[MLP FiM] Tree Castle Takeover

*Inside an ancient fortress residing in a land outside of Equestria*

"So the Equestria and it's guardians have fallen." Said a tall dark colored armored being as he watched their fall on a screen with a sigh "And it seems my intervention is necessary to settle this matter." He continued as he turned from the screen "Dealing with the vines would be a problem, fortunately I have a means to deal with it." he said as he sent out a mental command that summoned a full platoon of differently colored armored beings bearing spines on their backs each wielding a staff "There are thorny vines in the Everfree that need to be dealt with, destroy the forest if you must but leave no vines intact, I will deal with the ones responsible for it now go to my airship and prepare enact my will." he said with each figure nodding with a hiss in acknowledgement of their orders as he sent a telepathic message to the Celestia Sisters: "Stay strong Celestia and Luna for I am on my way."

*In Equestria*

Sitting in a cell are two mares one being taller than the other with the one having white colored fur with a rainbow colored mane and tail sporting a horn and a pair of wings being the taller of the two one with dark blue fur with a mane and tail colored as the night sky whom is also sporting a horn and two wings being the smaller one "Tia do you think there's hope left?" asked the smaller mare with a worried expression.

"I don't know Lulu." She responded with a dejected sigh lowering her head to the ground.

Suddenly they heard a voice in their heads say "Stay strong Celestia and Luna for I am on my way." which caused both of their ears perked up as their heads lifting up with a hopeful look on their faces as both are familiar with it.

"Did you hear that Lulu?"

"I did Tia, do you think he'll be victorious?"

"I believe so as we've never seen him cut loose before."

"Even we fought him those thousands of years ago?"

"He told me as such during the time of your banishment."

"Then I almost pity most of them if that's the case, considering the state that the two of us were in when after we fought him."

Both of them looked out of their cell and began to recite a poem

"When good begins to fail

And evil starts to prevail

From afar he shall join the fight

All shall bow before his might

To the power of shadow evil shall fall

For they’re at their Lord and Master’s beck and call

Beware those who make good's situation dire

For you will have earned his ire

And shall be purged in battle and fire

Beware those who earn his wrath
For none can divert his path."
