"You know you didn't need to tell them that. Part of their training as far as we understand is information Gathering." Sunset Said.

"There was nothing in the rules saying we couldn't be where get their information from." Applejack looked smugly. "Now its late and tomorrow is a school day. You lot get going I'm going to bed." Apple Jack said as she started walking back to her home.

"Well I guess we back to the car..." Satin said. Sunset leading the way the rest of the group following.

"Does anyone else find it strange Damocles hasn't showed up yet?" Tender asked.

"I don't know back at the club he left on foot... so he may be a ways away or waiting for us in the next area." Veil said.

"That or just waiting for us to drop our guard." Virulent countered. At that moment a heavy wind blew through the trees each their leaves shaking and rustling against one another. Everyone in this moment stopped, their muscles tensed and ears straining to hear anything akin to movement. As the wind died they stayed like that for a moment longer before resuming their movements.

"Hold on a second guys... Did anybody notice how silent it is?" Sunset asked.

"Yes Sunset its very quiet what of it?" Virulent asked annoyed and sore.

"No Virulent.. She means where are the sounds of the animals like owls?" Satin said the group stayed quiet as things stayed deathly quiet.

"Move slow, satin in center along with Sunset. Vector Formation Protect the VIP and keep your eyes on the trees." Veil ordered Everyone took their positions Immediately.

"So the princesses are sure that this guy is a good guy right? Because this is some Horror Story level stuff." Sunset was obviously scared.

"Well When we took on the job we are told we are his elite unit as well as his Wardens... so we Think he is a good guy?" Veil asked more than stated. The spoke while moving.

"I mean yeah he's crazy strong and shouldn't be capable of a lot of things he is." Virulent said.

"Not to mention that his Psychoanalysis report points to him being... well his mind is above average and on the darker side of the spectrum. I need to recommend to Luna he goes to Therapy." Tender said muttering the last bit to herself.

"Plus he seems to have more advantages then us when it comes to Combat." Satin Said as her foot stepped into a large lasso loop without touching it. "Like honestly? where was this guy during the Pegasus and Griffon Wa-AHHH!" Satin screamed the loopp tightened around her ankle when she went to move out of it and she was dragged away dropping the book."HELP!" She screamed as she disappeared into the dark of the woods. before Suddenly going quiet.

"WHERE THE BUCK DID SHE GO?!" Sunset Screamed.

"I GOT THE BOOK!" Tender said. As the Wind Began to rustle the trees again leaves falling from them from the force of the gales.

"Crud he's in the Trees! Get to the Clearing NOW!" Veil ordered as she picked up Sunset, Virulent popping an adrenaline pill and grabbing Tender hoisting her over his shoulder before the group began to book it.

"Hmmm.... Seem they either think you are lost or are too afraid to fight me." Damocles Said while returning to a dangling upside down Satin that had been gagged. Holding her dress up so she doesn't flash him by accident.

"... How should I deal with you." He mused to himself silently before snapping his fingers, As the rope came loose dropping Satin down. "Let's Play a game Satin.... You and me." He said to the girl as she spat out the gag.

"What kind of game?" She eyed him wearily. This made Damocles Smile with his fangs showing.

"You have 3 options. You can either A. Play hide and seek with me. B. Find something that shouldn't belong, or C. play 2 truths and 1 lie."

"What does the winner get?" She asked seriously.

"If you win any of the games I Stay back for 1 hour. Giving you guys ample time. As there is about 2 hours left."

"And if you win?" Her eyes narrowed.

"If I win when you get back to your group you hand me the book." He said.

"And should I choose not to play?"

"Then you fight me. And Let's be honest, you are not the fighter your sister is... But you're smarter. I'll Give you that much." Damocles said With an honest smile.

"How long would each game be?" Satin asked. Damocles clicked his tongue.

"That's enough Questions, Decide which game now." He said as he started to count down from ten. As he reached two Satin Spoke up.

"2 Truths 1 lie!" She said frantically. Damocles actually looked shocked for a moment. Before nodding slowly.

"Ok then We will keep playing until one of us has figured 3 lies. That's how the winner is decided, However if we have 5 draws as in neither of us then that means I take you to the next area but you are bound for atleast 3 minutes. Do you agree to these Terms?" He spoke softly and kindly as he explained the rules. In the distance they could hear the car driving off.

"Yes, Sacrifices have to be made and risks taken to ensure the mission is a success, I am no fool to this." Satin said.

"Then let us begin. I'll Start the first round." waiting for a nod from Satin he began. "I have been cheating this entire time. I have been looking for something specific in each of you. I have a slight attraction to some of the girls here." He said smiling at her. She frowned as he said the last statement.

