I move through this forest as if this place were my home. Wait isn't this forest is already my home? I don't remember...I don't remember my past. Nor do I remember why am I here. I don't even know my whole purpose of even being here. I don't even know how or why I look like this.
I come to see this place as a good hunting territory. The creatures mean nothing to me. Not even the others who live out of my territory, they are pure vermin! They have no reason to even follow their Princess. More of a useless whore than a Princess if you ask me. I should be their leader! Something like me is pure royalty!
But hunting. Hunting is something that even a skilled assassin can't fully master. But I am the only thing that has fully mastered hunting.
My lust to hunt is in my blood. Hunting is what I do. I hunt to kill, to feed, to survive. Hunting is what I do every single second of my life. I hunt because of this hunger. This hunger is what forces me to kill. But I don't even care when I kill something. I have been killing for a thousand years. And not once one of my prey has fought back, or even think about fighting. Rarely I have a few fights with some prey. But I have some fights with Timber-Wolf packs. But no matter how hard they cut, shoot, throw, or whatever they use.
It always ends up with me as the victor. Not ever they would find a way to bring me to deaths grasp. But it seems that I have been cheating death for a thousand years. And the questions that I so desperately to search answers about my life has been unsuccessful. Due to my never ending hunger to feed off the fear of the people, or should I say 'ponies' who live in this world. The world that they live in they call it 'Equestria'.
I like to call Equestria my 'hunting grounds' I have also have been alone as well. A thousand years of being alone. At first I was sad being alone, then I've gotten to the stage of being use to it. I have been alone for so long that I don't even think I could be with anything else.
The good thing about being alone is that I have nothing to bother me. The only thing that I need to rely on is my hunger and who will be my next prey. And if I will give my prey a slow, painful, death.
I am now searching for any prey. Then feed on them, then back to the loneliness and the questions that I've yet to answer.
***
I search and search for anything that will be my prey. I heard some Timber-Wolves howl. They are probably hunting. I might feed on what they are hunting at. Like just a quick snack before I continue with my search.
I got the sent of one of the hunting Timber-Wolves. It was easy to find them, when ever Timber-Wolves are hunting they always seem to be very close to the area I'm in. I hide near a tree to see what they are hunting.
"AAAHHH!!!" The scream came from a little filly. The filly is running away from the Timber-Wolves. The filly has wings. Pegasi. She seems to be fast when it comes to flying. But she hasn't mastered the ability to fly. Because of me she will never will.
I headed to the Timber-Wolves. They all looked and growled at me. One of the Timber-Wolves made a loud and angry roar and charged at me. When he got close enough to strike, he immediately stopped. He just stood there. As I was feeding on him I had a thought about the filly and how vermin she is to me. But I might as well feed on him just for a quick meal then I'll kill the rest. This Timber-Wolf is so easily scared of me. The first time I saw this happen to see a Timber-Wolf get scared in a matter of seconds.
As the Timber-Wolf stud there ringing started playing with his ability to hear. And static started to toy with his ability to see. I was sucking a good amount of fear to feed and kill him.
I had my first victim for the night. I started to slash away at the other Timber-Wolves. They managed to hit me but not even a dent came on my body. The last Timber-Wolf smelled if he were the alpha male of the pack. I guess he is.
He charged at me, then the long tentacles that support my ability to walk and kill grabbed him. The tentacle rapped around him. Once I catch prey with them there is no use. My prey will be dead in a matter of minutes. Another one came out from my back and entered in it's mouth.
It went deeper until I can take out what I can make, the most brutal death that I can create. The tentacle exited him and it was holding his heart. I through it away and headed to the filly.
The attack I did to the Timber-Wolf doesn't seem brutal to me.
The filly was hiding behind a tree shivering. She saw me emerge from a long tree about ten feet away from her. As I emerged I walked two feet, then static quickly played with her vision then I was immediately in front of her.
I was excited because I haven't fed on a baby in years. But this is my only chance to feed off her fear. But if she turns out not to be scared of me. Then that will be my last chance to feed tonight. But I hope she is scared of me, because when is the next time I get to feed on a baby?
She was cyan blue and had a rainbow mane and tail, she had beautiful rose colored eyes. I don't care what she looks like or if she dies a slow, horrible, painful death. Which I always make my prey have. I only care if she dies and I feed on her.
