The Trap
Far and wide Luna and Celestia sent their guards to track down Spike but they were having no luck, weeks later they still couldn't find him, even when they sent the Wonderbolts and contacts all over but no sign.
"Well Celestia looks like I won the bet" Discord smirked.
Celestia begrudgingly went into the kitchen and made a giant cake for Discord and gave it to him.
"Princess I'm sorry but we can't find him" a guard told Celestia, then it was a day away from the Gala and unknown to them they were being watched, the figure left without a sound and teleported back to the mountains, the figure revealed itself it was Spike.
"This ability to camouflage is going to be so helpful" Spike smiled with satisfaction "And the Gala is the perfect time to attack" he said, he then made a later and focused and faded from view and teleported out again, Spike appeared in front of Derby the mailmare and did another trick he learned, he looked deep into her eyes and his own pupils turned light pale green and her eyes turned the same color.
"You will give this letter to Celestia a few days before the Gala and will not tell a soul you've seen me" Spike spoke strongly.
"I will give this later to Celestia and will not tell a soul I've seen you" Derby replied.
"You will tell her it was a nice stallion asking for help" Spike spoke.
"I will tell her it was a nice stallion asking for help" Derby said
"Better get a move on" Spike said again.
"I better get a move on" Derby replied
"Ciao" Spike said.
"Ciao" Derby said before taking off with the letter, Spike then went to Trottingham
Next days before the Gala Celestia and the others were decorating, when Derby crashed through the doors infront of the hooves of Celestia.
"Hello my little pony what brings you here early" Celestia smiled helping her up Derby handed a letter to her, Celestia lifted it to her face with her magic.
"Hmm it seems the citizens of Trottingham need something that demands my, Luna, Cadance, and Discord help" Celestia spoke.
"Must be something big to have three princesses and Discord's help" Twilight said "And during the gala to on a short notice" she added.
"We will make it short and be back before the Gala starts" Celestia said.
"What if it Ain't short?" Applejack asked.
"Then start the Gala without us" Celestia told Twilight.
"Of course" she replied, Celestia teleported herself and the three Alicorn's and Discord out.
the four Teleported to the outskirts on a hill of Trottinham "So It seemed odd that a letter was giving to us hours before the Gala" Cadance spoke.
"i agree but we must attend" Celestia agreed.
"Who sent thy letter?" Luna asked.
"It didn't have a name, it just said "need help in Trottinham" Celestia told her "But what?" she asked.
"Maybe it has something to do with this" Discord voice they saw him looking at something bellow the hill, they looked and they gasped as they saw, Trottinham was destroyed, buildings were crushed and on fire, white hot flames and black smoke was everywhere, the ponies seemed to have evacuated.
"Trottingham is destroyed" Celestia gaped.
"Something is funny about the fire" Luna voice "It parts of it look to have some green" she said.
"Well it looks like a Storm is coming" Discord said looking at Black clouds with a really dark green mixed in.
"Hmm I haven't been to Trottingham but this place have very funny storm clouds" Discord said.
"We haven't either" agreed the others as they got closer to the small town.
"Has anypony or a Discord else get the feeling of chills running up your spine?" Cadance asked.
"Same feeling, I don't like this, Don't like it at all" Celestia replied, then she looked at the clouds and saw something flicker and thunder crashed and then a purple lightning bolt flashed across the distance.
"Purple lightning" Luna said with puzzlement.
"black and dark green clouds" Discord said in his head.
"Whitish green fire" Cadance said in her mind as she was close enough to see green mixed in.
then it hit them like a lightning bolt and they became instilled with terror and every instinct was telling them to "RUN!"
"We need to leave now" Celestia said with fear in her tone, then something slammed into the ground making the ground tremble and crack heavily and a big and strong hand grabbed all 4 in a tight grip and A 30 foot Spike in beast mode had them in a clawedhand and had a viscous and predatory smile on his face.
"Hello long time no see" Spike said in his monstrous voice before a wicked laugh escaped his massive mouth "Wuahhahahaaaaa ahhahhaaaa!" before he tightened his grip hard enough to make them black out.
"I like seeing terror in my enemies eyes, it feels great and gives me a sense of amusement" Spike smiled evilly before he vanished with his capture.
