(A/N: Much like my fanfic The Very Special Lesson, this was another idea I had for what I thought of when I tried to think of what the plot to a My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic Movie might be like. If the studio was going to make a movie though I'd prefer they do one using the plot to The Very Special Lesson, but that's only because this plot is a lot darker and edgier compared to the standard MLP plot and is more brony friendly. Still it's nothing that couldn't be aired on TV, either fic. So sit back, relax, and enjoy. Oh and this was made to exist AFTER the season 3 premiere so any continuity after Season 3, episode 2 does not hold water for this fanfic. It's just easier that way for the ideas I have in mind, especially since I directly contradict canon in someplaces *cough*Discord*cough*).

Ponyville, Night
A bad storm was currently blowing through Ponyville. Harsh winds blew and heavy rain poured, keeping all Pegasi grounded, not that any were even outside. All ponies were inside and the storm was only getting worse. Twilight Sparkle, knowing the dangers, was currently reinforcing the library, since it was made out of an oak tree. As part of her reinforcements, she asked Spike to go and remove something that was hanging out on the tree branch outside her bedroom window, while she continued to put up magic wards along the inside of the library.
As Spike opened the window though, a fierce wind blew into the library, sending books, other items and Spike hurtling through the air. Twilight responded quickly by shutting the window with magic and catching Spike before he landed. She then placed her friend on the ground and put up a magic wall alongside the bedroom area so the wind wouldn't blow into the rest of the library if the window opened again. She retrieved the object hanging out on the branch and put it in its proper place. She then stood in the middle of the library, concentrated and projected a large barrier to surround the entire library.
"There," she said, "That should protect the library until this storm blows over."
A crack of thunder sounded through the air. It was so loud that a Dragon's Roar would've been quieter.
"Man, listen to that," Spike jerked his thumb at the flash of lightning that followed. "I didn't know Ponyville could get storms this bad."
"Any place can get a really bad storm, Spike," Twilight said as she began to pick up the books that had fallen from when Spike opened the window, "The important thing is to know how to survive in one." Twilight lifted a book open on the table, "And this 'How to Survive in Bad Weather' book is the key to our safety." Twilight smiled proudly and strutted to put the book back on its proper shelf, "This library is completely protected, both from lightning and from the wind."
As Twilight began to put the book back, outside in Ponyville, the silhouette of another pony approached the library. For what reason they were braving the storm was unknown, but soon would become abundantly clear. With magic they opened a small hole in Twilight's barrier and then closed it back up behind them.
Twilight put all the books back on their proper shelves and looked around to make sure the library floor was clean. "There, perfect."
A knock to her door alerted her. "Company? In this storm?" She opened the door. A flash of lightning concealed the identity of the pony that had come knocking at the door, but upon entering the library the library the identity of the individual was many unmistakable.
"Princess Luna?" Twilight gasped. The alicorn stood before Twilight, but she did not look well at all. One of her eyes was closed, her coat was mangled and she looked woozy. Her wings were not folded and bent a little and her crown was missing. Her mane was split in several locations and with every step she took it seemed like she was threatening to fall over.
Luna barely made it into the center of the library, with Twilight too shocked to speak, wondering what could've possibly happened to Luna in the first place. Luna opened her mouth and even with tremendous effort, barely managed to get out: "Twilight…Sparkle…help," before collapsing in a heap on the library floor.
"PRINCESS LUNA!" Twilight exclaimed.
Luna eventually came to and by the time she did she found herself in Twilight's bed with a cool pack and bandages. Each of Twilight's friend's had braved the storm and all of them had now arrived at the library. Rarity was wearing a very fancy rain jacket, Applejack and Rainbow Dash were currently sharing a towel to dry off from the harsh storm, and Fluttershy was cowering as she curled up in a blanket. Pinkie Pie meanwhile was wearing a snorkel, deep sea diving goggles and flippers as well as an inner tube.
"Twilight, I think she's waking up," Spike called to her as the ponies all assembled by the fallen Princess.
"Twilight Sparkle," Princess Luna groaned upon seeing the faithful student of her sister at her bedside.
"Princess Luna, what happened, what's going on?" Twilight asked in deep concerned.
"She's come back," Luna said in a low voice.
"Who's come back?" Twilight asked with growing curiosity.
"Our mother," Luna stated, "Queen Nebula."
"I don't understand," Twilight was confused.
