The Arrival

''Map! Open a portal! Quickly!'' A man on a horse yelled as he was getting away from his death. Looking back over his shoulder he saw a giant lizard like creature chasing him. ''I shouldn't wake that thing up!''

Turning his head forward, he saw his eagle friend disappearing in a purple flash. As the shining energy spread out in a circle, a portal appeared in front of him with the same purple color. Wasting no time, he patted his horse to run faster.
The horse did as it was instructed and quickened his speed.

They reached the black and purple hole and the portal disappeared. Leaving a giant, hungry and really pissed lizard stomping on the ground, where it's dinner supposed to be.

It reared up and screamed angrily. Stomping down it's huge claws, it turned around and went back to it's home... without food of course...

____________________________________________________________________________________________________

A bright green field with flowers. A beautiful sigh. So clean and relaxing.
The sun was burning and making that day even brighter. Around that field, trees blocked the view, but the sun's light went trough the leaves, making the forest bright inside too.

A pair of birds landed on a tree branch. Singing merrily to the oh so nice day, the two sat there. They had all the time in the world. So easy life, no trouble.

Then out of nowhere, a portal opened in the middle of that field. The two bird flew away as the purple and black portal grew larger and out stepped a running horse. On it's back, a hooded man sat and held into the horse's strap.

He took some deep breath, while the portal disappeared behind him. His grey furred horse kept his green, glowing eyes fixed on nothing. But as it's head looked forward, we could say it gazed forward.

''Alright!'' Spoke up the man and looked around. He saw the nice field with colorful flowers and the trees around him. He totally ruined the peace of that moment.

He took some deep breath, smelling the fresh air and the scent of the flowers. ''There are plants there, apples on the trees and I can smell. That means this new world have oxygen...'' He looked up at the sun shining at his dark form. ''It has light too. So that means, I have to find shelter before night falls.''

After he finished with his note to self, he raised his hand and it started glowing. A soundless magical explosion happened inside his hand and with a flash of purple light, an eagle appeared and landed on his wrist.

''Map, have a look around!'' The man told the eagle and it did as he said. The eagle named 'Map' flew up high and flew to random directions. It's owner watched for a second than pulled twice on the strap. His horse started walking slowly, following the eagle wherever it went.

The man started looking around again. ''What else do we have here?'' He thought. ''I saw a few birds in the forest. So there IS life- I mean animals in this land or planet... More like a planet, or gravity wouldn't hold me down to the ground...'' He spotted a long wall of rock to the left and some mountain far away. ''Okay... this is not just a plain planet. Hills, mountains, fields, forests can be found here. Hm... that means water can be found here too. And I can see a few clouds up above..''

And sure enough, he saw some massive clouds above him. ''A bit thick for that small size.'' He commented, but shrugged it off and continued riding on his horse. That's when his eagle returned. It flew in front of him and turned into a scroll. The man grabbed the scroll in mid air and rolled out. It was an unfinished map. It showed the hills, mountains, lakes, rivers and forests nearby. Only a small area was revealed, the rest of it was blank paper.

''Go, look for something in the sky!'' The man said and the eagle flew off.

After a few moments, the horseman heard his eagle shriek and he looked up. The eagle few slightly lower and in another purple flash, it disappeared. As the purple energy disappeared, it revealed a castle built on the side of a mountain.

''A castle!'' Exclaimed the man. ''Alright! Our first destination is that castle. Go Sprint!'' And the horse started running fast or sprinting if we stick to it's name. It's mane and tail glowed in green flames. The hooves left a trail of flaming, green hoofsteps and then they died out, leaving only huge hoof marks in the ground. Even if it did looked scary, it was still breathtaking to watch a horse like that.

The man held tight into the straps with one hand and he casted a spell with the other. Another scroll appeared in his hand in a purple aura and his eagle stopped glowing in that same purple aura. He watched as the map revealed more than last time. He saw as the edges of the discovered places expand. Whenever the eagle's vision caught sign of a hill, field or lake, the map shoved the same thing in a mini version.

His eagle shrieked once again. As it disappeared like last time, behind the purple flash of light, a town could be seen. A small town with houses. Made from hay, wood and stone. But what our horseman found exiting was: ''Sentients...''

He pulled the strap to the right. ''Sprint! Let's see what we can find in that town.'' The horse neighed and turned slightly right, heading to the towns direction. The man looked at his map while the eagle reveled more things for him and making them visible on the paper.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

The horseman jumped off his horse as it was still sprinting. Aiming his flaming green hand at the horse, it disappeared in the ground, like those machines in the water. ''How did the humans called them? Submarie? No! Sub... sub... submachine?'' He wondered and kept walking towards the town.

He found a dirt road that led to the town. So he followed it, map in his hands. He looked over the road and saw the town in the distance. From time to time, he glanced down at his map. His paper revealed details about this new land. A good amount of the paper already shoved mountains, forests and that little town too. The paper was nearly full, but that did not bothered the hooded traveler. ''This land must be huge. The paper is nearly full. Looks like I need to make this smaller...'' And he did that. The already revealed parts of this land became smaller so the paper now had a lot of space again. ''There we go.''

He didn't wanted to use his horse for this little walk. He spent most of the time sitting on his horse so his legs needed a little stretch. Besides... ''I should just walk in. What if they never seen a flaming horse, they will probably freak out at the sign of a big and scary horse.'' As he said that, the talisman on his legs gloved for a second and he heard his horse neighing. ''Don't worry Sprint. After I confronted them you can come out. Rest for now!''

He was closer to the town, so he called to his eagle. ''Map!'' It flew down to him and disappeared. The mens eyes started glowing in purple and his vision became more better. He closed one eye and like a binocular, he could make out forms in the town.

''Quadrupeds? Finally a more friendly looking race. Maybe they wouldn't be that scared from Sprint after all.'' He chuckled and continued walking. He examined the town a bit more. ''Multicolored horses. I wonder how they built houses like this. The decoration looks similar to the ones I saw in the humans world and at my first visited world. Oh I never forget-... I forgot how is that world called....'' He chuckled at himself and kept looking at the town. ''An ordinary day. Looks peaceful and they seem friendly. Looks like it's going to be easier than I-...''

He was cut off as he heard a loud explosion from his left. He looked at the direction and saw a wave of rainbow going across the land. It went trough the man and he felt a nice feeling from it. And he couldn't help but smile at this. ''How could those shadows be scared from rainbows. So deadly creatures and they don't like this? Next time I go there, I use the power of warm rainbows...'' He laughed at the silly thought and used the eagle's eye to see what caused that explosion.

''Are these explosions normal in that world? Or that's how they fight? With rainbows...'' He mused and saw a black dot approaching him fast. Too fast. It left a trail of rainbow and he saw a pair of magenta eyes. Those eyes showed panic as they filled the vision of the man. He dismissed the eagle's eyes and saw the thing only a few feet away from him

Still going too fast...

''OH NOT AGAIN!'' He screamed and the thing crashed into him.

While he and that rainbow thing rolled a few feet, he thought. ''Maybe this place is dangerous...''

Soooo here we are. The first chapter. And the first story that I write in third person. It feels different writing like this. I got used to the 'I' s and 'My' s. But if I would write this one in first person, you would think I'm really egoistical... what am I saying. Of course you already know that. But what can i say? I can't find the middle way between pumping my ego or be shy. Pleasedon'thurtme! *MEP*

Also, this fic will be more difficult. I just wanted this beginning out of my head, but then I ran out of ideas. So expect chapters coming out slowly.

That's it for now, I hope you enjoyed, leave a comment about the character and please... please don't complain about marie sue things. I still can't understand what is ACTUALLY means. 'Oh! Another overpowered OC from you? Thumbs down! MUHHAHHAA!' No, just please no thumbs down for overpowered OC. And just saying, in this fic... it's hard to say, but... I actually did not make the flank kicker character like in Dhuradhan In Equestria. That story is my main project for the summer and-... oh wait. I'm talking about something else. Well that's it for now.
Good bye!

First Encounter

''Ugh! My head...'' Thought Rainbow Dash as her head hurt. ''What happened?'' Asked herself and as an answer, she heard a deep voice grunting below her. ''Oh! I think I crashed into somepony.''

She lifted her still throbbing head and started to apologize. ''Ugh... Sorry. I guess I over did it...''

Her eyes were still closed and she heard the deep voice again and some kind of cracking sound. ''Uff! I think I broke something...'' Rainbow Dash felt that somepony shifting under her and he spoke up again. ''... nope. Just a branch...''

Raising a hoof to her head, she massaged the spot where she felt her forehead hurt. Not finding any visible scar there she opened her eyes. ''Sorry again. I didn't see you-...'' She couldn't finish her sentence.

Rainbow Dash found herself not on a stallion, but on a strange creature. The creature wore some dark clothing that Dash couldn't recognize. The only thing that she had a slight knowledge was the creatures hood, that blocked out the sun and making it's mysterious face darker.
A long, ragged scarf was around it's, that had some dirt on it. But the red color was still visible on it.
The creature was tossing away a broken branch and rainbow couldn't help, but notice some kind of gauntlet on it's claw. She only saw gauntlets, when she and her friends went to save Rarity from the diamond dogs. But that creature had a strange mark on it. It was like something is looking back at her, from that predator like mark. And she could swore that she saw two blue eyes flashing at her.

Taken aback from the blue flash, she looked down at the creature. The strange being shoved an expression, that told Rainbow Dash it was examining her. She stood up on top of him (it has a deep voice, so she assumed it's a 'him') and yelped as the creature grabbed her by shoulder and pushed her down from him.

''What the hay?!'' Rainbow Dash trembled for a second, but thanks to her wings she became airborne and looked a bit angry at the creature. ''What was that for?!'' She said angrily and saw the creature standing up.

It stood on it's two hind legs like a dragon, but it had strange claws. They weren't sharp as she remembered from 'The Great Dragon Migration'.
It wore boots. Rainbow never seen any other creature that wore boots. Expect ponies.
Now the creature stood tall. Tall enough to reach Rainbow Dash and she flew a bit higher. Rainbow Dash got a better view at him. He wore a black robe, that reached his knees. The robe from the front parted in a 'V' letter, revealing a shining part on the blue belt. She could see some pouches attached to that belt, but she wasn't sure. The robe covered those brown pouches, so she couldn't see them.

The creature dusted himself off and as he moved, Rainbow spotted something on his shoulders. It looked like an egg cut half and placed on his shoulder. Under those 'half eggs', something grey sticked out.

''Are those... fur?'' Rainbow Dash mused, but quickly shook her head to forgot that idea.
She moved her eyes under those 'eggs' and saw brown straps moving across it's chest in an 'X' shape.

''To answer your question... you kinda restrained me to breath. That's why I tossed you off of me.'' He spoke again in it's deep voice. That mysterious face was enough to give Rainbow dash the creeps, but with that strange body and oh so dark tone...

''Am I... scared?'' She thought. Than again, she shook her head to forgot that silly thought. ''Hehhe... good joke. Me? Rainbow Dash? Scared? Pff... I'm not scared from that freak. I can deal with it.'' Convincing herself to fight back, she finally spoke up. But then...

''By the way! Are you alright? You went pretty fast back there...'' Rainbow Dash was taken aback. The strange being shoved concern towards her. Even if it was her fault crashing into him...

''Y-yeah...'' She answered simply. Then she collected herself. ''Not to be rude, but-...''

''Who am I?'' The creature cut herself in.

''No. What ARE YOU?!'' Rainbow was a bit upset that somepony just interrupted her. And she finally asked the BIG question.

''I'm unknown spirit.'' He simply answered.

''Unknown spirit?'' Rainbow Dash looked at him skeptically.

''Yes.'' He answered simply... again.

Rainbow wasn't satisfied with the answer, but shrugged and decided to change the subject. ''Aaaand... what are you doing here?''

He brightened up a bit, as he finally got back to his business. ''I'm discovering this land. I was about to go to that little town there when I saw an explosion.'' He explained.

''Oh yeah. That was me trying out a new trick... but I think you know how it ended...'' She rubbed the back of her head sheepishly. ''And that town there is Ponyville...'' She pointed a hoof at the town.

The man turned to the town and took a few steps forward. Then he raised his left hand and it was covered in purple flames. Rainbow Dash looked at it in awe and as a small explosion could be seen in the flames, an eagle appeared with the same purple flames. The eagle's wings were burning in those flames and it's eyes were glowing in purple.

The eagle landed on the mans wrist, screeched at it's owner. ''Map! Show me the scroll!'' He said to the eagle and as the purple flames and gloving died out, a scroll appeared in front of the man. He grabbed it and looked at the map.
Curiosity got the better out of Rainbow Dash and she flew closer, behind the man. She saw him moving his finger trough point, where the map shoved a small town. Rainbow recognized the town and before she could say it's name, letter appeared above the town. The man pulled away his fingers and let all the letters to appear in a purple aura. Then when the letters all appeared and became visible, they changed to black, like it was written with ink.

''Wow...'' Rainbow exclaimed as she saw the word 'Ponyville' nicely wrote down on the paper.

''I get you never seen something like this before?'' Asked the man as he rolled up the paper and let his right arm fell next to him, still holding the scroll.

''No... my friend Twilight would love to see something like that.'' Explained Rainbow Dash and then she remembered something. But then again...

''What's your name by the way?'' He asked her.

''I was just about to ask the same question from him! He's getting more weirder...'' Thought Rainbow Dash, bit taken aback as he was faster than her. This did not helped Rainbow the stay cool...

''You must think I'm weird.'' He stated, totally sending Rainbow Dash to insanity.

''What the hay?! Can you read my mind or what?!'' She cried out failing her hooves in the air in defeat.

''No, I just know what all of you think. You, who meets me the first time. I just got used to that and know what will be the next overused question...'' He explained in a bored tone. He really sounded like he had enough of those always asked questions.

''Okay, I thought you can read my mind, because you would-...'' She shoved her hoof into her mouth, before she say something.

''I know what you wanted to say. And if we're here at this topic, than let me tell you something...'' He paused and looked seriously at her. ''... if you don't like others to see your mind, then you should never go to that one single dimension... brugh...'' He shivered slightly from those memories. ''I swear. Alternate universes are really weird.''

Rainbow was confused. She wanted to ask about what he said, but decided to better not question the crazy man. She learned that from Pinkie Pie...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

I think you all know what it feels when you just stays quiet. But not because you don't want to disturb your partner, no. Because you CAN'T disturb him.

Rainbow Dash and the man walked in an awkward silence down the road. The man didn't said anything and just looked forward, focusing on the town. Rainbow Dash had enough looking at his back, so she flew next to him and looked at his face. She gasped as she saw his eyes glowing in a purple aura. One of his eyes shut tight and he was in deep thoughts.

''What are you doing?'' She asked him, confused about his strange behavior.

''I'm examining the town. I want to know if it's a safe place and get them know better from far away...'' He said and he became more focused on the town. Even a vain appeared on his temple.

''Why don't you ask me?'' She asked him, somewhat disgusted about the way he wanted to know the town better. It was like a colt admiring the mare's back side, so he can feel himself better. Freaks...

As her question rang trough his ears, he dismissed the purple aura and looked at her with wide eyes. ''Hm... that's a really good idea. Please continue!'' He said and summoned his scroll, turned it around and looked at the fully blank side of the scroll. No mountains, rivers or anything. just a blank page.

Rainbow hesitated a bit, but continued. ''So... the town is peaceful. I don't know why you think it's dangerous...''

''A skittles crashed into me a few minutes ago. What do you think I will expect from a town, full of multicolored ponies?'' He asked sarcastically.

''What is 'skittles'?'' She asked, shoving the most confused face, that she ever gave him since they met.

''Nevermind!'' He quickly said. ''Tell me about this WHOLE place!'' He said, motioning with his hand to their surroundings.

''You don't know what this land is called?'' She asked dumbfounded. He shook his head and kept looking at her. ''Equestria...'' She simply answered.

''This world? Or is this just a nation? Country?'' He asked. ''You know what? How big is that... 'Equestria'?'' He added.

''Well...'' Rainbow collected all her memories from school, then she remembered. ''Equestria is this WHOLE world...'' She motioned with her hoof, like he did. ''... but a lot of years ago, other species made new nations. Like, the griffons moved to the North, because they couldn't leave together with the ponies. Later, they became the Griffon Empire.''

The man moved his fingers trough the paper. Letters started to form, where his finger made contact. Then just like last time, the purple letters turned into black letters and formed notes. It said:
World name: Equestria
Species: Ponies, Griffons

''Can you tell me more species?'' He asked.

Rainbow agreed and told him more species. He 'wrote' them down on the paper and he added some information for each species. Where they live, how they look like. He would write more, if Rainbow Dash would be the egghead, not Twilight.

Thinking about the lavender mare... ''Hey! I can bring you to Twilight! She's my friend in the town. She can give you more info if you want.'' She informed him.

He stopped 'writing' down these notes. ''Then our new destination is the twilight...'' He said out loud.

''No! Not THE Twilight. She... Twilight. She's a unicorn. Not the sun's final minutes...'' She giggled at the thought, of Twilight Sparkle being the twilight...

''I know... I just wanted to lighten the mood. You already looking at me strangely...'' He told her and they continued to walk down the road.

Rainbow Dash looked at him confused, then she started grinning and finally... ''Bwaaahhhaaahh! Haahhhaahhaa!'' She broke down to laughter.

The man called to her back, as he kept walking. ''If you calmed down, try to catch up!''

He kept walking down the road. Looking down at his notes and back at the town. Then he flipped his scroll around and looked at his map. Nothing changed, except one thing. On the top of the map, there was a word.

''Equestria...'' He whispered. ''Maybe I found the perfect place to stay?'' He mused. ''Let's not think like this. I shouldn't judge this fast. I just have to find that female and find out some things about this place!''

The sound of wings flapping trough the air told the man who's coming. ''Calmed down?'' He glanced at her smiling.

''Hehhehe... you sure know what I was thinking. hehhe... that was good.'' She still giggled at the memory.

''I know your friends name already, but yours is still a mystery...'' he said, looking forward.

''I'm Rainbow Dash! Fastest flyer in all of Equestria!'' She said, puffing out her chest and doing an epic pose.

''Fastest flyer?'' He asked.

The next thing she knows, is the man's right hand started to burn in green flames. He quickened his pace, until it became a running. Then a horse emerged from the ground. It's mane glowing in green flames and left big, flaming hoofsteps. It neighed and the man jumped into the air, landing on his horse.

Rainbow Dash watched in awe, as the big pony carried his owner towards Ponyville... faster than she flew. ''Oh... it's... on...''
With those last words, she started flying faster, catching up with him.

She flew next to him and looked at the HUGE pony. ''Who is this pony?!'' She shouted trough the air.

''His name is Sprint and he's a horse!'' The man shouted the answer to her.

She was a bit confused, why is a horse let a strange being riding on him. A quick thought ran trough her. ''They both males... and one is riding the other one. That means...'' She shook her head... yes... again. Blushing and giggling a bit, she quickly forgot the dirty idea.

''What is YOUR name?!'' She asked him.

The spirit turned towards her...

''Traveler...''

Writing this chapter as our hero wrote on his scroll... writingception? I think that's what it's called...
Anyways! I realized how many of you favorited my story. So now, I have to satisfy more than four reader. It's really exiting.
Here is the second chapter, I wrote it just today... under... four hours?! Wow... I hope I made just a few grammar mistake.

And now i take my leave. Luna is out there, waiting to report my day to her... I just made a reference with my own story... LOL. that one is so silly! XD
Check out my other story... if you want to know what I meant there hmhmhmhahhahhAHAHHAA! I'm so terrible.
have a nice day or good night!

She is the Twilight...

Just a quick note:
Me and my class went on a tour to my city's hills and mountains. (Funny how I mention mountains and hills even in a note. Hehhe..) And I thought: ''Hay! I can think about some ideas and finally go on an epic adventure!''
So I grabbed two huge branch from the ground, used a pocket knife to make them sharp and climbed, walked and descended 20 km. While my class mates tried to survive the long trip, me in my full climbing gear(camouflage mask, brown winter hat, green hoodie, black trousers, climbing shoes, bike gloves and a backpack containing water and sandwiches... plus cigarette) zoned out. Needles to say... I somehow got separated from the group... yep.
Now, me being a gamer and big survival, I said: ''What would The Traveler do now?''
Saying out loud 'Map! Show me the way!' I quickly realized I have no unnatural eagle and not even a map was with me. So I chose to go to another kind of big adventure and after half a hour, found my group. Teacher doesn't even realized where was I and not even my classmates knew I was lost for a long time.
What we learned today: BRING A BUCKING MAP WITH YOU OR YOU DIE IN THE WILD LIFE!

True story...
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

The lavender mare, Twilight Sparkle, peacefully read a book on her couch. The librarian closed her door, due to the setting sun. Outside the citizens were packing their supplies, so they don't have to do it dark and they can go home while they can see the road.

As Twilight read her book, which was probably the thousandth one or even the millionth one, she let herself fully focus on her reading. Spike, her little dragon assistant was at her friend, 'helping her' making new clothes. Twilight doesn't found any harm to let the number one assistant spend some time with his little crush.

Chuckling at the thought of the two making clothes, while Spike drooling all over the floor by just looking at Rarity amused the cute egghead. Then she focused on her magic to flip to another page and continued reading.

Little did she know that her other friend, Rainbow Dash was bringing her a more exiting thing than her book...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Outside the library, a somewhat tired Rainbow Dash tried to catch her breath, before her opponent catches up with her.
The sound of loud hoofsteps from behind, was an alarm to her. Quickly crossing her forehooves like this little trip was a piece of cupcake, she greeted her competitor.

''I told you... I'm the fastest flyer in all of Equestria.'' She said, proudly puffing out her chest as a winner.

''Was that a race?'' Asked Traveler in a somewhat confused tone.

But Rainbow Dash knew he was just teasing her. His ride wasn't even tired and he looked well rested. That annoyed the speester. ''Oh shut up!''

She flew closer to the library door and knocked three times. It was unusual for her. Most of the time she simply flew inside with an impressive stunt... and most of the time she made a mess under the process. Knocking on the door was new, uncool and boring for her.

''Fine. You won. Happy?'' Teased the horseman, who dismissed his horse and for the first time, Rainbow Dash witnessed dismounting in spirit style.

As an answer, Rainbow sticked out her tongue and grinned at him. ''He is a good guy. Sprint, I mean. I never saw a pony... well, sprinting like this. It's a pity that he's mute.''

''Horses not supposed to talk. Neither ponies. But it seems this world is different.'' Said the now horseless horseman and started to think about something.

''Why? He's like a big pony. He HAS to talk. Are ponies in other dimensions are mute? How can they just don't tal-... You know what? I don't care. You already confuses me...'' Rainbow Dash gave up. This all thing was just too much for her.

''What kind of school did you learned when you were younger?'' Sounded the question from Traveler as he raised an eyebrow.

''I was at flight school. There I learned how to be the best flyer. And that's where I got my cutie mark too.'' She shoved him the mark on her flank.

But the man just kept staring at her eyes and he looked like someone, who realized something. ''Now I understand...'' He said out loud.

Rainbow turned to him, not shoving her rump anymore. ''What do you mean?'' She asked and gave him a raised eyebrow.

''Oh nothing.'' Quickly answered the man and kept his blank stare at her. ''Featherbrain...''

Giving one last look at the man, she turned to the library door as it started to open. The sound of door unlocking, drawn the gaze of the man to the doorknob. ''Doorknob + hooves = My thousand years old brain starts to melt from the lack of logic and physics...''

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Is that Rainbow Dash? What is she doing here? And who is that stallion with her?'' Twilight asked herself. She wasn't like Rainbow Dash, so her first thought wasn't that 'wild' about Rainbow coming to her library with a stallion...

She heard no more talking outside, so she unlocked her door and opened it...

''Hy Twi! Can you help to our strange quest here?'' Rainbow greeted her friend and pointed at the tall man next to her.

''Hello Rainbow! Of course. What can I help... you...'' She couldn't finish her sentence.

Twilight at first saw the creature's lower part and she kept her gaze at there. But before Rainbow can make a joke about 'Twilight's first time seeing a males private area' she moved her eyes slowly upwards. Going trough the creature's chest and trying to name his clothing and gear, then finally meeting his face, Twilight wanted to shut the door immediately.
His hazel eyes looked back to her and they sent a small shiver trough Twilight's spine. His blank expression was dark, because of his hood and the most noticeable thing was...

... he was a kind of creature that she never seen or heard before.

This unknown creature for her was a mystery... and what Twilight have no knowledge about, is totally scary for her.

''Hello librarian! I'm looking for some information about this land. Can you help me with that?'' Asked the now 'not-so-scary' creature from her. His tone was normal, like an average stallion. This helped Twilight to calm down a bit.

''Y-yes. S-sure...'' She looked at Rainbow Dash, who was on the edge of laughing. ''Uhm... just a moment please!'' And with that, she grabbed Rainbow Dash with her magic and pulled her inside. Shutting the door close... in the creature's face.

But the man paid no mind for that strange event, except one... ''Magic... a new thing to get more information about...'' And he wrote that down on his scroll...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Rainbow Dash landed with a *thud* on the wooden floor in the library. She immediately became airborne and spoke up. ''Hey! What is wrong with you Twi?!'' She tried to ask this in a 'hurt' tone, but she was still grinning at Twilight. She knew that her friend is going to freak out.

''What is wrong with YOU!?'' Twilight pointed a hoof at her friend. ''You brought here a monster just to scare me? Rainbow, you gone too far with this prank!'' Twilight was upset. Not just about the creature, but about her friend's dangerous prank. And of course, she didn't wanted to tell her friend how scared she was...

''It's not a prank Twi!'' Defended herself Rainbow Dash. ''I found him outside Ponyville and he needed help! And who is better at giving infos than you!''

Her friend's nice compliment calmed Twilight down, but she was still upset about this... thing. ''But you don't even know what is that! You should told that thing to stay out of the town, THEN find me so I can do something with it! It can be dangerous...''

''First, it's a HE. Second, he doesn't even hurt me when I crashed into him after a sonic rainboom!'' Said Rainbow Dash, trying to convince her friend about this situation.

''You did WHAT?!'' Cried out Twilight. ''You crashed into that thing than bring him here. Rainbow, maybe he wants to take revenge for that and *gasp* MAYBE HE'S GOING TO HURT PONYVILLE!''

And with that said, she bolted out of the door. She expected total destruction outside, but she instead found a...

''Something's wrong?'' Asked a confused Traveler, who was busy scratching his eagle's head.

Rainbow flew outside and chuckled. ''Yeah Twilight. Hehhe... that's totally hurting the ponies...''

Twilight was dumbfounded. She even beat Rainbow Dash with that face today. So let me give Twilight the lead at 'The most confused/dumbfounded face today' list. And I even give her that list, so she can double check it it's right or not...

While the Traveler continued to pet his eagle, Twilight leaned closer to Rainbow. ''Okay, maybe I over reacted bit...'' She received an odd look from her friend. '' alright, alright, I absolutely over reacted this. But that thi-... I mean HE is so strange. I don't even know what he is.''

''Then try to find out. You've done researches before. Maybe you can became famous by getting some information about him. And that's what he needs too...'' Reasoned Rainbow Dash.

Twilight looked at 'him' one last time, than agreed with her friend. ''Alright. I just had to... clean. Yes, I had to clean the library first. Now we can go inside.'' She said and walked back to the library, with Rainbow behind her.

The Traveler looked at his eagle. ''Thank you Map. Maybe that pegasus isn't that stupid after all.'' Then his eagle got back his flaming, purple wings and glowing eyes. At the same time, a faint glow disappeared from the man's ears and he could no longer hear that well...

He started walking into the open library, where he could finally gather some useful information...

Informations

Just a quick note:
Imagine me, walking in circles in my room and on my terrace pacing back and fort. It would be a normal thing. Now imagine me doing these, while I talk to the ponies, like I'm The Traveler. That is totally weird.
Thankfully the neighbours haven't noticed the smoking teenager talking to himself. And thankfully, I only had one awkward moment, when my brother walked into my room and heard me.
That's how I write a story in a nutshell...

''So what do you need?'' Asked Rainbow Dash, actually eager to know what this being wants.

''I'll answer with a question. Can you tell me the basic thing about this world? I want to know what is the difference between a normal pony, a pegasus and an unicorn. Also, I want to see a world map. That's all you can help me with for now. I will read the rest from books...'' Said the man.

Twilight sat down on a couch and Rainbow kept hovering in the air, as the man stood in the middle of the library. Twilight motioned for him to sit down and he found no reason to stand there, so he sat down on another couch.

''Well first off, it's not 'normal pony'. They called 'earth ponies'. The difference between the three is that earth ponies are stronger, better at planting and harvesting crops and other food and they can't use magic like a unicorn. They have passive magical abilities.'' Explained Twilight.

And there, she saw the still unknown creature, summoning his scroll, flipping around and moving his fore limbs over the paper.
''What are you doing?'' Asked Twilight.

''Oh yeah. I forgot to tell you Twi. He has that magical map and he always writes something down. And it has the same color like yours Twi. Maybe you two are kinfolks...'' Said Rainbow Dash, who met with an odd look from Twilight. ''What?''

''Well... that's impossible. As I remember, I had no predecessors when I appeared in a world...'' Explained Traveler, as he finished writing down the new information.

''You have no family?!'' Exclaimed Twilight. ''Then how did you even born?''

''Not born... appeared. But I thought you give me informations. Not the opposite...'' Traveler just looked at them with a raised eyebrow.

''Traveler! Not cool. We don't know anything about you. It's not fair!'' Said an upset Rainbow Dash.

''Rainbow!'' Twilight narrowed her eyes at her friend.

''What? It's not fair! He kept acting like I'm invisible!'' Retorted Rainbow.

Before the girls start an argument, Traveler spoke up. ''She's right...'' Twilight wanted to say 'what?!', but he held up a finger. ''No! Don't say that. It's getting old.'' He saw Twilight sink back into the couch and he continued. ''She is absolutely right. I did not shared some things about myself. And now I know I can trust you enough to tell YOU some information.'' He explained.

Rainbow looked at Twilight with a face like 'I told you...' and Twilight accepted her defeat. Traveler waited for a few seconds to make sure they're listening. ''So! I'm going to ask something. You give me the information that I need. And then you two can ask something from me and I give YOU the information. Mutual information sharing...''

The girls nodded after a quick glance at each other and Rainbow landed on the couch. ''Alright, so-...''

''Hey!'' Interrupted Rainbow. ''You already asked a question. It's our turn.'' She demanded.

''Go on then.'' The man said and got comfortable on the couch. Even if it was too small.

''Yeah! Hm...'' Rainbow thought about what to ask. ''Why is that other ponies can't talk in other worlds?''

''Because ponies and horses are animals there. As you can see, the quadrupeds here are sentients. You can talk, think and dream. Animals can't do that. Clear?'' He finished the explanation and Rainbow Dash nodded.

''Now, what can a pegasus do?'' He asked.

''Pegasi can fly DUH!'' Spoke up Rainbow Dash, who found this question silly.

''Pegasus ponies can fly obviously. They control the weather, thanks to their passive magical abilities, they can make contact with the clouds. Their job to make a sunny day, or rainy night. They can also make thunders, tornados, emptying a rain cloud from water and move faster than other kind of ponies.'' And again, Twilight explained, which was embarrassing for Rainbow Dash, because she was the pegasus, not Twilight.

Traveler moved his fingers trough the paper and that caused Twilight to come up with her question. ''What kind of claws you have? I never seen such claws...'' She mused.

''Because these are not claws Miss Sparkle.'' Explained Traveler and he saw Twilight pulling out a notebook, quill and a feather to write down this new discovery.

''Than what? I don't even know why are you wearing those half cut eggshells on your shoulders...'' Spoke up Rainbow Dash.

''These are hands. If my nails would be long, they would be still just hands. Even if I could cut trough wood, with one swipe. And these are not eggshells. They called shoulder plates. They serve to protect me from smaller hits. They part of my light armor, so if I got hit, by something... or someone...'' He looked at Rainbow, who smiled sheepishly. ''... then it wouldn't hurt that much.'' After he explained this, Twilight finished writing down what he said and looked at him, waiting for him to ask something.

''Now tell me about the unicorns!''

Twilight expected this question and she wanted to start a long description about how magic flows trough the unicorns body, then leaves trough the horn. How clever are they and all that unimportant stuff.

But Rainbow was faster... and she wanted to look awesome, for knowing actually SOMETHING. ''Unicorns can use magic in their own way. Levitation, teleportation and all that stuff. They weaker than other ponies, but smarter. That's why Twilight lives in this library.'' She finished and closed her eyes to look even more awesome.

Traveler looked at Twilight for help. He wasn't sure if that's the correct information. He prefered to ask the little unicorn, who actually nodded in defeat. Twilight found unnecessary to start rambling about this topic.

After Traveler 'wrote' down this new information, changing the way how Rainbow described the unicorns of course, and Rainbow asked her question. ''What the hay are you?!''

''That's another way to ask that...'' he commented, loud enough, so she can hear it. ''And I already told you that one. I'm a spirit.''

Twilight decided to help her friend out. ''Every spirit resembles some kind of creature, or specie. What kind of specie are you?''

''I'm a humanoid. Humanoids are creatures, who walks on two legs, have hands or claws, have a homo-sapiens sapiens like face, can think, dream, feel.'' He explained.

''So... a dragon is a humanoid?'' Twilight asked, breaking the rules of this 'mutual information sharing' game.

''No. The dragon surely can walk on two legs, have claws, can think, dream and feel, but they have no homo-sapiens sapiens features. They have snouts, not nose.'' He corrected her. ''And before you ask, homo-sapiens sapiens features are like mine, you see.'' He added.

''My anatomy is a human's anatomy. My bones are exactly like theirs. AND before you ask, human's are the latest generation from the homo-sapiens family. They anatomy changed under million years, but I can't remember what they called... I think I answered your question, here comes mine...''

Twilight looked up at him as she finished taking notes. ''I want to know about this lands history. Can you tell me some kind of short-version-history-lesson?''

And Twilight just did that. She only told him a little bit more than he needed, but he kept those small things in mind. She told him about the three tribes, before Equestria was made. She talked about the princesses, Nightmare Moon, Discord's chaotic plans, the changelings and filled him with the recent events. Traveler was taking notes, Twilight gladly explaining and Rainbow Dash... she was bored, then left.

The two information hungry souls were too busy, to notice the pegasus's flying out of the window and they just kept throwing questions and answers at each other.

''So there is a fourth kind of pony. Alicorns... what can they do?'' Asked Traveler.

''Well... there are only three alicorns. Princess Celestia, my mentor. Princess Luna, my and my friends new friend. Princess Mia More Cadenza, The Crystal Empire's ruler and my brothers wife. Princess Celestia is the Princess of the Sun, she raises the sun every day. While Princess Luna, the Princess of the Night, raises the moon every night. Princess Cadance is the Princess of the love. She rules over the crystal ponies.
So, alicorns are pretty powerful. Princess Celestia and Princess Luna are the co-rulers of Equestria and the Crystal Empire is ruled by Cadance. But I already said that. hehhe...'' Twilight finished with a giggle.

The man, on the other couch, 'wrote' it all down. One thing stuck in his mind however. ''Her brother married to the Princess of the Love... seems legit. Hm... looks like she's okay with that... fine.''

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

As much as Twilight wanted to ask more questions, Traveler wanted to see a map about Equestria. Disappointed, she brought a few one. Each map, was a little bit different. And not just because some of them looked cleaner than the other. Some of them were made a few years earlier and the rest were made recently.
Some of them were smaller maps, only about towns and smaller areas in Equestria.
Twilight also had a poorly draw map about the Griffin Kingdom. She said that ponies and griffons are not so friendly with each other. ''Hm... I don't know which one is the bad side. As much as I see these ponies friendly, maybe the griffons have their rights to be harsh with the ponies. I shall look after this conflict if I want to live in peace...''

Traveler thanked Twilight the maps and he went to work the magics. He placed the similar maps together, then looked at his map. He analyzed the maps. Scanning the differences on each drawings, he found some maps, that had the same drawing about forests and mountains.

So he found these similar maps the useful ones and he put the rest aside. Then he started searching for differences on those ones, which he kept. After half a hour searching, he put aside the ones, that not had the same things draw on them. So this left only two maps.

The two maps had a lot of similarities. But at the same time, they had a few difference. Like most of the two maps, shoved exactly the same thing. While some parts were missing...

''Twilight!'' He called to her, but no answer, only some small movement.

He turned around to see Twilight just waking up. She smiled at him sheepishly and rubbed her eyes. Seeing his information sharing parter listening to him, he continued. ''Why is there a forest, so near to this town, but the maps shows only blank paper at that part?'' He asked her.

Twilight immediately knew what was he talking about. ''The Everfree Forest. A really dangerous forest. Nopony goes into that forest. Predators lurking all day and night. That's why the papers are blank there.'' She explained somewhat sleepily.

''I'll keep that in mind to go there...'' If he just knew to not say that sentence...

''NO!'' Twilight shouted. ''You can't go there! It's too dangerous!''

''I'm not you're concern. Just go to sleep. I want to prepare for tomorrow. I'll have to find someone-... oh sorry, somepony, to repair my clothes. They're in a bad condition as you see.'' He started to walk to the front door. ''I'll be in front of your house...''

''What are you doing?'' Asked the dumbfounded Twilight, who found the spirit crazy. She couldn't imagine somepony or 'someone', to go to the Everfree Forest.

He looked back over his shoulder, before opening the door...

''I'm going to prepare...''

''Prepare'' He said.

''Prepare? How do you want to prepare for... whatever! It's the middle of the night Traveler. You should rest before you want to go anywhere, but not to the Everfree!'' Demanded Twilight.

''I'm going to prepare mentally and physically.'' Turned around Traveler. ''And if you haven't figured out yet, I have to find a place to sleep. That means, I can't sleep like you do.'' He explained.

Twilight couldn't imagine how he felt. Couldn't able to sleep? Sure, it sounded useful for Twilight if she want to stay up, studying all night and all day.
But as she thought about it even more, it actually sounded terrible. Not being able to dream... just awful.

''So that's why you're a spirit. Now I understand.'' She said.

''Hmm... I almost forgot...'' Said Traveler and walked back to the maps.

Twilight watched as he summoned his map, placed it next to the two incomplete maps and placed his hands on them. A purple aura surrounded the maps and it looked like the energy was flowing trough his body. From Twilight's maps, to his.

Twilight approached the table and saw his map showing the parts of Equestria, which he haven't seen yet. The blank areas on his map now shoved more towns, forests, mountains etc. Even the borders of Equestria appeared on it.

''You-...'' Twilight started.

''Copied the two on to my map? Yes.'' He finished.

Twilight wanted to know this spell, but remembered what he wanted to do. As he walked out the door, she came up with a good excuse.

''Wait! You said you want to repair your clothes. My friend happened to be one who makes cloths and dresses... and I know where she is.'' ''Spike is at Rarity. I bring him there, he gets his clothes and I can send a letter to the Princess. YES! That's it. Problem solved...'' She thought.

Traveler stopped. ''Hmm... I really need to repair my gear. Clever girl, now she thinks she can talk me down to not go there. Only if she knows what am I capable of.'' ''Fair enough. I will be outside, preparing and resting. We will meet in the morning.'' And with that, he went outside.

When the door closed, Twilight allowed herself a squee of victory and went to her bed.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Outside the library, Traveler summoned his horse. ''Lets rest for now Sprint!'' He said and the horse laid down next to the library door. The green flames died out and the horse closed it's eyes. Traveler sat down next to it and leaned against his horse's neck. He crossed his arms and let his head fall forward. Closing his eyes, he waited, pretending like he's asleep.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Twilight woke up tiredly. She couldn't sleep, because of her new, crazy guest. As she remembered about her guest, she quickly brushed her mane, washed herself and went outside. There she saw a HUGE pony, lying on the ground and his guest was leaning against him. (Twilight is a pony, so she knows who is a stallion or mare.)

She was loud enough to get Travelers attention. He stood up and looked at her. ''Sleep well?'' He asked with a smirk as he saw Twilight's bloodshot eyes. After he received a glare, he continued. ''When are we leaving?''

''I have to do a few things, so meanwhile, please stay here...'' She told him tiredly.

''Sprint!'' Traveler spoke up and his horse's glowing eyes opened.

Twilight gasped as the huge pony caught on green fire. She was about to help the poor thing, when he disappeared on the ground. She looked at the man, as he retreated his greenly flaming hands.

''Who was he?'' Gaped Twilight.

''He was Sprint. My horse. He's carrying me everywhere in the world and to worlds.'' He explained.

Poor Twilight wanted to know more, but she saw him laying his chest down on the ground. He placed his hands next to himself and pushed himself up. ''Now what are you doing?'' She asked.

''I told you I have to prepare. So I'm doing some exercises. I spent a few months riding on Spirit, so I'm out of shape.'' He explained. ''Now please, finish what you have to finish! I want to go soon.''

Twilight stood there for a second, then shrugged and went back inside.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Aaaaand... there. I'm done!'' Twilight levitated her 'to-do-list' and ticked 'self organizing'. She was too focused on her work, to notice the time.

''AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! A MONSTER!'' Came the screaming from outside.

Twilight knew what happened. ''Oh no! Oh no! Ohnoohnoohno!'' She looked at the time. ''Eight in the morning! NO! Ponyville woke up!'' She rushed outside. ''TRAVELER!'' She cried out as she stopped in front of the library.

''Looks like the citizens are awake...'' Stated Traveler, who pulled himself up on a branch and slowly descending down. He repeated the process a few times, then landed on the ground. He turned around to see a shocked Twilight.

''No, no, no, No, NO! This is not good. How could I forgot about the other ponies?!'' She started pacing around, trying to think about a solution.

''Can we go now? Let's just ignore them. It's not every day, you see a flaming horse.'' He pointed at Sprint, who stood at the side of the library... exactly where the screaming came from.

''They didn't see you?'' Asked Twilight.

''Nope.'' He simply answered.

Twilight sighed from relief and calmed down. ''Alright, then let's go. I'm done with my 'to-do list'.''

''Lead the way!'' He said and Sprint disappeared, like last time.

Twilight saw that. ''How did he do that?''

''I can summon him to ride somewhere else, or send him back to my talisman.'' He explained and pointed at his talisman on his right leg.

''And why does he let you ride on him?'' She asked him.

Traveler sighed and knew what's going to happen.

''Lets play mutual information sharing!''

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

T&T talked about their own adventures. Twilight told him about her friends and how they saved Equestria. Traveler told her about different universes, worlds and close death events.

''Then Map opened the portal and Sprint brought me trough it. I ended up in a field and had a look around and...'' He told her how he met Rainbow Dash too.

''I must say, you went trough a lot.'' Commented Twilight.

''Thousand years of traveling...'' He said.

On the road, Twilight couldn't help, but notice the watchful eyes of the citizens. She tried to hide her nervousness by talking with her guest. It helped a little, but she kept lowering and lowering her head to avoid eye contact.

And Traveler: ''You may be clever and plan everything, but now... you made this to yourself Twilight Sparkle. I won! ... If I can remember, the boys back at the human world, calls this 'trolling'. Well... I'm not a troll and I don't really understand why they call the clever ones 'trolls'. And again, this is the human for you.''

Finally, they arrived at the... ''Carousel Boutique... so she's a tailor. Good.'' Said Traveler.

''Well, yes. But she can make more things than just simply clothes. She had materials for a lot of things.'' Explained Twilight and she went to knock on the door.

*Knock, knock* ''Come in!'' Called a lady from inside.

The two walked inside. ''Okay. Rarity is my friend, I can calm her down before she-...''

But before Twilight could finish her thought...

''Twilight darling! How wonderful to see you and *GASP*.'' Rarity appeared behind a table and disappeared as she fainted.

Twilight facehoofed and Traveler just stared. ''Drama queen...''

''UGH! You've got to be kidding me!'' Exclaimed Twilight and went to help her friend.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Rarity woke up on a couch in her boutique. ''My... what happened?'' She whined.

''Finally, you're awake! I though you will stay like this for the whole day!'' Twilight appeared next to her.

''Oh! Twilight! Darling, you are not going to believe what I dreamed.'' She reached out and grabbed Twilight by the shoulders. ''Those clothes! They were awful! AWFUL!''

''I though you fainted because you freaked out because of him.'' She pointed her hoof at Traveler who was looking outside the window.

Rarity turned her head towards him and was about to faint when...

''Miss Rarity! I like your clothes, can you repair mine, before you faint?'' Asked Traveler and turned towards the two unicorn.

Rarity eyes fell on his clothes than just realized who... or more like what is talking to her. She took a deep breath and turned to her friend. ''Twilight? Mind telling me what is a diamond dog doing here?''

''He's not a diamond dog Rarity he is a... a...'' Twilight tried to remember.

''A humanoid spirit.'' Traveler helped her out.

''Yes, a human, or humanoid spirit. Whatever, he wants to repair his clothes.'' Twilight explained to her and looked around. ''Where is Spike? I need to send a letter to the Princess to...'' She looked back at Traveler who stood at the windows... out of earshot.

Twilight leaned closer to Rarity. ''To inform the Princess about Traveler. He's from another worlds and he wants to go to the Everfree Forest. He doesn't know how dangerous that place is.'' She whispered.

''Then why are you holding him back darling? If he wants to go then let him. Why do you care about it?'' Rarity whispered back.

''Miss Rarity has a point Twilight Sparkle!'' Traveler called back to them. A purple glow disappeared from his ears and he turned around. ''Didn't I tell you what I went trough? I appreciate your concern, but to send your Princess after me for that? Waste of time for you. I have all the time in the worlds.''

''But you want to find a peaceful place to sleep forever. The Everfree Forest is everything, but not peaceful.'' Twilight was still confused why he wanted to go there.

''Maybe you mistaken. The peaceful place can be an abandoned place too. Where no one disturbs me in my eternal slumber.'' He told her.

''But...''

''No darling!'' Rarity stopped her. ''Let him go and let me do my work for him.'' She got up from the couch and walked closer to him.

She looked over his dirty, torn apart and burnt clothes. ''*Yack* How can you walk around in these? They're everything, but fashionable.'' Said a disgusted Rarity.

''Traveling trough worlds is not the cleanest thing Miss Rarity. I always try to find a tailor and a blacksmith to repair my armor and cloths.'' He pulled of his hood and long, red scarf to reveal a long, dirty, black hair. It nearly reached his shoulders. ''Here, I need a thicker one. I always forgot about the cold nights.''

Then he pulled off the straps and another thing that has a string attached to both ends. It looked like a 'D', made from wood and one strong string. A backpack fell to the ground and he placed the 'D' object next to it. He unbuttoned his robe to reveal a green camouflage, long-sleeved shirt. Straps ran around his shoulder and brown pouches hang on those straps.
On his blue belt hang some more pouches and something else...

''Uhm... Traveler? Why do you have two big knife, some sharp claw like things on both sides and... that 'L' shaped thing on your belt?'' Asked Twilight fearfully. Rarity saw that too and backed away from him.

''To protect myself. I told you about my adventures, but I think I missed those parts where I had to defend myself. I use the daggers to cut out chunks from wood for arrows. I use the arrows for my bow to hunt and those claw like things are called simply 'claws'. Useful for combat and climbing. The 'L' shaped thing is a gun. I got it from the humans world, but I ran out of ammo. And I doubt you ponies have ammo shops where I can get some bullets for it.'' He blankly answered and continued dressing down.

The girls glanced at each other and back to him. He dropped his belt and got out from his brown trousers. It had a lot of holes and cuts and... blood. ''I want to get this blood out of it. Can you do something with these red marks? It makes a terrible smell and the animals can find me easier.'' He asked Rarity, who just nodded and watched with wide eyes as he threw the bloody trouser on the ground.

He pulled off the long-sleeved shirt and the girls saw a brown leather armor, covering his upper body. The body armor had shoulder plates too, but not that strong, like the one on the straps.
Elbow plates and knee pads on blue bandages, so it wont hurt his skin.
Wrists had some strange leather protection too. The upper side of the wrist plates had a thicker part, that he can use to bash enemies.
The gauntlets had a special hole, so he can attach his 'claws'.

After he dropped those armors to the ground, another long-sleeved shirt was there. It was thinner and had blue color. He gave it to Rarity too. She would gladly grab it with her magic, but the multiple cuts on his body caught her eyes and Twilight's.

He kicked his shoes to his backpack and thought for a moment. ''May I use the shovers or baths?'' He asked.

''Traveler, it's not that kind of place.'' Spoke up Twilight.

''Right this way!'' Said Rarity happily to help and led the spirit to the bath.

Traveler quickly went to his gear and grabbed a knife, before any one could see it.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Rarity led him to the bath tub. ''Make yourself at home, I'll make your clothes for you!'' She said and went to another room.

He dropped his boxer and climbed inside. ''Human underwear is much better...'' He thought and washed out his underwear. When he was satisfied with it's cleanness, he placed it at the edge of the tub.

It was so long, since he had a good bath. So he started washing himself.

Meanwhile Twilight asked Rarity. ''Where is Spike?''

''I sent him to get some materials for my NEWEST idea. It will be fabulous.'' She dramatically said and went back to work.

''Who were you so kind with him? Didn't you heard what he said... and how he said?'' Twilight asked her. She suddenly had a bad feeling about Traveler.

Rarity stopped and turned to her. ''I wanted to get rid of him Twilight. I don't want a dirty... thing, walking around in my boutique. Now, I'm just gonna make his clothes quickly and then he can finally go.''She turned back to the clothes. ''And you shouldn't force him back darling. In my opinion, I wouldn't mind, if he never comes back to us.''

''Now, I have work to do. Just keep calm and he will go.'' With that said, Rarity started repairing the clothes.

Twilight walked to Traveler's backpack and looked over what he had. She was still disturbed about what Traveler said. ''Hunt... what is he doing with these weapons? And those cuts... I have to send a letter to the Princess.''

So she sat down on the couch and waited...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

It was now a hour, since Rarity and Traveler went to their own business. Twilight sat on the couch, walked around the boutique, examined Travelers gear and checked on Rarity. And this went for a hour...

Then the door opened. ''Ah! Hy Twilight. Is there really an alien here?'' Asked the baby dragon, who carried a lot of cloths.

''How do you know that?'' She asked, somewhat surprised. ''Maybe all the town knows about him.''

''Rainbow Dash told me.'' Spike said and the cyan pegasus flew inside and nodded.

''Where is he now?'' Asked Rainbow.

''He's having a bath. I haven't checked on him since a hour.'' She explained and pointed at a door, at the back of the boutique.

''Then let's see how he is!'' Rainbow said and flew to the door, Spike and Twilight soon following her.

''I don't know Rainbow, maybe he wants to just relax. He went trough a lot.'' Spoke up Twilight quietly. She didn't want to mention the deadly weapons.

But she had to, because Rainbow asked what happened. She didn't wanted to hold that secret from her friends, so she told everything. Spike was interested, but Rainbow was surprised.

''You must admit Twilight, traveling can be dangerous. Of course he has weapons.'' Rainbow Dash protected him.

''Yes, but he told us those things like it's nothing. Maybe he lied to us all the time and wants to hurt everypony!'' She exclaimed.

''I get this first impression from others a lot. Why don't you come inside Miss Sparkle and share your thoughts with me?'' Called Traveler from the other room.

Twilight was shocked and to make it better, Rainbow pushed her inside. Spike followed them, eager to see an alien.
Rainbow stopped Twilight next to the bath and grinned at the two. Spike watched in awe as Traveler ears stopped glowing in that purple aura.

''I was just-...'' She started, but he interrupted.

''I do not care about your excuse. Now I can say 'I'm not evil' and all that worthless speech, but no. I can prove that. So think what you want, lean back and wait what is going to happen!'' He said seriously to them.

''Wait! What is going to happen?'' Asked Rainbow, before he grabbed her and pulled her down to the ground. ''What the hay are you doi-...'' She stopped speaking as he threw the knife over her, out of the room and hitting something.

They all jumped away from him. ''That's how you want to prove that you're peaceful?!'' Shouted Twilight, as her horn started to glow.

''I would think that trough, if I were you...'' He said and with that, climbed out the bath.

While Spike found nothing too interesting on him, Rainbow blushed and tried to look away and Twilight had a hard time focusing on her magic. ''Wh- where are you going?'' Twilight asked.

''Have a look!'' He called from the other room, where he threw the knife. It was the same room, where the entrance door was.

The three friend hesitated to follow him, but after sharing a quick glance with each other, they looked into the room.
What they saw terrified them...

Traveler pulled out the knife from a creature that looked like a dragon. It's spike's were dark blue, sharp claws and had the same face structure like Traveler's. Blood covered it's face and a huge hole on it's forehead, where the knife hit it.

''Wha-... what is that thing?'' Twilight pointed a shaking hoof at the humanoid.

''It's a Follower. And there's probably more of them. They came for me.'' Traveler explained and walked back to the bath tub, where his boxer was. The three of them had no problem looking away from is third limb, because they just saw the most terrifying creature bleeding out.

Traveler in his boxer, now went to Rarity's room. The door opened just in front of him.

''You're clothes.'' Rarity said and Traveler grabbed his new, now perfect clothes.

''Ah! Spike, just in time. And Rainbow Dash. Good to see you too.'' Rarity saw their faces. ''Darlings, what is the problem?''

''The problem is the dead Follower in the middle of the boutique Miss Rarity. Don't worry, I'll take care of it.'' Traveler said, as he threw his robe over himself. He finished dressing up and has everything on him.

He heard a 'thud' behind himself. ''Take care of the sleeping drama queen while I go. Better if they follow me to the forest and not come here.''

He rushed outside the boutique. As he looked around, he could feel the Followers watching him. As he turned towards the forest, he started walking. Then this walking became faster, fast enough to call it jogging. He raised his right hand, pointing at the ground next to him. His horse emerged from the ground as his arm was flaming and started running faster.

As the Traveler and his horse ran next to each other, he jumped up in the air and landed on his horse. With one hand holding the straps on the horse, the other one was next to him, ready for the fight.

''I'm prepared and they should be too...'' He said.

Somepony, please... explain why I like claws so much! For some reason, I want a claw like weapon, not a big flank sword or a gun. NO! I want to maul people/ponies.
And don't take seriously those 'Followers'. I just came up with a name. I'm not talking about you dear Followers...

The Forest

Twilight was looking at the dead humanoid. Rainbow flew outside, just to see Traveler riding into the forest, at high speed.
Spike dragged Rarity to the couch. It was now the second time, that she fainted.
They all did something different at the moment, still felt the same.

Shock, fear and confusion took over their minds...

''Now what?'' Asked the confused Spike, who tried to wake up Rarity.

''He-... he went into the forest...'' Flew back inside Rainbow Dash.

''T-t-those t-things a-are coming t-to ponyville...'' Twilight was now shaking.

''Twilight, calm down! He said those things will follow him. That's what they are, Followers. Hehhe...'' Rainbow tried to lighten the mood, but her unicorn friend just collapsed to the ground.

''What do I do? What do I do? What do I do? What do I do?'' She repeated, as she slowly curled into a ball, holding her head.

Rainbow and Spike looked at each other, trying to come up with a solution. The situation was really bad. Two of their friends freaked out. One fainted and one is just losing her mind.

''Twilight! Twilight!'' Rainbow flew to her friend. ''Twiilight!'' She said louder and tried to pick her up. ''Come on Twilight! Don't lose it now!'' Twilight just kept panicking.

''*GASP*'' Rarity woke up. She quickly looked around and saw the situation. She knew what to do. ''Twilight, dear! We have to send a letter to the Princess, remember?'' She said, calmly as she can in this stressful moment.

Mentioning the Princess was a good idea, because Twilight immediately stopped shivering. then she quickly looked up, glanced around the room. Gears turning in her head... aaand... puff! Light bulb...

''Spike, take a letter. We must do something, but first...''

She looked at her friends...

'' ... we're going to prepare too...''

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Traveler and Sprint sped trough the forest. The trees weren't that frequent, so the good old 'go left, go right, duck before you hit the branch, jump over a bush' tactic worked.
But as they ventured deeper, the wall of trees made the ride slower. Traveler looked up and saw the Followers, with their purple, glowing eyes watching him. ''They found me... now they can tell the blue and green ones where am I. Let's make it harder for them.''

He summoned his Eagle. ''Map! Get rid of our uninvited guests!'' He commanded and his eagle flew up, in it's purple flames. Map flew close to them and with a sudden outburst of purple flash, the Followers lost their track on Traveler and lost conscious.

As the now falling Followers were having their last seconds, Map screeched and flew away. But not without leaving another small explosion of purple flames. Traveler knew his eagle found something and he followed it.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Ponyville afternoon. The shops were open, ponies going to their own business. The strange being's arrival was no more the most interesting gossip. A new one already spread around the town.

''The Princess is in the town!''

''Where is she?''

''At the Carousel Boutique.''

''Princess Celestia needs a new dress?''

''Miss Rarity sure makes fine clothes.''

''If the Princess likes her work, then I should buy my dress for the gala from her.''

''That means Rarity is rich?''

These misunderstood statements reached three pony. And they went to pay a visit for their friend, Rarity.

''If tah Princess needs some fanc' dress, then she found tha finest des'gner in all of Equestria.'' Said Applejack, as her two other friends trotted next to her.

''Oh, it's so wonderful. It was Rarity's dream to make a dress for the Princess.'' Spoke up quietly Fluttershy.

''If the Princess is here, I can throw her a welcome to ponyville party. And Rarity's dream come true so we can go and celebrate. But we can't have two party at the same time. Well, actually we can, but ponies would get tired so fast, like Rainbow Dash. So instead having two party at the same time, we can have one HUGE party. And everypony would have fun. And having fun is FUN!'' This sentence only costed one breath for Pinkie Pie.

As Applejack rolled her eyes, she could see the boutique coming to view. From the front door, outstepped the Princess, Twilight, Spike Rarity and Rainbow Dash. The look on their faces told bad news for the farm pony and she ran up to them.
Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie soon followed. Which meant Fluttershy flying over to them and landing gracefully. And Pinkie Pie popping up... from nowhere of course.

''W'at is goin' on 'ere?'' Asked Applejack.

''See for yourself. I don't want to look at it.'' Shook her head Rarity.

The three went inside and just as they went in, Fluttershy screamed and ran outside, crying. Soon followed by a silent Pinkie Pie, with a blank stare. And Applejack looked shocked.

''What in tartanation happen'd?'' She asked slowly.

''It's no time to explain my little pony.'' Spoke up the calm Celestia. ''I send Luna after him. While you six support the royal guards. A new threat to Equestria is not a good sign. Take the elements of harmony and follow the guards!'' She ordered them.

''And what about you Princess?'' Asked an unsure Twilight.

''I must make sure that Canterlot and the other towns are safe. I will join you when I'm done.'' With that said, she left in a flash of light.

''Ohkay, can somepony tell me what tha hay is goin' on?!''

''I'll tell you on the way Applejack. Now bring your element and go!'' Said Twilight and she gave all the five elements to her five friends. She place her element on her head and they were right on the way.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Traveler traveled too slow, due to the lot of trees. He jumped off of his horse and it disappeared into his talisman.
But not just the trees slowed him down...

''This place is evil.'' He muttered.''Every shadow could be dangerous. It feels like something or someone is watching me. Yet, when I look there, I saw no one. I haven't seen any predator. I probably will, but now I know why they don't come into this forest.''

His eagle screeched again, and he looked up. ''The moment when I stepped amongst these trees, I walked into a magical area. The forest simply wants the visitors to go away. It's using our most feared imaginations to keep away the citizens.''

Map landed on his wrist and after one last quiet screech, it turned into his map. The map shoved a point where a small, purple spiral formed. ''Looks like a huge number of Followers are there. But something stronger must be with them. A leader maybe...'' He mused.

He then sent back his eagle to the sky and he thought for a moment. ''Now... map shoves me the way. I... use the same tactic as the Followers and predators...''

He attached his claws on his gauntlets and looked over it. ''Still sharp...'' Satisfied with it's condition, he ran up on a tree and pulled himself up with the claws. He climbed higher, then he sticked his head out from the leaves. He looked over the area.

He was in the middle of the forest. Trees around him formed a leaf blanket, that reached the horizon. Everywhere he looked, green. Green, green, green, tower, green, gre-... wait.
He looked back where he saw some kind of structure. And sure enough, a tall tower sticked out from the leaves.
And the huge amount of energy came from there...

''There...''

He said to himself and jumped...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''... so we must go after him. Maybe he doesn't want to hurt us, so we help him. If the Princess decides to send him away, then we have to make sure that he's not going to turn against us.'' Twilight finished explaining.

''So that's why I didn't felt twitchy tail. He isn't a pony and his ride is a horsey.'' Spoke up Pinkie, who stayed silent for the whole time.

''I hope the animals are alright...'' Said to herself Fluttershy, but nopony heard her.

''I made him those clothes just today. He better be careful with those.'' Chimed in Rarity... and she was the one who received a strange looks, not Pinkie.

''Ah still can't believe that happen'.'' Told Applejack, to Twilight.

''I know, I can still see that dead creature. And he's just killed it.'' Shook her head Twilight.

''Am I the only one who finds strange that he's riding Spirit?'' Suddenly Rainbow Dash.

Those looks on the faces... let's just go back to Traveler.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Catch, swing, wait, repeat...''

Traveler used his claws to swing to another branch. Chains made his work easier, to reach farther. Those chains were strong enough to carry his weight.
After each swing, he fell trough leaves and branches, absolutely ruining his clothes. It already has some dirt on it. ''For giving me the opportunity to ruin your work, I'm terribly sorry Miss Rarity.''

When he saw the right time, he caught a branch, chains tightening and he released. The forest was thick, he was easily swinging himself trough the woods, above the ground.

''If I keep that pace, I can reach that building under a hour...'' He told himself.

He knew that the Followers lost him long time ago. He took down their trackers, they don't know where he was now.

So he just swung to tree to tree...

Little did he know, that not just a few Followers was behind him. But a huge battalion of royal guards and the elements of harmony themselves...

The Ancient Castle

Zecora was still cleaning herself. The Royal Guards escorted her back to her hut and asked some questions. Still dumbfounded, she just kept using a cloth to wipe off the blood from her coat.

''ZECORA!'' Came the concerned voice from Twilight Sparkle.

She looked up to see the elements of harmony approach. As they stopped next to her, they looked over her. Zecora had some blood on her coat, mostly on her neck. She still remembered as a terrifying creature tackled her, then when she thought it's the end, a bipedal creature stabbed trough it's head and a blade exited trough it's mouth.
She asked his name and Traveler told her. That's when the Royal Guards found her.
''Zecora, are you alright? What happened?'' Asked Twilight.

Sighing, she calmly started. ''Creatures in the Everfree, that I myself never seen. Do not fear my friend, who saved me is The Traveling Horseman.'' She explained, using her rhymes of wisdoms.

''He saved you?'' Exclaimed Twilight and looked at her friends. They all seemed dumbfounded by the news. ''Where did he go?'' She asked from the zebra.

''The traveling spirit can go anywhere, but he's heading towards a Royal Sister.'' Zecora answered.

''Princess Luna!'' Twilight cried out. ''He's heading to the Ruins of the Ancient Castle of the Royal Pony Sisters. Come on girls, we have to help Luna!'' And they left Zecora in her hut.

''Good luck Twilight Sparkle...'' Muttered the zebra.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Trees are useless now.'' Growled Traveler, as he crouched down and started moving.

He was really near to the tower. So he decided to approach it from the ground, stealthy. He already met with Followers, as they attacked a zebra. There was no time to say 'thanks', because the Royal Guards were after him. ''I've gained enough distance. Why did Twilight had to send guards after me. Those ponies should stay out of this. They don't know this enemy, I do.'' He thought.

After twenty minutes of silent approach, a castle came to view. It was just a ruined building, with a tower on the top... and a huge amount of magic came from the building. ''Found them...''

A bridge separated the castle and him. The bridge was in a bad condition. ''Yes, and I probably use that garbage...'' He thought.

But as he found no choice, he came up with a solution. He walked to the bridge and cut the ropes. He grabbed the last rope, held it tightly and cut it. He swung over the gap, mist covered the bottom of that and the forest's magic made it more creepier.

But he had other things to to. He used his legs to reduce the impact and started climbing up. He reached the top and took a look at the building. It probably saw better days before...
Wines covered most of the walls, plants started growing on the windows and it looked like it's about to collapse.

''And where are the Followers?'' He asked himself.

And like a magical wish... Followers...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Shining!'' Cried out Twilight.

''Twily!'' Shining armor greeted his little sister.

''I'm so glad to see you there. We have to find Traveler!'' She hugged her brother and he returned the embrace.

''Don't worry, I'm not gonna let him to hurt you. All of you is safe as long as I'm here...'' He smiled at Twilight.

Twilight smiled back, but quickly changed her expression to confused. ''I-I don't understand. At first, he's talking like a cold hearted murder, then suddenly, he wants to help us. I-I don't know if I should worry about his well being. Or I should afraid of him.'' She slowly hugged her brother and he held her close.

''We will see what happens... don't worry Twilight!''

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Too easy...''

Traveler walked up to the huge, double, wooden doors. He left a quiet gruesome scene behind. ''The ponies will clean up my mess. Because I'm not gonna, that's for sure...''

The doors creaked open, just enough to squeeze himself inside... or to let a Follower grab him.
A huge arm grabbed him by his neck, trying to pull him inside. Seeing that he couldn't reach his claws or blades, he tried something new.
He grabbed the two doors and slammed it into the creatures face. As the creature's grip loosened, Traveler jumped up, kicked close the door, separating the creature and it's arm. The door had a bloody circle from the inside and outside.
Traveler got some blood too on his new clothes. ''Great! It's like I never repaired this actually. Back to the start point.''

The huge hand was still on his neck. He grabbed it at the elbow, stood up and opened the door again. An armless creature was lying on the floor, around it a smaller horde of Followers.

''Oh, I killed your friend? Aww, look how much I sorry!'' Pointing a finger at himself, he mocked them.
Than suddenly, he rushed forward. The Followers couldn't react in time. A huge hand sent them flying away. Swinging the huge arm from left, right, spin around and strike, Traveler quickly cleared out the place. Every hit met with the sound of bones breaking and Followers crashing into walls, floor or ceiling. The bigger Followers only had broken bones all over their body and eventually, Traveler's new weapon broke too.

Two bigger Follower stood in front of him. They were a troll and some kind of dragon thing, from the previous world. Surprisingly, the dragon attacked first. It wanted to bite Traveler, but he stuffed the huge, broken arm inside it's mouth and jumped on top of it's head. There, he used his claws to slide down on it's back. Scales parted to two different direction, earning a choked scream from the dragon.

The dragons back was now open to free attacks. And the troll just joined just in time. It wanted to smash Traveler on the dragon's back. He jumped at it's extended arm. The dragon's spine broke and the sharp spikes penetrated the troll's hand. When it retreated it's hand from the scales, Traveler used this momentum, to deliver a powerful kick, at it's only one, big eye ball.
The eye ball just exploded under Travelers boot's and the troll quickly bleed out...

As a result, Traveler looked over what he did. He stood in the middle of a bloody lake. His arms and legs covered in a blood, from different kind of creatures. The smell didn't even bothered him.

''Now... where is that leader. There's a big magical energy here. It's impossible for a small horde to have that much magic.'' He thought, as he stayed still, trying to find any movement around him.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''HALT!'' Shouted Shining Armor. ''We can't cross here!''

''Hey! I fixed this bridge last time!'' Spoke up Rainbow Dash.

''Thous ropes! Somepony cut dem!'' Pointed out Applejack.

''Traveler...'' Whispered Twilight.

''DONE!'' Cried out Pinkie, who stood next to the new and stable bridge.

''WHAT?!'' The girls exclaimed.

''Oh, I placed this 'Bridge Equipment' here, if we have a bridge emergency here.'' She said happily.

''But... how did you kno-... never mind!'' gave up Twilight, who remembered to not question Pinkie Pie.

''Let's move!'' Ordered Shining Armor, not really bothered about Pinkie's randomness and the royal guards started walking trough the bridge.

The sun was setting down. Only Rainbow Dash remembered that silly joke about twilight, that Traveler said. She was the only one who chose to stay loyal and think about Traveler like new friend, who needs help.
As she thought back what happened that day, she remembered Celestia saying something about her sister. The sun finally settled and the moon came to view. ''Where is the Princess?'' She thought and looked at the castle.

There, she saw the Night Princess flying inside the building. She went trough the windows on the top of the tower part. ''The Princess went inside!'' Spoke up Rainbow Dash.

''Hurry, we must help her!'' Urged Twilight the others.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''I checked the map and it say that I'm right at the point where the magic comes from. That means... it's right under me?'' He looked down. ''No, that's ridiculous...'' Then it hit him. He looked at a staircase, that led upstairs. ''Or it's above me...''

He walked up the stairs and he felt something new arriving up there. He quickened his pace and found himself at some kind of throne room. A huge window, with colorful peaces shoved two alicorn, the sun and the moon.

*tap*

He turned left, just in time to see a lone Follower pouncing at him. He grabbed it by it's neck and used his green flames to light up the Followers head. It tried to put out the fire, but it kept burning.
Traveler used his claws to drag the Follower around. He used the dying creature to see in the dark. He looked around, examined some mosaic, painting, stone of pillars and the big windows.

The Follower finally died and collapsed on the ground. He left it there and walked closer to the window. ''That's what Twilight talked about...''

He summoned his map, flipped around and placed his hand on the glass. He looked at a spot on his scroll, where he wrote down information about The Royal Sisters History and a picture about this window appeared next to those notes. The purple light died out and only the green flames gave him some light source.

Then something made the wind to blow trough the room. The green fire died out, making the room totally dark.

''Do not move! We only want tho to speak!''

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''EEP!'' Cried out Fluttershy, as she nearly stepped on a dead corpse.

The group reached the place, where Traveler left the gruesome scene. Bodies hang from the trees, cuts and stabs on the dead Followers. And of course...

''So much blood...'' Commented Shining Armor.

''That's it, I don't trust Traveler anymore. We have to stop him, whatever he wants to do.'' Said the determined Twilight.

''Ah'm wit' ya Twi.'' Applejack walked next to her.

''Me too! Me too!'' Exclaimed Pinkie Pie, bouncing next to her friends.

''Well, I don't want to see these... awful creatures and he making a mess like that. So I'm with you darling.'' Joined Rarity.

They looked at Rainbow. ''Yeah... sure. Of course I'm with you girls.'' She said, giving a fake smile.

As much as Rainbow wanted to stay with her friends, she had different opinions. ''He's doing it on purpose. And he saved Zecora and went there, just to save the town. He's not evil... I know it.''

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Show yourself! Then we can might talk...'' Traveler said to the female voice.

''Then tho must put down your weapon.'' Came the voice.

Traveler hesitated, but put down his claws on the ground. As he reached his full height, a magical blast came from his right. He immediately threw himself to the ground, grabbed his claws and sent Map, up above to illuminate the throne room.

The purple glow revealed an alicorn. She was dark blue, wore some kind of necklace and horseshoes, that shimmered. Her expression shoved confusion, as she looked at the glowing eagle.

''We only want to speak eh?'' Said Traveler. ''So even the Princesses came here to make my job easier. I told Twilight to not worry about me. The Followers are my problem, not yours.'' Luna looked at him, still confused. ''But now, you all came here and became my problem. Leave before you got into more trouble!''

''How dare tho threat me while tho came here without permission? And I have not spoken about these dangerous creatures, that tho brought here.'' Luna said, forcing back her anger.

''I did not threat you now. I warn you. There is a huge magical energy here and it's not yours. Something is here and it will attack soon. Leave, before this problem of mine, becomes yours too.'' Traveler said, looking around.

''We want tho to come with us and take care of that 'problem' together.'' Luna calmed down a bit. ''I only want tho to put away your weapons and let the royal guards escort you to Canterlot Castle.''

''As escort, you mean drag me to prison.'' Luna was taken aback. ''Don't look at me like I'm a stupid monkey. I know well what's going on outside. They saw the dead bodies of the Followers and thinks that I'm evil.'' He looked deep into Luna's eyes. ''And you think that too, but not exactly like them.''

''Wh- what are tho talking about?'' Stammered Luna. She had to keep her true identity as a secret, but Traveler found out the truth.

''You know well. You are only concerned, that I'm a stronger being than you. You know well, why I killed those. You are different from the other ponies. That's why I give a second chance to leave me alone now.'' He stopped for a moment. ''Keep all the ponies away from this castle. It will be dangerous to come close to this building. A huge fight is about to come Night Princess.''

Luna just stared at him. She did not expected him do be like that. They said he's too dangerous to even talk to him. And now, here he is, giving her a second chance to go without a fight, after she attacked him.

But Luna had to bring him back. ''I am really sorry, but I still have to bring tho with me. However, I appreci-...''

*GROWL*

The two looked at the far end of the throne room. There, an army of Followers swarmed into the room. All kinds of creatures from every world, that Traveler have visited. And now, that he already been in Equestria for one day, scaled pony Followers were amongst the army. They glowed in blue, purple and green.
The purple ones told the army where he was. The green ones transported the blue ones closer to him. And the blue ones now came to fight.

''Now go Night Princess! It's not your fight!'' Traveler said and he readied his weapons and summoned his horse.

Luna looked at him and the horde. She hesitated, then after a frustrated sigh, she teleported next to him.
Traveler sighed. ''I had a feeling that you would join anyways.''

Luna grinned. ''If the others ask, tell them that I wanted you alive. They will believe that.''

Traveler hummed. ''And truly, why do you want to help me?''

Luna grinned even wider. ''Because recently, I became really stressed. And I want to let go of this stress.'' She summoned her Nightmare Moon armor and placed it on herself. However, she did not turned into Nightmare Moon.

''Anything else you want to tell me?'' Asked Traveler. Then he summoned a double long pole-ax. Two double blade was placed on both ends, facing to different directions. A magical energy hold the two peace together at the middle of the handle. He could use it as two double pole-ax, for both hands, or in one piece.

''I would be honored, If I can fight on your side...'' Luna smirked.

Traveler chuckled. ''Then, let me have the first few shots...'' he said, stabbing his weapon into the ground. The weapon was long enough, so it reached his waist, as he sat on his horse. He pulled of his bow and placed three arrows on it. He pulled the string, placed the bow in a horizontal position.

Then fired the first three shots...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

The girls and the guards, just stepped into the castle, but the smell of fresh blood quickly made some guards to ran back outside to get some fresh air.

The coughing group of royal guards stood at the edge of the bridge. They ran away from the smelly castle and they reached the deep gap.

Meanwhile, the girls tried their best to convince themselves to go inside. But when Twilight and Rainbow Dash finally found the strenght to get inside, the guards from the bridge ran back to them.

''They coming from the forest! We're trapped here!'' They shouted as they arrived at the captain.

''Get ready! Don't let them cross the bridge!'' Ordered Shining Armor and turned to the girls. ''Twilight, I need you and your friends to get inside. It's dangerous out there. Find Traveler and get him. Princess Luna is inside so don't worry. Now go!'' And he ran to the bridge, helping his guards to stop the army of Followers.

The girls were nervous. Really nervous.

Twilight gulped and walked inside...

Soon followed her other five friends...

Is it weird, if I wrote this chapter, while I hold two knife and play Traveler in my room? Because it feels so bucking cool!

The Battle

EPIC BATTLE MUSIC!

Everything stopped for a moment...

The three arrows speeding trough the air. The army of Followers mindlessly rushing towards the two immortal. Luna spread out her wings ready to take off. Map's glowing eyes reflected it's master, Traveler's movement, as he quickly placed his bow back, across his shoulder.

Everything was so slow...

Then, suddenly the three arrows started burning in blue flames. Traveler's gauntlet's burning in the same blue flames. It looked like the arrows became faster.

And then... the arrows found their marks...

''FORWAAAARD!!!''

Luna cried out...

Everything started moving again at normal speed. The three arrows penetrated trough three Followers, killing another three behind them, as the powerful shot went trough them.
After her battle cry, Luna flew forward the army of Followers, Traveler riding next to her, with his weapon pointing forward.
Those Followers, who were unlucky, they tripped over their fallen mates. Their still running mates stomped over them, killing their own teammates.

The fight just started seconds ago and a lot of things happened inside...

MUSIC ENDS!

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Princess Luna!'' Twilight said and looked at her friends. They were shocked to hear her crying out.

''What are we waiting for? We have to find her!'' Rainbow Dash urged her friends.

Despite the terrible smell, they walked trough the bloody lake. Rainbow Dash and Flutterhy were lucky, they had wings. While the others had to step on the blood, feeling the still warm liquid under their hooves.

Much to Rarity's disgust...

''Eww! If I think about making new clothes for that brute! Disgusting! He probably ruined it...''

''Ah can't believe yo thought he's a good fellah Rainbow Dash.'' Spoke up Applejack, who felt bad for walking on the dead bodies.

''Hey! Maybe he hurt this things, but not because he likes doing it!'' Snapped Rainbow Dash at Applejack. ''And just so you know, he saved us, Zecora and left ponyville, so nopony gets hurt. I still think he's a good guy!''

The girls looked at her, stunned by their friends sudden outburst. Pinkie looked like she can hear something.

''I still think he's dangerous and I'm not gonna trust him.'' Stated Twilight.

''Who cares. You just angry because you think he used you to get information.'' Rainbow retorted.

''Take. That. Back!'' Twilight gritted her teeth.

''No Twilight. You know that I'm right.''

''No you're not. He's dangerous and we shouldn't trust him.'' Twilight held her nose high and kept walking. ''And you shouldn't trust him either. We are one team now and we have to work together.''

''Make me.'' All the girls looked at Rainbow Dash in shock. She just turned against all of them.

''Rainbow Dash. Don't be a stubborn mare an' stop shoutin'!'' Applejack was the one who broke the silence.

''You mean LIKE THIS?!'' Rainbow shouted.

''Yes. LIKE THIS!'' Applejack glared at her.

''Uhm... please. W-we don't have to fight girls. I mean... here. It's so scary here...'' Whispered Fluttershy, shivering from the sign of dead dragon.

But the girls kept arguing. ''I HAVE MY OPINION? YOU HAVE YOUR'S! GOT IT?!''

''WELL? AH THINK YO OPINION IS STUPID LIKE ON OF MAH UNCLE!''

''Darling, how could you possibly like that monster?!''

''MORE SHOUTING! WEHEE!''

''STOP THIS! WE CAN'T WORK TOGETHER IF WE KEEP ARGUING!''

Fluttershy tried to calm down her friends, but they were too stubborn. As she saw her friends not doing the mission and kept shouting everything, she took a deep breath and...

''SSSTOOOOOOOOOOP!!!''

The girls immediately looked at her, eyes wide. Fluttershy blushed a bit and smiled sheepishly. ''I think Rainbow is right...'' She said innocently.

''What?!'' All the girls, except Rainbow Dash, said at the same time. Oh and Pinkie started bobbing hear head, like she's listening to music.

Awkward silence filled the room. The girls just stared at each other, trying to find the perfect thing to say.
Rainbow finally saw Pinkie moving her head, like she's enjoying some music.

''What are you doing?''

''Oh, I'm just listening to that epic battle music...'' Pinkie answered.

And another awkward silence...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

THE FOLLOWING SCENE HAPPENED AT THE SAME TIME!

Princes Luna flew over the army, sending a midnight blue, Traveler rushed into the enemy's first line.

Then Luna made a wide turn and looked at Traveler. Traveler looked up and saw Luna coming back.

They both looked at each other, in the eyes and nodded. They went back to kill the remaining Followers.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

The Royal Guards, tried their best, to hold back the Followers's backup. Who tried to cross the bridge, they simply kicked them down, or shook the bridge, so they will fall down. Most of the Followers were not intelligent and did the same thing, what the previous ten mate did. So it was easy for the earth ponies to hold the line. Hell... they even talked to each other about random things.
The pegasi held their place well too. Unicorns shot down the flying creatures and pegasi kicked them down the ones, who somehow survived the paralyzing spell.
Shining Armor went to and fro. He helped out the unicorns and pagasi, then cheered for the earth ponies.

They thought nothing can surprise them.

Suddenly trolls and dragons...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Twilight Sparkle and the girls reached the throne room. As Twilight walked at the front, Rainbow quickly pulled her back and motioned for everypony to stay low.

''Is that... the Princess?'' Twilight asked in awe.

''There's Traveler. Where the hay did he get that thing. It's huge...'' Rainbow commented.

''We're not just trapped inside, but trapped inside with these... things. Darling, we should stay out of this. Look, they can handle it.'' Nudged Rarity her friend.

''No, we have to use the Elements of Harmony!'' Twilight stood up and started concentrating her magic.

The girls soon followed and they started glowing. Only, to be interrupted by that little, sneaky bastard. It hit Twilight on the head, stunning her. She only made out a big blur approaching her.

The girls dropped to the ground and rushed to her. Rainbow glanced to the right, only to saw a huge shadow outside the window, growing larger.

Rainbow wasted no time, flew to Twilight, before the creature hit her again, she pulled her away. Suddenly, a huge rock broke trough the window, sending glass shards everywhere. The creature looked at the rock, just for a second and it hit the creature. It squeezed the creature into a bloody puddle. Exactly where Twilight got pulled away seconds ago.

Twilight looked at Rainbow and she looked back at her. Twilight hugged her. ''I'm sorry Rainbow Dash!''

''For... what?'' She asked Twilight.

''For not respecting your opinion.'' Twilight pulled away from her and stood up.

''It's nothing really, I already forgot about that...'' Rainbow waved her hoof.

''You stayed loyal to me and I showed no respect. Can you forgive me?'' She looked at Rainbow Dash with teary eyes.

''Of course Twilight, you're my friend!'' And they hugged again.

The girls all smiled at the two. And Pinkie had the most epic moment in her life. Epic music, battle at the background and FRIENDSHIP!

Suddenly... MOAR FOLLOWERS...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Don't let them throw anymore!'' Ordered Shining Armor.

Apparently, the dragons were blowing fire at the pegasi and trolls throwing rocks everywhere. The guards got disoriented and they had to fall back.

''Captain! What do we do now. We're trapped!'' Asked a guard.

Shining of course had another plan. Plan B to be exact. ''Stay behind me!'' He ordered and after he made sure, that nopony is missing, he concentrated his magic and created a HUGE protection spell around the whole castle. His guards cheered him and he sat down.
''It wont hold forever. I hope Twily is okay...''

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

A few more rocks came inside the window. Luna had no problem with them, she kept flying towards Twilight Sparkle and her friends.

But Traveler had to dodge those projectiles. He saw the ponies at the staircase and saw Luna flying to them. Half of the army turned towards the six friends. Cursing under his breath, Traveler made his way trough the crowd of mindless Followers.

A rock hit the ceiling above him and he stopped and turned around. The Followers behind him died under the debris and he made two wide slash at the incoming enemies.
Then he did a backflip over the debris. A Follower just stood up on top of the debris and as Traveler was in the middle of the backflip (upside-down), he looked at it, right in the eye, their faces inches away, barely touching each other.
As Traveler landed and turned around, he raised his weapon over himself, stabbing the creature, who played staring contest with him for those nano seconds.
With his weapon over himself, he brought it down and at the same time jumped. So now, he did a front flip, and thanks to the momentum, he managed to reach the girls.

Princess Luna already made some damage. So Traveler just slammed his weapon down, killing everything around the blade. Luna landed next to him and they didn't let trough any Follower.

''You fools! What did I told you about leaving me alone!'' Shouted Traveler and slammed his weapon down. Blue flames surrounded both his blades. A wave of blue flames pushed back and burned the Followers, around the blade, in a small radius.

''Use the elements Twilight Sparkle! We hold them up for you!'' Shouted Luna, as she held her place, shooting at the enemy.

The girls wasted no time and started the ritual. While they floated in the air, Traveler held his weapon in front of him and he started spinning it really fast. It looked like a blue shield after a short time.

''Princess!'' He shouted and threw his spinning weapon in the air, below Map, who kept glowing even brighter.

''Got it!'' She shouted back and made a shield force around all of them.

The spinning weapon stopped under Map. The eagle screeched and sent a beam of purple magic at the weapon. From the weapon, a blue and purple energy slammed into the ground below it, in a wider area. A lot of Followers crashed into the walls, as the energy hit that area, where they stood.
Traveler's hand started burning in green flames and his horse appeared at the opposite side of the room. Sprint sprinted towards the magical beam in the middle of the room.

''Forward Princess!'' Shouted Traveler.

Luna hesitated for a moment, then she saw what he meant. She dismissed her spell and rushed to the magical beam. Knocking away the enemy, she made her way towards the beam, in front of her. Spirit running towards it too, to her direction.

Meanwhile, the Followers tackled Traveler to the ground and they started hitting, biting, slashing him. He waited patiently, ignoring the pain.

Outside, Shining Armor couldn't hold anymore and his shield broke down. They tried to fight back, but the Followers outnumbered them.

Princess Luna and Spirit met at the beam and head butting each other...

The girls finished the ritual and sent the rainbow at the now green, blue and purple beam...

And with all the three types of magic and with the Elements of Harmony, an incredible amount of magical energy exploded inside the castle...

And everything went bright white...

After the storm

When someone cry out in agony, it's not the best thing you want to hear.
Imagine a terrifying creature, screaming in agony. The worst thing to hear...

Even the explosion wasn't enough to muffle the screams of hundreds of those monsters. Luna gritted her teeth, as she felt the massive energy exploding right in front of her.
Sprint remained silent, because he was a horse...
Map just kept glowing, not giving a single screech about what is happening...
The girls had the worst part. They not just felt like something squeezing them. They couldn't cover their ears from those ear bleeding screams. The Elements of Harmony drained all their strenght as well...

Only one soul felt different. Or more like a certain Spirit...

The Followers, who had their teeth sunk into him, or the ones, who penetrated his armor... they all got ripped away from him, tearing more skin and flesh out of him. And spilling more blood...
But he forced back to scream, from the serious damage. And did the only thing he could...

Grinned...

He enjoyed every second of those moments. The screams were music for him. His wounds were the 'say goodbye' gifts for the Followers. And the blood was the drink...

The explosion only lasted for a few seconds, then nothing but silence. Everything went into a blinding, bright light. No sound, no sign...

The Followers burned to ash, then disappeared from the living world...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

The girls landed on the ground. They hardly stood on the their legs. Head spinning and ears ringing. Luna panted, with her eyes closed.

''Everypony alright?'' Twilight was the first to regain herself.

''Yeah, I'm cool!'' Called Rainbow Dash.

''That was a wild ride...'' Commented Applejack.

''Phew... that was... exhausting. I think I lie down for moment darlings...'' Huffed Rarity and summoned a red couch, to lie down.

''I-is it over?'' Asked Fluttershy, not daring to open her eyes.

''YAAAAAY! THAT WAS AWESOME! DO IT AGAIN!'' Hopped around Pinkie Pie, still full of energy, after the epic battle.

''I am fine Twilight Sparkle!'' Luna finally turned around and started walking to them.

Satisfied, that everypony is alright, Twilight looked at Traveler's motionless body.

His clothes were ruined, torn apart. His hood covered his bloody face, a huge red dot on his chest and little ones all over his body. The Followers surely wanted him dead...

Twilight froze in place. ''He... he didn't disappeared...'' She said and slowly, started walking towards him.

''Why should he disappear?'' Asked Rainbow Dash.

''The Elements supposed to destroy everything and anything that is evil...'' Twilight answered, still confused and dumbstruck.

''I told you he's not evil. Can you believe me now?'' Flew next to her Rainbow Dash.

Suddenly, Traveler's hands lit up in blue flames. The flames formed a blue fireball above him and a blue wildcat jumped out of it.

Rainbow Dash and Twilight stopped in their track and backed away from the beast.
Luna started running to them and when she was close to Traveler's body, Sprint blocked her way. The horse just looked at her, not moving.

''What are tho doing?!'' Spoke up Luna.

Map flew down to Traveler and landed on his chest. The eagle shut it's eyes and a purple tear rolled down on it's face. As the tear fell on to Traveler's face, he started glowing.
Then the wildcat, slowly backed away from the girls, not taking it's eyes down from them. Then it turned around and licked Traveler's face. After that, it moved to his arm and bite it. The wound started burning in blue flames.

The girls gasped. They couldn't do anything, just stare at the scene. Lune frowned at this and looked back at Sprint. She saw the horse turning around and walking up to his master. Sprint nuzzled and nudged his master, then he suddenly reared up and slammed his hooves down on Travelers heart.

A green wave of energy went trough his body. His wounds closed by the flames and the blood from him, got washed away by the purple liquid.

When all the glowing and burning died out, the three animal took a few steps back. They just stared as Traveler and waited.

''What the hay happened?'' Said Rainbow Dash quietly.

More silence filled the throne room. Luna looked concerned. She had a slight conjecture about what is happening.
The girls glanced at each other, with wide eyes and open mouth.

Suddenly... Traveler's body twitched...

And his whisper echoed trough the walls...

''Thank you, my faithful friends...''

Alright, here's the situation guys and girls!
The school holiday ended, so this means slower progress. I will only have time at weekends to write and it will be not enough. So that means, chapters will only come out every week or two weeks. Sorry, but that school is really hard.

So now, I leave you all with this little 'goodbye' chapter. I really feel sad for slowing down. I'm actually kinda depressed, because it feels like closing the story. I hope we see each other soon, dear readers!

We will meet on our roads again...

Fresh Start

''Traveler... are you-''

''Princess Luna! Are you alright?!'' Rainbow started, but Twilight interrupted. She wanted to rush to Alicorn, but she wasn't sure about those magical animals.

''I am fine Twilight Sparkle. This battle was sure exhausting, but other than that, I'm fine.'' Replied the Princess, as she kept watching Traveler breathing heavily. ''Are tho all alright Elements of Harmony?''

''Yes we are Princess!'' Twilight answered.

Traveler kept lying on the ground staring at the celling. His heart raced, as his body rebuilt itself. His senses coming back to him. The blood in his veins flowing trough his limbs.

Twilight stepped closer to him. ''By Princess Celestia's commend, you are coming with us.'' She started her monologue.

Traveler kept breathing heavily. His chest rising and falling.

''You brought a dangerous threat to Equestria!'' Twilight kept going.

His lungs were still burning, as he tried to speak.

''You put, not just us into danger, but Princess Luna could be harmed by those things!''

Rainbow Dash and Luna heard something coming out of his mouth and they tried to listen to it. But Traveler couldn't find his voice.

''Now you coming with us and the Princess will decide what to do with you!''

Now he could feel the energy washing trough his entire body. The lungs weren't burning that much. He could move his fingers too.

''We don't have to fight anymore. Tell your animals to calm down and you will be fine!''

As he felt his body finally giving him enough strenght, he clenched his fingers, tightening his grip. He was getting annoyed. His arms slightly shook, as he reached a breaking point. He couldn't grip into anything, to calm himself down.

''Shut up!'' He hardly whispered.

Twilight did not heard it. But Luna, Fluttershy and Rainbow did. ''Twilight, he's trying to say something!'' Rainbow landed next to her friend.

Twilight stopped talking. She tried to make out what Traveler said. She couldn't. ''I don't care what kind of excuse he's trying to come up with. He's dangerous. I'm sorry Rainbow, but just... just look around! He ruined the castle, put us and the Princess in danger.'' She looked at everypony, then back at him.

''What do you have to say?!'' Demanded Twilight.

That was her call for it. Traveler had enough...

''SHUT YOUR MOUTH!''

Everypony were taken aback. His voice boomed trough the castle.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Outside the Castle, a white Alicorn quickened her speed. Behind her, a new army of Royal Guards. Guards in golden and dark armor followed her lead.

Princess Celestia landed in front of the injured Shining Armor and his team. They were lying around the entrance. Cuts and bruises everywhere on their bodies, but nothing deadly.

Celestia was surprised to see no more Followers. She knew that her student did it, so she let out a sigh of relief.
Shinning Armor spotted her and tried to stand up. Grunting, as he tried, he eventually failed. The medics immediately started their work, taking care of their injuries.

''I see, Twilight and her friends made it.'' Stated Celestia.

''Princess- AGH! We heard a shout. Is Twilight safe?'' Shining asked her, wincing, as the doctors helped him to stand up.

''I'm sure they all alright. You can rest now! This fight is over.'' She said and walked into the castle.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Traveler's wildcat, helped him to sit up. He used the cat's shoulder to push himself up. Luna kept calm and understood why is he upset.

''THINK, before you say something!'' He shouted.

He proceeded to stand up and sighed. His back and neck popping back to it's place, his legs getting used to his weight and he let out a satisfied groan, then slowly looked at Twilight.

Twilight was still stunned. He survived the Elements of Harmony, an army of deadly humanoids and nearly died. Now, he was standing tall and straight.

And he looked really angry...

''First! Yes, I brought them here, but not on purpose! And I still apologize!'' He told her.

As much as Fluttershy understood his problem, she still felt scared. Those animals looked a bit scary for her. Rarity and Applejack watched, as he kept shouting. Rainbow looked at Twilight, Traveler and Luna, watching the events.

And Pinkie Pie... even me, the author can't see her... bucking fourth wall...

''Second!'' He continued. ''YOU put yourself in danger, because you foolishly followed me! If you would just THINK, then I wouldn't have to defend you and she wouldn't have to put herself in danger!''

Luna wanted to say something, but Traveler wasn't finished yet.

''I ruined the castle?! Dose it look like I I can throw rocks through the window? And your friend just saved your life back there. Excect a hug and few tears, you should give her more credit! And you should THANK me, for saving your life. TWICE!''

Rainbow grinned awkwardly and rubbed the back of her head.

''That's what I have to say!'' He took a few, deep breath. ''It's just as your fault as mine. You all have, every rights to blame me. Just like I have every rights to be angry, because you nearly killed yourselves. I told you, it's my fight.''

Even, if Applejack didn't know much about what happened, she found his explanation acceptable. She nodded a few times to herself.

Nopony saw the pink, party pony doing the same thing, as she was looking trough the broken window.

''And what you just did? Follow me. Follow me to your death. I could easily take care of this, without worrying about you.'' He looked at Luna. ''I appreciate your help, Night Princess. But this wasn't your fight. And don't be mad, but what you did was foolish. You have so much to lose. I don't.''

''It is alright, Traveling Spirit.'' She giggled and looked away from him. An embarrassed blush, slightly visible on her cheek.

Traveler hummed and turned back to the girls. ''Next time... leave me to die, instead of following me. You ALL have much to lose.''

Rarity allowed herself a small smile. He agreed with him, she have much to lose. She stared to regret, not talking to Twilight about his advice, to not follow him.

Pinkie appeared next to her, wearing the same smile and... the same mane stile too...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Celestia was impressed. She heard all of it. A being, from other wolds, worrying about her own subjects. That brought a smile to her face. ''Maybe, I misunderstood him...'' She thought a decided to show herself.

''I- I still have to bring you to the Princess. I understand what you're saying, but a command is a command. You're coming with us!''

Celestia decided against her previous plan. She wanted to know, what he would say about that.

''That's not gonna happen.'' She expected this answer. ''I'm deeply sorry... Element of Magic...'' He said and Celestia's eyes widened. ''He knows who they are?'' She thought and he continued.

''... because... she's here... and listening.''

If Celestia's eyes weren't wide enough, now they reached the maximum. ''How did he-...

''Why don't you join us... Princess of the Sun?'' He asked calmly.

''Hey! What the hay are you talking about?'' Spoke up Rainbow.

''Sister? Is that tho presence I feel?'' Luna looked around.

''What?'' Said the girls.

Celestia knew she got spotted. (Sneaking, eavesdropping, hiding and standing still is hard, with flowing mane and white fur... advice, from an expert assassin...) But she did not know, how he saw her.

And there, a certain eagle screeched down at her, from the ceiling. It's eyes glowing...

''Hmm... Looks like you still stayed alert...'' Stated Celestia and revealed herself, from the staircase.

''Princess Celestia!'' Cried out Twilight and rushed to her mentor.

''Hello, my little ponies! I'm glad to see you Twilight.'' The Princess said, as Twilight stopped in front of her.

''Princess, what do we do?'' She glanced back at Traveler.

Celestia looked at him and saw Traveler, folding his arms in front of him and leaning against his right leg. His head slightly tilting back, revealing, just a little more of his face. He wore an expression, that told her he was waiting.

Luna walked next to him. She glanced at her sister, then back to him. Traveler didn't budge.

All eyes were moving back and forth, between the Princess and the spirit.

Pinkie did it too fast, so her eyes went all crazy...

Celestia looked down at Twilight, with a small smile. Yes, that one smile, that we all knew, hate and at the same time... find really cute...

''We don't do anything.'' She informed her student.

''WHAT?!'' All the girls, except Rainbow Dash and Luna, who let out a sigh in relief and a 'YEAH!'.

''I misunderstood you Traveler.'' She started walking closer to him, Twilight soon followed her. Rainbow quickly flew next to him and the girls trotted closer too. ''You showed no hostility. You even protected my subjects, while you're from other worlds. True, those creatures are still a threat to Equestria, but It is not your fault.''

He kept looking at her, waiting patiently, while Twilight started to realize her own mistake. She even started to like him. The others listened, happy to her the news.

''I accept your apologize and I am sorry, for giving you a hard time.'' She continued.

''Will you accept my friendship?''

Traveler didn't budge and his face showed no emotions from the outside. But from the inside... ''Friendship? Really? Not a handshake or hoofshake? Not an agreement? A contract? Just... friendship?''

''I will...'' He answered simply.

Celestia bowed to him, but he kept standing there, arms folded.

Twilight whispered. ''What are you doing? Bow!'' She glared at him.

Traveler looked down at her. ''I'm not her subject. As she said, friendship. Not worship or partnership. And I don't know much about friendship, but I do know... friends are not bow to each other. Therefore, I'm not gonna bow to her... or anyone.'' He explained.

Everypony looked at Celestia, waiting for her response. Twilight took back what she thought about him, moments ago.

''That's quiet alright.'' She looked at Twilight. ''I didn't expect him to do it. I don't want to force him eather.'' Twilight grinned sheepishly and decided to back away.

Somewhere, Pinkie Pie did the same thing too...

''Why don't we continue this conversation outside?'' Suggested Celestia.

''Finally, I can stretch my wings.'' And with that, Rainbow dashed outside, trough the window.

Luna stayed by Traveler's side and Celestia on his other side. The girls were already trotting ahead, down the stairs.

''So Luna?'' Spoke up Celestia, smiling at her sister. ''Did you have fun?''

''Tia!'' Whined the Night Princess.

Traveler just chuckled.

''Maybe... this will turn out well...''

I MISSED YOU DEAR READERS SOO MUCH! D:
My school has gone crazy. They want me to go to a lot of competition and other things. JUST to leave me less free time and writing time.
But meanwhile, I wrote all the tests and I done well. So for now, I will have a bit more free time. It probably least for a week, but I can't pinkie promise anything...

As for this chapter. I wrote it under five hours. Nonstop, smokeless writing. Here it is, I hope it's delicious.
I have a pretty creative idea, about what will happen next. And (SPOILERS) winter is coming, so Traveler can see more exotic places too.

I want to be around with you guys, so PM me if you want. I'm gladly answer anything, no matter how silly the question is. Or if you just want to chat. That's it.
Oh, and if winter is coming, this means, I will see the world in an other way. And this means... new ideas. YAAY C:

That's it for now. I hope you enjoy the series so far, leave a comment, so I know what you think of my little tale.
And see you guys and girls later. Have a good night!

Prepare he sa-... wait, this chapter already exist!

''Traveler, I am really happy, that you accepted my friendship.'' Said Celestia, happily.

''The feeling is mutual.'' Said Traveler, somewhat more cheerful than ever.

''Will you accept my sister's friendship as well?'' She asked and looked at Luna, who blushed a bit.

''We... do not have to do that big sister.''

''And why is that my little sister?'' Celestia tilted her head.

''We arth already friends.'' She answered quickly.

''Really? Since when?'' Celestia kept going, while Luna tried to hide her embarrassment.

''Red is not your color, Night Princess...'' Stated Traveler.

''He's right Luna.'' Agreed Celestia.

''Traveler?!'' Gaped Luna, face red as a baboon's ass.

''You're cute, when you act like this.'' Giggled Celestia.

Traveler suddenly stopped. He stood still, his eyes fixed on the walls of the castle.

The two Princess stopped and looked back at him, a few stairs lower. ''Something's wrong?'' Raised an eyebrow Celestia.

Luna stopped blushing...

''I just realized, how right are you...'' He answered.

And here comes, another blushing Luna. Celestia giggled a bit louder and Traveler started walking down, again. Celestia soon followed and Luna just kept looking at him, mouth agape and face, fully red.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

The three immortal exited the ancient castle. The guards immediately surrounded the three. spears and spells ready.

''What a lovely greeting...'' The Spirit commented.

''There's no need to worry my little ponies! Drop your weapons, this battle is over!'' Spoke up Celestia.

The guards glanced at each other, but dropped their weapons.

''They sure dropped their weapons...'' Another comment from the Spirit.

The guards picked up their weapons and went back to their duty. What was their duty? Walking around aimlessly, looking at the ruins, keep an eye on the bipedal creature and secure the area. Pretty good job if you ask me...

The immortals approached Twilight and Shining Armor. They were sharing a brother-sister moment. Shining lying on a medical cart, while Twilight hugged him.

''What a mess...'' Commented Luna.

''Such destruction...'' Followed her example Celestia.

''Shining Armor did a great job.''

''Yes he did.'' Agreed with her sister Celestia.

They approached them. Shining noticed them and let go of Twilight. She had some tears in her eyes, but smiled at her mentor.

''Feel better?'' Asked Celestia.

''Yes Princess. The doctors did a good job, but I have to rest for a few days.'' Explained the captain.

''Diagnosis?'' Asked Twilight, wiping away the tears.

Shining glared at the Spirit. ''Deep cuts and bites all over my body. I have a broken hoof and the bruises on my head makes casting spells harder.'' He gritted his teeth and hissed. ''All because of-''

''You.'' Interrupted Traveler. ''I know what you think... Captain Shining Armor, from the Royal Guards.''

Shining relaxed his muscles on his face, but he kept glaring at him.

Traveler continued. ''I give you an advice. Make a collar for your sister. She could be hurt, if the Night Princess and I wouldn't protect them.''

He turned around and started walking away. Then he looked back, one last time.

''She saved your life. Feel honored and proud for her!''

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Keep an eye out Hunter!''

Traveler and his wildcat, Hunter, were walking back to Ponyville. The blue cat stayed low to the ground and looked to the left and right. His paws silently moving forward, while Traveler's boots made some hearable 'thum' sounds.

Suddenly, the cat turned around and hissed.

''Easy Hunter! They're not gonna hurt me.'' Traveler turned around and walked next to Hunter. He pet his cat's head to calm him down.

''Hey Traveler!'' Called out Rainbow Dash, as she flew in front of him.

''Hello!'' He greeted her calmly.

''Why did you leave so soon? You should seen Shining's face. Jeez, he was angry.'' Snickered Dash.

''I have no things to do there. And about the captain... let's leave him alone for a while...'' He turned around and continued walking.

Dash came face-to-face with the wildcat, who watched her every movement.

''Uh... Traveler? You're tiger is kinda scare me.''

''He's a wildcat and his name is Hunter.'' Called back Traveler.

''I don't want to know why you call him like this.'' Shook her head Dash and she flew around Hunter, to catch up with the Spirit.

''The girls arrive soon. I wanted to meet you sooner.'' Explained Dash.

''And why is that?'' Traveler kept facing forward.

''Because, that was sooo awesome!'' Exclaimed Rainbow Dash. ''They were like piff-puff-RAwwr! And than you pulled those awesome flips and swings and then they were like: 'DED'!'' And there, she acted like a dead animal for a second, then continued doing punches in the air.

Hunter's cat senses tingled...

''And Princess Luna looked so Bad-flank in that armor. I never seen her in to-''

Traveler interrupted her, by pushing her away and catching Hunter in the air. His paws relaxed and his talons retreated back, seeing his master in front of him, not the cyan, eye hurting colorful pegasi.

''I think it's time you take a break, Hunter.'' Informed the cat, Traveler.

His gauntlets glowed in blue and the flames from the wildcat got sucked into that mark. Then his entire body started fading away. When the process ended, two eyes shined on the gauntlets, then it died out. After that, a wildcat's face appeared on the gauntlets.

Traveler looked at the wide eyed Rainbow Dash. ''He's just trying to protect me. Don't worry about it!''

Rainbow just nodded and the girls caught up with them. Fluttershy hovering above a bouncing Pinkie Pie, while Rarity and Applejack trotted behind Twilight.

Twilight looked at Traveler carefully. ''What's going on now?''

''A Hunter is going on Twi, don't worry about it...'' Answered Rainbow Dash, grinning at Traveler.

Raising an eyebrow, Twilight and her friends, and of course, the Spirit continued walking back to town.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

They were out of the Everfree Forest and they kept walking down the road.

''Ah don't think we met yet pardner. Ah'm Applejack! Mah family has the best apples at Sweet Apple Acres, in all of Equestria.'' Applejack trotted next to Traveler.

''Good morning Apllejack, Element of Honesty!'' Greeted her Traveler. But he did not looked down at her.

''Mornin'?'' Asked Applejack, confused.

As an answer, Traveler pointed his finger at the rising sun. A chorus of 'ooh's and 'ahhh's came from the six friends.
Without a word, Traveler raised his hand. ''Map!'' And the purple eagle appeared in it's usual way.

Traveler looked at his map. ''The Everfree Forest... I still need to check out some parts of it. Thanks to this bypass, I have to go back there later. Great, more time to waist...'' He muttered to himself.

He turned back the map into Map. Fluttershy looked the eagle, with curiosity. She slowly flew next to the Spirit.

''Uhm... Excuse me sir. I-I just wanted to ask, i-if it's okay if I-I groom your eagle's feathers. B-because you, know... they look a bit dirty and-''

''Map is not a pet. He never grooms himself.'' Traveler looked at his eagle on his arm. Map extended his wings. ''Hmm... I want to prepare, so...'' He moved Map to Fluttershy's direction. ''I'll be thankful, if you prepare him too. Those feather's of his are really needs some grooming.''

''Eep!'' Yelped Fluttershy, as the huge eagle landed on her back. Map was bigger than an usual eagle. He could even lift her up, or cover her like a blanket, if he use his wings.

''Map! Don't forget to do what she says. She's here to help you. Permission to attack, denied. Only protect her! You hear me?'' Informed the flaming eagle, Traveler. ''Thank you Fluttershy... Element of Kindness!''

''Oh, i-it's nothing really. I love animals. I look after all kind of them.'' Blushed Fluttershy.

''All kind of animals, you say? Can you help out my other two companion?''

Fluttershy beamed. ''Yes, of course!''

''Very well...'' And with that, he summoned Sprint and Hunter. The green, flaming horse emerging from the ground. The wildcat jumping out of his gauntlets. Sprint neighed one and Hunter yawned.
''Listen my friends! Permission to attack: DENIED! Hunter! Sprint! Your new objective, to follow the Element of Kindness! She will help you two to prepare. To repay the favor, you all have to protect her!
Hunter! You're not going to hunt for a while. Stay with her, don't hurt her animals!
Sprint! I grant permission to you, to carry her. Wherever she want to go, you bring her there. No world and dimensional traveling! And do not use your sprinting ability!
Map! If she needs something, you find it and give it to her. No portal opening!
Now, do what you have to do!''

The three animals went to their own business. Which meant, Map flying above Fluttershy, Hunter walking next to her, staying low to the ground. And Sprint on the other side, trotting with her.

''Oh... my...''

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Hy Traveler!''

''I am a Spirit. Not a heartless humanoid. Please, don't do that next time!'' Traveler informed Pinkie Pie, who popped up next to him.

As Traveler tried to slow down his heart rate, Pinkie raised an eyebrow. ''But you're the main character in this story! Adam will revive you somehow...''

Traveler looked at her, face confused, head tilting backwards. ''What in the endless worlds are you talking about?''

''And there are your cool animals too. They can revive you as well. I still think it's kinda OP, but the readers haven't complained about it.''

Traveler helplessly looked at Twilight.

''She's Pinkie Pie. She has this... things like that. Don't worry about it!''

''That line is so overused! The author must be ran out of ideas... or of those burning paper things, that smells awful. *Sigh* he just can't stop smoking...'' Pinkie closed her eyes and shook her head.

''I'm still worried about her brain condition...'' Hung his head Traveler.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Hya Traveler! Before you start saying your line, I want to get over with mine. And that's a rhyme. Ahh Adam you should use your mind, because I can tell you good rhymes, for a good Zecora time! Yeah that's right! I owned you Dhuradhan!''

''But enough of this. This paper says, I have to ask you something, that Pinkie Pie would ask.'' She put away the paper. ''Weeeel thankfully, I AM Pinkie Pie, so this will be easy!'' She started bouncing up and down, Traveler's eyeballs following her every movement. ''Sooooooooooooooooo'' The girls started lowering their heads, waiting for Pinkie Pie, to finally stop saying 'so. HAH! That sentence was funneh!

''oooooooooo do you like cupcakes?'' She finally said and the girls moved around their necks, to stretch a bit, after this 'dramatic-head-lowering'.

''Cupcakes?'' Asked flatly, Traveler. He expected something more... important.

''Nonononono! Don't say that! The readers might misunderstand you. They will fill the comment section with pictures about me, being a murder! I would never bake Dashie...''

''Pinkie! What the hay!'' Exclaimed Rainbow Dash, really confused. That goes to the other four friends and the mindbucked Spirit too.

''Why is everypony uses 'hay' for swearing? Author, go have a smoke instead and think about something original!''

And while they were getting even more mindbucked...

... I went to have a cigarette...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Hey! We're here! Let's have a party, because every human-in-equestria story needs a: 'Welcome-To-Equestria-Party!''

''Element of Magic! I have two questions for you...'' Announced Traveler.

''You can call me by my name, you know?'' Deadpanned Twilight.

''Twilight Sparkle, Element of Magic! I have two questions for you...'' He repeated.

''*Sigh* The Traveling Horseman, or Traveling Spirit, Traveler... you shall ask your question!'' Twilight said, defeated.

''Are there any physical laws in this world?''

''Of course. Why wouldn't be?'' Now Twilight was confused.

''Just look at THAT!'' Exclaimed Traveler, pointing a finger at Pinkie Pie.

''Wheeee! I'm like that 'Dishonored' guy! *Whoos**Whoos*'' Pinkie cried out cheerfully, as she kept popping out from random directions.

''I don't see what is the problem...'' Blinked Twilight a few times.

''How interesting. I didn't know, that brains can melt...'' Commented sarcastically, Traveler.

''Everything is possible if I'm around, they said.''

''And now, she's on my shoulders. Popped out of nowhere, not caring about the basic physical laws, or gravity...'' Facepalmed Traveler.

''Author! You should use more swearing...'' Looked up Pinkie Pie at the sky.

''What is your second question, Traveler?'' Asked Twilight, like nothing strange happened.

''Is she possessed?'' Asked, really simply the Spirit.

''FINALLY? You asked it. Now we can move on. Ahem... I'm gonna throw you a party!'' Spoke up Pinkie Pie.

''I don't need a party...'' Deadpanned Traveler.

''But we must have a big party! I throw the best parties for everypony. And you're new in town, so I have to throw a welcome to Ponyville party. And this will be a MUCH, MUCH bigger party, because you're new in Equestria too! So this makes it even more FUN. And I love FUN. Why do I keep saying FUN in capslock?'' She said it, without taking a break.

''My answer is still no.'' Traveler tried to refuse her.

''Come ooon. Dhuradhan had a party too in the author's other story. You two should meet. The grammar still needs some work, but it's the author's first and biggest work. It has only a few views and it's sad to see him like this. And when somepony sad, auntie Pinkie Pie has to make them smile...'' The realization hit her like a brick.

''Wait... what is she gonna do?'' Traveler backed away from her. ''I faced down huge monsters, survived the human world, fought with armies of Followers. But she's seriously creeping me out...'' He thought.

''You haven't smiled in this story. And I just happened to LOVE making ponies smile...'' She started grinning. Grinning even more... holy shiet, her face's gonna split in half!

''I... am not a pony...'' Traveler kept backing away from her.

But it was too late...

The music already started playing in the background...

Well... that escalated quickly...
Next chapter will be takes more time. And school keeps forcing me back from writing. Seriously, they have the most unnecessary events, that I ever seen! Bucked up teachers...

Welcome to the crazy town of Ponyville! Where nothing makes sense...

''Hy everypony! How are ya today? Oh that's so nice. Me? Oh I had a great day! I think I scared Traveler a liiitle bit. I'm sorry for breaking the fourth wall that much. But I wanted to make Traveler confused. This is not gonna happen again, because our dimensions will melt together and something bad is gonna happen. And if something bad happens, then everypony will be sad and grumpy. So don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I'm Pinkie Pie after all.
But now, I have to make Traveler smile. Can you help me making him smile... or creeped out even more? Awww, thank you!
Now, sing with me everypony!''

____________________________________________________________________________________________________

The music in the background became louder and Pinkie started bouncing up and down. Traveler stared with wide eyes, not sure if something bad is going to happen.

Then the party pony started singing...

''My name is Pinkie Pie!''

''What the...?''

''And I am here to say...''

''What are you-?''

''I'm gonna make you smile and I will brighten up your day!''

''Where is the music come from?''

''It doesn't matter now!''

''What?''

''Just sing along with me!''

''No way!''

''Then I call my friends to help so we can cheer you up!''

''Why you-?!''

'''Cause you never smiled in this fic!''

''Yes I did! Wait, what?!''

''It fills your heart with sunshine all the while!''

''No it doesn't!''

'''Cause all you really need's a smile, smile, smile! From these happy friends of mine!''

And there... EVERYPONY POPPED UP OUT OF NOWHERE AND STARTED SINGING!

Traveler had enough and started running away. ''IT MAKES NO SENSE!'' He thought and looked back...

JUST TO SEE A SMILING AND SINGING AND TROTTING MOB, FOLLOWING HIM!

''WHAT DO YOU WANT?!''

''I'd love to see you grin!''

''LEAVE ME ALONE!''

''I want to make you beam!''

''GET LOST!''

''When the corners of your mouth turn up, then we might let you beeaaeeeah!'' Sang the crowd. ''Brohoof!'' And everypony brohoofed, while they kept trotting after Traveler. It looked a bit funny, because they did like it's nothing with those legs.

AND IT WAS AN ABSOLUTELY EPIC BROHOOF SHARING!

''But if you kind of worried!''

''I AM WORRIED!''

''Then you should stop running!''

''NEVER!''

''Come on we-e worked so hard to get, all of Po-nie-ville!''

Traveler looked back as he heard the crowd really close. They didn't even ran after him. They were just trotting happily behind him.

Traveler wasted no time, turned towards a smaller house. He ran up on it's walls and pulled himself up. There, he laid on his back and tried to catch his breath. He could still hear the music as it soon started the next part of the song.

SUDDENLY THE PONIES JUST PULLED THEMSELVES UP ON THE ROOFS! AS THEY SAW HIM, THEY STARTED THE NEXT VERSE AND TROTTED TOWARDS HIM.

Traveler immediately stood up and started running away from the singing mob.

''WHY DON'T YOU JUST GO HOME?!''

'''Cause I'l love to make grin, grin, grin!''

''NO, YOU DON'T!''

''Yes we do!''

''Busted out from ear to ear, let it began!''

''NO!''

''Just give me joyful grin, grin, grin! And we stop this silly chase!''

''I have to get out of here! I need to find the Element of Kindness.'' Thought Traveler and looked up. ''This is insane, it's... OH LORD NO! THEY BROUGHT SOME NEW FRIENDS TOO!'' There were some pegasi approaching too.

In front of him, a grey pegasus mare flew towards him. Her eyes were crossed and she had a silly grin on her face.
Traveler kept running towards her. He had to time that right or else...

Just before they crash into each other, he crouched down. The mare flew over him, while he dropped to the ground. He heard a loud crash and a mare saying 'My bad.' .
He made some noise too, as he landed on some boxes and rubbish in a dark alley. The music became quieter and some of the ponies jumped over the alley, leaving our hero alone.

''Phew...'' He sighed in relief.

''It's true, some days are dark and lonely...''

''AH!''

''But even you feel scared, then Pinkamena is here to show this isn't what you think it is...''

Traveler narrowed his eyes to see what is she doing. *SLINK* He heard a knife, brushing against something metal object. He then saw a silhouette. It was Pinkie Pie, with a fork 'n knife. (Haha! Fork 'n knife? It's the name of a song. You should check it out here! It's really good...)

''There's one thing I want to tell you and makes this whole fic complee-te! And that's when I say the famous word CUPCAKES!''

Traveler's horrified face returned. ''BACK OFF!''

''I'm really am so sorry!''
''I just have to say this!''
''I say cupcakes, you show cupcakes!''
''And that's okay for me!''

SUDDENLY THE MUSIC BECAME LOUDER. PONIES BOUNCED TROUGH THE HOUSES AND LANDED ON THE GROUND.

And Traveler just ran...

'''Cause I just love to see you beam, beam, beam!'' Pinkie appeared next to Traveler, then disappeared and reappeared on his other side. ''(Yes I do!)''

''AAAAAHHHH!''

''Tell me what more can I do to make you iiinsane?!'' Pinkie jumped up on traveler's shoulders.

''GET OFF ME! AAAHHH!''

''It makes me happy when you scream, scream, scream!''
''This means I did it weeee-el!''

She jumped off from his shoulders and landed beside him.

''Come on everypony smile, smile, smile!''
''Fill his heart up with sunshine, sunshine!''
''AlI we really need's a smile, smile, smile!''
''For my scared friend of mine!''

''Come on everypony smile, smile, smile!''
''Fill his heart up with sunshine,sunshine!''
''All we really need are smiles, smiles, smiles!''
''For her scared friend of heee-ers!''

Everypony happily joined. Windows opened, shops' doors opened and even the nearby Royal Guards started singing. (Standing still, with blank faces of course...) They even stopped following Traveler...

''Yes the perfect scare for hiiiim!''
(''Come on everypony smile, smile, smile!'')
''Is a random musical heeere!''
(''We make a musical heeere!'')
''To lose his mind easilyyyyy!''
(''We creeped him away easilyyyy!'')
''Smile, smile, smile, smile, smiiiiiile!''
''Come on and smile!''
''Come on and smile!''

.
.
.

Dead silent fell upon the town, as everypony kept their epic finishing pose. At least everypony smiled...

''He disappeared...'' Said somepony from the crowd.

''I think he liked it!'' A mint green unicorn mare, commented happily.

''Should we worry about him Miss Pie?'' Asked a Royal Guard, as he released himself, from the group-hoof-lock.

''Ahhh, he is fine. I know where he went.'' Answered Pinkie, waving a hoof.

''Well, that moment has passed. Back to work!'' And the two royal guard went back to their posts.

As everypony moved away, continuing their own business, Pinkie started trotting out of the town.

''That... was... EPIC!''

And that is Pinkie Pie... and Ponyville for you.
I'm sorry for the previous chapter. I wanted to prepare traveler for that... event, song or I don't know what that was. I read trough the previous one and I saw, how unnecessary was that. I'm not gonna delete it, but don't worry! There will be no stupid chapter like that. Those jokes were mistakes.
Again sorry and have a nice day!

Memories of the Past

Traveler stopped running. He made sure those ponies won't follow him and continued walking. Always looking behind, he thought about his animals.

''So... If I remember well, she went this way. I hope I'm right. Without Map, I'm lost in this damn world...'' He thought.

He felt a bit nervous. He always had his animals with him. He could always look at his map, escape with Sprint and defend himself with Hunter. But now, they were having some useful treatment, that they deserved. The many fights they went through, the non-stop traveling. Sure, they were travelers, but sometimes they have to just sit down, have a rest and have some fun.

Fun... he never had fun. Not like he wants to try it out. He had enough fun in the past. Many years ago. He kinda felt embarrassed, because of his past self. Those little 'holidays' in different and exotic worlds. The great kings, queens, princesses and leaders he met. The ceremonies, where he had a great time, with other great spirits like him.

And not just talk and revel with those big souls. The many interesting creatures. They culture. They history. They...

courting...

''Hehhee... Minerva... you beautiful, young lady. Who would have thought, that the Leader of the Elves likes to do such things.'' He chuckled at the good memory.

He continued thinking about the good old days. He didn't even realize what tune he was humming. It was a really catchy and happy tune...

He checked behind him, when he realized what kind of tune was he hearing. He saw no one. ''Hm? I could hear that pink ones song playing.'' He turned his head forward and continued walking down the dirt road. ''Those ponies are crazy. They song is still playing in my head...''

He continued humming the happy tune. His mind started to catch up with him. His eyes suddenly went wide, when the realization hit him, like a magical shot...

He was humming that song's tune...

''You got to be kidding me! It's following me! Nooo!''

And there ran our hero...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Somewhere outside Ponyville... Pinkie Pie stopped and started grinning. She slowly lifted her hoof into the air...
Then she took a deep breath and slowly said:

''Success...''

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Traveler finally arrived at the Element of Kindness' little house. He paid no attention to the strange building. He ran up to the door, animals giving him an odd look.

He slammed into the door, nearly blasting it away from it's place. ''Element of Kindness! Where are you?!'' He yelled, his voice was scared and urgent.

If the door slamming against the wall, wasn't enough to attract attention, then his voice was. Because Fluttershy poked her head inside the room, smiling at him.

''Oh! Hello Traveler. Hunter told me about your arrival. Please follow me!''

Traveler was confused. he didn't expected her to be calm. He thought she would be scared of him, because he literally breaking into her house. ''I guess that's my luck... Thank you Hunter!''

He followed Fluttershy. She was mixing some sort of green cream. It smelled like menthol and it was sticky. ''I was just making this nice cream for the animals. It cools down the burning muscles, relaxes the brain and heals the wounds at the same time. My own recipe...'' She explained proudly, then led him upstairs.

She let him inside the bathroom and his jaw dropped...

There was Hunter. Calmly taking a nap, while Map sat on his head. They all looked so clean, refreshed and friendly. Hunter's breathing was peaceful. It was new for Traveler. That wildcat was always ready and he never actually seen him breathing calmly. Hunter's breathing was so quick and quiet, so he could be stealthy.

And there he was. The air escaping through his sharp teeth. His teeth, they looked snow white. And Traveler swear, his wildcat's mouth was turned upwards. ''Hunter? Is he... smiling? How is that even possible?! He's a wildcat... they can't show facial expressions!'' He thought.

''They really enjoy this therapy. Map showed no resistant, to get his feathers washed. While Hunter was a bit nervous to get into the bath. But I told him to calm down and everything will be good.''

''I even pulled that stick out of his paw...''

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Flashback!

''There you go Map! Now your feathers will shine, when you fly. You look nice.'' Fluttershy patted the eagle's head.
''Oh Hunter! Don't worry, I get this stick out of your paw. Just don't move, this will only sting for the tiniest moment...'' She told the wildcat. Hunter remembered what his master said. Do as she says! So he showed her his paw and let her do her work.

...
*Ping*
''RAAAAAAAAWR!'' Hunter raised his claw to hit her...

Then he started purring and licking Fluttershy's face...

''Now, now... that wasn't so bad, was it?'' She giggled.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

And back to Traveler...

Traveler was impressed. He expected his animals to be a huge problem for her. And there she was, everything is under her control. No disaster, no dead critters or burned down house. And all of them was there.

Except one...

''Where is Sprint?'' He asked her, somewhat worried. ''Please tell me he didn't go to another dimension. It took me a lot of time, to find him, when he just ran away...''

''He's in the backyard. He's having fun with the deers and other animals.'' She answered cheerfully, taking care of the other animals, with that cream.

''Well that's a relief...'' He said quietly.

Suddenly, Map screeched and flew downstairs...

''Where is that eagle going?'' Asked out loud Traveler.

''He wants us to follow him...'' Explained Fluttershy and she went after Map. Traveler soon followed her, still confused.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''I can understand the animals. What they want to say, how are they feeling. They are the best company...''

Fluttershy explained to Traveler, about her ability, while they went outside.

''I agree...'' Replied Traveler.

Fluttershy arrived at the back of the house. Traveler was just about see what's there, when she gasped and stopped him.

''What?''

''Sssshhh... don't interrupt them!'' Fluttershy said quietly.

''Interrupt what?''

''Interrupt nature.'' She answered. ''Let's just go back and let them have fun.'' She smiled and walked back where they came from.

Traveler wanted to see what is happening and peeked into the backyard. There he saw Sprint, lying on his side, while nuzzling a female deer. Other female deers were lying around him and he looked pleased.

Traveler quickly went after Fluttershy, trying hard to forget what he just witnessed. But he couldn't forget the thought of his companion, just got laid in front of his eyes.

And soon... he started grinning like your best friend, when he/her discovers your new crush...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Inside the house...

''Hy Traveler!''

''AHH!'' Cried out the spirit and dived behind Fluttershy. ''Don't let her close to me!''

''But Traveler, it's not the best time to play hide and seek. I'm here to talk to my two friends.'' Explained Pinkie Pie.

''Oh... that's so nice of you Pinkie...'' Fluttershy commented, happy to see her friend.

''LIES! She's going to drive me crazy!'' Called out traveler, still hiding behind the little pegasi.

''She ain' lyin' sugarcube.'' Applejack trotted inside the living room. ''Pinkie just wants ta see her friends smile...'' She smiled at her friends and him.

''No... no... nonono! You're gonna start singing too! NO!'' Traveler jumped over the girls and was about to ran out of the door, when a purple aura rudely shut the door in front of him. He was knocked out in a second.

The girls looked up and saw the door reopening and in walked their purple, unicorn friend. ''He seriously needs to stop and think...'' Twilight stated, happy to say that to him, like he said this to her last time. Now, they're equals...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Traveler slowly woke up. He heard the girls in the room. The six Elements were sitting in the living room, chatting about things. He decided to just lay there and wait, until the headache stops. And maybe, the others leave, so he can be alone...

But Rainbow Dash started looking over his stuff. Especially his bow...

''How the hay can he use that?'' She looked at the bow, with raised eyebrows.

He sighed. ''Looks like I have to wake up...'' He sat up and looked over to her. ''With hands, Elements of Loyalty.'' He answered her question.

Rainbow Dash jumped slightly. JUST SLIGHTLY, we're talking about Rainbow Dash! She quickly dropped the bow and pretended innocent. ''Ah, hey Traveler! I, uh... just saw that thing on your stuff and I-I was just curious about it.'' Sh grinned sheepishly.

''It's a bow and it's dangerous...'' He stood up and walked over to her. He picked up the bow and some arrows. ''Follow me! I show you...''

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

They walked to the edge of Everfree Forest. Since Fluttershy's animals probably afraid of him and Sprint still have some ladies to satisfy, they walked far away from the house.

''And what is that thing can do?'' Asked the cyan pegasi, eager to know about the dangerous weapon.

''This thing is a bow-''

''You already said that. What can it do? You hit stuff and that's it? Looks odd...'' Frowned Rainbow.

''This weapon, can shoot arrows, at fast speed. The arrows are made to be strong and have this form...'' He showed her how the arrow looks like. '' ... to cut through the air. The point of the arrow, sticks into anything, that can be penetrated with the amount of power you use. The arrow gets more power, when you pull the string harder. You have to steady your hands and aim at the...'' He realized what he said. ''Sorry... hooves... Anyway, you aim, slows down your heartbeat and shut your mind. With this trick, you can focus on your target, so you can easily shoot it down.''

''There are other ways, to shoot perfectly. It's more complicated way, but works every time. You have to know how heavy is your arrow, know how much gravity force are there in the area and how much power you give into one shot. I even remember that book where it explains how to get every information about these things and...'' And he explained to Rainbow Dash, how to find out, how much force the arrow gets, how far it flies, how much gravity are there, without using measure tapes and stuff. So basically, he told her everything he found in the 'NewTomes InterDimensional Physics Recordings' by Newtomes, the Spirit of Physics.

''And that's when his 56, 2 law appears. According to his recordings, he-...'' *Thud* He looked at the now sleeping Rainbow Dash. ''Girl, you're good. I thought you will be out sooner...'' He said quietly and picked her up.

He started walking back to the house and realized how late it was. It already became night and the lights were out in Fluttershy's house. He risked to see if Sprint was still having fun. To his luck he wasn't, so he placed Rainbow Dash beside the big horse and he leaned against Sprint.

He closed his eyes, to take some rest and shut his mind. Even if he couldn't sleep, he can shut down his body and relax like everyone of us...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Traveler opened his eyes, as he felt the presence of somepony powerful. With one swift move, he attached his claws to his gauntlets and placed it under a hooded Alicorn's neck. The female, midnight colored Alicorn froze in place and Traveler examined her. He couldn't see her face, the robe's hood hid her whole head. He only saw two, glowing, scared eyes and white teeth.

He slowly grabbed the hood and carefully slid it back, revealing the Princess of the Night...

''Have you ever heard about knocking?'' Traveler asked sarcastically.

Luna sheepishly giggled...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

The two left the resting horse and the sleeping Rainbow Dash. They decided to go on a walk, far away from Fluttershy's house. They walked in silence for a while. Then Luna had enough of the walking.

''Can you fly? The night is more beautiful above the clouds...'' Asked Luna.

''No, but if you allow me to ride you, then we can fly wherever you want...'' Replied Traveler.

Luna's face became crimson red. ''Wh-what... are you? I... I-I mean...'' She couldn't find the words to reply to that.

''Something's wrong? Did I said something offensive?'' He raised an eyebrow. He had no idea what is up with these ponies and they being embarrassed about everything.

''Well... no... it's just... I thought we are only partners. Not mates... and... and it was a long time ago, since a stallion tried to court me... let alone...'' She gulped. '' trying to... mount... me...'' She stammered, face turning even more red, as she tried to force these words out.

Traveler's mind raced. He started to place the two together. Every piece started to form the answer. Then finally... he got it.
He broke the awkward silence...

''Oh, for the love of Spiritual elders and all of their great tome! I am deeply sorry Night Princess. I had no idea about these meanings. I apologize...'' He nodded.

Luna nodded back and her blush disappeared. ''It is nothing to be concerned Traveler. You had no idea about these things...''

''But it was obvious. Ponies don't use horses to travel. Other creatures do. If my mind would be the same. Young and fresh, I would probably realize this.'' He explained.

''Aren't you an immortal? Your mind should be the same...'' Asked curiously the Princess.

''Yes... I am an immortal and-... wait! You said 'you' instead of 'tho'...'' He looked at her, trying to find out what happened to the formal Princess.

''Oh... well... my sister told me to let go of the formalities, since my mission is over.'' She explained.

''Mission? You mean, when you had to bring me to Canterlot?'' He asked her, starting to understand the situation.

Luna nodded. ''Yes. So that's why I'm talking more freely.'' She looked at him, smiling. ''And friends are talking to each other like this...''

Traveler 'hummed' and allowed himself a small smile. ''I see...''

They arrived at a hill, that looked over the wide, flower fields. The place, where he first stepped into Equestria. Luna sat down on the hill and Traveler laid down next to her, looking at the constellations.

''So... what did you mean by... 'your mind would be the same'?'' Asked Luna.

Traveler stayed silent for a few moments. Then thinking over what he wanted to say, he began...

''Before I started my search, for a place to fall into eternal slumber, I lived my eternal life freely. They called me Traveler, because I went to other dimensions and worlds. But not to find that sleeping place. I had fun. A lot. I met with other Spirits like me. Every one of them have a special talent, ability and special powers. They get their titles from these...''

''I spent my first years with my animals. I had to learn my powers on my own. I did research, to find out who I really am and what powers I possess. I soon learned how to travel through these portals, that Map and Sprint can open. At first, I only traveled and ran away from worlds, if the citizens and inhabitants were not so friendly.''

''Later, the Followers started to attack me. And I needed something to protect myself. I made my armor, weapons and tore apart Map's soul. That's how Hunter became my third companion...
I was able to defend myself and survive. And I became braver, to travel to more dimensions.''

''That's when I started to meet with other Spirits. I helped another horseman, to find his brother. Death... that was his name.
I helped out The Great King Spirit, when his world and kingdom was in trouble.
I fought with the Beasts Leader and I obtained it's claws.
An other Horseman, War... he was kind enough to help me defeat an army of Followers. He even made my ultimate weapon. He taught me how to use those blades and I was on my way to another world.
After I became stronger, I led the human world's protector through the Bridge of Memories. They called him Dhuradhan or Dhanthas, but as everyone know him... The Balance...''

''I soon became well known amongst the immortals. Heh... some of them even invited me to their wedding or other celebrations...
Alywa, the most charming girl... I think they called her... The Entice. She was searching for The Balance back then, when the Ruler of the Hell died by his hands. She needed someone else, to fulfill her desires, since she used to be with the Ruler of the Hell. Then... she found me, to ease herself...
And there was Minerva. The Leader of the Elves. She has some strange fetishes...''

''But the point is... I enjoyed life. I had everything I wanted. But I soon had enough. My immortality became... boring I think. But that's not just it. I saw many dimensions and worlds being destroyed in front of my eyes. The Followers did it, because they wanted to kill me. And while they tried to find me, they killed the inhabitants of those worlds...

... or I killed them...''

Luna listened in interest. He had so much to say, so exiting life and he just wants to end it. And his last sentence...

''You... killed them... why?''

''It was because they left me no choice. They were too dangerous, to just leave them. They were planning on destroying other worlds. I had to stop them.
But in the end... it was just sad, to see a world, being destroyed by my and others hands. That's why I want to stop this. Maybe... a few thousand years later, I'll wake up and continue traveling...''

Traveler placed his hands behind his head. ''Now tell me... you make those beautiful constellations up there on your own?'' He smirked at her. He know she will gladly talk about the night. And... ''I know she likes to make the night beautiful. Might as well give her some credit. As long as she's happy... well... I don't really know... Hehhe, I'm like my past self.''

Luna's eyes gleamed with glee and she happily started explaining the various constellations...

Good to be back again. Sorry for the waiting, I had another story, that I had to take care of. You probably saw that in the feature box. Man, I made a big mess, by writing it...

From now, I try to not get distracted with other ideas. I'm just gonna continue with this story.
Schools starts to become harder, so don't expect me to write that much. This one, was a 'comeback' chapter. I spent my whole day, writing it...

Also, some of you might notice some references from my other story and something else. I wonder who will find it... :P

There will be one last chapter and the new adventure begins. This means, I have to think about more ideas, more dialogue and action. CHALLENGE BUCKING ACCEPTED! >:D

As a little side note, I found my family's long ago bought from Austria, black bow, with arrows. This will help me with the fighting scenes... and maybe I can shoot someone down. XD

Thanks for the patients and have a nice day! ;)

Departure

The sun's rays shone upon Rainbow's face. She groaned and turned away from the bright light. Burying her face into the soft pillow, she made herself more comfortable. For some reason, her pillow was larger and a bit solid. But soft at the same time. ''I have the best pillows in all of Equestria.'' She thought and drifted back to sleep.

Or more like... she wanted to do that, but her pillow did some movement and she had to readjust herself. But her pillow had other plans and moved away from her. She hit her on the ground. ''Wait... ground? Is that... grass?''

She opened her eyes and looked around. She recognized the Everfree Forest and Fluttershy's backyard. But she did not know why she was there. ''What am I actually slept on?'' She asked herself and looked at her living pillow.

There they were. Traveler leaning against Sprint, who was lying on his side, exposing his belly for her. Traveler had his arms crossed and his hood up, to cover his face. Sprint's head was raised and he was looking at her.

''What the buck?'' Asked Rainbow, totally confused.

Two heads raised and turned to her. Hunter was by her side and yawned at her, showing his white and blade sharp teeth.
Map landed on Traveler's head and he just kept looking at her, waiting her next move.

''What. The. Buck?'' She repeated.

''How is that even possible to you, to smell like some spicy food?''

''GAH!''

Rainbow stumbled away from Traveler's side. He raised his head and Map choose Sprint's head to sit on.
The four traveler started at her, like nothing happened at all.

''Did I... drank too much cider?'' She asked, hoping to Celestia to save her from the awkward situation.

''No, you fell asleep, while I gave you a lecture about Newtomes Physical Laws. I put you amongst us to sleep. Meanwhile, I spent the night with the Night Princess. After I had my own fun, I came back and saw how much fun you have. So I joined.'' Traveler's eyes widened. ''Come ooon... I'm talking like the Element of Laughter.''

Rainbow on the other hand/hoof, was trying her best not to blush. ''Did we? No... we didn't do that... did we?'' She tried to calm down, but she had no idea what happened.

''What did we do last night?'' She asked and hoped for a good answer.

''Slept together... did you know that you're pretty messy while you sleep? Look at my trousers! See? It's sticky. And look at Sprint's side! Fluttershy just groomed and washed him and now he has some sticky liquid on his rear.'' Told her Traveler.

Rainbow was blushing. She had no idea what she did last night and she didn't even drink anything.

''You have some on your mouth too.'' Pointed at her Traveler. And sure enough, some sticky liquid was on her mouth.

She quickly wiped it away with a hoof. She shut her eyes, blushing furiously. After some moment, she opened them and said. ''Don't tell me I had a groupen with you guys!'' She blurted out.

Traveler was taken aback. He wanted to say 'no', but after a night with Luna, he kinda fell back into his old self. He wanted to prank her, but after some thoughts, he remained with an expectable reaction.

''What?''

''You know... doing it with more than one pony...'' Rainbow tried to find a good answer.

''Explain please?'' Traveler kept a neutral face, pretending like he has no idea about this stuff.

Rainbow closed her eyes again and she looked like someone, who's straining herself. In her head, she was fighting with that little voice, that told her to just say it. But she wanted to stay cool and awesome.

But she failed anyway...

''Did we have sex?! For Celestia, please say we didn't do it! Or at least I didn't do it with you!''

The other four stared at her for several moments. After waiting, just enough before Rainbow's head explodes, he spoke up.

''No.''

Rainbow sighed in relief. ''Okay... phew. I'm still cool.''

''Oh and Rainbow?''

''Hm?''

''I'm not his mate...'' Traveler nodded towards Sprint. ''So don't worry, you still have your chance with him.'' He smiled at her, like he's happy to share this with her.

And Rainbow became red again and looked over to Sprint...

And the horse winked at her...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''It's good to see you interested in my work, darling!'' Said Rarity, as Traveler was leaving her house. ''Come back anytime you need something new. Oh! And good luck on your way!'' She called after him.

Traveler turned around to look at her. ''It's good to see you looking at me as an ordinary costomer Element of Generosity. And making my new clothes for free? You helped me a lot and I'm thankful.'' He turned slightly and put his hand on top of Sprint, ready to hop onto his ride. ''I wish you a successful future!'' And he sat on top of the horse.

''Oh, it's nothing.'' Rarity waved her hoof. ''That's what friends for.''

Traveler stopped for a moment. He thought for a few seconds. Does he want to argue with her, about being friends and all this things? He shrugged and allowed himself a smile. ''Go Sprint!''

As he was riding out of Ponyville, the citizens gave him strange stares, but they continued minding their own business. Because they already saw strange things. And stallion riding on a stallion is so natural...

''I'm on a horse.''

''What took you so long? I expected you to appear sooner.''

''I waited for the right time... I'm on an OC.''

''I'm leaving so please, Element of Laughter... get off me!''

''But what about the welcome party? You have to stay, you can't leave the audience hanging there! They expect a party, so give them one!''

Traveler decided not to question her. ''Maybe when I come back.''

''IF you come back.''

''What was that?''

''Nothing...''

And the ponies went from confused, to absolute mind bucked, when they saw the three riding out of Ponyville.

Traveler slowed down at the edge of Ponyville. ''Go back!'' He told her.

Pinkie shook her head. ''I don't want to. The adventure will be more exiting, if I go with you.''

''The adventure will be more risky, if you come with me. Now go back, I have to leave.'' Traveler explained, still looking forward.

Pinkie crossed her hooves and pouted. ''Nope!'' And turned away from him.

Traveler leaned close to Sprint's ears. ''Come on Sprint! Show her how fast can you run!''

''OH NO I FORGOT ABOUT THIS PART!''

And Sprint started sprinting, leaving a green trail and green, flaming hoof marks on the road. Pinkie landed on the ground. Like a cat, she used her unnatural powers, to coordinate herself in the air. She did an epic pose, like she's about to fight, but quickly came back to her role and started bouncing back to Ponyville.

''And not a single buck was given...'' She said happily.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Sprint slowed down and continued just running. Traveler already summoned Map and his scroll, to look at his own map. He had a really big area, already revealed on his map. Lot of cities and forests. Road systems, fields and mountains.
They weren't that detailed, since he or Map haven't seen those. The map only showed, which one is where. ''I'll go to these later...''

In front of him, Canterlot. He was a few hundred meters away. The towers and the gate were clear in sign. The guards were visible, as they did their patrol.
But none of them stopped The Traveling Horseman...

His scroll started shining in purple and his map showed only the city, nothing else. As Map above him was flying, the city started to show more streets and buildings. Then finally, the castle...

He kept riding towards the two, big, golden doors. Not bothered by the lot of snob and nobel ponies, giving him disgusted, scared or angry stares, as Sprint dodged them.

Suddenly, a cart appeared in front of him, pulled by a poor, farmer pony. He jumped over it, by Sprint disappearing and then he summoned him back again on the other side of the cart. He landed on his horse and continued riding.

More ponies blocked his way, so he made Sprint disappear again and he jumped onto the roofs. That's where he approached the castle doors.

From a higher roof, he landed in front of the doors, skipping the long staircase, which was too big to climb. For some reason, the doors were fully open, so he summoned Sprint and rode to the Princess.

Celestia smiled at him as he approached her. He jumped off his horse and Sprint disappeared again.

''Sun Princess! I came here to tell you two things!'' He started. ''First, I'm leaving! Second... your security is under a frog's breech!''

As he said that totally seriously, Celestia just looked at him confused. ''Traveling Horseman! First, I wish you a good luck! Second... you're allowed in Canterlot. Don't be surprised!''

''Then I have nothing left to say and to stay for...'' He was about to turn and leave...

''And where are you going?'' Asked Celestia.

Traveler slowly turned to her...

He thought for a few seconds...

Then...

''North... to the Crystal Mountains...''

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Later that day, Celestia received an urgent report. A Royal Guard was sent to find Shining Armor and his wife. Then the Princess sent Twilight and her friends, to take care of the problems.
Luna wanted to go too. She wanted to help the girls and fight next to Traveler.

After Celestia talked some sense into her sister, the two Alicorns looked over to the Crystal Mountains...

Hoping for Traveler, to bump into the girls and help them...

''He must figure this out... or the Empire will fall...''

Here's the goodbye chapter. Not for forever of course, but for a while. Why? I have four really bucking good reasons...
School exams are coming. Before we go to holiday, we have to write a shit load of tests and a few exams. If i pass them, I can continue learning in that school. (One of the best school in Hungary actually, so i have to learn a lot.)

And the other thing is... I need the holiday winter's snow. I think I gave you a really good hint up there. When the winter comes, the snow too. So that will give me the best mood to write the next chapters.

And i have some other stories, that needs some new stuff...

I'm also going to a hungarian brony meeting, before christmas. A Hearts Warming Eve party... after the end of the world. Yeah... I will record the best parts and try to brohoof everyone there. I probably put the video up and gave you all the link. Heh, I can already see myself talking in Hungarian to the others, then I point the camera at myself and start talking in English. Everyone will be like: ''What the buck is that guy doing?''

On another note, my right hand suffered some injury. Long story short, shooting with my new bow, climbing a harsh tree and fighting outside in the snow, with bare hands is not a good idea. My skin is red and rough and kinda stings. So writing kinda hurts with that. But if I get used to that stinging feeling, I will be up to writing normally again. Right now, my hand needs to be bandaged, so the skin grows back... goddess, I'm so bucked up! XD

So see you guys and girls a few weeks later and have a fantastic day!

Listen to this, as you watch winter's first snow drops...

Through The Snow

The colorful train from Ponyville was going through the snow. It's whistle could be heard from the distance and it's faint light on the front illuminated the rail, which the train was rolling on. The snowdrops were falling down peacefully, giving that nice winter mood to the passengers on the train.

The mane six was looking outside the windows, chatting about Twilight's 'test' and enjoyed the ride. Their cabin was separated from the others, which was illuminated with the lanterns above them. (Which was impossible, since only one lantern can light up every corner of the room, no matter what was in the light's way...)

Twilight sat alone from time to time, wondering about this dangerous situation. The girls tried to cheer her up, saying that everything will be fine and they will help her. But she was concerned about her brother and Cadance. She thought Equestria was safe again, since the changelings got defeated by the Power of Love.

''The Power of Love... Traveler, you fool. You have no idea how powerful can be the love.'' She thought, sighing. She remembered, when she told this to Traveler. He just snorted and didn't believe her...

And as she was thinking about that, a familiar horseman appeared in the distance...

''Traveler!'' She yelled.

''Where?!'' Rainbow Dash knocked her away from the window and soon, all the girls were watching him.

He was riding along the train, a few hundred meters away. Rarity watched in awe, as his new clothes made him look 'fabulous', as she told him.
She polished his talismans and runes and gave him a new attire...
He wore a thick, blue robe and on his back, a crimson cape covered his upper body. She gave him a new scarf too. Longer and thicker, so he can use it as a mask too. And he actually did that, since the girls couldn't see anything from his mouth and nose...
His backpack changed too. Instead of a brown backpack, he was wearing a black one. He also asked her, if she can make the pockets inside more organized. The outcome, is a satisfied customer, along with a comfortable and big backpack. The cape covered the backpack from the snow and it looked less heavy.
He gave her some leather and she made him gloves under the gauntlets, so his fingers were covered too and he can easily grasp anything.
From the same leather, she made him a better belt and new pouches around his waist. The belt was black and the pouches remained brown, but more durable.
Instead brown, he was wearing black trousers. It's new pockets came handy for him, since he also carried smaller things around. And in his backpack were the bigger stuff.
Since the robe wasn't covering fully his front, she made him a dark red sweater. The robe's front side was connected from his chest and got separated from his waist, so his legs can move freely. This gave the robe's front side a 'V' shape and an upside down 'V' shape...
Thanks to this 'V' shape, he could also pull out his claws, from under the robe. The two weapon could be only seen from the front. So from behind him and next to him, the two claws weren't visible.
The trousers ends were behind the brown boots. The boots reached his knee and there was also a strap on the sides, for two knifes.
His shoulder plates were new too. The right shoulder plate was slightly curved upwards, while the left one remained straight for his bow.
And his hood. The top of it had a narrowed shape. Rarity wanted to make it look like an eagle's beak and since he had an eagle, she made the hood narrow on the end. That also meant, that his face was fully covered from both sides, from above and from behind...

When he was leaving, he gave her lot of bits and only when he stepped out from her boutique, told her how he got leather and where it came from. That day, Rarity woke up on the floor and she was pretty angry about him.

''Even if he made me work with LEATHER, he looks fascinating in these clothes.'' She said out loud.

''Yo' were lying there all day sugarcube.'' Told her Applejack, forcing back a chuckle.

''Why yes of course. I have never worked with such material. How did I supposed to know where he get those?'' She shivered and felt bad for praising the material, when she was working with it.

They kept watching him riding. As Rainbow looked at Sprint, the big horse winked at her, before Traveler pulled to the right, riding away from the girls sign.

''Why ar' ya blushin' Rainbow?'' Asked Applejack.

Rainbow shook her head quickly. ''What, I wasn't blushing. What are you talking about AJ?''

Applejack just kept looking at her, with a knowing grin. ''Ah believe you sugarcube.''

''Dashie has a crush on Sprint!'' Cried out Pinkie Pie, making Rainbow jump in surprise.
The girls are all 'Daaaw' -ed...

''Wh-what?! I don't have a crush on him!'' Rainbow protested, crossing her hooves.

''It's alright Rainbow. Ah think he is a pretty strong fellah. Yo' should tell him 'bout yo' feelings. Ah'm sure he will like you.'' Patted Rainbow's shoulder AJ.

''Applejack darling! You too?'' Gasped Rarity. ''My, my. I did not imagine you two to like him. But you're right darling. He really is a good looking fellow.'' She giggled.

''What 'bout yo' Twiligh'?'' Asked Applejack.

''I have to agree with you girls too.'' She smiled sheepishly.

''Great!'' Rainbow cried out, failing her hooves in the air. ''Who else wants to admit her feelings?''

''Fluttershy darling!'' Rarity looked at the yellow pegasus.

''Oh... my.'' She blushed too.

And the girls started arguing about the sexy horse, who stole the five mares heart. Even if none of them fell in love with him, they still thought he was the sexiest stallion in the world.

While Rainbow was trying to convince her friends about 'not liking him' , Rarity asked Fluttershy about him, since she groomed and took care of him last time. Twilight tried to come up with a logical explanation, about why do they found Sprint so attractive. And Applejack praised the horse's muscles and mused about inviting him to buck some apples and something else...

And Pinkie Pie...
She was sitting in an armchair. A gentleman hat on her head (Or in this case a gentlemare hat.) and on one of her eyes a rich glass, with a golden necklace. She was smoking from a lady cigarette. (Really thin and doesn't have that much tobacco in it. Oh and it burns away faster...)
And she was pleased by the scene in front of her. The small chaos she made by one sentence and everything just made her do a 'trollface' like grin.

''Trolling everyday... Hey author, this stuff is pretty good actually. Now I know why you like it.''

I knew you will like it Pinkie.

''Now keep writing this. You made your readers wait for too long. They want the badflank Traveler NOW.''

Oh, uhm... right. Now, let's see what Traveler is doing, even if we have a good guess about it...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Map! Go forth!''

Traveler's gauntlet glowed and the purple eagle immediately flew ahead of him. The snow was falling quicker and heavier by every minute. But this was nothing like the Frozen Tundras, where the horseman, Sprint and Map nearly died from frostbite.

Holding the straps on his ride with one hand, Traveler held his own map in the other hand. Map revealed for him a plain way ahead. Then suddenly nothing...

''Ho!'' Shouted Traveler and Sprint tried to stop. The horse's legs started slipping as he tried to stop and regain his balance. Traveler nearly fell down from his horse. Thanks to Map, both fell onto the snow as the eagle slammed into Sprint, stopping our heroes from falling down the cliff. They stopped sliding just before the end of the cliff...

Traveler climbed down from Sprint, allowing him to stand up. Map landed on Traveler's right shoulder, finding the new shoulder plate more comfortable than the last one. The horseman walked to the edge of the cliff and looked down.

''Too high... and I can't even see the bottom of it.'' He said, as he looked at the depth below him. The snow was too thick to see the ground down there.
Then he looked a bit higher and saw something big. It was glowing and surrounded a big area. He could make out a tall tower inside the glow and he knew he was far away from it.

He looked at his map. 'The Crystal Empire' it showed. Though it wasn't that clear. Only a dot on the map. He had to go there, to get a better view and to make it appear more detailed on the map. He just had to find a way down...

To his right, a frozen waterfall. ''Perfect'' He thought and both Sprint and Map disappeared, along with his own map. He attached his claws and started running towards the waterfall. And he jumped...

In the air, he stretched out his body, flying even more further. His claws forward, like a tiger would jump after it's prey. And he reached the ice wall...
The claws dug into the ice and he immediately started sliding down. He looked down to see large ice parts, sticking out of the wall. He pulled to the side, pulling out the claws and re-stabbing them into the wall. He dodged the large ice pieces. Every time he saw one, he simply jumped to one side and continued descending somewhere else on the wall.

He hoped the way down will be short, because as he was sliding down, he curved cracks into the ice. He feared, maybe the whole thing will fall apart. And below him was nothing else, just an endless and painful death...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

*CRACK*

Traveler looked up. Nothing...

*CR-CRACK*

He looked up again and stopped sliding down. He re-stabbed his claws a bit further from each other, so he was in a more comfortable position. He narrowed his eyes to see through the snow. He was about to continue sliding down, when he heard another *crack*. He closed his eyes for a second and when he opened them, Map's purple energy could be seen in his eyes.

Now seeing through the snow and making out more detail from the ice wall, he saw his trail of crack, opening up even more. He didn't like the look of it...

*CRAAAAAK*

Suddenly, the whole upper side of the waterfall started to fall apart...

''Oh-'' He couldn't finish his sentence. A big chunk of ice nearly got him, but he quickly pressed himself against the ice and it barely missed him.

He watched as the big chunk fell into the thick snow and after a few seconds, he heard it breaking apart. ''I must be close...'' He thought and immediately started sliding down again.

More ice started to fall after him. All of them nearly hitting him. He always jumped to one side, dodging the deadly ice boulders. But soon, much more ice started to fall down. Small and big at the same time and his eagle eyes showed him no escape, only to release...

He let go of the wall and caught a big ice, falling on top of him. He climbed to it's top and scanned the other falling ice chunks. He saw one spot, where he can start his escaping maneuver...

He jumped up to one and immediately continued jumping to another one. Zig-zagging up his way, he soon reached the top of the first amount of ice chunks. Seeing that the next amount was too far, he stayed on the one he was standing on.
He looked down and saw the bottom of the frozen waterfall...

A smaller lake, where the waterfall ends. The water's surface was frozen and under a half meter thick layer was liquid water. As the ice he was standing on, crashed into the bottom, it started to sink under the water.

He quickly jumped down from the ice chunk and the other falling ones crashed into the water behind him. The ice started to open and he immediately started running away. Behind him, the big blast from the crash sent a wave through the liquid water. The ice below him started to blast upwards and he quickened his speed.

He was close to the shore, when the blast caught up with him and it sent him flying forward. He landed on his chest and rolled to his back. Panting, he looked over the collapsed waterfall.

The water was flowing down again and he could see a pink pony. He couldn't make out much of this pony, but he know something was off about her. He assumed it was a she, since it had pink coat.

Traveler stood up and don't thinking about the pony on top of the waterfall, he started walking towards the big glow.

''GAK!''

Traveler turned around and looked up at the waterfall. The pony wasn't there anymore. ''What the...?'' He thought and summoned Sprint.

''Let's get out of here!'' He said and hopped on top of his horse. Sprint neighed, reared up and started running towards the glow...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Twily!''

''Shiny!'' The two siblings hugged each other. ''We have to go. There are things out there which we don't want to run into.''

''Wh-what things?'' Asked Fluttershy fearfully, somehow whispering through the storm. ''Are there... followers around here? *MEEP*''

''No, but whatever are there, they're close. I don't really know if there is more of it. Maybe it's alone, but we don't want to find it out. Come on!''

And they started walking into the storm. Shining leading the group, while Spike carried Rarity's clothes and bags. He was also wearing something...

''I just knew you will look fantastic in these, Spike. I'm sure you will find a special somepony in this...'' Rarity's eyes sparkled, as she looked at Spike's 'Traveler Attire'. On the train, she gave him a full set of 'Traveler's' cloths, because she decided to start a new kind of fashion for him and other ponies. Of course, she made it in a smaller size and she didn't use leather. Also, she changed the colors too on Spike's cloth...

The boots were dark green and the trousers were lighter green. The robe was purple and the shoulder plates were made from his own spikes. The right shoulder plate was made from his green spikes, since those were more flexible. And the left one was made from both, green and purple...

''Yes... I'm sure I will get her heart...'' Spike mumbled for himself and he grinned. On the train, he was a bit angry about Traveler and Sprint. He thought those two will be more popular than him. But thankfully, Rarity made him those clothes and he was immediately on the lead. ''Thanks man...'' He though and continued carrying the clothes and bags.

Meanwhile, Rainbow Dash and Applejack were argued about Sprint. Rainbow was trying to hide her feelings and Applejack continued praising him, making Rainbow angry inside. And since they got off the train, they just kept arguing about their new crush...

Fluttershy was silent and Twilight was talking with her brother.

''I hope Traveler will find us...'' Mused aloud Shining Armor.

''Traveler? What do you mean?'' Asked Twilight, surprised to hear such a thing from her brother.

''The Princess said, if he finds us, then he can help us out. He's out there somewhere and maybe he can act as a bait.'' Shining Armor explained. He got the message from the Princess and both him and Cadance hoped for his arrival.

''As a bait? For what-''

Suddenly, some strange noise could be heard from the storm. A mysterious and creepy noise...

Fluttershy's eyes widened. ''*gasp* I-it's one of those things isn't it? The Followers are coming?!''

''Quickly, we have to get to the Crystal Empire!'' Shouted Shining Armor and everypony started running to the glowing rind.
Behind them, a shadow started to chase them. The girls and the two boys were running away from the shadow, which had two purple glowing eyes.

''Almost there! Keep running!'' Urged Shining Armor and let the girls and baby dragon ahead.

The shadow and Shining Armor looked at each other. The unicorn was the first to shoot, but the shadow easily dodged the spell. Then this shadow, stroke at Shining Armor and he braced himself, as the shadow got him.

Shining Armor felt his magic weakening. The shadow chuckled darkly and he was about to finish it's prey off, when a loud *crack* from the distance disturbed it's mealtime.
Shining Armor used this opportunity to break free and quickly jumped through the magic shield.

And the shadow became angry and decided to punish it's disturber, so it went to the loud noise's direction...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________
Somewhere... in the middle of the storm... a visually bucked up, pink pony was watching this...

''GAK!''
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Traveler was riding towards the giant, glowing thing. Which he soon found out, that it was actually a magic shield...

As he got closer and closer, the shield became bigger and bigger. He expected it to be bigger, but he never thought it would be THAT big. Also, he could make out even more detail about the inside of the shield...

Behind the shining and sparkling shield, was a beautiful city. The tower in the middle, looked breathtaking. Crystals everywhere around it and the whole thing illuminated the cloudy area. That made Traveler feel a bit better, since he was already suffering from frostbite. That event at the waterfall left his clothes wet and he shivered, as the cold wing hit him from everywhere. ''This storm is not natural... something is out here...''

Aside from that, he felt pretty good. The beautiful view gave him the strenght to keep going. As he got closer, he started to feel even more better, like the shield has a bonus to it. He felt happy, calmed and for some reason... loved...

And all of these feelings lasted for a short time. Because suddenly... a big and mysterious shadow...

Black Snow

NOTE:
Do not stop the music when a new scene starts! Stop it when you reach the next song or when the music ends by itself!
ENJOY!
;-)

Sprint disappeared in a small and green explosion, when the shadow hit him and Traveler. The strike came from their right and Traveler span around several times, before he landed on his side. He was a few hundred meters away from the shield and he couldn't make it.

He was about to stand up, when he noticed the shadow towering above him, ready to strike again. Then the shadow brought down it's black 'limb', crushing Traveler under it.

''RAAAAAAAWWWR'' It pulled back it's limb in pain.

Traveler had his double pole-ax sticking out of the ground and he was crouching close to it. ''I was really close...'' He said, starting to stand up and a few shadow remaining were sliding down his weapon's upper blade. ''And you stopped me...'' His weapon started to charge up with blue energy. The two part of the weapon got separated from each other a bit and the blue energy held them together like a magnetic force.

He pulled out the lower blade from the snow and span it around a few times. While he was spinning it, he moved it to his side and finally stopped spinning it. He held the weapon in a fighting position. One blade on the back of his right shoulder and the other pointing down. He bent his knees and leaned forward. His free hand started to glow in green, while the other in blue.

''Now... I'm gonna have some fun with you, before I die from frostbite...''
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Looks like Traveler found us...'' Stated Shining Armor, as he led the girls and 'Traveler Spike' to the throne room.

''But... does he know we're here? And need him to hold back King Sombra?'' Asked Twilight, concerned.

Shining Armor stayed silent for a second. ''I... don't think so.'' He hung his head.

''Then what are we waiting for?!'' Cried out Rainbow Dash. ''Let's tell him!''

''We have other things to do. Come on, we're almost there.'' Told them Shining Armor and he continued leading them down the hall.

''But... I can just fly back to him. I can do that in ten seconds flat!'' Rainbow tried...

''No! It's too dangerous. He has to find that out on his own!'' Shining Armor opened the throne room's big double door.

There they saw Princess Cadance, tiredly sitting on her throne. Twilight ran up to her.

''Cadance!''

The pink Alicorn looked up and smiled, running towards Twilight. They did their usual greeting...

''Sunshine, sunshine,
ladybugs awake,
clap your hooves
and do a little shake!''

''Cadance... you look less tired. What happened?'' Asked Shining Armor, looking over her wife.

''King Sombra stopped assaulting my shield. I regained some magic, so I should be better soon.'' She explained, nuzzling her husband.

''Phew...'' Nuzzled back Shining Armor. ''I hope Traveler can hold back Sombra.''

''The reinforcement?''

''Yes honey.''

''Good...''

They discussed what the girls and 'Spike The Traveler' has to do, while The Traveling Horseman fought for his life...

Rainbow and Applejack were worried about Sprint. Fluttershy was worried about the four traveler, while Rarity tried not to think about Traveler's ruined cloths. Twilight was trying to find a way to save the Empire and Pinkie Pie was a spy...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Sprint!''

Traveler summoned his horse as a distraction. Sprint enveloped himself in his green energy and rammed the shadow on it's middle section. The monster looked like it trembled back and when it regained it's control, Traveler was right in front of it's face. In the air, he span around and swiped across the shadow's face.

Even if he fell through the thing, Traveler's attack damaged the monster. He landed behind it and quickly turned around. Just as his enemy wanted to strike, he slammed his weapon into the ground, creating a counter force against the incoming attack.

This sent the shadow's limb back. Using this opportunity, Traveler kicked his weapons lower part, making it easier to spin it up. After few seconds of spinning, he sent it at the monster from his right side. While his weapon was flying through the shadow's face, he quickly attached his new claws to his gauntlets. He jumped at the shadow's 'shoulder' and swiped it two times as he span around once, making it fell down from it's place.

The monster roared in pain and anger, and sent several shadow tentacles at Traveler. ''Let's see what these new claws can do...'' He thought and waited for the right time.

The tentacles reached him and he used his new claws. To his gauntlets' , chains were attached. He started moving around himself his hands, in a tornado format. The chains' other ends were attached to his claws and as he moved around his hands, the claws reacted in the same way in the air, literally creating a 'shield' for him.
The tentacles slammed into the net of spinning claws and they got destroyed...

Again, the monster roared and collected it's power to shoot at Traveler...

That's when his double pole-ax came back like a boomerang...

The weapon was about slam into Traveler, when he sidestepped and grabbed one side of the weapon, while the weapon was still spinning. He tore it away from the other part, letting the still flying one hit the beast.
The single pole-ax hit the shadow's left side of it's neck and Traveler quickly jumped at the other side too. He stroke the other side of it's neck and looked the monster in the eye...

The monster stared back at Traveler's cold eyes. It became more furious and started to growl at him.

Then slowly, Traveler placed his free hand on the left pole-ax. His expression still not changing, he gripped the handle and leaned closer to the shadow's glowing eyes.

Then the monster realized what was he doing...

The monster's eyes widened and Traveler's eyes narrowed. He quickly grabbed the weapon's handles upside-down and brought them together, then across in front of him.

He cut down it's head by simply moving his arms across each other, weapon facing down in his hands. The shadow started to disappear and Traveler fell to the ground from like ten meters.

The remaining shadows slowly disappeared and Traveler put away his weapons. ''Wish I can keep it's head as a trophy...'' He thought and started to walk towards the shield.

''Do you really think you can kill me?''

Traveler stopped and slowly turned around. There stood, a grey unicorn. His mane was made from shadows and his eyes were green. He was wearing some kind of armor too and he just stood there, showing his sharp teeth as he grinned.

Traveler sighed. ''I should have known you have something else too.''

''Yes you should. But you defeated my shadow form. Impressive. Nopony every defeated me in any form.''

''Except the Princesses.'' Traveler corrected him.

The unicorn let go of an earth shuttering roar. ''LIES!''

Traveler didn't budge. ''The Equestrian History says something else... Sombra...''

''That's KING Sombra for you and today, you shall DIE!''

Sombra released his powers. His body got enveloped in more darker shadows. Soon, another shadow monster was standing in front of Traveler and in the middle of the shadow's body, Kind Sombra with glowing eyes.

Traveler shivered. His clothes were still wet and he spent too much time outside the storm. ''Probably have less than a hour now... damn it!''

He summoned his weapon and his eyes started to glow in purple. His left hand was ready to summon Sprint and in the right hand was his double pole-ax, glowing in blue. Soon, all the glowing turned into flaming. His weapon's blades were on blue fire, his hands were flaming, just like his eyes in purple.

He know he had to finish him fast. Or he will die from the cold...

Meanwhile in the Crystal Empire, the ponies started to remember their past. The mane six helped them out of course and they continued entertaining the citizens. Twilight was trying to find a way to fix everything and Spike continued being awesome in his new clothes...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''RAAAAAAAWWR!''

Roared Sombra and Traveler rolled away from the attack. Standing up again, he threw his weapon at Sombra. Like a spear, it stabbed Sombra's shadow giant on it's neck. The giant stumbled backwards and fell on it's back, when Traveler landed on him.

Traveler grabbed his weapon and twisted it a few times. For some reason, he heard the sound of flesh tearing and bones breaking. But he was sure it cause damage to the giant shadow.

And he found pleasure hearing that satisfying *crunch*...

As he continued twisting and stabbing his weapon deeper, a shadow hand grabbed him. The hand was half as big as him and it easily raised him from the shadow's neck. Traveler quickly grabbed his weapon and tore it half. One pole-ax in each hand, he used the right one to slash the hand and the left one to stab the fingers.

The hand, feeling the pain, threw Traveler at the shield from hundred meters away...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Ugh!''

''Cadance!''

''Ugh... looks like Sombra came back...''

''I need to warn Traveler about our situation.''

''I can do that!''

''You sure Rainbow?''

''Yeah, no big deal...''
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Traveler didn't like the sound of his crash and he felt pain building up in his spine. He started to slide down from the shield and landed on the snow. The shield didn't let him through, so he didn't use his powers to deaden the impact. And he didn't have time to use his powers, to make the crash less painful and when he landed, he heard another *snap*...

''Aaaaaghh!'' He cried out.

He used the shield to raise up, then leaned his back against it. Panting, he looked up to see Sombra's giant, rushing towards him.

Then it brought down it's huge fist...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

In the throne room, Princes Cadance cried out in pain. Her magic couldn't keep up the shield anymore and it disappeared.
Something crashed into a rock in the distance and it looked like it came through the shield.

Rainbow stopped flying and looked at the crash site. She knew it was Traveler and she immediately felt her heart stop. Shaking her head, she flew to Traveler as fast as she could.

''Traveler!'' She cried out, when she saw him lying against the big rock. She could see blood behind him and she feared the worst. ''Traveler?'' She whispered and Traveler didn't move. ''Traveler.'' Her eyes started to tear up. ''Come on man... say something...'' Her voice started to fade as she spoke. ''Anything... tell me about... your adventures... or physics... please...''

The ground shook under Sombra's steps, while Rainbow forced back her tears. ''I told you I kill you, Spirit.'' He started. ''And now... time to eat...''

''NO!''

Rainbow turned around, standing in front of Traveler's body. ''If you want him, you have to fight your way through ME!'' She shouted.

''HOW DARE YOU!''

Sombra yelled and brought down his giant feet, to stomp on Rainbow. She closed her eyes, waiting for the impact...

But it never came...

Suddenly... a burning streak pushed away the shadow's leg...

''WHAT THE?!'' Cried out Sombra and fell to his side.

Rainbow looked at the streak, coming back to them. She narrowed her eyes to see better. She could make out a blue pony, flying towards them and leaving a blue and red streak.

The pony dropped to the ground, spread around his limbs, so he would stop sliding right in front of them. He looked at the scene and a mad grin started to appear on his face...

''Hey, how's it goin'?! I'm Pyromancer AND I LOVE FIRE!'' The grin became wider, when he said the last part.

''Who are you?'' Asked Rainbow, mouth agape.

''Pyromancer.'' He answered simply. ''I just told you silly...''

''I mean... what are you doing here? You're not a Crystal pony...'' Said Dash, still feeling amazed by the burning streak he left.

''Does it look like I'm a bucking crystal pony? I'm a fire pony, see?'' He motioned at his flame cutie mark. ''And I'm here to help.'' He added, turning to Sombra, who was looking at his slightly burning leg.

''Why?'' Asked Rainbow.

''Because I saw that guy back there. HE JUST BUCKING DEMOLISHED A WATERFALL!'' Again, he grinned manically. ''And I am the only one who can destroy stuff...'' He narrowed his eyes at Sombra, who finally looked up.

Sombra didn't look happy. His nostrils blew out smoke and instead purple pupils, they turned to red. ''YOOOOUUUU-''

An arrow interrupted him and the two pegasus looked back at Traveler, holding out his bow. ''You all talk too much...bruhhrr...'' He shivered and dropped his bow. He started shaking all over his body.

''Traveler, what's wrong?'' Stepped next to him Rainbow Dash.

''So... cold... I have... frostbite... need... warmth...'' He hardly told her.

Rainbow panicked. She knew how he felt. She experienced it once and she hoped she would never have to feel it again. So she did the first thing she could think of...

She extended her wings and sat down on his lap. Her wings covered his whole upper body and with her mouth, she pulled off the hood and scarf. She know it looked awkward, but she had to do it, or he would die.

''No... stop... I need... Pyromancer...'' He said.

''Dude! I'm not gonna cuddle with you!'' He shouted back, watching Sombra pulling out the arrow from his true body. The arrow hit him on the shoulder, going through the shadow aura.

''Use... your... fire power for the worlds SAKE!'' Traveler shouted.

''If you say so...'' Pyromancer shrugged and flew away.

Traveler looked up slightly and saw Sombra. He was really close to them and he wore a mad grin. ''Last words?''

Rainbow gasped and squeezed Traveler even more, trying to heat him up faster. Traveler placed his hands one Rainbow, holding her close and his marks on the gauntlets facing towards Sombra.

He tiredly said...

''The true form is the weak point. Tear his heart out and enjoy your meal, Hunter...''

And out from the right gauntlet, jumped out Hunter. He immediately pounced at Sombra's true form and Sombra roared, as the wildcat was clinging to the shadow's chest.

''Crush his bones with your speed, Sprint...''

Sprint rammed Sombra, while Hunter was busy tearing away the shadows, trying to get closer to Sombra's true body. Sombra fell to the ground and the two animal started attacking him, not letting him stand up.

''Analyze him Map!'' He ordered and Map was right on his way, looking over the enemy.

Rainbow and Traveler heard something fast approaching. They saw Pyromancer, flying really fast and leaving that burning trail behind him. He started to circle around that rock, where the two friends were lying.

''Centrifugal force... wanna hear about some physics?'' Traveler chuckled weakly then let himself relax, as the warmth dried his cloths and his heart started to beat normally again.

''Shut up and don't move! You're comfi...'' Rainbow punched him slightly and made herself comfortable.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Wow, what is going on there?''

''Something is burning...''

''Please everypony calm down! Why don't we go and see what else can we eat?''

''Oh! Food!''

''Nice save Pinkie Pie...''
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Hey! Dude! You're gonna burn us alive!'' Shouted Rainbow, starting to sweat.

''WEEEEeeeeee~!'' Pyromancer flew far away and back. ''eeeeeEEEEEE!''

Traveler stood up, feeling relieved. He looked at Sombra, who was trying to stomp on Sprint or hit Hunter and Map. ''Map! Report!''

Map flew back to him and turned into a scroll. On the scroll, a few notes.

''Hight amount of magical power of shadows. Nothing else, just pure shadows. Hmm...'' He let go of the scroll and Map appeared again. ''We need light...'' Traveler stated.

''Whatever you do, don't let him consume the Empire. Give us some time and we will find a way to banish him.'' Rainbow informed him.

''I'll hold him back... now go back to the others!'' He told her, pointing back at the big city.

''I want to-''

''Go back? Of course Rainbow Dash, you can go back right now.'' He grinned.

''But Trave-''

''WRRAAAAAAAA!'' Sombra had enough and turned into shadows again. The tentacles stroke Hunter and Sprint and both disappeared. Rainbow was shocked to see this... especially because of Sprint...

Sombra started to approach the city. From every direction, shadows started to surround the whole Empire, covering more and more from it. Then the shield appeared again and it cut down Sombra's horn. He roared again in pain and Traveler turned to Rainbow.

''Get me the horn! I can't walk through the shield...'' Rainbow saluted and went to get the horn. Traveler glanced at Pyromancer. ''Hold up for a second!''

Traveler pulled out a golden cross and summoned Map. The eagle opened a portal and he stepped through it, leaving a confused Pyromancer behind. ''Da buck?'' He said and after shrugging, he flew after Sombra.

His mane and tail started to burn and he aimed at Sombra's true body. He didn't care about his own life. He lived outside that storm for too long and the only thing he wanted was just turning that place into a much warmer and friendlier place. He was willing to die for a better future...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Traveler appeared in a forest. He found the forest familiar, but he wasted no time observing the place. He had to find someone...

He sensed something on the back of his head. It was something sharp and big...

''Long time no see...'' Someone said behind Traveler.

''Good to see you too...'' He turned around. ''... Balance...''

In front of him stood the man, who asked him for help in the past. He was holding his scythe against Traveler's face. He could make out every detail from the handle of the scythe. A long spine, which was flexible.

Balance was looking at him seriously. On his upper body, two big scars were visible. One was a stab to the hearth and the other one was another wider stab on his belly. Both scar were still in healing progress...
The mark above his heart was a golden cross and on his right shoulder, his dark marks.
And he was naked...

''Why are you naked?'' Asked Traveler, not taking his eyes down from Balance's.

''My clothes are in no condition to wear them... but you shouldn't be concerned about me... you should be concerned about yourself...'' He told to Traveler.

''Why should I?'' Asked simply Traveler.

''I caught you getting into this world...''

''And?''

Balance started to circle around Traveler. He held his scythe against his head, while Traveler faced forward. ''I recently encountered three powerful being... two nearly killed me and one wanted to seduce me...''

''Alywa?'' Traveler cut in.

''Exactly... and I kinda became cautious. I have to keep an eye out for myself.'' He stopped in front of Traveler. ''And here you are... appearing in this world... my fourth encounter.''

''I can assure you that I'm only here for your help.'' Explained Traveler.

''Why should I believe you?'' Balance stepped closer to him, his scythe still pointing at him.

''Use your eyes! I didn't help you to get those, just to not use them. Come on! Use them now!''

Balance stood right in front of him, their faces nearly touching each other's. ''You asked for it...''

Balance closed his eyes. For several seconds, he kept them shut and concentrated. Meanwhile, Traveler braced himself...

Balance opened his eyes and Traveler forced back a shout of surprise. He gritted his teeth, as he was looking into Balance's special eyes. Balance started to breath faster and tried to force open his eyes. Then he gave up and closed them, panting and holding his head.

''Ugh... heh... hehhe... good to see a friendly visitor here...'' He joked and continued panting.

''Huh... huh... phew... so that's how it feels when you look into THOSE eyes...'' Commented Traveler, his heart beating faster.

Balance's eyes started to bleed and he chuckled. ''I fucked up myself again... what do you need me to do?''

''I need light, to kill a shadow...'' Told him Traveler, getting to the point.

Balance smirked and after several moments, he nodded. ''I give you Dhuradhan... he can help with the light.''

''You mean... yourself?'' Traveler was confused.

''One of my self, to be correct.'' Balance extended his left arm and a man in a white shirt, brown jeans and black and white skater shoes stepped out of it... literally. He had the same hairstyle like Balance, but longer. And his eyes were blue, not green and blue...

''Show me the way, Traveling Horseman!'' Said Dhuradhan, respectfully.

Balance nodded with still closed and bloody eyes. Traveler nodded too and opened a portal. They both stepped through and left Balance there, waiting for his eyes to stop bleeding...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Hey, how's it goin'?! Little help here?!'' Pyromancer shouted to Traveler and Dhuradhan.

''A... pony? How coincidence...'' Dhuradhan mused.

''Why is that?'' Asked Traveler, looking at Sombra as he was holding the blue pegasus.

''Never mind... what do you need me to do?''

''This beast is pure shadow.'' Traveler started. ''Can you help me get more light... uhm... Dhuradhan?''

''Yes... just need to clear the sky or get some more light from somewhere else. My power is limited, since I'm only one part of Adam's soul.'' Dhuradhan explained, looking up at the clouds.

''So that's his real name! Looks like you revealed yourself Balance...'' Traveler thought to himself. ''Alright then. We need a pegasi... Pyromancer!''

''How's it goin'?!'' He shouted back, while Sombra held him by his wings.

''Can you clear the sky? We need some fresh sunlight...'' Traveler asked him, readying his weapon to free him.

''I'm a pegasus dude! Of course I ca- AAAAHHHHH!'' Pyromancer cried out in pain, when Sombra crashed his wings.

Traveler immediately cut through Sombra's arm, releasing the hurt pegasus. Then Dhuradhan collected his powers and started to shine all over his body. Sombra backed away and covered his eyes. Pyromancer was wincing on the snow and cursed. Dhuradhan walked up to him, while Traveler distracted Sombra.

Pyromancer looked up at Dhanthas. ''Hey, how's it goin'?'' He chuckled and winced when Dhuradhan started to heal him.

''Don't move, you will be fine soon...'' Dhuradhan told him.

Dhuradhan's hands started to glow in light blue. He touched Pyromancer's wings and eased his pain. Then he swiftly grabbed his wings and popped his bones back to the right place. Pyromancer was about to shout something beautiful, but stopped himself, as the pain faded away. He laid his head back on the snow and enjoyed the calm feeling of healed bones.

A few seconds later, Dhuradhan sat down on the snow, exhausted. ''Ugh... quick, clear thy sky, then I can fight again...''

''Yeah, thanks doc.'' Pyromancer cracked his bones and took off.

Dhuradhan lay down on the ground and watched him speeding up. Pyromancer's streak behind him burned in red and blue. And as the sun started to get more visible, Dhuradhan whispered to himself. ''How coincidence... two fighter... both in a different Equestria... faith is truly an unpredictable thing...''

Pyromancer easily cleared the sky. Since he was burning inside, he didn't feel cold. And the only thing he was thinking about was to protect the others and save the Empire... and to burn stuff...

Dhuradhan felt his energy coming back. The sun's rays shone upon him and he stood up. Feeling much better, he started to run towards Traveler, who was dodging Sombra's hits and sometimes delivered a small strike.

''Give me the cross!'' Dhurdahan shouted.

Traveler rolled away from another attack and quickly threw the golden cross at Dhuradhan. He caught it and felt more power seeping inside him. His eyes started to glow in light blue, nearly white. Two blue, glowing wings started to materialize behind him. He flew up above Sombra, the sun rays going through his diaphanous wings. Soon, his whole body started to glow in blue and white...

''By the clear Light above us!'' His voice boomed. ''I eliminate you evil soul. May my power change your actions!'' He let go of the collected sun power, sending a huge light bolt at Sombra.

Traveler saw that coming and used his chained claws, to pull Sombra's legs out from under him. The giant shadow fell to his back and watched, as the huge amount of Light energy approached him quickly. He covered his eyes again and roared...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Where is that damn thing?'' Said out loud an impatient Rainbow Dash. She was still searching for Sombra's horn and she started to get annoyed.

Then she saw light from the corner of her eyes. ''What the buck is going on now?'' She angrily turned to the light. ''Whoa...'' Her jaw dropped.

She literally saw A LIGHT TOWER. The huge light beam was clearly visible, even if the shield was up before her. She quickly shook her and something caught her eyes. ''There it is!'' She cried out and quickly picked up the horn.

She immediately started to fly back to Traveler, carrying the horn...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''KA...............BIIIIIIIIMMMMMMM! That was awesome!'' Yelled Pyromancer.

Meanwhile in the air, Dhuradhan's wings disappeared and he stopped glowing. Then he started falling and he moved his body around, to land on his legs. After a hundred meters fall, he landed on the snow and with a grunt, he stood up.

''Send me back, or I lose my physical form...'' He tiredly told to Traveler and he opened the portal for him.

Dhuradhan limped to the portal and gave Traveler the golden cross. ''Whenever you need help, use this or find us...'' And he went back to the other Equestria...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Ugh... I'm... back...'' Dhuradhan collapsed on the ground and took some deep breath.

''Man, you look like you had a wild night? Were there girls back there?'' Dhanthas asked him, watching the portal disappearing. He was wearing white summer shorts, sandals and sunglasses. He just finished sunbathing...

''I... tell you... later...'' He panted and Balance/Adam stepped next to him.

''Take a rest.'' He extended his left arm and sucked Dhuradhan into it, making him disappear. ''We will continue training later...''

''Where is my fucking cigarette?'' Asked Dhanthas.

''In the backpack, I needed one.'' Answered Balance/Adam and he went to check on his clothes. ''Hm... I will need Rarity to make me some more clothes. I only have one set.''

''Whatever. I just want to hear about the ladies. I hope Dhuradhan banged one at least...'' Dhanthas lit up his cigarette and leaned against a tree.

''You pervert... it's a miracle you haven't jumped on me yet...'' Smirked Balance/Adam.

''Sorry bro, but this rod only enters to a female's back entrance...'' Dhanthas retorted.

The two continued doing their business. Balance was curious about Traveler's sudden appearance and Dhanthas thought about sex...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

The crater in the snow was smoking. The light beam left a nice destroyed area outside the shield. The ponies probably saw that too...

*GROWL* A single shadow hand raised from the crater. Then another and the shadow pulled itself out from the crater. King Sombra panted and his shadow form smoked from the previous attack. Then he looked up and smirked.

''WHAHHHAAHHAAAA! Did you really think that would kill me? I am far too powerful to be defeated by some weak light!'' He continued laughing at Traveler and Pyromancer.

''That piece of shit is just laughing at us? But he is so dark from inside... no wonder why he is so stupid...'' Commented Pyromancer.

''We can only do one thing fire pony...'' Traveler looked down at the pegasus. ''Wipe that smirk away from his face. What do you say?'' He smirked.

Pyromancer got the message and he extended his wings. He get into fighting position, while Traveler's hands started to glow again. Left one in green, the right one in blue and his eyes burned in purple. He readied his double pole-ax and pulled up his scarf to cover his face. Next came his hood, only the purple glowing could be seen under his hood, where he wasn't covered in clothes...

Sombra got ready too and roared at the two. Both sides kept looking at each other. Pyromancer grinned, as his mind was filled with the possibilities of burning Sombra to death. Sombra started to feel annoyed and he was ready to attack first.

And Traveler... he waited. He learned from his last mistake and decided to wait for the perfect moment to strike...

''RAAAAAAAAAAWWWRRR!'' Sombra started running towards them.

''Bitch please!'' Pyromancer rocketed forward, not letting his enemy to get the first hit.

Traveler started running to the left, rounding around Sombra, while he was busy with the pegasus. A small fire explosion could be heard and seen, where Sombra's hand and Pyromancer's body met with each other. The explosion was red and blue and it left Sombra's hand burning and smoking.

Pyromancer went flying towards Traveler. Traveler span around, while he grabbed Pyromancer and threw him at Sombra. Pyromancer flew back at Sombra, faster than last time. Sombra was still busy putting out the fire on his arm and re-growing the blown away parts of his arm.

Pyromancer slammed into his chest with his hooves. Sombra fell back, but rolling backwards, he stood up again.
Meanwhile, Traveler used his claws to launch himself into the air, towards Sombra. In the air, he used his bow to shoot three arrows. The first arrow hit Sombra's chest, but the shadow rind stopped it, before it could make contact with his real body. The second arrow cut the first arrow in half and broke through the shadow rind. And the third arrow did the same and this time, it hit Sombra's real body.

Sombra grunted as he felt his armor got penetrated by the arrow. The point of the arrow got his skin and only inches away, stopped before his heart. As he looked up, he saw Traveler throwing his claws at him. The claws dug into Sombra's shoulders and Traveler pulled himself onto him, kicking Sombra's shadow's head.

Traveler jumped up again, when the shadow's head wanted to bite him. He pulled his bow over his shoulders and pointed it at Sombra's head. The head opened it's mouth to swallow Traveler and he placed his legs on the upper and lower lips when he landed. He placed his bow into Sombra's mouth, before he could close it.

Traveler placed one arrow into his bow and stood on it's handle. He pulled the string with both hands, up to his chin. Grunting, he finally released the string, sending the arrow down the shadow's throat and hitting Sombra's real body, on his chest.

Sombra roared in pain. The full arrow head was inside his chest, REALLY close to his heart. And Pyromancer made his situation worse. The pegasus flew to the shadow's open mouth too.

Maniacally grinning down at Sombra, his tail and mane lit up, burning in his usual red and blue colors. He moved his tail next to his raised wing and his eyes gleamed and his whole body twitched, as he imagined the big damage, which he was about to make.

''Heat the buck up!'' He yelled and brought down his wing.

As the wing mowed down, it sent wind against the flaming tail. The huge amount of flames went down the shadow's throat, burning it away from the inside. Sombra felt the heat too and he turned into darkness. Traveler fell through him and he quickly pulled out the golden cross, forcing Sombra's shadows back, to not trap him inside.

Sombra re-materialized in front of the shield and looked at Traveler and Pyromancer. ''You two wasted my time and I HAD enough of you. I wanted to save my powers for the Crystal Empire, but you two LEFT ME NO CHOICE!''

The hole amongst the clouds were no longer there. The storm clouds covered the sky once again, no more sunlight anywhere. The storm from far away literally got pulled closer to the shield and even Pyromancer felt cold. Traveler felt worse than before. He got frostbite too fast and he collapsed on the ground.

''Now... I shall leave you two to die. Don't worry, freezing to death is slow and painful. MUHAHHAAAHHAAHAAAA!'' And Sombra turned to the shield, attacking and weakening it by every hit.

Pyromancer shivered. ''Shit... t-this is... t-t-too cold...''

Traveler started to feel sleepy. His heart started to slow down and he know he will black out soon. But he wanted to black out alone, not letting anyone else to get hurt or die.

He hardly stood up and picked up Pyromancer. ''Wh-w-what are y-you doin'?'' He mumbled, as he started to shiver all over his body. Traveler didn't respond, just brought Pyromancer to his side and using his last energy, threw him at the shield.

Pyromancer felt too weak to say anything against Traveler's actions. But as soon as he went through the shield, he got back all of his energy. ''YOU IDIOT! WHY THE BUCK DID YOU DO THAT?!'' He shouted to know one.

''Where is Traveler?''

Pyromancer turned around and saw Rainbow Dash, holding Sombra's horn. ''Sorry gurl, but yo' coltfriend threw me back here, because he wants to be the hero.'' Told her angrily Pyromancer.

''HE'S OUTSIDE ALONE?!'' Cried out Rainbow, dropping the horn onto the ground and not caring about what he called Traveler.

''Don't you dare go outside, or the storm immediately freeze you!'' He told her quickly.

''But-''

''Stop being a bitch and don't go out!''

''WHAT DID YOU SA-''

Suddenly, a black crystal emerged from the ground, where Sombra's horn was. It soon duplicated itself and continued cloning itself. Meanwhile, Sombra's mad laugh could be heard and as he says: ''Crystaaaaallll...''

Pyromancer and Rainbow Dash looked at each other and said at the same time:

''We're bucked...''
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Meanwhile, Traveler collapsed on the snow. His part was over for now and he will make Sombra pay for his actions.

''Element of Loyalty... hurry...''

He closed his eyes and let the darkness embrace his vision...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''You have to take the Crystal Heart!'' Twilight told to her assistant.

''But it's your test Twilight.'' Pointed out the baby dragon.

''You have to do this Spike!''

''*Sigh* Alright Twilight... I'll do it...''

Spike, The Traveling Dragon picked up the Crystal Heart. The black crystals around him chasing him, as he ran away from them. From time to time, he fired back at the crystals with flames and he soon found himself on the edge of the tower.

His traveler instinct kicked in and he jumped to a pillar, a few feet away from the tower. He only needed one claw to climb down the pillar, while he fired his green flames and held the Crystal Heart in his other claw.

And it looked so freaking badass...

A few mare below him fainted from his awesomeness...

He jumped back to the towers lower part. There he saw the crystal surrounding him. He still had one way... down...

''Love Princess!'' He shouted. His voice sounded more mature than ever.

Princess Cadance looked up from her husband's arms. Some energy quickly came back to her, as she saw the Crystal Heart in Traveler Spike's claws. Shining Useless Protector Armor saw that too and Picked Cadance up.

Raising his wife above him, he shouted. ''ABANDON THREAD!''

And Shining Now Useful Catapult Protector Armor threw his wife. Spike The Traveler seeing his plan working, he rushed towards the edge of the tower and jumped too. ''That's for you... Lady Rarity...'' He thought and winked at the mare of his dreams...

Rarity saw nothing, because of his hood covering his eyes...

Another group of mares fainted from his braveness...

Flying Mia Mora Cadenza... well... flew toward the small traveler. She caught him in the air and he sat down on her. As Spike, The Traveling Alicorn Rider Dragon was riding on his new and first flying pony, King Pissed Off Sombra tried to catch them.

Spike turned around on his ride and fired his green flames at the big shadow. It slowed him down, but Sombra became more furious. The Rideable Love Princess dove down and the brave dragon jumped down from her back. The Flying Not Rideable Anymore Alicorn approached the circle in the middle of the castle and placed the Crystal Heart between the crystal edges.

Meanwhile, The Now Just Traveler Spike landed in front of a few mares and they fainted again from his badflankness...

Rarity looked proud of her work... since the cloth makes the colt...

The crystal ponies started to charge up the Love Canon, to create the legendary Nuke of Love...

''Why doesn't he wakes up?!''

''Wait for it! Wait for iiit!''

''AAAhhh! *gasp*!''

''YES IT WORKED!... Kyle is a retard magnet!''

Traveler woke up from nearly freezing to death. Pyromancer flew around him with his flaming streak and Rainbow checked on him, if he's awake yet. Apparently, heating him up was successful...

Traveler was still panting and desperately gasped for more air. After a few seconds, before Rainbow can hug him, he stood up and gritted his teeth. ''Where the hell is that son of a map?! I'm gonna freaking kill him!''

''Really?'' Pyromancer started. ''Is that the best you can say? Jeeez and I though you are a badflank bastard...''

''Shut up dude. He's pissed...'' Whispered Rainbow to the other pegasus.

''And what? I'm just making him angrier, so he will kill it more brutally...'' He told to her. ''Hey, how's it goin'? Wanna kill some shadows?'' He trotted next to Traveler.

''You two... go back... NOW!'' Traveler formed his hands into fists and started walking towards the Empire.

''Hey, it's not so bad? Right?'' Asked Rainbow.

''Gurl...'' Pyromancer looked at her with an 'are you serious' face. ''He probably hates snow now. Do you have any idea, how would he feel at Christmas? White Christmas is the best and he's going to hate it, because of an annoying shadow. It IS bad, so shut up and let me handle this...''

''What the fuck is that?'' Traveler blurted out, looking at the city, where a light started to form. He wanted nothing more problem, just to get Sombra and do something really satisfyingly bad to the evil unicorn...

''Finally, he cursed normally...'' Pyromancer caught up with him.

Traveler narrowed his eyes and activated his Eagle Vision. He saw the light building in the middle of the city. Then an explosion and a huge wave of light spread around the area.

Quickly approaching Traveler and the two pegasus...

''OH GOD WHY-!''

Traveler started flying away, as the explosion hit him. His voice faded away, as he gained distance from the two pegasus. Pyromancer immediately started rolling on the ground, laughing his head of. Rainbow's jaws dropped...

''GAK!''

The pink, strange pony from before appeared next to them and Rainbow started laughing too. As the two pegasus were laughing, the strange pony's ridiculous face showed... nothing actually. He just looked blankly forward, not moving or anything...

''GAK!''

Author's Note

Well... that was really long.

Some things to clear out:
1.
I imagined Spike as Ezio from Assassin's Creed Revelation. The costume for some reason looked fitting for him.
2.
Traveler's new clothes can change, so i will always write down what it looks like.
3.
Pyromancer is this guy's OC ---> http://www.fimfiction.net/user/AhugeAcidTree
He helped me out and I promised him doing his OC and placing it into the story...
I don't know if I use him after the crystal empire adventure. Maybe some random appearance...
4.
If you find THIS, as an over powered character, then I don't even know anymore...
5.
I made the fight scenes serious and made the other parts funny. I tried to force back Pyromancer's humor/randomness as much as I could.
6.
I don't think I will make more Dhuradhan or Dhanthas or Balance appearance. Maybe if I run out of ideas...
7.
Here we are again... the seventh number... yay C:

Expect an execution in the next chapter! Because I love fatalities! >:-D

Red Snow

WARNING:
If you can't stand gory stuff, then don't read this chapter's marked parts!
If you don't like my point of view about: 'Revenge solves everything' and you feel uncomfortable seeing someone taking a merciless revenge, then I suggest you don't read this chapter's marked parts. You will not miss anything, because in later chapters, everything will be explained about the events in THIS chapter.
I warned you, so consider your choice!

The area around the Crystal Empire cleared out. The storm disappeared and even the snow on the ground melt away. In the distance, the snow remained on the mountains, but the weather wasn't that dangerous.

King Sombra's dark magic disappeared, along with the rough weather. His power got banished, but his physical form remained in the forgotten mountains. Letting him leave for the rest of his life alone, filling his heart with hatred and anger. His punishment was perfectly suited for him: Leaving him alone, with his cold heart.

King Sombra slowly stood up. His mane and tail no longer made from shadows. A long, unkept mane brushing against his dirty, gray coat. His eyes weren't glowing anymore, but their color remained. Just like his eyes, his horn remained crimson, with a few magic in it.

He looked around and realized what happened to him. He gritted his teeth and shouted. ''Curse you Crystal Princess!'' His voice no longer echoed.

He took some deep breath and stomped on the ground. Meanwhile, a few meters away from him Traveler. He was lying on the ground, face buried into the remaining snow. He grunted and woke up, to see Sombra, looking at him angrily.

''And you!'' Sombra started, snarling at him. His sharp teeth were no longer there, only a normal pony's teeth. ''My plan would have worked if you wouldn't spit into it!''

Traveler started to stood up and listened to Sombra's shouting. ''I would be the king again, if you wouldn't interfere. You dared to stand in my way and look at all what you did! My plans are ruined! Because of Spirit, who had to help the weak ponies! I AM KING SOMBRA AND I DESERVE THE THRONE!''

Traveler cared less about Sombra's yelling. His head was spinning and his body felt weird by the sudden weather changing. ''The Power of Love doesn't like me... what have I done to deserve this?'' He thought.

''But look... you can't even stand properly. And I still have enough unicorn magic.'' A mad grin appeared on Sombra's face. ''I should have killed you back there. Not leaving an unfinished job for the cold.'' He started approaching Traveler. ''But... better later than never...''

Traveler saw a grey blur approaching him. The spinning didn't help either. Sombra stopped in front of him and his horn started to glow in red. ''You caused me a really big trouble... and now I have to spend another thousand years, to get my powers back. But... '' Sombra leaned forward, pointing his horn at him. ''... your power seems promising to start my new plan.''

Traveler's vision started to clear out and the throbbing in his template eased. He felt a strange energy building up in front of him. He would start building up his own magic, to dodge the incoming attack. He would start thinking about a plan. A plan, which involves a safe way of killing. A clear and fast way...

But he did the exact opposite...

''I... take my revenge now Spirit and your weak ponies will cry for you to save them. But you will be dead... a useless corpse and I will be the king... AGAIN! AAHHAHHAAA!''

And Sombra released his magic...

Only, to get a purple and red magic bolt flying back to him...

Sombra flew back a few meters, his horn burning. He shook his head and looked at Traveler with wide eyes. ''It's... not... possible...'' He mumbled, mouth agape.

Traveler's right hand looked odd. He pulled off his gauntlets and revealed his bare hands. Behind the purple glowing aura, his bones were deformed, like something crashed into them. When the glowing stopped, he raised his broken hand. He grabbed it with his other one and with an easy pull, popped it back to it's place. He moved around his fingers a few times, hearing the satisfying pops of the working finger bones.

Sombra couldn't see his face, since Traveler's head was hanging forward. Traveler slowly pulled down his mask and hood, revealing a blank and deathly expression. He just stood there and started breathing faster. Every single inhale became faster and the exhales sounded rough. He soon started to breath trough his gritted teeth and he soon started frowning.

''Think over your plans...'' He said through his gritted teeth. ''You lost your magic and your body is week.''

Sombra swallowed his rising fear and tried to look brave. ''N-no! I still have my magic and my body is strong enough to kill you!''

''You mean that pathetic unicorn magic you possess? I doubt it... just like I doubt you can kill me with that small body of yours...'' Told him Traveler, cracking his neck and back.

''I AM POWERFUL YOU WEAK SPIRIT!'' Yelled Sombra, stomping a hoof on the ground.

''Well doesn't fucking look like it...'' Traveler started to approach Sombra.

Sombra was about to step back, but collected his thoughts and stood still. ''Heh, you can't kill me.''

''And that's where you're wrong.''

''Oh, so you want to try it out? Then I shall show you what I can do.''

Traveler ignored the fallen king's attempt to scare him. He reached a point, where he will NOT turn back and he will not feel pity for his enemy.

And he will enjoy it...

''How the hay can he do that?!''

Pyromancer and Rainbow Dash were still laughing at the 'Gak Pony'. They decided to call him like that, since he only said one word: 'GAK!'

''Oh dude... phew... that was good.''

''You don't SAAAY.'' Pyromancer said, making a really familiar face.

''But I just said.''

''You don't say?''

''You okay?''

''Yes.''

''Good.''

''And not a single buck was given...''

They continued flying towards the direction, where Traveler got blasted away. Rainbow quickly realized, how random Pyromancer is. And she will make sure to introduce him to Pinkie Pie.

Suddenly, a red and purple light flashed for a moment and they quickened their pace...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

There is something about the Spirit, that everyone should know...

They can reach a breaking point...

This breaking point is really dangerous. It happens when the Spirit is in danger, but haven't used away his or her powers. The breaking point is a final push for every Spirit and powerful being. In a life depending situation, they reach this point and unleash all their powers to escape or destroy everything. The same happened to many Spirits and many world and area got destroyed, by a furious Spirit.

Traveler saw that happening many times. And he swore he will never reach this point. But if he does... then he will lock away all his powers. He would give all his inner powers to his companions and he will be left by his weapons and raw strenght.

That's what he did before he started his final battle with Sombra. But unlike in other situations, he know he will win...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Sombra reared up and charged at Traveler with his glowing horn. Traveler waited for him and when he was close enough, he backhanded him across the face, sending Sombra a few meters away, to his right.

Sombra winced, as a blue bruise appeared on his left cheek. The hit stunned him for a second, but quickly shaking his head, he snarled at Traveler and rushed towards him again.

Traveler lazily turned towards Sombra and waited for him again. Instead of ramming him with his horn, he quickly turned around and tried to buck him with his two hind legs. But Traveler easily grabbed them...

Traveler raised up the unicorn upside down. Not giving him any second to try breaking free, Traveler kicked him. His foot hit Sombra's jaw, sending an unpleasant pain into his skull. Also, Traveler's knee hit Sombra's belly too and that made him open his mouth, just as his foot made contact with his jaw...

The kicks force sent Sombra swinging up and when he was swinging back, Traveler raised his feet again and kicked him with his rim on the belly again. As his rim made contact with his already hurt belly, he released his hind legs, letting him flying away a few feet.

Sombra rolled a few times, then stopped. Lying on the ground, he held his jaw with his hoof and growled in pain. Traveler approached him and was about to grab him, when Sombra tried to shoot him with his horn. Traveler kicked his head away, making Sombra's injury even worse.

Traveler grabbed him by his mane and raised him up slowly, making him cry out. He raised him higher than his head and looked over his prey. Sombra's eyes were shut, his mouth were hanging open and he forced back his screams. His hooves were kicking around everywhere, trying to break away from Traveler's death grip.

Not changing his expression, Traveler hit his neck with the edge of his hands, cracking a bone is Sombra's neck. Sombra started to gasp for air and Traveler delivered his fist into his rib cage.
The punch made a few ribs crack and one to break. This caused Sombra to gasp for air even faster, since the broken rib damaged his lungs.
But Traveler haven't finished yet. He delivered another hit to Sombra's jaw by using his palm and turning it while it made contact with the hurt jaw. This made Sombra's jaw pop out of it's place and the hit sent him flying away again.

Traveler popped his fingers a few times and looked over at Sombra. The unicorn was coughing violently, blood coming up his throat. Coughing a few times, he hardly mumbled out. ''Yo- *cough* you think if you kill me *cough* will solve everything? *cough cough*''

Traveler was standing over him, feeling the high urge to stomp on his mouth. ''Revenge solves everything... as you thought. I am just using it like you did...''

''It's not true!''

Traveler didn't even turned around. He knew who it was...

Rainbow and Pyromancer stood behind him, watching them. They saw Traveler punching away Sombra and Rainbow looked dumbfounded by Traveler's statement. Pyromancer nodded a few times in agreement. Even if didn't really care about Sombra's future, he still agreed with Rainbow.

Still looking down at Sombra with deathly eyes, he called back. ''Go away! It's my business!''

''Just look at him Traveler!'' Shouted Rainbow. ''You already hurt him enough. Just stop and-''

''AAAAAAHHHHH!''

Traveler stepped on Sombra's foreleg, breaking his bone. ''I didn't hear anything...''

''Man you're bucked up...'' Commented Pyromancer.

''Traveler!'' Yelled Rainbow, feeling offended by Traveler's brutal interruption.

''Dude! Just give him a second chance! Okay, he nearly killed you twice, but why don't you just... I dunno... take him to prison somewhere. There must be a cave where we can- WAAH! Shit, you're crazy?'' Pyromancer told him, when Traveler threw a knife back at him, nearly hitting him on the chest.

''Traveler! Stop this madness!'' Rainbow was shocked by Traveler's action. She never saw him like that.

''Madness? HA! This is just taking out the rubbish...'' Laughed Traveler.

''No... THIS IS EQUESTRIA!'' Corrected Pyromancer, trying to shout some sense into Traveler.

While they were arguing, Sombra concentrated his magic and levitated a rock. It was huge enough to knock out Traveler and he sent it flying at him...

Traveler sensed the magic under his leg and heard the sound of moving rocks. He looked directly at Sombra and stepped on his broken leg with the other one too, breaking Sombra's focus on the object. Sombra cried out in pain, as the already injured leg's bone broke in more places. And the rock fell to the ground, slid for a few seconds and Sombra's body stopped it's way. Sombra felt the huge rock rolling on top of him and he was about to cry out in pain, when Traveler pulled him up by his broken leg and raised him up.

''I say one more time... GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE!'' He shouted back at them..

Rainbow gasped at Traveler's words. Especially since he said it to her and Pyromancer. Pyromancer just looked at him with wide eyes, and shook his head.

''At least he cursed normally...'' He mumbled and sighed. ''Okay, looks like we can't talk any sense into you. So... see you later...'' He turned around and nudged Rainbow Dash to go back. She was still froze in place, mouth agape.

After a few seconds, she sighed and decided to not interrupt him. She didn't want to see what he was about to do. And she knew he will kill him anyways...

Pyromancer turned around and saw Sombra, trying to grin with broken jaw. Pyromancer raised an eyebrow, then shaking his head, he called back.

''Hey Simba!'' Sombra cracked open one eye and looked at him. ''You sir... are about to get raped...'' He was about to turn around, when he remembered something really important. ''Oh and buck you for trapping me inside the freaking waterfall. Go and eat a hedgehog... if you can catch it...'' He looked at Rainbow Dash and did the eyebrow trick. ''If you know what I mean...''

Rainbow didn't even looked at him. She kept looking at her hooves and Pyromancer followed her, shrugging at the mares sudden mood drop.

Sombra was still grinning and looked at Traveler. Traveler didn't like the way he was looking at him. ''Wipe that fucking grin off your face!'' He told him.

Sombra chuckled weakly, wincing as he felt pain in his jaw. But he couldn't stop grinning. ''Looks like you have problems with your friends...'' He whispered and started chuckling again.

Traveler had enough and swinging Sombra around, he slammed him into the rock. Sombra found himself lying on top of the rock and his back ached from the slam. He looked up and he was face to face with Traveler's upside down face. ''I think you want to repeat this. Here, let me help with your jaw...'' Traveler punched Sombra's jaw back to it's place and he immediately cried out in pain. The hurt bones moving back to their places and the hit on his skin was really painful...

''Talk!'' Ordered Traveler and raised both of his arms. He brought them down on Sombra's re-popped jaw and it nearly broke it again. Then he repeated the process, hitting his neck, chest and jaw a few times, while grunting 'Talk!' , 'I can't hear it!' , 'You refuse to talk?' , 'I said talk!' and 'why don't you talk?'. Sombra's body twitched every time Traveler brought down his fist forcefully. Sombra's face was already covered in blood, as every hit made his blood filled insides to pump up the red liquid through his mouth. Traveler took off his coat, since he started to sweat from the beating and he liked his coat in blue, not red...

When he turned back to Sombra, the unicorn tried to crawl down from the rock. Traveler jumped up above him and placed one leg on Sombra's broken ribs. Sombra screamed weakly, as he felt his already injured insides burning in pain. Traveler placed his full body weight on the ribs, while slowly crouching down on him. This made Sombra scream more forceful and he tried to push away the big foot from his hurt ribs. He also tried to charge up another spell...

Traveler saw the magic building up in the horn...

He used his left hand to grab his neck...

Then he grabbed the horn with the right hand, making Sombra's magic shut down...

He gripped it forcefully...

Then started pulling it...

His left hand forcing Sombra's head to follow the horn...

And finally...

With one last pull and a fierce shout...

The horn tore out from Sombra's skull...

''AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!''

Sombra couldn't do anything, just scream and stir under Traveler's weight. The indescribable pain in his forehead made his eyes go wide. The agony all over his body and especially in his head was unbearable.

Traveler examined the horn, taking his time. While Sombra worthlessly attempted to slid out from under him, Traveler grabbed his right hoof, still looking at the horn. Then running his cold eyes through Sombra's now blood covered hoof, he inspected the fur.

He grabbed the hoof harshly and held it still. Then stabbed the horn into his foreleg...

Sombra's blood ran cold. First, a part of him got tore out from his mind, literally making a hole in his mind. And after the unpleasant sensation, this lost part of him returned, but not in the kindest way...

Traveler started moving the horn down, cutting Sombra's skin and flesh up. He screamed and tried even harder to push his leg down from his weakened and beaten body. After a minute of struggling, screaming and stirring, Traveler stopped cutting him up. He grabbed the chunk of flesh on Sombra's leg and tore it down, making Sombra scream even louder.

Traveler looked at the fur closely. Moving it around in his hand, he found the fur and leather useful. ''I'll need more of this...'' He looked at Sombra's scalped foreleg. He tilted his head as he was thinking, then hummed. ''I take it you don't need that anymore...''

Again, Traveler grabbed his hoof and stabbed it with the horn, deeper than the last time. Sombra's foreleg lost too much blood to feel the stab. But what Traveler did after that was something that he still felt. As the horn was inside his hoof, Traveler grabbed Sombra's shoulder and after some struggling and tugging, he tore down the lover part of Sombra's foreleg.

Even if it wasn't that painful like his horn, Sombra still screamed really loud. He was already over with the panic, since Traveler already took away one part from him. But seeing and feeling another peace of him tore down from him, made him panic again. Sombra was sure in it: Traveler will tore him into peaces...

Traveler dropped the foreleg next to the rock. He will take care of that later...

He turned back to Sombra. The fallen king was looking at his cut down foreleg. His eyes were tired, his face was covered in blood and just looking into that hole in his head was simply horrifying. His broken hoof slowly dropped next to him, not pushing Traveler's foot anymore.

Traveler gripped the horn and crouched on top of Sombra. The unicorn's eyes lost every hope of surviving and he was repeatedly gasping for air.

''Let's see if your heart is as cold as your soul...'' Told him Traveler, leaning close to his face.

Traveler grabbed Sombra's armor and tore it to separate ways. The stable material, which held in place Sombra's broken ribs were no longer there. It left his ribs exposed and unstable, allowing his ribs to sting his inner sides as he breathed.

Traveler grabbed the horn with two hands. He raised it above his head and professionally brought it down. Blood drops flew at every direction, landing on Traveler's cloths and face. Not to mention Sombra, who was already a bloody mess...
The stab perfectly went through the skin and flesh, between the ribs. Sombra had no more energy to even scream. To his horror, he watched as Traveler forced open his chest. He soon felt his fingers, touching his heart.

''Hmhmmm... jackpot...'' A sick grin formed on the Spirit's face, as he slid his fingers around the dying unicorn's heart. Sombra gasped, as Traveler squeezed the sensitive organ and sent more blood up through his mouth and through the cuts and holes on his body. ''Not so heartless are we?'' Commented Traveler, his voice cold.

Sombra's vision started to fade away. The corners of his eyes started to become darker and darker, as his torturer took his time...

Then Traveler started pulling the heart...

Sombra quickly regained enough energy to scream his lungs out, even if the blood started to leave through his mouth, like a waterfall. His limbs tensed, his back arched and his eyes were wide. The mercy was literally in Traveler's hand, which he will not give...

Placing his left hand on the defeated unicorn's chest, he used his right hand to tug and pull the heart. Each tug made Sombra's body to react by itself. Sombra by himself couldn't do anything. The only thing his brain could proceed was the unspeakable pain and agony. He could only scream and hope for this nightmare to finally end...

''WRRAAAHH!''

Traveler shouted and nearly fell back...

A huge amount of blood following him...

And in his hand...

The only...

The most feared and dangerous...

Kind Sombra's heart...

Immediately, silence filled the forgotten area. No more screaming...

Traveler looked at Sombra's body. Literally, an emptied corpse. The blood was dripping down from the holes and the mouth. The wide cut on the chest showed the blood, which filled the gap, like some kind of red river between the mountains...

Suddenly, black magical energy started to seep out from Sombra's lifeless body. The shadows reached the heart and the whole organ started to beat again and glowed in a black aura.

Traveler hummed and jumped down from the rock. Blood rivers were running down from the rock's sides and met with each other at the bottom. In the bloody lake, Sombra's cut down limb.

Traveler placed the heart on Sombra's corpse and went to pick up some remained snow. He washed down the blood from his hands and pulled out his gauntlets. He summoned Hunter and the wildcat immediately picked up the scent of fresh meat and blood.

Hunter's predator eyes glued onto the dead body and he was about to pounce onto it...

''BEFORE... you do anything nice!'' Interrupted him Traveler and the wildcat immediately sat down in front of him.

Traveler walked back to the body and grabbed the heart. He walked in front of Hunter and held it in front of the cat. ''I have something useful for you... here you go... eat it!''

Hunter hesitated no more, he opened his mouth and Traveler put it into his mouth. The wildcat happily chewed on the sweet and bloody organ. The corner of his mouth became red from the huge amount of blood and he spent a good five minutes to swallow it.

When he sent it down on his throat, he looked like he was in pain. He gritted his teeth and collapsed on the ground. Traveler walked up next to him and grabbed his paw. The wildcat dug his claws into Traveler's arms, trying to ease the unpleasant feeling in his stomach.

Then the wildcat cried out in pain, roaring and stomping on the ground. Traveler watched as his whole body enveloped in a dark blue aura and Hunter started to become bigger. His claws became sharper and his eyetooth grew longer, to the point when it was sticking out from his mouth. His eyes got a black circle into their blue color and his whole body's color became darker.

The wildcat stopped wincing and twitching and stood up. He was half as tall as Traveler. Twice as big as before...

''Good...'' Spoke up Traveler. ''How do you feel?''

Hunter looked over his body and Traveler was surprised to see his wildcat reacting in an intelligent way. ''Can you tell me what color is your fur?''

Traveler's jaw dropped, when Hunter walked to his blue coat and presented it to him. ''Looks like new power, more IQ... interesting.'' He thought, then looked at the horn. ''What if I...''

He summoned Map. The eagle tilted his head to the side, when Traveler looked at the horn, then at him. Thinking for a few seconds, Traveler crouched down in front of the eagle. ''Map, can you consume this?''

Map hopped onto the horn on the ground and after just looking at it, Map turned into his scroll form. The scroll embraced the horn and it started glowing in a purple aura. The glowing became brighter and brighter and after a smaller explosion, Map appeared again, crashing into the ground. The eagle started to tumble around and trembled violently. Screeching loudly, the sound of flesh tearing apart was still hearable...

Then the eagle stopped all the noises. Traveler examined Map's new body...

The eagle became a bit bigger and his purple feather's also had a slight red shade too. His eyes were different too... they looked like a predator's. The straight line was red, while the whole eyeball was purple. But the most noticeable thing was the small crimson horn on his forehead...

''What is the color of your new horn?'' Asked him Traveler, expecting the eagle to fly next to the bloody corpse. Instead, Map flew right at his chest and pulled off his red scarf. Traveler grinned, as Map placed the scarf around his own neck and looked at Traveler, expecting him to be angry.

But Traveler just patted him the head, letting him wear the scarf for now.

He walked to the corpse and looked over the body. Seeing that his newly evolved companies are getting used to their new forms and powers, he decided to bring some leather back to Rarity...

He pulled out a knife and one of his claws. He examined the tore down hoof and simply pulled down the skin from it. Turning to the body, he searched for a good place to start the work, then started skinning...

He choose the broken foreleg foreleg to start with. From the hoof, he dug his claw under the flesh and moving it around the hoof, he loosened the skin. Then he made a long cut from the tip of the hoof, to the shoulder. Again, he used the claw to loosen the remaining intact flesh and when he finished picking up the flesh, he used the knife to cut it down from Sombra's leg.

Traveler looked over his less than half done work. The claws, as always, perfectly picked up, every flesh and skin. The right foreleg was a big, red,fleshy limb on a dead unicorn.

''Two are done... two more to go...'' He said and started doing the same process with the other limbs...

Meanwhile in the Crystal Empire, the ponies were shining...

''Butt Stallion!'' Said Pyromancer, looking amused, as the Crystal Ponies were celebrating.

''What the hay are you talking about?'' Looked at him Rainbow Dash confused. She was still trying to get used to Pyromancer's random outbursts and ridiculous actions.

Pyromancer placed a foreleg around Rainbow and said. ''Ponies... ponies everywhere...''

''Yeah I can see that...'' Rainbow slipped out from Pyromancer's half hug and continued walking back to her friends. Her thoughts were filled with Traveler's words and actions. She was sad to see him like that...
As she was walking away, she flicked her tail and it slapped Pyromancer on the nose.

Pyromancer only started at her backside and mumbled to himself. ''Me gusta...''

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Here's another mark. The next part is gory again! And this is the end of the chapter as well...
Read the author's note!

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Traveler finished with the limbs and cut down the mane and tail. The next was the remaining fur on the body...

Since he already made a big cut on the chest, he used it to start the first steps...

Traveler dug the claw under the skin and forced it to open up wider. The gooey skin was flexible and with a quick tug, he tore it apart. He saw the flesh and skin easily coming up as he pulled it down. So he continued pulling up the flesh, instead of struggling with the knife and claw.

He listened to the sound of flesh tearing and watched as every little piece of skin tore away from the now dry flesh. Traveler spent a good half a hour, skinning down Sombra's hide...

Meanwhile, his companions watched him, but mostly Sombra's furless and tasty body. The exposed flesh was an inviting sign for the two predator. Hunter licked his lips as he imagined the soft and protein rich meat in his mouth. Map jumped in place, as he heard and watched every little detail of the useless skin tearing away from the useful body. At least in his opinion, the body was the important thing... jummy...

''Done...'' Said out loud Traveler, putting the scalped skins into a small bag. Then he put the small bag back into his backpack.

He looked into Sombra's still open eyes. He hummed and turned his whole body towards the corpse. He leaned close to the blood stained flesh and sniffed. He got used to the scent of blood, but he was still curious...

''Ugh!'' He spit out the chunk of meat, which he bit out from the body. His two animals were watching him in amusement as he shook his head and spit out blood. ''Ugh... how can Balance eat this?'' He looked at his animals and he could swear he saw the two grinning at him.

''Go... take your time! I have to wash out this taste from my mouth...'' He told them and the two animal immediately jumped at the dead body, tearing apart the limbs and the out sticking flesh...

Author's Note

I had to make myself really aggressive to make this chapter. At first it was just an execution, but I soon found myself enjoying the brutality. So... here you go...
No, I'm not gonna make Traveler into a cannibal. My other character Balance fits for that better...
Next chapter will be a normal chapter. (Traveler keep getting mindbucked, the girls will fall for Sprint, Spike continue being awesome, Pyromancer will tell us more reference and Pinkie continues breaking the fourth wall...)
''Congratulation! Your Hunter and Map evolved! Overpowered character! Let them downvotes rate this story!'' Now let me tell you something! I didn't make the two that strong. And I have a good idea, which i needed the two to get stronger. You will see it in the future chapters. Why did I skipped Sprint with the level up thing? Because he was already as clever as a sentient creature! So now, all three of them is like a Sprint, just can't talk and looks like animals. I'm not gonna spoiler my plans so that's it for now.
Have a nice day!

Ps.: Revenge solves everything!

White Snow

''All right... what do we have here...''

Said out loud Traveler, as he was walking into the Crystal Empire's territory. He already left the snow behind and to his 'now-good-mood-since-I-took-my-revenge' mood, the scenery added some kind of clean feeling. What he have seen yet was just the outside of the Empire. He couldn't image what it will be like in the city...

He soon found out, when his blank expression finally showed some happy emotion. ''Houses... made from mostly crystals. The road is like a mirror, made out from crystal too. The whole town has a strange clean sign, which is obvious...
And lot of ponies... all of them shining... like an armor... I should stop thinking for now. Just relax and see if the others are alright...''

While he was thinking that, a screaming Fluttershy in a battle armor flew across the street, nearly knocking down Traveler...

Traveler walked over to her and lifted up the broken planks and other rubbish. He was surprised to see:
''The Element of Kindness nearly knocking me down and there is suddenly wood here... and I thought everything is made from crystals...''

''MHFF-mfhhfff'' Fluttershy tried to speak, but her helmet was facing the wrong way.

''Yep... nothing abnormal about this as well...'' He helped her turning the helmet back to it's right place and Fluttershy looked at him blankly. ''Is something wrong?'' He asked.

Fluttershy kept staring at him, then sighed. ''Y... you took care of Sombra... did you?''

Traveler (for the first time) felt sorry for the little pegasus. He knew how sensitive she was and he guessed Rainbow told her everything. Traveler sighed and patted her head. ''Sometimes... we- I mean... I have to make radical changes...'' He told her, correcting himself. He forgot he was in Equestria and the ponies have no idea about the life he went through...

''B-but... you still... just...'' Fluttershy couldn't find the words, neither the power to say those words.

Traveler decided to end the conversation quickly. ''Look, you don't need to understand this thing. It's something that you ponies would never understand...'' ''Except the Night Princess...''

''But you had to use his... his...''

''Body?'' Finished for her Traveler. Fluttershy nodded and he continued. ''Spirits would never miss the chance to completely destroy their enemy. And what I did to his body was making use and cleaning up. Plus... I reached a breaking point and-''

''Making USE? CLEANING UP!?''

Traveler sighed and turned around, allowing Fluttershy to stand up too. There was Rainbow Dash, hovering in the air dressed in the same battle armor like Fluttershy. She looked disgusted by Traveler's choice of words.

''Don't even try to hide it! You enjoyed torturing him!'' Snapped at him Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy decided to sneak away from both of them.

''I did not torture him. I just-''

''You just brutally killed him and made him suffer! You are a liar and a monster no-''

Traveler rushed towards Rainbow and grabbed her behind the head, interrupting her. He leaned close and his voice deepened. ''I... am... not a liar and don't you dare talk about me like that... I am not like Balance... got it? Maybe he ignores these names and even consider himself a monster. But... I... am... not... like... him.'' He explained clearly, gritting his teeth.

Rainbow was shocked, but quickly started glaring at him. Traveler realized what he did and loosened his grip on the back of Rainbow's head. While he was moving Rainbow's head closer to his, he closed his eyes and hung his head. Rainbow looked surprised by his sudden tenderness, when he sighed and spoke up. ''I'm sorry... I have to calm down...''

Rainbow sighed too and closed her eyes too. ''Okay... apology accepted...''

''I just reached the so called Breaking Point... it's complicated to explain it, so I just simply say it... you snap when you reach that point. And no matter how many of your friends try to stop you, you just keep going and try to survive or destroy... believe me when I say sorry...'' He let go of Rainbow Dash.

She took some deep breath and finally smiled up to him. Traveler looked at Fluttershy, who was trying to sneak away. But the ponies in her way didn't saw her and SHE kept apologizing for bumping into them. He smiled at the poor little pegasus and turned back to Rainbow. She was wearing a huge grin...

''What?'' Traveler raised an eyebrow.

''T-man has a heart~'' Rainbow stuck out her tongue and giggled, still grinning at him.

Traveler leaned back in surprise and chuckled. ''I told you... I am no Balance...''

''Who is Balance? And by the way... where is Sprint? Is he alright? The last time I saw him, he was at the fight...'' Rainbow tried to hide her blush. Thankfully, the helmet covered most of her cheek...

He summoned Sprint. ''Here he is. Just had to take a rest and he is much better. And Balance is-''

Suddenly... Pyromancer...

*BAMM* ''Does he know History?''

Rainbow and Traveler jumped back from Sprint, when Pyromancer fell on him from the sky...

''Uhm... no he doesn't- wait! How do you know about that huge owl? Are you a Spirit too?'' Traveler asked, somewhat surprised.

''Nope...'' Pyromancer answered, while he was lying on Sprints back in an odd way.

''I'm on a horse...''

''Ahh, Traveler! Ugh... n... nice clothes darling hehhehhee...''

Rarity snapped Traveler out from his relaxation. He was watching Fluttershy and Rainbow fighting, while the Crystal Ponies cheered and Rainbow pumped her ego to higher levels...

Spike (still in his Traveler clothes) was next to Rarity, carrying her newly bought stuff with ease. Rarity was right... the suit makes you better...

Traveler glanced at his clothes, then back at Rarity. Some blood was still visible on the coat... ''You're here to start yelling at me, for what I did?''

''While I do not agree with such brutality... no.'' She answered. Spike stood next to her like a statue, holding the three times his size stuffs. It was an impressive sight to see a baby dragon, holding that much rubbish...
''I'm here to yell at you, because you RUINED my clothes.'' Fiercely looking at Traveler, Pyromancer snored loudly, next to Traveler...
''So give me back those and I'll fix them. And YOU... go to the throne room.'' She added.

''Why?'' Asked simply Traveler.

''Because Shining Armor and Princess Cadance are waiting for you. Now give me the clothes!''

Traveler took off his coat and cape. Spike somehow managed to hold the towering cloths with one hand (claw) and threw the coat and cape on top of the 'cloth tower'. Rarity nearly fainted, when she saw Traveler's red sweater. There were some visible blood mark on it...

''Take... it... off... now... wheeeeww...'' And she 'dramatize fainted'... and Spike caught her. If the hood wasn't covering his face, everypony would see his big grin...

Traveler took off the sweater and body armor too, since they needed some repair too. The many blows from the fight broke the armor at some part and it was uncomfortable. Only his blue long-sleeved shirt remained, which somehow tore away at some place. He glanced at Rarity and watched her reaction. Rarity gasped and Traveler took off the blue cloth too.

Now half naked, he started to take off the trouser too. Before Rarity could stop him, she saw shorts under the trouser. They were blue and looked warm. He really prepared for the cold weather...

He refused to give away the backpack and the weapon holsters, belt and straps. Rarity finally fainted, Spike said ''Impressive...'' and Pyromancer made a face as they looked at his torso.

On the battleground, Rainbow looked at him as well, mouth agape. Fluttershy was already rushing at her, spear pointing at the distracted pegasus.

For the first time... the timid little pegasus won the round...

''It's good to see you Traveler! You can't imagine how terrible it would be, if you don't show up...'' Greeted him the white unicorn guard.

Traveler closed the double doors behind him, as he walked into the throne room. His backpack covering the back side of his torso...

''I am really grateful Spirit.'' Started Princess Cadance. ''Without you, we would never be able to banish Sombra.''

''You only banished his powers...'' Traveler slowly turned around, to look at the two. ''His physical body remained and his plan was to wait another thousand years, to strike again...''

The Princess and 'Literally Shining Armor' were shocked to hear this. And they were also shocked to see Traveler's body...

Both of his arms had several bruises and his veins were visible on his muscles. On the right side of his neck, a slight cut and the whole right side of his exposed body was cut, stabbed or bruised. The latter was caused by Sombra...

''No... that is what happened a thousand years ago too?'' Princess Cadance hung her head and Shining Armor comforted her.

''I'm afraid, yes.'' Told to her the unicorn.

''I already took care of the problem...'' The two shining pony looked up at him, surprised and relieved. Traveler looked at them seriously.

''How?''

The throne room opened and an angry Twilight stormed in. The couple looked at him with a questioning look.

''You want to know?'' Irritation could be heard in Traveler's voice.

''I want to hear it from you!'' Demanded Twilight.

''Twily? What's wrong?'' Asked her brother.

Twilight trotted before Shining Armor and Cadance and turned back to Traveler. ''Let him tell us what happened!''

Traveler felt offended. Rainbow already gave him that yelling and he had enough of that. So he decided to stop avoiding from the question...

''Okay, you asked for it!'' He started and started walking towards them. ''I killed Sombra's physical form.''

''I already knew that. But how did you do it? Tell us!'' Twilight urged him, voice rising.

''You want to know? Here you go, I tell you! Every detail from MY mouth! I KILLED Sombra by beating the life out of him and exterminated his body! Before that, I made use of it.'' He pulled out the small bag from his backpack and opened it. He put his hand inside and pulled out the skin of a certain evil unicorn's. ''See?! I have proof as well! Are you satisfied Element?!''

Twilight winced when he tore to two peaces the skin, then she continued glaring at him. ''You forgot to mention, how you tortured him!''

The two pony behind Twilight exchanged looks and Shining Armor started glaring at him too, while Cadance gaped at him. ''You did what? Wasn't the Ancient Castle incident enough, now you start slaughtering here too?!''

''Be happy for killing that bastard for you! The torture part?! It's my personal thing, for fuck sake!'' Traveler shouted back. ''Why do these freaking ponies have to be so sensitive about this? Can't they just let it go, as long as I don't gut their Princess?'' He thought angrily.

Then Twilight said something that she shouldn't...

''You monster...''

Traveler rushed forward again and was about to grab her like he did it with Rainbow Dash. But he remembered his mistake and settled to just simply scare her.

''You want me to be a monster?'' He summoned his two newly evolved animals and Twilight's eyes widened. Shining Armor was taken aback for a second, then snapping out of the trance, he rushed at Traveler. Map flew in front of the white unicorn and pointed his new horn at him. The unicorn slammed into a dark purple shield, which was close to red.

Traveler continued. ''Do you have any idea... any idea about monsters? Those Followers are the monsters, not me. If I would be a monster, then all of you would be already DEAD!'' He stood up and started walking out of the throne room. ''You should be glad that I'm on your side!'' He opened the throne room and glanced back. ''Love Princess? I am terribly sorry for that... I would rather meet with another Alicorn under better circumstances...''
The two animals soon disappeared and Traveler left three shocked pony...

''Hey, how's it goin'?!''

''Leaving...''

''Okay...''

Traveler walked down the streets of the Crystal Empire. His new destination... Ponyville. Finally... peacefully... in quiet...

''Where are we going?'' Asked Pyromancer, trotting next to him.

''We?'' Traveler asked him, raising an eyebrow.

''Yes, we. Partners... together... going on an epic adventure...'' The pegasus explained.

''We're not partners.'' Stated Traveler.

''Yes we are. Since I saved your arse, I want to accompany you on your way to... where are we going exactly?''

''Ponyville...''

''Are we there yet?''

''No.''

''...''

''Are we there yet?''

''Not yet.''

''Aww...''

''...''

''Are we-''

''Is that the only thing you can say?''

''...''

''I'm on a horse...''

Traveler facepalmed, while they were riding through the snowy mountains, back to Ponyville...

''No, we're here.''

''Are we there yet?''

''No.''

''Are we there yet?''

''No.''

''Are we there yet?''

''No.''

''Are we there yet?''

''No.''

''Are we there yet?''

''N-''

''C-c-combo break!''

''*Sigh*''

And Traveler facepalmed again...

And Pyromancer kept facing forward with a natural face. Like nothing is wrong with the world...

''Are we there yet?''

''No.''

''Are we there yet?''

''No!''

''Are we there yet?''

''NO!''

''Are we-''

''Shut up!''

''... okay then I say nothing...'' Pyromancer pouted. That cute kind of pout, which the ponies can do...

''Halle-fucking-lujah!'' Traveler blurted out and they continued walking back to town. They spent one and a half day, traveling back to Ponyville...

''Wanna hear how I became a fire pony?''

Traveler wanted to say 'no', but thinking about it, he decided to let him speak... as long as he stops repeating himself...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''WEEEEEEEEEEEEE~!''

A blue pegasus with red and blue flame like mane flew through the clouds. The snow was making the whole place more beautiful and the young stallion enjoyed his time.

That's when he spotted a hole behind a waterfall. He decided to check it out, since the cave looked epic... for him at least...

When he landed inside, he heard somepony laughing and suddenly, everything became darker. Chills ran through his body, as the temperature dropped. To his horror, he saw the waterfall, quickly becoming an ice wall and blocking his only exit.

''You will die here weak pony. And I shall feed on your hatred towards me.'' On the ice wall, a dark face appeared, like it was a window. ''Remember me pony, I am the one who trapped you inside this forgotten cave. Try to survive and take your revenge. Hate me with all your heart!''

Pyromancer angrily stomped his hooves on the ice wall, shouting insults at the unknown, dark unicorn...

He spent days, trying to find something to eat and a place to sleep comfortably and warm. As he ventured deeper into the endless cave, he found wood and frozen supplies, from long lost travelers. He just had to lit up the wood and he will survive...

His hooves were numb from the cold and he wished he could lit up the wood peaces with his mane. With his last energy, he brushed the wooden peaces through his mane and to his surprise, it started smoking. He did it a few times and he soon had a nice fireplace. Jumping around in glee, he tried out a few things with the new found fire source. Lighting up any useless crate in the cave, he really enjoyed it. The light, appearing from nothing made his grin even wider. And when he glanced at his flank...

''I got my mark bitch! How can I be angry at you Simba?!''

And outside, an angry Sombra let him die in the cave. He found the pegasus useless, since he stopped hating him...

One month later, the pegasus gone mad. He started to come up with stories. Stories, that nopony ever thought about before...
He even started talking to the nothingness as well...

''Well, I don't usually meet with other ponies. But if I do, they just call me 'Hay!' or 'You!'. I even forgot my name... come up with one? Oh well... how about... Gravity? Gravity what are you do- no Gravity no! Put me down?'' Not giving a buck about gravity or physics, the pony started floating around the cave, not using his wings. Then he fell on his campfire.

He stayed in the fire for a few seconds, then after he realized where he was, he jumped up! ''Pyromancer!'' He cried out and started putting his hoof inside the fire, trying to get use to the heat and hot flames.

Later, he soon started burning stuff... by lightning up his mane and tail...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''The end?'' Pyromancer finished his little story in a mysterious way...

''Yes... that explains everything...'' Even if he said that from sarcasm, he was impressed by the blue pegasus. Surviving for a long time, in a cold cave... just impressive... ''I wonder what the God of Survivals did to get his title... at his own leg?''

Ponyville was in view and Pyromancer was about to quicken his pace, when...

Traveler stopped immediately. His heart nearly stopped, when he looked at Ponyville...

And the worst thing was... they could already hear an army of sugar dozed pink ponies, approaching them...

Meanwhile...

Saying the most terrifying...

Most blood freezing word...

In an even more horrible...

High pitched voice...

Which was...

''FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, PUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN!''

Pyromancer and Traveler's reaction was expectable...

''FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!''
''BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!''

Author's Note

Here you go. Explanation about Pyromancer, a proper way to leave the Crystal Empire and a sneak peak to the next chapter...

IMPORTANT! School starts, so I will not be able to write that often. I'm going back to my old schedule... hopefully...
Only write at the weekends. From Monday-Friday I'm busy, but if I somehow get enough time, I might write a few words to the next chapter on workdays...
Chapters will be posted after 1-4 weeks, so it will be a long waiting...

I leave all of you with this cliffhanger and I hope to see you all sooner than I think!

Have a good night!

Happy New Year! I have a Rainbow Dash wig, so I'm gonna make the party twenty bucking percent cooler! >:-D

The Definition of Insanity is Pinkie Pie...

The two watched as the horde of Pinkie Pie approached them. Shouting 'FUN!' every time they bounced up, their eyes closed and a ridiculous big grin on their faces.

''Screw you guys! I'm going home!''

And with that, Pyromancer shot out like Rainbow Dash, leaving his signature streak behind him. Meanwhile, Traveler stood there, paralyzed by the friendly Pinkie Pies. (But in his mind, he found them deadly... to your brains...)

His body screamed at him to run away. But he just couldn't move...

And the bouncing horde surrounded him. Traveler stared forward with wide eyes, never taking his eyes off the one Pinkie Pie, who grinned at him evilly from the distance. While the clone Pinkie Pies jumped around him, he fell onto his knees. He stared at the real Pinkie, dumbfounded and one Pinkie Pie clone popped up in front of him, saying 'FUN!' right into his face, before disappearing from his sight. Two Pinkie Pie backflipped next to him, bucking his head from two sides, but he didn't even react to them.

Another one rolled in front of him and started giggling, while another one stared at him, close to his face and with a really disturbing face.
''Processing receiving images in front of me...''
A clone just fell from the sky, landing on the screaming one's head. She gave him a new kind of face, which horrified him even more.

''Denying physics and any kind of level of logic...''
A new Pinkie Pie jumped out of his collars... literally...
''Violating privacy...''
He continued listening to the Pinkie Pies, shouting, yelling, screaming, laughing, giggling and bouncing. (Yes, bouncing. You know, that little noise that her hooves makes, when she jumps up... or is that her flank?)
If they would have stopped saying 'FUN!' , Traveler would still hear it. That single word just echoed in his head, never letting him concentrate. He soon felt a headache coming too...

''Any explanation about these events?'' He thought and tried to think about a logical way, to figure out these clones. But his nose started bleeding and his head started pounding forcefully. He strained his hundreds of years old brain and he suffered for trying to figure out the pink pony.

He fell to the ground and moved into a fetal position, hugging himself. And the cheerful ponies started to become pink bulbs, as he started to lose conscious.

That's when he got a small 'Breaking Point' , which gave him enough strenght to raise his hand and focus, to summon Hunter. The now quiet huge wildcat dragged him out from the clones, knocking away every one of them, who happened to be in his way.

Traveler bounced up and down in Hunter's mouth, as he hold Traveler by the back of his hood. He didn't even care, that his body slammed into the ground several times. He could only watch, as the real Pinkie Pie pouted.

Traveler laughed manically, while Hunter jumped into the bushes and disappeared in the Everfree Forest.

But Pinkie started laughing too, even more manically.
''And that's how you do an evil laugh...''

She looked over her clones and grinned evilly.

''Go minions!''

In the Canterlot throne room, Celestia and Luna waited for Traveler, the Light Spirit (They decided to call Dhuradhan like that, since they didn't know who he was.) and the pony named Pyromancer.

''Any moment...'' Said Celestia, patiently waiting.

Luna groaned and draw another line on her board. ''That's the 68th time you say that, sister...''

''Please be patient Luna!'' Told to her calmly Celestia and continued to look at the doors for the throne room.

Luna sighed and closed her eyes for a moment...

''Aaaany moment...''

''69...''

Celestia looked at her sister...

... then a creepy gaze appeared on her face...

Traveler slapped himself several times, to regain himself. Hunter successfully dragged him away from the death of his brain and he was in the Everfree Forest now. He tried to not think about it, but his mind kept on playing the horrifying images of Pinkie Pies. He took a deep breath and slapped himself one more time, before starting to walk deeper into the woods.

His right hand gloved in purple and red, then his map appeared in front of him. He wasn't surprised to see the scroll, two times bigger than before. This also caused his map, to show even more details, when he zoomed closer on his map. It wasn't like a painted picture, no. It was like looking down at an area from the sky.

He decided to get used to this new ability and zoomed even more closer. He checked out Canterlot, since he wanted to talk with the Princesses. He moved his hands over the map and focused on his energy. Like pulling on something, he grabbed the thin air and moved it to his left...

''Whoaw!'' He yelped.

Just as the map showed only Canterlot, the buildings jumped out of the paper. It was a three dimensional model about Canterlot. The towers sticked out of the paper and a gloving aura surrounded the buildings. He could faintly see the purple roofs and white walls, which were thanks to the purple and red aura, were slightly lavender.

''Amazing...'' He commented and moved his fingers through the castle. They went right through them, like they were just illusions. ''Now that is quiet helpful... what else can you do?''

Map heard him ask the question and flew out from his hand. The huge eagle flew far away from him, faster than before. Traveler noticed the eagles speed. Just like his size, his speed increased too.
Traveler felt a tingling sensation in his right eye. It was from Map and he understood what he wanted from him. The Spirit closed his left eye and focused on his powers. His vision changed and saw Equestria from above. He knew it was Map's point of view and noticed how far he can see. Further than before, that's for sure...
''Looks like his visual range increased too...'' He noted in himself...

He dismissed the spell and opened both of his eyes. He looked at his map and zoomed out from Canterlot. ''So... that's where I have to go...'' He told to himself, poking Canterlot a few times. As he pulled back his fingers, a purple glow appeared on Canterlot city. ''No way!'' He cried out happily. ''Okay, that is really helpful. Map! Show me everything!''

Map obeyed and showed his master everything. The map in Travelers hand started to change.
First, a red dot appeared on the map, somewhere in the Everfree Forest. It was him, Traveler. Next to the red dot, a purple one appeared, showing Map's location too.
A compass appeared on the top right side of the map. It was pointing at Northern-East, exactly where Canterlot was marked.
On the top left side was written, 'Equestria - Everfree Forest'. Under these words, a mini map and it was showing his location and a small area around him.

The other side of the paper started to shine and Traveler turned it around. There, he saw his last made notes titles and it's labels.
There was a picture of a journal and he touched it. Everything disappeared on the scroll and new letters started to appear. Then the letters formed words and soon a proper sentence appeared on the blank scroll.

Greetings Master!

Traveler stared at the greeting and slowly wrote a response. Who are you?

Traveler waited, as the stranger answered. Map, my Master.

The Spirit was quiet surprised to see his eagle communicating with him. After long years of not talking to Map normally, just ordering him, he was taken aback by the eagle's intelligence.
But he soon started grinning and wrote a response: Looks like Sombra's powers improved your skills a lot. I am very pleased with this outcome.

Map quickly answered. Me too Master.

Don't call me 'Master'! We are partners, even if we lacked any kind of way to communicate.

As you wish Traveler.

What else do you have?

I shall look forward for more abilities then.

Thank you. I appreciate it.

Traveler made his map disappear, still wearing a grin. From there, his journeys will be MUCH more easier.

He was sure about that...

Suddenly, some timberwolves ran past him, howling in fear. Then a tree stirred next to him, moving out of it's hiding spot. The moving tree pulled out it's 'legs' from the ground and ran away.

Traveler looked absolutely confused. He thought he got away from all the randomness...

''Wait... randomness?''

Traveler felt the ground shaking under him. Like thousands of footsteps were coming towards him, but twice as much. An army, he assumed.
But the ridiculous music made him turn around slowly.

His blood ran cold...

About hundred meters away, the horde of Pinkie Pies were approaching him. Bouncing, running and FLYING towards him. On the lead, the real Pinkie Pie was riding on another Pinkie Pie and she wore a white mask, which made our hero even more scared...

Ponyville was having it's usual chaos. It was a miracle, that Discord haven't showed up yet. Pinkie Pies were everywhere and the town was having a hard time.

''What are we gonna do Twi?!'' Shouted Rainbow Dash, trying to be louder than those clones around them.

''FUN!''

''I. Don't. KNOW!''

''FUN!''

''Than that's why we have to find Traveler! He can help here!''

Twilight cringed at the mention of the Spirit's name. Ever since they parted at the Crystal Empire, she felt bad for snapping at him. Even if she disagrees with his way of handling of the situation, she was thankful for his help. And she just snapped at him, not letting him relax for a moment and not even saying a short 'thanks' for him.

''I... doubt he will help me, since I yelled at him...'' Twilight hung her head.

''FUN!''

''Well not for you Twilight! But for me!''

''FUN!''

''And why is that?''

''FUN!''

''No offense Twilight, but your first impression was... kinda effected your relationship with him...''

''FUN!''

''Alright! Then find him quickly! This is getting-''

''FUNNY?!''

''OUT OF CONTROL!''

Rainbow immediately flew away, shaking off some clones off from her hooves. They wanted to fly too... why can't they have some fun?

''Did you say fun?''

... I only let the real Pinkie Pie to be that close to my face... STOP BLOCKING THE VIEW! I'm trying to see what is happening!

''Don't you want to have some... 'fun'...?'' A Pinkie Pie looked seductively at the fourth wall...

... let's meet at my place...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Traveler leaned against a tree, catching his breath. He ran far away from the happy mob and even left a distraction for them...

A few moments earlier...
Traveler sent Map to an area, where the clones will definitely spot the eagle. He even told Map, to show how brightly can his wings flame in the afternoon sun.
After hearing a loud 'SHINY!' from behind him, the ground stopped shaking and the silly clones followed Map...

Back to the futu- present...

''Alright, now to find a way to forget about all of this...'' He said out loud and summoned Sprint.

''Let's do some practice, shall we?''

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

In Ponyville, a stallion woke up in his bed. He felt really tired and he felt sore all over his body. The setting sun was visible outside of his window, so he decided to go back to sleep, since it was night soon.

He turned to his right and felt something stirring in front of his face...

He opened his eyes and found himself face to face with a pink, grinning mare...

''That was FUN!''

The stallion's eyes widened and stared dumbfounded at the unknown mare.

''Oh, you still have enough inside you! Let's do another round!''

Before the stallion can protest, the mare pulled herself close to him, locking them in a hungry kiss...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Rainbow saw Map for a second, high above the Everfree Forest. She decided to flew towards him, hoping to find Traveler. But as she got closer to the huge eagle, she started to doubt, that he was Map.

Suddenly, she heard something slam against something and a male voice grunting. She recognized the voice as Traveler's and glided down to the source of the sound. Landing perfectly on the forest ground, not making any sounds, she listened.

*puff*

''Ugh!''

It came from her left, not too far away. She trotted towards the sound and kept on listening...

*Puff*

''Come on Sprint-''

*Puff*

''harder!''

*Puff*

''I can't feel it!''

*PUFF*

''Ah!''

*PUFF*

''Ah, I actually felt that one...''

*PUFF*

''Keep doing that, you're good!''

Rainbow got closer to the sounds and she could make out the sound of something hitting a tree and Traveler's panting and grunting voice...

''Faster, I can't feel it anymore...''

*PUFF*... *PUFF*... *PUFF*

''Faster boy!''

*PUFF* *PUFF* *PUFF*

''Ugh! AH! Uff!''

Rainbow stopped immediately. She did a double take, making sure that she heard it right. But the rhythmical sound of something slamming against something and Traveler's grunting and panting was making her curious. As she got even more closer, the 'something slamming into something' changed in her mind to 'somepony slamming against somepony'. The panting sound was probably from an exhausting physical work and the 'grunting in pain' turned into 'grunting in pleasure' in her head. She soon blushed and started to think about some dirty things...

''Are they... doing it?'' She blushed and started grinning. ''I must see that tehhehhe...''

Wearing a grin, she stepped out from behind the trees and...

Her grin disappeared...

Behind Sprint, Traveler was in a fighting position. Sprint was trying to buck him in different places and Traveler blocked, dodged and parried the kicks. His reflexes was fast, but Sprint's amazingly fast legs hit him from time to time.

''Are you bucking kidding me?!''

Traveler stopped, as he just grabbed Sprints hoof. Sprint slowly placed his leg back on to the ground and winked at the pegasus. Her slowly calming down wings immediately shot back up, a clearly visible blush on her face.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''And- hehhe- here comes the funny part- hehhe - we need your help hehhe...''

''Hahhhaaa... yeah, that is pretty funny hehhhe- FUCK NO!''

''I knew you wi- what?''

''I am not going to help you.''

''B... but why?''

''That illogical demon kills my brain and I'm trying to hide from her...''

Traveler and Rainbow Dash was wandering around the Everfree Forest. Rainbow just followed him, since he looked like he was heading to somewhere. It wasn't that long, after they ended up at Zecora...

While Rainbow just waited for him to get some kind of special... ingredient... she tried to come up with a way, to ask him for help. But she had no idea how to ask him properly...

''Why do you need those leaves anyway? Are you making soup too?''

Traveler held out the strange leaf towards her face. ''Sniff it!''

Rainbow sniffed the leaf and frowned at it's smell. ''Bleh, this smells terrible...''

''But it's effect is useful right now...'' Traveler said, putting away the awful leaf.

''What does it do?''

''... calms your nerves...''

They continued walking deeper into the forest. Rainbow followed him again, since she had nothing better to do. Meanwhile, Traveler pulled out some kind of small bag. It had a ball shape and a small rod was sticking out of it. He pulled out a silver object and moved it close to the stick. With an easy move, fire appeared on top of the silver object, when he brushed his fingers against it.

''What is that?'' Asked Rainbow Dash, amazed by his interesting object.

''A lighter...'' After his answer, he lit up the stick and it started burning down slowly. He put away the lighter and held the burning bag in his hands. ''I'm going to chill for a while, so see you later...'' And he continued walking next to her.

Rainbow expected him to ride away (It was still funny for her to say that, so it always made her blush...) or do something... anything. But nothing happened...

''Aren't you going or wha-''

''FUN! FUN! FUN! FUN! FUN!''

Suddenly, the clone Pinkie Pies jumped out of the bushes and trees. But before anypony can react, Traveler dropped the bag onto the ground and it sent a massive smoke cloud around the area. While the Pinkie Pies ran into each other, Rainbow quickly started to make a small tornado, clearing out the area.

When the smoke disappeared, Traveler was nowhere to be found...

A Pinkie Pie pouted at Rainbow. ''I want a pony ride...''

Facehoofing, Rainbow flew back to Ponyville...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Somewhere in the Everfree Forest, a slightly visible light could be seen in a cave. The night has fell on Equestria and the Night Princess soared through the starry night sky.

Luna left Canterlot to find Traveler. And since her sister went to bed really soon for unknown reasons, she decided to find him and tell him the news. ''I just said 87 and she just looked at me creepily... what is wrong with Tia?''

The light coming out from a cave picked up Luna's interest and she glided down to look inside. For some reason, she had a feeling that she will find Traveler there...

As she landed before the cave entrance, she saw Pyromancer and Traveler, leaning against a rock. Before them, a small campfire lighting up the dark cave. In Traveler's fingers, a paper like stick burning and filling the cave with a terrible smell...

''Traveler?'' Luna walked over to them.

The two looked up at the towering Alicorn. When Pyromancer looked up at her, his eyes widened and his own burning stick fell out of his mouth. He mumbled a quiet 'Angel of the Night.' and he passed out from her beauty...

Traveler looked through her, like she was just an illusion. He raised the burning stick to his mouth and inhaled. The burning point on the paper, burned brighter for a second and he pulled the stick out from his mouth. He blew out a huge amount of smoke and he lazily watched it flying and fading away.

''Traveler?'' Luna tried to snap him out of his trance.

''Not home...'' He answered, mumbling a few more things.

''Stop playing this game Traveler! We waited for you at Canterlot. What are you doing here?'' Luna frowned.

Traveler finally looked up at her eyes. He was taken aback when he made eye contact, like he didn't notice that she was there. After inhaling another amount of smoke, he blew it out, making small circles out from the smoke.

''Hiding... and chilling...'' He finally answered.

''Hiding from... what exactly?''

Traveler looked outside the cave. The moon shone inside the cave and after another drag from his smoking stick, he started...

''Did I ever tell you... the definition... of insanity?'' Traveler waited for Luna to response and she shook her head. Traveler chuckled and stood up. ''Hm... the definition of insanity... is...'' He inhaled the smoke and started speaking again. ''... doing the same thing...'' He exhaled and walked right into the cloud of smoke, which he just blew out. ''... over and over again.'' He started walking around the cave, looking at the walls and glancing back at Luna from time to time.

''You know, a hermit told me that... and I just laughed at him. But... after a few years of traveling... I started to realize... that he was fucking right the whole time!'' He chuckled and took another drag from his smoke. ''You see, everywhere I looked... everywhere I went... I did the same fucking thing... over and over and over and over again. And it was running and hiding...'' He looked outside the cave, making sure that no more clones were around him. ''Like... I can get away from my problems by running away...'' He started chuckling again. ''Hehhehe... how fucking wrong I was... And look at me now! I'm doing the same over fucked thing again... Hiding from a brain killer, logic murder and physics raper.''

Traveler walked in front of Luna, looking into her eyes. Luna could only stare at him, shocked by his attitude. And his eyes were different. A slight red and purple glow and he wasn't really focusing on her.

''This... is insanity...'' He continued smoking his stuff.

''Traveler... I can help you. Just let me know what you need.'' Luna told him.

''I want to just lay down and sleep, but I can't.'' Traveler sat back to his place, next to a passed out Pyromancer.

''Why? You never told me...''

Traveler sighed, before inhaling a huge amount of smoke and blowing it towards the passed out pegasus. Pyromancer woke up and his jaw dropped and kept looking at Luna like that.

''If I fall asleep, I would never be able to wake up... unless if someone wakes me up. And I don't think that someone would be friendly. That someone can be a Follower too...'' Traveler explained, closing Pyromancer's mouth and placing his dropped stick into his mouth.

Luna started smiling. ''I can wake you up if you want... and I can visit you in your dreams. I have some important things to tell you too... What do you say?''

No matter how high he was, Traveler immediately payed close attention to Luna. ''You have to use magic, to wake me up...'' Luna nodded. ''Alright... let's do it! See you in there...''

And with that, Traveler closed his eyes. After a few minutes, his body went limp. His breathing slowed down, to the point, where one would think he's dead. For the first time (After a long time of course...), his muscles relaxed, completely.

The Traveling Horseman...

After many long years...

... fell asleep...

While Pyromancer watched Luna, (Seeing the most beautiful thing in his life...) Luna examined Traveler. She noticed slight movement from his body and his expression changed. He soon started to breath sharply and his body shivered.

Luna quickly placed her horn on his forehead and concentrated. Her energy connected each other's mind and Luna soon felt her magical self, getting transported into something...

or more like into somepony...

and actually into someone...

''Wha... what is that?'' Luna said, shocked by the scene in front of her...

Author's Note

I passed the 'half year exams' in my school. That means, I am allowed to continue learning at there. I was good enough to be in that school and twenty students had to leave...
Teacher from a few months earlier: ''Hmm... this class has 38 students... don't worry, many of you will be out of here soon...''
Teacher after a few months: ''Looks like some of you did leave this school. See? I told you in September: Many of you will be out of here...''
How kind?
That also fucks up my schedule. Since this was just a 'practice month' , to see how good are we, they decided to make our time harder. So from now, every tuesday, I have 8 lessons. That means, I will be at home at around 16:30... dead tired. (Just to let you know, tuesday is a hard day. Wednesday is easy, so I sometimes wrote on tuesdays. But since they bucked up my schedule, I will just rest at tuesdays instead...)
I will spend more time to learn and that will effect these chapters...
Expect chapters more rarely... >:|

ABOUT THE STORY:
If you haven't read my last blog post and you want to know about Traveler's new adventures, then go and read it.
I only say one thing about my future plans:
You're mind will be blown... >:D

NEXT CHAPTER:
Ohhhohhoooo! This will be awesome to write! Big things will happen! >:D

Revealing Memories Pt. 1: The Nature of a Spirit...

''Wha... what is that?''
Luna was shocked by the scene in front of her.

She appeared to be floating in space, like she was on the moon again. The feeling of zero gravity stirred some bad memories from her past, but she quickly regained herself. She kept thinking that it's just Traveler's dream and she soon calmed herself down.

After regaining herself, she watched...

Traveler was standing on the edge of a floating rock. Luna couldn't see his face, since she was behind him. But he stood there strangely, his shoulders let down. He wasn't in his usual 'ready' state and she felt his emotion... sorrow.

Luna followed his gaze and gasped. There was a planet in front of her, cut in two pieces. The still remaining gravity, which the half destroyed planet had, kept the two piece in place. But between the two piece, a faint light started to die out.

''No...'' Traveler said, faintly.

The light died out and Luna could feel a huge amount force building up around the dying planet. Then it got surrounded by shadows and exploded. Traveler was sent flying backwards, slamming against one of the sticking out cliff on the huge, floating rock.

The force of the explosion destroyed the nearby rocks, but the one where Luna and Traveler were on was intact. Traveler slowly floated down from the top of the sticking out cliff, where he was slammed into. Like someone was placing him down, he landed on his knees, his eyes were looking down.

From the corner of her eyes, a woman started walking towards Traveler. She wore a red cape, coming out from her wide, black shoulder plates. On top of her long, blonde hair, a black crown, with a red gem on the front side. Her black, high-heeled boots could be heard, but Traveler kept looking at the ground.

On the woman's snow white face, a disappointed and furious expression. Her eyes glowed in white and stopped in front of Traveler.

''You...'' Her voice was filled with hatred. Traveler didn't budge. ''You did this to me...'' She stopped and watched Traveler's reaction. ''TO MY PEOPLE!'' She boomed and backhanded him in the face.

Traveler looked back at her, quickly regaining from the hit. His face showed regret and sadness, but he did not speak.

''YOU LET MY PEOPLE DIE, BECAUSE YOU WERE IGNORANT!'' She slapped him again, both of his cheeks were red now. ''AND THANKS TO YOU, MY PLANET IS DESTROYED! YOU SAID YOU WILL HELP US, BUT YOU LET US DIE BY THE CORRUPTION!''

Traveler just looked at her and that made her more furious. She punched him and the zero gravity made him slam against the bottom of the cliff. He was leaning against the rock by his back and she stepped closer to him.

She leaned over him, while he hung his head. ''We... we shared the same bed... how could you do that to me?'' Her voice cracked. ''You swore to your life... that you protect... my people...'' A tear fell down from her white eyes.

But those white eyes quickly turned to black and high, Dark energy flowed through her. ''FOR THAT, I SHALL TAKE YOUR LIFE!'' She boomed again and her left hand started to glow in dark flames.

Traveler looked up at her, a single tear ran down on his hurt cheek...

''I am terribly sorry...''

What Luna saw, made her yelp in shock...

A Golden Cross was in Traveler's hand, which he used to stab the woman, right in her heart...

The woman was looking at him, eyes wide by the sudden pain in her chest. Her red robe had blood marks on it and a white light was coming out from her chest, where Traveler stabbed her.

Traveler quickly caught her, before she fell back. He held her by her waist and let go of the cross, allowing his hand to hold her head. She started to breath heavily, feeling the life seeping out from her and getting sucked into the cross.

''I really am sorry, but... you broke the rules of the Light... Miss Floya'...'' Traveler explained, his voice trembling. ''Your research about Dark powers was already made the Elders disappointed. But when you left with no words... taking all the information with you... they called me...''

''But... my people... needed a... place to... live...'' Floya' started, trying to breath. ''They... looked up at me... and loved me... as their queen... I... only wanted to... make them... happy...''

''I know... but your actions were too dangerous. You practically taunted the Elders to eliminate you... and since the Avatar had to be restrained, they called me. I'm sorry... if I knew what were you trying to do was something that you had no idea about... I wouldn't made this decision... I would have helped you... to make a beautiful world... but I already promised them to end your life...'' Traveler told her, trying his best to force back the tears.

Floya' looked towards her destroyed world, her face filled with hatred and disbelief. ''I only blame you... you played with me... lied to me... used me... My whole world... my people... man, woman... child... everyone... because of you...'' She turned her head towards him, her body started to fade away. ''I curse you Horseman... and since... you left us to our doom... let the shadows follow you everywhere... where you run... where you hide... they will find you... and hunt you... even in your dreams... they will get you... and kill you... No matter who is around... they bring death to them too... you monster...''

Before her body could disappear in the Golden Cross, she used her last energy to create a small explosion of Dark energy. Then she disappeared into the cross, as it dropped to the ground. It shone for a few seconds, then it sealed the evil power and stopped shining.

As Traveler picked it up, a blood freezing roar could be heard from the destroyed planet. Traveler knew he doesn't have time to waste, before the dangerous creatures find him. He looked over the destroyed and blown up planet. It's pieces flowed around space, still burning.

''I see you did it...''

Traveler's grip around the cross tightened. He knew that voice, one of the Guardian Angel from the Light. The Elders sent him... Traveler knew it...

Traveler turned around and presented the cross. ''That probably means you're not blind...'' Traveler commented.

The Angel ignored his comment. ''Then give me the cross. I have to take it back to-''

''To you ignorant, heartless leader? Who just play with his little toe lickers like you?''

''HOW DARE YOU SPEAK ABOUT HIM WITH SUCH A TONGUE?!''

''Like this.''

''YOU WILL APOLOGIZE NOW!''

''Who has the cross again?'' Traveler wiggled the cross around his fingers, looking dead seriously at the furious Angel.

''Give me the cross and you may be forgiven!''

''Fine...'' Traveler said and held out the cross. The Angel spread out his wings, showing to Traveler, how ranked he was. But he cared less about it...

When the Angel reached for the cross, Traveler grabbed his hand, pulled the surprised Angel before him and stabbed the cross into the base of his back, where the two wings met. ''... but I don't forgive YOU!'' Traveler shouted and pushed the cross deeper inside the Angel's back, who was paralyzed by the harshly incoming power. The cross contained high amount of power. And this power was the Avatar's...

He couldn't scream, his muscles stopped working. The point where Traveler impaled the cross was a nerve point, which can stop the full body system. Meanwhile, Traveler grunted and shouted, as he pushed and even hit the cross, to get it fully inside the Angel's body. Luna cringed and shivered several time, as she could nearly feel that. She knew how uninviting that part is, she knew that from experience...

Only an inch was sticking out from the flesh. Traveler jumped up and double kicked it with both legs. He used his energy, to make the kick stronger and it sent the Angel flying towards the destroyed planet, where nothing remained.

''YOU LITTLE, UNGRATEFUL PIECE OF SHIT!'' Traveler shouted after him.

As he reached his Breaking Point, he started to destroy all the other smaller planets in that world. Even the flowing rocks, which were in his way. Everything was a target for him. His whole body glowed in green, blue and purple and his shouting could be heard from everywhere in that world..

Luna spent days, watching him as he teared open planet after planet. His energy dying down slowly, as only the rocks remained...
''So this is what he's afraid of... turning into a monster again, like he just did here... but there is something else... hm...'' Luna noted and hummed. There was nothing she could do now, but watch...

Suddenly, the whole place started to disappear. A bright light blocked the view and Luna had to shield her eyes...

Then nothing...

Author's Note

Short chapter, I know. But consider it as a small bite and a late update, since I couldn't post a chapter last weekend.

The next chapter has over 8k words and I still need to fix the grammar and put more detail into it.

You read it well! ''Avatar...'' This means Dhuradhan will be in the next chapter? Yes, deal with it.

More updates in the next chapter soon. Probably tomorrow or at the weekend, with the last part of this 'Revealing Memories' series. I worked on that all week, so there will be a long break after this.
More info in my blog posts...

Good night!

Revealing Memories Pt. 2: Two Fighters Against The Past

The next thing Luna saw made her confused. She was in some kind of cave, but not a natural one. It was like somepony curved it out. There was some kind of altar on the far side of the cave. Leading up to that altar were footmarks, splitting the room to two place. But the footmarks were strange, like those humanoids weren't wearing boots. Traveler talked about this to her and she assumed that the humanoids weren't wearing boots. But the question was why? The floor was so hard, they needed boots to walk comfortable on those stones.

But as she examined the footmarks, she saw some drops of blood. ''What happened here?'' She thought.

She turned to the altar, which was glowing in red, because of the crimson candles. Unknown symbols were painted on the wall, behind the altar... with blood...
Chains were hanging from both sides of the altar and even more, bloody and rusty chains everywhere in the cave.

The whole place was terrifying for Luna...

''AH!''

''EEP!''

Luna yelped and turned around. There was Traveler, sitting on the floor. He was breathing heavily, his eyes wide like he had a nightmare. He was in his robe, which he was wearing when he appeared in Equestria.

Luna looked behind him and saw several dead bodies, bloody and of course... dead. The bodies had only one lethal injury, but they still looked horrible. Some of them had their skin cut down, some had limbs missing, teared open jaws or chests. Some of them didn't even have skin, nor flesh. Just the skeletal structure.
She saw creatures, like those followers or a few winged bipedal. Many other kind of dead creature, each one was some kind of bipedal too, but had spikes covering their body, claws, wings and horns.
But most importantly... all of them looked terrible...

''AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!''

Luna jumped again and Traveler slowly turned towards the shout, still looking terrified...

There was another human, like Traveler. He was wearing some kind of dark and 'combined clothing'. Luna never saw such a thing like a hood, attached to a long-sleeved shirt. And she never saw a zipper on a long-sleeved shirt neither. But it looked like it makes up to its work, as the hood covered the upper side of the man's face. From under the black 'hooded sleeve shirt' , came up a grey scarf, covering his nose and mouth.

Luna made a note to self: She will ask Traveler later that, why do humans like him hide their faces with masks and hoods...

The man also wore black trousers, made by some really soft material. And the end of his trousers were tucked behind his grey boots. On his boot, a knife strapped to it's side, just like Traveler has one there too... another thing to ask from Traveler...

The tip of his fingers were sticking out from his black gloves, another thing that Luna never saw before... but she had to agree, they looked cool. Maybe she will get something like that...
She could see something sticking out from under his sleeves. It was around his wrists, so she assumed it was some kind of armor.

While Luna was examining the two's cloths, Traveler calmed down. The same couldn't be said from the other man.
He started breathing harshly, his hands formed into fists and he stood up. ''YOU SON OF A BITCH! I'M GONNA KILL YOU! UGH!'' He shouted and kicked away a corpse's head, sending blood around him.

In his rage, he harshly pulled down his mask and bobbed his head back, making the hood to fall down from his head. Now Luna could see his face...

He had shorter hair than Traveler and it was brown. His hair length on his front reached the middle of his forehead. It must have been 7 cm long and most of his hair was brushed towards the left side.
He had blue and green eyes. The right one was blue and the left one was green. Luna was familiar with that kind of thing from Equestria. Some ponies have this problem with their eyes, jet this one was different.
The eye color problem was because of the energy inside him...

Luna shook away the bad memories. She knew what happened to this human. The same happened to her, when she turned into Nightmare Moon...

And the signs were visible on his snarling expression...
His teeth were somewhat sharper than Travelers, but they were the same specie! Lune repeatedly tried to not think about her past. ''No! You went through this and you can't stop his transformation neither! It's just a dream...''

Traveler slowly stood up and tried to say something. But the man already stomped to the altar and started running his eyes through the thing. He placed his fingers on some relics, blew out the candle and he waited. Like he was expecting something to happen. After a few seconds, he stepped closer to the altar and touched the symbol.

After a few seconds of waiting for something, he shouted one and head butted the wall. He stayed like that for a short moment, bent forward and blood trickling down on his face and the wall. In his anger, he slammed his fist onto the altar, making the relics fall to their sides.

''He got away!'' He said, turning back to Traveler. ''He. Got. AWAY!''

Traveler calmly spoke up. ''We can still catch him.''

The man wasted no time and stormed out from the cave. Traveler quickly caught up with him. ''What did he put you through? Mine was a memory from the past...'' Traveler asked him, but the man stayed silent and continued snarling.

They stepped out from the cave and Luna found herself on a beach. The cave entrance was hidden between the rocks, facing towards the waves. She looked higher and saw the top of a vulcan. Lava was flowing out from it's crater and the earth was rumbling from it's eruption.
There was a huge ship on the edge of the shore. It's sails were white, blue lines decorated it's sides, along with the cannons and side cannons on the deck. (She didn't know what they were...)
There were some cheering and singing inside the ship, like the crew was having a celebration...

''There he is!'' The man pointed towards a silhouette, far away from the shore.

They wasted no time and jumped down from the entrance, both of them rolling in the sand, to ease their landing. After glancing back, the man hummed and spoke up. ''He left the gates... completely abandoning his duty and now he leaves no signs behind. We have to catch that coward, or he opens another gate somewhere else...''

While Traveler's eyes started to glow in purple, to inspect the fleeing ship, the man rushed towards the ship on the shore and slammed against it. The cheering stopped for a moment, then continued. But when both Traveler and the man slammed against the ship, the whole thing was ready to go.

The two ran to the side of the ship, pulling out the ropes from the ground, which were preventing the ship to move away from the beach. Both of them climbed onto the ship and the drunken crew immediately snapped to attention.

Traveler was about to give the orders, but the man started shouting first. ''What the fuck are you all doing here, staring at me like nothing happened?! FULL SAIL AFTER THAT SHIP, NOW!''

The sailors quickly started working, pulling and loosening on the ropes. The captain went up to the wheel and started shouting orders too. Traveler saw their unhappiness and decided to cheer them up. ''If we catch that rat, you all have the whole ship and it's treasures!''

The whole ship roared from excitement and they started doing their job even faster. Traveler chuckled lightly and turned towards his teammate. But he wasn't there, but at the front of the ship. Traveler walked up to him and did the same thing like the man.
Watch the fleeing ship...

Traveler glanced at him from time to time, watching his anger rising. The man was looking deadly at the ship in the distance, his fists gripping the thin air. Traveler sighed and spoke up.

''You look angrier than ever.'' He pointed out.

''And you're surprised? That bitch just fucked our minds and got away. Why the fuck shouldn't I be angry?'' The man pointed out, flashing a snarl at Traveler.

The two continued watching the ship in the distance, in silence. Than the man growled. ''He made me do it...''

Traveler turned to him, waiting for him to continue.

''He made me fucking do it... He knew I can do it and EXPECTED ME to do it!''

''And what did he force you to do exactly?'' Traveler asked, sounding curious and somewhat uncomfortable. Luna assumed he was still shaken by the events back at that cave, but he was actually afraid of the man's words.

After some silence, the man answered...

''He... he put me through a test... live or die. And you know what would have happened if I die in my head.''

''You lose your soul.'' Traveler said, eyes wide.

''Exactly... and he wasn't just torturing me with physical assaults or some fucking mind games, no. He wanted to know how much humanity I lost already... AND SO, THAT SICK SON OF A BITCH ... used her!''

''Who?''

''... a girl...''

Traveler fully turned towards him, his face showed pure shock and disgust. ''What... did you have to do?'' He asked the man, slowly.

The man's once calmed posture changed in a second, as he slammed his fist into the hand rail of the ship. ''I KILLED HER, ONLY TO SEE HIM DISAPPEARING RIGHT IN FRONT OF MY FACE!'' The sailors looked at the man, then quickly went back to work, not wanting to get killed by the angry human. ''DO YOU HAVE ANY FUCKING IDEA HOW DOES IT FEEL?! TO DRINK THE BLOOD OF AN INNOCENT?! TO SEE HER FACE, AS YOU END HER LIFE?! HER SOUL, LOOKING AT YOU BROKEN AND FILLED WITH SORROW?!
I. BROKE. MY. OWN. RULE! I NEVER KILLED AN INNOCENT SOUL AND THAT BITCH FUCKING MADE ME DO IT!''

Traveler closed his eyes, starting to regret his question and cursed his curiosity. The man's snarl reached it's full size, his teeth showing it's slightly sharp edges. Under his furrowed eyebrows, eyes looking deadly at Traveler. His arms were trembling, as he couldn't tighten his fists any stronger. As the man's sharp breathing continued, along with his shouting, ''Listen up!'' he turned around and the crew snapped at attention, looking at him and expecting their deaths. ''I want to catch up with that ship, THEN KILL EVERYONE ON THE BOARD! No mercy, no sorry and absolutely fucking NOTHING! Am I clear, or I have to beat my orders inside your brains?!''

Even if the man looked intimidating, all the sailors pulled out their rusty swords and cheered. This was probably the best day in their lives. Sailing, hunting, killing and most importantly... treasures.

Traveler walked next to the man and placed a hand on his shoulder, making him to turn around and look at him. ''What are you doing Dhuradhan? What about the Balance? If he dies, the war between The Light and Hell just becomes more violent.'' Traveler explained.

''Ha! It can't get any more violent. It IS already violent as fuck! I... want to kill him and make him suffer. I get his eyes, so no one... EVER have to experience such agony.'' The man named Dhuradhan, told to Traveler.

''And what about you? The Avatar supposed to hold his or her own Balance too. But now you are leaning to the Dark side.''

Dhuradhan stepped closer to him, looking right into his eyes. ''Maybe I'm on my Dark side... but I still do this for the Balance... And you know that too.'' He pointed out.

''What are you talking about?'' Asked Traveler, confused.

Dhuradhan laughed. ''Like you don't know that I heard what you did...''

Traveler lowered his head, looking seriously at him. ''Go on!''

Dhuradhan motioned for him to follow him and both of them walked to the main mast of the ship. That's when Luna got to know what is under his sleeves. Dhuradhan cut half a rope, which came out from above his fist. It looked like Traveler's claws, but not as long as his and it had two, curved blade, not three talons to climb. She knew it was a combat weapon, not a supportive tool.

As he cut the rope, it started to go up and he quickly grabbed it, lifting himself onto the top of the mast. He moved to the right side of the sail, crouching all the while. He watched as Traveler did the same thing and went after him.

The two stood on the right side of the sail, watching the sun setting. Luna was about to rise the moon, when she remembered that it was just a dream. And that's where a question popped into her head: ''Who controls the sun here?'' Though, she heard that from Traveler, that only Equestria can control their sun and moon. But she was still curious about that. What if there is another world like Equestria, or dimension?

She decided to pounder about this later, since the two started to talk again...

''I must say, your first breaking point just brought me a good future.'' Dhuradhan started.

''What do you mean?''

''Floya'... I know what happened to her...''

Traveler looked at him, shocked and somewhat hurt in the inside. ''How?''

Dhuradhan looked at him and reached inside his 'hooded sleeve shirt' (Luna doesn't know what a hoodie is...) and pulled out a really familiar cross. Both Luna and Traveler gasped. ''Captain Martin's blood tainted this cross... MY cross... her power was enough to re-learn all of my light abilities and send the Captain to...'' Dhuradhan patted his right shoulder. ''... Hell... if you know what I'm trying to explain...''

''You got his soul?'' Blurted out Traveler.

''I found no use of his soul, so I sent him to the Lord of the Hell.''

''You did WHA-''

''Shut it! I don't want to scare the crew, so stay quiet!'' Traveler nodded and Dhuardhan continued. ''Believe me when I say... that punishment is far better than just trap him in The Scythe.''

Traveler stared at him for a few moments, the sighed. ''Alright, you know what you have to do. I am no Light, nor a Dark and I am certainly not the Death itself...''

Dhuradhan chuckled, finding his choice of words amusing. ''The point is, your action started this HUGE coincidence. Up there, the Elders thought they can hide my cross inside the Captain, since no one defeated him yet. Hehhe... but not from me... he even failed to hide his own identity. The cross was the key for me, to cure myself out from my own shit hole. And if you wouldn't humiliate him-''

''I did not do that!'' Protested Traveler. ''That was because of the 'Breaking Point' , not to find satisfaction in making him feel the pain.''

Dhuradhan smirked, evilly. ''And you know what? When I reach my OWN breaking point, I WILL find that satisfaction in torturing that sick fuck.''

Traveler looked like he wanted to talk him down from that, but he decided to just warn him. ''You're not gonna be able to sleep for a long time... even if you won't take those eyes.''

''The Observers Eyes of the Sinner...'' Started Dhuardhan.

Traveler continued. ''... enchanted by the Balance Elders, many years ago...''

''... and they gave it to an empty soul...'' Dhuardhan.

''... to see whose soul is Light...'' Traveler.

''... and whose Dark...'' Closed his eyes Dhuardhan.

''This empty soul is the Gatekeeper...'' Traveler continued.

''... whose purpose in life is to chose the wrong souls...''

''... and lead them to the Limbo...''

''You shall fear from these eyes...'' Started the next line Dhuardhan.

''Or you get mind fucked!''

The two looked to their left, seeing the captain. He wasn't even trying to keep his balance on the sail, like it was an average thing to do. He was talking in a strange accent, like every other pirate captain. ''Good news warriors! This beauty is FAR prettier than that ghost ship. That witch is nothing against my darling, so we should be able to raid that wreck in a few days. Why don't you two join us down there? You two look like those sneaky ninja invaders from the modern sea...'' The captain explained, adjusting his pirate hat.

Traveler wanted to say something to Dhuardhan, but he was faster... again. ''Leave me alone for now! I need some time to think, to plan and prepare. I'll join you later...'' And with that, he jumped to the other sail, a few meters away from them and climbed to the top. There, he settled down, crouching on the very top of the mast.

Traveler sighed and decided to drink some. He wanted to forget about the past and look forward the future. He also liked traveling on ships too. He doesn't have to hold onto Sprint's straps, so he wont fall down. The sound of waves hitting the side of the boat was calming and the scenery was simply beautiful.

But the best thing was the company...

As Traveler went down under the deck, where the cabins and dining area were, the catching music already made him forget about the past events and went to drink with the crew.

Luna watched Dhuradhan for a few minutes, as he was talking to... someone else...
It was really strange for her, but soon understood his situation. ''His dark self is talking to him... but looks like he is the one who controls his thoughts. It's still an unstable situation and really dangerous. And after what happened to this two, his emotions must have been shattered... just... like... mine...''

Luna quickly snapped herself out from her thoughts. She decided to try and forget about her past... by joining the celebration down the deck.

The music was catchy and she found herself singing too. Even dancing as an invisible ghost, bringing her amusement and she giggled all the time. Sadly, she couldn't drink with them, but seeing Traveler, finally enjoying his dream or more like his memory, she was happy...

This is how two days of chasing went by. Traveler had fun with the crew, Luna checked on Dhuradhan, who always stayed on top of the mast and she went back to Traveler's side, watching him. In daylight, he was on board and helped the crew, then at night, he and everyone else had a party. Except Dhuradhan, who looked like he was suffering from insomnia...

Since Luna was in Traveler's dream/memory, she was able to stay awake all the time. After everyone went to sleep, she always found a good place on the sails and a few meters away from Dhuradhan. No matter how much she wanted to forget about her past, she wanted to see him, going through the same thing like her. She wanted to know, how will he deal with the situation and if he can survive it.

Every night, she listened as he was talking to someone... someone named Dhanthas. She soon found out that HE was the one, who helped defeating Sombra... or at least, he has some kind of connection with that person.
This made her more curious and spent just as much time watching him as watching Traveler. And when she just wanted to sit and watch, she choose the basket on top of the main mast. She spent hours, watching the sun rising, setting and the moon rising and setting. It was so strange for her, because she didn't have to use her magic to lower the moon or rise it. It just went up on it's own and that made her feel kinda strange...

On the last night, Dhuradhan stirred. ''FINALLY!'' Thought Luna and watched him gliding down from the mast. He left a black and blue trail of energy behind him. Luna immediately know what that meant. ''Hm... That is that 'Dark' energy, mixed with his own energy, which is blue. Blue energy is 'Destructive', but I only sense swiftness in him. Traveler has the same blue energy too, along with his green 'Additional' energy and his purple 'Supportive' and 'other' kind of energy. I remember everything from his lecture about energies, but his description is not correct! Is that Dhuradhan something else and Traveler too? Both of them Spirits, so they have to be the same! Does he lied to me? Looks like I have to ask him later...''

And so, Luna watched as Traveler danced and drank through the night, while Dhuradhan only sat at the bar and drank beer after beer...

Luna spent that night inside Dhuradhan's cabin, since he get knocked out next to a barrel. She thought about that two days she spent inside Traveler's memory. She was able to realize, that he is afraid of his own past. When he reached his Breaking Point, he destroyed a whole world and he doesn't want to do that again.

She also found out, that Traveler looks at Dhudadhan carefully, expecting the supernatural man to snap at any moment. She heard him saying out loud: ''God help us if he reaches a Breaking Point.'' And Luna agreed with that. Traveler has a calm mind and if he could ruin a world, then she doesn't want to see that Avatar in a state like that.

''What does he meant by, 'Breaking his own rules'? He killed a child in his mind, that's not just breaking a rule, it's unforgivable!'' She thought.

In the morning, Luna saw Traveler walking up to Dhuradhan, as he was lying on the ground. She found his position odd. He was holding his own chest, like he was in pain. Traveler also saw that and approached him more carefully. Luna and Traveler thought the same thing: ''Do not snap. Do not snap. Just. Do. Not. Snap...''

''Balance!'' Traveler stopped in front of the sleeping man.

Dhuradhan stirred and woke up, breathing harshly. ''What?'' He asked Traveler.

''Wake up, the captain wants to talk to us.'' Traveler offered him a helping hand, but Dhuradhan refused it and stood up on his own, grunting the whole time. ''Are you alright? You knocked yourself out really bad.''

''It's not the drink... from time to time, my heart just starts stinging... and that bitch gave me nightmares...'' Dhuradhan explained and stretched out, his whole backside popping several times.

''Same here...''

As they were about to go up the stairs, which lead to the top of the deck, an ear shattering 'boom' could be heard and the wall behind the two exploded. Luna jumped in fright, since she was standing right next to the wall. Though she was invincible in this memory, she doesn't know what will happen next.

The next thing Luna saw, was Traveler lying on his back, arms in front of his face. Dhuradhan was lying on the ground, face first and his left shoulder was hurt. ''What the fuck?!'' He shouted in anger and pain and both of them stood up quickly.

''WE'RE UNDER ATTACK! AGH!'' A sailor tried to ran up to the deck, when a cannon ball crashed through the side of the ship, making a hole in the wall and crushing the sailors head.

Both Traveler and Dhuradhan ignored the bloody mess on the stairs and glanced outside, through the holes. They immediately started running down the corridor behind them, the walls exploding to pieces. The two jumped into another room and the cannon balls flew over them.

To their right, the ceiling started to collapse and they jumped back against the left side. But as soon as they hit the wall, another round of cannon balls shot past them. One hit Traveler's right leg, making him to fall down and shout out in pain. And Dhuradhan got another hit on his right elbow, paralyzing his right limb too.

After they collected themselves, they hardly crawled out from the room, through the hole in the ceiling. They found themselves in the middle of a fight, as the crew tried to fight against the ghost ship and it's undead sailors.

The ghost ship fired it's projectiles, killing the pirates and the undead sailors too. The enemy crew soon noticed the two fighter on the deck, injured. With a battle cry, they charged at the two...

Luna watched Traveler, summoning Hunter and Sprint, while he called back Map and used his claws to slice down every undead in one spot. He leaned against his left leg, but he could still deal with the incoming strikes from every direction.

Dhuradhan got separated from him, since he could use his legs. He mostly kicked down the undead from the ship, or delivered a harder kick to their necks, sending their heads flying away. But sometimes, he moved around his upper body, to make his arms swing and hit the undead in the weak points. But his arms were hurt, so he stayed with the kicking and head butting.

Hunter and Sprint just crashed through the horde of undead sailors, sending body parts everywhere. Soon, the ship was cleared and Dhuradhan walked up to Traveler. Traveler needed no other words, he popped Dhuradhan's left shoulder back to it's place, making him shout in agony. After he let loose of the shout, he grabbed his own right elbow and pulled on it once. And of course, he cried out in pain again.

Then, Dhuradhan grabbed Traveler's right toe and stepped onto his belly. Traveler grabbed his leg on his belly and started pushing himself away from Dhuradhan, who pulled on his leg. And Traveler's knee popped back to it's place and they both stood up, panting.

Luna already stopped looking at them and cringed at the popping sounds of their sprained joints. She decided to examine the undead crew. Some of them had different kind of chains, going through their bodies. Some of them were just a skeleton or they looked like normal humans. Luna recognized them, as the bodies in that cave. Like they came back to life, just to kill Traveler and that Avatar.

She also examined the ghost ship, which was about to disappear in the fog. ''So that's why they couldn't react in time! The fog!'' She realized and turned back to the now ready Traveler and Dhuradhan.

''Attention!'' Dhuradhan shouted and the still alive members of their crew snapped at attention. ''We are under attack! The ghost ship is NOT invulnerable! LOAD THE CANNONS, STAND BY THE MORTARS AND KILL THE BASTARDS!''

The crew roared, eager to take their revenge. Traveler went up to the wheel, before the captain can start barking his orders. Traveler steered to the left, spinning the wheel for several seconds. ''Sharp tak to the left!''

''SHARP TAK TO THE LEFT! PULL UP THE SAILS!'' Shouted the captain louder, helping out Traveler.

The crew pulled up the sails, so the ship can turn 120 degree in place. Traveler position the wheel back to it's normal state and told the captain to let down the sails again. ''LET GO OF HER SKIRT! LET THE WIND TAKE HER FROM BEHIND!'' Shouted out the captain and Traveler chuckled at the choice of his words.

The ship picked up the wind and the ghost ship started to come back in view. ''FIRE FIRST LINE!'' Shouted Dhuradhan and the mortars on the board sent the explosive projectiles into the air. They could see the shots, hitting the ghost ship on it's back. The crew, Traveler, the captain and Luna cheered, while Dhuradhan quickly went down to his cabin.

When he came back, he was carrying some strange cannon. Luna never seen a cannon, so small and it even had a small telescope on it. He placed a box inside it and pulled back a stick on it's side. After he heard a click, he looked at the ghost ship, deadly.

''I thought you have ran out of ammo!'' Shouted down to him Traveler, chuckling a bit.

''A few bullet can fuck them up a bit! Just what I need right now!'' He shouted back and ran to the front of the ship.

Luna followed him, curious about his small 'cannon'. Dhuradhan climbed to the very front of the beam, which was sticking forward on the front of the ship and above the water, then he crouched down. He raised his weapon and looked through the scope. ''Where are you... where are you bitch?'' He muttered to himself. ''Ugh, fuck it!'' He sucked in the air and held it inside. Then he pulled on the small stick on the under side of the tool.

Again, Luna yelped in surprise, as the small 'cannon' let loose of a loud 'boom'. ''What is that thing?! It's so small and it was louder than my sister in her sleep!'' She put that on her: 'Ask Traveler Later' list.
After he fired the second shot, Luna flew closer to the ghost ship. She could see the undead at the wheel, falling to the ground and a hole in their heads. ''So he takes out the captains, preventing them to get away... I don't know if it was his idea, or his dark self's idea...'' She noted, impressed by his plan and his weapons range. ''I must ask this from Traveler. I'm sure I saw something like that in his bags, just much smaller.''

The ship caught up with the ghost ship and they turned to the left, sightly. ''GET DOWN!'' Shouted Dhuradhan, spotting the cannons of the ghost ship, as they sent another round of projectiles at them. Traveler stood still and slowed down the incoming shot in his head. He saw a single ball, coming towards him and he was sure it will hit him.
He quickly summoned his pole-ax and pointed it at the quickly approaching shot. The blade on his weapon sliced half the ball and the two pieces flew behind him, nearly hitting his head.

After the crew stood back up from their cover, they pointed their cannons at the ghost ship. ''AIM AT THE MASTS, BLOW UP IT'S HEART!'' Shouted Dhuradhan and raised his hand into the air. ''READY!'' The ship came next to the ghost ship, cannons ready to fire. ''FIRE!''

The ghost ship's masts not just fell down, but got completely destroyed, by the lot of cannon balls. The mortars, which were pointed at the backside of the ship, created a huge hole on the left side of their ship. Luna cheered and took a good look at the ghost ship.

It had dark wooden planks, which looked like they were about to fall apart. Sea herbs covered the lower side of the ship, like it spent a long time under the water. Skeletons, arms, legs, skulls and spines adorned the upper side of the ship and the whole ship had this mysterious mood. The fog didn't help Luna to calm down. Even if she was brave, the ship's appearance was the perfect picture for a horror story. (Hint, hint?)

Traveler gave the wheel back to the captain and pulled off his bow. But before he could drawn it out, Dhuradhan swiped it out from his grip, along with a single arrow. ''What are you doing?!'' Traveler shouted after him, as he started to climb up the front mast. That was the first time, when Luna saw two more blades coming out from his sleeves. They were curved and had a really similar shape, like Traveler's claws. One blade came out from the right and one from the left side of one sleeve.

He launched himself higher and higher and he was just about to stand up on the top of the mast. That's when a bullet exploded into the mast, blowing down a huge chunk and making Dhuradhan fall down. He used his 'claw blades' to stop himself from falling down and soon stopped sliding too.

''What is wrong Avatar?!'' Came an arrogant shout from the ghost ship.

Luna looked over to the ghost ship and she nearly vomited. The creature was... really ugly. It's bleeding eyes were covered with a dirty and outworn bandage. His open mouth was curved upwards, revealing his few teeth in his disgusting mouth.
His hanging skin was grey and dirty, blood marks and tore down skin. He wore a simple clothing around his waist, thankfully hiding his third limb...
From his shoulders, legs and arms, were chains hanging out, coming out from his flesh. He had no hair, no beard, no signs of growing hair at all.

He was pointing a much smaller 'cannon' at the mast, where the shot nearly hit Dhuradhan. The Avatar started to climb up again. ''Lost your Balance?!'' The horrifying creature taunted.

Dhuradhan growled and crouched down on top of the mast. There, he pulled back the string of the bow. ''YOU SON OF A BITCH!'' And he let go of the arrow...

The arrow hit the creature on his left shoulder, close to it's heart. He cried out in pain and ran away. Dhuradhan jumped over the gap, between the two ship and landed on a skeleton, breaking its bones. Traveler did the same from the deck and landed next to Dhuradhan. ''I think it's MY bow.'' Traveler told him and Dhuradhan pushed the bow into his hands and ran after the creature.

More undead swarmed out from under the deck, from the the side of the ghost ship and from the destroyed masts. Traveler summoned his weapon and started the slaughter. He sent Hunter under the deck and his growling could be heard, along with the death screams of the undead crew.

While Luna enjoyed watching Traveler, as he cut, sliced, stabbed and kicked the enemy, she couldn't help, but notice a shocking sight. Dhuradhan, on the other side of the boat, was leaving a bloody mess behind him. But that wasn't the point. Luna expected him to be a murderous, killing machine. But the way he did it...
''Are those... claws?!''

Both Dhuradhan's arms morphed into claws. It's black skin and scales were just shouting about the Dark energy he possessed. The scales were for protection on the upper and outer side of his limb, while blue veins could be seen on the under and inner side of his arms. His palm was grey and its harsh skin was soon covered in blood.
His body posture was like a beast's. His knees were higher than his rear end and he was leaning forward, to the point, where a normal spine would not be able to reach. Luna saw him crouching lower than Traveler and she assumed that he was trained for stealth. But now he broke his own record! ''If he would have a tail, then he would be considered as a dragon. No humanoid can move like this. His spine and bones... his skeletal structure must be odd.'' She noted.
And the most shocking part was how big his claws were. ''They're twice as large as Traveler's claws. And compared to his own hands, those must be three times larger. With those, he can crush my skull... even Tia's! Hmm... I wonder if he can grab things with that...'' Luna decided to check those deadly claws out, closer.

Luna flew lower and she could hear Dhuradhan's grunting, growling, shouting and cursing. He was snarling again, which gave Luna the final peace of the picture. ''Absolutely not a human. I don't even know if he's a humanoid. Traveler described the humanoids and his posture sticks out from that description... oh my, he can grab with them! Traveler, tell me he didn't hurt the ponies when he helped you!'' Luna thought to herself, as Dhuradhan lifted up an undead with one claw around its waist and brought it down on the wooden floor.

The floor broke under him and he found himself under the deck. He heard a 'clicking' sound and to Luna's shock, the scales on his left arm grew bigger. It looked like a shield, made from black, sharp scales and he turned it towards a barrel. The barrel exploded, as the ugly creature shot it with that little 'canon'.

Dhuradhan wasted no time. As his overgrown scales were shrinking back to their original size, he immediately started chasing the creature. Luna wasn't even surprised, when she saw Dhuradhan, running on all fours. ''Yes... but of course...''

Luna flew after them and she could hear the chains, dangling in the air, as the creature was running away from The Balance. He had no chance against the now enraged Avatar, since he was much faster than him. Even if he made barrels, crates or shelves, fall into Dhuradhan's way, he would dodge them, jump over them like a tiger or simply shatter them to pieces.

Suddenly, Traveler went across the corridor, an undead in his grip. He made two human sized holes in the two walls, using the undead to break through them. Luna found that amusing and she started laughing.

The sudden appearance of Traveler made the creature to take a sharp left. Dhuradhan saw that and grabbed the corner of the walls. His claws dug into the wood and that helped him to take a sharp left too, as fast as he was running before.

The creature was just at the end of the corridor and was about to turn left again, where the stairs leading up to the deck was, when Dhuradhan had enough. That was the first time, when Luna saw him using his magic, to fire a dark blue flame ball. It reminded her about Traveler's powers. He used the same kind of range attack too, a burning ball of energy.

But unlike Traveler, Dhuradhan's was smaller and faster. As it hit the creature, he crashed through the wall. Behind the wall, a small boat was hanging on the ropes, ready to leave the ship. The creature slammed against this boat and found himself inside it, when Dhuradhan jumped up and kicked him inside. The ropes couldn't take it anymore and left the boat, falling into the water. The force of Dhuradhan's kick, sent the boat a few meters away from the ship and the boat kept gaining distance.

Traveler made a hole in the floor, as he jumped up to the top of the deck. He heard the sound of splashing water and he feared the worst. Since he killed all of the undead, he focused on Dhuradhan's and the creature's whereabout. Luna was impressed to see him, defeating that many enemy. ''Now I know why he wanted me to leave, back at the castle. He was able to defeat those Followers without me... at least the fun has been doubled...'' She chuckled and landed next to Traveler.

''Oh... fuck...'' Traveler muttered and Luna followed his gaze.

Both of them looked at the single boat on the water. The creature and Dhuradhan on the same boat.

And The Avatar looked angry...

''Oh... buck...'' Said out loud Luna and followed Traveler, who found another boat and quickly started to make his way to the angry Avatar...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

The following part will be not just gruesome, but absolutely disgusting. If you choose to skip this part, then don't worry! You will not miss anything. (Just the feeling of revenge and brutality and killing and blood and satisfaction and... okay, I should stop now...) Go to the next RED text, if you want to skip this!

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Did you say something?!''

Luna and Traveler just arrived in time, to hear Dhuradhan shouting at the creature. He was beating him furiously on the head, stomach and neck. The dark red blood just flew everywhere, painting the inside of the boat to crimson.

''DID YOU FUCKING SAY SOMETHING?!'' And he punched him in the face, sending him to the bottom of the boat.

''Gatekeeper! You broke the Laws of the Balance. You took advantage on your ability and sent innocent souls to Hell, or sinners to The Light. Your punishment is lethal!'' Spoke up Traveler, watching Dhuradhan beating the life out of The Gatekeeper.

Both Luna and Traveler knew, that Dhuradhan will not give him a quick death. Though they already knew that three days earlier, the look on his face and the noises he made just convinced them even more.

''HOW DARE YOU MIND FUCK ME AND MAKE ME BREAK MY OWN FREAKING RULES?!'' Dhuradhan shouted and grabbed the chain on The Gatekeeper's left shoulder. Using his left hand to push him back, Dhuradhan pulled the chain with his right hand. The Gatekeeper screamed, as he felt the flesh inside his shoulder tearing apart.

As the chain get pulled out of him, a big hole winked back at Luna and she cringed. Not just because of the look of it, but because of the terrible scream of agony, mixed with the aggressive grunt of Dhuradhan's.

And for the second time, Luna nearly vomited. She did NOT expected Dhuradhan, to lick down the blood from the chain and bite down the meat from it. The blood of that dirty creature and he licked it down like it's tasty and chewed on his meat! Even if he still kept on snarling at The Gatekeeper, he looked satisfied. And he licked around his mouth and swallowed every drop of blood and flesh.

Traveler looked taken aback. ''You... are not just a half vampire... you're a cannibal!'' He stated.

''And thanks to you, for getting me back my cross! I can control it now!'' Dhuradhan shouted back, coiling up the chain around his right fist.

He grabbed The Gatekeeper by his left shoulder and bashed his skull with his now 'chained fist'. Luna herself, felt a slight throbbing in her forehead, as she heard the skull breaking under the third strike of the Dhuradhan's fist. He again, released him from his grip, to make him slam into the boat from the hit.

Dhuradhan let lose on the chain and grabbed it's end. He stroke The Gatekeepers neck, tearing down the skin from there and revealing the flesh. Then he let go of the chain, leaving it to fall into the water.

He morphed his arms back into their claw form and grabbed The Gatekeeper's right leg. His right claw on his shin and the left above his knee.

Luna gasp and looked away. ''Ewwhh!''

Dhuradhan, with a quick and easy motion, tore down the leg. The blood coming out from the hole, below the knee, was too much for Luna. An inch high pool of blood was already present on the bottom of the boat. The Gatekeeper trembled on the edge of the boat, his lungs still able to hold his screams.

For a moment, Dhuradhan turned his left arm back to its original form and pointed it at The Gatekeeper. Luna jumped, when she heard a loud bang and turned around. From under Dhuradhan's sleeve, a slightly visible smoke was coming out and Luna noticed his screaming target, holding his right arm.
''He... shot him?''

Luna watched, as Dhuardhan pulled lower his sleeve, to reveal some kind of bracelet. The under side of it was grey and made from some kind of metal material. The upper side looked like Traveler's wrist plates, but grey and it wasn't covered in leather. On the end of each side, she could see the curved edge of his 'claw' blades, sticking out a bit. She also noticed other holes on the end of the bracelet. ''This machine on his wrist contains two kind of blade and-''

Her thoughts were interrupted, as she saw Dhuradhan stabbing another blade into The Gatekeeper's hand, which he used to hold his shot arm. The blade came out from under his sleeve too and it was smaller than his other blades.
''Correction... three kind of blades. And if I'm right, those other holes are for his small cannons. One on both sides, above the claw blades.
The surface on the machine is strong. He can easily block a blade with that... Hmm... his equipment is for silent and hidden attacks, but he still created a huge destruction.
Traveler on the other hoof... or... other hand? Never mind, he is trained to be dangerous and he can creature huge destruction. Even if he is good in stealth, he's not as effective. Hmm... I should give him some advice hehhee...''

Meanwhile, Dhuradhan tore down the bandage from The Gatekeeper's head, revealing his closed eyes. He was about to open them and make the three suffer, when Dhuradhan growled and used his claws to tear one of his eyes out. ''You do not deserve to wield this!'' He shouted, as he teared the eye out from its place, creating a black hole, where the blood just exploded out.

Luna decided to just watch Dhuradhan and Traveler, not looking at the bloody mess, who was screaming in agony. This didn't stop Luna from cringing, as she could hear the huge amount of pain in the screams.

Terror took over The Gatekeeper's mind and wanted to open the other eye. Only for Dhuradhan, to tear that one out too. More screams and more blood, the sheer terror was unbearable for The Gatekeeper. He soon started to beg...

''P-please! You... you get nothing from killing meEEEAAAHHH!''

Dhuradhan used his right claw, to stab him in the stomach. ''Let's see what your diet is.'' He said, right into his face, gritting his teeth. As he moved his claw around, inside The Gatekeeper, he damaged the flesh, the organs and kept on looking into his 'eyes' , where a bloody hole winked back at him.

The dying Gatekeeper could only stay still, mouth agape. From his mouth, blood launched itself out, as Dhuradhan squeezed his inner body parts, sending fresh blood into the throat and mouth. The choking sounds just made Luna's stomach to do backflips, but Traveler saved her...

''It's enough!'' Spoke up Traveler, frowning at Dhuradhan.

Dhuradhan pulled out his claw from inside The Gatekeeper. A new wave of red liquid following his arm. Dark energy flowed through his right arm, like shadows and it morphed again. ''A... blade?!'' Luna blurted out inside her head.

And sure enough, a blade was at his right arm's place. From Dhuradhan's shoulder blade, a big, curved blade. If Luna had to describe how it looked like, she would say... ''A scythe...'' Where his normal body and the scythe's blade met, there were shadows connecting the two part.

The Gatekeeper heard the sound of blade, brushing against the wood. His face showed great fear and started shouting. ''NO! PLEASE NO! NOT THE SCYTHEAAAAHHHH!''

And Dhuradhan stabbed the whole blade into his mouth, silencing him. Then he placed his left leg, on the now, dead Gatekeeper's chest and kicked down his body from the blade. As he pulled back the blade, he raised it to his mouth and licked all the way up to the tip. He didn't stop there and continue licking the blood.

That's where Luna noticed something new. ''His wounds!'' Dhuradhan's wounds started to heal up, as he swallowed the blood. She also sensed his dark powers, increasing by every single drop of red liquid. ''Traveler was right, he is not just a vampire...'' Though the blood only healed his small wounds and recharged him with energy, the raw meat was like a healing spell for him. ''I hope Traveler is not like that...'' Luna shook her head, seeing the brutality and violence around her.

Dhuradhan looked down at the corpse and extended his right limb, which his blade replaced the arm. The blade started to disappear, as black smoke started to cover his whole right arm. Then this cloud of smoke, moved lower on his arm and further. It soon revealed a scythe, just as long as tall he was...
''What are you?!'' Luna shouted in her mind and looked at Traveler.

Traveler just blankly stared at Dhuradhan, somewhat sad by his behavior. Luna sighed and continued to watch Dhuradhan.
The scythe's handle was a spine. Strong and flexible. On the base of the blade, a skull connected the spine and blade. This allowed the blade to turn into a spear or a scythe.
And he just did that, tugged one on the weapon and the blade moved up. Swinging his weapon in a circular motion and spinning it in his hand, he brought down the spear, stabbing the body on the chest.

Luna was about to question why did he do that, since it was dead already, but she soon got her answer. Dhuradhan pressed down the handle, backwards and this made the spear to start spinning. And Luna saw it... ''Is that his... soul?''

It looked like a ghost. Slightly visible, blank expression and it got sucked into the now, formed back scythe. Then Dhuradhan extended his arm and the scythe disappeared in a black smoke. The smoke went through his clothes and returned into his right shoulder, exactly where it came out.

Luna thought this was the end, but she was wrong. Dhuradhan raised his left hand and his Golden Cross appeared. He pointed it at the dead body and the light that was shining down on the corpse, started to suck the body in. Like something was burning away and fly into something.

When the body was no more, the cross locked away the power from the body and only the blood remained, he pulled out the two eyeballs. He repeated the process and all of The Gatekeeper's body parts disappeared.

Luna watched in interest, as he placed the brightly glowing cross against his chest. It started shining brighter and Dhuradhan released the cross. The cross started to get deeper inside his chest and he started grunting. His breathing became harsh and quick and he soon started screaming.

Luna expected Traveler to help him, but he just watched him, as Dhuradhan fell onto his knees and screamed his lungs out. When the cross fully disappeared in his chest, his eyes started to shine in the same, light blue color. He continued screaming in agony and grabbed his head, like it was about to explode.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

I think it's safe from here. You can continue reading!

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Then everything stopped...

His breathing was still harsh and he continued grunting and growling, while looking at the ground. Luna saw blood drops, falling down from his face. And as he slowly stood up, Luna gasped in shock and fright.

''Don't look at me!'' Dhuradhan said, eyes bleeding and Traveler turned away from him quickly.

Luna was too slow and too curious to look away from him.

And she saw his eyes...

Luna screamed, when she looked into those horrifying eyes. She never saw these kind of eyes. Like they are no eyes, but they still are. It was everything wrong, that she ever saw... just like her past...
She saw Nightmare Moon's eye in them. Looking terrifyingly at her and absolutely deadly. An it was like what they used to say: ''Looking into your soul.''
Thankfully, he was just a memory and he could only scare Luna for a moment...

Dhuradhan quickly shut close his eyes end held his head, while blood started to come out from his eyes. ''Ugh... *pant pant* ... bring me to the Bridge of Memories... *cough*... this piece of shit is down... *pant, cough* I need answers... quickly...''

And he passed out, falling into the pool of blood...

And the memory started to change scene again...

Author's Note

Here's part two as I promised. I hope I found all the typos and all. It was a long chapter and MY eyes are burning actually.
Next chapter will be up tomorrow, after school. I get home, rest and time to fix the chapter! And that would be it for this Revealing Memories series.

Questions for you:
Do you skip the gory part?
Luna or Celestia?
Who wants Molestia in his/her own bed? (I want by the way...)

Because if you skip it, then I don't have to make the conversations longer in the following chapters, to explain the missing part!
So please, post it in the comments: YES, or NO!
The other two question is to make you all feel awkward...
And I rarely get one or two comments and there are MUCH more of you, who follows this story. At least say something like: ''This chapter is JUST okay, you shall be spared!'' Just let me know, if you actually follow the story, aside from seeing that how many of you checked out the new chapters...
(And I'm being a 'nyafogó ribanc' again...)

Have a good night!

Revealing Memories Pt. 3: What a Spirit is afraid of...

Traveler and Dhuradhan was on a strange boat. It looked simple, but Luna found it somewhat... odd. Like it shouldn't be there, shouldn't be able to keep two passenger and it shouldn't spread out the mist around them.

Traveler was on the front of the boat, holding a lantern, which had a snow white flame inside. Luna never saw anything like that. ''A lantern with a white flame inside? Maybe that's why the boat feels strange...'' The light it spread around the area, acted like a shield, as the mist quickly moved out of the boat's way.

As she looked around, she saw only mist. The sun above them couldn't break the white smoke and the lantern was the only light source. Nothing could be heard in that place. Like the mist was acting as a wall, locking away everything from the outside world.

Dhuradhan kept on clinging his head and chest. Luna could tell, he was in pain and she would never want to know how much it could hurt. She had no idea how it hurt him, but the rapid breathing and grunting just made HER feel bad. And it didn't help, that his eyes kept bleeding slowly. Though he could see something, it wasn't a clear vision. He tried to wash his face, but Traveler quickly pulled him back from the water. He said: ''You don't want to know and try that out...'' So Luna decided, it would be the best if she stays away from the water surface.

The other thing she noticed, was the changing water. If she looked above the water, it looked dirty and she could even say black. But when she looked right below her, she could clearly see her reflection. And since she was just in a memory, the water had no effect on her.

This lead to another revelation...

''Your reflection is... strange...'' Commented Traveler, as he saw Dhuradhan's reflection on the water surface.

''Who you're seeing now... is my past self...'' He answered and turned away from his reflection.

His reflection looked nearly the same. Just longer hair, same hair style and his eyes were normal. Even in the water, she could see his blue eyes. They reminded her of the night sky, but they were still light blue.
His whole expression was something else. Instead of seeing an angry human, she saw an innocent teenager. At least she thought he was a teenager, since he looked younger. And Traveler talked about the human's and humanoid's changing, as time goes on...
Luna examined the reflection closer and saw sadness behind his eyes. ''I knew! There is no creature, who becomes a monster, just to have fun! ... This... reminds me of... myself...''

Luna quickly shook her head, trying to not think about her bad past. One person already felt bad and he was next to her. Even if he was filled with hatred and became a monster... she felt sympathy. And as she remembered, she became a monster too. And now... she was one of Equestria's most important pony. An Alicorn, a Princess, who raises and lowers the moon. She's an artist at night, making beautiful constellations. She was The Guardian of the Night. She helps ponies to sleep in peace, making sure that everypony wakes up happily.

She finally realized: The ponies are happy, because of a sweet dream and a peaceful night! If they are well rested, they can happily continue living their lives! It's not just Celestia, who makes every day nice! HER work has a big role, in making the ponies happy!
And if everypony is happy... she's happy...

''Focus!'' Spoke up Dhuradhan.

Luna looked at Traveler, who was staring into the water. His mouth was open and his eyes wide. Luna flew next to him and looked at his reflection.

It wasn't his reflection, it was another memory! The woman, Floya' , was looking at him. Her disappointed expression was also filled with sadness. Luna gasped, as she recognized this kind of expression. ''Tia... I'm sorry...'' She forced back her tears, as she remembered that moment... when everything gone wrong.

Before her sister banished her to the moon, her transformation into Nightmare Moon took a few months. As her attitude changed, her sister always argued with her. And every argument ended the same way... Celestia looking at her, like the woman in Traveler's memory.

You disgust me!

The woman said and Traveler's posture shifted. Luna could tell, he felt bad for killing her.

You are a liar and a traitor. You betrayed me and used me. My thrust and everything that is me. And you just move on in life, like you have no heart. Feel lucky, I lost my own life. And the worst part is... you were my friend.

A single tear slid down on Traveler's face. The woman's words hit him pretty hard and even Luna cringed, as she heard these words.

And she said...

You empty, cold hearted and emotionless monster!

The woman started to disappeared and Traveler dropped the lantern. ''Horseman!'' Called Dhuradhan, but Traveler ignored him.

''Floya'! FLOYA'! Floya' I'm sorry! I'm so sorry! How could I kill you?! Why did I agreed with the Elders?! I'm a terrible person!'' He was clearly crying, letting the streaks of tears, flowing down on his cheeks. Then the woman disappeared. ''Floya' please! Don't leave me! I'm sorry!''

''Traveler!'' Dhuradhan started to stand up.

''FLOYAAAA'!''

Traveler dived into the water, disappearing under the surface. ''Holy fucking SHIT!'' Dhuradhan quickly summoned his scythe. He pushed it inside the water, trying to pull back up Traveler. When he pulled back his weapon, Traveler was on the under side of the blade, hanging. ''For fuck sake...'' Growled Dhuradhan and reached for Traveler.

As he was about to grab Traveler, a hand came out from the water. It grabbed his arm and a little girl popped her head out from the water. ''Why would you hurt me?'' She asked him, her voice sent shivers down Luna's spine.

The little girl had black, long hair. She wore a white cape around herself, no decoration on it. Her eyes were empty, white colored and it terrified both Luna and Dhuradhan.

''I never hurt you. Why did you hurt me?'' She asked again, while Dhuradhan tried to pull back his arm. ''Everyone hurts me, because I'm alone.'' She whined and the water started to swallow in Dhuradhan's hand. ''But you will be there for me. I have a lot of friends down there and you will not be alone too. We can play together...''

''GET AWAY FROM ME!'' Dhuradhan yelled and hit the girl on her head. He broke free from her grip and pulled back Traveler inside the boat. But the little girl pulled herself up onto the boat and pounced at Dhuradhan.

''Why do you have to leave me alone?! Why do you hurt me?!''

Dhuradhan was busy, moving his scythe back inside his shoulder. The weapon disappeared, as the girl bit down on his neck. ''AAAAAAHHHHHHH!'' He cried out and tried to shake off the girl. As he stumbled through Traveler's motionless body, he was able to reach for the lantern. He used it to hit the girl down from him.

The girl rolled off from him and he quickly positioned himself above her. He raised the lantern and started bashing her skull, repeatedly. Luna looked away from the violence. Even if she was evil and attacked him, she was just a little girl.

''DIE! DIE! DIE!'' Dhuradhan shouted and he started to slow down. His beating soon stopped and left him out of breath. He hit the dead body one last time, making sure if it's alive. After that, he threw it into the water. It was strange, the water didn't turn red from her blood.

Dhuradhan calmed himself down and turned back to Traveler. He just started to woke up and Dhuradhan approached him. Traveler blinked and his eyes widened. He quickly crawled to the side of the boat and looked deep into it.

''Floya'?!''

He was about to get back into the water, when Dhuradhan grabbed him by the collar and pushed him back. ''LET ME GO!'' Traveler yelled and tried to break free. Dhuradhan held him down with his hands and he even morphed them into his claws.
''LET ME GO OR I KILL YOU!''

As the words escaped from his mouth, Dhuradhan released him and helped him stand up. ''Oh really?! I can let you go back to your death, I don't fucking care! I even make you a staircase to walk into the water! I don't need you anymore anyways!''

He suddenly grabbed Traveler's wrist and attached a claw onto it. He moved the claws up to his own throat and let go of Traveler's hand. ''Or you can kill me right here, right now! Ending my miserable life and freeing me from this world's pain! Come on, do it!''

The two was looking at each other. Dhuradhan looked serious about his words and Traveler was in deep thoughts, gritting his teeth and considering his offer. Luna held back her breath, feeling the tension in the air.

Traveler had a hard time responding and his eyes started to dart away from Dhuradhan's. ''Look at me!'' Dhuradhan told him, but he ignored his order, still thinking. ''Look me in the fucking eye!'' Still nothing. ''I SAID LOOK AT ME WHEN YOU KILL ME!''

It was a mistake...

As Traveler was about to do something, Dhuradhan used his new ability. When Traveler made eye contact, he immediately dropped to the floor, screaming. Dhuradhan soon followed him, his eyes bleeding again.

Luna expected this to happen, so she was looking at Traveler instead. The two continued screaming on the boat, as it was bringing them to somewhere...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Traveler was sitting on the front of the boat, looking forward. Dhuradhan was facing the other way, still grunting and growling from his bleeding eyes.

Luna watched the two, as their tears fell down. Though Dhuradhan's was blood and he actually felt angry. There was that one time, when he was looking into the water again. But Luna saw a different reflection that time...

At first, his innocent past self turned into another of his past self. That one had short hair and strong, green eyes. The reflection wore an evil grin, which spoiled his whole personality to Luna. Angry, crazy, wild and merciless. And his teeth... they were sharper than his present self's and Luna could see the Dark energy flowing through him and burning chaos in his eyes.

Dhuradhan frowned at the reflection and growled in annoyance. That's when the reflection disappeared and three other human appeared. On the right, a young adult stood. He had short, black hair and brown eyes. He wore an earring in his left earlobe, which made Luna confused. ''What kind of fashion is that?'' And what made Luna even more confused, was the bite mark on the left side of his neck. He looked kinda sick and Luna looked at Dhuradhan suspiciously.
In the middle, a short woman. She had short, blonde hair, with small brown lines in it. She had greenish blue eyes, which lead Luna to a new revelation. ''His... mother...''
And on the right, a tall, well built man. Luna assumed he was old, since he had grey and a kinda old fashioned styled hair. But it was fitting for his face, along with his brown eyes. Another revelation for Luna... ''The man on the left is his son... and his features, the beard... could he be his...'' Luna trailed off and looked back at Dhuradhan.

His features had some similarity and the small beard on their jaws had the same style. ''His father... his whole family... what did he do to them?'' Luna asked herself, when she saw their sad expression.

You did this to me... Dhuradhan stopped grunting, when his brother spoke up.

You left us alone... His parents spoke up next, making him lean towards the reflections.

The reflections changed again and showed a pretty girl. She had a beautiful, plain and white skin. Straight, blonde hair reached the middle section of her back and blue eyes sparkled in the water. She looked innocent, but Dhuradhan growled at her.

You lied to me. She started.

''And you played with me.'' Dhuradhan retorted, making Traveler to turn his wet face around. Not only his tears made his face wet, but his short visit under the water.

You used me.

''You used me first, I took my revenge. That's how the world works.'' Dhuradhan retorted again, his voice becoming deeper.

I still forgive you and I'm sorry-

''SHUT UP!''

Dhuradhan shouted and sent a beam of Dark energy at the water, making his reflections disappear. He stormed to the front of the boat, looking forward. ''Where the fuck is that bridge?! I'm sick of this shit!''

''S-soon... we will be there...'' Shivered Traveler from his wet clothes.

And like faith heard them, a shore came to view. The sand was grey and lifeless, but had a mysterious feeling. It wasn't the kind of sand that Luna used to see. It wasn't golden and radiant in the sun light.

''Fucking finally...'' Murmured Dhuradhan and placed one foot on the front of the boat. As he glanced down, he raised his middle finger at the reflection in the water. Luna didn't understand the gesture and looked at the reflection.

Luna backed away from the reflection. It showed a dark monster. It had red, glowing eyes, not like Traveler's, mind you. They were FULLY red, not just the pupils. Chains were holding down the creature's scaly body, while it was trying to break free. She couldn't see its face, as complete darkness covered his features. But somehow, she felt that the monster was laughing evilly at Dhuradhan.

The reflection gone, as the boat hit the shore. Traveler hopped out of the boat, walking next to Dhuradhan. ''What now?'' Traveler asked.

''You're journey ends here. I don't need your help anymore.'' Dhuradhan answered, looking at the bridge in front of him.

It was made from purple wood, no decoration and only two pillar at the two sides. On both pillars, a single torch illuminated the entrance with white, burning flames. It was unequivocally simple, but it was so much at the same time. ''This mysterious feeling again. Traveler, why do you even follow him to places like this? This whole thing here is uninviting!''

''You will probably not getting back from there. I go with you.'' Traveler broke the silence.

''I don't need your service anymore. You're free to go...'' Dhuradhan took one step forward and Traveler did the same.

''Tell me you have enough Light inside you. Have you tried healing your wounds?''

''I tried... no use. And yes, I still have enough Light inside me... now go!'' He was about to go, when Traveler placed a hand on his shoulder.

''Then you have to let me go with you!'' Traveler tried to convince him.

Dhuradhan slowly turned around and sighed. ''Not gonna happen...''

Luna gasped, as Dhuradhan hit Traveler on the neck, using the edges of his left palm. As Traveler leaned to the other side from the force of the hit, Dhuradhan punched him in the middle of his torso, rolling the bones in his right hand, against Traveler's muscles. As Traveler leaned forward from the blow, Dhuradhan raised his left fist and brought it down on Traveler's head, like a hammer.

Traveler soon found himself on the ground, twitching and holding his neck and torso. Dhuradhan crouched down next to him and started speaking. ''Listen up! I... go this way...'' He pointed behind him, towards the bridge. ''And you... go back with the boat!'' Traveler tried to make a sound, but his vocal cords just couldn't work from the strike to his neck. ''Yes, you heard me. Leave me the fuck alone! Do not care about me, just leave! I would have left you to die back there, but I needed your help.''

He stood up and started walking towards the bridge, only to stop a few meters away from Traveler. ''And don't worry about my life! I'll be back one day, I'm sure about that. Besides, I have to go alone. I need answers and since I can't trust anyone, I have to find the answers in my past... and stop the Leader of the Light. He is definitely not a good leader and have to be replaced...''

He turned around, while pulling out a cross from his pockets and a small cannon too. It was silvery and buffed. ''Here's your reward...'' He threw the cross next to Traveler's head, making it to be sticked out from the sand. The weapon landed in front of him, pointing at the cross and Traveler looked surprised at him. ''Before you ask, this is not mine and an Angel will not miss her little cross... as for the weapon, you'll find it useful...''
''Wha... what does he mean by... 'her'?!'' Luna couldn't think of what he must have done to that Angel...

''Farewell!''

And there went Dhuardhan, crossing the Bridge of Memories...

''... where no sinner goes in and comes back...'' Finished the quote Traveler.

He hardly stood up and picked up the cross, feeling a small presence inside it. Then he quickly put away the weapon too and made his way back to the boat. He sighed and pushed the boat back into the water. He jumped inside and started his way back to the living world...

After a few minutes of regaining his voice, he heard a shout from behind him. It was Dhuradhan's but he ignored it.

Monster...

He looked around and into the water, expecting to see Floya' , but he didn't find her...

Monster...

''I'm not.'' He stated.

Monster...

''No!''

Monster...

''Stop!''

Monster...

Traveler slid down to the bottom of the boat, moving into a fetal position and holding his head.

Monster...

Floya's voice continued and Traveler soon felt his tears falling again. He sniffed and whimpered, as memories came floating back from his past and the voice just continued repeating itself. And he soon started whispering back...

''I'm not a monster...''

Monster...

''I'm not... a monster...''

Monster...

''I'm... not... a monster...''

Monster...

''Monster...''

Monster...

''Monster...''

Monster...

''Monster...''

''... monster...''

''... a monster...''

''...I... am... a monster...''

''... I'm... a monster...''

''I'm a... monster''

And all the way back, Traveler soon realized the truth. Luna was sad to see him in a state like that, taking his past to his own heart like that.

Then...

... the memory came to an end...

Author's Note

And the final part of this mini series. And now...

LISTEN UP EVERYPONY!
Since I used a LOT of things from the world I have in mind, where The Traveling Horseman and Dhuradhan In Equestria takes place, I want to ask you something!
Do you want me, to write a big lecture about this world? Explaining its history, its laws and everything about it? Including the Spirits, Elders, Gods, creatures and the whole Avatar thing? Because you pretty much found yourself in the middle of an unknown world. I keep mentioning the Light, Elders, Angels, Hell, Dark Power and every other thing from this world.
This would be an opportunity for you, to make a story! Creating your own Spirit in Equestria story or something like that. Of course, in another dimension, because I don't want to collab with others. Takes a LOT of time and I want this story to be on its own. Or else, I have to make SERIOUS changes!
So if you want, I can write a blog post, putting a link into the next authors note and stuff, then you got a head start with a new story. 'Where to place your character?' This is one of the most important questions in a story. I'm giving you the basics and instead of explaining this world in your first chapter, you can send your readers to that blog post, making your work easier.
Tell me in the comments, if you want that. I would gladly make a group for this world, so i can see your creations, fine writers! But I don't want to dive into that so early... not like I thought about and dreamed about it or anything... nope... (Okay, I totally had a good dream about that recently, as I read a story, which takes place in my created world. No ego...)
The explanation also contains the history of Dhuradhan. (In short of course, because I still have to write the Dhuradhan In Equestria : Book Two - *insert fancy name here, saying something about water* and that's where I will explain Dhuradhan's past for the readers and to the ponies. And I just spoiled that, but you probably expected that to happen...) It would contains some description about the places like in this chapter, the 'Bridge of Memories' and some other places too like: Hell, The Light and i could write a lot about those.
The thing is, this world I have in mind is really big and everything has its own legend, history and background story.
So once again: Do you want me to write that big ass explanation? Or you give no shit about my worthless attempts, to impress you?

ABOUT THIS CHAPTER:
Sorry to annoy you all again with Dhuradhan, but that's how the history goes. They had this adventure and PUFF nothing. I don't even think I will use Dhuradhan or Dhanthas anymore.
SPOILER: Except in a few chapters later, where Luna asks him those questions, that she gathered from her journey in Traveler's memory!
And I don't really know, if I should have placed a WARNING in this chapter. I mean, you probably got angry, when you saw Dhuradhan HITTING a 6-9 years old little girl. And now you fully hate my character... Even if she was evil in that place... Oh well, it's too late now and not many of you answered me about my question in the last chapter. So don't come up to me, complaining about this!
'Where is the comedy?' Yeah, that's the other thing. You see, this story is BOTH comedy and a big adventure. And as you all noticed, the ponies are the comedy in this and when Traveler meets with non-Equestrians, the story changes into an epic fight. So i try to keep my 'Balance' between comedy and battle, by jumping to one and then back to the other side. (Yes, I just made a joke about Dark and The Light and The Balance. It's kinda funny, as how many jokes I can make about Dhuradhan and he is my most precious character! I joke on my own work!)
Back to the comedy, next chapter will be random. I can't promise anything, I spent my whole week writing this three chapter and i kinda tired...
But next chapter will be random and in the later chapters, you all gonna flip your tables. Big plans... big plans...

Have a good night!
~ Adam Klapper

PS.: SPOILER! Pyromancer will be so swag in next chapter. >:-D

Randomian, not comedian!

Two Pinkie Pie clone were having fun in the forest...

''Fun!''

Traveler and Luna were reliving the past...

''I'm a monster...''

''Calm down Traveler!''

Another Pinkie Pie sucked out, every energy from the random Stallion...

''That was FUN!''

Twilight in her library was doing a research, to find a solution for the Pinkie Pie problem...

''This makes no sense!''

Spike looked confused, when he looked inside a random house and spotted Pinkie and a random Stallion in one bed...

''Weird...'' He commented and pulled up his 'Traveler outfit' 's hood. His eyes widened in realization. ''Oh... man...''

Princess Celestia was in her bed and that's just bucking it... nothing interesting happening in her room... nope...

''Guard, do the 85th Pegasus Move! This princess is ready for this evening...''

''With pleasure, your Highness.''

''Literally...''

Applejack couldn't sleep, because of her dreams about Sprint...

''He must be a fine stallion...''

''Granny! What 'n tartarus ar' ya' doin' 'ere?''

''Hehhehee... Ah remember when ah was at yo' age sugarcube. An' the stallion of mah dreams woke me up every dang nigh'.

''Wh... what ar' you talkin' 'bout Granny?''

''Ahhahha! Yo' made some pretty loud noises in 'ere.''

''Ah didn'!''

''Calm do'n Applejack! It's part of growin' up, to a pretty mare. Big Mac went through th' same a few years ago an' now he's th' colt of tha town.

''Eeyap...'' Called Big Macintosh from the other room, trying to cover his ears from his sister's whimpers.

''Sis, ar' ya' hurt?'' Appeared in the doorway, a sleepy Applebloom.

''AH, horseapples!''

Rainbow was trying her best, to collect all the missing (pages) Pinkie Pies in the forest...

''Pony back ride!'' The Pinkie Pies cheered and Dash facehoofed.

''Okay, just once...''

All the Pinkie Pies jumped on top of her and Rainbow Dash tried to stay afloat...

Fluttershy was still having a tea time, along with her animal friends... even if it was the middle of the night...

''Oh, it's time for the dessert!'' She said and all the night animals cheered in their animal voice...

Rarity looked like a mess. The Pinkie Pie incident outside her house was keeping her awake.

''If I don't get my beauty sleep, I will simply CAN'T finish the dresses!'' And she dramatically fell onto her bed, doing dramatical things, like crying dramatically and dramatically holding a hoof to her forehead, while dramatically talking about the worst possible thing...

The town was full of colorful and talking ponies... oh wait, that isn't an unusual thing!

So Equestria was screwed and the only pony who could save the day was-

''PYROMANCER! WEEEEEEE~''

... yes, him. Did he just interrupted me? He can't have the ability to break the forth wall! I have special plans to do that!

''Wow, I have a feeling I bucked up someone's plans...''

MY PLANS!
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Rainbow Dash heard the shout and looked up under the pile of Pinkie Pies. ''HEY! A LITTLE HELP OVER HERE!'' She shouted.

Pyromancer looked down and spotted the pile of Pinkie Pies and the helpless Rainbow Dash. He wasted no time, dived towards her, his mane and tail burning. The streak behind him illuminated the night sky and this draw too much attention.

''Go minions! Get the random pegasus, who randomly appeared in the story, because the author thinks it's a good idea! Eliminate him and I will be the only random character in this story! FORWAAAARD!''

And all the Pinkie Pies charged towards the burning streak in the sky...

Pyromancer slammed into the Pinkie Pies, knocking them down from Rainbow Dash. The pink bodies flew at every direction and all of them had their eyes go 'derp'...

Pyromancer made a pose, trying to look impressive. He stood in front of Rainbow Dash and held out a hoof for her. ''Having a gang bang in the forest? Kinky...''

Rainbow shoved away his hoof and jumped up. ''What the hay are you talking about, they assaulted me! Okay it looked like that but Pinkie is my friend not my mate!'' Pyromancer started looking over himself, like he was trying to find something. ''What are you doing?''

Pyromancer shrugged. ''I was looking for a buck to give, but I couldn't find any...''

Rainbow snapped and tackled him to the ground. ''What did you say to me?!'' She yelled at him.

''I like where it's going...'' He said, simply.

Rainbow stopped and realized what kind of position they were in. She was sitting on his lap, hooves on his neck and wings extended. Pyromancer's wings soon followed her wings movement, extending on the ground.

She jumped off and turned away from him. ''You hold your tongue about this!''

'''Kay. I'm actually interested in the Night Angel, so...'' He trailed off, shrugging.

''Who?''

''The Night Angel! Me and that Spirit went high and she appeared. Damn, she has a nice flaAAAAANK!'' He was interrupted again, when Dash tackled him to the ground... for the second time...

''That's Princess Luna! Where is she?! Where is Traveler?!'' She half shouted at him, in an urgent voice.

Pyromancer grunted, as he landed on the ground. ''Yeez gurl! If you want to rape me, then make your first move already!''

In Canterlot Castle, a guard walked out from Celestia's chambers. He was covered in gold and looked dead tired.

''Thank you guard for accompanying me for the whole night. This painting wouldn't be able to finish itself, if not for you.'' Celestia thanked the guard.

''I'm trained to stay still for a day, your highness! It's my duty, to act like a statue and guard the Castle with my intimidating posture. And it was my honor, to help the Princess.'' The guard answered, glad to help out the princess.

''Very well, guard. If you excuse me, I need to finish the last touches...'' Celestia nodded at the guard, pleased with his answer.

''Certainly, your highness!'' He bowed and went back to duty.

Celestia closed her door and walked up to her painting. She levitated the painting hat onto a little stool, which she got from Prance and looked over her work. A golden stallion, wearing the full body armor on him and looking serious. The golden stallion was doing an impressive pose, wings extended and front hooves lifted up from the ground. She was happy, that the guard didn't find creepy, that she invited him to her chambers for the whole night.

''If I recall, we did joked about it. My, if anypony would heard this, than that somepony would probably misunderstood the whole night's conversation.'' She giggled and signed under her masterpiece.

After she packed away her painting tools and every other stuff she used, she looked outside. It was still early to raise the sun, so she went to her bed and quickly fell asleep, trying to get as much rest as she can...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''You... you... you're creepy and really weird, you know that?''

''Nnope...'' Pyromancer answered, after he told Dash, how he left the Princess of the Night and Traveler in the cave.

Flashback...

Pyromancer stared at the blue, 'night' flame, next to the green, purple, red, and blue flame. He never saw anything like that, so he just stared in amazement. Even if it was a burning flame, he felt kinda cold, but calmed nonetheless.

''Angel of the Night...'' He said quietly, not wanting to disturb the honorable presence of the great flame.

He watched, as the blue flame slowly died out, then fully disappeared. He felt disappointed, so he left the cave and decided to let go of his disappointment and anger. He flew and flew and flew, mane and tail burning. Though he felt something slamming against him, but he ignored it. He loved the feeling of being unstoppable and he just kept going forward.

As he flew higher, the effect of the stuff he smoked, started to worn out. His vision changed and he found himself above the clouds. As he looked down, the Everfree Forest was on fire. ''Wow... guess that's why they call me PYROMANCER! WEEEEEE~!''

He heard a mare shouting for help and spotted the Pinkie Pies, on top of Rainbow Dash. ''This is a crime, no one rapes a mare, except Gravity...'' He muttered to himself and freed Rainbow Dash from the gang bang.

''My hero! Here, take my body as my gratitude!'' Rainbow Dash said and stayed on the ground, legs sprawled out.

He grinned and was about to-

''DUDE! WHAT THE HAY! I DIDN'T SAY THAT!''

Flashback over

''Who said that you didn't say that?'' Pyromancer asked, raising an eyebrow at Rainbow Dash.

''Oh I don't know... ME!'' Rainbow shouted, blushing. ''This didn't happen and if you dare to tell this to the others, I'm gonna show your face under the ground!''

''I know it didn't happen, I'm just telling my story, when I was high...'' Pyromancer explained, like it was an absolutely okay situation.

Rainbow groaned and facehoofed.

They continued walking in the forest. Rainbow followed him, since he knew where Traveler and Luna were. As they were walking, they soon heard the ground shaking and the cheerful laughter and shouts.

Rainbow looked back and spotted another horde of Pinkie Pies. ''They're coming!''

''HA! They what?!'' Pyromancer laughed and looked amused at Rainbow Dash.

''NOT LIKE THAT YOU JERK! RUN!''

The two shot out like bullets. Pyromancer leaving his signature streak behind him and Rainbow soon reaching her maximum speed. After a loud explosion, both of them were dodging the trees, at break neck speed. Dive under, dodge to the sides, slip over and break through, they kept going between the trees and branches.

They already left behind the Pinkie Pies, but their stunts and tricks kept them going. They really enjoyed the speed, the danger and adrenaline. The streaks they left were a pretty amazing sight and they even worked together. Like an air performance...

There was that one time, when both of them dodged the same branch. Rainbow went over it and Pyromancer dived under it. As they kept flying, a tree was blocking their way and they dodged it from both sides. Before they could slam against each other, they turned their bodies with 180 degrees and Dash flew over Pyromancer.

Both of them wore that daredevil expressions, as they passed each other, a few inches between them...

They span around several times, before they recollected themselves and continued flying. Two tree came after the previous one and they flew around them, from both sides. They recollected themselves and were about to continue flying, when they took a sharp turn towards each other. Before they could slam against each other, they turned their bodies with ninety degrees and continued flying, while looking at the other one in the eye.

Again, they exchanged looks. Rainbow really enjoyed their performance and it was visible. Pyromancer had... well... he wore some kind of face... let's just say that...

A big wall of branches blocked their ways and they used their hooves, to push away each other, just in time, before they could crash into the branches. Again, they flew back next to each other and they found themselves on a clearer path. Just a few branches and trees, easily dodgeable. (It's not a word...)

''WOOOOHHHOOOOO! THAT IS AWESOME!'' Shouted Pyromancer, trying to be louder than the wind.

''I must say: Even if you're dumb, you can fly pretty good!'' Rainbow shouted back, impressed how easily they worked together.

''I TAKE THAT AS A COMPLIMENT!'' Pyromancer grinned evilly.

There was a small gap between two trees and it was only wide enough for one pegasus. But Pyromancer had other plans.

''WANNA DO SOMETHING WILD?!''

''I guess you don't mean it in that way!'' Shouted back Rainbow, raising her eyebrow.

''OF COURSE NOT! LET'S FLY THROUGH THAT TIGHT HOLE TOGETHER!'' He explained.

''And you just have to say that!'' Shook her head Rainbow Dash, but knew what he was trying to do.

So again, the two pegasi closed the gap between them, ninety degree turn, smirking at each other and they started spinning. They streaks got mixed together, making the whole trick even more dazzling. The gap started to get really close and Pyromancer tried to close the gap between him and Rainbow. But she held him back with her hooves. ''In you're dreams big boy!''

Pyromancer just grinned. ''YOU THOUGHT I WANT TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF OUR POSITION?! COME OOOON I'M NOT LIKE THAT!'' Pyromancer pouted, jokingly.

''I can hear you talking, but you still trying to get closer!'' Rainbow looked at him, a knowing smile formed on her lips. Then the daredevil smirk returned... ''Tree, incoming!''

The two moved their heads forward, trying to not get their skulls smashed to pieces. But Pyromancer sticked out too much and blasted down a small chunk from the tree... and a branch stuck onto his head...

''OH MY GOSH! Are you alright?!'' Rainbow's eyes widened, starting to regret for not letting him just a little bit closer. Even if he would do something a little bit naughty...

''I HAVE A HAT BITCHES!'' Pyromancer shouted, as the branch on his head wouldn't let go of his forehead. Its leaves were covering his line of sight, but he continued flying anyways...

Rainbow soon started laughing too, as Pyromancer kept on bragging about his new hat...

Celestia waited for her sister to go to sleep. She usually waited for her sister to start lowering the moon, since Luna enjoyed staying up. Even if she was the Night Alicorn, she enjoyed both daylight and moonlight.

That's why Celestia waited patiently for her sister. She always let her little sister staying up as longs as she can. She was gone for a really long time and only a few years went by. So when Celestia felt her sister, lowering the moon, she would raise the sun.

And vice versa. Celestia usually lowers the sun early, letting her sister to start her shift earlier. Celestia doesn't mind her, not like she had anything for the night, that needs the sunlight. This also gave her more time to sleep and get some rest, after a long day.

But most importantly... it made Luna happy...

And if Luna was happy... she was happy...

So Celestia waited and waited...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

They continued flying and the number of trees started to decrease. The path where they were flying, started to get brighter, as the end of the forest started to get closer.

''I CAN SEE THE LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL!'' Pyromancer shouted, his awesome branch hat still covering his eyes.

''Are you dying?!'' Asked Rainbow Dash, looking confused.

His answer was pretty normal... ''I HAVE NO IDEA!''

The light started to get brighter and they reached their ends...

''Their ends? Author, you should stop saying these suggestive lines!''

Pinkie! You're blocking the view!

''Oh! Sorry, go on!''

Ahem... And so they left the last trees behind them and they found themselves at...

''Ponyville...?'' Rainbow Dash muttered, dumbfounded.

Pyromancer did not stop and went through a house. In that house, a stallion was tied to a bed, a cloth in his mouth, preventing him from screaming. A Pinkie Pie clone was sitting on top of him, grinning down at the poor and random stallion.

Rainbow's mouth dropped, her eyes widened and she looked absolutely lost. Meanwhile, Pyromancer was picking himself up from the ground, after he went through a bedroom, a living room and finally stopped rolling on the street. His hat intact of course... ''At least my hat was on me...''

''Are you bucking KIDDING ME?!'' Shouted a frustrated Rainbow Dash.

''No, my hat actually protected me.'' Replied Pyromancer.

''NOT THAT YOU IDIOT! YOU BROUGHT ME BACK TO PONYVILLE, INSTEAD OF BRINGING ME TO TRAVELER!'' Rainbow's face was red from the anger.

''You actually said: Bring me to the source of the problems!'' Pyromancer corrected.

''AND BY THAT, I MEANT TRAVELER! IF HE IS NOT HERE, THEN WE ARE DOOMED! WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY ABOUT YOURSELF?!'' Rainbow shouted, even more angrier.

Pyromancer glanced up at his hat, blowing away some of the leaves from his eyes. ''My hat is the best hat...''

Rainbow cried out and gave chase after Pyromancer, who tried to get away from the angry pegasus, screaming his lungs out...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Sister, where are you?''

Celestia said out loud, glancing at the clock in her room. The sun supposed to be raised already and Luna was late. A hour ago, Celestia looked into Luna's room, only to find it empty. Luna went to somewhere and Celestia had no idea where she could go.

Eventually, she decided to raise the sun, since the ponies had to start the day already. As the sun caught up with the time, she could hear much more noise from outside the Castle. Seeing that she has to start her shift, Celestia started walking to the throne room, ready to listen to the nobel ponies complains.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

As Rainbow and Pyromancer were still playing their first round of tag, the citizens of Ponyville woke up. But the poor and random stallion lived in a far away house, on the edge of Ponyville and that's why nopony heard anything from there. And the kinky clone Pinkie still had tons of energy...

''OUT OF THE WAY!''

Both Rainbow and Pyromancer shouted and the town folks tried their best to avoid getting hit by a fast pegasus. Even if they were taking this seriously, both of them couldn't miss a chance to show off their tricks. Flying amongst the crowd, between the alleys and flying through Applejacks apple stand... the latter pissed off the mare and she gave chase after the two...

And to the top of the chaos, the clone Pinkie Pies came back...

Soon, the whole town turned upside down... again... so that means it's downside up? Nah, probably not... Let's just say, the chaos was too much to describe...

And the new hero of the day...

''Twilight, are you sure you got it right? What if we send the real Pinkie back?'' Asked Spike, still wearing his 'Traveler gear'...

''This is our only chance, Spike. You don't have to understand this, since you're just a baby-'' Twilight started to explain...

''Understood...'' Spike answered, voice deeper and his hood on.

''Oh... uhm... okay...''

''GET BACK HERE!''

''NO SHIT!''

''Both of ya' can stop ragh' 'ere!''

Pyromancer, Rainbow Dash and Applejack ran by Twilight's library and the unicorn and badflank dragon just stood there, confused. Spike was the one, who broke the silence. ''Let's get down to business...''

''Right.'' Twilight said and Spike climbed on top of her back, exactly how Traveler would do it.

So the five ran around Ponyville, chasing each other, coming in one door and going out on the other side of the street and all the impossible stuff. Only Spike found it ridiculous...

Their little show draw the attention of Pinkie Pies, before they could go to the Sweet Apple Acres and ruin their farm and barn. Giggling and bouncing, they went back to Ponyville...

''Go minions, I have to take care of a really big problem!'' The True Pinkie Pie said and quickly ran inside Sugarcube Corner and into the Fillies Room...

And the other Pinkie Pies followed the funny chasing, which could be placed in a comedy movie...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''So... what was that all about?''

Rainbow Dash, Pyromancer and Applejack exchanged looks, before all three of them started talking at the same time.

''At first, this bitch tried to rape me... twice and then kill me with branches. But my hat was the best hat and I survived and I want taco. I did not get such a thing by you. The Night Angel was in my head, you're ugly! So your arguement is invalid! DON'T YELL INTO MY EARS!''
''This jerk tried to be a hero and expected me to do something really nasty with him, while he got a huge wingboner by my look. What did you call me?! I'm gonna get you for that, when these ropes release us! AJ, get these ropes off me! BOTH OF YOU CAN STOP SCREAMING!''
''They wer' out tha control Twi. They nearly ruin' mah apple stand an' they didn' stop, when Ah asked 'em. Well, Ah'll be honest with ya, but AH'M ALL TIED UP TOO!''

''ENOUGH!'' Roared Spike, silencing the whole argument.

''Thank you Spike.'' Nodded Twilight at Spike and cleared her throat. ''Listen up, I have an idea, about: How to get rid of these Pinkie Pies!'' She declared and started explaining.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Wow, this plan is awesome and I can take a nap, while you guys do that!''

''Why Twilight, that's a darn good idea!''

''I don't like the way you're looking at me...''

Everypony looked at Pyromancer and Twilight. She was looking at him strangely and soon a wide grin formed on her face. ''I have plans for you...'' She said and untied Applejack, then Rainbow. The farm mare held back Rainbow, from hurting the now, scared Pyromancer...

''I'm bucked...''

And there went our burning pegasus, trying many things to free himself. Igniting his tail and mane was nothing for Twilight's magic, or for a bucked of water. Screaming was a bad idea too, since Applejack had a lot of apples. And squirming was the worst idea, because Rainbow looked small, but her hits can hurt really much.

Just as his mind started to get filled with rape images and all the kinky stuff, they placed him on a stage and all the Pinkie Pies swarmed inside. He spitted out the apple and started yelling. ''YOU WANT ME TO SATISFY ALL OF THEM?! I CAN DEAL WITH YOU THREE, BUT THEY ARE PINKIE PIES!''

The girls looked at each other and Traveler Spike faceclawed. ''I know how to deal with him...'' Spoke up Rainbow Dash and kicked him in a place.

(And now imagine the Scout's voice from Team Fortress 2...)

''MY BALLS!''
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

It was a miracle, when Pyromancer finally calmed down and agreed to help. He just had to do some funny and random things. How hard it can be? If a Pinkie Pie laughs, then that one have to go. If they can hold back their laughter, since they saw enough random things in their lives, then one of them is the real Pinkie Pie. They just have to find that one...

His first trick was igniting his tail and mane. Half of the Pinkie Pies wanted to run up to him and have some 'fun' with him, but Twilight sent them home... and by that, she made them vanish from existence...

''Oh... my...''

The girls, Pyromancer and Traveler Spike turned towards the entrance. There stood Rarity and Fluttershy, dumbfounded by the scene. Pyromancer got an idea...

He pulled out some kind of red shampoo thing and presented it to the others. He crashed himself into a sink, somewhere behind the stage, where some bathrooms were and came back with a towel around him. He put on the most heart stealingly sexy face and said...

''Hello ladies... wanna taste the power of Old Spice?''

''YAAAAY! LET'S HAVE FUN!''

Twilight quickly shot the Pinkie Pies, who wanted to have fun with Pyromancer. Now only the quarter of the Pinkie Pies remained and Pyromancer tried his best to show the most funniest and randomest for his audience.

Meanwhile, Rainbow and Applejack explained to Rarity and Fluttershy what is happening and why is the blue pegasus eying Fluttershy.

Before Rarity can say something about 'Eying a mare like that is not nice', Pyromancer shrugged and trotted up to them. He pulled Fluttershy close to him and whispered something into her ears. And of course, she blushed by his gesture...

After Pyromancer trotted back to the middle of the stage, Fluttershy sighed and followed him. Pyromancer grinned and pulled out two sunglasses out of nowhere. He adjusted his position to look even more cooler and but on a serious face. (Something like that ---> >:-| )

He poked Fluttershy in her side, making her yelp and extend her wings, wide. He pulled a rope from the side of the stage and every curtain on the windows blocked out the sun, making the room pitch dark. Then he hid behind Fluttershy and ignited his mane and tail. Fluttershy used her stare to look intimidating, as the flames behind her made her appearance even more scary.

The Pinkie Pies watched in awe, as they found the scary scene, simply amazing. When the curtains moved away from the windows, Pyromancer stopped burning and some sweat rolled down from his forehead.

''Well... that was arousing and hot...'' He commented and one Pinkie couldn't hold back her laughter. Twilight shot her with that disappearing spell and silence filled the room, very quickly. ''Boy, that escalated quickly...''
Two more Pinkie Pies...

He noticed the scorch marks on the stage and hummed. ''Looks like something is...'' He put on the sunglasses and poked Fluttershy too, alerting her about his plan.

After she quickly put on the sunglasses, Pyromancer continued his quote, while holding his serious face...

A lot of Pinkie Pies cheered and all of them went after their teammates too. Pyromancer whispered something into Fluttershy's ears and she looked confused. But she knew better than questioning the strange pegasus.

She stepped forward, shrugged and spoke up...

''Hey... stay out of my shed...'' She said it in an innocent voice and fluttered her wings and eyelashes...

Half of the present Pinkie Pies had to leave... we will always remember all of you...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Celestia had a hard time, keeping her nerves in check. Her sister was missing and she had to find her. But where could she be? Where could Luna went? Did she visit somepony?

... or someone...

''I am terribly sorry Captain Highclaw, but we have to cut short this meeting. There is an urgent case, which I have to solve immediately...''

Celestia stood up and trotted out of the throne room, leaving a surprised griffin alone...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Pyromancer had a hard time, trying to think of random things... no... making up random things. He wasn't a comedian, he was just Pyromancer, just like Pinkie Pie being Pinkie Pie.

''Somepony called me?''

All eyes turned towards the entrance door, where the real Pinkie Pie realized her mistake...
Twilight grabbed her with a simple levitation spell and placed her on the front of the audience. She shrugged and watched Pyromancers attempts at making up random stuff.

Rainbow started to get frustrated. ''Come on, I can do better than you!''

Pyromancer pulled out a wizard hat from somewhere. ''Bitch, I'm a wizard!''

While two Pinkie Pie had to leave, the real one just rolled her eyes.

Rainbow frowned at him. ''Say it again, I dare you!''

''Wrong! Say it, I dare you! No shit, I double dare you, mother fucka!'' He retorted, making two Pinkie Pie to lose their lives and the real one to facehoof. Rainbow decided to just stay silent, seeing as he got the hang of it again.

''Does she look like a bitch?!'' Pyromancer pointed at Rarity, who was about to hand him out (hoof out?) , with ladylike words, for saying something like that...

That's when something unexpected happened...

Princess Celestia landed at the entrance, making the light outside shining inside even more brighter. She looked surprised to see more than one Pinkie Pie.

''Buck the police!'' Pyromancer shouted and jumped out of the window, leaving a now confused Celestia.

''Princess, what's wrong?'' Asked Twilight.

''Oh, she's here because Luna disappeared and now she needs our help to find her.'' Spoke up Pinkie Pie, before she could stop herself.

The girls looked at the other Pinkie Pies, who were busy laughing at Pyromancers act. Twilight quickly made them disappear and trotted up to her mentor. ''Does it true, Princess?''

''Indeed, Twilight Sparkle. Luna haven't showed up this morning and I'm afraid Traveler has something to do with it...''

''Ah knew we shouldn' thrus' in 'im. Aftah what he did wit' that Sombra...'' Applejack trailed off.

''He had his own reason to do that...'' Corrected her Traveler Spike, still sounding serious.

''And I didn't even say a single thanks for him. Now he's probably angry at us...'' Twilight looked down in shame.

''I don't know Twi, he refused to help us, but he didn't hurt me yesterday. He just... left... and went to hide from Pinkie Pie, I think...'' Rainbow said, thoughtfully.

''Oh yeah, he was inside the Everfree Forest, really deep. Well, I would send my minions after him, but Twilight banned them from the server...'' Pinkie smiled happily, while she received strange stares...

''Well... I think that's it. We have to find Traveler! Luna must be with him right now...'' Twilight said and the others agreed.

''Thank you, my little ponies. I appreciate your help.'' Bowed Celestia and the mane six and Traveler Spike bowed too.

''Hey! Pyromancer knows where he is! I'm gonna catch him and we can find Traveler after that!'' Rainbow spoke up and the others agreed.

''My faithful student!'' Celestia picked up Twilight's attention. ''Would you kindly fill me in with some information? I have to catch up with all of you...'' She admitted.

''Of course Princess!'' Answered Twilight, happy to help her mentor.

Pyromancer arrived at the cave, panting. He just had enough time, to go to that random stallion and say 'DED!' at the passed out and his over raped body... and only after that, he decided to go back to the cave...

Thankfully, he never told to Rainbow Dash, where Traveler and Luna were. Speaking of Luna, she was still in the same position.

Inside Pyromancer's head, something snapped, as she saw Luna from behind. Her head was still bent down, touching Traveler with her horn. And she just stood there, motionlessly.

Pyromancer made his first move...

He dived behind a rock and looked at his target. A strange smile on his face...

Then he rolled to the other side of the cave and grinned creepily...

Suddenly, his head popped out from the ground, like it was a trap door and grinned evilly...

Pulling back his head under the ground, for some unknown reasons, he was hovering behind Luna, a bit higher than her...

''Surprise, butt sex...''

As the words left his mouth, Luna stirred and both her and Traveler woke up...

''Agh, for the love of buck!''

Author's Note

Well... i don't really know what to say. Here's the chapter, random as buck and I kinda got the hang of Applejack's and Celestia's lines. I enjoyed writing their lines, very much...

After this, you all can guess what happens... explanation time with Luna, Traveler and Pyromancer. Also, as all of you can see, I'm jumping from place to place. You saw that at the 'Ancient Castle' scenes and that meant something big will happen. And since I'm doing it again, that means: ''Something big is going to happen!''

But that is enough for you about future chapters. No spoilers from now...

Hope you enjoyed this and have a good night!

PS.: I use so many sex jokes lately... this means something too... *Hint* Hint*

PSS.: I think I rushed the editing. If you see a mistake, then I apologize! kinda tired after school...
Oh! And leave a random comment please, because this chapter is random... makes sense, right?

Dream World : Part One - Floya' and the Universe

IMPORTANT: In this chapter, you will see the explanation about this universe. You may probably see elements from religions and games, but believe me: I had this idea about this universe, BEFORE I got to know about legends and those games!
What i want to say is, if you feel offended by this religion and game twisting, then I'm terribly sorry! It's JUST a fiction and I'm not declaring the things in this universe to be true!

Dream World : Part One - Floya' and the Universe

''Agh, for the love of buck!'' Pyromancer said in frustration, when he missed his big opportunity.

Luna and Traveler 'woke' up at the same time. Though Traveler cried out and looked terrified, Luna just stared at him in sympathy. As Traveler's harsh breathing increased, Luna started to regret making him fall asleep. But if she didn't do it, she would never get to know what happened to him...

''Traveler, calm down! It was only a memory! These things are in your past, none of this will happen again!'' Luna tried to calm him down.

Traveler's posture got back its 'ready' state, as he stopped panting and looked at Luna. His serious expression bothered her...
''It happened recently...''

Luna's eyes widened. Images of nearly destroying the Crystal Mountains flowed through her mind and the middle of this images, an enraged Traveler. ''H... how? When?!'' She asked him, slightly panicking.

Traveler stayed silent for a while, still regaining from his bad memories. ''Sombra... I reached the Breaking Point... and the monster returned... me...''

''Traveler...'' Luna spoke up, quietly, not to make Traveler afraid of her request. ''... want to go back to your dreams?''

''I don-''

''But THIS time... no more memories. Just your Dream World, where everything happens and WILL happen, as YOU want!'' Luna quickly interrupted him, before he can say 'no'. She wanted to fix her mistake, since she didn't interrupted his memories. She felt guilty for that, but it was only for background information. It was necessary... to help him...

''Everything happens... as I want...'' Traveler repeated her words, considering the promising deal.

After a few minutes of silence and before Pyromancer could say: ''3 hours later...'' Traveler nodded.

''To the Dream World we go then!'' Declared the Alicorn Princess and charged up her spell. Traveler took one last breath and closed his eyes. He didn't know what a normal person do before falling asleep, but he guessed it was about relaxing and such...

As Luna's horn started to get closer to Traveler's forehead, Pyromancer quickly charged at Traveler. ''No way in Equestria you will leave me out from this!''

And just as the spell transported Luna into Traveler's mind, Pyromancer touched Luna's cutie mark and his consciousness disappeared too...

In Ponyville, the girls were organizing their search team, splitting up to three groups. Celestia knew Twilight all too well and expected her student, to chose her as a partner. The Sun Princess even found the unicorn's choice useful, since Twilight could explain a lot of things about the recent events.

Since Rainbow Dash flew off, searching after Pyromancer and probably wanting to beat him up, Celestia took her part, to search from the skies. Twilight was too shocked by what Celestia made her to do. Being a big Alicorn, Celestia wanted Twilight to sit on her back, while they soar through the clouds. Needles to say, she fainted and the Alicorn Princess levitated the student on top of her back.

Spike was unsure about the whole thing, but as he pulled up his hood, he immediately agreed to ride on the Princess' back. This made her take a note to self: ''Examine those clothes, for any magical energy...''

And so, Celestia and on her back with two of her friends, started the search. Up in the sky, her sun shining down to Equestria and she herself, enjoyed the flight. Traveler Spike enjoyed way too much, as he only thought about the epicness.

He already ride on an Alicorn Princess and now one of the Ruler of Equestria gave him the chance, to feel awesome again...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Pyromancer only felt the Night Princess' soft fur for a moment and before he could savor the calm feeling, he found himself in a field. It was night time and the moon illuminated the lone area. Even in dark, the moonlight was enough to make everything visible. Every haulm on the field, every line on the trees and the details of the leaves... everything was clear.

In the distance, the mountains peeked out from behind the forests and in the far away part of this new world, a big ocean. The moon's reflection was clear and it looked like the big, white orb duplicated itself. A gentle breeze blew through the stallion's fur, sending small shivers down his spine. Even if he was hot head, sometimes literally, the whole scenery was so relaxing...

''ARE THO MAD?! BRINGING A BEAST LIKE HIM TO HELP US?!''

A loud, booming voice disturbed the peace of the moment and the flame maned pegasus tuned around. He spotted a frowning Princess and a Traveler, who probably suffered ear drum damage...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''And is this measure correct?''

''Uhm... yes. I kinda unsure about why you asked me about his size... if, you don't mind me saying this...''

Rarity and Fluttershy was outside Ponyville, visiting familiar places. The two decided to check out some known part of the outskirts of Ponyville, hopefully finding Traveler and the Princess. Rarity took the timid pegasus by surprise, when she asked about Sprint's measure...

''Oh, darling! I'm just simply curious. And I wanted to make him a fancy outfit for the next gala.'' Said the fashionista, eyes glimmering at the thought of a well dressed Sprint.

''O-okay.'' Fluttershy was still unsure about her friend's question.

''But I will probably have to measure him by myself. Not to offend you Fluttershy, but your calculations can be inaccurate. You just groomed him a long time ago, so...'' Rarity trailed off, giving a sheepish smile.

''Oh, don't say that Rarity! I'm not sure either if that's his actual size...'' Reassured Fluttershy, smiling at her friend.

Rarity's eyes literally sparkled for a moment, when she got an idea. ''Tell me darling... what was it like? I mean, grooming him?''

''Oh, just the usual. First I...''

And the yellow pegasus told Rarity, how she took care of Sprint. The unicorn listened in interest, trying to remember every detail about the fine horse. Little did the pegasus know, that Rarity only asked this, because she had other plans with these informations...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''... Sorry?'' Traveler regained himself from the loud voice, checking if his ears were bleeding.

''SORRY?! YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH DANGER YOU BROUGHT TO EQUESTRIA!'' The Royal Canterlot Voice assaulted his ears again, as Luna continued yelling.

''I SAW EVERYTHING TRAVELER! I KNOW WHO HE WAS AND I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU CHOSE HIM TO HELP US!''

''BE GRATEFUL THAT HE HELPED YOU OUT!'' Traveler shouted back, covering his ears.

''HE COULD HAVE KILLED US ALL!''

''BUT NOT THAT PART OF HIM!''

''What?''

To Traveler's luck, Luna stopped yelling and he opened his eyes to see the Princess, looking confused by his words. ''Finally!'' He let down his arms and turned fully towards her. ''Now, if you allow me to explain...''

''HIS OTHER PART IS EVEN WORSE!''

''AHH! MY EARS!''

''AHHHAHHAAAHHHHAAAAA!'' Pyromancer laughed, as he watched the amusing scene between Luna and Traveler.

He thought that place couldn't be more better. But soon, the awesome scenery got amusing and he had everything he wanted in a world... ''Awesome place, big area, sexy lady and amusement? If this is the end of my life, then I would die happily...''

He realized his words and couldn't miss the chance. ''DED!'' And he dropped to ground, tongue lolling out from his mouth and remained motionless. But in his mind, he was laughing and not just at his own act. He continued listening at the two supernatural being, as one of them yelled the head off from the other one...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Applejack hoped for a better day. No, she wasn't an EMO! She just wanted that day to get better...

Pinkie Pie showed the white of her teeth, when she started being Pinkie Pie... as always...
The illogical and ridiculous things she did, started to drive the farm mare crazy. How in Equestria was she able to survive the pink, walking energy drink. You know, that kind of drink which makes you go overboard and literally kicks you out of sleep. And in Pinkie's situation, she was two or three times hyper, as that drink...

First, the farm mare woke up the whole family, because she couldn't forget about Sprint. She had to miss breakfast, to change sheets to her bed...
Then her apples got violated, by two hothead pegasus and got tied together with them.
She had to spend a few hours, to wait until a strange pegasus reveals the real Pinkie Pie.
Nearly got a heart attack, when the clone Pinkie Pies reached Sweet Apple Acres.
The Lunar Princess disappeared and Celestia needs her help, totally ruining her schedule...

And now... she has to listen to Pinkie's randomness...

... and singing too...

''Hey, I just met you
And this is crazy!
Well here's my address
So come here baby!''

''Uh...Sugarcube-''

''CORNER! You want to go to Sugarcube Corner?! Are you 'Hung-ary'? Why didn't you say so, I brought some cupcakes!''

''Pinkie...''

''Oh don't get me wrong. I'm not gonna bake you, even if we're in the Everfree Forest. Nopony can see us, yes, but the author has plans with you.''

''Pinkie.''

''You see, he has this plan with you and-''

''PINKIE!''

''Yes?''

Applejack tiredly pointed her hoof up at the sky, where a rainbow maned pegasus was flying. Rainbow Dash, she didn't see them and Applejack tried to shout up for her. But Pinkie already took care of that...

''Let me do it, AJ. You'll need your voice soon...'' Pinkie cleared her throat and did the unexpected...

''FUS RO DAH!''

Applejack jumped by the sudden shout. A phoenix fell down from the tree, its eyes wide and blinked several times, trying to process what just happened...
Pinkie's bla-bla language actually worked, as Rainbow noticed them and glided down.

''There you are guys! I was searching for yo-'' Rainbow started, but Pinkie cut in.

''We're girls, not guys...''

Applejack and Rainbow Dash gave her a blank expression, getting tired of her games...

''Okay... GIRLS... I was looking for you. What happened?''

''We split up, s' we can search fo' the Princess and Sprint much easier.'' Explained Applejack, rubbing her eyes to wake up.

''You mean Traveler, right?'' Raised an eyebrow Rainbow Dash.

''Of course, who do ya thin' Ah'm talkin' bout?'' Applejack asked, remaining oblivious to her own words.

''You said Sprint...'' Deadpanned Dash, giving her a knowing grin.

''Ah didn't! A-Ah said Spirit!'' Failed Applejack to lie...

Pinkie placed a hoof on the earth pony's shoulder and smiled. ''Come on Applejack! You don't have to hide your feelings and I know what happened to you this morning...'' The pink mare winked at her friend, making her blush and her eyes to widen. ''Just like you Dashie!''

Rainbow stopped snickering at the new color of Applejack's face and looked confused. ''What do you mean?''

''Oh nothing. I just heard from the birds, that Sprint winked at you from time to time and your cheeks got that cute blush like AJ's here...'' Pinkie explained, voice dripping from innocence.

''He did what?!'' Applejack asked, a bit too forcefully.

''And Dashie woke up next to Sprint, Traveler and Hunter at one time...'' Pinkie added, definitely making the farm mare red from rage.

''How do you know that?! Nopony was around... Fluttershy...'' The pegasus growled in annoyance.

''I got my sources...'' Pinkie started trotting forward, where they were originally headed. She did her part, just as she had to and started humming her song again, while listening to the two behind her. An evil grin formed on her lips, as the argument between Rainbow and Applejack got louder and louder and even more awkward.

Sprint will have to deal with TWO mare in the future, racing for him...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Pyromancer was still lying on the ground, thought his eyes were open now. He watched Traveler and mostly Luna, as they slowly calmed down and soon stopped shouting. Silence lingered in the cool air, calming down everyone in the area. Traveler was the one who broke this silence...

''So... I think some explanation will be needed.''

Luna sighed, fully calming down. ''Indeed...''

Traveler nodded and started. ''I have to clarify this first. Equestria was not in danger! I'm sure you saw that man, named Dhuradhan, talking to himself... correct?'' Luna nodded and he continued. ''That was his Dark self, but that part of him is named Dhanthas, which means 'Dark' in the Ancient Elder's language.''

''But! He sent his Light self, Dhuradhan for help, which means 'Light'. I don't know how, but somehow he can separate himself from his selves. And that part of him is nothing like that one, who you saw in my past. So again, yelling at me was unnecessary and threatening.''

Luna nodded in understatement and smiled sheepishly. ''Oh, I apologize. But you have to understand my outburst. We have to keep our subjects safe and what I saw in your memories was definitely not peaceful...''

''I understand... but next time, think before you decide to destroy my ears...'' Traveler rubbed his ears, still hearing that ringing sound. ''So... anything else?''

Luna thought about a question, but there were so many. So, she decided to put all of her questions, into one big.

''What was that all about?''

Traveler's slightly changed. He just started to enjoy the conversation and this new place, but he still had to explain a really big thing. Sighing, he looked towards the ocean and he started walking that way. ''Walk with me.''

Luna followed him and Pyromancer picked himself up from the comfortable grass, following and listening to Traveler's words. He missed a lot, since he had no idea what they were talking about.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Somewhere high in the sky, Twilight woke up on Celestia's back. At first, she didn't know where she was, or why was her bed feels so alive. Then she felt the wind blowing against her and saw Spike, sitting in front of her. He looked like he was doing his roleplay games, since he looked really entertained by his ride...

''Wait, ride?''

Twilight looked up, gasping and panicking. Celestia glanced back and smiled at her student. ''Hello Twilight! I see you're awe-''

Twilight fainted again...

Celestia sighed. ''Spike, please don't lean to the sides. What if the wind changes and you lose your grip?''

''I'm fine Princess, but if you insist...''

And they continued flying, Twilight passed out, Spike holding onto Celestia's neck and her majesty scanning the trees below...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Pyromancer caught up with the two, strong being. Just in time, when Traveler started his tale...

''It all started with him... Balance got out of control, due to his life's dark times. He never explained what happened, but he was actually kind, thoughtful and careful... But he changed... and the Light Elders didn't like it...''

''They took away his cross, locking away his powers inside it and gave it to Floya'. She was considered as a half Avatar and you can say... she was Balance's sister, but he has no sister in his bloodline. I still don't know why was she connected to him... But they gave HER the Avatar's powers. And why her? Because of the connection... only the Avatar can use the Balance's powers...''

''Balance suffered... While he had his powers, he was bitten by a vampire, while he was having sex with her.''

Pyromancer forced back his laughter. ''Well that's just kinky...''

Traveler continued.
''He was hungry for blood and thanks to his Dark energy, it turned into cannibalism, but he had control over this hunger...''

''Cannibalism?'' Asked Luna, looking confused.

''Cannibalism: When you eat your own kind.
So imagine him'' Traveler pointed at Pyromancer. ''killing you, then eating your meat. That is cannibalism...''

''I WOULD NEVER DO THAT TO THE ANGEL OF THE NIGHT!'' The pegasus' mane and tail lit up for a second, then he bowed to the Princess. Luna appreciated his words and gesture, so nodding back at him, she continued listening to Traveler. Meanwhile, Pyromancer's eyes sparkled, as his wings erected a bit. ''First move: success.'' He whispered to himself, confidence filling his mind.

''He half fought and half let his hunger getting the better out of him. Since he had no powers, he couldn't hold back himself. And without powers, finishing his prey and leaving the body unnoticed was impossible. He spent months, living in forests and eating animals, trying to satisfy his hunger...''

''While he was having these problems, Floya' got the cross and obtained all of Balance's work. The strenght of many Shadows, Traitor Angels, smaller Spirits and a demigods speed, named Daredevil. He consumed all of these souls' powers into his cross and Floya' just obtained it like a present.''

''Knowing that, obtaining that huge amount of power under one day, The Light watched every move of hers. Surprisingly, she remained kind and caring. She still helped the Lost Souls and-''

''What are these... Lost Souls?'' Asked Luna, interrupting him.

''When you die, you can go to two place. The Light, or as most know it... Heaven... or you can go to Hell. Your soul decides where you go and you WILL accept your fate, wherever you end up.''

''And what is this Hell? I heard you mentioning it, just like that Dhuradhan... or Balance... I don't know how to call him...'' Luna asked, as they reached a forests entrance and they continued their way inside the woods.

''Hell: Where every sinner ends up. If you lived your life clearly, you end up in The Light... but if you committed one serious sin, you go to Hell.
Hell has more places than The Light...
If you died as a greedy thief, you end up in Hell's middle level. There, they hold you captive and torture you with golden tools. So pretty much... you wanted gold, jewelry and treasure? It's alright, since they will give you that in a painful way...''

''If you lived your life as a killer and have a connection with blood, they throw you into The Blood River. From there, there is a cliff, where the river ends and the blood falls down. You will fall for ages, before you fall into The Sinners Lake. From that moment, you will be drowning for eternity in the blood, along with the other murders...''

''If you committed suicide, you end up in the Black Woods. They hang you up on a tree and you will watch your loved ones, suffering because of you. For eternity, you will watch them crying and suffering and all because of you, ending your life and leaving them behind. And while this happens, the trees slowly surrounds you and turns you into a tree too.''

''Traitors, cowards and liars. They will be freezing at the bottom of Hell, in the Scaly Mountains. The ice go through their hearts and they can't do anything, just feel the pain... the same pain, like those felt, when these Traitors betrayed them...''

''Anger... those who hurt others for their own amusement and made other souls' life miserable. Or they were too aggressive towards others... they end up at one of the highest points of Hell. There are a lot of vulcans, where these enraged souls will burn forever. Fire raining and everything is burning. Ironic punishment...''

''Those, whose minds were clouded with lust and desire, they go to a big tower. There, they can find their desire, but as soon as they want to satisfy their hunger for sex, they will feel pain and ecstasy. The opposite gender lashes out with whips and holds them under pressure and terror. They want to do it more and more, but at the same time, they don't enjoy it.''

''... I can't picture sex to be painful... only with whips...'' Mused Pyromancer, trying to imagine the big sex tower... he had a really dirty image about the form of that tower...

''And there is the Limbo. The souls, who never committed any of the more serious sins, but lived their life bad... they will be preys... They have to hide and run, trying to survive in a dead wasteland. If they die, they have to continue running from somewhere else. Over and over again, they have to survive. Insanity will take over their minds and fear will keep them go and continue the never ending cycle.
... The same thing I do now, running away...''

There was a short moment, when no one spoke a word. Luna was visibly thinking and Pyromancer took his chance to say something. ''Organized hell? Or this hell hole is organized?''

''So wait... the mountains were deep in Hell?'' Asked Luna, finding his description illogical...

Pyromancer forced back his laughter, forgiving her quickly, for interrupting him. The Alicorns choice of words were amusing... but he pretty much found everything amusing... ''Deep in hell...'' He commented quietly and listened to Traveler.

''Yes. The whole place looks like one dimension, but everything is at a different place. So, the water can flow upwards and mountains can emerge from the underground.''

''Screw gravity...'' Pyromancer was thinking about floating in the air... and before he know, he was really floating. He was about to freak out, when he realized what kind of world he was in... ''Dream world... Hmm... Ah, later...'' He came up with a really pleasing idea, about what to do with his new revelation. But he wanted to hear Traveler and finally get to know what happened...

''And the highest place of Hell... is The Throne. That's where the Ruler of the Hell is and controls his domain. He can see everything from there and can inspect the Mortal's life...''

''And who is this ruler?'' Luna asked, seeing the end of the forest ahead. It wasn't a big forest and listening to Traveler just made the time fly faster.

''His name is Reaper... but the previous one was Lucifer.'' Traveler answered, scowling.

Luna noticed this and looked at him concerned. ''What about him?''

They reached the end of the forest and stepped out from the woods... of course, Pyromancer floated out...
They found themselves in a beach, looking over the great ocean. The sand was snow white and the moonlight turned it blue. The water's calm sounds as it hit the shore, helped Traveler to calm down and after sighing, he gave Luna the answer...

''I'll tell you about him later, but I for now... let's just say, he is responsible for ruining Floya' 's world...''

Luna agreed and silence filled the air. Only the sound of waves could be heard in the night...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Twilight groaned, when she woke up again. The uncomfortable position she was in hurt her back and the loud wind in her hair-

''Twilight, before you faint again, please calm down!'' Spike called back, still holding onto the Alicorn's neck.

Twilight was about to sigh to calm down, but then she realized how high she was. Yelping, she held onto her ride's sides, not daring to look down. She flew in a balloon and a carriage too, but they were much safer than a big ponies back. No hoofrails, stable floor and normal seats. Just a flying ponies back, with no things to grab.

''Now Twilight, you don't have to be afraid!'' Started Celestia, slowing down for her student, to feel safer... And of course, ruining Spike's epic moment, to sail through the skies at high speed...

Twilight loosened her grip on Celestia's sides and slowly sat up, back hooves dangling in the air. She felt much safer at this speed, since the wind wasn't against her.

''Twilight.'' Spoke up Celestia. ''Can you tell me, why is Traveler hiding from you and the others? Or why wasn't he with you on the train back to Ponyville?''

Twilight gulped. She knew why and it was her fault. Images of a disappointed Celestia from that vision, back at The Crystal Empire, went through her head and terrified her. In a way, she forgot about the Magic of Friendship, since she didn't forgive Traveler. Also, she didn't appreciate his help and made him feel bad.

All the girls considered Traveler as a friend by now and she just hurt that friend. Even Rainbow forgave him, when she is one stubborn mare! But Twilight? She was thoughtful and can think rationally. But what Traveler did made her lose her control. She forgot to think about the good things about his horrible act. Yes, he was a horrible Spirit for doing that, but he did it for the sake of Equestria!

''Twilight...'' Celestia's kind voice snapped the unicorn out from her thoughts. ''You can tell me anything, my faithful student. I can just feel it... something is bothering you. So please, I have to know what happened.''

Spike listened to the two, waiting for Twilight to finally confess. He knew what happened, but he wanted to make sure, that Twilight will tell her everything.

''I... we...'' The purple unicorn found no words. She was too afraid to disappoint the Princess. It was her nightmare! ''We... got into an... argument...''

''And...?'' Asked back Celestia, patiently waiting for her student, while scanning the trees below.

''I made him... angry... and... well...''

''Agh, for the sake of Equestria! Twilight, if you can't tell her, then I tell her!'' Groaned Spike, having enough of Twilight's stammering.

''N-no!'' Twilight cried out, raising a hoof to stop her assistant. But she lost her balance and slipped down from Celestia's back. Screaming, she wildly attempted to grab something. Celestia quickly dove down, catching her with her magic.

Twilight panted, as she was placed back onto the Alicorn's back. Spike felt bad for nearly sending her to a death fall, but he really enjoyed what the Princess has done to save her. He was surprised to see The Sun Princess, doing such a dive. So quickly, like she foresaw the accident.

He had to learn this! He knew Traveler can do such things, so he made sure to remember to ask him about this...

''My faithful student-'' Celestia started, but Twilight interrupted.

''SORRY SORRY SORRY SORRY!'' Twilight repeated, apologizing repeatedly. ''IT WAS MY FAULT! I'M SORRY PRINCESS-''

''Twilight.'' Twilight silenced herself and hung her head. Celestia spoke up, simply and suggestively. One would say, she just said her name, but both Spike and Twilight knew that the Princess wants them to calm down and stay quiet. ''Please Twilight... tell me...''

She pleaded her. The PRINCESS pleaded her! It wasn't just a question or an order. No, her mentor pleaded her.

Twilight couldn't take that and spoke up...

''Yes, Princess Celestia...''
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''As I said, Floya' still helped the Lost Souls. These Lost Souls are those, who are not satisfied and will never accept their faith. They're clinging to the living life, but they can only move as a soul. You call them ghosts, but they're actually souls, who are lost in existence.''

Traveler continued, while he was sitting next to Luna. The two sat down on the sand, close to the water. It definitely helped him to calm down, since he was amongst friendly faces.

... or... at least one friendly face and a hovering stupid face. Pyromancer just didn't care about his explanation and tried to pick up the two's attention, by making faces... ''Seriously... these names are worse than most ponies' name! 'Lost Souls, that's their name, because they're lost in existence.' Well you don't bucking say! Jeez...'' Were all the pegasus' thoughts about the subject and he gave up trying...

''The Elder's were just started to pay less attention towards her, ''

''And you two towards me...'' Commented Pyromancer and hovered away from their line of sight.

''when she started doing researches for Dark magic. This immediately brought the Elder's back to watch her again. They thought, the Dark powers will get on her mind and take control over her body...''

''Her research extended her knowledge in additional abilities. And soon, she created a new world. It wasn't done yet, but she only needed a place to lead the Lost Souls. And that's where her Dark magic research stepped in...
She placed a barrier around her world, using all of her Dark energy. This barrier prevented Lucifer, to track down the Avatar and locked away the souls to Hell. And since the Lost Souls were no longer had to choose between Hell or The Light, they became Pure Souls...''

Pyromancer snorted, already knowing what will they be...

Luna visibly wanted to ask, but Traveler quickly continued. ''Pure Souls are those ones, who lived their life peacefully, always doing the good thing. There are different kind of Pure Souls...''

''Angels are protectors, healers or simple Angels.
The Guardian Angels are protecting the Light, eliminating any intruder. Also, they are stationed amongst the mortals and in The City of Light. They send reports to the Elders, about what is happening in the mortal life, in the Pure Souls' life and if there is any disturbance at their area. You know, Hell can attack every time...
Holy Angels are recently appeared, since the war between Hell and Light left a lot of injured Guardian. Most of the time, Holy Angels are females, because they are more tender and caring.
And the simply Angels, are those ones, who helps the newcomers in The Light. They have to show the newly arrived souls the whole system, tell them what will they have to do, about the history and of course, show them how they died.''

''The Elders. They control The Light and they get to know the news first hand: About the arrival of a new Pure Soul, the reports from the Guardians and they are the only ones, who knows where are the relics and important prisoners. They are also the ones, who keeps contact with other worlds too. They want to know, which world is corrupted by Hell and which world is friendly.
Diplomacy is strong in The Light, but it wasn't like that before...''

''It wasn't?'' Luna was surprised to hear that. She assumed it was a perfect place, with crystal clear minds and life.

''You remember what Balance said? The Elders were planning something and he didn't like it. Well, he took care of that problem and a new leader stepped to the previous one's place. He was the one, who chose that leader, since he found his mentality clear, his thinking rational and his words wise... just like that new leader's father.'' Explained the Spirit, this time, happy to relive his memory. The last time he did that, he saw his suffering and a bad reminder...

''And the previous one is...''

''He's ded, he's ded, he's sooooo ded~!'' Sang Pyromancer, landing next to (of course) Luna.

''I should have know...'' Mumbled Luna, when Traveler nodded in agreement.

''It turned out, the previous leader used Balance, to get Lucifer's power and take control over Hell. But that would ruin the Balance and if sinner souls gets to The Light, then they will corrupt the Pure Souls and everything will be ruined. It's like a virus...
So, after killing Lucifer and consuming his powers, instead of giving it to the leader, who was Luceta' , he fought against him. Since Luceta' was better with spells, Balance defeated him with hand to hand combat. That fool walked into his trap, when he accepted the challenge. He defeated him and took away HIS powers too!''

''But Lucifer's and Luceta' 's souls remained inside him. The two tried to take over Balance's mind and body, but that stubborn guy didn't let them. And... that was the third time he killed himself. Using The Scythe, he stabbed himself, right through his body. The ruler's and leader's souls vanished from existence and Balance's soul supposed to do the same... and again, the Light saved him...''

''What is this scythe? Why is it so important?'' Luna quickly asked, curious about the deadly weapon's role in that universe.

''I'll tell you later, but now... I have a more important thing to explain...'' Traveler told her, shaking his head, as he thought about that 'dead-bringer' tool.
''He had two choice... rule Hell or lead The Light. He choose none of them and instead, he made The Grim Reaper as the Ruler of the Hell and decided to give all of Luceta' 's power, to the son of the previous leader. But before that, Balance made sure to remake the Purgatory, so those who stuck in the Limbo, can get back to life. Of course, they won't be the same...
He also made sure, to place Elders next to the young leader...
The boy's name was Theilesathe' and his wise father was Thelestial The Great.
Balance trusted in Theilesathe' , since his father was Balance's mentor. Back then, he considered him as a half father and always asked him for advice. Thelestial was more than happy, to tell his thoughtful advices and really cared about everyone's happiness. He wasn't just wise, but funny too! I even had the chance to enjoy a meeting in a small tavern.''

''Really? Wasn't that too dangerous to do, while a war was going on?'' Luna found this brave move foolish, considering the situation back then...

''Ohohhooo, no!'' Laughed out loud Traveler, wiping a tear away from his eye. ''Definitely not. You see, he was in incognito and besides... who was that stupid, to attack The Great Light. He created The Light and everyone knew that: If he dies, then everything will be in chaos. Even Lucifer knew better than attempting a fight with that old man. Instead, the Ruler of the Hell and The Great Light... drank together... hehhee... I'll never forget that moment, it was not an everyday sight.'' Laughed again Traveler, forcing back his tears.

''So... what happened to him?'' Luna asked, curious about why they changed leader. She already had a good guess, but she wasn't sure, if the Avatar actually killed him. Traveler told her, Balance considered him as a half father!

But she remembered that reflection at that lake, when she was in Traveler's memory. The Avatar's family looked sad and Luna was afraid to think about what that beast has done...

Traveler wiped away another tear. The old man was a really kind soul and he really helped Traveler in his past. ''He was too old to hold up The Light. His power weakened by the days and the war was raging outside. If he would have continued any longer, Lucifer could have easily take over The Light and soon, take over the other worlds. Imagine him, running around Ponyville or Canterlot...''

The mere thought of that terrifying being, running around Equestria and making ponies suffer... Luna shivered. ''I don't want to see him again...''

''Again?'' Looked at her Traveler, kinda shocked to hear that.

''In your memory, Balance looked into the water and some kind of black and big creature was laughing at him. By just looking at him made me feel uncertain about my own safety...'' Explained Luna, while Pyromancer thought about comforting her, by pulling her close... but he didn't dare to do something inappropriate.

''Hmm... Balance never told me how he looked like. He only said: Like an EMO knight, who got dropped on his head, when his mother shit him out...
So, due to his enraged description, I don't know if you really saw him, or not.''

Luna hummed in understatement, then realizing that she still doesn't know why he killed Floya', she spoke up. ''You still haven't told me what was that thing with Floya'.''

At her reminder, Traveler's smile disappeared and a hurt expression appeared on his face. He was so wrapped up in his good memories, that he completely forgot about the hard part of this explaining. He would even talk about Balance, or Lucifer, just not about what he did!

He pondered about where he left off and after sighing, he continued. He knew he can do it, it was just talking after all. It can't hurt that much... right...?
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Traveler murdered Kind Sombra and I didn't thank him for helping us. I... I called him a monster and he left angrily. About why he is hiding? Well, Pinkie Pie cloned herself and for some reason, he is afraid of her. Pinkie's attitude is... well... random. And that's why he's not comfortable around her. And what she did probably made him terrified...''

Twilight explained, finally relaxed. Though she winced, when she mentioned what she called Traveler, Celestia kept staring down and continued flying.

''And what has he done, to make you angry Twilight?'' Asked back Celestia, slightly uncertain about what made Twilight THAT angry, to call him a monster.

''Uhm... he murdered Sombra, your majesty. That's why.'' Twilight looked confused, by her mentor's question. She just explained why was she angry and the Princess re-asks her question?

''And he murdered hundreds of Followers in front of all of you. You should have obviously expected him to do the same thing with Sombra.'' Told her Celestia and Twilight was shocked for a moment. Celestia knew what he was going to do and she let him?!

''Princess! He killed him! And you knew all the time what he was going to do?!'' Twilight cried out and Spike looked back at her, surprised by her outburst.

''Indeed, Twilight...'' Celestia answered, calmly and this shocked Twilight even more.

''But it wasn't necessary!''

''I'm sure Traveler had a good reason to do that.''

''And what kind of reasons he had to torture him?!''

Celestia looked back at Twilight, her face actually showing her shock. ''He did what?''

Twilight frowned and continued yelling. ''Sombra was already defeated and he had no more power! But Traveler still killed him and he ENJOYED IT! And when he came back to the Crystal Empire, his clothes were red from blood! I even saw some on his mouth! HIS MOUTH! Then at the throne room, he showed us Sombra's pelt and hold it out like it was some sort of toy! A PONY'S PELT!''

While Twilight took some deep breath, calming herself down, Celestia turned her head back towards the forest. Considering her words and sighing once, she spoke up again, her voice calmed and caring.
''Twilight, you must understand him. He is not a pony and I don't have any control over him. And I know for a fact, that he had to finish Sombra. I knew he would return again and that's why I sent Traveler there too.''

''But I agree with you... he shouldn't had to make him suffer. But he is a Spirit and it must be something about what he is... I have no knowledge about Spirits, but my sister has. I just hope she actually wants to get to know him better, or I can't ask anything from her. For some reason, she enjoys his company and really interested in his tales...''

''So Twilight... for the first time... I can't decide if he did the right or the bad thing. Yes, he finished him, but Equestria will be safe, thanks to him! He may made use of Sombra and it is unforgivable, but what if it's part of being a Spirit? Again, I know nothing about his culture, since Discord was the only Spirit we knew... and he wasn't the kindest one...
And now... here's Traveler. His intention is right, but how he wants to fulfill his tasks are bad. I know this and he knows that too. But sometimes, we have to do something that hurts the other one, so we can help to do the right thing for somepony else...''

''And sometimes... this 'right' thing is only right for us... but it's not right for others. This never ending cycle is life Twilight and most ponies can't see it...''

Spike nodded in agreement, fully understanding the Sun Princess. But Twilight... she was deep in thoughts...
A new Celestia revealed herself and it was nothing like the purple unicorn saw before. She saw Celestia angry, calmed, thoughtful, amused, unamused, panicked and serious. It was a wise Celestia, who thought rationally.

Twilight found her words true and acceptable. She was glad to hear her mentor, agreeing with her and giving her advice. The student's head finally cleared out, since she couldn't place Traveler anywhere. But thanks to her majesty, Twilight finally found where to place him in her mind and heart...

''Thank you Princess... I understand now...'' Twilight nodded and smiled up at the sky.

It was around the middle of the afternoon. A few clouds were only visible and the wind was bearable for the student. She let the cool breeze relax her muscles and breathed in the fresh air, like she was locked inside a basement. In a way, she was locked inside, but only in her mind.

Finally... a great trouble was lifted down from her shoulders...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''After the Lost Souls became Pure Souls, she did something unacceptable... at least, by the Laws of Life. This law is about not bringing the death back to life. If a mortal dies, then life is not possible for them. Of course, there are special occasions... This happened to Balance actually. The Light brought him back to life, because he was the Avatar and The Light needed help. The Great Mother, wife of Thelestial and probably the first Pure Soul, descended down to Hell's entrance and pulled Balance back from his death. From that moment, his whole life changed and he became the Avatar...''

''This was that special occasion, when The Light broke the rules. And Floya' just brought each and every Pure Soul back to mortals and let them live again. This, of course, required all of her Light powers... that's when I came into the whole plan...''

''While she had no power to do anything, she had to get back to her castle and rest. While she had no idea about me, the Elders let me through to her world. My objective was to get more information about her world, her powers, knowledge and actually... about her...''

''I acted and pretended to be friendly. Her caring personality quickly made me like her, but I always reminded myself about my true mission. I earned her thrust and she soon... fell into me. I used her and lied to her...''

''I waited for the right time, for the sign from outside her world. And while I did that, I let Floya' get closer to me. There was always that screaming in my head, that I shouldn't be doing this and just warn her about the Elders' plan. I saw the right behind her research, but it was too risky. Her dark magic was visibly out of control and the high energy sometimes made HER lose control...''

''And there was the Laws of Life too. She broke the rules and it was a really serious thing. Also, she swore to The Light, that she would never break any rules... but... she broke the most serious one...
So, these mistakes from hers, made me not return the feelings she shared...''

''I left that world one day and Luceta' 's Angels chased me. Hundreds of them tried and I killed most of them. But I was outnumbered and Captain Martin questioned my actions. I wasn't reporting to them and they thought I was against them. I wasn't on Floya' 's side, neither The Light's side. They just asked me to do it and promised me reward. Hehhe... Like I needed their reward after that...''

''They told me to find her cross and bring it out from her world... I did it... and her protection spell broke...
Lucifer immediately sensed the new Avatar and sent his Demons and Corruption to Floya' 's world. Since she had no other protection, only a weak security in the cities, the Shadows consumed her world. Demons and Shadows killed everything and every soul.''

''And I just watched... I watched as Hell teared in half that planet, then take every Light source from it's universe...
Then... when she was in front of me... I only saw a bad Avatar. A soul, who is not good anymore and Balance was the good one in my eyes...''

''... so... I just...''

Luna placed a comforting hoof on his shoulder, while he wiped away some tears. ''That's enough, I know what happened...''

Traveler sniffed back his tears, staying in silence for a while. Then he frowned and blinked away his remaining tears. ''I don't know what happened to me... I was never good with females.''

''And this is the part where I'm not interested anymore.'' Spoke up Pyromancer, stretching out. ''Bro... just drink something!'' The pegasus turned to Luna and gave her a serious expression... not his 'serious' expression one, no. It was a normal kind of seriousness, which surprised both Traveler and... Luna looked surprised because of Traveler was surprised...
''Don't let his cheap tricks get to you. He can get laid easily and so this is his plan with you too right now...''

The pegasus took off, flying alongside the shore. Below him, his reflection showed his smirk. He was good for now... He got the good first impression and warned the Princess. If he screw this up from now, he will go back to the Crystal Empire, spending his life alone. He found the mare of his life and he's on the right track... he CAN'T screw this up...

''THY NIGHT ANGEL SHALL BE MINE!'' He shouted and disappeared behind the sand dunes.

Luna raised an eyebrow and shook her head. ''These ponies sometimes...'' She muttered and turned back to Traveler, who was looking irritated. His cheeks wet from tears and he visible looked troubled...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''So... let's try this...''

Pyromancer was far away from Traveler and Luna... enough distance between them, so they won't hear him there. He positioned himself before the water and took a few deep breaths. Then, he spoke up...

''Listen to me dream world! Give me a Princess now, or I end you!'' His serious face ( >:| <---- This... ) returned. He waited for a moment, then...

... nothing...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''You see... Spirits are difficult and confusing. Most of the time, the female only wants to make sexual contact with the male and then they just leave each other. Like nothing happened!''

''It is pretty rare, when two Spirit finds love. And it is a long process too! So... Floya' was more than different... and that's what I liked about her...''

''Well, you did say she was kind of like Balance... and she was the Avatar too, so it is understandable why she was different.'' Luna told to Traveler, trying to help him sort out his feelings.

She wasn't the best pony to turn about love questions. But she DOES have a fair knowledge about this subject! And Traveler was her friend, so the least she could do is help as much as she could...

Suddenly, due to the Dream World's unique possibilities, Traveler's gear gave out several clicks. Before he spoke up, his cape slid down from him and his gauntlets loosened. ''She was...''

Traveler stood up and nearly all of his clothing slid down from him. He took two big steps, letting his boots come down from his feet, his long socks remaining in the boots. His gauntlets dropped to the sand, along with his coat and scarf. He pulled down his long-sleeved shirt and his armor fell down too. His trousers loosened and he took another two, big steps. Under his trousers were his shorts, Luna was thankful for that. He stepped out from his trousers and pulled down his shirt.

This was the first time, when Luna saw him exposed. Still, she wasn't surprised by his injuries. Though, she wasn't concerned about his physical health right now... ''SHE WAS MY FIRST LOVE AND I KILLED HER!'' Traveler shouted and Luna stood up, just as he started to walk deeper into the water.

''Traveler!'' She shouted after him, flying next to him to catch up.

''I just realized what I have done and it is worse than before!'' He continued shouting, walking deeper and deeper into the water. His steps sent the water all around him, as he stomped down onto the water's surface. ''I did not just kill an innocent soul! I did not just kill a friend! I KILLED MY FIRST LOVE!''

The water reached his waist and he started using his arms, to go through the water faster. This also sent even more water around him and Luna had to fly higher, so she won't get wet. She tried to calm the Spirit down, but it was useless...
''Traveler, calm down!''

''AND THANKS TO MY SOCIAL AWKWARDNESS, I'LL NEVER BE ABLE TO LOVE ANYONE ELSE! FLOYA' WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO LOVED ME, BUT I WAS FUCKING BLIND TO SEE IT!''

''It's not your fault!'' Luna descended lower, seeing that Traveler had to start swimming and stopped splashing the water.

''And what I can do after that?! DESTROY HER WORLD! HOW LOWER CAN I GET?!''

''It was understandable, everypony gets angry from time to time!''

''Angry?! ANGRY?! That was a breaking point and I was FURIOUS! I'M REALLY GLAD THAT CAPTAIN AND LEADER DIED! Hope they burn in Hell!''

''Everything turned out well in the end, Traveler! Do not forget, you did it for a better future!''

Traveler stopped swimming and turned to Luna. ''I DON'T GIVE A SINGLE FUCK ABOUT A BETTER FUTURE! I should have been selfish, so me and F-Floya' could have gotten a-away and l-live our lives t-together-r and... a...'' Tears started to slide down from his eyes, slowly making Traveler's voice to crack. The new revelation and memory reliving not so long ago, overwhelmed the Spirit.

He hung his head and sniffed several times, failing to get himself back together. At that moment, he wanted nothing more, just letting his stress out...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Pyromancer waited and waited... and waited...

His serious face never changed, his body remained unmoved and his eyes were fixed on the sky. If he was patient, then the Dream World would probably grant his wish.

He felt the rhythmical shaking next to him and he turned to his right. He saw nopony there, but when he heard a sound from a bit lower...

A blue frog was staring at him and the worst thing was... it was DEFINITELY a female... a small crown on her head.

Pyromancer turned back to the night sky. ''Hehheee, yeah... Would you kindly buck yourself!'' He shouted out, pissed, because the whole world trolled him...

And the frog just stared at him lovingly...

Author's Note

Thelestial = Say 'Celestial' but with a 'T' letter at the beginning!
Theilesathe' = Te-i-le-sáté
Luceta' = Lu-ke-tá

Again, sorry for this whole thing with Hell and Light. I don't mean to humiliate or do any kind of unforgivable things with religions. If you don't like this universe, because of the religion thing, then my only defense is: ''It's just a fiction. I'm not spreading this point of view around, declaring it to be the truth!''
Another sorry for mentioning my other characters. They will be mentioned again and I will mention Traveler in the sequel of 'Dhuradhan in Equestria: Book Two'. I think that makes up for good actually...

You get to know a lot of things about this universe of mine. If you want to write a story, which takes place in this universe, then let me know in the comments and I make a HUGE description about it. Then you can make your story, while already having a universe to start the whole tale! So leave just a comment about it and if I get enough response, I'll make it!
And also, I would read them happily too! =D

This is the first part of the 'Dream World' chapters and there will be more. As I said, explanation is the main thing in these, while the big plot twist blooms out from this whole happening. After that twist, I'll probably leave behind the things about the universe, The Avatar etc. and continue the story, without you knowing nothing what's happening!

I said I will cut this first chapter to two pieces, but I just couldn't find a good place to cut it. So, here's an 8K words chapter.

I hope this chapter was acceptable and made the day for some of you!
Have a good night!

PS.: HAPPY BIRTHDAY PYROMANCER!

Dream World : Part Two - The Traveler, The Beast and the Past (Part One)

''Pinkie Pie...'' Groaned Rainbow Dash, separating herself from the still upset farm mare.

''Hy there! Welcome to Pinkie pie's reception!'' The pink (and evil) pony greeted her friend, acting the innocent. ''What can I do for you?''

''Why did you have to bring this up?'' Asked the tired pegasus, dragging herself. She got tired of the whole argument and her ears were ringing from Applejack's shouting.

''You mean this?'' Pinkie presented a small box, which contained some cupcakes. ''I though we can have some, since we DID missed breakfast and lunch... at least I missed it. My minions needed the energy and they consume a lot of sweets. At least it's nature friendly and they don't go around and leave harmful chemicals...'' She explained, not getting what her friend actually meant by 'bringing it up'. But they were walking up on a mountain! How was she supposed to know what Rainbow actually meant?

''Not... that...'' Groaned the pegasus again, allowing herself a facehoof. ''I mean... why did you have to talk about Sprint?''

''Oh, you mean that!'' Pinkie put the box inside her mane and pulled out a small, portable board and glasses. ''Let them lesson began!'' She declared, talking strangely.

Under seconds, a picture about a horse and two ponies were on the board. Pinkie started explaining. ''You see, if I wouldn't mention Sprint before, then the whole plot twist would be too...'' She quickly draw down the plot twist... Rainbow blushed at the picture. ''... unpredictable. So you two would start actually FIGHTING over Sprint and he would leave you two FOREVER!''

Rainbow was about to question her explanation, but Teacher Pinkie Pie quickly continued. ''ALSO, the plot twist...'' She pointed at the disturbing picture again. ''... would be too unpredictable for the readers too! You see, the author...'' Then Pinkie Pie started drawing a humanoid. The humanoid had really slim body, a really big head and a goat beard. She didn't draw any cloths for the humanoid, so its body was exposed... Pinkie decided to draw a really small... ahem... something between its legs. ''There, here's the author... hmm... nah, he's not like that...''

Pinkie deleted the 'something' from between the legs...

''There, perfect description! He looks exactly like this! Now, let's start the other part of my explanation, since that dumb man here...'' She pointed at her drawing... again, making sure that Rainbow will remember how that man looked like... ''... he decided to write a lot of chapters, which only has explanations! So why can't I do the same thing?!''

She started grinning, when a good idea popped into her head. She draw a cigarette into the figure's mouth and labeled it as: ''Cancer stick''
She also created a bubble above her drawing and wrote something inside it: ''Look, I'm a pathetic teenager, who thinks his writing is good and has a big ego, for being better at english than most of his generation in Hungary! Like my story, or I will start crying, getting depressed and commit suicide!''

I hate you Pinkie...

''By the way...'' Pinkie slowly turned towards... YOU. ''Get ready for the OP Balance and all that jizz! This explanation part will be the author's favorite part, but you will get bored pretty soon. Bye!''

After Pinkie Pie said these mean things and ABSOLUTELY lying about everything, she started her own explanation...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Princess Luna watched, as Traveler floated on the water surface. His eyes were closed and he spread around his limbs, letting the water to keep him afloat. His long hair went to every direction, as it got wet too.

It looked like the water itself let him be, since the ocean stopped sending the waves and left the troubled Spirit to float in one place. Even if the waves were sooting, Traveler prefered the stillness right now. The water keeping him afloat did wonders with his physical state... or was that his real, unconscious body in the 'real world'? Whichever it was, it felt great for him...

The sound of the Princesses' wings, flapping in the air around him, stopped too and Luna descended down onto the water. Due to the Dream Wolrd's unique possibilities, she STOOD on the water, patiently waiting for Traveler, to let it all out.

Not long ago, he was cursing and shouting, while his tears flowed freely from his eyes. The new revelation about what he did was worse than before. He killed his first and only love! He was able to get used to the pain and the feeling of quilt, since he just chose the wrong thing. He was able to deal with that.

But as he realized, who he actually killed... he was done. When he saw a Follower, he was angry and annoyed... but from now... every Follower will be a suffering to kill. He knew that those Followers are those, who died at Floya' 's world. But from now on, he won't look at them as monsters, who wants to kill him for entertainment... no. He will look at them as a punishment and souls, who only wants to take their revenge...

Traveler opened his eyes, only to half way. He stared at the moon above him, then with a calmed and slow sight, looked at Luna. The Princess realized his movement and smiled at him. ''Are you well?''

Traveler slowly blinked and moved his body around, fully turning towards her. ''Yes... I'm well now... I needed this...'' His whole movement was slow and not just because of the water. It looked like he just woke up from sleep and a sweet dream remained in his mind.

''Good...'' Luna nodded and looked like she wanted to say something. A small amount of air left her mouth, but no words came out.

Still wearing the same entranced expression, Traveler noticed her failed attempt to say something and he spoke up instead of her. ''You still have questions?'' It came out like a statement.

Luna was taken aback for a moment, but regained her posture. ''Yes, but it can wait. I see you had a good rest and I would never forgive myself, if I ruin your mood again.'' She told him honestly, smiling at him.

Traveler couldn't help, but smile too. ''Ask away, but... you know... not about her...''

Luna stared at him for a second, then nodded, thankful for him. ''I appreciate that.'' She started thinking about what to ask first. Then she decided to ask the same thing like before, since it worked and he was able to tell her everything.
''Tell me... why were you helping The Avatar?''

Traveler chuckled. ''I expected this question.'' Sighing, he leaned back in the water and letting his body to just stay afloat again. He raised his finger at the sky, where the stars weren't covering the night. ''So, instead of telling you, let me show you...''
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''... my *censored* ... what the buck did I just say and why?'' Pyromancer looked confused. He was pretty sure he just finished somepony's sentence, but he couldn't see anypony else! Shrugging once, he continued glaring at the sky...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Luna forced back to bounce in place, like a filly. She simply LOVED watching his memories. She could see what kind of world Traveler was in and his fighting moves were great entertainment for her. She liked these, because she missed the adventures.
When she was young, Celestia always had to find her, because little Luna always found a way to get into trouble. But in the end, it worth her efforts. Seeing her little sister happy and determined was really amazing and amusing...

Traveler also noticed her slight twitch and chuckled. ''I see you're exited...''

The Night Princess blushed and looked up at the sky. Traveler closed his eyes and recalled his memories. Soon, the starless area on the sky, started to glow in red and purple, surprising Luna. She thought he had only purple color for his energy. She didn't think about it for too long and putting this topic aside, she continued watching.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Hm?!'' Pyromancer noticed some glowing from his left and looked up at the sky. He saw Traveler, doing his business. ''Buck yes, a TV!''

He started flying around in circles and quickly created a small sand tornado. He had no idea how he was going to make it, but he cared less about logic anyways...

After the cloud of sand disappeared from around him, he was met by a sand couch. It was- ''Sandy!'' ... yes... sandy...

Hopping onto the couch, he found it comfortable enough and leaned back. Letting his head fall backwards, he watched his 'movie' and the frog hopped up next to him. The pegasus did not care about the blue animal and he wasn't afraid to show it. So putting his hooves behind his head and completely ignoring the poor frog, he watched...

Sentences, words, letters, texts and dialogues, that are happening in the memory will be underlined! Everything else, which are not in the memory, will be normal. Even without telling you this, you will be able to figure out what is happening.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Traveler walked down the streets of the city he was in. He received strange stares from others, as he watched every single thing in wonder. His cloths already made him stick out from the crowd, but as he looked at the cars, the buildings and just simply everything, the people around him found him strange.

''What is this place?'' Asked Luna, watching in awe, as the new world she was seeing brought up more questions inside her head.

''This is Earth, the planet of humans. This is where the war between Light and Hell broke out, while the people had no idea about it.'' Answered Traveler, his eyes still closed.

''Are they humanoids? Or the term 'human' is something else?'' Frowned Luna, finding no difference between the humans and humanoids.

''They ARE different!'' Pointed out Traveler. ''You see, they have the same appearance like the humanoids, but humanoids have a few different appendages and abilities. While a human is a mortal and can't use any kind of magic, nor they know about the existence of magic, humanoids are better than them. Humanoids can have wings, tails and sharper teeth and of course, special abilities. I'm a humanoid too, since I have the homo-sapiens-sapiens skeletal structure, but I'm not a mortal.
A human has the homo-sapiens-sapiens skeletal structure, but wields no magic. They can't grow wings, tails and their teeth can be only stronger, but not sharper. They're omnivorous, but they don't eat each other, because their law against cannibalism doesn't let them... and they don't find human meet tasty...''

''Then why are they looking at you like that? Can they sense magical energy? Or you have something more than a human?''

''No, none of that.'' Chuckled Traveler. ''Take a look at their clothes and mine! See the difference?''

Focusing, Luna took a good look at the citizens around him. Fashion was definitely different! ''Oh, I see!'' Cried out Luna and continued watching the somewhat awkward moment from the memory.

A hooded man could be spotted on the top of the roofs, but the people below him couldn't spot him... just like Traveler. But the Spirit sensed his follower and turned to his right, walking into a dark alley. The man watched Traveler from the roofs, but every time the Spirit turned back or looked up, he couldn't spot his stalker.

''Guess who is he.'' Spoke up Traveler, making Luna to pay closer attention to the happenings. But she already had a good guess about who that man was.

Traveler was about to step out from the alley, but looked behind him one last time. Luna could see the hooded man in the alley, as he stepped close to the wall and disappeared from view. Traveler resumed walking away and the hooded man stepped away from the wall, movement slow and silent.

''How did he...?'' Luna blurted out, making Traveler chuckle.

''Master assassin and yes, he fooled me with this trick.'' Traveler admitted, chuckling again.

''It's easy to that, when he has Dark energy.'' Rolled her eyes Luna.

''Actually, he used the light from outside the alley and his clothes did the remaining job, to hide him in the shadows. Even if he could have became less visible in the shadows, he saved his powers... and I would have sensed it, so I was merely blind in this situation.'' Grinned Traveler, while explaining.

Traveler was walking amongst the crowd again and the hooded man stepped out from the alley. He remained close, but still far away from the Spirit, making his work harder to sense him properly. When Traveler turned around, the hooded man was lighting up a cigarette, hood covering his eyes and half of his face. The Spirit found nothing to be afraid of and continued walking, but stayed on alert.

The hooded man caught up with Traveler, but did not attack him. Traveler paid no attention to him and tried to spot his possible attacker. The man next to him pulled out some small device and raised to his ears.

''What is he doing?'' Luna asked him, never seeing such a thing before.

''That device allows the humans to talk to someone, who can be at the other side of the planet. Their technology is really high, but they used it in the wrong way...'' The Spirit answered, frowning a bit.

''Why is that?'' Luna shifted around, feeling uncomfortable in her standing position.

''You will see...'' At his reply, Luna descended down to her belly, tucking her legs under herself.

''Pozíció... Battyhány út. Zoli Csemege mellett haladunk el.''
[Position... Battyhány road. We're passing by the Zoli Deli.] Said the man and Traveler looked at him, not understanding a single word. And he thought the man was insane, since the man was talking to himself...
''Mérd be és tartsd rajta a szemed! Mellettem van és kitűnik a tömegből.''
[Locate him and keep an eye on him! He's right next to me and he sticks out from the crowd.'' Again, he spoke to himself, but Traveler payed no attention. He knew his follower was close, but couldn't see him...

A pair of human, wearing uniforms with the letters of 'Police' , approached Traveler from the front. The man in hood stopped in his track and turned to his right, stepping behind a street lamp.
''Jönnek a jardok, vedd át!''
[The yards are coming, take it from me!] Was the only thing Traveler heard from the man, before the two human in uniform approached him.

''Személyit legyen szíves!''
[Your ID, please!] Said one of them and Traveler raised an eyebrow. The other one repeated his words and Traveler was about to try and tell them somehow, that he can't understand anything. The one on his right reached for a black rod and the one on the left presented a pair of handcuffs. That's when another hooded, man ran past the 'guards' and took away the handcuffs and the black rod, which was visibly a weapon in Traveler's eyes.
''Hé!'' [Hey!]
''Utána, ő az igazi!'' [After him, he's the real one!]

The two in uniform ran after the hooded man and Traveler looked absolutely confused. And he did not notice the hooded man from before, walking past him and far away from him. Then he turned into another alley, where Traveler suddenly sensed the presence of another strong being. The Spirit walked to that alley and only found a poor human, lying next to the trash cans. A dirty blanket covering his head and upper body, hiding his face.

Traveler was sure, he sensed his follower from before, but that sign just disappeared. ''Food...'' Said dryly the poor human, shaking all the time. But Traveler had no food and couldn't do anything for the hobo.

''I'm sorry, but I have nothing.'' Told the to the hobo Traveler and the poor man let his arms fall down.
The Spirit left the poor man and walked deeper into the alley. Behind him, the hobo stood up and let the dirty blanket fall to the ground. This, of course, revealed who he was...

''WHAT!'' Cried out Luna, making Traveler to laugh. ''Okay, that's just not fair!'' Frowning, she gritted her teeth.

''In a fight, everything is allowed. He uses his environment and waits for the right time to strike... something that I really want to learn from him. He can make others believe a lot of things...'' Grinned Traveler, finding his memory amusing.

''And what do you mean by that? Don't tell me he can control your mind!'' Luna snapped, finding the man's act absolutely unfair.

''No... he has plans.'' Said Traveler. ''Even if he gets out of control, he has plans for the future. I reach my Breaking Point, I don't have any plans. He gets out of control, he somehow solves something. Like, when he got killed by a girl, but it was actually him, who stabbed himself! When everyone else believed he was dead, he stroke! I wouldn't be surprised, if he planned forward his future and whole life!''

''Hm... reminds me of a certain unicorn, who goes crazy if something is not right...'' Giggled the Princess and thankfully, she didn't see Traveler's frown at the mentioning of Twilight Sparkle.

Approaching Traveler, quietly and somewhat slowly, the man positioned behind Traveler. The man let his energy out, but only for a short moment, to make Traveler turn around. The Spirit sensed the presence of his follower and turned around.
Just as he turned around, he received two fists. One hit the base of his torso, sending wrong messages up to the brain. The other one damaged his chest, which made his breathing stuck for a second. The sudden hit on a weak spot and the short moment of lacking oxygen, created a small panic in Traveler's brain. It was a natural reaction from the body...

Spinning around onece, the man kicked Traveler on the right side of his head, with the heels of his boots. The force sent Traveler into the wall from his left and snapped him out of his shock. He pushed himself away, just in time, before the man boots can crash his skull.

Traveler tried to deliver a strong punch to the man's ribcage, but his opponent parried it with his left elbow. Though, Traveler's quick recovery surprised the man...
The position was a good opportunity for the man, to hit the left side of Traveler's head, by using the back of his right hand.
He was about to backhand Traveler from the right, when the Spirit leaned away. The man's hand hit the wall and Traveler quickly pulled out a knife and wanted to stab the attacker's wrist into the wall. It missed his wrist, but caught the cloths on his sleeves.

While his right arm was attached to the walls, the Spirit span around once and wanted to slam his attacker into the wall, by his left leg. But the hooded man wasn't about to let Traveler win, even if his right arm was useless now. Doing a half side-flip, the man immediately changed position, by doing his flip over the knife. His right wrists were still attached to the wall, but now from his left and his right arm went across in front of him.

He grabbed the knife with his left hand and pulled it out. Using the momentum from pulling out the knife, he swiped at Traveler, who rolled forward, away from the man and avoiding from the swipe. The man's hands moved to his right and again, using the momentum, he tried to cut Traveler. The knife in his left hand missed, as Traveler jumped back. But there was the right hand of the man's and he tried to grab Traveler with the climbing blades.

''Yes, it's him...'' Mumbled Luna, watching the fight.

''Yes, he's Balance. Funny story...'' Traveler said, shaking his head.

After the failed attempt of grabbing Traveler, Balance leaned to his left and picked up a trash can's lid. He tried to hit Traveler's head, but the Spirit stepped to his right, letting the lid to fly away next to his head.
There was a short moment, when both of them did nothing, but getting ready for the next round. Balance didn't hesitate to keep both of them moving, when he threw Traveler's knife back at his owner.

Luna found it strange, when she saw the knife just flipping around in the air. ''He didn't even sent the sharp side of the knife at Traveler.'' She thought.

The knife wasn't pointing at Traveler, as it slowly reached him. But it did distracted him and the Spirit followed it with his eyes, waiting for the moment to block it. But it was a trap and Balance used this opportunity to jump up and double kick him in the chest. The kick sent the Spirit through the window of an abandoned house and the sound of window breaking definitely alerted the citizens.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Hey, yo! Yes, yo! Yo are a sneaky cheater!'' Shouted Pyromancer, eating popcorn. Apparently, the blue frog had some, so both of them eat popcorn... because that's so normal.

Eating popcorn, on a sand couch, next to a blue frog Princess and watching a movie in the sky...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''That is just not fair!'' Luna whined, finding Balance's fighting style really dirty... and not just because of that trash can's lid or the dust they made...

''As I said... everything is allowed!'' Told her Traveler, smiling at the memory, even if it wasn't that pleasant. ''I learned that from him and I keep forgetting to use this tactic.''

''I don't like this tactic...'' Commented Luna, shaking her head. She knew that everything is allowed in a death fight, but she was used to being respectful towards her opponents. No matter how much she hates the enemy, fighting dirty is not respectful. And she rather be respectful and fail, than being low, disrespectful opponent and fight in dishonor.

''But solves many problems...'' Added Traveler and the two continued watching the fight.

Balance jumped on top of the window frame and threw the knife at Traveler. The Spirit caught it and threw it back at the crouching assassin. Balance jumped to the nearest table and Traveler kicked it. Balance ran in one place for a few seconds, as the surface below moved out from under him. When he reached the end of the table, Traveler wanted to send a strong punch to his knee.

Balance jumped and used all four limbs, to send the offending Spirit back. The kicks hit the under side of Traveler's chest and the fists damaged his eyes. He landed on the ground and Traveler was right in front of him, kicking upwards, to break the jaw. But Balance had enough time to react and parried the kick. Even if the force was enough to send his arms to his side, Balance used his momentum from this. He held his right arm close to himself and bashed against the Spirit's left shoulder.

''Are the Spirits that flexible?'' Asked Luna, finding the quadro hit from Balance impossible.

''Not all of them. Some of them can't even reach their knees and some of them can twist themselves in every direction.'' Traveler answered, shaking his head at bad encounters from the past. Flexible women is hot, but too dangerous for an enemy...

Traveler backed into a narrow corridor, shelves and wardrobes from both sides. Balance ran up to him and wanted to punch Traveler, but the Spirit pulled open a shelf and it blocked Balance's hit. The offending hand went through the wooden fabric and stuck in it. Traveler used this opportunity, to kick Balance on his knees. He collapsed and quickly pulled the whole shelf out from its place, blocking Traveler's kick to the face.

Balance got the blood eyes and sent the shelf at Traveler. The Spirit broke it to pieces, as he used his fist to break it. From behind the broken shelf's dust, came Balance, doing a side-flip again. His legs missed Traveler, but he reached down to pull another shelf out from it's place. Spinning back to face Traveler, he threw the shelf at him in anger.

Traveler pushed the incoming shelf away and grabbed Balance's fist, next to his head as the hit missed him. Before the Spirit could do anything, Balance reached for the handle of a shelf and pulled it out. The wood slammed against Traveler's head and since Balance's hand was next to his opponent's head, he showed it towards the shelf, dealing more damage.

Balance pulled Traveler close to himself and delivered a painful punch to his stomach, knocking the wind out from him. Quickly, Traveler grabbed Balance's head from the right and slammed it into the shelves. The hooded figure got stunned for a second and Traveler broke free from his grasp. The Spirit was about to kick out his knee, but Balance delivered an uppercut to his nose. The bone in Traveler's nose backed up into his skull and he felt the pain in his brain.

Traveler's vision got worse and Balance slipped past him, between the shelves and the Spirit's body. With a harsh pull and grunt, Balance flipped the big wardrobe at Traveler. It was only useful for a moment, as Traveler reacted quickly and pushed the wardrobe at Balance. The man rolled backwards, avoiding from the crushing weight of the furniture.

The Spirit regained himself from the blow to his nose and charged at Balance, stomping down on the wooden furniture. He broke another shelf, when Balance dodged his powerful attack, by stepping under Traveler, between the Spirit's legs. As the flexible man stood back up, he pulled Traveler's legs out from under him. The Spirit fell onto his face and rolled onto his back, looking at the assassin. Balance slid out his hidden blade on his right wrist and pounced at Traveler. The strong being on the floor reacted quickly and kicked Balance back in the air, hitting him on the nose. The assassin failed his assassination and he felt the bone up in his skull too, making his vision blurry too.

Traveler was above Balance, but he kicked out his knees. The Spirit fell right into Balance's awaiting legs and he was trapped. The flexible man hooked his legs around Traveler's upper body and behind his neck, pulling him closer, by using his free hands. The tight position started to choke Traveler and he hardly pulled himself up, Balance still locking himself to his torso. Balance knew what Traveler was about to do and quickly unfolded his legs and re-hooked them around his waist, clinging on Traveler like a monkey.

Traveler realized what position he was in and concentrated his energy. Balance held himself up by pure back muscles and used his fists to repeatedly punch Traveler's face, while grunting like a beast. A small burst of blue energy sent Balance back out from the corridor and out from the window, tearing down parts from the window frame, as he slammed against it slightly. Traveler stumbled his way out of the mess he was in, breaking the broken furniture to smithereens.

''You two made quiet the mess...'' Commented Luna, shaking her head, an amused grin formed on her lips.

''Hehhee, we surely did. Imagine the owners of that flat!'' Laughed Traveler and Luna joined too.

Balance threw himself back at the window frame, panting and holding his head. Traveler was still fighting his way through the debris, when the assassin pulled up his sleeves, revealing the deadly machines on his wrists. After a click and pulling up two, short stick, Balance let the blessing spray out from his weapons. Thankfully, his head was still hanging and he was just letting out his anger, as he blindly tried to shoot at everything. At first, Traveler was surprised, then shocked, then quickly started dodging the flying bullets. The side guns on those machines had twenty bullets and one bullet came out from the holes in every single second, making escape impossible.

But Traveler thought quickly and opened the door of that wardrobe, which was on the floor. He hid inside it, before one of the bullets gets him. The assassin ran out of bullets for that magazine and Balance jumped onto the window frame, just to get shot by a blue energy beam, sent by Traveler. He slammed against the wall outside, breaking down the plaster from the building.

''Remind me to ask you about these small cannons! I know you have one too and I'm highly intrigued about how they work.'' Said Luna, thoughtfully.

Traveler, instead of saying no, he decided to explain her later, why is it a bad idea. ''I'll tell you later...''

Traveler grabbed Balance by his collar and pulled down his mask. The assassin's eyes snapped open, piercing glare met by a surprised Traveler's face. Both Luna and Traveler was shocked, by what Balance did next.

''EWWWWW!'' Looked away Luna. ''That is just really disgusting!''

''As I said... beast...'' Chuckled Traveler, slightly shivering as he recalled the feeling from that moment.

Balance was biting Traveler's hand, painting their clothes to crimson. Traveler could feel that his teeth nearly went through his hand and only a few centimeters remained intact. The Spirit released his collar and Balance stopped biting, licking all over his mouth. Traveler attached his claws and they started to burn in blue flames, ready to start the next round.

But there wasn't a next round, as Balance straightened up to his full height, frowning sightly and pulling down his hood. He was looking at Traveler, deep in thoughts, while savoring the blood in his mouth. Traveler got angry at that, finding his sadistic gesture taunting and he got into fighting position.

''The Traveling Horseman...'' Started Balance, closing his eyes. ''Blood type unknown, lukewarm temperature...'' He licked his lips one last time, humming thoughtfully. ''... plastic kind... your diet must be shit...''

That was all Traveler needed, getting upset about his opponent's words. With a swift motion, Traveler was right in front of Balance, striking at his face with the right claw. Balance let the attack go through his hands, blocking the strike. Traveler stared in shock, when the wound started glowing in light blue, already healing the damaged hand.

Balance's right arm morphed into his scythe's blade, the skull from his weapon revealing itself on his shoulder blade. Traveler's eyes widened, recognizing the deadly weapon and its purpose. ''You...'' He started and Balance pushed him away, a hole in his left hand. While Traveler looked at him in shock, Balance growled from the pain in his hand, but stopped, when the wound healed itself.

He sighed in relief, feeling the aching in his hand die out. ''You saw it right...'' Balance started, opening his eyes to look at the dumbfounded Spirit. ''... the Grim Reaper's scythe.'' He finished, turning the blade back to his arms and straightening up his back, hearing several pops under the process.

''The Avatar.'' Said out loud Traveler, speaking his mind.

''Finally you realize!'' Snapped Balance, voice louder than usual.

''But... you died!'' Blurted out the Spirit, still finding hard to believe in his eyes.

Balance chuckled at that. ''I just merely took a break from saving this fucking world.''

After a minute of silence, Balance spoke up again. Traveler put away his claws and let the new revelation sink in. ''I have a plan and I'm sure you'll like it.''

''How can you be alive?!'' Demanded Traveler, stepping back, when the newly revealed Avatar started walking closer to him.

''I wasn't dead. Everything went by as I planned it, to get enough time to prepare.'' Told him Balance, calmly.

''And what were you preparing for?''

''Revenge...''

And so, the two supernatural being, discussed their plan on finding The Gatekeeper. One of the source of the problem was that soul, who took part in making Lucifer's army bigger. They needed to eliminate that soul, to prevent Hell's army, to increase its numbers.

''Were you really that surprised?'' Asked Luna, rising and eyebrow.

''He disappeared for a long time and I was the first one, to get to know about his return.'' Said Traveler, eyes still closed. ''It was kinda a honor, to meet with the Avatar and help him... but I'm still not sure if I should feel happy for helping him. Yes, the Light and Hell works perfect now, but how I had to help him was disturbing and I still feel guilty for the things I had to do...''

Luna just looked back at the memory, deciding to not question him, since she will find it out anyways. The Princess watched, as Balance pulled Traveler close to himself and grabbed his hand. Traveler tried to break away, but the hooded man had a hard grip on the Spirits hand. Traveler started laughing at that, actually amused by the awkward memory.

''What are you doing?'' Asked Traveler, not understanding Balance's action.

''The cops won't interrupt a homosexual couple, so stop shifting and pretend like you're enjoying the day.'' Told him Balance, pulling out his phone and started talking again. ''Megfigyelés vége, megyünk a találkozási pontra. Kell Striker, Archer és Mr. Muscle. Koordináták: Pest és Buda találkozása, Margit Híd alatt és intézzetek egy csónakot. Messze megyünk...''
[Observation over and we're heading to the meeting point. I need Striker, Archer and Mr. Muscle. Coordinates: The meeting of Pest and Buda, under the Margit Bridge and fetch a boat for us. We're going far away...]

With that, he put away his phone and told Traveler what he just did. Traveler get to know about the technology on Earth and who are they going to meet. There was an important thing, that he needed to keep in mind...

''My team knows nothing about what I am and what are you. Do not use your powers in front of them, got it?'' Balance told him and Traveler understood him.

They continued walking towards their destination, hand in hand and acting the couple...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''HA! GAAAYYYY!'' Shouted Pyromancer, watching the homosexual event...

The frog was still there, looking lovingly at the pegasus...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Luna was forcing back her laughter, while Traveler laughed through the whole trip. Balance wasn't afraid, to do REALLY suggestive things with Traveler. Hooking an arm around the Spirit's waist or shoulders, leaning against him or changing his voice to a more friendly one, pointing at something, to make them look like a more believable couple. Traveler prayed for the Elders, Gods and Spirits above him, to stop the Avatar, before he decides to kiss him.

But the acting did its work, as every cop that happened to pass by them, quickly looked away and went to someone else, asking for they ID cards. This brought up a question in Traveler.

''Why do they keep asking people for these cards? Are they that important? Because back there, they wanted to capture me for not giving them one.''

''They ask for the ID cards, so they can catch me, or the other assassins. If they ask for mine in the future, they will arrest me... so be ready for running away, if that happens...'' Balance said, leaning his head on Traveler's shoulder.

''And what if someone leaves that card at home?'' Traveler pulled his head away from Balance.

''Then they're fucked...'' With that answer, they continued their awkward way to the meeting point. Traveler really wanted to end this, finding Balance's distracting tricks too much.

Dream World : Part Two - The Traveler, The Beast and the Past (Part Two)

Rainbow Dash held her head, feeling a headache coming. Teacher Pinkie Pie kept on rambling about a story and an author, but she still had no idea who that man was and what he has to do with her, Applejack and Sprint. She wasn't interested in the horse, even if she found the green ride attractive. But it was all an attraction from his look! She is not interested in the fast horse, she doesn't want anything from him, but some naughty things.

And there was Applejack, one of her best friend. The cyan pegasus just get to know about the farm mare's crush on the horse in question. She doesn't want to stand in her way, to find the perfect stallion. But now, Applejack thinks her friend betrayed her, instead of staying loyal!

This is what made Dash angry and sad. She does stayed loyal, but Applejack didn't tell her about these feelings towards the big stallion. The Element of Honesty is too stubborn to admit her mistake, since her mind is going around Sprint.

And as we know, girls always lost their heads, when the opposite gender is in question...

''Okay, let me get this straight!'' Rainbow raised a hoof, to stop Pinkie. The pink pony was actually talking about some sort of changes in the future, but the pegasus already stopped paying attention. ''There is that being, who looks like Traveler and he writes this story, right?''

''Eeyap.'' Pinkie mimicked Big Mac's face, saying the farm stallion's signature word. ''Das 'im!'' She pointed at the humanoid picture...

I still hate you Pinkie...

''Now please tell me Pinkie and don't feel offended or bad about this, but'' Before Rainbow can saying anything else, Pinkie covered her ears, already knowing what will happen. ''WHAT DOES IT HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING!''

Her voice echoed and faded away at the mountainside, scaring away a group of birds and waking up Applejack. Then like last time, the ground started to shake. The realization hit them like a punch to the muzzle, when they realized where they were...

They were walking up on the same mountain, where Fluttershy accidentally created an earthquake and they had to run for their lives. To their bad luck, the road before them was already blocked, since the last time they created that earthquake, they choose another path to get down from the mountain...

Big boulders already started to fall down around them, for now, missing them. But soon, more rocks started to roll down from the cliffs and the trio found themselves in great danger.

''AHH! Horseapples!'' The farm mare grunted, getting tired of her pegasus friend...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Traveler spent the next few hours in silence, since Princess Luna got her answers from the memories. Every time, when the Traveler in the past asked something, Balance answered it. Surprisingly, the Alicorn had the same questions and felt the same with the answers, like Traveler in the memory.

She got to know a lot about Earth. The high technology, which allowed public transportation to become faster. The security, that Luna found a bit too strict, but effective in its own way. And the environment, mixed with the modern structures, left her gaze glued to the sky.

She learned a lot about the nature and space. Traveler had to explain the heliocentrical world view, since Equestria had geocentric world view and Luna never heard of these things. This explained, who raises the sun and moon. No one, they do it by themselves... at least, when she was looking at the shining objects from Earth.

They finally get to Balance's team, which was interesting too...

The big guy, Mr. Muscle, was the team's ammo carrier, had big weapons and was taller than Traveler and Balance. Living up to his name, he had big muscles and dark red mask.

Archer was slim and tall, carrying a silenced sniper in a guitar bag, had camouflage mask and carried a lot of pistols, all of them silenced, except a nice, silvery magnum with special decoration on it. Long range combat was his speciality and had knowledge about radios and other electronic devices.

Striker, the secondary leader. He had the same weaponry like Balance, along with a sharp mind and good tactics. The other two mocked him, for being Balance's favorite and often called him names for that.

Their personality was really different too! Like, Mr. Muscle was patient when he was on mission, but in other situations, he was a hot head.
Archer was too relaxed to be real. The world could fall apart around him, he would haven't a care about that. He and Mr. Muscle was the exact opposite, but got along well... when they weren't mocking each other of course...
And Striker was the serious one. Luna noticed how faithful he was towards Balance, so she assumed he was loyal and had a big respect towards the beast.

Luna would have enjoyed the mocking and jokes from the team, if they would not use nasty words. She felt the 'fun' atmosphere and all, but their choice of words made the Princess frown. And Striker's disappointment, when the team had to get back to the city. Balance said nothing else, but ordered the secondary leader to bring Mr. Muscle and Archer back to the city. The Alicorn found the leaders reply too harsh...

So Traveler and Balance rode through villages and forests, took short-cuts with tunnels under cities and caves, walked up hills and mountains and finally reached their destination. Sprint had to carry two soul on his back and he didn't really like Balance... Luna wasn't surprised...
The concrete roads, leading up to a modern house were empty and long. On one side of a cliff, the zig-zag way presented a great view over the water, the Atlantic Ocean. The luxury house was big, modern... and well secured...

''What are we doing here? But for real, who is this person?'' Asked Traveler, since he received little information about their 'mission'.

Balance sighed, while they were walking up the road. ''Her name is Marta and she has maps about The Gates. She refuses to sell them to just anyone, since she believes those maps worth a lot. She knows that they have important information about something, but she doesn't know about what is the information. She's a Mortal and a big head in the black market business. That's why we have to take away those maps.''

''So... I assume, no powers from me again.'' Nodded Traveler, looking over himself and making sure, that he wasn't glowing or flaming anywhere.

''Yes...'' Was the only reply he received and they arrived before the house.

Balance pulled out another small device, which had the shape of a small rod. After he clicked on a button, it let out a quiet beep sound and the assassin threw it close to the house windows. Then after a few seconds, the cameras turned themselves off, due to the radio waves of the device.

''Now go and you watch your back! Use knifes and your claws, but no spells!'' Warned Balance, before he quickly walked up to the front door.

And that's where the hell broke out...

''What in the name of...'' Luna trailed off, dumbfounded by the following events.

Balance kicked open the door and shot down two guards in the living room. Another guard was about to pull out his weapon, when the assassin shot that one down as well. He let the rest of his magazine out, when a small group of guards appeared from the corridor, next to the staircase. They heard a click from the kitchen and he reached for Traveler's knife, throwing it at the guard by the window. The black suited guard fell onto the window frame, just above the sink and painting the counter red, when Traveler quickly retrieved his knife from the dead man.

Balance walked up the stairs, reloading his silenced pistol. Traveler was at the bottom of the stairs, when a body rolled before his feet, from the top of the stairs. The guard had a wide cut through his neck, which let the blood to flow onto the floor. Traveler wasted no time and quickly followed Balance. As he reached the top of the stairs, another guard caught his eyes, but that one was pretty much alive and was approaching Traveler with a viper.

The Spirit caught the metal weapon, broke it in half and crashed the guard's skull with them. Luna frowned at that...

''They were-''

''bad people.'' Interrupted Traveler, already knowing what Luna wanted to say. ''The black market is not a market, which is black. They sell valuables, weapons and informations illegally. It's not a nice thing, as Balance told me...''

Balanced watched him and nodded, when the guard was taken care of. He walked into the room, where the guard came from and Traveler followed him closely. Both had to duck down, when a knife flew at their direction and out of the room. Then, as quick as the assassin ducked down, he picked up a box from a small table by the door and threw it at the woman behind the desk. It hit her hand, which was pointing a gun at the two and it hit the weapon out from her hand.

Balance stomped up to the desk and flipped it to the side, breaking several objects in the process. The woman tried to hit his face, but he caught it and used his free hand, to grab a handful of her hair and lower her posture a bit. Traveler took a good look at the woman...

She was probably in her early thirties, brown lines in her blonde hair. Eyes bright brown and a nicely looking makeup, which gave her the impression of a twenty years old, young adult. Since Balance lowered her to his chest, she was at around 160 cm. Such a small and young lady for a business like this...

Her eyes were shut and a painful expression on her face, as Balance tugged on her hair, speaking a bit loud. ''Where are the maps and where did you get them?''

''Let me go!'' She struggled to break free, but her hair prevented her from breaking away.

''I...'' Started Balance, then slapped her, leaving her right cheek red. ''ASKED YOU a question?! Who the fuck gave you those scrolls?!''

The woman screamed, which made Traveler frown. ''I don't know, they were inside my delivery and I kept them!''

''You're lying!'' Pulled her face closer to his Balance, looking at her angrily.

''Fuck YOU!'' Spat the woman, glared into Balance's eyes, looking less than scared from him.

The aggressive man growled and pulled her high, earning a short scream from her, as his grasp pulled on her hair. ''I know you had an abusive husband...'' Started grinning Balance, when she saw her eyes widening. ''You don't want to relive that experience, right?''

Before she can react, he dragged her through a door on the left side of the office. The room was a bedroom, with a single bed next to the wall. He pushed her onto the bed and the realization hit her, fear appearing on her red face. ''No...'' She mumbled, crawling away from the mad assassin.

''I can make you relive the suffering from the past...'' Said suggestively Balance, with eyes frowned and a cruel smile on his lips.

''NO, STAY AWAY!'' Now the woman was in full panic, pressing herself against the wall, finding no escape.

''Then tell me where the maps are!'' Balance pulled down the zipper on his hoodie, making the frightened girl to scream out the answer.

''IN THE WARDROBE!''

Balance glanced back at Traveler, who got the message and opened the wardrobe. Balance continued scaring the girl, by crawling up to her. ''In the wardrobe, where?''

''SHOES' BOX, NOO!'' She screamed, while Balance tackled her to the bed and held her down.

''Good girl...'' Whispered into her ears Balance, scaring her even more. ''Do you have any more secrets? You can tell me...''

''NO!''

Traveler started to get enough of that madness and quickly pulled out the shoe box, containing the needed maps. ''Got it, come here!'' He said, hoping that Balance will not go any further...

Thankfully, the mad man left the girl on the bed, crying and curled up into a ball in the corner. Luna sighed in relief, but Traveler pulled the side of his mouth, which the Princess did not notice...

''So, can you find The Gates?'' Balance asked, looking down at the maps.

''Hmm... yes... yes, I can. But I need a place somewhere else, to find the exact location of that island...'' Lied Traveler, trying to leave the house as quick as possible. He felt bad for going through that blood shed and having to watch a woman, nearly getting raped. It was unforgivable to just watch...

Balance stayed silent... and the whole room was silent. No more shouting, no more talking... and no more crying...

Crash! A bottle broke on Balance's head and sending glass shards everywhere. Apparently, the girl tried to knock him out, then deal with Traveler somehow. But the Avatar reached into his hoodie's inside pockets and pulled out a throwing knife...

''No, NO! I'M SORRY, NOOO!'' The girl screamed, when Balance grabbed her head and forced her down onto the nightstand.

''It was your last mistake...'' He said and raised the knife.

''WAAAAAAAAAH!'' Screamed the girl, tears falling freely from her eyes.

''AVATAR!'' Shouted Traveler, failed to reach the being, who he thought was a sane soul.

Balance brought down the knife and it stabbed the girl's... hair...

Traveler sighed in relief, when Balance walked up to him, no signs of emotion on his face. Even Luna let out her breath, which she was holding for a long time now.

''Never doubt my actions.'' He said to Traveler and both of them heard the girl on the nightstand, her head pinned down onto the furniture. The position was humiliating and uncomfortable, which made her struggle to stand normally. Her eyes were shut and filled with tears, as she was really close to get killed by an insane assassin. And of course, her memories about her horrible husband and the close encounter with rape terrified her...

''Shhh shhh shh... it's okay...'' Balance approached her, visibly acting the friendly man. ''Don't cry... you're still alive...'' He whispered to her, wiping her tears away. The girl yelped, when he touched her and struggled even more. ''You're punishment is over and only your hair will be different. But let's just face it, you're beautiful. Even with a short hair...''

''Balance, we must go.''

''Nonono no, please...'' Silenced Traveler, Balance. ''I apologize for my brute attitude, but be optimistic... you learned your lesson...'' He stood up and started walking out of the room. ''And you remained beautiful, see? A compliment... be happy for that.''

Traveler followed Balance out, feeling guilty for not releasing the girl, who called out for help. ''Ciao Marta!'' Shouted back Balance and they walked out of the house, reaching the road on the edge of the cliff.

''Was that necessary?!'' Asked an angry Traveler.

''Yep.'' Came the short reply.

''And why?''

They reached the road and Balance stopped by the rail on the side of the road, below him a good 30 meters high distance, before the next road would stop that fall. He turned around and sighed. ''Look, if I would have hurt her physically, then she would just continue her business in the black market. But since I hurt her mentally and recalled her bad memories, she will think twice, before starting a new, illegal business.''

Traveler agreed with that, but still found his action wrong. ''Alright...''

''Hey,'' Walked up to him Balance, placing a hand on the Spirit's shoulder. ''I spent my life in this world. I know how to scare away Mortals, from committing sins. Okay? Just leave this to me and trust me!''

Traveler looked at the smiling face of Balance's and he smiled too, forgiving him quickly. ''Okay...''

''Splendid!'' Clapped his hands together Balance and reached inside his hoodie. ''And since you really want to help her... here.'' He pulled out a device, which had the shape of an orb and a small stick on its top. ''This is the newest gadget on Earth. It was really hard to acquire it, but it is pretty useful...''

Traveler picked up the device and inspected it. ''And what does it do?''

''Oh, this is the best part!'' Balance excitedly pointed at the stick. ''If you pull this out and throw it away, it will clear up the mess everywhere. It has a short radius, but enough big to clean her house. The amount of material inside it detects the disorder and shorts out nearly everything... and since I only made a small mess, it should be enough for this task...''

''So... I pull this out and throw it inside her house?'' Asked Traveler, feeling better to hear these news. He could help the poor woman and still leave enough damage, to change her bad personality.

''Yes... oh, and make sure to throw it away quickly, or it will activates itself in your hands... and it won't be a good sight, seeing us with ripped down clothes...'' Chuckled Balance, turning away from the grinning Spirit.

''Got it, thank you!'' Traveler said, turning towards the house, ready to throw the device.

''That's the spirit... hehhe...'' Balance laughed at his joke and used his hands, to lean against the rail.

''This device is really useful. I wonder if we can create a spell like this...'' Mused Luna out loud, finding the little device's ability magical. She already imagined the spell in action, cleaning up her chambers under seconds...

Traveler bit his bottom lips, already knowing the true use of the device...

The Spirit threw the small ball inside the house and waited patiently, excited to see the following events. He never saw such a thing in his long-long life and he barely saw new things after so many years. Earth was a good place, to feel himself young again and knowledge hungry...

''It will also make every evidence about us disappear too. The reinforcement won't be able to track us down after that... and they will be in a big shocked as well...'' Muttered Balance, which caused Traveler to watch the followings more curiously...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Far away from the Princess and Traveler, Pyromancer facepa-hoofed, along with the frog...

''You bucktard...''
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

*BUMMM*

Traveler stood there in shock, as he watched the house collapsing. The device he threw was apparently something else and not a clean-up-gadget. His mouth was hanging open, eyes wide and he was froze in place.

Luna had a similar reaction...

''WHAT?!'' She cried out, mimicking Traveler's reaction in the memory. Same expression, thoughts and her mind started to place the pieces together.

''You...'' Traveler muttered, finally breaking his gaze away from the burning house.

''Grenade... a specialized one, thanks to Archer.'' Balance started, not looking back at the scene. ''Improved explosion power, takes longer before the outburst and burns away the marks from our last visit. Useful, isn't it?''

''You... killed her...'' Traveler was still in shock.

''Not really, but let's say I did.''

''You lied to me...'' The Spirit finally collected himself and turned to Balance, who was looking over the ocean. ''You made me kill her.''

''I'm not hiding it, but if you want, we can tell the others something else... like, I did it and you just watched...'' Suggested Balance, not aware about Traveler's rising anger.

''I hate him for this...'' Spoke up Traveler, sighing.

''Doesn't he know the word cruelty? Or regret, for that matter?!'' Luna was furious. Even if it was a memory and it was in the past, she still found these acts unforgivable. Not like they wouldn't be are, but many soul would shrug these things off...

Traveler gritted his teeth, glaring at the cruel Avatar. ''You said it will clear the mess.''

''It isn't a mess anymore, it's a ruin now. There's a difference...'' Immediately replied Balance, like he expected this sentence.

''And what about the evidence? Our marks?!''

''... they will burn away...''

''Just like her?!''

''... indeed...''

''I still can't believe he changed. How does one become a good pony, after committing terrible acts?'' Luna scowled at the memory on the sky.

''Like you...'' Finished the conversation Traveler, letting Luna think about it.

And so, she did just that. Her long way to change into a better pony was hard, not because of her. She clearly wanted to be a good Princess, but her subjects kept on doubting the return of 'Nightmare Moon'.
But she did it! She earned the trust of her subjects and she gladly addressed them 'loyal subjects'. A long time to give into the darkness and another long time, to cure herself out from the 'nightmare'.

''This is how he cured himself out too?'' The Princess thought, finding her past and Balance's too similar. The parallel universe theory came to her mind and she wondered if her faith actually replayed itself on Balance. Her knowledge about this theory was so little, that she decided to not make herself a headache.

''Well, if you're ready, then we sho-'' Balance never got to finish his sentence...

Traveler lunged at him, making themselves to fall over the rail. Traveler held Balance's body in front of him, slamming the Avatar into the road below. As they landed, the concrete road's surface broke, letting the two, to create a small crater around them.

Balance hissed like an animal, eyes turning darker, as his energy worked its way to his hurt back. Traveler delivered a punch to his face, which did little help, since Balance's Dark energy hardened his face and only angered him even more. He rocked himself backwards, allowing his legs to raise into the air. After his second attempt, he slipped himself lower, under Traveler and used his legs, to lock the Spirit's head and pinned him down to the ground. This allowed him to push himself up, with his hands above his head and arched his back.

Traveler felt his own back reaching his maximum flexibility and quickly found a way out of the spine breaking situation. With the same trick, he pushed himself up like Balance, hands above his head, pushing against the ground, as his arms could allow. The Avatar released the Spirit's chest from his leg-headlock and rolled backwards.

At the same time, a black car stopped next to the two being and black suited guards got out of the car, weapons in their hands. Balance pulled out a silvery gun, which Marta dropped and fired a few shots at the car's engine. The guards on the right side of the vehicle got blown down from the road, falling a good 200 meters lower. The others on the other side got slammed into the cliff's wall.

Balance shifted his attention back at Traveler, who was already in the air, pouncing at him. Again, they fell over the rail and started their way down from the high cliff. At first, Traveler had the upper hand, literally, as he delivered several punches to the Avatar's face. The blows went through the Primary Armor on Balance, making his nose bleed and his cheek to swollen.

***
Primary Armor:
Every being, who has magical abilities, has this armor around the surface of their body. It is invisible, but can be turned into an Aura, which absorbs more damage and becomes visible. The being decides how much energy he/she wants to use, to hold up this protection.
This is why these beings are able to survive two or three times harder punches, cuts, slices, etc. Since it can not be noticed for Mortal eyes, beings like these can blend into a crowd of Mortals and survive an explosion, while the Mortals die from the damage they absorbed.

This also explains, why Traveler can survive bigger falls and damage, without making his energy visible. And of course, creating the illusion, that he is not a Spirit and only a Mortal, who just capable of doing bigger things than a Mortal.
***

Balance had enough of this and made Traveler spin around a few times in the air, sending him slightly to the right. He extended his limbs, slowing his fall down and getting above Traveler, who just regained his control, only to find himself face to face with Balance. The now bloody man folded his limbs around the Spirit and started spinning, turning them into a falling torpedo.

''Let's beat some sense into you with this Falcon Drop!'' Shouted Balance, not letting Traveler go.

Traveler concentrated his energy into his head, creating a shield above himself, to ease the landing. Balance saw this and let go of him, letting the Spirit to dug himself into the sand. Grains of sand landed on Balance, who stood there patiently, not even bothered by the brown dust on him.

''That was a really dangerous move, he did. If you would have not focused on a softer landing, then that fall would have been your end.'' Told to Traveler, Luna, inspecting the scene.

''For powerful beings like me, a drop like that will definitely not be the end. Except, if we run out of power and there is nothing we can do in our last moments.'' Explained Traveler, making Luna turn to him.

''And what about the Breaking Point?''

''Yes, but that ability is connected to our emotions. If we use away, all of our energy and fall down, we can even think about our parents, the Breaking Point won't activate itself. BUT, if a miracle like that happens, it won't be a really big one and it would only serve as a surviving tactic. We survive the fall, but pass out, if our will power isn't enough strong...''

Traveler lifted himself up from the crater in the sand, dusting himself off. Balance did the same, clearing out his vision and spitting onto the ground. ''So!'' He started. ''Will you stop this insanity or we have to cut our manhoods, due to this sand?''

''What is he-''

''A human thing.'' Interrupted Traveler, before Luna can say anymore. ''He lived with the humans and they have this operation-''

''I do not wish to hear it!'' Luna covered her ears, refusing to hear about wrong habits and other things like this...

''Ugh, shut up!'' Held his head Traveler, feeling the softened impact on his head. ''Tell me if you actually know what're doing!''

''I can't do both, but I can assure you, that everything is under control. Part of the plan...'' Balance replied, finally dusting himself off.

They heard agonized moaning and coughing, coming from a few meters away from them. The black suited guards, who got blasted down from the cliff, were all scattered around in a small area, broken and bloody. Only one had to suffer for a little longer and Balance let him go to the afterlife, by sending a bullet through the guard's skull.

Traveler scowled at him. ''I can clearly see that. Killing is part of the plan and you keep everything under control! Yeah, you're perfection!''

''I take that you're still mad at me...'' Scratched his jaw Balance, acting the dumb.

Luna noticed the change of attitude in Balance and her eyebrows rose in realization. ''Dhanthas... so he does can control his actions! If not completely, at least his personality and way of thoughts!''

''You used ME, to kill HER!''

''And that is the vicious cycle of life. They use you, you use them...'' Balance started spinning his gun around his finger, magazine empty.

''Hmm...'' Humphed Traveler, looking at the careless man in disgust. ''So that is the great Avatar? The Balance? I thought your return was a positive sign... now I start to think that it would be better, if you would be dead...''
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Pyromancer was repeatedly smacking himself on the forehead. Sometimes, Traveler's choice of words and actions are too stupid... even for him!
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Balance stopped spinning his gun, letting it hanging on his index finger. Then he quickly moved it around in his hand, making it face backwards, instead of pointing at the Spirit. He let the magazine slide out of its place and inserted another one. He formed his hand into a fist, his index finger holding the gun by its trigger-guard, weapon still facing backwards.

He walked up to the Traveler, while readjusting the gun in his hand and now holding the weapon by its muzzle, letting the pistol's grip to be free. Stopping in front of the Spirit, he used the gun's grip to strike him across the face, making Traveler to lose his balance for a moment.

He was about to return the hit, when Balance helped him to regain himself and placed the gun into the Spirit's hand. Confused, Traveler let him place his fingers to the trigger, his other hand to the other side of the pistol and Balance held his hands on the gun, not letting him go.
The Avatar raised up the gun, pointing it at his own forehead. He held Traveler's hands tightly on the weapon and held them still.

''Pull the trigger!'' Balance ordered him.

''What?'' Traveler asked, even more confused.

''I want you...'' Balance pushed the gun's hole against his forehead, releasing Traveler's other hand. The Spirit's hands remained on the pistol. ''... to pull the trigger.''

''No.'' Shook his head Traveler.

''Come on man, it's easy. Just pull the fucking trigger.''

''I'm not gonna.'' The Spirit protested, slightly leaning back.

''And why?''

''I know what this weapon can do...''

''And what can this weapon do?''

''Taking away lives...''

''And?''

''It will take yours...''

''And I would be dead. That's what you think, which will be a better solution. So? Why changing your mind?''

''Because if I kill you, the Light and Hell will pursue me to no end. And I believe that we need The Balance and it's Avatar.''

''But I would finally be able to find my peace- no... my punishment in Hell. I'm a bad soul and you can clearly see that. Grant me this reward, to spend my afterlife in eternal Hell!'' Traveler stayed silent, trying to let the weapon down. ''You just have to pull that trigger and BUMM... everything will be much better for you...''

''For the last time, I REFUSE!''

Balance stared at him, looking somewhat disappointed. Finally, he lowered the weapon and took it away from the Spirit, who took some deep breath. Balance put away the pistol and placed a hand on Traveler's shoulder. ''You're angry, Spirit... you... are angry... I get it... I get it... I mean, if others use us, then who the fuck are we... I remember when I would do anything for others, to see them pleased. I helped for others firstly, I committed my first sin for others, my first kill was for others... and it wasn't enough for them...''

He let go of Traveler, turning away from him and holding his head. ''Nem, nem, nem, nem... it wasn't enough for them... nem...''

''You, see... the thing about our superiors... Our FUCKING SUPERIORS, control us like we're chess peaces. Like back then when the Light saved me from sweet death, not letting me leave this shit hole, they just did it. And then they dragged me up and said: Dhuradhan, WHAT THE FUUUCK, ARE YOU GOING TO BE?! DARK OR LIGHT?! LIIIIIIGHT, '' The Avatar leaned back, shouting at the top of his lungs and at the sky. ''OR DARK?!'' He stared at the clouds, like he was trying to look at the Elders above, then glanced at Traveler, who was watching him in shock.

''Ehhhehhheehhhee... like... *pant* I had a fucking choice.'' He noticed Traveler's expression and frowned. ''You think I'm insane... hm? You really think I'm insane? Do you think I'm bullshitting you? FUCK YOU! Fuck. You. Fuck your judgement, fuck the Elders, fuck the police, Lucifer, Luceta', the President and every one!''

Traveler frowned at the mentioning of Luceta', which was thoughtfully noted by Balance...

''So, if you don't shut up and help me fuck up the Light and Hell, then leave and let them lead and rule! Leave this world and resume living your little life.
OR... we can take our revenge on those bastards... are you in the game?'' Balance held out his hand, confidence burning in his eyes.

Traveler thought through the offer. The revenge part sounded promising, but his partner will be an insane Avatar. But finally, he shook Balance's hand, the same fire burning inside him.

''I'm in...''

''And they became the best friends in this universe. You can go home now readers!'' Pyromancer said to nopony in particular...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

After the dust cleared out, only a ruined mountain side remained. Only a small area remained intact and that's where three mare remained motionless, fearing for their life.

Applejack coughed, as her pegasus friend flapper her wings, to clear away the smoke from the rocks. Rainbow Dash was beating herself in her head, feeling stupid, for not flying away. But at the same time, she couldn't leave her friends...

''Rainbow, *cough* wha didn' ya flew away? Th' rocks could have squeezed th' life out'a you!'' The farm mare asked, looking at the blue mare.

Rainbow Dash flapped her wings a few times, getting out the dust from under her wings. ''I couldn't just leave you guys here! I couldn't decide which one of you should I pick up and I would never be able to forgive myself, if I save none of you and watch my best friends getting crashed by some rocks.''

Applejack started smiling and was about to say something, when Pinkie Pie cried out. ''SOMEPONY BROKE THE FORTH WALL! I CALL VENDETTA!''

The two, interrupted friend stared at the pink pony, who was wearing a grey wizard beard, hat and a staff. If they can recall it correctly, they remember hearing Pinkie shouting something... something along the lines of: ''You shall not pass!'' and they can remember seeing her holding up the staff, facing the crashing down boulders.

''Nevermind, I'll get my vendetta later. Come on hobbits, we have a ring- Princess to find!'' The party pony said, already bouncing up the rocks in their way. ''Who wants to be Frodo?''

Rainbow and Applejack, as expected, gave her a confused expression. They had some questions to ask, like how did they survive and of course, what the hay is she talking about!

But-

''But let's just shrug and forget about this. The author'' She presented that drawing again. ''wants to finish this terrible story.''

... but Pinkie wasn't about to slow down and got her friends back on track. They continued their way up on the mountain and were glad to finally reach the clear road again.

Applejack looked to her left, spotting her unfinished orchard. Little annoyed for not being able to finish the work she started, she still felt happy. Just a few hours ago, she was in a deep argument with Dash and it was only about a stallion. She chuckled at the thought of fighting for a stallion with her best friend. She never thought this will ever happen, but looks like this thought became reality.

And her doubts about her best friend got washed away. Rainbow lived up for her title... Loyalty...

''Thank ya Rainbow... ya 're my best friend...''

Author's Note

And part two, hope I looked it over watchfully. Now, time to read over the third part. Ahh, damn it...

Also, crazy Balance is best Balance! Poor and stupid Traveler...

Later everyone!

Dream World : Part Two - The Traveler, The Beast and the Past (Part Three)

And so, Luna continued watching the Spirit's memories. As much as she disliked Balance, he soon started to show an ally like attitude. As they proceeded to get a ship from some secret, legendary pirates, who are sailing through dimensions' waters and find treasure, Balance told what happened to the Light and Hell.

He gave out little detail, probably from tactic and personal topics, but Traveler got to know what happened. Thelestial's death, the events after his passing, Luceta', Lucifer's return and what Balance went through...

Traveler was visibly shocked by the news. He heard about their war and found the Light the 'good' side. But after what Balance said, he looked at the Light just like a system, which is only good for one side. It wasn't that different from Hell, they both wanted total control...
Light wanted a monitored system, while Lucifer wanted an organized Hell, spread over the world and dimensions...

Also, Balance told his plan and before they know it, the ship was ready. The Avatar showed good intentions and a respectable opinion... but his mood swings ruined this description about him...

''And back to aggressive...'' Shook her head Luna, actually smiling at the scene.

''Do you have something in your ear, you think I'm bullshitting you?!'' He told to the captain, who was scratching his head in confusion. ''As I said, follow the Spirit's instruction and give me a cabin!''

''Aye, aye!'' Shouted out the captain, instructing the crew. ''Come 'ere Spirit, show the way! And just pick a room which is your fancy!''

Balance grumbled a response, before heading down to his cabin. Traveler told the captain where to sail and quickly followed Balance. He saw him for a moment, before he closed the door to his cabin, looking slightly furious. Since he treated Traveler a bit better, he decided to be friendly and ask about his problem.

''This is gonna be nasty.'' Warned Traveler, making Luna to look at him.

''Why?''

''He was having an argument in his head. I think Dhanthas wanted to force him into something and he made his own self regret the suggestion. I don't really know, but how he made Dhanthas regret it, it was bloody...'' Explained Traveler, shaking his head.

Luna frowned at that and resumed watching curiously...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Traveler saw Balance through the key hole, punching his own face, while looking into the mirror. His nose was already bleeding and he kept on looking at his reflection angrily. Eyes piercing and teeth gritting, he kept on beating himself.

''What do you have to say for yourself?!'' A much stronger hit than before and the blood from his nose splattered all over the washing counter. ''Huh?! You fuck!''

He pulled off his clothes, revealing his upper body, which was full of cuts. On his back, many scratches, still visible and blended together. Well built and muscular, but his posture and injuries gave the impression of a normal human.

With his bare hand, he started clawing the left side of his neck, working the scratches down to his chest. He repeated the process for a long time, not looking away from his reflection. ''You want me to stop? ... then start begging!... I can't hear you!''

His clawing created a nice, long and red mark on him, nearly cutting up his flesh. ''You do NOT... ugh... play with me!'' Pulling out a knife from his trouser, he stabbed it into his left shoulder, growling in pain and electing other, inhuman like sounds. ''Scream as much as you want!'' He twisted the knife around, letting even more blood out from the wound. ''Scrrrreeeeaaaaammmmmmmm...'' He hissed, leaning close to the mirror and pulling out the knife slowly.

He licked down the blood and put the knife back to its place. Turning back to his reflection, he growled. ''Listen up you fuck! You're my bitch and do what I say. If I ever hear you whining or suggesting something to your liking, I swear to Lucifer, I'll make the next time worse! Now shut the fuck up!''
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

That's all, nothing much happened... at least in this story. In Balance's story, this part will be much more detailed of course...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

While Balance healed his wounds, Traveler quickly rushed outside, not wanting to piss off the Avatar even more. Luna had a disgusted expression on her face, her tongue slightly hanging out. Her face probably froze in place, under the process of gagging...

''This... this...'' She couldn't find a word to describe her thoughts. She expected him to threaten his Dark self, but to actually hurt himself?! ''I would never do that to myself... even in a situation like that!''

''Physical threatening is the most effective way, to control something or someone...'' Spoke up Traveler, sighing. ''I wonder what Dhanthas tried to talk him into...''

''I have a good guess, but I may be wrong...'' Luna closed her eyes, thinking about her guess.

''Care to share it?''

''Well... I noticed his behavior and I think his mood swings are all because of Dhanthas. He was friendly and calm, when you two were heading to the ship's location. But before that and after that, he just snapped. Maybe Dhanthas tried to convince him to backstab you? Literally?''

''Hmm... this actually makes sense...'' Traveler's eyes widened even more. ''It's not him, it's HIM!'' The Spirit cried out, finally be able to make sense of someone...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''I have to say, pirates are criminals, but their nights are really... really...'' Luna started, circling her hooves in the air, as she tried to find the proper word to describe the drunken nights.

''Refreshing? Free? ... Exciting?'' Listed Traveler suggestively, as the next thing they saw was him, walking into his cabin with a woman.

Luna's eyes widened, then she started giggling. ''I thought you're bad at these things.''

''A bed time requires no special skills. You just have to push-''

''Not like that!'' Stopped him Luna, now blushing slightly. ''What I meant to say is, I thought you're bad with dating or with females!''

Traveler raised an eyebrow, eyes still closed. ''Uhmm... as I was trying to say and do not interrupt me... you just have to push your luck. That's how I do it, since Spirits are not famous about their relationships and dating...''

Lune breathed out a sigh of relief, thankful to see Traveler as a gentlecolt...

''I just know you want to show your weapon, hmm~?'' Another pirate whore could be heard, as she was looking at Balance, giving him the bed eyes. The Avatar in turn, returned the stare, which was a look of irritation.

''Get to the point or leave me alone.'' Grumbled Balance, folding his arms in front of him.

The pirate leaned close to his ears and whispered. ''Your cabin, or mine?''
Without hesitation, Balance picked up the girl and threw her over his shoulders, carrying her towards his cabin.

''Well... that was fast...'' Stated Luna, a surprised expression on her face.

On his way, another whore skipped to him and jumped into his other free and awaiting arm, carrying her too...

Traveler started laughing, while Luna grunted in frustration, facehoofing...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Incoming clop scene- just kidding...'' Joked Pyromancer, grinning in satisfaction.

The frog was disappointed, since she thought he will do it with her...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''That ain't fair!''

Applejack stomped a hoof in frustration, her friends walking alongside her. She was furious about their revelation.

The Princess and Traveler weren't at the top of the mountain, hiding in a cave...

Rainbow shared the same feelings like the farm mare, grumbling curses and other unladylike things. Pinkie Pie was happy at first, because she was able to drag them away from the Everfree Forest. Also, she got to spend some time with her friends, just exploring like she always liked to do.

But then...

''Le gasp! Somepony broke the fourth wall again! Hohhooo, my vendetta is going to be sweet...''

By now, the other two mares stopped listening to Pinkie's weird talking and decided to continue their search in the forest...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Traveler followed Balance, as they climbed up the rocks to the vulcan's entrance. He saved his powers for later, already feeling a big fight ahead. Traveler wanted to just use some energy and jump up onto the big rocks, but Balance insisted to just climb it.

So after a few minutes of climbing rocks, stabbing stone to climb and creating some rustle with smaller, slippery rocks, they reached the entrance. The vulcan's crater was silent and they were glad to hear nothing but the water drops on the walls.

Balance, being the only one who can see in the dark, lead Traveler through the short path, always jerking him away from walking into the walls. Eventually, they reached the wider area, where the strange altar was. The candles were illuminating the room, with a crimson color and the chains were nowhere.

''What kind of altar is that?'' Asked Luna, still not getting the strange marks on the walls and the altar.

''That altar is just a disguise. The Gatekeeper has to hide from Mortal eyes, so they won't notice him. With that disguise, he can easily settle down in a church and drag inside every Mortal, who got too close to the relics on the altar.''

''Then why didn't he do that?''

''It would ruin The Balance. Mortals mustn't find out about the magical worlds. If they do, then their hunger for knowledge will drive them not just us, powerful beings crazy, but their attempts to try and reach us, will ruin the universe's Balance. Also, most of the Mortals would kill themselves to reach the afterlife and finally meet with a god. And I already explained what happens to those, who commit suicide...''

Balance stepped forward from Traveler and the Spirit waited for his first move. He wasn't really sure about the approach, since the Gatekeeper wasn't even there. He guessed that The Avatar knows how to summon him or call him.

And he looked like he did know a way to do it...

Balance banged his fists into his chest, then spread out his arms. ''TAKE ME INTO YOUR HEART AND ACCEPT ME AS YOUR SAVIOUR!'' He shouted, then formed his hands into fists, puffing out his chest. ''NAIL ME TO THE FUCKING CROSS AND SHOW ME ALL OF MY SINS!'' His arms trembled, as he tried to grip around the air. Then wiping back his head, he shouted with full force. ''LIGHT UP MY DAMNED COFFIN AND LET BE BURN IN HELL!''

The candles suddenly got blown away from a nonexistent breeze and the room became dark. Painful moans and chains clanking against each other, replaced the room's recent silence and Traveler summoned his weapons.

As his energy illuminated a really small area around him, a man's face came to view, as he pulled off the dirty cloth from his eyes. The last thing Traveler saw, was the man and Balance behind him, sending his scythe at the Gatekeeper.

Darkness meant the end of his past self's conscious and Traveler dismissed his spell...

''Cool movie bro.'' Spoke up Pyromancer, while stretching out. ''Well, it was good, but I'm bored, so I have to find something to light up. Bye froggy-who-looks-like-a-princess-but-I-don't-give-a-buck!''

As the pegasus flew away, the frog started to glow in blue. Its height started to increase and its limbs started to get longer, along with its head and body. A blue, flowing mane and tail appeared, with a pair of wings and a horn. And soon, where the frog was, a clone of Princess Luna stood there, crestfallen.

Then shaking her head, she sighed and adjusted her attire. Black socks, reaching up to her cutie mark, black leather straps hiding only a little part of her, while letting her flank, neck, belly and head exposed. Her mane was tied into a pony tail and on her hooves, a pair of high heeled horseshoes, completing the sexy set.

''I though he will like the socks... well, he was the blind, for not seeing my amazing look~!'' After saying this out loud, she flashed a stunning pose towards us, giving the bed eyes.

The author couldn't take it anymore and went to have a cigarette, due to forgetting what he wanted to write next... seriously, looks CAN kill!
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Luna yelped, as she saw the horrifying man for a split second. Then looking confused at the darkness, she asked. ''Wha... what happened?''

''He got me and I passed out. The following events are probably familiar...'' Answered Traveler, looking expectedly at her.

''Oh... indeed I know and I still feel wrong for that.''

''Well, at least we're over with that part...'' The Spirit pointed out, adjusting himself on the water surface.

''Right.'' Was the reply to that from her. ''Although, I wanted to see Balance losing against the Gatekeeper...''

''I knew you'll get to hate him.'' Laughed Traveler.

''No, it's not that. I just wanted to know HOW he defeated that beast. I mean, he knew what not to do and still...'' Trailed off Luna, looking thoughtful.

''Heh, he probably got tricked by something sex related...'' Joked Traveler, a knowing smile on his face.

''Or maybe he had a thing for the Gatekeeper...'' Luna's joke wasn't effective, as her giggle got interrupted by a shiver.

''Uh... maybe he had a thing for his eyes then?'' Suggested Traveler, trying to shake away the wrong pictures in his head.

''Who knows? I bet he wouldn't even care, if YOU do it with him. Seeing how unassuming he is...'' Shook her head Luna, grinning a bit at Traveler's expression.

''Uhm... first, he just WAS like that, now he doesn't... I hope at least. And second... what are you talking about? I would never do that.''

''Really?'' Luna looked at him slyly. ''I could see you smile by heart back there.'' Traveler still held the same expression. ''Oh, I bet you enjoyed it. Spending your time with the Avatar, hooves in- hands in hands, holding each other... You two would make the best couple.''

''And why do you think I'm interested in him... or he in me for that matter? You saw him taking a girl to his cabin.'' Reasoned the Spirit.

''Yes, yes. Two actually.'' Waved her hoof the Princess. ''But I got you to be embarrassed.''

''Considering that I'm terrible at these things... yes, you probably got me. And if I consider his interest towards females... yes, he most definitely has his eyes on my backside...'' He responded with sarcasm, which made the Princess frown.

''You are no fun.''

''Why try to make me embarrassed all the sudden?'' Raised an eyebrow Traveler.

Luna looked away, a slight blush coming to her cheeks. ''Tie still makes jokes about our relationship...''

''Are we in a relationship?''

''No, that's the thing! She keeps on embarrassing me with her words. 'Have you and Traveler kissed already?' or 'You should show him your'' There, Traveler covered his ears, a natural expression on his face. ''soft side, Lulu?' I'm full of her games!''

''I can not relate to something like that. Not only I haven't got a brother or a family for that matter, but I'm terrible with relationships.'' Moved his hands away from his ears Traveler.

''I see... and I'm not good in that either...'' Luna came up with a last chance, to get him. ''Wanna be better at it?''

''Hm, I can start it with you.'' Replied Traveler, winning again.

''What?!'' Luna cried out, blush coming back quicker than ever.

''Got you.'' Grinned Traveler.

''Oh you...'' The Princess splashed some water at him, making his dried hair wet again.

Something lit up in Traveler's eyes. ''You do know, that I have the upper hand in this fight.''

''How so?'' Smugly looking at him, Luna did not expected his next move.

As Traveler sent a huge amount of water at her, breaking her concentration and making her all wet, she yelped and fell under the water. The sudden contact with the cool water was enough to make her heart rate go faster and losing her focus on staying above the surface.

She came up for air and spotted Traveler, lazily swimming towards the beach. He waved at her, grinning evilly and sending more water at her. It was on, the Princess of the Night had to return his favor.

Using her wings to propel herself forward, she used the momentum, to blast water at him. Traveler turned his head away, already laughing. Blindly sending more water at her, he was close to the beach and his legs were touching the bottom of the water. Now standing, he turned around, only to be washed away by a wave of water, which was twice as big as him.

Luna laughed in victory, galloping out of the water and to Traveler, who just regained himself from the unexpected blast. Spotting her, so close to him and nearly out of the water, he kicked the water at her. Luna half giggled, half yelped as this and retreated. Hopping out of water, then stomping back down into it, she was running away from him.

Traveler kept kicking after her, the water close to Luna. The Princess, even if it was silly, she really enjoyed their little fight. She was also glad, that her sister wasn't there, to make a joke about them. It did looked really like that, but she cared less about this. She spent most of her time at the castle, never getting a chance to have some fun.

And there he was, Traveler, coming from nowhere and gave her the fun she desired. First, she get to let out her frustration on those Followers, then she get to see a new world and now... she was reliving her childhood memories. Just playing around, not caring about proposals, the nobles and the faith of Equestria.

''You're too slow! I give you a tip: Get better at stealth and speed!'' Taunted Luna.

''And you should shave that mane! It's getting in your line of sight!'' Retorted Traveler.

''My mane is eternal and should never be cut down- AH!''

''Also, you shouldn't get distracted!'' Laughed the Spirit, interrupting her with another splash to her face.

''I'm just explaining! Like you did and I have some useful tips for you!''

''Yeah?! And what kind of tips?!''

''Tips for fighting! I noticed a few things and I can point them out!'' (Words of a proofreader...)

''Let's hear it then, I'm curious about your opinion.'' (Words of a desperate author...) Traveler stopped assaulting her and both stood in the water.

The Princess of the Night had the water reach her belly, while half of Traveler's tights were under the surface. The water around them slowly calmed down and only the waves, created by nature were making a small disturbance.

Luna started. ''What I saw in your memory, is that you're effective in range and melee attacks. This is a really good combination, but you're too slow. Your powers may makes you faster, but it requires energy. Also, your claws are for duels or fights, where you don't have more than fifty enemies against you. You use your claws for fights like that, wasting even more energy. There is your pole-ax, which is just perfect to face down an army and you don't use it.
According to my observation, I think you should work on getting faster and stealthier.''

The Spirit listened closely, nodding once she finished. ''You do have a point. I should train myself for these, but I have great amount of energy. I'm fine like this.''

''Because of this tactic, Balance managed to defeat you without using that much power.''

This picked up Traveler's interest. ''Explain.''

''Of course.'' Smiled Luna, seeing him being interested in something for the first time she saw him. ''Let's take a look at Balance's fighting style...''

''Hey, how's it goin'?!''

The two looked towards the newcomer pegasus, who just landed on the sand. His arrival was short lived though, due to the next couple events. It started with Pyromancer spotting Luna... all wet...

*POMF*

''Damn it...''

Luna's eyes widened, seeing the odd pegasus getting a wingboner all the sudden. Then awkwardly turning back to Traveler, she continued. ''Yes, let's have a look at his fighting style...''

''Oh, TV, cool. Gotta go, bye!'' He was about to took off, when his erected wings just wouldn't let him and forced him back to the ground. ''Buck me sideways...'' He muttered and started running away from the 'crime scene', leaving - of course - his signature trail behind him. For the first time, he didn't ignite himself to look cool, but to get away from the awkwardness.

He did get a hard by the Night Angel's look... it's too awkward for him... even if he's awkward...

Traveler and Luna turned back to the sky, where a scene was playing. It was that moment, when Traveler and Balance were walking up to Marta's house. ''Watch his movement.'' Said Luna and both paid close attention to his walking. ''See the difference between his and yours? You walk with momentum, have to strain your muscles, when you have to stop. And his? He walks surely, nearly having a foot touching the ground at all time. Maybe it's paranoia or he's just careful, but even in fights, he stays stable.''

''It isn't that necessary. In a fight, I always get into a fighting position and stay on guard.'' Folded his arms Traveler. ''But you do have a point, go on.''

''As you can see, his posture is odd.''

''I don't have that flexible spine to stand like that.''

''I know, that's why I'm going to skip this and take a look at his gear.'' Luna shifted the vision to another moment, when Traveler and Balance were fighting. ''Now, while he only used several, hidden and deadly weapons, you already spent some energy, to save yourself. I know, he took you by surprise, but there were moments, where you could have beat him. But your speed wasn't as fast as his. You have powerful blows, but they're slow and you can't defend yourself from a close encounter. Instead, you let your opponent to hit you and absorb the damage. And again, you waste energy to ease the impact.''

Traveler's eyes widened a bit, realizing the truth in Luna's words. ''I... haven't realized that. Well, looks like I already have something to practice for...''

''Now, the weapons.'' In the vision, they could see Balance, releasing a full magazine from his hidden guns. After that, the vision faded and showed him and the Gatekeeper, as he blasted the empty soul with the shotgun like shells. Again, after changing to another scenes, it showed the Avatar, using his hidden blades in various situations. ''I am not expecting you to have such a machine on your arms, but Traveler, look at all those knifes you have! Big, middle and small sized, you are full of them! And I have rarely seen you using them, only your claws and pole-ax.''

''I'm still working on a spell, which allows me to require my used arrows and throwing knives. But I just couldn't break gravity's barrier, or master out some kind of detection aura for them. And neither my eyes won't turn into selective, specialized for finding my left behinds.'' Traveler pursed his lips, as he found Luna's blurted out words true... again...

''That is the only thing, which the Avatar doesn't have: Additional Magic and Supportive, while Balance only have Destructive. Using your Supportive powers, you can easily create a black hole in your backpack and place everything inside it. Then, your Additional powers can be used to bend the backpack's physical form and reducing its size to... uhm... what kind of smaller backpacks do you humanoids wear?''

''Pouches, handbags, rucksack for younger generations.'' Answered quickly Traveler.

''Right, then reducing its size to a pouch. It would require little energy to summon out something, which has a connection to the storing object.''

''Binding!'' Blurted out Traveler, facepalming. ''Why didn't I think about that?! Then that makes everything much more easier!''

''It is, you just have to go through your knives and enchant them, so they will be connected to you forever.'' Nodded Luna, smiling.

''Have you ever did that?''

At that, Luna smiled sheepishly. ''Back then, Tia and I enchanted our... toys... so they won't get lost. We... well... we played a lot and always forgot about our belongings. And so, me and my sister used this binding spell on our... toy chest... and we were able to keep our things forever.'' By now, the Princess of the Night was blushing. The memories from her foalhood were always embarrassing and silly, considering how many times she got into trouble...

''Well isn't that cute.'' Traveler chuckled, making her blush even more. ''Aside from that, I'll enchant my stuff later. Right now, I have an adviser to hear out.''

Luna thanked to Traveler under her breath, for dropping the topic and stopping her embarrassment. ''So, just use your gear and abilities wisely. He doesn't have any Additional or Supportive powers, only Destructive one.''

''Actually, those are Light and Dark powers. The blue color is just the nature of those powers and mostly because of him.'' Corrected Traveler.

''So Destructive...'' Stated the Princess.

''Not quietly. They can be Destructive, Additional and Supportive. Remember, those helped to create a world, so they being Destructive would be illogical...''

''Oh, I understand. Then he may have those, but he doesn't use them. That also makes you different from him, because you have far greater abilities. Not just destruction...''

''I agree...'' Nodded the Spirit, taking mental notes.

''So, use your other powers in fight too. These Additional powers are also good for everyday life and makes everything easier.''

''Hmm... so while you're laying in your bed, you just levitate some snacks over yourself and eat it. Like a little Princess...'' Joked Traveler, looking smugly at Luna.

''We are not like that... just from time to time...'' She whispered the last part and hung her head.

''I don't blame you. You Alicorns require little magic to levitate objects. While a Spirit like me, needs to focus and spend a fair amount of energy, so we can allow ourselves that comfort.'' Calmed her down Traveler, nodding for himself.

Both turned towards the sky, watching the next scene unfold. It showed Balance's movement, while he was taking down the guards in the luxury house. ''His instincts are sharp and yours too. But his... his is somehow different.'' Mused Luna.

''He's a cannibal. Of course he senses better than me. And I have Map for scouting the area. The energy signs he sent me in the city were faint and Spirits can detect this... he could have easily killed me, without me knowing about his presence.'' He explained, which made Luna look at him questioningly.

''I though you can feel every Spirits' presence, no?''

''If they lock it inside themselves, or channel it to somewhere else, then they can remain unnoticed.''

It was Luna's turn to say: ''Explain.''

''You see, he's an assassin and that means, he must remain unnoticed and give no signs of presence. There are other Spirits, who locks away their powers. It is really easy to do that actually...
When you use energy in a fight or any other kind of magical activity, you release energy. This energy spreads around you and can be sensed by other Spirits. The more energy you let out, the further it gets from you and can be sensed easier. Or, the Spirit who sensed this energy, can detect these waves in a bigger radius, so you don't have to release that much energy, to make yourself known for someone else.
How to describe this sensing? Well... look at it as a sixth sense. After getting familiar with that feeling, you quickly get used to it...''

''Why would you reveal yourself?'' Asked the Princess.

''When you get injured and cannot move, you usually let your energy to be released, so someone can find you and help you. This is not common of course, since your ''savior'' in question can be cruel and kill you right there or just ignore your SOS signs.''

''I see... what is an SOS?'' Again, the Princess asked.

''It's some sort of code, which the humans use to call for help. I heard that somewhere there and found it useful... but there aren't many Spirits, who knows this code or whatever I should call it...''

''Oh...'' Nodded Luna and looked up at the scenes again. Changing it again, she brought it to that moment, when Traveler and Balance were fighting against the undead pirates. ''Now, you did send Sprint, Hunter and Map to fight, but they were on their own. You were supposed to work together as a team, when Balance decided to go on his own. Speaking of him, look at his tactics!'' The scene showed the Avatar, eyes focused on the incoming hits and quickly countering all of them. ''He uses the enemy's attack, as his advantage. He used your size-''

''Tell me you're not talking about my'' Luna covered her ears, but the blush was still present. ''height. I can't do anything about it.'' He finished and Luna was relived to hear him saying something else...

''No, of course I'm not talking about-''

''My length?'' Grinned the Spirit.

''NO!'' Luna cried out. ''I thought we stopped this teasing!'' Looking away from him, she now (and again) had a cute blush on her cheeks. This one actually lasted longer, since this time, Traveler openly suggested something related to mating...

''You were the one, who thought I will say something like that. You just set up a trap for yourself, so...'' He trailed off, stopping embarrassing the Princess.

''Okay...'' Luna closed her eyes, inhaling once. ''Okay...'' Turning to Traveler, she started. ''So, as I was saying-''

''We should stop this. The second round was too rough for you dear.''

''Traveler!''

Author's Note

And that's it. No more side story with Balance, no more painful past (for a while) and just simply... uhm... just simply fish!
Aside from my bullshit here, I (of course) want to clarify some things:
First, the details and character interaction/reactions. I mentioned this in my latest blog posts and wrote a comment here. I'm gonna improve my writing and that means better quality, more details, realistic lines and dialogues for characters, longer chapters and closer attention to grammar. I don't know if you noticed it in this chapter, but I put MUCH more work into it. (Of course, grammar errors will be present from here and here. STILL LEARNING!)
Second, HOLY SHIT THAT TOOK ME A MONTH?! I hate school...
Third, magical science and explanation about powers... tiring and difficult to write, but worth it. There will be more in the next chapter, while the plot twist unfolds... :D
Fourth (Wall), Pinkie Pie parts... well, I don't know what to say about them. I pretty much made myself look bad. I deserved it actually. I just threw out chapters like they're rubbish. (And they still are...)
Fifth, I lost a few readers and I just let it go. I completely understand why they stopped following this crap and I have to make sure this will never happen again. As i said earlier, the story will be get improved and better, since I will take my time to post something new. Better keep that promise...

Mood swings are really annoying... Poor Traveler, who is sexy. Balance is still a beast.
I really enjoyed that cute moment with Traveler and Luna in the water. There will be more from these kind of moments...

The next chapter will be... REALLY difficult. But I hope I can make it...
Have a fantastic day!

Dream World : Part Three - Improvement (Part One)

Attention: Writing style change after the first thousand words or more. Explanation for the change of winds after that...
************************************************************************************************************************************************************
Luna slowly, but surely managed to explain to Traveler, what he has to improve on. Every time she finished one topic, Traveler would make a joke, which pretty much created small embarrassment inside the Princess. She just couldn't put the pieces together... What is he doing? How come he hasn't showed this side of him? Is he trying to suggest something?

After these thoughts remained unsettled for a while, she soon started to enjoy his little teasing. Though, it did make her embarrassed and she started to think that her face will forever remain a deep-crimson colored, she felt relived and overall happy. Traveler was finally easing up, looked more lively and opened up more and more...

His posture indicated a friendly appearance and his jokes told about his confidence about becoming good friends with Luna. His shoulders were fully let down, only the muscles of his chest kept his arms on his side leaning out of his body. Finally, he stood at ease and somehow, it made the Princess stand much closer to him.

Right now, she was standing next to him and not a few meters away, like they were about to fight...

''I see your point... I should really change my style.'' Nodded repeatedly Traveler, his arms folded and one hand brushing his beard.

''I still do not understand why you haven't changed on your fighting style...'' Glanced at him Luna, pulling her mouth to one side in deep thoughts.

Traveler frowned and stayed silent for a second. Then, lowering his hand back onto the other one, as he stopped brushing his beard, he hummed. ''Well... I think it was because of the title of mine.''

''What does your title has to do with your fighting style?'' Luna questioned.

''The Traveling Horseman. I'm a traveler and that meant going to places, where I needed to be effective at every situation. Well, after my visit to the human world and meeting with our beast, I found myself ineffective against an ambush.''

''I thought about plans, to counter such events and become effective at stealth.''
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''HA! It rhymed!'' Shouted Pyromancer, still running back to his little sand-couch with a wing-boner.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''But... as you guessed, I moved on. I've never gone back to Earth and only visited the Balance Universe's other planets. I mostly spent my time riding through the fields of A'nfora and the rest of its magical places. Due to my continues travels, I hardly encountered a surprise attack, even if it was set up...''

''You see... I can sense the Followers. They tried ambushing me, but they failed. I was prepared for every attack from them and from others and I soon forgot to think about countering similar situations. I thought I was good for this range and melee style, but if I think about it now... hmm, there were several moments, where I could have used my little knowledge of stealth.''

''I understand.'' Said Luna, after he finished.

''Also, another Horseman... War. He was the only one who taught me how to fight. And his lessons said honor and fair fight! Yes, he was a huge knight and I'm... I'm me. I'm not huge and my armor is not impenetrable. I only remembered his teaching and... well, you see how my style is right now. HIS style, but with a bow and arrows.''

''But it is not a bad thing. You learned and kept your teacher's words in your mind and heart.'' Luna's reassuring smile faded slightly. ''But what you told me about the outside world, I think you see the problem too. You have to use everything you have, even if that means leaving honor behind...''

''Sadly, you're right...'' Sighed Traveler.

''Traveler,'' Picked up his attention Luna and he looked at her. ''using such methods won't make you a bad pon- Spirit.''

''Person... and you're right.'' Breathing in through his mouth, Traveler casted a slight glance and a slight smile towards Luna. ''You're talking from experience?''

The Princess sticked out her tongue as a response and Traveler laughed.

After regaining themselves, Traveler started shaking his head. ''To think that a new approach against that Sombra would have been easier... ugh, I'm such a fool.''

This made Luna turn to him...

''Really, what happened in the Crystal Empire?''

''Eh.''

Traveler's head shot up and he gazed at the night sky. Again, between the constellations, his memories could be seen and it was showing his road to the Crystal Empire.

''Just watch...''

''Alright.''

And with that, both remained silent. Luna saw how Traveler descended down the frozen waterfall and resumed his track in the violent blizzard. How he got seriously injured and passed out from the cold. She watched when Rainbow Dash tried to heat him up and when the flaming pony saved them. Meanwhile, she observed Pyromancer's ability, but she remained confused.

''How can he do that?'' She asked out loud, but received no answer. She assumed she will get her answer by remaining silent and watching the events...

She was relived to see Traveler, standing up and facing down Sombra again. Then she was confused (Again...) about where was he going. After she saw the Everfree Forest for some reason, she was embarrassed by the next moment. She decided to just not look at the Avatar's lower part and kept on watching the events.

To say the least, she was pleasantly surprised to see Balance being much kinder and she was relived to hear that his ''good side'' will help defeating Sombra. Yes, she knew that Balance was better now, but she did prefer a completely good soul and not a mood-swinging and violent something, who is most definitely out of control...

She was amazed by Dhuardhan's power. It took all of his energy, yes, but his attack was really strong. She noted that he gave Traveler a cross, which might come handy in the future...
As she watched as Traveler and Pyromancer were freezing to death, she fell into deep thoughts...

''My sister and I couldn't defeat Sombra that easily... did this horseman defeat one of Equestria's most dangerous treath by himself? What could one Spirit like him do, to vanquish such an evil being like King Sombra?''

And there was that big explosion, when Traveler and Sombra got blown away by the Crystal Heart's power and landing far away from the Empire.

''Was that it?'' She asked out loud again and just like the last time, she received no answer. But she was too intrigued to take her eyes off from the memories...

She watched, as Sombra lost nearly all of his power and was cursing everything in Equestria. She watched, when Traveler blocked his final blow and popped his hand back to its place. The Princess cringed when he did that and soon found herself intimidated by Traveler's look.

And the following events only made her stomach to make backflips...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________
***********************************************************************************************************************************************************

After so many months, I decided upon finishing this story at last, so do understand why it won't be the same writing style like before. Those who have seen my work so far, will be familiar with the following writing style, but those who not, then I assure you, that you will be in a great treat.
Also, I have a busy schedule, so I apologize, if I forgot a detail from the previous chapters. It would consume too much time to read back on what had happened, but thankfully, I know what will happen in this chapter. Not a huge problem, but may poke your eye a bit, if you payed attention and notice a small mistake on my end.

I apologize for the delay and I hope the upcoming parts will certainly please you. Improved writing, description about magic and so on...

Enjoy!

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

The flaming pegasus came to a grinding halt on the pale-blue sand, sending up a massive amount of sand behind him. He successfully got away from any awkward situation and actually managed to ease his previous adrenaline rush. Though his wings were still in an outstretched position, the erection was finally fading away. His muscles, thanks to the short 'workout', had calmed down, leaving the pony without any stiff appendage.

''Son of a duck! 'Twas a screw up from my end...'' He cursed, feeling a wave of excitement upon recalling the look of the Princess. ''Easy boys, let us watch The Horseman beating the crap out of Simba... aggressive Spirit tc-tc-tc... never keeping his cool.'' He shook his head, half-amused and half-disappointed.

Without further ado, he trotted up to his sand couch from behind, jumping over it and without any care from the world, he let himself fall down onto his napping spot. He expected to feel the soft sand beneath him and awaited for an easy landing, but his prediction was thrown out of the Dream World, when a pair of hooves took hold of him, placing him down on his back with the speed of sound, yet gently. ''Whoata-!'' Before he could let out any sound, he was quickly silenced by a pair of lips, pressed hungrily against his.

His 'attacker' pulled away and quickly pinned his hooves down, not letting him go. Pyromancer's feeling of vertigo was over and he looked up at the 'attacker' in question... then he felt the uncomfortable tension inside his wings...

Right above him, with sultry look and sparkling teal eyes, which indicated lustful intentions, was herself... the Princess of the Night...

''Holy plot of Princess Luna!'' He let out, completely out of his mind already. He didn't even question the odds, no matter how this world was called. He was too entranced by the mare of his dreams...

''Drop the title and call me Lusty Luna.'' She cooed, starting to nip on his ears, sending electricity like jolts through him.

''Oh, I'll do anything for you.'' He stated, his eyes shut and mouth presenting his teeth in a toothy grin.

She moved her head back above him, grinning slyly. ''Uhhh, anything~?'' She received several short and quick nods from the pegasus below her and she was more than happy to give him that chance, to do anything for her, but not allowing him to do anything for himself...
''Aww, brave hero, allow me to get started...''

Her head moved down to his crouch and Pyromancer's eyes rolled up into into his skull...

''Oaahhaa!''

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''And you were wondering why did Twilight Sparkle had become upset about you?'' Luna frowned at him, disbelief dripping in her voice.

''Correction: I knew you equines will not tolerate my action. What I cannot understand, is the fact that none of you meant the gratitude to me, after the Element of Magic revealed what I had done. I helped, crisis over. What's the point in bashing at me after that?'' He explained, still not sure what to make of his situation. In the past, every contract was simply a kill and no soul complained about his methods.

''Do understand, Traveler, that the Element of Magic is a Harmony Element. And you are aware about the source of its magic...''

Traveler sighed. ''Friendship... however, how can I understand such relationship and a magic, that is as foreign as a friend for me?''

''What about Balance? Or Dhuradhan, if it is his real name?'' Luna pressed on, hoping he will catch on.

''I doubt he is one. We are simply allies and to tell the truth... he knows less about friendship than I do now.'' Oblivious to himself, he said out loud the answer.

''And that is exactly it, Traveler. You know more about friendship, thanks to the Elements of Harmony.'' She started smiling, upon seeing Traveler's interested face. He was slowly getting at it...

''Go on...''

''I've been trying to figure out your sudden mood-swings, seeing as how you keep getting into trouble. No matter how much you think over your replies, you end up on the wrong side of the ponies... and your friends. You are unpredictable, due to the events, that had occurred. I see you are catching on now, but let me finish, Traveler.'' Receiving a nod from him, she continued. ''When the Harmony Elements vanquished those Followers, you were in its magic radius and experimenting unknown magic like the Magic of Friendship, it highly affected you.''

''You mean...'' Traveler's eyes widened, having a wild guess about what she was getting at.

''You in person, told me about your magic... remember what you had told me about Energy?''

''Each world has a different kind of Energy type and it could alter the behavior of a soul. If not completely, then the Energy is just slightly different from the used Energy inside the soul. However, if the soul's Energy is completely different from the world's Energy...'' He trailed off, realization hitting him right in the face.

''Then the soul will suffer a temporary attitude change and while he or she tries to cope up with the uncalled emotions and sensations, the soul's body will try to get used to the new kind of Energy. In short, you are sick Traveler...'' Luna revealed it, plainly letting Traveler know the unpleasant truth.

''And given how close I was to that beam at the castle... by Thelestial, you're right!'' Traveler was putting the pieces together, slowly but surely. His hard days after the explosion in the Ancient Castle and how he couldn't decide whenever to be friendly and when to keep his own personality... more like couldn't control himself... ''My Energy was flawed in the fight against Sombra and when the Chrystal Princess unleashed her own magic... I reached the Breaking Point, feeling exactly like how I felt after Floya' 's...'' He felt something trying to explode inside him, but he quickly realized what it was. ''My Energy is not obeying to my order... it want to take over control.'' He looked at Luna, slight panic plastered onto his expression, while his left eye started twitching. He had to calm down, or he would reach the Breaking Point without the need of surviving...
''Tell me the difference between mine and Equestria's Energy!''

''There is a fatal difference between the two... Equestria's is alive and bright, while yours is empty and lifeless, Traveler. You can't just control it like you used to do in some-world else. Everything in Equestria is alive, just like magic... you have to feel the Energy, not rip it away aggressively.'' She told him, looking concerned. She couldn't imagine how it could be, to not be able to use magic all of a sudden.

''I... I'm not sure. I don't know how to do that... should I just wait until I'll be stable?'' He questioned, loss at options. He would rather not try using Energy in a state as such, in fear that it would hurt him or others.

''Let us just calm down and wait until the magic opens up to you. Respective usage and proper intentions are the firsts steps of learning spells and only after that, you can use it with ease.'' She suggested, going back to the most basic lessons at magic school.

''But I'm leaning more to the Ability Wing, remember? Spells are unpredictable for me... just like I am unpredictable as of right now!'' Traveler couldn't be any more lost. No magic; and emotions, that could take over his mind? The only thing he needed is another disaster or something alike...

''Then it works just like that, Traveler. I sense you are having problems with the basics as well...'' Luna was even more concerned now. It was like he was slowly losing his mind, forgetting even the basics of magic.

''I've never learned the basics... only experimenting with Energy, is what I did in my younger years. I didn't have a teacher or master, nor I did research in books. I just knew the type of Ability or Spell and did it, out of pure instincts.'' He defended.

''Then what were those books you had read back then?'' Now she was confused. He personally told her that he had gathered great knowledge from Newtome's books and he knew the Alteration Power Tree. He caught on the Binding Feature from the Enchanting Power Tree. How could he knew all about these, without learning, nor seeing them?

''Landscape pictures and descriptions, plus I mostly read the Balance Universe's History... Luceta' was who I wanted to get to know, before I attempted to kill him... but The Balance did it before me and that is why I cannot hold my grudge against him. And I realized that Newtomes knew nothing about Multi Universal Physics and that the majority of his basic laws were flawed. Other than these, I read nothing about magic, I just had in myself.'' He dismissively explained to her.

''How is that possible?'' She asked, aghast by the revelation.

''I'm a Spirit, as you know. And you see... I didn't and still don't have a family for certain reasons.''

''And are those...?'' She cocked her head, waiting for him to spill it out.

''Well, I'm a Pure Spirit and not a Hybrid Spirit, who has a mother to be brought to life. I, myself, was created from pure Energy and with knowledge about everything that is Energy. It has its advantages... and only my years made me forget so many, but those many details had become second-nature for myself...''

It was at that moment, when they saw two blue ponies, close to each other in a loving embrace and doing something inappropriate. ''Penetration!'' Shouted a familiar pegasus, turning his mane and tail into the signature flames, like those transforming fighters from the future. ''Yehheass!'' Cried out another familiar pony, one that should not be there.

Well in that case, none of them should be there, falling into the deep water in mid-fun...

Both had cried out, before reaching their peeks and crashing into the waves, leaving a blast of water in a wide circle. As the waves reached Traveler and the Princess, they both whipped their heads towards each other, expecting the other one to explain what just happened before them. None of them had any clue what was Pyromancer doing with an Alicorn, though, they could only watch what was happening.

They were able to spot the Alicorn, nestled on top of the fire pony, whilst he was propelling themselves closer to the shores, using his tail as a propeller. Luna's eyes widened and a familiar looking crimson shade conquered her expression, upon realizing that her 'clone' was wearing a 'fun-time' dress, a rather fitting one for her actually. Lusty Luna rose from her partner and fluttered over to Luna, who in turn raised her hoof, not knowing whenever to run or stay.

Lusty Luna smirked and leaned close to the Princess' ear. ''Show some more affection and he will be all yours...'' She motioned towards Traveler, who seemed to found the night sky more interesting.

Luna gasped, not wanting to understand what her alter-ego just said. ''Wh- what? Why would I-''

''Sweety, don't even hide it... not from me...'' She interrupted her, walking back to Pyromancer, who had his tongue lolled out. She stole a kiss from him, before departing. ''You sexy thing, I'll see you tomorrow. Call me maybe...''

''See ya' LL, it was my pleasure!'' He called out, doing his best to flip onto his belly at last. Unfortunately, his outstretched wings prevented him from doing so and he just stayed there, slowly floating away on the surface.

''You know it!'' And with that, Lusty Luna flew away, disappearing in the Dream World's wide variety of environments.

Pyromancer did a double hoof into the air and said. ''I am the master commander!''

Traveler, pulling his mouth to the side, slowly strafed over to Luna, leaning in a bit to whisper. ''Mind telling me what she said?''

Luna forced down her blush and coughed once. ''No...''

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

After the glorious sex with Lusty Luna and the awkward moment between Traveler and Luna, the silence spoke between the two. Traveler had Summoned his companions, given how they should get used to their new forms and new Energy source in Equestria. Though, it was the Dream World, they did register the Energy from outside, just like Traveler and Luna.

The two were watching the animals, practicing their movement in their new body size and strength, except Sprint, who seemed to be rather confused by the whole world. Occasionally, he would start trotting around, wiggling his fore-hoof. Sometimes he started sprinting, but after finding out what the problem was, he couldn't go any more and ran out of Energy.

The same thing happened to Hunter and Map, too. Both of them starting charging, then were forced to stop, due to the lack of their natural energy. All three animal had long ago ran out of that Energy, that have been inside them from another world. And now, filled with Equestrian Energy, they were clearly unsure about their skills. Except Map, who was getting the hang of it, but every time his wings started flaming, they just died out.

They repeatedly tried cloak themselves in flaming or gleaming Energy, but they eventually cracked from not being able to focus on their Abilities or second-nature failed them, since the Energy itself didn't want to function in that way. In defeat, they decided to just kill time, while their master and his company were discussing the usage of Equestrian Energy. For a while, they listened to them and watched, as Traveler, even with using Words, couldn't bring up a proper Primary Armor.

Eventually getting bored of their master's failure, they decided to wait out this grim time of theirs. No Energy for now, it was fine, at least they could move around finally...

That was exactly what Hunter had in his fortified intelligence filled mind and he proceeded to poke Sprint on the rear leg. The great horse looked down onto the fierce animal and to both of their surprise, Hunter was doing a sentient-like motion to follow him. Sprint, delight and confusion on his animalistic expression, followed after Hunter. Sprint thought he was the most intelligent one, but now that Hunter showed a sentient-like motion and actual desire, he eagerly awaited to communicate with someone else, like he always wanted...

As a sentient being and not with animal language...

Map followed them with his eyes, raising an eyebrow at the two teammate. He knew that they will try to communicate with each other, but what they didn't know, is that the mutation was not over. So, feeling the need to help out his friends, he flew after them, not even bothered by a watching flame pegasus, who was curious about the sudden departure of the animals.

''Something is smelly and it's not just the sweat on my body or the- nevermind...'' He said to himself, leaving Traveler and Luna oblivious to themselves.

''Come on, just Disenchant this feather.'' Luna told Traveler, already starting his practicing with a really easy magic, that required no Energy creating, only Energy taking.

''Tck, for the love of-!'' He threw the feather away in frustration, getting seriously sick of the lack of progress.

Luna sighed and extended her wing, waiting for the fallen feather to fully fall into the water. It did and the Binding Enchantment activated itself, as it detected the change in the feather's state. It disappeared from the water and appeared on Luna's wing, where it was originally got pulled out. It filled up the hole, where her skin was visible for this short time and she Disenchanted the feather for herself, not wanting it to grow back next time, if something wrong happens to it.

''I suggest we should wait and calm down. As long as nothing interrupts us, it won't effect your state.''

Traveler was quick to agree and without a word, he fell backwards and into the water, just floating there and marveling on the night sky...

Luna joined too, making her mane wet again...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Sprint turned around to face Hunter and he raised up his right fore-hoof, offering it for a shake. Hunter looked at it and got a message, extending his own right fore-leg and carefully wrapped his claw around the horse's hoof. They shook it once, a single up and down, then let go of each other's limbs, nodding once to each other.

Hunter started looking around, until his eyes landed upon a small area, where the grass wasn't covering the forest ground. The trees around them may have been standing frequently and the leaf covered branches blocked out the moon, but it was enough moonlight to see. Especially for Hunter, whose predator eyes provided him a clear night vision.

He walked up to the dusty circle of ground and using one of his talons, he started carving into it. With his other maw, he delightedly used it to do the same sentient motion towards Sprint, sending him the message to get closer and see what he was doing. The horse walked up to him with ease, not a single second though going through his mind. He was happy to do what his teammate was asking him to do. It was a sense of innovation for him and to say the least, he was happily receiving orders from someone else, finally.

For millenniums, he, Hunter and Map has been under The Traveling Horseman's orders. For so long, they have been doing what they were ordered to do... what they were meant to do, for that they were created just for that purpose. And now with extended brain capacity and in this strange world, they could do all the things they have wanted... live.
For too long, they nearly had no time to just relax or try out the life-given opportunities. To feel what is it like to have free will and actually think without the need of receiving an order. To learn something from experience and not seeing it or hearing it from another soul. Learning from their own mistakes and not just getting a warning from their master.

They were sentient beings and even if the Horseman was able to call them back into their magical 'home' , they felt like sentient beings, when not locked up in a rune...

Hunter finished carving, just in time for Sprint to see it. In the ground, it was not carved, but written 'Hunter'. Said hunter pointed at the writing, then back at himself, all the while looking at Sprint. The horse nodded at that, moved a little away and carved his own name into the ground, via a fore-hoof. He then proceeded to go through the same motion and just like Sprint, Hunter nodded at that, making sure to be able to recall the name.

And that is when Map arrived and landed before them. The eagle took a quick glance at the two names, closed his eyes for a moment, then opening it, he hardly, but surely turned into a huge roll of paper, enfolded in a dark-purple, nearly crimson aura. The paper hovered before them, showing a blank page, where words started to appear. Very soon, there was a whole text, written down onto the paper, with neatly drawn strokes.

''It is a great idea to already start communicating. However, it is unnecessary. The mutation will be soon over and we will all gain our evolved forms. Prepare for future pain and a sudden change of personality. As of right now, we are empty and will need some more time to reach our maximum capability. The dark equine, King Sombra, his Energy courses through us, altered into a way to speed up the process. Instead of hundreds of years of traveling, tonight will be the last days of our animal states. Civilization awaits us, decisions and after we speak with The Traveling Horseman, we will be free from our cages.
Our Powers have been improved, our Energy capacity increased and our intelligence is sickly immense. We are A'nforians and we will be Spirits not so later. We will learn our Techniques on our own and coping with everyday life will be a prior surviving task.
My soon mutating and my not visible rear-limbs are burning and I feel like I'm about to be ripped apart. I can feel something, urging me to run away for help. Fear, is what I feel. My first emotion and more will come along with full force. Equestria's Energy is under the process of registering and welcoming us. Do stay patient and wait until our Abilities re-stabilize themselves and synchronize with Equestrian Energy flows.
The flame pegasus is coming...''
The two managed to finish reading, before the eagle turned back into his animal form, gliding back down onto the ground and looking at the names on the ground. He too started carving and finished writing down his name, hopping before the two times larger teammates to bow.

''Who wants to have sex?!'' And sure enough, Pyromancer arrived loudly. He looked at all three, striking an indescribable face.

While Sprint and Map remained unimpressed and just stared blankly forward, Hunter growled, hitting himself on the forehead. And only after that, he realized that another sentient reaction has been memorized by him. He stared at his paw for a few second, wondering when will happen his next gesture, if things will keep happening as they do now...

''Heh? You tell me...'' Grinning in a silly way, Pyromancer proceeded to walk past them, taking the direction towards that field, where they first appeared with Traveler and the Night Princess. ''Don't mind me, just goin' for a walk to clean my jimmies. Or you three can stop fooling around in the bushes and go for a walk with good ol' Pyromancer... not like leaning to that side is a bad thing...''

Hunter was the first to start walking after him, eager to just listen and react, like he never before. He thought suffering from Pyromancers random rambling, could quicken the process and he will be sentient much faster. Registering and getting to know the emotions - mostly irritation, annoyance and amusement, if Pyromancer was involved - and the ways to react to certain situations. How to take a question, targeted towards him and how to respond to specific statements. So many things to learn and he was not one to let this opportunity to slip.

While the wild-cat followed after the pegasus - which looked highly reminding to a predator stalking after the prey - Sprint looked at Map for an explanation. The eagle surely had a proper one and sweeping away the names, he wrote a single world: ''Useful''

It was enough for Sprint and he too followed after the pegasus, above him flying Map...

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

A'nforia:
The name of that world, where there are no Mortals and magic is an everyday thing, in the lives of the A'nforians.

***

A'nforians:
The name of all living beings/creatures, that are forbidden to be seen by Mortal eyes. Those creatures, who are not know about by Mortals and only exist as a myth in their lives.
Examples: Elves, Spirits, Gods, Saints, Legends, Dragons, Anthropomorphics, Ents etc...

***

Energy: Something you experience with, to increase its amount or how to save more of it after using from it.
This is something, that you have a certain amount from it and have it, to use Abilities/Spells. It has more kinds from it, too. (Light Energy, Dark Energy, etc...)
The more you have from this, the more the Power effects the user. (More Dark Energy can make the user bad...)
Energy types belong to the Power types, so if you don't have Light Powers, then Light Energy won't be in your posession...
Examples: Dark Energy (from Dark Powers...) Light Energy (from Light Powers...)

***

Power: Something you often Tune to acquire.
A certain kind of Energy amount, which has its own 'personality'.
And by personality, I mean: Effects, amount of effort/Energy to use that power, Abilities/Spells for that kind of Power and such. A style, if you'd like to call it like that...
Examples: Dark Powers, Light Powers, Elemental Bending

***

Power Wing:
Two wings, two kind of Techniques. There is a difference between the Spells and Abilities, and after stepping onto a Power Wings, you can go to the next stop: The Power Trees. And list goes on, until you reach the name of the Technique.
- Knowing this is useful for beginners...

***

Technique:
It could be one of the Power Wings, let it be a Spell or an Ability...
A Technique is something you do, by the usage of an Energy kind, from the available Power kind, in order to cast a Spell or use an Ability.
- Saying Technique means that we do not know whenever it is a Spell or an Ability. It's the third most accurate definition to name a Spell or Ability.

***

Spells: Something you learn from books, school or teacher. The other wing from the Power Wings.
Something you learn and let it to work on its own. You don't have to move the Energy for yourself, you just have to use up the Energy for the required Spell and leave it to last as long as it can. It costs less Energy, but it is unstable if you don't make the preperations for it correctly, before sending it away/letting it start working/activating it.
They may be simple and look weak, but even the simplest variation of Spells can be effective together. In other words, NOT better, NOR worse than Abilities... it depends on the user...
Example: They can do the same things like the Abilities...

***

Ability: Something you learn on your own, experimenting. One of the Power Wings.
A certain kind of usage of a Power's Energy. (Like using Dark Power's Energy, to do a Dash Ability.) We move the energy in a certain way, to create an Ability. WE move the energy for our own, not leave it to work on its own. (Spell)
We usually mark the Ability's kind, placing a part of a Power's name before it. Example: Light Teleport (Teleportation with Light Power's Light Energy)

Examples: After Effects, Side Effects, Dash, Slice, etc...

***

Power Tree:
This is how the magical arts define the different kinds of Spells/Abilities.
Example: Alteration, Conjuration, Summoning, Enchanting, Morphing, Transformation etc...

***

Alteration: One of the Power Trees.
Bending the reality of something, via Spell or Ability, all the while using Energy. Alteration comes from completely using energy. (Therefore, Balance doesn't use Alteration to Morph his arms into claws. It's inside him, with a Bound feature.)
Examples:
- Telekinesis. (Because the caster makes the gravity to disappear around the target, without using a relic or other object. Therefore, BENDS the reality...)

***

Enchanting: One of the Power Trees.
Enchanting is the art of reinforcing, putting a certain effect (If we need positive outcome.) - or weaken, increase the difficulty of something or someone. (If we need negative outcome.)
There are various effects you could put on your target...

Examples: Seals, Marks, Binding Effect, Auras etc...

Hint: Primary Armor is an Enchantment and Traveler uses it as an Ability.

***

Disenchanting: The negative part of this Power Tree and also used to delete the current Enchant from something or remove it to replace it with something else...

Example: Curses, Seals, Marks

Hint: What Floya' put on Traveler was a Curse.

***

Binding Feature/Enchantment/Effect:
And Enchant, which allows the enchanted object or someone,to return to you, when something happens to it or gets out of line of sight / gets too far away from you. The destination of the Binding could be a pocket, holster, backpack as well, not just the thin air in front of you...

***

Summoning: One of the Power Trees
Summoning someone or something out from something. (Pretty much what Balance does with his Scythe, Golden Cross.) (Balance's claws are from Morphing ability, that means, he only Morphs the look of his body, slightly. Transformation is when completely losing the original look of yourself...)
Example:
- Balance summoning The Scythe out from his marks on his right shoulder.
- Balance summoning the Golden Cross from himself.
- Traveler summoning Hunter, Map and Sprint from his runes. (No, his double pole-axe is not Summoning!)

***

Words:
- Saying out loud the name of an Ability/Spell, you help yourself focusing better on successfully doing the needed Technique. Usually, when you start Tuning an Ability/Spell or start learning it from a book, a teacher or someone else, you ought to use Words to help you getting used to the Technique and perfecting it out. However, when you have difficulties at focusing for some reason (Getting hit by something painful and such.), you could use these Words to help you performing the Technique just as perfectly as before you started to have these difficulties.
- There is no shame in using it, there are masters, who still use the Words to absolutely and perfectly perform a Technique.
- If you say more of it's name, you perform better, since your intentions will be sensed by the Energy. It is like you are giving more precise coordinates and instructions to you Energy. In other words, the Energy will work better on doing the Technique...

Examples:
- Tuning/learning starter: ''Ability Power Wing, Alteration Power Tree, Telekinesis.'' *performs Ability easily and perfectly*
- Tuning/learning starter: ''Alteration: Telekinesis.'' *performs Ability/Spell not as easily or not perfectly or both*

***

Primary Armor: Primary Armor is an invisible aura around a being like Balance. Every creature like him can do this, when they use their energy to create an aura around their body, so the received blows will be less painful or deal less damage than it should.
This ability doesn't take that much of energy. The user of this ability only loses 1/10 of his/her energy. (This is only the usual case, of course. There are beings who practiced enough to lose less than 1/10 energy and there are beings who have difficulties with this ability, so they lose like 2/10 or more.)
This armor can be increased of course, so if you need a harder Primary Armor, you have to sacrifice more energy to do so. The more energy you spend on this armor, the less you can concentrate in a fight. Since a stronger one requires attention, while a simple, a ''to-your-power-level'' Primary Armor needs little or no attention, a Primary Armor with boosted strength can change a fight's outcome. And it's not always the outcome you want.... (Depends on how skilled you are with this ability.)

Author's Note

Who got the DragonBall reference? Leave it in the comments below, if you did.

Also, tell me what you think of this new feature I put here. A dictionary for magic! I don't know what YOU guys think, because in Balance's story, people seemed to like it. So, tell me please.

If you find the lacking information about the A'nforians, then do not worry, it is on purpose! It is in connection with the story's rating... you're realizing it now, don't you? Well, the rating will change, thus allowing me to describe more things. Sorry for those who are not interested in mature stories, but I cannot help myself. And getting a warning for having the rating too low, is not on my to do list, either. My Universe is a mature rated one, where the A'nforian society is a serious one and it could make people uncomfortable...
But I think all of you expected this to happen. With all those marked sections in the story and all...

I'm not gonna explain why I stopped writing this for so long, because I will tell you after the Epilogue, where I will hold an important speech about the future of this story and there will be some required help from you guys. But not now, for I'm editing this in the late night-hours and I spent a lot of time re-searching for the definitions.

I hope you enjoyed this improved writing style and stay tuned for the next chapter, because FINALLY, it is time for the oh-so many times mentioned plot twist. In that chapter, you will clearly see the improvement from my part, because this chapter got ruined by the beginning. Still, I'm not gonna fix the previous chapters, nor will that first few thousand words. I told you... busy... and the summer soon ends, so no... just no...
I'm better at first-person, but the writing style from doing that, followed me to third-person too. My vocabulary expanded from English as well, along with the usage of commas, full stops and such. Now I have an actual idea about how the royal sisters would speak and I thoughtfully explained to you the reason for Travelers mood swings... which was actually me, carelessly changing his personality, like a bad HIE writer... no offense. So, characterization it is... I have some things, you'll see... because this next chapter won't be about just Traveler, having problems with his emotions, that will have a key role in the tale... I'm pulling myself out from the mess, don't worry.

Have a nice day!
~Adam

Dream World : Part Three - Improvement (Part Two)

''Then we FLEEW over the bucking ocean in mid-rut and slAAAMed into the water! And I'm telling you... it was glorious...'' Pyromancer finished telling his time with Lusty Luna, dramatically flailing his hooves around and to the discomfort of the half-sentient animals - mostly to Sprint's discomfort - , the flame pony demonstrated a few positions.

Hunter would have been internally laughing at how the great horse tried to shake the pervert pegasus down from himself, but the ever building pain in his hind-legs, thighs and mid-section soon reached an unbearable level. He was already lagging behind the other three, half-sentient and half-animalistic grunts of pain escaping from him. Map was the only one, who stopped to wait up the limping wildcat, whose whole form reminded the observing eagle about a tiger or some sort. The changes were highly visible, given how he had lost his usual look. His muscles were undefinable, somewhere between Humanoid arm and tiger fore-legs and his paws had been expanded, turning into grappling claws slowly.

The eagle, either because of his own agony-filled state or for good-fellowship, completely turned around to watch his teammate fighting down his overwhelming mutation. Arriving next to Map, Hunter collapsed and let out a painful and forced back roar, muffling the sound of snapping bones and ripping of flesh. Map witnessed, as the tough feral animal's body, changed absolutely. From animal structure, through an indescribable appearance... Hunter's final form revealed itself...

His fur lost its old, pale-grey look and changed to a complete dark, nearly black color. Tiger-like stripes adored his coat, which were pulsating in dark-blue Energy, visibly showing his Power's and his own type of Energy, whilst letting go of short period of flames. The Humanoid like muscle built and skeletal structure fully reached its peak to Hunter's pleasure, resulting in feeling no more pain from inside his body.
His paws were now wielding the look of a Humanoid's feet, yet the fur and sharp nails reminded the inspectors about an animal's appendage.
Grappling claws could be made out on the ends of his fore-arms, in a rather fair size as well.
Strong arms he had and the same could be said about the rest of his body. The tone of his muscles were just simply poking the eyes out, no matter how his coat covered his whole body. The muscles on his neck expanded, adding a finishing touch to his evolving. Blue and feral eyes snapped open and sharp teeth retried back behind his lips, as he stopped growling and stood up tall.

Hunter blinked, flicked his cat-like ear once and started grinning. He wiggled his fingers, inspecting his new claws. Swished his tail and noted how longer it grew, how it kept its cat-like look and how he was able to move it around with ease.
He then started looking around, a rush of excitement inside him, as he realized how tall he was. His height was around Traveler's two meters height, if not taller. In comparison, Hunter seemed to have a larger built, yet Traveler seemed bigger. Either if their muscles were the same size, Hunter had an impressive body, just like Traveler...

The pulsating Energy inside his body eased, unfortunately, not completely. His body just reached his final form and was still getting used to Equestria's Energy, though much easier now. Now, his body was able to take in the Energy in this form of his, transferring it into his own Empty Energy easier, since his body wasn't mutating anymore. It was the final stage, so the Energy was able to be stored away in a stable form and not into a changing one. This was one of the reasons, why the evolving caused so much displeasure to Hunter and it was exactly what the other two was experiencing as well...

Map was about to resume following after the others, when his underside started to burn from an upcoming explosion. A sickening snapping sound could be heard, along with several more noises coming from his muscles, as the eagle's size increased to double his original size. Paralyzed by the unbearable and sudden pain, Map fell to his side, unable to move.

Hunter took a step forward and with the same moment, fell forward. The newly acquired legs weren't tuned yet, no matter how strong they were. Walking on all fours for thousands of years, this new lifestyle was - obviously - new to him. He expected this walking difficulty, yet falling face-first onto the ground, was not in his mind before. Now, he had and standing up again, his legs buckled underneath the pressure and he collapsed, landing on his side.

Map's sudden rush of pain eased down, yet Hunter was still worried about his teammate. He felt ashamed of himself, for not being able to help, but thinking it over, what could he possibly do? He was no expert at Healing Abilities, not even a starter. The only Power he had used before was only his own, mixed with the Enchanting Power Tree's Energy. He was trained to hunt, not to tend to wounds and even when HE got damaged, he ignored those cuts and bruises...

However, he did not give up that easily. He was going to help his teammate, one way or another. With that newly found determination - which was another emotion he discovered - , he attempted to stand up. At first just standing up and getting used to balancing his own weight. Stand up, fall back to comfortable all fours and repeat. The realization that he was still able to walk on four legs, brought him some comfort and he used this discovery as a 'B' plan, if he won't be able to learn the bipedal way.

Map watched in interest, as his teammate slowly got the hang of it. When Hunter fell and stood up, the eagle felt something new. A new emotion, that one, which you feel when you see someone close to you succeeding in a hard task. Pride...

This pride further increased inside Map, when Hunter managed to stay in a standing position AND started walking around with ease. It took him too many tries and the others were probably left them far behind, but if they go with their own pace and not with the speed of a snail, then they can catch up to the others. With that in mind, the Anthropomorphic walked over to Map, picked him up and gave him a perching spot on his right shoulder, holding up his right arm for him. Map hardly stood on the shoulder, but placing his wings on Hunter's head and into one his held up claw, he found his balance. Also, in this position, his wings stopped aching so painfully, as the feathery appendages had nothing to do, but expand to their final size.

After making sure his teammate was safe and stable, Hunter began walking after Sprint and Pyromancer, feeling incredibly happy to have his final form done.

His life as an Anthropomorphic was about to start...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Are you sure it is wise to try such Technique?''

''It's a useful one. If I can't manage this then I'm done... ''

Traveler activated his Primary Armor, though its durability wasn't the same as before. Ever since he got stuck by the Elements of Harmony, his most used and prior defense has been worsening. This was one of the explanation, why he wasn't able to take on King Sombra alone, then was forced to resolve to berserker methods, in order to vanquish the existence of the dark pony. Also, his short meeting with Balance did little to serve his emotions to the better and instead, it only stirred up old memories, along with awakening his buried away sins.

Unfortunately for Luna, she couldn't help him. Equestria's Energy acted stubbornly, not wanting to give into Traveler's wants. For thousands of years, he had been used to hollow and empty Energy in different worlds. They were lifeless and easy to manipulate when they were in usage. If not completely 'dead' , then just submissive or slight-free Energy types.
And there he was, in Equestria, where he pretty much had to earn the proper usage of the Energy. It was inside him, yes, but bending it to his own will was what caused him troubles...

Great troubles at the past events and now...

''Ghh... naaAAAGGHHH!'' *swusss* ''I'm done, I'M FUCKING DONE!''

Traveler picked himself up from the shallow water, thankfully surviving the Dash without any damage. He nearly got it, yet the result was faltering his hopes. Energy collected under his Primary Armor, pushed up against the layer of said armor, he jumped up, slammed the collected Energy against his Primary Armor and into his back, launched himself forward and that was it. He did it millions of times, dodged many incoming strike from many foes and he always landed perfectly.

But not this time, for the Energy used for pushing him away with amazing speed, it completely pushed him out of balance. First went his upper body, then his legs got launched upwards, instead of forward and at the same time with his upper body. Thus, it resulted in a rolling, spinning and tumbling heap of body parts, rocketed away from the Night Princess, who just listened to the Horseman's color language, as he was walking back to his starting spot.

''- while you uppercut an undead pit of doom... bázdmeg!'' Traveler added the last vulgar word with venom in his mouth.

''Are you done?'' Luna asked, patiently waiting out his increased rush of negative emotions. She knew it wasn't his style to tell the world all of those nice things in one breath.

''... no...'' He stomped once in the water, literally kicking out the last of his frustration. ''NOW, I'm done...''

And with that, he dropped onto his rear, not even registering that he just splashed water into the patient Princess' face...

Sprint heard the approaching sound of a bipedal creature and he turned around, expecting his master to be there. However, he did not see Traveler anywhere, but a tall Hunter, with a larger Map on his shoulder. Sprint was taken aback by the spectacular sight he found behind himself. If his teammate evolved so early, then that meant his turn was getting closer...

Hunter arrived behind Pyromancer, who just finished talking about his fun time with Lusty Luna and was withering the poor horse's brain...

''Tell me about your sex-life.'' The flame pony asked, turning around.

Only to come face to face with Hunter...

''What in the glorious penis happened to you?!'' He then accidentally glanced lower. ''Agh! Take that away from me!'' He jumped away from him, right into the bushes. ''Have some dignity!'' He cried out, failing to regain his balance on the branches.

The other three just stared, re-taking what he just said and trying to figure out if he was serious...

At last, Pyromancer crawled out from the bushes, tearing down the branches from them, as he stumbled out from behind the leaves. Meanwhile, Hunter realized he was indeed naked and to top it of, he was completely exposing himself, from the way he was standing. Quickly, he approached Sprint, who took a step back, not being sure what his naked teammate will do. But he understood him at last, when the Anthropomorphic placed Map onto the his back instead, then he proceeded to turn away from them.

To Pyromancer's disbelief, Hunter just turn towards him, when the pegasus finished brushing himself off from remaining leaves and dust and laid his eyes upon the predator. Covering his eyes and turning to the side, he spoke up. ''Okay, I can't be in the company of a dick, so I'm just gonna go and get some clothes for ya'. Be right back!''

And he was gone, nearly setting the vegetation on fire, with his signature flame streak...

''Destiny?''

''No...''

''Alicorn?''

''We're looking at it from multi-universe aspect. I can't stick to just one world or universe.''

''Immortality- uhm... we have been over that one as well...''

''Indeed...''

Luna and Traveler were discussing the Never Ending Cycle of Life and Existence, seemingly stuck at one point. They've been over 'death', 'immortality', 'rebirth', all the way from the start, which was 'will'. But no matter how close or far were they from the 'end' of this cycle, Luna was delighted to see a better side of Traveler's. It was like his mood was swinging from negative to positive and stops at a certain emotion. Now, he was calm and thoughtful, unlike the previous time, when he was angry and nearly hysterical...

Besides, Traveler was calming down. She may did not know how his mood swung, but maybe keeping him under stressless moments, she might be able to control him...

Show some more affection and he will be all yours...

The words of her unknown self brought inconvenient fantasies to her, upon thinking about controlling him. What was Lusty Luna talking about? Pff, like she was going to seduce Traveler and take advantage of his state...

Only in her deepest pit of her mind, she pondered over the idea...

While regaining herself, little did she notice, the flaming pegasus on the beach, coming to a tripping stop. Eating a mouthful of sand and spitting it out, he lowered himself to the ground, ready for the stealth mission. Traveler was distracted with his own thoughts and Luna was internally beating herself, for just even for a second, she dared to think about such inappropriate topics...

Thankfully, Traveler had left his backpack on the beach, containing all of his additional clothes. Fishing out an underwear and Traveler's previous brown trousers, he waltzed back inside the forest, doing spanking motions towards Luna's rear, before disappearing.

And the Princess of the Night herself turned around, looking around doubtfully...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Lonely branches tried blocking his path, as he speed past every obstacle. The vegetation had no match with Sprints strength and speed, as the powerful horse tore everything out of its place in his way. His mane and tail was flaming from his green colored Energy, leaving little trail behind himself. His wild dash through the forest was targeted towards that certain field, where they had originally appeared first. The corners of his eyes were obscure, blurry from the high speed and his focus was on the road before him. He had to get out of the forest. He needed the space!

After the others regained themselves from a momentary scare, they gave chase after their teammate. Hunter ran on all fours, gladly finding out that he could still lower himself to full animal state, even with his new skeletal structure. Map was perched on top of his back, ducking under leaves and branches, while holding himself onto the head of the Anthropomorphic Hunter, whose focus was on the reason of their chase.

Not so long ago, Sprint let out a neigh, which indicated his pain. Then, all of a sudden, his Energy erupted and with a loud bang, he started his mad sprint through the forest, accelerating up to his near-top speed under seconds. While the display was impressive, it closely rewarded the other two in an unnecessary heart attack. Not making any sense of Sprints actions, a sense of worry took hold of their emotions, gaining them a new emotion and promoting them to run after their most definitely evolving teammate.

And it was exactly the case, as Sprint felt something coming to the surface in any second. It was like an immense amount of pressure, wanting to erupt from inside him. His muscles tensed and trying to force him into a halt, his instincts told him to keep going until he reaches a place, where he won't create absolute destruction around himself. The only fear he sensed inside himself, was the fear of hurting his teammates. His own safety was not in danger, not even in the slightest. Aside from the agonizing pressure, he knew that the outcome will be fine, as long as he kept a distance between himself and his teammates.

Literally blasting out from between the woods, Sprint kept on running, higher and higher up the hill, wanting to reach its top. A foreign need of freedom clouded his mind, telling him to get ready for an unforgettable moment in his long life. He felt it. Something new will await him and it meant a promising future AND a useful feature as well...

Hunter came to a grinding halt after leaping out from inside the woods, getting a clear picture about Sprint, who was just reaching the top, green Energy swirling around him and gathering more from around himself. Map lowered himself behind Hunter's head, as much as he could, given how much he had grown so far.

And right there... the two witnessed the explosion, while Sprint experienced how it feels to suddenly receive the absolutely evolved form of his...

As the explosion of Energy came, so did his majestical wings, pupping out from his back. The jolt of incredibly painful sensation caused him to jump up and start flapping his wings furiously, doing his best to shake out the numbing aching from the two new appendages.
However, the lack of knowledge about flying urged him to stiffen his dark-grey wings, allowing him to safely glide down from that heigh he reached, after the Energy explosion launched him skyward. The trip down from the air, seemed to be just as painful, as the aching in his feathery appendages...
Tearing and snapping sounds in a row, his body morphed into a new one, losing his old shape. Instead, glancing down to his hooves through cringing eyes - which were larger than usual - , he astonishingly noted how they were shaped...

The words rang inside his mind...

Equestrian Pegasus...

The other two arrived by the top of the hill, looking down at the landing pegasus. They did a double check, if their fantasies were playing tricks on them, but however they looked, it didn't change the fact: Sprint evolved into a pegasus...
Further more, not just any kind of pegasus, but an Equestrian one on top of that. No A'nforian touch, only the wide limbs, toned body and large wings... so overall: Better...

His landing wasn't the most graceful one, with that stumble at the end, however, something shifted in his mind. He caught on what had just occurred moments ago and with that, his thoughts were started to be filled with images of maneuvers of flying moves. Picture after picture, he rapidly received the basics of proper flying methods, to the point, where he felt a migraine finding its place in his head. The last session of pain, living up for the saying: Learning at a cost...

An agonizing experience for the instant knowledge, yet one, which definitely worth it. Electrical sensation made his legs to buckle under his weight, as the received flying lessons got calculated inside his body. His heart rate increased dangerously, like the missing flying moments of his long life crashed down upon him in a second. Tingling sensation crawled up to the very tip of his wing feathers, the muscles' inside them literally feeling the high velocity from the 'past'.
Meanwhile, as the heart rate of his reached a threatening level, his blood flow affected the headache as well. Literally, he felt the knowledge carving itself into his mind and a vein pushed itself to the surface on his temple. It was a miracle he was still conscious and Sprint praised whatever was faith planning on his future, for letting him have his head still on and not exploded...

And then... numbness... blissful, painless numbness...

He had never experienced such a relief before, nor that peculiar feeling inside himself. Standing up slowly, afraid and alarmed for another series of pulsating pain or further evolving, he couldn't quite place this sensation anywhere. He simply felt highly comfortable, even though he just received a pair of new body parts...

Upon thinking about the new limbs, he looked back at them, finding their current limp position irritating. Putting an end to the unpleasant pulling in the base of his wings, he folded them against his sides, noting how easy it was to do. Like he had it inside him ever since he has been alive...

Meanwhile, on top of the hill and looking down at his teammate, Hunter picked up the oncoming of a certain random pegasus, who was trotting up the hill towards them. The Anthropomorphic gladly noted that his senses were just as sharp, if not better than before. He even predicted correctly the incoming projectiles from behind, as Pyromancer threw the garnered clothes onto his back, carelessly flopping himself onto the ground next to them.

''Sup? Wait, I know the answer. US!'' He faked-laughed at his own joke, taking an oblivious glance around. ''And where's the Last of Us?''

While Hunter put on the comfortable underwear and trouser, pushing them low enough for his tail, but high enough to allow his hands to be free and not to be occupied by holding them up, he kept his gaze fixed on the pegasus down the hill. He patiently waited until the other pegasus next to him, finally picks up on what was going on a little lower than their heigh. To his bad luck, said pegasus wasn't one to accept such passivity...

''English, mother bucker, do you speak it?'' He received only the silence of the night. ''Ignore me one more bucking time, I dare you, I dare you, I double dared you mother humper!'' He kept on going, coming up with new ways to get his point through, all the while getting closer to Hunter's ears.

The poor half-cat half-humanoid - to his misfortune - realized there, that his hearing improved as well...

His unpleasant revelation was followed by a question, then a lick on his ears. ''You hear me? Bleagh.''

It was enough and Hunter took hold of his head, the claws enveloping the whole top of the pegasus' head and forcing it to be turned towards the second pegasus at the scene, who was busy shrugging his shoulders and testing his body parts. Pyromancer stared, failing at finding a proper logical point to the now pony-like Sprint, who was also a pegasus all of a sudden. He only spent just a good twenty or more minutes away and that three already did something unbelievable...

''Cool...'' The only thing the pegasus said, before bolting towards Sprint. ''Heeeeyyyyy~!''

Sprint paid zero attention to him, looking troubled by his new appendages. Every time he started moving them, his mind immediately caught up on what he was doing, promoting him to shut down the wing movement. He had the moves, the methods, the required strength and speed, and in an overall, the basics. However, his current activity seemed too out of ordinary for his taste, thus ending his attempts at staying air-born for more than a few seconds...

''Awww, I thought we could fwy together like fwends...''

Put on an acting pout on his face, Pyromancer, crossing his hooves for extra effect...

And that certain effect was for making Sprint hate faith for leaving him alive with the random pony...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

An awkward silence dominated the air between Luna and Traveler. The two were idly floating around in the water, the waves merely washing away the uncalled situation's stress. For the Horseman, it was only of the irritation which prevented him from absolute relaxation, leaving him oblivious to... embarrassing matters inside the Night Princess' head.

She couldn't help, but hear the words of her alternate self, haunting her thoughts for who knows how long now. It wasn't just once, when she found herself fantasizing, on top of that. Images of him, treating her in a way she had never been treated before... she shivered upon the idea and she quickly tried distracting herself.

''You said this Avatar have been with various creatures. What kind of creatures do you prefer to be with?'' She asked him out of curiosity, only later realizing the subject of the question. This brought her a sudden thought, that maybe, Lusty Luna was not an alternate version of her, but a part of her? Her own self, who had been locked away deep inside her very being and somehow got called upon to this Dream World, only to distract her?

It was a possibility, but why did she want to blame somepony else for this, was a mystery for her...

''I heard rumors about his interest, yes. Apparently, he claims that Elves are to his fancy and a personal favorite for him... which is confounding, if I take the other rumors into account: He does not feel, lacks emotions and his actions are done without the blink from his eyes, so bed activities cannot bring pleasure for him. Honestly, I cannot decide if the rumors are true or not...'' He shook his head lightly, not one to splash water to the sides in such a peaceful moment. He did not realize, but the question distracted him from the rage inside him enough, to welcome the rocking of the waves and calm his nerves.

Equestria's Energy was a pain to get used to... both mentally and physically...

''As for the question... well, Anthropomorphics and Elves, the same as with Balance... however, I've been with Humanoids mostly, with normal skin. Not as much as that beast man, but enough times... even if I am thousands of years old. My A'nforian life and his are entirely different, you see. While I'm a free Spirit, he is an unknown creature, bound to an unfair faith... another reason why I cannot stay mad at him, in case you were wondering... Hmm...'' He lazily looked over the Princess, raising an eyebrow. ''Why do you ask?''

''It just flew through my head and what do you know, I ask it out loud. Odd, isn't it?'' Luna surprised herself, by managing to kill out the nervousness in her voice. A close call, it was and only this time, she was glad for the stubborn Energy in Equestria, for bringing 'misery' upon Traveler. At this moment, she highly preferred him in this state, not working on one-hundred percent...

A wave of rippling water went through the two, avoiding their attention...

''Ah-am, I understand.'' Traveler replied tiredly and sighed. ''I sense the intermittent entering and exiting from this disturbed state of mine. Right now, I would say, I'm out... but I'm not sure. However I will react to something or whatever I will say... I am truly sorry, in advance.''

Luna smiled at him, shaking her head. ''Hmhm, I understand Traveler and do not worry. You are doing great, believe me.'' Her words were sincere, truly seeing the Horseman as a strong individual. ''I can only mourn for that Equestria, where The Balance is as of right now.'' She half-joked, planting her gaze on the waves, whilst in her imagination, she pictured the chaos in a different Equestria.

She thanked the Creator, for bringing The Traveling Horseman into their Equestria, no matter how much she could relate to the Avatar...

Traveler tilted his head, frowning. ''Hmm... I have to disagree on that one. I doubt he ever got the effect of the Elements of Harmony, nor the Power of Love. On top of that, he can only fake his emotions, not mean any of them. I suspect he is doing way better than me.''

''Do you think he had any difficulties adjusting to the Equestrian society? Considering his methods, I can easily see him fleeing from the wrath of my sister.'' Luna pointed out, definitely having a low opinion about The Avatar.

Traveler chuckled, realizing he had forgot to mention a little detail about the target of their topic. ''Funny you mention your sister. You see, she was the one, who saved young Balance's life-''

An ear bleeding thunder interrupted the Spirit...

Traveler jumped up from the shallow water, activating his Primary Armor. His Spell only covered up certain body parts of him properly, while the others remained unprotected. The Night Princess hopped up into the air, hovering in one place, with a charged up horn, ready to engage in battle. The two looked around in wild confusion, working on finding the source of the sudden bang.

The silence was disturbed, as the great ocean slowly lost its size...

In the distance, the water was flowing down to an endless void, disappearing from the constructed Dream World. Darkness took up the 'cleared' up space, consuming up the environment. Like a wall of shadows, everything was falling apart, the once serene night taking a frightening turn.

''What the Hell is going on?!'' Traveler shouted over to Luna, hoping that she may has any solution to this disaster. He was everything, but not capable of handling a reality, nor in the shape of doing magical activities.

''The Dream World is falling apart! Somepony interfered with our connection!'' She shouted back, the sound of the falling water getting louder from the distance.

The rumbling could be heard from every direction, as the earthquake shook the water, ground an the mentally, physically and literally unstable Spirit...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Sprint started to get the impression from life, that fate was playing a cruel joke on him...

First, he had to suffer through his evolving process, never ever feeling such pain before. Then when he thought no more harm will be delivered to him and he could experiment with his new wings, a flaming pegasus happened, telling him annoying encouragements. While he got over it and managed to ignore the irritating externalities, at last, he got the short chance to try out his new ability and take advantage of this possibility. He failed many times, however, he did not give up on staying air-born for more than a few seconds. The single thought of flying pumped his mood to keep trying, bringing joy finally to the poor stallion...

All of this was crushed, just like the mountains in the distance, when all Hell broke out...

Now, the foursome were running for their lives, away from the collapsing world's uncalled wrath. While Pyromancer crashed through branches, spitting out hoof-ful of leaves from his mouth, all of them landing on the right side of Sprint - for the poor stallions dismay - he was running on the left side of Pyromancer. The new pegasus did not dare to take off, in fear he might crash and be consumed by the unknown force behind them. However, this did not stop him from using the feathery appendages to propel himself in additional help.

Map, in the same way as before, was perched on top of Hunter's back, holding onto his head. However, the wild Anthropomorphic ever so slowly felt his teammate getting heavier and heavier and soon, Hunter was unsure about Map's position on his back. It was like four legs were on his back, growing larger by the time they spent on catching up with the others. Hunter followed the trail of broken and damaged branches and trees, kicking up the dirt behind himself.

His steps were getting heavy, running with an ever growing eagle on his back started to become embarrassingly exhausting. Map was just an eagle, how heavy could he be? Hunter could only keep pushing his strength, the only sound reaching his ears were the heavy thumps of his strained sprinting and grunts.

Then... there was the moment of relief and silence...

Just as he was about to fall over from his lost balance, instead of hitting the ground, he hit nothing. Thin air, all around him, as he wildly tried to grasp onto something. The blurry vision from the fatigue was gone and he dared to take a glance downwards, risking getting his head hit terribly, if the potential fall was just delayed for a reason...

The ground below him gained distance...

Talons junked him upwards, from under his arms and he hang onto a pair of claws in the air, with a blanked mind...

The source of his recovery was the blood-curling scream, emitted from his evolved teammate...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Here we are and get ready for calling back the other two, man!'' Upon hearing Pyromancer's call, Traveler and Luna turned their heads towards the source of his sound.

Traveler, who has completely forgot about his companions, had a sudden rush of grief. Horror plastered over his features, as he realized his lacking ability to dismiss Sprint, who just arrived close to them in the water. Worry took hold of his emotions and he felt his heartbeat increasing, as pictures of his hurt friends popped up before him repeatedly. He may needed some support, but causing misery or in the worst case scenario, losing his closest company, whom had grown on him tightly, was certainly not on his wish list. He took the pain, instead of his best friends. It was a golden rule for him...

''Hunter! Map!'' He cried out, sounding desperate.

''Hold on!'' Luna screamed through the harsh wind, which have started picking up on its power.

''Where are they?!'' Traveler took hold of Pyromancer's shoulders, his eyes wide and in full panic.

The flame pegasus was cut off, when a bird-like screech sounded off from between the woods, followed by a loud growl from a feral animal friend. A momentary wave of relief washed through the Horseman, before he spotted the two animal approaching... in mid-air...

''Wha- whooOAAAH!'' Was all he could let out, before the tornado picked him up and carried him towards the stars.

Everyone else followed suit, either screaming constantly or letting out something else. Sprint tried taking control over his afloat, which resulted in a stomach-tumbling series of flips, spins and uncontrollable laughter from a certain blue pegasus. Said pegasus, listening to the Angel of the Night's advice, held onto a certain part of her, which - to his delight - she did not notice. Luna could only stare forward, - not back, where the recently got laid Pyromancer was hanging onto her flanks - in order to maintain her balancing, while she was approaching the very top of the tornado.

Map - even with his great wing muscles - couldn't help, but give into the strong force of the air. The violent tornado ripped Hunter out from his claw's grasp, resulting in a yelp from the half-man, half-cat-like Spirit. The two followed suit after the other four, getting quickly closer to the blinding light by the end of the tornado.

''We're close now!'' Shouted back Luna, attempting to calm the others down.

''Oh, I surely am.'' Nodded to himself Pyromancer, taking in the firm texture and the beauty of the two half-moons in front of him.

''WHOOOAAAAH!'' Traveler shouted, confounded and disoriented from all the hectic moments all of a sudden.

Then... they reached the Light...

The exit... from the Dream World...

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Anthropomorphics: A'nforian race, whose appearance are between a certain kind of animal and a Humanoid. Half-animal, half-Humanoid, if you will. They can have fur, wings, horns, non-Humanoid face features, hands, feet and so on. As long as they had a touch of animal appearance, they were considered as Anthropomorphics or Anthro, for short...

***

Healing: Healing up the wounds slowly, but surely.
It is usually used in the form of an Ability, but as a Spell, it is less distracting. There is no numbing feature in the vanilla Healing, so the process could be painful. (Broken bone snaps itself back to place and gets healed up. Only painful until the healing is done and only after that, it is still aching on the spot.) Only other kinds of Restoration Techniques have some Side Effect, which numbs the spot, so the healing won't be painful.

ATTENTION: Every Restoration could only make the wound, bruise or any kind of visible damage to disappear and leave no pain behind itself, if the taken damage gets tended to quickly. (EXAMPLE: A two years old cut will remain slightly visible, but the pain will be gone, if you haven't got used to it already.) (EXAMPLE: Broken leg won't receive any healing for a long time, then you will be limp for the rest of your life or at least will be walking strangle and without any pain.)

Healing Spell: You charge it up and make sure that it will have enough Energy in it and you won't get interrupted. If you didn't have enough Energy for the full healing, then you have to cast the Spell again, repeating the process until you are done or you got the needed Energy in one go.

Healing Ability: You are losing Energy from the core and not from your hands, where you had collected the Energy from the core. You won't have to cast it, only focus on sending the Energy into the Healing. However, the pain could make you lose your focus, so in this case, a Spell is much easier, but unstable and hardly predictable...

Author's Note

Now that is what I call a properly written chapter. Shit, I still can't believe how I wrote the older chapters. All of them were careless and just badly written. I mean, you don't want to hear a teenager telling a story and explaining things with the same words and sentences like: ''Just because I fucking feel like it and that I'm breaking the forth-wall, no matter how overused it is''
No... just no. THIS right here, is how I write today and this is the right writing style. It may effect the comedy, but awkward moments will replace those 'comical' moments... I'm not a funny guy...

It's the 10th of August... remember this date!

Now, I hope you actually enjoyed the story now, given the level of description and BELIEVABLE interaction between Luna and Traveler... I can only keep bashing myself for writing everything poorly...
Let me know what you think of this writing style. Did you like how I explained the magical parts? What do you think of the characters now, having ACTUAL personalities? Communicate me, please, for I receive little feedback!

Have a wonderful night!

Epilogue

The six regained consciousness in a single moment, forcibly getting back to awareness. The lucid dreaming had no effect what so ever, resulting in a sudden jolt of awakening from the hours of slumber. Traveler, having his companions Summoned out from his runes, he didn't see the swirling Energy, reconstructing the evolved animals to the far side of the cave.

Pyromancer was greeted with the same rounded thing before him. ''Hmm, yehheass- WHOAAA!'' And to his bad luck, he got interrupted by a magical force, sending him flying away from that ass...

''Luna, are you alright? We have been searching for you two quite some time now.'' The Night Princess shook out the dizziness from her head, the blurry dots blocking her view getting washed away. Looking down at the ever so slowly relaxing Traveler, she sighed in relief, before turning around to the sweet sound source.

Before her, The Sun Princess stood, a touch of worry slowly shifting into a relived smile, upon spotting her sister's reassuring expression. Behind the snow-white Alicorn, The Elements of Harmony waited by the entrance, their expressions changing to one of delight to see everyone else in good shape. Traveler Spike was leaning against the cave walls, keeping an outlook to the wild life in the forest, as the night rustled up the animals' from their sleep.

Luna felt touched, as she looked over the supporting ponies before her. Nodding in delight, she answered. ''I am fine, sister and I know for a fact that Traveler too. And he realized the issue with himself on his own. Further explanations will be not needed, I can assure you.'' Taking a quick and sneaky glance at the slowly standing up Horseman, she whispered to her sister. ''I've garnered information about his past. I can take care of him alone, I just needs some more time with him.''

Celestia's smile expanded, however, she made sure to not raise suspicious. ''I'm proud of you, Luna. I shall not interfere with your methods, if you do not require help.''

Luna forced down a giggle. ''Trust me, Tia... he needs support, not me.''

''I'm glad to hear that.'' Nodded in joy the older sister, before dismissing her sudden fanatical expression and changing back to her trademark motherly-smile. Clearing her throat, she resumed speaking in normal voice. ''Traveling Horseman, we would like you to accompany us in Canterlot. We have much to discuss and we believe you will find our conversation most helpful.''

Traveler, baffled by the hospitality and the lack of rush in the real world, he hesitantly nodded. ''O-of course.''

Celestia pressed on. ''Is everything truly alright?''

Traveler rubbed his eyes and shook his head a few times, getting rid of the previous panic from seconds ago. ''Yes, yes... only a little shaken up.'' He inhaled slowly and in relaxation, he let it all out. ''Other than this little adventure...'' He opened his eyes, smiling a little. ''... yes, everything is alright and will be.''

''Uh, I don't think so, look!'' Rainbow Dash spoke up, pointing a hoof towards the Summoned companions of Traveler.

Every present soul turned their attention towards the trio of evolved animals, noting the highly visible changes in complete astonishment...

The first thing they noticed, was the familiarly looking griffon, standing respectfully in the middle and up front. His head reminded the others about a certain eagle, whose upper-beak was black and the lower-beak remained the same grey colored. Black feathers covered the whole head and chest; on the top of the head, they were standing upwards, like he was constantly flying against the winds and the velocity was forcing the feathers backwards. At certain points on a few of his feathers on the head, crimson flake feathers picking up the attention.
On the front of his chest, the mark from his belonging rune - the frame of an eagle's head with the wings on the side - , was presented as a crimson war-paint, just like every other griffon's specific symbol.
From his eyelids, crawling all the way to the side of his beak, dark-purple line adored his features. The same purple color surrounded his crimson irises, acting as a rim on the outer layer of his eyes.
Like roughly shaped goggles, his eyes were surrounded with grey fur, drawing the attention to his face, which appeared to be like a mask, with that 'window' for his sight.

No matter how threateningly his gaze appeared to be, the blank expression gave the impression of a loyal and honorable griffon, who carried nothing, but respect in his heart and with lacking satisfaction in hurting others. An intelligent stare, directed towards the Horseman.

Grey fur covered his well-toned body and the muscles talked about the great strength of his, added to his excellent knowledge. Just like his whole body, his tail remained firmly in one place, the tip of it having his dark-purple color from his higher areas.
Given the vanilla dark of his natural colors and the dominated purple color, his claws had a shade of really dark-blue, standing alone in his overall frame.

Sprint took one last glance over to the six element, before extending his wings for presentation. He too received the same reaction, like Map did a second ago.

''Hoh, boy.'' Applejack let out, suddenly feeling uncomfortable from the much more appealing look on Sprint.

''Agreed.'' Gasped Rarity, putting a hoof before her agape mouth.

Hunter decided to stand up as well, which resulted in making the ponies and one Spirit's eyes to go wider than ever. He brushed off any probable dust from the trousers, before straightening his back completely, showing the impossible change of his skeletal structure.

''Oh... my...'' Fluttershy said silently, not believing in her own eyes. The once animal, who she took care about was now something completely else, suddenly.

''That is...'' Rainbow had the word on the very end of her tongue, but couldn't say it. She too was speechless...

The two stepped beside their griffon teammate, Hunter on the right and Sprint on the left, looking much more intelligent than a simple animal, like they used to be. The three stood strong as one effective team, clearly showing how different species could be in one alliance.

''Well, this is...'' Luna had the same issues like Rainbow Dash, having trouble at expressing herself at that current moment.

''Unexpected.'' Celestia finished for her sister, staring at the three with wildly racing thoughts.

Twilight blinked a few times, readjusted her composure and started. ''Are they...?''

''Evolved.'' Traveler finished her sentence, confirming her prediction at the same time.

Then the night's most incredible moment arrived...

''Hello Master.''

The End?

The End?

My first story which I've ever finished and wrote it in a long length... I will miss it, because this was part of my Universe...

Was...

Is..

And will be!

I am planning on starting the Sequel and will create a new chapter for that to pick up all of your attentions. But let me start with something else first...

I started out this story with too little knowledge and people only picked up on, because of the idea. Through throwing out chapters, I learned to stay patient and ignore the urging calls from the readers. (See the first chapters as examples.)
My grammar HIGHLY improved over this story and also learned that I should re-read what I had written down. This brought me a new way to enjoy my own stories, for I love re-reading them with epic voices and in a roleplaying manner.

My downfall was when I included Balance and his Equestria in the story... I became one of those, who write the cliche HIEs and only want to satisfy themselves aiming for the epic too much. However, I managed to pull myself out from this hole... but slightly, only. I started to get new ideas for the Balance Universe and thus, I turned Traveler into one of a tragic past-carrying character. It was NOT the original plan... this story was supposed to concentrate on a diplomatic topic, where Traveler tells about his adventures in beautiful places, then later on, get to know Equestria and the land after Equestria's borders. My plan was to write down many landscape, because I love that and amaze the readers with beauty and well written moments, with epic music added to it.

But it didn't turn out as such, for I got carried away with this possibility to merge traveler into the Balance lore and Universe. People liked the awkward moments, so kept on making them. The story took a turn in the end and went into a sense of drama tale, while I enjoyed the nostalgia from the Balance included parts. Yes, i did manage to finish up a part from his story, through Traveler... but the main enjoyment factor was lacking.

After the Balance parts... I was lost and realized that I need time and a good way to pull this story out from the downfall. See the rating of the story? You readers were reading a crap work, yet you all remained silent... and I blindly lived in the oblivious state, that I was a good author...

I left this story, saying that it was okay and has enough likes. Instead, I concentrated on Balance's story, because it was in a negative state... and so, i started rewriting it and mentioned Traveler with Balance in that story...

My skills improved and I learned what is important in a story...

Characterization, pacing, description, beautifully written down paragraphs and telling a story in a way, which makes the reader intrigued. In other words, not showing the immature part of myself and instead, strive for an epic and wise story telling way. I learned to be more patient with the story and to not go with the flow. Knowing well what happens next and how I want. Not just picturing it with words, but in my head, like I'm watching a movie!

However... these achievements wouldn't have been possible to be reached, if not for the false positivity of this story. For seeing that so many fake encouragement... I kept going blindly and eventually... learned everything from experience...

Now, it's my birthday today... the 10th of August and pardon me if if something goes wrong, for I am drunk, that is for sure. I am sixteen today, a teenager, who believes he achieved great knowledge from the world and turned into an adult sooner than he should. Hardship, depression and many more obstacles, in connection with the harsh life in Hungary. I have become more than my generation, who are worthless children inside oversized bodies...

And I am proud to say, I did it...

For maintaining this and actually proving myself as such, I shall end this story. For today, it is my birthday and a milestone has been reached. The birthday celebrations are unlikely compared to the average 'birthday parties' , so do not think I am weird for giving you the last chapters of this story as a present.

I hope you enjoyed the story, even though the derpy start and intermittent downfalls of mine. It was a good learning process with you all and I cannot thank you enough for keeping my spirit in check... even if I did NOT deserve those likes and favorites...

That is why I shall present you the Sequel!

Now, the few changes will be notable in this said sequel. The rating of the story, writing style (Because let's face it, I will change, so will my writing style, as I get better and better.) , direction of the story and - as you just saw it - the characters.
I have big plans for the future outlook of the story...

And yes, Balance (More like the fifteen-sixteen years old Balance...) will be mentioned, but as the wrong example for Traveler. I won't tell anymore about why, because I would spoil the plans. And don't worry, in Balance's story, I mentioned Traveler in the name of Balance, so they are equal now... just like how Balance likes it to be...

More explanation about Techniques and happenings in the Balance Universe and we will get to know the hectic life of the three recently-turned animals, who are now Spirits...

I will also need your help, dear readers...

A cover art will be required from my part. I thought about showing our main characters in their new forms, with expressions, which will show their slowly developing personalities. Further details would be told in a PM, so if you are interested in the story - surprisingly - , then contact me and get into the details like there is no tomorrow...

So, with my pathetic weakness shown to you all, by asking for help, I could only say one thing...

Stay tuned for The Traveling Horseman : The Sequel!

And if it haven't picked up your interest, then I can assure you, that I will EARN the positive feedback from you all and not receive it out of pitying the young author...

Not convinced, yet? Well, how about I say...

... I have a third story planned for Traveler, where things get into serious?

I shall leave you with this 'kickstart' and let you wait until the sequel, which will be started in the future and you all get a link to it in the next and final chapter...

Thank you for all the support, help, encouragement and enthusiasm, dear readers...

My deepest gratitude for all of you...

I hope we will see you each other soon...

Nightmare Night _ All Souls' Day + Some Info (READ IT)

I couldn't work on the next chapter tomorrow.

Here's why: ----> Why You No Work?!

And here's a good background music for our hero, Traveler:

That's how I imagined Sprint, but with green mane and glowing green eyes:

How I imagined his wild cat, but if they have to be stealthy, the flames and glowing disappears:

His 'claws'. But imagine them more curved, so he can use it to climb and grab:

A huge acid tree helped me... what?

If you haven't seen my last message, then here's it, in a nutshell:

I won the basketball competition at school, arrive home late, miss season three's first episode. Berserker mode activate, go outside, run 8 km.

And here's what happened:

Arrive home, see comment, that gives me a link to a video. Guess what was that video... SEASON 3 EPISODE ONE AND TWO!

Now I can continue with the story without problem. Thanks to a huge, acid tree. YOU are awesome! My day turned out pretty well. Really thank you. You... a huge... acid... tree. Don't look at me like that! That tree is sexy... and it's acid, so it's 20% cooler...

Expect a big adventure soon.

I have a really good idea. And this time, I'm not gonna spoiler it.

And if you all excuse me... I have one last thing to do. Show that tree, how thankful I am...

So now...
