“Hop on.” I said to Trixie. “We’ll fly towards the hive.”

“H-hop on?” She said uneasily. “You won’t let me fall right?”

“Haha don’t worry Trixie I won’t.” I said laughing. “And even if I do, Rainbow will catch you, right?”

Rainbow shrugged and smirked. “Maybe.”

“Ehm thanks for the offer but I can go on hoof he-he.” She said and nervously laughed while backing away.

“Don’t worry Trixie.” Sunset said. “I will teleport you there, ok?” Trixie nodded eagerly and went next to Sunset.

“You could have teleported?” I asked. “Why you didn’t?”

“Well, it isn't every day that you carry me princess style.” She said blushing and giggling a little, Rainbow was faking a gag while Pinkie was sparkling… somehow.

“I will carry you princess style every day if you want.” I said kissing her. She didn’t back away from the kiss and instead prolonged it until Rainbow coughed in her hand and made us return to reality.

“Sorry to interrupt, but can we go?” She asked.

“Yes sorry, sweetie he-he.” Sunset said and charged her horn, then we all returned to our home in the garden.

“Why are we at home Sunset? We need to go to the hive.” I said.

“The hive is too crowded and I fear I might pop us in someone else.” She explained.

“Oh ok then, hop on Trixie, seems like you will still fly with me.” I said chuckling.

“Oh dangit.” She murmured but climbed on my back regardless.

“All right, brace yourself we are going to take off. The emergency exits are there, there, there and everywhere, please don’t use them.” I said very rapidly.

“Wait, what?” Trixie said.

“TOO LATE HERE WE GOOOO” I shouted.

“AAAAAAAAH YOU MANIAC!”

I heard a strange sound from the distance but I didn’t think too much about it, the forest is always filled with strange sounds after all. I instead refocus my attention towards Woodman who was now explaining to me how to understand animal language.

“You see little one, an animal is far more fragile than a person, a person can lie, a person can endure physical and emotional pain, and if in pain they can tell you about it. Animals, on the other hand, can’t, it’s up to you to understand their sufferance, you’ll have to see not only with your eyes but with your heart too.” He explained, then he opened his hands and I saw a cute little bunny in them.

“This is Angel. He was abandoned by his family and now he’s alone.” He handed him to me, the bunny looked at me a little uneasy. “I want you to take care of him, befriend him and when you have done that, we will start training you with plant communication.” He said, placing the bunny in my hands and then disappeared inside of a tree.

“So, ehm how are you?” I asked as softly as I could. Angel just huffed and jumped down from my hands, starting to run away. “No wait, please.” I said. “Oh my… please come back I can’t let you go into the forest alone.” I said following him.

Angel huffed again and made an angry go away motion, then he started to hop off again. I continued to follow him until he stopped by a river, he was watching the other side.

“Do you- do you want to pass the river?” I asked unsurely. He nodded and motioned for me to pick him up. “Oh, very well then Angel bunny.” I said happily. I picked him up and dashed across the river landing on the other side, all of that in a second.

Angel was trembling and was using his little paws to stay attached to me for dear life.
“I’m sorry I startled you, Angel.” I said picking him in my arms and hugging him softly.
“I shouldn’t have done it so fast and abruptly. I’m sorry.” I said apologetically

After a minute Angel calmed down and shot me an angry glare, I was so sad I could have cried. Angel hopped off of my arms and went away, I just sat down and wailed in my sadness.

‘It’s my fault, I startled him and now he fears me. I will never befriend him, I failed Woodman and daddy.’ I thought sadly.

Suddenly the ground shook and I heard a loud roar in the direction of where Angel hopped off, I stood up immediately and ran toward the sound fearing the worst. I arrived in time to see a chimera standing on top of a terrified Angel.

“Hey, you.” I said. “I know that this is the cycle of nature, but please refrain from eating that bunny.” I said firmly, the chimera just looked at me, then it chuckled and spoke.

“You are funny, little pony.” Said the goat head.

“Do you really think we were doing it for hunger?” The lion head said.

“We just want to kill it for the thrill of the hunt.” Said the snake head.

‘ They are the mysterious animal that is terrifying the changelings? So they weren’t just telling stories. Thorax and Therax were right at the party.’

“How dare you?”

