Kronos sat down on a burnt bench looking around he saw thousands of dead soldiers none of them belonging to Atlas's small army sighing he kept thinking 'This is all for the future, This is all for the future.' Kronos looked up wishing he could speak with Cerberus but she had cut herself off only allowing him to take small portions of her power. Standing up he began to walk away from the burning wreckage of the enemy camp stepping over bodies he kept moving back to his legion.
Standing in front of his men Kronos simply motioned for them to began marching west to meet with Atlas and the rest of the army turning they began to march Kronos trailing slightly ahead. Thinking he began to remember the history of the time the battles he had won were good and would help change the time line for the better sighing he felt a hand on his shoulder turning he saw a man wearing black armor that had silver markings "Sir that battle was grand the enemy didn't even see our troops coming till we crashed upon them."
"Yes to bad they weren't better at battle."
"Agreed sir."

"*COUGH* You bastard yo-*SCHLICK*" The mans sentence was cut off as a blade was plunged into his throat killing him immediately pulling the weapon out his throat Kronos spun around and threw the glaive into the final soldiers chest sending the man a few feet back. Standing up straight Kronos he threw his head back and let out a battle cry his men joining the cry. Falling to his knees Kronos feeling his shoulders slump looking down he was the dirt beneath him had blood seeping into it.
Kronos slowly stood up and began to make his way over to the slowly rising camp his men had began to make his way to his tent pushing the flaps aside he made his way over to his cot. Stripping down to his under garments he lied down on the cot staring at the ceiling sighing he felt himself drifting off to sleep.

Standing next to Atlas Kronos stared ahead at the mountain city of Canterlot standing behind both men was an army thousands strong staring ahead Kronos felt a heavy hand on his shoulder looking to his left he saw Atlas staring admirably at city while saying "Soon we shall rule from that mountain my brother."
"Yes just don't forget about all of us down on the ground," Kronos said staring ahead laughing Atlas patted Kronos on his back while motioning the army to march with his other hand. Forcing their way to the mountain fighting through the Equestrian army leading them was Atlas and Kronos forcing their way into the city Kronos began to pull power from the area skillfully making sure that he didn't drain Atlas. As the two warriors made it to the gate Atlas swung his war hammer sending a massive amount of energy barreling into gates splitting them open in a massive blast running through the smoke Kronos took out his glaive and batted two bolt away from him while still running ignoring the two guards while Atlas killed both.
Fighting all the way to the throne room Atlas and Kronos burst through the final doors if you two women step down from the thrones I can promise you that you can keep you titles by marrying me all you have to do is strip."
"Like we would ever do such a thing you vile man !" snarled Lumina staring the man beside her Nyx stared at the young man next to him who never took his eyes off her smiling he winked at he snarling she said "What is with the smirk you welp !?!?"
"Because this war is over." Kronos said swinging his Glaive catching all in the room off guard for a split second and in that time Atlas managed to block his attack but not before being thrown out the window turning Kronos shouted "To the true rulers of Equestria !" raising his weapon he fired a massive amount of magic into the air.
(Battlefield)
Fighting was hell Kronos's men were defending against attacks from the Equestrian military while returning attacks when suddenly a black streak of magic shot into the sky looking up Kronos's men smiled recognizing the signal. Turning they began to attack Atlas's army while roaring "For Equestria !" confused the Equestrian military stopped their attack till random companies began to charge forward yelling "For Equestria !"
Attack the battle began to turn in favor for the Equestrian armies favor the battle would end and Atlas's army would soon be vanquished. Slowly they began to push the army back taking those who surrendered as prisoners while killing those who continued to fight and the rest they were pushed back and forced to retreat.
(Castle)
Kronos looked out the hole he made to see watching as Atlas's power began to rise a purple black aura surrounding him his eyes turning a black snarling he said "YOU DARE BETRAY ME !?!?"
"I was never on your side you psycho path !" Kronos snarled back raising his weapon to defend himself feeling a presence he turned his head slightly to see both queens standing on either side of him holding weapons looking forward he nodded and began to charge his magic hearing a very familiar voice reach out to him "SO YOU MANAGED TO TRICK ME BOY ?"
"Oh yeah sorry about that but how about we end this ?"
"SOUNDS GOOD." Cerberus said Kronos felt a warmth flood into him smiling he said to the queens "Your majesties its a privilege to fight beside you."
"For now but you will answer for what you have done." Nyx said glaring at Atlas as horns began to sprout from his head opening his mouth he let out a massive roar charging forward he swung his fist at Kronos catching him off guard he felt himself fly backwards into a column cracking the hard granite. Attacking the man Lumina and Nyx swung their swords trying to hit his armors weakest points doing a round house kick he sent both women flying into cold granite walls rushing forward Kronos began to call upon more power feeling two sets of wings sprout from his back and his eyes turning a deep purple yelling he flapped his wings rocketing himself forward shoulder charging Atlas he sent the man to the ground a few feet outside causing him to cough up blood. Continuing his attack he raised his glaive swinging it down he tried to cut the mans arm off only to feel something cold and hard slam into his rib cage.
