Hunter narrowed his eyes from his hiding place in the Black Castle. It took a little while for him to get out of that dungeon he found himself in after the invasion through a black portal that took him to this place. Undoubtedly when he finds the others they will be impressed with his infiltration skills.

Flashback.

Hunter slashed the twenty-ninth goblin’s head off when he was covered by a large shadow and turned around to see a giant snake’s open mouth rushing at him before being swallowed.

End Flashback.

Yes… Infiltration skills. No one will ever know he was pooped out inside a cage in the dungeon… Shaking his head he kept moving only for one brush up against a large stone and he started hearing music in his head.

“That… that’s one of the songs left to us by the great Strong Heart.” He mumbled to himself. “Saria’s song?” He asked as he placed his hoof against it and couldn’t help quietly humming the melody.

A fanfare melody fills the air as the wind circling within the stone’s eye fades. The stallion’s attention is drawn by a wolf’s howl. He takes in a deep breath and looked around in a panic. Afraid that someone or something would be drawn to the sound so he hardly rushed to hide behind one of the black crystal pillars.

With a soft bright flash of light, a wolf appears in front of the stone. It looks around in confusion at where it’s summoner could be. The wolf is mostly red in color with a mix of shades fading into a grey-greenish. The furry creature appears to be wearing blue earrings. On its forehead, is a strange symbol no pony has ever seen. Narrowing his eyes Hunter cursed inside his head and looked for an escape. Fortunately for him, a distraction came from the sounds of groaning down the hall and he was able to escape down another path when the wolf looked away.
As the wolf focused down one hall he saw a shriveled, dark brown hand grasp the edge. The wolf seems to recognize what the handed belong to, making him growl threateningly. Just then a smiling skull like face with skin like beef jerky and glowing red eyes turned to look at the wolf making it freeze in place as the undead creature shuffled towards him.

The wolf’s eye is wide in surprise, only to suddenly shift in feral rage as it begins to struggle to get out of the stare’s magic. It was slow. Unlike the ReDeads he was used to, where the effect wore off all at once he was regaining his muscles bit by bit. Starting with slight twitches and now up to moving like he’s walking through molasses.

The wolf growls loudly in protest before attempting to bark out in distress for anyone or anypony who could hear him.

“What’s all the racket going on out there?” A voice called out. The wolf’s attention was drawn as he turned to the direction it was coming from, but the wolf quickly looks back at the ReDead, knowing it is still a threat and too close for his liking. At that moment he realized his mistake as the moment he looked at it, he was completely frozen again. Just then Vinyl Scratch came walking into the area.

“Hey there buddy, how did you get in here?” She asked as she walked up to the wolf. “I can’t understand you so you're not the bosses but no collar either. Leave the pup alone.” Vinyl said as she waved off the ReDead that groaned and turned around and walked away. “Come on buddy I know where you can get some yummy food and make lots of friends.” With that Vinyl laid a hoof on the wolf and the two were teleported to an underground kennel filled with black wolves with glowing white eyes. “Don’t worry you’ll be able to move again soon.” With a pat on his head, she teleported away again. The wolf could only stand there and growl as the others took turns sniffing his butt.

The wolf barked loudly in annoyance as he spun around to stare at them with a fierce growl. If he could talk, he would bark out ‘Back off!’

“Oh looks like someone is ready to find his place in the pack right now.” One of the black wolves barked in laughter. This got the attention of the others that stalked forward menacingly.

The wolves tried to gauge his strength by his smell but it was average to them, it smelled out of this world and very alienated, plus the most distinctive thing about him, is the smell of ponies. Wolf Link’s ears perk up when one of the black wolves moved toward him. Like a well-oiled machine, the pack of black wolves jumped at Link all at once from all around him. With unexpected speed, the wolf spun around, somehow damaging all the wolves around him knocking the ones in front back while the rest waited. The moment he stopped he was tackled from the side and felt a wolf bite down on the back of his neck. Not too hard as to them this was just to see where he stood in the pack. Link suddenly spun around again in an attempt knock it off of him, this was not his first fight and he’ll be damned if he shows any weakness to them, it would be an insult to everything he’s managed to survive.

On reflex, when the black wolf felt the wolf under him jerk away he bit down harder to get him to submit but once Link was in full spin the Black wolf was sent flying. His jaws snapping shut after scraping across, the new wolfs neck drawing blood. Link at this point was done messing around, thus he begins to growl anew as sparks are seen forming inside of his maw, he’s attempting to channel Din’s Fire into his fangs. The black wolves, seeing this spread out and readied for an attack. Link could see that the moment he attacked one others would take advantage of to attack him. The hylian turned wolf had to be creative with this as he suddenly hits the ground with his fangs, causing an explosion of fire to spread out at all the wolves around him. His teeth will be hurting a little. With a yelp, the black wolves backed off and bowed in submission.

“Okay okay, you win! Congrats you’re fourth in the pecking order.” One of the black wolves said. “But only because you have magic attacks.”

Link smirked at this, knowing that they have no idea what he can truly do, he can just picture the looks on their faces when he returns to human form. He won’t be able to do it until he leaps into the mind of whoever summoned him.

“Don’t get too cocky. I don’t know about mom but you stand no chance against the alpha or her second Sasha.” Another black wolf said with annoyance.

Link takes this moment to lay down, not even bothered by whoever held the position of Alpha, he just wants to find whoever brought him here. Link huffs at the thought that it might have been a misplaced summon.

“Finally all that paperwork is done,” I say to myself as me and Phantom Rin walks down the hall when I notice a stone necklace and a glowing pocket knife on the floor. “What’s this?” I ask as I poke the stone but frown when I get no message. With a shrug, I poke the knife next. “Greetings. I'm Chara. If you are displaced and you need help, call me. I don't care if you're evil or good; I side with all displaced.”

“Hmmmm, What do you say Phantom? Want to meet a new friend?” I ask my shadow and it just shrugs. “Yo Chara! I just got through a literal mountain of paperwork and I need some fun. Want to hang out?”

A portal soon opens in the ceiling “Goddamniiiiiiit!”” She screams before landing head first into the floor. After a short moment of her lying there, I check if she’s ok with my magic and seeing she’s fine I Summon a stick and start poking her with it.

With a groan, Chara slowly got up. She looks around before her eyes fell upon me. “Huh, that’s new. You got displaced as your Naruto character or something?” Chara asked.

“Um, no. Dungeon Keeper. I was also wearing a kitsune mask at the time sooo…” I just gesture to my fluffy body.

“Yeah, whatever. Whatcha need? Please tell me you need someone killed.” Chara said pleadingly.

“Nope. I’m bored and I found your token. Want to play with me?” I ask as my tails wag. At that moment my shadow peeled itself off the floor and tapped my shoulder. “Play with us?” I corrected.

“Sure, I got nothing better to do. And besides, mama sunbutt will just punish me when I get back.” Chara said with disgust coloring her voice.

“Oh? What did you do?” I asked curiously.

“What haven’t I done is the better question. Every time I get summoned and then return, if she senses anything evil on me, she’ll have a talk with me, or one of two things will happen.. Either spray me with poison joke or..” She paused as she shuddered. “The heated metal paddle..”

“Ohhh...And I’ve ascended into a goddess with darkness, forbidden knowledge, and undeath as aspects…” I say sheepishly. “Ya, my corruption will stand out like a swarm of angry dragons in an art gallery.”

Chara stares at me for a few seconds before throwing her hands into the air. “Welp, I’m fucked. And it's not the regular kind of fucked, I’m fucked with a twelve feet purple dildo sword.” Chara exclaimed, even though Chara knows Celestia wouldn’t really do that.

“Well, now I feel bad… Sooooo.” I wave one of my tails in front of my face changing it into a large toothy grin. “Want to go play with dead bodies? We can play mister potato head and mix and match parts then reanimate them!”

“You know what? You speak my kind of language, girl!” Chara said with a giddy smirk. With a maniacal laugh, I wrap one of my tails around her waist, lift her up and set her down on my back.

“To the cadaver lab!” I proclaim as I create a shadow portal and jump in. Once we’re on the other side I walk around showing my rider the chests in the room. “Gifts from my great nephew who became a space god. Each chest can hold infinite corpses and are labeled with what you can find in them. I harvest from any world I have worshipers. Go ahead and pick what you want to play with and my foxes will grab one.” I tell her as several foxes ran up to serve.

“Do you have an alicorn, a manticore, and a dragon?” Chara asked with a malicious smile

“Alicorn, no, and if I had one I would use it to make a Death Knight immediately but yes to the others,” I reply.

“Ok, manticore, unicorn and dragon then.” She suggested instead. I then turned and walked to the next room that was a Torture Chamber with a few pieces of lab equipment brought in. I sit down and let Chara slide down my back as two foxes dragged in two corpses and with a slapping sound the unicorn and manticore were placed on the spiked tables and other foxes brought in flesh carving tools.

