It's been a few months since my little adventure in an alternate universe, and nothing big and bad has happened in a while. The most recent important event was the Show Stoppers, which was terrible, but I went just to support the CMC. But now, the mane six and I are sitting in the Golden Oaks library, watching as Twilight opened a package. Well, it was a chest, not a package, and the chest was heavily locked. Sure, it looked like it had one physical lock, but that one lock had every locking magic known to ponies, and to the entire cosmic community. It's the kind of protection I would put on something, and Celestia doesn't even know of most of those locks.
"Well, what are you waiting for sugarcube? Open it!" AJ prompted.
"I don't know Applejack. What if this chest houses some ancient evil that the Princess wants us to stop?" Twilight responded nervously, which caused Rainbow to groan, and I just sighed. 'This explains the reason why we're all wearing our elements.'
"And what if it's a test? Maybe Celestia's testing you, wanting to see if you'll take the consequences for opening the chest." I then shook my head. "Or maybe this is one test you want to fail."
Feeling challenged, Twilight quickly opened the chest, using the key she was given along with a note that said to not let anyone else use whatever is in the chest. The second the chest was opened, a bright light emerged from it, nearly blinding all of us. When the light died down, I heard Twilight scream in joy. The chest was filled to the brim with books. Spell books. "Oh my Celestia! Look at all these books!" Twilight picked one up with her magic, bringing it to her face, as she quickly flipped through it's pages. "Let's try this one!" Her horn glowed, and she fired a spell at me.
When the spell hit, I felt myself almost imploding, as I was sent through the fabric of space and time.
(Most of) The ponies watched in horror, as Connor was seemingly killed by a spell from Twilight. Twilight, not caring, had a huge smile on her face because of the power of the spell. Rainbow Dash was the first to speak up. "Twi! I think you killed Connor!"
Twilight, who wasn't caring what just happened, only heard Rainbow Dash say her name. "I know! Isn't it great! Who knows what this spell does!"
The ponies just looked at her in shock. "Twilight! How can you not care for what you just did!" Applejack exclaimed.
"I care very much! Who knows what new sciences we could discover!" The ponies all sighed at the reaction of Twilight before looking at where their friend last stood.
I opened my eyes, to see myself be thrown out of a portal high in the sky. I sighed, hoping to get a chance to punish Twilight when I get back. I looked over to where Ponyville should be, to see nothing. "Where's Ponyville?" Instead, the closest thing I saw to Ponyville, was a rather active castle in the Everfree. Redirecting my fall to bring me near the ruins, I noticed something on the ground with my super vision. It looked like two ponies backing away from one of the most chaotic creatures I've ever seen. Narrowing my eyes, I prepared for my attack, as I sped up to the ground.
"Come on Tia! Mom and dad said we shouldn't be out without them!" The young filly alicorn said to her older sister.
The older one sighed, before responding. "But don't you want to know what's out there? Why mom and dad try to lock us up in the castle?" She turned around about to look at her sister, before she took a few steps back. Behind the younger sister, was a monster. The monster was so chaotic, that it never had one appearance at once. One second it looked more like a chimera, another second it was a blob of darkness. "Luna! Look out!" The older sister said to the younger, who turned around, before running over to her big sister.
"Tia! What is that?!" The younger sister said in fear.
"I don't know Luna. But stay close. I'll try to stop it." The older sister's horn glowed with yellow magic, before she fired her spell at the beast. The beast was seemingly unhurt by the blast of magic. The older sister gulped, fearing for her life.
Her face of fear quickly changed when she heard a whistling sound, that got much louder. Before long, something slammed into the ground with a loud bang. When the dust cleared, a figure was standing there, it's body was surrounded with purple energy. It put it's forehoof out towards the other monster, before speaking.
I quickly landed on the ground, and stood between the two fillies and the monster. Feeling the familiar energies of the two Equestrian princesses behind me, I knew I had to make sure they don't think I'm a threat. I put arm out towards the monster, and spoke. "Halt monster. You shall not harm these two fillies." The monster let out a deep chuckle, clearly not thinking me as a threat. "It appears you don't know who I am. I am the defender of the universe. The defender of children! Defender of harmony! If you think you can so much as touch these two, you have another thing coming."
It chuckled again, before going to swipe me with it's long arms. I heard the fillies gasp, before I caught the arm with ease. I saw the surprised look on the monster's face, before I took my left hand, and fired a powerful cosmic blast at the monster, pushing it back and letting go of it's arm. When it recovered, it quickly charged at me. Sighing, I fired a quick blast of light energy at it, destroying it.
I turned around, to see the scared faces of the two fillies. I crouched down, to make me seem like less of a threat. "Relax. I don't want to hurt either of you. In fact, hurting either of you goes against my moral code." Now that the monster was gone, I got a better look at the two fillies. They looked rather familiar, but I couldn't put my finger on it. They were both an alicorn. The older one was white, with a pink mane and tail. The younger one was clearly Luna, because she looked about the exact same as the Luna I knew, just with a different mane style. 'I must be in the past.' I took a look at the filly who must be Celestia. 'Far in the past.'
The two fillies were still looking at me in fear, but I noticed Celestia was about to work up the courage to walk over to me. She stopped, when a loud yell was heard behind me. "STAY AWAY FROM THEM FOUL DEMON!" I stood up, and turned around, getting in a defensive pose to protect the two sisters. What I saw when I turned around, was two older alicorn (or would it be alicorns? What is the plural for alicorn?). I could tell that they were Celestia and Luna's parents just by looking at them. They're both hard to describe, as if they were just small fragments of energy for bigger bodies. The smallest of details I could get from them, was that the mother looked almost like she was nature, and the father looked like the night sky, with stars and all. 'Kinda reminds me of my alicorn form. Except mine's a cosmic purple, not dark blue.'
