The Crystal Empire, once ruled by an evil tyrant king, its citizens forced to be his slaves; a kingdom once lost to the passages of time was now thriving and as beautiful as ever. Thanks in no small part to six mares, a dragon, and a royal couple who now ruled over the land. At the moment the crystal ponies seemed to be on edge, some looking up at the Crystal Palace with anxious gazes, as if worrying something would burst forth from its sparkling halls and attack them. But for the moment that wasn't the case, so they tried to go about their day.
Inside, Princess Cadance was entertaining a guest, a newcomer to both the Crystal Empire and Equestria itself. She was lying on a cushion across from her guest. The other pony was a unicorn mare of sixteen, with a dark pink coat. Her long mane and tail were pink, with red highlights. Her eyes were a brilliant violet color; it was as if beauty and ferocity were mixed together within those eyes. Her cutie mark was that of an eight pointed star, an odd cutie mark, but Cadance knew of its origins.
"I must say Princess Cadenza, it's such wondrous thing to meet another who shares in my power," said the unicorn excitedly.
"T-thank you, but please, call me Cadance."
"Oh, my apologies, Cadance, but honestly, I've never felt this much love energy upon one world, it's almost overwhelming, how do you cope with it!?"
"Well it's actually not that hard, but –"
"And this Empire," the unicorn mare stood up from her cushion and moved around the room, "such beautiful crystals, they shine so brilliantly, and so do the citizens! Tell me, are they actually made of crystal or are they just magically enchanted to look like that?"
"It's an interesting story, but please could you –"
"You simply must show me around your Empire, I want to hear all about it –!"
"PREDATOR!"
The pink unicorn mare went silent and stared at Cadance.
"Sorry, Predator, I would love to show you around, but could you please do me one little favor?"
Predator smiled happily, "Of course, anything."
"Would you please release my husband," she asked pointing a hoof towards the other side of the room.
There was Shining Armor, the older brother of Twilight Sparkle, Captain of the Royal Guard, Prince of the Crystal of Empire, and he was trapped in large violet crystal pillar with a look that was a mixture of anger and shock. Predator frowned.
"Must I, we were having such a wonderful time. And it's not as if it's hurting him, if anything I'm sure he's enjoying being in there. The crystal puts him in a state of suspended animation and shows him his desires," she said.
"Be that as it may, Shining Armor is my husband and if you're going to be living here that means you'll also be staying here with him as well."
Predator sighed, "Very well, but keep in mind I did it out of self-defense."
Cadance just smacked herself on the forehead at that statement. Predator's horn glowed with violet light, with flash of energy the crystal prison shattered completely, releasing Shining Armor. The white unicorn stallion shook his head multiple times, holding a hoof to his head. Cadance moved towards her husband and placed a hoof on his shoulder.
"Honey, are you alright?"
"Y-Yeah, I think so. I was having some weird dreams…well not weird, they were nice dreams, about you and…" Shining Armor quickly went silent as his cheeks went red.
"What, what did you see," asked Cadance.
"Probably something he's always desired of you, but was afraid to ask," said Predator.
That's when Shining Armor, grateful for the distraction, looked upon the unicorn mare curiously. "Hello Miss, um, who are you, I don't believe we've met."
"Oh we did, I just wasn't in this form when we did."
Shining Armor cocked an eyebrow, Cadance decided to fill in the gaps. "You might want to sit down; this is going to be a long story. Do you remember when I was summoned to Cantertlot a few days ago?"
Shining Armor rubbed his chin, trying to recall that particular day. After about a minute the metaphorical light bulb clicked and he nodded in confirmation.
"Well…"
(Canterlot, a few hours ago)
Cadance was walking down the grand halls of the Royal Palace. She, along with Twilight and her Aunts, had found out that the other three entities had all somehow settled in Ponyville. Cadance didn't know if that was for best, seeing as how some natural disaster or world ending scenario usually starts there, and having the entities of willpower, hope, and compassion there did little to ease her mind. However, the fourth would be a different story. The Entity had tasked Princess Cadance with a mission concerning the fourth entity, one that she wasn't sure she could accomplish.
