"I've to be sure that you won't attack me. Before I tell you this." he said.
The ponies inside the room looked at each other and nodded simultaneously.
"Oh right." he started "To begin with, my name is Andrew. And as far as you can tell I'm not from here. I'm a human, the dominant race of a planet called EARTH. Well, what I'm trying to say is, you ponies are in danger." he continued.
"Why? Why are we in danger?" Twilight asked.
"Well, recently our company changed its boss." he said
They looked at him with a confused look.
He sighed "It's someone who tells you what to do. And if you don't do the things by his way you will be fired." he explained.
They hummed in unison.
"So you understand it right?" he asked.
They nodded.
"Well like I was saying my new boss, got this idea of kidnapping ponies and use their magical powers to store energy so we won't need to waste money on building things that let us store energy"
"Well, that isn't so bad." Pinkie said.
Everyone looked at her with a confused look.
"What am I that crazy?" she asked.
"Nevermind." he answered "The problem is we used to use you by your free will. We called you, we engaged you, disgusted as ponies and drove you to our dimension to help us producing energy. Your energy could be used to energize all our world for half a year. Which means your power is twice as strong than our most stronger energy source we know. But after my father passed away and this guy took his place, we started to kidnapping or ponynapping I don't know the word I could use. But basically, we capture you and use your power against your will, which could cause in your death. That way we could have the energy for a whole year. That way is inhuman and against our first contract." he finished. "That's why I escaped and when I heard that a new portal was coming I got a place and I was able to obtain this talisman and inform you about what we are doing there."
They looked at each other and finally agreed in believing him.
"We believe that you are telling the truth." Twilight said.
"But... I think you're missing a point there." Shadow Night said.
Everyone looked confused.
"I might believe in you, but... I'm a Shadow Pony. I know when people talk the true but... there's something more. Would you care to explain a little more before I use my power of Captain of Night Guard to send you to our dungeons?"
"You wouldn't do that." Zecora opposed. "This guy might be different from us, but he surely sacrificed himself to come to us and warn us about this, don't you think."
"Pff, Zecora. I thought that you better than anypony would know what I mean." he said. "Don't you find it strange that THIS GUY only gets here now after he told us that they're ponynapping us. Don't you think if he really cares about this would contact us immediately? So, any word in your defense my friend ?" he asked.
"You might be right in one point, why did I come now and not when they started but the problem was I never got a chance." he defended himself.
"Never got a chance. That's the worst excuse I've heard. Do you think I believe that?" he asked.
"Of course not. They are very strict in terms of travel between dimensions, especially with this one. After the contract that was made with HIM." he explained.
"HIM, who?" Shadow Night asked.
"The same guy that gave the mission of annihilating all alicorns to your brother." he answered.
Shadow Night ignited his horn and jumped towards the bipedal creature pinning him to the ground. "How... HOW? How did you know that?" he asked.
"Well. We needed you for our plan to complete. That guy gave you the task to take our greater weakness the alicorns." he answered. "Poor brother had his mind filled with grieve and pain because he was betrayed by his queen that wanted to kill every alicorn but that never happened. He left queen Crystaline alive, and you felt in love with the Princess of the Night. The two of you were the secret weapons of his but you saw thought his plans."
"Give me one reason to not blast you towards the atmosphere." he threatened.
"Because I'm your only chance of survival. These guys are forming a large army to capture all of you. None of you will escape their grasp."
"And why did he needs the ponies after all?" Shadow Night asked.
"To gain power in order to return and conquer this world." he answered. "We capture the ponies and in return, he gives us their magical essence as an energy source for us to use."
"And why he needed the alicorns out and us on his side?" he asked.
"Because alicorns are too powerful and because of your TRUE FORM." he answered. "Now if you excuse me. I want you to get away from me."
Shadow Night sighed and got away from him. "I need to return to Canterlot. For now, I will believe in you. But broke my trust." He ignited his horn and blast the chair near the bipedal creature.
Shadow Night teleports himself away from Zecora house.
"Don't mind him. He almost lost Luna in the past. He will behave like this when there's a new creature that he considers a threat." Zecora explained.
"I won't judge him. But acting this way towards a guy that is trying to help." he said.
