Twilight had been wakened up by the train whistle blowing. They have finally arrived in their little town of Ponyville. It was usually a very peaceful little town with usual nice ponies. The sun was shining but the glare was hurting Twilight's eyes. Rarity was still sleeping wearing a blindfold and was mumbling something about burned breakfast and Sweetie Bell. Rarity's little sister. Twilight nudge Rarity on the side and she awoke.
"Huh? Oh were here" yawned the white unicorn. Twilight stood up and grabbed her settle bag and started walking out the train. Rarity joined her momentarily taking off the blind folds. She was still worried about twilight and what happened the night before. She had to say something. As twilight was trotting towards the library and Rarity called for her.
"Twilight, I'm really sorry we couldn't find anything on the alicorn. We could always just go and try something else. Maybe we could put up flyers around town-"
"JUST FORGET IT RARITY! I JUST WANT TO GO HOME AND FORGET ALL ABOUT THIS! WE WILL NEVER FIND HIM SO JUST LET IT GO!" Twilight cried out with tears streaming down her face.
"Twilight don't be like that, we could still find him if we look we close enough. Since we got out of the archives you've been acting weird and what would make you think we can't find him?" Rarity asked being worried by what Twilight said. Twilight reached into her settle and pulled out the parchment and threw it at Rarity's face. She was more hurt than she was, but she grabbed the parchment and unrolled it. She saw the drawing and thought he looked cute even if was only a drawing. Rarity was still confused at what Twilight was upset about until she saw it. She gasped as she read the word 'Deceased'
"WE WONT FIND HIM BECAUSE, BECAUSE HE'S DEAD! SO JUST LEAVE ME ALONE AND FORGET ABOUT IT" cried Twilight as she ran towards the Everfree forest instead of the library crying. Rarity tried to catch up to her but twilight kept teleporting further and further. Even with her usage of magic, rarity couldn't match Twilight's powerful strength in magic. So she still couldn't teleport herself towards her.
Rarity's running turned to trotting and then suddenly stopped when she caught out of breath. While catching her breath she examined the parchment Twilight threw at her. Now she knew why Twilight was sad. The love she was looking for turned out to be dead. She felt so sorry for her book worm friend. What would this do to her with future relationships? Twilight probably won't want to fall for another in fear of losing them.
"Rarity your back!" the soft voice startled Rarity's pondering.
"Oh did I scare you? I'm sorry I just wanted to say hi, I'll leave you alone" said a yellow Pegasus with long pink hair. Her name was Fluttershy she was usually the shyest one of her friends.
"Fluttershy! Don't worry about it darling. I'm just worried about Twilight. We just found that… wait I'm sorry I can't tell you, I pinkie promised myself I wouldn't tell anypony. And I can't break a promise or ill loose a good friend-" "foreverrrrrrr" there was a voice from the distance that almost startled the both of them.
"So any ways, anything happened when we were gone? And where is every pony?" she asked looking around the usually busy little town. The streets were almost completely empty and the stores and restaurants were closed.
"Allot. First I'm just so furies at everypony. They all attacked an innocent creature that didn't do anything bad. When I first saw it I was scared and screamed, but I wished I didn't when I saw what everyone did to him. He wasn't trying to hurt me he even said he won't hurt me. But then apple jack came in and hit him. And…" said Fluttershy in an angry tone.
"Um, Fluttershy dear can you please slow a little. I'm not sure what you're telling me. If you would so kindly." Asked Rarity trying to figure out what Fluttershy was talking about.
"Oh, I'm sorry. Well there was a changeling that came into town. I was cleaning my chicken coop when someone rang the ECA 'emergency changeling alarm' and minutes later he came into my chicken coop. but he was trying to hide, I didn't realize till Apple jack bucked him outside. And by then I regret screaming." Fluttershy was getting more and more furious but she was also crying "they were hurting him Rarity and I couldn't stop them. I tried pulling them off but, but…" Rarity noticed bruises around her neck and a bandaged broken wing.
"Fluttershy what happened!? What did they do to you?!" she asked more worried about her friend being hurt.
"'Sniff' don't be mad at him 'sniff' it wasn't his fault 'sniff'"
"Who did this to you? Was it that dreaded changeling, when I get that monster I'm gona…" she stopped when she saw the worry on her best friends face.