"Help her understand love?" What kind of a request is that, the fourth is supposed to be love incarnate, my title may be the "Princess of Love," but compared to her I might as well be a considered little more than a fly, probably less than that.
Cadance sighed.
Oh well, I can't really ignore this, who knows, I might be able to help. Hope Shining Armor's ready to receive a new house guest, she thought.
The pink alicorn made it to the large double doors of the west wing; she knocked on the doors with a hoof, announcing her presence.
"Enter," said a voice from within.
Cadance used her telekinesis to open the one of the doors; suddenly her vision was filled with violet light, making her squint her eyes in order to see. The light dimmed a bit, allowing her to see a young, dark pink unicorn mare standing at the epicenter of the light. It dimmed down considerably, allowing her to look upon the mare more clearly. When the young mare spotted the alicorn her expression lightened, she smiled widely as she approached.
"Princess Mi Amore Cadenza, you came to see me!"
"O-Of course, why wouldn't I," asked Cadance.
"I just thought after you first saw me in my true form you'd be a little apprehensive about seeing me again…not everyone is as accepting that a creature like myself is the entity of love," said the mare frowning.
"Predator, it's fine. I'm not going to pretend I understand why you all look the way you do, but that's just how you were born, and what you all came to be, besides, I think your true form sorta captures what love is, fierce and powerful."
The young unicorn's eyes lit up upon hearing those words of praise and moved in to embrace Cadance. The pink alicorn felt a surge of energy flow through her body whenever she came into contact with Predator; she was love energy in its purest form, given life. Her own special talent allowed Cadance to feel the love of other ponies, but with Predator latched onto her, it was as if she became an antenna of for every living creature's amorous affections. So, rather quickly, Cadance broke the embrace, smiling gently at Predator.
"So, what did you wish to discuss with me, Mi Amore Cadenza?"
"Ahem, well, since it appears that your fellow entities have settled in I thought it was about time you did as well," said Cadance.
Predator's ears flattened against her skull, her expression becoming worried. "You're going to send me away…? Am I to go where the others are?"
"No, the opposite in fact, Ponyville is…let's just say it has one too many power players for my comfort, and I don't want to add a fourth. So, I was wondering if you wanted to come and live with me in my kingdom."
Predator lit up once again, her ears perked up, eyes glittering. "The Crystal Empire, I've heard that's where you live, yes I would love to!"
"Good, well, when you're ready, I have a carriage waiting to take us –"
"Oh no, that will not do for one who wields the same power as I! We will return to your Empire in a fashion more befitting of our titles!"
"O-Okay…just what did you have in mi –?"
"For hearts long lost and full of fright,
For those alone in Blackest Night.
Accept this power and join our fight,
Love conquers all with violet light!"
Another flash of violet light engulfed the room; it was powerful, and brighter than the previous flash before. Suddenly Cadance heard a loud boom, a rush of cool air swept over her body, along with some dust, making her cough and sneeze a bit. When the light faded Cadance gasped at what she saw. A creature with a violet crystal like exoskeleton, standing a hundred feet tall, four arms with razor sharp talons, and large dagger like fangs, was now looming just a few feet outside the broken wall of the palace. Predator's true form, which exhumed a powerful love aura, was only matched by her intimidating and monstrous appearance.
"P-Predator what are you doing!?"
"As I said, we will away to your Empire in a fashion most befitting our titles! And what better way than for the both us to arrive together, with our power radiating down upon your subjects," said Predator.
"That's a nice idea, but remember, the Entity said that you and the others were to keep a low profile and –!"
Cadance suddenly felt something coil around her midsection, the next thing she realized she hoisted into the air, and quickly placed on Predator's back. The large violet beast turned its head and looked at her fellow love wielder.
'Then let us away with great haste! Point me in the direction of your Empire!'
Knowing that it wouldn't take long before all of Canterlot was in a state of panic, Cadance frantically pointed her hoof to the north. With her direction made clear, Predator rose into the air and shot off towards the frozen north. The wind whistled in her ears as the land below them became a literal blur of colors. Being this close to Predator, in her true form was very overwhelming to Cadance. It brought up a lot of embarrassing feelings inside her, ones that she hadn't felt since she found her special talent and was a little overwhelmed about feeling the love energy of those around her. It led to some rather embarrassing situations, both humorous, humiliating, and some leaning a tad on the side of sensual. It felt like when she was a filly all over again, only multiplied by the power of ten.
