???, P.o.v- Thomas

"Th... Thomas!" A strain voice cried out, my movements did not falter, nor did I care who was calling out for me. "Its... its over, please stop!" The voice strained again, I couldnt hear them that well this time, but I couldn't have cared less about what they wanted.

"Be quiet... if you dont want to die like her then I suggest you keep your mouth shut" I growled, gripping my sword with enough strain to break skin. "She hurt everyone... SHE DESERVES THIS!!!"

"D-Dude... you gotta stop, you're not yourself right now!" Another voice said, though this one shouted and sounded so familiar.

"I have to make sure, she doesn't hurt us ever again... an arm or a leg would do just fine" I said, feeling myself grin at the comment.

"Snap out of it man, this isn't you, come back to us!" Another familiar voice shouted, I felt a sharp pain shoot through my head hearing it.

"THOMAS!" I heard many voices shout, I could hear them as plain as day, thats when it finally clicked.

"My friends... those are my friends... Jay! Jackson!... Girls!" I called out, I was suddenly turned around by someone, I was expecting it to be one of my friends, but I only saw a full length mirror showing me what I've become. Two black horns curled on the sides of my head and two protruding out of my forehead curling straight up a few inches with the tips looking like sharpened daggers, my upper body was completely shrouded in darkness like when I fought Discord, my eyes were the same crimson red as before and my teeth all sharpened to a point. I was a monster.

"No..... NO!" I screamed, smashing that damn mirror. I gave a shakey breath once I calmed down from my rage and I slowly pulled my fist back, letting the glass fall from the mirror and I fell to my knees. Tears rolling down my face. "I don't wanna be a monster... I don't... somebody, please... please help me"

6:30 a.m., Canterlot Train Station

"Whoa... what's gotten into you Thomas?" I heard Twilight ask, I opened my eyes and quickly took noticed that I was clinging to the woman for dear life with tears flowling out of my eyes. "Did what I say last night get to you? B-Because Im still extremely sorry about that, it was rude and arrogant of me to be scared an angry at you over a stupid dream I had... Im sorry" Twilight apologized for the fifth time since she told me about her dream. Though that nightmare is something that's haunted me since I've woken up, I was sure talking with Rainbow helped, but I guess I still need some help with this.

"It's okay Twilight, this is related to... something else" I assured her before letting her go, it looked like we made it to the station at dawn like how Applejack said we would. It also looked like it was just me and Twilight in the train right now. "Where are the others?" I asked, now grabbing my things then made my way off the train with Twilight.

"The girls already started heading to the castle when we arrived, I decided to hang back and wake you up" so you dont end up in appleloosa" Twilight joked. "You actually just missed it, when we entered the city we had to go through a magical barrier" she said, still in amazement.

"Wait, why would Canterlot need a magical barrier over their city?" I asked just as we got off the train, now making our way towards the castle. "Seem's kinda strange dont you think?"

"A little bit, maybe we can ask the princess's about this when we get to the castle after I beat my brother to a bloody paste" Twilight said, in a terrifyingly calm manner, though I still found it oddly attractive. "Now c'mon, I'm sure the others already halfway there!" Twilight exclaimed, grabbing my hand and was now rushing us to our destination.

We got many look's from other people walking and heading to get breakfast in the opposite direction, but it didn't matter to Twilight since she was currently bloodthirsty at the moment. We soon slowed down when Twilights body finally realized it wasn't athletic and now she held onto me to keep herself from collapsing.

"I... forgot... I wasn't great, ugh, at track" Twilight said with batted breath, I snickered at this which elicited a very weak punch from the girl. "Shut... up"

"I didn't say anything" I said innocently, although it took everything I had just to keep a straight face. "Think you'll be able to make it?" I asked, though it seemed she was to put of breath to answer.

Seeing her like this, I felt like I had to do something to help her. I had an idea, but Im pretty sure she's gonna hate me for it. I stopped us both after a bit and looked around, this confused Twilight a bit.

"Whats... wrong?" She asked with shallow breaths, she 'eep'd' when I lifted her up in a bridal hold and started walking with her in my arms. "Put me... down you... asshole" Twilight weakly yelled at me, planting delicate punches on my face. None of them hurt, but I acted like they did so it wouldn't hurt her ego.

"C'mon Twilight, another second walking and Im sure you would've collapsed" I told the girl who glared at me. "Glare all you want, but Im not letting my friend get hurt because she was too impatient to kill her brother" I said, a but more sternly then normal. And true to my thoughts, she glared at me with eyes that felt like daggers. I sighed feeling her glare, but continued on towards the castle.

We weren't far from the castle by any means, just a quick twenty minute walk. The weather was great today, sunny skies, no clouds, and the wind blew past us keeping us refreshed. It was also nice and quiet since everyone was barely waking up, so you can hear the birds fly and chirp on by as you walk. It was so peaceful.

"I got a good feeling about today" I said with a smile, I was expecting a response from Twilight until I noticed the feeling of her glare was gone. I looked down to see what's up and I swear my heart skipped a beat when I saw her sleeping soundly in my arms. "Guess it really was peaceful out here" I said quietly to myself.

"Look sweetie, that's what me and your father were like when we first started dating" I heared a woman say, I looked around and spotted the woman talking to her daughter a little ways behind us. "Oh, sorry, didn't mean to bother you young man" the woman apologized. She had light purple skin with lavender colored that complimented her navy blue eyes, she wore a black shortsleeve shirt along with blue jeans and dark purple sneakers. "Say, you wouldn't happen to know a gray dragon boy would you, about a few inches shorter than you, red hair?" She asked catching me a little of guard.

"U-Uh, yeah that's my buddy Jay" I said getting pleased look from the woman. "H-How do you know him?"

"Well he was actually the one that helped us, and a lot more people out the city, when Discord was running loose, although he looked pretty beat up when my daughter found him" She said, quickly looking down to the little girl, she was a magic-user with very light orange skin, kinda matched Applejacks, short yellow hair, navy blue eyes and was wearing a bright green shirt, a yellow skirt and white shoes. "Oh yeah, that reminds me, my name's Lavender Grow, an earth-user, and this little darling here is Marigold Grow, a magic-user, say hi to the nice man sweetie"

"H... Hello" Mari said shyly with a tiny wave, I think she was cuter than the sleeping girl Im holding right now. "Do you think we can see mister Jay again?" She asked me.

"I-Im not really sure Mari" I said getting a disappointed look from her that hurt my heart. "But how about I let y'all tag along with me to the castle and see if I can get him to come see y'all" I offered them.

"Are you sure, we wouldn't want to bother you or him if you two are busy since I heard their was a wedding happening tomorrow" Lavender said.

"Im sure Jay isn't busy right now since the wedding is tomorrow, and Im positive everyone would love to meet this lil cutie" I said getting an excited look from Mari, like if I told her she won the lottery.

"Can we mom, pleeeease!" Mari begged her mother, with a defeated sigh Lavender agreed and we resumed walking to the castle.

"So what's your name?" Lavender asked.

"My names Thomas Knight, but you can call me Thomas or Tommy" I said getting a small laugh from Lavender.

"That's a very strange name you got there Thomas, but I like it" Lavender said making me blush a little. "So whose your girlfriend?" She asked making me confused at first only to soon remember about the girl in my arms.

"S-She's not my girlfriend, her name is Twilight Sparkle and she's just my friend" I explained to Lavender, but I saw a familiar look Applejack would get when she would tease me.

"Are you sure she's just a friend, you know, not just any girl would willing let a man carry them like this, she must really be infatuated with you" Lavender said grinning a bit. "Maybe she likes that cute face of your's, I know I do, or maybe she likes the way you feel since she's all cozied up in your arms Thomas. She probably loves how kind and gentle you are, all these are good attributes in a boyfriend... or a soon to be husband" She went on, making my face as red as a tomato.

"You know it's not nice to tease people Mom" Mari scolded causing her mom to puff her cheeks.

"But Mari~ it's so much fun teasing this one, he's so cute and easy to tease" Lavender whined a bit, but stopped nevertheless. "Fine, sorry for teasing you Thomas"

"It's fine Lavender, my friend Applejack love's to tease me all the time so Im pretty much use to it" I said, but still accepted her apology anyways. "Sorry if this sound weird, but where's Mari's dad?" I asked immediately getting them both to frown at the question. "Oh... I see, I'm sorry for your loss"

"Thank you" Was all Lavender said before a thick silence hung over us. I had no idea what to say, I only experienced death once in my life and that was when I was barely five. I have to think of something to help ease this tension away.

"Wait... Stop!" We all heard from across the street, we looked to see a man with blue skin, yellow hair and green eyes wearing a white hoodie, green pants and black shoes pushing a girl into an alley nearby.

"Lavender, do you think you can hold Twilight for a moment?" I asked the woman, she looked back to me and I could sense her shaking when she saw the cold look I was giving.

"U-Uh, you want me to take her to the castle?" Lavender asked as I handed her Twilight, she looked surprised when she realized how light she was.

"Yeah... don't wait up" I told her before heading towards the alley, I could hear the faint voices from the entrance then a loud smack. I walked into the dark alleyway and used the sound of the voices to help me navigate towards them.

"Get the hell off me you creep!" I heard the girl yell, there was a small ruckus before I heard another slap then something ripping.

"Shut that mouth of yours little birdy, matter'o fact, let me shut it for you" The man said with each word telling me his intent.

"Hey, Im pretty sure the lady said to let her go" I said calmly, the man looked at me with a punk out glare as well as trying to make himself look bigger. "So let her go"

"Or what shrimp, you think a scrawny little punk like you can take me?" He queried, turning his full attention to me. "Let me tell how this is gonna go down, you are gonna turn around and forget you ever saw me or this bitch you understand?" He asked now walking towards me.

"I can handle this man, get outta here!" The girl yelled, I looked behind the man and saw a woman with broze colored skin matching her yellow eyes and had short white hair with purple dye on the tips, she wore what use to be a white longsleeve shirt, some faded black cargo pants and worn out black boots. Thought what really stood out was the bruise on her face and her exposed chest from her ripped up shirt.

"What's your name?" I asked the woman taking her aback a bit.

