Chapter 4: Everything Changes Part 2: End of Harmony

-Ponyville General: 2 Hours Later-

The rest of the Mane 6, Sunset, Starlight, Trixie and Zecora were all sitting down outside the Emergency Room of Ponyville General, anxiously waiting for the doctors and nurses to come out and deliver the news. All of them were praying to whatever deities were out there that Pinkie Pie would be alright.

Rainbow Dash was the most distraught, flying back and forth (the pegasus version of pacing), the worry almost permanently etched into her face.

Twilight finally asked "Rainbow, could you please-?"

"No, I can't calm down" she snapped. "How can I calm down when one of my best friends got dosed in a potions mixture while getting struck by lightning, and is currently getting looked over by doctors to see if she'll live?" She then looked right into Twilight's eyes and asked "How can I calm down when there's a chance that-"

"She'll be fine" Fluttershy cut in.

"Yeah, she's been through worse" Applejack added.

At that moment the doctor walked through the door, seeing the nine of them looking at him. He sighed and said "She's comatose. As far as we can tell she's stable, but..."

"But what" Sunset asked.

"Well, she IS breathing. But our monitors can't pick up her heart rate."

That got a collective "HUH?!" from the group, so the doctor led them into the room.

Pinkie Pie had been put in a hospital gown with one of the sheets thrown over her, her head the only thing they saw. A breathing mask had been placed over her muzzle, and they could tell from how the mask fogged that she was breathing.

But her heart monitor was showing a flat green line, which would only happen if the pony in question had passed on into the next life.

Applejack looked at the doctor and asked "You sure this fancy gizmo ain't busted?"

"That 'fancy gizmo' was installed a week ago, and it's been working fine since then."

Fluttershy immediately put her ear to Pinkie's chest. She then said "H-her heart is beating. B-but it's... abnormally fast."

"So, her heart is beating so fast that the monitor can't pick it up" Rarity stated. "Is such a thing even possible?"

Twilight looked at Pinkie, then to the others, and said "Honestly, after I went through the mirror to the Human World, impossible became a very loose term."

Zecora sighed and slumped against the wall. "This is all my fault."

Everypony immediately assured her it wasn't, that Pinkie Pie would have likely gone back regardless.

Rainbow was the first to ask an obvious question. "Why aren't you rhyming?"

Chuckling, Zecora replied "I like poetry. A bit too much if you ask my family. But that doesn't mean I always rhyme. Indeed, it's only half the time."

"And, she's back."

Twilight then looked at her and asked "What potions were in that crate?"

"Most were potions designed to enhance the body and the mind. I made them after Chrysalis swarmed Ponyville, in case we'd need an edge. But one potion, was the one you took when the Plundervines came."

"The one that let me see all the way back to when Celestia and Luna turned Discord to stone."

"Indeed. But... The strangest thing; when the bolt struck the potion, I swear parts of it started to glow."

That got everypony's attention. "I thought that potion could only glow and work it you added Alicorn magic to it" Applejack asked.

"That's true" Zecora replied. "Because only an alicorn could contain the necessary amount of magic to activate it. But that bolt of lightning did, so perhaps within it magic hid."

Twilight's face immediately turned white as a ghost. "Oh no" she muttered.

Being a former student of Princess Celestia, Sunset Shimmer came to the same conclusion. "Twilight, you don't really think-" Sunset began, only for Twilight to cut her off.

"Let's just wait until Princess Celestia and Princess Luna get back. Hopefully, they'll have the answers for what happened."

"Where are they anyway" Starlight asked.

As if to answer her question, a bright flash of golden light appeared before them, momentarily blinding them.

Once it died down, it revealed none other than a battered and bruised Princess Celestia...

...who was carrying the unconscious form of her sister, Princess Luna.

And to the shock and horror of all who saw, Princess Luna now bore two horrifying black burn marks where her wings were.

Or rather, where her wings USED to be.

Fortunately the doctor overcame his shock first, calling in a bunch of his coworkers. "Get her to the ER, stat! Lock down the entire wing, nopony allowed in except those who the Princess OKs is allowed."

Once she was wheeled away, Princess Celestia looked to Twilight. "Is everypony okay?"

