Its been a couple of months and things were pretty relaxed other than having to help twilight out with dealing against a mare named trixie but she was being controlled by a evil alicorn amulet that I destroyed once it was removed from her. The bad news is that her caravan was destroyed and she now lives with twilight, me and spike and right now I lm looking for a big house I can live in so I dont take up space so far theirs one on the other side of ponyville located just a few feet in the everfree. Its an old mansion thats needs a total make over and alot of things fixed like the walls, roof, doors and the floor and so on, so on. Right now Im reading at my desk and it was nighttime.

"Hey steel can you come down here for a second?" Twilight called up to me, I got up from my desk and walked out my room then started down stairs only to find it empty and the lights were off.

"Twilight... spike... trixie?" I called out walking in the center then heared the door creep open from behind me I turned and found five men standing infront of me wearing cloaks. "Who are you and were are my friends?" I asked and raised my fists.

"Follow us steel fox, there is something we must discuss in private" One of them said their voice was deep and serious.

"Not until you tell me were my friends are?" I demanded and glared at them.

"They are fine, your friends have been asked to go to canterlot for a day or two now if you will" The one in the middle said, he seemed to be the strongest amongst them so much so that it was compared to mine with ease.

"...Fine, lead the way" I said putting my fists down but not lowering my guard, they all walked to the basement door were one of them put a key into the lock then twisted it right. "What are doing?" I asked confused until they open the door and I saw faust and stardust sitting right infront of the door almost like if they were waiting. "What the hell?"

"Steel please... come in we need to talk" Faust said her tone and voice serious along with her stare, the five men that were their had vanished leaving only leaving the assassins symbol on the door. I walked in and shut the door only leaving me in silence as the two most powerful beings I ever came across sitting with an atmosphere that hung heavy around them and making it hard to speak.

"Steel we need your help its something you and most likely you alone can do" Stardust said catching me off guard at this.

"Something... only I can do" I repeated and they both nodded and stood up from the chairs before walking over to a photo of the two of them with ryle, altaïr, the brothers and connor and in the middle was a mare that looked excited beyond belief and was wearing a crystal crown on her head. Her fur was pitch black along with her mane and tail, her eyes were pale green and she was smaller than all of them showing that she was either in her teens or as the same age as scoots maybe just three years older at most and she was an alicorn. The sisters stared in sadness at the picture I walked to the picture and stared at it. "Who is this little girl?" I asked them and they showed me another picture of her holding both of the sisters hands except she seemed smaller.

"This... was, our sister she had changed her name to umbra after she had changed" Stardust said and I stared at the photo in Shocked knowing there's another ancient sister except younger and possibly scoots age.

"Your sister she looks as old as scootaloo or applebloom at most" I said still staring at the photo but something else came to mind. "You said she changed... in what way?" I asked them.

"It... was so long ago yet it felt like yesterday, me and faust were helping her with a few things and our grandfather and uncle's were out on a mission to stop the griffins from attacking. We were in her castle fixing it up and making sure that everything was fine and... then..." Stardust couldn't finish and starting crying faust went to comfort her sister and went to sit her down.

"We were not paying attention to her, apparently she felt like we were neglecting her for the longest time and gave her a kingdom just to get her away from us but we thought she would love to rule over a empire to see what its like to be a queen... so she ran into the ice cold tundra that surrounded the kingdom to get us to notice her but she ran away without even saying anything causing us to panic and have every single pony to search day and night for her... until they found her almost half frozen to death with her fur turning half white we thought it was the snow but after we warmed her up and brought her to full health it stayed their. We went into it more to try and help her but what we didnt notice was her changes she had grown taller as tall as us, her eyes went a darker shade of green and her iris went purple... it wasnt until it was to late that we found her completely turned evil and even tried to kill us out of hate and rage" Faust said sitting down and holding her sister who was still crying, I was left in a blank state I couldn't even comprehend how horrible they felt seeing their little sister just turn in them because she felt neglected and they didnt even know. I sat on a chair in a state of shock and wonder if thats how I would have ended up if I hadn't met ryle or came here and met my friends or if I hadn't met luna.

"Umbra's real name was actually diamond heart queen of the crystal empire" Fuast said making another question pop up. Whats the crystal empire?

"What is this... crystal empire you mentioned it a few times but I never seen it on the equis map much to my knowledge" I asked and they showed me on more picture with a city fully of colorful crystals and diamonds and the sun shined bright in the sky and on the snowy ground, it was beautiful even in this photo.

"That is the crystal empire... the place that we sealed diamond she did get out at one point but our daughters went to stop her only for diamond to seal herself away again only this time hidding the one thing that holds all her power and her old self" Stardust said finally calming down but still sniffling. "But their magic was not strong enough so they combined their power and sealed her away again only for it to be broken bringing the empire back... along with umbra"

"I see... is their a way to change her back?" I asked and they didnt know, they searched day and night for the past 600 thousand years but still found nothing just an animal name.

"It took us that long to only find a name, it was called the frost might its is said in the books that if this beast has struck you, bit you, or frosted your body even by a little your inner most dangerous demons will be set free and you will undergo four stages, one is the fur changing from their original to snow white, the second is the change in attitude, three is body transformation which means changing into your own inner demon almost like luna and nightmare moon, and finally number four full body take over the affected stallion or mare is completely turned into a horrible and brutal beast of their inner most horrific demons they possess and they separate from their good side and trap them in their personal soul object in this case diamond hearts soul object was a heart made of complete crystal with a smaller diamond heart in the center. Their she is trapped and we dont know any way to save her" Faust said handing me the book and the frost might was a large snow white monster standing on two legs that resemble a wolf, a fox and a human due to its six tails, head shape thats matches a wolf, claws of a wolf and the small but muscular tone body of a in shape human man.

"This is strange, such a creater that can manipulate your own feelings and turn them into physical beings if I was twilight right now I'd be fan-girling so hard but this is a serious matter... you said its retured correct? If so then for how long?" I asked them.

"Its been over four days since its been brought back and your friends cadence and gleaming went to go rule over it and protect the ponies living their Im not sure what celestia is going to do but I hope she acts fast umbra can be quite cunning, she was considered the worlds most smartest mare in all of existence even past us at age sixteen" Stardust said and brought up a crucial matter.

"About that um... how old is she?" I asked them and they had to think for a bit scratching their heads.

"Id say around... 22 million years old giver take a few years just a few years down me and stardust" Faust said and I felt my left eye twitch a bit and loom at the young girl in the painting.

"Is she you know still considered a kid?" I asked and they shook their heads.

"Actually if she were here now she be atleast your age if she wasnt immortal " Faust said and I gave a long whistle.

"Neat... hmm I wonder is she considered petite by you two since of her small body?" I asked they nodded. "I see... Im kinda hoping that I dont scare the nice diamond" I said getting questionable looks from the two sisters.

"What do you mean?" Stardust asked me and I chuckled still staring at the picture.

"Simple, Im going to release diamond heart from her crystal and diamond prison and kill umbra" I said causing them to stare at me in shock. "You said she was split from her evil demon right so all I have to do is free diamond and kill her evil self simple as that though Im pretty sure she might put up one hell of a fight" I said and walked to the door back to the library. "Oh that reminds me why are twilight and the others at canterlot and why didnt they bring me?" I asked the sisters.

"Dont really know but I do know celestia summond all them but left you out of the letter for some odd reason, maybe it was your fun time with my daughter" Stardust said with a shit eating grin and I turned red. "Honestly I say she picked a keeper even became her first friend even after she tried to kill you" She said and they giggled at how much I was turning red.

"How uh *cough* how did you know?" I asked kinda scared she might make me break up with luna though she did say I was a keeper so maybe not.

"Just like luna I can enter dreams and lets say she was having a pleasant dream about you and your friend down their" Star said causing me to laugh nervously and cough a few times while she still kept her shit eating grin.

"Y-you know I-I think I should um go have a little visit to the castle so uh... thank you for the information and I promise to bring back your sister" I said and turned to the door and opened it but faust stoped me.

"Its not forbidden for royalty to date a commoner you know, so if your secret got out then theirs nothing celestia can do" Faust said and I smiled at this before leaving through the portal back and shutting it close.

