Two months have passed since Sunrise have finished his formation, and the young Alicorn started to be impatient. He was convinced he could learn more, and decided to find his life purpose in a travel beyond Equestria.

“Are you sure you want to leave the castle, Sunny?” said Celestia (she’s sad)

“It’s hard for you two, i know, you have done so much for me, but don’t worry, i’ll come back, i promise.”

Celestia hug his student, Starswirl give to him a present; “Take that with you Sunrise,” he said. (the object was a photo of them)

"I’ll always keep this photo with me,” he said.

”Be careful, Sunrise, say Celestia, the lands you will travel in are dangerous...”

Many days have passed since Sunrise have left Canterlot, and was in a place called Badlands. The Alicorn decide to take a break.

”I am hungry, thought sunrise, maybe i should have took more food...”

He hear a scream. ”Somepony is in danger, i have to save him!!!” Thought Sunrise.

Sunrise flew to the sky for a better vision of the land, he discover that these screams seem to came from the West. He teleport himself to the place where the screams came from.

“What the hay...? I used a teleportation spell? Cool!.” he said.

He look around him and see a temple. He decide to enter in.The temple was dark and creepy, but Sunrise was decided to find what this temple contain... after a few minutes, he arrive in a room illuminated with torches and horrible decorations.

” What is that place,” he thought.

He see a strange chest in the center of the room, a black, metallic chest, with a skull-shaped lock.

”No!, don’t open it! This chest have a skull on his top and he is black... he said to himself.

Sunrise decide to examine the metal chest and touch it; the chest open, he look inside and see nothing. Suddenly, a shadow appear in front of him and this shadow take the form of the Alicorn.

“Thank you for saving me!”, said the shadow, with a creepy voice and a evil smile.

“Who are you and why did you take my appearance?” ask Sunrise.

The shadow laugh and float around him; “i am you, Sunrise, i am you, i am the darkness in your soul.”

Sunrise throw to the shadow a fire ball, but he avoid it.

“You can’t hurt me, i am your shadow, Sunrise Freezer, i am...Night Freezer!!! and today, you and me are now one!!!”
