chapter 1: the Bray-Shaman comes

Author's Note

ok so a few notes:

i am using not only english but all so some of the warhammer languages (mostly the chaos dark tongue).

this will help you with the chaos dark tongue:

to read it replace a letter from the first column to the second column and vice versa. for example: Akhash-blood or You go now, kill man-Qwe Sho Baah, Yuizz Mah.

all so i advise to go to lingojam for a translator of the dark tongue if you want but it will work on some words not all of them some words you need to use the chaos runes tablet.

you don't need to know the language but if you want to know how the beastman of chaos talks then have fun, it toke me like a week to understand it and half a week to do sentences.

chapter 1: the Bray-Shaman comes

Inevitable city,Chaos Wastes-the old world:

In the heart of the umbral chaotica were chaos is all its stands the nexus of the gods the inevitable city,Built of dark madness and inspired by its architects this city is a hub for all the servants of chaos. The Inevitable City first looms on the horizon, standing like a jagged wound against a slate-grey sky. The City plays tricks on the eyes, sometimes seeming as if it is remarkably close, then far away, thus making it impossible to determine the distance. It exudes a brooding evil, with gates shaped like gaping maws. The Inevitable City is covered in a black dust that resists all attempts to be brushed or washed away. the streets and halls of the Inevitable City seem lonely, it actually hosts a large number of beings. The souls of the cursed, or those that stumbled inside, eternally wander its desolation, desperate for a way out. Disembodied forms plead and beg for guidance, while others claim to know the way to the City's exit but ultimately lead those that follower deeper into its walls and farther from any way of leaving. it is a symbol of all that is lost, and the plight of those that find themselves in desperate situations with no way out. Its illusions and mazes have a way of returning a traveller back to the same location, regardless of what route he takes. Scholars believe the Inevitable City is a living metaphor for the downward spiral that the lure of Chaos represents, for once you walk down the dark path there is no hope of return.

In one of the dark towers of the city a lone figure sitting on a chair next to fireplace of blue flame,above him was an eye ornament that looks like it was looking at anyone that enter. suddenly the eye opened and started to whisper, the lone figure looked at the door he was cover in robes but you can tell he is smiling and then he grab a large book from his shelf and return to his chair and started to talk.

"Greetings i see you found my tower then you are here for my story correct,you don't need to answer what other purpose for you to be here if not for the story or you where curious about the new story. are you so surprised we know this we are in the realm of chaos in the great Inevitable city you know the saying "all roads lead to the Inevitable city in the end". but i digress you are here for a story and you shell get one". the lone figure said.

the lone figure open the large book when that happened the book started to scream for a few seconds then it stop and the lone figure started to talk again.

"Before we begin allow me to introduce myself i can't tell you my real name for if you hear it you will go mad and die so you may call me lore seeker voice of the dark gods". lore seeker said.

"I see you were looking at my book yes, its a gift from an old friend of my Necrodomo the Insane you know him the one that saw the coming of the "Three-Eyed King" but that is a story not yet to happened." lore seeker said.

"Lets see lets see ah found it now before we began tell me what do you know of the ones called cloven ones?,you don't need to answer you can't i will tell you about them. The origins of the Beastmen is tied closely with the origins of Mankind itself. Indeed, long before the collapse of the Northern and Southern poles, there was no such thing as a Beastmen living within the world of that ancient age. By this time, Mankind was still a fledgling and unknown race, still confined to lands far from the reaches of the ancient civilisations of the dwarfs and elves. the old ones, ancient beings of incredible power had watched like a guardian upon this fledgling world, staving off the undesirable races and seeding the world with the first true forms of life. However, a catastrophic event had occurred in an unknown point in time that has since cursed the World to its inevitable damnation. now what this have to do with beastman well we will get to that now i will tell some words about them from the Bestiarie Malificent.

"I looked up into the sky and there I saw my doom, lithesome yet dread. What creatures were these? How many tortures would I endure before peace was mine? A thousand wretched forms united only by a hatred that never ends. Malign and savage to the last, they brim with bitterness for the works of Man."

So you see the beastman hate all things man now what will happened when a beastman will find him self in a land like this only with no man but ponies acting like man?, well that is why we are here to tell the story of such beastman is name was ezra clovenblight first beastlord of equestria and bane of harmony". lore seeker said.

"Now let us begin our story starts in the old world 2355 IC in the forest of shadows".

Forest of Shadows-the old world:

Near the river Talabec a few hunters walk to hunt game when they spot the prize a stag drinking from the water. The hunters ready their bows when one of the hunters hear a sound, "did you hear that?,aye it came from the woods". The hunters spoke to each other.

In a split second a arrow hit one of the hunters in the head. "Ambush!", the hunter call but it was to late the rest of the hunters where dead full of arrows. The last hunter tried to escape but he fell to the ground only to see a half man half beast standing next to him, what came after that was only screams.

The beastman grabbed the hunters corpses and head back to the Beast-Paths in the forest. After a few hours the beastman return to the warherd, a great feast was occurring during that time to celebrate the coming of Morrslieb and one of the bray shamans of the tribe return from a pilgrimage in the umbral chaotica.

This was no ordinary Bray-Shaman he was a Greater Bray-Shaman marked by the four gods of chaos and he was old very old second to the Crowfather him self.

is appearance was twisted from all the time he spent in the chaos wastes. his body was scared and his skin bleed from time to time from to much magic, but is was a small prize to pay.

when he walk around the camp he saw his kin and felt disgraced by them and he began to talk to him self.

"hshmzh phshndhf mah, to think we are all cloven ones they sit and drink all day and all most not even raiding. When i was in the place of birth of chaos i saw true beastman not like my herd. I even learned the language of man to know what they think but all of this will be a waste if i stay here". The shaman said.

In the same night when the shaman was tending to the herdstone he was starting to hear strange noise calling him.

"huuak mchsh ighak" the shaman said.

"I am but a friend to you cloven ones and to you, the gods have heard your plea to seek new fronts to spread the word of chaos in their name. They saw great things in your path ezra clovenblight Greater Bray-Shaman of chaos". The stranger said to ezra

"what must i do?". Ezra asked.

"You must first travel to Zorn Uzkul in the Dark Lands of the Uzkul-Dhrazh-Zharr, in that blasted land find a place called the crucible of dismay when you find it we will talk more". The stranger said and vanish to thin air.

And so the Bray-Shaman ezra clovenblight left is warherd that night to the dark lands to find his destiny.

The journey to the dark lands was hard an ordeal unlike any other, ezra had two ways of travel the first is by the mountains of the north world edge mountains it was shorter but full of man,dwarfs and greenskins. The second is longer but its used by chaos cultists that travel to Pigbarter along side ogre maneters using the Ivory Road . In the journey to Pigbarter they did battle with feral wolves,spiders,goblins,orcs, trolls and even a giant. After the long journey they all most reach gnoblar country but they had to first pay some toll to a skaven outpost in the Mad Dog Pass for save passage under the mountain of Crookback Mountain of clan Rictus. When the group reach gnoblar country the beastman Shaman part ways with the group of chaos worshipers and he continued to his destiny at Zorn Uzkul.

the dark lands-old world:

"40 days i am in travel and noting stop me and this blasted land will not stop me neither". Ezra said as he walk in the dead sands of the dark lands.

As he walk in the plains of the Great Skull Land a warcry was heard from the cliffs and a band of hobgoblins came down pointing spears at the Shaman. With a crooked smile the hobgoblin boss began to talk to the Bray-Shaman.

"If you know whats good for ya you will come with us to da camp the masters will like to inspect you for the slave markets". The hobgoblin boss said.

Ezra did not have time to waste on this runts so he started to chant a spell in the chaos dark tongue and a few seconds a howling came from the sky and a Lammasu landed near the band of hobgoblins.

The hobgoblins started to tremble in fear like all of their kind but before the hobgoblin boss call to retreat he was stabbed in the gut by the Shaman sword.

Upon their boss death the rest of the hobgoblins flee from the area. Ezra was looking at the Lammasu it was a beast like the manticore but when he was studying at the home of the chaos crone in the umbral chaotica he learned about many beasts of the old and new world. He knew about the Lammasu. It is a wise and crafty beast that would far rather convince other beasts to do the dirty work for it. So the shaman came up with a trick to get the beast on his side.

"Khaos Khar neth Dhaos un Akami Akhshami Aksho". Ezra said to the beast in the chaos dark tongue.

"(very well i will help you in your quest beastman)". The lammasu said in beast tongue.

Ezra clovenblight understands the words of the lammasu of course for he is a master in the lore of Ghur,Wild Magic and the lore of Ulgu.

The shaman got up on the lammasu's back and the beast take up to the sky to the region of Zorn Uzkul.

"so beast what is your name?". Ezra asked him.

"(i have no name beastman)". The lammasu said to him.

"very well you are now dhar-hakchsdh". The shaman said to him.

"And what dhar-hakchsdh means?". The beast asked.

"it means black-words". Ezra said to him.

"Black-words i like it very well so may name is black-words or as you said dhar-hakchsdh". Black-words said.

After a few hours they have reach the crucible of dismay in one of the mountains of Zorn Uzkul. The crucible of dismay was an alter of the four gods of chaos built in the days of the fourth everchosen Asavar Kul to boost the powers of the chaos legions in the dark lands but it had other purposes as well.

Ezra clovenblight and dhar-hakchsdh entered the alter gate to find the stranger standing preparing a dark ritual for the shaman.

"Good you made it and not a second less we have much to do for the second part is far more dangerous, i must chain you to the alter and drown you in the blood of deamons of the four chaos gods for a week if you survive you will be reborn as a powerful deamonic beastman and after that you may begin you true quest". The stranger said.

"and if i failed?". Ezra asked.

"don't worry you will not die you will get a fate much worse you will become a warp spawn for some new chosen to use". the stranger said.

"i am ready". Ezra said to him.

"Good let us begin". The stranger said.

The stranger's slaves put the shaman on the alter and they started to pour deamonic blood on him,when the deamon blood started to pour it felt like fire on skin all the rage,decay,excess and magic from the blood started to fused to the shaman skin.

For seven days he scream in agony for seven days he felt death about to take him but after a week the ordeal was over.

From the pit full of blood of deamons a scared Scaly Skin dark fur beastman the size of a Doombull came. he had glowing yellow eyes,is left arm was now a deamonic arm, is body was covered in chaos runes, he had 8 horns on his head and on the forehead was carved the eight marked star of chaos.

Next to him was is armor reforged in balefire along with is sword and a new staff. the sword was built in the forges of Zharr-Naggrund fueled by hate,the armor was the same as the sword but full with chaos markings. but the staff was something strange it was made from a dead branch of a tree but not just any tree,it was made from a branch of the oak of ages and was corrupted by the fell powers of chaos.

After putting the armor and weapons he want to the alter chamber to see a large portal gate opened and near it was the stranger and the lammasu dhar-hakchsdh.

"I see the ritual was a success". The stranger said.

"what is this portal?". Ezra said.

"This is were your destiny begins, in the other side of this portal is a land where the hold of the dark gods is not strong. you must go their and destroy what protects this world from the gods then the gods will award you in the form of deamonhood". The stranger said.

"very well Khaos Khar Leth!". Ezra shouted grabbing dhar-hakchsdh as they enter the portal.

A few second later the portal closed and the stranger toke the form of a mutant deamon raven, he put a dark coin on the alter and said "and one coin goes to the raven god" in a deamonic tone and he vanish.

everfree forest,Equestria-Equestrian continent-500 years before the return of nightmare moon:

The forest of the everfree was quiet full of beasts and brigands running from princess celestia's law but something new has enter the forest, from the dark portal they came the beastman shaman and his lammasu landed in a grove deep in the everfree. This forest was strange to them it was dark full with magic but one thing was missing, chaos he felt no chaos in the woods and when he looked to the sky he saw one moon then he knew they landed in this new world his gods want to destroy.

"Qwe Sho Baah Tyars mah!". Ezra said to dhar-hakchsdh.

"As you wish shaman". Dhar-hakchsdh said and went to search for humans.

In that time ezra found a crow looking at him so to have better eyes on the forest he cast on it The Beast Broken spell and in seconds the crow became under the command of the shaman.

"(what race rules the lands outside the woods!)". Ezra said in beast tongue.

"(this land is ruled by princess celestia of Equestria the land of ponies). The crow said.

"do not lie to me crow or i will tear you apart!". Ezra said to the crow.

"I do not lie master this land was under the rule of the ponies for many years". The crow said to him.

Dhar-hakchsdh return from the search to inform is master about what he saw.

"My lord i found a strange group near to this place but they are not human". Dhar-hakchsdh siad to him.

"let me guess ponies". Ezra said to him.

"Yes my lord maybe we shell pay them a visit". Dhar-hakchsdh said to his master.

"yes its time to see what this world have to offer". Clovenblight said and he went to the pony camp along side dhar-hakchsdh and the crow.

On the way to the camp of the ponies the shaman had an idea,he hit the ground with is staff and cast a spell from the lore of the wild it was the Primal Onslaught spell and seconds after he cast it the beasts of the woods began to come to him full of bloodlust. now he did not only have powerful magic and gifts from the gods but he all so had an army of beasts at is command.

pony camp:

In the pony camp where pony outlaws guarding some prisoners and the goods they had,they were drinking and not seeing what is hidden in the forest canopy.

One of the prisoners was a small filly and next to her in the cage was her mother's corpse, she did not cry for if she cry the outlaws will beat her to death.

In a second a sound was heard from the woods, "did you hear that". Said one of the outlaws.

Only to see a crow looking at them,"it was just a crow don't get so scared". The second outlaw.

But more sounds became louder and louder, the outlaws prepared their weapons and from the woods a lone figure came out cover in robes dark fur it looked like a minotaur but not part bull but part goat this deformed beast was looking at the ponies and said something in an unknown tongue.

"bhakaryshdh". The figure said to them.

"We don't understand you freak of nature". One of the ponies said.

And from the woods they started to come wolves,manticores and birds of prey all under the command of the shaman.

"Boss we are surrounded". One of the ponies said.

"I know let me talk to him,maybe you what to talk about this like civilized ponies". The pony boss said.

If they knew anything about beastman is that they hate all things civilized.

The shaman pointed the staff on the camp and said the words that will forever echo in the everfree, "Akhash Sur Guwu Akhash Tarrh!". He yelled to his war beasts.

All the beasts like wild feral monsters descend upon the ponies, before they had any time to react the war beasts mauled and gnash all the outlaws.

"Yuizz Yuizz Yuizz". He said to his beasts till all of the outlaws where dead except for the pony boss for he was wounded. His legs were broken he saw the figure coming to him.

"What are you?" the boss asked him.

One word was heard from him,"Shyish". He said to him and he step on the neck of the pony and he snap it.

The shaman went to the prisoners and he inspect them,they all where broken and weak except for one filly. The cage was broken by his deamonic hand and he grabbed the filly and toke her to the rest of the prisoners and he give her a sword of one of the ponies and said to her in the same unknown tongue.

"Yuizz Rdhuiby Uogu Guar Tzeen". He said to her.

"I don't understand". She said and started to cry.

The shaman kicked her and said to her in man tongue,"kill,drink,eat and change".

The filly was scared she did not want to kill the ponies but then she saw the beasts starting to move to her with murder in the eyes she know it was her or them now. She scream as loud as she can and she stab all the prisoners. She started to cry but the shaman wasn't done he grabbed her and pointed to the dead ponies and then to his mouth he wanted her to eat them for some reason. So she started doing that she began to eat the dead ponies, she got sick on every bite for hours upon hours she ate the dead and drink their blood why she did not know but she had to keep doing it or she will die by the monster. ten hours for ten hours she was eating only to collapse at the end.

"take her to the camp she will do fine as my chosen". Ezra said to his beasts as they left the broken camp.

some time after pony guards from canterlot found the outlaws camp only to find all the ponies outlaws and prisoners dead. they search the camp only to find more blood and gore they never saw anything like it, but then they heard a voice from the pile of dead they found one of the outlaws alive with no wounds on his body but the mind that was something else. he was in is own piss,shaking from fear and was saying something they did not hear.

"What happened here tell us". one of the guards said.

The outlaw looked to the eyes of the guard and said to him"the forest,the forest happened they came no demands only blood so much blood, it came from the forest full of wrath. they kill then ate us then they left to the deep woods. i hid my self among the dead but i saw him looking at me he let me live for what i do not know". the outlaw said in panic.

"What came what did you see". the guard said to him.

"RAGE, i saw the rage of the everfree". the outlaw said then he pass out.

Years after what happened in the forest and the ponies started to forget about the old tale of the rage of the everfree and what will become to the ones that will enter the deep parts of the forests where he rests and plans to bring the word of his gods to this world of harmony.

Equestria,ponyville-present day:

It was a normal day in ponyville it was only six months after the battle of the bell and all was fine but all changed when a new pony enter town. She was tall for a pony,her coat was black,she was full of scars,she was missing an eye and her last part was that she was an earth pony but she had four goat horns on her head.

"So this is ponyville, ha for a town of heroes is not that big". She said to her self.

As she was about to enter the town she began to have flashes and she began to gag and hold her mouth, she then grab a red vial from her bag and she drank it.

"pull yourself together this will soon be over". she said to her self and she enter the town.

In the town evrypony was staring at her never in their life they saw such a pony. She went to one of the food stands.

"I want to order". She said to the merchant.

"Just a second... Ok my name is applejack how can i help... You". Applejack said to the strange pony.

"Hello my name is doe-Khar i was wandering if you are selling?". Doe-khar said to applejack

"Sure what do you need". Applejack said to her.

"Well i will like 10 apples and information if you selling". Doe-khar said to her.

"Information about what?". Applejack asked.

"I need to find the one called discord the spirit of chaos". She said in anger.

In another part of the town fluttershy was about to visit zacora but she did not know someone or something was stalking her in the forest.

chapter 2 : the Turnskin pony and the pale manticore

Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.

chapter 3: Akhash Yar Guwu Hakaksdh

ponyville twilight's castle:

A few hours past after the crisis in ponyville,twilight started to use healing magic on starlight,discord and spike only to see that her magic had no effect on spike and discord's wounds but at least starlight was fine yet she was unconscious do to the lack of magic in her body. She made a magic barrier on a corner of a room and she put in their the scared pony doe til she will know what to do with her for now at least she is also unconscious so twilight just wait for the rest of her friends to see what to do about all of this.

Twilight was tired and in her wait she fell asleep,during her slumber she started to her whispers.

"she comes she comes what joy".

"Hello his somepony their?" twilight asked the nothing.

"to bring her the truth she seek".

"Its not funny show yourself!". Twilight demanded

"she think she think to order us".

A silence was in the dark dream,suddenly the dream changed to an image of equestria and what twilight saw was only horror.

Ponies dead every where,corpses gutted like fish, organs decorating the homes of ponies,blood fell from the clouds and the land burned and rot and the worse was she felt all of it. The dream changed again to canterlot and it was worse then the first image, canterlot was full of blood and eviscerated ponies,heads on pikes and hanged bodies. She heard screams from the throne room so she run to the throne room but on the way she saw her friends,her family and luna hung from the walls by nails gutted and worse alive. Twilight was crying why is this happening only to her more screams from the throne room she run and open the door to see more blood and death but the corpses she see in front of her are all the villains she and her friends defeated,to the side she saw discord in chains crying to him self non stop she went to him and ask him,"discord what happened". She said with tears.

Discord said nothing like he did not hear her,she then understand this is not real but why its feeling so real. She heard more screams from the room she search for them til she looked above the throne what she saw made her scream from terror she saw her mentor celestia bound by hooks on the ceiling she had no skin on her body,her horn cut off and nails in her body. It was pure horror what did all of this what monster did all of this.

A sound of laughter heard from the throne she then saw it she saw her self only this version of herself was mangled,talons and tentacles came out her body. She was holding spike in her magic using a rusty nail to sewing his mouth and eyes shut.

"Hello twilight what brings you to our home". She said to twilight.

"Who are you! What are you! What is all of this!". Twilight asked her.

"What do you mean? We are you and you are us only we serve lord Tchar'zanek and you well you are still young and ignorant". She said to twilight.

"I don't understand who is Tchar'zanek? Why did you did all of this!". Twilight cry in anger.

"Do you really want to know? Very well it will only progress this fate". She said to twilight.

She was about to tell twilight the truth of things only to be stopped by something strong, powerful ,old and sinister. The twisted version of twilight was choking and screaming when suddenly a portal was open in side the dream and from it he came out a figure in dark robes is face was unseen and he held a book around his neck with an eight marked star like the one she saw on doe's flank. He was looking like the humans she saw in the mirror but in her heart she know he is something else.

This figure went to the twisted version of twilight and started to talk to her. "What do you think you are doing?" he said to her.

"i am here on the orders of the four they grow tired of your games and want to speed up the omen, so put me down or you shell suffer their wrath!". She said to him loud and in anger.

"Really now i shell suffer their wrath hahahahahah ahahahahahah ahahahahahahhahaha".he started to laugh like a maniac.

Then suddenly from his back came dark tendrils and he started to strangle her.

"do you think they will come to your help whelp why you are but a one pathetic deamon who want praise and to suck from daemonettes tits! Who are you to command me when even be'lakor dare not to. Only for this i will destroy your existence but i need you to send a message to the four, you tell my brothers if they will interrupt my playthings again i shell do to them a worse fate then what we did to malal. This is my story! My rules!! And we and only we shell do with it as we want so go now OR SUFFER THE WRATH OF THE FELLBORN GOD!!!!". He said in a voice so loud the twisted version of twilight and the image of blood and gore fade to nothing.

He then snap is fingers and a small room appear it was in the shape of her old living room when she first came to ponyville, he then set on a chair and looked at twilight she was looking to the ground in fear like she was about to lose her mind and even worse she piss her self. He snap his fingers again and two ponies with no mouth,face and color came to be. "Be a dear and clean miss sparkle for me. He said to them and they want to her and started to clean her with water and soap.

"Well this is embarrassing i am very sorry about this ordeal you went if you want i can make it go away like it never happened". He said to her.

"Who are you?". She asked him in a broken tone.

"I am sorry but i can't tell you your mind can't handle who i am plus you are tired and you small like urine and how the children of that god say it ah yes "the Musk of Fear", but never mind that i need to send you back to your world now". He said to her.

"What do you mean i am sleeping". She said in that broken tone again.

"Far from it my dear you are in my home in the Inevitable City were dreams come to die, but soon you will be home and you will forget all this happened". He said to her.

"No i don't want to forget". She said to him.

"I am sorry my dear but if you will not forget you will do a big spoiler in my story and we don't want that do we". He said to her and calming her.

"I guess but my friends are need of help and i can't heal them". She said to him.

"Take this potion inside it are waters from an "old friend" of my her waters can heal all pure or dark, it have the amount only for them do use it with care and good bay twilight sparkle til we meet again". He said and twilight woke up from slumber to see the rest of her friends calling her.

ponyville twilight's castle:

"Twilight wake up, twilight". Rainbow said to her and shaking her.

Twilight woke up and started to vomit on the floor (she did suffer mental trauma and then the memories of that trauma where taken from her mind), she stop to vomit only to see rainbow,applejack,pinkie and rarity worried about her when suddenly twilight started to cry.

"Darling are you ok?". Rarity asked her.

"Ya sugarcube way are crying?". Applejack asked her.

Twilight still crying said to them,"i don't know". They all hugged her and trying to make her feel better when for some reason twilight saw a strange potion with water in them,she push her friends aside and went to discord and spike, she give them the water to drink and their wounds fade away. They woke up and started to remember what happened and discord give a angry look that they never saw him do before and he said to twilight, " i am gonna kill this pony if its the last thing i do".

"Can somepony tell us what we miss". Rainbow said to them.

"Its a long story". Twilight said and she started to tell them all that happened with the pony doe and what came after she became a monster the rest of the elements had many feelings anger,fear but only one have them felt guilt it was applejack she was the one that introduce doe to twilight.

"What did the princesses say about all of this". Pinkie said to twilight and trying to make her feel better.

Twilight said nothing and she just stare at the floor when discord then spoke, "you didn't tell them yet did you". He said in anger.

"No". Was her only reply.

"WHAT", they all said to her in the same time.

"Why not what if she wake up again we don't stand a chance against her". Spike said to twilight in anger.

"I want to hear her side in all of this why she act like it". Twilight said to them in hope they understand.

All of them were arguing and not noticing that two new figures where standing in the room.

"So do they all ways act like foolish sheep". Dark-words said.

"No something must of happened while i was in the forest". Fluttershy said to him.

Starlight started to wake up from the noise,"what happened?". She asked only to find next to her a very large pale and ugly manticore staring at her. She started to scream.

Everyone in the room look to were the scream came from to see starlight and fluttershy on the floor and next to them is the largest manticore they ever seen. Like an idiot rainbow flow to the monster and started to hit it but he was just staring at her unamused. He then stared at applejack examine her for something then he open his mouth and a black cloud started to form around applejack and in seconds she was running to rainbow and she buck her to the wall.

"Applejack what are you doing!". Rainbow said in anger.

The only thing she did was taking a battle stance in front of the manticore.

"Tell them i will release the farm pony when they stop acting like idiots". Dark-words said to fluttershy.

"Oh, ok, everypony mister dark-words said he will release applejack only if you be nice". Fluttershy.

They just look at her when twilight asked her, "fluttershy is that manticore using magic?". "He doesn't like when you call him that". Fluttershy said to her.

"What a manticore". Rainbow said only to get another buck to the wall from applejack.

"Yes don't call him that and mister dark-words can you release applejack now". Fluttershy said to the beast.

Dark-words was looking at fluttershy then at applejack and he opened his mouth again but now the same black cloud he send to applejack return to him.

"What happened,why is rainbow on the floor and what the hay is that thing". She said to them.

"Well everypony and spike and discord this is dark-words the Lammasu,dark-words this are my friends". She said to them when suddenly the Lammasu named dark-words went to discord.

"Do you need something?". Discord said to him.

"Nothing just wondering why something like you are with the mortals and not his kind". Dark-words said to him.

"I have you know i m one of a kind and i like spending time with them but tell me why are you here with fluttershy". Discord said to him with a small hint of anger.

"We just met in the woods why you ask? Afraid your pet will overgrow you?". Dark-words said to him.

"You two be nice to each other". Fluttershy said to them.

They only respond with a "fine".

After all of that fluttershy told them what happened in the everfree and twilight told her what happened in ponyville.

"Doe-khar". Dark-words said.

"I'm sorry what?". Fluttershy asked him.

"Her name is not doe its Doe-khar my masters child if she is back then she needs my masters help or she will lose control again but it will be permanent". He said to fluttershy and then she tell the rest of them.

"So what are we suppose to do?". Twilight said.

"I will tell you,you will let me go and i will go to my father in the woods and you will never see me again". A voice said from the room in the back.

They all looked to the back to see the dark pony Doe-khar inside the magic barrier she was looking at the so called heroes of equestria,the elements of harmony all she saw are children that getting to things out of their league. She then turn to discord and no words where needed her face said all of it,"useless".

She saw the Lammasu dark-words to her surprise why he is out of the forest? So she began to talk to him in one language the ponies will not understand.

"Dhar-hakchsdh! Hwi nchsh Qwe wshkhsh mars arakf yar Guwu hakaksdh,Qwe zarak hwmf Phaos uumbhbsharshs ytz fwshcc sharfshkh Guwu Akhash vkhakghars!". She said to him in the unknown language.

"Do not worry no beast or pony venture to the deep woods were your father lives". Dark-words reply to her in his beastial sound.

While no one in the room understand the words she spoke to them it sound like nonsense but not all of them one of them felt strange when she heard this words,to twilight what the rest heard as animal growls she heard and understand them.

"Excuse me miss doe what is a bloodground?". Twilight asked the black pony.

Both Doe-khar and dhar-hakchsdh looked at twilight in shock for knowing this word. "How do you know this word,were did you heard it tell me now!". Doe yelled at twilight.

"You just said it!,why are you angry!". Twilight said back to her in anger.

"That is not possible how somepony like you a slave to harmony and order know this language,something is wrong you have to come with me to the deep woods of the everfree now!". Doe said to her.

A loud noise was heard from the castle hall when a small griffin and an earth pony enter the room,it was Gallus and Sandbar they were in panic. "Princess, smolder is missing!!". They both said at the same time.

"Ok ok calm down tell me what happened". Twilight said to them.

"Well tell her!". Sandbar told Gallus in anger.

"We all where in the school when we found an old books of legends in equestria and we found a story about something that happened in the everfree 500 years ago, about some guards that found a camp of bandits only to found all of them dead but one that was alive and told them the forest killed all of them so we talk about this story for some time because that is the first story we read that described so much death". Gallus said but a voice he did not know interrupted him.

"they come they come for the smell of blood,they know they know what sins you done,you run you hide but they all ways see,for they for they are the rage of the everfree,so all the young ones be nice to all or the wrath of forest shell gorge on your soul". Doe sang to her self.

"That was a nice song i never heard it before". Rarity said to her.

"Of course you never heard it,it was a song from a bygone era known as the "300 sorrows" a 300 years of war,death and persecution. This song is a warning sign to colts and fillies if they do wrong the rage of the everfree will hunt them down". Doe said to them from her cage.

"The rage of the everfree? Never heard of it". Rainbow said like it was nothing.

"Anyway we talk about this story and long story short i bet smolder she if she enter this parts of the forest i will do what she wants for the rest of the year if she can't she needs to to what i say so she agreed to the terms and she went to the forest,that was two days ago!". Gallus said to twilight in panic.

They all started to panic only to hear the sounds of anger and rage from the corner to see doe growling with all of her razor teeth showing and her eye turn to a dragon like eye looking at the young griffin, they all went back from their place from this even discord then she started to yell at Gallus and Sandbar, "Qwe Uygzsh Shyish Guar Kwaaedh Tzkhyshars!". She yell at them.

While all of them was scared of her outburst twilight went in front of the magic cage and asked her,"why do you think that". Only to get her answer in a more serious tone,"because that story book they read is real all that its said is true and if we don't get to the everfree now their friend will die and eaten by the rage of the everfree,so get me out now before its to late!". Doe shouted at twilight's face.

"That is not possible this story was about something 500 years ago how can you know all of this". Starlight said to her.

"BECAUSE I WAS THEIR I SAW WHAT HAPPENED THAT DAY ALL THE DEATH ALL THE BLOOD ALL THE MEAT". She said to them crying.

"I will answer all your questions princess but if you want to save that child you need me i know this woods better then anypony and i know the rage of the everfree i know where is lair is and i will go only with you to many ponies will alert the beasts". Doe said to twilight.

"Fine only we will go". Twilight said to her and she lift the cage of magic.

The rest of the group were against it but twilight said its the only way,and both of them teleport to the outside of the forest.

the everfree forest:

They enter the woods and they walk for hours and no beast was in the path like they know not to disrupt them then they saw it the marking stone and the path to the deep woods they kept walking and the more they walk twilight began to feel something heavy on her horn. They found the lair and before her twilight saw things that made her vomit. Boons of beasts and ponies,skull effigies,dead corpses half eaten and marking in an unknown language. They spotted smolder eating some gems in the cave entrance and they both walk to her.

"Smolder!,are you ok?". Twilight asked her.

"Oh hi princess why are you here?". Smolder asked her.

"We were looking for you,you were gone for two days". Twilight said to her.

"Well i can't leave my leg is broken,so he told me to stay here til i feel better to move". Smolder said to her.

"Smolder who told you to stay here?". Twilight asked the young dragon.

"He did". She said and pointed to the back of the cave.

What came out of the cave was a monster unlike what twilight could imagine a giant half goat half human with 8 horns,black fur,scars,yellow eyes and an aura of dark magic from him this thing was powerful she knows it just by looking at him. He then came a few steps to them and roar so loud it was heard in all the forest the roar it self made twilight bleed from her ears, he then grab his staff using a deformed hand but before he did anything doe step in front of twilight and smolder and said to him only two words.

"Hello father".

chapter 4:how i met her father

the everfree forest-lair of the beast:

"Hello father". That is what twilight heard from the black pony doe this thing this monstrosity of muscle and magic that looked nothing like a pony is doe's dad. Twilight was on the verge of collapse, from this thing came out an aura of dark magic so strong it will put even discord to shame. Smolder was trying to help twilight but both started to feel sick only when he started to talk to them.

"Guwu khakf Aks nurgleth dhfchakarushkh fwshar Guwu Zhoshuiph Aks bhakari Haadhm, mars Qwe phkhy wshch Guar Zu lyzsh dhwsh ydh Arbu Aks Guwu wshkhs, so doe for what did you bring this outsider to my lair". He said in his dark language.

Every word from his mouth was like pain to twilight like something is trying to dig in to her skull,his vile tongue was to much for the young alicorn to take but then doe started to talk with the beast.

"Father i will tell you why she is here but both of them can't handle your miasma of fell for to long". She said to her father in hope he will agree not to kill them.

"And why would i care if this bhakari Haadhm and dragon whelp die they mean nothing to me or the gods i serve". He said to his daughter not even considering her words.

"Wuzch ghdh doe". Twilight said choking on her words.

The monster heard the young pony and he stop his miasma of fell,both twilight smolder started to started to breathe again the monster push doe and smolder aside and he looked at twilight close watching her like he is searching for something. Twilight was in fear this thing is so close to her just staring at her,he then grabbed twilight and pinned her to the ground she looked above her trying to see what he is doing what she saw was a third eye opening from his forehead from her view it was terrifying but from his view it was nothing a gift from a cygor he killed and toke his eye for one reason to see the winds of magic. The cygor eye was looking at twilight's horn and flank and then he saw it he saw why this thing was speaking Black Speech she was touched by the ruinous powers of chaos.

