Chapter 34: Comfort (Un-Edited)

“So what happened?”

I was at the Library with Twilight and Spike. I once again had that dream about meeting the Elemental Dragons.

“Well…it went something like this.”

(Flashback: Dream Realm)

I opened my eyes, and saw I was standing on the same glass dome. The image was different now. It had my new look, along with my wings. Not only that, I saw two new gems around the dome.

The first one was the symbol of a Yoism, which was a circle, with a curved ‘Y’ in the center, along with a little circle on the center top. The color of this symbol was cyan.

The second new symbol was in the shape of a Triskele, which was curved, and looped on the three sides. The color of it was green.

Like before, two orbs appeared in front of me, one being cyan, one being green, and with that said and done, I heard the same sweet voice.

“Determination.” The cyan orb glowed and I was covered in a cyan aura.

“Spirit.”Green aura surrounded me, mixing with the cyan color.

After that, the orbs brightened and covered the area with light. When the light died down, two beings stood before me. One being was wearing a cyan cloak, while holding a sword, with a cyan blade, cracking with lightning. His hair was spiky cyan, along with his dragon eyes

The other being wore a green cloak, holding a green sword, swirling with wind. His hair was smooth and light green, along with his green dragon eyes.

“So…you must be the newbie the others told us about.” The cyan being said. “Hm…you don’t look much.

“Appearances can be deceiving….Raitoningu, The Dragon of Lightning.” I answered, narrowing my eyes. “And don’t think I know you…Kaze, The Dragon of Wind.”

The beings gasped silently in shock, probably not knowing that I would not get their names immediately.

“So…you know us then?” Kaze asked.

I nodded. “I already met Kasai, Chikyū, Mizu, and Mentaru. I know for the fact you two have answers for me.”

Kaze was about to answer, but I cut him off. “I know what you’re gonna say. I have to find your Gems, hidden somewhere in Equestria, in order to find the answers I need.”

Kaze nodded. “Yes. I apologize that we can’t give you the answers you’re seeking.”

I sighed. “It’s cool. I know I have a long way to go before I can reach the answers I need.”

The two nodded.

“With that out of the way, time for your test.” Raitoningu said getting into his battle stance.

“He’s right. We didn’t come here to not just chat.” Kaze added getting ready for battle as well.

I was reaching for my sword, but realized it wasn’t there, making me growl in irritation.


“What’s wrong rookie?” Raitoningu taunted, “Forgot something?”

“Daniel.” Fire merged next to me and Kasai appeared.

“Kasai.” I said in surprise.


“Huh!? What are you doing here Kasai!?” Raitoningu asked.

“How can you be here Kasai?” Kaze asked a little surprised by the fire warriors appearance.

“Daniel found my gem a while back. He’s one with me now. My powers are his now.” Kasai answered.

Raitoningu chuckled. “Good. With your powers in his hands, this will make this battle more interesting.”

“Show us your free spirit Daniel.” Kaze said, swinging his sword a little.

“Here Daniel.” I looked and saw Kasai’s fire sword, the same one he used when we first fought. “Take this.”

I nodded and took the blade. As it did, I felt my fire flow more freely in my blood. I was more in control in my power, and I felt stronger.

Kasai jumped back and watched the battle.

“You’re not gonna help me?” I asked the fire warrior.

“No. This is your battle. The only help I gave you is allowing you to use my sword. Use it well.” Kasai answered.

I nodded and got into my battle stance, with the sword roaring with its flames.

(3rd Person POV)

Daniel roared and charged at the two warriors, with the blade leaking fire.

“Heh. I’ll win this with my eyes closed.” Raitoningu smirked.

Daniel swung the sword, but Raitoningu immediately vanished before his eyes.


“What!?”

Raitoningu appeared behind him and swung his lightning sword. Daniel saw this and just barley blocked the attack just in time. The blades clashed, letting off electrical pulses, and fire swirled around them.

“Hmph. Not bad, but it’s gonna take more than just blocking to defeat me.”

Immediately, Daniel saw Kaze charging at him, running fast like the wind. His eyes widened when he saw the wind warrior raise his sword and tried to land a direct hit on the young samurai.

The attack landed and Daniel yelled in pain, and kid across the floor. His cheek was oozing with blood.


Kasai continued watching the battle, thinking, “It seems Kaze and Raitoningu are giving it their all. Well, they are the top strongest dragons in the group, besides Meian.”

