The Peacemaker
Ascension

Chrysalis continued to gawk at the fact that I was somehow standing and able to deflect her blasts, to be perfectly honest I wasn’t sure either but I had a burning rage inside me that couldn’t be tamed.
“How… how is this possible… humans are weak” Chrysalis screeched. I flew forward at an incredible speed that was parallel to none. My fist slammed into her chest and electricity crackled. Her body floated back in a seemingly slow motion effect.
She managed to stagger the pain off but as she did I threw jabs into her at alarming speeds. There was no way she stood a chance now and she knew it.
I stopped pummeling her with my fists and gave her a round house kick to the side of the head that sent her body tumbling along the ground. Her body skidded to a stop and she back flipped then began to fly as she breathed heavily in disbelief that I had this kind of strength.
“Impossible… it can’t be… YOU SHALL DIE!” she screamed as her horn flared up and a very powerful blast of green energy launched towards me. I tilted my body to the side and the blast completely missed me, she gritted her teeth in anger as her horn began to illuminate a powerful green. Globs of pure energy dripped from her jagged horn as she maxed out her energy.
I stepped my right foot back and brought my arms up to my chest level. “DODGE THIS” she screamed and energy shots burst from her horn like torpedoes and flew towards me. In a flash of motion I flew into the air, as I narrowly evaded the energy blasts, it was like I was a blur of motion and within seconds I was within striking distance of Chrysalis.
My fist was like a sledgehammer as it collided with the side of her head, disbelief along with disgruntled pain filled her facial expression. The power of my punch sent her hurtling into the ground and her body created a crater as she crashed.
She got up and looked to me in the sky as I floated down to the ground peacefully. “How… how is this possible?” she screeched and I snickered. “What? What is so funny?” she asked in an agitated tone. “When I first fought you I lost because I fought for love, for others. You drained my powers because you feed off the emotion of love, I realized this in your fight with Discord, though he fought for fun and mere chaos it was still enough for you to feed off his emotions and drain his energy. But now the tables have turned Chrysalis, I fight for anger, for hate, for selfishness… I no longer fight for the ones I love, I fight purely with the rage and hatred built up inside my body” I told her in a deep tone and she snarled and gritted her teeth.
From behind Chrysalis I could hear the weak mocking laughter of Discord. Chrysalis turned to see Discord staggering to stay sitting up. “Chrysalis… your time of tyranny is over… you must now face your judge from… from a monkey ahhahahaha” Discord laughed weakly. Chrysalis snarled and lifted her front left hoof up and a green beam of energy shot out and shot through Discord’s chest.
As the blast shot through his body he gasped in pain, blood spat out of his mouth as he gasped and his body fell back onto the ground with a quiet thump. I flew over to him and knelt down beside him.
“Discord… I can’t believe you Chrysalis, he was already down!” I yelled in anger. Discord leaned up weakly “Yes… yes that’s it Petrovich… let the ang… anger course through… through your body… it is the only way to… to…ugh” Discord gasped and fell back, a tear came to his right eye and rolled down his face. “Petrovich… she is afraid of you… afraid of all humans… because of what they can become… what they can do… please let your anger take over… it is the only way… you have to defeat her or… or happiness everywhere will cease to exist… please Petrovich… don’t let her… win” Discord gasped them his head fell to the ground and he passed away, the lone tear he shed fell to the ground and was soaked into the earth.
“Such a waste of life” Chrysalis sneered and my rage began to burn out of control. “And yet another life you could have saved… but didn’t” Chrysalis laughed. My rage burst past its limitations and I lost myself in my rage and fury.
My fists clenched and my muscles tensed as I went began to ascend beyond the point of strength I had already reached, through angered grunts I managed to yell “He gave everything… for nothing… he didn’t need to try and save Equestria, he could have just left… but he didn’t, he stayed and fought… I WILL AVENGE HIM!”

Third person:
The ground of all Equestria seemed to shake violently like an earthquake. Chrysalis stepped back in shock as the aurora around Dmitry’s body began to flash brilliantly and instead of flowing around his body it began to push directly outwards in a jagged pattern. Dmitry let out a roar as his muscles began to tone and expand as his strength grew to ridiculous heights.
