There we sat for a couple minutes in silence as I stared at Twilight, she stared at me and the others were staring at both of us.

"Let me start by saying that you all will leave here unharmed if you simply listen." I said in a calm voice trying to lower the tension.

"First off what the hay are ya?" Applejack questioned.

"I'll get to that eventually, but first things first. I am not the one who attacked the school last year." I said as I leaned forward.

"Oh yeah well how can we believe you?" Rainbow Dash asked sarcastically.

"Because I came back from the dead and have exposed Twilight for attempted murder of yours truly." I chuckled.

They were still silent and did not say a word.

"Don't believe me?" I said as I raised my eyebrow.

"Not entirely darling." Rarity slowly replied.

"Fine then." I said as I stood up and walked in front of them. "If I can't convince all of you then one will have to do."

They all looked nervous as I towered above them.

"So... Fluttershy." I said as I crouched down before her and looked her eye to eye.

"Y-yes?" She responded nervously.

"Why are you choosing her?!" Twilight said angrily.

"Because she was the only one out of the six of you other than Pinkie who still hasn't acted hostile towards me in any way. Besides we have known each other longer than I've known y'all." I snapped back.

"Oh.." She said quietly.

"Flutters please look me in my eyes okay?" I said calmly as she did what I asked as her sniffling grew quieter. I reached out my hand in order to comfort her as she hesitantly put hers in mine. "Do you trust me Fluttershy. You know that I wouldn't do anything that would hurt you guys or anyone at the school, right?" I spoke to her on a one on one level, not paying attention to the others as I looked her in the eyes.

"I trust you.. you always were really nice and kind to everyone when we were younger." Fluttershy said with a small smile on her face.

"Thank you Flutters I appreciate it." I said with relief as I walked back over to my chair. "Now let's get started. I don't know who attacked the school last year, but it was a male and a female who were being controlled." I began.

"Wait how do you know they were being controlled?" Twilight asked.

"Because I know the being that helped someone do it. It's called 'The Angelus' and it is the embodiment of righteousness and light. But, most importantly of all is that it doesn't care about humans at all." I carried on as the others listened.

"So if there is a being of light then does that mean there's a being of darkness?" Rainbow Dash questioned.

"Damn Dash straight to the point I see." I said as I stood up and looked at them all. "Yes there is a being of darkness, chaos, and destruction. It is called 'The Darkness' and my family has been it's host for generations dating all the way back to my ancestor Christian Estacado and it has finally been passed onto me." I explained to them.

"I still don't believe that darling. How do we know you are telling the truth." Rarity complained as the others gulped.

"Fine princess." I said as I lifted my gun in the air and focused on it with all of my attention then in an instant I pictured it completely different and the gun suddenly began melting in my hand and then reformed itself in the design of my choosing. "Is that better?" I asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Y-yes d-d-darling." She replied as the others and herself were pale.

"Thank you. Now when the school was attacked The Darkness inside me noticed the enormous threat and it awakened in me and helped 'guide' me when I fought against the attackers. I still don't remember how I lost my memory either, but the one thing that I do know is that Pinkie is innocent. She did not kill those people." I said as I cupped my hands around my mouth.

"What do ya mean she ain't guilty?" Applejack questioned.

"She was found with the blood of the students who were already dead on her body so the officials automatically thought she did it." I said with a sigh.

"And how do you know that?" Twilight asked.

"Because I was the one to find her before the authorities and when I did she was trying to perform CPR on one of the students. She had already snapped when I got there so I did the only logical thing I could think of. I knocked her out and took her out of the school only to have her taken from me the moment I got out." I said as I felt myself get choked up.

"Well... I believe you now that I think about it..." Rainbow Dash stated.

"What do you mean darling?" Rarity asked.

"I see where you're going with this actually Dash. If it was one of the students then the faculty would've warned us in case we saw them, but they only said that strangers had entered the school." Twilight said as she started having everything clear up in her head.

"Bingo." I said as I snapped my fingers. "Even thought it was school it was High School and the teachers would've had a higher probability of telling us who it was if it was a student."

The others then started catching on and understanding the situation.

"Now does anyone have any questions?" I asked as I looked around.

