First Pearon:Shadow Seeker
the morning started like anyother, waking up in the guest room at carocel bouthave been staying at raritys place for the past weeki have made somefreinds amoung the element of harmony holders, even though only Rarity really trusts me.i started my sword tecniques like i do every morning. After that i checed the time. It was 8:00 am. Perfect as Rarity normaly wakes up around 8 in the moring. I wated 10 minutes and then started practicing the guitar i bought about a week ago. I was getting pretty good. I could play most songs i heard on the raido, from 'Stairway to Heaven' by Led Zeplin to 'Radioactive' by Imagin Dragons. I was een writing some guitar lines my self. I started making a song i am calling 'You Think You Know' more or less based on all of the things i am being blamed for, for example when i first moved here to ponyvile i was almost acused of stealing from the bank. Since then my very own sister, Twilight Sparkle blamed me for every bad thing that has hapened. Except for her whole time travel adveture Rarity told me about. I met Starlight Glimmer since that adventure, she is very nervous around me, probaly because she hears all the things i have been accused for by my sister. Anyways, i spent 20 minutes working on my song. At 8:30 i decided to go to the music shop i bought my guitar from to purchase a bass so i can continue working on my song. I setteled on a basic 4 string bass in the SG body style. The bass cost me 150 bits. I still had plenty left from th 5000 that my teacher sent me. I have also been working with Rarity, all i was doing was helping the customers with various things.
I went back to Raritys place and placed my bass up aginst the wall beside my guitar.
I left the room and decidedto talk to Rarity.
I found her opeing the shop to buisness but like ant other day i knew it would be very busy.
"Good morinig rarity"
"oh, good morning shadow." she replied to me with a look of concern on her face. "thank goodness your okay,"
"why would that be a schock?"
"its just that aparently there is a unicorn called Reaper Mandalore looking for you and that somepony called the Big C wants you dead, i was woried about you with that Reaper character around"
"im sure i can take care of a unicorn, but i apreciate the concern rarity."
"with that out of the way, that song you've been working on is sounding really good."
"well thank you. I just purchased a bass so i can work on another part of the song."
"well i think its going to sound great when you finish it."
"thank you. I just hope i can find someponys who play bass and drums."
"well i dont know anypony who play the drums, but i have always wanted to pick up a bass and learn how to play."
"well i do got one." i replied to my landlord. " you could play it if you want to."
"sure ill try it out later, right now i have to run some errands, i wont be long. Im sure you can hold down the fort for awhile."
"well sure, ill see you later"
As Rarity left i coulddn't help but think of forming a band and playing some shows.
The next half hour or so was just what i expected, no customers. By the 10 minute mark i started writing some lyrics to go with the song i was working on. By the time rarity entered with Rainbow Dash i had the song lyrics ready to record, if i had a microphone.
When Rarity and Rainbow Dash enetered i was shocked.
"what could a mare like Rainbow Dash posibly need in a place like this?" i asked both mares.
"Rainbow Dash here is in love with a satllion named, uh what was his name again deer?"
"his name is Thunder Clap. And one more question like that Shadow, and i will clober you into next week."
"calm down Dash, it wasnt an insult"
"whatever, just dnt metion to anypony i was here."
"i think theyre going to be able to tell youve been here. Ive seen the work rarity dose, it unique to her stlye. In all my time living in canterlot ive never seen anything similar to her work."
ranbow dash let out an anoyed sigh and followed Rarity so that she could get things over with.
When she left the shop she was wearing a somewhat girly dress and here mane was in curls. I did my best not to laugh. When they left Rarity was teaching Rainbow how to act like a lady. I almost predicted the future. If Rainbow Dash has a crush on somepony it would most likley be a athlectic pony who wouldnt expect any pony like Dash to act like a it was lunch i decided to see how things whent. My prediction almost came true, Thunder Clap was desperate to get away from this Rainbow Dash, however she was determened and followed him. I followed as well i wanted to see where this goes. To my surprise the tow of them kissed and then had a little race. Rarity troted up next to me.
"well that wasnt what i expected." she said.
"you said it, i was convinced that it would work out."
"are you saying i would have ruined her chance to get a coltfreind?"
"well no, but i knew that if rainbow fell in love with a pony a dress that made her look like a different pony, proboly wouldnt have worked out, but im surprised it sdid, in a way."
"you always seem to agree with me more than spike dose, and i think he has a crush on me."
"ive seen it, i can see why he would have one though." i said before i thought about what i said.
"where you just admiting that you have a crush on me Shadow."
i was nervous beyond nervous. My mind was in dissaray.
"well, um, i, uhh guess, so." i managed to get out.
"well" she leaned in to kiss my cheak. "i was hopingyou would say that" she said after she kissed my check.
"WHAT." i heard a voice say in a disaponited tone.
I couldnt do anything, i was in total shock. Istead rarity turned around.
"oh, uh, spike, i, um, didnt know you were there." she stutered.
All spike did was run
"SPIKE" rarity shouted at him.
When i finally got my bearings back, rarity had left. All i knew was that i had no idea what happened.
"looks like im not the only one who got a special somepony." i heard a voice from above me.
"i never would have seen that coming." a second voice said. It was Rainbow. "dont think this changes anything, come on Thunder." she said as she flew off.
"i guess youre Shadow Seeker?" a white pegasus asked.
"yeah, im shadow i guess youre Thunder Clap?"
"yep" thunder Clap replied. "rainbow has told me somethings about you. It seems like they were lies thought?"
"well if she told you that if anything bad goes on here in ponyville now its me to blame, then yeah. Ive been here about a week and ive always gotten the blame for roberies."
