Dwayne woke up early in the morning and headed out,

"Surprise!" everybody in Sugarcube Corner said, Dwayne saw Princess Celestia, Princess Luna, Princess Cadence, Shining Armor, Flurry Heart, Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Applejack, Spike, Starlight Glimmer, Sunset Shimmer, Sunburst, Trixie, Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, Sandbar, Gallus, Ocellus, Yona, Smolder, Silverstream, Big Macintosh, Granny Smith, Cheerilee, Zecora, Mayor Mare, Doctor Whooves, Roseluck, Derpy, Lyra Heartstrings, Sweetie Drops, Bulk Biceps, Sugar Belle, Carrot Cake, Cup Cake, Pound Cake, Pumpkin Cake, Nurse Redheart, Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon, Snips, Snails, Pipsqueak, Truffle, Filthy Rich, and many more people were there, Dwayne did not react, he just watched, disappointing everyone,

"You don't seem happy, Dwayne." Pinkie Pie said,

"I wasn't paying attention, I was thinking about my nephew." Dwayne replied,

"Oh, so you didn't notice the surprise?" Twilight Sparkle asked,

"I have other things to worry about." Dwayne replied,

"Dwayne, please, just this once, let those worries go and have fun." Princess Celestia said,

"I'll try to." Dwayne replied, and he walks them.

Dwayne goes to the sweets and tries them,

"Are you enjoying them?" Carrot Cake asked,

"It's alright." Dwayne replied,

"Don't forget to try the drinks too, Dwayne." Cup Cake said, and he tried the fruit punches, it was strange to him due to him being used to drinking only water,

"I usually don't drink things like this, I usually only drink water." Dwayne said, Rainbow Dash flew to him,

"Here, try a hayburger." Rainbow Dash said,

"I don't eat hay." Dwayne replied,

"Oh." Rainbow Dash said while frowning,

"I've got some apple treats over here, Dwayne." Applejack said, and he saw apple pies, apple turnovers, and many more, he tried them, it was strange to him,

"Is somethin' wrong, Dwayne?" Apple Bloom asked,

"This is the very first time in my life I've ever eaten a fruit." Dwayne replied, shocking everyone,

"You never had fruit before?!" Silverstream asked,

"Nope, my diet as a kid was mostly bugs, now, it's just meat, vegetables, and water, that's all the human body needs to survive." Dwayne replied,

"But that's no fun." Pinkie Pie said,

"There's a variety, Pinkie Pie." Dwayne replied,

"Oh, okay, now it's more fun." Pinkie Pie said, Dwayne tried one of each,

"What'd ya think, Dwayne?" Apple Bloom asked,

"It's alright." Dwayne replied,

"You don't like it?" Granny Smith asked,

"I do, it's just... I'm not used to it." Dwayne replied,

"Oh, maybe you'll like it after a few more." Granny Smith said,

"You have anything, Big Macintosh?" Dwayne asked,

"Eenope." Big Macintosh replied,

"Well, thanks, I'll go see the others now." and he walks to go see the others.

Dwayne went to go see Derpy to see how she has been,

"Hey, Dwayne, you look the same as before." Derpy said,

"I don't get tired often." Dwayne replied,

"I've got some muffins with me, want one?" Derpy asked,

"Sorry, but I'm not hungry." Dwayne replied,

"Oh, I also have two friends of mine I'd like you to meet, Doctor Whooves and Roseluck." Derpy said,

"Hello, Dwayne, your power is a unique one, it's a shame we didn't get the time to study it." Roseluck said,

"There really isn't much more to it." Dwayne replied,

"Wait a minute." Dr. Shadow said from inside Dwayne's room, he walks out and goes to Doctor Whooves,

"You look familiar." Dr. Shadow said,

"I don't believe we have met." Doctor Whooves replied,

"Really? You look just like someone from my home civilization, you sound just like him, too." Dr. Shadow said, surprising everyone,

"Well, it's probably just coincidence, I do have many ancestors." Doctor Whooves replied,

"Perhaps, if only the other four were here to see you." Dr. Shadow said, and he walked away.

