"Your Highness!"
"Yes, Captain Dark Magics?"
"Rainbow has made it past our Zettai kakujitsu senshi, and is on the way to the Shōheki no denchi no bankā!"
I swear, sometimes I get put with the most incompetent guards. I bet I could replace them with anything inanimate, and have as much success. But still, there must be a way to take down that insufferable mare, who I know will be my downfall, demise, or both!
"Make the Kyūkei no dangan jigoku guard the battery, and sent out our unstallioned drones out so we don't lose any troops. We have to make sure that she doesn't get into our stronghold and reunite with the elements."
After sending Dark Magics off to organize his troops, I went to check on how my scientists were coming with the Roiyaruti· anaiareitā, my final defense for if Rainbow ever makes it to our castle and gets past our absolutely insane lock system: Enter the Saigo no kumiawase and enter the password, or destroy its core.
"Our Queen, the RA is just about finished. We just need to make sure that the Truest Nightmare-"
"USE THE LANGUAGE WE FORGED FOR THIS COUNTRY!" Despite being a corrupted and potentially ethereal being, I still knew the ins and out of the Royal Canterlot Voice.
"Oh, sorry, HONTO NO AKUMU, is the power source so that you can send dark energy and the Hanamochinaranai māre will not be able to counteract it."
"Perfect. The insufferable mare will be unable to destroy us now..."
I still swear I could hear someone call me a 'hypocrite' while I was laughing maniacally.

"Spitfire, by the way, why have you been calling things terms that sound like they're all the way from where Zecora could be from?" I swear, after taking AV down, I just needed a bit of R+R and a chat with Spitfire.
"Do you really wanna know?"
"Yes."
"Okay..." she sighed "When Luna came across the Truest Nightmare 2 years ago, it... technically killed her. What you're fighting against is her corpse corrupted by the Nightmare's ever-mystical powers. Honestly, I'm surprised she's only gotten wrinkly instead of outright decomposing."
I couldn't respond... Luna was... DEAD? I thought Alicorns were immortal! Well, maybe her BRAIN was corrupted and not her body! Yeah that's i- oh, who am I kidding? The Princess of the Moon is gone, and it must have been a heck of a time to get over the loss of 1 of the two princesses.
"Well, at least Celestia was there to keep the sun and moon in check!"
"..."
"... She's a goner too, isn't she?"
"Yeah. Princess Twilight's been trying to keep the sun up for hours at a time for the past two years. Poor thing must be starved of magic."
That thing killed both princesses and has been torturing my friends for the past two years! "Spitfire! I'm going in!" I apparently completely forgot about the language, because Spitfire tried to interject before I flew off to what was Ponyville.
