day broke the night sky as the sun rose from the mountains, I awoke from the soft couch check on the others to see if they were awake. Scope was still fast asleep and so was canvas while rainbow was in the kitchen making breakfast for all of us. i went back to the couch to sit down and look at the scenery for a little bit

i hear canvas walk down the hall along with scope next to her. there was a knock on the door so I got up to answer it, it was a tall figure with a hood,assassin clothing and 2 daggers made of dragon scales along with an arc blade.

Neon: who are you?
Stranger: come with me or die
Neon: you think it's that easy?

I kick him away from the doorstep and told canvas the throw me my sword, I catch my sword and put it against his throat and made sure he couldn't reach his arc blade or daggers. I threw him in the living room and asked questions.

Neon: who are you?
Stranger: Athan
Neon: I've heard of you, you the legendary black assassin that lead an army of rebels thousands of years ago during the Great War, why are you here?
Athan: you are the most wanted...... Pegasus.....thing with the highest bounty
Neon: so much for the best assassin, say what should we do with him?
Everyone: kill him
Neon: you heard them

I decapitated his head and watched his body twitch with what little movement it had but something was wrong, the veins slowly grew back along with the spine,wind pipe, everything. His whole head was regenerating at a moderate rate, everyone except me gasps in disgust at the scene. I just starred, starred him down as he slowly regenerated his head following a slight chuckle

Athan:you think it'll be that easy dragon?
Neon: I needed to be sure it is you, the assassin that drove my kind to extinction. The one pony who was foolish enough to even come find me, the infamous Athan!
Athan: guilty as charged little scale yet you have far more to know about your kin.
Neon: yeah like the part where you murdered my parents in cold blood

I knew exactly how to keep him dead but I needed him alive for personal reasons
