//-------------------------------------------------------// the alternate dimension -by shadowshild612- //-------------------------------------------------------// //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 1 //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 1 Dillan woke up in a strange room, there were certains with the sun on them as the moon's light shone through. He looked around and saw a bed with a large white horse with a horn and wings. He stared at her in surprise before he started to slowly back up and tripped over something. *CRASH* “Who's there!?” The white horse woke up from the loud noise, and noticed Dillan staring at her. “And why did you think it was a good idea to break into my room!?” Dillan stuttered backing up. “I-i di-didnt mean t-to.” He said shaking a little. “I-I don't know what's going on, I don't know where I am, I don't know how I got here or anything but… I think I've crossed dimensions.” He said as the white horse turned on a light to be revealed as Princess Celestia. “What makes you say you've crossed over into another dimension?” Celestia asked. Dillan stated blankly at her before shaking his head. “Because alicorn's aren't real where I come from: earth ponies, Pegasi, unicorns, dragons, and alicorn's are all myths.” “And how do you know about what species live here in equestria?” Celestia asked glaring slightly. “Because where I come from…” Dillan paused thinking about the ramifications of telling her before he continued. “This whole place is a television show, a moving picture.” “I see…” Celestia said looking him over. “What is that device?” She asked looking at the Omnitrix. “Oh, it's a watch, a watch that lets me transform into different species of animals….well….more like aliens.” Dillan said. “How?” Celestia asked, before shaking her head. “i doubt it actually does that.” “I'll prove it.” Dillan said popping up the dile but was surprised. “There aren't any scans…” “Scans?” Celestia asked walking over to him. “Unidentified DNA detected.” The watch sounded as a yellow light passed over Celestia. “What was that?” Celestia asked looking herself over, not seeing anything out of the ordinary she looked back at Dillan. “It scanned your DNA now I can become an alicorn…. But it's the only scan I have, I wonder what happened to the rest.” Dillan said confused. “Well I'd you truly can become an alicorn then please demonstrate.” Celestia said. “My niece's wedding is three days from now, and i don't want anything disrupting it.” “Boy is she in for a surprise.” Dillan thought before he slammed down the Omnitrix. His physical form was surrounded by white light as he shifted into a ball, the ball began growing hooves, a horn, and wings. When the light disappeared, a stallion the size of Celestia was standing there, he had  light brown wavy hair (like Celestia's) and was completely white. “See?” “I- in credible.” Celestia said blushing. “You ok?” Dillan asked changing back. “Y-yes, you looked… g-good as a stallion.” Celestia said before coughing.“So that is the only form you have to transform into?” “Yes your Majesty.” Dillan said. “Well, I'll have the smartest ponies I know to help you, seeing as how you don't know how you got here or how to get back, I believe it'll be best if you stay in ponyville.” Celestia said. “Why is it always ponyville?” Dillan asked himself. “Very well.” He said. “You are an alien, and thus I'm making you an ambassador for now.” Celestia said.  “You may stay here with me tonight seeing as I'd the guards found you it would be troublesome.” “V-very well, thank you your Majesty.” Dillan said blushing a little, this was the first time he'd ever stay in a woman's room, even if they weren't the same spices, he was still nervious. “No need to be nervious my friend, you may take the bed, I have a nice little couch I can sleep on.” Celestia said. “I'm sorry ma'am but I must decline, my parents taught me to be a gentleman. You take the bed and I'll take the couch.” Dillan said bowing. “I-if you say so.” Celestia smiled getting in bed. “I'm truly sorry for what's happened.” Dillan said laying on the couch. “It's quite alright, I'll send for the ponies in the morning, goodnight...Um….” Celestia said not remembering his name. “Dillan.” Dillan said. “Goodnight Dillan.” Celestia smiled softly. //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 2 //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 2 Twilight, and spike were sitting in the living room of the crystal castle, when a note from Celestia beeped out of spike's mouth. “The princess needs our help, something about an alien appearing in her room.” Spike said. “What what!?” Twilight said shocked before her mane started to become frizzled. “Great.” Spike sighed when twilight teleported him and herself to canterlot, the other elements already there waiting. “Ah dear twilight.” Celestia said smiling softly. “Where's the alien?” Twilight asked. “Right here.” A voice said. They all looked to see a bipedal hairless monkey, it was wearing a white jacket, light blue pants, and a watch that was white. “Incredible.” Twilight said as she got closer, a yellow light went over her before Celestia could warn her. “The same thing happened to me.” Celestia said. “I told you it was nothing, it just scanned your DNA.” It said. “Scanned our DNA?” Twilight asked. “This device is called an Omnitrix, it collects DNA and uses the DNA to let me transform into the same species.” It said. “T-thats incredible.” Twilight said shocked. “So now you can turn Into an alicorn and a unicorn?” “Yup.” He said, well twilight was assuming it was a he. “Hi I'm Pinkie pie!” Pinkie said popping into existence in front of his face as the yellow light went over her as well. “And now an earth pony.” He said. “So how did you end up in the Princess's bed room?” Rainbow dash said getting in his face glaring, the light passing over her. He sighed and explained what happened at the convention and that he just woke up in the Princess's bed room. “And that's it, I'm a big fan of Ben ten so I know how to use the Omnitrix, but from what I've seen I only have four scans right now.” “The four pony scans.” Twilight said obviously. “Yup.” He said. “And what is thy name?” Luna asked. “Dillan.” It said. “We have news from the guards.” Luna said as some royal guards brought in something Dillan recognized. https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/fbHQyYqc8l3Uc_Br6YqVUXWJGS9T96_0ysc9NYW5XlU8XPw8Yv_YC1V4uMo2kKHFSRUpYz9I_CTsfv-gqW2HEYqzwDd2L6VnW70lWIrt7wvEyC73eUPbG27WGrp_sBoXog No!” He yelled surprising everyone. “The arms of Armageddon!!” He yelled as a guard reached out a hoof, before Dillan could stop him his hoof had to he'd the device and his magic was sucked out of him opening a strange portal. “This is bad!” Dillan yelled as what looked like a small child came through, a knife held in their left hand, a light green and tan striped sweater on, with brown shorts and shoes. They tilted their head curiously, their brown hair in a sort of grown out bowl cut, though it didn’t quite reach their shoulders yet. The child also had a slightly disturbing smile on their face as they looked around, two pink circles on their cheeks. “Huh.” Dillan said confused. “Usually it brings Eon.” He said as a bolt of magic hit his Omnitrix from the hands of Armageddon and a bipedal creature popped up. “Fuck!!!” “Greetings.” The child said, amused, looking around passively at the proceedings. “Hello.” Dillan said as all the ponies looked scared. “Don't mind them, this is all pretty new to them, the only reason I'm not freaking out is because I already figured the multiverse was real so meh.” “You should probably be scared.” The child said casually. “Probably, people say I'm not too smart.” Dillan shrugged. “I'm Dillan, and you are?” “My name is Chara.” The child said, brandishing their knife. “And I know what I was displaced as… which means, if I want to live, I’m going to need some HATE…” “Well… I hate the one that sent me here.” Dillan said as his mood grew dark and he muttered. “Asshole.” Chara blinked, lowering