Rulers of the Night: Chapter Seven
Okay….I'm really busy so chapters of things are going to be a bit slow but I am trying. :D :D Enjoy the next chapter wonderful and lovely people! :D :D
The "visitors" crept up to her and quickly grabbed her. They put their hooves over her mouth to prevent her making any noise.
She woke up at the small touch of them grabbing her. She tried to wiggle free from their hooves but they were all stallions and were stronger than her by quite a bit. One had his hooves around her waist, the other her mouth, and the last had his hooves around her neck. Out of nowhere, a black and red pony came from the shadows and smiled wickedly at her.
"Hello my dear princess, sleepy are we? I would think that the princess of the night would be less tired when it is her time to watch over her…rather boring and uninteresting night," he said, rolling his eyes and obviously making an effort of trying to get to her.
"Mmmhhhmmhhhh!" Luna tried to yell at him and get attention from somepony but nopony was around to save her. They were all asleep, except for maybe her guards but they were on patrol elsewhere.
"Ah, looks like we have a feisty one here," the red and black stallion said.
Luna grimaced as he traced his hoof on the outline of her chin. He smiled down and looked her directly into her eyes.
"You'll soon regret ever coming back here," the stallion said with a wicked grin plastered on his scared face.
"Mhhhmhhhh!" Luna mumbled. She then bit down on her attackers hoof. The one stallion that had been unfortunately had that job of covering her mouth, yelped and pulled his hoof back. "I do not know who you are but I did nothing to you so leave me alone! Help! Help! Help! Help Please!" Princess Luna yelled.
"Ha! You think that yelling will help? You're sadly mistaken. Your guards are elsewhere, other ponies are sleeping, and Princess Celestia is a bit…tied up at the moment," the leader said, chuckling evilly.
"My subjects could wake up and-"
"Your subjects? You mean your sister's? You are only second rate to her. You know this to be true or else you wouldn't have ever turned evil. You were jealous because you know you'll never compare to her. It's funny to me really. Of course, if you wouldn't have, you still would have been kidnapped and killed sooner or later," he said.
"K-killed?" Luna asked nervously, worrying for her own life now.
"Yes…it's drastic but necessary. You are too dangerous to be alive," he said as he turned and made a signal to follow him to his goons. They did as they were instructed and pulled Luna with them.
"I-I have changed…I am not dangerous. I swear…I will do better…just please do not kill me," Luna pleaded.
"Sorry, these are not my rules. I am given orders and I have to follow them. There's no getting out of it."
They all started to the place where they would be leaving her until it was time. She had no idea where they were taking her and at this point, she was starting to give up hope.

Leans Flair woke up with a nervous and worrisome expression on his face. He started getting a feeling that felt like nothing he had ever felt. He knew it had something to do with Princess Luna and he was going to find out why he got that feeling.
He got up and started his way to the castle, flying over building to try and avoid being seen by anypony awake at this late hour. It was possible for them to be up after all, unlikely, but possible.
He looked down, keeping an eye out for anypony. So far there was nopony up that he could see.
When he finally arrived at the castle, he was surprised that Luna was not at the telescope. It was her job to watch over the night and make sure nothing happened. Why would she not be there?
To him, this situation was getting stranger and stranger every second.
He flew up to the telescope and saw Princess Luna's crown lying on the balcony. He looked at it and then looked down the spiral stairs leading down to the other parts of the castle grounds. He saw red drops on the ground and little shades of mud on the ground. They were hard to see but he was very alert at this moment. He was very worried about Princess Luna. Those red drops sure looked an awful like blood. He gulped.
He then shook off his worrisome thoughts and decided to look for the princess. He followed the trail of red droplets.
He finally got to his destination and looked up from the floor to see a big black door, with locks preventing anypony from entering. He of course now knew for certain that that was where Princess Luna was.
He looked into the bars on the door and saw a little bit of the inside. He looked around and saw Luna in chains on a wall. She looks scared and looked as though she had been harmed. He decided that those red droplets had to have been her blood.
He looked inside again to make sure nopony was in there keeping guard. When he saw that nopony was in there, he called to the princess.
"Princess Luna…Princess Luna," he called. She looked up from the round and saw him. She exhaled with hope and excitement from seeing the one stallion she always loved to see.
"Leans Flair…h-how did you find me?" Luna asked curiously.
"I'll answer that later. We have to figure out how to get you out of here and then we can both do some explaining. Now, let's see if-"Leans Flair was soon cut off by sounds of hoof steps coming from the spiral staircase. He gasped and made a motion to Princess Luna to be very quiet. He then flew up to the ceiling and stayed as quiet as he could, waiting for whomever was coming down here to leave so he could try and save Princess Luna.
CLIFF HANGERS! MUHAHAHAAH! Lol. There will be more to come soon. :D :D Love yas! 3 3 :D :D