"it wasn't his fault 'sniff' you should have seen what they were doing to him 'sniff' he was just trying to protect himself 'sniff' and when I tried to pull them off him he stood up and grabbed me 'sniff' I was thrown and landed on the library 'sniff' the branches and leaves broke my fall but my I won't be able to fly for a while… But I was so mad at all the ponies who took part in hurting him 'sniff' all they were spouse to do is drive him away 'sniff' but they started chasing him 'sniff' and he's not a monster rarity 'sniff' he's just lost and alone and also probably hungry 'sniff'" Rarity admired how Fluttershy would take care of an animal who can't defend for themselves. But this is still too far.
"After I was throne I was told he used magic and escaped to the Everfree forest 'sniff' I wanted to go in and help him but they won't let me go in there… do changeling use magic?"Asked Fluttershy finally calming her tears. Rarity thought for a minute but didn't know. They only had seen the queen use magic and the servants only changed into themselves. How could this changeling use magic when the others don't? Something else crossed her mind from what Fluttershy said. 'Alone and lost'
"I'm not sure, um dearly why you say he's alone and lost?" she asked looking back at the parchment.
"Well I guess it was when we heard that melody an hour after he left into the everfree forest. I've never heard anything like that but I've heard he's voice before. I've tried to go in and try to find him but there guarding the entrance to the forest and they won't let anyone come in or out."
"And may I also ask what did this changeling look like exactly?" asked rarity.
"Well he had a black coat but was wearing old dirty rags, and he had long messy dirty hair and had big grey eyes. He was kind of tall almost the size of Luna. But now that I think about it, aren't the changelings wings usually like an insects? Because I could see inside his rags that he had wings almost the size like a griffon." That's when Fluttershy was starting to think maybe it wasn't a changeling. Its horn didn't look twisted and the holes on its body were only the holes on its rags he was wearing. He probably needs something to eat; he looked like he hasn't eaten in months. The poor dear, he came for food and was given hatred and pain. Rarity showed her the picture of the alicorn
"Did he look like this?" she asked.
"Actually yeah, but his hair was more greasy but he looks exactly the like him. Gasp, you don't think he's an A-"
"An alicorn, yes that's precisely it. We need to get to the girls and explain what happened and so we can go in and find Twilight" explained rarity.
"Oh yes almost forgot, there at the mayor's office arguing if we should call for royal guards to come in. and watch over the town during the nights. Common let's go" said Fluttershy rushing to mayor mare office in towns central.
They burst through the doors of the major only to see everypony arguing.
"I SAY WE SHOULD SEND IN A GROUP TO GO INTO THE EVERFREE FOREST AND MAKE SURE THAT MONSTER IS DONE FOR!" yelled a cyan Pegasus with a rainbow mane and her cutiemark was a cloud and a rainbow shaped as a lightning bolt. Her name is Rainbow dash, captain of Ponyville weather group and claims to be the fastest flyer of Equestrian.
"AND I SAY USE THAT GROUP TO DEFEND THE TOWN AGAINST ANY MORE THAT MAY COME AT NIGHT. DIDN'T YOU SEE HOW APPLE BLOOM AND GRANN SMITH ALMOST GOT HURT-"but sis he wasn't goanna hurt us right before you-""NOT RIGHT NOW APPLE BLOOM LET THE BIG PONYS TALK!" Said an orange earth pony with blond mane and wearing a Stetson her cutie mark were three apples. Her name was applejack, she and her family own and run Sweetapple acres. Right behind her was her little sister Apple Bloom; she had a yellow blond coat and red mane and was wearing a big red bow.
Each of the ponies was surrounded by a group of pony's each along side with what each was talking about. One side wanted to go and finish the job others wanted to stay put and have protection in case of another attack. There was another side to this discussion. Near the door was another pony with a pink coat and messy curly pink mane.
"FORGET ABOUT THE DANG GAURDS WE HAVE TO TALK ABOUT HOW LOCO ALL OF YOU WERE ACTING. I was told to drive the changeling way, NOT KILL HIM!" The pink pony yelled at the crowds. This earth pony was named pinkie pie the fun and hyper party pony of the group. She was in the side with Fluttershy. She thinks everyone was acting too violent with the changeling.
"PINKIE WHAT WE WERE DOING WAS WHAT WE SHOULAVE BEEN DOING ALOONG TIME AGO!" yelled Rainbow dash
"girls" shyly whimpered Fluttershy but no one heard her.
