Its the weekend, and the sun is setting in Ponyville. Little do they know of what is to come.

 

-

 

Shadow walked out of the Everfree forest with a rather smug looking grin. He started off in the direction of Ponyville.

[Strong Hooves 289]

Six String woke up as the sunlight poured into his window. He got out of his bed with a smile, looking at his calendar he whispered, "Almost the day" he said. He was referring to his wedding day, with the mare he loved.

(going to use Plague)

 

Scipio looked around in a confused state as he awoke. He wasn't in the city, he wasnt even in the Otherworld. Instead, he was in an alien land, surrounded by lush fields of green and other areas of nature.

"I think I'm dead...."

"#Nope, we're both very much alive. Although you seem to have changed.... significantly..."

Scipio tried to get up on his two legs, only to find that it was extremely uncomfortable. His mind was still hazy, therefore unable to notice that his limbs had now become hooves.

"#Eheh, there's a spring nearby, I'll drag you to it..."

The symbiote produced eight spiderlike limbs from his back and helped him over to the spring. Scipio looked in, shocked to discover how drastically he had changed. He wasn't human anymore, instead he was now an equine creature, sporting a bronze coat with dark purple streaks across it. His hair was now a long, black, curly mane which fell upon a single horn located on the middle of his forehead.

"I'm a fricking pony now, aren't I?"

"#Yep, and a unicron at that. Looks like we're in Shadow's home realm...."

"Wonderful...."

He got up and tried to walk around, feeling a bit more stronger than he had a couple of minutes ago. He checked behind him, seeing nothing but what seemed to be a tattoo on his flank. It looked to be the poison symbol with what seemed to be partially covered by a dark, gooey material, an image of the symbiote no doubt. Surrounding it was the Seal of Metatron.

"Ok.... Let's try and get a grip on this... situation..."

He began to inspect the area, flicking his forked tongue out periodically to familiarize himself with the smells.

"#... I smell Shadow...."

[Chickey 383]

A cloak of shadow's surrounded Shadow and covered him. It fell off a few seconds later and his appearance changed.

 

He now looked rather normal. His grey fur was now a very light sky blue and his hair was a dark blue. His eyes did no longer have his inverted look. They were a normal blue. And his ear piercings had dissapeared. He looked like a new pony.

 

He looked at the ground "Now i have to be remembered what i used to look like" he spat out angrily. He continued his stroll down to ponyville and tried to change his mood to a 'happy go lucky' one.

[THE WILD HUNT 213]

Scipio tried his best to sneak around in his new form as he followed Shadow.

"They have settlements here, I'm surprised..."

No longer able to sneak efficiently as he drew closer to Ponyville, Scipio used the symbiote to camoflauge himself before taking on a snakelike form to avoid bumping into other ponies.

"Now, where's our insane friend here heading to?"

[Chickey 383]

Shadow looked to has flank, his cutie mark was still the same but in a new color. He was getting rather angry just looking at it. He focused at it and it morphed into a musical note. "Better" he thought as he had finally reached the outskirts of Ponyville. He faked a kind attitude as he walked into the town.

[THE WILD HUNT 213]

Scipio slithered into a nearby alley of the town to watch the ongoing activities with greater safety. The ponies were rather civilized to his surprise, much different that what he had seen in Shadow's psychotic nature.

"They seem friendly enough, I don't think that we'll need to hide so often," he said as he shifted back into his "normal" form and uncamoflauged.

"#Yes, we also don't need to worry about Shadow either, I've masked our scent with different smells to avoid being recognized by his keen sense of smell."

Scipio was about to head out into the open, until he remembered the image on his flank.

"This tattoo thingy might give us away though, I've casted that seal surrounding the skull and crossbones a number of times..."

The symbiote covered that part of his body and changed color to resemble Scipio's coat. He nodded in appreciation as he stepped out and began to try his best to act like the other ponies.

 

(Shadow, remember that you're going to have to narrate some events other than the ones that deal with your characters)

[Chickey 383]

(Was getting to that)

 

Shadow started to head towards a library. He knocked on the door with his hoof and waited. A female pony opened the door. "May i come in he asked?" the pony nodded "Of course you can, it's the library!" the pony said with a giggle.

 

-

 

There were groups of ponies around town. And more in assorted buildings. A male pony saw Scipio and walked up to him "Hey, are you new in town?" he asked with a friendly smile.

Colt walked out of his house after putting on his hat, shades, and jacket on

 

he felt like today would be a good day

[THE WILD HUNT 213]

Scipio looked at the pony.

"Uh.... Yeah!" he finally said as he extended his hoof, forgetting that they probably couldn't shake hands like they did in his home realm.