“We’ll have to wait for my corpse collector to bring in the dragon as those are too big and heavy for my foxes. But we can start now on the others.” I tell my new playmate as I hold up a scalpel and bone saw.

“Well first thing we need to do is transfer whatever gives the Unicorn it's magic and horn to the Manticore because I want a fire-breathing magic using manticore!” Chara said with a giddy expression and letting out a slightly insane giggle.

“Oh? You want to keep it? I don’t mind as I get fresh corpses in everyday to become my toys but wouldn’t your mother break it the moment you got it home?” I asked.

Chara’s face falls almost immediately in realization. “You’re right, could I keep my pet here for when I come to visit?” Chara asked, giving her the puppy dog eyes.

“Awwww, sure you can kid.” I say as I mess her hair with a paw. “Now normally You would need the soul of a unicorn for its magic as that’s what gives them their magic. But I can hook up a mana battery instead. That way we only need the horn and some of the nervous system and brain. But as this won't be an intelligent undead without a soul we’ll need to make some premade spells carved in with runes so what are you looking for in that regards?” I ask as I take the scalpel and carefully start making incisions.

“I have a soul that you can use, but it may still be devoted to Nightmare Moon, you might need to fix that!” Chara says summoning up a soul in front of her tied up in her blue soul strings, it begins lashing out in anger, constantly yelling out “I WILL END YOU ALL!” I tilt my head and frown.

“I’m a strong believer in free will. I only take freedom from those that deserve it and I’ve never outright enslaved anyone.” I say disapprovingly. “I’ll give a soul the worst torment imaginable if they deserve it and may even feed him to one of my minions but I won't force him to serve you in the undead we’re making. If you want him as a pet I can put him in something that can't hurt anyone but I won’t take his will.”

“Well, this guy tried to kill my friend Blueblood and has already killed me once.” Chara said before suddenly going silent as something inside of her speaks to her. “Oh, apparently this poor bastard never had free will. Shadow just told me that he was brainwashed since birth..” Chara explained.

“And you just conveniently found out about this now?” I asked but looked down at the soul. “I’m not that good with mind magic. Aside from mental barriers I’ve never went past mediocre on anything in that field. But I do have a minion that’s an expert that should. Especially considered who you’re implying did it. NIGHTMARE! GET DOWN HERE!” I shout out and wait for a bit before the wraith like form of the parasitic being floated down.

Chara suddenly summons her True Shadow Knife and her Pocket Knife when she saw her mist form, both of her weapons glowing with pure hatred, she looks like she’s about to swing them.

“Swords of revealing light.” I say lazily and light swords fell around Chara locking her in place. “Calm down girl, I made this particular nightmare my bitch when she came after a dark artifact I had in my care. It took a while and giving her the ability to feel things other than hate and hunger but she works for me now.”

Chara’s glare of pure hatred turns to a look of sadistic glee as she listens on to Rin. “Oh, please tell me you recorded it or you can share your memories of it.” The nightmare shivered and looked disturbed at the idea of seeing that again.

“Well… Hey nightmare come here.” I say to her and she reluctantly came within range. “Remember it.” I tell her as I rest my paw on her head and create an illusionary bubble. The image shows my face when I still had a normal one as my jaws open wide and shoot forward and all I can see in the drool covered inside of my own mouth and the screams of the nightmare rang out as I began to chew. “Oh ya… I forgot I did that.” After sloshing the nightmare around and tasting it making pleasure sounds from the flavor there was a loud gulp as it shows the nightmare sliding down my throat and falling into my belly that was churning the raw chicken I had eaten earlier as the nightmare’s magic powers were slowly getting absorbed into me.

Chara begins laughing her ass off at the sight of this. ”Oh god, if I could cast the Patronus, this would be the memory I would use.” Chara said with glee.

“I’d make you an memory orb to take home but again, dark magic.” I say with a shrug. “Anyways she told me this ghost was brainwashed by one of yours. Can you fix it?” I ask the nightmare as the bubble popped. Happy to leave memory lane the nightmare flew up to the ghost and black tentacles shot out of her back and pierced the ghost’s ethereal head making him scream.

Charas smile only grows more sadistic as the ghost screams. After a short while the tendrils pulled back out of his head and into Nightmare’s back.

“HOW COULD YOU DO THIS, MISTRESS!?” The cultist's soul screamed.

“Hmmmmm, were you unable to fix any brainwashing? Or was he never brainwashed to begin with?” I ask the Nightmare. She just floated over to me and touched my head to send me her thoughts. “I see… Well she was able to fix him in a way. The brainwashing is gone but it’s literally all he knows so there is nothing to change back from.” I say as I scratch my neck with a paw. “She did it, little ghost, because I told her to. I am the dark goddess she serves. So next time you’ll think twice before mouthing off to me.”

“Y-yes, mistress.” he said relentlessly.

“This has been the best day ever!” Chara cheered happily with a massive smile on her face.

“Now little worshiper of my servant the time has come to make a choice. One of my aspects is undeath so you may continue to serve as an undead. A type of flesh golem made from the parts of a manticore and a dragon as well as just enough unicorn to do magic. You will be serving directly under Chara when she has need of you and the rest of your time you will live in my Black Castle in the lap of luxury so long as you are obedient. Or you can choose judgement where I will view your entire life and see where your soul will go.” I tell him.

“Serve that filly?” The ghost asked in questioning as he looked over the kid, who currently had a shit-eating grin.

“Make no mistake your soul is mine either way. She would be second to me but as I have many servants it is unlikely that I will call on one that may be called on another that I have given permission. And should she misuse this privilege it will be taken. But the choice is yours and I am not so petty as to alter what would happen to you just by telling me no.” I reassure him.

The soul hesitated then sighed, he’s already bodiless at the moment and this fate is not as bad as being tortured by a shadow in Chara’s body. “Your wish is my command, mistress.” the spirit said. I smile and with a gentle wave of my tail free him of his bindings before pulling him into a hug. The effects of the undeath aspect kicked in and he completely relaxed and drifted off to sleep. I then placed him in a corner where he will stay dormant till his new body is done.

“Now,” I say as I begin to cut again and remove the top of the pony’s head. “Let’s get back to it.” With that the brain is placed in a jar and at that moment Table top, my corpse collector came in dragging the dragon corpse in his chains. Chara looked up at the towering hulk of an undead that was Table Top who she didn’t even reach his knees.

Chara squees at the site of the dragon with a huge smile on her face.

A few hours later.

The top of its head was a unicorn with the mouth of a dragon, it had dragon wings, it kept most of the manticore's body, it had the dragon’s tail but with the manticore’s stinger, it paws were replaced with dragon claws. It’s size was a little compact but it kept much of it’s dragon strength thanks to magic runes carved into its bones and using dragon muscle which I densened as much as I could while allowing it to be light enough to fly. She wanted it to breathe fire as well but I convinced her that fire + undead = cremation so we went with ice breath instead, which only took one dark ritual.

“Yay! Mr. Snugglekins is ready!” Chara cheers happily and starts hopping around. The dragon construct let out a soft groan in discomfort at Chara. I just snort as I grab her with a tail and pull her in.

“Now listen closely as I have a few rules for using him. No having him kill someone that isn’t bad enough to get the death sentence anyways or when there is no other choice. No using him to commit any unnecessary crimes. I am chaotic good alignment after all. And no cruelty to him. Nothing he did in the past is his fault and you know it.” I tell her.

“Awwww, You didn't leave me any loopholes that I could manipulate..” Chara said with a pout as she crossed her arms.

“He’s mine, so I’ll know whatever you do with him even if you do try and be clever and ‘misinterpret.’ and I’ll cut you off anyways.” I say with a shrug as the door opened and a dwarf walks in. “This is one of my followers as well. As I carved runes into the bones I walked him through making that ring so that it won’t have any dark magic in it. It’s used to summon him. Just make sure to send him back before mommy dearest can get to him.” I warn as the dwarf hands Chara the gold ring.

“Well, I better not bring him with me through the portals the first time. I always end up in Canterlot throne room for some reason.” Chara said grimacing

“Now, what do you say we go take him out for a test drive?” I say with a grin.

“Let's!” Chara said with an equally large grin

Meanwhile with Link.

The wolf of Link groans in annoyance as nothing is happening as of yet besides the wolf pack doing its usual thing of being an owned dog. Where was that one unicorn who claimed she’d get something to eat? The moment that door opens, he’s booking it the hell outta there, tripping the guard making him spill all the food on the floor.

