Shadows Consume what Fire Cleanses

Kalib opened his eyes slowly and pressed his hooves against his head, groaning loudly.
"Oh shut the fuck up dude." A mare told him from where she sat in a chair a few feet away.
The mare, a Pegasus; with cream body and gold wings with black tips just looked at him from her book.
"Who the hell are you?" Kalib asked her.
"The name is Aminon, I've surprised the princesses let you go after you broke some of Sky's ribs." Aminon replied.
"They know if I lose it it's for a good reason." Kalib replied. "Aminon, I read that in a report somewhere."
"I'm the newest recruit you dumb ass." Aminon replied.
"Watch your damn tongue." Kalib replied.
"You aren't the boss of me you ugly bastard." Aminon told him.
"You are a bitch, you know that right?" Kalib asked her as he rolled out his bed.
"Where are you going?" Aminon asked him.
"Where you think?" Kalib asked her. "I'm going to talk to Celestia and Luna."
"They told me not to let you out of my sight." Aminon told him as she stepped between him and the door.
Aminon felt herself get picked up and moved by a strong source of magic and she was gently placed a few paces aside from the door. Before he opened the door he looked at her.
"What?" Aminon asked him.
"You said they told you to an eye on me correct?" Kalib asked her.
"Yeah, so?" Aminon asked him.

"Come on then, I have to go talk to them." Kalib replied.

Aminon watch as Kalib talked to Celestia and Luna and felt her stomach drop as their expressions dropped. As he walked back over to her she analyzed his body posture and noted how tense he was.
"What's going on?" Aminon asked him.
"Since you'll be my partner for awhile you might as well know." Kalib told her. "Princess Twilight was attacked yesterday and I think I know who did it I just need to be sure."
"Where do we need to go?" Aminon asked him.
"We need to go to the Krypt so that he can get his armor and weapons." Sky told her as he walked into the room.
Kalib nodded before turning around and walking out of the room. Aminon sighed as she followed him, leaving Sky in the room with the princesses.
"Are you going with them?" Celestia asked him.
"He can handle himself." Sky replied.

"We're more worried about them killing each other." Luna replied.

Aminon watched as Kalib walked slowly down the stairs with a torch a few feet in front of him.
"So what are we going again?" Aminon asked him.
"The Krypt, it's where our armor is kept." Kalib replied.
"What makes you so fucking special?" Aminon asked him.
"Language." Kalib told her.
"Shut the hell up." Aminon told him.
"Love you too." Kalib replied.
"Like I said shut up before I shove your tail up your ass." Aminon replied.
"Harsh, now shut up the Krypt Keeper is close." Kalib told her.
"What the hell is the Krypt Keeper?" Aminon asked him.
"You'll see." Kalib replied as they felt the ground level out.
There was a low hiss and Aminon tensed up as the lights went out.
"What the hell was that?" Aminon asked him.
"The Chimerian, stay close to me." Kalib replied as his good eye started to glow in the dark slightly.
He kept a hoof on her shoulder and urged her forward slowly. A pile of crates toppled over and Kalib pushed Aminon out of the way before they fell on top of him. Aminon felt a weight slam into her side cracking her armor and throwing her into the wall next to her. The lights blazed back on and when she saw the faceless and figureless mass of shadows and she looked over to the pile of boxes that cover Kalib and she felt a primal rage bubble up in her stomach. Before she could think anything through she rushed forward but as she touched the shadows she felt her body grow ice cold and her vision went dark. Suddenly she was thrown out onto the cold stone of the Krypt floor felt a viscous black liquid sticking to her body, mane, and tail. She looked at Kalib who had a huge spear of wood buried in his shoulder. What actually freaked he out was the fact that he was breathing pure white fire at the monster and it was actually receding into one of the corners.
"Kalib?" Aminon whispered as she looked at his front hooves which were covered in the same gunk.
As soon as the monster was in the corner Kalib took in another deep breath and this time his fire was a deep red that ripped through the monster. When it was gone Kalib walked over Aminon and lifted her onto his back.
"I can walk god dammit." Aminon told him.
"Shut it, that wasn't the Chimerian." Kalib replied. "It's much worse."
"What was it then?" Aminon asked him.
"It was a fucking Soul Deviant." Kalib replied as he stopped at a solid metal door.
He placed a hoof on the door on shoved it open to reveal a few sets of pure white armor with gold trim and a gold insignia of a K on the breast plate.
"Who are you, or better yet what are you?" Aminon asked him.
"I'm an Imperial Guard." Kalib replied a he laid Aminon against one of the walls.
He took a deep breath and Aminon felt the tar being lifted from her and she watched as it was pulled into Kalib's body. His body darkened for a minute before he returned to normal and then he pulled on his armor and grabbed his swords.
"You aren't normal." Aminon told him.
"In this world now a days, who is?" Kalib asked her.
"You have a point but you're further in shit town." Aminon replied. "So one more time what are you?"
"I'm a demon hybrid." Kalib replied. "This is our little secret."
"Everyone has their secrets and darker sides, but you're still a bitch to me." Aminon told him.
