Previous Chapter Next Chapter

(PoV: Shade)

Being the Lord of Hell and its demons is actually quite taxing. From reforming the Authority of Hell to fix its structural problems such as buildings being destroyed by tremors and such.

But that problem was solved by my new adviser, Discord. Turns out he's quite the adviser, knowing what to do when I don't is actually helpful and beneficial for the realm.

Speaking of realms, Discord had informed me of a chaos realm he goes to unwind from not causing mischief like he's suppose to. Apparently something had crossed through as well, allowing a total of two thousand, nine hundred and ninety nine chaos creatures to escape.

There are some that are perfectly harmless while others aren't, to which he explained their Classes as either Keter of Euclid.

Keter class beings are to be reported if found and neutralize the being. Some are invincible, from almost instantaneous regeneration of damaged tissue, to extremely hostile to the point of killing anything that moves.

So I had made a large building that could go on for miles, thanks to Discord for making the building endless in the inside. I had then assembled a group of elite soldiers from my army.

They worked in the shadow, all who have known them wouldn't remember who these demons were. They never existed.

A small welcome party had been thrown by Discord, he took the chance to explain what they were dealing with. And I had came up with a name for the group, Special Containment Procedure. The Foundation.

And that was about a month ago, a day after the birth of my son, Shadow Dusk but I like Dusk more than Shadow.

During the corresponding month, a lot of those weird creatures have been found. One in particular was a creature made entirely of cement, bringing it in was difficult.

The things is a living being when not in direct visual contact with anything, but blink and it's the last thing you'll do. It has been designated as SCP-173.

It was a horrifically busy month, though yesterday was...something. Nyx had found a small orange slime near Dusk’s crib.

What surprised me the most was that she said that it wasX playing with Dusk. I had taken a look at him and found nothing that could be harmful towards anyone.

In fact, I had taken a liking to it and so did Twilight, Nyx and even Dusk. So instead of locking it up, I had taken it home.

Today I had ultimately decided to leave Hell for a while and come back when I feel like it needs me. So, I had put on a shirt with the Deadpool logo on it. I had spent the majority of the day playing with Dusk and Nyx.

Mister Jelly was napping, I think. He had his eyes closed, so I think he is. Nyx thought it was a fitting name and so did I.

I had recently gotten those Alphabet block for Dusk and he seemed to like them. He seems to be developing some intelligence with those blocks, he had arranged them in alphabetical order.

I smiled at him and held out a hand for him. He looked at me curiously, then took hold of my hand.

“Dada.” I heard him say. Surprised didn't begin to explain how I felt when he said those words, his first words. Bringing him closer, I held him in my arms, cradling him and singing the small lullaby Twilight sang to him.

Slowly but surely he started to fall asleep.


After leaving Dusk in his crib, I left the room with Nyx and Jelly. Jelly knew when it was time to play with Dusk and when not to.

Picking up Nyx and Jelly, I walked towards the throne room. Arriving at the throne room and seeing the mane six together, I walked towards Twilight and placed Nyx on the ground, allowing her to run up to Twilight.

“Hi mom.” Nyx said, embracing Twilight. Twilight smiled and returned the warm embrace.

Twilight wore a lavender shirt with her cutie Mark on the center.

“Hey you two. Is it time to feed Dusk again?” Twilight asked. Nyx and I shook our heads no.

“It's not, but Dusk did something amazing.” I said to her. Nyx decided to shout the answer.

“He spoke his first words!” Nyx shouted with a smile. Twilight looked at me, seeing if it was a joke.

“He really did, sweetie.” I said with a small smile. Twilight sat there in silence while her friends congratulated us before leaving.

“I missed it!” Twilight suddenly shouted, eyes twitching with frazzled mane.

“Uh oh.” Nyx said as she slowly backed away.

“Twi, calm down.” I said to her.

“I can't.” She said, sadness clearly evident from her tone as she buried her face in her hands.

“What kind of Mother would miss her foal’s first words!?” She asked me.

“Twilight, just calm down.” I said again. I knew her sudden increase in work from the stupid nobels that moved to Ponyville to get on our good side would stress her out but I didn't think it was this bad.

