Seven years later
"Now I avenge my fathers death!" said a light purple unicorn mare. She was still a blank flank, but she has one unconventional talent, and it feared it.
In her head she could hear "You will soon join him! No pony is powerful enough to stop me! Slendermare!" The other mare grinned at her white furred, tux wearing, faceless demon. She lit her horn, and produced eight pages. If Slendermare could look scared she did.
"No! How did you get those?" yelled the Slenderpony into the mares thoughts.
"You could call it a birthday present." the mares eyes lit up in a yellow light, and six gems came out of her bags next "And some death wishes." She placed them in her armor, and casted a spell just like her dad! She formed a sword around her horn.
Seven years earlier
"What are these?" asked Dinky I simply replied with.
"Safety." she looked at me quizzically then shrugged placing the binder down besides her.
"Now let's eat some cake!" said an ever so peppy Doctor.
"Yes let's!" said Lyra we all got up, and I served the cake. Soon after every pony left I got an eerie feeling as if I was being watched. I shrugged it off, and went to bed.
The Next Morning
I woke up in my bedroom, and yawned as I looked around I noticed something was off. Unable to pinpoint the cause I shrugged it off, and went downstairs. School was closed today it did snow pretty hard last night so I wasn't supprised. I walked over to Dinky she was playing with some of her toys she got on her birthday yesterday. "Morning." I told her.
"Good morning Dad." said Dinky.
"Oh morning Sabre." said Ditzy walking down the stairs.
"Morning." I said giving her a kiss on the cheek. I still felt that presence not sure what it was I turned to Dinky, and smiled. Of course when ever something good happens something worse happens each time. Anyway a armored stallion walked in. He was strange looking he had a horn (if you could call it that looked like a spearhead to me), and bat wings. His fur was black, his eyes red, and a peach tail. His armor was an assortment of different hides, and cloths. When he opened his mouthe, and revealed a set of sharp teeth (you know like wolves have) Dinky was starting to cry, but Ditzy comforted her as I approached the stallion. "Who are you, and you've frightened my daughter so what do you need?" I asked him. He replied with a voice that sounded like a mix of crazy and angry.
"The mare with no face has been spotted by the guards it killed three of them, but the forth got away." he said.
"This can't be happening. Alright I'll get some help, and get rid of it. By the way I didn't catch your name." I said.
"Names Midnight Black got it." said Midnight Black.
"Okay I'll be right out. Dinky, Ditzy a dangerous creature was seen near the edge of the forest got to go. Oh and Dinky keep that binder on you at all times! Daddy loves you." I said leaving home for the last time.
Town
"Okay you've all been briefed now you know that this "slenderpony" has been killing our people that I will not stand for! Now I know I should bring more ponies, but I trust you four the most!" I said to my group it consisted of Twilight (who was now an alicorn), Rairity, Fluttershy (she's just coming if we run into any animals), and Midnight Black because he's being forced to help." I said he gave me a glare, but I kept talking until we got geared up, and headed into the forest.
The Forest thirty minutes in
"Okay I think were hear." I whispered to my group as we advanced into the ruined castle. When we got inside we looked for evidence of the Slendermare. Just then we had our first casualty. A black tentacle sprung out of a hallway, and impaled Rairity then slamming her into a wall leaving a bloody splat on the surrounding area. The nex one slammed into me it didn't even puncture me, but I was sent sprawling onto the stone. Next it grabbed Fluttershy, and squeezed until she stopped moving. Twilight and Midnight rushed the hall when the pony showed her self. It was around Celestias height with a bald head, it was also wearing a suit. Two more tentacles came from it's back one breaking through Twilights skull, the other slamming Midnight into a spike on the wall. I arose, and took a stance when it walked forewords. "Now you've done it!" I yelled powering myself with my element. "Now I kill YOU!" I charged it dodging tentacles left, and right slicing at a few only to see my blade pass harmlessly through them.
"No I kill you." I heard in my head was "it" talking to me. It lifted me up, and pulled me up to his faceless face. In my last moments I lit my horn picking the elements from my armor, and my friends jewelry, and teleporting them away.
"You'll still die, but not by my hooves. But Di..." I was cut off by a tentacle snapping my neck. It dropped me, and just vanished.
The Cottage
"I'm afraid to inform you Miss. Doo, but I'm afraid Sabre has died." said a guard that had came to deliver the news. Ditzy just sat there tears welling up in her eyes.
"Mommy is it true?" asked Dinky. Ditzy just started sobbing running off to her room. "No daddy no!" cried Dinky at the thought of her father dead. Still crying the stallion dropped a package in front of Dinky.
"You're father told me to give this to you if he didn't come back. Sorry for your loss." he said trotting off. Dinky stopped crying for a second to examine the box it was way to big for her to carry on her own, but she managed with some magic. She opened it finding a sack of bits, a large ornate box, and guard armor with six slots, three on each side built for a mare.
"What the hay." she said opening the box seeing the Elements of Harmony along with a note.
"Dear Dinky if you are reading this I was killed by the Slendermare. I've left you a few thousand bits, some custom armor, and the elements. Wait till you're fourteen then don the suit, place all the elements in there respective places, and avenge me. I've also left a book of combat spells in the box. Please don't moarn me just train, and study, and most importantly never loose those pages.
Love Daddy"
Tears running down her face Dinky muttered "Yes father."
........... seriously, why did you have the mane six killed? there is no way the slendermare could even continue existing because celestia and luna themselves would kill it in retaliation.
i have seen people kill of f the mane six in their stories dozens of times, and it always ends up being a lazy and weak attempt to make the enemy seem strong. it never works because the deaths are always forced and contrived. seriously, none of the ponies even dodged? and twilight did not blast the thing with as magic as she could? shakes head. they fought chaos beasts and armies of changelings. they have tame chaos and healed fallen angels. slendermare is unworthy to kill them, especially upon first appearnce.
i think a weakness here is that people treat slenderman exactly the same as they treat it in the stories it originates from when they put it here. the same rules do not apply. the ponies are not being dealing with something beyond their understanding. in equistria a slenderman equivalent is simply another supernatural force in equistria, and all things considered, not a very powerful one. celestia can shatter castles, discord can cause a certain area to distort to his whim, luna can cause things to animate with a small pulse of magic, chrysalis can shapeshift and consume the energy of victims, and sobmra had powerful illusionary magic and dark power.
slenderman has tentacles, teelportation, and a certain level of intangibility and the aiblity to incite fear and apranoia. and by all logic, raw magic could hurt slenderman easily because it is not a mundane force like a gun or sword..... he is running on empty when it comes to advantages.
other than that it goes far too quickly and its start is extremely confusing. a prologue should start a story and should be a seperate chapter, not part of the first chapter like that.
3893294 sorry bout that, but I needed the mane six out of the way for Dinky to actually matter. Oh and Celestia/Luna don't know of the creature yet. Sorry should of made more dodging I just forgot. Let's just say it caught them by surprise and it was to fast for the crew to react.
If any pony is wondering why slendy is so powerfull it's because the guy who's oc is midnight black told me he couldn't just be stopped. So in my universe the pages are needed to make him fightable. And Dinky has the pages Sabre over estimated his own power and left them to protect his family instead.
3893421 ............. they would know about it because the mane six got murdered. you do not just kill six of the most important, both nationally nad personally, beings in equistria and the princesses know nothing.
and there was a thousand better methods than outright killing. the slenderman is a supernatural entity after all. if it could not fight them directly, which it can't i would say, it oculd ahve always driven them to madness to break harmony, which would only work if that happened anyway. the elements would go to another otherwise.
also the elements would probably work on it anyway. the elements of harmony aerr sorta a beat all force because of the factors needed for them to work. it could beat discord, it could bypass anything slendemare has.
3893533 The creature just showed up so the princesses don't know about it no matter how old they are they've never encountered it. As far as they know it's just a story, and the news of they're deaths were just found out so the news will get there shortly. Oh and my Slendy will only show if he wants to so if Celestia or Luna go he won't show unless he's sure he can get a silent kill on them so no pony sees it and attacks.
Ps half the mane six are already dead my friend slendermare is writing a fic canon to my universe that's like cupcakes just different ponies diolouge situations and pinkies death.
3893549 so not at all.
i am pertty sure that the regent of the moon and night cna hunt down a singular creature of the night if she must. she is the night's pricness, and the shadows are her allies.
