The Way of the Demon

Shadowsmiles was surprised to see the lavender unicorn lunge at her and tackle her. Shadowsmiles was shocked that the pony would actually make the decision of trying to fight her, but couldn't do anything, because it all happened so quickly.

Now, the little purple unicorn was a great deal smaller than Shadowsmiles, but her magic was powerful. Not as powerful as Shadowsmiles' vectors, though.

Shadowsmiles was forced onto the ground and kept there by a magic restraint around her chest, belly, and hooves. "What do you want?" She said calmly.

Twilight stared at her, puzzled. She would have thought this mare would be begging for mercy, struggling to get out and screaming and crying, but she was simply staring up her?

"W-Well, as you should know, murder is NOT tolerated lightly in Equestria." Twilight tried to speak without fear. Though Shadowsmiles only nodded and said, "And?"

Twilight's jaw dropped. Could this pony really be so ignorant to the law? Was it even possible? To be so oblivious to what your penalties would be? "A-And you.. you are going to go to P-Princess Celes..tia.. and face the charges of death, even!" Twilight stuttered angrily.

"That should intrigue me, how? I do not fear the Princesses." Shadowsmiles spoke with a remarkably steady voice.

"YOU SHOULD FEAR THE PRINCESSES!" Twilight yelled suddenly, releasing the magic restraint by accident. Shadowsmiles wasted no time pinning her down. After all, Shadowsmiles was a great deal bigger than Twilight, and she had her vectors. "Do not test my patience, you little unicorn." She said with a rather blank expression. It was as if she had no emotion whatsoever. Twilight panicked and used her teleportation spell to get at least four feet away from her. "Who did you kill?" Twilight gasped with fear. Shadowsmiles shrugged. "It was a bear or something, I dunno." Twilight screamed, "HOW CAN YOU NOT KNOW WHAT YOU KILLED?!"

Shadowsmiles stared at her blankly. There was an eerily long silence between them, other than Twilight's raspy breathing and gasping. Shadowsmiles had such an empty emotion that it was creepier than the Everfree forest, practically. Twilight took a step back, then another, then another.

"Don't hurt me," Twilight said, wishing she could do something to save herself from what this pony might do.
