Chapter 1

"Father? Are we going to be ok? Y-you know, are we..... going to live?" The patchwork colt was shaking where he stood. A wave of heat and fear washed over the two as they waited for the inevitable. "Son we're in quite a situation here, but please, have a little faith in your father. Hehe, after all there is a reason we've survived this long." The beast shot a quick grin down to the shivering foal. "Now go hide somewhere, things are about to get a bit....Chaotic." Moments after he found a hiding spot two tan alicorns burst in through the wall. " You are surrounded monster!" The darker of the two shouted. "Surrender now and or we will resort to force!" The two were flying around in circles above the beast. " Surrender? Where would the fun in that be? *Chuckle* No if your not going to listen to me than i have no reason to give you the same courtesy." At those words the monster knocked the two mystic beings out of the sky with just the snap of his finger, or well claw. They crashed to the ground as gracefully as they had entered, except before they had wings. "What did you do to us Monster!" The lighter one spoke. "Oh nothing much, I've just decided to change the tone a bit. I mean *Laughter* what fun is it when you're all the way up there and we're down here?" "We?" Their scowls turned to demented grins as they looked at each other. " So you mean there are more of you?" Their stares seemed to give off a darker more sadistic feel than when they entered. "Oh, it seems I've mentioned to much. Oh well its not like I was going to let either of you leave anyway." Another snap of his claw and the two's horns were missing. A jolt of terror shot through both of the previously all powerful beings as they realize just what their situation is. It was silent for a moment, long enough for the little creature to stick his head out from his hiding spot. "I-Is it safe?" The two ponies stood in shook as the little one came out. "He's not one of you? He's just a regular colt! Hand the foal over at once monster!" The darker on showed fear in his voice this time. "Now do you really think your in a position to be making demands. And besides he no normal pony." The large beast pulled back a bit of the little ones hair revealing to small horns. " What are those!" The lighter one yelled in disgust. "Haha, I see your little princess didn't tell you what your really after now did she? You see this little one here? He is the wonderful creation of yours truly and the princess. I'd love to introduce you to your future ruler. Millennium." Millennium backed away into his fathers shadow. "We were told to search for a young draconequus, the last of its kind. You can't be it, Y-your ancient!" " Yes, yes it's true I AM ancient. But- Wait did you say last of his kind?" "Ye-." He didn't give him a chance to answer. " Does that foul really think she got rid of me that easily?!" Oh thats just hilarious! Yes, the task at hand, despite his appearance young Millennium here is a draconequus just like me. You see these dark bands on him?" The two hesitantly nodded. "These change his form to look like any normal pony, a little trick i whipped up to help him hide in plain sight." The two contorted in fear for a moment. The darker one spoke up. " Why are you telling us this?" A grin that stretched from side to side appeared on the old beasts face. " Because, like I mentioned earlier neither of you are going to be leaving here alive." The old beast snapped his claw. The two shared a quick glance at each other. A split second later both were transformed into two bright pink party balloons. " Hahahaha, Well that lasted longer than i had hoped." The beast said wiping a tear from his eye as the two balloons floated helplessly into the sky. "Are they gone?" Millennium spoke quietly. "Oh yes my son very much so. Now I'm going to do something that wont seem to make any sense but I need you to trust me." He had a rare amount of sternness in his voice. "Yes father, of course." The beast smiled "What a wonderful child you are. It pains me to do this, but if you are to have any chance of living I must do this." "Do wha-?" He didn't give him the chance to finish. He snapped his claw and turned his son to stone. " I'm sorry son, but when the time comes this will wear off and you will be free. Until then you'll be just another statue to admire." A single tear ran down the side of his face. " DISCORD!" Well so much for a precious moment. "Where are you! What have you done with my son! " Discord wiped the remaining water from his eyes. "Oh Tia, I think you mean our son." She turned with a look of pure rage on her face. " What have you done with him!" Yelled the celestial princess. " Oh Tia, *Chuckle* He's somewhere safe now." She looked around in a panic, her eyes met on a lone statue in the center of the ruins. " What have you done to that foal!" Discord held back emotion. " Oh him? He got in my way so i turned it to stone." "Your a monster!" Her face was still filled with rage. " Yes yes, something like that." He would never let her know but after the spell that was cast on Millennium he was both physically and magically drained because of the sheer amount of will it required. She glared at him with burning eyes. " You know seeing this little one trapped in stone has given me and idea of your punishment." " Oh has it now?" He shot her a quizzical look. "Yes." The grave seriousness in her voice shot through him like a bolt of lightning. " I think I'll turn you to stone." His worry faded. " Oh what an imagination Tia. How original." He struck a pose. "Well? I'm waiting?" She looked confused "You don't seem to be taking me seriously? Not like you ever did." She turned away and released a burst of magic from her horn, it struck the tip of Discords tail. Slowly it began to turn his entire body to stone. Inch by Inch. The pain? Unimaginable. But he wouldn't give her the satisfaction of any fear or pain. Right before the stone fully encased him he shouted one last sentence. "Have a nice Millennium Tia." He fell over now as stone cold as his son next to him. The princess walked over to them. " You poor innocent child, this shouldn't of happened to you. Funny you remind me of my....son."

