“Hey little bro it’s ti-” Shadow Chaser started to say as he walked in his brother’s room only to see his brother hanging form a noose while a large monster grinned in delight.

As soon as the monster noticed Shadow Chaser it bared it’s jagged teeth of deep purple, the thing slowly walked to him as it’s navy blue, magma red wrinkled with each movement, it’s bright red eyes shone in the sea of vantablack, each step of this creature made Shadow Chaser more scared of it as it stretched it’s navy blue claws of it’s magma red hands while the bat-like wings were visible with a translucent magma red membrane and navy blue frame.

“Hello there, do you like my masterpiece? I did it all by myself” The monster said in a demonic voice.

“W-what are you? And What the fuck did you do to my brother?” Shadow Chaser asked.

“Isn’t it obvious? I’m a demon and I drove him to kill himself” The demon replied with a grin as it paced to Shadow Chaser who immediately ran to the kitchen and grabbed a large kitchen knife to defend himself with.

Shadow Chaser’s bronze hair was drenched in sweat as he tried to hide with his key lime colored skin shook in fright as his bright azure eyes were searching around frantically.

“Found you” The demon said as it manifested in front of Shadow Chaser, grabbed the lower part of his right arm, dug their claws into it, causing Shadow Chaser to drop the knife and scream in agony.

“W-why are you doing this?” Shadow Chaser cried.

“Because it’s fun, I love torturing people” The demon replied as he howled in laughter with a massive grin on it’s face.

While the demon was distracted Shadow Chaser grabbed the knife with his other hand and stabbed the demon in the arm causing a navy purple substance to flow out as Shadow Chaser yanked the knife out and thrusted the blade into one of the demon’s eye. With this the demon shrieked in pain as it let go of Shadow Chaser’s arm while holding it’s eye and vanished. While Shadow Chaser sat on the floor crying he felt a tingling sensation that turned into a raging burning pain as if someone was stabbing him allover his body with knives that were covered in lava.

Hearing the screams of Shadow Chaser in pain caused his neighbors to call emergency services who showed up at his door, broke it down, however what they found was Shadow Chaser’s brother’s lifeless body hanging from the ceiling as Shadow Chaser passed out in a pool of his own blood, clutching a knife that had some purple substance on it and five gashes in his right arm. Shadow Chaser then woke up in a hospital bed with scars covering his right arm, he handcuffed as he was a suspect in his brother’s death. The police then asked what had happened as he was the only one alive at the scene.

Shadow Chaser proceeded to explain what had happened and after several more questions the police decided that he was not a suspect and that his brother had taken his own life, hey also thought that someone broken in and Shadow Chaser had interpreted as a supposed demon.

Shortly after the funeral of Shadow Chaser’s brother Shadow Chaser moved to Equestria city to live in a one bed, one bath apartment that he was able to afford with the inheritance money he would get from their parents who had died when Shadow Chaser was in fifteen. However he used to live with his brother since his passing it was just Shadow Chaser who had turned sixteen and learned how to drive a few weeks earlier was now on his own with no family in a place he now called home. But since he encountered that demon and found out that is was the one who killed his brother has decided to use his money on equipment for dealing with supernatural entities, mainly demons and other evil spirits.

Shadow Chaser had hired a blacksmith to forge some weapons that he uses against demons and alike. There’s a blessed iron saber that was forged using holy items, white sage, salt, a hilt that has three white quartz in it and a quartz crystal as the pummel with the inscription of the name Jesus engraved in the blade; a cross bow that fires wooden stakes tipped with silver; and all sorts of katanas and machetes. Shadow Chaser has also been trained by monks of different religions and magic techniques, one of which is Holy Fire, an attack that can also heal wounds and Pocket Dimension, an ability that allows him to keep all his items and he also uses it to travel through the world as one minute in there is a second in the main world. Shadow Chaser’s main vehicle of choice is a motorcycle but if needed he can drive a truck.

Shadow Chaser woke up around six AM so he could begin his daily routine of checking the crystals, getting dressed for the day then eating breakfast and finally going to school. Shadow Chaser usually wore a dark gray hoodie with an iron cross, brown t-shirt, blue jeans with red and black shoes. After doing his routine Shadow Chaser decided to take his motorcycle to school and walked out of the building to the nearby parking lot when a group of about four thugs approached him.

“...Can I help you with something?” Shadow Chaser asked.

“Yea, by giving us all your money!” One of the thugs in front of Shadow Chaser demanded.

“And why should I?” Shadow Chaser replied clearly not fazed by the fact that he was out numbered.

“Because if you don’t we’ll cut you up real good” Another one of the thugs said as the four men brandished their knives.

“Okay and?” Shadow Chaser replied as the four thugs got infuriated and rushed at Shadow Chaser who just punched him, causing him to be sent across the street with his scared right arm.

“What the?” A thug shouted.

“Oh oops sorry dude, didn’t mean to punch you that hard” Shadow Chaser apologized.

“Dude I ain’t fucking with no strong man” A thug said as he ran away leaving two thugs with Shadow Chaser.

“Yea me neither, wait up!” Another thug added as he ran after the second thug.

“Well then I suppose this is your turn to scram” Shadow Chaser said as the last thug ran away as well.

Shadow Chaser shrugged as he walked to his motorcycle and drove to Canterlot Highschool.