"HOW COULD YOU SAY THAT DASHIE, WHY DO YOU GOTA BE SO CRULE TO THEM?!" cried pinkie pie.
"um girls…"
"THEY ATTACKED CANTERLOT, THEY TRICKED US AND THE PRINCESS, AND THEY KILLED COUNTLESS PONYS! WHY SHOLDNT WE JUST EXTERMINATE ALL OF THEM, WIPE THEM OFF THE FACE OF EQUESTRIA!" yelled rainbow as the crowd around her cheered.
"ITS NOT ABOUT KILLING THEM RAINBOW, ITS ABOUT PROTECTING OUR KIN!"
"GIIIIIIIIRRRRRRRRRLLLLLLLLLLLSSSSSS!" Fluttershy finally yelled out as everypony sat quietly. Fluttershy finally caught her breath from trying to get every ones attention. When she noticed everypony was staring at her she quickly hid behind rarity and nudge her on the side. Giving a sign to Rarity to tell every pony what she wants to say.
"Um, I'll need everypony to go home and stay calm, and tell whoever is guarding the entrance to the Everfree forest they can go home. And ill also need you girls to stay" Rarity said pointing to her friends.
Every pony left except for the five ponies and Apple bloom also mane mayor who was hiding and trembling behind her desk. Rainbow Dash and Apple bloom was still arguing but were hushed by pinkie pie.
"What do you need to tell us Fluttershy?" asked pinkie pie bouncing up and down as she usually is.
"Well its Rarity that wants to tell you gals something" quietly said Fluttershy still hiding behind Rarity.
"Yes, well it has to do with the changeling that came into town" said Rarity
"w'ah ab'out it, and whe're in tha hay is Twi?" asked Applejack looking around the room for Twilight.
"She ran off to the Everfree forest but we have to talk about-" Rarity was cut off by Rainbow
"YOU LET HER RUN INTO THE FOREST WITH THAT MONSTER STILL ON THE LOOSE, COMMAN LETS GO FIND HER" said rainbow dashing out the window. The rest of the group followed. Rarity and Fluttershy tried to stop them but they wouldn't listen so they just gave up and went with them.
Twilight has been running and teleporting past the whole forest crying her eyes out. How could I have just left him their alone in the forest? She knew there was a possible catastrophe coming soon and she had to keep Ponyville safe two months ago. Even though there was no real danger it was only her future self-telling her past self not to worry. Causing many things to accrue.
But that was day she had met the alicorn and she still could not forget him. And she left him their alone to die.
She had made it near the castle ruins where they had fought Nightmare Moon. she remembered it so clear. She and about five other ponies she had just met that day. Have gone inside and defeated Nightmare Moon. But something even better also happened in here. She realized she now has friends.
It was one of the happiest moments of her young life. She had never had friend in her life, except for her older brother and her foul sitter, Cadance. For other ponies her age, not any. Twilight was mostly busy reading her books and studying magic that she didn't have time to talk to other fillies. For her whole life she believed she didn't needed a friend. Until she came to Ponyville.
When she was still living in Canterlot in the university, there have been other students who try to get her to put the books down and hang out. But with all her studies and lessons she was way too busy to hang out, or shell just make excuses to not be around other ponies. The only one she ever talked to outside of the class was spike and even that wasn't much of an actual conversation.
Twilight used her magic and opened the gates to the castle. There was a long hallway that led to another room. She entered it. It was a large room with tinted windows all over. The walls and statues were covered with plants wrapping their stems and leaves around them. In the middle of the room was a statue with five arms stretching out. This was where they held the elements.
Now that she looks at the statue she somehow felt sadness, a sudden memory of a dream she had one night. She remembered it even more clearly than in the morning she woke up with tears in her eyes. She was in this exact room and without notice she was hit by some sort of magic that almost burned her skin. At that moment she knew she was going to be alone for eternity that she will never see he home again, or see the one she loved.
She opened her eyes and realized that she had been day dreaming about events that never happened to her. She merely just sat quietly trying to comprehend on what's happening to her. Strange dreams, strange feelings, and this strange fixation on being with this alicorn.
"Oh LooK, A pretty LittLE POnY. Are You aLONE PonY? HEH HEH HEH." there was a frightening distorted voice laughing right behind her. Its laughter was echoing throughout the tower sending shivers down Twilights spine. Twilight turned around only to see a horrific sight. It looked like a pony but it was far from it.
