Previous ChapterNext Chapter

The night was young and the air was crisp and cool, the moon shined brightly in the sky and the sounds of peace was heared through the night air. I was sitting on the roof of my house gazing into the night sky, never ceases to amaze me its like a painting that never gets old or like a member of the family you hold dearly.

"What are you doing up steel?" Luna asked me as she climbed up from ladder on the house, she sat next to me and I shrugged. "Whats going through that head of yours steel?"

"Ah its nothing just admiring the night sky its always beautiful, I like the stars that shine with it without them I'd find the sky boring save for the moon" I said and luna pouted cutely and leaned on my shoulder adding more of her weight. "What are you doing?" I asked the mare as she continued.

"You said my night sky would be boring so Im putting all my weight on you as punishment" Luna said and she got a little heavier then she stoped not even close to heavy, I looked at her with an amused grin.

"Go ahead I'll just be your pillow to lay on... but I still would think the night would look beautiful and mesmerizing even if the starts weren't their so dont be all upset" I said and she lighten her weight up just a bit. "We should probably head to bed, Im getting a little tired" I said and snapped my fingers making us appear on the bed twilight was home studying and frost had to go to canterlot for business to cover for luna. I stripped out of my cloths and put on some black pajama pants while luna removed her cloths leaving me to stare at a dark blue panties and bra. We got in bed and turned off the light then slowly started going into the dream world however I had a different arrival.

(Dream realm- the queens prison)

I was poked a few times on the cheek making me groan and open my eyes only to meet a light blue pair. I blinked and they blinked, "Seem's you've woken up" Stardust said and rose back up I got to my feet and looked at the sisters.

"Is their something you need girls?" I asked them and was tossed a book and a letter, I looked at the book and it was quite old due to the it had a blue swirl and a golden star etched onto the book and writting in gold letters. "What is this?"

"That is starswirl the bearded's journal it is his legacy he left behind but we had to hid in so that it wouldnt fall into wrong hands... ryle was actually the one who gave it to us and said something scary that still haunts us to this day" Faust said and the sisters shivered at the thought, what did ryle say and why did he have the book.

"What did he say?" I asked.

"Well it actually involves twilight... he said and I quote, 'Give this to a purple mare with dark purple hair with a hot pink and dark violet line through her mane and tail she will know what to do and how to finish it'" Faust said and sent shivers down my own spine. "He knew twilight before any of us knew about her and he had a look that meant seriousness so we took it and hid it away deep in our archive" She said and I looked at the book and flipped through it until I landed on a page with half a spell written on it.

"A spell that hasnt been finished... I guess I should give this to twilight tomorrow morning" I said but stardust shook her head. "Why not?"

"You must give this book to her without her knowing understand, she might think your up to something and ask you were you got it from and you cant really say, oh sorry just got this ancient book that was written by a famous wizard over a Millenia ago by two all powerful beings... so yeah sneak into her house and plant it" Star said and I shrugged.

"I can do that... wait if you had this the whole time, why havent you given it to her yet?" I asked them and they both gave uneasy laugh's.

"We kinda, maybe, sorta... lost it a few hundred years ago and just now found it" Startdust said and I just face palmed at the sisters. "Look just know we found it now were asking that you give this to her now hurry" she said and I nodded before walking out the door and began waking up.

(Real world)

I opened my eyes and felt something cold on my chest letting me know the book was there, I got out of bed as quiet as possible then put on some cloths along with a white hoodie. I brought the hood up to cover my face then I snuck out the house and began making my way to twilights house, a few ponies were up and walking about either on a date or just hanging out at the bronco pub getting drunk. It was almost like my father hadn't even showed up a few days ago but I guess they dont really wanna talk about it since a group of ponies died by his hand, stupid sons of bitches should have saw that coming for hitting zecora.

As I walked I felt like I was being followed by someone so I turned only to be met with nothing. I wasnt convinced so being my stealthy self I summond one of my assassin gauntlets and rolled up my sleeve so they know Im armed, when no one came up I turned and began walking away no longer feeling the presence of my stalker.

I still had some kind of feeling like if something was going to happen but I decided to put it off for later and jogged the rest of the way to twilights house.


"Doesnt that mare ever sleep?" I muttered to myself as I saw the light on through the window. This was gonna be a bit harder then I thought but I got a mission and I gotta carry it out, I looked into the window and saw her talking to spike who was beyond bored and looked very tired. "Wonder what they're talking about?" I said then creaked the window open and noted to myself to seal her windows shut.

"Spike Im just saying maybe you and cinder can buy a little house here in ponyville its been a year and some change since you two have been dating" Twilight said and spike groaned. "Look I know its none of my business to get caught up in your love life but it wouldnt hurt to ask her would it"

"Then why dont you move in with steel?" Spike retored and she blushed a little. "You two are really close and he's done you I dont know how many times so why not go move in with him and just come here as a job or something?"

"Because spike this is my home and all of my stuff is in the basement, in my room, and all my research comes from the books I havent read yet... maybe one day I will move in but so far its not right now... also he has done me once now I wouldnt mind him bending me over and-"

"TWILIGHT STOP!" Spike yelped out and made her stop. "I dont need to know about your fantasies of being done jesus, look I'll think about it and ask her if she would be cool living here but she probably wont since she's a guard for celestia, luna, crystal and the twins... alright Im gonna head back to bed you should too your getting bags under your eyes" Spike said and I had to agree she did have heavy bags, with a final goodnight spike went up stairs and into his room which gave me a perfect opportunity to sneak in.

"Alright I think I should do a few more hours of research then head to bed still gotta find a place for these things as well... maybe steel can hold onto them... and I can give a little something extra for his help" The mare giggled and walked into the kitchen for what I think was a midnight snack. I snuck in through the window and closed it softly so she wouldnt hear then I made my way to the center of the room and placed the book down along with the note, once done I was ready to leave but I saw a giant display case with the mane six's elements. I walked over and look at the elements and noticed that the element of magic was glowing, I lifted the glass off the pedestal and took hold of it to examine it over more thoroughly.

"Strange I never seen it do this before... what does this mean?" I asked myself in a whisper running my hand over the gem then was shocked causing me to yelp a little, "That was suprising... still though what does this mean?". Thats when I heared someone's magic charging behind me, knowing it was twilight I used my magic to quickly disguise my voice and summon the mask greenie gave me and with my weighted gloves.

"Put the crown down and I wont blast you with my magic" Twilight threatened. Complying I slowly put the crown back in its place along with the large glass, now back on the pedestal she tugged my hood wanting to see my face but I spun around fast enough to catch her off guard and in one motion I pinched her neck causing her to scream a little at the pain but suddenly fainted in my arms. I soon heared hurried footsteps coming from upstairs and I knew spike had woken up.

"Hey what are doing?!" I heared spike say then I backflipped away from a kick with twilight still in my arms, we stared at eachother for a few minutes until I heared a knock at the door.

"Hey twilight I wanted to know if spike was still awake, I wanted to give back his comic book he lent me" Cinder said opening the door with a powerpony comic in hand. She was frozen stiff when her eyes laid on me, she looked like she had seen a ghost by the way she saw the mask and how twilight looked like she wasnt moving in my arms.

"Cinder quick try and grab twilight I'll deal with him when you do!" Spike said making the mare snap out of it and run toward me in a manner that meant danger. At the last second I side-stepped out of cinders path then kicked her in the back knocking her to the ground with a groan, with a silent apology I looked to spike and leaned back far enough to dodge his fist when he pulled it away to gl for another I took that chance to elbow him in the face knocking him out cold in one hit, I then dodged a fast fist aiming for my head and in one motion I punched her on the chest then chopped her kneck knocking her out cold. I looked at my work and silently apologized again then I put twilight on the couch and picked both spike and cinder up before taking them to their room.

"Their, now they should think it was nothing more then a dream... a very painful dream" I muttered to myself then turned to leave but was met with two small black eyes. It gave a small 'who' and titled its head, it was owlicious and she eyed me up thinking I was a threat but I summond a cracker and gave it to her to which she happily accepted and I was out of the house in ten seconds flat. "Didnt know owls liked crackers... the more you know, anyways I should head on back to the house Im sure luna is hugging a pillow and-"

"No get away from us!" I heared mare cry out then a scream, I quickly rushed over to the commotion and saw octavia with an injured vinyl cradled in her arms. Three stallions had surrounded them in a small alley and they all looked like they could over power them so with the situation processed I made myself known.

"Hey assholes!" I called out picking up a beer bottle, they turned and the middle one was met with a bottle to the face, it shattered and dug into his skin making him scream in pain and fall to the ground. "Step away from the mares or it will get messy"

"But you already got to the messy part!" Octavia screamed still shaking in fear, the stallions helped their friend up and picked up random blunt objects, like a pipe a peice of thick wood and a half broken hammer from the alley and started approaching me.

I pulled out my phone and pressed start then threw to her which she caught. "I know" I said and let the music take over.

All three rushed me and went to hit me in the head but grabbed middle one that was holding the pipe and dodged the other objects from hitting me, with a grunt I picked up the stallion and threw him across the alley hitting the stone wall next to octavia and vinyl.

I threw a hard punch at the one to my right then went off on the one to my left kicking and punching him then I grabbed him by his hair and slammed him against the wall hard, I heared a war cry from behind and I quickly spun around and stopped his hammer with my sheild arm then I planted my fist on his chest much to his confusion but I smirked under the mask.

