Fifth Day

The next day he woke up and did his usual. He washed up, he greeted the four girls in his house and made breakfast for them. He did not want to work on the Ninth Metal as he currently don't have any way to reshape them. He left his house and walked towards Sugar Cube Corner to get something sweet to eat. After walking for a while, he arrived at the bakery but stopped at what the building looked like. He even rubbed his eyes, thinking that his eyes were playing tricks on him. He saw that is looked more like a ginger bread house than a bakery.

Asura stared at the ginger bread house for a minute then shook his head. He reminded himself that he was in a world of magic, so having a house look like edible delicacy must be normal here. He walked into the building and saw that Pinkie Pie was at the counter.

She looked at him with a huge smile and waved at him, "Hi Asura! Welcome to Sugar Cube Corner where all the sweet and delicious things are made! So what can I get you?"

Asura smiled and said, "Hello Pinkie. Can you get me a chocolate milkshake and 4 different flavor cupcakes?"

Pinkie nodded and said, "One chocolate milkshake and 4 cupcakes with different flavors coming right up. Why don't you sit at the chair while you wait for your order?"

Asura nodded and went to sit on the chair and waited for his food. He looked around the bakery and saw other ponies sitting at different tables and eating and talking with each other. He let out a relaxed sight.

After 3 minutes, Pinkie came with his order and put it on his table. She said, "Here is your order Asura."

Asura looked at his food and said, "Pinkie. Why don't you eat with me for a while."

Pinkie nodded and said, "Sure Asura." She looked back at the counter and said, "Ms Cake! I will be taking a short brake Okay!"

A voice came from behind the Counter, "Okay Pinkie!"

She then sat beside Asura and started to eat one of the cupcakes. Asura also eat one and savor its sweet flavor. While he was eating his, Pinkie swallowed her first cupcake and then started to eat another one. When Asura finished eating his cupcake, he saw that there was only one cupcake on the table. He smiled and gave the last cupcake to Pinkie.

He said, "Here you go Pinkie. You can eat this one too."

Pinkie had a huge smile and said, "Thanks Asura!" She ate the cupcake in one big bite which surprised him but then smiled.

He asked her, "Want to have some of my milkshake?"

Pinkie nodded ans said, "Sure Asura. I want to drink something that will wash my throat from all the yummy cupcakes I eaten."

Asura then gave her his milkshake. Pinkie took his milkshake but then though and said, "Why don't we drink it together Asura."

Asura blinked and said, "How can we drink from one glass Pinkie?"

Pinkie smiled and pulled out two straws in the shape of hearts from .... somewhere. She put the straws in the glass, one facing her and one facing him.

She said, "Now, lets drink together."

Asura was again stunned at her action. Where did that straw can from. Is she able to use magic? He shook his head and started to drink his milkshake with her. They both enjoyed it very much. After drinking their milkshake, Pinkie stand from her chair and sit on Asura's lap and hugged him.

Asura was surprised by this and hugged her well. He asked her, "What's the matter Pinkie? Something on your mind?"

Pinkie nuzzled her muzzle into his chest and said, "Just thinking what an amazing super duper awesome kind stallion you are and I was right to become a part of your herd."

Asura smiled and said, "Thank you Pinkie. I am happy too that someone like you are in my herd."

Pinkie said, "I mean that you are probably the first one to understand my super speedy talk. You are super kind and gentle with my friends and other girls. A lot of stallion only treat me like I am a little filly but you treat me like a mare. Even though you have a scary face when you get angry but underneath all that is a kind and gentle stallion that I and the girls like." She then look up to Asura's face and said with a smile, "You are like a stallion from my dream Asura and I love you."

Asura was feeling a warm in his heart when he hear her say that. Even though she has a child like innocence, she is a very cute and lovely mare.

He smiled and said, "I love you too, you silly mare." He kissed her on the lips who leaned in and wrapped her arms around his neck. They kissed for a few minute and enjoyed their time with each other. After that, Asura paid for the food and said good bye to Pinkie and let the bakery. He walked through Ponyville and was lost in his thought, thinking about why the other girls liked him. He came out of his thought when he saw Apple Bloom, Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle walking towards the Everfree forest. Why are they going into a forest that has beast that can rip them apart within seconds. He then ran towards them.

The CMC were standing in front of the Everfree forest. Scootaloo said, "Girls. we have tried ice skating, cart racing and barrel rolling. We still haven't got our cutie marks."

Sweetie Belle said, "Now what do we do? We are running out of ideas for crusading."

Apple Bloom thought a bit and said, "How about we go to Zacora and get ourselves a cutie mark at potion making?"

Scootaloo said, "That's a great idea."

All three of them then shouted, "Cutie Mark Potion Maker! Yay!"

They were about to run into the forest until a voice called them from behind and stopped them in their tracks. "And where do you fillies think your going?"

They looked at whose voice was that and gasped when they saw it was Asura. They yelled "Asura!" and ran towards him and hugged him.

Asura hugged them and asked, "So girls. Can you tell me why you three are going into a forest that has flesh eating beast who would want to have a bite out of you?"

Apple Bloom said, "We are going to Zacora's house. She lives in the Everfree forest."

Asura asked, "Who is this Zecora pony and what does she do?"

Sweetie Belle said, "She is not a pony Asura. She is a zebra and she is a potion maker." Potion maker? A health potion or a cure potion? He is now interested to meet this Zecora. Maybe he can learn a thing or two from her.

Scootaloo said, "We are going to see her and see if we can get our cutie marks at potion making."

Asura said, "That's fine girls but you can't just go in there without someone to see over you."

Sweetie Belle said, "Then why don't you came with us. You can beat any of those beast easily. Please."

The three cute fillies then unleashed their most dangerous weapon at him. The cuticle cannon! All three of them used their puppy dog eyes at him. It was Super Effective!

