The Day Pred Judu Des Retired

The Day Pred Judu Des Retired is the 40th Episode of the 3rd Season of the SpongeBob and Friends Adventures Chronicles series. Almost as quickly as the Starfem issue was resolved as it was, Pred has made a public announcement that he has retired from being a slayer of Mythic Beings and Creatures, whether good or bad, and with the Sisters offitcally reanouncing their continuation of it, as the 4, with Toadstool in tow, have started to reside in the reforming monistairy to find a new porpose for their abilities. This came as a shocking surprise to even Celestia and Luna! Espeically to the Unicorn Council, who in due to the defeluptment, have began to lose their own nerve against Mythical beings, surprisingly even Shineflare after she vented from a nasty temper-tandrum. While this came to become pleasent celebration worthy news for all Mythic Beings in Equestia and beyond, even a holiday dedicated to this change of heart, and with plans of a new Unity on the way as soon as the Unicorn Council is completely healed of their own issues and moral conflicts on the matter. Even the Lougers have been caught in a mix of confusion, specticisum, and curiosity. With Mara confirming that it is for real and it's being done in light of Fluttershy's crying over his attempt to kill Fem, it was more then proof enough that Pred has indeed ceased to be an issue. And luckly, they don't have to worry about the likes of Zred Judu Des due to her deannouncing to being a beast slayer long ago cause of a healing power dragon saving her life from a Timber Wolf mauling. However, his retirement brings a new concern. Baku, Malcontent Spark, and Violent Fem Fatale. Baku managed to regain the trust of the still cursed Malcontent and the still violetile Violent with news of Pred retiring, as Baku ultamately convinced them to use it as the perfect oppertunity to end Pred and the Sister's life, reguardless whether or not the Mythic Beings and creatures will appresiate them for it. Luckly for Pred and the Sisters, the Lougers and the Main 7 figured such an issue would happen and readied themselves to do what Pred no longer has the will to do: To bring bad mythic creatures like Baku and the stagnatingly surviving Flame clan to justice. And with Help from Taiku, Haku, and the MU University Gang, it won't be just the dark legacy of Pred Judu Des that'll be soon place into retirement.

Chapter 1: Pred Judu Des No More
A Few Minutes after the defeat of Starfem. This happens as mythic beings began to come out of random and humorious hiding places and began to sing and dance to the surprise and confusion of the ponyvillains.
 * As the Louger Van was seen leaving, The Ponies of Ponyville were seen gathered around.
 * Mayor Mare: "I know this will be groan-worthy, but.... Pred Judu Des has an offictal announcement to make."
 * Ponies groan.
 * Pred approuched the stand with a seemingly legit regretful look on his face.
 * Pred: "...... Ponies of Equestia...... As of this moment on...... I, Pred Judu Des...... Am retiring as a Mythic Beast Slayer."
 * Ponies, after 2 seconds, started to drop jaws!
 * Pred: "I, felt as if I'm even more washed up as a slayer then previously thought, no more advertised by recent events. And that's not all. My daughters, Shade included, have denounced in continuing this. And I bet you spectics wonder why? Well..... Let's just say that seeing Fluttershy cry over what I tried to do to Fem over the start of that Starfem mess has.... Finally broken my iron clad nerves. And with that and with Mara back to me, well..... Even an old codger like me can realise when his talents are deemed useless. It's time to do what I wanted back to what I was younger before the mess with Champion.... To have nothing to do with a legiacy I thought I understood perfectly, but now.... I just don't know who's more wrong or right anymore. Beleive in what you want, I don't aim to get believers out of this... I just want to make something clear. And I am doing this cause of Fluttershy.... I am tired, of breaking her heart and testing her trust. There was a time where she was gonna hate me over that Tirek Conspiracty crap that happened some time ago, and.... I don't want to risk that with another whatever future shenanigan should happen next after Starfem. To further prove this, I, my daughters and my sheep toadstool are gonna leave and retire comfertably in the reforming Monistairy.... Your not gonna have me to kick around anymore.... Good day for the last time, Ponyville."
 * Pred, the Sisters and a baaing Toadstool turned around and leave.
 * Mayor Mare was equilly shocked.
 * Mayor Mare: "..... Di...... Did...... Did I, heard that correctly?"
 * A Goblin came from nowhere from a trashcan!
 * Goblin: "PRED JUDU DES IS RETIRING?! HEY!? HEY GUYS?! IT ACTSELLY HAPPENED!? THE MURDERIOUS PRED HAS FINALLY LOST HIS BLOODLUST?!"
 * A Dragon popped from the ground!
 * Dragon: "I DON'T BELIEVE THIS?! WE'RE FINALLY SAFE!?

Later... Later again...
 * Spike still had his jaw dropped.
 * Spike: "(Picking up his jaw).... Oh Twilight is never gonna believe this when she gets back."
 * Twilight: I DON'T BELIEVE THIS!!
 * Spike: I KNOW, RIGHT?!? Dragons and non-ponies everywhere don't have to worry about getting slaughtered!
 * Fluttershy:...I...he did all that...for me?
 * Rainbow Dash: Well, I say good riddance! All the crimes he has committed are finally ending.
 * Applejack: But...do you girls realize what this might mean to Equestria? I mean, sure dragons and non-ponies will be free to enter pony territory without having to be afraid of his sword, but...what if that might also mean that their bad apples are free to do whatever they want to us ponies?
 * Twilight:...I'd better contact the Lodgers.
 * Rainbow Dash: But they just left.
 * Twilight: Well, we don't have a choice. They need to know. (Sighs) They'll never believe this.
 * Lord Shen: I DON'T BELIEVE THIS!!
 * Sparx: So the bastard finally did it! He's finally putting away the sword.
 * Fluttershy:...What concerns me about this is...well...not only will the Unicorn Council be awestruck, but he's done this for so long, he has nothing else to do with his life. What could he hope to gain out of his time in the Monastery?
 * Twilight: I don't know, but his cutie mark seems to be limiting his choice of what to do with his life. We established back in Season 1 that ponies can't do anything beyond their cutie marks. So...what else can he do with his life?
 * Tigress: As much as it pains me to say this, I'd rather not have him live as a jobless hobo for the rest of his life.
 * Icky: "Yeah, but the psyco can't exactly find a new job either. Guy's tecnecally a felon. They don't tend to be treated well in the hunt for a new career."
 * Lord Shen: "..... Not just that, but, we need to make sure what he's saying is true and not some attempt to secretly seek out Starfem without problem."
 * Twilight: "Pred's normally not that complex."
 * Lord Shen: "But he could be taking advice from someone who is. We must turn back admitingly and further investigate this."
 * Po: "And on the likely chance he's legit on doing what he is doing, then what?"
 * Lord Shen: "..... It'll depend on what we discover."
 * The Van makes a quick u-turn.

Chapter 2: New Arrivals for the Monastery/Secret Origin of the Judu Des Clan
The Monistairy. Flashback. Reality. Zuthron's room. Magic Training hall. Outside. Inside. Flashback Present Outside again. Pred's room. Unicorn Councilroom Hall Present Great Dragon Peak, Dragon Lands A healer's room. Flashback Present
 * Grimoors was seen sleeping lazily on the couch as Nile came in, jump-fliped onto Grimoors and began licking his face!
 * Grimoors snorted awake and screamed at this!
 * Grimoors: "Good Grief, Nile, why do you wake me up like that other then being half-dog?"
 * Nile: "Cause I like to. Come on, Uncy Grimoors, you said you'll take me to see the new Kung Fu Panda movie!"
 * Grimoors: ".... (Chuckles).... Alchourse, I forgot that, did I? Old Noggan ain't what it used to be. All ight, fair enough. I gots nothing betters to do anyways."
 * Nile squeed as her tail wagged!
 * Grimoors then picked up Nile and placed her on his shoulders.
 * Grimoors: "Come on, let's go find your sisters and tell them where your gonna go.... So they won't end up plauging me with those nasty beetles.... Again..... Like last week."
 * Grimoors was seen running away from flesh-eating scarabs!?
 * Nile: "But sisters, Grimmy didn't kidnap me, he took me to have some Equestian Outback!"
 * Cleo and Patra: "...... Oops."
 * Grimoors: "..... Don't tell your sisters I said this, but they can be bitchy sometimes. Espeically Cleo."
 * Nile: "Ohhh. (Quietly) Your secret's safe with me."
 * Zuthron and Patra are seen meditating.
 * Zuthron: "You know, Patra. A wise being once said meditating is one of the finest ways for one to relief themselves of stress."
 * Patra: ".... And I had seen the effectiveness of it. Father sometimes enter these himself to further understand his powers. He began doing these much more often ever since he came here."
 * Zuthron: "I trust it was because of fully understanding the truth behind the Derserta Crusades?"
 * Patra: "..... (Sighs).... Yes..... And he may not fully confess, but he's still hurting about Scor-Pan's fate. He still cares for him like a brother."
 * Zuthron: ".... I see. Perhaps one day he will be welcomed here, but.... Scor-Pan's crimes and almost causing a new situation that may not be easily reverseable is still a great controversy, even if it has since been passed and done. He still has a great dept to pay. Your father understands this well."
 * Patra: ".... He does. But it pains me to see father like this... And it does effect my siblings. Cleo almost never wants to talk about it in an attempt to sheild her feelings about everything that's happened to us, and Nile was lucky Grimoors of all people was kind enough to become an unoffital uncle and acted as a surrigent since Father.... Is currently trapped in his sulking."
 * Zuthron: ".... Am I correct to assume that your father really wanted to believe that Scor-Pan wanted to be a real brother to him again?"
 * Patra: Yes. And he's been like that since Scor-Pan's defeat. But I'm sure that someday, father will come to terms with it like we all have.
 * A Zap was heard!
 * Patra: ".... Sounds like Cleo and Karl are rough-housing again.
 * Karl was seen firing vast amounts of fire-balls as Cleo was back-flipping away from each attack and gymnasticly lands back into combat position!
 * Cleo: "Let's see you dodge this, wizard?!"
 * Cleo fired another light-ray as Karl teleported away!
 * Karl appeared on another part of the arena.
 * Karl: "I may not be actrobatic, but who needs to when you can teleport?"
 * Cleo scoffs in annoyence at Karl's cockiness and leaped up, made her arm larger during 18 fast flips and was about to punch him down!
 * Karl teleported again before Cleo can hit him, smashing the floor instead!
 * Karl reappeared.
