Trixie has settled down in Ponyville in the Dazzlings house for the time being. She had been excepted into the town by everypony with warm smiles and helping hooves. Most recently, she helped Sam defeat a monster that could absorb magic. The monster was black with a yellow back.

One day, Twilight, Sunset, Aurora and Scarlet ran into Rainbow Dash or rather she almost ran into Twilight again. She crash-landed just in front of Twilight trying to pull off another hard trick.

“New trick Rainbow?” Twilight asked her wryly.

“Is it that obvious?” she retorted. She stood back up and fluttered her wings clearing off any dirt and grass that got on. “So how’s Sam doing?”

“Not well, this morning, he woke up with the same nightmare,” Twilight said.

“Jeez,” Rainbow said wincing a little bit, “Wonder what’s causing him to have these nightmares? How about what Princess Celestia found, could that help him?”

“Well, she and Luna are making slow progress, but nothing definitive has shown up yet. They even gotten the other Celestial Guardians to help.”

“I hope something comes soon. Well, give him my best wishes,” she said taking off again. The three mares and children then continued their trek through town. Eventually they found themselves in front of Sugarcube Corner. When they walked in, they saw Fluttershy at the counter talking with Pinkie. The Cake twins weren’t present in the room at the time.
“Hey Twilight! Hi Aura! Hi Sunny! Hey Scarlet!” Pinkie said waving at them.

“Hey Pinkie. Hey Fluttershy,” Sunset said to them.

“Hello Twilight, hello Sunset, hello Aurora, hello Scarlet” Fluttershy replied, “How’s Sam doing?”

“Well,” Twilight said looking around making sure nopony else could hear, “He woke up this morning with another nightmare vision.”

“Oh goodness!” Fluttershy said surprised, “Is he alright?”

“He said he’s fine,” Aurora said, “but his anger issues are getting harder to control.”

“Where is Sam anyway?” Fluttershy asked.

“Maybe he, Trixie and the Dazzlings were shopping for things for Trixie room in Manehatten and a monster attacked but Sam managed to defeat it and gain it’s D.N.A,” Pinkie rambled.

“Actually, he did Pinkie,” came Trixie’s voice from the door with Sam and the Dazzlings standing next to her.
“How did you know?” Sam asked.

“Just a hunch,” Pinkie said shrugging then grinning.

“Well anyway,” Adagio said, “the monster was red and blue with no eyes and wings.”

“Yeah,” Sam said smiling, “And this is what he looks like.”

Sam showed the rest what the monster looked like.

“I’m glad to hear you’re feeling better Sam,” I said, “Thanks for looking after him girls.”

“It was nothing Sparkle,” Aria said, “Well, we’ve gotta get back to the house. See y’all later. And Ah hope things work out for you too, Sam,” she added while Sam gave them all a hug. They hugged him back, and the four mares then walked out of Sugarcube Corner.

“Bye you four,” Sam said waving to them. He then turned back around and looked at Twilight and the rest. “Where’s Spike?” he asked.

“He’s at the boutique with Rarity,” Scarlet said. She then whispered in his ear, “He’s got a bit of a crush on her if you know what I mean.” Sam giggled a little bit after hearing that.

“Are you sure you’re alright Sam?” Fluttershy asked looking down at him.

“I’m sure,” he said nodding, “I just hope Princess Celestia and Princess Luna find something to help me. Maybe even healing these scars would help a lot.”

“So do I, Sammy,” Pinkie said patting his shoulder. Just then the door opened up, with the bell ringing.

“Hi, Welcome to Sugarcube Corner!” Pinkie said greeting who came in. Twilight turn and see the visitors, one was a black unicorn stallion with a grey mane and tail, reptilian eyes, and a cutie mark that was a radioactivity symbol. The other was a little red unicorn stallion with a redder mane and tail and a yellow horn that curved up, he had slightly different reptilian eyes and a cutie mark of a hole.

“Ah Miss Sparkle,” he said, “How fortunate we’ll find you here.”

“Godzilla and Baragon!” Aurora and Scarlet said surprised to see the members of the Equestria Defenders.
“You mean they’re some of the monsters turned pony you told me about...” Sam started clinging to Twilight’s foreleg.
“Yeah, they are,” Scarlet interrupted, “But remember, they’re the good guys.” Sam nodded, but still clung to Twilight’s foreleg.

“What brings you here Godzilla and Baragon?” I asked him.

“Well,” Godzilla started, “Princess Celestia has been having us Equestria Defenders help in the research for a spell that could help your human friend release his anger, and me and Baragon came to do a magic scan on him, so we know how much we’re dealing with. But were here in Sugarcube Corner because Baragon wanted some cupcakes for the road and our friends”.

“Yep” Baragon finished.

