Blood Born Different

I understand what I am. A monster.... A pony who drinks blood from the living. So why am I not evil? Ever pack of blood I drink... I feel like I'm draining some pony's life. I miss my parents, they understood what I was, because they were the same. They also knew why, it's because of the bloodline, We are pure vamponys, the most powerful. My life couldn't have been any better. Until that day... I SAW CELESTIA KILL MY PARENTS IN FRONT OF MY EYES!  SHE KILLED THEM BECAUSE THEY WERE DIFFERENT! I... was so young... I believe I was 10 years old. I ran as fast as I could. And I got lucky, or more like unlucky... Many of my pony's made it out alive. But I was shattered and I still am. I'll be fixed, though... When I get my revenge.

I still like normal ponies. The only pony I hate is Celestia, because not only did she kill my parents, she killed my ponies that I loved. Because they protected me. Even for their own lives. I know I'm not the only pony who nearly got killed only because I'm different. Celestia's probably killed more than just vamponies. I feel bad for other ponies like me, who were punished unjustly by Celestia just because they were different... It infuriates me just to think about... but, at least, I know that I'm not the only one.


Soft hoof steps could be heard in the dark and dimly lit hallway. The pony who was making the hoof steps noises was named Dark. Every hallway she walked to... It was always black. And also torches slowly burned as they were on the black cold walls.

Dark had a bright red tail and mane. Dark's fur color was a darker grey. And her hair was short and straight. Dark's hair just reached her chin. Her tail though, was long and also straight. And it barely touched the ground. Dark is a unicorn and has 20% cooler bat wings. And she has red cat-like eyes and no cutie mark.

Then as Dark was walking another hallway, she suddenly remembered that there were only two guards she saw for the past few hallways. It was strange... Dark always saw more on other days. But she didn't really care. Every day is somehow different to Dark. The guards had the same color armor and shape like all her other guards. The armor was black and all of the guards had yellow cat eyes. They also had bat wings. But every vampony had bat wings.

Luckily for Dark, all of her guards did their duty's well. They’d always bow as Dark passed them and she’d always nod saying they could get up. The only problem for Dark today is that she needed to go to her throne. But that the same time, she also needed to rest.

Dark suddenly stopped in a middle of the hallway. She looked around the hallway to see if it was clear, and it was. Dark sat down. She needed the rest. She didn't sleep well last night. And she also hasn't had the blood she needs to get through the rest of the day.

"My queen are you alright?" As soon as Dark looked at him, he bowed respectfully and really fast. Dark wasn't able to see his face at that moment.

"I am fine, and you can get up now, my guard," Dark said firmly.

He got up, and the first thing Dark noticed about him is that he had a scar by his right eye. And she never saw anyone with a big scar like that. He also had black hair and it was nice and short. Barely covering his eyes. And his short fur all over him was light grey, but Dark couldn't see his cutie mark and he had no horn either.

"How did you get that scar?" Dark asked.

"I got this scar at the training grounds," He said.

Dark said nothing, the scar was deep, and it looked like it hurt.  For some reason, the scar looked appealing or it reminded her of how she is also scarred for life.

The guard noticed right away that Dark was looking at his scar and said, "My queen, are you sure you are alright?"

Dark instantly snapped backed to reality.  "Um. Yes, I am fine! I was just thinking."

The guard didn't look convinced but said "Well, okay... If you say so."

Dark quickly change the subject and said, "Well I must go, I have a throne to sit on."

He chuckled a bit and said, "Goodbye my queen." And they went their separate ways.

Finally, Queen Dark was at her throne. The throne was black with a red pillow to sit on, and her walls are always black. Except the red carpet that led to her throne. There was only four windows, two on the right and left of her. The windows were pretty big they almost filled the sides of the wall. Two guards had to stand by the throne. It was for protection. She sat on her throne and started to think.

"I need to redecorate this castle, too much black. But... Why am I noticing this now?" Dark mumble to herself.

"Hey, where is-" Dark was cut off by the door opening.

"I'm so sorry Queen Dark!" It was Dark's best friend maid, she was definitely running down the halls since she sat right away when she made it to the room.

"You're late. I'm sure you have a reason why." Dark said, in her queen voice.

"Well-"

"SILENCE!" Dark cut her off, and the maid closed her mouth fast.

By one look of her face, you could tell she was surprised and afraid. Dark hadn't screamed that loud in a long time, and it felt good to get some of that anger out. She was bored, so Dark decided to toy with her.

"I DO NOT want to hear your pathetic excuses!" The maid said nothing, and Dark continued. "Now... Where is my blood?" The maid pulled out the tray and showed her a pack of blood.

Dark waited a moment. The tray started to shake. Dark was trying to hold in her smile and said, "Animal or pony blood?"

"A-A-Animal." The maid said.

"What!? I wanted pony blood! You know pony blood taste better!“

The maid was always kind to Dark. Dark felt bad that she would scare her like this, but it was going to be funny when she was done. The maid’s appearance was appealing to Dark, she had yellow eyes, brown hair, and a white coat, she was also wearing a ponytail.

"Y-you always take animal blood." Dark tried to reply but she couldn't hold the laughter anymore.

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahhaha. You should see the look on your face!" Dark raised her hoof, as she laughs. She laughs so much that her chest started to hurt.

"Whats so funny!?" The maid was confused and angry.

Soon Dark calmed down as quickly as she could, and said, "I'm not mad at you at all. So what if you're late! I'm immortal! We are all immortal!"

The maid was angry. She gave Dark the blood pack and stormed out. After she left, Dark smiled.

"She'll forgive. She has to forgive me. I am a queen after all."

A few hours past after that. Dark was given a report that her pollution is okay. But she needed to make an announcement. And this announcement is going to be important. She told some of the guards to get every pony as quickly as they could and meet at this spot. There were more guards than maids. Dark's ponies either protect her or feed her. Dark's race is dying, that's why she has no citizens.

After every pony was there, Dark had to speak really loud, I mean it is an important announcement.

"I have an important announcement to make! I need to visit Ponyville! As you should all know there is a new princess. Her name is Princess Twilight Sparkle. I have a plan! And its does involves that princess and her friends. I need to learn more about this ’Princess of friendship’ and her friends.”

After the announcement, many ponies started talking at once. Dark left the throne room, worried that if she stayed too long, a problem could happen. Dark was going to go to Ponyville and see this princess once and for all.

Dark said goodbye to her maids and guards. She was about to leave, but she was stopped.

"My queen!" Said the scarred pony. After that, he bowed.

Dark looked to see who it was, it only took a second to remember him because of his scar.

"Oh! it's you! And what is it?" Dark said.

"I just wanted to say good luck," He said.

"Thank you," Dark said kindly.

After that, both of them waved their goodbyes and went their separate ways again.