"... Gilda" She said.

"Well Gilda, you look a little out of it so I can only assume he either drugged you or hit you in the back of the head so if it's all the same to you-" I stopped once the man was infront of me. "Let me handle this"

"Last chance, leave and live to see another day" He said, pulling out a pair of worn down brass knuckles. "Or I break you skull" he threatened, if I was back home I would be terrified right about now, but for some reason... I was extremely calm.

"Did you use those to hurt Gilda over there?" I asked him eliciting an ugly glare. "I'll take that as a yes... you know, where Im from-" I stopped just as I rammed my fist in his gut, to fast for the both of them to see. "We kick the shit outta scum like you for even touching women without permission" I continued, letting the pain settle into his body before slowly pulling my fist back.

The man loosened his grip on the brass knuckles after a few second, he looked confused at first only to soon collapse to his knees while holding his stomach. I must've hit him really hard cause it looked like he couldn't scream out in pain, only give out silent grunts. I reached down and pulled his head up by hair to make him look at me.

"Disgusting" I muttered, glarring at him with my cold red eyes. Before he could give out a cry for help I slammed his face to the wall with enough force to knock him out cold. "Freakin hate garbage like this, you alright?" I asked, turning my attention back to Gilda who looked to be in shock.

"H... H-How did you do that?" Gilda asked me just as I get near her.

"I've fought literal deities, a common asshole isn't even close to being on the same plane as me" I answered, quickly offering a hand right after. "How'd you end up in this mess anyhow?" I asked, helping her up.

"Was on my way to the station when this asshole came up to try an get another girl on his belt, I refused, he got pissed, punched me in the back of the head and started leading me here... Im sure by how I look you can guess the rest" Gilda explained to me before gesturing to her exposed chest, catching me by surprise.

"Whoa! U-Uhm... can you please cover yourself?" I asked while emitting an embarrassing blush and looking away.

"Are... you blushing?" She asked, her impressed gaze now lost in the wind. "Let me get this straight, you came here and beat a random person up, for good reasons, looking all badass until you see a little nudity!" Gilda exclaimed making me blush even more. "And another thing, how can a weak looking guy like you knock a guy out that easily in such a short amount of time, what are you, wh-who are you!?" Gilda demanded finally feeling the anger rise up inside her, but that anger went away when I offered her an undershirt and shirt from my bag. "... *sigh* Sorry 'bout that, I have an unpleasant tendency to let my anger get the best of me"

"I-it's alright Gilda, I don't blame you for getting angry, especially since you almost got... raped" I said, cringing at the words. "I know a guy who deals with anger issues too... might wanna put that on, dont want others to ogle at your bare chest" I said and she looked at me for a second then chuckled.

"You're a weird guy" Gilda said as she put on the stuff I gave her. "You got a name dweeb?" She asked me.

"My names Thomas Knight, but you can call me Thomas or Tommy" I introduced myself, Gilda looked me up and down before grabbing my hand. "Hey what are you-"

"I'm starving and Im sure you haven't eaten anything either so let me treat you to some breakfast as a way of saying thanks for saving me" Gilda said now dragging me out the alley and back into the sun. The area itself was still fairly clear save for a few early birds, but I didn't have time to look because Gilda was already leading me to our destination. "I know this great place just up the road, Im sure you probably heard of Sally and Barb's all day an night diner" Gilda told me and I dont think I could forget that place.

I stayed silent during our walk to Sally and Barb's, though I did notice wings on Gilda's back that were different from other air-user's and the dragon race.

"Hey Gilda, are you an air-user?" I asked the girl, she snorted a bit at my question before laughing.

"Sorta, I'm from the Griffin race" Gilda corrected. "It's a common mistake since we both have feathered wings, though key features on our race is the sharp black nails and amber gold eyes" She said showing me her black fingers nails and her golden eye color.

"Whoa, guess I shouldn't be so surprised since two of my friend's are literally from the Dragon race and one control's literal lightening" I said under my breath, I was honestly fascinated with her lineage. "So Gilda, why were you heading to the station before that mess happened?" I asked, though I realized it must've been a private matter so I might've made her upset.

"Well... I was going to the station so I can travel to ponyville to both get my ass kicked and apologize to my friend for breaking her trust... and quite possibly her heart" Gilda said, slowing down to a stop. That friend sounded awfully familiar, but I shouldn't assume anything right now.

"What happened?" I asked her, but she was silent. Now that I got a look at her, it looked like she hadn't slept in day's, the bruise on her cheek wasn't doing anything to help either. "I understand if that's to personal to share since we've just met a few minutes ago" I told her, trying to get rid of the silence.

"She was my best friend in the whole world... and I let my anger an jealousy get the best of me, I'm so stupid" Gilda said suddenly, breaking down into tears in the matter of seconds. It was so sudden I hadn't realized she was clinging to me while crying, I blinked a couple times before hugging Gilda back and tried to help her calm down. "She trusted me, she saw me as a sister and I threw that all away because I couldn't control my emotions... I've spent every day regretting my actions, wishing I could make it right but nothing could mend that broken trust anymore" Gilda sobbed out, it didn't take a genius to realize Gilda was talking about Rainbow Dash since I heard about it just yesterday, but I think letting her get it out would help rather than saying I knew her old friend.

"Gilda, let's sit down and let you collect yourself for a minute" I suggested, gesturing to a wooden bench a few feet from us. I led Gilda over to the bench and sat her down before I joined, it was strange talking to Rainbows old friend, but no matter the history between them I couldn't just stand by and let her suffer. "Tell what happened Gilda, I'll listen for as long as you need me too" I told her, Gilda slowly collected herself with a few breathing exercises before staring at her hands.

"I was visiting my old friend at her new hometown thought I'd pop in an surprise her, we always did that in cloudesdale when we were kids so I wanted my visit to be nostalgic. When I arrived I was immediately greeted by a pink ball of energy which both scared and annoyed me, I told her to leave me alone and I walked off toward's Dash's house, heard she had someone living with her as well so I wanted ta give him a little scare just incase he tries anything" Gilda started getting a chuckle from me, before she continued. "Got to her house, we hugged and decided to hang out for the day and thats what we did... but the pink girl kept popping up everywhere and my short fuse lit after about an hour of her following around, I know I shouldn't have snapped but after me an dash were done hanging out this air-user with pink hair ran into me on accident and... I... blew up in her face making the poor girl cry, I-I never felt so bad in my entire life before, it hurt my heart seeing what I did. I was gonna go and find her to apologize, but that earth-user showed up again to invite me to a party later that day to welcome me or something, I asked if a pink haired air-user would be there and she nodded so I accepted"

"I see... I'm guessing it didn't pan out the way you expected it to huh?" I asked, already knowing what happened. Gilda nodded, but still continued with her story.

"I finally cooled down after an hour of walking around ponyville and I started heading to a place called Sugarcube Corner, when I got there I looked around for the girl so I can apologize only to get bombarded with questions, it was around fifteen questions is were I started getting irritated but I answered all their questions on where I was from, what my name is, how my life is going, my career, so on so forth. It was a little after an hour did I see that girl again, I began walking towards her to say my apology when that DAM-... *sigh* when that pink girl came up to talk with me, all while these pranks were happening every step of the way until my fuse was finally lit once again and... I snapped" Gilda stopped, her eyes now full of regret. "It's funny you know, because, I-I thought the pranks were from that crazy pink party girl but it was actually Rainbow dash heh, so there I am screamin my head off at someone who didn't deserve it... again... *sniff* y-you know I tell myself everyday, e-even before I came to ponyville I said, 'You gotta work on your anger Gilda, or else you'll lose everything you hold dear'... boy was I right"

"I can guess you and Rainbow had a fight that ended with you saying things you didn't mean and her telling you to never come back... am I right?" I asked to which she nodded. "So you going to ponyville to apologize is your way of trying to find redemption so you can right a wrong, correct?"

"Thats the plan... I would do anything if it meant I could make thing's right" Gilda told me, her voice both filled with sadness and determination. I chuckled a bit before getting up from the bench.

"If thats the case, then all you have to do is take my hand"

"Heh... wa-wait, so you're telling me that in order to get my friend back and apologize for all I've done, I just need to take your hand?" Gilda said, drawing out the possible outcome. "I-I don't know if this is some cheap pick up line o-or what, but it's not funny Thomas, I just poured my heart out to you and you act like it'll all go away if I take your hand..... it cant be that easy... can it?" Gilda asked almost hesitantly, I just kept my hand out for her so I can help her het back on track.

"Sometimes, it is just that easy" I said, letting my words sink into the girl's mind. Now that I know both sides of the story, I can try and mend the friendship back together if I can get these two to sit down and talk. They both have suffered enough, if it means getting these two to become friend's again and be happy, I can handle a screaming session from Rainbow. "Im sure you both suffered enough Gilda" I said getting a look of realization on her face.

"You're the guy" Gilda said her expression turning to surprise, I chuckled.

"Yeah... I'm the guy" I admitted. "I heard both of your stories and I can honestly say that you both are hurting more than you think, if you want to mend the trust back together and have Rainbow be your friend again then all you have to do is take my hand" I told her, giving Gilda a chance to get her friend. It was quiet between us, all that was heard was the sounds of the wind and the clicking of peoples shoes, I started to think Gilda wasn't gonna take my hand a one point but that doubt was quickly flung away when she pulled me into a hug.

"Please... I just want my friend back Thomas" Gilda cried as she cling to me even more, I chuckled and smiled when I hugged her back.

"Let's go help you get your friend back"

Canterlot castle's front gate

"Now I know you hate her Rainbow, but do I really have to pin you down in order to get you to talk like a civilized person?" I asked the pinned woman, she answered me by thrashing around even more. The second me and Gilda came into view with the other's at the gate, Rainbow tried to literally put Gilda through a wall, luckily I was quick to react and pinned the crazed speedster on the floor. "Gonna make hold you here till ya calm down?"

"You can kiss my ass!" Rainbow retorted, continuing her thrashing. "I told you about her Thomas, and you got all buddy buddy with her after everything she's done!?" Rainbow shouted at me, each word dripping with hatred and venom.

