Prologue: The Beginnings

The building roared with cheers as Bonnie the Bunny juggled stuffed toys for the children and Freddy Fazbear sang songs of joy. The children cheered louder when Chica the Chicken walked in with pizza balanced in her hands and when she sat them down, children swarmed them.

But behind two curtains of purple, sat another animatronic. One who was filled with rage, sorrow, hate and loathing. Foxy the Pirate. He had a faded red coat and a bent hook, his coat having a large cut in it, showing his exoskeleton. Next to him sat a child, but not one of flesh and blood, but of shadows and energy. She leaned on Foxy.

"Why don't they play with you Mister Foxy?" She asked in a wispy voice. Foxy looked down at the child, seeing nothing but a small black form with two white glowing eyes with two black dots in them and two rows of teeth.

"I am not a good Fox little one." He spoke with his voice being that of almost static but easy to hear the sorrow that laced it.

"Well that is just mean of them!" The child yelled but she calmed down when she felt the cool feeling of Foxy's metallic claws lay on her shoulder.

"No child...I am a very bad fox." Foxy spoke once again.

"But you're so nice to me." She argued

"You are different." She felt his metal muzzle rub into her shadow like hair and giggled at the sign of affection.

"I love you Daddy."

"And I love you Cub…”

Slowly the world around him swirled and everything slowly decayed and he sighed as the child was gone.

“Even if you aren’t real.”

Chica stood on the stage, her body feeling the internal clock ticking and waiting for it to hit 12 and soon it did. When it did she felt her Roaming mode activate and she glanced at the camera that watched her and the others and saw it was not live.

She quickly dashed from the stage and into her and Freddy's side of the hall, watching the camera on the stage turn on and watch Freddy and Bonnie. She started to walk down the hall but stopped when the camera turned on and looked at her causing her to freeze up.

She then heard the sound of Bonnie hopping from the stage and walking into the dining hall and the camera died down and Bonnie froze up like she had. She quickly nodded a thanks and started to walk to the door but was startled when she was flashed by a light.

She then heard a yelp and the door slammed shut causing her to mutter a curse at her failed attempt. She waited there and waited longer for Foxy to run for the door on the other side but didn’t hear his metallic feet hitting the floor. She felt anger swell up in her and stomped towards Pirate Cove.

“Hey you metal mutt! Get out here right now! Freddy is going to be so mad!” She yelled in a spite filled voice, showing her dislike for the fox. She heard a weak growl and Foxy poked his head out and glared at the chicken animatronic. “Get out here now!” She commanded but he just bared his sharp metal teeth.

“Ye best watch who ye be talkin to wench.” Foxy growled. Chica just laughed.

“We all know you're just a weak little puppy, you couldn’t hurt a fly.” She taunted causing the pirate fox to snarl and, unbeknownst to Chica, slowly raised his hook. “What are you going to do hmm? Bite my head off like the kid from 1987? You’re dull little teeth couldn’t puncture a sheet of metal let alone my exoskeleton!”

“Ye may be right, but me hook is sharp enough!” Foxy let out a screech and swung his hook at Chica in blind rage. However before the hook could hit her, it was wrapped in a pure black glow and snapped off. Foxy let out a growl and looked over Chica’s shoulder to see Freddy Fazbear with his eyes narrowed at Foxy.

“You have some nerve to attack one of us, Foxy.” Freddy spoke in a calm voice but it didn’t hide the rage that was behind it. Normally Foxy would have been terrified but really, he had nothing to lose for attacking them. He proved his point by letting out a laugh that would make a sailer shiver.

“I ain’t got much to lose Fazbear, ye took me freedom and ye took me hook.” Foxy suddenly launched at Freddy, surprising both Freddy and Chica. Freddy was the one to pay though as Foxy opened his mouth wide and clamped down on Freddy’s hand and put pressure on it.

Freddy let out a roar and raised his microphone and smashed it down onto Foxy’s head. Foxy snarled but the hit caused his jaw to suddenly crack and the bottom of his jaw fell to the ground, followed by Foxy himself. Freddy and Chica looked down at the fox, his eye flickering on and off before staying off.

“Good riddance.” Freddy growled and disappeared in a swirl of shadows. Chica just stared down at the shut down fox and felt a small ball of guilt form in her non-existent stomach. She slowly turned around, glancing only one more time at Foxy, and started to walk back to the stage, the plan of getting the guard was ruined anyway.

Mike Schmidt was usually a pretty calm guy, though having the temper of a cobra was very misleading. He was a pretty tall guy, being 6,2 at only 17 years of age. His skin was a strange thing though, being a stone gray and no color in his eyes, just two dots in an ocean of white.

At this moment though he was, not scared, irritated. One would think having a bunny in the same room with you would be fun, well not when this one is 10.4 and is made of metal and was trying to stuff you into a suit filled with crossbeams and wires. He knew he was in danger and kept the monitor up as it was the only thing keeping the rabbit away.

He then realized he hadn’t checked on Foxy and felt his heart stop. He quickly changed the camra feed to Foxy’s Pirate Cove and saw the curtains were ripped and the sign was broken. Then he noticed the limp form of Foxy, not moving or twitching. His eyes widened and he felt an unknown concern fill his body.

Mike took a deep breath and moved away from the monitor and Bonnie let out a screech but was surprised when Mike slammed the monitor into her mouth. While she was distracted with the piece of software stuck in her mouth, he ran to the left door and shut it then the right but ran through it and closed it, trapping Bonnie in the room.

He ran down the hallways and bast the stage, causing both Freddy and Chica to look at him in confusion. Soon Mike found the broken fox and leaned down to him, not noticing the small glow surrounding them. He slowly reached for Foxy’s head and he finally noticed the glow.

A violet glow.

He tried to get away from it but when he backed up, his back hit a sort of wall. He whipped around and saw Chica, Freddy and the freed Bonnie all looking at them in shock. Mike backed around and then tripped onto Foxy and tumbled onto as the glow intensified. He then looked at the animatronics and yelled in a deep voice.

“Help!”

Then in a flash of violet, he and Foxy were gone.

No one noticed the Violet phantom that peaked from Mike’s office, two narrowed red eyes and a red jagged grin..

“All to plan, now its your turn Vincent.”

Inside of a decrepit arcade sat a twitching animatronic, the body inside long dead and rotted but somehow still alive, given the ‘gift of life’ as the puppet had called it. All it was for him however was a curse. He then heard his phantoms voice and his old, grin split his face as he forced the suit to stand and walk towards a wall.

Slowly a glowing door appeared, not one of violet, but of purple. He slowly shambled towards it but the animatronic tried to fight back but Vincent forced Springtrap into it and passed out as he entered. The Violet phantom floated above the building and let out a dark chuckle.

“Let the game...begin.”

At a statue in Canterlot Gardens, a new addition was added to the pedestal. Instead of just a laughing female Draconequus and a small girl next to her, was Foxy curled at their hooves and claw.

In a library in the small town of Ponyville, Mike Schmidt appeared unconscious in his normal security clothing but also had a new additon to him, on his back to be correct and they slowly shifted and covered him in brown and black leather.

Deep in the icy prison of the former tyrant King Sombra, a new etching was carved. The Ice showed the misty form of Sombra being defeated but behind the two princesses stood a grinning Vincent and a cowering Springtrap.

