//------------------------------// // The Coming Storm // Story: Lightning Wolf // by litestardt //------------------------------// It's been a week since the whole Speedy situation. Wolf had his wing over Twilight to keep her close to him while she was reading a book. Twilight was close to Wolf while reading enjoying the moment she was having with him. They both agreed to stay indoors to spend the day close to each other. At Rainbow Dash place Speedy was their with Litestar. "I'm glad you two came on short notice." Said Star Rush "What do you want Rush?" Asked Litestar "Speedy would you like to inform her." Said Rush "Should we be discussing this with Rainbow Dash here?" Asked Speedy Rainbow was about to speak but Rush put his hoof up to stop her before she spoke. "Rainbow has to be here to listen as my loyal soldier I will not lie to her." Said Rush "What are you talking about Rush?" Asked Litestar "I have pledge my loyalty to Rush since he is the true prince of Cloudsdale." Said Rainbow "Rainbow please I just hired the Wonderbolts." Said Rush "So she works for you now." Stated Litestar "Yes now Speedy if you may." Said Rush At Canterlot Zeus and Celestia were entering the war room at the royal guard HQ. "Cloudhunter what's the report?" Asked Celestia as she walked in still wearing her gold armor "Their have been attacks on patrols but nothing our and USN couldn't handle. Also Captain Zone Hunter should be returning soon from a scouting mission." Said Cloudhunter "What kind of scouting mission?" Asked Zeus "They went up north to check if the enemy force are there and to make sure all the men made it to the crystal empire." Said the Lt. Col of delta company "Thank you Lt.Col for the information." Said Celestia Captain Zone Hunter finally got back with the scouting party. "Sir I have returned." Said Zone "What's the report captain?" Asked Celestia "Ma'am the report is that all troops made it safe but we have worst news." Said Zone "What the bad news son?" Asked Zeus "King Sombra prison has been destroyed which means that he is free to roam Equestria." Said Zone Hunter Celestia knew that Sombra with go after his empire that he lost to Cadance and Shining. "Cloudhunter contract Shining and Cadance and let the elements know too. We're going to need them in the crystal empire." Said Celestia "Lt.Col inform the elite six about this information and tell them to get their asses to the crystal empire." Said Zeus Both officers nodded their head understanding their orders. Cloudhunter started to write a letter to Princess Cadance and then towards Princess Twilight. The Lt.Col put his paw on his head to send a telepathy message to the elite six. In a disclosed location "Wake up Princess Luna, Wake up." Said a voice Luna slowly opened her eyes. She was back in her castle and Celestia was standing over her bed. "Tai!? What are you doing here?" Asked Luna "I came here to wake you up." Said Celestia "Why?" Asked Luna Celestia giggled "Silly sister, it's time you lower the moon and I raise the sun." "Is it that time all ready?" Asked Luna "Yes yes it is." Celestia said as she started to walk towards the door. "Come on Lulu it's time to get out of bed." Luna watched as Celestia open the door to her room to walk outside. The moment the door open up an explosion happen that killed Celestia and Luna in mere seconds. Luna woke up after the explosion in a cage. She looked around her surrounding frighten from her dream and not knowing where she was. She took in her surroundings and notice she was in a cave. "I see your finally awake Princess." Said a voice behind her Luna turned around to see the silver wolf looking at her. She then remember that this wolf was the one that attack the castle and knocked her out and by the looks of it, as a prison too. "I remember you." Said Luna "I would hope. You've been seeing me everyday." Said Fenrir "I know I'm just shocked that your the only one I've seen." Said Luna "I thought you worked for someone?" "I do, just he's busy welcoming a old friend of yours." Said Fenrir "What do you mean an old friend of mine?" Asked Luna When she said that the door behind Fenrir open up to show four more creatures walk in. "Ah my lord your back." Said Fenrir "Yes, how is the prisoner?" Asked a green unicorn "She's awake and not in a good mood Black Hole." Said Fenrir "So your Black Hole. The unicorn who attack the Cloudsdale Arena." Said Luna "Ah princess Luna I see that your awake." Said Black "Yes and I will only give you one warning. Let me go now and surrender or face my wrath." Said Luna "Well before you say anything else, I have an offer for you." Said Black "What can you offer me that I will betray my sister." Said Luna "Simple you help us as nightmare moon and you will rule the crystal empire by my side." Said deeper voice from behind Black Hole Luna recognized the deep voice and said the name in fear "Sombra". Sombra showed himself to Luna who was still in the cage. "Hello princess Luna." Said Sombra "How did you escape your prison?" Asked Luna "With the help of my new friend here." Said Sombra "This is true I did break the seal." Said Black Hole "Why would I help you?" Asked Luna "Since people will be able to admire your beautiful night." Said Sombra Luna looked at Sombra then at Black Hole and then Fenrir. She thought about the offer for awhile. "I would never join you guys." Said Luna "You guys will be stop. We have one of the strongest forces on the planet." "A strong force is nothing without the Intel!" Snapped Black "And we have all the Intel." "What do you mean?" Asked Luna now scared "I mean how do you think we knew you guys were in the castle while the battle was happening." Said Black with an evil grin Luna eyes were now in fear knowing that they had that information on them. "That information was given out right before the battle." Said Luna "Anything is possible when you have spies in the royal guard and USN." Said Fenrir "So will you join us now?" Asked Black Luna was silent for minutes and then she yelled "You bastard I will never join you!" Black Hole sighed "I wish you did join us Nightmare moon." "Don't call me that." Said Luna "Fenrir, drain her." Order Black "Yes my lord." Said Fenrir Fenrir came up to the cage with a magical