There were five of them they looked like a pony whose flesh had been torn off. Their eyes were completely blood red and felt as though they were staring right through Twilights soul. One of them had a chewed bloody bunny in his mouth. She could see its knife like teeth grinning at her.
One of them dashed right at Twilight and pinning her to the wall. It stared at Twilight right in her eyes with his grin reached across its head. Laughing a malicious evil laugh that will probably haunt Twilights dreams for the rest of her short existing life.
"Whats wrong LittLe PoNY, whY YoU CryING. Is It because oTheRs ThinK yOuR ugly and No pony WAnts yOU." It said with its demonic distorted voice snickering at Twilight. It stuck out its fork like tongue and licked Twilight's tears. Its breath was horrific like something died and was left out in the sun on a humid day. Twilight wanted to barf but couldn't move from fear, she wanted to run and hide but she just stayed there. She felt so weak and vulnerable. The thing licked Twilights face and she just kept her eyes and mouth shut.
"YoU tAsTE ReaLLy GoOD, PonY. I can just smell the fear in you and it just gets me ON" the demon started touching twilight with its mutilated hooves. As the others started laughing historically. Twilight was getting more and more scared and started tearing up again from fear of what she thought they were going to do.
"YoUr ProbeBLY StiLL a, VirGin arnt you. I ThinK im GonnA have a little Fun with My Food, HEH HEH HEH" as it laugh it forced its long fork tongue through twilights lips entering her mouth. The taste was even worse than its breath, the taste of blood and rotten flesh made twilight vomit a little in her mouth. The monster seemed to like it. It was forcing his tongue down Twilights throat, moving it and swirling it around her mouth.
Twilight wanted to disappear from existence if it would take her away from what's going to happen. She regretted ever even coming to the forest. Why did she come here? Was it because she wanted to be alone and didn't wanted to talk to anypony else, not even her best friends or even spike her number one assistant. Or was it because here was where her heart lies, where one of her happiest moments accrued.
As she was trying to push the demon off of her she felt around the floor with her hooves and grabbed something sharp. She kept her eyes closed still, from not wanting to see the demon or from the horrific smell and taste of it. Here goes nothing she thought to herself.
She bit down on the demons long forked tongue and ripped it off from the monsters mouth. As she did she held the sharp metal object tight and swung at the demon face slashing its neck. As it stood up holding its neck gagging on some black liquid that was pouring out of its mouth and from its neck. Twilight spat out the long forked tong from her mouth. She turns to her side and threw up all the food she had eaten the day before. Twilight slowly opened her eyes feeling very dizzy and hazy. She looked at her hoof to see what it she grabbed was.
It was a shattered piece of sharp blue metal, she recognized it. It was a piece from Nightmare Moon's armor.
She stood up and saw some of the demons were charging at her. Twilight took drastic measures, her horn started glowing and she sent a beam of light at the demons and knocking them down. She teleported herself out of the room and on to the stairs. She ran down the fleet of stairs and down to the left wing hall way.
But the hall was entirely covered in this strange black mist, Twilight could barely see anything. Her horn started glowing to use as a flash light but it was still barely visible.
"WheRe ArE yOU little PonY" she heard the demons say when they were coming down the stairs. Twilight started running at a random direction not knowing where she was going or what was in front of her. The complete darkness seemed almost endless until she hit a wall.
"OUCH!"
She stood up and laid her hoof in front of her to touch the stone wall. She placed her hoof on the stone wall and tried to guide herself along the edge of the hall. If she knew where she was she could probably teleport herself outside. She'll just have to go through the halls and hopefully find a way out.
The voices of them kept getting closer-AAAGH!
Twilight heard them scream and was then silent like they had dropped dead. She looked around to see if theirs anypony else with her. But it was completely pitch black. She kept trotting alongside the wall, her trots echoing across the dark halls. Twilight has a shiver going around her body; she could feel like someone is watching her.
There was a faint giggle right behind her twilight turned but could not see what it was. But she could see two glowing reptile like eyes a couple of feet in front of her. Without looking back she quickly turned and took off towards the opposite direction. But a wall quickly stopped her at her tracks if only she could see in the dark.