“Mom, maybe we can go on break, you know like Spring Break.” Nyx suggested. I thought of where we could go if she would agree with Nyx’s idea and remembered Jace’s token.

I looked at Twilight, waiting for an answer from her. She looked at both me and Nyx, then sighed.

“If it means being with Dusk like a good mother should, then alright.” She said with a sad smile. I walked up to her and embrace her.

“You're a great mother, just look at Nyx. You raised her by yourself and she's a smart filly.” I said to her.

“I know, it's just that Dusk is our foal, our baby. Nyx is magically created filly that I love as a daughter and adopted her.” She said. I felt my shoulder get wet, I pulled my head back a little and saw that Twilight was crying.

I felt Nyx squeeze in the hug. And Jelly was on Twilight's mane. I looked at Twilight again, this time seeing a smile.

“I love you.” Twilight said.

“We love you too.” Me and Nyx said to her.


One hour later


We've managed to calm Twilight down and started packing. Twilight and Nyx had asked where we were going to which I answered with Memory lane.

Packing a few clothes bags of clothes, snacks and baby food, though Twilight still had to breastfeed Dusk. I then took out the small token he gave me and tossed it onto the ground.

A few seconds later, the token shook violently and morphed into an elevator. We all looked at it in confusion and I stepped closer to it.

The doors opened and showed a large living room with a family couch. The room was fitted with a small kitchen and bathroom. The room looked like it belonged in a hotel. Stepping inside, I looked around.

It seemed like a normal room, excluding the fact that it's a fucking elevator. Twilight walked in with Dusk in her arms, Nyx following behind and I saw small patch of orange on her mane.

I smirked at this, knowing Jelly wanted to be as close to Dusk and Nyx as possible. The doors closed behind Nyx and the room shook slightly.

Then a quiet hum emitted throughout the room. I had sat down on the couch next to Twilight as she played with Dusk.

Nyx laid down on my lap with Jelly in her arms. I took out a few pieces of candy and fed Jelly before he fell asleep with Nyx.


PoV: Jace


I seen different types of travel. There’s teleporting, flying, car, ect. As the dust settled I looked and saw that was now on top of Discord was what looked like the door to an elevator. Oh okay~ this is weird.

I walked towards it and as soon as I got there I heard a ding sound. I the doors opened and what I saw inside was a large living room. I saw Shade sitting on the couch with Nyx sleeping on his lap with something orange in her hair. I also saw Twilight with what looks like a bundle of… something in her arms. I also saw Shade looking at me with a grin.

“Sup.” I blinked at him and looked around the elevator. This reminds me of the blue box from Doctor Who.

“You do know how to make an entrance don’t ya.” I saw Shade got up and move towards me.

“Don't even ask how this happened. I just used your token.” I thought about it. I don’t really know how the tokens work really. Before I could say anything we heard a muffled voice coming from under the elevator. I moved out of the way as a now paper thin Discord pulled himself out from underneath of the elevator. One of his arms shot up and grabbed his head and pulled. His head was still flat and he turned to us.

“Look Ma, I’m road kill!” I groaned a bit. Damn it Discord. He pulled himself up from the ground and put his thumb into his mouth and began to blow. After a minute he was back to his normal chaotic self. He looked at the elevator and then at Shade.

“Nice ride, does it come with cup holders?”

“No but surprisingly it does have gun holsters.” He demonstrate this by smacking the wall as it opens and three different guns popped out.

“Shade!” I heard someone yell from inside of the room. I looked back and saw Twilight glaring at Shade.

“I looked around the room and found them already there. Besides, I don't use these kinds of guns anyway.” She walked up to him, still glaring at him. She then turned to me and gave me a smile.

“Hello Jace, it nice to see you again.” Twilight told me. I gave her a half hearted smile but it was gone as soon as I looked at Discord.

“Discord, the town.” I said to him. He looked at me for a minute.

“Now hold on that’s just rude, you have guests and I wanted to meet them.” I pulled out fate and pulled back the hammer.

“You were saying.” He glared at me and walked off, grumbling a bit. I put the gun back and saw that Shade was about to say something but I turned away and walked towards to Moonlight and the mane six. They looked both worried and confused and… whatever Pinkie does.

“Jace?” Light began but I stopped her.