Dwayne walked around a bit more and went to Cheerilee and her class,

"Did you enjoy your time here, Dwayne?" Cheerilee asked,

"It was alright, a lot better than my home." Dwayne replied,

"We're sorry about the bullies you had, school must've been hard for you." Sweetie Belle said,

"It was, it still holds some of my most painful memories." Dwayne replied,

"How bad was school when compared to the rest of yer life?" Apple Bloom asked,

"It's still one of the worst times of my life." Dwayne replied,

"I know how you feel, Dwayne, we were bullied a lot, too." Scootaloo said,

"You three are lucky you didn't have to deal with my bullies." Dwayne replied,

"Ooh, I'm so scared." Diamond Tiara said sarcastically,

"Diamond Tiara." Filthy Rich said sternly,

"Diamond Tiara, you and Silver Spoon are lucky you didn't go to my schools." Dwayne said,

"Why?" Silver Spoon asked,

"Because you two would've been bullied and hated." Dwayne replied,

"Like some bullying is going to break me." Silver Spoon said,

"No, that is not what I meant at all, some of the bullies I had in school actually killed people." Dwayne replied, horrifying everyone except Sunset Shimmer,

"He's telling the truth, everybody, I saw his memories, his bullies really did take the lives of others." Sunset Shimmer said, Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon were scared,

"Oh my, I know Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon have bullied Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle several times, but I don't think they would actually take the lives of others." Cheerilee said,

"There's no way I could live with myself if I did that, I would regret it all of my life." Diamond Tiara said,

"Me too." Silver Spoon said,

"That's another difference, when my bullies killed people, they didn't regret it, they were happy." Dwayne replied, shocking everyone, Pinkie Pie gasped in horror,

"That ain't right! Taking a life is nothin' to be happy about!" Applejack said,

"I know, right, they're lucky they didn't meet me, I would've fought them!" Rainbow Dash said,

"Then they would all gang up on you and kill you as well, Rainbow Dash." Dwayne replied,

"Then they'll deal with all of us, you hurt one of us, you hurt all of us." Applejack said,

"You guys sound just like the Brotherhood." Dwayne replied, the others smiled,

"Is the Brotherhood mean?" Fluttershy asked,

"No, most of them are friendly." Dwayne replied,

"Well, let's continue partying, we're short on time." Pinkie Pie said, everyone agreed,

"Wait, Dwayne, one more question." Diamond Tiara said, Dwayne looked at her,

"Would me and Silver Spoon have been the most hated kids in your school?" Diamond Tiara asked,

"No, probably second most hated." Dwayne replied,

"Then who would be the first most hated?" Silver Spoon asked,

"Pinkie Pie." Dwayne replied,

"What?! Why me for?" Pinkie Pie asked,

"Because of your loud and happy-go-lucky personality, that's annoying to most people in my world, and your desire to sing and have parties would make them mad, they will also hate your voice, and pink is a very unpopular color in my world." Dwayne replied, Pinkie Pie was scared to ask,

"How will they bully me?" Pinkie Pie asked,

"At best, they would pick on you, exclude you from everything, and break into your home in the middle of the night to beat you up, at worst, they'll kill you." Dwayne replied, Pinkie Pie gasped,

"I'm sorry, Pinkie Pie, but that is the truth." Dwayne said, Pinkie Pie was on the verge of tears, Pound Cake and Pumpkin Cake comforted her,

"Well, let's continue, feel free to meet the others, Dwayne." Princess Celestia said and the party continues.

Dwayne decides to go see Sandbar, Gallus, Ocellus, Yona, Smolder, and Silverstream next,

"Hi, Dwayne, long time, no see." Sandbar said,

"It hasn't been that long." Dwayne replied,

"You caused quite a stir in my homeland when you broke Garble's arm." Smolder said,

"Am I in trouble for that?" Dwayne asked,

"No, he's always been a troublemaker." Smolder replied,

"Oh." Dwayne said, he looks and saw Ocellus hiding behind Sandbar,

"It's alright, Ocellus, I won't hurt you." Dwayne said, and Ocellus walked out,

"Uh, uh... hi?" Ocellus asked,

"What are your abilities?" Dwayne asked, and Ocellus changed into a pony,

"I see, the Psychic member with the identity crisis could shapeshift, too." Dwayne said,

"I can transform, too, Dwayne." Silverstream replied, and she changed to a seapony,

"Your form is actually better looking than most things I've seen." Dwayne said,

"Thank you." Silverstream replied happily,

"What about the rest of you?" Dwayne asked,

"I can fly." Gallus replied with confidence,

"I've taken down flying enemies before, plus, I can teleport onto you." Dwayne replied,

