Chapters As Luna's night had faded, replaced by Celestia's dawn, Twilight found herself walking downstairs to be greeted by the hooded ghost from last night.
"Oh hi um... Lucien was it?" Twilight asked as she greeted the specter.
"Yes, I must thank you for allowing the listener to stay here. He is very important to our family." Lucien replied once again with a bow to the lavender unicorn.
"The listener, another title of Scar." Twilight said more than asked as she smiled at the still sleeping argonian. "Geeze how long can he sleep for? Was he really not kidding about not getting any sleep in a year?" She asked Lucien half jokingly, though for some reason she couuldn't take her eyes off of the amulet he was wearing.
"Actually miss Sparkle, up until last night he has been up for four years and seven months straight, except of course for when he got knocked out." Lucien replied sincerely to the now worried mare. "Before you ask, yes he is fine I would not be here if he weren't. By the way being a mage I can tell you sense the power coming from the amulet." Lucien implied, and she nodded to confirm. "That amulet used to be just a necklace nothing more, until he found a way to enhance his magical power exponentially for a short period of time, he enchanted that amulet with the power of everlasting magical stamina, along with the ability to be a master of archery."
"Wait so you mean, while he wears that he would be able to cast spells forever?" She asked astonished by the power of the small trinket. "Incredible, that must have been why Rarity asked about it before." Scar was beginning to wake up now.
"So I'm guessing Lucien just told you about my amulet huh?" Scar started before sitting up. "He gets really talkative when he's bored. Aaaaaanyway there was no point in me hiding it, I just wanted to see which one of you he would tell first. Now I am gonna go outside an-" he stopped mid word. "Aww dammit I though I was at least gonna have another hour before dealing with royalty, what a drag."
"Whattya mean?" She asked just before she heard the familiar sound of a Pegasus drawn carraige roll into town. "Oh." Scar and Twilight walked outside and into the middle of the marketplace before they were surrounded by royal guards.
"Knew it." Scar said with the expression of a kid who knew their friend was gonna get in trouble.
"By order of Princess Celestia, you are to hand over the element of magic and surrender yourself, if you do not come quietly we will have to take you by force." One of the guards with the 'fancier' armor said in an obnoxious tone.
"I do not wish to fight you, but I have broken no laws, therefore it is unjust to detain me!" He exclaimed to all of the guards, half of them were surprised it even spoke.
"I am afraid we can't do that it is a direct order from the Princess, no one can override it." The same guard said.
Scar leaned down and whispered into Twilight's ear. "They won't listen to reason, be ready for me to pick you up." Scar then stood back up. "VEN MUL RIIK!" The entirety of ponyville was flooded with a thick fog in mere moments, by the time anyone could see even an inch in front of their face, Scar and Twilight were long gone.
"Where are we going!" Twilight shouted as she was now running beside Scar.
"To get help from an unlikely ally." Scar said, "By the way do you know where any Dragon caves or Dragon buriel mounds happen to be?" He asked now slowing down
"I know where one is buried, but how would that help?" Twilight asked.
"You'll see." Scar said as he now followed Twilight.
They walked for what seemed like hours when it really was just about 30 minutes. Twilight explained Equestrian history and how the Princess normally wouldn't just order for an arrest like that. Throughout their entire conversation they didn't notice they were being followed, well, at least Twilight didn't until they had made it to the burial site.
"Twilight stand back if your too close you may get hurt." Then he started to yell, "And Rainbow Dash, if you wanted to come you could have just asked but stay in that cloud for now!" Twilight looked up at an unusually low cloud, while Dash had almost fallen off of it out of being startled. Scar walked in front of the obviously ancient dragon grave while Twilight and Rainbow watched in anticipation. "DRAGON!. I KNOW YOUR SOUL CAN HEAR ME! JUST KNOW THAT IF YOU BETRAY ME OR EVEN THINK OF HURTING MY FRIENDS! I WILL PUT YOU RIGHT BACK IN HERE! SLEN TIID VO!" The ground began to shake and shift while the burial mound started to move, Twilight gasped in fear as she saw a dragon's skeleton crawl out of the grave and the skin started to appear back in place on it.
"Now this is a surprise, to what do I owe the pleasure of being returned to life by the very being that has slain Alduin?" The dragon spoke with both thanks and fear in it's voice.
"Don't think I did this for you, I will not hesitate to bring you back here if I must. I want you to deliver a message to Princess Celestia." Both the dragon Twilight and Rainbow were stunned by this. "Tell her that I do not wish to be her enemy, but with you being alive as proof, I am not one that she would want to anger. From the man she just tried to have arrested." Twilight was shocked by this, when he was happy he was a very good person to be around, but when he was angered you better not be on the receiving end. The dragon flew up and away towards Ponyville as Dash flew down as fast as a bullet.
"Wait, what do you mean she tried to have you arrested?" Rainbow asked, as this was not anything she was used to.
"Well let's just say she doesn't think that I am a good guy apparently, especially considering she sent at least fourty royal guards to try and arrest me." Scar answered.
"Listener, would you like me to go and..... take care of her?" Lucien asked in a grim fashion.
"No Lucien, I want you to watch and see if they catch up to us and if they leave Ponyville, if they leave then I will return." Scar replied.
"Hey Scar do you feel what I feel." Twilight asked as she gestured toward the direction of a familiar power.
"Yeah it's another one of the equipment I had enchanted, I lost all of it but my necklace when I was transported here." Scar replied.
"Uh hey I have no idea what either of you are talking about soooo would ya mind cluing me in?" Dash asked slightly annoyed.
"Dash do you know Scar's Amulet." Dash nodded. "It allows him to be able to cast magic for an unlimited amount of time without getting tired, he made it himself." Twilight explained.
"So what your saying is there is another piece of Scar's overpowered gear around here somewhere?" Dash asked.
"Yea pretty much." Scar answered. Then they heard a sound-crackling roar. "And I think I know where it is."
Scar had gone from a run to a full sprint as he went straight for where the roar sounded from only to find, a dragon, on a mountain, as usual.
"DRAGON! you have two options, ONE I can kill you then take the ring. TWO you can let me take it and I will be on my merry way." Scar shouted
"YOL TOR SHUL" The dragon shouted at him causing a slipstream of fire to flood Scar.
"Scar NO! Scar are you okay!" Twilight screamed.
"Yeah Twillight, what's wrong?" As the flames dispersed Scar appeared to be holding up an invisible field of magic protecting him and in the other hand was a glowing blue sword that didnt appear to even be solid. "I'll be with you in a second, just after I talk with our rude host." He said before slashing upward on the dragon's snout, Scar proceeded by jumping onto the dragons head, he then dissipated the sword, grabbed the dragons face, and channeled lightening into the dragon's body. The dragon shook Scar off and was about to attempt to incinerate him again, but when he opened his mouth Scar shot a stream of lightning into the dragon, stopping it's heart.
"Sc-Scar, did you just." She would've finished the question but she couldn't speak when she witnessed the dragon's scales seem to evaporate, while the stream of vapor flew into Scar's body. "What. Was. That?" She asked dumbfounded by what she just saw.
"I absorbed the dragon's power Twilight." He said as he saw something other than his ring in the dragon's pile of treasures. "Hey Twilight, I'd like to give this to you." He said as he picked up a white and blue swirled and crystalized star.
"Wha- what is it?" She asked still trying to get over what she saw.
"This is Azura's star," Twilight's eyes widened as she recalled the Daedric prince of foresight. "It has the ability to store and release magical energy an unlimited number of times." Twilight's eyes just widened at this, the perfect tool for someone who wishes to pursue magic.
"Thank you Scar." Was all she could manage to say, fascinated by the artifact. Well that and the fact hat her friend just electrocuted a dragon after being incinerated and then swallowed its soul.
Scar put his ring on and instantly felt a power surge.
"So ummm what does your ring do?"
"It puts a perception filter around me, meaning as long as I don't do anything to attract attention only those that I want to see me, can. It also increases the convincibility of my voice, making me the best haggler and liar in the world. By the way where'd Dash go?" Scar asked. On cue a cyan mare sped into the clearing.
"Alright so Scar is now charged with resisting arrest as well as fillynapping Twilight." She said, almost out of breath.
"Alright, well now that I have my ring I should be able to go back, I will only allow those that I know I can rust see or hear me." Scar said as he began to walk balk towards Ponyville.
"Uh did I miss something?"
"I'll explain on the way Dash, and by the way when we get there Twilight I won't be able to stand next to you as everyone will be asking you where you went. That will draw some attention so when we get back I will be hanging out with Dash."
"Okay."
1 hour later
"I know we shouldn't a trusted that lizard!" Applejack yelled at the rest of her friends, save Twi and Dash.
"I don't know, he never did anything to harm us, he answered all of our questions and he gave me a present, I can't believe that he could be a meany pants." Pinkie said defensively
"For once I have to agree with Pinkie, he gave us no reason to distrust him." Rarity said remaining as calm as she can.
"I'm sorry my little ponies but this is a strange new being that can manipulate the weather it's voice and now after I sent my guards to bring him in, Twilight is missing."
"Well yeah you ordered his arrest without any good reason of course he is going to run and maybe Twi went with him." Pinkie argued.
"He saved our lives Celestia, why would he ever bring harm to one of us, and you demand his arrest just because he is powerful. It is quite hypocritical of you." Rarity said obviously annoyed, while everyone was shocked that anypony would say something like that to her. But then a loud shockwave thundered. Celestia looked up to the sky to see what had made that noise.
