Chapter 06: Arrangements With Monsters

The scene opens up to inside the castle of friendship, the home of Twilight Sparkle, her family, and where he friends as councils resident in. NeoVamde was there along with Flutterbat & Terrorcreep, Goldie’s group was near the side in watching something amazing happen here. A new connection for the Equestrians and creatures of the night, labeled as monsters that live in a realm country dominion that was the intent to keep them safe…will have a new bridge between two different worlds. This is about as exciting as the day when the Mystics open up a connection to Equestria again after nearly one-thousand or so years have passed.

“So, everything to your satisfaction?” Twilight asked forth the lord of monsters if all meets his request.

“Yes.” NeoVamde nods slowly in stating this fact before going on. “While we may try to help build a better connection-ship with each other, the fact remains that there are still those that cling to the old ways. Such as seen by those calling themselves Princess Bashers.” He explained how that building a bridge between species that are even more outsiders than ponies of Earth, Unicorn, Pegasus & Alicorn, will be tricky, especially those that may not get along with another.

“Yeah, what a stupid bunch! You think they come up with a better group name.” Phobos rolled his eyes to make a remark off those weirdo guys.

“I don’t think that’s the whole point of the discussion here.” Spike pointed that out to his friend in what they are talking about.

“Spike’s right, it’s making sure that both mortal ponies and monster species try not to cause a major warfront with the other. We dealt with some Rogue Mystics that weren’t too happy of joining with us Equestrians.” Ben responded with the issue from a more understanding point of view, having already seen such rebellious behavior from Rogue Mystics from the Mystic Realm that are not fond of the joining their realm with Equestria.

“Even so, we must make sure that in due time, both sides not see the other as enemies, but allies from another place from their own, brethren of our planet, friends if maybe.” NeoVamde nods in speaking these things as a more understanding point of view in what they should try to do for the sides to not be thinking they are enemies. “But as spoken, there will be evil as there is good, and it may show in the form of any side.” He stated how that in any event, evil will sprout wings from mortal or monster kind, the question will be ‘when’ it even begins or how?

“But at least you know some ponies here that live with us said they were sorry for believing you were monsters.” Nyx spoke off in stating about what happened with the angry mob and about what happened in the end.

“She has a point, they said they were sorry and I forgive them.” Flutterbat nods in understanding the claim of what happened.

“Well now, I say this turn out okay.” Rainbow Dash smiled off to say in seeing that all things ended well for them.

“Maybe if we hurry, we can try ta do de Apple Festival again.” Applejack spoke off an idea in what they can do here.

“How about tomorrow night, I still need my beauty sleep.” Rarity suggested they do things the next night, the vampire pony search all night made her miss sleeping.

“Oh I’m not tired. I could keep going on as long as it takes.” Pinkie Pie smiled off to say that she could keep going on and on.

“Right, you must have had some sweets to give you that much energy.” Terrorcreep rolled his eyes in seeing how much energy that one pink pony must carry on her.

“Still, would you like to meet Princess Celestia & Luna? You must not have seen them in almost a really long time.” Golden Heart requested what NeoVamde could do now, visit some old friends from long ago.

“Right, you were there with Princess Platinum during the old days, they’ll surely be happy to see you again.” Pinkamena nods in recalling how how this guy is, they could have a nice chat, but…

“Maybe, but that maybe for another time. I must return to my realm dominion to prepare things of what has slowly started a new path to life for us….mortals and monsters alike.” NeoVamde stated off this so-called claim about what he must do, a meeting with the Royal Sisters will have to be another time. “But you can tell them, that Duke Vonda Eem sends his regards and wishes to chat the next time around.” He stated this with his first showing, of a hearty good smile.

“Wait, is that your real name?” Jack Zen asked off in hearing the guy speak his real name, for the first time.

“According to my calculations, it would appear that NeoVamde is a mix word of Vonda Eem. Records show he was a duke under service with Princess Platinum, as a well-respected stallion of stature and respect to equal near royalty.” Omega explained off what his memory banks recall of Duke Vonda Eem from the past during the Three Tribes struggle of managing their life-style.

“But then, why did you change your name?” Fluttershy asked off in pondering why a pony would change their name to take under a different identity.

“It was because of my change from who I was. Duke Vonda Eem was a mortal stallion who was near death’s door, and only from the element & the encounter with a Vampire Fruit Bat did I reawaken myself, been reborn as a Vampire Pony, I decided to change and call myself NeoVamde…to start a new life role.” NeoVamde explained himself that from his change in contact with the element that choose’d him and from contact with a bat during his near death struggle, he was reborn into a vampire pony…so he would live on.

The others slowly nodded in hearing this explanation and come to terms of understanding it, somehow. The guy was not of his mortal self and decided to start a freshly new life course and that is what made him into who he is today.

“Well, seems like business here is finally settle, guess I’ll go back to my place. It was fun at least hanging with my vampire pony kind while it lasted, maybe 50 or a 100 years later, I’ll be with them.” Terrorcreep shrug off his shoulders in seeing there was nothing left for him here, and he’ll leave since there are issues about him he won’t go into detail.

