Destiny: The Five

by THOSEideas


Adrift: Dorish Manik

Dorish Manik pulled out his heavy machine gun and unloaded all eighty bullets into the thick skull of the beast as it ran faster towards them. If Shin didn't take the shot soon then Eris would die as well. Dorish threw down his empty weapon and pulled out his shot gun. Dorish didn't bother aiming as the Beast was so close there was no way he could miss. Dorish popped two shells into the chest of the Beast and couldn't squeeze off anymore because of the explosion that knocked his gun out of his hands. Dorish looked behind him and saw the rocks tumbling down towards him, Shin had done it. Dorish closed his eyes and waited for the crushing impact of the rocks falling on him...

Dorish felt so cold, was this what hell felt like? Dorish openned his eyes to see the moon in its full glory as he floated through space.

"Hey Ghost? What happened?"

"It appears that we have been teleported to an entirely different galaxy, maybe universe."

"Oh...nothing special then? Huh, thought that maybe I would have died, guess not. So um, I'm going to freeze to death, that sucks."

"Yes Titan, you are going to freeze, any famous last words?"

"Hmmm...not yet."

"Shall I shut off your heating unit so that you have the possibility of being revived? Although I doubt you will be found, seeing as we are not going to be seen by anything that understands your body."

"Meh, better then slowly freezing and suffering. Yeah...shut off my heating system."

Dorish could hear the click as the heating was cut off, he then felt the full force of the vacuum that surrounded him.

"H-H-Hey G-Ghost-t-t? T-T-Thanks f-for e-everything, but y-you are s-still a b-basterd."

"No problem Guardian, I will watch over your body then travel around until I find a suitable replacement. It seems you are going to end up on the moon after all."

"F-F-Funnnnyyyyee...."

"Good night gaurdian."


Slaughter them
Burn them
Eat their hearts
Gone? Where?
After them!
Feed on their flesh
Good my child
Kill all creatures in your way
Eat them, feast
Find the Human
Destroy the Light
Cast the planet in Darkness
Feed, Feed, FEED!!

Celestia gasped and sat up in her bed breathing heavily, that was either a nightmare or a vision. Luna burst through the door and stood there looking at Celestia.

"What was the Vision?"

"It...It was of a voice, a terrible one, one that sought only to destroy. It was commanding something, It commanded something to kill a Human, filled with Light."

Celestia looked up at each other as they both knew who the voice was talking about...

"Shin..."


Shin was sitting at in a bar, and observing everything that went on around him. Currently he was sitting in the rafters where all the strobe lights and all the electrical stuff was. Below him was an oblivious two hundred ponies as they all danced and drank together. The only pony that knew he was here was the DJ, if thats what you would call her. She produced some funky music that had a very high bass, it was so high that it rattled his bones. If his leg had still been broken then the bass would have jiggled all the loose bone fragments and caused him excruciating pain.

He was invisible and watching because the DJ had asked for extra protection. She had asked for a guard because she had recieved a death threat and was worried. Before the Princesses could order someone to go, he had offered, he was tired of being confined in that castle. He was also glad to get away from the ponies because after that loooooong talk he had had with Celestia and Luna he was now asked questions by all sorts of ponies.

Shin just shook his head and continued to watch the crowd as they moved and swayed to the beat, he will admit it wasn't bad music. Shin turned his focus back on the DJ as she was completely focused on her job she hadn't noticed the pony that snuck through the shadows towards her, shin only noticed the pony because its coat gave him away as he walked in front of the back enterance exit sign.

Shin got onto his two feet and crouch walked along the skinny rafters until he was above the DJ, ready to act if he needed to. The pony approached the DJ and pulled what could only be described as a knife, so much for that. Shin was about to drop down but stopped when the back door openned to reveal a two legged skinny being that didn't hesitate to pounce on the nearest pony, which happened to be the would be assassin. The being immediately tore out the ponies throat and ate the flesh, it then ran on all fours to another pony and sliced open that ponies throat spewing blood everywhere.

This had all happened in two seconds, the time it had taken Shin to fall to the ground and pull out his gun. Shin knew exactly what had killed those two ponies, it was a Thrall, a servant to the Hive. Shin took one shot and exploded the Thrall's brains all over the surrounding ponies, then the thrall hit the floor from its attempted jump at a pony, which happened to be the DJ. Shin walked to the body and stomped on its spine, breaking it. The Thrall then started to disintagrate, its life force crumbiling to ash.

Shin looked up from the pile of ash and looked around at the ponies that were looking at him out of pure terror and amazement. Shin holstered his weapon and walked out of the building through the back exit. The Darkness had found Equestria, that was not good news.


Princess Luna sat in her room and observed the sleeping spirits that surrounded her, they were all peaceful. She was happy to sit there and watch over her ponies, they all deserved a good nights sleep. Luna took a moment to look up at her beloved moon, it hung peacefuly in the sky and shone its soft light down on Equestria.

Luna was slightly worried about Celestia's vision but was determined to not let that effect her. So instead she gazed up at her loving moon. Luna felt a sharp pain in her head. Luna gasped and stared up at the moon with a more critical eye, if she focused she could pick out small details on the moon's surface, but only on the moon. If what she had felt was true then she had to find it quick bedore it faded.

She found it, and she couldn't believe it. She needed to find Shin, now.


Shin sprinted through the streets of caterlot dodging looks and stares that ponies gave him as he passed by. So much for secrecy. Shin ran and vaulted over the back of a pony as it stepped out in front of him, geez look both ways. Shin ducked a pony threw a pot at him, wow, 'look an alien! Must be hostile! Quick get the pots!' Genius. Shin had to blink through a wagon as it attempted to block his path from getting to the castle. Needless to say, these ponies were desperate to keep him from getting to the castle. Shin kept running as he teleported and landed squarely on his feet.

Shin made it to the gates that had two guards blocking the entrance, unfortunately these were not guards that had known about him so as soon as they saw him they threw there spears at him. Really? Shin dodged on easily and the other one blunced off his shoulder, bruising it. The two guards buched up and prepared to fight him as he approached. Shin was ten feet away from the door when he jumped and kicked one of the guards in the jaw, hard enough to change Shin's trajectory in mid-air. Shin used his blink, teleporting him inside the castle.

Shin hadn't planned to fall on his left shoulder or slide across the waxed floor to slam into the wall, but he did. He DID plan to get inside the castle with haste and find the princesses and tell them what he had found. So when he got up from his position and ran off down one of the halls to find them, the two guards from outside chasing him only helped speed him up. Shin looked over hos shoulder to see both of them sprinting after him, damn ponies are fast. Shin rounded a corner just in time to turn invisible and hide.

When the two guards rounded the corner they only found an empty hall with no rooms. They immediately started searching behind every curtain and vase, trying to find him in vain. Shin smiled as he stood up from his position in the middle of the hall, hiding in plain sight. He then sprinted off back down the hall and continued his search for the Princesses.

Shin rounded a corner to see the door into the court room, better place then any to start. Shin ran to the door and blinked through it, that thing is so useful. Shin teleported into a room that had three ponies dressed in suits standing before Celestia who was sitting in her throne, looking impossing as ever.

"Enough chit-chat, Celestia I got something pretty damn important to tell you."

Shin paused his jog towrds the throne when the three ponies turned around to see an alien standing in front of them. Two fainted on the spot and the one on the far left peed himself.

"Wow, am I that scary? I mean I get that you don't know what I can do to you but kids don't even faint when they see me. They just point and stare in wonder.

"Oh Celestia! It talks..."

The last pony's eyes rolled into his head and he fainted, laying in his puddle of pee.

"Really? Anyway Celestia we have to find Luna."

"Thank goodness you came when you did...they were endlessly chatting on about something that I don't care to remember. Lets go find Luna. Oh, there she is."

Luna burst through the doors and stopped, huffing for breath in front of the two of them. She took a minute to regain breath and finally managed to speak.

"Boy, am I out of shape, Anyway. Shin! There is a man on the moon!"

Shin stared at the Alicorn for a couple of seconds before he realized that she was talking about a real, physical man, not just craters.

"Wait...what? How? Show me!"

In the excitement he completely forgot about the Hive and the Darkness that was slowly approaching Equestria. What ponies were blissfuly unaware of was that the Darkness had already planted the first seeds of death on the planet. It had begun its nest in a suitable place, and it had found a native ally, what that was very powerful and was to be feared. Together, Equestria would fall.
