Lightning. Electricity. Static. These are his specialties. Now? They are his true powers. Dr. Alxion is now a darkened resident of the Equestrian world, where two Equestria, near identical, sit side by side.

In two Equestrias, Dr. Thaddeus Alxion is renowned in fear. He is the one who imprisoned the Solar Twins and left the Lunar Twins badly injured, he was locked away, deep inside Tartarus, never to escape. In fact, Cerberus himself guarded his cell and one other. Now, his fellow prisoner has escaped. Unbeknownst to the rulers, Thaddeus was far from evil, and has chosen to end Tirek, and with the blessings of Tartar itself, he has left to end it all.
One problem, his daughter is now in Equestria.

The Centaur's End and Man's Beginning

Twilight and her companion lay on the ground, all their magic absorbed by the centaur before them, their friends now free. They had only just begun to run for the box, but Tirek stood in their way. The eight found themselves trapped. At least, they would have been. It was when the sound of thunder shook the moutnain and Tirek himself was blasted back that Twilight Sparkle and her fighting companion were shocked by what seemed to be a bolt of lighting, throwing the centaur backwards. After a large amount of dust cleared, the pissed centaur glared in the direction that the bolt seemed to come from.

"WHO DARES?" The centaur screamed, his hair and horns singed. From clouds above the mountain, a bipedal figure in a white labcoat floated down. His hair was as blonde as gold and his eyes strikingly blue. He seemed to radiate electricity itself.

"I dare," the figure answered as lighting began to shoot from his fingertips.

"You? Hah! I can merely steal your magic!" The centaur opened his mouth wide only to be shocked as the magic began streaming from his towards the character, turning to lightning as it struck his fingertips.

"This," the figure held up a hand as the electricity gathered into a ball, "is nothing more than another form of electricity," he smirked, "and do you know what that means, Tirek?"

The centaur gulped, pure fear racing his being for the first time in many years. Only, this time, it was far more potent.

"It is mine to control," the figure raised the ball of lightning to the sky, "I am the Lord of Storms, The Lightning God, Dr. Thaddeus Alxion." As soon as Alxion finished he hurled the lightning at the centaur who, with the magic in its true form, could do nothing as he was thrown back, arcing through the sky and crashing into another mountain.

"You two," he gestured at Twilight and her companion, "Go. Do whatever it is you were going to do, I will take care of him." Alxion shot forward into the form of a lightning bolt stopping where Tirek crashed. As soon as he did so, the centaur broke through the rock and grabbed the man throwing him downward. Quick as thunder, Alxion shot back upwards and faced the centaur, his labcoat sizzling with tiny bolts of lightning.

"Do you not remember me? The man who shared your imprisonment? The man who knows all of your plans?" Alxion smirked, his eyes glowing ominously.

"YOU! You choose to fight me? Why? These ponies imprisoned you as well!" Tirek roared, preparing to attack.

"Ponies? Imprison me?" Alxion began to laughed, thunder echoing him, "You know nothing, fool. I was imprisoned by the Spirit of Chaos, not some measely winged unicorns!"

"Discord imprisoned YOU?" Tirek began to roar with laughter as well, "You are weak, and I will crush you."

"Discord was a true opponent, one who I respect as an equal. We dueled and he won, mind you not through power, so I went through with our agreement," Alxion smiled but his eyes did not. At that moment, Tirek attacked only to be blasted back by barrage after barrage of lightning. Far into the sky the two flew, "If you have harmed him, even if you merely took his power, you will die!"

Tirek coughed and laughed, trying to throw off the man, "I took his power AND disgraced him to his friends," which merely pissed him off more.

Alxion laughed, a dark merciless laugh, "Then I can say I was provoked!" Alxion reached behind him into his lab coat and pulled out a sword, crackling with electricity, and struck the centaur downwards.

With an extremely loud explosion Tirek struck the ground. Now inside a massive crater and unable to move from pain, Tirek shuddered as Alxion floated down to him, and leaned over to look him in the eyes. The man's face showed no exhaustion, and he glared into Tirek's face with pure hatred. "Little centaur, I have listened to your wails for far too long, to be put simply, you were no challenge."

Alxion plunged his sword into the centaur's chest as a rainbow blasted through the sky and ponies and other creatures alike felt their magic return. The centaur remained frozen as electricity went up the sword and into Alxion. When the man finally removed his bloodied sword, the centaur's body dissipated, to be as if it never were.

Alxion stood up as Twilight and her companion walked up to him. "Who are you? And where is Tirek?" Twilight demanded, slight frazzled.

"I am Dr. Thaddeus Alxion, The Lord of Storms, and the Lightning God, young Twilight," Alxion answered, bowing slightly.

