***Asphyxious pov.***

I ended up outside the everfree holding Vix in my arms in worry and fear. I turn back into my human form and held her. “Please be okay… Vix Please be alive…” I said as tears ran down my face.

“I don’t want to lose you to.” I told her putting my head to her’s. Two years in the breach and for what? I couldn’t do anything for anyone, I couldn’t even stop it let alone end it. What was the point…

“Asphyxious?” I looked up and the sound of my name and saw Twilight looking at me in worry. “What happened who is this girl?” I just looked at her and Vix, what could I say? It simple really no need to hide anything.

“My daughter, She’s my daughter Twilight.” I said then noticed something in her hands, it was a box. Oh crap how long was I gone for!? We get moving as Twilight explained everything I missed after that party with the eggs and finding out I had to go back to that stupid war.

By the sounds of it they found the tree and are working to get the keys. But don’t know what they are. We ended up staying at Fluttershy as she made me tea and I told them what happened. “And that when I left with Vix.” I said as I looked at her in worry resting on the couch.

“Oh my I’m sorry you went through so much.” Said Fluttershy in worry but I smiled. There no need for to get worked up she was going to have a baby soon anyway. I looked at my tea thinking what should I do now? That when I saw Vix start to wake up.

“Vix, are you alright?” I asked putting my tea down and walking over to her.

“Wh-where am I? Where’s Time!?” Vix tried to get up, but couldn’t because of the pain.

“Easy, it okay he’s gone. You're safe now just rest. You're in Fluttershy cottage. There nowhere safer. Don’t mind that she and Twilight look part dragon.” I said as I ease her back down to rest. I really hope she’d be alright, I hope nothing happens to her.

“Is there anything we can get you? Water something to eat?” Asked Fluttershy standing next to me, I was glad she was here. It might help calm Vix down a little.

But Vix just seethed. “Why are you doing this? I was supposed to get my revenge!” I looked sadly at her I did the only thing I could and hugged her.

“I’m sorry, I tried to stop them but couldn’t.” I told her as I held her in my arms. “I just want to keep you safe, that’s all. No more fighting, no more wars, I just want you to be happy.”

“Why? What do you get?” I looked at her as she said that and smiled.

“I’m your father. I'm meant to look after you and keep you safe. I’m sure it’s what your mother Warzone would have wanted.” I tell her moving some hair out of her face. I saw her eyes water, I don’t think she understands way but I just hold her in my arms in a hug.

“What’s a ‘mother’ and ‘father’?” Vix asked.

“They are the ones who bring you into the world. I and Warzone helped bring you into the world. I’m sorry I wasn’t around when you were born.” I said as I looked at Twi And Fluttershy as they nod and go into the next room. “Tell me how old are you Vix?”

“Uh… Two years, void time…” Vix said. I raised an eyebrow at this. Really she’s two? No way she at least seven years old at the most.

“What’s that in human years?” I asked smiling at her.

“Yeah. I’m Displacer, I age faster than you.” Vix said. “Warzone told me she was a week old when she fully matured.” Wow, just how old was Warzone when we… I don’t want to think about.

“That going to be hard for everyone around here to belive so we’ll say you're seven years old okay?” I asked her rubbing her head.

“But that would be lying.” Vix said simply.

“I understand that but think about it from a nondisplacer point of view. No one is going to believe you’re two years old no matter if it is the truth. So it be easier to give them a number that be easier for them to understand right?” I tell her. Something tells me I’ll need my hoard mates to help with Vix growing up.

“But that’s impractical, if I was seven I’d be fully grown.” Vix said, confused. Okay Void dwellers are messed up. I think as I think about this.

“Okay… I think I understand but for the rest of us it takes us 20 years from when we’re born to become an full grown adult.” I explain, something tell me we both a have a lot to learn.

“But I wont me an adult for one hundred years…” Vix said, even more confused. I just stare at her.

“Are you… Playing a prank on me?” I asked just as confused as her.

“What’s a prank? Is it a body part on you?” I just sigh as I rub my eye.

“Twilight I think it better for you to explain stuff to Vix I’m bad at it.” I call out and pull a funny face at Vix.

“Are you insulting me?” Vix asked.