Chapter 2

(Takes place EXACTLY 1,000 years after previous chapter)

The sun had just began to rise, bits of light seeping in through the old and decaying structure. There in the center of the building stood a lone statue, a last attempt of freedom set in place one thousand years ago. One whose time of imprisonment was coming to an end. The time was about noon, the sun shone directly overhead through a collapsed part of the roof directly at the stone figure. All fell silent. There was a brief sparkle on the statues backside and from the tips of his now massive horns to his mighty hooves the stone crumbled away. For the first time in a thousand years he opened his eyes. The light blinded him, he hissed and retreated to the shadows. It felt normal to him. He slowly realized what he did. He moved. " I-I'm free?" He stopped. "My voice? It's....different." He looked down and saw his massive hooves. A short burst of panic flowed through him. He turned and looked behind him. A large mark now was displayed on his side, it appeared in the form of a snake biting the end of its tail forming a circle. "Wha?" He stumbled forward back into the light once again closing his eyes to shield them from the blinding sun. He slowly began to open his eyes glaring straight into the sky. " Where am I?" He paced around the open room pondering the situation he was in. " I-I remember...My name. My name is Millennium. But i was just a foal, not this." He looked at his ancient reflection in a broken window. "What happened to me?" He turned around to come face to face with the crumbling remains of his old prison. " This stone, FATHER!" Panic took him over. He turned in circles still not used to his now larger frame. "I have to help him, i still have....time." He paused looking at his surroundings. " This place, its crumbling, it looks....old. Oh no how long have i been here?" He didn't wait to find out, he stormed out the door in full gallop. Well tried.

He tripped and stumbled most of the way still adjusting to his now larger body. Eventually he found himself walking through the thick forest path. "This place, somethings off with it. It dosnt feel natural." He thought to himself. Further ahead something blocked his path. It resembled a light orange pile of fur. Its middle rising up and down methodically. He approached it with curiosity, but as he drew closer he discovered it was alive. Very alive. The massive beast easily twice his size rose from the ground and let out a horrendous roar. The sheer proximity he was to the roar was enough to blow Millennium back skidding a few feet. "Wow, you don't look to happy do you?" He said almost jokingly as the monster drew closer. It reared its massive paw into the air and swung down. But something stopped it. There was an almost un-seeable blur of color that bolted past him and into the beast. He opened his eyes from what seemed forever and saw a rainbow blob on top of his attacker. The beast stood up and ran off whimpering, the rainbow maned mare walked towards him with a look of concern and anger. "Hey whats the big deal! Don't you know these woods are filled with trouble!?" Millennium stood there still in shock from the her little display. "Hey you alive there!" She approached him with a new look of concern. "Hey? You alright?" She was but feet from him. "Hmm? Yes im ok. Thank you for your um, assistance." She came closer brushing against his side. " No problem, names Rainbow Dash. Whats an old coot like you doing in a dangerous place like this?" She seemed to ask with genuine concern. " Well truth is um Rainbow Dash, I'm not really sure." She tilted her head in confusion. "What'da mean you don't know?! Most ponies wouldn't even come in here if they had to! And I find you, some old guy out here alone." He turns at her with a look of annoyance. "Old! I'd have you know I'm...." He stared at the ground remembering his current form. "W-well why are you here then?" The question struck her, her face blushed red. "Well i guess i don't really have a reason myself." They shared a laugh. Then she asked. "Hey whats your name?" He hesitated telling her but it slipped out. " I'm Millennium" "Millennium eh? You don't sound like your from around here." That last part struck him. Here. " If you don't mind me asking where exactly is here?" "Well your in the Everfree Forest right now. But I just came from Ponyville. It's not that far from here. You know if your tired from...wherever you've been." She looked him up and down. He realized he was still covered in bits of stone and dust. " I could always show you the way there?" He pondered the offer for a moment. "Well a place to rest would be nice." Her face lit up for a moment. "Great! Then its settled. Follow me ill show you the way there. And with those words they were off. It felt strange to him, for however long he had been in that statue nothing really seemed that different from what he remembered. Except this "Ponyville". He couldn't remember a place with that name from before. Could it be a new town? The idea rambled around in his head before he finally asked. " So Rainbow? How long has this Ponyville been around?" She stopped and looked at him in confusion. " I don't know a while, maybe a hundred years? Why'd you ask?" One hundred years! The idea of that rung in his head. "Um...no reason, just curious." They walked in silence for a while, they crossed over the crest of a nearby hill and there it was in all of its humble glory. "So this is Ponyville? What a quint little town." "Yeah its pretty awesome. Hey! Let me introduce you to my friend, she knows everyone here. I'm sure she can help you get you a place to stay." He could barely hear her now, he was lost in thought. "Ive been gone for at least one hundred years.... That means, Father. Theres no way he'd still be around here." "Hey? Hey! You listening?" He shook out of his deep thought. " Oh sorry, yes that would be amazing. Thank you." " Heh no problem, always willing to help a pony in need." She looked up. " Been meaning to ask you? Whats with your horns? You a unicorn or something?" He twitched with shock at the question. "Oh those....."