"Twilight our mother…is not like my sister and me. She is…truly evil."
"Evil?" Twilight was greatly confused.
"Listen to me and listen to me well, Twilight Sparkle. You must understand what has happened…
Earlier…
Dusk was reaching Canterlot as Luna was just waking up for the evening and Celestia was getting ready to lower the sun. However, an unexpected guest had arrived at the royal city and was about to change what would have been considered an otherwise normal day in tri-stable area. It was an Alicorn with a turquoise coat and eyes and a crimson, flashy mane and tail, much like Equestria's co-ruling monarchs. On the ankles of her hoofs she wore glass shoes matching her mane with tufts of ethereal energy swirling about her feet. Her cutie mark was that of a black hole. She had olive green eyes and walked along the grass with a sense of grace and poise. The ponies all around her began whispering to each other wondering who she was. Many had not seen her before, though that was understandable. This alicorn had not set foot in Canterlot since before Discord's reign.
However, as she approached the gates of the palace she activated a magic spell and conjured up the Canterlot royal seal. The guards looked into the eyes of the Alicorn bearing down upon them and were stunned. "Y-your majesty." Instantly they subsided and let the Alicorn pass, who made her way to the throne room.
Seeing this, one of the lookouts ran for Celestia's chambers and bolted into the room. "Your majesty, Princess Celestia, her majesty…Queen Nebula has returned to Canterlot."
Celestia gasped and was shocked for a moment, but quickly gained her composure. "Fetch my sister and clear the chambers," she ordered.
"Yes your highness."
Celestia's mother entered the throne room, prying the doors open with magic as her horn glowed crimson.
"Mother, what are you doing here?" Celestia asked, walking towards her.
"I thought I'd come and check up on how my little girl is doing. How long has it been Celestia, one thousand years? Two thousand maybe? It's been so long I've simply stopped counting the years."
The sound of clopping echoed from the hallway as Luna bolted into the room. "Tia, I heard the news and I—" She saw the turquoise Alicorn standing before her and Celestia and skidded to a halt, gasping. "Mother?"
"Ah, good evening to you to, Luna my dear," Nebula smiled at her.
"Mother, is everything all right? I know we haven't seen each other, but I've sent you letters," Celestia was very concerned. Her mother was supposed to be in retirement on a sunny beach far from Canterlot on the Southeastern side of Equestria.
"It's the strangest thing," Nebula said as she approached the throne, "I was trying to recall the other day how and why I left the reign of Equestria to you, Celestia, or even Luna. And then I remembered something," Nebula stood in front of the throne and looked over her shoulder. Her olive green eyes turned bright red. "I didn't." Nebula turned around and flapped out her wings. Her horn shined with magical energy as powerful waves of dark energy resounded from her general area, shattering a few of the windows and shoving Luna and Celestia towards the other side of the room. Casting another spell, Nebula transformed the room tiles and walls to be a dark, blood red. Celestia's throne room went from looking harmonious and delicate to intimidating and demonic. Nebula's form had also changed and she now was wearing Crimson armor and took a form very similar to when Luna was Nightmare Moon only the queen's color scheme was the one that was currently taking up a large portion of the room at the moment.
"B-But…that's impossible," Luna gaped.
"You two have been very bad, usurping the throne from your mother," Nebula said stepping towards Luna and Celestia, "It's high time I took back what belongs to me."
Celestia's eyes converged. "Mother, Equestria is mine now. You are the one usurping."
"Is it usurping to overthrow a usurper? Equestria knows her queen and yearns for her return." Nebula approached Luna and Celestia and slammed the door, cutting off their only means of escape except through the broken windows. "When last you two defied me, I gave you the option to either be banished from the castle, or be physically punished. This time," Nebula's eyes turned blank white with powerful magical energy, "I will not give you that choice."
Dark waves of energy blasted outward from Nebula's horn, making it hard for Luna and Celestia to remain on their feet as the pressure of the waves caused by their mother's ungodly power caused them to stagger.
With all her might, Celestia fired a beam of magical energy at her mother. Nebula blocked with a spherical barrier. Luna tried her hand as well, but her attack was met with the same result. Nebula unleashed a blast wave of red energy to attack her daughters, knocking them into the wall for the second time and causing them to drop to their knees, but both got back up. Celestia charged at her mother extended a constant yellow beam off her horn, locking it with her mother's red one.
