Slender Man and his allies sat outside of the castle that jutted out of the hill. They had been waiting for one of the Slender Beings to return from discovering the exact time of the party. The plan was the same as it had been before. Wait until midswing of the party, attack, force the human to choose between his dog and the party goers.
It was dark out when the Slender Scout returned, and he brought good news. It would be starting today just before dark! If they attack in the middle of the party, it should be dark out, which would make them stronger! Unfortunately, it would also make the human stronger. Hmmm...

I walked to sugarcube corner to get a bite to eat before going to the library, cuz' making Twilight worry is funny. I walked through the town, and I caught some angry glares and hisses from any ponie that were out and about. One yelled "It's your fault!" and they chucked a rock at me. It caught me right in the cheek, just above my already existing scar. I felt blood run down my cheek. Great. Now I have to cut a bitch.
I started towards my assailant, a charcoal grey pegasus with a blue silver man and a rain cloud with lightning as his cutie mark. Before I reached him however, he was tackled by a red blur. He hit the ground with Big Macintosh on him, and fear was evident in his amber eyes.
"Next time ya' hit one a my friends, i'll kick your pegasus ass."
Big Mac threw a punch, If thats what you can call it. I mean, is that what they refer to it as? They cant flex their actual hooves, so what do they call it? To save confusion, i'll call it a punch.
Big Mac threw a punch(?) into the pegasus' face, and drew blood. He then got up and walked over to me, leaving the pegasus on the ground.
"Dude, you're pretty badass when you want to be, huh?"
"Eeyup." He walked off.
"All right."
I resumed my walk to Sugarcube Corner uninterrupted. When I got there, only one customer stood in line. Him. I walked in and stood right behind Him. I breathed heavily on his neck just to freak Him out. He turned slowly, and when He saw me, He sqeualed in fear.
"AAHH!!! H-h-here, t-take my s-spot! P-please don't k-kill me!!"
"Run now, fool! NOW!!!"
The stallion ran out of the confection shop, most likely with thoughts of pissing blood. I chuckled with much malice in my voice. I turned to the counter behind me to see a mare with a cerulean coat and pink mane looking at me with mild concern.
"Umm... Can I help you?"
"Yeah, can I get a blueberry muffin?"
"Yes, one moment."
She turned to a previously unseen display case and pulled one out. She set it on the counter and said "That'll be 2 bits please."
"Ummm... No."
I grabbed the muffin and ran out of the store laughing like an idiot. I heard her shout... something, I couldn't tell exactly what. Didn't matter, I had a muffin! I bit into it and savored the soft buttery goodness and the taste of bluberries on my tongue. For the first time in a while, an actual tear slid out of my eye. It was just so delicious... I finished it off in a few ravenous bites, realizing, that that was the first actual food I had had that didn't numb my tongue from sweetness in almost a week (I had eaten a bologna sammich at my camp on earth). I continued to Twilights and arrived a short minute later.
I walked inside to find it quiet, like every library should be, but I could see no unicorn reading doing other nerd stuff. I walked up to the main desk and saw a folded peice of paper with 'Michael' written across the top. I picked it up and opened it.
"Michael, I have gone to Rarity's to pick up my dress for the Gala. I would bring back yours, but i'm not going to, just because.
*Sigh*. Douchette. Apparently the fact that I don't know where Rarity lives has escaped her. I started to leave, but I noticed that she was working on something called a 'Creation' spell. The notes she had pointed that she was attempting to pull something out of ones memories. I guess Celestia hadn't told her of that spell. She had some numbers written down, and there was one I recognized. 3.14159265359, Pi. I picked up a pencil and changed it to 3.15149265953 for some revenge. A dish best served without the target ever knowing.
I left the library promptly, laughing to myself, not knowing what would happen when she tested it out. Who cares, it'll be awesome! I walked around Ponyville looking for, I dont know what. Fortunately, I ran into Big Mac again. He was standing behind a stand with apples on it and a sign that said 'Apples 2 bits a peice'. I walked up to him and said "S'up Big Mac attack!"
"Umm... What?"
"Not sure. Where does Rarity live?"
"Down the street to the left. It's a buildin' called 'Carousel Boutique'."
"Thanks, man."
"Eeyup."
I waved and walked off in the direction he directed. Sure enough, It was there, Carousel Boutique. A white building that looked like its namesake. I walked in and saw Twilight and her friends talking about something, wasn't sure what though. I coughed and they all turned to me. Then, at the same time, they all exclaimed "OH MY GOSH!! WHAT HAPPENED??"
"Nothing, don't worry about it."
"Don't worry about it? You're bleeding from your face and you already have a scar!" Exclaimed Fluttershy in her soft tone.
"No, I had that one. None of you really noticed that? Huh."
"Yeah, none of us ever saw it." Responded Dash.
"Oh. Well, yeah, I already had this, and I don't think im going to get another."
"How d'ya get it?" asked Applejack.
"Well, you asked, and you shall be told."
They all scooted in, expecting a story filled with twists and turns that would leave them speechless. Ha.
"I got this a year ago when I was making Colmillo and I some pancakes. I tried flipping them like a boss, but the pan slipped out of my grip and the hot metal caught me on the cheek. I didn't get any pancakes either, Colmillo grabbed them off the floor and ate 'em."
They all fell back in surprise. Their faces went from 'rapt with attention' to 'for real?'. I laughed at these silly ponies.
"Well..." Rarity broke the silence "That was rather anti-climatic." All the others nodded in agreement.
"What? Not all my life is dangerous and full of near death experiences. I can be normal, at times."
They all looked at me with dead pan faces, then out of nowhere, they burst out laughing. Dash was holding her sides, ROTFL. Rarity was giggling like a stoner. Pinkie was guffawing. Fluttershy was laughing normal. Twilight chuckled. Applejack was laughing like this one guy I knew that lived in Louisiana. I narrowed my eyes and barked at Rarity "Just go get me my suit."
She got up still laughing and walked to a rack with my suit on it. She put it in a bag with dress shoes and socks, a red tie, and a white dress shirt. She walked to me and handed it to me, still laughing.
"Fuck all of you."
And with that, I walked into a shadow and appeared back in my room in the castle. I was promptly tackled by Colmillo. He looked sleek and shiny, like he had had a bath. He smelled better than usual, and his claws didnt feel as sharp. Who the hell fucked with my dog!?!
"Ah, I see you have met the new Colmillo."
I looked at the door and Celestia was standing there with a smile on her face. I got up and walked over to her with a serious look.
"Celestia. I found Slender Man. He had friends. I couldn't find the daughter."
Her face fell. "A summoning. He sacrificed her to bring his allies."
I clenched my fist in RAGEMELON and growled. Thats when Celestia gasped in surprise.
"Michael, What happened to your cheek?"
I looked at her nonchalantly. "Ponies are blaming me for what happened to that family. Nothing to worry about."
"This will not stand."
She walked out on the balcolny and her horn glared. "You may want to get close to me."
I grabbed Colmillo and walked over to her. Her horn flared up brightly, and a wave of light went out over the horizon, as far as the eye could see.
"What was that?"
"A memory spell. I wiped the entire incedent from everypony's mind."
I looked at her in shock. "Really? Aren't you overreacting just a little bit?"
"No."
My eyes widened. Huh. I heard a knock at the door and we both looked. a guard stood at attention.
"Your Majesty, the Gala shall be beginning soon."
"Thank you, Hard Hoof."
He nodded and walked out of the room. Celestia looked at me and suddenly noticed the bag in my hand. She smiled lightly as she started to walk out of the room. She motioned her head towards the nightstand next to the bed. "I got Colmillo a collar and leash. If you plan on taking him to the Gala with you, he'll need it."
"Really?"
"Yes. Sorry, but it must be that way."
With that, she exited the room, leaving me to get dressed. I put everything on and it all fit snugly and Man did I look bad ass. Celestia even made sure the collar and leash went with my Suit. It was black and white, and together, we both looked awesome.
"Lookout Gala, here comes trouble."