“No I’m just having a hard time understanding some of the things you're telling me.” I tell her as I look at her eyes.

“I said my body would fully mature in a few months, then I’d stop growing. But I’d only be considered an adult when I’m one hundred years old.” Vix explained.

“Okay how many human years is one year for you?” I asked hoping to simplify things. Why am I worrying about this? It not like she’d be looking for a boyfriend right away or anything.

“Same amount of time. Warzone, or ‘mother’ as you put her, said we based our years on humans. She also said it was strange I was aging slowly since it only took a week for her to turn out how she was when she was taking care of me.”

“I see, I wish I could of been there for the both of you.” I said sadly thinking about what happened. Then smiled as I had an idea. “Say, would you like to live with me? I’m sure Pupa would be happy to have a little sister.”

“I don’t have anywhere to go, so fine.” Vix said, shrugging. Just then her stomach growled I could not help but find it cute the way she acted next.

Vix screamed a bit. “What is going on!? Am I about to explode!?” I couldn’t help but laugh and calm her down.

“Relax you're just hungry, that’s all. I’ll see if Fluttershy as anything to eat. You just wait here and rest.” I tell her and get up that when Twilight rush in.

“I heard a scream what happen!?!” Twilight yelled in panic then saw the amused look on my face. She blushed at this as I tell her what happened. Life has gotten a lot more interesting.

“Feel better now?” I asked as she was eating a sandwich Fluttershy made and drinking a glass of water. Twilight was still in embarrassed about what happened before.

“Indeed.” Vix said monotonously.

“You're cute when you try and act like nothing happened.” I said smiling as Fluttershy giggled. We all talked for the day I learned more about Vix and her about me. We then left once she was ready to go and walked to ponyville with Twilight so I can use the Teleporter network I had put in town so I can come and go from my den with no lost time.

“So just a heads up, first time going through these things is a bit rocky. But you get used to it. Ready?” I asked holding my hand out to Vix.

“I’ll be fine.” Vix said boredly. I just looked at her still holding out my hand just to be on the safe side. Vix looked at it them me rolled her eyes as she took my hand.

“Here go.” I said and put my hand on the crystal. Next think I knew we were at my den. “You okay Vix?” I asked looking at her as she held onto my arm.

“Yeah, I’m fine.” Vix said, sounding sick.

“Don’t worry the dizziness will pass.” I tell her as I take her somewhere to lay down. I then noticed the way Sonay and the rest of my hoard mates looking at me. Oh I had a lot of explaining to do… Umm, oh play dead! No that will never work…

“Asphyxious who is this young girl?” Asked Sonay as she walked up to us. I sighed no way around it so I mate as well tell them.

“She my daughter. Vix Hellbringer meet Sonay Hellbringer.” I said as Sonay smiled at me.

“Well, I guess it fine seeing as you now gave me your last name.” The pink Dragoness said smiling and walked off. What the hell did I just say? I think blinking to myself then felt a pull on my arm. I looked down and saw Pupa.

“Daddy who that?” Pupa asked looking at Vix.

“Well Pupa this is your little sister Vix, Vix say hello to your big sister Pupa.” I said and saw the way Pupa eyes went huge.

“What is a sister?” Vix asked. Pupa then hugged Vix and screamed happily.

“I got a sister!” Pupa yelled as she held Vix in a loving hug. I could not help but smile at them. Things are going to get more interesting around here. I thought as I watched the two talking.

“What is a sister?” Vix asked again.

“A sister is a sibling who is ever born from the same mother or have the same father. Pupa is my daughter just like you Vix.” I explain as Pupa wanted to play with Vix and show her to the rest of their brothers and sisters. I watched with a smile as Pupa walked off with Vix, I’m sure those two will be fine. That when I felt Chrysalis hands on my back.

“We missed you~” She purred into my ear, god damnit.

***Vix pov.***

Pupa was almost dragging me. I didn’t understand how this… Sister could be so alive. “Where are you taking me?”

“The Maidens Hatchery, that where all the toys are and all our other brothers and sisters.” Pupa said smiling with a buzz of her wings. Pupa looked older and taller but didn’t seem to act it.

