CHAPTER ONE: Reunion
Luna held the corpse of Dorchester in her arms. sobbing over his lifeless body. Yet something saved him that day...
“L....Luna...” I whispered, I began to regain feeling in my body, yet I still couldn't move.
“Ryan... please come back!” Luna cried. She couldn't hear me over the raging whirlpool and her sobs.
“Luna...” I spoke a little louder this time. Luna raised her head and looked at me, my eyes had opened a little. Yet I could see her, and she could see me. I began to feel myself slip away, as if she was letting go of me. I became engulfed in a tomb of bright swirling gray lights, there was a flash, and I was my old alicorn form once again. Luna looked up in delight. I felt new and refreshed, I saw Lance, Twilight, Starch, even Mr. Bleak looking up at me in happiness. I stood on the ground as though nothing had happened. I took a glance at my flank and noticed that my cutiemark had appeared! It was Ying and Yang.
Baby we're back!!
I thought we're going to be gone forever!
I'm glad we're back...
Luna ran over to me and wrapped her hooves around my neck, I put one hoof around her. I looked to see Frederic smiling. I grinned at him. Lace Danneggiato was dead, and I somehow survived the encounter! I felt alive! When we released, Pinkie Pie began to bounce around, saying how she was going to throw the biggest party in all of Equestrian history. Celestia stayed back and was talking to Mr. Bleak.
More like whispering if you ask me.
No longer will the Lunar Events continue, I was sure about that. I walked over to The Great Whirlpool and looked down were Lace Danneggiato had fallen. I felt glad that it was all over with. Yet I heard something before I died...
“You're alicorn form is that of his power...”
Does that mean I still have some of Lace Danneggiato inside me? It didn't matter anymore. He was dead, and Equestria was safe.
Two Weeks Later...
I stood by the refreshment table, taking a sip of punch. I looked over to see the royal family, and Lance's family all chatting. I was alone, but not really.
Quite the party Pinkie got going on here huh?
Yeah, pretty impressive... how did she know about the Team Fortress 2 Theme?
She can break the fourth freaking wall Reason, I'm not too surprised. If you ask me.
I think I'll be changing your names, for the last time of course. Truth, you're now Xax, Reason, you're Xas .
Xaxas? They both spoke at the same time.
Yup... I walked over to one of the couches and sat down, banging my head slightly to the sound of the music. I enjoyed it, a lot. I saw Spark, Fawn, Kara, Nova, and Star Chaser approach me. All with big smiles on their faces.
“What are you all up to?” I asked with a laugh. Before anything else happened, I was hit in the face with pie. I heard gasps and everyone turned around to look at me. I heard one pony laughing, I wasn't too surprised.
“I got you good~!” Greg laughed, I closed my eyes and grinned. I cleaned all the pie on my face, completely leaving it clean. I glared over at Greg.
“Hoh Shit...” He bolted back as I threw pie debris behind Greg, I smiled and leaned my ear forward.
“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!!!” I heard Greg howl in the distance.
“What did you do?” Spark asked.
“Something called... freezing top.” I laughed to myself. I had made all the pie debris ice cold, but they still looked normal. I loved that spell, thanks Annabel. The group turned around and began to chat, I looked over to my side to see Rarity and Peter approach me, both smiling.
“Well, we saw what happened, and we're both very happy you made it.” Rarity said.
“You did destroy the greatest threat to Equestria, you do realize that right? Why aren't you partying?” Peter asked.
“You try giving death the finger, then you won't be so... up for it.” I responded. As happy as I was, that experience gave me quite the shock. A fancy looking suit came floating in front of my eyes.
“No way, you didn't have to...” I said, taking the suit.
“Might as well, it was nothing!” Rarity said excitingly.
“I love it!” I ran to get some privacy, I heard Greg moaning as I put on the dress suit. I checked myself in the mirror, I looked great. I came strutting out of the changing room.
LIKE
A
BOSS
A slow song had begun to play, I watched as all the guests began to pair up. Frederic with Luna, Lance with Twilight, Peter with Rarity. I watched, yet couldn't help feeling a bit sad. I didn't have anyone to dance with, but it was fine.
More sugar for us!!
I approve of this!
Settle down you two, I'm not hungry or need a sugar rush.
Xax and Xas both groaned. I smiled, I thought it was funny. Don't judge me. I felt something tap my back, and I saw one of the most beautiful mares I have ever seen.
Holy shit...
I'd turn lesbian for this chick!
Oh yeah... forgot you were a girl...
Both of you, shut up!
“Uhh... hi... are you... Dorchester...?” She said shyly. I was great with getting people to know me, this shouldn't be hard. Her coat was blue, much like Lyra's while her mane was a light silver, it fell over to the side a bit, while her tail was long and wrapped up like Applejack's at the bottom. Her silver eyes pierced me, she wore a dark blue gown. I was blown away by her appearance.
“Yeah, you ne- need something?” I stammered, still gawking.
“My name is Silvermoon.”
That sounded a lot like a name a human would use...
“I was a human back on Earth.”
Bingo
“I knew you're a human to... your real name is Ryan.” Silvermoon looked up at me, her horn looked like Twilight's.
“Yeah, how did you know?” I asked. How did she know so much about me?
“I've just heard about you, you defeating Lace Danneggiato and all... I thought that was pretty cool. Don't worry, I'm not one of those uptight highclass Canterlot ponies.”
A Pegasister... nice!
“Really now? I had no idea that his defeat was that popular.”
“Oh it's all over the news! Every pony in Equestria knows how you stared death right into the eye and returned in one piece!” Silvermoon began to smile at me. I felt something I hadn't felt in a long time.
“I had no idea I was that popular.” I said, rubbing the back of my neck with my hoof.
“I just thought I'd say hi and all. Thanks for talking to me! It means a lot!” Silvermoon spoke awkwardly. She turned around.
Don't just stand there! That's one hottie you won't ever encounter again in a lifetime! She SOOO digs you! Make your move damn it!
As much as I hate to agree with you Xax at this moment, I will agree. Talk to her!
“Hey! Wait!” I called out to Silvermoon. She turned her head and faced me with those large silver eyes.
“How about you meet me... outside the local resturant, the one near the castle.” I said, smiling weakly. I wasn't good at this...
“But only the highest class ponies get inside that place!” Silvermoon called out.
“I think the savior of Equestria is a bit more then a high class.” I said grinning. Silvermoon's face turned as red as an apple.
“What time?” She asked me.
“Tomorrow, at a quarter to five!” I responded. She nodded her head and set off. I turned around.
“Yes!”
“Nice one big fella,” Lance had come over, patting me on the back. Twilight followed him with Spark, Kara, and Fawn. Lance looked over at Xas and Xax, both doing some sort of victory dance.
“Never mind them.” I said chuckling.
“Oh I remember when Lance took me out on our first date.” Twilight swooned, kissing Lance on the cheek.
“Ha ha, yeah.” He responded. He whispered in my ear.
“If you need any help, just ask me.” I shrugged him off.
“I'll be fine, besides, she seems to like me.” I said. I looked at Fawn and Spark, both giggling like little school children. Kara's wing was still bandaged, she stood on Lance's back.
“Ryan's got a girlfriend! Ryan's got a girlfriend!” Spark and Fawn began to jump around. I stepped back in shock, my face flushed red.
“Don't you dare start yelling that! Especially in public like this!” Twilight snapped, she scooped up her children with her hooves, covering their mouths.
“It won't happen again! I promise!” Twilight said. I waved my hoof.
“No problem, kids will be kids.” All three of us laughed while Fawn and Spark struggled and squirmed to get out of their mothers grasp.

I hope you enjoyed it so far, I've been working on this chapter a lot lately. I won't give any specific dates when each chapter comes out, it could be a day or more before chapter two comes out. If you see any grammar errors, or any error at all, makes sure to let me know what it is and where so I can fix it ASAP.
Once again, I hope you enjoyed and look forward to chapter two!
I'm not much of a “romantic lunch” writer, but I'll do the best I can.
CHAPTER TWO: Silvermoon
I stared down at the piece of paper given to me by one of the royal guards. The king of Equestria was in town and he wished to speak to me.
You're gonna have to hurry when this “meeting” is over. Remember, you've got your date with Silvermoon after.
It's NOT a date! It's just a friendly get together.
Whatever Romeo,
I sighed and put on my dress suit and flew to the throne room. Inside I saw one of the biggest alicorn's I had ever seen. Dark blue like Luna, but with firey eyes like Celestia's cutie mark. A golden mane swirled around him, incasing the rest of his body in the force. Unable to see what the rest of him looked like, he had a large broad face. I bowed before the king.
“Rise.” The king said. His low voice boomed and echoed around the halls of the castle. I stood up.
“You have truly defeated what me and my family could not, a force that has held his grasp over Equestria for far too long. You defeated him, for good. I am at the least impressed. I cannot express my undying gratitude for your deeds to this world. For that, all of Equestria thanks you. Do not take this honor for granite, as I am aware your troubled past has haunted you. But no longer will it come to extreme measures as these.”
I still stood, The king said he was very happy that I had defeated Lace Danneggiato, yet the only thing moving was his mouth.
“Gifts cannot express the deed you have blessed upon us, I am serious when I say, Thank you Dorchester for saving our world.” The king stopped talking, silence filled the room.
Hey, say something!
“I... uh... thank you for that speech your highness, it truly means a lot.” As I said that, a small smile form on the kings face as he nodded approvingly.
“I wasn't really aware of how nervous I would be... ha ha...” I laughed quietly, shuffling my hooves in front of me. I looked back up at the king as he stood on the throne.
“I can understand that you are in a rush to meet with somepony. I will not keep her waiting.” The kings horn began to glow and I was gone in less then half a second. When I appeared, I was right in front of Silvermoon, she was just arriving at The Castle of Canterlot. It was a massive resturant, and ponies gawked at me. I felt like Harry freaking Potter, yet not hated by some blond haired show off who's last name makes me think of a mouthy six year old. I held the door open for Silver Moon with my wing, she blushed and smiled as I let her in. When we entered, I had put on a nervous smile as ponies all around looked at me. I heard whispers, some of them I caught.
“Is that...?”
“It is!”
“Who's that mare?”
“It's Dorchester! The vanquisher of Lace Danneggiato!”
A waiter came by and bowed to me, I nodded at him.
“Look, I just want a regular day okay?” I asked with a smile.
“Of course.” The waiter pony said. He brought us to a large table and levitated us some menu's.
“So... how're you doing?” I asked, glancing from my menu to Silvermoon.
“I'm doing pretty well.”
“That's good.” I said, smiling at her. She looked at me and smiled, I guess she was just as nervous as I was.
“How are you doing?” Silver Moon asked.
“I'm fine, thanks for asking.” I responded. The waiter came over, I nearly choked when I saw it was Lance.
“Hey Dorchester! Didn't know you were coming here! Hiya Silvermoon!”
“Hey Lance.” Silvermoon said with a smile.
“So, what can I get you two today?” Lance said, flipping his notebook ready to take our order.
“I'll just have the standard hay salad sandwich.” I said, I nodded over to Silvermoon who ordered the same.
“What can I get you two to drink?” Lance asked, jotting down our orders.
I put my hoof out to Silvermoon to let her go first.
“Just some water.” Silvermoon said.
“And for you?” Lance said, looking in my direction.
“Same here.” I responded.
“Okay, the meals on me.” Lance said.
“That's awesome!” Silvermoon squeed.
Holy shit...
Wow... didn't know it could get any cuter then Fluttershy's, guess like she's got some competition.
Lance left the table and brought our food back in minutes, as much as I wanted to gobble down the entire thing, I wasn't going to act like a slob.
“Like it?” I asked Silvermoon when I had gulped the rest of my food.
“It was awesome! I really like hanging out with you Dorchester, we should get together... some time soon...” Silvermoon's shy side began to creep back in and she turned away a little when she realized her face had turned red. I put my hoof around her back.
“Don't worry about it, I like hanging out with you to. Same time tomorrow? I'll pay.” I said.
“Oh... okay. Sounds good.” Silvermoon said smiling, she put her hooves around me in a hug. I hugged her back. I took her home on my back, I was a bit larger then her, so it wasn't too hard. I dropped her down by her house.
“You live alone?” I asked, looking to see a smaller house at the edge of the Ever Free Forest and Canterlot.
“Yeah, it gets boring around here sometimes, but I enjoy the peace and quiet.”
Silvermoon pushed the door open and took one last glance at me. I winked and she waved her hoof back at me, she closed the door behind her, I took off and fired a massive blast of fireworks out into the air with my magic.
“Same time tomorrow!” I said to myself as I flew to my house.
I had a lot of fun writing this chapter, I'm really growing to like Silvermoon and I hope you will to. NO, she does NOT like Dorchester just because he is famous.
CHAPTER THREE: Bonding
2 Months After Chapter Two...
Me and Silvermoon had been going out for a long time now, some would say she was my marefriend, but I try to deny those accusations. For the moment, now I was stuck trying to decide if I should ask her or not... The Grand Galloping Gala is coming up, and I really want to take her. Alright, I'll do it.
I sped towards Silvermoon's home. I knocked on the door, it opened slowly to reveal Silvermoon, she smiled and welcomed me inside when she saw me.
“How are you doing today?” Was her usual greeting to me.
“Just fine, I want to ask you something.” I said nervously. Silvermoon looked at me with a confused face, I laid down on the couch, she sat next to me.
“I want to know...” I took a deep breath.
“If you would go to The Grand Galloping Gala next month?” I looked at Silvermoon's eyes, she looked at me surprisingly. She jumped on me and hugged me.
“Of course! I would love to!” She squealed.
“Wait, I'm not done yet.” I said, she lifted herself off of me.
“Would you go to The Grand Galloping Gala with me... as my marefriend?” I smiled nervously, waiting for her response. Silvermoon crept closer to me and kissed me on the lips, what was a few seconds, which felt like hours, she seperated her mouth from mine.
“Does that answer your question?” Silvermoon asked, her cheeks red. My face felt hot. I chuckled nervously.
“Uh... yeah!” I said. I swear my face would have ripped if I smiled anymore. Silvermoon jumped on me and laid her head on my chest and closed her eyes. I began to stroke her mane with my hoof while she... purred...? I don't know, but I thought it was cute. I laid my head back on the couch and closed my eyes, I breathed deeply in and out. I had finally gotten the question answered, I was happy.
I stayed the rest of the night at Silvermoon's house, when I awoke, I was still on the couch while her head rested on my chest. I smiled at her and kissed her head. I wanted to get up to stretch, so I slowly began to remove myself from under her. I heard Silvermoon moan and pad at me. She was like a little filly, sleeping on her fathers chest. I sighed quietly and let her stay until she began to open her eyes. When she did, Silvermoon opened them to see my gaze on hers. She smiled as she lifted herself off of my chest and sat next to me.
“I see you slept well,” I said, still looking at Silvermoon.
“Yeah, I really enjoyed last night.” Silvermoon blushed as I kissed her on the cheek. We got off the couch and I spread my wings, man that felt good.
Someone's getting laid sooner or later, and it's going to be US!
Oh hush Xax! You know nothing about relashionships!
You do realize we're one pony right? So in a sense-
I get it, I get it!
Two Weeks Later...
I had just finished making me and Silvermoon breakfast when we heard a knock on the door. I opened to see Lance and Twilight.
“Hey Dorchester, we couldn't find you at your house so we-” Twilight began, but she noticed me with my wing over Silvermoon's back, slowly stroking up and down.
“Oh wow! I had no idea! Yet I knew the day would someday arrive! Oh you two are going to make the cutest couple ever! I can't wait until-” Lance cut her off by blocking her mouth with his wing. Me and Silvermoon laughed as Twilight gave Lance a nasty look.
“So, finally the day has arrived. You do realize what this means?” Lance pointed his head towards Canterlot Castle. Oh yeah...
“They've passed, I have no need to feel any harsh feelings towards Luna.” I said. Silvermoon looked at me confusingly.
“I'll explain later.” I said, she nodded.
“Well, our breakfast is getting cold. We'll meet up with you two later okay?” Silvermoon asked.
“Oh sure!” Twilight said excitingly. I closed the door after saying goodbye and we went on to eat our breakfast together. After we finished, I washed the dishes while Silvermoon began to... pack her things? I walked over to her.
“What'chya doin'?” I asked.
“Packing my things,” Silvermoon said.
“What for?” I asked.
“To live with you of course! Don't you remember?” Silvermoon responded. Now I remember! We agreed to live with each other after a few weeks.
“Oh yeah, how silly of me.” I said, facehoofing myself.
Silvermoon giggled and finished packing the essentials. When she finished, I levitated her bags, and she climbed on my back and I flew off to my- our, new home.
CHAPTER FOUR: Settling In
I helped Silvermoon unpack her bags as we went through each room in our house. She gawked at the décor, I always thought it was normal décor, must be a completely new world to her. After we finished packing, I head over to the main bedroom and laid down, I was exhausted. I heard the door open and saw Silvermoon walk in panting.
“You tired to?” I asked, turning my head over to her. She looked back at me with those big silver eyes.
Daayum!
“Yeah... I didn't know your house was so big!” Silvermoon put her hooves up at the ceiling.
