An stone-cold killer, who treads with a Number One headband, makes his appearance in a magical realm. Bloodbath ensues.

Years of staining his battle grounds in crimson, under the infinite role as the Number One. An never-ending life cycle of viciousness, one could hope to rest from all the sword's edges reaping the violent souls out of his enemies.

Until...

The void takes him. Through time and space, harmony awaits and meets him at last. Although, that doesn't mean chaos is always docile when it comes to the matter of time; that his headband and power attracts god-like beings to confront.

Can Afro Samurai ever have serenity? If so, when does the bloodshed ends?

Only the reflection of his sword could interpret the essence of time will tell.

Prologue

Sitting in the center of the very top of this canyon. Waiting. As time flows, where the Fate itself comes into the edge of the sword and swiftly snare the souls out of fools. Fools who wants to be God, if they can slay the Stone-Cold Killer and retrieve the Number One headband for themselves. Only one could hope, or only one could die trying, perhaps. How many foes did the samurai shed, as the entire land is painted red and then with his name. How many tried, superhumans and scientific-based warriors, to take on the Number One yet still in the end the tables have turned by the flaws been found? Their failures discourages other warriors, the unimaginable suffering thoroughly described by Afro Samurai puts the fear in every wandering soldiers and mercenaries that thought about challenging him.

In the meanwhile, there he is:

Afro Samurai still waiting for anyone to come face him and see how the battle play out. Only if that's the case.

"Shiii-eeet, you listenin' to this Author right now? Being cryptic with the beginning of this story. Everyone else that liked the Dark Devil's ballad still waiting for the new chapter. Cliff-hanging motherfucker," Ninja Ninja took the puff of his cigarette and let out the smoke. He gets a feeling of being watched and looked forward. "Oh! Well, slap my black ass and call me Samuel L. Jackson! Hey, Afro! I'm breaking the Fourth Wall! Ain't this shit the trip?!" He laughs loudly, already losing it over the obvious fact why he's the only one capable of seeing out of this universe. "What the fuck is up now, Deadpool?!"

He finished guffawing while slapping his chest to avoid choking on his smokes, looks out to the readers and say: "Hey folks! Ninja Ninja here just fuckin' around and just about ready to get into this shit rolling, for real." He smirked in amusement, "Somebody else gotta do it! And by the way, Author, don't zap that Sith crap at me. I'm only playin', fool! All's in the good fun." He said with placating hands, watching the sinister yellow-eyed figure staring at him from very far away in outer space as the Author vanished.

"Whoo... that was close...! Anyway, back in the story!" Ninja Ninja clapped as the perspective shift to the Main character.

Afro Samurai's Pov

I noticed the alter-ego of mine speaking to an empty space, asking; "Who are you talking to?"

"Nothing," Ninja Ninja replied coolly. "Don't worry about it, just one of my shtick."

Frowning at his antics, i looked forward once again. Waiting as i usually always do, as the anticipation grows thicker.

"Why don't we hit the club? Everyone else in Japan is bat-shit scared of your prowess, we need to get hammered with the right booze and let some thick hootchies riding on our fat cocks!" Ninja suggested broadly.

"No." I said in a monotonous voice.

"Come on, man!" he let out a frustrated groan. "I've been putting up with your sulking ass, and you still think cooping up here will insure that nobody else is going to jump us. Big deal! You just proved that with acting crazy, so let's just go somewhere and get stupid, I'm cravin' for some strawberry pussies!"

Afro gave him an unamused glare. Although, his face morphed into a contemplative look and questions his idealism of life. He then sighs with a slight defeated look, deep down... admitting Ninja was right.

"Okay."

"Hold up... you serious?" He said, blinking.

I nodded, visibly serious with his request.

He smiled very widely and cheered wildly, started dancing around me.

"Hell to the motherfuckin' yeah! We about to rock that place up and have a fun ass time~ !" He whoops happily.

"Tits and pussies, here we come!"

Watching him run off while laughing excitedly, making me sigh at his behavior.

Well... one party never hurts to try. I've been up here for so long i can only remember.