Cadance, feeling a little light headed, and hot, saw the landscape change beneath them. From the greens, blues, and browns of the lush land, now only white flowed. She barely felt the cold; in fact, Cadance didn't feel any of the cold. Predator's energy created a warm glow around them, keeping the bone chilling cold at bay. It wasn't long before Cadance saw the Empire come into view, it was the only place where the clouds were opened and sunlight shined down.
'Is that it, is that your Empire?!' Predator asked.
"Y-Y-Yes…!"
'Are you feeling sick, am I going too fast?'
Right now Cadance was wishing it was motion sickness, instead of this burning feeling within her. Soon Predator slowed down, allowing the distinct shapes and figures to come into focus. The crystal ponies down below all gasped, their faces frozen in shock and terror as Princess Cadance and the Predator came flying into the Crystal Empire. Many ran inside their homes, the newly inducted Diamond Knights had assembled around the Crystal Palace, all armored, wielding spears, shields, and swords. At the balcony of the palace, one guard, none crystal, wearing purple and gold armor, stood proud and fearless. This white unicorn stallion, horn glowing with a rosy aura, created a giant force field around the Crystal Palace.
'The nerve, your warriors bear arms at the sight of their Princess! And that one, he wishes to deny us entry! Well, challenge accepted!'
"Predator wait don't –!"
Too late, the violet beast swiped its talons at the barrier, easily shattering it with a single blow. The stallion was blown back the recoil of his spell being destroyed, but just as quickly regained his composure, ready to fight against the Predator.
'Such a cocky male, to think he can match me. I do admire his courage and tenacity, you shall be spared!'
Predator slammed its claws into the balcony; suddenly three trails of violet crystals rose up from the point of impact. The three strands became and snaked their way towards the stallion. He didn't have time to react, as the violet crystal surrounded him, shooting upwards and incasing him in a pillar made of the crystal. Satisfied that the stallion would no longer be a threat, Predator used her tail to gently grab Cadance, who looked positively flustered, and gently placed her on the undamaged portion of the balcony. Afterwards, her form changed to that of the teenage mare she was before as she joined Cadance on the balcony.
"Well that was fun," said Predator with a smile.
Cadance, now coming down off the euphoric love energy, was now able to fully grasp the situation at hoof.
(Present)
"So basically after that it took me hours to calm down the Diamond Knights, and even longer to reassure the citizens that Predator was not a threat to any of us," Cadance let out a long drawn out sigh, retelling the events thus far was a little more stressful than she had realized.
Shining Armor just sat there, going over the details about what Cadance had just told him. What was a little unsettling was that Predator was sitting next to Cadance, closer than the stallion would like after hearing that story. The unicorn stallion shook his head, bringing his train of thought back to the present elephant in the room.
"Okay, so, she'll be staying with us for…how long exactly?"
"Ahem, well, um, the entities are all going to live here in Equestria, indefinitely, so…for the time being…Predator will be staying with us, indefinitely," said Cadance, offering a weak smile to her husband.
Hearing the word "indefinitely" made Shining Armor feel uneasy, having a violet- colored-skeleton-crystal-love-raptor living with them for the foreseeable future was a little disconcerting. A feeling that was only made even worse by what he saw happen in front of him, Predator, without any shame, leaned up against Cadance and began to nuzzle the side of her neck. It wasn't a normal nuzzle, like one between friends or family, it was more like the kind that she would do for him, or vice versa, the nuzzle of a loving couple. Cadance was aware of Predator's nuzzle and tried not to let it bother her, but it was obvious to Shining Armor that it was, and he himself was getting a little ticked.
"Ahem! Cadance, do you mind if we step out for a minute, there's an important matter that needed our attention," said Shining Armor.
Cadance immediately caught onto her husband's distraction, "Oh darn, are they still having trouble with that silly tax law?! Ugh, alright, let's go hash it out before everypony starts rioting about the taxes."
Predator looked up at Cadance, "Ah, do you really have to go? I wanted see the Empire with you."
