Chapter 42: Is This Considered an After Party? Part 1.

*Point of view: Princess Celestia*
*Time: Nine in the morning*
*Location: Canterlot castle*

The sun is now, more than a third of the way across the sky. The birds are chirping happily. The palace staff are all working diligently. The citizens down below are busy on the streets and byways. The Princess is up in her room, looking over at all. All the while, biting her nails as her eyes darted to-and-fro, with a heavy bead of sweat on her brow, as she paced nervously within the room and just a few feet away from the window.

She was wearing her regular regalia, consisting of white and gold ornamental jewelry, that was placed directly over her white dress. During this time of the day, she would be at her best before day court, Princess Celestia would have been seen as the picture-perfect symbol of beauty. However, in her current state, she was anything but that. This was due to her constantly biting away at her nails, along with both her mane and tail, were a complete mess. With parts slightly sticking out. There were even these heavy bags under her eyes that showed that she had trouble sleeping recently.

As she continued her pacing, her hooves were beginning to create a noticeable groove, as she muttered to herself and stealing a few quick glances out of the window and towards the Everfree Forest. “Nightmare Moon is going to be free tomorrow. You got this Tia. You've had all these years to prepare yourself. All you have to do, is rely on Twilight to make some friends and unlock the elements of harmony. Either the elements are going to lock her away again or free her from the Nightmare. Either way, it's up to Twilight.”

Her eyes then drifted over to the picture frame and the music box on the edge of her nightstand. Quietly, she said to herself, “Am I really doing the right thing? Will she be OK out there without me to help guide her? What… What if she meets a sea dragon or gets caught by a manticore? She has yet to master her teleportation spells fully! What if she ends up falling off a cliff?! That mare's always been a little clumsy when it comes to watching her surroundings whenever she gets too focused. Was it really right of me not to tell her about Nightmare Moon and just send her off to that town?”

That was when she started to shake her head and pace even quicker, while continuing. “No! I can't think that way. I trust her. She knows what to do, she's a smart mare. Besides, she has spike with her. Even if he’s still young, Spike is quite mature for his age. I dare say, if he wasn't with her at all times, then I would be fearful of Twilight walking into the pond on a regular basis. Oh Twilight... I do hope that you are better than I and can avoid the same mistakes...”

After those words, she began to use her magic on the vanity mirror and all of the brushes sitting on it, to tidy herself up. Once she was presentable for court, she made her way towards the door and opened it. However, before she went through, she took another look towards the nightstand and started to briefly think to herself. “If I'd only pay attention all those years ago. Then I might have been able to avoid those mistakes.”

After those words were spoken and a door was halfway being closed behind her. Princess Celestia had a small look of concentration as she slowly tapped her chin before she went on to say to herself. “Now, if I’m not mistaken, I have an appointment to talk to some pony from the royal Institute of Magic and Science.” She then let out a small side before continuing. “There’s no doubt in my mind that this is in regards to, ‘T H I S.’ not even myself has been allowed to even enter their premises thanks to the land being privately owned.”


*Point of view: Brex Mith*
*Location: Town square*
*Time: Eleven-thirty in the morning*

Brex was currently sitting on one of the empty benches that was surrounding the mayor's office. While in the shadow realm. Nearby, was a small group of females that were whispering to themselves as they glanced around. “Can you believe that not a single pony has spotted the stallion from yesterday? We even went to the Flower sister's shop and they said that he had left earlier in the day. Just how hard is it to find a stallion that's over seven and a half feet tall and wearing a mask inside of Ponyville?”

“Yeah. I like, asked my sister and she hasn't seen hide nor hair of him. You don't think, he up and left town, do you? I mean, it’s bad enough with all the competition here in town, but we even got the whole Apple clan sitting at Sweet Apple Acres. Once word gets to them, then we're gonna have a whole lot more out here, trying to get their mitts on him.”

“Oh, I'm pretty sure they already know about it. After all, Applejack was there to see the whole thing happening. Seeing as her dad and brother are the way they are, I wouldn't be surprised if she was hunting him down too. You know, keep the whole gene pool of strong stallions going.”

“Oh my. You don't think she’d goes so far as to lasso the stallion and drag him home, do you? She could be rather brutish at times whenever she gets her mind set on something. Anyways, let's get back to the streets. He's gotta be around here someplace. Wait, did any of you check the Adventures Guild, to see if he’s in there? Let's go over right now. Maybe we can get the jump on him!”

After that, the group began to talk to each other some more as they left earshot. Brex then began to mumble to himself, just low enough to make sure that none could hear him if they were close by. “I really get the feeling that they've gotten worse over the last decade. Sure, there were those really aggressive ones in some of the big cities.”

“But I didn't think it'd be like that in a small town like this. By the seven hells... If there like this on a normal day... What the fuck are they going to do while they're in the middle of their heat season?” This thought caused a bone chilling sensation to run up his spine as he pulled his arms in and grabbed on to both of his elbows, as he adopted a blank stare behind his mask.

He then went on to think, “Let's see. My body double showed me that Twilight just left the castle a little while ago. So, if they're taking a flying chariot just like in the show, then Twilight should arrive anytime. Now, the current question is, how should I go about, how I do things today? I could always do the whole, tag along with Twilight, while she goes around and does the whole checking on the festivity’s routine.”

“But then, I'd run the risk of her asking too many questions and figuring out who I am. Hmm... I could always shadow them and watch as things progress. That way, I can get a good feel for how these versions of the main six are, without having to worry about them acting differently when seeing me. Oh well, I guess I'll just go back with the whole play it by ear plan. By the way. Rory, how's it looking on your end? Any complications that I should know about?”

He then heard Rory replying. “Nope. We got it all handled over on our end, Master.” This got Brex to say, “Whatever happens, I need you to stick to the plan.” That was when he heard Rory asking, “By the way Master. Isn't there supposed to be a party going on at the library for Twilight? Are you going to be attending?”

Brex began to grumble as he said, “Rory, you know how I am when it comes to large parties. Also, if I was to go in, I'd be pretty much trapped with so many of the females of this town that are already stalking me. But really, I understand that girls are sometimes attracted to the mysterious guy’s vibe. But this is just ridiculous!”

“I bet you if I did take off this mask of mine and show them what I was, they'd suddenly leave me alone.” During this self-defamation of character. Brex was looking straight ahead at another pair of mare’s that he had seen, only twenty minutes ago and it appeared that they were still on the search for him. Which was plainly obvious with the way they were passing all of the stalls and had their eyes roaming, as they continue to walk.

