I hope you enjoy this next chapter and I did read the replies I hope this chapter helps get the images straight. Also one more thing Shadow doesn't have a cutie mark because he is half changeling. I would also like to give special thanks to everyone for being patient with me. Hopefully soon i will have everything back on a time crunch.^^
Shadow stomped his hoof heavily on the ground. "You want me to What!" He huffed heavily, "There's no way i can get close enough for that, not after your last…" He was cut off quickly by Crystalis's sarcastic voice. "What are the big bad ponies too much for my Son?" She grinned watching as his expression changed. "I'm not your Son, You mud trotting troglodyte, and I never said it was too much I just don't think it's a good idea. Not after the mess you made last time." He grumbled then sighed, "Fine I'll do it but only if you do something for me. Once I do this get out of equestria forever." He growled turning and leaving before she could respond.
Chrysalis sighed before raising her voice. "Come my subjects!" With her words the few dozen members of her swarm that were left entered eager to hear her words. "Karma, Fang, and Bolt you go with Shadow I want you to keep an eye on him and make sure he doesn't screw this up." She smiled stretching. The trio was the best fighters and most loyal members in her pack.
They nodded and followed the command exiting the cave swiftly and without question.
"It looksss like That Ssshadow fella issn't trusssted by mother." Stated bolt with an unusual hiss.
Shadow sighed and transformed into a light blue pegasus pony with a breeze as a cutie mark and a neon green mane. "Let's go we need to hurry." He spat watching as each one transformed into their favored pony form before going into town. "Alright now we all know the mission so let's hurry up and get this over with, the sooner this is done the better I will feel, with mother's promise in tow… I will not fail." He scoffed and proceed deep into the heart of Ponyville.
Danny Flopped on his bed , "God that trio is exhausting… and those Babies, They were so rambunctious." He smiled despite his complaints though. "But I did have a lot of fun. It's nice to be free again... " He chimed but the happiness vanished quickly as a thought crossed his head. But you're still a freak a ghost half breed and when they find out they will want to punish you for your existence. Just like my family and the guys in white. He felt his eyes well with tears. "Why can't I be normal all I want is to be normal." He walked over to his mirror and changed growing back his limb and losing his wings growing a horn. He looked himself up and down growled and placing his hoofs on the sink slamming a hoof into the mirror. "THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT! IT'S ALWAYS YOUR FAULT!" He screamed as tears dripped down his cheek. "I can't handle going through that again." He cried sitting down his head dropping as he changed back. "I will always be a freak of nature thanks to my warped luck."
Slowly walking back over to the bed he sighed looking at the window. "Maybe since it's so late maybe I can go for a flight. It will help me clear my head." He smiled weakly walking back inside he left a note on his desk and transformed shooting out the window not wanting to take the chance that someone would see him. Danny smiled flying through the air at full speed the full moon lighting up his bright snow white hair making him seem like he is glowing. The feeling of the wind whipping through his hair and across his back in what seemed to be fresh air made him feel happy. "This feels so nice he chimed doing several loop de loops bursting through several clouds. After receiving a few satisfying pops he landed skidding to a halt. He laughed softly and dropped down breathing heavily. He hadn't flown free like that in years, He started laughing rolling in the grass. "It's so nice to be free again after so long, I never want to go through that again." He smiled but his happiness was interrupted by a light cough making Danny jump up and tremble. "Who's there?" He growled softly trying to conceal his fear.
Spike smiled and walked out of the shadow. "Hey it's just me." He smiled walking over to Danny stopping a few feet away. "Sp-I mean who are you?" He stated hoping Spike hadn't seen him change. Spike smiled, "You can drop the act Danny I know it's you. But don't worry I won't tell." He chirped placing a paw over his heart. "It's a spike promise." Spike watched Danny a moment seeing how he would react.
Danny trembled, "Y-you know b-but I… You can't. I can't. You can't make me go back." He stated feeling his eyes burn with forced away tears. "Please I don't want to lose my freedom not again." He stated softly. Spike smiled and rubbed his back. "Hey I won't tell. I know you want it to stay a secret." He chirped laying down on the grass looking up at the sky.
"So how did the space program work out for you?" He asked tracing the stars with his eyes. He had never taken a good look at the night sky but it really was quite pretty. He watched waiting for Danny to calm down and sit next to him. After a few moments Danny realised Spike didn't freak and sat down wearily. "I-it went well I had several good ideas and they want me to join there team." He smiled weakly his ear flat against his skull as he watched Spike closely. "I love the stars but they're so different here." He mumbled softly looking down at his hoofs. "But they said since I don't have four hoofs I can't go to space… I would be a liability. They offered me a desk position." He shifted slightly, "I-I didn't want a desk position… Spike what do I do?" He mumbled softly looking at Spike. "C-can we talk more?" He shook his head and smiled, "Never mind we don't have too."
Spike smiled, "We can talk whenever you need too. I will be here to listen and I promise everything you say will be locked up tight in here." He chimed pointing to his head giving a reassuring smile. "After all we are friends."
Ceastial Shouted, "They're on the move mistress, They left to Ponyville and they have their target." it seethed as it's spirit overcasted a shadow over the crystal ball. It grabbed the ball and raced over to the female pony who was now bottling her brew with a scoff. "We must hurry, The boy must be prepared. Their isn't a moment to waste." The pair flew out of the room towards a glowing green entrance going through the exited deep in the everfree forest a three mile walk to ponyville. "Let us go It's still late here so we can handle this before anyone wakes. They pair took off into the night sky. The moon lighting up their silhouettes as they flew at full speed leaving no trace of themselves as they left.
