Not many ponies know about me or what I do, but I prefer it like that. It makes my job easier to do in the shadows!

A white furred earth pony is shown. He has a brown mane and tail, brown spots on his fur, his Cutie Mark was a question mark and he was wearing a black tie. He seemed to be in some sort of office looking over some files.

I have a job, doing missions and collecting information for the Princess. You see over a year ago or something ponies started gaining special powers, using them to either become heroes or villains.

The pony shows some files of heroes and villains.

Four of which formed Equestria's premiere superhero team the Avengers. Since then the Princess set up a secret agency to watch over those who gain powers and trying to recruit them as Avengers or maybe even another superhero team. It became known as the National Equestrian Intelligence Group of High Society or N.E.I.G.H.S. for short.

The pony on his chair spun around so he was now directing looking at the camera.

my name's Coltson, Agent of N.I.E.G.H.S.!

I live in Canterlot as I have all my life, I had previously worked at a desk job at the Palace but when the Princess formed N.I.E.G.H.S. I decided to sign up and it sure as Tartarus made my life a lot more interesting!

Coltson smiles as he looked at one particular files-Blueblood aka Iron Pony's.

Let me share with you some stories about these heroes!

What you may not know is that on the first try Prince Blueblood did not perfect his Iron Pony Armour the first time, here are some of his first tests!"

"Test one of the Armour Prototype" said Blueblood wearing saftey goggles with a chest plate on (with the gem attached to his chest shown); the prototype repulsors on his hoofs with them being connected together with a long wire "activate hover experiment hover...now!"

Blueblood screamed as his Repulsors instead sent him back into a table destroying some valuable ornaments.

In the same room later Blueblood is wearing the prototype armour gear "okay now that i apologised to Aunt Tia and removed everything breakable in the room it's time for test two! Repulsors have been modified so activate hover...now!"

Blueblood's repulsors lifted him up where he hovered for a few seconds before...before they stopped and he landed on the floor with a thud.

Later still Blueblood was in his prototype gear again and said "okay third test of the hovers system where it will work this time...hopefully! Activate hover...now!"

Blueblood's repulsor managed his time to hover above the ground. He then moved about the room for a little time before going to the same spot as before. "Hover off..." Blueblood said and he then fell promptly to the ground.

"Hovers working now...just have to work on landing..." Blueblood said.

As amusing as watching Prince Blueblood hurt himself is, I think you want to see something a little more exciting. Well when the demon bonded with Fluttershy to become the Ghost Flyer escaped, some dark energy of Tartarus merged with a Pegasus called Billy Dumbbell who essentially gained powers of his own leading to the ghost Flyer's first battle as a superhero once she learnt to control her Ghost Flyer powers...

The bully Pegasus from Cloudsdale had changed since being absorbed by the dark energy from Cloudsdale. His mane became messy, his fur had become a paler colour, his wings were larger and resemble demon wings and his white shirt was ripped.

He was on the rampage he had been on for three days since gaining his new powers. When he touched the plants with his hooves, his new powers caused the plans to age and die out extremely fast.

Suddenly when he was flying in the air watching in satisfaction as the ponies ran in fear of him, he was sent to a ground by a flame which hit his back.

He looked to see hovering over him was Fluttershy in Ghost Flyer form. "I have ignored your rampage for too long Dumbbell!" said Fluttershy looking down at her former tormentor "I now embrace my new powers and I know you have sins that must be punished!"

"There is no Dumbbell!" said Dumbbell angrily in a similar demonic voice to Fluttershy's "There is only Blackout!"

The newly rechristened Blackout despite having demonic powers of his own had no defence as Fluttershy sent the fires of Tartarus at him. Knocking him down, he managed to open his eyes to see Fluttershy looking over him.

"Dumbbell or Blackout, whatever you desire to call yourself it doesn't matter!" said Fluttershy "for it is time to pay for your sins...LOOK INTO MY EYES!"

Blackout screamed in pain as he was hit by the Penace Stare, after it was done the darkness that created Blackout left his body leaving Dumbbell in his nearly dead state.

So that's how Blackout became the first victim to the Ghost Flyer's Penace stare! I got one last story to tell you and that's how the Avengers banded together! You see there was Sebastian Thaw a rich leader amongst Canterlot's high class who ran a gentlepony's club called the Hellfire Club. During an accident he and the members of his club gained powers and he decided to use these powers to take over Equestria. He led his Club on a siege onto Canterlot and...well, see for yourself!