Link’s eyes darted all over the place, trying to find a way outta here or at least locate whoever summoned him, test him or her, then return to his human form. So far all he could tell is that he’s underground and he could smell the undead everywhere. Just as he turned the corner he stopped when he saw a griffin in black armor carrying a leash in his beak. A leash attached to a very big deathclaw from the fallout games. Four to be exact. Link's’ eyes went wide in shock, wondering how the hell those things are even in Equestria, he’s beginning to think that perhaps someone has summoned him, only to be captured at the last second before he arrived at the scene. All he needs to do, is find whoever has his token and finally get answers for being here.

“What are you staring at, newbie?” The griffin asked as if expecting an intelligent answer from him. The deathclaw however had something else to say that needed his attention more.

“Food!” the monster cried as he reached for Link with its razor sharp claws faster than anything that big has any right to move.

Yiping in surprise, he dashes out of the way, leaps onto the wall, and pushes himself past the griffin. Link thinks this is going to be one of those days where everything just doesn’t go exactly as it's supposed to be.

“Hey!? What are you doing!? You don’t…” At this the griffin stopped. “You don’t try to eat anything bound to the dungeon heart. Hey, we got a stray on the loose!” The griffin shouted loudly.

Link bounded around the corner as he sniffed the air, silently cursing to himself at the multiple colored scent trials that riddle this place. His ears soon twitched at the sound of several boots hitting ground behind him and turning his head he saw that he was being chased by a large number of skeleton soldiers led by a minotaur in black armor.

“Get back here you mutt! I don't wanna hurt you, I’m just going to take you where there is food!” He shouts out to Link.

Link moved his neck to look at the minotaur and give a bark warning, he turns his attention to where he’s going, just trying to get away. At the moment, Link was getting a little annoyed.

“Hurry and catch him! He’s not bound to the heart so if he runs into any of the traps he’ll set them off!” Someone else shouted.

“Don’t worry! As long as he keeps going straight he’ll meet a dead end at the dragon’s lava pool!” Another shouted. “And Crocodile went for his tranquilizer gun!”

Upon hearing about traps, Link suddenly skid to a halt then turned to look for the one called Crocodile. Link’s mind was racing, trying to think of anything that could help him out, otherwise he’s more of a mouse lost in a maze, if only there was a way to communicate with them, to prove he’s got some form of intelligence. Link raises his head as blue energy began to gather in his maw, suddenly he quickly swallows it. Slowly, a weird diamond barrier appeared around his body.

“Ummmm...What?” One of the black knights asked when he saw this. He then came up and knocked on the barrier before having the bright idea of trying to punch through it. “Oh &^%#^! That hurt!” He cried as he backed off.

“Ummm, what do we do now?” Asked another black knight.

“Surround him so he can’t run off again...And someone go get Wrath. If it’s smart enough to cast a spell, she should be able to talk to it.” A dragon answered.

Upon hearing that, Link sat down and nodded to the dragon in acknowledgement. It was a lot better plan than running around aimless and risk finding something that can take him down. After all, Link is very limited in wolf form when he can hold a bow or swing a ball and chain. His barrier continued to hum around him. After a while of sitting, Link saw the circle break open to allow something through and another black wolf came through though this one was as big as a full grown horse. She came up to the barrier and poked at it.

“Hello there. My name is Wrath, the mother of the shadow wolves. I’m here to talk. What are you doing in here?” She asked.

Link couldn’t really answer her with his current vocal cords, he growls out a word as a test before speaking his mind to see which way Wrath would speak to him, either through telepathy, or translating a wolf’s tongue into english. “My name is Link and I was summoned here through my wolf howling stone token.” He explained mentally. Wraith frowned at this.

“Your K9 is so garbled, I can’t really understand you. But I think I might have heard token in there. Are you a displaced?” She asked. The wolf nodded, then he sways his neck to make his necklace swing. It was a stone with a single eye in the middle that was swirling with wind magic, anyone who looked at it would hear a song.

“I see, The mistress is entertaining a guest at the moment. A rather disturbed looking girl with a knife named Chara. But under the circumstances I’m sure she won’t mind another drop in. You can come from the shield now and please follow me. It’s alright everyone.” She called out and despite clearly talking like any other wolf everyone apparently understood what she was saying and left.

With a deep sigh, the barrier blinks before fading. His ears perked out at the mention of Chara, he let out another sigh. “Her token must of appeared the same time as mine, although that doesn’t explain why we arrived in two different places.” Link thought. He follows after the black wolf, keeping wary of everything.

“Okay, we’re coming to the shifting maze little one. Bite my tail and don't let go till we’re outside because if you’re not one of us the magic defenses of the walls will keep them shifting to keep you lost.” She warned. Link gave Wrath a look at the comment as if he’s a pup. “I guess wolf ages are different compared to a humans.” Link commented in his mind, he made his way behind the black wolf’s tail and bites onto her, it felt really awkward to him.

It didn’t take long before they found themselves in a cave with daylight pouring in and once outside he saw that they were in some kind of rain forest and on top of a hill was a black, nine tailed fox looking up at the sky where he saw an excited Chara flying on the back of...well he didn’t know what it was but it looked freeky.

“Mistress! I brought the displaced pup!” Wraith called out getting the fox’s attention.

“Oh good, bring him over.” The fox replied in english.

Link growled in minor annoyance at being called a pup but that was ignored. Once he got up to the black fox he saw that she appeared to be wearing a white mask and had no eyes. Instead she had empty sockets with small blue flames that acted as pupils. Moving to show where she was looking. Link then felt a gentle brushing against his mind as if asking to be let in.The wolf blinked before slowly allowing his mind to open. The pressure of a mental presence reminded him of a certain book series he used to read back before he was displaced.

“Hello, my name is Rin. What is your name?” My voice rang in The wolf’s head. The red, green, and grey wolf frowned when he didn’t see his token around the fox’s neck.

“My name is Link.” He answered.

“I understand you’ve been staying with some of my other loyal pets then had a nice run through my dungeon. Just barely missing a few lightning and lava pit traps that you didn’t even notice. What are you doing here?” I asked.

“I was summoned here, although perhaps by accident. Someone has sang to my token, but when I arrived, no one was there..” Link explained mentally. I tilt my head and look down at the necklace Link had.

“Oh so that was a token. I saw a necklace that looked like it was made by the same artist on the floor next to Chara’s knife.” I say with a nod. “Can you really not talk any other way than mind chat?”

“No. I made my token to where if anyone summons me, I end up in this form since the token is based on the howling stones. The only way I can return back to normal is to leap into the mind of whoever summoned me, I give them a small test to see if they’re good or evil.” Link said via the mindlink before tilting his head in distrust. “Any reason why you’ve got an army of the undead at your command?”

“Do you know what dungeon keeper is?” I ask him.

“Only one I know of is an old windows 95 game back in my world. I’m assuming you gained the power of that?” Link asked.

“Yes, and it came with this little side effect. I literally can’t use any kind of magic other than dark magic. I took a particular shine to necromancy for its healing applications and the free minions. Also at some point I ascended and one of my aspects is undeath.” I say with a shrug.

Link deep a nervous breath when I mentioned undeath. “I don’t know your Equestria enough to judge you nor do I want to bring harm to you if you’ve become Chara’s friend.” Link explained.

“Don’t worry. I’m also immune to the corrupting effects of dark magic so I’m chaotic good alignment.” I say happily.

Link went silent for a moment as he pondered. “Could you do me a favor? I would like for you to ask all of your minions if any of them accidentally sang to my token.” Link asked. I look up and use my link to project the question but I didn’t get an answer.

“No, I just asked them and got no response so not them. It was at the Black Castle in my city so it must have been one of my followers that live there...the hundreds of followers, many of which hum random songs they’ve never heard before all the time thanks to the magic of Equestria that makes people break out into musical numbers…” I reply with a face paw.

“Wait” Link said with realization. “You said you saw my token, do you have it?” he asked. As a response it dropped out of the sky between us.

“I left it on the floor but I can use the hand of evil to move objects around so long as it’s in my territory.” I answer.

“Good, hold it front of mine.” Link said as he sat down straight and presenting his necklace token. I just pick the thing up and hold it.

Both of the tokens started humming in random melody before finally syncing up with each other. Soon, both of them were singing the song of storms to accept that I am the summoner.

“There, now. If you don’t mind, I need to leap into your head for just a moment.” Link explained.

“Wup, hold on a sec let me take down my mental barriers. Would probably be like running head first into a brick wall...Okay it’s safe.” I reply.

Link takes a few steps, then takes a glance around to make sure no one is watching, he doesn't need the minions panicking if they saw a wolf suddenly phase into their mistress’s head. With a mighty leap, Link entered my head, causing a brief flash. Suddenly, I was standing high above the clouds over Equestria.

There in the middle, was the wolf sitting and panting. With a howl, there is another brief flash. There in it’s was a man garbed in green and wearing a red cloak and hood. He lowers the hoof to reveal a thirty seven year old man with long pointed ears and yellow hair, he’s got some facial hair on his face, mostly a stache and a short goatee that had a rough trim. Despite the change, his blue eyes still held the feral courage of the wolf. “I’m glad to get out of that.” Link said with a relieved sigh.

