To do that which I was asked.

Chapter 4 - Finally Faust, The Past, and Discord

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Twas a Saturday morning, and all through the castle, not a creature was stirring, except for me, Omnus… And apparently a certain prismatically haired pony, who was squinting at me.

“I know your evil, and when I get proof, you better watch out because I WILL give it to the princesses, you may have them all fooled but not me! Nobody fools the Rainbow Dash!” she announced.

It was to damn early for this shit. so I smacked her away from me and went right back to sleep… or attempted to. She got up again and just fucking stood on me, Now, these ponies still weigh the same as a real pony, with pegasi being the weight of an overweight man instead, so thats about 120kg on my fucking back, If I was still human i would suffocate. 
I managed to roll over and throw her off me, only for her to get on my stomach. Then, I had a devilish idea, I grabbed her and turned over, using her as a teddy bear and curling up around her.

“Hey! Lemme go!” she said, struggling, with no leverage luckily.

“Not until you stop being so damn fluffy.” I said, then fell back asleep.

Note to self: Stop accidentally pissing off the princesses.

“Ow, Fuck!” I yelled, in no pain, only surprise, as an aura I recognised as Celestia’s picked me up and dropped me on the floor.

“Why are you sleeping with the Element of Loyalty?” She asked, deceptively calm. Luna was blushing fiercely beside her, halfway between anger and interest.

… wait, Interest?!

“She woke me up, She was fluffy, She is teddy bear. Whats the time and do you have the day off? I said, wanting to get this done quickly.

“Fine, as long as it’s innocent” she said (Can’t promise that it will only ever be innocent) “and we can take the day off, why?”

“Your mother wants to speak with you.” I said, with a serious look on my face.

If thou are kidding us we shall feed your genitalia to the pigs!” Shouted luna, with hope in her voice.

“Why didn’t you tell us sooner?” asked Tia

“You kinda blew me off for three days, you were way to busy and I couldn’t get you alone for the rest of the time.” I deadpanned (They teleported Rainbow somewhere, presumably to the palace torture chamber)

“Well that doesn’t matter now! Take us to her!” Tia said, now getting so excited that it showed up through her steel mask of disappointment and judgement.

“I can’t take you to her,” I said (They would try to break her free, and the seal would break) “but I can let you talk to her through this gem projector” I said, pulling it out.

I put it in the center of the room and teleported everything to the very corners as the princesses fidgeted in front of the door, I activated the gem with a simple voice command, “Jarvis, patch us through.” I said, then offered the princesses a blueberry.

“For the last bucking time you don’t have to say that, In swear to god Omn” Fausts voice came through as the projector flickered to life (Omn is pronounced Omen) The girls squeezed in delight as they saw her face (Now they’re a believer! without a trace, of doubt in their minds!)

“Bah, RDJ Forever!” I said, throwing my hands up in the air. “Anyway, I’ll just meditate for a while, have fun you crazy kids.”

“I’m older than you by almost a millennia.” Faust ‘the old’ deadpanned.

I stuck my tongue out then sat there on my bed meditating about my old life.

______________________________________________________________________________________________

“Hey Big Bro, can we go to Comic Con in Melbourne?” Asked my little sister, Jane, with those fucking puppy eyes of hers, I’m going to have to get a gun to fend the boys off her when she’s older.

“Why? *Gasp* Does my little sister want to meet a cute boy at the convention! Does Wittle Janey-waney have a crush that’s going! Ohhh I bet it’s that little Billy isn't it? You have a crush on Billy don’t you Jane.” I teased, as any good brother/father does.

Our parents died in a car crash when I was 19, Jane was 4, I barely had enough money for me to live off of, so I starved myself a bit for her Y’know? I’m not about to give my little sister to a fucking orphanage when I can just suffer a little for her to be happy.

