"What should we call him?"
"Not sure, well he has a beautiful red coat"
"Certainly didn't get it from me"
"Must be you then"
"How about, Firestorm?"
"Are you sure?"
"Yes Pastor"
"I now pronounce this child, Prince Firestorm of Equestria!"
Mum...
"Is that my sister mom?"
"It is, do you want to say hello to her?"
"Hello little sister"
"Her name is Celestia"
"Hello Celestia"
Tia...
"And they all lived happily ever after"
"Thank you brother, you do know how to read stories"
"Thank you lulu, you sleep well now"
"Night Firestorm"
Lulu...
"Ha! I beat you!"
"You love to rub it in don't you steel?"
"You know me!"
"Can we play something else?"
"Just coz you lost?"
"You winning bores me..."
Fenir...
"Look dad! I got my cutie mark!"
"That's great storm!"
"It looks odd though"
"I still love you, your cutie mark doesn't change what I think of you"
"Thanks pa"
Dad...
"Twi,Is she a waitress here?"
"She started last week, she normally works at the observatory, but she needed an extra few bits coming in, she's a star sketcher, hence her cutie mark"
"I've heard about sketchers, only a few pegasi still know how to do it, it's a fine art started by a royal artist for princess Luna"
"Nice history lesson stormy"
Twilight...
"Ugh, damn, I needed that, oh hey rainbow, how long have I been out for?"
"Four days stormy, I've stayed here most days."
"That was a wonderful kindness you did rainbow, I appreciate acts like that from ponies like you"
"You did the same to me, I felt it only fitting, you have done nothing but helped us since we met you in the countryside, thank you for all that you've done firestorm"
Rainbow...
"Oh, Hello your highness, sorry, come in"
"you all set flutter?"
"Angel, you gonna behave yourself while Fluttershy's away?"
"Great, let's go then"
Flutter...
"I think we need to arrange another party, right?"
"You needn't ask!"
"Ha, trust you to always have one ready pinkie"
"You know me!"
Pinkie...
"Here, a shard from the frozen heart, I think it will make a great piece"
"Oh Firestorm, it's simply delightful, what should I use it for?"
"How about you crack it, and put this, here, and that, there"
"You really have an aptitude for fashion firestorm you know that"
"Never used to, guess having a friend in fashion helps"
"Oh Firestorm dear, you flatter me"
Rarity...
"That's a mighty fine kick you got there, for a bigwig"
"Hey, AJ, I may be royalty, but I certainly know how to fight"
"And don't we know it"
"What's that mean?"
"Well your not exactly the type I'd expect to be getting his hoofs dirty"
"Is that an insult?"
"Just an observation, he he"
Applejack...
"Did you feel the same way?"
"I guess so, I didn't want to tell you because it's a bad time"
"Atlantis, the world will end at my call, now is as good a time as any"
"I feel silly now"
Atlantis...
Omega stood in a black room, watching his life, from beginning, to the present. Then Chronos, the Chronicler, joined him.
"Seeing your life just before you pass on Omega?"
"Yeah, it's been a fun ride"
"When I say move on, your gonna be crystallised..."
"What do you mean?"
"Eternal stone is your seal for eternity, such is the cost for using the most powerful tool of the Firstborns"
"Makes sense"
"However, you can be released"
"How?"
"If your true love touches your crystal prison, you will be released"
"Of course..."
"Well, that's all the help I can give you Omega, good luck out there"
"I'm gonna need it"
"Definately, that armor gets very sweaty in cramped conditions"
"Brilliant"
Back to before it all began:
(Why can't I move? I've got a real itch, and this armour really doesn't help, oh yeah, I used eternity didn't I? I'm now stuck here till Atlantis finds me)
Everypony was in the throne room, the elements of harmony lay on the floor, all of them knew what'd happened, Atlantis was nowhere to be seen.
"Where are we? Is this canterlots throne room?"
"The better question to ask is when are we?"
"Better yet, what's the big crystal doing in the middle of the throne room?" pinkie asked, as they looked at the golden crystal that now stood in the middle of the throne room.
"Omega is in there!"
"Who's omega?" The royal siblings asked as they came through the door, the elements bowed, as did they. Celestia walked up to the crystal, and ran her hoof down it.
"Omega, is the doombringer your highness" Twilight said, still an Alicorn, a cruel reminder of what she'd done.
"And your brother Firestorm" Rainbow informed the sisters.
"We should've sealed him away again"
"He's already succeeded" Twilight stated again, all eyes turned to her.
"What do you mean student?"
"In a different timeline, You and Luna, are killed, by a powerful unicorn, who controls equestria with an iron hoof for two years, it would've been longer, hadn't Firestorm taken up the Elements of Eternity and killed her, by wiping her from time, and winding the annals of history backwards to this point, a day before it all began. I also play a part in equestria's control, as I kill Fenir, and Cloudsdale's overseer, Slipstream Turbo" She hung her head down in shame. Celestia then clapped her hoofs and two guards came and bound the Alicorn by chains.
"Twilight Sparkle, I commend you for your honesty, however you seem to speak the truth, so I must arrest you for high treason, however you shall not face execution, your sentence will be up to be up to the high council to deal" she waved her hoof and she was sent off to the dungeons, she then turned to the other five elements
"I'll make sure they go easy on her"
"She was corrupted by the evil Alicorn, so she had no idea what she was doing" AJ said. They all then turned to the crystallised Omega.
"How do we release him?" Fluttershy asked
"I don't know..." Luna sighed
"The least we can do is this..." Celestia said. As she lifted the crystal up...
