I stood uncertainly with the former elements and then the princesses Luna and Cadenza before me. The elements snarled and struggled against the aura I held them all in, Luna glared at me, and Cadenza looked like she were desperately trying to not be terrified. I spoke slowly.

"Okay. Here's the deal..."

I snapped my paw and sent a pulse of magic into the minds of the elements, erasing their memories to the point of the previous morning. Anything I had added would be removed from them. As far as they knew , they had woken up this morning and then been immediately teleported to me. I waved another hand, sending out a massive wave of golden light, covering the entire area of my and Discord's effects. And the added benefit of placing all that I had released from Tartarus withing a massive bubble of magic. I blanked the mind of the elements again as they were sent home and the sun and moon moved to the point of that previous  morning as well. I looked back at the two princesses.

"I just reset everything to the way it the morning of my and Discord's escape. Every mind mended, all the damage fixed. The sun and moon I've even charged so that they can go by the right times on their own for a bit. All of this goes until I figure out what's going on in my head. The elements I have made useless for the moment, but you can easily reach me and I can send something to fix the problem. Celestia is still stone from the effect of the cockatrice I used, but I have modified the effect so that she can move, speak, even use a bit of magic although her power is dampened due to the stone insulating her. Tell the ponies that she's undergoing a simple magical treatment to help her balance or something. Just make it seem like the fact that Moonpie is a teen and Sunbutt is stone is a normal thing, some fancy magical ritual to help them be in tune with the celestial bodies or something. Make it fancy. Do it right and there'll be no panic. Don't try and attack me or I'll bring back the chaos. That all understood?"

Moonpie glared at me further and Cadence gave a nervous grin.

"W-well alright. But uh... How would we reach you, exactly?"

I sighed as I took out the token to call me from across the multiverse. I sent a pulse of magic into it, rewriting the message.

Freddy isn't here at the moment. If you're about to die or some shit call me I guess. Otherwise buzz off for the moment.

I made a copy of it and gave it to Cadenza. I looked at her as I teleported Moonpie to where Sunbutt was. I looked back at Cadenza. She hadn't been replaced by Chrysalis yet. I spoke in a low voice.

"Those two I hold a grudge against, but you I have no quarrel with. Don't make me regret this decision."

She nodded slowly, but then gave me a sad look and I felt a small bit of her magic rub at the edge of my mind.

"Your mind... Discord altered it?"

I raised an eyebrow and spoke in a low tone, conveying that she had instantly entered dangerous turf with her words.

"What?"

"I-I can see it in the aura of your emotions. Th-there's a bit splotch of Discord's magic around it..."

I placed a paw on her head, not altering her perception as much as seeing through it. And she was... Right. What.

The.

HELL!?

I flinched back, turning my magic back onto myself, tearing into my own mind. I roared in pain as I forced myself to see what I couldn't previously. That bastard had left a fucking backup of his will inside my own, and there was... Someone else? I couldn't place it but it seemed... Familiar. Like I knew who it was, but whatever blocks to my perceptions he had put in my head messed with what I saw of it. I pulled at it with my power, and struggled against the massive wave of pain that came with the effort. I had lowered myself to the ground and Cadenza had come with. I had let her out of my hold when I had landed, and I felt her place a hoof onto my shoulder.

"H-hey you'll make yourself a vegetable that way!"

She pulsed into my mind with her magic, and I felt her gently push into the space between the chunk of Discord's power and my own. I cautiously allowed her into my mind and felt her wrap around the piece of Discordance left in me. She looked at me with a kind look and spoke in a soft voice.

"This'll hurt a bit, okay?"

I nodded slightly as she cut the piece of power away my mind, and I watched it pass through my skull and float in her aura. A wave of relaxation went through me and a sense of peace. Then it hit me.

I remembered. Calvin Smith. He was twenty years old at the time, just in college. A fan of video games in general, but moreso for horror/survival games. He had been going out to a convention dressed as one of his favorite characters, when he had gotten a call from one of his best friends to talk about a shop with all kinds of cool stuff. His friend, Jack, had been cut off midway in his talking. Then Calvin had gone into the aforementioned shop, bought a pair of lenses for his costume and then left. A wave of light had burned over him and when he looked up he was somewhere else. He had been figuring out that he would go out to find the friend that had fallen into the same situation. He had later been attacked by a pair of magical creatures who had disrupted his mind to basic functions. Then had been save by a strange serpent named Discord. He had reached out to 'help' Calvin and then...