"I still have one. If this being is made out of evil and chaos then why haven't you hurt us?" Twilight asked curiously.

"Well for one he isn't in control I am and second if I wanted to hurt you then I would've done it as soon as you got here. So I'm not entirely evil." I said with a little smirk.

"Well I'm happy you finally told us the truth." Fluttershy said calmly as the others agreed.

"Yeah I'm sorry it took this long. Also don't tell anyone about this conversation or whatever happened. I'm gonna tell everyone who asks where I was that I was spending the weekend at Twilight's so all of us could talk. That would probably be the best answer for those who get curious and it would explain us getting friendlier." I said as I stood up along with the others.

"I'm also sorry...." Twilight said as she lowered her head in shame followed by the others doing the same.

"Come on guys it's okay I understand that not knowing what happened made you all try to pin the blame on someone and that's fine. Also Twilight don't worry about shooting me cuz I probably would've done the same if I were in your shoes. Lets just turn over a new leaf and start this friendship over." I said as I holstered my weapon and patted her on the shoulder.

"If you say so." Twilight said as tears began rolling down her cheeks.

"Oh also I need a plastic bag and some clothes of your brothers. I hate to ask, but can you get those for me while I wash this off my face?" I asked as I motioned towards the wound on my head with my eyebrow raised.

"Yeah I can also there are band-aids in the medicine cabinet." She said as she walked upstairs to get the clothes and as I went to wash my face.

After about ten minutes of face scrubbing and using neosporin I walked out to find the bag waiting for me and the others chatting.

"Alright girls I'm off gotta leave before my sister tracks me down and kills me for real." I said as I started for the door.

"Bye!" They all said in unison.

"Oh also." Twilight said as she walked to catch me before I left. "The next time you visit Pinkie can you tell her we said 'hey'?" She asked hoping I'd say yes.

"Of course I was going to anyway." I said as I waved by and walked out and headed home.

After a long 45 minute walk I finally made it home. I stood in front of the house for a couple minutes then walked inside. I looked around and didn't see anyone, but I did hear the T.V. in the living room on so I decided to quickly drop my things off in my room, making extra sure to leave my gun in a well hid place, and crept into the living room behind the couch. I peered over only too see Vinyl and Octavia passed out at separate ends of the couch with their legs entangled with each other.

Girls this is too easy. I thought to myself as I tried to become as small as possible behind the couch.

"Vinyl..... Octavia....." I whispered causing them to stir a little. So I whispered again calling their names.

"Hel*yawn*lo?" Octavia said as she slowly started opening her eyes as Vinyl grunted.

"WAKE UP!!!!!!" I screamed at them as I jumped up from behind the couch with my teeth barred staring at both of them.

"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!" They both screamed like someone shot them.

"Damn girls you all need to stop being such heavy sleepers." I said as I leaned over a little.

"You sir are an asshole!" Octavia said as she was trying to calm down.

"You two make it so easy though." I said with a smile as I looked over at Vinyl who sat there blushing covering her face. "You okay?" I asked worriedly.

"You....you made me....." She said in a shaky voice.

"What did I do?" I asked as I cocked my head to the side.

"You made me.....pee myself." She said as she stood up only to show a faint yellow stream flowing down her pants leg as she made a mad dash towards the bathroom while Octavia and I giggled.

"Hey be sure to clean up your yellow drop road and the couch 'Tinkle Stain'!" I called out to her.

"SHUT UP!!" She yelled back from the bathroom.

"Tinkle Stain?" Octavia asked.

"Yeah when she was about four or five she would always pee the bed almost every night so dad decided to give her the nickname 'Tinkle Stain' and it stuck ever since." I said with a grin on my face.

Then Vinyl walked back in with a paper towel and cleaned up the mess, threw away the towel and walked right in front of me so fast I thought she was a spirit or something.

"Yes?" I said getting ready for the biggest hit of my life only to be embraced in a death hug.

"I... I was so so worried...." She said as she began sobbing as she buried her face in my chest.

"I know sis I'm sorry. When you calm down I will explain where I was." I said as I hugged her tight and closed my eyes as I began to sniffle. I was worried too. I thought to myself.
