Previous ChapterANARCH: Anarchy Rising…..
Chapter 1: The Arrival
In the midst of the day, Equestria was preparing for the night to come. Celestia, though, had a strange feeling of anxiety. She kept sending messages to Twilight to see if she was okay. No one knew why she so anxious, not even celestia herself was. The only person who seemed to know was Luna; she had a worried look in her eyes. Celestia had approached Luna with a look of suspicion. “What is wrong dear sister”, Celestia asked Luna with a hint of anger in her voice, feeling that Luna was hiding something. “Oh nothing, nothing at all dear sister”, Luna said in a hurry. Celestia knew by the way her sister said the phrase that something was definitely wrong. "Tell me" Celestia said. "What is wrong? Something is out of order, I know from the look on your face, a look of pure fear”, Celestia stated in a firm tone. Luna sighed, and then said regretfully, “Remember when you banished the young colt that you accused of dealing with discord for his escape to the dark side of the moon 1000 years ago, who was our little brother, 500 years after you banished me to the moon”. Celestia's face flushed. She then answered in a whisper, “Yes, yes I do remember, I can still see the look on his poor face, separated from his family and friends, and the truth is it wasn’t him, but none of the elite guards could find him innocent. My regrets of that still haunt me, still haunt me in my dreams."
“He had approached me on the moon the day you sent him there, with the darkest look shadowing over his face, his coat wasn’t black anymore but had turned a dark grey, his mane had been torn from his face from impact, one half of his face was burned from impact also, it had turned out the elite guards had rigged the cannon to burn him from their belief of him dealing with discord, he kept saying I will return, I will come back, I will cause redemption, I will cause anarchy, that was also the day he had mysteriously got a cutie mark, the symbol of anarchy, his eyes like bloodstained mirrors, he had the eyes of Mirror. Mirror became part of him, hidden inside his soul, when he was in my presence on the moon, he was in Mirror form, Mirror had died inside him, but our little brother had harvested his powers, our little brother became Mirror. But not one bent on supreme monarchy, one bent on 3 things, revenge, redemption, and anarchy”
. At that very moment, celestia’s face had turned the palest white Luna had ever seen. Celestia’s eyes widened while her pupils shrunk to pinheads. As soon as Luna saw her sister’s eyes she understood, she knew what she meant, her eyes widened the same as her sisters did. “No, that is not possible, how can he have the power to make it back here!?” Luna screamed. “It’s not how he will plan to do it, it’s that how did he do it. Luna my dear sister, look behind you!” celestia had said with deep fear. Both Luna and celestia’s eyes grew even larger, Luna had slowly turned around and in directly in the moonlight, facing the moon casting a silhouette perfectly in front of the moon, was him, the angel of anarchy was upon them, the once boy turned into a monstrosity, it was him, Mirrors reincarnation, Anarch, and he was right in front of them behind the castle main window.
Chapter 2: The Reunion and the Redemption
“Hello sisters, or should I say monsters in my defense” anarch said in a deep, booming voice as the glass of the main window shattered. “I had really missed equestria, since I was banished to the dark side of the moon for over 1,000 years away from my friends and family, and also nearly killed by the nightmare form of Luna”, Anarch said with intense rage. “I really thought you cared about me, that I could become a prince or god of something with your help, but no, I had became a prince of something without you and our sister, I had become the god of anarchy, my eternal hatred for what you did fueled me to the point if insanity, you had taken everything away from me, I had a family, but they have forgotten about me, the memorial my wife had made me hasn’t been cleaned or visited in years, she stopped looking at it, it was too painful for her”, Anarch said with pain in his voice. “Brother, I am sorry, please forgive me I was clueless then” Celestia pleaded. “SHUT UP, SHUT UP, SHUT UP, SHUT UP, THEY ARE LIES, WHAT YOU SAY ARE LIES, ALL LIES!!!!” Anarch screamed. “Beware sisters, you have not much time left now because I have returned, your throne and empire is at risk” Anarch then shot off into the night, leaving the two princesses in shock and awe.
