Limacon DreamscribbleView OnlineMy Little Pony : Ties That Bind.Limacon DreamscribbleDark Green eyes gazed out the nearby window in deep thought, she knew inside this day would come but was caught off guard that the time was now. A long raven mane flowed down her backside, bangs styled off into a feminine wave that hid her face slightly, her tail was flat and wispy yet flicked side to side with each step she took. Her violet coat was dull and bleak, long had the shimmer faded away from her body and soul. Her hooves clicked softly along the marble floor of her castle echoing eerily around her, swiftly she made her way down the dimly lit corridor. She had been given visions of this day granted to her by a higher power, one she kept in check- this power from deep inside the Void of all worlds could easily corrupt any soul using it for its own purposes. But she knew better than to constantly use her own powers she bided her time, the mere thought she would never be used easing her mind as she stopped in front of a large oak door leading down to the dungeon. Taking a deep breath she allowed her horn on her head to glow a dark green, the door opening slowly before she took her lead down the spiraling stairway, unsure what she would do when she reached the bottom. The light within the dungeon was dim a cold breeze whistled inside sharply from cracks on the walls, even as rats ran across the floor past her hooves-this place was indeed chilling. Stepping forward the Unicorn looked towards three castle guards, each wearing dull grey armor the same shimmer had faded away not only from their outfits but from their eyes as well. As she stepped forward the guards nodded and stepped aside kneeling slightly as her gaze fell upon a beaten young filly, her rainbow mane shimmered so brightly even though her body was bruised and beaten. Slowly kneeling forward she gently ran a hoof through the soft mane of the young mare, who simply opened bright colored violet eyes looking up in fright and confusion. Yet she was too weak to do anything but softly sigh aloud and close her eyes once more, weakly trying to regain her strength through sheer force of will. Rainbow Dash winced in pain after a few seconds as her eyes shot open looking up to a dark figure before her, its eyes were green and filled with a sense of dread and darkness like nothing she had ever seen before. " What...are...you? " Rainbow Dash whimpered aloud as a dark violet hoof slowly extended towards her, caressing her cheek slowly though as if trying to show love., yet all Dash felt was fear. " Your Savior." A Wicked voice echoed in reply. *********** Limaçon Dreamscribble yawned aloud softly her brown hues gazing outside her window to see that the moon was already in full swing, yet she had not even completed her study plan for the upcoming days. Sighing she knew it wasn't her time management skills that had snuck up on her, but instead her thoughts and daydreams about one day traveling to new and wonderful places that had her in this mess. Stretching her slender frame and wings slightly her white coat frazzled out as she allowed another yawn to escape her lips, this was going to be one of those long nights in Ponyville. Eyes looking down to the empty schedule before her she swiftly began to write out the game plan for days to come, when suddenly she heard the door to her home open. Gasping aloud Limacon jolted up looking forward to see the door hadn't budged at all, her heart racing in her chest wildly. Sighing she ran a hoof through her straight orange colored mane that had frazzled out from the scare, as she grumbled under her breath softly she hated that she was hearing things. " Hello Lima." A rasp voice spoke as she froze still with fear, knowing that she did not just imagine that. Limacon slowly turned around to see a tall figure behind her cast in darkness, she couldn't make out any features as if this pony was from another place entirely. " You!- please don't hurt me I don't have much I'm just a Math Tutor..." She felt herself stumble over her words as she gazed to the figure who just let out a dry laugh. " I'm not here to hurt you Lima, I'm here to offer you something." The figure spoke in a calm voice waving a hoof towards her as Limacon gazed down to her desk seeing a pile of gold bits and gems of all kinds littering her workspace. Brown hues widened in shock as she placed her hooves atop the riches feeling their sleek and shimmering frames, knowing this wasn't a dream but reality. " Oh my! Why give me this? " Limacon slowly lifted her hooves off the riches gazing over to the figure, who laughed aloud from the darkness. " So you can live your dream dear Lima, no more do you have to work day in and out for small change, chasing a dream of traveling the world seeing new places." The figure replied as Limacon gazed down slowly. " You know as you chase this dream it will never become a reality, you will be here day in and out doing the same job with no respect or reward forced to live a mundane existence." The shadows of the room seemed to echo around Limacon who gently placed a hoof atop a large gem. " I'm here to offer you these riches so you may leave this place forever and travel ,see new places, meet new ponies." The figure walked closer as Limacon felt her heart race faster. " Go on take it!- leave this place behind." The figure spoke in a deeper voice whispering into her ear, sending a shiver down her spine. Limacon gazed to the gold and jewels knowing her dream was in reach, yet the more she looked onto the riches the less it seemed to sparkle the Red Rubies almost seemed to be bleeding as each bit looked dim and dull. " No!-This isn't right I can't take this from you, it feels wrong." Limacon slowly closed her eyes taking a deep breath, before opening her hues once more seeing things more clearly now. " And you're wrong!- I may not get paid the most and sure I may not ever realise my dream, but my student's I tutor do Respect me because I'm their friend and help them find the potential within themselves! " Limacon smiled to herself gazing back to her study planner. " And in the end that is my reward, my riches." Limacon turned around to face the figure only to see her room was empty, gazing back to her desk the riches were gone and so was the chill that her body felt.
GladiusView OnlineMy Little Pony : Ties That Bind.Gladius" So you failed to sway her hmmm? " Discord laughed aloud as he sat atop a nearby stump deep within a dark wooded area his legs crossed a smile on his face. " The heart is not easily swayed by earthly riches." The Mysterious Figure spoke in a stern but calm tone, her voice never raising nor falling off into a whisper. " Well if you knew that, then why even try? " Discord asked as he rolled his eyes, this acquaintance of his was beginning to get under his skin. " The heart like all things is a living thing, it too has a destiny intertwined in many paths..." The figure spoke as she flaunted a hoof before her a portal made of green mist appearing. " You make it sound like you've done this before." Discord asked his intrigue hooked by the manner of this figure as silence filled the space between them both. " You have your order's Discord find me the others,' and ask not question's you shouldn't." The figure spoke in a tone that was all business. Discord simply sighed biting his tonuge, knowing if he soured this mares mood he would never get the answers he sought and the one truth his own heart ached for. " Sure thing." Discord sighed as he already found the third pony she wanted named Candy Pop, she wasn't hard to find. " If I'm unable to sway the hearts of those I seek then we must go to Plan B, so be prepared." The figure spoke trotting into the mist as it started to vanish from view. " Grrr...You said I had only to help you now not later." Discord snapped as he stood up the figure sighing aloud as she vanished. Discord sighed himself knowing this partnership would be a long one. ************** Gladius slowly trotted down the long twisted path he had taken hours ago for a new job he accepted from a mother mare, who claimed her daughter had run away deep into this winding forest of the Everfree. The branches were tangled above blocking out what little light the moon had offered from high above as it also prevented the pegasus from flying which would have helped alot in this case. His mane was a fiery crimson color that was short and pointed up, his coat was pure black matching the darkness around him perfectly as red colored eyes kept a close watch on his surroundings. He was a traveler and for most of his life spent his time helping those who couldn't help themselves, it was the most he could do to forget the memories that haunted his past ones filled with true horrors. If he could save others from feeling his pain then in the end, it was worth the trouble he usually found himself in. Snapping back into reality he could hear the soft sobbing of a young mare in the distance, this had to be the pony he was sent to find on this dark night one he would lead back home. Galloping proudly down the twisted path he pushed through the barbed thorn ridden forest, breaking down barriers of brush as he followed the sobbing while it grew closer and closer. Giving one last push he sprung out of the dark brush and into that of a hidden pond deep within the woods, the water before him shimmered brightly yet wasn't clear but a dark purple color as it were poisoned by something. Slowly his eyes studied his surroundings looking for the source of the crying before spotting a large boulder that had rolled down a nearby hill, beneath it trapped in a small ditch slowly filling with the murky water was the young mare he was hired to find. " Please help me..." The voice of a young mare spoke in a shivering tone her coat and mane soaked to the bone as she weakly squeezed a hoof out of a small opening for help. Gladius galloped over to the boulder as he placed his own hoof atop hers' to help keep her calm, he could see that the ditch was filled with leaking water up to her neck she had very little time left. " Don't worry Miss I'm here to help you..." He spoke unsure of his own words this boulder would take three or four strong stallions to move at most and he knew there was no time to head back. " I'm so cold..." The mare coughed aloud shivering as she slowly slid her hoof back into the opening her eyes filled with a sense of fear and tiredness. Glaring towards his obstacle he swiftly placed his shoulder against the rock, his hooves digging roughly into the muddy dirt below him as he pushed with all his strength. The boulder never budging even a little, he could only watch as the ditch continued to fill with the cold muddy water the mare sobbing as it reached above her neck. Gladius felt his heart racing he had to do something he couldn't stand by and let this mare fall to her fate, a wicked voice in his head whispered there was nothing he could do. It mocked him telling him to give up to just walk away or face frightening memories of the young mares death. Gritting his teeth he locked out the whispers, his muscles strained as he pushed up against the boulder, his body tensing even as he felt the world around him spinning. Looking down he watched the mare cry as her whole face vanished below the water, he knew he must push ahead or face his own fate before him. Wincing he screamed out from the top of his lungs, his wings spreading outward proudly, his body aching while muscles threatened to tear, his hooves quivering he used everything he had as the boulder pushed away. Taking a deep breath calming his mind he gave one last push as the boulder rolled off the ditch., ignoring his own pain and aching body he swiftly pulled the mare from the water as she gasped for air crying and coughing. " Who...who are you? " She whimpered shivering as he turned towards her removing an emergency blanket from his saddle bag and wrapping it around her as she continued to cry frightened. " Nopony..." Was his reply as he gently comforted the young mare before him, the whispers finally fading away. Yet unknown to him a figure cloaked in darkness watched his every move from afar hidden among the trees as she slowly turned around fading back into the shadows once more. *********** " Where am I? " Rainbow Dash asked as she sat upon a soft velvet pillow, many a food item placed before her as she gazed forward to a mare named Lazura. Lazura stood from across the room watching her as she slowly trotted forward a smile across her face. " You are in Serenity Hollow young child." Lazura spoke her voice trying to come off as warm and soft but instead sent a chill down Dashes spine. " I...who am I? " Dash asked her mind running a blank, all she remembered was a blinding light then waking up in a dungeon cold and bruised. " That my child is a question I can anwser." Lazura smiled turning away as she slowly walked towards the door to exit the warm room. " You know who I am?, tell me! " Dash snapped as she tried to stand, only to feel her body ache. " Soon but first eat and rest, in the morrow all will be revealed." Lazura spoke as she stopped momentarily before continuing on and exiting the room. Dash sighed aloud slowly lowering her head as she took a bright red apple in her mouth, her stomach aching for food as she began to eat it. ***** Outside the castle atop the roof stood a Pony with a long crimson mane flowing down her head, her fiery tail swished to the side like a thunder bolt as dark green eyes watched the distance. Her horn atop her head shined a dark red as her hues narrowed, spotting those eyes in the distance how their pupils were pointed in shape while her lavender mane flowed in the wind. " Hmmm...found you." The Pony growled her mind-set only on one thing revenge.
FateView OnlineMy Little Pony : Ties That Bind.FatePonies who have given up on the good in the world, those who have had broken heart's never mended by time and even the one's who have forgotten loves warm embrace they are " The Void Walkers." . Their bodies change as they are warped by the darkness, losing all of who they were and only left with what they have become. Lost in the darkness of their own misery no longer bound by Fate, Destiny or Nevermore, they search the realm's for other's like them, collecting an army of darkness, so that one day they might create their own path.

For shadows can not understand the light. Or maybe. Just maybe. They can and only need a guiding hoof to finally reach what they miss so dearly. " Hidden Memoirs of Fate." Nightingale slept in a deep slumber floating mid-air within a bed of shadows, her hooves twitching softly yet her rest remained undisturbed. The Mysterious Figure gazed upon her in silence, knowing this creäture was nothing more than an echo from the past, twisted by its own hatred for the world. Turning her back on the young mare, she placed all her attention on a small golden coated filly unicorn before her, sitting down on shimmering marble floors. She was writing within multiple book's scattered around her, many quills swirling around penning stories within their pages. Her eyes were a pale blue as if she lost her sight so long ago, yet that would only be a deception this filly among two other's could see more than anypony else within the universe. " Fate." The Figure spoke to the filly who gently gazed her way before sadly adverting her eyes. " Yes, What is it that you want? " Fate asked as she continued to pen stories across the floor. " I've completed what you have told me and tested the Guardian's, Has my fate changed at all? " The Figure asked with a hopeful tone, the young filly simply nodding no. " What! " The figure snapped in anger, a glowing horn within the cloak turning a dark violet. " Fate and Destiny can't be so easily changed, you have made an effort to do so, but it has yet to be written if your action's will change the outcome at all." Fate sighed sadly a tear rolling down her cheek. " But as before, I must warn you- those who try to change fate, will never find what they are searching for." The young filly pleaded with the figure as she watched the cloaked one merely turn away from her. " I will change my fate, I swear it! " The figure gazed upon Nightingale once more using her magic to keep her in a slumber till the right time to send her forth again as a pawn within her game. " At the cost of how many?, Such as Discord? " Fate asked as The Figure remained silent never replying to her first question. " Discord will play by my rules, if her ever wishes to know who his daughter is." The Figure spoke in a chilling manner. " Have you re-written this pathetic creatures tale yet? " The Figure then asked in a stern tone as Fate softly nodded yes to the question. " Yes, But she is a Void Walker she is no longer bound by Myself or the other's." Fate spoke as she levitated a book over to the Figure who took it within her own powers. " Maybe so but she is different, she has not lost her essence completely, so with a little magic I should be able to change her memories and even event's in her life to my liking." The Figure spoke as the book glowed a dark green an odd symbol burning into the cover. " Dark magic might do so for a small while, but sooner or later she will remember it all and be in control to choose her own ending." Fate spoke softly her voice barely rising above a whisper. " By then I will have no use for her." The Figure huffed and allowed Nightingale to fade into a green mist teleporting her back to Forgotten Hollow, but with a cloaking spell hiding her location from those searching for her. " If my spell is a success She and Rainbow Dash will think they have been long time friends, and within time will play right into my hooves." The Figure spoke in an icy tone and slowly walked towards a wall in the distance. " Lazura might think she will use Rainbow Dash to trap the Bearer's of Harmony, but unknown to that fool I'll be watching every move she makes." The Cloaked Figure giggled as a portal of shadows sprang forward before her. The Figure slowly fading out of the Halls of Eternity, taking with her The Heart of Beginning's the only item able to allow her to call orders over even Fate itself. Twisted by a darkness the fate of many will be changed. Twisted by Fate their Destinies will lead them far and wide. Nevermore will claim some. But you mustn't give up.
