In the middle of the night where everything seems peaceful and most of everyone in Canterlot City are sleeping on their beds with their mind in dreamland, including one young girl resting on her large bed. Diamond Tiara, daughter of the rich businessman Filthy Rich and businesswoman Spoiled Milk Rich, is smiling as she is dreaming about riding a diamond horse running through a field of flowers and about to reach an apple from a tree.

Then suddenly she felt something poking from her bed with a growl sound that causes her to wake up from her dream.

“Uh?” Diamond Tiara puzzled as she looks around finding nothing as she is the only one in the room.

Diamond Tiara just shrugged and went back to sleep to continue her wonderful dream, but the poke happened again along with the growl that got her up again and shaking a little in fear.

“Okay, now that got my attention.” Diamond Tiara said to herself.

Diamond Tiara stayed quite for a few moments to hear the growl again and it happen as she listen to it carefully, despite feeling the fear within her raising up, and found the sound is coming from her bed, more specifically under her bed.

“It’s probably just a cat that snuck its way into my house. I hope…” Diamond Tiara gulped as she crawls to the edge of the bed.

Diamond Tiara looked down at the floor as she tries to mentally prepare herself to look down further despite her body is screaming at her not to, but she has to see what’s going on so she can go back to sleep and hope it’s nothing serious.

“Okay, little kitty cat, it’s time to come out now.” Diamond Tiara leaned her body down and look under her bed to find the cat.

Nothing happened for the next twenty seconds which the rich girl finds it weird because she definitely heard the sound, then the growl happens again, and a pair of glowing red eyes appear scaring Diamond Tiara and her instinct kicks in making her dodge a very skinny clawed arm that came out.

“AAAAAAAHHHH?!?!” Diamond Tiara screamed.

The skinny clawed arm tries finding the girl leaving its claw marks on the floor and then bend upward stretch out a bit more thrusting the claws on the bed close to Diamond Tiara, she quickly got off the bed.

“Daddy, mommy, anyone, HELP!!” Diamond Tiara screamed for help.

But before her hand could make contact to the doorknob of her bedroom, the skinny scary arm finally caught her by the ankle of her leg and pulls causing her to fall face-first on the floor, it drags her away from the door bringing the girl to the bed. Diamond Tiara kept on screaming while trying to break free from the monster’s grip, but no matter how much she struggles, she could not escape and fear of what’s going on happen if the monster took her under the bed.

“Diamond, sweetie, is everything okay?” Filthy Rich asked knocking on the door from the other side.

“HELP ME?!” Diamond Tiara responded with another scream.

“Oh dear, I warned you not to eat those grape frosted sugar cookies before bed.” Spoiled said as she opens the door and flip on the light switch.

“Now, what do you have to say for yours-AAAAAAHHHH?!” Spoiled screamed upon seeing a large creepy hand grabbing onto her daughter’s leg.

“Oh my god, Diamond!” Filthy Rich panicked and jumped forward to grab her hands.

“Get this thing off of me!” Diamond Tiara tried to move her leg hoping to slip out, but it’s not working.

The monster arm then stop as the skin starts to burn with smoke coming out and the growls in pain as it let’s go of Diamond Tiara’s leg, twitches and quickly retreated back under the bed and disappeared into the darkness.

The parents quickly pulled Diamond Tiara into them for a comfort embrace trying to calm her down from what just happened, and they were also trying to calm themselves down hoping what they saw was an illusion but the claw marks on the floor and on the bed convinced otherwise.

“Honey, where exactly did you brought that bed?” Spoiled asked.

“I swear, it was just a normal bed from the store.” Filthy said as his body shakes in fear.

“Well, something weird happen and I want it gone because I don’t sleep if whatever that was is still there.” Diamond Tiara feared that the monster will come after her again.

“Don’t worry, we all know just the person you can ask to for this help and he goes to your scholl as well.” Filthy Rich mentioned.

Both mother and daughter were confused of what he is talking about until realization came into their minds and they “Oh” at the same time, knowing what person can help them from this situation.

(Canterlot High)

“And then she said, “Now that’s a Banana.”” Pinkie finished the joke which her friends and Flash laugh together.

“My devil, how can a stupid fruit be so funny?” Aria asked between her laughter.

“Anything can be funny if you set the right mood and know the right punchline.” Pinkie explained as she gently fist-tap Rainbow Dash on the shoulder.

“Well, maybe I’ll use that line when I go demon hunting.” Flash said before eating his hotdog.

“Yeah, you haven’t been to one for quite a while, have you?” Adagio asked.

“Nope, the last demon hunt I went on was two weeks ago when an old lady tried to control all the cats in town.” Flash remembered.

“Those cats sure were vicious when they gave you a tough time.” Sunset teased.

“I’m just glad none of them were hurt in the end.” Fluttershy smiled.

