No POV
At the Castle of the two sisters, Daimon and Discord just landed in front of the castle. “So this is where you live.” Said Discord in realization. Daimon nodded before kneeling to let Zecora and Spike slide off of him. Angel wanted to ride on his head. They were all a little worried on letting Discord of all people in on this, but were reminded that Discord has proven himself, at least mostly trustworthy already. So they all decided to give him a chance.
“I can’t wait for you to meet my sister. I think you guys will get along great.” Daimon said to Discord with a smile. This made said Draconequus smile widely.
“Thank you, I’m looking forward to meeting her too.” He said as he started floating again. Daimon smiled bigger before continuing to the castle. Once they entered, they saw Ornstein practicing spear combos and Fluttershy feeding some birds and squirrels.
“Hey everyone, we got the supplies, and a new arrival.” Spike said as Fluttershy and Ornstein turned to see Discord floating their with a smile. Both girls were shocked to see him their, but then Ornstein simply walked over and held out her armored hand.
“Hello, my names Ornstein. It’s nice to meet you.” She said with a smile. Discord was shocked, but smiled as he held out his eagle talon and shook.
“It is nice to meet you as well, I am Discord. I have heard a lot about you from your brother and Spike here.” He said with a gesture at Daimon. This got a smirk from Daimon, a blush under Ornstein’s helmet, and a blush and glare from Spike.
“Really, what did they tell you?” She asked sheepishly and was glad that they couldn’t see through her helmet. Discord got a smirk and would have answered if Fluttershy hadn’t come in to save Ornstein.
“Discord? What are you doing here? And stop teasing Ornstein.” She said, to which Discord hung his head until Ornstein stepped in.
“It’s fine. Beside’s he could have done worse. He could have acted it out.” She said, to which Discord laughed out loud along with Spike, Zecora, and Daimon. After everyone calmed down they all walked inside so Daimon and Ornstein could finally get to work.
~With everyone else~
Twilight and anyone else who could fly had tailed Daimon and Discord to the Castle of the two sisters. They were shocked that this is where they were staying but were grateful Daimon allowed them to follow them. They landed back down with everyone else to give them the good news.
“Good news everyone, we found them. Their at me and Luna’s old castle.” She said with a smile. Everyone else smiled as well. Rainbow then frowned before asking what’s been plaguing her mind for a little bit.
“I still don’t get why we had to get Daimon’s permission to follow him. We could have just done it anyway.” she said. Everyone had thought of that, but Luna spoke up next.
“That is because before he did, he threatened to fight us again if we did. His sister joined in as well, and we all wouldn’t have been able to drive him back without her help or Fluttershy, Zecora, and Spike.” She said with a glare. Rainbow then remembered how terrifying Daimon was when he was angry, and if his sister was helping him, welllllll.
“Oh right. Sorry.” she said, only to get a hug from the night princess.
“It is alright. It was a simple mistake. Now, let us go and make amends” She said before flying off to the castle. Twilight and Celestia used their magic to levitate Rarity, Pinkie, and Applejack as they all flew off to the castle.
~10 minutes later~
They all finally arrived at the castle’s front. They all had a bad feeling about this. Everytime they come here something weird or bad happens, and now Daimon and Ornstein live here. And to top it all off, DISCORD is here with them. They all sucked it up though. They already caused enough trouble, now was not the time to chicken out or get paranoid. So without further ado, Celestia and Luna opened the doors and they all trotted in, what they saw was surprising, and comforting.
Daimon was using immolation while standing under a metal table with two big, slowly baking cakes in a large glass box over it, probably made by Discord, while Ornstein and Spike were knitting what looked like a large red cape with an image of said Knight’s spear in the middle. Rarity and Pinkie were ecstatic and had to be held down to avoid lunging over and helping.
Twilight was the first to break out of her stupor. “Hello?” she asked, and received shocked looks but they all quickly turned into happy looks.
“Hello Twilight and friends, have you come to make amends?” asked Zecora as they all trotted forward. Celestia spoke first.
“Yes, we have all come to apologize again. If you’ll allow us.” She said with sincerity. Daimon and Ornstein both looked at each other before nodding and looking back at the ponies.
“Yes, and the fact your willing to apologize again has meaning in itself. You still have to do it though. Besides, I haven’t been apologized to yet.” Ornstein said. All the new Ponies looked at each other before nodding and trotting forward. Twilight spoke first.
“I’m sorry for accusing you two and calling you Monsters. I was just so worried for Fluttershy and Spike I acted on instinct and didn’t think straight. I’m really sorry.” she said with a massive sad face. Daimon and Ornstein smiled and nodded thanks to her. Twilight smiled gratefully before stepping out of the way. Applejack came up next.
“I’m mighty sorry too. I was too quick to judge you on your looks. I’m supposed to be the element of Honesty, yet I couldn’t see you were telling the truth. I swear on mah honor to never misjudge someone again. Especially you two.” She said, which got a bigger smile from the two powerful siblings. They gave the apple farmer a thankful nod before Pinkie trotted up next. Her big eyes were big and watery and her mane was flat.