Act 1: Mike's Life.

Chapter 1: The Meeting and the Sleeping

Slowly Mike Schmidt woke up and groaned as he got to his knees and leaned onto his elbows. He could already feel a headache coming to him and it caused him to growl in annoyance. Finally he was able to get to his feet and he looked around his surroundings to get his bearings.

He was in a very strange looking library, with the books being in slots that seemed to be carved into the wall, which seemed to be a strange pink wood. There also seemed to be stumps inside that served as tabled and pedestals for books and maybe writing. Then he noticed the stairs that lead to a small empty loft with a simple blue bed.

He suddenly felt something flutter behind him and whipped around and saw...no one. “I must be going crazy...great.” Mike sighed but suddenly felt the flutter again and turned his head and almost passed out. Sprouting from his back were two large bat like wings with the leather membrane being a dark brown and the muscle being black.

He reached for the leathery wings and brushed the membrane and shivered when he felt the new nerves and also felt a small blush on his cheeks. He quickly pulled his hand back and started to search for the muscle to control the wings.He then felt them flutter once again and started to stretch his new muscles causing his wings to extend.

He flapped his new wings and couldn’t help but grin. “This...is actually kind of cool…” He said in a deep voice. He then looked around the library and walked over to a shelf that had brown covering and a golden horse with a horn with a blue eye and two golden bindings on it and the cover read:

The Elements of Harmony: A Reference Guide.

“Hmmm so this is the T section…” Mike let out a snicker and walked over to a random section and put it there. “I am such an asshat.” He chuckled. He then walked over to the door and looked through it...and quickly slammed it shut and his eyes were wide open and mouth agape.

“What the hell were those things!?” He yelled into the library. He snuck over to the window and looked through and saw the strange creatures. They walked on two legs like him but had hooves and fur in different colors. They had hair that looked like they belonged in an anime and some had horns while some had feathered wings.

The strange part though was there seemed to be more women than males, and not just seeing more women than men but that there was almost no men in sight. Mike moved away from the window and back towards the door. He gave a sigh and reached for the door before pushing it open and waiting for the screams.

None came.

He opened his eyes and saw no one was panicking, most of them were just going about their lives. Mike just walked outside and slowly closed the door. He looked up and saw that the library was actually a tree. “...A’ight.” Mike just shrugged and started walking into the town.

As Mike walked he noticed that he was getting looks, not bad ones just looks of curiosity, at his wings and eyes. He knew his eyes were strange, not having any color but a black dot for a pupil. He just shrugged off the looks and looked around the town until he walked up to a passing women.

She had long, pink hair and cream yellow fur. She was wearing a green sweater and blue jeans. She had light blue eyes and an impressive bust, Mike trying his best not to look, and was as tall as him and on her back were two feathered wings. “Hi there, do you know where I can find town hall?” Mike asked with as much of a pleasant tone as possible which was not much.

She looked at him and seemed to be startled by his eyes but shook her head and quickly grew her shy expression once more. “U-Um...Yeah its d-down Mane street.” She pointed down a street. “Just g-go down there and t-then take a left, you should b-be there in a few m-minutes.”

Mike gave the girl a smile and nodded, “Thanks for the help.” He started to walk away but felt a hand grab his shoulder. He looked back and saw the girl with a small smile.

“By the w-way, My n-names F-F-Fluttershy.” She said and Mike nodded before introducing himself.

“Names Mike Schmidt.” She gave a small nod and her smile grew, “Well I need to get going, see you around Fluttershy.” They said their goodbyes and went their separate ways. Mike took the directions he had been given and soon found the large building.

He then walked inside and looked around and saw nothing of much importance. He walked up to the receptionist. “Excuse m-”

“Mayor Mare will see you now.” The receptionist interrupted with a bored tone. Mike was about to argue but just sighed and walked over to the door that read ‘Mayor Mare’. He knocked on the door and heard a woman's voice call out,

“Come in!” Mike walked in and saw Mayor Mare. She had pale fur and grey hair and was wearing a light tan suit with a blue tie and was wearing glasses. Mike sat on the chair across from the desk and shifted around to get his wings comfortable. “Hello sir, my name is Mayor mare but you may just call me Mayor.”

‘Which kind?’ Mike thought to himself. “Its nice to meet you Mrs. Mayor, I’m Mike Schmidt and I just came from-”

“Oh greetings Mr. Shmidt! We have been waiting for you!” Mike looked at her in confusion but she didn’t seem to notice as she shifted through some files. “Ah yes, you are to guard the Golden Oaks Library.” Mike was even more confused but quickly his it as Mayor looked up.

“You are of course aloud to sleep inside the library, oh and a pony named Twilight Sparkle will arrive soon so she will be renting the room out for today.” Mike nodded. “Here is your pay for this job and I thank you for taking the job.” Mike gave her a smile and nodded. She reached under her desk and pulled out a large bag that clinked together.

The moment he grabbed the bag he walked out the office and building and quickly ran to the large tree house and slammed the door close when he entered. “How in the fucking fuck did they know I would be here!? I don’t even know why I’m here! And what does she mean by pony!?” Mike was about to go in full panic mode but quickly did his breathing exercises.

“Its okay...its okay...let just see what they paid m-holy shit!” Opening the bag he saw a ton of golden coins. “...Either this means I’m super rich or I am piss poor.” Mike just sighed and walked over to a chair and sat down. He laid his head on a table and slowly let sleep take him.

Mike was raised from sleep by a hand shaking his shoulder gently. He slowly opened his eyes and heard four surprised gasps. He looked up and the first thing he saw were the two large breasts of Fluttershy. He quickly looked up and saw she was looking down at him with a worried look in her eyes.

“Are y-you okay Mike?” She asked in her sweet voice. Mike slowly got up and stretched all his limbs, wings included. He heard two more gasps that were followed by whispering.

“Yeah, I’m fine Flutters.” He then noticed the other four behind her. “Who are they?” He pointed at the four girls behind her. One had purple curled hair with snow white fur and asura blue eyes and was wearing a white dress. The next was completely pink with crazy hair and a hyper looking eyes and had on a yellow shirt and blue shorts.

The next two were both well built, one having orange fur and yellow hair with a band around it and was wearing a blue shirt under a brown jacket and dirty blue jeans and a stetson. The last one looked weirder than them all, rainbow hair, cyan fur and a green shirt with a thundercloud on it.

Just like Flutters she had two wings but were both cyan and she was hovering in the air with them. The white fured girl had a white horn poking from her forehead and the orange and pink one had neither but looked like they could break stone.

‘Wait does that mean I can fly? Sweet.’

“O-Oh, these are my friends. Pinkie, Rainbow Dash, Applejack and Rarity. Girls this is my friend Mike.” Flutters introduced and they all greeted him but Rainbow Dash who just glared at him.

“Your friends with a bat pony!?” She screamed and Flutters grew a scared look. “They are monsters! They suck blood and eat ponies!” Rainbow Dash ranted and the others glared at her.

“Darling please, those are just myths to make bat ponies look bad. I’ll have you know that I have had a few bat pony clients and they were very kind.” Rarity stated.

“Oh please, they are just biding their time to strike.” Rainbow Dash rebuttled.

“Oh give it a rest girly.” Applejack sighed and looked at Mike with a sheepish expression. “Sorry bout that sugarcube.”

