A nightmare, well I certainly didn't think that was possible. Nothing much I can do about now though. What was it about... It was all multicoloured and shit. Ah fuck it, I can't remember the damn thing which is concerning considering my supposed perfect memory.

I get out of bed a bit slower than I wanted, but nothing I can do. As I get to my feet I begin to walk to the rooms private bathroom before stopping. I don't need to piss, that is... Weird, it's practically a morning ritual by now. Deciding to ignore it I check my clothes in a mirror and notice that they are a fairly simple.

A blazer, unbuttoned dress shirt, dress pants and polished boots. Pretty plain. Lets change that.

After I finish shifting the biomass that makes up my clothing I can't help but smile and nod at my new clothing choice.

The blazer stays roughly the same exept that it has its sleeves rolled up, after that I have a black suit vest over a grey dress shirt that gets longer near the back and is almost completely unbuttoned except for the middle and under that is a plain purple shirt. For trousers I have a grey pair of dress pants and for shoes I have grey and white boots. On each of my legs, on the sides of the thigh, are leather holsters for Jackal and Casull.

Overall it looks like a modified version of handsome Jacks clothes. The primary differences being the colour and the size.

Not being one to waste time I make my way to the door by shade stepping 'cause why not. As I open the door I notice that Swift Feather is standing there with her arm raised probably going to attemp to wake me.

"Morning." I say which seems to bring back from her stupor.

"Good morning." The good is subjective, but whatever.

"Did you need anything or did you just miss me that much?" hahaha, making people blush is fun, I should make a game out of it. What should it be called though. I'll think about it later.

"The uh... Princesses wanted to invite you to breakfast." How kind, I wonder if they have cheese. Is cheese breakfast food, pretty sure it's an anything food.

"Lead the way." and with that simple request I start another adventure of aquiring knowledge of the castles layout. At least feom my room to the dining hall, cafeteria. Something like that.

"So umm?" a conversation, thank the Gods.

"Yeeessss?" that sounded freaky as hell, I ain't no Hisoka. Ah Hisoka, you scary bastard. That's good memories there.

"Well, there is a rumour that you are getting a noble title as well as being knighted. Is it true?" so that's what this is about. Wonder why she cares.

"Yeah, I'm more interested in the knighthood to be honest. Wonder if I'll get my own armour." Alright now she seems nervous.

"You're not going to turn out like most nobles, are you?" if by being like most nobles means being beyond sexy then yes, yes I will be.

"Care to elaborate, i've... Been asleep for a few thousand years and I don't really understand most things here." That's the lie I told Twilight, might as well stick with it.

"I'm not supposed to say this, but most of the nobles are selfish and corrupt. I rather you not be like them. You seem like a nice person, so it would be sad to see you become so vile." I get the feeling that she doesn't now i've already killed hundreds of people, granted they were diamond dogs so they're barely human.

"I can safely say that I will not become a selfish noble. As long as I have no reason to get upset I'll be content." This puts her a ease. Gonna admit, feels nice that someone is concerned. Enough of the emotion crap, we're here.

"Well, I hope to see you later." Might as well be polite.

"Goodbye, swifty." A nickname already, haven't even given Spike one yet. Dovahkiin will do for now since he is technically a dragon born.

Entering the dining hall was awkward to say the least. Celestia was sitting there alone, in a table fit for at least thirty to forty people.

"Princess, Morning. Where's you your sister?" I say with a nod in her direction.

"Good morning, Chris. She has already eaten and gone to sleep." oh right, nocturnal.

I walk over to where Celestia is and take a seat next her.

"I see you've procured new clothes." Hmm, strange. Does she have an inner fashoin sense that's tellling her how fabulous I look.

"You like, it's inspired by an ambitious man." not an untrue statement.

"It's definitely different than most of the clothes the nobles wear." that wasn't a confirmation or denial.

"My ask you a few questions as we eat?" I don't need to eat and the only reason I would is for memories and mutations.

"Go ahead." Wonder what she will ask.

"May I ask where you come from? You just showed up yesterday and saved an entire town. I was curious as to were you live." Hiw do I answer this. Simple, by telling her my fabricated backstory.

"You wouldn't know, the world I once knew is gone and in its place is... Here, I guess." She seems really curious now.

"How so?" well, time to tell her of my current predicament that is totally true.

"There isn't much to it. At somepoint I went to sleep and later, possibly thoudands of years in the future, I wake up." Now Celestia seem a bit skeptical.

"If you had to guess how long would you say you've slept for?" Hmm, how to answer this one without answering

"When Twilight asked me which type of race I was like a dragon or magi, I had no idea what she was talking about. So, before the races existed." The look in her eye seems to tell me she believes, surprisingly enough, but that's probably because I don't have any ticks to give away i'm lying and looking in my eyes won't help as i'm sure I don't have a soul to read. Unless viral bacterium has souls.

"That's beyond anything we understand at the moment. So long, possibly millions of years." not that bad, not like I really care for anyone back home aside from a few friends and the odd family member.

