Through out the day, Parallel Twilight was looking through each book of the library wing of her castle. What she was looking for was how Dark Nyx has a Nightmare Moon form. Each book she found had no information about this. However, she did find the book. In the book she found, it stated that when a "copy" of one pony is created through ritual, it gains all of that ponies abilities.

As parallel Twilight began to read more, she came to understand that Dark Nyx has the exact same abilities as Nyx. After reading, she began to talk to Twilight all about Dark Nyx's origin and how she became to be. Twilight answered to best knowledge and then said "I don't know" when she was given a hard question about her. afterwards, Parallel Twilight looked at Twilight with a curious look. "So, Dark Nyx is created from Nyx's blood?" Twi asked

"Well, I think I can say that when Dark Nyx was created, Nyx's abilities went into her, and they are evenly matched."

As they talked more, Nyx, Parallel Nyx, Dark Nyx and Tex came back. When they entered the room, Twilight and parallel Twilight noticed the look on Dark Nyx, she was confused on what just happened. When the three joined the group, Twilight explained to Dark Nyx about her strange power. Dark Nyx took it in as it was a gift, but came from Nyx. At that moment, they heard a burp, and Spike came running in with a letter. It was from Celestia. Parallel Twilight began to read

Dear Princess Twilight
We invite you,, Ben, your friends, daughter,
and your parallel self, your parallel selfs daughter, Lunar, and Dark Nyx
to Canterlot for a event that is going on, known as
the festival of time.
We would love to see you again.
Also, don't worry about what happened "that one time"
Boris and his "friends" are still banned from canterlot.
I have rooms set up for you at the palace.

Celestia

As Parallel finished reading the letter, Twilight knew about this carnival. It's a festival that happens every 100 years to celebrate a day about the gods of equeestria. During the event, people buy masks from mask salesponies. She also knew that couples who are lucky ones get a rare mask. At that point, Nyx looked at Twilight. "Mom, what is the festival of time?" Nyx asked bringing Twilight back to reality.

"Oh, basically it's a festival that a celebration of the gods of Equestria. At the carnival, you able to buy masks from salesponies and such. But, one thing Twi, what did Celestia mean by Boris and his friends being banned from Canterlot?"

Parallel Twilight looked at Twilight. "Let's say that 1 year back, he actually did some bad things, like using the forbbiden spell "Talent Swap" and such. So, he isn't allowed back at canterlot. Anyway, we should probably get going."

Friendly talk with Celestia

An hour past and everypony was in Canterlot. The cmc were bought along, even Scootaloo, which Scootaloos mother gave Rainbow permission to bring her. When they got there, they saw a lot of things. They were quite amaze how much work was being put in to this event. Even Twilight knew that in her world, the event was happening, but had to miss out due to their assignment to prevent a universe collision.

Now, Twilight, Lunar, Nyx, Dark Nyx and Tex were talking to the parallel versions of Celestia and Luna. They were talking about their lifes and such in their world. Even Luna felt bad for Lunar for what happened to him, even seeing his formal marefriend die infront of him. "So, you are saying that you froze yourself in time after this "Dark Shadow" pony was sealed in the shadows, came back 1004 years later, manage to break free of the blessing, and such?" Luna asked.

"Yes, basically I only had a certain amount of time before the blessing took control. But, me and Twilight are here in this Equestria to prevent a universe collision."

Luna then nodded. "I know that if both your universe, and our universe are combined into a giant universe, it will break the order of balance and cause a apocalypse to happen."

"According to the Celestia in our universe, she said a Ipotane named Zinrek is behind it. Basically he is a formal astronomy teacher at the school in our universe. He was known for traveling from universe to universe and studying the timeline of events in them. However, a student became concerned after Zinrek became obsessed with the theory of combining universes. When he was ratted out, he was fired by Spell Nexus and he never was seen again.'"

After explaining, Celestia then guessed that Zinrek went rouge and hostile after that. Twilight then explained Dark Nyx's origin and Celestia was surprised that Dark Nyx choose to be by Nyx's side and protect Equestria. Through the time, they talked more about timeline of events. To Twilight and Lunars surprised, the timeline of events in the parallel Equestria had more events, then theirs, even different ponies and such. At that moment, like it was on cue, a guard ran in an looked at princess Celestia. "Your highness, a pony has gone hostile, it's striking down Twilight and Ben." The guard exclaimed.

Feeling like something was, up, Celestia, Luna, Twilight, Lunar, Nyx, Dark Nyx, and Tex rushed out of the castle and headed outside. When they headed outside they saw a pony using magic against Parallel Twilight and Ben. This caused Twilight to shoot at the pony. Just then Pinkie looked terrified. "Oh no, it's chancellor coles theme." Pinkie said breaking the forth wall.

In a split second, the pony revealed that he was not indeed a pony. He was actually an Ipotane. "ARRGH, you foolish ponies are getting in MY WAY!" It shouted.

At this moment, Twilight eyes widen at who this "Ipotane" was. It was Zinrek. The very Zinrek that resided in her Equestria before he disappeared. By the look of him, he kinda resembled Tirek. However, he wasn't exactly like Tirek. Just seeing him make Nyx and Dark Nyx hid behind Celestia and Luna. They battled a rouge dragon, a ancient being, and Tirek. But this was nothing like no other. Lunar looked at him. "You must be Zinrek." Lunar said.

Zinrek then looked at who was talking to them and evilly smiled. "You must be the "foolish" ones that defeated my friend." Zinrek began to laugh. "Well guess what!? You, your parallels, and that pathetic little creation of mine won't stop me."

Feeling like they need to do something, Nyx and Dark Nyx revealed themselves, and Zinrek began to evilly laughed, and glared at Dark Nyx. At this point, something landed in front of them. From the glimpse of it, it didn't look like a normal earth pony, unicorn, pegasus, or alicorn at all. It looked like a machine. at that moment. It open it's eyes. "Target located." it said.

"Meet Nyx bot. My new creation, unlike you Dark Nyx, you were supposed to take orders from ME! Guess what, it's time. Nyx Bot, destroy these mortals."

Feeling they were in danger, Nyx and Dark Nyx began to stand ground. Knowing Dark Nyx, she is able to detect weak points on enemies. Just when she was about to, Nyx bot began firing at the Nyx sisters, but luckily they dodged. When they got up, they looked at each other, "Wh-what is this?" Nyx asked nervously.

"It's a robot. Apparently I thought they never existed, but this, it seemed like they do exist."

"Sis, we can't attack near it, it can harm us if it activates its self destruct."

Feeling they need a strategy, they began to look at the robot for any thing that can hurt it.. Nyx remembered when she battled the Children of the shadow, and the newer children of the shaddow, she came with a tatic called "Pony blaster".. Nyx and Dark Nyx decided to give it a shot, however, no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't defeat it. Twilight facehoofed. "Think you two, it's a robot, what is a robots main weakness?" Twilight asked.

At this point, Nyx and Dark Nyx then work together to defeat Nyx bot. First the created a water cloud, with Rainbow Dash's help, and put it over Nyx bot. With that, they began to fight the robot. As they fought, Nyx and Dark Nyx work together. As the battle went on, Nyx and Dark Nyx were beating the robot. As their fight reached it's end, the Robot blew up and was destroyed. As Nyx and Dark Nyx began to celebrate, Spell Nexus came by and requested the group to come to Spell Nexus manor. In that moment, they realized they need some explaining to do for Nexus.

At Spell Nexus manor, Twilight was telling him why they were here in this universe, and filling in what he wanted to know. As they talked Spell Nexus listen closely to every word that has been said. He was shocked that they are from a parallel universe. However, he was shocked that a Ipotane was threatening to combine both universes.

Twilight then finished talking, and Spell Nexus took a drink and looked at Twilight. "I do know that this universe combination threat is serious. There are two theories that I know about this." Nexus said

"One is a universe disturbance, where two of the same galaxies, and planets are in the same universe, which can disturb the space time continuum. The second, is the end of both universes."

At this point, everypony began to feel scared. These two theories were serious. Serious then a pony believing the ponies from ancient times believing the end of the world theory. Nexus then mentioned that the only way to stop it, is to prevent Zinrek from combining the universes. "So, how do we stop him?" Nyx asked nicely

"The only way is to open a gateway to white space, a place where Time and space don't exist."

From what Spell Nexus told them, they do need to seal Zinrek in white space. Better more, they needed a plan. From what they know, is that Zinrek is teaming with some pony, or "something", and Twilight knew that when Boris attacked her, it seemed like they were working with Zinrek also. "Well, I do have a feeling that this "Boris" pony is working with Zinrek." Twilight inquired

"Boris? Hmm, I still remember that pony, he did bad deeds, even to poor Ben there. But why does he have to deal with Zinrek?"

Lunar then looked at Nexus. "He, and his two friends came to ponyville and attacked my Twilight. It seemed like he knew about are arrival. Luckily thanks to the demon sealed within me, I saved Twilight. I just don't get why Boris knows about us."

At this point, Nexus then looked a Lunar with a strange look. It startled Dark Nyx. "Did you just say... you have a demon sealed in you?" Nexus asked.

Nexus then began to explain more about the reason why universes shouldn't be combined. However more detail was added. Such as ancient beings being sealed in other beings in one universe can result in a great catastrophe and can cause a seal from that specific universe the seal was made in, to break if the universe are combined. As Nexus finished his explanation, Lunar began to worry.

As it reached evening hours, the group then decided to head back. As they headed back, Nexus looked out the window with concern. "Good luck all of you

At the Apocalypse Pony hq, all the members were shocked to hear what happened. It was like Nyx and Dark Nyx were something more. What they were surprised about were two things. One was that Nyx and Dark Nyx's power comes from the Equestrian Emeralds, and the other is that they are undefeated.

As for Zinrek, he was growing furious with what happened. Nyx bot was destroyed.As he grew calmer, he talked with the superior and the others about a plan. He was trying to find a great plan to make the universes into one. The others were trying to think of good ones, but none of them sounded great. However, his anger grew when the suggestions were not great ones. "COME ON! WHAT POSSIBLE WAY IS THERE TO DEFEAT THESE MORTALS AND MAKE THE UNIVERSES INTO ONE!?" Zinrek shouted. "COME ON! Boris, you did something on the event when that Ben pony you told me came back to canterlot. What could be a good plan? I mean, there has to be an event that could be the perfect time for me to combine the universes."

Just then, Boris hit an Idea. "Well, there is one event that happens every 100 years, and it happens to be the 100th year. By that, I mean the festival of time."

"Well, I know the event is a celebration of the gods. But, sadly, I, nor Boxco and Dum Dum can enter Canterlot to help you with this, Zinrek. Me, Boxco, and Dum Dum are banned from Canterlot and are not allowed to enter."

Zinrek then sighed. He knew that he won't be able to bring the three with them for his plan, nor the Superior. Zinrek knew that he can't risk the Apocalypse Ponies chances, and getting em arrested. He knew that it would be bad. Feeling he has an idea, He looked at the group of ponies, and diamond dogs and began to talk about his idea.

The night came, and eeverypony in canterlot were closing up shops. during the time, Nyx bought some masks from shops to keep as a souvenir of the dimension.. Celestia and Luna became concerned about Zinrek ruining the festival, so they had to keep an eye out for anything suspicious.

Now, Twilight, Lunar, Nyx, Dark Nyx, and Tex were seen walking in the now quiet streets of Canterlot.. As they were walking, Twilight had her wing around Lunar and began to calm him after learning that the demon can break free if a universe disturbance occurs. As they were walking, they saw a shadow figure dart through a dark ally. Thinking something is suspicious, they began to follow. As they followed, they saw the figure move more and began to follow it. As it reached a corner, along with the group, it removed its hood and showed his face. "You must be the parallels that came to this world?" It said.

"I am Lorcan, The brother of Spike. I was formally evil, but, I changed. However, you must not tell the others about me. Truth is, they think I'm dead."

Tex then pulled out her weapon that every space dragon has for defense purposes and turned it on, and pointed it at Lorcan. "How do we know that you aren't lying? Give me a reason that I shouldn't attack you!"

At that point, Nyx then used the stare on Tex. "Tex, lower your weapon. He's telling the truth. Lower it now."

When seeing Nyx, Tex noted that Nyx is serious. Knowing that she didn't want to break her friendship with her, she turned off her weapon and put it back on her belt. And glared at him with her dragon eyes. "You better not be lying. Continue." Tex said.

"Well, you see when I was "evil", Boris, Boxco, and Dum Dum teamed with me, after the events of "that one time", A "Unicorn" took my formal team. I know that your enemy is working with that unicorn."

"Sis, we can't that will destroy Jussonics series, and could end this timeline and get MaskedPony in trouble."

Twilight then facehoofed. She knew that Nyx hanging with Pinkie was a bad idea. Through out the time, the group then began to talk to Lorcan about this "Superior" pony, and learned about him. As time went on they began to tell him why they came to the universe. As they explained, Lorcan knew that this was bad. After explaining, he began to look at them and start thinking. "Well, I can help. However, I will help as long as you don't tell Twilight Sparkle, Ben, Nyx, Phobos, their friends, or anypony, or even my brother that I am alive. I just don't want them knowing. Deal?" Lorcan said.

"Very well. I will help you when the festival of time happens at midnight. It seems that that's when the Universe thing is going to happen. Now, go. And remember, Do NOT, tell anypony that we met."

With that, Lorcan vanished and the group then decided to head back to the palace. As they headed back they were praying that the universe collision doesn't happen. All they know, is that they must eliminate Zinrek and stop him once and for all.
