//-------------------------------------------------------// One of Old -by BlankBrony- //-------------------------------------------------------// //-------------------------------------------------------// Everything I see again //-------------------------------------------------------// Everything I see again Everything I see again Everything. How long has it been? Am I awakening? It cannot be, These allowed me to finally rest... Didn't they? For so many millenia I have sought These to free me of my existence, and when I finnally have them, I was tricked? If I was only a millenia's young, I would be frustrated, but I'm older than time itself, and my rage finally ended. Hmm, it seems that a new kind of mortal awoke me. I believe they are called ponies? They seem shocked, at least the, what was it called again? Blue? Yes blue, blue one looked like. Instead of the excited white bigger one besides her. "Oh Luna this is so exciting!!!! Do you know what this is?" The still jumping before me, white and pink maned mare? Yes mare said. Funny, last time I saw mortals of equine genes weren't sentient. Again, I'm talking about His creation. "N-no?" The blue one responded. She sounds terrified, I guess mortals still fears me. "I know right!!!! This is so exciting!!! It could be something of a looooonng time before ponies existed!!!!" The bouncing white foal? Filly replied. Oh if only you knew little one, and by the looks of it your still a millenia's young, well for me at least. "Tia please can we go home? I don't feel good about this" Luna, I think her sister? Called her, said in a worried and fearful tone. If I was a million years younger when my rage was still in action, you would have the right reaction to your situation. "Oh come on Lulu" Tia? Said in a teasing voice while poking at me. I should probably look at myself after this. "See? It's not even alive!" Oh poor little Tia, if only you knew. Then I began to will the earth around me to shake, making both little fillies hug themselves while shaking. "T-t-Tia. W-w-what's going on?" Luna said, tears falling of her eyes. "I-I-I don't k-k-know Luna" Tia replied, trying not to cry herself. "I see" I said, not moving any part of my physical body, but making my voice echoing throught all of what seems like a temple. "W-w-who's there?" Tia said still shaking while trying to confort her sister crying out loud. " I am called many names little one" I said, still making my voice echoing trought all of the still shaking structure, but this time making my eyes glow in a firery blaze, making the flame of a thousand suns seems like a flashlight compared to my eyes. Now that I look at my physical body in an omnipotent form, I kept the form from the first time I fought They who banished my will inside the bane of everything I made. I was sitting on a throne made of stone, my body covered in black scales, scales I'm proud to say, are the most durable, resistable, toughest anything from the everything He made, I still have my robe like baner around my waist, my face carying the pain of everything I destroyed during my existence, my hair, blacker than a black hole, leaving no light escapd from my hair. My hair, I made them turn ablaze, flowing in the never existing wind around me, the flame like feel they make make the flames of every suns in one of His universes feel like a candle flame. "Y-y-you ard alive?" Said Tia while looking at my unholy body. " I am neither alive neither dead little pony" I said, she looks skeptical but my imposing body and the way I said it sounding more like 'it's a fact' instead of 'it's a joke', made her instantly change attitude. "T-t-then how is it possible? Then what are you?" She said, shocked by the fact that I am neither dead or alive. I straightened my body, looking like the 'First' True Opposite. "I do not remember how as I am older than time but what I am? I am simply the opposite of He who created everything from nothing, I am He who destroyed everything from everything. But not anymore as I seem to be free of my cursed existance." I said, they looked shocked, well even more than they were before. "Do not worry, I do not expect mortals to understand me, for only He can do so" I said trying to ease their poor mortal minds. "M-m-mortals? We are immortal!! We are Alicorns!! Who are you to say we are mere mortal?" Said, suprisingly not Tia, but Luna, who sounded angry at my statement. "Child!" I exclaimed making the ground shake even more and some of the strucures fallen rocks to fly and hover mid-air. This made them both 'eep' and cower on the ground. "Have you not listened? I am He who destroys everything from nothing! I am older than times itself! Only He and I have the rights to be called True Immortals, for We have existed to make everthing and nothing coexists! If you are alive now it's because of Us!" I continued, making the whole temple fly above the clouds, when we stoped, I stopped the flow of time, then flew high in the sky, then I made the stars rotate around me, making light trails circle around me as the sun shone my body to these insignificant mortals. " Remember, Childs, that I am the second ruler of everything and nothing! Look! You cannot hope to compare yourself to my power! And for that you did, you shall be brought to eternal pain" I roared making supernovas in the space behind me, well far away behind me. "Well at least you should be brought to eternal pain, have I not been tired of being His opposite" I said making everything back to normal and making the temple return to it's original place. Then I left, leaving two traumatized fillies behind in the temple. "T-t-t-ia" Luna said before fainting. Tia looked at Luna trying to scream her name before fainting herself. "They both fainted only because I showed not even a fraction of my power. The mortals have extremely weakened during my abscence." I said looking at them from the forest that surrounded the temple. Author's Note Here's another chapter of the little story I make for 'why not' of it. Also Demise's supposed to be evil but I decided to change that because my twisted mind said so, so please don't end me. Oh and he's a little too much maybe perfectly god-like. Nevermind his definitivly how I describe him in the story. He who made all's Opposite. //-------------------------------------------------------// Saved by He who destroys all //-------------------------------------------------------// Saved by He who destroys all Saved by He who destroys all Oh the poor little pony, how long has it been since last I felt bad about a mortal? Third person POV "Please, don't hurt me..." Fluttershy squeaked, hiding behind her mane and closing her eyes waiting for the mortal blow...... But nothing. She then open her eyes, and looked confused, in front of her was still the Timberwolves glaring at her with hungry eyes, but they stood still. Then she heard a voice from everywhere around her saying. "Do not worry mortal, they won't come closer" It said. Fluttershy was terrified by this, she couldn't see the one talking making her hide behind a bush, shaking madly she squeaked. " who's there?" She was at the edge of having a heart attack from the unexpected voice. " I am called many name little one, but if you need to know, I am He who destroys all. Well at least was." The disembodied voice said, trying to hide his little sadness of the fact that He is the One that destroys all, not being allowed death to rest his eternal soul. Fluttershy quickly picked up on his sadness, making her relax a little, feeling a little bit sad herself. "O-okay..." She said with a voice carrying sadness and empathy. He noticed this but decided not to bother, it felt nice to him. "You are kind, little one, you should close your eyes." It said making Fluttershy shiver, thinking what would happen to the Timberwolves? Not wanting to know she closed her eyes. Immediatly after, she heard multiple loud thuds, like multiple heavy things fell on the ground. She open her eyes, and immediatly shutted them, what she saw was terrifying. What she saw was a glimpse of a black mass with fire on top, while having chunks of wood under it. She opened her eyes again, and instantly tried to close them again, well tried, her curiosity taking over her to look longer at the mass. It was a very muscular biped, with black scale all over it's body and a robe at it's waist, it had claws that looked that it could cut throught everything, arms that could crush everything, now that she thought about it, it specifically said it was 'He who destroys all', blushing, embarassed by thinking he was an 'it' but then quickly stopped when she focused on 'who destroys all' part, making her shake in fear. She knew he wasn't joking when he said that, and his body accentuated this statement, every part of his body exactly look like they could litterally destroy all. Her thoughts were immediatly shutted down when he turned around, she could see his face with a white scar on his forehead in an X way, it was glowing as if it was sacred. Then his eyes, she could feel his anger, well his past anger, because he didn't give off the aura of anger, his eyes seems to hold this trait of anger with an orange and red glow, making the Princess's Sun's flames look shameful compared to the one his eyes gave off, and not just his eyes, his hairs too, they were flowing like the Princess's mane, but it was a hellfire flow, growing and growing, but somehow still at the same height, unlike the Princess's mane flows in the air in a graceful and calming one, his hair flowed like a barbaric fire that never stops even if water was thrown on it, it carried the anger of everything, but she still couldn't