“Bah, I’ve had worse insults slung at me, so why are you all here?” He asked and Flutters grew a smile.

“Well you slept through the whole party and we wanted to know if you want to go to the-” She was interrupted by the sound of loud thunder. She let out a yelp and dived into Mike's arms. He looked at her with a raised eyebrow and she grew a sheepish expression and quickly got off.

“Sorry...I-I don’t like t-thunder.” She explained. Everyone jumped when the door suddenly slammed open. Standing there was another girl with purple fur and long dark purple hair with a pink streak going through it. She was wearing a scholar's outfit with black stockings and on her forehead was a horn.

Standing next to her was a small kid who looked male and was wearing blue shorts and a violet jacket and a green shirt underneath. on his cheeks there seemed to be purple...scales? He had green hair that was done up in a mohawk that actually looked pretty cool.

“Quick Spike, we need to find the book quickly!” The girl rushed the small kid, Spike, and started to run through the library. “Ugh! Where is it!” She screamed in frustration. Mike walked over to her and tapped her shoulder. She whipped around and looked at Mike with wide eyes. “Who are you?” She demanded.

“Shut it, what book do you want because you are getting on my nerves.” He growled. He didn’t know why but just being near the girl made him irritated.

“U-Um...The Elements of Harmony: A Reference Guide?” She asked with a small grin.

“You mean this one?” Pinkie asked and held up the book.

“Where did you find that!?” The girl yelled.

“It was under E.” Pinkie answered with a smile.

She and all the others started to go over a plan and then ran outside. Mike just stood in the empty library, fluttering his wings before shrugging and letting out a yawn. “I’mma go take a nap.” He walked upstairs and into the small loft then crawled into the bed and let sleep ease his mind.

He was suddenly woken by the sounds of trumpets and let out a yell before smashing into the floor. “Ugh...ow...thats smarts.” He slowly got up and popped his wings before looking outside and seeing a large party.

…

“Nope.”

He walked away from the window and went downstairs and sat down on a chair before grabbing a random book and started to read it. “Hmmm...love poison? Sounds stupid.” He continued reading, not noticing the black mass watching him with two white eyes and floating teeth.

“Mikey…”

Chapter 1: The Meeting and the Sleeping

Chapter 2: Griffon Befriending

Mike let out a groan as his body once again hit the ground and he felt his sore wings lay limp on top of him. “Oh sweet ground...thanks for always catching me...but if you could be a little more gentler...that be great.” Mike murmured He heard two hooves hit the ground next to him and looked over to see a worried Fluttershy.

“Are you okay Mike? That was really high up.” She held out a hand and Mike grabbed it and Fluttershy pulled him up.

“Thanks Flutters and I’m fine.” Mike assured her and gave her a smile. She just sighed but returned the smile. Mike had lived in Ponyville for two weeks, living at the Golden Oaks Library with Spike and Twilight Sparkle. he mostly helped around with the books and being the night guard as he mostly slept during the day.

Mike had learned two things living here though and it is that Twilight doesn't know how to think when she was given two tickets to some sort of party and instead of asking for more tickets, freaked out about it. And that Applejack is as stubborn as a mule, oh and that there are talking cows and mules.

That was not as shocking as it should have been.

He grunted as he started to flap his bat wings, slowly rising into the air but once again he fell down. He sighed as he looked at the floating Fluttershy. “Flutters, I don’t think my wings are made for this.” Fluttershy flew down and helped him up. “Lets just do this some other times, you still need to go help that family of ducks you told me about.”

Fluttershy’s eyes grew wide and she suddenly zoomed off. Mike just chuckled and started walking towards Ponyville. As he entered the town though he heard the sound of hiccups and flames. He turned a corner and saw Spike picking up scrolls but everytime he hiccuped he would send a scroll.

Mike made his way for Spike and was about to over some help but his feet suddenly hit an almost invisible string. Mike let out a yelp before his face slammed into the grown but he let out a yell when his forehead hit a very blunt rock. He laid on the ground while clutching his head and suddenly he started to see flashes.

A small boy smiled up at Foxy the Pirate.

Foxy’s eyes swelled with an almost black purple energy.

He lunged at the Child.

“M….”

Foxy’s teeth sunk into the childs head.

“Mi…..”

Missing frontal lobe.

“Mike!”

His eyes snapped opened and he looked around frantically. He lay on the ground, blood dripping from his forehead. Pinkie looked at him with worry filled eyes while Rainbow Dash glared down at him. “Mike! We are so sorry!” Pinkie looked at him with tears in her eyes. Rainbow Dash just scoffed.

“Come on Pinkie, he’s probably just trying to get at-Gah!” Dash was interrupted by Mike tackling her to the ground and his security hat flew off. Everyone gasped at what they saw, stitches lined his bald head and they noticed his usually white eyes had turned black and his pupils were now white.

“I will rip out your eyes and shove them so far up your ass that you will see nothing but fucking shit for years!” He roared into Dash’s face who looked up in fear. He then said in a chilling voice, “Now...Leave me alone!” He stood up and stomped over to his hat and picked it up before dusting it off and putting it back on hiding his stitches.

Nopony noticed the small ghost child following in his shadow which had a large grin. Everypony was silent for a few minutes before quickly leaving the scene. Rainbow Dash stayed on the ground for a little with her eyes still wide open with shock. “Dashy?”

Pinkie looked down at her scared friend and quickly lifted her up and walked towards Twilight’s. Pinkie couldn’t help but keep thinking of the stitches on Mike’s scalp and shivered from his eyes inverting like that. She could feel her mane deflate a bit at knowing she had caused him to be so angry and let out a depressed sigh as she soon arrived at Twilight’s.

“Mikey...I’m sorry.” Was the last thing she muttered before she walked into the library.

On a cloud sat a griffon. She was tall with a slender but lean build, standing on a pair of lion like paws, with two vicious talons for hands and a dangerously curved beak. A fairly lush white mane of sorts covering her collarbone with the very tips being a light purple. She also possessed two amber eyes and a pair of powerful brown wings.

She wore a brown shirt under a black jacket that had a few chains hanging from it and tight blue jeans. She looked over the small town her friend had told her about and was about to fly to it when she heard a rage filled yell. She looked under her cloud and saw a strange pony with two large bat wings but it looked like it was a moving rock as its skin was as grey as stone.

It was wearing a light blue security shirt and dark blue jeans and on top of its head was a had that read ‘Night Guard’. “Is this the dweeb that yelled? He sounded...like a griffon.” Gilda shot up from the cloud and towards the pony and when she was near him she called out, “Hey you!”

Gilda waited for a response but didn’t get one. She was about to call out again but then she noticed him shoot towards a running rabbit. He grabbed it by the neck and with a simple squeeze its neck snapped. She looked at the pony and watched it stomp over to a small pile of sticks.

She flew over to the pile and landed where he could see her. She then noticed its face was flat with only a nose sticking out. His face was filled with anger and she then looked at its eyes and saw they were completely white with only a black dot for a pupil. “Uh...hey why did you kill that rabbit?” She asked and he looked at her with a raised eyebrow.

“I’m planning to eat it? Why else would I kill it?” Its said as if it were obvious and Gilda looked at him with a shocked look. “What?” He questioned her look.

“B-But you're a pony!” she yelled and he looked at her as if she was stupid.

