Do you think I am to be ignored?!

The demon sneered, lurching forward to practically push up against the other side of the mirror. Rarity’s jaw and mind quivered in fear and guilt due to literally seeing the Element’s darker echo.

“You were destroyed!”

Nightmare’s eyebrow twitched and her voice dropped several tones while raising in maleficent fury.
“Do I look destroyed to you?! I am part of you! I’ve been part of you since you accepted me and I shaped myself to this!... You are me, and I am you. I exist in this form because you desired yourself to be. We forged this body, you and I, molded by mutual desires. A favor, I intend to remind you of as I return it. After all, do you really think everypony has forgiven you if I can still exist?…”

Nightmare hissed as the mists around Rarity swirled. A black, tar-like pitch began to gush out of the mirror’s base, race across the floor, and climb its way up Rarity’s hooves even as she struggled and screamed to free herself.

Out of the dream, the poor mare began to fidget and cry in her sleep as the Pony of Shadows watched on, the black from the latter’s horn beginning to seep onto Rarity’s.

Back in the night terror, the liquid shade had begun to stretch across Rarity’s throat in a vein-like pattern.

“We need notice. Fear is always noticeable, and everypony fears a Nightmare-”

But new sounds soon joined the dreamscape, echoing in with a tonal distortion from the transition of the real world to the mental one.
“Mis-Mis-Miss Rarity-ty-ty?”
-Scootaloo.-
“Ra-a-a-a-arity ma’am, are you okay-ay-ay-ay?”
-Apple Bloom.-
“Sis-s-s-s-s-s-s-s?”
-Sweetie...-

Rarity’s eyes snapped back open just as the tendrils of blackness started to creep up to them. She emit a spaced out stare for a moment before looking upon Nightmare with the realization of salvation stretched across her face.
“This is just a nightmare… Fear, you need me to be afraid of you so you can return. So you can run wild.”

She whispered in disbelief both to herself and to her attacker. Nightmare recoiled a bit, cocking her head back with a confused sneer. The tar-like strands of dark magic began to recede from Rarity’s form.

“What?!”

“Th-That’s why you plagued me with those awful nightmares with a kaiju, because I was afraid of them then. You need to get me to give into despair so you can take over…”

“No… No! You are a fool!”

Rarity wasn’t having any of the demon’s hissing. She broke free of her restraints and stomped her hoof, throwing off another shower of blackness with her action as she took a defiant step towards the mirror.
“Well I've got something to tell you, you plod! I met kaiju! I am friends with two kaiju. I taught a kaiju a full etiquette class to get him to understand a hoof kiss! I am not afraid of kaiju. Sure there's some out there that mean us harm, but with the ones we've got helping us their days are numbered-”

She roared, stomping closer to the mirror and literally staring down her darker side.

“And yours already expired... You can be here all you like! You’re all alone! My friends have forgiven me, Equestria has forgiven me just like both forgave Princess Luna! I am not guilty and I am not afraid of you. … You hear me?...”
She got right up to the mirror with a sneer on her face. Right now it almost looked like Nightmare was the smaller of the two as the Element of Generosity loomed over it. Rarity snorted for breath, grumbling in a low tone.
“Whatever corner of my mind you represent, manifest from whatever fear I had, I am NOT afraid of you.”
