My beginnings in Equestria

                                                                                     -Past me in Equestria-

I've been here for awhile now and I gotta say this place has gone down the drain ever since Luna And Celestias brawl. It caused me pain to see my two old friends battle and even more now that Celestia is alone without her closest friends.

Aww the memories of our childhood there was Discord, Celestia, Luna, and I. We did everything together as kids the closest friends. Even though I didn't get here until we were all around 4 years old. I still don't believe how I got here, I was 18 years old back on Earth dressed up as King Jeremiah from dark souls for the RTX convention in Texas.

I had made my own pyromancy glove and was looking at the surrounding shops for a whip to get as close as I could to the real deal when I walked into a small shop out by the game store across the street it was a little creepy to say the least. I mean the guy selling this stuff looked like the merchant in resident evil four. I thought he did it for the convention but I look back now and think otherwise.

While I was looking around the shop I saw a perfect replica of the notched whip from dark souls I had to get it, when I approached the man I asked how much for the whip he looked at me and said "I'll sale it to you for 50$ I instantly went to bargain mode and made him drop the price 10$ so I could afford it I thought I fooled him but he got me instead in the long run of things.

That night after the convention I went back home but when I got to my doorstep I blacked out. I would say I awoke pretty surprised at my surroundings but that would be a lie.

I really felt scared and weak because I was 4 years freaking old in a pony world with no-one I knew with me.

I was crying in a maze when I heard voices coming for me I panicked and decided to run although running was more like wobbling.

I was soon apprehended an taken to the leader of these ponys the King of Equestria and his rightful Queen. They looked at me quizinly but made a shocking approval to keep me at the palace and be there "child".

That's when I met them. My closest friends in the world. Celestia was a white "filly" as these ponies say. She was a unicorn while her sister Luna was a dark blue Pegasus. They greeted me instantly and I gotta say I was happy I already made two friends after my tour of the castle they took me to see Discord who was a mix of all sorts of animals but he was crazy cool qnd I loved having him around I didn't have to be the only boy in our group.

We grew up becoming great friends one day we decided to share out life gouls Celestia wanted to be a famous model while luna wanted to be a weather specialist. Discord wanted to create things that would spice up life for ponies and I wanted to become king of Equestria.

So through the years we grew up and we all soon found out that Discord was becoming a little to crazy but kept him in check and make him change the clouds back to normal when he changed them to cotton candy.

When we reached the ages of 20 the king and queen started to die but before that Celestia and Luna became the first alicorns to ever come around since the last 100 years. This also meant they got all right to the throne and the right to rule Equestria this made me livid but I learned to except an deal with it so I wouldn't cause a scene.

Later that year the king and queen died and we all mourned for them but Celestia and Luna had to leave me an discord to mourn more while the royal advisors made them fit for royalty. After awhile Discord left to go on a spiritual journey qnd that stuff while I remained by Celestia and Lunas side as a personal guard for them.

After two years Discord returned but wasn't the same we could tell he started to create so much chaos that we had to use all are powers to try an deal with him I had a big show down while Celestia and Luna looked for a way to defeat him.

During me a Discords battle he said on his journey he discovered he was the king of chaos an that I should be bowing before him.

I shot a fireball out of my hand then threw a wild fist which collided with his jaw which I heard snap then kicked 10 feet away from me I think I snapped at the fact I was the only one whose dream was to become king an rule the land.

He got up and snapped his fingers which put his jaw back in place right when I was going to snap it off Celestia and Luna returned with a group of artifacts the elements of harmony and they turned discord to stone with them.

After moving his statue to the garden of our palace I began to hate Celestia and Luna for being the rulers of Equestria and I started to train on my pyromancy. While training I learned all sorts of new tricks I was gonna use these to take over Equestria but that same day I learned my tricks Celestia and Luna got there cutie marks which we were 22 years old an not ageing anymore but it took 28 years to get those things on thier flanks pathetic at this time I grew more angriy and hatred for them and decided find out what the cutue marks were so I could make sure I was in no need to fear and it turns out Celestia became the sun in a pony form while Luna got to be the moons incarnate.

