never again...

Why me? Why do I have this gift?

 

Night star cried that all night and all day as all around him were the bloody corpses with organs strained about of his only friends he had ever had. Gashes, teeth marks and what remained of bruises were all over them. Yet Night was unharmed and as guards found the poor colt, he looked guilty, covered in blood that was not his own.

3 hours later...

Luna did not come to the trial in what most thought was anger, they could not be farther from the truth. It was in sorrow and disbelief.

Why? Why my student and more? Why night my..

Her thoughts were interrupted by Celestia coming in and telling her that the punishment for Night was death. Luna broke into tears....

"May I ask something, why guilty?"

"Because, you re a murderer and a killer now SHUT UP" the guard yelled at Night.

As the crowded formed, Night was being prepared to die. The guards looked at Night with confusion for even full grown stallions are afraid of death yet they felt no fear coming from this young colt. Instead they felt him to be at peace knowing he is dead meat. They could not understand it. No one could understand.

As the time that he would hopefully die, the guy to do the deed sharpened his newly made Axe, celestia tried to understand her sisters pain and Night smiled in hope.

Soon my friends, soon I can see you again.

12 hours later...

"Today, we witness the death of a murder and killer, Night star." The speech continues for a short time. Lance said one thing before they put him down on the chopping block, only one thing

"Why am I guilty when I-"

He was cut off by the guard behind him pushing him down and gagging him.

As the axe lifted up, the guard could have sworn that he did not show fear again in his final moments. The axe came down when everypony within a 50 mile radius heard a sound of a window shattering. Everypony looked around to see were the noise came from and eventually, their eyes settled on the chopping block. The axe was in shards everywhere.

They looked at Night and night was unharmed. They brought out a silvered axe encase he was a demon with the same results. They eventually grabbed a crossbow and shot a bolt in to his head, same outcome. Night was unharmed.

Spiting out the gag, Night said "Why guilty when I watched as my friends and family died while I lived!" Night cried "They were my only friends and they were murdered in front of me! So I say, WHY GUILTY! Never more will I see their faces. Never more will I laugh and play with them. Why? Because they were murdered! And you blamed me! You blame me for killing me only friends and my father!"

If anypony was not paying attention or was trying to ignore that this was going on they were now. The guard that felt sorry for him and did not believe that Night killed all those people came up and grabbed him, hoisted him up, and took him away.

Meanwhile...
  

When the royal princesses heard the sound they looked out the window to see the axe in shards. Now Celestia knew what was going on while Luna looked in horror.

"He cant be, can he? No please no. For his sake, please tell me that he is not a-" Luna was cut off.

"He is. I'm sorry for all the pain the this day has brought you. First the murder and now your-"

"I know! I just, I need a moment alone. This is to much for me."

10 minutes later....

Night was dragged to a hidden armory under the castle. The place was dark, yet in a strange way, bright.You could see perfectly yet know that it is really dark. He heard the guard mutter "Why a kid? It does not make sense."

Night ignored the guard and focused on the weapons on the wall. They were amazingly crafted and designed. But they seemed, odd to him. It almost seemed like they were his but he never have seen them before.

"Come" the guard said " we are almost to the forge. hm?"

The guard looked at Night and saw his cutiemark form. It was of a blue and red twin swords crossed over a purple shield. The guard thought Man, he is the guardian. I am so sorry kid, but you will have a terrible road in front of you, filled with sorrow.

Night looked at the forge and was in heaven with the quality of the armor and weapons every where. He paused in front of a curtain peace of armor. It was a cloak with shoulder armor on one side. He took it, put it on, and looked in the mirror.

The alicorn that looked back was a alicorn without the capability to use magic at all, practically making him an Pegasus, with a black coat and a dark blue and red mane and silver eyes that were not blind.  

"Hey kid! Wow, you look like you could kill and you are not even welding a sword. Any ways, come here I need you for a second it is important."

Night being as silent as ever came to see what was needed, but not before folding up the cloak and hiding it in a saddle bag he found.

Up above in Luna's room...

Were is that brat! thought Celestia I should find him easily! Unless, god dam it! Lance must be with him! That bastard is a master of anti-seeking spells!

"He will get away and become what he is destined to, you know that don't you." said Luna with remorse in her voice "He is to powerful, even when dormant as he is."

Back to Night...

"This will hurt if it can touch you." said Lance holding a needle "It will allow us to give you a free will weapon, a weapon that you can summon forth at any time. Only 3 ponies have ever done it successfully and I think you can as well."

Night reluctantly put his forelegs out and was surprised to find that the needles penetrated his skin. He felt no pain however and was confused of why.

Suddenly, two marks appeared on his forelegs, one was a blue fire the other a red wave. Both seem to be like the other in some way. Out of curiosity, Night taped the blue one to find a blue short sword in that hand that held the mark. He did the same with the other with the same result but a red blade instead. With a spark of interest he pressed both at the same time to find a half blue have red long sword in his hooves that pulsed with raw energy.

"Now you truly are a guardian." stated Lance

"Wait,... what?"
