I slid back panting heavily, I looked to see so of my armor was missing

"Dang it" I said while looking at Applebumpkin without a scratch on her

She just smiled and started to walk towards me slowly

"What do I do?" I said while holding my sword up in a defensive position and backing up

'Try to strike her when she least expects it' Susie said smugly

'I don't need your smooth talk right now Susie' I growled back while running at Applebumpkin

I slashed and was sure I got her but I looked up to see her standing on my sword, she smiled and kicked me in my face and sent me flying back

"Oww" I said while taking off my mask and saw that I was bent inward

"Now I'm mad" I said while tossing it aside and standing up again

I ran at her and saw her pull her hoof back to punch me but suddenly everything slowed down

"Huh?" I said while looking at Susie standing behind her

"Do it" she said while disappearing

I nodded and jumped over Applebumpkin and landed behind her, before she could do anything I slashed my sword right across her eyes and she fell back bleeding.

I got up and looked at the nearby train station and saw my friends waving back at me

I waved and suddenly my sword and armor disappeared as I started to walk to them

"Ace!" Twilight yelled while running to me

I ignored my injures and ran to her as well, as soon I was about to hug her Applebumpkin came from the sky and landed in between us

"You again" I said while summoning my armor again but she suddenly stuck her in the black light and pulled me out.

I gasped for breath as she tightened her grip around my neck

"Rightful owner" she hissed to me

"Huh?" I said while looking at green gas leave her body and went into my nose

We both fell on the floor and laid there not moving

"Ace!" Twilight said while running to me and holding me in her arms

"Don't die on us man" Applesaw said while looking at my body nervously

*Inside my mind*

I sat up instantly and saw the green gas floating in front of me

"There you are" I said while bringing my hooves up in a fighting position

Suddenly the gas turned into a version of Susie but instead it had light green hair and its eyes were a dark green

"Please don't hurt me" The figure pleaded to me

"Why not?" I said while picking it up by its coat

"I just wanted to go back into my owner" she said while holding her hooves up in defense

Before I could say anything she suddenly disappeared into Susie, who was standing in front of me

"What's going on Susie?" I said while looking at her angrily

"Isn't it clear to you?" she said while snapping her hooves and appearing behind me

"What's going on?" I said while turning around

"My plan worked, Luna left you" she said happily

I was taken aback but assumed she was lying to me

"You're lying!" I said while punching at where she used to be

"Oh, just watch" she said while making a small screen appear in front of my face

"Where are we going mom?" Cherry Blossom said while packing her things

"We are going to my sister castle not far from here" Luna said while levitating her bags to the chariot

"But what about dad?" She said while walking and putting her stuff inside as well

"Daddy doesn't care about us honey" she said while trying to put the bags in

"But-" she said before getting cut off

"Just get your ass in the chariot" Luna said while getting angry

She hung her head low and jumped in the chariot, before I could see anything else the screen disappeared

"That's…" I said while taking my ring off

"I know, sucks huh?" she said happily

I twisted the ring in my hoof and suddenly threw it at her, she turned and swiped it away

"Ha! Is that the best you-" she said but was abruptly stopped when I suddenly I slammed my hoof clear across her face.

She flew and skidded on the floor and crashed into her dresser

"Dumb bitch" I said while grabbing a sharp knife and slitting my throat, I felt the cold air hit me and I soon passed out and died in my mind.

*Outside my mind*

I opened my eyes and saw Twilight giving me CPR

"Time to have some fun" I mumbled to myself

I closed my eyes and pretended I was still knocked, she put her lips against mine and I put my hoof behind her head and kissed her in a deep passionate kiss.

She was taken back a bit but soon she started to kiss me back

"Did you miss me?" I whispered to her after we were done

"Sure did" she said while helping me up.

I groaned and dusted myself off

"What happened?" Applejack said curios

"Just some-" I said but stopped when my head hurt all of a sudden

"Damn you Ace!" I heard Susie yell in my mind

I held my head and suddenly Susie came out and floated in front of us

"You!" I said while pointing at her when my headache subsided

"You will all pay for Ace's mistake" she said while disappearing in green smoke

"Who was that?" Twilight said while looking at me

"Susie" I said low enough for only her to hear.

We ran back to the train station in Ponyville and went straight for Fluttershy's cottage

"We need to think of a plan" I said while running ahead of the group.

We arrived at her cottage and turned on the lights and sat in a small circle in the middle of her room

"Think guys, my conscience is running amuck out there somewhere" I said while throwing my hooves into the air and waving them around

"Maybe we could lure her into a trap and corner her" Rainbowdash said while taking to the air

As all of us argued and bickered somewhere in the distance three figures stood in the distance, two of them were Alicorn's and one a little Unicorn.
