Life was peaceful, kind and enjoyable, the ponies playing and cheering as the four Princess ruled over their own kingdoms. Princess Mi Amore Cadenza of the Crystal Empire, Princess Twilight of Friendship, Princess Celestia of the Day and Luna of the Night. Of course, harmony was in order and chaos was not a speck to be seen. Over the years they grown older and wiser, learning new ways to keep peace and defeating enemies in their midst. But of course peace doesn't last long when a new threat decides to seep through the kingdom grounds.
First it started with creatures coming out from the Everfree forest and into the open, normally this wouldn't last long but soon it kept getting worse and worse when eventually the Obalocks came.Those vicious creatures tore up the whole place, destroying everything in their path and creating a sea of death wherever they fled. Nothing could be worse than those nasty beings, ponies and dragons themselves forced to flee under their homes, into their basement. Hopefully the Obalocks won't find you in the basement and pronounce the land unoccupied. And if you didn't have a basement... Well... Lets just hope your hooves can run faster than those Obalocks can see you.
The name isn't official as well, the creatures are so mysterious and dangerous that when their name is spoken they will appear to you. Of course it isn't proven but once the two Princess Sisters claimed it to be, all of Equestria went into a panic.
Eventually the Obalocks began to arrive into Ponyvile, the place where the Princess of Friendship lives. Hearing of the news, she recruited her friends to take up the dark and evil challenge. So they went out, trying to cover every spot they could, cleaning the Obalocks of their dreaded hate and evil. A few weeks later they went missing.
The Princess of the Crystal Empire, Princess Mi Amore Cadenza, decided to step into the action and find her sister-in-law and her friends, leaving her husband with their daughter. Soon she was pronounced missing.
Now it was only the Princesses. The two sisters, fearful of the evil knew they could conquer it through their magic. They soon embarked on the journey, promising to return when the harmony has returned. Few more weeks passed when they disappeared as well.
What kind of evil could this be...? Could it be the return of Sombra? Terik? Nopony nor dragon knew of the matter.
The sky turned dark as clouds covered both the sun and the moon as no light could be see. Only thunder that roared through the sky and lighting the shined the darkened landscape.
Now it’s only us. The ones who have to fend for themselves. The Exorcists.

Originally I was gonna post it on Deviantart but I don't think people would read it so decided to write it on Google Drive and post it here. So yeah, sorry if things are off, I haven't been feeling very well lately.
"Freaking..." Exopone growled as she tossed her ink and feather onto the ground in anger. She was her grumpy as usual, her anger was ravenous and dangerous, the other ponies fearing her as she walked around in the small shelter village they called home for now as the Obalocks are still inhabiting the city. Her anger eventually attracted one of her companions to the door.
"Um... Exo.... Are you okay...?" The Unicorn asked, her sinister eyes soft and worried as she looked at the purple Pegasus.
"Yes Black Faith. I am fine just... Another...." Exopone couldn't continue any longer as she realized Black Faith spoke her name out, "What I say about calling me by my first name..." She gave a growl as she faced the young mare.
Black Faith gave a sigh, "Sorry sir Exopone..." She snorted, looking at the ground annoyed, wishing she could use her powers on the young Exorcist, but of course she couldn't.
"Just what are you doing here anyways.... I thought you were playing with Eric and Pi... Or one of the foals of the matter..." Exopone looked back at Black Faith and almost began to growl, wondering why she was more concerned about herself (Exo) than of the others. She didn't like to empathy ponies had towards her, especially Black Faith, her being a halfa of a Obalock.
"I was just worried about you that's all... Can't I worry anymore...? Or must I leave you behind every time we come across a gang of Obalocks?" She seemed annoyed at Exopone's grumpiness.
"Yes! Is it that complicated to leave and run for yourself. Your selfishness will save you out there in battle. Even if you are part Obalock, you won't be able to defeat them without the Light's power!" Exopone growled, slamming her hoof on the table in anger, even more angry than she usually is.
Black Faith flattened her ears in defense and sadness. She bent her neck down a little, "O-Okay..." She whimpered as she exited the room. The last thing she wanted to be called was useless and a complete nobody. Now I guess faith would catch up to her.
Exopone didn't like to yell but if she had to prove her point she would. She ignored every emotion ponies would have towards her, knowing its the only way to fight the vicious Obalocks.

"What are we going to do...?" Sainted asked sadly, his cross eyes trying to look from too and fro as the ponies around him began to think.
“We can't stay here any longer, eventually they will find us and we will become those vicious zombies!" Replanca said a bit frightened but also trying to hide a small giggle in the back of her throat.
"Come on Replanca we're serious! We have to find a new place quickly!" Feyace said a bit in a panic but trying to be brave as the small Vrontii stayed shivering in the corner, "Just look at Vrontii! It seems like his sanity is gonna shatter any time soon." He gave a snort.
"S-Sanited d-does h-have a p-point..." Curvus said with a shy smile, his wings stiff as a bone as they lay flat against his back, "We have to f-find shelter f-fast.." He whimpered as they heard laughter from outside. Evil cruel laughter along with a scream.
"They have claimed their next victim..." Prince Night Drops said with a snort, the most calmest expression on his face as he looked at the group, his dark grey mane, flowing in the breeze as they could smell death from the outside.
"Well what are we waiting for? Let’s get out there!" Rongo said as she got onto her hooves and almost ran to the outside before getting her tail yanked by her fellow companions, "What are you doing? We have to find out parents!" She growled as she tried to get out of the ponies' grip.
"Rongo, can't you understand we can't just run out there! They will get us then find out who we really are and than we will be dead! Never to hear from again! We have to stay inside!" Feyace yelled before it became all quiet.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The sounds of hooves and claws banged at the boarded up front door.
The small foals felt horror run through their blood as they stood absolutely still not wanting to realize the truth that had come upon them.
They have been found.

