Wait, what happened? Why am I in a Void and feel so powerful? Also, why do I feel like I should be dead?

Well look at that, I died. I can't even remember how it's like nearly everything from my past life was stripped away except small things like the fact that I died and my personality in general, although the latter may not be a good thing because I consider myself crazy to an extent. Not to mention I have now been given enough power to create a universe. Well better get started and maybe I'll learn more about whoever gave me that power.

This story is greatly influenced by the story "After Death, Creation" so if you enjoy this story I recommend you check that one out. From what I can tell now though, there will be differences to create a new story. It doesn't take place in the same universe however so until further notice, expect no crossovers.

The Day I Blew Up

Who'd have known being created would feel so strange?

I seemed to be just floating in a void not even fully conscious when I started to feel gradual energy start to build within my nonexistent body. It at first felt like a warm feeling spreading from my core, but it started to grow in strength. Once the warm energy filled my body it decided to fill even more yet still in my body.

It seemed to fill my body like it was filling every moment of my body through all of Eternity. It filled every spatial inch of my body to a subatomic level and then some. It even filled what felt like my emotions were being filled, simple nonexistent aspects of myself. It all became so overwhelming that my body felt like it was becoming chaotic and then the warmth spread to that as well, impossibly managing to fill chaos.

It wasn't painful, but I did feel like I was going to explode from the warmth's density buildup, and that is exactly what happened. I seemed to burst through an infinite amount of energy outburst, leaving me with an existent body. I seemed to still have an extremely large amount of energy in me, but it wasn't overwhelming like before. I felt like I had stabilized.

"I...What is this?" I asked no one at all there. It was, was myself. I tried looking myself over to answer the question, although I didn't come up with much. There did seem to be 4 major aspects of myself I could see right off the bat.

Time

Space

Emotion

and Chaos

I could feel each one impossibly coursing through my veins and decided to test them out, starting with Space.

"Okay, here I go," I said as tried to create spatial existence around myself as I knew I would need it to do anything else. Suddenly the void I was in became more than that. It became an area, movement, and proper existence, but something seemed wrong like it was unstable. It was then I realized Time hadn't been created so what could exist? I quickly applied Time so balance could be created, allowing Space to do its job, and marking the start of the universe. This also started the flow of everything and everyone's timeline throughout all of Time as I could tell.

I then thought to myself, what about Emotion and realized I hadn't been feeling anything myself. Even managing to create a universe, I couldn't feel pride because I hadn't activated it yet, so I did. I gave myself the feeling of Emotion and suddenly I felt many things at once. The fear from being filled with all that energy, the wonder from feeling the aspects of existence inside me, and the joy and pride of creating a universe.

However, it also activated loneliness in me so I decided to set to work on a first lifeform, but what should it be? It's not like I could just make an average creature since there were no planets yet. That's when I realized something, I seemed to be a god of some sort, and not only that but a major one based on the aspects inside me so I thought why not make more minor gods that can help out with running the universe? Part of me was thinking of looking into the Chaos aspect first, but being the person I am, I decided to procrastinate and started making the first minor god.

First, I contemplated what they should help with. Maybe Energy or Matter, but then I realized a common factor between the 2.

Space

This gave me the idea of creating a minor god for each aspect within myself, and my role would be to make sure each of them was adequately fulfilling their job.

Well no better place to start than with Space, but then I remembered how the universe reacted to only having Space. Could it go unstable again with only a Space god, which gave me the idea of making Space and Time twins as gods? Making them twins wouldn't be easy, but not impossible. I started by grabbing existence itself and pulling out a small chunk, making sure to take with me both Time and Space. I then separated both Time and Space but made sure to connect them by an umbilical cord.

I then thought to myself how should they look? Maybe Space could have nebula hair and Time a sort of clockwork face, however, I had the idea of making nature form them like every other child. I then formed a sort of ultra-powerful stasis chamber that could serve as a womb replacement and placed them in there, planning to wait for a millennium to watch them grow and get a new appearance. I then thought to myself, what should I name them when they came out again? After contemplating for a while (at least a decade) I came up with the perfect names.

Faust(Space)

The Timeless Child(Time)

*****

5 centuries later

I was still trying to figure out Emotion and Chaos. While I knew they were aspects of the universe, they weren't really part of the universe itself so I couldn't exactly mold them from its fabric like the others. Speaking of which Faust and The Timeless Child seemed to be growing well together. Based on their energy auras you could tell they would get along well enough. They both seemed to have pony figures although something was strange about TTC's figure as it couldn't seem to decide on an appearance, or gender for that matter. Faust's form was more magnificent for lack of a better word and stayed consistent. I guess they would be older siblings.

It was still just the two of them, in the incubator, and myself so I really had nothing to do. I wanted to start building the universe around me eventually, but only once their aspect watchers were all in place. That's when the loneliness really started to take its toll. I knew I'd have Faust and TTC, but that was still another 5 centuries away, which admittedly doesn't feel like much to a god's sense of Time, but it still felt like it would be a long time.

I then had a thought. It would start out sad, but would end as a wonderous beauty. I began by holding onto that feeling of loneliness, careful to not let it overtake me, and slowly pulled it out of myself in physical form. It looked both similar, but different to what Faust and TTC looked like in their purest base form. It was almost shimmering, like it already had life, but I knew it wasn't finished. Making it a minor god in this state would be purely of loneliness so I called upon my memories. In the past half a millennia I had felt many things ranging from anger to joy and made sure I could implement any new emotions I found while it was growing. I opened my eyes and found she was different in not just different from her siblings in aspects of look but growth as she had already grown into a young filly. I had the other two for 500 years now, but I'd never gotten a chance to properly hold them as a father. I then started pouring one more overwhelming Emotion into her.

Love

I probably poured more Love into her than any other Emotion, but her growth wasn't done quite yet so for her safety I put her in another incubator tank. Luckily, since she'd already grown, she would only have to stay in there another 5 centuries and come out probably with the twins.

I looked upon my children and smiled even brighter when I got to Emotion or as I had decided was a fitting name...

Amore, my little princess

3 centuries later

Chaos was proving to be difficult. How do you create or even name someone so Discordant! It seemed to leave me irritated, since I had Chaos Energy literally within my veins!

"You know what," I said, "I didn't want to have to do it, but this is literally the only way I can see myself create him"

I then honed my Chaos Energy and opened a small tear in the fabric of the universe. On the other side, as I knew, was pure Void. I new it would be dangerous if I tried to bring its nonexistent fabric into our universe so I created a specially designed Incubator to contain its mass and scooped its mass out with it. Then I quickly patched the tear and made sure all 4 children of mine were ready. Finally, looking into the void, which in it of itself is dangerous, I figured out a name:
Discord

Author's Note

If you don't know, The Timeless Child is a reference to Doctor Who Series 12(the Doctor Whooves equivalent will make an appearance in this story). You don't have to worry about spoilers in this story, but if you want to know spoiler warning The Timeless Child has a connection to the Doctor although you won't get any more info from here. We all know who Faust is and if you don't, I don't think you can call yourself a Brony. This Amore is Cadance's ancestor Amore, not Cadance herself. Discord will get his arc as will everyone else.
