//------------------------------// // Entry #44 // Story: Human in Pony's clothing // by TheDawsonator1 //------------------------------// This unknown stuff is really getting to me…I have no idea what Tirek will do. All that remains is the battle, I hope Twilight can do it for if we can’t, we are doomed. I have a backup plan still with me just in case it needs to happen… I am currently in Ponyville, Twilight was on her own waiting for Tirek to come, my friends were Celestia-knows where, the Princesses had given up all their power and it was hitting the darkest hour waiting for Tirek to show. Celestia this SUSPENSE IS KILLING ME! SHOW YOUR UGLY MUG YOU HORNED ABOMINATION!! I turned and saw Lord Tirek zooming with Discord, speak of the Cerberus…which means…he’s going after Twilight’s friends and will be equal to Twilight once he betrays Discord! OVER MY DEAD BODY!!! I quickly flied as fast as my wings could take me but the pair were too fast which means I can’t stop it! Maybe if I can just get lucky and they spend too much time talking I can release them somehow. No! I was too Late, All of Twilight’s friends are in the cage and Discord just had his magic sucked out “TIREK!!!” I yelled, getting his attention “It’s about time you joined me here” Tirek said almost in a bored tone as he turned my direction “What have you done with them?” I asked “Me? Not a thing! Unless of course sucking them dry of their magic and about to throw Discord out with the trash counts a thing. Well, does it?” Tirek said evilly “Yes it does, Tirek!” I replied angrily “Whatever, Gavin, you’ve served me well anyway despite any effort to not do so” Tirek said “What do you mean?” I asked “Your knowledge of the show of course, it has helped me to win this time around” Tirek answered “What do you mean “This time around”?” I asked “Well, I am from the future, I am the future Lord Tirek from about 30 minutes into the future, or basically the one you saw in the show” Tirek explained “But I thought Time Travel in Equestria can only work for a few moments then you are automatically sent back to the time you came from” I remembered It’s about time “That was that “Merlin-knockoff”’s attempt at another time travel spell wasn’t it? The same one that fooled my worthless brother into friendship?” Tirek asked “His name was Starswirl the Bearded you magic-stealing abomination” I insulted Tirek “You would be wise not to talk to me in that tone, boy!” Tirek said angrily “Whatever, but how do you know about the show?” I asked “Well when I was about to be hit by their rainbow, I searched for any possible exit strategy as I knew I would lose, I remembered an old Time Travel spell long before that bearded moron thought of making one, it was old and complex and there was but one flaw with it, you can only enter certain points in time. You can exit whenever you like but when you enter you are restricted, the two points in time nearest was just before Season 1 and the just as I started attacking. I picked just before Season 1 to plan my revenge” Tirek explained So Tirek came back just to do this over again? Not too bad. “So if you’d tried Starswirl’s spell, you couldn’t of gotten anything done I assume?” I asked “You are catching on, and I’m sure you are asking “What do I have to do with anything?”? Well simple, while I was back in time, I discovered your world, a world full of humans and I made a most disturbing discovery, one of your kind, Laruen Faust had discovered the events that happened in Equestria following these ponies and I discovered that fact through you, Gavin thanks your group of fans called “Bronies”. I sent you’re here to fulfill that Human In Equestria dream your kind had been going on about and in turn it would ruin the timeline” Tirek explained So I was intended to ruin the timeline! But he failed… “But you failed, Tirek! It didn’t work, Equestria is still safe!” I said “Oh really? Quite a few things have been out of play actually, for starters the Comics were canon but only one ever happened and it was meant to happen when Princess Twilight was not an Alicorn, your actions to save your friends slightly altered the events, even your mere presence was affecting the timeline itself and it has done so enough times to make this an alternate Timeline” Tirek explained more of his plan “But how does affecting the timeline help you?” I asked That doesn’t make any sense at all right now… “You see, while I am from the future and I traveled back in time to where a past self exists, my past self will only get in my way so I disposed of my past self” Tirek explained once more “You WHAT? So if you killed your past self, doesn’t that mean you are erased from history?” I asked “Negative, that’s the whole reason you’re here, to get rid of the possibility of my past self getting in my way, I mean look at me, I wouldn’t trust me! He would do the same!” Tirek explained the alternate timeline “Holy Celestia on a fishstick, that is bucked up! You would kill your past self just for power?” I am literally shocked I am actually shocked, somepony would kill themselves just to advance their position, even if it’s the same version of him just in an Alternate Timeline but still HOLY CELESTIA!! “Typical, you heroes don’t even understand what you must do if you are to take over the world, you have to make sacrifices and if killing a past version of myself is what it takes than I would gladly do it! That’s why you are weak, Gavin! You had a chance to make Equestria’s life better before I came and you stood there and did NOTHING! Face it, Gavin, the whole reason Equestria will fall today will be because of YOU!” Tirek taunted “SHUT UP! I don’t want to hear any of your foul poison words! We will win, and we’ll make sure you never hurt anypony again!” I retorted “So you say, but in case you haven’t noticed, right now you’re weak as a little baby!” Tirek shot back “Not when Friendship is our side” I said “Oh again with the friendship speech! Seriously, those ponies won to dumb luck alone and today and I am going to prove it by destroying you and going back to the main timeline and taking it over like I should of the FIRST time!” Tirek rolled his eyes “You don’t like friendships speeches do you? You should really try it you know, fills the hole in your heart for all your failures in life, you get to smile, you have satisfaction in life of looking out your friends and such. Why, the magic of friendship is something to be embraced rather than ignored! Your brother realized that and he found joy in that, you too can do the same” I replied “ENOUGH! YOUR EXISTENCE AND YOUR FRIENDSHIP SPEECHES HAVE LIVED LONG ENOUGH!” Tirek roared Tirek charged energy aiming directly at me! Oh….BUCK! Well this time it’s nice knowing you all. BLAST!! Uh…why aren’t I feeling the cold embrace of death? “Tirek!” An angry female voice said in front of me I opened my eyes and it seems Twilight has arrived! And she deflected the beam at the mountains beyond. About Celestia-damned time! What is it with heroes arriving right at the last second? That’s not to say I’m not grateful or anything. “Ah, Princess Twilight, about time you join us” Tirek turned to Twilight “I heard the whole story, Tirek, I cannot believe you would do something so selfish and disturbing as killing your past self just to gain power and you know I won’t let you get away with your evil plans” Twilight spoke with venom towards Tirek “Pfft, just let’s see you try!” Tirek said Tirek then charged a beam but not at Twilight but at the Library in which Twilight in an instant saved her owl from death and teleported back out. Twilight then got angry and sent a large beam at Tirek which he blocked this time but sent him back, hooves sliding against the ground a bit. Twilight then punched Tirek in the face so hard that Hasbro censored it as Tirek crashed directly into a hill. The Battle has started…