their knife as they walked over to Dillan, putting a hand on his shoulder, a black substance moving from his shoulder and into them. “This will suffice.” Chara said. “For a while.” “Well I have plenty of hate for him, and for anyone that threatens those I care about. And in a world like this I have a feeling that'll happen a lot… also what's a displaced?” Dillan asked. “Oh, just some silly stories I read while I was a different human.” Chara said dismissively. “So...Am I one?” Dillan asked. “You're the second you I have seen so far.” Chara said, tilting their head. “Second huh.” Dillan said nodding. “What the buck is going on!!?” Rainbow dash yelled. “Be quiet, rainbow pony.” Chara said. “Your voice is… annoying, to me.” They continued uncaringly. “What!?” Rainbow dash yelled angrily. “This should be interesting.” Dillan sighed. “Are you deaf, annoying Rainbow pony?” Chara asked, tilting their head. “Why you!!” Rainbow said about to charge at them. “That's enough Rainbow.” Celestia said, Making Rainbow settle for glaring at Chara. The child just let out a echoing noise of amusement, smirking. “So how did you get here?” Dillan asked Chara. “I… do not quite know, honestly.” Chara said, looking off to the side, frowning. “I was… in the void, barely holding onto what is left of my SOUL, when I saw that portal, or the HATEon the other side, and took my chance to get out of that place… it’s so dull.” “Well it's a good thing you didn't run into Eon.” Dillan said looking at the hands of Armageddon. “Why?” Chara asked, curious. “Eon is a multi dimensional being, he is ruthless and won't hesitate to destroy innocent people. He controls time and space to the point that a single blast can disintegrate you.” Dillan said shocking everyone. “I am already dead.” Chara said, shrugging. “If he kills this body, I will simply return to the void.” “He controls time, so if he hit you you'd be dead dead.” Dillan said. “I would still simply return to the void, I did not really bring my SOUL with me, it is safely hidden.” Chara said. “Alright.” Dillan shrugged. “I'm so confused.” Rainbow dash said as everyone (besides Dillan and Chara) nodded. “That is your default state of being.” Chara said simply. “What?” Rainbow asked. “She...He...They…. said that we're confused because we don't understand what's going on so our brains can't understand it.” Twilight said.[b “Egg head.” Rainbow said. “You may use They for me for now.” Chara said uncaringly. “Ok.” Twilight said. “Um not to be rude or anythin, but where are these two going to stay?” Applejack asked. “I was wondering if Dillan and…?” Celestia asked looking at Chara. “My name is Chara.” They said. “And Chara could stay at the crystal castle?” Celestia asked twilight. [b “Of course.” Twilight said eagerly. “I do not care.” Chara said. “Sure.” Dillan said. “Then have fun, Luna and I need to raise and lower the moon and sun.” Celestia said as she left. “So what now?” Dillan asked. “I don’t know.” Chara said, shrugging. “Let's go I have so many questions!!!” Twilight said happily. “Whatever.” Chara said. “Uh…. Ok.” Dillan said as her horn started glowing and they were all instantly in the castle of Friendship. “This is going to be annoying.” Dillan sighed. “I find you all annoying.” Chara said. “What did I do to deserve that?” Dillan asked. “It’s the HATE, don’t take it personally, you’re all lucky I am restraining myself to annoyance and not killing you all by letting it take me over.” Chara said casually. “Uh…” Dillan said confused before messing with his Omnitrix. “What are you doing?” Twilight asked. “Trying to figure out why I don't have any of the original Ben ten scans.” Dillan said. “Maybe because you do not have access to the planet the scans came from?” Chara suggested. “But then I wouldn't be able to scan new DNA either, when Ben scans DNA it's automatically sent to primus.” Dillan said. “I would imagine Azmuth would have to have had some kind of more… localized storage for scans until he could re-link it to primus, that must be what you are currently filling.” Chara explained slowly, as if talking to a dumb child. “First off, the Omnitrix is wirelessly connected to primus and can connect to it between dimensions, that's how Ben was always able to transform when he crossed dimensions…” Dillan said before Chara interrupted. “We are in a separate universe not dimension, it is a bit further of a distance.” Chara interrupted. “I was getting to that, the Hands of Armageddon only appear in a Ben ten universes, they are an interview dimensional/ universal gateway to the original Ben ten world.” Dillan said. “Eon uses them to.” He started before the Omnitrix glowed and a hologram of diamond Head popped up. “Hmm lag, then?” Chara suggested. “This must be quite far away from the other Ben 10 worlds, after all.” “Fair enough, and as long as I don't turn into Eon I'm happy.” Dillan said. “I would advice against turning into a Chronian while near it then, just in case.” Chara said. “True, now a chronosapien is another thing.” Dillan smirked. “Personally, I’d stay away from time things in general.” Chara said. “How come?” Dillan asked as more and more of the original scans popped up on the Omnitrix. “Time travel is a… fickle thing.” Chara said simply. “Fair enough.” Dillan shrugged before pausing. “But if I used clockworks powers and isolated it around you alone I could… help you?” Dillan said trying to not sound rude. “My history is not tied to this universe, you cannot travel into it’s past to get the rest of my SOUL.” Chara said, frowning. “I thank you for the offer however.” Dillan smiled softly. “Your welcome, I know what it's like to be something different….” “I cannot care with the current state of my SOUL if I do not want to snap at you, so I will chose to ignore you.” Chara said simply. “Ouch.” Dillan chuckled as twilight started asking questions. “So you two are humans?” Twilight asked. “I am.” Dillan said. “I might get back to you on that.” Chara said. “So what powers do you two posses?” Twilight asked. “Way too many to count.” Dillan said glancing at the Omnitrix. “But the main one is transformation.” “I could… provide a demonstration.” Chara said, tilting their head in thought. “I will require a little more HATE, to sustain myself.” “I still hate the way I was displaced.” Dillan said. Chara smiled a tiny bit, some black HATE leaving Dillan entering them. “Darling that's absolutely repulsive.” Rarity said. “So is your face, and I am not commenting on it.” Chara said casually. “How rude!” Rarity exclaimed. “If you do not have anything nice to say, keep it to yourself, annoying pony.” Chara said. “Now, I believe you wanted a demonstration, lavender pony, where shall we do this?” Twilight thought for a moment. “The outskirts of town.” She said teleporting us all there. “Alright, now what to demonstrate first?” Chara mused to themselves. “How about we spar? That way I can demonstrate my transformation powers as well.” Dillan said. “Very well.” Chara said. “Alright.” Dillan nodded looking through his watch. “This one should do.” Dillan said slamming down the dile,  and transformed into Feedback, He has two antennae and a tail each featuring a plug on its tip that allows him to draw energy to himself. He has four fingers on each hand with similar plugs on the tip of each finger. Feedback has only two front toes. He's black with a white and green color scheme around the symbol of the Omnitrix. https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/oBxB48KL8NKnzejc4OCuiiGIJU3YMFqoL-b9_cEGA2z0Zld_xtiJ2OmLGRCVXJ0T_kgNrTpOD21jIg2N09SRs9dU6DjBfUO98sX8YoUj6FynTFfzETl2dyGdSDMm_u26Yw “I do hope you know that it is likely feedback is unable to shoot anything back at me.” Chara commented as they brandished their knife. “What makes you say that?” Dillan asked. “My type of energy is unlike any in the ben 10 universe, so it is likely that Feedback has not evolved to absorb and counter it.” Chara said, shrugging. “The definition of feedback from Ben ten is literally he can absorb and redirect any energy.” Dillan said. “Any ben 10 universe energy, he has