“No I’m not, I’m a human and I can eat meat.” he said and Gilda cocked an eyebrow...thing.

“Do all humans have large bat wings?” Gilda asked and for once she saw a small smile graced his face.

“No, I’m just a very lucky bastard...well kind of.” he made his bat wings flutter and Gilda raised her eyebrow...thing again.

“What do you mean ‘kind of’? You want to be one of those unicorn snobs?” She sneered at him but was surprised by him chuckling.

“Nah, I just don’t know how to fly with bat wings.” he explained and Gilda smiled.

“Well I know a few tricks on flying, plus I know a few Bat ponies that have the same wings as you, just not as...big. All you have to do for me is share that rabbit, I’m starving.” She offered and Mike grinned and she noticed his canines.

“Deal.” he walked over to the fire and grabbed a piece of flint and struck it against a stone causing a spark that landed onto the sticks. “Hey...ummmm,”

“Gilda.”

“Ah right, mind getting me some leave?” She looked at him with confusion but flew over to a bush and grabbed two talon fulls of leaves and flew back and dropped them onto the ground next to him.

“There you go, hey what is your name?” Gilda asked.

“Names Mike.” He grabbed the leaves and started to put them under the sticks. He then started to use the flint and stone and kept striking them until a lucky spark set the leaves on fire and quickly set the other leaves before it finally started to burn the sticks, creating a fire.

“Wow, thats pretty smart.” Gilda said behind Mike who nodded then held out the rabbit.

“You know how to gut this? I usually mess up and waste the meat.” Mike asked and Gilda nodded before grabbing the rabbit and getting to work, Mike watching her work. Soon they had the meat n a spit and hovering over the fire and they both drooled at the smell.

“Hey, I never asked but what are you?” Mike asked and Gilda grinned and puffed out her impressive chest.

“I’m a griffon, an awesome one to be more specific.” She boasted and she was waiting for him to disagree like everypony did. Instead she heard him chuckle and looked at him and saw him looking into the fire.

“I’d believe it.” He stated and she looked at him with wide eyes and a small blush.

“You...you would?” She stuttered.

“Well one, you are the only griffon I have met and two, you seem pretty pleasant, better than some of the ponies in Ponyville.” Mike said with a grin, “Especially this girl...mare...whatever who won’t stop trying to get me to leave town.” Gilda cocked her head.

“What’s the mares name?” Mike just chuckled and grabbed a piece of the rabbit and took a bite.

“Rainbow Dash.”

Gilde almost choked on a chunk of rabbit, catching the attention of Mike. “You okay there Gilda?” he asked with concern.

“Y-Yea, just...I...I know Rainbow Dash.” She noticed Mike tense a bit, “She’s a friend of mine from flight school. We were great friends...or we were until she moved down here.” Gilda seemed to grow somber. She then felt a hand grabbed her shoulder and saw Mike looking at her with a smile.

“Well how about you and me be friends eh?” Mike suggested nd Gilda looked at him with her amber eyes and slowly a grin grew on her beak.

“Yeah, that be pretty cool.”

They both finished the rabbit and put out the fire. They then sat on a fallen tree and just talked. Gilda had came from a place called Griffonia in the Griffon Empire. He explained how he was bung here by unknown means but didn't go in depth about Earth or the Pizzeria.

They soon noticed the sun slowly dipping and realized they were pretty far from Ponyville. “Great, this will be fun.” Mike sighed as he got up and was about to start walking when he felt Gilda’s talons grab his shoulder. She just smiled before wrapping her arms around him and shooting into the sky and onto a large cloud.

When he fell onto the cloud he stood completely still. “This...is both awesome...and terrifying.” Mike said and Gilda just laughed before flying off and gathering more clouds and slowly the small cloud turned into a box with a small window, like a small house. Gilda then flew in and laid down.

“There we go, we can just sleep here for the night.” Gilda proposed and Mike smiled.

“I like this idea, plus these clouds feel awesome.” He started to shift around until he was laying down and leaning his back and head onto the wall. He then felt something shifting next to him and saw Gilda imitating him with a grin. She then leaned onto his shoulder and he wrapped his webbed wings around her while she used her feathered ones on him.

Slowly they slipped into sleeps embrace.

Twilight walked in place with a troubled look on her muzzle. On her couch sat an angry Rainbow and a worried Pinkie. “Are you sure thats what you two saw?” Twilight asked, looking back at the two.

“Yes Twilight! He is a madpony!” Rainbow yelled but Pinkie quickly cut in,

“But its our fault for tripping him Dashy! He was bleeding!” Rainbow huffed and crossed her arms.

“You two said his eyes changed color?” Twilight asked, trying to change the subject.

“Yeah, and when his security hat fell off he had...Twilight I think something happened to Mikey because his whole head was filled with stitches.” Pinkie said with a shiver.

“oh no...I need to talk to him about those, they could be infected..” Twilight said with worry.

“You do that, I’m going to go wait for Gilda to show up.” Rainbow said before leaving the library. Pinkie and Twilight both looked at each other and sighed before saying their goodbyes and leaving to go to bed.

Chapter 2: Griffon Befriending

Chapter 3: Anger

It has been three days since Gilda arrived and she and Mike have both been in the large plains they had met in. They had a few close calls with a few search ponies who were looking for Mike but they were able to hide in the nearby woods. Gilda had also helped Mike learn how to use his bat wings.

They were made for more rapid flapping as he kept doing it like a pegasus, going to slow. With a bit of time he was able to soar through the sky like a knife through butter and Mike loved it. They both where reclined in two separate clouds cut into look like beach chairs.

“So I tell Sharp Shooter that if he could somehow get a date with Leather Wing I would give him 50 bits. Next thing I know I walk on them both fucking in the locker rooms!” Gilda and Mike both burst out laughing and Mike almost fell over from laughter. “Any-Anyway, thats how I lost 50 bits, and it was worth the blackmail.”

“Oh god! I wish I met your friends! They sound awesome.” Mike exclaimed while trying to stop laughing. Gilda laughed and used her wings to push her cloud closer to Mike’s.

“So, got any interesting stories?” Gilda asked and Mike grew a sad expression.

“No...not really, my life was pretty boring until...well this.”” Mike emphasized on his point by spreading his wings. “But hey, I can make some new memories here.” He said with grin. Gilda let out a chuckle and bumped her cloud into his. “Oh you want to go?” Mike challenged with a smirk.

“Bring it skinboy.” She taunted and they both started to fly off and gather clouds and started to mold them onto there clouds. Soon Mike had a bumper car like cloud that had a slanted front like a ramp. Gilda’s was a bit for aerodynamic with two wings on its side and a cone on the front so it would cut through the air.

“Did I ever tell you how much I love clouds?” Mike asked and Gilda grinned before thrusting her wings and sending her cloud at him. Mike just waited for her to get close before he used his wings to make his cloud dip and the moment Gilda’s cloud hit she went flying as her cloud went up the ramp.

“Woooh! Bumper cars!” Mike called out and they both started to go at each other like two angry birds. Suddenly Gilda got a lucky shot with her wings and was able to rip a side of Mike’s cloud. Mike didn’t see it coming and fell out of the cloud.

