"I think Sev might have an anger problem."
"I think you have an intelligence problem."
Sev and Scorch,arguing while fighting against the Trandoshian slavers on the RAS Prosecutor.
----------
It was morning in Ponyville,the sun shined brightly over the town of ponies and surprisingly, all of the ponies were up.
"Alright, now the finishing touch." Rarity said while straightening her elegant purple mane.
"Voila." She said while putting her comb back in her drawer. Now, what should I do about Sev, he seems nice and all, but there is something about him that doesn't quite appeal me.' Rarity thought, remembering last nights events.
*knock* *knock*
Rarity was cut off from her thoughts, when she heard a knock on the bathroom door.
"Who is it?" Rarity asked.
"It's me Rarity." Sweetiebelle replied.
"Oh, Sweetiebelle why are you and your friends not playing outside?" Rarity asked while walking towards the door.
"Well, Applebloom decided she wanted to go home and tell Applejack what happened." Sweetiebelle explained.
"And you suppose I believe that?" Rarity asked while opening the door. "Because I'm still going to tell Applejack about what you three did last night."
"Oh come on Rarity." Sweetiebelle whined. "Think of it this way, if we didn't go into the forest, then we wouldn't have found Sev."
"And if I didn't die on Kashyyyk, I would have never found you and you three would be still in that forest." Sev replied while walking towards Sweetiebelle.
"Oh Sev." Rarity said while walking past Sweetiebelle. "You're awake."
"Yeah, thanks for the bed, I needed that." Sev replied.
"That's alright darling, you're a guest and guests need to be treated with respect and dignity." Rarity said.
"Ok, but could we please go and find Thorn, I hate waiting." Sev said.
"Yes, but first." Rarity said while turning around. "Breakfast."
"I'm not hungry." Sev said. While
"Oh but I insist." Rarity while turning around.
"I said I'm not hungry." Sev said more sternly.
Rarity walked over towards Sev, until she was inches away from him.
"I insist." She said sternly.
Sev got on one knee and looked her in the eye. "I'm not hungry." Sev said.
Rarity bumped her muzzle against his helmet, grabbing it with her front hooves. "I. Insist." Rarity said.
"I've waited long enough." Sev said while grabbing his DC17s side arm pistol. "Now you better get me to Thorn, or I start killing things."
Rarity gulped and let go of him. "Y-You wouldn't do that to moi would you?" Rarity asked.
Sev got up and spun his pistol around. "I'll have to think about that."
"Sev." Sweetiebelle said while tugging his leg.
"What is it?" Sev asked.
"Uhm, I just wanna say thank you one more time." Sweetiebelle replied while hugging his leg.
"Daaaaw, that's so sweet of you Sweetiebelle." Rarity said.
Sweetiebelle blushed and let go of Sev's leg. "Rarity!" Sweetiebelle whined.
Rarity giggled. "You better watch out Sev, Sweetiebelle hasn't got a special somepony yet."
"Special somepony? Whatever that is, I'm not it." Sev said while holstering his blaster.
Sweetiebelle blushed even harder. "Stop it Rarity."
Rarity giggled. "Alright alright, how about this, we go to Fluttershy's cottage and find Thorn, and after that we return here for breakfast."
"Deal." Sev said.
"Alright." Rarity chimed. "Let's go!"
Sev nodded and walked beside Rarity, but stopped when she saw Sweetiebelle still standing by the bathroom door.
"Why isn't she coming with us?" Sev asked.
"She's grounded." Rarity replied.
"Grounded? That's it?" Sev asked.
"She's grounded for one week." Rarity replied, thinking Sev would see her as the 'big bad sister'.
Sev smirked underneath his helmet. "Time to have some fun."
"How about this." Sev said while pointing his index finger at Sweetiebelle. "She gets to come with us, or else I'm not going back for breakfast."
"I don't care if your not coming back for breakfast, I was just offering it." Rarity replied.
"Well you see." Sev said while pointing his thumb at himself. "If a clone would do something he wasn't supposed to do, he would have to go through intensive training."
"What are you getting at?" Rarity asked.
