Brother of him

Throughout life the rain would always mean something to the world, it would be a meaning that it's a sigh of good, or a sigh of sadness. For others the rain is made for a distraction so that people wouldn't be able to see them nor hear them. Think of it as an assassin's way of life when they have a job to do. Moving through an alleyway two figures one slightly taller than the other were moving fast to their destination. They both wore hoods so that on one would see who they were. The smaller one wasn't so much of a runner, but thanks to the other for holding his hand he could keep up.

Just then they both halted the taller one peeks around the corner and spotted a man coming to their direction. The short hooded child held on to his arm with both hands obviously scared of their sudden stop.

The tall hood looks down at the short one. "It'll be ok". His whisper gently calmed him down and he turns back to the man almost near them.

He looks at him again this time going on his knees to be at his level of height. "I need you to turn us into something".

"Like what?" He was still scared, but it seems to be directed at the turn into something than the sudden stop.

"Hmm... maybe two trash cans, can you do that?" He let up a smile that seems to make the small boy feel better.

The small boy grab the tall hooded hands and squeezed them tight as he concentrated. It was hard for him as this was something that he had never fully done yet. Yes he has turned himself into something before, but it was just him and not another person. To do this now was the hardest thing he could do and doesn't fully know if he'll be able to pull it off, but he had to try.

The man coming around the corner was wearing a trench coat with nerd glasses and held an umbrella. He check his watch and knew that he was in a hurry so he ran around the corner and accidently knock into a trash can. He curse and move along to where he must be.

Seeing the coast is clear the two trash cans were turned back into the two boys. The taller one got up the floor. "Nice one". He gave a flashy smile at the little one who smiles back.

He then hurries them both around the corner and stop in front of 'Ben's Bread Store'. This was the place that they had to be at as this was the only place that didn't have a security system nor cameras. The tall boy grab hold of the knob and in just seconds it disappeared leaving the door now open. They hurried inside and closed the door behind them, and now safe from the rain they removed their hoods.

The tall boy had long slick black hair that went to his shoulders, deep purple eyes that looks as if it could shine in the dark. His skin was tan almost like he was a model, but the ears made him not so. They were pointy almost like an elf’s ears as they both poke through his hair.

The little one had a mixture of black and white hair, the white being a small puff atop his head while the rest plain black. His eyes were different compared to the other as his were of deep yellow with a small dot of red in the middle. His skin were also tan, but he doesn't look like a model himself as his ears were also pointy and he had a visible tiger tooth on the corner of his left side mouth.

They grab a handful of bread and sat in the back of the store. The back was a supply closet that had a bunch load of floor and rolling pins. They both went all out on the bread that they collected devouring it all in under three minutes. When finish the little one rested his head on the legs of the older one.

"Tired I see". He chuckled seeing the little one getting ready to close his eyes.

"...Do you think we'll ever get out of here, Malicar?" The question actually gave him some thought to think about, but before he could say something he had already close his eyes and a snore was heard.

He smiled still and started rubbing his messy hair. "Don't worry, we will get out of here. I won't let anyone hurt you... Discord".

[Present Day]

Within the castle of Princess Twilight Sparkle she was doing what she normally do: read books. It has been a year since she and her friends defeated Tyrak and unlocked what was in the chest that was revealed to be her own kingdom. She was now the Princess of Friendship a title Princess Celestia herself has given her. Coming in with loads of more books was a man wearing a mailman uniform with a cart of books.

"Where do you want these at, Princess Twilight?"

Twilight doesn't always like to be called 'Princess Twilight' only when the need to be called so. And despite being a princess now she still refers to wear normal clothing. He wore a white long-sleeve shirt that had a purple sweater vest over it. She wore brown cargo pants and dark brown shoes. Basically she looks just like a nerd minus the glasses. She also had pink earrings.

Not looking as she was to indulge into the book she was currently reading she says. "Duh, in the library".

Nodding he went to do that, but a loud bang of the entrance doors almost made him drop the books. "Yo, Twilight!" The sound of Rainbow Dashes voice made her close her book she smiles at the group of people who are and will always be her friends.

Coming in Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Applejack, Rarity, and Pinkie Pie came in and at in their own seats within the kingdom that form a circle.

