Prologue: Colorful Portal
Wow...I didn't think I was this good as acrid. It's been almost an hour yet I haven't died. I've been in hahahaha stage for 10 minutes yet I haven't died. Just gotta beat 2 overloading stone titans, which is a pretty tough boss. Something weird happened at the beginning of this stage though. The chat said a colorful orb appeared. I've seen a blue orb, Celestial, Gold, but not colorful. It also seems kind of a childish word. Why not like Spectral. That seems more like this game. Whatever, It's something new I haven't seen yet. After beating the titans The portal appeared and...wow it's a lot more childish then I thought it was. It literally is epilepsy in a oval. A lot of flashing rainbow colors going back and forth. Well What's on the other side. WE SHALL SEE!!!
Jaxon Presses the Y button and suddenly the TV Shuts off. He looks disappointed but suddenly the portal appears above him and he panics as is draws him closer and closer. He passes through the portal and his body starts to morph. His skin becomes purple and his head grows out and becomes a Alligator like head. His mouth dripping with a venomous liquid, in a light green color. His hands and feet become claws and his hair disappears as spikes appear along his back up to his head. The transformation completes with 2 new eyes and Full green color lenses.
ugh...What the...What happened? Wait...Why am I purple...And have claws. Am...Am I...Acrid? No...No freaking way, this is a dream. Totally just a dream. Just gotta wake up. Come on man wake up jaxon. WAKE THE FREAK UP! Well...I guess I just don't wanna wake up. lemme just see where I am. Please say sky meadows or Scorched fields. I'd love to fight Imp overlord.
He looks around and doesn't see anything that seems to be indicating any level of risk of rain. He walks up a hill and see's a town with a castle with a river coming down on the side of a mountain. "hmm...Maybe I'm not in risk of rain. Maybe some other game or maybe a show or movie?" He says to himself. He was about to go down the hill and find someone when he saw something move. He looked that direction and saw 2...ponies? One with a blue skin and rainbow hair, and another with yellow skin and pink hair, both with wings. "Oh...Freakin great. I'm in My little pony. Just the place for a Acid spitting space void beast. Then again I guess mlp had a some pretty cool monsters," He said to himself.

See ya next chapter.
Chapter 1: Meeting the Beast
"Come on Fluttershy! We're almost there, and I gotta show you something after we get the food for the animals," Rainbow said to Fluttershy.
"I know Rainbow dash, but we don't have to be quick all the time. It's nice to just slow down and enjoy the scenery," Fluttershy said.
"Sure bu- Wait...What was that?" Rainbow was cut of by the sound of something...Dripping. They look to the left and see a beast. A Purple skinned being with a stretched out head and a green mouth, with claws and a standing upwards stance. It looked like an alien as neither of them have seen anything like it, and coming from Fluttershy, that's pretty big. Seeing the potential danger Rainbow dash went into a defensive stance and Fluttershy hiding in a bush.
"Who and What are you!" Rainbow Dash said to the beast, however only get growls and barks back. However Fluttershy heard it through and through.
"Rai-Rainbow, He said 'Don't worry, I'm nice?'" Fluttershy said to her.
"Oh please, you look like the definition of evil. I'm gonna go get help, Fluttershy run!" Rainbow said as she took off. Fluttershy took off as well, looking back at acrid as she flew off to Ponyville.
Great, Now 2 of the main characters are thinking I'm evil. Wow, I forgot ponies in this are so xenophobic. Maybe I could convince Fluttershy or the changelings to take me in. Worst case, I live in the forest.
"And it was like, a ape with an alligator head, claws, and it was purple and green," Rainbow tried to act out what acrid looked like.
"Sounds like spike except without the head," Applejack said.
"I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THIS!" Spike shout, feeling like he was being accused.
"Spike it's ok, We didn't think you did, AJ was just pointing it out," Twilight said. "Well where did you see this thing? It doesn't sound like anything I've heard of or seen."
"Just up the hill near the big curvy tree. However, what rainbow left out was that I heard him say that, that, 'D-Don't worry, I'm nice'," Fluttershy revealed.
"Why didn't you mention that Rainbow? If Fluttershy can communicate with him or it, wait, Fluttershy what makes you think It's a he?" Spike asked.
"When he spoke it sounded like a 19 year old stallion," Fluttershy said convincingly.
"Well, if Fluttershy can communicate with him, then maybe we can see if he is evil or not, and if he is evil, well we know how to take him down, right?" Twilight said. "Come on let's see if I can do a locator spell and find it," Twilight said as her horn started glowing.
"Well if the thing is evil, shouldn't we be prepared? I mean, the stuff dripping from it's mouth looked like it was melting the ground, and I don't feel like losing my skin," Rainbow dash said worrying.
"We've taken down chrysalis and Tirek, I think we can take down a poisonous ape alligator. Speaking of which, shouldn't we give it a name? We can't just call it Poisonous ape alligator," Applejack said.
"What about Venom? If it is coming from the thing, isn't it venom not poison?" Spike asked twilight.
"I like that name. Let's call it venom," Twilight said as her locator map finished. She continues, "It says that he is near the little cave in the hill," as she points at the hill.
Rainbow dash pounds her hooves together,"Beware Venom, We're coming for you."
