Tempest enters the Castle of Friendship. She made sure no one is watching her. After seeing Spike hanging out with Big Mac earlier, now is the perfect to scout the castle. Tempest has her camera. She plans on documenting locations of the castle worthy enough to hide and ambush Twilight Sparkle and her friends. Tempest enters the throne room. She takes pictures of the throne and the map of Equestria at several different angles.
"How interesting, they have the whole map of Equestria. Good thing they don't have the Storm King's Kingdom on the map."
Tempest continues to look around the throne room. She finds several hiding positions that'll suit her soldiers. She takes pictures of them and leaves the throne room.
"That throne room has many interesting areas to ambush. If Twilight is a book fanatic, as they say, she'll be helping us even more."
Tempest walks down the corridors. She opens the door to the library. She takes different pictures of the library then, she leaves. Throughout the hour, Tempest opened many doors. She found other libraries, guest rooms, closets with windows, activity rooms, the balcony, the platform on the roof, and Twilight's bedroom. Tempest has taken a lot of pictures of secret entrances, hiding areas, rooms with windows to enter stealthfully. Tempest feels that there are areas to booby trap the Princess of Friendship and her friends without their knowledge.
"Note to self, booby trap areas they won't think of."
Tempest uses her magic to camouflage herself to the pillars of the castle after hearing Spike and Big Mac coming in with hoofball equipment. Tempest smirks. She uses her magic manipulate their minds. Big Mac and Spike fall to their knees. They feel dark magic coursing through them. Within a few moments, Big Mac and Spike turn and bow in front of Tempest. Their eyes are red-green.
"Mindless drones. Do as I say. Observe the Princess of Friendship and friends. Keep in contact with everything they do."
"Yes, mistress," Spike and Big Mac said.
"Report to me at Rich's mansion of any useful info. Do not tell anypony else."
"Understood," Spike and Big Mac answer.
"Carry on with your day," Tempest commands. She leaves the castle.
Big Mac and Spike shake their heads. They forgot what just happened and carry on with their plans. Spike is trying to get the rookie hoofball collector's card from Big Mac. Tempest trots back to the mansion to inform Fire Flier and Diamond Tiara. Half an hour later, Tempest enters Rich's mansion. She smells freshly made foods coming from the dining room. She gallops to the dining room, finding out that Fire Flier and Diamond Tiara are about to have dinner.
"Hey, Tempest. Just in time for dinner. You hungry?" Fire asks.
"Not at the moment. I'm here to clarify a few things. One, I have layered out the entire castle. We now have ways of ambushing Princess Twilight and her friends. Second, I manage to brainwash a baby dragon and a stallion. They'll be our eyes and ears on everything Princess Twilight and her friends, does. Third, we have the element of surprise. No pony has suspected anything during our time here."
"Excellent, Tempest. Thanks for informing us."
"You're welcome, Fire Flier," Tempest sees a well-cooked fish for Fire Flier. Using her magic, she takes the fish away from Fire Flier.
"Hey! I was waiting to eat that!" Fire Flier shouts.
Diamond Tiara laugh at Fire's misery. Now he has to wait for another well-cooked fish. Diamond Tiara eats her haystack fries. Fire Flier groans as his stomach growls loudly.
Tempest is eating the fish in a different room. She starts to have a headache. After an hour after her meal, the Storm King calls. Tempest answers.
"Good evening, your highness," Tempest greets, bowing down to the Storm King.
"Tempest, have you infiltrated Twilight's Castle?" The Storm King raises his eyebrow.
"Yes, your highness. I scoped around and found intriguing evidence. There are locations in the castle that are perfect to booby trap and ambush the Princess and her friends."
The Storm King smirks. "Excellent, Tempest! According to my sources, we may get the chance to invade Equestria earlier than expected."
"Why is that, Storm King?" Tempest calmly questions.
"The Princess and her friends lost their special talents. Rumor has it that they may try to retrieve it. There is a town near this Manehattan of theirs. Go investigate. If they are unable to get their special talents back, we will invade Equestria sooner."
"Understood, Storm King. I shall venture to this town and review. If the Princess and friends are able to get their marks, I shall report to you. That way, you don't waste any of your resources. Also, you'll be able to redraw your plans of conquest, my King."
"Sounds good, Tempest. I wish you luck."
"Thank you for your time, Storm King," Tempest salutes and hangs up the call. "Twilight Sparkle and her friends losing their cutie marks. Things are becoming too easy, augh!" Tempest's headache is getting a bit stronger but, she ignores it.
Storm King calls Grubber and he reports everything he sees so far. Discord can ruin everything unless he's taken out of the picture.
"Discord. Lord of Chaos. I shall end you with my supreme power!" The Storm King laughs manically as his generals continue to plan for the invasion of Equestria.
The mane six better hope this peace treaty doesn't get BOTCHED up otherwise it's back to the DARK AGES for Equestria.
Welp. This is a problem. I have a feeling that Dark Order and the Storm King won't stop after conquering Equestria, they'll head to Starlight's village.
10381141
Even though that's the case, they made it a lot WORSE, and for being TERRIBLE to make amends.
10381171
See!!! He also gets the idea that the Mane Six screwed up TERRIBLY!!!
And another thing, trying to destroy the Vault that ONLY contain BAD ponies Cutie Marks, will make EVERYTHING WORSE!!!! Heck, I bet Ponyville, Starlight's Village, Canterlot, and all the other Pony cities WILL BLAME the Mane Six, and the Princesses for LETTING THE BAD PONIES to get their Special talents back. And for helping them, I have No doubt that they be "Fired" of being the "Heroes of Equestria". Even the Princesses have NO choice but to step down as Leaders for this.
