In the forest

I landed in front of the mountains, and I was next to a dense forest. I had thought of a plan that would be a sure fire way to train myself and the first day was going to be the hardest. I walked through the forest until I came upon a large pond. It was such clear water for such a dense forest, but I didn't question it. I stopped and started to summon any energy I could, hoping this would work. I then used both of my hand's index fingers and middle fingers to form a cross. I continued to summon my energy and used it for my first try at a new technique, but I wasn’t sure if I could use chakra. I closed my eyes as I tried to focus my energy to try and use a jutsu. After a few seconds, I felt energy moving inside me, and I started to "Shadow Clone Jutsu!" With a burst of smoke around me, I saw ten shadow clones that looked exactly like me and seemed to have quite a bit of energy themselves. I was glad that just focusing my chakra I was able to summon the clones. I figured this would work because I had the sharingan, which runs on chakra. So I should be able to do all of the Jutsu's from Naruto as long as I know the hand signs or how they work. I still felt full of energy, so I decided to summon more shadow clones. I repeated the same process as before, but this time I now had 60 shadow clones. I wasn't aiming for that much, which tells me some of the training I need to do. I sighed as I looked around and thought about what training should be done first. "Alright, break into to teams of ten so that we can get as much out of training before we do anything else, doing this will allow me to understand the limits of this body so, men! get in your teams!"

"SIR!"

I then gave each group a letter. "Group A will be training our chakra control! Do so by climbing trees and once you feel comfortable with walking up trees move on to walking on water. This will help get us control over our chakra." I told them, and they all nodded and rushed off. I then looked to group B. "I want group B to work on any Justus that they might be able to do. Chakra control is low right now, but just try putting enough energy into it!" I told them, and they saluted me before they rushed off. "Group C!"
I started. "I want you to figure out all of our Sharingan powers and how to control them. The best we can do right now is seeing energy. I'm sure we can also copy movements easily enough, but I want to know if we have all the Sharingan powers. Practice on one another if you must, but be careful. I don't want you burning this forest down." I told them, and they all left instantly. I looked towards the next group. "Group D is responsible for starting on our hand to hand combat. I want you ten to practice on one another and feel free to use as much power as you can, but be sure to keep to only hand to hand. No chakra or any powers of any kind. Understood?" I asked the group.

"Yes, Sir!"

They shouted and ran off in a different direction than the others. I looked towards group E. "Your group is going to be responsible for testing our many different powers. They can be whatever you want as long as they are different from what everyone else is doing. One of you will be preparing lunch and dinner. One of you is more than capable of that, but decided amongst yourselves who is going where and doing what." I believe we will be able to open the eight inner gates." I told them, and all of them became serious. "We all know how dangerous this is, but I believe it to be best to learn how to use both the eight inner gates and our demon forms."

"Sir!"

Two weeks past as I trained and use my clones to pulled a house beside the pond in the forest. Thanks to having my clones fight and train with each other every day help me learn what powers I had and skills. I could use Meliodas demon for along with his brothers. I could use two of the strengths of Rinnegan, the Deva Path this path grants control over retractive and repulsive forces and the Human Path which allows me to remove someone’s or somethings soul and read their mind, killing them in the process. I had also found I had most of the sharingan forms but Madara's eternal mangekyou sharingan. I learned I could also use the eight inner gates like I was hoping for. I had also made contact with a kind zebra named Zecora in the deeper part of the forest when a group of my clones and I were testing the weapons I had on me. She walked up on us when I was learning to use full counter within my option was the best power for me as being able to reflect both magic and physical strength was too much of an advantage.

"Sir, we have found ponies in the forest."

One of my clones appeared, and I looked at him. "What do they look like?"

"They appear three ponies in the forest, A group is watching over them in case something happened. All of them appear to be grown but were not sure but seem to be slightly younger than the ones you've met before. There is one earth pony, a unicorn pony, and a pegasus pony. The earth pony was dressed in overalls with a green shirt on under. The unicorn pony is wearing a dress, the last pony is the Pegasus but we've noticed her clothes are much older then the of two and she seems to be malnourished if the way some of her bones are showing."

