People have asked, but not many know, the story behind the Pegasi who lives in the Everfree... now everyone will. This is the story of great heroics, the story of romance, and great perils....... wait, this doesn't have any of that in it? Oh... well then this is just a regular OC backstory for a very un-ordinary Pegasi, the one they call Dead Ink.... ME. I hope you all enjoy this: My mate Allie and I decided to write it together... you could say she's my co-author, as she is the one who pestered me to hand this out. So, enjoy.

Does contain light diapers, but no usage, as that's not what this story is about. Dead Ink's and Allie Astra's personalities are this way, so this is what we write.

Who is Dead Ink?

I sigh, trotting down the path. Lost in my own thoughts for the umpteenth time since my parents death, i hadn’t noticed Allie trotting up next to me.

“Hi, Inky. How are you today?” Allie says.

I flinch, coming out of my stupor. I look over at Allie. “Oh Hello Allie.” I say, with a smile on my face. Allie would always seem to make me smile. She was the only thing that ever made me smile.

“Um… am I still coming over tonight, or did you forget again?” Allie asks me in her typical unconfident tone.

“Oh…. yes… sorry Allie, I forgot. When did you want to come over?”

“How about… around sunset?” She asks.

“Sure. Do you want an escort through the Everfree?”

“Nah. I can make it; I’m not a filly anymore… and I’ve learned to be more careful since last time.” She says to me in a very matter-of-factually.

“I know you are Allie, in-fact it feels like just yesterday I was changing your diapers… oh wait.” I joke with her.

“Hey!... Inky!” She says in an objecting tone.

“I’m just asking because my uncle has been messing with the forest lately, and I want to make sure you come out in one piece.”

Allie tilts her head in curiosity. “What is Discord doing to the forest? I hope he’s not making more colors of poison jokes.”

“No, nothing like that. Celestia wants to see if Discord can tame chaos… since he is the god of Chaos and all. So far, the everfree has been fighting back.” I say, as I continue my trot into town. “Aren’t you heading back to Fluttershy’s?” I ask. “It is almost sunset.”

“Oh no! Fluttershy’s gonna be worried about me. I gotta go.” Allie leans over and kisses my cheek. “Bye, Inky.” And just like that, she spreads her wings and with a single graceful wingbeat, she flies up into the air and over the trees.

“I’ll wait for you outside the path to my cottage alright?” I yell as she begins flying off. Knowing her as she usually pays more attention to her flying, she probably hadn’t heard me. I smile “To be naive…” I drown, as my thoughts come back to me.

“You love that mare, don’t you?” My inner voice asks.

“I love her as more of a little sister than I do as a marefriend, Dead.” I say to it. Ever since I was reborn, I've had that little voice in the back of my head. Not that im insane, just powerful… and lonely.

I trot through town and get the supplies I need, finally heading towards the entrance to the path. I lived in a cottage just on the inside of the Everfree, I enjoyed the loneliness that being inside the Everfree gave me, and my only neighbor was Zecora, the zebra that live about a mile farther through the Everfree. I sit on my flank, and watch as the sun begins to set on the horizon.

After a while of waiting, I begin to hear a faint and growing whooshing. I look up to see Allie as she lands next to me. “You didn’t need to wait for me...You know, I think I’ve gotten faster? I might give Rainbow-Dash a run for her Bits now!” She says, fairly out of breath.

“I didnt want to find a 5 year old on my doorstep.” I laugh.

“Oh, ha ha!” Allie retorts sarcastically. “Anyway… shall we go?” She asks, sidling up to me.

“Alright, follow me and BE CAREFUL. I dont want another one of uncle Discord’s Poison Joke’s turning you into a baby, I’m already changing your diapers when you sleep over.” I tease, nudging her playfully.

“Shhh! Somepony might hear you!” Allie exclaims back, looking around for anypony that might have heard me, of which there was nopony.

“You’re paranoid, Alliecakes. Let daddy worry about the big colt stuff.” I tease as we trot into the forest on the path.

Remaining wordless, Allie just lays her head on my shoulder, blushing from my teasing, but smiling nonetheless; deep down, she actually enjoyed it.

“Does the widdle filly enjoy it when I tease her?” I ask, stepping over a root that has grown over the path.

She blushes brighter, almost to the point of glowing, as she hide her face in my mane.

“So, last time you were here, you were asking me a question, what was it again?”

“Oh, um… what was it… Oh, Yeah!” She exclaims. “I remember you told me about that voice in your head… the one you call Dead. Can you explain it again?” She asks.

“Explain Dead? What is there to explain? Other than he is the manifestation of my Chaos magic from Discord, which I can use in alliance with my Pegasi magic, to utilize it like a unicorn. And the fact that he is an embodiment of my chaos magic, means he is a part of me, but also a completely separate entity. Does that help?” I smile, knowing she is a smart mare.

“Hmmm… Chaos magic… being used like Unicorn magic?... That explains how you can change me so much faster than Fluttershy.” Allie says, blushing at her own words.

“Its a good thing, too.” I smile, slapping her flank lightly with my wing. “Otherwise you’d be exposed to the world MUCH longer.” Finally, after enough walking, we reach my cottage. “Oh look, we’re here.” I chuckle, opening my door, letting Allie through first. Just as she turns around to speak, i pull a pacifier out of my saddlebags, sticking it into her muzzle. “Shh, foals don’t speak like adults.”

Allie mumbles around the pacifier. “Awww! But Ingy--” Allie protests, before I interrupt her to correct her.

“No Inky; you call me Daddy, remember? Now, would you like to be diapered now, or after dinner?” I ask, pulling a brand new bag of diapers out from my saddlebags.

“Um… I dunnuh… daddy.” She says, blushing brightly once again. After being together for so long, she’s obviously used to this treatment from me, but she still treats it like it’s never happened before.