The timeline broke. The fragment in my mind... It was from one of the parallels I absorbed. The only one among an infinite group that hadn't been claimed by Discord's attack. He and I were one and the same, and yet not. I felt a final pulse of magic as the fragment became one with the rest of me. I finally figured myself out in that moment. I was a bit of the man I was and a bit of the man I had been. Alignment, now chaotic neutral rather than chaotic evil. My mind was still sociopathic and psychopathic, but I was happy with that. I looked back at Cadenza with a confused look.

"Why... Why would you help me?"

"Well you have some good in you. And sorry but I got a few glimpses from your mind... You've been through a lot. I'd say a bit of kindness from at least one Equestrian Princess is in order."

I trembled for a moment and took her in a literal bear-hug.

"Thank you. Call me if you ever need me, Cadenza. I always help a... Friend."

She smiled at me.

"Alright. Though  think that you may need to prove that you won't do anything to Equestria to Luna and Celestia yourself."

I chuckled and flashed a grin.

"Well alright, I suppose that'd be fine. Though personally I think I may just find a bit of unclaimed land in the badlands to make my own Fazbearian kingdom. When I get that goin' feel free to stop on by! See ya later Cadenza!"

She giggled and placed a hoof over her muzzle. I snapped a paw and warped away. Maybe...

Maybe my own Equestria wasn't all bad. Then I remembered Chrysalis again. She was going to kidnap Cadenza. She was going to keep her in deplorable conditions underground, alone. I growled.

No one hurts one of my friends.

She would need to be dealt with. And I would be the bear to do so. I drew out the small golden stasis cube I held the changelings from Folteren's world. I scanned them and found, to my surprise, that they were empty. Not to mean dead, but rather empty of their own wills. They all had memories, but they were simple drones to be controlled by Chrysalis. A common breed of changelings, made to follow the direct command of the queen. I warped out to the center of the badlands, in the center of what was known as dangerous and thus unclaimed land. I decided to give them a bit of myself. I snapped a paw and all of their eyes glowed white for a moment before flashing to a randomized color. I gave them a charge of my power, meaning they would be able to shift their appearances to give themselves their own looks. They each would begin to develop their own personalities now. They all looked confused and uncertain. I summoned up a small platform to stand on and I spoke to the group.

"Hail changelings, lend me your ears! I am Freddy Fazbear the golden, and on this day you are your own beings! You all have a will to you, and you can make your own choices. I will guide you as you need me, until you can walk on your own legs and make your own paths. Follow me and I will help you to make your own civilization of you changelings, or shiftlings as I will call you since you are now made to be a new race."

They all tentatively nodded, and walked closer to me. They all had the looks of puppies to them, and were looking at me for guidance. I patted one of them on the head, and waved them to walk beside me as I started using magic to reassemble large chunks of rock from the ground and mountainous region around me. I slowly formed them into basic rock constructs of buildings, with basic utilities. A snap of my paw modified them to have all of the additional details, electrical wiring, plumbing and such. I snapped again to create the required systems for these to be maintained below the ground. I charged magic into a large chunk of yellow crystal and planted it into a stone monolith in the center of the newly made town. That would power the electrical grid. I sent a wave of magic to place glowing spires on the edge of the land I claimed. I sent a scrap of paper to Sunbutt to tell her I claimed it. I gave all of the shiftlings a few bits of memory from myself, telling them how to use the plumbing and electrical systems, though I hadn't given them many appliances to be used nor toiletries to be connected into the pipes yet. I summoned up modified versions of toilets and sinks and such from my world, made to fit equines. By the time I finished I had a full on town made, with uncertain inhabitants.

I knew who I was, and what I would be.

I'm Freddy Goddamn Fazbear.

And Imma go wreck some shit, starting with Chrysalis and the monsters of Tartarus. Next Chapter: Chapter Fourteen: Meet The Fazbears/ Freddymon! Gotta Spawn 'Em All! Estimated time remaining: 4 Hours
