Friend or Foe?

Who is this stallion?


Twilight's POV

Since the Storm King returned, he has been a too dangerous threat, but I knew that with my friends, we could beat him, after they rescued me, the Storm King's wand was out of his grasp and stuck in a stainglass, but without a host, the wand's power went out of control and created a tornado, me and my friends were batteling against this powerful to get the wand but then.

*BOOM*

"YOOOOOOOLOOOOOOOOO" Somepony screamed.

The pony who said that broke through the stainglass window and picked up the wand stopping the wind and tornado, we were so shocked by this we couldn't even move, then I noticed something on the wand, the ancient stone that is use to canalyse the power to control a storm was broken, the whole stick was broken.

"What?" He said, and then he looked at the wand and noticed that it was broken, I was expecting him to be in horror but instead.

"Umm... Oops?" He said sheepishly, 'Oops? OOPS? THAT'S ALL HE COULD SAY AFTER BREAKING ONE OF THE MOST DANGEROUS WEAPON IN ALL OF EQUESTRIA???' I thought, it was so frustrating seeing the wand in the hand of a civilian, but the civilian in question was an idiot, wich made the frustration worst.

"Is he okay?" He said while pointing at the Storm King, but he was pointing with the wand, then the Storm King was shot by lighting coming out of the wand, but the stallion didn't even seem bothered by this. 'Not even does he realise what he did, he doesn't even realise that he is talking about one of the most dangerous entities in Equestria. I tought tiredly, this pony was a true idiot, my friends were shocked too, I bet RD is thinking of a thousand ways to beat his flank.

"It's getting awkward at this point." He said, that did it, he is so stupid I broke.

"WHO THE HELL ARE YOU???" I screamed, he didn't even move and did a sheepish smile.

"Um, I'm Steve?" He said sheepishly, this is so breaking my mind, first he burst in out of nowhere, then he break the wand, and then he shoot the Storm King without even batting an eye.

Then Tempest shot a powerful spell at him, I noticed that this spell was lethal and could kill anypony who doesn't have an affinity to magic.

"Hey! What did you do that for?" The stallion said coming out of the fog made by the spell, unscratched. 'That's not possible, the power behind that spell could even harm an Alicorn! And he just came out unscratched?. I tought furiously, this pony is not a normal pony, I can't even see him properly because of the battle I had with the Storm King.

"H-H-How is that possible?" I heard Tempest say, it was the same with me, don't worry Tempest, but then he was coming towards me, me and the girls were ready to take him on, but instead, he lended me the wand.

"Here, you want this stick? Take it." He said,'He thinks it's just a stick? Who is this guy? I tought while taking the 'stick', then I wanted to ask why he did what he did, but I was cutted by a loud roar coming from the rumbles, it was the Storm King, he was rushing to Steve as he say, it's the end of him.

But then, some weird looking things came out of nowhere and were rushing to the Storm King, it looked like, wings? But then, the 'wings' shotted a beam of blinding light to the Storm King, after the light hitted the Storm King, he was turned to stone, then the 'wings' that were still rushing after the Storm King got to his statue, and threw it out of the balconny, breaking the statue upon contact with the far away ground. Then, Steve came towards us.

"Welp, I'm Steve and I'm the Lord of Enlightening Darkness."


Lord of Enlightening Dakness? What the hell is that? So he means that HE is a Lord? Lord of Enlightening Darkness?

But then, after looking at him, he was pretty normal, his clothes were weird but looked like it was made from an expensive material, his jeans were black and made from something I don't even know, his shirt was white and looked like it was made of silk, then his face, it was a perfect face, a beauty of this world, but it wasn't that that troubled me, his eyes, they were totally different from each other, the right one was completly white and I swear I could see light emitting from it, the left eye was terrifying, it had a cat like pupil and a scelera that faded from white to green to complete darkness, the darkness of his eye was so overwhelming it was like I looked at the Core of the very Darkness that surrounds everything, the Void.

"Um, helloooo? What's your name?" He asked, I didn't even noticed him waving his hand on front of me, I blushed i embarrasment.

"I-I'm Twilight Sparkle, Princess of Friendship." I said a little flustered, he looked like he was thinking for a bit, and I swear I heard him mumble 'Yep, that's definitely The Twilight Sparkle'.

"What was that?" I said raising an eyebrow. He looked at me and smiled.

