Nocturnal looked at Snow, she had a confused look on her face. She was inside a large tent, so she must have been unconcious for some time. The last thing she remembered was talking to Plague,then everything going black. "Hello Ms,my name is Nocturnal Lightning, decendent from Princess Luna and future ruler of Equestria " she said happly, Her injurys were not very bad, she only got a few cuts and bruises. "I thank you for saving me, i will tell you exactly what happened between me and the Dark Alicorn. He is actully my Brother, he cant remember his real name, he just calls himself Dark Plague."
Snow listened to Lightning's explanation and grimaced at the mention of Dark Plague, "I've met him before. Managed to get away somehow, but his magic did something to me. Now there's this evil force inside of me always trying to get out. It mostly only happens when I'm really angry. Now, would you tell me what happened? All I saw was you falling after a massive explosion and him flying away." Snow held out a pot of coffee with her magic, "Coffee?"
(Rashall left, and he was sort of important to the story. Anypony have any idea what I should do, cause I'm now locked on the Ragnarok with a braindead captain)
Snow thought about what Nocturnal said about her being desendant from Luna and decided to ask her something, "Do you remember the royal brothers, Tremalion and Heculius, they were the elder kin to Celestia and Luna. I don't know if you saw them reclaim their own spot, but I know where they are now. Their in my home, Freemanelius City."
"Tremalion and Heculius... Yes i remember them." Nocturnal said as she was drinking coffee that snow gave her. "Freemanelius city is a nice place, one of the few untouched places around in Equestria after that portal opened." "The Elder Kin might be powerful, but they dont know about what happened when Plague chalenged Celestria for the Throne, They would be in serious trouble if Plague decided to pay the city a visit." "Do you care to join me ? We should warn them of Plague"
Snow gulped, "I was on a mission for then in the first place, to scout out the portal, as they detected that it was weakening, but I'm sure Tremalion will be more than happy to see you. And since I know the area we are going, I can teleport us." Snow concentrated and her horn lit up, and the next thing they knew, they were in the Great Hall of Freemanelius City. "Well if it isn't our little nephew Nocturnal, you must have had such a hard time finding her Snow." Tremalion said sarcastically. Heculius rolled his eyes, "Brother, why must you always be so rude. Welcome little nephew!" Heculius said excitedly, "What brings you to fair Freemanelius City?"
" I came to warn you of my Brother. He nearly Killed me over the Everfree forest when i refused to fight him." Nocturnal said "He took me down very quickly so that means you both should begin to evacurate the city, Plague has enough power to destory it.
Tremalion merely blinked, "Ah yes, the one who has forgotten his own name? Yes we know of the danger, but we also have a secret weapon so secret that not even the pony who possesses it knows that they own this power. But, as she was able to find a family member, I guess I will tell." Trenalion turned to Snow, "It's you, Snow. And we had nothing to do with it, Plague caused it himself. You, Snow, have the potential to harness the power to harness the spirit of Black Night inside of you. You just need to defeat her yourself. And Nocturnal, I have already evcuated the city, we only remained to wait for Snow to return with her report on the Infinity Gates. Now, we must take our leave." and Tremalion and Heculius teleported away. Snow took a frightened gulp, she knew the real reason the evacuated, she would need to best Black Night in combat, and that meant casting a seperation spell. Snow turned to Nocturnal, "Nocturnal, I will need your help. I need to unleash the power of the spirit inside me and defeat it, if we are ever going to stand a chance against your brother. Be warned though, as Plague caused it himself, she is very powerful and very evil. What do you say?"
Kleft ran through the ship, searching for Rashall. 'Where the hay is he!?' He thought with fear. Kleft turned a corner and bowled over one of the guards. "Oh! I'm so sorry!" He exclaimed. "Actually, I don't have time, where is Rashall!?" The guard picked himself up. "Rashall left to finish something on the ground." The guard said flatly. "He won't be back for a month or so." The look on Kleft's face must have set him off. "Sir...are you okay?" The guard said. Kleft didn't answer, but instead took off towards the hangar full of Lunar Ponies. They had to get off NOW.
