"He's been asleep for hours! When will he wake up already?" Said Rainbow Dash. "The Princess said he'll awake when his body is ready. So just wait a bit longer Rainbow." Replied Twlight. "I hope the poor dear didn't exhaust himself to much." Said Rarity. All of the girls were getting real worried that I might not even wake up. "No. Cody will wake up. I believe in him!" Said the dertermined Fluttershy. Twilight and the others saw that Fluttershy meant it. So they all believed in me and prayed for the best. At the same time I was asleep I felt an enormous evil presence. I wasn't sure what it was but at the same time I knew who was pulling the strings I just couldn't put my fingers on it. I stood there in complete darkness. I couldn't even see my hands let alone my whole body. Then a bright flash of light shinned it's self upon me. I was beginning to see but I wished I hadn't. I stood there froze with fear and anger. "Twilight. AppleJack. Rarity. Pinkie. Rainbow. Fluttershy. No." I said while being in horror. All of the girls were lying there on the grassy hill dead. "They can't be. They can't be dead!" I said while trying to deny from what I saw. *KA-BOOM!!!* I turned around to see where the explosion came from. It was Ponyville. It was being destroyed. I then saw every other pony there lying dead upon me. I couldn't believe it everyone died. Then I heard an evil demonic laughter coming from behind me. I turned around to see it. It was Discord. Discord was the one who was responsable for all of this. I was about to chase at him and end it all. But then a white flash of light appeared before me. I then saw the Elements Of Harmony right infront of me. A voice echoed to me. "Young one. You must except your destiny." Said the voice. "My destiny? What's my destiny?" I asked the voice. "To die for Harmony." The voice replied. "What?" I said. "You must die for Harmony." Replied the voice. As I was about to ask it what that means I was blinded. I woke up in a room after the light had blinded me. "Cody!" Said the girls. "Uhhh.... What happened?" I asked them. "You collapsed after you fought the Changlings." Said the happy Pinkie. I was trying to get up and move but I was stopped. "Cody you need to rest. You haven't recovered from the fight." Said Twilight while trying to hold me down. "I can't. I need to get to the Elements." I replied. "Why in the hay are ya trying to get to the Elements?" Said AppleJack. "TO SAVE EVERYONE!" I replied in anger. The girls gasped as they all looked at me. "What do you mean Cody?" Asked Rainbow. I looked down at the floor and was about to cry. "There's no need to cry my human friend" Said Celestia. We all looked to see Celestia walked into the room. The girls gave a bow to her once she stepped inside. I tried ot do the same but the pain got in my way. "Auughh!" Celestia chuckled at me while I was trying to be polite even though I'm injured. "So your the human named Cody. I've heard quite alot about you from Twilight and the others." Said Celestia. "Yeah that's me. Cody Alan Aldirch. A pleasure to meet you your highness." I said while saluting to Celestia. "Please the pleasure is all mine." Said Celestia. "You my young human friend are quite the prize. Your kind, gernerous, caring for others, always helps out no matter what, and you would even go out of the way and put yourself in harms way to save everypony even if that means sacraficing yourself. Your quite the package Cody." Said Celestia. I blushed. "Thanks." I replied with a smile. "I hear that your looking for the Elements Of Harmony. May I ask why?" Celestia asked me. "I need them to save everyone." I replied quietly. "And what do you mean by that?" Said Celestia. "I had some weird vison. About The girls dying along with Ponyville and Discord coming back." I said. The girls gasped. "I see. So that's explains why you need to find the Elements. But that doesn't explain why you need them. You can't use them." said Celestia. "Is there anything else?" Asked Celestia. I shook my head. "I see. Come along My Little Ponies let's let him rest." Said Celstia. As the girls went out of the room that last thought cam to my head (You must die for Harmony). That thought kept repeating it's self in my head. A couple of days have passed and I was released from the hospital. The girls, Princess Celestia and Princess Luna all came to greet me. "Welcome back Cody!" Said the girls. "Thanks." I replied. "Come with us Cody we have a surprise for you!" Said Pinkie as she jumped up and down. So I went with them. We got to the Throne room. I was them greeted by Shining Armor and Cadance. "So your the one who saved us all?" Asked Shining Armor. I nodded. He then stook out his hoof. "Cadance and I just wanted to say thank you for saving us and my little Twiliy." Said Shining Armor. Cadance then replied "Yes thank you Cody. You saved us all. Including our unborn child." "No problem. I'm just glad everypony is safe." I said while giving Armor the hoofshake he stook out. We all talked for a while. They told me alot about there past's from the first time that they could remember up to the day before the incedent. Who knew Twilight did all that? Not me that's for sure. "So Cody tell us about your past." Asked Cadance. I lowered my head trying not to think about my whole past. "Well you see my past is extremly complicated. It's not a subject I usually like to talk about." I said. "Look Cody I can understand how you feel. But sometimes the best way to let go of your past and move on is to tell others about it." Said Cadance. I looked at her with such surprise. (She's right. I need to stop beating myself up about this and start moving on!) I thought to myself. "Ok then. If you really want to know about me I'll tell you." I said to them. For hours I told them about my past as far as I could remember. When I was finished I saw the look in there eyes. It was sadness, anger, and respect. "Wow. That's, quite the story." Said Shining Armor. I tried to stop myself from getting depressed. "I'm sorry for what happend to you Cody. But I have to ask." Said Cadance. "What?" I replied. "Well after everything has happened to you do you really think that you can let go of Earth?" Said Cadance. I was shocked. (Maybe she's right. Maybe I really should give Earth a second chance. But who know how long I've been gone? I probably was found missing and everyone is looking for me.) I said to myself quietly. (But at the same time they probably didn't really care to search for me.) I was in deep thought thinking what I should do? I mean if I do go back to Earth will everything change or will it get worse for me? I just couldn't decide. I finally came up with an answer. "I think I figured out what to do." I said. "Well? What is your desicion?" Asked Shining Armor. "Well I am going to stay here. But I would like to revisit Earth one more time and see how everything is. If it is the same as I left and no one really cared for me I'll say my final goodbye's and head back here. But if it did change I'll stay there as happy as I could be." I said to them with confidence. "That's the spirit!" Said Shining Armor. "I hope that you can find your everlasting peace Cody." Said Cadance. I smiled. But it hit me then. How am I going to explain to everpony about this? Will they hate me for it or except for what I've chosen? As I stood there thinking it out again. Then the girls, Princess Celestia, and Princess Luna walked in. "Hello Cody." Said Celestia. "Hello Princess. What's going on?" I asked her. "It's Discord. You were right he's gone." Said Twilight. I froze. "So I decided that the girls must wear The Elements once again and defeat Discord once and for all!" Said Celestia. "But I thought that Discord can't be killed by anypony?" I said. "It it true that Discord can't be slain by anypony. But I think If we used as much magic on him as possbile we can seal Discord forever." Said Twilight. "Now all we have to do is find him." Said Rainbow. "But where in tar'nation is he?" Asked AppleJack. "Why dont you look behind you? We froze for a second. We then turned around to see Discord on the throne............... [AN]: I just wanted to give a huge thank you to Longshot for giving me this idea for a three chapter finisher against Discord!]