“Ah, I see,” Twilight said. She then looked down at Sam and nuzzled his cheek. “It’s okay Sam,” she said to him, “although he can become a monster, Godzilla isn’t evil, I promise.” Sam looked up at her and nodded, but still kept close to Twilight. Godzilla then trotted up and lit up his horn, pointed it down at Sam, and started moving his head slowly up and down his small form. After a few minutes, he produced a scroll and quill and wrote down some notes.

“Okay, that should be everything we need,” he said, “Hopefully we should be ready for you and your friends to come to Canterlot soon. Now, Baragon what cupcakes should we get for everyone?” They then trotted over to the counter. Soon enough though, Aurora, Scarlet, Sam, Sunset, and Twilight walked out and back to the library. It was getting pretty late in the day, and they would need to rest up. Spike was there when they came back. He was feeding his old pet, Peewee as well as the children’s dragons. Spike had managed to find the nest Peewee came from and returned him to it. Peewee often came back to visit every now and again.

“Hey there guys,” Spike greeted, “You feeling better Sam?”

“Yeah, I’m feeling much better Spike,” Sam said. He then saw Peewee in Spike’s open claws. “Who’s that?”

“This is my old pet baby Phoenix, Peewee,” Spike replied. Peewee finished pecking the birdseed in Spike’s claws and looked up at Sam. He then flapped towards him as Sam held opened his hands for Peewee to land in. He held the baby phoenix up to his face, then Peewee leaned in and nuzzled Sam’s cheek.

“Wow,” Sam said softly so not to startle Peewee, “He feels so warm.”

“Yeah, Phoenixes are known to be warmer than other birds. I think he likes you,” Spike said. Sam giggled a little at Peewee’s nuzzle. Then he had any idea.

Sam placed Peewee on the table gently, and using his Omnitrix, he turned into Litra. Peewee was curious at this and flew down to have a better look. Thing is about Litra, is that she is one of Sam’s few female monsters, others being Eleking and Agira. Due to Litra being a phoenix, she also had a warm temperature. Peewee was so interested, he started to snuggle up to Litra. It was the cutest thing to been seen.

“It’s nice to meet you too Peewee,” Sam/Litra said scratching him under his head with her beak. Peewee cheeped happily and flapped over to the small nest Spike made for him. They eventually all had dinner and got themselves ready for bed. Sam was in the bathroom getting his pyjamas on. He came out again in his pyjamas ready for a good night sleep.

“Hey Twilight,” Aurora said, “Can you read the story Mama Luigi?”

“What’s that?” Sam asked as he climbed into bed and snuggled in between Aurora and Scarlet.

“It’s the story where baby dinosaur called Yoshi thinks his mother was a green plumber named Luigi,” she replied, “It’s really funny.”

“I think that’s a great idea Aura,” Twilight told her. She then pulled out the book she suggested and began reading.

Sam was walking by myself, the next day after breakfast with his jacket on, hiding the scars on his torso. He was glad to hear that Princess Celestia and Princess Luna were almost done with the spell they found. It was pretty quiet while he was walking, but he then heard voices. They didn’t sound like happy voices, they sounded angry.

“You went and tattled on us didn’t you?!” It was Diamond Tiara’s voice. “Thanks to you, Silver Spoon and I got detention for a whole week!”

“B...B... But...” said another voice. It sounded upset. It was Dinky! She went and told Miss Cheerilee about Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon saying mean things about Derpy.

“Quiet blank flank!” Diamond said to Dinky, “You’ll pay for this!”

Dinky was right; they were getting meaner. Sam had to hurry and help her. He promised her he would.

When Sam saw them, Dinky was down on the ground with her eyes filling up with tears. Diamond Tiara was looking down at her, angry. Silver Spoon was there too.

“LEAVE HER ALONE!!!” Sam yelled at Diamond Tiara. She, Silver Spoon, and Dinky looked up and saw him running toward them.

“Oh look,” Diamond Tiara said as Sam stood between her and Dinky, “The human freak wants to get tough. Beat it kid. This has nothing to do with you.”

“Yes it does!” Sam snapped back at her, “Dinky told me first about you saying bad things about her mum. I’m the one who said she should tell her mum or Miss Cheerilee about it. Why are you two so mean anyway?” For some reason Silver Spoon looked away, thinking about something, but Diamond Tiara didn’t.

“Why should I tell you?” she said to him getting in his face. Sam didn’t back up though, he kept standing there, weirdly his emotions won’t building up which was a good thing too. “So, it’s your fault that Silver Spoon and I are in detention.”

“No, it’s yours for saying mean things about Dinky’s mum,” Sam said back.

“I knew you’d give me trouble the minute I laid eyes on you,” Diamond said, “You’re gonna pay for having Dinky getting us in trouble.” She then pushed him back. Dinky was still behind him, and Sam tripped backwards over her, and he then felt a cold breeze blow on his stomach. Sam realized his suit had revealed his chest. Sam quickly pulled it back down, but it was too late. Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon had seen his scarred chest. Diamond Tiara had a mean grin on her face, but Silver Spoon looked as if she had just seen a ghost.

“Well, well, well,” Diamond Tiara said trotting over, “Finally agreed with me about being a freak, huh? Decided to end you suffering or something?”

Sam didn’t say anything because his eyes started filling up this time. Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon had found out his secret, and they were going to tease him for it. Diamond Tiara had already started, but Silver Spoon just stood there. She didn’t move at all. It looked like her face had changed to a sad one. Sam wondered why, but Diamond Tiara’s voice spoke up again.

“You’ll never fit in with us, weirdo,” she said, “You know why? Because you don’t belong here.”

Then something snapped, Sam stood up slowly, his eyes were red again, as Diamond Tiara was laughing Sam’s hands shot toward her neck and Sam started to strangle her.

“You don’t know what I’ve been through,” Sam said but it didn’t sound like him, “every day I would wake up to see my scars still there, all the bullying and abuse I went through. YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT HELL I WENT THROUGH YOU LITTLE PINK BITCH.”

“SAM PLEASE STOP!!!” It was Dinky. Now she was telling him to stop, “please stop”.

Sam snapped out of his fit of rage, he looked around to see a crowd had gathered around. Sam looked at what he was doing, he put Diamond back on the ground and as tears started to build he ran away. He didn’t care where he was going, he just wanted to get away from everyone.

“Sam!” Dinky called out, “come back!!! Sam!!!” It was no use; Sam was already far away and didn’t hear her. Dinky turned back to Diamond who had stopped coughing and was looking the direction Sam was running in.

“So long you demon”, Diamond cried out.

“Sam…” Dinky whimpered.

Twilight was getting nervous, Sam had said he’ll be back in a few minutes, a few hours ago and it was getting late. She hoped that maybe Sam lose track of time, but that was a two hours ago. Shen then thought that Sam was hanging of with his friends but when Aurora and Scarlet returned without Sam she grew every more nervous.

“Twilight calm down,” Sunset tried to assure her, “he’s properly at a friend’s house or something.”

“But wouldn’t their parents contact me and say Sam is sending time at theirs”, Twilight said as she paced back and forth, “It’s getting really late”.

Just then there was a knock at the door. Spike went over to it and opened the door. On the other side was Derpy with a very worried expression.

“Derpy?” Twilight said a little shocked, “what are you two doing here this late?”

“Twilight, my little muffin here just told me something you must know”, Derpy said worriedly.

“What is it?” Twilight asked.

“Sam’s ran away,” Derpy told her. The colour seemed to drain from Twilight’s face.

“WHAT?!” Twilight yelled. Everyone else was shocked to hear that as well.

“Derpy told Twilight everything that Dinky told her. Twilight was worried and frightened for Sam’s safety. When Derpy finished, Twilight almost broke down into tears.

“Spike”, she sobbed, “s-send a l-letter to P-Princess Celestia”.

“Right”, Spike said as he start to write down a letter to Princess Celestia and Luna. Once he was done writing, he sent it away to the princesses.

“What do we do now?” Scarlet asked her big sister.

“Now we wait for the Princesses response,” Sunset answered. No sooner she said that, Spike burped as a scroll appear. He opened it and began to read it.

“Dear Twilight Sparkle,
This is terrible news; it appears Sam’s anger has becoming stronger from the description you told me. I would say to you to go looking you him right away but due to this late hour and the fog that’s due tonight, I’m afraid that it’s going to have wait until morning. Luna’s nightguards are too busy tonight to even send one out. But I’ll send Godzilla and his team to help you look in the morning. In the meantime, try to calm down and get some sleep.
Your Mentor,
Princess Celestia.”

Twilight was even more worried now, knowing that Sam was out there all alone and cold. But she trusted her mentor, so she made a decision.

“Okay we’ll go to sleep and find Sam in the morning”, She said. Everyone agreed as they had their dinner and got ready for bed. As Twilight was brushing her teeth, she thought to herself, “Oh Sam, where are you?”

Sam was making his way through the Everfree Forest, he didn’t know where he was going but he thought care, he just wanted to get away from everyone. Ponies had watched him trying to commit a murder. Soon a thick fog rolled in, what’s worse Sam hadn’t eaten anything all day. He saw a tree in the distends so he went to it and sat at the bottom of it.

“Well I had a good run,” he said weakly, “I’m doing this for your safety mum, sisters, brother and Auntie Sunset”. He closed his eyes and waited for the day to come out.

But before he closed his eyes completely, he saw a figure walk up to him through the fog. Sam couldn’t make out who it was through the thick fog but hear the creature speak before passing out.

“Who is this I do see? I better take him back to my tree.”
