I can't remember how I got here but when I woke up I was in a room with a purple Alicorn staring at me.

"Finally your awake." said the purple Alicorn.

"Who are you? Where am I? Why do my wings hurt?" I ask, as I get up.

"One question at a time Shadow." said the purple Alicorn.

"How do you know my name?" I ask, as I make my horn glow.

"I know your name because Luna told me, and you don't have to worry I won't hurt you." She said, as she went to grab a scroll.

"How do you know Luna, and how are you an Alicorn!" I ask, as I dim my horn.

"Well I know Luna because I saved Luna, and I'm an Alicorn because I finished Starswirled abearded spell." She said.

"How did you finish his spell I destroyed his only book!" I ask, as I see her come closer to me.

"What do you mean, I finished his unfinished spell in his 5th book of spells. " she said, as she looked at me confused.

"When did he make so many he only had one last time I was awake, oh no." I say relising what happened.

"Well he did have one of his books destroyed but that was over 1,000 years ago . . ." She said, as she looked straight at me.

"So you mean to tell me I was out for 1,000 years!" I screamed.

"I don't know, whats the last thing you remember happening." She asked.

"I remember the Crystal Empire dissappearing, than nothing after I blasted Celestia with all of my strength." I say, as I look outside the window.

"You did what!" screamed the purple Alicorn.

"Does it even matter anymore, I just want to know how am I even alive." I say, as I see a whole new town.

"Well Luna, said something about you being surrounded by pure magic, but I thought nothing of it, honestly they brought you here because neither of them even recognized you." said the Alicorn.

"Then how did you know my name? Oh, and what the hell is yours." I say, as I looked into her purple eyes.

"Well I found a myth about the Alicorn who dissapeared so I kinda geussed it was you. Oh, and I'm Twilight, Twilight Sparkle." Twilight said, as she stuck her hoof out.

"Well thanks for the info but, I'm Shadow Slayer." I say, as I shake her hoof.

"Well Shadow, would you like me to show you around Ponyville?" Twilight asked.

"Ponyville, where the hell is Ponyville?" I ask.

"Well it's relatively small and pretty much in the center of Equestria." Twilight said, as she walked to the door, "So are you comming or not?"

"Sure, why the hell not." I say, as I follow Twilight out of the room.

"So what was it like a thousand years ago?" Twilight asked, with a slight sparkle in her eyes.

"It was pretty much us trying to survive massive attacks from Discord, Sombra, Chrysalis, and even Tyreck  everyday." I say, as I start to frown.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to. . ." Twilight started to say, as I cut her off.

"Hey if I didn't want to talk about it I wouldn't have answered." I say, as I smile at her.

"Well I think you're gonna like it here." Twilight said, as she flew out the balcony.

"Um, Twilight." I say, as I point to my wings.

"Oh, right." Twilight said, as she flew back inside.

"So, has anything really changed?" I ask, as I walk down the stairs.

"Well, I'm a relatively new princess, and Princess Cadence now controls the Crystal Empire, but other than that nothing much has changed." Twilight said, as she showed me outside.

"So what are you the princesses of anyway?" I ask, as I step outside.

"Oh, I'm the princess of friendship." Twilight said, with a grin on her face.

"Ok, so where am I going to sleep after today?" I ask, as I look around and see a bunch of happy ponies.

"Well if you want you can sleep in the castle, but we also have an inn." Twilight said.

"Thanks I'll probably sleep i  the castle though, so where can we eat?" I ask.

"Oh there's this great restaurant up ahead." Twilight said, as she started to pick up the pace.

"Well this is going to be interesting." I think as I follow her.