 * Karl: "(Playfully) Come on, your majusty, I'll hold still this time."
 * Cleo: "Ugh, your suppose to help me ease out my frustrations with a mock magical battle, not make me angier?"
 * Karl: "Oh what's a little tease between friends?"
 * Cleo: "Oh please, I see you more as just another inhapident of this monistairy then an actual friend."
 * Karl sighed romanticly.
 * Karl: "(Quietly) But I see you more then even just a princess."
 * Cleo stared at Karl with annoyence.....
 * Cleo: "..... You know I have super-strong hearing right?"
 * Karl: "Duh, I mean, in a totally plantonic way!"
 * Cleo: "Just resume the duel, wizard! And rid yourself of these petty interests to me! I, am the daughter of royalty and a great ex-preist! YOU, were once an amatur magic user AND your not of loyal blood! ON top of it, you are a byproduct of a race of world destroyers! Your unworthy for even the marrage of a mere peasent, let alone of a princess!"
 * Karl: "Ah, see, you gotten into the spirit of rough-talking! Still, owch though."
 * Cleo: "Are you gonna attack or what, Wizard?"
 * Karl: Oh, right! (Before he can do so, a still-pregnant Cadance appeared)...Oh, Princess Cadance. Nice to see you again.
 * Cadance: Yes, I just wanted to ask, did you see the news recently about a new arrival?
 * Cleo: Oh, yeah, that was a total shock. I never thought a cute pony's crying could cause him to renounce what he does best.
 * Karl: Who wouldn't feel shattered after seeing Fluttershy like that? She's like the most lovable pony in the show. Hell, I start crying whenever she cries.
 * Cleo: (Sighs) I swear, I'll never understand what cuteness and love is these days considering I'm young by immortality standards.
 * Cadance: Give it time. Anyway, when Pred arrives, I want you to be on your best behavior with him. He needs a nice welcome to this place. I also wanna make sure he moves onto a much better life than before. His cutie mark seems to make him limited to slaying non-ponies. Don't quite see what else he can do with his life.
 * Karl: How about herowork, as in killing the non-ponies that actually ARE evil?
 * Cadance: Murder is still not a good thing to be through, and a hero doesn't kill unless there is no choice. While I can see where you're going, it's still going to take time for him to do something with his life. Especially since he recently told me that he's quitting not just for Fluttershy's sake, but also because... Let's just say... He's getting a little weak for his age.
 * Cleo: Oh, so NOW he's only starting to show signs of old age? It took him this long to throw his back out?
 * Cadance: Cleo, I know you had limited interaction with the public, but you need to show common courtesy for the elderly. It's not very nice to insult old people.
 * Cleo: I was just stating an obvious question. It was never meant to be an insult.
 * Cadance:... (On note) "Note to self: Teach Cleo about common courtesy."
 * Karl: I can understand why she made such an insult, quite frankly. She's not just been having limited interaction with mortals, but also that the only company she's ever had was immortals. Which is pretty much her own family. But I'm sure with a little... Push... She can see some good in that. Isn't that right?
 * Cleo: By Anubis, I am never falling for you! Also, your tecnecally not a mortal anymore as a Heartless hybreed.
 * Karl: "Details, details. Point is, I was borned a mortal, so it counts."
 * Cadance: (Sighs) Just get ready. And Cleo, try teaching yourself common courtesy until then. Also, Karl..... Go easy on your wooing. (Leaves)
 * Nile was still on Grimoors.
 * Grimoors: "Are we HONESTLY welcoming that nasty little horse here? Are we even sure he's not just saying that to get an oppertunity to snag that Starfem chick?"
 * Zuhron: "Grimoors, it would not do well for us to be paraniod and distrustful."
 * Grimoors: "Oh trust me. I seen a guy like Pred before. Someone like him doesn't just stop killing dragons over upsetting a girl, let alone anything else. Heck, I still haven't let go of my own hatred of dragons. I mean, even if it wasn't Hiccup's dragon, it was still a dragon that originally killed my parents."
 * Patra: "They're back and well, are they not?"
 * Grimoors: "(Quietly) Yeah but as freaks."
 * Zuthron: "Oh trust me, those looks are a compliment compaired on how I used to be a darkspawn."
 * Grimoors: "Ah how bad could you of possability had looked?"
 * Zuthron held a picture of him as a Darkspawn at Grimoors face as Grimoors yelped!
 * Grimoors: "Why do you keep an artists redition of yourself as a demon?"
 * Zuthron: "To remind myself to never be like that again."
 * Cleo stood annoyed as Karl hovered over her, staring love-strucked.
 * Grimoors: "..... What's with the little wizard guy?"
 * Zuthron: "It's another case of Karl sharing a, romantic interest in Cleo.... Reguardless of issues like bloodlines, royalty.... And appearences."
 * Grimoors: "Oh, you mean like how you two always seem to stare at each-other like Nadders during mating season?"
 * Zuthron and Patra blushed at that!
 * Zuthron: "D-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-don't start jesting, Grimoors. We are merely being friends."
 * Nile and Grimoors: "SUUUUUUUURE you are."
 * Zuthron: "I'm, I'm serious!"
 * Grimoors: "Then keep a straight face while I'll discribe what she would look like if she wore, like say.... A two piece bikini. (Zuthron starting sweating)..... A tiny..... Bikini. (Zuthron sweated to the point of being a mini water fall.).... An almost reveiling, tiny, Bikini. (Zuthron is suddenly like a broken fire hydrent of sweat)."
 * Patra blush was seen covering her entire cheeks.
 * Omega was trying to get away from the sea of sweat!
 * Rarxter: "How can a human produce this much sweat?"
 * Stomper: "Good grief, you can sail a great ship on this water."
 * Kevin: "Aw gees, Grim, why did ya had to do that?"
 * Grimoors: "What? I'm just proving a point."
 * Cleo: I can already tell by now that you have a crush on my sister.
 * Zuhron: OH, OKAY, YOU GOT ME!! I do! I've been keeping this a secret for as hard as I could.
 * Grimoors: My good man, crushes are nothing to be ashamed of.
 * Zuhron: Yeah, but it's like trying to keep a secret of porn from even your family. It's just not possible to get over so easy. I mean, come on, have any of YOU ever tried that before?
 * Karl: I know I did.
 * Dr. Wazabi: (Sighs) Is a crush REALLY such a hard thing to admit?
 * Zuhron: It's not like YOU'D understand, it's not like YOU'VE been in love before. Hell, I bet you've never even got laid in high school.
 * Dr. Wazabi: I've NEVER been in love. Girls seemed really bland to me. When I was young, I was in my cootie stage, then when I got older, I found them a little boring. Not to mention I was too focused on my research with Digimon and how they functioned. Though I cannot understand love, though probably not yet, I can understand admitting secrets is hard. In high school, some people saw Digimon as a kind of artificial pet software for children. And those only came from people who DIDN'T have them as children or have tragically grown out of it. I would've felt embarrassed to let people know of my research in the science of Digimon.
 * Omega: Did they ever find out?
 * Dr. Wazabi: Yep. I had far too many Digimon in my labs to not be noticed. I've spent over 25 years in Digimon research, and it's what made me the villain I was before. Such an unknown subject seems to trigger the natural curiosity of those not of the digital world. As for me, it corrupted me. But the point is that secrets are something that need to be admitted at some point. They can't stay a secret forever... Most of the time.
 * Rarxter: "Wait, but, Orra's your son. If you never had a relationship, then, where did he came from?"
 * Grimoors: "Yeah, your both Storks are ya?"
 * Dr. Wazabi: Let's just say that HIS birth was an accident. A guy at the sperm bank got the wrong sperm and Orra was born to some random stork lady. I never got to see her, but I took Orra off her hands.
 * Omega:...Orra was born...because of a mistake?
 * Dr. Wazabi: Sadly, yes. I've been raising him ever since. And again, I never met his mother. Even he had no idea who her mother was when he was growing up. So I raised him as a single father.
 * Zuhron:...That's...a little tragic.
 * Dr. Wazabi: "Why did you think he was so easily willing to help me in my... Troubled, endeviors? He did it out of being troubled himself."
 * Rarxter: "Forgive me for butting into your parenting skills but... Would it not make you a slightly better parent if you had been a better enfluence on him?"
 * Dr. Wazabi: When you have to raise a child when you're not exactly ready for it...it adds onto what made me a villain in the first place. Both the curiosity on Digimon and being a single father, is basically a bad combination that can make you a villain.
 * Rarxter:...Wow, your life really sucked back then.
 * Dr. Wazabi: Tell me about it. I still wish I knew what happened to the poor kid's mother. I would've gotten some better advice on being a father from her. Having a child seemed to affect my personal goals. Then my growing aggravation made me realize I would want an heir to continue my work. So Orra was a good choice, and I might've gotten carried away for a bit.
 * Zuhron:...Well, no wonder you became a villain. You couldn't balance out parenthood and research properly and it made you aggravated to the point of insanity?
 * Dr. Wazabi: Well, insane is a bit of a strong word, I would prefer it as confused and blind about what to do.
 * Ryan: I'd still call it insane.
 * Cadance: (They see the carriage) Here they come.
 * Hypnorattle: Alright, everyone, let's remember to make a good first impression, okay? Especially you, Cleo.
 * Cleo: Yeah, I know. I'll try not to comment on his age.
 * Fang: "But shouldn't we make this place more presentable and not a mini ocean of human sweat? It's disgusting!?" (Cadance magically removed the sweat all over the ground, and cast it to the ocean. Then Pred and his daughters came out of the carriage)
 * Ryan: Well, hello, Mr. Pred.
 * Pred: Greetings.
 * Cadance: You sure took your time to get here, Pred. I'd be more than happy to give you the tour.
 * Chain: Oh, that's be appreciated. (Woody laughs)
 * Axe-Rella: Chain, let's not make this a scene. We're about to enter a new leaf, and we'd prefer that you NOT ruin the moment.
 * Chain: What? What'd I say?
 * Pred: Girls, just be quiet. I'd like to get this whole thing over with. We have a LOT to leave behind.
 * Sharp-Pay: But...what exactly do we do once we're ready, father?
 * Pred: I don't know yet. But one thing's for sure, I'm tired of breaking a friend's heart with my methods. If this is what Equestria wants, then I'm through with this job.
 * Hidden Shadow: You sure we can find a suitable job to fit us?
 * Pred: Maybe, maybe not. I just don't want to prolong the inevitable any longer.