“What now?” I asked.
“I have no idea... I've already been around Canterlot hundreds of times, along with you showing me every inch of the house.” Silvermoon punched me on the shoulder playfully.
I looked around the room. Wondering what to do...
“I guess we could go and say hi to Lance and Twilight... we did say we where going to talk to them soon.”
Silvermoon got up. “That sounds like a great idea! But first, let's take a few hours off.” Silvermoon slidded towards me and put her hoof on my chest and closed her eyes. I breathed deeply, relaxing myself. This was the first real rest I've had in a long time, when I thought about it a little more.
Later...
I knocked on the door with my hoof, the door swung open. I saw Lance again.
Quick Authors Note: This follows Living The Dream, so Lance is a human.
“Hey, Dorchester, Silvermoon, come on it!” He greeted me inside. I saw Kara and Spark playing in the center of the large room with Twilight supervising them.
“Don't be too rough on her Spark! Remember her wing! Oh hi Dorchester!” Twilight greeted me with a quick hug. She greeted Silvermoon as well and guided us to the living room.
“So, how are you liking Dorchester's house?” Lance said, leaning back on his chair.
“It's really big, took us awhile to put everything I wanted inside.” Silvermoon said, I had my wing around her neck, like a boy with his arm around his girl.
Heh... sex jokes...
Oh quiet you!
“Well, now that's been established, I got a letter requesting my presence with the king.” Lance said, bringing forth a letter in his hands.
“Cool, I had a quick meeting with the king awhile ago.” I said, remembering my short conference with him.
“Did you catch his name?” Twilight asked.
“No, not yet at least.” I responded. Silvermoon had cuddled against me, pressing herself against my chest. I began to feel a wingboner coming on...
Dorchester and Silvermoon sittin' in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G!
You are so immature...
Don't you mean we are so immature?
I hate you...
Problem?
Lance folded up the letter and looked at Twilight.
“Mind teleporting me over to the palace Twi?” Lance asked. I coughed.
“Hmm?” Lance said, glancing over at me.
“I want to join you, of course with Silvermoon.” I said, glancing down at Silvermoon who was looking at me with big silver eyes, full of excitement.
“Well... okay.” Twilight said, her horn began to glow and we were engulfed in a flash of light. What I saw was the usual throne room, but with the king incased in his swirling magic.
“I see you have brought friends, Lance Greenfield.” The king said. All three of us bowed at the same time.
“Rise my friends.” The king ordered, his booming voice echoed across the nearby halls.
“I ask, why have you summoned me here?” Lance said.
“Because I have felt something, something that might put us in a small amount of trouble. Dorchester, I want Silvermoon to stay by your side every night. I expect the same from you Lance, stay by your family when my daughter lowers the sun, and my other daughter rises the great moon.”
The king paused for a second, deep in thought.
“Lance, Silvermoon, you must go. I want to talk to Dorchester, alone!” The King barked, all the guards walked out calmly.
“I'll wait for you at the house.” Silvermoon said, she walked out with Lance to the outside.
Once everybody was gone, I looked at The King.
“Why did you request that I stay?” I asked. Suddenly, the king's swirling encasing vanished to reveal the rest of his body. His cutie mark was that of both the sun and the moon, his large muscular body was revealed, covered in scars and scratches that he had gained over his life since the beginning.
“Come with me.” The king said, his horn glowed and we were transported to a long, dark hallway. Filled with some sort of signs.
“Follow.” The king said calmly. I followed him in silence. He stopped at a drawing of a large serpent like creature, rising from some type of whirpool. In front of him was a cliff with some type of ruins behind him, a lone black figure stood before it, with many others behind him. I recognized it, that was the day I died and returned!
“The prophecy fortold of this day, when he would rise and bring destruction upon the world I worked so tirelessly to create...”
The king paused again.
“Lace Danneggiato would rise, and a lone soul who's past was filled with recent events that scared him, would face up and destroy the beast... killing himself in the process. You, Dorchester, defied that very law that was passed down to you. Which means that...”
He stopped again, and stared at the drawing of Lace Danneggiato.
“He is not truly defeated.”
I stepped back a few feet. Lace Danneggiato wasn't truly defeated... but how?!
“The one who defeated him, must follow his path and die as well. I fear because of that moment... when you rose from death's grasp itself... something changed that day, Lace sensed it as well. Which means... you only delayed his return.”
I took a few steps forward, recovering from that shock.
“What... what are you saying?” I asked.
“In order for the prophecy to be completed, you must travel back in time, and stop whatever changed your fate.”
That made me feel better...
“So... either way I was supposed to die?” I asked.
“Yes.” The king answered. He stopped staring at the picture and looked back at me.
“What will you do?” He asked.
“But... Silvermoon...” I gasped.
“I understand... sacrifices must be made. But I can give you time... until Lace Danneggiato truly returns... you can stay in the present time and live with your Silvermoon. But be warned, do not grow too attached to her.”
What he said reminded me and My Little Dashie. Damn that fanfic made me cry so hard.
“Or else it will be harder to let go...” We both said in unison.
“I will stay. I will stay until his true return, and then I will stop myself from being revived... if it is said to be...” I looked down, I couldn't believe it! I should have died! But I didn't! This sucks!
“How do you think it happened?” I asked, lifting my head.
“I'm not sure... I'm worried that it might be something important... at least that's what I think.” The king said. He sighed.
“I forget... what is your name again?” I asked. I knew I had heard it before...
“My name... my name is Horus.” The king said.
“I think we should depart... your time is limited.” Horus said, he transported me back to my house. Great, now I would have to live with this weird feeling that I was supposed to let myself die. Just great...
CHAPTER FOUR: The Prophecy
I helped Silvermoon unpack her bags as we went through each room in our house. She gawked at the décor, I always thought it was normal décor, must be a completely new world to her. After we finished packing, I head over to the main bedroom and laid down, I was exhausted. I heard the door open and saw Silvermoon walk in panting.

“Hey, Dorchester, Silvermoon, come on it!” He greeted me inside. I saw Kara and Spark playing in the center of the large room with Twilight supervising them.
“Don't be too rough on her Spark! Remember her wing! Oh hi Dorchester!” Twilight greeted me with a quick hug. She greeted Silvermoon as well and guided us to the living room.
“So, how are you liking Dorchester's house?” Lance said, leaning back on his chair.
“It's really big, took us awhile to put everything I wanted inside.” Silvermoon said, I had my wing around her neck, like a boy with his arm around his girl.

“I'll wait for you at the house.” Silvermoon said, she walked out with Lance to the outside.
Once everybody was gone, I looked at The King.
“Why did you request that I stay? And why did you just make them leave after such short notice?” I asked. Suddenly, the king's swirling encasing vanished to reveal the rest of his body. His cutie mark was that of both the sun and the moon, his large muscular body was revealed, covered in scars and scratches that he had gained over his life since the beginning.
“Come with me.” The king said, his horn glowed and we were transported to a long, dark hallway. Filled with some sort of signs.

“Lace Danneggiato would rise, and a lone soul who's past was filled with recent events that corrupted him, would face up and destroy the beast... killing himself in the process. You, Dorchester, defied that very law that was passed down to you. Which means that...”
He stopped again, and stared at the drawing of Lace Danneggiato.
“He is not truly defeated.”
I stepped back a few feet. Lace Danneggiato wasn't truly defeated... but how?!
“The one who defeated him, must follow his path and die as well. I fear because of that moment... when you rose from death's grasp itself... something changed that day, Lace sensed it as well. Which means... you only delayed his return.”
I took a few steps forward, recovering from that shock.
“What... what are you saying?” I asked.
“In order for the prophecy to be completed, you must travel back in time, and stop whatever changed your fate.”
That made me feel better...
“So... either way I was supposed to die?” I asked.
“Yes.” The king answered. He stopped staring at the picture and looked back at me.
“What will you do?” He asked.
“But... Silvermoon...” I gasped.
“I understand... sacrifices must be made. But I can give you time... until Lace Danneggiato truly returns... you can stay in the present time and live with your Silvermoon. But be warned, do not grow too attached to her.”
What he said reminded me and My Little Dashie. Damn that fanfic made me cry so hard.
“Or else it will be harder to let go...” We both said in unison.
“I will stay. I will stay until his true return, and then I will stop myself from being revived... if it is said to be...” I looked down, I couldn't believe it! I should have died! But I didn't! This sucks!
“How do you think it happened?” I asked, lifting my head.
“I'm not sure... I'm worried that it might be something important... at least that's what I think.” The king said. He sighed.
“I forget... what is your name again?” I asked. I knew I had heard it before...
“My name... my name is Horus.” The king said.
“I think we should depart... your time is limited.” Horus said, he transported me back to my house. Great, now I would have to live with this weird feeling that I was supposed to die. Just great...
CHAPTER FIVE: The Grand Galloping Gala
I walked into the throne room with Silvermoon by my side. I had my dress suit that Rarity and Peter had given me, while Silvermoon wore the gown I had first met her in. We walked down the carpet to be greeted by Princess Celestia.
“Ryan, Silvermoon.” Princess Celestia said with a nod.
“It's good to see you again.” I said, I held out my hoof and Celestia shook it. We left Princess Celestia and went into the main ballroom. I instantly saw Peter and Lance chatting, Twilight hung out with Applejack and Rarity. I made my way down the aisle with Silvermoon at my side. We reached one of the tables, I saw King Horus walking outside, near the garden.
“Excuse me a minute... I need to talk to his royal highness.” I said, kissing Silvermoon on the lips deeply. I made my way to the Royal Garden, where I saw King Horus standing, looking at the moon.
“King Horus?” I said. He turned and faced me.
“Ah, Dorchester, I guess I should have expected this arrival.” He said.
“Why are you out here? If it's too personal, I'll understand.” I said.
“It's just... you see those stars up in the sky?” He said, pointing at a group of stars at the right of the moon.
“Yeah,” I responded.
“Look closer at them... you'll see... an image.”
I did see something, it looked like a mare. Could that be...?
“Oh... I'm sorry...” I said.
“Queen Isiset... the queen...” King Horus said.
“She died after our fight against Lace Danneggiato... I tried everything to save here, but it was no use.” He said, tears had sprung from his eyes. I heard hoof steps behind, I saw Princess Luna.
“Hey,” She said, I smiled at her. Luna walked over to her father and put her hoof on his back.
“I never knew.” I said. I felt terrible for asking such a personal question.
“It's fine Dorchester... it's fine. I know she watches over Equestria, over us. I just never thought our paths would split like this.” King Horus choked.
“Ryan... I think it's best if we both leave him be.” Luna said, I nodded and we headed out of the garden and back into the ballroom. I sat next to Silvermoon as we watched the band play.
“What did The King say?” Silvermoon asked me.
“It's... complicated.” I replied, when the band finished their first song, I saw Greg and Pinkie sneak backstage, this was going to be good.
Celestia did always say every Gala was “ruined” by somepony or something. I guess Greg's going for a streak.
I was right, music began to blast from out of nowhere. Catgroove by Parov Stealer. Of course. I smiled as Greg and Pinkie snuck out of the way as the other high class ponies began to look around and complain about the “unformal” music. The entire gang, Lance, David, Peter, Greg, even the Mane Six went and began to dance with their stallionfriends. I held out my hoof to Silvermoon, who took mine in hers and we made our way to the dance floor with the others. Instead of the formal “dance” we just rocked out as the awesome party music blasted around the castle walls. Princess Celestia came in with Luna and Frederic.
“What the hell is going on-? Oh. Not too surprised.” Frederic said with a grin as he saw all of us dancing.
“Like I always said, something goes wrong, but it's usually for the better.” Celestia said, walking towards the large group of dancing ponies. I danced with Silvermoon, doing sort of a swing/tango dance. I spun her around and let her hang onto my arm as she swung out and laughed with joy, I was having a great time. Yet I couldn't help wonder, where was King Horus in all of this? Must have went off somewhere else, I could understand.
“Alright all you party ponies, I think we'll have to cut it short today.” Princess Celestia said with a laugh after watching us for a few minutes.
“C'mon Tia, I haven't been able to party like this in a long time!” Luna said as she grabbed Frederic and dragged him onto the dance floor. She really did have Frederic on a leash! Ha ha!
Party rockin' in the house tonight!
Wrong song genius!
Oh shut up!
...
El problemo?
We continued to dance for hours on end until I felt like I was going to collapse. I went over to the tables and slumped down on a chair. Damn, I was tired.
“That was... awesome!” Silvermoon gasped between large breaths. I nodded, I was completely out of breath, and gasping for more.
“I think that's enough for today...” I said.
“Yeah... but lets just hang out for now.” Silvermoon said.
“No problem, I don't mind.” I responded, watching Princess Celestia tap her foot to the rhythm. If I could just get her to dance... my life would be complete. I got up and began to approach Princess Celestia.
“Hey, why don't you go out and join them? I would, but I'm too exhausted.”
Princess Celestia looked at me.
“I'm not that type of princess.” She said.
“Come on, it'll be fun!” Silvermoon said, she was approaching me from behind.
“If you don't go, I'll have to make you...” I taunted. Princess Celestia put her face up to mine and grinned.
“Try me... Oof!” Celestia gasped as she was suddenly pushed forward onto the dance floor from behind by Silvermoon.
“Gotcha!” Silvermoon winked at me.
“Fine... fine...” Princess Celestia began to bang her head, in just a few moments, she was rocking out more then I had before.
“It's official, my life is complete.” I said, leaning back onto the wall. The rest of the night went down smoothly. I danced with Silvermoon again, and by that time I was out of it. Next I remember drinking large amounts of punch. I woke up in my bed, did I have a hangover? Damn it Greg!
“Ugh...” I groaned, rubbing my forehead.
“What happened?”
“Greg gave you something funky, I rejected it, I know him better then you think. You began to drink, a lot. You passed out soon after.” Silvermoon giggled and stroked my mane with her hoof.
“Damn you Greg...” I moaned and put my head back against the pillow and closed my eyes.
“Oh I don't think we're done here.” Silvermoon said. I knew exactly where she was going with this, and I liked it. Yet I didn't feel up to it, as my head felt like it was going to explode.
“How about when I don't feel like my head is going to pop like an overfilled water balloon?” I asked. Silvermoon shoved a pillow into my face and laughed. I pushed it off.
“I said not right now!” I roared playfully.
“Then teach me a lesson I won't soon forget!” Silvermoon hopped off the bed and began to swagger around the room, sticking her tongue out.
“You're gonna regret that!” I said. I jumped at her, maybe we'll just wrestle a bit, but then I'm going to bed. I had a long, yet awesome, night that I wasn't going to ever forget.
WARNING: SEX SCENE
CHAPTER SEVEN: Day and Night
The day had finally arrived, the day I would forever hold the one I loved. My heart pounded as I waited for the music to begin to play, I looked over at Greg. I knew all about his little tricks he might play, if he tries anything, I let everypony know, including him, that he would be forced to leave. I jumped slightly as the music began to play. The Mane Six, and The Gang was there, along with some guards. Princess Celestia, of course, was the priest. I gulped as the doors opened and Silvermoon walked down the aisle. Guided by Princess Luna, Frederic as my Man of Honor, and Lance as my Best Man. Animals that belonged to Fluttershy sprayed flowers out as they made their way in front of Luna and Silvermoon. When Silvermoon came up to me, we looked into each others eyes. Then Princess Celestia began her speech.
I didn't really listen until I was called upon first to say “I do.”
“Do you, Dorchester, take Silvermoon to love and to hold, through sickness and health, wealthy and poor?” Princess Celestia looked at me.
“I do.” I said determingly.
“And do you, Silvermoon, take Dorchester to love and to hold, through sickness and health, wealthy and poor?” Celestia's gaze turned over to Silvermoon.
“I do.”
“If anypony has any reason to object to this, please stand and speak, or forever hold your peace.”
A few seconds passed. Thank God, until Princess Celestia said the final words that would bound me and Silvermoon together.
“You may now kiss the bride.”
I kissed Silvermoon, a bright light engulfed her as she turned into an alicorn.
Meanwhile...
King Horus looked over the ceremony, watching, studying, as the wedding took place. This wasn't supposed to happen! Dorchester will grow too attached to Silvermoon, and be forceful when the time comes to leave her. He sighed and began to make his way down to the wedding, he wanted to let Dorchester know the deal he made.
Back at The Wedding...
It wasn't too special, but I still enjoyed it. The wedding was a blast and everybody loved it, I went over to the buffet table and poured myself some punch. I felt a tap on my shoulder and I saw King Horus.
“Oh hey King Horus!” I greeted him with a smile, but then in quickly faded.
“I congratulate you, I know you two will be very happy together. But I see my second reason for showing up here has just been... discovered. I'm sorry if I bummed you out any.”
I avoided his gaze.
“It's fine, all that matters is today, I'll worry about tomorrow when it comes around.” I forced a smile.
“That's good, that is all.” King Horus just stopped there and vanished. When the smoke cleared I saw Silvermoon in her wedding gown approaching me with a big smile.
“Hey honey!” She greeted me with a quick kiss.
“Hey, how do you like the party?” I asked her as she wrapped her hooves around my waist.