Flying through a fountain Kronos found himself coughing up a bucket worth of blood looking up he saw the war hammer flying at him flapping his wings he did a summersault backwards landing on his feet. Seeing Atlas standing his power continued to grow his face turning a deep shade of crimson while his horns grew further curving slightly back snarling he said "YOU COULD HAVE RULED BESIDE ME BOY........BUT YOU CHOSE TO SIDE WITH A DYING COUNTRY !"
"Hahahaha course you'd say that you pathetic pile of shit."
"TO BAD I REALLY LIKED YOU KID." Atlas snarled smiling Kronos threw his glaive catching Atlas off guard feeling the cold steel bury itself in his shoulder he howled in pain trying to pry the weapon from his shoulder he felt something slam into his throat. Kronos in the split second he had lunged at the man kneeing him in his throat causing him to stagger back and fall onto his back running at him he aimed to finish the job when he felt a sharp pain in his torso looking down he saw purple black covered glass shards sticking out of him coughing he tried to force himself to stand but could only manage to keep himself on his knees. Forcing himself up Atlas ripped the weapon out of his shoulder he stomped over to Kronos he raised the glaive over his head ready to deal the final blow when he was tackled from the side by Lumina using a healthy dose of her magic she sent a blast of magic into the man causing his fall to turn into a uncontrolled rag doll state of flying.
Kronos felt the blade cut into the left side of his face gritting his teeth he forced himself to stay awake trying to stand up he used his weapon as a walking stick looking up he saw Lumina panting slightly looking at him she said "Retreat we can handle it from here on out !"
"No......*COUGH* can do." Kronos managed feeling some blood flow down his chin smiling he felt some of his wounds closing and the pain slip away sighing he began to walk with a limp. Nyx hopped out the window standing beside her sister and the man she noticed how beat up he was blood, glass, dirt, and grass covered his body looking him over she thought 'How is he even standing ?'
Hearing a primitive growling sound the three turned to see Atlas on four legs and unrecognizable as a human being he looked more like a hyena dragon combo getting low to the ground he leapt at the queens. Stepping infront of the rulers Kronos swung his blade cutting both claws of the newly formed Atlas off while the queens and himself side stepped the beast, falling to the ground he rolled over a huffing and snarling as he tried to force himself up growling Kronos stomped over to the beast and began to stab him while screaming. After what felt like eternity Kronos was pulled back to reality when he was roughly flung back by two powerful spells falling on his back he looked up to see the two queens glaring down at him looking over he saw the mutilated body of Atlas before passing out.
Three months that's how long it took for the last of Atlas's army to be eradicated from Equestria and in those three months the man who was now classified as a hero of Equestria was laying in hospital room drifting in and out of a deep coma and had died twice during those times. The sisters had dwelled deep into the mans mind learn about who he was and where he came from after doing so the two were shocked to learn about the type of future he had come to stop and from what they had to guess had succeeded the men who had helped win the war for Equestria were welcomed with open arms along with their families few (mostly nobles and older generations) didn't agree with the fallen joining society but in the end they were ignored.
(Purgatory)
Sitting in a grassy field Kronos stared at the rolling plains smiling he felt himself relax hearing a rustling noise behind him he turned to see Cerberus dressed in a black and white dress smiling sadly she said "SO PUP YOU READY TO MEET THE LORD OF THE DEAD ?"
"As i'll ever be." Kronos said standing up straight he was dressed in a white suit with a black tie and white dress shirt following Cerberus he she led him into a rose field sitting in the middle of it all was a young looking women with long pale white hair walking forward Kronos said "Excuse me lord may a sit beside you ?"
"yes you may." she said in a hushed tone that carried a heavy atmosphere to it nodding Kronos sat next to her crossing his legs he leaned back setting both hands in his lap twiddling his thumbs he said "Not to be rude but I didn't expect you to be a women."
"its quite alright but in truth I don't have a true form like you and Cerberus my form is more of one that brings comfort."
"Hmmmm I see so how does this form bring me comfort."
"i don't know only you know that......but enough of this lets jump right into this you have a chance at reincarnation, life or heaven now which do you choose ?"
"I have thought It over but over these months I have decided that heaven won't do it for me and well life........that's one we both know I cant have."
"true so you chose reincarnation ?"
"Yes but the way you explained it wasn't really reincarnation more like a new chance at life !" Kronos said turning to the lord shutting the book she turned to the man her ruby red eyes standing out against her pale skin smiling she said "because i'll just be giving you a new body in a new world."
"Yes how can-"
"believe me I've done this once before with a dragon."
"Really ?"
"yes but the form you'll be turned into won't be that of a human."
"What are you turning me into then ?"
"you'll find out if you say yes but you'll love the form." she said smiling wickedly at the man shivering he began to chuckle only to look her straight in the eyes saying "The lets get started !"
