ThEternal Saga pt. 1: The Beginning Of Freedom
Chapter Six: The Phoenix
Previous ChapterTWILIGHT:
We saw Spike drive the alicorn away from us, I loved that he tried to save us. "Spike! I'm so glad to have you back! Why'd you run away?" I asked Spike, though I was furious with him, I still wanted him to come back to the library. "Spike, dear, why in the WORLD did you leave?" Rarity asked him. "Because of TWILIGHT!" He said in a 'I thought you'd have figured out why by now' voice. "But... Spike you should have told me... Who's this?" I asked looking at the black stallion, who was looking at me as if he fell in love with me. "I am Void, leader of timber wolf pack alpha, and guardian of-" He cut off right when he said 'of.' Of what? "I'm sorry... I don't like to talk about my life..." He said. "That's okay, but you live with timber wolves? How come they don't attack you?" I asked. "They don't attack me because they think I'm one of them." He said back to me... I was still wandering if he fell in love with me... the way he stares... "Uh... Twilight Sparkle-" I cut him off. "How do you know my name?" I asked. "Spike." He answered. "Ah, okay" I said.
SPIKE:
I was happy to see Rarity. "Rarity, um... I-I really didn't want to leave..." I told Rarity... "Oh, Spike, darling it's okay but that alicorn? Who was that?" She asked, confused. "His name is Demon Cloud-" "OH MY GOODNESS! Are those onyx gems?!" She asked Void. "Uh... Yes? Do you want some? Cause I have, like, 22 more at my cave and some tea if anypony's interested?" Void asked everypony. "I think we should go girls, to learn about that alicorn that attacked us..."
VOID:
Okay so, I think Twilight knows I am in love with her, great, ugh... "Okay so my cave should be- WHAT THE HAY IS THAT!?" I shouted out when I saw an enormous bird fly out in front of me... And landed on Spike? What? "Infernous? What are you doing here? I thought I put you back with your family..." Spike knew the phoenix? Hmm... "Well we're here... Huh? Where did my pack- DEMON CLOUD!" He was back and he looked ticked... Dang it... "Okay, Everypony I need you to turn to shadow, just focus your energies towards your shadow." I told everypony. "Why would we want to do that? Couldn't we use the elements of harmony?" They asked. "No, He would absorb the elements..." I said... It'd be very foolish to try and use the elements against him... "What? He... He... He wouldn't be able to do that... Would he?" Twilight asked. "He can... And he will... Demon Cloud is more or less the keeper of death... And the destroyer of happiness..." I said to them all. "Now turn to shadow and fight! We need to defend my cave I'll go get my armor that the princess gave to me." Did I REALLY just say that out loud? yes, yes I did... dang it... "Wait you know the princess? How is that?" Twilight asked... I didn't want to say but I had to... "Okay... It all started when you came to PonyVille... I was just taking a vacation to Canterlot... And the princess was out for some reason... She must have been invisible to everypony else BUT me cause I can sense the magical energies of other ponies... Including her... This is how i know her... Know her well... Well enough to Walk into the royal palace, she was kind and told me that i have an ability like no other... Though I'm almost blind... In a way at least... I still see all magical aura... She gave me this armor that was enchanted... So i could see it... But I keep it in my cave so no one can get to it." I told them all... This is why I don't share much about myself... I may look like I have perfect sight but my eyes are deceiving... "Your... Your blind? Then how do you see everything?" They all asked. "I see the energies of everything... It's known as aura..." I said. "Aura? I've heard of aura before... The magic that surrounds all Equestria... I thought it wasn't real... Anyways let's get to shadowing! We just focus?" They asked. "Yes, though I am not turning to shadow, I am going to do this. I CALL UPON THE EARTH, GUIDE ME THROUGH MY TROUBLES!" Suddenly, rocks and gravel surrounded around me, then a sword developed around my rocky hoof. "WHOA! Void you didn't tell me you could do THAT!" Spike told me. "Reason why is cause this is WAY to hard to cast!" Then all of the others tried to turn to shadow, one minute later they did.
