Snow looked at the pegasus that abducted her, "I'm sorry, but I'm on a very important scouting mission for the Great Guard of Freemanelius City, so I request that you set me down on the mainlaid so I can continue my mission to scout the Portal." She said athourtively, but not to harsh to offend him.
"Then you would like to know that as Guardian of Equestria and Supreme Grand Master of the Angels of Armageddon Legion I out rank him in every way shape or form," says Rashall back but in a neutral tone.
Kleft, returning from his disoriented state, looked around himself. His eyes widened and he looked directly at Rashall. "You're the grand master of WHAT?" he exclaimed. "Never mind, the point is, why are you attacking the island! I demand answers!" He turned to snow. "Who the hay is this?"
"We are attacking nopony or country. The Cloud ship you are on is the venerable Ragnarok, who's sensor arrays picked up a large amount of magical power. This power was coming from an area we though long hidden but now it is known to all," says Rashall.
"Please, I need to get on with my mission. I am very important to them, and they need me to complete my mission, so please let me down at the mainland, that is all I ask." Snow said to them.
"My lord over half of the populace is off of the ground the others a content to stay in fight. What are your orders?" Asks the runner. Rashall takes a long deep breath knowing that the next sentence to come out of his mouth will be hard for the other two ponies he just picked up. "Bring first fleet into position and prepare for Nova strike," says Rashall over the coms the entire ship goes quite before heading to their designated areas.
Snow heard the orders and didn't really care, she never lived on the Lunar Island, and personally didn't care about the ponies about to die, her military experience having toned down and basically removed all care for deaths that weren't of allies. She just went right on asking if she could be set down on the mainland to continue her mission.
"Secondary orders are what my lord?" asks the messanger. "Send out the message, Crusade is to be declared on all of Equestria. Awaken the titan legions and the other fleets, send word to our allies that the pacts are to be observed," says Rashall.
"Until I see fit or this crisis is over Equestria is now under Crusade Law meaning I'm in charge of what military units go where. And whom is released to do what duties," says Rashall starring Snow in the eyes.
Kleft continued to stay speechless, untill he finally piped up. "So, if you guys aren't the ones attacking the Island....oh stars! They could be in trouble! We have to get back down there now!"
Snow's eyes narrowed, "You don't want to see my bad side, dude, now, I'm going to ask one more time, let.. me..off..this..ship!" Snow's usaully white coat started to have black swirls move across it as the evil inside her began to surface.
"We both want off! What is your real reason for holding us captive here anyways? Do you have something against the Lunar unicorns? We have to go save them! The whole island might be in danger of destruction!" Kleft began to panic. "What if we're already too late!?"
Snow looked at her, "I dont care about your little island! I need to continue my mission to the Portal if you like it or not!" Suddenly a black flash happened and Snow was replaced by a black alicorn with a fiery red mane and eyes, and she looked absouletly evil and powerful. Another black flash and she dissapeared with evil laughter hanging in the air.
(I'm a dude ) Kleft was surprised at the sudden outburst, and fell over. When he looked again, and pony was gone. "By the moon...what was THAT? She had wings...and a horn at the same time! I thought ponies could only be one or the other! Heck, I thought pegasi didn't even exist anymore. There are only unicorns on the isla..." He turned to Rashall. "Please, i beg of you, we have to do something about the island!"
"Sir we are in position and awaiting orders," comes a call over the loudspeakers. "Fire the Nova Strike now,"says Rashall seconds latter the entire cloud ship shakes. A screen in the upper right hand corner shows a bright flash of light, seconds latter and the flash dissipates revealing a destroyed Lunar Island nothing remains on the ground. Where the Palace once stood is now nothing but rubble. "If this crisis continues and threatens the shadowed forest this is the fate that Equestria faces," says Rashall starring at the two.
The mysterious black alicorn appeared landing on the mainland, right in front of a group of ponies. She gave an evil smirk, "Your lives are now forfeit!" she said to them, and they were engulfed by flame from her horn before she took off again.
Kleft looked off the side of the ship in horror as his only home he had ever had, the place that his family and friends used to reside, was reduced to no more than a crator in the ground. He looked back at Rashall, his once desperate look now turned oddly neutral, like he no longer had any cares in the world. "You..." He walked up to Rashall, his horn began to glow with his magical aura. "You BASTARD!" he screamed at the top of his lungs. A second aura appeared around his horn as he breached magic tier two. "I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU FOR WHAT YOU HAVE JUST DONE! THE STARS SHALL CURSE YOU FOREVER!" Impossibly, a third aura appeared at his horn, and the ship began to destabilize barely, but enough to be noticable. "LUNAR ISLAND SHALL BE-" From the sudden exertion of power, all the auras suddenly dissapeared and Kleft stared forward blankly. His eyes than rolled upwards and he passed out.
As the black alicorn was flying, she suddenly transformed back into Snow and slammed into the ground. She got up rubbing her head, which felt like she had a migraine. "Maybe I should set up camp." She said to herself, and prepared a camp just out of sight of the road.
"Take him to a warded room in the apothicarion double guard outside the door allow no access on exception of the apothecary staff and myself. Tell Ekan to take us back to the shadowed forest for offload of the civilians," says Rashall.