Rory was now giggling a little bit at this point and was now beginning to speak in her joking tone. “Come now Master! You can't honestly tell me that you're not enjoying the attention from all of these females, even just a little bit. This is pretty much every hot blooded, straight male, wet dream. I really do wish that you would take advantage of it at times.”

Brex had just now, started to rub his gloved hand down his face, while speaking in a defeated tone. “Rory, there are times where I really don't understand you. I get that you are made up of my preferences in all. But I don't really think it's normal that my girlfriend would keep trying to push other girls on me. I mean, isnt Rin and Lin enough? I still can't believe that you managed to talk me into including the both of them.” That was when he caught sight of a approaching object in the sky.


*Point of view: Twilight Sparkle*
*Location: Ponyville*
*Time: Eleven-fifty-seven, In the morning*

Twilight was in the back of an open top carriage, being pulled along by a set of Pegasus guards and was right about the land, while she was still in mid-sentence. “And I'm telling you again Spike. I will check on the preparations for the celebration and complete my royal duties. But the fate of Equestria, does not rest on me making friends!” Afterwards, she exited the carriage and thanked the guards. Who then immediately took off, to return to Canterlot.

The mare that took a few short steps, was hey Unicorn with the fur coloring of Pale, light grayish mulberry. Her mane and tail were a dark sapphire blue and moderate purple. There were these streaks of brilliant raspberry. At the moment she was wearing something similar to an, all girls private school uniform. Very similar to the outfit she would have had, when passing through the magic mirror.

As for spike. He was the adopted brother of Twilight Sparkle. The dragon appeared to be slightly human like in form compared to his original shape in the television show. By comparison he was nearly a foot and a half shorter than Twilight herself. Considering what his age was that was quite tall.

At the moment spike was wearing a set of dark blue, blue jeans and a green undershirt. Over that, was a purple zip-up hoodie. Just like how it is with all the ponies he had no foot coverings, which exposed a set of clawed feet.

(Here is a picture of Spike and Twilight.)

From there, things pretty much didn't go as Twilight had expected, with each encounter seemingly as stressful as the last. First, there was that weird run-in with that mare with the puffy pink hair, that suddenly started to let out startled gasp. Before quickly running away in a big hurry, right as spike got her to attempt a greeting.

The next thing that happened, was when she went to go and check on the food preparations and visited a farm called, Sweet Apple Acres. That was where she met an orange mare that almost tore her arm off, with the overly enthusiastic handshake. Then, proceeded to not take no for an answer and introduce her to the entire Apple clan by name. Even when she tried to get away and say that she had things to do, she was pretty much strong armed by the cutest little filly she had ever seen, giving her the puppy eyes.

By the time she had gotten out of there. She was on the verge of dragging her own belly on the dirt with the use of all of her limbs with how full she felt. It didn't help much when she was literally blindsided by a blue mare with a rainbow styled color scheme and being pushed into the mud.

Seemingly sorry with what happened, this one tried to help Twilight out and rushed off to get a cloud. This was then followed with her getting completely drenched right through or clothing. Of course, she ended up with a very messed up mane during the whole, washing and drying process being provided by the Pegasus after the mud incident.

She had soon found out that the one in charge for clearing the clouds, was not doing her job and constantly talking about the Wonder Bolts. In order to get the task done, Twilight had to carefully choose her words in order to steer the not so helpful Pegasus into doing her job and was stunned at the speed in which it was completed in.

The next part on the list that needed to be checked on, was the decorations. Twilight and Spike headed straight for the celebration spot, that was to be the large building situated in the center of town, where the mayor resides. Upon entering, she was awestruck by how well everything looked and it seemed that her dragon brother, was equally enthusiastic as well. But soon found out that it was not for that, but instead, his eyes were fully glued to the white mare with a purple mane, that was in charge.

Twilight was barely able to get out a few words, before the mare suddenly started ushering her across town and into her store as soon as she got a good look at the messed-up hair that Twilight had. She didn't know exactly how much time passed or how it even happened. But she was already in the middle of trying out different types of clothing, that seemed to come and go in a flash as the white mare continued to go on about, what would look great on her.

Twilight had been reduced to going down to just her panties and bra, by the time she was being fitted into a corset and was having the air squeezed out of her, as the chords were being pulled tightly. But thankfully, she managed to wheeze out a response to one of the mare’s, many, many questions and told her that she was from Canterlot. This was apparently enough to get the mare to finally let go and go on a short rant about how great it is there. Before rushing off after realizing that something wasn't quite right about the jewelry that she was trying to put on Twilight.

As soon as the mare was out of line of sight. Twilight quickly rushed over after tearing the corset off and made a bee-line to the front door. After quickly grabbing onto her clothing, using her magic to get it back on by the time she'd gone outside. Along with muttering something about getting out of there, before her coat is dyed a different color. She even had to use her magic to levitate her younger brother out of there. His arms just dangled there limply, as he looked back towards the way they came.

Twilight was still running pretty quickly, as she made her way out of town and on to their next destination. Which was on the very edge of Ponyville, by the looks of the address on the paperwork that her brother was holding.

Spike had informed her that the next pony to see, was to be in charge of the music. Once she had gotten a good distance away from the rest of the buildings and down the beaten path. Twilight began to hear a melodious chorus of bird songs just over the next hill. There, she found a yellow Pegasus, that was hovering several feet off the ground, while talking to a row of birds stretched out on a tree with very little leaves on it.

When twilight approached and tried to introduce herself. The young mare had shot straight up in the air, after letting out a startled yep. Before slowly coming down for a landing and was now holding her chest as she was trying to calm herself from a apparently, near heart attack moment.

Although, when the introductions had started up once more and Twilight gave her name. The mare was whispering so low, that no matter how many times the Unicorn asked. She was unable to get her name and eventually gave up and awkwardly walked away after telling her to keep up the good work and looking awkward with how the chat was going.

But, as soon as she had turned her back, she was suddenly stopped when she heard the Pegasus talking in a louder volume. As if a switch had been completely flipped around, the Pegasus had rushed over and was enthusiastically, talking to spike and asking him a cornucopia of questions regarding him and what it was like to be a dragon.

Seeing as Twilight really wanted to get back to the library to work on doing as much research as possible to determine how to stop the, “Mare in the moon.” She had tried to get away from the mare, but was unable to do so by the time they had gotten back to the library and had made a pathetic excuse that she needed to get Spike to bed as if he was some type of small baby. She even went so far as to cause him to get a bump on his head, to disorientate the dragon to make it more convincible to the Pegasus when she used her magic to trip the dragon.