The Guards were fighting the superpowered members of the Hellfire Club. Leading them was a white furred unicorn pony with a long black mane and a dark green cloak with a cravat. He was Sebastian Thaw himself.

He then smiled as he saw Blueblood flying down in full Iron Pony Armour (his MKIII armour as it was the latest one he made in that time).

"Well if it isn't Blueblood or Iron Pony your calling yourself now?" asked Thaw chuckling although inside he was seething, during a battle Blueblood was having with a villain his Club had gotten destroyed in the fight again (blaming Blueblood for the incident and due to his arrogance that nothing would happen to his club, it had no insurance).

"You're going down Thaw!" said Blueblood facing him.

"What happened to the Blueblood who didn't like getting his hooves dirty?" asked Thaw smiling.

"I've changed Thaw but it seems your still the same dirtbag you ever were! Armour power to gem!" said Blueblood, then the power went to his gem and Blueblood sent the Unibeam Fire at Thaw knocking him down.

But he soon got up and the scars he had gotten soon healed, "I now have the power to absorb injury to fix my injuries and attributes!" Thaw said laughing and he sent a spell from his horn to Blueblood who dodged.

Then came T'Challa in his Black Panther uniform. "Thought you could use some help Prince Blueblood" said T'Challa and Blueblood nodded, appreciating the help.

The spells his minions were sending at T'Challa were bouncing off his Vibranium costume. Then came Twilight floating, in her Ms Marvel uniform using her powers to fight against Thaw's minions.

"Three so called superheroes I get to defeat today!" said Thaw smiling. From behind T'Challa and Twilight were hit by snow. They turned to see coming to them a female unicorn with a snow white fur and a blond mane.

"You shall face the wrath of the Ice Queen!" said the unicorn firing snow at the Heroes with them dodging.

"Blueblood, I think you have met my marefriend Ms Frost!" said Thaw and Blueblood grunted, Frost was perhaps the most snobbish mare he ever had the misfortune of meeting and that was really saying a lot.

Fire melts snow, you know! said a demonic voice and Fluttershy in Ghost Flyer form flew up and attacked the Ice Queen with the fires of Tartarus.

Twilight looked stunned at this, she heard her friend got powers of her own but her new appearance came as a shock.

hi Twilight, the new friend inside me, giving me all these powers told me you needed my help! said Fluttershy to Twilight in her usual friendly way despite pitch black and covered in fire.

Soon the four heroes managed to defeated Thaw's super powered minions. "This cannot be!" shouted Thaw angrily "I am destined to be the great leader of all of Equestria, I was destined for greatness..."

Thaw's rant was cut short by T'Challa coming to him and kicking him several times. Then for good measure Twilight hit him with a blast as Blueblood and Ghost Flyer at the same time hit him with the Unibeam Fire and the Flames of Tartarus at the same time causing him to pass out from heat exhaustion.

Thanks to his powers he would not be killed however he was so damaged it would take some time to heal himself, by that he would be in the guard's custody.

After the villains were arrested T'Challa said "I guess we part ways now..."

"Why?" asked Blueblood "we did well today, we can form some sort of group to protect Equestria from these villains threats!"

"We can be Avengers!" said Twilight and as the other three looked at her "I think it sounds cool!"

"I'm all for it!" said Fluttershy who had turned into normal form.

"Me too!" said Blueblood nodding as the faceplate of his armour opened up.

"My father taught me it's always good to have friends by your side and not always be alone!" said T'Challa "so I'm in!"

The four then put their hooves together forming the Avengers and later that day with Princess Celestia's blessing they became Equestria's first official superhero team.

Yeah working with N.I.E.G.H.S. I will be working with more of these superheroes! That's all for me right now!

I gotta go home to work on a letter to my marefriend, a cellist I met in my vacation to Trottingham!

Coltson then left the office with his stuff.

Yeah the bit with Dumbbell becoming a villain was inspired by My Little Avengers and the Blackout thing was inspired by Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance. The N.E.I.G.H.S. acronym came from Deviantart user Kenichi-Shinigami which I used with his permission. The Blueblood testing scene I got the idea from the 1st Iron Man movie and no prizes to where I got the idea of Coltson from! Though thanks to Fimfiction user Mystick Starshine for the pun!