I looked up at the sky and saw the sun was starting to set and the bigger monsters would be coming out soon. "Dispel yourself to deliver this message. All clones but one of A group then bring them here, and I will personally take them home in the morning when it's safer or if their closer to the town take them to the edge of the forest." He bowed then dispelled himself, I walked to my kitchen and started dinner guessing the children with be hungry when they arrive.

Meliodas clone pov

A clone form the defense group had dispelled himself, and a message was sent to us. We were to bring the girls to the bosses because it wasn't safe for them to stay in this forest at night. "Guys, dispel yourselves, and I'll take the girls again then bring them back to the master house." They nodded as they dispel themselves, I got the location from the last clone and started to move to the deeper part of the forest were the bigger monsters hang out.

"AH!"

I heard a scream, and I launched myself from the tree I was in as I did I saw a star bear standing in front of the girls. I activated Obito mangekyou sharingan as I landed between them and the beast. "You'll be instrumental to my animal path." I used the Sharingan's powers to sent the bear to my Kamui dimension. Once the bear was sealed in my Kamui dimension, I turned around and looked at the three who had started cowering as I look down at them. I smiled as I kneeled down and held a hand out to them. "Boss sent me to save you all now, come with me and let's get you all something to eat." They nodded as they stood up and followed me, and I could hear them talking behind me.

"Why isn't he wearing a collar like the rest of the stallions?"

Meliodas pov

I had made fried vegetables, and a vegan pizza then I made roasted manticore meat for myself with ground chilly peppers for so flavor to the meat. I had set the table and waited for my clone to bring the ponies. As I waited for them, I saw something out of my Rinnegan as I looked out of the open bay window. Two massive powers in some kind of carriage. But, they were moving through the body quickly. The two energies were inside one of the body, but they were too close together for me to tell which is the dominant power of the body. "I wonder why I haven't since these two before now." I watched as the energies moved over the forest, and I watched as it headed for a town clone team C found a week into their training. They had spotted both Twilight and Applejack on the edge of the town doing something with a group of ponies as they call themselves.

"Hey, boss!"

I snapped out of my thoughts as I looked over to the edge of the forest and saw my clone with the girls. "Ah, finally I thought that something had destroyed you or maybe you just decided to lead them back to the town." He nodded as he Dispeled himself scaring the girls behind him. I gained his memories and learned that males in this world wear collars for some reason. I walked over to the girls, and they backed up as I walked up to them. "Please come In I've made you all dinner and there a hot spring with a large fence to keep you say if you wish to bath, but I ask you eat first." I saw the white pony looking around as if something was missing. I walked up to her as she looked around. "What are you looking for." She looked into my eyes, as she frowned.

"Where are the mares who own you?"

I blinked as I looked at her, then I scratched my head as they watched me. "I'm not or will I ever be own by anyone." They looked at me, and the orange one crossed her arms.

"A male that talks back maybe we need to report you to the retraining center
in town."

I smiled as I looked at her. "If you want you can but, when they come, I'll just have to retrain them." They all flinched a little of my threat clearly not used to hearing one from a male if the way their talking meant the males were undoubtedly lower then the females. I sighed then placed my hands behind my back as I looked at them. "Look, my clone brought you here because this forest is a death trap at night. But, if you think you can sneak past the monsters then feel free to take your chances. Or you can stay here, and wait out the night and get a hot meal." The orange's ears pointed up at the mention of free food. They looked back to the forest then back at me. The yellow furred pony put up her fist as she tried to look intimidating.

"I-if you try anything then..."