“What?” They said in unison.

“How dare you?!” I shouted. “How dare you kill innocents just for the thrill of the hunt? Don’t you have any respect for Nature?” I said growing angrier, my eyes were now completely red.

“Nature is a cruel mistress, only the strongest survive.” Said the goat head.

“And we will do whatever we want.” Said the snake head, plunging forward to bite Angel. I reacted quickly and grabbed it’s head with my hand, traveling ten meters in a fraction of a second leaving a deep trail in my passage.

“Last warning leave him alone.” I said coldly.

“You can’t control us bitch! We are the strongest!” The chimera said, the lion head tried to bite me but I dodged it easily, I still had the snake head in my hand so I pulled it and ripped its head off, almost showering myself in blood, my shirt was filled with blood and my pants too. I absorbed the blood on them and shot the chimera a wicked grin.

“You shouldn’t have done that.” I said and created my sickle, plunging it deep into the lion head, leaving only the goat head in agony but alive. “You like to hunt for fun?” I said raising my sickle.

“Then I will enjoy this.”

I plunged my blade into its final head and killed it, I then devoured its body and took its memories, they killed a lot of different innocents, from animals to changelings and ponies. Only just for fun.

I turned around and looked at Angel.

“You are safe now Angel, sorry for earlier and sorry for this. You shouldn’t have seen that side of me.” I said.

“That was fucking terrifying and cool at the same time,” said Angel.

“Eeeeeeeh I can understand you?!” I squeaked.

“You can?” He asked.

“Yes I can, oh I’m so happy, now we can be friends much faster.” I said.

“You are incredible.” He said shaking his head.

“What do you mean?” I asked confused.

“Nothing, nothing. So shall we go away from here?” Angel asked.

“Oh, of course, come on.” I said and we headed off towards home.

Regina was talking to me about the in and outs of stealth and on how to do ambushes when we heard a strange sound from home.

“What was that?” I asked.

“Dunno, it doesn’t matter, darling. Now have you grasped everything I told you up until now?” Regina asked, I nodded and she continued. “Then we will start a little game. Hide and I will try to find you.” She said and I took off immediately.

I ran into the forest before camouflaging myself against a tree, Regina showed up in a matter of seconds after me and started to look around her, seeing a giant black insect-like creature roaming the woods and then locking her eyes on you can be pretty scary. I won’t say I screamed because that totally didn’t happen but I blew up my cover anyway.

Regina walked towards me and booped me with one of her claws on the forehead.
“What did you do wrong?” She asked.

“I exposed myself when you startled me?” I answered puzzled.

She shook her head and replied. “No, darling. Your error was that you indeed were hiding well, but you didn’t hide your magic. Every guard of Celestia is trained to detect foreign magic in the air, you need to learn how to hide it, I’ll show you.” She said, I blinked and she was gone.

“W-what? H-how she did that?” I looked around trying to scout her but I only saw trees in every direction. I started to walk aimlessly but suddenly an icy feeling overcame me and my instinct told me to duck. I did so and one of Regina’s tendrils passed above me missing me by a millimeter.

I immediately turned invisible and hid in the foliage, I waited for Regina to do her move. When I saw her jump off a tree and land on the ground I triggered my trap, I used my whipfist and coiled it around her pinning her down.
“Yes! I did it, see Regina? I’m not so bad, darling.” I said smirking proudly.

“Indeed you are good.” A voice said behind me, then a pair of strong claws and tendrils coiled around me and pinned me down.

“But seems like I’m better. Darling.” Regina said.

“How did you do that? Dad said you couldn’t teleport.” I sid.

“Yes, I can’t teleport but you see, when Master becomes stronger we too become stronger.” Regina explained. “I gained the ability to create clones of myself, they can only do simple tasks and they are extremely fragile but excellent as bait.”

“You got me.” I conceded. “Can you free me now? You are ruining my dress!” I said.

Regina giggled and uncoiled me.”As you wish, Princess.” She said mockingly. I just huffed and she laughed some more. “Now let’s continue our training shall we?”

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ APPLEJACK POV~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

I was breaking some boulders that Viribus was throwing at me with my fists when I heard a sound from the house. My curiosity though cost me a boulder on the head.

Viribus made a confused grunt then a stern one.