"I see now it is weak not strong enough but with his blessing on you maybe, Guwu Uku Aks Guwu Dhar Tarrh Aks Khaos Phaos aamzsh we Guwu Ksy Sur Zhqu bhlmar". He said to her with a dark intentions.

Twilight did not understand him for some reason when he spoke that strange language every time she heard him her ears started to bleed but suddenly while he was using the cygor magic gaze he saw something else in her,he looked deeper in her magic only to hear something in her.

"Drathro Cyanathair Elthrai Lacoi Ezra ClovenBlight. Nastirr comes to you for my All Seeing Eye saw your death by the Talu Nymraif, mark my words for i am Quyl-Isha". The voice said to him.

Ezra's cygor eye started to burn from something and he yell in pain and he looked at twilight with rage and bloodlust,twilight was looking at this monster with terror when he suddenly grab her and toke out his sword and yell to twilight's face.

"You have no power here! Your children have no power here! And my death will not come from the Uzs Aks Guwu hakaksdh!". He yell to her face and started to wave his sword.

Before his sword reach twilight's body he heard a call,"stop!". The voice said.

He turn around only to see from the woods a small light made of nothing looking at him,"fine she will live but only to pay you back for what you did for me". He said to the light and the same light vanish.

"Doe-khar this outsiders are in your care give them water and food and when i call for you all enter the came until then you or they will not leave this place,i am going to the came to speak to the dark ones". He said to doe and he left to his cave.

a few hours later:

Twilight and smolder started to wake up to a very strong headache and the smell of something cooking next to them,they saw the black pony doe making something in a cauldron. "You two are awake good but all so you lost to much liquid from your vomiting so i suggest you eat something and you are lucky i made grub for you". Doe said to the both of them.

"Whats in it?". Twilight asked only to get her answer from smolder.

"Fish,bones,meat,bugs,vegetables,mushrooms,rocks and blood".she said and grabbed a bowl of the "grub".

"How the hell do you know what i put in here". Doe said to the young dragon.

"Well that is the only thing i eat this two days oh and the gems i found this morning". Smolder answered doe and started to eat the grub.

Twilight only looked at the so called food and wanted to vomit,"how can you even call it food it looks like and smell like vomit and smolder if you know what is in that how can you eat that?". Twilight asked smolder in a worried tone.

Only to get an answer from both of them,"either you eat or you turn weak". They both said and then started to laugh.

"I see you got the eat or starve lesson from my dad". Doe said to smolder.

"Ya i didn't want to eat at first but he mange to convince me". Smolder said in anger.

"I get it he did to me the same thing when i was your age". Doe said while she got a very alcoholic cider brand not from equestria and she started to drink it. "You want some?". She asked smolder.

"She can't drink yet she is to young". Twilight said to doe only to see smolder grab the cider and started drinking it like its nothing.

"Smolder what do you think you are doing!" twilight said to smolder but got a reply from doe.

"Relax twilight if i know my dad he give her worse things to drink plus you do know that dragons can't get drunk". Doe said to her and taking more grub.

"That is not the point she is young and in our care if something will happened to her it will be a problem with the dragons". Twilight said only to get grub shoved to her mouth by doe,"you talk to much shut up and eat the grub". Doe said to her with a smile.

While doe was feeding twilight like she is a foal she turn to smolder,"so smolder nice to meet you my name is doe and you saw my dad so i have to ask why he did not kill you?". Doe said to the young dragon.

Twilight while she was horrid that she was eating that food all so began to wonder why this huge monster did not how doe said it "kill her".

"Well i will lie to you if i say he wasn't trying to at first but i think i will tell you what happened when we first met so you will have the full story,so it was not far from here two days ago i got lost i found something big hunting a hydra he killed it he then saw me i was scared and then we began to talk".

everfree forest-deep woods-two days ago:

"Yarfkhghsshch!!". The monster said.

Smolder said in fear," can you repeat that".

The monster said to her again in man-Tongue,"intruder!".

The large beast was looking at her blood in his teeth he was ready to kill her on the spot,he then lift his leg and was about to stomp her.

"Stop". Smolder cry to him.

He stop and ask her, "why should i do that winged spawn of drakes?". He ask her.

"Because ah...". She said to him only to set the ground on fire and fly from the the beast.

While she was flying away on the ground the monster grab a stone and throw it on her,it miss smolder but barely then he grab a second stone only to fill it with magic and throw it on her direction when the stone was near her he clench is fist and the stone burst. Smolder from the burst of the magic stone started to fall and she landed not far from the beast.

She was screaming in pain because her leg broke from the fall, " damn it... Come on smolder you can do it its just a broken leg your a dragon this is nothing". She said to her self only when she moved she scream more in pain,"i swear when i get out of this forest i am gonna kill gallus". She said to her self.

A few seconds later the sound of howling was near her and a pack of 10 timber wolves started to converge in her location,"you gotta be kidding me". She said between her pain.

The timber wolves about to charge at her when suddenly the large monster came out from the woods and with his large arms he swept away all the wolves and he toke a stand like a minotaur,the wolves growled at him ready to charge him but then the wind in the forest started to howl like a its alive and the monster inhale the wind and release a howling roar of such intensity that the timber wolves started to burst and shatter to pieces,when the wolves shatter the monster toke his staff and hit the ground and the magic of the timber wolves was consumed by his staff. Smolder saw the one sided battle but from the pain she pass out.

A few hours later and smolder started to regain consciousness to see that she is outside a cave and her leg is cover in plant veins,wood and mud. She looked around to see bones all around her from wild life to sentient beings like ponies,griffins,young dragons and to her surprise five skeletons of what she learn from gallus are Arimaspi. The cave she saw was on the outside at least was cover in effigies and markings she suddenly heard something coming to her direction only to see the monster bringing a large cauldron he fill it with water and light a fire he then started to drop thing from a bag to the cauldron like rocks and meat.they said nothing to each other for an hour or two when the thing he made in the cauldron was done he grab two wooden bowls fill them with what she think is food. He pass a bowl to her and said,"Uogu,Rdhuiby!". To her but smolder had no idea what he said,"what?". She said to him an he said again,"eat,drink!". He said and started to eat his food and drank a keg of griffin ale. "Hold on a second if you speak like a normal pony why do you speak like well what ever you are?". She asked the monster.

"You have wings and fire why do you use them?". He asked her.

"Because i am a dragon". She said to him.

"Then you have your answer and don't call me a bhakari again or i will skin you alive!". He said in anger.

"A what?". She asked him.

"A PONY!". He yell at her and grab a manticore's tail and started to eat it.

"Ok ok sorry,so what are you i never saw one of your kind before?". She asked him.

"First we are known as cloven ones or beastman second even if i am the only one of my kind on this world you have weak imitations of my kind". He said to her.

"Really i never saw something like you before well except minotaurs". She said and eat more of the food from the cauldron.

"Yes minotaurs also that thing i killed 250 years ago". He said pointing at the Arimaspi skeletons.

"You mean the Arimaspi?". She asked him.

"Is that their name we have something similar to them but we call them Caprigors". He said and drank more ale.

Smolder was thinking about what he said when she notice something he said to her,"sorry to bother you again but did you said you killed them 250 years ago how old are you?". She asked him.

He was thinking to him self for a few minutes and answer her by using his claw to paint three long lines after them seven minor lines then five short lines ,that did not really answer her question,"sorry i don't know what all the lines mean". She said to him.

"The lines are my age the long ones are 1000 the short ones are 10 and the minor ones are 100". He said to her.

"So you are... 3750 YEARS OLD!". She shouted to him.

"Yes why". He said.

"How no one can live that long except dragons and alicorns". She said in some wonder.

"The reason is chaos". He said to her no longer eating from all her questions.

"Chaos like discord". She said to him.

"No not like the so called god of chaos of this world i mean my chaos from my world the power of the Tarrh the true form of chaos". He said in awe.

"Ok... I saw you using magic but your horns did not glow so how did you cast magic?". The dragon ask him.

"Why my horns need to glow all can use the arcane but first they need the winds to cast it." he said to her.

"The winds what air have to do with magic?". She asked him.

"The winds of magic you fool if you can use the winds you can use magic". He said to her and got up from his place.

"I am going inside to talk to the gods you stay here and eat til you get better then you leave and if you tell someone of this place then i will use them as meat to my cauldron". He said to her then he enter the cave.

Smolder was alone in the forest outside the cave and for two days she was alone in the woods eating the food he made her only to find some gems next to the cave so she started to eat them only to see a strange black pony and twilight running to her.

everfree forest-present time:

"And now we are here". Smolder said to them and drinking cider.

After smolder finish her story twilight hugged her while doe just eat and drink.

"I am so sorry if only we know we". Twilight was speaking only to be interrupted by doe.

"You what help her not only she mange to stay alive if you where here to help her you will be inside this cauldron". Doe said to twilight while she was eating.

"You know what why are you so negative all the time what happened to you that made you like this!". Twilight said to her in anger.

"Look princess not all of us have the life of luxury some of us had to do what ever it took to survive,i will not tell you all the thing i did for 500 years but for starters when i was her age my adoptive father made me kill 37 ponies and then eat them til only bones left so don't come with me about why i am so negative". Doe said to her and showing her teeth.

Twilight and smolder started to shake from what they heard she killed and eat ponies when she was young and that was 500 years ago what else she did in that time, but luck if you can call it that came when the beast called, "Sharf Baah Doe!".

"He summon us lets go". Doe said to them.

They enter the cave to see more markings and bones the reach the end of the cave to see lines after lines of dead unicorns and on them robes with a burning sword on them. They set next to doe and in the center the great beast was chanting something that made twilight head hurt more and more, "Khar Aks karneth, tzeen Aks tzeeneth, slaa Aks slaaneth, nurgh Aks nurgleth Ui aksho Guwu akhshami Aks Kwaaedh Hakkhdh!". He yell and the cave lit in unholy magic.

He turn to them and started to talk to twilight,"so bhakari why did you come to my domain to help the child or to try to slay me like all the fools who try before you or maybe to learn of new form of power stronger then your harmony". He said to her in a beastial tone.

"No matter what you say the magic of friendship will never fail". Twilight said to him with confidence only to get a laughter from him.

"Hahahahahah the magic of friendship fool of a princess ALL MAGIC IS CHAOS!". He said to her and the unicorn corpses started to glow from the eyes and look at twilight.

"Chaos is the heart of all magic and from the realms of my masters the winds of magic blow to all and i am their words on the land of mortals". He said to her and more dark magic started to form in the cave.

"But i will forgive you for you not know the true matter of things or the power of a Bray-Shaman". He said to her with rage.

"Fine so to your question yes i am here for smolder and now that you said learn more things will you answer some of my questions if you don't mind". She said to him with a smile.

Doe grabbed twilight and said to her in anger,"princess are you insane if you not notice yet my dad is not for talk but more to kill".

"Look i believe all living beings have good in them even if they are a large goat monster". Twilight said to doe.

Ezra heard the talk of his daughter and the princess and had a plan in his mind.

"Very well princess i will answer your questions but i will answer them only in your home outside of my forest deal". He said to her.

Not a moment to soon she answer to him with a smile,"deal".

"Gods no". Doe said to her self loud.

"But before we go i need to know your name my is twilight sparkle princess of friendship and yours?". She asked him.

The beast stood still larger then two minotaurs and said to her,"i am Ezra ClovenBlight!! Bray-Shaman of the dark gods!!".

chapter 5: we are the cloven ones,children of chaos

everfree forest:

The four of them where going from the forest to ponyville,smolder and doe where in the front talking about how all of this is a bad idea and what to do when things go bad, Twilight was near the Bray-Shaman Ezra ClovenBlight so see if he was willing to answer some questions she had for him and ezra he was walking and thinking to him self how is this race survived for so long.

"I said NO why your small pony mind can't accept that!". Ezra said to Twilight as he kept walking.

"Because it doesn't make sense how can you be 3750 years old and we don't have any record of you in our books only in one and its say nothing about what you are,so all i am asking is a small Q&A about your self before we get to ponyville, please". Twilight said to him with eyes hungry for knowledge.

"FINE!!". He roared at her with anger.

"Doe take the child and go ahead and tell them to prepare for my arrival and of the Haadhm bhakari, and one more thing". He said to her and bringing her blood vials,"take them and use them if you feel the change".

"Yes father, come smolder lets get you back to your friends before they will send more ponies to "help". She said to smolder and she grabbed her with her tail put her on her back and started to run.

Now only Twilight and ezra where in the forest then ezra grab a tree and tear it apart from its place and he set on it,"so what do you want to know and only five questions the rest when we reach your town". He said and grabbed some ale.

"Yes yes oh this is so great!". She said with joy and grabbed a parchment and quill,"ok so first question where are you from?". She asked him.

"Forest of Shadows,Middle Mountains,the old world". He said to her in a flat tone.

The only thing she got from is answer is more questions,"can you elaborate on that". She said to him.

"Fine,the old world is the continent of most of the races of the world live on,the Middle Mountains are a desolate mountain range located at the north-western region of the realm of man and the forest of shadows is a forest Shaped like an arm wrapped around the shoulders of the Middle Mountains,its ancient trees having grown so close together that their branches nearly interweave like tightly clasped fingers. It has always had a reputation as a dangerous place". He said.

"Ok... Next question what are you and elaborate on it". She asked him.

"I am beastman or cloven one, a race of savage mutant humanoids that bear various traits of bestial appearance, such as cloven hooves, muscular human bodies, horned bestial heads and a malign primitive intelligence. Proud of our origins, it is said that we are the descendants of ancient humans corrupted and twisted by the influence of chaos at the dawn of Chaos's coming into the world. From deep within the twisted forested woodlands of the old world and beyond,we are a violent, war-driven race that seeks only to plague and destroy the civilisations of Mankind. We prey on the weak and defenseless, striking at lonely settlements without warning in a rampage of destruction before disappearing into the protective darkness of our dark wilderness, running away from the dire retribution that fails to follow. To underestimate us is a fatal mistake. We are creatures of violence and conflict, and we are far more cunning than then what the realm of man believes. Worse still, the more noble and haughty the foe, the more my kind are driven to prove their own supremacy by casting him down from his lofty pedestal and trampling his body beneath blood-encrusted, filthy hooves. As such, we would go to war with savage intent, slaughtering the civilised races like cattle, burning down and shattering their homes, and stomping on the remains with our cloven hooves until there is nothing left but devastation and ruin. So long as Chaos reigns over the world, the Beastmen shall plague the lands of Mankind for all eternity". He said to her in rage.

Twilight stop to write is words only to start shaking and fearing for her life,he is a monster of chaos and death and his reasons to live are only to destroy all life like cattle,she wanted to run but she was afraid that if she will run he will kill her and all of ponyville.

"Ok... Next...q-question what are y-you to your k-kind?" she asked him as her words were trembling as she asked him.

"I am Bray-Shaman or Speaker of the Dark Council,we are powerful, if primitive, Sorcerers who occupy a unique and privileged position within the brutal and bitter world our kind. We have no need to defend ourselves from other members of the tribe, for none would dare assault us. Not even the mightiest of beastlords would harm a Bray-Shaman, for we speak the will of the dark gods, and those that defy the gods pay the highest price of all. Bray-Shamans are born into magic,and wield it with an instinctive ease. A palpable miasma of fell sorcery surrounds them, and when their wrath is roused reality itself is distorted and maimed. Tree roots twist and writhe at their passing, the undergrowth boils with unholy life and repugnant parasites scurry at their feet. The Bray-Shamans can take the form of the beasts of the wild wood, the better to spy upon all. Countless are the tales of death and war presaged by visitations of evil-eyed crows, owls or foxes. Many superstitions regarding such beasts grip the hearts of men, particularly in the most far-flung townships and military outposts. As the Beastlords are the embodiment of their race's hatred for Man, so the Bray-Shamans embody the loathing of his gods. To blaspheme the deities of Man is to do ultimate honor to chaos, and the Bray Shamans enact such defilement as the greatest of their rituals. The most blessed of all are those who have counselled their chieftains to wage unending war upon the world of man, and in so doing have burned to the ground the temples of the gods of Man. To the Bray-Shamans, the ultimate act of worship is to slay Man's priests upon their own altars, to defecate upon their holy ground and to trample their sacred artefacts beneath the cloven feet of the warherd. Once the warherds are gathered into a mighty brayherd, the Bray-Shamans will lead the Beastmen in a frenzied ritual celebration, their discordant bellowing audible for many miles around. They invoke the power of the Dark Gods, and infuse the assembled herds with bestial vigour. Blood sacrifices are made and the gizzards and hearts of captives are offered to the skies as the Beastmen thrash and convulse around the herdstone. All manner of unspeakable excesses are committed before the ritual reaches its climax and the horde explodes out of the forests to ravage the lands of the old world". He said to her with pride of his race.

The more she heard him talk about himself and his race the more she was thinking in fear what if more of his kind are in the world of equus and what are his plans for all of them.

"Ok two more questions so what is this language you keep using?". She asked him in hope this will be a normal answer.

"It is the Beast Tongue the version of my kin for the chaos Black Speech, its the language of chaos, spoken by its servants and followers. It is the only language that can adequately express the mysteries of Chaos, capturing the mystical and the arcane in ways that no other language can". He said to her and drank more ale and eat meat from his bag.

"I am surprised princess to think after you heard me talk about me kin and you still stand not running in fear only seeking more to learn the more you remind me of my self when i was young". He told her and looked to the sky.

Suddenly Twilight stop to show fear and started to show curiosity, "how am i like you?". She ask him in confusion.

"Well lets start at my birth, you see in term of beastman i am a special case i was born not a normal gor but i was born as a Gave you see,a gave is a beastman child born to human parents. Throughout the lands of man and northwards, it is not uncommon for healthy Human parents to produce a mutant child. Some try to conceal their baby’s deformities, but most feel such shame that they give them up to the forests and rivers, abandoning them to die from hunger or exposure. The Beastmen are keen for the whimpers of these lost children. Such foundlings are always adopted and reared with the rest of the herd, since the Beastmen regard these infants as gifts from their gods. As they grow, they often become all form of beastman, but the rest of the herd do not apply the same stigma that they do others of their kind since they are holy (or, rather, unholy) gifts, and any Gave can rise high in Beastman society. But me i was a special case, my mother was a slave from the empire and my father was a chaos chosen the strongest of the ranks of chaos. When my mother give birth to me unlike most that give birth to monsters she was happy but my father he wanted to sacrifice me to the gods,so one night my mother and 20 more slaves had escape from the chaos war camp only to be hunted like animals,one by one the slaves were killed by marauders on horseback and warhounds til only my mother was left. She mange to run and run until she reach a large dark dead tree with a door in the center,she cry for help only to get an arrow to the heart and as i was near my dead mother crying my father came about to kill me for the gods when the door of the tree opened and she came out my caretaker,my teacher soria the deadwood crone. She was no human she was of race known as druchii and she was a powerful spell caster,she saw me on her doorstep and for some reason held me in her arms and made me her own. Now this is were thing become strange you see in the land of chaos time pass in a strange way so in two weeks of a normal year it was to me 75 years and in that time soria made sure i will learn all of what is to be part of chaos and when i was ready my last task was upon me". He said to her while he drank more of the ale.

Twilight was now more invested in his story then before,"what was it?". She asked him wanting to hear more of the story.

"To kill my father!". He said in anger,"you see in the land of man they say It isn't uncommon for Gaves to carry a grave grudge against the parents that have abandoned them. Typically, this results in the Gave killing and eating their parents upon reaching adulthood. but me it was personal i wanted vengeance, so one day after a raid on the lands of the empire my caretaker and i enter the camp and at first sight i saw the marauders that my father send to kill my mother so i did not think i grabbed a spear and shove it to one of the marauders head then i took his war axe and started to kill them one by one,after i killed 20 of them my father came out of his tent and i challenged him to a duel to the death. And we began the battle every hit i did was nothing he had armor and i had none but i wanted my vengeance and then he hit me with his sword on the head,i was on the verge of death hearing him taunting me,"weak beast,a worm that never should be born,useless like that broken slave that was your mother". And then i lost it i kick him full force in his body and then i grabbed his arms then i toke a deep breath and i did one of the spell only beastman can use i cast from close range to his face the Bray-Scream a spell that unleashes a howling roar of such intensity that mashes brains and bursts eyeballs.
Til his face was no more then a skull when his body hit the ground i roar to the havens and all the camp cheer for me and then that is when my true path began". He said to her as he finish his story.

Twilight was not in fear or horror but was amazed like she read a new book,she wanted to know more but Ezra cut her thinking with his words.

"That was five questions for know when we reach your home we will talk more". He said to her and both started to walk again to ponyville.

ponyville:

In ponyville at the same time everypony just finish to fix and clean the town from doe's rampage starlight was talking to Gallus and Sandbar about what punishment they will get when Twilight will return with smolder,the rest of the girls where helping the rest of the town,spike send a letter to princess celestia about what happened and not a moment later he received a letter from from the princess that she will get to ponyville as soon as possible and discord well he was sitting next to the Lammasu black-words and they just talk to each other when suddenly spike interrupted their conversation.

"You know both of you can help us putting everything back together it will be much faster you know". The small dragon said to them.

"(stupid lizard back in the dark lands i manipulate beasts larger then this town to do my every word if anything maybe i will eat him and no one will notice)". Black-words said to him self out loud.

"Oh forget about him you were telling me about your home world the how did you call it "the Plain of Zharrduk" i must say i never heard of such place or this language". Discord said to the Lammasu.

Suddenly rainbow all so came next to spike,discord and black-words,"yo what are you talking about". She asked them?.

"Well miss dash Dhar-hakchsdh was just telling me about the land he came from". Discord answer her.

"Who is Dhar-hak what ever the last word was?". She asked again.

"Its black-words name in the tongue of beasts". Discord said.

"(i miss my old body then i would have talk normal and better make that stupid pony my slave)". Black-words said to him self again.

"Hold on that is not your real body". Discord said and snapping his fingers to make a dramatic drums sound effect.

"(did you think this was my body you stupid deamon i am like this because of chaos mutation not be choice!)". Black-words roared at him.

"Well why didn't you say so". Discord said and he snap his fingers and a sudden glow was surrounding the Lammasu and then it was gone,"better?". Discord asked him.

"What did you do to me you filthy deamon!!!". The Lammasu was yelling at him.

Suddenly he was looking at discord and saw him smiling and the rest of the group just heard him speak in a loud strong accent.

"I can talk again,i can talk, hashut be praised i can talk!". Black-words said in joy.

"And now you can tell me about that land of yours like you said you do". Discord said to him drinking something out of a coconut.

"Fine fine lets see how about this the Plain of Zharrduk, it is the great mineral rich meteor crater that is the main population area of the Uzkul-Dhrazh-Zharr. It houses the capital city, Zharr-Naggrund and also much of the industrial projects. The Plain is choked with pits of molten tar, rivers of burning oil, massive stockpiles of coal and other effluence of industry, pock-marked with countless pits and mines and home to many thousands of workshops and factories. Nothing is able to grow there, but despite this the Uzkul-Dhrazh-Zharr remain in their ruined homeland because of its near-inexhaustible mineral wealth. Only one watercourse passes through the Plain of Zharr, the polluted River Ruin which enters from the mountains to the north and leaves choked with filth and waste". He said to him in joy.

The group heard him talk about his home land and were disgusted by this and then he said more about this place,"i miss it so much the oil,the tar and how can i forget the thousand upon thousand of slaves that worked to death or were sacrificed to the great hashut". He said in so much glee.

Everypony in the area stopped to work only to look at the Lammasu in disgust,but AJ was also very very angry,"what kind of hell is this place what kind of monsters are your kind!!". Applejack yell at him.

He only gave her a smile and said,"in Mingol Zharr-Naggrund the strong are slaves and the weak are dead".

Before things started to go south from there like the wind doe was running to the group with smolder on her back when she reached the group smolder started to get sick and she said,"never again". On repeat.

Starlight,Gallus and Sandbar went to her asking her how she feel and what happened only to get see her running to the castle and a sound of vomiting can be heard,"well i was wrong she can't handle the liquor". Doe said with a chuckle.

Starlight now with anger shouted at doe,"you give her alcohol!!!".

Only to get from doe a flat,"yes, yes i did".

"WHY". All of them shouted.

"Oh don't be like that it was just cider... Well i think it was cider i kinda repurpose the bottles in my 500 years of living". She said to them then she toke the bottle and smell it and had a face that was a mix of concern and laughter,oh boy i need to say sorry to her that was not cider". She said laughing like crazy.

"Well what is it?". AJ asked her.

"Let me let me". Pinkie said grabbing the bottle.

"Hey i want some to". Rainbow said also grabbing a bottle.

"So dear what is in this drink of your i never saw a bottle like that before". Rarity said looking at the bottle.

"And you never will the one that made the bottle is dead for like 200 years,originally it was mulled wine made with love extract so when you drink it you will have a state of euphoria,but when changelings where hunted mistaken for monsters he stop making it. Now i use the bottles for my special brew it contains fish oil,bone meal,mushrooms,vinegar and manticore poison". She said in a proud way.

Rainbow,AJ and rarity started to spit the liquor only pinkie finish it and said,"yam".

"ARE WE GONNA DIE". Rainbow shouted in her face.

"What no you just gonna have a hangover for like a month". Doe said and started to drink an entire bottle of her ale.

"Well i like it". Pinkie said while doing a burping loud as a bear.

"Why did you make such a horrid beverage?". Rarity asked her while she was trying to get the flavor out of her mouth.

"And why did you have to use animals for that?!". Fluttershy said in anger.

"What are you on about this drink don't contain any animals". Doe said to her in confusion.

"The manticore poison is from the manticores that i have back at my dad's place and the fish oil is from merchants that trade with me because i can get them items that no one can bring them". She explain them.

"And the bone meal?!". Fluttershy asked in anger.

Doe was looking at them like nothing is wrong and she aid,"i don't use animals for the bone meal".

They where looking at her with concern then at the beverage then at her again and then rarity asked her,"darling if you don't put animals in the drink were do you get the bone meal?".

She said nothing at first then she made a wicked smile and said,"take a guess".

They looked at her with more concern then Gallus took a sip of the drink and said something no one expected,i know this drink grandpa gruff have bottles of this stuff hiding in his house".

"Hold on that bird brain gruff is alive well damn i need to pay him a visit". Doe said with a smile.

"You know grandpa gruff how?". Gallus asked her.

"Oh it was a long time ago i had a thing with him when he was in his twenties but i called him ruff gruff if you know what i mean". Doe said to Gallus and giving him a wink with her one eye.

His eyes open twice the size and he said,"i gonna have nightmares for life".

"Oh i forgot to tell you all Twilight and my dad are going to show up soon so you need to tell all the ponies to get to their houses and not to get out till he will leave". She said to them.

"Why what is the problem with your dad?". Starlight asked her.

From another part of town suddenly screams of terror were heard and ponies running for their lives shouting words like,monster,run for it,is gonna eat us or save us.

"That's why". Doe said in a flat tone.

From the entrance of the town Twilight and Ezra were looking at ponies running and screaming like sheep.

"I don't think they know we are coming". Twilight said to the Bray-Shaman.

Ezra was looking at her unamused,"OH YOU THINK". He yelled at her.

Ezra started to walk to the town like nothing is happening and Twilight from behind saying to him to stop to better introduce him but he ignore her and kept walking.

Not soon after the rest of the group started to have headaches and they kept smelling something like swamp water and rotting bodies. Not a moment has passed and they saw a huge minotaur like monster in black robes,8 horns,yellow eyes,scars,a deformed arm and a long staff walking to them. His every step made the ground to turn black and dry,non of them moved paralyzed by fear even discord was afraid of this thing he felt it while discord was a more casual form of chaos that thing was nothing like that he was pure primal form of chaos.

When the monster was next to them they saw more of him his hooves had spikes in them,blood covered his mouth,a third eye was on his forehead along side a mark in shape of star with 8 points,his body was cover in strange letters and symbols,on his side he had a sword like cleaver the size of two adult ponies the size of celestia,a huge black armor cover in dry blood, fangs and a third arm behind his back that was looking nothing like an arm but a pincer like claw with spikes in it.

"More bhakari and other worms so weak that i can smell the fear of them from the forest". He said to them only to see discord then he opened his third eye and was looking at his magic then he said to him something strange,"a creature born from chaos yet your magic is not of true chaos you are no child of the dark ones you are but a mortal using its power and calling yourself a god!". The monster said to him in anger.

On every word he said they started to get more headaches like he casting spells on them,doe came in front of them and started to talk to him,"father can you stop using your miasma of fell when you talking to someone they never felt wild magic before". Only to get a flat,"fine". From him.

After he turn off his miasma the group started to move again but the only thing they did was shouting at the same time to doe,"THAT IS YOUR DAD".

Not so far behind him Twilight was running and breathing heavily,"why...did...you..not wait for me". She said between breaths.

"You where to slow and you have wings". He said to her.

She steered at him with a look of why i did not think of that.

"Anyway before anypony do something we will regret i will like to introduce you to". Before Twilight finish talking a sound of magic was heard from behind them.

A large group canterlot royal guard where standing in a battle formation and at the front was celestia in golden armor and a golden sun spear,"get away from my little ponies NOW!!". Celestia said to him in anger with fire in her eyes.

"Akhamshy'y Aks Feb did you come after all this time only to die!". Ezra said to her and unsheathing his sword.

"You will pay for what you did 300 years ago for what you did to the town of silent meadows!". Celestia said pointing her spear at him.

"Really is it vengeance for that town you want or for something else or somepony,what was his name of that unicorn ha yes grand master pure dawn of the order of the celestial sunlight,yes i remember him his death was like his body a delicacy". He said to celestia with a grin.

Celestia no longer could hold back her anger and tears and with full force she charged at Ezra ClovenBlight and at the same time he charged at her like a feral beast in a rampage.

Twilight saw what is happening and horror took hold of her only to hear a familiar voice calling her,"Twilight what are standing their like that stop that sun wielding lunatic and i will stop my father". Doe said to Twilight in a calm way.

Twilight nodded with her head and both of them went to the battle zone before someone will die or worse.

chapter 6: to understand the origins,to the past we shell go

the chaos wastes-the inevitable city:

In a dark tower in the bastion of chaos the lone figure known as lore seeker was standing near a window looking at the hordes of the Raven Host marching to the chaos portals to the lands of the empire and The Kingdom of Kislev,thousand upon thousand of deamons,beastman,norscan tribes along side the Kurgan and the Hung and of course the warriors of change led by the Chosen of Tzeentch him self Tchar'zanek, Master of the Raven Host. Lore seeker turn his view to a corner in the tower where he had an orb of unknown origin he channel magic to the orb and an image appear of the so called Land of Chill or to the ones that live their Naggaroth,the bleak and forbidding northern continent of the dark elves. The image came to a view of a city but not just any city it was the city of cold Naggarond and in this city of pain and malice a thousand banners of flayed skin march along side legions of the Nagarrothi along side the cult of pleasure and cult of khaine boarding the black arks, ships the size of cities full with monsters and slaves of the dark elves. And on his personal black ark the flag of "the dragon and the crown" fly high along side his black guard and his mother and lover Morathi and First of the Hag Queens he sit on his dark throne full of armor in pure black the Witch King of Naggaroth Malekith son of the first Phoenix King Aenarion the Defender prepares to invade his former home of Ulthuan from The Kingdom of Nagarythe, now known as the Shadowlands to take what was denied from him so many ages ago. Lore seeker change the view of the orb once more now to a land full of mountains but one mountain he was focusing on the former stronghold of the dwarfs of the Angrund clan Karak Eight Peaks the Queen of the Silver Depths its glory was lost long ago now a stronghold to the Bloody Sun Boyz the ruler clan of greenskins in the Badlands, inside the mountain hundred of thousands of orcs and goblins all at once were shouting "WAAAGH!!!" like any greenskin will do before war and looking at them all a large black orc warboss Grumlock and on his massive shoulder his best and only "friend" the Night Goblin Shaman Gazbag. And like a green tide they marched to the lands of the Karaz Ankor to do the only thing they do best fighting and winning for gork and mork.

Back in the inevitable city lore seeker was looking at the window once more and saw him walking along his honor guard the master of the Raven Host Tchar'zanek,and he said out loud to the room,"Where there is resistance, Tchar'zanek will transform it to subservience. Where there is faith in the false pantheon of the Empire, he will bring obedience to the Raven God. And so long as but one of our enemies lives, our great Warlord shall seek him out and visit the change of death upon him."—The Coming of Tchar'zanek,Liber Malefic.

"A new age will start soon,it was not so long ago when the legions of chaos and the dark elves besiege the lands of man and elf only to be defeated in the great battle at the gates of Kislev.... It is so boring don't you think?". He asked someone in the room only the room was empty.

He set on the chair that was made from obsidian and chaos steel grabbing with his magic a large flagon and started to drink til the flagon was empty,"i tell you this you can name any drink you want but the best drink of them all its the Bugman's XXXXX brew". He said putting the flagon down and closed his massive book. He was looking at his book with a what one can guess is a look of sadness.

"You know not many if any know this at all but life as a god is boring and the life of a chaos god is just annoying,we had a purpose a reason we were one in our goals but then my brothers started to gain power to much power first they gain a grip on the mortal world like all of us did when the Polar Gates now The Wounds Within Reality collapsed and we came to the world of that hubris race of the star travelers the old ones we had one goal to destroy it but then all was change when the four you all know as the chaos gods started to kill and devour the rest of the chaos pantheon we where thousand of gods of The Aethyr now only so few left some tried to deny them like malal only to fail except for me!". He said in anger as the room started to shift and turn to a realm full of nothing,then the room turn back to what can be consider normal and he lift his head like he was looking directly at something in front of him or someone.