“I'm loving it. Yet there's one thing missing...” Silvermoon blushed deeply and pressed herself against me. I felt my face go hot.
WINGBONER! Fuck!
Aaw man, you just HAD to ruin that dress shirt...
“Oh yeah...? And what's that?” I said with a deep voice.
“I think you know.” Silvermoon was now on completely on top of me.
She's dominating you! Don't let your guard down so easily!
I pushed myself forward, knocking her backwards a bit, she still had her grasp on me.
“Why not... stay up a little later tonight.”
I smiled slyly.
“Sounds good...”
Later That Evening...
I climbed into bed and relaxed, I was beat after all that. Greg somehow put the punch on fire, that's right, the punch caught fire due to Greg. He was then forced out of the building, singing about how he was going to “Put The Coconut in The Lime”. I think he snuck some of whatever he takes into the wedding, maybe too much. Anyhow, let me tell you this, summoning water from out of nowhere takes a lot out of you. I heard the covers rustle and I saw Silvermoon lay on top of me.
“You promised...” She taunted and put her mouth against mine. Our tongues wrestled each other, I eventually gave in and her tongue explored my mouth. I felt myself go erect as Silvermoon grinded herself up and down my body. I tore off my suit and her gown, we were completely exposed to each other. Silvermoon took herself off me.
“Your turn...”
“Feeling a little generous today aren't we?” I grinned and pinned her against the bed. I revealed my member and began to stroke Silvermoon's stomach with it, teasing her.
“Quit teasing me and just do it!” Silvermoon growled as she nibbled on my ear. I put my member inside her marehood, slowly, then thrusting as fast as I could into her. I suddenly stopped, and pulled out my member. Silvermoon took hold of it and pushed me back, now she was on top.
“Time to show you how a real mare does it!” Silvermoon blushed as she stuck my member into her mouth.
I LOVE THIS. SO MUCH.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY TO THIS!
Silvermoon got a little excited a little too fast, I was forced to pull myself away. She looked at me confused, I toppled on her, putting my member back into her marehood.
I can feel it!
THIS IS SO WEIRD...
“Dorchester... I'm gonna...” Silvermoon wasn't able to finish her sentence as my seed blasted into her.
This feels like I'm peeing after a few thousand years... I'M LOVING EVERY SECOND OF IT! DO IT AGAIN! DO IT AGAIN!
A little anxious aren't we today Xax?
Your a girl, you have no idea how long I've been waiting for this!
Tonight was the best night I've ever had. We separated from each other. I felt hot and panting.
“Good... job...” Silvermoon panted. I looked over and kissed her meaningfully on the lips.
“Tonight is ours, forever.” I said.
“I love you Dorchester.”
“I love you Silvermoon.
CHAPTER EIGHT: Rainbow Factory
I was standing in the throne room, King Horus, Princess Celestia, Luna, The Gang, and The Mane Six all had come together. I hid behind a wall, making sure they couldn't hear me.
“The wedding wasn't supposed to happen! Now he will only grow more attached to her every day. I fear that it may be too hard for him when the time comes. The very thing that revived him, would be his end.”
“I'm honestly happy for him, he loves her, and she loves him. She is innocent in all of this, but she's slowly getting more involved as time goes on.”
“Then what shall we do?”
“Just wait for the time to come, and pray that he will come peacefully.”
I woke up in my bed, that was a weird dream, it felt so real... but what did they mean that the wedding wasn't supposed to happen? I don't get it, but I got up and stretched, yawning. I saw Silvermoon, still asleep right next to me. I smiled at stroked her head, she smiled and opened her eyes at me.
“Good morning.” I said, forgetting all about the dream.
“Hey,” Silvermoon said, her eyes full of tired.
“We had a good time last night, didn't we?” I said.
“Yeah...” Silvermoon closed her eyes and went back to sleep. I got up and made myself some breakfast.
HAY BACONSTRIPS, HAY BACONSTRIPS, HAY BACONSTRIPS, HAY BACONSTRIPS.
Aack! Please! Not while I'm tired...
El Problemo?
Will you quit saying that!
I haven't said that in so long!
Please, both of you... SHUT UP! I'm tired.
I ate my breakfast, and went down to read a book that Twilight, of course, had given me as a wedding present. Parenting, how predictable. I was probably going to need to read it anyway. I read for a bit until Silvermoon walked into the room.
“Finally up huh sleepy head?” I cooed. Silvermoon picked up a pillow and playfully threw it at me.
“I have no idea how long I've been asleep, get outta the house!” Silvermoon joked at me. I got up, put the book away and kissed her.
“If you say your highness.” I bowed.
“I'm gonna get you for that!” Silvermoon hissed, punching me on the shoulder. I grinned as I made my way out, I needed to get out. I looked up and saw something up in the sky, it left a small trail of... rainbow behind it. I flew up, making sure not to be noticed.
It might be Rainbow Dash, we haven't talked to her in a bit.
She looks like she's worried. Just follow her.
It could be personal...
We could still help. We're trustworthy!
You THINK we're trustworthy.
I followed RD as she flew higher and higher into the air. We breached the clouds, I saw something gray, it looked odd. I made sure to stay my distance, when I felt like I had gotten close enough, I stopped and watched as Rainbow Dash entered a large gray... building?
I don't like this... Let's keep going!
When I knew Rainbow Dash was inside, I made my way and opened the doors. I looked around and saw nothing but pegasi, all of them wearing white lab coats. Some of them stained with blood. What is this place?! I casted an invisibility spell on myself and made my way through the factory. I saw Rainbow Dash enter a room labeled RF-132. I slipped in before the door closed. My mouth opened in horror.
OH... MY... GOD... This is worse then all of the Saw traps combined into one!
I think I'm going to throw up...
What I saw before me was a massive machine type thing, it had claw like arms, it held a small orange filly... Scootaloo! What is she doing here?! The machine fired up, Scootaloo screamed as she was broken and battered as the machine crushed and streched her. Blood sprayed everywhere as she was broken in half. I gagged, what is happening?! I had to get somepony to help me! I then realized the spell had gone out, I was completely visable... and worse of all, Rainbow Dash saw me!
“GET HIM!” She barked at the others, they all charged at me.
I blasted all of them back, knocking them out. Rainbow Dash charged at me head on, she had caught me off guard and smashed her head into my chest, sending me back. I caught myself and fired more shots at her. She dodged all of them, more ponies broke in and began to attack me. I fought them off, one sneaked up behind me and wrapped his hooves around my neck and began to choke me. I gagged and gasped for breath as I struggled, more and more the ponies came and jumped on me like I was in a football game.
“NOT TODAY! NOT EVER!” I blasted all of the pegasus off me with one massive blow. Sending them through the walls.
“How did you find this place?!” Rainbow Dash roared.
“You looked scared, I followed you!” I said. The machine had stopped and began pouring Scootaloo's remains into some type of other machine below the other.
“What is this place?!” I asked. Rainbow Dash looked at me furiously. I had to know!
“You will never find out!” She charged at me again, I levitated her and threw it against the machine, sparks flew out and I heard a sickening crack as Rainbow Dash's wing broke against the hard steel of the machine. I felt myself tense.
“Nowhere to run now...” I said as I stepped over to face Rainbow Dace, who was cradling her broken wings.
“You wouldn't kill me...” She hissed at me and spit at my face. I wiped it off.
“You're coming with me, like it or not. This place is coming with me as well.” I said.
“How do you plan to do that?” Rainbow Dash hissed.
“Like this.” I answered, stomping her face with my hoof, knocking her out. I began to channel magic, I felt my head get a terrible pain as I attempted to not only transport me and Rainbow Dash, but the entire factory to King Horus. The sky filled with a blinding light, making all of Equestria shield their eyes at the blinding light. I did it! I had transported the entire factory to the castle. It floated over the highest top of Canterlot Castle. I teleported me and Rainbow Dash down to King Horus.
“What the hell happened?!” He said as he looked and saw my blood splattered body, and an unconcious Rainbow Dashing, bleeding from the wing, knocked out on the ground.
“Follow me, I have something to show you.” I said, I beckoned him forward. I faced the guards.
“Do NOT let her leave if she wakes up, we will return soon.” I said, I spread my wings at the same time King Horus did, and we sped forward to the massive factory.
I love cliffhangers. Even if they are weak ones.
CHAPTER NINE: Fall of The Factory
Horus and I exited the castle to see the factory still floating above. I sped towards it, not waiting for King Horus to catch up.
Like he really needs to, he's the freaking KING.
I opened the doors and let Horus inside.
“This isn't just it, I want to show you something more.” I beckoned him over to the room with that machine. I found it and blasted the doors open.
“What is this pla- oh my...” King Horus gasped at the massive machine. We approached it.
“Whatever this thing is, it killed Scootaloo. See these blood stains?” I pointed my hoof at one of the fresh blood stains that covered a large area of the hard tile floor.
“How did it kill her?” Horus asked.
“It mashes them up, and then pours their limp and broken bodies into this machine here. I saw it first hand...” I shuddered.
“It was terrible.”
King Horus approached a large red button with the labels RF on it in white. He pressed the button and the machine began to steam and go to work, with no one in it.
“I will have this place contained and destroyed.” He said. I walked over to him slowly.
“What do you think RF stands for?” I asked. He pointed his hoof over to a sign that was on the back of the door.
“Rainbow... Factory...?” I said confused. I heard the door open behind me.
“Now a rainbow's tale isn't quite as nice,
As the story we knew of sugar and spice,
But a rainbow's easy once you get to know it,
With the help of the magic of a pegasus device...
Let's delve deeper into rainbow philosophy,
Far beyond that of Cloudsdale's mythology,
It's easy to misjudge that floating city
With's it's alluring décor and social psychology,
But with all great things comes a great responsibility,
That of Cloudsdale's being weather stability,
How, you ask, are they up to the task?
To which the answer is in a simple facility
In the Rainbow Factory, where your fears and horrors come true...
In the Rainbow Factory, where not a single soul gets through...” Rainbow Dash limped through the door, singing the song slowly.
“Stay back! You are under arrest!” King Horus yelled.
“In the Rainbow Factory... where your fears and horrors come true...”
“I said stop! I will use force if I have to!” Horus yelled again.
“In the Rainbow Fac- AHH!”
Rainbow Dash was thrown back and hit the wall.
“My fucking wing!” She yelled.
“Rainbow Dash, you are hereby under arrest to a life sentence.” King Horus said.
“How long have you been doing this?” He asked.
“Longer then you'll ever know...” Rainbow Dash burst out into a spin chilling laughter.
Damn...
I don't like this. I don't like this AT ALL.
King Horus's horn began to glow and she was transported to jail in a split second.
“Come, I am going to destroy this facility. No pony will ever have the cursed luck to find, or be subject to this place.” King Horus transported us back to the throne room, where the guards lay, all out cold. I looked up to see the transparent ceiling. The factory was encased in some sort of bubble, and exploded. The debris stayed inside the bubble. Yet the explosion was silent...
Cool...
“Thank you for showing me the facility, you have saved lives.” King Horus said, he vanished. I exited the castle and went off back to the house. When I arrived, Silvermoon was laying on the couch.
“Did you have fun?” Silvermoon asked, kissing me.
“You have no idea...” I replied with a smirk. I was tired so I slumped down on the couch to take a nap. Silvermoon cuddled right next to me and laid her head on my chest.
D'awwwwww...
I closed my eyes and drifted off to sleep.
CHAPTER TEN: Soon To Be
It felt good to have a few days off of doing anything. I was on something of a vacation really, I flew high over Cloudsdale, when suddenly a note appeared and covered my face.
“Ack! Damit!” I yelled as I lost focus and began to fall towards the ground, I took the note off my face and landed on the ground.
Dear Dorchester,
Please come to the throne room, we have some news for you.
Princess Celestia & Princess Luna
Uugh... please don't tell me that signs of Lace Danneggiato have been seen... I'm having so much fun!
How long has it been since we defeated him?
A few weeks.
I doubt he's already made his return. Must be something else.
I hope so.
I teleported myself over to the throne room, I saw King Horus, Luna, Celestia, and Silvermoon. Oh great... did King Horus tell her?
“Ah, Dorchester, it is good to see you so soon. I expect things have been going well?” King Horus asked.
“Things have been going great your highness.” I said with a smile.
“We have some good news for you,” Silvermoon said. I looked over and saw Princess Luna smiling widely.
Good news? Maybe this won't be so bad after all!
“Dorchester.” Silvermoon came up to me with adoring eyes.
“Yeah?” I asked, nervous but excited.
“I'm pregnant.”
My mouth opened in shock. I glanced over to see the two princesses smiling, even King Horus was smiling.
“Wha...” was the only thing I managed to get out.
“Your going to be a father!” Silvermoon grabbed me and kissed me.
Hell yeah!
This is great!
“This is great! I love it!” I exclaimed, I was going to be a father! I couldn't believe it! I felt over joyed!
“These moments call upon a rememberance Dorchester, the promise you made.” King Horus said, the smile quickly faded from my face.
“What does he mean?” Silvermoon asked.
“I'll explain later...” I said.
“You'll explain now.” King Horus demanded. I sighed.
“You know how I defeated Lace Danneggiato? Well... King Horus, can you take us to the hallway?”
King Horus nodded, we were teleported to the cave, in front of the picture of me and Danneggiato.
“Yes, you died, but you were saved from something.” Silvermoon said. I felt something tug at my chest, this was going to break her heart...
“Well... that wasn't supposed to happen. I was supposed to die, but something stopped me... I made a deal with King Horus to go back in time and stop myself from being revived... but only until Lace Danneggiato rises again.” I said. Silvermoon looked at me.
“It's fine... I just... how long do you expect?” She asked.
“Reviewing time itself, I was able to calculate the time it would take until Lace would return. Do not fear, it will be a very very long time.” King Horus said, he brought us back to the throne room.
“Well, let's not waste any time!” Silvermoon said. I liked how she always looked on the bright side of things.
“We've got some studying to do!” She took my hoof and we were engulfed in a bright light, and we were back at our house.
“Study?” I asked.
“For the arrival! Duh!” Silvermoon threw book after book at me.
“The foal won't be arriving for a long time though.” I said.
“The early bird catches the worm!” Silvermoon said with a giggle.
She's got you on a leash dude! Ha ha ha!
CHAPTER TWELVE: Stars
I watched as Lance's son, Spark, played outside with the other fillies at the schoolyard. I sighed deeply, wishing I felt like they did, happy and carefree. Not having that damn feeling of “You must save the world, but your death must take place first.” feeling, like you know that you must make a great sacrifice in order to save everyone.
“You okay?” Silvermoon asked me, making me jump.
“Huh? Oh yeah, I'm fine. Just a bit tired that's all.” I faked a yawn.
“Then go to bed, you've been up all night.” Silvermoon laid herself on my back. I felt her warm body up against my back.
“I... need to think.” I said. I pushed Silvermoon off my back with my wings.
“Okay, but you won't be thinking so much when this foal is born you know.” Silvermoon smirked, walking away from me. She was right... but I barley had the mind to think as it was.
“Am I... depressed?” I asked myself.
I'm not sure, maybe we'll find out soon.
I don't want to have a foal with a depressed father, we'd be a bad infuelence!
Now you're making me feel bad...
I slumped forward, I couldn't keep my eyelids open for long.
“Tell me what to do...” I groaned, slamming my face onto the balcony edge. Ouch...
I got up and went back into bed. I opened the window and listened to the sounds of the high howling winds as they passed through the swirling curtains. I breathed slowly, taking it all in.
“What stopped me from dying?” I asked myself.
“Maybe it was the thing that saved you...” I answered, great, now I was talking to myself.
“The thing that saved me? Then what could have saved me?”
“Love.”
I bolted up right... how could love save me? It wasn't one of the Elements of Harmony... but it was possible... I put my hoof under my chin, thinking. Was Luna's love... enough to save me? I shook my head, no... or maybe yes... I wasn't sure what to think, I felt lightheaded, Silvermoon was right... I did need to sleep. I made my way back to the bedroom and slid into the bed and drifted off into a deep slumber.
When I woke up, it was late at night. I saw Silvermoon laying next to me, her eyes closed. I smiled at the sleeping body of my lovely wife, I rubbed her back a few times before getting up to go outside and get some fresh air. I walked outside of my house, and sniffed in a big breath of cool night air. I stretched my wings, and took off.
The air ruffled my feathers as I flew high through the air. I looked up to see a full moon.
Did love truly save me? Or something more?
I wasn't sure... but I kept going.
I flew higher, and higher, until it was hard to breath. I saw stars, hundreds of them.
Are stars just like us? They live, and they die, but do they communicate with each other? I wonder what they look like. I know they're just massive space rocks, but what did they look like? Normal everyday rocks? Or like smaller moons.
I slowly descended down back onto the ground, watching the stars vanish behind a thick layer of clouds. When I touched the ground, I began to walk back towards my home. I opened the door, and sat on the couch. My horn began to glow like the tip of a wand, and I began to look around. I picked out a book about the planets and stars, and began to read.
The Next Morning...
I closed the book and looked at the time. It was early in the morning, not yet time someone would usually wake up, so I headed back upstairs to see Silvermoon peacefully asleep. I laid next to her, and wrapped myself around her. I closed my eyes and buried my face into her back, I felt her put her hoof around me.