HHHHHGGGGGGGGGGNNNNNNN!!!!!! Asura thought that he was going to die. He felt his heart was about to explode as the level of their cuteness was over 9000!!!

Asura sigh and said, "Okay girls. I'll come with you but please stop what you are doing with your eyes. You three are already cute enough but with your puppy dog eyes, you have weaponized your cuteness."

The fillies blushed and chuckled a bit. They along with Asura went into the forest towards Zecora's house. During their walk, he discovered several life forms which interested him. After walking for a while, they finally arrived at their destination. Asura saw a tree that has been made into a house.

It looked a little bit spooky with the strange decor and stuff. The fillies knocked at the door and waited. After a few seconds, the door opened and out came a zebra who was ... wooooooooow.

She wore some tribal clothes, which exposed a lot of her body that made her sexy. Some parts of her breast were exposed as well. Asura looked else where and mostly avoided staring at her beautiful body.

The three fillies greeted her, "Hi Zacora."

Zacora smiled and greeted them, "Hello my friends. It's so good to see you three." She then looked at Asura and said, "And who is this strange one?"

Apple Bloom said, "Zecora. We want you to meet our friend and hero, Asura."

Zacora stared at his body and asked, "Is he the one who kept you safe from any beast?"

Sweetie Belle said, "Yes he is. He is very strong."

Apple Bloom said, "And he is a monster hunter."

Scootaloo said, "And he is the one who cured my disease and fixed my wings. Look." She then flew around for a bit.

Zecora was impressed to see this and was happy for her. She said, "Well, I would like to welcome you Asura, to my humble abode."

Asura nodded and said, "Thank you Zecora. It's nice to meet you too."

Zecora invited them in her house. They went in and saw that her house looked more like a witch house. Several ingredients hanging from the walls and ceiling. A huge pot in the middle and various bottles filled with some kind of liquid were on a table.

After they settled down, Zecora asked, "So, how may I be of service?"

Apple Bloom said, "We came here to see if you can help us in getting our cutie marks in potion making."

Zecora nodded and said, "I would be happy to help you in making potions little filly." She then looked at Asura and asked, "Would you like to join as well?"

Asura nodded and said, "I would like that, thank you."

Zecora then started to teach them how to make a potion. The first one was about a health potion that can heal minor injuries. She also described what kind of herbs and flowered they would required for this potion. She had some in her house and started to show them how to make it.

Asura has been listening to her attentively and memorizing everything she is saying. This potion knowledge would be of some use to him later. While they were making the potion, they came upon a problem.

Zecora said, "Oh dear me. It seems that I am out of "Blue Bird of Paradise" and "Rainbow flower". I will need to go out an find it. You all please stay here for my return."

Asura said, "I am coming with you Zecora. There are some very dangerous beast in this forest."

Zecora smiled and said, "Thank you for coming with me. It will be a great help."

Asura turned towards the fillies and said, "Girls. Please stay here while we return with the ingredients, okay. You will be safe here."

The fillies nodded and started to talk with each other. Asura and Zecora then walked into the forest and search for the two ingredients.

During the walk, Zecora asked, "So tell me Asura. Where are you from?"

Asura said, "I came from a different world called earth."

Zecora was surprised to hear that he came from another world. He must be an alien and she could learn their knowledge.

She asked, "What are you exactly? What is your world like and what do you do?"

Asura said, "My world is riddled big gigantic flesh eating monsters that can destroy a small town like Ponyville in minutes. As for me. I am what you can call a human. Well an evolved human that is called a monster hunter. Evolved humans likes us are the ones who protect towns and cities from the monsters. We even hunt them and eat them for their proteins. The more monsters we eat, the stronger we get. And most of all, it pays well."

Zecora was shocked to hear how dangerous his world is and that he and his kind hunted these dangerous monsters on a daily basis. She became really fascinated by him. A fine species that have adapted to a harsh world and is now above the food chain.

Asura asked her, "Tell me about yourself Zecora. Where do you come from and why are you living in this dangerous forest?"

Zecora smiled and said, "I come from a far away land called Zebrafrica. My kind live off the land which has blessed us with many bountiful resources. I left my home to see the world and finally came to this forest. It is true that there are many beast lurking in this forest but it also has many rare plants that I can make potions from."

Asura was amazed that she lived here for the rare plants despite the danger. They walked for a few minutes and finally came upon one of the ingredients.

Zecora said, "There is it. One of the ingredients for the potion. Blue Bird of Paradise."

What king of a name it that. He looked at the plant and finally understood why it was called that. The plant really look like it had a blue bird resting on it's top.

Zecora was walking in close to pick it up but Asura's "Superhuman Hearing" alerted him that there was something dangerous hiding near the plant. He quickly moved closer to Zecora, wrapped his arms around her and pulled her back. This shocked her and made her blush upon skin contact. She was about to tell him to release her but a sudden growl gained her attention. What she saw, stunned her.

It looked like a that was made out of tree branches and leaves. It was also drooling green liquid like substance. Could be tree sap or something. Four more beast joined the first one. They then move closer to Zecora and Asura menacingly.

Asura put Zecora behind him in order to protect her. He then started to release his intimidation around him which stopped the beast. Zecora was surprise that he is defending her when she knows how to fight these monsters. She then saw some red aura leaking from Asura's body which made the beast stopped right in their track. She was confused as to why these beast stopped when they are ferocious and will not stop until they catch their prey. She then felt an aura around her which made her feel safe. She then understood that Asura was letting out an aura that not only stopped the beast but is protecting her as well.

Asura asked her, "Zecora. Do you know what these things are?"

Zecora said, "Yes I do. They are beast made from dead tree branches and leaves. They are called Timber wolf." Oh, they are called that since they are made of wood. Clever.