“Discord is going to fix the town, I want you all to keep an eye on him. I’m going to head off to see Tia and Luna and tell them what happened today, oh and Shade is back and he brought Twilight with him and Nyx so,” I pointed at Twi. “You're going by Twi since it be less confusing.” Before any of them could say anything I ported away.


I grabbed my head as the teleport ended. I stood there for a minute to clear my head and looked around. I was in a forest of some sorts. I looked in my bag to see if I have everything. After that I walked forward.

After twenty minutes of walking I came upon a cliff side with a big tree growing over it. It a cherry blossom tree that was in full bloom. I looked down from the tree and saw what made me wince. It was two graves. I also saw two set of flowers, one with white flowers and the other a dark purple. I opened my bag and pulled out a set of blue flowers and a bottle. I walked over and set the flowers down as I kneeled. I looked at the two graves and read them.

Solar Light, King of Equestria.

A proud warrior to all and a good friend to all.

R.I.P

Nebula Sky, Queen of Equestria

A Shining light in the darkness and cared by all.

R.I.P

I sighed and sat down and pulled out three shot glasses. I poured all three of them and set two of them in front of the graves as I took the last one. I almost about to take a shot when my magic sense picked up something. I sighed a bit and closed my eyes.

“I know you're there, you can come out.” I lifted the bottle up and shook it. “I got a good drink here.”

“I don't drink.” I turned and saw both Nyx and Shade standing there. I also saw the orange slime was still in Nyx’s hair. I shrugged and looked back.

“What brought you here?” I asked them, taking the shot. I felt it go down my throat.

“You have to hide your emotions better if you don't want us to show up, that and Jelly here is a living emotion detector.” I turned back and looked at him. Jelly? I than saw the orange slime jumped off and went to grab my leg. I just stared at it as it hugged my leg.

“Umm.” I heard Nyx giggled at what happened.

“He knows you're in need of emotional help.” Shade said. I looked back at the slime, Jelly I guess his name is was looking at me with puppy eyes. He reminded me of those dogs that are paired with people with P.T.S.T.

“Who are they?” I heard Nyx asked. I looked at where she was looking and saw that it was at the two graves. I must of felt sadder because Jelly hugged my leg some more.

“Some old friends.” I poured another shot and shot it back. I twitched my head a bit. Shade walked up beside me with his arms crossed. I sighed a bit. “They are also this world's Tia and Luna and I guess Moonlight’s parents.”

“That explains all..” Shade said as he gestured the Gravestones. “This.” I snorted and looked back at the gravestones. I frowned a bit.

“Shade, do you regret anything that happened to you or what you did in your life?” He looked at me for a minute.

“If by that you mean if I regretted not defeating Azmodan before unleashing his army against two million untrained soldiers with families waiting back home, then yes.” I nodded and was about to pour a bit more but decided to drink from the bottle. Luckily I don’t get drunk easily.

“Sometimes I regret coming here.” Shade and Nyx looked at me. I eyed them and shrugged a bit. “If I didn’t came here then they would be still alive and taking care of Tia and Luna.” I felt a pang of sadness in my heart when I said that.

“Then Moonlight wouldn't exist. She exist because of you.” I looked at Shade and arched an eyebrow.

“That’s… true I guess, I think I’m mostly hurt on the fact that they died because I was careless.” I took another drink and sighed. The memory came back at full force.

“There’s was this man named Vlad, he’s a Planeswalker like me but he’s messed up to the point that he will take anyone to do ‘experiments’ on them.” I frowned at the thought. “I didn’t know at first but one day Solar gotta letter from him asking to come over with Nebula and me, he agreed and I opened the way to the plane he was in. When we all got there we saw that he lived in a Dracula style castle, skipping the boring parts Vlad asked Solar to join him to take over all the planes and well Solar refused.” I gripped the bottle a bit more. “Vlad was prepared for that and showed us that he, somehow, kidnapped both Tia and Luna.” I saw frowned and Nyx hugging Jelly. I took another drink, I started this and I’m going to finish this.

“They were about the same age as Nyx, maybe a little younger, but when Solar found out well he went ape shit, with good reason. Me and the king fought Vlad for what felt hours but then Solar told me to go and take Tia and Luna to safety, I argued with him but in the end I grabbed them both and ported away. When I got them to safety I jumped back to help but…” I stopped and looked over to Nyx. I snapped my fingers as mana went into her ears. She blinked and stared to look around. Shade looked at me at what I just did but I continued.

