Asura's POV:

Finally... After all of the fighting and needless killing, his daughter was free, and he no longer felt rage. He was listening his daughter lecturing him about being too rash and always being hotheaded. But when the time came for Asura to leave, he brushed his daughters cheeks and said... "No more crying..." His daughter raised her gaze to her fathers face, it was smiling. "...smile."

When Asura saw that his daughter was no longer crying, he knew it was a good time to leave.

[Insert timeskip here]

"..." Asura wasn't sure if he was alive or dead, so to find out an anwser he tried opening his eyes. "W-What...?" He heard what he thought was birds chirping, and saw around him flowers in multiple colours. "Wasn't i supposed to be dead?" With many questions inside his head he began to explore his surroundings. For the first time of his life... he felt at peace. Something he never would've believed possible when alive.

His train of thought was suddenly stopped when he heard children screaming "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH!!" It didn't take long for him to know what was going on, there were children in danger! He started sprinting towards the sound of screaming when he saw something he didn't expect to see: three coloured small horses were backs/flanks to a tree when a pack of wood like dogs surrounding them.

CMC's POV:

"Scootaloo we should turn back... I'm scared." A white unicorn said to an orange pegasus "Relax Sweetie Bell, what's the worst that could..." A yellow earth pony suddenly stuffed his hoof to the pegasus' mouth "Don't ya go sayin' that! You KNOW that when someone says that they get to trouble!"

Suddenly they heard a growl. "Sorry girls, that was me..." The white uncorn said while sheepily smiling. The others sighed from relief when they heard that it was Sweetie Bells stomach... until they heard another growl. Sweetie Bell quickly exclaimed "That wasn't me..." Appleboom was the next one to be suspected. "It wasn't me ah Pinkie swear!" Next was the orange pegasus. "Me neither..." Then all three of the started shivering and sweating when they heard a new growl, accompanied with may other one's.

All of them slowly turned around when they were greeted by multiple pairs of glowing eyes. They all backed away slowly until they stepped on a branch. The timberwolves reacted immediatly when the little fillies started running while screaming. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH!!" They all stopped as soon as they were running as the wolves started surrounding them, the fillies were backing off slowly as the wolves came closer. Their retrat stopped to a tree when they knew it was over.

Until a stallions voice was heard "HEY, JOKES OF NATURE!" Both groups looked at the source of the voice and both were equally suprised. In front of them was a weird ape-like creature with colden gauntlets that were shining in the sun. "I suppose that you have no good intentions to these girls, so here are your options: either run away and never show your ugly mugs to me, or perish like everyone else who has encountered my wrath!"

3rd person POV:

The wood like creatures had almost no idea what this creature was or where it came from. But one thing was clear, it was interrupting their meal. their target changed from the fillies to the new creatures. He suddenly jumped between the CMC's and the timberwolves.

The CMC's watched in awe as the creature standed in front of them, now they had the ability to completely see what was the creature looked like: His head had white and spiky hair and his eyes were glowing white. It had weird carvings all over his body and they felt warmth pulsating from him since they were near. His Lower body was covered by some kind of cloth that was red and blue in colour and it had flame like markings, sometimes coloured red and sometimes blue.

"This is you last warning..." Asura was starting to eminate red flames from his body while the gauntlets were glowing and the carvings were starting to flow with orange fluid like motion. The timberwolves were definetly scared of him now, but none of them backed away. When the earth started cracking the wolves became distressed, and the Cutie Mark Crusaders were so afraid that the couldn't move "...back off or suffer the consequences!"

After the show of might the wolves started running to the woods, squealing and howling in defeat and horror. Asura started calming down and remembered the small ponies. They were scared of him and almost started running when a soft but harsh sound spoke... "Don't worry i will not hurt you. They all looked up at the creature as he offered his hand.

"Wh-who a-are you?" Asura smiled warmly "My name is Asura."

Asura's POV:

"W-well thank you fer savin' us Mr. Asurah." Appleboom thanked. "Don't metion it. By the way, why are you in such a dangerous forest?" All three of the fillies smiled sheepily until one of them spoke. "Well... my name is Scootaloo, and these are my friends: Sweetie Bell and Applebloom" Asura looked at the two other other fillies. "And together we are..." They all shouted together "THE CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS!!" This is cute... and loud. "But this doesn't anwser my question, why are you here?" They all looked at each other at disbelief. "You don't know what a cutie mark is?" I shook my head and said "We don't have them fromwhere i come from". These ponies are very strange... but i don't mind it, at least they're safe. "They show ponies their talents and what they're good at. It also tells what the pony is like. For example if a pony has glasses on their flanks, it means that they like reading, or they can see very well." I nodded in understanding matter. I looked at the sky and saw that the sun was setting. "We should propably leave, the forest could be more dangerous at night." All the fillies were suddenly very scared of something. "What's wrong?" One of the fillies pointed their hoove behind Asura, when he turned around, he saw what he thought it was, a snake-like crature with four heads.