She immediately remembered something, she had learned a spell that would make her eyes nocturnal and she would be able to see clearly. It would take a large amount of magic since she was still starting to learn it. Why didn't she remember it before? Her horn glowed and so did her eyes. She could finally see the floor more clearly. She quickly stood up and looked back to see what the eyes were. But nothing was there, it must have left her. She blinked once and right in front of her appeared what looked like the devil himself.
She fell back and leaned against the wall and wouldn't move from fear. It looked like an alicorn but more evil. He had pitch-black coat and black mane almost seemed darker than night. His eyes were glowing red and were shaped like a dragon eyes, also the whites of his eyes were also black but when twilight looked in to them they felt empty. He had long wings with sharp feathers that were cutting through the air. He gave a small malicious grin.
"Oh look a small pony from the town, are you lost? Maybe I can help you find your way out. Heh heh heh" he said in a seductive tone of voice but sounding threatening. Twilight could see his sharp long fangs that were covered in some black fluid.
"Just do something for me and I'll do something for you. Just don't worry your pretty little head. my slutty little mare, heh heh heh" he said taking a couple of steps closer towards Twilight. She was trying to make herself move and run away, she could barely even flinch. She just sat back leaning against the wall with fear in her eyes. 'What is he going to do to me?' Twilight thought. 'He's not goanna… oh please don't do what I think he's goanna do'
His horn started glowing red and a red glow was covering Twilights bottom legs. Some of Twilights worst fears were about to come true. Her legs were spread and the alicorn was only a few inches away from her. Twilight eyes started tearing. She wanted to go home to her friends. Where she felt safe and secure, where she was happy and loved.
The alicorn has been killing these demons in the dark nonstop for hours now. And it felt so good. Nothing could stop him even if they tried, it would still be nothing. Just how they scurried away when they think they hear him made it feel much better. The chase was magnificent, it was just more rewarding chasing them and catching and killing. Like a predator catching its prey. Only that, these demons was once the predators to the alicorn. So the tides have turned and now their running from him.
Only wished he could get something more. Killing these monsters is to him, fun. But it wasn't as satisfying as it once was. He needed something else as any other normal stallion would want.
Lust
And where was he going to find some. There was no way in Tartarus he was goanna use any of these thing for his needs. It would be easier finding a mare in the town. He thought.
Nothing in what the alicorns thought were any of his anymore. All he wants is to kill and make others suffer. That's what happens when you must bear years in Tartarus and feed on the flesh and blood of the ponies damned Tartarus. When he does have a taste he changes completely. Like a pony when he's under the influence of a drug of when they drink. They just want to get more of that satisfaction.
"WheRe ArE yOU little PonY" he heard one of the demons say. He saw five of them trying to find something in the dark. He spread his wings open and so ready to slice them. With less than a second he ran towards them and sliced each of them open. They gave out a scream and fell dead. It felt amazing, but no satisfying.
He heard the echoes of hoof steps so he quickly sneaks towards them. He found what was making the hooves steps it was a pony. More importantly it was a mare. He dint know who it was and didn't care all that mattered was that she wasn't one of those things
He giggled at the thoughts of what he is going to do to this unsuspecting pony. The pony turned but saw nothing. He decided to show his eyes and so his bright red eye started glowing. The pony looked at them in fear and so she turned and ran the opposite direction. How much more exiting could this get for the alicorn, he has to work for his pleasure that will be all the more rewarding. He spread his and glided towards the pony not even trying to be quick. He stopped when the mare bumped into a wall head on. He smirks at the little pony, she does not have any idea where she's going, how adorable. The alicorn was watching the young pony with much want and desire. He stared at the mare's small body and he loved what he sees. She was small but has a fine well curved feminine body, and a nice fresh fine flank. Aside from the smell of rotten body's that is covered around the room. The alicorn can still smell the sweet aroma scent coming off the mare's body. And it aroused his senses.
As he got closer he can see her more closely, she had a purple coat and mane?Could it be-NO. the alicorn thought to himself trying to take away the thoughts of the mare he's been trying to find. He was just imagining things, things that he truly desires the most but completely out of reach. The thoughts of mercy and what's right bleed out from him along time. But there is still a little spark in him that was still who he really was. The musical notes still ranged as they had always ranged through his veins as they once did. Through the night his hooves upon the keys of the organ as he played night away.
But at the moment it isn't him. He only seeks what he wants and what he wants now is a nice mare. And right now his prayers have been answered. Some little mare comes stumbling in here at the perfect moment.
The mare's horn started glowing so the alicorn just decided to rise up so she wouldn't see him. She opened her eyes and they were glowing making her violet eyes sparkle. Oh look the little mare knows a night vision spell how adorable, thought the alicorn. She started looking around and saw nothing. She blinked and the alicorn took that chance and flew down to the grown right in front of the mare. In less than a second. When the mare opened her eyes she fell back out of shock and fear. He simply loved how his victims feared him even at just the sight of him. The mare stared at him without making a sound or even a single move. She was simply traumatized by the alicorns sight.
He decided to toy a little with the mare, so it would be more fun for him.
"OH look a small pony from the town, are you lost? Maybe I can help you find your way out, heh heh heh" he said trying to have a seductive tone to his sinister voice but still having it sound threatening. He slowly walked towards the mare taking normal steps that echo the dark corridor.
"Just do something for me and I'll do something for you. Just don't worry your pretty little head. My slutty little mare, heh heh heh" he said walking closer and closer to the purple mare.
'what are we doing, I've never ever done this to anypony, how could I let myself do this to some innocent mare' the alicorn thought but his body still felt like it was being manipulated. He tried to shake those ideas out of his head and went on to the mare.
His horn started to glow red, and the mare's legs were covered with the alicorns magic and were spread apart from each other. He can easily take anything he wants from this mare. And he intends on taking her innocents.
He walked closer and closer until he was only inches away from her and standing right on top of her. He lowered his head closer towards her face. The alicorn can just feel and smell her breath, it was sweet. He stared at her face but not really noticing it, he was only thinking about the things he will do as he smirked.
He then stared upon her eyes as they were watering as she now knows what he will do to her. He saw the tears run down her from her violet eyes and felt only pain, sharper than any blade that has ever penetrated his body. It was slicing through his heart. He recognizes those beautiful violet eyes but they were covered by her tears of fear and sorrow. He was causing the pain, something he never wanted to do.
He just stared into her eyes not moving at all. 'Where have I seen those beautiful eyes?'. He asked himself. 'Why do I feel pain for causing this pain to this pony, and how can I help her feel better?!'. The mare just stayed their looking back at the alicorn still traumatized by him. The alicorns feathers were beginning to fall off, and his mane and coat were beginning to go back to their dark night color. A tear ran down his face as he took a step back. He took a better look at the mare; she had a purple coat and a dark purple mane with a pink streak. He let go of the mare's legs. She was beautiful, no she wasn't just that she was gorgeous, marvelous, and beautiful, she was…lovely. The loveliest pony in this existence.
And it hit the alicorn harder than anything and it hurt so badly. His fangs grew back in and his eyes slowly changed back to their bright grey color but were left in shock. This was the only face he wanted to see but not like this. This is the one he has been searching for weeks. The lovely mare.
"Twilight Sparkle" he said as his voice was back to his calming sweet melody voice. Twilight looked up as she heard her named being called. She blinked once and wiped her tears from her eyes. She finally realized who this was; it wasn't the demon that just tried to take advantage of her. It was the alicorn she had meet in the cave where the gates of Tartarus were located.
The alicorn launched himself towards Twilight wrapping his arms around the little unicorn's waist.
"I'm sorry I'm so sorry" he kept crying as tears ran down his face. He laid his head on twilight's stomach. Twilight just wrapped her arms around his head while brushing his hair with her hooves.
"Please forgive me, I couldn't control myself" he kept saying feeling guilty that he tried to take advantage of the mare he fell in love with.
"It's ok, nothing happened." she said trying to comfort him glad that she finally found him but was still confused on what just happened. Twilight seemed like a mother comforting her foul trying to get him to stop crying.
The alicorn was glad that he was finally found the mare that he had been searching for two and a half months. But was ashamed of himself that she had to see him this way. Guess it's true what they say about him. He's nothing but a monster.
The smoke started too disappeared from the corridor clearing the way. The light from the windows seeped in making it easy to see. Twilights eyes came back to normal when the light was hurting her eyes. She didn't move from where she was, she just stayed their alongside the wall. Comforting the alicorn and hoping this wasn't a dream and that she wasn't still in the train sleeping.
The alicorn just lay on the floor with his face crying on twilight's stomach. Either tears of regret or tears of joy either ways he's happy he finally found the mare.