Celestia and the element bearers looked to Dmitry and Celestia gasped. Twilight tried to comprehend what was happening but couldn’t “What’s… what’s going on… it feels like… like” Twilight stuttered. “He’s ascending… that power is unreal” Celestia gasped, “Ascending?” Twilight asked and Celestia looked to the young unicorn. “When Alicorns finally ascend their power level boosts considerably, they also get new mane features… well except Cadence she… well she never really ascended, she just never was really interested in power and strength” Celestia informed her and Twilight scrunched her nose.
“Ascend? Power level?” Twilight asked bluntly and Celestia nodded. “When I ascended I was able to control the sun” Celestia informed her and Twilight nodded. “But Dmitry isn’t an alicorn” Twilight replied and Celestia snickered. “I gave him alicorn abilities back at the LBH base so it wouldn’t be strange for him to be able to ascend” Celestia told her. “Did you have to go through a second ascension so you could control both the moon and sun?” Twilight asked and Celestia shook her head. “No, I was in captivity when Chrysalis had stolen my form, she was powerful enough to control both sun and moon” Celestia informed her.
Dmitry stopped roaring and began to breathe deeply as he calmed himself down. His muscles were larger and his hair had grown from short buzzed hair to longer more scraggily hair. “Well, that took considerably longer than it should have… and your power is still no match for mine” Chrysalis laughed. Dmitry snarled and launched forward at incredible speeds but Chrysalis teleported behind him and slammed an elbow into the back of his head.
Dmitry stumbled forward through the air and attempted to keep his concentration so he was able to keep his flight. He spun around and turned to face Chrysalis, she however paid him no mind and brought her body upright so that she was mimicking Dmitry’s body posture. She cocked her forelegs back and a green aurora surrounded her body and her muscle size bulked up considerably but not ridiculously.
“Oh no” Celestia gasped, Twilight looked to Equestria’s true leader in fear. “What is it?” she asked worriedly and Celestia groaned in fear “I thought that Chrysalis had already ascended, but now that she has taken her full power… she easily outmatches Dmitry” Celestia said fearfully.
As Chrysalis charged Dmitry again, Dmitry simply sped around her in a simple motion that was so quick only brief flashes of his body could be seen and he slammed a punch into Chrysalis and her body flew downwards before Dmitry’s body could be seen. He stood there, motionless with a look of silent anger on his face.
“I must admit… that was pretty good… for a human” Chrysalis laughed. “Is that a compliment?” Dmitry asked and Chrysalis brushed her mane out of her face and to the side. “I don’t think so” she laughed and suddenly Dmitry was knocked forward and it was as if she just appeared behind Dmitry as she said that and somehow managed to complete her sentence.
Dmitry fell forward but spun around and shot multiple blasts of energy from his palms that all collided with Chrysalis and erupted on impact. Dmitry fell head first towards the ground but before he landed he stuck his hands downwards and stopped himself from crashing then pushed himself into a back flip and landed on his feet.
The smoke from Dmitry’s energy blasts faded but Chrysalis still floated in the air, literally unharmed. “You ruined my mane” she muttered then flew forward but as she did Dmitry swung his body and threw a backhand into the air behind him and amazingly he predicted that Chrysalis would teleport behind him and he struck her in the side of the face and knocked her to the ground.
Dmitry flew backwards, away from her body, and blasted her relentlessly with energy blasts.
Dmitry landed on his feet and readied himself quickly but no matter how fast he became, Chrysalis seemed to always go further. From out of the smoke Chrysalis’ body flew forward and smashed dozens upon dozens of powerful punches into Dmitry and he staggered from all the force.
Dmitry got a window of opportunity and took it. He slammed his palm into her chest and blasted her with a sphere of energy and knocked her body back. Dmitry flew back and lowered his arms, his aurora along with the longer hair, electricity and muscle size all disappeared.
“Giving up?” Chrysalis laughed and Dmitry smiled. “Not even close… I just wanted to try something” Dmitry replied and Chrysalis laughed. “Nothing you can do can match your power with mine” Chrysalis sneered.