Twilight briefly explained what happened, ending at what happened to Pinkie Pie. "That bolt of lightning contained magic equal to that of an Alicorn" she finished. "Otherwise the potion wouldn't have worked. The only thing I can think of that could possible cause that, along with the massive rainbow lightshow we had, could only suggest one thing." She then looked up at Celestia with a pleading look and whispered "Please, tell me it's not true."

For several moments, Celestia stood there, silent as the grave. Her face refused to reveal any emotion, until finally she spoke.

"The Tree of Harmony was destroyed."

The silence that permeated the room was as thick as a fog. Finally Twilight found her voice. "How" she asked.

Celestia sighed as she looked at the doors of the ER. "It seems our brother is far stronger than he was back then. We were outmatched, and he nearly killed Luna."

"And..." Rarity couldn't find the words to form the sentence.

"He didn't destroy it" Celestia said, looking down.

"Then who destroyed the tree" Rainbow asked.

Sighing, Celestia began "After you left, we teleported to the Cave..."

-Earlier that Day: Cave of the Tree of Harmony-

Celestia and Luna appeared outside of the cave in a flash of light. Luna looked to her sister and asked "Sister, why not teleport us straight inside?"

"For all we know, Void could have set up a trap that would activate if we teleported straight inside" Celestia replied. "Rushing into a situation headfirst-"

"-is rushing in brains last" Luna finished. "One of Starswirl's favorite sayings."

Nodding, Celestia led the way inside.

Once they were inside, they immediately found Void standing in front of the Tree of Harmony, gazing up at the crystal structure. Without turning around, he said "I knew you two would be the ones to face me." He turned around to face them, and began undoing the straps of his cloak. "Just as I planned."

"You truly have fallen, brother" Luna stated.

"This coming from the one who became a dark alicorn bent on bringing forth eternal night?"

Glaring, Celestia said "I had hoped you would have learned the error of your ways in 2500 years. It seems I was too optimistic."

Void chuckled. "No, you're just incredibly naïve. Glad to see some things haven't changed." His horn glowed black and his cloak floated off of him, revealing dark blue armor on his chest and shoulders, as well as armored greaves on all four legs. "But I have." His horn glowed, magic surrounding the blindfold around eye, as it began to rise from his face...

...and both of them could see that his eyes were now bright red within red, and seemed to glow with dark magic.

Both Luna and Celestia looked at each other with surprise. "What magic helped you see again" Celestia asked.

Void laughed, before replying with "The kind that allows me to do... THIS!"

And with that, beams of crimson energy shot out of his eyes towards them. Celestia immediately stepped in front of Luna, projecting a shield of golden magic. The beams struck the shield, which immediately cracked and shattered, though it served its purposed in stopping the beams. Void smirked and said "Dear sister, when was the last time you used your magic in a fight? You're clearly out of practice." He chuckled, then added "Then again, you never were much of a fight-."

His sentence was cut off by a blast of white magic slamming into his chest, not hurting him but interrupting his sentence. He looked to see Luna hovering in midair, her horn glowing. "And yet, you still seem to be quite the fighter, little Luna."

"I'm not little anymore, Void" Luna replied.

"True." Void smirked. "But still, even with both of you working together, you are no match for me. As it was then, so it is now. And this time, neither of you can use the Elements of Harmony."

"Be that as it may, we are still the Princesses of Equestria" Celestia stated, her voice unwavering. "It is our duty to protect all who call this place home from the dark, the chaotic, and the fallen."

"You can try. But in 2500 years, I have not been idle."

THWACK!

Before they could even react Void had somehow moved faster than either of them could track, and slammed his right hoof into Celestia's chest. The force of his punch was so hard that Celestia was knocked back to the far wall of the cave, slamming into it, hard. Void then shot a magic blast from his horn, which struck the ceiling and buried Celestia under some rather large boulders. Angered by this, Luna sent a magic blast at him that struck him hard on the chest. But to her shock, it did next to nothing. He simply smirked and sent a blast of black magic of her, which she dodged before shooting a flurry of blasts in retaliation. Void simply allowed them to strike him, again doing nothing. "Oh Luna, is that the best you have" he asked mockingly.