sense the anger in his aura unlike the one his whole body gave off. "Are you allright little pony?" He said, not everywhere anymore, making Fluttershy calm down and nod, when she looked around to see where the Timberwolves were, her eyes widen when she saw the unmoving chucks of wood under Him, completly crushed and no longer had the looks of a wolf, but a chuck of wood making her back away in fear. "Do not worry little one, I will not hurt you" He said, while his body said 'I will end your miserable life' his aura said exactly what He said, she couldn't help but stop fearing him. "W-w-w-w-what are you? If you don't mind me asking..." She said shaking, not from fear but because she was crushed by the power he was giving off, while only murmuring the last part. "I am what mortals would call a God, while some called me the Devil, and the bravest of them all called me 'Demise'" He said, sounding disgusted with the mention of 'God', annoyed by 'Devil', and with power 'Demise' that made the ground shake a little. It made Fluttershy shiver at the mention of 'Demise'. Why was he called 'Demise'? She tought but didn't bother further. "Maybe you should go little one, it is getting dark" He said while looking at the setting sun. Fluttershy only nodded in response and walked of while saying 'Goodbye' in a very very quietly matter, but Demise heard it and smiled, well tried to at least making it look like a mocking smirk, it was good that Fluttershy didn't tought it was a mocking smirk but a genualy happy smile, so she smile in return. She then saw Him disapear with a black smoke, then she went to her cottage, thinking about what just happened and if she should tell someone. While He was thinking about what to say in the upcoming event. Author's Note Here's the new chapter, seriously Fluttershy best waifu, but I don't ship her because I think she's too pure to be with anyone. //-------------------------------------------------------// Main 6 //-------------------------------------------------------// Main 6 Main 6 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. Author's Note Boy thats a long chapter, hope you guys like it! I got nothing much to say besides advertise for my other story "The Master of a Rotten Vale" and saying that chapters will be out slower than average, got things to do in life you know. Till next time! //-------------------------------------------------------// Going throught PonyVille //-------------------------------------------------------// Going throught PonyVille Going throught PonyVille This world is so peaceful... Demise's POV Hmmm, I should probably see what is this celebration they speak about, and they seem to want me here too as I sense their desire of my presence, maybe I should look more like a pony? I then proceed to make a new form, how ironic, He who used ro destroy all now make things. After a while, I finished my new pony form, I was a unicorn, I kept the fiery hair and made it a fiery mane, I made my scale look like armor and I made my robe as a cape, my fur was as black as the void of nothing but I still needed to have a cutie mark, as it is the representation of your talent. Hmm, I was imprisoned by my destiny to destroy all, so, maybe if I make a black hole locked by broken chains? I will keep thid cutie mark for now. As I walk throught the forest to Fluttershy's cottage, I noticed that the animals doesn't seemed to be afraid of me anymore, because a bird just went on my back and sung a little lullaby... A lullaby... "Oh umm sorry... Um who are you mister?" A timid voice I recognize was Fluttershsy's said timidly behind me after bumping into me, I turned around to answer but I was cutted. "Oh It's you! You came to the celebration!" She exclaimed while examining my body, she looked up and down at my entire body then blushed a deep red. "O-o-oh my... You certainly look um... handsome" She said the last part quietly a blushed harder trying to look away. "Well thank you Fluttershy, would you mind if I stay with you until we start the celebration?" I said kindly, it was certainly odd seeing me being 'kind'. "S-s-stay? W-w-with me?" She said while shaking, then fainted, I quickly got to her to catch her. "Poor little Fluttershy, I need to get her back at her cottage" I said while picking her up and placing her on my back, then I saw a blue blur coming strainght at me, it was so slow I didn't even slightly move to dodge. It was Rainbow Dash, she got up and went over me. "HEY! What did you do to Fluttershy!? I swear if yo-" she stopped and stared at me, then her eyes widen. "YOU! WHAT DID YOU DO TO FLUTTERSHY?! WERE YOU KIDNAPPING HER?! I KNEW WE COULDN'T TRUST YOU!" she exclaimed and tried to kick me again, wich I dodge, we continued like this until we arrived at Fluttershy's, I entered still dodging the hyperexcited mare and placed Fluttershy on the couch, while dodging, and I made sure Rainbow Dash didn't hit Fluttershy, as I wouldn't want to injure her more. *SLAM* The door was bursted open and 4 mares came throught. "Rainbow Dash what's going on?" "The hay 's happenin' RD?" "Twilight! I was preparing a dress for the celebration!" "ALLRIGHT ALLRIGHT WHATS GOING ON IN HERE?" They all said, Twilight looking worried, AJ looking mad at RD, Rarity panting while glaring at Twilight, and Pinkie Pie with a police officer costume with shades. When they noticed me, Twilight was confused, AJ was suspicious, Rarity was fantasming and Pinkie Pie just stared at me still with the shades. "Who are you?" Twilight said, not recognizing me. "Twilight Sparkle, it hurts you know? I just came back from eternity after being freed of my destiny so I gained emotions you know?" I said while looking hurt and desperetly grabbing my armored chest. "It's You?" She said, it seems like she wanted to call me Demise but refrained. "Yes it is me, and in that form maybe I should be called Star Demise, as it seems a little appropriate don't you think?" I said, she looked amused by the name but I didn't really care. "Well Star, you seem quite dashing in that armor of scales and cape." Rarity said with a seductive tone, this made AJ frowned then look at me. "So, can you now tell us what the hay happened 'ere?" She said while looking at the unconscious Fluttershy and panting Rainbow Dash. "Well I was considering coming to the celebration of the little princess return so I made this pony form to be able to not cause a panick and so when I finished I decided to stay with Fluttershy until the celebration's start, after walking out of the forest to her cottage I was bumped by her, she didn't recognize me at first but when she did she then stared at me and blushed and said I look handsome, after that, I thanked her and demanded if I could stay with her until the celebration's start, but she fainted, after that I pick her on my back to come here but RD here assumed that I was kidnapping Fluttershy and proceeded to rush me with kicks, wich I dodged, we continued like this until we arrived here and I placed Fluttershy on the couch still dodging RD's ruthless kicks, then you came in." I explained, it took quite a while for them to let the info sink in, and when it did, AJ and Twilight rushed over RD and scolded her while Pinkie Pie and Rarity went to check on Fluttershy. "Ok ok, I'm sorry!" RD said to the two furious mares. "It's not to us you need to say sorry to" they said in unisson while pointing at me. "Ok, I'm sorry dude, no hard feeling?" RD said with puppy eyes. "These eyes won't work on me but I'm willing to forgive you" I said wich made her sight in relief, then, little sounds could be heard towards Fluttershy, she was waking up. "Oh my head, what happened? I dreamed about somepony looking like a knight willing to stay with me." Fluttershy said looking around, when she noticed me, she nearly fell unconscious again, but was kept back up by Rarity. "Yes I wanted to stay with you before the celebration starts, wich looks like it's going to be now." I said, pointing at the setting sun, at this Twilight jumped. "Oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no, I'm going to be late!" She exclaimed while taking all of us and dragged us at Ponyville's TownHall. There was Celestia talking and Luna behind her. "Good evening my little ponies, today I want to celebrate the return of my little sister Princess Luna!" She exclaimed and the ponies cheered when they saw Luna. After this, they were socializing with her and it was pretty relaxing, Celestia spotted us and came over. "Princess Celestia! I'm sorry we were late!" Twilight said in a sad tone, Celestia smiled and put a hoof under Twilight's muzzle to make eye contact. "Please Twilight, you do not need to apologize but you certainly need to introduce me to your new friend" She said while looking at me with 'This' look, she didn't even recognized me, Twilight blushed in response. "Well this is Star Demise Princess and well..." Twilight said and looked around but said quietly to Celestia. "He's Demise Princess" She said, this made the Princess eyes widen then she bushed when she realised she did 'This' look on me. "O-oh my, I'm sorry" Celestia said in a sad tone, because I was as tall as Celestia, I took my right hoof and put it under her muzzle to make eye contact. "Please Celestia, you do not need to apologize but you certainly need to be more observant." I said, this made Twilight and the others giggled and Celestia blush, altought I received quite the attention when I did this, as the mares were watching me with hungry eyes while the stallions were watching me with envy eyes. This amused me, it was the first time something amused me without being in relation to death or torture. "Now now, do