"Princess Celestia my master sent me with a message." At this part of the statement everyone quickly realized who this 'master' was. "He says that he does not want a quarrel but if you do agitate him, you will regret it."
"Dragon, who is this creature to resist me, to CONTROL you?" Celestia asked the dragon.
"He is Dovahkiin Dragonborn. And he has slain the son of Akatosh, the evil World-Eater Alduin. He has slain the evil son of a god. So let me ask his, who are you! To challenge him?" The dragon finished leaving the princess and ever pony in the area speechless.
"He had killed the son of a god?!?" Rarity exclaimed.
"Yes and had he resisted arrest the OTHER way, your entire guard would have been slaughtered." The dragon said before flying away.
"Ahm sure he meant the evil son of their ruler, ya know considering we worship Celestia as a goddess pretty much." Applejack said trying to break the tension
"TWILIGHT!" Pinkie screamed as she flew towards the lavender unicorn as she entered the town. "Omigosh what happened where'd Scar to and have you seen Dashie anywhere?" She asked at a million words per second
Celestia's gaze went behind Twi as she spotted Dash slowly walking up, but stopped a couple feet behind Twilight. "Princess would you mind telling me what the hay you were thinking, trying to arrest our new friend?" Dash asked rudely. This stunned everyone this is twice in one day. Celestia concentrated when she saw something amiss, she managed to break through the perception filter, allowing every pony to see Scar.
"You!" She shouted before firing lightning, Lucien quickly stepped in the way, but the bolt disintegrated him into a pile of ethereal dust.
"Lucien!" Scar shouted as he ran over to the dust. "I'm sorry my friend." He said softly before standing up and turning to Celestia, "An eye for an eye." He said while he charged his arms to the brim with magic. "A life for a life!" He shouted at the alicorn, who was scared witless, everyone else looked in fear as this creature approached their ruler with hatred In his eyes.
As he approached their ruler they suddenly heard two voices, laughing. One was Scar, the other was Lucien. "Oh my god you should've seen the look on all of your faces," he said between laughs. "Damn that's like the fifth time that has happened huh Lucien." Lucien just chuckled.
"Huh but wait, how, WHAT!?" Twilight exclaimed confused.
"In case any of you didn't notice, Lucien has been dead for a while." He said, pointing at the specter. "I can bring him back once every day. And then he sticks around until something defeats him again. God I needed that laugh, sorry princess." He said helping the princess back to her hooves, as she was still terrified and confused. Suddenly Scar went serious, "I am not joking though kill any of my friends and I will rip your throat out with my claws." He said scaring everyone even more.
"Uh Twilight the teen dragons are back." Spike said nervously as everyone snapped out of heir stupor. A small bipedal dragon, he was dark red, his friends were purple and brown.
"Hey look it's Spikey, oh and it looks like there's another mamby pamby pony dragon." The red one said looking at Scar.
"Actually I was just scaring the princess witless, I don't like her very much, but I would appreciate it if you would leave my friends alone." He said while walking towards the group of dragons. "By the way I am not a dragon, I am an Argonian, but I am Dragonborn."
"Hah, Dragonborn, that is just an old myth. And if your gonna defend these prissy ponies, then we are gonna have to take care of you ourselves." The purple one said
"Come at me bro! Lucien you stay out of this." Scar said as he readied his fighting stance.
The red one said nothing more instead he charged at Scar claws flying. Scar grabbed the red ones wrist put his other hand underneath the elbow, and pushed up, snapping the red ones arm. He then grabbed the face of the dragon as he put his right leg behind the dragons left leg, Scar pushed on the dragon's face as he pulled on it's leg sending the dragon straight into the ground. This all took place in a matter of seconds. The other two charged in about to try and rip apart the thing that just took down their friend.
"Faas, Ru Maar!" The dragons stopped dead in their tracks turned around and flew away with a look of horror in their eyes.
"Gahhhhhhhh what the hell are you." The remaining dragon shouted in pain.
"Gol Ha Dov!" The dragon suddenly stopped shrieking and he started to heal, Scar was healing him. "Now, you listen to me, apologize to my friends for insulting them and threatening to hurt them."
Shocking to everyone the dragon bowed to the crowd of ponies. "I am sorry, I was ruse narcissistic and conceited I don't deserve the mercy I have been given." The crowd was speechless, save for spike who was laughing his ass off, and Dash who was letting out one steady sound of disbelief.
"That Was Awesome!" Dash and Spike said in unison.
"That was barbaric, what on Equis is wrong with you." A random pony in the crowd shouted.
"Would you rather I had allowed them to harm you all, hell they would have burnt this town down, I wasn't going to ask for thanks but if you reject what I offer then maybe you don't want me to defend you!" Scar shouted into the crowd.
"You still fillynapped Twilight why in Tartarus should we thank you for anything?!" Another angrily shouted.
"Because he didn't fillynap me I went with him when it was obvious the guards wouldn't stop trying to unjustly arrest him." Twilight spoke up angry at the crowd.
"Twilight he is too powerful he is a danger to us all." Celestia pleaded to her student.
"If power is the only reason for you to try and arrest him, shouldn't you have been condemned by now 'Princess'!" The last word was spoken with venom, and to Celestia that hurt more than any physical wound coming from Twilight. But the worst part is, she knew it was true, she had acted out of fear without any actual provocation.
"Twilight, I-I I'm sorry." Celestia said trying to close the distance between her and her angered student.
"Celestia, I'm not the one you should be apologizing to, you sent forty guards and ordered them to detain him by force. You don't diserve to be forgiven." Twilight's words cut her like a razor.
"Twilight it's okay," Everyone looked to the bipedal. "I can tell by looking into her eyes that she is sorry, that she can see just how stupidly she acted. Princess Celestia, I forgive you, but know that should this happen again I will not run from your guards, and I will not hold back." Scar finished before walking back into Twilight's house, and she ran after him while everypony else was too stunned to move. Scar turned around to see Twilight once they were in the house but before he could say anything she hugged him tightly, sealing him in a warm yet sad embrace.
"Thank you, thank you for forgiving her." She said sobbing into Scar's robes, she had obviously holding back her tears in front of the Princess. "I couldn't bear being angry at her like that." She continued.
"It's okay Twilight, you don't have to hold back anything, it was just a misunderstanding, and your Princess was obviously scared." He said as he returned the hug as to comfort the weeping mare.
The day had been long so they were both exhausted. 'Weird I have never gotten tired after this short a time. Maybe it's just the world catching up to me.' He thought as they sat there and fell asleep on the couch next to one another.
Twilight slowly woke up, in a daze. 'Huh this isn't my room.' She thought to herself. 'What am I laying on.' She looked over and realized she had been resting her head on Scar's shoulder. She quickly leapt off of the couch and stared back for a moment.
"Took you long enough to realize you were technically sleeping with him." Lucien chuckled to himself, "It was actually adorable." Twilight blushed profusely.
"Sh-shut up!" Twilight shouted at the specter.
"Alright, alright. But your face is redder than a Dremora's." He finished still chuckling. Then there was a knock on the door.
"Oh hey Rarity." Twilight said as she opened the door.
"Hello Twi- oh sweety your all red, are you feeling sick?" Rarity asked concerned, this just caused Lucien to laugh even harder.
"What did I miss something?" Rarity asked.
"No Rarity it's fine." Twilight said as Lucien still laughed.
"Well anyway I was wondering if we could all go have a picnic or something." Rarity said cheerfully.
"Yeah I'd like to come too." They turned around to hear Scar who had just woken up. He scanned around the room and when his eyes met Twilight she blushed lightly and Lucien chuckled again. "Lucien your going to tell me about this later." He said rather nervously.
"Okay so should we go gather the other girls?" Twilight said attempting to change the subject.
"Actually they are already setting everything up. We just need to go meet them." Rarity finished.
The four went and met the other four on top of a wonderful soft grassy hill at the park. The sun was shining bright, bathing the whole place in a blanket of warmth.
"Hey, Twi hey Scar." Dash said as the group got close. "We got all the food but we forgot the wine we were going to bring, sorry." She said apologetically
"That's fine I'll just have my friend bring us some Alto Wine." Scar said calmly. He clapped three times and once again the Dremora butler appeared once again. "Just give me some Alto please." The demon nodded before handing his master a bottle then vanished back into oblivion. "Alright well let's have a nice-" he was cut off by a sight he hoped never to see in his lifetime let alone on this world. Off in the distance he could see, the black spire of an Oblivion Gate. "ONE DAY, is that too much to ask!" he shouted while staring into the distance.
"Scar what's wro-" Dash was about to ask him before she realized what he was looking at. "What is that?"
"That is an Oblivion gate, everyone you need to get the town evacuated as fast as possible, I won't be able to save all those that you won't be able to get out and myself. So I hope you'll be there at my funeral." As he said this, he smiled. This confused the mane 6 more than anything else, he said he was going to die to save them. They had thought about it so long, that before they could argue, he was already approaching the Oblivion gate. Which now had demonically armored creatures flooding from it.
As he ran to the battle he was crying. Not because he knew he was going to die, but because he was happy. He could protect this untainted land from these creatures. As he approached he did something he didn't think he would ever do again. He prayed for strength. He then extended his arms creating a pool of magic that now hardened his skin to that of a dragon's. Then he summoned two Dremora lords. He looked back to see his new friends rush back to the town.
Twilight
_________________________________________________________
"Do you guys think he'll, be alright, I mean he pretty much told us he's expecting to die." Twilight said to the rest, worry eminating from her voice.
"He'll be fine, besides Twilight, we've seen what he can do, there is no doubt in my mind he will be fine." Dash said confidently. "Now we need to do as he said and get everypony out of the town."