By this time, the sun had already gone down and the street lamps were turning on. So, when Twilight had finally entered the library after closing the door on Fluttershy, the entire room within, was pitch black and Twilight was already speaking to Spike about what she needed to do and how she couldn't be bothered to talk to all of the crazy ponies of this town. Of course, as the show goes, all the lights suddenly turned on and there was a loud, unified shout of, “Welcome to Ponyville!” From a countless number of ponies that were all inside of the library.


*Point of view: Brex Mith*
*Location: In the rafters of the Ceremony Hall. Far, far away from the party*

At the moment, his large figure was sitting at a point, where it was intersecting with a couple of wooden beams, so that he was well out of sight, along with still having his full body weight supported. Currently, he was equipped with some cloth type gear. Which allowed him to be quite comfortable and even had his arms and legs in a pose as they were crossed, so that he would appear to be in a meditative position.

Even with his eyes closed. He had a small smile that was creeping onto his face, as he began to think to himself. “Oh, that Pinkie Pie. I really can't tell if she didn't get that hint about libraries being quiet or if she was just playing it off. “Uh-oh, Twilight just went over to the punch bowl... Seriously? The girl doesn't deserve to have a welcome party and then accidentally do this... Wikes! Wohyee! Her hair and mare really did turn fiery! I guess that's just another one of those cartoon logic’s, throwing itself in the road.”

That was when he heard Rory speaking in his mind. “Master, if you wanted to go to the party, you may as well do it in person. No need to send in a proxy. You didn't even use one of your body doubles.” What Rory was referring to. Was how Brex had summoned one of his Minions and use one of the, Dungeons & Dragons, Feats that is called, Gaze of Two Minds. This allows him to see and hear everything that a willing target does. Typically, this would require it to be another person. But it seems to work on his summoned minions, seeing as they are from him, in a way.

Honestly Brex was very grateful to have chosen to be an artificer. The class allowed him to be quite versatile along with playing with his strengths when coming to learning and building. He even went and got the feat called, Eldritch Adept. This of course, allowed him to tap into, Gaze of Two Minds.

Dungeons & Dragons, Feats. Gaze of Two Minds.

You can use your action to touch a willing humanoid and perceive through its senses until the end of your next turn. As long as the creature is on the same plane of existence as you, you can use your action on subsequent turns to maintain this connection, extending the duration until the end of your next turn. While perceiving through the other creature’s senses, you benefit from any special senses possessed by that creature, and you are blinded and deafened to your own surroundings.

Of course, he had to pick a reasonably safe location to do so. Seeing as the spell would render him blind and death when it was activated. Thankfully enough, he was still able to sense things around him, due to his trained extra senses and situational awareness that Rory helped him develop over the years.

Right now, one of his minions was currently inside of the library and high on one of the bookshelves, far out of sight from any of the ponies in the party. What he ended up using was, a living book called, Page sixty-three. The description for this one, is as follows. “Though unable to read the arcane script penned in blood across this forbidden tome discovered in the Great Gubal Library, you sense much power in the words. Or it could simply be the fact that the book follows you.”

Brex chuckled to himself when he was skimming through his list to pick one out and thought this one would be the perfect chameleon to throw into a library full of rowdy ponies. And of course, with the only one there that was interested in books more than any being upstairs, it was easily the best minion to choose when silently listening, while in plain sight.

(Here is a picture of the minion here.)

After that. He continued to keep an eye on the events, while directing his minion from spot to spot, in order to avoid the pink menace. Who was currently looking around at random locations as if on the search for something. After some time, he ended up moving his minion down to the lower levels and was now keeping it behind a potted plant, that was near a random group of ponies.

Because of the nonstop chatter around, it was difficult to separate their voices. But eventually, Brex managed to catch on to one of them. “I'm tellin yeah just what I saw. That was no normal stallion!” Hearing that, instantly made Brex roll his eyes in both his own head and those of his minion when hearing this. Which was no easy feat seeing as it had no real eyes to begin with.

The Roegadyn was really beginning to be annoyed with how they just, will not stop talking about him in this town. He then began to think, “There has to be some other things that they could think about. The weather? Maybe what you do on your time off? Your hair? ANYTHING!!! I don't care anymore! I'll even settle on you all talking about… property taxes.”

He was about to make his minion move on to another part of the party, but stopped upon hearing what was said next. “Something just doesn't add up, or I'll start eating oranges if I'm wrong. I know I aint a part of the Adventurer's Guild and all. But now that I start thinking about it… Hay! I know! Rainbow, weren't you yapping about those trading cards of yours last month?”

Next up, was undeniably the voice of Rainbow Dash. “Huh? Um, yeah. Why do you ask Applejack? You weren't all that interested in them before when I was talking to you about them.” Applejack was the next to speak as she could be seen tapping her hoof next to the minion, that was only a foot away. From where it was, all he could see was everything below the knees.

“Wasn't there this one character that stood out that you were yammering about? What was his name again? You said something about how worthless the card looked. Also, you complained about how it should never have even been printed to begin with.”

After a few seconds of silence, Brex could hear Rainbow Dash exclaiming. “Ah, I know who you're talking about. That card always gets thrown out from what I hear. No pony in the right minds even holds on to that thing for more than a few minutes and just looks for it immediately and throws it into the nearest trash-can whenever a pack is opened up.”

Now For once, Brex was beginning to be interested in what these ponies finally had to say after a full day of gossiping about him. He had no idea that there was something like trading cards in Equestria. What was said next, only caused his curiosity to crumble and his mind to go blank as Rainbow Dash, continued to talk.

“Yeah, I remember who you're talking about. He's that worthless Adventurer that popped up a decade ago. Poor schmuck must not know what he’s doing, If he hasn't gotten even one rank up after all this time. It's common knowledge that any pony could go up to rank E, at the end of the first month. No matter what they do, as long as they don't end up costing a pony their life from botching up a quest. Seriously! The guy started off as level ten and every pony thought that he was gonna become some big shot too.”

“In the end, he still only a rank F looser, along with how his stats haven't changed at all. He's gotta be the most useless stallion I've ever heard of. I bet you that he even somehow managed to cheat on that level scoring that the tablet shows, to get such a high number when you register. I don't even remember what his name is. Whenever I start to see the beginning of this picture, I immediately throw it over my shoulder!”

“Also, they keep making a mistake with how is age never changes whenever they release a new pack. I bet he hasn't even been doing much at all, so they're just reusing the same information over and over from back then as some sort of joke. But really, if I was that stallion, I'd crawl down in a hole and die! Even if he’s a male, I bet no mare’s gonna want to have kids with him out of fear of having some, ultra-weaklings in the family.”