She looked at me. I started to feel the fear quickly go away. That's not a good sign. She isn't scared of me. She started to smile. She lifted her hooves as if I was going to pick her up. I thought about leaving then I shuck it of then I said. No. I have already came too far without feeding on anyone almost all of today and tonight. I must feed on her. My tentacles grabbed her. She was upside down, she started to giggle and laugh as I continued to hold her in that angle. I made a loud roar trying to get her to fear me.
I felt some fear come back into her. Then another pack of Timber-Wolves came out of the trees and bushes. Maybe some other packs were hunting her as well. A Timber-Wolf knocked the filly off of my grip on her. The Timber-Wolf came on her then the filly started to cry. I can't lose her to some mindless Timber-Wolves. She is my feast and nothing else will have her for their feast.
I grab the Timber-Wolves head and start pushing it into it's body. As the Timber-Wolf died I quickly grabbed another one in the pack and started to tear it apart. The alpha male Timber-Wolf charged at me. He scratched me but surprisingly not even a mark could be made.
My head turned a 180 degree angle. His hearing was consumed by ringing. He was blinded by static.
Dead.
The remaining Timber-Wolves made a scared noise as if how a dog would do if it is scared. They all escaped into the far parts of the Ever-Free forest.
I walked to the filly who was on the ground crying. I picked her up and she stopped crying. She looked at me, then teared up and hugged me and continued to cry. I took her off of me then I did another loud roar again hopping that she'll fear me. She started to giggle again then laughed.
There seems to be noway to get her to fear me. In defeat I settled her down and headed back into the forest. She turned around and looked at me. She holed out her hooves as if she were trying to make me come back. I knew that she was doing that but I didn't care. She started to tear up and cry again. I looked back at her, she stopped and looked at me. I turned around and continued to walk in the forest and away from her.
I looked again. She was following me. I started to walk faster, she did the same thing. I looked again at her. She ran up to me, she managed to get in front of me. Her eyes were still wet from tears. I looked away from her and headed to a different direction hopping that I'll lose her. But she still managed to block my path. I tried to go to a different direction but again she still managed to block my path. I was getting annoyed and angry with her. I grabbed her with a tentacle and got her close to my face. She was getting scared of me. I finally get to feed on her. Static entered her vision, then ringing played with her hearing. Before I can completely feed on her, she hugged me again.
She closed her eyes as she griped on my chest. Tears rolled down her eyes as she did so. I was about to take her off of me and then smash her head. Then she said something that I never heard from a filly ever say to me.
"Daddy!" I froze in place of what she just said. Did she just call me daddy? I looked down at her. She looked at me her eyes still wet with tears. I started to fell something.
It wasn't loneliness or anger. I felt for the first time in my life I feel happy.
In the first time in my life I don't have the enjoyment of ending someones life.
I picked her up with my arms carrying her as well. She looked at me still unsure of what I am doing. I move my left arm to her. She cringes thinking that I'll end her. She felt something stroke her mane. She saw me petting her on the head, she looked confused as what I am doing. Then she started to smile and wipe a tear off her eye.
Don't worry...I'm not going to hurt you. You will be ok. I said while stroking her mane. I think you need a name... How about Rainbow Dash? I asked to the filly. She smiled and nodded her head.
Let's find you a nice warm bed to sleep in. How do you feel about that? She nodded again and she closed her eyes and let the world of dreams take her.
Sweet dreams Rainbow Dash.
I may have that never ending hunger but I don't feel alone anymore.
I think I would never be alone anymore. I may have a new life with Rainbow Dash. I'll raise her as if she were my daughter.
Later that night I found a small cabin near a lake. I wasn't is the Ever-Free forest anymore but I am now in a quite smaller and safer forest. Rainbow Dash wouldn't last a day in the Ever-Free forest. As I get closer to the cabin it looked abandoned. I looked at the sleeping Rainbow Dash and whispered. Looks like its our lucky day eh Rainbow? I asked but I know I wont get an answer from a sleeping filly. I opened the entrance to the cabin and entered. I looked at my surroundings. The place was mostly empty but there is some furniture left around. I carefully settled the sleeping Rainbow Dash on a couch in the living room. There was a small blanket on the couch. I tucked her in and I continued to look around the place.