"Oh boy..."

3rd person POV:

Asura wasn't sure what this creature was called, but it reminded him about a certain gohma. It had one head and it had a spiky turtle like shell... Yes... now he remembers...

It was when he fought to save that girls village. And now it was back to haunt his memories. "Girls! Run away from here! This place is not safe!" The fillies were unsure at first, but then they started to run towards the village to warn everyone.

Now it was just him, and the monster. "I don't know what is your name creature, but i do know one thing..." Asura started to burn red flames again. "...you seek to destroy, don't you?" The Hydra was now fully concentrated to the demigod.

Then, suddenly... "AND THERE'S NO NEED FOR THE LIKES OF YOU!!!" Asura's terrifying aura was now taller than the Hydra, and it suddenly bursted when he started running towards the creature.

The Hydra noted this and attacked first. It threw one of it's heads towards Asura, which he dodged effortlessly. Then it tried to stomp Asura, when to its suprise, he was carrying it's whole weight. Asura thought this was a nice warmup for his attack. So he put his plan in motion. He threw the Hydra towards the sky, and grew 2 more pairs of arms.

He then jumped after the Hydra, which was now completely suprised. Asura was aware of this creatures state of mind and smirked.

"Say your prayers monster..." He then threw a barrage of fists towards the Hydras face(s). So fast that the normal eye could only hope to see. "HRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!!!!!!!" He punched the creatures face(s) beyond recognition, where you would see teeth, you could now see pools of blood and broken bone. Where you could see a face, was now a broken skull. Asura stopped his attack to use the final move. He called upon his matra, hoping for the best.

"GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH!!!!!"


(Sorry for the quality)

He had now grown giant gauntlets of gold and proceeded to finish this fight, that was until... "PLEASE STOOOOOP!!!"

A yellow pegasus with a pink mane was now right in front of his giant fist. time seemed to slow down as Asura quickly guided his fist away from the pony. He was about to ask why he stood in front of the creature when she started yelling to him "Why did you hurt him so badly?!" 'Him?' Asura thought.

"It's ok Quad, it's ok, the bad creature won't hurt you anymore..." The pony started crying now. Asura had no idea what was going on, but he knew that he had made someone cry... and that's what he hated the most. "I... I'm sorry, i didn't know he was your friend." She didn't look at him first, Asura continued... "And this is one thing I hate the most..." The pegasus looked at Asura confused "...I made someone cry. I do not expect you to forgive me, but do know this..." Asura kneeled in front of the pegasus "... I'm sorry"

Asura's POV

This isn't something to be forgiven, or that i would expect to be. "A-apology accepted." I felt a wave of relief go through me, until... "GET AWAY FROM HER!!!" I felt something hit me in the back, it didn't do as much as make me stumble, and it didn't hurt me either. I looked behind me and saw a cyan horse with wings and a rainbow coloured mane hold his hoofs in pain.

"Ow ow ow ow ow... how hard is that guy?" I heard her mutter something about a steel plated tree wich confused me more. "Ummm..." I seemed to have caught her attention when she suddenly got between me and the yellow pegasus. "Stay away from Fluttershy you monster!" "U-um... Rainbow Dash I-it's fine he..." "Don't worry Flutters, I'll keep ya safe."

Now that i had learned their names i thought it was my turn "Excuse me, my name is Asura, and I didn't even mean harm to her. I was fighting that creature behind you two..." The pony who was called Rainbow Dash turned around just to see my handy work in front of him. "YOU TOOK OUT A HYDRA?!"

Fluttershys POV:

Rainbow Dash shouted at the bipedal creature as if almost killing quad was cool. I was scared of Asura at first, but when he apologized, I felt that he was a good... um... I don't know what he is, maybe i should ask what he is.

"Ummm... Could you tell me what species you are, if it's ok with you..." The creature turned to me and he said "I am what you would call a human, but I'm more like a demigod." We both froze as we heard that word. "A de-demigod?!" We both were very suprised to hear that this cre... I mean human was royalty.

