Chapters It was a snowy day at the Crystal Empire, there is talk of something up in the mountains and that somepony should go there to see what is up there. A group of ponies that were sent by Princess Cadence, left the empire to investigate the disturbance. They were a small group of unicorns, Mountain Climber, Investo Maker, and Jenny Pudo.
"I can't wait to see what kind of thing is up in the mountains. It could be gold! Or Jewels! Or-" Jenny Pudo interrupted Investo before he could finish his sentence.
"Don't go out of control or you'll get the ruby madness. " she said with a smirk on her face.
The three ponies gave out a good laugh as they continued walking up the mountain.
After an hour of walking up the mountain, they finally made it to the mouth of the cave. Mountain Climber reached into his satchel to grab their flashlight helmets. He used his magic to levitate the helmets, giving the other two ponies and himself a helmet to wear. They turned on their lights and started their walk into the cave.
As they continued to walk through the cave, they were starting to get an eerie feeling that something was watching them.
"This cave is giving me the creeps." said Investo as he continued walking shakily.
Mountain Climber stopped as he looked with surprise. The other two ponies stopped as they caught up with Mountain Climber. It was a dead end.
"What is it? Have you found something?" said Jenny as she walked up to him.
"No." Said Mountain Climber. "Nothing, but a dead end."
"What the hell?!" said Investo in a fit of frustration. "So we came up here for nothing!?!? What a rip-off! I am now gonna-" Investo paused.
"LOOK DOWN UNDER YOUR HOOVES, MOUNTAIN!!" shouted Investo.
Mountain Climber looked down. He saw three pointed claws sticking out of the ice. Mountain Climber jumped back with surprise.
"It's…It's alive." she said with fear in her voice.
Something was definitely moving in the ice. The unknown being twitched through its ice barrier as if it were a newborn dragon coming out its egg. The ice began to crack. The next crack had a giant shard that flung past them. Then suddenly, the ground started to crack from whatever force that was coming from the unknown entity's icy prison. The mountain started to rumble.
The three unicorns looked around with fear and confusion as part of the cave blew up. More explosions came from the cave. The three stood close together back to back. Jenny looked up to notice that pieces of debris and snow falling from the top of the cave.
"Run for it!!" screamed Jenny as she and her partners ran to a safer area of the cave.
"AHHHHHHHHHH!!" shouted Investo as tons of debris and snow fell over him.
Jenny dodged the falling debris in time and made it to a safe part of the cave. The debris and snow made the cave too foggy to see anything in front of her. Jenny got back up on her hooves and went on a search for her partners, only to find Mountain Climber who was found half way buried under snow and debris. She rushed over to him to see if her partner was still breathing.
"Are you OK?" she said with curiosity. Mountain Climber woke up and looked at her with half opened eyes.
"Yeah. I'll live." He replied with a bit of pain in his voice.
She began to pull him out of the debris. As he was finally pulled out, she noticed that his leg was bleeding. The blood had poured down his grey fur which was starting to make jenny feel a bit nauseous.
"Are you sure you're gonna be ok?" she asked in case he had a different reply from before.
"nnnggghhh! It hurts a lot." he said with a more painful tone.
"Here, I have some bandages."
Jenny went through her satchel to look for bandages. She finally found a roll of bandages which she kept in case of emergencies. She began to use her magic to tie up his wound. She applied pressure to his wound hoping to stop the bleeding. She felt a pulse from his leg. She thought that the pressure may have been working. She then looked up at Mountain Climber, who cocked an eyebrow as he looked around the foggy cave.
"Where's Investo?"
Jenny looked around the cave to see if there were any figures visible through the fog.
"There's no sign of Investo." said Jenny as she continued to look around the cave.
Mountain Climber cocked an eyebrow. "Huh?"
Mountain Climber could see a dark figure in the fog, but couldn't see the details of it. Jenny looked towards the same the direction that Mountain Climber was staring. Her flashlight helmet caught a glimpse of features of the figure. It had red eyes as if it were rabid. The face had scales and turtle-like features. The being looked at them with an evil grin upon its face.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!" screamed the two unicorns.
Over at the Crystal empire, ponies looked in awe as the mountain somehow shook violently. A crystal soldier hurried to the castle to inform the highnesses. He had trouble getting there because of all of the other ponies that had gathered around the empire to figure out the cause of the rumbling.
At the castle, Cadence and Shining Armor were looking at the Mountain as it rumbled violently. Cadence started to cringe.
"Sweet Celestia. What have I done. " she thought.
A crystal soldier barged through the door running quickly towards Cadence and Shinning Armor. He stopped to catch his breath before he could say anything.
"Your Highnesses! Something is going on at the Mountain."
"We've noticed."said Shining Armor.
"Should we-" Cadence interrupted by raising a hoof.
"Send a search party IMMEDIATELY!!" shouted Cadence.
"Yes your Highness."
The crystal soldier saluted and quickly ran off to call a search party. Cadence started to shake and feel faint. Before she could walk, she started to fall.
"Woah there." said Shining Armor as he got her in time before she collapsed to the floor.
"Is there something wrong, Cadence?"
Cadence looked up to at still a bit shaky.
"Sweet Celestia. I may have sent those ponies to their deaths.", She said with a small and quivering voice.
"Come again?" said Shining Armor with a cocked eyebrow.
Cadence didn't reply. All she could do was to look upon the mountain where she had sent the three ponies.
The search party arrived at the scene an hour after the mountain had stopped shaking. They were now in front of the mouth of the cave that was sealed off by tons of debris and covering the entrance from the aftermath. A blue crystal soldier stood in front of them as they lined up in order.
"ATTENTION!!" shouted the blue crystal soldier as the other soldiers stood still in place.
"Our orders were to search for survivors. Leave no stone unturned. Do I make myself clear?".
"SIR YES SIR!" Said the soldiers before they scattered.
They searched through the mountain for what seemed like hours, digging under the snow in search for the explorers.
"Hey! I found somthin'! " shouted a soldier.
The others gathered to see what the soldier has found. What he found was one of the flashlight helmets the explorers would've used while in the cave.
"This is one of their helmets they used while they were in the cave."
The soldier held onto the helmet as he and the others continued their search through the snowy mountain. An un-crystalized soldier walked further from the search party only to find a pair of abnormal footprints.
"Hey! Come over here! I found mysterious tracks. They don't look like hoof prints!"
The soldiers ran towards his direction to see what he was talking about. They looked in awe as they stared at the unworldly footprints. The footprints had a five clawed-like foot structure and were buried deep within the snow. This thing must have been big. A purple crystalized soldier pointed a hoof.
"Say…Is that…..Blood ?" he said as his eyes grew wide as dinner plates.
The soldiers looked at what is believed to be blood. They continued following the trail to find the source. The further they go, the footprints seemed to disappear from the falling snow. They stopped at the last pair of footprints.
"Sweet Celestia. What could this thing be?" said a soldier.
The wind began to pick up. It was blowing so hard that it could send a filly flying. One of the soldier's helmets went flying towards where the wind was blowing.
"We gotta go back!" said the blue crystalized soldier.
The soldiers began to head back towards the castle through the blizzard of the mountain. Little did they know that something was watching them the moment they stepped hoof around the mountain. It's red eyes looked down upon them as they headed down the mountain. It grinned menacingly as it turned around to go to find a spot where it could call home. Wherever it went, remained a mystery.
The soldiers walked towards Cadence with frowns upon their faces. A soldier stepped forward. He reached around his satchel and pulled out a helmet of one of the explorers. She levitated the helmet to get a closer look. She started to quiver.
"There was nopony to be found, your highness." said a soldier.
She stared down at floor for about twenty seconds, then looked back up to the soldier with a tear shedding out of her right eye.
"Did you find anything else?"
"Well…That's the thing…Further from the scene, we found abnormal footprints."
Cadence wiped her face then cocked an eyebrow.
"Abnormal footprints? What did they look like?"
The soldier put a hoof around his head.
"They…Didn't look pony-like."
