     It was a clear, starry night in Equestria 4002 years before Princess Luna and Princess Celestia came to power. 
~
A young foal was born. She was a young Pegasus with a bright pink coat, mane, and tail. The unnamed foal had sky blue eyes that sparkled in the moon light and yet, she was staring into her mother’s eyes like it was the last time she would see her mother.
The night would have been perfect for the foal’s mother, but out of nowhere, a massive shadow broke through the window.  Glass shattered and flew towards the two ponies as if the glass itself was trying to annihilate them. The glass, seemingly possessed, flew at the foal’s mother at hyper-sonic speeds slicing her in half, instantly spilling her blood and organs. The mare didn’t even get a chance to react, let alone make a sound. Then the glass turned to the new born foal ready to pierce her body without a second thought, but as it was about to end the foals life, the shards of glass fell to the ground as though they lost all form of life.
As the Shadowy figure advanced on the foal and looked down at her as it released the magic that sent the glass at the foal’s mother. Time ticked by and nothing happened. The foal was staring at the shadow, as if to say “Who are you?” and “Will you be my friend?”  The Shadow simply stood floated there. The shadow wanted to kill the foal but it drifted there staring at her. How much time passed by, seconds… minutes… hours. The shadow didn’t know but as it heard somepony rushing up the stairs, it grabbed the foal and left the house in an explosion of deep dark smoke that seemed to be made up of the pain and misery of others. As the shadow looked back, it saw the blood of the ponies. If shadows had faces, its face would have exploded with glee.
