Chapter 2
Thorax the Hero
The next day in Ponyville, there was a news report going around saying that King Sombra had been killed. The news said that a strange black hooded creature with a scythe in a human shape had killed him. The news said that the creature shot a beam from it's scythe at King Sombra and the beam blasted King Sombra into 1000 pieces, killing him.
The ponies reading the news were pleased to know that King Sombra was no more, but they were also horrified to know that this creature was on the loose and there's no telling who will be it's next victim.
Later that day, Starlight Glimmer was in the library all alone and the mane 6 and Neo were out in town.
Starlight was reading a book about magic spells when there suddenly came a fog in the room.
Starlight blinked in the fog and she heard a voice say, "Starlight Glimmer. Your angel of death awaits."
She looked and she saw the black hooded creature with the scythe that Thorax had told her and her friends about that had killed Queen Chrysalis.
Starlight was ready to fight and the grim reaper said, "Starlight Glimmer, you are guilty of brainwashing innocent ponies and forcing them to live a fake life of equality. You have committed acts of communism, and for that, your punishment shall be death."
The grim reaper raised his scythe over Starlight and she blasted a beam of magic at the grim reaper. The blast pushed the grim reaper across the hall and Starlight ran out of the library.
The grim reaper ran after her and shot beams from his scythe at Starlight. Starlight dodged the beams and came into the next room. Thorax appeared and told her to hide, Starlight ran inside a bathroom and hid in there. Thorax changed his form into Starlight and the grim reaper came in and saw Thorax in Starlight's form.
The grim reaper ran over to Thorax and stabbed his scythe through Thorax's chest. Thorax fell down in agony and was bleeding. Starlight saw everything from the bathroom and was horrified by what she just saw. Thinking he had killed Starlight, the grim reaper vanished and was gone.
Starlight came out and saw the wounded Thorax still in her form. She couldn't believe that he was willing to give his life to save hers. Thorax turned back into his original changeling form and Starlight used her magic to make him float. She ran out of the castle while making Thorax float and she took him to the hospital.
Later, Twilight and Neo came back to the castle and Starlight told them everything that happened. About the creature trying to kill her and Thorax taking her form and giving his life to save her.
Twilight and Neo were shocked by what Starlight told them and they couldn't believe that Thorax had given his life to save Starlight.
Twilight, Starlight and Neo went to visit Thorax in the hospital and he was being treated for his wounds. Neo was thinking about this whole thing. This grim reaper creature seemed to be killing off creatures in Equestria that had done evil deeds. And he had a feeling who the grim reaper might go after next. And he knew he was going to have to protect her.
