Prologue

"Man, what did I even do to get myself stuck in this mess?"

"You should be thankful, at least Queen Celestia gave you a chance to be a part of one of her ships, would you rather be up here mopping the hallways than being out there risking your life?"

"Guess you're right, I just don't trust, you know - her."

"No one does, I heard she cut off the head of one of the Lunar spies that boarded this ship and used it as a wall decor."

"That's, urgh, I think I just threw up in my own mou-"

The door hissed and in a split second it opened, a hooded figure was behind it, the janitors stood erect and saluted the figure who didn't even raise a hoof, guess the figure was that much of a high ranking officer to give a salute back. The guards were shaking, terrified actually, cause they knew what THAT pony can do. The pony trotted along the long hallway till it reached another door, put it's hoof against the scanner and in a few seconds, the light above the door turned from red to green. The door opened and the pony went in and the door shut tight.

"Like I said, what did I even do to get myself stuck in this mess?"

The hooded figure continued to trot along mazes of metal bridges and railings, the engines around her hissed with steam, the pony can hardly hear her own hoofsteps, but that didn't matter much. This pony was an alicorn, from the outline of it's wings and even with the hood, you can see it's horn, slightly pulsating with dark energy, the pony continued to trot till it reached another door, spoke a few words and it opened, this room was big, it had a small chair in the center and and bright buttons were in front of it, it was like the main bridge, but instead of a wall, it had a huge glass plane that was overlooking empty space, another part of the room had glass tubes with some kind of pony in it, it's face was unrecognizable, there were thousands of these containers.

And on that chair, was another hooded figure, but this was taller and it looked older, it had a long broken gray horn, it's hooves were wrinkled already, like it was dipped in water a long time.

"I take it that the Lunar spy has been dealt with?" said the figure in the chair.

"Definitely."

"Very good, very very good, did you manage to squeeze out information from the spy?"

The small pony didn't answer.

"Well, did you!?"

"I squeezed too much."

The old pony slammed it's hoof against the control panel in anger, it's horn glowed with black energy and lifted a wall panel and threw it to the other side.

"I TOLD YOU TO CONTROL YOUR POWERS! HOW CAN WE LEARN THE LOCATION OF THE LUNAR REPUBLIC IF YOU KEEP ON KILLING THEIR OWN!?"

"I'm sorry, it won't-"

"NO! THIS IS THE LAST TIME. FAIL ME AGAIN, AND YOU'LL BE WITH THEM IN THE DARK ZONE."

"Yes, master."

"Now go! Find me a spy and give me information, not heads, remember. Last. Time."

"It' will be done."

The small pony bowed and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Panting, tired and angry, the slim alicorn let out a howling sound which can be heard even from the deepest darkest parts of space. She stood up from her chair and walked to one of the tubes, but inside this one was a different pony, different from the others, in this one was a tall alicorn, white, and instead of an unrecognizable face, it's face was a swirling blob.

"Soon my dear, soon."
