Chapters Author's Note
Hey guys before you jump to conclusions. I'm still working on this book and I'll be posting new chapters weekly if I don't meet my dead line for each chapter I am truly sorry, but this series will be continued so don't worry
Chapter 1: Arrival
The sun was shining on the town of Ponyville of course there was the occasional cloud or pegasus that would fly by to move some clouds or just to relax. Unfortunately our story doesn't take place at the this friendly little town of Equestria well at least not yet. Our story takes place in an old abandoned temple well a castle so to speak.
This part of the story starts in a room with two beds. One was a queen sized bed with a stack of chapter books and a book shelf in the left corner. The other was a twin bed with the sheets that were a bit pulled off but still good with a training dummy that showed its fair share of damage.
In the first bed there was a blue drake with white outline on his scales whose spikes were in a lightning like pattern who was asleep that sometimes his body would move on its own to scratch some itch on his body. In the second bed was a red and orange dragon whose scales were in a buring like pattern with his head at the foot of the bed showing that he was up much longer than his brother. The red dragon slowly opened then with a quick stroke of his hand on the his his scales were back to their stand position, then he began to walk threw his door.
While he was in the he saw many doors two on the left, three on the right, and one at the end of the hall way. He tilted his head alittle to the right til he heard a light pop then he did so to the other direction til the same or a similar sound came out then came the the normal flexing in his wings with a quick flap as he let out a big yawn as he walked down the stairs.
"Welp time to make some breakfast for everyone" he thought tiredly.
As he walked down the stairs he looked to his right and saw many pictures of him and his family. One in particular was very special to him as he looked at it there was a griffin with an eye patch with a massive scar underneath it. This griffin had a serious face with what he could make out was a little blush as she look away from the camera she also had one wing due to the little stub on her left side. He looked at the at the middle of photo as saw three little kids next to the griffin on the right, there was a light blue dragon that looked like he was trying to readjust his glasses. In the middle of the them was a suit of fit for a young filly whose eyes were a bright yellow outlines that showed her eyes were closed as she jumpn in joy. And the far left was a really bright red dragon doing a "power" pose. Right next to him was a unicorn stallion whonjust gave a blank as he looked at the camera. He turned his head away from the picture and began walking to the kitchen.
On his way to the kitchen he walked threw the living room and saw the same unicorn from the photo sitting up sleeping with a few snores being heard.
"Man mom really must've given him a talking to about him being up late making medicine" he whispered
As he quietly stepped into the kitchen he made his way to the fridge and pulled out some eggs, milk, orange juice, and the occasional cheese for flavor. Then he went to the cabinets and grabbed a brisk, some spices, a measuring cup, pans, and plates. As he grabbed the items he turned on the stove while he putted said items on the counters and started cooking. At first ge made eggs they were sunny side up, well one was scrambled with some added salt and pepper in the mix. Then he made some pancakes, he putted six each on a plate with some syrup on them. He got orange juice and milk for the drinks of the morning three cups had orange juice while one had milk with the added flavor of whipped cream. After a few more additions and even more preparation he was finished with the meal, well meals for the morning. He putted one of the meals on a tray and headed back up the stairs, this did have anything special just the usual milke and cereal with orange juice added with some toast and eggs( sunnyside up). He went to the far room at the end of the hall and as he walked down the hallway in revealed more pictures and drawings and two finger paintings and a hoof painting, but at the sight of all this it made him give out a little chuckle and smile with nostalgia.
As he entered the room he only saw on the king sized bed was a lone griffin laying down on her belly, she was an older griffin that covered herself in the damp colored blanket. He placed the tray of food onto the table next the bed on her side, and with a quick fix of her ruffled feathers and gave her a light kiss as she smiled lightly.
"Good morning mom" he said as he walked out the room slowly closing the door.
By the time he came back in the dining room he was a bit to late as he saw the same unicorn sitting in his chair eating his food with again the same blank face on his
"Why are you eating my food dad" he said with a surprised look
" I was hungry after what your mother did to me the other night." The stallion said as he gulp in memory of the previous night.
