Deep in the everfree forest on a full moon night sat two ponies. One a normal size unicorn with a glowing red horn beside him sat a tall alicorn with wildly flowing midnight blue mane and tail.

She looked at the elaborately dressed unicorn and said “Sombra I must tell you something.”

“What is it my beautiful Nightmare?” he asked kissing her cheek and smiling.

“I… I’m pregnant.” Nightmare replied.

“R.. Really?” Sombra asked

“Yes. With twins!” Nightmare seemed so happy.

“That’s great.” Sombra replied.

Nightmare frowned and said “You don’t seem to happy.”

“It’s just i don’t think I’m ready to be a father.” Sombra replied “And what if your sister found out?”

Nightmare kissed Sombra on the cheek and said “First off, you’ll make a wonderful father. Seconde off, Tia won’t find out. They’ll be our little secret.”

Sombra smiled and said “Okay Nighty.”

(8 months and 5 hours Later)

Nightmare Moon was laying in the hospital bed with Sombra beside her holding two newborn colts. One was black like his father with a midnight-blue mane and tail, the other was white with a golden mane and tail. Both had little horns and wings.

“What should we call them?” Sombra asked softly.

“We’ll call this one Black Hole.” Nightmare said pointing to the black one. “And this one will be Golden Destruction.” She said pointing at the white colt.

“Those are lovely names.” Sombra replied smiling.

"They will be our little Kings." Nightmare said

In a black obsidian Castle in the far north of Equestria two young alicorn colts sat excited. One black with a midnight-blue mane and tail and blue slit within slit eyes was wearing a steamed and pressed crystal blue suit with silver lining the other white with golden mane and tail and yellow slit eyes was wearing a beautiful yellow trench coat with yellow pants,tie,and shoes.

"What do you think we'll get for our birthday Black?" The white one asked the black one

"I don't know Golden but i hope it's a weapon!" Black said swinging a toy knife around his hoof.

"Of course you would want that." Golden mumbled.

"What was that?" Black asked tackling his brother playfully and slapping him with his wings.

"Hey stop it!" Golden said laughing as he tickled blacks ribs with his wings.

"That'.... Hahahaha....;. not..... hahahaha...... fair........ hahahahahaha!!" Black exclaimed as he laughed really hard.

"Boys what are you doing?" asked a tall midnight-blue mare with teal slit eyes, a madly whipping mane and tail and razor sharp teeth. "You are getting filthy."

"Sorry mother." Black and Golden said as one.

"Don't be to hard on them Nightmare. They're just being colts." said a black unicorn stallion with a blood red horn and purple and green flames coming from his eyes.

"Sombra your right." Nightmare said

"It's time for a party anyway." Sombra said, "Come on boys."

"YAY!" Golden and Black said at the same time.
They are going to be great ponies when they are older. Nightmare Moon thought to herself

"Come on Mother!" Black said tugging on Nightmare Moon's leg armor.

"I'm coming little black." Nightmare said smiling.

The castle's massive dining room was decorated with blue and gold balloons and streamers. At one end of the black crystal room was a banner that said Happy 5th Birthday Black and Golden. at one side was a table of presents wrapped in gold and blue wrapping paper and next to them was a huge black and white cake with figurines of the two on top of it.

"Wow." Black and Golden said.

"Who wants presents?" Nightmare asked the two colts.

"Me!" They said pushing each other in a rush to get to the present table.

"Calm down there is plenty for both of you." Sombra said walking after them. "Theses are from me." he said handing them two huge boxes a blue one for Black and a gold one for Golden.

"What is it?" Black asked his father.

"Open it and find out." Sombra replied smiling.

Black started ripping the paper to find a box. "Wow a box." he said sarcassticaly.

"We open the box stupid." Golden said hitting Black in the back of the head.

"OHHHHH. I knew that." Black said opening the box to find ... a set of obsidian-plated steel armor. "Cool it's Battle Armor!" he exclaimed loudly. He looked at his brother and say he had gotten a similiar gold set.

"Thanks Dad." they said at the same time.

"Try it on." Sombra told them.

Black had Nightmare help him with armor. It was a little lose but would grow into it.Th

"Look at my little soldiers." Nightmare said smiling and handing them two long presents, again blue for Black and yellow for Golden.

Golden opened his first and found a beutiful golden bow with the sun engraved in the handle. "Wow. Where are the arrows?" he said

"It doesn't need arrows. it takes pure solar energy and turns it into an arrow." Nightmare said.

Black opened his to find a beutiful sword sheath with the crescent moon in silver on it. The crossgaurd was shaped like the crescent moon and the pummel was shaped like a dragon head with a ruby for an eye. Black drew the blade to find it was amazingly sharp. "Wow." he said

"That is pure Lunar Steel. It'll never go dull and is perfectly balanced just for you." Nightmare said smiling as test swung it

"Thank You Mother!" They said at the same time.

"You're welcome my little ." Nightmare said hugging them. "You two will do great things one day."