"A dragon?" said Shining Armor.
"Possibly, but what kind of dragon would do with three innocent ponies."
"Anything else?" said Cadence.
The soldier started to get nervous. A bead of sweat came from his head to his muzzle.
"Well…We did…Find something else." The soldier went silent for about ten seconds.
Cadence cocked an eyebrow, "Well?"
The soldier couldn't speak. He was too scared to to tell.
"Come on!!! Spit it out!!" shouted Cadence out of frustration.
The soldier couldn't hold it in anymore. He finally answered.
"There was blood near one of the pairs of footprints."
Cadence's eyes went wide as dinner plates. She fell silent.
"Did you follow the tracks?" said Shining Armor.
"We followed them, but the further we went, they started to vanish from the falling snow as if they weren't there at all. Whatever it is, was walking away from the empire."
The room went silent. The other soldiers were pondering to one another about what this thing could be.
"Whatever that thing is, I hope it stays away from anypony else or my empire ." pondered Cadence.
"Your orders, your highnesses?"
Cadence got back to reality.
"You are excused for the day." said Cadence.
"Yes your highness."
The soldiers saluted and left the castle leaving Shining Armor and Cadence alone in the throne room.
For the past three hours, Shining Armor was pondering of what he and Cadence were told of the search.
"What could this thing be? It can't be Sombra. He doesn't have claws, plus, we defeated him with the crystal heart. Do you have any idea what we're dealing with Cadence?"
Cadence sat on her throne looking down sadly at the helmet of one of the explorers. Shining Armor cocked an eyebrow.
"Cadence? Are you OK?"
She didn't reply, nor looked at him.
"Cadence?"
Cadence finally looked upon Shining Armor.
"What am I gonna tell him." she said quietly with sadness in her voice.
"What was that?" said Shining Armor out of curiosity.
"One of the explorers, Jenny Pudo, has a son waiting for her in Ponyville…Now that she may be dead…How can I tell her son that?"
Cadence started shedding tears and sobbed. Shining Armor walked towards her and sat down next to her and gave her a hug.
"There, there. I know its hard to tell, but you have to tell him."
Cadence looked upon Shining Armor and sniffled.
"But he's just a colt. It'll be hard for him to grow up thinking for the rest of his life that his mother passed away when he was just a colt."
Shining Armor began to ponder. He thought of what to do with Jenny Pudo's son. He then had an idea.
"Does Mrs. Pudo have any relatives?"
"She has nopony else in her family, but her son. Her father and mother passed away a few years ago and she has no brother or sister to look after him."
"How about any close friends that are willing to adopt him? Or maybe there can be somepony we know that can look after him?"
Cadence's eyes grew. She began to make a little of a smile.
"Sweet Celestia, I never thought of that. Shiny, you are a genius."
She gave him a hug and a kiss. She got out of her throne and ran towards the gate.
"Could you stay here and look after the empire while I'm out, Shiny?" she said as she made it to the gate.
"Where are you going?"
She turned her head.
"I have an idea. I'll be back soon."

Author's Note
so how do you like it so far?
I'm not that much of a writer, but I'm willing to try my best to entertain you fanfic readers out there.
"Now class, as you see here, we can clearly see that in the bone structure of this bird, that-" Mrs. Cheerilee was about to finish her explanation just as the bell rang.
"Well class, that is all for today. Make sure you study for quiz on Tuesday. It'll be more on the bone structures of different organisms that we have been studying."
Everypony got their saddlebags as they got up from their seats and walked out of the classes to head home. One pony however, waited until everypony else left. Once they left, he got out of his seat and walked out of the room. He looked around carefully because he wanted to make sure that the bullies were not lurking around. He was afraid of the bullies because ever since he was young, these other ponies would make fun of him for being adopted. They would tease him and say that his birth parents never wanted him. All he could do was to try to defend himself and try to be brave, which caused even more problems.
Back when he was five, some older students ganged up on him after he accidentally spilled some juice on one of them. They wanted to pick a fight, but all he ever wanted was for them to accept his apology. They gave a different reply, with violence. He was bucked on the side and had two blows of hooves to the face. He was sent to the hospital after a couple of teachers came into the cafeteria and found him laying on the floor. He had a little bit of blood coming out of his mouth along with bruises and a black eye. He was in so much pain.
He came back to school two weeks later to find that the students who had beat him were expelled from school after what they had done to him.
After school, the young pony came home to tell his mother the news about the bullies being expelled. He loved his mother and she was always there for him whenever he came home from school. She was a very kind soul. Even though she was not his real mother, they were very close.
When he was at the age of fifteen, his mother had told him the story about how he came to be adopted. Fifteen years earlier, she had walked outside of her house and found him wrapped in a bundle of expensive silk. She wondered who had left the colt on her doorstep and why was he wrapped up in such expensive silk? She thought there are only a few princesses in Equestria that could afford such fabric. The silk was pink - It must be Princess Cadence. She continued to tell him that she had learned from Princess Cadence that his birth mother went missing after a mountain expedition near the Crystal Empire and it was presumed she was dead. She told him that she felt so sorry for him and that's how she became his adoptive mother. She treated him like he was her own and made him part of her family. She gave him food to eat, games to play, and all the love he could want from her.
He also loved to spend time with his new brother, Button Mash. Button Mash showed him all sorts of games and gave him tutorials so that he could play better. It was like Button was his sensei and he was the student. When he was with his family, he felt comfort. As if, they were the only friends in his life. Or so he thought. Until seven years ago, a miracle came into his life out of nowhere.
When he was in the 5th grade, he was in another conflict with a bully.
He was heading towards the cafeteria for lunch when a pony blocked his path. He was a big blue and bulky looking earth pony.
"Hey Jakira the adoptive loser." He said mockingly. "Give me your lunch. I left my lunch at home so I can't eat anything till school ends."
Jakira didn't want to give it up. The bulky bully was starting to get pissed.
"Look, you can hand me the lunch and I won't break every bone in your body."
"Just go away Drake. I want to eat my lunch in peace." said Jakira as he try to slip past him.
Drake got Jakira by the hoof and pushed him towards the lockers. He was seriously more pissed off than before.
"I'm giving you my final warning. Give me the lunch and you won't end up in the hospital."
"No."
"Fine! You asked for it!"
Before Drake could even punch him, a voice from further down the hall called out his name.
"Drake!" shouted the pony from further away.
Jakira and Drake looked at the source. The pony started walking towards their direction. His fur was dark yellow. He had blue eyes as if the ocean was trapped in his eyes. His hair was light blonde which was so long it covered a bit of his horn. He walked towards them without any fear. Jakira was surprised to see how calm he was as he got closer to them.
"What do you want? Can't you se I'm busy with this twerp?!" shouted Drake.
"Leave him be." said the yellow pony. "If you lay a hoof on this innocent, then you will pay the consequences."
The expression he made when he said that really creeped out Jakira. He had a look as if he were about to kill Drake.
"Why don't you mind your own business!!!" shouted Drake as he let go of Jakira and charged at the yellow pony.
The yellow pony jumped over him with amazing skill. Jakira's mouth dropped when he saw how quick and far he jumped over Drake. Drake turned around and went for another charge. This time was different, the yellow pony made a stance as if he were about to kick a soccer ball. When Drake got close enough, the yellow pony kicked him across the face. Drake slammed against one of the lockers. Drake was bleeding from the mouth. A couple of teeth were missing. He stood up and staggered towards the yellow pony as if he wasn't going to give up. He held up a shaking hoof and collapsed onto the floor. The yellow pony got close to his ear.
"If I ever see you messing with anypony else, the next time I see you, you will feel more pain than the pain you are feeling now." he whispered.
Drake got up on his hooves and ran away limping further away down the hall.
The yellow pony walked towards Jakira and handed him a hoof.
"Are you hurt?" he said to Jakira as he helped him get to his hooves.
"No. not at all." said Jakira. "How did you learn to do what you did at Drake?"
"I take martial arts class." replied the yellow pony. "My name is Poyo Asuka. I just moved here a few days ago. What's yours?"
