Jumping out of bed I felt a huge spike of magic coming from the south of me. “Well this is certainly interesting,” I said while walking over to the restroom. Opening the door I was greeted with a shower, toilet, and sink, nothing extravagant. Above the sink was a mirror that was encrusted in gold, which I was currently in front of.

This is the first time I’ve looked myself over without clothes on. My hollow hole is right below my neck, not in the middle of my chest like I thought. It’s a smallish hole. That’s when a thought hit me. Turning around to check my back I was greeted with a most beautiful sight. On my back was the Lion sin tattoo.

“Ahh, this is perfect. I always wanted a tattoo.” I comment as I begin preparing for a shower.

After getting situated I put my clothes back on and check up on the magic I felt earlier. It was approaching my location at a very fast pace. If I had to guess it’d be here in an hour at most.

The thing that was bugging me the most right now is that nobody was preparing for an attack. I could sense the mummies scurrying around, preparing for the day, but that was it.

Sighing, I spoke, “Let me see if this is a problem or not. Perfect Unknowable.” After I cast the spell I could feel that the being hesitated before it continued on its path towards us. Jumping out of the window I used Sonído to move from the treetops. I mean if I’m going to check out something, I can work on my control of reiatsu on the way.

As I was getting closer to the magic, I could see a figure off in the distance. Before long I saw the entire thing, no not thing, DRAGON. Something inside of me started bubbling. I could feel it, my darkness waiting to come out. But now isn’t the time, this can be a good learning experience for Simon and the other Sins. However, this dragon is massive. It’s a dark purple color, missing it’s right arm, and appears to be missing their left eye as well. Their whole body was also covered in scars.

Using Mana Essence I was surprised. Their mana was unlike any that I’ve seen before. It was a sickly purple that screamed that it would kill anything it touches. As I’m looking them over they turn their head in my direction.

At this point, I spread my wings and flew away because this is not my fight. I mean it is, but I want Simon and the Sins to go up against it.

Taking off in the direction of Canterlot I made it there in no time. Thanks to my being invisible, and untraceable I walked through the front doors of the castle. Arriving at the throne room, Sloth was talking to a pony. I guess I can wait for her to finish, she is a ruler after all.

“-ncess please, you don’t have to do this for me. All I wanted was a little rain for my farm.” The stallion said. He was a very skinny earth pony, who had an orange mane, big blue eyes, and white fur. He was dressed in a pair of brown overalls, that looked like they had seen better days.

Sloth chuckled slightly before responding, “Mr. Castellio are we not friends? This isn’t a royal duty of mine, I’m doing this as a favor to you for being there for me through the years.” Sloth said as she got up from her throne to hug Mr. Castellio before breaking it off. “Besides that old carrot farm is in need of some renovations.”

Saying this made the stallion shed a tear. Wiping it away he spoke, “Thank you Princess, no, I mean Celestia. I’ll see you later then, I don’t want to take up all of your time.” He walked past me on his way out. Leaving Sloth with a mellow expression on her face.

“Sloth, what do you think you're doing?” Saying this caused her to tense up and look around the room, to no avail. “ Cease your futile attempts of looking for me, for you shall not find me. I have erased my presence so the Dragon doesn’t figure out where I am.”

She raised an eyebrow. “Why are you hiding from a Dragon? I can feel the Draconic energy from here, I just assume that they are coming for a visit.” Looking out the window towards the magic she continued, “And from the amount of energy that I can feel there seems to be a lot coming.”

“You truly are slothful. That is only one dragon, and they seem to be coming for me.” I said much to her horror. “Also what do you mean Draconic energy? I only feel magic coming from that way.”

“Dragons don’t have magic. They have Draconic Energy.” She walked over to one of the guards present and whispered something in his ear. I saw his face fall before he bolted out the door as fast as he could. “Thank you for the warning, but you can handle this yourself you vile dem- Captain.”

I began to laugh. “I’m not going to do anything, as your captain I command that you figure this out on your own, along with Envy and Simon. Use your whole army for all I care.” Using my darkness I constructed a copy of myself and made it approach her. It grabbed her chin and looked her in the eyes. From its mouth I spoke, “I will only help if it seems like you will die.” With that, I walked out of the throne room and soon left the castle.

As Simon was in the kitchen teaching some of the mummies how to cook, he felt it. Dropping everything that he was doing he rushed over to his father's room. He slammed the door open. “FATHER WE NEE-“ He stopped mid-sentence as he noticed that Zeldris was not in there. Now that he thinks about it he can’t even feel Zeldris’s magic. ‘Where could he be in such a dire time! That thing is almost here, I need to get the Sins and James!’ Taking flight he made it to where James was in under a minute. What he saw shocked him.

James didn’t look the same as he did before. Now he had his upper face visible, while the bottom half was still covered in bandages. Atop his head was a white fedora that was covering shoulder length deep crimson hair. His skin was revealed to be a pretty peach color, and his eyes were white. He now adorned a white tailcoat. All along his back, there was a black bubble design that trailed up from the left side of the tailcoat to the right shoulder, wrapping around his right arm. His hands were still covered by bandages, but his fingers were exposed. He had on white slacks and a pair of black leather dress shoes.