Chapter 3

(About 300 words got cut off of the end, They here now :l )

He had a hard time explaining his horns. Considering even he didn't know why they were like the way they are now. Before they were just two sets of duel nubs on the top of his head. Now they had grown longer at least two feet long each intertwining with one another to form two spiraling horns. However unlike the horns of unicorns his grew backwards. " You know the last time i saw a horn like that was quite a while back, about a year. Some freak named Discord broke out of a statue, and no joking made it rain chocolate." Those words wrung in his head. "Discord, Father..." The words escaped him in a quiet whisper. Rainbow seemed to hear them. " Huh? Father?" He twitched. "Oh, Nothing. Say is that Discord fellow still around?" She looked at him with concern. "Um, yeah kinda. But i don't think hes really in a social mood." So he's really still around!" She snorted and crouched down. " You seem awfully interested in him for some reason." She glared at him. " *Chuckle* Well of course i would. After all he is my father." With those words he began trotting forward leaving the stunned mare behind. " He. Father. What?!" She bolted toward him with her trademark speed. "Hey get back here!" She stopped in front of him. " What exactly do you mean father?" She said almost threateningly. " I mean for starters you don't even look like him, he was a draconni something. Your... well im not sure what you are with those horns, definitely not anypony I've ever seen." He sighed. " Well you did save me after all, so I guess I do owe you an explanation." She aggressive look died down a bit as she took a sat on a nearby stump. " Well you better start talking".

He spoke to her for hours. His story and life spilling out to this stranger. " And well, here I am now." She sat there stunned at the tale that was told. " That dosnt sound like the Celestia I know, she kind, forgiving, just the peak of an awesome pony!?" "Well I guess things have changed. Alot apparently." He sighed and stared at the ground. " And you.... Your one of those things Discord was. A Draconequus? But those bands on you keep you looking like a normal pony? You know all this your saying is a bit hard to believe?" He chuckled to himself. "Well would you like me to show you?" He didn't wait for an answer. He tilted his head toward the ground and released a magical aura. All eight of the bands popped at the back and fell to the ground. A split second later Millennium was enveloped in a bright light. When her vision returned she was face to face with a young Draconequus. "Well what do you think?" He spun in the air enjoying his real body for the first time in a thousand years. "Y-you look just like him but, but younger." Her words trailed off lost in amazement. But then she rared back and flared her nostrils. " So doesn't that mean your here to free him so you can wreck chaos all over Equestria?!" He snickered again. " Oh such spunk. But no I have no urge to spread chaos. Unlike the stories your princess told you not all draconequus have the natural desire for disorder. My father was deeply hurt by Celestia, and thats why he did what he did." He floated in closer. "So I ask again can you take me to his statue?" The rainbow mare backed up hesitantly. "I-I couldn't. I'm not even sure where he is anymore. After the last incident Celestia hid him away somewhere." All traces of humor left his face. " Then take me to her". She nodded in understanding. "I don't really think i could take you to her but I have a friend who probably could. But you know before we go anywhere you should really but those bands back on. Not all ponies would react to kindly to how you look right now." She grinned sheepishly. "Oh yes, of course." The bands floated up onto his limbs and clamped down, and yet again there was another flash as he floated down back to the ground. " Well, shall we go?" She nodded and began the slow quiet journey to town. It was dark now as they arrived at a library. Rainbow trotted up to the door and knocked. " HEY TWILIGHT, GET DOWN HERE I GOT SOMEPONY FOR YOU TO MEET!" A few seconds passed till the door creaked open, they were answered by a small purple dragon. " Oh hey Rainbow Dash, Twilight isn't here right now. What'da need?" " We'll ive got someone here she needs to meet." She stepped back revealing a massive ash grey stallion. " Hello." His voice shook the little dragon. "Wow, where'd you find this one Dash?" She snickered. "Well he was just sorta standing out in the middle of the Ever Free Forest." "He what!?" " Yeah LONG story." The dragon shook himself off. " Um well, Twi shouldn't be to much longer you can just wait in here." They both entered the library. "So do you have any idea where she is?" The little dragon shrugged in response. " Not sure, We got a letter from the princess this morning. Seemed pretty important, mentioned something about something breaking free in the..... wait where did you say you found him?" Rainbow shook in her seat. " The uh, Everfree Forest." Spike squinted. " Yeah, Everfree Forest." Millennium's stare intensified. " What are you implying, little dragon?" The stare cut through him like a sword. " I'm just saying man. Something big happened there. The princess seemed really worried." He rose a brow. " You said it was a letter how could you of known?" Spike scathed at the back of his head. " Well when its your job to receive letters from one pony, you kinda pick up on somethings." His glare backed down and a smile formed. " Yes im sure you do." They sat in awkward silence for a few minutes when finally the door creaked open and a familiar voice was heard. " Spiiiiike, I'm home." The purple pony froze as she walked inside. " Um hey Rainbow, what...brings you here...Who is that?" The massive stallion stood up. " Hello Twilight, My name is Millennium. And I believe im the one your princess sent you to look for." Twilight stood for a moment dumbfounded at the statement. " Y-you, what?!" He sighed in frustration. " You have no idea how old this is getting my dear." And for the second time that day the lengthy process of Millennium's story was told.