“When I got back I saw… Solar on the ground with a sword through his chest and Nebula lying beside him with her wings ripped off. Both died.” I closed my eyes and the image. I remember it so clearly as if it was yesterday. I remember all the blood, the looks on their faces and mostly I remember his laugh. I opened my eyes and saw that Nyx, though she can’t hear me, was hugging my arm.

“I… I don’t remember what happened next, I guess I lost it when I saw them, when I came to Vlad was… well ripped apart. The whole room was also ripped apart as well, I went and picked up the king and queen to take them back, but when I turned around I saw Tia followed me.” I saw Shade stiffen a bit as he looked at me with wide eyes.

“She… she must've seen everything that happened, I cast a sleep spell on her and took her back to where Luna was, after that I went back to the castle and used a spell call Ragnorok on it and well now there’s a big fuck off hole there, after that I went back and took them back here.” I took a long drink before continuing. “After I did I got some of the guards to take the king and queen to a room so I could try to revive them, before that I went into Tia’s head and locked the memories of what she saw in her head, and went to revive them. I tried as best as I can but after two weeks of trying I knew that I couldn’t revive them, I was a mess afterwards but one night the queen came to me in a dream which.” I pointed at Shade. “Scared the living crap out of me, but anyway she told me that it wasn’t my fault and to stop trying to bring them back and to look after Tia and Luna as if they were my own, and I did just that.” I looked at Shade and Nyx. I removed the spell of her as she blinked in surprise. I took another drink and saw that Shade looked like he had a question.

“Why lock away the memories? You know that eventually they'll come back and in a very bad way, for you and for her.” I snorted at him.

“Oh yeah and it came back in a big way, I think it was… some time ago, a couple thousand years I think that both Tia and Luna defeated Discord, something about his chaos magic did something to those locks and they became nightmares. She would wake up screaming about some kind of monster killing everything, after two weeks of nightmares I found out that it was from the memories that I locked away so I got both of them and told them everything and removed the locks.” I bent my head down. “I… I begged for their forgiveness, for the fact that their parents are dead and for locking the memories away, they… they forgive me and told me that it wasn’t my fault. Tia, Luna and I wasn’t seen around the place after two weeks.” I took another drink and looked at the gravestones. “And well today is the day that of the funeral of the king and queen, and when I found out that Discord attacked Ponyville, I was ticked off about that.” I frowned at the thought. I think before sending him to Fluttershy’s place I will punch him in the face. “And that’s it, any questions or anything to say?”

“No.” Both Shade and Nyx answered. I nodded and looked at my bottle. I drank the whole thing in one go, stood up and walked towards the cliff. I stopped and waited.

“Umm what are you…” Shade began but stopped as I breathe a torrent of fire for a minute. After that was done I turned around and smiled.

“By the Maker I needed that, So! I have to ask why are you all here, not here as in here I mean here as in this world?” I asked him. I saw Nyx looked at me with a confused look on her. Shade shook his head a bit.

“Well, let me explain from the start. After the wedding, Nobles all around moved to Ponyville to get on our good sides, making Twilight's work schedule insanely full and what drove us here was that Twilight needed a break. It was obvious when Nyx told her that Shadow Dusk spoke his first words.” Shade explained. I nodded and walked towards him.

“Well I can understand that, I just need to tell Tia that Discord was taking care of and I’m back.” I stopped for a second. “Want to tag along? I want to see Tia’s face when I tell her that you’re her son from another world, it would be funny.”

“Sure, it'll be funny.” Shade said before turning to look at Nyx.

“Go back to your mother and tell her that I'll be back in a few.” He said, earning a nod from Nyx before she blinked away with Jelly. I turned and clap my hands together. I looked over to Shade.

“You think you can get there before me?” He gave me a look that said ‘You’re kidding me right?’ and nodded. I smiled and looked in front of me.

“I always want to do this.” As I said that sparks began to jump off me as I lunge forward as I cast Lighting travel.


PoV: Tia


I sat on my throne as I listened to Blueblood complain about… something. Since he comes in everyday to complain I zone him out most of the time.

