Everyone in the room was shocked by Twilight's words, especially Cadance, who wouldn't have ever expected them from her after knowing her for so long. Shining Armor almost instantly became hostile, walking up to Twilight to scold her. "I thought I told you-"

Twilight used her magic to zip up Shining Armor's mouth, not wanting to hear him speak for the time being. "I didn't give you permission to have a voice." Twilight shoved Shining Armor aside, leaving him lying down on the floor with only Cadance to help him up. Twilight then stood in front of everyone as she announced yesterday's event. "Yesterday, behind all of your backs, this so called 'Groom', decided that he was going to disown me, in front of all my friends, AND the supposed Princess Celestia, and they all joined him to make me rot!"

The audience gave a quick gasp at the sound of this with Rainbow dash rolling her eyes in annoyance. "Yeah, cause gasping twice at different times helps."

"I'm less upset with you now for that remark;" Twilight began as she looked at Rainbow dash. "It was a nice jab at the gasping we do every day. As for the rest of you, you can entirely rot! The way you all double crossed me for my black hearted brother was utterly ridiculous!" Twilight then turned to her hopefully still friends completely. "But I just want to know one thing." Twilight put on a face of concern, hoping her friends still cared about her. "Why?"

The other main six all looked at each other with regret as Applejack then spoke up. "Twilight, I think I speak for all of us when I say we regret what we did back there. I guess after seeing you do what you did with the whole accusing Cadance thing we just couldn't think to comfort you."

"But that's the thing!" Twilight exclaimed with dissapointment. "We've been friends for at least a year. And I know it doesn't seem like much, but look at it this way. You've all known me longer than Shining Armor, and you know so much more about me than you would about him. If you're going to leave me hanging, then at least try not to look like you despise me."

Cadance used her magic to unzip Shining Armor's lips as he then spoke up. "Twily, I-"

"I DIDN'T SAY YOU COULD TALK!" Twilight snapped as she glared at her brother, making him hide behind Cadance, who was just as shocked as him. Twilight then turned back to her friends with a conflicted expression. "You five have shown me the best qualities out of every friend. And sure we did some pretty excessive things to each other like the Mare do Well thing, still can't believe we actually took that seriously, and the Gala, thought to be fair that was supposed to go wrong, but I still expect you to be there for me when the time comes for it."

Spike ran up to Twilight and hugged him, almost crying upon the words she said. "You Spike, I get. You're too young to make the right choice EVERY time. But the rest of you? What's your excuse?"

Celestia walked up to Twilight with some words in mind about why she left to comfort Cadance. "She's my Niece, and family does come first."

Twilight saw Celestia's point and decided to let her off the hook for joining in. "Fair enough. I'd likely do the same."

Just then, the room turned dark and a dark figure that looked like a black dragon came down from the roof. When he spread out his wings, he revealed himself to have crystal coating and on them, and red scales and claws. He spoke in a devilish and manipulative voice as he walked up to Twilight and the others. "Greetings everyone in the room. My deepest apologies for the sudden entrance, but I personally felt it would be best. Especially considering the occasion."

Celestia started powering up her magic just in case the dragon was a threat. "What do you-" The dragon blasted Celestia with his dark magic and started draining her life. When she lost about a quarter of her life, everyone was shocked, and Celestia then coughed up a bit of blood. "You won't-" The dragon slashed Celestia's throat open and made her spread blood all over the room.

The dragon wiped the blood from his scaled off as he then looked at the shocked and horrified crowd. "That is the power of all darkness, and the now absorbed Chrysalis, in my power. (Looks at Twilight) And you Twilight Sparkle, are the gem I need in order to complete my calling."

Twilight flinched, surprised to see this supposedly strange dragon requesting her help. "Hold on. I don't even know your name. Why would I help you?"

The dragon chuckled devilishly as he then revealed him name to Twilight. "My name is Ryu. (Bows to Twilight) A pleasure to make your acquaintance." Ryu then spoke about his intentions with Twilight. "I'm not going to be taking your life force you lavander colored source of power. I merely wish to make all the light in this world suffer for it's own well being." Ryu then teleported to Shining Armor and extended his claws. "Chaos if you will."

Twilight spoke proudly to Ryu, knowing he couldn't accept his invitation. "Sorry to spoil your fun Ryu, but I won't be joining you any time soon. I have friends and family that all care about me, and I won't leave them behind for anything."

The others gave smiles to Twilight, glad that she's making the right decision. Ryu then chuckled devilishly as he stood up to retort Twilight's words. "Friends? You mean the ones who abandoned you and left you to be isolated just so they could jump onto your brother?"

Twilight flinched upon hearing those words as she then got serious with Ryu, knowing he wasn't on to mess with. She was more than angry about what he was tryingto do, especially after all of the drama that's happened from yesterday to today. She tried to hold in her anger the best she could, and although she spoke calmly, it was pretty clear what she was thinking right now. "What are you getting at?"