I shot forward and stood before her a kunai at her throat. "I'm the sin of wrath child, do not think you can stand before me as an equal." She dropped to the ground caught off guard by my speed. I spun the kunai on my right index finger as I looked down at her, a smile on my face. "Get inside ladies and all this." I waved my hand between me the pony on the ground. "Didn't happen, and I will overlook the threat your friend made." She nodded her head as I threw the kunai into a tree behind me. When I walked up to my house, I could hear them talking, but I didn't care as to what the were talking about. I left my door open for them if they decide to do the smart thing and stay the night. I sat in the kitchen as I waited for them to make their choice. I expected them to come inside, I looked out the window and noticed something again. An energy source was from deep inside the forest, but something was off. Usually, energy followed smoothly inside a body, but this energy didn't seem to be the case. This energy appeared to be moving all by itself without a body to house it.

“What kind of food did you make?”

I looked back at the doorway and saw the group standing with somewhat worried looks on their faces. I nodded down to the table for them to see what I made for them. The orange one looked at the food, and I could tell by the way her eyes stared at the food she hadn't eaten a good meal in a long time. "Please sit I promise no harm will come to any of you, and I can also guarantee you a warm and safe place to sleep for the night." The slowly nodded but still stood in the doorway. I sighed then stood from the table and created a shadow clone shocking them. "I have to look into something, so my clone will stay here with you. If you need anything just ask him and he will happily provide you with help." I walked past them and pushed them into the dining room. "Now, you all go eat I'm going to check something out." They walked into the dining room, but the unicorn looked at me.

“Why are you doing this? We don’t know you, and you don’t know us.”

I pushed them in as I answered her. “I’m a former holy knight so just doing stuff like this is what I used to do day in and day out.”

“You were a knight!?”

I smiled as I I rubbed the side of my head. “Ya, before coming here I was known as meliodas the dragon sin of Wrath and captain of the seven deadly sins knight order.”

"Cool! Do you know how to wield a sword too!?"

I laughed then nodded my head. “Yes, and I can use magic as well.” I turned as she looked at me, and I summoned chastiefol to my side. I also grabbed Lostvayne and Estarossa’s sword. ‘I want to know who’s giving off that power. “I'll be back soon,” I spoke as I walked out of the house Chastiefol following ready to attack. When out I looked over to where I first saw the energy and saw of had faded all entirely away. ‘Interesting.’ I used king's power of flight to float up into the air to get a look around. I saw the energy was flowing out of the abandoned castle in the forest. ‘Who could be there, and why didn't my clones spot whoever it was in there.’ I started to fly to the castle to see was there and what they were up to.

Luna pov

"Sister, why are we going to ponyville over one male? Surely a guards mare can handle him in a few seconds." I looked at my sister as she looked out the window of the carriage. She seemed upset as she looked over the forest.

"No Luna, regular guards wouldn't be able to handle this male. Mares are five times stronger then stallions but over the last three hundred years males that are as strong as mares. It's very rare, only one out of a few hundred thousand are as strong as a mare. In all, I know of six in Equestria's history. Not only that but Twilight's latter said that he killed a hydra with two strikes, it takes fifty mares to kill a hydra, and he did it alone with two strikes. This male could be a threat if we don't hurry and use magic to lock his powers away."

"Sister, why did we even let mares own stallions we could always just locked them in the male brothel. You know may mares go to them even if their herd owns stallions." Celestia laughed as she looked out the window.

"True Luna, but you know as well as I that eight hundred years ago I was tricked into sighing the right to herd stock law. As long as that law is in effect, we can't touch stallions in a herd, so all stallions in brothels is not an option right now."

"Right, but what about the free ones you know the ones that law also protects. It's very rare but stallions who can defeat the herd mare of the herd that bought him we have to grant him freedom as we as any sons he has." Celestia huffed as she looked at me for the first time.

"I know I can't believe I signed that. At first, I thought the last noble stallion was kidding, but I was wrong. But, we made a deal that day that if he could win a fight like he proposed in law, I would sign it. Never did I think he won the match but I had given my word, so I had to sign it once he won. But, that is neither here nor there Luna. No stallion has managed to win a fight against a mare in eight years, so I'm not too worried about to happing again anytime soon."