Luna glared and her horn glowed, and a magical aura surrounded the rocks and stalagmites on the ground. They then rose and surrounded Void, before slamming into him simultaneously...

...just as Luna unleashed a massive beam of magic the purest white. It slammed Void into the ground, kicking up a massive cloud of dust and a huge flash. Panting, Luna landed on the ground, never taking her eyes off the spot where Void had been standing. The dust cloud began to settle...

...and Void walked out of it without a single scratch. Even his armor didn't have a speck of dust on it. Luna was in shock at this. The only word she could utter was "How?"

Void suddenly appeared in front of her. "Because I have transcended the limits of mortal ponies." He then punched her in the face, knocking her to the ground, before lifting her up in a telekinetic grip. "In doing so, I was reborn, as a god." He then held up his right hoof, which began to glow black. "And none shall stand against god."

He pressed his glowing hoof on Luna's forehead, and immediately she screamed in pain, streams of white magic flowing into his hoof and his eyes glowing the same color. Luna tried to summon up the magic for a blast, but she quickly realized what he was doing. "My magic-!"

"-is now mine, dear sister" Void finished. "And I must say, the magic of the Moon? A little warmer than I imagined." He then looked at Luna's wings, and his mouth curled into a sadistic smile. "I don't believe you'll be needing these anymore." His eyes glowed, and twin beams shot from his eyes again. But somehow, they bent at perfect 90 degree angles and shot above Luna's head. They then moved, bending at curving, until they finally hit home.

As they struck the part where Luna's wings connected to her back the area was filled with a blinding blood-red glow; and all that could be heard were the horrendous, ear-splitting screams of Princess Luna.

Once it was done Void dropped the now wingless Luna to the ground, the remains of her wings nothing but ash around her. Void then turned to Celestia, who had dug herself out from the boulders just in time to see her little sister fall to the ground, and sneered. "A pity. But I suppose you can't make an omelet without breaking a few eggs."

Deep within Celestia, something snapped. Her eyes began glowing bright blue-white, while her body began to glow and overflow with golden light. The light began to grow so bright that Void found himself having to shield his eyes.

"VOOOOOIIIIDDDDDD!!!!!"

Before he could move he was immediately knocked off of his hooves by Celestia, who hit him with a high-speed flying tackle. She then followed up with a right hook across his face, followed by a left jab into the unarmored portion of his torso, right in his stomach. Her whole body glowed with magic and power, and Void could feel the strength and power behind each strike. "You've finally stopped holding back, sister" he commented. However with practiced ease he blocked her next punch with his hoof, before slamming his forehead into hers and stunning her. He then followed up by lifting her by her throat and socking her in the stomach, knocking the wind out of her, and throwing her to the ground.

Rising to her hooves Celestia growled and shot a powerful beam of golden magic, but again Void simply tanked it and emerged unscathed. But then she noticed he was smiling. "How can you smile" she asked.

Void's reply was simple. "Because, dear sister, I've just won."

Lines of red magic began appearing around the area, surrounding and then crawling up through the branches of the Tree of Harmony, surrounding the Elements themselves. Void smiled and asked "Did you really think I spent all my time simply discovering new magic to fight with? That I spent 2 and a half millennia ONLY training to beat you and Luna? In those years, I have studied the Tree of Harmony, the Elements, and the Light and Darkness of Equestria extensively." He smiled as the ground began to shake.

Two streams of magic began flowing into the tree; one was white and gold and the other was the darkest black. "What is this, Void" Celestia asked.

Void turned to look at the Tree, and replied "Making my vision of the future to a reality. The Tree of Harmony is now a magnet, drawing the Light and the Dark together. Soon enough the old world will die, and a new world of True Harmony shall be born."

The ground shaking began to grow into a full-on earthquake; outside the sky began to darken, with thunder and lightning striking through the sky. Knowing that if she didn't stop this that Equestria would be destroyed, Celestia realized there was only one thing to do. "Starswirl" she muttered under her breath. "Forgive me."

Focusing as much magic as she could into one attack, she fired it into the Tree, striking the Element of Magic dead-center. Seeing this, Void growled and asked "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?"

"Stopping you, brother."

The cave lit up with rainbow light. And with arguably the loudest BOOM ever heard, the Tree of Harmony shattered, a massive column of rainbow light shooting up into the sky and merging with the storm. As Void watched as his masterpiece became a massive lightshow, Celestia charged.

And as Void turned to face her, Celestia struck with her right hoof, smashing him in the face and knocking him into the rainbow light. As the magic seemingly began to tear him apart, he bellowed "THIS IS NOT THE END, CELESTIA! I WILL RETURN! EVERYTHING YOU'VE BUILT WILL FALL! AND FROM IT'S ASHES, I SHALL BUILD A BETTER ONEEEEEE!!!!"

Finally, he disappeared, as did the rainbow light. All that was left were a few small shards of crystal, and the two princesses. The Tree, the Elements, it was all gone.

Slinging Luna over her shoulders and whispered "Please be alright, Luna."

And she teleported away...

-Present Time-

"...and here we are."

Nopony said anything for a long time. Finally, Fluttershy asked "So, what do we do now?"

Celestia sighed. "I... don't know."

Author's Note:

Hey guys, sorry it took so long to get this chapter done. It's hard writing action scenes for Celestia and Luna is kinda hard since we don't see them fight that much. Save for Celestia getting curb-stomped by Queen Chrysalis.

Also, if you haven't figured it out yet by his use of the famous Omega Beams, my OC-Pony Void is this story's version of the greatest evil in the DC Universe: DARKSEID!

Now, some people may ask why I didn't use Tirek for this.
A) He's being used to portray another villain. Who? That's a secret.
B) He didn't really strike me as the same level of evil as Darkseid. Darkseid wants to conquer all that lives by using the Anti-Life equation to rid the universe of free will, using the equation to control the thoughts and emotions of all living things.
Tirek, on the other hoof, wanted to take over Equestria by absorbing all the magic in Equestria because... Ummm... :rainbowhuh:
Somebody want to explain that part to me? I didn't get it and I watched the episode.

Also, for all the talk about him, and as much as I like him and his design, at the end of the day he's just another monster.
Celestia built Tirek up as this ancient demon, this monster that could destroy all of Equestria, an apocalyptic juggernaut...!
And he was evenly matched by a newly minted Alicorn Princess who borrowed magic from three Alicorns with more experience, and was then defeated by six ponies using the power from the Equestrian version of the Infinity Stones.
IN TWO EPISODES.
Darkseid on the other hand?
He is the leader of the planet Apokolips. Has entire legions of monsters and alien horrors at his disposal. And while he rarely takes part in a battle, when he does he is a force to be reckoned with, able to stand against the entirety of the Justice League and bring Kryptonians like Superman to their knees.
Villains claim to be gods, but usually fall flat in the long run. Darkseid, he can back up those claims.
That being said, he's not invincible. Which is why in the final part of their fight Celestia managed to get the drop on him.

Void's powers and abilities are mostly the same as Darkseid's, as I was constantly checking the Wikipedia page for Darkseid while writing this. Link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darkseid

Okay, so Pinkie is Flash.... and I'm GUESSING Luna is going to be Cyborg? Let's see, who else do we need? I won't put it past Daring Do to find the pony world equivilent of Themyscira. Batmare can probably be a member of the Rich family. Supermare would need to be an OC, and Aquamare can be Skystar. Boom Justice League completed.

So I'm guessing the plan is for at least each of the main 6 to become an analog for a DC hero. Pinkie is The Flash which works, course Dash is usually the Flash analog but I have seen her work well as both Superman and Batman but honestly between the 2 she fits better with Superman. Though honestly I have no clue who is gonna be who.

Course obviously it won't line up perfectly with Justice League after all it's not like they can have a Martian Manhunter... although Sunset does have experience changing forms in order to fit in on an alien world and she already has empathic powers that allow her to read minds so with a little power boost she might work.