"Well she was about to be... *ahem* violated, so I saved her and we started talking. Rainbow I need you to listen to her side of the story okay, you both are hurting and you both need to talk this out now" I stated, a bit more sternly much to their surprise. "I'm gonna let you go, and if you try to hit her I will never speak with you again, you understand me?" I asked, she growled for a moment then groaned.

"Fine, your lucky he's on your side G" Rainbow told Gilda rather harshly before I got off and helped her up.

"I'll give you two a minute" I said giving Rainbow one last look and walked over to the group. "So how yall doing?" I asked, quickly getting slapped by Twilight. "I deserve that"

"Damn right you do, you gave me away to someone I don't even know who could've kidnapped and killed me!" Twilight yelled at me. "No offense by the way" she calmly said to Lavender who waved it off, quietly stepping back with the others.

"And I'm sorry about that Twilight but what was I supposed to do, leave you out in the open for some random guy to have his way with you" I said, her glare not falter but neither was mine. "I had no choice-"

"You always have a choice, you just chose the wrong one dick head!" Twilight growled, understandably she was angry since I only met Lavender and Mari about twenty minutes ago, but like hell I'm backing down from this. "You know what, maybe you should just stay outta my way for this trip, I can finally get rid of the stupidity you been rubbing off on me and that stench, have you even bathed!?"

"Oh ya really wanna talk about smellin like shiet, let's talk about the time ya smelled like absolutely garbage two day's ago because it was for a damn friendship report you missed for the second time in a row" I remarked, reverting to my Irish accent. "Smelled like two dead fish were done goin at it for six hours ya bitch" I said, the group quietly stepped back even further.

"I swear if you weren't my friend I'd put you in a trunk and throw you in the ocean!" Twilight exclaimed.

"Oh yeah, screamin an hollerin at yer friend is such a good way ta strengthen a friendship" I retorted, our glares interlocked with eachother and I swear there was lightning sparking between us.

"Prick!"

"Cunt"

"Bastard!"

"Bitch"

"You damn hero wanna be!"

"You damn princess wanna be!"

"Is-uh.... is this a normal thing that happens with these two?" Lavender whispered to Applejack.

"Yup, these two could go at it fer hours if we don't intervene" Applejack said quickly noticing Mari heading over to me and Twilight. "Shouldn't y'all stop her?"

"Just watch" Lavender said, getting looking from the others but ultimately let the little girl go. Mari reached us just as Twilight was winding up for another slap until Mari cleared her throat.

"So who more of the adult here, you two or me?" Mari simply asked quickly getting us two look at each and blush in embarrassment remembering all the vulgar things we said infront of Mari. "That's what I thought" she said before walking back to Lavender, the woman herself was laughing at the other four girls look of shock at how fast Mari ending our fighting.

"That was rather... anti-climactic I must say" Rarity thought aloud getting nods from the others.

"*sigh*... I'm sorry for... freaking out on you Thomas" Twilight apologize further shocking the girls.

"Yeah Im sorry for handing you to someone we barely even knew... friends?" I asked, making Twilight giggle.

"Yeah, friends" She said, now jaws were on the floor at this point.

"What kinda powers does that child have?" Applejack asked Lavender who chuckled at their reactions.

"Well when my late husband was around and we'd have arguments, this little darling was able to stop us with a few simple words. I think she has a talent for solving these kinda problems, oh, I wonder if her cutie mark will correlate with that" Lavender told Applejack, though just as me and Twilight stopped fighting we saw Rainbow and Gilda walking back to us, both more calm and relieved.

"Well I gotta say Thomas, when you said it's sometimes that easy... you weren't lying" Gilda said looking like the guilt and shame was completely lifted off her shoulders.

"I just needed you two to talk it out, I know it couldn't have been a pleasent conversation but it was a conversation that needed to happen nonetheless" I said.

"Look G, I just wanna sorry again for not considering your feelings at the time and forgetting about your anger issues" Rainbow apologized.

"Well I did scream at your friends for no reason, and said some things I shouldn't have so I hope we can start over" Gilda said holding out her hand. "Though I'd understand if you feel differently, I don't wanna oppose you or anything"

"You kidding, of course we can start over but there is someone you need to apologize too first" Rainbow said sticking a thumb towards Fluttershy. "Do that and all is forgiven"

"Was planning on it" Gilda said before walking over to the shy girl, who by the way looked terrified. "Look uh... I'm sorry for yelling and taking my anger out on you, it wasn't right for me to blow up like that so... I hope you can forgive my stupid ass, and possibly be friends in the future" Gilda apologized.

"U-Uhm... I-I guess if you felt that bad then... ok" Fluttershy said making Gilda smile then hug the girl a little to tightly. "A-A little to tight!"

"Oop, sorry bout that" She said letting Fluttershy down, allowing her to breathe again.

"Well aint this just sweet" We heard from above, we looked up to see Jay and Jackson sitting on the concrete wall. "What up guy's, been a minute since we've last seen ya" Jay said as the two jumped down to greet us.

"How's it going man" Jackson said pulling me into a quick hug. "Whoa, you look like you packed on a bit of muscle these last few weeks, what've you been doing?" He asked, I shrugged in all honest.

"No idea, Rainbow pointed it out yesterday and I have no clue as to why I filled out so suddenly" I said. "Though maybe it's been the work Ive done for Aj thats made me like this, those apple crates are heavy, especially when you try to show off muscle you dont have" I said, chuckling as I remembered how I almost keeled over when I tried to impress Applejack by carrying three extra apple crates more than her. Admittedly it kinda worked until I threw up five minute later then was sent home. "Though my theory is that it's a side effect from whatever power I got when I fought Discord, it's not bad having muscle for once"

"Yeah, couple more months and you could look like a smaller version of us" Jackson joked getting a laugh out of Jay. "Anyways it's good to see you all, and uh Thomas, Luna was wanting to see you about something so might wanna head on over" He told me and I nodded.

"Alright, while I go and see Luna you two keep the girls company, oh and Jay" I said, getting his attention. "There's a little cutie and her mother wanting to talk with you" I said before walking off towards Luna.

Canterlot Castle, P.o.v- Jackson

"So you two are the one's that Jay saved, Im surprised you remember this guy at all" I said, walking the group through the halls. "It seems Jay over here has a fan, must really look up to you" I said seeing Mari beaming with joy just being next to Jay, he didn't seem to mind the attention either.

"Well we just wanted to thank you personally for saving our lives, if you and your friend hadn't held back Discord then Im sure we would've died, I am forever grateful mr. Jay" Lavender praised the already big headed man, the girl's were talking amongst eachother and making friendly like with Rainbows old friend Gilda. It really brought a smile to face seeing them all happy, but I knew deep down those happy face's will vanish when they discover whats going on, but I cant afford to let them know about the intruder. That's for myself and Luna to know until we catch the bastard, I just hope Thomas will forgive me afterwards for using him like bait.

"Ah, I see you two have greeted out honorable guests and it seems we have three new faces" We heard Celestia say, walking out of the maid's room. "Might I ask who you three are?"

"Of course your highness, Im Lavender grow and this is my daughter Marigold Grow, it's an honor to-Mari wait!" Lavender cried out as Mari now stood infront of the Princess.

"Wow... you really are beautiful" Mari complimented, making Celestia giggle at the comment. "Your hair is amazing as too, how do you get it to move like that?" Mari asked.

"Well my dear subject, that's a secret only myself and my sister are allowed to know" Celestia said, scooping up the girl in her arms. "But how about this, when you're a little older Mari, I'll teach you the spell in secret, sound good?"

"Yeah!" Mari exclaimed excitedly, hugging Celestia who was really keeping her composure well. She had a weakness for cuteness.

"Well aint this cute, you look like a mother Celestia, gotta say it looks good on you" I teased the woman.

"Oh hush, I cant help but absolutely love children" Celestia said, walking over then handing Mari to me.

"Whoooa, are you even real or are you made of rock mister?" Mari asked, making me laugh. "And why is my hair all frizzy?"

"Well Mari I can control lightning and I always emit a small electrical field around me which burns any fat on my body and chisels out my muscle, though between you and me... they can be a little annoying" I told her, making her 'aw' at this.

"Suuure, says the guy who spent an hour looking at himself in the mirror" Jay mocked, causing everyone to laugh and made me give an embarrassed blush.

"I thought you said you'd keep that a secret you jerk" I growled at Jay who just rolled his eyes. "Oh right, you probably wanna go back to your mother" I said remembering about Lavender and let Mari go back to her.

"She such a sweetheart, you are raising her well ms. Lavender" Celestia complimented her, which seemed to brighten up her day. "Apologizes for making you wait to announce yourself ms..."

"My names Gilda your highness, Im an old friend of Rainbow, it's nice to finally meet you" Gilda introduced herself, bowing a little.

"Well it's a pleasure to meet you three, Im sure you've heard about my niece's wedding happening in two days" Celestia said, which seemed to confuse the others, then I remembered about what happened yesterday. "I would be very pleased if you attended, of course you will be given dresses and a room to sleep in until the event has ended"

"Thank you very much for you hospitality Princess Celestia, we are grateful" Lavender said as the two bowed.

"Thank you Princess" Gilda thanked as well then bowed.

"Uh, Princess, wasn't my brother supposed to be married tomorrow?" Twilight asked makin me stiffen up at the question.

"Well it seem's Captian Armor has gotten himself injured while conversing with Jackson about his wedding day, but worry not, Mr. Adonis and nurse Violet have everything under control and promised to have him up and about in two days" Celestia said, assuring Twilight her brother was okay as well as lying to help me not face Twilights wrath. I mouthed a thank you to her, giving me a short nod in return. "Now Jackson, I do need assistance with other preparations for the wedding so if you please follow me, we can get to work"

"Right away Tia- I mean, Princess" I corrected, getting a smirk from Celestia which was subtle enough for only myself to see it.

"... Are you in love with mr. Jackson, Princess?" Mari asked suddenly getting everyone to freeze in place from Mari's words. "What?"

