Hmm, what should I say to these mortals?


Fluttershy's POV

I woke up in my cottage and saw Angel next to me, I picked him up and said.

"Oh Angel, I had a terrible nightmare, I was in the Everfree Forest to search for you then when I found you we were chased by Timberwolves, but I fell because of roots, and when I tought we was doomed, an intimidating creature saved us, it was tall and had black scale all over it's body, it stood on two legs and had a robe with what looked like ancient writing, then it had a face full of anger, with eyes that burned with flamed that seemed hotter than the sun, and his mane was flowing like the Princess's but unlike her graceful one, his were firery and barbaric! But even with all of that, he was gentle and seemed in pain. Oh I wish I could meet him again to help in return." When I finished, Angel glared at me and pointed at my hind legs, there was a bandage on it, then I looked at Angel.

"It wasn't a nightmare was it?" I questionned him, he nodded in response and I quickly got downstairs preparing to go in the Forest again, but Angel stopped me, then I remembered.

"Oh that's right! The Summer Sun's Celebration! It's happening this evening! And I didn't even prepare for it! quick I need to gather the group!"


Everfree Forest, 10 hours later...

Demise's POV

Hmm, this little purple pony is interesting, and she is the prodigy of one of the 'Immortal Alicorn'.

And I can sense a potential in her and the ponies she met while in Ponyville, they all had a nanoscopic amount of power from Him, so they can probably control what is consider in this world 'the most powerful weapons'.

It is night time right now and the little 'Immortal' on the Moon just returned, let's see how does six will deal with her.

"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA" The little 'Immortal' laughted, I guess being able to see everything is good in this situation.

"THE NIGHT WIL LAST FOREVER" She exclaimed before going away in a cloud form.

Then I saw the little purple pony, Twilight Sparkle was it? Run to a tree, a hollowed tree full of books. When she got in, she search for the book on the Elements of Harmony, she was cutted from her search when a fast rainbow maned pegasus flew in front of her, questionning about what was the Element of Harmony and if she was a spy, the other mares were inside too and the orange one said that Twilight wasn't a spy but certainly knew what was going on.

Then, Twilight explained the situation and what was the Elements of Harmony before going off to the Everfree Forest, where she explained that this was where the Elements were last seen. It was certainly interesting, Nightmare Moon didn't even noticed that, by making all these traps, she was helping them unlocking their potential and I'm pretty sure that Twilight will figure what is the source of power from these gems, "Friendship", something I never really knew but knew the concept of. It is pretty similar to 'solidarity' in a group of mortals, but the concept is more enhanced with His power, making solidarity go to 'complete social helping', it is like a group of cellullar organisms in a whole living organisms helping each others in near perfection.

After arriving at what looks like a Castle, they found the Elements, but only 5 of them, as the six one will appear only with a 'spark', but little Twilight didn't thought this trought more and only assume that the spark was the spark of a unicorn's horn, how foolish, this got the Elements stolen by Nightmare Moon, luckly, she managed to follow the teleportation.

"You're kidding, you're kidding right?" Nightmare Moon said, and only got Twilight rush for her, until she teleported behind her to the Elements, but she tried to do the same foolish actions from before, and this time, Nightmare Moon destroyed the Elements, well it seemed like it but I knew that His power could only be countered by mine. Fortunatly, Twilight finally understood what was the spark when her friends came in the room and managed to blast the Nightmare, well they tought they did, but they only returned the Nightmare deep inside the now little princess's soul, making the Nightmare asleep again.

After a while, the sun rose and the other 'Immortal' came out of the sun, why does she need to make an entrance like this while wasting magic for a little illusion spell? Pride is living among everything, even those that think they don't, as it seems like she needed to look imposing in front of her subjects.

"Good Job my little ponies." She said while sounding noble and graceful, she changed, she isn't the Prideful and curious mare she was so long ago. I needed to congratulate them, it was a good show of power and control over an urgent situation, so I manifested myself making black smoke with some being a darker purple and pink, I was manifesting on a little model of Calamity form, then made it come at one spot in front of the ponies.

"Show Yourself! I don't know what you are but if you mean no harm then Show yourself!" the little white princess said after hugging the other little princess who was now terrified and harmless.

"Good Job indeed little ponies" I said in my echoing voice, this made the princess's ear drop and Fluttershy's one to perk up.

"You..." the Princess said in a fearful voice when she saw my Demise form in the spot I made my Calamity form spin around.

"You!" another voice said, it was cheerful and was Fluttershy's, who flew right in front of me and beamed a smile.

"Thank You so much for saving me from Timberwolves yesterday!" She said, shocking both the Princess and the confused little ponies.

"You... saved her?" the Princess said to me. I nodded wich got a little smile on her muzzle.

"Thank... You. I never thought that You of all the other things would save a life" She said now fully smiling, still bits of fear in her voice.

"Princess what is he?" Twilight said quietly to the Princess.

"I can't say I really know..." She turned to me then said "Tell us, what are you?"