"Glad to see you guys, but the way you guys came in must be something good". She looks at everyone who had a clear smile on as they all looks towards Pinkie Pie.

Pinkie Pie had puffy hair as always bright color eyes that deems her to be a little excited on things and wore a dark color shirt with party balloons on it. She also wore light jean pants and ark pink shoes.

Pinkie couldn't contain herself any longer as she blurted out. "Time for a PARTY!!!" The sudden shout almost made the mailman drop the books again and woke up Spike who was napping in his own room.

"A party? What's the occasion?"

"What do you mean? You do know what today is right?" Rainbow Dash ask, but seeing the confusion on her friend's face she sigh. "Today was the day that we six defeated Tyrak, remember now?"

Rainbow Dash was the same old girl who loves the extreme of things except when it happens to someone she cares for. Her rainbow colored hair became a bit longer than last year and she seems to have grown a bit taller too, she's almost the same height as her girlfriend Fluttershy. Since the battle with Tyrak she and Fluttershy have gotten close since then to the point they started going out. Rainbow has only had simple dates with the women of Humanville that only went on two days. Fluttershy was different than the others and it may had something to do with the fact that they had known each other since school.

Her clothing has change like her wearing a bluest long-sleeve shirt. Her hands were covered by black fingerless gloves, light dark jeans and black combat boots.

Twilight bops herself in the head for not remembering. "A course, sorry, I was caught up the books Princess Celestia sends me. They are amazing".

"Oh! Let me see!". Pinkie Pie came to her left out of the blue and grab the book. "This book is called "Winter Night"... looks boring". She toss the book behind her to which Twilight catches.

"It's not boring, it's the story of Star Swirl the Bearded and one of his adventures when he was young. Plus you didn't even give it a chance".

Pinkie started hopping all over the place. "I can read it by its cover and what I can tell by... Star swirl the Bearded was sent on a quest to find the staff that is deep within the dangerous forest of Equestria. He fights monsters of all kinds like a manicore and finds a temple that has booby traps. Just when he finds the staff a cage suddenly falls on him for some reason... he manages to break free just when the lava started pouring in for some reason... he grabs to staff and uses it to stop the lava and leaves the temple". Everyone looks at Pinkie who had a bright smile on and they then turn towards Twilight who was stun also.

"...Uh, yeah, that's what happened".

"Yippy! I told you".

"Anyway, we were thinking that the party should be here just like last time, Twi". Applejack says then her hair got in her face again where she blows on them, but came back in her face again.

Applejack's hair has become increasingly long to the point everyone could notice the rest almost coming out of her hat. She still wore her farmer clothing with the cowboy boots.

Rarity notice her hair. "Honestly Applejack, when will you cut it?"

"I can handle it". She blew it again, but it just slaps her across the face.

"You know if you allow me to I can do that for you".

"T-Thanks, Rar".

"Don't mention it, I just don't want to look at that dreadful hair. I mean look at it!"

Rarity still looks perfect than ever and ever since she was one of them that saved Equestria her store has been pack and she has been getting notice by the top fashion agencies. She has even be on the cover of "Equestria's Fashion Magazines". Her life has turn around for her and she couldn't be anymore happy. She wore a white blouse that fit with her white skirt and purple heels. Her purple hair has become long and stylist.

"Geez, thanks, Rarity". Applejack grumbled.

"Anytime".

"I think having the party here is a great idea, except... I have a feeling my books will somehow get ruined".

"That's your problem? Books? Don't worry a thing, Twilight, people won’t dare go into a room full of knowledge". Dash says making Twilight frown slightly. "Isn’t that right Fluttershy?"

Fluttershy could do was smile as she didn’t want to agree with her ‘Little Dashie’. It was a name that Fluttershy calls her as Dash is a few inches shorter than she was. People would make fun of their height difference back in school, but Dash would always make her feel better. Fluttershy pink hair has become a little long that she is thinking of cutting it.

She wore a long dark yellow sweater that covers her up even her hands as it was a little big for her, but she didn’t care as it was a gift from Dash herself. She had brownish pants that were also a gift from Dash. She usually wears sandals of all color as hearing that some shoes are made from animals. She even once beg Dash to get some new shoes as the ones she was wearing was made out of deer and rabbit.

"Is it ok if we bring the animals? I think Angel’s getting tired of being coup up in the house all day". Fluttershy ask.

Before Twilight could answer her Pinkie pop up holding Gummy. "Yeah! Gummy loves playing with the animals, he even learned a new trick, see". She puts Gummy down on the floor and watch him closely.

All the tiny alligator did was move its head and looked in opposite directions. "SEE! I love you Gummy!" She then kiss him.

Dash made a fake sickness. "Now that’s sick, Pinkie".

"What? Don’t you do that to Tank?" Pinkie puts Gummy on her hair who clamp on her tightly.

"No, because Tank is a machine who can take on the world if he wanted to". Dash stood proudly.

"So the party will commence tonight?" Rarity ask and Twilight nod. "Excellent! I will commence with the decorations". She then headed out of the castle.

"I’ll bring the sweets of good old apples and people will get a kick out of Granny Smith’s new recipe ‘Slider Ice’". Applejack hurried off also.

"Ohh! Since Applejacks bringing the food I should bring the SNACK!" Pinkie bounce all over then stop in mid-air. "AND THE PARTY FAVORS". She leaves.

"I guess we should head home and get ready, right Shy?"

"Indeed, I got the perfect dress to wear".

"And mine will be badass!" They leave together.

Twilight smiled at her friends and was just about to get back to reading her book. Unfortunately the yelling cause by her friends woke up the second house hold guest.

"What is with the yelling?" Spike came in eyes being rub.

Spike has grown since last year and has become a better assistant. His spiky green hair has become draggy and a bit long to the point they started blocking his eyes. Right now he was in his dragon PJs.

"Sorry, Spike, the girls were over here and a party will be happening tonight".

"That’s cool, just hope I don’t have to pick up the mess afterwards". He yawns and headed off to the restroom. "Um, Twilight".

"Yeah?"

"Why is the mailman underneath all the books?"

A scenario pop into Twilight’s mind that while the mailman was putting all the books on the shelves the yelling from her friends cause him to fall and the shelve also.

"A little help…"

[A few Hours later]

Music was blasting throughout the castle as people were dancing in the middle of it. Vynle Scratch also went by her stage name DJ-PON3 was having a blast of bringing dubstep or what she calls them 'wubs'. Why in the world she would call it that didn't matter to anyone as it was bringing the party to life. Dancing within the crowd was Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy who were completely causing the most attention. The most Dash grab her hands Fluttershy knew she was going to be doing a combined dance move.

Dash starts spinning her around for about ten seconds before throwing her in the air. She has been in this situation before, but it was only in their private time and Dash usually doesn't make it. This time she was determined to catch her this time as everyone was looking at her and waiting for what to happen. Dash smiles and out pops blue see through wings that helps guide her up towards Fluttershy and catches her.

Everyone claps for the couple on a job well done as they descended down.

"They are a show off". Rarity took a sip of her juice.

"They are good though, don't you think?". Applejack says.

"I see you cut that hair of yours".

"It was getting on my nerves for the last time, I could barely get any work done with it getting in my face every two minutes".

"I think you look great now".

"Thank you".

"Awww". The two looks at Pinkie Pie who was sitting at the same table as them, her head was in her hands and elbows on the table as she stared at them.

"What?" Applejack ask her strange friend.

"Are you two going to go out also?" The sudden question got the two looking at one another and then quickly burst into a laughter.

"Pinkie, please me and Applejack? That would never work". Rarity has finish laughing her insides now hurting.

Applejack was beginning to stop also. "I agree, me and Rarity are complete opposites and would never work out".

"Why not?" Pinkie actually looks sad upon hearing what they said. "Look at Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy".

"I agree that the two does have something of an opposite, but that's because they've known one another since school". Rarity takes another sip.

"But LOOK at them". They both took a moment to look at Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy as they have finish another spectacular dance move that got people cheering loudly.

"What are we looking at?" Applejack wasn't sure what to look at the two.

"Look closely". Pinkie tells them.

They did so and what they saw is what Pinkie meant. Dash was holding on to Fluttershy from behind a display they have never seen her do to anyone else before. But the hug didn't last long as realizing what she was doing she quickly let go a small blush on her face as the people around her stare in aww. Fluttershy too was blushing also matching Rainbow's.

"I think I understand what Pinkie's trying to say". Rarity says.

"Good because I don't". Applejack admitted.

