Nero exited the carriage and watch the pegasi guards take off and fade from sight. "So i'm back in.....? Ponyville yah that's it ". Nero wondered the small town getting scared and rear dirty looks from the residence, and the half human is not phased or surprised because of the whopping he gave the guard captain. " Now were're do i suppose i can find were that guy was talking about?" Nero wondered Ponyville until he bumped into Twilight and here friends ' OH HAY! Nero Celestia told me that you left early so what are you doing here?" asked the librarian.

"Just wondering and what not.....soo where is Pink lightning?"

"Uhhh.......hua that's funny i have no idea, she was with use when we go off the train?" said Twilight.

"Not for Pinkie Pie" said Rainbow Dash chuckling.

Suddenly the pink mare appeared out of thin air. " Time for a A class PARTY!!!!!". Everyone just looked at the pink mare like she just exploded. Pinkie Pie just looked back with a confused expression on her face then she finally sad. " get over it, you are acting like this is new", and she bounced off laughing and snorting then she zipped back and said " On to Sugarcub Corner for a PARTY!!!". On the way to the bakery they past a construction sight were the new home will be built for Pony named Filthy Rich twilight said walking past it. The group stops because Applejack spotted her sister Applebloom and the rest of the CMC's with Diamond Tiara and Silverspoon " This my dad's new house who gave you permeation to be here ?" said Diamond Tiara with anger and snobbishness.

"YEAH !! " said her lacy Silverspoon.

" But we wonted to get our cutie marks in construction" said Scootaloo ".

"Boo..WHO ! so what now get off my daddy's property NOW !".

While the fillies the construction ponies are lifting a large beam " keep it steady Brawn !". The pony Foreman of the project caught the little fillies telling them all to leave and Pinkie said " i got a twitchy tail !" they group were looking at the pink party pony when they heard " look out below the beam is slipping!!!"

"Applebloom,Sweetie Bell,Scootaloo,Diamond Tiara,and Silverspoon Get the HAY out'ta there y'all !!" screamed the farm pony.

"AHHHHH!!!!!!, SWEETIE !!!!"shouted the fashionista. Everything slowed down Nero new he only had a few valuable minutes before the beam would fall, but he hesitated thinking about what that figure said " just let it go, let it happen" said a disembodied voice. "Maybe i..i........" then he was hit with the flashback of the people he let down " I...I.....MUST save them !". " poor choice" said the voice, In a flash he took off and was about to try and scoop the fillies but his time was up the beam started to fall. with a split second thought he got under the beam and balanced his stance and raised his arms. A lot of things were running threw Nero's mind anger,fear,what the guy said to him,but the strongest thing was the need to protect the fillies under him screaming their little heads off. Right before the beam hit Nero mumbled "this......this is gonna hurt like hell".

The beam hit his hands with the force of a frat train his feet dug small holes into the ground, and meta human let out a grunt of pain. Nero shouts to the fillies to move. When they moved he threw the beam down and noticed the beam was bent a little he took a deep sigh " we that could have went ether way". when he looked up he seen just about almost the whole town looking for about a minute then erupted into cheers,whistles,and hollering. Nero looked around in bewilderment, he took on step and fell to his knees trimbaling and wheezing. He didn't know how much of a strain that beam put on his body the main six Galloped to his side as Nero started to stand "are you alright" said the librarian " yeah i'm fine" replied Nero.

" That...was..so....awesome !!, you make Big Mac look like a wimp" said Rainbow. The farmer was about to thank and praise Nero before Rainbows some what insult and Applejack just glared at the speedster. After the CMC's got chewed out buy their elders the went straight to Sugarcub Corner hey had a welcome party for Nero witch he didn't join. He was in a chair viewing the party after saving the fillies the first ten minutes were just the main six and him until ponies started flooding in to thank, meet, and greet the hero. With a deep sigh Nero reflected on the day when the crusaders approached him " thank you mister" said the CMC's in unison " no problem little one" he said with a half smile as he left. "He's so heroic" said Sweetie Bell. "Sweetie and Mister Hero siting in a tree" said the other to CMC's " shut up guys" said the fashionista's young sibling with a bigger bush. Nero was outside looking at the stars in the evening sky when Diamond Tiara peeked out the party " mister......"

" Nero " he sail arching a eyebrow.

" mister Nero thank...y..you f..for saving me your really cool" said the crush struck filly, and she darted back inside with a blush before he could speak, as Fluttershy was leaving " by girls and nice party Pinkie.......OH Nero you startled me.........what are you doing...if you don't mind me asking ?" asked the shy Pegasus. " Well i was thinking and i don't have a place to stay....so i guess ill be sleeping in a tree or something i guess". Nero could barely finish what he said before he felt like pulled. " I will not have one of my friends sleeping outside your coming with me........i...if y..you want that is" she said with a little bush at her rear outbursts. Their walk to the cottage was pretty quite when they entered Shy's abode the human just crashed on the floor with a thud like a great tree, it scared her for a second thanking he was hurt but he just pasts out Shy went into a closet a pulled out a blanket and covered her half human,half beast friend " sweet dreams Nero" she said as she headed to bed.

Nero was sleeping peace fully until that same figure reappeared " so you denied my offer for power and vengeance what a shame you could have had it all " said the shadowy figure. Nero looked at him with curiosity and annoyance " i don't need your fancy power ups i strong enough to help and save m..my...MY FRIENDS ".

"OOOO !!! you finally let them in a little hu ?" with a vary fang filled grin "they will pay for this !". Nero was taken back by this developmental "who..no what are you?" said the bewildered human "you didn't what to help me at all did you!".

"Well....no why would i help you, if you chose yourself over the fillies i would have showed me that you were ripe for indoctrination, you needed to willingly except the power for it to work but..you always try to be the torchered soul and push people or....ponies away, but you and i know that they do try push the friendship card so you can have them close at the same time far away. Ether submit to me and do my biding or...THEY...ALL...DIE!!!".

Nero shouted at the top of his lungs "FUCK YOU MOTHER FUCKER!!!!, I will never work for you".

"Have it you way, but you eventually will "WHEN...I....BREAK....YOU!!".

"Why do you want me so bad?".

The shadow starts laughing maniacally "that's for me to know and you to find out ". Soon after the shadow left Nero's dream Luna arrived to assist and banish Nero's nightmare.