"Let her come with us and I'll make sure that she never sets foot near that forest, ever again." Sev replied.
Rarity looked at Sev and then back at her little sister. "I'm not sure, how do I know your not lying?"
"I'm a clone Commando, I never lie." Sev lied.
"Alright, I trust you." Rarity said while facing Sweetiebelle. "Sweetiebelle, you're not grounded anymore, instead you'll be spending a day with Sev."
Sweetiebelles ears perked up at hearing this. "Really?!" She asked with glee.
Rarity smiled. "Yes, really."
Sweetiebelle made an adorable squeak and ra towards her sister, she launched herself at her sister and gave her a bone crushing hug.
Rarity hugged her back. "Sweetiebelle, you should be thanking Sev instead."
Sweetiebelle let go of her sister and instead, launched herself at Sev.
Sev watched as the filly wrapped her legs around his torso. Sev mentally sighed, but he returned the favor by patting her on her back.
Sev grabbed Sweetiebelle and put her down.
"Wow, I was so big when you picked me up, could you do that again?" Sweetiebelle asked.
"No." Sev replied.
Sweetiebelle pouted. "You're no fun."
Sev sighed and picked her up, placing her on his shoulder. "How's that?"
Sweetiebelle squeaked again. "This is so cool, I'm bigger than Rarity!"
Rarity smiled. 'Maybe I was wrong about him, Sweetiebelle seems to really like him.'
"Sev, could I stay like this until we reach Fluttershy's cottage?" Sweetiebelle asked.
Sev mentally shot himself. "Yes, but only this once."
Sweetiebelle hugged his neck. "Thank you! Your so cool and nice and cool and--."
"Ahem. I think we should head to Fluttershy's cottage." Rarity said.
Sev nodded. "Lead the way."
Rarity nodded and walked downstairs, with Sev following her,
After a minute, they reached the boutique.
"Alright." Rarity said while walking towards the boutiques entrance. "Since everypony knows who Thorn is, they shouldn't be startled when they see you."
Sev cocked an eyebrow. "Wait, are you telling me Thorn had an introduction?"
"Yes, and Pinkie Pie is going to throw him a party tonight." Rarity replied.
"Oh, that's.. Fun I guess." Sev said.
Rarity cocked an eyebrow. "Is something wrong?"
"No". Sev replied while walking towards the door. "Just thinking about.... My brothers."
Rarity gave him a compassionate look. "But Thorn is your brother to, isn't he?"
"Yes, but I don't know him, I only met him once." Sev replied while lowering his head. "But with Delta Squad, I had something special, we were more than clones, more than brothers, we were.... Friends."
Rarity felt a nudge in her throat, she wanted to speak, but couldn't get herself to do it. She couldn't possibly understand what he was going through, he was alone, something Rarity; rarely was.
"Sev." Sweetiebelle said.
Sev slowly turned his head towards her. "What?"
"I'm sure Thorn can be your friend." She said while hugging his neck. "And I'm your friend to."
Sev couldn't help but smile a little. He brought hid hand up to her and gently patted her head.
Rarity smiled. "Sev."
Sev turned his head and looked at her. "What is it Rarity?"
'He said my name.' Rarity thought. "Know that, if you ever need help, my door is always open."
Sev nodded. "Thanks, but I don't need help, the only help I need, is this." Sev said while patting his DC17m, which was currently hanging from his ammo belt.
Rarity chuckled. "Yes, I suppose you are right."
"Let's get going." Sev said while walking towards the door.
"Yes." Rarity said while eyeing Sev once more. "Let's."
And so, the trio walked out of the boutique, ready to take Sev to his 'brother'.
****
As Sev, Sweetiebelle and Rarity walked through Ponyville, they would sometimes get strange looks from the ponies, but most would just shrug and continue what they were doing.
They had passed the town hall, even getting the chance to introduce Sev to Mayor Mare, much to Sev's dismay. When they had told the Mayor that Sev had helped Sweetiebelle and the other two crusaders get out of the forest alive, left a good first impression on Mayor Mare.
So they walked and walked, Sev was trying to keep his calm, but all of the bright colors were making him go crazy.
