Pinkie Pie would most likely have responded to that, but then Luna came crashing down from the sky.

"PINKIE PIE!! WHAT HATH OCCURED HERE!?!" Luna screamed as she gazed upon the beaten bodies of my friends. Not in Royal Canterlot voice, just a girly scream. I decided being around the unconcious bodies of these ponies most likely wouldn't improve Luna's opinion of me, so I turned to take my leave. "NOT SO FAST SHARKY!!" Luna yelled again, this time in Royal Canterlot voice. Her aura wrapped around me again, tightly this time.

"LUNA WAIT! I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU SAW ME, BUT I SWEAR THIS WASN'T ME!" I screamed. Luna scowled at me. "WELL TECHNICALLY IT WAS ME, BUT NOT THIS ME!!" I continued. I'm no good while panicking. Luna appeared just confused enough for me to explain. "YOU SEE, I ACCIDENTALLY RELEASED A MIRROR VERSION OF MYSELF, AND HE'S BEEN WREAKING HAVOC EVERYWHERE AND GETTING ME IN TROUBLE FOR IT!!" Luna scowled again.

"Is that not the most convinient mishap we've ever heard!" She scoffed at me. "Thou art obviously lying, and for this unforgivable crime, we shall excecute thee. Immediately!" The aura around me began to tighten even more, making it near impossible to breath. I could fee pressure building up behind my eyes, like the were about to pop out of my skull. I began absorbing Pinkie's magic as fast as I could. I didn't want to go through the pain of absorbing Luna's powers again. As I began to feel the magic sugar rush coming on, I popped right out of Luna's grasp, like when you try and grab wet soap to tightly. My invisibility was still intact, so I took the chance to run away again. I disappeared around a hedge, and reappeared somewhere else in the hedge maze. Even from wherever I was, I could still hear Luna's cry of rage. "NOOO! HE ESCAPED AGAIN!!!" I flinched at her outburst, but I kept up my fleeing.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dark Sharky was running along at a good pace. He had managed to reach the statue garden when a large wall-like object fell out of the sky and landed in front of him. Dark Sharky was unable to stop himself, and he crashed into the side of the object. He bounced back off of it and fell on his butt. The large wall of pony as it turned out, turned to face him.

"Well, lookee here." Steel Boulder grumbled. He was wearing full armor. "I still owe you a beating from the ring." Dark Sharky laughed.

"Do you really think YOU could stop ME?" He jeered. Steel smirked.

"Here comes the hammer." He stated simply, lifting his massive right foreleg.

"Are you referring to that tiny thing you call a foreleg?" Dark Sharky laughed. At that moment, a huge steel hammer fell out of the sky landing right in front of Steel's hoof. He twisted his head and picked it up with his mouth. "Ah... I see your point... well not really, it's a hammer after all." Dark Sharky looked up. "Where did that come from, anyway?" Steel couldn't respond, but he took advantage of Dark Sharky's confusion and swung the hammer at his legs.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"No no no no no no Princess! You've got it all wrong!" Pinkie yelled at the Night Princess. "That is the real Sharky!"

"Yes, and he hath commited unforgivable crimes!" Luna retorted. Pinkie Pie shook her head at hyper speed.

"That wasn't Sharky! He acidentally made a really mean copy of himself that has been attacking all of my friends! Sharky has been trying to hunt him down and beat him!" Pinkie protested. Luna frowned.

"Can thou prove thine claim? Hath thou knowledge of how he copied himself?" Luna asked. Pinkie Pie frowned.

"No, I don't know spells..." Pinkie mumbled. The she perked up. "But, I do know who can tell you the truth in a way so true that you'll have to believe it!!"

"And whom might that be?" Luna asked.

"Follow me!" Pinkie Pie ordered. Luna wasn't used to taking orders, but she followed Pinkie Pie anyway. Pinkie had seen Fang flying through the air, and she knew where Fang had Fluttershy had landed. Surely Fang could tell Luna!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dark Sharky saw he oncoming blow, but he couldn't dodge it. Instead, he absorbed Steel's magic and the extra muscle softened the blow. His legs were knocked out from under him, and he hit the ground. His leg would bruise for sure, but it wasn't broken. Steel raised the hammer and tried to bring it down on Dark Sharky's head. Dark Sharky saw the blow coming and rolled to the side. Steel's hammer slammed into the ground next to Dark Sharky's face. Dark Sharky scrambled to his feet. When he managed to stand, he stomped on the hammer handle, forcing it out of Steel's mouth. Steel swung at him with his right foreleg at the same time that Dark Sharky swung at him with his right fist. They're blows smashed together, causing a small shockwave. The both flinched at the blow, but Steel, being a hardened warrior, recovered from the shock first. Steel turned on the spot, and bucked Dark Sharky clear off his hammer.

