“Sure, by all means you can join the fight,” Solaris said as he looked at Contact from his throne. “Heh, we’ll even let you pick which front you go to.”

“What front we go to has no significance to us,” they replied.

“Fine, we’ll send you to the Chaos League Front,” Selene said.

“Fine, who will lead us?” they asked.

“Your leader will be Colonel Bloodrush,” Solaris said. “We will notify her before you leave.”

“Fine, we’ll wait in our room until we are told to leave,” they said before they began to leave the throne room.

“We didn’t say you could leave our presence,” Selene said as he rose from his throne.

“And how will you stop us?” they said as they turned to face Selene.

“Colonel Chia has gone missing,” Solaris said as he stood as well.

“And why should we be concerned?” they asked.

“Because, if history is any indication,” Selene started, “she has gone to the Tech Faction’s main base, F.F. Cloudsdale; has been captured; and is going to give them the Signet Case.”

“She did this on her own accord,” they replied. “Who are we to disrupt the flow of time beyond our Mother’s will?”

“You know very well what will happen if they get the Signet Case!” Solaris boomed. “You have to get it before she goes to the ‘Space-Between-Spaces’.”

“We will only do as our Mother wills,” they stated as they turned to leave.

“Fine, ask your Mother,” Selene sneered, “knowing her she’ll probably say leave it alone.”

“What she says is what will happen,” they said as they began walking away.

“Fine! You leave when the sun is in the North,” Solaris said before he took his seat.

“Remember, you’re now fair game when it comes to becoming somepony’s trophy,” Selene said before he used his magic to undo the mark he made on Contact’s cheek. His brother removed his soon thereafter.

“Fine by us,” they said as they exited the room.

“Brother, do you think they’ll mark us as ‘Male’ on the transfer papers?” Lulu asked as they walked back to their room.

“Most likely, after all, we do have a hermaphrodite body and Colonel Bloodrush is a mare,” Sol said as they rounded a corner.

“Do you think the Djinns will keep their word?” Lulu asked.

“I personally don’t count on it,” he replied as they began down the hall to which their room was connected.

“You! Foal with no trophy mark. Come here!” A unicorn stallion said as he looked out his door.

“Om?” they said as they pointed to theirself.

“Don’t start meditating on me! Get in here!” he said with an angered tone.

“Zna dy ayo zerd om?” they asked as the continued walking past the door the stallion was looking out of.

“I said get in here!” he said as he tried to use magic on them but failed.

“Magic doesn’t work on us, Brood-Stal,” they said as they turned around and looked at him. “Learn your opponent before engaging in any sort of action with them.”

“So you do speak Equestrian!” he said in shock.

“Just leave us alone if you value living,” they said as they walked away.

“Glad we averted that fight,” Lulu said as they neared their room.

“Let’s just go in get our stuff together and take a quick rest,” Sol said as they opened the door.

“Good I was expecting to see you walk in at any second,” Chia said in a calm tone.

“Chia! What the Viridia are you doing here?” they asked.

“I’m here to give you something you asked for in the future,” she said as she held out a cloth pouch. “These are your Blocked Temporal Memories. They’re necessary for the future to come out the way it does where I’m from.”

“Um… Thanks?” they said nervously as they took the pouch.

“Don’t mention it,” she said as she smiled. “It’s because of you two that our world will be at constant war.”

With that final sentence, she disappeared in a vortex of light. After she left, the vortex closed.

“Temporal Memories?” Sol wondered.

“She seemed so cheery,” Lulu thought. “I’ve never seen her like that.”

“Are you even listening?” Sol asked.

“Of course I am. We are in the same body after all,” Lulu replied.

“Do you have any idea what these are?” Sol asked as they looked in the pouch.

“I’ve never seen them,” Lulu replied as they reached in and pulled out a Cobalt orb. “She said they were memories, does that mean we put them to our head?”

“We can see if that’ll work,” Sol said before they did as Lulu suggested.

When the orb touched their head it was absorbed and Lulu had a flashback.

“I hope the other’s don’t mind my staying away from the dance floor,” Lulu thought as she pet Spike and watched the students of Canterlot High have a Pre-Graduation Party.

“Excuse me,” said a male with bright orange skin and blue hair as he walked up to her. “Um… Would you like to… you know… dance?”

“Sunset put you up to this didn’t she?” Lulu asked as she looked up at him.

