Authors Notes: Hello. Chapter 4 is here, and ready to rock. Get ready to get lost.

Eternal Night

Screams. The once proud city of Cloudsdale was slowly being reduced to rubble as the dark blue mare tore the city apart, pony by pony. The city was filled with corpses of fallen ponies. Nightmare Moon stood at the Top of city hall. She used all her might to raise the moon, overlapping the sun. The remaining ponies looked at their destroyer. Cowering in terror.

"The light has ruled for far too long. I have come to set you free from your destiny. Let eternal night descend upon the land and free you from the bondage of the Eye! Rejoice young ones. Rejoice that you do not suffer the faith of those who came before."

-----------------

Princess Celestia overlooked her kingdom. Her heart was troubled as she saw the eclipse. Her sister has never done anything like an eclipse before.

"PRINCESS CELESTIA! PRINCESS CELESTIA!" A guard stallion galloped towards the princess. "Reports came in from Cloudsdale. Princess Luna has been slaughtering ponies there!"

"What! Why was I only informed now?"

"Most of the messengers where killed. Only one survived."

With that, Princess Celestia took to the skies.

"...why...?" Gasped a bleeding out unicorn. He dawned a red mane over his blue coat. His body was torn apart, innerds spilling out. He took his final breath as an energy beam shook it out. Ponyville was in complete ruin. The houses ablaze in fire. The citizens diminished into dust. 

"To save you." 

"LULU!" Princess Celestia landed just across her sister. Her face donning an expression of shock and anger. 

"Took you long enough." Nightmare Moon looked up, matching her sister's gaze. 

"Sister! Stop this madness! These ponies are innocent"

"Yes." Nightmare nodded. "They most certainly are. In fact, their only crime is that they took so long to die."

Princess Celestia cringed at that retort. Her face picked up on anger as she observed the mangled remains of her little ponies. "Then why-"

"Why? Because it is necessary, sister. There is only the master race" Nightmare Moon grinned. "And I'm afraid you aren't on the list."

Nightmare Moon flung herself at Princess Celestia. Using as much magic as she could harness, Princess Celestia unleashed a wave to stop the advancing mare, only to have it negated by her armor. The impact from the charge sent the Princess hurling towards a building, causing it to collapse. Princess Celestia looked up, she was bleeding. I'm... Mortal? She looked up. The eclipse was gone. The sun was gone. The sky was nothing but complete and utter darkness. She then looked at her sister, horrified as dark magic was emanating from her horn, magic she had never seen before. Nightmare Moon aimed her horn at her sister.

"Goodbye. Tia."
