Before there was Tirek, before there was Discord, before Chrysalis, Sombra, or the Pony of Shadows, and before even the solar and lunar princesses themselves; there was Grim Noise.

Now, he has returned to wreak havoc on not just Equestria, but all of Equis. To stop him, the elite organization Z.O.D.I.A.C. was formed. Scarlet Thorn is one such agent. A pegasus without flight, and a loving mother as well as special-somepony, she must juggle her personal life as a Ponyville citizen, with her life as an agent of Z.O.D.I.A.C.

But when three of Ponyville's beloved citizens go missing, she gets dragged into a deadly and dark adventure. And when the past is brought up, there's no place to hide.

Unlike most dark stories, this one will progressively get more disturbing. So please don't down vote it just because the story doesn't start off how you expected, until you have read chapter three. This IS also a Slice of Life story after all.

Please at least care enough to tell me what I'm doing wrong in the comments.
There's no point in crushing an author's hope just because you didn't actually take the time to read their story.

It's the festival of friendship! A festival that they won't soon forget! A party to be proud of, a day of games and fun! Not for one unicorn. Gallant Aurora, captain of the Lunar Guard and Princess Luna's adopted son, hasn't felt at ease since the discovery of the Vanished hive in the Everfree Forest. And while the other Z.O.D.I.A.C. agents enjoy the festivities, Gallant just can't seem to shake the feeling that something is wrong.

But when the Storm King conquers Equestria and traps the princesses, the mane six must leave their home to save it. But working in the background the agents of Z.O.D.I.A.C must prevent the god-like being known as Grim Noise from unleashing his army of corrupted souls onto the weakened Equestria, and turning it into the undead capital of Equis.

Join Gallant Aurora and his friend Missy, a unicorn with a dark secret, and their dragons Sound-Off and Horus, on an adventure outside of Equestria to stop Grim Noise before it's too late!

Meanwhile, Prince Blueblood must find a way to overcome his cowardly and selfish nature to save his daughter from the Storm King. Joined by an ancient Anugyptian necromancer and a centuries old vampony, can he learn what it truly means to love and be loved?

Tempest Shadow has had enough. She knows the truth, the Storm King isn't going to restore her horn. Now she must make a choice, continue fighting a pointless war for the benefit of a spoiled child, or betray him and join Z.O.D.I.A.C in a war that they can never win. Will she accept the hoof of friendship offered out to her, or will she take the darker path and become something far more powerful than the Storm King himself?