Daniel got up and panted heavily. He swiped the blood off his cheek with his thumb, glaring at the warriors before him.

“Damn, these two are stronger than Kasai, and Chikyū. This is gonna be a tough battle, since the two use Lightning and Wind. However, they’re not the only ones who wield an element.”

Daniel quickly sheathed his sword, and placed his hands together. “Fire Jutsu Release!”

Daniel entered his fire form. Fiery aura surrounded him, while his red hair flowed. His eyes were now solid red again, and his raven wings had red tips at the end.

“Yeah, now we’re cooking! This battles gotten more interesting.” Raitoningu said now getting pumped.

Kaze smirked. “I agree.”

Daniel screamed and he lunged forward, with his blade now ablaze with flames.

Kasai narrowed his eyes a little, “Hmm…interesting. His fire form has gotten stronger the last time he used it. Could it be my sword, or his will?”

Daniel swung his blade, and his blade clashed with Kaze’s. the two clashed their blades over and over, only hearing the sounds of the blades clashing echoing in the darkness around them.

The two swords clashed again and started grinding against one another, letting off elemental energy.


“Show me what you got Daniel.” Kaze said.


“Gladly.” Daniel jumped back, and quickly did some hand seals, “Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!”

A massive ball of fire shot forward, but using his wind, Kaze dodged the attack.


“Impressive power you wield. No doubt you are the one.” Kaze said impressed.

Daniel narrowed his eyes.


“Now, let’s see how you can handle THIS!” Kaze did some hand seals as well, “Wind style: Whirlwind Fist!”

Kaze charged and his fist was surrounded in high winds. With his incredible speeds, he landed the attack directly into Daniels chest, making him roar in pain, as the wind pushed forward, increasing the damage.

Kaze jumped back and shook his fist a little, to shake off the pain.

Daniel slowly got back up up his feet, while he was breathing heavily, and blood trickling down his mouth.

Kaze was quite surprised. “Amazing. He took major damage from my Whirlwind Fist, and yet he’s still getting up. That kids got real spirit.” He thought smiling under his hood.

Raitoningu appeared out of the bloom, with lightning crackling around him. He started throwing his sword around, landing hits around the young samurai. 

Daniel was able to block some of the attacks, but at least eighty percent of the attacks landed directly at him.

Raitoningu jumped back and smirked under his hood.

“My turn.” He did some hand seals as well, and his hands were crackling with lightning. He jumped in the air and shouted, “Lightning Style: Lightning Fang!”

Lightning bolts shot out and clobbered Daniel with great power. The impact of the attack was so strong, it send Daniel off the edge of the glass surface.

Raitoningu landed on the ground and chuckled sheepishly, after realizing what he did. “Oops. Guess I overdid it.”

“You think?” Kasai asked rolling his eyes.

“Hmm…” Kaze hummed.


“What is it Kaze?” Raitoningu asked.

“If Daniel truly fell off the glass surface, he should have awoken by then.” Kaze explained.

“Yes, you’re right.” Kasai said agreeing.

“But then…that means…” The three warriors looked at the edge for the moment where Daniel fell…and then a hand shot out and grabbed the edge, making the three gasped softly.

“No way…” Raitoningu muttered in amazement.

Daniel pulled himself up and finally got back on the glass surface. He was kneeling and panting heavily, while his body was a little scorched from the last attack, along with his cuts bleeding.

“That’s impressive Daniel,” Kaze said amazed, “Tell us, how did you do it?”

“Heh, Simple. I used my wings to give myself a little boost in the air, and I used the sword at cling to the wall when I got close enough.” Daniel explained weakly, while pulling his sword up.

Raitoningu laughed. “Dude, you got a lot of guts, and you’re one hell of a determined human. I’ve never met anyone with something like that in my life.”

“Indeed. His spirit is also very strong, and also free.” Kaze added smiling.

Kasai smiled and walked over to the injured Human, “You alright?”

“Ehehe. Yeah, just a little sore…and bleeding out.” Daniel said weakly.

Kasai smiled and shook his head. “Your injuries may feel real, but this is a dream. Your wounds are not real.”

Daniel chuckled. “I knew that.”

Raitoningu and Kaze walked up to the young warrior.

“Not bad kid. Guess I did underestimate you. Sorry for taking my jutsu attack to far.” Raitoningu said rubbing his head.

Daniel chuckled. “It’s all cool Raitoningu. That was a great battle.” he turned to Kaze. “You did very well as well Kaze.”

“Thank you Daniel.” Kaze thanked bowing.