There seems to be some furniture and windows. There is a bathtub and shower. I don't need to shower or bath I don't really have any sent of smell so I don't need to bother with hygiene. There is a kitchen and everything here. But the place has cobwebs, dusty places, and stuff that's just plane disgusting. This place only needs corpses hanging on the walls, some of their organs placed on furniture-What am I thinking!?
I have a sleeping baby with me! She is way too young to see the look of mutilation! But I've seen mutilation in the most gruesome fashion. But I didn't even care about that. I just thought it was funny how my victims were brutally murdered, and they had a slow painful death.
I only do that when I hunt prey. I don't think that I will have much time to hunt with Rainbow Dash. Maybe I'll take her to a school where Pegasi go to. 'Flight school' Yeah I think that's what they call it. But for now I will spend the night with my daughter.
***
Six years later
My daughter has been most changing experience in my life. She has showed me of being on a path of being a cruel monster who doesn't care for anything or anyone is a bad path. But she doesn't know that.
I still hunt at night. I know it's not right but when I hunt. It's the only thing I care about. It's the only thing I think about. But when I think about Rainbow Dash...
I just stop and walk away...
If I didn't had that hunger it would be a successful task...
That hunger is what I need to stay alive. Without feeding I would die. But I have been cheating death for so long that death is something that doesn't need to be a thing to be feared.
If my daughter ever found out that I have a never ending lust to kill...
I don't know what she would do...I know that in my dark heart that it will never happen. But in my corrupt mind it will happen.
But I'm not sure when...
She said she hates monsters. She doesn't like how their evil, mean, blood firsty killers. I am all of that. I didn't care at first...Until that beautiful moment that changed my life of damnation. I try to forget the past things that I've done I try to forget my hunger. But if the hunger calls for me I usually try to think about pleasant things, except murder and death. I just think about that stuff and keep it berried. But sometimes I can't control it. Sometimes it takes control of my free will and forces me to hunt. But sometimes I can control it sometimes it goes away for about months.
Then sometimes it comes back a bit stronger. But I figure ways to weaken it and continue to move on raising Rainbow Dash. Sometimes my hunger tries to make me feed on my daughter. But I'll never let that happen. My hunger used to be something I actually relied on. I used to think that because of it I am unable to be greeted with the grim reaper. That was the ONLY thing that cared about. Now my hunger is an enemy to me. It struggles to make me that monster on a never ending hunt to feed off the fear of everything in Equestria.
But I have something that I truly care for. Something that tamed the demon deep inside of me. Because of her I can take control of my life. And give her a life to complete.
But I fear that my hunger will one day come back. But stronger than before that it will take permanent control of me and hunt anything in my way.
And kill my daughter. But I wont let that happen, I will make sure that will never happen.
"DADDY! DADDY! DADDY!" My daughter said while bursting through the door. Rainbow Dash slow down! Now what is that you want to tell me? "I got to see the WonderBolts!" Was it good? "Good? You mean down right awesome!!" Good. I'm glad that you had a good time. "Good time? I had the time of my life! One day I'll join the WonderBolts and be as awesome as them!" Ok then...If you want to be like them you have to finish flight school and- "And get an education blah! blah! blah! That kind of boring stuff..." I'm surprised that she already knows that in such a young age. "And uh dad?" What is it sweet heart? "I really want to know why you are really tall. And you have...No face..." Well that's uh- "And that strange cutie mark-" She paused and stared at my cutie mark. What is it Dash whats wrong? "Oh wait I don't...H-Have o-one..." Dash whats wrong? Please tell me. "I'm a good for nothing blank! The kids at flight school all have their cutie marks! Why don't I have one!?" She started to cry. She easily gets upset when something reminds her that she is a blank. Don't say that! "Then why I keep telling you that I get laughed at every time at school!?" Because they are just jerks! Don't let them bother you about something that isn't important! "It is important! Cutie Marks is suppose to be something that tells you that you are special at something! How can you say that!?" But Rainbow- "Thanks dad for ruining the rest of the best day of my life! Oh wait, I NEVER REALLY HAD THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE AT ALL!! I HATE YOU!!" She started to sob and ran to her room.
