Chapter 5 death is a fact of life

Previous Chapter

In the after life. "Angelo." The voice said it sounded almost exactly like Morgan freeman.

"Yeah." Angelo said.

  "You sacrificed everything to save your kingdom you are permitted into heaven." The voice said.

  "I can't go they need back in ponyville." Angelo said.

"There is no way back." The voice said.

        At the funereal. "Angelo was like a brother to me I watched him grow up and surpass everyone's expectations of him. The last thing he told me was to take care of his cat. He was trying to assure me that he would be fine.  But I knew better.  If he was still here today he would tell us death is inevitable and it's pointless to avoid it and that we re acting like baby's mourning over the inevitable." Blackjack said finishing his eulogy. Next up was sweetiebelle then luna.

"Angelo was taken before his time. He reminded me of  what its like to have a family again." luna started to tear up. In the after life. "Come on let me go back." Angelo said.

"Why should I let you go back down to earth instead of some other soul." The voice said.

"Because the people Of equestria need me." Angelo said.

"Why." The voice said.

"Look at them its pathetic really every ones sad or upset." Angelo said.

"Fine but you will not look like yourself instead you will be disguised and will have a week to prove to your friends and family that you are Angelo." The voice said. There was a bright light and he was back on earth back to the funereal.

"That concludes what we have to say about Angelo." Luna said. It was Sweetiebelle who was up next.

"Before Angelo left I made him make a promise that he would return sadly he couldn't keep it. A few years ago the cutie mark crusaders broke up and I was left with no one.  Angelo even though he was always away he would make sure to send me a letter and see how I was doing. Angelo was the most thoughtful and selfless pony I ever had the pleasure of knowing and I'm proud that in the end I could still call him my friend." Sweetiebelle said.

  "Someone taken Angelo's body." A guard yelled.  There were gasped and whispers through out the audience.  Back to Angelo.  "Actually I don't look half bad." Angelo said while looking into a mirror. He was an earth pony with a silver coat red eyes and a black and green mane and tail.  With no cutie mark.

"Remember that they must figure it out for themselves." The voice echoed in his mind.

"Fine new name time Silver." Angelo said. He walked into ponyville everyone looked at him suspiciously.

  "Hey you." A guard said.

"Yeah." Silver said.

"Don't you know we just lost a member of the royal family why aren't you wearing black." The guard said.

"I uhh just moved here from over seas from europonyia." Silver said.

"Very we'll then you may go about your business." The guard said.  Silver walked to the funeral home and sat down everyone was looking at him.

"Whose that." Scootaloo whispered.

  "I don't know I've never seen him before." Applebloom whispered back.

"You think he knows something about Angelo's missing body." Scootaloo asked.

"Let's find out." Applebloom said.

"So who are you exactly." Scootaloo said. Crap think Angelo you need to convince them that you're you without sounding crazy.  "I'm a friend of Angelo's my name is silver." Angelo said.  Why did I say that oh well I'll convince them later.

"Is that so." Applebloom asked.

"Actually I have to get going." Angelo said as he got up and left.

"There's blackjack this should be easy." Silver said.  He walked over to blackjack who was drowning his sorrows in ice cream. "Hey nice day isn't it." Silver said.

"What the hell do you want." Blackjack said.

"What if I told you Angelo cheated death and was walking around ponyville as someone else." Silver said.

"That's impossible." Blackjack said.

  "Are you sure Blackjack after all you've been with almost his entire life like when he went on that secret political meeting in manehattan." Silver said.

"Angelo." Blackjack murmured. All silver did was shake his head.

"Don't tell anyone wouldn't want to ruin the surprise." Silver said before leaving Blackjack in disbelief.

  "Now to find sweetiebelle." Silver said to himself. Silver walked all through ponyville to find Applebloom Scootaloo and Sweetiebelle at the old club house.

"Hey." Silver said.

"What are you doing here." Scootaloo said.

"Just enjoying the view." Silver said. Think of something Angelo.

"How did you even find the clubhouse." Sweetiebelle said she had bags under her eyes and she looked like she had risen from the dead.  "I was just walking." Silver said.

"More importantly why are you here." Scootaloo said.

  "Oh I just came to tell you Angelo's not dead is all." Silver said with a relatively calm look on his face.

  "How he's dead." Applebloom said.

"There are ways to cheat death even in the afterlife." Silver said.  Sweetiebelle started to cry Scootaloo and Applebloom started trying comfort her.

  "How can you just come in here and say stuff like that." Applebloom said.

"And where would he be anyways." Scootaloo added.

"All I can say is you've been talking to him this whole time." Silver said before walking away.

  "Wait who are you." Scootaloo yelled.

  "You already know Scootaloo." Silver said.

"What's that suppose to mean." Applebloom said.  Sweetiebelle had stopped crying she realized what the others hadn't.  Alright next twilight then luna and celestia and that should be it.

"Your forgetting Rarity and Rainbowdash." The voice said inside Angelo's head.

"That just makes it harder.  Silver walked into the boutique where Rarity and all her friends were talking.

"Hello who is it." Rarity called out.

"Wait your the pony that showed up late for the funereal today." Rainbowdash said.

"First Angelo's not dead second shut up Rainbowdash and let me talk third there are several ways to cheat death even in the afterlife you just need to know how." Silver said.

"Angelo's dead you can't just go around and say he isn't." Twilight said.

"Twilight look in the mirror." Rarity said wide mouthed.

"What's going on in here." Applejack said as she walked in.

