"Damn that Shadow Blade!" Twilight shouted in her bedroom. "Why would anypony do this.. Make a spell that would just release evil like that this makes no sense whatsoever."

The room was in disarray and nopony other than herself there well that is except Spike in a full plate armor and a helmet.

"Twi, what happen? And why are you so upset with Shadow Blade?" The little dragon asked with a step back.

"Shadow is that pony from this story." Twilight flowed an old book to Spike. "This is the real him."

oOo<<<<<<<

Warrior's of Legion

This is the tell of one who slayed the great Shadow of evil that tried to take over the world. It had only one target it was our king. The king and the kingdom know not of the trouble of the shadow but only the clans of this time did they tried and keep the rest of the kingdom and the king from this there was three clans. The Shadow Clan, The Cloud Clan, and The Light Clan. Each clan worked as one but had had some different way of how to take the Shadow out. The Shadow Clan was the only clan to find the way, but at a great cost. The Shadow had to be in the shadow of the Leader of the clan and sealed within a summoning spell. The Cloud Clan thought the prices to great but helped the Shadow Clan....... The Light Clan was to keep the peace in the kingdom and keep all ponies from the fight until it was over or needed to step in..... With the battle going on the few ponies that was not in the kingdom was coming back from a long trek. They watch as the clans fought the shadow some write of the battle and drew the battle. The Shadow had came to just a tree as Shadow Blade Leader of the Shadow Clan pulled it into his shadow. Then Four unicorns came and sealed him and the shadow into a piece of paper. The clans welp for the Leader of the Shadow Clan, but nun as much as the Cloud Clan Leader. She was to wed the fallen Leader to form a greater tie.......

oOo<<<<<<

"So why is this ba.... Wait did the Shadow get out too!?"

"Spike this is just a story. The kingdom of this book was a fairytale for foals. But it seems to have really happened." Twilight looked to the ground. "The only truth was there was a great battle and the Leader die. He fall to a sword and peace was restored over the land. But you need to read the last page."
As Spike read the last page. 'This is a small part of the truth of the past few days not all name are here. To my love Shadow Blade.' "Is this his betrothed writing this?"

"I believe so Spike her name is Cloud Skipper ring a bell?" Twilight pulls out a letter from the one she knows. "I talked to her the other day after talking to Shadow she got her name for her ancestor sister. She was also sealed in a paper spell to be with her lover."

Spike jaw hits the floor. "So you have her's too and can unseal it?"

"No, Spike thinks about it they where both sealed for so long one is hard to keep up with now you want two of them?" Twilight rubs her head with a hoof. "Call all the girls here I need to talk to them."

------------ At Sweet Apple Acres ------------

The Cutie Mack Crusaders were in their clubhouse think of new ways to get their cutie macks. Shadow was outside in the shade of the tree laying down keeping an eye on the three as they played.

"I've done told ya that I don't know if'in this would work." Apple Bloom said

"Come on A B you said you would at least try it before." Scootaloo spat.

"I don't know. What if Shadow doesn't help or says no?" Sweetie Bell asked.

"Well we wouldn't know until we ask right?" Scootaloo poked her head out the window to see Shadow looking up at her. "Hey, Shadow mind helping us out with some things?"

Shadow smiled as he rose to his hooves. "What is it I can help you little ones with?"

"Well we was wanting to see if you could teach us some of those ninja tricks you know to see if that's our special talent." Scootaloo rested a hoof to her mane. "If that's okay with you that is."

"Okay, but you have to do what I tell you to do and it will take time just to do one of the tricks I'll show you to get it right. I didn't even get it right the first time. Come down and I'll teach you all one and one only."

"O'kay"
"Alright"

"Wait Is this going to be save?" Sweetie Bell asked.

"It will be I'll just teach you the Shadow Walk." Shadow looked at Scootaloo with a wide smile. "I did Beat Rainbow Dash with it." The three fillies looked at him in a gasp and jaw drops. "And don't think only unicorns can use it. All the clans could, but it was called something different for them. Shadow Walk is all speed for earth ponies and pegasi, but it takes 20% of magic and speed for unicorns do use it."

Shadow walked over to one of the apple trees shadows. "Okay now that I'm in the shadow of this tree I want one of you to try and tag me. If you can I'll buy lunch for all of you." He said with a smile.

Apple Bloom was first to try but didn't even see him move to another shadow. "Not all that easy is it little one?"

