"Fly faster, they're gaining on us!" I shouted as a legion of Wyverns began to catch up. Angel held onto my shoulders and lifted me to the green light as I kept a spell wrapped around us to make us as light as possible.

"I'm trying!" she shouted back as she dodged a few flashing lights that whizzed past us and crashed into the roof causing bits and pieces fall in big chunks that dwarfed a thousand-year-old tree.

"Try harder!" I shouted back as I sent my last piece of metal into the skull of one of the Wyverns, which killed it instantly, but a hundred more replaced it soon after.

Two Wyverns caught up and came dangerously close to ripping apart Angel's wings. I directed her to fly directly at one of the falling rock-houses. She obviously didn't like that idea. As we got closer and closer to the falling rock, just a few meters away from the green light. The two Wyverns that caught up began to fall behind. Strange as it was, I looked back to see why and found that the only Wyverns that were still following were the ones that were directly behind us while the rest just stopped.

"Hey, Angel! Only two left!" I cheered.

No response.

I looked up and saw that she was passed out but was still flying. "Oh shit," I thought as I saw how close the house-sized rock was getting. I tapped her shoulder, but still. No response.

Realizing that, we were going to die in the afterlife. I smacked her head as a smaller rock barely missed us. Still no response. Panicking, I lifted my legs and gave my chest some weight back in the hope that the change would save us.

Thankfully my plan was working and we were aimed directly at the green light in the sky, but the rock was still going to hit us! I checked my satchel for any piece of metal that I could use to make the rock move out of the way, but there was none. Thinking as fast as my mind would let me, I charged a current of electricity and sent it into Angel with the hope that she would fly faster. Before I could confirm that it worked. A flash of green light blinded me before the world went black.


Silver sat on her throne, glaring at the four whelps she called guards tremble in their place. Silver wasn't pleased to hear that her mistress is missing. She tapped a claw on her ruby throne, which chipped away its perfect finish. The four guards tails curled between their legs their fear was ever present in the room.

One of them stepped forward hesitantly and spoke with a course meek voice that sounded like a frightened child.

"Alpha, I have terrible news."

"What do you mean by 'terrible news?'" Silver growled.

"Well, ya see. The girl has fallen into the emerald pit."

"WHAT!?" Silver exploded. Silver walked down from her throne down to the petrified mutt that was standing before her.

"Can you repeat that again?" she smiled sadistically as she grabbed the mutt, lifting him off of the ground by the throat.

"She..." he gurgled his last breath before Silver snapped his neck and dropped his corpse like a ragdoll.

The rest of the guard stared in horror at the limp body that used to be their pack mate. Silver can taste their fear and walk towards the closest one still holding true to her sadistic gaze. "Well?" Silver started pointing to the entrance to the throne room. "Go get HER!" The three guards bolted out the room leaving a trail of yellow behind.


I woke up with a headache and a something heavy laying on top of me. I rubbed my eyes and found that I was in a hall with gem lamps hanging on top of the ceiling giving off a soft yellow glow. I looked down to what was pinning me on my back and saw a human pure white hair that came down to her butt which had a black leather tail with a tuft of fuzz that was also white. If that wasn't strange enough, she had two ivory ram-like horns, and she wore clothes that I prayed was made out of cow leather.

I got up and carefully laid her on my lap and waited for her to wake up on her own. At least, I wasn't in hell anymore... I think? I thought as I heard the sound running getting closer to my location. I quickly located the source of the running and saw two diamond dogs bound around a corner at breakneck speeds. If it wasn't for their claws digging into the solid stone, giving them better traction. Then they probably would have run into the wall.

The two diamond dogs ran up to me, grabbed me and my sleeping friend and dragged us back to where I hoped was Silver and not back to hell.

We were dragged back to a very pissed-off Silver that was melting everything with her glare. She took one look at me with eyes that were filled with worry than anything else, but her worry died to absolute hatred when she saw the albino demon, sleeping on the floor beside me.

