This is the first of the Shade Trilogy of stories and the most mature of the bunch. Still, even though this is the most mature of the trilogy, I hope you'll look past the tags and judge this based on it's own marits.

Additionally, this story takes place conically in the middle of my hamtaro crossover, specifically between Episodes 16 & 17 during season 3 of that story. While one could technically read that story without reading this one, there is context that only makes sense if you read this story.

Slade Johnson, known as the most deadly serial killer of all time, who has managed to avoid trial for murder because of a loophole, has been checkmated. Desperate, Slade initiates a plan he feels will spread his personal brand of despair throughout all of reality. And it involves many Friendship is Magic universes. Will the main six stop Slade's evil plan; or will reality fall into the utter despair of killing for the sake of killing? One thing's for certain: Slade won't be the same anymore.