not act this way Celestia, were in public and your subjects are currently watching you with a moment of weakness" I said releasing her, she realised what was happening and immediatly recompose herself, but the blush didn't go away, making her look ridiculous. This made me snort. "Please Celestia, try to truly recompose yourself, the blush make you look like a clown when you try to be serious with it" This made her blush even more and the girls giggled at this. "Um.. Princess Celestia? Could you present us um... Your coltfriend?" Mayor Mare said from behind Celestia, this made me laugh but the girl blushed. "C-c-coltfriend? He isn't any of the sort!" Celestia exclaimed, this made Mayor Mare look skeptical but she backed away just in case, then she looked at me. "Oh how rude of me, I am Star Demise, one of Celestia's old friend... Nevermind, just say I'm her coltfriend" I said while grinning maliciously while I wrapped my front hooves around Celestia's neck. At this, everypony blushed and I just tried to contain my laugh. Then I was blasted by a yellow beam, it suprised me to the point I turned to smoke. "Malicious being! W-w-what were you thinking when you said that?!" Celestia exclaimed, then looked at where she shotted the beam, then she tought she killed me so she began to cry, with Fluttershy on my 'ashes'. "Oh what did I do?" Celestia muttered between sobs, this was going so fast the ponies just stood still trying to process what is just happening, a moment their Princess was happy and anounced her sister's return, another there was this unicorn who was as tall as her and made her blush, and now she was crying because she killed somepony they assumed was her coltfriend. Then I began to make my calamity smoke appear in the 'ashes'. "You should know by now that I cannot be killed little princess" I said in my echoing voice, this made everypony 'eep' and look at the calamity smoke, then it rose high in the sky, making clouds appear then it fell down but stopped just in front of Celestia's face, who stood still in fear. I began to form my pony face in the smoke then looked at her with my golden eyes. "Yet you still leave a tear to a thing that is worst that anything" I said while reforming my pony body, when I was fully back, I made the clouds disperse and the atmosphere go back to normal, this made the ponies relax a bit but now look doubtful of me. Celestia just stood here, still with tears trailing down. "Please do not cry, I do not deserve the pity of anything, I have lived long enought to be able to say this" I said while shoving the tears. I did the same with Fluttershy. "You too Fluttershy" I said, this made both of them smile at me, while RD was just whistling, wich got her a smack on the back of her face, Pinkie laughed at that, while Rarity was fantasizing hard and Twilight was trying to figure how I did what I did. But then, there was an explosion in the middle of Ponyville... Author's Note Yes yes I love you too Till next chapter x) //-------------------------------------------------------// Old Friend //-------------------------------------------------------// Old Friend Old Friend It's been a long time Old Friend.... Demise's POV I heard an explosion in the middle of Ponyville, everypony panicked and became a a running mess. These ponies may be sentient but they kept their instinct, how ironic. "Well then, it seems like something interesting is happening here" I said with a satisfied look, I got smacked in the back of my head, two times, I looked behind and saw Celestia and Fluttershy with mad look. "It's not the time to have fun 'Star Demise' " Fluttershy said with a bit of 'The Stare' in it. "Yes, she is right 'Star Demise', these are my little ponies we are talking about" Celestia said trying to do 'The Stare', which failed miserably, so she looked like she have the hardest frown in the world. "Ok ok, I am gonna see what's going on over there" I said while turning in my calamity form and went to the source of the explosion, I could hear somepony said "Wait for Us!" behind me, but I didn't care so I went without them. When I was there, I saw fire and guards running, but it wasn't normal fire, it was black fire with... diamond rising with the black fire? 'Where have I seen Black Diamond rising from Black Fire before?' I tought while rememoring my past lives. But I was cutted by a demonic laugh from the fire. "Foolish ponies, to think they could stand against the Lord of Demons?!" It said in a demonic voice. I then saw a black form coming out of the fire while making it sound like metal's clashing. "Well well well, another foolidh pony?" The form said, oh now I remember. "Well well well, if it isn't my old friend Ghirahim" I said, silence fell on us, the cries of ponies were shutted down, the shriek of the fire muted, we only existed, then, Ghirahim bowed. "Master, it has been a long time." He said, not an ounce of hesitation in his voice. "Yes, It has been a long time, but, can you please make the fire go?" I said, while it may sound like a demand, I made it sound like an order in his ears. "Of course master." He said then snapped his fingers, and all of the fire were gone, ponies were healed even if I didn't ask for it. "Master, may I ask why you are in a pony form? If I may, It is disgusting." He said in a disgusted tone, it amused me, yes I was in a weak form of a pony that blinds the imposing power that I have, but I didn't care as I wanted to stay like this until Princess Celestia announce me publicaly in my Demise form. "I am in this form as to not make the locale mortals panick, you should know why that is as our souls are connected." I said, he looked skeptical but when he searched trought my memories, his eyes widen. "Master! Is it really your entire meaning of having the Triforce?" He exclaimed. "Yes, as I was cursed by my own reason of being, I sought the Triforce to free me, that is why you are the first thing that I create, and that I am proud of" I said, making him bow lower. "Please Master, I do not deserve such praise from you. Now that I know what was your plan and that it is accomplished, what do we do now?" He questionned while looking up from his bow. "I do not know, but it seems like we are living with the mortals of this world now, so please, refrain from insulting them and respect the two Princesses of this world like you respect me, altought you may not bow to any of them, just respect them in a general matter, not in royal one." I said, when I said he should respect them like me he looked sad and disgusted, but when I said he did not have to bow to them and that he needed to respect them in a general matter he was at ease now. "Star Demise! What happened?" Celestia said from afar running with Fluttershy and the others. "Well, it seems like an old friend of mine has returned." I said to her when she was in front of me, she looked worried from this. "And who is it?" Fluttershy said with a smile, she maybe is happy that I had friends. "His name is Ghirahim, My Sword and the Demon Lord of my Ancient Army." I said, they looked shocked by this, their eyes widen when they saw Ghirahim step out from behind me. "Hello little Ponies, I am Ghirahim, Master's Loyal Sword and shield and eternal Demon Lord of his majesty's Army." He said while making a little bow with his hand press against his chest in a noble fashion. "D-d-demon Lord?" Fluttershy squeeked, I nodded and Ghirahim looked amused. "What do you mean, 'Master's Loyal Sword'?" Celestia said in a cautious voice. I mentionned Ghirahim to show them his True Form. He did so and turned into a sword, they looked shocked again and Twilight was desperatly trying to examinate him, but was stopped by Celestia, RD tried to jump on the sword to take it but was stopped by AJ, and Pinkie was trying to shoot a party at me but was blocked by Rarity's sofa, where she herself was fainting. He returned in his human form and went by my side, he looked neutral but I knew he was thinking about a million ways to torture each an everypony present. "And that fire?" Celestia said while looking at the perfectly normal Ponyville. "He was the cause, but quickly returned everything to normal when he saw me." I explained, she look at me then Ghirahim and sigh. "I guess we need to introduce you two to the ponies, but, just don't say your demons allright? just say your beings from a far away land and that you were travelling." Celestia said sighting. "Come to Canterlot, we need to prepare the introduction." She said in a serious tone now. "Allright, Come old friend, I'm sure you would love to show them 'your fashion' " I said to Ghirahim, who had sparkles in his eyes and grinned maliciously. Celestia then had a chariot to go to Canterlot, the two pegasus that were in charge of it looked shocked when seeing Ghirahim in his sword form, I made him like this so not to make a panick attack, they looked envious when looking at me, I guess I don't blame them, Celestia is a charming mare and I'm alreay being assumed to be her coltfriend, and I'm pretty sure I heard them say 'look at that sword, I bet I woud look cool with it.' 'Nevermind the sword, look at this dude, I don't even blame Princess Celestia falling for him.' How amusing The ride was uneventful, I was looking at the night sky besides Celestia, who was staring at me from times to times, Ghirahim still was in his sword form, we were talking telepathicaly so not to disturb the ride. 'Master, I sensed a monstruous amount of power coming from the six ponies from before, the Princess was not better, I assumed that they are a match to the goddess Hylia's power, what do we do with them?' he said to me. 