We both were about to bow down until he used his... gauntlets to stop us both. "Do not bow down to me, I despise being warshipped." He said it gently, but there was power behind his words. "We should leave... it's getting dark."

3rd person POV:

Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash were discussing where Asura should live before he would be presented to the public, where as Asura would be looking very cautious... as if he was always expecting something.

Both mares looked at Asura as they noticed this. "Mr. Asura? Are you alright?" Fluttershy asked him "What? Did you say something?" Both mares looked at each other when shrugging. Asura wasn't sure if it was anything important, but quickly shrugged it off and focused back on keeping guard.

Asura's POV:

We got to the edge of the forest and the pegasus' waved each other a goodbye. Fluttershy motioned to follow her.

"Me and RD decided that you should stay in my hut until we can present you to the public." I smirked before I said... "Or we could wait for the chance for me to play hero." She giggled at that before opening the door.

What i found inside was something i didn't expect: there were multiple animals inside, dogs, cats, mice, birds, snakes etc.

"I have the feeling that you're bonded with animals." I said as I petted a few cats and dogs. "Well, my cutie mark says that I'm good with animals." I admired her ability to help all kinds of animals, she even tried to help that creature called 'Hydra'.

I frowned slightly as I remembered what I had done to her friend."*Yawn* Well... I'm going to sleep now, good night Mr. Asura." "Please, just call me Asura, and good night to you too."

Meanwhile at Canterlot

"Do you feel that sister?" A dark blue alicorn asked. "Yes I did, it seems to have taken residence in Fluttershy's hut." The white alicorn anwsered. Both sisters nodded at each other when they teleported in front of her hut. "Are you ready Luna?" The white one asked. "Are you Celestia?" The blue one playfully asked.

"This is not a game dear sister, we don't know what this being is capable of, but it has an evil aura inside it." Celestia scoffed at Luna. "I know, forgive me Celestia." Both princesses took a fighting stance as the door was surrounded by a pale blue aura.

Asura's POV:

I was keeping company with Fluttershy's night animals (A/N: sorry, i don't know the proper term for night animals, so to put it short: my english grammar sucks). But when I decided to get some sleep, I felt two powerful beings on the other side of the door.

"Who's there?" I heard no anwser. Instead i was greeted by two powerful mantra blasts. (A/N. Asura is no longer in his mantra form OR varja Asura mode.)

"GAH!!" These blast were different, they DID hurt, but they didn't damage me. It stunned me for a moment. I was going to stand up until i felt myself being levitated by a blue mantra field, which I dispersed with ease.

"Why did you attack me?" I asked before looking at my enemies. They were what looked like a hybrid between a pegasus and a unicorn. They were different in look

The smaller one had a dark blue fur and a mane that flowed unnaturally and looked like a night sky.

The bigger one had snow white fur and had a mane flowing the same way as the other one. But this one had a rainbow coloured mane which had sparkles coming out of it.

"Please forgive my sister, she always was more... 'shoot first, ask later' type of pony." The white one explained her sisters actions, which the blue one was now ashamed of.

"I forgive you. Now how about we present each other instead of attacking on sight?" I replied with a smug smirk. The white one was first to anwser. "I am Princess Celestia, co-ruler of equestria, and the godess of the day and sun." "And i am Princess Luna, also a co-ruler of equestria, and the godess of the moon and the night."

They're both deities? "My name is Asura. I am one of the eight guardian generals of shinkoku, and also the god of wrath." They seemed amazed that i was a deity. "Now would you mind explaining why i am in your interests?" Luna seemed to be again shamed for her actions.

I started to walk towards her and put my hand under her chin to let her see my face. "I told you that I forgive you didn't I?" I smiled and she smiled too. "I understand that you're ashamed. But don't worry, I'll get equal with you... at some point..."

I winked at Celestia which was now snickering under her hoof. "What do you mean by that?" Luna asked me. "...You'll see."

"What's going..." We all turned our heads to see Fluttershy coming downstairs all sleepy and adorable... Adorable? Am I growing clingy to these equines? "...o-on?" He bowed to the princesses quicker than the eye could see "W-welcome to my hut princesses! Can I h-help you somehow?"

"No thank you, we came here to see your new friend." She turned to look at me and saw the burn marks on my stomach, I was wiping them away until Flutters dashed to me and went crazy worried much to everyones suprise.

