Alright I haven't updated in a while because I've rarely had time to actually write anything but I'm doing it now so suck it up. I'm pretty sure I don't need to explain this but I will anyway, I do not own mlp or Hasbro, I only own my OC. Now enjoy the story.
Once we got inside my house I lead them to the living room where an awkward silence was introduced. This was because of the fact they were scared to be in the presence of the Reaper himself and because I was enjoying the looks of fear and uncertainty they were showing. I know its sick but sue me I have to get some humor in my life somehow. I felt my wings getting stiff because of me keeping them tucked in for so long and decided to open them to relax a little bit, but when I did this I heard all the girls gasp while Twilight practically screamed to high heaven, "YOUR AN ALICORN!" I gave her a deadpanned look and responded with, "no shit Sherlock." Then all of a sudden I had the element of Honesty in my face giving me a glare while saying, "now there's no need fur that type of language partner." I gave her my own glare which could freeze over Tartarus itself yet she held strong though I could see her visibly shaken. I gave her a full toothed smile, "ya got guts sweetheart I'll give ya that. Not many can stand up to my glare so I think a little gift is in order." Before she could ask what I meant I had already formed my scythe and stabbed it into her left hind leg. She screamed in surprise but soon realized she felt no pain, "what in tarnation," she said while looking at where I stabbed her to see a shadow travel from the wound all throughout her body before disappearing completely. "Allow me to explain what happened," I began, "what I just did was give you a gift. This gift will appear only when your life is threatened in any way shape or form. What exactly the gift is well you'll have to find out for yourself."
Then Celestia coughed to get my attention. I focused on her and motioned for her to say what she needed to which she did not hesitate to do, " well mr. Reaper I would like to ask what is your real name and why are you here of all places?" I inwardly sighed knowing that I have to answer her questions which I didn't want to but knew I had to, " first off my name is Dark Reaper but you can call me Dark for short. And secondly I'm here to start a life by hopefully starting a family here like I wanted to in my earlier years and yes I am still going to perform my duties as the Reaper even while I'm here."
Just then a black flame came from my shadow and a scroll appeared in front of me with the stamp of my father, "well looks like my newest contract has come already," I said happily as I read it. While I read it though I frowned and turned my attention towards Luna as I turned the letter to ash. The princess of the night grew nervous and asked, "why are thou looking at us." I stood to my full height summoning my scythe and stated in my signature cold tone, " Luna, Princess of the Night and Co-ruler of Equestria, you it has been decreed by Death that I take your soul. Now hold still and I will make this quick." She sat there paralyzed in fear of what I was about to do until her sister and the elements jumped in front of her protectively, "wait just a minute there bub why do you need to take Luna's soul," demanded rainbow. I sighed and said in a true apologetic tone, " for the crimes she committed as Nightmare Moon her soul must be reaped. I know that she wasn't in control of her actions at that time but someone has to pay for it and since Nightmare Moon is not here I have to take the next best thing. I am truly sorry." I tried to continue my advance but they stood firm, I didn't want to hurt them so I summoned some chains from the shadow that restrained them to the walls so I was unhindered as I stood before Luna.
I stood in front of her sadly, this was the first time I had actually felt sad about claiming someone's soul and I hated it. "I'll make this painless and quick Luna," I said as I raised my scythe to strike down the night alicorn when Celestia yelled," wait! Isn't there some way for you not to claim her soul please I'll do anything!" I froze for a second and said in an even sadder tone," you will regret those words." I released her and the element from their chains and faced them while Luna just stayed quiet, " there is only two ways for her soul not to be claimed. Both of which come at a price. Option one is that you must give me a soul to take her souls place by way of murdering the one you wish to use, while the second one is probably even more undesirable," I took a deep breath before I spoke the last few words," You must sell your souls to me as slaves." They looked at me in horror and I knew why. Slavery was a practice that appalled the ponies in many ways so to ease their worries I decided to elaborate, "before you go flying off the ban wagon I'd just like to point out that it isn't actually all that bad, for one you gain immortality, you gain certain powers over darkness, and you can still lead normal lives. Even though you will have to obey my every command you will still have the free will to live your lives as you want them."
They contemplated this for a few minutes before Celestia came forward and said, "I agree to slavery if it means my sister stays with me." Before I could respond the elements then came up each saying that they wanted to be slaves as well for whatever reason I did not know and when asked they al said it had to do with friends sticking together or some stupid shit like that. "Alright if you guys want to do this then so be it," with that said a bunch of shadow tendrils came out of my back and speared all the mares through their hearts and brains while pumping a dark mist into them. As this happened they all began to change, all the ponies save Celestia became alicorns and there manes and coats darkened a few shades though they kept there cutie marks the same color. After the transformation was complete I pulled the tendrils back and they all collapsed into unconsciousness. I look at Luna to see she had fainted from watching, I quickly surveyed the room looking at the eight mares just as a thought struck me, "wait a goddamn minute where the hell are they gonna sleep. I can't just leave them here." I then decided to take them to my room where I managed to fit all of them on my one bed amazingly enough. I walked back down stairs and lay down on the couch to sleep. 'I'll never hear the end of this when dad hears about this,' were my final thoughts before I slipped into a dreamless sleep.
