

[Midnightive 458]

Ivy blinked and looked up. She smiled "Well, I was reading up on my families history and now i'm reading about the great fights in history" she said. She flew over and past the book over. "Nothing helpful really, i just love to read"

[Samurshy 708]

"Ah, so do I, growing up in Canterlot means you have to be highly educated. And it also means you have to enjoy menial tasks such as tea parties, and *shudders* ballroom dancing" Blaze said with a look of horror on his face.

[Midnightive 458]

Ivy smiled, "I grew up in Canterlot, my family always wanted to be close to the royal family" she said. She landed on the floor and laid down read to sleep. "My mum always thought we could get close to them because we're Alicorns for short periods of time" she told him. She put her head down on front hooves.

[Samurshy 708]

" Very interesting" Blaze said reflectively "My dad died when I was young. He was a bad pony, very infamous in fact I would bet you heard of him. I grew up with my aunt from my moms side, she is pretty close to the nobles and always wanted me to marry into a noble family."