"Rainbow Dash loves the action and the extreme of things that would usually get her hurt to which would make Fluttershy worry for her. Fluttershy, she couldn't stand to be around dangerous things yet she would go out her way to calm the most dangerous creatures that could even make Dash scared. The two are opposites at best, but have deep inside them something that connects them".

Applejack had a look that read 'What'."Yeah I still don't understand".

Rarity let out a massive sigh. "It's obvious, it's their years of friendship that really defines them. Remember how heartbroken Dash was when she traded Fluttershy for a Daring Do book? The guilt almost wreck her. And remember when Fluttershy was turned into a vampire... again?"

"Oh yeah, that was a crazy day. I still cannot believe she tried to suck our blood that time, I sometimes worry she might turn back into a vampire". Applejack shivered at the last time she was turned back into a vampire. The accident was cause when Fluttershy accidently cut herself while building a bird's nest. She lick the blood, but the taste made her revert back to her vampire ego.

Fortunately Twilight manage to find a way with the help of Zecora who use a remedy to help Fluttershy back to normal.

"As long as she doesn't try to drink blood I think everything will be alright".

"So do you two understand now?". Pinkie ask with a wide smile.

"I guess I do, but what do you see in us besides opposites?". Applejack ask looking at Rarity.

"I see two friends who would rip each other's heads off when lock in the same room". The sudden answer both scared them, but could understand. "But I also see that when a situation comes you two would drop everything and help one another".

They honestly didn't know what to say about that as they continued to look at one another.

"Hey guys". Spike comes over to them wearing a white tux with the inside shirt being black and so was the tie. His hair was also pulled back with a bit of hair gel in it. By the way he look he would remind people that he look like a young James Bond.

"Oh! Spike, you look dashing". Rarity says.

"Thanks took me an hour to get this looking good".

"Where's Twilight?". Applejack ask.

"Yeah, I want us all to enjoy this. It's not a party without us ALL being here". Pinkie Pie says.

"She's putting on the finishing touches". He answers.

"Well she better come out soon as me and Fluttershy are getting tired of dancing". Dash and Fluttershy came over and sat down. "So where is she?".

"Great Goodly-moodily!". Everyone in the room stare at the hallway that leads to the library and the various of rooms. Coming into the main Twilight was wearing a bright purple dress that hung all the way to the floor. Light bounce off her as if making her a diamond.

Everyone looks on and aww at her and silence fell as she moved over to her friends. 'Ok... this is getting embarrassing... maybe I shouldn't have worn this it is just a party'.

When she got over to the group even they couldn't say a word at her beauty. "Umm, guys? Hello".

"You look amazing!". Pinkie says.

"Yeah, Twilight you look incredible". Applejack agreed.

"I've never seen a you like this before and that dress is gorgeous! Wherever did you get it?". Rarity desperately wanted to know.

"Princess Celestia brought over some dresses for me to wear on occasions... is it a little too much?".

"Not at all".

"You look great". Fluttershy says.

Pinkie's eyes haven't once moved from the sight of Twilight's appearance, her eyes were sparkled and really looked like a diamond. She has seen her friend in tons of dresses, but this was the most stunning one yet. She hasn't notice that everyone including Twilight herself were looking at her.

"Uh, Pinkie, are you ok?". Twilight ask snapping Pinkie back to where she was.

"Huh? Oh, sorry".

"Wow, Pinkie never seen you like this before". Dash says elbowing Pinkie in her arm.

"I just haven't see you in such a nice dress like this before, Twilight, you look really good". Her saying made Twilight blush bright red.

"Thanks, Pinkie". Twilight's heart skip a beat.

"Alright enough talking about her dress lets get this party really started". Dash yells and Vinyl Scratch begins again.

But their little dance off was interrupted by a shear force and the ground shook beneath them. Everyone either held someone close or fell down and wondered what just happened.

"What in tarnation was that? An earthquake?" Applejack helped Rarity get up.

"It must have been, but their nothing about this happening". Twilight says.

"Well at least it didn't knock anything over". Spike says, but the sound of the punch bowl smashing against the glass ground made him rethink what he just said. "Never mind".

"We better see if anything has happened outside". Twilight suggested with her friends following her outside.