“You’re battle is far from done Daniel.” Kasai said, getting the young man’s attention, “You still have a long way to go. Only one more being is left for you o meet. Remember to be ready.”

Daniel nodded, knowing the last being to meet…was Meian, the Dragon of Light and Darkness.

Darkness started swallowing Daniel as the three dragon warriors smiled at him.

“Good luck Daniel.” Raitoningu and Kaze called out, and held their hands up to him, before he was swallowed. Daniel felt his blood jolt with electricity, and felt a breezy feeling to it, before he blacked out.

(Flashback End)

“That’s what pretty much happened after I woke up.” I finished.

“So you met Raitoningu and Kaze. Who’s the final dragon you have to meet?” Spike asked.

“Meian, the Dragon of Light and Darkness. No doubt he’s the strongest of all the elemental dragons. I don’t know if he’ll wish to speak to me, or fight me. I have to be ready, no matter what.” I said.

The two nodded.

“Another question, does this mean you posses wind and lightning abilities now?” Spike asked.

I shook my head. “No, not yet. What I know so far, the abilities I acquired will be unlocked during some kind of situation. When Pipsqueak almost died, the fire and earth abilities awakened within me. When Pipsqueaks aunts almost took him away from me, Water and Mental were unlocked. I don’t know when my wind and lightning abilities will be awakened, but I’ll have to wait and see.”

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.

“I’ll get it.” Spike said and went to the door.

Me and Twilight remained quiet for the moment, until I asked her something.

“Hey Twi, what happened to you last night? You’ve never been that sexually active since the Heat season?”

Twilights face flared bright crimson, and she hesitated. “W-w-well, I…”

“Come on Twi. No need to hide anything from me. Whatever it is, I won’t be mad at you.”

She calmed her breathing, but her face was still bright red. “Well…I found this-“

“PRINCESS CADENCE!” Spike shouted from the door.

“CADENCE IS HERE!” Twilight shouted and immediately ran for the door, leaving a dust trail behind.

I blinked a few seconds, until I chuckled. “Do they seriously get that worked up when royalty comes over?”

I got up from the couch and head for the entrance. I saw Cadence and Twilight hugging each other, and Twilight spoke.

“You should have at least told me you were coming. I would have cleaned the library.” Twilight said a little embarrassed.


“Oh, it’s okay Twilight.” Cadence said, but her voice sounded a little cracked.

Already, I could tell something was wrong. Not only was her voice a little cracked, but her eyes looked a little swollen, and red.

“Oh, hello Daniel. I love your new look.” She greeted looking at me.

“Hi Cadence, and thanks.” I greeted back.

“So how are you doing? How’s my brother?” Twilight asked smiling.

Upon hearing about Twilight’s brother, Cadenced hung her head, shadowing her eyes.

“Cadence?” Twilight asked, now seeing the change in her behavior.

“Twilight, bring her inside.” I said.

She nodded and brought the princess of Love into the library, and the two sat down on the couch.

“Cadence…what’s wrong?” Twilight asked, concerned for her sister in law.

Cadence’s fists tightened into a ball, her teeth bared a little, and I saw tear streaks rolling down her cheeks.

“Cadence?”

I remained quiet, while we waited for her to answer.

“Shining…he…he…” Cadence was choking on her breath.

“He what?”

“SHINING CHEATED ON ME!” Cadence screamed out of the bloom.

…

…

…

Silence fell through the room from her sudden outburst…but from the news, we were shocked out of our own minds. Shining cheated on her? No. That can’t be possible.

“W…what?” Twilight asked, her voice starting to betray her.

“S-shining…cheated on me.” Cadence sobbed a little, “I caught him bedding with another mare back at the Crystal Empire. He’s…been doing this for *sob* four months.”

“Oh my god.” I muttered quietly with the three not hearing me.

Twilight and Spike were shocked, but Twilight was more shocked out of all. How can Shining, her own brother, do this to Cadence, the Princess of Love!? She looked back up at Cadence, who was still crying. Tears of her own fell and she hugged her tightly, with Cadence hugging her back.


“I’m so sorry Cadence.” Twilight muttered, doing her best not to sob.

“Why…why did he have to do this?” Cadence sobbed, hugging Twilight tighter.

I was at the corner. My hair shadowing my eyes.

“Shining…” I muttered. “Since the day we met…I thought you were a great pony…” My fists clenched, and my teeth bared, “How in the hell…can you do this to her? You had…no fucking right to cheat on her!” My anger inside started boiling, and my body was shaking in fury. It was too much and I let it go.

