This one was a long time in coming. This chapter's first scene was originally written for another story and may end up being used again in that story, which takes place in the real timeline, once Nyx, Derpy and Doctor Whooves fix time. It's a short preview, but intense. Enjoy!
"A tiny wisp of that darkness, however, resembling living smoke, sought refuge not in the glacier, but turned in the direction of the single stallion who still stood stock still and frozen on the plain nearby. “Uh…” he stuttered, cold gathering in his stomach. “Don’t cast your gaze upon me, foul thing!” he warned it, surprised when the words actually came out of his mouth. Knowing he was utterly unable to defend himself, ice formed in the pit of his stomach at its presence.
Yet again, something was so familiar...
Sensing his fear, the airborne taint crossed the distance to the bat pony, pulled by the intensity of emotion, as if hunting and seeking out a source of food in this wasteland. In seconds it was upon him."