With each sentence that the blue Pegasus released from her lips. Was sending this odd, pang of discomfort that ran throughout his body. In a way, it was similar to comparing his body to a large bell, being struck by a mallet. That was when he started to think to himself, in a very dejected tone. “I know that I wanted to not have any exposure. But hearing it, really doesn't make it any better.”

That was when he heard Rory beginning to talk within his mind. But instead of her usual tone. This one was heavily laced with malice. “Master... It's not too late to find a replacement for the Element of Loyalty... I would so very much enjoy it, if you gave me permission to come over there and have a... Private. Discussion with this, Rainbow Dash. I can make sure that it is a very… lengthy one at that.”

Brex merely shook both his real body's head and the one of his minion when he replied back. “It's fine. No need to get upset about this small issue. After all, everyone's entitled to their own opinion.” Now, Brex could literally feel the anger with how Rory was growling through the connection, before she started to speak in a strained voice. “Master, please don't say that this is a small issue or that it doesn't matter. As soon as we're done with what's happening there, I'm heading straight to where those damn cards are made at and-.”

That was when the Roegadyn raised his internal voice to scold Rory. “You will do no such thing! Now, I know that you're upset and you have a thing against me putting myself down. But the reality is, this is how the world sees Gambit and it's my own doing. This has been orchestrated and I'm going to go through with it. If there are those out there that are going to make fun of my Adventurer persona. Then so be it. I only created the character so that I can gather information and walk about, while having an identity to use and pass-through checkpoints.”

Anyhow, I don't think there is anything useful for me to listen to anyway. Twilight's already up in her room and nothing's really going to happen until the celebration starts later tonight. I'll just call back my minion and take a little rest while I'm here in the rafters.” Before the connection faded, he heard her saying, “If that's what you want Master, then I won't argue about it anymore.”

After that, the minion did just what Brex wanted and went behind a large object that was within the room and disappeared in a small flash of light that went unnoticed by any of the room’s occupants.


*Point of view: Rarity*

From where she stood. Rarity could tell how Applejack was very close to doing something very unladylike to Rainbow Dash, whenever the Pegasus kept going on about this, silly old trading card. That was when she stepped in and said, “Oh come now dear! It's just not very polite to talk about some pony in such a manner. You have to keep in mind, that this is a stallion. They all can't be expected to be the same as Applejack's family. I for one, applaud his very tenacity to even do such an act as even Registering. After all, they all can't be heroes such as those told in the old stories.”

After she had said those words, she immediately began to wish that she hadn't upon seeing Applejack currently sending daggers in her way. For a brief instant, she had this image of the farm mare rushing at her so fast, that the both of them might have gone through the wall. That was when she started to think, “Oh dear! I really, as they say, stepped in it this time. Applejack has always been on the side of the stallions. Perhaps I should have reworded my previous statement from earlier.”

Either Rainbow Dash was incapable of reading the situation or was intentionally going after Applejack. The Pegasus just continued on. “You can't be serious Rare’s. This guy's got no business carrying one of those name plates. I mean, the guy is obviously afraid of showing his face with how he always has it covered up with a mask.” This was when Rarity commented with, “Oh, I am sure that this gentle-stallion, is probably just shy is all. Can't fault him for that.”

Rainbow Dash only continued further with, “Oh, and just look at that equipment of his. The guy wasn't even a Unicorn and he was wearing robes. He should have been wearing some heavy plated armor with how big he was. I mean, this guy looked like he was taller than even Celestia in the picture.”

“I bet you that was even doctored too. There's also with how some of his stats aren't even written down. These cards always show the name, age and the race of whoever's on them. But on his, it only says that his race is, “Restricted.” Now something is really off he asked me. You must also be a real coward with how he wears mostly yellow and some brown on the hood. You can't even see an inch of fur on his body, with how he’s all covered up.”

As the Pegasus continued on, Rarity was slowly beginning to form an image in her head from the, crass description. She then started to think to herself. “Hmm-Hmm... So, the stallion is taller than the princess. Obviously very muscular from how Rainbow spoke of him. He's mostly covered up and where's mostly, Yellow... And... Brown? Along with always wearing a mask?”

With every thread of information, she was beginning to stitch together the image in her mind. The fashionista was beginning to feel quite odd. Out of nowhere, she had this brief, flash of wanting to strike Rainbow Dash in the muzzle, as hard as she could. But somehow managed to bury that down under her ladylike training, as her outwardly expression became blank.

It took her a few seconds to regain her composure and was now showing a slightly strained smile, as she turned back towards Rainbow Dash before speaking, as her right eye twitched, but once. “Pardon me dear. But you mentioned a mask, did you not? You wouldn't happen to remember how it appeared on that picture of yours, do you?” Inside of Rarity's mind, she was literally praying to Celestia that what was about to be said, would not lineup.

Rainbow Dash was now scratching the right side of her head, as she looked straight up at the ceiling in thought. Before she answered Rarity, without so much as looking in her direction. “Let me see. I think it was something really stupid. Now, was it a clown mask? Nah! I'm pretty sure that it was black-and-white. There were these round eye holes, but you couldn't see to his eyes through them. The black lines swirled around and it looked like some type of animal. Oh, that's right! Right on the forehead was a purple stone, stuck right on the middle of the forehead!”

Rarity had suddenly felt an oncoming dizzy spell coming on, but fought through it in order to ask her next questions. “You, wouldn't happen to have one of these cards anywhere for me to look at, would you? Or perhaps tell me where I can find one myself?” That was when Rainbow Dash said, “Sorry Rare’s. Like I said, I don't keep those. And I doubt you'd be able to find them in any of the card packs anymore. Last I saw one, was over close to two years ago.”

Rarity was now fighting to keep her composure as she then asked, “And you are positive that you do not recall his name? Not even in the slightest?” To which got her a very quick shake of the head from the blue Pegasus. Before she responded with, “Sorry again Rare’s. The guy really, really, wasn't all that popular. I don't really know what the reason was and I don't care. This just means that there's another slot open for a better one to take when I go to open another pack for my collection.”

Again, Rarity just stared at Rainbow Dash, without showing it on the outside, that anything was wrong. However, within, it was a whole different story. The prim and proper Rarity. Wanted nothing more than the grab the nearest, biggest object she could find and smash it over Rainbow Dash's head. But with it being Fluttershy, who has been quiet this whole time, she couldn't bring herself to do so. Now if it was pinkie pie, then the pink mare might have some fun if she was thrown. Perhaps not so much upon impact with the blue mare that had started to bring up these strong urges.