"This book of my i never told you its name,it is the "Liber fell chronicla". He said as he opened the book at a random page.
"This book have a power not like any book it is self writing all the pages blank and when you tell a story it will start showing words like a normal book,all so to every story teller it will show the words in its native tongue such a thing to any one is something to have and never to let go". He said looking at the book.

"Well that was a nice talk but we do need to continue with our story,so we stopped when princess celestia and Ezra ClovenBlight clash with one another but then we learn that they had a past well in order to understand this hatred they have to each other we must go back to a time not spoken of in the land of ponies for its a taboo for them". Lore seeker said opening the book looking for the page he seek.

"Found it now lets start with the setting of the story atmosphere,it was..."SOMEONE HELP ME", ok lets start again it was..."HELP ME SOMEONE ANYONE", can you excuse me for a moment". Lore seeker said walking to a door in the next room.

"NO PLEASE I AM SORRY NO NO NO!!!!!!!". A loud sound of bones braking was heard fallowed by a strong voice,"i am trying to tell a story you speck of dirt". And then a sound of a soul was heard burning in warpfire.

He return to his chamber sitting on his dark metal chair opened the book and started to talk.

"Sorry for that now lets begin,it was a dark time in equestria war against a griffon warlord had torn the land and from within persecutions of bat ponies and what they call "moon worshippers" but in one town all will change when the war will reach it and with it history it self".

"This where the untold story of what will known as the 300 sorrow's and it all started in the town of silent meadows and the home town of one unicorn named pure dawn private in the silent meadows militia scouts and the order he will get that will change everything for the better or worse".

"And we all know in which path this will go".

Author's Note

we will now enter the 300 sorrow's arc have fun.

chapter 7(300 sorrow's part one)-her most faithful student

"our story begins in a town close to the everfree but all so a town unlike any other,a town all most the size of canterlot the merchant city of silent meadows all so known as "sovereignty of the common folk". A hub of trade of all things from food to pony sellswords,all are welcome to this town no matter what race but three rules be obey at all time. The first rule respect the law of the land,the second rule respect the ruler of silent meadows and the final rule STAND AGAINST ONE OF US AND YOU FACE ALL OF US!".

"now you probably wonder how such a town exists in the land of equestria well the answer is simple it was what they call back in the day a free town,you see in the equestrian dictionary a free town is a town not governed by a country but exists in its borders and can have her free independence as long as the free town acts as a vessel like country".

"in this dark days after a peace treaty between equestria and the griffon empire was made and a lone griffon warlord that did not support this act of peace invoked an old griffon code "the code of acquisition", a code that only a griffon noble can do the code say that a griffon noble can claim any land he or she wants but must do it alone with no aid from the rest of the griffon empire but if a griffon noble wants to join the griffon that invoked the code then that griffon and all his house hold swear fealty to that griffon til they finish the the code of acquisition or die trying. And that griffon warlord was razor storm brother to the griffon emperor him self and he was so angry of the peace treaty that he invoked the code of acquisition on all of equestria and from 22 noble griffon house holds 10 joined razor storm war on equestria.
Equestria and its army was strong but after the last war they did not have time to replenish the forces same as the warbands of razor storm so both sides did what any country will do they will hire armies from sellswords to mercenary companies and even if needed prisoners at arms".

"and our story will begin when a representative from canterlot was send to silent meadows to talk about aid in the coming war a young unicorn named pure dawn the youngest of the grand masters of the celestial sunlight order an order of ponies that where given the gift to will the power of the sun in their weapons and magic from their patron princess celestia. But pure dawn was special he was hand pick and studied under celestia and for him to get this task was most logic for he was born in silent meadows".

"and now lets go to the city gate and watch the past unravel before us and let the 300 sorrow's begin".

silent meadows-equestria(350 years before the return of nightmare moon):

The town of silent meadows the town of the common folk led by an earth pony known only by the name of merc the lone sword his origins are an enigma but some say he have a connection with the umbral pony clan for he was only in the color of shadowy black with a shade of grey and no cutie mark.

The town was full of life of all diversity,business was flowing,the sellswords(the prime business of the town) where drinking and visiting the brothels for "entertainment" and the city guard where doing patrols around the town looking for anything out of the ordinary.

A lone unicorn in the color of yellow and white with a cutie mark of a half of a sun and radiant sun light coming from it, the unicorn walk to the town gate the guard give him a sign to stop and the unicorn give him a letter with canterlot royal seal and the guard clear him to enter.

The unicorn walk the street when he saw a large crowd gathering in the town square he walk their and asked one of the guards what is happening.

"Excuse me guard what is this gathering for?".

"The town folk where restless this couple of days so we prepared a public execution of some minor pony noble". The guard said.

"Don't you think this is a bad idea you can all ways trade him for gold".

"No can do that idiot broke the law and did something very stupid".

"What did he do?".

"He drew his sword on lord lone sword".

The executioner came next to the prisoner and the city official began to speak.

"Do you have any last words before you will meet your end?". The official said to him.

In anger the pony noble said,"you will regret this i have friends with canterlot's court i will make sure princess celes". But before he finish his words the executioner axe cut his head then the official said,"i said words not sentences,well show is over go to your business". He said to the crowd.

When the crowd began to return to their normal day the unicorn give a small sigh of sadness and said to him self,"it seems nothing has changed around here".

"You got that right dawny". A female voice said from behind him.

He recognize this voice immediately and the one that call him in this stupid nickname.

"Tūval its been ages and i told you to stop using that nickname". The unicorn said to her.

"Oh come on you know you like it don't you remember the long nights in the alleys of the city". She said to him in a seductive tone.

The unicorn was not impressed by her attempt,"why are you here tūval after what happened 10 years ago we where given exile if somepony see you they will kill you".

"Well after you were sold to canterlot lord lone sword said to the rest of us that he will clear our exile only if we became under his employee". Tūval said to him.

"And that been said i am here to escort you to lord lone sword". She said to him.

"Ok then after you". The unicorn said back.

"Oh before we go i have one more message for you from lord lone sword, "if you cause any problem in the city we will gut you down like a fish and send your horn to that Whore celestia so she can shove it up where her sun don't shine" so don't do something you will regret doing". She said to him and she continue to walk.

After gulping his own spit he all so continue to walk with her.

While they walk to the keep he start to think to him self about his childhood friend tūval the wings of quill. She was a rare breed of griffins known as quill backs and were infamous in the arts of assassination,when they spot their target they will fire sharp quills on them and the quills will puncture holes in them plus they grow back after one to two weeks but tūval her quills grow back after one to two days.

They arrived to the keep of merc lone sword known as the fort of prosper in that fort some of the most famous mercenary groups dwell and some of the most deadliest individuals in the world as well.

They both enter to the keep and to the office of lord of the sellswords.

"Well from here you go alone i need to check on my team come see me when you are done". Tūval said to him and give him a kiss on the cheek and she left the floor.

He went to the office of the lord of the city and it was a large room full of rare artifacts,weapons and armor,books,mounted monster heads and a lockbox with gold and silver ornaments. Then from another door lord lone sword enters the room he set down and looked at the unicorn.

"Its been 10 years since i saw your sorry flank and you still look like a colt that mate for the first time".lone sword said to him.

"And you still look like pile of manticore shit". The unicorn said back to him.

"Tell me how is the feeling to abandon your town folk only to join some order of ponies that most likely take turns on that sun Whore rather then save their country from every enemy that confronts them". Lone sword said to him.

"It feels great better then live and die for nothing in this shit hole of a town". The unicorn said back to him.

They both looked at each other with anger in the eyes only to start laughing at the same time.

"Its good to see you again pure dawn how is the life in canterlot somepony causing you trouble are the nobles bothering you just say how and i will send somepony to have a small chat with them". Lone sword said to pure dawn.

"I am fine lord lone sword i am actually one of the grand masters of the order and i even became a student under celestia's wing". Pure dawn said to lone sword with a smile.

"I am so proud of you pure dawn and know this i am still sorry for what i did to you 10 years ago when i sold you to that damn sun witch". Lone sword said with a tone of sadness as he open a bottle of blissful euphoria and started to pour to him and pure dawn a drink.

"No need to apologize you were like a father to all of us and this was the only way to make all of my mess go away and i don't drink its against the order doctrine". Pure dawn said to him and giving him back the drink.

The old black pony stared at him for a second only to grunt and saying,"you know it very rude not to accept a drink from your host and this is not canterlot this is silent meadows your home and if i say you will drink with me you will".

"Fine fine, so i was sent here by the princess for...".

"Stop!". Lone sword said in anger.

"I know why she send you here she thinks just because you are one of the common folk i will agree to her terms for support in this war, well don't get me wrong i will send the best armies of coin i got as long as she have the gold to pay for them".

"Don't worry princess celestia will pay in full for all the support you can give i promise".

"I promise?, is that what they teach you in the city of lies". Lone sword said in anger.

"Merc i know you hate celestia but you can't judge a city just because you don't like it". Pure dawn said to him.

Lone sword was looking at him like he was looking at a colt and he started to talk, "first did i give you permission to use me name son don't forget i am the lord of this town not some harlot from the street. Second i never said i hate celestia in fact she is probably one of the best rulers of equestria you know beside the best ruler that ever lived "equenius the liberator" the founder of equestria after he won against the armies of grogar with the help of gusty the great, its just that i don't trust her after what she did to her own kin".

"What are talking about celestia don't have any relatives". Pure dawn said to him.

"She never told you did she well let me tell you a story you see that moon do you know the legends of the mare in the moon of the so called nightmare moon well believe it or not that is her sister". Lone sword said to him.

"WHAT that can't be its just something you tell the young ones if they missbehave how is nightmare moon celestia's sister?". He asked him.

"Well she is her young sister and her name is luna they got in a stupid argument luna turn to nightmare moon and a civil war opened in the land my grand grand father was a sellsword in that war under the command of nightmare moon. Not only that a very very very old relative of mine was an umbral blade an elite fore in the umbral pony tribes he was hired by king sombra to take out equestrian commanders and in his journal he said he made battle with a dark blue alicorn".

"Ok so why no one know about her?" pure dawn asked.

"After they did battle celestia used an ancient artifacts known as the elements of harmony but don't be fooled by the name they are known in this age,in the age of the king of monsters grogar the name of the artifacts was the regalia of the goat king. And celestia used the elements on her sister and she banished her to the moon rather then help her control her dark self".

"I don't believe it why the king of monsters had the elements only the pure of heart can use them". Pure dawn said to him.

"So what is the problem it say the pure of heart it is not say if you have to be good in your heart". Lone sword said taking a sip of his drink.

"Ok so celestia used the elements on her sister but from what i read nightmare moon wanted to bring eternal night so celestia had to stop her." pure dawn said.

"WRONG!,she was her sister you never banish or condemn your kin to imprisonment on a place such as the moon to be alone for 1000 years and go mad in isolation,if it was me i will help her return to her former self or kill her on the spot and end her suffering". Lone sword said in anger.

It was quiet for some time only for the silence to be broken by lone sword,"lets move forward on why you are here i will give her the aid she needs but i need you to do something for me i lost contact with our scouts in the everfree i need you and some militia scouts to see what happened and report back then we will talk terms. Now go do it fast and you will follow orders this is an silent meadows op if you see something that can be a problem return and do not engage the enemy". Lone sword said and he sand pure dawn to the task.

"And one more thing you are grand master in canterlot but here you are private pure dawn now go before i change my mind". Lone sword said and pure dawn left the room.

Some time later lone sword grabbed a key to his lockbox and opened it what was in it was no gold,silver or any treasure what was inside it was a eye that was still pulsing and looked at lone sword,he then started to caress the eye and began to talk to him self,"my love i know you hate me for taking your eye but i will make it up to you i promise". The eye started to show anger like it is screaming at him,"are you upset my love then i will sing you the song you so much care for". "they come they come for the smell of blood,they know they know what sins you done,you run you hide but they all ways see,for they for they are the rage of the everfree,so all the young ones be nice to all or the wrath of forest shell gorge on your soul".

silent meadows front gate:

Pure dawn was in the city gate wearing the militia scouts uniform along side him a team of militia scouts were preparing for their mission.

"Ok listen up ponies we where given a task by lord lone sword him self we go to the forest find the lost group then we come back quick and clean got it!". The scout leader said to the group.

"Sir yes sir!". They said back to him.

"Good lets move it". The leader said and they went to the everfree.

everfree forest:

In the everfree the wild ruled and monsters can come from any place they knew it but they had some strange feeling something was not what it seems.

The group came close to the lost scouts last location only to be stop by their team leader.

"Scouts scatter and take point behind the trees and hold your position".

They all toke point in the tree line and saw the bodies of their fellow scouts and next to them a regiment of griffon vanguard that made camp in the forest.

"I gonna kill those feather heads". One of the scouts said.

"Really how we are only seven they have 50". Another scout said.

"Our job is to see what happened and report back and we are going to do that". The leader said to them.

"Look they are doing something". Pure dawn said to them.

They all looked at the griffons and they saw two griffons bring a captive pegasi scout the rest of the scouts knew her she was a scout militia from the same time they join the militia force.

The griffons pinned her to the ground and their leader started to call to his soldiers,"so boys shell we go for another round on our pony entertainment". He said to them and they all started to cheer and laugh.

While the rest of the scouts were in rage for not doing anything suddenly they saw pure dawn taking off is scout militia uniform,"private pure dawn what are you doing! Get in that armor now and hold point". The leader said to him.

Pure dawn ignore him and after removing the armor he said, "screw orders this is an equestrian order business now". And he teleported from the area.

The griffons were about to "do their way" with the pegasi but suddenly they saw a unicorn appear out of nowhere,"in the name of princess celestia get away of the pegasi and surrender". Pure dawn said to them.

The griffons only started to laugh and their leader started to talk,"is that so you are very funny,kill him".

Some of the griffons started to get near pure dawn pulling swords and spears at that moment pure dawn started to glow and an armor made of magic appear on him along side two magic swords. He then cut down the griffons near him and he looked at the rest and said to them,"you chose poorly".

The griffon leader started to get mad,"GET HIM NOW!!!". And his griffons started to charge pure dawn.

Pure dawn began to use his magic sun blades and hit every griffon with a fast combo of sun blade dance a dual sword stand from the order every hit was precise and deadly. From the back of the forest the rest of the scouts join pure dawn as they shot the griffons with bolts and the rest of them grabbed the pegasi captive and bringing her to a safe zone,"we will go to the town and we will bring our wounded back,as an officer i will report what you done but as a fellow free folk i thank you so go and kill every single one of this bird brains". The scout leader said to pure dawn.

"YES SIR". Pure dawn said with a loud voice and charged the griffons.

The griffon leader called a retreat to what left of his vanguard and they all went to the deep forest but not before pure dawn captured one of the griffons,"you and i gonna have some talk bird brain". Pure dawn said to the griffon prisoner and he toke him out of the forest to silent meadows.

everfree forest-deep woods:

The griffon vanguard that remain along side their commander made a camp in a small grove like area in the forest.

"50 WE HAD 50 GRIFFONS HOW DID WE LOST TO ONLY ONE UNICORN!". The griffon leader yelled to his troops.

"How am i gonna explain this to razor storm". The griffon leader said with worry.

In the forest a large sound of stomping was heard and the griffons heard that and started to take position. What came out of the woods where timberwolves but larger,with red eyes and they had bones coming out of the body the wolves just incircle the griffons and from the forest hi came!, a large minotaur like monster but the griffons started to call him in a different name,"Arimaspi its an Arimaspi". The griffons said.

"No its something else". The griffon leader said to them.

The large monster raise his staff to the air and then slam it on the ground and yell in an unknown language,"Shyish Guar Fkhshdhbhmdhdhshchdh".

On that command the deformed blood soaked timberwolves charged the griffons with so much force that the griffons formation broke in seconds and what left was the dying screams of griffons that were eaten alive.

The monster called his monsters and talk to all of them,"summon my lumber brayherds and all the monsters of blood and gore we march for the hunt in the name of the dark gods,go now RIP AND TEAR FLESH AND BONE FOR KHAOS!!!!!!!".

chapter 8(300 sorrow's part two)-preparations for war

everfree forest-deep woods:

"No its something else". The griffon leader said to them.

The large monster raise his staff to the air and then slam it on the ground and yell in an unknown language,"Shyish Guar Fkhshdhbhmdhdhshchdh".

As monsters roared to the sky with bloodlust in their core and the bodies of griffons lay on the ground no longer look like living creatures but more like meat paste. The the huge timberwolves eat all of them how it is unknown but they ate and ate like they are living beings and not magical constructs.

All of this indescribable horror was all been seeing from the eyes of a lone small terrified changeling drone,his heart was pounding so fast that he felt he was going to have an heart attack,from fear i forgot to change his form but even so he knew his mission. "I must report back to queen chrysalis".

forward barrow outpost of chrysalis hive-unknown location in equestria:

The outpost of chrysalis hive was one of the key locations for changelings from harvesting love to spy on all other races,it was well organized and well hiding inside was battle hardened hive soldiers and some of the best disciplined drones the hive ever made.

From the sky a lone drone fell down and running as fast as he can to the barrow pass only for the guards to stop him.

"Hold!,how is it that you came back from your task from harvesting love from the free city of silent meadows and you have no love to show you have a quota of love to get so return to your job now!". The changeling guard said.

"No time for that i need to use the neural orb this is a threat level 10!,i need to talk with the queen". The drone said to him.

"Even in the days of discord we did not had a threat level 10 what can possibly justify interruption of the queen or to be a threat level 10?". The guard asked him.

The drone with his magic showed the guard what he witness in the everfree all of what he saw from the griffons vanguard rape the pegasi to the battle with pure dawn and finely to the massacre of the griffons by the everfree monsters and their master.

The changeling guard saw war and death since the day he was born that is what he was born to do kill and die in the name of queen and hive but this... This was not something changelings can face in the field of war its one thing to fight the army of another nation but what he saw was no fight no battle it was only blood.

The guard with a look like he saw his own grave told the rest of the guards,"let him go now!,and you drone i will come with you it will be faster that way".

They both enter the the barrow outpost,the barrow was nothing like a outpost but more like a hive on its own but unlike a hive it was more underground hiding from world as they wait for the order from their queen to strike. They both reach the neural chamber it was the center of command of the outpost hundred of drones connected to a large table like structure and giving order to the outside infiltrators with out the risk of them getting caught and in the center of the room was the neural orb the only thing that keeping the outpost and the main hive connected if the orb will shatter the outpost will be in the dark.

"Out of are way we need to use the orb". The guard said as he push the rest of the changelings out of his way.

He then grabbed a neural link nod from the center and put it on the changeling drone horn and from that point the drone was inside a private conversation with the queen of the hive chrysalis.

changelings mother hive-badlands:

It was a normal day in the hive the drones did their work and the guards did so as well but the hive soldiers they prepared for something that was never done before an order from their queen to invade and take control of equestria while its weak from past wars.

"Soon my swarm will take canterlot from celestia and her ponies and soon after that all of equestria will bow to me hahahahah". Chrysalis said to her self with confidence and a cliche evil laughter following her words only to get interrupted by a small voice," ah my queen?". The voice said.

Chrysalis shut her eyes and enter the hive mind and to her surprise she saw a drone from one of the barrow outposts but that did not surprise her what surprise her was the fact that it was a harvester drone not a neural drone and on top of that he was using the neural orb.

"You better have a good excuse for using the orb drone you know the punishment for what you are doing is to be recycle". Chrysalis said to him like it was nothing out of the ordinary.

"I know my queen but i need to tell you something". The drone said to her with some fear in is voice.

"Well what is it i am busy with the invasion plan so be quick about it". She said as she turn around and sat on her throne.

"Good good... Well now that you mentioned the invasion that i think its one of your best plans ever i think you... Should... call it off". The drone said to her.

"WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY". She said to the drone with anger.

"My queen if you just listen to me for a sec...". The drone said to her only for chrysalis to stop him.

"Who do you think you are one drone of an entire swarm to think you can just disagree and tell me what to do". She said to him.

"But my queen". The drone said only for chrysalis to stop him again.

"When i be done with you you will know why i am in charge and you are not". She said to him again and again.

Something was happening that time in the head of the drone something that never happened before to any drone he just lost it,"WILL YOU JUST SHUT UP AND GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR FLANK AND LISTEN FOR ONE SECOND,DAMN NO WONDER YOU CAN'T FIND SOMEPONY TO MATE WITH WHEN YOU TALK SO MUCH". The drone yell at chrysalis so loud that somehow the entire changeling hive mind heard that not only chrysalis hive but all the hive minds of all the changeling hives in the world.

Chrysalis and every damn changeling on the planet that was connected to the hive mind where looking at this drone and from another point of the hive mind a much larger changeling queen came to view and was looking at both of them,she was larger unlike normal changeling body she had an arachnid body,mandibles in her mouth, ten eyes,six long arm like limbs and three pairs of wings,she all so had a horn shape crown and ten large long spider like legs.

"Chrysalissssss why did you disturb THE ENTIRE HIVE MIND" the huge queen said to her.

Chrysalis turn her head in fear to the huge queen and in a small voice said to her,"hello mother how are you doing in this fine day".

"Are you mocking me child". The large queen said.

"No i was just...". As chrysalis was talking she started to feel like the air in her body is leaving.

Next to them the drone had no words,"h...h...high queen harak'na first of the changelings and brood mother to the tartarus hive it was not my queen's fault for the disturb of the hive mind it was mine i beg you let her go". The drone said to the mother of all changelings.

Harak'na heard the drone and drop chrysalis to the ground,"and how all this mess is your fault drone?". She asked him.

"I don't know but something start to happened to me ever since i came back from the everfree forest after what i saw that...thing". He said to the high queen with fear.

"Then show me what you saw drone,chrysalis his your drone join as well". Harak'na said to chrysalis only to get a"yes mother" from chrysalis.

The drone started to show them what he saw in the forest the same thing he showed the guard from the griffons vanguard rape the pegasi to the battle with pure dawn and finely to the massacre of the griffons by the everfree monsters and their master but when they view the large monster something strange happened something that was not in the drone view before or was it?,what they saw was the monster coming to the drone and looking at him then grabbing the drone and suddenly a large third eye opened and strong voices came with it then the drone's body started to twitch and he started to laugh,"hahahahahahahah i see you hahahahah".

"Chrysalis cut his connection to the hive mind NOW!". Harak'na said to chrysalis and as she did so chrysalis give a new order to the barrow outpost,"KILL THIS DRONE NOW". But the only thing that was heard from the barrow outpost was something not of this world the sound of screeching was heard from the barrow outpost,"what is going on answer me NOW". Chrysalis yell in the hive mind only to get her answer from a lone neural drone,"my queen abort the invasion...the barrow outpost has fallen".

barrow outpost 20 min ago:

"Out of are way we need to use the orb". The guard said as he push the rest of the changelings out of his way.

He then grabbed a neural link nod from the center and put it on the changeling drone horn,the guard then started to have strange feeling in his body, he saw in his mind the monster that control all the monsters then he saw it looking at him and with a smile it said to him something strange,"Tzeen Yuizz Sur Guwu Dhar Tarrh!!!".

The guard then started the cry in pain as more guards got to the room,"what is wrong soldier tell us,get us healing aid now".

Only for the guard to say one thing to them,"run". As the guard said it he started screeching like a monster then he started to change form to something they never saw in their life he became something large with hundred of teeth,claws and tentacles and worm like body with one eye.

The guard now a monster started to kill every single changeling in the barrow outpost nothing stopped that beast he just went on killing them the entire barrow was full of echoes of dying changelings and the blood of a thousand dead.

changelings mother hive-hive mind:

She was helpless,trembling with fear chrysalis just saw with the eyes of every changeling in the outpost and with the eyes of the monster changeling guard how he killed every single one of them,she then cut the connection with the outpost and the hive mind and started to vomit from the horror she saw,"what was that what matter of monster was that".she said to her self.

"That my child was primal chaos taking form". Harak'na said to her in the hive mind.

"But how discord was sealed in stone years ago". Chrysalis said to the high queen.

"Chaos comes in many forms child and discord's chaos is nothing compere to that of the four,but that is not matter for now i need to warn all the hives and you must warn your hive and call off all plans for now". Harak'na said to chrysalis.

As harak'na fade from the hive mind link chrysalis open a new link to her brood all of them,"all changelings this is your queen talking to you i am calling off the plan to invade canterlot this order came from myself and high queen harak'na. To you who wonder why the plan is off is... Because barrow outpost and all how lived their are no more and that place will be left alone and no one will enter it plus i want all entrances to the outpost to be shut that is all and to all of you i am sorry". Chrysalis finish her words then when she close the link she started to cry for the brave souls of the barrow outpost.

the free city of copper waters-hippogriff expanse:

Near the great sea the proud city of copper waters was preparing to send aid to their most loyal of friends the house of lord razor storm. In one of the taverns of the town many hippogriff sailors came to drink,eat and rest before going out to the sea for fishing and caravan of merchants ships.

All was cheers and laughter but suddenly some strange figure came to the establishment he was a bipedal fellow with pale skin and ash like hair,he had a pirate like clothing,two cutlass swords along side four strange small tube like crossbows and along side all of this he had one red eye and one yellow eye. He set in the tavern next to the inn keeper.

"What is your strongest poison?". He asked the inn keeper.

"Canterlot wine 70 years old". The inn keeper said to him

"Being me the whole bottle and get the next 10 rounds to every one on me i am celebrating a new job i got!". The stranger said to the whole tavern.

While the patrons cheer for him and started to drink some craw captains came to talk to this stranger,"that was a good deed what you did their say my good fellow what is your name and tell us this job of yours". One of the captains said.

"Well i don't want to brag but my name is Noxsilius captain Noxsilius and my job is to get rid of all living beings in this city". Noxsilius said back to him.

In a second all the cheers and laughter,the music and talking stopped and all eyes where on the strange figure.

"Hay don't even joke about something like that you don't want us as your enemies". The inn keeper said in anger.

"Well it matters not you all going to die soon". Noxsilius said to them as he finish his drink.

"Ya and how are you gonna stop us its one of you and all of us". One of the captains said to him.

Noxsilius started to laugh then he got up and started to walk to the exit only to stand with is arms open and looking at all of them. When suddenly a large explosion was heard and the tavern wall was blown away,what they saw behind him where walking corpses of diamond dogs and Abyssinia cats.

Then Noxsilius smile at them with fangs out and said,"fortune favours the infamous".

As he left the tavern while the screams of the tavern patrons was heard from behind all of the city of copper waters was burning and from the sea broken ships bombard the city none stop and in the city it self hundred of undead began killing all the town's folk.

As Noxsilius was walking among the city ruins he began to sing out loud to himself.

"Ahah, the blood runs cold
We take our loot but don't get old

Aaaaah, Oooooh
Yo ,yo ho
Yo, yo ho
Aaaaah, Oooooh

All hail the mighty, he's arise'in from the deep
With tattered sails and incredible tales,
We're caught in endless seas".

razor storm main camp near the equestrian border:

The warcamp of warlord razor storm was a stronghold full of well supplied and well armed soldiers along side his personal legion ten more house holds legions each one 3000 number strong. In the command tent warlord razor storm and the rest of the house holds lords going over the battle plans.

"Two legions will go from the everfree forest we will need to hunt down every beast,cut every tree and kill any pony in our way then the same two legions will start to build a second base for siege engines while the rest of of the legions will march to the free city of silent meadows and if they not surrender they will die". Razor storm said to his generals with a commanding voice.

Suddenly a lone hippogriff entered the command tent his body full of wounds but it did not stop him.

"Lord razor storm i have a letter for you about the aid from copper waters". The hippogriff said while blood coming from his mouth.

"Easy son you did well,SOMEONE GET A HEALER!",razor storm shouted to his griffs while he open the letter and began to read it and as he read it his face showed anger and rage he was so mad that he broke the table with his talons.

"Damn all the equestrians to tartarus!". Razor storm yell to all over the camp.

"My lord what did the letter said?". One of the house hold lords asked him.

Razor storm with anger said to him,"the city of copper waters was razed to the ground by a surprise attack of equestrian navy the report say no survivors we will not get aid from copper waters sailors. So in order for the conquest of canterlot to be done fast we need the city of silent meadows... Call the legions we march for war and conquest!". Razor storm said to his soldiers as all of them shouted many battle cries in his name.

canterlot palace,castle court-equestria:

In the palace of canterlot it was pure chaos the generals of the equestrian military and the canterlot nobility were in constant bickering on what to do about tax,equipment and ponies to use them,in that time princess celestia was sitting on her throne and the only thing on her mind was not the war or the chaos in the palace but she wonder if her student pure dawn is safe.

In all the noise of the bickering one of the grand masters of the order entered the throne room and went to celestia.

"Lady celestia i see that even here the only thing you can find is the bickering of the court". The grand master said.

"Oh grand master solar hope when did you came here?". Celestia asked him.

"I just got here my lady so may i ask you whats on your mind or who is on your mind". Solar hope said to her with a smirk.

"Wh...what are you talking about i wasn't thinking about pure dawn". Celestia said with a blush on her face.

"I never said anything about pure dawn". Solar hope said with a smile.

Before celestia give her response the pony greeter voice was heard from the doors,"princess celestia you have an urgent audience to address to". The greeter said to her.

"That is odd i don't remember having an audience today". Celestia said to the room.

"Oh i assure you this is something you need to hear princess celestia". A deep voice said to the room.

From the entrance a dark blue bat pony came to the court walking like he is part of them,as he walk to celestia a dozen guards with spears came to him and point their spears to his face,the bat pony ignore them and went to celestia's hoof and kissed it.

"Allow me to introduce myself my name is timore,count lua timore at your service princess". The bat pony said to the princess.

"And what can i do for you count timore?". Celestia asked the bat pony.

"It is not what you can do for me princess it is what i can do for you". Timore said to her with a smile.

"You see i have some valuable information that you desperately need of and i am willing to share it with you,this information is about the plans of attack of warlord razor storm". Timore said as he walk in the court eyeing the maids.

"And how you came to possess such information if you don't mind me asking". Celestia said to him in a royal form.

"I assure you it is real the griffon i acquired it from was most generous to give it to me after i "persuade him". Timore said to her with a fanged smile.

The rest of the court was disgusted by the bat pony but only celestia did not changed her form,"and what must i give you in order to have such information?". She asked him.

The bat pony turn his head and smile to her,"the only thing i need for you to give me is... One drop of your solar blood".

"Blasphemy!, guards arrest him now!". Solar hope ordered the guards only to be stop by celestia.

"If i to agree to this deal i need to know what is the target of the griffon army". Celestia said to the bat pony.

Count lua timore standing in his place said two words that shocked her at her core,"silent meadows".

At that moment celestia fell of her throne with horror in her eyes,she then closed her eyes and said to the bat pony,"you have a deal",then celestia toke a small dagger with her magic and cut her self in the leg and give him a small drop of her royal blood,here take it and leave and never come back!". She said to him in her royal canterlot voice.

"As you wish". He said to her in a deep voice and he left the castle.

"Send a letter to silent meadows and show them everything in this information and tell them that we will send aid to the city as fast as we can". Celestia said to one of the guards.

"Solar hope i want you to take 20 solar knights of the order,i don't trust that bat pony and i want you to fallow him". She said to the grand master.

"At once princess". Solar hope said to her and left the room.

Celestia was in distress and only was thinking of one thing,"i hope i am not to late my beloved pure dawn".

outside the equestrian borders-unknown location:

"Yes i got the blood i will bring it to your brother at once my lord". Count lua timore said to someone then he resume his march. Suddenly the bat pony stop at his place and began to smile,"you are far from home grand master". He said in a deep voice.

From the fog solar hope and 20 solar knights came surrounding the him.

"Its over you night crawler i know what you are planing if you think i will let you use this blood to bring back nightmare moon then think again". Solar hope said taking a battle stance.

Timore was only looking at them and started to laugh,"hahahahahah you think i serve that failure nightmare moon no i serve something much larger then her i serve the true lords of the eternal night!". Timore said as he was looking at the moon.

"Now ponies,BOW TO THE POWER OF THE MIDNIGHT ARISTOCRACY AND THE WILL OF NAGASH!!!".

As the words came out timore's mouth all around the fog strange figures started to come out only to reveal the terror before them,undead ponies and griffons from previous wars coming to them slowly.

"Ponies to arms kill every one of this unholy abominations". Solar hope said to his knights as they form their sun blades and began to attack the undead.

"Foolish mortal the dead never get tired,never show fear and never run from battle and in the end you will all join our ranks as their puppets. For my masters are the true heirs of this world". Timore said to them as they battle his undead.

"And now i shell offer you as a tribute to my masters,can you hear them they have come for your blood and souls hahahahah".

As timore said that a large shadow was covering the sky and from their a huge bat like monster came down to the ground it was the size of an adult dragon and with a shriek like voice all the solar knights and solar hope where paralyzed. From the back of the dragon like bat a large bipedal pale green monster with bone like armor and huge razor claws came down to the ponies and said to them with a deep voice,"FEAR ME AND DESPAIR". And following his words more undead start to come from the ground.

As the dead start to march to solar hope and his solar knights, solar hope with defeat in is eyes said,"celestia save us all". And he close his eyes and accepted his fate.

chapter 9(300 sorrow's part three)-the siege of silent meadows

city of silent meadows-dungeons:

The dungeons of silent meadows where no prisoner ever see celestia's sun are dark and deep under the city keep and if you listen closely to the inner gates you can hear the tortured prisoners beg for mercy. And on this night a new prisoner will join the ranks of inmates a lone griffon from a clash in the everfree.

Outside the dungeons lord lone sword and pure dawn have a nice civil discussion about what happened in the forest.