Asura said, "So, how have you dealt with them?"

Zecora said, "I have a herb that lets out a scent that these Timber wolf don't like. That is how I have been safe from them."

While they were talking, one of the bigger wolf lunge at Asura. It didn't care what he was. It just wanted to sink it's teeth into his flesh and eat him. However, it didn't went how it want it to.

Asura sensed danger when he wasn't looking. He used "Rankyaku" and swung his left leg three times vertically that shot out three vertical air compressed blades. The blades went towards the wolves. The first two blades hit *Shhiiinnnggg* the ones who were standing back while the third one *Shhiiinnnggg* cut straight through the wolf that was attacking. Three of the wolves were cut in two instantly.

Zecora was shocked and amazed when she saw him sending flying blades that cut three of the wolves without looking. She saw the remaining two wolves became enraged when they saw their fellow wolves killed in front of them. They charged at Asura who just stood there and raised his right leg. He then used "Rankyaku" and swung his leg horizontally that shot out a horizontal air blade, that *Shhiiinnnggg* cut the two wolves at the same time.

Some of the Timber wolves sap fell on his body, which he devoured it and gain its DNA. He looked back at Zecora and saw that she was starring at him with wide eyes and jaw agape. She had a hard time if she fought just one of these Timber wolves but he just dealt with them in less then 5 seconds.

She came out of her thought when Asura said, "Well, they are down now, so we can get that plant and move on to the next on."

Zecora nodded and picked up the plant and then walked towards the next ingredient. When they left, the remains of the Timber Wolfs began to float and started to join together. Then something large approached the floating pile of wood.

During the walk, she kept thinking how strong he must be if he could take down 5 Timber wolves with ease. She then began to wonder what else he could do. She looked at his body closely and saw how well he was built. Perfect amount of muscles were on his arms and legs. He had 8 packs and a huge chest. Those fine lines between the muscles just made her want to touch him. She then blushed at what she just thought. He is an attractive male and since the fillies praised him so much, he must be an interesting one.

After walking for a short time, they finally found the second plant. Zecora said, "That is the final ingredient we need for the potion. The Rainbow Flower."

Asura looked at the plant and saw why it was called that. It was indeed a flower that has colors like a rainbow.

Asura was the one who moved in to pick the flower because last time, Zecora was in danger. So this time he will take the danger while Zecora stayed behind. She smiled as he did that. Males would use them as shield if they are in danger but he himself is going into danger, so she would not have to. This made her happy to see a male who cares about the safety of females. However, unknown to them, a beast was making its way to Zecora without making any noise.

Asura picked the plant and said, "I have it Zecora. Let mov-?" He stopped himself when he heard two sounds of breathing. One belonged to Zecora while the other belonged to someone behind her. He immediately turned back and looked at her. He saw something huge looming over Zecora who didn't notice it's presence. He screamed at her, "Zecora! Get out of there now!"

Zecora became confused when he said that. Why would he need her to move from her position. She felt something breathing on the back of her neck and became tense. She turned her head to look at what it was and went stiff with fear. It was a beast that looks like the Timber wolf but it was way too big. She saw that it lifted its paw above her and then brought it down with such force, intending to crush her. She closed her eyes, waiting for her death. She then heard *Crash* and some wind were flowing against her face but she didn't feel any pain. She was alive but how. She opened her eyes and saw that Asura was holding her in a bridal style with her face against his chest. She blushed immensely but held on to him when she saw the huge beast.

This thing was made out of trees. Trees! With it's body being made out of trees, it was huge. Almost the size of the dragon he killed at the tournament. Is that a crown made of wood on its head?

Asura put Zecora down on her hooves gently and then started to walked towards the huge wolf. Zecora latched on to his right arm and said, "What are you doing!? Do you want to die! That is the Timber Wolf King! It cannot be killed! We need to run away now!"

Asura looked at her with a soft smile and petted her head. He gently said, "It will be fine Zecora. Have you forgotten that I came from a world where I hunt monsters much bigger than this one. Trust me and stay here where you will be safe."

Zecora listened to him and felt that she could trust his words. She slowly let him go and saw him walking towards the Timber Wolf King. She did not want to lose her new friend as she have started to have some feelings for him. She began to pray for his safety.

Asura stopped right in front of the Timber Wolf King. He looked up and glared at its face. He said, "So. You are the so called king of this forest? Ha ha ha. How laughable. Your not a king. You are nothing but a bunch of pile of dead woods stacked together. You may look strong on the outside but on the inside, your nothing but a hollow piece of crap. Don't get cocky with me. You lower life form."

The Timber Wolf King became fearful when it heard his demonic voice but then it got enraged for speaking to it like that. How dare this flesh bag speak to it like this, the ruler of this forest. It raised its paw above him and was about to crush him but Asura didn't gave it the chance to do so. He quickly raised both of his arms and pointed towards the Timber Wolf King. His left arm was above his right arm with his fist clenched hard. He then said "Rokuogan" and *Thhhhrrrrroooooommmmm* a huge shock wave was sent out of his fists, that was concentrated in a forward direction, that traveled through the Timber Wolf King's body and damaging it immensely from the inside out. The Timber Wolf King's heart was completely destroyed by Asura's devastating attack.

Zecora saw that the attack he unleashed upon the Timber Wolf King was so fierce, that the trees behind the Timber Wolf King were destroyed as they stood in the path of the shock wave. She then looked at the Timber Wolf King and saw it was not moving at all. After a few seconds, the Timber Wolf King then *Throom* burst into thousands of pieces.

Zecora's jaw hit the ground and her eyes went wide as dinner plates. The Timber Wolf King that has ruled this forest for hundreds of years and almost killed her a few time, now lay dead in front of her by the hands of her new friend. She could not believe what just happened. She looked at Asura who looked at her with a smiled. Her heart was beating fast and she began to feel something fluttering in her stomach. Her respect for him escalated as does her feeling for him.