"Thats a relief atleast... lets get going to the castle I hope everyone is ok without me" I said and grabbed a few things like lilys sword and my katana I strapped the katana on my hip while my fix sword was strapped to the left side of me I also grabbed my assasssin gauntlets before using my magic to teleport to the others.

(Canterlot castle)

Everyone was in the dining hall having a nice dinner in silence although they wished that I was their to start a conversation or share a story from my world hell even crack some jokes. But no it was silent only the sounds of the fork and knife hitting the plates and sometimes a little request from each of them.

The silence was heavy until greenie had enough. "Alright who's fuckin idea was it ta not bring steel its to god damn quiet!" He said slamming his hands on the table in frustration rainbow and aj both agreed even the assassin sisters who loved things to be quiet.

"Have you forgottin that he was sick today, he was so out of it he didnt even get out of bed so I left him be to rest and so here we are bored out of our fuckin minds... pardon the language" Twilight said moving her plate and put her head down.

"Its to quiet I wanted steel to tell a story or something" Rarity said sipping her wine.

"Amen" Jack said and requested some whiskey which he got in seconds before chugging the contents. "Never had this stuff in my life but fuck it" he said and drank some more.

"I dont see what the big deal is, a dinner is supposed to be quiet not a full of ponies talking that just distracts you from eating" Trixie said messing with her drink. "But I will agree... its boring"

"Alright alright thats enough I know you all want steel here and have fun but he is sick so we must let him rest" Luna said then saw her sister and the vanilla giving a shit eating grin while chocolate blushed a little knowing what they were thinking about. "What?" She asked and started drinking her wine.

"Oh nothing luna... so when are you and steel gonna fuck?" Celestia asked out of the blue making all the girls blush making greenie choke on his food and jack choke on his drink. Luna, hearing this, spat out her drink and coughed a few times.

"CELESTIA!" Luna growled at her and celestia laughed along with vanilla. "Why are you asking me such a private topic for mothers sake" Luna said cleaning herself off with a napkin.

"Oh I dont know maybe because you love him" Vanilla said making her go beet red and cough nervously in her hand a few times, the others looked at her in curiosity to see if this was true. "C'mon admit it princess you wish you can tear his cloths off and have him rut you like you were his personal slu-"

"Vanilla!" Chocolate blurted out and covered her sisters mouth making but damage was done and Twilight's, rarity's, gilda's, trixie's, chocolates and lunas face flush red.

"I-I... um I seem to have lost my appetite I will see you all in the morning good night" Luna quickly said getting up and teleporting to her room.

"Vanilla seriously ya went a little far dont you think?" Strings asked her and she shook her head.

"No because I know she wants to do that to steel badly, why do you think she was so flustered, she love's steel and I think steel love's her" Vanilla said with a confident smile while the others were curious as to why.

"Why would they love eachother?" Twilight asked and rarity was thinking to herself a bit then squeed. "Geez rarity whats got you so excited?" She asked her fashonista friend who was smiling brightly.

"Its so obvious how in the world did I not see it, all the signs, all the movements to eachother its all their" Rarity said confusing the others and she noticed they were seeing her fan-girl a bit. "*Ahem* Sorry about that but I just realized that their perfect for eachother!"

"What c'mon rares thats crazy talk Im sure that steel and luna are close friends" Rainbow said. "Theirs no way a princess and a badass guy like him could-oh my god they love eachother" Rainbow said and rarity gave a smug look.

"See! Steel and luna are perfect they both love the night, they both love history, they love to fighting to help others, they despise snooty nobility, they hang out with eachother all the time, need I say more darling?" Rarity asked them.

"Rarity I'm sure steel thinks luna is only a friend like all of us, yes they are closer than they are with us and yes they share similar intrest and both have a dark past but that just makes the friendship bond unbreakable" Mint said and rarity scoffed, they all argued about this until the doors opened up revealing luna with a evil grin. "Ah we can put our rumors to rest luna are you and steel dating if not than you can prove rarity wrong" Mint said.

"Oh I dont know whats your answrr steel?" Luna said looking over her shoulder and I walked up behind her with a smile.

"Me and lulu here are just really good friends and nothing more" I said wrapping my arm around her then I threw a knife with all my strength letting it pass celestia's head and digging itself into the wall until it was at the guard. "So whats this about me having my way with luna? Celestia, vanilla?" I asked them both as they stoped starring at the knife their eyes wide.

"O-oh uh did we say that, I don't recall well its been a nice diner twilight and steel meet me in the throne room bright and early, everyone have your stuff ready and sister I will see you in the morning good night!" Celestia said quickly and teleported faster than I could blink leaving all of my friends shocked while some were still looking at the knife.

"Welp thats that I'm tired so Im gonna hit the hay see you in the morning" I said letting luna go and walking to her tower, after a few feet luna caught up with me and we started laughing. "That showed her not to say such things" I said through my breaths while luna was still laughing.

"Oh that was to good the way she ran away in such a hurry I was surprised I didnt burst out laughing right then and their, I am suprised your here though twilight had said that you were sick what happened?" Luna asked me and I shrugged.

"I did feel a little sick this morning then I took a nap and bam I was as healthy as a horse... no pun intended" I said making her giggle, luna grabbed my hand and leaned on my arm with a sigh I smiled as she did and we walked through the halls next to eachother not really caring about the world until we made it to her room. "Well I think I earned a little sleep dont you think?" I asked and opened the door and let luna in before I entered in myself.

"Well we can spend sometime in your dreams if you like shouldnt be to bad right?" Luna asked sitting on her bed, I joined her and took off my weapons then my shoes.

"Yeah that would be nice just me and you" I said taking off my shirt then my necklace.

"You still have the necklace I gave you how sweet" Luna said with a smile and kissed my cheek I smiled back and kissed her.

"Of course like I would get rid of it, not even god himself could make me throw it away" I said and she awed at this before nuzzling into the crook of my neck. "Alright lets head to bed I need to be up early for my morning exercises and meeting" I said and gentle pushed her away from me making her give a adorable pout. "Hey how about we spend sometime with pip and scoots in their dreams you know make sure they know we aint dead" I said getting into bed luna agreed and stripped to her underwear. "I said dream walking not sex time" I said and she rolled her eyes.

"Oh ha ha you should be lucky to stare at my body" luna said climbing.

"Oh I am lucky that I was the first man to have sex with a beautiful mare" I said causing her to blush heavily then repeatedly hit my arm lightly.

"Dont say it like that it was a special moment for me" luna said making me chuckle at her actions they were almost like a kid saying they wont forget how much fun they had at a park.

"Calm down my princess I wont forget either because I love you and you wont forget because you love me" I said grabbing her and bringing her closer. "Now lets go check on scoots and pip yeah."

"Ok c'mon" Luna said with a playful smile and turned off the lights before we both fell asleep.

(Dream world)

I opened my eyes and saw rows and rows of doors each one of them different than the next which kinda got me curious as to which door mine was but saved that though for later and began wondering around looking at the many doors. Their was one door that stood out the most actually two doors, the door on the left was pitch black with the words brigid etched in fire and little fountians of lava roamed down the sides and a fire crown floated above it.

"Definitely brigids... but whats this one?" I asked myself and saw a ghostly blue door with six chains wrapped around the edges, each one supporting a chilling dark matter color on them and a skull with sharp teeth at the ends, the door itself looked pretty durable at the least and on the top of the door was my name etched in pure light but when it got to fox all of it shifted to black, then finally above that was a black crown molded in pure darkness and behind the crown was pure white wings made in the purest of light. "Wow so this is my door It looks pretty scary from the outside" I said placing my hand in said door and felt it was smooth to the touch.

"Yes when I first saw the door It sent chills down my spine, I will admit its kinda intimidating to say the least more than your sisters" Luna said appearing next to me.

"Its cool how all the dreams have a door to the stallions or mares mind" I said completely fascinated but felt lunas fingers interlocking with mine then she pulled me to two doors one was a regular white door with brown spots and the name pipsqeak on it in black, the one next to it was a orange colored door with wings on the side and the words scootaloo in dark purple. "Here we go" I said and reached out but felt someone start having a nightmare I looked around and found what I think is twilights door, mainly because it was purple with the words twilight in pink and her cutie mark etched into it.