She then heard the blue Pegasus asking, “You've never been very interested in those cards before. Why do both you and Applejack wanna start asking about them now?” Rarity quickly answered while reaching for a cup of fruit punch to drink. “Oh, it's nothing my dear, don't think anything about it. But I would like to be informed as to why Applejack had brought it up to begin with myself.”

Applejack was now taking off her hat and slightly fanning herself, before putting it back on as she answered. “Well, it has to do with how that noble got arrested Yesterday. You see the one that defended the cafe worker that got injured. Turned out to be a really big fella and he was wearing a set of robes, along with a mask that sounds a lot like the one that Rainbow Dash mentioned. Although his color of clothing was not right. He was mostly wearing white, with blue on his hood and shoulders. And I think there may have been some silver coloring on some of the parts. I also couldn't see anything about him with how his whole body had some type of clothing on every bit.”

“You have to be there to believe it. This stallion literally broke two sets of swords, with nothing but a spoon. That's what I meant about the whole thing seeming weird. I don't know if this is the same fella, or perhaps they know one another by going off of how they both have the same mask. Because there's no way that a level ten did that.”

It was Fluttershy that managed to gain their attention after trying to speak for the last several seconds, due to how her timid nature made her voice so hard to hear. “Um.. You could always ask him. I mean... If, that's OK with you.” In the beginning, Fluttershy had a voice that could be heard over the background music and chatting of the other ponies. But began to lose its strength quickly and by the end of her suggestion, she had already retreated behind her pink mane and only her right eye could be seen, poking between the strands of hair.

Applejack released a tired sigh, as she slowly shook her head before she answered that question. “That's a good idea there sugar cube. I wanted to do just that this whole day. While I was making my deliveries, I kept both an eye and an ear out. Didn't catch hide nor hair of the guy. I even heard that a lot of the girls in town haven't even seen him as well. It's almost like the stallion just up and vanished.”

“I started to think that he just stayed inside at the Flower Sister's Shop, or the part up top where they live in. But that idea ran into a dead end when I heard some ponies talking about how one of them ended up sneaking inside of their shop to go looking for him and found nothing. She went so far as to talk about how she even got into the room that he’s staying in and started to smell the bed he slept in, to see if she could get a good feel on his scent. I gotta say, some of them are really desperate these days. Almost scary if you ask me.”

“I think the fella's been hiding from all the attention he’s been getting. Why else wouldn't he stick around after the incident. I even got asked a bunch of times if it was a member of mah family. But I know for a fact that each and every one of them was at the farm. The farm mare then lightly chuckled to herself, while having a smile, as she playfully said, “A small part of me was hoping it was my big brother finally coming out of his shell.”

Before Applejack could go on, Pinkie pie suddenly came up from behind the group and had stretched her arms far enough to grab onto the mare on either end of the line and pulled them all in close, to the point that they were nearly knocking heads into one another. The pink mare then said, just above a whisper. “Have ya girl seen the other party guest anywhere?”

This only earned her four sets of eyes that were giving her the confused look, before she continued, along with rolling her own eyes. “I didn't just throw this party for Twilight.” Still not getting any kind of response from the group, she then released an exasperated sigh that was way too loud before she went on. “Come on! You know who I'm talking about. He's big, Tall, Muscular and always keeps himself covered and has a severe mistrust of females. I've been keeping an eye out during the whole party and I still don't see him.”

It was Rarity who began to ask in a slow voice. While attempting to protect her mane from getting messed up in their current position. “Pinky, darling. Would you mind running that last bit by me once more?” This got Pinkie Pie to repeat how he was big, tall and always was covered up. But seem to stop right there and didn’t repeat the part about females. This only got the fashionista to get a little irritated before moving on.

“I suppose we shall see him sooner or later. The night is still young.” Right now, Rarity was containing her excitement that this mystery might be cleared up. However, what she thought she heard Pinkie Pie saying about having a severe mistrust of females was nagging at her mind. But played it off as mishearing.

Soon those thoughts were dashed when she heard Pinkie Pie saying the next part. “Oh! That’s right! He never got an invitation. I already knew that Twilight was going to be coming here. But I really did try to find him to give him his. I checked everywhere. Literally went to every single room in town. “By the way Rarity, really like the plushy on your bed!”

This got the white mare to laugh out, while having a heavy blush on her face as she said, “Pinkie Pie! You do not go into another lady’s room without permission!” Rainbow Dash, was the next to speak, when she started to scratch at the side of her head with a very confused expression. “Hold on! Even Pinkie Pie can't catch this guy?! Even she can find me when I use my hide skill!”


*Point of view: Brex Mith*
*Location: Celebration Hall*
*Time: Five, fifty-five in the morning*

Brex was quickly woken up when he began to sense the presence of many individuals coming into the building and saw that it was nearly time for the sun to come up. Wanting to be cautious about the event that was soon to start. The Roegadyn switched to his Rogue class and activated his hide skill. This was then followed by slipping into the Shadow Realm, for an extra added layer of stealth, while still high in the rafters.

He then began to ask Rory through the mental connection. “Are all the preparations done?” Immediately, he then heard Rory saying, “All units are on standby at their designated Positions. We even had some of our operatives within the towns, as well as the bunkers notified about the possibility of increased monster activity. I really do hope you're just being overly paranoid about this Master. But if your hunch is correct, then with the extended night time hours, the monsters might end up going nuts. Especially when it comes to the nocturnal ones.”

Brex was worried with eternal night coming. That he had a contingency plan put into action. This consisting of pre issued orders to be followed, in case the worst should happen. Even his headquarters within the badlands was put on high alert by now. The monsters that are typically active during the day, would not stay quiet and the ones that would be awake during the night. would most likely be added to their numbers. This in turn, would cause a catastrophe all over If not managed Properly.

Over the course of the next few minutes, he watched the celebration hall slowly filling up with ponies, that we're all eagerly awaiting to see their princess. One by one, he mentally counted each of the main six as they came into view and took on their expected positions. Rarity was waiting nearby to reveal their princess with a pull of the rope. While at the same time, Fluttershy was on standby, with their arms slightly raised to give the signal to her feathered friends to begin their song.

Of course, there was also Rainbow Dash and Applejack, who were near the snack table. He was sure that he did see Pinkie Pie At one point or another, but lost track of the pink pony. This in turn, caused the Roegadyn to feel a little anxious with not knowing where the pink menace was. Then his eyes rested on the purple mare who had just come in with a sleepy looking Spike in tow. Just as expected, Twilight wasn't looking all that well, with how she kept shifting her gaze back-and-forth from everything in the room, to that of the window.

