//------------------------------// // Chapter 3: The Lost Brothers // Story: Nyx Midnight and the Moon Dragon // by Shadow Master //------------------------------// And just before Captain Moltzar could fire his stun arrow, Princess Ember quickly knocked him off. Hie stun arrow flew off to the sky! Captain Moltzar groaned as his eyes returned to normal state. Princess Ember sighed in relief as she turned and glared at him. She held him up high! "What the heck was that?! Are you trying to get the innocent pony killed?!" Princess Ember demanded in anger. Captain Moltzar gasped in shock and concern, "Wait?! What?! I did what?!" "Don't play dumb with me! You almost trying to get the dragons on war with ponies, you idiot! What were you thinking?!" "What?! That's absurd! I don't kill a child! I always be careful of what I'm doing!" "Oh yeah? You don't seem to care when Prisoner 626 used that kid as shield! You're such a liar!" "What?! That's impossible!" Captain Moltzar protested in shock. Princess Ember pointed at Fluttershy's Cottage. He turned and used his binocular to see. He was in shock and annoyed. He groaned, "Why that little runt! Using the little pony for a shield! This is even low of you!" Phobos took a deep breathe before blew a raspberry at Captain Moltzar while making funny faces at him. He even shouted 'I don't even know you'. Nyx was confused about his behavior, but nevertheless, she giggled happily and amusingly at his jokes. Captain Moltzar gasped in shock. He roared in anger as he charged straight at Phobos and Nyx. Princess Ember and the Dragoon Brigade Crew yelped in concern as they quickly chased after him. Phobos barked wildly and happily at them. Nyx was confused and concerned for her newly pet. And just before she could turned, Princess Ember and the crew jumped and pushed Captain Moltzar to left side of bushes in hiding. Fluttershy and Twilight Sparkle approached Nyx and Phobos. They noticed the Moon Dragon continued barking. They looked around of their surroundings as they found nothing. Fluttershy annoyed as she stomped on Phobos's tail, in making him yelled painfully. She poured a quarter of water into his mouth. As she let go from stomping his tail, Phobos coughed heavily as he tried to spit fire out hard. "Bad Dragon! This will teach you for barking at nothing!" Fluttershy said sternly. She turned to Twilight Sparkle as she passed it to her friend, "This will come in handy. But don't use on Spike. He's a good dragon." Twilight Sparkle winked happily, "Got it. Thanks. Come on, Nyx; let's go now." Nyx nodded happily. Twilight Sparkle led Nyx and Phobos out as they were all headed back to Ponyville Town. The Dragons got out from the bushes as they had their own discussion. "I almost had him!" Captain Moltzar exclaimed in anger. Princess Ember punched his face hard, "We're at the Land of Ponies, dummy! So, you can't attack and you can't be seen! Look at us, genius; we're the monsters to those ponies! We need to blend in. Obviously, they know humans but never met other creatures that has tails, strange skin and wings. And not to mention, teeth - they hate cannibals." Captain Moltzar hummed thoughtfully before smiled, "I have the idea! And you're gonna love it!" Princess Ember sighed, "And why do I get the feeling that I'm gonna regret it..." Twilight Sparkle, Nyx and Phobos arrived at the Cutie Mark Crusaders' Clubhouse. Ben and Spike were there to check on Cutie Mark Crusaders' latest birthday present. The latter group noticed Twilight Sparkle and Nyx arriving. They quickly hid all of their tools and project behind the tree house. They then greeted Twilight Sparkle and Nyx. "Hey, Twilight! How's everything going?" Ben asked happily. "Everything's fine." Twilight Sparkle replied. She noticed Nyx and Phobos approached as her daughter introduced the pet to Cutie Mark Crusaders. She hummed in concern, "Though if it weren't for that pet Nyx has chosen." Spike whistled, "I didn't know Fluttershy had dragon for pets." "She doesn't, Spike. She just received him from last night when he was badly hurt. To be honest, I don't know how this dragon get here." "Yeah... I thought I'm the only dragon here at Equestria." Twilight Sparkle sighed in concern, "Not really. Not since I've lost