“Ya, you didn’t exactly think that one through did you? What would you do if both your summoner and token were lost?” I ask in a deadpan.

“Hey, it’s the first it happened. I’ll need to modify it a bit to allow only Displaced to summon me.” Link said with a raised leather gauntlet hand.

“Oh, Vinyl told me you saw one of my ReDeads. Have you ever seen a ReDead before? How did I do? I tried to emulate it as best as I could but I don’t know how to make a paralyzing scream. I had to substitute cockatrice eyes. To weak to petrify after death but they can still paralyze you for a short time if you make eye contact.” I say excitedly as I bounce up and down.

“Thanks for the info.” Link said with a sigh, he looks at me as his eyes gleamed for a moment, but I didn’t know what it meant.

Link had a minor headache at the sudden barrage of information that entered his mind, he was so used things being done in different kind of mechanic. “Jeez, you’ve been busy..” Link commented.

“How rude.” I say with a huff as I take the floating window with my information away and look at it. “I let you into my mind to help you and without even asking you just start rummaging through my private information.”

“Sorry, I was expecting basic information, not a history lesson.” Link said as he rubbed his head. “I’m gonna need to have a talk with The Batter about why the Wide Angle ability did that.” Link said as he looked around the mindscape. The clouds were long gone and now they were sitting in a giant play room filled with toys and theme park rides but there was also the occasional tombstone sticking out of the carpet. He noticed that they were sitting on giant Celestia and Luna plushies.

“That’s a first..” Link commented as he looked toward me. “I think i’ve invaded enough as it is..” Link said with a nervous tone of voice. “I mean I didn’t cause this..” He said as he waved a hand at the sudden change in the mindscape.

“No this is my mindscape. It’s the environment I’m most comfortable in. My happy place.” I reply.

“But why show me this? I mean we can leave it now and return to the outside, I completed the my token’s magic and I can be in human form outside of here…” Link explained.

“I didn’t. We came here when you named my, for lack of a better word, character sheet. Oh, by the way… You know how in the zelda games if you anger a chicken they make you pay big time? Did you ever deal with that in real life?” I asked him.

“No, I don’t think they exist in my Equestria, but if they did, I wouldn’t even dare to touch them. Plus one of them might be like the ones from Twilight Princess where you suddenly take control of the chicken’s body.” Link explained.
“Well...Good luck then.” I say and before he could ask me what I mean, I kick him out and we're back in the real world and the first thing he sees is a pissed Cluck Norris as he flies into Link’s face, pecking him on the nose before kicking him on the chin knocking Links head up while launching himself down. Pulling wire out of his utility belt Cluck quickly tied up Link’s feet, kicked the inside of his knee knocking Link on his back and fast as lightning had a tiny, chicken sized blade up against Link’s throat.

“Link meet Cluck Norris...I’d be careful around chickens in this world if I were you.” I say in amusement.

“Kind of late for the warning.” Link said with a groan, he didn’t try to move at all since the blade was against his throat. Just to add to my amusement as payback for his snooping earlier I create an illusionary sound. A sound like there are thousands of chickens in the far of distance getting closer.

Link remained emotionless as he heard the millions of clucks coming closer.

“That’s enough Cluck you can let him go now.” I say. Cluck moves away from Link’s throat but gives him a glare that dared Link to start shit before moving to Link’s legs and removing the wire.

“Not the roughest I’ve been in, but good ambush tactic.” Link commented, getting up once the wire was removed.

“He’s one of my Epics.” A say proudly and Cluck puffs up his chest. “And you're lucky he didn’t use his lightsaber. That would have left burn marks.”

Link stared at me in disbelief. “And you’ve been here how long??” He asked as he shook his head. “How many Displaced did you meet? I mean you’re beyond the original.”

“Well let’s see there was Dr. Doom, Asphyxias, Aylmer, but I killed him because he was eating pony’s brains. Two star wars displaced, Oh, I was once randomly invited to a displace Halloween party so that place was full of them. A power ranger displace, before I became a goddess I got drunk and went on a drunken rampage across the multiverse. And I should probably mention that my Celestia created a law that said I’m not aloud to get drunk for a good reason. A dark magician and Dark magician girl, Pegasus from Yugioh, Majin Buu, Oh get this! Did you know that ponies get displaced to human worlds? I met a Twilight that got displaced to this sci-fi world where humans fought against these monsters!” I rambled on.

“By Din’s fiery wrath…” Link commented with his mouth hanging out, he looked a little discouraged. “I’ve been very.. Sparingly with worlds I go into. Mostly because…” Link said as he looked over at Chara who was still having the time of her life. “I know I’m capable of dying, I’ve already had one hell of time when the Twinrovas trapped me in the Gap Between Dimensions, I would of been dead if Iron Ash hadn’t been there to fight alongside me.” Link explained. Even with the Triforce of Courage that allowed him to fight on, he didn’t like the concept of death.

“I understand. The threat of evil displaced are a real thing. That’s why I’m a plotter. I’ve gotten into the habit of coming up with plans of taking down any and all displaced I even hear of just in case. In fact I’ve already thought up seventy two ways to cripple or kill you before you asked if I had your token under the assumption you had the ability and items of every link in every game. With almost no room for error as most of them are made to cover the failure of others.” I say with a friendly smile.

“Sorry that I couldn’t live up to your expectations, but I only have access to four Links. “ He held up a hand. “So far of the seventeen years of being a Displaced, I’ve used equipment from Ocarina Of Time, Majora’s Mask, A Link to the past, Twilight Princess. I had to get through most of my battles through trial and error or get creative with my equipment.” Link explained.

“One hundred and seventeen.” I say happily.

“I don’t attack every displaced I come across unless they’re a determined to kill me.” Link explained

“Oh, you don’t want that trust me. You will never get a straight fight from me. I’m a trickster and great one at that. I would cheat like there is no tomorrow.. .Unless it’s made a game. One of my aspects is games and now I can’t cheat in them. But then, neither can anyone else.” I say with a shrug. “I don’t want to fight you, I’m just stating a fact. You can never be too careful out there when for all you know the next Hitler can have all the powers of Superman.”

“Trickster. That little show you pulled would of tricked me if I didn’t have this triforce fueling me with courage. As for you being careful, you have the right to be, there are many displaced out there, some broken beyond reasoning while some have been given the worse fate. Chara here? She was given immortality, she
at all since she can just respawn. “ Link said then placed a hand to his chin.

“Nineteen. Immortality is a little limiting but workable.” I reply.

“Tch’. If only I could explain that to Chara. She’s too determined for her own good, thus she’ll fight till the enemy is dead, even if she can’t kill them.” Link said with a sigh.

“...I once fought a Juggernaut from X-Men. You know who that is? Mr. unstoppable?” I ask.

“Oh dear Farore, I can imagine how that went.” Link said with a chuckle.

“I made him bleed. Put a hole right through him with a powerful weapon I got from another displaced. When I did, he had the biggest look of incomprehension on his face. The idea that he could ever be harmed was beyond him. He asked me how and you know what I told him? I said you’re too reliant on your invulnerability. You never try to block or dodge anything, assuming that there are no exceptions to that rule. My point is that that is a bad mindset to get in. You need to get it through that child’s head that even she can die.” I say sadly.

“Only way for that to happen, is have her be summoned by a Displaced that can end her.” Link said before going silent, he reached up and rubbed his forehead. “Chara is a handful sometimes, especially for my world’s Celestia who treats everyone as her children, even if they weren’t born there.”

Chara soon comes riding up on her Undead abomination. “What’s up, Link, you like my new pet?” Chara said with a excited smile as she jumped off of the abomination of a mutant undead as it was sitting down.

Link said nothing.

“Link, you like the creation me and my new bestie made?” Chara asks again, hugging one of the tails of Rin.

“You do realize Celestia isn’t going to like the stench of the undead on you, right?” Link said as he crossed his arms and causing Chara space to fall in horrified realization.

“Well it’s nice to see that you have some concept of consequences despite what the pup here said.” I saw while patting Link on the head with one of my tails. “Maybe I can talk with her? She isn’t one of those ones that shoots first and asks questions later is she?”

“Uh.. Well, she would give you the benefit of the doubt, she wouldn’t attack you out of paranoia and she’ll see you as one of her children if you planned to live there or have a home away from home.” Link said.

“Well then maybe I can soften the blow that Chara’s tooshy will get by letting Celestia know that despite my dark power she wasn’t hanging out with evil doers raiding villages or using an undead army to wipe all life from the land.” I say with a shrug.

“Possibly. Celestia has quite the pure heart, she’ll be willing to listen, she knows all evil isn’t bad.” Link explained.