"HAVE YOU LOST YOUR MIND!!". Lone sword yell at pure dawn and hit him in the gut with a wooden mace.

"Cough...cough i did what any pony would have done". Pure dawn said as he was coughing from the hit of the mace.

"That was not your call to make,you had your orders and you disobeyed them. Is this what they teach you in the order of that hypocritical princess celestia!". Lone sword yell at him again.

"DON'T TALK ABOUT HER LIKE THAT!". Pure dawn shouted at lone sword while turning his solar form on.

Lone sword watching him without even flinching about his solar form only looking at him like he his a colt in a tantrum, lone sword walk to him staring at the unicorn eyes,"you forget something pure dawn i am very old and i mastered the full powers of the umbral ponies and if keep acting like a pony that think he is some chosen hero then i will personally send that good for nothing princess your corpse".

While both ponies argue the griffon Tūval enter the room,"ah boss". She said to lone sword.

"Tūval i am in the middle of something i will talk to you when i am done". Lone sword said to his griffon second in command.

"Well i don't think this is something that can wait,you see a visitor came to here bringing information about the army of razor storm". Tūval said to her commander.

"I see well tell them to enter anything will help us at this point and maybe help us fix celestia's problem". Lone sword said as he went to sit on his chair.

"Funny that you mention celestia oh well no time like the present you can come in now princess". Tūval said to the door.

"Did you just say princess?". Lone sword asked her.

But an answer was not needed because when the door was opened princess celestia along side two of her solar guards have entered the room of lone sword. Upon seeing his princess and mentor he immediately bow to her, seeing pure dawn bowing to her only made lone sword roll his eyes with celestia one of her unicorn personal aid saw the eye roll and express his opinion on the matter.

"How dare you show such disrespect to your princess "earth pony". The unicorn said to lone sword.

Lone sword raising his eyebrow and to the unicorn he asked,"are you talking to me?".

"Yes you are the only earth pony here not to mention the fact that we have a griffon among us". The unicorn said with a disrespectful tone.

"Really now well this griffon his going to shove that nice horn of your up your". Before Tūval said the rest of her sentence she was stopped by lone sword.

Lone sword got up from his chair and went to the unicorn and said to him,"you have 10 seconds to apologize to that griffon starting now".

"I will never apologize to such barbaric specie like the griffons and i will not take orders from an earth pony either". The unicorn said to lone sword in the face.

Lone sword unfazed by the response of the unicorn just looking at him counting,"7...8...9...10 times up and you did not apologize".

"So what are you gonna do about it". The unicorn taunt lone sword.

Lone sword turn his back to the unicorn going to his lockbox opening it and grabbing something out of it then he started to talk to celestia while his back his still turn from them,"celestia do you know that for thousand years ponies develop alternative methods to utilize magic after the age of grogar".

"Yes but such methods are base on using dark magic there for are banned". Celestia said in respond to lone sword.

"Yes that is what the common belief but the real reason for that is that the once unicorns that ruled over the lands began to fear the idea that non spell casters such as earth ponies or pegasi will start to use them against unicorns similar to this".

After lone sword finish his sentence a dagger came out of nowhere and was jabbed in the unicorn's eye,"IT HURTS IT HURTS". The unicorn cry in pain.

"And you see celestia i mange to find numerous amount of such trinkets such as this one". Lone sword said as he turn around to face them.

On his neck was an amulet in shape of an alicorn only this one had bat like wings to it.

"Lone sword how did you came to possession of the alicorn amulet?". Celestia said with a small hit of anger.

"Close but far from it princess this is not an alicorn amulet this as you can see by its shape is a nightmare amulet crafted by the very pony that is named by nightmare moon". Lone sword told her while he was twisting the dagger in the unicorn eye.

"Lone sword you need to stop using that amulet or you will be consume by its power". Celestia warn the old earth pony.

"Unlike nightmare moon that fell to nightmare magic i will not let the amulet take over me,i came from the infamous umbral ponies and you can't corrupt something that is all ready corrupted". Lone sword said to celestia.

"And you unicorn you had several chances to apologize but your pride did all the talking and now i have to show you what happened to the ones that disobey the law of my city".

As lone sword said his words he pull out his dagger from the unicorn eye and went to his throat only to be stopped by a golden aura of magic that was belong to none other than celestia,she toss his dagger to the wall,"this is may be your city but this land is part of equestria and i will not let anything harm my ponies not even you". She said to him in her royal canterlot voice.

Many live their life knowing the kind side of celestia but few ever get to see the princess using such power only in her voice,to all that were in the room they showed some fear but not lone sword he just stare at celestia with rage,his eyes started to show some green and purple coloring in them similar to the tyrant of the crystal empire sombra.

"how dare you to use that spell in this place celestia if it was not for my ancestors showing you how to use it you and your sister would be under sombra's thrall". Lone sword said to her with a dark version of the royal canterlot voice.

"Hold on i hate to stop such argument but what are your ancestors have to do with sombra and celestia?". Tūval asked her boss.

"Since you asked my kind are close to sombra's kind we are all shadow ponies but like with normal ponies and the sub race of the bat ponies, sombra was an umbrum the high born of the umbral ponies but me and my ancestors are known as the austero ponies". Lone sword explain to the room.

"The austero i know that name they where the most cold hearted ponies to ever live but they were gone never to be seeing again". Pure dawn said to the room.

"Yes that is true but we did not gone we had a deal with celestia,we help her take down sombra and we get our personal land to call our new home. And so we did sombra was to strong for celestia so we did what we did best we stab him in the back with an anti magic dagger crafted to close all magic of the one that the dagger hit and then we got our home the city of silent meadows were my clan sleep till the call to war will come". Lone sword explain the deal his clan made with the princess.

"And the reason i am in rage at the princess is because she dare to use my ancestors spell on me forgetting that it will not work". Lone sword said with rage.

"You mean the royal canterlot voice?". Pure dawn asked.

"Yes but our name for it is the call of authority". Lone sword respond.

"I am sorry lone sword but this is important we got this note about the full force of razor storms army". Celestia said to the austero pony.

"Let me see that... Is this real more then 30000 force strong why did you not show me this before damn it, Tūval come with me we need to ready the city for siege we have five days to make this place stand for anything they will bring". Lone sword said to Tūval.

"Yes sir". She respond to him.

"Celestia can you bring any help from canterlot?". Pure dawn asked his mentor.

"The moment we got this note we began to mobilize an army from canterlot they will arrive in two days along some of the order strongest knights and paladins". Celestia said to her student.

"Good now if you excuse me i have a guest in my dungeons,celestia i don't have a spare room so you will sleep with pure dawn in his old room and pure dawn while i tend to my business you can show celestia around our city like the market or town square and even the brothels i am sure you two can find something to do their". Lone sword said to them and went to the dungeons.

Both pure dawn and celestia where standing alone with a blush on their faces and pure dawn asked asked her,"so where to first".

silent meadows-dungeons:

"I am not telling you ponies a damn thing!". The griffon yell at the interrogator as he was coughing blood from his mouth.

The griffon had both is back legs broken and every talon in his front legs broken all so,his wings were defeathered and he had several burn marks on his body. Some time later lone sword entered the dungeons and went to the griffon prisoner.

"Leave us now". Lone sword said to the interrogator.

The interrogator did as he was told and left the room,after some time lone sword began to unbind and start to talk to the prisoner.

"I must say you preformed better then i anticipated,oh and you can change back now". Lone sword said to the griffon.

The griffon started to smile and in a flash of magic the griffon was gone and in his place was changeling with four eyes and with a pale color body,"but of course you paid me for my top performance and so i did unlike the stupid hive infiltrators we independent changelings do not take orders from a hive and we adapt to what the job need us to do and i have to say this was one of the better jobs i got in a long time. Six years pretending to be a griffon getting all the info on razor storm's chain of command just like you pay me to do". The changeling said with pride.

"Good now lets get down to business,i have one more job for you but first do you have the info?'. Lone sword asked him.

"But of course all you need to know about your foes to the most personal matters". The changeling said with a smile.

"Good,Tūval give him his reward". Lone sword said to the young griffon.

From the shadow a brown griffon came with a treasure chest the changeling opened the chest but nothing was in it.

"What gives were is my reward?". The changeling asked in anger.

"The chest is for you just not in the way you think,do it". Lone sword said and after that in a second Tūval shot her quills at the changeling and in moments he was dead on the ground,she then put his body in the chest and told the guards to burn it outside the city.

"Now we can begin our preparations for the siege". Lone sword said as he left the dungeons.

silent meadows-streets:

The city was busy ever since the news of the coming griffon army to the city,everyone in the city contribute to the coming siege from storing food and weapons to fortified building and the walls.

And in the streets all of the town folk unlike in equestria carry a blade all of the city will fight to the last and among them pure dawn and celestia where walking and the princess saw all of the town preparing for war and she was proud of all of them different species coming together to defend their home, as they walk a young colt stood in their way looking at celestia with eyes so innocent and celestia with a smile reach out to him,"what can i do for you my little pony". She said to the colt.

The colt with a smile asked her,"will you help us defend our home from the griffons?". As the colt said it his mother came and grabbed him,"what did i told you about wandering of like that,i am sorry for troubling you princess". The colt's mother said to celestia. "No its no trouble i all ways have time for my little ponies and yes i will lead an army from canterlot to aid the city, silent meadows will not stand alone". Celestia said with pride in her voice and the town folk that heard all cheered for her.

"They have a lot of faith in you celestia if only you had showed such faith to luna she would have not come to me for power". A voice said to celestia in her mind.

Celestia started to show signs of distress,"princess are you ok?". Pure dawn asked her.

"Yes i am fine pure dawn just a small pain from stress that is all". She reply to him.

Having concern for his mentor health pure dawn used his magic to teleport her and him self to his room in the keep.

His room in the keep was simple it had a bed,window,table,chair,door and a bathtub.

"Ok princess you go rest for now i will ready a bath for you along side some food". Pure dawn said to her and went to get some food.

Celestia laid in bed her head started to get hotter every second and when she closed her eyes for a split second she started to see things she never saw before in her life,a vast land of tropical jungles and in those lands she saw huge cities that in each one was a strong amount of magic she never saw in her life but her vision was cut short and she was standing in some temple and in that temple she saw a black fat bloated toad sitting on a floating throne with its eyes closed. She came closer to the toad but some strong force stop her from coming closer and she started to hear a clearing of a throat.

"You wonder far from your world spawn of eques you being here is not part of our sun plaque prophesy we seek another child of the sun". The voice said to her with such force she could not stand anymore.

"Who said that please show yourself". Celestia said not being able to move.

"So long as you here you are a threat to the great plan i will send you back to your world and we will sleep till the sunset comes". The voice said to celestia.

"WHO ARE YOU". Celestia cry in pain.

Celestia then saw the eyes of the toad opened,"I AM KAR'PAD". And in a second celestia felt her mind was torn apart and she woke up from sleep screaming and full of sweat.

"Princess!...princess! Calm down you were just sleeping". Pure dawn said to her trying to calm her down.

Celestia slowly started to calm her eyes were red and her body was shaking none stop,"so much power if such things like him exists nothing will stop him". Celestia said to her self out loud and then she started to vomit on the floor.

"What are you talking about princess what things?". Pure dawn asked her.

Cleaning her face from the vomit she turn to him,"i don't know what to call his kind he only said his name "kar'pad" but what ever he is he has so much magic in him that if he wants he can destroy canterlot even equestria but he did not called me by name he called me spawn of eques". She explain to pure dawn.

"Hold on are you saying that his not from our world?". Pure dawn asked her.

"I don't know and to be honest i don't want to know". Celestia said to him with fear.

"Well forget it for now princess lets get you to the bath then we shell eat". Pure dawn said to celestia with a smile.

She smiled back to him and said,"i would like that".

As the days went and pass the town was getting stronger and stronger along side the reinforcement from equestrian army even if compere to the griffon army they are few they now had a chance to hold back the griffon tide of razor storm.

Inside pure dawn's room he and celestia were having one last dinner before the great battle.

"Princess can i tell you something". Pure dawn said to celestia.

"Pure dawn we know each other for a long time now you can call me celestia". She said to pure dawn while she was eating her food.

"Oh sorry princess...celestia i need to tell you i fear the coming battle if we don't win all you have worked for will be lost". He said to her with distress.

Celestia with a smile got up from her chair and went to pure dawn and hugged him,"i know you are afraid pure dawn i am all so afraid of whats to come but have faith my student for harmony will all ways wins over war and hate". She said to him to cheer him up from his distress.

Both of them smile to each other but then celestia grabbed him by the hoof,"now pure dawn come with me". She said to him a smile.

"Celestia where are we going?". Pure dawn asked her.

"Its our last night with each other and we are going to spend it... In bed". Celestia said to him with pure determination.

Pure dawn had a huge red blush on his face but that did not stop celestia as they got under the bed covers for the rest of the night.

the inevitable city-chaos wastes:

In the dark city of chaos in one of the dark towers a strange visitor showed up from nowhere a small unicorn that not match the color of the city this unicorn no this pony still had the color of hope on him and that started to attract unwanted guests of the deamonic kind to the tower.

Pure dawn started to wake up only to find him self in dark and cold place he went to the window and saw only madness.

Monsters like he never saw before,huge ponies with burning armor and more then two eyes and then he saw it a monster the size of a mountain holding an axe that can split a gate in half it had a lower body like a dragon but the upper body was like a very very ugly diamond dog. A long all of the monsters he saw a huge raven holding a long staff,then the raven turn his head to the tower but before he saw pure dawn something grabbed him from the window and put him in a small room.

"How...how you ponies mange to get to my tower ALL THE TIME!". A voice said from nowhere.

Pure dawn turn his head only to see a strange figure sitting on a chair with a book on his neck his face not visible and next to him are to pale skinny monsters with no eyes and four arms.

"Well care to explain how the warp you got in here before i will tear you apart limb from limb". The figure said to him.

Pure dawn started to feel like he is about to die from the amount of magic in the room then he remembered what celestia told him a few days ago.

"You...you are the one is name is kar'pad?". Pure dawn asked him.

"Kar'pad? Are all ponies are idiots or just you,do i look like a slann mage priest did i turn to a huge frog when i was telling my story". The figure asked him.

"So what shell i call you then?". Pure dawn asked him.

"The name is lore seeker and you pure dawn are the fourth pony to enter my tower and it starting to piss me off". Lore seeker said in anger.

"How do you know my name? And what other ponies mange to get here?". Pure dawn asked again.

"Questions questions only questions your kind have not trying to solve the problems alone all ways seek help that is why the old ones abandon the eques project". Lore seeker said to him.

"Fine i will answer your questions,first i know your name because i know everything about that little world of yours and second the other ponies that got to my tower in order are,a black mutant earth pony by the name of Doe-khar she is the child of one of my champions in your world and boy the things i told her no wonder she convinced that griffon to attack your city,the second was an abnormality of a pony becoming a human well that was my fault for burning that mirror world and all the souls in it to ash and cinders but she his safe somewhere in the Border Prince Confederacy and last was a purple alicorn named twilight sparkle or in other words your replacement under celestia hoof but don't worry that will not happened for like 360 years. You know her castle is in a town called ponyville what kind of stupid name is that i preferred its precursor the city of silent meadows". Lore seeker said with a crooked voice.

"WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT ANSWER ME NOW!". Pure dawn yelled at lore seeker with confusion and in the same time turning his solar form on.

But in seconds the solar form of pure dawn shatter and dark razor sharp tentacle grabbed him in his throat and lore seeker opened one of his hands and in his hand an eye opened and inside it was a view of celestia sleeping. "Tell me pony how many". Lore seeker asked pure dawn.

"How many "cough...cough" what?". Pure dawn asked him while he is coughing from the tentacle that strangling his neck.

"How many deamons will it take to rape the body,mind and soul of your beloved embodiment of the sun,a hundred?,a thousand?,a million!. Lore seeker said to him with a deep deamonic voice.

"Don't hurt her i beg you". Pure dawn said while blood was started to come out from his eyes from the pressure of the strangling.

"That is up to you my little pony". Lore seeker said closing the eye in his hand and calling off the tentacle,while pure dawn was coughing trying to get his breathing to focus lore seeker got up from chair and got something from his lockbox.

"This my puny pony is the offering pin its a very nasty trap i crafted,if you stab someone with this pin as long as their blood is in the pin they will never know peace but here's the catch you can only do it on the most purest of hearts,do this for me and celestia's soul will not be harmed do we have a deal". Lore seeker said to pure dawn handing him his hand.

Pure dawn was thinking about it for a moment but then remembered all the things celestia did for him,"deal". He said to lore seeker handing him his hoof.

They both shake hoof and hand in agreement,"good and now". Lore seeker said while he started to hold pure dawn's hoof with force that it started to bleed.

"get out of my tower!".

silent meadows-pure dawn's room:

Pure dawn woke up from his sleep full of sweat he was looking on the room and saw he is in silent meadows,"why am i full of sweat?". He asked him self.

Next to him on his bed was princess celestia starting to wake up after their night together,"morning pure dawn how are you feeling...pure dawn what happened to your neck?!". Celestia asked pure dawn with concern .

Pure dawn felt his neck and felt pain he then grabbed a mirror from next to the bed and saw his neck it was red full of small lacerations.

"I don't know i was sleeping and when i woke up it was there". Pure dawn explain to her.

"Well let me see if i can heal it". Celestia said to him.

When celestia came closer to him to see if she can heal the wound suddenly the door to pure dawn's room was open and a familiar griffon entered the room she was looking at pure dawn with a smile,"oh i sorry to interrupt you two while you both "ready your self for battle" but lord lone sword calling you to the walls so don't take to much time...and pure dawn you got something its a letter". Tūval said to them and give pure dawn his letter and she left the room.

Pure dawn opened the letter and in side it was a small black pin in the shape of a skull and next to it was the letter,"when the time comes you know what to do".

"When the time comes you know what to do?,who send it to you?". Celestia asked him.

"Doesn't say but lets forget that we need to go to the walls". Pure dawn reply to her.

Before they got up celestia held him with her magic,"you know we still have some few minutes". She said with a smile.

Pure dawn return a smile to her and said,"as you wish princess". And both of them enter under the bed covers.

the walls of silent meadows-noon:

The walls where full of militia guards with spears and halberds along side ballistas,archers and spell casters. On the center of the wall lone sword and Tūval were talking with the guards and sellswords,from nowhere in a flash celestia and pure dawn appeared next to them. Celestia was in her solar war armor with her sun spear next to her and her royal regalia of the sun,pure dawn was in his solar form with his two solar twin blades and solar armor,Tūval had her griffon quill armor and metal claws on her talons along side a hand crossbow to use with a short blade and last was merc the lone sword he had a set of armor that show true fear to his allies and enemies,the austero obsidian scale armor and his family heirloom the dual glaive of the austero clan the "shadow carver".

"Look all of you outside". Lone sword said to them.

They all looked and saw legions of griffons that cover every part of the land. And flaying to them was a griffon messenger that landed on top of the gate.

"I am here to bring lord razor storm demands:first you will stand down and join razor storm forces,second you will surrender all the ponies under celestia's command and last you will accept lord razor storm as your new ruler. So what is your answer bow or die". The griffon messenger said to lone sword.

Lone sword put on his neck the nightmare amulet and his eyes started to glow in green and purple and in loud angry voice he said to him,"I CHOSE VICTORY!". And he grabbed his glaive and in one swing he cut the head of the griffon messenger.

"Activate the magic shield,archers and ballistas ready to fire on my command,spell casters augment all the arrows they will shoot. Celestia order your heavy infantry to hold the streets along side the sellswords,your spell casters are stronger then my spell casters so order them to provide long rage spells when i tell you all so when i give the command give word to the pegasi skirmishers to take down their siege engines when they will be two busy trying to take the walls and this is important keep the celestial sunlight order from the battle, for now order them to be in the points of the city i told you about to reinforce the shield if they will breach the gates then and only then order only some of them to aid us and if both gates and shield will fall then order all of them to join us. Tūval i give you command on the sellswords along side their captains and when i give you the signal shoot this magic bolt arrow to the sky for our surprise to razor storm. Remember if we want any chance to win we need to hold the gate till midnight that is twelve hours to hold this gate when midnight comes celestia will bring out the moon and then the rest of the austero umbral blades will awake from their sleep in the city tombs after that not even the storm talons or even the bronze flame company will stop us. Is everything understood about the plan". Lone sword said to celestia,Tūval and the captains and soldiers of the militia and sellswords to make sure they understand the plan.

"UNDERSTOOD!". They all said together to him and went to their positions.

"Pure dawn i want you to stay with me in the front of the wall to provide sun spells against the dragons of the bronze flame company. I will all so will use the magic from the many magic tools i have but i need to save my magical strength till midnight then i will use my austero powers. Can i count on you on this?". Lone sword asked him.

"Of course i will i am maybe part of an equestrian knight order but i am a silent meadows pony first, STAND AGAINST ONE OF US!". Pure dawn said to lone sword.

Lone sword then smile to him and held his hoof and said back to him,"AND YOU FACE ALL OF US!".

Lone sword turn to see all the soldiers equestrian,militia and mercenary sellswords and began to talk to all of them,"to all of you outside our city walls theirs a griffon with an army ten times bigger then ours he wants to take our gold,our woman,our home are we gonna let him take it from us?". Lone sword asked all of them.

"NO!!!". All the soldiers cry in unison.

"Good answer,now...LETS FUCKING KILL THEM!!". Lone sword shouted to all the soldiers.

As the soldiers began to shout in joy from the speech of their lord the austero pony looked at the vast griffon army at the horizon and said to him self out loud,"let them come...let...them...come!".

razor storm main camp:

The vast griffon army along side the huge number of sellswords made the last preparations for the siege bringing catapults,siege towers,battering rams,siege ladders,portable barricades and sappers. The griffon army was full of battle hardened infantry and marksgriffons but they lack spell casters that is why many of their sellswords were unicorns outside from equestria or zebra Shamans, but what the griffons had that silent meadows did not had was the fact that the griffons had more stamina and better vision then them.

In the main command tent razor storm and the rest of the commanders(minus two nobles) where going over the plan one more time.

"Four legions along side 4000 mercenary sellswords will move first along side the portable barricades and will place them for our siege engines to have cover then start bringing a rain of fire on them after you finish ready the barricades the other four legions along side 2000 mercenary sellswords will come to provide support with healing,ammo and zebra magic stones and be careful with the stones they explode on impact so if you drop them you can kill yourself and a few soldiers. Lastly after they will get tired from our attacks my legion will enter the battle along side me and my "storm talons" with the bronze flame mercenary company of dorgon the bronze dragon and his dragons as shock air infantry. And when i give the signal after we will crush the gates the last two legions along side 1000 mercenary sellswords will come out of the everfree forest and act as vanguard as they will enter the city first then all of us will enter,now prepare your troops we march to silent meadows FOR CONQUEST AND GLORY". Razor storm said to his commanders.

"FOR CONQUEST AND GLORY". They reply and went to their legions.

As they exit the command tent razor storm's squires got and put is armor on him his royal enchanted silver griffon plate armor and his enchanted war mace the"foe crusher" and he went to talk to his closest friend dorgon the bronze dragon. He enter the tent of the bronze dragon and in side he saw the dragon lay on the floor of the tent with booze,gemstones and female griffons,dragons and ponies with him. So razor storm grabbed his mace and hit the dragon on the head and the dragon woke up like it was nothing.

"You know one day i will rip your head of your body because you can't wake me up like a normal griffon". Dorgon said to him as he put aside the females that were on him.

"You miss the battle plans...again". Razor storm said to him while he grabbed some griffon ale.

"If you call it a plan every battle is the same me and my dragons are in the back and when the battle is almost over you send us for the kill its no fun". Dorgon said to him and he grabbed a keg of griffon ale and started to drink it.

"Well you can be happy you will have strong commanders to kill like princess celestia and merc the lone sword". The griffon warlord inform his friend.

"Your joking i get to kill merc the lone sword you don't know how happy i am. I met him once and he beat me like i was some whelp that got out from his egg i was looking forward to a day to challenge him again. And celestia if its ok with you i prefer you don't kill her". The dragon said to him.

"Why?". Razor storm asked him.

"Well i think that after we will win in time i can break her and make her my plaything". Dorgon said to him with a smile.

"You know what when we win you can have her,now get your wargear on and meet me outside the troops are waiting". The griffon warlord said as he went outside.

Outside ranks of griffons and sellswords by the thousands were standing waiting for their warlord to give the attack order. Then warlord razor storm along side dorgon the bronze dragon came to the view of the troops, razor storm in his armor and dorgon with a brass scale armor and a two handed axe made of steel and the scales of rival dragons.

Razor storm went in front of all the legions and began his speech,"to all of you in this war you made me proud and today the last battle will take place at this city..."silent meadows" the so call free city but after today it will be a proud griffon city and then all of equestria...but know this i fight not only for conquest or glory but our fallen comrades of the free city of copper waters they will be avenged. Now lets go and finish this for conquest for glory FOR GRIFFONSTONE!!". Razor storm shouted to his legions.

"FOR CONQUEST FOR GLORY FOR GRIFFONSTONE!!!!". The legions shouted in unison.

"CHARGE!!!!!". Razor storm shouted to them.

As the legions started the attack razor storm looked at the city and said to him self out loud,"this ends now!".

the walls of silent meadows:

"Lord lone sword incoming griffon forces". One of the soldiers said report to him.

"Equestrian spell casters on my mark...hold...hold.hold". Lone sword told them,then when the griffons started to get in range of the casters in groups he give the order,"FIRE".

The order was given and thousands of equestrian unicorns started to fire spells in a arch pattern and the sky was full of fire balls like its a rain of fire and one by one the fire balls hit the ground and the griffons and sellswords. They died on the spot and the ones that did not die were burned alive as they shouted in pain.

But that did not stop the griffon charge they mange to get to the position they needed to be and they deploy the portable barricades and started to bring the next wave of griffon forces along side the siege engines.

From silent meadows side lone sword give the command to all artillery,archers and spell casters to fire at will,"if you see anything that is not from the city then kill it!". Lone sword shouted to his troops.

While they fire spells,arrows and ballista harpoons the griffon army all so started to mobilize the sappers and siege engines.

"INCOMING!!!". Pure dawn shouted to the wall defenders.

And like that hundred of artillery barrages fell on the magic shield along side the zebra's magic stones and thousands of arrows. Each strike put more pressure on the shield and after hours of hits the shield shattered.

"Celestia the shield is lost order the order to provide aid". Lone sword said to celestia.

"On it". Celestia said to the austero pony then she took a stand and with her royal canterlot voice she called them,"order of the celestial sunlight to me!". And before the main gate 350 members of the order appear along with 3 grand masters.

"Members of the order aid the wall defenders". Celestia ordered them.

"YES PRINCESS". They said and went to help the defenders.

On the griffon side razor storm saw the shield shattered and smiled,"THE SHIELD IS DOWN ALL OF YOU CHARGE". He shouted to the rest of the forces.

Back on silent meadows side the griffon Tūval went as fast as she can to the mercenary lord,"lone sword i think its time for our little surprise". She said to him with a smile.

"You know what Tūval i think you are right send the signal". Lone sword said back to her with a smile.

She then fired an arrow to the sky and in the sky the arrow exploded.

Back at the griffon side some in the legions of the griffons and sellswords looked at the sky and saw the arrow that explode and on this point they started to kill their own comrades,then the word got to razor storm.

"OUR TROOPS TURN ON US!!!". He shouted to his commanders.

"Yes my lord just started to attack us for no reason". One of the nobles said.

"I know this trick,lone sword used it many times in his younger days. Weeks before a battle he send spies to payoff soldiers and sellswords and when the time comes if they prove they are to be trusted they join him in the middle of the battle and they cause problems in the ranks". Dorgon said while he crush the head of a diamond dog sellsword with his hand.

"SEND THE SIGNAL TO OUR FORCES IN THE EVERFREE,WE WILL STORM THE CITY IN FULL FORCE". Razor storm shouted in anger to his commanders.

One of his griffons took a bow and fire the signal arrow to the sky and after the arrow two more arrows came. But no griffon legions or mercenary sellswords came out of the forest.

"Where are the rest of the forces?". One of the nobles asked.

"Look i see movement from the woods". A griffon captain said to them.

What came out of the forest was not the rest of the griffon army but only dozen of griffon troops and a few sellswords. They where running and limping from the forest full of cuts and wounds all over their bodies,some of them even had missing legs,eyes,wings or the worse missing organs from their open guts.

One of the griffon captains of the legions in the everfree went to razor storm and the rest of the nobles. He had missing eye,wings and smashed beak.

"My cough cough cough lord you need to run forget this siege WE ALL NEED TO RUN!". The griffon captain said while he was coughing blood none stop.

"WHAT HAPPENED SOLDIER TELL ME!". Razor storm cry to his wounded captain but the captain died in his talons from loss of blood.

"Look something else is coming out of the forest!". One of razor storm's captains said.

They all turn to the woods to see one single figure coming out this thing had 8 horns, robes made of skin,3 arms and 3 eyes,black fur with strange words carved on all his body,razor teeth and sharp tongue,under his fur was a scaly skin and a sharp tail,the beast size was large as four adolescent minotaurs,on his head was a symbol of an 8 mark star,it had an armor of black color and red from dried blood,with his two front hands he held a huge cleaver sword that was burning and a staff made of a strange green rooks and dead wood and his hand in the back was long and had a pincer at the end.

"What is this thing what happened in the everfree?". Razor storm asked as he saw this strange monster and started to feel dread and fear.

the everfree forest-40 minutes before the signal arrow was in the sky:

The camp of the griffon legions in the everfree was busy then ever the legionnaires and the sellswords with them started to cut down trees and hunt some animals and a few monsters like manticores. And in the camp some of the legionnaires and sellswords where near the fire and talk to one another.

"I hate this forest its cold,full of monsters,poisonous plants and the trees are way stronger then a normal tree". One of the sellswords said to the group.

"Plus there is some crazy magic in here,they say that this was the stronghold of nightmare moon back a thousand years ago". Another sellsword said to them.

Then one of the griffon captains join the group,"you sellswords stop talking none sense and do what we paying you to do and start clearing the woods before the signal to join the main army". The captain said to the group of sellswords.

"Fine fine we are going". The sellswords said to the griffon captain and they went deeper to the everfree.

As the group of sellswords walked in the deeper woods of the forest they had a strange feeling that something is watching them from a distance.

"Did you hear that?". One of the sellsword said to the group.

"Yes it came from there". Another sellsword said.

They came close to some trees and from the trees came out a small squirrel.

"Its just a squirrel keep it together lets just finish the this task and get back to camp". The sellsword captain said to them and then he took his spear and stab the squirrel.

But when he stab the squirrel something happened the squirrel let out a scream so loud that his head explode.

"What in the name of tartarus was that!". The sellswords shouted.

But before they even knew it from the woods thousands upon thousands of growling voices came out in the form of timberwolves the size of manticores with red eyes and blood coming from their mouths.

The group of sellswords where to afraid to move but then they saw a huge construct of wood,rooks,bones and blood coming to them walking on two legs its look like a timberwolf golem but his head was of a goat. Then the huge monstrosity roared at them with a terrifying voice and the sellswords had on thing to say,"RUN!!!".

As the group of sellswords started to run one by one they got caught in the jaws of the monsters. Only one sellsword mange to flee back to the camp but when he got back he saw only blood and gore.

Thousands of animals and monsters came upon the camp of the griffons killing and eating everyone of them.

The sellsword wanted to move but he was to afraid then a huge monster with a staff came to him and grabbed him and said to him something in a vile way,"Uogu Qwe Baah!". The monster said and then he opened his mouth and tore apart his belly and started to eat him alive while the sellsword was still screaming.

back to the siege of silent meadows:

The huge monster with his staff took and channel to his mouth and he unleashed a scream so strong that all the combatants in the battle stopped fighting. They all were now focusing on this strange monster near the woods.

The monster then with a loud shout said in his strange tongue,"Qwe Phaos Shyish Sur Guwu Tarrh Yuizz Yuizz Yuizz Sur Akhash Sur Shyish Sur Khaos!!!!!!!!".

After the words of the monster a tide of hundred thousands monsters started to come out from the everfree with one thing in mind to kill for their dark master.

From the city wall lone sword saw the tide of monstrous hordes and was started to tremble in fear and he said to him self in his head,"so Doe-khar that is what you meant that my death will come from the rage of the beasts".

chapter 10(300 sorrow's part four)-ut simul stare,una enim mori

"This is a dream right?". A griffon soldier asked his fellow griffons beside him.

They turn their head to him and in fear and panic he asked again,"this is a dream right!".

Then a tide of monstrous beasts throwing them self on the griffon legions and the mercenary sellswords with unholy force.

Suddenly from the sky warlord razor storm and his storm talons honor guards along side the rest of his legion landed in the front of the battle line in front the first waves of monsters,the heavy armored imperial royal griffons took a strong shield wall formation while the storm talons honor guards with their enchanted armors and enchanted battle claws where in the air along side their lord. They activated their armor enchantments and suddenly the armor and weapons of all the griffon legions started to glow in lightning,razor storm not even turning around to his soldiers held is weapon high and shouted to all of them,"FOR GRIFFONSTONE!!".

And following him all of them shouted the griffon war cry and in a massive charge from the legions and sellswords from both air and ground on the monster horde.

As they clash with each other the griffons had one plan the ground force must hold and not break and the air force must keep the sky clear from any winged monster that will come to the formation from the sky.

