"Alright, I Have the Human Souls now. Time to focus my magic into making a rift." Sans Muttered to himself.

"I hope there wont be human's there, but here's to hoping" Sans said Jokingly.

The Short Skeleton focused his magic and the souls to make the rift. It looked like a purple blueish rectangle. Looking through the portal he can see a highly dense forest with a huge broken castle. Intrigued he walked through the portal which closed behind him.

"So this is the surface?"

"Wasn’t expecting it to be so... colourful" Sans looked at the grass and sky.

His gaze looked towards the castle. Standing big and tall, it made him feel so small. He looked behind him, seeing a town in the distance. Deciding to go check out the local town, Sans trudged through the forest. He heard shuffling in the bushes behind him. Whipping around, he saw nothing. It didn’t help that there were no lights shining in the dense forest. Not even the sunlight got through. With a grunt, Sans wiped the dust off his sleeves and continued his march. After walking for 15 minutes he saw the town up ahead.

Sans, hearing a growl, turned around. Before him stood a large wood-like dog, which he decided to kill for EXP.

"I know I'm made of bones, but I didn't expect a pup like you to try to fight me." sans grinned.

The beast ran towards Sans, but then stopped. Looking down, it saw its right paw had been torn off. Looking up, it didn't see the creature that did it.

"Hey Doggy!"

The beast turned around to see the creature holding it's missing limb.

"Missing something?" Sans grinned sadistically.

Now frustrated, the now disabled beast tried its luck on a lucky hit. With a powerful leap, it pounced on the creature that tore its paw off, only to stop in confusion. The creature was right there, just looking down at it. The bone-y being before the poor wooden mutt just stared down at him. Like an angry god, staring down at a lowly bug with a malicious grin across his face.

"Well it was nice playing with you, but I got to see the town." Sans's grin faded.

With sans now bored, he killed the wooden creature by ripping it's head off.

"Now where were we, Ah the town!" Sans walked towards the town.

On the way there he saw a cottage. His curiosity piqued, he snuck towards the home. Sans heard singing within, so, he went towards one of the windows and peaked inside. What he saw in the cottage was a lemon coloured horse. Her, what he thought was her hair, was a bubble gum pink mane. Sans thought she was just a regular horse, until he saw wings. He was even more curious, and a bit confused. He had never truly seen a horse before, but he did read on the creatures when he was in his room. Though, he never read about them having wings.

"Here you go Mr fox." Fluttershy Cheerly said.

A bunny tugged on her tail. Confused, Fluttershy looked down at the small white bunny.

"What's wrong angel?" Fluttershy, with caring but worriedly eyes, looked at her little bunny friend.

The bunny pointed at the window. Fluttershy was confused, agreed, looking at the window where the skeleton was.

"The window? What's wrong with the wind- win- window.. AHH!" Fluttershy screamed as loud as she could.

Fluttershy ran out the door and into ponyville. She ran like a bat out of Tartarus towards Golden Oak Library, where one of her best friends resided.

She knocked on the door of the oak library frantically, desperately trying to get inside as fast as possible. Twilight Sparkle, the element of magic, opened the door.

"Oh? Fluttershy? What are you doing here and why are you scared? Is something the matter?" Twilight worried for her friend asked.

Twilight looked down at her terrified friend. Deciding to let the shy pegasus into her house, Fluttershy and Twilight walked to the living room with Twilight going into her kitchen to prepare some tea.

"So, What's wrong" Twilight asked her friend.

Fluttershy still looked terrified.

"W- Well I saw a creature i’ve never seen before. It was staring at me through the window. I got scared and ran here, because I thought since you know a lot of things, you might tell me what it is?" Fluttershy looked from her hooves to her worried friend.

Twilight pondered that. Fluttershy is an animal expert, so why did she come to her?

"Alright Fluttershy, tell me what the creature looked like." Twilight said.

"Well, it had a hood on, and from what I saw, its eye's were white. I saw a bit of its face too. It looked fully white" Fluttershy responded.

Twilight looked through her books trying to find what Fluttershy described. After 30 minutes of looking around, Twilight was left confused. Going off of what her friend told her, she could not find any description matching the one of the creature Fluttershy encountered.

"I'm sorry, Fluttershy. I didn't find anything referencing the creature you described. Are you sure you didn't see a pony, or one of your animals?" Twilight asked with a questioning look.

"I'm Sure! I saw it! You have to believe me, Twilight!” Fluttershy begged.

"Look, I'm sure you just hallucinated the creature. Just, try to get some res-" Twilight got cut off as they heard a scream outside.

Twilight and Fluttershy looked outside, only to see the creature Fluttershy described. Twilight quickly told Fluttershy to get the rest of there friends.

"Hey, YOU!" Twilight Shouted at the strange creature.

Twilight galloped towards the potential threat. Twilight, the student of Princess Celestia, had never, in her 26 years of living on Equus, seen a creature like this. Fluttershy's description on the creature was accurate. The creature looked tall. So tall, in fact, its height could very well rival Celestia.

"W- What are you doing here Monster!?" Twilight shouted with a stutter.

"Hm? Me? I'm just passing by this here town." Sans said while looking at the small lavender unicorn.

"Likely story!" a voice shouted from behind the unicorn.

Sans looked behind her and saw 5 ponies rushing towards them. A winged blue one with a rainbow mane and tail charged them with a bloodthirsty gaze. He saw an orange pony with blonde mane and tail next to her, who had a rope in her mouth. Next to her, was the yellow one he saw earlier, with a pink pony beside her. Now, this one was weird. She had a big grin on her face and was jumping up and down happily, ans if she was running on nothing but caffeine and sugar. And lastly, there was a white pony with a curly purple mane and tail. She held a scared, but disgusted look on her face.

