Chapter 1: Freedom

Pov: Strychnine
A thousand years ago, I was imprisoned by the two sisters, and left in this forest to rot. However, they didn't account for the magic of the six to fade overtime. It took a while, even though the magic was nearly gone, to break free of that prison...but break free I did, and now I have one goal. To find the two sisters, and beg for forgiveness. Five hundred years ago I would have sought out revenge, but a lot has changed...both for the better, and for the worst.
“Now, where was that castle?” I asked, not expecting a response
“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!” Three foal screamed, running east.
“Well, that was uncalled for...then again, I don’t exactly look like a fluffy bunny.” I said to myself, and it was true. My appearance was that of a monster. Black chitin, Scorpion tail, Two winding horns, Dark red eyes and mane. Sorta like Fluffle Puff’s sister!!! But with a Scorpion tail!!!
Well, might as well follow them...after all, What could go wrong?

Pov Strychnine
I followed the hoofprints the foals left to find myself near what appeared to be a town, or a village perhaps. 'Seems like not much has changed since I was incarcerated, I wonder anyone here could help me.' I thought. I was about halfway to a bridge that led into town, when a blue blur crashed into me. I was a bit shocked at first, seeing that the blur was a pegasus that had tried to tackle me!
"You are not going to hurt ANYPONY!!" The blue pegasus mare yelled, before bucking me in the chest.
The buck did absolutely nothing to me. "So, you assume I'm here to hurt the populace of this village?" I ask, and she bucked me again. "I will take that as a yes. Might I know the identity of the pegasus assaulting me?" I ask
"Rainbow Dash, remember meas that one pegasus that KICKED YOUR FLANK BACK TO TARTARUS!!!" she said, bucking me twice.
"Or the little pegasus that could." I say, giggling a bit, and receiving a whirlwind of bucks.
"Why wont you fall?" she asks, obviously tired
"Because my chitin is like plate metal. Now, can you contact the princesses? I really need to converse with them."
"Buck this, I'm getting Twilight." She says shortly before flying as fast as she can tword a tree, and entering it. Shortly after that I see green mist rise up out of the house, and rush off. A few seconds later, a purple alicorn ran out alongside Rainbow Dash.
'Ahh, this must be Twilight, and she's an alicorn! Perhaps she can contact the pri-' My train of thought was cut off due to Twilight yelling
"I DON'T KNOW WHO YOU ARE, BUT I SENT A MESSAGE TO THE PRINCESS! SHE WILL BE COMING HERE, SOON, SO RUN WHILE YOU CAN!" She yelled, probably thinking I was afraid of them.
"Splendid, now all I have to do is wait." I said, sitting down on a nearby bench. "Can I get an ETA on when they will be arriving?"
"What? Wait, why aren't you running?" Rainbow Dash asked
"Well if you were listening during that little skirmish you had with my chest, you would know that I am looking for the princesses. So, can I get an ETA Twilight?" I ask, smirking a bit
"About...an hour maybe? hour and a half if she's i- Wait, why am I telling you this? WHAT SPELL DID YO-"
"Do you think it wise to yell at a possible threat?" I ask
"Wha-"
"Oh, you're one of THOSE heroines. well then let me be clear, if you continue these hostilities I will make your death slow and painful." I said "Now, is there anywhere I can stay, besides Tartarus."
"How does the Canterlot dungeon sound Strychnine?" A fammilar voice asked
"Ahhh, Sunbutt...just the mare I've been looking for. me and you have things to discuss, and by things I mean terms of surrender." I say
" Equestria will never surrender to you!" She says, sparking her horn up possibly getting ready for a fight.
"Oh no no no no no, your mistaken Celestia. I did not mean Equestria surrender, I meant mine." I said grinning
