It was a peaceful day in the realm.

Sadly, it did not last.

A skeleton of a crow landed in front of me with a message.

I was half-tempted to banish the crow off to another dimension, but decided against it. After all, it was Death's favorite messenger.

I sighed and begrudgingly held out my hand to receive a folded up piece of parchment.

I read the contents of message and groaned.

Come to my office.

Well, pineapples.

I stood up, startling the crow, and teleported to Death's office.

When I arrived, Death was signing paperwork for a human to move to the Underworld.

He had short messy black hair, deep-blood red eyes, and very pale complexion. He wore a black robe with silver linings and intricate designs embroidered in green. He ad a brass name-pin with the name Death etched on it.

I looked around his office. Papers were strewn everywhere and overfilled file cabinets covered at least half the room. Mirrors covered the rest of the room, giving the impression of an infinite room. I looked at one of the mirror. I had gray eyes, dark brown hair that seemed to have a mind of it's own and slightly tanned skin. I wore a pure white silk dress that seem ethereal as it moved like wind was blowing. My name-pin was platinum, but instead of my name being etched on, it was hastily scribbled on with gold Sharpie.

That's what I get for returning from exile.

`Death finally looked up. "You're late."

"No I'm not."

" Yes you are." I deadpanned at him. Trust him to end the argument his way.

" There is a task for you."

" What is it this time? A land filled with flaming cheetos? Another homunculus? A guy who split his soul into seven pieces? Come on, those weren't even my fault!"

" All of them were your fault in some way or another. This time it's your fault. Directly." I narrowed my eyes. What had happened that was my fault?

Answer? A little too many things.

"It's acting up again." My eyes widened.

" Oh. That."

That being the Pandora's Box that was accidentally banished while open to a world called Equestria. ~~It was totally not my fault.~~

...Apparently it activates every 1000 years.

"So...?"

"You'll be sent to the world called Equestria as a representative of the Realm to right the wrongs of the Pandora's box. The deity of that world is outside of my office."

He raised his voice slightly. "Come in."

There was a slight tingly feeling in the air, as if someone just sprinkled glitter everywhere, and the door swung open.

I stared at the figure in the doorway.

She (I'm assuming she's a she) was a pegacorn equine (Which is very rare in this dimension of the realm. Most of them take on a humanoid form.) with a pinkish-white pelt (or skin? Fur?). Her hair (mane?) and tail were multicolored and flowing (which reminded me of the dawn) and had violet eyes. On her flank was the image of a stylized sun.

Death smirked. "This is Celestia."

A spark of recognition flitted through her eyes.

Now that I think about it, I feel like I've seen her somewhere....

An image of the younger version of the god with pink hair (MANE) with a smaller blue one frolicking in a meadow (which looked like the Elysian Fields) popped into my mind. I gasped. "You're Celly!"

She chuckled. "Indeed."

"What happened to Lulu?"

Her eyes darkened and lowered her head. "She-she...was turned into Nightmare Moon. I had no choice but to banish her to the moon."

"I'm sorry."

"So," Death started and we both looked at him. "Now that we are reacquainted, We will need to sort out a few details."

We both nodded.

"Alright. Truth, you will enter Celestia's world a week before the box activates. Don't bother with the portal, it's out of order. Celestia, keep an eye out for a dimensional rift in room 206 of the East Tower of your palace. Truth, you can fight the monsters, but you must leave it up to the Natural Harmonies to truly defeat them, with the exception of the Changlings, that will be dealt with the love of two individuals named Princess Mi Amore Cadenza and Shining Armor and no, Truth, you are not allowed to make fun of his name."

I had to hold my laughter in. " Of course-heheh, I won't make fun of-snnrk- Shining Armor...." With that, I collapsed into laughter, with Celestia looking from the sidelines, bemused.

"*ahem* Anyways, Truth, you will be a quadruped. What form you take is up to you. You have three hours to get ready and go to the Department of Dimensional Rifts. Now go, I have to deal with a god dying on Earth-world."

I nodded and let Celestia go out first. I left the office and teleported back to the meadow that I was in before.

When I got there, Fred, my Fae-dragon, flew up to me. He had shiny iridescent scales and shimmery dragonfly-like wings. He had magic that could alter his size, but he likes to stay cat-sized.

"Hey, Fred."

*chirp*

"Yeah, I'm going to be leaving."

*chirp?*

"Oh it's probably more monster-fighting."

*chirooo~*

"No, I won't eat them or give any to you."

*chiii...*

"I know you like cockatrice meat, but I don't know if there are any."

*chirrup?*

"Yeah, I'm leaving in 3 hours."

*chaaa~*

"Oh, I'm not sure if you can come. But, if you insist..."

*chirp~*

"Alright. But what about Fish?"

*Mrrow?*

"Oh, you want to come?"

*Meow*

"Alright."

Fish was a two-tailed cat who had one eye blue, one green. Her fur was a brilliant blue which sparkled whenever she moved.

"Okay, now hold on."

With a fae-dragon and a two-tailed cat in tow, I teleported to the Department of Dimensional Rifts.