“Yeah, yeah I know. Don’t get distracted right?” I asked him. Thankfully Woodman passed by early and told me what Viribus wanted from me, then he lent him a little plant of his own invention that translate thoughts into words. It needs some adjustments though, sometimes it wouldn’t work.

“Yes, Applejack.” Said Viribus with a monotone voice.

“We will do this for all the duration of the training?” I asked him annoyed, I wanted to learn how to fight, not how to smash boulders.

“If you want, we can do a sparring session.” He said with no emotion at all.

“Really!?” I asked enthusiast.

“No.” He replied.

“Dangit.” Viribus took another boulder and throw it at me, I grabbed the boulder and used it’s momentum to rotate myself and throw it back at him. He didn’t expect that and was hit right in the face.

“Good move.” He ‘praised’.
He was ready to throw another boulder when we heard a loud roar nearby. I jumped in the air and surpassed the roof of the forest, I searched in all directions and finally saw what was causing the loud noise.

A dragon.

It was a mighty beast, at least twenty meters tall and covered in red fiery scales, on its long pointed muzzle was a line of segmented horns that traversed the middle of his muzzle slowly growing in length the more they traversed its body. Its wings were leathery and with some holes in them, but that wasn’t even bothering it.

“AATHURNAS! SHOW YOURSELF, COWARD!” It shouted with an impressive voice.

In the meantime I was again on the ground, Viribus looked at me puzzled so I explained to him what I saw.

“I won’t allow you to fight it.” He said.

“Why not?” I responded. “It’s a wonderful training!”

“It’s too dangerous.” Viribus replied.

“Then come with me! If something goes wrong then you will be there to take care of it!” I said angrily. “I will fight it, with or without you!” I finally shouted.

“Stubborn as a mule are you?” He said and continued. “Very well then, let’s go.”

We ran off in the direction of the dragon.

“I’ll put you down and I’ll show dad how strong I am”

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ TWILIGHT POV~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

“Did you hear that?” I asked Ferdinand.

“Yes, princess. Though I don’t know what is causing such a sound.” Ferdinand replied again, in his deep voice.

“I’m gonna give a rapid look around.” I said, I created a platform made out of pure magic and took off in the air. Then I saw a giant red dragon, it was raging around the forest destroying trees and launching giant chunks of dirt everywhere. I teleported down and reported to Ferdinand.

“A dragon is here, rampaging through the forest.” I said. “Can you teleport us to Aathurnas? Maybe he knows it?” I asked.

“Of course, princess.” He replied, in an instant, the world shifted and we reappeared in Aathurnas’s cave.

“Aathurnas!” I called.

The giant body of Aathurnas exited one of the giant piles of gold, he moved his face and glared at me.

“What do you want?” He asked annoyed.

“There is a dragon here. A red one big and with tons of spikes on its body. Do you know it?” I asked.

“YOU CAME HERE TO DISTURB MY SLEEP, AND YOU ONLY WANTED TO KNOW A DRAGON?!” He asked angrily, growing bigger.

Ferdinand walked towards him and grabbed his chin with a hand, then he slammed his face into the ground creating a giant web in the ground.
“I assure you that it's far smart to answer the princess’s question. We don’t want to call the emperor, do we?” He asked in a threatening tone.

Aathurnas made a low growl but shrank down nonetheless.

I projected an image of the dragon that I saw and showed it to Aathurnas. “Do you know it?” I asked.

“Yes, he is Pharas. A dragon from the Dragon’s land in the north. He is still angry at me because I stole some of his wealth after defeating him.” He chuckled.

“Thank you for your help.” I said. “Ferdinand let’s go. We have to talk with him.”

“Yes princess.” He replied and we teleported away.

We reappeared near the rampaging dragon, he was now breathing fire everywhere burning down the forest.

“Pharas! Stop it!” I shouted.

“WHO ARE YOU MORTAL? HOW DARE YOU ORDER ME SOMETHING? I WILL KILL YOU FOR THIS!” He shouted and immediately breathed fire at me, I used a barrier to defend myself and waited for him to stop.

“Ferdinand. You stay back, I will pound some sense into this lizard alone.” I said, now pissed at the dragon.

“As you wish, princess.” He said and vanished away.