"How do you know my name?" Twilight squinted at the man with some scrutiny.

"I was imprisoned in Tartarus with a looking glass until Tirek escaped. I have been following him ever since," Alxion said, still bowing.

"Speaking of Tirek," the other figure asked, her form slightly hidden by a cloak, "Where is he?"

"I have absorbed his magic, or rather, all the electricity from him. His atoms dissolved without anything to hold them together," Alxion smiled, "What is your name, young miss? I never seemed to catch it."

"It's Amelia, Amelia Turner," she said, which caused him to freeze. The man seemed shocked, almost as if something he treasured dearly had been found.

Tears filled his eyes, "Lia-lee?"

Amelia froze and looked up, her face was filled with tears as well, "D-daddy?"

Twilight gapped, probably shocked beyond belief.

"Yes honey, its me," the man embraced his daughter with elated joy.

Author's Note

Dr. Thaddeus Alxion is my creation. Here's his theme-

Thanks to the wonderful MidnightChaos for writing Amelia and creating her. Her theme is-

Lightning meets Gravity

“I can’t believe it’s you, Dad,” Amelia sniffled, “They said you died. They even had a body.”

Alxion smiled, “Well, I’m alive aren’t I? So, no more worries.” He said this with a slight amount of worry. He had never told anyone his story.

Some Time Ago, On Earth

“Test 345. As with our other attempts, we are trying to create ball lightning,” Alxion said into the video camera. He then turned it towards a mass of machinery.

The machines crackled as they powered up, sparks arcing towards the center. Gradually, it began to form a ball. It got larger and larger, eventually no longer a ball but a ring.

“The attempt seems to have created another kind of lightning, an almost portal-like shimmer lies at the center of the ring,” Alxion leaned forward to get a better look, only to be thrown off guard as a hand pushed him into the ring. As the world began to fade, he heard a mirthless chuckle.

“Still, its impo-” Amelia’s eyes widened and blood stained her chest. “D-dad?”

Alxion could only stare in shock as she fell to the ground and a smaller version of Tirek grinned at him.

“So, thought I was dead you? No, that was merely a projection,” the centaur laughed, removing the spear from Amelia’s unconscious form.

Alxion’s eyes began to glow brighter. “You,” he closed them and screamed, “BASTARD!” As he said this, multiple bolts of lightning arced towards Tirek and blasted him back, which merely left him laughing.

“Looks like you’re in a pinch hm?” Tirek snickered before punching Alxion. Punch, after punch, after punch, Alxion was pushed back. “How about this?” Tirek kicked Alxion backwards, causing him to leave a slight trench in the ground.

“Damn,” Alxion coughed, “Looks like I can’t-” He was interrupted by a black diamond falling into his hand. “I am the protector of the innocent, warrior of the weak, call upon me for assistance and I shall come. Call for the Gravity Shifter and I will make those who harm others beg for mercy as they are crushed at my feet. Hold this gem close to thine heart and I shall be at your side as a fellow warrior!”
Alxion shrugged, “Worth a shot. GRAVITY SHIFTER ANSWER MY PLEA, I CALL FOR SOMEONE TO FIGHT ALONGSIDE ME!” He clutched the diamond.

A swirling black and red portal appeared overhead, a figure falling out and landing on their feet not too far from Alxion. It appeared to be a young female with long blonde hair, wearing a black jacket and khaki jeans. She stood up from her crouched position and… giggled?

“Haha! Yes! Stuck the landing! Woo! No more tumbling for this girl!”

“Haha. whatever. Evil centaur. Tried killing my daughter, fight,” Alxion dragged himself up and drew his sword, crackling with electricity. “Please.”

“Hmm?” she noticed them all, taking special notice to the young girl lying injured. Her eyes hardened, turning blood-red. She slowly turned to look at Tirek, an evil smirk appearing. “Oh, this is gonna be good.”

Alxion rolled his eyes, and sprinted forward, the new arrival following after him. “Make a small gravity well a few yards in front of him,” he said as he ran. She smirked, her hand glowing with a red and white aura.

“It’s all ready.”

Alxion swung the sword, two bolts arcing into the well, bending inwards as he jumped over the well and landed on the two bolts, as soon as he was close enough, he jumped up, swung the sword down, and flipped. The bolts, and a new third one from the sword came down like a whip into Tirek, throwing him back several hundred feet.

The woman appeared right behind Tirek, slamming her feet into his back and toppling him to the ground. “Heh, I haven’t felt this good about revenge since the first time I sealed away this connard.”