From there, the next course of events went pretty much how they would in the story. There was the whole fanfare and revealing of an empty spot that was meant to be occupied by their sun princess. Then came the sudden appearance of Nightmare Moon and her little speech that started off with the iconic words, “Oh, my beloved subjects. It's been so long since I've seen your precious, sun loving faces.”

(Here is a picture of Nightmare Moon.)

Then everything went as Brex expected. Mayor mare, ordered for the guards to arrest Nightmare Moon. But were struck with a single lightning bolt to each of them, which rendered them all unconscious and sprawled across the wooden floor.

Afterwards, Nightmare Moon disappeared into a swirling vortex and rushed out of the doorway and into the night sky. Rainbow Dash tried to give chase, but immediately gave up once the mare vanished into the darkness. Brex also saw how Twilight was rushing out of there and heading straight for the Golden Oaks Library. While carrying an unconscious spike laying on her back and his head resting on her shoulder after getting scared senseless by everything, coupled together with his lack of rest from the all-night party.

The blue Pegasus saw this as well and tailed after the purple mare and this caught the attention of the other, future element wielders, who then also ran after them. While still using the hide skill at the same time as staying inside of the shadow realm, Brex followed them and stood near one of the windows, that was connected to the main room on a higher level, just to make sure it wasn't the same one that Nightmare Moon was going to use during her eve's dropping.

He got to see when he had arrived, it was just after Twilight was being accused of being a spy by Rainbow Dash and was pulled by the tail rather sharply by Applejack. From there, he got to listen in while sitting on the railing as they found the book referring to the elements of harmony and Twilight began to read it aloud to the others.

Twilight spoke of where the elements of harmony would reside, which was in the castle of the two sisters, within the Everfree Forest. But just as she was about to close the book and put it down. Pinkie Pie immediately grabbed it and was showing Twilight that there was another page. When seeing this, the Unicorn immediately said the following.

“I didn't know there was another page. Let me see! Hmm-Hmm... It says here, that Princess Celestia had commissioned another means that could be used as a counter measure when it came to the return of, The Mare in The Moon... If all six of the elements cannot be brought together.”

“Then there is another means of stopping her, that had been placed within a small set of ruins to the North East of where the elements are meant to be kept. Where the forest ends and there is nothing but rocks. Located at the very center and the deepest section of land, sits a tomb that can only be revealed under the light of a full moon. When the sun does not rise on the appointed hour… This must mean that it could only be used, when the night is longer than normal. Like right now!”

From within the shadow realm, Brex was giving a devilish smirk, because he was the one who added that extra page in the book, soon after meeting Lily after checking in for the room. Leaning away from the window, he was able to look down and saw the shadowy form of Nightmare Moon and it was apparently shifting around erratically before it zoomed off towards the Everfree forest. As soon as she was long gone, he had to hold a hand up to his mask as he tried to contain his laughter.

That was when he heard Rory. “Master, do you think this is really going to work? It's not like she's going to give up on the Elements of Harmony. She already knows that they are a serious threat and she will go after them. What is the point of even adding that extra information in the book anyway?”

Brex then replied by saying, “Ha-Ha, it’s quite simple. The forest in this world, has monsters in it that would no doubt try to get in these girl’s path. I'm just making sure that Nightmare Moon is distracted. And at the same time, she and I can have a little one on one chat.”

Knowing her ego. She will most likely assume that her little traps are going to stop these girls, or at least delay them. This will give her plenty of time to go searching for this new threat. Nothing scares a villain more than the unknown messing up their plots. She's going to be under the assumption that she knows exactly where the Elements of Harmony are and how long it would take these mare’s to get to it.”

“So, after hearing about how Celestia had a counter measure put in place. She would instantly come to the conclusion that a second force would be heading towards it right now. Of course, not having an exact location in mind. She's gonna spend more time trying to find it. Which means that's going to be her top priority, because she can always zoom back to the castle when she feels like she needs to.”

Rory hummed for a few seconds before she began to speak. “And I take it that my Master is going to be the one that meets up with her, out in the middle of nowhere. She's going to be really pissed off when she finds out that she's been tricked.” Brex chuckled to this before saying, “I know, I know. Because I really want her to get angry. Well, I better get going. Can't be late for my little date.” Near the end, his internal voice was beginning to have a slight edge to it.


*Point of view: Twilight Sparkle*
*Time: Twenty minutes later*
*Location: Entrance to the Everfree forest*

Upon getting all of the relevant information. Twilight made sure that Spike was safely tucked away in bed, before grabbing all of her things and heading towards the forest. What she hadn't counted on. Was that the rest of the ponies that were in the library, had already left to collect their own gear and were already awaiting her arrival. But just as she got there, she caught the conversation between Applejack and Rainbow Dash.

“Thanks for going over to the farm and grabbing mah gear for me, Rainbow. Would have takin me too long to get there and back, especially with how dark things are.” The Pegasus ended up puffing out her chest in acknowledgement for the praise. Rainbow Dash then said, “forget about it. But are you sure you should be using all that? Out of all of us, you're the only one that never went to a combat school.”

This ended up getting a cold glare pointed directly at the Pegasus, when Applejack replied while holding onto a hefty axe in both of her hands. “Rainbow... I've been working on a farm and holding an axe for as long as I can stand on my two hoofs. I don't need to go to any fancy schools to be able to swing this baby around.” Seeing the way that Applejack was looking at her, caused the blue Pegasus to back off while flapping her wings and giving a nervous chuckle, before turning towards the forest

Twilight quickly spoke up loud enough for them all to hear. “Girls, you really shouldn't be here. I could take care of this all by myself.” Of course, as soon as she had said those words. The others began to give their reasons as to why she shouldn't be going in all alone. Starting with Applejack as she said, “Sugar cube, I know you mean well. But you can't go in there without another pony with you and there aint no way that I'm going to just let a friend go in there by themselves.”

Rarity was the next one to chime in. “I dare say it would be quite unladylike to stand idly by while such a catastrophe was to occur and not lend a helping hand.” Pinkie pie was the next to come up while holding on to Fluttershy. Pinky Pie was appearing to be excited. The yellow Pegasus however, was trying to wiggle free as her eyes were clearly locked onto her cottage that was only a short distance away and giving off a small, scared whimper.