The dragon went to say something but was hit by a hunk of metal that dropped him of his onto the ground. He looked at the one who hitted him and saw a pony made of metal, well this pony was wearing armor who was also jumping in excitement and happiness.
" YAY! YAY! We're going out on a trip to town. I'm so happy." The armored pony said with eagerness and joy in her metallic voice
"Wait what are you serious" the dragon said in shock.
"I'm afraid Alia( al-e-a) spoiled the surprise " the stallion said calmly.
"Niiice" the drake said still in shock.
All of a sudden a loud thump was heard up stairs. Everyone looked at the stairs and saw a griffin walking down holding a cup of orange juice in her left talon.
"What's all this ruckus going on here. Cant you see i was sleeping" the griffin said
"BELLA!" The stallion said as he run towards her with haste
"Nothing dad was just think about letting us go with him to the town nearby." The drake said
"I'm sorry what did you just say Nikolas." The griffin said in a serious tone
"I was thinking that they should come with me to the market, so they can make some friends, and have a few laughs, you know the latest sort of thing." The stallion said with a nervous grin
"Adam I love you, but I can't agree with this, who knows what could happen while they're out there." Bella said looking at the dragon and armored pony
"Hey they'll have me to keep them safe and nothing more, I mean come on what's the worst that can happen?" Adam suggested rolling his eyes in thought
" OH, gee I don't know there could be dragon hunters, poachers, theives, and most of all pick pocketers." Bella said gritting her teeth at the thought.
"But we can't just keep them here, they need to go out there and make some friends and who knows maybe find some one that can spend their life with like did with you." Adam pointed out to his wife.
Bella gave a long but deep sigh and nodded at her husband's point
"Ugh, fine I guess that go to with you, but promise me you'll keep an on little Alia please she's been through a lot." Bella asked Adam with a worry in her voice
"You know I'll always watch over our children Bella." Adam said while giving the griffin a loving kiss on the lips
"I know and that's why I fell for you and agreed to take care of them and you." Bella said as she returned the kiss.
Nikolas and Alia gagged at the sight of their parents love making and to them it was gross.
"NOW, we're off, let's go kids let's go sell so of my potions and some of your moms weapons and tools." Adam said as he walking to the door with his kids and wife following him.
Bella stopped at the door while she still drinking her orange juice, and looked at them looked at the hooking up the wagon to Adam's back.
" I hope I won't regret them going out there." Bella said as she smiled at them in the distance hearing them singing a non catchy toon on their way to town.
"Don't worry mom they'll be fine." Someone said behind her back
Bella jumped in surprise as she turned around and saw her other dragon son Christian drinking some milk and eating breakfast.
"And as for you, you need to get started on your chores mister." Bella said as she pointed to the chore wall to with his name on it.
"Ah buck me." Christian murmured in defeat.back at Ponyville trian station
Cherry blossom(Chrysalis) got off the trian, so she can do the mission she was given to by the goddess. She looked at the Station in awe as she thought on how long was she in stone. As shebwas walking her mind began to wonder on the mission and who she was looking for, then like a light bulb it clicked. She grabbed the note that was with the bag of bits given tonher by the goddess and began to read it in her mind
dear Cherry blossom. I know your wondering on who you will be looking for sadly i cant tell you due to my lack of mana right now, but i will say this he is in the town your currently in called Ponyville so dont fret, i gave some bits so you can go there. Senserly the goddess. P.S look in the market district.
Cherry gave a short sigh as she should've suspected that, but it'll have to do. She was now outside and the fact that her gapped open al the way down to the floor was no surprise at what she was seeing.
"Well I better start looking for him." She said with a bit of gustoe.to be continued
Chapter 2: introductions.pt1
Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter. Chapter 2: introductions. Part 2
It been at least a few hours sense Nikolas met Red Lance, well Lucy for short, but nonetheless they've been looking for her brother for her brother for the past 3 to 4 hours now.
