An hour after Twilight left


After Twilight left to do whatever she said she was going to do, I had taken the chance for a quick nap but woke up as I felt someone poke me repeatedly.

“Who's poking me?” I asked in a tired voice. I'm tired, I haven't slept in the past three millennia. I can go a lo~ong time without sleep.

“It's me, Nyx.” I heard the voice of Nyx as she stopped poking me.

“Is something the matter?” I asked as I sat up and began to rub the sleep out of my eyes.

“I was hoping if you could tell me where my mom went?” She asked as I lowered my hands.

“She's out for a while, but don't worry she'll be back in a few hours.” I said as I turned to look at her and noticed that she's looking better than she did a few hours ago.

“Oh, okay.” She said in a sadden tone.

“Why so glum?” I asked, wanting to know more.

“I thought that maybe she and I could spend some time together, You know like mother daughter things.” She explained.

“And since your mother had the day free, you thought it was a perfect chance?” I asked, gaining a nod from her.

“Cheer up, there's always tomorrow.” I said in attempt to cheer her up.

“Yeah, I guess.” She said in the same tone. I frowned at this, she really wanted to spend time with Twilight.

“You want to get a snack? I heard Pinkie works in a bakery not too far from here.” I said to her.

“You mean Sugar cube corner? Yeah they make the best baked goods.” She said in a happy tone. I smiled at her happiness, like I said before, I care.

“Lead the way.” I said as I stood up. She nodded and lead me towards the bakery. After we traversed the maze that is Twilight's castle, thanks to Nyx, we headed towards what appeared to be a large scale model of a gingerbread house.

Once inside the gingerbread house, I was greeted with the smell of baked goods. Cupcakes, cheesecakes, all the variety of cakes were on display in the counter.

Nyx was already ringing the bell, repeatedly. She kept ringing in until a blue earth pony mare with light pink mane walked out. From what I could see, she wore a white shirt that read ‘What doesn't hurt today, will burn your ass tomorrow’ and some jeans.

I shook my head as the mare walked up to the counter and stopped Nyx from ringing the bell.

“Nyx, sweetie, what have I told you about ringing the bell?” The mare asked politely with a smile.

“Sorry, Mrs.Cake.” Nyx apologized to the mare.

“It's fine but don't do it again, alright?” Mrs. Cake said, earning a nod from Nyx. She then took out small notepad and a pen.

“Now, what can I get you to-” She stopped as she finally took noticed me. She lost most of her color and bent down to the floor, bowing at me.

“Please, don't.” I said as I facepalmed.

“But you're an alicorn, a stallion at that! You're supposed to be treated with utmost respect.” She said, not moving from her position. I could hear Nyx stifling a laugh.

“So what if I'm an alicorn? I'm still a pony, right?” I said, lying about what I really am. Discord and I are what's called the Master race, like the name implies, we're supposed to be the ultimate beings in existence. We can choose the way our true forms would look like at any giving moment. There's only two of us, why you ask, because for you two be a Master, you either have to be born by one or given the ability to join our ranks.

“Yes bu-”

“Just get up, I will start shouting!” I shouted at her, making her stand up in a flash as she gave me a sheepish smile.

“Now um, what would you two like?” She said, still shaken up from seeing me.

“A vanilla milkshake, just vanilla.” I said turning to look at Nyx, who gave me a questioning look.

“I like Vanilla.” I said to her. She giggled at my answer as she walked up to the counter.

“One slice of the cherry cheesecake, please.” Nyx said, gaining a nod from Mrs.Cake as she went through a set of saloon doors to the back.

I snapped my fingers, making a bag of this world's currency, bits I think they're called.

Mrs.Cake came back with our orders and set them down at the counter.

“That'll be ten bits, your highness.” She said, earning a sigh of annoyance from me. I took out ten of them from the bag and gave it to her.

I then grabbed my milkshake as Nyx grabbed her plate of cheesecake. We sat down near the window and she began devouring her snack, making me laugh at her silliness.

“What?” She said as she looked at me with innocent eyes as he muzzle had been covered with cheesecake. I wiped of the cake from her muzzle and showed it to her.

“You eat like a pig.” I said with a chuckle.

“Yeah, I get that a lot.” She said with a giggle as she took the cheesecake remains from my finger using her spoon.

“Hey, can I ask you something?” Nyx asked as she licked the cake from the spoon.

“Hmm?” I hummed as I drank from my milkshake.

“Why are you the only Alicorn stallion since, well, ever?” She asked. I wanted to lie, but I found myself unable to and let out a sigh.

“I can't tell you, but I can show you.” I said to her. She tilted her head with a questioning look.

“When we get back to the castle, I'll show you.” I said before taking another sip from the milkshake.

The rest of our time there was spent in silent, minus the small talk we had. After she finished the last bit of her cake, we got up and left, with my milkshake in hand.