"Ever heared of the one inch punch?" I asked him he shook his head then was sent flying to the hard and from where octavia was it looked like I just tapped him with my fist. The one behind me got back to his feet quiet enough for me to not hear and grabbed his peice of wood on the floor. The guy I punched to the wall looked up and looked at him then picked up his hammer.

The stallion behind me swung his weapon at me but I quickly duck as the peice of wood flew passed my head and I barely had time to grab the hammer that was heading stright to my face, I was suddenly kicked on my side knocking me on my chest and I felt the sharp pain of the hammer hit me then the wood on my head letting me feel a little drickle of blood run down my eye. I heared them start laughing as they beat on me and even start yelling at the girls thinking they were about to win.

"You see this girls if you just came with us then you wouldnt have to see this poor sorry excuse of a stallion that tried to be a hero and when were done with him Ima rip those cloths off and let my boys play with your unconscious friend you got in your arms" The guy holding the wood piece said and I looked up a bit to see octavia crying in fear now while staring at me, I had just about had enough of this shit I gave out a low growl and waited till they raised their objects then I shot to a kneeling position and raised my arms up to block them. Octavia gasped and the stallion yelped in fear as they saw the red and black fire cover around my arms and burn off the sleeves to my jacket luckily not showing my skin, I slowly rose to my feet bringing the objects up with me much to the stallions struggling to put me back on the ground dismay and with a slight flex of my left hand I shattered the pipe to peices and set the guy next to me a blaze burning him to death in seconds. With a small taste of this power shown to the stallion to my right he dropped his weapon and made a run for it but I grabbed a nearby chain and coated it with the red and black flames then sent it towards him cutting deep in his back severing his spinal cord making him paralyzed screaming in agony I dropped the chain and let it turn to ash as I walked to the stallion and kneeled down infront of him.

"C-C'mon man I-I dont wanna die yet me and my friends were just messin around you know just good fun!" The stallion pleaded and looked at me with a fake smile hidding his look of horror well. I rasied my left hand up showing him the assassin gauntlet then I released the blade and let the soul sucking black blade shine in the moon. "P-Please dont kill me I swear to god I will never do this again so please Im beggin ya dont kill me!" He begged but I cut his ramblings short as I dug the blade deep in his skull scattering his brains from the inside, I stared at him for a bit then pulled out the blade and cleaned it off with his shirt. I stood up and dusted the dirt off my pants then I heared a click to my right.

'I know that sound all to well' I thought and snapped my head towards it and saw that the stallion that was knocked out had woken up and shoved an old one shot marksman pistol on octavias temple who was about to piss herself.

"Dont move, dont you fuckin move or her brains are gonna splatter all over the wall ya hear me!" He yelled at me and I nodded, he slowly started coming towards me motioned me to move so I did and he walked past me quickly spinning around to face me. "Thats good... now me and this little missy are gonna go for a walk and if I see you anywhere near me and her I'll pull the trigger capiche?" He said and I nodded once more feeling a little powerless but I delt with my fair share of gun combat and I did serve in the hybrid revolution as one of their captains. I knew how to make the enemy trust me and mess with their minds, he thinks he will get far because he has a hostage but I created a plan already. Using all my knowledge I gained, I watched the stallion started walking off with octavia with the gun still at her head, I was about to chase after but I felt a tug on my pant leg causing me to look down.

"Please... save her... I'll do anything even sex just save her" Vinyla said weakly and cried through her broken shades with blood mixing with her tears. I just picked her up and began running after the stallion that took octavia.

"Dont worry vinyl I'll get her back and I dont want any reward just get to hospital and stay safe" I said and she nodded before passing out again. I saw greenie walking out the bronco pub drunk off his ass but I knew he would get her safe so as fast as possible I tossed her in his arms much to his suprise then took off like a bullet.

"Vinyl what in the?... oh shite in a hand basket we need ta get ya to a hospital lass hang on!" Greenie said sobering up faster then he could have then sprinted to the hospital. I chased down the stallion in ponyville park, I heared struggling and a smack ring through the air, I hid behind a statue just a few feet from the scene and peaked over to see octavia topless and being forced out of her skirt but she was fighting back while covering her chest. The guy growled at her then struck her with the back of his hand hard, she whimpered a bit and I saw a large gash and some blood run down her cheek coating it red. I was done playing with this guys mind now he's gotta die for a whole lotta reasons. I quietly walked behind him and grabbed his gun Yanking it out of his hands then shoving him to the ground with as much force as possible, this knocked the wind out of him not like he would need it for much longer. I rested one knee on his chest while I crushed his arm with my foot, I looked at the dumb bastard and let the dark clean cut holes in mask borough deep into his soul.

"L-Look you dont want to do this man, look, I did some crazy stuff you did some crazy stuff, I said somethings you killed my boys... can we talk about this?" He asked sweating bullets I shook my head and reeled my left arm back and extended the blade then stuck it straight into his throat before making him take the barrel of the gun in his mouth.

"Bang" I muttered before pulling the trigger and splattering his brains across the ground, the loud bang echoed through the air and I was sure it was gonna wake most of ponyville up. I got up and stuck the gun in my pocket before turning to octavia, she looked beyond terrified and Im sure this entire thing traumatized her. I slowly walked over to her making her start backing up as far as she can in the seat and shut her eyes as I was right infront of her, she didnt feel anything except for warmth making her open her eyes and see my jacket covering her bare body.

"Im sure the guards will be here soon... and vinyl is at the hospital, so with that I hope you have a safe journey home, farewell for now" I said spreading my wings ready to take off but octavia stopped me.

"Why did you save me and my marefriends we dont even know who you are and yet you saved us" Octavia said and I shrugged. "How did you know mine and vinyls names?"

"Your pretty famous so it wasnt hard... I should leave the local guards are gonna come at any minute" I said and as I did I saw about a giant group of guards mostly mares with swords and Spears. "Farewell octavia melody" I said and spread my wings before flying in the air then flew out of their vision.

"Miss are you alright?" A guards mare asked octavia and she nodded then glanced at the dead stallion behind her. "Do you know that stallion if so please tell us his name and what he looks like"

"Im sorry but I dont know his name and I was beyond terrified to get a good look at features but he did have a very large build, larger then any stallion I've seen and amazing looking blue wings, he wore a green and black mask and some black gloves with a retractable knife on his wrist" octavia explained and the mare wrote down the vague description, some paramedics arrived and patched her gashed cheek up then escorted her to the hospital where vinyl was.

I was Looking down at the ponies and they saw the mess I made, I clicked my tounge then pulled out the pistol the guy had. "How did a gun get into this world... only doc knows how to make objects from my world, questions for later I quess I should head home and get some sleep" I said to myself then put the gun away and flew back to my house where I saw luna still passed out on the bed and hugging a pillow. I stripped of my cloths save for the boxers then swiftly slid back in bed replacing the pillow in lunas arm then closed my eyes to sleep.

(The next day, zecoras hut)

I sat next to my father who was trying to find something to talk about other then fighting. Which was very hard for him. So we just looked at the small lake for awhile in total silence.

"Sooo... mind telling me why your here?" Logan asked me finally saying something. I did have one thing I wanted to know but it was probably a touchy subject.

"What cant a son visit his own father?" I joked but he had a straight face and I cleared my throat. "Look I know we know nothing about eachother because you left me all alone for my entire life... but I have to ask you something" I said and he sighed.

"You want to know why we left you?" Logan said taking the words right out of my mouth, with a stiff nod he ran his hand through his black then looked deeply into the water. "We loved you... your mother and I, she was the only woman to ever talk back to someone like me and actually fight me. Thats kinda how we met, I was brought to that planet a long time ago and I was left behind just like you, all my hate and rage all grew with each passing day and I swore vengeance on my whole race... but thatt put silence when I met your mother. Like an angel from the heavens she appeared just outside the cave I was living in, after an hour of fighting we laid their and talked for hours upon hours I completely forgot why I wanted to fight her and soon she visited me every day with food and cloths.... sorry, I started rambling point is I loved your mother with my mind, body, heart and soul" Logan and his eyes were filled with sadness and regret. "Your mother had to leave me and you because he took her away from us and I couldn't raise you properly so I fixed my ship and left you behind... something I came to regret over the years" he said with a sad look in his eye but it also shared anger.

"I see... but who took mom?" I asked him and he turned to me and said one word.

"God" I was left with silence, I had a stunned look on my face and my heart ached. I thought I would be ready to hear this but I was wrong... so wrong. "She was everything a saiyan man like me could ask for... and she gave me something that will remind me of her"

"Whats that?" I asked and gave me a quick pat on the back before getting up and began walking.

"You" Logan muttered and walked back inside of zecoras hut, I was sitting their feeling bad for him. He lost mom and the look in his eyes when he told me who took mom he looked like he hated him with a passion. Feeling a little satisfied now with the life long question gone, I got up and headed towards my house to meditate and relax for a bit. As soon as I took a step the world went completely grey and I couldnt move my body no matter how hard I struggled it was like if time had stopped on its own.

"So this is the man himself eh?" A man said his voice sounded rough and had a growle to it.