"Man it's been hours now, how long do we have to keep looking for. huh?" Nikolas said with a bit of boredom in his voice.
Lucy looked at Nikolas for a bit with a bit of concern. "You know we don't have to look for much longer, but we can still look around the market and look at things while we look for him." Lucy said with her hoof to the side with a nervous smile.
Nikolas raised and eyebrow at the statement with a finger under his chin. "Altight I guess u can look around for a bit sense this is my first time being here so sure." He said with alittle shrug.
While they were looking around the market Nikolas was looking at swords, armor, and tools, while Lucy was food, jewelry, and hair die for some reason." Hey check this out." Nikolas said while holding a shiny sharp sword. Lucy let out alittle giggle and motioned him to move on.
Lucy was looking at a silver necklace with three gems in the middle, it was a beautiful necklace to say the least, but it just didn't suit her taste of jewelry. She began to slowly started to look at Nikolas body, his body looked different then other dragons, he standing on his hind leg walking using his claws to hold and grab things, well of course all dragons did that, but the only thing different was the air around him it was so different it was like a predator stalking his prey, so why was he acting so different then what his "energy" was different and she didn't know why, but then she looked at his features on his body, he was skinny heck you can't even tell if he had muscles on his arms or anywhere for that matter.
"Hey Nikolas um may I ask why do you look so different from other dragons?" She said while gesturing to his whole body.
Nikolas tilted his head to the side in confusion. "Well my mom says I'm you know different from other dragons, but I'm actually a subspecies of dragon." He said with his index finger in the sky.
Lucy was dumbfounded about that.," A subspecies of dragon?" She said with a raised eyebrow.
"Yep." Nikolas said with a joyful smile
Lucy was dumbfounded at the answer he just gave, but she somehow knew that if she keeps asking questions he might just give the same answer. She then came up with an idea. "Hey Nikolas why don't we go get something to eat, cause I'm famished." She said with a smile.
Nikolas gave it some thought. "Sure I guess I can eat." He said with a slight shrug.
They went to a local restaurant which wasn't bad, but it was decent. They walked in and the inside was themed to look like some sort of tavern of a bar for so it would seem, but it was cool to look at to say the least.
They sat at a booth that had the napkins in between the ketchup and mustard. The menus had some odd options that was fit for a dragon and a pony on different sides of the menu dragon on one side pony on the other.
Nikolas looked at the menu and let's just say he was a bit disappointed at the options then he looked at Lucy who was just looking at the menu with no problems. He was alittle shock at her calmness. "Hey um why did you bring me here for and before you ask I know it wasn't to get food be cause I noticed your look on your face." He said while he looked at the menu with eyes eyes on her.
Lucy looked at him with her eyes as wide as a record disc." Wh-What makes you say that." She said as she putted the menu down.
"Well for starters when I mentioned your brother earlier you looked alittle sad, and you were eager to learn about my species which means that you're afraid of your brother." Nikolas said as he ordered his food. "I'll have the gem and fish salad." As he gave the Manu to the waitor who nodded and walked away.
Lucy grimaced at the fact that he was right about her being afraid of her brother, but she wasn't scared of him specifically just the fact the she considered herself as a burden and he figured out that as well because of his tone of voice.
"He thinks I'm a little girl and never let's me be myself at all. He always makes the "best" decisions for me." Lucy said droping her head at the table.
Nikolas received his food from the waitor and began to eat his food as he looked at his friend with a little concern. "Well he should just let you go and be your own mare and not controll your life." He said with a crunch of his food.
Lucy kept looking at the table in shame and guilt of her fears and mistakes.
Nikolas saw that she was in discomfort and putted his hand over her hoof to comfort her." He doesn't need to control you and I think that you should tell him that." He stated as patted her head. She looked at him as slowly smiled at the dragon in front of her. Then to speak of the devil a pegasus who looked like Red Lance but he was a stallion with golden mane and golden eyes to match who stopped at the table infront of them. He looked at his sister who coward in his presence, then he looked at the dragon who was still eating his salad.