Dmitry clenched his fists and his power level quickly returned but he grunted then his grunts turned into a roar of anger and his aurora began to grow even more than it had before, becoming more jagged and exerting more energy than ever before.
Celestia closed her eyes and felt Dmitry’s power begin to rise further. “Gah… this power it’s… it’s unreal” Twilight said as she felt the magic power vibrations fill the air, any unicorn or alicorn could feel his power level rise to a new peak.
Dmitry’s aurora forced the trees back to a near snapping point and the ground thundered beneath him like never before. Dmitry’s roar could be heard from Ponyville and Trixie was taken back in awe.
Hammerhead looked over to her in shock, “Trixie is something wrong?” Hammerhead asked and Trixie nodded. “Arm the missile” she replied quickly and Hammerhead looked to the human leader and he nodded as he grabbed the radio. “Nostramo, I say again Nostramo. This is general Icarus Irving, please respond, over” Icarus said into the radio and then the static reply came. “This is the Nostramo, we copy your all, what is your request over?” the Nostramo captain replied.
“Target the human that is battling in the fields north of Ponyville, use track and lead targeting, when I give the go launch the nuclear missile, launch it. Over” Icarus ordered and the Nostramo captain replied “Copy your all, track and lead, over and out” and with that the radio line was ended and Icarus hung up the radio.
Dmitry continued to roar and his power vibrations had gone all the way to Saddle-Arabia. “Ugh… if Dmitry doesn’t knock this off now than he might destroy all of Equestria with a massive earthquake” Celestia gasped and grunted and she closed her eyes and clenched them shut, his power was extraordinary.
Luna had arisen from her sleep, being the princess of the night meant she had to sleep during the day to recover from exhaustion and had not been informed of any of the current issues. She closed her eyes and contacted her sister telepathically. She gasped suddenly in realization that there was two Celestias but as she concentrated harder she realized that one was an imposter and the other wasn’t. “I knew it” Luna gasped then contacted her real sister.
“Sister it is us, please tell us what has happening?” Luna asked her sister and Celestia returned a thought to her sister. “A human has been granted alicorn powers and is fighting with Chrysalis and has ascended” Celestia informed her sister and Luna scrunched her nose. “Sister… is it wise to enchant humans with alicorn powers?” Luna asked and Celestia smiled. “Yes sister, this was a human that could be trusted” Celestia replied.
Luna felt the royal castle shake beneath her hooves. “Sister what is happening?” Luna asked and teleported to the battle and nearly fell to her stomach, the vibrations in the earth were much more sever here than in the castle. Luna noticed the human in the sky. He had ascended and she could easily feel his power ‘But what does he think he’s doing?’ she asked herself as she got to her hooves.
“This… is to go… a step beyond” Dmitry grunted as his hair seemed to disappear completely but soon a holographic flashing hair style began to grow from his head, almost like Celestia’s and Luna’s manes.
“He must be bluffing… I mean what would that make him? Double ascended?” Luna laughed. Dmitry’s powerful vibrations even reached mountains and they crumbled down from the sheer power.
In Manehatten ponies scurried along the streets in fear, not knowing what was happening. Suddenly the vibrations caused the glass in skyscraper windows to shatter and glass fell from the towers and littered the streets.
Dmitry’s hair had grown down past his shoulders but continued on, flowing like some sort of smoke or vapor. His muscles didn’t bulk up at all but his power could easily be felt as it reached beyond that of anything ever foretold in all of Equestrian or human history.
Dmitry brought his arms into the air then brought them back down and cocked them at his side, as he did one final vibration was sent through the ground and air. His aurora flashed erratically outwards rather than flowing in a smooth pattern around his body. Electricity crackled around his body, his hair or rather his mane was flowing down past his waist. His hair/mane looked like Luna’s only it was a little bit of a lighter shade of blue, but only ever so slightly.
His face and muscles had become more toned but he was still easily recognizable. Chrysalis gasped in fear and Dmitry turned his head slowly towards Chrysalis. “This will be one for the history books” Celestia muttered.