"It seems so brother... do you think he is worth to be called such a thing?" Another man said this time a little less rough and much more younger like mid-twenties. I felt a poke on my arms from something sharp then on my chest, I could do nothing but be still and try to figure out who these guys are. "He seems fitting, good amount of muscle, tremendous strength, speed almost unbeatable and blood of a-"

"Silence you fool, he may be frozen but that doesnt mean he cant hear us" The older brother said then humed to himself. "He doesnt seem to notice it yet... thats good, better he doesn't know now for he will bring chaos if it goes wild. Get the chains" The man said and I heared clinking of chains then something cold but also burning hot wrap around my arms and chest like some sort of armor, it burned my skin but thats when I suddenly felt the chains start sinking deeper and deeper into my skin until they were completely inside of me wrapped around my bones. "Their... now we must go but first we will give you something that will be the embodiment of you"

"See you next time oh chosen horesman" The younger brother said then something wrapped around my back and arm something and it felt like a weighed a ton. Their was a ghostly howl behind me then in seconds it was gone leaving me, the world turned back to the way it was and I felt the pain fo my burned skin. After splashing some water on the burn marks I turned to where the two brothers had gone but found nothing, I then looked to my left arm to see what they attached and I felt my eyes widen. The gauntlets on my arm was a dark grey color with lines running through and it shaped my arm perfectly, small strange tubes were connected on the knuckles and wrapped around my arm until they connection to my shoulder. The finger tips were shaper then any blade I had made or seen, in my eyes the only thing that can make this was a god but it didnt look or have such a craftsmanship. I felt around my back and felt something made of bone and metal, I swung the heavy object around and was met with a sword.

I stared at the sword in awe, it was beautiful it was a silver-colored longsword with a bluish tint from it and sharps edges. The blade is long and double-edged, with the forward-facing edge curving outward to form the guard. The handguard looks like its designed to resemble a vortex that reverses at the center of the handguard in all honesty this was an amazing sword but why did they give it to me, I then notice it had a small tube on the hilt so I was trying to figure out how to work it.

"How the hell do I use it?" I asked myself silently, I looked at the sword then my left arm and came up with a weird idea. "Fuck it might as well" I said and grabbed the sword in my left hand then began pumping some magic in the arm guard, glowing black aura ran through the tubes that were connected to my knuckles and shoulder, it flowed smoothly like if it was blood being taken out and seeped into the tube. As soon as the aura was full the sword turned pitch black and grew a bit longer, I couldnt believe my idea worked. "Right, lets see what this baby can do... this tree seems like it could be good" I said to myself and reeled back the sword with both hands then in a single motion I brought it forth going for a stab. Time slowed down but the magic in the sword shot out of it and flew through the air with tremendous force knocking me on my back and made a crater to where I once was, the speed was close to impossible and I couldn't tell where it was until I heared an explosion come from down the river where a rock was, I snapped my head to it and saw peices of rock falling from the sky and a small trench going through the river and straight towards the rock. I blinked a few times and slowly got back up to my feet staring wide eye at the crater I made with a small magic arrow, I suddenly felt the sword buzz in my hands from the shock of the magic blast. In all honesty I was terrified of the swords power, but also completed amazed as to how amazed.

"Holy shit" I said then felt the weapon get a little heavier, I have to get use to the force and weight of this thing if I do then I'd be unstoppable... well for the most part. I placed the sword behind my back then realized I had no sheath for it, as I was about to bring it forth again I heared a click then a warm sensation go over my body, once the feeling was gone I let go of the sword and was surprised thatit stayed in place. "Guess that solves that" I said and looked at my arm and decided to head to raritys to fix up my shirt since the shot kinda exploded my whole left arm sleeve, with the sword secured and in a position for me to run I started my way to raritys place to fix this up.


As I walked through ponyville I noticed some of the residents seemed a bit mad or depressed. I usually see smiles and ponies greeting one another but not today, "Geez we need pinkie to lighten the mood a bit" I said then accidentally bumped into a mare.

"Hey whatch where your going dick head" The mare spat out and walked away with a huff leaving me in a bit of shock. I never really heared a mare say that to me before usual the mares are sweet but not their sour.

"O...Kay then ignoring that, so new objective go find pinkie pie and have her throw a party" I said then made my way to sugarcube corner only to find it packed, after gently pushing some ponies aside I saw fluttershy with a big nervous smile and trying to make these guys smile... they didnt even crack a grin no matter how hard the poor mare tried, strings was their trying to have fluttershy leave with him and rest for awhile thinking she went ill or something. "Flutters what are doing lass?" I asked her and she turned to me and shrinked in fright.

"U-Uh... who are you?" Fluttershy asked timidly while catching me and strings by suprise. "And what are you some sort of monkey?" Flutterhsy asked once more and made string do a double take.

"Fluttershy, lass whats gotten into ya someone as sweet as yer self would never call yer mate a monkey so casually" Strings said stepping closer to the the shy mare.

"But I never seen him in my life strings" Fluttershy said and everything went silent even the ponies watching were shocked to hear this. I stood as still as stone wondering how she could forget me after all the adventures we shared with our friends.

"Dude something is wrong with her, she doesnt even remember what you did for me and her... she thinks Im still her best friend instead of her coltfriend" Strings said to me and we watched flutterhsy fail to entertain the crowd.

"I dont know whats going on but Im gonna find out, stay here with her in case a pony gets annoyed and tries to attack her while I go find twilight hopefully she will know whats going on and still remembers me" I said back to him, he gave a nod and I pushed my way out of the sweets shop then started running to twilights library. On my way their the weather started getting out of control and I passed through all the seasons multiple times from summer to winter in the span of five minutes, I saw a stallion with half his body covered a sun burn and the other drenched in water.

"Oh no, this isnt right maybe if I do this" I heared raritys voice say, I looked in the direction and saw the fashonista moving the clouds to make a checker outline. I ran up to the mare and she almost screamed seeing me. "What in celestia's name are you and wheres your fur and tail!... though you do have a nice tast in clothing" rarity said tugging at my shirt.

"Rarity do you remember who I am?" I asked her she looked at me like if I bat shit crazy.

"No I never you met you before Im afraid, Im sorry I have to get back to tending the weather excuse me mr. Monkey" Rarity said and walked away with her horn charging up and changing the clouds, I should have exlected that but no time to dwell I gotta find twilight.


I finally made it to twilight house and I almost broke the door down entering the house making spike jump in fright with cinder. "Spike wheres twilight theirs something goin on with the girls and so far they dont even remember me" I said

"She's upstairs and we ready found out, look at the elements of harmony and you'll see" Spike said with a frown, I turned my head to the glass case and saw all the elements except for twilights had changed. All the colors of their cutie marks had change color which suprised me so I went up to them and examined them more only to find what actually happened.

"Their cutie marks have changed" I said gaining both slike and cinders attention. "Think for a second, the elements of harmony represent who the girls are from their very being so if the colors have changed and turned into a different color say aj and pinkie, then that changes what they do and it changes-"

"Their destiny" I snapped my head to see twilight at the top of the stairs with a sad look. "Its all my fault, I read out of this stupid book and accidentally chanted a spell now they arent who their supposed be... their destiny's have changed and its all my fault" Twilight cried and ran into her room, I hit the wall a little to let out some anger then gritted my teeth.

"Cant she use the memory spell she did when I was fighting discord?" I asked spike and shook his head. "Zecoras cutie poxs cure?" I asked hopefully but ended up with another head shake. "Damn it... how do we fix this?" I asked no one in particular

"Maybe they'll grow to like their new lives I mean the guys will have to ask them out once more, and get to know you again and see your past like before but Im sure they would understand right?" Spike said and I shot a raged glare at him. He stopped talking real fast after that.

"Spike shut up before he knocks you out!" Cinder whispered yelled to him.

I decided to go cheer up twilight even if it would help a little, I walked upstairs and stood infront of her door. I gave a quick knock then opened it, she sat on her bed with tears in her eyes and looking out the window and into the rainy sky, "Twilight its gonna ok we are gonna switch them back" I said shutting the door and climbing up on her bed.

"What if we cant what if they stay like this forever... its my fault for chanting that spell Im such an idiot" Twilight said and I wrapped her in my arms.

"Twilight please your not an idiot and you couldn't have known... Ive gotta find a way" I said then heared hum to herself.

"I wish I could find a way" twilight said then softly sung to herself, saying she's gotta find a way even though its my fault so I joined her.

(You can play either one)

After the small song I held twilight close and started thinking of way on how to change them all back. "Twilight do you still have that book?" I asked her and she nodded before making the book appear, I grabbed it and read through it and notice this guy had alot of time on his hands. Some of them were silly spells that I never heared of and like silly sounds spell or fart noises, then their were serious spells that was invincibility and magic armor for knights or warriors. But then it just stops like if he had given up on the spell completely, but reading back its like this guy never had someone to hang out with or go to a bar and get drunk.

"Thats strange" I said and twilights ears perked a bit.

"What?"

"Well its nothing really but... it has this weird writing saying, a mark of ones destiny singled out alone fufilled... strange" I said then I saw twilights ears twitch then her eyes widen.

"Hey guys you ok up here?" I heared spike ask opening the door and as soon as he did twilight jumped out of the bed and had a big smile on her face.

"I know how to change them back!" Twilight screamed excitedly.

"How?" Me and spike asked, she ran dkwnstairs with us in tow then walked to the elements.

"I may not be able to remind them of who they are but I can show them what they mean to each other. They'll find the part of themselves that's been lost so they can help the friend they care about so much," Twilight said as she walked downstairs and packed the elements into a case and handed it to Spike.

