The enemy pack was caught off guard and were barely able to face us before we crashed into them in a flurry of claws and teeth. Several died before they were able to get their bearings and fight back, only for their claws to bounce off the armor and there teeth to break on it. I tackled one wolf who had one of mine pinned and slashed at it with my sword, decapitating it cleanly. There was only one left now, the leader, a big brute who was almost twice the size of the former Alpha of my pack. My wolves made a circle around him as I approached.

"You think you can defeat me you ape?!" He yelled in rage.

Instead of answering, I charged him with my sword and slid under him. I stabbed the blade upwards as I slid beneath him, slicing clean through him. Despite this fatal injury, and the amount of sap blood seeping out of it, the Alpha turned towards me and tried to bite me. I responded by slicing off his lower jaw, which immediately collapsed onto the ground in a pile of wood splinters. He backed up, and pounced at me. I ran underneath him and sliced off his right foreleg. He collapsed onto the ground in a heap, and I decided to end this. I stretched out my hand, and began to absorb his life force. Less than a minute later, he was nothing more than a large pile of wood scraps.

My pack cheered and applauded my victory, and I bowed. We went back to our den in a good mood. It was still early in the evening so I decided it would be a good idea to head to Ponyville now. He decided to bring two of his wolves with him for protection and left the rest in the den. Before leaving, I absorbed about half of the souls my pack captured and stored the rest in case I have to resurrect myself. After an hour of traveling through the forest, we finally arrived. I saw no ponies around at the moment, so we snuck around to the Twilight's castle. Still seeing no pony around, we quickly entered. After a few minutes of searching, we found the library. I know I should probably introduce myself to Twilight, but I knew that if I did that, then I would never get a chance to find out about the war. As I navigated the neatly organized sections, I found what I was looking for. Several history books on the Griffon-Pony war were lined neatly on the shelves. My wolves positioned themselves so they would see anyone approaching and warn me. It only took a few minutes to read through them, but what confused me was the fact that none of them mentioned any atrocities committed during the war. Sure it mentioned that ponies and griffons died, but not once did it mention any massacres or unjust killings. I began to suspect that someone was hiding something, so I decided to use my magic. I closed my eyes and imagined going back to the time of the war, to when the war ended, and where the treaty was signed. I knew that had been in Canterlot since I read it. I found myself in the throne room where Princess Celestia was sitting on her throne reading a scroll while the Griffon emperor stood before her. I quickly read the scroll and saw it was the treaty. It stated that both sides would immediately cease and desist all hostile activities, give back any captured territory and release all POW's. But it was the last term that caught my attention. It said that any records of any atrocities committed by the griffons would be burned and never be written down.

"I think this treaty would benefit both of our nations greatly. I agree to these terms. I hope that once tensions have died down, ponies and griffons can be friends." Celestia said.

"Thank you princess, I knew that you would do what is best for your little ponies." He said with a hint of smugness.

I didn't hear the rest of the conversation because I stood there shocked by this. I couldn't believe it, Celestia had let them get away with those kinds of things. I had to know what the other things they did were, so I travelled back to the first one. It was after large battle as the field littered with bodies indicated. The griffons were dragging the pony corpses to large bonfire and burned to a crisp. Then I saw a large number of pony prisoners chained up nearby. There had to of been about two hundred of them in total. Most were sporting injuries varying from cuts and bruises to missing libs and broken bones.

Then a large griffon in golden armor appeared flanked by several guards, he must be the commander. He approched one particular stallion who looked like he had been tortured. His face was deformed and covered in cuts and bruises, one leg looked broken, another looked to have been cut off, one of his ears looked was also gone.

"You refused to give us information, so now your soldiers will pay the price." He said.