'Nothing, they use their power to the one they think as a threat, as I am relatively friendly to them, I do not think it is necessary to do anything, and besides, they can't do much to me, altought be careful with your actions, I am letting you do whatever you want but don't do things that could be seen as threats to them. We are curently consider as allies to them so don't mess this up.' I said with power and authority. 'Very well Master' He replied, admiring my train of thoughts. "We are arriving Star." Celestia said while looking at me then at the palace. It was, I must say, glorious, the gold and the quartz are going well together, even the parts where there was obsidian and saphire don't look odd. I guess the gold and quartz is Celestia's part and he oblisdian and saphire, Luna's. "I must say, throught all the timeless lives I lived, ths one Castle is one of the best, even thought it doesn't stand as much as Hyrule's." I said admiring the palace. "O-o-oh, it's not much." Celestia's said, blushing from the compliment, then she looked curious. "But, what is this 'Hyrule' you speak of? Is it a kingdom?" She questionned. "Yes, yes it is, it's a kingdom that lasted for many many millenia's, the castle's that were built in it could be seen from everywhere in the continent, it was ruled by one princess, Princess Zelda who is always the reincarnation of the goddess Hylia, the goddess that protected the artefacts." I said, she looked suprised and shocked, but then frowned a little at the mention of 'Princess Zelda'. I think I heard her say something about not letting me in the hooves of another princess or something. Amusing, she is jealous of little Zelda? Truly amusing. We entered the throne room and it was beautiful, it was on par with the one of Zelda from the time I met Xant. Then I saw a stallion with a blonde mane and a white coat, I could sense cockyness from him, it was oozing, Ghirahim glowed and pulsed hatred towards this pony, who didn't even noticed it. "Auntie! A commoner filly's dirtied my hooves with dirt! We need to punish her immediatly and throw her and her father in the dungeons!" He exclaimed and Celestia looked tired just by looking at him. "No Blueblood, we aren't gonna punish them..." She said while sighting. "But Auntie!" He pleaded, Celestia just shoved him away. Then he noticed me besides Celestia. He looked from my black mane, to my yellow eyes, to my scaled armored hoof. "Who are you! And who do you think you are to be worthy of Aunti's hoof!" He exclaimed, this quickly got Celestia to blush, this made him more furious. "This shall not happen! I will not let you take away my place! I challenge you to a duel!" He said while summoning a magical sword and planted it on the ground. This got my eyes glowing red and my mane fired, it was exciting but I couldn't let somepony get away when he proposed a duel. "Just a question. Is it a duel until one of us forfeit... Or until one of us die" I said the last part with my echoing and booming voice. This got him to shake a little but he didn't fall in fear. How couragous. "Until one of us die!" He exclaimed, I could sense hesitation in his voice, but he stayed determined. "NO! You will not do this duel!" Celestia bursted. "Sorry Celestia, but a duel is proposed to me, and I can't take down a duel when I already did so many of them without hesitation." I said to Celestia, who looked at me with a glint of fear in her eyes. "Very well, but it is not until one of you dies, it will be until I decide to stop it, is it allright with you two." Celestia said, Blueblood nodded a bit relunctant about it but nodded anyway. "Very well, I shall not kill him, but I know someone who will be sadden by this." I said while looking at Ghirahim's sword form, who oozed bloodlust. "Very well, the duel will start tomorrow in the training grounds, it shall be public auntie so that everypony can see me humiliate this unworthy stallion." Blueblood said with cockiness and arrogance while dismissing the planted sword and going away. "Oh dear, what did I agreed to." Celestia muttered and I just smiled. 'This will be interesting, let's see what this pony got in him' I tought, a thought that got to Ghirahim, who just laughted madly in his mind. Author's Note Here goes Blueblood, rip poor dude. Also, Demise will fight in his pony form to let a little handicap to Blublood, and don't worry for those who already miss good old Demise's demon king form, it will happen... Next chapter... //-------------------------------------------------------// Duel //-------------------------------------------------------// Author's Note Warning! Contain violence because of Blueblood! Duel Duel How foolish of this pride-blinded mortal... Canterlot training grounds... Third person's POV It was early in the morning, the duel preparation is almost done and the training ground is already cleaned. Ponies already started to gather around the training grounds. "Please do not kill him..." A pleading mare voice said, it was Princess Celestia's one. "Do not worry, I'll try not to, and I say try because Ghirahim here keeps sending hatred puses full of bloodlust. And don't even try to destroy him, he's the direct counterpart of the bane of evil so the Elements of Harmony won't really work on him." Another intimidating voice said, it was Demise's one. After he said that Celestia was quickly shutted down, because everything he just said was everything she just tought to do. "*sigh*Ok, you can hurt him but do not kill him please." Celestia said, not only to Demise but to Ghirahim pulsing sword form, who looked satisfied by this plan because he stopped pulsing. Then, they arrived in the arena, and the challenger of the mighty Demon King was already here, slashing a pony manequin the size of Demise's pony form. When the ponies saw 'Star Demise' coming in the arena, they all roared in unisson. 'How ironic, herbivores who are normally preys to act barbarically like a predator' Star thought, amused by this reaction from his entrance in a simple area a half miles wide. This got the attention of the challenger, Blueblood. "So you came? How foolish of you to stand against me, but I shall make you less suffer as I planned for your couragous act." He said with a cocky tone, full of pride and arrogance. "..." Star didn't say anything, he just stared at Blueblood's cocky smirk. "Well? Got nothing to say you filthy pony?" Blueblood said when he noticed Star's silence. "Yes I have one thing to say. You are the most foolish mortal I've ever seen." Star said while mocking the 'foolish mortal', the said mortal was quickly angered and summoned many swords in the sky. "Shut your mouth filthy pony! Who do you think you are to call me a foolish mortal!?" He exclaimed while pointing all of the summoned magical swords at Star's body. "How rude of me to not introduce myself, I am Star Demise. Or if I am not in this form. I am He who destroys all" Star said while making calamity smoke leaking from him, he let the malice aura infect the sky, making it darken and full of malice clouds, preventing from any magical and aerial 'disturbance'. Star's eyes glowed now looking like two compressed Sun's looking at Blueblood, his mane was firing, looking like the hellfire that rise to burn the heavens. Blueblood on the other hoof, was shaking in fear from the imposing power leaking out of Star's body, but he still remained with his sword pointed at the embodiement of power in his pony form. The pony who were looking with enthousiasm now looked fearful at Star Demise, some thinking of who is this mysterious stallion, others thinking of what is this stallion. "Y-Y-Y-Your illusions won't work on me!" Blueblood screamed trying not to piss himself. "Amusing, but foolish nonetheless." Star said picking up Ghirahim with one front hoof, then stood up on his hind legs, everypony looked confused by this action. Then, Celestia who was besides Luna, who looked excited by this, annouced the start of the duel. "Begin!" She exclaimed, Blueblood charged at Star, but Star on the other hoof, was standing still, then he brought up his sword to eye level, then seemed to slowly cut the space in front of him, still on eye level, Blueblood looked confused by this but still was charging. Then, Star pointed his sword at the darken sky, a sky wich was now roaring after Star's action. Then dark smoke started to rise underneath his hooves swirling around his body, he then looked at Blueblood. "Foolish pony to stand against my infinite power, feel the pain of the victims of your actions, burn in the flames of the hatred of the ones you tortured, drown in the tears of the ones you made cry, suffer in the Nightmares you brought upon the ones you made become sleepless!" He incantated, this made Blueblood stop, then he screamed at every sentence Star said, as Star incantate, Blueblood started to scream in pain, then he was burning in black flames, after this he seemed to drown as he was spasing on the ground, then he grabbed his head and screamed in agony with his eyes starting to have black bags under them. This was repeating for several minutes, one minute each sentence, minutes that traumatized the ponies watching, minutes when the sky was darken by unlimited power, minutes when Celestia was shocked and eyes widen, minutes where Fluttershy was crying eyes closed, when Twilight tried to cast an analyse spell wich was blocked by dark magic, when AppleJack lowered her hat to not look at the scene, when Rainbow Dash tried not to cower in fear as she already shamed herself by shaking in fear, when Rarity wasn't even conscious on her sofa, when Pinkie Pie's mane deflate, her coat darkened as she looked down in saddness. After these