“SON OF A BIIIIIIIIIIIIIITCH!” I roared and punched the wall hard, receiving a large crack. My screaming made everypony in the room jolt up and look straight at me.

I breathed heavily, trying to keep my anger under control.

“Daniel?”

I slowly looked up and saw the others, who were a little scared by my sudden outburst of my own. Seeing them like this made me calm down a bit.

I sighed heavily, and rubbed my fist. “I’m sorry. I don’t know what gotten into me.”

“Why did you scream like that?” Twilight asked.

“I guess I’m just upset about Shining. I just couldn’t believe he would do something like this.”

“I know what you mean.” Twilight growled. “I swear, I’m gonna put him in his place for what he did.”

I nodded in agreement, and I turned my attention to the Princess of Love, “I’m sorry if I scared you Cadence. That wasn’t necessary.”

Cadence got up from the couch and faced me, “It wasn’t your fault. I just didn’t know you would get so angry about this situation.”

“I’m down right furious about this. Shining shouldn’t have never done that to you.” I said rubbing my hand, easing the pain.

Cadence hung her head a little. “Why did this have to happen? He vowed his love to me and promised he would never hurt me?”

I frowned, and then brought her into a hug, shocking her.

“I’m so sorry this happened. Nopony, not even you deserved something like this. I only wish there was something I could have done.” I said.

Cadences eyes widened a little, and she gasped silently.

“I know that I can’t give you the right comfort that you truly need, but I’ll do everything in my power to heal your broken heart. If you ever need to talk to anypony, me, Twilight, Spike, and the others are here for you. We’ll be there, if you ever need one of us.” I said tightening my embrace on her.

Cadences pupils grew, and a wall of tears formed.

“Daniel…”

She returned the embrace and sobbed into my shoulder.

It broke my heart seeing her like this. I felt so helpless while she was drowning in her own sadness.

“Shh…let it out Cadence.” I whispered.

We stood there for a while, letting Cadence remove all of that weight off of her. I’ll be sure to kick Shining’s ass later on if he ever shows his face here.

Cadence stopped crying and looked up into my eyes.

“Thank you.” She whispered smiling sadly.

I smiled and placed a hand on her shoulder, “We’re all here for you Cadence.”

Twilight and Spike nodded in agreement, as they wiped their tears.

“Twilight, I know I would be asking a lot, but…do you think I can stay here for a while?” Cadence asked my marefriend.

Twilight smiled, and shook her head. “You don’t have to ask Cadence. You’re welcome to stay here as long as you like.”

“We don’t have any beds left, but she can take mine. I’ll sleep on the couch.” I said.

“Actually…we can share mine.” Twilight said blushing.

I blushed a little, but smiled and nodded.

Cadence looked ta the two of us and smiled.

“Their love for one another is so strong…this is the strongest love I’ve ever felt in my life. Twilight…you’re very lucky to have such a loving human like him.” Cadence thought, but frowned a little.

(That night)

The moon rose over the lands of the town. The rest of the day, Cadence spend time with Twilight, since the two wanted to catch up a little. Spike and I talked today, and I was surprised to what he told me.

(Flashback)

I left the library a few hours later, allowing the two mares to catch up. I decided to work on my training, and my chakra control.

I was out in the fields, practicing my elemental charka. I even worked on my fire form, since there maybe a chance I have to use it again. I summoned a few clones so I can spar with them while I was in my fire form. They proved to be a challenge, since they used the other elements, especially water. It was a tough battle, but I won the match.

I slumped to the ground, regaining my breath, while my fire form cancelled.

“Your progress in using your fire form is improving greatly Daniel. I’m impressed.” Kasai said in my mind.

“Thanks, but I can’t stop here. I have to keep pushing myself to my limits to get stronger. That dragon I spoke to said a threat will be coming and I have to be ready.” I said to the fire dragon.

“Good. I also know your dark Chakra has gotten a little stronger the last time it was unleashed.”

I frowned. “A little. It may have improved since after Cadence explained what Shining did to her. I’m still pretty damn mad at him.” I growled.

“I know. It’s still surprising he would do this.”

“I hear that.”

“Anyway, you better start your training on your dark powers. You said you didn’t want to lose control over your body again if you give in to your rage.”

I nodded. “Right.”