“Holy shit!” He cried out and started to beat his wings and soon he was airborne. He then saw Gilda laughing at him and he grew a sinister grin and with a plan in mind he shot towards Gilda’s cloud, grabbed one of its wings and started to fly around in circles. Gilda let out a squeak but already the cloud started to form a new shape and Gilda soon found herself on a flat circled cloud.

She felt two hands steady her as she felt the whole world spinning. “Okay...that...that was pretty fun.” Gilda said with a small chuckle before throwing up over the edge.

“I hope no one is down there or they are in for a very nasty surprise.” Mike chuckled and Gilda laughed. “So, know that our little dog fight is over, what do you want to do?” Gilda opened her beak to speak but was interrupted by a loud roar. They both swirled around to see what had caused the noise and their eyes widened.

“Is that...a giant...blue star bear?” Mike asked with terror clear in his voice.

He hasn't had much luck with bears, Freddy being a clear example of that.

“T-Thats an Ursa Minor! They live in the Everfree Forest and near parts of the Griffon Empire. What's one doing here!?” Gilda sounded like she was on the verge of a panic attack.

Then they heard the screams.

Now you might be thinking that they swooped in and started to kick the bears ass right?

Wrong.

They mostly helped with evacuation though Mike and Gilda were both given looks, but the strange part was they were glaring at Mike like he had killed a dog. Suddenly the bear was lifted into the air and a song started to play that made Mike shiver. Finally a large water tower was shoved into the bears mouth and sent flying into a near by forest.

Mike and Gilda both watched it all happen with wide eyes and Mike’s mouth was open like a gate. Suddenly he heard the sound of beating wings that seemed to be heading for him and Gilda. He turned around to see who it was-

“Mike!”

“Gah!”

and groaned as he was tackled to the ground by a flying projectile. He opened his eyes and felt a trail of blood slowly come from his nose as his head was being hugged by two large breasts and arms that belonged to a very happy Fluttershy. “Mike! I’m so glad you're okay! I was so worried!”

“Um...glad to see you to Flutters and not that I’m not enjoying the view but could you let me go?” Mike asked, his speech a bit muffled. Fluttershy let out a yelp and quickly let Mike go. He got back up and stretched his now sore muscles.

“Mike, where have you been!?” He heard a new voice ask and looked next to see Rarity with a miffed looking expression. Mike was a bit confuse as to why she would care as he had never even talked to the mare let alone the others. He usually just had small conversations and then leave.

“I’ve been camping out in the field to the east of here with my friend Gilda.” He said with somewhat narrowed eyes. Gilda walked up to him and crossed her arms under her breast with a raised eyebrow.

“Sup.”

Suddenly they heard a gasp and they all turned to see Rainbow running over to them. “Gilda!? What are you doing with that monster!?” She sounded like she was about to explode with rage. She didn’t notice the glaring Mike and no one or pony noticed the shadow slowly creeping into Mike’s shadow once more.

“Monster? Dashie what are you talking about? Mike is an awesome Human.” Everypony was quiet as they all looked at Mike with raised eyebrows and questioning looks.

“Mike, you're not...a pony?” Twilight asked as she looked at him with shock. Mike just looked at them all with wide eyes and a open maw.

“You...thought I was a pony?” He asked slowly. most of the town nodded with the six girls included. Mike started to shake and everypony got back as they waited for him to explode.

And he did indeed explode.

Of laughter.

Mike was rolling on the ground laughing his ass off while holding his sides. He could feel tears running down his face and he almost got into a coughing fit. Slowly he got back up while still chuckling. “Oh my god...that was fucking hilarious.” Mike panted while the ponies looked at him in shock.

"How is this funny!? Your an entirely new species! You need to be studied!” Twilight said all this with wide eyes and a giddy expression and instantly Mike’s good mood was gone. The crowd looked at him with different levels of shock.

“Yeah, not gonna happen.”

Twilight looked at Mike with a shocked expression and Gilda let out a small snort at the girls reaction. “W-What...do you mean...’not gonna happen?” Twilight asked slowly and everypony saw the small hair pop out of her mane.

“Just that, no. I ain’t no mutant...though that would be cool.” Mike grew a thoughtful expression as his mind wandered to him using mutant powers to shot plasma and piss. Suddenly one of the ponies, a girl with pale yellow fur and a rose colored mane screamed.

“Everypony run! It’s going to eat us all! The human mutant thing will kill us all!” She screamed bloody murder.

Mike and Gilda looked at each other with smirks and waited for one of the ponies to do something about her but instead the crowd let out screams that could match the earlier screams and started to run for their homes. Gilda and Mike quickly took flight and hovered in the air to watch the crazy ponies run.

“Gilda.” Mike said calmly.

“Yeah Mike?” She looked over at her human companion.

“What just happened.” He asked.

“Well...ponies are herd animals and...when one is scared...well it can cause a large panic...I think.” Gilda tried to explain as the entire town looked like it was deserted. She heard Mike take in a deep breath before letting t out, They both then noticed the six girls were still there but were...glaring at them?

“Mike! Look what you did!” Applejack yelled and Mike felt his anger start to go and his eyes started to shake a bit.

“Me!? What did I do?!” Mike roared and the other ponies gasped at the anger they heard. But one pony stood tall with a determined look on her face. Fluttershy flew up and into Mike’s face and started to give him The Stare.

“Now listen here mister, you do not yell at your friends like that! Especially after you caused that panic!” The other 5 waited for him to apologize but Pinkie and Rainbow felt their eyes widen when they saw his eyes started to invert and he started to shake.

“I didn’t do anything! And when the hell was I any of your friends?!” He roared and they could of sworn they heard a younger voice with his. They looked at him in shock at what he said and then he looked at Gilda who looked at they eyes with her wide amber ones. “Come on Gilda, lets get out of here.”

Gilda glared down at the ponies and nodded and they both flew off towards their camps. The mane six felt saddens suddenly start to well up inside and they all ran towards the library, not noticing the two green eyes with red pupils and a purple miasma flowing from them.

It shot away from the town and started to travel the lands in only seconds and then got to a large crack in the frozen north and slithered down it and into a large mass of black mist.

“It is done, the elements have angered the human and griffon to leave, their minds were easy to break into and the human was quick to anger.” A deep and sinister voice growled out. He then heard a giggle that made him think of an insane stallion.

“Good job Sombrero, now we just need him to find ‘friends’ and release the Fox and then the road to freedom will be in your grasp.” A half man half robotic voice spoke and the black mass snarled.

“My name is King Sombra, and of course my freedom is near, my power will strengthen from that humans anger.” The mass shifted more and closed its eyes.

“Yes...I guess it will won’t it?”

Mike and Gilda both sat silently inside the small cloud home they had made and just sat there. Mike’s eyes had long since turned back to normal and Gilda looked over at him from time to time but neither of them said a word. Until…

“Mike, why don’t we go to the Canterlot Slums?” Gilda asked and he looked over at her with a raised eyebrow.

“One: Why would we want to go there and two: Where is it?” He asked and Gilda gave a weak smile.

“Its on a mountain and is where you will find the most loyalist friends there is, its where I met Leather wings and Sharp Shooter. Its where the poor live but it is mostly run by them anyway.” she explained and Mike grew a thoughtful expression. Then a grin slowly grew on his face.

“It sounds better then here, lets go.” Gilda smiled and they both shot out of the cloud and started to fly towards Canterlot. Following on the ground that was in Mikes shadow was the grinning face of a child.

