//------------------------------// // Chapter 1: 2 years later.... // Story: Equestrian Heroes: The Meda Hero, The Crash Knight and The Net Ronin // by SoonToBeWriterBrony //------------------------------// Luna looked towards the moon remembering the time she talked to a little robot named Roll and her creator Dr Light. She wondered how they were doing and was also wondering if they recognised her in her proper form. she shock her head and walked inside to be greeted by her sister Celestia. The older monarch and the regent of the sun was waiting for Luna to walk back into the room and have some tea. "Now Lulu," said Celestia," What is it that you want to talk to me about?" "Well Celly," said Luna," Thou remember the... thing that possessed me all those years ago?" "Lulu...," said Celestia," You know that your not." "I know I know," said Luna interrupting Celestia. Luna knew that Celestia doesn't blame her for what the Nightmare did even if she still felt responsible for it. "It's just that we have not heard hide nor hair of the Nightmare since it was pushed out of me by the Elements of Harmony." "Lulu," said Celestia," There is a very good chance that the Nightmare has been destroyed when the Elements of Harmony freed you from its grasp. I feel that..." 'That is just it Celly," said Luna," During that thousand years being trapped in the moon, the nightmare and I visited other worlds..." "Yes Luna," said Celestia," I know. You told me and my generals all about this after you had returned and you did give us the time to research and build and repair all the things to recreate those strange golems. They haven't woken up yet but.." "Celestia! Will you let me finish!" shouted Luna in her royal Canterlotian voice," Oh I'm sorry sister..." "Its ok Luna," said Celestia," Its my fault and your right I should let you finish talking." "Yes sister," said Luna," Well as I was saying, I can feel the Nightmare because it possessed me for such a long time. Well earlier today I felt something that i haven't felt for two years since my return sister...." "Its back isn't it," said Celestia," And you think its brought some friends?" "Yes sister," said Luna," Which mean we have to wake those heroes up by force." "Do you think that is a good idea Lulu?" asked Celestia as she stood up from her chair. "No Celly," answered Luna," But what choice do we have?" * * * * * In a large messa, lay a large strange structure. It looks slightly lopped sided as if it fell from the sky and it the ground crooked. A creature walked out of the building, his legs shock from the impact and he could tell that his legs will be shacky for a while. "What a rush," said Vile as he leaned back on the building," Last time I decide that there is no space for a reinforced chair. At least the equipment is untouched. Now the hard part of moving all of this before i get spotted." "You do realize," hissed the Nightmare who materialize next to Vile," The more you stall the more prepared Equestria will be..." "Yeah yeah shut it, you stupid cloud," said Vile," These are my Mavericks so that means we follow MY plan. And that mean I need to find a place I can hide and set up shop there. The one thing I have learned when I was under Sigma's boot is always have a back up base that you can run to and hunker down." "Bah," spat the Nightmare," Fine but you better be able to deliver. Especially on that new body. You had two year since we meet to start on it and I have yet to see what it looks like." "You have no patience do you?" asked Vile who continued to talk without an answer from the Nightmare," That your problem and I say DEAL." With that Vile walked away from the Nightmare cloud and back into the building to "enlist" the help of his new subordinates.