"I can breathe fire." Smolder said,

"I can make myself fireproof." Dwayne replied,

"How do you do that?" Sandbar asked,

"I control ice and water, and I can form nomex, it's a type of fireproof clothing." Dwayne replied, Rarity chuckled,

"I must see this nomex." Rarity said,

"You already did." Dwayne replied,

"Is it that black shield you make around flames?" Twilight Sparkle asked,

"Yeah, that's nomex." Dwayne replied,

"What about that other shield you make?" Fluttershy asked,

"Kevlar, mine is completely bulletproof, stronger than average Kevlar, which is bullet resistant." Dwayne replied, surprising everyone, some of them did not know what a bullet was,

"What about the bullets you shoot out of your body, Dwayne?" Sunset Shimmer asked,

"They're stronger than regular bullets, they can destroy regular Kevlar to shreds easily." Dwayne replied,

"Speaking of clothing, I've made a new outfit for you, Dwayne." Rarity said, and she uses her telekinesis to bring it out,

"Well, what can you do, Yona?" Dwayne asked,

"Yona do lots of things, Yona learned in Yakyakistan, things done in Yakyakistan is best." Yona replied, Dwayne's memories trigger and he began to have bad memories,

"Did Yona trigger bad memory?" Yona asked,

"Yeah, in my world, sections went to war against one another just because they thought their race was superior to the other, and wanted to prove it by killing everyone of one race." Dwayne replied, shocking everyone, Silverstream changed back,

"You mean? As in, they would take lives of others for being different from them?!" Silverstream asked with shock,

"Yeah, pretty much." Dwayne replied, shocking everyone,

"That is why we have the School of Friendship, Dwayne, it is to teach to accept everyone, even if they are different." Sandbar said,

"There are some things you cannot learn in school." Dwayne replied,

"You sound like you didn't learn much." Snips said,

"I didn't." Dwayne replied,

"Well, what did you learn?" Snails asked,

"Useless information." Dwayne replied,

"Even history was useless to you?" Pipsqueak asked,

"No, it's just that a lot of the things we were taught, we're not using in the real world." Dwayne replied,

"You don't use history in the real world." Truffle said,

"I meant as in reading and math, the history they taught me and the others was actually propaganda." Dwayne replied, the natives gasped,

"They taught you propaganda?!" Silverstream asked,

"Yes, and ninety percent of the things we're taught in school, we won't be using once when we get out of school." Dwayne said,

"Your schools don't teach you anything about how the world works?" Sunburst asked,

"My schools didn't." Dwayne replied,

"You guys didn't feel like learning?" Cheerilee asked,

"No one did, a lot of the things we learned, we knew we wouldn't be using, therefore, we thought we shouldn't have to learn it." Dwayne replied,

"No, it's good to at least know about it." Twilight Sparkle said,

"As I said earlier, a lot of things they taught us actually ended up being wrong." Dwayne replied,

"So... how did you learn?" Rainbow Dash asked,

"By overhearing my parents help my sister on her homework." Dwayne replied, everyone was shocked and sad at hearing how Dwayne had to learn. Rarity comes back with the outfit,

"Here it is, Dwayne." Rarity said, she holds it up with her telekinesis, it looked almost like his current outfit, but was several colors, the left half of the long-sleeve shirt and pants were black, while the right half was white, there was a red armband on the left bicep, and a blue armband on the right bicep, it had dress shoes instead of boots, the left shoe was black, and the right shoe was white, the left side of the military belt was red, the right side was blue, and the buckle was gray, and the collar of the shirt was purple, with a purple amethyst in the center of it. Dwayne takes his black long-sleeve shirt, black short-sleeve shirt, black pants, and black boots off, he puts on the outfit in front of everyone, he was not afraid to be only in his undergarments in front of everyone,

"Well, what do you think?" Rarity asked,

"It's alright, I like my black and red outfit better, though." Dwayne replied,

"To be honest with ya, Dwayne, all of that black clothing from yer world is gettin' really tirin'." Applejack said,

"I agree with Applejack, try a new color for once." Twilight Sparkle said,

"You saw Adrian with brown and green." Dwayne replied,

"Well, yes, but brown is a bit similar to black, and her green was a dark green, I want your world to try light colors for a change, dark must be balanced with light." Rarity said,

