> A shadows love > by Moonlight_shadow78 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Missing > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- It was a warm bright night in Ponyville everything was calm and it was almost time for a very special event... “Spike!”a young Alicorn mare shouted. it was princess twilight the princess of friendship. And she was struggling to get ready in time for the grand galloping gala “Yes?” Her young dragon assistant said. “Are you ready? The girls are waiting!” Twilight asked impatiently “I’m ready! Let’s go! I wanna see rarity!” The young dragon replied. As they both ran outside they saw their friends Fluttershy the element of kindness, rarity the element of generosity, Rainbow dash the element of loyalty, Applejack the element of honesty, Pinkie pie the element of laughter, All together the 6 of them made the Title:The Elements Of Harmony “Rarity you look great!” Spike complimented “Awww thanks Spikey Wikey” rarity gushed and with that, they hopped onto the carriage and were off to the grand galloping gala the most exquisite party in Equestia. Once they arrived they all were mesmerized in the lovely sight of the Canterlot Castle “good evening princess twilight!” A passerby said and waved as she waved back and entered the palace with. Her friends As they walked in they heard: “Twilight sparkle!” And saw Princess Celestia coming towards them As twilight Rushed over to give her beloved mentor a hug “It’s good to see you Twilight.” Princess Celestia said “you too!” Twilight responded And out of the corner of her eye she saw her friends Go different places to enjoy themselves as Twilight caught up with her beloved mentor. After a while of catching up Twilight heard a “Twiliy!” And she looked behind her to see cadence and shining Armor Trottiong towards her “ Hi B.B.B.F.F!” They both have her a compassionate hug and said: “how have you been?” “I have been doing great!” Twilight responded After a while the royals were all strolling through the garden and talking about there lives. “So Twily What have you been up to lately?” Shining armor asked. “Well I have been just hanging out with my friends and I’ve been a little stressed with my new princess duties.” Twilight responded. “That’s Okay Twily!” Shining Armor responded. “We should go back inside the ponies are probably wondering where we are.” Celestia said. Once they were all back inside, twilight realized something. “Hey... Cadence Shining Armor? Were is flurry heart? I have not seen her at all And I’m starting to get worried.” Twilight said. Shining Armor and cadence turned pale with fear. “W-what’s wrong?” Twilight asked. “I thought we had her! WHERE DID SHE GO!?” Shining armor shouted. “Shining Armor calm down!” Celestia said “we will find her! Twilight get your friends I’ll set out a search party!” Celestia said “okay!” Twilight said nervously 2 hours later.... “We can’t find her!” Rainbow dash exclaimed “well we better! Twilight’s about to have a mental breakdown!” Pinkie pie Exclaimed. Pointing to Twilight who was hyperventilating “Twilight it’s okay just breathe.” Cadence said “just breathe? JUST BREATHE?! FLURRY HEART I MISSING HOW ARE YOU TWO NOT FREAKING OUT AT ALL????” Twilight shouted Before anybody could say anything else they heard something something that scared all of the ponies out of the great ball room. “I know where she is” a voice said as a shadow formed on the stage > The King > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Everything in the room was tense as none other than King Sombra appeared on the stage “KING SOMBRA!” Celestia shouted “what do you want? We all thought you were dead!” Celestia shouted angrily as the dark mage smirked “What I want.... is a deal.” The tyrant claimed. Celestia’s ears perked, she was one more into solving something in a orderly manner instead of brutality as a solution “What kind of ‘deal’ is this? A cheat?” Rainbow dash quipped as she got into her fighting position the dark mage chuckled in amusement as he said: “No You have something that I want. I will give you flurry heart if I get something in return.” making a mischievous grin on his face “Which is...?” Celestia asked “I want a willing hoof in marriage” the room fell silent. nobody knew what to say they were all shocked at what they had just heard. “Oh no! No he is not getting any pony!” Rainbow dash exclaimed as she shot up into the air. “I second that! That..that Brute is getting Nopony!” Rarity exclaimed as she pointed to him. “but it could our only chance at saving flurry heart...” Fluttershy pointed out as her voice trailed off “She does have a point you know” twilight said “as much as I hate it” King Sombra just laughed. “You have 24 hours once you have decided meet me at the everfree forest and if you don’t comply well.. let’s say you won’t ever see her again.” and he disappeared without a trace. The room was silent for a moment “No way we are not giving him any pony!” Apple jack stated. “We will talk about this in the morning.” Celestia said “you ponies can stay here I’m truly sorry about this.” Celestia said before leaving The morning the next day... “Twilight breakfast is ready!” Spike called out. No respond.”awww come on twi you can’t stay in bed all day!” As he started walking over to her bed he noticed a note as he picked it up and started reading it he fell into shock and horror and started charging towards the breakfast room in sheer panic “EVERYPONY I HAVE TO TELL YOU SOMTHING!” Everypony looked up completely in shock. Meanwhile with twilight.... “I’m sorry Everypony but I have to do this.. I’m should be the one taking responsibility for this.. I’m her aunt.. I barely see her.. it won’t matter if I’m gone flurry will forget me when she’s all grown up...” she muttered to herself as she saw the dark mage at the entrance to the everfree forest. As he saw her he looked up in surprise he did not expect twilight to be the one he expected Luna or her sister but instead he got her. but then he realized what an opportunity he had just been given the element of magic and a princess was what he was getting. oh the things he would to with her... it was All to perfect As she landed she heard a “princess twilight sparkle.” Shivers went down her spine as she walked towards him “I didn’t expect you to come Of all ponies.” As a smirk formed on his face. “Let’s go twilight.” He said menacingly. Just as he was about to leave with his future wife he heard a “TWILIGHT!” He looked over to see her friends coming but before they could reach him and twilight they both disappeared and all that remained in their place was a sweet flurry heart. “NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!” Shinning Armor shouted and stared crying as Cadence picked up flurry heart. “Were too late.....” Cadence’s voice trailed off Meanwhile at sombra’s new palace twilight was fast asleep much to his liking as he placed her in a spare room “oh the things we will do together...” he chuckled and left the room quite pleased he had a princess and the strongest element of harmony with him but he didn’t want too fall in love again it was too painful. all he cared about was his plans for her and all the fun he was going to have making her fall for him then she wouldn’t use the elements of harmony against him. he smiled at the thought. And the look on her big brothers face when he is married to his little sister. ‘it will be priceless’ he thought though he did wonder.. could any pony ever love a tyrant like him who took over an empire? Only fate could answer that question he had in him. He just hoped the answer was yes. > Love Is In Everypony’s Hearts > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- A couple of hours later twilight woke up in a dark room confused she left the room and went into the halls “hello?” She called “Where am I?” “You’re new home my dear.” a voice called out. as the sentence finished King Sombra appeared in front of his fiancé “You...” twilight said coldly “Don’t be so negative we are going to become husband and wife are we not? It’s only fitting if we get along this was you’re choice after all so you must love me.” He replied Twilight grumbled she hated it but he was right this was her choice after all but she just did that out of love for flurry heart not him not the cold tyrant who enslaved an empire! “So I think you should join me for breakfast you barely even talk to me at the moment and it would be a shame if we married eachother without loving one another.” Before twilight could respond he picked her up with his magic and took her to the dining room he was thinking during the trip there ‘she will love me forever no matter what. we will both be around forever and ever so it will take time but we have all the time in the world and beyond!’ He chuckled at the thought but then he felt something strange a weird feeling in his chest he quickly shook it off but he wondered what that feeling was “we are here” he said to the mare putting her down. “Ok” twilight responded Though she really missed her friends but she had a deal and she didn’t wanna break it who knows what will happen? After breakfast twilight went outside she knew she couldn’t escape there was a barrier that only sombra and his gaurds could pass through she looked up at the morning sky and sighed after a while she came back in only to be stopped by a royal gaurd “The king wants to see you.” He said As the gaurd escorted her to the throne room he left and she was left in the room alone with..him “Hello darling.” He said as she felt her insides squirm with disgust and... something else. “I must say for and almost married couple we sure don’t spent a lot of time together.” As he got off his throne he walked over to her and nuzzled her check as she felt...weird Normally she would have pushed him away but for some reason... she just stood there doing nothing and not pushing him away like she should be doing.... but She didn’t. “Come let’s take a walk in the castle gardens darling.” As they went into the gardens sombra felt something he hasn’t felt in over 1,000 years.....love. As the you Alicorn walked with him she felt... safe oddly safe she wanted to run she wanted to kick him and run to her friends and family or at least she thought that’s what she wanted to happen twilight was starting to not hate the tyrant as much anymore he noticed and felt...happy he denied it and told himself that it was just him being smug but he didn’t believe it. He knew somthing a fact that he hated but not really. He knew he loved his fiancé more than anything and then...he was okay with it he loved her and he was okay with it he just wanted her to truly love him to... 6 hours later The two ponies were looking up at the stars together. they have been out for about 3 hours and then twilight said something she oddly didn’t regret but didn’t expect she fell asleep on him He let those moments sink in with shock. he was so happy yet confused. he did love her too but why? And most importantly why Would she love him? No matter though he had returned her up into her room and went back to his own to think. He wondered why she would ever love him