Rise and Shine

     Pain and sorrow, that's one hell of a way to wake up. I opened my eyes and closed them again instantly.

Fuck you Mr. Sun, you are too damn bright and surprisingly close.

     "Dammit!" I shouted as I rolled onto my chest to face away from the sun. I don't enjoy yelling but I'm in a pretty bad mood. Being betrayed by your only father figure tends to do that, so does dying.

     I instantly remembered the fight, I stood next to Mercer ready to help kill Heller when that shit stick began to consume me. The pain was extreme and now, it's non-existent.That's a plus.

      I stood to my full height at 6'2" and dusted off my black underarmor jacket. I like to wear hood and the day I was infected was no exception. I now always wear a black storm edition jacket with a orange hoodie underneath. My long bangs got in my face but I cleared it pretty quickly.(I have pretty short hair with bangs down to my eyes).

     I began to look at my surroundings, I was in a small clearing in the middle of a dark forest, YAY( notice the sarcasm). I notice a trail up ahead and began to walk towards it when I heard a faint clopping noise plus a heartbeat. That instantly caused me to hide in a bush.

     A grey stallion walked up and began to look around, probably because he heard my shout (stupid!). I noticed that he had a rather expressive face with a purple and gold mane, not normal. I jumped out and snapped his neck and consumed him quickly, admiring the tendrils that wrapped around his body.

     Memory's began to surface, a name and occupation are most prominent. He is named Map Marker.

He specialised in creating maps, no shit, and he got dared by some friends to map the Everfree. That must be this forest, I don't recognize the name.

     I began to reconstruct his butt tattoo called a cutie mark into the shape of a blizzard symbol made of black DNA strands. He also had wings and knew how to use them, sweet. I changed his coat color to a darker gray to not be recognized. I shifted into this new shape and dug for info to the nearest settlement. Ponyville, how exiting.

     I began to follow the trail, consuming any creature that dared poke it's little face out. As I did this I dug  through the memory's. Equestria: unicorns, Pegasister, and earth pony's living side by side. A magical sun and moon, raised by the two princesses, sisters too. They have a strange government.

They also are incredibly powerful, I better just lay low, maybe start an actual life. I should actually be something, not just a murderer. YAY?!

Hello Viral Anomaly

     I arrived at the town, Ponyville. The name itself makes me retch. As I entered the town my mind decided to tell me that my *cough cough* naughty bits were hanging out. Oh, how wonderful, I hope it's a social norm.

     "Hello! I'm Pinkie Pie..." I ignored the rest because I was more focused on where this pink beast came from. I reentered the conversation at, "What's your name!"

     "My name is Viral Anomaly. Would you kindly move your ass, I'm kinda not in the mood?!" I yelled, the days events finally taking over.

     She sniffled, then she bounced back to happy over-coked mode.

     "Somepony is grumpy, I guess I better make your party extremely awesome!" The only reason I understood her was because of the virus because she talked a mile a minute.

     I just ignored her and began to look around town, ready to gouge my eyes out with a teaspoon due to the color. Key word teaspoon, an average spoon is too pointy. I then heard a sound that surprised me, the sound of something flying really fast accompanied by a loud bang.

     I jumped onto the roof of the house next to me, ignoring the awe struck faces in the streets, and began to sprint to where it landed. The tree it landed had windows and a balcony, one such window sporting an abnormal hole. Everything was a blur (being able to sprint at 90mph tends to do that) and arrived at the tree.

     The sign by the door labels this place as a library, perfect. I jumped from my perch, almost crushing an orange pony with a cowboy hat and no wings or horn: earth pony. She jumped scared of the loud thump next to her.

     "Sorry ma'am." I said, it's better to make a good image than a poor one. She nodded, then looked down, noticing the crater at my feet. "Sorry about that, I need to lose a few pounds I guess."

     I started walking towards the door and she followed, fuck she must be suspicious.

     "What's yer name colt?" She asked with a stereotypical southern accent.

     "Viral Anomaly, yours?"

     "Ahm Applejack, ya ever heard of Sweet Apple Acres?"

     I searched the memories and found it. "Yep, you work there?" I asked.

     "Ah basically run it. Say, what are ya getting here?" She waved here hoof towards the library that was quickly getting closer.

     "I am looking at books about flight and history books. You?" I remembered the name of this country, Equestria*retch*.

     "Are ya alright?" She asked. Fuck I actually retched.

     "Yep, just a slight hangover, a little going away party from home." I hope this doesn't bite me in the ass later.

     "OK, don't throw up on Twilight's books, she'll go bonkers."

     "OK"

     "To answer your question, I'm checkin on ma friend Rainbow Dash, she crashed into the darn place agin."

     She opened the door, and I was instantly met with a blue blur to the face.

Little blue birdie.