"I just hope you're right." Twilight said quietly.
Scar
__________________________________________________________
"ODAHVIIN!, DURNEHVIIR!, HUN KAAL ZOOR!, MUL QAH DIIV!" Two dragons, one red and one...... Dead, appeared. Along with a heavenly warrior and the spiritualistic Dragonic armor that formed around Scar when he fought the manticores. "Dragons I need you to make sure they don't get close to the town, if even one gets in there will be trouble!" With that the specters the dragons and the Dremora, charged into battle along side the dragonborn. It was sheer suicide though, regardless of how skilled any of these creatures were the numbers of the fight were 50 daedra to 1 of them. Right off the bat as they charged in the dragon's took down at least 40 of the daedra, but everytime they went to attack with their claws, they got hit with at least 30 blades in mere moments. It took merely minutes before all of the Dragonborn's support had been slain. Scar quickly had to change from being up close and personal, to using his full mastery of magic to fight. He rushed into the very center of the fight using whirlwind sprint. He imbued his arms with the very essence of frost. Then he turned the battlezone into that of a blizzard. Freezing all of the close daedra solid, this gave him enough time to cast another spell. This one exploded in a blazing inferno, completely incinerating those about to stab Scar and melting all of the ice that had just been there. Another Daedra had just been about to stab him through his back when he used become ethereal to back out of the crowd.
Now that his enemies were covered in water, the Dragonborn summoned two storm Atronachs, and at once the two beings cast chain lightning into the soaked crowd, either stunning or killing most of them. Scar was about to cast the spell lightning storm. This would obliterate the remaining Daedra.
The Mane 6
___________________________________________________
They had just finished getting the evacuation of Ponyville set up and now the citizens were leaving, they were safe. "Come on guys we gotta make sure Scar is alright." The rest only nodded as they ran back to the hill where they were relaxing not an hour ago. They looked down at the battle to see the spell blizzard taking effect.
"Wow, he is fighting so hard, that magic would take a lot out of a pony." Twilight said as she stared at the blue spiral. "Come on we gotta-" She would have said more but she stopped silent as she saw an inferno appear, scorching the forest nowhere near the fight.
"Woah, now I actually wish I had magic, that is awesome!" Dash exclaimed as she witnessed the fury of the Argonian. "Let's get closer." They had just gotten close enough to see Scar when he summoned the Atronachs.
"Ye' Scar finish 'em off!" Applejack shouted just as Scar was about to cast the final spell, but he stopped. They were terrified and had to get a better view of the fight. When they had, what they saw was terrifying.
"NOOOOOOO!" Twilight and Rainbow screamed at the same time as they saw a Daedra, plunge its sword into their friends' chest, and he fell back slowly, dying.
Scar
____________________________________________
As he slowly fell backwards, he noticed his friends in the distance. Scar could only imagine what they were feeling, and he almost embraced deaths' sweet rest, but then he realised. If he died now his friends would die, and Equestria would burn.
"MERIDIA! I KNOW YOU CAN HEAR ME!" He shouted dispite the blood he was coughing up. "THIS WORLD IS FILLED WITH SUCH BEAUTY AND LIGHT, ISN'T THIS THE KIND OF WORLD YOU WANT TO PRESERVE! HELP ME! HELP ME KEEP MY FRIENDS AND THIS WORLD SAFE!"
The Mane 6
________________________________________
They were all crying now, they just witnessed their friend dying in battle, and they knew Equestria was next. They couldn't help but cry, at the hopelessness they were feeling. But then, after a few moments, they all felt something. Something that Twilight and Rarity, had felt before, the power of Scars' amulet. However there was much more of it now. They quickly looked back to find Scar, and they saw him, standing up. He was surrounded in shining blue armor, all of which had that same type of magic flowing out of it.
"Uh Twi, is there any chance that that is his other overpowered gear?" Dash asked her equally confused friend.
"Yeah, I think it is." Twilight answered back, unable to remove her gaze from the now standing warrior. In his right hand he held a shining golden sword, and the very hilt of it created a light like that of the sun. There was only one way to describe what was going on at the moment. Though none of them could think of the correct words.
SHIT
JUST
GOT
REAL
"He'll be fine." Was all Pinkie could say before they saw him now cutting down each and every one of the invading demons with a single swing of the Solar blade. Before anypony could even contemplate what was happening, Scar stood at the base of the portal. There was only one thing said, and these words, were heard all the way across Equestria. As he spoke them with all of his being.
"FUS RO DAH!" The thundering shout, used with more power than any thought possible, ripped the Oblivion gate from this realm and threw it straight into the deepest reaches of the void.
Scar
_________________________________________________________
"You have done well Dovahkiin. Not only have you spread my light across Skyrim, you have preserved the light of a different realm. I can assure you that there will not be another invasion of this world, however, your body and your armors' magic is tainted with the darkness of your realm. I give you this Dovahkiin, my final gift to you, live well. With that the voice of Meridia was gone, and the land enveloped in a flash for a moment. Scar began to wake up, but the only thing on his mind, were his friends.
Dash
____________________________________________________________
"Come on! We gotta get down there, he might still be hurt!" Dash shouted at the rest snapping them out of their stupor. "I don't see him." She said as they ran over to the light-scorched battlefield.
"Wait what's that." Twilight asked as she pointed to the center of a small crater.
Scar
_________________________________________-
"Wait what's that." Scar turned his head to see his friends approaching him, he would have gone to them himself, but his hooves were killing him. 'WAIT WHAT! ', Scar looked down and he indeed he had hooves. He had become a pony. He tried to heal himself so that he might be able to go to his friends but, nothing happened. His friends all looked at him confused.
"Yeah girls. It's me, it's Scar." He said before unconciousness took him in it's warm embrace.
Reality started fading in as Scar began to wake up. He could hear voices around him, and he wanted to talk back, but all he could do was watch for a moment.
"What do you think happened, why is he a pony now?" Dash asked Twilight, utterly confused.
"I have no idea. But I have a feeling he would be dead if it hadn't happened." Twilight answered.
"Girls 'e's awake." Applejack said while staring at Scar.
"Scar how'd you get your gear back, and where is it now." Dash asked, her face less than an inch from his.
"I'll tell you when I'm feeling better, but since I can't summon him to ask him. Twilight would you mind telling me what got you flustered this morning?" Scar asked with a grin on his face.
"Um I'll tell you later." She said quickly as she started to blush.
"I am sorry about how I treated you earlier, you saved so many lives and from what Twilight told me, you expected to die, but you smiled anyway." A familiar voice said, as the solar princess entered the room.
"Well good morning sunshine," Scar said joking about her power. "As for what you said, I have nearly died many times. If I had died back there it probably would have been the best way so far. Also the reason I was smiling was because I remembered what a wise man once said. 'Do not be sad now that the good times are over, smile because they happened.'" When Scar said this, every pony was put into deep thought by just how right this was.
"Anyway I must ask if you think any more of those portals will appear." Celestia stated.
"No, they will not. Meridia assured me so." When Scar said this, the mane 6 cringed slightly, as they had remembered the Daedric Princes. "And before you ask, yes she is the reason I still breathe, she sent me my armor. So that I could protect the light of this realm."
"So hold on one of those demonic rulers helped you save us." Twilight asked nervously, Scar nodded. "Also why haven't you healed yourself yet?"
Scar sighed, "Because in return for me having this body and my life, she took away my powers." At this everypony's eyes got wide.
"You mean you have up all of your powers in order to save us?" The group asked in unison, he nodded.
"I am certain that I have one more use of each of my once a day powers." After he said this he started to glow green and he got out of the hospital bed. "That was my last use of Mora's Boon, it completely rejuvenated me."
"So what other abilities can you use just one more time?" Pinkie asked.
"Well before I summon my butler for the last time, Celestia could I exchange each of my gold septims for a bit? You can melt down the septims and use them for whatever you want. By the way I would like to get a house in Ponyville, as my Butler will be bringing A Lot of stuff." Scar said as they walked out of the hospital.
"Of course you may, it would be unjust to not allow the pony that saved the town keep the fortune from his world." Celestia said calmly.
The group was about to start a new subject, when a familiar sound caught their attention. They turned around to see Lucien standing there, smiling. "Hello Ex-Listener." As he said this everyone was slightly frightened. "A new Listener will take your place. But because of all you have done for the brotherhood, Sithis has given me the power to summon myself to you." He then turned his head to Twilight. "Hello Miss Sparkle, you slept with Scar lately?" He asked while smiling, Twilights' and Scars' eyes went wide and she blushed furiously. All was silent for a moment, even Celestia lost her composure.
"Wait you WHAT!?!" Dash finally broke the silent with a shout.
"Not like that!" Twilight screamed. "We were both just insanely tired so I fell asleep with my head on his shoulder!" She then scowled at Lucien for making such an awkward moment.
Rainbow Dash then started laughing incredibly hard. "Holy crap! That has to be one of the best ways to prank somepony!" Applejack shut her up by bucking her into a wall.
"Hey as much as I know your pissed, if you saw what I saw you would have called it adorable." He said as he got closer to his former master and current friend. Twilight just blushed again.
"Okay well now that that awkward moment is out of the way, Celestia where might I be able to stay?" Scar asked
"Oh I almost forgot," Lucien said while holding out his hand. "This is a gift from Sithis." He handed Scar a cube. "Throw it wherever you want your home." Scar decided to toss it to the outskirts of Ponyville.
A small shack formed around where the cube landed. "It's kinda small don't you think?" Dash asked Scar.
