Celestia watched as the two began their squabble before magically ripping Damocles away from Belladonna as Rio Held her back.

"What are you monster! Not a changling but why dont you have a heart like the rest of us!" Belladonna hissed at Damocles."

"Why dont you try to describe what you see to them, Illusionist bitch!" Damocles laughed as he chided the female Griffon, until of course he was smacked on the snout by Luna.

"Bad Damocles! No, Down my Centurion. These are our esteemed guests. Now explain, why the attack and the ... Colorful Accusations." Luna appeared to be trying to think of as much rational explanations as she was tempering her rage towards it.

"I would like to know the same for you Belladonna, That is no way to treat him!" Baron said as he calmed down Belladonna enough. Both them sighed in annoyance. But it was Damocles to speak first.

"The Griffon over there has a special ability that shes keeping hidden from you both with understandable intentions that will more than likely come in to play at a later time. Now I didn't expect her to jump at me like that so i gotta say I'm impressed." he turned to look at her and gave her a smug but teasing wink. "I like 'em feisty." This drew a blush from Luna, as Celestia's eyebrows rose in mild shock. Belladonna on the other simply growled.

"While he is right and I would request of you to not try to find it out as for personal reasons. That is no freaking Pony. Part of this ability of mine lets me see the hearts or souls of a person when i want to. His i see passively a soul literally clean cut in half and no heart with a bunch of chains and locks over where the heart goes. No Equestrian ever has that type of....." Realization dawned on her as she walked over to the Mosaic and face palmed. "He is literally from an another world, and is literally tied to the grim reaper of that world and now this one." She growled Frustrated. "Princesses I have a serious Request of you both."

"Belladonna this is a bad Idea I would advise against it." Rio's warning fell on deaf ears as she continued.

"I want to fight him formally after blue blood. Provided he is not too much of a coward." Her words were sweet with just the slightest hints of venom as she chided him Leaving the Diarchs to look at each other for a moment. Celestia began after closing her eyes and taking a breath then looking at Damocles.

"If you want to fight him I would request you wait till after we hear from the new leader of your homelands regarding our proposal. As it's more of a request than anything else." She paused as she watched the look of disappointment fall into place. "However, if things go as expected It would seem apparent that within the next few months Damocles and you will have your fights quite a bit as he trains abroad." she smiled as the look of realization dawned onto Belladonna and Damocles. A look of anger onto the former and a look of violent excitement on the latter.

"But that just leaves a few things now. Midnight, Dusk Blade. Is my midnight pupil suitably skilled enough to defeat our nephew and his champion?" Her voice was heavy as she inquired the appointed teachers. Dusk Blade and Midnight looked at each other before turning and heavy whispering going on with one of them occasionally looking back at Damocles. Until they both nod and stand straight to their princesses.

"Your highness as it stands, Damocles, while taking in consideration the burden he carries as to be the envoy and embodiment of death he is, we have decided upon the result that he is not best fit with his abilities to fight Prince Blue Blood."

"WHAT?!?!" The scream of shock and anger, much to everyone's surprise, wasn't from Damocles, or Luna, but instead came from Princess Cadence who had just walked in on the situation with Flurry Heart in her carriage. Whose giggling could be heard over the silence caused by Cadence as she walked closer with an obvious forced smile. "I mean, Damocles successfully made it to Princess Luna and Princess Celestia with only his, wings and abilities." She shuddered as she said it. "So why isn't he good enough to fight Blue Blood." Flurry Heart flew over to Damocles who whispered a smiling 'What's up, brat' which caused her to giggle and poke his nose. Dusk Blade's eyes began to shrink in fear over the Pink Princess.

"You see, your highness, Damocles is too well equipped to fight Prince Blue Blood with out a severe handicap that would force him into a losing situation. Due to his inability to.... breathe his last breath, we would have to limit it so that if Blue Blood merely Incapacitates or restricts his movements for a set period of time. One that would be fair for both. Which again would guarantee ones loss over the other." Midnight picked up in Dusk Blade's place. "Add on the fact that those wings of his have near limitless potential restricted only by his mind. I would say that he should've been made into a unicorn Only you all know what kind of spells he would craft for the betterment of-" he was cut off as a white furred hoof covered his mouth.

"I'm just gonna stop you right there. Let me be frank. Where I go if its not for fun but for something that actually matters, then nothing but devastation and pain is left in my wake... whether I want to or not. Where Lord Tirek sought to destroy on purpose. I do it on accident as I try to keep everything and myself together. Now if you will excuse me I need to go find a unicorn willing to train with me in terms of keeping me restrained... or maybe four...." Damocles walked away slowly from then leaving the group stunned.