“Yeah! let's go get that mean old meanie. Isn't that right Fluttershy?” That was when there was a loud, “Eep!” From the Pegasus before she reluctantly replied in a near whisper. “I... I uh. I think we'll be… OK if we stick together... If, that's OK with all of you...”

The yellow Pegasus was immediately released as pinkie pie jumped in place and ran closer to the entrance. When she got there, she began to point at it enthusiastically while screaming far too loud than what was needed for how far away all the rest were. “Come on, let's go already! I got a box of muffins that need to be delivered before they go stale!!”

Now scrunching her muzzle in confusion. Twilight turned towards the other ponies while giving them a, “Care to explain to me what she's talking about”, look. To which, only got her mixed reactions, consisting of shaking of their heads, shrugs or a type of apologetic smile, with just a hint of a wince behind it. Once that was taken care of the six started making their way into the woods.

But as they went in. Twilight couldn’t help but to take note on just what class they all were. This was based on the gear that she could see. She herself as a Thaumaturge. She wore a set of robes and carried a tall staff, with a purple jewel that was affixed onto the top and held in place with some gold-colored bands.

When it came to Rarity. That one had taken her a moment to figure out. This was due to how she wasn’t wearing any red. But instead, she had on a white and purple mix and had on her right belt hip, the rapier weapon that are used by the Red Mage class.

As for Applejack, she wore some gear that had a mix of cloth and metal bits. There was also a large, one-sided axe that was hanging off of her back. She was sure that this was something that the Marauder class would be using. However, she was sure that she had heard mention that Applejack had not attended any of the fighting schools.

Now as for the one called Rainbow Dash. She had on some light weight clothing and a set of short daggers on either side of her waist. Judging from that, then Twilight assumed that she was the rogue of this party. She would, without a doubt, be able to handle some high-speed attacks with the mix of Rogue skills and that flying of hers.

For the party mare of the group. Pinkie Pie was dressed in a similar level of protective clothing as Rainbow Dash. But there were no weapons that she could see. However, she did catch for a brief instant, the sight of an arrow pouch on her back. She just didn’t know where the bow was. So, by going off of deductive reasoning, then Pinkie Pie must have been an Archer.

For the last of the group. There was the yellow Pegasus by the name of, Fluttershy. She had on some robes that looked slightly different to her own. As for the weapon. She had this one book attached to her by a holster. If Twilight had to guess. Then she must have been an Arcanist. The one class that could branch off later on as both a damage dealer and a healer. But judging from the mare’s personality. It was most likely that she would focus more on being a healer.


*Point of view: Brex Mith*
*Location: Rambling rock Ridge. On the other side of the Everfree forest*
*Time: Nearly an hour after the girls entered the forest*

Right now, Brex was sitting on top of one of the tallest pieces of stone littering the wide-open area known as, Rumbling Rock Ridge. Which also coincidentally was where Rarity was, upon receiving her cutie mark. Where there were jagged spires of rock spread about and was widely known to be a good source of naturally occurring gemstones.

While still using a combination of hiding and staying in the shadow realm, Brex had been swinging his legs as he laid his hand onto his right arm, that was being propped up by its elbow. All the while, with a very dull expression behind his mask as his free hand was tapping on his other knee. He had just then released another board sigh for the umpteenth time. That was when he started to say to himself in a whisper, “Just how long is it gonna take for that woman to show up? It's a very big location and It's not that hard to find the center. Maybe I should have added a small map?”

He was just about to feel the coming, of another sigh, when he began to send something entering his detection range. Whatever it was, it was coming in from high above and apparently from the southwest by the feel of it too. It didn’t take long until he managed to pick it up as a fast moving red dot on his mini map. Soon after, which confirmed its altitude with how there was an arrow pointing upwards right next to it. That was when he started to grumble to himself, “And I thought girls were the ones who came early to a date? Oh, hold on. I guess that would be reversed here.”

When he had just finished with that thought, a black blur, with a dark glittering blue trail of light had just landed quite a distance away with a loud bang as it collided with the ground. This had caused quite a number of the nearby rock formations to come crumbling down and added to the cloud of dirt that was shot into the air by such an act. But the time it had all cleared away, Brex was finally able to catch sight of Nightmare Moon, who is just standing there on her hoofs. While turning her head quickly, as to get a gauge on her current location.

Using this opportunity, along with the great vantage point that he was currently sitting on. He brought up Nightmare Moon’s Information. From there he got the usual.

Name Nightmare Moon.

Age: 1,219 years old.

Level: 60.

Race: Alicorn.

Gender: Female.

Class: Great Sword Master.

Weapons specialty: Great sword.

Titles: Lunar Princess, Black Shadow of the battlefield, Princess of Dreams, Mare in the Moon. Lost Princess and-.

Brex saw all of this and thought to himself while reading. “To think that my skill for this has evolved to where I could even see their age when I look. Well, at least now I know that they haven't been around forever and they were probably only in charge for about two-hundred years or so, before they had that falling out. Hmmm... But this last bit here at the end of the titles section...
She also seems to have a De-buff on her right now that says that a good portion of her strength has been diverted somewhere else. One guess as to where it's all going."

That was when he called out to Rory with the mental connection. “Rory, looks like we may have to change things up a little bit with our plans. Skip plan “A”. We're going right over to plan “B”. Right now.” This got him a reply of, “Of course, Master.” Before the connection wet silent.

As soon as Nightmare Moon had been able to get a good look around, Brex could hear a disgruntled scream of annoyance as she released a powerful spell in some random direction due to frustration. From there, it struck another rock formation, reducing it to nothing but small pieces of debris after a violent explosion. This was also followed with her screaming the following.

“Where is it? Where could she have hidden it? We know that we heard right; it has to be here! Leave it to her to find something else out there that could possibly do us harm. What could it possibly be? Nothing is stronger than the Elements of the Harmony! The tomb is meant to show itself on this night. that is what the little mare said. There is no way that any pony has got to it in such a short amount of time! Ghraahhhh!”

There was yet another powerful blast sent at the ground nearby, where Brex was currently hiding, which nearly blew him off with the concussive force that was radiating with pure magic. Just because he was in the Shadow Realm it didn't mean that he was untouchable when it came to pure magic and Brex was really feeling it.

Feeling that it was a good time as any to start his little play. The Roegadyn slipped out of the Shadow Realm after falling off the edge of the high spot he was perched on and re-enter the shadows just as his body was about to make contact with the side of the pillar of rock during the fall. From there, he popped out of the ground a short way away and immediately switched over to his, Dark Knight Class that had not seen use in quite some time.

