The Shadow

Meeting yourself

It was late at night, Wallflower Blush just finished to plant a new plant with her gardening club, it was a small group but it didn't matter to Wallflower. She put her gardening tools in her bag and was ready to leave the garden, but before she left she looked again at her and her friends beautiful achievement and she saw another figure looking at the garden. Wallflower saw only his back, but it was enough to give her chills. The figure was wearing black robes and his hair if he had any was covered in a black hood. It was looking at some kind of an ancient warrior or a demon.

"Hello," Wallflower called the figure. As every step she took towards him, Wallflower felt cold and her heart beat loud. The figure didn't move, he just stood there, looking at the flowers.

"Beautiful, aren't they?" The figure asked in a horrifying voice, that send shivers down Wallflower's spine. "She always loved flowers, she told me she wants to cover the world with flowers," the figure turned his head to Wallflower. The face was unclear, all black with two white eyes with no pupils and the mouth was covered under a mask. "You used magic. It doesn't flow through your body, but it is within you."

"How did you know?" Wallflower asked in fear as the figure walked towards her as his left fist was glowing in green.

"I am sorry, you don't deserve it."


Twilight, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Fluttershy, Applejack and Pinkie Pie were at the schoolyard, waiting for Sunset. It has been two hours since Sunset left and the girls started to worry. "What takes her so long?" Twilight asked in a panic, "Maybe the ponies are in danger, or maybe the creature who killed the criminal have friends in Equestria, or-," the anxiety for her friend stopped as she saw Sunset walked out of the statue. The group ran towards Sunset and hugged her.

"Girls I have bad news and good news," Sunset told her friends, "The bad news is that the killer is a demon shadow who is possessing someone and he is trying to cast a shadow upon all the realms." The girls stood in silence, all of them didn't know how to react to this.

"And the good news?" Fluttershy asked. Before Sunset could answer, two girls walked out of the statue. One was a light purple girl with purple long hair. The girl wore green shirt with a black vest and she wore a pink hat. The other girl was purple with deep purple hair and a pink line. The girl wore a blue shirt and a purple skirt. The main 7 recognized the two girls and hugged them as well.

"Princess Twilight, Starlight, it so good to see you again," Twilight smiled to them and turned to Sunset, "I don't think that even with Princess Twilight and Starlight, we'll be able to defeat the shadow demon." Before Sunset could assure her friend, another girl went through the portal. The girl was blue with rainbow colored hair. The girl wore the exact same clothes as Rainbow Dash. The girl fell on the floor as she was panicked by her hands and her eyes locked with Rainbow Dash. It was uncanny. Two Rainbow Dash

"This.." The girl said as her jaw fell to the floor. Her voice was identical to Rainbow's

"Is.." Rainbow walked toward her doppelganger and helped her to stand.

"AWESOME!!" the two girls said at the same time.


The girls could not believe their eyes. In front of them were themselves. Princess Twilight and Starlight helped their pony friends and showed them how to walk on back legs. It took some time, but the ponies finally understood that espcially Pinkie, it was like she did it before.

"That is so weird," Pony Applejack said as she and her double walked around each other, trying to spot any difference, but there was no difference. It was looking into a mirror.

"You get used to it," Twilight said as she and Princess Twilight smiled. The two Pinkies weren't so shocked to see each other. It looked like they already knew each other. Pony Rarity wasn't so terrified and more excited about the idea of two of her was too fun. The two designers talked about each world fashion. The two Fluttershys just stood in front of each other, both too shy to start to talk.

"So.." Sunset talked with Starlight, "How did you defeat the pony of shadows?"

"We talked to the darkness' host, Stygian, and we found out all the rage was about misunderstanding from the pillars."

Sunset laughed, "You telling me that Starswirl the bearded was wrong?" The thought was funny and Starlight understood the joke. The two laughed and the two groups had a good time. Until a scream shuttered the happy moment.

"It came out of the garden!" Sunset shouted and the 14 girls ran after her. The 14 girls arrived to see a green girl with a green long hair lying on the ground, fight to keep her heart beating. Sunset ran towards the girl and helped her to lean against a tree. " Wallflower, are you ok? Who did this to you?" Sunset asked as Wallflower coughed to her fist and blood came out of her mouth.

"A shadow," Wallflower started to talk as she stopped to cough, "A shadow, green stone, he is aware of who is using magic." With these words, Wallflower fell to the ground and her eyes were shut down.

" Call an ambulance!!"
