Love and Death

“I need you, the foals need you,”

“No Rex, don’t go, don’t go,”

“REX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

“Luna!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” Rex’s shouted as he woke up from the dream. He look around the ruins he was worried that Discord might return, but then he saw Grogar.

“Good you’re alive,” Grogar stated to him,

“Yeah what of it, you would still bring me back from Dead, if I die again. What am I, a twist joke to you?” the Corpse replied to him.

“No!,” the goat stated as he laughed.

“Then fix my wound and let me leave these ruins so I can find Luna,” Rex demanded,

“No, not without you agreeing to my deal,”

“I will tell you the same thing I told you for last eight years, I will never agree to those terms,” Rex replied back,

“Find then I will you will just keep bleeding out, die again and then bring you back once more,”

“Damn it, then why can’t you let me stay dead, or at least heal my wounds?”

“ If I did heal you then you would run away to find Luna,”

“Of course I would run to get away from you, you demon, I would run away and go find Luna and my children,”

“Why do they matter so much to you, they all believe you’re dead?”

“Because they are my family, I care for them,”

“You don’t even know what your children even look like,”

“It does matter they are mine and I will Love them and keep safe, father’s duty is to his children, can’t you understand that,”

“Yes I actually can for I have a son of my own, but he doesn’t----“ Grogar stopped before he could finish.

"What, what is it?" Rex ask,

“Silence somepony, heading this way,” Grogar whispered as he cast a shadow spell to camouflage them. Just then a ruby colored Alicorn with platinum mane walked the ruin of the Canterlot Castle.

“It looks like Prince Blood Diamond and his royal guards have returned again,” Rex whispered.

“Why would he be here again, he already found all the pieces of Redsting Blacklist, what else could he be after,”

“Sir I just got the news that Princess Luna has token her children and left Equestria in search for the Element, meanwhile Princess Celestia has gone to the Everfree Forest in search for the other six” the guard stated to Blood Diamond,

“Good, then neither of them will see the castle ruins burning, now let get it done before Discord comes back,”

“Yes your Majesty,” the guard stated as he to lite the flames.

“Once Luna realizes that there is no way she can bring back her dead fiancé, she finally given and she right for the picking, then when the time is right I will swoop in and claim her as my wife, and I will make those Hybrid children of hers disappear,”

“Damn it, I would kill him if I could move,” Rex whispered angrily,

“Hmmm, look like I will have to accelerate my plan, if you want to stop him,” Grogar whispered as he look at Rex.

“Fine then what ever you want just help me save my family,”

“Of course, now let's go,”

“How, we are surrounded by flames,”

“Simple we go thou the Shadows,” Grogar stated as he rang his bells, and then out the Shadows rose forth his loyal zombie zebra servants, as they lifted Rex’s still bleeding body, and then all them went into the Shadows as the Canterlot Castle ruins went up in flames.