The strange monster seeing the griffon resolve holding he lift is hands up in the sky and starting to chant something in his vile words and then a few seconds later a burst of magic came out from the monster. Suddenly A ghostly razor-edged pendulum materialises in the air above the the lines of griffon and monster alike. And on the monster command , the pendulum started to swing towards the army of griffon and monster, picking up speed as it does so the pendulum while looking like an illusion when it started to hit the griffons and monsters body parts from all of them started to fly in the sky with blood and acid like liquids raining down on the battlefield six seconds later the pendulum disappears from the sky.

As he witness what transpired in just six seconds razor storm knew that even if they will fought to the end no one pony or griffon will be safe as long as that monster still draws breath,not focusing for a second on the battle a manticore landed next to the griffon warlord ready to end his life. But to his luck his best friend and second in command dorgon landed on the head of the manticore then he cut off his tail and speared it in another manticore that was about to charge the formation.

"You know this is not the best time for daydreaming". Dorgon said while he cut off dozen of monsters with his axe.

"I know but we have no chance of winning their is to many of them and that monster that lead them its not a wild beast it can cast magic and it can use tactics when we and his monsters charged each other he knew we be close and he used that to kill us with this magic i never saw before in my life,so how how can we win against that thing". Razor storm said with desperation in his words.

Then dorgon grabbed his friend by the shoulders and with a smile he said to him,"to the bitter end".

Razor storm lift his head and return a smile to his friend,"you still remember when i said that to you in our first battle together,but you are right i am a griffon of house storm and house storm never backs down". Razor storm said to dorgon taking his mace from the ground he then looked at dorgon and said to him something he never said to him before,"i think its time to fight monster with fire,dorgon go wild". When he heard this words dorgon with a huge smile roared to the sky and seconds later 60 dragons with armor and two handed weapons started to cut down monsters and using fire to burn them,then 3 large adult dragons unleash turrets of fire on the monster line burning them all to cinder and last from the griffon war camp came 2 large wingless dragons that their scales were sharp and tough they did not have any fire breathing abilities like normal dragons but they were stronger in form of muscle mass,they charged the monsters destroying any beast in the way.

At the battle was going in favor of the griffons suddenly a flash of magic appeared before them and from the flash two figures came out in the form of a unicorn clad in a sun like armor and a griffon with sharp wings.

"Lord razor storm we have a message for you from lord lone sword". The female griffon said to him.

"And what message the lord of the free city have for me,we are busy in a battle for our life". Razor storm said to her not even looking at them.

"The message is "i know how to destroy that monster" so care to listen to what we have to say?". The griffon asked him.

Razor storm turn his head to them,"i am listening". He said to the griffon female.

"Nice step one is done,ok first my name is Tūval and this unicorn here is pure dawn and our lord and princess celestia found a way to kill that goat monster but in order for that to happened the only demand he have is that we join forces". Tūval said to the griffon warlord in her cheerful way.

"Fine i agree to his terms but tell your lord and to the princess that all of my forces are coming wounded included". Razor storm said to Tūval.

"Very well,now that we are allies its best that you order your troops to retreat to the city we will go to inform lone sword,so pure dawn if you may". As she said that to pure dawn his horn started to glow and they disappear.

"Give the army the order to retreat to silent meadows make sure to bring all the wounded with us,dorgon call your dragons to join us but the five big ones will stay in the battle to provide cover all so i will keep one legion and 500 sellswords to hold the line if somehow the large dragons will fail". Razor storm said to his commanders and to dorgon.

Once the order was given the griffon legions started to grab all the wounded and supplies they could carry with them to the city they once tried to siege. While the legions were on the march one of the legions along side of 500 sellswords where left on the battle to cover the rest of the army and with them the five large dragons from the bronze flame mercenary company plus 10 other dragons that dargon order them to provide heavy support to the legion that was covering the army.

When the griffon army started to arrive to the city gate they waited in silence to see if the lord of the free city will honor his words and will open the gates to razor storm and when doubt started to cloud the mind of the army the gates of silent meadows started to open and the griffon army started to enter,in front of the army razor storm and dorgon met lone sword and princess celestia,they looked at each other and to break the silence lone sword came close to the griffon warlord and said to him,"welcome to silent meadows".

Outside the city near the everfree the large monster was standing watching the griffon army enter the city and his monsters burning from the dragons but what came to his face was not rage or anger but joy,he then lift his arm to the air and a deformed crow landed on it the beast whisper something to the crow and send it to the city once the crow was on the path to silent meadows the monster started to return to the forest but then he heard a voice,"stop!". The voice said to him in demand.

The beast stop and turn around to see a purple dragoness with some green scales on her back she was not one of the dragons from razor storm army for what reason she came to the Bray-Shaman only she knew.

Compared to the Bray-Shaman she was slightly bigger but never saw something like him and that give him the advantage so for now the best thing to do his learn everything about that thing.

"I see you stopped when i said it that mean you can understand me correct,so you won't be bother if i ask you some questions?". The dragoness asked the beast.

The monster just looked at her growling and making crude grunts, roars and gestures,his hooves made a movement like pose as if he was going to charge her but the dragoness did not move from her spot. Then the monster stopped his crude grunts, roars and gestures and stand to his full height and then she saw that he is much larger then what she first saw. The beast then grabbed from is side a body of mutilated griffon and next to the dragoness he started to devour it,every piece of the body started to make sounds of bone cracking and blood pouring out of the mouth of the beast and when he was done eating he looked at the dragoness again doing nothing.

"So now that you done with your food are we going to talk or not". The dragoness said to him with a cold voice.

The beast watch the city gates close and started to smile,looking at the dragoness and opening his mouth,"tell me dragon what good will come from talking to me,talking to me is like for the sheep to talk to the wolf at the end you will die and i will feed on your flesh". The monster said to her stomping on the skull of the griffon he ate.

"But i will amuse you before i will kill you and all of the livestock in that city,so what do you wish to know". The monster said to her with a smile full of razor sharp teeth.

"Well it would be nice to know your name and why you are doing this for start". She asked him.

"My name is no matter for someone that is going to die but the bhakari started to call me The rage of the everfree for some reason and for the why i am doing all of this well because i was born and forge to do it". The monster said to her with a loud laugh and smile.

"Well now that i have my answer i have only one thing to say". The dragoness grabbed a long sword from next to her and her green scales started to glow,"in order to save all of them you must die!". And she unleashed a fire breath so strong and long it lasted for 3 minutes.

As the flames started to fade in the place of the monster was a burning corpse she looked at the charred corpse for a second and said to her self,"not so strong are you". But before she left the charred corpse it started to fade. And before she reacted from behind her the monster grabbed her wings with his arms and with his third arm he grabbed her neck."don't worry i will not kill you yet for i need your flesh and soul for my last creation before this city will fall,but one thing i am sure off i will not need your wings for that". And with that words he tore off her wings along side some of her flesh and bone,and she roared with pain and tears as she was dragged to the forest for his plans.

the walls of silent meadows:

Inside the city the citizens of silent meadows were aiding wounded of both the griffon army and equestrian army while rest of the force was reinforcing the walls and gate the commanders of the new coalition giving orders to the troops and the main commanders of the coalition merc the lone sword,princess celestia and razor storm where talking about a new strategy that will help them bring victory over the forces of the monsters from the everfree.

"So what is this strategy you got that will destroy that monster lone sword?". Razor storm asked the austero pony.

"Yes i am all so wandering what you plan for bringing down this beast". Celestia said to lone sword.

"Well in order to beat this thing first you need to know what we are facing,this thing i don't know its origin i know that the last time it was mentioned was 150 years ago and the name that they give it was The rage of the everfree". Lone sword said to celestia and razor storm.

The two looked at him like they are talking to a mad pony,"are you serious you telling me that what just killed my griffons is a legend from 150 years ago". Razor storm said in disbelief.

"Well believe me or not this is the truth and if the legend is like they say it is then all of the monsters that coming from the forest will not stop till we kill the one that control them or they will kill us". Lone sword said to the griffon warlord.

"So how do we stop this rage of the everfree?". Celestia asked him.

"We hold the city against the tide of monsters till midnight when midnight will come the rest of the austero umbral blades will awake from sleep then we will hold till the one that control them will show himself when he does we will focus our strongest individuals to target only him then celestia will bring the last hit with the elements of harmony. Is that a plan to your liking?". Lone sword asked them.

They both nodded to him in agreement.

"Good now lets talk about...". Before lone sword explain the rest of the plan the door to his office opened in force and his second in command Tūval was standing their with a serious look on her face.

"Lord lone sword we have a problem".

Back on the walls of the city the soldiers where looking at a crow but it was larger then a normal crow and full of deformed body parts like a crooked beak and dead eyes,the crow landed on one of the flag poles and just started to look at the ponies and griffons. The leaders of the coalition came outside to look at what bothering the army,then the crow started to talk in a voice that sounded like the monster from before.

"To all of the cattle in the walls of your stone city hear my words-"your walls will fall...your faith will fail...your flesh will tear!". You stand before the warherd of the ClovenBlight and in the name of the four all of you old,young,male or female will suffer my rage as i will carve a bloody path to your home and burn it for the gods. Now let us begin and with our bodies die in a bloody climax we will become closer to the gods...ALL IS KHAOS". The words from the crow stopped and then he explode.

After some time from the everfree the monster that refer to himself as clovenblight walk with staff in the air,one of the flaying dragons saw him and went to burn him. But when the staff started to emit a sick dark green glow a huge roar came out of the forest and when the dragon turn to see what made the voice then a giant mouth made of wood and stone came from the woods and grabbed the dragon from the neck and with one bite he tore his neck from his body. And as the dragon fell a huge dragon made of wood and stone bigger then the dragons on their side came to the sky. The head was made of stone and green magic came out of his eyes,his body was wood and stone and his wings where made of wood but cover in green dark magic.

When the huge timberWyvern roared large sharp trees started to come from the ground to the air to the direction of the dragons. The dragons evade the trees but one of the trees hit one of the dragons wings forcing him to land.

Clovenblight with a loud bestial roar and then wave after wave of timberwolves,manticores,timberwolf golems,timberdrakes and hydras came out of the forest and were on a rampage in the direction of the city. The 3 dragons on the ground did not mange to hold their line and the horde of beasts killed them like they were nothing,the last large dragon was dueling the massive timberWyvern in the sky and in the ground the legion and sellsword that stayed behind took a shield wall formation to hold the tide while the 15 dragons provide cover from above. When all seems lost they started to hear artillery fire along side magic and rain of arrows coming from the city hitting the monsters with all they got.

Then from the walls razor storm looked at his griffons and then at lone sword and celestia,"how long till midnight". He said to them.

"30 minutes". Lone sword said to him.

"Then i will give you this 30 minutes". Razor storm said to him and he jump from the wall and started to fly and with a tremendous shout he call,"FOR GRIFFONSTONE!!". And following him was all the legions of the griffon army and the dragons of bronze flame.

"Razor storm don't do this you will die!". Celestia cry to him.

"Then i will die a griffon". And with that all of the griffon army with a strong push from the sky turn the tide once more against the monsters horde.

Now in the sky the battle was in favor of the coalition and with all the griffons blocking the path of the monsters clovenblight made is move trying to cast more of his magic of ulgu. But from the sky a dragon clad in bronze landed near him and stopping his casting.

"If you want to do your tricks then you better kill me first,now show me what you made of". Dorgon said with his axe in his hands and with a smile.

In return to his words Ezra ClovenBlight put his staff in his third arm and got his cleaver sword,the sword started to burn in rage and with a roar the Bray-Shaman said,"Akhash Sur Guwu Akhash Tarrh". And they both clash with each other full force.

The battle was long and hard the griffons only had one job to hold the line but the monsters did not care they only saw them as meat for the slaughter. In the sky the dragons did a lot of damage to the timberWyvern but in the same time they lost 20 dragons and 4 large dragons,the ground force mange to thanks to the fire support from the city,razor storm and his honor guard stood as a spear point at the front and then they saw it the mad duel between dorgon and clovenblight. It was like to see two monsters battling each other,sparks from their weapons in the air,the ground became mud and blood came out of both of them but the most terrifying part was that they both smile.

"Yes this is what i wanted,this is the battle i saw in my dreams you beast tell me your name,tell me the name of the one that manage to offer me a challenge!". Dorgon roared with a smile to the beast.

"I am your end". The beast said and he lift his sword up to cut the bronze dragon but the dragon stop the blade with his hand and with his second hand he did the same thing only with his axe and like him the Bray-Shaman stopped the axe with his hand. "Well that battle was fun but this is where you die!!". Dorgon said to the monster and he unleashed a bronze flame so strong the heat started to melt the metal next to him. But what he saw was the skull of the monster looking at him with rage its flesh started to regenerate and with a smile he said to him,"i...am...ETERNAL!!!". And with that in point blank he unleashed a Bray-Scream with such intensity that the eyes of dorgon burst. Dorgon in pain started to swing his axe all around trying to hit his target,razor storm saw his friend but he did not make it in time and the huge cleaver sword pierce the back of the dragon and he lift him in the air with it and then he toss him to the side and unleashed a roar of victory.

His friend dead,his rage taking hold and lightning started to come from his mace and armor he charged the Bray-Shaman,he landed a hit on the head of the monster but nothing the wound just regenerate again,the monster put his sword aside and grabbed his staff and started to battle the griffon warlord.

"You will pay for what you done,you hear me you will pay!!". Razor storm shouted in anger to the beast.

"Foolish mortal look around you,your army is broken and the age of chaos will begin,"splintermaw burn the gate!!!". The Bray-Shaman call to his timberWyvern.

The massive timberWyvern then grabbed the last large dragon by the neck and drag both of them from the sky to the gate of the city and in a burning inferno they hit the gate and the gate was no more.

back at the city:

"Damage report,give me damage report". Lone sword yell to his militia.

"The gate is in ruins,the collision with the fire killed 40 sellswords and 60 wounded". The militia captain reported to lone sword.

"Damn it,celestia how long till midnight?". He asked the princess.

Celestia while she was trying to heal the wounded turn to him and said,"10 minutes".

"Everypony hold the walls we all most ready for the offensive just hold the...". Lone sword stopped talking when a sound of rumbling was heard from outside the ruined gate,"oh what now". Lone sword said to himself.

From outside the gate the upper half of the now burning timberWyvern was holding the walls and roared to the wall defenders.

"Somepony take out that thing before it will destroy the walls". Lone sword yelled to his forces.

And before the massive half timberWyvern did more damage to the walls a long golden sun spear pierce the head of timberWyvern and with a burst of magic the beast was force down from the walls. Lone sword turn his head and saw celestia with a much more serious look on her face,when the spear returned to her she looked back at lone sword,"7 minutes". She informed him.

Outside the city on the battlefield the griffons mange to hold the tide but with heavy losses from 25500 griffons only 9300 left and what left of the bronze flame mercenary company from 65 dragons only 10 left standing but somehow they mange to beat the forces of thousands upon thousands of monsters. Razor storm now was wounded along side the last 10 dragons surrounded the shaman,"for all that you done today we will cast you to the depth of tartarus". Razor storm said to ClovenBlight only to get the sound of mad laughter from the Shaman,"what so funny beast". Razor storm said in anger to the Shaman.

"You think this is all of my herd,you think you can kill khaos this is far from over,all of this battle was for one purpose to invoke the power of all the rage and madness to fuel my last and strongest force,so with that allow me to introduce to you all the "lumbergors". ClovenBlight said to the griffon army.

And like he said somethings started to come out of the forest monsters made of wood,stone and fell magic each the size of minotaurs they all had hooves and horns and look like goats,sheep and cows,they had sharp hands and arms that look like axes and maces last was their eyes not green like the other timber monsters of the everfree but they were red like blood. Along side the monsters were manticore size timberwolves with tusks and poisonous acid dripping their mouth. They all looked at them growling and making crude grunts, roars and gestures and last ClovenBlight lift his staff to the air and said,"Shyish Guar Mll".

On his command thousands upon thousands of lumbergors and chaos timberwolves charged the griffons in full force. When the battle first started the griffons held the line against the monsters but now it was not a battle it was a bloodbath the ClovenBlight warherd overwhelmed the griffon force and in a few minutes every last of the griffon army was dead only razor storm still stand bloody and wounded. Slowly ClovenBlight walk to the all most dead griffon,he then lift him in the air by is head and in a second he tore off his head from his body and he toss the body to the side,he then lift the head to the air and roared in victory. After he finish to show the head of the fallen griffon he pointed with his staff to the city and said to his lumbergor herds,"Qwe Sho Baah, Yuizz Bhakari!". And in a massive roar all of them charged to city.

Back at the city they all saw the death of the griffon army and the now massive charge from the new force of monsters,but then midnight came and the city tombs started to glow in a shadowy dark color and on the walls lord lone sword like the tombs started to glow. He then turn to what left of the army and said in a dark low voice of anger,"now the umbral blades of the austero will show them death".

chapter 11(300 sorrow's part five)-silent meadow no longer

So now that we on the same page lets return to the last days of silent meadows and watch history in the making,enjoy i know i will".

battle of silent meadows:

part one-last defense of the walls:

"Now the umbral blades of the austero will show them death".

Like shadowy ghosts they started to appear in the main gate their face was cover in black bandages only purple and green eyes were seeing,larger then the average pony but more slim and skinny they were all earth ponies with umbral weapons and umbral magic that only the members of the austero can use the "austero path",a strange and forgotten form of shadow magic that everypony can learn but in exchange they abandon their former life.

They started to come to the walls all 150 of them they were the last of the austero ponies under the command of their clan leader they said no words,express no emotion like they were not even alive.

Everypony that saw them was afraid from them they were a living legends from a time were even if you had all the power in the world if they came for you then you are as good as dead but celestia she knew why the act like this. Everypony have a unique trait earth ponies use magic on the ground,pegasi can fly and manipulate the weather,bat ponies can see in the dark,fly and eat meat,unicorns can cast magic on everything with their horns,umbral ponies can manipulate shadows and use dark magic better then a normal pony and alicorns can do all depend on what was their original pony type before their ascension, but the austero their trait was a skill that made them the killers they were. They were the only sub class of ponies that can turn off all form of emotion and be in a state of total apathy that is why they were the perfect assassins but when they all work together in a battle scenario they will use terror tactics and will focus on taking down enemy leaders in the confusion. Unfortunately what they will fight against are not a living being but an army of constructs that show no fear so they will need to fight them by outsmarting them.

Outside the city the thousands of what left of ClovenBlight's warherd charged towards the city trampling all the corpses of the dead griffon legions and their sellswords along side the monsters they stopped from coming to the city. While the chaos timberwolves charged first to break the defenders formation that were holding the way into the city from the now ruined gate the rest of the warherd the so called lumbergor herds where taking pieces of weapons and armor from the dead all over the battlefield from swords,spears,clubs,axes and armor to even body parts of monsters,some of this lumbergors as they were called by the Bray-Shaman ignored the looting of the dead and join the chaos timberwolves in their charge.

From the city they started to fire every last shot of the artillery batteries along side every long range spells on the lumbergors that where looting the dead,from the walls every last archer started to fire burning arrows at the charging massive timberwolves and lumbergors with them sellswords that where in the griffon army now under the command of lone sword took what left of the zebra magic stones they had and started to throw them on the horde of monstrous constructs with the aid of the spell casters and some of the archers to send them further on the charging beasts. But even after all of that storm of range attacks many of the chaos timberwolves and lumbergors were still on a charge to the city,then a single arrow glowing in solar magic of celestia was shot to the sky and with that signal they started to came from the clouds 2000 pegasi skirmishers of the equestrian army and like rain from above thousands of volley of arrows dropped on the hordes killing many of them,when all ammunition was gone every soldier and civilian took their weapons preparing for the tide of monsters to enter the city.

On the wall lone sword and celestia turn to all of city defenders and started to give one last speech before the full force of ClovenBlight will break in to the city.

"Ponies of equestria and creatures of all species hear us,we stand on the point of no return what we are facing is not something any creature ever face in war,what stand between the rest of the world and those things that wish to destroy it is only us this city that we build to show that all are welcome in it. This may seems like we don't stand a chance they outnumber us and no help will come but as your lord and my sun we will be triumphant so we only ask you one thing to fight not for us but for your home,for your family,for silent meadows!,for equestria! And for all of equus!!!". Both leaders said to their soldiers with vigor.

And follow them with a tremendous battle cry all of the city in unison said together,"FOR EQUUS!!!".

"Now stand with us and show them what we made of!". Lone sword said to all of them with glowing eyes looking at the enemy at the gates of the city.

From the side of the warherd the Bray-Shaman Ezra ClovenBlight looked at the city and from behind him a massive chaos timberwolf came out it was cover in wood,stone and flesh,then the Bray-Shaman got up on the beast and with a roar he and the rest of the lumbergors join the charge on the city.

Inside the city the ruined gate defenders where holding and in the smoke they started to hear the steps of charging beasts. The formation captain took front to the line of shields and halberds,"hold...hold". The captain said to his defenders to prepare for the onslaught,"steady...steady". He said and when they started to see shadows coming from the smoke with a loud shout he said,"NOW". And a line of shields dropped closing the narrow path between the city and outside and along side the shields halberds started to line in front and above them and then the chaos timberwolves made their charge.

The charging chaos timberwolves hit the halberds in full force and with no other way to enter the city they all just got impaled by the defenders but then the charge stopped and from the pile of dead chaos timberwolves started to glow in a sick green color what came after that was an explosion from the bodies that broken the formation,and the ones that survived the blast were slaughtered by the lumbergors as they enter the city.

When the lumbergors mange to enter the city they got shot by fire spells of the equestrian unicorns but even that did not stop them and the warherd of ClovenBlight had enter the city streets and the battle turn to from a defensive battle to a fight or die battle.

On the walls the commanders of the city looked at the chaos in the streets and lone sword started to talk to them,"no time for many words so listen up every commander will lead his forces around the city. Tūval take your group to the slums and help the guards push the monsters that battling them we need all the soldiers to get here to stop them on the main streets,pure dawn go to the civilian living quarters and help the guards their as well i saw many of them go their and the civilians even with weapons and some guards will not stand take 20 of the celestial sunlight knights with you and deal with what happening their,celestia you and the rest of the order of the celestial sunlight members will go to the main street to the city burn and kill any one that try to stop you and help the forces that all so fighting their,and the rest of you hold the wall and inner parts of the gate if they take the walls and the inner gate we will lose". He said to all of them.

"Lord lone sword what about you?". Princess celestia asked him.

"I will lead my umbral blades taking out many of them with our austero magic and me well i will deal with their leader,now go do your jobs and lets end this!". He answered to celestia and said to the rest of them.

When all the commanders where about to go lone sword stopped Tūval and said something to her alone,"Tūval now that the rest of them are gone i have a job for you about the slums,don't save it when you and your group will get their you will see many oil traps everywhere your job is to set all the traps and then let the flames spread then go to the keep to my office and find my lockbox then bring it to me got it". Lone sword said to his griffon second in command.

Tūval did not believed what she just heard her boss the one that saved her when she was young and the protector of the city just order her to burn a part of the city and to go get some trinket from his office but never the less she is forever loyal to him,"yes my lord". She said to him in disappointed and she went to the slums.

Lone sword saw the one named ClovenBlight on his monster all most in the city and to himself he said,"if i will die here then i will take every creature with me".

part two-pure dawn of the celestial sunlight:

The civilian living quarters of silent meadows once it was a happy place where neighbors cheer and party with each other,now only burning buildings,dead bodies and blood in the street hovering above this place. In side the living quarters many civilians and guards were battling for their lives,and in a flash of magic around the living quarters pure dawn and his knight detachment appear with their solar armor and weapons fighting along side the guards against the lumbergors.

"Grand master pure dawn we can hold the monsters for now but we need to find a way to make them rout if we to have any chance to win this". One of the knights said to the grand master.

"I know but we don't know any way only if we kill their master and lord lone sword taking care of that,for now focus on helping the guards i will distract most of them now go for the sun!". Pure dawn said to him in pride and he headed to the main group of lumbergors that where coming to them.

When he got to the large group of lumbergors he manifested his dual solar blades but when the lumbergors where about to charge him a huge roar was heard behind them and from the back a huge lumbergor with an axe and a halberd came to view and then something happened the rest of the lumbergors started to hit their weapons on the ground and to talk,"lumberrot,lumberrot,lumberrot,lumberrot". The lumbergors started to say in their foul words.

The huge lumbergor stood in front of pure dawn and started to talk to him,"puny bhakari you stand before lumberrot lumber beastlord of the ClovenBlight warherd,first of the lumbergors,ravager of a thousand souls,usurper of the dragoness flame,second in command of Bray-Shaman Ezra ClovenBlight and after this battle slayer of Guwu Feb Bhakari". The lumber beastlord named lumberrot said to pure dawn while he said his all of is many titles.

"And here i was thinking that you all were mindless constructs made for our destruction,but since you can talk i might just ask you something lumberrot of the ClovenBlight warherd,what your master get from this slaughter?". Pure dawn asked the huge lumbergor.

"My master will get what every servant of chaos get in doings acts in their name boons and gifts and then ascension". He said to pure dawn with his foul words like venom in the air.

"So you all serve discord the spirit of chaos and disharmony,well no matter i will not let you or your master free him". Pure dawn said to him as he took a battle stance.

But the beasts just looked at him like he said something in a different language and then they started to laugh at him,"we do not know this discord but if your kind defeated him then he was weak and no match against the four or our patron god. And now bhakari stand against me and i will show you death". Lumberrot said to the solar unicorn with anger while his lumbergors surrounded the two in a large circle and pointing their spears into the circle so the two won't get out and the rest of the lumbergors where aiming their bows they looted from the dead at some civilians they took captive for reason unknown.

"Very well then lets dance,FOR THE SUN". Pure dawn charged the lumber beastlord only to vanish and reappear above him but when pure dawn thought this will end the battle lumberrot with a lightning reflexes dodged pure dawn's plunge attack and kick him with is stone hooves. If not for his magic solar armor then this kick alone would have killed him,getting up from the attack and coughing blood he then charged his horn to fire a solar flare that will burn him for sure and when he fire that solar flare the lumbergor lumberrot started to breathe fire from his mouth but it was not a normal fire this fire was full of magic and it did not smell like something was burning it had the smell of rot and decay,when the vile flames hit the solar flare it cause an explosion not on a large scale but what came out of the explosion was pure hell. When parts of the flame from the explosion hit some of the captives only by a small drop the captives started to scream in pain as their skin started to develop all forms of poxes and buboes all over and after a few seconds they fell and die to the rot and decay that fester in their flesh.

Lumberrot roar in delight at the rotting dead,"you see now bhakari this is the will of Shaman ClovenBlight and the gifts of our gods,accept your defeat give in to the gods".

Pure dawn started to back off a little from the area now that he knew what fate will come to him if lumberrot vile flame will hit him its game over,but the beast then charged the solar unicorn hitting him none stop with his axe and halberd till pure dawn could hold no longer and his magic broke then the huge lumbergor step on the unicorn lifting his halberd to the air ready to stab pure dawn he then said to him,"meet your end bhakari".

When the halberd was coming to him suddenly a huge explosion full of fire came from the slums of the city and all the lumbergors even lumberrot himself turn to see what happened,at that point pure dawn took the opportunity and manifested a solar sword and launched it into the head of the lumber beastlord. The lumber beastlord cry in pain when his body started to crack with vile flames his eyes started to glow and his body was lifted to the air and he then exploded after him the rest of the lumbergors started to shatter to nothing pure dawn won and lumberrot the lumber beastlord was no more.

Pure dawn got up and saw the bodies of the monsters and the burning slums then one of the knights came to him with a report,"grand master pure dawn the enemy in the civilian living quarters are all dead we mange to rescue many civilians and guards but all so many died along side of our dead 7 knights fell in combat,what are our next orders?". He asked pure dawn.

Before pure dawn respond to the solar knight a strange voice started to whisper in his head in a malicious tone,"(the hourglass of her fate is running out pony i wonder how her subjects will react to her after she will embrace her true self. Will they join her? Or fear her? Like they did to the second one,and how will you act? Will you still devout your life to her? Or will you see her as a stain on all that is pure and strike her down?. I know the answer but do you?,hahahahaha)".

Pure dawn closed his eyes and said to him self in repeat,"get out of my head,get out of my head".

"Grand master are you ok?". Asked the solar knight in concern for his superior.

Pure dawn turn to him and give him the next orders,"rally with the main force at the inner gate,i will go to the slums to see if Tūval,her group or any other mange to survive the burning of the slums after that...". But before he finish his words a storm of magic in shape of burning winds where seeing from the main street and follow that a loud scream of somepony he knew,"that was the princess,change of plans go and provide aid like i said but i will go first to see what happened now move". Pure dawn order the knight and he teleport to the main street. When he got to the main street he saw only fire,ash and cinder and somepony that looked like celestia,"princess?". Pure dawn asked only to get a stare from a burning demon like eye and a cruel smile.

part three-merc the lone sword head of the austero:

The battle for the inner gate and what left of the walls was like a dam holding the water of a raging wave so did the forces of the city holding a tide of thousands upon thousands of enraging monsters. And from the shadows fast and sharp blades came out of nowhere killing dozen of monsters in one blow they where the austero umbral blades,and in the head upon the wall was their leader lone sword using his shadow magic to destroy hundreds of the lumbergors while holding the walls of the city.

Then among the battling forces of ponies and lumbergors a huge and massive chaos timberwolf came from the sky in a jump and land in the center of the line between equestrian and warherd forces and on the huge beast was the one responsible for all the death and destruction the monster of the everfree Bray-Shaman Ezra ClovenBlight.

The shaman jumped from his chaos timberwolf and send it to the direction of princess celestia's forces at the main street,all eyes where on the Bray-Shaman but no one moved except for one pony the one pony that had the power to battle this thing with equal measure the lord of the free city,head of the austero,master of the umbral blades merc the lone sword.

Lone sword walked to and faced the huge Bray-Shaman and pointing his glaive at him and with a serious face he said to him,"Shaman ClovenBlight i merc the lone sword mercenary lord of the free city and head of the austero clan challenge you to battle one on one till death will take one of us,what is your answer".

Clovenblight roared at lone sword with vigor and rage the tips of his horns started to glow in fire,he then took his cleaver sword of rage and pointed the massive blade at the austero pony and lifting his staff to the air and striking the ground below him he began to speak,"you seek to challenge me,a chosen of the gods of chaos to battle then who am i to say no for the moment when i tear you apart i will offer your body and soul to my gods. So come Bhakari of Ulgu and Shyish and i will show you the powers of the Huibrf Aks Guwu Ghur,Ulgu,Hyls and Khaos Zhoshuiph. Come then Akhamshy'y Aks Ulgu meet your end!".

And when the words said from both side the two charged one other and when their weapons clash a powerful shockwave was unleashed from the blow and all that looked pony or lumbergor flew away from it.

All around the forces of equestrian and silent meadows battle tooth and nail against the lumbergors and in the middle of the war zone in the inner walls clovenblight and lone sword clash blades with each other. Lone sword had speed of the shadows and clovenblight had the strength and rage of the wild and chaos the two on equal scale glaive and cleaver collide none of the forces ever saw such ferocity,every time the glaive of lone sword hit and cuts the shaman his skin regenerate and every hit of clovenblight's cleaver on the austero pony was nothing but shadow illusions. For hours they battle but then lone sword for a second remember something is old love said to him after he maim her face 120 years ago,"(you will pay for this merc lone sword for that betrayal your clan,your ponies will know only suffering and despair till the end of days and you...you will die by the rage of beasts!!!)". And in that second the shaman grubbed him with his third arm and his back leg was now in the claw of the beast,he then started to crush his leg and then he cut it off the body of the pony.

"Ahhhhhhhh". Cry the austero pony as he bleed from his wound, the shaman came close to him dragging his huge cleaver on the ground. The battle around them stopped all eyes on what is gonna happened, lone sword was crawling to his glaive and above him was the Bray-Shaman Ezra ClovenBlight looking at him with disgust,"pitiful worm,you came at me with rage now you whimper like a child". He said to him dragging the wounded austero pony from the second back leg,putting him on the ground and lifting his blade to the air,"now Akhamshy'y Aks Ulgu you will die but know this you were never a challenge to begin with". And as the sword was about to fall on lone sword a huge explosion full of fire came from the slums of the city and all the lumbergors,ponies and Ezra ClovenBlight turn their view to the burning cloud.

Lone sword then used his magic to raise his glaive in the air he then turn the side of the glaive's blade to ClovenBlight's face and launched it to the face of the shaman. The glaive pierce the skull of the Bray-Shaman and he died standing,lone sword was in pain but he looked around to see what of the lumbergors but in shock he saw them still standing.

"Why,their master is dead they all should fall,why they are still standing". Lone sword said in anger while his umbral blades to aid him.

But to what they did not know their was an horrific truth behind the Bray-Shaman Ezra ClovenBlight and from behind they started to hear noise of something moving slowly,lone sword turn his back and to his horror he saw the Bray-Shaman slowly turning to him lifting his arm he grabbed the glaive and he took it out of his skull and then launched it to the ground next to lone sword. The forces of equestria and silent meadows started to show fear they all saw him die but he came back only a few seconds later and lone sword even when he was wounded and bloody he used his magic to grabbed his glaive and he said to the shaman,"i don't know what you are but as long as it take i will keep killing you till you will not rise ever again!,ClovenBlight of the everfree!".

The shaman was about to use his magic on the wounded lord of the free city but then a storm of magic in shape of burning winds where seeing from the main street and follow that a loud scream. Then from the flames a strange pony with wings and horn along side a burning solar armor and spear was in view. Lone sword turn his head and started to talk,"princess celestia by the sun your timing is impeccable we need your...assistance...you are not celestia are you".

part four-Tūval the wings of quill:

The slums of silent meadows where all the low life lived now is about to be overrun by lumbergors,when Tūval and her group got to the entrance of the slums they then saw the bloodbath and maimed bodies all around them.