That didn't stop me for what I did next and I regret it ever since. I walked into the throne room and dismissed all the guards in the room saying it was a secret matter to attend to they bought obviously I was their higher official. When I closed the doors th

o the throne room Celestia and Luna asked what was the problem I looked them in the eyes and said that you were the problems and shot a mega fireball at them which they dodged with ease but I though of that and wrapped my whip around Lunas forleg and started to tighten the grip which made her bleed they begged me to stop which I ignored with my thirst for power.

Celestia decided to shoot me a heat spell that scorched my exposed back with my knowledge of fire it wasn't as much damage as it could have been but I flinched which gave Luna time to free herself and shoot her drag magic at me which I took to the face when I recovered I saw that Luna was charging me with her horn down and sidestepped and hit her jaw with a flaming fist.

Luna was unconscious and Celestia started to tear up an ask why I would do this to them i answered with cold venomous spite towards her I stated that I deserved the thrown not her or her sister while saying this I noticed she had gathered the elements of harmony and started charging them up I did the same thing and made a flame thrower out of my breath she shot the elements and we collided we sat there matched and then she started gaining the grown I was shocked no way I was losing by the time I had a back up plan her beam shot through my heart and everything grew quiet.

I looked down and noticed I was turning to stone slowly but I wasn't mad I was glad? She had destroyed the thirst for power in my head by there time could say something my tongue turned to stone so I started walking towards her until I was about 5 feet in front of her and my legs turned to stone I tried to reach out but quickly turned fully stoned motionless.

Luna woke up and her and Celestia stared at me and sobbed at my betrayal. The guards soon broke the doors down and were shock to see the scene but soon asked what to do Celestia and Luna put me into the maze garden aswell.

I sat there watching what was in front of me and listened to my surroundings a 100 years later i heard a huge explosion which knocked me over to look at the castle and saw that Luna had betrayed her sister but it wasn't her it was the darkness inside of me I could feel it the battle soon ended with Celestia using the elements and banishing Luna to the moon she soon landed in her crumbled castle and told the guards and house servants to pack everything up an take to the newly built castle in Canterlot.

When they cleared out Celestia collapsed and started to cry and didn't stop for awhile I wish I could help but I couldn't in my predicament she cried out why all her closest friends could leave her we did. She didn't stop crying unless need

dead to give orders on what to take to the new castle.

Celestia took everything that was unscathed from the battle and took it to the new castle in Canterlot she even took Discord but she told the guards to leave her alone for awhile they complied to the grieving princess.

Celestia walked up to me with her head down I could hear her sobs. When she lifted her head she had bloodshot eyes from all her crying. She started off asking why I betrayed her and her sister for something so selfish. I was asking myself too but couldn't answer for my actions either. she left me there at the destroyed castle and never would return to my knowledge.

Now I've been here for lets say 2000 years give or take some and I have to say I'm depressed that I never get to see my friends even the one I hurt the most. While on a nice summer day I felt a presence approach me turning the the corner was Celestia herself why come back to me the one who caused all the pain in the world to you. Why?!?

Why come back to me? Why?!?

She came walking up to me with a strong warmth to her very soul, but I could sense the hollowness that was in her still.

She got about five feet away from me and sat down. "Hello Jeremiah its been awhile since I've seen you" she stated rather warmly since our last conversation ended with her tears streaking the ground. "I've come to say that I forgive you for what you did" she said.

"What!!!" I screamed but didn't come out for her ears too hear.

"I forgive you and must tell you this to ease my heart from all the pain you caused Luna and I those years" she started tearing up now but stayed strong.

Wasn't long enough because soon she fell to her knees and started crying like a foal. "Why did you betray us I thought you cared for us but you attacked us and tried to kill me." She screamed I could feel the rage and sorrow radiate from her. I couldn't bare too see her like this.

I concentrated on a pyromancy I learned in my training I called it warmth it allowed whoever was in it to heal physically and mentally. I could feel my stone cold hand warm up I tried harder to get it through this stone barrier my brain was gonna explode after this I just knew it.

With a last mental push I shot the ball of flame onto the ground next to her.

-Celestia's point of view-

I felt a sudden warmness surround me. It felt good and I was calming down to bask in its presence. After a few minutes I remembered where I was I shot up looking around me for any signs of life but there was no-one around me. I looked at Jeremiah and noticed that his right hand was burnt black I couldn't believe it that he was there so I flapped my wings and flew out of there as fast as possible.

Jeremiah's point of view-

"Wait!!" I mentally screamed but she just left me alone. I didn't want to be alone again.