“Yeah take me for instance I've got a level of violence in the fucking 80s!” Chara says snuggling deeper into my fluffy tails.

“...You know I never heard anyone say not all evil is bad. Not all darkness yes but never evil. Then again I’ve found good uses for Horny and I’ve never met anyone more evil than that.” I say as my tails wrap around Chara and I place her back on my back. “Okay let’s go smooth things over. For obvious reasons we should leave your new friend behind Chara.” I say as I use my hand to send the mismatched undead to his new home.

“Awwwww..” Chara pouted. “But I like Mr. Fluffykins…” she said with puppy dog eyes.

“Before we go there, I think you need to end our tokens and then we’ll need to find your token in our world.

“But Link, she is a goddess, I think she could just teleport to another universe after placing a tracking spell on me!” Chara said as if it was obvious.

“That shouldn’t be hard. The thing gives an aura of darkness like you wouldn’t believe so any spell for finding dark magic will light the way like lighthouse.” I say dismissively.

“...You can go anywhere you want without a token?” Link asked with skepticism in his voice. “Even without the Void Dwellers doing anything?”

“I don’t use the void. I use shadow portals to go through the Shadow Realm. The inhabitants there won’t bother you unless your a creature of light. And even then if you pass through fast enough they ignore you.” I answer.

“Huh, I guess the Void Dwellers trust you enough..” Link said with a shrug.

“See Link? Anything is possible as a goddess!” Chara says excitedly.

“I do know a few eldritch being. Like good old _____________” I say seeing the two cringe in pain for a moment. “Whoops, sorry, sometimes I forget not everyone has taken the time to wean into their language so that you can talk to them and read their stuff. Your minds have probably already suppressed the name.”

“I guess the name is forbidden to speak to mortal ears.” Link said.

“But I’m not fucking mortal, I shouldn’t had cringed!” Chara said with annoyance in her voice.

Link sighed. “And this is how the parasitic nightmare moon poisoned your mind that one time, Chara. You got cocky and she got you.” Link pointed out.

Chara glared at Link with a grumpy expression on her face.

“Chara there are exceptions to every rule, especially with conflicting ones where the multiverse is involved. There are plenty of ways to kill even an immortal. I could do it right now, no resets and there are plenty of horrible people out there that can do the same.” I tell her.

[Chara feels her fears crawling down her back]

Chara shivers at that.

“Yea, like a Displaced Missingno.” Link randomly guessed. “I mean if a Merchant was insane enough to do that.”

“I wouldn’t be surprised. Hell he gave me the disease spell from the first Dungeon Keeper game. It’s a spell that gives one target an incurable and extremely contagious, deadly disease.” I tell them.

“I’m glad I’m not on your enemy list.” Link said, it would of been said with fear but that Triforce tends to get in the way.

“I’ve never used it and never will. You can kill a kingdom with that spell alone and it won’t discriminate between soldier and child.” I say with a head shake. “My point is how insane would you have to be to give something like that spell to anyone?”

“So it’s pretty much a rather deadly double edged sword.” Link guessed.
Chara is being very quiet and is very afraid but only Link was able to tell thanks to him being around her for so long.

“Oh, it won't infect any of my minions and the undead are safe but even if I had a guarantee it would only infect the enemy… Well, I got a description of it in my head when the knowledge was forced into my brain. Uncontrollable and violent muscle spasms that tear the muscles apart, hypersensitivity, bleeding eyes, pre death decomposition constant vomiting the list goes on. It was designed to be as cruel as possible.” I answer.

“Yea-yea-yea, this has been fun.. Let’s get this over, I don’t want to be punished by Mama Sunbutt for being summoned.” Chara said with a mask of annoyance.

“Chara, Link, your contacts are complete.” I say aloud.

The moment those words were spoken, Link was encased in a blue crystal, it levitated his form slowly into the way before vanished in a flash of light.

Chara falls through the portal with a loud yelp.

Link had a soft landed back in Canterlot castles throne room, there is confusion on his face, he recalls being at the wooden cottages before being summoned.

Chara stumbles out of the portal and rolls onto the floor.

“Chara..” A gentle but slightly annoyed voice spoke out.

“It wasn’t my fault, honestly! I was summoned by a goddess this time.. And she wants to have a talk with you to keep me out of trouble..” Chara whines.

“A goddess?” Celestia said with a raised eyebrow.

“She’s the goddess of darkness, forbidden knowledge, games, undeath and elevator buttons.” Chara explained..

“Oh for my name’s sake.. Don’t tell me it's another Discord.” Celestia said with a hoof on her face as if an invisible headache forming.

“No, she’s a nine tailed fox.“ Chara said and beaming at her and pride.

“However.. I don’t like her… titles.” Celestia said questioningly. “I mean not the games and elevator… buttons?” She said, having no idea what it is but due to its unknown name, it sounds exactly what Discord would make up. “What has this.. Goddess done?”

“Oooh, nothing much, she in her equestria, are fighting some dumbasses that think that darkness means evil and any dark magic can’t be used for good.” Chara explained and looked thoroughly annoyed. Link leans against the closest tower.

“Reminds me of when Starswirl said that chaos magic can be used for good..” Celestia said as her eyes are filled with memories, then soon replaced with sadness. She shakes her head before looking at Chara.

“Before she comes, I think you need a good bath. You reek of death” Celestia said as Chara was levitated into the air, making Link smirk.

“What? No! Put me down you mad mare!” Chara protested as Celestia took her to the royal bathing room, Chara can hear Link laughing a little.

“Link, I know where you sleep, no… no.. NO, I can do this myse-” There was a sound of a loud splash.

“Honestly, Chara. I wish you wouldn’t do this sort of thing, necromancy tends to make me sick.” Celestia said as she washed Chara with a sponge in her telekinesis grip.

Chara stopped and looked down in guilt. “I-i’m sorry, I didn’t mean to make you sick.“ Chara said, she sounded like she was on the verge of crying.

She takes a glance around and casts a detect life spell to make sure no one was near. “There’s a reason why I’ve been trying to make you into a good girl so that you can be in around me, I never told you this but whenever you bring up your past or show any level of violence, it tends to weaken my mortal form for a moment.. I never tell anypony this as there may be others who don’t agree with my ruling.” Celestia explained.

[Chara feels her sins crawling on her back]

The rest of the bath was done in silence. However, after she took Chara out, she had a pink dress levitated near her.

“No, no, fuck no, I am NOT wearing a dress, let alone a pink one.” Chara protested as she started looking for her other clothes.

“Well, you need to wear something while your clothes are being washed..” Celestia said.

“But why pink? And why a dress?” Chara whined.

“..Because most of the clothes here don’t fit your size or your shape, I had to modify this with alchemy magic, it was either that or try Rarity’s clothing and you know how hard she would try to make something that looks good on you.” Celestia pointed

“No, she would make something very girlish like that abomination in your magic!” Chara yelled.

“Is there a problem?” Link’s voice spoke from the other side of the bathroom door.

“No, nothing wrong, just Chara being her stubborn self.” Celestia said with a slightly sad sigh. She looks back at Chara and rolls her eyes. “While most of us have our… privates hidden in our fur, they won’t take it kindly in seeing you.” Celestia said as she started putting Chara in the dress.

“Noooooo, my reputation of badassery!” Chara protested.

“Not in this Canterlot.” Link said with a soft chuckle behind the door.

“But I am a badass, look at all the nobles trying to kill me.” Chara said as Celestia finished putting the dress on.

“That’s not being a badass, that’s being an idiot.” Link commented with a sigh. “But I guess our new friend might disagree with what I said.”

Chara is blushed with a red face.

“It’s ok to come in now.” Celestia said, allowing Link to come in. “Think of it this way, Chara. You might attract your special somepony.” he said jokingly.

Chara blushes even more, thinking about why didn’t she choose to be evil. “I’m pretty sure evil wouldn’t wear pink..” she mumbled.

Celestia went silent for a while. “...Chara.. If you decided to be evil, you would break my heart..” Celestia said.

“Good ears.” Link commented.

“I promise not to do anything intended to harm you in anyway.” Chara said, Celestia gave her a firm stare.

“Nor will you hurt any other Celestias unless they were evil as well, I don’t mind you slaying evil versions of me.” Celestia said.

“Ok, I promise I won’t harm any perfectly good versions of you.” Chara said.

“Not every Celestia is perfect, Chara, even if there is a tiny bit of bad in their life. Make sure you do a thorough background check, ok? I don’t need you coming home radiating of evil deeds.” Celestia said then gave a motherly glare. “I know what you’re trying to do, Chara. You’re trying to find a loophole.”

“I promise as long as I don’t see a level of violence on them. “ Chara said, making Celestia sigh.

“Just… use good judgement, not because an evil displaced told you so. Actually..” Celestia began as she levitating a ring over to Chara.

“Oooh, what’s this?” Chara asked.

