Time to get serious. Then party

I wake up to shouting out side of my 'box'.

"Princess Luna the prisoner has been asleep for hours. I think it needs its rest."

"You dare to stop us from seeing a prisoner in our own dungeons?!" God damn, why not just throw a grenade in here and tell me.

"Would you shut the hell up! I'm trying to sleep in here." With out looking I hear the door open.

"Face us monster so that we may see way young Sparkle has thrown you in here." I turn around to see another pony but this one was different. She was a dark shade of blue in her coat. Her mane was ethereal and she had both wings and a horn. During the short time I was with Lyra I saw all different types of ponies. I asked Lyra about it.

"Oh you see there are three types of ponies. You have the earth pony." Which she said while pointing to what looked like a human but had a orange coat and was sporting a stetson. she then pointed to a grey woman who was cross eyed and had wings on her back.

"You also have pegasus." Then she pointed to herself.

"Then last you have unicorns."


After remembering what Lyra told me I look to the new on in front of me.

"So what are you? Are you some kind of combination of unicorn and pegasus?"

"No we are an alicorn." Why does she keep saying we, there's no one else in here. I remember the little chat I had with Mortem. 'I need to get to the north. Lets she if she can give me any info. But not  before I charge up some magic for a long distance teleopor.'

"Ok before we begin I will ask you this is any mines up north from here?"

"Yes but way would you ask that?" Well lets see if my silver tongue improved.

"Well you see I am not a liberty to tell you because that would put me at a disadvantage and give you new power in which you can not control."

"Welp you dare say that we are weak! I shall have your head for this!" Man she looked furious. 'I guess I could teach her a lesson I have a little left over magic from charging the spell.'

"Oh I dare and do you want to know some thing Princess. I control the power in which you will never gain understanding in because you are weak of spirit!" I then force her against the wall with her own shadow. I slowly walk over to her taking my time while the guard is trying to get in.

"You can never control this power. The only reason I can control this is because I saw my entire family tore limb from limb and had their blood drawn like water. I sat there and watched knowing I could not do anything for them except hide while demons ripped them apart." I was boiling with rage from the memory. Looking into her eyes I saw them tearing up.

"We are sorry we did not know." She was on the verge of tears.

"I don't need your pity I lost all of my sanity that night. Now I watch from the shadows helping those who need it. I trained for the past 17 years just to learn how to control the burning power inside of my, so DO. Not. Give me your god damned pity." Ok I need to leave before I do something I'll regret. I released the shadows on her watching her fall to the ground crying.

"I am sorry. That memory blinds me with rage. I must go now I need to fin some thing." I teleoported having no idea where I would end up in the north. I look around for anything and far off I see lights from a city. 'Why the hell a city would be out here is just un-fucking believable.'


I arrived at a shield shortly after teleoporting. I see that the shield is just for keeping the weather out side, so I step through the barrier. After I cross the barrier I come in contact with a crystal. I look around the crystal to see a entire city made out of fucking crystal! I sneak into the city, and get as close to the main building as possible. I was about to cross when I remembered in Ponyville, so I use the shadows to remake my appearance into a pony.

I look down and see that my body is covered in black clothes hiding all my skin. I start across the street and end up under the castle. What death said about the mine sorta sparked something in me, like I could tell exactly where the power death was describing. It felt like I was right above it. I look down and charge my magic to my hands, then I slowly start to lean down. I put my hands on the ground and almost instantly the feeling I had exploded telling me I was right above it. I charged up my magic a second time letting it seep through the cracks in the stone.

Not long after my magic finds a cavern bigger the a aircraft hanger about 100 feet below me. I charged up a spell to drag me to the cavern through the shadow world. I end up 200 feet in the air.

"AAAAHHHHHHHHH!" Yep such a manly scream. as I was falling I could see that the walls were made up of crystals, hell everything in here was made of crystals. When I reached the 40 foot range I used my magic to start slowing me down, so instead of hitting the for going 100 mph I only hit it at 20. The impact left a small crater in the crystal but still hurt like hell. 'Thank you training, you saved my ass yet again.' I crawl up to the edge of the crater looking to see if the door was in here. After about an hour of looking I felt that surge of power again from the far side of thr room.

I walk over to the source and sure enough there it is, it even has Mortem's symbol. I reach out to push it and the closer I get the brighter the symbol starts to glow. I push the door far enough where I can slip through. After I slip through I look around to find nothing but a walk way leading to the middle of the room to a dais. On the dais was a gauntlet made of some type of black metal and it had a small dark crimson orb on the top of the hand. I walk over to It waiting for something to happen because you don't just leave an artifact from death himself out in the open.

I soon stand on the dais looking at the artifact I reach out for it, but then a flash comes from behind me. I spin around to see a kid about my age with a sword on his shoulder wearing a cocky grin n on his face. He also had black armor with the symbol of the shadow knights on it.

"So you the guy I've been sent to kill. You don't look like much to me." Before he can do anything else I slip the gauntlet onto my right arm. As soon as my finger tips touched the end there was a flaming hot pain going up my arm. It was so bad I fell to one knee.

"Tsk Tsk. You shouldn't have done that because now you can't fight me while the gauntlet chooses whether or not to to accept you." After looking over me again making sure I wouldn't try anything he rushed me. I took all I had just to dodge him, let alone fight him. I begged for the gauntlet to hurry up, and almost as soon as the new guy was upon me there was a explosion shaking me to my very core. I could feel changes being made to me as well as power flooding through me.

"What? NO! They said the gauntlet wanted me so why did the worthless thing chose you?" He yelled at me. I get up to look at him.

"Because did death himself say you could have it. No? Then you do not deserve it!" I grab my sword with my new gauntlet and draw it to watch as it starts to change and grow bigger. The handle starts to turn silver like my rosario and shapes to more of a horned type of hand guard. the Blade grows another edge and becomes a little thicker. I look at my new blade than back at the shadow knight.

"You sir, picked the wrong guy to mess with."