'Which is the real lie... it should be obvious that the lie is he is cheating but why say that he is attracted to some of the girls in this world...' Her eyes widened. 'Wait Could he have been like the creatures here?' Looking into his eyes for any kind of tell.

"Times up what's the lie?"

"The lie is... You're attracted to some of the girls here isn't it." Satin said Anger caressing her features.

"Very good Satin, Your turn." He held up his left hand putting a finger up.

"I don't think you are here to protect our world. I hate that Princess Luna took you on as a Son. I intend on finding a way to kill you permanently." She said

"hmm the lie is that you intend on finding a way to kill me permanently, you think that living for neigh eternity is punishment enough." Damocles sighed with a roll of his eyes. Putting a finger up on the other hand. "My turn, I don't intend on saving the world. I intend on being the greatest evil there can be. I'm going to put all of you through Tartarus."

"I thought you were going to make this hard. The lie is that you don't intend on saving the world." Satin said sure of herself, this made Damocles laugh.

"Wrong, Your turn."

"I love my family. I have a child at home. My Boyfriend beats me." She said with a smirk. This made Damocles Scowl.

"You Don't have a child... And I'll be paying your Boyfriend a visit later." Damocles hissed angrily. This made Satin take a step back confused.

"How did you figure it out?" Her voice was soft and timid.

"You fur may be dark but I can still bruises through it because of the pain you give off. Your good at masking but not that good. And you were going to have a child but because of what I assume was a drunken fight he made sure you wouldn't...." He said calmly.

"HOW DID YOU FIGURE IT OUT!" Tears were forming in her eyes. He sighed softly as he stepped towards and held Satin close to him.

"You know my strength comes from eating the despair of other right?" She nodded stiffly. "I was able to taste your despair when you said those... listen... when we get back the first chance we get I'm going to put that fucker down... and then you can just lean on me and cry... cry as much as you need to..." He said softly as he stroked her hair. "We can talk more about this later but for now its my turn ok?" She nodded softly. "I used to be an older Brother, and I would like to be one again by being yours. My old little sister was almost raped once so know I will protect you. This is just an excuse to get you into bed with me." She punched him softly as her breath hitched before slowly pulling him into a hug.

"I know you don't want to have sex with any of us... not for a long while." she said softly.

"Correct... its your turn."

"I don't know what to think of you. One moment you seem to be something like a monster then like a white knight the next. You're like prince shining armor."

"You know I'm the opposite of Shining Armor. He represents the Light."

"And you Represent the Dark.. You win Sir..." Satin said as she let go and looked at him. Damocles's Red eye was glowing softly in the night.

"Yeah I do... Come on." He lifted her up. "Sorry I've been cheating but I need to make sure to put you all to your limits."

"Oh it's fine but I'll be letting your mother know." Damocles's metal moved down and out of the shirts bottom above the pant's flapping he took flight.

"So this is how you have been moving about?"

"Yeah..." Flying faster and Faster they eventually made it to the park where he dropped her off by sunset's Car. The rest where obviously inside getting the signature. "1 hour left... I wont be bugging you guys until the last one... And remember our deal." He said before Flying off.

"You remember your promise." She said as he disappeared into the dark of the night.

"Satin?! You're OK!" Sunset Shouted with Relief.

"No.. No I'm not." Satin said...

"What's wrong where did he hurt you?" Tender asked running to her.

"Mental warfare..." she shivered slightly.

"I Swear to Luna Damn it That bucker is cheating!" Virulent argued. "We have to hurry to the track before he strikes again."

"Guys... he is cheating." Satin said which made everyone stop.

"What do you mean Satin?" Veil's voice was very serious.

"he's using his wings to move around faster... That's how he is able to keep pace with us so easily."

"Wings? Guys we aren't in equestria he can't have wings not unless he has some kind of magic." Sunset explained. "Anyways we don't have time to waste you guys have 1 hour left and we need to get you to the next location."

"Yeah some kind of Athletics field, involving a ball feet." Virulent rolled his eyes. They all got in the car as Sunset Drove to the school where there was Rainbow dash practicing soccer.

"It's About time You all got here!" She complained. " Hurry up and give me the book so I can sign it and then head back home to get ready for class." She held out her hand waiting. All but snatching the book from Tender and writing in it. "Your Riddle is this." She said with a cocky smile before throwing the book like a Frisbee only for a Purple Dog to catch it mid air and start running away.

"Chase that Mutt!" Virulent called out. Causing everyone to break into a mad dash after it.
