Alright, I'm back with my groceries, got my apples, hard cider, sweets, and other foods... Oh yeah and I managed to get lots of Ink for the quill. Now where was I? Ah right, the meeting with the fanciest pony of the town. After Twilight got her hair done accidentally by the living crash course Rainbow Dash, we went to the carousel boutique because Spike's next on the list is decorations, had to leave my pal outside though, no dogs allowed. "Decorations... haaaaah beauuutiful." The little drake said while looking at something that wasn't in twilight's vision. "Yes, the décor is coming along nicely, this will be quick I'll be at the library in no time. Beautiful indeed." Looking in the direction Spike was peering, I had to say my bit. "I don't think spike was talking about the décor Twilight." I pointed her in the direction of the fashionista of the town, Rarity Belle. Yeah I know it isn't cannon but I think she legally added her last name to fit with her sister and relate to her more so fuck off... Ooh and my appraisal just came back, but I'd rather save that for later. Rarity was, by definition, a true vision of elegance and grace, her curves were balanced and perfect, her speech was a delight and impeccable, though her mannerisms...

"(Sigh) No, no, not the right color- Oh goodness no!" Aiyah! I mean she's a solid ten, but I just hate snooty attitudes! I could knock her down a peg so that she could be a bit more pleasant, but first I need to snap Spike back to reality. "Uh... Spike, she's too old for you." I didn't want to shoot the poor guy down but he had to face the truth before he got hurt worse. Though I do feel bad when he looked downcast so I'll need to help the poor guy find a gal his age later. "Don't worry, plenty of other dragons in the sky. Ahem, excuse us, miss!" Rarity turns a little as she was concentrating on the ribbons. "Just a moment please, I'm in the zone as it were... Oh yes, sparkling ribbons always does the trick does it not? Why Rarity you are a talent. Now, how can I help you- WHAHAHAAAHAA!" The state of Twi's fro startles her into making her tail straightening out for a brief second. I swear these ponies break the laws of physics by the second

"Oh my stars darling! Whatever happen to your cheveux faire!" Yep she speaks French, another kind of girl I like would be bilingual. You can just imagine all sorts of things she's capable of with a tongue like that- Whoa now! Don't get too excited, can't afford to break character. After that nanosecond of thought, Twi spoke up. "Oh, you mean my mane? It's a bit of a long story. I just came by to check on the decorations and then I'll be out of your hair." Rarity naturally replied with such worry in her voice. Out of my hair? but what about your hair? Oh non non non, we must fix zis disaster immediately! She began to nudge Twi to the hair stylist part of the boutique. "Wait w-what are you doing!? HELP!" "Sorry Twi, if the lady say your hair needs fixing it's best not to argue." I saw spike trying to sneak on them before I grabbed his tail. "Ah tut tut tut! No spike, adult's only." He was about to protest but I gave him the evil eye and he backed down. (Don't worry it wasn't a cursed eye, I'm not that mean.) I just gave him a stack of cards and had him play solitaire.

"OOOH! Your hooves are cold!" Aaaaand insert nosebleed. Perhaps it would be safer if you had your super hearing turned off master. You just received minor psychic damage. Very funny sage. Spike naturally noticed that I was bleeding through the nose. "You doing okay dude?" I simply waved it off. "It's fine little buddy, I just got too excited." I joined him in playing solitaire as he is new at it, teaching him the basics of the cards. Heh, it's probably his dragon heritage but he certainly picked it up easily. After a few minutes, Twi came out of the room with her mane fixed up, before she nudged Spike and I out to the door. "Quick, let's get out of here before she decides to dye my coat a new color!" "Do come on by again darling, I would like to get to know your charming companion!" I tipped my hat to her. "Jack Daniels madam, I'm hoping to see you again as well!" We left in a hurry and Spike was being his usual self. "Sigh, she was wonderful."

