[Sombra x Reader] Rise of the Legend. ✔️

Chapter 41 - The Darkness Strikes. Pt. 1

After about a week, I was so glad to be with Sombra again and have everything back to normal. The Crystal ponies eventually stopped questioning as to why their Queen was gone for three weeks right after her wedding, and I sent letters to Twilight explaining what happened as I promised her I would. She wasn't happy about it, but she was glad to hear it wasn't all as bad as they all thought.

The only small issue was that I still felt sort of guilty about abandoning Stello like that and at times I even went to Sombra asking him whether I can go look for Stello, but he forbid me from doing so. On one hoof, he had a point about both of us not really knowing what kind of pony Stello is, but on the other hoof, during those three weeks I spent with him, Stello has really proved to be a caring pony with a difficult past, but Sombra stubbornly refused to acknowledge that.

It was a warm cloudless night as I was laying face down on a table with a mare named Velvet Touch standing beside me and giving me a massage. It was Sombras idea, because he was busy and had some documentations to fill out with the Crystal Coin bank and he would probably stay up all night doing so, therefore he wouldn't have been able to keep me company tonight. I didn't mind it of course, he's a King and naturally he had many jobs to do.

I watched the jeweled night sky through an open curtain whilst thinking of Sombra. Velvet massaged my back thoroughly and hummed a pleasant tune. Nothing could have gone wrong tonight, right?

* Location: Canterlot Castle *

I crept slowly through the dim corridors of the castle. My ears perked up as I listened carefully to the darkness. Pleased to hear nothing besides the gentle tapping of my hooves, I made my way to the Great Hall. Knowing what's about to come next, my heart silently drummed in my chest and my legs shook, but I continued my journey anyway.

Upon arrival, I peered inside the Hall. It was empty, or at least it would seem so to a random pony, but I knew I wasn't in fact alone...

Tap tap tap...

My hooves echoed on the smooth marble as I entered and stood myself firmly in the middle. Looking around the walls, I thought to myself: What can I say? He will surely punish me...

"Luuuuunaaaaaaa..." Said a cold, raspy voice suddenly, breaking me out of my thoughts.

At an instant, my heart drummed even faster and I looked around. He was somewhere here.

"M- my Lord?" I spoke softly, but my voice shivered.

Suddenly came what I was waiting for; The Dark Lord. His shadow slithered across the wall as he circled me, and I followed his movement with my gaze.

* Location: Everfree forest *

The trees rustled and small twigs snapped under my hooves as I crept calmly through the Everfree forest. It was a calm and pleasant night, and I was doing my usual patrol making sure that there could be no dangerous creatures around that could scare ponies.

My thoughts were occupied with how Celestia earned more attention from our subjects than me, its not fair! I huffed air angrily. I tried to talk many times to Tia about how I feel, how the ponies shun my beautiful night and adore her day but she always told me not to worry. Ridiculous.

"Luuuuunaaaaaa" Whispered a cold, raspy voice. I stopped suddenly and looked around.

"Who is this?" I asked. "Show yourself!"