  "Angelo." Twilight said.

"Well I have a train to catch see you around." Silver said.  Upon arriving in canterlot.

  "Angelo I sense that diablos still alive." The voice said.

"What should I do." Silver said.

  "Wait for his return its the only way to end the doubts that your friends have about you." The voice said.

Far away. "I'm back but how." Diablo said.

Back in ponyville. "I don't like him I think he was messing with us." Sweetiebelle said.

"Yeah I'm with you." Scootaloo said.

"But why would he do that." Applebloom asked.

"Guess who." Diablo said as he grabbed them and crystallized them.

     In canterlot.  "Luna it's been three days please come out." Celestia said. "Luna open this door now." Celestia yelled.  "LUNA OPEN UP OR IM BREAKING DOWN THE DOOR." Celestia yelled no response.  Celestia's horn began to glow and with one magic blast the door flew open to reveal Luna trapped in a crystal.  "Luna." Celestia screamed.

"Hello." Diablo said as he imprisioned Celestia.

In ponyville.  "Sweetiebelle where are you." Rarity said.

"Right behind you." Diablo said as he did the same thing that he did to the cmc.

"Haha with Angelo gone no pony can stop me." Diablo yelled.  In cloudsdale.

"Hello Rainbowdash." Diablo said.

"Why you." Rainbowdash said as she tried to hit diablo but she was turned into a crystal before she could lay a hoof on him. Diablo did the same with the other ponies.

      In canterlot.  "Attention ponies of equestria your under new leadership." Diablo yelled from the balcony of the castle.

"Does anypony want to take me on any one." Diablo yelled as the door closed behind him.  Everypony was in a cage suspended in mid air.  The room was full of politicians and leaders.

"do any challenge me." Diablo said.

  "I do." A pony in full battle armor carrying a spear walked in front of every one.

  "I'll let you have first move." Diablo said.  The pony charged Diablo side stepped and cut his underbelly spelling his guts out.  "Any one else." Diablo said. Every one was quiet.

  "I do." A pony said wearing nothing and armed with only his bare hoofs.

"Are you kidding me how do you expect to beat me." Diablo said.

"You'll just have to find out." The pony said.

"First what's your name." Diablo said.

"Silver." The pony said.

"Well the lets see what you have." Diablo said. Silver just stood still looking at diablo.

"What are you not scared are you going to attack." Diablo said.  Silver just stood there.

"Why are you even here." Diablo said.

"Because ill die for my kingdom." Silver said.

"Funny those are the same words Angelo used when I killed him." Diablo said. Silver just stood there.

"Enough of this." Diablo said as he charged. Silver just stood there.

"Die." Diablo yelled as his wing came to contact with Silver but it didn't cut.

  "What is this." Diablo said as a look of fear overcame him as he started to back up.  Silver began to walk forward he started to change. His mane became white he had a cutie mark of a moon with the Milky Way streak through it his coat had become black.  He grew a horn and wings and his red eyes became blue.

"Angelo." Diablo said. Angelo's horn began to glow blue fire spewed out if his horn and began to swirl around diablo leaving him a pile of ash.  The cage fell to the ground.

  "Angelo is that really you." Luna said with tears in her eyes.

  "Yeah it's me mom." Angelo said. Everypony came and tackled Angelo.

"Hey." Angelo said.

"Don't ever do that again." Sweetiebelle said.

"Alright I won't." Angelo said.

Remember this is the one and only time you come back. The voice said.

"Angelo how are you even alive we all saw you dead." Twilight said.

"Like I said earlier you can cheat death even in the afterlife." Angelo said.

  "You mean you were the silver pony." Scootaloo said.

"Yes I was." Angelo said.

"How did you stop diablos blade from killing you." Celestia asked.

"I had a little help." Angelo said.

"Well we are all happy your back." Luna said as everypony got off of Angelo except for Sweetiebelle who proceeded to kiss Angelo.

"Now we know why Sweetiebelle was so upset." Rarity teased.

"Hm figures." Rainbowdash said.

"Looks like he finally got a girlfriend." Blackjack said.

"Alright you two break it up." Twilight said.  Sweetiebelle got off of Angelo as he got up.  A bright light appeared beside Angelo and with the awesome voice of Morgan freeman it spoke.

"Well done Angelo you so some promise as the future leader of equestria and you've shown that you were worthy for a second chance. As for you miss sweetiebelle I will grant the life of an alicorn after all you two get married in the future." The light said.  "Who are you." Sweetiebelle asked.

  "Why I'm the creator of everything a sort of god if you will." The creator said.

"What happens to diablo." Angelo asked.

  "He can never truly be destroyed as long as you live he will continue to exist." The creator said.

"Why." Luna asked.

"Because Angelo created diablo as a defense against celestia. Diablo was a freak accident like nightmare moon. Diablo will still survive as long as Angelo continues to exists because their minds are linked one cannot exist without the other." The creator said.

"So what happens now." Angelo asked.

"That's for you to decide. You could leave with me or stay here either way you'll end up happy in the end. Just one way is with your friends and family the other is in heaven." The creator said.

  "But I already know what you choose and another thing before I leave for miss sweetiebelle."

"Yes." Sweetiebelle said.

"Keep an eye on Angelo for me he was only aloud back this one time as for you I hope you enjoy the next couple of thousand years and on that note I say my goodbyes." The creator said before disappearing.

"So how about that second date." Angelo said.  And with that the story comes to an end.  So until next time remember life is a gift not to be wasted.