"Oh nothing, it is just and honor to me The Twilight Sparkle in person." He said while bowing graciously, I bet he knows that I don't like being treated as a Royalty and that he does this to tease me. But when I looked at the girls, they look a little bit more relaxed, Rarity was smiling madly when she saw him bow like this, RD gagged and AJ didn't even look, Fluttershy smiled and Pinkie... Was being Pinkie.

"O-O-Oh, please, raise your head, you don't need to treat me like royalty." I said still flustered, he looked at me with a raised eyebrow.

"Nonsense, you are a Princess, and one that saved Equestria as much as Celestia and Luna did, it is only appropriate to bow in front of such a pony." He said while bowing again, I blushed from the praise and Rarity fainted, RD and AJ were playing cards on a rock, Fluttershy blushed a little and nodded at me, and Pinkie, was gone? Oh no.

"HISTEVEIMPINKIEPIEANDILOVETOPARTYANDYOUDOYOULOVETOPARTY?" Pinkie said while poping in front of Steve.

"Hello Pinkie Pie, it depends on my mood if I love parties or not." He said, how did he kept up with Pinkie Pie?

"Oh okay! Then I'll make sure your in the mood for parties!" She said while going to RD who was sleeping.

"Twilight! What happened?" I heard somepony said, I turned to look at who it was, and it was Princess Celestia with Luna and Cadence.

"Celestia!" I said while running to her, the girls followed me and we started to hug the Princesses.

"Please Twilight, what happened here? And who is this pony?" Celestia asked while pulling off the hug.

"Well, me and the girls were fighting the Storm King but then, this pony named Steve bursted throught the stainglass and broke the wand, he shotted the Storm King on accident and sended him in a wall, after that, he was shotted by Tempest with a deadly spell but he came out unscratched, then he lended me the wand and before I could say something, the Storm King came rushing to Steve but he didn't move, instead, weird looking wings rushed to the Storm King and shotted a beam of light that turned him into stone, then the wings threw him out of the balconny and the statue broke." I explained and then panted, Celestia semmed taken back from this, then she went over Steve with the other Princesses, then bowed.

"Thank you for saving us and Equestria." She said, I was shocked that Princess Celestia, THE Princess Celestia was bowing to somepony, not only her, but the other Princesses too.

"Please raise your heads, I am merely a little Lord compared to you majesties." He said while bowing graciously. It made me want to choke him because I knew he was making this little scene on purpose. Then, I saw something I wouldn't even imagine arrive, Princess Celestia and Luna, blushed.

"Oh my, what a gentlecolt, please tell us, what Lord are you?" Celestia said a little flustered, it was unbelievable, this stupid stallion managed to make two Princesses blush just after they met? What is this dark magic?

"I am Steve, The Lord of Enlightening Darkness." He said while straightening up.

"The Lord of Enlightening Darkness? Does this have to do with your particular eyes?" Luna asked curiously, it wasn't weird for her to be that way, she is practically a child compared to Celestia.

"Yes, you see, my eyes are the Cores of both the Embodiement of Light ad Darkness." He said, 'The embodiement of Light and Darkness? Him?, I thought, then, wings of unparalleled beauty started to form behind him, they were six pairs of them, then, horrifying tentacles started to slither up his body, now it looked like the Light protecting Darkness, or Darkness protecting Light, it was a true balance, it was, Harmony.

It is these little things that I can control, of course, I can also control both Light and Darkness.

He said, no, he didn't even move his mouth, he then did telepathy? No, it's like, he was talking in every dimension, it was, overwhelming. It was so terrifying, we all panted, choked, tried to get some air. When I looked at his figure, it was too much, it was like seeing the Sun in front of you, not even Celestia gave that much of a feel, and it's not just the burning sensation, there was a feeling of loneliness too, like there was no Light able to save us. It was too much.

Then he made the overwhelming sense of helplesness go away, he made the tentacles and wings disappear. We all panted.

"Foul *pant* Beast *pant*! *pant*What *pant* did you *pant* do to us?" Luna exclaimed, she tried to charged a powerful spell but the recovery from such a show was taking too much energy.

"Sorry, I simply let out a portion of my power, I didn't even think that it was going to be that bad, guess I will need to restrain my powers." He said regretfully while helping everypony getting up.

"Oh, there's no time for that! We have a music show to watch!" He said while running to the city center.

"Wait! You cannot go!" I screamed at him while chasing him, that idiot will mess things up!