"Sister did you Intentionally let him out of your grasp?" Luna said watching him. Before turning to see Celestia's horn was still glowing with a giggling Flurry Heart now in Celestia's Grasp

"No.... Luna... No I did Not...." Celestia stood slack jawed for a moment until Rio Coughed Gaining everyone's attention.

"Princesses... I think I know of that grave danger you speak about. An old Legend from before discord, but it told of Shape Shifters not like Changelings. I don't remember the details and I'm afraid the only ones who knew of it was the elders of my village, who began to tell of it once Changelings had surfaced but they have forgotten it now. I will have to ask them in time to see if I could get more information. But be careful of that one. Pony or not, he carries a Despair in his heart not like any I have seen. Perhaps a therapist will help him?" Rio turned to looked at the three princesses. Belladonna huffed before standing up.

"Sorry to be rude but I'm tired so can someone show me to my room?" She said annoyed. Celestia nodded and they began to walk away followed shortly by everyone else. Except Luna Midnight and Dusk Blade.

"Midnight, Captain Dusk Blade... watch him carefully and see if we can find someone who can help him mentally. Also to make it more fair we will use the terrain adjusters and we will have him be limited to specific weapons and if he resets himself its an instant loss AND he has to be a servant to Blue Blood for 3 months." Luna's voice was distant as if she was questioning her own decisions. Her eyes were locked on the point she last saw Damocles. Her mind locked onto one thought. 'What in his past has he done that warrants so much self hatred to the point he denies it.' The two Knights nodded before giving a salute and taking off to carry out their orders.

**********************************************************************************************

Damocles walked back to his home watching the Windows as the storm was being cleared up by the weather ponies. Taking the blanket form his bed he made a makeshift cloak out of it to hide his wings. After that he began to fly out from the balcony gliding down until the gates of the castle. Still getting used to landing he struggled and slid hard but managed to keep himself upright this time smiling to himself he began to open the wooden gate to let himself out.

"DAMOCLES THERE YOU ARE!" a feminine voice called out forcing himself to stop as he turned to see who was calling him. A bright flash of magic making him jump back with a yelp as he became blinded by it. "Oh sorry I didn't mean to hurt you. Are you ok?" The voice continued sounding worried. Damocles sounded off with a grumble about his eyes. Trying to recognize the voice he opened his right eye blearily to try help it focus.

"Yeah I'm fine Twilight... what is it?"

"I was looking for you because I wanted to ask you some questions about your homeworld... If you don't mind that is I'll pay you back for it if you want." She smiled as she pulled out a quill and a notepad Spike coming up panting heavily before falling over. "oh sorry spike.." She lifted him up and put him on her back as he caught his breath. Sighing heavily Damocles nodded before he scratched his chin.

"Sure twilight under two conditions first is you treat me to lunch somewhere not here, second you help me train. And as long as the questions don't get too personal I'll explain everything I remember." Damocles said as he opened the doors. Twilight nodded happily and walked through Damocles by her side.

"So first thing is first what is the name of the planet, and what country are you from?"

"We call it Earth, its spelt E-A-R-T-H or Terra, I am from the A country found on the western hemisphere north of the equator called 'The United States of America' it is composed of 50 states, or territories, that each have its own elected officials to determine laws and the such as well as to help voice the peoples preferences to the nations leaders. The nations leaders are chosen once every 4 years and anyone filling the requirements for it can attempt to become the leader. When it first began this was called a Democratic Republic but the system is broken and has little no real success and as such violence as well as criminal activity has been steadily increasing. Much Like the Royal guard, We have our own form of Homeland protection but its easily corrupted by 3 simple things, Power, Money, and Sex. Some Criminals even pay cops a good amount of money to ensure they don't get brought to justice. Others cheat the justice system to bend the rules in their favor. It genuinely comes down to this, Those with money have power, those with power have no real rules or restrictions. This has given rise to several non-legal organizations that control certain areas, fight with each other for power and territory and exploit or genuinely protect the people. In that world depending on how much money you have, the type of race you were born to or from gives you too many advantages to were one born into a rich family white family, can literally rape over 50 women get half pregnant and kill the other half and no one would bat an eye. As to where if one is darker skinned and poor its a literal warzone right out their doorstep and even sometimes in their own home. I'll finish the brief political explanation here on the USA. The Human race is the most violent race ever... as a passtime we honestly look for better way to kill each other because of how much we fear each other. And its why I hate humans so much." Twilight stopped writing for a moment as she paused to look at spike who shrugged and they both looked at me.