my brothers..." "Huh? What?" Spike asked in concern. Twilight Sparkle shook her head in denial as she approached her family and friends. Cutie Mark Crusaders commented and remarked in amusement about how cute and adorable Phobos. Apple Bloom nodded, "I'd never thought having a dragon like Phobos would make a good pet." "Yeah! This is so awesome! I always want to have that like yours!" Scootaloo remarked. Sweetie Belle squealed as she hugged Phobos tightly and passionately, "For a dragon, he's so soft and adorable to hug! I so want to use him for make up!" "Me too! Me three!" Twist and Dinky Doo exclaimed happily. Pipsqueak placed his adventure hat on Phobos's head, "He can be my sidekick for the adventure! I always love Daring Do a lot!" Phobos groaned before stuck his tongue out in disgust. Cutie Mark Crusaders giggled happily as they all patted and hugged him happily. "I hate hugging..." Phobos commented in annoyance. Ben chuckled in amazement as he patted Phobos's head gently, "I hate to admit it. He's kinda cute and cuddly like Koga." Phobos groaned in annoyance a bit before sniffed happily. He smelled the sense from Ben's hoof, making him licked his mouth and drooling happily. He took a bite on Ben's hard. Ben yelped and screamed painfully as he tried to shake Phobos off of him! Everyone yelped in shock and worry. Nyx yelped in concern as she pulled Phobos's tail hard, "Phobos! Bad dragon! Bad dragon! Stop biting Ben's hoof! Let him go!" Nyx quickly a big slap on Phobos's head very hard. The Moon Dragon yelped painfully as he let go of biting Ben's hoof. Phobos rubbed his head gently. Twilight Sparkle checked on Ben's hoof while kissing his gently. "Are you okay?" Twilight Sparkle asked in concern. Ben hissed as he rubbed his hoof gently, "Yeah, I'm okay. Man, he was feisty and wild..." "Yeah, no kidding..." Twilight Sparkle snarled a bit as he glared at Phobos. She turned to Nyx, "Nyx, are you sure you want to keep him as your pet?" Nyx groaned in annoyance, "Yes, mummy! I want him to be my pet! Honestly, I thought Applejack is worst being overprotective on Apple Bloom!" "Hey!" Apple Bloom exclaimed in annoyance, "I resent that!" Twilight Sparkle sighed, "Either way, I don't trust him. He's up to something. I know it." "Why, Twilight? Is there something you want to tell us?" Spike asked in concern, "Why are you so against Phobos so much?" Everyone looked at Twilight Sparkle, with their concern and scared looks. She grunted in annoyance before she sighed in defeat. "It's complicated to explain. I need to get some air," Twilight Sparkle said in concern, "Just make sure that thing stay out of troubles, Nyx. I'll be back soon. I need to see Applejack for a while." As Twilight Sparkle walk away, everyone looked concern and worry about her. Ben and Spike decided to follow and check on her. "So, what's next?" Nyx asked. Apple Bloom hummed while looking at Phobos, "Maybe we should check more about him. After all, we'd never get the chance to know how great to have a dragon as a friend and pet!" "That's a great, great idea!" Sweetie Belle exclaimed happily. Scootaloo squealed, "Yeah, totally! It will be awesome for all of us to get a cutie mark about training the dragon! All we gonna do it or what?!" "YEAH!" Cutie Mark Crusaders cheered wildly and happily, "CUTIE MARK DRAGON TRAINERS!" Phobos groaned in annoyance, "Oh joy..." As Cutie Mark Crusaders chatted happily while checking and talking with Phobos, Princess Ember and her team were behind of bushes. The Dragons were spying on the ponies and Phobos. The Dragons are now ponies - Princess Ember is a Pegasus with Spitfire's mane and tail style, and her Cutie Mark is three diamond shapes while Captain Moltzar is Unicorn with several braided mane and tail worn the professional hunter's uniform, and his Cutie Mark is tiger symbol. "This is the most stupidest idea you ever come with!" Princess Ember complained angrily, "I'm- I'm one of them!" "Just relax, my friend," Captain Moltzar said in amusement, "Until we catch that little bugger, we stay low as one of them. After all, it's better than that stupid costume those ponies has come with. Seriously, Cranky Green Dragon?! Honestly, who would fall for that trick? Her kind are extinct!" Princess