"I'm just stating the facts." Ryu declared as he then spoke about how the otheres betrayed Twilight. "It's as you said when they all abandoned you. All they wanted was your brother." Everyone else was shocked by this information as Ryu then continued. "I wouldn't blame you for thinking that either. After all, they did leave you in the coldest manner they could. Heck, I'm surprised it didn't turn into a blizzard with how savage they turned. But honestly, you should be ashamed. For your friendship was all fake!"

Twilight tried to hide her concern, not wanting to buy any of Ryu's words. "You never did get it Twilight Sparkle. The only thing you've learned is that friendship betrays you, and that destruction is all you need. And you got that from a group of five (Fluttershy is shown almost crying) heartless, (Pinkie pie is shown feeling her heart sink) emotionless, (Rarity is shown scoffing at Ryu's words) greedy, (Applejack is shown ready to take on Ryu) lying, (Rainbow dash is shown getting frustrated with Ryu) group of double crossers."

Ryu's words sank hard into Twilight's heart and filled her with the most pain she's ever felt. She held back her tears the best she could, knowing that she couldn't let the others know how betrayed she felt, especially after she'd just guilted them. Ryu was more than aware of her feelings however, and held his claw out with a menacing look. "Join me Twilight. Join me and I'll give you all of the proper treatment you need. Something they purposefully failed to provide you."

Twilight looked down at a terrified Spike, knowing that she couldn't abandon him. At least...not without something to do with his life. She spawned a scroll and handed it to him, looking at him with concern. "If something happens to me, I want you to follow these instructions. It'll lead you to someone who can help you save anyone from the darkness." Twilight shed a tear as she then faced Ryu. "If I'm gonna leave my best friend, and adoptive brother behind, I at least want him to save me if he chooses to."

Spike started crying silently upon those words with Twilight hesitating as she held her hoof out, much to everyone's shock. Ryu smiled with honor as he grabbed Twilight's hoof and then turned her into a dark being, but not before she called over to Spike, who was backing away from her. "Don't forget to travel to the being in the scroll!"

As the last word was shouted, the screen went to white, indicating Twilight's fate.

A campfire was shown with someone throwing a stick into it, with it then showing that it was Rainbow dash. She seemed a bit sour about the whole event, feeling that she was responsible for it. "Well we bucked up."

"Language Rainbow." Applejack reminded Rainbow dash, knowing that it wasn't appropriate at the time. "What we have to focus on now is how we can save Twilight, rather than how we indirectly helped this Ryu character get into her head. I won't lie though. I wish we could take away what we did."

Spike was looking over a cliff as Rarity walked up to him with concern in her voice. "Spike, I hope you know that none of us would've ever intended on what happened to Twilight."

"I know." Spike sighed as he thought about the scroll Twilight gave to him. "I still wanna save her though, and I have to go to whoever this guy is in order to find out why." Spike stood up, determined to save Twilight at any cost. "I'll need at least two of you to come with me though. You up for it?"

"Oh darling, of course." Rarity almost instantly replied. "Of course I have the boutique to look after, but I can always have Owlowiscious look after it for me."

Rainbow dash flew over to Spike, hoping he could joinin too. "Yeah. And I'm sure the other pegasi could take care of whether patrol for me." Spike smiled, glad to see that Rainbow dash and Rarity were on board.

Illustrations were shown as Spike narrated over the adventure he was about to go on. "And so, I left with Rainbow dash and Rarity to find this mysterious being that Twilight let me to." The pegasi were shown taking over whether patrol for Rainbow dash. "A lot's going to change while I'm gone with Rainbow dash and Rarity, but I'll be fine with it to save her." Owlowicious was shown sewing at the boutique. "And I'm not gonna lie, Owlowicious is a pretty good sewer. (Spike is shown wearing a blue scarf) He even made me a scarf for my adventure."

Shining Armor and Cadance were shown talking out what happened at the rehersal as Spike continued narrating. "Shining armor and Cadance decided to postpone the wedding until we came back with Twilight. They decided that if Twilight, the reason they even met to begin with, couldn't be at the wedding, (Shining Armor and Cadance hug each other) then it was best to wait for a later time. (Luna is shown looking up at the sky, aware of her sister's death) I also promised them and Luna come back with Celestia's life restored."

Spike was shown looking at the scroll while he was walking with Rainbow dash and Rarity through the outskirts of Equestria. "This dude also owns a demon hunting shop of sorts, so that's pretty cool. He's also got a kick butt name for it."

A dragon in his teenage years with the same coating as Spike was shown entering his shop in an Equestrian city. He walked up to his desk and sat down when the phone rang, kicking the desk and making the phone fly into his hand. The screen then cut to black as he said these four words. "Devil Dragon May Cry."

Author's Note

So, yeah. This is gonna be followed up by some stories based on Devil May Cry, with this new dragon as the protagonist of them. After some thinking, I decided to make this a prolouge story for some other stories I had planned while writing this. It'll basically show how the characters get to where they are in the future stories, rather than just having them be there with nothing to do. I hope you're all willing to give this follow up stories a shot.