Chapter 3: Anger

Chapter 4: Hello...

Mike and Gilda landed in a large area that seemed to be like a town square what with the stands and large broken down fountain. One strange thing was that the ponies here didn’t even bat an eye at Mike but most smiled when they saw Gilda. “Follow me.” Gilda said and Mike nodded and Gilda started walking down a dirty trail.

Mike looked around and couldn’t help but feel a small bit depressed at all the run down houses and businesses. He saw a few beggars and ponies hiding in alleyways but they just watched and never did anything. Soon Gilda stopped and Mike did the same and looked at where they had stopped.

The house looked to be two story and in better conditions than the surrounding ones. “Where are we?” Mike asked and Gilda smiled before knocking on the door.

“This house belongs to the richest ponies in the Slums.” She explained and the door opened and Mike had to hold his nose so it wouldn’t bleed. Standing there was the most beautiful pony had had seen. She had an hourglass figure and two large breasts that were contained in a black and pink striped long sleeve shirt and she had on dark blue jeans.

She had a short dark blue mane and bright yellow eyes that had slit pupils like a snakes. Gilda had to stop from laughing at Mike’s reaction and wrapped the mare in a hug. “Nice to see you again Leather Wing.” She said and the mare wrapped her arms around the tall griffon.

“Its nice to see you to Gilda.” She said and Mike heard a slight accent but couldn’t tell were from. She then looked down at Mike and Mike finally realized something very important and embarrassing.

He was short.

The mare was about an inch taller then him and Gilda was a head taller than both of them. “Well hello there, may I have your name?” She asked and he quickly shook his head to clear his thought and raised a hand to the slightly taller mare.

“My names Mike Schmidt, just call me Mike.” He introduced and she gave him a smile and shook his hand.

“Its nice to meet you Mike, I’m Leather Wing, Gilda’s friend. Please you two-” She moved to the side of the doorway, “-come on in.” Gilda walked inside and Mike followed behind. They seemed to have walked into a living room with a ripped blue couch and old looking coffee table.

The walls had chipping lime green paint but the house also had a cozy feeling that Mike couldn’t help but enjoy. “You two can sit at the table why I go make us some tea.” Leather Wing offered and turned around to head into the kitchen and Mike finally noticed the two large bat wings on her back.

“So she is a Bat Pony?” Mike asked while he and Gilda sat down on the couch.

“Well Thestral is what her pony type is, you know like unicorn, pegasus yada yada yada.” She said with a spin of her talions. Mike nodded in understanding and they both started to just talk while they waited which wasn't long. Leather Wing walked back into the living room with three cups of tea.

“Here you go.” She handed Mike and Gilda a cup and they both took a sip and sighed.

“Thanks Wing.” Gilda said with a smile. Mike nodded in agreement and took another sip. Leather then sat next to Mike which confused him only a little. ‘You’d think she would want to sit next to Gilda, but eh, what do I know.’

“So Gilda, Mike, what brings you two to the Oasis of Canterlot?” She asked and Mike raised an eyebrow at the name of the slums but kept his mouth shut.

“Well I was going to this small town called Ponyville to see an old friend when I met Mike. We hung out for a few days when suddenly an Ursa Minor showed up. Me and Mike flew to the town to help with evac when the town just turned on Mike like the fucking plaque.” Gilda explained and Mike let out a small growl.

“Yeah, usually small towns like that still have the old pony traits in them while bigger places like Manehatten and Canterlot have evolved from it.” Leather WIng nodded and then put a hand on Mike’s shoulder. “I’m sorry you had to deal with that.”

Mike grinned and said with a more happy tone, “Ah its fine, just glad I got away from them.” Gilda and Leather Wing smiled and spent most of the time talking to each other about this and that. Slowly Mike’s eyes grew heavy until he fell asleep and his sleeping form caught the girls notice.

“He can use my guest room.” Leather Wing offered with a whisper and Gilda nodded. She picked him up and through him over her shoulder and walked up the stairs that would soon lead to the guest room. Leather Wing sat in silence before speaking to herself.

“He’s kind of cute.”

Mike was woken by a sudden shuffle next to him. He slowly opened his eyes and they seemed to glow a bit in the dark. He then gave a small groan and rolled over only for his face to meet two large orbs. Mike stared at them for a moment before reaching out and grabbing one and giving a small squeeze.

He heard a moan.

…

‘Hmmm...too tired to question this shit.’ Mike thought and just turned back around and slept.

The child looked up at Foxy with a large grin.

He heard a man say hello.

He turned around and saw a man of purple smiling at him.

The man spoke.

The boy smiled.

The boy ran onto the stage and to Foxy.

Foxy greeted the child.

Something slithered into Foxy.

His eyes turned a dark black with a hint of purple.

Foxy lunged for Mi-

Slowly Gilda woke up and let out a groan as she stretched her back and wings and hearing a few satisfying pops. She got up and put on her clothes but left her jacket off and walked out of the room she was sleeping in. She then looked down the hall and walked over to the room Mike was sleeping in.

She peeked inside of the room and had to stop herself from bursting out laughing at what she saw. Mike was sleeping soundly with his head being held by Leather Wing and his head was in between her bust. Leather Wing’s wings were wrapped around Mike like a large blanket and her arms around his head.

Gilda quickly ran from the room and into the bathroom where she quickly bust out laughing. She was in there for a good five minutes before calming down enough to walk back into the room and giggling a bit as she saw them in the same position. She walked over to them she shook Leather Wing.

Slowly she woke up and opened her yellow bat like eyes and looked up at Gilda. “What is it Gilda? I’m trying to sleep.” She asked with a groggy voice. Gilda just smirked and pointed at Mike. She slowly looked down and her face turned from grey to a fiery red and she quickly got up, somehow not waking Mike up.

They both walked out the room and down the stairs to the living room. They sat down and Leather Wing stayed silent for a moment before she felt a talon grab her shoulder and she looked up at Gilda. “So, you're trying to seduce my friend hmm?” Gilda asked with a grin.

“I-I’m sorry Gilda! I-I Didn’t mean to.” Leather WIng...sobbed. Gilda looked at long time friend with a shocked expression. “I-I didn’t mean to try and seduce him! I just l-layed in his bed! I’m s-sorry.” She started to cry and Gilda quickly wrapped her arms round her friend and let her cry into her shoulder.

“Wing its okay, I’m not mad at you.” Gilda soothed and let Wing cry. “Why are you so sad though? I don’t mind if you were to go out with him, thats up to him.” Leather suddenly went quiet. “Are you okay?” Gilda asked worried. Slowly Leather Wing let go and looked at her with red eyes from her crying.

“B-But...aren’t you two...together?” Leather asked and Gilda looked at her with a straight face for a minute before falling onto the floor laughing.

“T-Together!? No! W-We are just bro’s!” Gilda said through her laughing and Wing’s face got even redder than before. Suddenly they heard a groan and a door opening and closing. They soon heard running water and groans before the water was turned off and they heard the sound of the door being open and closed once more.

They watched Mike walked down the stairs and they noticed he had small bugs under his eyes. He looked at the two girls and waved before walking into the kitchen. Gilda looked at Leather Wing and shrugged jerked her head towards the kitchen. Leather blushed a bit and got up to walk inside the kitchen.