James also had a panicked look. “Simon, thank Zeldris you're here! You also feel that magic power coming towards us.” He questioned as he ran up to the fallen.

Nodding Simon and James ran to the tower's main entrance and ran out. Just a little ways over was a hillside that was connected to an open area. Taking flight Simon grabbed James and flew to it. When they landed they could hear what sounded like wings flapping. It got closer and closer. Louder and louder. Until finally they could see it. A dragon. He landed on the hill and looked down on the two with his eye.

“Where is the one that smells like Nidavellir.” The dragon questioned as he stared at the two.

“Nidavellir? Like the old Norse legends?” Simon mumbled, however, the dragon heard it. And it brought a mad smile to his face.

“So you also have heard the legends! The realm of the dwarves, home to unlimited riches!” Lowering his head to get a better look at Simon he chuckled which made the ground shake. “Ah, it has been a long time. I didn’t think that the legend of Nidavellir would still be around. Now back to my question.”

This time it was James who spoke up. “Why should we even talk to one such as you? You don’t even have the manners to introduce yourself.” Simon looked over at James for a second not wanting to take his eyes off of the dragon. During that second he gave James the ‘are you crazy’ look.

The dragon seemed taken aback. He cleared his throat and took on a more proper posture. “How very rude of me. I am Pharmakon the God of Poison. The youngest brother of Telkons, who is the third child of the All-Father. You can call me Kon. Now, what are your names?”

Simon and James were not expecting him to say he was the ‘God of Poison’. Simon recollected himself faster than the mummy and spoke for him. “My friend to the right of me is James, the head butler of The Finger. And I am Simon Cain Morningstar. The creation of the Supreme Being, Zeldris. However, you can call me Cain.”

Kon seemed to be lost in thought before the feature of his face shifted downward into a scowl. “Supreme Being? You speak of Blasphemy, for the All-Father rules over all of existence. For that, you shall die…” The dragon took in a deep breath and started to build up Energy in the back of his throat. Simon flew upwards, while James leaped backward. Kon stopped gathering energy and looked out in the distance. “Thank you for having a conversation with me. It was fun Cain, James. But no one can escape my poison.”

Just as he was about to release his breath Simon acted. “Judgment of the Fallen, Holy Thunder!” The sky darkened and clouds formed a circle around the sun, which was shining brightly. Kon looked up, surprised by what was going on. For he had never seen magic such as this. Only for a moment, he saw a shimmer in the sky. The sun seemed to grow brighter and brighter until it was on him. Pure white thunder rained down from above him. Crying out in pain he released his breath.

James was in shock. He knew that Simon was powerful but, he didn’t know he was this strong. Taking the opportunity presented to him the mummy ran up and with his monstrous strength jumped above the poison cloud that was blocking his path. He reeled back his fist and hit the God of Poison in his eye, blinding him momentarily. Landing on the Dragon's snout he propelled himself away from the fight.

While James was doing all that Simon was trying to contain the poison. Just as Kon said it killed everything it touched, so the grass on the ground and everything on it died. The vegetation withered away leaving the ground bare. The ground was dried up, devoid of life.

Simon seeing that James blinded the god, took the chance to build up some magic. Unfortunately, Kon sensed it and swiped at Simon, barely missing. “I can feel your magic, Cain.” Kon continued to swipe at the fallen. “You can’t dodge forever!” Right after saying that Kon scratched Simon across his chest leaving three big claw marks. Regaining sight in his eye he saw Simon on the ground bleeding heavily. He sighed before speaking. “That was kinda boring. The mummy ran away. Those ponies are going to be fun to kill though.” Fixing his sight to the sky he saw a large battalion of Pegasi. Below them were Earth ponies and Unicorns armed for combat.

Once the ground troops came face to face with the dragon they could barely meet his eyes. “B-by order of the Prin-prin-princess you are to stand down!” The Earth pony's shaking knees looked like they were about to shake off of his body. Kon started to laugh loudly, shaking the ground in the process.

“Tell your princess I refuse…. Oh, wait! You won’t be alive, I’ll tell them myself.” He raised his tail and coated it in poison. Kicking Simon out of the way he charged at the ponies, squashing some in the process and began to spin madly. His poison killed all of them instantly. The Pegasi stood no chance either because he was so big he hit them with his wings tearing them apart. And the ones who didn’t get hit died from the poison.

After a couple of minutes, he stopped and marveled at his work. All that was left of the ponies were their skeletons. “Well, that was fun. I still need to find the one who smells of Nidavellir.” He started to flap his wings until he felt a sense of dread washed over him. He fell back to the ground with a thud and looked around. He could feel it, whoever they were wanted his death, no, his destruction.

Out the corner of his eye, he saw him. He was holding a sword that sent shivers down the almighty god's spine. Standing there with a weird looking sword with a blue blade with a golden edge was, Simon. Or as Kon said,

“Cain…”
