Neither of them could believe it, spike is dead. “Who would do this?” dash asked in shock still trying to come back to reality. “Twilight, she’s behind all of this I just know it” shadow is completely pissed. “We still can’t prove what happened to the king though, that’s the most important part” dash said trying to take her mind off of the loss of spike. “I think we’ve got all we can find here let’s get back to the house and try to piece this together” shadow was ready to solve the mystery. They made their way back to Cloudsdale and started trying to figure the whole thing out. “So let’s go over it one last time. The king comes to ponyville to check on everypony, he makes his first stop at Sweet Apple Acres. According to applejack he left and headed towards twilights house. A few days later he comes up missing and the royal guard begin their search. They come up empty hooved and then suddenly nova appears. You catch twilight leaving rarity’s with a wedding dress which she hides from you. The day of pinkies party you find her at the jewellery store and get the chance to question nova. At the time he didn’t even know his name, all he knew was that he woke up in twilights house one day and that he’s head over hooves in love with her. That night at the party something happened between nova, twilight, cloudkicker, and flitter which resulted in the sisters deaths. Upon investigation of twilight’s house we find boxes of mane and hide dye, an unmarked bottle of pills, a bloody blade, and spike buried in the back yard. With this evidence we can conclude that the king stopped by twilight’s house at some point. Now we must assume that she drugged him, after which she placed him in her bed. Whenever he tried to escape she must have cut him up in order to prevent him from leaving. We still don’t know why spike was killed though, perhaps he witnessed the events. At some point the king’s mane and hide were died meaning………nova six could possibly be the king. If this is true then what I can’t put my hoof on is why he is playing along with twilight. Does he actually love her, or is he under a spell and in love with her against his will?” shadow concluded trying to catch his breath. “We have all the evidence why don’t we take it to Celestia?” dash was ready to take twilight down. “Because babe we don’t have everything, we are missing on important piece, the kings crown. If we manage to find his crown and link twilight to the crime then when can take her down.” Shadow was determined. “So then babe, where do we start looking?” dash had no clue where to start “well that’s the problem, I have no idea”
