James POV
After the battle against Sombra, repairs to the Crystal Empire had began, thanks to the Autobots, repairs which would have taken 3 months, only took 3 hours, I sent Sari and BB to grab the Crystal Heart, and thanks to my instructions, they succeeded, and when the Crystal Heart was put in its proper place, a magical wave came from it, clearing the gloomy skies into clear blue skies, and getting rid of the freezing weather, also giving everyone in the Empire a crystal makeover, literally, we looked almost like walking crystals, and it feels good, but my eyes saw Sari, who was also in crystal, 'Wow, she looks....beautiful.' I thought, not realizing it, shaking my head of the thought, I turned my attention to a approaching Wheeljack,
"Yes Wheeljack?" I asked, he merely waved his hand in a follow me gesture, following him confused on what he wanted, but I got my answer by the shouting crowd of Crystal Ponies, who got quiet upon my arrival, looking to Wheeljack, wondering what was going on when I saw his and every other Autobots happy and excited expressions,
"They want to make you their new king Prime!" BB practically shouted in excitement, the ponies shouting their agreement with BB, I was shocked, being a leader of a fast growing squad of Autobots was one thing, but being a king was another.
But thinking it over, the Crystal Empire is made of Energon, I know this because Wheeljack scanned the crystals, and when he brought it to me, I was shocked to hear that the Crystal Ponies have been living in Energon.
Not only that, but we freed the Empire from Sombra, maybe the princesses will see us as an ally, not an enemy.
So the pros are we have an endless source of Energon, and hopefully the princesses will see us as allies. Cons, the princesses will think we are taking over the kingdom and will probably kill everyone of us.
"I'll do it," I said, " I'll become king the Crystal Empire." cheers and shouts of happiness erupted from everyone, I just hope the pros outweigh the cons.

Canterlot Castle, Celestia POV
I was discussing the plan of action against the metal giant, when a guard came in, he was panting, " What is it?" after catching his breath, he told us some shocking news,
"The Crystal Empire has returned!" this was a good thing for us if he didn't tell us frightening, "And it's being controlled by metal giants!" immediately my sister started demanding more answers, while using the Canterlot voice, I had to pull her back in order to properly speak with the guard.
He told me that the giants came and freed the ponies from Sombra, and their leader fought against Sombra, Sombra lost, and the Crystal Ponies have made the metal giants leader their new king, it was shocking, but I knew we had to march against the giants.
"Guard, assemble the troops, I want every Royal Guard member ready for battle now." I said to the guard, who saluted and went to do what I asked, turning to my sister, and the Elements, they nod their heads in understanding, telling them to head to the armory, they left except for Luna.
"Sister, if the metal giants leader is able to defeat Sombra, then how do we know we won't loose, we had trouble fighting Sombra, it took us 3 weeks to weaken him, and their leader beat him in one day and -" I stopped Luna before she could go any further, I told her everything was going to be okay, and we left to put our amor on.