Ember sighed, "Fine. Just make sure that I don't have to exchange some flowers or necklaces or anything that ponies do." "As you wish, just follow my lead; I've been hunting for a long time." A few meters away from Cutie Mark Crusaders' clubhouse, Twilight Sparkle walked towards the lake, where she took a deep breathe for few times. Ben and Spike approached her from behind. They checked on her if she was okay or not. "Hey, Twi? You're okay?" Ben asked in concern. Twilight Sparkle remained silent for the moment. He sighed, "Look, I don't know why are you so against Phobos or his kind so much, but I think he's friendly." Spike chuckled, "Even though he took a big bite on you?" "Yes, Spike; even though he didn't mean it," Ben remarked in annoyance. He turned to Twilight Sparkle as he patted her shoulder gently, "Look, Twi, just do this for Nyx. She seems to like him. After all, two more days is her birthday." Spike nodded, "Besides, you're overreacting about him. Just give him a chance. Get to know him." Twilight Sparkle thought for a while. She sighed, "I guess you're right. Maybe I should give him a chance." Ben smiled as he gave her a kiss, "That's the spirit. Come on, let's check on others' preparation." "Good to hear..." Spike said happily. As Twilight Sparkle, Ben Mare and Spike went and checked on her friends' preparation for Nyx's Birthday, Cutie Mark Crusaders and Phobos followed them as well while making sure Nyx distract and away from others. Twilight Sparkle, Ben Mare and Spike checked on Applejack about where to set the birthday party, which they decide to use Apple Barn for party. They checked on Rainbow Dash about her sonic rainboom, which the daredevil pony enjoyed to perform it a lot. They checked on Rarity for the clothes and party designs for Nyx's, which they looked very good. Fluttershy and her animal friends helped the citizens in cleaning the area and setting the party up. They even checked on Pinkie Pie and Cakes Family in baking Nyx's Birthday Cake. As Twilight Sparkle and her assistants handle with their 'checkups' with her friends, Nyx and Cutie Mark Crusaders tried to train and befriend Phobos. But the Moon Dragon stubbornly refuse to obey or follow them such as doing dog tricks, rude to others and worse he did was pick a fight with pets or ponies he encountered. Twilight Sparkle noticed the event, she grew in concern and uncomfortable with it. And each time Cutie Mark Crusaders and Phobos followed Twilight Sparkle and her friends from one place to another, they have been followed - Captain Moltzar, Princess Ember and her Dragons followed them. Since they're now ponies and blend in the crowd, they were armed and ready to attack and capture him. And yet, Phobos can't help but wonder who and why the mysterious are these ponies following him? Phobos can't help but wonder that he felt like he knew them from somewhere... At the cafe, Twilight Sparkle and all of her friends were having their own dinner. While the adults chatted about Nyx's birthday surprise plans, Cutie Mark Crusaders keep Nyx and Phobos at bay and even discussed about the Moon Dragon. Apple Bloom designed the drawing of Phobos, along with crimson color that cover almost whole head. She then passed it to Nyx and her friends. "Okay, maybe being Dragon Trainer is harder than it looks. And here's Phobos training results, Crusaders," Apple Bloom explained in concern, "And I can tell you one thing, it's not a good thing." Sweetie Belle nodded, "We need to work on his obedient and attitude. Because if we don't, we'll be in big trouble when ponies complained about him." Scootaloo sighed, "Yeah. How? How are we gonna make home listen to us if he doesn't do the dog tricks?" "You do realize that he's a dragon," Twist reminded, "Dragon is a civilized like us, other than being a wild. And that's why he got easily angered." "Really? He could have told us of what to do," Dinky Doo remarked in annoyance. Pipsqueak sighed, "From what I know about dragons, they're too proud to talk or even say a word about it. It's kinda like Spike having feelings for Rarity." "Make sense..." Nyx said in concern. She turned and patted Phobos while sighed, "What are we gonna do with you?" Phobos growled, "Do I look like I care about being