The fire stopped and I lowered my barrier.

“ARE YOU STILL ALIVE? HOW DARE YO-” He was abruptly stopped by Applejack who fell from the sky and punched him into the ground with an enormous shockwave, then the dust was blown away by the wind and I finally saw Applejack on top of the dragon.

“Howdy Twili! Ya here too to beat this dragon?” She asked nonchalantly.

“Yes, yes I am. And I will probably study him after.” I said eager to finally have a normal dragon to study.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ THIRD PERSON POV~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Paharas started to rise again, now angered by the blow. Applejack leaped down from his muzzle and joined Twilight on the ground. They looked at each other before nodding, Twilight thought of a strategy and shared it with Applejack via hive mind.

“I WILL KILL YOU ALL!” Phalas shouted he used his claws to try and kill Applejack and Twilight who were now running around him, both of them were avoiding his claws and this was angering him more and more.

Applejack stopped suddenly and waited for him to strike, when the claw reached her she grabbed it. She skidded a bit from the blow but managed to stop it. Then she used her biomass to enhance her strength when the second blow arrived she used her other hand and grabbed that one too.

Meanwhile Twilight gathered her magic, after a quick build up she raised her hand over her head and unleashed a gigantic amount of magic in the form of a laser that hit the dragon’s back. The dragon was thrown forward by the amount of force, then Applejack let go of its claws and let it fly over her.

Applejack then ran towards Twilight who was now preparing a new spell, when Applejack approached her she used a kinetic push to propel her into the air. Applejack, now in the air fired some biomass from her back and propelled herself towards the ground at breakneck speed. When she made contact with the dragon's belly a tremendous shockwave traversed the forest, then the dragon shouted in pain and spit out blood.

“Applejack!” Twilight shouted. “Restrict him!”

“Will do!” Applejack then used her biomass to block the Pharas’s arms while twilight blocked his legs.

“Will you listen to me now?” Twilight asked.

The dragon said nothing and continued to stare at her, his bright green draconic eyes fixed on her. “Why are you here?” Twilight inquired.

“I’m here to get my hoard back.” Pharas replied.

“And the best way to do that was to destroy the forest?” Applejack said.

“I needed to drive Aathurnas out of his hideout.” Said Pharas. “So come on, get over with it.”

“What are you talking about?” Twilight asked.

“You bested me in combat, you will kill me now right?” He said, firmly.

“No, we won’t.” Said Applejack. “You are free to go.”

“What?!” “What!?” Said Twilight and Pharas.

“Wait a little moment will you?” Said Twilight and dragged Applejack behind a tree.
“What are you doing?” Twilight asked in the hive mind.

“What do you mean? He’s not a threat. We will let him go.” Applejack replied.

“Absolutely no! Think about how much I can learn from him! Think of the possibilities and-” She was interrupted by a slap from her sister. “What…”

“Now hear me Twilight!” Boomed Applejack. “I don’t care if he can be the most incredible discovery for you. I don’t give a fuck! Remember what dad said? What Celestia and those scientists did to him and to Windy? Do you want to become like them? Because that’s what the fuck you are doing right now!” She shouted, flames were exiting from her eyes and smoke was forming on her head.

“I-I-I” Twilight stuttered, then she lowered her head. “I’m sorry. ‘Sob’ I-I’m sorry sis.” She said crying.

Applejack immediately hugged her and held her close. “Shh, shh sugar cube. It’s okay, it’s okay. You didn’t do anything, you saw reason, right.” She said in a soothing tone.

“What-What if I become like them…” She asked shaking.

“You won’t. You won’t sugar cube, me, the girls, mom, and dad are all here for you.” She said reassuringly.

Twilight cried some more for a minute or so before stopping.

“Thank you Applejack. Thank you for stopping me.” She said, slowly.

“Any time sugar cube, now let’s get back and free that poor dragon shall we?” Applejack said. Twilight nodded and they returned to the Pharas.

“So? What’s the sentence?” He asked.

“You are free to go.” Applejack said and removed her restrictions.

“Yes, you can go now.” Said Twilight and removed her restrictions too.

“You defeated me, and still you let me live. Why?” Pharas asked.

“You didn’t do anything wrong, you were just angry. You don’t deserve to die.” Applejack said.

