Peace and Death

I slowly opened my eyes as the first rays of the sun hit me in the face. Now then I yawned Today I shall get to the bottom of this. I thought as I recalled the events of the last night I will find out what was protecting that filly and when I do the fun really starts... I grinned and lifted my self up from the tiny bed.

Perhaps I should check on my kind host first I turned towards the door I have to remember my manners after all I levitated towards the door and opened it.

As I made my way down the stairs, I could see the house much more clearly in the broad morning light. The walls were decorated with different kinds of paintings and the windows had flower stands on them. Miss Fluttershy has a good taste in decoration I glanced at the paintings It fits with her character quite well actually  I reached the main floor and noticed different kinds of critters running around the room, birds were happily chirping in their cages, the squirrels stuffing their faces with food and bunnies hopping around. She also seems to have a love for animals.. My thinking was cut short when I heard the voice of the mare in question.

"Good morning mister Tom!" She happily trotted from the kitchen and I bowed my head in respect.

"Good morning to you as well miss Fluttershy" I politely greeted the mare. " I was just in the middle of examining your beautiful house" I complimented causing her to blush a little. It was now that I finally noticed  her folded wings. The pegasi type I mentally confirmed and continued. " You also seem to have a thing for animals am I right?" I questioned.

"I am a animal caretaker actually" She gave a carrot to a white bunny " Its my special talent and my passion" She proudly stated.

"Indeed it is.." I muttered as the birds landed atop of me.

"Do you want to join me for breakfast?" Fluttershy asked. I guess it would be a good time to indulge myself with the local cuisine

"With pleasure miss Fluttershy" I softly smiled and followed the mare to the kitchen.

"I hope you like daisy sandwiches" She said as she went to get the proper silverware.

"Daisy sandwiches.." I deadpanned. Ponies.... I thought as I tried to find a place where to sit.

"I have to apologize for not having proper seats for you mister Tom"

"I believe that its best if I stand" I leaned against the wall. "My anatomy makes it hard to do things like these" It also makes it hard to digest flowers, by Abaddons ass crack even a wood spirit would faint by just seeing this food...

"It must be hard to live in a big coffin like that" She brought the plate with the small sandwich to me.

" I will admit that its hard sometimes" I gently took the sandwich and ate it with a single bite. Ugh....

" Do you like it?" She sweetly tilted her head.

"Yes" I flashed her a forced smile."Its very delicious"

*Knock* Knock* Knock*

Wonderful... I sighed as I heard the door knock.

"No one usually comes over this early, I wonder who it is?"  She made her way towards the door.

"I shall stay in the kitchen since my appearance may give the wrong first impression" I called after her.

"Umm...Okay" She sounded uncertain, but nodded her head and left my field of vision to answer the door.

Though I don't know whats wrong with my appearance..........It must be the color of the coffin

"Fluttershy!" A scratchy voice cried out from the living room followed by a loud crash.

"W-w-whats going on?" I heard Fluttershy ask.

"You have to come with me! Some weird suit wearing bipedal alien that looks like a corpse has started to attack the village!"

Wait a second...No...It cant be..

"An alien?"  The mares voice trembled.

"Yeah It has already taken out all of the royal guards and Twilight is currently trying to hold it back. We need the elements to stop this thing before its too late!"

"Wait Dash! I have a gues-"

"No time!" I heard Fluttershy eep again and the door rapidly closing .

I peeked from the kitchen and sure enough the living room was empty. A bipedal alien that wears a suit? I groaned What is another human wraith doing here!? Then it hit me It wants the souls of these ponies as well! My eyes narrowed Insolent fool! The souls of these ponies belong to me and me only! They belong to the God of Death!

I roared in fury and crashed trough the ceiling, leaving the stunned animals behind.

Ponyville

Entrance

The first thing that I noticed was the rising smoke from the village while I rocketed towards it. I'm getting sick of these interruptions I snarled. Why is it so hard to gather the pesky souls of these ponies!? I frustratingly thought as I landed at the town entrance.

"Welcome to Ponyville...." I read the sign at loud.

"Aaah! Its because they are ponies! How silly of me! Kiyahahaaa......" I laughed to myself and snapped my fingers,causing the sign to explode into peaces." A truly wonderful village this is" I gleefully made my way towards the center of the village.

I glanced at the street and noticed that it was littered with ponies garbed in golden armors. Did these ponies really think that they would have stood a chance against a wraith? How pathetic.. My thinking was cut short when a heard a scream of pain from the town center. Leave some for me, you damn wraith! I fastened my pace.