"Seem's our bookworm friend is having a nightmare" Luna said about ready to open the door but I stoped her and went to the door. "Steel what are doing?"

"Let me handle this on I'll meet you in the kids dreams" I said and opened twilights door before being engulfed in light for a split second then feeling warm all around.

"You have failed twilight sparkle, you are not even worth calling a student you will no longer be attending my school, you wont send anymore friendship reports and you are forbidden to see coal wing again" I heared celestia say behind me, I looked and saw twilight crying as celestia didnt even look at her or even comforted her. "Guards take this... trash out of my sight" Celestia demanded and her own sister came and grabbed her.

"No please I swear I-I'll do better please Im begging you princess please!" Twilight sibbed out as gleaming dragged her, this is were I had to cut in. I stood infront of gleaming and swiped my hand across her head and she vanished, twilight was on her knees crying her eyes out because of thus stupid nightmare, I kneeled down and put my hand on her shoulder causing her to flinch but slowly look at me. I had a warm comforting smile almost like I was saying 'everything will be alright', she wrapped herself arlund me and cried in my shoulder.

"Your ok twilight... this reality will never happen, if it does just know you got your pal steel to help you pick the pieces up and placed them back together" I said hugging her back, the room was completely black nothing but a void making me have an idea pop in my head.

"S-Steel please dont leave your my only friend now... they all left rarity, rainbow dash, pinkie, fluttershy, aj, coal *sob* everyone so please dont go" twilight sobbed out and cried on my shoulder making my shirt damp, I wrapped my arms around her and offered her a smile.

"Twilight, Im not going to leave over a stupid test no one is going too do you know why?" I asked her as she looked up to me with bloodshot eyes and raw cheeks. "Because your our friend havent you learned anything twilight?" I asked with a slight chuckle and petted her head softly. "Theirs a saying I heared once and I go by it everyday" I said catching her intrest.

"What *sniffle* what was the saying?" Twilight asked me.

"Life is designed to knock you down. It will knock you down time and time again, but it doesn't matter how many times you fall... it only matters how many times you get back up and try again" I said and she seemed to be feeling better a little and wipped her eyes from falling tears and separated from the hug. She sat their taking deep breaths and she finally calmed down.

"I see what you mean... it doesmt matter if I fail or not because I could always come back and try again but the question remains how many times will I pick myself up each time I fall to the ground?" Twilight asked with a sad frown but I snickered a bit.

"I dont doubt you twilight.... your the smartest pony I've ever met and I met the man who taught me that quote" I said lying down on the floor, the darkness was getting boring so I waved my hand and the room was filled up to the brim with a whole field of flowers and a calm river next to it. "Much better dont you think... twilight are why you so scared?" I asked her hoping she would open up a bit because she's more of the keep to herself type of mare but she sighed and began telling me.

"All my life I've been casted over by my sister because she was so smart and pretty... I never really gave it thought until a boy asked me for gleamings number instead of mine, after that I sorta just... Shut my girly self away and started studying non-stop, never taking a break and only eating when necessary I was already in celestia's school but I spent my whole life their just studying, not caring what other thought of me. Until me and the girls met, they showed ms kindness and made me feel like an actual pony instead of a shell of one then we met you and well admit I sorta had a crush on you that made me bring out the girly side out and then I met coal... Oh Im sorry I went on a full rant about my life" Twilight said with a bit embrassed but I snorted softly.

"Its fine twilight, Im here to listen your problems and help you through them as much as I can" I said and she gave a small smile. "Oh I need to get back to my own dream, just remember twilight if you fall you can always get back up no matter difficult and if you have this bad dream again think of me and I'll fight them off for you... goodnight twilight see you in the morning" I said before a door popped up and I left the dream leaving a happy twilight, but she felt something else in her heart making it beat faster.

"Uh-oh"

I came out of the dream and slowly closed it before lightly jogging to luna and the kids, I grabbed hold of the doorknob and entered the dream. The dream itself was unexpected, it was when me, the guys, the sisters and luna went to go save them and it was showing me carrying scoots and seeing pip beimg hled up by luna out of the dark house wearing my assasssin robes and having my glowing red eyes.

"I will protect and save you and pip from anything no matter what" Dream steel said as scoots smiled happily. She looked so happy as me and luna comforted her and pip and brought them back home to their friends.

"Make's you not wanna stop this dream huh?" Luna said sniffling a bit I chuckled softly before bringing her in for a hug.

"Aw dont cry luna... c'mon lets go say hi to pip and scoots yeah" I said grabbing her hand, she nodded and wipped away a few tears before we made our way to the dream copies. We moved our hands through them.

"Steel? And princess luna what are you guys doing here... and I was having such a nice dream" Scoots said pouting and pip smiled at us.

"Ah dont be like that scoots thought youd be happy to see your ol' pal steel and make sure you know Im not dead" I said picking her up while luna picked up pip. "So that dream... care to talk about it?" I asked scoot who laughed nervously.

"What dream?" Scoots asked and I rolled my eyes.

"The one were me and luna save you guys and take you back to the others" I said and she blushed with embarrassment.

"I uh... no reason" Scoots said and I humed before booping her nose.

"Dont lie scoots why were you having that dream?" I asked again booping her nose again making her giggle.

"Alright alright enough with the booping... well the reason we were having that dream is because me and pip kinda... see both of you as, a mom and dad" Scoots said silent enough to were I couldn't hear it.

"One more time scootaloo me and steel couldnt hear" Luna asked and both the kids looked a bit uneasy almost like they were scared to say it. "Dont worry we wont be mad I promise" Luna said and I nodded.

"What I said was that me and pip see both of you as... a mom and dad" Scoots said making me and luna to go in a little shock.

"You see us as... your parents?" I asked them both and they both nodded slowly. "Wow I... I never thought of myself as... as a father before" I said and feeling a little lump form in my throat. "T-Thank you... thats the nicest thing I've heared in my whole life" I choked out a bit.

"I agree... I never considered, well being someones mother and to have these two say they see us as such... melts my heart" Luna said and hugged them both.

"Your not gonna say were just a waste of space and time?" Pip asked almost suprised.

"I couldnt bring myself to say it even if I was made to, your both amazing kids Im suprised not one family adopted you yet... They are missing out in the two coolest kids I met" I said joining hug, we stayed their for what seemed like years and I didnt want it to end but like every good thing it must end. "Thank you again kids... this totally brightened up my day" I said.

"Yes it mine as well, I think Im about to cry actually" Luna said I patted her head and brought her closer.

"Dont cry princess not for how we feel" Pip said hugging her to try and make her feel better but she had to let lose a couple.

"Alright... alright Im fine, Im fine sorry *ahem* hit a very emotional cord right their nothing to worry about" Luna said, I laughed a little but glad to see her feeling ok.

"Alright I think we should wake now it's past 11:00 already" I said putting scoots down and luna put pip down. "We'll see you guys when we get back for now stay out of trouble ya hear" I said messing up their manes.

"Yeah yeah we wont... maybe" Scoots said I booped her once more making her giggle again. "I said stop" She said I chuckled before standing at my full height.

"Alright little ones we will see you later" Luna said and the world started melting.

I felt myself shake a little from my left casuing me to stir awake and see luna nudging me slightly, she looked up at me with a small smile and rose out of bed. "C'mon its time for your meeting Im sure celestia is waiting along with twilight" Luna said, I nodded and got out of bed then stretched popping my limbs. I grabbed a new set of cloths and put on my jacket that I left here then placed my weapons on me.

"Alright I'll see you later luna dont go getting into trouble" I said and she rolled her eyes at me as I washed up and left the room making my way to the throne room.

As I walked I saw spike talking to a certian baby blue pony spike was a little shorter than cinder only by a few inches, they talked for a bit until they saw me next to them. "Oh uh steel... whats up man?" Spike asked me a bit nervous and I grew a small smile.

"Oh you know just headin to see twilight and celestia I see you met cinder" I said and spike nodded then brought me a few feet away from her as she was talking with a maid.

"Dude she's awesome I cant really find the words but I think I like her man, we have almost everything in common, we like comic books, we both like purple, we like to play the same games hell she even said she liked dragons better than stallions... only problem is Im sixteen and she's nineteen" Spike said a little down, I looked back up to cinder and see her blushing a little as the maid pointed to spike with a small grin, I chuckled and held out my hand to him.