Some of the sap fell on Asura's body which he devoured and obtained its DNA.

Timber Wolf DNA
Can mix his virus with wood to create a wood base infected.

Timber Wolf King DNA
Can control the Timber Wolfs.

He then brought her the last ingredient and gave it to her. He said, "Now that we have what we need, it's time to go back to your house."

They went back to Zecora's house. During the walk, she just kept thinking about him as how he easily killed the Timber Wolf King when not even the princesses were able to take it down. She remembered him saying that he fought monsters back on his world that were much bigger than the Timber Wolf King. She didn't believe him at first but now after see him kill the Timber Wolf King with ease, she believes every word he spoke. He really is a genuine monster hunter and he saved her and killed a dangerous beast of this forest. She was now smitten by him.

They arrived at Zecora's house and went in. They then completed the potion with the missing ingredients. The fillies were amazed when they see the complete health potion. Even Asura. Even though, the filles didn't get their cutie marks, they were happy to spend their time learning from Zecora. After learning how to make a potion, it was time to leave and take the fillies to their home.

Before they left, Asura asked, "Zecora. Do you need to go out again to get more ingredients?" He was looking out for her safety.

Zecora nodded and said, "Yes. I will need to restock my ingredients so I will be ready for anything."

Asura said, "Then let me help you with that." He then walked around the room and collected small pieces of the ingredients, that was used in the potion, and put them in an empty flower pot. He then formed some hand signs and brought his hand down on the pot and said, "Wood Style Plant Growth".

The fillies and zebra gasped as they saw several plants growing out of the pot. They were the same ingredients she used in making the potion but now there were several of them growing out of the pot.

Zecora smiled at him and said, "Thank you Asura. Now I won't have to go out for several days to collect more ingredients."

Asura said, "There is still one more thing that I need to give you Zecora."

Asura then took all of them outside. When they were outside, Asura then whistled *Wwhhhheeeeeee* out loudly. The girls were confused as to why he did that. Could he be bringing a friend? Their attention were directed towards several growling voices. They gasped when they saw 10 Timber Wolfs coming out into the open. Zecora stand in front of the fillies and was about to attack them but Asura stopped her.

Asura said, "Zecora. You don't have to hurt them."

Zecora became confused and asked, "Why? They are Timber Wolfs who are going to chew us to the bones."

Asura smiled and said, "Because they are here for your safety. Say hello to your protectors."

The girls jaws drop to the ground and their eyes went wide as dinner plates when they heard that. Timber Wolfs actually protecting someone was unheard of but Asura said that they are now. Could he be a beast tamer. They moved closer to the Timber Wolfs and saw that they didn't growled. They then started to pet them.

Asura saw their interaction with the Timber Wolfs and saw how cute they looked. He used Timber Wolf King DNA to order these 10 wolves to protect Zecora. He ordered the rest of the Timber Wolfs to protect anyone else who enter this forest.

After that, they began to walk towards Ponyville, but before they did, Zecora hugged him and even gave him a kiss to the cheek. Asura went wide eyes at her action. He looked at her who gave him a wink and walked into her house while swaying her luscious hips. Damn, these females are really forwards with their flirting.

Shaking his head, he took the fillies back to Ponyville where they then left for their homes. Asura was having some carving for sweet, so he went to Sugar Cube Corner. When the bakery came into his view, he saw Fluttershy running towards Sugar Cube Corner. He became worried and followed her inside the bakery.

In the bakery, he saw Fluttersy, Twilight and Pinkie who was gobbling up lots of cakes that were placed on many tables. He saw that the bakers, Mr and Ms Cake were baking and putting more cakes on a table but they were being eaten or more specifically swallowed by Pinkie. How she does that and remains slim is a wonder. Maybe her sugary activities and running around with speed would have consume all the calories.

He smiled and greeted them, "Hello girls. How are you all doing."

They all hugged him and greeted him. Asura then asked them, "So, what going on here?"

Fluttershy said, "I ... I have a surprise for all of you. You won't believe what I found at the edge of the Everfree forest." She then looked at her mane and said, "Come on out little guy. It's okay."

What Asura saw almost made him squeal like a little girl but stopped himself ... just barely. He saw three cute little creature came out of Fluttershy's mane, that was on the level of cuteness with the CMC.

Dawww. What a cute little creature. Fluttershy gasped and said, "Three?"

Twilight came and looked that the three cute things. She said, "They are amazing. What are they?"

Fluttershy said, "I'm not sure. I'm also not sure where these other two came from."

One of the cute things flew towards Twilight and around her body. She said, "I'll take one off your hands. I have never seen something so adorable." She hugged the cute thing.

Fluttershy smiled and asked Pinkie, "Pinkie. Do you want the other one?"

Pinkie stuck her tongue out and said, "Bleaah. A Parasprite? Are you kidding." They are called Parasprite? Pinkie then started to walk out of the bakery.

Fluttershy and Twilight were confused as to why she refused to have a cute thing like these one.

Twilight asked, "A Para-what?"

Fluttershy asked, "How could you not like-?"

Pinkie stopped at the door and said, "Now I got to go and find a trombone."

This further confused them and Twilight asked, "A what?"

Pinkie said "A trombone. You know." She then did a sound of the so called instrument and went outside, leaving everyone confused.

Twilight sigh and said, "Typical Pinkie." Her Parasprite flew to her face and she nuzzled it.