 * Cadance: Good words. Now come with me, and I'll show you around. (They entered the Monastery)
 * Hidden Shadow: "..... Luxorious place for a reabilitation center for those that attempted to cause serious trouble."
 * Chain: "Yeah. It must've been super X-Bens-Viv to make."
 * Axe-Rella: "She means "Expensive"."
 * Cadance: Oh, it was. The budget was 560,000 bits. But it was all worth it. I wanted to make a Monastery which everyone could feel home in. The fountain outside, the painted ceiling, everything that could be perfect.
 * Sharp-Pay: Good for you.
 * Cadance: Well, let's continue. (They moved on to see everything including the cafeteria, Dr. Wazabi's lab, and finally their rooms) Here's where you'll be staying. The room is fit enough for you to be accommodated. Make yourselves at home, and try not to do something stupid. Especially you, Chain.
 * Chain: You have my word. (Woody-laughs)
 * Pred: Thank you for this, Princess Cadance. We really need this.
 * Cadance: My pleasure. I'll be back in a while to check up on you. (She left)
 * Chain:...Was she a little...plump to you?
 * Axe-Rella: (Sighs) She's pregnant, remember?
 * Chain:...I thought they said they didn't want kids.
 * Pred: Yeah, well, continuity in the canon show had to say otherwise. Now, let's get our belongings straight. (Takes out the container for his sword, and sighs)...I'm not sure if I can let go of this.
 * Sharp-Pay: You did it for a good cause, father. I'm sure Fluttershy is proud of you.
 * Pred: But what about the consequences this retirement can lead to? What if there's other evil dragons and non-ponies out there that want to cause trouble?
 * Hidden Shadow: Father, I'm not happy about this retirement either. But I'm sure we can figure something out. I don't like to see your friend broken-hearted as much as the next pony, but it's a sacrifice we all have to make. You've been looking out for her since the day she was born.
 * Pred: (Sighs) Indeed. Grudgesly was happy to be a grandfather. I can never forget that time when I first saw her.
 * Pred: (He was younger as he was with Grudgesly in a ground house as baby Fluttershy was seen)...
 * Grudgesly:...I never thought my family could go this far, Pred.
 * Pred: Me neither. And she's just so adorable.
 * Grudgesly: I'm hoping to sign her up for Flight School. She seems to be pretty shy for her age. Not exactly taking well to any strangers that want to interact with her. Hopefully, she'll learn something in Flight School.
 * Pred: I hope so. I'd like her to carry on your legacy unlike your child.
 * Grudgesly:...(Looks at baby Fluttershy, and she sees Pred and coo-shivers)...She doesn't seem to be quite the type for this career, Pred. I don't think she'd ever harm a dragonling once she gets older.
 * Pred: Well, I don't care how she turns out. If you should ever be gone, I'll be sure to protect her for as long as I can. You're a friend with a family worth fighting for.
 * Grudgesly:...Thanks, Pred. You'd do your family proud. (The two hugged as baby Fluttershy cooed)
 * Pred:...(Sighs)...But it seems my protection hasn't helped as much.
 * Hidden Shadow: Probably because of how you did it, father. You were trying to hunt down her roommates.
 * Pred: I know. And that's why I don't want to see her shed a tear because of what I did. It just haunts me with the knowledge that Grudgesly is probably ashamed of me. Well, that's about to change starting now. (Puts away his sword case) I hope for sure that this retirement counts.
 * The Louger Van arrives.
 * Fang: ".... Oh, it's my brother and his friends again."
 * Othello: "Is it safe to assume it's over the the latest debacle with Pred?"
 * Fang: "We're talking about the same basturd that has been among the most biggest problems to them and your asking that? Alchourse they're here cause of that old fart!"
 * Othello: "I know your known to be nippy, my leige, but, do ease up on insulting him sir."
 * The Lougers come out.
 * Sir Hiss: "Hello Fang. Have you by chance seen Pred?"
 * Fang: "The Alicorn has already taken the lot into their rooms."
 * Sir Hiss: "Thank you. We're here to investigate this further to make sure it's not a conspiracty to go after Starfem."
 * Othello: "Oh, you mean over that fiasco with the butt-tattoo sucking storm? Honestly, I don't understand these equines' fasination with those pictures on their rumps. Aren't they asentally child friendly versons of a horse with a brand mark on it's side?"
 * Icky: Don't know, don't care. Let's just talk to the guy.
 * Lord Shen: Of course, those ponies realize that we have to let the 99% situation in Duckberg get worse. That situation has been up for weeks, and we need to fix it as soon as we can. I swear, cheapskates these days are sickening.
 * Mr. Krabs: HEY!
 * Lord Shen: Besides you, crustacean. At least YOU'VE been improving with your cheapness, but I swear someday that cheapness is gonna affect us in some way.
 * Squidward: I had the exact same thought. This is the guy who fired his best fry cook for a f****** nickel, AND repeated his false claims that he is a great fry cook afterward.
 * Mr. Krabs: Oh, come on, Mr. Squidward, give me some credit. At least I ain't Ebenezer Scrooge levels of cheap.
 * Lord Shen: We are getting off topic...again. Let's remember what we're here for.
 * Pred sighed as he looked at his sword hanging from the wall.
 * Chain was watching the window.
 * Chain: "Daddy, the lougers are here."
 * Pred: "Oh seriously? I can't even retire without them causing a fuss over what I'm doing?"
 * Hidden Shadow: They're probably just here to ask some questions. They might think we're doing this because we're trying to sneak our way to Starfem.
 * Sharp-Pay:...Well, that kinda makes sense. If we HADN'T retired, we would surely do that.
 * Pred: But I'm NOT the one for ridiculously-complicated plans such as sneaking my way into a Monastery just to kill one person. I'll just tell them that if I were to have done something like that, then I would truly lose Fluttershy's trust. I made it clear that her heart and trust is more important than anything else, including my job. I told her grandfather that I would protect her for as long as I could.
 * Axe-Rella: I think I hear them coming.
 * Pred: Alright. Here it goes. (The Lodgers arrived with Cadance)
 * Cadance: Hello, Pred. The Lodgers would like to have a talk with you concerning your decision.
 * Hidden Shadow: Guys, if you really think this is all because we want to kill Starfem, then you've wasted your time.
 * Icky:...Are we really so predictable?
 * Hidden Shadow: For a pony who acts as a spy for so many years like me, yes.
 * Pred: I can assure you all that I am putting away the sword for good. This is all for Fluttershy.
 * Iago: While I can understand it, and we're at least happy that you're FINALLY going to cut the act of xenophobic murder, at least we can acknowledge that you were a hero of your own right, even when you've been WAY past your warranty, both chronologically and physically.
 * Crane: To be honest, he's not wrong. You could've done something better with your job, like improving upon your methods like, I don't know, only going after non-ponies that actually ARE a threat.
 * Boss Wolf: But let's be honest, you'd just kill first and ask questions later, anyway. You were just upset that you're a hero way past your prime.
 * Pred: Yes, it was about time I had to do this. If I had to see another tear coming out of Fluttershy's eye, then I'd regret it for the rest of my life. I had this coming from the beginning.
 * Sparx: Sure as hell did. You weren't exactly making it safe for non-ponies to be in pony territory.
 * Spyro: Sparx, don't make it hard for them.
 * Pred: No, the dragonfly's right. I have to be honest to myself, even I knew I couldn't do this forever. I'm starting to wear off for my age. I've been doing this for most of my life, and I'm sure the Unicorn Council will cope with it.
 * Chain:...Speaking of which, how did THEY take the news?
 * Cadance: Well, as you'd kind of expect, they didn't take it well. I took a visit there hours ago and...well...
 * (Something like this was heard in the room)
 * Cosmoto: (He is thrown through a wall screaming as he hit the camera lens sliding down with his lips on the lens as Shineflare continued screaming angrily)
 * Cadance: What in the wide world of Equestria is going on?
 * Cosmoto: Headmistress Shineflare has gone cuckoo crazy...give or take Violet. She, is, NOT, taking the retirement of Pred very well.
 * Cadance: (Sighs) I was afraid of this. I'll go calm her down before she ends up hurting somepony.
 * Cosmoto: "I'm not sure if all 5 doctors would recimend going near an angry unicorn while pregnant."
 * Cadance: It's worth the risk. Besides, I am perfectly capable of defending myself from her. (She puts a magic shield around her as she enters and a chair is thrown at her as it shatters)
 * Shineflare: (Yells random gibberish until she realizes what she threw that chair at)...Oh...Princess Cadance....I am so sorry! Is the baby okay?
 * Cadance: Thanks to my quick-thinking. Now pull yourself together! Pred had a reason to retire!
 * Shineflare: "LIKE I'M NOT AWARE OF IT!? He lost his iron clad nerve to Fluttershy crying OVER FEM FATALA!? MY ALICORN GODS, THIS WAS NEVER AN ISSUE BEFORE IN THE PREVIOUS TIMES FLUTTERSHY HAD A COMPLAINT, WHY IS THIS AN ISSUE NOW!?"
 * Cadance: Sorry, but wouldn't YOU feel bad if you saw a best friend cry over something you did?
 * Shineflare: BUT THIS NEVER CAME UP BEFORE!! HE'S SEEN PLENTY OF TEARS COMING OUT OF HER EYES, AND HE STILL STOOD STRONG!!! WHY IS HE WUSSING OUT AFTER SEEING ONLY ONE OF THEM?!? I thought he was ABOVE such bulls***!
 * Cadance: Look, one time I saw him, I sensed all the bad thoughts he had with every single moment he broke Fluttershy's heart. Ever since that Easter incident, he's been having some alone times where even he starts to feel bad. He's seen Fluttershy be disappointed in him far too many times. If he were to continue another time, it would all but DESTROY him! How would you feel if you were a heartless murderer who did some nasty killings, AND it lead to you hurting your friends' feelings? Would you be so heartless as to NOT see the problem with that?
 * Shineflare: Well, I've never had that many friends in my fillyhood considering I WAS A SLAVE FOR MOST OF IT!!! And it was also an insult to my clan as well, considering they were of the Golden Sword clan who fought along side Dred himself! The only friends I ever had was those in this Council! Pred was the one thing that helped me in my campaign against corrupt dragons and non-ponies out there who have done far worse than what they did to me. Now that he's gone...who am I?
 * Cadance: You know very well that your method didn't make you any better than the griffins that abused you in fillyhood. You were using Pred to do it, KNOWING he had something limiting it. Quite frankly, you should've seen this coming.