"I promise I'll give you the grand tour. But we are the Prince and Princess of the Crystal Empire, and duty calls."
Sighing deeply Predator nodded, "I understand, the joys of ruling do come with equal responsibilities. I will await your return."
With that said Cadance and Shining Armor rose up and left the room. The couple trotted down the hallway for about ten minutes before either one of them let out a heavy sigh of relief. Shining Armor slumped against the pillar closest to him, while Cadance just plopped herself on the floor.
"Thanks Shiny," said Cadance.
"No problem. Seriously though, what's her deal? She was nuzzling you like you two were dating or something," said Shining Armor.
"Cut her some slack, she's the Emotional Entity of Love itself, and with me being the Princess of Love, I guess she's taken a liking to me." Cadance let out a weak chuckle.
"Alright, but really, why is she living with us, not that I don't understand the reasoning, but…do you think it's safe, for anypony?"
Cadance got back on her hooves; she then moved towards the open window and stared out to her kingdom below. "I think I understand, a little, about why the Entity wanted me to look after her. When we were flying, I was surrounded by her violet light; normally I can feel the love of ponies nearby. But…when I was in that light, I felt the love of every pony, dragon, griffon, and animal within Equestria, and not just love like the one we share. But…other kinds…"
Shining Armor raised an eyebrow at that, "'Other kinds,' what's that supposed to mean?"
Cadance turned her head and looked at her husband, her cheeks tinted with red. "Please don't make me say it Shining, it's really embarrassing…!"
"I don't understand what can be so embarrassing that…Oh…Oh – OH!" Shining Armor finally got it and his cheeks, too, were tinted red. "You, uh, you felt those kind of things…?"
"I used to when I was filly, when I first got my cutie mark, I could feel all sorts of love, even the more intimate types…needless to say it took a while before I could fully control what I was feeling, and now it's little more than a feeling in the back of my head. But after being with Predator," Cadance shook her head. "Never mind, point is, I felt something chaotic inside her, she's open to many different forms of love that she doesn't know which to follow."
"And that's what you're going to do, help her sort it out," asked Shining Armor.
"I'm going to try, but, I could really use her help, at least so that I can make sure that I'm still grounded."
Shining Armor trotted up to his wife and nuzzled her cheek, comforting the pink alicorn, his silent way of saying that he would be there to help her through this. He two of them then stared into each other's eyes, their muzzles slowly gravitating towards the other, eyes closing as they prepared to kiss…
*RUMBLE*
"Did I just feel the ground shake," asked Shining Armor.
"It does whenever I'm around you," responded Cadance.
*RUMBLE*
"There it is again," Shining Armor drew back.
"Shining c'mon, don't tease me like that –"
*KA-CHEEEEEENG*
*RUMBLE*
*CRASH*
This time Cadance definitely felt that. Both the husband and wife galloped down to where they felt the strong surges coming from. It was only now that Cadance could feel the energy coming from the direction of the room they left Predator in. She feared the worst.
They turned down the next corridor and gasped at what they saw. The door had been completely blown away. Cadance and Shining Armor sprinted to the blown entrance and dared to peer inside the room. Rosy-violet crystals permeated the room, no longer were they the bright hues of blue. Some jetted from the floor, creating large pillars, with several other tiny shards protruding from it. The bed was gone, now switched in favor of, what appeared to be, a nest which was neatly carved out of the same crystal.
The Co-rulers of the Crystal Empire stood there slack jawed at the transformation the room had gone through. Predator had been standing in the center of the room; she seemed to be surveying her recent changes to her, yet-to-be-decided, living space. When the dark pink mare turned her head she spotted the couple and smiled gleefully at them.
"Cadance, Prince Shining Armor, I decided to make a few alterations to this room. If you don't mind I'd like to keep this one, the view of the Empire from here wonderful. So, what do you think of my changes!?"
The Royal Couple shook their heads to snap them out of their daze. It was Shining Armor that found his voice first.
"Eh, yeah, it's…it's certainly is different Miss."
"Please Prince Shining Armor, call me Predator!" The dark pink mare struck a proud pose.