"What the hay? How dja just do that? Y'all was just right here?" Apple Bloom waved her hoof around where he was.

"Would you like me to slow down so you can see it better? I'll slow down about half speed so you can see how I did it." Shadow dipped down and was overcome by the shadow and his horn lite up, and was gone. "Over here girls." They all looked to the left and seen that he was standing next to them. "I use the shadows on the ground and go into them then run through them, after that I jump out of another shadow."

"So think you can do it? I'll do some one on one training with all of you so you can get it. It did take me a week of training to get it right, but longer to to do it faster then my master."

"So its something that takes a lot of time and focus to do huu." Said a tomboy voces for up in the tree. "I think these girls will not be able to get it that fast."

"Well I think I hear something but could it be a pegasus that want her flank kick in a race?" Shadow said playfully. "I'm just kidding before you get upset Rainbow Dash. Would you like to show the little ones how to do it?"

Dash came down from where she was napping. " You did say that if one of them tagged you you would buy them lunch right mind if I try for them?"

"Not at all but do you want me to buy your lunch too?"

"You got it." Dash took up a stands that meat she was ready to go.

"Ok then you do know what I said about how the Shadow Walk works so let see if you can do it." Shadow looked at Dash ready to get away before she could tag him. "Girls countdown from 10 and we'll start and keep an eye on how we move. This will help a lot to teach you how to really move.''

The girls counted down and on go Dash flew as fast as she could but Shadow was gone the scent she got to him. "Come on Dash you can move faster than that, or are you holding back as not to hurt me. I've taken a lot more then what you can do that hurt a lot more. Just go full out I will not mind getting scratched up a bit."

Dash turned to see Shadow. "So I can just run right in to you and you wouldn't mind? If that's how you want to play this. I'm game." Dash flew around and at Shadow as they moved around the orchard the three fillies watch them go. It was weird how Shadow moved just in time to Dash coming at him. After ten minutes the girls seem to get the idea of the Shadow walk.

Spike was walking up and seen the three fillies sitting and watching something. "Hey guy what'cha doin?" Sweetie pointed a hoof to the two playing tag. "What's that all about?"

"If Dash tags Shadow he will buy us all lunch. So far Dash as missed him and come really closes once." Sweetie Bell said.

"No way Dash is the fastest flyer I've ever seen." Spike stopped and watched the two. He seen the clay pegasus flying at top speed after the crimson waring unicorn but not even get a hoof on him.

Shadow slipped in a shadow and was gone. "She's getting faster then I can move in the shadows." Shadow was next to Spike. "Oh here she comes I would get down." Rainbow flew in and about hit Spike as Shadow moved to the other side. "Okay Dash lets take a minute.. I'm running on E here."
Rainbow Dash landed with a thud and laid there. "Okay, but... only because... you asked." She painted.

"So what do you little ones think? Can you do it?" The three CMC's looked at one another and nodded. "Okay lets see what you got from this."

Apple Bloom tried first she made it half way but didn't get it. Scootaloo was next she get the shadow to wrap around her but was out before moving. Sweetie Bell got it on her first try Shadow could tell how slow she was at it but she did make it to the other shadow.
"That was great little ones you got that down. Apple Bloom, Scootaloo I see what your doing your getting it but don't force it." He turned to look at Sweetie Bell.

"Lady Sweetie Bell that was really good that you got it the first time out, but your a bit slow running to the other shadow just pick up the speed and you got it." Then to Scootaloo.

"Scootaloo you can use your scooter and move through the shadows and even cut your time down from one spot to the other." And last Apple Bloom

"Apple Bloom you just need speed and a calm mind and you will be able to buck any apple tree here with little to no effort. Now I want you all to train in your own ways to get it." Shadow Smiled at them as he finished saying that.

The girls faces lit up as they heard him say that and he give them pass by just getting a little of it right. They all ran off to train so that he would have to buy lunch for them.

"That will keep them out of trouble for a few days." Shadow said. "So Spike what brings you out here? Did you need something?"

The little dragon looked over to where Rainbow was and smiled. "I just came to talk to Rainbow for a moment."

"Okay but I would give her a minute to get her wind back. Here take this and get her something to eat." Shadow give the dragon six bits and two gems. "The gems are for you I know how you like them. Well I'm going to go see how the little ones are doing with their training. See ya later." Shadow jumped in to a shadow as was gone.