Tremalion suddenly appeared in the hanger filled with Lumar Island ponies, who ran away in fear and shock, "Do not fear me, I am Tremalion, Eldar Kin to Celestia and Luna, I know of my sister's subjects suffering, I wish to speak to your leader, to discuss a unification and help." he said trying to calm the group.
Jhera burst into the hangar to see Tremalion standing in the center, while everypony was screaming and the room was total chaos. "Chancellor Starfire!" he cried out. He saw her run out of the crowd and stare down the rude interrupter. "There are better ways to introduce oneself, you realize." She said with conviction. A few of the ponies calmed down and began to watch the scene unfold. "Princess Luna was disowned as our leader the moment she was banned from Equestria. All rule belongs to me and myself only. Now, you wish to discuss diplomacy? Keep in mind, do anything rash and I'll put your head on a stake."
Tremalion laughed, causing the whole ship to shack, "Do you even realized who your talking to?! I am Tremalion, co-founder of Equestria itself! I command the powerful Ancient Elements and the weather! And you think you will be putting MY head on a stake! Ha! Even my brother Heculius could best you all!" Tremalion got down close to Starfire's face, "Now listen here 'Commander Starfire' I am trying to give you a chance at life! And you dare insult me! You are lucky that I am a lot more forgiving than my sister. Now, if your ponies could kindly come with me, maybe you could avoid death at the hands of my nephew! And if your wondering why I cannot face him myself is because that would be against the phophecy, now if your kind will kindly follow me, you just might live a few extra years!"
Kleft ran through the now silent crowd to the center where the two ponies conversed. "I am afraid he is correct, Chancellor." He said grimly. "I had a vision earlier, and with Rashall gone to the ground, there is no commander of the ship." She gasped at him. "Rashall is GONE? The second in command hated me! Who knows what he might pull!?" She sighed and looked back towards Tremalion. "Forgive me for my outburst, I'm just really freaked out right now. We will go with you, but you must make a vow that you will not bring harm to anypony here. You of all ponies must know that I need verification."
(Uh, Tremalion is a guy) Tremalion held his arm across his chest in an ancient Equestrian salute, "I promise no harm will come of your people." he said. His horn lit up and the next thing they knew they were in a large white room, "Welcome, to the Emergancy Bunker." Tremalion said, his voice echoing, "This is just part of a massive underground facility that can feed and house a quarter of a million ponies. You will each be assigned a room number and a secdule after taking a profiency test. I know it seems harsh but it is necessary to survive down here. And don't worry, you will all be assigned close to each other and families shall share an apartment. That is all." then with a flash of light he disappeared and in his place stood a row of machines that would assign them their apartments.
Snow looked at Nocturnal, "So you ready to help me defeat and harness the full power of the spirit your brother put inside me?" Snow looked up, it was midday, good, it was when Black Night was at her weakest. "I will begin the spell when you are ready."
Kleft grumbled as he inspected the odd metal box he was to walk through. Many of the other ponies were skeptical as well, a few of the younger ones jumped right through though. Seeing as it didn't seem to have any negative effects on them, he walked in and it assigned him a room. "Interesing..." he inquired. He headed down an odd hallway to where he would be staying. Upon entering the room, he found it was plain, but it seemed to have been formatted to appeal directly to his own interests. "Somepony's been doing their research." he thought aloud. Still a little skeptical, he began inspecting the room.
Knock happened at Kleft's door, and the door slid open to reveal two unicorns in military camoed uniform, "You are needed, follow us." they said simultaneously.
Kleft sighed due to his interrupted inspection. Why would anypony need him and not The Chancellor? They walked along in silence, giving Kleft time to inspect his escorts. Something about them was very odd. Perhaps it was the way they walked, but he couldn't quite put hifls hoof on it. They eventually stopped in front of a large, metallic door. It swung open, and Kleft was escorted inside.