"OW!" Dark Sharky screamed. Steel lifted his hammer once more, and took flight. Not willing to give Steel a height advantage, Dark Sharky took off as well. As he took flight, he searched for where Steel had taken off. Then he felt a hammer hit his back, disabling his right wing. "GRAGH!" He started spinning towards the ground. Dark Sharky managed to pull up right before making contact with the stone statues in the garden. He hit the dirt and skidded a little, but was unhurt aside from a few scrapes. He knew he was losing this fight. Dark Sharky rolled onto his back, and saw Steel charging at him from the sky. He rolled to the side at the last second, and Steel's hammer struck the dirt. Dark Sharky jumped up and spartan kicked Steel away from his hammer. Dark Sharky then reached over and pulled the hammer from the ground himself. He dashed over to Steel and brought the hammer crashing down on his skull. Steel didn't react, his helment had absorbed most of the blow. Dark Sharky managed to get another swing in, aiming for Steel's unarmored belly. The hammer made contact, lifting Steel clear off the ground with the force.

*CRACK* The sound of Steel's breaking ribs echoed across the garden. Steel fell back to the ground and lay there, coughing up blood. Dark Sharky grinned as he realized he had defeated Steel. To rub in his victory, Dark Sharky continually bashed Steel's unprotected body. He relished the sound of his opponent's ribs breaking, and reviled in Steel's pain. After Dark Sharky had finished having his fun, he tossed the hammer to the side and walked passed the motionless body of Steel. He approached a large stone statue in the center of the garden.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I decided to quit running and see if I could get to my evil self. Maybe if I got there I could make sure my crazy half-baked plan worked... somehow. I sighed. I really didn't have a clue what the buck I was doing. I was in the royal garden with one, maybe two of the most powerful beings in the world hunting me down for crimes I didn't commit, my evil double was most likely becoming a powerful chaos-god as I thought, and almost all of my friends were unconcious or Celestia-knows-where. Except Pinkie Pie, but come on, she was a wild card as far as any thing she'd do to help me. I sighed again. Things looked pretty dang hopeless. I shook my head clear of my dark thoughts, and continued onward towards Discord's statue. Before I got there, I heard a loud smacking noise. I walked over towards the sound, making sure to take cover behind various statues on the way. I got to the source of the noise fairly quickly, and I saw an EXTREMELY muscular pony swing a warhammer at my evil double's head as he lay on the ground. I briefly celebrated, thinking I wouldn't have to chance my risky plan after all, but after watching the fight for a few minutes... I knew I didn't have another choice. I watched myself take the pony's warhammer and repeatedly beat the pony several times. The sight made me sick to my stomach. I retched silently a few times, but I haven't eaten in a while, so I didn't vomit. I became enraged. I watched myself walk away towards Discord's statue, and as soon as evil me was gone, I dashed over to the fallen pony.

"Are you ok?!" I hissed at him quietly. One of his eyes fluttered open.

"Heh, come back to gloat? *Cough cough* Just take your victory and leave." He looked around curiously for a second. "Why are you hiding? Scared of a defeated opponent?"

"No, I'm invisible, and I know I sound like the guy that just beat the tar out of you, but I'm different." I consoled him. "Are you going to be okay?" I repeated. He chuckled.

"I've taken worse beatings than this. You here to fight that... thing too?" He asked.

"Yes, I'm here to kill him actually. What's your name?" I asked him. He coughed.

"Steel, Steel Boulder." Steel replied. "You?"

"I'm Sharky White." Steel's eyes flew open. "The REAL Sharky White. That guy is and evil copy of me. I know it sounds crazy, but you gotta believe me." Steel let his eyes close a little more and slowly nodded.

"I've seen crazier things. I believe you. If you wanted to kill me, you'd have done it already." Steel stated matter-of-factly. "Make that bastard pay." He ordered me. Then his head rolled to the side. He was still breathing, so at least he wasn't dead. I stood up and glared at my retreating form. I walked over to Steel's warhammer and picked it up, then I began following after my clone.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"This is the one that shall convince us of Sharky's innocence?" Luna asked in disbelief. Sitting in front of her was a full-grown wolf that she could have sworn she had thrown out of the castle grounds before.

"Eeyupp!" Pinkie Pie shouted gleefully. Luna gave her a confused gaze.

"And how is the wolf going to tell us of Sharky's innocence?" Luna questioned Pinkie Pie. Pinkie frowned and thought for a second.

"Maybe you could check his memories..." Fluttershy said timidly. She had been with the wolf when Pinkie Pie and Luna had found them.

"If thou thinks it will help..." Luna said hesitantly. Both Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie nodded vigerously. Luna sighed. "Very well..." Her horn lit up, and she touched it to the wolf's head.

Wait a minute... this isn't the smell of my master! Luna saw through Fang's eyes as he bit into Evil Sharky's hand. She felt his pain as he was slammed into the floor and kicked. She felt his happiness and desire to help his real master when he woke up in the closet. She felt the rush of energy as he grew thanks to the efforts of Twilight. She felt his embarrassment when he couldn't run right because of his akwardness with his new limbs. She felt the rush of terror and adrenaline as he charged into the boutique to save his real master. She felt all of these things, and knew Pinkie's claim to be true, but what really mattered is what she learned about Sharky's charecter from the wolf's memories. Through all the emotions and feelings that made up the wolf's mind, only one thought was constant. I am Fang, and I love my master.