Me and my none existent mouth. Why does she even worry about cutie marks they are just some useless mark that appears on your flank that tells you that your special. Wait...
They are the utmost important thing in Equestria... In Equestria many of the impossible can be done. Why should I even say that? If I were to say that thing about cutie marks to my daughter she would never love me again. Why am I so fed up about cutie marks anyways? Oh yeah my cutie mark. I don't remember getting it but I always knew about cutie marks. My cutie mark wasn't special at all. It only has my marker I leave in my old home the Ever-Free forest. That's why I'm like this to cutie marks.
Sometimes her attitude can go a little bit too far. Sometimes when a conflict is happening she sometimes gets straight into being sad or angry. That's a problem with her attitude. I had been seeing her give me notes from teachers from her flight school complaning about her attitude. And questions of why I don't come to their school for parent meetings and ect. And I don't want to get into fights with Rainbow Dash. I make sure that I rarely have fights with her. Sometimes a fight for me can come into yelling then later one of us will have their organs all over the place. That's why I don't want to have fights with her. If I have a fight with her I'll make sure that it ends before shit happens.
I walk my way upstairs to my daughters bedroom in the cabin. She hears me come upstairs. "D-Don't come in!" She said through half a sob Instead of opening the door I make my way with something that I use to use when I stalk my victims. I am already in her room.
"Get out! I want you to go away you freak!" I just stud there even though she called me what I am... A freak. I just stud there silent. Just starring at her as she looks at me with rage and hate. I can even smell her new rage and hatred for me. "Please get out freak! You ruined my life!" Again I just stud there as silence filled the room. I finally spoke. But Rainbow- "TODAY WAS SUPPOSE TO BE THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE WITH THE WONDERBOLTS!!! AND YOU RUINED IT!!" RAINBOW DASH PLEASE!! I yelled at my daughter in anger. I felt fear come into her. As the fear came static came into her vision ringing played with her hearing. As I felt that happening I realized what I was doing to her.
In panic I was able to stop my awful hunger. As it used half of my frustration on her to feed on my own daughter. I looked at her. She was terrified of me. I nearly murdered my own daughter! That is the most worst thing imaginable! R-Rainbow? I said in worry She just froze there on her bed horrified by me. What have I done? I-I am s- "AAAHHH!!!" She screamed at me if she were being attacked by a monster. A monster is what I am because it is my fault that this is happening to me. She has a good reason to fear me now. Rainbow I'm- "AAAHH!!! GET AWAY FROM ME!!!" She crawled further away from me on her bed. Rainbow Dash please just calm d- "AAAHHH! IT'S TRYING TO KILL ME!!!" No, No it's ok I'm sorry! "AAAHHH!!! THERE'S A MONSTER TRYING TO KILL ME!!" PLEASE RAINBOW I DIDN'T MEAN TO!! "PLEASE DON'T KILL ME!!! I WANT TO LIVE!!!" I DON'T WANT TO KILL Y- "AAAHHH!!! I AM GOING TO DIE!!!" NO PLEASE STOP TALKING LIKE THAT JUST CALM DOWN!! "NO! NO! NO! I AM GOING TO DIE! I AM GOING TO DIE!" YOUR NOT GOING TO DIE!! JUST LISTEN!! "I'M GOING TO DIE! I'M GO-" My tentacles came from my back and grabbed her. She screamed her loudest as they picked her up and moved her closer to me. "AAAHHH!!!" Please just calm down so I can talk please! She screamed again and she closed her eyes and cringed for her final breath. She breathed heavily for a minute then felt something as if it were hugging her. I was doing that to her. Even though I can never show expressions on my featureless face, I still sounded as if I were crying. She opened her eyes and looked up at me. Rainbow Dash I am sorry for what I did to scare you! I promised myself that I will never do that to you! I will never kill you! Not ever would I even lay a hoof on you. So Celestia help me that I never will! I'll never say those things about cutie marks! I know how important they are to you. What you said about me being a freak and a monster I am both of them! I know that you hate monsters but I am a monster! I am one of those blood first killers that you call a monster! I'm sorry Rainbow Dash! I love you! And I will always will! No matter what happens I'll always be your father who loves and cares for you!
