Author's Note

This is a short one and introduces a enemy to the mix. Lets hope Isaac can protect this world.

Red Reaper

My body felt like hammered shit. With all this power at my fingertips, I can still feel like shit and tired as fuck. I was awake but could feel the sun in my eyes. The sun is my enemy always there to wake me up and ruin a good dream and sleep in. That was when I realized that I was laying in a bed and not on the cold hard floor of stone. I decided to open my eyes but not before turning to face away from the light. I was not in the mood to have them burn as soon as they open. With that said, as I did open them I noticed several things. One of the massive amounts of gifts was on the hospital table to the right of me where I was facing. The second was the Hospital part as I must have been out for a while. That confused me as my regeneration only takes a few minutes of sleep. Then again I only have many two hours of sleep as there are plenty of universes to save. Of course, there are the ones that are worth saving. The ones that are too far gone the ones that are made to be consumed by the very darkness they are made out of. I suddenly snap one of my thoughts as the door to my hospital room sung open as the main 6 and the princesses.

"Yeah, everyone!" I say right before I was then hugged to all hell. The main six where the calibrates of the mountain hug, all seem to be worried about me. Pinkie main was flat for only a second before returning to its cotton candy look. Twilight was hugging me as tight as Pinkie. That I will chock up to me being stabbed in front of her. Being dismembered is also something that might make them worry about me. The hug was then dispatched and I looked over to see luna hiding behind her sister trying not to be seen by me. I stood and that was when the main 6 looked in shock and worry as again I have knocked the fuck out. That was when Fluttershy rushed to me and began to look me over making sure that I was ok to walk. "Fluttershy I'm fine, it's going to take a lot more than that to take me down," I say and she seems to shy away and hide behind applejack.

"I understand that you were out for some time, back I would like to ask some questions if you don't mind." Celestia's voice was firm and had to tone the said. 'Let's focus on this now' I was honestly wondering if she was another one that did not trust me. But a quick look at her face was enough for those thoughts to go away. She looked at me with a genuine smile and it has been centuries since I have seen one.

"Ask away I have all the time in the world." Her smile never hindered and mine was growing on my face as this is one of the most peaceful worlds out here. The first question was by twilight and it was interesting, to say the least.

"Are you some kind of undead or immortal like Celestia?" That was a first, sure I have been called undead but no one walks up to me and asks with the utmost curiosity 'Are you undead?' I tried not to laugh as that was one of the weirdest questions I was asked. The key word there being tried as I snickered and all saw and heard it. I quickly acted as if I knew twilight would ask why I was laughing.

"Sorry, The undead part got me as that's a first for the many questions." Twilight nodded and wrote down something on her notepad. " No I am not undead but I am immortal. Well, a special kind of immortal." Their eyebrows rose from that statement and I knew they wanted to know more. "No, I will not elaborate further, next question." That seems to make luna pop her head out to stare at Celestia to look at me with confusion. The question I got from the rest was normal, to say the least. Twilight asked what I ate as she noticed the canine teeth I have. My response was to say that I don't need to eat but can eat any kind of food.

After an hour had passed I could see the sun lower into the evening. That was when I had a very good question to ask.

"Celestia, how long have I been out for?" She looked at me and with a smile gave an answer that made my blood run cold.

"You have been out for a month Isaac." I stared wide-eyed and shaking. This seems to catch the attention of all who were around me.

"Isaac, are you okay?" I heard Twilight ask to the right of me. But I didn't answer instead I stood and called all my belongings to me. getting dressed in just a matter of seconds I ran past Celestia and luna and out of the hospital room. I knew I have been out for a while, but a month is a too much time here. There is no way of telling what has changed just by my being here. And not to mention the kind of attention this brings to my location, I need to get out of here and fast. Attempting to open a portal here will only bring harm to the ponies to follow. So that is not an option, not now at least I need to get out of here. That was when I heard hoove steps behind me. I did not need to look back to see who it was and it was only focusing on getting out. That was when rainbow dash flew above and in front to stop me. Thinking fast I called to the speed force and using it I ran around her and zoomed out of the hospital.

I noticed I was in ponyville, both good and bad. Good in the sense that I could get out of here easier than canterlot. Bad in the sense that there are still ponies that could get hurt if he shows up. Right then and there a Red portal was only a few feet from me. I was too late to get out of the town as it opened right in the middle of it. I stopped and looked at it with a glare as I knew who was going to step through. Steel toe boots clanged and the stone as he finally found me after many years of avoiding him. Stepping out I saw the Red Reaper.

Rain bow POV

The blur of Isaac zoomed rounded me and I could see it run out of the hospital. What I didn't understand was why he just got up and left. He s hiding something and I do not like what it is. Quickly flying after Isaac I could hear the other catch up behind me. Until they grew distant, flying into the air as soon as I was out I looked for Isaac. That was when I saw a weird-looking portal in the middle of town and Isaac standing there. That was when another like Isaac step out. He looked way cooler than Isaac, with a red hood over his mask or something, and wearing what looked like a white jacket, brown pants, and shoes like Isaac. Flying down to get a better look I saw a weird symbol on its chest. It look like a dragon skull which was also red. Finally landing next to Isaac I saw what his mask or face looked like and it looked like a silver skull scratched onto a red back grown. That was when it turned to me then back at Isaac, and before I knew it my ears were ringing and I was suddenly sitting down on the floor.

Isaac's POV 5 minutes earlier

"So this is where you been all this time." I heard the familiar voice call out to me under that red helmet. The scratched skull on it seems to mimic me. I use my mask to strike fear into those who dare to hurt innocents. He uses it to strike fear into those who stand in his way and his employer.

"I knew it was only a matter of time before you found me, brother," I say to him his skull-edged helmet looking around at where we are. That was where one of the worst timing to ever happen in my lifetime. Rainbow dash landed right next to me and looked at Red Reaper with wonder. He turned to her then back to me and before I could say anything he pulled out duel-wield pistols. Using the speed force I was able to pick up rainbow and take her several blocks away from him. Running back to take the fight somewhere else I was suddenly tripped by something.

"Ha! Predictable as usual Isaac. You need to learn new tricks." I heard Red say as I looked at my tangled legs. That was when I realized that the metal around my legs was a razor wire. Fazing through the metal was easy, trying to stand with a cut where my leg was once there. But that was solved in only a matter of seconds as the blood that leaked out turned to smoke and restored itself.

"Come on then I ready! How about you!?" I say tackling Red into an open portal I threw up. But I knew it was not that easy as he closed it before we went through. Feeling him bash my back with his pistols I knew that I had to get him out of this world. Calling on all the strength that I could think of I then planted my feet and threw Red toward the everfree forest. While he was still in the air I flew to him. He was expecting that as he began to fire his pistols landing every shot. Luckily my skin was known as hard a metal. Raising a fist to hit him further for the ponies I threw it, landing right on target. If it was aiming for an open palm as Red had stopped it while flying as well. I knew this was going to be hard but I had forgotten how bad it was. flying as fast as we could we threw more punches at each other, making shock waves with each contact with the body.

"Come on Isaac you can do better than that!!" I heard him say as he threw a right hook straight to the face. I returned the favor with a stomach punch which seem to finally do something. If only for a few seconds and that was when I realized that this is getting nowhere so I did the only real choice. Flying as fast as I could I then opened a portal and flew straight into it, not closing it behind me. I know he will follow me I just hope whatever world I come across is a dead one if not I hope there is someone that can stop him. I could but I can't bring myself to hurt him.