'Have to keep calm.' Sev thought.
It wasn't helping that Sweetiebelle was asking him constant questions about him, like why his armor was painted red instead of pink, or why he has such a low voice while Thorn doesn't. It was starting to annoy him, it was almost as bad as Scorch's practical jokes.
"What is that?" Sev asked while pointing at a fast flying object.
Rarity looked at; what Sev was pointing at, when she got a good look of who it was, she smiled.
"That would be Rainbow Dash." Rarity replied.
"Rainbow what now?" Sev asked.
"Rainbow Dash." Rarity repeated. "She's a pegasi, meaning that she can fly."
"Flying is easy." Sev said while watching Rainbow Dash hover towards him. "Landing is hard."
"Not for Rainbow Dash." Rarity said. "She has only crashed one or two times from what I've heard"
"Hey Rarity!" Rainbow Dash said while landing in front of her.
"Rainbow Dash darling, how are you today?" Rarity asked.
"Awesome as ever." Rainbow Dash replied while flapping her wings. "Cleared the sky in ten seconds flat."
Rainbow Dash looked at Sev.
"Thorn?" Rainbow Dash said while hovering in front of Sev's face. "Is that you? You look different, but I think it suits you better."
"Rainbow Dash, that is not Thorn." Rarity said.
"Of course it's Thorn, he's the only clone in Equestria remember?" Rainbow Dash asked.
"Well, not anymore." Sev said.
"Gaah! "Rainbow Dash exclaimed while stumbling backwards. "W-What's up with your voice Thorn?"
"I'm not Thorn, my name is Sev." Sev replied.
"Sev?" Rainbow Dash repeated while holding a hoof to her chin. "That name sounds really familiar."
"It's because he's part of Delta Squad, he's a Republic Commando." Sweetiebelle chimed in.
Rainbow Dash her eyes seemed to widen. "You're a Republic Commando?"
"Yes." Sev replied.
"And you're part of Delta Squad, the most awesome squad ever?" Rainbow Dash asked.
"Uhm, I don't know what Thorn has been telling you, but in my opinion, all Commandos are 'awesome'."Sev replied.
"This is so awesome!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed with a high pitched voice. "You, a Commando, here in Equestria, in front of me."
"Rainbow Dash, you don't even know him, or any other clones like him, you only know him because Thorn told you about him." Rarity said.
"Oh, your right." Rainbow Dash replied with a sheepish smile.
Sev groaned. "What's the hold up?" He asked with annoyance.
"Where are you heading anyway?" Rainbow Dash asked.
"Where heading to Fluttershy's cottage, we need to get Sev to Thorn." Rarity replied.
"Alright!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed while doing a backflip. "I'll go with you."
"Sure, the more ponies, the more fun." Rarity said.
"Let's get moving." Sev ordered.
"Jeez, what's your problem?" Rainbow Dash asked.
"My 'problem' is that we're not moving fast enough." Sev replied.
"Not fast enough huh?" Rainbow Dash asked with a hint of mock.
"Yeah, not fast enough." Sev said.
"Well, it so happens to be that I'm the most awesome and fastest pegasus in all of Equestria." Rainbow Dash said with a hint of pride.
"And it so happens that I don't give a klark about your reputation, or anything else for that matter." Sev replied while pushing Rainbow Dash aside. "Now get lost boy."
"Boy?" Rainbow Dash said while flying in front of Sev. "Did you just call me a boy?"
"Yeah your voice sounds like that of a boy, maybe you had a gender change, kind of strange though, never seen a boy with that kind of hair before." Sev said while chuckling.
"Why you." Rainbow Dash said while squeezing her eyes. "You better take that back you, you--."
"Or what? You're going to kill me?" Sev asked.
"What?!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed. "No, why would I do that?"
"Sorry, forgot that I was talking to a child that thinks she's hot stuff or something." Sev said while walking past Rainbow Dash.
"Oh yeah?" Rainbow Dash asked while grabbing hold of Sev's helmet. "Thorn has this awesome scarr because he did something awesome, I bet you don't have that." Rainbow Dash said while trying to remove Sev's helmet.
Sev grabbed hold of Rainbow Dash her hooves and threw her into the air.
Rainbow Dash quickly flapped her wings and regained her balance.
"You'll pay for that!" Rainbow Dash shouted while flying towards Sev with incredible speed.
Sev grabbed his DC17m and aimed it at Rainbow Dash. Rainbow Dash quickly saw this and slowed down.
"S-Sev, no need to do that." Rarity said nervously.
Sev pulled the trigger, a laser shot out of his blaster. Rainbow Dash closed her eyes and prepared for the worst.
She heard the laser zoom past her, but it didn't hit her.
Rainbow Dash opened her eyes and checked her body for any injuries, but luckily for her there were none.
She looked at Sev and saw that he had lowered his weapon.
Rainbow Dash flew towards Sev and stopped when she was inches away from his face.
"What was that for huh?!" She shouted.
"That was a warning, the next one will go straight through your head." Sev replied.
"Sev darling, Fluttershy's cottage is just a few more minutes away from here. "Rarity said.
"Please don't be mad at Rainbow Dash." Sweetiebelle said.
Sev looked at Rainbow Dash and walked past her. "Let's get going." He ordered.
Rarity sighed. "Wait for me Sev."
Sweetiebelle shook her head and walked after her sister. 'What's wrong with you Sev? You were so nice yesterday.'
Rainbow Dash puffed and followed Rarity and the Commando. "Stupid Sev." She mumbled.
****
"There it is!" Rarity said while walking toward Fluttershy's cottage.
'Finally.' Sev thought while running towards the cottage.
"Hey wait up!" Sweetiebelle shouted while trotting after Sev. "I'm not as fast as you."
Sev didn't listen, he ran as fast as he could towards Fluttershy's cottage.
Sev stopped running when he saw a familiar clone walk out of the cottage, followed by a yellow pegasus.
"Thank you for your hospitality Fluttershy." Thorn said while saving Fluttershy.
Fluttershy smiled. "Thank you for saving my life."
"Commander Thorn!" Sev shouted.
Thorn's ears perked up. "Who's there?" He asked while getting up.
But who Thorn saw, shocked him, it wasn't a pony, no this was a clone like him and a very famous one too.
"Sir?" Thorn asked while walking towards Sev. After a minute, Sev and him were face to face.
"Commander, status report." Sev said.
"Sir!" Thorn said while saluting. "I arrived here a few days ago, I stopped an enemy threat towards the kingdom of Canterlot, I was honored by the two Princesses and from what I know." Thorn said while moving his head towards Sev's." I'm dead sir."
"So, you to huh?" Sev asked.
Thorn's eyes widened at Sev's question. "Sir, don't tell me you...."
"I died on Kashyyyk, piece of metal struck me and I died from blood loss." Sev replied.
Thorn's eyes widened underneath his helmet. "It can't be."
Sev sighed. "Commandos are not indestructible Commander, just because we've had better training doesn't mean we can't die."
"Wait you died?!" Rainbow Dash asked.
Thorn and Sev looked up and saw that Rainbow Dash was hovering above them.
Thorn sighed. "Not good."
"I'll double that." Sev added.
"What's going on?" Fluttershy asked while hovering towards Thorn. When she laid eyes on Sev, she cowered back in fear.
Thorn saw this and gave a pat on her back. "Don't worry Fluttershy, this is Sev, he's one of those Commandos I told you about; during our time in the train."
"Oh." Fluttershy said. She smiled and held her hoof out. "My name is Fluttershy, nice to meet you."
Sev grabbed her hoof and shook it. "A pleasure ma'am."
Fluttershy blushed a faint shade of pink. "Oh, just Fluttershy will do."
Sev shrugged. "So, how did you get KIA?"
"Droids came out of nowhere and overrun us, my entire platoon was killed and I was the only one left, eventually I died as well." Thorn replied.
Sev gave Thorn a pat on his shoulder. "Welcome to the land of the dead."
"Dead?!" Fluttershy exclaimed. "What are you talking about, death isn't something you should be talking about."
Sev chuckled. "Listen here, I'm going to get straight to the point: Thorn and I are dead, we died fighting against The Separatists, end of story."
Fluttershy's eyes widened at hearing this. She looked at Thorn. "Is i-it true?"
Thorn sighed. "Yes."
Sev laughed. "You know, I always thought the afterlife would be weird, but this is defiantly not what I expected."
Suddenly faint sobbing could be heard from behind Sev, Sev turned around and saw that Sweetiebelle was crying.
Sweetiebelle. Rarity said while bringing her in for a hug. "Shhhhh, don't cry.*
Sev shook his head and looked at Rainbow Dash. "You just couldn't keep your mouth shut, could you?"
"I-I'm sorry." Rainbow Dash said.
"T-Thorn, are you r-really dead?" Fluttershy asked.
Thorn sighed. "Yes Fluttershy, I don't know how, but I'm one hundred percent certain I died on Scipio."
"Scipio?" Fluttershy asked.
"The planet were I died on." Thorn replied.
Sev looked at Sweetiebelle, he felt kinda bad for the kid. "She's young, death shouldn't concern her." Sev said.
"I know sir I know." Thorn said while walking towards Sweetiebelle. He bend down and spoke up.
"Hey, don't cry Sweetiebelle, there's no need to." Thorn said comfortably.
"But y-you *sob* said i-it yourself, you *sob* died a-and you--."
Sweetiebelle couldn't even finish her sentence, she began to cry into her sister. Thorn felt really bad for her, but he couldn't blame Rainbow Dash for it, she was just curious.
"Sev." Rainbow Dash said while tugging his arm.
"What?" Sev asked angrily.
"Listen, I don't usually do this but.... I'm really sorry for the way I acted to you a few minutes ago." Rainbow Dash said while lowering her head. "It's just that I was really curious and I guess that got the better of me."
Sev sighed. "Normally, I would have killed someone who acted to me the way you did, but I accept your apology."
Rainbow Dash smiled. "So friends?"
Sev grabbed her hoof and shook it. "Friends."
Rainbow Dash smiled at him.
"Uhm, e-excuse me?" She asked while tugging Sev's arm.
"Yes?" Sev asked while facing her.
"Would you uhm.... Maybe want to come inside my cottage and uhm maybe have something to d-drink?" Fluttershy asked.
"Sure". Sev said while walking past her.
Meanwhile, Thorn had gotten Sweetiebelle to stop crying by telling her her; that he was alive now and that it was going to be alright.
"Uhm, Thorn." Rainbow Dash said while tugging his back.
"Yes Rainbow Dash?" Thorn asked.
"Sev and Fluttershy are going inside her cottage to get some drinks, Sev told me that I had to tell you; to come with him." Rainbow Dash said.
Thorn nodded and got back up. "Alright, everyone we're going to Fluttershy's cottage." Thorn announced.
"Oh, but Fluttershy has animals in there, filthy animals that lay in the dirt and--."
"Alright, you can stay outside while we go in then." Thorn said while walking away from her.
"Wait for me!" Rainbow Dash shouted while flying after him.
"Rarity." Sweetiebelle said while tugging her sister.
"Yes Sweetiebelle?" Rarity asked.
"Let's go inside." Sweetiebelle suggested.
Rarity sighed. "Well, I'd rather be 'inside' than 'outside'." Rarity said while walking towards Fluttershy's cottage.
Sweetiebelle smiled and followed her sister.
Five minutes later......
"Nice little home she's got here." Sev said while standing beside Thorn. "Being this close to the forest means you don't have to carry your prey for miles."
"Sir, this might seem strange but I think the inhabitants of this planet are Herbivores." Thorn said.
"..... You're kidding right?" Sev asked.
"Sir no sir, I'm pretty sure about that." Thorn replied.
"Here you go." Fluttershy said while handing Sev and Thorn two cups of water.
"Thanks Fluttershy." Thorn said while grabbing the cup and removing his helmet.
"Whoa." Sweetiebelle said in awe. "So that's what you look like."
"Yep." Thorn replied while taking a sip of his water. "Sir, why aren't you drinking?" He asked Sev, who was currently looking at the cup of water.
"I'm not fond of taking my helmet of in pubic." Sev replied.
"But Thorn said you all look the same." Sweetiebelle said.
"I know, but I'm not taking it of, no matter how much you beg for me to do it." Sev said.
Sweetiebelle pouted. "Alright."
"So, about your 'deaths'." Rainbow Dash said.
"Rainbow Dash!" Rarity exclaimed while covering Sweetiebelles ears. "There is a filly here, remember?"
"It's alright Rarity." Sweetiebelle said while shaking her head." I know Thorn and Sev are safe here, so I-I think I'll be fine, but if it gets too scary, I'll go outside or cover my ears."
"Are you sure?" Rarity asked with a hint of concern.
"Yeah, I'll be fine." Sweetiebelle said.
"That kid's young." Sev whispered to Thorn. "But she's tough, I'll give her that."
Thorn smiled. "Commando material sir?" He asked.
Sev chuckled. "With a lot of training and exercise, I think she'd be able to pull it of."
"Really sir?" Thorn asked.
"No trooper, not a chance." Sev replied.
Thorn chuckled. "You know sir, out of all the clones that could have shown up here, you were the one to show up."
"Yeah, I wonder how the war is going." Thorn said.
"We're probably winning, from what I've heard, The Separatists are being pushed to their limits." Sev replied.
"Really?" Thorn asked.
Sev nodded
"That's amazing." Thorn said.
"So, about your 'stories'." Rainbow Dash said while hovering in front of Thorn.
"Sit down and I'll tell you." Thorn replied.
Rainbow Dash squealed and sat down in front of Thorn.
Thorn smiled and sat down on the ground, while Sev leaned against the wall.
Rarity, Sweetiebelle and Fluttershy joined the: Story telling circle and waited for Thorn to begin.
"Alright, this is what happened to me, I'm warning you, this is not a nice story." Thorn warned them.
They all nodded in response.
"Alright, it all happened on a planet called: Scipio......"
And so, Thorn began to tell them everything that had happened that night, from his mission to escort Senator Amidala, to his final stand against the Separatist garrison.
During his story, all of the ponies went silent, listen to his sad story. Fluttershy even went so far, as to snuggle up against Thorn's side.
Sev also listen carefully to his story, he was impressed that Thorn was able to pull that kind of stunt of.
"And that's what happened before I arrived in Equestria." Thorn said.
"Wow, that's a lot to take in." Fluttershy said.
"Yeah, sorry you ehm... Died Thorn." Rainbow Dash said.
"Thorn, if what you told us is true." Sev said while patting him on the back. "Then the only thing I can say is: Well done soldier."
Thorn got up and saluted. "Thank you sir."
"At ease soldier." Sev said.
"Yes sir." Thorn replied.
"Alright, now I'm not going to lie about this." Sev said while leaning his back against the wall. "My death was a whole lot worse than Thorn's."
"How can it be worse than that?" Rarity asked while shuddering.
"It just is." Sev replied while crossing his arms. "I think you should take your little sister back home Rarity."
"What?! Why?!" Sweetiebelle whined.
"Listen, I don't want to traumatize you, so just do what I tell you and go home." Sev replied.
"No, your not my father, so I won't!" Sweetiebelle snapped at him.
"Sev, I agree with her, if she wants to hear your story, let her." Rainbow Dash said.
Sev sighed. "Don't say I didn't warn you."
"Don't worry." Sweetiebelle said while smuggling against her sister. "I won't."
"Alright, here we go....."
And so, Sev began to tell his story, his battle against the Super Battle droids, his fight against the Magnaguard and of course the fight against the Spider droid. His death was something all of the ponies, even Thorn gasped at.
"And that's what happened." Sev said finishing his story.
"Wow, that's... A lot to take in, I mean you getting impaled by a huge piece of metal and then simply pull it out." Rainbow Dash said while wiping away a few tears.
To be honest, everypony cried when Sev told his story, even Thorn felt really bad for him.
'He died slow and painfully.' Thorn thought. 'I died quick and almost painless.'
"Rarity." Sweetiebelle said.
"Yes Sweetiebelle?" Rarity replied.