I get up and started to follow Ninja Ninja, fixing the belt around my waist to make sure my sword stays attached to my side. Who knows what out there still have malicious tendecies just incase. You can never be too careful and vigilant. Aside from that, now furthering onto the club for my mental health's sake.

Until suddenly, the air felt cold. Wind violently picks up, making our clothes drift around.

"What the...? Did those assholes never gave us infos about what the weather forecast supposed to be today?" Ninja asked with an arched eyebrow. Looking up, his face quickly changes into a shock expression. "Fuck me..."

A massive, pitch black void appearing out of nowhere above us. Purple electricity darting everywhere and a strange humming sound emitted from inside the endless space.

To this point, i was as shocked as my alter-ego were right now. What phenomenon warranted itself to come out of the blue? I felt my feet off the ground, whipping my head at this and saw i am rapidly pulled away from earth by the unknown force. Looking back up, i am heading directly to the void.

"Shit!" I exclaimed in trepidation.

Ninja followed along, desperately trying to hang on to anyhing.

"Shit, shit, shit!" He freaked out. "Come on, Chernavader, you know i don't mean what i said back from the beginning," he reached for the nearby bird and clings for his dear life. To his misfortune, only to get pecked in the face and got him off of it. "You feathery bitch!" He seethed, "I hope an eagle put its talons up your sorry ass!" angrily flipped an middle finger at it.

Afro was immediately sucked into a darkness, otherwise meaning he is next.

"Cherna, my man..." he started pleading, "Please don't send me up there to die! I have so much to take all the joy in the and feel that kind of shit giving me a nice rush, PUH-LEASE... don't fucking do this shit to me..."

It was too late, being the second person to be raptured by the portal. Only his last words are:

"FUCK ME SIDEWAAAAAAAYYYYYSSS...!!!

The void itself closes, confusing every living beings on this Earth and then wondered what happened over at Canyons. Later on, an celebration of the Stone-Cold Killer is no longer around anymore.

Equestria, Everfree Forest, Zecora's Pov

Walking around through each of these trees, inspecting any traces of an specific fungus i'm looking for. The kind is called Manticoriais Runtca, very potent if handling lacks of care and it is very purple. Its poisonous spore can kill an Ursa Major by just brushing its body against the trees, and then 20 minutes later; dies. It is vitally important that i do this very gently so the fungi can stay green. The reason for this; i am making a brew for those who had been attacked by an manticore in the past, and for extracting venom at the local hospital with magic only end up exacerbating the whole thing. Magic can do wondrous work, yes, but sometimes venom works in a very different yet volatile way. 78% of ponies died from magical misuse without any toxin retardants, so this is why i'm putting my efforts into this work so nopony should ever have to die without second chances.

Giving this tree a double-check over, and apparently there isn't any. Making her huff in minor frustration.

Damn it... i know i am close. Somewhere when the spot is getting warmer, i'll be collecting them in no time. Applebloom and everypony depends on me. Ancestors help me!

Before i go further, a tremendous quake shook the grounds and the rest of the acres.

BOOOOOOOM!!

"AHH!" I yelped, the force from it wherever it is caused me to slip and fall on my behind. The soil vibrated violently, tickling my back.

For 2 minutes, the quake finally stopped.

She blinks a couple times slowly, and began to get up on her hooves. Staring ahead, with a perplexed look on her face. Thinking:

What on Earth was THAT all about???

Author's Note

Just made another story. Ironically for the fact that i suck at being quick with updating chapters of Umbria because life. Surely you understand that. For shit and giggles, i added context in which Ninja Ninja calls me out, i thought that would be kinda funny though. If not, that's okay.

I'm still working on Umbria. It just takes a lot of delicate details for me to put in there, as much i'm trying not to make the story so damn sloppy like in the past when my "second" story didn't work out so well. I'm sorry the lot of you had to wait for so long and I appreciate your patience. I'll be sure to upload the chapter as soon as possible, if i can.

As for the appearance of Zecora, here what she look like in Anthro version:
