The Pony and the shadows

        The sun was shining through the curtains and onto the bed with a lump under the cover, the lump shifted and then groaned in protest. "Why? Why must the sun shine so brightly?!" The lump said, then it moved and sat up to show a brown pony with a messy green and light brown mane.

"Epic, get down hear! Now!" Said a female voice, that sounded like it came from below the bed.

"In a second Mum!" Epic replayed.

"Epic Pony, get down here right now or no food for a week!" Epic's Mum called.

Epic knew that if his mother said his full name it was serious and got out of bed. Epic was a layback kind of guy and what he looked like reflected that, not bothered by the fact that his mane was a mess, he headed downstairs. His cutiemark was a script under a drawing of a dragon's head that was incomplete and had a quill still drawing it.

Epic knew never to keep his mom waiting because she was really strict. "The leader of the tribe just visited and wants to see you" his mother said wile flipping pancakes. Epic loved pancakes especially when made by his mom.

"Thanks for the pancakes mum," he said. His mum was a pegasus pony with pink fur and red eye, and a dark brown and green mane. Epic's eyes were brown and he was a pegasus pony too. (Sorry for the slow discreption!)

        "I hope you like them son, but I want to talk to you about the leader... He can be a little bit of a monster at first but out for all of us here in the tribe," she said, putting the pancakes on the table. (Oops I forgot to tell you about the kitchen!) The kitchen was a large one and most of the sides were, at the time, overflowing with kitchen utensils and the sink wasn't doing much better ether.

        "I know I had to learn about it for a hole week, called 'worship you're leader week' I don't have ANY idea why!" Epic stated in a loud voice.

        "Epic no shouting at the dinner table." She scolded him.

        "Mom... I'm not at school, don't tell me what volume I'm aloud to speak in!" He protested.

        "You will do as I say or else!" She replied.

        "No and you can't stop me! Hahaha!" He yelled.

        "Now you listen hear your father left me in control so I suggest listening to what I say" she retorted, she had him, hook, bait and eye, he respected her but if his dad got wind of any of this he knew he would prefer the scolding he got from his mum. And she knew it.

                                                                                             S-s-S

        "You need to head off now, bye!" She said after they eat the pancakes.

        "BYE!" He said as he walked off.

        Epic arrived at the tribe hall and went inside, and met with the tribe leader Drakonia Hexonganla a black unicorn with blood red eyes and a fire red mane. (All mane and tail colours are the same) and a scythe dripping blood for a cutiemark.

       "Do you know why I called you hear Epic?" Asked the demonic-voiced pony.

       "To talk?" Question Epic Pony.

       "No, not to talk Epic. I called you hear," he said gesturing at the room around them promting Epic to look around the room and he notest the bed in one corner with a cabinet next to it and a mirror behind Drakonia. There was a fireplace near to a couch to the left side of Epic, and that was it, "to tell you something, something you won't like... Hehehe..."

       "*gulp* And that would be...?" Epic nervously asked.

       "I don't want to see you in this village EVER again."

       "... WHAT?! A-are you doing w-what I th-think you are doing?!" Epic asked in a panicked voice.

       "Yes, now go get your belongings and BEGONE! I banish thee from the tribe on suspicion of traterus thoughts and any that stand with you shall suffer the same punishment!"

       "Bu-but sir, I would NEVER betray your trust! A-and I would protect you with my life!"

       "Don't think that you can sway my judgment! Now begone! I WILL PROTECT THIS ENTIRE TRIBE FROM YOUR CORRUPTION!" Drakonia bellowed, starting Epic as he turned and ran home to get his stuff... Today was not a good day so far.

------------------------------------------32323------------------------------------------

       Epic got back to his mother's house and ran up to his bedroom and started grabing anything important to him for his survival. His mom spoted him panicking and said, "Epic what's wrong? Did something happen? Just calm down and tell me what is wrong!"

      But Epic don't listen and keep packing stuff, a teddy, a sleeping bag, and a comb alongside many other items. "Epic Pony stop stuffing your bags and tell me what's wrong!"

      "Mom... I-I've been banished... On suspicion of betraying the tribe..." He said panicking trying to think of what else to bring.

      "That can't be wright... Are yo-" she said befor getting cut off by a loose article of clothing hitting her face.

      "Yes I'm sure! I-I think I'm adiquitley packed!" He mumbled as he moved to the grunt door, "DON'T try to reason with him he will just ignore you!" At that Epic left, unaware of the true meaning of why he was leaving and unknowingly starting a chain reaction that would make everything he knew all make sense. The sun's brightness, the stary skies and the rest of the world.