9001965

9002043

I'm going to keep the Superman and Batman analogs a secret, for now. But trust me, they will be surprising. Well, Superman anyway. And I plan to leave Aquamare for a later time as I already have the first iteration of the Justice League set out. And here they are:

Pinkie Pie will be the Flash, frankly because if I were going to make Rainbow Dash the Flash I'd have this set in the Equestria Girls universe. Pony version of Rainbow Dash can reach Mach 10 with the Sonic Rainboom. She's fast enough as it is.

Rainbow Dash will actually be Equestria's first ever Green Lantern. Of all the Mane 6, I find her to have the necessary courage and willpower for the job.

Applejack will be the analog for Wonder Woman (or Wonder Mare) and I had a plan for her and Daring Do to find a map that belonged to AJ's mother that led to Themyscira. Since Applejack bore the Element of Honesty and many fans consider Wonder Woman to be DC's Spirit of Truth, it's actually pretty fitting in my mind.

I actually have Thorax planned out as the Martian Manhunter (or Changeling Hunter) since he can already shapeshift. The Tree of Harmony's destruction basically has the same effect as the Particle Accelerator in the CW Flash series, so it'll also give him telepathic and telekinetic abilities.

And last but not least, we have a certain mare from the Crystal Empire as the analog for Green Arrow. Well, she's just going to be called the Arrow and her outfit will be pink, but you get the idea. This version will be more based of Stephen Amell's portrayal of the character from the CW Arrow series, but she won't be killing other ponies unless there's no other option.

I have ideas for other characters, but I'll keep those under wraps for now.

9002551
Cadence as the Arrow? Hmmm, makes sense, I guess. Though you'll need to have backstory for her to become that at some point in time. Also, Applejack being WonderMare, while it makes sense character-wise, I'll need some more conniving on the backstory.

9002551
Excited to see who Supermare and Batmare are, my prediction is Twilight is Supermare, because alicorn is OP, and Batmare is Starlight, 'cause I feel it makes the most sense. Dash as Green Lantern? Nice. And Martian Manhunter is Thorax? Makes sense. I'm excited for what's to come!

9002847
I'm fine tuning the backstory as we speak, but I got most of it down.
Basically, she gets kidnapped by members of her own royal guard (who aren't Changelings) and taken to an uncharted island far from the Crystal Empire. She then has her Alicorn magic drained, for reasons I'll keep quiet, and after a failed escape attempt her captors put her through several horrifying tortures, one of which involves cutting off her wings.
She eventually escapes and spends the next two years surviving against her captors and whatever horrors are on the island with nothing but a bow an arrows, until she manages to escape a la signal fire.

At that point in the story crime rates have gone up all over Equestria, and the Crystal Empire is no exception. So naturally, she decides to use her newfound skills to take them down. And thus she becomes... the Arrow.

9002854
Uh, no and no. I actually haven't gotten Twilight an analog yet, mostly because I haven't really found a DC Hero she matches up with. That and I'm fairly certain she doesn't come from another planet.

And no, Starlight will not be Batmare. Though she will be part of my cast for MLP/DC: Legends of Tomorrow. SPOILER!

9004253
So, she spends two years in hell, not five?

9004264
Yay! I love Legends of Tomorrow! are you going to adapt Season 1, or will you be skipping that?

9007684
Fair enough. Will Vibe be worked in at some point to team up with Pinkie?

9004429
I do plan to adapt Season 1, though I will be changing some of the plot elements and trying to cut out some of the moments that I thought were stupid or cringe-worthy. Like most fanfic writers.
But I'm having a hard time picking out who will analog Kendra and Carter (Hawkgirl and Hawkman). And some of the other characters, like White Canary. As for a few of the heroes, I'll leave that for another day.
Though I will say I found a hero for Twilight Sparkle to analog, and they're part of this team.

And without a doubt, King Sombra (though a very different one, as you shall see) will be our Vandal Savage. And this scene will be in it!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WIjlO_yw7WE

9007784
OMG, I love that line! Will Starlight and Trixie be the Snart and Heatwave analogs?

9007784
I can help with that!

I would say that Discord and FLuttershy would make for a good Hawk couple, if you're a Fluttercord shipper.