not encountered my kind, therefor he cannot abosrb and redirect it, because he has not evolved to be able to.” Chara said simply. “Now, enough talk, let’s FIGHT.” They said, vanishing as they teleported behind Feedback, slashing him across his back back. “Ow!” Dillan yelled before he slapped the Omnitrix and transformed back. “Ok I see what you meant, but how about this one.” He said transforming into Diamondhead. https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/Tq64nT5aouC3vIHFIftSYVRzpHWQ4SJBDu2VxLbl0Ue4-mevH3ICBJ0pmXhF_aJjUcEWkrl7P2RW_h4OMt3UesfcAFX4aqT4r3KaCRrNyT-ndHPYqF07KoltckPA_JPDnw “Now let's do this.” He said shooting them with Crystals. The child frowned a little, tilting to the side to casually dodge the crystals. “You will have to try shooting a little faster than that.” Chara said, knife glowing red. They slashed it in the Diamondheads general direction, a red Crescent speeding forwards so fast he had almost no time to dodge. Diamondhead slammed his fist into the dirt and made a huge Crystal grow out of the ground blocking the hit. The red crescent exploded on impact, cracking the crystal heavily. “Wow.” Dillan smirked before he made a crystal grow right underneath them, knocking them off balance for a second, using the second to surround their knife in a Crystal circle one too big to climb. “How was that?” He smirked. They just gave a unamused look, teleporting inside and grabbing the knife, before teleporting back out. “It was a slight annoyance.” They said simply, knife glowing purple as they slashed at him, a big purple crescent with two smaller behind it flying at him. “Cool.” Dillan smirked Making an even bigger Crystal grow to protect himself along with three others. The first two were obliterated, making smoke fill the air. Chara took this oppertunity to smile widely, knife slowly glowing a deeper and deeper red. “Welcome to my special hell~” They said in a sing-song, stabbing into the ground, making the entirety of the battlefield glow red, before they teleported away. “SHIT!!!” Dillan yelled Making a crystal ball to protect himself. The red flew upwards, battering and shattering the ball, cracking the diamondhead inside of it, before it passed. “Did you like my special hell?” Chara asked tauntingly, standing over him. “Ow.” Dillan said reverting back as a yellow light went over Chara. The light seemed to fizzle, like it couldn’t quite scan what it was trying to. “Hm.” Dillan said looking at the Omnitrix, before looking at Chara. “Corrupted DNA?” “I imagine that my current state would have that, yes, I am not even supposed to be alive, afterall.” Chara said, shrugging. “Well I suppose technically ghostfreak wouldn't be alive either… maybe.” Dillan said. “I believe that is just how his race operates, not if it is alive or not.” Chara commented, holding a hand down to help him up. “Thanks.” Dillan said grabbing their hand and stood up. “Was that enough information for you, lavender pony?” Chara asked, glancing at said pony. “Yes thank you.” Twilight said as Dillan slapped the Omnitrix but the symbol only went to his chest. “Thats… weird.” Dillan said. “I believe ben 10,000 could do something like that.” Chara commented. “Maybe that is what you are doing right now?” “That's with the ultimatix, as in ultimate evolution, the watch I have doesn't do that.” Dillan said confused. “Hmmm.” Chara hummed thoughtfully. “Maybe the omnitrix is trying to use the data it got from me, but does not know exactly how due to its corruption?” “But I slammed it on what looked like a normal scan…” dillan said touching the ground and became covered in the same material as the dirt. “Oh I'm an osmosian.” “Ah, that makes more sense.” Chara said. “Well, what shall we do now?” They asked. Dillan went back to normal and grabbed Chara's head attempting to absorb their DNA. His body started glowing and flashing before he had to let go, holding his head he looked at them. “Ok, that was interesting.” “It did not work, did it?” Chara asked, looking amused. “I don't know, how do you use your powers?” Dillan asked. “I need to focus on the several traits my powers come from.” Chara said, shrugging. “And, I also prefer to use something to send the powers out of, like my knife.” Dillan hummed and focused energy into his hand, and blasted a tree engulfing it in white flames.  “Cool.” “You seem attuned to fire, interesting.” Chara said thoughtfully. “Though, that was just a basic white attack, try focusing on INTEGRITY, or your morals.” “Ok.” Dillan said doing so. His hands started glowing blue, and a blue heart appeared over Twilights chest, the closest being with a SOUL in the area to grab. “W-what gout on!?” Twilight asked scared. “Good, you turned her SOUL blue, now if you lift your arm, slowly, she should slowly raise into the air.” Chara instructed, ignoring the lavender pony completely. Dillan slowly lifted his arm and twilight slowly starting rising. “Cool.” “If you’d want to actually damage the pony, you’d have to toss her around harder than that, but this was just a demonstration. Now, I can see your SOUL is INTEGRITY, and I think that that is all this form will give you access to, since the abilities that you got from me are… incomplete due to my current state of being.” Chara said, shrugging. “Alright.” Dillan said transforming back as twilight fell on her flank. “Sorry.” “That was incredible!” Twilight said. “I could do that to, if I wanted… I just prefer my knife attacks.” Chara said with a shrug. “It's getting kinda late, how about we get to bed?” Dillan said. “You can, I want to… explore.” Chara said. “Oh, ok.” Dillan said looking down a little. “Let's go.” He said to twilight who teleported them all away except Chara. Chara smiled a disturbing demonic smile as their brown eyes glew red, vanishing into town. //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 3 //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 3 Dillan woke up, and saw Chara sitting in a chair watching him creepily. “What the hell!?” Dillan said falling off the bed. “Greetings.” Chara said calmly. “Why were you watching me sleep?” Dillan asked. “Because I do not, and I needed something to do.” Chara said simply. “You talk in your sleep.” “What did I say?” Dillan asked blushing from embarrassment. “It sounded like you were having a wet dream.” Chara said. “It was… amusing.” “I...Um…” Dillan blushed. “It wasn't exactly a wet dream….” “Memory?” Chara asked, snickering a tiny bit. “What did I say exactly?” Dillan asked looking down. “I got here when it was less words more noises.” Chara said. “Oh…” Dillan said becoming depressed. “It was that dream again.” “What’s wrong?” Chara asked. “It's… nothing.” Dillan lied getting dressed. “Are you sure?” Chara asked, teleporting next to him. “I can see your SOUL… it is hurting.” “It was a memory of my old girlfriend, she had cheated on me right after I took her virginity, she said she didn't want me to find out so she let me fuck her first…” Dillan said tearing up. The top half of Chara's face was briefly shadowed, them seeming to… glitch in place for a couple seconds, before they calmed. “I am sorry for you… she obviously didn’t deserve you.” Chara said. Dillan chuckled bitterly. “She was my first, there's something wrong with me, I know it.” He gritted his teeth trying not to cry. “She said I was bigger and better than the other guy, but she said… that he was….” He started crying. “He was what?” Chara asked, rubbing his back as comfortingly as they could. “H...He was… more intense, more rough and stronger.” He said sobbing. “She said I wouldn't have been able to protect her… and I had been training to do that so it hit harder when she said that.” “Did she ever see you train?” Chara asked. “Yes, she watched me and even then she said I was: worthless, weak, pathetic, that I couldn't protect anyone…” Dillan said. “Really now? What did your training consist of?” Chara asked, trying to find some way to put his doubts to rest. “Push ups, back flips, squats, and that was all on my own, what she watched was me doing my karate tournament, I lost in