“Hold it Terrorcreep. I wish to speak with you.” NeoVamde spoke off in stopping the guy from moving away from them.

“Aw man, and here I was gonna get out of here before you chew on me because of my old man.” Terrorcreep sighed in defeat in seeing he was caught, what is he in trouble for now.

“There is a matter to which I speak to you over the verdict, do you know why?” NeoVamde explained off the first statement of this debate discussion.

“Yeah, I know it.” Terrorcreep nods lightly while not looking to please about it.

“Wait, what verdict?” Pinkie Pie asked off puzzled in hearing this out of the blue.

“Yeah, what are you talking about?” Rainbow Dash asked off in not following this in the slightest.

“I believe it has something’ ta involve Terrorcreep’s father.” Applejack pointed out her honest guess in what these fellows might discuss about.

“The dreadful Myotis of the Dark Mystics?” Rarity gasped off in knowing about that evil Dark Mystic who was a vampire pony.

“Come to think of it, you never really told us what happened between you two.” Ben raised an eyebrow towards Terrorcreep & NeoVamde, wondering what the connection was with Myotis.

“Oh yes, they are all vampire ponies, but….” Fluttershy nods in knowing how those guys are older vampire ponies, but their history…might be a different subject.

“How was it that you met, if you don’t mind telling us, Lord NeoVamde?” Twilight requested that the lord of vampires from the Neither-world, tell them the story about his meeting with Myotis.

“It’s another part of history that I kept out that made me realize how much Myotis, the first vampire pony, cause such mayhem that he even drive mortals to hunt & kill us unless we killed & enslave them.” NeoVamde stated off with a serious expression on his face in knowing what horrors were to be told about such a creature like Myotis.

Everyone gasp at this, even Flutterbat was surprise while Terrorcreep look with an expression of self-pity about his family. Soon the tale that was meant to be told, is finally coming into the light.

A scene opens up towards within the throne room of where NeoVamde was seen sitting. He was given word that some new vampire pony of unknown origin came to speak with the lord of the country NeoVamde created. Soon entering the throne room that was filled with those apart of the Moon-Light Army, came a new vampire pony that made his first appearance….and seem to hold some statures feat. It was none other than Myotis as he was seen almost possibly 900 or so years in the past.

“Who are you?” NeoVamde asked forth the identity of this stranger.

“Allow me to introduce myself, I am Myotis. It is a pleasure to finally come forth to meet and speak with you, the renowned lord of all vampires.” Myotis spoke off to give a little bow in the present of one who has nobility.

“You are a vampire pony, I can see much & sense it. But I also sense something extra, something none of the others have?” NeoVamde spoke off with a stone face in seeing what Myotis was, or rather, was something more.

“Yes, indeed, it is as you say. I am actually a creature from the Mystic Realm, a place where those that hold much greater power than those of the Equestrians.” Myotis spoke off in stating that he is not like other vampire ponies, he is as some call…a Mystic.

“Then tell us, why has someone from what the mortals consider a holy land, be doing here?” NeoVamde asked off in getting straight to the point.

“I’ve watch you grow, I’ve seen how much your abilities have risen, and I see you gathered quite an impressive army at your disposal?” Myotis spoke humbly in stating what he has seen of NeoVamde’s development up to now; impressive standards.

“My army is to help keep our kind in protection against mortals that fear us as monsters. It is not for conquering or throwing away their lives.” NeoVamde explained off the meaning of his army being around, for protection, not conquest.

“Surely it should stand to reason, that with this army, you could set out to conquer Equestria…for all Vampire Ponies that are suffering.” Myotis spoke off in stating a mind view of protection against a common enemy the mortal Equestrians. “You can even create and become king of an entire world of monsters than just ruling this dominion.” He spoke that with NeoVamde’s great rise and view of respect from all vampire ponies, he could set out, rule over all as a king.

Many who heard this began to wonder if that could be true, if they did that, they not have to hid in fear.

“You speak things that seem to push my beliefs of you being a Mystic being, further and further away. Just what are you?” NeoVamde raised an eyebrow in finding that Myotis seems different with every word, a Mystic wouldn’t say things like that, not unless…they were going rogue or….down a dark path.

“I see you noticed my difference, it is still true I am a Mystic, but I’m much more.” Myotis smiled off with a sneaky and fiendish aura around him. “I am a Dark Mystic, under the rule of Dark Curse who leads us and is striving to become one of the Lords of Equestria, putting him near the Demon God Grimmore himself.” He explained forth his position with a new band group of Mystics that have gone over to the dark side and where they are steadily growing towards; bear near in-pear with Grimmore himself.

That name caused many in the room to fall silent while some gasp to mumble the words. There isn’t any creature alive, mortal or monster, that doesn’t know the most fearful and most terrifying creature in existence; Grimmore. Even NeoVamde’s expression showed wide eyes in hearing such words, but he continued to gaze at Myotis, trying to see where this unusual vampire pony was going at this.

“Join us, our invitation is open now, and together, we’ll have our revenge on both the Royal Sisters, as well as the Mystic Ponies & Equestrian Ponies. For they enjoy life while we monsters suffer, they will be our servants for all eternity & generations to follow.” Myotis gave this offer to those to consider joining them to have the power to top over all mortal creatures and rule all things.

Many of the other vampire ponies were feeling so lost and unsure, sure they be able to fight for a cause, but then again, would it be worth the risk. These Dark Mystics sound like dark rebels against the Mystics that wanna conquer Equestria, and they are trying to be on comparison to the Demon God, such feats are more unheard of. But would the monsters of the world finally be free of being in hiding, all eyes stared at NeoVamde, for he was the lord of all vampires and monsters…he would make the call of what they do.

“Hmmm….you are dismiss.” NeoVamde remotely stated with a blank and dry expression on his face.

“Hmmm? What is this? Are you ending our talk without agreeing to my proposal of joining forces?” Myotis responded a bit stump and surprise, NeoVamde couldn’t be turning him down, this temptation is too good to pass up.

“While it is true, we could rule this entire world. But then again, it will be a matter of time before an uprising will come and then many of us will die.” NeoVamde explained the issue that going by such foolish actions will only give rise to an oppression to finish the monster race off from ruling a mortal world.

“Surely not, have you forgotten Nightmare Moon’s plan to bring eternal night, we be invincible.” Myotis spoke in reminding the lord of vampires that if they have everlasting darkness, their weakness against the sun would not harm them.

“And yet the mortals would die.” NeoVamde stated in what would happen if the sun never rose, all living things die without warmth, without sunlight to grow food, to grow plants for clean healthy air to breath.

“Then we’ll make them into us and they’ll work as such as divine punishment.” Myotis continued with an ideal plan to turn many of the Equestrians that live as vampire ponies and have them live with torture as many of them have endure.

“True, they would be us, but….would we stoop so low to mistreat our own brethren for that? We were all mortals once, before becoming vampire ponies. To mistreat another would be the same if we were mortals, or worse….to truly live up to their expectations as monsters.” NeoVamde responded that such a matter would keep the Equestrians from dying in a world filled with eternal night, but to mistreat them once they are monsters…would show that they are no better than the mortals were.

Much of the room filled vampire ponies were beginning to have second thoughts about how the discussion was turning out. And Myotis was starting to see he was losing favor because all the vampire ponies in the room, trust & respect NeoVamde.

“And then there is the plot of rising up to be near setting one’s self to be like the Overlord King of Tartarus, the Dark Elf known as Grimmore.” NeoVamde spoke with a seriously stern face in mentioning a creature who is truly, a monster compared to the creatures of the night. “He is an evil that goes beyond both mortal and monster kind, he is truly a Demonic God that only fools sell their souls to.” He stated that no one with actual sense would dare wish to be on equal as Grimmore, it shows they wish to be him. “Now leave this place!” He held out his hoof in commanding that Myotis leave this room at once.

“Hmph-hmph, humph….as you wish….” Myotis made a sly chuckle to stand up, as he was going to do so until… “Grisly Wing!” Then he covered his cape over him and unleash a large swarm of bats heading for NeoVamde’s position.

“Night Raid!” NeoVamde retaliated with his own attack to counter Myotis’s move.

Both attacks collided with countless bats colliding and biting the other. After a few moments, there were no more bats in the room.

“He attacked the lord! Apprehend him!” A captain of the unit of the Moon-Light Army order out to get Myotis that attacked their lord.

“I like to see you try. Bloody Stream!” Myotis smiled off to say while he created two crimson magical whips of energy and strikes in a 360 degree turn motion.

“Waaaghhh!” The guards were sent flying from that impacting force.

“Mwuhahahahahaaahhh!” Myotis let off a maniacal laughter before swinging his energize whips right for NeoVamde’s throne.

“Crimson Lightning!” NeoVamde spoke off to stand and then summoned forth his own version to block and counter the enemy before him.

“Interesting counter, you seem to have master the stronger techniques of being the user of that which once belong to me.” Myotis smiled off with an evil gleam of approval in who has such power, especially one that was once in his possession.

“What? What are you saying?” NeoVamde asked forth in hearing this, what more nosiness does this enemy have to say.

“I am saying, your power and moves, some are different by name, but they were those I also acquired from being the once user to the Element of Moon-Light.” Myotis explained that he was once a user to the element that NeoVamde now possess.

This action caught even NeoVamde’s attention, so Myotis was once the wielder of the element he controls. That explains how their moves are semi-somewhat identical if not named differently and as such other.

“Now….Dead Scream!” Myotis spoke to hold up his cape which unleashed a ghostly black creature at the target that was distracted.

“Nightmare Claw!” NeoVamde had also performed the same move to counter his foe from trying to paralyze him.

Both attacks canceled the other out before vanishing completely out of sight.

“So then…you were the true original vampire pony of long ago?” NeoVamde raise an eyebrow in seeing it, Myotis was the older vampire from long ago that brought such terror to mortals to start hating and fearing the monster race.

“Yes, but I saw another path to take and became a Dark Mystic, but those foolishly Mystics denied my destiny to allow me to keep the element and hidden it where I could not find it.” Myotis remarked off to explain how he had so much, but he was stripped of the power he once possessed. “But then I saw it, and you, as I bear witness you being its next wielder, the power that should have stayed mine.” He explained with a frown in how some Equestrian was given that element that holds much power that is like having control of the night & moon.

“If that is true, then why appear now before me?” NeoVamde asked off why this foe was here to challenge him then not long ago.

“I was planning to let you keep my element for our own needs, but if you refuse now, then I’ll take it back.” Myotis explained forth this notion while beginning his next attack. “Bloody Punch!” His left hoof glowed crimson with magic energy before launching up to strike.

“My answer will not change. Crimson Punch!” NeoVamde responded to say while he also prepared the same move but was named differently.

“Powwfruvhmm….” Both powerful vampires clash their fist powers that shook the entire room before it blew Myotis back from where his opponent stood.

“We can fight for as long as we can, but I know every ability you have is the same as my own.” Myotis explained that he knows all of the moves that his opponent can try, they are both knowledgeable of the element’s gift it grants them.

“I wouldn’t be so sure of that!” NeoVamde declared that such a method was not true in some cases. “Crimson Steam Glade!” Then he soon did a surprise move against Myotis, his right hood extended its limb reach.

“Powwfruvhmm…./Grrr….” And that attack impacted and grasp Myotis without his alert notice. “What? Extended limb ability, but I never had such a power!” He stated from never acquiring that ability, what was this?

“I’ve learn things from gaining the element and the transformation of being a mortal to a vampire pony…by a simple bat’s contact.” NeoVamde explained forth that he gain a few surprises that not even Myotis knew about. “Now strike, my Evilvils!” He announced forth in wanting his own creatures to aid him.

Then the Evilvils appeared from out of nowhere and launch on to suck Myotis’s magic energy and when done, left and merge with NeoVamde…making him glow and get stronger.

“Grrr….what has happened…to me?” Myotis groans from feeling his strength was zapped away.

“While we can both summon bats to our aid, the Evilvils are familiar spirits to me. They take your magic energy and give to me to feel stronger. And my powers are enhanced because of both the night & lunar light that I can fight even against a Mystic. Now, to end this…” NeoVamde explained how he has developed things that not even the original owner of the Element of Moon-Light had, so now, he’ll end things. “Giga Guardiac Raid!” As he spoke this, a stronger version of the Guardiac Raid appeared as a large black/violet sphere and unleashed an exploding dark ray beams.

“Pussfruvhmmm…./GRAAUUAAAAAGHHH….” The attack impacted Myotis to the point he was sent flying while he screamed. “Bashfruvhmmm…” Then outside, was a destroyed wall area before Myotis was seen struggling to get up while NeoVamde approached outside the hole.

“Myotis! Though you are a vampire pony, your ways of thinking will cause us harm if they haven’t already. For the crimes of such, I hereby banish you and all your family from the Underworld.” NeoVamde declared this note of action against one that shall be treated as a criminal. “This place will not be succumb to your manner of what justice is to monsters, it is nothing but a selfish goal.” He stated that he will not allow this monster, a real one, to bring forth more ruin to what he’s created to protect his vampire and monster race.

“Humph, very well…I will leave your dominion, I can see that I should have killed you and stole the element back when I had the chance.” Myotis remotely stated in seeing this was his lost, and realizes his own mistake in the making. “But make no mistake, no matter how many years go by, I shall reclaim what is mine, your power…your dominion, your rule….they’ll belong to a true king of Equestria & the Mystic Realm. We Dark Mystics shall continue to thrive and get stronger, you best be prepared!” He made a vow to someday return and reclaim what is his while also promising that he and the Dark Mystics shall rule over all things.

Then Myotis began to vanish in a cloud that became a flock of bats while flying away into the darken night sky. NeoVamde saw the treacherous vampire pony leave, never to set foot or hoof in his dominion or cause trouble again.

“Afterwards, I never saw Myotis again, but I kept getting stronger throughout the passing centuries and decades…all while my country grew more and our strength also grew to become formidable.” NeoVamde’s narrative voice is heard explaining what had happened on that forthcoming. “I may not have like mortals, but even I knew that slaughter was not the way against those not truly guilty of crimes and turning them into vampire ponies only to be treated eternally as slaves was far worse. As a lord, I knew even then what was right and wrong, all while I still continue to protect my own monster kind from all mortals and Mystics alike.” He explained his tale as everything began to fade away, as if being the end of what happened long ago.

The scene returns to the present where everyone has heard the tale of what happened in the past between NeoVamde & Myotis. Truly it was something out of a tale of two legends from the past, and that explains what happened with Myotis and how things effected Terrorcreep. Now the bigger picture here is, what will the discussion turn into with the son of such an evil father be as retribution.

“Goodness, I never knew that even happened before I came here? Is that much true, Terrorcreep.” Flutterbat spoke in surprise while wanting Terrorcreep to confirm the evidence heard.

“Yeah, thanks to my dad, I was also banished from the monster realm because I was too much a danger to mortals in how I treated them, I may not have been a Dark Mystic, but never much one to be favorite by Mystic Ponies either.” Terrorcreep nods lightly in admitting his faults and the guilt that was place on him for what he has done while living under the guilt his father performed.

“That is why I want to fix the manner. From seeing your action & your performance, it is clear…the sins of what started lie with your father, not to you…his child.” NeoVamde spoke froth this that caught many of the others' attention by surprise, what did that mean. “Therefore, I will order that your banishment from entering the monster realm to be lifted. You can come and be with your own kind whenever you choose.” He was vetoing the banishment set on Terrorcreep for being the son of Myotis, so now the guy can come and be with his own original kind besides the Mystics.

“Hugh…re-really?” Terrorcreep responded off in almost being so shock to hear and believe this; he almost pinch himself if this was a dream. “Man, after almost 500 or so years, I’ll finally be able to set foot in my own home turf…for all vampire ponies, and them other monsters too!” He stated in how many long years it’s been for him since he was last within his own home realm of vampires and monsters.

“Congrats Terrorcreep. But don’t think that doesn’t mean you don’t have friends here too.” Goldie smiled to congrats the guy while reminding him that he also has friends here to, not just those in the Neither World or Underworld place.

“Right, your home is were friends are, am I right?” Ben nods in stating this fact of who they consider Terrorcreep of being.

“Heh, yeah…so you say Ben.” Terrorcreep laugh off a bit in hearing what Ben said, he does have friends here.

“Now that the matter is settled, it is time we return to our realm. Coming Terrocrreep?” NeoVamde solemnly spoke this out while addressing if the Mystic Pony wishes to come along.

“Eh, I’ll go when I feel like it, but thanks for the lift.” Terrorcreep waved off to say that he can go to his home realm anytime he wishes now.

“Very well then. Then let us be off Flutterbat, your home awaits you.” NeoVamde nods to Terrorcreep’s decision while he prepares to move and awaits the new Vampire Pony to come along.

“Um, can I say something?” Flutterbat spoke out in which made NeoVamde cease his movement for him and everyone else to look aback at her. “I…wanna a wish…or more likely ask….to stay in this world of mortals.” She asked this out of nowhere which really caught everyone by surprise.

“What?” NeoVamde responded in surprising shock of hearing that request. “But you are just newly born, you still must go under tutelage and experience to handle surviving in this world.” He issued in reminding Flutterbat that she is still inexperience in the ways of how to survive.

“I know, but….I just feel….like those here. They remind me of my old friends….from my alternate world.” Flutterbat nods in understanding the message, but she feels like her place is here…strange as it sounds. As if the Mane Six were like her old alternate version of friends.

“Gee, you know I can relate with you. I’m from an alternate world and while my friends from my place are gone, I ended up coming to a new world here and made the same friends.” Pinkamena nods in understanding Flutterbat’s position, she had pals and left to find a new home, and here she is.

“Hmmm….is this what you…truly wish?” NeoVamde slowly spoke in taking in all the facts to see if that is Flutterbat’s wish.

“Uh-huh. After you helped my mind be develop from my bat instincts and coming to know these ponies…I feel like I wanna help out here.” Flutterbat nods to say this as her own will mind to think of thinks, that she wants to help those she feels she can become…friends with.

“Very well, then I shall request one here to keep you say. You, Pinkamena.” NeoVamde nods to agree while he points to the other pink pony in whose attention is focus on. “Even though Flutterbat is a vampire pony, the fact you two are alternate world versions of the originals, perhaps her being kept in your home would be better than out on her own.” He explained that since both Pinkamena and Flutterbat are two alternate world versions of Pinkie Pie & Fluttershy, they should be together, for the new vampire pony’s safety with one who knows how to handle this prime world they are in.

“Wow, that sounds great. And don’t worry, I have memory about how vampire ponies can be train and such, so I can help her out here!” Pinkamena smiled off to say in not letting the lord of vampire ponies down, she can help show Flutterbat the ways to survive.

“Good. And Flutterbat…” NeoVamde nods to the pink one’s words before focusing on the yellow vampire pony mare. “If you should ever be in trouble, to only contact me & if there’s big trouble, my army will aid.” He issued in offering aid should something happen that calls his attention on hand.

“I will do so if necessary, my lord.” Flutterbat bows in feeling honor by this offer by NeoVamde, the lord over monsters.

“Until then, all of you will know this.” NeoVamde spoke in now addressing everyone in the room on him now. “You now have a powerful ally should there be problems or concerns involving the monster race. Farewell.” He issued off in having this state that if there is trouble, simply reach him and he shall aid those in peril before saying his goodbyes.

“Pooofrvuhmmm…” Then without warning, NeoVamde turns into a cloud of smoke that spreads off into bats and escapes out of the castle, where a mysterious cloud of darkness surrounds the bats. As they were leading off to somewhere to return to their realm while the dark clouds cleared away when out of sight.

“I guess he’s gone home.” Jack Zen stated in knowing what NeoVamde did just a moment ago.

“That would be the logical conclusion.” Omega nods to say in what they know to be the logical view of the matter.

“Everyone….I hope you can forgive me for ruining your festival.” Flutterbat spoke to say she’s sorry for all the trouble she caused.

“Eh, water under the bridge.” Rainbow Dash shrug off to say in feeling like they are over that issue.

“Right, ye weren’t right in de head.” Applejack nods in agreement on the issue itself.

“Yes, but now your all better.” Rarity stated with a smile on her face.

“And you’re our pal.” Pinkie Pie happily responded to say this with good intention.

“Yep, our second vampire pony friend.” Nyx stated with joy, now they have another friend who’s a vampire pony.

“Right after this guy we had a hard time getting along.” Phobos pointed off that they have hard times getting along with Terrorcreep.

“Ha-hah, I get the picture already.” Terrorcreep rolled his eyes to sarcastically remark that joke at him.

“Still, welcome to our neighborhood.” Spike stated off to say this to the new mare.

“So you’ll be staying with Pinkamena & Golden Heart?” Ben stated in knowing where Flutterbat would be residing in.

“Yes, we’ll get her to our place, while you all focus on how to help the apple festival again.” Golden Heart nods to say what they’ll do to get a vampire pony to their place and shield her from the sunlight that’s out at this morning daytime.

“Right, now we’ve made a new accomplishment.” Twilight nods to say while knowing what else they’ll do here. “Setting our sights high to help befriend another race, means they’ll be more allies to help us keep Equestria safe from evil, like the Three Lords.” That was a big issue, it means they’ll be stronger to protecting their home against very strong evil forces. “I’m glad we could help settle things to that extent.” She spoke in knowing that with this, things can help be a little more easier for the gang.

The others nod in agreement to that term, so in the end, pretty much, everyone got something out of this. And pretty much, the group goes into another meeting to discuss how to setup another night for the Apple Festival while the scene goes dark…as this will take a while to get done after the other event that played out; oh well.

The scene opens up towards Pinkie Pie’s secret dungeon, where Goldie’s gang return to find Sombra had rejoin with Autumn Gem and they were with Havis. Pinkamena was seen having Omega bring in a long cargo box before setting it down on the ground, and was about to get a crowbar, but…. The box suddenly moved and then something bashed it with enough force that the top went flying, miss the gang, and something lifted upwards from a lying position. And then from opening the wings, it let off a hiss with scary eyes, Autumn Gem & Sombra looked spell-shock while Havis seemed surprise, that box held a vampire pony, and it was none other than Flutterbat. But then what seem like a scary surprise attack was the new mare stretching herself from feeling cramp aches.

“Oh, sorry, I was just so stuffy in that crate, I felt relieved to get out.” Flutterbat spoke in apology in seeing what she did and that she was glad to be out of that cargo crate box to stretch herself, she maybe undead to not need air holes, but still the space inside could be better.

“Don’t worry guys, she’s harmless.” Goldie spoke to remind the others that Flutterbat is now a nice vampire pony, not a scary wild and evil one.

“Well, that certainly scared me half to death. Twice in a day or two in this week.” Autumn Gem sighed with some relief in hearing this news from almost falling again from the same scared trick.

“Indeed, and I suppose you’re the new guest staying with us. Welcome, and…sorry for harming you back at the festival grounds.” Sombra nods in agreement while acknowledging that they heard they have someone else be with them and apologized from what he did to Flutterbat last time.

“It’s fine, my wing’s healed and you did it to protect the one you love.” Flutterbat spoke to show her wing that was hurt and she understood why Sombra did that in the first place.

“This is truly a surprise, I never thought we include a vampire pony in our group.” Havis spoke in seeing what they have here, it is certainly a new addition.

“She’ll most likely be doing on some night works when it’s dark, going out into the sun light won’t be good for a vampire pony.” Jack Zen stated in what Flutterbat can do for them, mostly night work since vampire ponies don’t like being out in the sunlight.

“Right, besides, she’s just new and we’ve been asked to take care of her while she stays here by the lord of all vampires and monsters himself.” Goldie shrug off his shoulders to issue what they are asked to do by NeoVamde, and it’s a big order from a guy that acts lord to all monsters.

“No sweat, I can help. And I’m really glad I have another buddy that is like me.” Pinkamena smiled off in stating that this was okay for her to handle with.

“But you both are two opposites of your originals from two alternate worlds and you are ageless and she is a vampire pony.” Omega pointed out the facts about how Pinkamena and Flutterbat are two otherwise very different ponies from everyone else.

“Yep, and that’s what makes us special. So welcome to the fold Flutterbat.” Pinkamena nods from liking the difference with a slight connection to being from an alternate world version, and welcomes Flutterbat to their home.

“I will…try to be helpful…and a good friend to you all.” Flutterbat smiled off a bit in accepting her new stay and friends here.

“Still I heard what those Princess Bashers did.” Havis stated with a frown on his face in what he had heard went on.

“They were awful for almost trying to act out from their critic ways towards Celestia!” Autumn Gem stated with a stern frown in not liking those guys, not one bit.

“I wish I could give them a piece of my mine!” Sombra stated with an upset tone in wanting to make those guys pay for such trouble that could have been avoided.

“Oh don’t worry, I already did that.” Pinkamena smiled off to say that she already took care of that issue.

The others stared at Pinkamena from hearing that claim and could almost instantly imagine…that the mare did something to symbolize as payment and payback for what the Princess Bashers have caused. But what it was, only Pinkamena would know for sure.

Meanwhile in a building that was used as some gathering spot for the Princess Bashers, they have retreated to their own private sanctum. After the issue of the vampire pony to get the crowds to see Ceelstia’s weakness of ruling them, they’ll have to try something else.

“Unacceptable! Celestia is weak! And so are those that stand up to her, just because they have been given such privileges. They think they are big shots because of stopping such evils, but who is it that targets their attention, Celestia and her allies, that’s who. Hugh, this day has left me very stress out!” The leader of the Princess Bashers complained off in what had happened to them, they lost their moment and now they don’t know when they’ll have another uprising.

“Maybe this can cheer you up, sir.” The second-in-command spoke before bringing in in a box gift for them.

“What’s this?” The leader asked off in not knowing what the gift is, he never ask for anything.

“Don’t know, it was left outside for us.” the second-in-command shrug off his shoulders in not knowing what this was either?

“Well, guess it couldn’t hurt to open it.” The leader of the Princess Bashers remotely spoke off in guessing it wouldn’t hurt to see what they are given; maybe by an admirer of their commitment.

The members open the gift before something flash up to appear like fog, then it showed strange female eyes. But then when those eyes open up, did terror come from it along with…a voice message.

“YOU’RE TIMES UUUUUUP!” The freaky eyes spoke with sounding like Pinkamena’s voice of what she says to those with her known technique.

“Waaaaaughhhh!” Outside the building, there were the sounds of many screams sounding in terrified horror. “BRRRR….BRRRRRR…BRRRRR….” And then afterwards, many seem to have caught the ‘Brrrr’ effect from what was clearly a move set by Pinkamena.

Back at the dungeon area, Pinkamena was secretly letting off a giggle of having felt like there surprise gift was opened by the critics, and boy did they get a surprise alright. And those that saw this sneaky action knew what might be up.

“She must have sent them her message.” Goldie slowly spoke off in knowing what his sister must have done at the time.

“I hate to see them after that.” Jack Zen smiled off in wishing he been there to see the look on those critics' faces.

“They’ll be out of the way for a while or until another story involving them shows up.” Pinkamena broke the fourth wall to state out while confusing everyone. “Come on Flutterbat, I’ll help you get settle in.” She spoke off in wanting to help her new alternate world friend who’s staying get settle.

“Okay.” Flutterbat nodded as the two were about to get going until...she spotted an apple on the table nearby. “Oh, an apple.” She took the apple with her long extended tongue, suck the juice out by her fangs to leave nothing left.

“Um, we better have loads of apples for her.” Autumn Gem sheepishly spoke in seeing they’ll have to have plenty of fresh apples to keep their new vampire pony friend happy & well feed.

“Right, and may I suggest some self-defense classes.” Havis nods in agreement while suggesting something to help Autumn Gem out.

“Indeed, I can help be your training partner.” Omega nods in stating if the mare likes, she can practice with him to get the knowledge in self-defense down.

“Thanks you guys.” Autumn Gem smiled off to say this to her friends.

“Are you sure about this?” Sombra asked in wondering if his love really wanted to learn about fighting.

“I wouldn’t wanna be a burden, not to you or anyone.” Autumn Gem spoke her reasons while she lean in and gave a kiss to Sombra to convince him.

“Well, alright.” Sombra slowly blush to shrug off in thinking it might not be bad for his love to be better aware of any attack.

“Guess that’s about it here. And Jack, thanks for the aid out there.” Goldie shrug off to say while he also wanted to thank his guard friend for the aid work during the finding Flutterbat.

“My pleasure.” Jack Zen responded off in happy to have been a service.

The scene fades away with much around the area having been settle and completed; with something good and new added to the moment.