"My name is Jakira. I've lived here since I was a colt."
"So Jakira, have you ever been bullied like that before?"
"I've had a couple of fights with bullies while growing up. They made fun of me for being adopted or they would try and take my stuff."
"Wow. Sounds like you have quite the bully problem." said Poyo with astonishment.
"Jakira, if there is anypony else that picks on you for being different, come find me. I'll give them a lesson they'll never forget."
"That's very kind of you Poyo…Thanks."
Poyo gave him a smile as Jakira gave a smile back.
"So Jakira, you want to hang out with me during lunch?"
"Sure."
Jakira never knew that there could be somepony else out there that was really protective. Jakira and Poyo started to hang out more and more throughout the years. Poyo wasn't just a body guard to him, he was a friend. A friend willing to risk his own life for the sake of others.
Jakira went through his locker to get a couple of things before he left the school.
As he was halfway towards the schools front doors, Mrs. Cheerilee caught up to him. She handed him a bag that had a couple of carrots inside.
"Jakira Pudo. Today's your day to go and feed the rabbits. Head behind the school and give the rabbits carrots to munch on, please."
Jakira took the bag and gave Mrs. Cheerilee a smile.
"Sure thing, Mrs. Cheerilee."
Mrs. Cheerilee returned the smile and walked back to her classroom.
As Jakira walked through the hallway, he began to wonder where Poyo was. He had not been to school for the past three days.
As he was close to the back door to the backyard where the rabbits are, somepony called out his name.
"Well, well, well. If it isn't the adoptive loser of Mrs. Mash." said a familiar feminine voice.
Jakira turned around to notice Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon giving him a smug look upon their faces. Jakira knew this was going to be trouble when it came to these two. He heard a lot about them. He heard conversations that these two always think they are superior to everypony else.
"Look, I don't know what you want, but could you please leave me alone. I need to go feed the rabbits." said Jakira as he tried to stand up for himself.
"Oh, so the loser wants to feed the bunnies? I didn't know they were asking somepony like you to feed bunnies." said Silver Spoon as she cocked an eyebrow.
"Why don't you two go bug some other pony. I don't want to be involved in your 'superior to everypony else schtick' ."
"So the loser wants to defend himself. Where is your friend? You know, your knight in shining armor?" said Diamond Tiara mockingly.
"I just don't want to be involved in conflicts like this."
"Your such a pussy! Come on Silver, let's go tease some other loser outside of school."
Both mares walked towards the front doors of the school and disappeared behind the doors.
"Bitches." thought Jakira as he turned towards the back door that was a few feet away.
Before he opened the doors, he heard another familiar voice.
"Don't let those two get you down."
Jakira turned around and saw Scootaloo. She was one of the CMC's he's been hearing about that are trying to get their cutie marks. She was also one of his classmates in science class.
She walked up to him and put a hoof on his shoulder.
"Don't let them get you down" she said again. "My friends and I have always been bullied by her since we were fillies. But because of our confidence, she can never back us down."
"Why…Thank you…For the confidence." he said with shyness.
Scootaloo smiled back and walked back towards her friends Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle. She waved a hoof back at him, as he waved back in return.
Jakira went around the backyard to look for the rabbits. Mysteriously he couldn't spot any of the rabbits around the yard. He went looking around the garden till he came to the left corner of the fence and noticed a rabbit laying down. Jakira walked towards it and noticed a bit of blood coming from it's white fur. He began to shake a bit. He put his hoof on the rabbits' body, but couldn't feel a pulse at all. He then felt a tiny paw touching on his left leg. He turned around and noticed that there was a little tiny rabbit that was scared and was coming to him for comfort. He sat down and placed the bag of carrots to the side and started to pet the poor thing.
"I'm so glad your alive, Fluffy Tail." He said in a comforting voice as he petted Fluffy Tail's fur.
"How mean. Who could've done this to your mother? Don't worry, I'm here with you."
Jakira didn't know what to do with Fluffy Tail. All he wanted to do at the moment was to comfort the little thing. As he stared at Fluffy Tail, Jakira started to get flashbacks of his past.
"Your just like me. Losing your mother at such a young age. I hardly remember my mother just because I was just a colt."
He gave the poor little rabbit a hug and gently levitated him into his saddlebag which had a pouch that Fluffy Tail could fit in.
"Don't worry. I'll go ask Mrs. Cheerilee for help. She will know what to do with you."
Jakira then heard a snap behind him.
"Who's there?!" he shouted as he turned around to look at the possible cold hearted pony or ponies that are responsible for this crime of animal cruelty.
Further away from the school, two mares were sitting down enjoying a picnic together.
"So what have you been doing lately, Fluttershy?" said a green mare after taking a bite from her apple.
"Well, I have been busy taking care of a little squirrel that I found near a tree. The poor thing was groveling on the ground because of a broken leg. I had to help it, so I took it to my cottage and nursed it back to health." said Fluttershy.
"Did you release it back to it's tree or wherever it came from?"
"She's back where she belongs, with her mother and her little brother." replied Fluttershy.
"Groovy Flutters. Groovy."
"So what did you do for the past three days, Tree Hugger?"
"Well…Hmmmmmm…" Tree Hugger was silent as she was trying to remember what she had done over the past three days.
"Oh! Yesterday I tried to-" Tree Hugger was interrupted they both heard a loud noise coming from the school.
"What was that?" said Tree Hugger.
"Something must be going on down by the school." said Fluttershy as she stood up.
"Are you gonna check it out?"
"I have to, Tree Hugger. What if it's an animal in trouble? I have go see what it is."
"What about our picnic? This food will be wasted."
"Pack it all up, go to my cottage, and place it in one of my cupboards."
Tree Hugger gathered the food, drinks, and mat and placed them in Fluttershy's picnic basket. Fluttershy started to run towards the school as Tree Hugger finished packing.
"Hey Flutters!" shouted Tree Hugger in the distance. Fluttershy stopped then turned around to look back at her friend that was trying to get her attention.
"When would you like to meet again?!"
"I'll see you tomorrow!" replied Fluttershy as she waved goodbye to her friend.
"Groovy! See ya then!"
They both turned around and Tree Hugger headed towards Fluttershy's cottage to drop off her picnic basket and Fluttershy ran towards the school.
"Please be OK whoever it is." thought Fluttershy as she ran towards the school.
Jakira was on the ground clinging on to Fluffy Tail in a attempt to save the poor thing.
"Come on kid. Hand over the rabbit and we swear we won't beat the shit out of you. We're using it for target practice." said a diamond dog with a scar close to his eye.
Jakira never expected it to be a couple of diamond dogs. These guys were horrible. The one that kicked him had a scar near his eye from possibly a brutal fight. The second had his hair slicked back as if he was trying to be cool. He was the shortest of the three. The third is who really worried Jakira. He was taller than the other two and he had a chain at his paws which he used as a whip. These guys looked very dangerous.
"Awwww. The little bunny wabbit lost his famiwy from a couple of diamond dogs. How mean." said the slick haired diamond dog in a mocking voice. The three diamond dogs got a good laugh of his stupid imitation of Jakira.
"Alright let me tell ya something, buddy. Give us the rabbit and we won't have to break your neck." said the slick haired diamond dog as the taller diamond dog pushed Jakira against the fence.
"Think about how it would snap. I'd like to hear that."
Jakira got up to his hooves and ran towards the back doors when the the diamond dog with the scar, shot a rock at Jakira's hoof with his slingshot. Jakira fell to the ground still clinging on to Fluffy Tail.
"You know what?" said the diamond dog with the scar. "Rabbits aren't the only things we can use for target practice. Now hand over the rabbit, kid!"
The tall diamond dog got a firm grip on his chain as he walked closer towards Jakira.
"You know, holding on that rabbit is bad for your health, kid." said the tall diamond dog as he crouched down.
Jakira got up to his hooves while holding on to Fluffy Tail and looked at the diamond dog with the scar.
"I can't let you have him…I…I just can't let you abuse him for your games."