Asura just smiled at them as he saw how they were interacting with the Parasprite. He was also worried about Pinkie's behavior against the Parasprite. What can a tiny adorable creature like it can do? Maybe Pinkie must know something about it. But for now, he wanted to eat something sweet. He took some cakes from the table and ate it. He paid for them and then left to his house as it was almost night time. He laid on his bed and was thinking about the Parasprite. What mysteries will these little guys hold? He then fell asleep.

Sixth Day

This morning, he was still sleepy when he woke up. He forced himself and got out of his bed and went to the kitchen. He made breakfast for the girls before they woke up and went back to his room and slept. After sleeping for a few hours, he finally woke up and feel refreshed. He then went to the bathroom and washed up and got ready for this day. He looked at the clock and saw it was 10 in the morning. He then left his house but left his two weapons in his room. He didn't feel that he need them today. He walked through Ponyville but there was something strange going on here.

The town looked like a storm went through here. There were building that were missing some parts, shops looked trashed and ponies were running around. What is happening here? Is it another monster attack?

Asura immediately activated his "Hair Sensor" and "Echolocation" and searched the town for any monsters or enemy. He found nothing of that sort but he did find a whole bunch of little things flying around the town. He was confused as to what these things might be. Could they be the things these ponies are running from? Naahhh. That can't be.

His map showed him that a group of those tiny flying things were coming in his view. He looked at the direction they were coming from and when he saw what it was, his jaw hit the ground and his eyes went wide. He could not believe what he was seeing.

Those tiny flying things were Parasprite and they were eating the whole town! The Parasprite were eating wood, cloth, metal, brick etc but they avoided eating any food that the ponies eat. Well that is a good thing. Right? He was shocked to see that the amount of things the Parasprite were eating were twice or trice the size of their own. He was fascinated by these creatures but one thing came to his mind regarding these Parasprite. Where did they came from? Fluttershy only brought 3 of them. But why was she surprised to see three of them when she said she only brought one.

He kept thing the answer to that question while observing the Parasprite and finally found his answer. He saw one Parasprite like it was about to vomit. Maybe it has eaten too much? Wrong. The Parasprite puked out a ball that was the same size of its body. Asura looked closely at the ball and saw that it started to move and then turned into another Parasprite.

Asura was stumped to see this. For an organism to reproduce by itself by just eating food was shocking to him. He then looked at another Parasprite who was also puking out another Parasprite. He then saw the rest of the Parasprite doing the same. Their numbers just keeps on growing. What a wonderful living organism. He wants it DNA.

He immediately shot out a red tentacle and grabbed one of the Parasprite and pulled it back in his hand. He was about to devour it but when he saw its face, he just couldn't make himself do it. The Parasprite was looking at him with huge round eyes that made it really cute and the sound *Pree* *Pree* *Pree* it was making, made it even cuter. Even thought they were eating the town, he just could not devour or hurt them.

He sigh and thought about what to do in this situation. He got an idea and formed a very small and thin needle from his finger and softly pierced the Parasprite and took a sample of it's DNA. It didn't felt anything since the needle was so small, almost the size of his "Hair Sensor".

Parasprite DNA
Can create a small infected that can spawn several smaller infected by itself.

Not bad at all. This will be very useful in the future. After taking it's DNA, he released the Parasprite, who then joined its fellow in eating the town. Now Asura was thinking how to stop them from completely devouring the town. He was brought out of his thought when Fluttershy, Rarity, Rainbow, Applejack and Twilight ran towards him. Where's Pinkie?

Twilight said, "Asura! Thanks goodness, we found you. We need your help to stop them from eating all of Ponyville."

Fluttershy said, "Please stop them but don't hurt them Asura. They are just hungry." HHHHHHHHGGGGGGGGNNNNNNN!!!! How cute can she get? Even though, the Parasprite are eating her home, she still worries about their safety. She is just the sweetest and kindest mare there is.

Asura smiled and said, "Don't worry Fluttershy. I will not hurt them."

Rainbow said, "Then how are you going to stop them?"

Asura said, "Oh, I have a way to stop them. Or more specifically, to collect them all."

Rarity asked, "What do you have in mind darling?"

Asura nodded and said, "Applejack. Do you remember how I collected apples from your apple orchard?"

Applejack nodded and said, "Sure I do partner. You did your fancy magic to magnetize the apples and then you ...." Her eyes widened when she realized what he was going to do and grinned.

Asura smiled and said, "Yes Applejack. I am going to do the same thing to these Parasprite."

Twilight asked, "What does he mean by that Applejack?"

Applejack said while grinning, "Oh you are going to love what he is about to do Twilight. Just sit back and watch him do his magic."

The other did that and saw Asura in wonder about what he was going to do. Asura moved towards the center of the town and raised his right arm. He cast a magnetization spell through out Ponyville that magnetized all of the Parasprite. He then cast a stronger magnetization spell on his right hand. After that he just waited and see the Parasprite being pulled towards his right hand.

The girls and the town's ponies saw that every Parasprite were being forcefully pulled towards Asura's right hand. They were being piled on top of each other and within a few minutes, all of the Parasprite were caught and stuck in his right hand. There was a huge ball made up of Parasprite resting on top of Asura's right hand.

The entire town's ponies cheered at Asura for stopping the Parasprite. But now there was a question of what he will do about the Parasprite. He cant hurt the little cuties.

Fluttershy asked, "What are you going to do to them Asura?"

Asura thought for a bit and then smiled. He said, "Something that will make them harmless."

This confused them all at what he was going to do. They saw him raising his left hand towards the Parasprite and from his hand, several small branch like tentacles shot out towards the Parasprite. The ponies thought that he was going to kill them but Fluttershy didn't. She believed in him and waited to see what he did.

The tentacles touched each of the Parasprite and injected the virus into them. Asura ordered them to modify their bodies from the inside out. After a short time, he was done modifying the Parasprite. He took back all the virus and the tentacles returned into his left hand.