"Check the inside, and tell me if you still think so." Lucien told her. The group proceeded into the ancient looking shack and upon entry everyone save for Celestia's jaw dropped. The inside of the construction was the size of the castle in canterlot.
"How?" Was all Twilight could ask as she stared at the impossible structure.
"The doorway was a portal to the void, where Sithis can create anything from nothing. He made this." Lucien said as he walked into the next room, revealing a dining hall that was very familiar.
"Lucien. Is this Castle Volkihar?" They turned to see Scar, whose face was now plastered with fear.
"No, but it is a replica. Minus some of the 'bad' decor." A wave of relief washed over Scar's face.
"Scar what's wrong. What's Castle Volkihar?" Twilight asked and everyone looked at Scar inquisitively.
"Tell you what. I will tell you, once you hear the rest of my stories first. Say, one every evening?" The group beamed at the mention of his stories that he would gladly tell, and that they are currently in a castle from one that had specific significance.
"Yeah of course, hey can we hear one of the stories tonight. I really wanna have a sleepover since I couldn't throw you a welcome to Ponyville party!" Pinkie yelled as she popped out of nowhere.
"Sure, in fact I'll tell you the longest one. My story of being a Dragonborn." After he said that the ponies all went silent, as their eyes wen as wide as possible.
He began by telling them the events of Helgen, followed by his travel to Whiterun and then Ironbind barrow. Along with the slaying of his first dragon, then the summons of the Graybeards. He proceeded this way for many hours, but nonetheless they all listened attentively. He was now at the part where he summoned and tamed Odahviin. Rainbows' eyes were especially wide for that part, as she had rid on its' back. When he finally told them that he had in fact killed the son of the dragon god Akatosh, it looked like their eyes were goin to explode, while Celestia's looked like they contained fear. "-then I was returned to Riverwood, the town I had first visited once I escaped from Helgen."
"Wow, I knew you were powerful, but, wow." Everyone looked at Twi as she realized she was so in awe she made the least intelligent reaction possible. "-I mean, that's very impressive." Lucien chuckled the same way he did during that incident.
"You should write all of this down, you could give the author of Daring Doo a run for her money." Rainbow said as she stared at the adventurous pony.
"Anyway we should be getting to sleep. If I remember correctly, the guest rooms should be up those stairs and down the right hall." The girls nodded and each of them said good night before thy found three rooms, each with two beds. However Celestia had returned to Canterlot before anyone noticed.
"Hey Fluttershy, what do you think of Scar anyway?" Dash asked her roommate.
"Well, I think I can trust him. But I still think he's scary." She said comfortably to her childhood friend.
"I like him, he only just met us, and he was still willing to die for us." She said while staring at the ceiling.

"I think he's fascinating, and I really think he's nice." Twilight said looking at AJ.
"I think he's nice too....... But, he seems like he's hiding something I had a feeling before but the moment he actually asked about the castle, it seemed like he was frightened." She said with concern plastered on her face. "Ahm just saying we should watch em."
_______________________________________
"I am so throwing him a house warming party." Pinkie said as her smile lines extended beyond her face.
"He reminds me of somepony, but I can't remember exactly." Rarity said with slight worry. "I'm not sure but he both comforts me and frightens me."
_____________________________
"So what do you think about them." Lucien asked his old friend.
"I think that I can never expect them to fully trust me until they know what I am, but they may not like me afterwards."
7:00 AM
__________________________________________________________________
"Come on! Rise and shine everypony, I'd like to tell another story over breakfast." At the sound of food something happened that no one expected, Dash didn't wake up last.
"So what story are you going to tell today?" Twilight looked more eager than any of the other pony to hear the stories.
"This morning I will tell you one of two stories, I can tell you my work in the Thieves Guild," everyponies' eyes were wide when he admitted to being a thief. "Or I can tell you about my time at the Mages' College in Winterhold." Everyponies' expression could tell which one they picked, except for Dash, who frowned at the word 'College'.
"Alright well I guess Dash doesn't want to hear about the ancient strongholds I went through to gain one of the magical artifacts that helped me save Skyrim for the fourth time." At the words 'ancient stronghold' Dash immedietly lit up. "Okay so it all started with a single spell in order to get in....." He told the story of how he entered along with the ward spell and even about the other three students that were there. He told them about the narcissistic cat, and how he always referred to himself in the third person.
"Hey that sounds a lot like that lying illusionist, Trixie." The group said almost in sync.
"Well, as full of himself as J'Zargo is he is actually incredibly strong." The girls were a bit taken back by this, although they weren't exactly surprised. "Anyway......" Scar then told them about his first lesson in the ward spells, and explained that he used one of the stronger ones to protect himself from the dragons flame before. He then told about the college field trip to the ancient ruins, and how he and his teacher fought undead all the way down to discover the Eye of Magnus. About an half an hour passed as he told of the rest of the adventures along with the betrayal of Ancano. And the challenges of the Labyrinthian, he made sure to tell them about the skeletal dragon and the ancient undead dragon priest guarding the Staff of Magnus. It eventually got to the point where the story came to a close. "After that I said goodbye to all of my new friends, except for J'Zargo he came with me, he was helpful and the way he spoke was kind of funny."
"Wow." Twilight said again, in the least impressive tone possible, she then caught what she said....... again.
"Is that going to be a usual thing for you Twilight?" Scar asked, slightly chuckling.
"Anyway, can you give me a hint as to why you seemed down when Lucien told you which castle this place was." Rarity asked, and was followed by the stares of all of her friends.
"Gah! Ugh, I will tell you this and only this, one of my incredibly close friends lived here, her name was Serana." His voice was almost as inaudible as Fluttershy's when he said that last part. "Whatever though, I've got to get moved in." He summoned his butler.
"Yes sir."
"Since this is the last time I'm going to be able to summon you, I want all of my stuff, I want my trophies to line the walls of this place." The butler simply waved his hands and suddenly the entire building now had a series of swords, staves, bows, shields, armor, and other pieces of equipment lining it. Accompanied by an enormous pile of gold in the very center of the room. "Yeah that's about all the gold I had, although I don't see what good it'll do here, I suppose you can just move it into one of the back rooms." The butler moves the pile and then vanished for the last time.
"WAIT WAIT WAIT! So you're like a frigging millionaire?!?" Dash exclaimed.
"Well, yeah." He said as he sighed. "But I don't really need it, after all I still have all of my stuff, regardless of if it has any power or not." He said as he started to smile. "Listen, I am willing to tell my stories anytime all of you are willing to listen. But for now I'd like to try and make a new life for myself, besides I'm sure you all have something to do for yourselves right now." Scar said before he started to walk outside.
"Girls I'm sorry but I don't trust 'im." Applejack said as soon as Scar was out of ear shot.
"What!? He's like one of the most awesomest ponies I've ever met!" Dash said while scowling at AJ, "Plus he saved our lives when he thought he was going to die, that has to count for something AppleJack."
"Ahm not sayin' Ahm ungrateful, I haven't sensed him lie yet but, but it doesn't feel like he's telling us everything either." She said strongly.
"Do you expect him to darling. The poor fellow just left his world and got dropped into ours and had to save our lives twice at the cost of all of his abilities. He is allowed to have a few secrets." Rarity said, actually without insulting anyone's fashion.
"In all seriousness I have to agree with both of you." As Fluttershy spoke everyone in the room turned to look at her.
"What do you mean Fluttershy."
"Well...... He is definetly looking out for us, but when I looked into his eyes when he was talking about this place, I saw...... fear. Whatever his secret is it's something big enough that he is terrified of telling us it." The weight of these words were not carried by their sound, and everypony suddenly felt slightly insecure.
"Well, I still think that he is just paranoi-" Dash was cut off by a pink blur.
"WHAT IF HE'S A VAMPONY!!!!!" Pinkie screamed at the top of her lungs.
"PINKIE!" Twilight shouted, "Have you seriously not learned your lesson since Nightmare Night? You can't just go shouting things like that."
"Sorry Twilight, but I can't think of a secret so big, that someone who would just casually tell us he was a thief would be scared to tell." Pinkie said as her hair almost straightened.
"It's fine Pinkie, but we should probably let him gather his thoughts on this, we can't force him to tell us."
Scar
_____________________________________________________________
"So how do you plan on telling them." Lucien asked the worried warrior.
"I have no idea, how am I supposed to tell them this. About Serana, about her father, about the Dawnguard? Especially when I just find out I might be able to talk to her again."
He walked through Ponyville, for the first time in a long time, he had nothing to do. He decided perhaps he should get to know everypony, but he decided that he wanted to be alone instead.
"Hey! Is your name Scar?" He turned around to see a small filly with an orange coat and purple mane.
"Yeah that's me, so what can I do for ya."
"Well I just wanted to thank you for saving Rainbow Dash, but I never got the chance."
"Well your welcome. I don't suppose there is anything in this town I could really do at the moment."
"Weeeeeeeellll. There is one thing you cou-" there was a loud crash coming from the Everfree.
"ONE DAY IS THAT REALLY TOO MUCH TO ASK!" He shouted as he ran towards the forest.
He gets there to see that his friends were already there. There. Was. A. Fucking. Hydra. "What in oblivion is that doing here." He said as the hydra started to approach them and the town. Twilight and Rarity combined their magic and formed a sphere around the hydra, attempting to keep it contained. However it started slamming its heads against it. Already starting to shatter it.
"Somepony help please!" Twilight shouted as the last of the field shattered.
