Twilight was in her castle's library reading one of the many book that lined its shelves as her number one assistant Spike was napping in a chair next to the fire place. Both were enjoying the peace and quiet of the day relaxing for the first time in a month since Tirek's attack and they thought nothing could ruin this calming silence up until Pinkie Pie wearing a pink shirt with her cutie mark on it and skinny jeans burst through the door like a cannonball with a look that said she got no sleep last night.
"Well so much for peace and quiet. Good morning Pinkie what can I do for- whoa umm Pinkie are you ok? You look tired and that doesn't usually happen to you." Twilight said walking up to Pinkie tightening the light purple robe she was wearing.
"Morning Twi. Do you have spells for magic detection and uncloaking?" Asked Pinkie as she took a seat on the floor.
"I know three variations of each spell but why do you need them?"
"A new pony entered Ponyville yesterday afternoon but I can't find him or her and I search the whole town all night and I couldn't find them."
"Wait somepony entered the town and you couldn't find them? Well, that's a first. Okay why not give me a minute to change into some good clothes." Twilight walked to her room, leaving Pinkie with the still napping Spike. After seven minutes, she walked back in with a note and wearing a dark purple shirt and black jeans that had her cutie mark on them. "Ok lets go."
Both mares walked outside. Twilight cast a magic detection spell which caused everything covered in a strong magic to light up in their eyes. They walked away from the shining tree-castle and walked around the town, trying to find the mysterious pony that entered Ponyville undetected, after an hour of searching, they met up with Rarity and Fluttershy who were buying a couple of apples from Applejack.
"Hey Twi, hey Pinks what's- Whoa, up all night partying again Pinkie?" Asked Applejack
"Really Darling, you need to slow down." Said Rarity
"Or at least take a nap." Fluttershy half whispered
"For once Pinkie Wasn't partying. Somepony slipped into Ponyville under Pinkie's radar and we are trying to find the mare or stallion using magic. want to join us?"
"I can't right now, Twilight but if you're still looking come find me." Said Applejack as she placed more apples on the table
"I think we'll join you it might be fun." Said Rarity as they both grabbed their apples
"Okay, then let's go." Pinkie said, prompting Twilight to cast the spell again before they moved out searching for their target again..
Applejack and even Rainbow Dash joined them after everything was explained to them. After another hour of searching, the group found themselves in front of the new oak tree that replaced Twilight's old library.
"We've searched everywhere Pinkie. I don't know if the pony is here anymore. Whoever he is, I think it's time for us to give up.”
"No, the pony is still here. I can feel it."
"Well, unless you can point us in the right direction there is nothing more we can do." said Rarity.
As Rainbow sat down to lean against the tree she jumped back up. "What the-”
The air shifted around the ground she was sitting, on which revealed a black cat with red stripes. It also had two tails that had small flames on the ends, flames coming out of its ears, and large fiery blue eyes that glowed. It hissed before jumping on Dash's face, claws extended, and began to scratch up her face.
"AHHHHHH GET THIS CAT OFF ME!"
Twilight grabbed the cat with her magic while Fluttershy tried to calm the cat down and Rarity helped Rainbow Dash.
"It's okay, it was just an accident. She didn't mean it."
The cat growled at Fluttershy.
"There is no need for that kind of language!"
the cat stuck its tongue out at her before taking in a deep breath and shooting a fireball at Rarity. It turned and shot another one at Twilight. Both fireballs exploded, surprising both mares and covering their faces in soot. Twilight dropped the cat, who jumped to Applejack and gave her the same treatment as Rainbow Dash before jumping off her face and landing next to the tree. She started to paw at the air next to where the tree was before, only for it to start shifting.
"Oni what's wrong? You hungry? Oh hello." said another creature yawning as he was revealed.
He was covered in dark red fur and black scales were on his forearms, hands, lower legs, and feet. He had scarlet dragon eyes a dragon's tail with a sharp spade on its end. His black dragon wings were folded behind his back, sticking out of his thin purple vest. He was also wearing baggy black sweatpants that had a sword sticking through an anvil on them. His head was covered in short purple-red hair that had black curved horns sticking out of it. Everyone was speechless except for Pinkie.
"Ha, I knew he hadn't left. My name Pinkie Pie and these are my friends Rarity, Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, and one who just flew into the tree is Fluttershy. What's your name, and if I may ask what are you?"
"Oh yes, of course. My name is Dramize and I'm a Kirin. You already met Oni, my little demon." Dramize said as he picked up Oni and put her on his shoulder, which Oni curled around, his neck resting on Dramize's shoulders, before taunting the group again.
"Hey Dramize. Since you just arrived, I'm going to invite you to a party so you can meet everypony in Ponyville."
"I don't know. I still need to build my place, but if I have time I will go. See you later, Pinkie and friends." Dramize snapped his fingers and four spots around the tree shifted, revealing two small bags which he took. He hooked one to his right hip and hooked the other bag to Oni's back. The other two things were a sheathed claymore which he belted to his back, and a sheathed katana, which he belted to his left hip before he extended his wings and flew away.
"Well, he seems nice. Anyway I will see you girls later. I have a party to plan!"
"Um, girls, I think we should get ready for Pinkies party. Ummm girls?" Fluttershy said.
"Yeah, let's get ready." said Twilight, planning on writing a letter to her mentor about the new arrival as the mares separated to go to their own homes.
On Fluttershy's way home she saw Dramize at a large clearing near her house which caused her to stop flying.
"Wait, there wasn't a clearing here before. And what's Dramize doing here? Maybe I should take a look."
"Okay, Oni are all the animals gone?"
Oni nodded at Dramize.
"Okay, good. Now it's time."
Dramize raised his hands while his horn started to glow bright orange and the ground began to tremble. Then, thick walls of lava started to shoot up from the ground, all connected, and at two different heights before hardening into black walls that looked like the shell of a two story house. Then a geyser of lava burst forth, which he warped into a large funnel that became his roof.
"Okay, now to fill it." Dramize walked to a wall and drew his claymore which shrunk into a long sword.
It glowed blue before he cut a doorway. He walked inside, then turned back.
"You know, Fluttershy, this not the place for a delicate mare such as yourself. You should head home."
"But I'm on my way home now. I'm just a short walk away."
"Oni, would you please escort Fluttershy to her home. I would do it myself but I need to get us set up now, if I want to make Pinkie's party."
Oni moved to Fluttershy and sniffed her before leaping up on to her head.
"It appears Oni likes your scent. Ummm, okay Fluttershy, if you run into trouble just say Onigiri. That's her activation code."
"Activation code to for what?"
"I hope you don't need to see. Just be safe okay."
"Okay."
With that, Fluttershy walked to her cottage to enjoy the sounds of nature around her. The two walked calmly through the forest, making it to her cottage. "Thank you for the escort, Oni, you can go back to Dramize now."
Oni shook her head.
"Oh, you want to stay with me? Don't you think Dramize will get worried?"
Oni fell on the floor laughing before telling Fluttershy to get ready. A few hours later Fluttershy was wearing a soft green sweater with three pink butterflies on it and red shorts. She walked into the middle of a fight between Angel and Oni as she came back down.
"Whoa, whoa, you two break it up. Angel be nice, Oni is a guest."
Oni jumped back, then stuck her tongue out at Angel after jumping back onto Fluttershy's head, to Angel's surprise. They both left for Dramize to take them to the party, only to meet him in the air.
"Ready to go?"
"Yep, I just finished setting my anvil a few minutes ago, so I'm all set and ready to go the party. Then I realized Pinkie Pie never told me where it was going to be."
"Well, luckily we came back to check on you."
"I know right."
"Anyway you can follow me to the party if that's ok with you."
"That sounds great Fluttershy, thank you. Now, shall we go?" Dramize held out his hand.
"Let's."
Taking Dramize's hand, Fluttershy blushed a deep red as they flew to Sugarcube Corner for the welcome party.
When they got there, Dramize introduced himself and told everyone he was a blacksmith before talking the night away with Big Mac, Spike, and Soarin', while Fluttershy told her friends what she saw Dramize do.
"You're kidding me. He created a house out of lava?" asked Rainbow after doing a spit take with her punch.
"I don't even think there are even spells to do things like that." said Rarity.
"Their aren't. If there were, I would have at least read about it somewhere. But the power need to pull lava up from the earth, harden it, and seal it while keeping it in the shape of a house is even beyond me." said Twilight looking at Dramize with intrigue.
"Oh my gosh! Maybe he can destroy world with just a thought." said Pinkie jokingly.
"Pinkie never say things like that, please. I have enough things keeping me awake at night already." Fluttershy plead, shivering.
"Come on girls, it's a party. Let's put these thoughts behind us now. Let's have fun!" Pinkie said, bouncing away.
"Yeah, Pinkie's right. We can decide this another day. Let's party!"
Everyone who heard Twilight started to party the night away.