“I-i-i-i-i-i’m s-s-s-sorry a-a-as w-w-w-well. I shouldn't have been such a meanie pants. I’m supposed to make p-p-p-people laugh. Instead, I made you guys really angry. I’m so s-s-s-s-s-SORRRRRRYYYYYY! Wahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaa!” Pinkie shouted as she let the tear ducts out. Surprising to her, both Daimon and Ornstein appeared beside her and wrapped her in a massive hug. Said knight and Arisen had huge smile’s on her faces.
“Don’t cry. It wasn't completely your fault. You just wanted to protect Fluttershy. I can respect that. You just didn’t stop and wait. Beside’s, it all worked out in the end, and you did make me laugh a little when you disappeared in that bush. Hey, when were done, i’ll make more cakes for everyone.” Daimon said with a smile. Pinkie smiled as her mane poofed back up as they set her back as they set her down. Ornstein gave her a thumbs up before they all backed up to give the next pony some space. That pony was Rarity.
“I am deeply sorry as well. I acted very unlady like when I hit you with that boulder. I am also in the same boat as my friends and i feel just terrible for how I treated you. I hope you can forgive me as well.” She said with a sad frown, only to smile when Ornstein placed her hand on Rarity’s shoulder.
“It’s alright. Your right, you had the same problem as everyone else. But you had good intentions. Besides, your being pretty generous by giving us a second chance anyway. Thank you.” Ornstein said with a smile under her helmet. Somehow, Rarity could tell and smiled in return. Rarity stepped back just as Princess Luna trotted forward.
“We are sorry as well. If we had just listen to thow, then none of this would have happened.” She said with a frown. Daimon just smiled before replying.
“Hey, you were the only one who hesitated to fight us. And you scolded them afterward. You deserve the least of the blame besides them.” He said pointing at Spike, Zecora, and Fluttershy. Luna smiled widely before giving a curt nod and trotting back next to her sister. Finally, Rainbow flew over, not even looking at them.
“I-i’m sorry as well. I shouldn’t have acted like such a jerk. I just, when I first saw you with Flutters, it looked like you were going to crush her. I just reacted on instinct like everyone else. I have a habit of doing not thinking. I’m really sorry too.” she said with a surprisingly large amount of sincerity. Daimon was shocked, as well as Ornstein. From how she acted earlier, they didn’t expect her to apologize like this. They were shocked, but it was quickly replaced by admiration. Daimon reached a large hand out and with his index claw, lightly scratched behind her ear. Rainbow did not expect this, and the sudden sensation caused her to land on the ground and lean into Daimon’s touch.
“It’s alright. You were just being very protective of your friends. And the fact you never quit when fighting me was a true show of courage. And you stuck with what you thought was right. Being loyal doesn’t always mean doing what your friends say, it means to trust them, and sometimes your just too confused to trust them, that doesn’t mean your a bad friend. Remember that.” He said with a kind smile that could rival Celestia’s motherly smile.
Rainbow was bewildered he forgave her so easily. She thought he would be almost as mad at her as he was at Princess Celestia. She was however, grateful he wasn’t. She then saw Ornstein hold out her fist. Rainbow was confused at first but then realized what she wanted. She flew high enough and then bumped her hoof with Ornstein’s armored fist. Ornstein gave her a nod as Rainbow smiled and flew back with everyone else.
Lastly, Celestia trotted up. She was about to speak but was silenced by a raised hand from Daimon. He then stepped out of the way for Fluttershy to trot up. This made the white Alicorn tilt her head down even more. Fluttershy however, wasn’t mad at all. In fact, she had been silently cheering for everyone for apologizing before. She wasn’t mad at Celestia either since Daimon told her that she apologized twice before they got here. Neither was Ornstein. She was also happy at how the white Alicorn had Apologized too, and also felt bad for how much guilt she must have felt after the whole ordeal.
Ornstein and Fluttershy looked at each other and gave a consecutive nod and walked forward. Before Celestia could speak again she was once again wrapped in a massive hug. One on her legs and another on her neck. She was shocked out of her stupors when they let go. She saw the smiling face of Fluttershy,the happy nod of Ornstein, and the smile of Spike as he walked up as well. No words needed to be said. Everyone agreed as well. Even though she was at the most fault, Celestia had apologized the most and felt the worst. Daimon, Fluttershy, Ornstein, Zecora, and Spike all agreed she had suffered enough so they all said the one sentence everyone needed to hear.
“We forgive you.”
All the other ponies smiled and smiled wider and Daimon and Ornstein beckoned them over and they all started a great party. And I’m talking a Pinkie style party. With a little bit of Chaos.
”This will be fun” The Arisen and Golden knight said as they fist bumped with happy smirks on their faces or in Ornstein’s case, under her helmet.