Chapter 3: the secret sin
In the dead of night, a looming shadow passed over the land. It was the shadow of Anarch. He had a troubled look in his hidden eyes, “Where is she, where is she, WHERE THE HELL IS SHE!?!” He screamed, unknowingly flying past the home of rainbow dash. From the screams of anarch, she awoke with a shriek, “WHO WAS THAT?” she yelled. Rainbow dash looked to her right, just in time to faintly see Anarch blasting through the sound barrier. Following the explosion was a very short flash of blinding light. Within seconds Rainbow darted off after him, without knowing the danger she was approaching. Anarch, now realizing he is being followed, hears her questioning yells, “Who are you?” Rainbow Dash loudly asked from far behind Anarch. When he notices her questions, he impossibly stops immediately sending a shock-wave of air flying past him. Swinging his hoof around, he grabs rainbow dash by the neck and throws her straight to the ground with a booming crash. With a loud cry of pain, “AHHHHHHHH MY LEG, I THINK IT IS BROKEN!!!!” rainbow dash screamed. Anarch, with sympathy for the pathetic being that had a fiery passion, floated down, a fearful glare in what seemed to be the eyes of anarch, stared her down. Looking in rainbow dashes eyes, he spoke softly, “What do you have to say…..before you black out? I want you to remember this, so there won’t be anymore, what you call, disturbances”. With a look of pure fear in her eyes, rainbow dash croaked with tears, “What are you, why are you….?” Before she could finish Rainbow Dash fainted. Hearing the yells of her friends and some royal guards, with Celestia and Luna, Anarch rushed off into the night sky. Looking up, celestia, Luna, and the mane 6 saw his terrifying image; his dark wings expanding wider than celestial's wings could ever reach. Suddenly, hearing the moan of an injured Rainbow Dash they all rushed to her aid. As Anarch was flying to his destination, something passed through his mind, “No, derpy, I must find her, they will take her, celestia knows about her, I must find her”, Anarch whispered. Holding a picture of Derpy Whooves and her daughter, Dinky Whooves, he whispered to himself, “But dinky can never know, she is too young." "No, it is too late now to keep secrets, she must know, but I will regret it, Dinky, Derpy, I am coming, don’t worry”. He blasted through the sound barrier towards Cloudsdale, where his deepest secrets slept.
Chapter 4: The Return of Love (part 1)
As Cloudsdale approached in the horizon of the night, Anarch became more and more worried that celestia had gotten to her first. When he reached Derpy’s house, he knocked on the door in a strange way. Normally whoever would knock on derpy’s door would hear her screaming, “I will get it Dinky!”, and she would answer, but this time, from the way anarch knocked on her door, the way they used to do before he was banned to the moon, she was silent. The door creaked open to a teary eyed Derpy, “Is it really you? Please in the name of Celestia don’t let this be a joke”, she squeaked. As their faces met, Derpy’s eyes widened, they had gone from cross eyed to the most straight, and perfectly aligned they had ever been since the accident, since they first met. “Ditzy, it’s been a while”, Anarch said in a joking voice. Immediately Derpy ran towards him, hugging him and not letting him go for a few minutes, she cried, “You can’t imagine… you can’t imagine how long I've missed you”. “I have been missing you since the day I was first sent to the moon Ditzy, a hole in my heart is filled now, I finally was able to see you again, and this time, I’m staying”, Anarch said softly.
Chapter 4: The Return of Love (part 2)
Both Derpy and Anarch sat down; it has been 1000 years since they have seen each other, 1000 years since they were married in secret. After hours of catching up with each other lives, Derpy had asked, “Would you like to see dinky, Anarch? She is your daughter after all”. Anarch was silent for a moment, then said, “Ditzy, yes I would, but let me finish something, there is something I need to show you”. After saying that he removed his mask, it revealed a huge portion of his face was seriously burned. Derpy gasped at the sight, “What happened to you, just wait, WHAT!” Derpy screamed. “A miscalculation in the launch caused a nearly fatal injury on me, but I’m okay, I’ve been meaning to heal it, but I haven’t had the time yet, I think the time is now”, Anarch said softly. His horn started to glow, and the scars on his face started to heal. His skin started to regenerate. After the spell finished he looked like he was young again, even so with his inexplicable age. His hair was black and white, eyes red as rubies, and a pitch black body darker than nightmare moon herself. “That’s better”, anarch sighed. “Let’s go see dinky anarch, let’s not keep her waiting”, Derpy said softly.