Chapter 4

The story was about at its midpoint, around the area right before he was turned to stone. " I could see something flicker in my fathers eye that last time he looked at me. I just ignored it then but...now... I realize he was apologizing for what he was about to do. " Most of the story Twilight was on the edge of her seat completely enthralled by the story he was telling. He had paused a moment for dramatic effect and it was killing her. " And then what! Come on, don't stop there!" He could only laugh at the purple pony. " And well" The words stung him. " He turned me to stone. The next thing i know im awake looking like this, ancient." Twilight stood there dumbstruck. "HE TURNED YOU TO STONE!? I knew Discord was bad, but turning his own son into stone!" He raised his hoof in defense. " No no my dear you misunderstand his intentions. What he did to me was an act of kindness. And if what your saying is true, that my father is currently encased in stone hidden away somewhere. That means he saved me from her." That last word, the way it was spoken got agitated Twilight. " You keep talking about Celestia like she was a villain, the bad guy! What did YOU do to make her go after you?!" He glared at her with a stare that would put a cockatrice to shame. " What did I do!? I was born! From the moment of my birth SHE has been hunting me and my father. SHE claimed to have discovered some link between her dying race and me. so SHE made the decision that all FOUR of the remaining alicorns had more of a right to a future than her new born son." Some of the seriousness drained from his face. " My father made sure to cut that number down to size." They stood there glaring at each other. Twilight's one of disgust and his one of rage. His glare faded away as he looked to other mare in the room. " Mrs. Rainbow i believe you said she was the one who could help me get to Celestia? Is this true?" Rainbow moved nervously in her seat. " Well she could. If you know...Twi?" Rainbow raised an eyebrow staring at her friend. " Why would i want to help him? Im sure all he has on his mind is revenge! And lets say he frees his father? What then?! He'll just rampage like he did before, but this time he'll know what to expect!" She looked over at him eyes still burning with aggravation. he slowly rose from the couch he was resting on. " I see we will not be receiving any help from this one, Mrs. Rainbow if you'd still like to accompany me the offers still open." She nodded and began to follow him out the door. Twilight stopped them on the way out. " Rainbow Dash you cant really be considering helping him can you?" She didn't answer. She tilted her head to the side and continued on her way out. " *BELCH* ". The noise caught all of their attentions, Spike had received a letter. He read it to himself and then out loud. " I'll be there shortly. Keep him there. " Twilight shook where she stood, but a massive grin stretched across his face. " Well things are about to get interesting."

Chapter 6

*Swoosh* All of the windows blew open as a suspicious gust of wind blasted its way through the library. All of the candles blew out and the only remaining light came from the full moon shining brightly above. The initial gust had spooked everypony, minus Rainbow and Millennium who continued floating about as if nothing had happened. " You there Celestia?!" The drake yelled off into the night. There was no response just another cold gust of wind. " Im here waiting for you! I've just been dyyying to speak with you." He somehow managed to keep the same face hes had all night, even in such a tense moment as now. Twilight's voice started as a whisper but grew in volume. " C-Celestia? Are you there?" The wind blew again, except this time something was different. It sounded like something was speaking through the air, A low humming voice echoed through the entire building. " ...All of you leave. Get out of this building. All of you except HIM..." The voice trailed off and eventually died out. Everypony looked at each other with fear. Rarity spoke first. " Um well I don't know about you girls... but I think im going to go wait outside." She gave a weak smile and trotted off to the door. Twilight nodded in agreement and got up. " Whatever just spoke to us, well i don't think it wants us here when things go down. And really, Id rather just watch from the sidelines." She and Rarity moved to the door when they were stopped by a rather angry sounding voice. " YA, You would leave Twilight." The purple mare spun around. "Excuse me?" Rainbow glared at her. " You know what I mean. When the going gets tough you take the first ride out. Im not leaving." A small grin grew on the drakes face. Quite the opposite of Twilights mood. Her eyes narrowed and she began speaking. " Look Rainbow, Somepony dosn't want us here. Im guessing this is Celestias doing and, well I trust her judgment on this one. If you want to stay thats fine with me, Fluttershy lets go." Her face was hidden behind her mane but her words carried flowed through the air with ease. "..No.."