“N-no, I came by choice,” he said.

“You’re not a very convincing liar, Flash,” she replied.

“Okay, maybe she did ask me to do this, but I’m also doing this because I feel like you’re unsure as to who really trusts you,” he replied.

“I’d rather not,” she said, “I don’t want to wake Spike.”

“Oh, uh, I’ve been awake the whole time,” Spike said as he hopped off her lap.

“Some help you are,” she replied.

“Please, Lunair?” Flash asked one final time.

“Alright, but only to humor Sunset,” she replied.

Flash then gave her a hand to pull herself out of her seat and they walked to the middle of the dance floor. When they found a spot to start dancing a slow song started to play.

“This is my first time trying to dance,” she said.

“It’s simple, follow my lead,” he said.

She tried her best, only fumbling up a few times. After the song was finished, they walked out of the gym and into the moonlit exterior of the school grounds.

“I did awful,” she said as she leaned against the guardrail just outside the gym.

“That was pretty good for a first try, Lunair,” he said as he looked at her.

“I messed up several times,” she insisted.

“I counted three mess-ups and none of them were major,” he said trying to make her feel better.

“You’re just saying that,” she said as she hung her head.

He lifted her head by the chin and made her look at him before he spoke. “No, I mean it,” he said before letting go of her chin. “There was a girl named Twilight Sparkle, not the one that’s inside the gym right now, but one from another world. I danced with her at the fall formal. You should have seen the way she danced. She was on her hands and knees dancing, I had never seen anything like it before.”

“Really?” she asked.

“Yeah, you can ask anyone in the school, even Sunset,” he said as his cheeks turned a bit redder.

“You said she came from another world. What did you mean by that?” she asked.

“She came from a place called ‘Equestria’ or something like that,” he said. “The moment I found out she was a princess I freaked.”

“Maybe I’ll meet her one day,” she said.

“I don’t think so,” he said. “The only way to get to Equestria from here is through the statue out front, but it’s against school rules.”

“Oh, okay,” she replied before she looked up at the moon. “Flash, can I tell you something that I’ve only told Sunset, her friends, Principal Celestia and Vice Principal Luna?”

“Sure, what is it?” he asked.

Sigh “-I’m not entirely human,” she said.

“I already knew that,” he started. “You beat six Djinns in a power fight by yourself. I’d have to say there is no way you’re human.”

“No, that’s not what I mean,” she said as she looked at him. “They were the ones that made me. Or at least my body. I am the daughter of an angel and he who sits at the right hand. I’m no where near human.”

“What do you mean ‘an angel and he who sits at the right hand’?” he asked in confusion.

“I’ll show you,” she said before they departed for the library.

When they made it to the library, they ascended the stairs and went to the ‘religion’ section of the library. Lulu searched the section for a specific book. When she found it, she brought it downstairs where there was better lighting.

The book’s cover was white and read: ‘Nyca Pyyg’. She flipped to the back of the book where there were some pages with no writing on them. She held her right hand over the pages and they began to glow a Light Blue.

When the light died down, there was blue writing on the page that read:

-“The Book of the Era Eclipse

-“1.In the end of the First Era, six beings of great power will create vessels for the daughters of an angel and he who sits at the right hand. When this comes to be, a great struggle to protect the world from darkness will begin.

-“2.During the struggle, eight creatures of immense power will fall. Four creators and four vessels.

-“3.After the first two struggles, the daughters belonging to those eras will find one they love and spend the remaining time they have with them.

-“4.Before the third struggle, the daughter belonging to that era will find someone she loves and be challenged to take her true form.
-“5.When the first two meet the one they will call ‘Lover’, a light from the moon will beam down upon them and my voice will resound around them saying:-”-

“This is my Granddaughter, in whom I am greatly pleased,” a male’s voice resounded around them.

Flash looked at Lunair and saw she was covered in the moon’s light. “So, you are…”

“Yes,” she replied before he could finish.

“Lunair, I… I love you,” he said as he looked at her.

They stared at each other for a few minutes before hugging each other. They then pulled their heads away just enough to see each others’ face before they kissed.

“Flash,” Lulu thought.

“Flash? Flash Sentry? That pegasus guard from the Crystal Empire or the alicorn leader of the Chaos League?” Sol asked as if he were unable to see what she had seen.

“Neither,” she replied. “The human from the first era. Do you not remember?”

“I know who you’re thinking about but what did he do?” Sol asked.