“Hey, it’s not like I couldn’t just kill them for being controlled against their will. Not to mention that cat-lady demon needed some downtime in Hell.” Flash said.

“I bet you made her choke on her own hairball.” Rainbow Dash smirked.

“Please do not say such things, it’ll remind me of how my sweet Opal had to do that monster’s biding.” Rarity exclaimed while doing her makeup.

“And that is one of the many reasons why me and ma family are more of dog people than cats.” Applejack stated.

“At least we weren’t enslaved to be the pets and force to eat those gross cat foods.” Flash pointed out.

“But in any case, the Devil May Cry hasn’t gotten any demon hunting job since then and I’m worry that business might be in trouble if we don’t get any money in.” Sunset worried.

“Can’t you just sense the demons to where they’re hiding?” Aria asked.

“It’s not that simple, the demons may have started to appear in the city to either make their marks or come after me because of my demon bloodline or both, but they’re in hiding trying to find the right moment to make their move. It’s not like I can just close my eyes and see where they are.” Flash explained.

“So, the demons are like playing hide in seek?” Sonata guessed.

“Not exactly, it’s more like finding a needle in the haystack.” Flash said.

“I know what that’s like. Could never fine the damn needle.” Applejack angered, recalling playing the game, “Find the Needle in the Haystack” and always suck at it.

“Well, I have something that is better than a needle.” Diamond Tiara walked up to them with Silver Spoon and the Cutie Mark Crusaders.

“Hey girls, you need something awesome inspired by your seniors?” Rainbow Dash asked with a confident smile.

“Well, I was wondering if you can help me with this karate move, I’ve been working on.” Scootaloo excited.

“That’s not what we’re here for.” Applebloom said.

“Diamond Tiara has a problem and needs your help, Flash.” Silver Spoon revealed as Diamond Tiara feel nervous.

“Is something wrong, little princess?” Flash asked trying to make this a cheerful mood.

“Last night, something weird and scary appeared from under my bed and it tried dragging me down.” Diamond Tiara informed, feeling scared of the memory.

“Think it could be a demon?” Sunset wondered.

“Maybe. What did the scary thing look like?” Flash asked.

“I’m not sure about what the whole thing looks like, but the arm that grabbed me was really skinny to the bone in red color and has long claws about four to five inches.” Diamond Tiara described.

“Was there anything else you can tell me, like how’d you managed to get away?” Flash wondered.

“Well, when it was grabbing my leg, my parents came in trying to rescue me and turned on the light then the monster arm just let go.” Diamond Tiara explained.

“I wonder if mom knows that demon?” Sonata asked her sisters.

“Probably, couldn’t hurt to ask.” Adagio said.

“Well, guess I know what I’m going to do tonight.” Flash grinned.

“And you know, “Devils Never Cry”.” Diamond Tiara said the password of Devil May Cry.

“Indeed, I do.” Flash nodded.

(Night, Rich Family Mansion)

“Okay, here we are.” Flash said as he and Aria stand in front of the Rich Family home.

“Wow, this family sure likes to live in style.” Aria impressed of the giant house.

“They sure do, and when we’re done with this job. The pay will be big enough that I won’t have to worry about paying the bills for a while.” Flash looked forward to.

“As long as I get some excitement from out of this then I’m all good.” Aria shrugged.

“I’m surprise that you want to go demon hunting consider your mother is a demon herself.” Flash confessed.

“Don’t forget, I’m a siren from another world of talking ponies and magic literally everywhere on a daily basis, and it’s not going to bother me when killing another demon because they’re not like mom.” Aria stated.

“Okay, glad to hear that.” Flash relieved.

“Also, I want to see what my first demon kill is like who I can tell mom and maybe she can give me a few pointers.” Aria added with a grin.

“Okay, I guess that’s okay too.” Flash said with a sweatdrop on the back of his head.

Flash and Aria walk up to the front door and devil hunting boy pressed the doorbell to let the family know they’re here, they waited for a moment until the door opens and a man wearing a black suit show himself.

“Flash Sentry, Aria Blaze, the Rich family have been expecting you two.” The butler said.

“We’re here to get the job done.” Flash smirked.

“They have just finish dinner. Please, right this way.” The butler gestured them to come inside.

They follow the butler to meet up with the family in the dining hall as they look around seeing all the fancy and expensive stuff like a giant portrait of themselves or other things like something from a museum, little statues in the shape a dog and cat, and the hallway looks like it was careful painted by a world-famous artist.

“Talk about living the dream.” Aria commented.

“We are here.” The butler said as he opens the door showing the Rich family together.

“Hi, sorry that we came late. We wanted to come before anyone went to sleep.” Flash greeted.

“Well, the important thing is that you’re here and can help with the monster bed problem.” Filthy Rich smiled.