 * Cometelius:...She makes a fair point, Headmaster. You knew he was a friend of Fluttershy. Surely you saw this coming.
 * Shineflare: To be honest...I truly didn't! I thought that was going to be your way of limiting his intentions.
 * Cadance: Then clearly you underestimated what she could do. She was the one who reformed a chaotic villain through her friendly heart. With an accomplishment like that, I assumed you would've known this would happen.
 * Shineflare: "..... In my defence, Pred didn't caved in to this extent before. You can't blame me being surprised this happened NOW! Pred is normally more reselient then that! But my outrage wasn't just because of this! I have NO ONE else to defend Equestia from the dangers of the Mythic Beast Community!? Not just that, but aren't you afraid some of Pred's most powerful NOT-DEAD enemies would seek out this oppertunity to rampage into your little reforming clubhouse and endanger your little alien friends?!"
 * Candence: "I don't really have to worry much cause one, it's protected by strong security, and the presence of a ex-Presitlord. I think we're safe from unexpected surprises."
 * Shineflare: "Do NOT, underestimate the likes of some of Pred's enemies, ESPEICALLY NOT, the surviving Flame Clan and that Baku abomination!?"
 * Candence: "I am not underesitimating them. I am just saying they're not a true threat."
 * Shineflare: "You'll see soon enough?! They won't care if the monistairy has done nothing to them at all! They will undiscriminately DESTROY your little place just for the sake of getting to the only pony who can be a threat to them!? Once so, not even the elements of harmony will be a true threat to those monsterious dragons?! Pred's death will attract  all the dragons and non-ponies to join them and-"
 * Candence: "You mean the ones that AREN'T morally decent and sane? Trust me. The Monistairy survived an attack from a Death God! I think it can handle some of Pred's personal critics."
 * Shineflare: "I am WARNING you, Princess Candence! For the sake of that baby, you MUST understand the sevairity of the situation!? Pred's retirement would mean the death of Equestia and the start of a terrorable uprising!"
 * Candence: "Your warnings are acknowledge. But they are met with promises that this "terrorable uprising" will be stopped. Not even Violent Fem Fatale would be able to harm the Monistairy, or Pred. Both they and Equestia and are in safe hooves."
 * Candence leaves.
 * Shineflare: "........ (Quietly)..... Overcompident foal. Those dragons are sure to strike even as we speak!"
 * Cadance:...So, yeah, she didn't take it very well.
 * Icky: SHE THREW A CHAIR AT YOU?!?
 * Sparx: THAT SLUT!!! SHE TRIED TO ASSAULT A PREGNANT PRINCESS!!
 * Candence: "I gave myself a sheild."
 * Pred: Reguardless.... What if she was right? What if Baku and the Flame Clan could be free to do whatever they want?
 * Bubbha: "Uh, pardon me for being like Pervis, but for those that don't know, who or what is a Baku and the Flame Clan?"
 * Tulio: We dealt with Baku one time, and he's an unlucky relative of our friend Taiku, and the Flame Clan is what's left of the family of vengeful dragons that are out for Pred's blood since he killed their first family member back when he was young and in school. With Pred retired, that's going to give them a GRAND opportunity to strike back and finally get their revenge.
 * Miguel: And you're SURE you want to retire and let this become a risk? While you are one of our enemies, at least it helped keep the rogue dragons out of Equestria.
 * Pred: My mind is made up. I don't want Fluttershy depending on somepony she can't trust.
 * Icky: Dude, I get this is because of Fluttershy, but haven't you tried killing the dragons that DO end up being threats?
 * Brandy: HOW IS THAT GOING TO HELP?!? KILLING IS STILL MURDER!!!
 * Icky: There's other ways to use a sword!!!
 * Pred: GUYS, I AM DONE WITH THIS JOB, AND THAT'S FINAL!! You save Equestria more than I do. So I am leaving stopping Baku and the Flame Clan in your hands.... Or whatever limbs you have.
 * Lord Shen: "Thing is, we barely even interacted with Baku that much since the last time, and we hardly even know what the remaining Flame Clan are like."
 * Pred: "Then get someone who knows them better! Now are you lot gonna leave me be or what?"
 * Mara came in and saw the Lougers.
 * Mara: "Ohh, sorry. Did I came in at a bad time?"
 * Icky: No, you're just in time. We could've really used you right now.
 * Mara:...So...Pred...I heard you retired.
 * Pred: Yes, honey. I'm done with this career. What's the point of keeping it if it only leaves a good family member of a best friend disappointed in me?
 * Mara: But...you do realize that there are non-ponies out there that will be thrilled to know that there's nothing that can stop them from-
 * Pred: (Sighs) I already told the Lodgers to handle whatever comes up next. Whatever dragon and non-ponies threaten Equestria, it's no longer my problem.
 * Icky: Yeah, it'll BE your problem if they attack Fluttershy. (Gilda slaps him again) OW!! WHY DO I BACK-TALK?!?
 * Gilda: WE can protect her, you idiot! Geez, has his retirement made you so surprised, you became stupid?
 * Mara: Guys, he's right, you can protect her enough. Besides, it'll give us an opportunity to spend more time together.
 * Chain/Axe-Rella/Sharp-Pay: EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEWWWWW!! (Chain Woody-laughs)
 * Sparx: Well, goody for you. I hope you lovebirds aren't worried that those dragons are going to make this opportunity count. And I'm sure they won't think twice about attacking this place no matter how secure it is.
 * Cynder: "That had better not have jinxed us, Sparx."
 * Sparx: What, I was just pointing out a fact. Was that REALLY karma-triggering words?
 * Everyone: YES!!
 * Sparx: Well, I don't care, we can still handle it. I mean it's not like-
 * Skipper: (Covers Sparx' mouth) NO! That is enough lip out of you, little guy! That's all we can stand from karma! Now then, we need to make sure these threats are not a problem. The first step is to double the security in this place. Those d***-holes are surely not gonna go down without a fight. It's best we split up. Some of us stay guard at the Monastery while we scout the place by first talking to King Drakesis. So, who's gonna stay?
 * Tigress: "Your gonna need a strong defence, so the five are needed here."
 * Skipper: We'll stay, too. Kowalski, know any others this place needs?
 * Kowalski: I'd recommend Merlin, Thundera, the Digidestined, Lord Shen, Trixie, Peng, Lian, the Dactyls and Raptors stay here. That should leave a lot of us to scout around for clues as to prepare for the attack.
 * Private: And what if we don't make it to you in time? Won't you have to use your sword in self-defense?
 * Pred: Depends if I have a choice. But again, I will never use it for vigilantism again. For now, it just reminds me of every one of Fluttershy's tears.
 * Icky:...Wow, that sounds sad when you say it out loud.
 * Pred: It is. Now go. (Some of the Lodgers left while the rest of them stayed behind)
 * Lavulite came into Drakesis's throwneroom.
 * Lavulite: "King Drakesis, you would not believe what has just happened!?"
 * King Drakesis: "Miss Lav, you look excitable today."
 * Lavulite: "Something unbelieveably miraculous happened! Pred Judu Des retired!?"
 * Drakesis: "..... (Laughs out loud!) Lavulite, I never known you for a sense of humor. Like Pred Judu Des has ever considered-"
 * Lavulite: No, I mean it. He's finally doing it. For good. He's doing it for Fluttershy.
 * Drakesis:... I still don't believe it.
 * ???: You'd better believe it, scaly! (Some of the Lodgers appeared)
 * Icky:...Because this was a twist to us as well! Plus, Shineflare is mad as balls, and thinks that this will lead to some rogue dragons coming to lay siege.
 * Sam: Especially the Flame Clan and Baku, which we're intending to hold off. You happen to know where they might be hiding?
 * King Drakesis: You're asking ME where those fiends are? Believe me, if I had known where they were, I would've already arrested them. Those insults to the dragon name have been committing heinous acts against the ponies for decades, and yet they avoid capture from even Alicorn gods. They are able to elude even me. And I'm not the King for nothing.
 * Brandy: Well, crap! Who would've known the king wouldn't know where thos three is? OH, YEAH, I TOLD YOU ALL ON THE WAY HERE HE WOULDN'T KNOW!!!
 * Savio: Believe me, there are much harder things to swallow than your constant bragging and mean nature.
 * King Drakesis: But if Pred is indeed retiring, then that would certainly give Baku and the Flame Clan a chance to crush Equestria.
 * Iago: Relax, big guy, it's nothing we Lodgers can't handle.
 * King Drakesis: Oh, trust me, the last of Malevolent's family is tough enough to survive even blows from you Lodgers. They are too determined to burn anything that stands in their way.
 * Icky: ".... And yet they couldn't stop other mythic beings from dumping them over discovering the truth about why Pred is such a s***-nugget and cursed one of them into being a skelital dragon?"
 * King Drakesis: "I said they were tough, not unimaginalely god-like perfect. Thank goodness that isn't the case. Besides. All that did was prevent them from coherseing Pred's SANE victims, ones that only hate him for being a murderor and not being because he's a bad exsample for ponies, into joining their cause. The close they'll ever get to truely loyal supporters are other mythic being criminals, but the Flame Clan thrived on the truth not being known at first because they want the sane haters of Pred to find their "noble cause" appealing... And having your members consist of nothing but fanactical and monsterious bad exsamples of our community of dragon and beyond that also did crimes to THEIR OWN PEOPLE as punishment for not being more stern about the Pred matter, doesn't sound inviting."
 * Icky: "Oh right, because Pred being a s***-hole was their fault to begin with, right? What with Champion Light being a provokeable dips*** and all that."
 * Drakesis: "Exactly. No sane mythic creature and being, even if they otherwise fear and hated Pred, wouldn't want to be assusiated with those who aren't exactly saints themselves and only serve to end up making Pred look justifived and ergo, end up starting to make Ponies support Pred as a result! The only reason they did was because everyone thought Pred does it out of pure insanity driven malice and that the murder of Champion was unprovoked."
 * Sandy: "Wait, but at the same time though.... Killing Champion Light over being cheated out of a lady friend isn't exactly any better then just doing it for lols. How, does that not benifited those basturds at all and ended up going down like it did instead?"
 * Drakesis: "Simple. Because alot of heinious villains are borned from a romantic tragity, even if it's something as petty as being dumped. We mythic beings understood that Love is a powerful force. And we also understood that if Champion Light had just stopped being a fool, those deaths would've never happened, and Pred would've made good on his promise to not continue his family legacy."
