  Thousands of years ago, the Equestrian prince was looking out the castle window and onto Canterlot.
“At long last,” the prince said. “My beautiful, perfect city of Canterlot is complete.”
“YOUR HIGHNESS,” a guard shouted. A guard pegasus flew from the window and crashed in front of him.
“What is the meaning of this,” the prince said.
“There's something here,” the guard breathed heavily. “It's big... and tall... and unpredictable.”
Suddenly, the guard floated in the air and stuck to the ceiling. All of a sudden, Discord appeared in front of the prince.
“Prince Fallen, I presume,” Discord said.
“What the,” the black alicorn said. “Who are you?”
“I'm Justin Beiber in three years,” Discord answered. “Oh, don't tell me you don't remember me.”
“Wait,” Prince Fallen squinted. He widened his eyes when he recognized his intruder. “You're the beast I banished years ago.”
“I was no beast,” Discord said. “But I am now. Now, then, let's get right to the question-and-answer portion of our game.”
“What do you want to know,” Prince Fallen asked.
“How are my parents,” Discord said. “Is Feather Gale and Society Peace well?”
“I'm afraid you're far too late,” Prince Fallen answered. “The thought of losing you was more than their hearts could bare. They fell from heart failures. Personally, I think sentiment is overrated. Now, if you're going to kill me, get it over with.”
“Oh, I'm not here to kill you,” Discord said. “I'm here to thank you.”
“Explain,” Prince Fallen commanded.
“Fine, but I'll only explain my way,” Discord said.

“You expect me to see you with anger and hate
But instead, I must thank you for my fate
All those years in the Outlands outcast and alone
Have given me a strong heart of stone
Now, I can carry out this full-force attack
Without any family or friends to hold me back
So I'll take your throne with a prideful smile
While you get to take my place in exile”

With a snap of his claw, Prince Fallen disappeared and Discord saw Canterlot.
“Oh, no, no, no,” Discord said. “This picture will never do. It needs... chaos.”

