To The Shadows

"Hey watch it!" Dash said to Fluttershy. Ponyvile was full of hate, thanks to the shadow crystal pony in a hood and cloak. She was obviously a unicorn due to her magic. That wouldn't stop Soul Light though, he traced her steps to a shadow kingdom. Blocked by a force field, he divebombed and quickly broke through the force that limited his entrance. There he was greeted by several shadow guards, taken by hate and deciet. The one guard that caught Soul's eye was the guard he had seen years ago. Ginka. His eyes burned with a purple flame, his armor coal black, and had an aura of black fog. All the guards lunged at Soul, piercìng his wings with spears. Now 'crippled' he stands on his hooves and fought back against the shades. Punches never landed on them, but the forces landed on him.

This is ridiculous, I'm fighting the shadows

In Canterlot, Celestia sent the Wonderbolts to aid him. A few moments later, Soul was on his knees. Ginka had his spear in the air, about to stab his heart. A firey light tackled Ginka and other blue lights tackled the other guards. Still bleeding on his wings, he attempts to fly but end up crashing to the ground. The captain of the Wonderbolts aided him to fly. Soul Light, during his flight with this unknown pegasus, asked for her name.

"That's not important right now! Right now you got to get to whatever is doing this!"

Light can only nod while his wings made a red solid line and his feathers fell out one by one. Soul cannot help but feel that things were getting too easy for them. When they reached the top of the tower, chains lashed at them. Lines of purple fire engulfed their hooves, rendering them completely helpless.

" You dare invade my home?" The shadow crystal pony said.

"We are going to stop you! Here and now!" The Wonderbolt stares at her with fury.

"Contraire...You have just fell for my trap." She emitted a large sphere of necromancer magic and pushed every Wonderbolt away from the castle. "Now, Soulkeeper, are you going to be a good boy and surrender?"

"No."

"What?"

"He says no!"

"And who are you to speak for the Soulkeeper?"

"Spitfire, Captain of the Wonderbolts!"

"The elite flight group I see..." The shadow pony releases her cloak and hoof to show a broken horn. She conjures up a shadow horn to repair it. Her cutie mark was nothing but a shadow. She had dark eyes and white hooves. She stares at Spitfire, the mare who refused to give in. The shadow pony raises a hoof at her face and slaps her with a loud SMACK!!!

Meanwhile, Blood was trying to keep the peace between the Earth ponies, Unicorns, and Pegasi.

"Guys wait! You don't have to do this!" A mob of Pegasi holding protest signs that said 'Down with Unicorns', Unicorns holding 'No more Pegasi!' , And Earth ponies with 'No Magic, No Wings!'. The pegasus at the center was Blood, trying hard to negociate with all the protesting ponies.

"We can all get along! No fighting!" Soul Blood pleaded with everypony to not start a conflict until Dash tackled Applejack and set off the 'ON' button for fighting. Unicorns levatating and slamming pegasi. Earth ponies bucking and tieing up other ponies. Pegasi picking off easy targets one by one. The town was in chaos as fires started from building to building. Even the mayor fought against the other ponies. Nashadow used her poles to nearly stun the unicorns until Pinkie Pie came in and saw the chaos. She shed a tear at all the hatred in Ponyvile, she tried using jokes, parties, and even yelling. Everypony fought without concern, fighting to the death and murdering ponies everywhere.

Back at the shadow kingdom, Spitfire was tortured to giving up her decision for Soul Light. Soul Light, not wanting to get everypony hurt again, agreed to her terms. The shadow crystal pony cracked a smile and let go of the heavily bleeding mare pegasus.

"Aw, what's wrong? It is a priviledge to be my husband." Light now regretted what he said, and a tear came down his face. He was supposed to save Ponyvile from hate, now he needs Ponyvile to save him. Light was thrown into a king sized bed to 'entertain' the queen until tommorow. Not wanting to benifit the queen from his defeat, he decides to make a fake by secretly escaping and going to the mirror pool.

Soul Light went from building to building, hiding in the shadows. To get to the cave, he needs to do whatever it is nessessary to fake a wedding and sabotage the core of hate.

"So have you heard about the new king?" One of the shadow guards said. Another joined his converstation.