Asura then released all of the Parasprite which made the ponies gasped that they will again wreak havoc on their town. But their fears turn to confusion when they saw that the Parasprite were simply flying around the town and relaxing on many surface of the half eaten buildings.

Fluttershy asked, "What did you do to them Asura, if you don't mind me asking?"

Asura smiled and said, "I simply modified their bodies to act like a normal animal. Meaning that they now can eat limited amount of food and as for their multiplication, they can make one of their own in two months time. I also changed their diet to normal food that we eat. But I am quite baffled that they can eat and digest things like wood, brick, glass, metal etc."

Rainbow pointed towards Twilight and said, "Well, you can thanks Twilight for that. They were eating every food in Ponyville and Twilight used one of here spell to stop them and she did. The Parasprite changed from eating our food to our town instead."

Twilight was blushing with embarrassment and lowered her head and twiddled with her fingers. Asura smiled at how cute he was looking like that.

He said, "So, you changed their diet with just your magic?" She nodded. He smiled and said, "That is amazing. You really need to teach me that kind of magic Twilight."

Twilight cheered up when he complimented her. The other girls thought that he as going to scold her but they were wrong. He would never scold or hurt them. Fluttershy hugged him that he not only saved their home but saved the Parasprite as well. The other girls followed her and hugged him too.

After hugging for a few moments, Asura had a question that was still on his mind. He asked, "Girls. I wanted to ask you all something. Have any of you seen where Pinkie is?"

From the girls answer, Pinkie has been running around Ponyville in search of many musical instrument. Why would she want the instrument when the town was being eaten by the Parasprite. His and the rest of the town's attention was taken when they heard some music. They all looked at the direction the music was coming from and were surprised to see that it was Pinkie Pie. She was playing multiple instrument at the same time.

Pinkie just walked through the town while she played the instrument. Twilight said, "Pinkie. What are you doing? Why are you playing those instru .... ment?" She stopped at what she saw.

The Parasprite were now dancing according to the music. They then started to follow Pinkie in a long line while Pinkie lead them all back to the Everfree forest. The ponies who were looking at this scene had their jaws on the ground with their eyes wide in disbelief.

Asura chuckled at Pinkie for being Pinkie and he loved her for that. He said, "Well girls. It looks like the crisis has been averted. So I will be taking a relaxing walk through the forest okay. Bye."

He then walked into the forest and relaxed his mind. He walked for an hour as he heard the sound of nature around him which sooth him. He was so lost in his relaxed mind that he didn't realized that he walked deep into the forest.

As he continued to walk, he was listening to his surroundings. It was so peaceful and quite. So quite. Almost as if he was .....

Asura eyes opened wide and he stopped right in his track. He listened to his surrounding and found that it was too quite. There were no sound of birds, insects and animals around him. Silence looms the air. He tense his muscles and became ready for anything. This silence means that he is being hunted by something or someone.

He then heard a sound far behind him, like it took air in its lungs and then breath through something small and *Poot* something was launched and it was making its way towards him from behind him. Asura immediately swung his right hand behind him and caught the thing that was shoot at him. He then brought his right hand in front of his face and looked at what was shot at him. He saw that that it was a dart that was filled with some purple liquid. Probably poison. Idiots. It won't work on him as he can produce different poison.

Asura did the mistake of lowering his guard when he thought that it was poison. He was wrong. As he was inspecting the dart, he brought it closer to his face to look at it more clearly. When the dart was closer to his face, it exploded into a purple mist that surrounds his face. This surprised him and due to this, he inhaled the mist which was a bad move.

The mist immediately attacked his brain which made him dizzy and made him lose his balance. While he was trying to regain his balance, he heard multiple breathing and then *Poot* *Poot* *Poot* *Poot* *Poot* several darts were shot at him from every direction. Due to his dizziness and lack of balance, he could not dodged them and the darts *Shik* *Shik* *Shik* *Shik* *Shik* hit him all over his body. He felt that this liquid was paralyzing his body and he fell to his knees.

Damn it. He shouldn't have let his guard down. He then heard someone running towards him. The attacker? He then felt something hard *Bash* hitting the back of his head. So, trying to knock him out? You Trash!

In that moment, his anger raised instantly at the thought and swung his right fist in the direction of the attacker and *Crack* hit something and *Splat* killing it. Asura smiled that he killed it but then heard more footsteps running towards him and started *Bash* *Bash* *Bash* *Bash* *Bash* hitting his head. So they are trying to knock him out and capture him. You bastards. He won't let them take him just like that.

As he was loosing his conscious, he released a purple mist from his body that surrounded him and the attackers. This was no ordinary mist but something worse. He used "Poison Mist" that was mixed with his virus. The attackers got infected by the virus but it didn't attacked their bodies. Oh no. He simply ordered the virus to stay dormant inside their bodies. He has something much worse planned for these bastards. After he planted the virus successfully, he grinned as he lose his consciousness.

After 6 Hours

Asura was regaining his conscious slowly. He still felt a little bit dizzy and weak from the poison. He also heard come voices speaking to one another. He could feel his virus fighting against the poison and making his body more resistant to it. After a few minutes, he was finally able to see and hear clearly. He saw that he was somewhere in a very large room made of stones that looked ancient. He looked around the room and saw four huge long chains hanging from the walls. He followed the chains at saw that they were attached to his arms and legs. One chain for each of his limbs. So whoever they were, they captured him and chained him too. They also stripped him of his clothes but left his swim trunks on.

Asura was getting angry by the seconds and thought maliciously what he was going to do to these bastards. He came out of his thoughts when the door to his room opened and several stallions wearing tribal clothes came in with swords, spears and bows. They were all earth ponies.