"Oh, LooK at ThAt, The liTtLe aliCorn iS CryINg like a FilLY" there was a voice right in front of them. They both looked up only to see about a thousand of these demons right in front of them. With hunger and anger on their deformed faces and all showing their sharp teeth.
The alicorn quickly stood up but felt a sharp pain on his leg and fell again on the marble floor. Twilight quickly dashed for him and trying to lift him up. She just dragged him back wall holding him as she did before. She looked down on his leg and saw that it was injured.
She looked back at the demons surrounding them; she knew she couldn't teleport herself out of this mess. The alicorn also looked around and he also believed their doomed. He can't fight all of them at once. He knew they would just kill Twilight and drag him back to the deepest bowls of hell. He just looked back at Twilight and she looked at him.
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry… I couldn't protect you either-"he was cut off by twilight laying a hoof on his lips.
"What's your name?" that was the only question she wanted to know at that moment.
"It's Sha…I mean Silent, Silent Melody" Silent said. They gassed deeply into each other's eyes. Almost feels like a life time since they've seen each other. With each passing second and each heartbeat, time seemed to slow down for them. Silent got closer to Twilight and closer just wanting to feel her soft lips one more and possibly, last time. He lifted his hoof and touched her soft cheek.
"I just wanted to say, I have fallen in love with you miss Twilight Sparkle" said Silent. With those words it made Twilights heart lift higher than anything.
"I can't explain why but I feel like I have known you for a loo-" Silent was cut off by lips that were pressing against his lips. Twilight was kissing Silent and it was just as sweet as he had remembered. He lifted his wings and wrapped them around Twilight body holding her closer towards him. He closed his eyes, his pain and guilt from everything he had done and everything that has happen to him. Just disappear from him and for the longest time in a thousand years, he found the face of peace. And she's a lovely unicorn with violet eyes.
Every demon around them came charging towards them with anger and hate for them. But the two lovers just stayed as they were, each one embracing their love one in a pationit kiss. Holding each other not caring if it is their vital end of existence. As the demons were merely a few steps from the two ponies, there was a spark from within Twilight's heart. She opened her eyes as they were glowing bright blue. She was being lifted off the ground separating her from their kiss. Silent looked up holding Twilights hoof not willing to let go. But as she rose higher he let go.
Twilight's horn started glowing bright purple getting brighter. It almost burned but Silent didn't want to turn away from her. As he gazed upon the lovely mare that he loved, the way she was levitating and her eyes glowing reminded him someone else. One of the wielders of the elements.
'Was she one of the new elements?' thought Silent.
The light became brighter and brighter blinding Silent's view. There was a flash and with it the screams of pain of the demons that surrounded them.
The light faded and twilight lightly flouted down to the ground like a feather. Silent went up and cached her before her bottom hooves even touched the ground. He sat on the ground holding twilight gently. Her eyes went back to normal letting the light from them fade. She blinked a couple of times then lifted her and looked around. All the demons have been turned to a frozen statue state. The windows seemed as though they were blasted through and a couple of frozen demons were trying to get out right before the flash.
Silent tried to get up carrying twilight, but almost fell again. His leg was still broken even after he was in his more evil demon state, it still didn't completely heal. Twilight stood up by herself and helped Silent stand up.
"We must get out of here, Twilight Sparkle" he calmly said. Twilight nodded, so she grabbed Silent's front right hoof and lifted it around her back to help support him. It made it much easier for silent to trot out. So they trotted their way from the corridor away from the statues. With Silent leading the way and Twilight just following.
"Are…are you well, are you hurt?" he asked worried about her tremendously.
"Ye..Yeah… I'm alright, just a little startled, that's all. W…what about you are you ok" asked twilight.
"Um... are we 'O.K'?" asked silent not sure what Twilight meant.
"Oh well, it a sort of expression like saying are you alright" explained twilight confused on how he doesn't know what ok means.
"Ok" said Silent "and you don't have to worry about me, we'll be ok" he added.
"What about your leg? And your wings, they look badly damaged? And what were those things?" twilight kept asking "and one more thing…who are you?" they stopped and looked at each other. Silent took a moment to think of what to tell her. What he should tell her and what he doesn't want her to know.