     The blue blur happened to be a mare, one that registered as cute. If I start thinking all cutesy, I might just attack the princess so she can vaporize me or whatever.

     "Wow, ya must have one hard head!" Applejack, if you knew how hard we wouldn't be talking.

     "Yep, she didn't stand a chance." I said.

     The mare in question was unconscious after that little collision with my face. She definitely didn't win at headbutt. I finally hurt somebo-pony and it was accidental, dammit.

     "Who are you?" Asked a lavender coat mare with a pink and dark blue mane who sat at a desk in the corner.

     "That's the grumpy stallion I met today that I forgot to name. What is it?" Oh great she's here.

     "My name is Viral Anomaly. You should slow down your speech." I said.

     "OK, you need to leave, I'm setting up your welcome party." She said extra slowly and drawn out.

     "I don't like social events, I probably won't go." I said.

     "My name is Twilight Sparkle, just so you know." Said the lavender mare.

     "You need a party or you won't know anyone." Said Pinkie.

     "How about something small, like ten pe-ponies." I said.

     "Okie dokie lokie, I'll just get my friends bye." She said and then jumped into the cabinet.

     "Why did she-"

     "Don't question it." Said Twilight.

     "OK"I said.

     "Pinkie forgot we where planning a sleepover tonight, just great." Said Twilight

     "Wha...what happened?" Oh look who's awake.

     "Well, welcome to the land kg the living." I said smugly. I am going to enjoy gloating.

     She looked up and saw me giving her a smug smile.

     "What happened?" She asked alot more serious this time.

     "Ya slammed into this feller at top speed and got knocked out." Stated Applejack.

     "What?! No way?."

     "I still don't understand how you didn't even flinch to that?" Damn you Twilight, don't question it.

     "I've done worse, plus I'm pretty hard headed."

     "We're here!" Oh shit!

     "Oh shit!"

I'm Cthulhu, kinda

     Anger. That's all I feel now. You'll never guess why. That perky pink prick is forcing me to go to her sleep over. Fan-fucking-tastic. Now I'm siting in a chair defiantly as they try to coax me out of my hoodie. Like hell I'll shift in front of them.

     "Please"

     "No"

     "But it's so...dreadful."

     "No"

     "Why not?"

     "Because it is a magical artifact that makes me a super genius."

     "Really, well in that ca-"

     "I was kidding and it's still a no."

     Fuck. You. Rarity. She has been begging ever since pinkie got back an hour ago.

     "PLEASE!"

     "NO! Stop whining."

     "This isn't whining." What have I done.

     "This is whining. Wow is me that the awful jacket ruins the atmosphere and ruins this attractive stallions style!"

     "Fine!"

     I focused on being naked and willed my biomass to recoil into my body, covering me in a mass of tentacles. Oh wait, shit!

     "Ahhhhhhh!" That scream probably broke a window. I think the only ponies who didn't scream were Twilight and I.

     "What was that?" Twilight asked after everyone stopped screaming and backed to the opposite side of the room.

     "It was my...biomass." I gave a sheepish smile at the end to fake embarrassment.

     "Biomass? What in the hay is that."asked Applesmack

     "It's the Uh...composition of my body." Another sheepish smile.

     "What are you, a spy?" That rainbow haired cunt got right in my face. "We should blast him with the elements and be rid of him."

     "Elements?"

     "Ya don't know what the elements of harmony are?" Asked Applejack.

     "No, should I?"

     "They are the traits of harmony: honesty, loyalty, kindness, generosity, laughter, and magic." Thank you Twilight, always the dictionary.

     "What would that so to me?" I was getting ready to kill.

     "Probably turn you to stone." Fuck you rainbow, I thought you would be cool.

     "Relax Rainbow. It could yes but first you need to explain yourself now." Chill Twilight.

     OK, I didn't show any abilities so a convincing lie, that'll do.

     "My old friend gave me an enchantment that makes it so I can change my outfit at will." I gave false confidence.

     Twilight looked at Applejack who shook her head no. Fuck.

     "Your lying, you have two more chances to tell us or I'll get the princesses."stated Twilight with a glare.

     The princesses, fuck.

     "OK, I'm a Blacklight." I was actually nervous now.

     "What's that exactly?" Fuck you Twilight.

     "It's kinda personal. I mean no harm, just let me settle. I want to be normal, is that too much to ask?" I out alot of honest emotion into that last sentence.

     "OK, but we're gonna keep our eyes on you." She said with a glare.

     "Yeah, I'm like a nice Cthulhu." For once I gave real laughter.

Rock Bottom

     In life there is always that one moment that signals you hit rock bottom. Everypony took my backstory likening was fiction so as punishment for my "sins" I get to wear a mud mask while they talk about stallions. Rock meet bottom.

     "Now Big Mac is nice, he is the silent strong type. Sorry Applejack."said Fluttershy who cowered after saying it.