I didn't see it happen, but we both smiled as we cuddled together in bed. I thought to myself... "Do stars think like we do? Do they have emotions?"
I could only wonder...
CHAPTER THIRTEEN: Watching Chaos
I leaned my back against the pillar in the throne room, laughing as Annabel, or Anarchy tried to get Princess Celestia to allow her to release Discord. I wonder what it would be like...
“Listen, Celestia, I'm the same creature as he is. That means, he'll be all over me.”
I chuckled a bit, the two looked at me.
“I'd beg to differ.”
“Like you would know anything about chaos, Dorchester.” Annabel gave me a nasty look.
I crossed my hooves.
“Just sayin'”
Dude, she'll turn you into a pie!
I wonder what I would taste like?
What's gotten into you?!
I continued to listen until Celestia finally gave up.
“Okay... I'll let you do this. But if he gets out of control, he's going to the moon!” Celestia warned.
“Don't worry Cel, I'll keep him under control.” Annabel laughed. Did she just bow?
“You better.” Frederic said, he was by the doorway. His arms crossed.
“Hey, one question.” I said raising my hoof.
“Uugh, what?” Annabel groaned.
“Do you like bananas?” I asked, trying my best to keep myself from laughing.
“What?” Celestia said confused as me and Frederic began chuckling like little school kids.
Annabel smirked. "Peter still doesn't know it was you who broke his guitar..."
I froze in spot, she was right. Peter still didn't know!
Celestia looked at me shocked, "You broke his guitar?"
I laughed nervously. "Long story."
Celestia turned back to Annabel.
“Go get two bronies to fight in front of the statue. That should get him out in a few seconds.”
“Easy.”
Annabel snapped her fingers. Lance and Greg appeared out of nowhere.
“... fucking rip your horn off and shove it up your fucking ass and make you eat your own...”
I burst out laughing and fell on the ground. Wait, Nova was here to?! I never noticed! Even better! By the time I got up Lance and Greg had already began to fight. Damn that was fast.
There was a large crack and I heard a familiar voice. One I had not heard in a long time.
“Ahh, free at last!” Discord cackled.
“Ah, another Draconequus, how interesting.”
He saying he's the only one?
I've always been a fan of his. I'll ask him later.
I shifted my gaze over to Lance and Greg. The two had stopped fighting. I suddenly felt envious. I liked chaos. I made my way over to Lance and helped him up.
“Who were you yelling at?” I asked.
“Trixie.” He answered. Wasn't too surpised. I always hated her.
“Not a big shock there.”
“I've never been with another Draconequus before, mostly because I'm one of the only ones. I'm interested in seeing how this plays out.”
Well, there's your answer you crazy son of a bitch.
I laughed. I was going to like having Discord around.
That's MR. Dorchester to you!
Just to put out some fires. Dorchester and I, are completely different bodies. The name Mr. Dorchester came up, oddly enough, while I was in a live chat room while I couldn't get the song Dorchester out of my head. I decided to call myself Mr. Dorchester, using inspiration from SUPERMARIOGALAXY13/Mr. Galaxy. Dorchester, on the other hand, is just someone I think the name fits. I just wanted to have Dorchester say Mr. Dorchester cause I think it would be funny.
CHAPTER FOURTEEN: That's MR. Dorchester to you!
I unfolded the newspaper, nothing. I sighed and put it down.
“Just a few more months before the foal is born!” Silvermoon said excitedly.
I huffed. “Yeah.” I decided not to mention to her AGAIN that it's only been two weeks since the news. Whenever I mentioned low long it's been she always go on about how we should use the time to prepare, I mean we've already set up the foals room and I've read more then a couple books on parenting skills!
“Dorchester, could you go and get some groceries for us? We're running a little low.”
I got off the couch and felt my saddlebag for any bits. Yeah, I had enough for a trip.
“What do we need?” I asked.
“Just the essentials: Hay-”
“Hay is for horses.” I said chuckling to myself. Silvermoon looked at me like I was a little kid.
“But we are horses.”
“No,” I said, waving my hoof. “We're ponies.” I smiled smuggly.
Silvermoon sighed. “Just go and get whatever your heart desires you big weirdo.”
“You know you like it.” I whispered in Silvermoon's ear as I walked out the door with my saddlebag and head off to the local market.
I returned soon after and dropped off all the items I had bought from the market in their rightful place. When I arrived at the living room Silvermoon had planted herself on the couch with her back to a comfy looking pillow. She was reading a book, about parenting of course. I walked behind her and began to play with her mane.
“I gotta ask you something.” I said while throwing her mane around.
“What?” She asked calmly. My hooves were pushed away by hers. Had I really made that much of a mess that quick? I began to flatten her mane out out.
“How old are you? In human years?” I asked after I had finished flattening Silvermoon's mane as best I could.
“Old enough.” She responded, going back to her book.
How old was Lance? Eighteen?
Yeah.
No wait, he was nineteen!
Damn, forgot his birthday.
So that makes us... 23?
Yeah.
“How old is old enough?” I smiled smugly again.
“You're acting like a child, come on.” Silvermoon giggled.
“One that you like.” I said.
“Maybe a little...” Silvermoon blushed.
“What does it matter? At least I know I'm mature.”
Oh no she didn't...
She's probably right.
“You saying I ain't mature?”
“Whaddya think?” Silvermoon put the book down as I joined her on the couch. I sat right next to her, she adjusted herself so she was now laying across my lap, her head on my legs.
“I think you're saying I'm not mature.” Silvermoon smirked as I said that.
“Yeah, maybe.” She responded with a wink.
Damn, she's got you.
Not yet...
“Than how mature do you think I am?” I bent over a bit until our noses touched.
“This much.” Silvermoon kissed me and wrapped herself around me.
Now who's got each other?
Fuck you man. Fuck you.
We seperated, I still held Silvermoon by the haunches and stroked them. She made some sort of purring sound.
“So, does that answer your question?”
“Maybe.”
“Oh?”
I brought her closer to me.
“Let's destroy this place.” I said with an lust filled grin.
“Oh Dorchester...”
“That's MR. Dorchester to you...”
When did you turn into Jack Sparrow?
That's CAPTAIN Jack Sparrow to you.
Do you hear that? That's my faith in you jumping out of a window.
---~---
So... what did you think? I just thought this type of chapter would be fun because I haven't done something like this before, let me know what you think and what I could improve on! I welcome criticism, just don't make it too harsh like: “OMFGWTFBBQ TIS SUX ON ICE”
…
Did I just reference Team Fortress 2? Damn I did.
First time using colors in my text, let me know what you think.
CHAPTER FIFTEEN: Second Side
Dear Dorchester,
I have something to show you. Please come over to my shop, don't bring anypony else. I've already showed them.
Rarity
I folded the note, odd that I was getting a letter from Rarity. She has been very busy lately, but I guess that it must be very important if she would put time off to show me something. Yet the don't bring anypony else thing just made me feel odd, but it was Rarity. I hope.
Skip a few minutes...
I knocked on the door with my hoof, Rarity opened the door.
“Quick, get inside.” She grabbed me and tossed me into the room. I landed on my rump. Hard.
“What's the matter?” I asked while rubbing my backside as I got up.
“I need to show you something, I've grown to trust you better over the time you've been here and I think it's about time I show you this.” Her horn began to glow and we where tansported to some sort of... how do I put this... basement?
“You're a brony, which means you have heard of Pinkamina? Am I correct?”
Yeah, the other side of Pinkie. I knew her, or at least heard about her.
“Ya, I know all about her.” I responded, I wasn't sure where Rarity was getting with this. Maybe she had a different side?
“Well... I've got a second side, much like hers. But different.”
That confused me. A lot.
“What?”
“I think it's best I just show you. Just please don't be surprised..."
Rarity was engulfed in... blood?
What is going on?
I don't like this...
“HOLY FUCK!” I shouted and landed on my back. Rarity looked different! A lot different...
"Well... this wasn't much of a surprise." Rarity sighed.
“Wha... I don't...” I stammered.
Rarity's left eye was completely black, but with a small white dot I made out to be her... pupil?!
“Oh my god!” I yelled in horror as Rarity looked over at me with a worried look on her face.
Along with the pitch black were scars, massive jagged scars that seemed to never heal. On her chest was some sort of heart, it looked like it was burnt in, not tattoed, like something had taken a steaming hot piece of metal in the shape of a heart and just forced it onto her chest. It was terrible.
“I know... I look terrible don't I?” Rarity asked.
“No... you just caught me by surprise.” I gasped. Standing up, I approached Rarity. I sucked at lying...
“Don't worry... I have left all those terrible things I did behind me.”
"Excuse me?" I asked.
"I did terrible things in my past and well, this happened."
“Sorry if I scared you, I wasn't expecting this type of reaction.” Rarity shuffled her hooves nervously.
“No! No! It's fine! I've seen worse.” I laughed nervously
“Might as well change back.”
Rarity changed back the same way she changed to her... demented... self.
“I already showed Peter, but he doesn't seem to mind.”
I waved my hoof. “No worries, but next time you do that, make sure to at least tell me first so I don't have a heart attack.”
Rarity laughed. “No problem.”
CHAPTER SIXTEEN: Nepsis
“And that is everything you need to know about Chaos magic, my dear Dorchester.” Discord floated above the ground on his back. I sat on the floor like a little filly.
“Okay... now when are you actually going to talk about Chaos Magic, instead of talking about how many times you've used it.”
Discord shook his head slightly and laughed, clutching his stomach.
“I'm the only real master of Chaos here. Between you and me,” Discord flew up to my ear and whispered.
“Anarchy has still got a LOT to learn.” He flew back laughing. I didn't find that comment very funny.
“Okay... are you going to teach me or what?” I said, rolling my hoof impatiently.
“Fine, fine. You aren't much fun.” Discord snickered.
I reflected on a few days ago when I felt snazzy.
“You haven't gotten to know me.” I said smuggly.
“I've heard a lot about you, Anarchy told me all about your little crush on Princess Luna. She's not all you think she is.” Discord smirked as I felt myself blush.
I growled. "I'm gonna get her for that..."
I looked up to see Discord still smiling. He didn't hear me, good. "Well, it's part of the past now."
“That's good to hear. I also heard you had a little tussle with yourself before giving death the finger.”
“I expected you to know that Lace Danneggiato was only part of me, whatever was left was the spirit of destruction.”
“I guess you could say so.” Discord said, running his claws through the back of his head.
“Me and Lace have got a... interesting family history.” Discord chuckled.
I moaned.
“What?” Discord asked.
“Just teach me magic and you can tell me your story when you're done.”
“Hasty aren't we today? I guess that's what you get.” Discord snapped his fingers and a lab coat strung around his body and a big chalk board appeared lined with doodles of Discord and other stuff. Lots of stuff.
“Let me show you what I'm talking about when you mention Chaos Magic.” He snapped his fingers and we ended up in what Ponyville looked like in Season 2 Episode 2.
“Yeah, that's about right.” I said.
“Was expecting you to object, but okay!” Discord took us back to the training room.
“I will now give you some... pointers on how to channel Chaos Magic. Stay alert, or as you say, Nepsis.”
“That's not English.”
“Excuse me?”
“Nepsis is Greek for Stay Alert, keep your wits about you, expect the unexpec- WHOA!” I yelled.
The room suddenly turned upside down and I landed on the ceiling, or what was now the floor.
“You where saying?” Discord floated next to me with his chin in his palms. I gave him a nasty look.
“Discord, but everything back where it belongs.”
“What fun is there when there's chaos to reek!” Discord exclaimed with glee.
“Besides, why don't you do it? I've heard you have a knack for magic.”
“Because I don't know how to.” I said, rubbing my aching head.
“Exactly, use your magic, but in the opposite...” Discord stopped and pointed his finger up, but it went through some sort of portal, and appeared pointing downwards.
“Direction.” Discord finished. I think I got it.
“Think the opposite?”
“Yeah!”
“Okay, let me try.” I began to think of this room turning outside in, even though it already was. Discord took notice.
“Inside out room huh? Haven't tried that one in a long time.” He said. His finger on his chin, obersving the scene.
The room turned inside out, I'm not going to explain how that looked...
“Impressive for a start.” Discord said with a sly smile.
“What else can you teach me?” I asked.
“More then you could ever dream of my fine friend...” Discord took my left shoulder and smiled, I grinned back.
I was going to like having Discord around.
IMPORTANT REMINDER:
Bold – Xax
Underlined – Xas
Italic – Dorchester talking to Xax and Xas inside his head
Bold Underlined: Fallen Angel/Xaxas
CHAPTER SEVENTEEN: Xaxas
I needed to find some way to bring back Fallen Angle, like Lance's Breaking Dawn, or Peter's Violent Inferno.
“You want to... revive The Fallen Angel?” Celestia looked at me in shock.
“Yes, when I came back from the dead I was still an alicorn. Which means I still have a bit of Lace Danneggiato inside of me. That piece of Lace helped create Fallen Angel, and I want to bring him back so I can protect myself and my family.”
Celestia looked at me doubtfully.
“Don't worry,” I said, waving my hoof. “I haven't forgotten how to control him.”
“Alright... just be careful.” Celestia said.
This is gonna be so totally fucking rad!
It'll be good to come back out again.
Celestia's horn emitted some sort of dark magic, which seeped into my chest. I felt a painful burning sensation inside my chest.
“The pain will pass.” Celestia said. I looked at her and nodded.
The pain become blinding and I roared out in agony. I fell to the floor, gasping for air.
“What the hell is going on?!” Frederic said, his hands in his hair. He is still a human like Lance.
“You remember Dorchester's other side, Fallen Angel?”
“Yeah, is he coming back?”
“Yes. No need to worry.”
“WORRY?! I... FUCK THIS HURTS... AAAAHHH!!!” I yelled out, a pitch black blast surrounded my body and I became Fallen Angel. This time I was dark red with sharp armored wings, enscripted with some sort of signs and strange letters. My eyes resembled that of Lace Danneggiato's, all black, with a red slit cutting through the middle.
“Better...” I said, my voice was still in unison with Xax and Xas.
“Yet I think the term Fallen Angel has grown... weary. I wish to be known as... Xaxas.”
“Xaxas?” Celestia said confused. “I never heard that term before.”
What I said next surprised me.
"Xaxas, Elemental, fury/Chaos/Catastrophe. Another name for a dragon I slayed when I was a human.”
“Dragons lived on Earth?” Princess Celestia looked shocked.
I chuckled. “To some degree.”
“Well, now that you've got your old form back, what do you plan to do?” Frederic said, slinging his arm around my neck, he pulled it away.
“Fuck! Ow! Dude! Your coat is burning hot!” He held his slightly burnt hand.
I ran my hoof on my chest.
“I don't feel anything.”
Celestia studied me closely, “Must have something to do with the transformation, I highly suggest letting others know about your condition.”
I nodded.
“Yeah, I don't want anyone getting hurt. That's the last thing on my list.”
I exited the castle and turned back into my regular alicorn self.
That was fun!
It felt good.
Yeah, we should do that again sometime. Just for fun.
I walked over to my house and opened the door. Silvermoon lay listening to the radio, some smooth jazz was playing as I walked over and sat down next to her. She opened her eyes and looked at me.
“Where have you been?” She asked.
“This.” I answered. I transformed into Xaxas.
“This is what I've been doing lately.”
“Wow...” Silvermoon gawked at my form.
“Just don't touch me, Frederic said my coat is really really hot.”
“As long as you don't transform when we're... together.” Silvermoon blushed.
“No problem.” I said as I turned back.
“So, what do you want to do?” I asked. Silvermoon walked behind me and mounted my back.
Silvermoon purred. “How about you and me, have some time together upstairs.”
I liked that idea.
“Of course my lady...” I said, I walked up the stairs with Silvermoon laying on my back. I slammed the door behind me with a grin on my face.
I was going to enjoy this...
Tythol and Lace Danneggiato
CHAPTER EIGHTEEN: Tythol and Lace Danneggiato
“Send him here.”
“Yes father.”
Meanwhile...
I had went shopping for a present for Peter as I had received his letter only a day ago. I felt myself being teleported and gasped when I appeared in a lightly lit room. Torches mounted the walls and a large stone tablet was lain out in front of me, carved with sketches of what looked like Luna, Celestia, Horus, and what I guessed to be Isiset. Above them was a larger alicorn, several wings much like Pinkie Pie's “robe” in Cupcakes (Sorry that I had to remind you of that, couldn't compare it with anything else.) lined his back. He wore a massive crown upon his head with a large ruby placed in the middle.
“That... is Tythol. The creator of this universe.”
King Horus's deep voice made me jump and turn back to see him, approaching me with Luna and Celestia.
“Tythol was a great being, he created this universe as I created Equestria with Isiset. When his brother, Lace Danneggiato-”
“Excuse me?” I said, surprised. “Lace Danneggiato is Tythol's BROTHER?”
You are fucking kidding me!