“Just a small present, it's not much though, just a small ring that will tell the guards you’re under my protection and you can go anywhere you want.” Celestia with a gentle smile.

Chara then had a smile worthy of the Grinch, but a stern motherly glare from Celestia made her think twice.

Celestia suddenly drops it as she felt some a sudden shift in the air, Chara quickly catches the ring.

“..was that your friend I just felt slam into my universe?” Celestia asked.

“Yyyeaa, that sounds about right, she has the subtlety of a rampaging bull.” Chara said.

Celestia decides to walk out of the bathroom and into one of the balconies of Canterlot Castle, wondering where this disturbance could be. With a small thought, she allowed it through.

“Hello Celly!” I call out as I enter the palace through Celestia’s shadow. “Hey, where is Chara and Link? You’ll never guess what happened. Just a little bit ago while I was waiting for one of those two to call, a pony in this world used my token… This is the world of those two right? I can feel that Triforce piece.” With that I pull out my mini dungeon heart talisman I use as a token.

Chara is seen hiding behind a pillar while Link came into view.

“Ah, you mean this?” Celestia said as she levitated a copy of my token. “When Chara got home, I had set up a barrier. Once she gave me some answers and seeing that Link didn’t say anything bad about you, I decided to let you in. So welcome to Equestria.” Celestia said with a smile.

“That’s nice. I just wanted to talk to you because little Chara and Link were talking about punishment because she was in contact with me and I just wanted to make sure you knew she wasn’t doing anything evil.” I say as I pull out a plush toy. “Also this is the pony that summoned me… Thought you might want to meet him because he summoned me to make me summon up demons and monster to destroy you guys so that, and I quote, ‘Place the crown on a unicorn head where it belongs’. Guy even had an earth pony in a cage and tried to sell me that guys soul for my power.” I say as the dollified noble was shivering but otherwise trying to play dead.

“Oh for my name’s sakes.” Celestia said with a groan. “Probably more of those stupid cultists..” she said as a tiny spark was seen on her mane.

Chara is peaking from out from behind the pillar. Link is a little worried about the earth pony that was mentioned.

“That sounds about right. He’s not being as chatty as he was before.” I say as I squeeze him a few times making him give off a few squeeks. “But just so we’re clear this is the guy turned into a plush toy. He can move and talk I think he’s just playing dead out of fear.”

Chara breaks down laughing and falls out from behind the pillar at the sight of the noble squeaking like a chew toy.

“For a moment there, I thought that was one of those voodoo dolls much like the ones my sister Luna played with when we were young.” Celestia said as she moved closer to the doll. “Now, listen here. Nightmare moon is no longer around, only Luna. As long as she my sister remains, we will continue to share equality with us both, I will not shift the balance. Do I make myself clear?” Celestia said to the doll.

“You lie, solar tyrant, our goddess will return!” The doll said with a voice that sounded like if he was one of the chipmunks. Celestia’s eye twitched.

“Oh? Then I suppose you want Eternal Night, hmm? Allow nature to die off without my sun’s nutrition? Because that’s exactly that will happen, you and my little ponies will end up dead because of lack of food!” Celestia said angrily, then stopped herself to allow herself to calm down. Meanwhile Chara is laughing her butt off.

“H-he sounds like Alvin!” Chara said with a snicker and gasping for breath, she was holding her aching sides.

Link walked up to the doll. “Plus, even if she does managed to return, she’ll suffer the same fate as before, either being purified by the elements of harmony or burned away by my sword.”

“She will return, there is one piece left, even with all your attempts.” the doll said as it points a hoof at Chara’s shadow, making Celestia turn to look at her. Chara looks like a deer caught in the headlights.

“That may be true, however I believe she has a good control over it.” Celestia said, filing the info for later. Chara winces a little, I hear someone scream for Chara to get the buck out of there.

I look over at Chara’s shadow but I don’t say anything about it. “Well anyways, he will stay like this forever unless I either remove the curse or you blast him with the orbital friendship cannon. Considering he’s your little pony I’ll let you decide. Do I change him back or not.”

“Usually a good spanking would set my little ponies straight.” Celestia said as Chara cringed at the memory. “But I believe he’s too far gone as he blindly follows a dead cult. As much as it pains me, you may do as you wish with him, either you can somehow humble him and get this silly cultist nonsense out of his mind, or you could apply something more effective by your choice.” Celestia said as she looked at the doll with sad eyes, however the doll looked back with hatred.

“Humble? Well I have a daycare for my minions to drop off their kids. I bet being the plaything of drooling babies will be humbling.” I say thoughtfully.

“Oh dear Hylia..” Link said before chuckling in amuse.

“OUR GODDESS WILL END YOU, ALIEN!” The doll squak before having a passfier put into its mouth by Celestia.

“If you’re gonna throw a fit like a filly, you’re gonna be treat like one too.” Celestia said mockingly.

“You know, I would feel bad for you if I hadn’t my mind become a literal drumming kit for one of you.” Chara said, looking down at him with a neutral expression.

“...Let me show you something little toy.” I say as the ground splits open for one of my portals and I mentally call out through it. “I faced your goddess in my world when she came for a powerful and evil artifact in my care. And I made her my bitch!” At this a foreboding presence filled the air. Once Celestia knew well and she backed away from the portal with wide eyes. “She works for me now. Look, see for yourself and know that if yours is brought back and and even if she wanted to save you,” Nightmare’s dark form came forth and bowed her head to me. “Know that she can’t. And whatever happens to you from now till I deem you truly repentant is in my paws.”

“T-there’s more of my g-goddess?” The doll said in confusion. “...No, this is a false!” he said with a groan.

Suddenly, Chara’s shadow pops out from behind. “Hmph, I’m no longer yours to worship. Do you even know how much fear, pain and hatred my hosts bottled? It’s enough to last till the till the end of my eternal life, keheheha~”

Celestia give Shadow a glare, causing the weaker version of Nightmare to quickly hide.

Link groaned. “I still remember the nightmares she gave me in the past when she tried to control me.” Link said.

“W-what.. But.. all those years our cultist members tried to bring you back, all the fear we allowed.. All the nightmares we created j-just for you…” The doll said with disbelief.

“She’s just like my windigo Mr. Freeze. He serves me because I feed him. He forsook his old life because I was the easiest supply of negativity that wouldn’t run out. Nightmare only had one use for you and that was food. But now she has a better option.” I tell the doll as I beacon my Nightmare and embrace her. Using my power to feed her negativity to make her feel better.

“Back when Nightmare was in her full form, she was true to her name, a Nightmare, she grew strong with the fear of the dreamer, she was crazy and immature during our first encounter. The second time she came around, she had wised up but she was a lunatic, no pun intended toward your sister, Celestia.” Link said.

“No harm done, Link.” Celesta said.

The doll fell down onto his front hoofs, he looked so broken but had a little bit of defiance within him, the poor guy looked like he wanted to cry but couldn’t due to his current.

“The first time I fought her, she brought the only person I hate with all of my heart and soul. Second time we fought, we were more evenly matched, that is until she placed a curse on me, thinking that pain was hilarious.” Chara said with a shuddered while the Shadow giggled in amusement. “Shut up you..It’s not funny, it fucking hurt...” she said to her shadow, causing Celestia to glare at the shadow.

“Well looks like he’s already on the first step. But he’s still going to get it till he gets in.” I say as I let Nightmare go and reach into my portal and pull out one of the changeling, dragon hybrids from the daycare. “Hey there little stinker! Look at that little dolly over there! Go get it girl! Go get the dolly!” I say excitedly and placed the baby down. She then giggled happily and toddled after the doll who screamed and tried to run away but I used my magic to make him trip. Before he could get up the kid grabbed him with her forehooves. As anyone would do in this situation he panicked and started screaming for help. Screams that were quickly muffled when the baby crammed his head in her mouth and started using him as a pacifier.

Link couldn’t help but laugh, his didn’t last long as the little hybrid reminded him of someone.

“Help-help-heeelp!” The doll said, sounding nothing but muffling.

Chara is laughing to the side.

“Don’t worry. By this time she had just been fed so you’re safe.” I teased. Of course I made sure he was too big to swallow.

“So.. is there anything we can do for you before you go, Rin? I mean you’re a goddess, you must need temples everywhere.” Chara asks sarcastically

“Wha- Chara, I don’t think that’d be wise, the ponies might be offended by this.. I mean, the history they grew up and such… Not only that but such a temple might attract the wrong kind of attention..” Link said nervously before looking at me. “No offense…”

“None taken. I have almost no worshipers throughout the multiverse for undeath and darkness. Most of my worshipers follow me for my aspect of lost knowledge. Mostly wizards and historians. And lots of Twilights.” I say with a shrug as I pick up the baby and cradle it in my tails. “Though that last one is for my library filled with books from countless worlds. Bigger than all of Canterlot.” I say with pride.