     "It's alright, ah'm too tired to care." Applejack couldn't suppress a yawn at the end.

     They continued to do this while I tried to figure out how they spread the mud on my face. Was a brush put in their mouths to do this or was this a lot or of magic. I need to learn how to do ma-

     "VIRAL!"yelled a certain marshmallow mare. Oh great they've been yelling for me.

     "What?"I said as I fake rubbed my ear.

     "I asked: do you have a marefriend?"asked Rarity.

     "No, don't pursue this topic with me. Go talk about how nice quarter pounder ,or whatever his name was, is to look at.

     "Quarter Pounded? Is that even a name?"asked Rainbow. Shit I had the wrong name.

     "It's someone named after a McDonald's sandwich. Somepony you were just talking about." I said.

     "Oh, Big Mac. He's not named after a sandwich."said Applejack. She looks...offended.

     "Is he a friend of yours?" I ask Applesmack who looks at me as if I've grown a second head.

     "Brother, so don't trash talk him or a'll git him and we'll beat the stuffing outa ya."said Applejack. I bet she wouldn't.

     "So Viral, what can you do with this Blacklight thing?"asked Twilight who I have the sneaking suspicion is hiding a notebook in every free spot in the library.

     "It makes me a superior kinda. I don't run out of breath and I don't feel fatigue. Plus I have alot stronger muscles and reflexes."I said as I pushed Rainbows hoof away from my face. "What the fuck are you trying to do?"

     "Nothing, just trying to SMEAR IT!"she shit her hoof forward and tried to rub my mud mask all over the place. Not happening. I dodged under and tripped her back legs causing her to flop to the floor.

     "Ok? So you aren't lying but that doesn't explain the tentacles."she asked.

     "It was my muscles coiling."I made sure to lie but not lie.

     "OK"yes she bought it.

     "Where's Spike? I haven't seen him all day."asked Rarity. Who's Spike?

     "He's in Canterlot helping the princess organize the royal archives."said Twilight.

     "Who's Spike?"I asked.

     "He's my assistant."said Twilight.

     "He's also a baby dragon." Said Fluttershy who finally made her presence known. Damn this mare is quiet.

     "Yeah because fuck it. We got ponies let's have dragons right."I said with a kinda beaten tone.

     "What's that supposed to mean?"asked Rainbow with hostility.

     "Chill skittles, I'm just new to this."I said.

     "Huh?"everypony asked.

     "My story wasn't fake, I couldn't make that shit up if I tried." I said with a smirk.

     "So you worked for a bad guy?"Twilight asked.

     "Who hasn't?"

     "Nopony else has! But you got betrayed?"She asked.

     "Yup, now I'm trying to settle down."I said to try and put them at ease.

     "OK, but I want to see what you can do later. I heard you jumped ten meters into the air and ran at an impressive speed and you didn't even sweat." She said, excitement building at the end of the sentence.

     "Who cares, it wasn't that fa-"tried Rainbow but I cut her off.

     "87mph" I gave her a smug grin.

     "Oh."she just stared at me.

     "OK I'm going to bed." I declared as I wiped my mask all over Rainbow back so she couldn't reach it. I'm evil.

Pony Hunt

     They're hunting me, ironic. The Hunter, is the hunted. Me, Hunter Hendrix, the Manhattan mass murderer. Thank god I snagged that new form. I'm gonna make so many Silence of the Lambs jokes.

     I was currently walking around town, admiring the pony hunt. The guards are looking for a pony that looks like my stallion form. Too bad I changed.

     "Hey sexy, the names golden shield. Do you want to see the stamina of a real guard?"excuse me what. This fuck was wants is being quite blunt. I now hate him. "Hello, ma'am, are you there?"

     "Listen here, you shit speckled Muppet fart, I am in no mood to fuck you. I'm trying to enjoy my show."I said, never removing my eyes from the guards scrambling outside my current position. Turns out that sugarcube corner is the popular hangout spot.

     "Excuse me, do you know who I am?!"he said as his face turned bright red with rage.

     "Yeah, Golden Shield."I waved a hoof dismissively.

     I am a high ranking guard and my family owns hayton tea! Plus I'm protecting you from the armed stallion on the loose! Show some respe-"

     "Let me stop you right there because I don't care. You have already failed at catching him, he is probably hidden it in disguise right now. Who knows the answer might be right under your snout."I couldn't resist, he towers over my mare form.

     "You know him?!"he shouted extra loud, catching everyponies attention. What a dick.

     "No shit sherclop."I'm still trying to get the horse puns down.

     "Come with me right now."he said, and off we went. YAY!, I'm gonna get to see the elements again hopefully.

     On the way out the door I asked, "Can somepony sing goodbye horses?" Of course all I got was an odd look from all the patrons.

