I dashed passed all the demons to it's supposed, leader, It had no idea I was coming because I was just a blur to everyone. I stood behind the Nuckelevee and tapped it on it's back.

It turned around in a freight, while I simply stood there with a massive evil looking grin on my face, "Hi, nice day isn't it". I said with mock humor. It was about to swing before I kicked it sending it flying across into the market area, where most of the demons slaughtering ponies.

Everyone was at a stand still, most of the on goers such as the demons even stopped and stared at my direction, all eyes were on me, just how I like it.

"Come on, that kick couldn't have finished you, not from an attack like that," I said with a giggle.

The Nuckelevee got back up and was glaring at me intently, while I stood there with a mad grin on my face, I looked up at the creature and sent about ten percent of my killing intent, everyone was shitting bricks, the Nuckelevee backed up suddenly surprised by my action.

"So, who wants to die first?" I said with a bit of malice.

A stray demon got a bit too confident and tried to strike me from the back, while I spun at fast speeds and delivered another kick and cut it in half.

Everyone was definitely in shock now, some even scared, but guess what? Even the Nuckelevee tried the first attempt at me. The Nuckelevee galloped at full speeds with a spear in hand squealing loudly, it threw the spear while I simply dodged it with easy, and I put my hand's wide open shouting "Come on is that the best you got?"

Then the Nuckelevee threw a second spear that grew out of its body, this time I dodged it but had my back turned walking off. The Nuckelevee thought he had an opening in my defense, so it threw a third spear while I moved at very fast speeds to the side and grabbed the spear inches away from my neck. I spun around and launched the spear right back at the Nuckelevee and it went straight through its head and exploding bits of gray matter all over the floor and buildings surrounding.

"Well that wasn't fun, I thought you would last longer, oh well." I laughed.

The demons ran away after their leader being humiliated and destroyed like that, it was really amusing. I started walking back to the group before something landed a few steps away from me, I turned around slowly and saw but a girl with black hair, weird looking clothing, probably a maid's outfit, looking very gothic, and was supposedly a loli as well.

She had Purple eyes, that could pierce anyone's soul, I'll be honest she looked really cute and adorable, but as I looked around everything in time had stopped, sort of like my Quicksilver, but everything was red and eerie.

I was now staring at the girl, waiting for what she would do, but all she did was stare at me blankly, then form a sinister smile on her face and disappeared making everything go back to its original state.

"Huh, that was weird" I was confused but I let it go for later issues.

I headed back towards the group, and stood in front of them "So, how was that?" I asked.

They were still shocked, it was pretty funny, so I put my hand in front of Twilight and Nighty, and waved them about to snap them back to reality, which had worked.

"Wah, what happened, " Twilight said, and for some reason, the rest of the gang went back to normal as well.

"THAT WAS SO, AWESOME!!" Skittles shouted in my face, I wasn't fazed, but I was smiling.

"It was wasn't it?" I said with a huge smile on my face, showing my teeth.

"Yeah, the way you dodged the spears and threw that one spear back and exploded that thing, it was so cool," She said with an excited smile ready to explode of her face.

"Well I don't mean to brag but, im just, awesome", I said with a confident smirk.

"Anyway, how did you learn how to fight like that?" Twilight asked also Nighty nodded.

"Push ups, sit ups, and plenty of juice," I said with a slight chuckle.

Twilight groaned at my response, "Anyway, we haven't got to fully introduce ourselves.

The other five perked up at this and began their responses. Skittles was up first, "Hey, I'm Rainbow Dash, and I'm the fastest flier in all of Equestria," She said with a boastful smile.

"Heh, I like your ego, wanna know where I got mine? Skittles?" I laughed.

"UGH, STOP CALLING ME THAT" she shouted in frustrated, while I was chuckling to myself.

"My name is Rarity Belle a fashionista at my boutique, you should come darling, so I can tailor you some new clothes and have se-fun with making them, of course, h-haha".

My brows furrowed at that "fun part" while the orange one and came up, but kept a stern eye on me "Howdy, my name is Apple Jack, nice to meet ya" she grabbed my hands firmly and shook it hard and fast, but that didn't even hurt or faze me at all, instead I hurt her with how fast I was moving my hand.

"Quite the err hand you got there," she said with mild confusion.

Then the Pink one came up and said "Hiiiiii, I'm Pinkie Pie, and do you like parties? do you like ca-" Pinkie was cut short by Twilight's hoof being put in her face stopping her from ravaging my brain any further.

"Think I lost a few brain cells," I said with a facepalm.

But out of fucking nowhere the butter coloured mare that hadn't spoken at all since this fuckin story started, tackled me onto my arse with my legs intertwined with her back hoofs, I was in an awkward position but she was too bothered about me being hurt and was looking all over my body for injuries.

"Are you hurt anywhere, aww you poor creature, does it hurt anywhere?" She said while pulling a medkit out of her satchel she had strapped to her side, she had the medkit in her mouth, my mind had broken, for the very first time, and it was over cuteness.

I grabbed her by the hooves and hugged her not too tight but enough for her to breath, "Awwwww you are so fucking cute" I said sighing into her fur coat, she was blushing a beet red, and her wings well...they went poof and straightened.

And all the other ponies that were surrounding me that had wings went poof.

While I was still hugging the cute mare, I could see what was happening.

"What, the fuck.".