The response shocked them all, even Millennium whose straight face hes kept melted into a confused look. There was a simultaneous response from everypony. "What?!" The shy mare looked up. " I've just met Millennium, but he's still my friend. Im not going to leave him here alone." Everyponys mouth hung open. Rainbow Dash flew over to her friend and stood beside her. " If you two are willing to leave your friend alone when he needs us then we are telling you GO." Both of the pegasi stood with a look of absolute seriousness. " I-I cant believe it. You two are siding with him. HE'S the enemy here. And he is far from my friend, hes the son of that monster that tried to tear all of us apart! And you're backing him up!?" We're going outside to wait this out!" Rainbows narrowed her gaze. " Your still here?" The stare between the two burned for a few more seconds but broke when The two unicorns stormed through the door. Both the pegisi looked up drake. " Don't worry dude we got your back." She gave him a whack on his patchwork shoulder. A small tear formed in his eye. " T-thank you, both of you... This means...a lot." They all smiled at each other, and Fluttershy finally got her hug. The moment didn't last long as another more booming voice echoed through the walls. " LEAVE NOW, OR SUFFER THE SAME FATE AS HIM." Rainbow jumped up. "We're not leaving! You hear us?! He's our friend and we will not leave him!" The house grew silent. Then the voice came back, cold and threatening. " So be it, Join this monsters side. Burn like his father." They all flinched at those words. It made them cringe. Suddenly every window slammed shut. Rainbow quickly flew to the nearest one and rammed into it. It didn't budge. " Um, guys. the windows are kinda stuck. Around each one was a faint pink glow. Fluttershy rose up. " Um, Rainbow sorry to interrupt but do you smell that?" They all sniffed the air. All of their faces turned pale. Smoke. It slowly began to seep through the bottom of the door, from the top bedroom, form the windows even. That last one confused them all. Panic set in immediately. Fluttershy began to run around the building, even Rainbow had began to lose her cool. But Millennium stood unfazed. He was floating in the air standing straight up, he was looking toward the ground. words began to flow from somewhere deep within him.

" Dear Princess Celestia." The two panicking ponies stopped running at the sound of those words. " Today ive learned something form two of your former subjects." The two walked closer to him. " Ive learned that all it takes to change ones being is a bit of kindness. And when in the face of danger a show of loyalty." The two now stood next to him as the fire began to slowly consume the room. " When I came here all I had were thoughts revenge, get you out of the picture and free my father." He paused for a moment and looked down at the two by his side. " But these two... they have shown me something, That no matter what everponys worth giving a second chance. So I ask you one time, let us go and free my father, and I promise you no harm will come to you, or your kingdom." The fire continued to burn for a moment, but something stopped it. The fire slowly retreated back to the walls and doors leaving ashes in its wake. They all opened their eyes to see close the fire had came to them. Just inches from where they were standing was a solid sea of grey ash forming a circle around them. " W-were ok."

( Next two chapters will be a split storyline, each one with different endings. P.m. me for ending suggestions. One will be a fan ending the other will be the one I have planned out.)