"Yes you fucking can, you little shit!" said the slicked haired diamond dog as he kicked Jakira. Jakira was against the wall near the back doors still clinging on to Fluffy Tail.
The tall diamond dog walked towards Jakira with his paw opening up.
"Hand over the rabbit."
Jakira shook his head.
"You're not that brave you know, you're just fucking stupid. I'm gonna have to knock some sense into ya."
The tall diamond dog grabbed ahold of his chain and flung it to the side of the wall, which was just a few inches closer to Jakira's head. Jakira's eyes went wide as he saw how deep the chain went into the wall.
"Sweet Celestia. That could've killed me." thought Jakira as he still had his eyes on the chain.
"I'm warning ya kid. You better do what he says, this guy can be a psycho if you piss him off." said the diamond dog with the slick hair.
Jakira felt fire burning within him. He felt like saying something he never expected to say to anypony or anything.
"Fuck you!" said Jakira.
The two diamond dogs looked with surprise at what he just said to them. The diamond dog with a scar began to smile. The tall diamond dog's face turned bright red as he pulled out the chain from the wall and whipped it at Jakira in the head while he desperately held onto Fluffly Tail. The tall diamond dog was about to bring in another blow when the diamond dog with a scar interrupted him.
"That's enough!! Don't be an idiot, the kids not worth it!" he said with a demanding voice.
He walked over to Jakira. Jakira was in pain and was starting to bleed near the horn in his forehead.
"Hey kid." he said while crouched down so that Jakira could hear better, "You're a stupid little fucker, but I have to admit, you've got guts.
Jakira replied by giving him a nod.
After that, Fluttershy appeared from the corner of the building. Her eyes were wide with shock.
"Oh my Goodness!" shouted Fluttershy as the diamond dogs and Jakira looked towards her.
"Come on boys. Let's get out of here." said the diamond dog with a scar close to his eye.
They obeyed and walked away from Jakira and Fluffy Tail. They disappeared as they dropped down into the hole that they had dug to get to the school. Jakira stood up on his hooves still clinging onto Fluffy Tail, and looked back at the pony.
"Are you alright?" she asked with a soft and tender voice.
"My body aches a bit and my head is bleeding." replied Jakira as he limped over to grab his saddlebag. He placed Fluffy Tail gently in the pouch.
"Could you help me take Fluffy Tail to Mrs. Cheerilee?"
"What happened?" She replied with a cocked eyebrow.
"I came here to feed the bunnies and found Fluffy Tail close to his mothers' dead body. The diamond dogs had killed her. They had used her for target practice. Luckily, I was here to protect Fluffy Tail here."
"I'm so glad you saved him." she said with a smile on her face.
Jakira started to blush a bit on his peach colored fur. This very nice pony gave him a hoof to help him stand up.
"Oh. We haven't introduced ourselves. My name is Fluttershy. For short, Someponies call me 'Flutters'. What's yours?"
Jakira had a tough time replying back. Never has he seen any mare been this sweet and beautiful that is willing to help him. He was getting nervous as they walked towards the back doors.
"Um…Is there…Something wrong?" She asked with curiosity.
Jakira came back to reality.
"Oh. It's uh…Jakira." he replied back to her.
"Well…It's a pleasure to meet you then, Jakira." she said with a smile.
Jakira smiled back at her.
They made it to Mrs. Cheerilee's classroom and told her about the incident with the diamond dogs. Jakira handed Fluffy Tail to Mrs. Cheerilee who started to cry. She walked up to Jakira and hugged him tight.
"Thank Celestia you saved little Fluffy Tail. Thank you very much."
Mrs. Cheerilee let go of Jakira as he stood there with surprise in his eyes.
"Jakira, you are considered a hero in my book."
"Mine too." complimented Fluttershy.
Jakira was never called a hero before. The only hero he ever knew in reality is Poyo. Jakira started to feel happy. Tears began to fall from his eyes. Mrs. Cheerilee and Fluttershy watched him with surprise.
"What's wrong Jakira?" said Fluttershy.
"I…Have never been called a 'hero' before. It just…Makes me…So happy that I saved a life today." said Jakira as he sat down on the floor covering his face with his hooves.
He began to sob. Fluttershy walked over to him and gave him a hug. He instantly, stopped sobbing and looked at her.
"No tears please. You should feel grateful that you saved little Fluffy Tail today."
Jakira sniffled and got back up to his hooves. He brushed his black hair back, trying to get his hair out of his face. Fluttershy noticed that a bit of blood was coming off of his forehead near his horn. She looked back at Mrs. Cheerilee.
"Excuse me Mrs. Cheerilee, Do you know where the school nurse is?"
"Go down the hall towards the front doors. Her office will be on the left near the drinking fountain."
"Thank you. Have a good day Mrs. Cheerilee." said Fluttershy as she and Jakira waved back to her as they left to get to the school nurse.
Jakira and Fluttershy made it to the nurses office. She knocked on the door to get the nurses attention. No reply. Fluttershy pushed the door open which was surprisingly unlocked.
"Hello?" said Fluttershy as she looked through the office.
There was nopony in there. Fluttershy began walk further into the office. Still no sign of the nurse.
"Looks like the nurse isn't here." said Jakira.
Fluttershy looked back at him with a smile.
"Looks like I'll have to nurse you instead." she said with a smile.
Jakira blushed.
"You know how to nurse?"
"Sure. I always help somepony or creature get better again. Now come here and sit down on this chair."
Jakira sat down as Fluttershy went through the office to find a towel.
Three minutes later, she found a towel and walked towards the sink and turned on the water to hot. She walked back to Jakira with a warm, slightly soaked, towel and started to rub it on his dry and bloody face.
Jakira couldn't take his eyes off of Fluttershy. She hardly knew him and couldn't understand why she would be so helpful him.
"Um…Fluttershy." he asked with nervousness.
"Yes Jakira?"
"Why are you so kind to me?"
"Well, because I am an element of harmony. My element is 'kindness'. "
"So that's why." thought Jakira.
"Well…Your kindness is…Beautiful." he said as his face began to flush.
Fluttershy stopped rubbing the now cold, slightly wet towel on Jakira and looked at him.
"Um…Thank you." she said with a little blush.
Fluttershy got ahold of the towel and hanged it on a drying rack. She walked back to him and together, left the nurses office.
They both walked to the front doors. Before Fluttershy could opened the doors, Jakira walked up to her with with nervousness.
"Um…Fluttershy."
"Yes jakira?"
He began to fidget with his hooves by swinging them back and forth.
"Would you like to... Walk home with me?" he asked with a bit of worry in his voice.
Fluttershy smiled.
"Sure."
They both walked out of the school together. Jakira was feeling a warmth in his heart. He never knew he had such feelings for somepony he just met in one day. She may be that special somepony of his life. Jakira walked happily with her as the sun sets further in the distance.

I Know the romance seems corny, but I like corniness.
Hope you liked it
Reunion and Acceptance
Jakira and Fluttershy have been hanging out together for the next three days. They both tell stories about what they have been through in their pasts. Jakira told her more about what he's been through from a little colt to a eighteen year old unicorn that he is now. Fluttershy has been listening to him from beginning to end. She felt bad for him that he's been through such pain and bullying. She was very close to crying about his mother who died from an expedition on a mountain. She never heard such a sad story coming from such a pony.
The day after they met, Fluttershy invited him to a picnic with her friend Tree Hugger. Jakira was never invited to anything as a foal, but it was nice of her and Tree Hugger to let him join them in their conversations. Jakira had never heard so much talk about animals and the environment. For a second there, he felt as if they were hippies and could possibly be doing marijuana. But no, they just to love the world of animals, creatures, etc. Jakira was having a pleasant day with them.
Besides talking about the environment and animals, they would lay on their backs and watch the clouds to find a figure of an animal. They would even allow Jakira to get in touch with the animals and creatures that they interact with. Jakira has never been up close to a bear before. He was scared till Fluttershy came to help him get in touch with the bear. The bear was starting to take a liking to him and gave him a big bear hug. Tree Hugger and Fluttershy laughed as the bear was still holding on to Jakira trying to find a way to get out of the bears paws. Either than that, Jakira has never had this much fun since he and Poyo went to Manehattan one summer when he was at the age of seven.
