Heart of Darkness (King Sombra x Reader)

Ours... or, His.

Twilight and the Mane 6 are frozen in shock, their eyes wide as they stare at the broken elements.

"No... it can't be..." Twilight gapes.

Sombra laughs once again, a cruel and victorious sound. "Now, there's nothing stopping me from claiming what is rightfully mine. Nothing standing in my way."

"O-ours?" I ask hopefully, knowing I'll be met with a harsh glare. Worth a shot.

Sombra turns to me, his expression darkening as I speak up. He glares at me coldly, his eyes narrowing. "I said mine." he snarls, his voice low and dangerous. "The empire is mine, and mine alone. And you... you are nothing more than a loyal but insignificant pawn in my game."

I giggle nervously. "Ahaha... just a joke, my king."

Sombra's glare hardens further, clearly not amused by my attempt at a joke. He steps closer to me, his voice cold and condescending. "Know your place, my little pet. You are mine to use as I see fit. You are not my equal, nor will you ever be. You are a tool, a lowly pawn in my grand scheme. Never forget that."

"Yes, my king," I sigh.

He smiles at my quick obedience, clearly pleased by my submission. He reaches out a hoof and runs it along my cheek in a gesture that might almost be affectionate... but is more likely just patronizing. "You know, you please me more and more every minute, little one. Never before have I had such a loyal and obedient subject."

I smile back at him. "Go take the Crystal Empire, my king. I'll be waiting."

Sombra chuckles darkly at my eager smile, amused by my devoation. He looks back at the shattered elements, then at the Mane 6 standing defeated before him. "And how could I refuse such a delightful and loyal request from my favorite pet?" he says, a sinister grin on his lips. "You will wait here... and watch me claim what is rightfully mine." 

He then turns and starts to walk toward the Crystal Empire, his every step exuding confidence and power. He glances back at me over his shoulder, a smirk on his face. "Stay here, my little pet. And do not move, or I shall punish you severely."

I shudder slightly as he struts off and turn to Twilight with a smirk, my voice singsongy. "How does it feel, Twilight? To lose?" I coo.

Twilight glances over at me, her expression weary and defeated. The rest of the Mane 6 stand beside her, their heads hung low in defeat.

"I... I don't understand," Twilight says softly. "How could you betray us... your friends? How could you give yourself to... him?" 

"You're not my friend," I snarl. "And I don't even know the other five of you annoyingly positive ponies." With my magic, I quickly surround all six of them in a cage. They all gasp as they find themselves trapped in my magic cage, their eyes wide with shock and disbelief. 

"H-hey, what's the meaning of this?" Twilight cries out. "Let us go!"

"I will, sweetie, once you bow to my king when he takes over," I laugh.

Twilight glares up at me, her expression defiant. "I will never bow to Sombra!" she exclaims pathetically. "He is a monster, just as you are for helping him."

I glare right back at her. "You will address him as KING Sombra!"

She flinches at my sudden outburst but still refuses to give in. She lifts her chain defiantly and stares at me. "I will never refer to him as anything but a monster. And the same goes for you, for selling your soul to his evil."

"Awww," I chuckle. "I'm sure he's taking care of your friend, Cadance, now too."

Twilight's eyes widen in horror as she realizes what I'm implying. Her face pales, and her voice trembles as she responds. "No... no, you're lying. He... he wouldn't do something like that to Cadance, would he?"

"And that adorable little baby? What was her name?" I continue to mull as I circle the cage.

Twilight looks absolutely horrified at my words, her eyes wide with shock and fear at the thought of what Sombra might have done to Flurry Heart, the young baby alicorn. "N-no... you... you can't mean... he wouldn't, that's... that's barbaric!"

"Relax," I giggle. "We... I mean he... will just imprison them away from here. No real harm."

Twilight looks at you with a mix of anger and desperation. She bangs her hooves against the cage, trying in vain to escape. "Why are you doing this?! Why are you helping him?! He will only bring misery and darkness to the Crystal Empire, you know that!"

I roll my eyes and my horn glows with magic as Sombra walks back into the throne room triumphantly. He struts in, a victorious smirk on his face. He looks over at me and the imprisoned Mane 6, clearly pleased by the scene unfolding before him.