"Who and what are ya?" The Orange one called out.

"My Name's not important. But, you can call me murder. And as for what I am, I am a monster" Sans calmly replied.

The 5 ponies gasped in shock hearing what the creature's name was. Rainbow Dash looked to her friends and back at the creature. Without a word or hesitation, the blue blur shot forward and tried kicking the monster. As soon as she got 4 feet from the creature, she was stopped in place. Confused, she looked at her friends. It was then, that she looked at her hooves. They were dark blue.

"WHAT DID YOU DO TO ME YOU, YOU FREAK?!” Rainbow Dash shouted, trying to get out of her capture’s grasp.

"Now, see, it's not nice to try and hurt people that you just met." Sans grinned to the blue pony as he prepared to attack, as she tried to attack him back, in an attempt to counter him. Sans, deciding quickly, threw the blue pony at a nearby building.

"Girls, try to capture him!" The lavender pony commanded.

All the pony's scattered like insects. All of them, except the blue one, the one that sans had thrown into the nearby building. The orange pony, lasso at the ready, threw it towards him. Sans dodged effortlessly, leaving an annoyed Applejack, upset that she had narrowly missing her intended target. Sans, deciding it was for the best, decided to flee, teleporting away.

"Darn it! That little varmint got away!" The orange pony exclaimed, annoyed that the creature got away.

Sans teleported to the forest, noting that this world is hostile, and that he should steer clear of that, or any village. Looking around he saw three sets of eyes staring him down through the pitch black abyss of the forest as though he were a mere chew toy.

"I killed one of you mutts. So, why do you choose to fight?" Sans said, with a disappointed look on his face.

Without a moment's notice, the three wood-like dog's charged at him. Two went off to his sides, while the leader ran towards him head. Sans decided to play with them for a bit, toying with the three wooden dogs as he dodged their attacks with ease. That is, until he got bored and in one move, burned one of them into ash. As its ashes fluttered down like ash from a volcano, or blackened snow, Sans ran towards the other beast. With his magic, he froze the poor mutt and in one fell swoop, the skeleton shot a bone out of the ground, impaling the wooden mutt, killing it instantly.

"Look at that. The sun is setting. I need to find some where to stay." Sans stated to the last of the wooden dogs.

The dog didn't listen, deciding to go for Sans's neck. Sans just stared at it as it tried in vain to attack him. Sans, in one go, let loose a bone from the ground, striking the dog. It was the same move that claimed the life of Sans’s dear brother.

"Alright, I warned you." Sans muttered to himself.

In an instant dog fell lifelessly to the ground. Sans could hear a thud and splinter of wood behind him as he trudged along, heading back the way he came from. 30 minutes later, he made it to the run down old castle that he first saw.

"Well, I guess I have to stay here for a while. It was a mistake going to that town. Perhaps they were scared of a creature they just met?" Sans thought, while walking towards the castle.

==================================================================================================
In Ponyville.

"Don't worry about that thing right now! We need to help Rainbow dash!" Twilight shouted to her friends as she rushed towards the still downed Rainbow Dash. “What kind of attack was that? Telekinesis?” Twilight asked herself. She knew she’d have to think on that later though.

Rarity looked towards twilight.

"Darling, are you sure you've never seen that THING, before?" Rarity asked, displeasure and disgust written on her face from her brief encounter with the skeleton.

Twilight, pondered that question. She had never seen a creature like that, not even in her books. She would have to ask the Princesses if she could use the Canterlot library. Maybe then she could find something that even remotely resembled the creature.

"I've never seen it before, Sorry Rari-" Twilight said before getting cut off by the hyperactive pink pony.

"WOWWIE, did you see that twilight?! That creature made rainbow fly, without Rainbow using her wings! She was all, “whoosh”! And I was all, “Woah”! Think he could make me fly too? Can he? Can he?" Pinkie exclaimed, excitement clear in her voice.

Twilight was the element of magic. She knew of all the creatures who could use magic, as well as the many different types of magic there were. But, she has never, in all her years, seen or heard of the type of magic that creature used. It didn't even need a horn to use its magic. She will definitely have to look into on how creatures without horns could cast spells.

"Hey, Rainbow Dash!, Hellooo rainbow to Equus?" Pinkie said, while standing next to Rainbow Dash, quickly and lightly, tapping her cheek.

Rainbow, hurt and bruised, looked up at the pink mare. She felt like she was about to explode from the pain. But, seeing the smile on Pinkie’s face could make even the most sick or injured pony happy. With a small, pained smile, Rainbow took Pinkie’s hoof and stood up. Pinkie stayed with Rainbow, helping her stand, as it was clear Rainbow was in too much pain to stand let alone walk on her own.

"Pinkie! Is Rainbow Dash ok?! Any bad injuries?" Twilight asked as she ran up to the two mares.

"Dashie’s okay. In some pain, but okay!" Pinkie exclaimed.

"Could you help and get my equipment from my house? It’s up stairs below my bed.” Twilight asked Pinkie.

"Okie doki loki!" Pinkie Said cheerfully, before bolting towards Twilight's house.

In a matter of seconds, Pinkie returned back to twilight, first aid kit in mouth. Twilight was a little shocked at her speed, but decided not to question it. Nopony really questions it. Just Pinkie being Pinkie.

Pinkie gave Twilight the first aid kit as Twilight quickly begun to patch Rainbow Dash up.

"Why don't we take Rainbow to the hospital?" Applejack asked.

"Because the hospital is closed. That creature, whatever it was, stirred up such big panic, even the Hospital barred its doors!" Twilight responded.

After patching up Rainbow, all of the six mares quickly rushed her into Golden Oaks so Rainbow could rest, discuss today’s events regarding that creature, and Twilight could contact Princess Celestia.