The stallion looked at them fearfully as griffons began to drag the prisoners towards the bonfire. I turned away and tried to ignore the screams of agony from them as they were burned alive. I skipped to the next event. This time a small pony town was being occupied by the griffon forces, and all of the civilians were crowded in the center, surrounded. A group of ponies were pushed to the ground in front of them. There was three stallions, two mares, a little filly and two colts. They were forced into a neat and orderly line in front of the crowd.

"These fools thought that they could escape, that they could defy us, so we will make an example of them for anyone else who thinks they can disobey us." One griffon said.

A griffon carrying a large axe approached the group, who were forced onto their needs. He approached one of the colts, and raised his axe. Having seen enough, he moved on to the next event. This time, griffon forces were surrounding a pony military fort. At first everything seemed fine, then they pulled several strange canisters and many began to flap their wings in the direction of the fort.

"No, it couldn't be-

The canisters were opened and a noxious yellow smoke poured out of them, immediately rushing towards the fort. I had to know what it did, so I forced myself to enter the fort and watch. The ponies had been caught off guard by the yellow mist, and were unprepared for it when it arrived. At first, they just coughed and choked, then they began to hack up blood and their fur began to fall of. Soon they were bleeding out of their eyes, nose, and ears. Their tortured cries filled my ears and I moved on. Three more scenes like these played out before me, three times my ears were filled with cries of agony and sorrow, and my rage grew. I was thankful that I had asked for immunity to going insane and being traumatized, otherwise I'd be a babbling mess by now.

As I returned back to the present, I took a deep breath, thinking about everything that Celestia had covered up and hidden. The griffins did those kinds of and what does Celestia do? Forgive them and become their fucking friends! And they got away with things like this pretty much scot-free! I was going to make them pay for those horrible acts, and make Celestia pay for forgiving them. But first, I was going to have to build up my strength, then I remembered I still had an entire inventory of stuff I could reek havoc with. I grinned as I imagined the damage that my mini nukes could cause. Suddenly one of my wolves let out a low pitched growl, warning me of someone approaching. I sat up, replaced the books and moved to meet whoever it was. I was surprised to see it was Starlight Glimmer, but not as as surprised she was. She charged up her horn for an attack, but I quickly held up my hands.

"Wait! I don't mean any harm Starlight." I said quickly.

Using her name was risky, but it was a measured risk that could keep her from doing something stupid. It seemed to work because her horn stopped glowing and I sighed in relief.

"Who are you and how do you know my name!" She demanded with slight nervousness.

I couldn't blame her for being a little afraid, my armor was quite intimidating.

"My name is Jack, and I came here to research a certain topic. What I found is the opposite of what I had hoped for." I explained. "As for knowing your name, I actually know a lot of things. You are Princess Twilight Sparkle's student, after you friend Sunburst got his cutie mark years ago and left to attend Celestia's school for gifted unicorns, you became to afraid to make another friend for fear a cutie mark would take them away too. Then you took over your village and took away everyones cutie marks and fed them lie after lie about "equality". Then Twilight and her friends arrived and you took their cutie marks. But they revealed you to be a fraud and that you still had your cutie mark. They freed the town from your tyranny and you ran away. Later you took a time travel spell written by Starswirl The bearded and revised it. Using it to travel back in time, you stopped Rainbow Dash from performing her sonic rainboom, preventing Twilight and the others from getting their cutie mark connection. And in doing so you nearly destroyed Equestria."

She stood there shocked, but I wasn't done yet.

"After Twilight convinced you that you didn't have to seek revenge, you became her student and friend. Later on, you helped with growing rift between Celestia and Luna. Then you also grouped up with three other reformed villains, Trixie, Discord, and Thorax when the Changelings kidnapped and replaced Twilight and the others, Celestia, Luna, Cadence, and Shining Armor. Together you all infiltrated Queen Chrysalis's hive and you realized that to defeat Chrysalis, you had to take her army away so you and Thorax showed them that they can give love freely instead of taking it. This lead to the Changelings all reforming except for Chrysalis, who you offered friendship to, who refused and ran away. You are very powerful Starlight Glimmer, not just in magic, but also intellect that rivals even Twilight, whose knowledge resides more in magical theory than planning, manipulation, strategizing, not to mention she is a lot more close minded than you. If you wanted, you could take her down, even though she is an Alicorn." I finished.