"Thats was the sappiest thing I ever heared... lets try it but why do we need the elements?" I asked twilight.

"You'll see first up is fluttershy" Twilight said then was almost hit with the door as it smashed against the wall and strings was carrying a scared fluttershy in his arms and had the stallions behind him all confused.

"Lads... its a bloody mosh pit out their if you so much as look at another pony be ready to fight" Strings said slamming the door closed as mint was the last ine to come in.

"Does anyone know whats going on?" Jack asked. "I went to say hi to rainbow but I find out she said at fluttershy's cottage then the weather goes crazy and I find rarity talking to mint like if she never seen him before, oh and applejack she was making dresses and they are not pretty, and finally pinkie pie isn't at sugarcube corner she was at the apple farm doing 'work' so someome tell me right now before I lose my fuckin mind!" Jack shouted clearly angry and confused but after that little outburst I now know what the girls are doing and jack blew off some steam which calmed him down.

"You good?" Coal asked the man who nodded.

"Yeah... sorry I lost my cool their but Im still a little upset thay rainbow doesnt remember us dating" Jack said and the guy all said the same thing.

"Well your not alone in the department of the forgotten, they dont even know who I am anymore but all of us are going to help change them back first up is fluttershy" I said and we turned to the mare, she gave a confused look then was picked up by strings again.

"Well the'ell we waitin for lets go!" Strings said and we all took off to fluttershy's cottage.


We reached the small cottage and we knocked on the door. "Ay rainbow open up!" Jack called out then we heared her scream, I pushed jack out the way and kicked the door down without a second thought. She was in a cauldron tied up and all the animals were circling it with forks or knifes rainbow looked scared beyond belief until she saw us. "Hold on dash we got you!" Jack said then took a step but I stopped him.

"Twilight cant you use your magic to stop them?!" Fluttershy asked scared for her rainbow headed friend, twilight shook her head.

"No I cant, you have to do it your the only one that is able to save her" Twilight said and fluttershy looked scared to even be here. "C'mon fluttershy you can do this" twilight encouraged the mare, with a small determined look she slowly made her way to the chanting animals.

"U-Uh... hello little... animals I-I know you all have been giving rainbow dash a hard time but maybe its because she did something?" Fluttershy asked again and was nudged by angel who pointed to his stomach. "Oh... your hungry little guy, well uh... oh!, here you can much on this delicious bowl of lettuce" She said and gave angel the bowl, he happily ate them with a few other bunnies then hopped on flutters shoulder and nuzzled her. "Oh my your so sweet... maybe... all of you are just hungry... here lets do this"

After a few minutes fluttershy handed all her critters some food and when they were finished they all went to her and nuzzle her body. The bear however picked her up and kissed her cheek then hugged her, she giggled while strings eyed the bear. "Awe you werent mad at rainbow, you were just a little bit grumpy from not getting any food... wait I think I can hear something" Fluttershy said and her body was outlined with pink, she turned everywhere and her eyes widen. "I can understand them but how?"

"Twilight the element... its glowing" I said taking the necklace out and showed it to her, I walked over to the mare and wrapped it around her neck her eyes became blank and laid in the bears arms limp, her element flashed brightly for a split second before it turned back to pink and the cutie mark on her shoulder changed back to butterflies. The animals thought I killed her until she sprung up and blinked in confusion. "Fluttershy?"

"Huh... oh steel what brings you here, and why am I wearing my element?" Flutterhsy asked and got on her feet, I was quickly shoved out of the way by strings who just grabbed flutters and kissed her. The mare 'eeped' at this sudden motion, strings parted from her and laughed. "Whats gottin into you strings?"

"Im so glad your back to normal!" Twilight said shoving strings out the way and hugging her friend. "Now we need your help"

They started singing and it kinda brought a smile to my face, until they almost forgot rainbow dash.

"Uh hello friend still trapped over here" rainbow said and after untying her we all had her follow us while the girls sang. The weather was a mess and rarity was almost about to cry, when fluttershy said to give it a chance I grabbed dashes hand and flew up to the messed up clouds.

"Watch" I said then turned super saiyan blowing some of the clouds away then I flew to a random cloud with her. "Give it a poke" I said and she moved to the cloud then gave it a small poke making it poof into nothing, she gained a suprised look then she began clearing the skies.

Noticing the skies where clearing rarity looked up to see me and rainbow flying back down to her. Rarity was still crying a bit but had some relief now that its over, rainbow glowed a bright red and I quickly used my magic to levitate the necklace on her then held her up as her eyes went blank then her body went limp.

Not even ten seconds later she shot out of my arms and looked around in confusion. "Ow... What just happened?" Rainbow asked and her element flashed back to blue and her cutie mark was back to its lighting bolt.

"No time to explain but we need your help, applejacks trying to make dresses" Twilight said and with her usual smirk she grabbed rarity.

"Say no more" Rainbow said then we rushed over to raritys place and quickly went inside to see sweetie belle looking on in confusion wearing pajamas.

"Why is applejack making dresses?" Sweetie asked.

"Something happened were here to fix it, go get dressed and find the others we'll have this fixed in no time" I said and she nodded before running upstairs. The girls started singing to rarity to have her go help applejack who was looking stressed out. Rarity went over to the farm mare and used her magic to clean the space then she got to work, feeling relieved to take a break she slumped in a chair and greenie came over with his flask then offered her some.

"Thank ya kindly... say have we met before cause ah swear ah think ah met ya" Applejack said and greenie chuckled.

"Ya better cause I love my little farm mare" Greenie said and applejack blushed a little and used her hat to hid it. No matter what happens to them they are bound to fall in love, guess its destiny.

After a couple of minutes passed rarity finished her dress that looked beautiful and would go well with basically anything. She glowed a soft blue before twilight wrapped the element around raritys neck, she fell on the desk then sprung back up in seconds.

"*gasp* Oh my what a terrible dream I had, or... maybe Im still having it" Rarity said staring at one of applejacks works.

"Rarity! Pinkie pies about to lose the apple farm we need applejacks help" Twilight said.

"Lose the apple farm well we cant have that now can we?" Rarity said then we began heading to sweet apple acres.

"Hold on I think I might hold back, I gotta make sure the folks around her smile at least a little or just enough until you get pinkie over here" I said and twilight nodded before the group rushed off to the farm. I ran to the center of town where I found most ponies fighting or arguing with eachother, I saw vinyl and octavia looking around in confusion and vinyl looked almost as good as new save for the cast on her arm and bandages on her head.

"Steel whats going on?" Octavia asked me and I can see the bandages covering her gash.

"Never mind this what happened to you two?" I asked them already knowing the answer.

"Well we were about to be raped by these three stallions until a someone wearing a mask with blue wings and a retractable knife on his wrist saved us... now about the problem at hand" Octavia said and I looked around.

"I got an idea, vinyl think you can summon some of your stuff here?" I asked her and she tossed me a blue crystal.

"Travel crystal its how I set up my shows, just tap it on the floor and it will appear" Vinyl explained and I did just that, I almost jumped out ot my skin when the dj set appeared behind me and a mic connected to an amp. Vinyl got behind the dj booth and checked it. "Alright whats your plan?"

"Im gonna do a little something... Im gonna need your help vinyl" I said tosding her another mic. "I just need you to sing these lines when I point to you alright?" I said giving her the lyrics to her part and she gave a small nodded, both vinyl and octavia looked worried but I assured them it would be ok. I walked back to the little set and plugged in my phone and played a beat then turned it up just enough for the ponies to hear, once it got their attention I looked over to vinyl and crack a smile. "I ever tell you I could sing?" I said then pressed onto another beat and jumped a little then began singing.

The ponies that were arguing and fighting stoped and turned to us and came over to listin. I jumped around trying to get a response and a couple of ponies started to actually smile a little, and little by little they all started getting into it. When vinyl sang their jaws dropped hearing someone like her sing something like this but I gotta say her singing voice was amazing if the dj gig doesn't work she can make some songs.

I was having fun doing this and it seemed vinyl was as well and this rubbed off on the crowd and they gave small smiles while others had those smiles Im use to seeing all the time.

"My grandma smiling down at me like woo, that boy got bars" I sang out and they all loved that part. As we were nearing the end of song vinyl just finished uo her verse and I decided to add a little extra, I walked back to the set and stoped the recording then hit repeat getting curious looks from them.

"Whatch" I simply said then removed my sweat soaked shirt along with my sword and tossed it aside. When my verse came on I Took off, they all stared at amazement to how well I danced with the music almost like I done it hundreds of times, the mares all looked at me with hungrys eyes and the stallions looked jealous, I decided why not do something cool for a finale for the ladies so with that in mind I did a backflip and spun in the air and focused on my wings to let loose some small flames that trickled on the ground suprising them. I then turned super saiyan to add the golden aura then I landed back on my feet and I spread my wings full my back facing them and I let them see the fire dance around lightly. "Woo... man I just killed it!" I said giving vinyl a high five, half the ponies that were in the crowd had their smiles back but some of them didnt find it very entertaining so they walked off, I picked up my shirt and sword and watched them leave. "That should have been enough time, the girls should be here any second, thanks for helping me vinyl and feel well soon" I said as the party mare put the dj set up and placed the crystal in her pocket. "Hey maybe you and octavia could join us at the bronco pub mater with me and the others should be fun" I said.