[Chanterlot]

"DISCORD!". Luna roar was heard throughout the castle as she angrily tries to find the man responsible for putting chocolate sauce in her hair. The hair would have match the cloths she was wearing perfectly but even the blue outfit was a mess with chocolate sauce on it also.

Without the chocolate presented itself she would have a long flowing blue moon like hair.

"Luna, what is all the noise?". Celestia, the older sibling of the two wore a white outfit and her hair a long flowing sun compares to Luna's.

"Look at what he did!". She pointed at the chocolate dripping from her. Celestia claps down on her mouth before she let out a laugh. "This isn't funny!".

"I-I k-know... this is not appropriate behavior and he'll get a stern talking to".

Luna's mouth open wide. "Stern talking to? He's an adult and needs to be locked up".

"Do you honestly believe that a jail cell could hold him?".

"You know what I mean".

"Yeah, I know, but he's doing this because he's bored".

"Well then get him something that doesn't have to do with me getting chocolate drop on me".

She turns to leave. "I got to go wash this off".

The second Luna was away from sight a hand rested on Celestia's left shoulder. She was far too familiar with the hand on the shoulder trick. She knew that nobody was actually there just a floating hand with a glove so instead of looking to her left she instead looks to the right.

"Hello, Discord".

Standing right there was a tall fellow with messy black and white hair, a tiger tooth, rough skin, and eyes and dark yellow and red. He also had pointy ears that could be seen through his hair. What he was wearing also went with what he looked like as it is all him. He wore a type of business suit except it was brown, with a red shirt under it. A green tie went with it followed by brown cargo pants and slick brown and white shoes. He wore gloves that were both yellow, but the left one had black lines on it.

"Tired?". He grin.

"Of the same old trick?".

"No, of me messing with your sister?".

"A little, why do you always got to do that to her?".

"What? It's fun".

"Well she doesn't look happy about it".

"Well excuse me for being 'bored' there's nothing to do around here".

"You could go out and hang out with Twilight and her friends".

"No, no, no. After what happened last year Dash would never let me get near Fluttershy".

"I can imagine why".

Discord raises a brow. "Yes, I know I betrayed you all, but that is in the past for real this time".

"Let hope so, because putting you back to stone is going to be a drag".

"Don't worry". He puts both their cheeks together. "I am all yours".

She couldn't help but smile at that."Yeah, I am". She grabs him and plants a kiss full on his lips.

When Discord presented her with flowers after the defeat of Tyrak the two have gotten close since then. However nobody knows about the two not even Luna knows. Celestia is saying that she would want their relationship to come out, but somehow Discord is holding back almost like something was keeping him from doing it.

Now it could have gone on longer hadn't it been for the strange noises coming from outside. "Did you hear something?".

"Just my heart".

"Discord...".

"Ok, love moment over... it did sounded like something out in the garden".

"The guards are probably doing something".

"Should we get back to where we were?". He wink.

"I thought you said that the love moment was 'over'".

"I say a lot of things".

"That you do".

Their kissing was again interrupted by the sudden sound of glass breaking. The glass was getting near them as the windows were being shattered by an unknown force. Discord held Celestia close preventing her from getting hurt from the incoming glass. However he was not protected by something and were hit by the oncoming glass that penetrated his back. He tried not scream in fear of Celestia looking up and probably getting hit by glass also. When it was finally over he has finally let go of her.

"Are you okay?". Celestia sees blood on the floor and the glass that has shot in his back.

"Yeah... damn!". He quickly pulls one out which brought him to agony that has brought Celestia to his side to help him.

"Don’t do that!". She put her hand on his back.

"Oh, so you want them in me?". Even though he tried to make a joke the glass was preventing him from laughing.

"If I’d had put up a shield this wouldn’t have happened…". Still keeping her hand on his back her hand started to glow.

"You wouldn’t have been able to make it in time and would have been slice".

"…Still…".

Footsteps came on both directions of the hall as guards and Luna wearing a towel over her head came to them. "What happened?". Luna saw the blood coming from Discord’s back and Celestia seemingly healing him.

"What does it look like?". Discord ask. "We were attack by glass… well me". Celestia put pressure on the wound making him cry out.

"We have no idea what happened. There’s no way it was the wind that could have done that". Celestia answers.

"Indeed, while I was rinsing my hair I felt the ground shake and the wind pouring in".