"Mari that is very rude and disrespectful, I thought we talked about this!" Lavender scolded her daughter, though Rainbow, Gilda and Jay were holding back their laughter from seeing my flustered face as well as Tia's red face. "What even makes you think of something like that!?" Lavender demanded to know.

"Well she gives a certain look to Mr. Jackson and even speaks differently to him, she also tries to get closer to him without realizing it and call's him by his first name" Mari explained which seemed to be making Celestia sweat a little. "Plus she gave him a smirk when Mr. Jackson called her Tia"

"*Ahem* Sorry to burst your theory little one, but I am just a very close friend of Jackson, he has been my most loyal and most trusted friend I've ever had so it has made me more comfortable around him" Celestia said which seemed to make Mari give her a suspicion look on her face. "N-Now if you'll excuse us we have some important business to attend to, Jackson"

"Coming princess, I'll see yall in a bit, for now I'll let Jay take my place as leader" I said and headed off with Celestia. "And Mari, try not to embarrass my boss as much, that's my job" I joked, laughing as Tia broke her composure and began beating my chest.

"So you think just because a little girl said I was in love with you, you think you can embarrass me more!?" Celestia yelled, though my laughter drowned it out. "C'mon you damn bastard or Im deducting your pay" she threated, storming off in a random direction.

"I'll see ya'll later, gotta go face my judgment, see you guys at dinner" I said before following my now angry boss.

Outside of Luna's Room, P.o.v- Thomas

"I wonder what Luna wants to talk about, first thing's first Thomas, you gotta apologize for losing yourself three weeks ago" I mumbled to myself as I stood infront of the dark blue door, I hesitated to knock because I didn't know how to word my apology. "Maybe I should come back later with an actual plan"

"Something on your mind Thomas?"

"Yeah, just trying to figure out how to word an apology to my friend" I said.

"Sounds exhausting, maybe you should just wing it"

"Nah, Luna would probably hate me if I only half assed an apology, maybe I can tell her that I didn't mean for things to go that far and ask for her forgiveness" I said with a sigh. "No that wont work either"

"I dont know, I kinda thought it was alright if you ask me"

"... Fuck it" I finally said with a made up mind, I reach out and gave three good knocks on the door. Now I stood their waiting for Luna to answer, though after a few minutes nothing happened. "Huh, is she not here?" I mumbled then knocked a couple more times.

"Hold on, let me get the door for you" The person said grabbing the door handle and opened up her room.

"Oh thanks, much appreciated... AAAH LUNA!" I screamed in fright seeing the woman, she laughed at my frightened self and walked into her room. "J-Jesus woman, you sure know how to scare someone half to death dont you?" I wheezed out, Luna on the other hand was laughing the entire time.

"C'mon Thomas it wasn't that bad, you're just a scaredy cat" Luna teased, I snorted softly at the remark. "Come, we have business to discuss as well as your roll for the wedding" Luna said waving a hand to follow her, following her command I let her lead me into the room. "Oh yes, I do forgive you for how you behaved last time, not that I actually minded" she said making me feel better about everything.

"Still as nice as I remember, you sure love cleanliness Luna" I complimented, taking a seat on the black sofa near the right wall. "So what business does the princess of the night need me for?" I asked the woman, though she seemed to already be one step ahead of me.

"To be my date of course" Luna said happily, tossing me a light blue crown with a black crescent moon in the middle. "For one night you will be my king and I your queen" she said, placing a similar crown on her head only it was more of a tiara than anything.

"W-Whoa, wait a minute, I-I don't know if my heart can take all that king and queen stuff, I dont know how to run a country!" I sputtered out as I gripped the crown tightly, feeling the smooth steel on my fingers, but as soon as I got familiar with the cold steel it glowed a bright white color which blinded me for a moment. I opened my eye's once the light disappeared and I was left with a pitch black crown with four tiny sharp horns arching upward, the texture was still smooth but the light blue steel was now charred black causing it to appear rough. "What the hell?"

"Whoa, I never seen it actually transform with someone else before" Luna said observing the pitch black crown. "Only myself and my sister are able to change the form at will, but the Changing Crown only works with royalty, how strange"

"Wait, the Changing what now?" I question as I look stared at the crown in confusion.

"The Changing Crown is a magical crown that every prince or princess have to forge, by hand, for their future king or queen. It is a very sacred tradition that is spread out in every kingdom, they say when the crown is finished they change shape with someone they have found worthy to be the next king or queen to rule beside you" Luna explained to me, although I was still a little confused with how the Changing Crown worked.

"Okay let me see if I got this straight, you forged a crown that will be for your future husband/king, and the crown will change shape if they find the person worthy of being said husband/king, correct?" I questioned to which Luna nodded in response. "Then... since it changed shape while in my hands... that means..." I trailed off with the slow realization hitting us both.

"... Oh... shit" Luna said what we were both thinking, we slowly looked at eachother only to quickly look away with the darkest shade of red covering our faces. "I-I mean its just a stupid crown!"

"Yeah totally, it would probably change shape if anyone held it" I quickly agreed.

"Of course! I bet that stupid story was untrue anyways s-so let's not jump to any conclusions a-alright" Luna stuttered out. We were both in a long silence, both of us unable to say anything, until a question popped in my head.

"Wait, why give me a crown for a little date?" I asked a bit more quietly than normal.

"Well my niece Cadance demanded I go and find a date for the wedding since everyone already had, I honestly couldn't really think of anyone else except, well, you" Luna admitted, I was truly both happy and flattered I was the only person she thought of.

"Im flattered Luna... guess I'm your king for that day" I said, agreeing to her request which got me a little peck on the cheek.

"Thank you" She said while I continued to turn red.

"I-it's no problem at all, h-how about you tell me more about your niece, what's she like?" I asked, quickly getting my mind together.

"Ah, you see, I learned only recently about her but Ive grown quite fond of her if Im to be honest with myself" Luna said. "It was shocking to have someone other than you talk, smile an laugh with me instead of be afraid, it felt incredible... in the short amout of time we spent together, I felt happy... I love that girl like she was my own daughter" Luna said with joy in her tone, it was nice seeing her so happy like this. I knew she was gonna meet someone who can see the good in her, it was only a matter of time so now Im certain she will find more people like her niece.

"You know, I kinda wanna meet your niece Luna as well as tell her congratulations on her wedding" I told Luna, she smiled at this before taking my hand.

"Well let's go meet her, I'm sure she's in her room making sure everything is going well" Luna said and raced us out of the room, we sped walked down the halls to reach Cadances room. On our way there Luna told me everything she was doing with Cadance while she was here, they read together, shared stories, practiced her magic and even went shopping to find a dress for Luna that would look good for the wedding. Luna smiled the entire time she talked about Cadance, a warm feeling washed over my body the more she smiled, it was intoxicating, I loved it.

"You're smile... it's beautiful" I said suddenly, making us both slow down until we came to a stop.

"W-What?" She asked a tad flustered at the comment.

"H-Huh... OH MY GOD DID I SAY THAT OUT LOUD!?!?!" I shouted, mentally slapping myself over and over again. "Wait that's not what I meant-I mean I thought it-but I didn't mean to say it outloud!" I exclaimed, trying to save myself but nothing was working and Luna's blush grew more an more.

"Beautiful?" Luna asked as she began slowly smiling at the words I said, she quickly turned away, letting go of my hand and covering her face in the process.

"I didn't mean to say it, Im sorry!" I apologized for making her so flustered, who am I kidding I'm feeling exactly how she's feeling.

"P-Please... don't apologize" Luna said, letting a hand fall to reveal a part of her flustered face. I suddenly felt that urge again, the same urge I had three weeks ago, I wanted her... right now. "I think it's sweet that you think my smile is beautiful"

"Luna... I-"

"Hello Auntie Luna" We heard a woman say behind us. We looked and we saw a woman with a fit hourglass body with bubble gum pink skin that looked as smooth as silk with eyes resembling amethysts and had hair that was long and flowing an had three distinct colors, hot pink, cream and purple. She wore a beautiful pink dress that faded to white near the bottom of it and had golden gladiator sandals. "I see you've been talking with... the help" she said with a very arrogant tone.

"Oh, we were just about to come see you Cadance" Luna said while fanning her blush away, I stood silent as I looked at the woman. From how she talked, this Cadance person doesn't sound like anything of what Luna was describing earlier at all. "How does your wedding dress feel, any comments or changes?" She asked.

"Yes actually, I would like to completely redo the dress, I found a rather more fitting design for this type of occasion. I heard that the element of generosity was quite skillful with a thread an needle, I must speak with her at once and demand she make me this new dress immediately" Cadance said, this sudden change had shocked Luna a bit but in the end nodded. "You, boy"

"Who, me?" I asked as she walked over to me, staring directly in my eyes.

"You will bring that woman to me immediately, then once that is done I want you out of this castle an out of my sight, are we clear?" Cadance ordered, I was starting to get a little annoyed by her attitude towards me.

"Excuse me?" I questioned making both Luna and Cadance stand up straight from my sudden change in tone. "Where Im from we say please if we want someone to do something for us, so why don't you try it princess" I told her, getting her to look at me with wide eyes, almost like she never had anyone talk back to her before. Meanwhile I was quietly wondering where this sudden aggressive attitude came from, I would never in a million years talk back to someone like this. What is going on.

"You dare tell me how to speak you ingrate, I ought to have you thrown into the dungeon for the rest of your life, you are a peasent and I royalty, you are to obey my every command!" Cadance exclaimed, ending with a small shove that actually pushed me back a good distance. When I recovered my footing from the push I looked back to Cadance and saw her trembling slightly, her eyes became wider with streams of tears suddenly coming down her face. "Y-You're... The... Devil"

"Cadance, are you alright?" Luna asked walking over to the scared girl, Cadance gasped a little before regaining her composure, even if it was a tiny bit. "Thomas, can you please go get Rarity, we really need to get that dress before the wedding" Luna said, I wanted to keep hanging out with Luna but I don't think I can stand that woman anymore. In the end, I sighed heavily when I turned around and walked off to go find Rarity.

