They all stared at the appearance of The Dragon Deity himself. “Holy… Shit…” Said Krotos.

“We’re staring at the Dragon Deity himself.” Said Ber “The Dragon rumored to genocide all the Alicorns.” She said as she noticed the stares from the Alicorn Princesses “Uh… the Alicorns that were tyrannical rulers that enslaved every species I mean. There was no evidence showing any good Alicorns.”

“There were good Alicorns.” Said the Dragon Deity. “After I slain the ones who were heartless to even the youth, there were some Alicorns who chose to rebel against their tyrannical ways, not many but a few. I aided them in escaping but erase their memories of their old lives and their knowledge of their natural talents by their request, so they can rediscover their talent like a newborn starting out in life.” Said the Dragon Deity as Celestia, Luna and Twilight understood why he did that.

(“He did that so the rebel Alicorns of the past, so they don’t suffer the nightmares they grew up under those tyrants.”) Thought Twilight as Dragon Deity looked at them.

“Now young adventurers, for making it to the core of the dungeon; you must choose 2 options; 1: Do you wish to destroy this Dungeon? Or 2: You wish to earn a [Skill] by random?”

“What does he mean by ‘Destroy this Dungeon’?” Asked Luna as Neolas turned to her.

“It’s a choice if a dungeon has become too dangerous or hazardous if the adventurers are unable to destroy to core. But I heard that you can’t trick him into destroying the dungeon with adventurers in it.” She said to Luna looked at him as Ber turned to Celestia.

“I also heard if you try to use force on him, he’ll plague you by bending your reality into a living nightmare of fear.” She said as Celestia was worried by what Ber said.

“What is your choice? One may speak for all.” They all looked at each other and decide what is their choice.

“We all chose ‘Earn a [Skill] by random’.” Said AI as The Dragon Deity shrank as he looked at a respected leader.

“I do believe this is where we finally meet, son.”

“Father…” Said AI as the group smiled at the sight of a father and son reunion. AI smiled but realized something when his father shrank down. “Wait…” The group reacted to AI’s reaction “That voice…” He said as AI started to get pissed off. “THAT WAS YOU?!” He yelled in rage as they were confused by him “YOU’RE THE [God’s Voice] I HEARD! THE SAME ONE WHO WANTED TO BESTOW YOUR [PLAYBOY] TITLE!?!?!?” He screamed as they, but Krotos were shocked to hear that.

“So, the rumors about the Dragon Deity mated over a 100 females were true.” He spoke as Neolas backed away as AI’s father laughed.

“(Normal Man Voice) Yeah, that was me.” He said as everyone looked at him “What? You think I become stay as a wise and divine dragon? After 500,000 years as a soul, you can’t take it anymore and be yourself when no one goes to you for anything.” Twilight was baffled by how AI’s father’s true personality.

“What… Why…”

“Why am I like this? Simple, once you’re dead; all the responsibilities in life doesn’t matter. You can’t keep cuddling them even after you kicked the bucket. It’s like a seed, you start small, grow in time, it creates more seeds as your children and die. That’s the cycle of life, you can’t keep something that goes on forever. Even immortals get tired of the cycle of living, you’ll understand that in time.” Said AI’s father as he laughed as started to vanish.

“WAIT!” Yelled AI “I have questions that need answers! How can I stop the Equestrian Conquerors?! Where are your scales that contain Legendary Skills?! Do I have a mother or siblings?!” He screamed as AI’s father laughed.

“I’ll give you some answers. Take down the figure head is always the common answer, Find them since you’re no longer a child and the last part… marriage wasn’t a trust pack during that time, they get bored of the male or female they’re with and move on to the next mate.” He said as they were a bit disgusted to hear that. “Trust me kids, you have it lucky. After them females keep breaking my heart 49 times, you make sure and hope the future generation never be like their ancestors. Love and Relationships meant something now than before.”He said as he vanished as a box with a hole in it, on a small table appeared where he was standing with a note tape to it.

This box contains balls that will give you a [Skill] by random. Here’s the list of what the balls contain.

• White Ball – Common Skill
• Yellow Ball – Uncommon Skill
• Blue Ball – Rare Skill
• Red Ball – Unique Skill

All but my son can take one. I’ll give you one that has to help others if you can think of one.

Love Father

AI narrowed his eyes “I guess that Old Man isn’t kind all the time. Even to his son that he created.” He said angerly as Krotos looked at it.

“Wait. There’s more.” They looked at him “P.S. produce me a grandkid with a… I won’t say the rest.” He said as AI snatched and read it.

*SNARL* AI shredded the note in anger. “Perverted Old Dragon, I hope I don’t be like him.” He said as he looked at the box. “Pull a ball to earn a [Skill]. Whose going 1st?” Asked AI as they looked at each other. Twilight decided to go 1st as a learning experience.