"well from what i hear bout that white unicorn, if she like a guy like you you cant be as bad as rainbow says. Anyway, i gotta go, ill catch up with you later."
"yeah see ya."
i started to walk towards raritys place when i encountered a blood red unicorn.
"SHADOW SEEKER!" the unicorn shouted at me. "Ive Been hired to kill you and thats exsacty what im going to do."
"WHO HIRED YOU?!" i shouted back at him.
"PRINCESS CELESTIA" he shouted at me and charged at me.
I teleported to raritys place just in time to avoid his scythe. Rarity was shcoked to see me.
"what happened you look like youve seen a ghost?" she awnsered with concern.
"you remeber mentioning Reaper Mandalore? Well i think he found me."
"What, i have to get the girls from what i heard you cant deffeat hime by yourself."
"if you do that i would apreciate it."
she nodded and ran to get her freinds. When she left i ran towards my room to get my katana and ran after rarity.
I found her at my sister castle with her freinds, even Thunder Clap was there.
"so let me get this straight, acording to the pony trying to kill you, he was sent by Celeistia to kill. That just dosent make sense." twilight asked after iquickly explaind what happened.
"Pretty much" i voice said behind us.
We all turned around and Reaper Mandalore was stading there with his scythe out and ready to strike.
I grabed my sword in my magic and went into my battle position. We both charged at each other while the girls got ready to use the elements of harmony. Thunder Clap helped me fight Reaper along with Starlight Glimmer. While most of the fighting was between reaper and me Starlight got i few magic beams through that he blocked and the wind thunder clap was making had no effect on him.
"GET OUT OF THE WAY" Twilight shouted at us just before a rainbow beam decended on Reapers postion. When the smoke cleared, we were shocked to see it missed Reaper entirely.
"is that all you guys got" he insulted.
I charged him with my sword drawn and we began to clash once again. Reaper Mandalore sudenly teleported behind rarity and took her hostage.
"if you want her to live i sugest you put your sword down"
i froze. I looked deep into his eyes and saw something i wouldn't epect to find in side a pony like him. Inside his eyes i saw that he was desperate, but in a different way. I saw that he was desperate to get money. I put my sword down.
"NO the girls shouted including rarity.
I continued to look into his eyes. I used my magic to view his past. What i saw was a life similar to mine. He was born into the bloodline of Princess Luna and a unkown alicorn. But when he showed signs of being weak in magic his parents left him to die in the everfree forest. Somehow he managed to walk to canterlot where he lived on the streets just like i did. What i saw proved to me that he was desperate to get money. His lifed flashed inside my mind. It hapens that Celeistia did want me dead. All this pony was doing was trying to survive.
"ive seen your life Reaper, it dosent have to go like this. I know something about you that you dont know. I know that youve been sent to kill me by Celeistia. But what you dont realize is that you are a decendent of Princess luna. And you dont want to kill me."
"you dont know anything about me. And yet i feel like your are right. I feel like what you say is true. But that dosent give me a reason not to kill you."
"what you dont know is that i am the personal student of princess Luna. I know that what you are going through right now must be hard on you. Just drop yourscythe and we can talk this over.'
"ARE YOU INSAnE" my sister shouted at me " HES GOT RARITY AS A HOSTAGE I THOUGHT YOU WERE HER FREIND. WHY ARE YOU NOTTRYING TO SAVE HER."
i looked at her and then where the rainbow laser hit. I noitced four hoof prints.
"the elements did hit my sister. What you failto realize is that there was never a need for the elements. He is pure on the inside the elements did nothing to him because there was nothing they could do." i softly replied to her. I then look at reaper "put the scythe down and i can help you."
after a minute of thinking he droped his scythe. Once freed rarity ran over to her freinds. I aproached reaper,who was looking down.
"im sorry for trying to kill you. I just needed to get some bits, so i could survive." he said.
"its alright" i replied to him. "in your situation i would have done the same thing. What i want to knowbefore anything else is why would celestia want me dead?"
"i was told that you have caused some destruction and that you were to dangerous to be left alive. I was also told to destroy a town that was suposidly full of people like you. So i slaghtered them all and left one to spread the word." he whispered to me. I nodded in response.
"okay, Twilight, i want you to go to the old castle and see if you can find anything regarding Luna haveing any form of love intrest."
she nodded and left to go to the castle.
"the rest of you just go back to what you where doing before this." they all nodded and started to leave. "Rarity can you help me with Reaper?"
"sure, if you can trust him"
and with that we headed to Raritys place.
Location: Castle of the two Sister.
POV: Luna
i was flying to the old castle to see if what my sister had said been true. I was headed there to confirm what she said about my fiance.
The castle was just how it was when i first wrived a fe years ago. I headed towards the library. When i got close i sensed a presence i havent felt in 1000 years. I stuck to the shadows and listened in on a converstaion between two aliorns.
"oh, hello there" the purple alicorn said to the silver one. "i thought i was the only one here.
"and i thought i was one of the only alicorn."
"yore a alicorn?"
the silver one spreaded out his wings to show the purple one
"i thought there was only 4, Celeistia, Luna, Cadence and myself."
"Luna never mentioned me?"
"she might have, who are you though?" the purple one asked the silver one
"my name is Cyclone, i am Luna's fiance."
"her fiance? I thought she was single?"
"i think she might think that as well, seeing as i haven't seen her in over 1000 years."
"if your 1000 years old wouldn't Celeistia or Luna mention you."
"i guess that Celeistia told Luna i was dead since she exiled me when my love turned into nightmare moon."
"oh, i think Celeistia did mention you, she said that some silver pony caused Luna to turn evil."
"that's the same reason i was exiled, she blamed me for her ignoring her sister."
"i have to tell Luna about this"
"no need to Twilight" i said to them.