Both anarch and derpy reach up to the front of the door, Derpy’s eyes start to water while she opens the door “Here she is, this is Dinky” Derpy whispered. Anarch’s eyes widened at the sight of his daughter, who he hasn’t seen for over 1000 years, who is now right in front of him. A single tear escaped his eyes and slowly trickled down his face. Dinky, finally waking up, rubbed her eyes and froze at that very moment; she was giving Anarch a blank stare, then she turned to Derpy with a look of confusion, “Mommy, who is the pony at the door?”, she asks with curiosity. Anarch, slowly but firmly, walked up to Dinky and bent down. He was stood in front of Dinky and smiled, then calmly said, “Hello Dinky, it’s been a long time” those very words made anarch shiver, thinking how cruel it was, finally saying hi to your own daughter for the first time after never spending time with her for 1000 years from being banished. How cruel It would be, to yourself, and to the daughter. Derpy then said softly to dinky, and almost in a whisper said “Dinky, this pony that stands before you, it may be a shock to you, believe me it was a shock when I saw him earlier *sigh* Dinky, this is your father”. Dinky, with an unimaginable look of surprise, turned to Anarch; she had a look of disbelief on her face. Dinky, with curiosity, asked her mother, “Mommy, I thought you told me daddy died before I was born, he can’t be here if he is dead.” Derpy answered her question quietly, whispering it in her little ear, the entire story was told to her, and she was never to speak of this, or Anarch, for her father may be banished again. Dinky, suddenly gaining all this overwhelming information, stood up with tears in her eyes, ran straight towards Anarch, and hugged him, Dinky understood all the pain Anarch had been through, to be with Derpy and her, she understood, it made Anarch’s heart explode with joy.
Chapter 5: Old Enemies………
“I am ashamed that I have to be this desperate for help, but he is the only person who knows our little brother better than me, which makes me even more ashamed”, Celestia stated. Celestia, Luna, and the main 6 approached the tomb statue of Discord, the look of chaos still in his stone eyes. Twilight, with a tone of rebellion, stated to Celestia, “I don’t think this will be a good idea. What if he tries to take Equestria over again?” Celestia didn’t answer, she was still horrified that the fact her little brother, who she cared and loved for, and who she betrayed, has returned with powers that outmatch hers and Luna’s combined. Powers that even out match the elements of harmony. She was so desperate to stop Anarch that she would ask her mortal enemy, Discord, for help in a time of need. Celestia’s horn started to glow, and discord, still a stone statue, started to speak. “Well, well, well, what do we have here, oh my, the great Princess Celestia. What are you doing here at what seems to be my grave?”
“Discord, even so I have turned you to stone, twice, I ask of help at a time of need, if you accept, you may be set free, but with some rules in mind”, Celestia said.
“What makes you think I would I want to help you. And what is this 'need' you have in mind” Discord said asked with a bored tone.
“The one I speak of, is a familiar sight to you. A pony who you, and many people from the ages of my first rule know, Anarch.” Celestia said. Discord was silent.
Chapter 6: The First Friend
Discord, with fear in his voice, said, “No, no, no it can’t be, when you asked the question, I had a slight fear you would say that. No it can’t be true, I did have my past brushes with him. He had a potential of chaos within him more powerful than mine, but it was safely kept locked tight inside him. Only a tragic moment so horrible could awaken it, Celestia, what have you done?”
“Something I regret to this day, Discord. He was banished to the dark side of the moon for all of eternity, never to face the sun, never to be reminded of mother nor father. For 1000 years he stayed there, Luna in Nightmare Moon form and in normal form met him, he had harvested the powers of Mirror, who had tried to take over his soul. But a darker, more evil force of anarchy, that he chose to make. That was his personality himself, when he had killed Mirror, he had become more powerful than both me and Luna combined, even more than the elements of harmony” Celestia said with guilt.
The mane 6 behind her stared, shocked to the point of feinting. Rainbow Dash’s confrontation with Anarch got her seriously injured. Everypony was speechless, not uttering a single word since they found Rainbow Dash and saw Anarch himself in mirror form.
“Celestia, you fool, I will help, even though there are rules, oh how I hate rules, but it doesn’t matter, Anarch must be stopped, I sense he still hasn’t awoken some of his powers, his most deadly ones” Discord said firmly. Celestia’s horn grew brighter and Discord broke out of his stone prison, for once in all of Equestrian history, Discord actually was acting and looked serious. He hasn’t been like that since the chaos origin incident, which is never spoken about by anyone anymore, it’s too awkward and painful to talk about near both Discord and Celestia.