"But Damocles.... you are human... or atleast were." Twilight's comment made him stop in his tracks as he sat on the stone cobbled ground and looked up a the sky.

"Yeah... and I hate that about me because Humans are the worst, Most of us are Selfish, without honor, cruel, Disloyal, and more than violent to the point a Husband would beat his kids and kill his wife. Some are actually so twisted as to molest their own kids." This made Spike jump down as he walked infront of Damocles. Who in turned looked down at the purple dragon.

"Well not all of you, there has to be a few who are good out there." Spike said with a hopeful smile.

"A child is a dangerous thing for humans, because we are so malleable of mind our innocence purity, the good in the world can easily become twisted and corrupt. There is a saying my father told me, 'Everyone is the hero of their own story but the villain to another.' After I heard that I viewed everyone including myself as a villain because all we do is hurt one another to the point where we can drive a person to kill themselves with words alone. Lets stop for today as I have gotten way off course with what we wanted to talk about. I apologize Twilight, we can continue later on and tomorrow definitely, as i promised as much info as i can afford. I will have to apologize though as somethings my memory is foggy until it has a trigger of some sort." Damocles stood up and turned to face her.

"I would like to ask one more question, What happens to those who grow tired of all the pain, and sadness and destruction? What do they do?"

"They either break down, or give up. Either way it ends up with them reaching the end of their time, if they be living or they let themselves slip from life. Everything we do that brings us happiness is an escape... and at times can burden us." Damocles said before going quite. "Even watching as a group of friends prove happiness can be real, even loving someone...." Twilight hugged him but Damocles made no movement before breathing deep.

"Damocles... I... Its okay, you're away from all that pain and conflict now... Perhaps I can try to talk to Princess Celestia and Princess Luna to make it so can just live peacefully. I'm sure there's..." She stopped as Damocles began to walk forward looking around at the buildings.

"Twilight, they brought me here not to live peacefully but to do what humans do best and fight. At least here there is something worth protecting. So I'll do my best to preserve this world so long as I breathe. Simple as that. A Sword and Shield, to be used in protection and in vengeance. To think that they would want me to be happy is a false hope that I only would wish upon the most twisted of minds. After all, A broken sword can still take a life, a dulled one cannot. Now please lets get something to eat." He turned to look back at her his eyes dull and distant. She merely nodded as spike scratched his chin while the two walked ahead of him.

" 'A Broken sword can still take a life, a dulled one cannot.' Where have I heard that before?" she muttered to herself. "Damocles, you know you're wrong about the princesses. Didn't Cadence ask if she could help you find somepony special for you?" Twilight began to argue, her voice although calm was obviously between annoyed and insulted.

"Yeah, and? Like somebody, I mean somepony, is going to want to be around me especially considering the fact I'm Thestral, and I have Magic Metal wings. I would probably have better luck if Queen Chrysalis sent a Changeling to love me in an attempt to steal love from me, but trust me I would poison them with my love, its bittersweet..." he began to hum at that moment leaving twilight in frustrated stupor.

"YOU ARE INSUFFERABLE!" She screamed making him stop and look back at her as she was huffing she walked closer and started poking him as she continued getting in his face. " You just don't get it. You found someone from your own home who LOVED YOU, and I Know you LOVED HER!" Damocles took a step back but that was met with Twilight taking a step forward. "Yeah you come from what I can tell as a screwed up place that seems worse than death and I'm sure you know about that more than ANYTHING ELSE THAT CAN LIVE because unlike you the rest of us when we die will be dead FOREVER." She took a deep breath before continuing. "Life is filled with good things and bad things. That doesn't mean the good always makes up for the bad but that also means the bad doesn't always take away from good. You have to learn to look for happiness regardless of anything, Damocles. Remember you don't know when you die if it will be your last time. So stop thinking of it as and advantage and look at it like a..." She pondered for a moment to think of a good a simile for the circumstance. "like in one of those new games, you used up your other lives. now get as far as you can on this one. Now I want to know more about your species history as we eat. So lets go, I need a moment to calm down before I really start to get angry." Twilight started to grumble as she left the stunned stallion and began to lead. Leaving spike to look at him.

"Wow... I haven't seen Twilight that upset in a while. You know you are both right though." Spike said calmly as he shrugged his shoulders and started to follow behind Twilight. Damocles furrowed his brows in confusion before trying to catch up with spike.