Chapter 7

The smoke had retreated, ash had still filled the room for most, if not all of the books in the library had been destroyed. Almost everything in sight had been burn to a crisp, well with the exception of a small circle in the middle where three terrified friends stood still shaking in fear. Slowly one by one each of them opened their eyes to reveal their fate. " Th-the fires...gone." Rainbow Dash muttered quietly. The timid yellow pegasus squirmed her way out from the tight embrace they shared. " Its gone..... just like that." Her soft voice echoed through the empty room. All of the sudden there was a loud cracking noise at the door. Everyponys attention moved to the noise as the familiar orange pony came bursting through smashing the door in doing so. " Are y'all alright? I saw smoke all the way from sweet apple acres!" Behind her were the rest of their companions, Pinkie stood with the same dopey grin on her face she always seem to carry. Where as right behind her stood Rarity and Twilight, hanging their heads in shame. Twilight slowly rose her head up. " Im s-sorry Rainbow, Fluttershy, for abandoning you two." The sympathy fell from her face. " AND YOU! What did you do! You've burned down my entire home!" He began to speak but was immediately cut off. "HE didn't do anything! You want to know who tried to burn us all?! You little HIGH AND MIGHTY Celestia!" Twilight retorted backwards. "Celestia?! She would never harm another pony!" Fluttershy moved in front of Rainbow. " Um Twilight...Celestia did...try and kill us." Twilight stepped back even farther. " F-fluttershy tell me your lying." Tears began to form in her eyes. Fluttershy and Rainbow nodded. " Twilight I know its hard to believe but, Celestia tried did do all of this." Millennium stepped forward. " Twilight my dear. I do apologize for all the trouble I've caused. But as long as im still here anypony that stands with me, stands against her." Rainbow jumped to his side striking a proud pose, and Fluttershy weakly floated over to his side. Pinkie jumped over to his side. " Oh! I want to help to!" Applejack stood their in shock. " But Rainbow! What happened to being the element of Loyalty? Why in all of Equestria would you side with him?" Applejacks eyes burned with annoyance. Rainbow sighed and looked up. " Because, Ive been thinking. Things are getting a bit...boring around here. And really, a little change in management dosn't sound to bad." Everypony yelled in unison. " WHAT!?" Twilight began stuttering. " B-but Rainbow, He. You? What about...us? The rest of Equestria? And Fluttershy tell me you're not part of this too?" Fluttershy slowly nodded. Applejack glared angrily. " And Pinkie! Get over here! Y'all don't know what your doing." Pinkie spoke with a rather serious voice. " Nope. I know exactly what im doing. You girls remember back when Discord was here and how fun and random everything was? I mean hey, there was even chocolate rain! I think ill be taking the fun side for once." Right after she finished speaking her irises seemed to disappear, replaced by a swirling mess of pink and white. Rarity shifted back. " Pinkie dear! What is wrong with your eyes?!" Fluttershy floated in between the two. " Oh, nothings wrong with her Rarity." She seemed to stare through Rarity's soul revealing her eyes had done the same as pinkies, but only yellow and white. Millennium started laughing. " You know when I woke up in this strange new world I had but one goal. Free my father and leave. But as time passed on I had a better idea. Why not free him and stay? *Chuckle* I mean hey? What could stop two all powerful beings like us?" Twilight scowled at him. " I knew you couldn't be trusted. I knew you'd be just like him!" He raised his claw in defense. " Hey, Hey Im not all to blame here. Your little rainbow colored friend here gave me quite an interesting proposal. She gets me to the princess, Through you of course. And in return I give her whatever her little heart desires." Everypony stared at her with blank expressions not sure of what to do. " R-rainbow? Your part of this? YOU TALKED HIM INTO THIS! LOOK WHAT YOUR DOING TO EVERYPONY!" Rainbow blushed. " You know Twilight for as smart as a pony you make your self out to be you can be even more dense than Pinkie sometimes." Pinkie stood there unfazed still under some hypnotic spell. " Somethings arnt as black and white as all of your books Twilight." She turned and began walking out one of the collapsed walls. " Come on, I know where-" There was a bright flash of light in front of her. " You know what Rainbow Dash?" Before her stood the Sun Goddess herself, Princess Celestia.

Sorry for the delay. Been kinda busy with school and stuff. I got a really good suggestion for a story line and im just going to go with IT and make it two chapters. So that means one left. Hope you've enjoyed it so far.

Chapter 8 (Finale)

Chapter 8

" Oh, hey there Princess..." Rainbow spoke sheepishly. " Hello my Loyal subject. Rainbow back up until she met the scaly tail of the drake behind her. He spoke up. " Oh hello Mother." She didn't respond but just continued her omniscient glare. " I take it your the one who tried to burn me and my friends?" She remained silent. Twilight approached her. " Princess im so glad your here these tw-" She was cut short by a woof risen by her face. " Quiet my faithfulstudent, i am very well aware of the events that have occurred this night." Twilight gave her a look of worry. " But princess did you try and kill them?" She continued her gaze never looking away. " Yes, and believe me I would of continued." Everypony drew a collective gasp, minus Rainbow who was now starting to sweat and Millennium who returned his gaze. " But then he spoke words familiar to me. Preaching about second chances, and staying by friends when he could of easily left those two to burn. When he did that i recalled my fire, I was prepared to enter myself and speak with him." Rainbow lowered herself. " But then your little friend here announced the twos actual plans." Rainbow was now practically cowering behind her partner. Millennium floated nearly inches from the sun goddesses face. " And what are you going to do now? Try and turn me to stone like you did my father? Or are you just going to stand there looking dumb?" He backed away from her while the two continued their stares. Slowly Celestia lowered her gaze from him and adjusted down to the cowering blue pegasus below. " Where's all that confidence now? Run into some big trouble and your cowering like the like your yellow friend always is." Everpony stood in shock. " 'cuese me Princess?" The apple pony spoke. " Since when do you talk down to us? Let'alone anypony?" The princesses gaze lowered and went to Applejack. " Please excuse my tone, you three." She motions to the door. " Leave. I wish to speak to these two alone." The three nodded and left leaving Rainbow, Millennium and the two hypnotized ponies alone with the alicorn.