"I am many things, but I am He who destroys all, at least was, as my soul was granted freedom from my eternal destiny" I explained, making everypony confused as to 'why was I imprisonned from destiny?'

"What do you mean, 'granted freedom'? were you imprisonned?" Fluttershy questionned in a worried tone.

"No I was not, but I was chained by my destiny." This made her more confused.

"I was created since the beginning of everything, I assisted in the creation of every universe existant, but I was made to be He who created all's opposite, meaning that I was He who destroys all. I am older than time and everything, but because of forces unknown, I was created to balance everything, as you may know, everything has a balance, and that apply to the very being who created everything, and me, I am the one who destroys in opposition to He who create." I explained, this shocked everypony, by the fact that I was older than time itself, and that I am the very embodiement of destruction.

"But, that is horrible! You are kind but you existed only to destroy!" Fluttershy exclaimed, shocking everypony, even the princesses who were not expecting an outburst from Fluttershy.

"Then if that's the case, how were you able to free yourself from the very meaning of your existance?" Celestia questionned.

"I sought a power greater than even Himself, it was called the Triforce, an artifact made of 3 gold triangles created by three goddesses, I do not know how they were able to make an artifact more powerful than Him and I, but this artifact granted every whishes, but the gods couldn't use it. As I am not a god but more of the embodiement of destruction, I sought it's power to free me, but these goddesses made things so much harder." I explained, growling a little at the mention of the goddesses.

"They made the artifacts that even embodiement of power couldn't wield, so I had to make me mortal, the form you see now is the physical body I used to be able to wield the artifacts." I said pointing at my body, this got a nod from everypony.

"Wait, you sought power? You were evil once?" Rainbow Dash said with a glare, this got everypony to look at me with doubtful stares.

"Yes, yes I was, I was blinded by the possibility to free myself than I didn't think about the trillions of life I took during my quest." I said, this shocked everyone and made their jaws fall, Rainbow Dash even stopped flying, falling to the ground.

"Y-Y-You took trillions of innocent lives?" Fluttershy said, backing away in fear. This made Celestia start to charge up her horn.

"I did yes, but I got sealed by the goddess that protected the artifact, angering me to the point I was a mindless beast." I said while turning into my third imprisonned form, this shocked everypony and Celestia even attempted to blast me, to no end as the beam just bounced of my imprisonned form's scales, this made her back away, but I turned back to 'Demise'.

"I was then called Demise, a name I take on forever, to never make me forget what I did." I said in a sad tone, this made Celestia relax and Fluttershy sad.

"After a millenia, I came back and ate the soul of the goddess reincarnation." I continued before they could say sorry, but this made them stiffen by the fact I ate a soul.

"You ate a soul!" Luna exclaimed, rushing to me before being stopped by Celestia's wings.

"Calm down sister, he said so himself that he was blinded by anger!" Celesia tried to reason.

"Calm down?! This Monster ate a soul sister! This is a forbidden act that is punished by Imprisonnement in Tartarus!" Luna exclaimed, I snorted at the mention of Monster. I was called that by so many it was funny to hear it again after so long.

"Please calm down and let him tell the rest of his story" Celestia said, Luna stopped because she herself was curious.

"Thank you, after I ate the soul, I returned back in this form right now and fought the goddess chosen one, he is a knight clad in green who wields the bane of evil, the sword capable to harm and seal me, I cannot be killed as the unknown force of everything do not allow it to, so the sword was used to seal me, but before I was banished, I swore that I would come back everytime I was banished." I said, making them confused.

"But if you were sealed away, how were you able to free yourself of your destiny without the artifacts" Twilight questionned.

"As I said, I swore to come back and I did so, so did the goddess and her chosen knight, it took me dozens of reincarnations over the course of many dozens of millenia to get hold of the artifacts to wish for my soul to rest." I explained, making their eyes widen from the time it took to free me.

"Dozens of millenias?" Celestia repeated, I nodded making her jaw drop.

"But instead of allowing my soul to rest, I seem to be freed from my obligatory destruction." I finished.

"It is certainly a long journey you made." Celestia said while recomposing from the schock.

"Indeed, now isn't it time for you to go and annouce your little sister's return?" I said, making her realise.

"That's right! But, where are you going now?" Celestia said, a bit sad to leave me it seems.

"Somewhere unreachable by you ponies, exept her, I don't want to explain why because it is to complex for the mind of mortals" I said while pointing at a bouncing Pinkie Pie who just giggled at my statement.

"Wait! How can we call you?" Fluttershy asked.

"Do not worry, I will appear when you want me to be." I said while turning into my calamity form, this made the ground shake and the sky darkened.

"Goodbye little ponies." I said while dispersing the storm of darkness in the sky and my calamity smoke.

"GOODBYE DEMI" said Pinkie Pie throught a speaker this made everypony cover their poor hurting ears.

"Now come little ponies, we have a celebration to make" said Celestia and everypony cheered.