“You don’t remember?” Lulu asked in stressed tone.

“No, honestly I don’t,” he replied.

“We… I kissed him…” she said as her tone saddened.

“How could you kiss him without me knowing? We’re connected mentally and we always have been,” Sol asked in confusion.

“We must not have been connected,” she said as they picked out another memory, this time a Crimson one, and repeated the process. When they put it to their head, Sol had a flashback.

“Angel come back with those keys!” Solair yelled as he chased after Angel, Fluttershy’s pet rabbit, near the edge of Everfree Forest.

“Angel, if you come back with my keys, um, I’ll fix you a special dinner,” Fluttershy called quietly. “Um, anything you want, I’ll fix it.”

Angel stopped for a second, looked back, and stuck his tongue out while holding down one of his lower eyelids with his paw.

“Why you little…” Solair said as he picked up speed getting ever closer to the rabbit.

“Wait!” Fluttershy called before tripping over a rock. “Ouch!” she yelled quietly when she caught herself as she fell.

“Flutters!” he said before jumping into the air, opening his wings, gliding into a u-turn and running to Fluttershy. “Are you okay?” he asked as he helped her up.

“I-” sniffle “-I’ll be fine,” she sobbed as they looked at her bleeding hands.

“Come on, let’s get this tended to,” he said as he picked her up and flew them to his house. When they got there, he set her in a loveseat on his porch. “I’ll be right back with some first-aid supplies,” he said before going into his house.

“Oh, Angel, I know you didn’t want me to get hurt,” she mumbled as she looked at her hands.

“Okay, I’ve have some Rubbing Alcohol, some paper towelettes, and some medical gauze,” Solair said as he came out with the aforementioned supplies.

He put a paper towelette on the table on his porch, held one of her hands over the paper towelette, opened the Rubbing Alcohol, and poured a little of the liquid on it. The solution then began reacting with the dirt and germs causing a stinging sensation in her hands.

“It hurts!” she cried as he jerked her hand away.

“Flutters, it’s rubbing alcohol, it’s going to hurt,” he replied. “The stinging sensation means that it’s working.”

“Well, I just… haven’t used it before,” she responded as she gave him back her hand.

“Flutters, you use it all the time when one of the animals around town needs a wound cleaned,” he started before he poured a little more on her hand. “I’m surprised you haven’t needed to use it on yourself after all this time.”

“Well, that’s because the animals don’t hurt me when I use it on them,” she said

“Well, that hand looks clean, what do you say, Doc.?” he asked as he looked at her.

“It looks clean enough,” she replied after carefully looking at her hand. “I hope it doesn’t stain my hands Red,” she said nervously.

“If it does, it won’t be for more than a few weeks,” he started as he picked up the gauze. “Now, if I wrap your hand incorrectly, you’ll tell me, won’t you?” he asked before she nod and he began wrapping gauze around her hand.

“No, you wrap that hand counterclockwise,” she said gaining his attention.

“You’re the doctor,” he told her before unravelling what he had already wrapped and proceeding to wrap her hand counterclockwise.

“You know the rabbit is faster than the catcher,” she said before making a few soft laughs.

“Haha, you’re right,” he replied before he finished wrapping her hand. “Now, on to the next one,” he said before she gave him her other hand.

“Sol, you never really told me where you come from,” she said trying to get him to tell her.

“I told you and the others, my body comes from the magic of another world,” he replied before he poured some Rubbing Alcohol on her hand. “It was crafted by the ones I have fought to protect that world from.”

“I know where your body comes from,” she started after wincing in pain, “but where do you come from?” she asked trying to give him a clue as to what she meant.

“Look, I’d rather not talk about it,” he replied in a depressed tone.

“Please?” she asked as she used her wrapped hand to turn his face toward hers.

“Oh, alright,” he started as he began to wrap her other hand, “I’ll tell you after wrap this hand, okay?”

“Okay,” she said.

“Looking back now, I should have wrapped your fingers up as well,” he teased as he finished wrapping her other hand.

“I know you wouldn’t have, Sol,” she said after a short giggle.

“How do you know?” he asked truly curious as to her answer.

“Because you like me, don’t you?” she asked before she giggled once more.

“That’s for me to know, and none of your friends to find out… yet,” he stated before kissing the back of her hand.

“Oh, you said you were going to tell me where you come from,” she stated before he stood up.

“So I did,” he started, “Let me go get my Biography,” he finished before going into his house.

“You already have someone working on your Biography?” she asked in a curious tone.

“No, it’s already complete,” he replied as he came out with a book with a Black cover that read: ‘Ornyca Pyyg’.

He opened the book and flipped to the back where there were some pages without writing on them. He held his left hand over the pages and they began to glow a Dark Red.

When the light died down, there was Red writing on the page that read:

-“The Book of the Era Eclipse

-“1.In the end of the First Era, six beings of great power will create vessels for the sons of a demon and she who sits at the left hand. When this comes to be, a great struggle to protect the world from light will begin.

-“2.During the struggle, eight creatures of immense power will fall. Four creators and four vessels.

-“3.After the first two struggles, the sons belonging to those eras will find one they love and spend the remaining time they have with them.

-“4.Before the third struggle, the son belonging to that era will find someone he loves and be challenged to take his true form.

-“5.When the first two meet the one they will call ‘Lover’, a light from the sun will beam down upon them and my voice will resound around them saying:-”-

“This is my Grandson, in whom I am greatly pleased,” a female’s voice resounded around them.

Fluttershy looked at Solair and saw that he was covered in a bright light from the sun.

“So, you’re-”

“Yes,” he responded cutting her off.

“I want to be with you forever,” she said before they hugged each other.

“You will,” he said before they gave each other a kiss.

“Flutters,” Sol thought.

“Let me guess, roughly the same happened between you two as well?” Lulu asked.

“Yes, second era though,” he replied.

“There are still a few memories left in the pouch, but the sun is in the Northwest,” Lulu said as they looked out their bedroom window to see the sun and moon in the ever twisting sky. “We had better prepare ourself.”

“Yes, let’s,” Sol agreed as they closed the pouch.

They picked a saddlebag out of the closet and put the following in it: An oddly shaped Gray glass bottle that had a decorative, rose blossom shaped glass cork atop it and three Gold rings fit tightly around its neck, called the Relic Bottle; a crystal flask containing a Gray liquid, Called the Spirit Dew Flask; a Gold locket that had a Gray crystal with a pattern in it that resembled two crossed horns in a power struggle, called the Contactium Locket; a Gray bangle with the same design on it as the one in the crystal locket, called the Contactium Bangel; and a Gray orb, bound to a neck chain, with an ‘Alpha’ symbol merged with a ‘Delta’ symbol and an ‘Omega’ symbol in it, called the Grey Orb.

“That’s all our relics,” Sol thought.

“Let’s go see Solaris and Selene,” Lulu thought before they departed for the throne room.

*********

“I’ve sent the transfer papers to your new C.O.,” Solaris started. “She expects you there in two minutes.”

“Fine we’ll leave now,” they said as they tossed a ring off their tail. The ring grew to a size that they could pass though and a swirling purple void appeared in it.

They passed through the ring and ended up about three miles from the Chaos League Front. As soon as the ring returned to them, they heard a whistling sound above them. They looked up and saw a bomb Fifty meters above them.

“Hello!” an Earth-pony stallion soldier said after seemingly appearing from nowhere. His coat was Dark Red, his mane and tail were White, and his eyes were Dark Yellow. He wore a Black suit of armour with a Maroon coloured energy pulsing through it. “Uh, I might wanna get us outta here, right?” he said before he grabbed them and they teleported about thirty meters away.

The bomb landed right were they had stood before and exploded causing debris to fly everywhere.

“I’d stay away from the front lines if I was you, kid. Ya might end up lookin’ like dat dirt patch back dere,” he said. “Why ya out here anyway? A foal your age shouldn’t be nowhere near the front lines.”

“We’ll use my voice,” Sol thought.

“Agreed,” Lulu responded.

“I was looking for my C.O.,” they said in Sol’s voice.

“Who’s your C.O.?” he said as he pulled what looked like a baseball bat handle off the back of his armour.

“Colonel Bloodrush,” they replied.

“Ha! As if!” he replied as he pressed a button on the handle and a beam of Maroon energy extended out of it. “She’s my C.O. and the only new memba we got transfer papers for ’s a mare. You’re a… whatever the heck you are. Ya ain’t a mare, that’s for sure.”

“Well, that certainly is a surprise,” Sol thought.

“ Why would they do that?” Lulu asked.

“I haven’t a clue,” Sol responded.