She blinked some tears from her eyes as she looked at my featureless face. She couldn't tell if I were crying. Even back when we met when I first brought her into this cabin I wanted to smile but I couldn't, no matter how hard I tried I couldn't. I even wanted to smile at her when I first saw her flying like a pro. I was the happiest father that I can ever be.
Silence filled the room. "D-Dad?" She said sobbingly She joined the hug that I was giving her. "I'm so sorry for saying all that stuff to you! I didn't know what I was thinking I-" I put my hoof on her mouth to interrupt her before she can continue. It's ok. I know how you dislike it when I say that stuff about cutie marks. And what I did to you earlier is a thing that I hoped that I will never use again. But I guess I was wrong. I am also sorry if I had really did ruin you day. "No... You didn't...I was just angry that you said that...But still why do you look like that?" I first looked at a bedroom window near her bed. Then looked back to her.
The sun is setting.
It's getting late...Maybe tomorrow I'll tell you of what I know about what I am. Ok? "Ok..." She said while closing her eyes. I picked her up and tucked her into her bed.
Goodnight Rainbow... I'll see you in the morning. I petted her on the head and turned of the bedroom light. I looked again at Rainbow Dash.
Fast asleep. I opened the door and gently closed it.
I told her what I know about myself one year ago. She listened, she interrupted me a few times but she listened. But my past is still unknown to me and I still wounder about my past. But I don't care about that, I have a new life to deal with. And to raise a filly so she can have a life to complete.
I didn't tell her of...That hunting problem...I told her that it was just a thing that happens when I am depressed or angry at something.
She said it was ok and that she understands that I have a problem. But the problem is something even worse than ever...And I hope that I never get to hear or see from it again.
That was the most selfish thing I ever did! But she is still young to know about that...Thing... But when she is in the right age and mature enough I'll tell her the truth.
***
I heard rumbling coming out side. I went to check it out by looking out the window next to me.
BOOM!
I saw waves of rainbow in the sky. It was the most beautiful sight that I ever saw. And the one who is making it was my daughter. If I had a mouth I would be smiling. I wish I did. But now I want to enjoy the beauty from my daughter.
I looked at the rainbow waves as the slowly died away I couldn't even tell how happy I am to watch my own little filly do something so amazing and breath taking, it can even give somepony who has never had happiness in their life give what they desire.
As the rainbow waves ended I couldn't wait to see what my daughter had to offer.
***
"DAD! DAD! DAD! DAD!" Rainbow Dash said in such excitement.
"Dad did you see what I just did!? I call it the 'sonic rainboom'!"
Yes I did sweet heart. You were amazing! You did an amazing sonic rainboom!
"WOW THANKS DAD! But I wish that you can smile..."
I know. I'm sorry that I can't express anything. But that isn't important, the only thing that is important is that you blew the minds of millions to show what special's you have deep down inside of you...
"Thanks dad!"
Your welcome. And do you have anything else to share what happened?
"Oh yeah! How can I forget?!"
Go on! I want to hear every word that you can make.
"Ok! The MOST best thing in Equestria happened!"
Yes.
"I got my cutie mark!" My daughter said in such a happy and excited voice.
She turned around so I can see her flank. My mind was completely blown beyond believeth. My heart was filled with so much happiness. To see my little girl finally get her cutie mark made me want to shed tears.
But I can't...
I hugged her to show her how proud I am. Rainbow Dash. You just made me the happiest father in all of Equestria! "Thanks dad..." Your welcome...
Later that night
I sit on the roof top on the cabin that me and my daughter live in as I look at Celestia's moon up in the night time sky as I hear the calming sounds of the lake close to the cabin.
I wonder. My hunger hasn't come and force me to hunt nearly almost all of today and tonight. So today must be special. I didn't need to resist my damned hunger so today must be the most perfect day ever. My daughter did something amazing today. And with that she got a special gift. A cutie mark. To me how I think of how she got it.
Maybe because her amazing gift that happened up where the clouds are was amazing enough that Princess Celestia had to give her a special talent.
Thank you Celestia for sharing your kindness. I used to think that you were a useless whore.
I am sorry for thinking that. Hell I used to think that I should be their leader!
But back then I was in a path of lurking in the shadows, while on a never ending hunt. A hunt to feed of the fear of every soul one by one.