"Oh my god, you're hurt!! W-we need to get you help!! I d-don't know how i should help you and..." I put a finger on her muzzle and she eeped. "I'm fine Fluttershy, you don't need to worry. The mantra blast did hurt me, but it didn't damage me. I see that you hate being unable to help someone, or something."

She nodded and backed away. "What do you mean by 'mantra' blast?" I looked at the princesses and they looked confused. "In my world, the source of my power is called mantra. They are prayers from mortals and sometimes... even their souls can be turned in to mantra..." The princesses had a face of fear on them.

"You didn't use these souls right?" The little pegasus asked... with tears flowing down her cheeks. I put on sad face. "If I said no I would be lying... But I didn't use any souls for my own power, my rage was simply so great that i was able to self-sustain my mantra."

Everyone in the room had a sad face. "Princesses, I would like to tell you my whole story. But if there're any other important ponies that should hear it, you're welcome to invite them."

Twilights POV:

"Twilight we've been over this, you don't need to be so stressed!" "Stressed? STRESSED?! I'm not stressed, I'm terrified! What if something bad is going on?! What if the elements of harmony are gone?! What if the changelings are attacking again?! What if..." "TWILIGHT SPARKLE!!!! CALM DOWN!!!" Spike yelled at my ear and i felt them ring for a moment.

"I know you must be freaking out, but maybe they just want to talk, or have a nice cup of tea. Besides, if it was an emergency, they would've said so in the letter." Spike always knew how to calm me down, afterall, he's my #1* (*number one) assistant. "Thank you Spike." I hugged him. "Anytime."

"Well I better be going, you're in charge of the library, tell me anything you need since i'll be with the princesses." I went outside and saw the chariots waiting for me. "Are you ready Twilight Sparkle?" A royal guard asked. "Yes I am."

He took me to the chariot and saw all of my friends waiting me there:

Applejack, the element of honesty, and a proud apple bucker of Sweet Apple Acres.

Pinkie Pie, the element of laughter and the happiest pony in all of Equestria.

Rarity, the element of generosity, and Equestrias greatest fashionista.

Rainbow Dash, the element of loyalty, and the fastes flier in of Equestria.

And finally, Fluttershy, the element of kindness, and the bravest pony in my books.

"Hey there Twilight, what took ya so long?" I blushed lightly and said. "Well... I had one of those breakdowns where I think too much... again..." All of my friends laughed. "Say Twilight, do you know any reason why the princesses could call us so late?" I saw Dash and Flutters looking at each other before saying together. "We do."

"Well spit it out then!" Pinkie said with her evermost glee. "W-well we found a creature in the forest that was like nothing I've ever seen..." Something that Fluttershy hasn't seen? Now i'm very interested... "H-he said that he was a god." "A GOD?!" A new god?! In Equestria?!

[Insert inconvinient timeskip here. Why? Because i can :moustache:]

We were discussing about what he would look like, and apparently this god called Asura asked Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash to not tell us what he looked like. So we decided to play guessing game, first we asked if he was an alicorn, which he was not. Then later on we decided to leave it there since we were close to the castle.

When we landed everyone was tired. Most of us were tired because of the length of the flight, and others were tired before the trip. "Ugh! I look absolutely hideous! I can't show myself to them in this shape!" Rarity whined. "C'mon goldy lox, get over your mane and understand that the princesses don't care what you look like." Applejack said.

"Besides, if one of those no-good gold flanks come note on you, I'll beat them up." Rarity seemed more confident but there were still some bad looks from the crowd. "Let's go girls."

3rd person POV

The mane six were clopping (NOT THAT CLOPPING, YOU PERVERTS) past Canterlot streets to the throne room. "Are you the elements of harmony?" A guard asked. The six nodded. "Follow me please." The girls obliged. As soon as they were in the throne room, they saw the princesses sitting on their thrones.

"So nice to see you again my dear subjects." All of the elements bowed. "No need to do that since you're all my dear friends." Pinkie Pie jumped in front of the princesses. "Where'sthenewgod,Iwan'ttogivehimthewlcometoEquestrianewgodofanotheuniverseparty!" "She was quickly pulled back by a purple coloured magic.

"S-sorry, guess i'm a little excited about this new god." He grinned and blushed lightly as she backed away, Celestia giggled at Pinkie's everlasting excitement. "I understand."

The group went to the dining hall to meet this new god. "Asura? Are you here?" There were heavy steps before Asura became visible to the other four ponies. "Girls, I'd like you to meet Asura. From planet Gaia, the god of wrath."