"Please tell me you aren't inviting him to my wedding Auntie" Cadance said. "I heard about his little skirmish with Discord, they say he's the reincarnation of a devil, he even walks around her as if he owns the place"

"Now Cadance I know Thomas is a strange man, but I find him to be very interesting as well as a little cute, he's saved myself an others more time's then I can count so please... try to be a little more trusting" Luna said staring off to where I was walking. "I only believed men like him existed in fairytales, but there he is, a man with a golden heart" she said with a small smile.

"... Or devil in disguise"

"Something isn't right with that girl, Luna was giving her so much praise that I believed that Cadance girl was nothing more than a saint... is she stressed, multiple personalities, a perfectionist or does she just straight up hate me?" I muttered to myself, walking down the halls of the castle. "She acted like some sort of ignorant queen"

"Met my sister-in-law huh?" Twilight asked somehow appearing next to me. I've grown use to this since for the last few weeks she's been doing this in order to study me. "Princess of Love my ass, I felt no love when she saw me earlier"

"Yeah I know what you mean, all that praise she was given by Luna went down the drain when she spoke to me like I was a piece of garbage... something aint right here Twilight and I want to know what it is" I said getting a hum in a agreement from the girl.

"Im glad I'm not the only one, I can't put my finger on it but I think it has something to do with that threat against the kingdom" Twilight said surprising me with this news.

"A threat, from who?" I asked.

"Yeah, I talked to my brother earlier before wandering around and he told me that a threat from an unknown enemy is planning to attack the kingdom on the day of the wedding" Twilight told me, I processed this information for a moment to see if this could help me piece together this puzzle. "He also told me that he's been working around the clock keeping that barrier up, he looked exhausted but when I told him to rest he said he was fine and that Cadance was helping him with his fatigue along with his headaches"

"I didn't know magic could help with head aches, would've visited you a few days ago to get rid of a killer migraine" I said with a small chuckle.

"So that why I didn't see you for three days, I would've gone straight to you if I had known" Twilight said, I snorted softly then patted her head.

"I didn't know you cared, Im touched" I said causing her to punch my side, this time it actually hurt. "Yeesh, dont like head pat's?"

"As a matter'o fact I don't, especially from someone like you" Twilight stated with a 'humph' I laughed at how she was acting so I gave her another head pat. "I told you I don't like head pats Thomas" Twilight growled though her words didn't match her facial expression.

"That smile says other wise Twily" I teased as I looked at her smile. "I told you, you have a great smile didn't I?"

"Shut up you idiot" Twilight answered, pushing my hand off her head then began walking faster. "C'mon I wanna go talk with my brother about this attack an try to figure out what else is going on" Twilight said, I still have to find Rarity an take her to Cadance. I was going to tell Twilight until I saw Blazing and Silver coming in the opposite direction.

"Blazing, Silver, good to see you guys!" I exclaimed getting their attention. They perked up seeing me and came over to me an Twilight.

"Thomas what's up, haven't seen you in a while, thought you forgot about us" Silver said with a little jab to my arm.

"For real man, you were starting to make us feel lonely" Blazing said with a teasing smile. "Don't you like us anymore?" Asked pushing herself onto me causing me to blush a little.

"O-Of course I've missed y'all but-but I just didn't have time to visit since I'm still kinda recovering" I told them as Silver came up and clung to my right side. "G-Girls, please, I wanted to ask you a favor" I said.

"A favor, what kinda favor?" Blazing asked gaining a rather devilish smile.

"W-Well can you please go find and take my friend Rarity to princess Cadance for me" I requested from them and they looked at eachother then back to me with an unfamiliar look.

"Alright Thomas, but in exchange-" Blazing started

"We get a favor in return" Silver finished, the way they made favor sound was kinda seductive. I wanted to go with Twilight to figure out what was going on around here so I agreed to their demand.

"Alright, I'll do whatever you want no questions asked, deal?" I told them before they both kissed my cheeks.

"Deal, let's go Silver" Blazing said to the girl and they both went off to find Rarity. I was left with a burning red face while they walked off, Twilight looked at me for a second then punched my arm.

"Ow! What the hell!?"

"C'mon lover boy, keep your pants on we got some stuff to figure out" Twilight said sounding a bit angry for some reason. She hit me one more time before rushing off.

"Hey, wait for me damn it!"

Medical Wing, P.o.v- Jay

"Stay. Back" I warned Shining, I stood infront of Vie to make sure she's safe from this lunatic. "I don't know what the hell is going on, but attacking us will achieve nothing!" I told him, but he just growled at me like a wild animal. Shining was fine a few minutes ago then when Vie tried to put some new bandages on he almost broke her arm, if I wasn't their to stop him he probably would've.

"Kill the dragon boy, Kill the dragon boy, Kill the dragon" He mumbled to himself grabbing a scalpel from a nearby tray. He positioned himself in a stance before long for me, I pushed Violet out the way and tackled the man to the wall but he jabbed the scalpel into left wing continuously. The pain was to great to keep my grip on him, unfortunately he knew this and headbutted me as hard as he could getting us both to bleed from our foreheads.

I staggered back a bit but was immediately punched in the face by Shining. I went for a jab with my right only for him to push it away and stab my arm, I cried out in pain for a moment before back handing Shining with the same fist he pushed away. He flew back to a bed in the corner of the room while I fell to my knees from the amount of pain going through my body.

"I... am so glad... I showed... everyone to their rooms first" I panted out, my throat an mouth were becoming more dry by the second and the amount of blood coming out of me was starting to making me feel dizzy. "Guess thats why-ah!- you're the captain of the royal guards... you know all the weak points in my body, dont you?" I asked, ripping the scalpel out of my arm.

"Oh my goddess, a-are you okay!?" Vie asked, quickly rushing to my side. "He missed the vital areas on your back and shoulder but you wont able to use your wings for awhile, I'm going to try and stop the bleeding so just stay still" Violet told me then quickly got to work on my body with her magic.

"We're not done dragon boy, not by a long shot" We heard Shining say, getting back up from the bed. He looked around before picking up a needle near the sink and began his walk towards us, I strained to opened my wings to protect Violet. It hurt so much, but I had to keep Violet safe so I grit my teeth and spread them open, I groaned in utter agony but nothing else mattered otger than Violet. "A fleeting effort, damn Changeling" he spat.

"Stay away... from Violet, you bastard" I strained to say, I looked up and noticed he had those strange green eye's again from when he fought Jackson. "I wont let you hurt her" I stated.

"I'll kill you and all those traitorous Changeling's trying to destroy my home" Shining said now standing infront of us with the needle raised up, I spun around and shielded Violet with my body then waited for what was to come.

"Now now my love, I think we can hold off on killing these fools for a while longer" We heard someone say, cautiously I looked behind me and saw princess Cadance. "I found him, The Devil"

"I see, what do we do about these two my queen?" Shining asked which confused me, it was like he was speaking to someone other than his fiance. That's when a circle of green fire surrounded the princess and soon the flames bursted upward around her. When the fire left I saw a woman with charred black skin that had holes along her arms an legs, her body was a like Cadance's but a little more plump in her thighs, she had long dark sea green hair with light green eyes, dark green lips to match her eyes and had both a black horn and sea green wings that resembled a fly's. She wore a long bluish green dress that rips towards the bottom, black high heels and finally, a black an green tiara that sat atop her head.

"W-Who are you, and have you done to my friend you imposter!?" I exclaimed only to be silenced with the needle shining was holding getting thrown into my other wing. I cursed under my breath as I felt the pain course through me once more.

"You will show respect to Queen Chrysalis you damned dragon" Shining told me, each word felt like more daggers hitting my body.

"Calm down my love, we shall deal with them in due time, but for now... I believe these two deserve a very pleasant vacation, don't you think?" Queen Chrysalis suggested, coating her horn and hands in a green aura of magic.

"I do think you are right my Queen" Shining said before this Chrysalis woman enveloped us in her sicking magical aura. "In a nice dark cave with that woman" was the last thing we heard before we got transported somewhere. When we soon appeared in the place they where talking about, I felt our bodies falling so I wrapped my wings around Violet and cushioned the landing with my body.

"J-Jay! Oh my goodness, oh my goodness please stay with me Jay, whatever you do don't move" Violet ordered, frantically getting off of me then started preforming her medical magic on me.

"I-Im sorry" I said.

"Dont talk, save your energy damn it!" She shouted out, concentrating harder on my wounds. "You did everything you could, Shining Armor is a lot stronger than you has fought many more battles thsn all of you combined, you may know a few things about fighting but he's the captain for a reason"

"Im sorry" I said again.

"I told you to shut up didn't I" Violet said, sweat dripped off her face and her hands shook with strain, her magic was being pushed to their absolute limits right now. "Just a little bit longer Jay, y-you'll be okay I promise"

"Im sorry" I said before falling unconscious.

???, P.o.v- Violet

"Jay... JAY!" I screamed, finally finishing my spell. It wasn't enough but I was able to stop the bleeding from the stab wounds, all his injuries were aimed towards his weak points precisely which made them harder to heal. "Jay you gotta wake up, c'mon open your eye's damn it!" I screamed some more, trying to wake him up.

"Maybe... I can help" heard a woman say from the darkness, I snapped my head towards the voice and saw the last person I thought I'd see. "My healing magic is considered the best in all of equestria, please let me help him" Princess Cadance pleaded, this Cadance looked like she had been starved an dehydrated for days. Her hair was a mess and her dress was completely turned to rag's clinging to her body.

"P-Princess... but how are you-"

"That bitch tossed me down her a few weeks ago in order to take my place, she disguised herself as a maid before attacking me in my room then when I was weakened she fook up my form an banished me down in canterlot's crystal mines" Cadance explained as she walked over to Jay, with a gentle hand she checked his pulse then laid her head on his chest to hear his heart beat. "He's just unconscious, it looks like he barely sustained any damage to his body save for those recently closed wounds... was it my future husband that did this?"

"How did you know?" I asked.

"I knew she'd take over his mind, she must've been observing this man for quite awhile to find out any weak points then told my Shiny how to take him down" Princess Cadance said, she covered her hands and horn in a calming light blue magical aura then began her healing spell. "This will take a moment, I need absolute silence for this to work so please bear with it for a moment. I'll help your boyfriend get back into action" She said with a comforting smile.