“Yes, he became power hungry, and created The Darkness to do his dirty work. The first generation of The Darkness was defeated by me, Isiset, Luna, Celestia, and Tythol. Lace Danneggiato approached us himself, banishing us to a realm of darkness. We began to store our power until a weakness was shown in the barrier and we broke through. It was too late, Lace had already filled the universe with what you call Evil. Our battle lasted for centuries until Lace Danneggiato wounded Tythol greatly, sending him deep into the waves of the universe, never to be found again. Me and Isiset created The Balance, who took Tythol's position and ruled the universe. Lace Danneggiato fled, as sending Tythol down that far into the waves took a great amount of energy. Thus Discord took Lace's position. Before he could escape and recharge, Luna and Celestia went after Lace and destroyed him. Or so we thought, he had it all planned out and released the current generation of The Darkness, now permanently defeated.”
I guess it makes sense.
“To this day we haven't had any signs of Tythol or Lace Danneggiato, ever since their most recent defeats. I have tried to bring Tythol back, but no amount of magic can rise him. It is up to Tythol himself to store up enough power and rise up... who knows how long that will be?” Horus looked down on the large stone tablet. It was Isiset, Horus, Celestia, Luna, and Tythol all fighting a massive snake like creature with a ponies head. It was Lace Danneggiato, yet I saw something that looked like him. Discord?
“Yes, Discord is...a pure fragment of Lace's being. Now contained so he cannot cause anymore major damage. What you see him preform is actually nothing compared to what Lace will do if he rises. Before you defeated him, Lace had just risen after billions of years and wasn't ready for such a battle. His soul was connected to yours, your two sides, Xax and Xas, formally known as Corruption and Chiro. Xax, who used to be Corruption was infused with Lace's dark power, giving him that snake like voice you would hear before Greg preformed the spell on you.”
It all made sense now...
“Lace used all of your negative emotions to fuel him, which still wasn't strong enough, which explains why you died and came back. He planned to use everything he could, even your own life when all he really needed was your negative emotions.”
“I don't understand... why me?” I asked. Looking up at King Horus.
“Because you're past made you an easier target. Your body was weak and tired from it's stress and anger. Lace used your body ever since you returned to Equestria after the destruction of your world. Xaxas, your alternate form, means you and Lace are still connected, but he cannot use you as you had wounded him too greatly. He cannot harm you until he breaks the ground and surfaces once again.”
“But why did you take me here?” I asked.
“Because we thought-” He turned his head over to Celestia and Luna.
Princess Celestia took a small step forward. “Because we thought, since you will bring Lace's true end upon him, that it would make sense for you to know the true story. Rarity had shown you her corrupted side, I presume?”
“Yes...” I said, shuddering. Those scars... that one black eye and the torn mane...
“That is another part of Lace Danneggiato, that is now under her control. Xaxas is also under your control, but until Lace rises, you and Rarity will be able to control your two sides."
“Is there anything else?” I asked.
“There is nothing else for you to know. I can assure you of that, and take this, Peter will enjoy it.” Horus floated a wrapped bag.
“What is it?” I asked, taking the box with my own magic.
“A little something both you and Greg can do. Remember to let Peter have it, also make sure Greg see's it first.” Horus said with a smile and a wink, he teleported me back to my house in my bed. Silvermoon had already fallen asleep as it had become late. I levitated the box into the closet, and shut my eyes. I head the bed rustle and Silvermoon had put herself against me. I laid my hooves on my chest, and my wings curled around me and Silvermoon. I fell asleep almost instantly.
Dorchester VS Greg: EPIC RAP BATTLE!
I think you'll like this one. I've been listening to a lot of Epic Rap Battles of History and I thought that Dorchester and Greg would make an awesome epic rap battle. Also, no more depressing scenes! Until the end of course. I wanted to stray away from that, from now on it's going to all happy and stuff...
CHAPTER NINETEEN: Dorchester Vs Greg – EPIC RAP BATTLE!
I flew over to the party with the box in my hand. Horus said that I should take it to Greg first, so that is exactly what I did.
“Hey dude, what do you need?”
“King Horus said I should give this to you.” I handed him the present.
“Oh yeah, I got a letter talking about something we both enjoyed back on Earth, he told me to open it.” Greg lifted the package and unwrapped it. A large radio appeared, he turned it on and it played the instrumental version of Mario Bros VS Wright Bros.
“I'll be Mario Bros.” Greg said, he held out his hoof.
I smirked. "This should be good..."
We brohoofed.
“Deal.” I said with a grin.
Later...
“Should we begin without Lance?” Greg asked, as he kept the radio on his back.
“I'm not sure, I also noticed that the radio came with another tape. Labled V VS H.” I grinned. My favorite rap battle.
“Dorchester! Greg!” Peter greeted us with a smile.
“This was sort of a last second thing, I hope you don't mind.” I said.
“No problem!”
“Sounds good dude, hit it!”
Note: Some lyrics have been changed to fit rap battle.
Dorchester: We're the Wright Brothers and there can't be no other,
we don't wanna cause trouble,
are you looking for your lover?
Cause your “princess” is in OUR castle now!
(Yeah, she's gone.)
We stayed up all night!

Greg:

Dorchester: I don't need to fight,

Greg:

Spit flames out my mouth like my name was Booooowser!
Ya get pummeled!
You wish you never stumbled out your little wind tunnel!
I've been dropppin' ba-bombs since I started this song!
Sorry “Wright” brother, this time you chose WRONG!
The audience burst into applause and laughter. Everyone who knew about Super Mario and The Wright Brothers at least. I put in the other tape, and a sudden bang of chorus bursted in.
Greg: Who are you?
Dorchester:
Someone who loaths you BITCH!
Now get up and rhyme,
I only agreed to this so I could beat your ass a second time!
Roar like Chewbacca! The voice of Mufasa!

Greg:

Everything you do is an EPIC. FAIL.
Now stand at attention,
AND SEIG FUCKING HAIL.
What's wrong Dorchy?
Can't take anymore?
Not surprising coming from Luna's whore!
Once again, the audience burst into laughter and applause. The Luna comment took me by surprise, but I shoved it away and laughed.
“THAT WAS AWESOME!” Peter jumped up and hugged us.
“Glad you liked it!” I said, gasping for air as I was crushed by Peter's grip.
“Yeah, you can keep the radio if you like!” Greg said.
“Thanks guys! That was awesome! Let's party!”
I hope you all liked that chapter, I was planning it for awhile and I was just dying to try it out.
CHAPTER TWENTY ONE: Heat Stroke Pt. 2
I opened the curtains slightly to see if any mares had shown up. I saw a few calmly walk out the doors and look around.
“Lemme see!” Greg yelped, pushing me aside.
“SSSHHH!!” Everyone hissed at Greg, who backed away smiling nervously. I looked back outside. The mares had gone. I closed the curtains.
“Turn off the lights!” I whispered, everyone ran over to every light source and shut them off, turning the house completely dark.
“Great, now we can't see!”
“Hold on, hold on, I've got a spell for this!” I hissed, my horn glowed brightly in the darkness, and everyone was able to see as though the lights had never been turned off.
“Thanks,” David said.
“Ssh, I hear someone.” Silvermoon said.
“Hit the deck!” I whispered. We all laid down, we heard the sound of steps. Suddenly a stallion somewhere else, thank goodness, yelled out.
“NOOO! HELP! HEEEELP!”
“Oh god... I bear to can't hear this...” Silvermoon shut her eyes and covered her ears.
“It's alright.” I said, putting my arm around Silvermoon. She opened her eyes and smiled weakly at me. There was a banging sound on the door. Shit!
Fucking mother of holy fucking shit fuck!
This isn't good!
“Don't. Make. Any. Noise.” I hissed, the banging continued until debris flew everywhere and a large group of mares looked at us hungrily...
“LUNA?!” Frederic gasped as he saw his wife, smacking her lips.
“MINE!” She screeched and dived for us, we ran back upstairs into the main bedroom and shut the door.
“Oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck...” Frederic said with his voice full of panic.
“They've got the princesses on their side now, we're scr-”
CRASH!
“Are you serious?!” I gasped, it was Luna followed by Celestia.
“It's Molestia! Ruun!” Lance yelled, we darted backwards, smashing the window and landing on our feet and on the ground, clear of any mares.
“Now what?! We've lost our one and only line of defense!” Peter yelled.
“Quiet you idiot! Or else they'll hear you!” I snapped. I pointed my hoof over to Canterlot Castle.
“King Horus! Of course!” Lance said happily.
“DAVID! LOOK OUT!” Greg screamed, but it was too late. David had been grabbed my Luna and Celestia, both with hungry looks on their faces.
“SAVE YOURSELVES! RUUN!” He yelled as he was pulled closer and closer. Greg's horn began to glow and we were teleported to the throne room.
“I DIDN'T ACTUALLY MEAN IT YOU FUCKING DICKS!” David yelled before his voice became muffled as mare after mare began to suddenly appear and work down on him.
Back at the throne room...
“King Horus!” I gasped as I saw him. The doors behind him where shielded by some type of magical wall.
“Even I can't keep it blocked forever. We have this time to deploy some type of plan.” Horus said. I sensed a little bit of panic in his voice. Not good...
He's been around since the beginning, I'm sure he doesn't enjoy The Heat as well.
The door banged, cracks had begun to appear.
“I suggest we stand back.” He said. Suddenly, the door burst open and piles of mares began to flow through the room.
“It's like a fuc- AAAAGGHHH!” Greg's scream turned into one of joy after a few seconds as mares piled on him. Surprise, surprise.
“Retreat!” King Horus boomed, we ran upstairs until we reached the ballroom.
“How long has it been?!” Peter said, his entire body shaking.
“Only a few minutes.”
“A FEW MINUTES?! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! We've already lost David and Greg, and Frederic is freaking out because his wife nearly raped him!”
Sure enough, Frederic still sat on the floor, rocking back and forth.
“That eyes... those damned eyes...” He mumbled under his breath.
“Everyone calm down, we can hold out until the next night.” We all jumped as the windows surrounding the ballroom shattered, pegasus streamed through the shattered windows. Without thinking where to teleport us, I preformed a massive teleportation spell.
“Nice one.” Lance said, rubbing his eyes.
“Where are we?” Frederic said, calming down.
“Oh no...” Peter said with his eyes wide.
“Nice one Dorchester, nice one.” King Horus said.
“Yes... Nice one Dorchester...”
CHAPTER TWENTY TWO: Asphyxiation
We backed away.
“You just HAD to teleport us over to Rarity when she's in heat, not to mention that her corrupted side takes over.” King Horus said with a sigh.
“It's not MY fault!” I said, my back against the wall as Rarity approached us slowly, her right eye was black as night, with a small white dot as the pupil.
“Ooh Opal...” Rarity cooed.
“You're kidding...” I said, a massive chill going up my spine. The outline of a tall, human like figure was standing in the darkness and slowly began to approach us.
“Get us out of here!” Silvermoon hissed.
I began to preform another teleportation spell, but I was too tired.
“I can't do anything, that protecting spell took a lot out of me.”
I looked over to Frederic, he began to freak out again. No way he was getting us out of here anytime soon.
Greg! Wait... no... he's gone.
The shadowy figure approached us behind Rarity. I felt like I wanted to throw up. Before us stood a tall, doll of Pinkie Pie with her straight hair. Was that... teeth?! Oh shit! The doll's mouth had been ripped open to reveal jaw with a jagged smiling grin!
“Why do I feel like something related to The Smoker is going ha- GAACK! IT'S GOT ME!” Peter screamed out in terror, what the hell is going on?! A massive bloody tongue has shot itself out of the dolls mouth and wrapped itself around Peter's body, dragging him towards Rarity and the doll.
“Oh mommy, we're going to have so much fun...”
“Yes Opal... yes we shall...”
“HELP! FAAACK!” Peter yelled out, King Horus stepped forward and shot a blast of fire at the doll. Of course! It was a doll! Fabric will catch on fire easily! The tongue released Peter, who got up and stumbled towards us. He latched onto Lance's chest and began to sob.
“AAAAHHH!” The doll screamed as it slowly burned down to the ground. Rarity shot a big wave of water, blasting the doll back. It was charred and burnt. I saw something pumping inside the dolls chest... Opals Heart...
“Mommy... I don't feel so good.”
“Mommy will make you feel all better when this is over Opal.”
I could only think of one thing.
“RUN!” I yelled at the top of my lungs. I sprinted back into the wall.
“Ouch...” I groaned and fell to the ground. I heard a sickening slushing sound and Peter was being dragged back again.
“HELP!” He yelled, I ran up and stomped the dolls bloody tongue with my hoof, it didn't release! I watched in horror as the doll and Rarity carried Peter upstairs. Rarity looked back at me and winked with her right eye. I had been pushed on the ground by the pushback of the tongue. I laid on the ground.
“Peter! Noo!” I yelled out. I held out my hoof.
“Forget about Peter, let's move!” Lance said. I was breathing hard.
“Yeah... let's keep going.” I said, getting up and going up the stairs. As long as Rarity and Opal were busy, we're safe. For now.
CHAPTER TWENTY THREE: When She Loved Me
Whatever remained of us left Rarity's house, hearing the screams of Peter.
“GUYS! I FINALLY FOUND YOU!” David came running towards us, his mane sopping wet and messed up.
“Princess Celestia and Luna teleported the three of us to their bedroom, after a few minutes they got bored and began to pleasure each other! I barley escape! One more thing, I AM GOING TO FUCKING KILL YOU DORCHESTER!” David pounced on me, but was thrown back by King Horus.
“Look, we don't have time to fight. There are hundreds of horny mares looking for us, and we have no idea when or where they might show up.”
Suddenly a mare perched herself on my back.
“JOCKEY!” I yelled as the mare screamed as she grinded my back. I was running everywhere.
“GET IT OFF GET IT OFF GET IT OFF! WHOAA!” I yelled as Silvermoon headbutted my chest, sending me and the mare flying back.
“Don't you dare try to touch my husband!” Silvermoon roared. The mare ran away yelling in terror.
“C'mon, I have a feeling that the two princesses will be coming back any moment now.” But before Lance could finish his sentence, thousands, if not hundreds of mares surrounded us. Followed by the two princesses.
“Gotcha.” Celestia said with a wild giggle, and we were ambushed.
The Next Day...
I woke up in the princesses bedroom with Lance, Frederic, David, and King Horus in the same room, still out cold.
Damn this headache hurts...
I rubbed my head, why did my groin hurt so... oh shit. Frederic is going to kill me if he ever finds out. My member was sticking out in front of Luna's face. Her tongue sticking out.
Damnit boy, find your clothes!
I scattered around, eventually finding my clothes and putting them on.
“Huh...? What...?” Celestia got up drowsily. She gasped and fell on her back when she saw the scene.
“Whoops...” She said, blushing.
“You can't control it. Just... forget about it. Please.” I shuddered, my head still throbbing and my groin aching.
I exited the castle, I needed some time by myself to forget that experience.
“Dorchester!” Silvermoon came walking up to me.
“I'm so sorry I couldn't help you! They just completely ignored me and went on.”
“It's fine.” I replied, slinging my arm around Silvermoon.
We returned to the house where I went into bed to take a nap. I was tired and my headache was a pain in the ass.
“Wake up Dorchester.”
…
“I said WAKE UP!”
“What?” I said yelled out, Silvermoon jerked awake.
“Is everything okay?” She asked me. I glanced outside. Dark.
“I just... I think I just heard something in my sleep that freaked me out.” I waved my hoof. “Forget about it.”
Silvermoon nodded and went back to sleep. I sighed and closed my eyes as I lowered myself back onto my bed.
“Dorchester. I won't leave you until you speak to me.”
I opened my eyes. I was in some sort of tie-die area, floating in midair. The dark purple and blue colors swirled around. I saw a bruised body of a massive golden and white alicorn. It lay there, motionless.
“Ty... Tythol...?”
“I've been waiting for you Dorchester. I may not be able to revive myself to my former glory, but I have gained enough power to bring you here.”
“What do you want from me?”
“I want nothing. At the moment. Actually, come to think of it. I want to talk to you.”
The massive curled body of Tythol didn't move.
“My soul was separated from my body when Lace... defeated me. I've heard you're going to go back in time and stop whatever saved you? What do you suspect it was?”
My eyes continued to stare at the unmoving body.
“I don't know.”
I was suddenly pushed back and fell to the floor.
“LIES! You suspected love.”
“What are you getting at?”
“Make it easier for yourself. Don't go back. If Lace defeated me... why chance do you have against him?”
“What are you talking about?!” I yelled.
“Are you happy?”
“Of course! I am being provided by the castle and have an amazing wife that I love and care for!”
“Is she the one you truly wanted?”
I see now he's mentioning Luna.
“Luna is very happy, and so am I!” I stomped my hoof on the ground.
“Are you sure about that?”
I began to become frustrated. “Of course!”
“I sense denial.”
“Let me go.” I demanded.
“Think about what you've witnessed. You may change your mind later.”
I woke up while the sun rose. I checked the clock beside me, it read 9:37 AM. Silvermoon was still sound asleep. I got out of bed and dressed myself.
After having a small breakfast, I went outside whistling a tune. Little did I know it was one of the saddest songs I had ever heard. I sighed and continued. I eventually found myself singing the lyrics.
“When somebody loved me,
everything was beautiful,
Every hour we spent together,
lives within my heart.