“Then tell me your names, I’m forever honor bound to you now.” He said.

“There is really no need Pharas.” Twilight said.

“Yeah, you don’t need to do this.” Applejack commented.

“I must. You defeated me and spared me. I will be honor bound to you.” He said firmly.

“There’s nothing we can say to make you reconsider?” Twilight asked. Pharas shook his head and the girls sighed.

“I’m Applejack Mercer, daughter of Philip Mercer and Sunset Mercer, princess of the changelings and element of honesty.” Applejack said.

“I’m Twilight Mercer, daughter of Philip Mercer and Sunset mercer, princess of the changelings and element of magic.” Twilight said.

“Applejack Mercer and Twilight Mercer, I will remember your names. Now if you want I’ll return back to my den. Call my name, and I will arrive to offer you assistance. Farewell.” He said and took off into the sky.

“What a day eh?” Said Twilight.

“You can say it, sugar cube.” Replied Applejack. The both of them started to walk back home with the sun that now was going down.

“And what’s up with the ‘sugarcube?’” Asked Twilight.

“Dunno. Really, it just felt right. Like the symbols on our thrones, you felt that too right?” Applejack said.

“Yeah. Strange.”

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ MOONDANCER POV~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

“Doctor.” Said a soldier. “Experiment 0 and 1 are ready for the test.”

“Thank you.” I said and made my way towards the test chamber. I was inside of another G.E.N.E. structure 20 km away from the Red Event. I was finally ready to start experimenting again.

I entered the observation room and I was greeted by all my assistants ready to log the data.
Inside of the test chamber, there were two cages, the left one contained experiment 0 while the right one contained experiment 1.

“Here is doctor Moondancer, you have the clear to start.” I said in the interphone. The soldiers nodded and opened the cages. Experiment 0 was the first to come out, she was a seemingly normal mare, she had a purple coat with a white mane, her eyes though were a crimson red. She exited her cage without a problem and walked up to the center of the test chamber, where she stopped and waited. On the other side, experiment 1 exited his cage too. He was a big black stallion with a blue mane, potent muscles filled his body and his incredible stature helped his overall intimidating factor.

The colossus advanced and looked down to experiment 0.

“What do you want, flea?” He asked arrogantly.

“I want to kill everybody in the world.” Experiment 0 replied with an extremely low voice, so low that our instrument registered it with sheer luck.

“What? I can’t hear you! Speak up!” Experiment 1 said.

“I want to eat your heart.” She replied this time louder.

“Wha-?”

“I want to kill everybody in the world.” Experiment 0 said before pouncing on 1 ripping off his right arm. Then the jets of blood covered the entire window, we heard the pained screams of 1 but we couldn’t do anything, for science.

When the noise toned down and stopped entirely we opened the door and observed the scene, pieces of 1 were everywhere in the room. 0 meanwhile, was in the center on some remains of his body eating his heart. When she finished gulping it down she stopped suddenly and started to cough intensely.

She vomited out blood and the remains of the heart but immediately after her whole body was coated with red and black tendrils.
‘The Red Event…’ I immediately thought, experiment 1 was infected and somehow we didn’t notice? How!?
“RED ALERT, TOTAL SHUTDOWN! WE HAVE ANOTHER RED EVENT!” I shouted with all my force, then I started running towards the exit. Fortunately, I managed to exit before the doors closed, the same thing cannot be said for my assistants though. I heard screams and breaking sound from the inside before a giant hole was created from the wall next to me.

Experiment 0 exited from a cloud of dust and blood. She reached me and looked at me with her eyes, now black and red.

“I will kill him.” She said and ran off, leaving me there confused but alive.

‘I need to warn the princess!’

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ PHILIP POV~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

“So what do you think?” I asked Trixie, I showed her her bedroom inside the palace and we were now exiting the Hive, I used the opportunity and took off my armor.

“It was lovely thank you, your majesty.” She said.

I held a hand up and said. “Please none of that, we are friends now. I helped you and you’ll help us. There is no need to call me majesty. Because if you do then I will call you Archmage Assistant.” I said.
“What?” She asked confused.

“I just thought that, since Twilight will be my head researcher she will also carry the duty of Archmage or at least the title. You are good with magic so I would like to offer you to study under Twilight. So what do you say?” I asked.

