MLP:FiM; Turn back time

It’s been thirty moons since Midnight and I had managed to escape the Nightmare holding the princess of the Moon. We saw the dark figure try to enter the newest bearer of magic but we managed to stop it from doing so before disappearing into the woods outside. It didn't take long for us to find a cave that was under a tree nearby, where we remained until the next night where we moved back in but we were cautious about the castle so we decided to make it a temporary base of operations. It wasn't really known that we were here by anypony but we didn't mind and it certainly helped. Over the next few days we looked around the castle and the surrounding forest to see if anything was new since our last time in Equestria from what we remember, as we remembered the first time we picked up a weapon to fight with.

Flashback…

Midnight and I were walking around the demon’s armory when certain weapons caught our interest. Midnight chose a scythe while I chose a sickle sword or at least so we thought… after we showed the demon who saved us what we chose he asked “are you sure?” We didn't know what we were doing and answered in a confident yes. Oh how naive we were, the ones that caught our eyes were known as the Soul Scythe and the Hellflame Sickle and both of us wielded them proficiently and shockingly so. After finding our way out through a random portal and ending up outside the barrier of Equestria which thankfully the demon followed us through with him thanking us for helping him get back here and we earned the right to give ourselves the names that feel right to us. She chose Midnight Nova and the nickname Midnight Reaper which ended up becoming her title. I chose Fallen Ember and my nickname was Fallen Wrath which turned into my title Wrath of the Fallen. We went around the badlands closing Rifts to Tartarus and killing the demons that were already through which were mostly Imps anyways. Otherwise worse demons would come through and kill so we are constantly traveling with no rest thanks to a spell that keeps us awake as we learned under the demon that made the original gate over five thousand years ago. He trained us after finding us in tartarus and he hasn't been let down since he had a great time teaching us and made sure that we formed a devastating duo who could help his friends stop a few old threats from coming back.

Now…

We made a call for help and a pony answered a few days later coming in from Ponyville it was Midnight's cousin Trixie. Though Midnight had a headache for a bit. “You ok?” I asked her as she smiled at me with a genuine one.

“Yes I’m fine, I had just remembered a lot of my past thanks to my cousin” she said, shocking Trixie but I was happy for her.

We managed to convince Trixie to let us possess her and it was well worth it in the end. Due to us having been banished to Tartarus, we didn't need to use our bodies to get a job done as we were only souls. As the process finished we turned into what we were made out of, which was fire for me along with shadows for Midnight, apparently Midnight’s a natural dark mage and I'm an elemental from what we have gathered for our memories. After seeping through Trixies skin we settled in different areas of her body while we watched and waited. We learned pretty fast that a lot had changed from what we remember, which was barely anything sadly, and Trixie was one of Celestia’s students but she left to be a showmare apparently. After getting out of the forest Trixie encountered a unicorn named Maroon Ripple.“Hey Trixie, how are you doing? And why did you go into the Everfree?” she asked.

“Oh I have some family in there and they needed some help with something that I was nearby for, your second question and I'm doing good.” I said, worried that she would catch on but she seemed to buy it. After that she showed me around Ponyville with help from her friends.

The few days go by and we learn more about Maroon and her friends. The group, even us having Trixie help her new friends encourage Maroon to go with her feelings, which actually worked out as after Fluttershy told off a dragon and they got back she confessed. The group noticed that Maroon was really nervous but they proposed that maybe Fluttershy felt the same, so right then and there just popped out of her mouth fully ready for rejection when she was suddenly kissed by Fluttershy. It caught a lot of ponies off guard but they were ultimately happy for them and we could tell that the love between them was genuine.

Trixie, Applejack, Rarity and us, though we are inside Trixies body just hanging there, were caught up in a storm when the latter two started arguing about their sleeping habits. Trixie was trying to calm them down but it wasn't working all that well. Maroon opened her door and invited them inside although she had no experience holding a slumber party, Trixie helped her out with what she didn’t know about them and ultimately they had a really fun time including us but Trixie noticed that we were cautious of Maroon she didn't know why so she used that night to talk to us in her mind asking us “why are you both so apprehensive of of Maroon?”

I told her “Maroon just feels off for some reason. We don't know why but it's almost as if something bad might happen thanks to her. Its not just Maroon it’s her friends as well.”

“Really like what?” this time Midnight answered,

“This is not her destiny as she knows it, she just thinks it is when it’s not. Her true destiny will come and she will know what it truly is when everything fall apart”
