The Dark Lord’s Apprentice
Twilight stood there staring at her yellow irises, a tear went down her cheeks. Twilight then said “What have I become? What have I done?” Twilight looked at the bodies of guard’s and gasped, she jumped back and said “No, please don’t be dead. You were unarmed! Please!” Twilight ran up to one of the guards, and put her ear on his chest. There was no heartbeat; Twilight then said “No, no please!” Twilight went over to the other one. There was a heartbeat; Twilight listened as the heart beat faded away. Twilight shook the guard’s body and said “Come on wake up, please!” Twilight felt through the force the life leaving the Guard’s body. Twilight pressed her face against the guard’s chest and cried.
Twilight stood up, she gasped and turned around Vader was standing there. Twilight stepped back in fear, her iris's stayed yellow. Twilight then said “Vader, please. I didn't mean too.” Vader looked emotionlessly at the guard’s bodies. Vader turned to Twilight and said “Very good, your journey into the dark side has begun.” Twilight then said in horror “No, I’m never going to the dark side.” Twilight smirked confidentially while Vader looked at the bodies, and said “Dahn, would never forgive you for your little accident, you killed two guards in you hate and anger.” Twilight then said “No, he would!” Vader continued and lied “He would not forgive you, neither would Celestia or your brother. To them you are a monster.” Twilight gasped and said “No, it’s not true. It’s not possible!” Twilight stood there, crying and then Vader turned to her and said “However there is one solution.” Twilight looked up and said in desperation “What?” Vader told Twilight the solution “Join me, and I can complete your training. And destroy the ones who are oppressing you.” Twilight gasped and thought about it. She had no other way, she was trapped. Twilight made up her mind. Twilight then bowed down before Vader and promptly said “What is thy bidding, my master?”
Vader looked at his new apprentice and said “Rise.” Twilight rose, and followed Vader. As they walked Vader said “Go to the moon of Vanat. There you will find the NLR congress. Wipe them out. I want them all dead, no survivors, once you are finished we will deal with the new Equestrian Alliance. Twilight you understand?” Twilight answered Vader and said “Yes my Master.” Vader then said “Go my apprentice.”
Twilight walked to a shuttle with Vader. Vader then stopped her and gave her Obi Wan Kenobi’s old lightsaber. Twilight looked at it, and clipped it to a belt she made back on Equestria. Twilight bowed before Vader and headed towards the Lambda shuttle. There she took off and flew to the moon of Vanat. Vader watched and breathed heavily and thought “The dominoes are falling now.”
Dahn stood there in the meeting room, he then collapsed Celestia and Luna ran to his side. Celestia then asked “Dahn, are you ok?” Dahn weakly stood up, and said “Twilight, all I can sense is darkness. I can't sense Twilight anymore.” Celestia then asked “What does that mean?” Dahn said “It means many things; she could be with Vader now. She could have killed Vader in her rage. Or worst, she could have replaced Vader.” Shining Armor heard this and said “What?” Dahn then said “You heard me; she could be now with Vader.” Shining Armor broke down into tears. Cadance who was in the room, knelt down and tried to comfort the crying Shining Armor. It was no use, to try and comfort him.
Cadance then said “Shining Armor, Twilight will be fine. Believe me.” Shining Armor, cried harder over his sister. Cadance put her wing around Shining Armor and kissed him. Shining Armor smiled a bit. Shining Armor started to get it together; he had a grip on reality. Shining Armor then weakly said “What’s next?” Celestia then said “We need to liberate Twilight from Vader’s grip.” Dahn thought quietly and then interjected “How about we figure out if she really is with Vader. We have to be sure.” Celestia nodded and said “How about this, we scout her out. Then we try and bring her back.” Luna thought quietly and said “How about we gather leads. And then search for her. Then it would be safer and wouldn't risk us a loss of life.” Celestia then nodded and said “We must keep an eye out for any issues.”
As Twilight’s shuttle landed on the volcanic moon that orbited Vanat, a hooded pony walked off. The pony turned around and saw the shuttle take off. Twilight walked towards a compound and opened the gates. Twilight shut the gates close and entered the stronghold.
The NLR council members were discussing how to make peace. When then Twilight entered. The NLR council member’s turned around and stared at her. Twilight levitated Obi Wan’s lightsaber, and turned it on. The council member’s stepped back.
Twilight then began her slaughter; she ran up to a council member and sliced his head off. Twilight levitated her lightsaber so she could kill the members. As Twilight impaled one member, she threw his body aside, and turned around and slaughtered several others. Twilight then jumped up, and sliced down a mare Pegasi. Then Twilight walked towards a mare, unicorn who begged “I have family! Please Twilight! This isn't you!” Twilight instead sliced down the unicorn, and turned around and slaughtered more. Twilight then sliced down, an earth pony colt that tried to hide under a table. Twilight then killed several more. As she slaughtered them she shed a few tears, but got it back together. Twilight turned to the last one, and listened to the pleads of the Pegasi mare, as she begged and begged. Twilight sliced down the Pegasi and walked towards the exit of the compound. Twilight’s iris’s glowed yellow. Twilight headed back to the shuttle and took off, and flew back to the Executor waiting for her next mission.
