Leon sat down and sighed. “My story is a sad tale. Long ago before this world existed I was living a happy life with my wife and son. Till the first krawl came. Our pride tried to hold them off but while we could beat them with a decent amount of work one on one the krawl fight dirty. My family was the last to fall. The sad thing is any spectrobe who dies becomes a fossil that can be brought back to life but not with the same level of intellect they had the first time if done by machine. But this one magic gives me hope.” leon motioned with a paw at discord. “When he brought me back I had my reason intact and also made me evolve to my last form.”
“Last… form?” Fluttershy muttered.
“Spectrobes have three stages. The first stage is the child stage, the second and the one I died in was my adult fom. And the last stage and the one I am in now is my evolved form. My son was just a child form!” he started to cry. “And I was to weak to stop them!”
”Oh, my.” Rarity said sadly.
“Why did I have to be so weak!!?? If I had been in this form before the attack maybe they would have made it!”
“There there leon. It’s okay. You're with friends now.” fluttershy said stroking his fur, trying her best to calm him.
“Really? We just met and we are friends already? Thank you.”
”Yea, now were friends, AKA the coolest ponies ever!” Rainbow dash confirmed.
“The coolest? That sounds nice. Now I think I have told enough of my story. May you start your’s?”
“Well It all started when I came to town, as a task assigned to me by Princess Celestia-” Twilight started but was cut off.
*BOOM*
“What in tarnation was that?” Applejack said looking towards the entrance of the castle were the sound came from.
“That isn’t possible! It’s the krawl!” Leon said charging to the door. When he made it outside, ponyville was coverd in dark clouds. In the center of town was a tornado. Almost without thought Leon charged into the tornado.
When he makes it to the center he sees his foe. ‘Just two basic ones. I got this!’ he thought as he charges one with a paw raised. He brought it down, leaving a huge claw mark on one of the krawl. “You won't destroy this world!” he roars as he again swipes at the krawl dealing a bit more damage and knocking him down. Leon jumps back a few feet, while the first krawl gets up. The other krawl walks beside his wounded comrade and charge Leon. Leon does the same and charges at them while his armor forms right in front of him and forms something similar to a wedge. When Leon reaches them, his armor cuts both of them in half. Leon only got a few seconds to breath before another krawl appeared before him. This krawl was much bigger than the first ones. The krawl took a massive swing at Leon knocking him far back across the battlefield. The giant krawl slowly made his way towards Leon.“TAKE THIS!” Leon opened his mouth and a bright light started to glow from within him. “BURN YOU MONSTER!” he roars as he fires a huge beam of flame taking out the massive krawl and dispelling the tornado.
Having seen the battle rainbow is in awe. “THAT WAS AWESOME!!!!!!”
Leon walks out gasping. “Not ...huf... used ...huf… to… huf ...this ...huf... form!”
“You okay sugarcube?” Applejack worriedly asked.
He nods. “Ya just tired. First time fighting in this form.”
“I guess being in a new body means you used too much energy? You just need practice is all. But first I must tell the princesses.” Twilight walked off to go find Spike.When she found him, he was reading his favorite comic book, The Power Ponies. “Spike could you take a letter?” She asked.
Spike drops his comic and grabs a parchment and quill and starts writing. “Dear princess Celestia. I have grave news. A new enemy capable of destroying this planet has been spotted in ponyville. But don't worry. A new friend of ours ,the spectrobe leon, has saved the town. I have a feeling this is just the beginning of this dark problem. What do we do?”
“Your faithful student Twilight Sparkle.” When he finished, he rolled up the scroll and blew flames on it.
That night leon is tossing and turning in a panic restless sleep. He is seeing the first death of his wife and son.
Luna was doing her rounds when she saw a strange dream that she could tell was a nightmare.
“Not if we have anything to say about it.” she muttered and entered the nightmare and with a magic pulse banish the nightmare.
Leon was stuck seeing it for a while till a bright flash makes it all go away. When he tries to look for the source he is shocked to see a horned winged pony. “Who are you and why are you even in my dreams!?”
“Does thou not know? One of our jobs as Princess is to monitor the dreams of our subjects and banish nightmares. When we saw a black door we were duty bound to assist you. Now what are you?”
“A spectrobe your grace. The name is leon and I’m a leozar.”
“I see now pray tell what is a ,as you say, spectrobe?” Luna asked.
“We are were an ancient race. We once spanned the stars. Tell they came. The krawl. We tried to beat them but while we can beat them one on one they don’t play fair. I’m sad to say i’m the only spectrobe species alive and only because your friend, I think he said his name was discord? Rebirthed me out of a fossil.”
“Hmm, most interesting and I assume you have meet fluttershy and her friends?” Luna asked
“Yes i have. They are to kind to me. I wish i had known such kindness from my tribe.”
“You had a tribe, do tell.”
“It wasn't a big one but for the most part when i was a child we were family. But when i first evolved i felt like i was being shunned for doing so early.”
”That’s horrible, why would evolving early be a bad thing?”
“Almost all of the tribe evolved at the same time. The fact that a very small number of us were early was seen as a bad omen.”
“Oh, well don’t expect any of my ponies to ack so rude to you as your tribe did.” Luna said trying to warm Leon. ”Morning is going to come soon, you should rest. My sister and I will travel to Twilight's castle and meet you in the real world.”
“Alright then. Nice to meet you.” Leon said as Luna floated away and a much better dream started to appear. He was still just a leo and was running with one of the few friends he had ever made. Oddly enough it was not a leo but a blue and silver being, but no matter how hard leon tried to, he couldn’t remember what its name was or what it looked like exactly.