"How'd you know we were a couple?" I asked only to quickly cover them give a muffled apology.

"Heh, well I am the princess of love miss, love is kinda my forte" The Princess said before going back to concentrating on Jay.

'Im glad Jay will be okay, but everyone else doesn't know about Chrysalis, we need to get out of here before its to late'

Medical Wing, P.o.v- Thomas

"Huh, that's weird" I said as Twilight an I stood in the empty room. It didn't look like anyone was there or even set foot in the room. "Are you sure this is the room Twilight?"

"Yes Im sure I was just here a few minutes ago" Twilight argued, trying to find out why no one else is here. "Maybe they decided to take a break and maybe Shining felt better" she said, though I think that was unlikely since Jay an Violet rarely leave this place from what he told me when he came to visit.

"I don't like this Twilight, something is telling me that danger is afoot... I want to know why my friend isn't here with Violet and I want to know more about this threat" I firmly stated.

"Okay, let's just calm down and think. The last time I was in this room was when nurse Violet and Jay were checking up on my brother, Shining said he felt like he could run a marathon so he asked to see if he can leave. Nurse Violet said that she will do one more check up to determine if he was physically alright like he said then she said I needed to leave so they could proceed... I guess he was right, so they must've taken him to see the Princess and show her his recovery" Twilight said, coming to a conclusion while I thought about it.

"On the way here you said Shining fought Jackson correct?" I asked to which she nodded. "You also said he was pretty banged up with that little fight with Jackson, how can a man like your brother withstands attacks from Jackson who literally looks and is as strong as a superhero in my world?" I asked her, but as Twilight was gearing up for an answer she stopped. She opened her mouth once or twice before finally thinking it over.

"I knew I'd find you here, but I didn't expect to see you with that insolent cur Twilight" We heard Cadance say from behind, we turned to face her which led us both to give her nasty looks. "I'm here to tell you that the wedding has been moved up to tomorrow thanks to my healing magic helping my future husband, I also gave those two who worked so hard keeping my shiny happy the month off with pay" she told us with a smile, though it felt like a forced smile instead of genuine one.

"Well that's good to hear I guess, but where are Violet and Jay now Princess?" I asked her.

"They decided to head to miss Violets house and spend some time together, a young couple does need time to get... well acquainted with one another" Cadance answered, making us both blush a slight pink at the comment. "Anyways, I hope to see you two at the wedding, oh yes, I actually want to ask Twilight if she could be my bridesmaid for the wedding" she said suddenly making Twilight get taken aback.

"But I thought you didn't like me?" Twilight questioned the woman. "When I did the 'sunshine' dance you looked at me like I was completely stupid" She said which now got my attention.

"Im sorry, I've been very stressed out with the wedding as well as sending out invitation, the decorating and my new duties as a princess, I hope you will forgive my rudeness Twilight" Cadance apologize which actually sounded genuine. "I'll give you time to think about it, I'm going to go check on Shiny, cant wait for your answer" she said excitedly before rushing off.

"Think she's telling the truth?" Twikight asked me, I scoffed.

"If she's telling the truth, then I can fly" I said. "I dont think thats really Cadance, and her suddenly being rude then nice to us also meant something was going her way" I said getting a look from Twilight.

"You dont think this fake Cadance is the one who made the threat do you?" Twilight asked, I wasn't to sure right now since we know nothing right now, but I have a hunch that she is apart of it.

"It might just be an assumption, but I have a hunch I might be correct. For now we gotta make sure everyone's alright, I'll go check on Luna and Rarity while you go make sure your brother and the others are okay, sound good?" I asked and she nodded.

"Be careful Thomas, that woman might not have us fooled, but she most likely has fooled everyone else" Twilight warned before heading off toward the other's. If Im right, then everyone is in deep trouble right now and that attack will happen sometime tomorrow.

"I have to warn everybody, wait... if I just come up to them and say 'that woman is not the real Cadance', they would all think Im lying " I told myself, I mulled over how to make everyone believe me though everything I thought of came back as nothing. "Damn it, there has to be something that can help me with my case but what!?" I questioned, getting more frustrated with every passing second.

"Hey brat, instead of whinning like an infant, how about you use my vision to help you look for clues" The demon suggested.

"Wait, I you can give me your vision?" I asked.

"Of course I can you idiot, you just only ever ask for my physical power instead of my other power's" He said making me wonder about what other power's this demon has. "Brace yourself brat, this is gonna sting a little" he told me, just as I was about to ask I felt both my pupils and retinas burn as if they were on fire.

I screamed in response to feeling this uncontrollable pain in my eyes. I used whatever sight I had left to look for a sink, unfortunately the pain was so grand that I was collapsed to floor before even moving a step. At one point I thought ripping my own eye's out was better than this, but the thought soon passed when the pain immediately vanished just as it appeared. I hadn't noticed I was breathing until I choked up a bit, gasping and coughing profusely until I got back to my regular breathing pattern.

"Jesus lord almighty.... what did you do to me!?" I demanded only to have the demon laugh.

"Go to the mirror" He instructed me, I wanted to yell at him but I grumbled at his instructions before I got up an walked to the mirror in the back of the room. "Say this word in your head, Laever" he said, I shrugged at the weird name and thought for a moment.

'Laever' I thought, I watched my eyes become pitch black around my now white slit pupil's. "What the hell!" I exclaimed in fright, the room was all shaded black with the outlines being white. I looked around for a few seconds to get myself adjusted to this new ability until I saw a large puddle of white on the floor and even a green mist a few inches from it. "What am I looking at here demon?"

"The space between worlds, no matter what you do to clean or fix a tragedy or accident, it will never be gone for good" He said, I walked over to the mist and puddle to examine it more until I noticed a distinct smell coming from the puddle. "Blood"

"Yes, but whose blood is something I have yet to find out... perhaps it has something to do with you my green misty friend" I said as I stared at the mist. Taking a risky chance, I reached out to touch it though when I got near it the mist shot backwards then whooshed out the room. "Get back here!" I yelled out quickly chasing after it.

I chased the green mist through numerous hallways and rooms, it was like this thing was trying to shake me for some reason, it was like it had a mind of its own. It made a sharp right down another hall before fazing through a door, I slowed down to a stop and began catching my breath.

"Say lamron" The demon said.

"Lamron" I repeated which immediately brought my vision back to normal. I stared at the door the mist fazed throught and noticed it looked a bit like Luna's except it was pink with a blue crystal heart. "Why go here, what's behind this door?" I questioned.

"I remember you, what are doing infront of my fiance's door?" Asked a familiar voice, I turned to see none other than mister cock block himself.

"So your name is Shining Armor, I just assumed your name was mister cock block" I said getting an annoyed look from him.

"I can't cock block someone if they we're going to have sex in the first place" He retorted. "And besides, why would anyone want to do a scrawny little man like you?" Shining questioned in a snooty tone.

"I don't know, why would a princess marry an incompetent man with little to no regard for his family as well as not talking to your own blood for a whole decade?" I shot back at him, seems I left a mark on that insult. "Oh yeah, and why would a princess marry a one pump chump?" I asked, finishing my little list of insults.

"You know, I think I might've saved princess Luna from the worst night she could have had with a dumb little shit like you, hell she might as well come to me if she wants to have a real man in bed with her lonely ass" Shining said though before he could say anymore, my hand was firmly around his throat.

"Wanna run that by me again?" I asked clenching his throat even more. "If you touch her, I'll break you" I threatened, this feeling washing over me felt amazing. The fear in his eyes was immensely satisfying to see, I want to hear him scream, beg for mercy, I wanna watch him bleed. "Jesus christ!" I shouted suddenly quickly letting go of Shining, I fell back and clutched my head to ease this massive headache.

"Y-You're... you're the devil!" Shining screech out, I was to busy trying to keep this horrible feeling buried in the confines of my mind. Shining had gotten up from the floor then grabbed me by the hair before going into Cadance's room, throwing me at her feet. "My Queen, I've found him as requested, it seems he wasn't just here to find that purple haired woman" he stated to someone, I mustered enough strength to look up at Cadance only to see a completely different woman entirely.

"Good job my loyal husband, now that we've secured the devil... we can make him our slave, hold him down" Ordered the woman, Shining held both my arms with one hand then used his other to pull my hair as a means to get me to raise my head. "A devil with no horns or tail is a devil to weak to be amongst his own, I shall take pity on you and let you become one of my many lovers as well as my eternal slave, giving up your life for me and me alone" She said as she lit up her horn, I tried to struggle out of this hold but this son of a bitch had a tight grip and weighed like a pile of bricks.

"Get back... stay away!" I shouted to no avail, the woman placed her hands on my head then transferred her magic to her hands. The magic burbed my skin tremendously, I felt something sharp piercing the inside of my skull, I was being taken over. I wailed in agony as the magic screwed my brain, it was the most Excruciatinging, unbearable pain I've ever felt in my entire existence.

"Become my pet, serve me like a good slave, you are mine and mine alone!" The woman exclaimed in joy, laughing as she performed her spell on me. That laughing stopped when she felt something amiss with her spell, she concentrated harder but something had stopped her mind controlling spell. "What is this, you dare defy my will you little cretin!?

"I am no slave, nor will I ever be you goddamn bitch!" I answered, using the demons power to block and push the magic out of me. "Now get... off... of... ME!" I roared, it was full of so much force that it made them fly back in opposite directions of eachother. "Im going to enjoy killing you two-" I stopped when my body pulsed and I collapsed to the ground. 'Damn... my body hasn't recovered from the last time, I've used to much energy... I'm gonna pass out, damn...' was my last thought before I fell into darkness.

"T... as... will.... oka...."

"... will try......"

I heard bit's an piece's of a random conversation, though I couldn't make put together what was going on. I strained a little to open my eyes but as I did, all I could see was a pink blob and nothing else.

"I feel... warm" I muttered eliciting a distant gasp from the one's around me. "I only see pink" I continued muttering, slowly my vision started to become clearer by the second and the blog was soon taking shape into something I honestly didn't expect. "Boobs?" I questioned, poking one without thinking getting the woman to 'eep'.