Luna was sitting at an old security monitor, when then she saw something. It was from the NLR council on the volcanic moon of Vanat. Luna sat there watching Twilight slaughter all the council members. Luna was stunned, as Luna stared in horror she called out “Celestia, I think I've found Twilight.” Celestia hurried into the room, as Luna replayed the recording. As Celestia watched she said out loud “No, it’s not true. That’s impossible!” Celestia couldn't believe it, her favorite student was now a monster. Celestia then said “I will do anything to get her back, anything.” Dahn entered and saw the footage and said “She is lost, she is confused. Something isn't right with her.” Dahn thought and said “I think Vader deceived her.” Celestia gasped, and said “No it’s not possible.” Everypony gasped, and stood there.
Sombra’s star fleet flew through the asteroid field when then Sombra got the news “Twilight Sparkles, slaughtered the entire NLR council, without any mercy.” Sombra smiled, and said “Good, she is one step closer to being a dark magic master. Tell me who ordered her to do this?” The messenger said “Darth Vader.” Sombra looked at the messenger and said “Excuse me?” The messenger nodded and said “Sir, our intelligence units say Darth Vader ordered the deaths.” Sombra growled, and he knew things weren't going his way.
Twilight stood there, Obi Wan’s lightsaber was at her side. She meditated; she sensed misery in her friends. Twilight then sensed Shining Armor’s distress, and Celestia’s distress. Twilight’s thought’s conflicted. As she stood up her mind said “Twilight they want you, they can help you!” Twilight walked down the hall, crushing things in her way with the force. The other side of her mind said “They want to kill you. They are lying!” Twilight looked at herself in the mirror, light shined on one side of her face, darkness engulfed the other side. Twilight sighed and walked towards Vader’s meditation chamber. Then she entered, she stood there patiently.
Vader turned around, his mask was on. Twilight bowed down and said “What is thy bidding my master?” Vader then said “Go to Equestria, and strike down the Equestrian Alliance’s leaders. I want some alive. I want them to know you are now with me.” Twilight then said while bowing “Yes my master.”
As Twilight walked towards her shuttle, she took off. And flew towards Equestria. TIE fighter’s escorted her, as the shuttle flew into the forests. As the Shuttle landed, Equestrian Alliance soldiers surrounded it. Dahn was with them.
Dahn stood there watching the ramp lower, he turned on his lightsaber. As Dahn got ready, he saw a purple Alicorn walking off. Dahn stepped back and said “Is that you Twilight.” Twilight opened her eyes, showing off her yellow irises. Dahn stepped back, and said “Twilight, Vader is controlling you!” Twilight smirked and responded “Vader, is teaching me more things than you could ever teach me.”
Dahn noticed Twilight turned on her Lightsaber. Dahn got ready, as Twilight jumped up, and prepared to strike at his lightsaber. Dahn stepped back, as the fury of slices came at him. When then he noticed Twilight threw several of the soldiers, around him into the forest. Twilight struck away, at Dahn’s saber. Dahn jumped back, as Twilight attempted to force push him into a tree. Dahn jumped up and force slammed into the ground, Twilight jumped in time to avoid the slam. Dahn ran towards Twilight getting ready to slice her down. But Twilight force pushed Dahn into a tree. Dahn got up, and levitated log, and threw it at Twilight. Twilight force pushed the log back, the log went flying towards Dahn who dodged it in time.
Dahn got up, and ran towards Twilight. As he ran he lifted a rock, and threw it at Twilight. Twilight was hit by it, Twilight wasn’t injured she continued dueling. As Twilight struck at Dahn’s lightsaber it started raining. The rain fell down, as the sparks flew. Then Twilight kicked Dahn as she saw soldiers running towards her. Twilight ran to the shuttle, and took off.
Dahn stood there as Shining Armor ran up next to him. Dahn watched the shuttle fly into the clouds. Shining Armor then said “Was that Twilight?” Dahn turned to Shining Armor and said “I’m afraid it was.” Shining Armor gasped, and said “You’re lying right?” Dahn shook his head and said “No, I’m not that was Twilight.” Shining Armor cried out “The monster she has become.” Shining Armor walked towards the HQ.
Twilight bowed before Vader, and said “My master, they know that I am with you.” Vader turned around and said “Very good.” Vader then turned around and walked down the hallways, of the Executor. Twilight ran up to him and said “Master. What next?” Vader turned to her and said “Go and find King Sombra. Bring him to me. Boba Fett will assist you.” Twilight bowed before Vader and said “As you wish my master.”
Twilight got to her shuttle and flew towards the asteroid field, and then the Slave 1 joined her. They then both entered hyperspace.
