"It will be ok my love we will be fine." Lance said smiling gently to her but in reality he was nervous as well. He refused to show his fear in front of the one he loved all it would do is solidify the fear in them both which could be fatal against this enemy. The shadow stopped before Lance and Luna they both stood resolute then the large shadow solidified into The Lord of Fear King Sombra he stared down Lance and Luna. Luna recoiled which King Sombra noticed he walked up to her placing a hoof on her chin looking at her before smacking her aside Lance reacted instantly tackling the fallen king but he disappeared in a mist of darkness he appeared leaving the shadow surrounding Lance. "King Sombra Lord of Fear and Nightmares my name is Lance Nightmare your worst enemy." The dark cloud was absorbed into Lance only a small splotch of black appeared on his pure coat. "That fear was weak try harder otherwise I will just have to absorb you into myself and deal with you like all the other nightmares." Lance said smiling Sombra didn't flinch at this he could tell Lance was tired and could barely maintain himself he walked up to Lance tapping his horn with his hoof. "This should keep you busy till I am done you weak fool." The King said as Lance stood there tears streaming down his cheeks the darkness creeping up his fur encasing him in a dark crystalline structure. Luna was already in Lance's dream trying to snap him out of it the darkness stopped moving it receded even quicker than before the crystals drained of their energy shattered. "Tell you once shame on you, Tell you twice you're just stupid." Lance said shaking his head. "Give me a challenge you bucking idiot. Before I just end all of this." Lance said mocking him a hoof slammed into his face throwing him back. "Ok maybe that will work." Lance said slowly getting up only to be hit back down. "Now you really piss me off." Lance said hitting him back with a blast of magical energy. "You fool you dare attack a king you will perish for that insolence." King Sombra boomed towards Lance. "Yea I always had a thing against King's too much power to run their own home." Lance said standing up on his hind legs. "And last time I checked you were defeated by a bunch of mares!" Lance yelled at him which only enraged King Sombra. "Awww did I hit a sore nerve come on I'm right here Mr. Fallen King." Lance yelled arms stretched out. King Sombra charged Lance impaling him with his horn but Lance disappeared in a puff of smoke. "OH COME ON TRY HARDER DAMN YOU!" An army of Lances yelled. "TRY HARDER! DON'T MAKE ME COME OVER AND MAKE YOU!" They boomed in time that smile the one that could make even the insane flinch. "ENOUGH!" Sombra yelled as a blade formed from the shadows slashing through most of the clones until it slashed across the real Lance. "Enough of these trick time to show you true magic." The shadows grabbed Luna encasing her in darkness Lance limped over to her slamming her hooves onto the shadows they burned him. He could only think the pain she is going through. Something snapped in Lance at this revelation. "Let her go..." Lance whispered King Sombra felt the air crackle with magic. "Let her go." Lance ordered as he turned around to him his coat pitch black forming a dark shroud around him. "LET MY WIFE GO!" Lance yelled as the shroud solidified around him his body forming armor. "I am Lance NIGHTMARE!" He yelled as he looked over at Luna's prison then back at Sombra. "I am The protector of Nightmares." Lance said as he walked towards Sombra he took a step back. "I WILL SHOW YOU TRUE NIGHTMARES A HELL YOU CAN'T ESCAPE!" Lance charged Sombra to be charged back at he stopped when Lance formed a sword out of shadows they clashed in an explosion of darkness. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Luna was trapped she tried her hardest to escape only to be burned by the dark magic it was infecting her She was scared. "LANCE HELP ME I DON'T WANT TO BECOME HER AGAIN!" She yelled hoping that Lance could hear her but The magic was infecting her very soul it solidified around her changing her... The cocoon of darkness shifted as it expanded a tear formed the darkness poured out Lance shuddered feeling the pain the true nightmare appear. He looked back to see Luna flying off towards Canterlot but she was no longer Luna she was Nightmare Moon once again. "I WILL COVER THIS LAND IN ETERNAL NIGHT!" She cackled as she flew away towards Canterlot. Lance looked at Sombra darkness in his soul began to surface. "A true nightmare can kill that's what I am going to do to you Sombra I'm going to kill you and save my wife no matter what." Lance said as the shadows encased Sombra tightening around him draining him into nothing. "I WILL MAKE YOU SUFFER FOREVER SOMBRA A PUNISHMENT WORSE THAN DEATH I WILL ABSORB YOU!" He Bellowed as the shadow was absorbed into Lance when the process was finished Lance fell to the ground the corruption was suffocating But it subsided after a few minutes he needed to get to Canterlot to Stop Luna.