"Could we go home for breakfast?" Sweetiebelle asked.
"Well, breakfast has turned into: a afternoon snack." Rarity replied.
"Yeah, it's half past three." Fluttershy said while looking at her clock.
"We've been talking for four hours straight." Thorn said while grabbing his helmet.
"Yeah, Scorch would have loved this place." Sev said.
"Sev, we are going back to the boutique, you can come with us, if you want." Rarity said.
"What are you going to do Commander?" Sev asked.
"Well, I was going to go to Twilight, apparently Fluttershy got a letter from her, telling me to visit her at the library as fast as possible." Thorn replied.
"Well that settles it then." Sev said.
"What do you mean sir?" Thorn asked confused.
"I'll be going with you Commander." Sev said while patting him on the back.
Sev turned to Sweetiebelle and spoke up. "I haven't forgot the promise I made your sister, tomorrow we start your training."
"But it's Sunday tomorrow." Sweetiebelle whined.
Sev smirked underneath his helmet. "Training doesn't wait kid."
****
Fifteen minutes later.........
Inside the Ponyville library, Twilight Sparkle was preparing everything for Thorn's visit.
"Spike!" Twilight shouted.
"What is it Twilight?" Spike asked while cleaning the dust from another book.
"Where are my extra quills?" Twilight asked.
"I laid them on the table, like you told me to do just ten seconds ago." Spike replied.
"Oh I'm sorry Spike, it's just that I'm so nervous." Twilight said.
"Nervous? About a simple meet and greet?" Spike asked confused.
"Spike, Thorn is a hero, I don't know which questions I can ask him and which not." Twilight replied nervously.
"Don't worry Twilight." Spike said while walking over to her. "I'm sure Thorn is just as nervous as you a--."
*knock* *knock*
"Oh no, that must be him, I haven't even triple checked my quills yet." Twilight said while biting her hoof.
Spike rolled his eyes and walked towards the door.
"Spike wait!" Twilight shouted while teleporting in front of him.
"What is it now Twilight?" Spike asked.
"I'll get the door, while you triple check the quills." Twilight replied.
Spike groaned. "Twilight, there's nothing wrong with your quills, just open the door and let Thorn 'enter' first."
Twilight inhaled deeply. "Alright here I go."
Twilight her horn started glowing and a purple aura covered the doorknob, the doorknob twisted and the door opened.
The first to enter was: Rainbow Dash?
"Hi Twilight." Rainbow Dash said while flying past her.
"Rainbow Dash? What are you--."
"Hi Twilight!" Sweetiebelle cut her off, while entering the library.
"Sweetiebelle? What's going on?" Twilight asked confused.
"Twilight darling." Rarity said while entering the library.
Spike's eyes lit up when he heard the voice of her crush.
"Rarity!" Spike said while walking towards the fashion mare.
"My little Spiky Wikey." Rarity said while giving Spike a hug.
"Spiky Wikey? That's your nickname Spike?" Thorn asked while entering the library.
"Hi Thorn!" Spike said.
Oh hi Thorn, how are you doing today? Twilight asked.
"I'm good thank you." Thorn replied while walking past her. "But there is someone I want you to meet."
"Really? Who is it?" Twilight asked curiously.
Fluttershy entered the library. "Uhm, h-hi Twilight." Fluttershy whispered.
"Thorn, I know who Fluttershy is." Twilight said in a as a matter of factly tone.
"That's not the 'person' I wanted you to meet." Thorn replied.
Twilight gave Thorn a confused look. I dont follow.
"Twilight, let me introduce you to: Republic Commando Sev, member of Delta Squad and best sniper out there." Thorn said while pointing at the library door.
Suddenly, a white bipedal figure came walking into the library, it's face and armor covered in; what appeared to be splatters of blood.
Twilight her mouth hung open from total shock.
The figure closed the door behind him and walked towards Twilight.
The figure stopped when it was a few inches away from Twilight, ot lowered its head and spoke up, with the lowest, threatening voice Twilight had ever heard.
"Hello."
And with that said, Twilight fainted.
The figure looked at Twilight and spoke up.
"I just killed someone without even trying, that's something new."
