Evolution

The girls had gathered at Sugar Cube corner, awaiting the news that had Applejack all excited. When they asked she said it was Tavo's letter so he should give the news. They all sat in the same room conversing about various things that have happened in the four days since the train accident and the aftershock. The engineers of the actual train arrived a day after the incident to reclaim the Alpha Prototype however they didn't know Tavo had demolished it and sent pieces to different junkyards. They were angered by the act and demanded full pay for the hard work they put into it. Then Tavo gave them a sack that was filled with enough bits to pay off everything. They asked him how he got that much money and he said he found it. They were suspicious at first but considering the hefty sum they left Ponyville with no questions asked. Then the aftershock came the next day and gave them something else to talk about.

Yet they all had the same thing on their minds, the strange Tavo. "So no pony knows anything about him?" Asked Applejack they all nodded. "Well all he does is work with you or walk around the town, wandering. And whenever they ask him he just says its personal." said Rainbow Dash "He's also a little strange with that weird thing that happens to ponies that’ve seen him." said Rarity "you mean you all felt it too?" Applejack asked, they nodded. Fluttershy shook a little remembering the horrible flashes and the smiling monster. "Wait me and Pinkie Pie never felt anything." Said Rainbow Dash. "well that's because you flew into him too fast to even notice him. As for Pinkie, I'm not sure?" Applejack said, she then turned to Pinkie Pie "Did ya feel anything strange when ya saw him?" she asked, Pinkie Pie put a Hoof under her chin and sat. For a long moment of silence, finally she broke it "nope." She said they all looked confused

"Is that all?" Twilight asked "well now that you mention it I did feel really, really happy!" said Pinkie pie, they were confused and decided to move on. "Well another thing that's strange about him is all those scars on his body." said Twilight "not to mention the creepy stitched smile on his mouth." Added Rarity "wait he wasn't smiling?" randomly added Pinkie Pie. As they conversed on about his appearance, Fluttershy was sitting quietly on the stairs. She remembered the train and the near death experience and the strange yet wonderful feeling she got when their noses touched. She didn't understand it but suddenly an unknown force forced her to speak up. "Why are we talking about the way he looks? It’s obvious he's been through so much and overcame it all, its not his fault he looks like the way he does!" she said assertively before retreating they all felt guilty for what they said. She's been acting strange ever since the accident but she was right "Plus he did save the town, the girls and Fluttershy, not to mention paid off a price that could have put Ponyville in major problems." Rainbow Dash Said "She's right, we owe him a lot." Twilight said.

"He's also very polite too." Rarity added. Pinkie Pie’s eyes lit up "We should throw him another party." She said "we should. To celebrate all that he's done for the town." As they agreed cheerfully, a knocking came from the door. They got excited hoping it was him. When they opened the door however, it was Spike carrying a letter. They were confused "spike what are you doing with the letter?" Twilight asked "Tavo said he was too busy so he asked me to deliver the message." Spike said. Twilight wondered what could have happened but shrugged it off thinking that it must have been important. "well go ahead spike, read the letter." She said. Spike opened it and pulled out the piece of paper with the royal seal at the top and began reading it aloud:

Dear Tavo

I hereby invite you and six guests to a private dinner party hosted by me and Princess Luna tomorrow, night. A train will arrive to bring you to Canterlot in the afternoon. We hope to see you here and that you and your friends enjoy the dinner.

Sincerely Princess Celestia

"A Private dinner party with the Princess!" their eyes lit up "she must have heard about what he did for the town and wants to celebrate too." Applejack said smiling. "Oh this is going to be so exciting!" Twilight Exclaimed. Now she could show the Princess the mysterious book.  They all were excited and were leaving Sugar Cube Corner for their homes to prepare for tomorrow. They couldn't be more excited about it. Fluttershy was slowly flying home. She felt something happen on that day, something strange yet amazing she didn't understand. What was stranger was that on the night the aftershock hit, she dreamt something strange. A dream where Tavo was standing at the edge of an enormous fire kneeling, bleeding, smiling and crying. She didn't understand this but she kept it a secret from her friends. She didn't want them to worry.

Tavo had caught up with the thing that had tried to eat an innocent filly in the park. It was a Manticore and as soon it stopped and turned to attack, Tavo rammed it sending it flying against a tree knocking it down. Before it could escape, Tavo brought his right large hoof on its chest. It tried to escape but it couldn't move out of his force.  “you think it's a good idea to try and eat innocent little Fillys while I'm around, am I correct?" he said in an Aggressive voice. When it tried to use its stinger on him, Tavo was faster and brought his right back hoof down on it crushing and severing it, then putting more force on his front hoof. Tavo was almost as large as the creature who was crying out in pain. "I wish I didn't have to do this but you gave me a new reason to change my opinion on royals if you ate meat so guess what's gonna happen to you now?" he asked it while it was flailing around its arms.

In that moment Tavos eyes changed. The black iris overlapped the whole eyes leaving nothing but a black abyss in his eyes. A thin yellow bright circle with a white dot had formed where the actual eyes should have and yellow glowing veins had formed giving him a bloodshot appearance. With this act the creature stopped and looked terrified. Then suddenly the ground it was laying on suddenly began to emit smoke and burned then it started to feel a burning inside of it. The burning grew and the creature started sweating and yelping. Then Octavio eyes glowed "Im gonna burn you from the inside out!" he said then the creature flailed trying to escape but it kept burning and kept getting hotter.

Then fire emitted from its mouth and its eyes burning and melting them to a steaming puddle. It shrieked louder and louder until the fire had burned through the skin and fur and the ground they stood upon had caught on fire. Now Tavo was standing in a circle of fire of a screaming animal. In the middle of its screaming Tavo spoke “I never believed in mercy by the way.” Then the screaming stopped. Tavo's eyes reverted back to normal and just like that, the fire surrounding him ceased leaving behind ash and a black shriveled corpse. He put more force in his hoof braking through the ashy chest and ribcage into a hot puddle of molten blood and organs. "Damn look at this mess. Hope the forest has a way of cleaning this." He said lifting his hoof up. He left the scene and began thinking to himself. If this thing acts like any animal on my world then the ponies in canterlot are the same. He grimaced and decided to walk home. "If they are what I know of, then I can't be held responsible for what I'll do."