"You've improved Celestia. Last time we clashed, I destroyed your magic saber within an instant."
"How did you come back? You shouldn't remember anything at all!" Celestia exclaimed, frowning.
"Why don't you ask that faithful student of yours?" Nebula chuckled darkly.
"What are you talking about?"
Nebula was about to respond but flapped and dodged out of the way as Luna tried to sneak attack on her from above and behind. With a teleportation spell, Nebula pounced on her younger daughter from above, sending her into the floor.
With a flash of energy, Celestia's mane and tail ignited and she flapped into the air and fired off a burst of flame with a single flap of her wings, smashing it into her mother's body, but barely managing to make any sort of impact.
By the time Celestia realized it, Nebula was behind her. Her mother attacked her by jamming her horn into Celestia's hindquarters and electrifying her horn. Celestia was zapped harshly and hit the ground.
Luna rose triumphantly back up to face off against her mother once again. She created a ball of blue lightning with her horn and attacked her mother head on.
Nebula kicked it back at Luna with her hind legs. Luna did the same and returned her attack again. This exchange continued, like a game of tennis, until Luna kicked with such force that Nebula didn't react in time and took the attack to the face. She was thrown backwards, head over hooves, but flapped out her wings to steady herself in midair. Shaking off the disorientation she prepared to strike again, but Celestia was back in the air and conjured up several fireballs. She then launched them all at Nebula with varying trajectories.
The former queen conjured up a small black hole and sucked all of the fire into it, dissipating it. She then dispelled her small tear in the space-time continuum.
"Try this!" Luna declared. Her horn flashed light blue and a beam of ice went sailing towards Nebula. She conjured up the black hole from earlier and used the fire she had sucked into to counter Luna's ice beam. Then with a midair stomp of her hooves, she sent out an aerial tremor, creating more dark waves. The pressure of these waves sent Luna and Celestia hurtling through the air. Both princesses steadied themselves with their wings as Nebula had done before.
With magnificent speed, Nebula charged and then bucked Celestia's right side and blasted Luna with a beam of energy from behind, sending them both into the ground. She landed upon the ground. "Give up, Celestia, Luna. You know it pains me to hurt you."
"We," Celestia rose to her feet, "will never give up." With a fierce war cry she charged at her mother, but with a telekinesis spell, Nebula whipped Celestia completely to the other side of the room, knocking her on her side as Celestia crumpled to the ground in pain as a shard of glass disloged from the broken window and landed upon her body. Thankfully it landed flatly and did not stab into Celestia's skin.
Luna tried to stand, but was too injured to get up. Nebula looked at her and approached slowly. "Wittle Bitty Luna, my second daughter. Such potential you showed, such high hopes I had for you, but you've dashed those hopes of mine and once again stand by your sister against me. I'm afraid I cannot take the risk you would betray me again." Nebula's horn glinted gray. "Farewell."
It all happened so fast, Luna didn't know what had happened until it was far too late. In an instant, Celestia stood between Nebula and Luna and the attack meant for Luna hit Celestia instead. When the bright flash before her eyes cleared, Luna saw what had become of her older sister. Celestia had been turned to solid stone. Her form was majestic and calm. She had come between her mother and sister, facing her mother's attack without backing down, not moving an inch from Nebula's attack. She had protected her sister with her very life.
Luna's eyes trembled. Without Celestia to aid her, the battle was as good as lost. She had no choice. She had to leave Canterlot to gather reinforcements and she knew just who to get. Luna smashed an unbroken window near her with her magic and flew out of it only to see that Nebula had managed to completely transform Canterlot into a town much like the throne room. It was disharmony on a grand scale the likes of which Luna had never expected—or wanted—to see again. Much unlike Discord though, this was organized disharmony and all of the ponies in Canterlot were affected.
"Seize her! The princess of Canterlot seeks to betray her country!" Nebula shouted, sticking her hoof out the window.
Luna took to the skies towards Ponyville. She had to escape her mother's dark tyrannical reign.
"Don't think you can escape from me, Luna dear," Nebula said and arched her back before sticking her chest proudly forward and conjuring up another spell, creating a fierce storm, the fiercest that any city in Equestria had seem in quite a long time. The winds knocked Luna far off course, throwing her about like a rag doll. Lightning struck her three times and it was absolute heck getting out of Canterlot. Luna collapsed once already when she was blasted out of the air by a bolt of lightning, but she came to almost immediately. When she awoke, she realized she was in ponyville just outside city hall. She then got up on her shaking legs and braved the harsh rain and wind towards the library.