“Not even going to ask,” Alxion said as he sent out a bolt, riding it like a wind surfer, coming back around and jumping onto Tirek’s head backflipping off as the bolt strikes.

“Oh, we’ll get to that later,” she assured, grabbing Tirek’s horns. “It only gets weirder.” Almost too easily, she picked Tirek up by the horns and slammed him to the ground on his back.

Alxion jumped upwards and plunged the sword into Tirek’s chest as fast as a lightning bolt before absorbing all of the electricity from Tirek’s form. Again. He pulled out the sword and ran over to Amelia. “Lia-lee?”

Amelia’s face was ghost white and she was shivering, “D-daddy?”

“Yes dear?” Alxion’s eyes were filled with tears.

“What, what happened?”

“You were stabbed, we need to get you to the hospital,” Alxion said.

The woman came up to them and held out a strange, green crystal. “Here, use this. Just crush it and sprinkle the dust over her.”

Alxion nodded and crushed it, sprinkling it lightly all over Amelia’s form. Before their eyes, the wound mended itself within seconds, completely healing Amelia. “I’ve got to get some of those,” Alxion murmurred.

The woman smiled before looking at Amelia. “How are you feeling, young one?”

Amelia’s color had returned, “Better. much better.”

“Glad to hear it. I’m not letting a child die on my watch,” she turned away and muttered something under her breath.

Alxion turned around and held out his hand, “Thank you. I’m Dr. Thaddeus Alxion and this is my daughter Amelia.”

She nodded in return. “Well met, good doctor and child. I am Kat Shifter, Gravity incarnate.”

“Now, what was that comment about “revenge the first time” all about?” Alxion asked.

“Oh, I dealt with Tirek about twelve hundred years ago back home. He was a real connard. Threw him into the depths of Tartarus myself.”

“Back home?” Alxion raised an eyebrow.

“In my home universe. You know, parallels? Alternates? All that merde and more.”

“Yes, of course. Its called the Multiverse Theory. You mean to tell me you’re from another universe?” Alxion asked.

“Of course! We all are!”

“ ‘We’ meaning? I know you don’t mean everyone. The way it was said implies some sort of grouping.”

Kat reached into her jacket and pulled out a book. “‘We’ as in the Displaced.” She opened the book and displayed the pages, each showing world after world after world. “There’s hundreds of us, coming from different worlds, alternate Earths, forgotten universes, etcetera. And each and everyone one of us call an Equestria home. Or at least, most of us do.” She slammed the book shut.

Alxion winced. “I sense some tension, what’s wrong?”

“Oh, some of us just don’t stay in our Equestrias. Some become Void dwellers, or others like me who get exiled and banished.”

“Well, you seem nice enough, you can stay here as long as you like or return at any time.”

“That’s most appreciated, but I won’t need to stay long.” She winked. “Free spirit after all.”

“Fair enough, anyways, we should really get her to her house,” Alxion gestured at the sleeping Amelia.

“Would you like some help with that?” Kat asked, levitating Amelia into the air.

“Thank you,” Alxion nodded.

“Just show me where we need to go.”

Kat gently lowered Amelia into her bed, pulling the covers up and over her body. “There we are, nice cozy,” she gently whispered.

Alxion held the door open and waited for Kat to exit the room. She came out a moment later. “You have a lovely daughter. Reminds me of my own a bit.”

“You had a daughter?” Alxion asked as he closed the door.

“I’ve had three, all adopted though. I am… unable to give birth.”

“Well, I hope someone can help you you with that one day,” Alxion smiled, “For now though, if you ever visit again, feel free to mother Amelia. Celestia knows she needs it.”

“My my, Alxion,” she said with half-lidded eyes. “You aren’t trying to seduce me now are you?”

Alxion, straightfaced, answered honestly. “Of course I-” He burst out laughing, wiping a tear from his eye. “Nope. Couldn’t do it.” He took a deep breath, “In the end, my daughter needs a motherly figure, whether she’s with me or not. Now that I’ve found her, she’s my concern. Nothing else.”

Kat giggled. “I’m just teasing anyway. But, I suppose I could every now and then.” She put a finger to her chin. “You know what, I’m not needed anywhere right now. I suppose I could stick around for a little while. I could create a relationship with Amelia and get you used to the Displaced. Especially because sometimes they just show up out of nowhere.”

“Sounds like a problem that should be fixed,” Alxion said.

Out of the sky streaked what looked like a meteor. It slammed into the ground not to far away, creating a rather large impact crater. From out of it emerged a car sized flaming lizard, its wild electric blue mane waving in the wind. It took one look at them before throwing its head back and releasing a bone roar of pure rage.

Alxion facepalmed. “God damn it.”
