Bound Shadows

(Vinyl's point of view)

Applejack, Rarity, Neiro, and I were all watching after Rarity and Applejack's sisters and one of their friends.

"AHH!!" Neiro yells out.

'Sounds like Applebloom tackled Neiro again.'

"Gah! How many times do I have to tell you to stop that?!" Neiro yelled at her.

"As many as it takes 'till it gets borin'," She says curtly.

"Applebloom stop tackali'n 'im," Applejack patronizes her sister.

"Ugh fine," Applebloom reluctantly obeyed and walked to her friends; Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo.

"Why are we watching them again? They seem old enough to take care of themselves," Neiro asks.

"They may be almost our age but they're very reckless and must be watched," Rarity explains, "But, if they behave themselves then we wouldn't have to do this."

"It's still nice that we can all hang out, right Neiro?" I ask. Neiro gives a simple "hmph." I see something flit about in the corner of my eye, "Huh?" Crimson eye's flash open from the shadows. The eyes dart around and eventually find the group, they then turn blood-red.

"Agh!" Neiro says as he clutches his head in pain.

"Neiro, are you okay?" I ask him.

"I'm fine!" He snarls, his eyes open for a moment and instead of them being their normal blood-red they are a deep, midnight-blue.

I look back to where I saw the other set of red eyes and see that they're missing. 'That better not have been what I think it was or we're all fucked.'

Neiro soon recovers and looks very shaken, he mutters, "No, it can't be, not here," under his breath.

"Neiro, what happened?" I ask him.

"It doesn't matter, just something that I'd rather leave forgotten," He answers.

Applebloom tackles Neiro again, "AGH!"

"Hah hah, 'ah gotcha 'gain!" She said triumphantly.

Applejack helps Neiro get up,"Ah apologize for mah' sister's actions."

"Eh, whatever," He shrugs her off, "See you guys later," He says coldly, walking towards the dorms.