With a bright flash of light, Twilight appeared. “Book.. senses.. Tingling!” The purple mare said as she looked straight at me.

“... AAaand here comes nerd-a-geddon..” Link said with a groan, causing Twilight to look at him.

“I told you not to call me that!” Twilight said annoyingly.

“Huh.. I didn’t know she had a book sense, did you know she had a book sense, Link? Cause I didn't know she had a book sense..” Chara asked.

“...Ya, I was just telling them as a goddess most of my worshipers focus on the aspect of lost knowledge and that I had a library where the first floor alone is bigger than Canterlot, palace included. Field with books from countless worlds and growing every day.” I tell Twilight.

“C-c-countless?” Twilight said with her eyes gleaming with interest, Link reaches out and pulls her away.

“Ok! No need to have a nerdgasm, Twilight.” Link said, earning a huff from Twilight.

“Oh yes. In fact an entire magic school, a floating castle, was moved to my world just to get close to that library. So it’s usually filled with magic enthusiasts and experts that often get into discussions on various fields of magic. Since they come from who knows how many worlds, most likely some you’ve never even heard of.”

At this moment Chara is looking between Twilight's back hoof. “Huh..There's no puddle here yet.” Chara said in confusion.

Twilight blushed furiously. “W-what? No!” she exclaimed in embarrassment, but her blush vanished when the fox goddess mentioned books of magic, it even earned a tiny bit of interest from Link.

“...Would you by chance have books from the Elder Scrolls universe?” Link asked.

“Chara, that was completely uncalled for.” Celestia said as she wiggled a spray bottle of blue liquid threateningly at Chara.

“No, but there isn’t an elder scrolls spell that exists, except for created ones that I don’t have a spell that does the same or better. Dungeons and Dragons and Pathfinder spells to. The magic casters of my city also like to gather and explore and invent new spells all the time.” I answer.

“The reason why I asked is that I can’t regenerate my magic until I either drink a potion or sleep. Oh, sure, there’s Zecora but it’d be nice to regain it back if I ever run out.” Link said.

“Hold on.” I say as I summon a crystal ball that shows a fox on it. Everyone couldn’t help but notice the towering book shelves that extend for as far as the eye can see. “Are there any books in right now for mana recovery?” I asked the fox.

“One moment mistress.” The fox replied and moves away from the orb.

The bookworm is staring and drooling at the sight of this.

“Down, Twilight, down..” Celestia said with a giggle.

“Mistress.” The fox said when she appeared on screen. "We have three thousand seven hundred and two books about mana recovery checked in at the moment ranging from meditation and alchemy to siphoning it from others while in combat. This of course only applies to the first floor.”

“The further up you go the more dangerous the knowledge so only the first floor is free for all. If you want anything from the higher floors you need to be tested to be sure you’re of the right mind to not misuse it.” I explained why it was only the first floor.

“It’s only for the sake of getting back my magic faster when I’m fighting for my life or protecting ponyville. Especially when I’m in my Fierce Deity Form.” Link explained. The foxed moved away again and came back with a book and held it up for them to see. The Art of Runes and Enchanting Items.

“This book has a chapter on making a ring that will suck in the mana in the air around its wearer and use it to replenish their reserves when they are less than full.” The fox replied.

“That sounds perfect. Anything you need me to do to get it? A test of trust or anything?” Link said with an excited smile on his face.

“No this book is safe enough to be on the first floor. Nothing here is meant to be particularly dangerous, requiring little power as the enchantments are beginner level. And if you botch the process all you get is a ring. The magic would just fizzle out. But you will need to come over and get a library card to check anything out.” The fox answered.

“I was hoping not to go back there..” Link said with a sigh. “But rules are rules after all.”

Meanwhile, Celestia had dragged Twilight out.

“Rules are placed for a reason. Some clever thief could fake a card over a communications orb or magic mirror.” The fox replied.

“Sounds like you need some kind of Detect spell if that happens again, I’d lend you my Lens Of Truth but it’s the only one i’ve got.” Link said.

“We do. But tell me, if you watched tv through your lens of truth, would you not be able to see what’s on the screen because it’s not real?” I ask him. “Will it’s magic reach across dimensions to check if what you see on the screen is true?”

“I don’t know as TVs don’t exist in this version of Equestria, but if I ever get the chance, i’ll be sure to test it.” Link said.

“Well that principle applies. Trying to check if something is real in another universe by seeing in on a screen doesn't work.” I reply. “If anything the orb or mirror would look blank because the image on it isn’t really there in front of you. Understand the problem there?”

“Understandable, it's like looking through a camera at a monitor and you see it flickering.” Link said as he thought about it.

“Anyways you don’t need to go back if that is all you want. We have tables enchanted with scribing spells that act as copy machines. You don’t need the book just the part that talks about that ring. You can get that delivered as it’s a first floor book. You just need to pay for the paper and ink for your copies.” I tell him.

“In bits or would you accept rupees? I’ve got both.” Link said as he opened up his side pouch.

“Gems are worthless in my world as anything but materials in crafting and spells.” I answer.

“Even if they tend to make a little note or a jingle?” Link said as he pulled out twenty bits in one hand and a red rupee in another. “Me and Chara are loaded with Bits due to my rupees being rare in this equestria.” Link said.

“Materials in a musical instrument then?” I say with a shrug. At that moment a fox popped out of the portal with a rolled up piece of paper and ran up to link.

“Five bits please” The fox said holding up a fox shaped piggy bank. Link deposits five bits into the bank then puts away the red rupee. The eyes of the fox glowed green and made a soft ding.

“I was honestly hoping to put the rupees to good use besides being exchanging the rupees for bits.” Link said.

“Thank you for your patronage.” The fox said as she gave Link his paper and quickly vanished back into the black pit.

“Problem is I can’t gage its value right now and I don’t want to cheat you.” I say as I look up. “Libraries shouldn’t cheat others, right?” Looking up they saw Twilight had snuck back in using magic to stick to the ceiling.

“Spider-pony.” Link said jokingly as he gently put the scroll into the pocket dimension of his pouch. “As for you cheating me, I highly doubt you could. After all, my rupees can only get bits, one green rupee gets me twenty bits.” Link explained.

“We can talk later or you can come over and talk trade as my city supplied rare materials for the many wizards living there.” I tell him.

Suddenly Rin is hug tackled by Twilight “Mine!” Twilight screams with that crazy look in her eyes.

Link mumbles something under his breath before picking her up and off of Rin. “Twilight….” Link said with an annoyed face and a sigh. “I know you love knowledge, but your friends are more important.” Link said with a cringe at what he said, he’s only saying it according to Chara’s explanation of the timeline.

“Man she’s already like this and I haven’t even gone into the fact that Starswirl the Bearded lives there to.” Rin said.

“H-he is!? Where!? Tell-me-tell-me-tell-me!” She said and flailed in Link’s hands, she was oblivious to what Link had said to her.

“By Farore’s wind, just go home, Twilight.” Link said with a groan.

“My city of Alexandria is in another dimension. Normally you can use one of my temples to go there whenever you want but apparently it wouldn’t be welcomed in this world. But Celestia has my token which can also be used to visit so maybe if you’re good she’ll let you go on a field trip.” I answer.

“Yay!” Twilight said in cheer before being turned around by Link to face him.

“But you must promise me something. Remember the multiverse theory I told you about? Don’t try to see Rin’s Twilight, otherwise they might get paranoid.” Link said, he would of mentioned the changelings but that event hasn’t happened yet.

“Oh that’s not an issue. I have many Twilight worshipers across the worlds so there are normally several Twilights in my library every day.” I say with a paw wave.

“I just don’t want anything screwy going wrong.” Link said. He would of pointed out that Chara prevented a few of Twilight’s friendship lessons, but he believes Twilight isn’t ready for future knowledge. I tilted her head to the side questioningly and brush my mind against his as I did when he was a wolf, asking to take a look. Link opened his mind up to me but a lot faster than before.

“Is that all you’re worried about? I’m sure Celestia can be convinced to have her wait. Besides the Twilights never talk about their lives there. Not even once, not with all of those books to talk about.” I say telepathically so no others can hear.

“It’s just her and the mane five are supposed to be the heroes of this world, but due to so many differences here compared to other equestrias, I had to step in and try to keep it from going too far from the original, i’d never forgive myself if anything were to happen to them, me and Chara already have our hands full because of the wild zelda monsters and the Twinrovas constantly trying to take us down.” Link said telepathically back.

“...Twilight, why don’t you go home and hang out with your friends. I’m sure they might like to hear about the stuff you’ve learned and I need to have a chat with Celestia and Link alone please.” I say to Twilight.

“Aww but I wanted to see your library..” Twilight said with a frown, but she nodded in acknowledgement. She suddenly flashes out of sight via her magic.

