Co-Authors POVSilver tilted her head slightly when she saw LionStar and Chef jump into a small speedboat and leave. Rainbow Dash growled and stomped her hoof to the ground. Everypony faced her, and she looked confused.
"What?" she asked, completley oblivious to her out burst. Silver sighed and walked up to the papers, they were scattered around where LionStar used to be. She picked them up and held them infront of her with her wings and began to read.
"It says that there are 4 stallions we have not properly introduced to the rest of us. Lets see... First one is an Earth pony and his name is... Storm Surge. Storm Surge you here?" A white stallion with a shaggy dark blue mane walked up infront of her. "Hello Storm, welcome to the competetion. I am Silver Star and I will choose your team okay?" she smiled brightly, trying to make him feel welcome. He nodded and smiled a little. "Okay, so you'll be on the Horrible Horses with Midnight and Caroline."
"Yes ma'am." was all Storm said, and walked over to Midnight and Caroline. They both gave him a smile, and Caroline gave him a hug around his neck. He hugged her back and gently set her down.
"Okay, so next is a
cyan blue unicorn with a wild purple mane with pink highlights and goes by the name of... Scurry Beats. Scurry you here?" Scurry walked out of the crowd as some of the other guys snickered that he had highlights and that they were pink. Soske shot a piercing glare at them and they stopped immediatly and he smiled. Scurry stood infront of Silver, and shook her hoof. She smiled. "Hello Beats I am Silver and welcome to camp WAPPA and as you may have saw, our host left with the chef so technically a day off to us." He nodded and smiled. "Okay Beats, you will be on the Petrified Ponies. With me, Soske and Dark Knight."
"Alright." he walked up to Dark and Soske and hoof-bumped them both.
"So a
white unicorn with a red to black mane and tail and is named...
Broken Steel. And it says he used to be a royal Canterlot guard, and was brutally ambushed by changelings. All but one of his comrades were murdered in the attack.. Broken Steel, you may come up now.." she said finishing quietly.
Broken Steel walked up, chest puffed out and standing tall. He wore a bandage over his eye, and Silver - in respect for this former soldier- moved her mane to her left eye aswell. Reavealing her right witch was completely black, and the pupil was white. He bowed his head before Silver and she put a hoof on his shoulder. "I'm Silver Star. You will be on the Horrible Horses team. I wish I could place you on ours, but the other team needs the players." she gave him a gentle smile and he looked up at her, his saddened expression cutting up Silver's heart. As he was about to leave, she stopped the white unicorn and whispered in his ear as she hugged him tightly, "You're not alone. You are in a crowd, of broken and deprived ponies with their own pain and misery. I will be with you every step of the way." She let him go and he nodded his head and went to Midnight, Caroline and Storm.
"Al-Alright, last but most certantly not least, he is a
zebra from Manehatten and has silver and grey hair, everypony this is
MonoChrome. And, he is special friends with two famous mares from Ponyville, Zecora the alchamist, and PinkiePie the party pony! We actually have them on Line two, put them on!" MonoChorme walked up to Silver, rather cautiously and nervous. Suddenly the speakers around the came came on with a familiar high voice that Chrome blushed at.
"HEY MONO! IT'S PINKIE AND ZECORA! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU MADE IT THERE! ME AND ZECORA ARE AT HER PLACE AND WE'RE WATCHING YOU ON T.V! HEY WHY IS YOUR FACE ALL RED? IS IT REALLY HOT THERE? WOW THAT PLACE IS ALL GLUM AND BOR-ING! I MISS YOU AND SO DOES ZECORA! IT'S NOT FUN HERE UNLESS YOU GET YOUR FLANK BACK HERE WITH 'DEM BITS! OR IN ANY WAY! JUST COME HOME! ZECORA TALK TO MONO HIS FACE HIS A BRIGHT RED! HE LOOKS LIKE A STRIPPED TOMATO! -SQUEE- Hello my cousin Chrome, Please explain your red dome." Mono's ears went flat against his head, and he stuttered a little. "Ca-Cause... I-I'm si-sick...?"
"Ah, only if I was here with you, I could whip up your favorite stew. But alas, you are there in a test, so do not fret, me and Pinkie will do our best. Even if thy Chrome, fails to win the bits, that does not mean, you have any less of wits. We will support you sir Chrome, we will try to be patient, for you to come home." with that ryme said, the line went off and Chrome sighed.
"Well then, hello MonoChrome, I'm Silver Star and you will be on the Horrible Horses team." he nodded and timidly walked over to Midnight and said hi to the team.
"So I guess that's for today, everypony, just go explore or hang out, tonights the Blood moon and Midnight Moon will be our special guest!" Silver flung the papers beind her and ran up to Soske and pecked him on the cheek. He wrapped a wing around her as she went over plans for the big night.
Midnight's pov
Midnight shook her head and walked away in to the forest and was thinking 'why don't they understand bad things happen on my birthday' I walked throught the forest feeling worried as I have ever been in a long time and i thought 'wow today I turn 3014' I looked at my reflection in the pond. I have changed over my lifetime I remember when I used to play in the underworld with the three headed dog that I called Cercer. I heard rustling behind me and a flash of silver I rolled my eyes and said "I know your there Nightbeam" I said to my little brother that was just an inch shorter than me. The silver alicorn stepped he had silver hair silver fur but pure black eyes and his mark was a silver bow and a silver arrow and he replied to me "why can't I sneak up on you any more" he said pretending to whine. I laughed and said "I'm not 174 anymore little bro and your not 77 anymore" we laughted and he said "no now your 3014". I said to Him "and it will be chaos"
Co-authers POV:
Silver was quickly zipping around, trying to set up everything for the celebration ready. She moved the stage from the crane to a larger clearing by the cabins. She decided horror time will be in the lovely clearing where she had met the timberwolf. Silver decided that on the stage there would be kereoke and the music for the whole night. There would be a small bar, and booths at the ground infront of the stage. Sure they were only teenagers and a filly, maybe non-alcoholic apple juice? And any alcohol that they had lying around plus, nopony will think of giving Caroline beer right? And they had a special order of Sweet Apple Acre's famous Sweet Apple cider. So the kereoke is set up, drinks, refreshments, games, and quality bathrooms. She smiled as she saw Caroline riding Soske around as he made plane noises. He spread his wings and winked at Silver who was watching, tears almost in her eyes.
She started thinking on how well Soske was with foals and colts. She wondered on how far their relationship will go, and if they would ever have a foal of their own. She shook her head chuckling as she pushed a large dj stereo and turn table in the right corner of the stage. If Scurry wanted to, he could use it and pump up the crowd.
She finally finished and gathered everypony around. Soske (and a sleeping Caroline) stood next to her. The young pink filly stirred as Silver gently nuzzled her neck.
"Hey.. Little one.. Time to get up for the celebration." Silver said sweetly to Caroline. The pink filly slowly opened, and a small gasp was heard. Sunset shone over the area, casting a perfect structure and texture to over come it. Most of the ponies went to the stage, and Silver, Soske and Caroline made their way to the same place. Soske went to go get them some drinks, and Silver could talk to Caroline.
"So Carol.. Who's in your family?" Silver asked.
"Oh.. Well I used to have a mom and a dad but they're on Earth or should I say, not around anymore. I also got a cousin, but I don't see her too often anymore." the filly looked down at the table frowning.
"Well, maybe after this compition is over me and Soske were wanting to have a filly, and were thinking of adopting, since we ARE teenagers." Silver winked at the now gaping filly.
"Ar-are you serious?!"
"Cross my hearth hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye, serious." she smiled as Soske trotted up with drinks balanced on his wings.
"So apple cider for me and the lovely Silver, and fizzy apple juice for little Caroline." he gave her a kind warm smile. She tilted her head, her golden locks bounced to the side.
"What's the difference between apple cider... And fizzy apple juice?" her small voice made Silver smile wide.
"Apple cider is for older ponies. Mares and stallions only." she said kindly, messing up her mane. Caroline still eyed the cider un-trustingly. When Soske winked at Silver she blushed and whispered to Caroline.
"Don't go anywhere, me and Soske will be back in a little bit. Just watch the stage okay?" she kissed the top of Carol's blonde mane. Silver and Soske got up and left and from what Caroline could see, they trotted into the bathroom. She immediatly hopped on her hind legs and put her front hooves on the table. She sniffed Soske's apple cider. It smelled funky, but when she took a sip, it tasted even worse. Her head started spinning and she fell into the soft cusion seating. She headed slowly for the bathrooms when she was met by a drunken Rainbow Dash, coming out herself. She looked kinda funny to Caroline and she asked, "You know, Sos-hic-ke was in there buck-hic-bucking Sil-hic-Silver..."