Soon back in the Neither World, we find ourselves at NeoVamde’s castle again where some familiar scattered bats were making a scene. And from their flapping path, they were merging on contact with the ground of the balcony. Soon it wasn’t long before they took the form of NeoVamde, and afterwards, he opened his balcony doors to enter his own castle home. Upon entering, there was Johnson that was nearby who saw his lord and master’s return while he was setting everything up with a few chores & whatnot other things to do as any butler does.

“Sir, you’ve return. But…where is the new vampire pony?” Johnson spoke in seeing whose return, but was expecting another with him.

“Do not worry, she is in safe condition. And also…” NeoVamde spoke to state the matter over Flutterbat while bringing up another discussion.

“And also….” Johnson repeated in becoming curious to hear this.

“Many things have happened that I shall begin an announcement to all monsters within the Neither-world that a new change has come.” NeoVamde declared off in stating what will be happening; namely a joining of monsters and mortals.

“A change sir, for what?” Johnson asked off with a raised eyebrow in not knowing much.

“I met them during my search, those that are the users to the Elements of Harmony, Celestia’s child, and many others.” NeoVamde stated off to explain about his meeting with Twilight’s group of friends and the way they do things…seems to have help open his eyes. “They showed something I felt like it was impossible for our species to co-exist, but it seems…that dream is not impossible after all.” He explained the meaning of where their races, though different in every way, cannot find balance to live together in harmony.

“I see, then what will happen from now on? May I be so bold to ask?” Johnson asked off in becoming very curious of this chat.

“As I said, change is coming, and with it…many possible movements of good or bad.” NeoVamde stated in how things will work out, for either the worse or the better, depends of what actions to be taken. “Which is why I will need aid to make sure, neither monster nor mortal species shall begin their hatred over the other by Myotis’s doing. I’ve even allowed his son to be welcome here.” He stated forth the reasons along with one more surprise in the chat.

“Myotis’s son, you mean Terrorcreep?” Johnson raised an eyebrow in being surprise to hear that name again.

“Yes, I may have banish the family members, but he showed he is nothing like his father. If something like that is possible, then not all maybe lost.” NeoVamde stated to approach his window to look out, stating if one kin of an evil blood can be able to turn away from an evil line, then hope exist for them. “Now let us prepare.” He turn to his butler that they must make the preparations.

“At once, Lord NeoVamde.” Johnson bows to his lord in hearing and obeying the commands.

As Johnson was leaving to prepare things, NeoVamde left out into the balcony where he observe his entire dominion. Flash images entered his mind of the Tribe Rulers he knew in the past, as Duke Vonda Eem, to even the now images of those he knows presently that are around to those that are new. He lets off a small sigh of relief before speaking of his own train of thoughts at the beautiful night sky.

“Princess Platinum, I may not have reflected of my past, but I’m hoping…you and the others watch over to aid my work.” NeoVamde humbly spoke in a noble meaning while almost speaking up to those long since pass away. “The different species…we are each strong in our own way, but can be stronger together…I shall put trust…with this new generation.” As he spoke this, he held a crystal ball that showed Twilight’s group; having their new apple festival and having a good time. The lord of all vampires & monsters, shall believe that the newest generation that is the Mane Six, can help do what none else in the 1000 years have done; that is what he’ll believe in now.

With that, NeoVamde returns to quarter chamber to where the doors slowly shut behind him with many new thoughts entering his head. For things are about to change, maybe for the better, maybe for the worse, but one thing is for certain….if one does not help welcome change, then it’s the same as being confounded to even a vampire pony’s coffin. Even vampires need to come out once in a while, and while not in the sunlight, there will be a new ray of hope….in which another species shall join in the aid with another to bring peace and prosperity to each pony society. And with that, the scene closes here with an end and beginning…

The scene of what is a discussion of NeoVamde & Myotis is base around when Sigma & the General chatted during the start of Megaman X4 game.

And thus, the fic is story. Hope you enjoy. Okay, I've got not one, but two fics to work on. Here they are...

"Total Drama Equestria 2: Old Versus New: Chris has been turned into a pony, and in order to break the spell, he must host ANOTHER season of Total Drama in Equestria. Teaming once again with Discord, Celestia, Luna and the Mane Six, they bring together the new cast from Pahkitew Island, who in turn, selects fourteen players from the old cast from the first five seasons. Will the mystery of Chris' mysterious transformation be solved, and who will win this insane season? Plus, will Chris and his hosting team be able to tolerate their new intern?
Villains: TBD in terms of the game, TBD in terms of the main story"

I am working on that with Orange Ratchet. But besides that, got this too...

"A Conversation of Awesomeness: (one-shot, crossover with the 'My Little Heroines' series) Twilight decides that she wants to pay Blossom's universe a visit. What she didn't expect was Rainbow Dash crashing in to see what is going on. At that point, she makes contact with a girl named Buttercup, a tough heroine whose life seems almost similar to hers. Will Blossom and Twilight be able to handle when these two meet face to face?
Villains: Numerous villains discussed by Twilight, Blossom, Buttercup and Rainbow Dash (mentioned only)"

That should be it. And until next time, read, review and suggest!
