It was during this time that all was quiet in Ponyville. All the little ponies were asleep say for the few night owls that roam the streets and late night establishments. But soon a storm of their own would be brewing, not that it did it on its own of course. The pagasi weather team must have scheduled a down pour for the evening later in the night. Though it wasn't bad enough like it was in the world of the human. There was one pony who was awake, in her study of her castle, doing her late night research as always. Geez, wasn't there a night that she didn't study late? She was face deep in a book as always, writting down with her magic at the same time. The book she was studying in was called 'A Book On The Latest Creatures To Date' . She was reading through it rather excitedly, but that was the bookworm that is Twilight Sparkle. The princess of friendship, among her other accomplishments and such. She tore her eyes from the book finaly when she heard the sound of thunder and saw the lightning

"Ah, looks like the storm has finally started. Rainbow Dash did mention a scheduled storm to help with the growth of the crops and such."

She just smiled to herself as she went back to her reading and studying. Her, and everyone else was unaware, that big changes were coming to their little town, and soon it would reach Canterlot soon enough. The weather went on and on. What was to happen next, would send shivers down every pony that was within earshot of the human making his entrance, and it was going to be quite the scarey experience. The ground began to shift in a small meadow surrounded by trees, a hand starting to push the dirt up and another beginning to claw at the ground, suddenly a small crater would explode into a lightning bomb, the figure that clawed its way from the crater was shaking fiercely. sobbing quietly at first, crawling around and suddenly gets to his knees, letting out a loud cry as if he had just litteraly been born from the womb, tears streaming down his face as the rain hit his face. He kept screaming and crying as he thrashed about, grabbing at his head as he struggled to get to his feet, his mind racing and his heart pounding.in his chest. Wait...his heart was pounding...He was alive! But that wasnt on his mind right now. He was wondering how he was even coming out of the ground like that. He gets to his feet and stumbles about, breathing heavily and still sobbing like a child, he was scared at what had just happened, his arms visibly shaking as he held himself up on a low branch.

Taylor was still shaking as he let go of the branch and found a path way, a few street lamps lite his way. His eyes shifting about as he was trying to get used to his surroundings, he reached up and touched his face, he felt his cheek and ventured up, a hard like material was covering from his upper chek, all the way up to his forehead. the material and the pieces of metal and the small horns that stood up on the forehead of the mask....this was his mask! But why did he have it on? He reached up and tried to remove it, but it wouldn't budge, the skin wasn't even pulling away as he tried to remove it. He began to shake again, looking around for something, anything, to see his reflection he stumbled over to a street lamp that just so happened to be reflecting a puddle of water, he makes his way to it quickly, tripping over his feet as he soon saw what he had feared. His mask, the one he had created to be his favorite, and the one that was the most terrifying to others...was stuck on his face! And whats worse, his eyes have appeared tro change as well. They were a bright lightning blue and a solid black sclera, this wasn't helping his current situation! his mind and heart began racing once more, his breathing picking up gain and he would let out another scream as what he had come to look like, shaking his head violently. Suddenly lightning began to discharge around his body, sparking an snapping at the air around him and shattering the street lamp's light source.

From the homes of Ponyville and Twilight's castle, the commotion could be heard. The sudden explosion and lightning coming from....the ground? THAT got Twilight's attention. Along with many others. But she was the first on the scene as her curiousity was piqued, What she saw, would have terrified anypony. a tall figure, dressed in black, a long coat and strange footwear that looked like armor, he was a large creature, and had long brown hair that was down to his upper back, and lightning seemed to discharge from him every so often as he would lowly rise to his feet once more.

"What is...that?!" another pony exclaimed as the made it out to see what was going on

Twilight looked to the other ponies that were gathering about in their rain coats or umbrellas. Taylor, startled by the screaming pony, slowly turned to see what was going on, he had a look on his face that could turn the blood in your veins as cold as ice, and freeze you in your tracks. He was bareing his teeth like some feral animal and his pupils became smaller, as if he had a look of intent to kill. But this was far from it. It was a look of terror at what he was looking at, his vision still wasn't the best in this 'new body', though it kind of wasn't new, as he could feel scares under his wet clothing, he slid his coat sleeve of and noticed that those same scars that he recieved from the lightning strike were now healed over and....jet black. He then brought his attention to the lavender alicorn that was in the front of the pack of ponies. That voice...that color. While he couldnt see the others very well, that voice and appearance was quite evident enough.

"Twilight...Sparkle.. but how?" he asked in disbelief.

Twilight tilts her head as she heard him call out her name, she began to approche him slowly, he saw her move closer to him and would begin to inch away from her, shaking his head repeatedly. his body still shaking visibly

"No...nonononono. This cant be real. I died from a lightning strike..I shouldn't be alive right now!" he exclaimed as his low tone along with his screaming makes the ponies step back in fear of this creature. All but Twilight.

She continue to slowly approach the creature, clearly sensing his distress and his panic. He looked down at her as she approached him further, lightning starting to spark from his hands.

'S-stay back Twilight...please I don't want to hurt you. I don't- AAAAAAAGH!!!" he screamed as he felt to his knees once more

Taylor was experiencing something that felt familiar, lightning began to rack through out his body, but it wasn't burning or leaving marks on his body like last time, but it was hurting like a motherfucker. The pain was becoming to great, with the state his was in, and his body was in pain. He looked to Twilight weakly before he felt to his side out of pure exhaustion. After all, he had just came back from the dead, and his body was becoming a living fuse box. After he had fallen unconscious again, Twilight eyed the creature more closely. his body was quite strange. He was a bipedal creature with a bit of fur on his face, and a long mane,e especially for what she assumed was male.

"I...need to get him to the hospital, stat!" she said to herself and would lift him up with her magic, then teleporting them both to the large hospital outside the town, she appeared at the front desk and frantically began explaining what had happened and what was going on

"He...needs...help...please!" she said between breaths

A doctor and a nurse made their way to the front lobby and quickly stopped in their tracks as the saw a large unconscious creature now resting across a full row of chairs, thankfully they didn't have any arms, or else his body would be laying about rather...awkwardly now wouldn't it? His breathing was shallow, and his body twitching ever so often as small sparks would leave his body every now than then. The medical staff wasted in no time in getting him medical treatment, at the same time, very very careful around him. Sure, as medical staff, they had an obligation to help those in need, but at the same time, with the way his body was sparking, they also considered him a threat to both them and their patients

"We will get him settled in and get him some painkillers, and get him out of those clothes, he will catch cold if he stays in them any longer. Make sure they get cleaned as well." The stallion that spoke was named Healing Hooves and the nurse that accompanied him was Nurse Redheart. Twilight Sparkle wanted to follow them to where they were taking him. Her curiousity was one reason, but the other was a slight bit of worry. he...called out her name after all. How does he know her name? This would be something that would bug her until he was final stable enough to have visitors, And if he even wanted any.

Taylor's vision came in and out as long as his hearing. The voices speaking around him as they were talking about him and getting all kind of hings to help aid him in numbing his pain. This was going to be quite a report to tell the princesses, that's for sure. From what Twilight could gather, this creature was new, and potentially dangerous. After all, he could control and conjure lightning it would seem, and his appearance didn't make anything any better.