And when she was sad,
I was there to dry her tears,
and when she was happy, so was I,
when she loved me.
Through the summer and the fall,
we had each other, that was all,
just she and I together,
like it was meant to be.
And when she was lonely,
I was there to comfort her,
and I knew that she loved me.
So the years went by,
I stayed the same
and she began to drift away,
I was left alone,
still I waited for the day,
when she'd say:
“I will always love you.”
Lonely and forgotten,
never thought she'd look my way,
she smiled at me and held me,
just like she used to do,
like she loved me...
when she loved me...
When somebody loved me,
everything was beautiful,
every hour we spent together,
lives within my heart,
when she loved me...”
I felt myself feel lightheaded, I knew Tythol was summoning me again. I sat under a nearby tree and lay there.
I appeared in the arena once again.
“You still care for her.”
“I don't want to talk to you.” I said firmly.
“Why not? Maybe I can help you.”
“You can't help me. All you've done is sit around in the deepest waves of the universe! You've already given up!” I had my eyes fixed on the body of Tythol. I just knew it was watching me... somehow...
“That doesn't mean I still can't give you advice.”
“I don't need any advice! I'll go back, and stop love from saving me.”
“Love... so you have figured it out. How do you suppose it saved you?”
“That's what I'm trying to figure out.” I snapped.
“Fine. I'll send you back. But first, tell me this. What do you suppose to do when you go back in time. How will you stop it?”
“I'm trying to figure that out as well...” I said, looking down. I blinked and I was back under the shade of the tree.
Might as well head back.
I agree.
Yeah... let's go.
CHAPTER TWENTY FOUR: Nightmare
“Don't tell me you've forgotten. We both know how this is going to turn out.”
Tythol's voice echoed around the wave of the universe I was pulled into.
“I haven't forgotten my promise...”
“But when your child is born, you do realize it will only make this so much harder...”
“I know!” I huffed out.
“Why do you continue to badger me!”
Tythol's furious voice boomed around the area, causing me to cover my eyes with my hooves.
“DON'T YOU SEE? WHAT CHANCE DO YOU HAVE AGAINST MY BROTHER? HE SENT ME HERE, AND IT'S A PAIN IN THE FLANK TO BRING YOU HERE WITH ME! YOU ARE A FOOL IF YOU THINK YOU STAND A CHANCE AGAINST HIM! DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND?!”
“I FUCKING UNDERSTAND!” I roared.
“I'm going to tell you this right now. When Lace Danneggiato rose, he used YOUR power to fuel him. Once you found redemption, that power vanished and your soul became pure and at peace! Lace had no more power to contain himself in Equestria anymore! You defeated him out of pure luck! Not your power alone!”
“Luck?! What the hell are you talking about?!”
“We're not on the same page here, what I'm talking about is that your soul pured itself of it's hatred! If there was only the smallest speck of any negative feelings towards Princess Luna, Lace wouldn't have been defeated and you would have died for nothing!”
“Then it wasn't luck. It was willpower!” I retorted.
“That moment had half of those things...” Tythol grumbled those words, I felt the air around me vibrate at the tone of his deep voice.
“It seems everyone keeps mentioning to me about how I will have to travel back in time and stop Love, or whatever else saved me that day. I think I'll remember!”
“It's not that we don't trust you to remember and go back to stop him. It's if you will do so.”
“What?”
I woke up. I was back in my bed. Two days after my first encounter with Tythol.
I hate it when he does that.
Me too.
Let's just go on with our day, okay?
I went to check my mailbox. Yes, a letter... yet it didn't have any return address. I opened the letter. A simple sentence was scratched onto the paper.
“Meet Me In The Ever Free Forest.”
What should we do?
I think we should go...
Why? I don't even know who wrote this letter. I'm not going.
It could be important! Something to do with Tythol or Lace Danneggiato. I don't know, but I just have a feeling that this will refer to at least one of them.
Fine.
I began to the entrance of the Ever Free Forest. When I showed up, I looked around. Nothing. I heard a rustle and looked at a bush. Sharp red eyes glaring at me.
“Come...” the voice hissed. It was low and scratchy.
“Follow me.” It said, the eyes vanished, and a large black figure rose, shadowed by the darkness of the trees before him. It turned around and began down the path. It passed through a beam of sunlight... yet it was still shrouded in darkness.
“I said follow me.” It snapped. I jumped and followed the creature. When we reached an open plain, the shadow vanished to reveal tall wolf like creature standing on it's hind legs.
“You have heard of The Darkness, have you?” It asked.
“Yes...”
“My leader... Lace Danneggiato... after his rule ended, I became the new leader of The Darkness. For a long time they attempted to summon me, but to no avail. I was needed first, but The Darkness grew restless and attempted to summon me early. Fools.” It snarled.
“Who are you?” I asked. I felt strangely calm.
“I am known by many names... I am The Nightmare. Fused with the power of Lace Danneggiato and The Darkness to become your friends' worst nightmares. I have heard that you have been in contact with Tythol.”
“Yes, yes I have.” Why was I telling him all these things? Why was he telling me all these things?
“Our pasts are linked... that is why. We both share a common fate, corrupted by greed.” The Nightmare stretched out his palm, and a portal arrived with showings of The Lunar Events.
“Look closely.”
I continued to watch.
“Do you not see?”
I saw it. The Nightmare's gleaming red eyes... watching me.
“You've been watching me... this entire time?” I asked.
“To some degree.” The Nightmare responded, waving his large palm and dismissing the portal.
“You want to return to the past, and stop what you suspect to be love from saving you?”
“Yes.” I responded. I couldn't control myself! I was telling him things he shouldn't know!
“I will not use any of this information against you Dorchester.”
How did he know my name?
“You've grown stronger then any of us could have imagined. You continue to hold a piece of Lace inside of you. Why do you continue to deny that you will betray your friends and not go to the past?”
The Nightmare paused.
“We both know who you are, and what you did, and what you will do in the future. You will abandon your friends, just like they abandoned you.”
The Nightmare began to walk in circles around me.
“They have no abandoned me.” I huffed.
“Think about it. They could have done... so much more... so much more then just giving you food and water while you continue to stay here. You cheated death, and death does not like to be cheated. You can put everything behind you, if you can muster one final push. Into oblivion.”
I put my hoof on my chin.
“No.”
“Very well then. Begone.” The Nightmare snapped his fingers, and I was returned to the front of my home.
What just happened?
I don't know, but I think we should head back over to The Ever Free Forest.
Agreed.
I began to make my way back to The Ever Free Forest. Little did I know that a darker fate awaited.
CHAPTER TWENTY SIX: Goodnight Sweet Prince
“Ah, I see you're all here. Splendid!”
“Where are you?!”
“All around you!”
“Show yourself then!”
“My pleasure.”
Breaking Dawn turned to me.
“You ready?” He asked.
“You kidding? I was born ready!” I changed into Xaxas.
“Ah, Dorchester, it's nice to see you again.”
The Nightmare formed into his cloud.
“A cloud? What happened?” I asked grinning.
“Oh, I won't be using this form to fight. My bad.” The cloud slowly descended and became his wolf form. He towered over the rest of us.
“How do you like me now?” He slipped forward and knocked me back.
“Gah!” I exclaimed as I was thrown back.
“And that was just a start.” The Nightmare grinned. He snapped his fingers and rose into the air.
“You can choose to fight me, or The Darkness. That's right Dorchester, we're taking that risk.”
I snorted.
“You kidding?” I laughed.
“I kicked their sorry asses! I'll do it again!”
“Very well.”
The Darkness began to arrive and approach us. Before I knew it, large vines shot out of the ground and killed all of them.
“AHA! You call that a challenge?” Vinetion smirked.
“No, that was just a warm up. Now, we can really begin. I'll give you a small chance. Send forth your best fighters. After I deal with them, I'll deal with the rest of you.”
Everyone left me, Darksteel Edge, Violent Inferno, Breaking Dawn, Vinetion, and me alone with The Nightmare. He smiled, showing his long sharp yellow teeth.
“Really? That's your best? This is going to be easier than I thought.”
“You underestimate us! You'll be very sorry if you do.”
“I'm not worried in the least.” The Nightmare continued to smile. “Hey Lance, you know what I'm going to do when I've won?”
“I don't care, because I know you're not going to win.”
He still smiled... reminded me a lot of Killer Jeff.
“I'm going to kill your family, and I'll take extra time on your wife!” He snarled.
“Lance don-!” I was pushed back as I tried to barricade Lance as he shot forward at The Nightmare.
“YOU BASTARD!”
“No Lance! He's trying to get you close to him!” Darksteel yelled out.
But it was too late. Lance had already sprung forward and was now pounding on The Nightmare. When he finished, Lance backed up.
“My turn.” The Nightmare sneered as he twisted his neck, popping it a few times.
The Nightmare blasted Lance back, that was enough for me to see. I charged at The Nightmare, but he caught me and grabbed my neck.
“Oh, little Dorchester... such promise... in such a weak body!” He roared as I was flung back like a pebble. My head slammed into a tree, but I was able to get up and shake off the pain.
“Not... Today...”
I went after him again, but Darksteel beat me to it. He began to work on Nightmare, and was soon joined by Killjoy. But both failed as The Nightmare tossed them like tooth picks. The Nightmare was then knocked back unexpectedly but a large vine.
“Not so tough now, are you!” Vinetion boasted.
“Nice try.” One of The Nightmare's claws slashed the vine with ease, and he grabbed Vinetion.
“Ah, now I remember you.”
“What do you mean?!” Vinetion gasped out.
The Nightmare disposed of her quickly. Violent Inferno and I where the last two left. The Nightmare raised his hand and pointed at me.
“Play time.” He snapped as I was slashed across the face. Blood splattered everywhere as I fell at least ten feet behind Violent Inferno. When I forced myself up, I just fell to the ground, unable to fight for much longer.
“No one hurts my friends.”
“I just did.”
Before Nightmare continued, he was suddenly attacked by Violent Inferno.
“You're a tough one, aren't you?!”
“YEP!”
I watched as Breaking Dawn regained his footing and joined Violent Inferno.
“You get him?”
“No.”
“Hmmmm, you are tougher than the others. No matter.”
He grinned at Lance, why? My question was answered when Nightmare bounced forward, aiming for Breaking Dawn. But he was intercepted as Violent Inferno bumped Breaking Dawn out of the way, and a sickening slicing sound pierced the air. Violent Inferno had been slashed. Bad.
“I knew that would work...”
“You asshole! You used me as bait!”
“No! Lance...!” I gasped out. But Breaking Dawn had already begun his assault. Nightmare easily countered, sending Breaking Dawn far back. I could see Alexander watching.
“Oh man, he doesn't look that good!”
Cody appeared.
“Why do you always get your self hurt?”
Twilight ran up to Lance and kneeled down to him. I suddenly thought of Silvermoon, I wasn't going to die! Not today at least!
“Stop your talking and fight! Or, I could just attack you all right now!” Nightmare growled.
Lance glanced around.
“Guys, just do your best to distract him.”
“That, I can do. Come on Cody.”
“I may not want to kill, but I can fight at least!”
What I saw next made me grin.
“Not today...” I snarled.
“I love you.”
“I love you too. Don't worry, give me ten minutes and I'll have you up and ready to fight again.”
Lance smiled at Twilight.
“Thanks Twi.”
I saw Cody and Alexander work their way down on Nightmare. Impressive portal shots had been fired and it seemed we had got him weakened a bit. But I was wrong.
“Any last words!”
“Fuck you...”
Nightmare bared his fangs, and sank them into Cody's shoulder, ripping it, tearing muscles and tendons.
“Get off of him!” Alexander yelled. He bucked Nightmare in the side, but he didn't move. He let go of Cody and glared at Alexander.
“You're a pest!”
“I know.”
More impressive- fuck! Nightmare caught Alexander by the face!
“No...” I groaned as I attempted to stand up straight.
“ALEXANDER!” Trixie had appeared, but Drax and Octavia fought her back.
“Who's next?!”
“I AM!” Darksteel yelled, he slammed his horn into Nightmare's back. His long horn breached his back and popped out his chest.
“Rule number one, don't forget where your enemy is!”
“I didn't forget. I was merely waiting.” Nightmare's body began to move around Darksteel's horn. He put Darksteel in a headlock.
“Rule number two of fighting, never stab a creature made of dark magic.”
Nightmare raised his claw and slashed it across Darksteel's horn, cutting it clean off near the base. Darksteel Edge turned back into Frederic as he screamed out in pain.
“Nighty night Prince Frederic.”
Frederic began to thrash around, choking. He soon ran out of breath and passed out from lack of air. His limp body released onto the ground.
“Next?” Nightmare asked with a grin.
“Okay then, I'll just pick.”
He began to approach us. He winked at me with an evil grin. When he approached us, he suddenly turned around, and grabbed me by the neck.
“I won't let you hurt The Master...” He snarled.
I gagged for air. Memories began to swirl around my head, memories of My Favorite, The Return, The Banishment, and Corruption.
“Not today you soon of a bitch!” I gagged out, and slammed my bottom hooves into Nightmare's chest. He flew back. I grabbed my neck, choking for air.
“Very well then.” He began to approach us again with an evil smile on his face.
CHAPTER TWENTY SEVEN: The Final Curtain Call
“I said. Who's next?!” Nightmare challenged.
I looked over to my side, I could see Lance trying to get up with Twilight standing over him. The scene before me broke my heart.
“No Lance, please, stay down. You're not healed properly yet!”
“Ha ha ha ha! Really? You're still going to try and fight me?”
“No, I'm going to fight you!”
Omnius has appeared and slammed into Nightmare, knocking him back.
“Pathetic.” Nightmare spat as he slammed Omnius off him, sending him skidding back.
“Now, to finish you off.” Nightmare bared his fangs, and roared. Yet no sound emitted from his mouth, but Mr. Bleak and Omnius fled to the ground, covering their ears and closing their eyes.
“What did... you do...” I asked.
“Just making them relive their worst nightmares, but with much more detail and effects. By the time they even move, your bodies will be scattered around them, what a sight to wake up to!” Nightmare boasted.
I watched the entire scene fold out. The rest of the bronies going after Nightmare, getting their asses handed to them. I saw Twilight healing Lance.
“Two minutes Lance.”
“Ah, a punching bag.”
POW
CRACK
“Just a few more to go, then I can begin the real fun!”
“Don't hurt your...”
“Do what you want.”
“Did I win?”
I was able to force myself up, and Lance got up as well.
“If he's still alive... we will fight him. Together.” I said.
“Yes.” Lance nodded. A large claw appeared out of the crater.
“Ah, I see you're still able to fight. Let's get this over with, I'm itching to slowly kill your family.”
Lance became Breaking Dawn, I was still in Xaxas form.
“Not today.” We speared forward, knocking Nightmare back. Nightmare reared up, slamming his claws into my face, but not for long. I summoned my wing tenticles which wrapped around his body. Surprised, Nightmare released me, while Lance came up behind him and began to pound on Nightmare's back. After a few seconds, Nightmare grew tired of our domination.
“ENOUGH!” Nightmare roared, a deafening boom sent me and Lance back. Lance got up, screaming in agony.
“Why? Why are you so persistent? Just give up, accept faith. I'm going to kill you and your friends, and there's nothing you can do.”
I watched, my body as heavy as the sun. At least that's what I felt like. I felt myself weaken even more as Xaxas slowly faded.
NO!
We where so close! I could feel it!
I watched in horror, unable to move.
“I have a purpose, a reason to fight. I will not let you hurt my friends, or family, anymore. We're going to end this, here and now.”
Nightmare smiled.
“That's what I like to hear.” He turned to face me.
“Realize, after I'm done with Lance, I will make you watch as I kill your wife as well.”
“No... I won't let you...”
“Accept the truth. You cannot win.” He was unexpectedly bucked in the side of the face by Lance, who retaliated by swiping his claw across Lance's face. Lance held his bionic eye in his hoof as it dangled out of his eye socket.
Nightmare was encased in a bright purple light.
“Really? You should know that most magic is useless against me. That pest over there only got lucky.” Nightmare broke free of Twilight's grasp and charged at her. He grabbed her neck, and lifted her.
“Now, what should I cut off first?”
Lance slammed into Nightmare's back, he dropped Twilight who hit the ground with a yelp and jumped back.
“What are you doing?!”
“I love you Twilight, with all my heart. Always remember that.”
Is he...
NO!
He can't activate the self destruction right now!
“Lance! No...” I gasped out.
“What do you mean?”
“Twilight, you've made my life worth living. I'll always remember...”
“NO!” Me and Twilight yelled at the same time.
“You know what? I'll just kill her while your back there.”
“Twilight! Please, you have to teleport me and him to that mountain top!”
“I CAN'T DO THAT TO YOU!”
“Trixie, please, teleport me to that mountain top!”
“NO!” Twilight cried out.
Nightmare sighed.
“Emotions, I'll never figure them out. You, Dorchester, should know that very well.”
“Hurry!”
“Lance! NO!”
“Twilight! I'll always love you! And Dorchester! Do what is right!” Lance yelled out. Nightmare and Lance vanished, I turned my head over to the mountain top. A few seconds passed...