the first round do to an injury.” Dillan said depressed. “Then she had no idea what you could do, so do not worry, when we sparred yesterday I could tell you were plenty strong.” Chara said. Dillan sighed and smiled softly. “Thanks.” He said getting up, and going to the door. “You're really strong too, I have to admit I wasn't expecting it from someone so cute.” He said leaving. Chara paused, flustered for a second, a surprise on their face. “W-what?” They asked to themselves, before shaking their head, getting their normal look on their face and deciding to ignore it for now. “You coming?” Dillan asked. “Yes.” Chara said simply, teleporting next to him. “i wonder if they have bacon and sausage.” Dillan said seeming a lot better. “Considering ponies are herbivores, I highly doubt it, but you never know.” Chara said as the two of them walked through the crystal castle. “Fair enough, I guess we can just have eggs.” Dillan shrugged. “I do not know if I need to eat anymore, this will be… interesting.” Chara said. “So what emotions do you still feel?” Dillan asked curiously. “I feel… strange shadows of all the normal feelings, I still have a SOUL, after all… just not much left of one, unlike, say, a FLOWEY, who would have none at all.” Chara said, tilting their head. “I suppose so, do you have any idea how to restore your SOUL?” Dillan asked. ] “Maybe if seven others would… lend me theirs for a while, I could use that GOD like power to restore my own.” Chara mused, before shrugging. “That is simply a guess, however, and I do not know if it would work.” “Well it would be nice to get to know the real you, if you're this cute now I can't imagine what you must have been like before.” Dillan said calmly. Chara expected the flirt this time, and was not caught off guard. “You do not even know my biological gender, and are flirting on me?” Chara asked, tilting their head. “I'm actually bi, so the gender thing doesn't effect me, and no I was just being nice.” Dillan shrugged. “Alright.” Chara said with a shrug. “Would you have minded if I was flirting with you? I mean after what happened with my ex I'm not ready to date again, but if I was someone as cute and awesome as you is my type.” Dillan smiled. “I do not care.” Chara said, shrugging. “Sure you don't.” Dillan smirked as they got into the throne room. “Hello.” Twilight said. “Hi.” Spike greeted. Chara waved, not bothering to speak.. “What's for breakfast?” Dillan asked. “Bacon and gems for spike and dafidil sandwiches for us.” Twilight said as Dillan ate some bacon. “DILLAN!?” “What?” Dillan asked. “You just ate bacon! Bacon is meat!” Twilight yelled. “Humans are omnivores.” Chara called out helpfully. “O-oh.” Twilight said. “Thank you.” Dillan whispered to Chara.[ “You are welcome.” Chara said, nibbling on some bacon. “I wonder what gems taste like.” Dillan said picking one up. “Um you'd break your teeth if you are one.” Twilight said. Spike walked in and Dillan got a scan for the Omnitrix from him and transformed into a dragon. Chara simply grabbed one, crunching into it. “H-how?” Twilight asked looking at Chara. “DETERMINATION.” Chara said, opening their mouth to show that their teeth were glowing red as they chewed on the gem. “That's awesome.” Dillan said chewing on a gem. Chara simply smirked, swallowing the gem and blinking in surprise for a second, before shrugging it off and smirking. “What's with the surprised look?” Dillan asked transforming back. “The gem seems to have given me a… boost in my DETERMINATION, I did not expect it to…” Chara said, trailing off, before shrugging. “Oh.” Dillan said. “So, what is on the agenda today?” Chara asked. Dillan was about to shrug before a letter popped out of spike's mouth. “The princess wants Dillan and Chara to come to canterlot so she can announce to everypony that they mean no harm.” Spike said. “That I suppose.” Dillan said to Chara. “This will be… interesting.” Chara said. “Yeah.” Dillan said as he left the table. Chara teleported next to him, skipping a little as they slipped their knife into their sleeve. “Why are you skipping?” Dillan asked. “To seem innocent and not a threat.” Chara replied simply, giving a childish smile. “That's seriously adorable.” Dillan chuckled. “Then it’s working.” Chara said, making the pink that was already on their cheeks naturally go into a more adorable shade. “Ok then.” Dillan said grabbing his wallet and some pictures from the nightstand in his room. “Let’s go then, shall we?” Chara said, skipping towards the train station. “Alright.” Dillan said walking with them. “Also, are you biologically a boy or a girl?” “You’ll have to find out.” Chara said teasingly, smirking and skipping ahead. “Is that a challenge?” Dillan asked smirking. They simply shot a smirk back, before putting the childish look on their face and vanishing as they teleported to the train station. Dillan got to the train station and smirked at them. “Really? How are we supposed to get tickets?” “I was gonna hide in the back.” They said, smiling innocently. “Sounds good to me I guess, and how am I supposed to find out your gender?” He asked grinning. “That’s for you to figure out.” Chara said with a careless shrug, looking around before bolting into the caboose car to hide, Dillan following them. “Well I can only think of two ways.” Dillan said. “If both of them are dirty, I’m slapping you.” Chara said, seeing a crate and jumping in it. Dillan hid behind the crate they were in and stood more around it. “Well they are, I can't think of any other way other than asking but I already did that.” He said. “Then think of another way.” Chara whispered. “Now shut up, before we’re caught.” Dillan thought long and hard as the train moved. “Why didn't you just teleport us to canterlot?” Dillan whispered. “I do not want to corrupt you and turn you into a glitch.” Chara said simply as the train neared its destination. “So you care about me? Isn't that sweet.” Dillan smiled as the train stopped. “It is not a fun existence.” Chara said, hopping out of the crate. “Let’s go.” “Alright.” Dillan said getting up and going out the train car with them. Chara resumed their childish act as the two of them went out, humming to themself. “Your really cute when you do that.” Dillan chuckled. “Then I am pulling the act off.” Chara said simply. “Why do you need an act?” Dillan asked ignoring the looks all the ponies were giving them. “To look innocent and make the ponies underestimate me and you by proxy.” Chara said. “Oh ok.” Dillan said as they got to the castle. “Ah hello Chara, hello...Dillan.” Celestia said fluttering her eyelashes at Dillans name, making him uncomfortable. Chara tilted their head, narrowing their eyes a little, but decided to not do anything just yet. “H-how celestia.” Dillan said uncomfortably. “Follow me please.” Celestia smiled leading them to the balcony. “Okay.” Chara said, skipping between Celestia and Dillan. “So Dillan, how have you liked equestria?” Celestia asked smiling seductively at him. “I...Uh…” Dillan said looking away. “It’s a beautiful day outside.” Chara seemingly randomly commented. “Yes very beautiful.” Dillan nodded, making celestia blush thinking he was complimenting her. “Why thank you.” Celestia smiled Making Dillan shudder. “So, what exactly will be going on here, Celestia?” Chara asked. “Oh I'm going to explain to my subjects that you two aren't dangerous, and I'm also going to announce Dillan and yourself as ambassadors from another world.” Celestia smiled looking at Dillan again. “And something else if Dillan is up for it.” “Maybe you should ask Dillan what this thing is now instead of during a public event?” Chara suggested, stopping. “I suppose that is correct, Dillan as one of the ambassadors of another planet… would you court me?” Celestia asked blushing. “I...I…” Dillan said surprised. “I-im not sure that's a good idea.” “Oh please, it would make all of us happy, we would be happy together and my subjects could look forward to a prince of equestria later.” Celestia said persistently. “I….i….” Dillan said. Chara at their eye level could see Dillans