There was a lovely looking night in the Crystal empire. The moon was gleaming through the crystal castle making it sparkle. The night there was peaceful… or seemed to be. Nopony saw a lurking shadow in the castle. Little did the ponies of the empire know what that shadow was planning. Suddenly he found this target. Two ponies were sleeping soundly side by side. It felt weird to be back in the castle of the Crystal Empire. it seemed so… different lurking shadow couldn't really put his hoof on it but the castle really did seem different… It was strange. Moving closer to his target he started to laugh evilly but quietly.

"Sweet revenge is on its way… you will all pay… Muhahaha." He said to himself moving in on his target. 'They won't even know what hit them' the thought as he put his plan into action.

The sun had just raised up high. The ponies of Equestria one by one started to get up and started to do their daily things. Luna was heading to her bedroom. Being the princess of the night she was awake during the night and asleep during the day. She was only awake only if it concerned Equestria. So technically it was late for her. She made her way to her bed in her own room. Her room was VERY different to Celestias' room. On-like Celestia her room was like the night. Her ceiling was a replica of the night sky. The room was painted with a deep night blue colour. She had very few lights in her room. Most of them had come from the ceiling so they looked like stars. She had a carpet like her painted walls. Her bed had blue sheets and so did her pillows'. So it was just like bring in the night sky for her. She was about to doze off when she felt a sharp pain in her body. Something didn't feel right… but what didn't feel right? She felt like she knew what was wrong but she just couldn't put her hoof on it. Suddenly the urge to go tell Celestia took over her. Following her instincts she went to tell Celestia who was sitting on her throne doing what she normally did in the morning. She got a fright when she saw her sister barging through the doors.

"Luna what's wrong? You scared me for a moment." Said Celestia putting her papers and her quill down.

"Crystal empire.. Danger… Sombra…" She said Trying to catch her breath, "Magic… unbalanced!" She gasped still trying to catch air. Celestia went to her sister.

"Try to catch you breath sister… then tell me what is happening." She said in a calm tone. Soon Luna caught her breath.

"I feel that Sombra has returned…" She said in a frightened and deep tone. Celestia gasped and could only say…

"Oh no…"