"Alright Im gonna do this only once ya hear, I promised lily and manus never to do this but I'll make an exception" I said and spike looked confused. "Im going to use an ageing spell to make you eighteen but I must know if you are willing to do this" I said and spike grabbed my hand without hesitation.

"Dude you said theirs mares out their for me... I think I found her so you know what Im gonna go for it" Spike said and I laughed a little before surrounding our hands in my black aura.

"You wish I'll grant it... This is going to take four days five tops and you will feel pain last warning man" I asked him, Spike looked over to cinder who was waiting to talk to him some more. "Alright I got my answer but first" I said stoping my magic and letting go of spike before walking over to cinder.

"Whats up steel?" Cinder asked me.

"I got a little question cinder so listin carefully" I said and she nodded. "You see I got the purple and green friend who has a little crush on you do you think you'll give him a chance?" I asked her and she thought about it for a bit. "Just a yes or no"

"Well... if your friend is purple and green" cinder said and looked over to spike. "And if he likes comics, games and everything I like than... yeah I would" Cinder said winking to spike who turned red.

"All I needed to know... he should be here in four or five days so be ready for his visit alright" I said and cinder nodded, I walked back to spike and held out my hand like last time and just like before I had my black aura around our hands before it creeped all over him then zaped his entire body causing him to go a little dizzy. "Their its all done" I said making the aura vanish, I leaned over to spikes ear and whispered. "Have fun dude" I said making him go full red, I got back up and gave a thumbs up to cinder before running off to the throne room knowing Im late.

"Sooooo spike... wanna come read some comics with me?" Cinder asked walking over to him, spike nodded and cinder smiled happily before they both walked to the library.

"Ay sorry Im late helping spike with something, what did I..." I trailed off as I saw celestia next to twilight with green eyes and purple smoke coming out of it, I was about to attack but she noticed me and stoped her magic turning her eyes back to normal.

"Oh steel your late I was showing twilight the crystal empire but had to show her what umbra had done to it" Celestia said as twilight turned around staring at the small crystal in her hands.

"You want me to save an entier empire?" Twilight asked uneasy, she sounded unsure and also scared.

"I know your feeling scared right now twilight but you are the only one that can do this" Celestia said shifting her gaze to twilight then to me. "I am asking this one thing from you steel so please follow it" she said her tone turning serious.

"What do you want me to do?" I asked, 'Though your orders dont apply to me at all since I have more important matters' I thought to myself making sure celestia didnt hear it.

"I want you to not go to the crystal empire, in fact I will be taking your weapons" Celestia said grabbing lilys sword and my katana then made them go into the vault.

"Celestia you know as well as I do that twilight and the others might be..." I started and stoped as twilight didnt know how strong umbra was and I didnt want to scare her even more.

"I know what you are thinking steel but you must remember these are the ponies that helped seal many things away and even became your friends" Celestia said in a starnge tone at the end almost like she was suprised getting a curious look from me.

"What do yo mean by that?" I asked her and she just realized and tried to change the subject but I wouldn't let her. "Celestia what do you mean even became friends with me cause it sounds like you were suprised when I made friends with the others... got something to say celestia?" I asked her and she looked nervous but sighed in defeat.

"When we first met... I was hoping that nightmare moon would... kill you since I knew you werent a fox but something different, something that would have killed us all" Celestia said getting a glar out of me and shocked look from twilight. "Im sorry! I didnt know what else to do I thought when you reached your full power you were gonna kill us all and I wanted to have someone else kill you so I wouldn't" she said and I didnt know what to say anger nor livid could suffice to this feeling neither disappointed.

"Celestia how... how dare you!" I shouted at the alicorn princess and her ears flopped to her head. "I showed you kindness, I shared what I liked and dont like with you I thought you were my friend and yet... you thought I just stab you in the back for what shits and giggles nothing can suffice enough to show how Im feeling nothing... I trusted you and called you friend and your telling me you wanted me dead this whole time, what else have you been hiding celestia cause I know damn well your hiding more!" I shouted more and stomped my foot in anger cracking the ground.

"Steel please I-Im sorry but you looked like a threat you have to understand" Celestia said backing up a bit and noticed the cracks on the floor were my foot was.

"Understand?!... oh tia what you need to understand is that Im bustin my ass here helping twilight and my friends fight off all the evil that has plague this land and for what so twilight can send you a letter say 'he didnt kill anyone, he looks like he's getting stronger keep a close eye on him'" I said, before she could say anything else I felt something burn on my back it was excruciating but I held in the screams. "Im going whether you like it or not celestia" I said and she seemed to back up and the burning became even more unbearable. This was a long silence until my weapons were tossed back to me by luna and my armor I left at the library.

"Luna who gave you permission to-"

"I did now shut up, steel wants to help his friends no matter what look at the man he's practically risking everything just to go help them so I say let him and you dont have authority over him" Luna said shutting celestia up quick and I smiled before putting back on my weapons and then using my magic to put the armor on myself. "Alright your friends are all at the train station so you better hurry" Luna said, I nodded and grabbed twilight before teleporting out of their.

"You had no right to interfere with important bus-"

"Ah shove it sun butt, call me when steel gets back" Luna cut celestia off and teleported back to her room leaving a shocked celestia.

"What has steel done to you luna?"

We made it to the train station just in time to get abored and sit with everyone and there was nithing but silence during the trip. Twilight would take glances at me from time to time for some reason but I didnt care I did just yell at celestia for her bullshit which I was still pissed at.

"So mind filling us in twilight on what were dealing with here?" Dash asked twilight who jumped a little but calmed down.

"Yeah sorry... The princess has asked me and all of you to head to the lost crystal empire that was once sealed away from all of equis long ago by a powerfull leader named umbra even her power was enough to give celestia and luna a bit of trouble but in the end umbra was forced to retreat only she took the empire with her" Twilight said and fluttershy started shaking at this.

"I bet we can take her, we handled worse before and Im sure steel can beat her" Mint said full of confidence but even I was feeling a little doubt that I could beat such a powerful pony.

"Yeah... I can totally beat her" I said trying to play off my doubt luckily it worked and the others didnt press on. After all the awkward silence was gone everyone started talking to one another leaving me in my thoughts and wondering how Im gonna beat someone who is the third strongest and the most smartest being known to any kind. I hadn't noticed I was growling a little as I felt the burning come back to me, but like before held it in not wanting to cause a scene. "I can beat her" I said silently then closed my eyes to take a quick nap.

(Two hours later)

I felt the train stop with a soft jolt causing me to slowly open my eyes and see the others putting on snow gear. I had gottin up and straightened out my cloth armor before we all headed to the door, I reached for the handle and slamed it open letting a freezing cold breeze to rush in making the others shiver violently but to me I felt fine.

"Alright we should be metting gleaming here any minute so she can escort us to the empire!" Twilight said and we waited outside in the cold. Literally every mare came over to me and used me as a heater, first it was twilight, then rarity and rainbow, fluttershy, pinkie, trixie, vanilla, chocolate and gilda I gave annoyed sigh and just decided to ride it out though half of them were blushing I didnt pay any mind.

"This is taking fuckin forever, Im gonna try something" I said then used my Eagle vision to see past the snow, thats when I saw a dark figure approaching. I pushed the girls off me and took out my stardust sword then readied myself. "Who's their?" I called to the figure as it made its way to us, it was wrapped up in dark warm cloths with a mask to help see through the snow.

"Twily!" Gleaming called out taking off her mask, the sisters ran to eachother and hugged for a few seconds before parting. "Its good to see you guys... but we can talk later we gotta head to the empire" Gleaming said and almost sounded like she was scared.

"But first I want to the know the situation" Twilight asked and gleaming looked at the dark clouded sky.

"Alright I'll make it sweet and simple, umbra has retured and even more powerful its takin every ounce of magic cadence has to ward off the evil empress and right now were trying to find a way to stop and defeat umbra but so far nothing has come up... hurry we must leave, their are things at night even nightmare moon would be scared of" Gleaming said just then we all heared a long loud roar.