I nodded as I crossed my legs then as I waited to land pain shot through my chest. I grabbed my chest as I fell to the carriage floor.

"Luna!"

Celestia dropped to my side as I heard her voice again. I looked down at my chest as the pain moved down my chest to my stomach then a ball of magic formed and shot out of my body. The ball shot out of my stomach, and the pain was gone as I blacked out.

Meliodas pov

I landed outside the castle then looked around to find where that energy was coming from. I saw the trail following from the far inside of the castle, and I narrowed my eyes when I saw what I could only describe as a pile of energy. "Strange." I walked through the castle looking around that the destroyed palace. The old stone was cracked and fallen in on itself, with old torn banners hanging on the walls. I saw the energy pile in front of me in what looked like a large room. I walked into what looked like a battle-torn throne room if the two large stone chairs at the back were thrones like I thought they were. In the middle of the room was a set of shattered armor. I walked over to it then the energy around it started to flow around me, and I saw the shadows in the room moving.

"Mommy is that you?"

I stopped as I looked over at the shadows as they formed a small body with white eyes looking at me with sadness. The child was about three an half feet tall and had a shadow horn, and I think wings on her back.

"You're not my mommy, I want my mommy back it's scary here."

From the voice, it sounded like a young girl who sounded scared. She had the basic body of a young child, but the hair and tail on the shadow flowed as if the wind was blowing around her. I smiled as I dropped to one knee and looked at me. "Sorry sweetheart, I don't know who your mommy I'm just can to see who was here when I saw energy in the air. I found you after that, but I have to ask why are you made of shadows sweetheart?" The girl looked down at the ground.

"I was taken from my mommy by six mares when they attacked me."

"Why did they do that?"

She girl walked a closer to me as we talked and she now stood in front of me her fear of me gone.

"I wanted all the ponies of Equestria to love my mommy's night as much as Celestia's day. When mommy was very sad, I thought if I made the night last forever then they would love it like they did the day. Then I got into a fight with Celestia, and she sent mommy and me to the moon for a thousand years then when we came back they stole mommy from me, and I lost my body when they did. I was left with only my magic and my shadow magic."

I felt my heart go out to the young girl then a thought crossed my mind. I turned and looked at the armor to see if there was any hair of blood on it anything that may have DNA. "Please be something here anything with DNA will do anything." I grabbed the helmet and smiled when I saw a few hairs inside it. 'Yes. this is half now I just need a living sacrifice.' I stood up and made a hand sign. "Shadow Clone Jutsu!" A clone of me buffed into existence, and I gave him an order. "Go into the forest and catch on of those dogs that attacked us three days into our training."

"Sir!"

He ran out of the room leaving the girl and me alone. I sat down, and she looked at me her head leaned to the right side.

"What are you doing?"

I smiled as I waved her over. She walked over to me, and I started to explain. "I'm going to make you a body for you seeing as you don't have one. Once we have that done, you'll come home with me tonight then tomorrow well go into the town outside the forest to see if we can find your mommy."

"Really!"

The girl jumped up an down happily as I laughed. We waited a good hour until till my clone ran in the smallest of the three dogs. The dog was out cold, but I could see he was still breathing. I nodded then my clone vanished in a puff of smoke.

"What are you going to do with him?"

I looked back at the girl and smiled. "He's an evil person sweetheart, he attacked me and tried to make me a slave. But, now he's going to do something good by helping you get a new body."

"Ok, but will he be ok after that?"

"Yes." I lied and looked back at the dog. "Ok, let's do this." I clapped my hands then slammed my hands on the ground, and the hair in my hands moved into his body. Paper started to cover his body, and a pony body began to form. I saw no clothes were forming with the body, so I pulled my shirt I got from Zecora and threw the shirt over the body as it finished constructing itself. The body was of a very young girl, or I guess I should call her a filly is she's a young mare. Her body fur was black as a starless night with both wings and a horn which I hadn't seen on a pony yet. Her hair was a shade of dark blue, and her tail was a mix of black and blue making a beautiful tone of blue.