She saw Mike over a frying pan and her stove with two eggs sizzling on it. “Um...M-Mike, you don’t have t-to make breakfast, I can make it.” She said with a nervous smile. Mike looked over at her with a small grin and spoke in a clearly tired tone,

“Nah its fine, you let us sleep here so its only right to do something around here.” Leather felt a small blush grace her face but smiled and walked back into the living room with Gilda.

“He said he was making us breakfast.” Leather WIng told Gilda who nodded. They just talked for the most part and soon heard the sound of clinking dishes and Mike came out balancing three plates of eggs with a fork in one hand and two plates on his arms and his other hand holding a plate.

“Here you go ladies.” He said as he lowered his arms and the two girls grabbed a plate and fork. He then sat in between them and they all digged into the eggs. Gilda was the first to finish with Wing and Mike finishing in that order,

“I’ll do the dishes.” Gilda suddenly volunteered and grabbed Mike and Wing’s plates and walked away into the kitchen. The two just sat in silence for a minute before Leather Wing scooted a bit closer to Mike with a small smile.

“So Mike...can I ask you a question?” She asked looked at him with a blush. Mike looked at her with a grin.

“Sure, what do you want to know?” She looked down for a bit before asking.

“Why do you always wear that night watch hat?”

…

Mike went silent for a minute before sighing and rubbing the back of his head. “Well...as I’m sure you've noticed I’m not exactly a pony.” Wing nodded. “I was a security guard back where I was from and I watched the night shift. I..think I was in an accident but no one would tell me what happened.”

He reached up and pulled his hat off and she gasped at the stitches in his head. “I lost my frontal lobe and...well I should be dead, but they said I was as healthy as ever only my skin pigmen was messed up and my pupils lost color and they glow a bit in the dark.” He chuckled. “I’m pretty much a flashlight.”

He suddenly felt two arms wrap around him and he was pulled into a tight hug. “I am so sorry you had to go through something like that.” Leather Wing said softly and Mike felt some tears well up in his eyes and he couldn’t help but cry into her shoulder.

“Yeah...I’ve been told that a lot.”

And so that was how it stayed for the three. They all lived in the large house, helping however they could. Mike had found out Leather worked for the Canterlot Night Weather Team and Gilda had found a job at the Day Weather Team. Mike didn’t even question the whole weather controlling thing.

Mike had found a small time jewelry shop in the oasis and had offered the owner to be a night guard. He agreed and with the three brining in bits, they were able to refurbish the house with new furniture and paint.

Life was good…

Then Mike met Her.

Mike lay on the top of The Topaz Jewelry and just stared at the moon. It was much brighter than the one back on earth. He had on his usual Night Guard outfit and white cloth wrapped around his hands from a thug trying to steal from the store only for Mike to beat the shit out of him.

He let out a sigh and stood up and was about to fly up into the air when he felt a small hand grab his. He looked down and almost screamed at what he saw, a small black figure with two glowing eyes and floating teeth. “What...are you?” Mike stuttered

The thing looked up at him then the teeth moved as if it had lips, “Mikey...I’m your friend…” His eyes widened when he heard the things voice was both female and young with an echo like tone.

“How old are you?” Mike asked while slowly kneeling down. The child like apparition walked over to him and hugged his chest.

“I’m ten years old.”

Mike’s pupils shrank then he slowly closed his eyes as he hugged the child back. “What happened sweetie?” His voice grew a more father like tone.

“The...the purple man hurt me.” The child started to shake.

“Did you know the mans name?” Mike asked with a sense of rage.

“No.”

Mike was still as the child started to sob. He looked up at the moon and sighed. “Whats your name sweetie?”

“...I don’t know.”

Mike was silent for a minute before he thought of an idea.

“Do you like the name Chica?” He asked and the child was silent for a minute before her teeth shifted into a smile.

“Yes...my name...is now Chica…” Mike smiled and ruffled her hair causing the child to give an echoed giggle.

“Well how about you stay with me?” He asked and the child nodded and then slowly melted into the roof and into his shadow. Mike laid down and he felt the child come back and lay next to him.

“Sleep tight, your save now Chica.”

Chapter 4: Hello...

Chapter 5: Peace Shattered.

Mike slowly woke up and crawled out of his bed, his security guard clothes hanging on the back of his desk chairs back. He walked over to the clothing and put it on but when he looked around he noticed something that made his heart skip a beat. His hat was not with his clothes.

He was about to go into freak out mode when he felt a small shock come from his back and he looked back to see a tentacle like appendage coming from it and it held his hat. He let out a breath and the appendage put the hat on Mike’s head and retreated back into his back.

‘Thanks Chica.’ He said in his head and felt a small warmth come from his head, this happening when Chica was happy. He then fixed his tie and walked out of his room and down the stairs to the living room. He looked around and saw the house was empty, exception being the sleeping Gilda.

He sighed and walked out the door and was about to take off but his wings went stiff. He looked back and saw a small trail of black tendrils holding them still. He was about to ask Chica what she was doing but then he heard the flapping of wings and looked up to see Leather Wing flying towards him.

The tendrils shot back into his back while Mike waved at Leather Wing who waved back. She landed onto the sidewalk and Mike jogged over to meet her there. “Hey Wing, how was weather duty?”

She said with a smile, “It was okay, it was scheduled to be a clear night sky so I was planning on taking my lunchbreak now to see the clear skies.” Mike nodded and glimpsed at the sky, seeing the millions of stars and the large moon. “Would you like to join me Mike?”

Mike looked back at Leather Wing who had a small blush on her dark fur coat. He then smiled, “Sure thing Wing, lets head over to the jeweler and we can hang out on the roof.” She grew a large smile and nodded. They both spread their wings and took off into the night sky into the direction of the shop…

Not noticing the small little filly behind them.

Mike and Leather Wing lay on the roof of the Jewelers shop and were just looking up at the stars. Mike could feel Chica in his head feeling tired and he relaxed enough for her to sleep. “Glad you invited me for sky watching Wing.” Mike said with a smile which caused Leather Wing to mirror the smile.

“Its no problem, just thought me and you could spend some time together.” She said with a smile and small blush. She shuffled a little closer to Mike, him not noticing. “So Mike...I’ve been wondering…” She looked away a bit while Mike looked over at her with a raised eyebrow.

“What is it Wing?” He asked in his calm voice that made Wing shiver a bit. “Are you cold?” Mike asked and when she didn’t answer he just rolled his eyes and sat up a bit to spread his left wing and let it drape over Wing who let out a small eep. “If your cold then you just needed to tell me.”

Leather Wing felt her face go red while Mike continued to look up at the sky. She kept looking at him, his eyes giving a slight white glow, his stone like skin shining from the moonlight and his eyes, usually filled with irritation and sorrow, now filled with calmness and peace.

“Mike…” He looked over at her and raised an eyebrow. “I...I wanted to ask you something…”

“What is it Wing?” He asked.

“Mike...would...would you-” She kept stuttering and Mike just gave her a worried look.

“Wing, what are you-”

“Will you go out with me!?” She suddenly burst out.

Mike looked at her with wide eyes and a dropped jaw.

“W-What?” He asked in an almost whisper.

Gilda slowly woke up to the sound of the door opening and she guessed it was either Leather Wing or Mike coming home from work and was about to go back to sleep when she suddenly felt something cold and sharp being pushed onto her back. She quickly jumped into the air and looked down to see a knife stuck to where she was just sleeping.