"My nephew's blue shirt is kind of light." Dwayne replied,

"But blue is also mainly a dark color." Starlight Glimmer said,

"Okay, but what's with the footwear?" Dwayne asked,

"They're shoes, seeing the people in your world wearing boots all of the time is a bit tiring to see as well." Rarity replied,

"My nephew wears shoes." Dwayne said,

"But it's only one person, everyone else we saw were wearing boots." Rarity replied,

"Well, the boots we wear last longer than shoes, they're better at protecting our feet, too." Dwayne said while smiling nervously,

"You guys don't wear shoes?" Derpy asked,

"Not very often." Dwayne replied,

"Well, try them sometime, I usually find them more comfortable than wearing boots." Twilight Sparkle said, and Dwayne took the outfit off, and put his military uniform back on. Dwayne went to Bulk Biceps and looked at him,

"You're a big one, aren't you?" Dwayne asked,

"YEAH!!" Bulk Biceps replied, Dwayne did not appreciate his yelling, Fluttershy walked to him,

"This is Bulk Biceps, Dwayne, he's a friend of mine." Fluttershy said,

"Well, that's a bit unusual, shy people usually have no friends in my world." Dwayne replied, the party items begin to fly around and the furniture goes onto the ceiling, causing everyone except for Dwayne to gasp,

"She has not introduced you to me, yet." a male voice said, everybody realized it was Discord, and he appeared in Sugarcube Corner,

"Hello, Dwayne, my name is Discord, I am the spirit of chaos and disharmony." Discord said,

"You have a psychic disorder, too?" Dwayne asked,

"Oh no, I have something much more powerful." Discord replied, and he made twelve people appear, they were humans like Dwayne, they wore metallic armor that covered them from head to toe, their helmets were round and the eye areas were black, they all wore a black one-piece outfit under their armor, they all looked exactly the same, the only thing that was different about them were the colors of their armor. Dwayne became uncomfortable, he knew exactly who they were,

"Disorder Hunter One." the red one said,

"Disorder Hunter Two." the blue one said,

"Disorder Hunter Three." the yellow one said,

"Disorder Hunter Four." the green one said,

"Disorder Hunter Five." the orange one said,

"Disorder Hunter Six." the purple one said,

"Disorder Hunter Seven." the brown one said,

"Disorder Hunter Eight." the gray one said,

"Disorder Hunter Nine." the black one said,

"Disorder Hunter Ten." the white one said,

"Disorder Hunter Eleven." the pink one said,

"Disorder Hunter Twelve." the beige said,

Dwayne got ready to fight them, the natives were shocked to hear their voices, they can tell they were all males, Dwayne knew exactly who they were, the red one was Walter, the blue one was Harold, the yellow one was Atem, the green one was Yi Xing, the orange one was Jim, the purple one was Ryuji, the brown one was Abd al Matin Khan, the gray one was Thaddeus, the black one was Ethan, the white one was Jack, the pink one was Cody, and the beige one was Santiago. The Disorder Hunters run around Dwayne in a counterclockwise circle, they all grab what appeared to be a small cylinder on their right hips, they were the same colors at their armors. The Disorder Hunters push a button on the cylinder to activate what appeared to be a thin laser beam, the cylinder's sides moved up and outwards, forming hand guards, causing some of the natives to gasp. The Disorder Hunters point the laser sword at Dwayne, the tip shoots out a laser beam, Dwayne ducked to dodge them, he knew what they were, it was a special laser beam designed by Otto, meant to hit the brain, and only affect the mutated part, and destroy it, anyone with a psychic disorder hit by it would die immediately, while the bladed part was razor sharp, and would burn anything it touched. The Disorder Hunters shoot another laser beam and Dwayne ducks to dodge them, the Disorder Hunters hit each other, but were not affected, Dwayne screams and ice and water appeared, Dwayne jumped out of the circle, but the Disorder Hunters jump to where he went and surrounded him again, causing some people to gasp.

Dwayne remembered how he beat them in the past, but he had Jin and Alex to help him, so he did not know if it will work this time, he ran in a counterclockwise direction as fast as he could, he blended in with the Disorder Hunters, they become confused when they see him, he keeps running, they focus and Dwayne jumps away, the Disorder Hunters were confused and they all jumped, but all twelve of them hit each other in midair and explode. Dwayne changed back to normal and turned around, everyone looked at him with disapproval,

"Is that how you deal with all of your enemies, Dwayne?" Princess Celestia asked,

"No, I fought most of them directly." Dwayne replied, Discord chuckled,

"Now, that was interesting, but I'll stop since you don't have much time here." Discord said,

"Can you open a portal to my world?" Dwayne asked, and Discord tries,

"Sorry, but no, it's just out of my reach." Discord replied,

"My world must be far away then." Dwayne said,

"It must be, I mean, not even Discord can reach it, and he can warp reality." Pinkie Pie replied,

"Well, I guess we'll have to wait for Dr. Shadow's colleagues to try." Dwayne said, and they continue partying.

Dwayne went to Zecora next to see how she has been,

"I didn't think you'd show up, Zecora." Dwayne said,

"While this is how I would not prefer to spend my time, I have come to say goodbye." Zecora replied,

"Well, thanks, even though we didn't know each other very well." Dwayne said, Zecora smiled, and Dwayne went to someone else. Dwayne went to go see Nurse Redheart,

"I never did meet you." Dwayne said,

"I'm Nurse Redheart, I love attending Pinkie Pie's parties, she sometimes comes to the hospital to cheer up the sick foals." Nurse Redheart replied,

"Lucky you guys, in my world, the doctor and nurse that treated me were informants to the Hunters." Dwayne said, Nurse Redheart was shocked,

"They had their members posing as regular people?" Nurse Redheart asked,

"The Psychics did it, too." Dwayne replied, Nurse Redheart was shocked, just the thought hurt her head, and she fainted, the others held her up, Dwayne just decided to walk away.

Dwayne went to Lyra Heartstrings and Sweetie Drops, the two looked at him and smiled,

"Hi, Dwayne." the two said together,

"Who are you two?" Dwayne asked,

"I'm Lyra Heartstrings, and this is Sweetie Drops, you can also call her Bon Bon." Lyra Heartstrings replied,

"Hello, Dwayne, I've seen a lot in my day, but nothing like you." Sweetie Drops said,

"Psychic disorders are not that common in my world." Dwayne replied,

"Did you say there's psychic disorders for music, too?" Lyra Heartstrings asked,

"Yeah, it's rare, though." Dwayne replied,

"That's too bad, we could've made some good music with it." a female voice said, Dwayne looked and saw it was Octavia, DJ Pon-3 was with her as well,

"Meet some friends of mine, Dwayne, this is Octavia, and that's DJ Pon-3, she's a pony of few words." Lyra Heartstrings said,

"It's usually the quiet ones you have to watch out for." Dwayne replied,

"Now, now, Dwayne, DJ Pon-3's actually really nice, she lets her music do the talking for her." Octavia said, DJ Pon-3 nodded, and the two walked away, they began to play music together, Octavia played a cello, while DJ Pon-3 was a DJ, Dwayne did not mind, even though rock and metal were his favorite genres. Dwayne has a flashback when he, Flint, Jin, and Nigel got new neighbors, they were loud and very rude, they were a bunch of frat boys. Dwayne and Jin got tired of their loudness, and they started being loud themselves, Dwayne played Iron Maiden music, while Jin played Judas Priest music, there was one time they enraged the frat boys by playing songs at maximum volume on boomboxes provided by Wolfgang, the two played a song at the same time, Dwayne played Aces High by Iron Maiden, and Jin played Painkiller by Judas Priest, they woke up angry, even though they have been doing the same thing every night. Dwayne's memories stop and he had a smile on his face, everyone saw it, some covered their ears' due to how loud the songs in his memory were,

"Hold on, Dwayne, since you're leaving today, you don't need that spell on you anymore." Princess Celestia said, and she takes it off of him. Dwayne went to Mayor Mare next since he did not notice her,

"You're a new one, too." Dwayne said,

"Oh, I'm sorry, Dwayne, I forgot about her, this is Mayor Mare, she's the mayor of Ponyville." Twilight Sparkle said,

"Sorry I didn't come to see you earlier, I've been busy with mayor work." Mayor Mare said,

"I'm not surprised, running any place is hard." Dwayne replied, he knew since he saw the Brotherhood run Subris, it was a lot of work,

"Well, there isn't much to me, except I'm old, and I run Ponyville, I also give speeches, that's pretty much all I do." Mayor Mare said, Dwayne was unimpressed, it did not sound like much,

"Well, I'll be going now." Dwayne said,

"Okay, pleasure to meet you just this once." Mayor Mare replied, and Dwayne walked around.

Dwayne looks at the people and was not having fun, he preferred to be alone and live in peace because most of the people he has met in his life were unfriendly and selfish,

"Dwayne." Cup Cake said, Dwayne turned around and saw her with Sugar Belle,

"You didn't meet Sugar Belle yet, she's my assistant." Cup Cake said,

"Hi, Dwayne, I've been wanting to meet you for a while, I'm Big Macintosh's girlfriend." Sugar Belle said,

"I'll admit, I do find you a bit pretty." Dwayne replied nervously,

"Why, thank you." Sugar Belle said happily with a smile on her face, Dwayne was ready, but Sugar Belle noticed something off,

"Dwayne, what's wrong?" Sugar Belle asked, Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle walked to him and realized what was wrong,

"Oh, Ah see what's goin' on here, he said in his world, a boy tellin' a girl she's pretty makes her mad." Apple Bloom said,

"What?" Sugar Belle asked with shock,

"You didn't get the conversation I had with them yesterday?" Dwayne asked,

"No, I've been busy filling orders, I didn't have time to listen." Sugar Belle replied,

"Dwayne, remember, no girl will get mad at you in this world for telling her she's pretty." Scootaloo said,

"Really? Because in my world, that's the fastest way to get a girl to hate you." Dwayne replied,

"Well, they shouldn't be mad, it's a compliment." Sweetie Belle said, Dwayne closed his eyes and was a bit sad, Sugar Belle touched his right shoulder with her front left hoof,

"Dwayne, I came here to check on you as well, I was worried about you, I heard you say in your dream last night that there has been times in your life when dying seemed more pleasant than living." Sugar Belle said,

"It's true, my life has been one hardship after another." Dwayne replied,

"Big Macintosh told me about your life this morning, you didn't deserve any of it, your family, your teachers, your classmates, your fellow soldiers in the army, you deserve better, you've been through worse things than all of us combined." Sugar Belle said, Dwayne still looked down, everyone was sad as well,

"When was the last time you considered taking your own life, Dwayne?" Gallus asked,

"During my fight with the Psychics and the Hunters, I was staying at a wooden cabin in Koroca for days I couldn't get home, eventually, I had to go into hiding there, I didn't just have to battle my memories at that time, I also had depression and paranoia, at that time, there has been two breaks into my house, both times was to kill my nephew, a third break-in happened when I was away, and my nephew got kidnapped, the police was after me at that time as well, I became distraught at that time, too, the Psychics sent someone to kill me, I fought back and killed him in self-defense, the person changed back and I realized I killed a child without knowing it, that was how my depression started. I lived there for sometime, my fear and distress levels were sky high at that time, so I began to hallucinate and see my memories become real to me, every time I tried to use my powers, I would hurt myself." Dwayne explained, shocking everyone,

"What kind of pain did you experience?" Silverstream asked,

"My body would explode in several places, usually my back." Dwayne replied, the natives gasped, Dr. Shadow walked out,

"I remember that, Dwayne was so depressed and paranoid, I had to keep an eye on him, I also gave him that medicine to suppress his powers so the Hunters wouldn't find him." Dr. Shadow said,

"Did you combat your pain, Dwayne?" Spike asked,

"Yes, I began drinking alcohol, smoking tobacco, and taking ibuprofen and morphine, not because I was depressed, but to lessen the pain from using my powers, it didn't help with my nightmares though." Dwayne replied,

"What snapped you out of your depression?" Smolder asked,

"Jin came to visit me, the Brotherhood helped me go into hiding, he said they found my nephew, and I went to go get him, he also said me killing that child was orchestrated by the leader of the Psychics, he watched me through the eyes' of the other members I have fought, and saw how much I was protective of kids, so he sent that child after me for me to kill." Dwayne replied, everyone was sad and horrified at the same time,

"I can't believe it, Fergus would sacrifice children to further his own goals? Not even my enemies did something like that." Twilight Sparkle said tearfully,

"Agreed, that is beyond unforgivable." Princess Celestia replied,

"I remember when I was a bully, even I wouldn't do something like that." Sunset Shimmer said,

"Me neither, even when I was my old self, I thought that would be going too far." Starlight Glimmer replied,

"Even Queen Chrysalis thought that, she would never sacrifice children like that." Ocellus said,

"Queen Chrysalis?" Dwayne asked,

"Our greatest enemy as of now, she's the only one still at large." Sunburst replied,

"Is she like Fergus?" Dwayne asked,

"No, she's more like Adrian." Rainbow Dash replied,

"That's not very smart of her, Adrian tended to boast and say her plans out loud, and gloat, Fergus didn't say anything about his goals, he just did them." Dr. Shadow said,

"Yeah, a lot of our enemies tend to gloat, too." Rainbow Dash replied,

"The Great and Powerful Trixie used to gloat a lot, too, but she has learned her lesson." Trixie said, everyone except Dwayne and Dr. Shadow smiled,

"There's still one thing I don't understand." Twilight Sparkle said,

"What is it?" Dwayne asked,

"You said that you grew up poor and unhappy, hated by your family and classmates, and had no friends, but Fergus grew up rich and happy, loved by his family and classmates, and had many friends, then why did you grow up into a good and caring person who had morals, while Fergus grew up into a rotten and selfish person who would sacrifice and take the lives of children and animals to achieve his own goals?" Twilight Sparkle asked,

"That is strange, Twilight, usually, the unhappy one is the bad one, but in this case, the one who had many friends became the bad person, Equestria has never heard of such a thing happening." Princess Celestia replied,

"Indeed, it is beyond even our understanding." Princess Luna said, everybody murmured,

"Hold on a minute, is there a place for bad souls to go in your world, Dwayne?" Pipsqueak asked,

"Yeah, it's called Hell." Dwayne replied, everybody except Dr. Shadow gasped,

"Dwayne, language!" Twilight Sparkle said,

"But that's what it's called in my world." Dwayne replied,

"We call it Tartarus in this world." Princess Luna said,

"That's what the Greeks call it in my world." Dwayne replied,

"Tartarus is filled with bad things and people in this world." Pinkie Pie said,

"In my world, we call those people the Damned." Dwayne replied, everybody was shocked,

"Dwayne! That's also a bad word, we refer to them as the Condemned in this world." Princess Celestia said, Dwayne can see everybody was uncomfortable with the conversation,

"Well, I'll continue walking around." Dwayne said, and he does.

Dwayne walks around Sugarcube Corner and decided to walk around a bit, and Rainbow Dash ran to him,

"Dwayne, wait, you haven't said hi to the last two people, this is Spitfire, and this is Soarin, fellow Wonderbolts." Rainbow Dash said,

"I heard, right, you're military?" Spitfire asked,

"Ex-military." Dwayne replied,

"What kind of air shows did you do?" Soarin asked,

"I was in the army, we're ground based, not air based, and we didn't do shows, we had to go into small battles and fight." Dwayne replied,

"That's too bad, being in the air is fun." a male voice said, they looked and saw Sky Stinger, Vapor Trail was there as well,

"This is Sky Stinger, another Wonderbolt, and this is Vapor Trail, she's a Wonderbolt, too." Rainbow Dash said,

"Hello, Dwayne, it's nice to finally meet you." Vapor Trail said,

"You're actually kind of cute." Dwayne said,

"Oh, uh... thank you." Vapor Trail replied while smiling and blushing,

"She's kind of shy, Dwayne, I'll do the talking for her." Sky Stinger said,

"Okay, sorry to make you uncomfortable." Dwayne replied,

"It's okay." Vapor Trail said,

"Well, I'll go see the others." Dwayne said,

"Alright, bye, Dwayne." Spitfire said,

"Bye." Dwayne replied, and he walked around. Dwayne walks around the area and sees there was no more people to meet, Pinkie Pie ran to Dwayne,

"Are you having fun, Dwayne?" Pinkie Pie asked,

"It's alright." Dwayne replied,

"Sorry, but I tried to call Maud and Cheese Sandwich here, but Maud has a date today, and Cheese Sandwich is busy elsewhere." Pinkie Pie said,

"Anyone else couldn't make it?" Dwayne asked, Shining Armor and Princess Cadence walked to him, Flurry Heart was on Shining Armor's head,

"We tried to get Flash Sentry to come, but he's on duty." Princess Cadence said,

"None of our guards could make it, neither could my parents, so we came on our own." Shining Armor said, Flurry Heart cooed while she looked at Dwayne, she flew onto his head, Dwayne placed his left index finger in front of her, Flurry Heart grabbed it and chuckled while Dwayne rubbed her head with it, Flurry Heart flew back to Shining Armor shortly afterwards.

Dr. Shadow was contacted telepathically and walked to Dwayne,

"Dwayne, Dr. Devil just contacted, he and the others are going to try to open the portal now, we have to go back to where you were at when you got here." Dr. Shadow said, and they all go to Twilight Sparkle's castle.

Everybody waits and they see a light blue and white portal open, but it was fading, Dr. Shadow then held his right hand out and shot a black blast out of his right hand, it goes onto the portal and it was getting bigger,

"Our magic's not strong enough, the portal might not open." Dr. Shadow said, and Princess Celestia, Princess Luna, Princess Cadence, Shining Armor, Flurry Heart, Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, Starlight Glimmer, Sunset Shimmer, Sunburst, Sweetie Belle, Sugar Belle, Lyra Heartstrings, Trixie, and Ocellus use their magic to try to open the portal, but it was still not enough. Doctor Whooves ran out and came back with a device, he activates it and it shoots a white blast at the portal and it opened. Everybody cheered while a white sphere came through, Dwayne looks and sees a folded paper in there,

"Wait, it's the letter I was going to read before I came here." Dwayne said,

"Let's see what it says." Dr. Shadow replied, and he uses his telekinesis to open it, a black stream came out of his forehead, the letter unfolded, and Dr. Shadow used his magic to enlarge it,

Dwayne,

This is Ryan, your childhood friend, you may already know that I have been missing since May 5th, go to Room 106 Styx Apartments, you'll find the answers to my disappearance there.

Dwayne was in complete shock,

"Room 106?!" Dwayne asked with horror,

"You've been there?" Dr. Shadow asked with shock,

"My powers awakened in Room 109." Dwayne replied,

"So that's what happened, that room and Room 106 are haunted, in Room 109, your painful memories manifest, people have committed suicide in that room because of that." Dr. Shadow said, the natives gasp,

"But my bullies appeared in that room and scratched me, you're saying they were real?" Dwayne asked,

"No, them appearing wasn't real, but the wounds they inflicted on you were." Dr. Shadow, the natives were shocked and horrified at the reveal. Dwayne grunted and fell to his knees, Sunset Shimmer ran to him and touched his right thigh with her front left hoof, Princess Celestia casts a spell to make a screen appear. Everybody sees Dwayne in Styx Apartments, the red and rusty setting made them very uncomfortable. Dwayne tries to enter Room 106, but the door was chained up on the inside when he tried to open it, the memory changes and Dwayne was walking by Room 106, everybody hears the demonic roaring and Dwayne grunted as he fell onto his hands and knees, the natives gasped in horror when they see Dwayne's vision literally turn red, and the memory ended. Dwayne got back up and everybody looked at him,

"I always wondered who chained the door up." Dwayne said,

"I did, Dr. Flayer, Dr. Death, Dr. Skull, and Dr. Devil did as well, that room is a portal to a demon's realm." Dr. Shadow replied,

"That explains a lot, I felt like I was dying at that moment." Dwayne said,

"Even if it's just a memory, even we can feel the demonic energy in there." Princess Luna replied,

"Yes, it's obvious there's some kind of malevolent entity in there, it's also magic, but very dangerous." Princess Celestia said,

"Well, Dwayne, we have to go back." Dr. Shadow said, and Dwayne went to go hug everyone as goodbye, he hugged Twilight Sparkle last,

"I hope you can find your friend." Twilight Sparkle said,

"I hope so, too." Dwayne replied,

"Good luck, Dwayne, and be careful." Princess Cadence said,

"I will, thanks." Dwayne replied,

"Remember, Dwayne, you're always welcome here." Princess Celestia said while smiling, Dwayne smiled back,

"Well, let's go." Dr. Shadow said, and he and Dwayne entered the portal while everyone said bye to him, the portal closed shortly afterwards, and everybody except Twilight Sparkle and Spike left, and Sunset Shimmer went back to her world,

"Okay, Spike, let's try to open a portal to Sunset's world again." Twilight Sparkle said, and she got ready to cast the spell.


Dwayne returned to his world and was back in his home, it was also the exact same day, and the exact same time when he got transferred to Twilight Sparkle's world, he puts the letter on the table, and then leaves to go to Styx Apartments to go find his friend.