Seriously? Asura was captured by these kinds of being. Oh, that really really made him depressed. He could have accepted it they were some special military force or even some dark cult but this? This was really pathetic. As he was drowning in his self pity, another one entered the room. When he looked at who it was, it shocked him.

The thing that entered the room was .... he could not describe what it was. It looked like it was a cross between a monkey and a dog or a wolf. And is that a hand at the end of its tail?

It looked at Asura and grinned and walked towards him like he own him. He said, "So this is the great monster hunter I have been hearing about. Doesn't look very strong."

It saw that he was still staring at it and said, "What's this. It can't even speak to me hmm? Too speechless to say anything?"

Asura then finally said it, "What in the hell are you suppose to be?"

It became angry and said, "My name is Ahuizotl. I am the aztec king and you monster hunter, now belong to me."

Asura smiled and said, "That's where you are wrong Ahuizotl. I belong to no one."

Ahuizotl said, "You will be my slave when I am done with you. Then you will-"

Asura cut him off and said, "Help you with conquer the world. Blah blah blah. Geez. You nymph skulls need to come up with a different plan. Everyone of you have the same idea. Pathetic."

While he was saying that, he scanned the area and found that there were 10 stallions who were carrying his virus. 5 of them were present in this room, while the rest were present in different rooms.

Ahuizotl became mad and threatened him, "You will do well to follow my orders or I will have to do something that you will not like."

Asura asked with a smile, "And what would that be?"

Ahuizotl grinned and said, "I found a yellow Pegasus who is in love with you. You don't want anything happen to her now would you?" He grinned more when he saw Asura face changing.

When Asura heard that he was talking about Fluttershy, his face turned to a scowl. To make him follow him, this thing is going to hurt Fluttershy. No! He will not let this thing touch her. He will slaughter this thing and it's followers like the trash they are!

Asura mentally ordered the 10 infected to hatch and takeover their host. The virus immediately did that and the 10 stallions were now under the control of the virus. He then ordered them each to move closer to a group of enemy. 5 infected in the room moved towards a different group of enemies and awaited his orders while the 5 infected outside the room did the same with other groups.

Play this music for their slaughter.

Asura then stood on his legs and his muscles bulge due to his immense anger. His scowl turned to an angry grin and glared at Ahuizotl who was beginning to fear him.

Asura spoke in a demonic voice, "If that is the case then I have no choice but to exterminate everyone of you trash from this world. Good bye."

This made them fear at what he just said. They had him chained up but still he acts like he can get away from them.

Ahuizotl out of fear shouted, "Get him before he does anything!" With that, the stallions charged at Asura in order to subdue him. They thought that they can take him down as they did before. How wrong they were.

Asura exhaled loudly and then inhaled a ton of air. Due to being inside a building, everyone began to suffocate due to the sudden lack of air. After inhaling a large amount of air, he then used one of Zebura's special moves. He shouted "Sound Bazooka" that send out shock wave in every direction, destroying the room and knocking back the enemies. Large cracks *Crackle* started to form on Asura's chains and then *Throom* they shattered into thousands of pieces.

Asura kept shouting "Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!" for about 20 seconds and then stops. He looked around the room and saw it was falling apart and the enemies were beginning to stand on their legs after being knocked away by his shock wave. They were also injured greatly by his attack but still managed to stand back on their legs.

Ahuizotl dig himself out from under a rubble and saw his soldiers damaged. He then looked back at Asura and was frightened to see that his chains were destroyed as well. He was free of his bindings and he didn't looked happy at all. Asura was glaring at him with hate that made him shiver with fear.

However, when he saw how many of his soldiers were ready to engage him, Ahuizotl fear was replaced with confidence. He then said, "You can't win monster hunter! We are many while you are just one! Ha ha ha ha ha!"

Asura then ordered the infected stallions to turn into "Bio Bomb". The infected started to shook violently as the virus began to mutate their insides. This gained the attention of nearby enemies and they moved closer to them to see what was wrong with them. Big mistake.

Several red tentacles shot out from the bodies of the infected and grabbed nearby enemies, and then pulled them towards itself. The infected then *Booom* exploded, killing nearby enemies and showering the area and enemies with infected flesh, organs and blood.

Those unfortunate enemies who were showered with the infected flesh or blood became infected zombies. Asura mentally ordered the infected zombies to attack the others. They did that and started to attack the others and turning them into infected zombies as well.

Asura then started to walk towards Ahuizotl who was yelling the his former soldiers who were attacking and infecting other enemies. He became fearful when he saw Asura coming closer to him. He ran out of the room and Asura followed him while he ordered the infected to kill and collect all enemies for devouring.

As Asura followed Ahuizotl, he saw that they many hallways like an old castle or something. To confirm this, he used "Echolocation" on the entire building he was in.

With the sound vibration going into every direction, it gave him the image of the surroundings and it was confirmed that he was in a huge building that was 80% buried below the ground with the remaining 20% above the ground. So that's where the exit is.

As Asura followed Ahuizotl, he found him in front of a huge double door with 50 soldiers guarding it.

Ahuizotl shouted to them, "Quick! Kill him immediately! I don't care how strong he is! Just kill him!"

The soldiers followed his command and attacked Asura. Ahuizotl stand closer to the door and watched his soldiers attack him, thinking that they might be able to stop him. He was dead wrong.

Asura was getting annoyed as Ahuizotl fled from him and now, more of his soldiers stand in his path. He got angry and as the soldiers came closer, he shot out a red tentacle towards the nearest soldier and caught him by the throat. He then pulled him towards his hand and grabbed his throat and lifted him closer to his face. What he did next terrified the shit out of everyone.

Asura's eyes turned red and he opened his mouth wide which were full of long razor sharp teeth that made everyone's eyes go wide as dinner plate.