[Chickey 383]

The pony extended his own hoof and shook Scipio's. "Do you need any help finding yourself around town?" he asked.

 

-

 

Shadow stepped into the library and the mare shut the door. Shadow examined the library and found the mare and him were the only ponies in it. "You are the only one here?" he asked. The mare shook her head "I was asked to look after the library when the usual owner had to leave on a vacation for a while"

[THE WILD HUNT 213]

"I suppose so," he said as he put his hoof down on the grass. He was lying of course, he had carefully observed the area and so had a pretty good idea what went on in the town and where said things would occur.

<Just need to familiarize myself with the residents here, I might give myself away if I do something I do in our home world.>

[Chickey 383]

The pony noticed something was odd about Scipio, but who was he to judge. "Well you are in Ponyville right now. It's a small town." he gave directions to every store and building.

 

-

 

Shadow nodded "I see, that's too bad. i just hope every pony soon learns that being alone is going to become a danger." Shadow said. The mare grew a more suspicious look "What do you mean?" she asked.

[THE WILD HUNT 213]

Scipio's eye twitched a little as the symbiote's warning sense pulled at his gut. He rubbed his eye to make it seem as if something had gotten in it.

"I see, thank you.... whatever you're name is," Scipio said as he smiled thankfully.

"Ah yes, could you tell me anything else about this place? You know, stuff about the creatures that are common here and whatnot?"

<#Yes, because I am starved...>

Scipio looked towards the library, which is what seemed to be setting his senses off....

[Strong Hooves 289]

Six walked around town, greeting everypony warmly as he passed by. He noticed a new pony, but somehow, he seemed... familiar. He shrugged it off and headed to the library, looking for a wedding planning book that he had seen earlier.

[Skullbuster 1,906]

colt yawned at his porch and decided to check the library to see if the sequel to his favorite book was there

[Chickey 383]

"Oh i forgot to introduce myself. I'm Snapshot, a photographer." he said with laugh "Well, there are no creatures here, but in the Everfree forest there are a lot of dangerous monsters, i suggest to stay away from that place if you can" he said

 

-

 

"Well, there is going to be some incoming danger" Shadow said with a smile. The mare grew more nervous. "I-I'm just going to head upstairs...." she stuttered turning around. Shadow dashed up to the mare with incredible speed and sent his fangs into the mares neck before she could even scream, instead she let out a muffled yelp.

She could not move, defend herself, or call out for help.

 

Shadow began to drain the mares blood, but just before she was sucked dry he let go. The mare fell to the floor with a thud paralyzed. Shadow cloaked himself and left the library unseen.

K-Bar slowly strolled through the town, brooding. Her favorite blacksmith had moved on, far away from equestria. There had been a notice on the door of the old forge saying that if K-Bar wanted more knives, she would have to send them out to her in griffon territory.

She sighed and took a seat at a small cafe, ignoring the patrons of the cafe staring at her wings as she sipped her coffee.

*Schwartz walked up and sat down next to her.*

"Hey KB. Whats up?"

[Skullbuster 1,906]

colt opened up the library and called out

 

"yo anyone here?"

[THE WILD HUNT 213]

Scipio inhaled deeply as he caught the scent of another familiar pony, Six Strings. However, as he did, he noticed a slight change in the atmosphere. There seemed to be an air of fear and tension surrounding the library now.

"Ah, I'm uh... Telemachos (tellehmakos)," he said as he headed towards the library.

"Thanks for the help Snapshot!"

He carefully opened the doors and stepped inside...

[Power Ten 213]

*Schwartz walked up and sat down next to her.*

"Hey KB. Whats up?"

 

K-Bar grunted in response. "Favorite knife dealer is somewhere in griffon-land. Oh, and there's a dark red stallion with a blue mane staring at my wings" She said the last part just loud enough for the offender to hear. He eeped and hid behind his newspaper.

[Skullbuster 1,906]

colt walked up to the mares body once he noticed it

 

"this doesnt look too good, i need to find a doctor!"

[Chickey 383]

The mare was laying on the floor slowly bleeding from her neck, but somehow still alive. There was a note next to the body "Storms a brewin'!" the note read with a winking smiley face with fangs on it.

[Apollo 297]

K-Bar grunted in response. "Favorite knife dealer is somewhere in griffon-land. Oh, and there's a dark red stallion with a blue mane staring at my wings" She said the last part just loud enough for the offender to hear. He eeped and hid behind his newspaper.

 

"That sucks. And don't act like you aren't used to it, we all get stared at cus of our wings. Or maybe they just think your as pretty as I do." *Schwartz said in a flirtatious tone.*