The door magically slammed as they left the library, the thud echoing through the silent building. Mother and son sat in silence staring at eachother, tension climbing, well for Rainbow anyway. " ENOUGH!" Her yell broke their concentration. " Just what in Equestria are you going to do?! Just stand there and stare at him?!" At that moment the princesses horn burst to life creating a magic box around the rainbow pony. Muffled grunts could be heard from the inside "MGHFFFF MGDFFA!" The princess smiled at her handy work as her gaze fell back to her son. " Now that we wont have any interruptions, I need to ask you something." Seriousness fell from her face and was replaced with grief. " Why?" The drakes expression changed to confusion. " W-what?" A small tear formed in the corner of her eye. " Why....Why did you leave with him?" His look went from confusion to anger. " Leave?! I didn't have a choice in the matter! The moment I was able to do anything on my own Father took me away! He said you were going to kill me! Kill both of us! YOU TRIED TO KILL ME!" All forms of self control were lost at this point, his heavy breathing loud enough for everypony to hear. " HE WHAT!" Her voice carrying more power than a royal Canterlot shout. "HE DARE TAKE MY CHILD AND LIE TO HIM!" Her horn glowed for a brief moment and with a brief flash a statue appeared. "....Father." Breathless words flowed from his lips. " COME OUT YOU COWARD!" Her horn flared again shattering the stone leaving behind a confused snake figure. It slowly rose to the air and spoke in cold and desolate voice. " Hello Celestia." He turned his head. " Son." The princess was shaking with rage now. " WHAT DID YOU TELL HIM!" He just snickered and ignored her as he turned to his son. " So, hows life son?" All of their kind carried signs of old age, but Discord was ancient. His eyes weren't filled with wisdom like you'd expect with age, no, instead his eyes beamed with madness. " No one in the talking mood eh? I have plenty to say to you son. It's been a long time since I last saw you...." His voice trailed off as he approached the enraged alicorn. " So Tia, seems like your still dead set on hunting down the boy?" He glances over his shoulder. " Seems like you've got him right were you want him 'eh? Hahaha" Steam was visibly coming from her nostrils now, eyes glowing red with sheer uncontrollable rage. " WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY SON." The ancient beast cowered at the immense volume of her voice as he raised his hands defensively. " Hey Hey, Im not the bad guy here" A grin crept accost his face. " After all you are the one who's trying to kill him." Through all that has been going on a constant banging sound had been coming from Rainbows cage, but now in the silence it had stopped. The drake lifted an eyebrow inquisitively. " Say whats in there?" A snap of his claw and the multicolored mare fell to the ground in a heap. " Oh, well if it isn't my favorite thrall." The pony struggled to her hooves. " Wh-what the.... Where...Am I?" Millennium spoke. " Mrs Rainbow? Are you ok?" The pony shot back. " WOW! DISCOR- wait why are there...two of you?"

Everypony minus Discord drew a collective gasp. " Mrs Rainbow? It's me? Millennium?" She stood there in confusion. " Listen bud I don't know who you are but, Celestia? Why are you here? AND WHY IS DISCORD NOT A STATUE!" Celestia's glare returned to Discord. " WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER!" He snickered. " Oh Tia, do you really think my influence was actually cut off in that stony prison? I've been having fun with you from there for nearly 1,000 years." Celestias face was blank not sure of what to make of the information she had just received. " You, You've been controlling her? That favor... You were going to set yourself free with her!" He smiled again. " Oh such a clever one arnt you? And just a Millenia short. So if you'll excuse me....." He mad his way to the massive hole in the wall. " STOP!" He turned to face his son a few feet in front of him, wielding a claw full of magic pointed right at his head. " Why did you rescue me?" A short look of worry ran over his fathers face. " Wow wow there son. Lets not be so hasty. Remember, Daddy rescued you from crazy mommy?" He moved forward pushing him into a wall. " Why?" His voice carried nothing but sternness. " Well, you see, I am getting rather old. *Cough* And well.... I needed a new body to move to." His son stood in horror. " You, You..... Monster." His face began to fill with tears. " AND YOU! DEAR MOTHER? WHAT EXCUSE COULD YOU HAVE FOR TRYING TO KILL ME?!" Tears were now freely coming down his face. " I-I." Her words stammered, she was holding back complete emotional breakdown. " I-I didn't have a c-choice... I couldn't stop him... Nopony could... So the only choice I had was to make sure he couldn't be reborn through you..." She began crying as the last word left her mouth. " Mother..." His arms fell as he moved forward into a tight embrace. The two shared a voice. " I'm sorry." The two stood there with all of their onlookers. Rainbow was now teary eyed, and the two zombified ponies stood and groaned. Discord, just stood there wearing a scowl. " Oh foo fum, are you two done making up yet? Because if you are Id like to leave sometime soon." The princess dramatically moved her head up. Her normally gravity defying mane was now limp covering her face. " You... You MONSTER!" Her mane parted like an ocean revealing her glowing white eyes. She stepped forward, floor cracking as she walked. " You have done nothing but destroy everyone's life. I feel like Its time somepony repaid the favor." Her sound echoed through the room like she was everywhere at once. " Now what does that mean my dea-" A small narrow beam shot from her horn landing directly in the middle of his chest. " Now what was that? Your attempt at-" As he spoke his final words a black wormhole opened right inside of him dragging him to wherever time and space deemed fit. Everypony stood in silence until..." WOW what just happened? WOW whys there a hole in the wall! OH Hey Fluttershy! Princess! Wait. HEY PRINCESS." The party pony was bouncing around the room now freed from Discords twisted magic. " Son, Im sorry. Im so so so very sorry for what ive had to put you through. I need your forgiveness. plea-" He sentence was cut short with another tight hug. " I forgive you."

