Return of the Shadow League: chapter 1: the return of darkness
It was a calm and beautiful night in the everfree forest, and an unusually chilly wind, blew through the silent tree's, the animals had gone to sleep for the night. A mysterious black pony came slowly walking out of the tree line.
As he passed by, the flower's underneath his hooves wilted, as if he was death itself, and that he was, when he came to the middle of the clearing, the bright moon shined down on him, his coat was pure black, with a very dark blue mane, if one saw him, they might say he was the male opposite of nightmare moon.
He looked up, from where he was standing; he could see the capital of Equestria, Canterlot. He had personal business to attend to there, he lost his train of thought when he heard another set of hooves approaching from behind, his sharp senses, could hear the crunch of the grass, beneath the newcomer's hooves.
Well, it is a beautiful night, isn't it sir" he said coming up on the taller one's side, the taller pony, was an alicorn like the princess's, but they were so different, he didn't turn his head, but still acknowledged his presence, "yes it is, but it's a shame it won't last" he said looking at the city, off in the distance.
"Such a pity, Skyfall failed in his one simple mission, we received reports, that he was killed by his apprentice, one named Flame" he said looking up at the taller one, "yes well, he will be dealt with, soon enough, but for now, we have one goal, are the troops ready?" he asked finally looking down at the smaller one.
"Yes sir, all ready for the invasion, they won't see us coming" he said with a smile, "excellent work Night Wing, you never fail me, gather them all together, and begin the assault" he said as he turned his attention back to the castle.
"Yes, Master Shadow Blaze" he said as he turned and walked back into the forest, the taller one turned his head back to the town, "the time has come, for my revenge" he said to himself as he turned and walked back to the forest.
A/N: wow, the first chapter and already the intensity increases, more will be on the way soon.
