The demon known as Vlad was enjoying a nice walk by the lake of fire when he felt a tugging sensation at his mind. Going through that many times it didn't surprise him, but what did surprise him what what happened when he got there.
Vlad looked around and saw himself near 10 miniature horses, all of their hooves were raised in the air, and they were sitting behind desks as was he.
'Great just great. School for horses. What next? Horses that can talk?' He thought with a small snicker.
"Hey what are you laughing at?" Came an innocent voice from one of the horses. Vlad had a sharp intake of breath and thought, 'I am soooo going to kill Shaded.'
Vlad got up and walked to the door when he was stopped by another voice. "And where do you think you're going?" He looked and saw an older horse who he saw as the teacher.
"To go kill a friend." Vlad said with a laugh, and he continued to walk towards the door.
"No you're going to stay here and learn about science." The teacher said in a stern voice.
Vlad just glared and said, "Look. Don't keep me here and bad things won't happen. Or do you want everything in this room to explode in fire?" Vlad continued to walk towards the door then realized that he also looked like a pony child. "OH I am so going to kill him for this!!" He shouted as he bolted towards the door and out of the school.
'Alright then knowing Shaded he would go to the place with the nearest royal, and, possibly, have one of the royals fall in love with him.' He walked towards the obvious castle.
After he got to the castle he was stopped by two guards outside. "Halt." They said in unison.
"Sorry my name's actually Vlad." He said in a snarky voice, "And I'm here to see Shaded." and he tried to push past them.
"Halt or we will have to use force." They said in unison again.
"Yeah I'd like to see you try to stop a demon who has enough power to destroy an entire army." Vlad said as he froze them in place, and pushed pass them. Halfway down the hallway Vlad smelled something strange. "Is that... Bug? Eh probably an infestation problem." He walked into the throne room disrupting an argument.
"Alright, Where the FUCK is Shaded?!" Vlad shouted, looking around he saw the Black Knight from Monty Python and the Holy Grail. "Shaded!" He ran right up to him and hit him across the face so hard Shaded flew backwards into the wall. "That's what you get for turning me into this! Now what the FUCK do you want!"
"First off, OW! Second off, what's the password?" Shaded said. After a few encounters with some people claiming to be demons he entrusted a different password to each demon so he knew that it was them.
Vlad gave him an 'Are you serious?' face and said, "On second thought, let's not go to Camelot. It's a silly place." After Vlad said that he cracked a grin and Shaded burst out laughing.
"Yeah that was the password." Shaded said after he was done laughing. "Why are you in the body of a foal?"
"I don't fucking know. I was hoping you would tell me. Only you or your father can summon me since they know my full name." Vlad said annoyed.
"Well Vlad I can't tell you why your in that body, and I didn't summon you." Shaded said.
Vlad just sighed. "Well the only way you can summon a demon is if you say his/her name out loud three times."
"I don't know, Vlad, who brought you here, but you can help me!" The ending he said excitedly.
"Um I'd rather not." Vlad said nervously.
"C'mon it'll be fun." Shaded said completely ignoring the nervousness in Vlad's tone.
"No. Remember what happened last time? Besides I can't stay in this body. It'll probably die before we can do anything... 'fun.'" Vlad said still nervous.
"Fine then. Use your real body." Shaded said.
Vlad just sighed and said, "No way I'm getting out of this am I?"
"Nope." Shaded said still excited.
Vlad just sighed again. "Fine let me carefully take this body off. Oh and to anybody who wants to see me go to my normal state. I advise not to." Vlad was standing stock still, but in his mind he was gathering energy to get out. Only Shaded could feel it and he smiled with glee knowing that Vlad wouldn't harm the body when he said he would carefully take it off.
After a few minutes nothing happened until there was a flash of light blinding everybody in the room. When the light went away what they saw made them gasp. Standing where the foal used to be was a man who looked almost like Shaded. Vlad now wore armor that was blood red. He was wearing a crown on his head with five large pearls ringing above his forehead. He had black hair that went down to his shoulders and a great-sword strapped to his back. The foal was in the corner asleep and a few medical ponies went to see if anything was wrong.
One of the mares, frightened by his sudden appearance asked in a shaky voice, "Wwho are you?"
Vlad just smiled and introduced himself, "I am Vlad III, Prince of Wallachia, otherwise known as Vlad the Impaler or the First Count Dracula." He had a slight accent which they could hear easily.
Princess Luna was brave enough to ask a question that was on all of their minds except for Shaded and Vlad, "Why do they call you The Impaler?"