Second part, yeah.
“Come out come out wherever you are little ponies,” The mockery of the Obalocks chanted as they continued to bang on the door.
“Never! We will never let you take us!” Prince Night Drops
spoke, brave yet frightened, “We will stand strong until we find our parents!” He gave a snort as he stood in front of his friends and held his place in front of the door.
“Well it seems we can’t defeat them…” The second Obalock said as the foals looked at each other in happiness before the door was kicked out of place, the nails and boards breaking apart as the foals flew back, the Obalocks throwing them against a wall, “Haha you really believed that!? My my, we’re gonna have a little fun no?” The first one laughed evilly as the second began to approach them.
The foals hugged each other as they awaited their fate, “I guess this is it… Glad to be your friends everyone… Glad we could spend out list time with each other…” Feyace said as they waited for the Obalock to attack.
The Obalock stood completely still, “Whats wrong with you!” The first said, standing in front of him to see what was wrong. The Obalock’s eyes were still, the pupils dilated as he began to cough violently. He fell to the ground to only see a spear lodged inside his back, “Who in the name of…” The first looked out the window too only see a purple Pegasus crash from the inside.
“FAITH! CLEAR A PATH FOR US!” The Pegasus yelled as she grabbed her spear out of the Obalock and slammed it into the second.
“Yes sir Exopone!” Black Faith said, her hypnotic eyes looking caring and harmless as she dashed towards the other Obalocks.
“You wretched exorcists… You’re no match for us, just give up now and be happy to still live and work for Master…” The first Obalock laughed as the second laid dead on the ground. The foals continued to hug each other, not wanting to see them as they could only hear what was about to happen.
The Pegasus, her grumpy as usual, dug the spear deeper into the Obalock, “As long as I live… I will protect the innocent! Help the poor! And never obey to the commands of your Master…” She hissed as she chanted a unknown language and the Obalocks turned to dust. She stood with her spear, panting on the ground as the foals looked up at her. Prince Night Drops raced towards her, frightened yet wondering if the unknown mare was okay.
“Umm miss… Are you okay…?” Prince Night Drops asked as he got no response from her, only the glare of her orange eyes, “Umm what’s your name…?” He asked curiously again, still cautious of her as the dust covered parts of her body.
“Exopone. Sir Exo.” She said, knowing very well that the title of ‘sir’ referred to the stallions and not the mares. She soon fainted from exhaustion as the foals didn’t know what to do. They heard explosions from outside and the yelling of ponies and Obalocks as they clashed together in the fight.
“Oh no oh no oh no, what are we going to do!” Replanca said a bit scared for her life as she wondered what was next to come.
“Calm down Replanca, she gave us a chance to escape so we must take the chance,” Rongo said as she charged out the front door and into the unknown.
“Wait!” Curvus struggled to say through her shy voice as she looked back at Exo, “We can’t just leave her here, alone and defenseless,” She told Night as he was the only one who waited. He gave a nod to her and with his magic put the light and very thin Pegasus on his back.
As the foals dashed outside they saw what could imagine to be what a battlefield would look like. Obalocks and ponies, fighting to the death as they all took on a power blow to one another. Black Faith was able to see the foals and rushed through the battling ponies, “Oh thank Celestia you’re safe. Come on we have to escape while we can to the Cabins,” She said as she looked at the foals and almost began to run before one of them stopped her.
“Wait… What about everyone else! We can’t just leave them, what if they get hurt!” Vrontii asked a little depressed, knowing they will have to leave the other Exorcists with the evil Obalocks.
“They will be fine, they have been trained to go in this type of battles,” Black Faith said a bit nervous as a Obalock leaped from behind but in swift movement, Exopone woke up and sliced the creature in two, her chanting continued as it turned into dust like the ones before.
“Leave me, I’ll be fine. You guys must go before anybody else gets hurt,” Exo said, her eyes stern and heartless, like her soul was a Obalock itself. The foals had no choice but to obey her cold eyes as Black Faith ran with them back into the forest. They heard a scream in the background to only see Exopone stabbed from the back with three claws, each one piercing her fur/skin, reappearing on the other side of her body.
“NO!” Night Drops said as he witnessed the small Pegasus fall to the ground, her wings crumpled and folded as Black Faith, hiding the tears in her eyes grabbed the foals and continued running from the gruesome sight.
As they made their way back to the shelter village, Night Drops just couldn’t believe what he had witness. The young, yet older mare, stabbed… Dead… And if not than taken to be a slave of the Obalocks’ Master. “Don’t worry Prince Night Drops… I know Exopone very well, she would never lose that easily to a battle,” Black Faith gave a confident smile, even if her eyes were watery of tears that she tried to hide it from the young Prince.
“But I saw her… She’s… Dead….” Night Drops spoke out, still sadden by the memory as the other foals hugged each other knowing very well that one of the highest Exorcists was killed on this day.

Sorry haven't been around, I was busy catching up on work on DeviantART and had to finish a few things along with getting through some Art Blocks and Writers block.
But I think I added to much information in one piece, oh well.