After several minutes of stunned silence, she cleared her throat.

"You seem to know a lot about me, yet I know nothing about you." She said shakily.

She was very afraid now, and that fear was making me stronger. Not strong enough to beat her in a direct confrontation, but it was still a relief.

"I only recently arrived in this world but have already learned many things, terrible things that have been hidden and covered up. Before I came here, I knew quite a lot, and now I realize that this world is not as innocent as it seems." I said with venom.

She shuddered at my tone "What kind of things?" She asked fearfully.

"Ever heard of the Griffon-Pony War? Well it turns out it was much more violent and bloody than you know. More so than any pony else know except for one. Princess Celestia. She has kept things secret from you all that should they come to light, would incite rebellion and anarchy, especially among the nobility." I continued.

She was about to say something, but suddenly the doors of the library flew open.

"Starlight! Did you find the boo-" She stopped when she saw me.

She charged up her horn and teleported Starlight somewhere out of sight and fired a shot at me. I dodged and began to think. I had to stop this fight before anything bad happened. I was considering jumping out a window when a pink barrier slammed me to the ground, and I was surround by Twilight's telekinetic grip. I tried to speak, only to find I couldn't, so i tried to stand. I slowly began to make progress, as I got onto my knees, then one foot, then the other. As I did this Twilight began to panic and quickly grabbed a quill and paper in her magic. She furiously scribbled down a quick message and yelled for Spike loudly.

A minute later he entered the library, but stood in shock when he saw me.

"Spike! Send this letter to Celestia quick! I can't hold it off for long!" She panted with strain.

I began to growl with frustration as I was forced back to my knees, then I stood up again and began to advance towards her. She began to back up towards the door, so I forced my hand up, and enveloped the door in my magical grip, slamming them shut and then blocking them with a large bookshelf. Spike grabbed the letter and burned it with his green fire.

In Canterlot Castle, Princess Celestia was sitting on her balcony enjoying a cup of tea and a considerably large slice of cake. Suddenly, in a burst of flame, a letter appeared in front of her. Grabbing it in her golden magic, she read it.

Dear Celestia

There is some sort of monster in my castle. I am trying to contain it, but I can't hold it off for very long, and it is resisting my telekinesis no matter how much power I put into it! Please send help!

Twilight Sparkle

Celestia quickly reread the letter, then stood up straight.

"Guards!" She yelled.

Two guards burst through her door and saluted her.

"Princess! What is wrong?" One of them asked.

"Princess Twilight is in trouble, she fighting some sort of monster in her castle. Get a platoon of guards and send them to Ponyville immediately. I will go on ahead to ensure her safety." She ordered.

Before they could say anything, she charged her horn and teleported away, leaving the dumbstruck guards standing there.
Both of them eyed the half eaten cake slice, then looked at each other.

"I won't tell any pony if you don't." One of them said.

"Tell any pony what?" The other responded.

Meanwhile in the Castle of Friendship

Spike was frantically trying to push the bookshelf out of the way while he and Twilight were backed up against it as I advanced. I wasn't going to hurt them, much. I felt it would hurt Celestia a good bit if her prized student were injured. By this point, Twilights magic had weakened enough that I could talk, and I was now advancing at while still slow pace, much faster one. I was only ten feet way by now, but then she summoned a barrier and used push me back, causing me to skid back another ten.

"Don't worry, I won't hurt you too much Twilight Sparkle. But this could really hurt Celestia to know that she was the cause of her precious student to get hurt." I said gleefully.

She seemed confused by this.

"What are you taking about!? What do you have against her?" She asked with dread.

The fear of both of them was very rejuvenating, to the point that I was steadily gaining strength. 15 feet away.