puppy, babe?" "Hey, look! Cakes are here!" Apple Bloom exclaimed happily. Waiters placed the plates of cakes in front of her and her friends. She sighed, "Come on. All this talking making me hungry!" And just before Cutie Mark Crusaders could do anything, Phobos jumped and took the bite of all cakes into his mouth. They all awed in annoyance and upset. He stopped as he put all of the cakes back on the plate before he put the food to the front of them. They all were disgusted by Phobos's slime on their foods. He really needs to work on his table manners. Twilight Sparkle and her friends were chatting with each other about the birthday party plans. They were relieved and happy that everything went while. She turned and glanced at Cutie Mark Crusaders and Phobos chatting as well as the Moon Dragon's behavior and reaction. Ben sighed as he patted Twilight Sparkle's shoulder, "Twilight, we've been on this for the last time. Give him some chance, unless you're ready to talk about why." Spike nodded, "Yeah, Twi. Sure Phobos got some attitude issue, but that doesn't mean he's all that bad dragon. I was a spoiled dragon once, and you've manage to calm and teach me to be more 'civilized'. So, why can't he?" "He does have the point," Rarity said in concern, "I understand that you're worry for Nyx. But why are you so against Phobos so much?" Applejack nodded, "Once you gave the glare, it's like you knew he's up to something." "You actually met his kind, didn't you?" Fluttershy asked in concern. Twilight Sparkle sighed, "I don't want to talk about it. And believe in me, it's not a good one." Rainbow Dash sighed and shrugged, "Suit yourself. It's best that you tell us what the heck is really going on, got it?" Pinkie Pie nodded, "Yeah! What are friends for! We don't want to make same mistakes again." Twilight Sparkle sighed, "Alright, I will tell you later. Maybe one day..." As Cutie Mark Crusaders were chatting and discussing about Phobos, the Moon Dragon found a strange yet delicious scent into his nose. He decided to follow it. As he moved to the back, he found a bag. He opened and checked on it. He found a drumstick. "Ooh! A Drumstick! Chicken! Chicken! Chicken!" Phobos exclaimed happily. "Gotcha!" Phobos yelped in concern as he had his neck grabbed. He turned and found Captain Moltzar holding him. He armed with his Stun Spear in ready to attack. The disguised Princess Ember and the crew were there as well. "You again?!" Phobos exclaimed in shock. Captain Moltzar chuckled in amusement, "Now you're mine now, 626!" "Hold him still!" Princess Ember exclaimed firmly. Captain Moltzar held and grabbed Phobos tightly while the Moon Dragon roared wildly and struggled in getting off from his grip. He even tried to take a big bite on Captain Moltzar grip, making the Dragon Bounty Hunter screamed in pain while retaliated in attacking him. Princess Ember tried and struggled to put a cuffs on the Moon Dragon. Phobos growled in anger as he took a big bite on Princess Ember's left hoof, making her scream in pain. Mane Six, Cutie Mark Crusaders, Ben and Spike turned to their back and found Phobos is attacking the group of innocent ponies. "Phobos, no! Stop! Bad dragon! Bad dragon!" Nyx exclaimed in shock. "We have to stop him now!" Twilight Sparkle exclaimed in concern. Twilight Sparkle and her friends charged in and quickly stop Phobos from attacking. Nyx and her friends tried to pull him while Twilight Sparkle and hers did with disguised Princess Ember. However, the Moon Dragon stubbornly refuse to let go of biting. Fluttershy groaned in annoyance as she had no choice. Fluttershy moved to the front and gave Phobos 'The Stare', "Stand down now!" Phobos yelped and whined like a puppy as he quickly let go and his behind Nyx's back. Two of Captain Moltzar's crew checked on Princess Ember's hoof if she was wounded or not. Everyone relieved of that the fight is over. Savoir Fare entered the scene as he found the table is a mess. "Can somepony tell me of what's going on?!" Savoir Fare demanded. He turned and glared at Phobos, "Is that your dragon, mademoiselle?!" Twilight Sparkle gulped, "Well... I... It's kinda-!" "It's okay! I'm fine. Nothing harm done," Princess Ember explained calmly and humbly while rubbing her hoof