"Well... I suppose that wouldnt hurt, you got yourself a deal man I'll see you later gotta rest up later" Vinyl said and walked off with octavia, I noticed the crowd from before had broken up but I spotted them out because they were the only things smiling

"Alright girls, pinkie is our last mare so make it count" I said then heared footsteps coming from down the road and I said all the girls except for pinkie pie with their elements on and back to normal. "Girls finally I got just a little to smile but I think their are still some ponies left who could really use a laugh... how 'bout it pinkie?" I said and she had a small smile, I summond some funny glasses and placed it on her. "Then get up their and spread some cheer from here to canterlot!" I said picking her up and setting her down on a statue where all the ponies could see her, their mood brighten up real fast and suddenly I was met with the good ol' poofy haired mare I remember. She glowed a bright blue and twilight put the element around the mare and she only went limp for a second before jumping up with her big smile.

"C'mon everypony I wanna see you smile!"

"PINKIE!" The towns folk cheered and had their smiles back, every started marching down the street singing that song, I was their walking next to twilight who was finally happy that our friends were back to normal. When everyone stopped singing we huddled for a group hug, it was finally over until twilight gasped then broke from the hug.

"Wait a second thats it, I understand now I know how to finish the spell" Twilight said beaaming a bright smile.

"Well lets get a move on!" Applejack said and we all ran to the library, twilight opened the door and marched over to starswirls journal then levitated a quill to her hand and opened up to the unfinished page. We huddled around her and let her finish the spell.

"From all of us together, together we are friends with the marks of our destinys made one their is magic without end." Twilight said then closed the book.

"That was the most cheesiest thing Ive ever heared but... it felt right in a way" I said wrapping and around her.

"Why are you shirtless?" Twilight asked.

"Not important but since everyones back to normal how bout we head to the pub drinks on-" My voice hitched and my body shook, I feel to my knees and felt a pain in my left eye and arm. It was so agonizing that I couldn't help but scream at the pain, twilight kneeled down and tried to figure out what was wrong.

The elements started glowing along with the crown, the girls back up a little bit and tried to take them off but it wouldnt budge. With a final look around I forced myself to push the pain away and sheild twilight as much as possible, five bright lights shot out of the girl's elements and engulfed us in a giant ball until it exploded in a bright flash. Everyone groaned a little and made sure everyone was ok.

"*Gasp* Where are steel and twilight?!" Rarity asked and they looked to the spot where we were and saw a scorch mark of mine and twilight cutie marks fused together her star had my folded wings around it and my fox head held it in its mouth.

"What happened?!"


(The queens prison garden)

I felt the sharp pain in my eye wake me up and I noticed I was back at the queens prison but their were pitch black flowers everywhere almost like a garden. I felt a weight on my bare back and I looked to see the strange sword on my back, I then heared talking from a little ways ahead of me and It sounded like celestia and twilight. I slowly got to my feet and walked towards the voicess and then I heared a soft voice start singing.

I soon came to a stop just a few feet from celestia and twilight, celestia's showed her the past of all her adventures with the guys, the rest of the mane six, gilda, trixe, cinder and spike and one memory where it showed me the day before we went to the crystal empire, I saw a dream version of myself holding twilight and protecting her from all those nightmares she had before we went to the crystal empire. I noticed that most of her memories were of me saving the them and fighting along side them, it almost brought a tear to my eye seeing all tthose times once more I even saw the one where she went crazy and I had to help her calm down I almost busted out laughing. But their was one memory that stuck out the most but celestia moved on with twilight to let me see, it held me and twilight, luna, frost, scootaloo and pip and everyone we know all together smiling almost like we were taking a picture.

Celestia had finished her song and I saw twilight being lifted up with some sort of purple aura then in a flash she disappeared with tones of magic in her possesion now. "So I had fun walking down memory lane" I said making celestia jumped at this then turn to me.

"Steel?, how did you get here?" Celestia asked and I shrugged.

"Well first thing I know is that I was sheilding twilight then the next Im here... man its been so long since I've been in this land yet it only feels like yesterday I was fighting nightmare moon, umbra, discord and crystal... good times" I said.

"Yes its quite something... oh that reminds me, how did twilight get starswirl the bearededs journal I could have sworn I placed it in a secret compartment in the castle that not even luna knows" Celestia said and I figured out why the queens lost the book.

"Well celestia I think your mothers had something to do with it" I said then was grabbed and bought closer to celestia.

"You got the book from mother?" Celestia asked me almost shouting.

"Uh yeah I did, but I didnt know how she got the letter" I said and made celestia let go of me.

"Well actually I was going to give twilight the book when she was ready and I made a whole note and everything then this morning I saw a letter with my mothers symbol on it so I opened it and it said that twilight is ready and nothing else" Celestia said and I chuckled a little.

"I wonder what happened to her... might as well head back so you can go make sure she isn't freaking out" I said and celestia agreed and she went back to the real world leaving me with my visitor. "Come on out she's gone faust, stardust" I said and both the queens came out, faust had a warm smile from seeing her daughter again. "It must've been hard not saying anything huh?"

"You have no idea" Stardust said and got right infront of my face.

"What are you doing?" I asked stardust who only humed.

"Well theirs something wrong with your eye... its different to say the least" Faust said and summond a mirror then handed it to me. I looked and saw my once black eye was a crystal blue with a green pupil that was in a slit and old celtic markings written across half my faceand circling inside my iris six arrows pointed to the eye and they match the girls elements color, I just stared at my eye it was freaky looking but also fuckin cool. "It might be something done to you when you sheilded twilight like if it brought out some sort of secret inside you "

"I dont know what but it looks so cool and I feel a little badass now" I said giving her back the mirror. "But I also felt a pain in my left arm" I said and looked only to see a skull with white flames as eyes and sharp teeth that looked like it could go through anything, on his face was a completely written on with old text that I couldn't make out. "This is so weird... but also cool at the same time, I guess I should head back now huh?" I said and the sisters nodded but had frowns. "You wish you can get out of this place right?"

"More then anything, I want to hold my little girl again and get to see some grandfoals" They both said and I chuckled a little.

"Alright alright Im not sure about the grandfoals but I will do everything in my being to set you free... I'll even do this" I said summoning a knife then cut my hand.

"Steel what are you doing?" Faust asked then sqeaked a little as cut her hand lightly along with stardust.

"Its called a blood oath a sacred promise that humans do to kepp their promise it even follows you after death and it won't go away until you fufilled the promise" I said grabbing fausts hand. "I promise to bring you back to break you free from the prison" I said then repeated the same thing with stardust. "Their now it is complete... I should head on back now so I'll see yall later alright" I said then had a door appear behind, I swung it open and went to step through but the queens stopped me for a second.

"Steel hold on for a sec, were did you get that sword?" Stardust asked and I pulled it out for them to see.

"Oh uh well, two brothers gave it to me but I couldnt see what they looked like" I said and the sisters humed.

"What are you gonna name it?" Faust asked and I stared at her confused. "Have you never named a weapon before steel?"

"No, no not really I mean the only sword I use is lily" I said and faust gave a little o at this.

"Well I guess this should be your first time then, what do you want to name it?" Stardust asked and I looked at the blade for a minute then I remembered it could take my magic and shoot it out like an arrow being shot from a bow so I guess I'll it this.

"Rebellions Conquest, it seems fitting for something like this but I'll call it Rebellion for short" I said and placed rebellion back on my back, and after a final goodbye I walked through the door and left the prison.


(Outside golden oaks library)

The light finally went away and I opened my eyes, I looked around and noticed I was on a cloud. "Heh alright lets go see twilight" I said to myself, I looked over the edge and I just above the library. I straightened back up then let one foot dangle off the cloud then I jumped up, the night air bit at my skin but it didnt bother me and with a slight spin in the air I landed super hero style in front of the girls and celestia.

"That... was... AWESOME!, you gotta show me how to do that one day" Rainbow said and gilda wanted to learn as well.

"Now now my little ponys, give him some space he did just get back and the first pony that should see him is our new princess" Celestia said confusing me but she stepped to the side and my eyes widen. Twilight stood their with a perfect hourglass body and a slightly bigger bust and hips, she was about my height now and she had beautiful purple wings on her back. She blushed a little from the amount of time I was staring at her, I walked up to her and just kissed her not even caring our friends were their.

"Beautiful" I said parting from her and she a dumb grin and dreamy eyes, rarity awed at this along with fluttershy while the others rolled their eyes.

"Hey steel whats on your back?" Pinkie asked pointing to Rebellion.

"A gift from two friends" I said. "So what now?" I asked celestia's who thought for a second then smiled.

"I know what exactly to do!"


(One week later, canterlot castle)

"Damn it!" I groaned out as I adjusted the white bow tie, I was wearing a pitch black dress shirt with black dress pants and a white bow tie. "God I hate suites... but if its for her then I'll suck it up" I said to my reflection in the mirror and grabbed a comb then moved my hair back and put it in a ponytail. With a final look at myself I walked out my bathroom then walked to my door.

"You look good"

I turned my head to see my father in a suite and he didnt look to happy to wear it. "Just like your old man" logan said patting my shoulder. "Except not as handsome" he said as we left the room and went down the halls.