And for White Canary... well, you need her to die at some point. and have a close tie to Cadence, since she's the Green Arrow analog. If Starlight weren't Captain Cold, I'd use her, but if not Starlight, I'd say Twilight. Since Shining Armor is obviously going to be a Laurel analog now, it'd make sense that Twilight is the Sara analog, since they're siblings. Then Sunburst can be Felicity and Flash Sentry can be Diggle.

Thoughts?

9007863
Uh, no. I actually plan to have an OC-Pony for Captain Cold and an OC-Griffon for Heatwave. Mainly because I don't really think Trixie or Starlight are pyromaniacs.

9009949
What about Fluttershy and Discord for the Hawk couple?

9007881
Oh, boy. I forgot to mention but this isn't going to be a play-by-play of the shows themselves, so certain plot elements won't be showing up or be the same. I plan to work in some of the comics, some of the various movies (not including the Joel Schumaker suck-fests) So not everything in Arrow, Flash, Supergirl, and Legends of Tomorrow will be the same in this story.

For Discord and Fluttershy? Possible, but not likely. It would take a lot of explaining for how an immortal spirit of Disharmony can die but I can make it work.
The problem is that they've known each other for quite a while by this point in the story. I'm pretty sure Discord would have remembered their past lives by now. And if that were the case, he would do almost everything possible to protect her, not sell her out to Tirek. I may ship them in my Top 10, but I don't think they would fit in this case.

For the White Canary part? I could actually make Starlight Glimmer as White Canary. It would actually tie into a plot element since I plan to write Sunburst as the analog for Malcom Merlyn, aka the Magician. Yeah, in my story his parents were murdered in Canterlot and nopony seemed to care since they were poor, which drove him to the League of Assassins to take his revenge on Canterlot. Starlight tries to stop him, but he's too far gone and he puts three arrows in her, which would be a reference to Sara. I'd need to work out more of the story, but thanks for the idea.

But to clarify, and spoil, things...
I actually plan to make Twilight merge with Sunset to make the Firestorm analog, Magistorm, after they try to recreate the Elements of Harmony using advanced technomagic they created. And no, neither of them will die like Ronnie or Professor Stein.

Shining Armor would actually be John Diggle/Spartan in this case, because he has the military experience and because he and Cadance are already married, so we don't need a Felicity Smoak character. Personally, I don't like her, mainly because I ship Oliver and Laurel.

Flash Sentry was either going to be James Olsen/Guardian or Roy Harper/Arsenal. Still flexible on that one.

Trixie, I don't know who she'll be. Someone who uses magic.

And I plan to make a certain glasses-wearing unicorn mare the analog for Ray Palmer/Atom. Hint: She studied with Twilight and I hinted at it in chapter 1. (cough*Moondance Enterprises*cough)

Oh, and thanks for the Watch.

9009981
I actually just finished typing in the response for that.

9010000
Twilight and Sunset as Firestorm? Part of the reason why they worked so well in the comics was because of not only age difference, but also levels in magic intellect. What about Sunset and Starswirl? Now THAT'd be good.

9010000
And as far as Discord and Fluttershy goes, well, we need a ship in the show that's like, OG. Hmmmm. OH! A younger Bright Mac and Pear Butter!! They both died just after Apple Bloom, and there was never a canon explanation to what they died from. Say they were reborn directly after that, and if enough time has passed, they can be the Hawk Couple.

9010000
And Sunburst and Starlight are friends. Malcolm needs to be someone older in the show. What about Night Light? That way you can have Twilight and Shining go through a similar arc Thea did in Arrow.

9010000
Sunburst needs to be a character that's book smart. He could be Vibe, since The Atom and Firestorm are taken. Or maybe he can be like a Winn Schott character for Supermare? I can actually see a lot of Winn in Sunburst. Or perhaps even Rip Hunter? I could see him passing on the Waverider analog to Starlight. That'd make sense.

9009949
If you still need an OC for Captain Cold, I could offer mine up. He's, like, my FAVORITE Arrowverse character.

9010019
BRILLIANT!

And that could tie into Applejack becoming Wonder Mare. Pear Butter and Bright Mac were worried that Sombra might come for thier children, so they left the map just in case. Pear Butter herself went there in a past life to learn how to fight Sombra, which didn't end well, obviously, so the Amazons would recognize Applejack as her daughter and be more willing to train her. Thank you.