minutes of pain, Blueblood fainted, seeming lifeless but was still alive, his coat was burned, fire still lingering on him, he was at the same time wet and humid with water and saliva spilling out of his mouth, his eyes were fully open with black dots as pupils and black bags of tiredness under these traumatized eyes. Star Demise looked at the spasing body of his challenger, just a few minutes ago, this same body was charging at him full of pride and arrogance, and now, it turned into a broken mind and body. Then he looked at the cursed sword somehow sticking on his hoof, it glowed in satisfaction, then seemed to rest with a glimering blade as if he was smiling while sleeping. He then looked at Celestia, who stood still like a statue with Luna besides her as a statue like her sister. "So... Did I win?" Star Demise said to them while smiling, making the sky go back to normal and disperse the darkened cloud seemed to give back Time it's ability to flow as the ponies started to move again with the Princess muttering between each other. "Y-Yes." Celestia said while shaking in fear. "Princess Celestia! Who is him!? And why isn't he banished in tartarus!?" Some Noble said. "It is because she can't do so, as I said... I a m He who destroys all" Star Demise, no, Demise said, turning into his original form. This made everypony cower in fear besides the main 6 and the Princesses. "P-Please my little ponies! Calm down!" Celestia desperatly said. "How can we calm down! This, Thing is too dangearous!" One pony said and everyone (everyone because Demise too) looked at Celestia in agreement. "Princess! An Ursa Major was spotted near Canterlot! It is currently destroying the outter defenses!" A guard said, this made everypony run for their lives as when they looked at the outskirt of Canterlot, they could see a giant Ursa Major wreaking the walls outside Canterlot. "Well well well, it seems like I can prove to be harmless to ponies now" Demise said, this got a confused but then understanding look from the ponies and the Princesses. //-------------------------------------------------------// First kill //-------------------------------------------------------// First kill First kill How long has it been since I last killed? Everfree Forest, 2 days ago... Demise's POV A celebration for the little princess? Maybe I should join... "Hmmm? What is this?" I said while hearing a loud roar, I then saw multiple animals run away from where the roar came from. I walked slowly towards the area from where the animals ran from, I even saw little hydras run away. After a little while, I saw middle grown hydras dead on the ground, some chucks of woods from Timberwolves andbits of fur from manticores, the roars continued and I saw something interesting in the middle of all of this mess. It was huge, some kind of bear with stars on it's blue fur, but the most interesting thing is that the stars moved like actual stars, making him look like a moving constellation. He was currently 'playing' with a pack of manticores, it got hit a few times but quickly retaliated. "How nostalgic, It reminds me of the time Her choosen One first fought against a whole battalion of bokoblin, the same determination and courage as him." I said while contemplating the courageous celestial bear against a whole pack of bloodthirsty, posion-tailed manticores. After a while, the bear remained victorious as he roared to claim the victory, it panted to steady himself from the bloodbath he just did, then it noticed me, it seems to examinate me as he smelled my way, after a moment he roared at me. "How foolish of you, come then, show me what you are capable of! I deem you worthy to fight me as you remind me of an old foe, so COME AT ME!" I roared back, he seem to understand this as he proceed to rush at me, because I don't have Ghirahim, I will have to do this barehand, a true fight between beasts, victory depends completly on strenght. "Truly marvelous, such bravery to stand against me even thought I know you can sense my power, you are the exact replica of Her choosen One, very well, I shall make this fight fair as I respect the brave souls." I said while supressing my powers besides strenght. After he got in a melee range, he immediatly threw a punch at me, a punch I counter with another punch, the power behind his is amazing, nothing in any, well some of the worlds can't stand against my supressed power punch, and this beast right here still stand after one, truly amazing. The punch became so powerful it started to shape the land around us, cracks started to form on the earth after each blow, it was amusing, so much so I started to laugh. Then I noticed he started to tire out when I just started to enjoy this. "No, I won't let you stop when I just started to enjoy this!" I screamed while making him heal some stamina. But it was no use, as he started to drift off and fall on the ground, he looked tired and in pain. "You lack stamina but you have what it takes to be a hero, as you seem to be in pain, I shall end your life quickly." I said, but as I started to make the final blow, he died, confused by this I examined him, and I saw a stinger in his body. "The poison killed him when he was weakened enought, at least it was as painless as it could be." I said while leaving a black flower on his corpse, the flower was made from the deepest core of my magic, as I only make it to show my respect to the foes that deserve it, the flower is Immortal, it will never die and only I can do so, so to show eternal rest to them. "Now, if I want to go to the celebration, I need to go as a pony..." I said, trailing off to think about what form I would take, but I did notice a loud roar from afar, it sounded to come from the brave bear I left, but I didn't bother as I had something better to think about... Canterlot, Present Time We all heard a loud roar from outside of Canterlot, and I saw a same looking celestial bear outside of the city, unlike the other one, it had purple fur and it was much much bigger, then I tought about something. "Say, Is this bear a mother?" I questionned to Celestia, she looked confused and taken back from this question. "Y-Yes, it looks like it." She said still confused why I asked this. Then it hitted me, it was his mother. "Then I know why it came here then." I stated, this made Celestia jump and look straight at my eyes, I could see she tried to fire her eyes like mine. "What....Did....You....DO!" She exclaimed, I love how these ponies seemed to assume the worst things when looking at me. "Hmm, before I came to Ponyville as a pony, I was visiting the Everfree Forest, then there was a loud roar and the animals started to run away from the source, because it seemed interesting, I went to the source of the roar, wich was blue bear with moving stars in it's fur, it was slaughtering manticores and timberwolf with some middle height hydras, adter he finished, he noticed me and we started to brawl bare claws as I didn't have Ghirahim, I must say he was magnificient as a foe, he reminded me of Hylia's choosen one as he showed courage and determination when he standed against me, after a while he fell from tiredness and the manticores poison killed him, to pay my respect I left behind a black flower made of my purest magic at the core of my being." I said, it took a long minute for Celestia to process the information, and when it did, she looked like she was gonna explode, but instead sigh. "You know that what you witnessed was the natural cycle of life of an Ursa Minor, and that he was fighting in the area he was to claim it as a territory, and when you killed him, the mother went on a rampage." She said, it was plauseable. "Well, I made this mess so I will go kill her." I said while changing in my little size calamity form. "Wait! You can't fight an Ursa Major alone! It is too powerful!" She exclaimed to me, I just smirk. "Did I even introduced myself to you?" I said to her in my calamity form, she blushed when she realised what she just said, then I went over the Ursa Major. While on my way over there I could hear Celestia order the guards to fall back to let me take care of it, I could see the guards looking confused and disappointed, I could see some ponies crying and running away from the ruins of their homes. Then, I arrived at the gigantic celestial bear, a terror of this world as it seems like. "Well well well, is it me your looking for?" I said to her as I form in on the forteress wall she was currently wreaking, when she noticed me, she roared with full hatred and proceeded to launch a powerful slash of claw at me. But because my powers are not restrained, it didn't even touched me as it was stopped by the amount of power there is around my body. She looked confused by this and then started to attack me slash after slash, it didn't hurt me but it did destroy the fortress wall, I was getting bored from her attemps of killing me so I rose Ghirahim high to the sky, making the sky darkened and dark clouds to form, as black smoke rose from the ground to the sky, I made an incantation. "Beast blinded by anger! Fall in front of my power and turn to ashes !" I incantate, the rampaging beast stopped, her eyes started to flash then when the flash died down, she stood still, then fell on her four legs, her fur started to turn grey as the stars on it faded away, then bits of her started to flow off with the wind, and soon enought she was turned to ashes, and a mountain of them formed in front of me. I heard ponies running towards me, when I turned around I saw Celestia with the girls looking at me then the mountain of ashes behind me with confused eyes. "What... happened?" Celestia said, I looked