It's Friday now, school ended early. Jakira left to meet with Fluttershy near a tree that was close to the school.
Jakira found her at the tree holding a pair of bottles. She said that another one of her friends Applejack, has made them some fresh apple juice for them. Jakira helped her open the bottles and together drank the apple juice. It was really tasty. This was Jakira's first time drinking apple juice that was fresh and sweet.
"Please give my compliments to Applejack." said Jakira as he held up the empty bottle.
"I sure will." said Fluttershy.
"Since I'm out of school, you wanna go take a walk with me to Sugarcube Corner and have a shake?"
"Sure."
Jakira went with Fluttershy around Ponyville to get there. By the time they made it, Pinkie Pie came trotting through the doors.
"Hey there, Fluttershy!" said Pinkie.
"Hi Pinkie." said Fluttershy.
Pinkie Pie then looked over to Jakira.
"Who are you? A friend of Fluttershy?" said pinkie as she trotted over to him.
"Yes I am. My name is Jakira. Jakira Pudo. Nice to meet you."
"Nice to meet you too. My name is Pinkie Pie. I'm one of Fluttershy's friends. By the way, are you Fluttershy's coltfriend?"
Jakira and Fluttershy's face went red from her question.
"No she's not! She's just a friend." said Jakira with an embarrassment.
"Just wondering. She's told me a lot about you. What have you two come in for?" said Pinkie with a smile.
"We came here to have a shake. Could you make two for the both of us, please." said Jakira.
"Sure thing. Come inside and sit down in our tables as I make your shakes."
Jakira and Fluttershy followed Pinkie into Sugarcube Corner. They both took seats and waited for their shakes.
Five minutes passed till Pinkie Pie gave them both vanilla shakes with a cherry on top.
"Here are the shakes for the lovebirds." said Pinkie with a little snicker.
"PINKIE!" said Jakira and Fluttershy at the same time.
"Juuuuuust Kiding." said Pinkie as she headed back to the counter.
Jakira and Fluttershy drank their shakes. Jakira's eyes went wide.
"WOW." said Jakira with surprise.
"Is there something wrong?" said Fluttershy.
"No. It's just that I haven't been here for about three years and they still taste amazing."
"Oh. Well, Pinkie Pie sure does know what sweet tooth anypony here has."
Jakira and Fluttershy finished their shakes till there was nothing but cherries. Jakira ate his cherry and then looked back at Fluttershy that was staring at her cherry.
"You OK Flutters?" said Jakira with a cocked eyebrow.
"Well…Um…I'm just too full to eat this."
"She's so cute when she's shy." thought Jakira. "Well, do you mind if I have it?"
"Sure." said Fluttershy as she handed over the cherry to Jakira.
Jakira ate the cherry leaving nothing but the stem.
"Thanks for the shakes Pinkie. They were delicious." said Jakira waving a hoof to get Pinkies attention.
"Your welcome." said Pinkie.
"How much do I owe ya?"
"That'll be ten bits."
Jakira walked up to the counter and gave Pinkie the ten bits.
"Thank you. Come again next time." said Pinkie with a smile.
"We will Pinkie. Have a good day." said Jakira as he and Fluttershy waved to Pinkie goodbye.
The sun was starting to set. Jakira and Fluttershy were walking towards a bridge that is close to the entrance of Ponyville. They both sat down and watched the sun setting down with all of its beauty.
"I could stay here everyday watching this sunset." said Jakira with amusement.
"You come this bridge a lot?" said Fluttershy with a cocked eyebrow.
"When I was little, I got away from some bullies and took a breather right at this very spot. And just like now, I looked at the sun setting in the distance and thought it was one of the most beautiful things that I never expected to see. It was so beautiful that I wanted to cry. It felt as if, the sunset was cheering me up. Ever since then, every once in a while, I come here and look at the sunsets beauty as it falls."
Jakira started to shed a tear on his right eye. Fluttershy noticed and gave him a hug. She then let go of him and they both continued to look at the sunset.
"Caught by the moonlight A silent mist A shimmer in the trees Oh what a night for dreams A night of destiny Others are sleeping So unaware of magic in the air Magic you weave just for me Io sono prigioniera"
"Sweet fascination Though I-" Sung Jakira before Fluttershy interrupted him.
"What song is that?" said Fluttershy.
"It was lyrics to a song from a book series I've been reading called Record of Pony War ."
"Well…It's a beautiful song when you sang it." said Fluttershy with a blush.
Jakira began to blush along with her. Jakira slid closer to her and something he didn't expect to say yet.
"Not as beautiful as you."
Fluttershy and Jakira's face went even redder.
Jakira and Fluttershy started to move heads closer to one another.
"Yo, Jakira!"
Before Fluttershy and Jakira could even kiss, Somepony interrupted them by calling out Jakira's name. The pony was walking towards them with a coat that pretty much covered most of the pony's fur. He wore a hat that covered his hair and almost his ears.
"I've been gone for five days and you already have a marefriend with you? You're one lucky pony." said the pony as he got closer.
Jakira recognized that voice.
"Poyo, is that you?"
"Indeed it is."
Jakira and Fluttershy stood up. Jakira walked over to Poyo and gave him a hug. Jakira looked back at Fluttershy.
"Hey Flutters, this is my friend Poyo I was telling you about. He was the pony that saved by flank from that bully Drake."
"Hi there." said Fluttershy as she walked up to both Jakira and Poyo.
"Salutations." said Poyo.
"Where have you been, Poyo?" said Jakira with curiosity.
"That's why I came here to find you. I need you to come with me."
"Sure, I'll come. First, I need to say bye to Flutters."
"Take your time." said Poyo as he turned around.
Jakira walked over to Fluttershy and gave her a hug.
"I have to go now Flutters."
"When will I see you again?"
"I'll see you again on Monday."
"OK…See you later."
Jakira waved goodbye to Fluttershy as he began to walk with Poyo.
Jakira and Poyo went to Jakira's adoptive mothers' home and asked if Jakira could spend the night with Poyo at his home. She agreed and let the two friends have a sleep over.
It was getting dark outside. Jakira and Poyo have been walking for about five minutes. Jakira wondered why his friend wanted him to go over to his place for.
"Wazzup Poyo? What happened to you over the past five days?" said Jakira as they continued walking.
Poyo looked over to Jakira.
"I'm in danger." he said with a serious tone in his voice.
"Why's that?"
"My father died."
"I'm very sorry to hear that. How did it happen? Accident?"
"No. It wasn't an accident. It was a suicide."
Jakira's eyes went wide.
"He covered himself with gas and lit himself on fire."
"Sweet Celestia." said Jakira as he stepped back a bit in horror.
"It's true what they say. Smoking is really bad for your health, especially if it's your on flesh that's smoking. There was nothing I could've done to stop it. I couldn't get near him because of the heat. My father wasn't acting like himself. The first clue I found that something was wrong with my father was when I found my dog decapitated."
Three Days Earlier
Poyo walked into his fathers' study room.
"Hey dad, our dog's decapitated! Should we-"
Poyo was cut off by how bloody his fathers coat was.
"Don't worry about it, Poyo." said Poyo's father as he levitated a cigarette to his mouth. "He bit me. So I had to kill the furry fucker."
Poyo's father turned around.
"Hehehe. You should have seen him as I pulled his guts out. Hehehehe…HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!"
Late that night, Poyo was sleeping as thunder boomed outside of his room. Poyo then woke up from hoof steps coming closer from the darkness. He then saw a levitated knife above him that was heading towards his skull. Poyo jumped out of his bed in time before the knife could even kill him. He then saw his father with a scared, but crazy look at Poyo.
"What are you doing?! That could've killed me!" shouted Poyo.
His father walked back a few steps and ran towards the door.
"AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!" shouted Poyo's father as he disappeared through the hallway.
Present
"He tried to kill you? That's insane!" said Jakira.
"If you think that's weird, wait till you hear about the autopsy on my fathers' dead body. He weighed twice as much dead as he did alive. But he wasn't the only thing that died." said Poyo as he and Jakira went past the closed Sugarcube Corner.
"What do you mean?" said Jakira with a cocked eyebrow.
Poyo looked back at him.
"My father's legacy. It was such a secret burden that I couldn't carry alone. If there wasn't so much at stake, I would've spared you from its horror. As it is, I needed somepony like you to share it's secrets with me."
Poyo stopped.
"Jakira, I want you to accept the responsibilities with me of my father's legacy."
Jakira nodded and an agreement was settled as they continued towards Poyo's Mansion.
To Be Coninued...
Author's Note
Hope you like their romance, cause that may be the last time you'll see Fluttershy.
By the way,the song Jakira was singing was "Eternity" which was from the anime "Record of Lodoss War."
Jakira and Poyo finally made it to the mansion. Jakira was starting to get an eerie feeling coming from the mansion as they got closer.
Poyo levitated a key from his coat pocket and unlocked the door.
"Step right in." said Poyo as he held the door open for Jakira to enter.
As they walked in, Poyo levitated his coat and hat on the rack.
"Right this way." said Poyo as he walked further down the hallway.
As Jakira caught up with him, he awed at the painting of Poyo's father.
"Wow! I know this guy. He's a famous archeologist." said Jakira as he pointed at the painting.
"Heh. I knew that at some point you'd figured it out." said Poyo.
"Anyway, could you tell me more about what secret you wanted me to bare with along with you?"
"Before my father went crazy, he was investigating some ruins when he suddenly found a hole. But not just any hole, it was more like a tunnel. He followed further down the tunnel into the bowels of Equestria. As he made it to the end, he found an unusual artifact."
Poyo opens the door to a room that was really cold. It felt like winter in there.
"Sweet Celestia, it's cold in here. Why's that?" said Jakira as he began to shiver.
"That's why." said Poyo as he pointed.
"AHHHHHH!!" shouted Jakira out of fright.
What he saw was something out of science fiction. The artifact had horns, sharp teeth, and pointed ears.
"What the hell is that?!" said Jakira as he looked away from the artifact.
"Relax Jakira. It's quite dead." said Poyo as he walked up towards the artifact.
"Dead?"
"Does it remind you of anything?"
"It…Looks like…Like a demon." said Jakira as he slowly walked up to Poyo.
"That probably what most ponies will put it."
"Is it some sort of representation of what the ancient pony civilization thought?"
"No. This was around way before ponies were alive. Probably older than the ice age. This artifact wasn't made by ponies, I can tell you that."
"Is it some kind of natural formation?"
"Natural? No. This was created by a force that is unnatural . This artifact right here, really isn't an artifact at all."
"Not an artifact?" said Jakira with a cocked eyebrow.
"This is really a fossil. It's a skull of a demon. To the ponies back in ancient times, this was a religious artifact that was very important to them. It is said that it has magical powers."
"Sweet Celestia."
"If you place it over your head, you can see the ancient world that the demons live in." said Poyo as he placed the demon skull over his head.
"Jakira, now it's your turn to wear the demon skull."
"No fucking way, Poyo. I'm leaving." said Jakira as he walked towards the door.
"Come here!" shouted Poyo.
"See you soon, bye-bye." said Jakira as he opened the door.
"Jakira! Please, you have to wear it. Only by looking into the past, can help us to what may occur in the future. Remember that you are now apart of this."
"…Ok, let's get this over with." said Jakira as he closed his eyes waiting for what he was about to see.
Poyo levitated the demon skull and slowly placed it on Jakira's head. Jakira opened his eyes slowly.
"AHHHHHH!!!!" shouted Jakira.
"Don't take it off!! you're seeing millions of years back in the past."
"SWEET CELESTIA! IT'S UGLY!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!"
Jakira saw demons everywhere. They were fighting one another from every direction around him. Some look like dinosaurs and some look almost alien. Blood was splattered everywhere he went. He saw a demon slicing another demon through it's belly which made it's intestines come out rapidly. Another demon that looked like an insect spat out some liquid that made a demon that it was fighting with go puffy and then popped like a balloon.
Jakira was frightened by what he has saw and rapidly took off the demon skull and started to throw up on the carpet. Poyo walked up to him and brought him back up to his hooves.
"Jakira, come with me, I'll take you to the bathroom so you can clean up your face." said Poyo as he walked slowly with Jakira towards the bathroom.
After cleaning up, Poyo and Jakira headed towards the living room where Jakira could lay down on.
"Now that you see what the demons are, they are very aggressive and they take a delight in destruction. However, they fight each other for a purpose, it's a perverse version of the theory to evolution. When a demon consumes another, it'll gain special powers which makes it stronger." said Poyo.
"Amazing…To believe that demons are real." said Jakira as he stared at the floor.
"Here" said Poyo as he levitated a glass of water to Jakira.
"Thanks" said Jakira before he could take a drink.
"The good thing is that demons aren't around here these days." said Jakira after he finished his drink.
"It would be good that way, but remember this, demons can live for thousands of years. How can Equestria be free of something immortal." said Poyo as he looked through his window.
"There are many stories around Equestria that can relate to demons that suggest to me that they are far from extinction. They still live among us. Are you familiar with the epic poem The Divine Comedy ?"
Jakira shook his head.
"The writer was an amazing poet from the 13th century. The Divine Comedy was a story about a journey though heaven and down into hades. He wrote that in the lowest level of hades, he saw demons frozen in ice and in the coldest part of the ice was the king of the demons. The kings name was Lucifer, the evil one. Now a days it's an old story…But then again…" Poyo paused.
"So you're telling me that this poet saw these demons and that they are frozen in ice?" said Jakira.
"I think so. Because of global warming, the icecaps are melting. Soon, they'll be back. It could be the end of Equestria as we know it. As bad as it sounds, we have to face the fact that demons will arise from their icy prisons."
Jakira stood there with his mouth hanging wide open.
"You mean…" said Jakira as he got up from the couch.
"I guess so. As I know, we're defenseless against them. There are very little of what can kill demons. If that weren't bad enough, you and I have problems to contend with. You and I are now fully involved with what my father has been working on. We now know the secrets of the demons. We're not safe from them. We must be ready for them when the time comes. Do you understand?" said Poyo as he looked back at Jakira.
"You said yourself that they are still frozen in ice. what can they do?" said Jakira.
"Unfortunately, not all of the demons are frozen in ice. Some of them are out there. Because of my fathers work, they know about us. Don't you see? We're in danger of being attacked at anytime. I should always carry a weapon with me wherever I go."
"This is bullshit." said Jakira with a fit of anger.
"You have to accept the facts. Sorry if this is so unpleasant for you."
"Wait a minute!! So what did your father really do?"
"Ever since he found the demon skull, he was obsessed with it. My father wanted everything to know about the demons, but what he actually found was a way for ponies to meld with demons. My father was in a case of demonic possession, he couldn't control the demon he melded with. That's why he committed suicide. If he somehow controlled the demon, he could've had the demons power."
"So that he can fight other demons on equal terms?"
"Exactly. That was his idea, but his facts were wrong. Come with me, I have to show you some notes that he wrote down." Said Poyo as he and Jakira left the living room.
Before they could take a few steps through the hallway, the window smashed into pieces. The ceiling behind them suddenly smashed down from the dark hallway.
"THEY'RE HERE!!!!" shouted Poyo.
The demon was almost down to the ground as its tentacles reached towards the floor.
"FUCKING A!!! RUN!!!" shouted Poyo as he and Jakira ran down the hall.
The demon was finally free and started to chase the two ponies down the hall. It was right up their tail.
"QUICK!!! I KNOW A PLACE WHERE IT CAN'T REACH US!!!!" shouted Poyo as he and Jakira Ran down stairs.