"I take it these are your children?" I said in a calm tone. Both parents started charging up their horns. But to their surprise, I started walking away from the field.
"Where do you think you're going monster!" The father yelled. I sighed, and turned around.
"Well, I successfully protected your daughters from a chaotic demon, and now that they are reunited with their parents, my work is complete." I was about to turn around again, but I heard a loud screech.
"YOU HURT THEM YOU MONSTER!" The mother yelled. Using my powers, I determined that she thought I hurt them, because of the very small cut on Celestia's face, caused by Celestia almost accidentally walking into a thorny bush, but was stopped by Luna, before she went too far. 'I'm like Batman when it comes to my detective skills.' The mother, getting angry slammed her hooves into the ground, sending a powerful controlled earthquake at me.
Seeing this coming, I sigh, deciding to show her to not mess with me. Quickly raising my right hand to the sky, I yelled out the word to summon the form the Greeks mistook me for when several Connor's helped them out a long time ago. "GAEA!" I saw the surprised looks on the parents' faces as a light struck me. When the light cleared, my body was much more earthy. I looked like I was made of dirt, and the dirt that made up my body looked like metal dust trying to get to a magnet.
I stopped the controlled earthquake heading for me, before fixing the ground it destroyed. Before the mother could do another attack, a bunch of flowers quickly grew underneath her, and their pollen put the mother to sleep. The flowers quickly disappeared, and the father ran over to his wife. I walk back over to them, before putting my hands over the fillies, and healed their wounds with a bright light from my hands.
I looked over at the concerned father, who was looking at me, his eyes asking me what I'm about to do. "I don't mean harm to anyone. I protected your children from a monster. If you attack me, I will attack back. But if you ever need help, I'll be there." My eyes quickly moved over to his wife. "She will be awake in an hour. She will have no negative effects from the flowers. I recommend not trying to attack people without good reason." After telling him that, I turned back to normal, and ran into the forest.
After escaping from the castle again, I quickly made my way through the forest, heading in the direction that the strange monkey went. After about half an hour, I heard some talking, and recognized its voice. I speed up, arriving at the edge of the clearing. I saw the creature sitting on a boulder, and doing something to its forehoof. It looked like its grey forehoof was opened up, and the other forehoof was doing something inside of it. But the most peculiar thing, was that it seemed to be talking to itself.
"Let's try this one!" It said, speaking in a lighter voice. "Now thanks a lot Twilight! I'm in the freakin' past." It spoke in its normal voice. Building up the courage, I walked forward, into the clearing, and the creature quickly stopped, and noticed me.
Seeing it stare at me, surprised, I decided to speak first. "Ummm... Hello?"
"What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be with your parents?" He said in a calm and caring voice. Now I could tell he was definitely a male from his voice.
"I wanted to thank you." I stammered. He just raised an eyebrow. "If you didn't come along when you did, my sister and I might have been food for that monster."
"You're welcome." He said, his voice quickly turning depressed, as he went back to work on his forehoof.
Curious about this strange creature, I sat down, and just watched him. After a few more minutes, of me just watching him, I decided to introduce myself. I walked up closer to the boulder he was on, and lifted my forehoof. "My name's Celestia Sol Dawnbringer, what's yours?"
He jumped off the boulder, before shaking my hoof with one of his. "Connor Smitty Ican."
I was about to ask what he is, before a loud explosion was heard in the distance. "What was that?!" I asked, worried.
Connor looked in the direction the explosion came from, before his face paled. "It came from the castle."
Panicking, I started running back to the castle, hoping my family is alright. Before I could make it out of the clearing, Connor picked me up, and we quickly flew back to the castle.
We got to the castle entrance, and I put Celestia down. I pushed open the broken doors, and Celestia and I started walking to where her family is. After about a minute, we arrived outside the throne room, and heard talking. I sighed, recognizing a voice in the room.
Celestia noticed my face, and quietly asked. "What's happening in there?"
Looking at her worried face, I gave a fake smirk, before replying. "Chaos. Chaos is happening." Taking a step back, I kicked the door down, before spawning a phaser from Star Trek, and pointing it at the god of chaos.
"Well, what do we have here?" Discord asked when he saw me. I noticed Celestia's parents and Luna were each trapped in separate cages made of chaos energy.
"Try anything funny Q, and you'll be in a world of hurt." I said, which caused Discord to laugh.
"Try your best Galactus." He taunted, somehow knowing my dislike of that insult. 'I hate being called that loser. Galactus has practically no power. Any true cosmic being can beat him.
"Shut up de Lancie." I reply, as I fire blast from the phaser. Discord yawned, and summoned a mirror, which reflected the blast back at me. I slap the blast into a wall, and despawned the phaser.
"That all you got Big Bang?" I flinched at that insult. 'Ouch.'
"There's more where that came from Loki." I reply, as I charged my fists with cosmic energy.
"Well, I'd like to see..." Discord was cut off.
"JUST SHUT UP AND FIGHT!" We both looked over at Celestia's mother, who just yelled at us.
"Hey!" Discord and I yelled at the same time. "We're allowed to have friendly battle banter!" We both turn to look at each other again, and I charged forward, and jumped, sending a lightning fast cosmic punch at Discord's face. But to my surprise, he didn't take any damage.
"What the?" I asked myself when I landed on the ground, and dodged Discord's attacks. 'The only one I know who could take my cosmic punch, and not take damage was Murphy. I know Discord isn't Murphy. The only reason it doesn't work on Murphy is because we have the same type of cosmic energy. That's why I electrify my punches to do damage to Murphy. And he used fiery and explosive punches. So the only way Discord would be able to avoid taking...'
I was snapped out of my thoughts as I felt a finger tap my head, and then I felt my personality start draining.