There was a sudden blast, and smoke covered the top of the mountain.
“No... Lance... Don't... leave...” Tears flowed from my eyes as I watched the smoke slowly vanish.
“LANCE!” Twilight cried out.
I forced myself up.
He left so much behind... his family... his home... his future... his entire life.
“I WON'T LET IT END LIKE THIS!” I transformed into Xaxas, and teleported myself up to the wrecked mountain top. I began to search around for any sign of Lance.
“Lance! Where are you?!”
“Lance? Lance!”
“Don't go! Lance!”
“Lance...”
Cough cough
“You...” I sneered. Nightmare was laying on his back, chuckling to himself.
“You little pest... I merely await my death. Will you spare this life, forever damned to a merciful passing?” Nightmare coughed up blood.
“Tell me one thing before I kill you...” I demanded, slamming my hoof into Nightmare's chest, causing more blood to erupt from his mouth.
“What?”
“When will he rise?” I hissed.
“Who?” Nightmare raised his eyebrow.
“You know very well who I'm talking about!”
“All will be revealed in due time.”
“TELL ME NOW!” My voice echoed through the mountain.
“Lace will rise... when you finally come to face the truth.”
“I'm not killing you until you tell me! That or pass through a painful death! One that I will make worse if you don't tell me!”
“Oh Dorchester, you where never the brightest soul. But I will tell you this. Life is a curse... we are all Tythol's puppets... cursed to run through this land. Where humans tread, pain, sorrow, hate, anger, and war are sure to follow. Forever is the curse of mankind. Forever is your destiny, and the destruction you leave behind your wake.”
“Shut the fuck up with the speeches! TELL ME!”
“The answer lies within yourself. Don't let what was in the past, come to the future.” Nightmare coughed again, and died with my hoof on his chest.
“WHAT?!” I set Nightmare's body aflame and left it lying, burning on the mountain top. I returned to my house, calming down enough to get rid of my Xaxas form.
“Twilight sent me a tear stained letter about what happened... I'm so sorry.” Silvermoon said, wrapping herself around me.
“No... it wasn't your fault... it wasn't anyone's fault...” I released myself and went out onto the balcony.
“Anyone but mines.”
Seems I made a mistake in translation, Corrupted Light is actually the English translation of Luce Danneggiato, not Lace Danneggiato. But let's just change it from Lace Danneggiato to Luce Danneggiato.
CHAPTER TWENTY EIGHT: Brink of Corruption
I opened the door to my house and slammed it behind me. Silvermoon noticed my tear streaked face, mixed with blood and mud.
“Oh my god! What happened?!”
“We defeated Nightmare... but Lance died with him. You know his bionic eye?”
Silvermoon looked at me with shock.
“Y-Yes...”
“It had a self destruct option, which Lance used to defeat Nightmare. I went looking for his body, but I couldn't find anything. I did get Nightmare to tell me when Luce will rise... but it didn't make any sense. It was a waste of time.”
“I'm so sorry!” Silvermoon grasped me. I sighed.
“Lance told me to do what was right... I know what he meant.”
“You've always done the right thing.”
“No, I haven't. I've done terrible things... but I've put it behind me.”
“I love you Dorchester.”
“I love you too Silvermoon.”
Moments passed.
“I'm going to go talk to King Horus.” I separated myself from Silvermoon.
“Go.” She said.
I transported myself to King Horus. He was looking at the stained glass window.
“I've been told from Frederic of your victory, but at the same time your great loss.”
“Know that it wasn't anyone's fault. He chose to make the sacrifice that saved us all. He died for a greater good.”
Horus continued to stare at the now rain splattered windows.
“He brought us one step closer to defeating Luce.”
Something inside me snapped right then. I wasn't sure what.
“Is that all you care about?! Defeating Luce?! You are crazy if all you're worried about is fucking Luce!” I stomped my hoof.
“All I hear from you is Luce bullshit! Nothing else! It seems you care about stopping him more than you do anything else!”
King Horus had stopped his glances at the windows and was now focusing on me. Looking completely calm.
“Luce this, Luce that, is that all you ever fucking cared about?! You summoned me constantly, and who knows how many times more you'll do it to remind me that I have to go and let myself die! You're immortal! You can't die! You're the entire fucking package!”
“Screw you Horus! If all you're going to do is bitch and whine about your father dying, and your damned uncle coming out again, why don't you kill him again! You'd only be two ponies short!”
I breathed heavily as I saw King Horus's eyes flare.
“Tythol's banishment, and my wife's death was a tragic loss.”
“If I was able to put my past behind me, why can't you?! Forget it! Fuck Luce! Fuck Tythol, fuck the promise, and most importantly, fuck you!” I stormed out without letting Horus getting a word out.
“Dorchester! Wait!” I saw Luna coming towards me.
“Get away from me!!” I roared, slamming my hoof into the ground, causing a shockwave to emit and slam Luna back a few yards. She looked up at me in surprise.
“Leave. Me. ALONE!” I hissed.
“Dorchester...”
“Shut up! I'm not going back to save the universe! Fuck it! I hate this! This stress, Lance dying, everything! God forbid I go through anymore of this bullshit! Fuck you Luna! Fuck you!” I turned around, and kicked dirt up in Luna's direction, and stormed off once again. I reached the cliff, in front of me lay the Great Whirlpool. Luce was supposed to rise here.
“You hear all of that?! You reptilian shitty bastard! I give up! Come back! I give up! I don't care anymore! Do you hear me you fucking pri-”
“ENOUGH!”
I turned around to see Tythol's image standing in front of me.
“What the hell do you think you're doing!?”
“Giving up, that's what I'm doing!”
I fired a bolt at Tythol's image, dispersing it.
“No more... enough of this... I'm done. I'm not doing anymore!” I heard crying in the distance. I walked towards it. When I arrived at the source I saw Spark, crying at the base of a large tree.
“Dad... no...”
“Spark...” I hissed.
“Huh? Dorchester...? Is that you?”
“Yes.” I responded.
“You... got the news,”
“*sniff* yeah...”
“Well... I can take all the pain away... if you just let me do one thing.”
Spark looked down.
“What do you mean?”
Dorchester! Don't do it!
Think about Twilight! Think about Equestria! Think about the universe!
Don't do it! You can't! You put the past behind you!
Fuck you guys! I'm going back. Back to doing what I should have done long ago!
I raised my hoof, black fire began to swirl around it as Spark gawked at it. He suddenly realized what I planned to do. My wing tentacles shot out, wrapping around Spark's body.
“NO! Let me go!”
“DORCHESTER!” Mr. Bleak slammed down onto the ground.
“If it isn't Spark's little guardian angle? Such a shame you are late to the party!” I brought my hoof down onto Spark's face, slamming him.
“AAH!” He screamed.
Bleak ran towards me, I waved my hoof, and a large group of The Darkness appeared in front of me.
“No!” Bleak yelled.
“Break him.”
The group of Darkness went onto slamming onto Bleak.
“I'm tired of everyone reminding me of how I have to let myself die! How do you think that makes me feel? Do you think it makes me feel GOOD? Do you think it makes me feel PROUD? Wouldn't it be so easy just to kill myself right here on the spot instead? Leave you and the universe to burn under Luce's power? Is that what I should do?!”
I opened my eyes, I stood in front of the Great Whirlpool. I had just envisioned myself becoming evil again... no... I wasn't going to let that happen. At least that part.
“Dorchester?”
I turned around.
“Lance?”
Time to make this story more... interesting. I've been playing too much Godzilla: Unleashed.
CHAPTER THIRTY: The First Sign
2 Days after the encounter with Nightmare and Lance's return...
“Attention all residents of Canterlot and Ponyville! A massive monster has been detected rising from The Great Whirlpool inside of Everfree Forest, while we do not know which city it decides to attack, Royal Guards have been posted all around the supposed area of contact including a large group at The Great Whirlpool to at least weaken the monster. We advise all ponies to retreat to their homes for shelter!”
I turned off the radio. Looking outside, I could see a birds eye view of Everfree Forest. Sure enough, something massive was attempting to climb out of the swirling water vortex.
“What do you plan to do?” Silvermoon asked me.
“Fight whatever comes through it. That's what. Gather Lance, Omnius, Peter, Frederic, Vinetion, Anarchy, and Discord. We're going to fight that thing... whatever it was.”
I watched as the beast slowly (and I mean REALLY slowly) rose from the whirlpool. Silvermoon conjured up copies of the same note and sent them all. In a few moments, everyone who got the letter appeared.
“I suggest you've all heard the news?” I said, pointing my head towards the overview.
“Yeah, we all heard it.” Anarchy said, floating next to Discord.
“I am sensing an unbelievable amount of chaos magic emitting from The Great Whirlpool. Not even I have enough power to have summoned a beast that large.” Discord said worringly.
“I think we all know who to blame then.”
“Luce.” We all said together.
“Tell us more Discord.” Lance said, we all looked at Discord.
“I've been around since The Beginning, boy, and trust me, I've seen and recorded every combination of chaos magic around. No more, no less. This is something I've never seen before. Clearly from a different world.”
“Anything else?” Omnius asked.
“What I do know, is that it's going to take all of us to take it down, and by the looks of it...” Discord squinted, looking at the rising beast.
“That attempt could take awhile.”
There was a sudden earthquake.
“Earthquake!” Vinetion yelled. We all covered our heads.
“It's not too big! But it's not too small either! That monster must be causing it!” Discord yelled over the defeaning smashing and rumbling.
“Let's go! Silvermoon! Stay out of the house! Don't go under anything in case another earthquake decides to show up!” I yelled.
“Okay! Got it!” Silvermoon responded.
“Anarchy! Take us to the whirlpool!”
“Already on it!”
We were suddenly whisked away. When I opened my eyes we're all in front of The Great Whirlpool. Something about the monster seemed... familiar.
“Hey! What are you doing here? Dorchester?!” Bleak had shown up with the guards.
“We came over here to fight. Maybe we could kill it.” Discord said, walking up to Bleak.
“Well... I don't like the idea... but we can try.”
The earth trembled again. Tree's began to fall, we all looked at the whirlpool, massive tentacles shot out. The end of them looked like Venus Fly Traps. I gasped. I knew what we were facing.
“Biollante!” I screamed.
“Bioll-what?” Peter yelled.
“Biollante! This bitch is crazy! Whatever you do, stay clear of her mouth, you never know when she'll spray you with acid!”
“Gah! The amount of chaos magic, it's giving me a headache!” Discord yelled out, pounding his head.
“Me too!” Anarchy responded.
“It's Luce Danneggiato! He brought Biollante here! If I'm not mistaken, she's bigger than Godzilla!”
“You're kidding!” Frederic gasped.
“I'm not.” I nervously smiled.
“Prepare for an ambush! Biollante is a plant monster, so be careful with your vines Vinetion!”
“I will!”
I saw Frederic become Darksteel Edge, Peter became Violent Inferno, Lance became Breaking Dawn, and I transformed into Xaxas.
“You know what they say, plants are no match for fire!” Breaking Dawn said.
“Just don't let her get too close to you, Biollante has got three forms.”
“THREE?!” Breaking Dawn looked at me in surprise.
“Each form is more powerful than the last I'm guessing.” Violent Inferno looked at me. I nodded.
“This is it's first form? The amount of chaos energy is enough to at least cause an eruption which would wipe out all life within two thousand yards!” Discord said.
“I can feel it to! Just hang in there!” Anarchy said.
Discord looked at Anarchy, still holding his head. “I'll try!”
Biollante had almost fully risen. It's first form was tall, with a massive rose as it's head with pale yellow like jaws in the middle that represented the bud of the flower. It's body was a tangled mess of soaked vines, roots, and a million other types of plants. The jaw opened it's mouth and roared. The ground shook.
“Everyone ready?” I gazed around, everyone was in a battle stance, ready to begin.
“Alright, on the count of three!”
Breaking Dawn stretched his neck, making small popping noises.
“One!”
The base of Darksteel Edge's hooves began to smoke, and had begun to emit flames.
“Two!”
Discord shook his head, letting go of it with his claws. Preparing himself.
“THREE!”
I had a lot of fun with this chapter.
CHAPTER THIRTY ONE: Biollante's Rose
“THREE!”
I shot up behind Darksteel Edge, we approached the jaw and pummeled it.
“Look out!” Anarchy yelled. A massive fly trap tentacle had swiped Darksteel Edge off to the side before I could catch up to him, it was up to me now. I summoned my energy and pounded three of it's teeth out. Biollante roared in anger and agony.
“Have this you son of a bitch!” I yelled, slamming my flaming hoof onto Biollante's jaw, knocking more teeth out. The jaw began to sink inside of the flower, some sort of retreat. I began to look for Darksteel Edge, he was slowly getting up. Once he regained his footing, he was back and looking like nothing had happened.
I flew down, catching one of the tentacles unexpected, slamming it's neck into the ground. The ground shook as we all heard Biollante's muffled roars. I felt myself get tied up.
“HELP!” I cried as the tentacle began to become tighter, blowing breath out of my lungs.
“You look wet! Have some heat to dry you off you overgrown rose!” Discord yelled, throwing a ball of flame at the tentacle, it screeched and released me.
“Thanks,” I said, catching my breath.
Discord gave me the thumbs up. The ground trembled again. I heard a cracking sound.
“The ground is beginning to split apart!” Omnius said as he was attacking what seemed like an unlimited amount of tentacles.
Omnius was right, the ground was cracking as Biollante tried to move forward. I heard her roar, this time clearer. The jaw had reappeared!
“Peter, Lance, Frederic, with me! We must strike together to bring her down!”
Lance and Frederic showed up, Peter began to fly towards us but was caught by one of the tentacles and was slammed down onto the ground.
“Not so fast!” Frederic said, he pierced the tentacle with his horn, splitting it in half.
“You okay Peter?” Frederic asked.
“Yeah, just caught me off guard.”
“C'mon, let's get this over with.”
“Yeah.”
Frederic and Peter joined us. Our hooves ignited and we flew towards Biollante's jaw, our hooves connected as one and Biollante roared in pain. She fell back, her stomach began to expand and some glowing ball began to tear at her plant skin.
“She's transforming! Remember to stay away from her mouth! She'll turn you into liquid if you're caught in her acid!”
“Guards! Look out!” Bleak yelled as a much larger tentacle smashed down upon the group of them.
“NO!”
“And the first form was a pain in the ass!” Breaking Dawn yelled over the sound of the whirlpool, Biollante's roars, and the ground splitting from under us. I looked down to see Vinetion summoning vine after vine, trying to get to higher ground as the ground collapsed.
“Vinetion!” I dived forward, scooping her up on my back.
“Thanks Dorchester.” She said.
“Uh... guys?” Peter said. I had seen what made him surprised. Biollante had finished her transformation. She now had a head with large thorns pointing out of the sides of her mouth. Two on top, one of bottom on both sides of her mouth. Her eyes flared red as four much larger fly trap tentacles rose. Two behind her, two in front.
Discord looked up, clearly worried by the size of Biollante. “I don't like the odds of this...”
Anarchy punched his shoulder. “C'mon, it'll be fun!”
Discord sighed. “I guess you're right.”
Biollante opened her mouth, massive yellow teeth lined every inch of her gums. The interior of her mouth even had spiking yellow teeth!
“She's gonna release the load! Evasive action!”
Biollante's mouth began to spew neon green acid. Vinetion held tightly on my back.
I turned my head a bit to face her. “Vinetion! Put your head down!”
“ANARCHY! NO!” Discord screamed. I turned my head over to see Anarchy get hit on the side of the face with acid. She lost her focus and fell down into the whirlpool.
“You over sized piece of green shit! I'll tear your roots from under you and send you to Tartarus!” Discord roared.
“Dorchester! We need to go and save her! I can see her! As long as Biollante covers the eye of the whirlpool with her body, we can save Anarchy!”
I thought for a moment. “Everyone! Distract Biollante! I'll go in after Anarchy!”
“You're crazy if you think I'm not coming with you!” Discord glared at Biollante and then at me.
“We'll do whatever we can!” Omnius yelled as he battled one of the four larger tentacles. Discord and I shot down into the war.
“Hold your breath!”
We plunged into the water. I could see the dark outline of Anarchy's body. Something was emitting from the side of her dark face... the acid had burned the side of her head!
“She's going to bleed out if we don't save her soon!” Discord spoke through my mind like Xax and Xas did.
“Then let's go already!” I responded. We swam through the onslaught of swirling waves. I could see her face clearly now.
“Anarchy!” Discord gasped. He suddenly shot forward and scooped her up. He shot out of the water.
“You're fucking welcome you prick!”
I shot up to see Biollante firing more acid at the group. So far no one seemed hurt.
I summoned flames to swirl around my hoof. But then I got a better idea.
“Everyone who can use magic! Drench Biollante in water as much as you can! Discord! Get over here!”
Discord appeared in front of me. Holding Anarchy close to his chest. He looked scared and worried.
“Hurry.” He hissed.
“Dorchester, what are you doing?” Vinetion asked me nervously.
“Discord, teach me a freezing spell, and fast! If I freeze Biollante, I could possibly stop her from changing into her second form. Trust me, you don't want to see it!”
