//------------------------------// // Chapter 7 // Story: A Cursed Soul // by pvzMLP //------------------------------// Puppet P.O.V As I slowly gained consciousness I was terrified at what I did to the ponies, since they were my new friends and accepted me for who I am. But surprisingly enough they were all alive, but looking at me wearily while Rainbow and Applejack were glaring at me. I then sighed. "I've got some explaining to do don't I?" At the sound of my question Rainbow flew right up to my mask and glared hostility into my white eyes. "You're bucking right you have some explaining to do! Why did you try to kill the princess?!?" She yelled at me hatred showing in those magneta eyes. Every other pony in the room nodded in agreement. I sighed before a question came to mind. "How did you know a music box stopped me?" At the question I just asked them they thought about it themselves before turning to look at Pinkie. "How did you know to use a music box Pinkie?" Twilight asked the hyper pink pony confusion in her eyes at how she knew to stop the Puppet. "Whenever the twins got mad and pouring flower on me didn't calm them down I use a music box soooooo I thought' hey maybe he's just cranky and needs to calm down' so I ran to Spikes room where I remembered he had a music box when he was greedy and rampaged the town so I grabbed the music box ran back wound it back up and ta-da!! He's sleeping like a baby." She finished her explanation while her friends could only gawk at how at how if she didn't get to that box in time they would all be dead. Then Celestia broke the silence. "Now that that's out of the way we'd like some answers." She said turning to me with a glare in her eyes. "Starting with how did you get strong enough to break my levitation spell?" She asked me confusion in her gaze. "That is simply part of my curse." I told them bluntly in which everyone looked at me in confusion at whta I just told. I simply sighed." You'll probably like to know what I'm talking about don't you? It's...not a happy story and it'll take a long time to explain so..." I then held open my hand where a golden wisp floated to the ground then taking the shape of a mirror." I'll show you." ***************************************************************** Far up north a being of dark magic was awakening feeling a creature as strong as him had just suddenly appeared and its presence made him feel stronger and more powerful. He was also getting glimpses of horrifying creatures that would give anybody no sleep at all, but he wasn't just anybody he was King Sombra and be was about to make everyponies life a living NIGHTMARE.