"This is troubling… guards". They awaited her orders. "Go see if anyone is hurt". They went off.

"The city is probably got people wanting to know what’s going on". Luna says. "What shall we tell them?".

"How about we focus on getting these glass out of me first". Discord pleaded.

"Hold still almost done". The glass were being pulled out at a slow pace by an aura.

Luna lifts a brow. "How did you get like this?".

"I don’t know maybe it happened because I was PROTECTING YOUR SISTER!!!".

Luna looks towards her. "Is that true?". Celestia nods. "Well, thank you for protecting my sister, though I don’t see what you would get out of it".

"What is wrong with you girl!?". Discord tried to struggle towards her, but Celestia held him down.

"Would you stop! There are glass still in you!".

Luna shrug him off not bothering with his little 'hero rescue' and was busy waiting for the guards to return on news.

[Back to Humanville]

"Nothing seems bad just a few broken windows". Spike says.

"The poor little animals are scared to death". Fluttershy cuddled with the cute little animals hoping that her kindness will calm them down.

"They really look scared like they saw something". Spike was noticing the shakiness of the bunnies all shaking like crazy.

"Oh, dear!". Rarity came over to the group with her cat Opalescence who is on one of her most exspensive hats, her claws digging into the top and eyes wide.

"What happened to Opalescence?". Twilight ask.

"I don't know, but she just looks so scared and wouldn't let go of my most exspensive hat! Her claws are digging in! She's going to ruin it!". Rarity would try to pull her of, but of fear that she might rip her hat in the process.

"Winona is the same". Applejack held her dog in an embrace hoping to calm her down. "The last time I seen her like this was when I started up the vacume".

"Tank also". Rainbow held Tank who was in his shell.

"Gummy too is scared!". Pinkie showed Gummy to everyone, but he didn't look scared but just a neutral little alligator. "Oh the horror!".

"You think this may be happening in Chanterlot too?". Spike ask Twilight.

"Probably, lets make a letter".

[Chanterlot]

"Oww!!!". Discord yells as the last glass was pulled out of him.

"Ok now that the glass is out let me just heal patch up your wounds".

"This is taking longer than I thought".

"Well excuse me for being slow healing people isn't that fast"

"If my arms were longer I would do it"

"Can't you just pop up two extra arms?". Luna ask. "Plus, I didn't know you can heal yourself"

"Yeah it's pretty much the only thing that I happened to still have kept".

"What?".

Discord realizing what he just said he tried to change the subject. "I-I would do it, but I'm lazy".

"No surprise there".

He would have retorted to that, but then Celestia says. "Okay just a little more... there". Upon hearing the word 'done' Discord pop up standing on his legs and having a look that read 'Now I'm ready to roll'.

"I feel better than ever".

"Good because I need you to search for anything out of the ordinary". Celestia ordered.

His head down. "Fine..."

A guard comes over to them sweat dripping from him. "P-Princess'... T-There's a-an... intruder... in the castle...". He falls on his stomach.

"Yeah, did anyone get what he just said?". Discord ask.

"He said that there is an intruder in the castle... but where?".

The guard lift his head. "His in the garden". And falls back down.

Ignoring the guard who has fallen they headed outside into the castle's garden located in the back yard of the place. There they see guards surrounding someone in a black hooded outfit whose back was towards them.

"Princess', we've found this man in the garden". A soldier says.

"Who is he?". Celestia ask.

"Don't know all he said was that he would speak to no one besides Discord". The looks were now pointed at him.

"What?". He said in his defense.

"Who is he?". Luna ask.

"Nobody I know".

Laughter erupted from the man as he slowly turn towards the three. "I have always thought that you would never forget me".

"Do I know you?".

The figure takes the hood off his head small slick black hair drop and pruprle eyes were shown. Discord was at a lost for words as he knew who this person was. The hair, the eyes, but the pale skin was new.

"Malicar?".

He smiled. "Yes, Discord, it's your big brother".

Shock appeared on the faces of everyone who was present there as they saw the two brothers hug. As Celestia was pandering on the situation, Luna on the other hand said "WHAT!".

Author: So what do you think? Again you can go on DeviantART and look up Hazurasinner to get the image of what they look like. You won't be able to get a full look of Malicar as he is my character. The second chapter will be coming soon so hold on.