“That's the prince who took you from your parents,” Twilight asked. “That's the guy who made you what you were.”
“As plain as the nose on my face,” Discord said. “And here, I thought you'd be dead by the time we meet again, Fallen.”
“I should be,” Prince Fallen said. “But I found a way out of the Outlands and found you sitting on my throne. I was about to strike you behind your back, but I couldn't see or hear Celestia and Luna blasting Discord with the Elements of Harmony. The blast sent a shockwave that pushed me to a tree in the Everfree Forest. The tree bark grew around me because of the Elements' magic. I was trapped inside for thousands of years. One day, salvation came when you put the Elements of Harmony back where they came from.”
“The Tree of Harmony,” Twilight asked.
“Once that happened, the magic hold they had over me was broken and I broke out of the tree I was in,” Prince Fallen continued. “I went back to the Outlands to plan my next move. Then, I found this canyon formed after the Crystal Empire returned. I then found this gate.” He pointed at the stone wall.
“That's a gate,” Shade asked.
“Indeed,” Fallen answered. “It's a gate to a netherworld with no inhabitants and filled with accessible, dark magic that's more powerful than any dark magic found in Equestria. When I harness enough of its dark power, I will finally be able to take back my throne.”
“And I'll be able to feed my Changelings from here to eternity,” Queen Chrysalis said.
“And I get to take back the Crystal Empire,” King Sombra said.
“Well, why did you kidnap Princess Luna,” Twilight asked.
“I tried opening the gate by myself,” Prince Fallen replied, “But I had no success. Then, I came across a Royal Four Prophecy. It spoke that four dark creatures of royalty will open the gate and harness its power. All it requires is a king, a queen, a prince, and...”
“A princess,” Discord finished. “That's why you kidnapped Princess Luna.”
“There was just one problem,” Prince Fallen said. “The prophecy requires all four participants to have pure darkness in their soul. In order for Luna to unlock the gate with us, she needs to change back into NightMare Moon.”
“You can't turn her back into NightMare Moon,” Discord said. “They already worked hard on making her good.”
“We can't force it upon her,” Prince Fallen said. “There's a bit of NightMare Moon's evil still in her and she's been holding it back all this time. We need her to let it go.”
“Which I will never do,” Princess Luna said. “Now that I know why you need me, I definitely won't do anything you want.”
“It's not a request,” Prince Fallen said. “Perhaps you need a little more motivation.”
Prince Fallen's horn glowed and a large bubble covered the group.
“It's a magic-proof bubble,” Twilight said. “We can't break through.”
“We'll see about that,” Discord said. He materialized a giant ax and swung at the shield. The bubble didn't break, but Discord fell to pieces. “Kids, don't play with sharp object. Some pony always gets hurt.”
“Let's change the game,” Prince Fallen said. He levitated the bubble and placed it high in the air.
“Let them go,” Princess Luna said.
“If you say so,” Prince Fallen said.
Fallen let go of the bubble and it was falling down at great speed. Everyone inside was screaming.
“THIS MIGHT BE THE END,” Discord shouted. “AND I JUST WANT YOU ALL TO KNOW SOMETHING.... I CHOSE FLASH FOR YOUR PURPOSE, TWILIGHT!”
“WHAT,” Twilight shouted angrily.
“STOP,” Princess Luna shouted.
“All right,” Prince Fallen said before using his magic to stop the bubble from popping. “If you don't let go of the NightMare Moon darkness, then the shadow will go, the guard will fall down hard, Princess Twilight will say 'good night', and Discord will be a corpse.”
“Thank you, Dr. Seuss,” Discord exclaimed.
“Enough,” Prince Fallen shouted. “I want an answer and I want it now!”
Princess Luna looked at her friends and made her choice.
“I'll do it,” Princess Luna chose. “But first, you must let them out of that bubble.”
“Of course,” Prince Fallen agreed. The bubble popped and the four fell to the ground.
“Princess Luna, wait,” Twilight shouted.
Suddenly, a swarm of Changelings flew down and surrounded the four. And then, Princess Luna's mane covered her entire body. When she came out, she was wearing a black-and-blue armor. She then laughed out loud.
“THE NIGHT WILL LAST FOREVER,” Princess Luna shouted finally becoming NightMare Moon.
“Oh, no,” Twilight Sparkle gasped. “It's NightMare Moon...”
“And Queen Chrysalis...” Shade said.
“And King Sombra...” Flash Sentry shivered.
“And Prince Fallen working together,” Discord finished with fear.
Suddenly, Prince Fallen blasted NightMare Moon and her eyes were glowing.
“What was that,” King Sombra asked.
“It's called insurance,” Prince Fallen said. “Can't risk her turning back good. So I gave her a little spell that put my will over hers.”
“Well, it doesn't matter,” Queen Chrysalis said. “Let's just open the gate.”
“NO,” Twilight Sparkle shouted.
“Don't get in our way,” Prince Fallen said as he blasted from his horn.
“Princess Twilight, look out,” Flash Sentry said pushing Twilight out of the way of the blast. Flash Sentry was pushed by the blast and to the wall.
“FLASH,” Twilight gasped. She galloped to him and picked him up. “Are you all right?”
“I'm fine,” Flash groaned. “'Though I think I sprained my wing.”
“Back to our business,” Prince Fallen said. “Everyone, aim your horns.”
Each of the villains aimed their horns to a different corner of the gate and blasted their horns at them. Suddenly, the door opened revealing a black, ghostly background. The sight of it shook fear down everyone's spines.
“At long last,” Prince Fallen praised. “The darkest power in this or any world will be mine.”
“You mean 'ours',” Queen Chrysalis said.
“No,” Prince Fallen replied. “I actually mean... 'mine'.”
Suddenly, Prince Fallen and NightMare Moon blasted Queen Chrysalis and King Sombra to the wall.
“What is the meaning of this,” King Sombra shouted.
“I only needed you two to help me open the gate,” Prince Fallen explained. “And now, you're no longer of any use to me.”
“What about her,” Queen Chrysalis asked pointing at NightMare Moon. “What's she useful for?”
“I told you,” Prince Fallen said, “Insurance.”
Suddenly the gate opened completely and black smoke shot out of it. The smoke poured itself onto Prince Fallen. In a few minutes, the gate closed and Prince Fallen was all powerful.