“I don’t know what will happen, but it will be an interesting learning experience.” She said as pulled out a white ball as it was absorbed into her. “What the?!” She said as words appeared in her head.

Twilight Sparkle learned [Grow Fungus]

Twilight looked confused and confused. “[Grow Fungus]…? what kind of thing is that?!”

>[Grow Fungus]

She said as she’d focus on it as her horn glowed as mushrooms started to grow on her horn. They all saw that as Spike and AI covered their mouths to hold in their laughs. Twilight didn’t like it. “THIS ISN’T FUNNY!!! I wish to change this for another.”

“Sorry, no exchanges or do-overs.”

Twilight turned red by it.

“Think of the bright side, you can grow a supply of mushrooms for food or research the extinct variety.”

Twilight wanted to argue but realized the possibilities of certain mushrooms could benefits on some of her studies and smiled. “I never realized that. This could help with the study of extinct species of mushrooms!” She said as she examined the mushrooms that grew on her horn as Spike took his turn as he tried to pull out a yellow ball as words appeared in his head.

Spike learned [Bounce Ball]

Spike was confused “Uh… what’s [Bounce Ball]?”

>[Bounce Ball]

He said as it activated as a sphere appeared in front of him. “Is this it?” He said unhappily as Krotos looked amazed.

“I see these 4 years ago! Anyone who has these can ride them and use it to bounce up to as high as an Apple Tree!” He said as Spike started to dislike it “Plus, you can lay on it and relax the stress off your back.” He finished as Spike tried it out and felt relaxed.

“This is comfy…” He said as he was balanced on it as Luna and Celestia chuckled at it as Krotos took a turn and pulled out a Blue Ball as he smiled.

Krotos learned [Create Cloud]
>[Create Cloud]

Krotos used this new skill to create a small could in front of him, he jumped on it, bounce on it as he landed on his back to feel soft puffiness. “Ah… this will help with the bed issues.” He said as Neolas & Ber took a chance and pulled out their balls; Neolas got a Red Ball as Ber had a Blue Ball.

Neolas has learned [Infuse Element]
Ber has learned [Levitation]

Neolas pulled out her axe as she focuses on her new skill.

>[Infuse Element]

Her axe turned white as icicle crystals floated out it as she smashed the ground as a tower of ice appeared.

>[Infuse Element]

She focused as her axe turned green as she swung it as it unleashed a blast of wind. “Amazing.” She said as Ber was floating over them as she slowly dives down as she place her feet on her.

“This will help me with my scotting in the air.” She said happily as Celestia, and Luna looked at each other and they both took a ball as Celestia got a yellow ball as Luna got a white one.

“So, we get the common ability.” Said Luna as Celestia wondered about what she’ll get.

“Getting an ability or skill is very intriguing.” She said as the balls were absorbed.

Celestia learned [Laundry Magic]
Luna learned Cleaning Spell

They both looked confused as they looked at each other.

“[Cleaning Spell]?” Said Luna

>[Cleaning Spell]

She said as the dirt and swamp stains on her royal attire (On her body) got covered in soap foam as it absorbed the stains from her royal attire and vanish in thin air. Luna looked at her attire and smile. “We find this a wonder.” She said smiling as Celestia looked at Krotos, Neolas and Ber.

“Please explain the actions of [Laundry Magic]?” She asked as they were surprised.

“Lucky…” Said Neolas. “That skill is said to create a large orb of water that can wash your clothes without the washboard and bucket. They said that skill can remove the grime from goblins from your clothes and skin.” She said as Krotos and Ber nodded.

“I hated getting rid of the equipment that stained by that grime.” She said as they felt a bit jealous of Celestia as she smiled.

(“I won’t have to let some ponies washed my underwear for me anymore.”) She thought as they vanished except for AI. The group woke up as they saw AI was still asleep or still in Astral Projection. “I guess AI’s father still wants him to think of a skill to help others. The problem is, we don’t know what it is?” She said as Twilight notices they were vanishing.

“*GASP* What’s going on!?” She yelled as Spike was scared as well.

“This is what happens after you get your skill, you are magically returned to the entrance.” Explain Ber as Celestia & Luna used their magic to place a quill, a bottle of ink and papers near AI has they returned to the entrance.

Back at the Village
They appeared as Twilight’s friends looked angry at her. “Suga, you were told not to enter that here dungeon.” Said Applejack as Pinkie crossed her arms and pouted.

“You were told you had no… no… uh… legal rights to enter a dungeon.” She said as she couldn’t say the word ‘jurisdiction’.

“Darling, we were worried for you.” Said Rarity as Fluttershy nodded.

“Yeah, you could of taken us with you!” Said Rainbow, only to be hit with a shoe. Jax was holding another in anger.

“Mee-Mee.” He said as Fluttershy looked at him

“It’s not nice to call somepony a moron.” She said as Kara looked around to see someone not there.