"Focus Casanova. What's next on the list?" Casanova exists in this world? The little lovesick drake took a sec but he managed to hit his reset button. "Ahem, music is the last part. And it's directed by a somepony named Fluttershy." I looked to my friend. "Well you heard him Jingo, get to smelling." Without hesitation, he got his nose to the ground and started tracking. Before long we started to hear music coming from... Birds? Had to be fucking birds? We came around the corner and happened upon a music rehearsal with a yellow Pegasus, though I didn't exactly pay attention as my view was on something else. (Mental wolf whistle.) Who does that fine ass belong to? Focus my lord. Right, got it, sorry! I focused and luckily I didn't miss the introduction, but Twi had to be a little bit loud. "Hello!" It scared the chorus the poor pegasus probably had to work hard to assemble. "Oops, I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to frighten your birds, I'm just here to check up on the music and it sounded beautiful." Fluttershy landed next to her and said nothing, true to her name, she is awfully shy.

Que the awkward silence which would make the most of introverts nervous... Or even a purple librarian pony smile awkwardly. Ahem, I'm Twilight sparkle, are you Fluttershy by chance? "Y-Yes." She was stepping back a bit as she was getting a bit anxious. Twi was about to press the matter further but I just had to step in. "Twi, I think she's the type of pony that doesn't like loud conversations. Let me." I stepped forward a bit before talking softly. "Sorry about that, she's new to talking to ponies she doesn't know. Was the one singing off tempo a blue jay bird?" She smiled shyly before speaking. "Why, yes it is. You certainly know your songbirds. I smiled back at her. "Hehe, I try. Twi and I are merely touring the town while checking the official stuff. Would you like to join?" For some reason she blushed a bit. "Oh umm... I-I can't right now good sir, we still need to rehearse the songs. Maybe sometime later." I gave a polite bow before doing a little tease. "Very well, it's a date. Keep up the good work." I then left her blushing before she shoved past me as she saw spike. "GASP, A baby dragon!?" "WAH, OOF!"

"Aww, I never seen a baby dragon before, he's so CUTE!" Right, I forgot she was a baby dragon fanatic. She was gushing over the little drake, especially over the fact that he can talk. "Well guess we got a tour companion." Spike then proceeded to talk her ear off about his entire autobiography, all, the, way, to the treehouse library. "And that's the story of my life. Except for counting today." Twilight spoke up. "We're here, my how time flies. Better get the little drake to sleep." "What but I'm not- OOF!" The little drake "Tripped and fell" because he eepy, as Twi called it. Naturally Fluttershy wanted to help out with putting the baby drake to bed but Twi turned her down. Course I also had to put my conversation. "Hey, what about my pay?" She looked at me with a bit of confusion. "I thought you said you were joking." I smirked a bit. "I'm making sure that you were paying attention. Here's a tip, if things go belly up, be sure to follow the book's index at the letter E." And with that I walked away, feeling satisfied that I gave a vague clue that she will most definitely will remember with her photographic memory. "So Flutters, have any recommendation on feed for Jingo here? He's half t- err Wolf, half wolf."

She takes a look at Jingo before smiling and petting his head, puppers was definitely enjoying that. "I suggest you give him prime meat every other week, keep him exercised, and give him lots of love and affection. Here, I recommend this pony to buy dog food from." She gives me a card and I tucked it into my own hammerspace. "Thanks, I will. Maybe later we can talk dragons. I'll see you later." I waved goodbye to her before we separated. "Well Jingo, got a favorite pony?" I like the yellow and light pink one master, she knows what a wolf needs. "I agree. Still I like Twi, she has that no nonsense vibe when in fact she is rather silly herself. Rather a cute librarian tsundere." I chuckled to myself as I got time to kill before the big party. But I'm sure yall don't like me wasting time with words so I'll shorten it. Went to the cupcake store to grab some eats, went around town to take in the sights, and certainly had some fun with nostalgia and comparing everything to how it was in the show. By the way, there is more females than there are males so it's definitely a female supremacy in this world. When it came time for the party, I arrived fashionably early... Okay call me impatient, I just wanted to make sure things started off right.

