(P.S this will be the last time I place the disclaimer up because it is obvious that I don't own the show and I give credit where it is due, plus it destroys the atmosphere of the story.

Chapter 1: Mundos seorsum, Dimensions corrumpi

"Reality isn't what it seems...It is better to interpreted as nothing more than a dream"

...

The group of misfit friends laid under the stars lookng up into the vastness of the night. Each pondered their expirience while traveling on their adventures. The changes that they went through, the actions and choices they had to take some which were more dangerous than the last even the friends that they made along the way. Each of them wore a smile on their face at the memories. Finally the seemingly endless silence was inevitably broken.

"Ya know...", Asuna spoke in a soft voice that was unusual to her attracting the attention of the others, "Even though this whole...adventure was crazy and dangerous and down right confusing...I had fun"

"Ya can say that again", Rainbow Dash agreed with a sigh wrapping one arm around Fluttershy's waist and placing the other one under her head.

"Can any of us even remember how any of this began?", Twilight finally spoke up, "Its almost like a dream like we will wake up soon like nothing happened"

"I don't know about you but this isn't a dream from which I want to wake up from", Haruna said, "Even if I did jump on the boat a little later"

"All good things must come to an end, Darling", Rarity spoke

"Oh man I have gotten so much stronger on this trip...", Kotaro wore a determined look on his face, "Negi when we get back we are so gonna have a match at Evangeline's Resort"

"um why there?", the british boy spoke

"Less collateral damage, ah suppose", AppleJack said stroking Rarity's hair

"You suppose correctly, Degosaru", Kaede agreed

"Before any of what it's to come unfolds...", Fluttershy quietly said, "We should take time to remember what happened"

"Yes, Fluttershy's right", Yue sipped from her juicebox, "Who wil like to begin?"

"We will We will!", Pinkie Pie and Konoka said in unison

Things began to change subtly, wind patterns, animal behavior and plant life all were out of place. Thought the pegasi tried, the weather acted on its own and every time they tried to fix it, things got out of hand. Rainbow Dash noticed and tried to do her best to lead the pegasi in restoring things but it just couldn't be done. Fluttershy had the same problem with her animals. Even the most obedient ones ran away into the Everfree forest without a word to their matriarch, Flutteshy felt their distress. Applejack's farm, as well as the plant life, began to dry and wither away. Last remembered drought happen before Equestria was even founded, way too long ago for anyone to place an exact date. Needless to say, everyone began to feel uneasy; things were changing and not for the better.

Twilight began to get unbalanced readings in her Umbra Lector, a little device she had created by accident while attempting to create a machine that helped track magic. It wasn't completely off, instead of magic it read Negative energy. Negative energy was always present but it was balanced by its opposite, Light. Too much on either side could spell trouble, there had to be a balance.

Equestria found harmony by balancing out the energies inside Princess Celestia, the bearer of Light, and Princess Luna, the bearer of dark; until Nightmare moon made her appearance then the energies balanced themselves inside of Princess Celestia. Well, until Twilight found the elements of Harmony and helped reunite the sisters and the rest was history.

The Umbra Lector gauged abnormal amounts of negative energy in the air. Twilight noticed this and quickly got to down research the issue. She found nothing, of course, nothing like this had ever happen in Equestrian History not even during those unnecessary wars for territory, things always balanced themselves out. This particular issue was out of place, it was like the negativa particulas, as she decided to name them for their behavior and composition, were acting as if controlled. Light and dark could not be controlled only channeled, meaning the particles went where they needed to go to balance things out after being expelled by the conduit.

These particles, they were consuming every single existent light particle that hung about in the air making one big mass of darkness that drifted in the atmosphere. No one felt it now only nature and the animals, who were highly sensitive, could sense the change. If left untreated the mass would grow too immense to stop, who knew what would happen then. She needed to warn Princess Celestia.

"Spike take a letter…..", she announced but received no answer.

She looked over only to find the dragon sound asleep in his little basket. A motherly smile crept across her face. She made her way over to him and tucked the blanket snug around his scaly frame.

"I keep forgetting to look at the clock before I say that", she thought to herself, "Alright then"

She walked over to the podium that held her quill and parchment. The familiar magical aura began to glow around her horn as she picked up the quill from the ink well and began to write.

Dear Princess Celestia

I have found an abnormality in the balance of both light and dark particles in the environment around Ponyville. Based on my previous knowledge of the topic, it is safe to say the negative particles are from an outside source seeing as they are "consuming" the positive particles they come into contact with. Negative and positive particles usually balance themselves out in a normal scenario but when you bring nonnative particles into the equations the scales tip towards whatever side they belong to, in this case the negative side. They also show signs of some type of control, like puppets. They act as termites to the positive equilibrium. I will keep doing research on the matter at hand and will try to remediate whatever complications I come across in Ponyville.

Your Faithful student,

Twilight Sparkle

She read the letter over, making sure that there were no spelling errors which would otherwise overshadow the message's importance, at least to her. She rolled up the Parchment and placed it in a basket labeled "send out". She let out a long yawn, finally realizing just how tired she was when her eye lids began to droop. She went up to her room being careful not to wake up the sleeping dragon in his basket. She looked up at the sky smiling as she saw the full moon. She got in bed and cleared her mind of the long night behind her. She relaxed into her bed relishing the warmth and she gave into exhaustion.