 * Icky: "Wait.... Family? OH MY GOD, WE FORGOT TO CONSIDER HIS SISTER?! WHAT IF SHE SHOWS UP AND GETS PRED OUT OF RETIREMENT AND-"
 * Drakesis laughs gently.
 * Drakesis: "It's funny you reference Zred Judu Des. Trust me when I say, she's not a problem anymore even before Pred's retirement."
 * Spongebob: "She's not?"
 * Drakesis: "Come. Let me take you to my dear cousin, A heal power dragon. You'll love to hear her tale."
 * A female dragon with white skin and healing symbols on her body was seen as she read a book.
 * An almost familier pony figure was behind her and looked as if she was gonna ambush her.....
 * The figure then pounced playfully on the Healing Power Dragoness and laughed, reveiled to be a slightly aged Zred.
 * Zred: "TAG! Your it again, Healzon!"
 * Healzon: "(Laughs gently), Now, Zred. Remember that I have impourent reshearch to do. But your free spirit is all the more appresiated reguardless."
 * Zred: "Sorry. I couldn't help it. My time with my parents never let me had a real childhood. I never been more free. I respected what my family believed in, but.... I always felt that deep down, we were continuing something that was no longer appresiated or even beloved anymore.... I..... I wished my parents got to realise that before.... They were lost to me...."
 * Healzon: Well, at least you didn't end up going down the same path as your brother. He's been a pretty big problem for Equestria and us for years. Don't exactly know if he can keep this up forever.
 * ???: Ms. Zred? (The Lodgers and Drakesis arrived)
 * Zred:... OH, GOD, NOT YOU GUYS!! I SWEAR, I'M NOT DOING ANYTHING BAD TO THIS DRAGON!!! HELL, I DON'T EVEN HAVE A GODDAMN SWORD!!! PLEEEEEEASE SPARE MY MONEY-MAKER!!!
 * Sandy: Easy there, whirlwind! Drakesis here told us a bit of what this dragon did for you.
 * Zred:... So... You're not going to-
 * Squidward: We would have if Drakesis didn't told us otherwise.
 * Icky: Speaking of which, what exactly DID she do to have you stop carrying on your family's legacy?
 * Zred:... Well... Let's just say, ever since Pred got his cutie mark years ago, I've been straight up proud of him. But as times went by, when something came up 6 years later... I started having second thoughts about what our family was doing. I was starting to open my eyes to what was wrong with it. And it started with Healzon.
 * Healzon: You see, I rescued her from danger when she was chasing a dragon thief into the Everfree Forest....
 * (Healzon): A child dragon was making off with a hundred bits, and Zred was trying to chase him down. But it was a trap. The dragon thief lured her into the Everfree Forest so she could be lost and let the forest take her life, ending one of the Des Clan's greatest fighters. (Zred smelled a familiar smell, and knew what it meant)... And she was almost doomed to be prey to Timber Wolves. (Timber Wolves appeared and chased down Zred as she used her sword to slice one of them to pieces)
 * Zred: HAH! TAKE THAT YOU DUMB WOODEN MUTT!! WHY DON'T YOU BUTT-SNIFFING BASTARDS HIT THE ROAD SO I CAN- (The sliced Timber Wolf magically reformed itself)... Aw, f***-holes! (They continued chasing her down until they ended up getting a clean hit on her) YAAAHHHH!!! (The Timber Wolves got multiple hits on her as she laid to the ground bleeding and fatally wounded as the Timber Wolves growled)...
 * (Healzon): She would've almost been lost had I not shown up. (A bright-white light appeared which blinded the Timber Wolves, and Healzon appeared and fought off the Timber Wolves, causing them to retreat)... I was able to heal her from her fatal damages. (Healzon casted a magic healing spell with repaired the wounds on Zred)
 * Zred:... What?... What the... DRAGON! (She tries to attack, but Healzon grabbed the sword, and threw it far enough from her)
 * Healzon:... Look, you would've been Timber Wolf Chow had I not shown up... Zred Judu Des.
 * Zred:... How do you know me? ARE YOU THE FILTHY DRAGON WHO SENT THAT THIEF TO ROB US PONIES?!?
 * Healzon: "I have no ties to the delinquint who brought you here. In fact, (Brings up a captured younger dragon), I captured him myself."
 * Thief: "HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO YOUR OWN KIND, HEALZON!? SHE'S A MURDEROR?!"
 * Healzon: "And you're any better for trying to use beasts to do your demented bidding for the Flame Clan?"
 * Thief: "Hey, if it helps, I bare NO LOVE for those psycos!? I only listened to them to get my own payback for what that psyco Pred Judu Des did to my family?! We had NO prior history of crime and violence and HE JUST BARGED IN AND KILLED THEM!?"
 * Zred: "What my brother did was to avenge the innosent pony blood spilled from the Fear Wars."
 * Thief: "DID YOU CRAZY RACISTS EVER THOUGHT THAT IF IT WASN'T FOR THE BOUGYMAN HIMSELF, THAT WAR WOULD'VE NEVER EXISTED AND THE JUDU DES CLAN WOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN LOVED?!"
 * Zred: "I-....... I-....... I....... I, never really thought of that.... But, but, still! Dragons and other Mythic Beings have done crimes to us ponies BEFORE the fear wars and WITHOUT him! They enslave ponies, they torture ponies, they raped ponies, they KILL ponies?! The Fear Wars was just their true nature on corruptive steriods!"
 * Thief: "Well I get your upset what our community's dips***s and assholes have been doing to you guys, BUT WHY MAKE THE GOOD ONES OF THE WORLD PAY WITH THEIR BLOOD OVER IT?! THAT'S ONLY GONNA MAKE MORE ASSHOLES OUT OF DRAGONS AND MYTHIC BEINGS?! YOUR JUST MAKING A CYCLE OF HATE AND MISTRUST WORSE?!"
 * Zred: "WELL IGNORING THEM LIKE WHAT CELESTIA IS DOING IS NOT MAKING IT BETTER?!"
 * Thief: "True, but neither is making the innosent suffer for the sins of others?! My family were proven good dragons and Pred murdered them for nothing?! WHAT THE HELL IS HIS EXCUSE FOR IT?!"
 * Zred: "If you MUST KNOW, FLAME CLAN LACKY?! IT'S BECAUSE YOUR MASTERS MADE HIM LIKE THAT!?"
 * Thief: ".... Wha..... What?"
 * Zred: "Yeah. You see, Malevolent Flames had a nephew named Champion Light who decided to trust an evil Goblin Witch to get magic to turn a girl he likes away from him, if though momentarly. He realised that Dragons and Mythic creatures are truely the scum of Equestia. A pony would NEVER be so discipable and desperate to win the affections of a girl SO not into him!? Champion paid with his life for it. In a way, the Flame Clan were the ones who killed your family..... Through having a s*** realitive desiding to provoke my family into pretty much punishing you scum for ever listening to them!?"
 * The Thief started to wimper.
 * Thief: "But, but, the Flame Clan members said it was completely unprovoked."
 * Zred: "They lied, you stupid little turd. They lied so they can recruit thoses not as extremely evil as they are so they can be relatable to the public of your abominable socities and not look like a "criminal synicate". Sadly, my silly little brother is afraid the Flame Clan, as of this time still are at full force, would still find ways to trick the less evil to help reguardless, but I know that's not true. Even the likes of them would reconsider being among the extremests when it was tecnecally their fault to begin with. But what can you do? He's also doing it to prevent Mara from being a target. If that's how he wants to live his life, that's his right. Now as soon as I am able to fine my sword, I'll finish what he foolishly neglected to do. I'll end you for trying to get me killed, AND thiefery?!"
 * The Thief cried like a pathic punk that he is?!
 * Thief: "(TOSSES OUT THE BITS) HERE'S YOUR STUPIDY HORSEY MONEY, IT'S NOT LEGAL TENDER TO WHERE I'M FROM ANYWAY?! IT'S JUST PART OF OUR DRAGON NATURE!!! WE BUILD OUR NESTS WITH THIS STUFF!!! SURELY EVEN YOU WOULD'VE KNOWN THAT!! (CRIES!?) I, I, I THOUGHT THE FLAME CLAN WERE HEROES!? BUT.... THEY LIED TO ME?! (CRIES)?! AND, AND, THAT BAKU GUY SAID HE WAS GONNA BRING BACK MY FAMILY IF I DO WHAT HE SAID!?"
 * Zred was surprised from this.
 * Zred: ".... Baku, promised to bring back your parents?"
 * Thief: "WHY ELSE WOULD I STEAL YOUR STUPID HORSE MONEY!? IT WAS JUST TO LURE YOU OUT?!"
 * Zred: "..... I, hate to break it to you, kid.... But...... Baku may be powerful, but..... He's not capable of any form of restoration spells... Let alone something as restricted and powerful as straight-out reserection. Trust me, destroying the Flame Clan would've been a nightmare otherwise if it was true. Baku is a lying snake and a con artist, tricking those into serving the Flame Clan for his own revenge needs against my brother for breaking his back AND because he's an ungrateful twat torwords Celestia saving his life from a bunch of dragon hateing aliens! On top of it, he's a fallen luck dragon! That means, he's no longer as powerful as he is still capable of! NOR is even his luck powers useful!? Even IF he does bring back your parents, it'll only be as hidious zombies or sentient skeletons?! He lied to you so you can try to kill off a member of the Judu Des clan! He just wanted to condition you to reveil your true nature.... As a monster like him."
 * The Thief cried louder as Healzon gave him a pity embracive hug.
 * Zred looked legitamently awful about this.
 * Zred: "..... I...... I don't get it.... I dealt with disgusting mythic spawns crying all the time, and they never phased me.... Why, why is it starting now?"
 * Healzon: Can't you tell, Zred? I can read your feelings. You're starting to understand something you hadn't even considered before. Do you even know the complete history of your family? Yes, years ago, they were perfect heroes who defended Equestria against non-pony threats. However, what made them great was because they had a higher sense of morality than it does today. When Celestia's Unity was founded, the Des Clan started getting disfavored since ponies were starting to see the positive side to non-pony creatures. They became less-needed as the years passed. Their legacy was starting to go into conflict. It suddenly grew into desperate measures as the Des Clan became slayers of non-pony creatures. They started killing for no reason. And you wanna know what started this decision?
 * Zred:...What?
