Chapter 1
3rd person
For the first time in years jinx was smiling. As he climbed up starhaven mountain the weather had changed from pouring rain, to a light drizzle. The cloud cover was clearing and he could see the stars and constellations of his home. Many would call the druid a crazy son of a bitch for even trying to climb the mountain in this weather, but he was in no more danger right now than when he was walking down the road. If he fell he would just turn into a bird or ask one of the many trees he had passed to catch him. You see, while many of the races in this world could use magic very few had the ability to use druidism, also referred to by many races as nature magic.
At last he finally reached the top of the mountain. As jinx stared down at the land before him he had but one thought, home. For 2039 years jinx had been traveling ever since discord had been defeated . He had decided that he had been gone for far to long . As he thought this he started to set up his camp and with a simple cantrip he started a fire on the ledge he had taken shelter in. As he laid down on his bedroll he recalled how the final battle had gone.
(Flashback)
It had just become morning when jinx's torn and broken body had been slammed into the ground. He was missing several of his teeth and was ceartain he had broken at least a quarter of the bones in his body. The battle that had caused him to be in this state had been going on for 3 days. Now this would be very bad if discord was in any better condition . As discord walked over to jinx he asked what was the point of that was? He was confused when jinx smiled and simply said, "i'm a distraction," as the light from the elements of harmony washed over his body, and the music of discords panicked screams echoed in his ears.
Jinx was shaken out of his memories by what sounded like panicked screaming. It was female and it was coming from further down the mountain, and as jinx jumped from his bedroll he shifted into a large raven and flew to where he heard the screaming. From his position he could see a small shape huddled into a crevice, and the manticore that was trying to eat it. Now normally he would just throw a fireball and be done with it but there was a chance he could hit the mare, so mid flight he shifted back into his normal form and conjured his spear. Grabbing his spear he positioned himself to hit the manticore in the back of the head spear first. As jinx impacted the manticores head killing it he thrust his spear forward and used his spear as a spring board to land in front of the pony and give a quick bow. What he wasn't expecting was to get bucked in the fox hood with the force of a small battering ram.
(Rainbow dash's pov)
To say rainbow dash was panicking would be a under statement. She had taken Scootaloo out to the mountain to try and teach the squirt how to fly, she had set down in a small meadow that they had flown across 3 times now, but when she had turned her head for just a second and when she had looked back Scootaloo was gone. She was about to take of when she heard her scream. When she had gotten to where she heard the scream she saw a bloody bipedal fox with an even more bloody spear standing over scoots. So rainbow dash did the first thing that came to mind, she delivered a flying kick directly to its midsection.
She was about to hit the fox again when Scootaloo had yelled at her to stop and began to explain that the fox had helped her, and had killed the manticore that was attacking her. While she was still weary of the being that could take down a manticore so easily she did move to make sure it was alright. The fox like being had orangish red fur and was shirtless so she could see the runes and symbols that covered his back and chest. After making sure he was still breathing she decided to look at his spear. The spear's tip was shaped like a leaf and was made out of a silver colored metal and had a blue vein like material across the service that conjoined at the tip, its shaft was made out of a dark almost black metal that had runes carved into it.
When she reached out to touch the spear with her hoof her mind felt as if it was having a couple hundred books worth of knowledge being stuffed into her head just as the pain was about to be to much Scootaloo tackled her away from the spear. She could briefly hear Scootaloo asking her if she was alright before her eyes closed.
(Jinx's pov) 1 person
The first thing I felt when I woke up was pain, Oh god the pain, and the second thing i felt was a ear splitting headache . The third thing i noticed was that the filly that i had saved was yelling again. Drowsily i opened my eyes to see the orange and purple haired pony trying to help a blue Pegasus with a rainbow mane. She looked like she was having a seizure and her eyes were glowing blue. It took me a moment to realize she had been affected by the curse i had laid on my spear a month prior. When i realized this my eyes widened and i shot to my paws. and as i rushed over to the rainbow haired Pegasus i started to chant the appropriate spells to save her life. After an hour of doing this the Pegasus finally stopped shaking and started to breath normally. When i had made sure she was stable i turned to the orange pony that had been silently watching me, and asked her name. "Scootaloo" she answered, "Whats yours?" she asked.
