CHAPTER EIGHTEEN: Tythol and Lace Danneggiato

“Send him here.”

“Yes father.”

Meanwhile...

I had went shopping for a present for Peter as I had received his letter only a day ago. I felt myself being teleported and gasped when I appeared in a lightly lit room. Torches mounted the walls and a large stone tablet was lain out in front of me, carved with sketches of what looked like Luna, Celestia, Horus, and what I guessed to be Isiset. Above them was a larger alicorn, several wings much like Pinkie Pie's “robe” in Cupcakes (Sorry that I had to remind you of that, couldn't compare it with anything else.) lined his back. He wore a massive crown upon his head with a large ruby placed in the middle.

“That... is Tythol. The creator of this universe.”

King Horus's deep voice made me jump and turn back to see him, approaching me with Luna and Celestia.

“Tythol was a great being, he created this universe as I created Equestria with Isiset. When his brother, Lace Danneggiato-”

“Excuse me?” I said, surprised. “Lace Danneggiato is Tythol's BROTHER?”

You are fucking kidding me!

“Yes, he became power hungry, and created The Darkness to do his dirty work. The first generation of The Darkness was defeated by me, Isiset, Luna, Celestia, and Tythol. Lace Danneggiato approached us himself, banishing us to a realm of darkness. We began to store our power until a weakness was shown in the barrier and we broke through. It was too late, Lace had already filled the universe with what you call Evil. Our battle lasted for centuries until Lace Danneggiato wounded Tythol greatly, sending him deep into the waves of the universe, never to be found again. Me and Isiset created The Balance, who took Tythol's position and ruled the universe. Lace Danneggiato fled, as sending Tythol down that far into the waves took a great amount of energy. Thus Discord took Lace's position. Before he could escape and recharge, Luna and Celestia went after Lace and destroyed him. Or so we thought, he had it all planned out and released the current generation of The Darkness, now permanently defeated.”

I guess it makes sense.

“To this day we haven't had any signs of Tythol or Lace Danneggiato, ever since their most recent defeats. I have tried to bring Tythol back, but no amount of magic can rise him. It is up to Tythol himself to store up enough power and rise up... who knows how long that will be?” Horus looked down on the large stone tablet. It was Isiset, Horus, Celestia, Luna, and Tythol all fighting a massive snake like creature with a ponies head. It was Lace Danneggiato, yet I saw something that looked like him. Discord?

“Yes, Discord is...a pure fragment of Lace's being. Now contained so he cannot cause anymore major damage. What you see him preform is actually nothing compared to what Lace will do if he rises. Before you defeated him, Lace had just risen after billions of years and wasn't ready for such a battle. His soul was connected to yours, your two sides, Xax and Xas, formally known as Corruption and Chiro. Xax, who used to be Corruption was infused with Lace's dark power, giving him that snake like voice you would hear before Greg preformed the spell on you.”

It all made sense now...

“Lace used all of your negative emotions to fuel him, which still wasn't strong enough, which explains why you died and came back. He planned to use everything he could, even your own life when all he really needed was your negative emotions.”

“I don't understand... why me?” I asked. Looking up at King Horus.

“Because you're past made you an easier target. Your body was weak and tired from it's stress and anger. Lace used your body ever since you returned to Equestria after the destruction of your world. Xaxas, your alternate form, means you and Lace are still connected, but he cannot use you as you had wounded him too greatly. He cannot harm you until he breaks the ground and surfaces once again.”

“But why did you take me here?” I asked.

“Because we thought-” He turned his head over to Celestia and Luna.

Princess Celestia took a small step forward. “Because we thought, since you will bring Lace's true end upon him, that it would make sense for you to know the true story. Rarity had shown you her corrupted side, I presume?”

“Yes...” I said, shuddering. Those scars... that one black eye and the torn mane...

“That is another part of Lace Danneggiato, that is now under her control. Xaxas is also under your control, but until Lace rises, you and Rarity will be able to control your two sides."

“Is there anything else?” I asked.

“There is nothing else for you to know. I can assure you of that, and take this, Peter will enjoy it.” Horus floated a wrapped bag.

“What is it?” I asked, taking the box with my own magic.

“A little something both you and Greg can do. Remember to let Peter have it, also make sure Greg see's it first.” Horus said with a smile and a wink, he teleported me back to my house in my bed. Silvermoon had already fallen asleep as it had become late. I levitated the box into the closet, and shut my eyes. I head the bed rustle and Silvermoon had put herself against me. I laid my hooves on my chest, and my wings curled around me and Silvermoon. I fell asleep almost instantly. Next Chapter: Dorchester VS Greg: EPIC RAP BATTLE! Estimated time remaining: 51 Minutes
