It started as a regular spec-ops mission; I was sitting in the carriage next to Cadence and shining my sword.
"What's our primary objective?" Pinkie Pie asked while looking at her team
"To hunt and to kill " Twilight said with a stern tone
"Oh" Pinkie said while turning her head away
"Why I thought we were helping him?" Cadence said looking at Twilight
"No, he went dark on us and started creating something in his lab, our job is to go in there and stop whatever he's making in there….at any costs" I said while lifting up my sword which gleamed in the moonlight.
"What is it exactly he's making in there?" Twilight asked looking at me
"I don't know, but when I find out I'm ripping off its head and slicing Blackmagic in half" I said staring at my sword
I saw Cadence pull out her specialized pistol she made called Heartless. It looked like a regular pistol except it had a bayonet at the tip. Twilight had her 2 bladed gauntlets attached on both of her front hooves, one was poisoned and the other electrified. Pinkie having her throwing knives which were the same colors as her cutie mark. I felt the carriage come to a complete stop and I stepped out to see what had happened when I saw the carriage driver's body on the floor with his throat slit and his blood oozing out.
"What the hell….." I looked closer at the neck of carriage driver and examined his slit throat
"What's wrong?" Pinkie said
"The driver's dead" I said while getting up
"WHAT!" Cadence yelled back at me
"Yup" I replied sadly to her
"Does this mean we have to walk?" Pinkie said
"Yup" Twilight said getting off the carriage
We could see 's lab in the distance we grabbed all the gear we could carry and started walking toward the lab. About half way Pinkie started complaining that it was too far away. I decided that we would take a 5min break, Pinkie collapsed on the floor and the rest of us sat down I kept an eye out for pinkie as she lay on the floor. I heard Twilight escape into the woods for a restroom break.
"Don't go straying off on us" I called out to her
"I won't" she replied
I stared at Cadence as she pulled out a purple comb and began to stroke her hair
"I can feel your eyes boring on my back" she said
"Oh sorry didn't mean to do that" I said while turning my blushing face away
"It's ok come sit next to me" she said patting the empty spot next to me
I hesitated, but walked over to her and sat down. A smile couldn't help to cross my face she returned the smile back and put her hoof on top of mine. She smiled and leaned forward as the space between us became smaller with her rapidly approaching lips, but before she could kiss me we heard Pinkie scream. We both jumped and dashed toward Pinkie I saw a blue unicorn with black and red hair on top of Pinkie with his tail on her neck.
"HELP!" Pinkie yelled out while trying to reach for one of her knives
"SHUT UP!" The unicorn yelled in her face
"I think you better get off her" I told him while drawing my sword
He turned around not taking his tail off Pinkies neck. He stared at me with his gray serpent eyes.
"Well aren't you going to do something?" Cadence asked pulling out her pistol
"I am" He said squinting
"You or me?" She said looking at with smile
"Ladies first" I said pointing my sword forward
"Fine" She said jumping forward
The blue unicorn thrusted his fist and connected with Cadences eye she flew back into the tree, I jumped forward and tried to slash him downward, but he caught it in between his hooves and broke the sword into two pieces and grabbed me by the neck he tossed me into the nearest tree.
"What the hell are you?" I said while looking in his gray eyes
"Your worst nightmare" he said walking toward me with one of Pinkies Knives
"So can I know your name before you kill me?" I asked
"The names Slit" He said holding the knife over me
The knife came down and hit the tree trunk, I heard his body hit the ground I looked at him and saw Twilight on him she pulled up her poisoned gauntlet and came down on his head, but Slit teleported out the way.
"Missed m…" he stopped and looked down
I looked down and saw blood on the floor I saw Pinkies knife in Slits leg I kept staring at him as the blood ran down onto the ground. I looked at Twilight
"GET HIM!" I yelled at her
She instantly reacted jumping at him with her electrified gauntlet when she hit him there was a bright white flash.
"Twilight, Pinkie, Cadence?" I said as the flash wore off
I saw Pinkie and Twilight unconscious on the floor and I saw Slit holding Cadence pinned on a tree
"LET HER GO!" I yelled while galloping at him
"Hmm?" he said while turning his head to me but it was too late
I jabbed my horn in his chest area but his skin was as rough as rock, I kept galloping until I smashed him into a rock which was enough force to make my horn jab in and come out the other side of his chest
Slit coughed up blood and looked at me with his serpentine eyes and smiled a crooked smile
"Prof. Blackmagic will kill all" he said while laughing manically
"Over my dead body" I hissed while dropping his body on the floor
"With… pleasure" he said while suddenly grabbing the knife Pinkie stabbed in his leg and threw it at my right hoof
"Argh!" I said while pulling out the knife and watching some blood dribble down my leg
"Why you little Bit-" I said but noticed that he had disappeared back to Prof. Blackmagic's lab
I turned around and walked back to my team while trying to ignore my leg that was bleeding.
"Cadence?" I said
"Look at this" Cadence said
I looked at where she was pointing and saw 's castle
"Where finally here" I said staring at the castle
"Now it's time to end this" Cadence said
Just then I was snapped back into reality by raindrops splashing on my face.
