Dimensional Lords. To most beings, they don't even know that this organization of beings exist. But they do. Their existence is one that is tied and yet divided with the Time Magisters. In truth, the magisters and dimensional lords hate each other. One is an organization of time bearers, beings that manipulate, preserve and keep time. The other handles the matters of Space. Space and Time go hand in hand, hoof in hoof. Despite this, they hate each other.
The Dimensional Lords are beings that manipulate, preserve and help over spatial matters. That and the traveling of dimensions. They help keep the balance of dimensional planes, unstable space, and unnatural powers. They possess the ability to manipulate dimensions and space itself, making sure that power is in the right place. Due to this, they could hand in hand, hoof in hoof mess with Time.
However, they still hate each other. They were known to never ever agree with each other. In doing so, Chrono was told to join Celestia when meeting this 'Nebula' he had heard about. He felt his stomach toil as the name 'Nebula' made him cringe. His mind was aflame from thinking about that name.
Why? Why do I think something really bad is about to happen?
"Pretty sure you're thinking that since your entire mission keeps going down the tubes."
"Chaos! You know that's not true!"
"Oh come on Order! You know that he's going crazy and things keep getting crazier. That's just how it works here!"
"Now listen here, you know that-"
Quiet you two! I don't need you two yelling in my head while I meet this 'Nebula'! he yelled internally, causing both voices to vanish. He knew they would be back, but he didn't care. All he knew is that he was about to meet somepony new and then cake would happen. Cake made everything better.
A few minutes later, his initial thoughts became reality as he and Celestia went to greet this newcomer. As they went to the other side of the castle, Chrono couldn't help but think that something bad was about to happen. Then, they finally reached Luna, who had a small blue alicorn filly with a dark purple mane with her. Chrono's eyes shrunk as he instantly recognized what the filly really was.
Oh ****. No...no no no! Not a Dimensional Lord! Not here! Not now! he let out a groan as he stared at the filly, who just glared at him. This is not gonna go well, is it?
"Seriously? You're asking that now? You kept thinking that before you got here!"
"Stop that Chaos! You know that-"
Be quiet! I'm not in the mood to listen to you ramble on! We have a situation here!
"We?"
"Be quiet Chaos. Let him think."
Chrono looked to Celestia and then Luna as night princess spoke up, "Nebula, meet your soon-to-be-cousin, Chrono Stream!" she exclaimed as she pointed to Chrono.
Chrono just blinked at the exchange as Celestia replied, "I see you've already planned on adopting this filly. Oh, the nobles will have a fit when they hear of this."
"Forget that simple-minded rabble, for today is yet another glorious night! And right after Nightmare Night! Perhaps we can have a third night of glory in a row tomorrow night!" Luna yelled as Chrono ignored her as he began a staring contest with 'Nebula'. The filly soon decided to walk right up Chrono, their muzzles almost touching as they continued to glare at each other.
It was here that another voice spoke up, one that Chrono recognized but he hadn't noticed this individual had entered the hallway. "Umm... aunties? I think something is wrong with the two foals." Cadance said as Celestia and Luna were now temporarily distracted by the Alicorn of Love.
"What are you doing here?" Nebula hissed, her teeth gritting.
"None of your business, but I could ask the same for you." Chrono whispered as he gave her the stink eye.
"Well, I'll be honest then, I have no idea why I'm here."
"Typical for one of you dimensional egomaniacs." Chrono sneered, wanting to facehoof at this confrontation.
"Pretentious time-obsessed snob." Nebula whispered back with a continuing glare.
"OOOOHHH!! She told you son! You gonna take that?!"
Shut up.
"Agreed. Be silent Chaos."
You too. Chrono irked as he yelled inside his head.
Celestia then leaned down with a cocked eyebrow in confusion. "Have you two met before?"
"Never seen him in my entire life." Nebula responded before Chrono could reply.
Seeing this, Luna gave a face of joy. "They were trying to assert their dominance!"
Everypony looked at Luna as Celestia replied, "That is just a ridiculous thing for you to sa—"
"I was asserting my dominance." Nebula interrupted, making Chrono frown as Celestia then glared at the alicorn filly.
"Then why, pray tell, were you asserting your dominance over a colt that is going to be your cousin?"
"Cause I wanted to let him know who's boss out of the two of us."
Chrono and Celestia both wanted to facehoof from that statement. Instead, a sudden puff of smoke appeared before the sun princess. Inside was a scroll, which Celestia quickly enveloped in her magic before quickly reading. "Ah, it seems my student or one of her friends has sent me a letter." Celestia's face soon changed back to wanting to facehoof as she finished reading the letter.
"What is wrong sister? Is one of the Elements in trouble?" Luna asked, seeing the slight disgust on her sister's face.
"No, but this is a letter from Pinkie Pie, addressed to the newest member of our family," Celestia answered as she glared at Nebula before fully closing the scroll.
"There's a letter already addressed for me? And here I was hoping to be that black sheep of the family that no pony pays attention to," Nebula said as everypony responded with a slight look of confusion. "What? I never said I was a normal pony, even if I'm an alicorn. So are you going to tell me what it is, my future aunt-to-be?"
Celestia then started on how Pinkie was going to make her 'smile', which made Chrono just mentally groan. He ignored the next few statements as he looked Nebula over. Ugh. Why is there a Dimensional Lord here?! WHY?! This mission just keeps getting worse and worse.
"No kidding huh? Nothing better than something showing up to mess things up even more, huh? Remember what happened when you encountered Pinkie two days ago? That was pure insanity."
Tch. Can't disagree there...to a voice I don't acknowledge.
"Oh really? And what about-"
"That's enough Chaos. We need to report to the other time magisters now that a Dimensional Lord is here."
I agree.
"Ugh...fine."
"Yes Nebula, welcome to our family," Celestia said as Chrono snapped himself back into the conversation. Celestia on the other hoof, decided to end the conversation. "I'll see you three at breakfast, I'm going to have the chefs prepare some extra cake today."
"Now that's more like it!"
"Now now, we need to-"
Don't care. Cake comes first.
"But what about-"
"You heard the man! Cake first, time garbage later."
With that, Chrono began his trek to the dining hall with Celestia. He knew that tonight he would have to report to the time magisters over the Dimensional Lord, but right now? Right now was cake time and that was all that mattered.