gently, "Don't worry about it. It's just a small bite." Captain Moltzar chuckled in amusement, "See? Everything's fine. Now we go back and enjoy our dinner? After all, this little doggie is just hungry." Savoir Fare bowed, "Please, mademoiselle; I apologize for this mess. As for this lady and all of her friends, they all would be leaving at once." Twilight Sparkle and her friends were in shock about it. But they knew it wasn't his fault that they have to leave. They gave a glare at nervously Phobos. He really make a big mess about it... Twilight Sparkle and her friends make their way back to Golden Oak Library. They want to discuss about what to do with Phobos. He has cause a lot of troubles lately. The decision Twilight Sparkle has made it's for the best for Ponyville and Nyx, which Ben and Mane Five agreed to it. "What?!" Nyx exclaimed in shock as she hugged Phobos tightly like holding a teddy bear, "You can't do this! You just can't!" Twilight Sparkle sighed, "I'm sorry, Nyx. Phobos has to go! He has to go back to Dragon Land now!" "But mummy, you can't! He's just cranky!" "Does a cranky dragon like him go around and bite some ponies?! By the looks of it, he's doesn't even care about anyone but himself!" "But you trained and taught Spike to be like us?! Why can't Phobos?! Why is he any different than others?!" "Nyx, don't questioned me! I want him out now! I don't want him to stay! He's too dangerous and wild!" Nyx groaned as she shouted angrily, "Why are you so against Phobos?! What has he done to you or your life?!" Twilight Sparkle screamed while broke down in tears, "Because his kind has killed my brothers! And I don't want my friends or my family get the same fate!" Mane Five, Ben, Spike, Cutie Mark Crusaders and even Phobos were stunned and shocked about Twilight Sparkle's answers. She has other brothers than just Shining Armor and Sparky Comet? Who were they? And how did they killed? "Twilight, what do you mean?" Applejack asked in concern. "Did something bad happen to them?" Fluttershy asked in concern. "How many brothers do you really have?" Rarity asked curiously. "Four," Ben said. Everyone looked at him. He smiled, "I met them before. They're good." Nyx approached and hugged Twilight Sparkle in comfort, "Please, mummy. Please tell us of what's really going on." Ben nodded in agreement, "Nyx's right, Twilight. What happen to Yuri and Stealth? I haven't seen them when I got turned back to normal pony..." Spike patted Twilight Sparkle's back, Come on, Twilight. Tell us about them. We want to help and be there for you. You're our friend..." Twilight Sparkle looked at her friends, with their curiosity and concern looks. She sighed in defeat. She might as well tell them about her past and brothers... "I have four brothers including my twin brother. You all have met Shining Armor and Sparky Comet," Twilight Sparkle explained. Everyone but Phobos nodded in agreement. She continued, "Yuri Lowell is my third brother while Stealth Black is my twin brother. And believe me, they and I have great time and always be together. We were so close..." Everyone but Phobos awed in amazement and happy to hear it. Twilight Sparkle sighed as she continued. Flashback: "You already know how close I am to Shining Armor and Sparky Comet. I've always depend on my oldest brother to help and protect me from bullies when I was a filly. I tutored and helped my youngest brother a lot because he was so young and new to everything." As young Twilight Sparkle was being bullied, Shining Armor came to her side while chase the bullies off. Other than that, he helped her deal with big problems like encouraging her to perform some spells and even taught her about activities without using magic. Young Twilight Sparkle help and taught Sparky Comet about his studies and homework. "Yuri and I might not be close as I had with Shining Armor, but we're both good to each other. We always help each other - I help teach him about homework and magic while he helped mine about being open-minded and adventurous to ponies and other things. Yuri always like to be an archaeologist. We even sometimes talk each other about feelings and problems we had." Twilight Sparkle and Yuri Lowell worked together about her studies and magic, as well