"Who. Is That?" Silver growled so low that I swear she sounded like a diesel pick-up truck.

"Me found her with other girl!" one of the diamond dogs. Silver reached over to her spear that laid beside her throne, aimed and threw it faster than lightning into the heart of the one that answered. The dog still smiling like he said the right thing, looked down and saw the ruby spear embedded in his chest. He fell over smiling his last with a hard, "thunk!"

"You!" she pointed to the dog that picked me up, "kill it before it wakes up!"

What!

The other diamond dog lets me go and loomed over the albino demon with his claws unsheathed. I looked over to her then to Silver. She didn't take notice of my concern. I didn't care if she was a demon, everyone deserves, at least, one chance. I got up and blocked the diamond dog from getting any closer. Silver clearly didn't like this.

"What are you doing?" she asked still growling like a beat-up truck.

"She saved me, I save her," I growled back. Silver took a step back to figure out what the hell I just said while the diamond dog that was eyeing the girl looking for the best time to strike.

"Why would a demon from the pit save you?" Silver asked too stunned to comprehend anything at the moment.

"She thinks that I am the mythical 'angel' that came down to save her... or something?" I replied. Silvers bafflement disappeared to... what's the word? Disbelief? Ya... Disbelief.

"So, you wish to keep IT as a pet I presume?"

"Sure...?" I guessed.

Silver didn't like the answer that I gave, nor did I. Knowing how much she wanted me to all herself for some reason. I could assume she would get more clingy once Angel wakes up. Then again...I did plan on using her a shield to begin with? I just hope that Silver won't get rid of me in the process. I don't want to know what it is like to be on a cold table in a lab somewhere.


Princess Celestia sat behind a podium in Appleoosa getting ready for the one thousand and one summer sun celebration. She watched patiently at her subjects gather at the podium with awe in their awe eyes. It was a rare occurrence for her to visit this little town. The last time she was her was when Appleoosa was first named, but the celebration wasn't the only reason she was here.

Just a few days ago, she received reports that three on her most trusted guards were brutally murdered by two vicious entities. One of which caused her concern as magic like no other was used to create such a bloody mess. The other was just a rather skilled diamond dog. After the celebration was over, she walked with her golden glad guard at her side to the sheifs office to see if the stallion had any insight as to what they were dealing with.

Celestia walked into a dusty building and was immediately greeted by a dark brown stallion wearing a vest with his badge over his heart, and by a pony that looked like he had too much to drink.

"Hoody Princess! What brings ya'll to my office?" the brown stallion asked. She gave him a warm smile before finding a place to sit and invited him over.

"I am personally here to discuss a certain incident that transpired here a few days ago," she said blankly.

"I-I sees," his gaze darkened, "but, to be honest, wit you. I don't know much that could'a be of help."

"I understand," she assured him,"But one of my guards have discovered something abnormal and we believe it may have passed through here at some point."

The sheriff scratched his chin in deep thought before his eyes went wide with shock. Celestia quickly picked up that something did, in fact, come through here that must have caused quite a commotion.

"I see you know something. Can you please share it?" Tia asked.

"Y-yeah, something like that. Well, ya see your highness. About a week ago some caravaners from Waterloo Mine bringing in some spring water for the crops came in with something strange. I-I don't understand what exactly it was other that it was like none of us had ever seen! And when it woke up, it blew a hole into the wall and vanished."

Celestia pondered for a moment to take in what the sheriff just said. Having such a violent creature within such close proximity to the town, she concluded that the creature was what was responsible for the damage for her guards. Knowing the general location of where the guards were attacked, her eyes darkened knowing that it was closer to her student and knowing Twilight Sparkle. She would most likely try her best to tame such a savage beast that had no remorse for anything that got in its way.

"Is everything alright Princess?" the sheriff asked. Tia quickly got out of her trance and motioned one of her guards closer.

"Sergent Black Water. I need you to send an attachment to the Everfree Forest and make sure no one enter's it until I deem it safe enough."