Vlad just smiled, and started to explain, "I am called Vlad the Impaler because of what I did to people who opposed me. If they were still alive I would have a large wooden stake and... Wait it would be better to show it." Shaded nodded and snapped his fingers, a gel dummy was on the ground.
"Alright so this gel represents the human skin and muscles. You can test any weapon on this to see how effective it is." Shaded explained.
"Perfect." Vlad said as he snapped his fingers and a wooden stake, over six feet long, appeared in his hands, "Now what I would do is I would take a wooden stake much like this one. I would lay the victim down, normally having some of my men hold them down. I would put it between their legs and push the stake," Vlad grunted with effort as he pushed it through the skin of the gel dummy, "like so and then I would put them outside my kingdom to make it a warning to each of my enemies that this is what would happen if they came attacking my land."
Vlad grabbed the bottom of the wooden stake, with the dummy still on it, and lifted it up and slammed it into the ground burying the stake into the ground. He turned to the crowd who had turned green from the violence, he smiled and said, "That is where The Impaler came from. Oh and also there were some mind readers in my world so please stop trying to enter my mind. The last time someone did that I had their hats nailed to their heads with carpenter nails. Those are about.. What? Five.. Six inches. About six inches went straight into their skulls." He leveled a glare a Celestia who gasped as his mind filled with thought of the two mind readers with carpenter nails going straight through there skulls.
"Oh and Shaded." Vlad said.
"Yeah, Vlad?" Shaded asked.
"I thought that you would need more of that oil so here." Vlad reached into his pocket and pulled out a bottle of black liquid. Then he said with a smile, "You always run out of it. Also you left your Pan Flute back in the other world."
Shaded grabbed both items and said, "Thanks Vlad. I can't believe I forgot my Pan Flute." Shaded then took off his helmet and started to play.

After the song ended everyone in the room, except for Vlad, was in shocked silence. Vlad just smiled and said, "You remembered."
"Of course I did! It was the first instrument I learned how to play." Shaded said annoyed.
Realizing that everybody else was still silent, Shaded whispered to Vlad, "I think I broke them."
Vlad just laughed and said, "Well you do have that affect on people. Ponies are not excluded."
"How did you two meet?" Luna asked.
"Oh well I was sentenced to hell, or Tartarus as you would call it, I was given two choices. One was to burn forever in the Lake of Fire, and the other was to be like a servant to the leader's son. His son was Shaded. Yeah now that I think about it I would rather go back to the Lake of Fire, but the contract was binding." Vlad explained.
Shaded glared at him. "Seriously? You just had to say my dad was in charge of Tartarus?" He said.
Vlad said, "Yes and to explain WHY I wanted to take back the deal was because of all the stuff he goes through in each world. Last world we were in we were chased down by bandits and were made pincushions for arrows."
"No that was the second to last world. The LAST world we went to we were tortured until we confessed for something we didn't do." Shaded said.
"Oh yes that's right. The Iron Maidens were a nice touch. Right next to the medieval torture racks." Vlad said completely forgetting they were in the audience of some already sick ponies.
"Yeah that was a nice touch, but not like the mental torture. That sucked so much. Seriously Sleep Deprivation? That was the worse. It just wears at you mind followed with endless physical torture, that is just the worse." Shaded said.
Then Vlad added, almost sadly, "Yeah, but not as much as that other one."
Shaded, realizing what Vlad meant, said sadly with tears in his eyes, "Yeah your comrades and family being tortured. That just stopped it for me. My lover was being tortured." Tears were falling freely from his eyes. "I just wanted them to stop, but no they didn't even after I confessed to what I didn't do. I didn't get to see her for five years and when I finally did...." What he whispered out next shocked all the ponies, "She was dead." Then Shaded said with a cruel smile, "I just snapped. I let Ahrimar out." He started to laugh. "I watched them all break at my feet. I filled an entire river with their blood. I killed them all. Yet, I still felt rage. I wanted the planet to pay for letting her die. I destroyed the entire planet." Shaded still kept on laughing.
Vlad was starting to get worried. It had been over 200 years since that happened. Vlad thought he would be over it by now. "Are you okay Shaded?" Vlad asked.
Still Shaded kept laughing. His laugh became hysterical and when he finally stopped what he said chilled them all to the bone. "Shaded has left me in charge of his body for a while. You will now refer to me as Ahrimar the Destroyer, as I will destroy this world."
A/N Cliffhanger anyone? So yeah... Cliffhanger. Ahrimar took over Shaded's body what's going to happen? Also who do you think his father is? Tell me in the comments.
