It was the morning and I needed to get to work on the personal guard but first I grabbed a book from the shelf magic items and enchantments was the name of the book. I had a idea for my guard and then I felt a presence it my tower that was a uninvited guest. I made my way down stairs as I entered the main chamber where my throne was.

"I know you are here so come out" I yelled as my voice echoed through out the room

"How did you know I was here" I heard the intruder say as he walked out from behind a pillar he was a pony wearing a cloak and it was enchanted.

"The entire tower is enchanted to allow me to sense anyone or thing in here and you don't fool me with that enchanted cloak of yours so I am guessing you are a unicorn and the cloak hides your horn " I said as he looked impressed

"Impressive Not only were you able to see through my cloaks enchantments you also enchanted this entire tower" he said in a respectful voice.

"Trust me it was not easy it took me a whole month to do it also not a bad idea to hide that you are a unicorn in your line of work assassin it will make your targets not suspect that you use magic and make them lower their guard when they think they have you cornered is that what you were hoping to happen here" I said as he looked at me and sighed.

"Yes but how did you know I was a assassin" he said as he got ready to fight.

"Several things actually first the cloak and you snuck in here and the bag of gold on your waist but first" I used the power of my ring to summon my army of gondorian soldiers as they appeared around the room cutting off his escape.

"Don't worry they will only make sure you don't try to escape this is between you and me" I said as I summoned my bound sword I did not want to kill him I wanted to know who sent him to kill me.

He took off his cloak to reveal that he was actually a mare the cloak also hid her gender as well not only that what was most surprising was that she was tempest shadow wearing leather armor and her horn was broken.

Damn she was hot I thought as I got into a battle form.

I charged her with my flying ability and appeared beside he as she jumped forward t dodged my attack charged a attack to her horn even though it was broken it could do some damage as a beam of magic made its way towards me and I blocked. Her magic was very impressive I thought as I threw wraith knifes that exploded with black and green magic as she managed to doge them and she fired another beam of magic that broke through my shield and hit me good thing one of the advantages of being undead I dulled pain some I can barley fell the it if I could fell the full force of it I would be in immense pain though that does not mean I can be carless.

"Your are very skilled" I said with respect.

"You as well" she said with the same tone as me.

she charged me and I was ready I block her with my sword and focused my wraith power into my arm as it felt cold as I punched her and she was thrown backwards as parts of her body had frostbite as she struggled to stand up two of the soldiers grabbed her and made her kneel as I walked forward.

"What are you going to do to me" she asked.

"I'm not going to hurt you" I said as I put my hand on her head as I began to brand her I could fell her resisting but she was no match for me as I felt the link I let go I saw the brand on her check fade but I still felt the connection.

"What is your command master" she said.

"Who hired you to kill me" I said.

"Shining armor of the royal guard" she told me as my eyes widened.

"Thank you for telling me now then lets do something about that horn of yours" her eyes widened as I said that.

"You can fix my horn" She said with tears in her eyes.

"I don't know but I have been working on something I can create you artificial horn that will allow you to use magic but it will take sometime getting used to the artificial horn will be made out of metal and it will cover your entire horn it will have enchantments on it that will allow magic to be channeled through it like another horn and let you use magic I will see about having your horn restored but I can make no promises" I said as she lunged at me and clung to my chest as she cried in my chest. "Its ok" I said as I looked to the soldiers I summand and noticed some of them were smiling.

"Are you guys aware of what's happening" I said as they nodded.

We are unable to talk unless spoken to it is a curse the previous wearier of the ring put on us so we would be obedient servants" he said.

"All of you are dismissed" I said as they disappeared and I was left alone with a sleeping mare in my arms. I took her upstairs and laid her in my bed as I went back down stairs "it would be risky to just tell celestia she might lock her away somewhere or she could try to protect him and I have no proof" I said to myself. "Well now's not the time for that I need to get to work on the guard".

I made my way down to the forge Which was underground next to the storage facility with the metal made by my iron golems. Everything was automated by magic now I needed to supply the information for the armor I want as I sent the information to the forge it started to work and as it finished I stood in front of the armor to get a better look at it

It was made of black metal with a large spear it is back. I started to enchant it and it began to move "You will be the captain of my personal guard" I said as he saluted.

"Yes sir" it said as it walked away

"Now for the personal guard themselves I gave them the ability to use magic as well by carving runes in to the armor on inside their arms. They all stood at attention as I finished enchanting them "Now then what will I do about shining armor" I came up with a brilliant idea I went back to my room to find tempest still sleeping as I took a little of her mane as I chanted a spell and then I teleported to a safe room and dropped it. "It will only take a few hours" I said as I got ready to or my journey to canterlot.


3 hours later


The spell was finished as I was looking at a male version of tempest I changed its memory to where he had the life of a assassin that shining armor hired him to kill me after I stopped he immediately woke up and tried to kill me and I knocked him out dressed him up and put the cloak on him and I teleport us to canterlot.


Location canterlot


I landed in front of the gates and guards were ready to charge me "I need to talk to celestia".

"Why should we" the guards said.

"It seems someone of the guards sent a assassin to kill me" they went wide eyed.

"That impossible no one of the guards would do suck a thing" he said in a angry tone.

"Ok then who would it be then only the guards and celestia know of my location no one else plus I have heard how some of them wanted to storm my city no one else would have the drive to hire a assassin in the first place if they were not their that day" I explained to them as they stood there and puzzled what I said then looked to each other and nodded.

"Ok you will stay here while one of us informs the princess she will decide what to do" they said as one of them walked away.


A few minutes later


The guard came back "she princess will see you now" as he gestured for me to follow him.

We entered the throne room as the celestia was sitting on the throne "what happened" she said as she got up fom her throne.

"My guess someone from your guard sent a assassin to kill me" her eyes widened "I brought him with me since he is one of your pony I thought you would want to deal with this" I said as the male version of tempest fell on the floor.

"Who hired you" celestia said to the clone.

"I won't say" he said as he spat at the princess and I kicked him in the gut.

"I think we should just throw him in the dungeon maybe I few days in their might make him more talkative" I suggested as the princess nodded and the guards took him away.

"I am sorry I will find who sent him" she said.

"Ok I will leave it to you to find out he it was but for now I think I need to talk to you about something" I said.

"What is that" she asked.

"I think we need to get my existence out there so I thought I would go to ponyville and introduce myself to help pony get used to me and allow pony to better accept my city and maybe some will move there" I said.

"I suppose so I will send a letter to my student and inform her of your arrival" she said.

"I guess I will see you at the gala" I said as I left the castle.