"Tūval what the hell are we supposed to do their to many of them how are we to save the slums if their is little to save?". One of her soldiers asked her in fear of the beasts that about to destroy the slums and move to the rest of the city.

But Tūval knew the answer and she hate it to her core,"we don't we have new orders,we are to destroy the slums using the oil traps all over the area". When she said this words he group looked with shock but they looked to each other then to her,"it will be done captain quills". They said to her. She then looked at them with a smile and back to the slums all of you fly around and set the oil traps i will go to the slums entrance and inform the guards to not open the path to anypony or monster after that red smoke you will take command of the group when they all done with the traps set them on fire and meet me in the boss office i was giving a task from our lord in the keep so i will go after i will inform the guards,ok then now MOVE!". She said to them and they all went to do their part in the burning of the slums.

While her group enter the slums from above and started to set the traps,the griffon Tūval and the dragon red smoke made it to the blockade of the guards,Tūval then give the new orders to the guards and she give the command to the dragon red smoke,then she went to the office of her lord for the mysterious lockbox.

Outside the keep ponies and lumbergors each other and Tūval cutting the lumbergors one by one till the ground floor of the keep is clear,"captain Tūval its good to see you here". The guard ponies said to her.

"All of you go to the blockade in the slums and provide them with more support you will report to my second in command red smoke now go!". She order the guards and they left to the slums blockade.

Tūval then enter the keep and went to the office of lord lone sword,that time in the slums the group mange to set all the traps in the slums and they went back to the blockade to inform red smoke. Then the dragon red smoke with his wings he went above the slums and started to make fire balls on the marked places where the traps were and in seconds the slums started to burn like dry grass and with the fire the lumbergors and all residents of the slums cry as they burn alive,"ok we did our part lets regroup with Tūval at the keep, the rest of you stay here till for a few hours then join forces with main army". Red smoke said to the guards and to the group and they went to the keep.

Inside the keep at her lord's office Tūval started to search for the lockbox,"damn it damn it where is it where is that stupid lockbox". She said to herself while she was in the search. Then she heard a sound of something falling when she turn around she found the lockbox,"finally now i only need to get this to lone sword and...". But before she said another word she had a small thought in her head,"i wonder what inside this lockbox that is so special". Tūval said to herself. And from nowhere she then found next to the desk of her lord a small key mad of bone cover in obsidian,"that was convenient". Tūval said as she grabbed the key. When she opened the lockbox she saw the most strange thing inside it,she saw what looks like a close eye with a scar on it.

"What in the world,why lord lone sword have such thing in his possessions?". Tūval asked herself while looking at the eye.

Then a huge explosion full of fire came from the slums of the city Tūval dropped the lockbox and she saw from the window as the slums where she spend most of her life burn to ashes. Then from nowhere she started to hear strange voice,"(you are not at fault this is all their fault the austero one for making you do this to your home and the solar one for not choosing to help you when you most needed)". The strange voice said to the griffon.

"Who said that show yourself". Tūval said looking all over the room.

She started to search for the voice only to turn her head slowly to the desk,the lockbox she dropped was on it and the eye was lowly started to open and now watching the lone griffon. "(you seek to punish them for what they done)". The eye said to her mind.

"No that is not true,stop saying that i will never hurt them this is all her fault". Tūval said in panic to the eye.

"(so tell us the name of the one that ruined your life the one that broke your family the one that took your loved one,say her name say it say it!!)". The voice said over and over to Tūval's head till she could hold no longer.

"PRINCESS CELESTIA!!!". Tūval shouted with tears.

And then the eye started to twitch then with a blast the eye was gone and a huge hole in the wall was in the office. Second later the rest of Tūval's group made it to the keep only to see Tūval on the floor,"captain,captain wake up". Red smoke said to her.

She then woke up to see her group but then from outside a storm of magic in shape of burning winds where seeing from the main street and follow that a loud scream then Tūval said to herself out loud,"what have i done".

part five-princess celestia solar sovereign of equestria:

On the main streets of silent meadows it was a bottleneck of a battle on the sides of each part of the street, lumbergors and knights of the order of the celestial sunlight fought one another. The lumbergors had numbers and wild strength and the knights had solar magic and magical weapons but they lack the numbers,for every one knight their were 100 lumbergors.

On the main path of the street princess celestia alongside the the rest of the grand masters and paladins of the order where holding their ground against the rushing lumbergors and chaos timberwolves that tried to break through.

"Stand your ground order of the celestial sunlight and let none of this vile beasts pass through you". Celestia called to the ponies of the order to rally them.

"FOR THE SUN!". They call in unison and started to push the warherd back.

"You heard the princess fight in the name of the sun". One of the grand masters shouted and in a zealous cry he and ten paladins started to charge pushing every lumbergor in their path.

But suddenly the ground started to shake and on the main street six massive chaos timberwolves and on them lumbergor with spears appear and above them on one of the buildings was a chaos timberwolf twice the size of the other massive chaos timberwolves. He looked at celestia with hunger and inside his head was the voice of ClovenBlight,"(kill her,maim her,devour her)". The voice ordered the beast and with a howl the six chaos timberwolves and their lumbergor riders charged the over zealous paladins and their grand master.

The grand master mange to evade the charge but the paladins where not so lucky the charge of the lumbergor riders all most got to the line of the order but then celestia's sun spear with a shining glow she cut of all of them in one slice. But when she turn to the street she watch as the grand master that charged the beasts was now dead and being eating by the chaos timberwolf,with the now dead and half eaten unicorn grand master in his mouth he turn to celestia,his eye turn red and with a roar he charged her and the line of the order.

Celestia did not waste a second and teleported with her spear next to the charging beast stopping him at its place,"all of you hold the line i will deal with this thing my self". She ordered the members of the order.

They did as she ordered them and they continue to hold the main streets against the wild rage of the lumbergors. Celestia and the massive timberwolf fight was savage but very short,the beast tried to bite and claw celestia but she teleported every time and when the beast did not notice her spear pierce his back,now the beast cried in pain trying to get the spear from his back but in that time celestia was charging her horn and she shot a solar ray at him burning him to cinders.

When the beast fell to his death the rest of the lumbergors got into a savage rage trying to get to and kill celestia,but then a huge explosion full of fire came from the slums of the city all eyes turn to the slums and when celestia watched the flames and in her soul she could feel the ones that lived in the slums cry for help as they where burn alive. She started to cry and shout with pain and as if time itself stopped she saw a burning shadow of herself standing in front of her.

"Look at you the ruler of equestria and the sovereign of the sun can't win a battle against walking kindling wood where is the power you wielded against that mad sister of yours so many years ago". The burning shadow said to celestia with disappointed.

"i made an oath never to use your power so begone and never come back!". celestia shouted at the shadow with her royal canterlot voice.

The burning voice not not being fazed by it just smiled at her and began to walk around celestia in a circle,"don't be so overdramatic celestia i am here to only help us,think about it what will happened if you will lose all of equestria will soon fall after or what of our beloved pure dawn". The burning shadow said to celestia with a smirk on her face.

"Don't you dare bring him in to this!". Celestia said in anger.

"And why not think about it what if in your stubbornness pride of not using my power he will fall in battle you will never be able to forgive yourself". The burning shadow said to celestia.

"Pure dawn his strong he won't fall in battle that easy". Celestia responded to the burning shadow of herself.

"Celestia honey listen to me,that thing you fighting against,you and i know he is powerful so much powerful he puts tirek,discord and even our sister to shame and lets be honest the elements of harmony will not hold that thing forever. You...no we must act now if we want to save the kingdom from this beast or all will fall". The burning shadow said to celestia.

Celestia did not like this plan but she knew her more darker side is in fact correct,"fine you win but when this is over you will be gone forever". Celestia said to her burning shadow and the burning shadow with a smile nodded.

"Oh celestia their is just one more thing". The burning shadow said and when her eyes glow with a burning fire chains started to come from all sides shackling celestia to her place.

"What is the meaning of this!". Celestia yelled at her burning shadow.

With a smile on her face the burning shadow turn to celestia,"you where in control for to long celestia now i think its about time for some change in rulership,i will do what you can't and i will bring forth a new age of the solar empire!,and don't worry celestia i will make sure our little pure dawn will be with us so you can watch from here as we enjoy him all to our self,now then celestia bye bye we have a war to win and a world to conquer". The burning shadow said to celestia and she was gone in a flash of magic.

As she battle her chains celestia looked up and shouted to nothing.

Back on the battle in the main street celestia's eyes changed to a sharp demon like eyes and she unleashed a burning storm of fire that burned all lumbergors that charged her,she then unleashed a cry so loud and took flight in a speed not seeing before and she landed in the inner walls in a cloud of smoke.

"Princess celestia by the sun your timing is impeccable we need your...assistance...you are not celestia are you". Said lone sword from the ground floor next to his umbral blades ponies.

From her back a flash of magic came and pure dawn arrive to see what happened to celestia,"princess?". Pure dawn asked only to get a stare from a burning demon like eye and a cruel smile.

"I am afraid that celestia is not available at the moment but do not fear for i am here to end this mess once and for all". The strange pony said to them with an arrogant smile.

"And who are you if you don't mind me asking?". Lone sword asked the burning alicorn with pain from his battle against the Bray-Shaman.

The new alicorn in front of them ignored the wounded austero pony and she went to pure dawn,when she was close to pure dawn she grabbed him with her magic and smile to him then she kissed him for two minutes and she went back to the center of the inner walls,in front of her was the Bray-Shaman looking at her with a form of rage like he have some sort of vendetta against her. She then looked at the Bray-Shaman with her burning arrogant smile and she said.

"All of you may call me...DAYBREAKER!!!".

part six-daybreaker solar nightmare and sun tyrant of equestria:

"All of you may call me...DAYBREAKER!!!". The burning alicorn said with a vicious laughter following her words.

Every creature in the forces equestria and silent meadows looked at their former princess with fear and terror as her new form resembles the old tyrant of the night nightmare moon.

"Come all of my solar knights,come to the aid of your true ruler daybreaker". Daybreaker said to all to hear and then all of the members of the order of the celestial sunlight started to burn in with flames and like them so did their weapons and armor started to burn,their eyes turn sharp dragon like eyes and their teeth became like fangs and all of them in unison said,"hail to daybreaker rightful ruler of the sun!".

And with a smile on her face she raise her hoof and give the order,"destroy this pathetic kindling worms!". And in a fanatic zealous charge the now burning knights of daybreaker charged the warherd of ClovenBlight. In respond to the charge Ezra ClovenBlight in absolute rage pointed at the charging burning ponies and give his order to the warherd,"Yuizz!!!!!". And all the lumbergors in rage charged the burning ponies.

Daybreaker and Ezra ClovenBlight stood in front one another she smiled at him and he with rage at is face they just stood while every pony and lumbergor made battle.

"So we finally meet Shaman i must say when i saw you from celestia's body all of this creatures made it out like you are absolute fear and death with your army of mindless monsters and little wooden soldiers but really all of it is nothing when facing the flames of the sun". Daybreaker said to ClovenBlight taunting him with every word.

But the Bray-Shaman did not moved from his place only looking at the burning pony with rage.

"Hello is their anybeast their or you just mindless like the rest of them". Daybreaker said to him with her vile arrogant smile laughing at the Shaman.

But then with a dark tone something changed in the voice of the Bray-Shaman,"QWE!". ClovenBlight said in rage.

"What was that dear i could not hear you over how pathetic you are". Daybreaker said to him while mocking him.

But then ClovenBlight give her is respond,"Qwe Smkhsh Ghdhsh Zhqu Akhar Tzlshdhw Mars Phakarsh Mujmyardhf Zu". He then began to glow in a black and a horrid aura like a flame with no heat came,his third eye opened and started to focus on daybreaker,his sword began to burn with chaos flames and his staff started to whisper voices of the ones he killed with it,the words all over is body started to glow in burning red and his eyes turn green like something of pure evil,"Ui Phaos Yuizz Qwe Uogu Qwe but before all of that you will tell me where is what is not yours,so face me now Dhaos Aks Guwu Feb!!". ClovenBlight said and roared in rage at daybreaker.

"I don't know what half of this words are but if you so eager to die then come and face the full power of the sun!". Daybreaker said to him in respond.

Both of them then run with a charge at each other and when they clash waves of fire came out of everywhere burning lumbergors and ponies alike.

While the chaos of fire and rage collided with one another from the back the only member of the order of the celestial sunlight that was not in the control of daybreaker was watching the pure form of mindless death and ruin.

"Pure dawn!". A voice called the solar unicorn. And next to him Tūval landed and then with the help of his austero ponies lone sword came as well.

"What happened where is celestia?". Tūval asked them.

"That thing is celestia only in some form of a nightmare version of her". Lone sword said to her.

"My lord i hate to say this but the city is lost,its burning and all most all of the folk are dead we need to get out of here now!". Tūval said to lord lone sword while she was in fear of the two monsters battling each other.

"I all ready have a plan,me and what left of my umbral blades are going to kill both the Shaman and this daybreaker". Lone sword said to her lifting his glaive from the ground.

Upon hearing this words pure dawn return to his senses and turn to the austero pony,"kill her that is celestia you can't do this!".

"Really she said her name was daybreaker and as long as both of them are alive they are a threat to us all and by the looming shadow they will both die,and if you try to stop me pure dawn then i will...i will end you my self. Lone sword said to pure dawn the one that was like a son to him.

"Then we stand against each other lord lone sword...no merc the lone sword of the austero clan". Pure dawn said to him now standing in his path.

Then when pure dawn charged the austero lord the griffon Tūval blocked pure dawn solar swords with her magic quill blade,"go my lord i will deal with pure dawn". She said to lone sword and he with the rest of the austero ponies like shadows disappeared.

"I don't what to do this Tūval just stand aside". Pure dawn said to his childhood friend.

"You know that is not going to happened dawny". She responded to pure dawn holding her quill blade at him.

They both looked at each other and then they clash swords with full force.

part seven-all is lost:

The city was burning and everycreature was battling like mad beasts but the main focus was on two battles only, one between the rulers of sun,shadow and beast and the second battle between friends turn foe.

Lone sword turn to looked at daybreaker and ClovenBlight fighting with fire and rage destroying everything around them the austero lord became angry the city he build to give a home to his ponies and to all that had no home was nothing more then burning cinders not only that from all the 150 members of the umbral blades only 15 were left,he then close his eyes and turn to what left of his clan,"i have failed you brothers and sisters our clan is in ruin along side our pride but i stand before you a wounded shell of my former self asking you something that i have no right to ask, in order to fight this monsters i need to not only wield the shadows i need to become the shadows and to do that i need to make a tribute of ten austero ponies but i will not force you if you want to go i won't blame you". He said to them with pain and blood all over his body.

The rest of the austero clan not even thinking for a second all came forth to their head of the clan and their body started to melt like a shadow and that shadow began to fuse it self with lone sword. Lone sword then started to change form his missing leg became like a shadow,his body was cover in a dark veil,a pair of dark shadowy wings came from his back and a sharp crooked horn came out of his head. And with a shout he yell,"I AM THE SHADOWS,I AM THE DARKNESS AND I AM YOUR DEATH!!". And with that he join the fight of daybreaker and ClovenBlight.

Daybreaker and ClovenBlight where fighting like monsters using magic and blade every time they hit one another they just regenerate with their powers but then out of nowhere the lord of the austero ponies merc the lone sword with his improve form came from the dark of their shadows striking them both with is glaive.

"So the austero pony still live very well i will kill both you and the Shaman if i must". Daybreaker said to him with glee.

"We will see who will die first sun witch". Lone sword said to her in rage.

"By the dark ones just die both of you!". ClovenBlight yell at them.

And the three started to clash weapons.

At the back of the battle Tūval and pure dawn battle each other no one show any signs of stopping, the former friends clash blades till pure dawn stopped,"Tūval this is stupid you know killing the princess is wrong". Pure dawn said to her trying to convince her to stop.

But then Tūval just snapped and started to yell at him,"why...why every time is celestia this and celestia that just why it all ways have to be her why can't you be with me!!!,that thing was meant to kill her not to make her that thing...". But before she finish her words pure dawn started to talk again.

"You...you did this just what were you thinking!!!". Pure dawn yelled at her.

"Because of you!,i love you you idiot but because of celestia we had no chance so i did what i saw fit to do in the moment...now we can just go away and forget about all of this and live together just you and me like old times". Tūval said to him with tears.

"Well you just lost me forever". He said to her turning his back and started to do a teleport spell.

Now her face full of anger and rage she started to yell at him,"IF I CAN'T HAVE YOU THEN NEITHER IS CELESTIA!!!". Then she took to the sky with full force.

Pure dawn saw her flaying to the sky then he saw her taking all of her poison and putting it on her quill feathers and in a shout she yell,"DIE CELESTIA!". And she launched all of her quill feathers at the same time.

Pure dawn knew he had no time to get to the princess but then something happened time just frozen and a mysterious figure but somehow familiar came in view of pure dawn.

"Well long time since i saw you unicorn how is life by the way". The figure said to him like they knew each other.

The figure then saw what was happening and smile,"i see you reached the point of no return but you can change it none the less,do you still have the pin i give you?". The figure asked him.

Then pure dawn with his magic grabbed the strange pin he got from nowhere and showed it to the figure.

"Ah good good,now as you can see no matter what will happened the princess will die from the quill feathers full of poison or if she dodge them she will be cut down by this shadow pony here or by my Bray-Shaman. But if somepony named you will stab yourself with the pin then your soul will be my to do as i wish but i can in return change how this will end. So what do you say my little pony do we have a deal?". The figure asked pure dawn.

And pure dawn in a second took the pin and stab himself in the leg,then the pin fused it self in to pure dawn and on his cutie mark was chains with a skull on them. Then the figure with a smile and laughter he said to pure dawn,"pleasure doing business with you pony,now like i promised". The figure said and then snap his fingers and the position of each ruler changed then he turn back to pure dawn,"now what are you waiting for you have a princess to save and don't worry we will meet again my new puppet,hahahahahahah!". The figure said and laugh as he started to disappear.

Then pure dawn saw as time started to resume the cleaver sword of ClovenBlight and the shadow glaive of lone sword collided with each other they then turn their eyes to one another and started to duel with each other,all of Tūval's poison feather quills hit many targets from enemy lumbergors to ally equestrian ponies and her fellow silent meadows forces but the only target she did not hit was princess celestia or daybreaker as she called herself now. Daybreaker saw the quill feathers and then she looked to the sky to see the griffon that now barely could fly because she used so many of her feathers for the attack,after she spotted the griffon daybreaker then smiled and teleported in the sky in front of Tūval then she unleashed a fire breath so strong that while Tūval was burning in the air alive the flames all so launched her out of the city to the everfree as she cry in pain. Then with a smile daybreaker teleported back to the battle with the other rulers with her burning spear trying to strike both of them down.

Pure dawn saw the fate that happened to his childhood friend even if he was angry at her for what she did in the end she did not deserve such death. And then he remember the original they had before everything fells apart to madness,he knew that the princess need to use the elements of harmony to end this but as long as she in this form it can't be done. So he knew what must be done he need to use the most powerful spell available to the strongest grand masters of the order the"solar eruption" spell a powerful spell of solar magic that with a huge blast cleanse all dark and vile forms of magic in the area. Most likely that it will not kill the Shaman ClovenBlight but it may weakened him and lone sword for some time plus it is only way to have a chance to purify the princess from the hold of daybreaker.

Pure dawn got up and started to channel all is magic to preform two spells a teleport spell and the solar eruption spell to follow it.

Back at the battle the three rulers continue to fight with out stopping only destroying everything in their path. The clash of spear,glaive and cleaver was like a thunder every time they hit each other it was like that for hours but then for a split second Ezra ClovenBlight sense a channeling of strong magic with his third eye. Then in a flash of magic pure dawn appear from nowhere glowing with an aura like that sun and he emitted heat from his body on a massive level,then with his hooves he grabbed the leg of the Bray-Shaman and the Bray-Shaman with rage started to hit pure dawn all over his body with his third arm.

When the spell was all most ready pure dawn was grabbed by the shaman third arm and the pincer clawed arm held pure dawn with such powerful force that with the full rage of the shaman he yelled to pure dawn,"die bhakari!!". And ClovenBlight cut the solar unicorn in half.

But when he did that pure dawn unleashed his solar eruption spell point blank at the Bray-Shaman and the other two rulers where caught in the blast of the spell.

Several minutes later daybreaker woke up from the spell and when she looked at the half body of pure dawn and suddenly in her body she felt pain and tears started to drop from her eyes,then inside her the chains that held celestia where shattered and slowly daybreaker started to fade and celestia was once more in control.

Celestia then started to run in panic to her most faithful student,when she got to him she saw the damage on his body that is now burnt in every place. Then slowly in pain pure dawn opened his eyes looking at his princess,"i.....i knew this will...work". He said to her in pain.

"Don't talk pure dawn save your strength i can save you just don't die on me...please i can't lose you!". Celestia to pure dawn with pain in her voice as tears fell from her eyes.

Pure dawn then with a smile on his face said to her,"don't waste your magic on me celestia...i will soon join all my fellow brothers and sisters in your eternal sun but....but the only thing i ask you my dear sun princess is to end this horrid once and for all,for those that mange to survive this hellish nightmare will see your beacon of hope in the sky". Pure dawn said to celestia as he draw last breath.

"You have my word i will end this for all of equestria". Celestia said to pure dawn with new found resolve in her.

Then pure dawn closed his eyes and with a smile on his face he said,"for the sun and celestia i...love...you". And then the solar unicorn and youngest of the celestial sunlight grand masters passed away.

Celestia wiped the tears from her eyes and turn he view to the shaman as he was starting to rise again. Then celestia channeled her magic to her soul and she began to hover above the ground,her eyes glow in silver color and surrounding her was an aura of magic pure of all things evil and corrupted and from nowhere six jewels of power appear hovering in front of her and she charged one last magic attack against the vile Shaman.

ClovenBlight saw her charging her spell and while he was still wounded he charged his own spell at her. His staff started to glow in warpfire and he was about the finish his charged,but then a very small rock hit the shaman on his head making him lose his focus,he turn his head to see a wounded unicorn from the canterlot unicorn order of magic. Then the shaman kicked the unicorn to the side and started to channel his spell again,but it was to late for the Bray-Shaman for celestia's spell finish to charge and she shot it with full force to the direction of the Bray-Shaman,ClovenBlight in respond fire his spell to early and the spell had a miscast and the shaman burned himself with the warpfire,and then he was hit by the powerful spell of celestia. His body started to disintegrate and with raging roar he exploded leaving nothing where he stood.

When the Bray-Shaman was gone all the fell constructs of lumbergor herds and chaos timberwolves started to shatter and all the beasts in the everfree return to normal and their bloodrage was gone.

Celestia then turn back to normal and she did what she all ways did at that time. And once more the sun started to rise and the long horrid night ended,equestria once more was saved but in what cost?.

chapter 12(300 sorrow's part six)-in the aftermath

Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.

chapter 13:the sun and the bray

ponyville present time-day:

"Akhamshy'y Aks Feb did you come after all this time only to die!". Ezra said to her and unsheathing his sword.

"You will pay for what you did 300 years ago for what you did to the town of silent meadows!". Celestia said pointing her spear at him.

Celestia no longer could hold back her anger and tears and with full force she charged at Ezra ClovenBlight and at the same time he charged at her like a feral beast in a rampage.

The ponies of ponyville ran to the friendship castle to seek shelter from the battle that was going outside the town between princess celestia and the huge strange horrific monster that came to their home,some of the ponies were all so talking about how the sun princess acted they never saw her with armor and weapon before or this strange canterlot royal guard they where not like the normal guards with the gold armor,no this guards where bigger then normal ponies their armor was like they were wearing the sun on their bodies all of them where unicorns and they had with them swords and spears made of magic that was look very similar to celestia's magic. The guards surround the town and cover it with a powerful shield of magic,Twilight,Doe and the rest of the girls along with spike and discord came next to the strange guards,"we need to go and stop them you need to let pass". Twilight said to one of the guards but he ignored.

"Hello,are you listening to me we need to help the princess". Twilight said to them in frustration.

Doe then came in front of Twilight and said to her,"no point in getting frustrated Twilight this pony guards will listen only to the orders of princess celestia".

"Why they are just canterlot guards what so special about them?". Rainbow dash asked doe.

"Because they are not canterlot guards,they are solar knights of the order of the celestial sunlight". Doe said to rainbow with anger in her voice.

"They are actually paladins of the order not knights,when celestia send our arch grand master a letter about a monster unlike what is known in the world coming from the everfree we muster a stronger force since last time such a monster appeared was 350 years ago,but you already know that didn't you "witch of stable port". A pony guard with a war mace made of sun magic said to doe while he was accompanied by two other guards behind him.

"Ah miss doe why this large guard just called you "witch of stable port" if i may ask?". Rarity asked the dark pony.

Doe turn to her and the rest of the group,"its a long story but short version around 200 years ago i was accused of being a witch by the governor of a town called stable port during the middle of the equestrian expanse". Doe said to the group.

"Why they accused you for being a witch,you told me you are an earth pony we can't cast spells like unicorns?". Applejack asked the dark pony next.

"It was a misunderstanding they were afraid of my appearance and the governor was angry at me for sleeping with is wife". Doe said to the group.

The group was blushing after what she said except from discord that just smiled at her doing a thumbs up with his paws and all so spike that did not understand what was happening,"i don't get it why he was angry if you just had a sleepover with is wife". The little dragon said to her. And doe was just looking at the young dragon and said to him,"ask Twilight". And then Twilight said to spike,"when you get older you understand".

"You all so burned the governor's house with a fireball". The guard said to her.

Doe turn to the guard,"you can't prove that was me".

"Well daa, AJ said you are an earth pony and earth ponies can't use magic". Rainbow to doe.

Doe looked at rainbow and she just started to smile with a smug look on her face,rainbow then looked at her with wide eyes and said loudly to her,"you can use magic!".

"Why yes yes i am and i am very good at it to".doe said to rainbow with pride in her words.

Doe then turn to the solar pony,"look mister". She said to him and he said back,"valor dusk,paladin captain of celestia's order of the celestial sunlight". He give her is name. "Ya ya what ever just listen ok,this is twilight sparkle you know princess of friendship,savior of equestria and celestia's student. She is probably the only pony here that can calm the princess before she will do something she will regret,and i am the only one that can calm the one she is fighting so we are your best chance to end this before something really bad will happened". Doe said to valor dusk.

"And how are you the only one that can calm this monster?". Valor dusk asked her with suspension.

"He is my father". Doe said bluntly to the paladin captain.

"Of course he is,fine you two can go but the rest stay here that include the draconequus and that ugly pale manticore at the back". Valor dusk said to her while pointing with his hoof at the rest of the group.

"Hey twilight is our friend we solve problems all the time together this should not be different". Rainbow said to them.

"Plus i don't think you ponies can really stop". Discord said to valor dusk.

"Girls just trust me ok i nothing will happened to me plus doe will be next to me". Twilight said to her friends with a smile while pointing at doe with her hoof.

"We trust you twilight just be careful". Starlight said back to her.

While the girls joined for a hug doe called for black-words the lammasu,"dhar-hakchsdh,if the Feb Arbu Phaos Shyish...Sho or Yuizz". She said to him in chaos tongue.

While black-words give a smile twilight turn to her and said,"no, no Yuizz anypony got it!". And then fluttershy asked her,"ah twilight what Yuizz means?". Only to get her answer from the lammasu as he did a cutting throat gesture with his claw,and fluttershy went behind rainbow dash and said,"never mind".

"By the four can we just go before they kill each other". Doe said to twilight and the order paladins opened a path for them and both twilight and doe ran as fast as they can in hope they where not to late.

half an hour before twilight and doe went to stop celestia and Ezra ClovenBlight:

Both the princess and the shaman clash blades without rest and celestia was feeling so much hate just attacked without thinking,and the shaman ClovenBlight not even using is magic just swing his sword like some young gor that just want to kill. Then their weapons clash and the shaman that point started to talk to her,"you gone soft Akhamshy'y Aks Feb and your blade dull,did you not said you will make me pay for the death of that city". ClovenBlight said to her taunting her with is words.

"Shut up you vile thing how are you even alive i saw you getting vaporized by my spell?!". Celestia asked the shaman in anger.

With a smile he said to her,"i am blessed by the gods they have granted me many gifts over my long devoted life to them and they granted me all so a way to cheat death,i told you so long ago i am eternal!". Then his third arm came out and he grabbed her by the tail and toss her aside with force.

She used a spell to protect her from the blow and the shaman resumed his talking,"how is it feels knowing that pathetic pony sacrifice himself for nothing,knowing you failed to end me". He said to her making her angry with every word that came out from his mouth.

Celestia with rage said to him,"i told you to...SHUT UP!!!". And as she said that she showed sharp teeth and sharp burning eyes started to form on her face.

"Yes bring her out that Dhaos Aks Guwu Feb she is the one i wish to kill so pony bring out that sun deamon,bring out the one called DAYBREAKER!".the shaman roared at celestia.

Then with rage both celestia and ClovenBlight yelled and charged each other but before they clash a sudden,"STOP". Was heard from no where and in a flash of magic both twilight and doe where between the two. Twilight was in front of celestia and when celestia saw her former student she return to her senses and stop her charge,but from the other side the massive blade of the shaman was about to hit both celestia and twilight a hard and sharp whip like tail came and stopped the blade from hitting them and in front of the bray shaman was his adopted daughter doe-Khar. He started to grunt and roar at her like a wild animal and just like him she did the same like both of them were savage beasts.

"Celestia are you ok did he hurt you?". Twilight asked her former mentor.

Celestia was shaking with fear not from the shaman but from her former student she then hugged her and said,"twilight what are you doing here you have no idea what this vile thing can do or what he done!". Celestia said loudly at twilight.

"No you listen princess,i spent an entire day with him,i listened to him telling me about is race i know he is most likely the most biggest bad thing on our world,but you know what he all so trusted me enough to tell me about himself and you know after hearing all of that i can understand why he is like that and maybe you can forgive him for what he done,we forgive discord so". Twilight said and asked from celestia.

But in anger and rage celestia said to twilight,"I WILL NEVER FORGIVE THIS MONSTER FOR WHAT HE DID!!". Celestia yell not even thinking about it.

Listening to the words that twilight just said to celestia behind them the shaman Ezra ClovenBlight hearing her words and then he said something to her,"i am what i am Akhamshy'y Aks Feb i will never change it and will never go against it,you don't have to forgive me in fact i don't want you to forgive me but your student wise to learn about my kin and i give her word as a shaman of the dark ones to answer what i can,and if you feel that is to dangerous then you can join us,so what is your answer". The shaman said to celestia.

Celestia looked over to the shaman and with anger she said to him,"fine by me beast but know this one sudden move and i will burn you with the power of the sun". Then she left and headed to the town.

Twilight was starting to feel bad but then doe-Khar went to her,"don't worry i will talk to her she and i have more in common then she know". Doe-Khar said to twilight and she went to the angry sun princess.

After a few seconds twilight began moving only to hear a voice saying to her,"you showed understanding to that you don't know young bhakari leth so i will give you an advise "do not trust me" the only reason i did not kill you was because the gods have a plan for you". ClovenBlight said to twilight while he was standing next to her.

"Don't worry i don't trust you for me you are just a new source of information". Twilight said to him confident in her words.

The shaman then smiled and said to her,"well keep acting like that and you will fit the title of bhakari leth".

"I can understand your chaos tongue but very little what is "bhakari leth" means?". She asked him.

And he respond to her with an answer,"it means pony lord or lord over ponies". And he started to walk to the town and twilight fallowed him.

In the front celestia was walking and she was angry,"how dare he lecture me that stupid,horrid,vile son of a". Celestia was about to say only to get interrupted.

"Easy now princess you don't want the town folk to see you this angry do you". A voice said to her.

Celestia turn her head and she saw a tall pony full of scars,her coat was black,she had one eye and four goat horns,her cutie mark was a goat skull with eight horns and in the center was a flame shape of an eye and her tail was like a sharp whip but then she all so saw a four sets of teeth like razor sharp fangs and all so large and long like they were made for tearing skin and flesh in her mouth and claws coming from in her hooves plus a forked tongue and around it was tiny blade like teeth.

"My little pony what happened to you?". Celestia said to her with concern.

Doe-Khar looked at celestia and said to her bluntly,"please don't princess,i know you can sense it the aura i have just like my father,don't pretend to be nice with me".

"Very well but i have to ask,is he really your father?". Celestia asked her.

"Of course not,he adopt me 500 years ago from a bandit camp in the forest". Doe-Khar said to her.

"So why you came to talk to me you won't convince me to forgive your father if that is what you hope for". Celestia said to the dark pony.

"What no fuck that i came to tell you about why he can't die". Doe-Khar said to the sun princess.

Celestia stopped in her place turning her head to the dark pony,"ok i will bite why he can't die".

"Well have you heard of the putrid grove?". Doe asked celestia.

Celestia said nothing and doe just kept talking,"i will take it as a no,ok so the putrid grove is a place inside the everfree and just like its name its a very dark place like you can die just by being close to it. But if somepony can purify it my father will have no way to come back to life after he will die".

"Why are you telling me this?". Celestia asked doe-Khar.

"Look,i did a lot of bad shit in the pass 480 years since i left the everfree and i know i can't fix them but in the last 5 years i am really trying to do something about it. Plus no magic in our world can purify but you can use it as an advantage if my father will start doing something bad". Doe said to celestia with a smile.

Celestia then give her a smile,"i think we will get along just fine miss doe". And the two started walking to town.

