A Redguards Redemption

Twilight and Spike returned to the library with there friends excluding Rarity and Fluttershy. Rarity needed to finish an order of dresses and Fluttershy needed to care for the animals, leaving Applejack, Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash to see Twilights latest project. As they entered the library, the girls looked at the strange writing on the floor and the candles light up in a circle.

"*GASP!* Twilight you've been drawing on the floor? Can I draw on the floor too? What about the walls? Can I use crayons? What about chalk? Do you have pink chalk? Maybe we can-" Rainbow shoved her hoof into Pinkies mouth.

"Pinkie relax." Rainbow Dash said before removing her hoof from Pinkies mouth. "But seriously, why are you drawing on the floor Twi?" Rainbow said.

"Ugh there not drawings, they're runes of a sort. Remember the book I found  in the Everfree Forest?" Twilight said. "Well the book showed a way of summoning other worldly creatures. I believe if we befriend this creature, we can lear-"

"Twi," Applejack interrupted. "While it all sounds good and fun, how do we y'all know this creature is nice and not some sort of monster?" Applejack said.

Twilight poundered on Applejack's question. She hasn't considered what this creature is capable of or if it's even a sentient being. Pinkie took this time to speak up.

"What if we throw them a party? Maybe it'll like parties and - OHHH! Maybe it eats cupcakes and-mmmmff" Dash's hoof mysteriously found its way back to Pinkies mouth.

"C'mon AJ, even if it's a monster, we can kick its flank to next week. What's the worst that can happen? We don't need the Elements of Harmony to be awesome." Dash said with both confident and arrogance.

Twilight smiled at Dash's little speech. "Your right Dash, as long as we have each other there's no challenge we can't overcome." Twilight finished.

Applejack sighed but couldn't help but smile. "Alright, I guess it's safe if were around, so d'cha need any help Twi?"

"No not at all, I just want you girls to be here to watch my first summon spell. Thank you for showing up. But first I just need to over the spell a few more times." Twilight said wasting no time checking for any form of errors.

"This is gonna be while." Spike muttered under his breath.

*******************

Dromone fell to the ground as the chains were undone. His wrist and showed marks were the chains held him. He rubbed his sore wrist to try and ease the pain and eyed his arch enemy, Dohlyekem.

"What does Molag Bal want with me?" He said, carefully observing his rival.

"That's none of your concern mortal. All you need to know is he requires your presence." Dohlyekem answered. The two being have been at each others throats ever since Dromone was captured. He has been through many things no ordinary can could endure, but Dromone was no ordinary man; he is a vampire, imprison in Coldharbor by the very Daedric prince he swore he would have vengeance on. Dromone never stopped fighting after his capture. He would fight back whenever the opportunity arises and sometimes he would successfully kill a few daedras before he gets captured again. Dohlyekem would always hunt down the rouge vampire when he escapes. While Dromone see this as survival, Dohlyekem would see this as a little game.

Despite Dromone's stubbornness, Molag Bal saw potential in him that very few mortals possess throughout the centuries. Hoping he could 'convince' a mortal with such prowerss, Molag Bal declared him champion among his realm even if Dromone despised it. Dromone would be whipped, gutted, burned and even be skinned should he disobey Molag Bal.

He wished he'd endured it all, but even he has a breaking point.

"(Sigh) Very well, no time like the present I guess." Dromone said.