Discord shook his head in disbelief, “You're going to FREEZE her? A victim that big no less!”
“Just tell me the god damn freezing spell!”
Silvermoon's POV
I walked nervously around the plaza. My heart pounding as I waited for Dorchester to return. The radio suddenly buzzed again.
“We have new intelligence that the guards that held their position in front of The Great Whirlpool have been killed in action. But we have some others fighting off the beast. I pray to Celestia that they live through this.”
I gulped... Oh Dorchester... please come back safe...
Dorchester's POV
“Is that it?” I asked.
“Yeah, yet you may be knocked out for a bit... now I need to get Anarchy back to the castle... I just hope she's okay.” Discord vanished in a puff of smoke. I looked back to see Biollante's body covered in massive amounts of water. I summoned all my strength, my horn began to glow sky blue. I shot the freezing spell with every bit of strength I had in my body. It hit Biollante, and slowly began to engulf her body.
“Dorchester!” Lance gasped as I fell down, out cold. He caught me and Vinetion and laid my body on the ground. Vinetion set herself on the ground. Biollante was now trying to move away from the ice that seemed to never stop growing. After a few minutes her entire body was in cased in one massive block of solid ice. Even The Great Whirlpool had stopped moving.
“Is he going to be okay?” Peter came down.
Bleak had landed and was now approaching the group. “That was a massive freezing spell. I'm not surprised he passed out.”
“Do you think I'm done?!”
Frederic's head shot up. “Who was that?!”
“Do you think such a spell can destroy such an amazing beast such as myself?! You know no such thing as power! You have done nothing! I will tear your kingdom apart!”
Ear splitting cracks erupted from the frozen body of Biollante. The top of Biollante's head that was frozen in ice shattered. Massive shards of ice directed themselves at the group.
“LOOK OUT!” Omnius roared. He picked up Dorchester's body and dodged massive spires of ice. The others did the same.
“I speak through this mortal shell! Plagam Extremam Infligere! I will inflict eternal pain upon your world!”
The glass broken, shattering hundreds if spikes of ice to sink into the groups skin. A smaller tentacle rose up and grasped Vinetion around brought her up to Biollante's face.
“Vinetion... Daughter of The Forest... do you think me so weak? That's what your parents thought! Your past is shrouded in mist that will never clear!” Biollante threw a stunned Vinetion to the ground.
Lance faced Bleak. “What the hell is going on?!”
Omnius approached Lance.
“Luce is speaking through Biollante. It was his plan all along, to communicate with us.”
“My, my. Aren't you a smart little one? Have you finally put the pieces of the puzzle in the right place? I brought Biollante here for one purpose! Vinetion holds power that I must have! You stand no chance against me!”
“You'll have to go through me first!”
“Who was th- AAAAGH!”
King Horus had speared his horn across Biollante's chest, making blood splatter across the cliff.
“If I killed you once, I can do it again!”
“Ah, my nephew... Horus... it's so good to see you again. How has the family been? Do you still miss your puny wife? The one I destroyed so long ago?!”
Vines shot out of the ground, and wrapped themselves around everyone. Vinetion was brought closer to Biollante.
“You will give me your power... and then I will make you watch as I make this world burn to ashes!”
Vinetion began to struggle, she tried to shoot a vine at Biollante, it turned around and plunged it's spike into Vinetion's chest, absorbing her powers.
“Yes... yes... so much power in such a weak, mortal, being! The final shred of light fades for your dear old universe, and with it, your pitiful mortal existence!”
“Let... gah... go of me!” Vinetion gasped.
“I never understood why people said that, as if they would let them go...” Biollante sneered and threw Vinetion onto the ground, completely stripping her of her powers.
“Now you bow...”
The vines around everyone began to put them into a bowing position.
“Might as well get used to it, you'll be doing it for the rest of your lives!”
“No... they... won't... I... won't... LET YOU! ”
I shot up, blasting Biollante with a massive ball of white hot fire. The flames blasted Biollante's chest, melting the powerful plant like body.
“Fools! Without this body, you have just released chaos into my domain! Vinetion's powers are no more! Her magic serves my cause now!”
Luce's voice slowly faded after his sentence, wild laughter could be heard as the body of Biollante dispersed into the air.
Vinetion stumbled to regain her footing. “Great, no powers... now I'm a regular earth pony!”
I walked towards her.
“I used to be an earth pony. Maybe we can get Greg to give you a horn.”
Vinetion snickered. “I've never liked those things. In fact, I've never really liked Greg. No way I'm getting one of those things.”
Bleak interrupted us by walking in between us.
“Dorchester, Luce Danneggiato now has stored enough power to send monsters completely out of our own universe. You do realize what this means?”
I nodded sadly. “The time has almost come...”
I remembered Silvermoon. My foal wasn't even born yet! It's only been a few months!
I noticed King Horus skulking off. I ignored Bleak and went towards him.
“Uhh... thanks.”
He turned his head towards me.
“I saw the entire scene. I wasn't going to let anything harm you... yet it seems I was too late.”
“Yeah...”
“I've been thinking.” King Horus walked closer to The Great Whirlpool.
“I've been a little... unfair to you lately. If your time is limited on this planet, I won't call you over and waste whatever time you have left by badgering you about the promise you made.”
I smiled. “Thanks.” I changed back into my normal form.
Horus faced me and smiled back. “Go, I will tell the others to return home. Your wife misses you.”
A bright light engulfed me and I in front of Silvermoon.
“Dorchester!” She gasped and wrapped her arms around me.
“I was so worried!”
“Everything's fine.” I lied. I didn't want to scare Silvermoon about Vinetion's powers being taken away along with what happened to Annabel.
Silvermoon smiled. “Well, the earthquake's weren't as bad as you thought they would be, so the house hasn't been damaged at all!”
I clapped my hooves together. “That's great!”
Silvermoon stroked my side with her tail. “Now, time for your reward...”
It's sexy time for Dorchester!
I will never understand men and their craving for sex...
You represent our softer side, oddly enough it makes that side a female... females don't crave the awesome pleasure that is sex as much as us manly men do!
I'm just going to stay quiet for this entire thing.
Me and Silvermoon walked into the house, and up the stairs. Time for the best reward I've ever gotten.
CHAPTER THIRTY TWO: A New Monster
Nightmare gulped nervously. “At least we got Vinetion's power...”
Luce turned around, his massive body twisting and his pure red slit eyes glaring. “At least?! Don't you mean at most?! Biollante only killed the guards! I wanted one of the main dead!”
Nightmare cringed at his masters outrage.
“If there is anything I can do my lord...”
“Go find me another monster! One bigger, and more powerful!” Luce snapped.
“But my lord... I am not powerful enough to return to Equestria.”
“Not a beast in Equestria, a beast from human fiction! One much more powerful than that pitiful Biollante!”
Nightmare sighed, nodding his head. “As you wish, my lord.”
Nightmare vanished in a puff of smoke.
Nightmare's POV
I scanned the earth around me. Everything was in ruins, hundreds of volcano's stretched as far as I could see. Such destruction... made me want to cry in happiness. But I had a job to do, and I wasn't going to let my master down. I began to walk down the beaten road, looking for anything that could take me closer to a more powerful monster. Hours passed and I still couldn't think of anything.
“Might as well try it,” I mumbled quietly to myself. I snapped my fingers, transporting myself into the history books. I scanned the pages, looking for anything. That's when I saw it.
I grinned. “Perfect...”
I returned to Luce after ripping the piece of paper off of the book.
No One's POV
Luce growled deep within his throat. “I assume you found something.”
“Yes my lord,” Nightmare bowed, and gave Luce the paper. He levitated it in front of him, scanning the print.
“Are you sure this will work? It's much smaller than Biollante.”
“I am positive my lord.”
Luce sighed. “Then summon it. I don't care if The Great Whirlpool is destroyed, it means nothing to me now.”
“But my lord... summoning that big of a creature... can't you do it? Summoning Biollante only took a small bit of your power! I observed as Discord complained of it having so much chaos energy! Think about how easier it will be! I could die if this monster takes so much of my power to fuel itself!”
“You WILL summon the beast!” Luce hissed, putting his face against Nightmare's. His pitch black eyes, centered with his red slit pupil poured into Nightmare's own soul.
Nightmare knew it was no good arguing with Luce. “Yes my lord.” He sighed, and began to summon one of the most feared monsters in all of history.
Luce watched as it formed.
Luce gasped. “It's... amazing!” He grinned as he watched the massive beast slithered it's way through the portal to Equestria. To The Great Whirlpool.
Luce looked down to see Nightmare, gasping for air. Luce breathed out a black cloud, which refueled Nightmare.
“That monster's story dates so far back... that no human in the last one hundred billion years knew about it.” Nightmare gasped out.
“Interesting. I can't wait to see how this will play out.”
What do you think the monster will be?
This is the final chapter of Bliss. The first story of the Revelation's series. Just like The Lunar Events, Dorchester's Requiem will have several stories. But who knows when the next installment will come out?
FINAL CHAPTER: The Truth
I was joined with Lance, Vinetion, Frederic, Peter, Bleak, and Discord. We had come together to discuss our plan for the days to come until Luce returned.
“I think I have come up with a theory to why that Biollante appeared so soon after Luce's first defeat at the hooves of Dorchester.” King Horus turned around to face all of us as we sat on the chairs in the empty royal guard mess hall.
Discord raised an eyebrow. “And that would be?”
“To summon Biollante, seeing as powerful in both chaos magic and dark magic Luce is, he would need at least four hundred times that much power to rise from his prison. Including the power he would need to take his revenge.”
The room feel silent.
“You're kidding...” Lance's bionic eye focused.
“I am not. If Luce was able to summon such a powerful monster with such a short percent of his power...”
Horus gulped nervously.
“Then when he rises. All could be lost.”
I slammed my hoof on the table, outraged. “NO!” I shouted. Everyone turned their heads to face me.
I scanned the room.
“I will not let him have a chance.”
I was going to regret saying this. But I wasn't going to let anything hold me back.
“I will stay in this world. Until my foal is born. Only then will I go back. I just want to see the...”
I stopped, sitting back down and covering my face with my hooves. Sobbing.
“I just want to see...”
King Horus stepped forward. “Say no more. You can change your mind when the time comes.”
“NO!” I roared, looking up.
“No matter what happens! If you have to drag me kicking and screaming! Even if it takes you until AFTER Luce corrupts this universe... YOU WILL TAKE ME BACK!”
Discord approached me.
“D, don't say these things.”
I glared at Discord, my eyes flaming. I felt myself differ from the group. Like something was changing inside me. I spoke differently... Luce was speaking through me.
“His That plant beast was only the beginning!”
Luna jumped forward and wrapped herself around me.
“Dorchester, no! Come back to your senses!”
“Fool! You do not realize this is all your fault! Your corruption was because of ME! This is the truth that you cannot deny! I will tell you everything that happened. Luna's corruption, Dorchester's corruption, everything that gave a small amount of energy into creating this cursed present day!”
I shoved Luna off of me. I couldn't control myself!
We need to stop!
I-I can't!
We at least have to try! Come on!
“When this universe was created. My damned brother, Tythol created me so that I could help things stay balanced! I soon realized what power I possessed and used it against him! The new born universe trembled beneath our might! I defeated Tythol and sent him to the deepest waves of the universe. Yet he somehow still kept a connection, and weakened my dearly in the process of his defeat.”
“When Luna and Celestia were born, I couldn't help but notice something... interesting. Luna held some of my genes, how easy it was to corrupt her, and her greed for power. I kept in touch with Luna, and eventually convinced her to throw the world into never ending darkness! During the darkness, no one would notice me ripping the history books apart, rewriting everything the way I wanted it!”
“But Celestia defeated Luna, banishing her, along with my connection to her, to the moon! I had failed! Then came Dorchester... back then known as Ryan! It wasn't me that wanted him for Luna, but herself! I took control, forcing her to keep you in Equestria! Hoping that The Balance, the temporary force that represented Tythol, would soon take notice and throw everything into chaos! Without getting my wings dirty.”
“Then you somehow defeated us! Again! I had grown tired of these worthless attempts. I was the one who destroyed the humans world, knowing that Ryan would go to Equestria and take his weak revenge on Luna! When he had finally reached his breaking point, he turned and became nothing but a goody two shoes. My plan was ruined! But I was able to take Dorchester's bitter past and use it to fuel myself enough to rise from The Great Whirlpool!”
“As the final minutes passed by, the cursed boy redeemed himself! Throwing me into oblivion! I am finished with these puny attempts! This world will be in ruins when I return! Nothing will ever be peaceful! And when I return for the last time, I will destroy you! And Dorchester, I WILL MAKE YOU WATCH AS THIS UNIVERSE BURNS!”
I fell to the ground, Luce released his grip on me. I looked up to see horrified looks on everyone's faces. I felt like an outcast. I spun around and fled back to my house. I slammed the door open, running into my bedroom and shoving my face into the pillow. I cried myself to sleep that night.
All was revealed.
Luce had gotten into my head.
I was going to stay in my room.
Until Luce awakens.
I wasn't going to hurt anyone anymore...
Thus concludes Bliss, the next and final story, Brink, will end it all! Just like before Bliss, I will upload sneak peaks of Brink every now and again.
CHAPTER ELEVEN: I'm Tired
I stood before King Horus as he looked down upon me.
“You do realize that you've made it harder for you to turn away.”
I shuffled my hooves together.
“Why did you do it. Knowing that the day would come.”
I still looked down, ignoring King Horus's burning gaze.
“The day would come that you would leave, forever.”
“When I watched as Isiset died before me at the hands of Lace Danneggiato, I promised I would give everybody a chance at bliss. I watched as this world formed as one.”
“I never wanted this.” King Horus walked over to me as he said it.
“But I kept my promise.” I whispered.
“Yet with each passing day, it grows nearer and nearer.”
“It's as though you want me gone...” I said, I looked into Horus's eyes.
“I'm just reminding you of what your promise.”
He walked behind me. I was still staring at the ground.
“The promise, you may not keep.” Horus exited the room.
I stood alone in the throne room. I groaned in frustration and fell on the floor.
“I said I would go when the time comes. I will keep that promise.”
I heard someone coming closer, I looked up and saw Luna approaching me with a worried look on her face.
“What do you plan to do?” She asked.
“Live life like I was supposed to...” I replied with a sniff. I wasn't crying, I just had so many things going through my head.
“I want an exact time! Somewhere to stop! I want to know... I want to know when the time will come I will have to leave. What stopped me in the past?!” I cried out.
“I don't know Dorchester, but please, you need to rest. You're tired.” Luna helped me up, I sat back down.
“What stopped me from dying? I don't know! I have to know!” I yelled out, my voice echoed through the empty hallways.
“Dorchester... let me help you...” Luna held out her hoof.
“No... get away from me...” I pushed her hoof back, I looked into Luna's eyes, full of hurt.
“I didn't mean for any of this to happen...” I vanished, transporting myself back home so I wouldn't have to face Luna anymore. I slumped into bed and pulled the covers over me. I heard Silvermoon moan quietly as she reached out her hoof, and I took it in both of mine. I held it close to my heart, it beat slowly. I kept my eyes open until I passed out from being so tired... I was tired...
I was tired...
Inspired by the Left 4 Dead series, Dorchester must hold out against hundreds of mares and he attempts to survive The Heat! Will he succeed? Or will be become their personal “toy” for the rest of the day?
CHAPTER TWENTY: Heat Stroke Pt. 1
I barricaded the front door after making sure the back one was done with. Silvermoon was with me, as you hopefully know that pregnant ponies can go through Heat. If you don't know what Heat is, it's a day when all the mares become SUPER horny and chase after the first stallion they see, no matter who it is. Peter, David, Greg, Lance, and Frederic had joined me as well.
“Dude... this is just like Left 4 Dead...” Greg said, slumping on the couch.
“I can't believe I have to spend me weekend like this...” Lance groaned.
“Well excuse me your highness, I didn't know it meant so much to you.” Silvermoon snapped at Lance, who looked at her surprised.
“Mood swings, she's been having them lately.” I chuckled before Silvermoon pressed her head against mine.
“Isn't that right?” Silvermoon purred.
Still sexy.
Agreed.
“How much time do we have left?” Peter asked nervously.
“Until the sun goes down. I just hope that King Horus is okay...” Lance answered Peter before I could.
“You are a veteran at this. Might as well call you Bill.” Greg said drowsily.
“Bill wasn't a veteran, was he?” Lance asked, glancing over to me. I shrugged.
“All I know is that Rochelle was a manager, Nick was a conman, Coach was a, well, coach, and Ellis was an engineer.”
“I love horses.” Greg mumbled.
Two Hours Later...
“I dare you to... do Silvermoon right now!” Greg fell on his back laughing his ass off. I looked over to Silvermoon.
You're not serious are you?
Of course he is! Get on with it!
No way, at least not in front of everyone.
You're no fun...
I looked back at Greg, chuckling. "No way man."
“If you don't do it, I will!” Greg ran up, but before he could cover two feet he was thrown back by my magic.
“You won't be touching her while I'm still alive.” I said, the sun had set and I gulped nervously. It was time.
"We're so screwed..." Peter groaned.
My nostrils flared. "Might as well try."