as involving about archaeologist, adventures and open-minded to ponies. They even talked with each other about feelings and problem they had/ They hugged each other in comfort and passionate. "I've known my twin brother since we both born on the same day. Stealth and I had some differences to sort out. And believe me, we love to hate each other or vice-versa. I'm more of magic user and study books while Stealth Black is competitive athletic and warrior. Even though we've got problems, we helped and be there for each other. We even enjoyed each other's company." Twilight Sparkle and Stealth Black argued each other about their differences - she studied on books and practiced magic while he trained on exercise, athletes and battlefield. They both often argued with each other about the problems and differences they had, and even pull a prank on each other a lot. Despite that, they worked and helped each other a lot, as well as playing some games and playing water in bathroom. "Like taking a bath together from young till 8 years old?" Ben's voice asked in amusement. Everyone's voice asked in surprise and shock, "REALLY?!" "BEN!" Twilight Sparkle's voice exclaimed in annoyance. She sighed, "But things change. I've lost both brothers during my days in Princess Celestia's Gifted School for Unicorns. Yuri was murdered by a giant Moon Dragon..." Young Twilight Sparkle and Yuri Lowell were discussing and chatting happily with each other while she was carrying Spike on her left bag. They stopped as they found a shadow loomed over them. They turned and found a giant demonic version of Moon Dragon drooling on them. They screamed in fear as they quickly ran away at once while trying to reach the school for help. And just before they could reach Princess Celestia at entrance, Yuri Lowell screamed in pain as he was clawed by the giant Moon Dragon. He slammed to the ground hard. Princess Celestia and her Royal Guards charged in and battled with it for the moment. It then forced to escape. "I've let Yuri died. I wish I could have been strong enough to repel that monster away. I could have saved him but I ran away..." Young Twilight Sparkle broke down in tears as she held and hugged Yuri Lowell tightly. Princess Celestia approached Twilight Sparkle as she gave the young unicorn a comfort hug. "And my twin brother. We both argued about Yuri Lowell's death. He blamed me for not saving me, and he even slap my face. We both gotten into a big fight. My dad was forced to give Stealth Black some beating on his blank. My mom also grounded him. I feel responsible of it. I want to make up with him. And by the time, I got into his room..." Twilight Sparkle and Stealth Black got into a heated argument about Yuri Lowell's death. As he gave her a big slap, she screamed and jumped on him. They both fight with each other fierce. Both Night Light and Twilight Velvet entered the scene as the parents were in shock and quickly end the fight at once. Their father gave a beating on Stealth Black's flank while their mother sent him to room as he's grounded. Twilight Sparkle feel guilty and responsible about sending her twin brother to his room and grounded for life. She decide to apologize to him. By the time she entered the room, she found something shock. "My twin brother packed his stuff. And the worst is he's running away from home. I tried to talk him out but he won't listen to me anymore. He says goodbye to me. He's gone now..." Twilight Sparkle saw Stealth Black packed all of his stuffs as he was nearly trying to get out of his room. She begged and pleaded him not to leave, but he refused and say goodbye to her. He gave her a kiss on her forehead before nuzzled her gently. He escaped via the window. He climbed down and ran away from home. Twilight Sparkle broke down in tears... Flashback Ends... Everyone was in shock, concern and even despair about it. Phobos also felt upset and pain as well. They all finally understand why Twilight Sparkle was so against it. "Twilight, I'm so sorry for your brothers," Ben said in pitiful tone while patted her back, "It must be very painful to you." Applejack nodded, "Yeah. I know what it means to lose your family. It's quite painful too." Nyx nodded and hugged her a bit, "Me too, Mummy. I'm