I sat down and started meditating, focusing within my dark powers. I felt the same dark energy from before, and a dark aura formed around me. Already, I felt myself getting stronger, and I was starting to lose control of my mind a little.

“Control the Darkness…never give into it.” I thought grunting.

As I continued trying to control the darkness, images from my dark past surfaced, and even the time when Boulder crush and his buds started…no…No…I can’t!

I gasped and opened my eyes, and already, I had tears in my eyes. I wiped them away, and I saw the dark aura still surrounding me. I clenched my fists, and I still felt my body becoming stronger. However, this darkness still felt very weak.

It didn’t feel the same as before the time it was awakened. I still must be at the first stage of controlling it. not a lot, but at least its a first step. I got up and calmed myself, with the aura vanishing.

“Hey Daniel.”

I turned and saw Spike a few feet away from me.


“Oh, Spike. How long have you stand there for?” I asked.


“A few minutes. I didn’t want to disturb your training. I got a little scared when that black aura surrounded you.” Spike said.


“Oh, sorry. I was practicing to control my dark chakra. After what happened form before, I don’t want to go through the same thing again.” I explained frowning a little.


Spike smiled a little. “I know you’ll control it one day.”

I smiled back. “Thanks. So, I’m sure you came out here to talk right?”

He nodded. “Yeah.”

“Sit down while we talk.” I said and sat at the small cliff near us.

He nodded and sat next to me.

“So, what is it you wanted to talk to me about?” I asked the drake.

“Well…do you think I’m nothing?”

I was shocked my his question, but answered, “No of course not Spike. Why would you ask me something like that?”


Spike sighed sadly. “Well…I’ve been with Twilight ever since I hatched. She raised me, and I looked up to her like…she was my mother.”

I stood silent while he continued.

“Those few years were everything to me. We did so much together in Canterlot…but…”

“But what?”

“Ever since we came to ponyville…things changed. Twilight and I don’t spend a lot of time like we used to. She was so focused on her lessons on friendship. Little by little…I was becoming an outsider to her, and the others.”

My eyes widened in shock, hearing something like this, but Spike continued.

“Even though I enjoy helping others out with their jobs and so forth…I’m beginning to realize if that’s what they all think about me. Just somepony who does their work.”

“Spike…” I muttered.

“That’s not even the worse of it. It feels like…I’ve been abused.”

I gasped in shock. “W-what?”

“One time during an Iron Hoof contest, Rainbow and Applejack used me as a ginny pig to tie up and throw me around. Rarity uses me to be her pincushion…even though I enjoyed it. Rainbow and Pinkie Pie prank me so many times, I lost count…they would sometimes take their pranks to far. Rainbow says I'm nothing but a baby sometimes and that I need to get tough.”

My teeth were baring and my fists clenched, but it didn’t stop there, as he continued.

“There was this one time during winter wrap up…they dunked me in a frozen pond, and I was inside of an ice cube.”

“WHAT!?” I shouted, making him flinch. I realized what I did and sighed. “Sorry.”

“It’s okay.” I heard him sniffle ever so softly, “They knew I was cold blooded, but they all just stood there and laughed at me. Not only that, I always have to stay at the library while they all go on their adventures. Hell, I even had to stay behind on Twilight’s birthday.”

I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. Everything they did to him was…completely unacceptable. How can they all just leave Spike behind!? Twilight and the others should know that Spike is part of them as well. How can they all be stupid!?

“Have you told Twilight about this?” I asked, trying to keep my anger from bursting again.

“I tried. Many times, but no matter how hard I try to tell her, she would leave at the very last minute, leaving me behind again, stuck in the library.” He said, while a lone tear dripped from his cheek.

I felt so bad for him, going through something like this. This situation he’s in is far worse that what I thought it would be. How in the hell can I not see this?

“But…” He looked up at me and smiled a little, “Ever since you came…I felt a little bit better, now that I have somepony to talk to.”

I sighed. “Spike…I’m so sorry for not seeing this. And…I haven’t been focused a lot on you as well. Can you ever forgive me?”

Spike smiled and hugged me. “I already have.”

I smiled and hugged him back. I felt better that he has forgiven me. I want to make this right for him. I broke the hug and smiled at him.


“Spike, would you like to spend time with me and Pipsqueak today?”

“R-really?” He asked shocked.


I smiled and nodded. “Of course. I see you like you’re my brother. You and Pipsqueak are everything to me.”

He smiled and nodded. “Yes. Yes I would love to spend time with you and Pipsqueak.”