hand shaking and fear in his eyes. “Dillan is currently getting over something.” Chara said, giving Celestia a look. “It would not be wise to get in a relationship at this time.” “Oh but please?” Celestia persisted more. “I can't!” Dillan said leaving in a hurry. “Wait!” Celestia called but got stopped by Chara. “He said he cannot.” Chara said coldly, the upper half of their face shadowed. “It would be most… unwise to persist more.” “B-but…” Celestia said about to follow Dillan. Chara vanished in a burst of pure speed, putting their knife to Celestias neck, their hand around her horn. “I said it would be… unwise.” They growled, more threateningly, previously brown eyes flashing a demonic red. “A-alright.” Celestia said leaving in a puff of smoke and magic. Chara took a deep breath, calming, before hiding their knife and returning their eyes to normal, teleporting to Dillans side. “I-i can't.” Dillan kept repeating with his hands over his head. “Calm down, Dillan.” Chara said, walking over and rubbing his back as comfortingly as they could. “I… persuaded Celestia to not attempt to court you at this time.” Dillan stopped repeating the craze but still had his head covered as the other ponies got there. “What happened y'all?” Applejack asked. “Celestia got… pushy on a subject that is… sensitive to Dillan.” Chara said. “What do you mean?” Fluttershy asked. “I-its personal.” Dillan muttered standing up, shakily. “Do not get… pushy.” Chara warned. “But we wanna help him be all smiley wiley again not sadly wady.” Pinkie pie bounced hugging Dillan’s leg. “N-not now pinkie.” Dillan muttered. “I ask you kindly to give Dillan some space.” Chara said. “But…” pinkie said. “Twilight can you teleport me back to the castle please?” Dillan asked. “A-alright.” Twilight said about to teleport him away. “I'll throw you a cheer up already party when we get back.” Pinkie said sounding insensitive. “I advise against that.” Chara said, eyes getting a red sheen. “It is not the best thing for him at this time.” “I appreciate it though Pinkie.” Dillan said, as twilight teleported him away a single tear fell to the ground. “Since Dillan is no longer here, I will stay, if only for the announcement.” Chara said, eyes going back to normal. “Alright.” Twilight said as they went back to the balcony. “My subjects, I'm sure you noticed the two beings that were walking through town.” Celestia said on the balcony. “They are Dillan, and Chara, they are ambassadors from another world. They mean you no harm.” Celestia said letting Chara walk up to the balcony. “This is Chara, but where is Dillan?” Celestia asked looking behind Chara to the entrance. “Dillan is back in Ponyville, mentally recovering.” Chara said neutrally. “Oh…” Celestia said sadly. “This is Chara, it appears Dillan left for some unknown reason.” Celestia said not wanting her subjects to know the truth. “Greetings.” Chara said, giving a adorable childish smile. “It's truly a shame Dillan couldn't make it, he made quite the impression when we first met, and now that he isn't here is something I cannot fathom.” Celestia lied again. “Oh well.” Chara said, shrugging. “Is there anything going on between you and this Dillan?” A new pony asked Celestia. “Well I did ask him to court me but nothing is guaranteed yet.” Celestia giggled. “Dillan is not ready for a relationship at this time.” Chara said, somehow managing to keep the childish tone through their anger. “Oh you're just saying that, with how he acted when we first met I bet it won't be long until he's begging me to mate with him.” Celestia giggled. “Stop.” Chara said simply, giving Celestia a red eyed look. “Why should I?” Celestia giggled like a filly. “He's quite cute if I must say.” “Well, because friend.” Chara said, walking over and putting an arm around Celestia's neck, concealing the backwards held knife to her throat. “He is not interested at this point in time, so please, do not attempt anymore until he says that he is ready.” “I… I understand.” Celestia said scared. “Good.” Chara said cheerfully, hiding the knife again and releasing Celestia. “Now, if you excuse me, I must comfort my friend.” Chara added, teleporting away. Dillan was laying in bed thinking about everything, his head was covered as he silently cried as Chara teleports back in. “Dillan, are you alright?” Chara asked as gently as they could… which was not very, walking over and sitting next to him on the bed. “I'll be fine.” Dillan sighed laying on his back and uncovered his head. “What was up with celestia? Does she need to be rutted that badly?” Dillan chuckled. “I think she needs to go tell someone to lay her if she’s that needy.” Chara said. “Yeah.” Dillan said looking at a wall. “She probably just wants me as a trophy of some kind, and then she'd just turn around and fuck a stallion.” He said sadly. “Simply do not let her fool you, wait for someone with genuine feelings.” Chara suggested. “I understand that, but all of my past relationships have ended the same way. I'm not sure if…” Dillan said trailing off. “Dillan.” Chara said seriously. “The multiverse is a big place, there’s someone out there for you.” Dillan hugged Chara. “Thank you.” Chara froze at the hug, looking a little uncomfortable, patting Dillans back awkwardly. “Sorry.” Dillan said noticing their uncomfortableness, letting go. “I am not… a physical contact person.” Chara said. “It is fine.” “It's been hard today, last night wasn't all that better either.” Dillan said laying down. “You can lay down if you want, I don't mind.” “Thank you.” Chara said, doing so. “Your welcome, it's nice to have a friend I can talk to.” Dillan said. “It is.” Chara agreed. “So how did you end up like this?” Dillan asked. “Like all glitchy and stuff.” “It is simply a part of my displacement.” Chara said with a shrug. “Why did you choose this, as a costume...Right?” Dillan asked. “Actually… I did not quite get that luxary, while alive.” Chara said, looking off to the side. “Did… did you die and then get displaced?” Dillan asked sadly. “Yes.” Chara said, nodding. “Oh..  I didn't get to choose either, well I did and didn't. I had a dream and in the dream I had this.” He said holding up the Omnitrix. “And the next day I went to a conversation and a man more or less made me buy it.” He said glancing at them. “How did it happen, if I can ask.” “I was betrayed by my best friend.” Chara said bitterly, scowling. “If I could, I’d cut the little twerp into pieces and explode his remains.” “Hey.” Dillan said putting a hand on their shoulder. “I know it was painful, and I know you want revenge, but if you actually did that then you'd be just as bad as them.” “I know.” Chara said. “I simply don’t care, we had been friends since we were children…” Chara trailed off. “You loved them didn't you?” Dillan asked. “I did.” Chara said, nodding sadly. “I simply did not say anything, to preserve our friendship.” “I'm so sorry.” Dillan said sadly. “My first girlfriend was my best friend as well, and you know how that turned out.” “At least yours attempted to be kind.” Chara said bitterly. “I did not see the signs of mines betrayel until it was too late.” “How did it happen?” Dillan asked looking at them. “If you wanna tell me.” “I will be vague.” Chara said. “Torture.” “They didn't.” Dillan said. “They did.” Chara said. “Every kind, slowly, painfully, until I was barely alive, and then they snapped my neck.” “Hey.” Dillan said looking at them. “They're not here now and you can trust me, I wouldn't do anything like that to you.” He smiled a sincere smile. “And if anyone tried I'd kill them.” He said as his SOUL of INTEGRITY pulsed a little. “Thank you.” Chara said, calming a little, before getting up. “Now, if you excuse me, I need to clean myself of the memories.” Chara stated, putting their knife on a dresser and walking into the bathroom. Dillan smiled softly and sat up, and stretched a little getting up and going into the kitchen getting some food. He ate for a bit, before going to the bathroom, forgetting Chara was in there for a second he opened the door and saw them wet and naked. Chara let out a shrill sounding noise, covering themself with the towel next to them. “S-sorry I forgot for a second.” Dillan said noticing they had a vagina and dick, getting a noticeable boner before he closed the door. “Sorry!!” “Knock when a bathroom door is closed!” Chara shouted from the other side of the door, sounding very embarrassed. “I'm sorry!” Dillan yelled. “You...Looked nice though.” “NOW IS NOT THE TIME FOR THAT, PERVERT!” Chara exclaimed. “I'm not a pervert! I was trying to be nice!!!” Dillan yelled jumping on the bed on his stomach. “Says the one walking into the bathroom without knocking!” Chara yelled back. “I forgot, it was an accident I'm sorry!” Dillan yelled covering his face with his hands. “Why am I such a screw up!!!”  