"Uhm... p-please dont poke my chest" I heard a sweet voice say, then a flood of embarrassment washed over me. I shot into a sitting position immediately then threw myself backwards into a wall.

"I am so sorry, I didn't mean to touch your chest it was an accident!" I apologized rather profusely, I took a moment to get my bearings to understand whats going on until I saw Jay laying unconscious on the ground next to. "Violet, oh my god your okay!" I exclaimed excitedly, rushing over to hug the girl.

"Yeah, he's okay" Violet said as she hugged me back.

"I see, however he still needs to be tended to so please come back to me if you will" I heard that voice say again, I turned to see who it was and to my surprise it was Cadance, only more put through the ringer. "I'm sure your confused as to why there are two Cadance's, well that bitch up in the castle is a fake named Chrysalis and she plans to take over Equestria starting with Canterlot" The Cadance explained and I groaned.

"Im awake for three weeks and I have to save Equestria again!" I complained a little. "Like seriously, I found two literal deities for christ sake so what is up with people hell bent on taking over in this place!?" I groaned loudly and laid back down.

"Ooooh so you're the one who helped Auntie Luna come back and defeated Discor" Cadance said with sudden realization. "I honestly thought it was the Lightning guy or Jay over here, what are your power's?" She asked, I sighed when she asked and summoned my sword an the shield Luna gave me. ".... go on"

"That's it" I told her in a monotone voice.

"I see... how the hell did he beat Auntie and Discord!?" She whisper to Violet.

"Well actually, Jay told me that Thomas turned into a terrifying being that could only be manifested in his worst of nightmares then proceeded to beat the living shit out of Discord bare handed and with swordplay" Violet said making Cadance feel a little doubtful at this. "Apparently that's what Jackson said too, even Twilight and her friends said the same thing"

"I guess I just have to see it with my own eyes to believe it" Cadance said which was fair since I only turned into that demon or devil form once. "I just hope you an your friends will be able to take down Chrysalis in time"

"Oh yeah that reminds me, how long have I been out for?" I asked the pair.

"A day" Violet answered, I sprung to my feet immediately upon hearing those words.

"No... we have to get out of here, now!" I exclaimed, running around to try and find an escape route. "C'mon guy's, help me out here!"

"We tried already Thomas, we can't find a way out... it's hopeless" Cadance said, her tone dropping from normal to depressed. "Today was supposed to be my special day, I was gonna marry the most handsome and honest man I know, I was finally gonna be happy with someone I loved... but it's all ruined, I'm stuck down here while that fuckin bitch takes away everything that I love" she said, crying halfway through her rant.

"It's not over yet Cadance, we still have time to get that happily ever after!" I told her. "Are you just gonna let some bitch steal your identity, steal your soon to be husband, hurt your family!?" I questioned and she thought for a minute. "If you're not willing to fight and get your hands dirty, then you don't deserve a happily ever after at all!"

"You've said enough Thomas, think about how Cadance is feeling right now-"

"I know exactly how she's feeling, I just want to hear her say it" I said, waiting for the princess of love to respond.

"... Im gonna end that whore" Cadance stated confidently, she rose to her feet and wiped away her tears. "I remember I use to come these mines as a little girl, my memory however is a little hazy on the details but I do know their is a way in an out of this place, unfortunately it's a complete maze from here to the exit"

"Then all we have to do is find the right path in order to get out, which tunnels have you tried so far?" I asked, she pointed out three tunnels behind them and one tunnel to my right, leaving only two tunnels to search. "Okay, let me try something real quick" I said, turning my attention to the tunnels. 'Laever' I said in my head giving me the demons vision.

I looked at the two tunnels up ahead and notice dark but noticeable footprints. I walked over to the tunnel on the right then inspected the footprints, they looked heavy, as if they were wearing armor. I walked back to the three and slapped Jay as hard as I could, scaring Cadance and Violet.

"Wake up sleeping beauty!" I announced, repeatedly slapping him until he finally woke up.

"I ought a break your fuckin hand you dick head!" Jay growled, his anger being shown with small puffs of flames coming out of his mouth. His anger vanished when Violet literally threw herself onto him, crying tears of joy.

"Im so happy you're okay!" Violet exclaimed happily, tightening her hold on Jay.

"Of course Im okay, you think a little beating like that will take me out of the fight?" Jay asked jokingly, he was immediately slapped then kissed then slapped again.

"Yeesh, and I thought I had trouble conveying emotions" I said to Cadance eliciting a giggle from her.

"You know Thomas, I can see why Auntie likes to talk about you, you're very easy to talk too and you give pretty good pick me up speeches" Cadance said, I snorted at her comments but I guess she was right about being easy to talk too.

"You know I was actually pretty shy when I first came to this land, always the less likely to be the center of attention. I guess you never know whats bound to happen in the future" I said, remembering my old life back home. "Anyways, we gotta get going so we can make it in time for your wedding" I said before offering the princess a hand.

"You're right, we must get moving before it's too late" Cadance stated, after getting Violet to stop kissing and slapping Jay repeatedly, we finally made our way inside the tunnel with the footprints. I used Laever to guide us through the tunnel's safely while studying where these footprints had come from. "I have to ask Thomas, how did you end up here?" She asked.

"Well princess, myself and Twilight split up to go make sure our friends were okay but I stayed behind to investigate anything clues left behind to help me prove the Cadance up their was a fake, unfortunately I got caught infront of your room while following a lead and I kinda entered a little insult contest with you fiance. He said something that really pissed me off and kinda started losing it, but I was able to stop myself from killing him then he dragged me into your room where Chrysalis was, they tried to take over my mind, failed, I passed out and here I am" I explained to her, she seemed like she had many questions right about now.

"Wait, how'd you know Chrysalis was the fake me?" Cadance asked.

"Luna sung your praises on our way towards your room, I wanted to meet you since you were the one other person who saw her as a person, she told me you're like a daughter to her so when I met Chrysalis... I just sorta knew it wasn't you" I answered, Cadance seemed to smile a bit when I mentioned how Luna felt about her. "Oh yeah, congratulations on your engagement" I added in, getting her to laugh.

"Why thank Thomas, you really know how to make someone feel better" Cadance said, I chuckled at this. "When you beat that bug woman, I will personally make you the guest of honor at the wedding" She told me and I was overwhelmed with gratitude.

"I-I... I don't know what to say, I'd be extremely honored princess" I said, bowing a little.

"Oh please dont bow, never cared for that anyways, and call me Cadance" Cadance told me to which I was happy to do. We soon reached a fork in the road, each one as dark as the others.

"Which way now?" Jay asked.

"Huh, that's weird" I said, kneeling down infront of a strange green pile on the floor. "This looks like... mucus, but from what I've gathered there shouldn't be any living creatures in these tunnels except for us" I said as I looked around with caution, we stayed silent for a moment to see what will happen until I felt a droplet fall on my arm.

I looked at it and then shot my gaze above us to another tunnel just above us. I stayed very still and motioned the others to do the same, I activated laever and almost froze on the spot.

"Thomas... what's going on?" Cadance asked, which I quickly answered by taking an arrow to the shoulder. "What in the name of-!"

"RUN!" I screamed and pushed Cadance towards Jay who picked up both ladies and started making a break for it. "Take the right tunnel, I saw smaller footprints over there that looked recent, it must've been Chrysalis!" I instructed the man as I summoned my shield, blocking and deflecting anymore arrow attacks. We quickly entered the tunnel to get to safety, however when I looked back I took notice of the endless amounts of strange beings that looked like Chrysalis, only they wore charcoal black armor and helmets accompanied by a large jagged sword in hand.

"Thomas we gotta do something man, I don't know if we can out run these guys!" Jay exclaimed, I knew he was right so I slide to a stop then summoned my sword. "Thomas, what are doing!?"

"Buying you time" I said, taking out my phone and hit random.

Third P.o.v

Thomas took off like a rocket as the song began, flying head first into the small army with only his shield and sword. Taking a bit of the demons power, Thomas's movements grew faster as he swung his sword either attacking or parrying. The swarm of soldiers surrounded the man as a way to overwhelm him but Thomas was putting up a fight worth a whole group of men.

Thomas shield bashed one of them then stabbed him before ripping it out of the thing's chest an cutting another one's head off. His movements matched the tempo of the song that played perfectly, it was like he was dacing around the place with little to no effort in each step or strike he took.

Thomas was so occupied about fighting that he hadn't noticed the black ink creeping up his torso. He smiled as he fought with extreme excitement, one monster went for a horizontal slash but he bent backwards far enough to dodge. Thomas dug his sword in the ground an kicked the bug thing with all his might then used the moment he gain to do a spin attack, killing three other bug creatures around him.

Once Thomas got back to his feet he blocked two arrows with his shield and hurled his sword like a boomerang, killing dozens of the endless horde. Calling the blade back to his hand was a different story as the bug creature's tried to take hold of it on it's way back his hand. As Thomas waited he fought bare handed with the creatures, he swung a hard right against one of them making them fly back due to the force, then he used his shield to break a hole into another bug creatures chest piece reducing them to an unconscious state.

"C'mon you fuckin bastards, you want some more!?" Thomas lashed out, breaking another creatures neck. "I'll kill you all and take pleasure in it!" He yelled at the top of his lungs, laughing uncontrollably then suddenly stopped. It was as if someone had turned him off, but the moment a creature went to attack it was skewered by two black tendrils, it lifted the thing up and rip it in half, letting it fall with a wet splat on the floor. This scared the other's around which caused them all to stop their attack. "What's the matter...scared to die?" Thomas asked as the black ink now covered his body from his neck down, only this time it grew over the left side of his face creating a shadow mask with a white eye and a white jagged smile. His horns grew to the sides of his head but two new horns grew on his forehead, curving up to a sharpened point.

The creature's around shook upon looking at this terrifying form. Like before the black ink at away at Thomas's shirt until nothing was left, leaving him more open than before. His body gave off little steam trails as this black ink sat on his body, although it didn't effect the shield nor the sword in any way.