“May I have your name?” they asked.

“That depends, who’s side ya on?” he asked before the beam of energy went back into the handle and he put it back on his armour.

They then saluted him and began to recite the Arcane Pledge:

“Upon the Princes’ fighting word
My strength shall not be deterred
Until the world is born again
I will defend them the best I can
In our Faction’s darkest hour
I will give them all my power
The Arcane Faction and it’s walls
I will protect until I fall”

“Okay, dat’s good ‘nough for me,” he said. “My name’s Temporal Break, code name: Tracin’ Scouta. Let’s get you to my unit to see if we can’t find your real C.O.”

They then teleported several times before his suit ran out of energy. The glowing lines of energy on it flickered a few times before fading away entirely.

“Good news is: We’re only two kilometers from the base,” he started. “Bad news is: I just ran out of powa and we need to wait for my suit to charge back up.”

“Well at least we’re further away from the front lines,’ they said.

“So, how did a little foal like you get all the way out there?” he asked as they continued to the base on hoof.

“I don’t really remember how I got there,” they replied.

“Do you remember anythin’?” he asked.

“No, I guess I’m unsure that any of my memories are true,” they replied.

“Well, only a few more seconds and my energy should be back enough for us to go faster,” he said.

“I want to see if one of my memories is true,” they started. “Will you help me test it?”

“What’s it?” he asked as he looked down at them.

“Well, in my memories, I was able to make a rift in Space-Time using my rings,” they said. “I want to see if it’s true, and if it is, I’d like you to test it.”

“Well, alright, but if I get hurt, you’ll be buying my Epona-Colas for the next tree weeks, understood?” he asked.

“Fine by me,” they said.

They then tossed a ring off their tail and the rift was made. This astonished Scouter as he hadn’t really seen this before.

“I’ve heard of somepony dat could do dis a long time ago, but I wasn’t ever able to meet ‘em,” he said.

“Well, are you going to try it?” they asked.

The energy in his suit began shining again causing him to take notice. “Well, now dat I know if something goes wrong I can get back, why the heck not?” he said before jumping into the void.

After he completely passed through, they closed the rift. After that, they pulled out their flask and took a sip of the liquid inside.

“We’ll take your form and voice now, sister,” Sol thought.

“I know, we have to,” Lulu replied.

After they swallowed the liquid their body began to glow and began changing shape a small bit. Their mane and tuft on their tail turned Cobalt and White, their coat grew darker, and their body became completely female.

“Now it is our turn to get to the base,” Lulu thought.

After closing their flask and putting it back in their saddlebags, they then opened the rift again and passed through. When they arrived they saw Five ponies looking at them.

The only one they recognized was Scouter, the others they had not seen before. The first was a unicorn mare. She had a Dark Red coat, Basic Black and Bright White jagged mane and tail. She wore a metallic mask over her muzzle concealing even her eyes. And finally, her armour was White and Deep Blue and had the number Sixty-Seven engraved on the right side of the chestplate.

The second was a unicorn stallion. He had a Pine Green coat, Clover Green mane and tail, and Light Red eyes. What he wore was a suit of Black armour with mechanical wings that had glowing blue feather-like lights coming from them.

The third unknown figure was a unicorn. It’s entire figure was covered in a Bright White cloak, a Cosmic Black kabuki mask with a Light Blue scar mark over the left eye. It also had a Gray mist coming from the eyes of it’s mask, and the only part of it’s body that was not covered was a piece of it’s curved Light Gray horn.

The final figure was an Earth-pony stallion. his coat was Grass Green and his mane and tail were Blood Red. He wore a pair of glasses and a stetson hat. He also carried a Mach Twelve Rail-Rifle. Basically a rail gun used for sniping.

“Who’s zhe stutfohlen?” the stallion with mechanical wings asked.

“My name is-”

“Lunair?” Scouter asked.

“N-no, it’s Contact, codename: War-Keeper,” they said in Lulu’s voice.

“Ah so you’re the transfer,” the mare with the Sixty-Seven armour said. “To be honest I expected somepony… older and more capable. I’m Colonel Bloodrush, codename: Sixty-Seven. This is Tracing Scouter, Merciful Medic, Grim Reaper, and Sniping Widower. Codenames of course,” she said pointing to each one respectively.

“Thank you for the introductions, Ma’am, but with all do respect, I am much, much older than I look, and I am the most powerful pony in Equestria,” they said.