"We hath done a terrible deed!" Luna cried as she seperated herself from Fang's mind. "Sharky is clearly too caring to have preformed any of the crimes we accused him of!" She looked to Pinkie Pie. "We thank thou for showing us this. We must now go make amends for our wrong doings!" Her horn glowed, and she located her magic still around Sharky. Once located, she teleported herself, Pinkie Pie, and Fluttershy to the statue garden.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"HEY SHARKY!!!" I yelled at myself. Dark Sharky turned to me, but didn't see anything.

"You're too late!" He laughed at me. Luna, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, and Fang appeared in a flash.

"Sharky! We would like to apologize--"

"No time Princess, my clone is about to absorb the power of Discord!" I warned her. She scowled and turned towards evil me, but she was too late. Dark Sharky focused his void on the powers of Discord. He began to swell in size. He let out an evil chuckle.

"THE POWER! THE ABSOLUTE POWER!" He cheered happily. I began to worry, this wasn't how this was supposed to go! I looked down at the warhammer.

"HEY, CHICKEN!" I yelled, knowing the only insult that would effect him. Sure enough, he turned towards me with hate in his eyes. I reared back and threw the hammer at his face. "IT'S HAMMER TIME!" Dark Sharky was too preoccupied with the void to block the hammer, so it smacked him full in the face. At that point, something went wrong. Dark Sharky grimaced and howled in pain. Beams of light began to shine through him as the magice became to much for his body to handle without his concentration. Soon, he began to lookd like a rainbow disco ball.

"GRAAAAAAGH!!!" He gave one last scream, then his body inflated like a ballon. After a few seconds, his body returned to normal size and the lights faded. "Huh, well that went better than I th--"

*BOOOOOM* Dark Sharky exploded into a mushroom cloud that looked something like... chocolate milk. The explosion also sent out a wave of magic, I don't think it effected much, but I could see it had dispelled my invisibility. I fell to my knees.

"Did I really just say 'It's hammer time?" I asked myself, then my brain came to grips with what had just haappened. "YES! WE WON!!!" I cheered. I turned to Pinkie Pie, Fang, and Fluttershy. I ran over and hugged them. "We did it guys! Evil me is gone!" I was practically singing. They all let out happy sounds and we jumped up and down in celebration. Luna cleared her throat.

"*EHM* Well Sharky, as we were about to say, we apologize for accusing you of those horrid crimes. We should have believed you. We do commend you on your clever defeat of your duplicate however!" She pointed a hoof at the place Dark Sharky had exploded. By now it was starting to pour chocolate rain. When I looked at where she pointed however, I could see that there was something strange there where Dark Sharky had exploded. I looked up at the Princess.

"No Luna, you don't need to be sorry. I understand."

"Well yes, but..." Luna stopped talking. I had begun walking away from her, towards the statue of Discord. Then she noticed that something was laying there too. As I approached the thing on the ground, I heard a noise.

"Wahhh, wah wahhhh!" As I approached the figure, I could tell it was CRYING. Not like grown man crying, but baby crying. I finally got to it, and I was standing over a baby Discord. His unicorn horn was straight, he still had one large fang, his little goat beard wasn't there, his eyes looked normal, and he was freakin' ADORABLE!

"OH MY GOSH HE'S CUTE!" I gushed. I stooped over and scooped him up in my arms. I could feel magic emenating from him. I was worried this was some trick, but I could feel Discord's magic coming from the statue too. The little Discord was giving off the exact same energy, but somehow it felt less... hostile. Luna galloped up behind me. I turned to face her, and she gasped and reared back when she saw what I was holding.

"Sharky! Drop that thing immediately! Thou art in danger!" She whinnied. Her horn began to glow.

"NO, WAIT LUNA!" Luna's horn lost the glow, but she didn't look less panicked. "THIS ONE ISN'T A THREAT!" She gave me a wary stare.

"What art thou talking about?!" She exclaimed. "That is our sworn enemy, Discord!"

"No! He's not! Discord is still in the statue! This little guy is... something else." I thought for a second. This thing obviously WASN'T Discord, but at the same time he was. He wasn't a mirror thing either, the magic wasn't backwards like it had been in evil me. "I... I think... This guy is magic." I started. Luna gave me a skeptic stare, but let me continue. "Let me explain my thoughts... Evil me came from a world with no magic, that means that he could take in the magic of this world and use it to copy magic near him. I think that when the magic molded itself into Discord for him, he died without the magic being let out into the world like it's supposed to be."

"That is a wonderful theory, but how does this mean we should not kill this abomination?"

"I'm getting there! Now, when the magic didn't go back into the world, it continued to mold itself instead. That means that it actually made a new Discord! This one is young and problably has no memories of anything. He's not the same as him!" I said, pointing to Discord's statue. "You can't kill an innocent baby!" Luna faltered at my explanation.

"Then.. Then what doth thou propose we do with it?" She asked. I looked down at him and he smiled at me. I knew what she should do.

"Let me raise him."