9010051
Hold up. Remember, only one of them remembers their past lives at first. I'd say Bright Mac remembers from the beginning, and Pear Butter only regains them later on once Bright Mac finds her again.

9010013
Yeah, that actually works better. But she'll have to be the 2nd Firestorm then.

And maybe instead I'll make Twilight Ray Palmer/the Atom? Actually that works better, again.

I'm definitely giving you credit for these ideas when I get around to writing them. Thank you.

9010057
Yeah, I think Twilight is definitely Ray Palmer-esque, because she's VERY nerdy like he is.

9010057
Maybe Moondancer could be the Nate Heywood/Steel analog someday??

9007768
Yeah. But I'm not sure who. Any ideas?

9010068
Cheese Sandwich? Double Diamond? Time Turner?

9010070
Cheese Sandwich: Too much like Pinkie.

Double Diamond: Not sure.

Time Turner: Not what I'm looking for. Besides, he'll have a role to play in LoT.

I need a pony who can be fun-loving, sarcastic, but can also be smart, serious and handle themselves in a fight (when we get to that.)

What about Vinyl Scratch? She's already been a vampire-pony in fimfics, so why not a meta-pony?

9010079
I think it’d be funnier if she were a Constantine analog, eh?

9010054
I know.

What I mean is shortly after Applebloom is born, Pear Butter and Bright Mac, both with their past lives remembered, discuss what would happen if King Sombra got it in his head that killing their kids would extend his life. Pear remembers Themyscira, and says she'll leave the map for Applejack. Shortly after that, they leave to try and lead King Sombra away from the farm, which works. They fight, but you know the story by now.

9010060
Thank you.

And yeah, Moondancer as Nate/Steel. Gonna have to keep that in mind.

9010085
I'm, fuzzy on Constantine.

Worst comes to worst, I'll make an OC-Pony for Cisco/Vibe. As it is I have to make an OC-Pony for Jaimie Reyes/Blue Beetle.

9010095
True dat. Speaking of OC, did you see my comment about Captain Cold?

9010137
Sweet. Give you details in a min. Thoughts on my ideas for Night Light and Sunburst?

9010136
His name is Beck, which we can lengthen to Beckham Snart to solidify the connection. I can change it ti make it more Captain Cold-y if you like. I would say he's basically like Leonard Smart on The Flash. Cares for his family, very sarcastic, but isn't ashamed about being a villain. Has fun with it, like Smart does.

9010033
Actually, Rip Hunter would probably be the better pick. I can then write that he didn't go to some school to learn magic, like in the show, but instead trained to be a Time Master like Rip Hunter did.

9012084
What if the Magic School thing was a cover?

9010028
That... does make sense.
Night Light is married, and the death of his wife could drive Night Light to join the League of Assassins just like Malcom.

This could also make Shining Armor more open to the idea of his wife becoming the Arrow, since he knows that the law is flawed and sometimes it lets the bad guys escape justice.

And hey, it could push Twilight to build the ATOM armor. Though at the same time, I am going to have to think of a plot reason as to why she would NEED the armor. I don't think an Alicorn Princess is going to need hi-tech battle armor.

Unless, she somehow wasn't an Alicorn anymore...

I like him already. What does he look like?

Eeyup. And Sunburst couldn't tell Starlight, for obvious reasons. How could he tell her that he was training to be a time-traveling cop?

Well, think of the motivations Ray had when he built the Atom suit. Maybe, after seeing all her other friends grow to become heroes, Twilight simply wants to do that too. She wants to be a hero too and uses her brain to accomplish such.

See the pony in my profile pic? That's him. Though we can give him a blue overcoat, like the one Smart wears on the show, and maybe throw in some goggles for when he uses the Cold gun. Although, if I can, I wouldn't mind possibly writing a few lines for him, if you'll allow that. I can probably help elaborate on his backstory, which can be a mix of the Captain Cold mythos mixed in with my own backstory I have had for him since his creation.

Exactly. Plus, imagine the feels that could happen when Sunburst passes on the role of Captain to Starlight.