     "Listen Goldie, who's the captain of the guard in Ponyville?"I asked.

     "That would be me, do you wish to change your answer to my earlier offer?"he said giving me a sly smile.

     "Nah, I'm into mares."I said which is mostly true.

     We stopped in front of the golden Oaks library, although this time it had guards everywhere. Oh joy.

     "OK, time to spill the beans."he said giving me a sly smirk.

     "Dude that was awful. Let me just say, cliche."he lost the sly smirk instantly and focused on a special knock.

     *thump*thump*thump*

     OK, not special, these guards suck.

Backstory (yay)

     "So Viral, do you know how to play truth or dare?" Seriously Rarity of course I know how to play that.

     "Sadly yes I do." I made sure to put alot of emotion in that, just kidding.

     "OK I'll go first. Viral, truth or dare?" Of course Rainbow jumped at the opportunity.

     "I'm feeling adventurous so dare." I said while I flashed a smile. Everypony else in the room cringed and gave me a sympathetic look. Oh shit!

     "Show me your greatest weapon." That little cunt.

     "So I guess this isn't a friendship. Just an interrogation? Fine." I shifted my right arm into a giant blade. "Happy?"

     "Oh" everypony in the room cringed a bit at the thought of being caught by my blade. I quickly shifted it back.

     "OK, my turn. Twilight, truth or dare?" I asked, most enthusiasm lost.

     "Truth."

     "Wimp" Rainbow said under her breath earning g a quick yet effective glare from Twilight.

     "What's the most alcohol you've ever consumed?" I had to ask. This place needs some vodka to brighten it up.

     "None really, I'm not old enough."

     "On that topic, what's the age to finish high school here?" I am fearing this answer.

     "18, why?"

     "Fuck my life!"

     "Viral Anomaly, watch your language!" Wow Rarity, just wow.

     "What's wrong with that?" Asked Twilight.

     "Nothing" I said. A brief negative nod from Applejack ruined that.

     "Fine, I'm 15 technically." Rainbow burst into laughter.

     "I feel ya, even if I don't like you."said Rainbow. I respect her more now. "I'm 15 too."

     "Viral, truth or dare?"asked Twilight.

     "Why me? I already went."I asked.

     "It helps build friendship. T or D?" She is obviously not a pro text talker.

     "Truth." I relented.

     "Where did you come from?" Oh hardball.

_________Flashback__________

     "Ok Heller, let's end this but first I need a boost." Mercer began to chuckle as tentacles began to circle everyone including me. It took me a millisecond to understand.

     "You bastard!" I yelled at the top of my lungs.

     "You had a good run Hunter, but your days are done goodbye kid."

     Then, black.

One does not simply kill a Blacklight

     I waited until everypony in the house passed out, then I made my exit. Foolish that they wouldn't check on their suspicious monster. I walked right past them to the door, thinking about the advantages of living in a tree.

     "Don't touch...my...cider."said a drowsy voice I recognized as Rainbow Dash. Thank god she is still asleep.

     I walked out to the street, looking for back alleys. I need biomass, it turns out being killed takes alot out of you. I spied one near a store called....What the fuck! Quills and Sofas! How is that place still alive. Fuck I'll call it magic.

     I walked past the ally and heard someone yell, "help, I lost my necklace!" Allow me to help, with my claws!

     "Hello ma'am. What's the problem?" I ask as I approach her.

     "I lost my necklace, my father gave it to me. Can you help me?"she looks sincere but I can see the necklace easily, it's on top of a trashcan plus she seems to glance at it when she thinks I'm not looking. I know your game.

     "I got it!"I exclaim, already knowing my reward.

     "I think that deserves a reward, big boy."she said with bedroom eyes.

     She pushes you down on your ass leaning against a wall. She walks over to you, swaying her hips. It's for naught as right when she is in front of you a stallion jumps around the corner, crossbow tucked into his wing.

     *ping**swish**Thunk*

     "Good job, barbell, you killed him."the mare said over her shoulder to the yellow, muscular stallion.

     They both seem you dead and begin to search for bits. After a while they both give up.

     "I thought you said he was rich?"the stallion says.

     "Loom how clean he is, and he came out of the library. He obviously has connections."she shot back.

     "We killed some useless stallion dammit!"he shouts. OK this has gone on long enough.

     "Ahem!"I shout. "One does not simply kill a Blacklight." Turns out ponies can't do that meme, no hands.

     "What!" They both turn obviously terrified.

     I jumped up and kicked the mare into the wall at the back of the alley to prevent her from escaping, while using her as a platform to tear into the stallion with my claws.

    "Monster!"the mare shouts as she watches me consume the stallion.

    "I'm not your typical Monster, I'm a Blacklight."I consumed her too. Then I began to modify her DNA to look similar to my male form. I made her coat black though. I am in need of a new disguise.