We headed back to Twilight's castle and on the way more ponies had bowed to my presence, which annoyed me to no end but I had to stay calm as I walked.

Once we arrived at the castle, I opened the door and let Nyx in first, then went in and closing the door behind me. I then turned to look at Nyx.

“You promise you won't tell anypony?” I asked her, earning a set of weird motions from her.

“What was that?” I asked as she finished.

“A pinkie promise, it's a promise that can't be broken.” She answered.

“Alright.” I said as I was soon covered in a torrent of black fire. I felt the disguise burn off of me. My left wing turned back into a large black raven wing while my right wing turned back into a cazador wing.

I looked back down at the filly looking at me. She had the look of pure shock.

“This is what I am. I disguised myself so others wouldn't be so afraid.” I said to her as she slowly walked up to me. She then went towards my raven wings touched a feather.

“You're like Discord?” She asked me.

“Yes, but that's because he's my little brother. I came here to visit him.” I said with smile as she walked up front.

“Cool~.” She said, still amazed by my true form. I smiled as I was soon covered in the same torrent of black fire.

“So you're like an alien, because you said you came to ‘this' world to visit Discord.” Nyx said as the flames dissipated, leaving me back with my disguise.

“In a way, both me and Discord are aliens.” I said as I bent over and picked her up, receiving a yelp of surprise from her.

“So, what do want to do you like to do?” I asked as I straightened back up with Nyx in my arms.

“I like to look at the stars at night and look for constellations.” She said, making me smile at her answer as I began walking to my room, ready to show her the true power of chaos in a contained area.

After navigating the halls and arriving at the door, I snapped my fingers, making the door shine in a bright blue light. After the light died down, I opened the door and was greeted by the void that is space.

I looked at Nyd and saw that she was speechless at the sight. She then turned to look at me.

“Is this...real?” She asked as I smiled at her.

“Only as real as you want it to be.” I said as I let her go, causing her to scream in fear, thinking that she was going to fall and closed her eyes.

After an entire minute, she opened her eyes and looked at me, then at herself and noticed that she was just floating.

“It's like being underwater.” I said as I began to paddle my legs, propelling me upwards.

It took her a while but she finally got the hang of it and was soon giggling as she floated around. Her smile and laughter was enough to warm my none existent heart.

She stopped and looked at me, wanting to ask something.

“How is any of this possible? I've never seen a spell like this before.” She said as she kept herself steady.

“It's not a spell, I can bend reality to my every whim, the way I made this is a little more complicated but you can do whatever you want, like this.” I said as I showed her a star I just made as it shun in a neon light. She looked at it in amazement and reached out for it.

I moved the star towards her and she caught in her hands. She opened them up and saw the miniature neon star.

“Your imagination is the limit.” I said to her as I appeared behind her.

“Anything you think of in here, will be reality.” I said as I held a hand out as a small midnight blue rode appeared in my hand. I then placed the rose in between her left ear.

The room soon changed into a grassy meadow with a small hill. I narrowed my eyes at the hill as I noticed three figures there.

I focused my eyesight and saw that the figures there were Twilight, Nyx and an orange coated pegasus stallion having a small picnic.

I heard a sniff beside me, I looked to see a sadden Nyx looking at the hill. I knelt down on one knee and looked at her.

“That's your Dad, isn't it?” I asked knowing the truth, a little of it at least. She nodded as I saw tears start to flow down her muzzle.

“Please don't cry, fillies like you shouldn't cry.” I said as I wiped the tears away. She quickly embraced me in a tight hug as she sobbed into my shirt.

I returned the embrace, wanting nothing but calming her down. I snapped my fingers, making my room return back to normal and making us appear on the floor.


Ten minutes later


After she finished crying and calmed down, she fell asleep immediately afterwards. I looked at the clock in my room and saw that it was getting late, that is if eight pm still counts as late in this world.

I stood up with Nyx in my arms and started making my way towards her room. Once there, I snapped my fingers, making Nyx’s current clothing turn into pajamas as I gently let her down on her bed.

After leaving her to sleep, I noticed that Twilight hasn't returned yet, odd.

I was about to head back to my room but was hit by a scroll on my way there. I picked up the scroll and read it.

My eyes grew as I read it and felt a grin spread across my face. Then I started clapping my hands, letting the scroll burn in blue fire as I began to laugh.

“What the heck is with the laughing?” I heard the voice of Spike, I think that's his name at least.

“Hold on Spike, I got some saving to do.” I said as I began making my way towards the main entrance.

On the way, I had been covered in a torrent of blue fire, changing my appearance into something else.

I'm still an Alicorn but now I wore a sleeveless, dirty blue overcoat and a gas mask.

As I walked outside and materialized my staff, I smirked under my mask as I began walking towards the forests location.

Once there, I grabbed staff and ripped open a portal to Twilight's location and stepped through it.