device while Black Hole and Sombra leave the room. "What is that thing?" Asked Luna, now frighten "This thing will extract your magic but don't worry you'll have still enough to live." Said Fenrir as he pointed the device at her Luna saw the device spin and she felt pain she never felt before. She felt like somepony or something was crushing her head with 1.5 million pounds of pressure. Luna kept screaming at the top of her lungs as she had her magic extracted from her. Finally the device turned off and Luna collapse on the floor of the cage. Her eyes barely able to keep her eyes open as she saw a puma and griffin walk into the light. "Don't you think you enjoy that a little too much?" Asked the puma "Yeah Fenrir, that was a little brutal." Said the griffin Fenrir snapped at them "I don't care what you guys think. As long as I make the מזדיינת wolf suffer for what he did to me and when he's suffered enough, I'll kill the one he loves just like he did to me." Said Fenrir "Well Fenrir that all depends if this next attack is a success." Said the puma "With king Sombra leading our men the Crystal empire will fall." Said Fenrir Luna then blacked out from the pain she felt when her magic was extracted. Back in Ponyville during Luna's meeting Sev and Azrael were walking around Ponyville while Speedy, Litestar and Rush were having a meeting at Rainbow's house. They were heading to the Library to hang out with Wolf. "So what do you think the girls and Rush are talking about?" Asked Sev "According to Speedy, they are talking about Wolf and him losing control because he's in love with Twilight." Said Azrael "Really? I would think she was more of a control factor do it." Said Sev "Why would you say that?" Asked Azrael "Since he wouldn't want to lose control with the one he loves." Said Sev "You have a good point there since last time he didn't lose control in till.." Azrael started to look sad "Yeah lets not talk about that. Especially around Lightning Wolf or he might lose it." Said Sev "Well if Rush thinks that she a threat we got to make him see it the other way around." Said Azrael "Good point and plus Wolf as always been there for you and I so it's time to return the favor." Said Sev "Agreed. We always have been close to Wolf than Rush." Said Azrael "Yeah I agree." Said Sev At Twilight's castle Twilight and Wolf were cuddling with each other after taking a little nap. They were still in Twilight's private study so that no one could disturb them. Twilight then heard a knock on the door. "Who is it?" Asked Twilight "Twilight open up it's Spike and I have a letter from the princess." Said Spike Twilight got up while Wolf was receiving a message from the Lt.Col. When Twilight got to the door she open it to see Spike with a scared face. "What's wrong Spike?" Asked Twilight "Just read it!" Said Spike giving the scroll to Twilight Twilight open the scroll and read it in her head. Dear Princess Twilight, Princess Celestia requires you and your friends to head to the crystal empire. Your brother and Princess Cadance are in danger and will need your and your friends help. King Sombra is leading the enemy forces towards the crystal empire to take it back by force and to kidnap Princess Cadance. You and your friends are the only ones that can stop Sombra with your rainbow power. Good luck and be safe Celestia personal guard Cloudhunter Twilight dropped the scroll after reading it. She couldn't believe that Sombra escape his prison and was now leading troops towards the crystal empire. "Wolf I have""I know Twilight they just informed the elite six. We need to get to the crystal empire and fast if we want to protect Shining and Cadance." Said Wolf "Only if there was a way to teleport there." Said Twilight "All elites head to the center of town with your VIPs. We need to head to the crystal empire." Said Wolf as his paw was on his head and tail was glowing "Why did you say that out loud?" Asked Twilight "I was sending a message to my squad mates to meet us there." Said Wolf "Wait that's how you guys send information to each other?" Asked Twilight "Yes it is and now we have to get going if we're going to save your brother and his wife." Said Wolf The two bolted it out Twilight castle heading to the center of town. When Rush heard this message he just finish talking to Speedy, Litestar, and Rainbow and all four of them headed for the center of town. Sev and Azrael decided to grab the other four elements before heading to the center of town. When everyone arrived at the center of town Lightning went in the middle of the group. "Wolf why did you tell is to come here when we got to take the train?" Asked Applejack "Since we are going to teleport to the crystal empire. So sis I'm going to need your help on this." Said Wolf Litestar walked towards Lightning to help him prepare a spell to teleport the whole group. The next thing everyone knew was big light coming from the center of town and then the elites and mane six disappeared. Back at Canterlot "Princess we got word that the mane six and the elites are in route to the crystal empire." Said the Lt.Col "Good. The empire is going to need all the help they could get." Said Celestia At the crystal empire Shining Armor was at his castle balcony when Cadance came over to him. "What's wrong Shining?" Asked Cadance "Something just doesn't feel right." Said Shining "Does it involve with Wolf and Rush?" Asked Cadance "No I feel like there is a greater evil coming here." Said Shining A guard came to the balcony rushing to speak with Shining at that moment. "Sir we have a letter from the royal guard HQ." Said a orange Pegasus "Let me see that Sentry." Said Shining grabbing the message with his magic Shining started to read the message from the HQ and stared at it in horror. Cadance was wondering what the message said but then she saw something she wish she never had. "Honey you should look at this." Said Cadance Shining came over to see what Cadance was looking at and saw the enemy force. It looked like their were over a thousands troops coming towards the crystal empire all being lead by king Sombra. "Cadance stay inside the castle." Said Shining "What about you?" Asked Cadance "I'm going to say hi to the former king." Said Shining