"Yeah your right" I said and he smiled, we reached the doors to the throne room and I placed both hands on them. "Im better looking" I said then snickered a bit as he glared at me, I creaked the door open and was met with tons of ponies in suites and dresses but the main ones I was looking were my friends and marefriends luna had on a beautiful dark lavender dress 5hay reached to her feet and had gold links to it and on the edges making it shine she also had a golden necklace with a purple moon in bedded in it and I silently cheered knowing she found the necklace, frost had a pure white dress that had a slit running up to her thigh and showing off her flawless pale skin and her hair was in nice little braid that hung infront of her shoulder showing off her smooth white hair. I motioned for logan to go in while I wait for twilight, today is her coronation so I'll walk with her.

I felt a tug on my shirt causing me to turn and I smiled seeing twilight in a dress that was pink and gold with her cutie mark etched onto the left breast. "I thought you'd be up their with the rest of them" Twilight said and I just petted her head.

"I think it will be more special this way" I said causing her to blush, I held out my arm for her. "Shall we?" I asked and she answered by clinging to my arm.

"By the way you look very handsome in a suite but wheres your coat?" Twilight asked.

"Dont push it, you got lucky today" I said and we walked infront of the open doors. "You ready princess?" I asked and she nodded, with that I looked behind us to see the cmc in little pink dresses and a black suite for pipsqeak. "Get ready guys" I said then we waited.

"*Ahem*... We are gathered here today in celebration of a momentous occasion, my most faithful student twilight sparkle has done many extraordinary things since she's lived in ponyville. She even helped me reunite with my sister princess luna" Celestia said then took a deep breath. "But today twilight sparkle has done something extraordinary she created new magic proving with out a doubt that she is ready to crowned equestria's newest princess, fillys and gentlecolts may i introduce for the very first time..." Celestia paused for effect, I put my hand on the door and got ready. "Princess Twilight Sparkle!" She announced and i pushed the doors open, me and twilight began walking down to the aisle the cmc and pip walked ahead of us tossed the rose petals on the floor while two pegasi mares dawned in celestia's required armor held flages that were a cream color with twilights cutie mark on it. It wasnt a long distance but it felt like it was taking an eternity to get to the others I looked to twilight and saw her unsure expression but I nudged her and smiled warmly when she turned getting rid of her anxiety. We finally reached our friends and I unhooked twilight from me then bowed my head before walking over to greenie and the guys. My father watched from above sitting on wooden beams with zecora who rolled her eyes at the man and watched.

A small choir sang as spike went up to twilight with a purple pillow in hand holding her crown with the element of magic in it. Celestia picked up the crown with her magic and Presented it to twilight, she turned herself around and waited until she felt the crown be lowered ontop of her head. She looked so happy like if this was the happiest day of her life, which it kinda was, she extended her wings out and smiled brightly I walked up next to her and spread out my wings she hugged me and nuzzled my cheek lovingly getting an awe from her mom but a got a what I call is a dad glare at me from her father.

Me and our friends walked to the balcony where we saw thousands of ponies cheering and whistling. Twilight waved shyly at the crowd and chuckled nervously.

"Say something princess" I said softly nudging her forward.

"Oh uh... *Ahem* a little while ago my teacher and mentor princess celestia sent me to live in a place called ponyville, she sent me to study friendship something I didnt really care much about " twilight said and looked back to our friends who smiling widely. "But now on a day like today" She said then waved over for our friends to come stad beside us and they did with some tears in their eyes. "I can honestly say I wouldnt be standing here if it wasnt for the friendships that I made with all of you and I would have been able to meet my coltfriend, each one of you taught me everything about friendship and for that I will always be greatful" Twilight said and turned back to the crowd. "Today I consider myself the luckiest pony in Equestria thank you friends, thank you steel, thank your everyone!" She said finishing her speech and all the ponies cheered for her. We headed back inside and all smiling with happiness for twilight thats when I saw gleaming and cadance walke over.

"Oh twily Im so proud of you" Gleaming said then began crying and hugged her.

"Gleaming are you... crying?" Twilight amused but gleaming cleared her throat.

"Of course not its... its liquid pri-oh to hell with it yes Im crying" Gleaming said and hugged her more. After a few minutes of hugging they sepreated and gleaming calmed down a bit.

The choir started singing and charoit was waiting outside for us so I had twilight get on it and we all walked through canterlot gardens and the girls began singing.


(Night time, canterlot ballroom)

After everyone went back home we decided to have a little party to celebrate twilights. With a quick fire of pinkies party cannon that she got out of her it was a breez to set everything up, after that we started partying everyone was having a good time and drinking as much as possible well greenie was.

We both got into a drinking contest and I won by a mile since greenie got a head start. I was just having a good time with my friends its been awhile since we all did something like this with everyone here and I wont let anyone ruin this moment.

"Im sorry sir but the princess's told us no one is allowed in especially you" I heared a huard say from the entrance and I got up to see what the problem was but the guard was pushed to the ground and out of the way by a stallion about chest level with me, white fur, well attended mane and tail wearing a full white suite. He looked a little angry about something.

"Why would auntie not invite me, I am prince blueblood I have authority over someone as yourself you welp" The stallion said in a very harsh tone and walked past the stallion guard. I went over and helped him up to which he thanked me, I looked to thay dick and decided to give him a little peice of my mind.

"Hey you know your supposed to say your sorry if you push someone" I said walking up behind him then grabbed his shoulder but he spun around and pushed me away from him. "Whats your deal man" I asked with a glare he looked at me with disgust and looked like he wanted to puke.

"What in aunties name are you, you foul creature leave this place or die by my hand" Blueblood ordered me and turned away but I spun him back around and glared even harder. "Dont touch me you insolent welp do you know who I am?!"

"No I dont and frankly I couldnt give a damn" I said shoving him to a wall on his way their he landed againat a table of drinks casuing them to crash on the floor. Everyone stoped what they were doing and looked to the commotion, I saw him look at me and it was full of hate.

"How dare you ape I could have you beheaded I have the power to do so!" He yelled at me and as I was gonna give this asshole a peice of my mind but then I thought of how to scare him.

"Blueblood why have come here we didnt expect you to be back from saddle arabia for another month" Celestia said pushing me lightly to the side, I walked over to strings and whispered my plan to him and he smiled evily.

"I couldnt stand that wretched place anymore and when I heared a new princess was born and I had to see it for myself.... where is she and don't tell me its that dumb bitch who was student at one point I expect her to be out of this palace its no place for her" Blueblood said and my blood boiled hearing this and it took everything I had to not crack his skull open. "And who is that stupid ape auntie and why is he in the palace this isnt a zoo for animals or commoners its for royalty!"

"Ugh dont ya ever shut?" Greenie said groaning as he woke up from his nap, twilight helped him sober up a little and made sure to get rid of the hang over as well. "The'ell is this prick?" Greenie asked walking to applejack.

"I am prince blueblood nephew of your ruler princess celestia and I demand you get back to work butler or I'll have you fired" Blueblood said and waved his hand at him but greenie cocked an eyebrow at the snotty brat.

"Listin here ya gobshite I dont work here Im friends with the god damn princess herself, fuck sake Im friends with all four of the lass's!" Greenie said taking off his coat and rolled up his sleeves.

"Whoa hold on greenie dont do something ya might regret" Applejack said getting infront of the greenie, he glared at blueblood but the bastard snorted.

"Yes listin to your dirty farm mare and leave or else" Blueblood said and both ponies got ready to rip him limb from limb. "And why is the witch here?" He asked and zecora had barely enough time to hold my father back from litteraly killing him. "And-"

"Enough Bluey!" Bluebelle shouted at him.

"Bell at least theirs one face that Im glad to see, come were leaving this place" Blueblood said and grabbed Bluebelles hand much to her displeasure but coal ripped him away from her. "You dare touch me welp?!"

"Ya damn right I 'dare' you dick head, you can clearly see that she doesnt want to go with you" coal said and blueblood punched him across the face but coal played it off and sent one back hitting blueblood in the nose. "That all you got bitch?"

"You son of a whore" blueblood growled out turning back to coal with a bloody muzzle. Blueblood pulled out a knife and went to go stab coal but I got infront of coal and took the knife through my hand, the girls gasped and jack was holding greenie back from jumping in.

"I dont know who the hell you are bluey but I suggest you leave before you get hurt" I said grabbing the knife with my impaled hand and yanked it away then I took it out with a grunt. "Your playing a game thats to difficult for you boy" I said tossing the knife away.

"Am I cause this isnt childrens games welp your playing with the big boys now" Blueblood spat out.

"I like the sound of that actually... your playing with the big boys now" I sang out a little then grew a smile. "I guess I have to show you what real power is" I said and pointed to strings we ran over to his guitar and tuned it quickly before nodding to me. "Your playing with big boys now" I growled out then snapped my fingers turning the room pitch black save for two spotlights on strings and blueblood, and thats whe it started.

As I started everyone felt a cool chill run down their spines, I chanted in an almost whispering tone until I picked it up then without my own knowledge lux showed his face behind blueblood.

"RA!" He growled out before disappearing into the darkness, we circled around him and pushed him every so often much to lux's amusement. The group stared in amazement and in completely focused on my chanting, I was having to much fun with this and I could tell lux was as well.