"Hold on!" He shouted as he got between the hydra and his friends, almost like he forgot he lost his powers. The hydra smacked him out of the way using one of its forelegs. It was now standing in front of his friends, all four heads ready to strike. "No! Don't you dare hurt my friends!" There was a loud sound but nopony looked over at Scar they were too terrified of the hydra. One of the heads came down, only to be sent straight towards Scar, and then smacked straight into a tree by Scars' claws. The mane six looked over at Scar, only to be terrified at the sight of the Vampire Lord, that was before them. For a few seconds he was moving incredibly quickly, but without effort and he punched straight through one of the hydras' necks. They other heads roared and dove for him. But he vanished in a swarm of bats and reappeared on the back of the beast. He slammed his claw straight through its back grabbed the part of the spine that connected to each of the heads, and snapped it. Much to the horror of the ponies witnessing this, Fluttershy had already passed out. While almost all of the others have thrown up. He hopped down before summoning a gargoyle inside another one of the hydras' throats, you can guess what happened from that. The last two hydras roared, not in anger as much as pain. He through two absorb health orbs at the left remaining heads, sending it either into a coma, or into the next life. Finally he grabbed the last head using telekinesis he brought up his claw and was about to ring it down to end the last head.
"STOP!" Scar turned around to see his friends with tears in their eyes. "Please, you won, just stop." He lowered his claw before staring back at his friends.
"I'm sorry." The sadness and fear in his voice could be felt by the friends that were still concious, before he vanished once again in a swarm of bats that flew towards his home.
Twilight checked on her friends to make sure they were okay, and without exchanging words, they knew she had to go after him. 'What was that, did he lose control? No he was perfectly in control, his moves were precise and well executed.... Wow could I have picked a worse choice of words for that, NEVERMIND.'
As soon as he got in the door he reverted from his vampiric form. He was crying heavily, he grabbed the blood cursed elven arrows and darted towards the old tower.
Twilight ran into the castle about a minute after him, "Scar! Scar! Where'd you go?!?" She found herself quickly rushing through one of the doors she had not yet opened, to find herself in a garden. She noticed there were plates showing the phases of the moon, and that one of the plates had been misplaced, this was a horrible time for her OCD to kick in she thought, but as she slid the plate into place a new entrance began to open up. "Woah, didn't expect that to happen." She then shook off her feeling of awe and remembered her insane worry for her friend. She made her way through the ancient labyrinth of a castle, she could have sworn the statues were staring at her, but she continued to rush. Near the end she saw what looked to be a fireplace, however the back had slid away revealing another room. At the top of the walk-way she saw Scar gathering up various ingredients and placing them into a brazier.
"What are you doing?" Scar turned around to see a crying Twilight.
"Twilight, I'm a monster in this world, you'd be better off without me." He said before dropping the blood cursed arrow in the brazier. The floor below started to move and glow, Twilight gasped as the portal opened. "Only vampires can move through this portal, I will make sure to close. It once I am through."
"Why!" She screamed while looking at Scar. "You've saved us THREE times in less than a week! What makes you think that we're better without you?!?" She screamed at the vampire.
"Twilight I'm too powerful, and that power is evil." He choked out hose words.
"I don't care if your power is evil! Your power is under your control you proved that today, you're my friend, your our friend. If you just explain, we won't tell anypony. Please." The two stared at eachother for what seemed like an eternity, the only sound that could be heard were the sobs of the distraught and partially furious Twilight. "You would rush into battle expecting to die for us, and when we find out that you have a dark ability you want to turn and leave out of fear of hurting us. Why don't you ever just stop and think about how we feel?! If you had died that day, NONE of us would have forgiven ourselves or YOU!" Her cries were getting louder, and he was starting to tear up himself. He was about to speak, but was interrupted by something he thought impossible.
"Well Scar, what have you done this time." They both turned to see a slender human female, with black hair, royal attire and glowing orange and black eyes. "I never pictured you as one to make a girl cry." Twilight stared in confusion and fear for a second. Her eyes locked with those of the newcomer, they had a bad hunger to them. She was terrified of her, but at the same time, comforted. Twilight looked over to Scar to see what his take on this was, but for a moment he just stared, with the expression of complete and utter shock on his face.
"Serana!" Scar shouted before running straight to her and hugged her, she was surprised incredibly, but nonetheless returned the embrace. "I thought you died!" Twilight felt everything click in her head.
"I did, but Durvehniir brought me to the Soul Cairn, I can't return to Nirn, but this isn't Nirn." She said to the now tearless pony. "So how is it that you're eh, you're a pony now huh?" She asked attempting to stifle her laughter.
"Hello, I'm still a little out of the loop." Twilight said to the reunited pair.
"Sorry Twi, I'd like you to meet the two thousand year old princess of the vampires Serana." Twilights' eyes were now bulging out of her head as she stared at Serana. "Well I guess technically you're actually the queen now."
"Wait what?" Twilight said confused by this whole situation.
"We'll explain in a bit, get everyone together, except for Celestia, being as she tried to arrest me just for my strength I don't know what she would do if she found out we're vampires." Twilight reluctantly nodded.
Half an hour later
_____________________________________
Once we finally got Fluttershy to stop fainting and convinced Pinkie to stop trying to stake us we were finally able to talk. "Okay now, before you try to kill us again let us explain. Vampires are not inherently evil, we have choices like everyone else, and trying to kill us in specific is probably the worst idea you could think of." Their faces were full of curiosity. "Not only is Serana the queen of the vampires, but I am the king." Everypony gasped at this. "Vampires do not burn in the sun, but they are weaker. We do not need blood to live, it just strengthens us against the sun." Everypony let out a sigh of relief. "Any questions?"
"Is Serana your sister or wife." Rarity was the first one to ask a question, which was kinda surprising.
"Neither," he started blushing. "I'm hoping she sees herself as my girlfriend, but that is the most we are."
"Which one of you is royal by birth?" Twilight asked, her inquiry was a near radiation.
"I am." Serana said to the purple mare, "but Scar is much more worthy of the title, he killed the old king, my 'father'." She spat the last word with disgust.
"Why are you glad he killed your father?" Twilight and her friends seemed terrified of that thought.
"My father was a tyrant, he tore our family apart over a prophecy he barely understood. After I came back after a thousand years, the first thing he asked was if I still had the scroll, not if I was okay. In order to complete the prophecy, he would have gladly killed me in order to block out he sun." Twilight and her friends were absolutely horrified, they couldn't imagine anyone evil enough to do any of that, let alone to family.
"Why couldn't you two ever get married?" Rarity asked them questioningly.
"The only way to get married in Skyrim is to go to the temple of Mara, they don't like vampires." Scar explained.
"Can all vampires turn into that thing?" Dash questioned while staring at her friend.
"Only those turned by royalty, or royalty themself."
"If we asked, would you turn us into vampires?" Everyone turned to stare at Twilight. "What it's just a question." she said sheepishly
"Only if it really meant that much to you, or we had no other choice. It's not just a bite to us, we can bite without turning. Turning someone is very........ Intimate." He said while looking at Serana, causing them all to blush lightly. "Now I have a question for all of you." They nodded, "Can you keep what we are a secret from everypony?" They nodded. "Twilight, that includes the Princesses." She hesitated, but nodded again. "Good, now get some rest, I'd like to show Serana around." He said before reaching hooking arms with her, and they both dissipated into a larger swarm of bats.
"Wow, kinky." Everyone stared at Dash. "Whaaaat."
___________________________________________________________________
Serana and Scar now stood at the top of the highest building in Ponyville. "Hey Serana."
"Yes."
"Two things, first of all, could you shapeshift into a pony? That way no one would be suspicious."
"Wouldn't be the weirdest thing I've turned into." They shared a laugh for a few seconds, before Scar took on a serious, yet affectionate demeanor.
"Also, I need you to bite me again, I still have my powers for now but they are wading rapidly." She looked at him nervously before morphing into a scarlet pony with a black mane and complying with his requests. The bite lasted for a couple seconds. Once she pulled back, he pushed forward, their lips meeting for a few seconds, Her eyes going incredibly wide, with shock like his had earlier. "Eh'm sorry." They both blushed before she spoke.
"Don't be, however this will be funny to show to your friends. It's kinda obvious the purple one and the blue one like you a little." They both chuckled at that before kissing again and vanishing in a cloud of winged fiends. They reappeared a few feet from the door to their beloved castle. "I bet you they've been doing nothing but gossip and talk about how they still doubt us."
They both entered the door and saw a sight that Scar knew they would see, BUT REALLY THIS SOON. Scar saw just inside the room staring straight at them, was the princess of the night. "Are you fucking kidding me Twilight?" He said staring at the purple mare. "Well Luna I hope you don't mind, but I'd like to not get too formal. Your sister attempted that and in all seriousness I still hate her." He continued as he and Serana bat swarmed to their places at the table. "I will assume you know what we are, since you were waiting for us."
"Y-yes, thou art correct." She said, astounded at the creatures she was seeing talk to her like this. "We hath not told our sister yet. She can be quite irrational sometimes." She said before taking a seat across from them.
"You know I'm already getting to like you." He said as he back at the princess again. "But I am going to say this now, if Celestia does find out, and ANY of the guards try to harm Serana, I will block out the sun."
They were all taken back by this.'Does he really have that kind of power, what am I thinking we heard two of his earth shattering stories. This isn't too far fetched .' Twilight thought, slightly frightened by his sudden change in attitude. She noticed however, that Serana was impressed with the lengths he would go to.
'Unless he's just trying to scare them. She laughed to herself quietly.