I smiled. “Great. Come on. Let’s pick him up and we’ll go to Sugarcube corner, and to the park.”

He nodded with a smile. “Okay.”

I got up and we left the field, but not until Spike asked me one last question.


“Hey Daniel?”

“Yeah?”

“If it’s possible…I want to get stronger. Do you think you can train me?”

I was little surprised by his question, but I can see the determination and fire burning in his eyes. I smiled and nodded.

“Yeah. We’ll train together, but let’s keep this our little secret.”

He nodded in approval. “Alright.”

(Flashback End)

Pipsqueak and I had a great time with Spike. I’ve never seen him smile like that before. He was so happy to have spend time with us. I just hope Twilight and the others know what they did to him soon.

I rose up from the bed, not feeling tired. I realized Cadence was not in her bed. I got up and saw the balcony door opened. I headed for the balcony and saw Cadence looking up at the stars.

“What should I do? Should I try to make things right, or just leave him for good?” She asked herself.

“That’s a question all couples would say.” I answered, making her flinch and turn around quickly.

“Oh. Daniel, you scared me.” She said breathing.

“Sorry.”

Can’t sleep either?”

“No. You?”

She shook her head. “I’m struggling to what I should do with Shining.”

I walked next to her and leaned against the railing, watching the starts shine.

“Daniel?”

“Hmm?”

“If your wife cheated on you…what would you do?” She asked.


“Well…if that ever happens to me, I would be furious with my wife. They way I see it, I would leave her to take a breather, and try to think it through.” I explained.

How do human handle situations like this?” She asked.

“Couples back on Earth would try to make things right with each other. They would end up back together, but there would be a time the cheater would cheat again on his or her lover.”


“W…why would they do that?” She asked shocked.

“I guess in a way…Humans would just live up to the pleasure of sex…instead of being with the ones they love. Many humans are like that. They don’t care about others. They only care about fucking whoever they can get their hands on.” I growled.

“Other ways couples would handle this, is they get a divorce and go their separate ways, or worse, the cheated would kill the cheater.”

She gasped. “Oh my Celetsia.”

“I know. Some humans would do that to get their revenge on those who go behind their backs.” I explained, “But if I ever go through something like this, I would take some time to myself, talk to my friends or family, get their opinions on what I should do, and then after taking some time to think, I would talk to my wife and try to work things out. If things do work out, we would get back together. If not, we go our ways and find someone else.” I explained.

“Do…do you think it’s best that I leave Shining?” She asked.

“That decision is up to you Cadence, but I’ll tell you this,” I placed my hands on her shoulders, making her look up into my eyes, “Follow your heart to what you think is right. It will guide you to the right path you need to take.”


She looked at me in amazement. Then she smiled and hugged me.

“Thank you Daniel.” She whispered.

I smiled and hugged her back. “Anytime.”

We stayed like this for a bit, and we broke our hug, smiling at each other.


“Well, goodnight Cadence.” I said leaving the balcony.

“Goodnight Daniel.” She said back.

(Cadence POV)

I stood there at the balcony for a bit, thinking over what Daniel told me. I guess Rabu was right about him. He understood me, he helped me understand. The warmth of his hugs, his gentle voice,his caring heart…he’s the sweetest human I’ve ever met. Tears of happiness fell and I didn’t know a blush on my cheeks.

“Daniel…thank you.” I whispered, and then looked up at the moon one last time, before I went back inside and went to sleep.

(Netherrealm)

Little did they know, the being form the Netherrealm was watching them through the mirror of Shadows.

“Interesting…” The being said. He traced his sights on the dragon sleeping. “The stallion wouldn’t be any use to me, but…that dragon might. I can sense a very faint darkness within him. His hatred to the ponies is locked deep in him.”

Then, his servant came out of the shadows and bowed.

“My Lord.” He greeted.

“Is there something you need Kuro?” He asked.

“I have a plan for the dragon. One that will make the ponies and that human shake in their bones.”

He smirked. “I’m listening.”

Kuro whispered in his ear, telling him his plan. The beings eyes widened, and a wide smirk formed.

“Yes. That plan is perfect.”

“I’ll prepare at once.”

“No.” He said stopping him. “Have patience my loyal second in command. When the timing is right, that when you’ll strike.”

“Under your command my lord. I’ll wait.” He sank in the shadows again, while the being looked back at the group sleeping.

“Hmhmhmhm. Soon, you’ll all tremble before me. I’ll be sure to finish what I’ve started. Hehehehe.”