She wiped her head up and saw a shocking sight, a filly with white fur and a golden mane and tail. She was wearing rags as clothes and was covered in dirt, but the worst part was the look she had. A large grin with two pupiless eyes and seemed to glow a slight purple.

“What are you doing!?” Gilda screeched at the filly but all she did was giggle and pulled out another knife, this one more jagged. She then lunged at Gilda with surprising speed and stuck the dagger into Gilda’s wing causing her to let out a scream of pain and knock the filly into the wall.

Gilda looked down at the knife and was about to pull it out when suddenly she felt a searing pain on her tail. He looked down to see it was on fire, which she quickly put out and looked back at the filly with pure rage on her face, not noticing the little filly’s hand smoking.

Gilda jumped at the Filly with her talons stretched out to maul the filly when the filly suddenly thrusted her hands out and a ball of fire shot out and right into Gilda’s face. Gilda screeched and landed on the floor with a thump while she cried out from the pain from the stab wound and the scorching of her face.

She looked up and her eyes widened at the filly who hand the dagger from the couch in her hands. “Why...are you doing this…” Gilda groaned out and the filly let out a giggle while raising the knife.

“The purple man said to.”

Mike and Leather Wing were both sitting on the edge of the jeweler with their legs dangling in the air. They had been silent for the past few minutes after Leather Wing had asked Mike out. He had been silent and Leather Wing had been on the verge of tears at the silence.

“Mike, please say something, anything.” Leather Wing begged, worried of not only not being with Mike, but losing him as a friend. “I’m s-sorry if I made y-you mad but can’t w-we still be friends!?” She had tears going down her face at this point and Mike looked like a statue.

Leather Wing was about to burst into tears when she felt an arm wrap around her shoulders and she was pulled into a sideways hug by Mike who had a slight blush. “Look Wing...I...I’m not really...good with this kind of stuff, romance I mean, and...well I just don’t know if I would be a good...boyfriend.”

He said this with his eyes a bit downcast. “But...hey I’ll give it a shot.” He looked down at Leather with a smile and was not prepared for her to tackle him into a hug and her lips to be place on his. They laid there for a minute before Leather Wing removed her lips from his and giggled at his wide eyes and burning blush.

“Okay then...didn’t see that coming.” Mike breathed out and Leather WIng gave a chuckle before standing and holding a hand out for Mike. He grabbed it and she hefted him onto his feet. “Well, glad to know you like the short ones.” He joked as he only made it to her neck in height.

“Just means I can cuddle you easier.” She rebuttled with a smile causing Mike to roll his eyes. They both took off into the night sky and towards their house to tell Gilda the news of their relationship.

They soon landed on the stairs to the house Mike opened it and was about to walk in when Chica suddenly made his freeze in place and spoke through his mouth. “Be careful.” It was strange as it was his voice with the faint sound of her’s. He looked at Leather Wing, “Hold on Wing.” She nodded with confusion and Mike slowly entered the house.

He looked around and his eyes were wide open at the destruction that had come to the house, scorch marks and broken furniture. “Gilda!? Where are you!?” He called out and started to search the house only to find nothing. “Wing! You can come in...but be careful in here.”

Her heard her hoofsteps and then her gasp as she must have seen the destruction. He started walking towards her when suddenly he tripped on a random string and fell on his face and something landed on him with a thud and let out a yelp from the weight of whatever had fallen on him.

Then he heard Leather Wing scream.

He quickly pushed what was on top of him and looked over to what was on him and almost had a heart attack at what he saw and he felt bile rise in his throat. Gilda lay there, with her beak ripped off and her wings tied in a knot and she was covered in so much blood.

And her eyes.

They were gone.

Mike slowly grabbed Gilda’s head and looked into the two sockets with tears trailing down his face. Leather Wing dropped next to him and cradled his head while he let out sobs at the lose of his friend. Then they heard it, hoof steps coming from behind them, causing them to look back and see a filly and in her hands were two amber eyes.

“Looking for these?” She asked with a sick grin and wide, pupils eyes. Leather Wing could feel her own tears trail down her face but felt Mike shaking more than he was and looked down to see him glaring at the filly with pure rage and then saw it happen, black tendrils crawled over his eyes until his eyes were fully black and his pupils a bright white.

He slowly stood up and glared at the filly, his eyes seemed to crackle energy that shot down to his fist. “You...You did this…” His voice was more demonic and she could hear another voice, a child's. The filly giggled and nodded and then threw the eyes behind her and pulled out a jagged, bloody dagger.

Mike opened his mouth and Leather thought he was going to roar but instead she saw his mouth was pure black with an extra set of teeth inside and he let out a screech that shattered the windows. He then launched himself at the filly with a raised fist, with the filly trying to dodge only for him to spin and use his much longer legs to hit her in the side.

She let out a scream as a crack echoed throughout the house and her grin finally dropped into a frown of pain. Mike landed on the floor and quickly ran towards the filly and grabbed her by the head and his hand seemed to be inside a large black hand that was bigger then his hand.

“Now,” He growled, “Who made you do this.” She whimpered and then screamed as Mike squeezed her head.

“The Purple Man said to!” She screamed and Mike raised an eyebrow.

“And where is this ‘Purple Man’?” He asked.

“I-In the frozen n-north!” She cried and suddenly started to spasm in his grip. Mike let her go and she continued to twitch until a purple wisp flowed from her eyes and out of the house.The filly slowly vanished and the last thing he saw of her was her two dull blue pupils. The house was silent with only the sound of a crying Leather Wing echoing throughout the house.

Slowly Chica pulled herself together, all the black energy Mike had was gone and he slowly walked over to Leather Wing and kneeled down to pull her into a hug, which she graciously accepted. They just kneeled there, Mike with a blank expression and Leather Wing crying into his chest.

Slowly the purple wisp slipped into a larger crack and into a frozen golden green suit. Inside a mutilated Vincent;s grin grew larger as he saw what had happened through the filly’s eyes. “Well Sombrero-

“Sombra.”

Sombra, looks like our little night guard is angered enough, how is it powering you?

“It is well, I should be able to free that crazy chaos lord in due time.”

Vincent giggled once more while the suit shuttered.

“Oh shut up you damn suit.” Vincent growled and it let out a whimper while going silent.

“Soon...it’ll be Foxy’s turn.”

Deep in the Canterlot Garden, a large statue stood, a very tall and skinny women wearing a vest and long jeans while on one hand was a talon like glove and the other a more lion like one and her feet had a reptile boot and a brown boot. On her back were two wings, one like a pegasus and the other, a thestrals and her hair was long and wild.

Hugging her leg was a filly with a mane as wild as her mothers, only her mothers was not as tangled as hers, and a small hat with a propeller on it. Her eyes were wide opened showing how they were swirled and she wore a shirt and skirt with straps on the skirt that were over her shoulders, and on her legs were two striped stockings.

And finally, laying on its stomach with a sad expression was a monsters looking fox with a large hook on one hand and a clawed hand on the other. It had large, sharp teeth on a jagged looking muzzle and had torn shorts and two sharp feet and on one eye was an eyepatch. The strange part was unlike the other two, its other eye was open and glowed white, hardly noticeable.

On a pedestal was a dark brown sign that read:
