SOMBRA'S RETURN
CHAPTER ONE
Twilight Sparkle woke up from her sleep. She breathed deeply and quickly, her chest forcing itself up and down. She calmed herself gradually. It was that nightmare. That horrendous nightmare. Twilight turned her head to the side and saw Spike resting peacefully. She smiled softly. She swirled her head back around to the window. Everything looked normal. She stood up from her bed. The crystal walls of her new castle surrounded her. Suddenly a painful screeching, like metal on metal, broke the silence. Her pupils shrunk into pinpricks and her ears flattened. Twilight's wings stood up and she froze on the spot until the screeching ended. She turned around slowly. The Crystal Palace had rose above the mountains that held it. Twisted shadows held it up from the ground. Lights flickered on and everypony was soon standing outside, staring and pointing at the horrible sight of the Crystal Empire's landmark being hoisted up from it's foundations. Spike ran up onto Twilight's bed and peeked out the window.
"Twilight, what happened?" Spike asked drowsily.
Something about those shadows looked familiar.
"Princess Twilight!" A royal guard stormed into the castle and Twilight immediately flew down the stairs. She landed perfectly on the floor and nodded to the guard.
"I am only the inform you that...it has returned."