“Yeah, we got a pretty good idea of what that demon is and got a plan to kill it.” Aria mentioned.

“I’m not sure if I want to put another teen other than Flash in this job.” Spoiled concerned of the teenage girl.

“If you heard anything of what happened at the Battle of the Band, then you worries will be wash away once we show you the head.” Aria smirked.

“Well, if Flash think it’s okay of bringing her here then I don’t see the reason why.” Diamond Tiara shrugged.

“I suppose that would how it shall be. Just as long as you get that monster out of my daughter’s room and out of this house, so my little shiny rock can get her necessary hours of sleep.” Spoiled hugged her daughter into her breasts.

“Mom, you’re embarrassing me.” Diamond Tiara winced.

“Anyway, there is still enough time before bed. Which means we got just enough time to get ready for the late-night party.” Flash said looking at the time on his IPhone.

(Later)

It is now the middle of the night, about five minutes after 2:30 am and the Rich family mansion is all quiet like any other except when it comes to the strange monster under a certain little girl’s bed.

Soon, the monster arm came out from under the bed, and it sense something strong in the room unlike last night as that strong presence draws it toward to the top of the bed, it latches right at the bed to grab the little girl to devour her flesh.

“Hands off, pal.” Flash voice said.

And in an instant, the arm monster growls in pain when the palm was sliced by the sword Rebellion revealing Flash to have been on the bed instead of Diamond Tiara.

“Hope you don’t mind if I give you a hand to Hell.” Flash punned.

The arm monster growls in rage and tries to cut him to pieces with the sharp claws, but Flash parry each strikes and jump off the bed.

“Aria, now!” Flash shouted.

Aria came out of the closest with Diamond Tiara who was hiding in there with her for the plan to work, and the siren girl charged in grabbing the lower half arm as she transformed into her demon-pony up form. The monster arm started moving around wildly trying to shake the newcomer off though Aria’s grip is stronger and wouldn’t let go, she gains control as she forces the arm down and began to pull the arm.

“Now let us see what you really look like under there.” Aria pulled harder; Flash quickly aided her in the pulling on the monster arm.

Flash and Aria kept on pulling as they start to see the shoulder and they can hear the growling the monster under the bed getting louder, meaning the monster doesn’t want to come out which makes them want to force it to come out more. The two combined their strength with a little more demonic energy to enhance their strength, with one last pull the monster arm became now a whole demon cat creature.

“Just as mom says, it’s a Bed-Cat. They sneak under the bed of victims and kill them at night, and they will also go after anyone else who happens to be living in the same place.” Aria explained, remember what Nevan told them at home before coming here.

“And now we got it out for some play time.” Flash excited as he points his sword at the demon.

Then Flash notice something about the giant cat demon’s face, about how oddly shape it is something he just remember about a certain joke he heard from Pinkie Pie and decided to go for it.

“Now that’s a banana.” Flash joked and laughed a little, Aria also laughs.

“Seriously, now you’re doing that stupid line?” Aria asked still laughing.

“When the opportunity comes for it, I got to take it while it’s still there.” Flash pointed out.

The Bed-Cat demon didn’t like how those two are mocking fun of its head and roars in rage as it wants to kill them dozens of times over and charge at them.

“Lights on, Princess!” Aria shouted as she and Flash dodge the claw attack.

Right on cue, Diamond Tiara jump out of the closest and flip the switch on a wired-box that turned on a large spotlight shining its light right onto the Bed-Cat demon causing its body to burn.

“And just like that, this demon is not a big fan of sunlight or any light for that matter.” Flash tossed the black gun at Aria as she catches it.

The Bed-Cat demon tried to retreat back under the bed, but Aria and Flash each jump at it from each side of the bed before it could react and they gave it a double wimmie making it stun, and they grab the shoulders to pin the demon down.

“Care to do the honors?” Flash asked.

“Gladly.” Aria smirked as they point the guns at the head of the Bed-Cat.

“Jackpot.” Aria said before they shot the demon right in the head, killing it for good.

“And the job is done.” Flash said proudly.

“Thank you very much, now me and my family can sleep peacefully again.” Diamond Tiara thanked.

“All in a day’s work to keep the innocent safe.” Flash patted her on the head.

“Not bad for going out on the field, I should think about coming with you more offend.” Aria amazed of how demon hunting is like doing it in person.

“Yeah, we make a pretty good team.” Flash nodded.

“With that out of the way.” Diamond Tiara jumped on her bed and instantly went to sleep causing Flash and Aria to laugh together.

KO a new chapter is done and hope you all enjoy it!

Another day, or night in this case, of taking down a demon to protect the people of Canterlot City and this time Aria came along to take down a cat demon that was hiding under the bed of Diamond Tiara and saved her by the light, literally.