Shining Armor leaned close to Cadance in order to whisper into her ear.
"How long did you say she'd be staying here…?"
Cadance blushed, embarrassed at Predator's actions. She then gave him a sheepish smile.
"Heh, heh, uh…indefinitely…"
and I shit my pants.
Use a spell checker. "Prolouge" is not a word.
3122260 Thanks, corrected it! I was in a bit of a rush when I posted it.
3122298 If you are referring to "The Winningverse" this is unrelated to that. Ion is the Emotional Entity of Willpower.
Thanks for comments!
3122346 Yes it may seem like a bit of an odd shipping, but I'm happy with it.
please tellme the other entities will show up. I somehow imagine greed hitting it off well with D.T. or maye that's fear? Anyways look forward to more stuff... please tell me no black lanterns wold be involved?
3122452 Other Entities will come in due time. As for the Black Lanterns..........
3126384 you sick fuck... guess Spike would learn of real zombies eventually. Fucking GENIUS!
@Michael_Ravencroft...
1. Being a long-time (or "old", I grew up with just TWO [Color] Lantern Corps and zero Entities...) Green Lantern Corps fan, I really like your CrossOver premise.
.
Some literary advice & critiques...
2. Keep the story centered on your protagonist(s). The great thing is that the Entities are broadly defined, so this gives you a lot of creative room to work with. But as with any good story, it is important to maintain focus on your protagonists, especially when you have so many of them (7).
3. DON'T bring in the various [Color] Lantern Corps. You have the myriad of MLP:FiM cast to work with, interacting with seven titan-powered CrossOver characters. Bringing in the other [Color] Lantern Corps would fatally dilute your story because readers' focus would be spread too thin (and that kills reader interest quick). And personally speaking, Hal Jordan and the other human Lanterns in Equestria would just ruin everything.
If you "have" introduce ring-slingers into Equestria, then I would suggest using MLP:FiM cast members (more towards the supporting &/or background pony cast (meaning do not use The Mane Six). But I would advise avoiding that too, if possible.
.
4. Cosmic Beings can be flustered/stymied by Mortal Concerns. While this falls more under Slice of Life, there are plenty of entertaining scenes can be written at how the Entities try to blend in and integrate to mortal pony life and society, as well as trying to maintain a modicum of a "secret identity." The Entities may "feed" (loosely speaking) off of their emotional portfolio, but now that they have taken corporeal (mortal) form, what kind of joys and quirks will they experience when they try eating food? What will sleeping be like? Bathing and grooming? (or preening for pegasus) What will it be like if the Entities find out their pony forms have un-intended side-effects that even they could not have predicted? (unicorn magic, pegasus weather control, earth pony nature-bond, etc.)
5. The characters you have given Lives to, do not take it away from them. Notice I said "lives" not "life." You have given the entities corporeal forms (pony or other MLP:FiM race) and a sentient sense of self-awareness, so it would be counter-productive if they wind up possessing an MLP character (or otherwise) and being regressed into their previous passive symbiotic/parasitic roles.
6. Hamburger vs. Steak. While they are naturally drawn to strong sources ("steak") of their particular emotional portfolio, The Entities can feed off of ambient emotions in the greater whole ("hamburger") to both survive and to recharge their energies. So while they do draw strength and recover more quickly from individually strong emotional sources, they do not require it to survive or (eventually) replenish themselves.
7. Prologue means One Chapter. While I have enjoyed your individual introductions, your use of multiple Prologues is improper literary format. A Prologue chapter should be short and deliberately vague &/or ambiguous to pique the reader's interest. I would advise simply removing the "Prologue" tags and number-label the chapters you have. If you want an Prologue example, it is given below.
~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~
8. I think "Prose" would have been a more fitting nickname than ". 'Lyte." for Proselyte. Yes, I know the pronounciation of Proselyte is different, but "Prose" would be ironically fitting given the linguistic nature of the Indigo Tribe's secret-language.
