Ballad of Serenity

here's where things get.... Complicated

In the beginning, there was darkness.

An eternal bleak void in which life could not be sustained.

Then came the celestial siblings. Brother Gaia and Sister Faust.

they floated alone in the abyss, pondering for almost an eternity. conversing with each other in an ancient long forgotten dialect no-one truly knows about. after a while, the siblings became bored with a meaningless abyss. they began to create meaning. first, they formed the stars, small beacons of light, to guide themselves from one side of this new plane of existence to the other. Then they created the planets.

small planets to begin with. but then as each planet grew and grew with the quick passage of time, they placed down different markers. markers of great significance. then, They created life.

Life in itself is a mystery. Lots of questions have been asked, such as "Where did we come from?" and "why are we here?"

the answers to those questions have eluded man kind for eons, and will continue to do so. However, Ponies are content with the answers of "Fucked if I know" and "fucked if i care" Wise words to live by.

but thats not why I'm delving into the history of Equus...

The elements had been located, yeah sure... all but one. Celestia was intent on making me their coveted Sixth Ranger... So to speak. I looked to Scootaloo for a moment as she Picked up her top. "That was a bad Idea Cris..."

It had been two weeks since the magic Drain, Scootaloo was gathering up her clothes, with a nervous smile.

I raised an eyebrow. "I wasn't that bad was I?" She simply giggled and went red in the face. struggling to find her words, I held up a pair of lacy panties. "I still never would believe you'd be one for lace, Scoots"

She gave a small sigh as she snatched them from my hands. I swung my legs over the edge of the bed, letting all three of them hang limply. well... almost limply. "What the hell? Scootaloo... Just throw me those jeans will ya?"

the said jeans landed on my head. as i pulled them off, I gave her a small smile.

"well hey, you said it would be fun, but do you really think I wouldn't have gone along with it if it wasn't a bad Idea?"

She Looked at me up and down for a moment. the simply raise a hand to her face. "well, look at the outcome, we're both naked, soaking wet and Might I add, one of us is a little....bit.... wow...." I stood up and turned my back, knowing what she was talking about at the end of the sentence.

I was desperately trying to hide an erection. "uh, yeah... That happened" I nervously chuckled out.

"So anyways," I pulled the jeans up. "Scootaloo... next time? warn me first!"

"How was I supposed to know the friggen thing would snap when we swung across!"

I began to laugh.

She smiled as she turned to me, noticing the Infinity symbol emblazoned on my shoulder. "So, what are we gonna do for the rest of the day?" I simply shrugged.

"Dinner? May aswell re-enforce the fact that we're dating now" considering it happened a week ago.

I wouldn't be surprised if someone tried to steal her away. She gave a bright smile.

yeah, I scored tickets to an Iron Mareden concert, turns out not only are they exactly the same band from earth but Scootaloo was a huge fan. I found this out through Belle. Turns out Belle wanted us to get together despite the fact that Applebloom had a distaste for me. I'll tell you now, when i heard the first few bars of Aces High... I flipped my shit.

but then again, so did she.

but thats also when the trouble began.

back to the history lesson...

where was i?

oh yeah.

the siblings created life. but without light there could be no light.

Gaia Created the moon. Faust created the sun. she placed the sun in the center of the galaxy, content in knowing her place. she provided the warmth of love to her new children. Gaia placed the moon in front of the sun protecting the fledgling race from harm. but soon Gaia grew Jealous, and created his own offspring, he then placed them on the planet. the two races soon started to become one as the countless millennia flew by.

Soon Gaia grew bored at first, but then began to notice something. He was not loved, He was ignored.

He grew angry. he began to lash out at the universe in his rage. Faust had begun to calm the raging god down but it was too late. In his fury he had corrupted the beings on the planet. it was just enough to get the small creatures to invent, curse and kill. but there was balance. He was still ignored, but now he knew better.

He knew what his anger could do. but not what his sister's could.

then came that terrible day. His sister had finally had enough of the small creatures, how they would fight each other in their petty wars, all in her name. many names were used to justify each side.

In the end, she finally succumbed to fury, and in the process, wiped out half a species.

Her brother stood before her, beaten, bruised and prepared to die for the race of beings.

he confronted her.

but all she wanted was love.

love like the species she had laid to waste had.

Love is an evil thing.

but it is a necessary evil.

her brother laid with her.

sating her needs.

new life was created and placed on the planet.

thus the first Alicorns were born....

the Alicorns known as...

oh fuck.
