The Tale of Deviant, Son of Discord

I was in awe, and shock at the same time. Since I grew up on my own, this is mind-blowing to me that I had family. "Your my D-d-dad?" I said stuttering with a dry feeling in my throat.

"Yes, You are indeed my son, just look at the two of us, we're practically alike." He snapped his fingers, and with a poof of white smoke, a mirror stood in front of both of us. Strangely we both did look alike, except he was much taller, and his tail was red, mine was green, and his reptilian leg was green, mine was red. And another difference was he had snow white eyebrows and a beard, I had black Hair, but other then that we both were identical.

"You see my son? We are clearly of relation by blood, we are the only two draconequus in all of Equestria." said the uncloaked figure.

Questions filled my head, I had to ask and get answers from him, "But how? Your here with me now, why do you show up now of all times!?" with anger in my voice, seeing the only family I've ever had now? "If your really my father prove it! How did I get here anyway? And why am I here?" I had so many questions that needed answers.

"All of those questions will be answered soon my little abomination" said the uncloaked draconequus, wandering around the room looking the walls and candles. "Well to answer your first question let me tell you a little secret that you don't know about yourself."

I cannot believe what he's saying, he's saying he doesn't know me, when he hasn't met me once except for right now! The nerve of him! i thought to myself, while gritting my teeth in anger.

"First off son, you may already realize that you are much different than those around you, correct?" listening to him with my full attention, He was indeed right but anything could tell I was different!

"And being so different, makes you just like me." he said with a smirk, "You have no clue what I'm like." I said to the so-called father.

"Oh really? Odd because I have been with you ever since birth Deviant."

A vein appeared on my forehead, pulsing with a bloodlust to hurt this guy, and rip him limb from limb. Not only was this guy a lier, but he was a nut-job! Nobody even got within a twenty feet radius of me because of my looks! How in Celestias mane could he have been there!

His smile turned into a grin of disgust. He slowly creeped around the pillars in the room, then appeared face to face with me staring into his evil red eyes. "Son... you really must speak up, its hard to understand you thinking when your asking dumb questions."

I was puzzled at him, I said no such words to him. I was only thinking about his opinions. Then it occurred to me, "You... can hear my thoughts?"

His smile returned to his face laughing as he said, "But of course! We both have a bond that nobody else in Equestria has."

"But how could you have been with me, I never saw you in my entire life until now?" My rage disappeared and was replaced by confusion, and came one painful headache.

"Well..." Said the tall draconequus, approaching me. "Im not physically around you, but I'm always in your head."

Looking at the old creature, I had the look of distrust on my face. My headache was burning my skull, and I was thinking of how he could have been lying to me. But inside of me, I somehow believed him. "But why are you here now?" I said with some sadness in my voice, probably because I finally started to believe he was my father and only family.

Once again his smile was replaced, but instead of a grin, it was replaced with the look of darkness. His mouth turned upside down and his eyes closed slowly as he started to still from moving around the room. "Because Deviant, something serious is about to happen in your life, and I'm here to guide you through it." He said, with his back turned to me.

I started to think what was going to happen, raging through my mind was so many possibilities, but just in case I decided to ask him. "Whats going to happen then?"

He turned his snake like body in a spiral, twisting around to look me in the eyes. "You are going to help your old man, with a little... Re-aqaintance with some ponies." he said as he slithered back to the wall to observe.

I had no clue what he was talking about, that pretty much told me nothing about what was going to happen, but I still wanted to know more about what was coming up. "Oh... and who would I be getting re-aquainted with?"

He kept lurking around the room, going behind the pillars and looking at the rooms walls. "Oh just some ponies I have to tie some loose ends with thats all, don't worry Deviant, it won't be very difficult." he said, still sliding and slithering around the room.

Still, he told me nothing about what was coming up. The vein in my head returned, "That doesn't answer my question. Who is it?" I said, In a more serious tone of voice

"Well son if you want me to answer all your questions in time before you wake up then be thankful for the answer you got, now next question." he said, looking at me with a menacing glance.

Well I guess that this was going no-where and he was not going to tell me anytime soon, so I changed to topic to hopefully get a good answer to my serious questions. "Well fine, but where are we? I've never been here before."

He answered back quickly, this time grabbing me and tossing me in the air as he responded. "Well Deviant, we are in the entrance to your inner mind." grabbing me before I hit the ground, and there the grin returned yet again on his face.

"My mind? This little room is my entire mind!?" I spoke with a crack in my voice as it raised. He looked down at me with his red eyes, as his shadow covered me in darkness.

"Well son, we are in the entrance to your mind, the other places of your mind will soon be unlocked, along with your potential." I was starting to look around as he said that, staring at all the portraits on the wall, all of me when I was young. It was amazing, it was like every important time in my life was here in the hall. I was astonished but managed to keep my strait face and ask another question. "Well how am I supposed to get out of here father? This room has no doors, just walls and portraits."

"All in due time Deviant, all in due time.. oh and please call me Discord, father sounds like I'm old." He said as his voice trailed off into a completely new conversation. "Oh would you look at that, the first time you used your wings. That was actually kind of cute how you flopped around so many times."

Aggravated at Discord I quickly went back to topic, "Don't change the topic Discord, Now why do you want my help exactly and what makes you think I'll agree?" He only stared down with a demonic smile across his long face. "The real question is why not Deviant? If you want to help or not your still going to, no matter what you do son, it's fate!" I stared up at him and clenched a fist with my eagle claw. I was filled with rage at my father, the first time I meet him and he wants me to be his errand boy? I don't think so! I started to dash towards him, with my fist still clenched up. I was feet away, his back turned to me, I jumped up and prepared for a devastating blow to release. But before I could hit him, time stopped, I was frozen in mid-air but Discord turned around and looked at me with his grin still on his maw.

As soon as he turned, the room we were in started to shake aggressively. I fell to the ground and released my fist with relief. Discord spoke up quickly," Oh Well would you look at that, your waking up. Your about to meet one of those ponies I need you to see anyway. Oh and here take this." he took of his black tattered cloak, and threw it to me. While in the air the cloak changed size, to a much smaller wear that would fit me perfectly. "It will keep you warm, especially during this time of year."

The room shook as if an earthquake went off, with the room falling apart as the walls crumbled and the ceiling started to collapse. The darkness started to turn to a bright white light, growing all around me. Discord turned and walked away, I tried to run towards him to keep him from leaving

"Discord!" I yelled trying to run to him, but the light engulfed him. everything around me was bright and I was falling as the floor crumbled beneath my feet. This must be a dream, wake up Deviant wake up! I thought to myself over and over. All the light around me changed colors from different greens, blues, and even some yellows. An awful whistling filled my ears, I was finally awake, but all I wanted to do was to keep dreaming.