“There are more?” I asked. If there were more like this one I’d lose it.

“Just my 20 brothers and sisters on mommy side. Then there the seven eggs Sonay had. Oh and miss shy going to have a baby to and so is lady Faust and Celestia. I can’t wait to meet all my new baby brothers and sisters can you?” She asked excitedly with a smile. We then reach this Maiden's Hatchery and the room was huge.

“Hardly…” I grumble while rolling my eyes.

“You don’t like it?” Pupa asked blinking at me then smiled. “Want to go and play a joke on daddy?”

“What’s a joke?” I asked again. Why do these strangers need so many words? And why is she smiling at me like that?

“Oh you're going to love this.” Pupa said as she took my hand and started to run.

“Okay that the last bolt.” Said Pupa as she worked on the chair by the workbench. She then ran over to me and hide under the blanket with me. “Okay don’t make a sound this will be really funny.”

I didn’t respond and just stared at my sister blankly. That when Asphyxious ‘father’ walked in and sighed. “Those girls are going to kill me one day.” He said then went down to set on the chair it then gave away.

“Damnit!?” He yelled as he fell on the floor, Pupa started giggling at this.

“Damn what?” I asked. I didn’t see why hurting the father man was amusing. Are Pupa and him enemies?

“Oh I know who did this? Where are you, you little troublemaker.” Asphyxious said playfully as Pupa was trying not to laugh. That when he pulled the blanket off of us and smiled. “I found you.”

“You’ll never catch us!” Pupa yelled laughing as she grabbed my hand and started to run away.

“You won’t get away!” He yelled after us but didn’t sound angry.

I didn’t find any of this amusing. I felt bored, and tired. That when I was picked up by Asphyxious as he held me in the air still running after Pupa. “You're not getting away!” He said with a smile running after her as Pupa was laughing.

Asphyxious then picked Pupa up who was laughing as he turned around and went back to his workbench. “So now you had your fun it time for spellcraft.” He said calmly as he walked.

“But daddy spellcraft is boring.” Complained Pupa as she pouted.

“What is spellcraft?” I asked.

“It me teaching you how to use spells and how they work.” Father said calmly as he put us down and start to fix his chair. “You can stop a spell from being used if you know how they work and how to take it part.”

“Okay… What am I doing here?” I ask again. I have no use for these.

“What. Is there something wrong in spending time with my kids?” He asked smiling at us. Pupa just smiled as she took some paper and a pencil then started to draw spell runes.

“So what kind of magic and spells do you know?” He asked as he hand me a piece of paper and pencil to. “It’ll help me in teaching you some new ones or better your old spells.”

“What is magic?” I asked.

“You mean you don’t know how your powers work? I thought you was using magic.” Asphyxious said sounding surprised. “Can you show me how it works?”

“Oh course I can.” I said, holding my hand out so I could create my digi cannon… Only for nothing but a spark of blue to happen.

“Is something wrong Vix?” Asked Pupa who looked at me worried.

“N-no… I’m fine, it must have fizzled!” I said, holding back my panic. Remember what… Mother told you, breath, imagine, and think of something you hate. I did everything I was taught, and thought of Time Spinner as I tried to create my digi-cannon… My hand only sparked again.

“Hey there no need to push yourself maybe you’re still tired. You don’t need to-” Asphyxious said to me but I tried again.

“Why aren’t they working!? I’m supposed to be able to create weapons, and Dimension Morphing Jumpers.” I said, panic taking over.

“Vix calm down everything going to be okay.” Father said again to try and calm me as he held me in his arms. “It going to be fine.” He said running his hand through my hair. Pupa also join in and hugged me to.

“Don’t worry little sister, we’ll keep you safe.” Said Pupa as she held me tightly.

“But… My powers… What happened to them?” I’m so confused.

“I don’t know but you're not alone.” Father said smiling down at me. “Maybe we should take a break, dinner should almost be ready soon.” He told me as he rubbed my head.

“Fine…” I sighed. Besides… Mom, my powers were what defined me…

“Come on let go have dinner.” He said holding both my hand and Pupa as we walked down the hall. I didn’t understand why but it felt nice walking by his side.

Next up Asphyxious get an uninvited guest.