3893617 it's called the power of random unexplained powers that make no since.
3893294 NOT WORTHY!?
Come and say that to my face.
3893732 no offense, but you have like five limited powers. they gots magic and can use that magic to generate multiple effects and even imitate yours.
that and pinkie pie already knows whatever metaphysical loopholes a slender uses so......... yeah.
also discord. it took two alicorns to fight him to a draw even. and you don't exactly have discords capacity.
3893749 yes he does it's called imagination!
3893294 here is the point where I prove you wrong:
The Slendermare is different from slendermane/slender man. She has the same powers, but also has a powerful magic shield. Not impossible to break, but hard to. The shield surrounds her body perfectly, can't tell its there, and most don't know. I'm VERY hard to beat. I know that I'm paranormal and most ponies know all the paranormals, but I use my slender are powers to hide my existence. Some know of me, like the princesses, or a random author who consciously know I exist. The princesses don't stop me because of my ability to cause fear. The way that it works is that I can make you fear me, or I look into the recesses of your mind to find what you fear most. I rarely use the latter category, but against the royals, I need to use it since they don't really fear me.
If that doesn't prove you wrong, then let me know.
3893421 slendermare's back story is my version of hers. I really like the fact they don't know of her yet. Its mystery.
3893533 doubt it.
1 His name is slendermane and 2 it is a stallion
3893827 I call it an it he or she. And I call it slendermare due to it's based off the one in the comments.
3893817 tell that to nightmare moon. it would have been easier if she simply did not shoot any magic back.
and discord. when the mane six used the elements it not only turned him to stone but reversed all his chaos..........
actually i think the elements be liable to kill you actually. discord had some amount of good in him........... you likely lack.
Wouldnt that leave pinkie pie, rainbow dash, and applejack
3893854 I can be good, but it requires work. And the only reason they were stopped is because they're not virtually indestructible paranormal monsters.
Duh.
3893827 don't question it.
3893795 you know what fuck slenderman im worshiping you now
3893867 a slender is only idnestructable in a world where it faces no other supernatural foes. equistria is not such a world.
as a cranky sterotypical animated asian man once said, "Magic must defeat Magic."
3893875 awesome. That is awesome.
Lol that reminds me of someone's reaction to my name.
3893895 well,
A) I'm not a normal supernatural, and
B) I'm the CREATOR of magic.
Anything else?
3893919 can't change the rules of the magic you enter.
besides you are probably not as powerful as Sexy.
3893934 your not listening. I can change the rules of magic, because I created magic.
Duh.
3893951 seriously magic creator god bullcrap?....... okay maybe bullcrap is harsh but that is sitll a bit contrived.
still not as strong as sexy.
3893862 AJ died in the new bearer. Rainbow in the shinig Sabre, and pinkies dying in a fic Slendermares working on.
3893934 you have no idea how stupid you sound
3893970 i only state flaws is all. in this case just killing the mane six is a classical forced drama.
3893976 and that was intentionally stupid for your intel.
3893985 ok mister commando quit hating on stories why dont you get a life and get out of ours
3893968 hey.
Don't bring religion into this. All I did was create magic, only to have all the credit taken by a certain celestial troll now, I'm making her squirm by killing her subjects. ,maybe her eventually. Its hard to tell. Don't question me or my logic.
3893997 one request dont touch luna
3894010 I wouldn't. Trust me.
LUNA IS BEST PRINCESS!!!
3894019 good because anyone who messes with mother dosnt wake up to see celestias sun(btw my name is actually night)and you realise pinkie, dash, and AJ are still alive
3893997 still lazy.
3894046 pinkie is gonna die. Its in the fix I'm writing for Sabre
3894064 yeah, well,
Buck you. If I created magic, I obviously created the rules.
Ps Luna won't die but I'll put three faces you'll decide who dies. Ok
3894097 true
3894197 the celestial bitch
3894197 derpy. She's awesome, but it'll give dinky more reason to kill me.
3896635 gah you're gonna make me re write chapter 2 aren't you? Nery well.
3896962 nope. I expect that whatever it is, it'll be awesome.
3897019 I didn't write it yet but I had the basic idea down but you gave me a new one.
