Silver Light of Equestria Ch 4…. Soul what?
Silver and Shadow were walking through town, with ponies staring at Silver, still in shock from what they just saw. They came to the front door, and Silver unlocked the door. Shadow walked inside, but before Silver could a purple unicorn stopped him.
"Uh... Hello?" she asked. "I'm twilight sparkle, and who are you, what was that power we just saw, what was that thing you just killed, are you apart of some secrete service, can I see you in that transformed state you were in?" she asked in a very quick succession.
Silver was a little taken aback. "Um...Twilight was it? Right, I would love to answer your questions, but I really need to send my report in to the princess and see if she known's any more about the situation. I have no idea what those things were, and I will brief the town later… probably." He said wanting to get inside and rest for a moment.
Twilight's ears perked up when she hear the word princess. "You know the princess? How?" She asked
Silver sighed. "She is my superior, I work directly under her. I will explain more once I get my report sent and a response." He said
Twilight sighed a little disappointed "Alright, but I will also be sending a letter to her. I want to know what going on."
"Wait how do you have direct contact with the Princess?" He asked
Twilight stood tall and proud, and puffed out her chest. "I am Twilight sparkle, Celestia's most faithful student." She said
Silver just nodded. "Ah that makes sense. I have heard about you." He said "I'll see you later Twilight." He said walking into his, and Shadows house and closing the door before she had a chance to ask another question.
Silver sighed and walked up the stairs to his room. He sat down on his bed for a moment and just rested. He was a little worn out. He was feeling around for the magical pressure of Chrysta. He was worried for her. She seemed to be in an extreme state of shock, and he didn't want her hurting herself. He found her by a lake. She was stressing out, and pacing trying to calm herself. Silver thought best not to disturb her until she was calmed down.
Silver stood up and walked over to the desk in his room. He sat down and began to write a letter to Celestia, telling her everything that happened and asking what she thought those creatures were.
When he finished writing he, rolled up the scroll and magically teleported it to her.
With in seconds, he felt Celestia make a mental connection with him. "Is all of what you wrote true?" She asked in side his mind.
"Unfortunately it is." He told her. He thought he could hear a worry in Celestia's voice that he had never heard before. "It was probably just the fact that they were talking through their minds." He thought.
"I coming to ponnyville now, this is something I need to talk to you in person about." She said before she broke the mental connection.
"Wait, what NOW?" He asked thin air. There was a flash of light and Celestia appeared in front of him. Silver quickly bowed. "Is it that bad?" He asked
She sighed. "No not at this point but I did need to come in person to explain things to you and the town. I think it will be easier this way."
Silver wasn't entirely sure of that, but nodded. "Alright, how do you whish to proceed?" He asked
"First I want to explain things to you, and my student Twilight, as well as Shadow." She said in a serious voice. "Then I will explain you and those things to the town, so they know that you are protecting them." She said walking out of his room and down stairs.
Silver followed. "Okay, is that all we need to do?" he asked
Celestia hesitated for a moment on the steps before answering. "Yes that is all." She said sternly, but Silver could hear a hint of regret in her voice. He was starting to wonder what was going on with her.
Celestia walked into the living room and sat on the couch next to a napping Shadow. "I have sent a letter to Twilight. She should be here in a second." Just as Celestia stopped talking there was a knock at the door.
Silver opened the door for the purple mare. "Well come on in Twilight." He said closing the door behind her.
Twilight looked over to her mentor with worry written all over her face. "Princess what is going on?" She asked sitting next to Celestia on the couch. Silver sat in an armchair across from them.
Celestia sighed. "Well I guess I should explain Silver first." She said looking at Silver then back to Twilight
"It might help" both Silver and Twilight said at the same time.
Celestia nodded and explained Silver and the Pony Protectors to Twilight. When she was done Twilight looked over to Silver. "That explains so much." She said.
Silver smirked and nodded. "Yeah" He said.
Celestia looked at both of them. "Now for the things you saw. I want Shadow to be awake for this." She said with a glow of her horn.
Shadow woke up with a jolt. "HEY what the Hell?" He exclaimed. "Oh Aunt Tia, It's you. What are you doing here?" He asked
"I'm here to explain those creatures you saw earlier today." She told him with a serious look.
Shadow nodded. "Alright, I don't see why you needed me to be awake." He said in a mood.
"Because I want you to know what they are." Celestia said a little annoyed.
Shadow sighed. "Okay, Okay. I'm listing." He said tiredly.
Celestia nodded. "Good, now those things are known as soul eaters." She said.
"Soul what?" Both Silver and Shadow asked at the same time.
"Soul eaters." Celestia repeated. "They were only rumored to exist, but based on your report Silver I think that we are dealing with soul eaters." She paused before continuing. "Soul eaters are fallen souls that have not passed on. They are a mix of all sorts of beings from all different dimensions. They have to feed on living souls to survive. Why they are only appearing in Equestria now? I think it is just a freak accident, they were looking for living souls to feed on and they found our dimension. They can come in all different shapes and sizes. The ones you fought to day were small fries compared to some of the things I have heard about them. They are defiantly a force we need to take seriously." She said
Silver took in all the information. "So when I was fighting that thing, and I saved Chrysta from it. I saved her from being eaten?"
Celestia nodded "Yes you did, and it's a good thing you did. When a soul it eaten by a soul eater it gets turned into a soul eater." She explained.
Shadow nodded and yawned. "Can I go back to sleep now?" he asked.
Celestia sighed. "Yes I don't need you anymore" she said
Twilight looked at Celestia with a look of shock on her face. "I never knew such things existed. How terrifying" She said to nopony in particular.
Silver stood up. "We need to inform the town right away, of my presence and the danger of those things, what did you call them, Soul eaters?"
Celestia stood up. "Alright then." She said as she walked toward the door.
Just as she reached it the door burst open and a pink pony ran in.
Celestia stepped back a few feet surprised by the appearance of Pinkie pie.
Twilight stood up. "Pinkie what are you doing here?" Twilight asked.
Pinkie ignored Twilight and faced Silver. "Silver it's Chrysta. My pinkie since is telling me that she is in danger." She said as she twitched around where she was standing.
A/N I just want to say thanks to all of you who read and review. The reviews are what keep me motivated to keep writing, so please just take a couple seconds to write a quick review to tell me what you think of the story. I plan on getting the next chapter out sometime later on this week. I want to say Wednesday or Thursday, but school just started and it is a nightmare, so no promises. I do promise to have it up by next Saturday at the latest. See you all later –Silver light
P.S and Yes I did change the story pic this is what silver currently looks like in the story. For some reason it cut off his tail I will try to fix that and repost it.