Now clad in his dark and foreboding armor, along with his massively long sword, that was taller than himself when including the handle. He slowly began to make his way over to the clearly frustrated, self-proclaimed ruler of the night. As soon as he had gotten within a hundred meters of her, did she finally notice his presence. When she did, she straightened herself up and calmed down as to clearly show that she was in control.

Nightmare Moon then called out, using what he considered to be a slightly downgraded version of the royal voice. “Just who are thee? Were thou sent for that infernal artifact?” There was a moment of silence before Brex ended up chuckling from behind his helmet after hearing the question. But thanks to the gear covering his head, the laugh came out eerily and hollow at the same time. In a way, it was on par with hearing a voice from the darkness. “Haah-Hahaha. Haaaaa-Haaaa. Hahhaaaaahaaaa~.”

Afterwards, Brex reached behind his head using his right arm and gripped onto the handle of his great sword. The weapon was then pulled off of his back and swung to his right side while fully extended. From there, he turned his helmet in the same direction. Nightmare Moon had clearly thought that he was about to attack as she called forth her own two-handed blade. But seeing that he was making no movements, she looked in the general direction of where he was gesturing towards and her eyes went wide at what she saw.

At the end of the clearing. About two hundred meters away, was a rock wall that had a carving edged into it, that was depicting what could have been none other than, Princess Celestia. But upon seeing it, Nightmare Moon did not get angry. Instead, Brex distinctly heard her giving a loud snort of laughter, which she had to quickly cover up by looking away from it and back at him. The reason that Nightmare Moon had done such a thing, was because the drawing was very detailed with the head and there was a exaggerated set of oversized mustache on the sun princesses face.

Brex could see her lowering her weapon, but still keeping her guard up while eyeing him suspiciously from afar as she spoke in her regal voice. “We know not of who thou are. Although, from what we see, it is quite promising that thou are not with her. Now answer us this, who are thee and why are thou here?”

Instead of giving her a verbal reply, the Roegadyn approached her slowly, as he rested his large weapon over his right shoulder. At first, the mare was unbothered by the approach. But as he got closer, she was visibly put on edge with how the grip on her weapon was getting tighter as the fingers coiled around the handle, as soon as he had gotten within several meters of her due to the silence.


*Point of view: Third Person*
*Location: The other side*

(Here is a picture of the place now.)

Instead of the usual sea of gold and a large table sitting in the middle of it all. There was instead, a replica of the house that was meant for the characters, known as the Simpsons. There was even the small background music that came from the opening intro of the show. But after about thirty seconds of it playing. A very grumpy voice, that clearly came from an older gentleman, could be heard screaming from within the building. “Why did I ever let you talk me into installing that horrible song when you ask me to build this place?! It’s been playing non-stop for the last five days!!!!!”

Afterwards, there was a pair of laughter coming from a duo, that clearly came from a set of children. One of which, broke off and spoke in a condescending tone. “Don't have a cow, Man!” As soon as the little boy's voice ended, it was then proceeded by another. Which belong to a small girl. “Now, now! We had a diplomatic vote on what venue we were going to have our little viewing party on what's happening over there today.”

This was quickly followed with banter going back and forth between the elderly man's voice and young boy. “It's just that... We all look so differently from one another. Also, all the bright colors here are doing no good for this body's eyes. I think I'm developing what the mortals call, a headache!” “Don't look at me, Man! It wasn't me who went with someone with a bald head!” “Bald head?! I am not completely bald! Besides, this coming from a kid where I can't even tell the difference between your hair and your skin. If you're going to call another person bald, then you should look at a mirror! Your head looks like somebody took an oversized meat tenderizing hammer and hit you far too hard over the head with it!”

Afterwards, there was a chorus of crashing sounds as the entire structure began to rattle. After a few minutes of this, the kid could be heard screaming at the top of his lungs after making some type of triumphant laugh. “Ha-ha-ha! Eat my shorts!” But before anything else could be said. The young kid began to let out a gurgled cry, before two figures came crashing out of the front window and onto the fabricated lawn. This showed it to be a tall man that got to his feet and he was currently holding on to a yellow character with spiky hair being choked in his massive hands.

(Here is a picture of the man and the kids.)

After several more seconds of trying to choke the smaller cartoon character, without it apparently really doing much harm. Another voice came from inside the building that belonged to the small girl earlier. This one sticking their head halfway out of the window and showing that they must have had some type of connection to the one being strangled with how their hair was in the shape of an oddly formed starfish. “Hey! Enough playing around you two. Get back in here! It's about to start! Don't make me call Uncle to break you both up!”

Once that was said. The two that were outside, instantly froze and the pose that they were in upon hearing it. While turning their heads in the others direction and without so much as moving even a muscle aside from their eyes. They looked towards one another slowly and blinked only a couple of times before the one who still had their neck in a vice like grip manage to wheeze out a barely intelligible sentence. “I don't... know about you... But I rather like this body. Truce?” This in turn the got reply of, “Truce.” From the larger man, who then released his grip. As a result, the kid fell to the ground with a heavy thud, while rubbing at his neck.

The small boy then said, “You know, to be able to do that to this character. You really should have gone with picking the dad.” This only elicited an aggravated grown from the other guy as he covered his eyes with his right hand as he replied. “I know that we're all related already. But thinking like that just makes my head hurt.”

He then snapped his fingers and produced within his hand, a set of sunglasses and place them over his eyes. When he did this, he released a content sigh of relief. Only a moment later, could they all hear a fourth voice, screaming out in old man's voice. “Who took my sunglasses?! Don't make me pull out a, Ka-Me-Ha-Me-Ha, and shove it up your ass!!!” This ended up getting a loud laugh from the kid as he said, “That's awesome!”

The girl who was looking out of the window, started to shake her head with her eyes closed as if she was over the antics of what she was watching. However, before she pulled her head back in, she called out to the two outside again. “You'd better be on your best behavior when Mom gets here. You know how she can get. She won't even give you a warning about calling Uncle.”

For some strange reason, this caused the pair to go extremely pale. The once yellow that was all over the cartoonist character child, had turned to a deep gray at the mention of Mother calling the one known as Uncle. As for the older guy. He was now sweating bullets and appeared to be on the verge of throwing up from the anxiety that he was now showing.

As soon as they had both gone inside. All the damages that could be seen from the lawn were instantly fixed when all the pieces flew back in place and mended themselves in the same way that rewinding time would have done. But once that was finished, there was the sound of some other individual approaching the house slowly, as a shadow was beginning to show itself and coming onto the lawn.
