Proper Evil's Return

Celestia spoke in a clear confident voice that demanded attention, a voice that didn’t impress the creature as it simply stared into Celestia’s eyes. “You have refused to tell me how to translate the book of prophecies that your race created so now I leave you with a pony that I think you will enjoy working with.” Celestia paused for a moment to take a breath and gauge the creature’s reaction before continuing. “But make no mistake, Evalin, you step out of line, you hurt anypony here, you do anything to make me regret this decision and you will be thrown back into your cell in Canterlot dungeon and you will never leave it again!” She yelled as a little of the royal canterlot voice started to activate.

To all of the ponies' surprise the creature (who was now named Evalin) simply threw his head back as far as he could and let out a mad cackle. Then Evalin gave Celestia a mock bow as he spoke. “Of course your royal highness. Just a quick question: would you like a hoof massage with that, oh what about a bowl of cherries?” When he rose from his mock bow he had a smirk plastered on his face, one that was soon replaced by a look of confusion. Evalin then shuffled to Celestia’s left and looked behind her getting a long hard look at the six bearers of the elements.

His eyes focused on Twilight Sparkle before going wide, his head pulled back as if he had been struck. His jaws made several small movements as he looked at Twilight, after a good ten seconds he composed himself and walked towards the six ponies. He stopped when he was only a few steps away from them. He then straightened himself and cleared his throat, before giving a quick bow to the six ponies before him. “I suppose that I’m going to be stuck with all of you for a while so let’s get this out of the way. My name is Evalin and I will most likely be forced to enjoy your company until the book is translated at which point I shall most likely be returned to my cell.” His eyes moved from one pony to the next throughout his introduction, but his eyes lingered on Twilight for a few seconds longer than the others.

Rainbow Dash flew towards him and pointed a hoof at his face. “You won’t be hurting any pony as long as I’m here buddy.” Evalin chuckled as he lazily swatted at her with both of his bound hands before he decided to speak.

“The only thing you have to worry about for me is how you are going to feed me, unlike the dragons that you are associated with I cannot eat gems. Trying to do so would only hurt my fangs and be a waste of my time.” Rainbow Dash turned her head slightly as he was speaking before she asked the question that everypony other than Celestia was thinking.

“What do you eat then?” Evalin gave a loud rolling chuckle before answering her as a small sneer started to grow on his snout.

“Meat, preferably red but I have eaten bugs and Changelings before,” Evalin said as he threw one hand to the side before it was stopped by the chains. Rainbow Dash and most of the other ponies’ eyes went wide at that remark, Celestia however used her magic to summon the book which she passed to Twilight while keeping an eye on Evalin.