“Where’s my beloved?” She said as Jax started to look worry.

“Mee-Mee-Mee?!” He said as they all looked at the dungeon as something ominous was emerging from the dungeon.

“WHAT IS THAT?!” Screamed Rarity as the villagers looked scared and ran being to some of the buildings that weren’t destroyed. A ghostly aura appeared over the dungeon as a pair of eyes formed in the aura.

“Well… nice to see your all save and sound.”

Twilight gasped as she knows that voice. “The Dragon Deity!” She yelled as the villagers’ gasp in shock as the ghostly aura was their ancestors’ savior and leader. They all bowed to him.

“At ease, you don’t need to bow to this old dragon. I am here to inform you about Abel/Izanagi.” They look concern as they stared at him. I gave him the skill he requested. They smiled as they know he’s okay. And I send him to another part of the island.

“WHAT?!/MEE?!” They yelled in shocked.

“One of the island is in danger of being conquered. So, I send him there to save it.”

“Then we’ll go and help him!” Said Twilight as the others looked confidence.

“I commend you for your actions.” They smiled as they looked proud “But… the law of today will prevent you.” He said as they looked confused as Shining realized what he meant.

“Oh no…” They turned to him. “We’re only here for 10 days!” He said as they realized that they can’t extend their stay because Equestria would be in a state of panic. They lower their heads as Ber cleared her throat.

“Don’t worry, princesses. We’ll keep an eye out for him.” She said as Krotos & Neolas smile as well.

“We’ll rank up to travel to the islands to find him.” Said Krotos. “We’ll know him by his name, the only dragon with 2 1st names.” He said as Neolas hugged her.

“Farewell, everyone. Your future is yours to create.” Said the Dragon Deity as the mist vanished as the crowd was filled with hope. Twilight looked worried as she heard a familiar voice. “My son will return to this section of the islands. He has one of my teleportation ability to take him to places and any bases he created. He’ll even appear in Equestria when he gets there. So, stop worrying like your own kid is growing up. See you if you enter a dungeon in Dragoon’s Haven.” Twilight smiled a bit as Celestia, and Luna will wait for the letter he’ll sent as Jax & Kara will stay at their cave where they’ve been staying until the village is restore and maybe, better than ever.

Somewhere on one of the islands of Dragoon’s Haven
AI woke up to the brightness of the sun. “Stupid old man…” He said as he looked to see an endless sea of sand. “I should have realized that Dragoon’s Haven was made of different islands in the shape of his body; a head, body, 2 arms, 2 legs, a pair of wings and a tail. I’m in the left wing of the islands and head is inaccessible due to destructive storms, violent waves & uncontrollable magic surrounding that island.” Said AI as remembers what his father told him.

FLASHBACK
“Remember, you must come up with a skill that benefits others than yourself.”Said AI’s Father as AI put some thought into it.

(“Something must benefit the locals, even if they don’t know how I do it?”) Thought AI as he looks back in his old life. (“Well… when I was still human; we had technology that made life easy but in a fantasy world where the steam train is the most advanced technology in this world, plus there isn’t that much pollution by power plants, smoke stacks, nuclear radiation, or waste.”) AI kept thinking and remember some other things. (“Online shopping made it possible for people to get some necessities like, clothing, food, cleaning supplies, electronics and toys.”) thought AI has realized what he remembered. “Online Shopping…” His father raised his brow.

“Excuse me?”

“Uh… well… its something that is not… from this world.” Said AI as his father looked at him with a raise brow as he touched him as his eyes flashed. “HEY! You checked my past!” He said as his father nodded.

"Yeah, & I understand what it is, and you are.” He said as snapped his fingers as AI received the new skill.

Abel/Izanagi learned [Online Shopping]

AI received it as he was prepared to go back to his body.

“Also, I’m sending you to a different island of Dragoon’s Haven.” Said the Dragon Deity as AI looked shocked.

“WHAT?!”

“Trust me… those innocent lives need you.” He said as AI went back to his body as he got absorb in a flash.

END OF FLASHBACK
AI stared at the sea of sand. “I better find some civilization.” He said as he marches forward “I feel like Lawrence of Arabia.” He muttered as the soul of the Dragon Deity watch him walk away.

(“So… he was human like me.”) He thought but paused (“But… our times are different. The women in that time are lewd. Showing their ankles in public as its common… how scandalous.”)

Author's Note

So that's AI's Father, the Dragon Deity. Yeah, before anyone ask why did his tone change? Tell me, if you had a longer life span and slow aging; would you learn to speak in a different tone as era changes with the citizens so you can communicate with them? Also if you're wondering why AI's father said that women in AI's time are lewd is simple. He was previously a human and from the Victorian Era before he died. I'll do his origins in the next chapter.
Please leave a comment, I'll add the stats for AI next chapter.
