	"Good, this saves me the trouble of tracking you down," Eclipse deadpanned.
"Sombra actually did something, never would have guessed that," commented Discord.
"Cut the crap, what do you want?" Eclipse said, not even turning around to meet discords look of happiness.
"You can be such a bore sometimes you know," the king of chaos said as he ate a book. 
"I'm waiting for my answer," Eclipse said with venom.
"I want to be apart of your little kingdom, it seems so interesting," Discord said as he burped out a leaf.
"Easy, just relax," Eclipse said as her scales climbed Discords body. "Look into my eyes." Discord did as he rarely did, as he was told. The wave of colors washed over him as he became clay in Eclipse's hoofs. "You will obey me, you will not do anything if I do not tell you to do it, and you never speak to anyone but me," Eclipse said with glee. It was so much fun making the most uncontrollable beings in the world and making him nothing more than a mindless slave. Her aura entered Discord, sealing his fate. The transformation was, odd. His legs became serpent legs, as did all lamias, but his upper half simple be came what looked like a dragon's. He must have been a dragon before he became the spirit of chaos. 
Then the Eclipse felt true pain. the metal that made up her crown dug it's way into her, warping around her bones. Her aura grew to encompass a yard in every direction. The wisps around her eyes became black. The whites of her eyes became red and her iris' became purple. 
Welcome to the kingdom, Snake," Eclipse almost laughed at how boring of a name that was.
"How ever you want me to feel, my queen," Snake said with the same vigor that Discord used to have.
"Perfect, now go tell the others to improve everyone, but save at least 5 for me," Eclipse told her slave. Snake was silent as he went off.



Celestia was trapped. Darkness sealed her off from the rest of the castle. Who did this? As Celestia pondered that, she realized she could not sense Luna or Twilight. No, Celestia thought as her heart broke.
"Hello, teacher," Eclipse said as she walked into her privet chambers.
"I fear that you have come to turn me," Celestia said with a monotone. Inside she was heartbroken. The two ponies closest to her were taken by darkness.
"That is correct," Eclipse said as her dark aura washed over the princess. Weakening her will. Eclipse's scales slithered up the sun princess' body, slightly choking her. Celestia shut her eyes, but Eclipse pulled them open forcing her to stare at Eclipse's tool of corruption. Celestia hasn't lost full control, Eclipse thought as she said "You will always obey me, because I am your student," 
"Always obey," The princess said as she lost more and more control.
"Darkness will not hurt you," Eclipse said as her scales nearly stopped the ruler of Equestria from breathing.
"Darkness will not hurt," Celestria drouled as her mind broke down, her feelings of heart break being to much to take. Game set match, Eclipse thought as her aura crawled into the ruler of Equestria. Her legs became a snakes tale, her coat turned green, and her mane's colors changed to greens, purples, and blacks.
Eclipse felt a jolt of pain as her snake like mane became entangled with the dark metal that now flowed throughout her body. Part of her fur became black armor with jewels attached to it.
"Let's get going, Venom," it feels amazing to finally be the one in charge, Eclipse thought as they teleported out.
