It was a peaceful night in Ponyville, everypony were asleep in their houses, a few were awake, enjoy their Princess of the night, beautiful nigh sky, especially a teen stallion, around 18 years old, he has a light brown coat, his mane and tail were spiky black, his eyes were interesting thing, his left eye was a red wine color, while the right one was a ocean blue, he stood around 6 foot 2, he wasn't wearing a shirt so his upper body was expose, showing off lean muscle and a few scars, he wore a pair of grey baggy pants and a pair of black fingerless gloves.

This was Rebel Blade, a citizen of Ponyville and  a retired Assassin, from the first and last Order, after they won the war from the Templar with the help of the Princess, they land was at peace once more and all the Assassins retired, a few die others left to travel, but Rebel when to Ponyville, his Hometown.

His ears gave a light twitch, making him turn slightly towards the horizon, his eyes flicker for a minute switching both eyes to the color gold with a slit in the eye, then back to their original color, Rebel narrow his eyes and quickly got back inside his house.

Coming near Rebel's house was a group of guards that wore an armor similar to the Royal guard, except this had a cross on the plate and with them was a stallion with a business suit on, an arrogant smirk on his face, he slowly walks forwards, while his guards, place dynamites around the house, not knowing their giving Rebel more time, the stallion then yell "come on out Assassin, we know your in their, with not come out quietly and join your brethren in Tartarus" he was only greeted with silence, the stallion gave a annoying sigh and nodded towards his guards to blow the house up.

The guards gave a bloodthirsty smile and ignite the fuses, seconds pass till the explosion came, staring from the bottom to the top, but it reaches the top, a lone figure jump through the bedroom window, breaking in the processes, everything was in slow motion, the stallions eyes slowly widen, while trying to get away, but the figure flew a bit forward and landed on top of the business suit stallion, the last thing the stallion saw was the red eye of his killer and a trench knife to his throat, blood gushing out of his throat.

The figure wore a grey trench coat with the left sleeve rip off showing a white long sleeve, on his right sleeve he wore a few pads, a hood cover his face, on his back he had a backpack with a katana strap to it, his right hand he was holding a now bloody trench knife (outfit base off the story main pic).

The guards saw this and pull out their swords, charging towards the hooded figure, the figure just sigh, one guard was near and went for a stab, but the hooded stallion side step the stab and quickly use his trench knife to slit the guards throat, blood gushing out and spraying on the hooded stallion, another went for a downward slash, but the stallion flick his left wrist and a blade came out blocking the swing, another guard came from his right side for a horizontal slash, but the stallion block it with his trench knife, the stallion gave the guard a kick to his knee, making said guard fall in pain, the hooded stallion then turn the other and use his Hidden Blade and stab the other guard in the stomach a few time, blood seeping out the armor easily and one in the throat, lifting the dying guard into the air and slam him to the ground, blood coating the ground where the guard, now dead lay.

The hooded stallion when the kneel guard and slash at him in the knees with his trench knife, making him scream in pain and paralyze him in place the last two guards charge up magic through their horn, the stallion looks at them and from his coat pulls out a Flintlock Pistol, aims at the guard to the left in his right shoulder, making the guard to twist to his fellow guard and 'accidentally' shot him, killing the guard into blood and gore, the other guard grab his bleeding shoulder and turns to face the hooded assassin, only to get his throat slit, the last thing he saw was the hooded stallion red eye.

The last guard that was in the ground saw this and started to crawl away, try was more like it, the hooded stallion walk slowly towards the crawling guard while reloading his Flintlock Pistol, the guard saw this and try to move even faster, but couldn't, once the hooded stallion was near, he stomp on the guards leg, getting a pain yelp, the stallion use the guards leg to hold him in place, once he finish reloading his gun, he aim at the guard "any last words" ask the stallion, the guards just whimper in pain and fear "può la morte avere pietà della tua anima e possa tu marcire in tartarus (may death have mercy on your soul and may you rot in tartarus)" said the stallion in his ancestor tongue, pulling the trigger, a loud 'BOOM'  was heard and scared the birds in the area, the hooded stallion looks a the night sky.

A grunt was heard, the stallion looks towards the business stallion was still alive, so he walks towards the now alive stallion and grabs him by neck lifting him up "who sent you" spat out the hooded stallion, he was only answer with a dry chuckle "you should know Assassin" said the business stallion "why" "simple for control, for peace, but your little Order was in the way, so he hunting each one of you" was the business stallion reply, the hand around his neck tighten "I will stop you and the Templars" before the stallion could reply, the hooded stallion snap his neck, killing quickly and letting the body fall to the now bloody ground.

A light flicker around the burning house and lights the hooded stallions face to reveal Rebel, his right eye close, just showing his red wine eye "looks like am out of retirement" was the only thing he said, walking towards Ponyville to get answers, behind him if looks closely, one could see that on the ground was a strange symbol.