"Yeah, Ah'ma hurd dat he wus a pusseh."

Great! A drunken guard! Just what I need.

"Easy there with the cider man, you'll get fired from that." He takes another whip of cider in his hooves and stood guard next to the exit from the kingdom. Suddenly, alarms were fired off. A megaphone boomed over the kingdom, announcing that the future 'king' has escaped from his dungeon.

What kinda wife does that to his husband?

"Oh shit! We better get moving!" The drunk agreed and the other guard followed him out of the kingdom.

There's my chance!

Soul Light made a run for it. into the woods, past the trees, and into a dark cave. Light had a sudden urge to sneak, so he did what his instincts told him. The crystal shadow pony was there...at the mirror pool, whispering to herself. When Light came closer, hidden behind a rock, he heard what she had said.

"Oh...Soul Break, If only you didn't break up with me...Now your brother will suffer for that." The shadow pony casts a spell on the mirror pond, making a pure opposite of her. A light pony came out, its eyes were white and it had a fully healed horn instead of the caster. She talks in a sweet and gentle voice to the shadow crystal pony.

"Oh Medila...Will you ever learn?"

"I learned that he cannot be trusted, and that he must suffer for that."

"Medila...That is no way to treat your ex coltfriend."

"I know...but- I hear something." The light pony vanished, leaving her alone in the cave. Shadow guards went up to her and told her that her groom has escaped. She orders them to find him, and yet again left them alone in the cave. After what seemed like hours, she left the cave and Soul Light dived into the pool, making a big splash that the guards heard. The guards went after Soul Light and caught him by using a spear and lifting him up. The guards took him into custody.

Many were injured at Ponyvile, several closed down their shops, stores, and homes. The pegasi went back to Cloudsdale to prepare their attack on the Earth ponies at Sweet Apple Acres. Blood was injured badly, and a firey maned Wonderbolt helped her up to her hooves.

"Who are you?" She mutters as her wings lift her a few feet from the ground.

"I'm Spitfire, and you are in a lot of trouble." Spitfire explains the suituation on the way to Canterlot. Blood found out that he was captured and force to marry Medila, Soul Break's ex. Outraged and butthurt by the break up they had, she decided to let it out on his brother. To make him suffer until Soul Break would come crying back to her. They reached Celestia's chambers were the usual guards prepared for any threat. A certain white unicorn with a blue mane and magnificent armor asked how Ponyvile was doing. Once Spitfire told him, he was in shock.

Spitfire brought Celestia the news.

"We need Ponyvile to return back to normal. Send out reinforcements and save Light!"

"Understood!" The two mares saluted and returned to Ponyvile, where it lies in ruins. Stone, ash, broken belongings, everything you can imagine was there, worn and rusted. Blood searched everywhere and every thing she saw had blood on them. She touched the blood in her hoof and saw what happened in the eyes of a pegasus.

"Hey! What's going on here?"

"Oh nothing mu-" The guard charged at her, tackling and punching her with magic. Within seconds, the vision was gone.

"What did you see?" Blood told her the sights she saw, even though it was faint in her mind. Spitfire leads the other guards to the shadow kingdom. The sun rises and it was soon for the royal wedding to start.

                        

Soul Light was forced to move under dark magic. The stallion in front of him and his fiance stood with a book held in his magic grasp.

"Do you, Medila, take Soul Light as your husband?"

"I do," She smiles devilishly as she turns to see Soul Light struggling to escape.

"Do you, Soul Light, take Medila as your wife?"

"I-I-I-I" Soul struggled to keep his tongue and mouth shut. If he says the two words, he will be soul bound to her.

"I- I-I-I....D-D-D-D-D"

No NO NO NO!!!

"I D-D-D-D"

Medila forces her magic into him, making him say the words he won't say.

" I D-" Suddenly, Spitfire tackles the unicorn, freeing Light from her grasp.

"Weddings over!" Soul Blood hovers over her magic horn and breaks it to pieces.

"NOOOO!!!" Medila desperatly tries to put her shattered horn back together. She had no more magic to give hate throughout Ponyvile. Several ponies stopped their war and were confused for minutes. The shadow guards were free and so were the shadow ponies.

Soul Light proudly ran away saying, "Not today bitch!"