Thanks for sticking with me this whole time. Its been fun. Danke everypony :D

Chapter 5

The room was filled tension. The waiting was killing them, Twilight was worried, Rainbow was fidgeting nervously on the couch, and Millennium was standing by the window looking out into the night sky. Everything was silent, with the exception of Spike who had somehow managed to fall asleep in the corner of the room. The anticipation was killing them. Well mainly Twilight, she had began to sweat a little. She muttered to herself. " Come on Celestia. Where are you?" It seemed that no sound could escape the ancient drakes ears. Without turning he said loud enough for everypony to hear. " Yes where are you? Not like you of all ponys to be late. Especially now." His eyes never left the window. He wasn't sure what he was looking at. It wasn't the stars, or the sky. Just up, waiting for her to arrive.

Minutes began to pass, everypony was getting impatient. When finally the silence was interrupted as Twilight spoke up. " I cant take this anymore! Spike!" The dragon woke from his sleep. " Im going to go to the castle. I need you to watch these two while im gone." He nodded at her. " Yeah no problem Twi." She had began her teleportation spell when there was a rather distinguishing knock at the door. All of them turned to face the door, Twi, Rainbow and Spike recognized who it was but Millennium misinterpreted the new arrival. He pounced at the door knocking it down reveal two very surprised ponys. (Insert loud sequel). Rainbow poked her head out. " Oh hey Fluttershy, Rarity. Whats up?" Her words went unanswered. " My goodness!" She peaked her head around the drake. " Twilight darling, would you care to explain just what THIS is?" Fluttershy had fled the scene hiding behind a tree not that far away, she edged out. " I-Is it safe?" Twilight sighed in frustration. " Ugh, get in here both of you LONG story. "

For the third time the story had been told. The same the Fluttershy and Rarity shared the same faces Rainbow had when she first heard it. A combination of confusion, pity and in Fluttershy's case concern. " Oh, you poor thing, alone for so long." She attempted to nuzzle and console him but was gently brushed away with his claw. " Thank you for your concern but im ok, truly..... Fluttershy was it? " She blushed and stepped away. " Oh yes, Very nice to meet you. I'm Fluttershy. This is-" She was interrupted. " I Am Rarity." She stepped forward looking as elegant as ever. " Pleasure to meet you both, Mrs. Rarity, Fluttershy." Rarity was reluctant shaking his claw but gave in, where as Fluttershy saw no difference between him and a normal pony now. " I must say, for one as young at heart as you claim to be you have exceptional manners.especially for one of... your kind." Twilight yelled at her. " RARITY!" Millennium laughed at them both. " Well keep in mind Mrs. Rarity I am still from Canterlot, a prince at that. And for the record, as ancient as i may look I am still technically a child. You know by immortal standards." Everyone face was suddenly filled with shock. They all yelled in unison. " IMMORTAL?" He couldn't help but laugh again. " Oh did I not tell you? My kind, or so me and my father are immortal beings. My father existed outside the bounds of reality, hence his unnatural powers." The look remained on all of their faces. Twilight spoke this time. " So you mean not all of your kind had that kind of power?" He was still carrying the same dopey look on his face as he attempted to explain himself. " You see, as my species began to go extinct more and more of the elders began to.... discover hidden powers. My father was one of the oldest of our kind, far beyond the normal life span of the others. So, he then had more time than everyone else to master these new powers. But I have to admit one thing. He had been around so long he was starting to go crazy, you know...just a bit." He cringed at that last sentence. Rarity spoke. " Yes something was a bit off with that fellow." Everypony glared at Rarity. She shrugged and lift her head up. " It's true." Everypony continued their glares, everypony except Him. He just laugh's like he always does. This catches them all by surprise. " Does anything get to you?" Rainbow inquired. He just shrugged an continued floating around the room. " No not really, I mean she is right nothing about my father was, well right. He WAS genuinely insane. But he is still my father, and everything hes ever done was to protect me. So... the very least I owe him is to have him set free." The look of shook returned to their faces. "Wha-*CRASH*" The noise reverberated through the library startling everypony. Fluttershy hid behind Rarity, Rainbow took her attack position and Twilight sat there smiling knowing who had just arrived. She was here. About time.