"So this is what you've been doing. Eating with a dragon." He said looking at his sister with eyes of fury and disappointment.
"He's-he's not like the ones wh-" she was cut off when her brother who grabbed her face to examine her and he saw the cuts, bruises, and the scares that healed. Her brother looked at the dragon and back at his sister. "Did he do this to you. DID HE DO THIS." He shouted in anger and worry.
Lucy looked down in defeat and didn't answer him. Her brother scrunched his face and looked at the dragon in full on anger, the drake in question quickly stood up with his hand raised in a sign to show that he ment no harm. "Now now listen I know how this looks but I did do anything to-." He cutoff due to him being punched in the face by the stallion.
outside the restaurant
Cherry was outside waiting for Golden to get his sister. Then out of nowhere she saw Golden and what seemed to look like a dragon in a bear hug on the ground fighting. She then looked to her left and saw a pegasus who looked like Golden but with red and purple mane. She walked up to the mare and was about to get her attention but. "You son of a bitch!" Said the stallion straggling the dragon.
The dragon was having his head flung around like a flail. "I already told you I didn't do anything to you sister." The dragon said kicking his opponent off him. He quickly got to his feet then was put in a choke hold by the pony around his neck. The stallion was holding on the dragons neck with great prejudice. "Shut you bastard." Said the pegasus.
"GOLDEN ARROW STOP!" A voice shouted
Both the dragon and the pony looked to see where the noise came from only to see it was his sister Red Lance who was covering her mouth from her sudden out burst. Nikolas's eyes became wide as dinner plates at the thing she just said. "Golden Arrow..... wait a minute this is her brother." Nikolas though to himself while he being choked, but was slowly released due to his opponent letting go of him.
"He's my friend Golden he didn't do anything to me." Red Lance said walking up to Nikolas who was taking deep breathes of air.
Golden dusted off his shoulders and walked to a nearby outside table and sat down. "Then due explain." Golden said bring his hooves together on the table. Cherry was in shock at what just happened and followed them to the same table Golden was at.
after Red Lance explained what happend
"So let me get this straight you found my sister in an alley and decided that you should help her find me." Golden said crossing his hooves.
Nikolas and Lucy looked at each other then back at Golden. "Yep." The two said in unison.
Golden face hooved himself. "Anyway I would like you to meet Cherry Blossom." He said gesturing to the mare sipping her tea.
Cherry almost choked on her tea from the sight of everyone staring at her, so she took a deep breath, putted her tea on the table and kept her composure. "Hello my name is Cherry Blossom and it's a pleasure to meet your acquaintance." She said holding her hoof out.
Nikolas didn't hesitate to grab her hoof and shake it furiously. "Wells it's nice to meet you Cherry and my name is Nikolas knight." He said while he stopped shaking her hoof.
Cherry looked at him dumbfounded for a few seconds at the fact that Nikolas was the one she was looking for and that he was surprisingly young for a reincarnation of a deity. "Hmm I expected you to be older." She said outloud.
"What?" Nikolas said with a raised eye brow in confusion.
Cherries eyes shot wide for a second. "OH um just a personal matter." She said waving her hoof dismissively.
Everyone just shrugged it off and they all started talking about many things.
off in the distance on a hill
Three dragons were on a hill. Two of them were just doing small chatter. The third dragon was watching a certain drake in the nearby town.
The dragon smiled widely. "The prince lives." He said while he began to laugh in a insane matter.

prologue: as the years pass
Canterlot the city of which the many would only dream of living in their or here so to speak. This place was very known by the many ponies, griffins and etc. But whatmany ponies didn't know is that there was the the cold stone remains of the most evil and notorious villains of Equestria who were kept preserved in their stone prison. Queen Chrysalis former monarch of the changlings, Cozy Glow who was only just a mere filly who sought for power, and the most dangerous of all the three was the mad centaur conquer Tirek who was able to suck the power out of anything or anypony.