“Really!?” She asked with the puppy dog eyes.

“Yep.” I said.

“Yes! Thank you, your majesty, ehm Philip.” She corrected herself noticing my raised brow.

“Very well then. Right now the girls are training with the guardians, but I will have to adventure outside of Equestria. When that happens you will study under Twilight. For now, try to reestablish your magic and train a little ok?” I said.

“Why are you going to travel?” She said.

I waved to some changelings outside, they were all re-entering their houses in order to rest. The city was growing wonderfully, changelings are really awesome builders. “I have to hunt some Astral beings, I already killed the two Ursas but I need to hunt the other twelve beasts.
Arietem, Tauri Emotum, Corona Australis, Cancer, Lio, Virgin, Libra, Scorpius, Sagittarius, Capricornus, Aquarium and Piscis.” I explained.

“Why though?” She inquired.

“I need their strength to kill Celestia.” I answered bluntly.

“Will you go alone?” She asked.

“I wish, but knowing Sunny. She will come with me no matter what.” I responded. “Alright Trixie, I’ll go home now. You can go back to your room, see ya tomorrow.” And said that I took off and headed towards home. But I still heard Trixie say something.

“Alright, ‘Your Majesty’” She said mockingly. I shook my head and smiled.

I landed outside my home and went inside, immediately after me, Applejack and Twilight entered.

“Hi, daddy!” Said Twilight.

“Heya, dad.” Said Applejack.

“So what did you learn today?” I asked curiously.

“Well… we ehr. Twili?” Applejack staggered, I narrowed my eyes.

“Well, we-we. We fought a dragon and won but I was tempted to keep him prisoner as a test subject but Applejack convinced me otherwise please don’t send me away.” Twilight blurted out.

“Wut?” I asked perplexed. They then explained the whole story, slowly this time. I was divided between being proud for winning against a dragon or being mad at them.

“I don’t approve that you faced a dragon so recklessly.” I said sternly. “But I’m also incredibly proud. Good teamwork and good use of magic.” I said with a smile. “Now, give me a hug.” I ordered opening my arms. They jumped into it and I snuggled them for a bit before letting them go.

We were now at the kitchen table talking about the resistance when I remembered something.

Rainbow and Pinkie were still in the garden sparring! I ran outside and saw them fighting, Rainbow was in a bad shape while Pinkie seemed extremely tired they were in front of each other smiling and throwing punches. I walked towards them and blocked their attacks.

“Enough sweeties.” I said. “Go in and rest, you two did great.” They smiled and nodded then they entered home. Fluttershy then exited the forest and approached me.

“Hey, daddy! Look I made a friend!” She said happily showing me a bunny. “Say hello to my dad Angel.”

‘Angel bunny… you better be good with her…’ I thought. Angel made some noise and Fluttershy seemed pretty happy about it.

“He says hi.” Fluttershy said.

“You can understand him?” I asked.

“Yep, after devouring a chimera I can now talk to animals. Isn’t that great?” She said happily.

‘ I will let that chimera comment slide, for now.’ I thought. “Good for you sweetie.” I said ruffling her head, she let out a little giggle at that. “Now head inside and rest.” I said.

Suddenly though I sensed something, something really bad. Someone else became an evolved using the strand I left inside the G.E.N.E. facilities.

‘ That’s not good.’ I thought darkly.

“Something wrong?” Asked Fluttershy.

“No Fluttershy, it’s all good. Go inside I need to talk to Woodman and then I will come too.” I said.

“Ok, daddy!” She shouted and ran inside.

I walked for a bit, then I called Woodman. “Woodman. Come here.”

“What is it, Creator?” He asked.

“Yeah what is it?” Asked Sunset making me jump.

“S-Sunny? How did you know I was here?” I asked.

“Fluttershy told me, she’s not stupid. She noticed that something was wrong, so what is it?” She asked.

“Ok listen, someone inside Canterlot became an evolved. I don’t know how and I’m really worried, these powers are incredibly dangerous. Woodman, I want you to increase security around the forest.” I said looking at him. He nodded and entered a tree.

“So what now?” Sunset asked.

“Now we wait for their moves. There is nothing now that we can do.”
