//------------------------------// // Creations // Story: Harmony // by Script Nova //------------------------------// Elisa controlled all things in the forest keeping creatures away from the ponies. The creatures in the forest weren't made by Elisa but from some other pony. His name was Ambrose he was a form of a pony but wasn't like Elisa. He had three horns shaped like a crown, skin dark brown, and mane as blue as the night sky. Ambrose was the king of all mythical creatures from Timber wolfs to Changelings. His power has always been unknown even to Elisa. They both met when the world was first created. Ambrose was drawn by the shared beauty and kindness that Elisa had. You could say they were in love but they both had different goals for one dimension. She wanted peace, love, sharing, happiness, and loyalty. While he just wanted the opposite thinking things can be fixed if unbalanced this was something Elisa didn't like out of him but she still tries in order for him to understand his ways of being horrible.      Luna met him when she first resin the moon and got her cutie mark seeing as the moonlight shines on him. He walked up to her briefly smiling at her.      "So Elisa made a filly. And not just any filly, an alicorn." Luna walked backward as he got closer, "You're powerful but yet, you're afraid." Ambrose sits in front of Luna watching her every move, "I have no attention of harming you. I just wanted to see what you were."      "You know my mommy?"      "We have grown up together. Although we do different things."      "What do you do?" Curious to know but Ambrose shook his head no.      "You will know sooner or later. But for now, there will be other things both you and your sister will face. They will test you to see if Elisa made you strong enough."      "But what about my sister? Her too?"      "No, just you." His mane began to move like a fog tord Luna surrounding her, this scared her to where she ended up closing her eyes having her hoofs over her head calling for Celestia and Elisa. Ambrose was no longer there after Celestia and Elisa showed up the fog was gone.      "Luna, why didn't you stay with us?" Asked Celestia.      "You're not yet ready to do things on your own, especially when other creatures mostly attack foals." Said Elisa.      "I'm sorry, just wanted to try to raise the moon."      Elisa put her hoof around Luna telling her it's alright. Elisa even knew she met Ambrose sentencing him still around, "Why don't you go with your sister. I'll be with you shortly." Luna started walking away next to Celestia.      "You know me too well Elisa."      "How could you harm a foal like her?"      "I was just curious, never thought you would be the type of pony to create something like that."      She made her horn glow as the flowers in her mane also glow, "If you ever hurt my creation I swear to you--"      "What will you do? My power surpasses yours. All those creatures I made are proof of that. Now the changelings, they're more harmless then what I'll make later on. But I wonder, was it the right thing to create those alicorns? Seems to me you want the same thing as I do. Destruction."      "No, you're wrong! I never want that!"      "Hum, hum, who sweet Elisa. If only you can look into the future as I do. All things that are created end up having a choice to save everything or destroy it. The two foals you made are one of them."      "I overheard you think Luna is the only one strong."      "I did, but so can Celestia. Celestia seems like a key to end all things."      Elisa shot a beam at him as he used his mane as a shield to get away, "I want aloud it!"      "It has already has begun. Nothing can change it."      Elisa no longer senses his presence she has now regretted what she created. Her creation being something she was hoping to avoid, a flicker came to her mind. There will always be hope, even in the darkest times.      At the beginning of the fall, Elisa went ahead to let Celestia and Luna use their wings. They didn't move much only when they were excited or stretching. Celestia was very excited to do this, why wouldn't she be? Flying felt like a dream come true, Luna on the other hoof didn't want to. Raising the moon was already hard enough.      "Now girls, don't expect to do well on the first try. This is working progress much like raising the moon and sun."      "How do you know about flying when you don't have wings?" Asked Luna.      Elisa gave her a charming smile as wings began to appear from her body. Both Celestia and Luna had their mouths gape open, "Shall we begin?"      Flapping their wings very fast with Elisa gliding underneath them in case they stop flying. Celestia slowly began to slow down her wings while the wind helps her grip in the sky. Luna didn't do that and end up falling as her wings were given in. Elisa caught her seeing how upset she was seeing her older sister able to get the hang of it, "It's not fair, big sis is already mastering it! Why can't I?!" A tear started to fall from Luna's face as Elisa went ahead landing to solid ground. Celestia too saw her upset landing on her mom's back next to Luna.      "No! Get away!"      "But Lulu, you will get better."      "But I want to fly now!"      "Luna, I know how it feels when a thing doesn't happen within a day." Wings disappearing putting both Celestia and Luna on the grass, "It was hard for me to use magic."      "You?" Said both Celestia and Luna.      "All creations and creature do learn to control their powers. One pony helps me with mine."      "Was it the pony I met?" Said Luna. Elisa didn't say anything but smiled with her eyes closed.      "But he wanted to harm Lulu."      "Maybe I should show you, instead of telling you." She neal her horn down letting both Luna and Celestia touch it with their horn. Magic was now flowing through Luna and Celestia's horn creating a time gate into the past.      Luna and Celestia saw nothing as it was all pitch black, then light began to brighten seeing their mom trying to use magic for the first time.      "For crying out loud! Can this horn stay lit for more than thirty seconds!"      "Hum, hum, it looks like you need a helping hoof."      *gasp* "Who's there?" Feeling fog flow around her face.      "Come down Elisa."      "How do you know my name?"      "Now that is a rhetorical question. Both you and I can read each other's minds, it is a unique ability."      "But I don't know no such thing."      "You're thinking too hard. Let's worry about this place first. What will you do? What will you make? How would you make it?" She relaxed her eyes from squinting so much as her horn began to light up ones more, the fog now flowing agents her cheek feeling even more relaxed. Another horn was now touching her's feeling the presence of another pony. She then created light, planets, and stars the pony in front of her stood with a charming smile.      "Was that easy?"      "Yes... Thanks to you." Blushing seeing how handsome he was.      "I just gave you a push, now where are my matters? I must introduce myself to the most beautiful pony I have ever met. I am Ambrose, you must be Elisa; Harmony itself."      "I'm flattered, but are you sure you're not trying to have your way with me?"      Ambrose laughed briefly, "I'm not that kind pony, I'm meant to tell the truth and help create as well." Hearing that he too is apart of Harmony.      Celestia and Luna came out of the past knowing Ambrose being with their mom from the beginning.      "You two were close?" Asked Celestia.      "Sort of."      "Sort of? Not what we saw just now." Said Luna.      "So many things happened at that time. Yes, he was cute, but I did need to bring other things and ponies to the world. He insists on helping, but I also found out later on what his attentions were to where I had nothing to do with him anymore." Elisa holds back her tears not wanting to show any emotion. It then started to rain chocolate; Elisa looked up seeing pink clouds, a flock of dragon-like creatures was flying over with a baby seeing them.      The baby came down to get a better look. It had two kinds of horns one a deer antler and antelope, head of a goat, body of a dragon, tail of a snake, four kinds of feet (paw, claw, hoof, and reptilian), and two kinds of wings (bat and eagle). Elisa was ready to strike if anything else happens to try to keep Luna and Celestia close. Luna teleport to the creature saying hi. It was scared of her more than them being scared of it. Luna boop him on the snout causing him to blush. Elisa saw how happy Luna was with Celestia too teleported to Luna.      "What's your name?" Asked Luna.      "My name? I have no name, we kinda have no use for them."      "What are you exactly?" Asked Celestia.      "A draconequus, are magic is what you can call chaotic." Still seeing the chocolate rain coming from the pink clouds, "We do other things too, but I have not learned them yet."      "Then... We should call you, Discord!" Luna in excitement.      "Discord? That sounds like a great name to have."      "Very well." Luna Hugged Discord squeezing him tight.      Discord's mom came out of the clouds looking for him seeing him with some ponies. His mom was more of an appearance of a dragon than a draconequus. Looking at both Luna and Celestia with Luna still holding to Discord.      "Look mom I made a new friend!"      "I can see that. They also gave you a name too. Discord." Elisa knows she holds power like her and Ambrose even having the psychic ability. She came up to the mother as she was about to take Discord with her, "Greetings Elisa, sorry for the change of weather. We are now finding a place to live so we can have are chaos without harming anypony else."      "You wouldn't happen to be one of Ambrose's creations are you?"      "No, we are a form of disharmony. The opposite of you. You shouldn't hold back how you feel about Ambrose. He is what he is and you are what you are." Taking Discord with her, the chocolate rain along with the pink clouds as they were no longer to be seen. Elisa started to see her and Ambrose not the only ones with power like that, there are other forces for the world to endure.      Luna and Celestia were now teenagers exploring the land instead of just the Everfree Forest. They came to a village that was almost made out of crystal and the ponies were too crystal-like, one, however, didn't seem like a crystal pony his coat dark brown, mane black, and his horn almost red.      "Welcome travelers to the Crystal Empire, I am Prince Sombra. What brings you here?"      "We're just passing through since we never been in other places besides the Everfree Forest." Said Luna.      "I see. And what kind of ponies are you? Never seen one who has both wings and a horn.      "Alicorn is what we are." Said Celestia, "Our mother Elisa brought us to this world."      "Elisa, you say?"      "You know her?"      "This was the first place she made where the crystals that surround this place protect us."      "Protect you?" Said Celestia.      "From what?" Continue Luna.      "Not sure. But we always see a strange pony walking around town checking everything, he even talks to me a few times."      "What did the pony look like." Describing them hearing about a fog like a mane with three horns on their head Luna know who it was, "How long ago was that? Where are they now?"      "You know them personally?"      "TELL US PLEASE!" Luna shouted for a straight answer knowing the village was in danger.      "Luna that's enough, we didn't come here for questioning or concerns."      "But Tia if he has been here he'll probably be going to do something to mom's first creation."      Other ponies began to stare at Luna, Celestia, and Sombra. Sombra saw their eyes glowing no other pony has eyes that glow. His horn started to light up ready to strike. The pony changed into bug-like hybrid attacking them. Others followed surrounding them Celestia shot a wave of magic to keep them away, but they just keep on coming. Sombra saw them not going after him but only Celestia and Luna. He created a barrier of crystals to keep them from attacking some more.      "We need to leave this village it's not safe here." Said Luna.      They heard Sombra scream seeing the crystal wall began to dim and crack open both Celestia and Luna had their wings open as well as their horns glowing. Gue flew at their horns unable to use magic then their hoofs were stuck to the ground.      They saw Sombra weak unable to move. Celestia and Luna try to break free but the gue holding them was too strong, "Try as hard as you like, it won't do you any good." They saw another alicorn having the same appearance as an insect, but she stood out from all the others. Her mane still intact and eyes that had pupils.      "What are you? And what did you do to him?" Demanded Celestia.      "Aww, poor Celestia not knowing what I am when you and her sister should already know since your mom told you all the creators that belong to Ambrose. I am a Changeling who feeds off of love and it appears this one doesn't have much love as you two might have."      Screams were coming from other changelings making the queen stop looking at the left of her direction. A wave of light incinerated most of them with the Queen telling them to retreat. The Queen stayed behind wanting to drain Celestia and Luna, Elisa teleport in front of the Queen to protect them. The Queen saw her for the first time as her coat and mane brighten blinding her hissing to stand her ground.      "You shall not harm my foals, away with you!"      "I'll do anything I can to bring food for the hive." The Queen struck Elisa as she swats away what she had.      "I am a generous and kind pony, but I can also fight if needed."      The Queen attacked again now Elisa broke the Queen's horn along with taking her wings so she wouldn't escape. Celestia and Luna saw how far their mom was going still striking her.      "Mother stop! What are you doing!?" Beg Celestia.      "A creation like this shouldn't exist."      "But what about that family of draconequus?" Said Luna, "They're no different from this creation. You always have an understanding even when it shouldn't be here."      Elisa still had her horn glowing not wanting to let the changeling off the hook after what she did to Elisa's first home. A voice came to her telling her to finish the Queen off but she just stood there as the Queen was now terrified. Elisa finally lets her horn dim telling her to leave before she changed her mind. A wave of dark magic came draining whoever was near it.      It didn't effect Elisa but did Celestia and Luna seeing them about to die. She quickly created a bearer of healing magic doing it the same to other ponies. Ambrose appeared behind the Queen as she was being drained, "Father, what is this you are doing to me?"      He didn't say nothing to her but looked at Elisa, "I was hoping for you to show no mercy to this pony." He put it append himself to finish her by incinerating her body staring at her hoofs and tail. Elisa was shocked by what he would do to his creation all was left was ashes.      "How could you and why?"      "It's how things should be. Never let anything live once you weaken it, I even saw the look in your eyes you wanted to." Looking at Celestia and Luna behind her smiling briefly. Sombra woke up seeing Ambrose attacking him what strength he had still. It hit Ambrose but didn't faze him. Ambrose used his horn in order to brake Sombra's while his mane float to him choking Sombra, "I was going to let you live, but there's no point."      Celestia and Luna try to enter fear, but Elisa wouldn't let them not wanting to lose them. Luna teleported in order to get to Sombra trying to fight Ambrose, "We shall not let you harm any of mother's creation."      The mane let go of Sombra turning to Luna instead, "You are one foolish filly. I like it." Putting his hoof to her face, "Why don't you join me? Both you and your sister of course. I see some great power in both of you, but I also one of you outduel the other."      Celestia teleported to get Luna away from him, "Don't you ever lay a hoof on my little sister!"      "You have done enough." Said Elisa.      "Hum, hum, you can't protect them forever."      "Ambrose, what happened to you? This is not what I remember of you. You help me with my magic along with giving me so much companionship."      "I am meant to do this."      "NO, IT'S NOT! There are other forces who carry the same if not more power you're feeding whatever they are."      "I'm the only pony who is in control. No one can withstand the power I can bring a pond." Stomping his front hoofs a snow storm was created carrying three like horses called the wendigos everything around them became ice in a matter of seconds, "Now let's see if you can save what's left of your first creation."      Elisa felt her mane become frozen along with seeing her hoofs staying attached to the ground she saw the same thing done to Luna, Celestia, and Sombra slowly turning into ice statues. Ambrose was not affected by it as he made a shield to keep his body from being frozen. The ice took its time on Elisa as the wendigos didn't sense anger and dis judgment she then closed her eyes while horn began to glow with seven flowers came out of her mane to create a crown this crown made the ice melt off of her mane, her eyes became white with bright light freeing Luna and Celestia. They looked at each other seeing their appearance change, Celestia's mane was the color of the sunset (orange and yellow) and Luna's white as a cloud. Combining their magic to fight off the wendigos making a force field. It wasn't going to hold for long as Luna and Celestia felt the pain of the force field taking some beats from them.      "Call them off!" Demanding Elisa.      "No. I will not let this type of thing end. This is a permit storm, a former of an ice age."      "I thought you wanted things to be undone!"      "Things change, now you brought two powerful alicorns to this world everything I make will be more destructive."      Elisa couldn't hold her tears back anymore. The friend she once knows was now a monster. She has torn down his shield in order to force him out of the village, but she didn't want to stop there she also wanted to destroy him for this to end. He was now into the snowstorm feeling the ice on him he broke it off as he made his body more warm and different Elisa too stepped into the snowstorm seeing him changing. No longer being a unicorn he turns into a form of an alicorn, two of his horns curled like a dragon's with his unicorn horn staying the same, his front hoofs changed into eagle like talents and grown wings that were shaped like a bat's.      "Ambrose please I beg of you! I don't want to hurt you!"      "That name means nothing to me now. I am now forever called Lazarus, and if you're not with me then I'll force you to be."      The snow stopped frozen in time around them as Lazarus made the snow turn into ice sickles flying tord Elisa. She shields herself with each ice sickles hitting the force field. Elisa teleported behind him trying to cut him off guard, "There's still good inside you. You loved me for the kindness I gave you and the harmony that we both share."      "What harmony? There is no place for that, especially if we're not the only ones who hold this kind of power."      "Power should not outduel or overrule, it suppose to help, create and guide."      "There's also no room for weak, it is better off not existing." He attacked Luna and Celestia's force field causing it to flicker along with their horns about to crack. Elisa tried turning him into stone. It worked for a while until his horn broke through, "Enough of this stalling, either join me or they will perish."      Luna and Celestia were now feeling very weak with Celestia trying to keep her sister from collapsing, "No Luna, mother is counting on us."      "I'm sorry Tia, there just has to be a better way." Celestia looked at Sombra's frozen body along with seeing what's left of the other ponies in the village. An idea came to her opening her wings with her mane spreading like smoke Luna joined her letting the force field be torn down. The wendigos didn't attack seeing the alicorns creating something in a form of a crystal was made a shape of a heart.      Lazarus was intrigued by not seeing the village covered in ice but in orange, yellow, and white mane, "The future never showed me this. No matter, it looks like my work here is done." Elisa stopped attacking with Lazarus spreading his wings flying into the storm.      Elisa teleported to the village as Celestia and Luna's manes went back to normal. The snowstorm stopped, no longer being in the village but not outside of it. The crystal ponies came out of their homes congratulating them with Elisa going to Sombra to unfreeze him along with replacing his horn.      "Thank you, Elisa."      "You should thank these ponies, there is a reason why I brought these two into the world. To be guardians and protectors." Celestia and Luna looked at each other smiling with all the ponies cheering quietness fallen over Elisa with her tears starting to fall, Ambrose now Lazarus torn her heart out because of the path he has chosen. Luna tries to convert her knowing the love she once has with him, Celestia joined, so did Sombra, and the other ponies.      Far away from the village, Lazarus thought so much on Celestia and Luna even seeing Elisa having more power then when they were together. The future wasn't showing him anything on his next attempt, "One way or another, I will make them use all of their power to over roll everything and destroy each other. Even if I have to create something that will make them change." He looked at his own shadow, how it looked like nothing just dark and empty, "Yes, this could work. This creation will be apart of somepony attaching to them as they go insane." black magic came out of his horn making his shadow split into five shadows.      They came out of the ground as shadow ponies and surrounding Lazarus, "We're here to serve you, what are your demands?"      "Host or destroy."
