//------------------------------// // Vision // Story: My little Chrysalis: the Loss of a Curse // by Fire Angel //------------------------------// (Celestia's POV) I walked through the forest. I didn't know why, but I knew I had to. As I was walking, I heard someone talking. I followed the sound and saw someone that I had hoped never to see again. He walked around a fire in the clearing. "How did she defeat me?", he asked himself. He kept walking around the blaze for a few moments, before stopping abruptly, and looking back towards the fire. "Of course. She is "The Goddess of the Sun", making her the second most powerful force in this world, with the first being that boy. Maybe I can use her..." My eyes widened as I realized he meant me. Then, the world faded away, and I woke up. "What was that?", I thought. I got up and headed towards my mirror. "I can't let anyone know about this." "I already know, sister." I jumped, and turned to see Luna standing behind me. "LUNA! What are you doing here?!" "Don't hide it from me. I know what you saw." I looked down and away from Luna. "Please, don't tell him." I glanced back up to see her rubbing her chin with a hoof. "You're right. I wont, for this must be kept secret." I smiled, lifting my head back up. "Thank you." We went back to bed, and got ourselves some more sleep. *** The next morning, I got up, raised the sun, and got ready for a long day of ponies complaining about every little thing. I made my way to the dining hall for some breakfast, and was surprised to see Jonathon and Chrysalis already there with Luna. Jonathon looked over and saw me. "Hey, Celestia. We thought we'd come by for breakfast with you." I gave a weak smile and nodded. "Thank you", I said. I must have sounded different, because Jonathon looked at me with worry. "Are you alright?", he asked. "You sound like you have something on your mind." I chuckled, continuing to hold my forced smile. "Don't worry, I'm fine. Just had a strange dream last night is all. Nothing more." He looked at me questioningly, and opened his mouth to say something, but stopped and decided to drop it. "Ok. Well, lets eat." We got our food and had a small conversation. We talked about Jonathon losing his curse, but then getting those scythes. "Well, my God allowed me to come back, but the Devil had already taken my curse, so he had given me these scythes in order to kill him. Or, at least banish him back to hell." "I see", I said, biting off another piece from my slice of toast. We finished our breakfast shortly after, and Jonathon and Chrysalis left. I looked over at Luna. "Thank you for not telling him about the vision." "It's ok, sister. I don't want him getting hurt." (Chrysalis' POV) I lifted my ear from the door to the dining hall and thought about what I just heard. "Vision?", I whispered. "Vision of what?" I heard Dad call my name, so I got up and ran over to him. "Where were you," he asked, slightly concerned. "Dad, come on. It's me. I'm everywhere." He chuckled and ran his fingers through my mane. "I know, Sweetie." We left the castle and went back home. "I need to ask Luna about this vision tonight," I thought to myself. We got home, went inside, and waited for Luna. She came in about an hour later, and we talked about what to do next. "Hey", Dad began. "How about we go visit a friend?" "Who?," Luna asked. "Well, he's on Earth, but it shouldn't be too hard to find him." "Well", Luna said. "I should be able to take us there. Hang on." She closed her eyes, and after a minute, her horn began to glow. "Ready when you are", she said. "Lets go then." There was a flash, and when I opened my eyes again, we were in dad's old house. We looked around and saw that everything was the same. "Hey, dad?" "Yes, Honey?" "If everything looks the same, and nothing seems too old, maybe time hasn't passed very fast. Maybe our friends are still alive." "You've got a point. Well, you want to go around and check?" "Yes!", I replied excitedly, jumping up and down. "Well, Luna, you are going to meet a couple of friends of mine." We walked out the door and looked around. "How about we teleport?", I suggested. "Do you remember what their houses look like?" I nodded and charged a teleportation spell. There was a 'pop', and we were standing outside Connor's house. "You two hide. I'll get him." He walked up to the door and knocked. After a few minutes, the door opened. "Hey, Connor! How've you been?" Connor's eyes widened, and he rubbed them to make sure he wasn't dreaming. "Jon? Is that you man?" "Have I been gone that long?" "IT IS YOU, BRO!!! Dude, you've been missing for almost a thousand years!" "Well, yeah, but... Wait, what do you mean 'a thousand years'?" "You've been gone, literally, a thousand years." "Then how are you still here?" Connor must have realized what he said, and covered his mouth. "Shit. I didn't mean to say that." (Jonathon's POV) I drew my scythes and put them up to Connors throat. "What are you?", I asked. "Dude! Calm down! I don't want to hurt you!" "Tell me who and what you are!" His form shimmered and then, standing there, covered from head-to-toe in black fur, was a wolf. "I'm cursed, just like you." I backed up, putting my scythes away. "Nice. At least you're a wolf; I was a fucking humanoid dragon!" "Was?" "Yeah. The one who gave me the curse took it back, and now I have these scythes to kill him with." "Was it the Devil?" "Yes, and I take it you've met him." He growled in response. "Met him? He cursed me!" "Well, would you like to help us kill him?" "Yes I wo- Wait, us?" "Oh, right. I forgot about that. Chrysalis, Luna! Come on out!" They walked out, and Connors jaw dropped. "I-is that..." Luna walked up to him and looked at him. "Pleasure to meet you", she said. "Oh my god! Dude! This is Princess Luna!" "Yes, I know. Calm down, man." "Oh. Right. Well, it's nice to meet you princess." Luna chuckled. "No need for formalities. Any friend of my husband is a friend of mine." Connor looked at her, then me, then back to Luna. "Your......husband?" I walked up to him. "Yes. Is there a problem?" "NO WAY, MAN!!!! THAT'S AWESOME!!!!" I chuckled, scratching Luna behind the ear. "Well, you still haven't answered my question: Do you want to come with us?" "Yes, I'd love to help." "Good."