"C'mon, who want's to go first?" He asked, seeing as no one was trying to attack Thomas chuckled. "Then get out of my way" He told them, but they didnt move. Gritting his teeth he looked at his right and decided to try something both stupid and unbelievable. "Blackhole..." He started then reeled his arm back then shot it forward, stretching out out like some sort of rubber band. "BULLET!!!" he roared, striking a nearby bug creature but it didn't stop their, Thomas stretched his arm until he shot through a line of them before bringing it back. "It worked... guess I need more practice though, now then" He said staring at the other's around him. "Whose next?"

Crystal Mines, P.o.v- Jay

"Wait, put me down we have to go back and help Thomas!" Cadance shouted, trying to squirm out of my hold.

"You do not want to go back there princess, Thomas is different from what you initially thought" I said. "He's not Thomas right now"

"What are you talking?" She asked.

"You see, when Thomas fought Discord he turned into something I didn't think could exist, it this aura that myself and Jackson could feel from the other side of the city. Right now, I only feel that aura creeping up on us, hell I'd rather fight Chrysalis than ever fight Thomas when he has that black shit on him" I said, trying to explain it to the princess though I'm sure I just told her that Im a wuss. "Look, all that matters is that we get you to the wedding in order to stop Chrysalis"

"Jay, I know you want us to keep a steady pace but I think we can run on our own" Violet told me and which admittedly I was gonna let them down the second we got to a safe distance from that bloodbath bacl their, but I keep having this feeling of uncertainty. It's as if my body is telling me 'if you stop then you'll die'. "I think some of them are coming Jay, they might've came after us while Thomas was dealing with the rest"

"Damn... okay you two, I'm gonna buy you some time to run so no matter what you hear, do not look back" I told them as I put them down, I turned in the bug people's direction and only saw four. "I can handle this, I'll catch up in no time now go!" I exclaimed, rushing towards the four bug people before the two could protest.

"C'mon, we gotta go!" Violet said grabbing Cadance's hand and continued running on. The moment I got close to one I went for a right jab, but it dodged in time giving him time to counter with own which felt as heavy as a fifty pound weight. I coughed up some spit but I choked down the pain and grabbed the thing by the head with my left and slammed him to the ground as hard as I could. It looked like I knocked him out, but I forgot their was three more.

"Shit!" I mustered out just before I was slashed across the chest, I knew what slashes felt like but. "I-It... burns" I spat out, coughing up some blood though I had dodged another attack from the same soldier. I huffed and puffed till I felt my throat dry up and my lungs burn, that sword was like a blade of acid. I ducked under a jab from the second one then blocked a kick from the third.

When I blocked the third one's kick I grabbed it and swept him off his feet and onto the ground where I spun him around until I hurled him towards the first creature's body. He caught his friend but in doing so he left them both wide open to which I rushed over and dropped kicked them both towards the wall, knocking them out. The last bug creature stared at me with full intent to kill me, I narrowed my sights on him and picked up an acid obsidian sword on the floor, thankfully it didn't burn my hand.

"Let's do this you ugly fuck" I said, loud enough for him to here. He gave a loud war cry as he made his way towards me, I raised the sword towards him and got ready to attack. After watching Thomas swing his sword I can kinda guess his technique for swordplay, I was gonna try to end this in one blow but the moment the bug man was infront of me I quickly had to jump back as a blade skewered right through him. It scared me a little when the sword appeared, but what scared me more was the person who threw it. "Holy shit... Thomas... is that you?"

"J... J-J... Jay" Thomas groaned as he reached up and ripped his sword of the dead man's back. "I... I dont know h-how but...I did it, I killed them all" He said, I was too shocked staring at his banged up body. It was like he was chew up by a ginormous bear then spat out, the amounts of bruises on his body were endless and the slash marks along with scratches an cut's were right be it. That form he had seemed to have run out at some point to which he was more vulnerable to their attacks, so much blood was on his body that it was hard to distinguish if it was his or the bug men he slaughtered. "Jay... take me to that whore... right now" He demanded, standing infront of me then collapsed in my arms.

"Thomas, you're so banged up that Im scared to take you to Chrysalis... she'll kill you" I said though he did not answer. "If yoh think acting brave will get me to take you then you have another thing co-"

"Being brave isn't the absence of fear. Being brave is having that fear but finding a way through it... do you understand what Im saying Jay?" Thomas asked, and I did. "He who has takin everything, will have end up with nothin"

"... Okay, lets get you to that wedding, you are the guest of honor" I said, chuckling a little before running after Violet and Cadance.

"Damn it where are they!?" I exclaimed as I ran through the empty halls of the castle, Thomas had used whatever strength he had to guide us towards the exit. Unfortunately it seemed that our little fight had taken longer than expected because we couldn't find the girls anywhere, but Thomas said he knows that they got out somehow.

"You doing alright man?" I asked but it looks like he passed out on my back. "I hope you have a plan to deal with Chrysalis, but for now I gotta get you to Cadance so she treat your wounds" I said and chuckled a bit, "Dont you worry Tommy, me an Jackson can take down Chrysalis no problem so you just sit back and take a break" I told his unconscious self before running even faster.

We ran past a couple of maids an guard's doing their jobs and they looked liked they were terrified seeing Thomas all banged up, but they didn't have time to ask what happened. I didn't have time to stop, I needed to find Cadance right now.

"Hault mr. Adonis!" I heard a guard's woman ordered, I looked up ahead and saw Blazing and Silver. "I said HAULT!" Blazing demand, her voice both pissed and powerful. I skidded to a stop upon hearing her order and stopped a few inches from them, they glared a me for a second then we heard Silver gasp seeing Thomas.

"Gods above, Thomas!" Silver shrieked inspecting his face and body. "W-What have you done to Thomas!" Silver exclaimed, quickly going for her sword but Blazing stopped her.

"Stand down Silver, look at how bad mr. Adonis is as well, it seems they were fighting something... or someone" Blazing pointed out, and she dead right. "Who has done this to our sweet Thomas?" She demanded to know, though I'm not sure she would believe me.

"Well... it's hard to explain but if we get to the throne room I can explain everything!" I said, they looked to one another before nodding and Silver took Thomas off my back and held him up in her arms. "Quickly, we don't have much time, has the wedding started?" I asked, though before either could answer we heard bells chiming from inside the castle then heard the sounds of music could be heard as well. "Let's move!" I ordered, we quickly sprinted through the halls and with stronger people holding Thomas it was easier to run without worrying about his health.

Hall after hall, we raced down each and every one of them until we were in view of the throne room. As we got closer to the door we suddenly heard shouting from the otherside, it kinda sounded like Twilight along with Violet and Cadance. I went to open the door but Thomas was already opening it, I looked an noticed not even Blazing or Silver noticed him until a few seconds passed. I turned back and we already heard screams of horror.

Throne Room, P.o.v- Thomas

I could hardly breathe, I could hardly see, hell, I can hardly stand. I don't how I was able to move so quickly to the door, but I didn't care at the moment, all I cared about was what I was going to do next. I opened the door to the Throne room and was meet with a scream of horror from a woman with pale grey skin and white hair with light purple in it.

I breathed heavily as I walked further into the room, I could feel the stares all around me with each heavy step I took. I looked around with my tired eye's and saw Twilight, Cadance and Violet looked at me with eye's that looked mortified. I continued to press in towards that fucking bitch, I cared not for what the other's would think of me, nor did I care if they think its wrong. But I'm going to kill that goddamn whore.

"Stop right their sir, you have interrupted my wedding and you are scaring all the guests including the princesses. I would ask you to leave this place at once, if you dont, I will use force" That mind controlled asshat said, he stood in my way towards Chrysalis and right about now... I was getting tired of being stopped. "I will tell you again, leave at once!" He demanded, unsheathing his sword.

"Walk a mile to avoid a fight... but when one starts... dont back down an inch" I said, coughing a little due to my dry throat. "If you wish to fight, then why dont you try striking me down if you think yourself strong enough" I said, he looked annoyed at what I had said but I kept my contempt look on my face.

"If you ask me to kill you here and now, then I'll gladly oblige!" Shining cried out and went for an above strike, the spectator's watched as Shining went to attack and some of my friends were rushing out of their chairs to get to me. "Die you unholy monster!" He shouted bringing his sword down.

"THOMAS!" Twilight shrieked out in terror.

"Out of my way" I simply said before sidestepping to the right, dodging his attack fluently then I threw the hardest left hook I muster. The moment my fist connected with his cheek, Shining was immediately across the room with his cheek already purple. The others around the room looked on in awe as I still stood infront of them, unscathed from his attack. "You..." I said, pointing at the fake Chrysalis, "I'm gonna kill you" I said and the woman was silent for a solid two minutes until she started laughing.

"Do you honestly believe you can kill someone such as myself you insolent worm?" Chrysalis asked, transforming back to her original form whhich shocked everyone in attendance. "I've already dealt with Celestia as well as Luna, I spun them up in a cocoon of Changeling slime, it's already to later... because you just let my people gain access to the kingdom" Chrysalis said and that's when we heard a loud crash from outside, everyone looked out the windows and saw hordes of those Changeling's outside, the guests all started panicking and rushed out of the room.

"Everyone... protect the people, I'll take care of Chrysalis!" I said much to their surprise.

"You can be serious, how can a weakling like you every hope to compete with someone like me?" Chrysalis mocked, laughing the entire time. "The devil has lost his powers and his body is reduced to pure adrenaline, you have no hope of winning!" She continued though I smiled through her laughter.

"Thomas, she's going to kill you, run!" Twilight shouted.

"Let me and Jay beat her, you need to make sure everyone will be safe while we hold her off!" Jackson said, though I just started laughing.

"Im not telling you because I think I might die, Im telling you, because I cant hold back my anger any longer" I said causing everyone to tremble at my voice. At that moment I could no longer hold back the demons power, it was taking everything I had to hold it back but I cant no longer. "Twilight"

"Y-Yeah?"

"That man in your dream, you said it had my face" I said as I transformed back into to that unholy form, I gave a sigh as I finally released this power. I turned to her and summoned a broken shield and my sword, Twilight covered her mouth in absolute terror seeing me like this. "Guess dreams do come true"