When we finally started singing I appeared infront of him and shoved him a little mocking his so called power then lux came up behind him and gave his maniac like smile and laughed saying he was 'sorry' about it. "You'll know what power is when we are done"

"Son hahahahahaha!" We laughed before I picked him up by his collar and repeated the line he tried to intimate me with. As we went on blueblood looked ready to piss himself but I wasnt done yet. My singing got more intense and strings went a little heavier and banged his head to it, we slowly circled the stallion and now were basically giving it everything we had into singing this little song.

"By the might horus you will kneel before us, kneel before our splendorous power"

"You put up a front"

"You put up a fight"

"And just to show you we show no spite"

"We'll let you be our acolytes"

"But first boy its time to bow!" Me and lux said in sync then shoved him to his hands and knees in bowing postion then I used my magic to keep him like that. "YOUR PLAYING WITH THE BIG BOYS!" We repeated and rapidly teleported at high speeds making it look like their were more of us making him look frantically as much as he could move, strings was going overtime trying to keep until we soon began to end it, I picked him up by his mane and opened the door letting the light return in the room then I tossed him out the door letting him be able to move again.

"You played with the big boys now!" I growled out then slammed the door shut. I took a deep breath then exhaled deeply I never had to do that much before but it was fun to do it again after so long. I turned back to the others and noticed that lux was gone and my friends and marefriends were looking at me astonished. "Ta-Da!" I said giving crappy jazz hands but they all just clapped, I chuckled a little bit then bowed.

"Steel where did you learn how to sing like that?" Rarity asked me.

"Its an... embarrassing secret I might keep from y'all" I said with face of red from remembering that faze. "But it was fun showing that prick his place by the way who is he?" I asked celestia who just groaned.

"Thats my nephew blueblood and by his name you can clearly take notice of his personality without even meeting him, he is the complete opposite of his lovely sister" Celestia said and hugged her niece who squirmed out of her grip.

"Ay thanks for helping me their man it would have gotten pretty... messy back their so to say any ways thanks again" Coal said.

"No thanks needed my friend couldnt let that prick do something to harm that face its your only good feature" I said smirking and everyone laughed.

"Ah fuck you... oh thats right is your hand ok dude?" Coal asked and I looked back at my hand and shrugged.

"Eh a little magic should do the trick" I said and went to heal my wound but I was only able to heal it enough to leave a large cut. "Damn guess thats a little to much magic oh well guess I gotta use bandages" I said walking over to some water and dumped it on it then dried it and wrapped it around with some bandages I summond.

"Well this party is ruined since that big meanie walked in" Pinkie said and her mane went flat, I thought to myself for a bit then found a way to revive the part.

"C'mon now this the first party I ever been to lets make it last" I said grabbing vinyl then my fatger and brought them over to the stage that was here. I asked vinyl for her crystal and I made the dj set and mics appear. "Alright you two I need to borrow you for a sec"

"I am not singing" Logan said backing away.

"What you scared or something?" I asked and her turned red with embarrassment.

"O-Of course not a saiyan never gets embarrassed!" He barked out.

"This one did!" Zecora said.

"I will turn you to ash!"

"No you wont now hurry up I wanna hear what steel is planning" Zecora said and logan growled at the zebra mare then grabbed a mic. I chuckled a little then handed him a little book of lyrics same with vinyl then I went to lone piano that was just behind the curtians and I brought it out.

"Here we go" I said and begans playing.

I got up from the piano much to everyones suprise because it kept playing then I grabbed the mic in the middle and patted logans back.

"Lets see if we can get this band back together again" I said and I looked to logan who began his singing his part and went for a deep smooth tone for this. The rhythm of the song started making everyone tap their foot or move with it, I hopped in after logan and got a few of my friends bounce a little to the beat but when vinyl finished hers they all started dancing to it the song and they were all having a good time.

The song was fun to sing and made people wanna dance the guys were dancing with their marefriends and the others danced as well. I jumped down and grabbed lunas hand before twirling her around and then dipped her before throwing her up and caught her then brought her closer. I then swithched for twilight and danced with her for a bit then I went to frost, they were having as much fun as I was, logan and vinyl decided to join this and they jumped down as well.

Vinyl went to octavia and danced with her as she sang, logan however was reluctantly dancing with zecora who was a little bit drunk how we know is because her face was flushed a bit red and she hiccuped every so often. They loved us and when we were close to the end I grabbed luna again and pulled her close.

"Welcome to the gospel of dismay" I sang and pecked her a little, our friends cheered for us as we ended and I bowed once more. "Hope that got the mood back"

"It sure did lets PARTY!"


(Guest room)

I laid alone in the large bed because twilight wanted to sleep in her old living quarters and it held enough room for everyone so the rest of the mane six, the guys, trixie, gilda and cinder slept their while I wasnt allowed to enter lunas room for some reason. But I just over looked it and rested in this room, but I couldn't sleep I had a nagging feeling creep in my mind and it just bothered me alot.

"Fuck it" I muttered out before getting out of bed and walking over to the balcony. I let out a small sigh letting me see my own breath blow in the wind, I dont know why this feeling is here, I was getting annoyed because I really wanted to sleep until I heared my door open quietly. I thought it was luna or one of the kids but I didnt hear them call my name so I quickly summond my assassin gauntlets and quietly flew to the roof and used my egal vision to see who was here. The man glowed red and he was wearing black armor with clothing and a helmet on his, he had a large broad sword on his back and a small dagger in his hand, her walked over to my bed and stabbed the bed then tossed the blanket away.

He grunted in annoyance but jumped when he heared a thud behund him. "You know you shouldnt try to take someone like me on" I said before he had the chance to turn and attack I stabbed his spinal cord then I snapped his neck causing him to go limp in my arms. I laid him down and I began searching him for anything, I ripped open his shirt and found a red cross Necklace around his neck. "Templars... I thought coals father was the only one... guess they have been hidding for sometime and decided now was the time to strike, but why me... unless" I said and snapped my head to twilights tower. "Their going for twilight and the girls!" I said and summond my robes and mask before opening the balcony window then I flew straight to twilights tower and I saw six templars climbing through the window. I snapped my fingers to change the way my robes looked it was a slim pure white assassins robe with a red cloth belt around my waist and a metal chest piece under it.

I did this because the girls have seen what they look like before and I even changed my voice just to make sure. Then I flew to the edge of the window and quietly hopped inside. Not a sound was made, it was quiet enough to hear a moth fart but I felt the templars around.

I used my eagle vision and spotted all six of them moving quietly abiut the room two were heading to spike, cinder, trixie and gilda while the others went to go to the girls room. I snuck my way over to the two thatwere heading to spike and the others and waited for a perfect moment.

"They said we should kill the fake princess and get out simple" One of them whispered but the other snorted.

"They also said kill anyone near the fake princess so shut up and get to stabbin" The second stallion said and they both took out their knifes and went to kill spike first.

I went up behind them and yanked the knifes away causing them to look behind them and see me but before had a chance to attack me I punched the one to my right as hard as I could then I stabbed the one to my left in the mouth and head killing him. I turned back to the other stallion and Stomped on his neck as quietly as possible but it was still a bit loud. I looked to my sleeping friends and thankfully they didnt wake up, with two out of the way that leaves four left so with that I quickly made my way to a room one of them went into.

In the bed peacefully sleeping was applejack, greenie and macarena I saw a shuffle in the room then a shadow swiftly make it way to the three with a sword in hand. He held it uo high and was ready to bring it down but I jabbed his side and he grunted and dropled the sword and I quickly caught it just inchest away from greenies neck, I was so focused on greenie and the girls I almost got stabbed by the man but I blocked the knife with his sword then I slashed his hand slightly making him drop the knife on the floor and luckily didnt wake them up. I grabbed the guy by the neck and shoved the sword in his head killing him then I placed him on the floor and went on to the next room.

This one had jack and rainbow dash, rainbow was snoring up a storm and I dont think I could wake her up with the way Im gonna kill this guy. I saw him take out two knifes and he went over to dash's side, before he could even raise the knives I covered his mouth and slit his throat with my hidden blade then I took the knifes out of his hands and went onto the next. When I exited the room I was about to head over to twilight until I heared a creak from above me I stoped and looked up but was shoved to my back hard by the two templars that were on the roof.

"I heared so much about you yet you disapoint me for shame assassin" I heared the one from the roof say and hop down from the ceiling and infront of me. "Predators of the nights, stalkers without end, death incarnated... always in the shadows and wait for your prey, to us you are nothing but savages slaughtering our cause" The man said and unsheathed his sword on his back then pointed it at me. "But now you lay on your back helpless against us now... Pathetic I tell you, but I guess my masters will be pleased to hear we killed a savage like you"

"God dont you ever shut" I said and he growled at me, I need to be loud so I can get an opening ready. "C'mon why dont you get this asshole off me and we can settle this like true men" I taunted but he didnt accept it.

"Do you take me for a fool, you would probably kill the man holding you down once your up" The stallion said and I clicked my tounge.

"Fine then suite yourself but I have one thing to say... how do you wanna die?" I asked casuing them both to look at eachother in confusion before turned super saiyan blowing the one holding me down away and crashing through the window and began falling to his death. I quickly went back to my base form and I swiftly dodged a sword slash from the last templar, as he swung his sword I can tell he had a very well trained teacher but I have to end this before the girls wake up.

"Die!" The stallion shouted at me then punched me in the face catching me off guard then he slashed my right arm getting a yelp out of me. I placed my hand on the wound and saw it was pretty big and coating my sleeve red.