"Was that one of the things?" Fluttershy asked looking right about to faint, then were heared it again except louder.

"Run!" Gleaming shouted then broke out into a full on sprint with the rest of us behind her, the snow made it hard to see but gleaming used her horn to use as a beacon for us to follow. We rn for what felt like hours not stoping at all, whatever made that roar is chasing after us more specifically.

Me...

I looked behind my shoulder to only see spike lagging behind along with rarity who was continuously yelling at him not to drop her bags, I sighed a bit then slowed down to match spikes speed which was jogging speed.

"Rarity their is a evil empress chasing us and your worried about your damn bags!" I yelled at the mare who glared at me with killing intent but I gave one back.

"I am not setting one foot if my bags get dropped to the floor and theurs nothing you or an evil empress can do to make me!" Rarity screamed at me, Thats when I saw black smoke aproaching us from behind.

"Stop bein a little foal and but some more or for god sakes make them, you know what!" I yelled back then grabbed the bags off of spike and threw them at the black some casuing it to get a little side tracked. Rarity stoped dead in her tracks and stood their not moving, I growled at the whinny mare before slinging her over my shoulder along with spike then sprinted back to the others. "Oi mint carry your day marefriend for fuck sake!" I said tossing rarity to him to which he caught her and I put down spike.

"Were almost their keep on going!" Gleaming called out and we saw a giant blue dome. Twilight was the first to get in then coal, trixie, gilda, the assassin sisters,spike, greenie and jack, rainbow, aj, mint and rarity, pinkie, and strings. The only ones left were me, fluttershy and gleaming just as fluttersht was about to make it through black tendrils wrapped around her arms and legs then started dragging her away.

"Someone help!" Fluttershy screamed in fright, strings ran out and was going straight to fluttershy but another tendril tossed him back into the dome. Gleaming was shooting magic blasts out of her horn at the tendrils but was blasted back by a red magic shot hitting her right on the horn before being tossed through the dome as well.

"Hang on fluttershy Im coming!" I yelled and ran forward blades drawn the tendrils tried to peirce through me but I dodged and cut them down if the got close to me, more and more came making it harder and harder to reach fluttershy and I know if those things even touch me its game over.

"Steel behind you!" Fluttershy screamed to me, I quickly turned and cut down the tendril sneaking up on me. I pushed through the remaining and was right their to grabbing fluttershy my hand stretched out to grab her's just two inches from eachother until.

CRACK... CRUSH

I felt something tug in my left arm, the side of my chest and just above my heart. A look of horror fell onto fluttershy's face and tears welled up in her eyes, I wasnt falling to the ground yet my body felt as heavy as a rock. I forced myself to look at my left arm and gasped in horror a black tendrils had gone right through the my arm coating it in blood the magic barrier was wrapped around the slender appendage full of cracks. I looked at the rest of my body seeing the same thing.

It was growing more difficult to breath and I felt my lungs burning, my head spinning, and everything growing numb. I started violently coughed up blood making it splatter on the pure white snow and even some on fluttershy, the tendrils yanked themselves out of me letting me fall to the floor face first into my own blood. I felt so much pain coursing through my body but couldn't even let out a scream of agony, the wounds oozed out blood painting the snow red and letting me see only the red snow, their was a faint scream coming from above my almost lifeless body. I painfully moved my head and looked up to see fluttershy being tossed through the dome and the black smoke retreating back to where ever it came from the world was turning black and I felt my body start to get cold.

'This is death huh... its so lonely and dark' I thought to myself, I couldnt move nor did I want to from the fear of the pain coming back. This was my second time coming in contact with death and so far I hated it, I dont want to be alone again I dont want to see the darkness like before, "I-If... their... is s-someone out their... please......... help me" I begged silently not really getting my hopes up I knew my life was about to end here but I atleast tried as much as I could, "Goodbye everyone... Im sorry " I choked out before closing my eyes and going unconscious.

The blizzard raged on covering most of my body in snow but still being soaked in my blood, but their was a crunch of snow coming closer and closer to my unconscious body. The frost might sniffed my body for a few not knowing if I was dead of alive until he nudged me making me groan, hearing this the beast picked me up and began running through the blizzard to some unknown area.

I sprang up in a cold sweat but hissed at the stinging pain shooting across my body, I panted heavily but settled down after a few minutes but thats when I notcied one thing. "I'm... alive" I said, I looked around my body only to see myself in my boxers and my chest and arm covered in tight badages.

"Ah younge angel your awake" I heared a feminine voice say almost like gleamings but a little bit deeper. I turned to see who spoke but did a small double take as I saw a human woman staring at me from across the fire. Her hair was long and the color was snow white, her skin was flawless and had looked like it was also snow, her chest was small but her body was slim and toned, I saw one eye glowing burning purple and the other was burning red she looked about my age or cinders age at most and she wore regular white clothing made out of fur from some animal, all in all she was beautiful. "Are you going to speak or just stare at mem" the woman asked snapping me out of my thoughts.

"Oh sorry" I said and painfully sitting up and leaning on a wall to fully face her, I noticed that were inside some sort of cave but underneath me was an old mattress meaning this place was her home. "My names steel fox... can you tell me what your name is?" I asked the woman.

"My name is frost and that is all I will say younge angel you should be thankful I patched you up, if papa hadn't been their hunting for food he wouldnt have found you and you'd be dead from all the blood that was lost" Frost said in a harsh tone making me flinch a little.

"Sorry I asked... you said your father found me, where is he I'd like to thank him" I said she was about to speak again but was cut off by a long howl echoing from down farther into the cave followed by heavy footsteps. They grew closer and closer until I saw a figure and my eyes widen seeing the beast itself.

"Papa your awake the young angel just woke up as well" Frost said getting up and walking over to the giant frost might and hugged him. It stared at me with pure white eyes letting me know it was blind but that doesn't mean it cant see through his nose and ears, the frost might patted frost on her head then gently pushed her away before turning to me.

"Adolescens tandem excitatus es Angelus autem est tanta temporis fieri (you have awakened at last Young Angel there is so much to be done but there is so little time) "the beast said in a language even I didnt know what it was.

"Papa said 'you have awakened at last Young Angel there is so much to be done but there is so little time'" frost said in her harsh tone again but was nudged by her 'papa'. "What he shpuld be great full without you he wouldn't have lived to see the next day" frost said and that reminded me.

"Thanks for reminding me frost hold up" I said getting up slowly and kneeled before the beast and bowed my head. "Grazie per averti aiutato nel mio tempo più grave (thank you for helping me in my most grave time)" I said and the beast bowed to me as well out of respect. "Oh man my everything hurts... what happened to me?" I asked.

"Well you almost punctured in the heart by a few inches, almost died of blood loss and your armor had been torn to pieces" Frost said showing me only a my boots and pants still intact.

"Well thats gonna be a hard explanation to faust" I said and the frost mights ears perked up to this.

"tu nosti de Faust (you know of faust)" the frost might asked me.

"He asked if 'you know of faust'" frost said and I nodded, thats when the frost might ran back farther in the cave leaving both me and frost in confusion. "Thats strange papa has never ran that fast before I wonder what's wrong?"

"Hmm, could be anything a weapon, clothing, potion, scroll" I said and not even a few seconds later the frost might came back holding A helmet. It looked like it was made from bones of a wolf and the dreadlocks had some sort of pelt on it it looked so badass though, the forst might handed me the helmet but frost yanked it out of my hands.

"Papa he is not worth of such a thing, this-this is something not even mama would approve of!" Frost shouted keeping the helmet close to her, I was going to say something but he stoped me before walkijg to his daughter.

"O vos Angeli mittantur sanctissimum adulescentem haberes glacies ne artificium totius populi (your mama would have let the young angel hold the most sacred artifact in the entire frost might tribes)" the frost might said and frost stared at him with pleading eyes but all he did was hold out his hand, frost looked at me then to her father before slowly handing back the helmet to him. The frost might hugged his daughter before walking back to me giving me the helmet back.

"What... does it do?" I asked them but frost pointed to her head.