 * Healzon: Because of another Des Clan legend named Shred Judu Des.
 * Zred:...THE Shred Judu Des? The younger brother of the War Hero Dred Judu Des who took over as family leader after Dred was taken away from us by High Council Gods?
 * Healzon: Indeed. In his time, despite being a hero, he couldn't accept that dragons and mythic beings and creatures were being more trusted as the years passed. He feared for the legacy of his clan, so he came up with a plan that was so crazy, in a way, it worked. He thought that if dragons and non-ponies were put in pain, they would start to grow an evil edge, and thus allow the Des Clan to be needed again.
 * Zred:... HE SERIOUSLY DECREED THAT?!? Father always told me that Shred was a revolutionizing member of the Des Clan, but having dragons go through fear to make them evil was his best solution?!?
 * Healzon: I've been alive when that decree was made, and I foresaw it all. Shred was known to be a schizophrenic family member who had done some nasty things before that decree. Normally, the argueably more sane and honorable Dred kept his unwell brother in line. But sadly, in thanks to Dred being declared too dangerious to be left alone cause he was the strongest and most violent critic against the unity that he had to be punished in akin to how Sombra was first defeated, it allowed the broken hearted Shred to take over, which does nto bode well for his already unfocused mind, and because the Des Clan was in such a pickle, the rest of the clan actually listened to him. And so, that's why your family is like this. It's why Pred is like this. It's why the Des Clan did more harm than good.
 * Zred:... Why didn't father ever tell me or Pred about this?
 * Healzon: Because even he didn't know the origin. It was centuries ago. The origin was hidden from even future Des Clan generations because it would run the risk of them being frowned upon. Your Clan was so determined to become needed heroes, that a mentally-disabled family member tainted them into sociopathic monsters.
 * Zred:... I... I... (Sighs, grabs her sword, and breaks it)... My Clan has been disgraced for so many years thanks to him.
 * Healzon: I'm sorry you had to hear this, Zred. But now you have a choice. You can continue favoring the plans of an insane member of your family, or you can do something better. After all, I did save your life.
 * Zred:... (Wipes away tears)... I'm never going to kill another dragon nor mythic creature ever again!
 * Healzon: Wise choice. (The two hugged)
 * Dragon Thief:... So... What am I supposed to do?
 * Healzon: You set things right on your own. You renounce your deal with Baku, and never return to the Flame Clan. And also, return the money you stole.
 * Zred:... Won't that-
 * Healzon: Don't worry. I think you can figure out how to help him on your own.
 * Zred: What do you mean? I-... Ohhhhhh... I think I get it.
 * Healzon: So she faked capturing the dragon thief, helped defend him, and do the rest from there. I was basically the only dragon who knew the truth behind the Des Clan, and Zred made the right choice now that she knows.
 * Icky:... Wow!... Epic plot twist right here!
 * Sparx: Oh, that makes perfect sense... Except for one tiny detail... WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL PRED ABOUT THIS?!?... Or did he already know?
 * Zred: I never told anypony since I found out.
 * Mr. Whiskers: Why?
 * Zred: Do you have ANY idea what he's been through since he killed Champion Light? He slaughtered a thousand dragons and non-pony creatures because he believed it was a family tradition. Not to mention that he has been letting down Fluttershy with these actions. It would shatter him if he found out! He would be convinced that he killed so many people for nothing.
 * Batty: Does he even know about the incident?
 * Zred: Yes. But I left out as much as possible, and he accepted it... Well, for the most part. Hell, do you know what would happen if the REST of Equestria knew about this? The Des Clan would be hunted down and executed! And trust me, the Unicorn Council may've relied on the Des Clan, but even THEY wouldn't look well in the origin of my family's murderous ways. Even Shineflare, a member of the Judu Des ally clan of the golden sword, would turn on Pred for this, reguardless of Pred's service to her!
 * Puss: He's not lying.
 * Donkey:... Are you sure this was a wise decision to make?
 * Zred: YES! Pred cannot know about this.
 * Drakesis: Well, Zred, if you must know, we just received reports that Pred has officially retired.
 * Zred:... He has?
 * Jumba: Yes. Apparently, he couldn't stand hurting Fluttershy's feelings with his antics anymore, and is now residing in the Reforming Monastery.
 * Zred:... I... I still don't think he should know. He would be more hurt than Fluttershy with his antics.
 * Icky: "Well that runs the risk of his enemies using that against him! They could use it to make him commit sueiside for living a lie!"
 * Zred: "Well, trust me, not even Violent Fem Fatale knows."
 * Icky: "But what about her son and that Baku jerk? They're sneaky fucktards. They might already long know through the spies they had before the truth about his own rise of murder was let out."
 * Zred: ".... DAMN?! I never considered that?! But.... Why did they never capitalised on it?"
 * Spyro: "Because they know that everyone knows that Shred did it out of avenging his brother for what the High Council did. It would be easily justifived as another High Council mistake and see the Judu Des clan as victims of being corrupted by a mentally unwell broken-hearted fool."
 * Sparx: "But one thing..... WHY WASN'T SHRED THE ONE WHO GOT THE HIGH COUNCIL AXE AND NOT DRED!? I mean, I'd imagine Dred wasn't exactly better, but, at least he was considered argueability more sane and honorable, so why-"
 * Zred: "Your High Council did wanted to do that to both of them. But it was only Dred because he sacriviced himself before the High Council and promised that Shred's unbalenced mind would kept him from being listened."
 * Sparx: "..... Ok, WHY did the High Council actselly accepted this and not realise that Shred might end up being more creditable during a time of a family legacy crisis thanks to the unity!?"
 * Cynder: "Because it wouldn't be honorable to ignor a plea to spare a life. If they ignored it even if they knew Shred would end up getting credability eventally, that would've made them no better then the Darkspawn."
 * Donkey: "That I get, but.... Why would the High Council even want to consider killing those two to begin with?"
 * Zred: "It was because his fame in the Fear Wars made him infamous. Dred was able to slay even a Titan Cyclops while badly injured, and bysected an entire hydra, with a measly dagger?! And I don't even want to talk about what Shred was famed for. They were afraid their enemies, Darkspawn or otherwise, would corrupt them to control the Judu Des clan to be their perfect weapons against their rule. And it all started cause both Dred and Shred were the most violent and strongest critics against the Unity, and because they both swore to do whatever it takes to end it."
 * Iago: "Seriously? A council of gods and greater heroes were afraid of two psycotic little horses? Unless those two are like Kratos from god of war and were said to have managed to kill some sort've dragon god, then I don't think they have anything to worry abo-"
 * Zred: "That's exactly what Shred and Dred did, you moronic bird!"
 * Iago: "Awha...."
 * Zred: "You mean you never heard the story of the Last Dragon God of Dragonitca?"
 * Icky:... Awha?
 * Zred: (Sighs) There was these extremely god-like dragons in the past that lived during the reign of the Alicorns and were the guardians of all dragons. They were also very powerful defenders that killed slayers like the Des Clan. They were hunted for sport by the Draconequui during the Chaos Wars until there was one left. Then when the last one threaten to wipe out all of the Judu Des clan, Dred and Shred stood up to him and slayed him. Even to a Dragon God, Dred and Shred were undefeatable. Their swords reduced it's proud skales into worthless bloody nothings. The Last Dragon God was reduced to be a pitiful corpse of his former glory. That's how even dragons feared the Judu Des name ever since. If even a Dragon God can't defeat them, no one can.
 * Icky: "...... We.... Were f****** with someone who asended, from a duo of GOD KILLERS?!"
 * Zred: "Well, tecnecally, those dragon gods weren't real gods persay. They were just a particularly powerful breed of dragons. Even their bones are made of great metal, which is what Shred and Dred used to make their trademark swords. One of them is what my brother now has. Dred's sword. Shred's sword, which was more serrated and could shred through dragons like a hot knife through butter, had been buried with Shred himself..... At least.... Assumingly. When we came to mourn his resting place days later, his grave was mysteriously dugged up. Sword and everything we gave tribute to was gone.... Even Shred's most prized pocession: an immortal necklace from the dragon god he helped slain. We, kinda assume it never works since we actselly killed the dragon god."
 * Icky: "....... You put a necklace that grants immortality with the body of a dead psycopath who turned your family into a bunch of outdated killers, then you saw his grave was dugged up, AND NEVER REALSIED THAT HE WAS BROUGHT BACK?!"
 * Zred: "What? Don't be rediclious. That thing clearly didn't work because that Dragon God who weared it died, and it never came back."
 * Shifu: "Are you sure it wasn't because Dred was able to REMOVE that necklace AND then finished off the dragon god?"
 * Zred: "Trust me when I say that it never worked. Shred worn it all his life and he still aged."
 * Shifu: "It could've been possable he didn't had immortallity that came with enturnal youth. He just had immortality."
 * Zred: "Well if he IS back, then why was there never any sightings of him?!"
 * Icky: "Yeah, good point. He could've been grave-robbed by vengeful haters that stolen his body to destroy it or have it eaten by sagvingers or something."
 * Zred: "Exactly.... Weirdist thing though.... There was never any sign of shovels."
 * Po: "Well maybe they used their claws to dig him up."
 * Zred: "That was also scares me abit.... There wasn't any signs of grave-robbers. The Coffen wasn't even damaged. It was just cleanly open."
 * Silence.
 * Devon: "..... (Gulp)."
 * Zred: ".... Ok, now that I think about it.... Maybe that stupid necklace DOES work, if though flawwedly."
 * Cynder: "But why did he never caused trouble?"
 * Shifu: "Perhaps he felt his clan did well enough without him and went somewhere to remain undisturbed for a long time..... Until he would get word that Pred has forsaken his legacy."
 * Zred: "And Shred has a very poor sense of forgiveness to those who forsaken our ways."
 * Icky: "Then how the freak are you still alive?"
 * Zred: "That's because I'm not the one who's suppose to continue our legacy. Pred is the one who is.... Suppose..... To...... Continue it...."
 * Po: "..... Wha-oh."
 * Icky: "..... Lady, you realise alchourse that we can't afford to keep quiet about this, right? That would risk allowing a CLEARLY dangerious threat having an element of surprise and allowing Shreddy to pop up whenever he wants and reck s*** to an unprepared Equestia! Since this dude KILLED A DRAGON GOD, I don't think even the Monistairy would survive a attack from him?!"
 * Zred: "But, but, Pred will be desistated!?"
