So far Equestria's is moving along just find. So why is Rainbow Dash constantly looking over her shoulder? Why is she suddenly afraid the shadows are going to come and get her? That's crazy! Right?

Rainbow Dash is fearless! Everypony knows that! But she suddenly gets a creepy feeling she being watched. She starts seeing things in the shadows; in the dark. Her minds playing tricks on her. That explains it! But then what explains the creepy hooded pony who seems to be following her, and the fact that Celestia is more jumpy then usual. Or the fact that she has nightmares every night about a colt who keeps giving her answers, but leaving her with more questions.

Note: In this series, some events that took place in the show, don't take place in this fanfiction. Therefore, some things are different from the TV show. Also, the cover image was created by me, using some images off the internet and the website picmonkey.

A special thanks to my editor and assistant, Shade Av-Dragen!

Prologue: Shades of Shadows

           There are shadows everywhere, and I'm not talking about the one that follows you around. I'm talking shadows as in ponies; ponies who are around us everyday. We just can't see them, or at least we don't notice them. There are good shadows who make sure that world doesn't get over run by evil. There are also bad shadows who stray from the light, and bring destruction wherever they go. There are two different sides; good and evil. Easy to choose which side, right? Actually, no, its not because the two are so well blended in that you can't really tell what their nature is until its too late. There have been a war between the two for a long time. They fought for so long that nopony knows how many battles there been, they just know that the war isn't over. This war has been concealed in the shadows for thousands of years... until now. The war is being brought to the light. Soon all ponies will have to choose a side. Friendships will be ruined, families will be crushed but it will have to be done. Sadly, it won't be an easy task. Like I said; it hard to tell who is who. A skill that is hard to earn, but worth earning. To know the shades of shadows.