"That kind of looks like me but a lot smaller. But, how am I going to..."

Before she could say anything else a ball of energy shot through a broken window and headed right for the body on the ground. I grabbed the body then jumped away when the ball hit the ground where the body was.

"Give me that body you foolish stallion!"

A larger version of the filly in my arms appeared. The one was different from the filly. She was by far the largest mare I've seen in all areas, but she had a darkness in her cat-like eyes that told me she didn't need to get her hands on the filly body I was holding. I quickly looked around the room and saw the shadow filly form was gone from sight, but I could still see her energy. It was as far from this pony, no this soul if I had to guess. "This is going to a filly who needs it, and I can tell by your eyes your definitely not someone I want getting a new body." She clinched the hands she had, and they started to shine.

"I told you I...Want...that ...BODY!"

She lunged at me and tried to grab the body. I jumped from my place on the ground and moved chakra to my feet. I landed on the ceiling with the shadow filly's energy moved to stay behind me. 'I have to end this fast.' I jumped behind the soul and grabbed hold of her then used the human path on her, and she screamed as I forced her down to the ground and as she moved to the ground she turned back into a smaller ball. "Be gone." I crushed the ball and learned a few things as I absorbed the soul. She and the filly were the same individual, but each had two separate entities altogether. The filly Nightmare Moon is the entity of Princess Luna's fears and insecurities of both herself and of her seemingly fruitless efforts at making ponies love the night. The grown Nightmare Moon was her entity of angry, hatred and jealousy towards her sister for the ponies loving her day. Only playing in her day, plainly have fun in the daytime, for her entire life only seeing ponies happy under the sun. 'Whoa, this mare was and is still very lonely. I wonder if I can befriend her, so she's not as lonely.

"Sir?"

I turned and looked at the shadow filly. I smiled as I lowered the filly to the ground then put a hand on the shadow filly's head. "Ok, let's get you inside this body." I used the human path again and pulled a soul out of the shadow and placed it inside the filly. When I let her go the body shook, and energy started to flow around the body as I saw the eyes of the filly opened her eyes. Her eyes were a sky blue, and like the larger Nightmare Moon, she had blue cat eyes.

"I'm alive again."

She tried to sit up but fell back down. "Don't try to move too much for a little while Sweetheart. The new body will need a short amount of time to get used to the new soul inside it." She nodded then blushed as she saw my shirt was falling to one side.

"Can you help me put this shirt on?"

I was a little caught off guard then nodded. I closed my eyes as I grabbed her by her shoulders and leaned her up. "Put the shirt on my me and then hold your arms up."

"Ok, here you go mister."

She put the bottom of the shirt in my hand as I felt her mover her arms up above her head. I felt around in the air for a second then found her right forearm. 'Ok.' I lifted the shirt and pulled it down around her and all the way to the floor. I opened my eyes and looked down at her. She smiled back up at me, and I smiled then picked her up. "Let's get you back to my house and get some food in you, so you have the strength to hug your mommy to death tomorrow."

"Yay!"

I laughed as she cheered and kicked her legs as I started to walk us out but stopped when I looked at the throne room door. The lady of the Night stood in the doorway with a damascus long sword in her left hand and in her right was a short sword in the right. She was dressed in a long blue dress with a hole over where her womb would be. Her hair looked as if the night was attached to her head and tail.

"MOMMY!"

I saw her horn glowing and had an idea of what was coming. She sent a stream of magic at us, and I jumped at the side as she opened her wings and "Sweetheart I think she may not want to talk right now."

"How are you here and what did you do to me!?"

I keep one step away from her, and I was using my Sharingan to analyze her movements and waited for the right moment. After ten more strikes, I had her moves memorized. I jumped forward and grabbed her right hand then stomped the butt of the longsword, and the blade stabbed into the ground. I swung her arm around and slammed her into the ground. She dropped and short sword as she laid on her back.

"How did you!?"