Present Time
"And," Luna coughed, "you know the rest."
"I don't understand," Twilight said, with her ears bent down, "Why is your mother doing all of this?"
"Our mother was a disharmonious individual. You…" Luna coughed.
"Don't worry princess," Twilight said with a confident expression, "We'll stop Queen Nebula and put Equestria back to the way it was. Come on girls," Twilight said dashing away towards the basement to get the elements of harmony that she kept in a brief case behind several magic wards. Celestia had given them to her for safekeeping after the Chrysalis incident. In the likely event that Twilight would need the Elements of Harmony again, she figured it was best Twilight hold onto the elements rather than leaving them in Canterlot and so that if the town got taken over, Twilight had the option to retreat rather than sneaking around the castle.
"Twilight…wait…" Luna reached out to her, but found her strength failing her. "Don't…go…" she fainted.
Canterlot
It was an absolute hazard braving the storm back to Canterlot. Thankfully Twilight's magic ward managed to hold up until she was within teleportation distance to bring her friends to Canterlot. However, Canterlot was not what she expected at all. The entire town looked like the apocalypse had just rolled in with buildings demolished and streets on fire. Posters of Nebula's head, looking down at the pony reading it with a caption of 'Obey' were seen all throughout the streets.
The mind controlled guards and soldiers were chasing ponies through the streets. Other ponies were in chains and shackles being ordered into a factory, single file while other ponies were pushing rocks around.
"How horrible!" Fluttershy gasped.
"This is simply dreadful," Rarity added.
"We have no time to lose. We have to make for the palace and fast." Twilight stated.
"Couldn't we just teleport into it?" Applejack asked.
"Princess Celestia's palace is always protected with magic wards to prevent instant teleportation inside, to keep out thieving unicorn ponies. We have to get there the hard way. Come on girls," Twilight began galloping forward. She and the others made their way towards Nebula's castle and burst into the foyer, where upon the queen was waiting for them. She was outside of her combat armor that she had used to fight Luna and Celestia.
"Ah, Twilight Sparkle and her friends," Nebula said as the six ponies glared at the turquoise mare. "I've heard so much about you. And those must be the elements of harmony," she noted the amulets around the necks of Twilight's friends and the tiara upon Twilight's head.
"Queen Nebula, turn Princess Celestia back this instant!" Twilight demanded.
"You barge into my palace and demand things out of me. I thought Celestia taught you better than that."
"We have the elements of harmony. I'm trying to settle this peacefully," Twilight said with a scowl.
"So I see," Nebula said with a smirk. "Well then," she fanned out her wings and smiled. "Hit me with your best shot," she pointed to the center of her chest with the tips of her wings, "Fire away."
"Then you leave us no choice." As they had done twice before, Twilight and her friends summoned the powers of the elements of harmony and blasted Nebula with the power of friendship. However, when the shining nova of friendship power dissipated, Nebula was sitting down, filing her hoof. Twilight's jaw dropped. "H-huh? B-but…?"
"Oh…was that it?" Nebula asked.
"I…I don't understand. It worked on Discord…it worked on Nightmare Moon…"
"Yeah, why don't the Elements of Harmony work on you? You cheater!" Rainbow Dash shouted pointing at the queen with her hoof.
"You've got a lot of guts to say such slanderous words to a queen," Nebula said with a cruel smirk. "But I don't have to explain anything to you. Goodbye bearers of the elements of harmony." Waves of Dark energy exuded outward from Nebula, creating an ocean-like pressure on the six ponies. Rarity screamed in her displeasure from the rumbling. Fluttershy cowered. Twilight watched as best she could as she then saw the five black necklaces and one black tiara Nebula was summoning as they began to circle around her like rotating planets. Twilight tried to conjure up some sort of defense, but in the next instant Nebula unleashed a powerful dark magic attack that sent Twilight and her friends flying into the wall of the entry way and shattering the elements of harmony into tiny pieces. Nebula then walked down the stairs to finish Twilight off as she blacked out.
When Twilight came to though, she was back at the library, in her bed. Cadence was standing over her. "C-cadence?"
"Oh Twilight, thank goodness you're all right."