"Now I can tell that since you haven't told Celestia yet, that you are just checking on us. If you want to know more about us and why we would not use our powers against the innocent. I guess we can go to that story tonight." Luna was slightly confused while all of the girls' eyes lit up like fireworks. "So it was basically a normal day, I was walking around Whiterun to get some of my gear for a new adventure, which had to be happening soon, because I can never have an actually normal day.EVER. Then this oddly armored orc appeared, he asked me if I wanted to combat the vampire menace in Skyrim. I hadn't exactly noticed any menace of that sort, but I thought this would be a good way to kill some time. I was right. I find my way to an enormous fort behind Riften, Fort Dawnguard. I was soon allowed in given my title and powers, and I was assigned to go to a cave and stop these vampires from finding whatever it was they were looking for. It took me about twenty minutes to clear out the vamps and come across some sort of ceremonial room. I put my hand on a button and a spike came out impaling my hand." They cringed at that, "my blood worked wonders though, I quickly lifted the lock on whatever the obelisk in the center was for, I open it and the tile slides down. Revealing the most beautiful girl I had ever seen in all my years in Skyrim." He looked to Serana, "She was locked away for at least a thousand years, but I got her out and we soon escaped the dark cave. She had no idea where she was going, and because of her eyes I knew no one else would help her. So I escorted her back to her castle on the northeast coast of Skyrim, castle Volkihar." He gestured to the building they were in. He then proceeded to tell them about the rest of the adventure including him taking the offering Seranas' father gave him, all the way to the moth priest, the prophecy, and finally Auri-els' bow. Then the confrontation with Seranas' father. "He then suspended himself in his shield above the fountain AGAIN, so I used the bow along with the sunhallowed arrows and finished him. His last words were ones trying to get Serana to feel guilty. Didn't work for more than a second. SO, any questions that I haven't already been asked?"
"Do vampires have any other abilities?" Twilight asked while looking straight at him nervously.
"We can raise the dead to fight for us, we can drain health using magic instead of biting, we can turn completely invisible for a short time, and the only one I haven't actually tried fully yet, once a day we can seduce any mortal we wish." He chuckled at the embarassed and nervous looks he was getting from the group, especially Luna. "But don't worry, if I ever did that, Serana would kill me, bring me back to life, and kill me again. Literally." She giggled lightly at this. "Anyway, Twi I know you're going to ask this. The reason I thought Serana was dead, and she was, was because after a fight with two dragons, three giants, a mammoth, and some seriously pissed of Gray-Beards, don't ask, I couldn't find her. I searched for a month, I got so attached because with my life style, I rarely make friends, let alone relationships. Now it has been a REALLY long day, so I would like to get to bed." They all nodded before they took on the bat swarm again, and went towards Scar's room.
"Seriously, after that last power he told us about, you still don't think the vampire thing is pretty kinky." They all stared at Dash again, except for Luna who had heard and thought about more lewd things in this one night than she had in the past thousand years, was blushing furiously. Dash started laughing, "Well this has escalated very quickly now I'm gonna go sleep too."
'Tia wouldn't even believe this even if I told her'
Daylight broke into the cross-dimensional home. The girls all slowly got up and proceeded down to the room where they would usually eat. Twilight was the first to awake, she made her way down and found Serana talking with Lucien. "No way, you really pulled something like that before I even got here?! I feel kind of bad for her." Twilight instantly knew what they were talking about.
"Uh hi, is Scar up?" Twilight asked as the two turned their attention to her.
"No, because he lost his powers, he basically has to go through vampirism again. So he'll be asleep for the whole day." Twilight frowned at this, and Lucien walked off. Serana got closer to Twilight and whispered, "Just between us, you LIKE Scar don't you?" Twilight started blushing deeply.
"W-w-what?! N-n-no!" She exclaimed in the most unconvincing way she could, and Serana just smiled.
"Well I don't mind if you like him, but I'm still not gonna let you have him." She says smiling with both certainty and kindness. "By the way, when we first become vampires, we lose our minds for a couple days. Scar and one of our friends found a song that describes it. If he even sees a guitar he will want to play it and sing it at least once, hopefully he doesn't sing it in its original language. Though it does sound better that way." Serana realized she was rambling and shook her head to stop. "Sorry."
"It's fine, I do that a lot too." Twilight said and they both smiled. "So what genre is this song?"
"Depending on how he plays it, it will either be hard rock or heavy metal. We first thought of these genres only a month ago, because the song didn't fit with anything." She said, and this confused Twi for a second. 'So throughout dimensions there is a balance of technology and magic, the more magic the slower the technological advances.'
"He also has another song, he taught me to play it. It's a metal version of one of the songs of the Dragonborn, it's mostly instrumental though." Twilight brightened up by this. "Alright, I guess you do want me to play it." She said smiling, Twilight surprisingly had a variety of instruments in her basement, she teleported a guitar to them and gave it to Serana. "Alright, this might be a little loud." She says as she tunes the instrument. [youtube=http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=yDE2VQzghp4 ]
"That was AWESOME!" Serana was so in the moment of what she was playing she hadn't noticed the rest of the mane 6 had woken up. "What the hay was that!" Dash was extatic at what she had just heard.
"That was heavy metal. We first came up with the name because this music sounds harder than rock." She said smiling at the mare. "Scar is a little better at it."
"Hey where is Scar?" Dash asked, scanning the room.
"He's sleeping, and he's probably gonna be sleeping all day due to the return of his vampiric powers." Twilight answered.
"TWIIIIIIIILIIIIIIIIGHT!" They turned around to see Spike, who was both worried and angry, but then confused. "Two things. First of all how the heck is this place so big? Second where have you been?" The little dragon answered and then turned his gaze to Serana. "And who are you?" She responded by chuckling and shifting back into her original form, this struck Spike speechless.
"The name is Serana, and who are-" She was interrupted by the dragon once again.
"MUTANT CHANGELING!" He screamed, this just annoyed Serana, she was used to people screaming and yelling at her for being a vampire, but he just called her something she'd never heard of and on top of that, he interrupted her. She bat swarmed between him and the door so he could not start a panic in town, then she picked the nuisance up and swarmed over to Twi.
"Twilight, is this 'thing' yours?" She asked while holding the still screaming dragon.
"Unfortunately yes. Sorry Serana." She then turned her gaze to the dragon. "Spike!" The dragon immedietly stopped screaming. "You almost just got the entire town terrified of Serana apologize."
"But Twilight she's a mutant change-" Spike was interrupted with a hoof but in his mouth.
"Spike, this is not a changeling, this is Serana. She is Scars' girlfriend." Spikes' eyes widened and he now was staring at Serana, now noticing she was actually kinda hot.
"Hi." She said to the annoying lizard that could have ruined it for her, she then morphed back into the form of a pony. "Twilight I am going to go check-up on Scar. I will be back in a minute." Then she walked off towards Scars' room.
"Uhh Twilight did something happen, why would she need to check up on him?" Spike asked, completely confused.
"Sorry Spike I can't exactly tell you, I swore not even to tell the princess." Spikes' eyes widened, as he thought there was nothing she wouldn't tell the princess. "Anyway let's go check on Scar as well, Twilight and Spike walked into the room, and saw Serana kiss Scar as he slept. Twilight was both embarrassed and shocked at what she just saw, while Spikes jaw hit the floor.
Serana hasn't even turned to them, "So you gonna say anything or just enjoy the show, Twilight, you like him more than you think." Twilight was baffled and Spike, just kept looking back and forth between Twilight and Scar. "Anyway where would you and the girls like to go today?" Twilight snapped out of her stupor.
"Well, I thought we could introduce you to some of the ponies around the town, and I'm surprised Pinkie hasn't thrown either of you an enormous party yet, and hopefully soon we can introduce you to Celestia." She said naming things of the top of her head.
"Well I think we should get that last one out of the way as quickly as possible, unlike Scar, I think that if she could create such a peaceful kingdom as this she must have some tolerance." Serana said this and Twilight smiled.
"Well I'll write her a letter and she should come back as soon as possible." Twilight said cheerfully.
"Sooooo, what should we do to kill the time." Rainbow asked.
"Well, Scar and I would go hunting in our world, but I'm guessing that isn't exactly welcome here." Serana said and they nodded, slightly disturbed that they would kill out of boredom. "Oh!" they were now listening attentively. "Well, you all know how Dash got to ride Odahviin but no one else could?" They nodded and Dash was smiling. "How would you all feel about flying on the wings of bats." They were slightly nervous but excited nonetheless. "Alright everyone hold on to eachother." She said this and took Twilight's hoof and they each connected with the one holding on to Twilight and so on. "Now, any specific destination?"
"My library, it looks like a large tree in ponyville." Serana nodded and they formed into a huge swarm of bats and flew across the sky then through the window of Twilight's library. They switched back after hovering for a few seconds. "Woah, that was, amazing." Twilight said after she returned to her normal form. "So uh, what do we do now?" She wondered, not wanting to bore her new friend.
"Well as much as I know you will all disagree, I need to get some combat practice in." When she said this all of the girls, except Dash cringed.
"I'll do it, just no magic okay?" She asked the last part sheepishly.
"Sure, the only one I can use magic on without really hurting them is Scar." She smiled a bit when she said his name. "Anyway, let's get a little ways out of town, we don't want the populace freaking out now do we." She said before bat swarming the group a good mile out of town. "Alright let's get started." Serana raised her arms, ready to attack or defend, Dash entered a combat stance that Serana could barely take seriously. "Looks like you need combat practice as well."
"HEY!" Dash shouted, offended by that insult, she then charged straight at Serana, who simply side stepped then brought a leg up into Dash's side.
"Analyze your opponent, I could tell speed was one of your strengths, but your reaction time was slowed when you let emotions take over. You can't fall victim to them in an actual fight, that will be the end of you." Serana said as she helped Dash back up.