As they made it to the bottom, another demon burst through the wall. This one looked like a centipede with sharp teeth and had one eye.
"ANOTHER ONE?!?!" shouted Jakira as he and Poyo made a left towards a steel door.
Poyo stopped to open the door.
"COME ON, POYO!!! HURRY!!!" shouted Jakira as the demons were getting closer.
"IT'S OPEN!! COME ON!!!" shouted Poyo as he and Jakira made it safely inside.
As the door closes, all they could hear were banging noises coming from the demons trying to break through.
"You think it'll last long?"
"It will. I'm sure of it." said Poyo as he turned on the lights.
As the lights came on, there was another door behind them.
"I can't believe it…They're real…" said Jakira as he fell to the ground.
"Jakira…I'm very sorry I got you involved with this, but you are my only friend and I need your help. If there was a way to fight these things, I would've done something. But I'm not strong enough. I hope you can forgive me." said Poyo as he put a hoof on Jakira's shoulder.
"It's Ok, Poyo." said Jakira as he got back up on his hooves.
"I have another thing to ask. I remember my adoptive mother telling me that my mother went missing during an expedition near the crystal empire. Do you think she may have disturbed the demons?"
"Possibly…In fact, maybe."
"So what do we do now?"
"Be prepared for the fight to come. Also, this won't be easy." said Poyo as he walked towards the door from behind them.
"Jakira, are you ready to fight them?"
"…You name it and I'll do it. I'll give it my best. I wanna stop those bastards. I'll take whatever fate has in store for me. Tell me how."
"Ok, I'll tell you how to kill a demon. You must become one with a demon. Understand? Only a demon is capable of killing a demon. There's a 50/50 chance you'll meld with a demon. My father wrote in his last journal entry is that it is possible that a mortal pony to join with a demon giving the pony the powers of that demon. The only ponies that can do it have to be pure and have virtuous nature."
"How will it know if I'm virtuous?" said Jakira as he walked up to Poyo.
"You'll find out soon enough."
"Could my consciousness suppress the demons will?"
"If you manage it, you'll be the first."
"Aren't you going to try melding with a demon along with me?"
"Oh, I will. I'll do my very best."
"If you're giving it a try, then so will I. Let's go get some demons." said Jakira with a smile on his face.
Poyo smiles back
"Alright let's do this!!!" shouted Jakira with confidence.
"Let's go! No turning back!" said Poyo as he opened the door.
Inside were flashing lights with party music going on in the background. There were ponies dancing and having a great time. Vinyl Scratch was DJing the music with everything she's got. There was alcohol, balloons, and tons of food everywhere.
"What the fuck?" said Jakira.
TO BE CONTINUED...
The place was almost filled with tons of ponies partying. The place was starting to reek of cider and marijuana. Jakira was starting to feel a tad sick from the stench. He looked over to Poyo who was laughing really hard for some reason.
"What the hell is this, Poyo?!?! Some kind of gag?!?!" said Jakira with a stern look.
"Come with me." said Poyo as he and Jakira walked over to a couch that was a bit further away from the dance area.
Poyo sat down with a grin upon his face.
"Poyo, answer my question. What is all of this?!" said Jakira.
"Lighten up. This is suppose to be a modern version of a sabbath. Long ago, they were used by witches. Look, communion with the forces of darkness was used commonly back then. A sabbath is used to attract spirits to a random host. This is how we are gonna meld with a demon. We are also gonna have to abandon our powers of pony reason." said Poyo.
"How are we gonna abandon our reason?" said Jakira.
"See the ponies all around us."
"Yeah. What about them?"
"These kind of ponies want to abandon reason and their pursuit of pleasure. That's why I brought all of down here. With them, it'll be easier for us to meld with a demon along with them. Here drink this." said Poyo as he held out a bottle of cider to Jakira.
Before Jakira could reach the bottle, he retracted his hoof.
"So if we are gonna turn into demons, they will too."
"No shit. There is one thing however, I haven't told anypony here about demons. They won't know what hit them."
"But…"
"I know what you're thinking, yes, these ponies will eventually become demons and will attack us. That consequence will be unavoidable. We may have to kill all of them."
Jakira took a few steps back.
"You're insane. How the hell are we gonna fight them all at once? We don't stand a chance agai-"
"JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP AND LISTEN TO WHAT I HAVE TO SAY! IF WE CAN'T DEFEAT ALL OF THESE SCHMUCKS, WE MIGHT AS WELL GIVE UP! REMEMBER THAT WE ARE GONNA HAVE TO KILL MANY DEMONS TO SAVE EQUESTRIA! LET US HOPE THAT WE JOIN A DEMON AND TAKE ITS POWER TO DEFEAT ALL OF THEM! OTHERWISE, IT'S A WASTE OF TIME!" shouted Poyo as he got up from the couch.
Jakira stood there still and silent.
"As I said before, this is gonna be very risky. What we're about to do is not for the sake of us, but for all of Equestria. We have to prevent the demons from taking Equestria away from us." said Poyo as he looked at Jakira dead in the eye.
Suddenly, loud music boomed over the room. Just then, a dark yellow mare walks up to Jakira. She had earrings that looked like diamonds and had bracelets on her left and right hoof.
"Hey there, come dance with me and my friends. We'll show you how to have a good time." said the mare as she grabbed Jakira by his right hoof and walked over to the dance floor. Jakira was embarrassed and tried to squirm his hoof out of her grip.
"Poyo! Help me! I need an adult!" said Jakira as he tried to wave his left hoof to get Poyo's attention.
"Don't worry handsome, I am an adult." said the mare as she winked at Jakira seductively.
The party continued as Vynyl played another song to make the party continue. Ponies were still dancing and drinking having the time of their lives. Just as Jakira was getting the hang of him dancing with this mare that he just met, suddenly there was a scream. Ponies looked over to where the scream came from and saw Poyo levitating a broken cider bottle that he used to stab the mare in front of him. She was bleeding from the shoulder panting hard. He stabbed her again in the same shoulder which made the mare bleed even more. She then fell to the floor from blood loss.
"Another thing we need for the sabbath is plenty of blood." said Poyo as he levitated the broken bottle up to a green stallion's face.
The stallion screamed in pain as he covered his face with his hooves.
Ponies all around were frightened and were in a panic. Poyo went running around to find another victim. He levitated the broken bottle in the air and slashed it against a Stallion's face. The stallion fell to the floor unconscious.
Poyo then found a mare and slashed her throat that made her collapse on the Stallion that Poyo slashed before.
"HAHAHAHAHA!" laughed Poyo as he looked down on his kills.
"You bastard!!" yelled out a white stallion as he charged Poyo head-on.
Before the stallion could reach him, Poyo bucked the stallion in the face.
A pony from behind Poyo grabbed Poyo's fore-hooves. As he held him still, another stallion walks up and punches Poyo in the face. Poyo was kicked in the stomach and punched in the face again. Poyo collapsed to the ground. More ponies surrounded him and started to beat him down.
Jakira went rushing over to aid his friend.
"Sweet Celestia!! Please, get out of my way! I need to save him!" yelled Jakira as he tried to move through the crowd.
"Hey buddy, You wanna get a close up on the action? Then take this!!" said a grey stallion as he punched Jakira in the face.
Jakira landed in front of another stallion that was a pretty fat and gruff.
"Get off of me!" said the stallion as he bucked Jakira in the leg.
Jakira fell to the ground and was in a lot of pain. Suddenly, a mare walked up to him with a sinister look in her eye.
"Hey there, kid. You look a little down. Let me help you." she said a she levitated a bottle and smashed it against Jakira's face.
Lakira was in more pain than ever. Luckily, the glass didn't do complete damage to his face. He did however had some shards in his face.
Everypony in the room was laughing by Jakira getting the shit kicked out of him.
Just then, Vinyl noticed that there was something going on with the loud speakers. They were emitting weird noises that could be understood.
"What's going on?" said Vinyl as she looked around the cables.
