The Best Massage
Part 11: Skyvaria...um...WHAT?!
Previous ChapterNext ChapterRarity read the scroll for the third time it was just a single word yet what it meant had made her heart start to race.
“Is that all it says?” Spike asked seeing the look on Rarity’s face, she seemed to be glowing.
“Oh…um…yes darling.” She turned the scroll around so everyone present could see the front of it. She kept the grin she had on her lips.
“Okay…but…how?” Spike still had a look of utter confusion on her face from what just happened. As far as he knew ponies didn’t breathe fire or receive scrolls in that way. His jaw hit the floor at a realization. The word and how it had happened. “Does this mean?”
“Apparently…” Rarity had watched the wheels turning in Spike's head as he put the pieces together.
Spike’s jaw hit the floor. “I’m a…and your…”
Rarity started to giggle, she found that she wasn’t able to stop herself. Her darling Spikey-Wikey looked just too darn cute. “Uh…huh.” Her grin turned into a smile. “On both accounts darling.”
Spike’s jaw was still open as he took in a breath of air. His scaly lips curved into a smile as the realization sunk in.
Rogus patted Spike on his back and noticed that Princess Wild Rose had been standing near him with her eyes closed. Like she was lost in thought. “Princess Wild Rose? Are you okay?”
Princess Wild Rose opened her eyes and spoke a single word that was echoing through her mind. "Skyvaria." She felt her magic surge and tingle throughout her body. From the tip of her hooves out to the tips of her wings. The last thing she recalled was looking at Rogus before a swirling cloud of lavender smoke started to swirl around her alicorn form obscuring her from everyone.
Rogus was just as confused as everyone else at what was happening. The word made no sense to him.
Beams of lavender light erupted from the smoke revealing a form within the light.
Rogus felt his jaw pop when it dropped open. He could hear the collective gasps from the others. As they all stared at a different-looking Princess Wild Rose.
Princess Wild Rose shook her head and could feel that she was different. “I could hear my alicorn dream self repeating a single word and warning me of a danger that’s coming.”
Rogus just stared at Princess Wild Rose. “You look different, and you’re now a dragon…” His voice trailed off when she suddenly looked up to the sky. Rogus could see a ball of fire heading toward the group. “Not again…”
Wild Fire landed and pulled back his fire magic revealing his ash gray coat again and fire red mane and tail. "Don't play me dragon. Where is my daughter?' Wild Fire's voice echoed off the nearby buildings. "I felt her magic vanish just now."
Rogus narrowed his eyes at Princess Wild Rose's father. "Can you not see her standing beside me as clearly as I see you?"
Wild Fire could only see space and the ground beside Rogus. "No..."
"He speaks the truth darling." Rarity said.
"You side with a dragon too?"
"She sides with me," Spike spoke up not liking the look Wild Fire was giving Rarity.
Wild Fire looked from Rarity to the dragons now standing beside her in a defensive stance. "I will come back." He said summoning a ball of fire magic around him and rocketing up into the sky. A fiery tail like a comet was all that was visible until it too was out of sight.
Princess Wild Rose had watched her father, yet she wasn’t sure why he wasn’t able to see her. This could be due to this altered form. She said still feeling her new body when she felt her magic start to grow again. The word once again echoed in her mind as did the voice of her dream. When danger is near, you can change forms and be hidden until the danger leaves. “Skyvaria.” Princess Wild Rose said the word again and felt the lavender smoke surround her form again as she changed back to her alicorn form. The light faded and she shook out her mane. “Why would I want to hide? I’d rather face my father and help him.”
“Whom are you talking to darling?” Rarity asked as she listened to what Princess Wild Rose had said aloud. “While I do agree with you, you should face your father and help him.”
“I could hear my dream form speaking in my head. Where I learned of that word. Princess Wild Rose replied.
The other Rarity had watched the scene unfold keeping herself back uncertain what to do or even how to help. So this is Equestria, its magic is amazing and more of a focal point than in the human world. She thought.
Discord had watched Wild Fire fly off he’d stayed near Fluttershy and had his eagle claw ready to snap her and him out of danger at a moment’s notice. “He’s like how I used to be.” He muttered to himself.
Fluttershy had noticed Discord watching Wild Fire and saw that he had his eagle claw ready to snap. With his mastery of chaos, it meant that anything was possible and she knew the first hoof what he could do.
“This should be fun.” He said and snapped his eagle claw.
The muttering among the group stopped when they heard Discord’s eagle claw-snapping sound.
“Discord…” Fluttershy said as she watched a grin slide along his lips. “What did you do?”
“I simply snapped my eagle claw, dear Fluttershy.” Discord replied while keeping his grin.
“Discord…” Fluttershy started to say when she heard Princess Wild Rose let out a long breath.
A thought wouldn’t release its grip on her heart after seeing her father for the second time and his still burning rage for her being with Rogus. “Rogus, I’m worried that my father might go after our kids.” She said lifting her eyes at him with her head hung down.
“As far as I know, he doesn’t know about them,” Rogus replied.
Discord, Fluttershy, and the others all looked at Princess Wild Rose and Rogus and their jaws dropped open.
“You two already have kids darling?” Rarity asked, she glanced at the scroll she’d laid down on the ground beside her and placed her hoof on her stomach.
“We’ve come to call them Draconies or a singular one would be Dracony.” Princess Wild Rose revealed she smiled at Rarity when she noticed where her hoof was at. “Same as yours and Spike’s child…or children.” Her smile turned into a grin.
Rarity felt her cheeks heat up at what Princess Wild Rose had said. “Well…I um…I’d hope for one, well, for now.” Out of the corner of her eye, she spotted a smile forming on Spike’s scaly lips. “Will we get to see them?”
“Well, our son and daughter are both here hiding in Equestria,” Rogus said.
When Discord heard this his grin turned into a smile. My snap wasn’t for them, they’ll never figure out what I did. He let out a little chuckle.
Fluttershy lifted an eyebrow upon hearing Discord chuckle. “What have you done? Yes, I know you snapped your eagle claw.”
“Trust me Fluttershy.” Discord replied as he focused his mind and chaos magic as he used it to look for strange creatures, he was certain they’d have the feeling of dragon and unicorn, so they would be a unique feeling. “Ah…” He jumped up and spun in the air. “I found them.” He announced while pumping his arms in the air.
“What are you getting at Discord?” Princess Twilight Sparkle asked seeing his exaggerated gestures.
“Oh…I just know where Princess Wild Rose and Rogus kids are.”
Princess Wild Rose and Rogus both turned to Discord. “Where?” They both said at the same time.
“I simply searched for unique magic, and I knew they would both be unique being half unicorn and half dragon.”
“So are you going to tell us or torture us…” Sunset Shimmer asked and glanced over at Princess Wild Rose and Rogus. “Or them of course.”
“Please Sunset, I would never do that. I have a heart you know.” Discord said landing back on the ground and folding his arms across his chest.
“Okay fine Discord, I am sorry,” Sunset replied. “So tell us where are their kids?”
“They are part dragons after all and what do dragons love?” Discord said circling the group.
“Gems.” Spike and Rogus said at the same time.
“Exactly.” Discord said with a smile.