 * Icky: "WOULD YOU RATHER HAVE HIM SUCKER-PUNCHED BY A NIGHTMARISH FAMILY REUNION AND HAVE HIM DISCOVER YOUR FAMILY'S SKELETONS ANYWAY?!"
 * Zred: "I..... I.... No."
 * Healzon: "I'm sorry Zred, but they process a strong arguement. Shred always had relied on being unpredictable to make his attack. It wouldn't be wise to leave Pred in the dark about this, even if it's to keep him from being more ashamed of himself then he already is."
 * Zred: "But, this might forces him to take his own life and-"
 * Cynder: "Then we'll keep Pred from being that stupid over knowing the truth."
 * Zred: ".... Are you sure?"
 * Icky: "We're the same people that stopped him from doing his many other shenanigans before. I think we can stop him from pulling a Japanese suicide here."
 * Zred:...Well...if you're sure about that...then be sure to keep my brother safe.
 * Po: What about Baku and the Flame Clan? Weren't they our prime targets?
 * Healzon: Oh, they'd certainly be threats, yes. But they would be mere poultry compared to Shred. His sword is one of the most dangerous ever welded by the Des Clan. Stronger than even Pred's sword, even capable of shattering it.
 * Icky: Are you kidding? That thing is probably no good. It practically rotted away and became as weak as paper by now.
 * Healzon: Two problems with that throey. Firstly, there's no doubt he can certainly re-craft the sword into becoming as strong as it was before... Or maybe even stronger. But most of all and secondly, the metal of Dragon God metal-bones never becomes useless. It's as enturnal as the fallen god itself. He would shred Baku and the Flame Clan to pieces with it, and make an alcoholic beverage from their blood.
 * Spyro: Yeah, we heard dragon's blood is an alcoholic beverage here before. Just as flammable, too. But enough about that, we need to act fast! Shred's probably on his way even as we speak!
 * Shifu: We might also need to make sure Baku and the Flame Clan aren't caught in the crossfire. Plus, THEY'RE the ones who should be unaware of this secret. If they ever learned Shred plotted their rise to villainy, they'd probably become worse monsters than they were before.
 * Healzon: "Tecnecally, Baku and the Flame Clan were villains without being harmed by the Judu Des clan before. The Flame Clan were known anti-pony cretens and Baku was already a troubled mind by xenophobia as a whole."
 * Shifu: "True. But it was Pred who was respondsable for making them worse then they were previously."
 * Icky: "And they are likely to be pissed about this if Pred being an ass was because of the High Council's own bad call about dealing with Shred and Dred awhile back. And Celestia's a member!"
 * Iago: "Wait..... But didn't we already establish that Malcontent and Baku may've already known?"
 * Zred: "Only most likely of how Shred made the Judu Des clan they are today. They don't fully grasp the full extent of it. They believe that like everyone else, Dred just vanished one day and Shred just took over. Thank Celestia they don't have all the details."
 * Po: "But for how long?"
 * Zred: Well, that may be up to you. You need to balance things out, protecting the Monastery and Pred, preventing Shred and the dragons from damaging each other, and all that other crap. As much as it will pain me to see Pred depressed from knowing his job was based on a lie, it's gotta be for his own good.
 * Alex: Do you think you could come with us to help? I'm sure Pred will accept the truth more if YOU were the one who told him. Plus, Healzon's healing powers could be pretty useful.
 * Healzon: As reasonable as that sounds, I must stay behind. Shred has heard a lot about me during his own time and considered me a good trophy. He could kill me even at my maximum fighting skills.
 * Icky: What are you, a chicken? (Gilda slaps him) OW!
 * Gilda: Not helping.
 * Icky: "I'm just saying that if she's able to talk down a sister of a psyco, I think she can handle an immortal mental-case."
 * Alex: "Besides, you want to give that psyco and others like him the satisfaction that your a cowerd?"
 * Healzon: "By all means no, but, it wouldn't do well to make him satisfived with the possability that I'm a damn fool either."
 * Alex: "Then don't be either! Be brave but smart! Do something so powerful, even an immortal nut-case like him would cry for his mommy at the mere mentioning of your name! Cause think of it! If he can make people afraid of him for beating up a god, then if you could beat up the guy who BEATEN a god, like-minded jerks like him would deside "OHHHH no! I am NOT messing with Healzon! Not after what she did to SHRED JUDU DES?! THE SHRED JUDU DES!?" Because that Shred is CLEARLY A BULLY! And a bully will never stop unless they know your actselly a threat to them! Be an inspiration for all dragons and allow them to be able to stand up to crack-pots like him!"
 * Healzon:... You're right. I should do something smarter than that.... And I think I may already have a plan.
 * Patrick: Well, what is it?
 * Healzon: Well, you see, I'm actually a descendant of a group of dragons that tried to reestablish the long-lost Dragon Gods. Sadly, Slayer clans often greater then even the Judu Des clan natrolly have their nays on our attempts. They were pretty much the reason why I even resorted to hide away. Only half of my large family are left. Now, I feel it's best I lived up to their name, and became something big and brave.
 * Sam: And how will you do that? Wouldn't the loss of the Dragon Gods mean that it would be practically impossible to-
 * Healzon: It's not as impossible as you'd think. The only thing the Dragon Gods left behind was their spells that granted unbelievable magic that was said to be the most pure and powerful of all. Greater than even light and dark magic, and-
 * Icky/Iago/Sparx/Spyro: Equinox magic.
 * Healzon:... What?
 * Spyro:... I suppose I can see why the Dragon Gods would be considered grand guardians. Equinox magic has been said to grant many things including immortality, and based on what Golden Oak claimed, not the kind that's bound by morality sickness... For the most part... But limitless immortality.
 * Healzon:... What exactly is Equinox magic?
 * Spyro: It's a combination of the opposite forces of any magic, whether it be chaotic or harmonic in equestia's case, or light and dark for the rest of the worlds. It has proven to be unbelievably stronger than even dark magic. It can grant some amazing things such as overcoming dark powers, unlimited power, and it beats overwhelming odds and even Darkspawn magic.
 * Cynder: And you do seem to have the potential inside of you, Healzon. I can sense it. Your family has been training you well to carry on the Dragon Gods' legacy, which means that you can truly beat Shred.
 * Iago: Reality check, those Dragon Gods were no match for Dred and his schizophrenic psychopathic brother, how do you expect HER to beat him now, even when he's likely ONE hell of an old fuck now?
 * Healzon: I already said I had a plan. Though it's risky and could mean a few hazardous events, but I believe it's the best I can come up with in this situation. Okay, here's the plan....

Chapter 3: Baku Rekindles with the Surviving Flame Clan
In a wasteland.
 * A skulled-cave was seen.
 * A still Skeletised Malcontent was seen.
 * Malcontent: "..... I can't believe this happened to me."
 * ???: "Now now, my son. Your father would want you to be stronger then this. This sulking would not amuse him."
 * Malcontent: "I'm sorry mother. I can't help it. I am stuck with a curse even your magic can't fix! I'm gonna be a skeletal freak forever! Our bloodline's a dead-end?!"
 * ???: "Your father would insist that you could've just as easily avoided the betrayers spell and deminstraight your Flame Clan might on them!"
 * Malcontent: "They acted too quickly, mother! Even quicker then my impeccable reflexes!? Grrr?! I bet it was the stupid luck dragon's fault?! He was a has-been as a luck dragon since he lost his horn to a knight?!"
 * ???: "You can't nessersarly blame him for your own failure to protect yourself, my son.... Though I agree that he could've helped prevent our followers from turning on us like that. If only his more powerful cousins weren't easily cohersed into Celestia's side. And if only that powerful Eagle-Beak wasn't truely a misguided fool! The likes of them could've helped us!"
 * Malcontent: "Well, Eagle-Beak's a deludional old f*** and that over-rated over-glorifived half-wit Taiku is a disgrace to his ironicly evil family name of the Maleficent clan?! And that Haku dweeb isn't any different! This isn't fair?! The Flame Clan used to be a beloved dragon family name! We were the most devoted to the great Dragon Gods!? And when we stated we wanted their honor avenge with the death on just TWO damn puny ponies, WE GET PANNED FOR IT?!"
 * ???: "That because our ansister leader acted too much like a blood-thristy baffoon about it that it scared away those that otherwise felt our pain. We gained our ill-fated reputation as anti-pony fanactics ever since. And if a new Dragon God were to be found, I doubt our sins would be easily over-looked."
 * Malcontent: "You wanna know what sucks MORE?! The High Council had the oppertunity to get rid of both of the last dragon god's murderors, and WHAT HAPPENED?! THEY ONLY DONE IT TO DRED?! The worse one Shred was allowed to live!? BECAUSE DRED ASKED FOR THAT IN RETURN OF HIS OWN DAMN LIFE!? And you know what dad always believed?! Shred is somehow respondsable of making the Judu Des clan worse?!"
 * ???: "But it couldn't exactly be proven otherwise. For all we know, Shred just merely motivated his clan to be even more violent to our kind and other mythics out of a broken heart."
 * ??? 2: "What if I were to say.... That is only half-true."
 * Malcontent growled.
 * Baku was seen.
 * Baku: "Shred did motivated the Judu Des to be more violent, but not just out of being a broken hearted twit.... HE WAS SCHIZOPHRENIC?!"
 * Malcontent pounced onto a surprise Baku!
 * Malcontent: "I THOUGHT I TOLD YOU TO NEVER SHOW YOURSELF IN FRONT OF ME AND MY MOTHER AGAIN, YOU IDIOT!?"
 * Baku: "BUT, BUT, I BROUGHT SOME PROOF THAT, (BRINGS OUT A DUSTY DIARY), THAT PROVES YOUR FATHER'S THROEY IS MORE THAN CORRECT!? Miss Violent, control your son...."
 * ???: "Malcontent.... For now, let the fool say his piece."
 * Malcontent: "BUT MOTHER-"
 * ???: "Remember that the Flame Clan DOESN'T APPRESIATE DISOBEDIENCE?! (Echos as the cave shook abit)."
 * Malcontent growled as he obey angerly.
 * Malcontent: ".... THIS BETTER BE GOOD, LUCK DRAGON WASHOUT!?"
 * Baku: Well, this was Shred's old diary back when he was still around. It seems to explain some more detail in the reasons for the Des Clan's sins. You see, Shred WANTED us dragons and the other mythic beings to be more evil.
 * "Violent"/Malcontent:... What?