"Put it on and you'll see" Frost said and I looked at the helmet before sliding it on and waited, that burning sensation came back but this time it was stronger than the other times. I felt so much pain coursing through my body causing me to fall to my knee's and scream at that pain, I felt like I would die from this kind of pain but I kept trying my hardest to push through. I gritted my teeth and clenched my fists before slowly getting back to my feet holding in the screams of agony, I just grunted and panted heavily feelijg this pain and holding in my pain.

Ths frost might and frost stared at me in shock, they never met anyone with enough power to withstand this much pain. With one final scream of agony I felt the burning from my back push out and wind rushed past all of us making the fire go out but the room was still lit up but with a blue flame.

"Factum est (it is done)" Frost might said seeing the large Flaming wings. The dark and light blue feathers shined in the blue fire and made it dance lightly, the wings reached down to my legs and as long as fausts wings maybe just a tad more. I stared at the wings intently in awe at what just came out of me, the wings were beautiful and when I touched them they were smooth to the touch dare I say smoother than lunas feathers.

"This... is amazing" I said still in awe, frost came over and removed the helmet from my head making the flames go out and leaving just the dark and light blue feathers. Frost might started a new fire and we sat around in silence until frost broke the ice.

"So what now papa?" Frost asked him to which the frost might stood up at his full height then motioned for me to come forward. I did and he nudged frost next to me a little to close actually, "Papa what are thinking?" She asked her father who said nothing.

"Bite him" He said in clear english shocking both me and frost, his voice was so deep and smooth like honey. "Frost I need you to bite him only then will he learn what ge needs" frost might said and frost looked at me then her father then back to me with a red face. "Do not be embarrassed my little girl, all frost mights do this to new borns and those who come of age so please I'll even give you two some privacy" He said with a grin before walking farther into the cave.

"W-Wait p-papa... uh ok this is... I never really done this to anyone before" Frost said going even more red.

"Well its just a bite right so nothing to bad about that" I said but she shifted in place and looked at me shyly. "What?"

"U-um... well when a frost might bite's you... that means your... their mate or child" Frost said and I jumped back a bit hearing this and grew my own blush.

"O-oh... um so I guess its pretty... sacred huh" I said and frost nodded hidding her face behind her hair. It was kinda cute the way she acted shy about this it kinda reminded me of. "OH MY GOD MY FRIENDS!" I screamed just now remembering why Im here, I have to get to the crystal empire before umbra does.

"Young angel what is wrong?" Frost might asked me rushing over.

"I gotta go to the crystal empire an evil being is going to attack that place and most likely will kill them all" I said and put on my pants and boots, I grabbed my sword then grabbed the helmet. I was about to run off but the frost might stoped me. "Please I need to get back to them Im the only one who can help them" I said.

"I understand but you first need to calm yourself think before you act" Frost might said and turned me back to frost. "Once she has bitten you, only then will you be able to defeat umbra"

"How can a bite help me?" I asked him but he pushed me forward to frost who stared at me still blushing. "Alright... Im going to trust you two so bite me frost" I said and she slowly moved my head to the side and brought her mouth to my neck then lightly bit down, she did this for a few seconds before something sharp peirce through my neck making me grunt at the sting but I started seeing images all them passing by me one after another only having frost mights and their history run through my head, then some pieces of their fighting abilities then it all came to a stop on one small symbols. It looked like a man with wings, crazy hair and had bright blue eyes. It lasted for a few seconds before vanishing and I was back in the cave gaving out short rapid breaths and falling against the wall, that was something else something I never thought existed yet I saw all of it.

"Now you may go fight for your friends young angel, we shall accompany you to the empire frost grab our weapons we must help" Frost might said and frost was ahead of him as she handed him a spear and sheild as she held a short sword and dagger. We all ran out the cave and had the frost might lead the way.

"Hold on guys I'm on my way"

"Oh poor poor princess you tried oh so hard yet you failed" Umbra said laughing as she sat on her throne with a smile that showed her victory, everyone but twilight and spike had gottin captured and chained to the floor by umbra after she broke the barrier and raided the place with a shadow army letting them possess the crystal ponies.

"You... are a monster" Cadence said weakly as she saw her subjects rampage across the empire.

"Oh hush you this is simply for shits and giggles if I wanted I could have killed you by now and make your mare friend my bitch, but Im feeling a little kind hearted because of my new found toys I get to play with" Umbra said staring at the everyone to which they glared at her. "Oh whats wrong dont like being called toys how about slaves then that sounds wonderful actually"

"You cant get away with this!" Rainbow shouted and screamed at the alicorn empress who just laughed even more.

"Oh but I already have little rainbow dash, you see by getting rid of your most powerful in your group I was able to stroll right on in, send in my shadow army and come in here to have a bit of fun" Umbra said getting up and yanking rainbow by her mane to face her. "You here that dashie... its you licking me dry in the next hour or so" She said and tossed her back to the ground. "Oh how I must thank that fool for dieing so easily but I cant go beyond the gates or I'll be trapped their... oh well"

"What do you mean... your talking about steel arent you?!" Vanilla asked her anger reaching its limit.

"By strongest in your group who the fuck did you think I meant, god your all morons cant stand that" Umbra said in frustration before calming down. "Yeah I killed him, I did it by taking your shy friend as a hostage then right as he was going to grab her I pierced his most vital areas the girl can tell you the rest" She said and they turned to flutterhsy who was cry her eyes out and nodded.

"You dirty bitch... he was our friend, and you just had the nerve to take him away If I wasn't in these binds I'd kill you myself!" Jack screamed at umbra who rolled her eyes and sat back in her throne.

"Be as macho as you want their is nothing you can do to stop me jacka'boy so better get comfy for me having my fun with your marefriend" Umbra said giggling darkly before stoping and shot to her feet. "No... this cant be right I know I killed him so how?" Umbra said to herself and walked over to a window then jumped back as she saw me floating with my wings out, helmet on and swords out. I kicked the glass making it shatter and wemt through the opening landing with a thud on the floor, I stared at umbra through the helmet keeping her from moving as the frost might and frost got through the window.

"You know some help would be nice!" Frost yelled at me but I ignored her as I only had my attention to umbra. I grolwed at the empress who snorted softly and grabbed her jagged sword by her throne and slung it across her shoulder.

"So the human lives huh and it seems you gained quite alot of strength somehow... seems their is a frost might that I left by mistake and... a human woman such a weird thing to see but then again Im staring at a man that should be dead" Umbra said then blocked a sword strike from me. "Quick to the trigger huh fine guess I could use a warm up" She said and kicked me back a few feet letting myself get some breathing space.

"If we fighting to the death at least know your were you stand and hail to your king" I said quickly taking out my phone then pressed Play. We both shot to eachother and sent strong attacks making sparks fly off the strikes before sending one after another each one growing my dense. She suddenly passed behind me and tried to strike my back but I spun my katana in my hand and deflected it before spin kicking her in the chest sending her to the wall but was quickly gut punched hard by her and kicked to a window cracking it. "Oh thats gonna leave a mark... sorry cadence I probably fix that" I said charging at umbra again entering a power struggle.

While I was fighting frost and her father somehow snuck their eay to the others. "Were here to help" Frost's father said scaring the entire group making him sigh and he nudged his daughter.

"Papa and I are going to help you get free so please dont be afraid of him" Frost said and had her dad cut the chains wrapped around gleaming who was to weak to even stand, then it was twilight, trixie, gilda, the sisters, rainbow, aj, coal, greenie, jack, mint, strings, fluttershy and pinkie all fell to the floor cowering at the sheer hieght of the frost might. "Papa is not going to hurt you"

"How do you know that?!" Rainbow asked frost who face palmed.

"Because he was the one who found the young angel laying in the snow" frost said and they all turned to him. But they didnt stare to long as they saw me going flying passed them and crashing into a wall with cuts and scraps all over me umbra was just the same as well even a some ripped clothing.

"That all you got?" I asked breaking myself out the wall and popping my back before running right at umbra with no swords in hand and tossing my helmet off, seeing this she decided to play along and tissed her jagged sword and we send hard punches some connecting together and some causing a short numbing to come across us.