at her then I pointed at the ashes. "This is what became of the Ursa Major" Then I pointed at the ruined area of the city. "And this is what came after her rampage." I said while looking back at them, they had wide eyes and horror written all over their faces. "You...turned...an Ursa Major that caused this much damaged to the city.... to ashes?" Twilight repeated shocked, I nodded and she immediatly jumped at me, but I dodged, when I look behind and at her on the ground, she had a furious blush on her as she look at me, then recomposed herself while standing up. "How is this possible?!!! There's no spell that could do that, and even if that existed, there's no way anything can cast it !!!" She exclaimed, I looked at her with a deadpan look. "Shall I remind you...To who you are speaking to?" I stated with a booming voice, this made her back away in fear. "What about the city?" Celestia interrupted with a pleading look that said 'please don't show anything to Twilight' "Just a moment, please back away." I said while gathering calamity smoke, they all noticed it and backed away in fear but still were curious. I then released the calamity smoke in the ruined area, it was like a plague, a plague that infected the air, it was levitating the rumbles back to where they are supposed to be, taking the injured ponies to Celestia, who was to focused on my doing to notice them. After 5 long minutes, the area was good as new, well besides the plaguing smoke that still lurked in here, but I soon gathered it inside my body. I turned around to see jaw-dropped ponies, Celestia, the girls, and the rescued ponies looked at me with blank stares, then one pony coming from behind Celestia rushed over one of the rescued ponies. "Dad! Your safe!" The pegasus mare said. "Yes I am, all thanks to him" the unicorn replied while pointing at me, the mare looked skeptical but when she saw the calamity smoke coming from the city to my body, her eyes widen, with tears pouring out of them. "Thank you! Thank you so much for saving my father! Can I please ask your name?" She asked me with puppy eyes, I was still thinking of how these ponies can be so easly forgiving and accepting. " I have no names, but recently I acquired the name of Star Demise, please to meet you miss..." "Storm Breeze, please to meet you too Star Demise." She said while blushing a little, I don't get it, even thought I'm in my original form, they don't fear me anymore just because I saved lives. After our introduction she and and her father said their goodbyes while going to the hospital. I then looked at Celestia, who was still processing that I just saved ponies and repaired the city at the same time. "It looks like I got a good start of introduction after all." I stated, this brought back Celestia out of her thoughts. But before she could say anything, a rainbow blur came into my vision. "Dude! That was so Awsome! And you said this pile of ashes is the Ursa Major?! This is so awsome, well not as much as me." Rainbow Dash said while pumping her chest. "oh poor mother... I hope it was at least painless Star" Fluttershy said while looking at the ashes with teary eyes, I nodded wich got a smile from her. " 'Oly molly! You are one powerful stallion! I bet you could buck all o' mah apple trees with just a punch!" AppleJack said admiring the ashes. " Darling! You must tell me what fabric your robe is made of! I was dying to ask you but I didn't get a chance with all of this mess!" Rarity exclaimed while examinating my robe. "YAY!!!! I get to do a 'welcome to Equestria' party AND a 'Thank you for saving us from that big scary Ursy Mama' party!" Pinkie Pie said while making confetis appear out of nowhere, this didn't really confused me as I've seen many beings deforming the laws of everything. "I need to study you! You have so much knowledge in you I can't bear to wait a minute! How did you make the Ursa Major turn to ash?! Was it dark magic?! Then if that is, how are you not corrupted by it?! And how did you made that purpulish smoke repair the city AND saving injured ponies?! Wh-" She was stopped by Celestia's wing covering her face. "Please Twilight calm down, but for now we need to introduce him to the ponies." When she said this, Ghirahim started to pulse and glow in my hand. "Introduce 'them' to the ponies, please forgive me." She said to Ghirahim, who gave her a satisfied pulse. "Now come" She said and we all followed, but before that she ordered the guards to escort the ponies to the nearest hospital. I was looking at the sky and sigh in nostalgia, it was interesting to fight again, even thought it wasn't even fair, I feel quite relaxed now. After this, I followed the ponies behind. Author's Note Here's the chapter! Hope you like it! Also, I'm going back on the other two stories so to not make the trackers wait too long. Till next chapter. //-------------------------------------------------------// War //-------------------------------------------------------// War War War never leaves me, even if the world I am in is too peaceful to have it. The ponies are easily forgiving, even if I ooze illimited power, I was following the girls in the Castle, it seems like I will be introduced to the population, maybe even granted the title of hero. How ironic, me? To become a hero? When I only bring destruction? Truly amusing. "Now wait here until I annouce your name." Celestia said, it reminded me of Zelda, and her unwavering face. "Don't worry, it'll be fine, of course it will, yes yes it's fine!" Twilight repeated, she seems to be talking to me, but more to herself than me. "My little ponies! Today, I will present you the being who took care of the Ursa Major, as well as repairing the city! Do not fear his power and might, because he is only a traveler from a far away land!" Celestia started to say, the ponies seems enthousiastics because they all cheered. "His name is Star Demise, and he is accompanied by his sword Ghirahim." She said, they seemed confused by the mention of Ghirahim, then I started to come out, I was taller than Celestia, she only came at the heigh of my neck, this must have suprised them, I could tell from the face they were making. "I am Star Demise, and this is my sword Ghirahim." I said with my omnipotent voice, making them shiver, while pointing at Ghirahim in his sword form, the ponies looked confused before I motionned Ghirahim to show his true form, wich he did dramaticaly, making lightining strike the blade and black fire engulfing his being. "Hello." He said while bowing a little. They all backed away somehow in unisson, it was amusing. "You may ask questions now." I said because I really had nothing to say besides the Truth of my identity. "What are you?" A courageous pony ask while coming closer. "Monster, Hero, God, Devil. Call me whatever you like." I replied, he looked puzzled, maybe he was trying to find the correct definition of my being. The rest of the ponies relaxed a little and came closer. "How are you talking like this?" A little orange filly asked. "It is just part of my powers, I talk like this so that everypony can hear me." I replied. "Cool!" She said. Now, the ponies were flooding me, well tried to because I had a forcefield around me to prevent them to do so. "Mister, what's your relationship with the Princess?""How did you take care of an Ursa Major.""Please can I have your autograph?""Can I pay you to be the bodyguard of my familly?" They asked, all trying to get answer from me, I just stood, there letting the forcefield protect me while Ghirahim was enjoying the attention he was getting, but still annoyed and letting bloodlust flowing throught his body. "PRINCESS CELESTIA!" A guard shouted from behind me. "THE DRAGONS ARE COMING!" He shouted, all of the ponies were now running in panick. "Calm down my little ponies!" Celestia shouted, they all stopped and looked at Celestia standing besides me. "What do you mean the dragons are coming." She asked to the panicking guard. "One of our patrol team saw thousands of dragon coming this way near the Celestial Sea, they were breaching the borders of Equestria while burning some of our settlements, they said that they would burn Equestria down. Not only that but changelings started to invade the south and are currently heading for the palace, the patrols reported that they will go throught the badlands at the same time as the dragons." He explained, Celestia's eyes widen, and the ponies started to panick again, I followed her inside of the Castle, she was talking with the girls. "Princess what do we do?! The Elements can't help us in a situation where there's multiple targets!" I heard Twilight exclaim. How troublesome, but I guess I need to take care of this. "Let me handle this." I said while entering the meeting room. This startled everypony. "How? How can you battle against a whole army of dragons by yourself! Not to mention that probably the whole changeling army is coming too!" Twilight exclaimed and all of them looked at me. "*sigh* I will summon my army." I said, their eyes went wide. "Y-Y-You have an army?" Celestia said. "Yes, yes I have, I will go into the battle myself, I was not called the Demon King for no reason, why do you think there is 'King' in the title." I asked, they all stared at me with wide eyes. "I just need a terrain to summon my army." I said. "Will the badland do? It is near the Celestial Sea so that the battle will start in the badland." She said while showing me a map of Equestria. https://camo.fimfiction.net/COSsKtNZyQTmH0glC3g_podd2vzt1ARe5NF66TZ2LQY?url=https%3A%2F%2Fvignette.wikia.nocookie.net%2Fmlp%2Fimages%2Fa%2Fa4%2FMap_of_Equestria_2015.jpg%2Frevision%2Flatest%3Fcb%3D20151205072352 "Yes it is fine, with this map I can see the location of the badlands, if you wish to witness the battle or not is none of my concern as of this moment, right now I'm more concern about these dragons than anything really." I stated, the looks they gave me told me that they were too shocked to process the information, well there's not much information that I shared so I don't understand why they reacted in such a way. "We will come!" Rainbow Dash said, what a foolish statement but it is to be expected from such a rash and fire headed mare. "I will to! I need to see what magic you are going to use!" Twilight exclaimed while launching herself to me, wich ended in her having her muzzle red and being on the floor. "Ow..." "Um... I'll stay in Ponyville to take care of the animal." Fluttershy said, understandable for somepony with her personality. "I'm quite curious myself, even if it will certainly be gruesome, a knight in shining armor is not seen everyday in action, well in your case it's more shining obsidian scales." Rarity stated. "Welp, I'll stay in Ponyville to finish with the daily apple harvest." Applejack said. "Sorry to disappoint you girls but I will go early in the badlands because the summoning can take quite some time." I said while turning into calamity smoke and going directly to the badlands not looking behind me, I didn't need to because I knew that they would just accept it and prepare to arrive at a later time. After a while of flying as a calamity and letting it plague my path to gain information on the near flora and fauna, not that it was necessary but it would be useful in the future if I need to use the environnement to my advantage, and also because I'm curious as to how the world changed. "It looks like the badlands, a fitting name for such a desolated land." I said while looking at the ruin before me, it looked like a desert but no, it was clearly an area where a great civilisation was last, I knew ruins when I see one and this area is definitly one. "Oh? Interesting." I said suprised to see a very very familiar statue, at least what was left of it. It was a quarter of the face of the long lost statue of Hylia. I reverted back to my original Demise form. "You never leave me alone do you? I guess it is to be expected of the one who protected the artifacts that released me so many years ago, it's nice to see you again Goddess Hylia." I said while making a little bow, Hylia was one of the only being I truly respected, mostly for her stubborness against me and my forces. As if the the statue heard his greetings, a light pleasing breeze made it's way to me, amusing truly amusing. Then, countless magic circles appeared under me, writtings, so old and complex that the beauty of the cosmos looked 'ugly' compared to them, appearded in these circles, then, the earth cracked, and monsters from different age and timelines swarmed the badlands in less than a minute. Ten monsters standed out of the countless ones that swarmed the land : Argorok, a fiercful dragon, titled king of the sky Gohma, corrupted arachnoid parasite ArmoGohma, a cousin of Ghoma but in a more evolved form Volvagia, a wingless dragon made of scale harder than anything and covered in constant fire Bongo Bongo, a cursed mortal turn into a monster with disembodied hands and body with one eye that could see everything. King Dodongo, a primal dinosaur rivaling the power of Argorok Twinmold, a colossal masked worm leaving nothing living underground Stallord, an undead dinosaur but unlike before, he have his whole body back and is now able to move freely around. Levias, normally is a guardian spirit but now is corrupted, serving under me as a flying whale able to strike down anything with lightning. The Imprisonned, it's normally myself but I made a clone of my third form as the imprisonned. These monsters are the main force, each have different underlings, for the arachnid and Twinmold, they have insectoid monsters, for Bongo Bongo and Stallord, they have the undead monsters, for Volvagia and King Dodongo, they have reptilian monsters like lizalfos and the likes, for Levias and Argorok, they get all the flying monsters and for my other self, he gets all of the existing monsters, but all of them have a common underlings, goblins and moblins. Currently, our number are past millions, the badland is overpopulated and maybe even have more than the population of Equestria, the sky, the surface and even underground have too many monster, it became so ridiculous that the earth and everything in the surrounding areas shook or crumbled. "It might start soon." I say when I noticed a cloud of dragons coming towards our direction. Author's Note Sorry if the story plot might seem weird, well my writting in general becoming weird, that's because I'm staring to become bored of writting and being out of ideas, that's basically what I warned you guys in the description in the story "The Master of a Rotten Vale (https://www.fimfiction.net/story/451556/the-master-of-a-rotten-vale)." //-------------------------------------------------------// A battle against a Devil //-------------------------------------------------------// A battle against a Devil A battle against a Devil From under the world he came out. To destroy our world he is out... Canterlot Castle... Third Person's POV 'What is happening?' Celestia thought, the situation Equestria was now is indeed questionable, even for a ruler that has a millennia of experience. Celestia was trying to remember when it all began, but it was so long ago she didn't remember. All the events up until now were not going as she planned, all she wanted to do was to train Twilight for an accession, but the world wouldn't do as she wanted. All the achievements and goals she completed through her long life seemed to be crushed by this being, the hard work she did to reunite the whole Kingdom after Discord's fall, the depression she overcame after she banished her own sister, the peace treaty between all of the Kingdoms, and finally, finding a prodigy to take the throne. But all of that has been destroyed, or at least put aside, by the existence of this being. The being itself was a monster, no, no monster would compare to this thing. For now, it is a being of unimaginable powers, so much power in fact that it managed to drive away the favours of Fate, and because it is a being of war, countless battles already started happening in her kingdom from the Ursa Major to Blueblood to now a war with the changelings and the dragons. And it's not even been a full month since it started! For now, she needed to do something about what he said, an army. "Princess." Celestia heard her prodigy said trying to gain her attention but to no success as Celestia was lost in her thoughts. But surprisingly, it didn't matter to Twilight. "How did we end up in this situation?" She said now staring straight at Celestia, who managed to stare back at her. Celestia sighed then composed herself then looked at the direction Demise went to. "I don't think we can change what we did, let's just hope that he would change it himself." She said to Twilight before calling a few of her elite guards and Shining Armor as well, she needed to make sure that He won't destroy the countries around the badlands. "Let's go!" She exclaimed then a battalion as well as a chariot went to the battlefield. Two hours later, Badlands... 'What is this?' Celestia thought, not just herself but everypony present to witness the monstrosity that became the badlands. Before her eyes were countless monsters from demons to undeads to even mythical beasts, on the other side, she saw a swarm of changelings and dragons coming towards them, but even if they get here, not only would their numbers be overwhelm, but even with the strength of the dragons, their power would also be overwhelm. Just the presence of demons and undead is ridiculous as they are seen as legends and myths by the ponies that are only good for stories to foals, but now, it was all real, undeads exists and they look exactly how the legends said them to be. Dead corpse revived. Not only undeads but demons too, it was the same thing as the undeads but their origins are different. Undeads are said to be made when a wandering soul's grudges are so painful that they start to manifest as a physical body representing them, not even known black magic could make one as it would consume all of the magics that an Alicorn would have to just be able to summon a soul. Demons are known for being the residents of Tartarus, where the worst of the worst are sent too, it is said that demons are the offsprings of such beings. But what they saw was not only what the stories told them, it was worst than them at the same time, only hatred could be felt from the undeads and the demons are clad in the blood of their victims without even having one! But it's not just them that terrified the ponies, it was the ten noticeable beast in the mix of monsters. All of them were monsters variations of their original self, there was even a dragon looking more terrifying than actual dragon, an undead whose height would rival mountains, a monster whose scales were all too familiar...Wait. "Demise? He is battling to?" Twilight asked in shock. It's not surprising to react like that as the general rule of war says that the commander should never attend the battle, but there, there was the Lord and Commander fighting with his soldiers, Twilight knew this because of mandatory lessons about history, she didn't really mind as she craved for knowledge bit the origin of such knowledge didn't please her a bit, like eating a very salty sweet. "Hey! Why are you so surprised about? They're nothing to us!