9. An important aspect to remember: the Green Light of Will is the "center" &/or "lynchpin" of the Emotional Spectrum, as written in the comics, and even evidenced by your cover image. The other six Lights not only become stronger and more synergized in its presence, but they also evolve and develop as a result. This is the (comics) explanation to why the darker-themed [Color] Lantern Corps have been able to evolve towards more positive (if not "good") developments. This is the (comics) explanation to why Red Lanterns could become anti-heroes, Larfleeze could be brought out to fight in times of need, and that even the power of Fear (Yellow) could be harnessed for (somewhat) heroic deeds.
This is not always beneficial to the Green Light of Will &/or Ion, however.
In that specific regard, only the Blue Light of Hope returns the synergy by greatly empowering (and sometimes overly powering) Will. So it will be interesting to see how you play out the meeting(s) &/or team-ups between Ion and Adara.
.
10. I look forward to seeing Predator meeting Rarity; the way you have her (Predator) written, I think it will be a very interesting (&/or entertaining) scene....
[Rarity]: You know what this means, darling...?
[Predator]: (enthusiathic tone) Yes, but I love to hear you say it...!
[Together]: To the spa! *Aloe & Vera appear*
That, or possibly Predator and Trixie, since both seem to have a taste for showmanship (or just showing off).
.
11. Example Prologue (for above comments)...
.
12. I look forward to reading more of your CrossOver fan-fiction .
Exhume is possibly not the word you are looking for friend. Exude maybe?
Predator is one of the most unpredictable of the entities so this ought to be interesting...
3127132 First off I greatly appreciate your lengthy comment, must means I'm doing something right.
Anyway I like some of your ideas about Predator meeting other ponies like Rarity and Trixie are good, I was trying to think of some embarrassingly random antics for her to get into, and those two, among some other pre-planed things, will be included, thank you.
Yes I do know Prologues are a single Chapter, but I needed to introduce the four main character Entities into the lives of the specific MLP cast members. Also it would be one lengthy chapter.
Fourth, the Entities seem to wield their own power. While Hope does empower Will, Adara has shone and other Entities have shone that they have great power. When Adara possessed Michele Morrison she was able to wield its power without the need of any other Emotional Light.
Let me clarify something to all who are reading this. This is about the Entities, at least the four for now, and their interactions and relationships with the ponies they are drawn to.
THERE WILL BE NO APPEARANCES BY ANY OF THE OTHER CORPS. MEMBERS FROM THE GL UNIVERSE (a.k.a RING-SLINGERS).
Thank you all for your comments, and I promise updates will come soon.
3140990...
You are correct, Blue Lanterns' rings can only use minimal functions on their own (solo). This is usually is limited to:
- 1. flight/interstellar-travel (self only)
- 2. protective shield-aura & life support (also self only)
- 3. sensory scans
- 4. communication
Besides some other minor functions, this meant no constructs, no energy blasts, no healing, no prophetic visions, or other major powers/functions. Only in the presence of the Green Light of Will do Blue Lantern rings unlock their full functions, and emerge as the most powerful Lanterns of the seven [Color] Lantern Corps.
You are also correct that Adara (or her host) and her Guardians (formerly Ganthet and Sayd) can use the full range/functions of the Blue Light of Hope without needing to synergize with the Green Light of Will, but only at a "standard" power-level of a Lantern ring-wielder. This holds true, for the most part, for the other Entities and their respective Guardians. However, the synergizing effect of power-boosting between Green & Blue also still holds as well, as it is a passive effect.
It is also a good call to not involve any ring-slingers, particularly the human Lanterns. One of the things that put me, a long-time GLCorps fan, off with the GL series in recent times was how everything became overly centered around the human Lanterns, particularly Hal Jordan (many fans derided that the GL comics may as well be re-titled "The Hal Jordan Show"), and all the other non-human Lanterns served to be disposable casualties (the dreaded "red shirts" to Hal Jordan's Captain Kirk).
~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~
You are welcome to use/adapt any creative ideas &/or suggestions I freely provide .
Of which, here are 10 ideas for you:
#1 - Ion &/or Proselyte meet the sea-ponies while in their natural forms; Ion in his cetacean (whale) form and Proselyte in his cephalopod (octopus) form. Comedic interaction ensues (and possibly a musical number... ), as well as adventurous actions under the seas as the water-themed Entities prove their worth to them. The end-result is that valuable allies (if not friends) are gained for use much later in the story.
