After King Sombra's rule of both the Crystal Empire and Equestria, he looked down at the Fallen Mane 5, Shining Armor and three out of the Four Princesses of Equestria, he grinned down at them all, seeing how much he had succeeded.
"Hail Sombra!" They all hailed to him.
He then looked down at Princess Cadence, the once Princess of the Crystal Empire, now his Queen. "Anything else you thinking of, darling?"
"Nothing, my Crystal Queen!" He chuckled as he then got up from his throne and grinned. "My rule begins now, and who's going to stop me?!"
Once he roared, Dark Magic around the Crystal Empire, across the winter snows and fog, which also symbolized new Hope.
Meanwhile, in another Universe, inside a Large, Spacious, White Marble Building, a Lone Humanoid creature was doing their own meditating in the middle of a lone room. They had Half Red-Blue Hair, which shined in the Sunlight. They were wearing a uniform-like outfit, which included Black Shorts, a White T-shirt under a Black Shirt and Black Shoes with short heels. They were meditating in front of a Pickaxe-looking weapon, which had the same colour as their hair, but with gold and pink in the middle.
As they were meditating, there was a Violent shake that shook the Building, which made them stop. Just then, two more came inside the room, both looking different, but wore the same uniform. One had Long, flowing Black Hair with Dark Brown on the inside and had Black Eyes while the other had short, Colourless Hair that showed some colour when it hit the light and had The same Coloured eyes at her Hair. Both wore Long Gloves and Thigh-High Socks. Black for the Black one and White for the Colourless one.
"Diamond, Bort. Thought you two would of heard that Quake? It's been going on for days." They said to both of them, as they opened their eyes, which were Heterochromia, with Red and Blue eyes. "We didn't think anything like that could happen those last few days." Bort, the Black Humanoid said.
"We don't know what those Quakes were about, but they did scare the Lunarians for the time being." Diamond, the Colourless Humanoid said. "Kongo-Sensei might know what's going on? Let's go." The Heterochromia Humanoid then got up, but not before they picked up their Weapon as a Green Humming Bird creature then flew towards the Humanoid. "Oh Ming. Didn't think you'll be worried about me?" The Humming Bird, who they called Ming then gave off some small humming sounds as they then left the Room and followed the other two.
Once inside another part of the Building, they saw two other Humanoids on the sides of a much larger Humanoid. The Large one was Bald and also had his eyes closed. He was wearing a Buddhist Monk Kimono and Robes. They opened their eyes, looking down at the three Gemstones. "I see young Phosphophyllite is running a little late, I see." "I'm here! I'm here!"
They were then greeted by another Gemstone, but they were Mint-Green with that colour being in it's Hair and Eyes. "Sorry, I was just looking for a weapon that Spinel could transform into a weapon for me!" They said, smiling nervously, which made them moan at them. "Oh Phos." Spinel, the Heterochromia Gemstone said.
"Now, I know your thinking about these Quakes and what there Origins had come from?" The Man said to them. "Surprised how you know that so quickly, Sensei?" "We were just explaining that to Spinel a while ago!" Diamond said, as Kongo then took a deep breath and got up.
"Spinel, come with me!" Spinel wasn't too sure, but he did follow him. They looked outside the Building, as it showed a Dark Fog surrounding the Building. "A Fog? But Winter isn't suppose to be for another few Months! We'll know if Antarcticite would be ready and the Hibernation would of started." "I know, but this isn't anything we ever faced, and I don't see thing being the fault of the Lunarians." They looked at the Fog as it gotten thicker.
"Whatever comes next, be on your guard! That goes the same for all the Gemstones! Even with your Crystal Weapons and Forbidden Powers, we'll be ready for what comes next!" Kongo then announced to the Gemstone.
Once the talk was over, Spinel looked at Ming, who was humming something. "I don't think that Fog is caused by Lunarians. If it was, then we'll have to fight. Sure Morganite and Goshenite would be excited." "Spinel!"
They were then greeted by Phos again. "Again, sorry for being late. I was trying to find a perfect weapon that you can refrigerate into a Phosphophyllite Weapon that I can handle. I mean sure it'll break easy, but you can make them tougher than any other Weapons Obsidian made and..." As they tried to keep continuing, Spinel grabbed their Shoulders, careful not to break them. "Phos. Do you see that Fog Outside?" Phos knew what they ment, since it might be the cause why the Lunarians weren't attacking. "Yeah?" "I think because of it, it might be alerting something big is coming. Just to warn you quickly, because your Brittle, we all have to be on the our Guard, you included!" Spinel told the Young Gemstone, as they gave them a nod. "Ok, I will!"
Spinel then let go of their shoulders as they walked down the halls, as Phos looked at them. "They didn't say anything about getting me a weapon?" They looked outside one of the windows, seeing the Fog made everything unseen through it now. "Maybe they're right? Perhaps Cinnabar could use some help?" Phos said that they tried to check on the Gemstone they talked about, until they were caught and had to go to sleep.
The Next Day, or wherever the next day is in the world they're in, Spinel was the one to wake up first. They looked around their fellows as they looked outside the Window, which they saw it was dark and snowing, which made them confused. "What the? Snow?" Their talking made other Gemstones wake up and look out the windows, confusing them also.
Once dressed, they all headed to Kongo, who was waiting for them. "From the day before, I didn't think being sent somewhere else was an Option the Lunarians had." He said. "Maybe because we're not in the lands anymore! Look." One of the Gemstones yelled out as the others looked in the distant, finding a Crystal Spire in the distends, made out of Black Crystals, which didn't look like anything they ever seemed. "Guess we're not even on a Moon." Spinel said to their fellow Gemstones.
"I want some Gemstones to check on that Spire! Spinel! You, Diamond, Bort, Morganite and Goshenite all go and see what is. Bring only your weapons, because of whatever Forbidden Power you use may cause more harm who whoever lives there. And make sure you don't get caught!" Kongo ordered, which Spinel listened too. "I'll make sure no one gets Smashed or taken!"
Once their mission was finalized, they got their team together, with Diamond, Bort and two other Gemstones. One was Pink with a large, bushy Ponytail and the other was a a Silver-White with their right side of hair almost covering their eye. "So we're exploring that place instead of Defending ours? Lame!" "Don't say that, Morganite. We might be in the awakening of another Specie?" The Pink Gemstone, Morganite, didn't believe that. "Well, if they're Lunarians, we'll take them out. Right Spinel?" Spinel looked at both Gemstones. "If they do threaten us, remember, we won't be having our Forbidden Powers. Remember, they defend us, not to be used for recklessness. Remember that, would you Morganite? Goshenite?" the Silver-White Gemstone, Goshenite, agreed, as Morganite tried to agree. "Sure, but we'll fight if we're threatened?"
Spinel shook their head, not knowing why Morganite wanted to be Reckless, even if they haven't gone close to the Empire yet. Once they were ready, they were then ready to head out, but were then faced by Snow that was surrounding the Building, but still had grass around it. "Maybe we should ask Kongo about when Hibernation is?" Goshenite suggested, as Spinel was still taking the Lead. "Let's go!"
They then left the Building and headed to the Spire in question, not knowing another Gemstone was going to follow them. "Maybe I can't fight, but maybe I can help?" They said as they followed them through the snowy terrain.
