Lucky Seven or Triple Six?

Teacher Why?

The Crystal Empire at night was always something stunning. Just the way the moon shimmers off the roads was magical. Key word was, now I'm here to take it all. The great thing about being me was that I can get threw the crystal heart barrier due to being some good. No shinny ponies was in sight, the mood was happy but slowly turning. The nightmares growing in numbers, the fear felt great. Looking around from my day dream showed me right in front of the crystal heart. Smiling madly I touched my horn to the spinning heart and watched it turn a dark black. Stepping back I looked up to see the rainbow barrier fading away showing the dark sky. The cold washed over me and it was exhilarating!

"What have you done?!" Turning around only to stare at a crystal guard. His simple light blue armor was new to my eyes and so was his shinny blue mane and his light yellow coat with a matching horn. "Why is the crystal heart black?"

"Do you know the story of King Sombra?" The glowing guard only nodded. "Well that was my teacher long ago."

"But Pegasus don't live that long." Flipping my mane away from my horn only left the guard speechless. "I request to be seen by the rulers of this empire." The guard chuckled.

"You must be crazy, Celestia's sun isn't even up yet." I looked deep into his yellow eyes.

"you're fears fuel me young one. I love it, do you understand magic?" He nodded. "Well this will be simple. Sombra casted a spell on me that only he can remove. This spell allowed me to become... well this. I have the power and the age of a powerful alicorn. So being his protege I have been giving the task to be ruler of this, how should I put it? Hmm, you know what never mind. All that matters is that I bring peace and yet chaos to everywhere, I'm going to due what he couldn't and wouldn't do." The unicorn guard just had his jaw hanging. "OK you are useless to me." Casting a sleeping spell on him I slowly took off to get to the royal chambers of the alicorn and her mortal prince.

"Cadence I just don't think we are ready for kids yet." The male voice felt heavy with worry.

"Awe but Shinny why not. Kids are the greatest thing ever!" Shinny? Reaching the balcony now being able to see who the voices belonged to was nun other than Shinning Armour and Princess Cadence. There chambers are of a light blue with a splash of white and the furniture was light blue. The large bed to my left was light blue but shined like crystal, which also held the two love birds. Cadence being the pink alicorn and Shining being the white unicorn.

"I'm just not ready."

"She is right." Making them both jump and stare at me in rage and confusion.

"How did you get past my guards?" Shining was up first I guess.

"Well lets say your guard, just one, slowed my process down. Oh your fear is... lovely. You would never want to see harm come to your sister or Cadence." They tilted there heads at me. "Well you got lucky this time, I allowed some ponies not to have the problems of most. You are one of them." I stated the last part coldly looking straight at Shining.

"Who are you?" The pink mare asked in a voice I can't place.

"Oh me?" Pointing at my self. "Just a blast from the past, I bring happiness to all the little fillies and yet nightmares to there parents. Wait who am I kidding I bring nightmares to the fillies too." My eyes were slowly turning black. "Well speak of tartarus here comes my teacher." Turning around to look out the balcony was a black fog rolling in with the sinister laughter of the King.

"What have you done?!" All I heard was magic being released and I was free falling to the beautiful streets below. Rolling my eyes I eased open my wings and glided down to the road meeting the fog.

"Teacher it has been a long time no?" The fog slowly morphed into a black unicorn in silver armor, his red eyes and horn glowed along withe the dark magic flowing from his eyes.

"It has young one." His voice dark and sinister brung joy to my heart.

"Well I will be off now, do what ever you got to do." Walking away I quickly thought of Ponyville park and focused my magic, some pained screams later I was on the soft grass of the park looking at the night sky. Smiling I just relaxed and enjoyed the warmer air compared to the Empire. Closing my eyes I could hear hoof steps approaching me.

"Sir park is closed at this time." The gruff stallions voice said.

"Can a pony star gaze?" He gave a sharp snort. "OK I will leave." Standing up and not even looking at the guard I flew straight up to a cloud and laided down. 'Can this day be over?'

Blood littered the green grass but I couldn't find any bodies. But the blood around me was fresh, the smell of it was over whelming. Something caught my eye... literally, the pain was greater than anything I have felt before. Everything on my right side went black.

"Ah, my student you did well but I can't risk having you around...."