 * Baku: As I said before, he was a schizophrenic pony who suffered an insane personality. We all know of his accomplishments, ESPECIALLY on his own. You should know that... It was he who was the one who first began the creed to kill dragons and mythic beings. It says right here..."Dear Diary... It is just unacceptable. The Judu Des Clan is starting to be less reliable now. With the filthy Unity around, the need to be grand heroes and everything we stand for is being threatened. Dragons and the other Mythics are supposed to be... "Our friends" now. THAT IS JUST BULLS***! Why would I ever wanna be friends with these beasts? They're nothing but natural greed and monstrous behavior. Some of our family was killed by these abominations before we became heroes. If that freaking Unity hadn't come up, we'd still be needed. But now that dragons and other mythics are growing more friendly, they established that they would no longer need us.... Unless... Unless we could make them evil again. And I already have just the plan for that which might be so insane... It just might work. I'll have the Des Clan slaughter without a thought. It'll motivate those beasts into being what they truly are. Then we'll be needed more than ever. Hell, it'll motivate those dragons and mythics that are STILL evil even more. There's going to be some blood spilled on both sides, but if this works... The Des Clan will celebrate with a drink of fresh dragon's blood! My absolute favorite! By tomorrow, the Des Clan will be acknowledged once again! (Cackles)..." Wow, the crazy basturd actselly wrote his chackles in here.
 * Malcontent:... You mean to tell me... That Shred... MADE THE DRAGONS AND MYTHIC BEINGS COMMIT SINS ON PONIES JUST BECAUSE HE COULDN'T ACCEPT FULL RETIREMENT?!?... (Screams loudly, scaring off birds and wildlife) IT'S BAD ENOUGH WE BECAME BAD WITH THE LOSS OF THE DRAGON GOD, BUT NOW HE MADE US WORSE?!
 * "Violent":... How is that going to help us, Baku? If you think it could be of use to us, then think again. It's not exactly a strongly kept secret to even extreme enemies of the Judu Des clan that Shred was never in his right mind. So even if both they and the ponies knew of this, it'll be easily justifived as him just being a loonitic. Sure, it WILL demoralised Pred, but it's likely the heroes at large will tell him of it first to ensure WE don't get the satisfaction of doing it to make him kill himself.
 * Baku: Oh, that's not all! The last page is quite more interesting than this one. (Reads) "Well... It seems that the immortality necklace of the dragon god I helped my brother killed does work, but not a fully benifictal way. I've grown old and wrinkled.... However... I still feel young and strong. Perhaps this immortality necklace has a different effect on ponies, or it's merely just a necklace with immortality without enturnal youth included and that the Dragon God I got it from was just lucky he doesn't age so quickly for OBVIOUS reasons. At the time being, I still don't look bad, but I bet in several years time, I would look like something ponies were not meant to live along enough to see what they would look like later down the centauries. I imagine I would look like a hidious skeletal old prune by that time and almost barely rekindiseable as a pony. But one thing is obvious. I still have the strength and skill to kill non-pony creatures of godly strength.... Perhaps... I think I have an idea. I will ensure that my legacy is carried on forever by watching my family prosper and do great things. I must not let my plans fall for any reason... Not even to friendship! I shall fake my death, which given my current age, I'll just go to sleep and never wake-up and mimic natural causes, then I shall do the rest myself, living on for as long as time turns. If ANYTHING comes up that threatens what I have done... I'll have to take drastic measures and reveal myself as the next, eternal, harbinger, of mythic being and creature death."
 * Malcontent:... Well... Fu-
 * "Violent": HONEY, LANGUAGE!
 * Malcontent: "In human years, I'm practicly 19 mom!"
 * "Violent": "Even so, members of the Flame Clan should know better then to be as valgur as sailors!"
 * Malcontent: "But you cussed once or twrice too! And you didn't complained about me cursing earlier!"
 * "Violent": "I meant UN-NESSERSARY vulgarity."
 * Baku: Do you two even realize what this means?
 * "Violent": (Sighs) I thought it couldn't be possible. But now it apparently is. Shred's back, and out for revenge.
 * Baku: And you know something else I recently discovered? He's striking now! Apparently, Pred has officially retired. And you know WHY?
 * "Violent"/Malcontent:... Friendship?
 * Baku: Precisely! The weak-but-kind-heart of that recluse yellow passionate pony has finally melted away the cruel edge of Pred's heart, and he's residing in the Reforming Monastery owned by the future-parenting Princess Cadance.
 * Malcontent: Oh, boy, this is NOT going to play well in Shred's favor....
 * Baku: Alchourse not! Shred is likely gonna attack that stupid monistairy just to force Pred out of retirement and scare him and those Daughters back into killing Mythics and Dragons!
 * Malcontent: "Well if even a Death God was unsuccessful in taking anyone from that place, even god-killer Shred is not gonna do any better! Espeically since Candence is not the only active defender! That Amutt guy was said to have been able to grab a projectile of a deadly weapon like it was nothing! It didn't even burned his hand! He was just holding it like it was really just a toy!
 * Baku: "That's why we're gonna do those Monistairy losers a faver and prevent them from even having to waste their time with Shred.... We're gonna go there first and END PRED ONCE AND FOR ALL!?"
 * Malcontent: "WHAT?! MOTHER, PLEASE TELL ME YOU DON'T ACTSELLY AGREE WITH HIM ON THIS, RIGHT?!"
 * Violent finally reveils herself as a slender, spined, Dark Cynder-eqsed bodied dragon with Maleficent-like horns with violet coloring with a tip that resembles a pike.
 * Violent: "Realisticly Baku, like my son said, even we wouldn't fare any better. They wouldn't even need Amutt to defeat a few rouge dragons. And let's not forget about those misfits. They aided in beating down Rougber and Toron, two of our most powerful members back when we HAD a group dedicated against Pred, and you honestly want to risk having to deal with THEM?!"
 * Baku: "That's why I corrupted a local sea dragon to weaken their defences abit. Their Monistairy is on a semi-islotated island seen off the bay of Manehatten."
 * Malcontent: "It's not that Steve loser, isn't it? All they have to do is fix his nose hair and-"
 * Baku: "No. This sea dragon would make him look like a little garner snake. It's known as, "The Manehatten Sleeping Serpent"."
 * Violent: "THE SLEEPING SERPENT?! YOU AWOKE THE SLEEPING SERPENT?! YOU FOOL?! IT'LL END UP DESTROYING MORE THEN THE MONISTAIRY!?"
 * Baku: "I control the creature now. And already.... I commanded it to reach torwords the Monistairy. It's only a matter of time."
 * Malcontent: "MOTHER, PLEASE TELL ME YOUR NOT GONNA-"
 * Violent: "I am not fully behind this, Baku.... But I am curious to see where this goes. We'll entertain your plan, Baku. But only because I must not refuse the oppertunity to make the murderor of my husband pay for his transgressions. But be warned. I still think your far from being like your cousins in terms of power. But if this goes well..... You might've have mostly redeemed yourself, Baku."
 * Baku gave a confindent grin as Malcontent growled.

Chapter 4: Taiku crashes Baku's plans.
The Monistairy. Flame Clan Hideout Monastery Flame Clan's Hideout
 * A great giant serpented Sea Dragon was seen slowly looming over the Monistairy as it was about to fire a blast of boiling water over it, when-
 * ???: "I THOUGHT I SMELLED SOME OF MY COUSIN'S HANDY WORK OVER HERE?!"
 * The Sea Dragon looked in surprise and saw Taiku and Haku flying over head!
 * Taiku: "And you must be the Manehatten Sleeping Serpent. Shouldn't you be going back to your sleep, bro? You tend to be cranky when you don't get a millenda of sleep."
 * The Sea Dragon roared and aimed to fire it's boiling water at Taiku and Haku!
 * Taiku: "Case, in, point. OK GANG, READY THE NETS!?"
 * Sea Dragon: (Roars at it fires it's boiling water as the two dodged)
 * Malcontent: (Seeing the whole thing through a magic portal)...Well, Baku, it seems your bad luck is STILL being a pain in your ass.
 * Baku:...(Squeals) GODDAMN IT!! THIS IS SURE TO FALL FLAT IN MY FACE AGAIN!!! WHY?!? WHY DOES THIS F****** BULLS*** HAPPEN TO ME?!?
 * Malcontent: Face it, you suck at this.
 * Violent: Honey, manners! I'm sure he can handle this.
 * Baku: I'd better! SEA DRAGON, FINISH THEM!!!
 * Taiku: (They continued fighting off the Sea Dragon ready to set up the net, but they ultimately won as the sea dragon was caught in the net)
 * Haku: I swear, Baku is making this difficult.
 * Taiku: Who can blame him? He's been in bad luck all his life, and none of his plans work out because of it. I mean, I have made it a priority to find a magical being more powerful than Celestia to heal his horn, but...(Sighs)...I gave up on that pursuit long ago. Now we'd better warn the others to watch out for Baku. (They flew off)
 * Baku:...(He whine-screams as tears actually formed) F******-C***-S*****S!!! (Wails loudly) I WANNA, I WANNA BE A LUCK DRAGON!! I WANNA!! I WANNA, I WANNA, I WANNA, I WANNA, I WANNA, I WANNA!!!
 * Malcontent: And once again, you've proven that you are of no use to us. Face it, pal, you're just not a good villain with the condition you have. So get out!
 * Violent: Honey, don't make me ground you again! He's clearly not having a great time with his mental breakdown. He can still win.
 * Baku: (Stops crying)...There is?
 * Violent: Yes. We may as well have to do this for you. We'll finish off Pred, and rid Shred of the chance to carry on his legacy. But don't expect any miracles. If this fails, then you blow your last chance!
 * Malcontent: It's gonna fail anyway. You failed to stop him once, then-
 * Violent: THAT'S IT, YOU'RE GROUNDED, YOUNG MAN!
 * Malcontent: I SAID I'M 19, I'M NOT A YOUNG MAN!!!
 * Violent: But you're still my son, and I don't care how old you are, you're gonna do what I say, AND GET IN YOUR DAMN ROOM BEFORE I SPANK YOU INTO A PILE OF BONES!!!
 * Malcontent: (Cries and runs off)
 * Baku:...Oh, GOD, that was amusing. Serves him right for that attitude of his.
 * Violent: Now then, I shall get started. I am among the most powerful members of the Flame Clan, and the only one who had fought Pred multiple times and lived. But remember the warning I told you, Baku! This is your last chance! This fails, then we're no longer going to help you!