We dodged, kicked, punched, elbowed and tossed eachother like ragg dolls but I seemed to be losing my injuries have only healed enough to withstand me walking and running but fighting at half full strength thatbwas pushing my limits. But I couldn't give up I had to keep fighting she was going to enslave everyone and kill luna along with my friends thats something I cant allow, "Duck now then hit her side!" The frost might shouted to me, taking his advice I ducked under one of her attacks then punched her side hard casuing her to scream and stagger back. "Spin around then elbow the use full palm!" He ordered again and I swiftly spun around her attack then hit her back full force with the palm of my hand knocking her to the ground with a hard thud.

"Whoa how did I-"

"When my daughter bit you she gave parts of frost might fighting style all you have to do now is use them!" The frost might said I grinned and gave a thumbs up.

"Thanks man!" I said and bent back as umbra was about to punch me in the face, I reached the floor with my hands then used all my force to backflip kick to her chin then I jumped back up to my feet and threw a hard fist to her stomach making the air burst out of her and had her gasping and wheezing for air.

"You arrogant little shit!" Umbra yelled getting back up then a black like aura surrounded her then she just vanished into thin air. I frantically look for her but I couldnt find her, thats when I felt a sharp and painfully hit tto the head, then my leg and finally my chest sending me flying away leaving skids on the ground I continuously look again but I just felt fast and hard attacks coming from somewhere. "Whats the matter boy cant see me, because I can see you" umbra said and something hard hit my back making me lose my balance a bit then I felt a hard kick straight on my chest sending me flying to window almost shattering it.

"Ang-Steel focus you might be able to see her but that just means your other senses have heightened use them instead of your eyes" Frost might said and It was worth a shot, I closed my eyes and began focusing using my ears and nose to try to determine where umbra is. Thats when I heared the tiniest of cracks and footsteps coming right to me, when I felt something about to hit me directly in my face I felt the force in the attack without it hitting me causing me to dodge and strike in that direction earning a loud groan of pain.

"H-how?!" Umbra asked spitting up blood as she staggered back then holding her chest and panting, the aura around her went away and I saw her again. "How did you get this strong no better question is how your alive with this much strength!"

"I dont know myself umbra, you see I've noticed something about my strength and how un-natural it is when I defeated discord he injured me pretty bad but in just a week I was up and about and for some reason I felt stronger. There was also a time were I couldn't control my emotions and I went on a full genocide against a family of bastards, the weirdest part my power grew ten times more after I let them lose its like I have some sort of hiddin power deep inside of me that wants to break free" I said staring at her and she looked at me like I'd gone crazy, but she had a thought and after she been humiliated she wanted to go all out.

"So you grow stronger everytime you get injured or when you emotions run wild... I want to see" Umbra said and without warning tackled me out of a window. Everyone screamed my name as I started free falling with umbra, we threw wild swings at eachother eachone landing on their mark and hirting like hell, the ground came to veiw and just before we hit it I snapped open my wings stopping us just a few feet from the ground.

"You crazy bitch" I said then was grabbed again and thrown at the castle full force letting me go right through it. I groaned and pushed myself back to my feet a little dizzy but I barely had time to recover as I was grabbed again and was now being used a ragg doll as she slamed me to the ground over and over again each one hurting more than the last u til she threw me full force into the snowy tundra.

"Show me what you got little human, I want to see this power show me I want to go all out!" Umbra yelled laughing like a mad man and continued her devastating attacks. I began throwing my own attacks and blocking hers as much as possible, but when her fist connected with my arm it stung and almost made it numb. As she continued to try and break open the seal in me the others had ran out riding on the frost mights back until they reached the battle but only saw craters being made as each attack became denser and more powerful than the last.

"This... this is unbelievable" Trixie said staring in awe as where the others but the frist might was smiling.

"He is the chosen we frost mights spoke of in Legend it is said that a man with only the purest of hearts, the skill of many, and protector of life will come and become the strongest the world of equis has ever seen... even stronger than faust and stardust themselves" Frost might said getting curious looks from the others. "Have you noticed frost... he's holding back"

"What your kidding theirs no way steel is holdin back I mean do ye feel those shock waves!" Strings said but the frost might held out his hand.

"Papa is right... he's not at his full strength he's being held back by the fear of losing someone precious to him and the fear that his power will consume him" Frost said and they everyone stared back at the fight seeing me and umbra full of scraps, snow, and blood on our body's we both had entered another power struggle but this time it was so intense small jolts of lighting bounced off our body's, a purple and gold flame like aura came off of us and looked like they were battling eachother just like us.

"Your good for a monkey to be taking on 70 percent of my power maybe I should up the ante" Umhra said before letting out a powerfull scream and her strength doubled and a small crater formed under us. I gritted my teeth and also let out a scream raising my power to match hers, she had grown a large smirk and gained a small plan in her psychotic head. "You know we shouldn't leave our friends only doing nothing how about we let them have some fun huh?" Umbra said then kicked me away, I was going to stop her but she already made six shadow figures and sent them to my friends.

"No call them back dont get them involved with this!" I shouted at umbra who didnt listin and we watched my friends we fighting off the shadow figures but ultimately being beaten to a pulp. Jack and greenie tried to take on two at once but found them selves on the ground being kicked over and over again in the gut hard, three of them surrounded gilda, trixie, and rainbow and they barely were able to fight back but still getting beat on hard, and the last one was going head to head with assassin sisters and spike they were the only ones outting up a fair fight. Frost, her father, mint, strings and coal had moved fluttershy, rarity, aj and stayed their to protect them. I started to run over to help but umbra got infront of me and before I could react she elbowed me in the stomach stunning me and making me lose my breath, I fell to the ground and coughed up blood and panted heavily.

"Oh dont worry they wont kill them unless I order them to but I wont let you interfere with this, I want your full power so the best way is to beat your friends to a bloody pulp" Umbra said laughing to herself a bit, I growled at her and got to my feet. I had to watch my friends get beatin all because I couldn't bring myself to go full power.

"Stop this umbra I-I lied about the hiddin power this is everything I have so stop it!" Yelled at her then heared a throat ripping scream from greenie as one of the shadow beings broke his arm and hand, umbra giggled to herself then felt a sudden power change from me but it was just a small jolt.

"Thats it let it all out steel... alright my pets do what you want with them" umbra said and they started beat on them even harder.

"I said stop it umbra!" I screamed at her at the top of my lungs and I raised my power fully she looked at me with an amused face.

"Thats it... thats really all your power and here I thought youd make me shiver in my shoes, oh what a waste of ti-" she stopped herself as she saw the frist might just barely inches away from her ready to impale her to which he did but only in the arm. "Oh you filthy mutt!" She screamed at him then charged her hand full of ki then sent it right through his body their was only silence as the shadow figures stoped their assault and the others saw the frost might be blown back to frost with a large hole in his chest.

"PAPA!" Frost screamed in horror as she ran over to her now dieing father, tears fell from her eyes as she reached him and gasped seeing the hole. "Papa your gonna be fine w-we can have the others heal you... you just have to hold on"

"F-frost... Do not cry" he said lifting his massive hand to her cheek and wipping the tears away. "I knew... my time was coming to an end... so please dont cry" he said I stared at the scene and felt almost every nerve strat to sever.

"Papa please don't say that you cant leave, you can't leave me" Frost cried more but the frist might only smiled.

"Im sorry my child... but maybe now... I can finally see your mother once more and thank her for letting me take care of you... I have one thing to say... to steel" The frost might said and turned to me but coughed up alot of blood and his eyes became clear and I saw his dark blue eyes stare at my black eyes. "Steel let it go. It is not a sin to fight for the right cause. There are ones that must be killed... umbra is such a being. I know how you are steel. You are gentle, you do not like to hurt. I know because I too have learned these feelings over many years of raising frost. but it is because you cherish life, that you must protect it." The frost might said and smiled. "Please protect... everyone all you have to do is let it all go" He said.

"Oh please like a beast like you can cherish life you were givin that human baby by her dieing mother so you have no room to talk animal" Umbra said walking over him and frost. Frost tried to protect him but was knocked unconscious by a hard back hand from umbra.

"My name is not animal my name bellator the once proud king of the frost... mights" Bellator said before taking his final breath and dieing by the hands of umbra.

"Yet another being you could have saved but dont feel to bad he died as he lived... a bastard" Umbra said and thats when I lost it, the very rational part of my brain went away and I wanted to make her suffer. The top part of my hair rose up slowly and stayed their leaving a bang hanging down I rose to my feet keeping my expression of shock and I felt the ground shake violently, this grabbed Umbra's attention and everyone else's. "What the hell?"

