"Gaah!" I jerked awake. My mind still carrying fragments of the vivid dream I just awoke from. Wait, no. Not a dream but a flashback. 'A flashback?' I thought to myself. 'Is it even possible to have a flashback and a dream at the same time?' Apparently. Now all I could dwell on was the preceding events to now. 'After the battle with myself I lost Starswirl but found an arena. I fought, won and kept the chest plate. I returned to the Crystal Kingdom where I began my rule with terror as my agent. And here I stand! King of crstals!' Casting the land into darkness as the crystal's shadow.
Magic coarsed through me and zapped my crown and cape onto my strong body as I stood. I proudly strolled onto my balcony overseeing everypony below. Cool air invaded my fur from the northern winds bringing back memories of the day I murdered my mother. A chuckle escaped my throat as the scenario played once more.
Everypony below slaved away doing my bidding. Every crystal throughout the kingdom would be mine soon. Surely that will grant me what I need to applify dark magic across all of Equestria. Everypony will bow to me and be terrified!
"King Sombra my lord." a gaurd of the palace approached, paused to bow, then rose. "Two ponies were spotted flying this direction. Their estamated time of arrival is two minutes."
"Another attempt to cut me off no doubt. Secure the borders, nopony gets out or in."i commanded. The gaurd stared at me.
"No," he shook as he spoke, "I refuse to decline shuch an act towards our freedom. I am ashamed to have served loyalty to you and your twisted plots. This time I stand my ground."
"Oh, do you now." I locked eyes with him and stared into his soul. All he could do was shake voilently and finally look down.
"Yes, master."
"Wait, I have a better idea. Let them come and you shall pay the price." i levitated him over the balcony edge. Hovering in mid-air.
Two shapes were now visible in the sky. Alicorns. Gasps and shouting were audible from bellow as they neared closer and closer. Soon they were hovering in front of me. One of stunning white light and command. The other a deep blue and barely tainted by the world.
