CHAPTER 8: SHATTERED HEART

Nightmare Star was panting heavily, but standing up with pure contempt, anger, and evilness. The dark magic was surrounding her, as part of the reason why. In fact, she grabbed a hold of Quetzal with her dark magic and the four dragons shout out in fear,

"Quetzal!"

Nightmare Star threw Quetzal to his imprisonment space next to Twilight, her friends, and even the human kids, with her eyes dilated at Luster, the dragons, and her friends.

"You haven't beaten me, yet!" she winced, and started to evolve as thunder rumbled magically.

"Looks like it's not over yet, guys," Luster added.

As Nightmare Star kept on transforming, she starts letting out a fierce roar.

"Oh, I got a bad feeling about this!" Cassie whimpers after hearing Nightmare Star's roar.

"Okay, this is bad!" Ord added in.

Suddenly, Nightmare Star grew until Canterlot rumbled. The dragon body parts appeared from her as she continued roaring ferociously.

"Look! She's transforming again!" cries out Wheezie.

"Whatever you do, brace yourselves, everybody!" Zak warns.

Nightmare Star laughed wickedly as she stopped evolving; she has turned into both a dragon queen and goddess!

"Know my name, everybody! For I am Queen Nightmare Star, the goddess of the Dark Forces of Equestria!" Dragon Queen Nightmare Star says,

"I've never became so powerful until now! The thing is that I'm starting to become like a dragon! MINIONS!"

The minions reacted, and flew to their boss, who was a dragon.

"Get them!" Dragon Queen Nightmare Star announced and roared out for an attack, and her minions began to attack the dragons, Luster, and her friends.

Luster reacted, and bravely came up with a plan,

"I have a plan. Cassie, Ord, you and my friends help fight Dragon Queen Nightmare Star's minions. Me, Zak, and Wheezie will try to bust Twilight, Spike, her friends, Quetzal, and even the human kids out of here, but to get the pink stones to get Zak and Wheezie conjoined back."

"Yes!" Ord replies.

"We got you!" Cassie agrees.

"We're on it!" Sundance, Ambrosia, Lil' Cheese, Baron, and Hazel Garden reply in unison.

"Alright, let's go!" Luster announced and everyone else got into battle.

Luster, Zak, and Wheezie were running to get the pink stones, but a voice yells,

"Luster!"

Luster, Zak, and Wheezie turned, and saw Twilight, Spike, and her friends looking at Luster with apologetic expressions. Quetzal nodded to Luster, as if he told Twilight and her friends everything about everything that happened.

"About the suspicion I feel about the dragons, I'm sorry," Twilight says,

"You have done the right thing!"

"But you should've told me that dragons don't make friends with ponies, just like I'm doing," Luster replies sadly.

"No, it's my fault," Twilight says,

"I didn't even know these four dragons want to make friends and help us. We mess up, but never give up hope yet. I want you to help those who needed one."

Luster reacted, teared up, sobbed with relief as she hugged Twilight, who did the same in return.

She handed Luster the special medallion that used to be as a gift in case of attacks and for power use.

"Now do what you're doing for the dragons, and remember, the magic of friendship grows," Twilight said with a smile.

Luster smiled while holding her special medallion that was worn on her neck and went back to Zak and Wheezie to continue attempting to take the pink stones from the guarding locks for the two to be conjoined.

"And what do you think you're doing with these?!" an evil voice says.

Luster, Zak, and Wheezie cried out as they saw Dragon Queen Nightmare Star.

"How about I get rid of you if dragons are not meant to be friends?!" she continues,

"Oh, maybe I could torture this?!"

Dragon Queen Nightmare Star snatched Wheezie, who screeched in fear.

"Wheezie!" Luster cried.

"No, sis!" Zak shouted in fear as he tried to grab his sister out of Dragon Queen Nightmare Star's grasp of clawed hands, but realized how powerful she was.

"Unhand me, you witch!" Wheezie yelled,

"Why would you do this to us dragons?!"

"Because dragons are enemies to ponies!" Dragon Queen Nightmare Star scolded,

"I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE PRINCESS OF EQUESTRIA, but now I'm a queen, of dragons AND ponies!"

With that, she threw Wheezie to the ground.

Zak gasped as Luster did the same, partially in extreme shock.

"Any last words?" Dragon Queen Nightmare Star asks evilly.

Wheezie looked up at the evil dragon queen goddess in pain, but managed to stand up to her.

"... F- Friendship is magic," she winced painfully.

This has left Dragon Queen Nightmare Star in shock.

"Wheezie!" Emmy, Max, and Enrique shouted in fear while gripping to the bars of the cage.

Twilight and her friends reassured the human kids while looking at Dragon Queen Nightmare Star in extreme shock, but they're still in their imprisoned spaces.

Luster and Zak were all shocked at the same time. Dragon Queen Nightmare Star smiled evilly, and laughed wickedly as she had her dark magical powers ready.

"No one can defeat me, help out these pathetic dragons, and free the humans and the alicorn princess!"

Then, after gesturing to Twilight, Dragon Queen Nightmare Star blasted out her dark magic, which brightened with red fire. The magic was going at a speedy but slow motion. In alert, Luster cried out,

"Wheezie, watch out! It's heading right towards you!"

With big eyes popped out, Wheezie closed her eyes, as if she will meet her fate and face the facts that her life would end. But on the other hand, Zak was left no choice but to save his sister just in time, and Luster tries to grab him by the tail, but misses, so she yells out to him to not do this.

"Wheezie!" shouted Zak as he ran as quickly as he can to save Wheezie, but all of a sudden, Dragon Queen Nightmare Star's dark magic had shot Zak on the side!

He let out a loud scream, echoing the whole area.

Hearing Zak's painful screams, Ord, Cassie, Sundance, Ambrosia, Lil' Cheese, Baron, and Hazel Garden turned around in shock as Dragon Queen Nightmare Star's minions did the same. They were all in extreme shock. Nightmare Star changed her expression similarly after realizing what she had done.

After getting shot on the side, Zak was flung close to the floor, feeling pale, and he fell limp to the ground.

In the cage, human kids were in fear; Emmy and Enrique were comforting Max right after they gasped.

Luster gasped in shock with tears. On the other hand, Wheezie stared at her brother in extreme shock.

Tears ran from her eyes as she kept looking at Zak. Wheezie shook fear with her heartbeat was felt moving inside her body and made a small gasp before doing anything.

"ZAK!" she screamed in a shrill voice.


... OMG! :( *sob* What have I done?! *sob* No flames, and please find out in the next chapter!