"How so?"

"Simple answer: you are like Twilight before Celestia moved her to Ponyville. You are alone and its tearing you apart. Unlike her you don't have a spunky assistant whose amazing. The closest thing you have to a real friend is, and I mean this as a joke, your shadow. But you don't even know that. You don't even know everything about your body. For instance did you know you have some extremely powerful jaws and fangs that crush stone easily?" Spike said matter-of-factually.

"I do?" Damocles questioned.

"Yeah all Thestrals do, its to make up for their lack of connection with the sky or magic or earth. They were granted with hearty bodies and will. In recorded history there has only been one Thestral who ran from battle."

"Wait how do you know so much about this?"

"Twilight submitted an examination of Thestrals for her research paper back when she was younger. I had to help do the research. Anyways, the point is that you can't always be so depressing. Yes we accidentally took alot from you. But at the same time we are doing what we can to make up for it. Half of it is you just need to see it for yourself. The difference is here you have people to help. There you were alone until the essential end. Here well you have 4 princesses the nations most powerful defense group and 2 kingdoms essentially to help you, take into consideration you knew what everything here is and even about the fight against Tirek. Then you have to be honest. Wasn't there anything you wanted to do if you could come here? And think about this. How useful is a knight who is always on the verge of mental breakdown? Because you seem to be on your way about it?" Damocles stood stunned and looked at spike when he finished. Spike looked back at him with a questioning look. "What?"

"You... we... how..." Damocles was unable to find the words before he gave deep breath. "Ok I see your point but aren't most of you doing this out of obligation?" Damocles attempted to argue.

"Didn't Twilight go to Ponyville out of obligation?" Spike rebutted. " Now come on. Twilight's waiting on us."

Damocles and Spike followed Twilight as they went down Restaurant Row turning a corner for some powerful spices and scents to strike Damocles hard.

"Welcome to the Tasty Treat." Twilight Said as they walked in. The place seemed to be very busy

"Princess Twilight! Welcome back to the Tasty Treat, We have a table that just opened up." A large and rather round pony with a mustache said with a smile.

"Thank you Coriander, and please just Twilight is fine. You know spike, and this is my new friend Damocles." Twilight explained to the stallion as we walked to the table.

"Ah well a friend of Twilight, is a friend of mine. I am Coriander Cumin. Please Damocles may i take your.. Cloak?" Coriander said with near forced smile as Damocles sat.

"Er.. no thank you, I'm just a little cold you know?" Damocles lied through his teeth as he smiled back. The older stallion knew this and his face showed it.

"Ofcourse, well Allow me to make a recommendation for you since you are so cold,friend. Today's special is Mango Chutney Chicken Curry survived with Fried Bake. It's known to be very warming." Cumin smiled as Damocles nodded.

"That would do perfectly." he sated calmly.

"Oh can I have some of that? You know I love trying Saffron's newest Dishes." Twilight smiled happily.

"Ofcourse, Princess I'll bring you some sweet tea to pair with it as well. And ofcourse Ill have my daughter create you your Saphire and emerald Curry Spike." Cumin stated getting a thumbs up from the dragon before walking away. Twilight and spike then pulled out a quill and a note pad.

"So then, lets begin what can you tell me about the human timeline? And if possible lets avoid the cynicism this time?" Twilight looked at Damocles with a gentle look. Damocles smiled.

"Ok, I'm sorry for earlier. Now... where to begin... Oh.. I just remembered. There was a song someone made that I felt at the time covered the worlds biggests and most important factors. But first, let me say that we original came from caves. Now... How did that song go?" Damocless began to hum

"We learned to band together and endeavor
Clasp our hands together
Man developed language, letters
An incredible advantage, getting plans together
But would we stand the test of time
Against the planet's reckless climate
And its angry weather?" Damocles took a pause to see spike and Twilight scribbling as fast as possible to keep up. Before he continued closing his eyes unaware his wings began to act as a conductors baton would.

"Spread the sails
And head west against the gales
And storms aboard Norse longboats
With decks as dense as nails
Our aim was riding waves
And finding, claiming strange horizons
Invading islands
Native populations slain with violence
Enslaved and made to aim skyward
Think of bigger things - sphinxes, pyramids
Raise them high in the name of different kings
The different things we've held sacred, divine
Through places and times
The range of supplications and rites
Through ages we find
Nations arise
As old civilizations crumble to dust
Becoming strangers in time, waiting to die
Replaced in the night
The day breaks and the light changes
Illuminating newer human faces as fights rage
The human race is facing the might
Of righteous states who would write
The history books even if it took a knife's blade
To find the right page
Sengoku Jidai
Men offered to die
For the honor of a warrior's life"

His wings shifted uncomfortably under the cloak as it began to tear it, Damocles was lost to his own mind and the song not noticing it. In fact only spike noticed but didn't disturb either of them about it as he stared at the wings before trying to pick back up where he left off.

"The sun's coming and we're watching it rise
As a new era's here, it's as solid as iron
Pull the tongs from the fire
Strike the hammer to the anvil
Craft a weapon to bring an enemy to a standstill
The blacksmith is the wizard that gives us
These powers - devour enemies
Leaping down from the siege towers
The better the tech is
The lesser the effort to wreck it
The less time to see their eyes
And feel sympathetic
Never regret it
A true knight never stays a true blade
Never says touché
But would forever lay in blue rays of weathered glades
To demonstrate his never-ending dedication
To the crusade
Reformation through flame
And after the cremation is a new age
Time's quill is quick to spill its ink onto a new page"

Cumin had returned to give the drinks to the customers, everyone had been watching the singing white Thestral who was brought by Princess Twilight. Many of them were shocked about the wings but had did nothing to disturb the princesses guests singing. Some of them even closed their eyes to envision what was sung.

"The faces are the same as when in days gone
But brains are cultivated thus creating
The Renaissance
We're still using steel tools to stay strong
Replacing blades with greater trades
Pen and paper, song
Faith in God is tested, hiding in the desert
Men excited, then enlightened by the scientific method
Tried describing its expression
By inscribing his impression
When applying it to heavenly bodies
That everybody reckoned
Must have been made by a creator or a greater force
Nature's author faced examination never faced before
The grace of horse and rider
Replaced by wars and violence
Debased the laws of science
Made the case for all the pious
Why is it progress always leads to loads of mess
The western region spread across the globe and coalesced
Settlers spread disease with effortless ease
Was it reckless or did it just happen inevitably?
While evidently we never can see
Through the lens of this century
But there's no retreating now
Whether or not it was meant to be"

Soon Saffron Masala came out of the Kitchen to see the source of the song Spike was looking around nervously at the time and had begun biting his talons.

"The seven seas were sailed
Navies prevailed
Leaving trails of devastation in their wake
As people wailed
A world of wonder plundered traded in the name of progress
But human nature's way shows we should expect no less
Oh yes, struck by the realisation this is just civilisation
In the natal stages of industrialisation, trust me when I say
That previous achievements are just child's play
Compared to this colossal school of thought
We set the world ablaze with fossil fuel we bought
It's an epiphany
Giving us pretty much infinite energy
It's electricity
Edison, Nikola Tesla - different inventors
Giving us everything we depend on
Whether it's engines, cinema, television or telecoms
Sending a message and spreading it on
These unreal frontier channels
We develop the tech and then sell it on
The reel travels round
With the speed of a machine gun's barrels
Machinery's a meaner beast and we're still in the saddle
No need for cavalry - battle superseded that with ease
Allies and Axis
Charging each other like batteries
A power vacuum allowing the superstates to flourish
Redistribute the food even if it means people are malnourished
Propaganda is the only view that you're allowed to publish
Cause totalitarians are well aware of how to punish
Gunning down numbers countless
For doubtless nothings that they've done
But that won't stop subversive insurgents
From coming out with courage
Using their power to the fullest
Whether creativity or demonstrating general relativity
Evidently when we find time to be efficient
Einsteinian clear vision can reveal the precision behind the blinds
Nuclear fission
Despite derision
Physicists decide the mission is dividing, splitting atoms
'Till a blinding light is given, quite efficient
The divine right to mankind's plight is christened
A minor decision hijacked by politicians
But as long as they listen to the will of the people
Treat all as brilliant equals, we can achieve more
Than we've ever conceived before"

The entire Restaurant, staff and all, had stopped and listened.

"Leave this poor place
Please explore space
Earth, she's a small base
Even more awaits
I implore great leaders
To lead with all the grace
Of which we're capable
And be the author of your fate
Clasp our hands together
And stand the test of time forever"

Damocles was Panting at the end of it. Only to find that he was at the center of attention his eyes widening as his wings where showing. His pupils were shrinking as he got up slowly before attempting to leave only to be stopped by Twilight.

"And where do you think your going Damocles? We still have eat our food and i still have more questions for you. Although I appreciate the summary I need more details." Spike had started tapping Twilights shoulder because she was still looking down at her notes finishing the summary guide and writing out each question she was thinking of. "Yes what is it spike?" She said as she finally looked up to see a near panicking Damocles and everyone looking at him.