Ponyville

Center

I finally reached the source of the scream and noticed two figures standing at the center. One was a heavily bruised purple unicorn mare. The other one was a fairly tall man who was wearing an elegant tuxedo with coat tails, dress gloves, and had short brown hair, but what drew my attention more was his blue corpse like skin.

"Such a disappointment, Is this all that the mighty element of magic has to offer?" The man spoke with a British accent. Another human with a British accent.....

The unicorn tried to get up,but failed when the man brought his foot down against her head. "If wasn't so corrupted I would feel sorry for you"  He grinned as he kicked the mare against the wall.

"Leave her alone!" I heard the scratchy voice shout while a blue blur charged towards him.

"Foolish!" The man gleefully yelled as he jumped and drop kicked the blur causing it to crash to the ground.

When the dust cleared a rainbow maned pegasi was laying unconscious on the ground. Its time to step in before my precious souls get wasted I cleared my throat.

"Hmm?" The man turned towards me, his eyes widening in surprise. "Now what in the world are you?"  He questioned while scanning my appearance.

"Someone whose going to send you to the netherworld" I grinned.

"Those are some big words" He narrowed his eyes."Do you really think that you stand a chance against a wraith of Death?"

"Why don't you find out?" I taunted causing his glare to intensify.

"So be it!"  He grinned as his arms began glowing green.He moved them in a circle as a projectile was formed.

"Disappear!" He yelled in glee as he threw a carriage wheel that was coated in green flames towards me. I quickly closed my coffin causing the projectile to shatter into pieces.

"What!?" He growled in anger. I opened my coffin and smirked at him. Its time to have some fun I snapped my fingers, sending a fireball towards the wraith. It struck the surprised wraith in the chest. "Giyaah!" He screamed in pain as he crashed against the wall.

"You were saying?" I grinned. The wraith shakily rose up, clenching his burned gut. " You insolent whelp!" He ran towards me while his hands glowed green. Deciding to make things more interesting I also charged.

The deranged wraith grinned and snapped his fingers causing rotten hands to sprout from the ground,grabbing me and sealing my movements. "You are mine!" He yelled and charged at me with a barrage of punches. Noticing this I teleported behind him. Too easy I chuckled as the confused wraith slowly turned towards me. "Hello there" I whispered with malice.

"Impossi-" The wraith was interrupted when I pierced his right shoulder with my horn."Nothing is impossible" I laughed and ripped his right arm of with a good swing of my head.

"GYAAAH!" He screeched in pain and stumbled backwards, green blood oozing from his wounds.

"I believe its time to end our little fight" I teleported right in front of him, his eyes widening in fear." Enjoy your flight" I smiled and punched him with a force of a steamroller in the gut hearing a satisfying crack of bones in the process as the wraith was sent flying towards the sky.

"Mister Tom!" I turned around. Fluttershy stood there with five other ponies all of them wearing some kind of necklaces.She was helping the purple one stand. " Please leave the rest to us" The purple one said.

"As you wish" I addressed her. The mare nodded her head and the ponies got into a position. I turned my head towards the airborne wraith who was now slowly starting to fall down.

"I shall obliterate you with all of my might!" The wraith yelled in anger as his only arm glowed green once again. A green sphere flew from his hand and morphed into a black carriage with three skeletal horses. " Begone!" The carriage rocketed towards the ground at break neck speed.

I glanced at the ponies and noticed that they had started hovering in air. What in the worl- My thoughts were halted when a bright rainbow emerged from the ponies and was launched towards the wraith at full speed.

"The elements!?" The wraith could only watch as his carriage was obliterated into pieces. "No.." The rainbow got closer and closer."NOOOO!" He screamed as the rainbow hit him surrounding him in a bright light.

The ponies landed on the ground while a statue fell from the sky. I stared at the statue, which was that of a petrified  wraith.

What a pathetic way of finishing someone off........ I made my way towards it. " I will show how its really done" I grinned and brought my hand back, ready to crush the statue.

"Wait Mister Tom!" You must be kidding me....... I thought as I turned towards the ponies, who were cautiously staring at me. I hope that Fluttershy has my back cowered....

"Yes?" I asked and the purple one stepped forward.

"We need to talk" She glared at me. Yes.. she will be the first to have her soul ripped now... I darkly thought.

"Of course. Lead the way" I bowed my head.  If this mares dares to disrespect me as a gratitude for saving her rotten soul, I shall personally grill her on a fire and eat her...