10381180
But, we have bigger problems to worry about. Never mind the fact that if bad ponies get thier cutie marks back, it might end up going into the Dark Order and the Storm King's favor.
Okay, that is a little BS for what Tempest did?! Sorry if I Swear a little. BUT, HOW can she do that, when her Horn is still BROKEN!!!!!!
Wait, oh!!! I guess the "Headache" is the side effect. Tempest, you idiot!!! You SHOULDN'T cast Heavy Magic Spells like Mine Control, with a BROKEN HORN!!!!!
I mean, look what happened to poor Ron with his Broken Wand from the Harry Potter: Year 2 Book/Movie.
Plus, HOW can Fire Flier take Diamond's stupid bullying. I would have PUNCH the stupid brat, and take what's rightfully mine. 😈
10381185
That's the WHOLE point! I also Including Diamond Tiara, and Fire Filer having theres back in the process.
10381192
Ok. Plus I have a feeling that the Dark Order and the Storm King will invade Starlight's village if the peace treaty negotiations goes south and if Equestria falls. If I remember
anything from My Little Pony the movie, I don't think that storm king will stop there. He'll go after other kingdoms.
10381196
Yep, and that SUCKS!!!! And theirs a chance that the Pony citizens and the other Kingdom's BLAME the Mane Six and Princesses for unintentionally Causing and letting this Evil happened.
RIP Mane Six and the Royal Sisters 💀
10381208
Maybe, we just have to wait for the next chapter to come. Lets hope the peace treaty negotiations doesn't go south because if it does, I have no doubt in my mind that Diamond Tiara will take in the pleasure of getting revenge on the Cutie Mark Crusaders and Starlight Glimmer.
This is a very scary and sad story. I beginning to think that the CMC’s are not going to forgive their friends and sisters no matter what happens when they negotiate with Starlight Glimmer.
10381227
Actually, seeing as it was their idea to strip the Mane 6 of their cutie marks, along with the special talents, it be pretty obvious who to blame when Equestria gets attacked and Twilight and her friends can’t stop them. Answer: Starlight Glimmer, and the CMC. Mostly the CMC.
10381342
That's right.
I guess that's how Chrysalis and her changelings were able to kidnap Twilight, her friends, and the other important figures during the Season 6 finale. It's so easy to break into Twilight's castle as Twilight didn't install security spells or something. I still question on how easy it was for Chrysalis and her changelings were even able to get into Canterlot Castle and the Crystal Empire during the Season 6 finale to this day.
10381387
Changelings are infiltrators. Odds are that they get into cities like Canterlot and the Chrystal Empire when have their guard and their defenses down. If a changelings gets detected, then it's already too late.
10381188
I'm guessing you didn't read the whole story. Tempest does have a horn. She is using Sombra's Horn. She infused Sombra's magic with hers.
10381217
Yep, and we BOTH don't want that to happened to Starlight and the CMC.
10381670
Yep. Let's just hope the peace treaty negotiations goes well and the Mane 6 gets their cutie marks back and then plan on how to beat the Dark Order and Storm King.
10381260
Oh HECK No!!!!! That's a TERRIBLE idea!!!!! Why would Starlight want to Stop the Mane Six's Rainboom day. We all KNOW in the Canon show, how it cause those Bad Alternate Timelines with the Past Villains Winning. And the last one, being a WASTELAND!!!!!!!!!! I know they are Pissed at the Mane Six, and the Mane Six DO Deserve that hate. But, using Time Travel is WAY TOO FAR!!!
As for stopping Gabby Gums for ever happening, MIGHT seem good on paper. But, It's still a Bad idea! Think about it, if Starlight stop that Stupid incident from happening, sure it wil stop the CMC from running away and be depressed. And everyone is happy? Well, IF the CMC DIDN'T run away, they WOULDN'T meet Starlight, tell her about the Bad incident, and change her Heart with the "Equality" idea to giving REAL Justice to DEAL Bad Ponies like Diamond Tiara and Fire Flier.
And then Starlight WOULDN'T have a reason to Time Travel in the first place, since the CMC DIDN'T come to her anyway. That's the definition of the Time Paradox or the Butterfly Effect in the Time Travel "Rules". You unintentionally STOP yourself from Time Traveling, IF you don't have a reason to do it in the first place since you change the past. And that is BAD!
10381510
Oh. 😖 I do remember that part in a chapter, BUT I forgot about that sorry. But, I think that the Headache is possibly coming from Sombra's Dark Magic to mess with her mind. It's still a BAD idea to use someone elses Horn, especially the horn from the Evil Tyrant.
10381678
Well, the Mane Six have to EARN them back first, as well as to NOT to screw up a third or the fourth time, trying to get the CMC's forgiveness.
10381735
Hmm. We'll see what happens.
10381510
What happens if Bow Hothoof finds out the Snap Shutter broke Rainbow's Wing?
10381833
I don't think he's going to find out. It was Scootaloo who found her parents and have them catch up on everything Rainbow's been doing. Since Scootaloo resides in Starlight's village, there won't be an introduction of Rainbow's parents. If Bow were to find out per se, he doesn't stand a chance against Snap Shutter.
10381844
Snap Shutter reminds me of Steve Irwin.
10381844
What happens if Starlight sees The Mane six coming back to the village?
10382057
Classified Information. Access Denied.
10382070
Meaning she would be pissed and so would the villagers.
If the treaty goes smoothly maybe the CMC will accept their forgiveness.
10382123
Maybe. We are going have to wait and see what happens.
10382096
I don't know if I can answer that.
10382070
I like when you say that, to me it only makes this story even better each time out.
10384981
Okay. However, I say it to some when they want to know more on the chapters that awaits.
10385025
Sure.