"Wait a second, Damocles?" one of the customers stated before taking out one of the fight posters. "As in 'The Centurion, The Wrath of the loyal' Damocles?" A random spectator stated. The voice belonged to a male which drew a nod from the suspended Pony in question. The Stallion then walked forth Damocles was released and all parties took a good luck at the stallion infront of him. He had a Deep water blue coat and his cutiemark was that of a cracked mirror. His eyes were a more violet than then magenta of Celestia, and his mane was a simple black. "Goodluck in the fight against Prince BlueBlood. Most of us are hoping for you to make it a real showstopper. Based on the sound of your people, violence is something you will be exceptional at." With that the stallion had left.

Almost immediately Damocles was swarmed after everyone heard that he is the new pony the one that is to fight Blue Blood. Twilight turned to Saffron and Coriander.

"I'm sorry guys, I guess our meals will be to go?" They both nodded and shortly came back with a bag that spike took up. "Alright alright everyone back off him, he's still new here and you are all making him uncomfortable besides we need to get back to his training. He has a big day ahead of him." Twilight stated shooing the crowd before taking Damocles and leaving.

"Thank you, Twilight."

"Don't Mention it. now i believe I said I would help train against Unicorns, what exactly is it you need?" Her Voice was kinda hesitant but she would always honor what she promised.

"Oh, Right. Can you Restrain me with your magic and I attempt to fight against it Or drag me down with magic and such? I don't want you to let up until we are back at the castle. Regardless of what happens. OK?" Twilight nodded and began to pour the magic on him it wrapping him and increasingly weighing him down.

"I'll do this to help you with your training but you have to answer more of my questions ok?" Damocles gave a resound 'Eyyup' which made Twilight Double take for a moment.

Time went on and it was a solid 3 hours of Damocles struggling to move while answering Questions. Only 2 times did Twilight really have to amp up the amount of magic poured onto Damocles and as the result of the training. When they walked back into the gates and into one of the larger halls neither one of them noticed the dark figures moving along the ceiling nor did they hear anything over their talking.

"Wow... Just the amount of scientific discoveries made by your people and completely without any kind of magic to the point where they could produce something like that?! to the point where you can communicate visually with other people from across the world? let alone in the same COUNTRY! Damocles you have to help me do this! WIll you?" Twilight was jumping up and down excited by the thought creating these things.

"ummm sure, but I dont know a lot about programming that stuff, or the details for it. I'll try to help you as much as possible but how about first we focus on trying to create the Internet?" Damocles presented the Idea to twilight who began to nod slowly understanding her new friends comments and concerns.

Mean while 3 figures along the cielings rafter silently counted down before they jumped down like ninja's onto Damocles pinning him. Twilight screamed at first and was ready to fire a blast of magic before she heard one of the assailants' voice.

"Damocles is back from his Date with the princess of friendship and it seems like he completely forgot about us doesn't it Veil?" The male asked the female as they got off him. "I wonder if that means you and Satin or maybe even Eclipse is gonna have 2-3 princesses to fight for him." He teased. He stood tall as the Simple of the ram was etched onto his armor shoulder pads but significantly smaller that the Declared Zodiacs.

"Oh Knock it of Virulent, Sorry About that Princess, Damocles you need to be more aware of your surroundings, Dusk Blade would wring your neck for that." the one reffered to Veil stated. She wore armor bearing the Scorpio zodiac but again less apparent. Now come on. Princes Luna Demands your Audience to talk about what fighting style your going to use." Veil stated suddenly getting serious.

"Besides as cute as he is, We don't know anything about him to see if we even are interested in him. Right Veil?" the one assumed to be satin stated. "Although we certianly have seen enough." the two Thestral mares began walking forward infront of Virulent, Damocles, and Princess Twilight.

"Wait what do they mean by that?" Virulent turned to look at D amocles who was redder than a cherry.

"Damocles I'll let you go, we will have plenty of time to talk about those Cellular Phones when we get to ponyville, you're just going to love it there I know it. Oh and I'll Leave your food with One of celestia's guards to take to your tower ok?"Twilight stated.

"Not necessary my princess, I'll take it and watch over it he won't be talking to luna for long and he is supposed to eat lunch right after so that will be simple." Virulent took the Box marked "For the Loyal" that was in the bag from Spike Damocles ran after the two mares followed by Virulent Quickly after.