...

In Mahora, things were normal. Everyone went about their average days. Students went to class and teachers went to their respective classrooms; all was alright, if you were a normal human being who knew nothing of the existence of magic, that is. Those who were well aware of magic noticed more and more abnormalities in the environment around them as the days went by. Some of the anomalies were beginning to get out of control and it was getting hard to keep them under wraps.

Konoemon, the headmaster, kept sending out well developed mages all around campus to balance out the sudden increase in dark energy; when they tried to track down the source, the answer was always the same, inconclusive. Mana, Kaede and Setsuna kept reporting back phenomena outside of the protective shield around Mahora, some of which made it into the campus. Negi himself had a few encounters with the creature-like shadows in plain daylight and had no choice than to take care of the problem.

Things were getting out hand, Konoemon called a meeting for all mages, Negi included. Something had to be done or the safety of average human folk and magi would be put into jeopardy. As everyone began to file into the meeting room and sat at their respected areas. Negi couldn't help noticing Hakase Satomi and Chao Lingshen were in the meeting room. Something was definitely wrong.

"If the headmaster brought Chao and Satomi into this…..", before he could finish that thought, however, the head master began to speak.

"It is not a mystery why have all of you gathered here today", he says while stroking his beard, "The current situation has been getting out of hand to the point that we had to erase the memories of a few students on campus"

He turned around to face the window, then sighed as he saw the sun begin to set. The attacks were always frequent at night.

"I have had Evangeline examine the issue but the answer is always the same", He turned to Chao and Satomi, "Girls, if you would like to take over from here. Forgive me, I have never been too keen in quantum physics"

"Will do, headmaster"

Satomi said while pulling out a small sphere out of her pocket then tossed it on the table. It rolled then came to an abrupt stop at the center. It flattened into a disc then the whole room lit up. The walls took on a bright blue holographic effect as well as anything that wasn't biological. A map of planet earth hung in the air in front of the magi.

"What you have before you is obviously a 3d map of planet earth.", Satomi pointed with a laser to the general area of the map, "Based on yours truly and Lingshen-san's research done over the last few days, we have found that the dark energy masses that have been attacking Mahora are not just pestering us"

The hologram changed into many images of news casts, videos, posts on social networks and any other mode of information that floated around the internet.

"Attacks have been made in America, Russia, China and so on and so forth", Satomi said while the places on the map lit up in a variety of colors, some red others yellow and even blue, "We have been lucky that this….whatever it is, as unprofessional as it sounds, has not attacked us severely thanks to the shield around the campus and to the diligent work of all the magi and guards we have"

She stopped and casted a look at Chao, who took that as her cue to start talking about the more confounding topic at hand. Chao nodded and walked up and took Satomi's previous position in front of the spectators.

"As lucky as we may be, if we don't find the cause of the problem soon….", she trailed off thinking of a way to word it properly, "these dark masses are like termites they eat at everything. Based on our research, we have found that they feed on, as unbelievable as it sounds, on light particles that hang in the air. Like a computer virus, it kills stations one by one.", various places that were already lost popped up on the screen

These lifeless dark craters peppered certain places where magi didn't inhabit in great numbers. The earth had begun to fall apart slowly.

"Based on the attack data that we gathered from all over the world it will take only a week or so for the whole world to be consumed if we don't find the source.", the map changed again, and now held floating dust like particles.

"These particles come from outside source…"

"Whoa whoa whoa….", one of the magi interrupted, "what do you mean an outside source? Space?"

"We don't know, all we know is that the particles are attacking the rest and I will tell you how we know this."

The hologram now showed three different types of particles white, black and a black sphere that was not like the rest. It looked like it had a gelatinous composition to it.

"You see all, that Buddhist talk about balance was no lie. As it turns out, light and dark matter particles balance each other out. There can be more positive particles than negative particles but negative particles can never surpass the positive, it can have….harmful effects.", she said while looking at the holographic images of consumed landscapes.

"But that's if the particles belong to each other's environment. If you bring a nonnative dark matter particle in to the mix, then things begin to get out of hand. As the new particle begins to "eat" the positive particles, it grows and multiplies as it feeds. All the dark matter native to the environment corrupts once it comes into contact with the nonnative particle and begins to do the same as the 'virus'.", She explained

All of the magi had a look crossed between enthrallment and confounding interest on all their faces. Negi was completely transfixed by the topic. It opened up his eyes on just how complex things really were at a minute level. He wanted to know more, he desired to know just how something so small could create such macro scale effects in the world.

"It is of the upmost importance that we find the source of the problem fast. The more time we waste the more extensive the damage becomes and the more calamitous the effects will be",

Chao concluded and the hologram disappeared, returning the room to its normal appearance. The small disk at the center of the table turned into the sphere once more and began to float in the air. Satomi picked it up the small ball smiled and placed it back in her lab coat pocket both Chao and Satomi bowed to the headmaster.

"Thank you girls, that was…..educational", he said while stroking his beard

The girls left the room. All of the magi began to think of solutions to the problem but unless they knew where the source was located it would be futile to devise a plan to destroy their microscopic scaled enemy. The only thing they could do for now was hold it off, for as long as they could. Only time would tell what would happen.