Caroline tilted her head. "B-buck...? You mean what the Apple family do to tree to get the apples down? Why would Soske be kicking Silver..? Aren't they in love with each other?" Rainbow chuckled and wrapped a wing around the filly and pushed her next to the wooden wall. She heard moaning and a mare screaming.. It sounded like Silver and she was yelling out Soske's name and for him to go... Harder? And she heard Soske grunting and telling her how...sexy she is? What does sexy mean? Thought Caroline, Rainbow pulled her away from the wall and patted her head.
"Y'know kid, I can give you all the answers you-hiccup-need."
MIDNIGHT'S pov
throught the forest with my little brother when I felt a a great pain in my head I hoof to my head and winced in pain and said "SEMOTLATA" (some times Midnight And Nightbeam talk in this ancient langueg and what Midnight said was 'my head' and Midnight and Nightbeam can not Drink or eat because they are half dead they are the children of hades the lord of the underworld and Luna and that is why Nightbeam keeps his left eye coverd and midnight keeps her right eye coverd they have no eye there just a enmty black soket) nightbeam ran to his older sister and said "it's just the curse ok this is the only pain we have on our birth days and it's only once"
The pain stopped and I stood up and shook my head and smiled to my little bro and said yeah I know come on let's get going"

Silver and Soske walked out of the bathroom, a little red in the face. They trotted over happily back to Caroline, all of her apple juice was gone and she had some fizz in the corner of her mouth. Silver wrapped a wing around the pink filly and pulled her close, kissing the top of her head. Soske took a large swig from his cider and sighed.
"Ahhh... Nothing like some warm hard cider for those cold bones." he leaned back in the booth, wearing a relaxed expression. Silver did the same only she drank all of her cider. Silver looked at the stage to see no ponies on there. She galloped to the bathroom real quick, and came out obscuring herself with her large wings. She headed toward the stage when she saw Midnight running into the woods with a small flash of silver following right behind. She folded in here wings and looked at the sky. The moon, a lovely crimson red was starting to rise, but as if hesitantly, Luna did not want this night to be around. She darted after Midnight, her silk silver dress catching on brambles and rose bushes. When she reached the clearing, now instead of silver light, but blood red light was illuminating Midnight, a slightly smaller silver alicorn, and the patched ground. The silver alicorn ran off into the dense forest. Midnight started to flap her large dark blue wings toward the moon, on wich looked as if the moon was lowering itself towards the dark blue alicorn. The red moon brightened the red streaks in her mane.
Silver stared in horror as lightning flashed red and Midnight dropped to the ground, her eyes completley white, like princess Twilight useing the elements of harmony against evil. Silver walked into the red of the moon, stareing at Midnight.
"Moon...? Are you alright?" she asked timidly.
Midnight stared white eyed at the young silver pegasus. A large crimsion lightning bolt almost struck Silver. She yelped and jumped back. Midnight struck Silver, leaving her left fore leg broken. Silver held back a cry of pain, as fractures of her shattered bone pierced through her hide. Midnight smiled, small fangs pointing from her mouth. She jabbed at Silver with her horn, piercing through her heart. Blood spurted from her chest and she gasped but all she inhaled was her own black blood. Midnight held her implace, hanging limply from her enlongated horn. Midnight flung Silver off, causing black blood to profusely pour from her chest as she lay face down in the dirt. Midnight froze, she reaalized through her murderous state, she had killed a pony who had understood her. Her mother came flying down in a flash of light, ending the blood moon celebration.
Midnights pov
I shook my head out of anger to myself I thought why can't I stop I then screamed and trying to calm myself down but I i wasn't able. I was monster was I yes everyone was right I was a monster a killer a demon the horrible daughter of the lord of the underworld hades. I sung trying to calm myself down:
"
i hate it all broken life
some days i feel like dying
i just wanta be alone
on the outside
i look good
but on the inside i
wanna break down
and cry and scream and die...
I dont like this world

I get in fights then
I have a stabinng pain
In my heart
And all that i am
thinking of is
how i ended up
with a broken life

in the morings
just to know that
I'm still alive
I wish that i could die
and get it all over with
i just wanna break down
and cry and scream and die...
why cant it all be over
arguing screaming yelling
crying none of the above
why cant i just die..."
