Upon entering Ponyville, Chase and Twilight were greeted by five other mares. They talked with Twilight for a short minute before noticing Chase who just stood there with a confused look on his face, the magic of the Elements of Harmony radiating off the six mares faintly but strong enough to be detected by a trained magic user. One of the mares, an all pink one, dashed over to Chase and shook his hoof with such enthusiasm that it almost dislocated his shoulder. He cringed as she shook his hoof.
After what seemed like eternity, the pink pony let go of Chase's hoof and sped of like Starstreak, the leader of the Dark Bolts, in the opposite direction. Chase just stood there with the most confused look on his face. He turned to the other five Elements and asked what that was about and they all laughed.
"Oh that was just Pinkie Pie's usual reaction to meeting somepony new." A cyan pegasus with a rainbow colored mane and tail said shaking her head. "And knowing her she's probably getting a party ready for you right now." She started laughing hysterically.
Chase just stood there even more confused and decided to just go with it. He looked at each of them before introducing himself. Besides Twilight, the remaining four introduced themselves as Applejack, Rarity, Fluttershy, and Rainbow Dash. They also told Chase that the pink pony was Pinkie Pie. Chase made a mental note to try to avoid this Pinkie Pie after he ended Nightmare Moon.
"So where's this party gonna be held?" Chase asked and Applejack just chuckled, "It'll probably be at Sugarcube Corner where most of Pinkie's parties are. Come on, Night, we'll show you the way."
Chase nodded and followed the girls to Sugarcube Corner where, as Applejack said, Pinkie threw his Welcome To Ponyville party. He almost had a heart attack when a lot of ponies jumped out yelling suprise, which almost shattered his illusion spell right then and there to which he was grateful that it held. He looked at all the ponies and smiled, tears starting to form. The girls noticed this and asked if he was ok.
"Yeah i'm fine," Chase said, wiping the tears from his eyes still smiling, "Just haven't had a party for me in a long time and i'm just really happy is all."
The girls just smiled and enjoyed the party. Chase, for the first time in his life, was truely happy. It almost made up for the four years that he was Nightmare's student, it even almost made up for the dissapointment and horror when meeting his family again after years of being away from them, almost. Shaking the bad memories from his mind, he enjoyed the rest of the party with the residents of Ponyville.
About halfway into the party, an unexpected visit from the rulers of the land appeared for the party. All the ponies bowed to the pure white alicorn with a sun on her flank and a almost rainbow like mane and tail that flowed like Nightmare Moon's and the indigo alicorn with the same mark on her flank like Nightmare Moon's only reversed with a mane and tail the same color as the night sky and flowing like her sisters. Upon the first look at the princess of the night, Luna was her name, Chase immediately felt the lingering of his teachers power on her.
The princesses told their subjects get up and asked who this party was for to which they all pointed to Chase or Night Rider as he told them. They turned to him and introduced themselves as Princess Celestia and Princess Luna. He bowed to them and offered a hoof to which Celestia took, shaking it in hers. He offered his hoof to Luna, but when she got an inch from touching his hoof she flinched staring at Chase with slight malice. With a growl and a huff, she stormed out of Sugarcube Corner which suprised everyone but scared Chase who decided to run after her as did the Element wielders and Celestia.
Chase and the others caught up to Luna after a short while. As Chase approached Luna, she turned and blasted him with a bolt of magic sending him sprawling onto the ground hunched over in pain. Celestia and the girls gaped at Luna in horror at what she did.
"Luna, what are you doing?" Celestia demanded as the girls approached the hurt pegasus stallion, who groaned in pain. "Why did you just attack Night Rider?"
Looking at her sister, Luna glared at Chase who just stared back in pain and terror, "He has been touched by Nightmare Moon and he resonates with her magic!" She screamed as she blasted another bolt at Chase.
Deciding that the charade is over even as it started, Chase dissolved into a veil of mist, much like his teacher had taught him, and appeared three feet to the right. He shred the illusion and stood before all eight of them as a miniture Nightmare Moon, they all gasped and backed away from Chase.
"Since Luna knows the truth i guess there's no use in hiding it," Chase said looking down and scraping the dirt beneath his left forehoof before looking up at the eight mares, "It's true, I have been touched and taught by the Mare in the Moon. But not by my own descision, i was forced to make a life-or-death situation by that monster when she came to me four and a half years ago, so i chose life and spared my family from death or worse." Chase was on the verge of tears as he explained his situation.
Luna continued to glare at him confused at what he was saying, "What do you mean? Explain yourself!" She demanded stomping her hoof.
Chase nodded but asked if he could tell his story in private to which they agreed heading to the library.
As Twilight closed and locked the front door putting up a closed sign before all of them, The Element wielders, the princess of the sun and moon, turned to Chase waiting to hear what he had to say. He looked at all of them, looked down with a pained look and sighed before looking up at them and began weaving his tale of woe and sadness starting with Nightmare Moon's takeover of his planet.

As i told Neon pegasi there will be more to come just need to get through the school week
Thank you for liking my story
MOAR
Good start mate! I am sure more and more people will read this.
Just picking out some flaws
In the first chapter it describes Chase using magic or some form of spells
But here he is described as a Pegasus
can you fix this, at first I thought he was a human, but then he was described as a pony but now I don't know which...
1343904
Well let me ask you this, why would i first say he's an alicorn and that he cast a a spell that made anypony who looked at him a pegasus in the first story?
Maybe you should pay a bit more attention to the story man
Attention everypony, i will start working on chapter four tomorrow and see if i can publish it Friday. If not i'll try publishing it during the weekend, so to those of you demanding more, i'm talking to you Neon Pegasi and hiddenisbeastmo , you'll be getting more by this weekend.
So thanks to everypony who read, will read, favourited, and liked Earth's Nightmare Era. I appreciate the positive feedback
I'm not really into sad/human fics, but the concept sounds good. I will give this a read-over later.
I wish there was more character dialogue. All this narration makes the whole thing feel more like a summary than an acutal story.

Well i'm sorry like it says in the descrition, this is my first story. So i'm if the lack of dialouge is not to your interest, give me a break jeez.
1351725 *groan* Ok now I'm annoyed. I understand new writers come in either "full power to shields Mr. Spock" or with their pants down to their ankles, but it gets exasperating when people get offended at the littlest things.
In reference to my last comment, I was just giving a critique. Next time I'll be sure to sugarcoat it with these:
