Nyx and Teotle looked at the wolf with confusion. Who was she? Was she Teotle's sister? How did she find him, and what did she mean by calling him "Hellhound"?
"Who are you?" Teotle asked nervously.
The wolf raised an eyebrow before replying, "Do you even have to ask? My name is Scarlet Rose. I'm the one you've been searching for. The one you set out to kill."
Teotle's eyes widened with concern and confusion. "I don't want to kill you." He corrected.
"Oh really." The Scarlet asked. "Then why did you kill my mother and father?"
"He didn't." Said Nyx, trying to keep calm and not snap outright for Scarlet's accusations. "It was Shadowflame who killed your father, and Smoke who killed your mother."
Scarlet let out a light chuckle and said, "Don't you know anything, little filly? That thing standing next to you, is a part of Shadowflame himself. Anyone in his blood line is a part is his soul. That's the curse he put upon his wives and children. They are all responsible."
"THAT'S NOT FAIR!" Nyx shouted with anger. "Teotle is the only one out of all his siblings who didn't want Shadowflame to come back."
Scarlet snarled and said, "You named it? What a waste of time."
"She didn't." Teotle remarked. "It was our mother, Frost, who gave me that name."
"Ridiculous." Said Scarlet. "Mother was forced to give you life. Why would she give such a name, if any, to a child she didn't want?"
Teotle's blood began to boil from Scarlet's words. "She gave that name to me out of love and hope." He said. "She believed that I could have a different destiny, unlike the one my father chose for me. That's why she sent me to equestria."
"Is that what she told you?" Asked Scarlet. "Did she really intend that for you, or did she simply want to forestall the ritual?"
"What does that mean?" Nyx asked. "Of course she did."
"No." Answered Scarlet. She meant for Teotle to die out here. She thought that if you went out into the world on your own, that you would be killed. Weather it be by the fangs and claws of a beast, or the sword and spear of these ponies you love so much."
Nyx and Teotle said nothing, but Scarlet could see on their faces that what they claim to know was wavering in their minds.
"Now do you understand?" Asked Scarlet. "My mother never loved you. The only reason she showed any kindness to you was to make it easier to kill you."
With those final words, Teotle yelled as loud as he could, "SHUT UP!" Ignoring Nyx's desperately calling out to calm down Teotle, his rage had drowned out her voice. The ground began to shake beneath his feat, the wind began to pick up speed, and dark clouds of shadow began to swirl in the sky.
With all this happening, however, Scarlet Rose didn't flinch. She just stared into Teotle's eyes as they began to turn blood red. After a good long while, she finally asked, "Do you want to kill me now?"
Teotle didn't reply. He pulled out his sword and pointed it his sister. It was the same red curved sword he forged with the help of his friend, Ironeye.
In response to this, Scarlet pulled a bow and arrow off from her back. She prepared an arrow and aimed it at Teotle, and with a wisp of wind, she made her shot. The arrow moved at unbelievable speed as it got closer and closer to Teotl's head.
However, Teotle made a quick and simple move with his arm to have his sword slice the arrow in half, from the head all the way down to the feathers. The two halves passed the sides of Teotle's face and hit the ground behind him.
"Not bad." commented scarlet, aiming another arrow at Nyx. "Lets see you try and block this."
She let the arrow fly, but before it could strike Nyx, a string magic began to radiate off the blue pearl on Teotle's sword. The magic moved in front of Nyx and stopped the arrow dead in its path and it fell to the ground.
None of them knew what just happened, but Scarlet didn't care. She tried to fire at them again, but her bow somehow fell limp like a piece rummer. "What the...?" She asked, before letting her bow fall to the ground.
Twilight and her friends appeared behind Nyx and Teotle to help them. Twilight called out to Teotle to try and calm him. It took a few good shouts, but her voice had finally reached his ears. His eyes changed back from red to blue and the air and ground began to calm down. Teotle put away his sword and looked back at Nyx, who was staring down at the arrow that was fired at her.
What was that magic that stopped the arrow? Where did it come from? Why was it in Teotle's sword? Nyx just wasn't sure. taking her attention off that, she looked at Teotle, who was back to normal, and gave him a relieved embrace.
Twilight looked at Scarlet Rose and asked, "Are you Teotle's sister?"
"Technically, we were born from the same mother. "Scarelet answered. "He, however, is not my brother."
"Why are you doing this?" Fluttershy asked.
"Shadowflame took everything from me and my people. I intend to get justice."
"Against someone who your mother died for?" Asked Applejack.
Scarlet said nothing. She through down a pellet on the ground that blew up into a smoke screen, alowing her to make a quick escape.
"Why that little..." Said Rainbowdash. She tried to go after Scarlet, but Teotle stopped her. "What are you doing?" She asked.
Teolte was silent until he was sure his sister was gone. He then said, "We'll see her again."