"What happened?" Twilight groaned.
"You got your flank handed to you that's what happened. Luckily Princess Luna was able to contact Cadence and I and we made it in time to save you and your friends before Nebula made you part of her rock garden." Shining Armor's voice was unmistakable as he came into Twilight's view.
"My great aunt was just so powerful. Even with my love magic, she refused to yield," Cadence frowned.
"You all right Twili?" Shining Armor asked her.
"I'm fine, but…the elements…they didn't work."
"Yes, we heard from your friends," Cadence replied, "Princess Luna said she would explain when you awoke. Come on."
"How is Princess Luna?"
"Better, I applied some first aid to her. She will recover," Cadence explained. "Now come."
Twilight followed her brother and sister-in-law to the basement of the library where Luna was waiting with Twilight's friends. "Ah and here she is at last," Luna said, regarding Twilight, "We've been waiting for you, Twilight Sparkle."
"Luna, what happened? Nebula's magic was so powerful and the elements of harmony didn't work."
"I know, they didn't work. I tried to tell you that." Since Luna was no longer a Canterlot Princess, what with her mother having taken over, she was slipping into more informal speech.
"But…why?"
"I did not finish telling you my story, Twilight Sparkle. When our mother was in power, she wielded a powerful source of magic known as the Elements of Disharmony, though Celestia and I did not discover her source until much later."
"What do you mean?"
"When our mother was in power, Celestia and I were very young. At one point we bravely defied her and told her to stop torturing all the citizens of Equestria and ruling with such an iron fist. Our mother was unhappy with our outright defiance, but she was still our mother so she gave us a choice. We could either be banished from the castle for an undefined period of time or we could be physically punished. Celestia chose banishment for us both. I asked her why and she brought us to the Everfree forest, upon which she introduced me to Discord."
"Whoa, whoa, wait, back up!" Twilight exclaimed, shaking her head violently back and forth before exclaiming, "Celestia and Discord had a history?"
Luna nodded. "Before our mother rose to power, Discord was my sister's friend. She would often sneak away from the castle to go see him. So, when the options were presented to us, she wanted to be banished so she could ask for his help. Discord was a powerful magic user, she believed he had the power to stand up to our mother and he was the one who gave her the courage to stand up to our mother in the first place. With Discord's power aiding us we were able to inflict a powerful amnesia spell upon our mother, robbing her of her memory and turning her into the opposite of what she was, much like you all experienced during the last time Discord roamed free."
"And this is when Discord came to power?" Twilight asked.
"Yes," Luna nodded, "Though Celestia and I had been the ones to defeat our mother, it was Discord who ultimately played the pivotal role and the citizens were practically begging him to take the throne in place of our mother, especially since Celestia and I were too young and inexperienced." Luna looked at the ground in shame, "Stupid, stupid thing to do."
"Princess Celestia said you two discovered the Elements of Harmony to defeat him."
Luna nodded again. "My sister is right. You see, Discord was an okay ruler when he first took to the throne, but much like our mother he abused his authority and he drove everypony mad with his chaos and tyrannical reign with no one to stop him. It took me a while, but I managed to convince Celestia that it was time to say goodbye to her friend. Through research we were able to discover the source of our mother's power and learn of its equal and opposite power: The Elements of Harmony. Since Discord was using the disharmonious elements for his own power we were able to banish him with these elements."
"But I don't understand, if it worked on Discord…"
"Discord was utilizing the elements, but not empowered by them. Nebula is a powerful alicorn so not only can she wield the elements of disharmony, but she can bring out their greatest assets to make her even stronger, therefore the elements of harmony not only will not work on her, but they will simply cancel out her disharmonious elements. However, as you are an inexperienced unicorn, compared to Nebula your power was insufficient to make a complete cancelation," Luna explained.
"One thing still bothers me though," Applejack spoke up, "If y'all used yer fancy magic to mess with the queen's head why didn't she come back to power after Discord was sealed up?"
"An excellent question, fairest Applejack, but one with a simple answer. When Celestia and I sealed Discord we were selective in how we sealed him, leaving that one spell that he cast upon our mother, active, when we purged from the world all he had wrought. It is how he escaped from simple in-fighting caused by three young fillies. However, Twilight Sparkle, when you sealed him, you reset everything, including that spell. Eventually our mother's memory slowly returned and as you can see, she has struck back."