“What, No, Billy is just a friend!” She protested, blushing (Ouch and I hope I didn’t get it right… Billy is fucking weird, he’s ten and I caught him talking to his Pokemon cards…) “So can we go?” And theres the little kid attention span (She’s currently 10 as well)

“Hmmm, Sure. But do you want to dress up?” I asked, we have enough money to go, at least for a day, and I can probably use one of my sick days for it. (I work at the local La Trobe as an accountant)

“OOH CAN I?” She screamed excitedly (That is what I live for) “I wanna go as Korra from Legend of Korra! CAN I, CAN I?!?!” 
“Sure!” I said, smiling and ruffling her hair a bit.

So we got to Comic Con, me dressed in a plain grey T-shirt and grey cargo shorts, and my little avatar companion, Jane.

We wandered around the convention all day, me, just being there for Jane, not looking at anything really, (And getting compliments on how good of a parent I was from random strangers i had never met.) and Jane dashing about looking at everything.
We were about to leave when I spotted a stall I wanted to go to, calling Jane over and saying

“Hey Jane, you can get one thing from this stall, then we’re going.”

“Ok Big Bro!” She said, content with that apparently.

She looked at all the item’s there (Holy shit he has a Tasty Planet Goo Plushy! Anyone else remember that old flash game?) and finally decided on two blue Arm Braces from Legend Of Korra.

When I bought them for her however, something happened, she started to writhe in pain and I quickly dropped onto my knees to try and hold her still, when she disappeared with a flash.


“WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO TO HER!” I screamed at the man, holding him up by his collar, not even noticing how no one else reacted to me screaming.

“This.” Was all he said before Shoving the Goo plushy into me somehow and kicked me in the balls.

I started crying, he just Poofed my sister out of existence and I couldn't do shit! I slowly started to get up, murder in my eyes, when, about halfway through standing, the world flashed.

That was the last thing I saw before consuming an entire biome (Now known as the Badlands) and screaming my rage to the heavens, before just kneeling down and crying for an undefined amount of time.

______________________________________________________________________________

I still haven’t found her, I have however found out about the Multiverse, through experimenting with consuming different things, I consumed a hole in the world and threw a message through (To any who find this doll, [It was my little sister’s Korra doll] If you are on the side against life, know this, if you summon me I WILL kill you, However if you side with life, summon me and have a nice chat or an exchange of favours, Oh and if you see a little girl cosplayer by the name of Jane dressed as Korra from Legend Of Korra, Summon me, I want to see my sister again.).

I sat there, just thinking about her and not even realising that I was crying until Faust said something.

“Omn, are you OK?” was what she said, snapping me back into reality.

“Hmm, Yea, yea I’m fine.” I said, She knew not to push when I didn’t want to discuss something… But the sisters didn’t

“Thou art crying Omny, That does not agree with thy words.” Said Luna.

“I agree, you are most defiantly no ‘O.K’” said Tia, crossing her arms.

“Just leave it, the past is the past. Do not press me about this.” I said, as sharply as I could while not insulting them, then leaving to go walk in the gardens, maybe talk to Discord (I heard he’s in the center of the gardens as a Pigeon Potty)

POV Change, Luna

“I learned long ago to not push things about him girls. His past is his own, and is filled with regrets I suppose, but that is not my problem, he wants us to stay out of it. So we will” Said Mother, semi-sternly.

“But Mother! He is our friend, we must help him if we can!” I said, surprised.

“I for one, agree with Lulu, we should help Omnus with his problems if he has them.” Said Tia (Huzzah! Sister agrees with me!)

“That is not what friendship is, forcing him to fix his problems is slavery of the mind,  if he needed help he would ask it. Omnus is a smart stallion, he wouldn’t let it effect anything.” Said Mother, for some reason not wanting to help him. “If he came to me for help I would give him anything I could,.But he has made it clear in the past, And just now, that he does not want help.”

“I hath been down that path is the past, that is how we had Nightmare Moon.” I said, disagreeing.

“Nightmare Moon was born of jealousy, not grief.” Was Mother’s short, cryptic answer “Now then, you girls have a country to rule. If I here of you harassing Omnus about this then you WILL get grounded Missies.” Was the last thing Mother said.

