A friendly meeting

"So what are your names mortals?" Vulgrim asked sitting back in his chair summoning a glass of blood red wine in his hoof.

"My name is Twilight Sparkle personal protegee of Princess Celestia" The purple unicorn waved "Remember me?"

"Yes I know you" War recalled thoughtfully

" Ah'm Applejack I work with my siblings at Sweet Apple Acres, we own the largest apple orchard on Equestria" the orange-stetson wearing mare said

"HIIMPINKIEPIEILIVEINSUGARCUBECORNERANDIMGONNATHROWYOUTHEMOSTAWESOMEWELCOMEPARTYEVA " the pink one screamed "Oh by the way you live right next to us stop by if you can" in a singsong voice

War was surprised she could say all that in one breath as well as the fact that Vulgrim was somehow able to process all that gibberish into proper language

"Rainbow Dash fastest flyer in Equestria" the bandaged cyan mare boasted

"I might have to think about that title" War thought

"Rarity I work at Carousel Boutique I'm Ponyville's designer it's a pleasure to meet you" the white mare announced unconvincingly

"Oh that's Fluttershy you could say that she's a bit scared of strangers but she'll warm up to you eventually" Twilight explained

"Likewise" War said

"so what brings you here? other than to give us your rather ridiculous names" Vulgrim asked, War chuckled at the demon's remark

"We're here to ask you some questions, just some friendly talk" Twilight answered "and I've never seen you around before"

"I arrived before War I am Vulgrim merchant from Hell at your service" the demon announced putting his front hooves together before giving a bow. War grunted disbelieving the demon's false respect for these creatures

"A demon? I thought your kind was just a fairy tale" the purple unicorn exclaimed

"And magical talking equines aren't fairy tales?" Vulgrim countered

"Point taken" Twilight grunted

"Wow Twi lost admitted defeat? that's a keeper" Rainbow dash snickered before getting hit upside that head by Applejack

"Lemme guess your gonna sell us stuff for souls or somethang?" Applejack questioned glaring coldly at RD as she rubbed her head grinning sheepishly.

"Souls are among my chosen forms of payment, but gold is my preferred" Vulgrim answered

War felt something strange like he was being watched, shifting around in his chair he glanced at the windows and saw nothing, unknowingly an amassment of ponies sat at every window. After a short awkward silence Vulgrim finally spoke up.

"So... enlighten me what 'friendly talk' are we talking here?" the demon asked

"Mainly speaking to your friend regarding his punishment, he will start tomorrow, his jobs will be delivered via mail" the purple unicorn answered smartly before continuing to explore the area, taking notes on the demon's abode with a quill and parchment she summoned from thin air.

"You mean that flimsy metal box?" War smirked turning to Vulgrim

"Oh that thing?" Vulgrim nodded "Looked a little boring for my taste decided to put a Serpent Tome there" glancing out the window he clapped his hooves together, a stone statue fell from a portal above the mailbox crushing it, the splinters made way for their new mailbox a large statue of a hideous serpent was mounted on a pedestal, sitting on a stand underneath the creature's gaping maw sat an innocent little tome poisonous green runes sat along the sides of the pedestal and statue illuminating the light with its toxic green glow.

"All you need to do is place the letter in the serpent's mouth and then it will transfer it into the tome for you, and I don't accept spam mail" the demon informed "anything else?" pouring himself another glass of wine

"Nope" the visitor's blurted out suddenly

"Well that's settled, I think you and your pony friends can leave, I believe our friend here has a big day tomorrow" Vulgrim chuckled earning himself a cold glare from the Rider

Shaking hooves and exchanging thanks the mane six took their leave, leaving the two otherworldly beings alone in their run-down home

"What have we gotten ourselves into?" the demon growled rubbing the bridge of his muzzle as he spoke

"For once I can agree with you demon" the Rider nodded grimly before walking upstairs the wood creaked loudly with each step he took until there was nothing left to hear.

'the voices.... always voices..... torment without end' a voice rasped ,War opened his eyes to see a tower shrouded in ice, sitting on a throne of steel its design sharp and frigid like the landscape it was built upon was an old man short and bony his face wizened by age he wore a robe of black and green a mantle of crow feathers decorated the old man, an old man War had seen before, the Crowfather.

"I helped you once Horseman. Look at me now, how I curse that day. How I curse you" the Old one accused

"Careful Crowfather. I'm not here to put you out of your misery, not yet" War turned to see his beloved brother, Death.

"How am I here" the Red rider thought

"I know why you are here. Your brother the one called War. He's been sent to Oblivion for beginning the End War before its appointed time" the old man growled "Why should I be concerned about his fate?" before turning his back on the Pale Rider

"because you know the truth, your secrets can save him" he answered

the old man cackled "The Council will condemn War, strip him of his power and let him rot in Oblivion......to hide the truth, my secrets cannot save your brother horseman"

"No... but they can help me erase the crime" Death offered but was hesitant in tone

War was shocked even in Oblivion his brother searches for him, to prove his innocence and erase the crime he never committed. For once he felt something within his heart something he never thought would exist in him, Hope.

"Bring mankind back from extinction? Madness" the crone waved off

"If it is madness, who better to show me the way?" Death joked

"should a way exist" the Crowfather continued creating purple energy it formed into an image of a place

"The Tree of Life" the Pale Rider breathed, slowly approaching the portal it was shut off before he could continue.

"Let me Pass" he growled

"Not until you fulfill your end of the bargain" the Old One

"That which you gave me..." he gestured to a glowing amulet "You will take it back"

"I... cannot" Death replied

"You slaughtered their flesh, yet you guard their souls why is that?" moving away from his chair to face Death

"Open the portal" he interjected drawing his scythes then crossing them over each other ignoring his question

Scowling at his response it only seemed to fire up the Crowfathers' rage "You will not pass whilst I live" he declared

Before War could watch his brother engage his own friend old friend, the image became blurry before fading into blackness.