#2 - Adara seeks out Ion; either for counsel, guidance, &/or assistance. Unfortunately, the synergizing effect between the Blue and Green Lights being in close-proximity to each other causes problems for both Entities trying to maintain a low profile; their synergy-boosted energies cannot be properly contained by their mortal pony forms, bleeding out across Ponyville. This causes various effects such as ponies having prophetic visions or moments of enlightened insight (blue), or perhaps kickstarting the wing-development of a certain struggling-to-fly pegasus filly (blue+green), or even a certain mint-green unicorn to form dextrous-fingered constructs (green) much to her meme'd delight, or other various dramatic &/or comedic effects...
#3 - The Predator is approached by an unlikely, but surprisingly earnest (as the twist), supplicant in becoming a member of the Star Sapphire Corps...Queen Chrysalis.
Or the reverse, Queen Chrysalis and the Changelings attempt to feed upon The Predator and her Violet Light, only to find they have bitten off far more than they can chew. Chrysalis thought she had found a potentially endless fountain for her hive to drink from, only to find to her horror that she has instead put the collective Changelings' face directly in front of a fire hose locked open on full-blast. The story-twist result is that Princess Cadence & Shining Armor find themselves racing to save a knees-begging desperate Chrysalis and the Changelings from the darker side of The Predator.
Or the inverse, The Predator discovers the Changelings, and finds a species in dire need of her Violet Light more than any other race she has encountered. Sharing her Violet Light with the Changelings gains The Predator adulation, gratitude, and an army (for use much later in the story).
.
#4 - Ion is unable to avoid or restrain himself from acting as a Green Lantern would in protectorship and heroism for those in need. This compounds the burdens of his "mundane" Equestrian life by having an additional secret identity to maintain (cosmic entity, "normal" earth pony, super hero), but also gives him a strong sense of humility in the value of having a "normal" mortal life.
#5 - The Ophidian attempts to exert control over (but not possess) Spike...and fails miserably (perhaps even comedically). Spike has girded himself emotionally and mentally against the influence of Greed since the events of Secret of My Excess. Other dragons, however...
#6 - The Butcher attempts to gain dominion over the dragons, seeing their raw destructive potential and symmetry in their breathing flame (or other breath weapons, if you go the D&D dragon-breath route). Unfortunately for The Butcher, this brings him into conflict with The Ophidian who has parallel (but obviously different) goals, but through Avarice. The clash between the two "factions" give cause for the benevolent Entities to become involved in a microcosm version of The War of Light.
#7 - Parallax finds a femme-fatale ally, a mutual attraction, and a deadly rival, in Nightmare Moon (who is an parasitic entity much like Parallax, according to the MLP:FiM comics).
#8 - Princess Luna (or perhaps even Princess Celestia) become smitten with Ion after seeing him in heroic action, compounded that they also see him as worthy paramour who understands immortal longevity.
#9 - The Entities each experiment with wielding the magicial nature of their chosen pony races, with various results, effects, mishaps, &/or consequences. This is compounded and complicated by the fact that the Entities and their Light are vulnerable to magic (according to DC canon).
.
#10 - As was mentioned before, the other Lights synergize and evolve when in the presence of the Green Light of Will, even if their Light is detrimental to the Green Light. Yellow Fear, Red Rage, Orange Avarice, these Lights may weaken, burn away, &/or drain the power of Green Will, but they still wind up evolving simply by being in Green Will's presence for extended periods.
However, the reverse holds true too.
It was hinted at, and briefly confirmed by Geoff Johns (not going to dig through the internet for the link/article/tweet) that Ion and the Green Light of Will had evolved as well from The (First) War of Light and The Blackest Night; in that Ion could now draw upon a second source of emotion to empower his Light, giving him a powerful Ace-in-the-Hole and kept him ahead of the other Entities/Lights. This emotion was still "Green" since it still functioned in overcoming Fear, Rage, Greed, and other negative emotions...
Ion could now draw upon Courage, in addition to Willpower.
Sadly, this storyline angle was cut off before it could take shape due to the DCnU reboot .
The link in the author's notes section is missing the last bracket required to make it clickable for Predator's prologue.
