Omake G5: A New Generation (and it sucks)

Malrick laughed.

Hard.

It's pretty normal for Malrick to laugh at the misfortune of others, but this was a special case since there was nothing that caused him to laugh in the first place.

As Malrick fell on the floor rolling around while cackling madly, both Celestia and Trevor watched this with surprise and concern.

"Welp, he broke," Trevor dryly remarked.

"Is this... normal for him?" Celestia inquired.

"Nope, I have never seen this happen in my three years of living with him," Trevor said. You would think that Trevor would be looking at Malrick in worry but after dealing with Malrick for so many years, he kinda built up an immunity towards Malrick's randomness.

"Err... Malrick, are you okay?" Celestia asked in concern and worry.

"Hehe, oh man, I-ha, had the funniest *snerk*, thought."

"Which was...?" Trevor asked.

"So Cellophane Wrap, you know how a long time ago all the ponies were racist but then they stopped being racist and became all united and crap?"

"Ummm, yes?" Celestia replied. She could only assume that "Cellophane Wrap" was the nickname that was bestowed upon her by Malrick since Malrick rarely ever called anybody by their actual names.

"Well, I just thought of something really funny and stupid."

"Go on..."

"So imagine in the future, and I mean WAY in the future, Earth ponies, Pegasi, and Unicorns suddenly become racist again just... because. No outside threats or influences, they just became racist again even after over a thousand years of peace. And to add insult to injury, they hate each other so much that magic just... isn't. Magic in the world where 'friendship is magic' doesn't exist no more since their racism apparently makes all magic in Equestria go bye-bye."

"... Malrick... that's..."

"Insane," Trevor stated.

"Well, I was going to say 'highly unlikely' but yes, that too."

Malrick was about to say something, but then he held back, "You know what? You guys are probably right. Even for me that thought is pretty out there... Yeah, I really don't see something like that happening anytime at all..."

"Why am I always right with things that don't involve schoolwork?"

Malrick had a heavy scowl on his face as he looked down from the clouds. Not much has changed about him from the last time you saw him. The only two notable changes were that he was more glowy and had a halo of grey, jagged shards of blood-stained metal floating on his head (which was also glowy because apparently ALL divine beings are shiny, yes that is a universal constant). Malrick also had some 3-D glasses on, a bag of popcorn on his left and a large cup of soda on his right while sitting on a leather recliner.

"You know Dad, it's not like I enjoy you being right since it usually hurts us in some way," Trevor replied.

Trevor was much older as he looked like he was in his late 20s. His brown hair was still wavy and his skin was still tanned, but he looked more focused and relaxed in an odd way. He still had his trademark brown cap, but he instead wore a breastplate with silk arm and leg guards. Like Malrick, he had a spellbook and a sword that was light gray and blue instead of black and red. Trevor's halo was the basic ring of light, but it was instead colored a light silver and glowed softly.

Celestia meanwhile had both of her hooves on her face and looked like she was going to explode any minute now. She looked the same, just without the royal regalia. There on top her head (which had multiple veins visible) was another halo, but this one shone with brilliant sunlight and was larger than both Malrick's and Trevor's halos.

"I had to banish my sister for a thousand and years and rule by myself in that time, then I had to train an autistic, anti-social pony as my student so that she and her friends can HOPEFULLY bring my sister back, then they had to learn about friendship in Ponyville for years while also stopping villain attacks like Discord, Queen Chrysilis, Tirek, Sombra, Cozy Glow, Storm King, and others I haven't mentioned, then they built a school of friendship and united all of the races of Equus and THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS THE MOMENT WE ARE ALL GONE!?" Celestia screamed out near the end. She was so mad that her mane became a huge blaze of flame.

Trevor patted her back (while also tying to avoid her flaming mane) in order to try and calm her down.

"Celestia, why are ponies like this? They are racist, and then aren't racist, and then are racist again and since I've been around your kind for long enough I know they are going to sing some song and become not racist again," Malrick complained, "I mean, can't they be consistent? At least humans are relatively consistent when being racist."

"Didn't you say a few days ago that basically most, if not all humans are racist?" Trevor asked.

"I stand by what I said."

They all shared a chuckle at that and continued watching an orange pony and her escapades. Her name was... Sunspot? Sun Flower...? It was Sun-something, Malrick was pretty sure of it.

"Man remembering names is hard," Malrick thought, "I really need to do better at that. Fluttershy hates it when I forget someone's name and replace it with a stupid (but hilarious) nickname... I think I gave Twilight over eighty-thousand different nicknames. To make new ones, I had to make them in different languages and I'm on my forty-sixth. Wait, Twilight..."

"Oh man, I just had another funny thought," Malrick said out loud.

"Oh boy, what is it this time?" Trevor said with an amused smirk.

"Remember when Twilight got better feets and two flappy things alongside the bone-cone on her forehead?"

"When she became an alicorn? How could I forget?" Celestia said with a smile.

"What if that happened again? What if, after all this time without an alicorn princess, another one just spawns in. That orange pony down there just becomes one. And for gicks and kiggles, I won't feel a wave of otherworldly anger like I did when Twilight became princess for basically no reason."

About eighty minutes later...

"Fuck my afterlife."