“Bah, lies,” Grim said in a mare’s voice as she looked down at them. “How can such a small filly be more powerful than a trained fighter, let alone the princes?”

“Use magic on me and I’ll show you I’m the most powerful creature,” they said.

“Ha, this is going to be fun,” she said before trying to lift them with a levitation spell. Her Gray aura appeared around them but could not lift them.

“Are you purposefully screwing up, Grim?” Medic asked.

“Can it, Medic, or I’ll perform surgery on you,” she replied.

“Let me try,” Bloodrush said before she tried the same type of spell. Her Sea Blue aura appeared around them and she yielded the same results as Grim. “Okay, foal, what’s the trick?”

“No trick, Ma’am,” they said. “Since I am of a higher level of magic than you, your magic has no affect on me.”

“Unmöglich,” Medic said. “All Draconic Alicorns have magic effect zhem. Magic hurts zhem more zhan any ozher veapon.”

“I’m not a Draconic Alicorn,” they said. “I’m a Demon.”

“Wait just a second ‘ere,” Scouter said as he held a hoof in front of him and made a few motion silencing everypony else. “Ma’am, permission to speak with War-Keeper in private?”

“Not yet, Scouter,” Bloodrush said as she held a hoof up to silence him. “What do you mean: ‘A Demon’?” she asked them.

“What I mean is just what I said,” they started. “I come from the lowest depths of Tartarus for the sole purpose of helping the Arcane Faction.”

“Uh-huh,… Anypony else believe this?” Grim asked as she looked around at the others gaining no response. “Thought so.”

“Scouter, your request to speak with War-Keeper has been Granted,” Bloodrush said before Scouter grabbed Contact and teleported them a kilometer away. “Maybe he can talk some sense into that filly,” she said as she looked at them from a distance.

“How the heck do you not remember me?” Scouter asked as he looked at them.

“Look, I don’t know who you think I am, but you are mistaken,” they replied.

Suddenly a flash bright light appeared near them leaving a mare zebra with a horn behind.

“Colonel Chia, what are you doing here?” they asked in shock.

“Contact, look in the pouch I gave you, there is one White orb in there, absorb it,” she said before disappearing in another flash of light.

“You are who I thought ya are,” he said. “Dat Djinn dat spoke to ya gave me the proof.”

“Look, since you know me but I don’t know you, yet, keep your knowledge of me to yourself,” they said before pulling the White orb out of the cloth pouch given to them. They then put it to their head and absorbed it prompting a flashback to occur for Lulu.

“I’m nervous, Solaris,” Lulu said as she stood outside the doors to a Marriage Hall in the Arcane Faction’s main Fortress of Canterlot. She wore a Black dress with places for her wings to come out, a veil over her face, and she held a bouquet of Black roses.

“Don’t be, this is a rare time, a time for joy as opposed to sorrow and grief,” he replied. He wore a Black tuxedo with matching tie.

Suddenly, they heard the “Wedding March’ play from a pipe organ inside the hall. “It is time,” Solaris said before taking her arm, opening the door, and slowly walking down the aisle with her. When they reached the end of the aisle, he departed from her and she continued to the altar.

When she arrived at the altar she looked to her right and saw Temporal Break before facing the priest. Temporal wore his armour as it was the one thing keeping him in the boundaries of time.

“Dearly beloved,” the priest started, “we are gathered here this cycle in the sight of the Goddess to witness the binding of these two souls by the bonds of matrimony. Before their vows are said, is there anyone here who disagrees with their decision? If so, speak now or be forever silenced…” There was a moderate pause before he continued. “Well then, do you, Lunair Solstice, take this man, Temporal Break, to be your lawfully wedded husband, to have and hold in health and sickness, in wealth and poverty, in peace and war, ‘till death do you part?” he asked as he looked at Lunair.

“Affirmative,” she said as she nod slightly before glancing at Temporal.

“And do you, Temporal Break, take this woman, Lunair Solstice, to be your lawfully wedded wife, to have and hold in health and sickness, in wealth and poverty, in peace and war, ‘till death do you part?” he asked as he looked at Temporal.

“I do,” he replied gaining some awkward stares from the others in the room. “I mean: Affirmative,” he said correcting himself.

“Please exchange your rings,” he said.

Lunair then slipped a solid Gold wedding band on Temporal’s right ring finger and Temporal slipped solid Gold ring with a Diamond on it onto Lunair’s right ring finger.