He yelled in his head. “It’s alright.” A more calm sounding Chara said minutes later, walking out fully clothed, hair still slightly wet. “Just remember to knock next time.” Dillan looked at them blushing. “Y-you do have a nice body though.” “I really don’t, I have no curves and am just normal in every sense of the word, appearance wise.” Chara said, not like they were upset about how they looked, but simply stating a fact. “And… that's what I like…” Dillan said. “Nothing too curvy, nothing too flashy or anything…” He said blushing. Chara was caught off guard at how genuine he sounded, and their pink cheeks went a couple shades darker. Dillan glanced at them. “I'm really sorry, I'm no good at this stuff…” He said patting the bed next to him blushing still.  Chara said nothing, simply taking the offer, sitting down. “I… I really like you, you've listed to me when I needed help, you stood up for me when celestia and the others were all crazy, I feel safe around you. I know it doesn't make sense, and I know we just met and everything but your really cool. I'm honestly not ready to date again, and I'm sure you're skeptical, but…” he said blushing deeper. “Stop.” Chara said simply, holding up a hand. “A lot has happened, to both of us, very recently, we should wait until we have had time to… cope.” “I...i… know that.” Dillan said looking down. “I was going to ask if you'd be interested in a date once we're both ready to….” “Sure.” Chara said, giving a small, genuine smile. Dillan smiled back and booped their nose before chuckling. “Did you notice we have an audience now?” Dillan asked. “What?” Chara asked. Dillan pointed to the door, a slight crack was seen as the ponies scrambled. “I wonder when They got back.” “Nosy little…” Chara growled, grabbing their knife and going to the door. The knife glowed green as they slashed multiple times, making a thick green barrier appear, trapping the door in place. “Um…” Dillan chuckled nervously. “What was that for? You could have just closed and locked the door.” “Magic, could unlock it, now I’ll feel when they try to blast it if they’re that noisy.” Chara said, putting their knife back down and laying in the bed. “Um...What are you doing? I thought you didn't have to sleep?” Dillan asked laying down as well. “I said I do not have to, not that I cannot.” Chara said simply, pulling the covers over their form in frustration. “Hey.” Dillan said, uncovering them. “Forget about the ponies, it doesn't matter what they saw or think, to me tonight has been fun, and I hope it was the same for you.” Dillan smiled getting under the covers as well, looking at them. “Your a really cool person and I'm glad I met you.” “...you to.” They mumbled, smiling a tiny bit again. “Your friend is an idiot for what they did, if I was them I would have rather died then let it happen to you.” Dillan said falling asleep. Chara simply smiled, all redness leaving their eyes, soft brown replacing them as they gave a genuine smile, before going to sleep as well. //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 4 //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 4 Dillan woke up in the early morning and noticed Chara still sleeping, he smiled and got up slowly going into the bathroom for a quick shower. Chara woke to the sound of the shower running, stretching and sluggishly grabbing their knife. Chara smirked, getting an idea, putting their knife on the counter to the bathroom sink as they walked in. “Hey!” Dillan said blushing, covering himself up. “I figured that since you got to see my ‘private area’, then I would should get to see yours.” Chara said calmly. “Um…” Dillan said. “Did you see it?” “Yes.” Chara said with a neutral look. “Um...So what now?” Dillan asked uncovering himself and continuing to wash up. “If you want you could join me.” “I am fine, I took a shower last night, remember?” Chara asked calmly, grabbing their knife. “If you do not mind, however, I need some HATE.” “Go ahead.” Dillan said as he washed his hair focusing his HATE for his ex girlfriend. (And there was a lot of it) Chara smiled, reaching a hand out and absorbing the HATE, sighing in relief. “That is much better, thank you.” Chara said, walking out of the room… leaving the door wide open. “Seriously!?” Dillan yelled as he got out and wrapped himself in a towel. Chara simply looked back with a teasing smile, waving as they left. “Bitch.” Dillan chuckled getting dressed. “So what should we do today?” Dillan asked Chara in the main bedroom, because the main door still had the green barrier on it. “I do not know, I hear the others were going to go on a picnic of some sort.” Chara said, dispelling the barrier. “A picnic? Ok.” Dillan shrugged smirking as he quickly kissed their cheek. “That's for leaving the door open.” “Do it more often then?” Chara asked, a faint blush over what was already on their face. “What leave the door open or kiss your cheek?” Dillan asked. “Because even though I said it was for leaving the door open I don't need an excuse for kissing you…” Dillan blushed as well. “Let’s just go.” Chara said, walking forward. “Alright.” Dillan smirked kissing their cheek again before walking ahead of them, winking at them. Chara just sighed, as if in annoyance, shaking their head and smiling slightly. “Sup.” Dillan yawned as they got to the throne room. “Howdy.” Applejack smirked as pinkie was singing. “Dillan and Chara sitting in a tree~” Pinkie pie sang Making Dillan grone. “Seriously?” Dillan asked. “I did not know that we were all eight.” Chara deadpanned, unamused at the singing. “It's pinkie pie, just ignore her.” Twilight said. “And what's your excuse for spying on us?” Dillan asked. “We wanted to see if you were alright darling but then things got cute.” Rarity said. “When, exactly, did you start spying?” Chara asked. “Um…. Right when Dillan asked you out on a date once you were both feeling up to it.” Fluttershy said. “That is not that bad.” Chara said, shrugging. “Yeah, and they didn't hear anything after.” Dillan smiled remembering last night. “Good.” Chara said simply. “May we get on with the picnic now?” “Yes quite.” Rarity said. “Alright.” Twilight said as they all left. They were all at the picnic, and twilight got a letter and then started singing. “This isn't normal right?” Dillan whispered to Chara. “I have a feeling it is.” Chara deadpanned, looking very unamused. “This is going to get annoying fast isn't it?” Dillan whispered. “It already is.” Chara growled, twitching dangerously. “Hey relax, this is just their way of expressing themselves.” Dillan said as twilight finished singing. “I will try.” Chara said simply. “I doubt it'll be that bad.” Dillan chuckled. “I have a feeling they sing… a lot.” Chara said, frowning. “Whatever… when are we going?” “Right now.” Twilight said angrily. “I will meet you all there.” Chara said, starting to walk towards Canterlot, before teleporting away. “Let's go.” Dillan said as they all went  to the train station, and then to canterlot. “Shining armor!!” Twilight said angrily when they all got to canterlot. “Why didn't you tell me you were getting married!?” “Twily I wanted to but there was a threat to canterlot.” Shining armor said as he used his magic to re enhance the force field, as shining armor and twilight spoke, Dillan sat down and put his hand in his lap. “This is going to be boring.” He muttered. “Most likely.” Chara commented, appearing next to him. “Oh hey.” Dillan said smirking. “Why don't we look around?”  