The nights was cold, warm but cold in a way atleast for some it was just a normal night for others it was just to hot, but for one specific changling Queen trapped in stone it was torture. She hated the weather it was boring it was hot it it was to normal
"I need to get out of here" Chrysalis thought to her In a fit of anger.
As she was trying her best to move she could feel something slowly moving up on her not in a inappropriate way but In way the was either fear, doubt, and anger. It felt like it was leaving or in a more real and actual sense it was being sucked out of her
"Tirek you dare try to suck out my magic to free yourself I'll kill you" Chrysalis accused.
But it wasn't Tirek it felt to warm to be him. This feeling was something else, but could this feeling be could it be the stone breaking or could be the orb of light shinning in front of her. Then she was involved in a holy and warm light that was so relaxing it felt like a fire place in the middle of winter.
"Hello Chrysalis" The voice said
"Who are you speak your name" Chrysalis demanded
"Don't be afraid my child I'm here to save you from this prison" The voice said warmly
"Free me BAH save your breath and magic I don't need anyone's help"
"Then let me set you free then" The voice said
All of a sudden Chrysalis was covered in a bright and orange light. She could feel and hear the stone breaking as she was enveloped
"What is the sorcery. What are you doing to me" Chrysalis said with a bit of fear in her voice
"What I'm doing is setting you free, but not as hateful or vengeful as you are now, but with a new body you will be able to feel the feelings of ponies, you will be able to feel everything you always wanted" The voice said
"Yo-you can't do this I'm a Changling Queen" Chrysalis said in fear and terror
"Not any more your not your new name will be Cherry blossom" said the voice
"No" Chrysalis said in fear
As soon as it happened it was all over. Chrysalis looked her self in pure disgust she had no holes in her hooves no black chitin nore did she have her old two toned voice. Instead she was covered in fur with the color of navy blue and maroon eyes with the mane and body type of one of the princess as a mere teenager her mane was in a cherry pink color. Her voice was no longer of a changling she looked and her hips and saw a cutie mark with a cherry three and a flower with a pen in the center.
"What have you done to me!"she said with her new voice
" I simply gave you a new chance at life Chrysalis. You've been suffering from the curse that was placed one you so many years ago. I decided to give you the thing you so longed for" The voice said with loving tone
"This body was yours also long ago before the curse was placed on you. I'm surprised that didn't remember your own name" the voice said
Chrysalis looked at herself again she placed a hoof on her chest and felt something she thought she could only feel in th dream. Thump bump thump bump. Her eye began to show tears of joy and happiness as she fell to her knees and stared to cry in pure happiness.
"I-it's been so so long that I have forgotten " she said with a sniff
"Thank you thank you for this second chance" Cherry blossom said through her tears
"You are very well Cherry. It just warms my everlasting heart to see you happy. Alas I must tell that you still have your changeling powers as thanks for your resolve and heart for me so long ago" the voice said with a hint of joy behind it.
Cherry blossom look at the orb with confusion of what it was talking about, but at the same the voice sound familiar to her. She thought to her self of where she heard the voice.
" Do need to tell that there are many things in the world you don't understand, but I will tell you this I'm the goddess of ponies the very same goddess you worshipped with your mother who was one of my many favorite followers" the voice said
Cherrys mind clicked as a surge of old memories came back to her like a meteor strike. She began to slowly cry due to memories of her mother, father, and four siblings came running back to her all at once.
"Why are you helping me and why do you care of what happened to me?" Cherry said with a sad and confused look on her face
"I did it for you so you can live your life as you once did before, and also to help my friend who reincarnated as a dragon, but I can not help him due to his magic not being as strong as it once was" the voice said I a worried tone.
"What is woyour friends name might I ask so it will easy to help you watch over him" Cherry said in a assured tone in her voice
"His name nagfigeir( nag-fig-ir)dragner and he is the dragon god, but gose by the name Nikolas alumni Knight" the voice said in a commanding.
"Watch him well and know him well" the voice said in an echo as he faded away
"Well I guess I better start looking then" Cherry said as she started walking towards the nearest station while holding a note and a bag of bits given to her by the goddess.