“By the power given to me by the Princes of the Arcane Faction, bestowed upon them by the Goddess, I now pronounce you man and wife,” he said. “You may kiss the bride.”

Temporal then lifted the veil that was in front of Lunair’s face and kissed her.

“Temporal… I… I hadn’t known…” Lulu said quietly in confusion as tears came to their eyes.

“Now do ya remember me?” he asked.

“Yes, but I must tell you something,” they said.

“What’s it?” he asked.

“Lunair isn’t the only one in this body,” they said in Sol’s voice.

“What the Viridia?!!” he exclaimed in shock.

“I’m Lunair’s brother,” they said. “My name is Solair. I’m the one of us two that comes from this dimension.”

“You live the same body?” he asked.

“Not by choice,” they said in their combined voice. “We were given a hermaphrodite body when we entered this dimension less than two cycles ago.”

“Wait, Lunair, do ya remember what happened to ya before ya died in the last era?” he asked with a confused look about his face.

“No, she didn’t die in any era,” they said. “If she had, she wouldn’t be able to speak to you now.”

“Ya died in my arms, I’m pretty sure I’d’a known if ya died,” he said.

“Then it wasn’t her,” they said.

He then tapped a button on his armour which began to play a recording of Lunair saying: “I loved every minute of knowin’ ya. Don’t ever forget me. Tell my brotha Sol… I had fun in his world.”

“I’ll never forget dat day because dat day was the day I found out she was expectin’,” he said.

“Impossible,” they said. “The only stallions we’ve know are the Princes of the Arcane Faction. That was eons ago, and we never conceived a child.”

“Most likely ‘cause ya were a… whateva the heck ya said ya were,” he said.

“Still, we have no memory of her bearing a child,” they said.

“Dat doesn’t matter, the thing dat matta’s is she’s back and when you’re old ‘nough, and you two get separated from each otha, we can get married again,” he ranted.

“No you two cannot,” they said. “She has somepony she loves in the dimension she comes from. And Solair also has somepony he loves in the same dimension.”

“I ain’t losin’ you again, Lunair,” he said before attempting to knock them unconscious only to have them stop every attempt he made causing him to run out of energy in his suit.

“You can’t stop us, Temporal,” they said.

“Fine, ya win, but I ain’t givin’ up ‘till I’ve got Lunair back,” he said.

They then used their rings to teleport them back to the base camp.

“So what did you two talk about?” Widower asked with a smirk on his face.

“Don’t play foal with me, Widowa,” Scouter said as he pulled a microphone off his armour, “I know you shot a wia at my arma.”

“Well, la-ti-da, somepony has an attitude,” he said.

“It’s bad ‘nough ya got cameras hidden in Grim’s room dat watch ‘er when she’s undressed,” he said instigating a fight between the two.

“What!” she said as the mist around her eyes flared.

“Did you have to say that?” he asked as he started running away.

“Get back here you Brood-Stal!” she exclaimed before a White mist appeared around her and she started moving at a speed twice as fast as Widower.

“You two cool it,” Bloodrush called. “Damn it, this team grows more and more unorganized with each passing month.”

“I can fix that, Ma’am,” Contact said in their female voice.

“How? You’re not but a foal,” she asked.

“Watch,” they said as they tossed both of the rings off their tail and made Grim and Widower walk through them.

“Ha! You’re mine now, Brood-Stal!” Grim said as she charged at Widower.

Before she could lay a hoof on him, Contact rushed between them and cause them to lose focus. “Look at you,” they said. “Arguing like foals over who is father’s favorite. What would the Princes say?”

They looked at each other and pondered for a second before Widower spoke. “We should not argue over something trivial,” he said.

“Agreed, let’s work together to fight our common enemies,” Grim said as she lost her anger and the mist around her eyes returned to a more natural state.

“Good, now how about we all train and try to work together as a team?” they asked.

“I think that would be a great idea,” Bloodrush said before looking over to Medic. “Medic, contact Canterlot Fortress and request permission for a Two week training break.”

“No need, they gave me authority to give any training necessary for any length of time,” Contact said.

“Um, should I still contact Canterlot Fortress?” Medic asked in confusion.

“Uh… Negative,” Bloodrush said after looking back and forth between Medic and Contact during a short pause. “Uh, War-Keeper let’s get training underway.”