Chara shrugged, not caring.  Dillan stood up and started walking through the castle, he noticed a pink alicorn. “Hi.” Dillan said to her. “H-hello.” The alicorn said surprised. Chara narrowed their eyes, suddenly tense. “Your SOUL does not appear like the other ponies.” They stated. “W-what?” The alicorn said sweat dropping. “Of course I'm a pony.” “Unidentified DNA detected.” The Omnitrix stated as a yellow light went over the pink alicorn. “No your not.” Dillan said. “What have you done?” Chara asked, sliding their knife out, it glowing a light blue as they pointed it at the false-pony, a light blue rope of a similar light wrapping around the false ponies neck. “Do not attempt to teleport, or you will lose your head.” “I...I…” The pony said. Dillan popped up the dile on the Omnitrix, right as a circle of green flames surrounded him. “What!?”  Chara growled, pulling a little with their knife, making the light blue rope dig into the false ponies throat warningly. “Let me go or you'll never see your friend again.” The ponies said as the circle started to become a dome and shrink. “I know perfectly well that you cannot teleport him far, it will not be hard to find him.” Chara growled. “Let him go, or you don’t live.” The pony whiltered and let Dillan go right as the other ponies came in. “What are you doing to my fiance!?” Shining armor yelled. “This is not your fiance, it does not have a ponies SOUL.” Chara said calmly. “That's impossible!” Shining armor yelled. “Release her!” “She isn't your fiance shining armor, she's this.” Dillan said slapping down the Omnitrix and transformed into a changeling. “A changeling!?” Celestia and Luna said. “I have a feeling mind control is involved here, would someone please restrain the groom until such a time that he is freed of it?” Chara suggested. Dillan transformed back and then into Diamondhead, wrapping Shining Armor up in Crystals. “How's that?” “That should suffice… Celestia, Luna, what would you recommend is done to this creature?” Chara asked. “Well first we need to find out where the real bride is.” Dillan said. “He has a point, we need to find our niece.” Luna said. “I shall keep the creature restrained then.” Chara said. “She tried to teleport me somewhere, I'm betting it was the same place she has the bride.” Dillan said getting in the ponies face. “Where is she?” He asked but the pony/changeling just head-butted him making him bleed. Chara, calmly, walking up to the Changeling, knife still restraining her… and socked her right in the face, making the chitin around the changelings nose make a violent crunch, the wound bleeding as the changeling was knocked out. “Wow.” Dillan said. “What brought that up?” “You are currently the closest thing I have to a friend on this world, I do not like people hurting my friends.” Chara said calmly, the knife losing its glow as they let it dangle at their side. Chara reached out, a strange neon pink light exiting Chrysalis. “You do not deserve the love you have taken, insect.” Chara stated coldly to the knocked out being. Their knife then glew a sickening black, tapping the ball of love with it, turning the love into HATE. “I will be repurposing it for myself.” They said, absorbing the new ball of hate. “Wow.” Dillan said again as Celestia got uncomfortably close to Dillan as she started looking at his wound. “Um…” Dillan said uncomfortably. “Celestia.” Chara said warningly. “I'm just trying to heal his wound.” Celestia said innocently as Dillan took the opportunity to move as far from her as possible. “You are using magic, you do not need to rub against him.” Chara said. Celestia pouted. “Fine.” Dillan glanced at Chara. “Thank you.” “You are welcome.” Chara said, walking to a window, before frowning. “Is it supposed to be cloudy today?” “No it's not.” Rainbow dash said. “Then what is that dark cloud?” Chara asked, pointing to something the rest couldn’t see. “Oh no.” Dillan said. “When I was a changeling I mentally heard that there was an army of changelings outside the bubble, apparently changelings work like a bee hive.” He said. “This will be… fun.” Chara said, smiling darkly. The fake pony woke up groggily, using her magic to teleport Dillan away. Chara growled, spinning on their head and tossing their knife directly into the changelings head, killing it. “Y-y-you killed her!?” Fluttershy said shaking. “She would have only came back to cause problems later.” Chara said coldly, walking over and stepping on the changelings head, grabbing the handle of their knife and grunting as they pulled it out. “T-thats murder!” Luna said “I am sorry, it appears we were not properly introduced.” Chara said, turning to the ponies and smiling demonically, their eyes turning into red slits. “Greetings, I am Chara… the demon that comes when you call their name.” “D-demon!?” Everyone yelled. “I did not even try that hard to hide it, I outright told you I feed on hate.” Chara said, smiling wider. “Do not worry, ponies as much as you… annoy me, you are not a threat, and therefor will be left alone. The changelings however have earned my ire… and will be eliminated.” A diamond arm burst through the floor as Diamondhead and the real pink pony alicorn came through. “Not all changelings right? I am one technically.” Dillan asked. “No, only her hive.” Chara said. “Which, conveniently, is right outside.” “Want some help?” Dillan asked. “This world is kinda boring.” “No, I will do it alone, we can spar later.” Chara said, smiling widely. “I’m about to have a good time~” Chara said, giggling demonically, it echoing. “Aww, I wanna have fun too.” Dillan pouted. “If you win in the spar, we can have the date early.” Chara whispered into his ear, smiling. Dillan blushed. “O-ok.” Chara smiled, teleporting above the shield covering Canterlot. “Greetings, changings, I am CHARA the demon that comes when you call their name.”  Chara said, knife slowly glowing yellow as they charged a attack. “Your queen has angered me, so she is dead… and you are next.” I continued, smiling wider at the HATE I felt coming from them. “Kill It for killing our queen!!” A changeling yelled as they all charged at them. Chara smiled, pointing their knife forward and letting the attack lose… a large yellow beam cutting through the swarm of Changelings, killing most of them in one shot. “Ah, my favorite kind of LOVE.” Chara commented as their LV raised to 15. They smiled as they charged the changeling hoard, knife bared. “I-it's insane, run!!!!” Another changeling yelled as they tried to leave”. “No you don’t.” Chara said, knife flashing red as a similarly colored barrier appeared surrounding them and the changelings. “You only leave DEAD!” Chara shouted, charging. “N-no, please!” The changelings cried. “MERCY or GENOCIDE.” Chara sang, as if remembering something they had listened to. “SORRY FOR YOU, YOU DON’T GET TO DECIDE!” They said, knife glowing red. “Now… welcome to my special hell~” Chara sing-songed, slashing forwards with the red blade, maknig a giant wave of red DETERMINATION fly, killing the changelings. “That was cathartic.” Chara said, smiling as they allowed the red barrier to explode, breaking the pink one below it. They then teleported back to the group, them now at LV 20. “Have fun?” Dillan asked. “Yes.” Chara said, smiling. “I am even stronger now, have fun beating me in our spar later… but first, I believe a wedding is supposed to be taking place?” “I should have guessed.” Dillan thought angrily, but kept it to himself. “Yeah, but they'll probably need a day or so to get everything set and done now.” Dillan said as the ponies “I guess we can spar now then.” Chara said, smiling widely. “Shall we?” “Fine.” Dillan said not caring, going to the garden. “I will not be fighting at full, it is not fair since you have no practice with the omnitrix, while I have experience in my… abilities.” Chara said, smiling. “Sure.” Dillan smirked, throwing a punch at them, instantly turning into humungousaur, hitting their stomach and sent them skidding back. Chara grunted in pain, sliding back, looking up smiling. “Don’t be afraid to be rough!” They exclaimed, briefly glitching before running forward, knife glowing red. Dillan smirked and turned into his osmosian form and put a hand over the Omnitrix absorbing all the DNA in it, before running forward with XLR8 speed and stopped right In Front of Chara. “In what way?” He asked smiling as he kissed them on the lips. Chara sputtered, knife glow vanishing as they stopped, eyes wide and taking a step back in surprise, vulnerable. Dillan used the powers he had to use super speed to take their knife and channels the powers he got from Chara, sending a red blast at them. Chara teleport away from the attack, smiling widely. “A challenge, good!” They cried, hands glowing yellow briefly, before a revolver formed. “Let’s try a little bit of this, shall we?” She asked, shooting at him. Dillan smiled and used his absorbed diamondhead powers to grow a protective sphere around himself, blocking the attack. He heard a giggle from behind, not reacting quite in time for Charas slash at his back, them having retrieved their knife at some point. “Not bad.” Dillan said as his shirt ripped revealing cannonbolt like shell on his back. He grabbed Chara's arms and put his forehead to theirs, looking into their eyes. “You know we could do anything in here and no one could notice.” He smiled. Chara simply smiled, knife glowing red. “Welcome to my special hell~” They sing songed, throwing the knife into the ground, making it turn red, before teleporting away to grab it, then vanish from sight. Dillan transformed into cannonbolt completely and curled up as the ground exploded, feeling pain through his protective shell. Chara giggled as they re-appeared. “This is fun.” They said. Dillan reverted back to normal, covered in dirt and dust, unmoving. Charas smile quickly dropped, walking over, worried. “Did I overdo it?” They asked as they neared him. Dillan smirked and grabbed them pinning them to the ground, transforming into an osmosian again, blasting their knife with a white blast, making it fly out of sight. “Nope.” “You win.” Chara said, sighing in mock disappointment. “Nice try, I know you have more fight in you than that.” Dillan smirked. “I could, but I would end up killing you if I did anything else… your HP is at ten.” Chara said. “You can see health?” Dillan asked getting up, and holding out a hand for them. “Yes, it is an ability called ‘CHECK’.” Chara said, accepting the hand up. “Oh.” Dillan said as a blush formed. “S-sorry about the kiss…” “It is fine, it was a good tactic to catch me off guard.” Chara praised. “Do not expect it to work twice.” “I… I liked it.” Dillan admitted. “It… was not bad.” Chara agreed, faintly blushing. “S-so what now?” Dillan asked. “I believe you won, so that means that you may take me on a date now.” Chara said. “I may?” Dillan chuckled. “I suppose…” Dillan said thinking. “What would you like to do?” “I have already killed an entire species, so that is out.” Chara said, shrugging. “Perhaps dinner or a picnic would suffice?” “Well you don't really need to eat though… I wish they had movies here.” Dillan said. “I believe they have theater's.” Chara commented. “I suppose, but that costs money…” Dillan sighed. “I suck at this, I guess this is why she cheated.” Dillan said sadly sitting down. “Dillan, I just saved the entirety of Canterlot from a hostile invasion in the sky, somepony will have have seen it and vouch for us, we should be fine.” Chara said. “I suppose.” Dillan said. “You could also take me to somewhere you like.” Chara suggested. “Hmmm…” Dillan thought for a moment. “I haven't really seen that much of equestria.” “Just attempt to make it romantic in some way.” Chara said, shrugging. “Alright…” Dillan said thinking. “How about we go flying?” “That sounds fun.” Chara said. “Alright.” Dillan said transforming into a dragon. “Hop on.” He said opening his wings. Chara smiled, teleporting on. “Do you have to teleport all the time?” Dillan asked chuckling. “It is faster.” Chara said, shrugging. “Alright.” Dillan laughed, taking off into the air. Chara smiled wider, holding onto one of his spines. “That tickles.” Dillan laughed. Chara giggled, starting to stroke the spine, trying to tickle him. “Come on!” Dillan laughed louder. Chara smiled evilly, reaching back to stroke two at the same time. “Stop please!!” Dillan laughed louder, starting to flail around. “Alright.” Chara said, relenting, before moving so that they were on top of his head, holding onto his horns to stay on. “Am I comfortable?” Dillan asked. “Very.” Chara said, smiling, enjoying the view. “I like the breeze.” Dillan smiled. Chara hummed in agreement, rocking a little. “What should we do now?” “I dunno.” Chara admitted. “I’ve never… done anything like this before.” “This is your first date?” Dillan asked. “Y-yes.” Chara said, blushing more. Dillan flipped around, tossing Chara into the air and caught them while gliding on his back, smiling at them. “It's ok, I'll make it special.” He smiled softly at them. Chara blushed more, their eyes finally returning to their brown from the red vertical slits they were before. “You're really cute when you blush.” Dillan smiled. “T-thanks.” Chara stuttered. “You don't have to be nervous.” Dillan smiled landing on a cliff, transforming back. “Look.” He said as the sun started setting and the moon rose. “This is… nice.” Chara said. Dillan smiled and kissed their cheek. “It is.” He said sitting down, with Chara on his lap. “Especially with you here.” Chara smiled a large, genuine smile, closing their eyes and leaning back into DIllan. “I have an idea if you want to eat.” Dillan smiled. “What’s that?” Chara asked, their voice sounding more… human. “Well, spike has a bunch of meat in his own little fridge so I could make us some spaghetti or something.” Dillan smiled. “That sounds nice.” Chara said. Dillan looked up at the night sky, and smiled softly humming a soft tune that his mother used to sing. Eventually, Chara fell asleep, smile and cuddling into Dillans chest. Dillan smiled and chuckled lightly, transforming into his dragon form again and slowly flew back to the castle without waking Chara up. He got back to the crystal castle and went to his room, laying down with Chara laying on his chest transforming back and falling asleep. //-------------------------------------------------------// Prologue //-------------------------------------------------------// Prologue Dillan was walking through the convention center, and was thinking about the dream he had the previous night.  He had seen himself, fighting a floating man with black energy balls in his hands. Dillan saw himself protecting a small yellow filly with a pink bow in her red mane, and an older mare with an orange coat, yellow mane, a straw hat and three apples on her flank. Dillan knew these two as Applebloom, and Applejack popular characters from the my little pony friendship is magic series. “What a weird dream.” Dillan said to himself, as he remembered the fact that his dream form had an Omnitrix, the second version from Alien force the only difference was it's symbol was white. “And why would I have an Omnitrix?” Dillan was so lost in thought that he didn't notice a man dressed in blue had walked up to him and accidentally bumped into him. “Oh sorry.” Dillan said. “It's ok.” The man said as he walked behind a counter. “Would you like to buy anything?” Dillan looked at the contents of the display case he saw: an orb, a katana, a gun….and the second version of the Omnitrix. “That's just like the one from my dream…” Dillan muttered. “Is that so?” The man said pulling it out, and opening it putting something in it before handing it to him. “thatll be 20$” “Uh…” Dillan said. “You said you dreamt about it and now you find it here, it must be fate.” The man said. Dillan wasn't sure, but he knew his dream was just a dream and bought the device. Once he had gotten outside, the dile popped up and started glowing in a flash Dillan… was gone.