"Wow just how much time did you and Scar have to spend fighting things in your world?" Dash asked the royal vampire.
"We had to fight every day when we weren't in one of the towns or cities. We learned how to fight long before we met eachother, but the bandits kept our skills in check." Dash's jaw had dropped, she had heard about the bandits from Scar, but she hadn't thought there were THAT many of them. "But that was only when we weren't looking for a fight, we would constantly accept bounty for slaying creatures that have been harming civilians, like bandit chiefs, giants, and dragons." They were amazed by this, they couldn't believe they would go looking for a fight.
The two continued their sparring, Serana was keeping her skill intact, while Dash was getting better and better. They kept sparring for a few more hours, eventually Dash was too tired to keep going, in turn they all headed back to castle Volkihar. When they entered however, they were stunned.
Scar was in the form of a human, not Argonian, human. He was also tied up by golden plate armored Pegasi.
"PUT HIM DOWN NOW!" The 6 turned to see Serana, whose hands were radiating an ominous crimson.
"It's another one GUARDS! Restrain it!" They turned to see a white unicorn who had a regal, but obnoxious tone to it. Rarity was now instantly pissed off.
"I WILL SAY ONE MORE TIME! PUT HIM DOWN!" Seranas' voice was louder than that of Luna.
The guards responded to that by charging, Serana drew a dagger built from dragon bone. One of the guards drove a spear straight into Serana, the 6 were about to scream. When they saw Serana vanish into a cloud of mist, she rematerialized behind the guard, and drove her dagger into the back of its shoulder, forcing it to drop the spear. She then turned her eyes to the other guard, her eyes flashed green and the guard stopped in its place.
"Hey would you mind restraining your boss?" She asked the hypnotized guard, it nodded, turned around, and held Blueblood down.
"What are you doing you foal, I am the prince?!" He shouted at his guard.
"He can't hear anything except the sound of my voice, vampiric seduction works wonders on my enemies." She said with an evil smile on her face. "Now, tell me, why in oblivion did you tie up my friend?" She asked the anger coming back into her voice.
"There was a pony that supposedly saved Equestria, Celestia told me to come and thank him myself. I get here and there is this BEAST lying in the bed." She responded to the insult by kicking him in the stomach. "You think you can get away with this you monster!"
"I'm not the one going around tying up heroes, and assaulting women you pampered, rude, arrogant, undeserving prince." He was about to open his mouth to insult her, but she slapped him. "I am Serana, Queen of the Volkihar vampires. You just tried to kidnap the king." His jaw dropped, she then turned to the 6. "If I were to stab this bastard, would you testify it was self defense?"
"No!" All of the girls shouted, shocked by this display, except for Rarity who shouted, "Yes!" The girls turned to her, and she looked back at them and said. "What? She said stab not kill." Blueblood was shocked by this more than anything.
"Well, that's one way to wake up." The girls (yes that includes Blueblood) turned to see a now freed Scar, who was still a human. "Not gonna question the SECOND new form I've had within the week. But who is the pony that Serana and that enthralled guard are holding down?"
"They tied you up in your sleep, then tried to kill me."
"Oh, can we kill him?" Scar asked the group, and they were even more shocked. "Fine, but can I at least stab him?"
"Get in line Scar."
"Okay."
"Wait! Just explain to Blueblood that you were the one that saved he town!" Twilight shouted and Bluebloods' eyes widened.
"IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOU'VE DONE! YOU THINGS ARE MONSTERERS!" Then there was a familiar sound, the group looked at Scar who was now a vampire lord again.
"DON'T YOU FUCKING SPEAK, YOU DON'T DESERVE YOU TITLE YOU WHELP!" The entire group was terrified, except for Rarity, she was smiling. "You were born into your power, therefore you do not understand it, and unlike me or Serana you did not earn it. I fought the kingdom I now rule, I defeated the previous tyrant king. And am now in a relationship with that bastards daughter. Who was so dedicated to doing the right thing, that she left the comfort of her kingdom and fought beside me on the front lines to stop her father." He had calmed down and then returned to his human form.
"Blueblood, your people respect your title, they do not respect you. No matter who you are you must earn respect. Our subjects respect us, we do not act like their superiors, we treat them as friends, as equals. You should learn that form of compassion." Serana said as she released the prince. "Guard I release you from your binding." Her eyes flashed again and the guard blinked for a second
"Prince what happened?" He said as he helped Blueblood up.
"Just pick up the other guard, we are leaving." He said with his usual tone.
The rest sat there in an awkward silence for what seemed like an hour. Rarity then ran up and hugged both of the royal undead.
"Alright then. Serana I'm going to go and get my royal armor, I will be right back."
"That was awesome, you didn't tell us you can turn into mist." Dash said to Serana.
"We wanted to avoid telling you about the powers that only vampire lords can wield. We can also enhance our reflexes to the point that it seems like time has slowed down for us. We can also summon gargoyles, paralyze enemies, levitate them and drain the very life from them. While a mist we recover our health and strength. We can also raise the dead to fight for us." The girls jaws had dropped at reflexes.
"Also while we're in that.... Other form, we have bats fly around us and feed on any hostiles, by the way we can also see in the night as clear as day." They looked and saw Scar fully clothed in armor similar to that of Serana's. They then looked to his head, he had a golden rimmed crown with a beautiful crystal in the center.
"Soooooo how is it that I'm human?" Scar asked while staring at the group, Serana included.
"Um, I might have an idea." Serana said almost nervously. "When a vampire turns someone they leak a little bit of their blood into the one getting turned, because you were already a vampire, when I turned you, you must have also gained my morphing spell, which made your default species human. Just think about your pony form and you will go back to it." She explained.
"Uh wow that's useful." Scar said completely unfazed by the sudden change.
"So let me get this straight, you lost all of your powers when you saved us before, and now you have your vampire powers left PLUS the ability to shape-shift?" We nodded, "awesome."
"Darling could I just ask what that magnificent crystal in your crown is?" Scar started smiling at the fashionista.
"This Rarity, is aetherium, it is a mineral that was plentiful during the creation of my world. In my crown is the last piece on Nirn. My crown is also bound to the power of the shadow stone, allowing me to turn invisible for an extensive amount of time, once a day."
"So that is the only aetherium left on either of our worlds. Why is it that their are so many once a day powers?"
"I believe it is because if any bad people got their hands on these powers, they would be able to use it for very extensive evil. Enough of this though, would you like to hear my story of being within the Thieves guild? It actually ends quite interestingly." They were hesitant to hear about my experience as a thief, but were interested nonetheless. "Well it all started in the city of Riften..."
Twilight was going through her library AGAIN. She was just about to finish reorganizing the ancient legends section, when she came across a book she had never seen before. It was titled "The Tale of the Dragonborn". She was confused as she thought she had read every book in her library ........ Twice. She read through the book and read Everything that was in the book of the Dragonborn, from being able to slay evil dragons absorb their power and use for them self. To the prophecy of the World Eater returning but being slain by the Dragonborn. She became curious as she read the last sentence is the book t seemed to be glowing. It was supposedly a one time use of the Dragonborn's power.
"Strun Zii Gut" (yes I just crossed three different shouts). Upon Twilight's speaking of that sentence, over the Everfree Forest a Maelstrom formed sending a large stream of lightening straight into the center of the forest and all of Equestria was flooded with an incredible amount of magic, in far off areas certain Pegasi and earth ponies began to cast low level spells from their hooves. This however only lasted a few moments as the world finished absorbing the magic overload. Twilight was both in awe as she thought, 'this is the power of the Dragonborn' and terrified as she thought what else may have come through that explosion of magic. She decided to send the princess a letter explaining he situation and the brief summary of the Dragonborn.
"Spike!" Twilight shouted. "Get the girls and meet me at the Everfree Forest." Spike ran outside to gather the Mane 6, of course he would have to get Fluttershy before Dash since Dash lives in a cloud. Twilight had to prepare everything she had, including the Elements of Harmony.
An hour later the mane six were gathered outside of the Everfree Forest. "So Twi what happened." Applejack was the first to break the silence.
"I-I think I may have summoned a legend to the forest," she said nervously as they all looked at her like she was crazy. "Did you see that huge lightning storm above it a little while ago?" They nodded, "That happened after I read the last page of this book out loud." She showed them the last page of the book.
"What's a Dragonborn?" Dash asked confused.
"Oooooh is it like a newborn dragon!?!" Pinkie pie shouted.
"No, it is some sort of bipedal creature, and they or one of their ancestors had done such good in their life they were granted the blood and soul of a dragon." Twilight said, quoting from the book.
" Well if this thing is that powerful and it's here we should get going and find it." Applejack said slightly frightened by the being Twilight had described.
They ventured through the forest, heading towards its' center. They neared a clearing and found all of the grass in this area had been burnt away.
"What the heck." Dash exclaimed as she then heard the growls of a pack of manticores.
"Nooooononono No! I came out here to find a legend I don't want to even see those beasts." Rarity exclaimed while trying to climb up a tree like her cat. The bat winged monsters began to move from the trees, their jaws watering for the feast before them. As they approached Twilight raised a field to protect her friends but unfortunately the Applejack had chosen to run of jus before it formed to buck one of them in the chest. The manticore in front slashes at the earth pony, wounding her severely.
"Applejack no, quick get back in the shield." Twilight screamed. The manticore stood over the wounded earth pony about to chomp down on her.
"Fus Ro Dah!" The unknown language thundered, as the pack of manticores flew back most of them slamming into trees. Before the mane 6 stood a tall figure within black cloaked figure. "Mul Qah Diiv!" He shouted once more, he was now surrounded in a dancing light as he appeared to be wearing some sort of spiritual armor. The helm had that resembling that of dragon horns. He the walked over to the immobile orange earth pony. He held out his hands which started to glow a bright golden light. All of AJ's wounds healed themselves almost immediately. "Take your friend and get in that cave, you won't want to be out in the open for this." He said pointing one of his gloved digits to a small cavern. As soon as the Mane 6 were fully inside it they stared at the hooded creature in awe. He stared down the now standing beasts, "Strun Bah Qo!" Twilight recognized the first word, and once the last word floated from his mouth, a shockwave similar to the one that had occurred before sounded. Summoning another maelstrom, this one struck down each and every one of the manticores, Dash could only squeal as the biped manipulated the weather to such a degree as to use it in combat. They were about to walk out to properly greet the being when he shouted one last time for the time being. "Lok Vah Koor!" Quickly the dark ominous and violent skies cleared, leaving behind a clear and bright warm sky.
Rainbow Dash immediately flew up to the creature and greeted him with such glee she would have put Pinkie to shame. "HeyIAmRainbowDashWhoAreYouHowDidYouDoThat?!?!?!?"
"My friends call me Scar." He said as he pulled down his hood revealing reptilian features, "And as for how I did that, I am Dragonborn." Twilight's eyes started to glow with the knowledge that yet another legend is true. "I apologize if this is rude, but where am I and what are you?" He asked the still shocked mares.
"We are ponies and you are in Equestria Mr.Scar." Twilight answered after a few moments of awkward silence. "Do you happen to have any other magic besides your voice?" She asked wanting to see what else he could do.
"I have mastered all forms of magic from where I come from," he began. "It would take a week to show you everything." As he said this Twilight's jaw broke he stone floor of the cave. "However I can get me and one other person to town very quickly, so who wants to?" Rainbow Dash responded by immediately hugging his face. "Okay but we will have to wait about ten seconds for him to get here, Od Ah Viin!" Nothing seemed to happen, but then they heard a roar. They knew what it must have been and they were all about to hide, when a full grown red and gray dragon landed on the ground in front of Scar.
"Dovahkiin why has thou called me to this strange place." The dragon spoke softly for a creature his size.
"I want you to give me and this mare here," he gestured to Rainbow Dash. "A ride to the edge of the forest close to the nearest town." He said sternly as though it was he was commanding it, not asking it.
"Very well Dovahkiin climb on and I shall deliver you." He said and lowered his head to allow Scar and Dash to get on, needless to say Dash was speechless. After all she was about to ride a dragon.
Scar got on the dragon's head and held on with one hand on it's horn, the other hand was holding the young Pegasus as it sat in his lap. With one powerful flap he three were now towering above the forest, and it merely took a couple seconds before the dragon circled around, about to land outside of the Everfree.
"Well Twi ah hope that was the kind of thing you expected from your legend." Applejack said, still coming to terms with what the heck just happened. Twilight looked over to notice Rarity's eyes wide open.
"Rarity what's wrong?" Twilight asked.
Rarity snapped out of her vice, "N-nothing Twilight, I was just thinking." Twilight new Rarity was hiding something but she knew it would do no good to pester her about it right now. Twilight decided to teleport them to Dash and Scar. As soon as they got their she noticed that for a second that look came across Rarity's face again, this time only for a second. "Mr.Scar I was just wondering where did you get that amulet of yours it is absolutely priceless?" Rarity pointed at the gold and diamond necklace that Scar was wearing.
"This?" Scar looked at her for a second strangely. "This was a special token my friend gave me as a gift for helping her." He said with a sad smile on his face, making it clear he hasn't seen his friend in a while. "But, enough about the past, Sanguine would kill me if I didn't get to have some fun in this world."
"Who is Sanguine?" Twilight asked.
"Sanguine is one of the Daedric Princes, but don't let the name fool you the princes are genderless. Before I tell what Sanguine specifically is I will explain the Daedric Princes." Scar began, "In my world we have several gods who protect us and give us guidance, we call them Aedra." Twilight instantly though of Princess Celestia when he said this. "We also have several creatures known as the Daedric Princes, each of them is almost as powerful as the Aedra. However the Daedric Princes do not hold the same principles as the Aedra, some of them are quite cruel and evil and will only bestow gifts upon those that entertain them. And while some of them are not entirely evil and one or two may even be nice, they each hold their own law that may be helpful or hurtful to the world. There is Sanguine the Daedric Prince of mischief and merriment, he enjoys pulling pranks and bringing happiness similar to that which one would experience at a party." Pinkie Pie instantly started glowing, which confused Scar a bit. "Next there is Azura, no one knows quite what she enjoys but she can see into the future and if one pleases her they may get a gift or their fortune told. Then there is Mephala, she enjoys whispering to people as if she was their inner thoughts, she tugs on the strings of trust, love, friendship, anger, hate, and deceit. The one she can influence but not cause however is betrayal she loves it when mortals do that." They all shuddered at the thought of what she would do in Equestria. "Next is Boethiah she likes death, lots of it, it creeps me out. Hermaeus Mora Daedric Prince of forbidden knowledge, basically if it exists he knows about it. Next is Sheogorath, he is my second favorite, he causes chaos, it's simple and yet it isn't he has the imagination of a four year old on a sugar rush and the power to destroy a mountain with a flick of his hand, one of his favorites is explosive cheese." Dash made a joke that Sheo might be Discords father. "Then there is Meridia, she is the Daedric Prince of light, she imbued a blade with the very power of the sun to destroy dark creatures of my world, unfortunately, even if they weren't evil." This made Fluttershy almost cry. "Then there is Clavicus Vile, the trickster, basically any deal made with him would ruin someones life, if not yours. Now the three worst of the Daedra," at that statement the girls prepared themselves for what they were about to hear. "Basically Namibia, the Daedric Prince of everything that is vile," most of the girls didnt see what was wrong with that part. "She turned most of her worshippers into cannibals." All of the girls looked like they were about to throw up. "Then Molag Bol and Mehrunes Dagon, Molag wanted to rule everything as a tyrant, while Dagon simply hated those that were weak, if you were weak and he had the opprotunity he would kill you." Scar was saddened by everything he just said but then, he smiled. "But for each of these there is a complete opposite, and they are the Aedra, each of them represented something different, but they all held the same six common atributes. Honesty," Applejack's ears perked up, "Loyalty" Rainbow Dash just smiled, "Generosity". Rarity knew where this was going, "Happiness" Pinkie was still glowing like a supernova. "Kindness" Fluttershy started to come out from behind Applejack. "And a hell of a lot of magic." Twilight was just smiling because of how cheesy this whole moment was.
"Anyway we should be getting to town I'll need to rest if I know what Sanguine and that pink one have planned for me." He said while walking to town.
"Wait, the ponies of ponyville will probably be really terrified when they see you." When Twilight said that Scar just got a look in his eye.
"I would prefer to make a direct impression on them, if I am not honest like I was with you, then how will any of them come to trust me and what's more why would I deserve their trust." He looked down at the mare and smiled.
"Yes, Applejack he is the kind of legend I was hoping for." She said turning to her friend.
As the group walked into the town just as predicted, everyone lost their fucking minds. Upon sight ponies started running to their homes and locking their doors screaming things to garbled to understand. "Well in all seriousness this isn't the worst reaction I got to entering a town." He said still smiling, "And don't ask because I won't tell you." he said looking at Twilight. Once they had reached Twilight's library he practically collapsed onto a couch. Scar then activated telekinesis to grab a book off the shelf and started reading for a moment before putting it back. "Oh I almost forgot, Pinkie I have a gift for you." Everyone looked at him with that 'WHY, WHY HER JUST WHY' look on their face. Scar clapped his hands twice and a creepy looking red faced bipedal creature in robes appeared. "Hello I assume you have been taking care of my stuff." Scar said looking at the creature.
"Yes master and what is it you would like from your inventory." It replied back
"Would you please give me Sanguine's Rose." The being materialized a large staff resembling a rose and gave it to Scar.
"Thank you you may go." The being nodded before vanishing into a black vortex yet again.
"Um what was that." Twilight asked half scared half curious about the being that was just in her home.
"That Twilight is a Dremora, they are the servants of the Daedra. But after making it through one of Hermaeus Mora's realms I got him as a butler." Scar said smiling as he held the staff. "And this is Sanguine's Rose, it has the power to summon a Dremora warrior in case of emergency. And I'm giving it to Pinkie because she reminds me so much of the staff's creator." He smiled and handed the staff to Pinkie. "By the way do you mind if I summon another friend, he is one of the few I think I can bring to this world and he won't hurt anyone unless they attack me first." Twilight nodded, and suddenly a blue vortex appeared, leaving behind a ghostly figure. "This is Lucien Lachance." The ghostly figure got a hold of his new surroundings and bowed to Twilight as he could tell this was her home.
"Well he sure is polite." Was the only thing Twilight could say before a pink blur sped by her and enveloped Lucien and Scar in a hug.
"Oh thank you I love the rose, and tell Sanguine I said thanks too!" She exclaimed before speeding off to plan for a party tomorrow.
"I honestly wouldn't be suprised if that were Sanguine's daughter." Scar said smiling as everyone just stared at him for a second.
"Anyway," He said as he began to lay down on the couch. "I am really getting tired, I've been up for almost a year straight." They were about to question if he was exaggerating when he fell asleep in an instant. They all though to themselves the exact same thing 'Today has been an eventful day'.
