Shadow Stalker walk through the Everfree forest almost care free his heavy foot steps echoed around him as he started to walk through the forest on his normal stroll. Strangely there were no sounds like there normally was when he walked around this area. He wanted to see what was making it so quiet. He decided to walk through the forest some more and found nothing so he decided to give up and go back to his humble abode. He had set up shop in a cave atop the mountains he had a dragon to occupy under him. He had always had to keep quiet so with the mix of some dark and demon magic involved he created a soundproof barrier to keep the noise level to a minimum. He made his way up to his little cave and decided to turn on the fire. Using his Chaotic side he managed to make a little TV appear. It was no 60 inch but it would do.
He enjoyed watching the humans struggle with their economy while the rest of the world had no idea about it because of political issues and down sides to the matter. Being a demon he pitied the humans unaware when the end was near, only 30,000 more years until the end and for some reason he pitied them for being unaware. He remembered telling a human how long and he ended up shooting himself in the head for just telling that he would be dead by then.





After awhile he went to a little bed and curled up into a somewhat of a ball and went to sleep. He enjoyed sleeping it brought dreams that no one could ever explain but he never needed it he just enjoyed it. Hated when he would have the memories part he would always force himself awake when these dreams occurred he wanted to forget his life in hell he had. He walked out into the night sky he started to get hungry this world kinda making him act like he was mortal when he was not even close. He moved through the forest hunting for prey when a memory came to his thought again.

"While the light and the dark, heaven and hell are fighting we must remember we always have to keep fighting or chaos will break free from it's chains and we will become hopeless to stop it."

Shadow Stalker push the thought aside and decided to make his way thought the part of the forest that had the ruins. he always never could read the books there but he kept them in his cave for further study. He may be a demon but he still kept the thought of preservation over infestation if anything. He always thought that humanity should stay forever and see what would happen if the heavens should reveal themselves or not when they were ready. While some angle and demons alike agreed with his statement the gods and the devil frowned upon the idea. saying that it would take a millennium before they were ever ready. He had to say yes or else taking a risk to be called out for treason. After searching some more he found a deer munching on some grass he found his prey. He always made sure there was no baby or something family related or if it was going to have a baby. Again he would rather preserve life than take it. With the coast clear he made his move. His heavy foot steps went silent as he moved through the bushes, trees, and vines. He pounced onto it and shoved its hand through it's neck and ripping out the spine pulling the skull with it as the brain of it fell out of the skull. He may preserve life but if he needed to he make take t as brutally as possible. He had to kill humans in worse ways before but he would get to that later. He took his kill to his cave and cooked the meat as he feasted on the cooked flesh of the deer. 

He walked some more looking for some breakfast since the sun started to rise and found another group of rabbits and saw one big one that was a male and not a female thankfully. He got close until he stepped on a twig making the rabbit turn around and look at him in fear and soon a chase broke out between the creature of Shadows and a bunny. he chased it for what seemed like hours until he came across a clearing and stopped at the edge and saw a town of what looked like ponies which surprised him he had never been or even seen towns while he was here which was odd seeing how he lived just a few miles away.

He never wondered far from his home because he had no reason to this town was possibly a mile or 4 away from him judging how from from the mountain he was. He decided to forget the rabbit and move on to finding bigger prey and went back to his cave and think over this situation. 





A white Bunny was quickly hopping to a small cottage at the edge of the Everfree as fast as his little legs could take him until he got to the front door and banged as hard as he could. It opened to reveal a startle yellow pink Pegasus when she saw the state the bunny what in. 

"Oh, my, Angle are you alright?" She asked in a worried tone. The bunny shaking it's head no and start to make jesters that was trying to explain what happened. With a gasp the Pegasus soon tried to confirm what she hoped was wrong.

"There is a monster in the Everfree that eats anything?" she said with fear evident "I should tell the girls they will want to know." she said running as fast as her four legs would take her. She eventually gather her friends and explained the events with the occasional question from A lavender mare named Twilight Sparkle asking what it looked like. They seemed a little nervous about the description they were given by Flutter shy and were soon starting to want to get ride of it.