“Link… the show is one world in the multiverse. All of them have differences from different choices. A world where everyone’s gender is swapped, a world filled with superheroes and villains. This isn’t that show and I’ve seen the worlds of displaced that change things all the time and Twilight and her friends still save the day. Not because of changes in their environment but because it’s their nature to help those in need. If anything the monster attacks could very well drive them to be better. You don’t need to treat the timeline like it’s made of glass.” I say in exasperation.

Link reached up and rubbed the back of his head. “Just being cautious, that’s all.” Link said in a slightly nervous tone of voice, he then moved his hand to his chin to think about my words. “I’ll trust your judgement.” Link said after a moment. “By the way, I know you’re some powerful dungeon keeper, but perhaps I could give you one of my masks? I mean most of them are useless and I have given a few away to Displaced I meet.”

“I can’t really think of one I’d want myself. Trixie has been wanting to learn size magic but mine has too great a mana cost for a unicorn. So maybe the giant's mask?” I say with a shrug.

“I can let you borrow the Giant’s mask, I’ve only used it once. A small warning though, the moment you put on the mask, it will start to drain your magic passively once you’ve grown to full size.” Link warned as he pulled out a weird shaman mask of stone.

“That’s fine. I can reverse engineer its magic to make more like I did with the beenades from that Terraria displaced.” I say as I summon ten golden grenades with black rings around it. “And made it into a spell to. Always fun to summon a swarm of angry wasps on the bad guys. Want a few?”

“Beenades? I’ve never played Terraria but I’m guessing they explode out bees?” Link guessed the obvious answer, but he sounded like he wanted to make sure. He reaches out and takes the Beenades before placing them in his pouch.

“Yes and then the bees actively seek out your enemies even if the beenade didn’t go off near them. Then they repeatedly sting them.” I answer.

Link laughed at that. “Like releasing a bee in Link to the past, but a whole a lot more.” he said with a smile, knowing he’s gonna have fun with those.

“My favorite spell so far. They move around any cover and crawl inside armor so there are few ways to defend against it.” I laugh as I take the giant’s mask. “Now Celestia, can I trust that you won’t punish Chara for being friends with me?” I ask.

“At first I was, but having listening to you for a while, I think I can trust you, you’ve been very well behaved since you arrived here.” Celestia said with a smile.

“That’s good to hear, I don’t like it when others are punished unjustly, especially when it’s my fault.” I say as I scratch the back on my head.

“There is something that bothers me and it’s the titles Chara has mentioned.. Why is it forbidden knowledge, Undeath and darkness?” Celestia asked.

“I was displaced as a dungeon keeper. Dungeon keeper is the original it’s good to be bad game. You play as an evil wizard that builds a dungeon and attracts bad people and monsters to be your minions. As such I can literally only use dark magic. There is no other choice for me.” I say with a shrug. “So when I ascended, darkness, forbidden knowledge, undeath and monsters were right there with lost knowledge, pranks, games and dark heroes.”

“Dark Heroes?” Celestia asked questioningly.

“...Batmain? You know, those that use the darkness to help others. Those that got cursed like vampires but instead of hurting others they use the power they get to save lives.” I answer. “Like Chara, she got a dark hand and she’s been using it to help ponies right?...Well okay she might be more of an anti-hero but do you understand what I mean?”

“Yes she has, although there have been times she started causing trouble for the nobles, I understand most of them are spoiled but it’s a work in progress in straightening them out. Thing is, they have killed Chara multiple times since she likes to point out their lies.” Celestia explained

“Ug, I know what you mean. My world’s version of your mother, my adopted sister, commission me to make a cursed quill so when they use it, the disembodied voice of Morgan Freeman narrates everything they do for days. It’s impossible to lie or keep secrets with it because the voice points it out. This was for the ponies trying to trick her to get power or bits. They did not like that at all. But it did let me get good at using the healing applications of necromancy to purge poison from the body.” I reply.

“Necromancy can heal?” Celestia asked in surprise. “That’s a new one.”

“It’s mostly medicinal in nature. In order to create undead one must have a strong understanding of how the body works. Killing curses can also be used to cure cancer. Masters can cast discriminating death spells over someone to kill specific things like diseases while leaving the host body alone. Mending flesh and bone is easy. It can keep someone alive, even when they should have died and take away pain so that they can be operated on and live on their own. Scan the body for what’s ailing it. A good necromancer is among the best doctors.” I answer.

Celestia was opened up to a whole new world. “And all my life of seeing it, I always thought it was bad, it would often not allow spirits to rest knowing that their body was being used for the wrong purposes.” She said before giving her a moment to think. “And what does your world’s Celestia’s mother say about the necromancy part, I mean when you built and reanimated something to life for Chara?” she said, it felt odd saying her own name as if it wasn't hers.

“Oh, she knew and didn’t care. Yes, I create undead all the time but I don't abuse it. Mostly they’re empty shells used for labor or law enforcement. Most who don’t know any better will preach about burial rights but I’ve spoken to the dead and they generally don’t care. The corpse is just trash the soul leaves behind. If you died and your remains can be used as a rescue worker in an environment that’s not safe for living beings or a shield that will take a killing blow that would have struck an innocent pony would you mind it not being buried?” I asked.

“In a way, it's like they’re sacrificing without needing to do it.” Celestia said then sighed when I got done explaining how it works. “And you haven’t gotten one angry spirit?”

“No, not one. I have ghosts but only ones that come and work for me of their own free will. If it’s a spirit that needs help crossing over I help them. There are other professions necromancers can do good in as well. There are worlds out there where necromancers are used to summon dead victims to catch killers or fix problems before anyone else can suffer from what killed them.” I tell her. “Don’t get me wrong, you can do horrible things with necromancy but if you think about it the same can be said for about any school of magic.”

“Thank you for explaining, I’m a lot more at ease now. You’ve given me a new enlightenment on what Necromancy can be used for, it’ll take me awhile to be comfortable with it. By the way, if it's not too much to ask. If you and Chara go build-a-corpse workshop again, be sure to remind her to clean up afterwards. The smell tends to make me sick sometimes, no offense.” Celestia said.

“Sorry, I’ve gone nose blind to the smell of death and decay a long time ago. But sure, I’ve found some creative ways to use some of my dungeon keeper abilities. Combining the lava trap with my ability to sense things underground like water allows me to create relaxing hot springs. I’m sure she won’t mind taking a bath in one of those. And if she does I can drag her in kicking and screaming.” I say jokingly.

“She hates baths and she’ll probably fight you tooth and nail just to avoid it,” Celestia said as she giggled softly. She still remembers the first time she gave Chara a bath, boy did she scream.

“Kicking and screaming it is. Don’t worry, my magical reserves are larger than yours and I used to babysit my worlds you and Lulu all the time. I think I can handle it.” I say with a laugh.

“You’ve got it a little easy, I can’t be in my goddess form without accidentally harming my little ponies. “ Celestia said, she looks toward the sky to check on the time, it's not quite time to lower the sun.

“Well, it's been fun but I should be heading back. It’s nap time.” I say as I gesture to the baby. The dollified pony still had his head trapped in her mouth and he was punching her in the face as hard as he could. But being a doll his body was now made of cloth and fluff stuffing so even then she was still drowsing off. Completely unbothered by the strikes.

“Alrighty, don’t be stranger if you ever want to come back. Will you be able to return home safely? ” Celestia asked

“Please don’t. I can use my dungeon heart as a beacon to get home on my own but if you force me back with the words I’ll be sucked in through my portal like it was a black hole and I'm carrying a baby right now.” I tell her.

“Oh? Who’s the lucky one?” Link asked jokingly as he got up from his sitting position, causing a few bones to pop. I give him the biggest deadpan as I hold the baby in front of his face. “Kidding, kidding.” Link said with a nervous chuckle. Ya, I’m not fooled.

“Oh and before I go. That pink dress Chara is wearing… Not really her.” I say as I use Inspiration Manifestation to create several pieces of clothes more suited to the tomboy.

“To be honest, it was all I had. Chara simply refuses to allow Rarity to make her any clothes, even when it's not a dress.” Celestia pointed out.

“Well now she had lots of pants, shirts, overalls and pretty much anything I can think of that fits her rough and tumble personality better. So now she has another choice than frilly or naked.” I say as I move to leave through my portal.

Link unfolds the scroll to take a good look at it. Seems simple enough. Just take a gold ring and carve this one rune into it while channeling magic into it. “Thanks again for the scroll.” Link said as he rolls it up and returns it to his pouch, he waves his hand with a happy smile, knowing that his battles will be a little bit easier.

“No need to thank me. You did pay for it.” I say as I use a tail to toss the token the cultist used to Link seeing as Celestia already had one that Chara can use and with that I and Nightmare vanish into the darkness and the portal closes, leaving the floor back in pristine condition as it was before it tore open.
