                              SOMBRA

       After seeing the purple ponie's reaction I knew something was amiss, after all the likelihood of two ponies having a wide eyed runaway reaction was unfortunately, low. Pinkie's comment only confirmed that fact, saying "Huh you'd think she of all people wouldn't do that, she's usually the cool headed one." I lowered my head in sadness, if that alicorn is the smart one, and she realized who I was I would be annihilated! I started to walk out, but then I stumbled opun a small yellow pony, seemingly fainted. I sighed wondering what to do nobody seemed to notice her, grunting as I picked her up I walked out the door wondering what happened to her, maybe Pinkie scared her out of her wits like she did to me.

       A sudden scream pierced the silence along with a lot of "who ,what ,where?" As the yellow pegasus jumped off my back.

      "Calm down little pony, you were knocked out, what happened to you"

       She replied quietly  "just a lot of people in my space so I tried to fly up... but I flew up a bit too fast and hit the roof."

      " so what is your name, I can't just call you pony can I?"

      "My name is Fluttershy. " she said about as loud as mouse, but at least I could hear her.

      "Can you head back to your house on your own our do you need a bodygaurd to make sure no roofs attack you?" Nodding a solemn yes she started walking away. Well, that put me back into a partying mood, nothing like a good ol saving to get you in the mood for extra spicy muffins. As I walked I felt like somepony was watching me, slowly I turned my head behind me to see a the same purple alicorn staring at me that had ran away after seeing me. "Hhhheeeeeyyyyyyy, how's it going with you."

       "Cut the act, I know it's you." The alicorn said bluntly  as she rose into the air, preparing what looked liked a laser, prepared to destroy me for probably good this time. My mind locked into overdrive, what to do what to do! If I tried to quick fire a laser there would be a small chance to incapicitate her, but if I put up a shield I could probably block the laser and teleport out, shield it is. I threw up a shield and looked up at the alicorn and realized she was  setting it to disentegrate with a side of deep fry, no amount of magic I had could block that, should've gone with the quick laser. I grimanced and looked away, so much for my plan. I waited for the inevitable to come, and waited, and waited, I thought "what is she trying to do, blow up the town with me? I could've shot dozens of lasers by now I opened my eyes to see what happened and saw the alicorn... smiling at me. I put down my shield and asked "so... you're not to kill me?"

           She laughed  for a bit before saying "doesn't look like it, unless of course, you wanna admit to being evil." So what's your story err..."

           "Rei." And what do you mean by story."

           "How you got the same magical field enimating from you as Sombra"

           Of course! My magical signature, how could I have been so stupid! Any magically inclined pony would have recognized it would have freaked. My only lifeline was the fact that my alias lined up with what I was going to say. "I was an apprentice to Sombra, and because of my training my magic soon grew to resemble his."

           "Neat! Wow... that takes so much stress of me." Welcome to Ponyville Rei, any questions?

           "Yes, atually I have one... what was with the beam thingie, and why did you not desintegrate me on the spot?"

            "It's simple really, when I rose to attack you I left a small opening so that if you were Sombra you would have probably taken it and shot me, but the laser was a shield spell, waiting to be released."

            What luck! If I had used my laser it would have been over for me, but I just have to say this." Thats pretty unpredictable can be passed through with some foresight."

            "Yes it is, and I just want to say," looking at me with the face she had right before she was about to destroy me. "If I find that you have ANY evil intentions I will personally wipe you off the map!"

            I gulped.

            "Anyways, welcome to Ponyville." She was back in the happy mood again. "Wanna go back to the party?"  I nodded quickly and started walking to the castle.

             As we came to the castle It reminded me to ask "who owns this castle" I asked the alicorn

            "I do" and I burst out laughing

            "yeah right and I suppose your friends with the lord of chaos" I retorted, thinking myself clever "and I'm Starswirl the bearded."

           "Dunno about you being Starswirl but I am friends with Discord." She said in the. Most straight faced... face I've seen ever Starswirl challenged me to a duel while I still had my amulet on and tied, still laughing in my nightmares.

           "Wait, you're serious about owning this castle? "

           "And also about being friends the lord of chaos. "

           As if on cue the primordal lord of chaos himself appeared announcing his presence with a trumpet while I stared open mouthed. Few things could shock me but this, this was one of the few things that shocked me. "Ah so who is it that was talking about me, you were making me sneeze hysterically." Hey what's with the long face, never seen a draqoniquis before?" Hey Twilight, what's with him?" He seems to be broken."

         "he's just a bit shocked, after all he's didn't exactly expect you or anything." He looked at me for a few seconds then shrugged and dissappeared, leaving only me and Twilight standing there.

         To save face I said "well... erm... wanna eat some extra spicy cupcakes?" She laughed and  started walking to the castle