Back in ponyville everypony just started to return to their normal way of life and then far from the town everypony saw celestia,twilight and the strange dark pony with the goat horns but the monster was nowhere to be seeing.

When they enter the magic dome around the town,celestia give the order paladins new orders to surround the castle and not letting anypony in after that they enter the castle where the rest of the group and the lammasu where just sitting. When they saw them the girls jumped to hug twilight and celestia but a storm of magic appear in front of them and in it was the shaman.

"Where did you come from?". Spike asked the shaman.

"Teleport magic". He said to the young dragon then he turn to twilight and celestia,"so lets get this Q&A over with i don't like being outside the forest.

Everyone in the room found a place to sit and twilight was sitting in front of the shaman but before she started she turn her head to see celestia looking at the shaman with eyes like daggers,"ok that's it princess why you hate mister ClovenBlight so much?". Twilight asked her former mentor.

Then ClovenBlight turn to celestia,"so Akhamshy'y Aks Feb you never told her about what happened here 350 years between you and me did you". The shaman said to her only to get a growl sound from celestia.

"Well tell us where you had a thing back then?". Rarity asked them.

The shaman then started to laugh,"hahahahah,no me and Akhamshy'y Aks Feb never mated with each other. He said to rarity while celestia just got more angry.

"So what happened it can't be that bad maybe you can laugh about it now". Pinkie pie trying to cheer the room.

"Very well the reason she is mad at me is because something that happened 350 years ago". The shaman said only to get a,"not another word beast". From celestia but she just give her a smile.

"In short their was a huge battle here then i came with my own army many where killed and then your sun ruler turn to a deamon after that i killed her lover and then she killed me and 350 years later here we are". The shaman said to them.

All the group was in shock and started to move back slowly from the area and the only ones that where in their place where celestia,twilight and ClovenBlight.

"If you gonna tell this then let me do it,ok now listen my little ponies and spike and discord let me tell you about a dark event in the history of our land the event known as the 300 sorrow's". Celestia said to the group and started to tell them all that happened every part and the most painful part to tell was about her former student pure dawn. After what was 5 hours she finish the story and all of them where just sad and crying even discord the only ones that did not cry were ClovenBlight,dark-words and doe-Khar but doe unlike them she felt bad for reasons only she knows.

"I am sorry twilight but i can't stay here while that thing is here i will go back to canterlot we still need to ready everything for the gala in a month". Celestia said to her former student.

"Ya we can't be here either we will see you later twilight when its only you here". The girls said to her all so leaving the castle.

Discord then got up and said to twilight"i will all so leave and be careful twilight". And he snap his fingers and he was gone.

After that black-words got up not saying anything he just left back to the forest. Spike then turn to twilight and said to her,"don't worry twilight i will stay". But she knew he was in pain from the story trying to hold his tears. Then doe grabbed him from the tail and said to her,"i will take the little one you to just finish your Q&A,come now little dragon why not show me the castle". And when they left twilight started to hear spike crying.

"Do you still what to do it little bhakari leth?". ClovenBlight asked her.

She turn to him and started to ask her questions,"when we stopped you told me you where something called a Gave so what other breeds of your kind are there?".

"Well that depends in reality their can be thousand of breeds but we will focus on the more common ones. You know about the Bray-Shamans,Gaves and Turnskins so now i will tell you about the Gors,Brays,Beastwomen,Minotaurs and our cousins the Centigors but if we will have time i will all so tell you about the Eastern Beastmen. So lets start with the gors". He said to her while she grabbed her parchment and quill.

chapter 14:Breeds,Hierarchy and the decision

friendship castle-ponyville:

Twilight grabbed her parchment and quill with her magic,"so you where about to tell me about your species breeds and you said something about gors,so what is a gor?". Twilight asked the Bray-Shaman.

The Bray-Shaman then started to eat some hydra meat he saved from the time he killed one only a few days ago and when he put the meat down next to him he looked at her and said,"well that is hard to say young bhakari leth,lets start with this The Gors are the most common breed of the cloven ones race or "beastmen" in men tongue. Large, powerful, and numerous, they form the spine of all the tribes living within the entirety of the wider world today till the end times. Whilst their appearance varies a great deal, they all nonetheless combine some animalistic features with those of Mankind. Yet, it's the horns that all Gors possess which separates them from other lesser breeds of Beastmen. Easily distinguished from their smaller kin, the ungor. Gors are marked by prominent horns that jut from atop their shaggy heads. For a Gor, the possession of a large set of horns grants it an immediate and tangible mark that denotes rank and status among the herd. In fact, the possession of set of curling or straight horns is the very definition of what denotes a particular Beastmen as a Gor. Their are three types of gors that are common in a tribe the Bovigors,Caprigors and Ungors". The shaman said while he took another bite of the hydra meat.

Seeing him eat meat made twilight slightly nervous but she remain composed and she resumed in her questions.

"Can you tell me about the three?". She asked him.

"But of course that is why i am here,so lets start with the Caprigors they are the most common breed of gors,recognisable by their goat- or sheep-like heads and legs, along with, more importantly, their curling or straight goat horns. After that we have the Bovigors they are bull- or ox-headed beasts with cattle horns. Bovigors are also bullheaded in their nature, being very competitive and prizing brute power over any form of subtlety. What differentiates these beastman from minotaurs is their much smaller stature. And then we have the Ungors,which means “not-quite right Gors”, “other Gors” or "no Horns" in beast tongue. They are not as strong, tough, intelligent or robust of frame as the gors,but they more than make up for it in sheer malevolence. Ungors are equal in size to men,and typically feature the hooves of a goat yet possess a human shaped face. They are physically smaller than other beastmen and their horns are less impressive and less numerous.

Within the violent hierarchy of our kind,the Ungors are a pathetic and lowly breed that stands among the lowest classes of Beastmen society,only surpassed by the unlucky Turnskins and Brays. They serve as workers,foot soldiers,and resentful victims to the brutish whims and bullying of their larger brethren. Due to this,they can never truly occupy the higher echelons of their tribe,and are forever forced to live a life of poverty and suffering,a miserable state that is low for even the most foul Beastmen". The shaman finish his words and he started to walk around the room grabbing random books and started to read them.

"So that was all just one part of your kind that was dividend in three,when you told me about the ungors you said something about Brays what are they?". Twilight asked him again and the shaman turn to her.

"Ah the Brays well,Brays are the lowest of the beastmen breed,their inability to possess any form of horns forces these degenerates to live a life of constant bullying and misery,no matter how strong these beastmen may be,for such is the importance of horn in cloven one society. Even the ungors look down on these pathetic creatures,mocking them and bullying them at every opportunity. Brays don't live long,being the last to gain food and always the furthest from the warmth of their encampments. Brays take their name from the braying,whinnying,whooping cacophony they make when they band together to eat or kill. Though these wretches are amongst the weakest and most worthless,it’s not unheard of for a Bray to use his cunning and bravery to assume control over a herd. Such occasions are brief,as the Bray must constantly fight off challengers to his rule". The shaman said to her then he stopped for a second then asked her something,"tell me bhakari leth is this town acceptable for living?".

Twilight was thrown off from the question of the shaman,"what do you mean by acceptable?". She then asked him.

"Housing,food,work". He answer to her.

"Well yes ponyville in the past was just a small town but over the years it got more popular so it got bigger,why do you ask". She said to him.

"No reason,well we still need to talk about my kind how about Minotaurs". He said to twilight.

"Ok...so are the minotaurs of your world are similar or different to the minotaurs that live here?". She asked him.

"Compere to the minotaurs of the old world your minotaurs are weak and pathetic. The Minotaurs,also known as Bullgors,are a massive bull-headed breed of the beastmen race that are known famously for their savage temper,brute strength and an insatiable hunger for hot blood and raw flesh. Often growing to twice the height of a man and far greater in muscular bulk,their thick-skulled heads are broad and ugly,and their sharp horns can eviscerate with a single thrust. Many have the cloven-hoofed hindquarters of a beast and other deformities of the body that the touch of chaos brings. Though they are less intelligent than even typical Beastmen,they are unnaturally strong and powerful,and make formidable warriors. Minotaurs are possessed of a terrible hunger for flesh,particularly the flesh of humans. Yet it is not the gnawing hunger a mortal feels when deprived of sustenance,but a deep thirst for the unholy exhilaration the Minotaurs experience when they consume the flesh of their enemies. In this state,they join with the power of the chaos gods and share in a part of their glory". He said to her and while she was writing down his words he then said something strange to her.

"You know that Chamon fur bhakari with the Shyish mane remind me of the females of our kind". When he said that twilight stopped writing and looked at him with a face that said no way. "Hold on fluttershy the most kind and innocent pony you can known is like the females of our kind,the same kind that kill everything in their path for food,sport or just chaos. I don't believe it". She said to him dismissing the thought in seconds.

"Believe it or not but its true,Beastwoman are an extremely rare breed of female beastmen. Little is known about them, as they are often fewer in numbers than the male Beastmen which dominate our society. What little i can tell you is that is known is that they have been characterized as being oddly gentle and shy,in comparison to the rowdy and bloodthirsty gors and ungors which surround them. In all my life span i saw a beastwoman or "Doe" as we call them in our Society only once on my pilgrimage to the home birth of chaos". He said to her while grabbing a keg of griffon ale he brought with him from the everfree.

"Do you have to drink that now it stinks and i will rather you be sober when we talk". She said to him while asking him to stop drinking.

The shaman stopped drinking and respond to her,"you call that drinking you should see the way the cousins of my kin drink in fact let me tell you about them. The Centigors are a drunken,jealous race who,through some exposure to the warping powers of chaos,have become a cross between a four-legged creatures,such as horses and oxen,granting them great speed and strength,but the upper body of a humanoid with which they wield brutal weapons. Though they are not considered beastmen in the strictest sense,being more beast than,they nevertheless are often seen alongside their smaller brethren,especially during times of war. Strong,vital and crude,these beast-centaurs are powerful creatures. However,they are not especially agile,and while they have great strength they lack the dexterity to manipulate objects with any skill or control. Centigors are bitter and spiteful,resenting their clumsy,awkward nature,and harbour a deep jealousy of creatures whose minds and bodies are better matched. This resentment engenders unpredictable behaviour,rage,and merciless hatred,especially towards Humans. Although they are not very dexterous,they are able to wield brutal,basic weapons which match their vicious and bloodthirsty nature. Nomadic Centigor warbands can be found roaming the plains and steppes of the chaos wastes,occasionally venturing into the northern forests of the empire". He told her while he was laughing none stop.

Twilight could not help it and she started to giggle and laugh joining the shaman as he described the Centigors.

"You now what i am having some fun so i will tell you about one more breed the Eastern Beastmen,distinct breed of beastmen which dwell within the lands of the Far East an unlike the gors or minotaurs they a tiger or lion base body not bull or goat some of them are even monkeys in form monkeys! Can you imagine what pathetic things they are". ClovenBlight said while he was laughing.

"You know i begin meaning to ask,after what you told me about your kind they are appear to be savage brutes but you see more reason and you can speak equus like its your normal language,so i was wandering why are you so different?". She asked the shaman.

"Well bhakari leth let me ask you this,what do you think of chaos magic?". He asked her.

"Well its hard to control and its a strange form of magic". She answer him.

He then smile to her and said,"well you are all most correct,you see the truth is that all forms of magic is chaos magic but it depend on the Huibrf Aks Zhoshuiph and if you over using them. The more you use at the same time the more you get influenced by the sea of souls. And the reason i am more then my other kind is because the gods gift me with many boons of chaos one of them his the gift of tongues and with it i can understand any language and speak it". The shaman explain to twilight while she listen to him in fascination of such gifts even if they where chaos based.

"So bhakari leth do you have any more things to ask?". He asked her.

She was thinking for a moment and then said,"yes i have something,how your kind chose a leader?". She asked him.

"So you want to know the hierarchy of the cloven ones well, we live by the base laws of nature, twisted beyond recognition by the corrupting influence that is Chaos. Though we may walk upright and speak, my kind are as close to animals as they are to men. Violence simmers beneath the surface of every exchange, each Beastman seeking every opportunity to enforce his superiority to all others. Domination is enforced with bloody violence, and every Beastman quickly learns his place under the heel of the warherd's chieftain. Should any one of their numbers show weakness, the victim will suffer for it, and his position within the warherd will be diminished. In more understandable terms, we follow a violent hierarchy based upon the overall prowess of a Beastmen as well as what kind of breed the particular Beastmen is. Those that possess exceptional strength and bear the greatest blessings of the Dark Gods, such as magnificent curling horns, occupy the higher tiers of their tribes. Those Beastmen that possess small horns or none at all, such as the lowly breeds of Ungors and Brays, are always below those that do such as the Gors and Minotaurs. Hence, each warherd is led by the strongest and most bestial amongst their numbers, whom are known collectively as Beastlords. Our primitive chieftain's as all others say we are, occupy the apex of tribal authority. It is his absolute right to rule as he pleases provided that he has the strength to back it up. To maintain his position, he has to continually fight off challenges from his many jealous and power-hungry subordinates. He makes a totem from the pelts of those he has defeated to prove his right to rule, making his personal banner a gory record of his deeds and conquests. One day, though, a challenger will come who is stronger, younger and far more vigorous than the current incumbent, and then the chieftain's own hide will hang bleeding in the wind from the challenger's totem. From here, this vicious cycle is repeated again and again until time immemorial". ClovenBlight said to her while he was looking at the window of the castle.

"Is their more?". She asked him once more.

ClovenBlight was thinking for a bit then he said to her,"well Status within a Beast tribe is typically regulated by the strongest individuals within the group. Those wishing to obtain a higher position simply has to challenge an opponent of higher status in a brutal and often fatal duel. The only exception is the Ungors and Brays, those Beastmen or other mutants who are not graced with the horns that are the most distinctive feature of this race. No Gor, or horned Beastman, would consent to being ruled by an Ungor or Bray, no matter how skilled or powerful the lesser Beastman might be. In any case, such a situation never occurs in practice; Ungors and Brays are simply weaker and less physically imposing than Gors. The occasional spirited Ungor who might step out of line is quickly torn to shreds by the Gors of the tribe. Mutants who do not have at least one animalistic feature, even if it is so minor as enlarged, fang-like teeth, are rarely accepted into Beastmen bands even as Ungors, but sometimes form their own tribes, sometimes led by outcast Gors or other powerful Chaos creatures. Above the ordinary Gors are the Bestigors, large and powerful beastmen that occupy the highest position within their tribe just below the Beastlord himself. Some powerful Gors have too much ambition to be willing to serve as a Bestigor, and force their way up the hierarchy still further. At this point, these Gor leaders are known by many names such as Beastlords, Foe-Renders, Gouge-Horns, Wargors, Banebeasts, and Banegors. From here, the hierarchy becomes more complex; these different names are not merely local affectations, but precise statements of rank. These various Gor leaders will work together, each with their own smaller warband, banding together under one supreme leader of each horde. Fortunately, such co-operation is relatively rare, and the typical traveller would be most unlucky to be attacked by a Beastman herd that is lead not by one, but multiple leaders". He told her as he began to stretch every part of his body.

After twilight finish with the writing and organizing what she wrote,she then turn to the shaman,"well that's it,thank you so much for the help is their anything i can do to show my appreciation". Twilight said to the shaman.

"Well their is something you can do". ClovenBlight told her and began to say to her is request.

A few hours later doe-Khar return to the room where twilight and ClovenBlight were staying,"ok i put the young dragon to sleep he was crying a lot so...why is the friendship princess smiling at me?". Doe asked them.

"Well daughter of mine i decided that you are ready for the last trial,but it will take time to prepare it. So after helping the young bhakari leth i asked her if you could stay here till the trial will be ready". The shaman said to his daughter.

"And i don't have a say in this am i". Doe-Khar said to her father bluntly.

"No you don't,so be nice and i will summon you when all is ready". ClovenBlight said to doe-Khar and then with is magic he transformed to a crow and he spreed his wings and fly through the window.

Twilight and doe-Khar were looking at each other and twilight said to her,"this is going to be great we will have so much fun".

And doe in return only said,"this is going to be a long day". And the two went outside the castle to show her the rest of ponyville.

chapter 15:bittersweet,stones and stripes

ponyville:

Walking together around town Twilight was showing doe-Khar all of ponyville(even if doe did not want to),they stopped around the center of town,"so what do you want to do first?". Twilight asked her new roommate.

With a dead look in her eyes doe said to her,"do you really want me to answer that". With a blunt and flat tone.

Twilight was smiling and made a chuckle with a sound of concern and then among the awkwardness between the young alicorn and the turnskin pony,Twilight spotted a familiar face not far from them in the market of ponyville.

"Come with me i want to introduce you to somepony". Twilight said to doe and she started to gallop to the direction of the market. Doe rolled her eyes and went after her very slowly.

In the market zecora the sole zebra that was living outside of town in the everfree was doing her normal shopping around town when she heard a familiar voice calling her,"zecora!". The voice said getting closer. She turn back and saw her close friend princess twilight sparkle galloping to her,"good day to you twilight sparkle how you have been,i don't mean to be rude but you look very unease". Zecora said to her in her rhyming speaking pattern.

"What no i am fine just want to see how are you and i will like you to meet somepony". Twilight said to her with a cheer on her face.

"Zecora i would like you to meet a new temporary guest of my castle and of ponyville till further notice the turnskin pony doe-Khar,doe-Khar this is zecora a zebra shaman that live in the everfree forest". Twilight said as she was introducing them to each other.

Zecora looked behind the young princess and she saw a very tall pony with one eye,four horns,black gray color fur and mane with scars all over,a sharp whip like tail and hooves that have sharp claws coming from them. But surprisingly zecora was not disturbed by her appearance.

Zecora approached the turnskin pony and handed her hoof for a hoof shake,"welcome to ponyville miss khar,i hope you will enjoy your stay and have much fun". Zecora said to doe as she welcome her to town.

Doe was looking at the zebra and she return a hoof for the hoof shake,"thank you for your words and may the spirits watch your path". Doe said to zecora with a surprisingly respectful tone in her words.

Twilight that in the days that she got to know doe was surprised from how she acted in front of zecora,"wow doe,that is the first time i seeing you not so disrespectful". Twilight said to doe with a smile in hope that maybe she is opening to friendship.

"Well don't get used to it the only reason i am like this is because she is a Guaman". Doe said to twilight with her blunt words.

"Excuse me but i do not know this language you used, what is a Guaman if i may ask?". Zecora asked the turnskin pony.

Doe turn to face zecora,"well Guaman means shaman in my father's native tongue". Doe explain to the zebra.

"Forgive me for asking but what species is your father,for you are pony but this language is not?". Zecora asked her again.

"Well did you saw that huge monster that was battling celestia". Doe said to her.

"Yes i did saw it,it was rather a strange beast". Zecora respond to her words.

"Well that thing is my father and he is living in the forest for like 500 years now,and before you ask he is my adoptive father but after some time near him his magic started to change my appearance. And in my father's race have a strict rules about shamans". Doe explain to both zecora and twilight.

The three then started to talk and escorting zecora out of town when she finished her shopping. When they reached the town entrance zecora then turn to them,"well it was fun meeting you miss doe-Khar i hope we will get to see each other again and talk more,and it was good to see you too like all ways twilight but i have some errands with fluttershy,so till next time". Zecora said to the two and she went to the direction of fluttershy's cottage.

After saying goodbye to zecora the two entered back to town and once again twilight had no idea where to go next and she started to panic a little. Doe turn her head to see twilight panicking.

"Twilight why are you panicking?". Doe asked her.

"What me i am not panicking haha...". Twilight said back to her in discomfort.

Doe did a hoof palm to her face(which meant much more considering that she have claws in them) and said to twilight,"look twilight i know you think its like your duty or obligation to show me around so i will have fun and a good time when i am here but not only that you are trying too much and overthinking this,you really don't have to i am a 513 years old mutant earth pony that can do magic i did a lot in my life and believe it or not i am very easy going. Just think of something and i will go with you". She said to twilight to reassure her.

Twilight started to calm down and smile,"thanks i get to overthink about thing a lot...i know! We can go to Sugarcube Corner to eat and i think Pinkie pie is still working too so you can get to know her better". Twilight said to doe.

"Well after you princess". Doe said to her and both of them went to Sugarcube Corner the bakery of ponyville.

They walk in town heading to Sugarcube Corner and doe started to ask twilight about Pinkie pie,"so what is this Pinkie pie like?".

"Well Pinkie pie is the official ponyville party planner,she all so work in Sugarcube Corner and live their and the owners Mr. And Mrs. Cake are her employers and landlords, as they rent the loft above the shop to her plus she foalsitting for their twin foals and she is an ambassador to Yakyakistan and a teacher in the School of Friendship. Trust me you will love her". Twilight said to doe and while she described Pinkie they reach the outside of the bakery

Outside Sugarcube Corner they where standing and twilight was looking at doe with concern,"doe are you ok?". She asked her.

Doe was just standing looking with a weird expression on her face at the bakery,"513 years and i never saw something like this,like how they build it don't the roof get spoiled and what happened when its raining".doe just kept asking with out stop.

"Ah doe,you know that is not real chocolate and frosting of the roof right". Twilight said to the turnskin pony. Then doe turn her head to twilight with a shock on her face,"then why its smell like it". She asked her. Twilight could not help it and she started to giggle and laugh then she grabbed her hoof and they enter the bakery.

"Pinkie are you in here". Twilight said to the room only to see Pinkie pie in the counter of the bakery all grey with a deflated mane and tears in her eyes.

"Pinkie what happened to you?". Twilight ran to her and asking her with concern.

"No...noth...nothing just sad from the story celestia told us that's all". She said and started to cry again.

"Wow if she is the fun one then how the rest of your friends are". Doe said from behind.

Twilight turn her head and with an unamused face she said to her,"not helping". And she return to Pinkie pie,"well lets talk all about it in the back ok". Twilight said to her and Pinkie nodded her head and they went to the back of the store leaving doe alone. "Ok i will just stay here i guess". She said to no one and with her tail she stabbed a muffin and started to eat it at the table.

"You know you should pay for that". A voice said from nowhere.

Doe then turn around to see a pony with a grey coat and purple mane with a rock next to her looking at with a blank neutral facial expression.

Doe then swallow the muffin and said to her,"i will pay later,and anyway how are you you look a little blank for a place like this".

"My sister works here". She said to doe(again with a blank neutral facial expression).

"Really the only one i saw working here is that sad deflated pony named Pinkie pie". Doe said to the pony.

"Well that is my sister and my name is Maud Pie by the way". The pony maud told doe.

"Hold on did you said pie why is this name sound familiar,when i heard your sister name i just thought it was a coincidence but now that i think about it...do you know an Igneous Rock Pie by any chance?". Doe asked maud with curiosity.

"Yes his Pinkie's and my father". Maud told her and then doe opened her eyes wide and she then asked her, "and may i ask your mother's name?". Maud then told her,"her name is Cloudy Quartz why do you ask?". She asked doe.

"Well its a long story".

After about four hours twilight and Pinkie came out from the back of the store,"are you sure you feel better now Pinkie". Twilight asked her.

"Ya i'l be fine nothing that a good cake can't fix and maybe a cannon". She said with joy and she started to hop in her place. "Look twilight maud is here". Pinkie said to twilight and they both went to say hello to her. On the table maud was looking at her pet rock then her sister came to great her along with twilight.

"Hi Pinkie,twilight,this is for you". Maud said to them and she give pinkie a strange bronze bit,then twilight with wide eyes turn to maud,"maud where did you found this?". She asked her. Maud then reply to her,"that pony with the horns give it to me so i will give it to pa and ma and to tell them sorry...all so to pay for a muffin".

"Why twilight you know what it is?". Pinkie asked her.

"That is an old bronze equestrian bit,its worth 50000 bits". Twilight told them.

"WHAT,where is she i need to thank her". Pinkie said to the room.

"Well she left about four hours ago she said something about thinking things". Maud told them.

"I will go find her,Pinkie just stay here with maud". Twilight said to the pie sisters and she left the bakery in a run.

"Well i can't do nothing...i know i will bake her cake this will be the best cake ever". Pinkie said with a smile and joy. But her sister stopped her,"Pinkie there is something you need to know about this pony and our parents,apparently she is one of the reasons they got married". Maud told her sister and they began a long talk with each other about their parents and how doe connected to them.

chapter 16:tricks,rainbows and challenges

ponyville:

Doe was walking by herself and thinking about her life and all the things that happened in it and it made her sad,her life was a living hell she accepted that but she still wanted to find an end to it.

After walking for some time she started to get tired and to her luck she found a nice tree to sleep under,so she went to the tree and started to fall asleep.

Then in the middle of her sleep she started to her voice a of child.

"What should i do,what should i do". The voice kept saying.

"Its to late to get the others,if only rainbow dash was here". The voice said to herself.

Doe now was awake and she open her eye to see a filly with an orange coat and purple mane and tail,a cutie mark with a lightning bolt inside a shield and one busted wing going back and forth and talking to herself.

"I promise apple bloom i will get her notes from the tree house but how am i supposed to do that with a monster blocking the path". The young filly said out loud.

Doe looked above her to see a tree house and since they were the only ones here she assumed she was the monster,doe was not offended by that she was looking like beast from a horror story but still she had feelings. So when she saw the filly sitting with her back to her she had a very mean,she slowly got up and started to walk over to the filly.

Scootaloo was sitting and trying to find a way to get to the tree house when she then saw a shadow above her and the sound of growling,she slowly started to look up to see a mouth with razor sharp teeth. Scootaloo wanted to move but then she saw a tail like whip grabbing her hooves,she wanted to call for help but no words came out she was about to start crying but then the growling stopped and instead the monster started to laugh.

"Hahahahah,by the gods you should see your face". The monster started to say to her.

"That was not funny!". Scootaloo yelled at her.

"Well i never said it is funny for you".doe said to her while she kept laughing.

"Just wait when rainbow dash will get here she will". Scootaloo started to say but the so called monster stopped her.

"Relax kid not here to cause problems,but really if you want to go to your tree house you know you could just wake me and ask i don't bite...some times". The monster said to her in a calm voice. "Anyway name's doe-Khar but call me doe for short,and your name?". Doe said and asked the filly.

"Scootaloo but my friends call me scoots for short,sorry i called you a monster". Scootaloo said to doe.

"Don't feel bad your not half wrong so you wanted to get something from your tree house,hold on here a sec". Doe said to scootaloo and then she jumped from the ground to the tree house and after a few seconds she came back down with a notebook in her tail. "Here consider this an apology for earlier". Doe said to scootaloo handing her the notebook and she started to leave.

Scootaloo was in shock of how see jumped and she called for her,"how did you do that!,that was so awesome!". Hearing scootaloo made her stop because that was the first time somepony said she was awesome,"glad you liked that kid,if you want i can show you some tricks i learn over the years,only if you want of course". Doe said to her with a smile.

Scootaloo then smiled at her and she started to fallow her to see all the tricks.

A few minutes later when they on the look for a good place scootaloo and doe started to talk to each others.

"So miss doe what are you if you don't mind me asking?". Scootaloo asked her. And doe with a smile answered her,"i don't mind well you i am an earth pony but over the years i had some changes in my body which i prefer not to talk about how i got them".

"And what about you scoots what do you do in life?". Doe asked her. "Well me and my friends are tutors in the School of Friendship and we are all so the Cutie Mark Crusaders". She said with a cheer.

"Crusader ha last time i saw one was 200 years ago,but it was a different crusader." doe said to her.

Scootaloo then stopped and said to her very loud,"200 years! How old are you!".

"Well i will be 513 this year why do you ask". Doe said to her.

"How only alicorns can live that long". Sootaloo said to her.

"Well that is not true i am a living testament of that". Doe said and then she stopped,"ok this place is fine so what do you want me to show you first?". Doe asked sootaloo.

Scootaloo then said to her,"well i was hoping you would show me maybe some way to fly but now that i know you are an earth pony i really don't have anything in mind sorry".

"Well i think i can show you something its not going to help you but i think you will enjoy it". Doe said to her but then she started to hear a strong wind coming to her way and with a quick reflexes reaction she grabbed scootaloo with her tail and she jumped to the side. Then a trail of wind with rainbow passed the area where doe and scootaloo where standing and when it stopped they saw rainbow dash flaying next to them with an angry face.

"Let go of scootaloo now!". Rainbow dash demand her to do.

Hearing this doe let go of young scootaloo and went to rainbow with an all so angry face but her was more scary from all the teeth and with no words she just grabbed rainbow with her tail and thrown her on a large rock,before rainbow hit the rock she mange to stop herself with her wings,"ha is that all". Rainbow said to her only to see she was gone and then from above her she saw a shadow when she looked up she saw doe but before she mange to dodge her doe landed on her with her claws and with her tail she grabbed her again and she pinned her to the rock. Coming close to rainbow teeth all showing she then stopped,"you done?". Doe asked her with rage.

"Buck off you freak". Rainbow said to her only to get toss again to the rock. "I will ask again are...you...DONE". Doe said with a low tone that sounded all most wild. But then scootaloo came to the two mares,"stop it both of you". She said crying her eyes. Looking at her with her eye doe then let go of rainbow and when rainbow hit the floor she started to breath again.

Scootaloo then went to see if rainbow is ok and then she turn to doe,"why did you do that to her!". She asked her.

"Doe with a stern look on her face only said,"your welcome". "What do you mean your welcome,you all most killed her". Scootaloo said to the turnskin pony.

"Look kid i don't know what they teach you in school but do you know what will have happened if she would have hit me or you with that speed don't answer that because i will tell you for free,in such speed if she would have hit me some of my bones would have been broken by the impact,now i can heal fast because of the changes in my body but let just say this what do you think would have happened if she missed me and hit you...your body will be broken and you will be dead in seconds". Doe said to scootaloo. Then she turn to rainbow dash,"and you first of what the warp do you think going is such speed just to hit,you know i was hearing the sound of the wind if i wanted i could just jumped with out the kid and then think of what would happened,second you heard from twilight how strong i am and you know that i can use magic why in the world did you think you a Pegasi in her what teens can beat a pony with a 500 years experience with magic,weapons and survival,and third and last if you have a problem with say it to my face and not by attacking me like some thug. So what i am trying to say is...PISS OFF!". She yelled at rainbow and started to leave.

"That is not fair!". Rainbow yell to doe and that made her stop and turn her head to her,"i am sorry fair?". Doe asked her.

"Ya fair,you just coming to town you hurt my friends and then you act like nothing happened,then that story with your dad and the princess and he just get away with it and now you coming to scoots no not happening. I don't trust you and i don't like you and i think you should leave and never come back!". Rainbow yelled at doe with all of her pain and tears.

Doe just looked at her with her one eye,"oh cry me a river". She said to her harsh and cold. "You want unfair my entire life is one sad twisted unfair,i won't give all of it to spare the kid the nightmares,but let me tell you something that nopony know about me when i was 14 i met somepony that lived in the town that once stood here we played all the time then one day we where supposed to meet at our usual spot and when i got there i saw five stallions forcing themselves and i lost it i came to the open and like an animal i charged them. But then from the side i was hit by a club and when i woke up i saw the five stallions and my so called friend laughing,then she explained to me that this was all a plan to mess with me and they started to beat me while i was on the ground,then one of them started to force himself on me but before something happened i was saved by dark-words. With his power he made the wild life under his command and i watched as they killed them all except for one. My so called friend begged me to save her but i lost that day all faith in ponies and in "friendship",so i got up and walked away only hearing her cry when she got eaten alive. That was the rest of my life 513 years of knowing that i will all ways be hated for what i am so don't talk to me about fair". Doe said her story with anger and when she was done she turn to the large rock behind rainbow and she headbutt it and the rock shattered to pieces.

Now doe was just standing and bleeding from her head and rainbow was on the ground now feeling bad after the story she heard none of them was saying a word so scootaloo decided to do the first move.

"Hay i got an idea how about a friendly competition so we can forgive each other and go back to normal". Then rainbow turn to scootaloo,"scoots it doesn't work like that we can't just compete with each other and everything will be just fine". Rainbow told her but then they both hear doe's respond,"fine i'am in but only if it be a flying competition". Both rainbow and scootaloo where looking at her,"what do you mean a flying competition you don't have wings". Rainbow said to her.

In respond doe smiled at her then she looked like she was in pain and from nowhere a set of bat like wings that had fathers started to grow from her body,"well i do have now". She said to them with a slow breath.

They just looked at her with shock,"HOW DID YOU DO THAT!". Both of them said to her now they were checking her new wings like they were never in the middle of a fight.

"I got them around 275 years ago and i prefer not to go to detail on it,so you want to test yourself against me or not?". Doe said to her with a smile.

"Rainbow then spread her wings and with a smile she said to her,"your on".

"Ok now i think i know the best thing both of us can do,we gonna play landfall". Doe said to her only to get a confused look from both of them. "Don't tell me no one plays landfall anymore damn i am really old. Well rules are easy you take flight as high as you can and when you feel you can't go up any more you fall as hard as you can using your legs to make a crater,biggest crater wins so your in". Doe said to her with a smile and in a smirk rainbow said,"i'm in".

"Ok so you want me to go first or you want to?". Doe asked rainbow.

"Ya sure i will go first but what about scoots like you said she could hurt from something like that". Rainbow said to doe.

"Don't worry i will protect her". Doe responded to rainbow. "You sure when i am in the sky no one can best me". Rainbow said to her with a smug look. "You underestimate my power". Doe said to her with a smirk.

Then rainbow was about to jump to the air when scootaloo began to count,"5,4,3,2,1 go". And rainbow jump to the air with speed,she was high in the sky even doe was impressed by her she never saw a Pegasi that can fly so high,then rainbow started to make her descend. And with a strong impact with her hooves she landed in force on the ground making it shake,the crater was big bigger then rainbow's body and rock debris started to drop from the impact and when they all most hit scootaloo doe opened her wings and cover both of them from the small rocks.