"There is a lot to tell about the past. Like it is far more advanced, technology wise, than Equestria." Now her eyes jave widened. "Though there were a lot more wars, a few of I fought in." That's over embellishing, but I remember playing through my video games like I lived through them. Alien: Isolation though. Egh, not fun. Then there's Outlast, hell to the no.

"I see. Well, I'd like to inform you that your ceremony for your noble title and knighthood is scheduled for tomorrow." so much time to spare, mabye I should go back to sleep, nah that'll be boring. Besides, if this is like any other Equestrian universe then this castle has a problem with blueballs. Not literally of course that'd be fuckin' weird.

"Anyway, it is nearly time for the morning court to start. I should head over to make sure i'm ready. I'll see you soon." what a nice lady. No point sitting here, time to explore the castle.

Getting up off my chair I leave the dining hall and make off in a random direction hoping to something and for the longest time I don't find anything until I come across an art gallery full of people. It's like nine in the morning, why are there so many people.

After walking in i'm greeted with the sight of many different artistic pieces, all of which were pretty decent. Nothing mind blowing quite yet, unfortunately.

Then I come across it.

One of the shit ones.

I stand there almost glaring as the piece of crap hanging on the wall. It's an almost completely white canvas with a single green line running through the centre. This isn't art. A dog could do it if I dipped its ass in paint and it scooted along the floor. I look at the description below until I find however made it and to my surprise it was Blueblood. I will be the first to admit that I thought he would be a good painter. He has fuck all friends, he needs to do something with his life and I though painting would be it. Mabye piano then.

Although thinking about the painting makes me remember something else I said I was going to do.

Time to draw a comic.

And done. I'm impressed, only took me about five hours to recreated. Granted it has no colour and the details aren't as full as they could be, but everything else is there.

As I said to Spike it's a Red Hood comic. I'll have him read it when I get the chance. I almost feel like thanking the person who I got all the drawing equipment from, but he wasn't using it so I took it upon myself to lay claim to the art supplies.

Looking at the clock, I notice that it's about half one. Leaving the comic in my room, I get up and walk out and straight into someone.

"Watch where you are walking you inept buffoon!" hoooooly shit. That smell is potent as fuck. It's a combination of something musky and bloody. Musky means that he's either not showered in a while or he's been having intimate relations with someone. The blood though, that means a fight or accident. Worst cause scenario, this guy had to get violent before forcing himself on someone. Best case is he doesn't like washing and cut himself pretty badly.

"Are you going to apologise for walking into your prince or are you going to stand there like the imbecile you are!" Oooh ho ho ho hooooo. Worst case it is. I can't just straight up kill him though, not without proof. I'm going to stalk him for the rest of my time in Canterlot. Firstly though, lets play along.

"My apologies, my Prince. I was blinded by your brilliance and couldn't see where I was going." This is bullshit. There no way he'l-

"I suppose I can't fully blame you then. Very well, continue with your work servant." Hahahaha, he's lucky I don't have a sense of pride mearly mock narcissistic personality to joke around with.

Now then, lets stalk a prince.

Suspicious already. Hasn't been a full half an hour and he is already up to something. If the fact that he is trying to not be suspicious isn't suspicious then the fact that he has left the castle completely, without an escort, and has found his way into an alleyway definitely is.

He stops and knocks on a door and I hear a voice coming from it. "Yes?"

"Sigma." what the hell, a password, maybe.

"Welcome back, Prince." and with the door opens and Blueblood walks in. Deciding to find out what's going on, I create a small wasp out of Blacklight and when it wakes up I send it off, into the building. I wait for about twenty minutes, trying to draw out magic so I can get a feel for it, when the wasp returns I absorb it back into my vody and its memories pour into me.

"A slave ring? Ha, more like an excuse to kill. Hold on... Is that... Swifty. Now I have to be careful." after deciding on a course of action I walk over to the door and knock on it.

"You look new, now the password?" could you have at least try to conceal something is going on.

"Sigma." I hear the door unlocking. As soon as it opens I see the man guarding the door. I didn't really take in his appearance as the second there was enough room I changed my right hand into the claws and ripped the guys throat open then consumed him.

A recruit. Ha, bad time to get hired. What he does know is that this thing is lead by someone called Chrystal. I soooo wonder who that is. Totally not a changeling and certainly not a queen.

In the guise of the rook, I walk into the complex. After a few moments of wandering the halls and looking around the place I find a few little goodies. The first thing was a small bag of bits, I don't need money for anything, but I feel like having it for possible bribery. The next thing I see is a lone noble, standing there by themselves with no one around. Making the choice to consume them and dawn a new disguise, since it's likely a new guard would be suspicious if they were caught wandering, and with it I walk over to the final thing I found. A large set of double doors are in feont of me and the smell coming from it indicates that it is likely full of people, horny people, but still people. At least until i'm done, then they'll be a meal.

"Ah, sir Red Crest, there you are." who's this.

"Lady Hollow, to what do I owe the pleasure." Thank the Gods for lymphocytes, if I didn't get peoples memories, my life would be so much more bloody.

Why am I even disguised again. Kicking down the door and slaughtering everything would have been the preferred option. Oh right, Swifty, she got caught up in all this and unfortunately she isn't secretly a noble meaning there is one reason for her here and the only reason I bothered helping personally. I was going to let the guard do it, but I would rather her not be a hostage if things went south.