But that was in the past. This is now... I've changed and nothing else will change me back.
Not even my hunger.
I start to feel tired. Even I rarely sleep, I feel like sleep is needed...
So I let sleep take me that I haven't been with in centuries...
I wake up and found myself on the ground close to the lake. I slowly got up and looked around to check my surroundings.
Fog was blinding half of my vision. It was strange because we weren't suppose to have any rain or fog for about three weeks.
Could it be something wrong with Cloudsdale Weather Corp's weather?
It might be malfunctioning...
No that can't be right... If that were happening in Cloudsdale Weather Corp, we would be notified if that were happening. And why would their weather malfunction this late at night?
And how did I get all the way here?
Those questions swarmed through my mind like a swarm of angry bees. I tried to use my powers to get back to the cabin. But it feels like something is preventing me to use them...
If that were able to happen to me something must be wrong. I started to walk in search to find the cabin and make sure Rainbow Dash is ok.
I walked for about a minute and I was greeted with the cabin slowly entering my line of sights. I headed to the front door and was about to open it.
Then a black gate came out of the ground that was in front of the door then chains and a lock rapped around it. Then I heard something quietly laugh from the corner of my ear.
I immediately jumped back from the door as soon as the gate came out from the ground. Something must be wrong. This shit isn't something that you see in your everyday life.
I started to be overcome by panic and worry that my daughter might be in trouble.
Ooohhhh! What to do, what do to?! Ok think, Ok now... How the buck do I get in!?
I got the idea of breaking the gate and chains. My tentacles came out from my back and the top of them turned into spears and started hitting the gate.
***
It seemed like hours of constantly hitting the gate. I rammed one of my tentacles on the gate.
Still not even a scratch appeared... My tentacles quickly entered my back, I was enraged and I got a hoof out and screamed as I started to punch the gate.
CRACK!
OW! I said after I laded the first punch. For a second my vision was parsley blinded by static once my hoof made contact with the gate. I holed my hoof and looked at it, some of it was bright red covering some white parts on my hoof.
My hoof felt nearly numb of how hard I've hit it.
GAH! How hard did I hit that thing!? I said while rubbing my sore hoof. I must have been really hard because I heard a cracking sound if something cracked a bone.
I put my sore hoof down, but once it made contact with the ground I felt serious pain coming from it. I immediately took it off the ground once it touched it.
I figured that I can't use that hoof because of it's condition. A small tentacle came out from my back and went to the ground. I was using that so it can be like a replacement until my hoof feels better and I can use it again. I started to walk around the cabin in hope any entrance can be found.
Sadly all of the doors and windows are just like what happened to the front door. I sighed in defeat, I continued walking then I fell over something, I fell if I fell down a big hole in the ground. Unfortunately I did.
I tried to get up without using my sore hoof. I looked around the hole I fell through.
It was deep but there is nothing for my tentacles to grab on and carry me out of there. They can grow really long but something is even making them unable to grow long enough to get me out of the hole.
I turned around and found a door about ten feet away from me.
I headed to the door and opened it. Once I entered I was some how in the front of when I enter from the front door outside. I turned around to look at the door I came through, but another gate and chains came and blocked me from using it again.
I was more worried than confused of what is going on. I am worried because my daughter might be in trouble.
RAINBOW DASH?! I yelled hopping to get an answer. Where are you?! I yelled for a second time but once again no answer.
And my surroundings was horrifying.
Mutilated corpses were on the walls and the ground. Some of their skin is missing what is left of their missing skin is just mussel and bone.
Markings painted in blood of my cutie mark were on the walls.
I tried to ignore the horrific sight and went up stairs to Rainbow Dash's bedroom in hope she is there.
And if I find whoever is messing with us they'll regret that they were born.
***
I made it up stairs and my sore hoof is feeling better. I set it down and thankfully no pain was felt.
I saw something at the door of Rainbow Dash's bedroom, it was hitting the door of the bedroom. My tentacles came out from my back and turned into spears ready to strike.
I was getting closer to the creature then it quickly got up and spoke.
HIYA!!! GAH! AH! We both screamed once it got up and spoke.
WHY ARE WE SCREAMING?! I DON'T KNOW! YOU WERE SCREAMING SO I SCREAMED TO!
