It was an average day in Ponyville the citizens where doing what they do every day. Shopping, walking, and chatting with each other. It was also a normal day for Fluttershy she just got done feeding her animal and was relaxing on her couch.” Thank Celestia I have some peace and quiet” she thought.That however was going to change out of the blue she heard an animals roars in the distance. The noise made her jump.”Oh my that animal must be in pain I have to go help it”.
As she ran to the door she stopped in her tracks.“It is dangerous to go into the everfree alone oh I know I’ll go get the girls” she said out loud. She then ran out the door to Ponyville. As she made it into town she decided to go to Twilight’s house first. When she got there she knocked on the door and waited.

Then Twilight came and opened the door. ”oh Fluttershy what brings you hear “.

Twilight said “ Well I…I heard an animals roar coming from the everfree and I wondered can you and the girls come with me to see if it is ok”.

“Why sure Fluttershy what are friends for lets go round them up”.

Two minutes later

After a few minutes Fluttershy and Twilight rounded up the rest of the Mane Six and they were talking about why they where there. “Darling may I please ask why you brought us here”. Said Rarity

“Yeah I was in the middle of a good nap and the cloud felt like softest thing in Equestria” Rainbow Dash complained, but stopped when Twilight put her hoof up.

“I know you may be cranky Rainbow but Fluttershy has been hearing some weird roars coming from the everfree forest”. The other girls where standing there with puzzling looks on their faces.

“ Uhhh sugar cube doesn’t that happen all the time” Applejack said " I mean animal roars happen every day"

“Well…Applejack not these roars they sounded like the animal was in pain” Fluttershy said.

“Maybe when we save the animal we can throw it a party” yelled Pinkie Pie. She was clearly shakeing with joy for and from another party.

“Uhhh Pinkie I don’t think that is a good idea the animal could be under attack and what is attacking it could still be there”. Said Twilight. She really didn't know why she wanted to throw a Save an animal party. She threw a party very early in the morning today.

“Ok maybe another time and then we can throw a saved an animal party” Pinkie said with a really big smile on her face. She then started bouncing around the room. She was also secretly writing plans for the party.

“Well uhhh that was weird ok back to the task at hoof let’s go help that animal “said Twilight. They started on their way not knowing what they will face.

The Dark One or what he liked being called Infa was not having a good day. He went into the forest the go hunt for some game to help feed his village but ran into a problem. After a few hours he was attacked by a weird animal. He saw it had a lion body and head, a scorpion tail, and bat wings. It roared as it charged him.

Infa easily dodged and brought out his trusty blade. “ Bring it on freak” he yelled at it. The manticorn charged as if it heard him and was bent on killing him. Infa dodged to the left and slashed the mantiacorn on the side of its face and stabbed it in its front right leg. The manticorn roared in pain as it brought it paw down trying to crush him but looked down and didn’t see him anywhere.

It started to look around for him but didn’t think to look up. “ Man this thing is stupid even a rock would know to look up” Infa Snickered at the manticorn for being so stupid. Infa smirked as he dropped from the trees above and stab the manticorn in the back. The manticorn howled in pain and was shaking to throw the pest off. Snickering at the manticorn Infa brought his hand onto the back of the neck of the manticorn.

Using his magic and sent hundreds of volts of electricity through the manticorn skull. The manticorn screamed and howled in pain as it felt the volts coursing through its body. As the manticorn started to die with what was left of its strength it rolled over to try and crush Infa. Infa knew what it was doing and tried to jump away but his blade was stuck in the manticorn's back. When he finally pulled the blade out the manticorn’s body fell.

He fell on the ground hard and the corpse crushed his leg. Infa felt all of his bones in his leg being crushed.
Struggling to push the manticorn off of him he managed to roll it off of him and tried standing up but fell back down. He pulled himself up and used his blade as a cane. He started to limp back to the village when he heard howling.

He looked around and saw glowing eyes staring at him. Soon timber wolfs stated to come out and circle him. “Ohh crap this is not going to end well” Infa thought.
Infa got his blade ready and got into a fighting stance. “Well I never thought this is how I would go out eaten by timber wolfs”. Then a timber wolf lunged at him trying to knock him to the ground. Infa kicked with his good leg and knocked it on the ground and chopped its head off. Tree sap started to flow from the body.

Then a timber wolf lunged from behind knocking him down. As he hit the ground his blade slid away from him and the wolf’s back legs landed on his broken leg. Yelling out in pain he raised his arm to block the wolf from biting his neck. The timber wolf latched on to his arm and was trying to rip it off. Being a timber wolf it didn’t take into account that Infa had two arms. While it was biting his arm it felt something on the back of its neck.

The wolf struggled to free its self but felt its neck being turned. It let out one more yelp before having its neck snapped. Infa then threw the body off of him. “Time to end this before this gets out of hand”. His hand started to glow red.

Soon his entire hand was on fire. The timber wolfs still where waiting for a moment to strike but where weary of the flames. The Infa shot out a beam of flames lighting 12 of the wolfs on fire. Those wolf howled in pain and where running in every direction burning. Smiling that this was over he went to get hi blade and start on his way back to the village to get his leg fixed up.

Out of the corner of his eye he saw 6 colorful ponies. He also saw that they had horrified looks on their faces. Saying the first thing in his mind “Aww crap”.