They all knew, Discord wasn’t joking this time. As a sudden surprise to Celestia, and also a factor to her enragement she was struggling to hold in, an elite guard had sneaked behind her and said “Princess Celestia, I am required to inform you that the Elite Guard Council had agreed and put into action a direct assault on Anarch and any relative, or what you say relative, in his name. The team should be arriving in his location any minute now”. Celestia, now hearing those words, could not hold in her rage any longer from the ridiculous idea the elite guards were putting into action. She was so enraged that she completely broke character. “YOU DID WHAT?! ARE YOU INSANE?! IF YOU TRY TO ATTACK HIS FAMILY HE WILL RIP THE ATTACKERS TO SHREDS. HE WILL THEN HUNT YOU DOWN AND SLOWLY KILL ALL YOUR FAMILY MEMBERS ONE BY ONE, JUST FOR HIS AMUESMENT. YOU FOOLS, YOU SHOULD ALL BE SENT TO THE MOON FOR SUCH AN IDIOTIC IDEA!” Celestia screamed, her wings spread as she furiously flew into the air heading straight for the elite guard council room. Leaving everyone, especially Twilight, with a look of shock on their faces. Discord shook his head and said “You elite guards are complete idiots.”
Chapter 7: The Beginning of the End
As anarch sat next to dinky, getting to know each other, both derpy and anarch heard someone smash the door open, “Anarch! We know you are in here! You and what your so called family come on out, if you cooperate we won’t hurt you and your family……much”, an elite guard said. Another guard smashed through the window, grabbing both Derpy and Dinky by the neck, nearly suffocating them. Slowly the guard holding Derpy and Dinky walked downstairs. Each step made Anarch’s eyes glowed more and more red the more they continued. When they were finally outside, Anarch eyes were completely glowing neon red, slowly saying a chant in an eerie whispering voice, “Once pure, once innocent, once normal.” after hearing Anarch say that chant many times, they asked, “Who are you talking about?”, Derpy answered, “If I were you, I would be running right about now, when he finishes that chant, let’s just say, there will be so many pieces of you left, it would take years to put you back together.” Anarch, with a loud booming voice yelled including the chant, “Once pure, once innocent, once normal…….. What was once doesn’t matter anymore, it’s now you should be scared, before hope is shattered, like a broken…… mirror.”
Suddenly, BOOM, an explosion of pure darkness shrouded around Anarch, when it cleared, Anarch wasn’t there anymore, only what looked like a creature of pure darkness laid there, what seemed to have ancient bandages wrapping his entire body. Pure black, dragon like wings spread apart like a tree being split in half, his eyes pure white with a black outline around it, a creepy stitched smile on his face, two wrapped appendages that look like extra arms extend from his body, 3 black claws at each tip of the two arms, his hooves like sharp daggers in the ground, his tail like a long flexible blade, his horn black as night curved like a blade on his head, the guards faces turned white at the sight, Anarch was in mirror form, something that can end civilizations In a matter of minutes, they were shivering from the horrifying creature’s presence. “LET THEM GO”, the creature screeched, lunging forward making a slicing sound while passing a guard, the other guards looked straight into the helpless guard’s eyes, they rolled back, and the single guard split into two, its intestine leaking from its severed halves. Then one of the creature’s long robe like arms grabbed the guard holding both Dinky and Derpy. The guard abandoning its grasp on the two ponies. The creatures arm brought the guard face to face with him, even with its mouth stitched, the mouth started to open showing millions of razor sharp teeth and slowly consumed the guard held in the creatures grasp. The guard being slowly ripped apart like he was being shoved in a wood chipper, blood and small chunks of him flying everywhere, making one of the last three guards puke at the sight. The creature slowly turned its head towards the remaining guards. They all dropped their weapons and flew away, their faces with expressions of horror. With a cloud of black smoke, the creature turned back into Anarch, having much of anarch’s energy drained from his body, he fainted when the smoke cleared. Derpy smirked and said “Now, that’s my husband I know and love.” She brushed off the dirt and had Dinky jump into her mail bag, bending over anarch, she picked him up by the collar and dragged him back inside her home.
