The Shade
Yay it's my birthday!...Oh you don't care well that is quite mean. Seriously you had to be a...
"SHUT THE FUCK UP"
Sorry didn't see you there mystery villain. On with the story.
Celestia, Castle dining room
"Well he's dead" Celestia said when she saw the blood gushing out of Vod's body. But the body faded into ethereal mist that unless you knew he was there you wouldn't be able to see him and even then it took concentration. She started to use her magic to levitate the misty shape over to a corner so it would be out of the way.
Shining was lying drooling on the floor he had no soul. Vod had taken it from him now he was just a body was perfectly healed with no evidence of the earlier battle.
Now Celestia could get back to planning Equestria's defense. They had been at war for 2 years with an army of unicorns from a country over the sea. They had been evenly matched at the beginning 6 months of the war but they had losing ever since. They had lost Manehatten and several cities in south Equestria. Ponyville had been almost leveled by a horde of murderous werewolves summoned by the evil leader of the enemy armies.
Canterlot had been under siege for a month but the enemy armies were almost entirely demoralized and would soon surrender.
"Princess they are here you need to...ugh." A guard started to say but a arrow went straight through his neck and hit Celestia in the left hind leg severing tendon leaving it immobile.
"Why hello Celestia..ouch I really hope you didn't break my arrow I don't have very many left" a regal looking pony stepped forward with a black hood covering his head.
"Centurion Shade." Celestia said eyes filled with rage. She tried to move but her leg was paralysed.
"Now that I've taken over your kingdom I will be king. And you will be my queen." Shade said. He looked smug and celestia wished she could run over and stab him.
Vod Gaaf, same room in corner.
Vod had just woke and his body was coming back into existence. He walked over to Celestia and examined what was happening. The ethereal form couldn't hear very well so he only heard snippets but obvious that 1) Princess is in trouble and 2) Guy in cloak looks full of himself.
"So you will rule this kingdom as a lowly servant to a great...WHAT THE HELL IS THAT."He yelled as he saw Vod start to come back into a form.
"I am King Forgotten Ghost now get out of my kingdom evil doer." Vod said. He had fully formed and was healed. He pulled out his sword and brought it to a defensive position. "Sil Daal." Soul release. Shining's soul went out of the sword and back into his body. He looked confused but seeing hos enemies he went on the defensive like Vod.
"Equestria doesn't have a king. You idiot the last king if this land lived 3 billion years ago and his name was Vod Gaaf. Now you will die." Shade said.
"I am Faas Sah Jun Vod Gaaf now feel my wrath." Vod jumped across the room and slashed his sword through the soldiers around Shade. Slashing, hacking, and melting his way through he finally got to Shade.
Shade stood there mouth agape. He had brought only his best soldiers In here and all were dead.
"You will fall it doesn't matter if you kill me there are more reinforcements coming from my country and we already have three of your princesses we will prevail." He said he knew he was overmatched but he wanted to go down defiantly.
"Good I guess it doesn't matter if I torture you then. Sil Yol." A purple fire gathered around his body but did no visible damage.
"What is this?" He tried to move but his legs were paralyzed.
"That is a soul fire it burns your soul up till there is only a sliver left and then it burns your body. Really painful way to die. Now where are the princesses if you tell I will let you live."
"They are spread through the cities we have taken over and the dark purple one is being shipped I've to my country to be the bride of our king. Now let me go."
"Okay I'll let you go." He stabbed his sword up through Shade's skull melting his brains to a watery substance.
"One problem dealt with now to get those princesses."