Scootaloo then open her eyes and looked at doe with a smile,"thanks". She said to her and doe rub her head,"don't sweat it kid".

Rainbow had a hard time standing up but then doe came to her to help her she grabbed her with her tail and put her on her back and dropped her slowly next to scootaloo.

"Rainbow are you ok?". Scootaloo asked her role model with concern.

"Ya i'm fine just some hoof pain". Rainbow said to her trying to hide her pain.

Doe that saw this took something out of her bag and give it to rainbow,"here eat this trust me". She told her.

Rainbow saw some black and grey powder that was warm,she then swallow it and her pain started to go away,"that taste horrible but i'm fine now,what was it?". Rainbow asked her.

"Grounded phoenix droppings". Doe answered her. Then rainbow started to spit and clean her tongue while scootaloo was laughing and rolling on the ground. "What gives i thought we forgive each other". Rainbow said to her now with a bad mood.

"Sorry i don't have healing magic so i use some trick i learned over the years,the taste is bad of course it is droppings from a bird but if you dry it and ground it you can make a healing powder,i learned it from the zebras". Doe explain to her.

"Fine what ever,ok now its your turn".rainbow told her.

"Ok but first the two of you must stay behind this boulder when i ,make my drop ok". She told them and they both nodded their heads.

"Ok start the count". Doe said to scootaloo and she began to count down,"5,4,3,2,1 go".

Doe then opened her wings and she jumped to the sky at full speed and when she reached the sky she was half the height of rainbow and she started to make her descend. When they saw she was going down the did as she told them and went behind the boulder then they heard the massive impact. Rock debris started to fly in high speed that some parts of the boulder where shattered to pieces,when it stopped they turn to see and with wide eyes they saw a huge crater the size of a house and standing still with in it was doe.

"Miss doe are you ok?". Scootaloo asked her. And then doe turn her head and with a smile she said,"i won".

She saw rainbow started to get a little upset so she had something in mind for that,"but when it come to speed and flight you are far better then me rainbow". After hearing this rainbow started to cheer up,"of course i'm the faster Pegasi in all of equestria but you are not so bad yourself". Rainbow told the turnskin pony.

Scootaloo then cheered and said to both of them,"great now lets end this with a hug". Only to see both of them looking at her and hearing doe,"don't push it".

"Anyway i'm going to keep exploring town it was nice to meet you scootaloo and rainbow hope this at least help you to change your opinion about me a little". Doe said to them.

"Don't sweat it i will get used to it". Rainbow told her.

"Miss doe i know where you can go next you can go to Sweet Apple Acres and you can meet apple bloom and the rest of the apple family". Scootaloo suggested to her.

"That sound nice and i could give your friend that notebook of hers along the way if you like". Doe said to her.

"I forgot about it thanks". Scootaloo told her and she handed her the notebook and they waved their hooves at her as she started to leave and she went to the ponyville's apple farm Sweet Apple Acres.

chapter 17:apples,memories and more apples

Ponyville-Sweet Apple Acres:

Doe-Khar was walking on the path that lead to Sweet Apple Acres and she then spotted on the middle of the road a broken cart with baking supplies all around it when she came closer she saw a unicorn with pink coat and purple mane along side a cupcake with a cherry cutie mark trying to fix the cart and put the baking supplies in it at the same time,she then got closer to the cart and was standing behind the mare,"can i lend a hoof?". Doe asked her.

The mare then turn her head and when she saw doe she jumped back a little. Doe of course was used to such reactions from ponies,"do you need a hoof in fixing the cart?". Doe asked her again.

"Yes i will very much appreciate miss...". The mare said to her and doe responded to her,"doe-Khar but its doe for short and you are?". She asked the mare,"oh yes my name is Sugar Belle nice to meet you miss doe". Sugar belle said to her nervously.

Doe simply lifted the cart with her tail and then sugar belle fixed the tires of the cart and put back the baking supplies on it with the help of doe.

"Thank you for the help is their anything i can help you with?". Sugar belle asked her.

"Yes actually i need to get to Sweet Apple Acres do you know the way by any chance". Doe said to her and with a smile sugar belle told her,"well you are in luck i am all so going their to visit my husband and his family an all so give them this baking supplies for their apple pies,i now you could come with me it will save time for both of us and i really need help with this cart".

Doe had thought about it for a second and then answered her,"sure why not". And doe took the cart from sugar belle and started pulling the cart while sugar belle walked next to her.

They didn't talk much sugar belle was nervous around her she never saw a pony like her before but to her luck they did not need to walk much more for they arrived to Sweet Apple Acres,the place was full of farms and apple trees of all kind but doe did not see any workers the only one to greet them was a young filly with a pale green coat and red mane with a cutie mark of an apple with a heart inside a shield.

"Sugar belle!" the young filly call to sugar belle and hugged her.

"Its good to see you too apple bloom" sugar belle said to the filly named apple bloom, "is anypony in the farm or its just you?" sugar belle asked her.

"Its just me and Big Mac,applejack and Granny Smith went to do some business with filthy rich" apple bloom said to sugar belle.

Apple bloom then turn her head and she saw next to sugar belle a pony with dark grey coat and mane bigger then her brother with scars,horns,claws,sharp tail,sharp teeth and one eye. But she wasn't scared of her she was more...fascinated by her strange appearance.

"You apple bloom?" the mare asked her.

"Yes why do ask?" apple bloom asked in return.

"Your friend scootaloo asked me to give you this" and doe pulled out from her bag a notebook with her tail and handed it to apple bloom. Apple bloom then smiled to her and grabbed the notebook after she put it aside she then went to doe and hugged her,"thank you so much for bringing me this miss..." apple bloom said to her.

"Doe,doe-Khar and its no problem...so your applejack's sister" doe said to her.

"Yep how do you know my sis?" she asked doe.

"Well i will explain on the way to your house this cart is not that comfortable" doe said to apple bloom.

They all smiled and began to walk to the farm in the front sugar belle and apple bloom talked and giggle as they walked and in the back doe was pulling the cart,she was with her thoughts with no care in the world and a few minutes later they got to the front of the apple home the three of them unpacked the baking supplies from the cart and went inside the house. Sugar belle and apple bloom took the supplies to the kitchen and they told doe to make her self at home(which was a problem for her because her home was a forest),so she just sat in the living room doing nothing. After some time she heard a new voice from the kitchen,it sounded like a stallion. "Hi big mac" sugar belle said to the stallion.

"Did you finish apple bucking while i was away?" sugar belle asked him. And the only respond doe heard from him was a "eeyup".

"Oh big mac we have company in the living room,a pony that was kind enough to help sugar belle and me with the cart and unpacking". Apple bloom said to her brother.

"Then i'l go thank her for the help" the stallion named big mac said to them and went to the living room.

When he got to the living room he started to say,"on behalf of my wife and the apple family i would like to tha..." but Big McIntosh did not finish is words when he saw doe sitting in the living room he started to get nervous for some reason.

"Nnope nnope nnope nnope" he started to say to himself with a nervous look on his face. Doe on the other hoof was looking at him all so strangely,"well it was nothing really i was looking for applejack and since me and sugar belle which i am guessing is your wife where on the same direction i thought to help her out...say you look familiar did we met somewhere?" doe said and then asked big mac. "NO,ahh i mean no we never met since now haha" Big McIntosh said in a such awkward manner.

"Ok...anyway i just gonna sit here till your sister comes back" doe said to him and she went back to do nothing. Big mac then return to the kitchen all sweaty and he then spotted sugar belle and apple bloom looking at him. "Big mac are you ok?" sugar belle asked him.

"Apple bloom can you give me and sugar belle a moment" McIntosh said to his little sister. She then nodded and went to her room.

"Ok what's the problem mac you look like you saw a ghost" sugar belle said to him.

"That mare did she tell you why she is here?" Big McIntosh asked her.

"Well she said she want to talk to applejack,why do you ask" sugar belle asked him.

"Its nothing i just...don't trust her" McIntosh said to is wife while he was looking if doe was listening to them.

Sugar belle looked at him with shock and said to him,"now listen here big mac she helped me with the cart and the unpacking even when she didn't had to".

"Look sugar belle i know this mare and trust me she is bad news" big mac said to his wife only to see her raising an eyebrow and looking at him,"and how my i ask you know this mare" sugar belle asked him with a flat tone.

Big mac started to panic and sweat a lot,"well honey you see,it was a long time ago and we..." he started to tell her is story.

In the living room was just siting doing nothing when she suddenly heard sugar belle yell from the kitchen,"YOU DID WHAT!".

From the kitchen sugar belle stormed out angry carrying big mac with her magic she was now in front of doe and she toss mac next to the turnskin pony. And then with an angry face she turn to doe,"well when did you gonna say it".

Doe just looking at her not knowing what the hell she wants from her,"ahhh,i have no idea what are talking about".

"Just stop it ok i already know" sugar belle said to her in anger.

"Stop what i have no idea what you are talking about what the hell is wrong with your wife" doe said to sugar belle and then to big mac.

In the middle of the yelling applejack ran inside the house to see what was all noise is about,"what in tarnation is going on here!".

"I have no idea she just started to yell at me for no reason!" doe said to applejack.

"No reason,no reason!,YOU SLEPT WITH MY HUSBAND!" sugar belle yelled at doe.

"What are you talking about i did not..." doe was about to say only to stop and start thinking then her eye wide and she looked at big mac,"i knew i saw you before you were that young stallion from Appleloosa".

Big mac started get more nervous but applejack stopped him,"ok lets just calm down when did both of you meet and ahh...you know" applejack said to them uncomfortable.

"Slept together" doe said casually to applejack.

Applejack,Big McIntosh and sugar belle made uncomfortable sounds and doe was just smiling at them,"i don't see what is the problem here it was way before you to got married and it meant nothing to any of us" doe said to them trying to ease the tension in the house,"plus well i know understand why they call you big mac" doe said to Big McIntosh with a grin on her face while sugar belle just got more angry at both of them.

"Look i just wanted to say thank to applejack for the help when i first got to town i understand if you want me to go" doe said to them and started to get up ready to leave when they suddenly heard another voice at the door.

"So you just gonna leave like you all ways do" the voice said to doe.

They all turn to see Granny Smith standing and looking at doe it was quiet in the living room then doe just started to move slowly to Granny Smith,applejack stood in her way knowing about how powerful doe really is but granny smith did a no gesture with her head and applejack moved from her path. Doe and granny smith where looking at each other and something unexpected happened they hugged.

"You got old smith" doe said to her with a smile.

Smiling back at her granny smith said to her in respond,"you look the same the day i met you. Tall,strange and ugly" and both of them started to laugh while applejack,Big McIntosh and sugar belle just looked at them not knowing what is happening.

"Ah,granny you know each other?" applejack asked her grandmother.

"Know her we lived together for six years when i was young mare" granny said to applejack while she was standing next to her old friend.

"Why did you lived together...oh don't tell me" applejack said in panic only to be scold by granny,"no what kind of pony do you think i was she needed a job so she worked for us and lived here and she worked hard harder then most ponies that wanted to work here".

"But that was a long time ago so all of you start talking to each other so you can forgive one another we have work to do" Granny Smith told Big McIntosh and sugar belle,"applejack call your sister for help" she told applejack and she went upstairs to call apple bloom,"and you come with me outside we need to talk" she said to doe and they both went outside.

Outside of the house they set down they both looked at the farm and granny began talking,"so,you slept with my grandson" she said to her old friend.

"It was years ago an if i knew he was your grandson i would have never done it" doe said to her.

"I believe you...so are you gonna explain to me why you left when things started to get good in your life?" granny asked doe.

After a short silence doe answered her,"i told you a long time ago its complicated and i will not talk about this again".

"I understand,so you at least find what you looked for all this years?" granny asked her again.

"Yes and soon when i get it i will have some peace and quiet in my horrid life" doe said to her. Then granny put a hoof on her shoulder and told her,"your life was maybe with pain doe but remember you had some good in it".

They both smiled and hugged again then when they got up doe turn to granny smith,"well i'm gonna go now can you tell them sorry about all the mess and take this" doe then give her an old coin,"doe you know me and my family we don't take charity" granny told her and doe just got angry,"its not charity its a gift you old hag" doe said to her.

"You are older then me you crone" granny smith said to her all so with anger.

As they were looking at each other with anger they started to laugh,"haha,just like old times,well i best get going goodbye smith it was nice to see you" doe said to granny and she started to walk away.

"Remember doe if you want my door is open for you" granny said back to her and she return to the house.

Doe walked from Sweet Apple Acres with a smile on her face and she return to her exploration of ponyville.

chapter 18:discordant tea party

ponyville outskirts:

On her way from sweet apple acres doe began walking near the everfree looking at her former home and she started to get sick she then turn away from the forest only to see a bunny looking at her with anger,"can i help you?" doe asked the bunny.

The bunny started to talk in his animalistic way,he started to angrily point under her hooves. When she looked down she saw a carrot,then he started to push her hoof(not that i mange to move it). Doe then with her tail pulled out the carrot out of the ground only to see the bunny looking at her with a "give it to me" look on his face. But do with a smile on her face just started to eat the carrot next to the bunny,the bunny started to his her hoof and yell at her(with is small voice) only to be stopped by doe.

"You do realize i understand you right" doe said to the bunny.

The bunny then looked at her with shock and he started to hop away but doe's tail was faster and she grabbed him and got him close to her face,"you know i hadn't ate a roasted bunny in a while" she said to him showing her sets of teeth causing him to shake.

The bunny started to beg for his live but doe just kept smile at him,"you done because i need to start the fire,you are not gonna cook yourself you know" she said to him and he started to yell in is small critter way.

20 minutes later:

"Angel bunny where are you its time to eat" a voice said from a far.

And outside next to the everfree was fluttershy looking for her pet bunny,"i hope he didn't got lost somewhere" fluttershy said to herself.

Then she started to see not far from her area a cloud of smoke,she was curious about it and went to investigate the smoke cloud.

When fluttershy got to the area of the smoke she saw a camp fire and angel bunny tied next to it,in seconds she went to free him from the rope he was tied to.

"Oh angel what happened who did this to you?" fluttershy asked her pet bunny.

Angel bunny then started to speak fast and explain to her everything.

"Angel you are not making any sense what pony monster?" she asked him.

"I think he is talking about me" a voice said from behind her.

Fluttershy then made a "yep" sound and jump a few meters back when she looked at the direction of the voice she saw the pony doe standing with a bag full of herbs and mushrooms.

"Oh sorry miss doe i get scared easily" fluttershy said to doe while holding angel.

"Don't worry about it" doe told her. After she put the bag down she went back to fluttershy,"so...can i have him back?" doe asked fluttershy.

Fluttershy was confused for a moment then after looking around her she understood what she wants to do to angel,"no!, you can't eat him his my friend".

For a second doe looked at her and just said "ok" and she moved to the camp fire and she put the fire out and grabbed her bags and turn to fluttershy,"but you will let me cook this mushrooms at your house" she said to her and then she turn to angel bunny,"next time you call me a monster i will just swallow you alive" after she said it to angel with a smile full of teeth both angel and fluttershy started to panic and they started to go back to fluttershy's cottage to prepare the food.

ponyville outskirts-fluttershy's cottage:

They arrived at the cottage and when fluttershy opened the door to her house and the three entered doe saw dozen of animals inside from big to small all of them coming to embrace fluttershy but when they spotted doe behind her they started to get into defensive position,"no stop it all of you miss doe is our guest" fluttershy said to her animals and they all stopped their aggressiveness and they left the room.

"I never saw them act like that before,i hope they did not startled you" fluttershy said to doe.

Doe then dropped her bag and said to fluttershy,"don't worry about it they just protecting their master".

"Ok well i will take all the food you brought to the kitchen and i will make something to eat after i will feed my animals,come angel you need to eat too" she said to her bunny and they both went to the kitchen but before they went angel turn to doe and give her a "i'm watching you" look and he fallowed fluttershy.

Doe went to the living room and set down waiting for fluttershy to finish the feeding and the cooking. After some time doe felt like she is been watched,at first she thought it was one of fluttershy's critters but after a closer look she started to felt magic inside the room. She had no intention to cause trouble to fluttershy so she decided to talk,"i know your here no point to hide just come out and we can talk" doe said to the room.

After a second a flash of magic appear in the room and the spirit of chaos discord was above her looking at her with a hint of anger.

"I don't know why you are here but if you think i will let you hurt miss fluttershy then i won't hold my...power...what are you doing?" discord said and then asked doe.

Doe was with her her face down to the floor not looking at discord,"i am sorry about what i did to you when i got to town that was not how i wanted to handle what happened and i hope you find it in your self to forgive me" doe said to discord in hope he will accepted her apology.

Discord was thinking for some time and then said to her,"ok ok fine i forgive you just stop bowing like that it looks like i did something bad".

Doe got up and then set down again now she and discord in the same room looking at each other not knowing what to do.

"So what are you doing here...what was it "turnskin" pony?" discord asked doe.

"Well the yellow one promised me she will make me something to eat if i will not eat the rude bunny i think his name was angel something" doe said to discord.

Discord was looking at her and then started to laugh,"hahah,now that sound amusing but i must tell you now if you cause any sorrow to miss shy i will make you pay" discord said to doe but when he was done talking he turn his head to see the tip of her sharp tail next to his head.

"Don't worry i am not here to cause trouble,but i will not respond in good manner to binge threaten".

She and discord looked at each other and they smiled,doe retreated her tail and discord snap his fingers and he was then sitting on a flying chair.

"So miss doe until miss shy return lets get to know each other shall we" discord said to doe with a smile.

"Ok what do you want to know chaos spawn" doe said back to discord.

hour and a half later:

From the kitchen fluttershy return and with her tea and some treats,"i hope you didn't got bored while i was in the..." but to fluttershy she saw only discord sitting and reading a book,"oh hello discord what brings you here and where is miss doe" she asked him.

"Well i came to see you dear fluttershy and miss doe well she left some time ago" discord answered to her.

"Did she told you why she had to go?" she asked him again.

"Well she said something about fixing her bag,so i told her about Rarity so she left and wanted to say sorry about the i'm gonna eat your pet thing" discord said to fluttershy.

"Oh well i hope i will get to see her again i did promise her food" fluttershy said to discord and his smile fade and turn to her,"miss shy i know it is in your nature to see good in all things but about this pony i advise you this...don't,i talked to her for some time and she told me some of her past and i saw many things in my life from good to bad but her she is beyond redemption".

After hearing this fluttershy got mad at discord,"how can you say that!,every pony deserve a second chance you got one so why not her" she told discord.

Discord said nothing for some time then he looked at fluttershy with a serious look and said to her,"fluttershy do you recall the story that princess celestia told us". Fluttershy nodded with her head with sad eyes.

"Their is another side to this story one which celestia don't know about and if i will tell you this part you must never say it to anypony no matter what" discord said to fluttershy.

Fluttershy then stood strong and told discord,"i promise".

"Very well then,let me tell you why this war with the griffon warlord and princess celestia really started" and discord began to tell fluttershy some parts of a sad chapter in the history of equestria one that even celestia did not know.

chapter 19:the beauty,the whelp and the departure

Ponyville-Carousel Boutique:

Doe had come to the place called Carousel Boutique and when she entered the shop the bell rang and from afar she heard a voice,"be right there make yourself comfortable". And like the voice said doe went to make herself comfortable.

She looked at the room it was full of dresses and fabric of all colors and doe began to think"why anypony will pay for a dress".

She heard some noise from above and she spotted a young pony looking at her she was grey with pink mane and was hiding from her and observing her,doe was very tired so she just ignored her.

Then she heard a voice from the next room,"welcome to Carousel Boutique where all your fashionable needs are met" Rarity said to the room and when she opened her eyes she saw doe not even looking at her she was looking above her.

Rarity was slightly offended by that,"you know its not in good manner to ignore somepony when they are talking to you" rarity said to her but she was met with a response from doe,"so is staring with not even saying hello like i am a monster".

Rarity had no idea what do meant by that and then doe pointed with her tail at where the young pony was,when rarity all so looked she saw her sister,"Sweetie Belle come down this instant and apologize miss doe is a customer" rarity told Sweetie Belle and her sister started to come down slowly.

"I'm sorry" Sweetie Belle said to doe.

"I forgive you" doe said back to her.

"Good now sweetie belle go play outside while i deal with this" rarity told her and sweetie belle left the Boutique leaving rarity with doe alone.

"So darling what can i do for you,do you need a dress,hat or maybe" but then doe dropped a bag with many holes and had the smell like the swamps,"i'm sorry miss doe but what is this?" rarity asked her while she was trying not to vomit.

"Its my bag,i was told you have good needle work and you can repair it i will pay for any materials needed" doe told rarity.

"Well sure i can repair it but it looks old and horrid plus its smell like the inside of a hydra" then she heard doe whistling which made rarity curious,"ah miss doe what exactly this bag is made of".

Doe was looking left and right then she pull out another bag but inside it was some old junk and rags then doe smiled at rarity showing her strange fabric she never saw before.

"This fabric is rough in the outside but smooth on the inside i never seeing such fabric before what is it".

Doe then with a smile and pride told her,"that is hydra hide and its 47 years old".

"You know buying or selling anything of hunting is illegal".

"True but i think even you had the idea to make clothing designs from such Materials,and you are not hurting anypony or any beast. You know what lets make a deal fix my hydra bag and if you like the fabric then you can keep it plus the bits i will pay you,do we have a deal".

Then with a smile rarity had a better idea in mind,"how about this i will fix this bag of yours and instead of paying me i want to design a dress for you with the Materials you have and the Materials i have to make it my design with your savage look,you win i win and i can show it in the upcoming gala,so what do you say miss doe".

Do was thinking about it for some time and in the end she said to rarity,"fine you win but not something to "feminine" ok".

"Of course of course you are the customer,so miss doe lets get started".

Rarity began to take do's measurements but even when rarity was a master of her craft doe was more of a challenge then she first thought her hooves had sharp claws in them,her tail was more reptilian then pony and her body is a little bigger then princess celestia. Rarity knows if this dress is to be perfect for doe she need to know every part of her strange body.

"Miss doe can i ask you something?" rarity asked her while she was thinking about the combination of what Materials to use.

"Sure ask away" doe said to her. "Well in order to make this dress perfect i need to know what more "surprises" your body can do" rarity told her and doe then turn her head to her with a confused look,"surprises?" doe asked her.

"Yes well you are not a normal pony in your shape,i need to know more about your body if i want to make this dress".

Doe was thinking for a second,"well i have wings if that is what you meant,i all so have the horns and teeth and my other form" doe told rarity and rarity was writing all of them,"wings,horns,teeth...i'm sorry did you just say wings?".

"Ya i don't go with them because it brings too much unwanted attention,you want me to bring them out?" doe asked her and rarity was curious to see them.

Rarity nodded with her head and doe told her to get back a little,then doe started to look like she is in pain and from the sides of her body two huge bat like wings came out. Rarity jumped a little backwards but after the little shock she then saw doe's cutie mark and she began to come close to it, it was like rarity was under a spell she could not remove her eyes from the strange mark then she began to hear a voice from an unknown location.

"(come to us...come to us...join us...we see in to your depravity)". The sound became more alluring and when rarity was close she began to see some form of shape calling her but her mind return to focus when she heard doe's voice.

"Come on come on get up,rarity can you hear me" doe said again and again but rarity was in silence,she was awake but not breathing. "Damn i hope you can understand what i am gonna do now" doe said to her and she took air to her mouth and started to do mouth to mouth respiration to rarity.

The door to Carousel Boutique opened the from the door the young dragon spike entered,"hi rarity i came to see if you want to go dig some gems and maybe...RARITY!" spike saw rarity on the floor and doe above her opening her mouth and about to tear off rarity's face.

Spike then ran as fast as he can,he tackle doe to no effect then doe toss him aside with her tail and with her long fork tongue she used it to enter her mouth.

"Get off her!" spike yell at her but after a few seconds rarity started to take a deep breath and she started to cough. Spike then came close to rarity and in anger he lash out at doe,"what is wrong with you!,you could hurt rarity or worse!,twilight give you the benefit of the doubt but from the moment i saw what you really am i knew we can't trust you so just leave us alone and get out of here!" when spike finish to yell he began to see doe's face but it was not of anger it was of sadness.

"SPIKE,miss doe just saved my life" rarity told the young dragon,"please doe don't take this to harsh he did not know" rarity begged doe but doe began to walk out of the Boutique not saying a word.

ponyville:

Twilight searched every where for doe but she had no luck finding her then in her view she spotted her walking with a rapid pace from Carousel Boutique. Twilight ran to her,"doe where were you i was looking all over for you" but doe ignored her and kept walking. Twilight began to get frustrated by her attitude,"that's it i've had enough of how you act every time i try to help you you just angry,we only want to help can't you see that" then doe stopped and with a swift act of her tail she grabbed twilight and began to strangle her,"help me...HELP ME,i did not ask your help. Every time i was wandering your kind just see what is before them a monster nothing more,i had enough of this of all of you. Don't follow me if you do then i will tear your heart and eat it" doe said to twilight and she toss her to the ground and she began to use her wings to fly away from ponyville.

Twilight started to get up from the ground and she said to her self,"i need to get to celestia maybe she would know what to do" and twilight started to go to her castle to send a letter to her former mentor.

But to twilight's unawareness a bird with half of its face gone was spying on her and then it went to a place far from ponyville were three figures gathered.

chapter 20:war comes to the world of equus

unknown location:

In a dark land where the gloaming shadow of an unknown power is cast all over it,they lie and wait for they have all the time in the world or so they have thought. The dead crow that came from ponyville arrived at the borders of a place that is consider a myth to the rest of equus the so called "mortis plains" in this dark and gloomy lands many of the world live there but to say living is an understatement for they are mere cattle for the the true rulers of the land, the undead legions and their vampire masters. And in the heart of this land on a cliffside,after the fields of graves and dead hollow trees it stand strong,dark and tall bering the mark of a bloody bat the "Krutsenhof Castle" home to the last members of its family the vampires of the von kruts bloodline.

Inside the dark halls of the castle it was silence as the graves,then the sound of hooves walking slowly in the halls was heard and in them a lone bat pony walked to the inner chamber of the castle. As he enter the room their was a large and long table and on it three bipedal figures where sitting two males and one female their skin was pale dead,they where wearing clothing of noble look and they were eating meat alongside goblets that were filled with a red liquid. The bat pony came closer but then he stopped at the center of the room bowing to the mysterious figures.

"What news do you bring us lua timore" the figure at the head of the table said with deep voice to the bat pony. Every word that came out of the mouth of the figure was like something dark holding the heart and slowly killing it.

"The crow as return from the town of ponyville,it seems that they made contact with the beastman shaman and his daughter and just like you predicted the fools under the name of friendship tried to befriend the shaman's daughter but they fail and she left the town,all so my spies have reported a strange magic in the everfree most likely the beastman is making some kind of ritual" lua timore reported his findings to his masters in hope to please them.

"You done well timore so as a reward your next task will be more to your expertise" the figure told him with a smile. "In less then a week the annual event known as the grand galloping gala will take place in the capital of equestria,the city of canterlot. You are to take a few guards with you and make contact with the princess of friendship twilight sparkle and try to broker an alliance between our lands,but that will not be your real goal in this event what i want from you is to do all i said but in the same time we will prepare a host of undead under the command of my brother it will take them time to get their but while you are their i want your agents and spies to cause havoc when negotiations fail".

"As you command my lord i will arrange for an escort and will depart in 3 hours,but my lord if i may ask why take this course of action why not hold any talking till princess celestia will have no more power in the court?" timore asked his master about the change of approach.

"Are you questioning our words you worm!" the second figure yelled at the bat pony.

But before any more words came out of the figure mouth the third figure the female one stood up,"dear brother their is no need to act like this on our beloved member of the midnight aristocracy,he has proven himself many times and he done many things all ready that will condemned him in the eyes of his fellow ponies its best to tell him of what is happened".

"Very well sister,timore the reason we are moving with this plan and not the original is not only the unknown ritual of the beastman shaman but we all so discover two new problems" the first figure told their most trusted agent.

"Problem? My lord" lua timore asked.

"Yes our necromancers discovered and unknown magic source that came from the great swamp lands close to the badlands,we send scouts days ago but they failed to report so when we tried to determine what was the source of magic we discover only one thing an image of the The Rotten Symbol of the Urfather. The second problem is more concerning for now their had being reports of red eyes with dark fur moving back and forth from mountains,caves,tunnels,cities and of many kidnappings. It appear they had all so notice the change in the winds and they on the move to strike most likely in the gala,all so along the border between the ponies and griffins their was reported a body count of 56 murdered ponies and griffins the kingdoms don't know who done it but we know it was the latest weapon developed by undervermin. If they will get to the princess before we do then our plans will become more hard to make,so now that you have all the information i think it will be best if you began your departure to canterlot".

"Yes my lords i will not fail you" lua timore said to his masters as he left the chamber to began is leave to canterlot.

The three siblings walked to the large window of the room and they looked over their dark domain they lift their goblets,"brother,sister if all will go to our plan then our 8000 years on this world would be not for nothing,for the von kruts!" the first brother said.

"FOR THE VON KRUTS!" his brother and sister follow his words.

The first brother called one of the pony maids of the Castle to them,the earth pony maid was afraid to her core but if she will not do her job worse things then death can follow. "You summoned my lord" she said to the masters of the land.

"Yes my dear bring us a new vintage of blood wine from the kirin stock".

"As you wish my lord" she said and she left to bring them their bloody drink.

They looked once more to the window and the first brother said with pride in is voice"we will fulfill the legacy of nagash".

unknown location-below the surface of equus:

Over the years since the day discord was first defeated by the alicorn sisters to the day when twilight and all of the world won in the battle of the bell everyone on the surface of the world knew what was happening in their life,but what about the underground of the world. Unknown to the entire world of equus a cancer gnaws and spread to all parts of the world all but one part the everfree forest. Over the years many have disappear without a trace or assassinated with no eye witness to see what happened,strange noises from the gutter of cities and strange shadows moving in the night and last strange earthquakes happening in places that had never had quakes before like they are unnatural in some way.

Underneath the surface of an old diamond dogs mining point near the equestrian border the mine in the outside it was abandoned but the more you go in the more you will see what was the reason for many of what happened around the world or who was the reason. Deeper underground many tunnels were build and in one of the center of the tunnels loud noises of machines was heard and in every corner of the tunnels green vile rocks were glowing,along the road medium sized rats ran along in a group but one of the rats was grabbed by a paw of some beast only that the truth was more horrific the paw belong to a rat creature the size of diamond dogs. The rat creature started to eat the small rat he grabbed and in the view behind him a massive sound of hundreds of this ratman marching in the tunnels to where no one knows.

In the center of the outpost of the strange ratman four tall ratman guards with armor and halberds stood their ground while two ratman where talking very angry to each other.

"WE NEED MORE TIME-TIME!" said an armored ratman with a sword and a whip to the second ratman with a letter in his paw.

"No more time-time his most cunning of masters ordered the grey seer and the rest of the warlords to prepare for the age of the rat,your order-task is to send slave rats and clan rats to pony city canterlot and when the time will come we will destroy them in a single blow and then all skaven will march on surface world".

"And how i am to slay-kill the pony leaders they are too strong-strong for me to handle even if i will bring swarm of stormvermin".

"Not to worry grey seer ordered 12 eshin gutter runners to make sure the leaders of the ponies will die-die and just to make sure they will not fail lord grey seer ordered warplock mutator tinker stitch to deploy his most top creations,she will dispose of the horse things very fast yes-yes".

"And what about the beastman in the forest and his horse spawn?" the skaven overseer asked the messenger.

"They are to be ignored for now we can't risk them using the winds on us when we are close to finish our task. One more word-message we found out that a packet of pestilence monks and chaos things somehow arrived in the huge swamp lands they are to be consider enemies and will be killed-killed in time,now go-go in the horned rat".

the great swamp:

In one of the great swamps in equus a huge camp was build and inside this camp where thousands of humans with pox,rot and foul stench of smell all over them. Some of them where skinny and some of them where fat but both had the same look of foul decay,among this humans where more of the skaven but they had green robes on them and their skin was full of pox as well. Among them their where all so huge monsters that words could not describe and inside the fort a group of armored humans taller then celestia and luna combined stood watch while inside the tent two humans one with an armor all over him and a rusted axe on his side and a second human that was fat with and had only a few robes on him alongside a staff and a helmet that a strange ooze came out of it,and last was a skaven plague monk with two flails in his hands.

"We should attack, now!" the armored human yelled.

"We need more time-time to bring more of our congregation of decay to this world" the plague monk responded in his turn.

"I agree with our pestilence allies,our blightstormers need more time as well to bring this part of their world to the garden. And we can't attack without the saying of lord "bubobus the tallyman",but i think i know a way to speed the process" the second human informed his armored lord.

"Then do as you think we should act i will not defy the words of lord tallyman but can't just sit and do nothing have the skaven and our marauder scout and find more food and slaves,tell our torturers gather more information from this talking ponies we found and i want this camp to become a fort to the same power of the brass keep understood!" the tall armored northman yelled to his fellow.

"Yes-yes we go now-now" the plague monk said and he left to his forces.

"At once my lord" the plague sorcerer said after and teleport to the rest of the sorcerers.

The armored chaos chosen of nurgle got out of the tent and he look to the horizon and said out loud,"soon when our lord will come with the rest of our army this world will fall to nurgle's rot" and as he said it many voices from behind were heard and in view were thousands of northman,skaven and monsters in the camp of the plague-pact.