"My real name is Silent Melody, we, I mean; I was once a guardian to the royal family. But that was a long time ago. Those things we saw are called, Watchers. They were once angles from beyond but now they are a race of demons that now live beyond the gates of Tartarus" explained Silent. Twilight was confused. She has never heard of Watchers, if they're here that means the gates have opened. She must tell the princess soon and warn her of another possible upcoming attack. They started trotting again.
"Tell us about ye'self, Twilight Sparkle?" said silent.
"Oh…well, you can call me just Twilight if you like, or you can call ma anything. Well I'm…uh" Twilight couldn't figure out the words on what to say to him. She didn't know how to describe herself, "well um I like…to uh" she tried to think of the things she likes to do but felt like she doesn't know what she likes "…I'm a…" she tried to think of what kind of person she is. Is she kind is she fun or generous, is she smart. She wanted to say something to not make her look too much of a doffis.
"Or those your face resemble how you are on the inside" said Silent. Twilight was thinking that he was calling her ugly, sure she may not be all the pretty as some of the other mare or as feminine as the pony's in Canterlot.
"Does your beauty reflect what's actually on the inside" twilight just blushed like mad.
They were silent for a few moments so Silent decided to break it.
"Miss Twilight may we-I ask you something?" Twilight nodded "do you have a special somepony in your life?" twilight was getting more and more nervous.
"Um... no not really" she said nervously.
"oh, we would have thought a beautiful unicorn such as your self would already have a special pony who's body is always stunned by your beauty, even when their thoughts are only of you" Twilight just wanted to kiss him again. She never thought anyone would ever call her beautiful or pretty or anything like that. When she was still in magic kindergarten she was always made fun of by other fillies in Canterlot. They would call her ugly, or a freak, and sometimes lonely.
But now she didn't feel ugly or a freak and she definitely wasn't alone. When she was young she was always afraid to go outside. Afraid the other bullies would teas her and sometimes would hurt her. But now, she felt safer than she ever was.
Silent felt far too happy that he was finally able to be with the mare he had been searching for weeks, the mare that has been in his dreams all these sleepless nights. There's only one thing on his mind, to be with her and protect her. Those were the only rules he ever had when he was a guard and to the one he loved. He did everything for her, even played her the organ with was enjoyment for the both of them.
"So have you been here all this time?" she asked.
"Well...we-I have been searching all around equestrian…looking for you" he said turning to twilight and looking deep into her eyes. Not wanting to be anywhere else but with her. Staring into her eyes like sparkling jewels that glisten as the light touches them.
"We were not exactly sure where this 'Ponyville' was. And it has been too long since we-I mean I have been in Equestria. So we have come here in this once outstanding castle, for shelter" said silent.
"Well it's actually quite near just follow the trail outside and it will take you to the town" said twilight. She wanted to know why he always said 'we' when he would say 'I'. It reminded her of Princess Luna, even his accent, it does sound like a modern Ponyville accent. But it also sounded a little like Luna's accent but more comforting and less fretful.
"Um, Silent can I ask, why you keep saying 'we' and keep switching to 'I'?" she asked but thinking that's still a stupid question.
"Oh, well..." he put his head down "when 'I' was a guardian, the one I was protecting would always say 'we' when she spoke. She would always try to put me and her together so we-I wouldn't be just a guard standing around and following her. It's been far too long since we-I have seen her but I can still feel her young face upon my hooves" he finished looking up and staring back at twilight "so you could say I got used to hearing we that I decided to use it myself, I am trying to speak in an abridge modern speech but it's a bit difficult"
"Who was this pony you protect-" Twilight was cut off short by voices calling her name.
"TWILIGHT ARE YOU IN THEIR!" called the voice of a pony with a high pitch voice. The calling was coming from outside the castle, near the entrance. So twilight decided to ask later and finally get out of here. So they trotted towards the exit leaving the long wide corridors into the outside of the Everfree forest. She still wonders who the pony Silent once protected was, and did he have feeling for her.
So they walk, walking towards the entrance to a new life. As he looks at her again a song emerges once more. That very song that has condemned him into the fate of sorrow now fills his heart with reassurance and hope. The song begins once more as it had more than one thousand years ago. Only now plays its lovely melody for a new pony.

Hope you readers like the name 'Silent Melody' for the next chapter it will explain more of why name is this" ~your fellow writer and brony LunarWriter74, it has been said that a melody of a song can represent the feeling of another.