I pinned her arms with my knees, and the filly in my arms unwrapped her arms from around my neck then looked at her. She started to struggle as I had her pinned. I quickly looked over her body, and I nodded that she had a double d cup chest size. 'She's about a size an half larger than most mares I or my clones have seen.'

"Mommy are you ok?"

Luna looked up at her and stopped she looked at her as she stood beside me.

"Why are you taking the form of a filly Nightmare!?"

She flinched and hid behind me which seemed to surprise her. "Miss, I used an ability of mine to absorb the evil side of Nightmare." She looked at me, and her horn started to glow again. I grabbed her horn then started to bend it to the side. The glow stopped, and she looked up at me. "Miss, please don't try that again I really don't want to break this if you decide to use magic again. Now, I'm going to move now please just have a calm conversation with This little sweetheart. But, if I see you about to hurt her, I'll send you flying through a wall." The filly grabbed the side of my pants, and I looked down at her.

"Please don't hurt my mommy anymore."

"Ok, I promise I won't."

I got off her arms so she could get up from her place on the ground. Luna jumped to her hoofs and looked at the two of us. She focused on the good Nightmare who was holding onto my pants leg as she looked at her.

"I don't understand, how are you even alive the elements destroyed you. So, how can you still be standing here?"

Nightmare filly let go of my pants before running over to Luna and jumped onto her. She wrapped her arms around her neck, and Luna's hand shot out to try and grab the short sword but stopped when she saw Nightmare was trying to hurt her.

"Mommy, I'm so happy to see you again."

Luna looked down at her as she struggled into Luna's body. Luna slowly wrapped an arm around her, but I could see it. She was very hesitant to even touch her. I smiled as I walked over and took the blade from the ground then stabbed it into the ground right beside her. She looked at me as I moved a few steps back and sat down on the ground.

“Who are you?”

“I’m Meliodas former holy knight and the captain of the order of the seven deadly sins my sin was of wrath the dragon sin.” They both looked at me shock on both their faces.

“A male knight!? How!?”

I stick my tongue out then heard the sound of what must be hooves running on stone. I jumped in front of the two ponies on the ground as a yellow of stream what must be magic destroyed the door and headed straight for me. I crossed my arms to take the attack rather than show anyone my full countermagic. The magic slammed into my arms, and I felt my arms burning.

"Mister Meliodas!"

I dropped to one knee keeping my act up as I smelled burnt flesh. "That burned a little." I turned my head and looked at the two behind me. "You two ok?"

"Y-yes, but your arms."

I smiled as I started to use my darkness. "What about them?" My darkness spread across my whole body both their eyes widened as I stopped my darkness and the burns were gone. I stood back up and cracked my body as I looked forward. The group I meet in two weeks ago stood in front of me with a new and large mare in the front. She was a little bigger than Luna everything about a size bigger. She had white fur with a mane I think it's called. It was made of four colors, and her tail was the same color scheme. It when from blue, green a very light blue ending with a shade of pink at the end. She was in a long white dress that showed her right leg all the way up to her though. She had a golden halberd in her hands, it had a large axe blade on the front then besides the main spear point were six points that looked like they were made to be used to slice someone if she missed with a stab.

"Luna are you ok?"

I moved to the side when I heard Luna stand up behind me. She walked past be Nightmare in her arms as she stood beside in front of the mare.

"Fine sister but 'He' is somepony we'll have to take with us."

"Ya, come with us Mister Meliodas! You made me a new body, and you can be my daddy."

'Nope!' I started to walk backward as I noticed the white starting to lift her halberd higher. "Sorry sweetheart but I'm not going anywhere with your mommy or the other one there. Now, with all you here I don't have to worry about the three my shadow clone found in the forest. There at my house near a large pond about a mile to the east. I left them with food, and safe with one of my clones to protect them." I turned before they could stop me and jumped through a hole in the roof shocking the two larger mares. 'Ok going deeper into the forest won't help this time. Maybe I should go to the mountains this time.'