One my tentacles rapped around it's neck and I went closer to it and spoke. WHO ARE YOU AND WHY SHOULDN'T I KILL YOU!?
It spoke while chocking on my grip. IT'S GAH! IT'S ME REMEMBER!?
I dropped him then he started holding his neck and making long and loud gasps. I grabbed him again and I got a good look of him.
If I had a face I would look if I have seen a ghost.
He looked just like me. But some parts didn't look the same
His suit and tie were all scratched and dirty and stained with blood. He had my cutie mark to.
But he has something that I don't have.
A face...
But it is no ordinary face.
His iris was red and the white part that is suppose to be with the eye is black. His mouth looked like stitches but when he moved them they moved like a mouth moves when something speaks.
I'm you remember!?
Y-You can't be me! Y-You have a face!
HA! Has it been this long already!? He teased
What do you mean?
Wow, it has been long...You have been with...Her for too long... He shuttered at the word 'her'.
What are you talking about!?
Well guess... I've been with you for Celestia knows how long! You for some reason dislike me...And do you remember that little thing with you and Rainbow Dash?
What-Oh my sweet Celestia!
That's the sprite!
S-So you are...M-My hunger?
You are look'n at it...
But-How? Why? What? You?
Well it's a long story... Hey do you want to see whats behind this door!?
You better damn well not have laded a single hoof on my daughter!
Well...I wanted to... But where is the fun in that when you're not here!?
Why I odda!
My...hunger quickly opened the door and slammed it. I opened the door, thankfully he didn't lock it.
The whole place was covered with markings of my cutie mark. And right in front of me was my hunger holding my daughter with his tentacles.
She looked terrified but his tentacles were covering her mouth.
My tentacles came out from my back and I went into an attack position, and my tentacles turned into spears.
PUT HER DOWN NOW!!! I screamed in anger.
UGH! Come on! Can't we just go back to the way it used to be!? When you and I were feeding of the fear of every living soul!? Can we just go back to good days until now!?
IN! YOUR! GODDAMN! DREAMS! I yelled at him with even more rage than before.
His face turned into a bored look and spoke once again.
Then I have no need for you anymore...
One of his tentacles turned into a spear and stabbed Rainbow Dash. Then he dropped her lifeless corpse...
NO!!! I screamed as I charged at him with renewed anger and rage. My tentacles turned into spears as well and I attacked him with them...
But I couldn't even make a single mark on him...
He grabbed me and yet another time spoke.
First you can't hurt me. And second I can hurt you...*sigh* Oh such a waste... Oh well...
His tentacles again turned into spears and stabbed me all around my body.
Then the final blow had put an end to me...
My vision was slowly consumed by darkness...
And he smiled and started wave goodbye with his hoof...
My vision of static faded slowly and my body felt heavy.
I managed to pick myself up due to my other limbs that came out of my back.
As the static faded and I took my time to look.
I jolted up and looked around with my extra limbs coming out of my back in a paniced position.
It was night time.
I spone around and teleporting in different directions hoping to find my home and Rainbow Dash.
After a few paniced gasped I saw the cabin with the lights still out.
I teleported to the front door and hurried myself to Dash's bedroom.
I teleported in and Dash jolted as she saw me appear out of no where.
"DAD!" she screamed. She jumped out of her bed and ran to me in a hug. Whats wrong sweatheart? I asked. Rainbow Dash looked at me with tears in her eyes, I didn't have time to question my reality but take whatever my daughter has to say.
"M-Monster!" she said sobbingly. What? I asked the sobbing filly again. "I-I was sleeping, th-there was a m-monster wh-who looked like you, and it-" She duge her face into my suit and continued to sob. The feeling of relief took me and I stroked her mane.
It was a just bad dream Dash... I added to ease her sadness. "I-It was?" The filly asked.
Yes Dashie, you're safe with me, the sun is neary up and- "But what if I get the bad dream again!?" She said nearly about to be taken back to her sadness.
I didn't want her to cry and I decided to show her something that helps me when I have ever felt like she is now Dashie let me show you something, I held my hoof out telling her to follow me and she did so.
I took her outside of the cabin and I pointed up to the stars.
Look how they shine for you... I said. Dash started to smile as she took her gaze at the shining stars.
We looked at the stars shining brightly just for us...