sorry for making you angry." Twilight Sparkle sighed as she hugged her daughter, "It's okay. I know you didn't mean it, Nyx." Spike hissed in concern, "So, what does that giant Moon Dragon want with you and your brother?" "No, Spike. He wants you," Twilight Sparkle explained fearfully and concern as she departed from hugging Nyx. Everyone gasped in shock and concern. She continued, "I don't know why or what, but he said that 'he's here to complete the mission'." "What mission?" "Kill you as the last descendant from the Great Dragon of Past for making friends and alliance with ponies." "So, that's why you're against Phobos so much. It's because of me..." "Yes, Spike. I made a vow that I will never let anything bad happen to you. I won't let that monstrous Moon Dragon close to you. I will keep you safe at all cost." "Twilight..." Spike said in shock yet relief. He charged and hugged her passionately, "Thank you so much. You're really a best friend a dragon could ask for. No, a family he could ask for..." Twilight Sparkle smiled as she hugged him back, "I know. Thank you too, Spike for accepting me." Everyone awed happily in watching the event. Phobos groaned in annoyance of watching the event, and yet he felt a bit of happy and relief to see it. He wished he could that like Nyx's family. "So, what are we gonna do with Phobos?" Rainbow Dash asked in concern. Pinkie Pie nodded, "Yeah. I know you got issue with Moon Dragon before but he's not the same guy. So, no way there's a lot of bad Moon Dragons." "Maybe we should give him the chance," Fluttershy suggested. Cutie Mark Crusaders raised their hooves up, "I second it!" Rarity smiled, "We can still train him to be more civilized like Spike is now." Twilight Sparkle hummed in concern and worry about giving Phobos a second chance. Applejack patted her from back. "It'll be alright. You have us to be there for you," Applejack insisted. Ben nodded, "Everything will be fine. I promised." Twilight Sparkle thought carefully for the moment. She sighed in defeat. Phobos maybe a Moon Dragon, but he's not responsible for her loss of brothers. "Okay, Phobos can stay here," Twilight Sparkle declared. Nyx and her Cutie Mark Crusaders cheered wildly and happily. She continued, "But he better don't cause some troubles. That's all I ask." "No Problem! Thank you so much, Twilight Sparkle!" Cutie Mark Crusaders cheered wildly and happily. Cutie Mark Crusaders jumped and hugged Twilight Sparkle happily while everyone laughed and giggled in amusement. She sighed in annoyance as she hoped that she won't regret it. Phobos remained silent while looking at Twilight Sparkle and Spike. "Hmm... I've heard of this somewhere before. Where was it from? And Spike being last descendant? That's something familiar..." Return to their original forms from pony disguises, Captain Moltzar, Princess Ember and the Dragon Brigade Crew were hiding within the Everfree Forest. They were setting the camp for their rest and sleepover. As the Dragon Scout returned to both Captain Moltzar and Princess Ember, he reported to them about Twilight Sparkle's story. Princess Ember can't help but feel sorry for it. "I kinda feel sorry for Spike and Twilight Sparkle," Princess Ember said in concern, "They've lost family because of Moon Dragon." Captain Moltzar nodded, "Yes, indeed, they had." "Hey, Moltzar. You actually knew that Prisoner 626 had nothing to do with Spike's family, didn't you?" "You figure that out?" "No, I just had the feeling that this could. And for some reason, he doesn't seem to remember us." "Aie... It's true. Prisoner 626 did no such thing on killing Spike's family. And you're right. He has forgotten about us. I'm in pain." "Whatever happen to him, something hit his head very hard. But what are we gonna next now?" "We just wait and watch until the right time to strike," Captain Moltzar said as he was putting himself on his sleeping bag, "We cannot underestimate Prisoner 626. He's cunning and tricky. And let's just hope we can catch him." Princess Ember nodded as she put herself on her sleeping bag, "And hopefully, we don't have to put innocent lives at stake especially Spike and Twilight Sparkle. They suffered from losing family enough..." To be Continued... Review and Suggest...