"What do we do then? You're not going to suggest we unseal Discord again are you?"
"That would be the simplest solution," Luna stated.
"But if he breaks out, without the elements of harmony we can't reseal him," Twilight told her.
"One problem at a time, Twilight Sparkle," Luna told her.
"There has to be another way," Cadence spoke up.
Luna thought it over. "Hmmm, there might be."
"Just tell us what we have to do," Twilight stated.
"The jewels of which the Elements of Harmony were crafted from originate from large crystals in the other kingdoms besides Equestria. Perhaps if we revisit these crystals and create a resonance between them, we can restore the Elements of Harmony to a greater state and overpower my mother, defeating her once and for all."
"So we would essentially have to take a trip around the world that means."
"Awww yeah! Road trip!" Rainbow Dash cheered.
"It's not a trip, rainbow one, it's more of a quest, a quest that will test you to your greatest limits," Luna told the young ponies.
"Oooh!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed and ran off out of sight. She came back in two seconds wearing a green tunic and wool cap, carrying a shield and sword on her back with a blue parasprite floating next to her.
"Not that kind of quest Pink one."
"Aww," Pinkie Pie sad sadly as she put her head down.
"Ummm, what are the other kingdoms?" Fluttershy wanted to know.
"As far as I remember the six kingdoms are as follows: the Buffalo Kingdom, keepers of the Crystal of Honesty, the Griffon Kingdom, keepers of the Crystal of Laughter, the Zebra Kingdom, keepers of the Crystal of Kindness, the Dragon Kingdom, keepers of the Crystal of Loyalty, and our kingdom, Equestria are the keepers of the Crystal of Generosity."
"What about the keepers of the Crystal of Magic?" Twilight asked.
"As far as we know that kingdom fell long ago. We know where the Crystal resides, but we believe it is best to save it to last."
"Why?" Twilight asked.
"It is in a difficult place. You will understand when we arrive. For now, we must leave at once. If we rest until morning it will not be safe in Ponyville."
"But where can we go?" Twilight asked.
"If one of the kingdoms is the Buffalo kingdom, we should go to Appleoosa," Applejack stated with a serious look. "Chief Thunderhooves might be able to point us in the right direction."
"Great idea Applejack!" Twilight exclaimed.
"What should we do?" Cadence asked.
"Return to the crystal kingdom," Luna told her. "Our mother will try to overtake every surrounding land in Canterlot starting with the tri-stable area. She will eventually strike your kingdom when she finds out Sombra is no more. If you can defend it from her, it will buy us some time."
"Understood," Cadence stated. She began to head up the stairs.
Before doing the same, Shining Armor went over to Twilight. "Be careful out there Twili."
"You too big brother," she told him. The two nuzzled each other and then Shining Armor followed Cadence up to ground level and out of the library.
"Come my little ponies," Luna said walking in front of Twilight and encouraging her and her friends to head up the stairs, "Our adventure awaits."
With that, while Shining Armor and Cadence made their way back to the Crystal Kingdom, Twilight and her friends headed out towards Appleloosa to rendezvous with the Buffalo. A dangerous journey had begun. A journey to save Equestria from its original, tyrannical queen was underway.
Meanwhile…
In the middle of her newly restored palace, Nebula circled around her stone statue of Celestia. "Ah that was so brave of you, Celestia to protect your sister like that, but of course, I expected nothing less of you." Nebula's horn flashed white. "I could leave you petrified, but of course, I have other uses for you for the time being." Celestia was encased in Nebula's spell and slowly the magic surrounding her began to peel away.
To be continued…
(A/N: So yeah Nebula is essentially the Evil Queen. If you guys couldn't tell already, for those of you that watched the show, part of this chapter, and other parts of the story, borrow from Codename: Kids Next Door: Operation Z.E.R.O. But yeah now the mane six are off on a quest to fully restore Equestria and stop its tyrannical queen from ruling it with an iron hoof. For those curious the Elements of Disharmony and their harmonious counterparts are: Hatred/Kindness, Betrayal/Loyalty, Deceit/Honesty, Greed/Generosity, Seriousness/Laughter, and Dark Magic/Magic. Okay yeah that last one is kind of a cop-out, but hey it is what it is. Will the mane six be able to save Equestria from Nebula's grasp? And just what twisted plot does the high queen have in store for her daughter? Find out in the next chapter of End of All Harmony).