Asura growled *Grrrrrrrrrraaaaaaaaaaa* and then *Chomp* bite off the entire head of the enemy in his grip in front of everyone making them gasped as blood sprayed around from the now headless body. This made the soldiers stop right in their tracks when they saw this act of cannibalism. Asura then chewed the head inside his mouth that emitted *Crunch* *Crunch *Crunch* which made the others shiver with fear. They then gasped when they saw red tentacles emerging out if his body and latched onto the headless corpse in his grip. The corpse was then pulled into Asura's body and was devoured. Asura didn't care if they saw him like this because he was going to devour everyone here.

Everyone saw this cannibalism and were now trembling with fear. Especially Ahuizotl. They have never seen someone being devoured like this before as they have traveled through many dangerous places and saw some of their fellow being killed and eaten by wild animals but this. This is simply cannibalism. And to their horror, they saw Asura charging towards them with a murderous face and mouth wide open. They tried to defend themselves but were no match against Asura.

Asura *Chomp* bite off some of the enemies while tearing *Keeerriiippp* some of them into pieces. Several red tentacles emerged from his back and started to *Shik* *Shik* *Shik* skewer the enemies and pulling them in and devouring them. It didn't take long for him to kill and devour the 50 enemies.

Ahuizotl was trembling with fear as he saw his soldiers being devoured by the very one he wanted to control. What was he thinking when he thought that he could control him by threatening his lover. He didn't want to suffer the same fate of his soldiered. So he opened the huge double door and fled inside but not before he screamed when he felt a sharp pain in his tail.

As Asura was tearing and devouring the soldiers, he saw that Ahuizotl was opening the door and fleeing inside. This made him angry and shouted "Single Slash Voice Cutter" and launched a blade made of sound out of his mouth at Ahuizotl at the speed of sound. However, Ahuizotl managed to get in the room but his tail was still outside and was *Shiiiing* cut by his attack, which made him let out a painful scream.

After devouring the soldiers, he walked over to Ahuizotl's sever tail and stomp on it, devouring it, gaining his DNA. Before going into the room, the infected informed him mentally that all of the enemies have been infected except for Ahuizotl. Asura then ordered them to come into this room as he walked inside.

Ahuizotl DNA
Can now create multiple limbs.

When Asura entered the room, he saw that it was a huge place and had three huge stone door. One in front of him, one to the left and one to the right. He saw that Ahuizotl was standing in the middle of the room and there was a switch on the floor.

Asura said, "This is what happens to those who threaten my friends. They get devoured." He then glared at Ahuizotl and said, "And now, I will devour you."

Ahuizotl was still afraid of him but he had a hidden weapon that was present in this room. He said, "I may not be able to kill you, but there is something that this room holds that will kill you. This place we are in, is an ancient temple built thousands of years ago to hold something very dangerous. And now you will face them and die!"

Ahuizotl stepped on the switch and ran towards a wall. He immediately climbed the wall and into a small hole that was in the ceiling to escape. Asura was about to attack him but stopped when the three huge stone doors began to open. As they were opening, he heard some *Thud* stomping, like something huge was making it's was in the room. Asura waited to see what it was and what came out of the stone doors, shocked him.

Three huge beings made of flesh and metal came out from the doors. The first one was an black armored knight at 17 feet tall with spikes all over its body. Its left arm was a scythe and its right arm had a chain that was connected to a sever head. He named it Dullahan.

Next one looked a like a female knight at 18 feet tall with black and gold armor with spikes. Just like the Dullahan, it had its sever head chained to its left arm while its right arm was an axe. It also had long golden hair. He named it Iron Maiden.

The last one was the biggest of them all. It stood at 20 feet tall and had black armor. It wielded a long spear like sword with many teeth on the sides. There were some chains hanging from its back. The most notable feature of his thing was that it had two heads. One on its neck that looks like a wolf's head and one on its chest which looked like a human skull with one green eye and flesh on its side with two skeletal hands. He named it Red Riding Hood.

What the Hell are these things!!!??? Are they the weapons Ahuizotl talked about? Are they from a thousands years before? How strong can these things be? Asura was in deep thought about what these could be. He had never seen anything like these things before. He was also feeling a little bit creep out by their looks. It looked like it was something made with the darkest magic of all.

Asura was so busy in thinking that he didn't even notice the Dullahan walking towards him, then swung its chain head at him *Bash* and launched him towards a wall *Crash*.

Asura was stunned at not what just happened but that he felt something he has yet to experience ever since he came to this world. He felt pain. These thing were capable of inflicting pain on him. If that is the case then he needs to get serious with them. He got out of the wall to engage them but was met *Bash* with the sever head of the Iron Maiden. He was launched towards the Red Riding Hood, who *Shik* skewered him through his chest on its sword and then threw him behind, thinking that it had killed him.

Asura was laying still on the ground as he was experiencing pain with his chest opened and skewered heart. Yup. His heart was dead. He wasn't even breathing. Yet he was still alive. It was thanks to his "Prototype Virus" that kept him alive. The virus began to heal his wounds, made a new heart and closed his chest.

If these things were able to beat him with ease, then what would happen if they went out of his temple and into the open world. They would kill everyone and raze the kingdoms. They would even kill his friends. His .... lovers.

NO!!!! He will not allow these things to harm his friends and lovers!!! He will stop them here, kill them and devour them!!! He will exterminate these things from the face of this world!!!

As the things were about to leave the room, a loud *Thud* stopped them in their tracks. Then a demonic voice spoke "Hey. Where do you think your going you bastards?"

They tuned their attention to the voice and saw that Asura was back on his feets and was fully healed and had a demonic look. Due to the darkness in the room, his look only made it more scary as his eyes and mouth glow red with anger.

Asura said, "I don't know what you are and I don't care. But what I do know is that you need to be exterminated. So come and get me with your lives. You lower form."