he didn’t know why but all he did know was that he was happy. soon after that he went to bed satisfied and happy. The next morning twilight woke up in her bed and was really missing her friends but... she also wanted to stay with him... > Broken Heart > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- King Sombra woke up and went to check on his fiancé and saw her wide awake and was obviously thinking about somthing “darling.” He said “what troubles you?” “I miss my friends.” She replied That’s what it was.. she missed her friends... “I’m sorry but I can’t let you’re friends come...” “You can... if you let them visit...” “Hm?” “If you let my friends visit I’ll let you decide when the wedding is!” Sombra just stood there “hmm ok.” But the wedding is in this Saturday ok?” “This Saturday?!” “You said!” “Okay...” After sombra left twilight wrote a letter to her friends and told them they could come! Speaking of which... With twilights friends... “We have to get her back!” Rainbow dash shouted angrily while making a fist. “I’m with rainbow dash on this one!” Shining said eagerly “we will destroy that tyrant and get her back!” “Guys guys!” Spike shouted as he cane into the room “I just got a letter from twilight she says we can visit!” “YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!” Pinkie pike screamed as her mane proofed up and she jumped super high. “What are we waiting for? Let’s go get her back!” Rarity said Back at the palace Twilight and her fiancé where reading a book while her future husband was nuzzling her on the cheeck she felt a little uncomfortable. then a letter popped out of nowhere and it’s said that her friends where there to...rescue her? The couple looked at eachother in confusion and just kept on reading until the heard hoof steps and two royal gaurds burst in the room “Your highness there are intruders!” “Should we bring them to you?” The couple looked at eachother and then sombra said “yes” as the gaurds left the two looked at eachother and then he leaned over and then he gave her a kiss on the lips and smiled at her he truly loved her. But he just wished she loved him as much. then the gaurds brought the intruders in and left “YOU!” Cadence said hatefully looking straight at sombra and then she saw twilight right next to him and gasped. Sombra looked around the room and now it was just them Twilight didn’t know what to do she was very uncomfortable should she help her friends? Do nothing? Shining didn’t care he charged straight at sombra attempting to impail him and kill him but sombra had something else in mind He picked up shining and threw him against the wall and chuckled while twilight just stared in horror watching as her friends were carelessly being tossed around. sombra noticed her discomfort and said “Don’t worry they won’t hurt me.” Twilight didn’t know why or how she said this to him but somehow she was able to do this “I HATE YOU! I HATE YOU WITH EVERYTHING I HAVE! SOMEPONY AS WORTHLESS AND PATHETIC AS YOU! JUST DIE!” She shouted at the tyrant Sombra just stood there in shock not knowing what to do “get......” “Huh?” “GET OUT ALL OF YOU BEFORE I KILL YOU ALL!” They all ran Everypony was happy that there friend broke the tyrants heart and was free. But twilight sparkle was regretting everything she said as they all headed back to Canterlot Castle where Everypony else awaited to hear the wonderful new’s about twilight and what happened. > Taken once more > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- “No....she cannot leave...she must stay.” Sombra said as he turned into his shadows form. His body shot out of the window which gave a gasp from everyone. as he shot himself at the group he wrapped himself around twilight and took her away again but not before he chained up twilights friends and family and teleported them to his castle prison “Hey let me go!” Twilight shouted. Sombra was silent as he cast a spell on twilight and she felt her mindset immediately change. As it was too much for her twilight blacked out. And as always, sombra picked her up and put her somewhere special to him and soon, her. It was going to be a long day for her when she woke up. When twilight woke up she found herself in a familiar place but the room was...different she looked over and what she saw almost made her faint from fright. Which she did. But sombra knew. So he thought it was time to enact his spell that he had placed on her the night before. He lit up his horn with dark specks of magic leaking out as green started to sorround his horn. Once he cast the spell twilights mind was altered. All of the happy and loving moments with her friends and family became happy loving time with sombra. And all of the painful evil memories of sombra were replaced with evil painful memories with twilights friends and family. And with a jolt, twilight woke up. “Dear, are you okay?” Sombra asked, making sure his spell worked. And that she was acually okay. “Since you’re here, yes.” Twilight said smiling. Sombra grinned victoriously. His spell had worked. At breakfast they were both eating and then twilight asked “what would you like to do today?” “Hmm I don’t know my dear but we could go in the garden if you would like.” “Sure!” Twilight said happily. After 5 hours in the garden. “You know.... I’ve been wondering something dear.” “What is it?” Twilight asked. “We both love eachother so much will you be my queen of shadows? Will you be with me forever my dear?” He asked as he held out a crown with a six point star on top. Similar to her cutie mark “ I love you, will you marry me?”