One by one, ponies gathered into the main town hall, even Pinky the ever optimistic pink pony came by early before she grabbed my hoof and shake it. "Hi! I'm Pinky Pie and am I ever glad to meet you! Sorry if I didn't throw you a party or get you a cake as I didn't know your birthday, but I'll be sure to get you a one with a loooot of candles. If she shakes me any harder with that earth pony strength of hers she is gonna cause me to jiggle like a jell-o! I had to pry my hoof out of her grip and shook off the dizziness. "jow- Ahem, How do you do miss? Name's Jack Daniels, I'm from out of town. Thought I could settle down here away from the city and start a business but I guess I need to get a job to start it off." I looked around the place. "Sure is packing in, huh?"

"Well of course, it wouldn't be a summer sun celebration if we don't get to watch the princess raise the sun! But of course nothing can top running into you guys!" The birds did their fanfare to quiet down the ponies so that the mayor can speak. "Fillies and Gentlecolts, as Mayor of Ponyville it is my pleasure to announce the beginning of the summer sun celebration." As the ponies cheered I looked out to the window I saw that the stars were aligning over to the moon. Ooh sssshit! Master, the seal is about to break! I FUCKING NOTICED! I slipped out of sight and went Inferknight mode while sticking to the shadows. And just as the big unveiling of the princess with the curtains and everything, there was no princess. She's here. I see that Pinky was looking for me but I remained invisible in the shadows as the ponies were on the brink of panic. Sorry Pinky, can't draw attention to myself The air got colder and the platform started to swirl with dark magic before it revealed the princess of darkness, night, and the moon. "Nightmare Moon."

"Oh my precious subjects, it's been so long since i've seen your little sun loving faces." Gods damn, I did not missed the venom filled voice but her bod on the other hand was really doing it for me. "What did you do with our princess!" The tomboy Rainbow Dash tried to charge at the dark princess but thankfully AJ was there to hold her back. "Whoa nelly! Don't go charging in halfcocked!" The dark princess chuckled. "Muhuhueheheheh, Why, am I not royal enough for you? Don't you know who I am?" Pinky was about to speak but her open mouth was stuffed by a cupcake. "Does my crown no longer count now that I have been imprisoned for a thousand years? Did you not recall the legends, did you not see the signs-?" "I did!" Her monologue was interrupted by the lovely library pony Twi. "And I know who you are. You're the mare in the moon, Nightmare Moon." Everyone gasped at the proclamation.

"Well well well, somepony remembers me. Then you know exactly why I am here." Twi gulped at the thought. Y-You're here to... To... (Gulp!) "Hmhhmhm, remember this day little ponies, for it will be your last. From this moment on, the night, will last, FOREVER! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA!" I couldn't stand by any longer, to hell with the timeline, I'm the only demon lord around here and princess emo moon butt was encroaching on My territory! "I think you're getting too far ahead of yourself!" I appeared in a puff of crimson smoke right in front of her so that I can at least be between her and the scared ponies. "YOU!? It cannot be!" The ponies were a little shocked that a winged bicorn has appeared, guess they can't handle something that is so awesome and equally as terrifying popping up. "It would take more than thousand years to put me in the ground, Nightmare. I already claim dibs on this world and I won't have you breaking it."

"Tch! I do not have the time to deal with you demon lord of the Everfree, your end will come soon enough!" And with that last world, she vaporized and slithered out of the town hall like a snake made of a starry cloud and RD gave chase after her though I knew she would not get very far. Twilight approached me and tried to make sense of what I am. Who... Who are you? I thought Bicorns were extinct. I just gave a shrug. "Some things are exaggerated. You can call me Jack Inferknight. I have to take my leave, my forest may be in danger." I started to walk out. "W-Wait! She called you a demon lord, just who's side are you on?" I gave a smirk as I made my exit. "I'm on my own side, that's how a demon lord works. And at the moment pretty unicorn, you are on mine." With that last cheesy yet awesome line, I turned into crimson smoke before making my way out, passing by a confused Rainbow pegasus. I then called out to my loyal companion, who was hiding on my orders. Jingo, come! we must get back to the fortress!" On your command master! I see him transforming back before running back to the forest. I knew this day would come, I just didn't expect to feel her murderous intent to be so strong.

Need to stop here, gotta have a coffee break.


Author's Note

Finally got my mojo back, after months of tireless work.

:raritywink: You certainly took your time.

I... I didn't procrastinate if that's what you're insinuating. There was just so much to do on the farm.