“Alright, then because you can’t decide, I’ll pick for you.” I say, smiling as I push her into the cottage and quickly lead her over to a changing mat, and lay her on her back. I pull a new diaper out, and begin diapering the mare. WIth a stretch of the tapes, the new diaper is on. Her tail sways back and forth from the outside of the diaper. With a loud crinkle, I help her up. “Awww, the widdle foal looks sooo cute!” I exclaim, poking her diaper with my wing.

Allie giggles in a very foalish manner, blushing the whole time, but settling into the role quickly once again. “Heeheehee… Good choish, daddy!” She says, giggling more as she waddles around, getting used to the bulky padding between her hind legs. “Okay… I’m all diapered now… Wha’s fuh din-din, daddy?”

“Well, first I have to make dinner, so the little foal gets to play.” I chuckle, leading allie towards a playpen in the corner. I push her in and close the playpen gate behind her, knowing full well she can get out. “You play nicely with your toys and daddy will go make some dinner.” As I walk away, my thoughts consist mostly of: “Im pretty sure this is the only mare that has ever made me smile… I think she enjoys those diapers of hers way too much.” I laugh at my own thoughts as I head into the kitchen to find something to make.

I trot back into the living room after finishing dinner to see Allie’s front hooves over the wall of the playpen, like she is waiting for me. I smile at her. “Is my little filly ready for some dinner?” She playfully nods and i open the gate letting her out. I stick a wing down her diaper. “Good my little filly is such a good girl for staying dry.” I exclaim.

Allie looks up at me and smiles past the pacifier. “I am a good fiwwy, aren’t I? … Is dinnuh weady yet, daddy?”

I lead her into the kitchen, and into a regular chair. On a plate in front of her is a simple daisy sandwich. “Im sorry its not a lot, but I totally forgot about tonight Alliecakes.” I say, nuzzling her gently.

Allie takes out her pacifier and says “It’s okay, daddy. It looks really good.”

“Just hurry up and eat dinner, It’s getting late, so I know one little filly who needs her sleep.” I say, watching her make a mess of herself.

After a few minutes, Allie finishes her sandwich, getting a fair portion of it on the outside, missing it’s mark entirely. “All done, daddy.” She says, then examines her coat. “...Oops… does this mean I get a bath before bed?”

“Sorry dear, I have a bath planned for you tomorrow morning.” I say, wiping the food off of her coat. “I have to show you off to the Princess tomorrow, Twilight was her name I think.… Fluttershy’s orders.” I tease.

“Awww!” She complains, then mutters quietly. “...but I like bath time.”

“I know you do princess. I promise to make tomorrow’s bathtime one to remember. Would my little filly like pajamas or do you want to sleep with daddy in just your diaper?”

“Um… Jammies! Wait… do I still get to sleep in your bed if I choose jammies?” She asks, her lip quivering as she looks at you with big, soft, pleading eyes.

“Of course, princess. Daddy wouldn’t be that mean.” I chuckle, using my chaos magic to lift her easily, carrying her into my bedroom. I focus carefully, and release a short burst of energy, as the energy subsides, the pajamas that were on the dresser in my room, are snugly fit around Allie, and she is laid down in my bed. “There. Feel comfy?”

“Mm-hmm… Oh! I forgot my pacifier!” Allie says, panicking.

“Oh no… we can’t forget that!” I exclaim. I close my eyes, as interrupting Allie as she is about to speak, her pacifier appears in her mouth.

“Mmmpf! … Shanks, daddy.” She says, snuggling up against your chest. “...Daddy?”

“Yes princess?” I ask, as i snuggle up next to her.

“Can you… teww me a stowy… da one about how Discowd is your uncle?”

“You want me to tell you again?” I ask

“Uh-huh.” Allie nods.

“Oh alright, but then you need to go to sleep.” I say, as I begin telling the tale.

When I was but a foal, no more than 2 or 3 days old, my heart had a huge problem. Because I was one of the first ponies to have something like this, doctors didn’t know what to do. According to Discord, I was dead for an entire hour. Now see, this was around the time that Discord was ruling equestria, long before the royal pony sisters took over, so a LOT of things changed. My parents, well they were two of the few ponies who actually worshipped Discord and his rule. As a lessing to their undying worship, they asked him to save me. He was amused by their prayers, as very few ponies actually worshipped him without him having to force them, so he agreed to what they asked. When he gave them a part of chaos magic, it was too much power for them. The magic wove through their body, into mine. Somehow, it drove them mentally insane, and the stress broke their body down, stopping their hearts, and killing them. That was the point I don't remember, as I was out cold after the Chaos magic imbued itself into me. You see, they worshipped chaos, there was no order in their bodies. When Chaos is added to Chaos, it sets the balance off. I myself, only being two days old, was not brainwashed into worshipping chaos, I was still order. The chaos magic flowed into me, giving me life. Discord gave my parents a good funeral, then he put me to sleep. The last thing I remember, was him telling me he would wake me up soon. Almost 1000 years passed, and when I broke free of my slumber, I was as you see now, just about 10 years younger. I woke up here in this cottage. At the time I had no idea discord was still… stoned is it? Well, the Chaos magic inside of me, Dead, the one that allows me to fuse it with my pegasi magic, giving me the abilities of unicorns, Its like a little Discord in my mind. He was the one who taught me how to use my powers, and I lived secluded, with only Dead to talk to. Until finally I met you. Then just 2 years or so ago, when Discord broke free, he paid me a visit. He’s the only family I have, except you, which is How Little Allie Astra was born every time you come over…. I get to have a family.”

I sigh, my story finished. I look over at Allie, and am greeted with a snoring adult mare.

“Good Night, Alliecakes.”