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed desperately trying to hide her fears which didn't work as the look of her friends showed annoyance and pity for not realising that such military force could not be beaten. Only one of them didn't show any fear towards Demise, it was Fluttershy who instead showed sadness, sadness for the situation he was in. Demise already explained that he was tormented for many millennials by dying and reviving from endless torture that was war, and here he was battling again even after being granted freedom. This truly hurted Fluttershy's natural kindness, but it didn't go as well for her instinct as it always screamed to her that she should fly and leave as far as she could from this being keeping her from moving a single muscle. Then, all of the sudden, all of the beasts started to run wild towards the swarms, it divided in two stampede of monsters, one was running towards the changelings, and the other went straight to the dragons. But, something was wrong, only three beings stayed in the badlands, when everypony started to look closer to them, all eyes went wide. There were three Demises in three different form, one was the scaled giant standing there, on his head was the original Demise with his arms crossed and Ghirahim sticking on his waist, and in the sky flying around the two Demises was the form Demise would take when travelling, his calamity form. Then, suddenly, the original Demise jumped from beast Demise head straight to the ground while punching it with so much power that an earthquake happened after it, then something unexpected happened. Diamond Dogs were popping out of the ground while the earthquake was happening. All eyes went wide when this happened because none of them noticed the Diamond Dogs digging through the ground. "He noticed their presence even through the ground..." Celestia state as she looked at the scene before her. Celestia planned to help Demise in the battle but it seems like he didn't need any of it. But then, when the earthquake stopped and that the Diamond Dogs were brought out, monsters came out from the ground completely eating them without leaving even blood. It was a gruesome sight sure, but for the ponies, they seemed to be used to this with Blood Blood, plus they thought that He was on their side so that what happened to the Diamond Dogs won't happen to them and the rest of ponykind. Meanwhile, the Dragons were fighting fiercely against the swimming and flying monsters while the changelings were being destroyed by the running monsters. "It's quite the spectacle isn't it?" Somepony said from beside the ponies, when all eyes turned to see who it was they all had different kind of expressions. Some looked at him with a very confused look but one of them had fears building up in her mind. "DIscord..." //-------------------------------------------------------// Memories... //-------------------------------------------------------// Memories... Memories For so long have I longed for power, for when I'm not, never resting I became... So many millenia's have I sought the powers of the Ones that created everything, for they have made three forbidden triangles to touch upon the mortal world, for they are the very reason I exists, for the True Ones never liked unbalance, for they have made me to be the 'balance' against them. For the very creation, I existed, when time didn't exists. For when the First came to be, I was made to be the 'First' opposite, after He created the everything from nothing, I destroyed everything from everything, when He made his first 'companions', I made my own 'minions'. From the nothing he created everything, from everything I made everything nothing When he created They who would look up to him, when They who would look up to me, would start to fear me. When They who would worship He who made All. When They who would loath me I who destroyed All. When He, who disappeared in the vast ocean that is nothing. When They who hoped to see Him again, When They who hoped to see me gone from the very everything They live on. When He who returned to merely go away, leaving the everything He made from nothing behind. When I who left the everything He made from nothing. When They who lost faith in both Him and Me. When I who would seek Him accross the Infinite everything He made. When They who would named me the very being opposite to Him for I was just the mere creation of nothing and everything, with the only meaning of my being is to destroy everything He made. And when I saw The Ones, with the power to rule over rules, by making three forbidden artifacts, that even He couodn't make. When I sought them to free me of my eternal work. When These found Them, to become their weilders. When The Ones tried to end Me. When I was blinded by rage over the Ones. When He who wields the bane of everything I made, tried to end me. When I cursed him, cursed me to an never ending return. Whene These were always in my reach, never the thought of ending this cycle came when These were at my reach. For They named me "Demise", a name lost in time. When I finally wished upon These to free me. When I was set somewhere, to be lost in Time. For I, who untill this day never came back. For I hoped, to never come back. When two of Them came to me. Because of Them. Awoke I became.... //-------------------------------------------------------// A land that I never knew //-------------------------------------------------------// A land that I never knew Of the many worlds I visited, I wished I knew this one in my time of needs... Across Equus How beautiful this land is, a peaceful realm where war never spilled innocent blood. And yet the dominant species I learned are ponies still fear the unknown, even if they lasted many millenia's, having their elders tell and teach lessons still didn't make their natural instincts go away. Tirek, Sombra, Chrysalis, Discord. The names of the most feared one of the pony race, and yet, they still are afraid of them even if they were defeated. And by who? The little fillies I founded not so long ago, well, some centuries ago. And even with this they haven't forgot about me, every now and then, when I leak a nanoscopic portion of my power, they start to shake and have their eyes widen. Altought lately, they think it is the doing of the Spirit of Chaos and Disharmony, Discord. Oh my, when I first heard hes existance, I was amused by the title he got by merely shaking the world and rewritting the laws of physics, every minor gods know how to do that, I'm still suprised that the little princesses have only accomplished Celestial bodies manipulation. But I think I know why, they both don't go on the 'general minor godhood' path, they go on 'specific minor godhood' path. Like Ra or even good old Hylia, being the goddess of time. While Me and He do not go on any godhood path because were the only 'First Ones' to exists, we still do specifics. He who makes everything from nothing, and I who destroys everything from everything. Now these two have the complete 'Sun and Moon' written all over them, litteraly. But Discord is nothing really suprising, just the fact that he's kind of the 'prodigy' of the minor gods, just because of the fact that he could twist reality when he was only a millenia's young. After some centuries however, little Luna was being corrupted, or so they all tought, but I knew. This 'Nightmare Moon' is only the manifestation of Luna's natural godhood 'instincts', because the gods of the Moons never really did well with the ones of the Suns, so, when Luna's Jalousy was but a seed, it grew with the 'fertilizer' that is Nightmare Moon. But at the end, she was banished to the litteral manifestation of her whole being. The Moon. While the methods of her Banishment were interesting at first, when uncovered I was a little suprised but quickly understood. The Elements were gems that He made with an infinitly little amount of his power. About as much as I used to show the little show off that traumatized the princesses. After a millenia's, the gems took new 'hosts' that were, interesting, and now that I look at them from nowhere in the reality, they look like the mortals that we left behind created. "Oh how much I miss the physical world" I said, while taking my 'Demise' form in the Everfree forest, previously host to my now, lost temple. "Hmm?" I questionned while looking at what looks like wolves made of Timber growling at me. "Foolish mortals, to take a battle against me." I said, feeling pity to the poor dogs tbat will be crushed by my power. After leaking just so much to shake the reality inside an area that I mentally made, so to be unnoticed, the wolves began to shake, then fall lifeless, souls crushed by the pressure of an inifinitivly little amount of my powers. "Poor mortals, driven by blinding intincts." I said still feeling pity over the now just wolves sculptures made of wood. After walking around the forest, I noticed how everywhere I walk, the earth dies, leaving behind ashes. Even if my powers are completly restricted, my body still kills without them. So I decided to float to move. Looking around, I saw all of the wildlife trying to hide from me, to the cute little animals to Ursa Majors walking around the forest. Then I came to a stop when I heard a howl and a little shriek from inside the forest. Quickly changing to omnipotence view, I saw one of the Elements, Fluttershy running from Timberwolves, apparently running to the outside of the forests, but she stumbled on a root in the way and couldn't get back up, while the Timberwolves slowly approaches her. "I guess it's time to be known by the public"