What these little creatures wouldn't expect is for say, a noble to suddenly start killing everyone, they wouldn't even have the time to get there pants up much less take a hostage.

"I just never exp-ack!" to be stabbed in the throat, for the face of your friend to be last thing you see or to see a mans arm turn into a weapon.

Oh... It people have noticed what has happened. Might as well not waste free food and with that I stsrted consuming the girl I killed to everyone's shock and horror. Deciding to start of the party, drew Jackal and Casull then start ripping in to people.

The first person to try and fight back manged to get and energy bolt to hit me and other than searing into my shoulder, which hurt like hell, nothing particularly bad happened as it started to heal over.

The man who shot reached his end when I dashed forward and jammed Casull into his eye before pulling the trigger, painting everything behind him red, including the other nobles and even a few slaves.

Then, as if by some unanimous and unspoken agreement, all the nobles stsrted firing and I have to admit the shots that hit burned. One of the few thing that can hurt be are things that burn my biomass, hell, anything that causes me to lose mass hurts so thst includes burning, tteaeing and corroding.

Thinking about desting I make a test and to my eternal thanks it was successful. Summoning the sentinels shield, I hold it in front of my and all the shots start hitting it. After the barrage stops I take an unneeded breath before drawing my arm backwards and throwing it forwards, making the shield fly towards the nobles and it starts bouncing off of them like a sick game of pinball, incinerating any who get hit by the shield. When the shield runs it's course the shield evaporates into nothingness.

Seeing the nobles look on in horror, I allow myself a smirk of satisfaction. Thinking on it, I remember that the demon I ate a while ago still has knowlege on quite a few nasty spells thst I can put into practice because of that magic xenomorph.

Lifting up my left hand, I watch as it ignites into flame without harming my. Not knowing what to do, I decide to Mustang it. Pointing my hand towards the terrified nobles, I snap my fingers and a large flame erupts forward and engulfs the cowardly creatures in flesh melting hellfire.

Smiling a little more at the screams I look around and see something under a table. Walking over, I look under the table and see something that disgusts me.

Blueblood.

The creature itself is hiding from me, attempting to get away from its punishment. I grab the bastard by the ear and drag him out from under the table before pulling him up to his feet and giving him a headbutt to the bridge of his nose making him fall backwards again.

"Pease don't kill me! I'll give anything you want, even leave Equestria, you name it and i'm there."

"You now what, you can go somewhere for me. Hell." with that statement, I pick up one of the few knives that were a random table. Turning back to Blueblood I think about what to do since I have no intention of doing this quickly.

"Halt! You are under arrest for multiple accounts of murder!" oh great, royal guards. More like a royal pain in the ass. With the knife I picked up I throw it on the ground. By throwing, I mean stabbed and by ground I mean Bluebloods groin.

After witnessing such a brutal display all if the guards present grimaced. With this small opening I run forward with a burst of speed and clothes line the guy that shouted because I can. With that done I keep running outward, knocking over anyone in my way, and eventually I find my way out of the building.

When I get outside I jump up on the side of the building ahead of me and kick of it with enough force to send me upward and on to the roof. Checking for any Avious guards I change back into my normal form after seeing no one around.

Deciding it's time to return to the castle I jump of the roof, landing in the middle if the street and I make my way back to the castle.

Thinking back, I smile. There were peole of all types of aspects back there. Checking for any new mutations, my smile gets wider than before.

The mutations I got are:

-Terran magic, with this I you can influence plants and animals to a degree. The more magic you gain the more control over nature you get.
-Muscle mass/Terran physiology, with the consumption of many Terrans you have gained the ability to increase the mass of your muscles.
-Avious magic, can manipulate the weather and even stand on clouds.
-Avious physiology, like an angel of death you are now capable of flight, as long as your wings are stong enough to compensate for your emense weight.
-Magi magic, with the consumption of many magi, you can now perform they're spells easier.
-Magi physiology, magi have magically conductive bones and circuitry making spells easier to do and more powerful.
-Devastation, with the amount of biomass you have absorbed you can now do a Devastation attack that is liable to kill everything short of a large dragon with incredible viral tendrils that spray everywhere in a three hundred and sixty degree and angle around you. This attack causes you to lose a chunk of your biomass.

Cool, now all I need is to kill and eat a dragon and I'll get to do some dicy moves.

Well, time to go back to the castle and hope Celestia doesn't suspect me of murdering those creatures in noble skin. I she asks me I won't deny, but if she doesn't ask, she doesn't need to know. That's how I done it back home, that's how i'll do it here.

Now to more important matters. This world isn't as safe as I had assumed, it was a naive assumption anyway. Mabye I'll go down the vigilante route.

Hahaha, time for the Red Hood to rise in Equestria.

Author's Note

No, he isn't going to become the Red Hood. Before I come up with the Vigilante name, you guys may give a suggestion, I was thinking Blacklight for his name because it makes sence.

Tell us watch you think of this chapter and if there is anything I can improve on.

After a little research with a friend you can all expect Chris to become a real powerhouse in the future, i've got surprises.