The loud speakers suddenly sparked and exploded from whatever force caused it. The room was music less. Everypony was still laughing down at Jakira and Poyo being in pain.
The mare that smashed a bottle against Jakira's face suddenly felt something within her. Something evil.
"AUUUGGGHHHH!!" screamed the mare in pain.
Everypony around stared at her not knowing what to do.
As she screamed more, her left eye popped out along with a un-normal stalk that was connected to her eye. Her eye stalk moved on it own looking at all the ponies around her. Her spin snapped as she stood on two hooves. Her chest suddenly was starting to grow two bumps. Her bright purple skin from her bumps ripped horizontally revealing a mouth with teeth and long tongues. Two tiny extra bumps came up to be revealed as eyes. Her standing hooves became sharp clawed toes. Her toes were scrapping the floor trying to stretch out more. Her fore-hooves at the tip were growing claws then it felt like her fore-hooves were being split in half. Her hooves were split horizontally making it look like she had four arms.
"WHAT THE HELL IS SHE?!?!?!" shouted a stallion.
"IS SHE A DEMON?!?!?!"
"YES!!! IT'S A DEMON!!!"
Everypony stood there in horror looking at the transformed mare.
A blue stallion further away started to grow horns on his head. His skin was coming off and had green colored scaly skin.
Many ponies were transforming into things they never expected to see, DEMONS .
Almost every pony in the room was a demon. They were everywhere.
"RUN!!" shouted Vynil as she headed towards the exit door.
Everypony went running towards the exit. All except for Poyo and Jakira.
"Poyo!" shouted Jakira as he ran towards Poyo.
"Jakira, do you feel any change from within yourself?" said Poyo as he got up to his hooves.
"I don't feel anything."
"Somehow we fucked up."
The mare that was the first to transform went running towards Poyo and Jakira.
"RUN!" shouted Poyo.
Jakira and Poyo split up.
As Jakira was trying to make his way towards the exit, a demon cutoff his chance to escape. IT was right in front of him. Jakira stared at the demon with its large blue eyes with sharp teeth sticking out.
"AHHHHHHH!!!!" shouted Jakira as he ran away from it.
As he went running, he then felt a shock within himself. He fell to the ground and started shaking.
Jakira felt a pulse within him. He slowly got back up to his hooves.
Demons surrounded him looked at him with curiosity.
"Let's eat him!" shouted a snake-like demon.
"Wait…Something's…Not normal about this pony." said a demon that had dragon-like features.
"Hehehehehe…" laughed Jakira as he slowly turned around.
"Ok demons. This is it! I'm gonna send you back to hell where you belong!!" yelled Jakira.
Jakira stood up. His hooves on ground changed into feet with sharp nails. His fore-hooves changed into hands with sharp claws. His elbows turned into blades. His hair turned red along with his fur. His mouth stretched further and revealed his teeth. On top of his forehead were antennae. on the sides of his head were wing-like features that made him look like he had wings on the sides of his head.
"I did it…I'm DEVILPONY!!! shouted Jakira as he ran towards the first transformed pony.
Jakira grabbed the demons' head with one hand and started squishing his face. The demon squealed with pain until its head popped like a pimple. The demons all around looked at Jakira with surprise.
"Amon?!?! What are you doing?!?! He's one of us!!" shouted one of the demons.
"It's no use! The pony has full control of his power!" said another demon.
The headless demon twitched for a few seconds and then came to a halt as blood poured out of its neck. Jakira flicked his hand to flick most of the blood off of his hand. He looked back at the demons with a evil and sinister grin.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Amon? He's eatin' shit in hell now! You can call me DEVILPONY!!!" said Jakira.
"He really has been taken over by the demons consciousness. I don't believe it!" said a surpised demon.
"You better fuckin' believe I did, 'cause I'm gonna be the death of you lot!" said Jakira as he charged towards the crowd of demons.
One by one the demons were being toppled by Jakira as he charged through the crowd. Jakira then stopped at one of the demons and punched it in the gut so hard that he made a dent in the demons' chest. The demon fell to the ground unable to get up. A bug-like demon with a ant-like face showed up from behind him ready to give Jakira a slash to the back with his sharp scythe like arms. Luckily, Jakira looked back before the demon could even make a move and sliced the demons face in half. Blood spurred from his face as if he were some sort of sprinkler.
"Let me at him!" said a skeletal faced demon as his hairs turned into pointed tips and were shot out of his head like darts.
Jakira looked towards the skeletal demons' direction and made a huge leap off of the floor. The skeletal demons' hair-like darts however missed and spiked a demon that was from behind Jakira. Jakira was a few feet in the air and from his back sprung dark black and red wings.
"HAHAHAHAHAHA!!" cackled Jakira as he was in the air.
Two demons on the ground made huge leaps in the air in order to attack him. As the demons drew closer, the demons were both smacked on the face by Jakira's now clawed feet and fell to their deaths. A few demons gathered around their fallen comrades and then looked back up at Jakira who was looking down upon them with his evil grin.
"YOU BASTARD!!!" shouted a blue rock-like demon as he made a leap towards Jakira.
Jakira flew down to a dark edge of the place and hid there waiting for the right moment to strike. The blue rock-like demon fell to the ground and headed over to where Jakira had landed. He looked throughout the area and didn't spot him at all. The area was pitched black and was very hard for the demon to see.
"Surprise!" said Jakira as he grabbed the rock-like demons head.
Jakira had a firm grip on the demons' lower jaw and upper jaw and slowly tried to break the demons' jaw.
"HAHAHAHAHAH-huh?" Jakira was cutoff from his laugh and noticed a green dragon-like demon charging towards him with furious anger.
"DIIIIIIIEEEE!!" shouted the dragon-like demon as he charged towards Jakira with horns sprouting out of his head.
Jakira threw away the rock-like demon and grabbed ahold of the dragon-like demons' horns before Jakira could've been hit. Jakira grabbed the demons' horns with a tight grip and lifted the demon from his horns and slammed him to the ground with a loud boom .
Poyo, who was in an area further away from the fight, watched with terror as he saw his best friend killing demons one by one.
"Sweet Celestia. He's got complete control of the demon. Is this really Jakira doing this or is he controlled by the demon that wants bloodshed? Jakira isn't really acting like himself at all. The way he kills them, Jakira would never do that. I just wanted to create and ally to the ponies of Equestria, but it looks as if I made Frankenstien's monster." Thought Poyo as he continued to watch Jakira killing demons one by one.
Two hours have passed and the room was covered with carcasses of demons. Their was nothing but dead demons, broken equipment, and blood all around. In the middle of the massacre was Devilpony. His eyes were closed as if he were sleeping. His claws on his head and toes shrunk and then disappeared. The wings retracted back into his body. The blades on his arms sunk back into the fur as if they were never there to being with. His head shifted and was finally looking pony-like. The fur went back to normal and was back to its original color. Jakira a was back to being a pony again. He opened his eyes and looked around the room. He then realized that his friend disappeared from his sight.
"Poyo! Where are you?" said Jakira as he searched the area.
Jakira looked around the area but only saw corpses of demons lying on the floor.
"Sweet Celestia. I hope I didn't kill him…POYO!!! POY-" Jakira was cutoff till he saw a blonde color under a demons' corpse.
Jakira ran towards the corpse and pulled the corpse out of his way. There he saw Poyo out cold. Jakira put a hoof and couldn't feel a pulse.
"Poyo…Speak to me…Wake up." said Jakira with tears streaming down his face.
"Don't leave me….WHY CELESTIA!!!!!!!!!" shouted Jakira as his voice echoed through the room.
Tonight however was only the beginning...
Author's Note
hope you liked this story.
I know this was a terrible fic, but this was my first time doing one after reading so many good mlp fanfics out there. I may not be as good as them, but I like to entertain people through stories.
Again, I apologize for sloppy writing with this one.
I may not write a sequel to this. if you guys want to know about what happens next, then watch the 2nd episode of the OVA of Devilman. Maybe in the future I'll make the sequel.
Millions of years ago before there were ponies, there were demons:
