The summit that Raven Crowe had dismissed herself from when the nobility and royalty recognized her began to wonder if they could persuade Equestrian to hand one of their own over. “Your majesties, the people of. Saddle Arabia would like to ask for a boon. We are requesting the head of Raven Crowe be given to us. As you know, she is known from the late war as a butcher. You’ve seen her carnage, will you give us our request?”

"You do have a valid point, As you so wish Raven Crowe is open game. Remember her capture is up to you, we will not risk our own to take her down." The whole Summit was in a celebratory mood now and orders were being issued out.

Meanwhile...

In Appaloosa Raven Crowe walked the streets many recognized from a few weeks ago but no one dared to call her out. As the day progressed news came that Saddle Arabia was offering forty million gold coins for information to where Raven Crowe was located. Some of the people sent word and others were set to make sure Raven stayed. Raven Crowe had that gut feeling that she had become prey. She quickly headed toward the city gates when the garrison - numbering sixty thousand stood in her way. "Move aside and no one dies today!" Her voice was clear as crystal but laced with a deadly poison and a hint of blood lust. The archers were given the order and Raven Crowe hit the cobblestone street with a thud and looked like a pin cushion. After five minutes she rose up and went on the attack. With just her sword Raven Crowe knew she had to to rely on her swordsmanship. The first soldier met her blade with a broadsword.

"Miss Raven Crowe lay your weapon down!"

"I am not that foolish and I can sense it from your faulty stance that you think I'd surrender." Raven after speaking her mind severed the soldier's legs off just above the knees. Grabbing the broadsword Raven attacked the next soldier. Appaloosa was setting up to see another blood bath when The officer in charge called the troops back.

"Raven Crowe....surrender and have you not realized that you raised your blade against Equestria?"

"I got discharged and my father is shamed and let me remind you that you attacked first! Dumb Cunt! I'll kill every last soldier here!"

"Soldiers! Kill her and bring me her head!" Raven took the broadsword and threw it like a knife and it managed to sever five heads mostly from the bodies they belonged to. Four hours passed and the sixty thousand lay mutilated and dismembered on the streets with blood and intrils strewn about. Raven heard steps running behind her. Raven picked up a spear and spun around; spin around and Raven had skewered a kid about twelve years old and Raven propped the spear against a wall and began to walk out of the city.

Raven Crowe screamed, "If I ever pass through here again....and you attack me, I'll lay waste to this shitty town!" Raven Crowe had just stepped beyond the gate when a crossbow bolt pierced her hip. Raven grimaced from the pain and tore the bolt out. Turning around Raven Crowe saw the crossbowman and she charged the archer and severed him from shoulder to hip. The townsfolk rushed her and the first few to reach her were cut down. Raven killed about eighty of them before she had the space to run. Raven managed to reach a nearby treeline and then took her crow form. Raven sat and watched the people trying to find her.

Raven Crowe let out a call and flew off; the townsfolk knew they lost their prize and went home to bury or cremate the dead.

Four Hours Later

Raven Crowe flew for four hours before landing in a small Yakistianian village. The Yaks looked at her and knew what she was worth. Raven Crowe knew this village because during the war her troops had passed by and had been run off. "Today I'll fulfill my oath to wipe all of you damned yaks from this village." Raven thought to herself. Raven drew her sword and the yaks knowing who she was and had been waiting for her return. Raven charged the yak host and began to slaughter them all. Raven tapped into her threstral speed and left the gatehouse garrison strewn about and disemboweled. When the sun rose for the dawn of the new day it was more red than usual due to the blood spilt the night before. Looking over her shoulder Raven saw the village of four thousand dead and scattered. Man, woman, and child lay dead below her and she set about to burn everything including the livestock.

"You want a villain Celestia...I'll give you a villain so horrific that Luna can't save you." Raven thought as she picked up a surviving kitten. Passing by a cast iron picket fence she skewered the kitten on it and lit it on fire. Raven Crowe walked from the city and into some nearby hills and thought to herself. "My mentor trained me to kill like this....he probably never knew how far I'd go! Hell, his training from the age of six to now my ripe age of twenty-five he programmed to massacre and enjoy this shit I leave behind." There were times when Raven Crowe would go over the list of all the people she killed; she had a habit of learning the names of her victims before she killed them. This particular day Raven Crowe sat in a small cave and recalled what the last yak had said to her before butchering them, "Please tell my cousin Yona I love her?" Raven knew that name. Raven Crowe froze as she realized that Yona was in Canterlot. drawing her dagger Raven began to cut her wrists and cursing her life. There was still a small tiny fragment of her conscious left alive in her.