"How did you cut my arm?" I asked him and noticed the cut went to the sheild part of my arm but it quickly regenerated save for the rest of the mark.

"Well this little puppy is made from the bones of alicorns horns and wings, its a bitch to find but hey it works wonders can kill any being, even alicorns" He said and I narrowed my eyes at the sword. It was ashy grey blade with hints of jagged workmen ship on it, the blade was only recently forged so they must have just found some.

"So you were planning to use that on princess twilight sparkle huh?" I said and he snorted a little to himself then it turned into a chuckle. As he was about to say something a bolt of magic whizzed past us and hit the wall, I looked to see twilught and everyone else armed with whatever they had some with the alicorn bone swords and daggers. "Guess this is the end for you fruit cup" I said with a grin under my mask and cracked my knuckles.

"If Im going down Im taking that bitch with me!" The stallion shouted and rushed to twilight but I grabbed him by his tail and threw him across the room making him slam onto the stone wall, I released my hidden blades and began making my way to him.

"Wait you dont have to kill him!" Twilight said getting infront of me. "This guy is clearly not fit to battle anymore so just let us handle it" she said I was thinking for a second until I heared a battle cry, I saw the man running to twilight with his sword raisee and ready to bring it down but I pushed twilight out of the way then I ducked under his attack and maneuvered his blade out of his hand and into mine before I flip him over me landing him on his back. I spun the blade in my fingers to make the tip face the ground then with one fluent motion, I drove the blade into the guys head and stoped when it reached the hilt.

I panted heavily as I stared at the stallion then I felt all eyes on me, I looked up to see my friends all staring at me in disbelief as to what I just done. I heared the door burst open causing us to snap out heads to it and see all the princess's, gleaming and brigid all in pajamas but holding weapons with a few guards behind them.

"Twilight are you alright we heared the sounds of fighting" Gleaming said and noticed the dead bodies around the room then her focus went to me and she saw me holding the sword that was dug into the stallions. "Halt your under arrest for murder and attempting to assassinate the newest princess of equis!" Gleaming said and went to grab me but I kicked her in the chest and made a bee-line for the window dodging spears, arrows and magic bolts. As I made it to the window I looked back and saw them all looking at me but I chuckled a little and spread my wings fully. "Wait think about what your doing you killed six men in cold blood and broke into a royals chamber, do you really think you could get far mr. Murderer"

"Yeah pretty far, also its not mr. Muderer its... prophet, see you all soon" I said with a slight chuckle then I fell backwards out of the window and flew back to my room at break neck speed. Once their I quickly took of everything and made them vanish I changed my voice back to normal and I wrapped my arm in some bandages, I then placed on a shirt and shorts before walking out my room and heading to twilights tower.

Once I got their I saw the mane six, the guys, the royals, trixie, gilda, brigid, zecora, logan, spike and cinder all talking to eachother and some looking at the window I jumped out of. "What happened here?" I asked greenie who explained that a guy in pure white robes and a black and green mask with a red cloth belt was in here and killed the assassinators then jumped out the window. "Wow, I missed all the fun well I guess that guy saved you lot" I said and walked over to the templar I pinned to the floor with the sword still stuck in his head.

I gripped the hilt and tried to take it out but I think I stuck it to deep in his head, with both hands now on the blade I used all my strength to yank the sword out of the stallions head. "What is that thing?" Brigid asked me and we all looked at the blade, I looked at the blood soaked blade that had mine and the stallions bood on it.

"Don't know but its pretty strong, it looks like it was made from bones casue look at the dull part it has bones of wings hooked on it and the blade itself had these grooves like a unicorns horn... maybe they used actual bones to forge this, but of what?" I said almost in a mutter, I looked at celestia's horn then her wings then examined the sword. "Its made from alicorn bones" I said causing them all to gasp.

"A-Alicorn bones but how!" Twilight asked and I shrugged.

"But look at it, the sword looks like a horn because of the small grooves still in them, then the they used the wings of the alicorns to make it light and have better mobility with it... who could be this smart to think of something this deadly" I said and ran my hand against it, I heared a faint whisper as I did then a sharp ring blasted through my head.

"Sterl are you ok bro?" Brigid asked and I looked to her with a slight dizziness.

"Yeah... yeah Im fine guess I just need rest" I said and everyone agreed, we all left the room and closed off that part of the castle and princess's showed the girls to their new rooms but as I was going to head back to mine I was stopped by brigid and the guys.

"We need ta talk" Greenie said and we all went to my room and after throwing the ashes of the dead templar out the window I sat down on my bed and waited for them to start.

"We know it was you who killed those guys" Mint said and my eyes widen a little in shock.

"What are you talking about?" I asked trying to play it off but strings was next up.

"You only had one injury since we last saw you but now you have bandages on your hand" Strings started then lifted my left shirt sleeve to reveal messy bandages on my arm. "And on your arm, the guy that jumped out the had been cut on his left arm"

"And once they told me this, I saw you walk in with a look of pain but you hid it well" Brigid added and we all went silent, I gave a heavy sigh before snapping my fingers to summon the robes on me.

"Caught me red handed, you guys are very observant... lets just say some old enemies have come out of their hole" I said and brought the hood down.

"Why were you trying to hid this from us?" Edge asked and I shrugged.

"Didnt want yall to get caught up in this mess, listin please dont tell the girls about this alright dont want them to think I was a murderer" I said brigid humed to herself then got an idea.

"Alright I'll keep quiet... if you let me in on this" Brigid shocking me.

"Are you crazy what if you got killed, celestia's would be devastated and it'll be my fault" I said.

"I want in as well" I snapped my head to Jack who had a smirk on his face.

"Same I wanna be an assassin" Mint said.

"Dos" Coal said.

"I've been training for this for awhile now but I still need to learn more" Spike said.

"If it means keepin flutters safe count me in mate" Strings said with a smile.

"Hell I'd follow this bastard to war with nothin but me fists" Greenie said punching my arm.

"Ay I'll give it a shot" Edge said with a small smile, I looked at all them with complete shock me nor ryle were this willing to join the brotherhood. I shook my shock away and chuckled to myself.

"Its gonna be very dangerous" I said and they nodded. "You could die if your not careful"

"We understand steel... let us help you man" Jack said and I sighed again then I thought for a bit.

"Let me ask someone real fast" I said then passed out and went to the queens prison.

(Queens prison)

"Ay faust, stardust I need to ask yall something" I called out and was met with the two in just under a second.

"Whats it steel?" Stardust asked me.

"Well the guys and brigid found out Im an assassin and they also want to join so I came here to ask if you think I should let them join" I asked and the sisters thought for a moment then summond a little gems each with different colors, they handed me the crystals and I looked on with confusion.

"Hand them these crystals and tell them to hold them to their hearts, its a way for them pledge to the brother hood but if they dont accept then the crystal will wipe their memory completely" Faust said and I nodded, I quickly thanked them then went back to the real world.

(Real world)

I sat up with the crystals in hand and scaring the group, "Jesus man you scared half to death" brigud said but I tossed her a crystal that matched her color, after I handed them each of their crystals I stood back.

"Alright if you truely want to take part and join the brotherhood put that crystal above your heart and focus really hard on it, if you wish to back out the crystal will wipe your memory of this moment and you can live on with your life... the choice is yours" I said and waited, they all placed the crystal on their chest and closed their eyes.

The crystal glowed brightly and I had to cover my eyes a bit, once the light went away I uncovered my eyes and I saw the guys dressed in their robes I made them including spike.

His was a dark purple and green robe, with a green cloth belt and a bow slung behind his back. He wore his very own assassin gauntlets and had a saber on his hip. "Whoa this is so cool" Spike said all giddy.

Edge looked at himself and walked infront of a full length mirror, his robes were dark blue with hints of purple in it, his hokd was white and his boots were black as the night. He had twin silver revolvers on his hips and a long sword on his back, his gauntlets were pure white leather and had two blades instead of one that comes out. "Wow this is... wow"

"Holy shite" Greenie said and we looked to brigid, her robes were dark red and the hood was bright red with dark brown calf high boots, the robes themselves hugged and shaped around her body hood made her eyes glow red and orange like fire. On her hips were a short sword and a long sword the short sword had a thick black blade with some parts cut out to make the cut more jagged and painful while the long sword was double edged with a white blade and grip, it was both thick and thin making her more able to move around with it and swing faster. On her back was an old musket that had black wood and white metal on it, on her face was a mask that covered her mouth and nose and made it to let us only see her eyes. "Damn I look good in this"

"Guys" I said gaining their attention. "Welcome to the brother hood remember these words and burn them into your minds" I said then took a deep breath. "I must tell you the three rules of the creed in order for you to understand what Im about to say One. Stay your blade from the flesh of the innocent, Two. Hide in plain sight, be one with the crowd, and Three. Never compromise the brother hood... nothing is true, everything is permitted" I said and had them repeat it.

"What does that mean though?" Coal asked.

"To say that nothing is true, is to realize that the foundations of society are fragile, and that we must be the shepherds of our own civilization. To say that everything is permitted, is to understand that we are the architects of our actions, and that we must live with their consequences, whether glorious or tragic, that is what it means coal" I said and looked out the window. "No looking back now boys and girls, it road we walk will long and dark but I-we will find a way through together" I said and turned back to them and smiled. "Say it with me brothers and sister" I said and they nodded.

"Nothing is true, Everything is permitted"