"A reckoning is coming for her, and justice will be served to her and those she conspired with. They will all pay for what they did!" I roared.

Ten feet away.

She tried to push me back again, but I just absorbed the weak barrier. I wasn't playing anymore.

"What do you mean? Please, whatever has gotten you so angry, I'm sure we could talk it out!" She said pleadingly.

Three feet away. As a last attempt, she used her magic to push me forward, and that combined with the force I was using to move forward sent me flying over the two of them and into the door. I shook off the impact and turned to see her running with Spike on her back towards a window as fast as she could in her exhausted state. I quickly stood up and gave chase, determined to catch her. I quickly closed the ground, but she jumped through the window before I could grab her. She spread her wings to fly away, only for my red magic aura to grab her and pull her back towards me. She struggled in my magical grip, as I pulled her face to face with me.

"Remember this day Twilight Sparkle. For today, you pay only a small amount of the price that Celestia will have to pay when I get her. Today, you will realize that not even she is as kind and lovable as you think. You have thought that while she may have faults, she is guilty of worse things than you can imagine." I told her menacingly, making her fear reach even greater heights.

I could have done this sooner, but I wanted her fear to feed me and make me even stronger. Before I could drop her though, I saw a bright golden light in the corner of my eye caught my attention. Realizing what it was, I placed Twilight in front of it. The blast knocked both of us out of the library onto the ground below. I quickly regained my bearing to see Celestia herself checking Twilight's injuries. I quickly stood up and drew my sword, charging my magic in my left hand. This drew her attention, and she turned to face me.

"Surrender now fiend or pay the price!" She said angrily.

I stared at her, then I began to laugh.

"Pay the price huh! No Sunbutt, it is you that will pay the price for what you have done. I know your secrets. Probably not all of them, but one very big and important one. I wonder what else you've hidden from everyone, including your own sister." I snorted angrily.

This seemed to confuse and anger her, as her horn began to charge. But despite her initial attack, I was even stronger now because I was feeding of the love Celestia had for her student and her other little ponies. Not to mention her anger was strong, and that was making me stronger than ever. By this point I could hold my own in a fight against Starlight, but still not beat her. I couldn't defeat her yet though, I wanted to make a point, and this wouldn't work, I needed a large audience, preferably all of Equestria, if not all of Equis. So I decided to retreat for now. I hadn't learned how to teleport yet, so I decided to do the next best thing. I charged her head on, my sword at the ready. What she didn't expect me to do was leap over her and grab Twilight. I could have just kept running, but I needed to keep her from following. She took a step towards me, and I raised my sword to Twilight's neck.

"One more step and she dies!" I threatened.

She stopped and stared at me angrily.

"Now I will slowly back away, and you will not intervene, every step you take in my direction will result in one of her legs being cut off. Cooperate and she will be returned unharmed." I continued.

I hated to do this, I really did, but I needed to get out of here alive, and this was the only way. I slowly backed up, and entered the Everfree Forest. I left her not far from the tree line and bolted towards the Castle of the Two Sisters. I needed to lead her in the wrong direction to avoid being tracked later. About halfway, I used my magic to cover my tracks, and switched directions. After two hours, I arrived back at the den. Fortunately, my two wolves I had brought with me had come back as well, knowing they couldn't help me no matter how much they wanted too. I was hungry, so I was very thankful that they had managed to gather several rabbits for me to eat. I lit a fire with my magic and cooked them. After eating them I summoned and king size bed and laid down to sleep. Today had been very hectic, and I needed to rest after that ordeal.

Alright, I hope you enjoyed this chapter. Sorry if it may seem a bit rushed, but I wanted to get to the first confrontation as soon as possible, and this was a good opportunity to do it, right after I find out what Celestia hid, when the anger and pain is still fresh and burning hot. Let me know of any corrections I should make, possible villain names for "me", and any other things you want to say.