“What do you think she meant by grief?” Asked Tia, pondering that.

“I know not, but it is most pressing no?” I said in return, curious myself.

POV Change, Omnus

————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

I sat there, just talking to Discord’s statue with him talking back via Telepathic Communication. We talked about a lot, apparently Tia and ‘Lulu’ don’t visit him, ever. It was therapeutic in a way, talking with an old friend who had gone mad through pretty much going through the same things I did. He did most of the talking, I just sat there and listened with my eyes closed, absorbing in everything, until he said the one phrase I was dreading at the moment,

“Tia and Lulu are coming, You might want to hide behind me as a stick or something eh? Maybe a little butterfly on my nose?”

Naturally I did turn into a butterfly and sat at his nose, but my wings had a little ‘Birdie’ markings on them, lend hand right wing, right hand left wing.

Discord laughed at that, then said, “Just let me taunt them, they’ll go away soon enough.”

“Your show dude.” Was all I said. If Discord could have grinned he would have.

“Why hello there Ladies! For what reason have you come to see little old me? Could it be because of a lack of discord, don’t pardon the pun, among ponies? Want me to spice it up a little for you?” He said.

“We are not here for your games. Guard, are you sure that he went this way?” Said Tia, seeming impatient.

“Y-y-yes your majesty, he was sitting here for twenty minutes before you summoned me, perhaps another guard saw him leave?” said Captain Redshirt

“Thank you Lieutenant Redshirt, you are dismissed. (So close! Wait… what?)

“Awww, not here to see me Tia? How about you Lulu? And what is this, a prisoner escape Your bedro- mean The Royal Fungeons Celestia?” (Fuck, Discords good. But I had a better one.)

“We are here with Celestia Beast. It would do thou well to remember that WE are in charge here, not thou.” Said Luna, angrily

“Wha-no!”said Tia, blushing. “I am here to find Omnus, You know, the one that was able to hold you down so we could imprison you.” said Tia, Ouch.

{I had to mate, you were going to destroy the balance… though Tia has also ruined Balance…} I thought to Discord,

[Don’t worry about it, besides, I needed time to cool off… But even then a thousand years is a bit much] thought Discord back to me

{How about this then, In about six months I’ll send a class expedition up here to the gardens, three fillies will start an argument and Bing Bang Boom, your free. But Tia will never buy that you just went sane from that, so you get stoned after pressuring the Elements of Harmony’s Bullshit Friendship thing. and then I convince Tia to let them ‘Reform’ you. You go rogue again, and then you do a friendship spiel after becoming friends with one of them.} I quickly thought up a plan, not a good one, mind you, but a plan is a plan.

[Hmmm, let me think about it, I’ll tell you next time you come around ok?] He thought to me, seriously considering this.

{Ok, I’ll comeback in around two days, you can either do this, and earn their trust, or have me free you then, and run off into the Everfree, theres a perfectly cliche evil looking ruined castle in there for you.} I thought

[It’s a deal] he said back to me.

“Well, if the Obviously Ominous Omnus was here I would have noticed, after all, I have some choice words for that man!” Said Discord to Tia and Lulu, feigning anger (I hope)

“Pray tell, How dost thy jaw feel, being stuck like that.” said Luna, smugly (I did not raise her like that!)

“Probably the same way it feels to have Nightmare Moon in the background of your mind, annoying.” Said Dissy (He just earned a nickname) with a sick cold burn… Get it, cause the moon is co- ok i’ll stop.

Tia and Luna stormed off and I went back down and changed into human form.

“Thanks man, I owe you one.” was all I said.

“No you don’t, you are, after all, going to free me, that was my way of paying you back. Friend.” Was what he said. I sat there for the remainder of the day, then went to bed, promising to visit in two days, then once a week, at least. if he chose option one.

But I guess we’ll just have to wait and see what he chooses wont we?