'Steel... you ok man?" Brigid asked a bit scared now as she got no response, the bird of sanity and rationality flew through my head then was shot.

'I feel it slipping... I can't-I wont watch this!' I screamed in my head scaring brigid, my hair started to flash gold a but and my eyes flash crystal blue. Umbra saw this and was watching fascination until she felt killing intent radiate off me. "I WONT WATCH THIS ANYMORE!!!" I screamed at tye top of my lungs and the gold flame aura surrounded me, my hair turned gold and my eyes a fire crystal blue color full of rage my muscles also grew a bit bigger and I felt so much power in me it was intoxicating. Electricity roamed around my body as the gold aura roared furiously, I had nothing but kill running through my head thats when I felt pain run through it.

'Steel you gotta calm down!" Brigid yelled.

"The time for being calm is over now get the hell out of my head!" I screamed and shoved my hand in my chest but it didnt go into my body it fazed through, I reached in more and felt a hand I grabbed said hand began pulling out brigid no matter how much it hurt. "Get out of me now!" I roared out until I finally yanked her entire body out me, everyine stared at me in shock as I held a unconscious brigid in hand until I tossed her away and brought my gaze to the shadow figures. "You die first" I said vanishing then appearing at the ones with greenie and jack, I grabbed one by the neck then swung my arm that looked like it wouldn't hurt but it tore off the bastards head scaring my friends, the one Im choking seemed to be begging for his life but I could care less and crushed his throat and tossed him to his dead friend.

I shifted my gaze to the rest and saw they were running at me ready to slice me up. The poor fools. I jumped back so they miss greenie and jack and flew right to them as they did then slaughter every last one of them just by using one fist. "S-steel... mate is that you?" Greenie asked me and shook as my eyes right back into his.

"Get everyone and leave greenie... now" I said feeling some rational parts come back.

"But we cant just-"

"DO AS I SAY NOW BEFORE I LOSE WHATEVER RATIONALITY I HAVE LEFT!" I roared at him and both jack and greenie shot to their feet and helped everyone up even brigid, I shot a glare at umbra and she smiled.

"Oh how cute you really think I'd let you just walk away like that oh you are dead wrong" Umbra said raising her hand and charging up her ki, I teleported infront of her and grabbed her hand in a death grip making it crack.

"You will die umbra or your gonna have to kill me to get to them" I growled at her and kneed her in gut without warning before kicking her up in the sky then flying and smashing my elbow on her back shooting her right back to the ground. "You are the only cannot be forgivin for your crimes" I said kicking her back to her feet and grabbing her by the hair. "You kill him out of cold blood you heartless bitch" I said then felt her send a powerfull punch to my face that turned it to the right she grinned at the free shot but it faded as I turned back to her with nothing but cold eyes. "Is that all you got umbra Im disappointed" I said jabbing her a few times then spun her on her back and slamed her down on my knee making her scream in pain. I let her go and she instant flew back trying her best to get as much distance as possible, when she felt like she was at a safe distance of 100 feet she stared at me with what I think was fear while I held a blank expression.

"W-What the hell are you?!" Umbra asked her voice shaking a bit, 'Is this what fear is?'. I said nothing and began to slow walk over to her and stared her dead in the eyes.

"C'mon umbra go full power you said you were going 75 percent so use all of it" I said, she stared at me shaking in her shoes. "Whats wrong isn't this what you wanted my full power?" I asked and stoped walking as I was right infront of her, she couldn't even make a sentence only small whimper's I just held my expression and she seemed to shrink even more. Then I heared a dripping noise I looked down to the floor and saw a yellow puddle under her legs, I looked back to her and looked shocked to see her almost about ready to cry in fear. "Why are you crying and why did you piss yourself, bring out your full power now!" I demanded but she fell to the ground and started crying out of fear. "Uh... are you... crying?" I asked her and she scooted back.

"N-No... Im not crying..." Umbra said in a shaky voice.

"What the fuck this just went into a complete 180 what happened to your Im gonna kill everyone tone huh answer me!" I yelled at her again and she quickly nodded.

"I-I didnt want it to escalate this far, I didnt want to kill bellator just injure him but I got a bit mad when he stabbed my arm and went over board Im sorry... I hate to kill ever since I separated from diamond heart her kindness rubbed off on me and I was just gonna replace celestia and luna but not kill them" Umbra said I couldnt tell if she was lieing or not.

"Aj is she lieing?" I asked her and she approach cautiously and had umbra tell her story again.

"She's... telling the truth" Aj said and I stared at umbra completely disappointed.

"Look Im sorry truly I am and I said that stuff just act cool this isnt even my real form" Umbra said and she turned bright red before becoming a little smaller and and her hair becoming shorter. She looked like a teenager maybe about fourteen. "Look I can heal and bring back bellator just dont hurt me anymore" Umbra said and I was just at a loss for words.

"I cant believe this I became this poweful being just because some stupid kid trying to act cool, for the love of god and I really wanted to use this power as well damn it!" I said groaning and feeling unsatisfied. "Alright lets go heal bellator" I said picking her up and healing her completely befor dragging her to bellator's body and she quickly went to work on reviving him.

"Steel what happened to all the fightin and stuff?" Greenie asked as they all came over even twilight who was holding a blue heart.

"Ok this is going to sound very very stupid but... this is umbra" I said turning to the teenaged alicorn reviving bellator.

"Umbra!" We heared a a voice say from twilight but this was to high for her voice. "Uh who ever is holding me can you please release me?" The heart said and twilight shrieked letting it go but I caught it before it fell to the snow.

"Steel your hair and this energy what happened?" Twilight asked not really staring at my hair or the aura just my exposed chest.

"A little girl pissed me off" I said glaring at umbra who was still crying a bit in fear.

"Oh... I see" twilight said looking at little umbra, who had finally finished making the new organs for bellator and closed his chest up leaving a patch without fur, not even seconds later he shot up gasping for air then finally caught it then looked around.

"What... happened?" Bellator asked then remembered. "Did steel defeat umbra where is he?" Belmator asked. "Wheres my daughter?"

"Papa?" Frost asked coming into consciousness and seeing her father, she sorang up and was by him in seconds hugging and crying her eyes out. "Please dont leave again" she cried.

"I wont Im sorry I made you worry... but what happened was litteraly at the gates for four hours" Bellator said then finally saw me. "Ah I see... you have ascended so that means umbra is gone?"

"Not quite" I said then pointed to little umbra who waved nervously at him.

"Your kidding... right?" He asked and I shook my head. "A child... killed me"

"Let me tell you the story" I said and gave him a run down of what happened making him and frost glare at the her.

"Stop glaring at her she didnt mean it" the heart said which reminds me.

"Hey how do I release you?" I asked.

"Oh just tap the middle of it then it should let me leave" Diamond said and I did as told, I lightly tapped the middle and large crack went right down the middle and she screamed.

"Oh my god im so-"

"Got ya" diamond said and black smoke came out of the heart and formed into another alicorn mare that looked juster picutre I saw she was even wearing a tiara.

"I suddenly feel like punching you but I'll refrain... so this was a disappointment I was this close to killing umbra and then she turned out to be a teenager trying to act cool what disappointment your sisters will be furious as well do you know how worried they were they even though a rost kight had turned you into this!" I said as umbra and diamonds ears flopped to their heads in shame, I dropping the heart to the floor then felt the pain of the after math. "But... you give one helluva punch I'll say that"

"Child what you did is irresponsible and the utmost dangerous game you played, you could have been killed you should be ashamed of yourself making such comments and hurting other ponies only because you wanted to act cool" Bellator said scolding the teenaged alicorn.

"Alright we can scold her when I wake up sound good? Good, goodnight" I said and passed out with my hair going back to normal and the aura vanishing.

"C'mon lets get him back the hospital... this is gonna be one confusing ending for a chapter" Pinkie said confusing them. "Oops sorry ignore that anyways lets go!" Pinkie said again before they all just shrugged and picked me up before walking back to the crystal empire. "What a weird ending"

"Ending for what?!"