“He does complain a lot doesn't he, I never thought I would meet somepony that can complain about a chicken crossing a road.” I looked at Princess Mi Amore Cadenza. She wore a blue dress as she stood at left.

“You have no idea, last week he complained about a speck of dirt that was in his room.” Luna added. I groaned a bit and rubbed my head. I looked around and saw captain Shining Armor and Ajaxs were standing beside each other. They both looked annoyed. I looked back at Blueblood.

“Nephew I know that this… uhh chicken crossed your path but to be honest I don’t see the problem.” I saw his eye twitch a bit.

“The problem is that I’m royalty! No animal should cross my path and get off scot free.” I frowned at him. Did he forget what happened last week. I was going to say something until Luna stiffen a bit.

“Sounds almost like that weird game, Crossy Road.” I saw a stallion standing behind Blueblood. He had gray fur and a demon tail. I looked at him as he smiled and waved at me.

“Who are you! How dare you get close to me!” Blueblood said as he backed up. Shinging got his sword and shield out as Ajaxs just stared at him. The stallion frowned at him.

“How dare you ask, why I dared to dare!” We all stared at him for a minute.

“Umm what?” Cadenza asked him. Blueblood huffed a bit.

“I guess this commoner doesn’t know how to speak normally.” The stallion glared at him. I felt something demonic about him.

The stallion smirked as his fur was lit aflame. The fire grew twice the size of Blueblood before dispersing and demon stood in front.

He spun his trident around before slamming the floor with it.

Care to repeat that?”

Blueblood stepped back a bit. I stood up and Luna stood beside me. I saw Blueblood looked around at the guards.

“What are you are standing around for? PROTECT ME!” Before anypony could do anything, the doors slammed open as a bolt of lightning came in and started to bounce around the room. Some of us had to duck to not get hit. After a few more bounces it landed on the ground with a flash. As it dimmed I saw was uncle wobbling where the bolt landed. He looked around a bit and smiled.

“Whoa that was fun, I need to do that more than using the teleport.” He looked over at me and his smile grew bigger. “Hey Tia, I’m back! What did I miss?”


PoV: Jace


I looked at Tia for a bit and saw Luna smiling at me so I waved at her. I looked at the other side of Tia and saw a pink alicorn standing there stunned. I frowned a bit, what was her name again? I looked around and saw Ajaxs and a stallion that I guess he was Shining. I nodded to him as Ajax nodded to the big ass demon in the room. I looked it and figured that was Shade, now why was he in demon form. I looked down and saw the jackass. Ahh that makes sense.

“I’m guessing that Blueblood insulted you?” I asked him. The demon looked at me.

“No, he just spoke as if he knew who I was.” I nodded and looked at Blueblood as he stared daggers at me.

“You have something to say?” I asked him. His left eye twitched at that.

“You! You little insect think you can walked in here with your, pet and do anything you want!” I almost laughed.

“Do any of you mind if I eat him. I mean, it'll give me bad indigestion but I wonder how stuck up prick tastes like.” We all stared at him for a minute.

“No.” Me and Tia said. Blueblood looked around at the guard.

“Again why are you all standing around, I order you all to take this insect to the dungeons and kill this… thing!” I heard Ajaxs laughed at him.

“As far as the demon is, he didn’t really do anything other than say that he would eat you and for Jace, yeah no go screw yourself.” I chuckled a bit as I watch as Blueblood looked around frantically. I guess I got to do the kicker.

“I don’t know what you did but I think you insulted, more than once, Celestia’s son.” I watched as everyone looked at me. I saw Tia’s eyes go wide as the same as Lunas and the other alicorn. I heard mumbles from the guards. I watched Blueblood face went from angry to confusion to pale as he looked at the demon. Then he fainted. Oh man I wished I had a camera!

“Uncle explain before Celestia’s brain shuts down.” Luna asked me. Before I could talk Shade stepped in.

“I don't look like you but I get most of my looks from my Father, I think If you’d think about who I resemble, you'll know who my father is.” He turned back into his normal form. I stepped up as I saw they were still somewhat confused.

“Allow me to introduce Shade Shadow Bringer, Son of Celestia Dawnbringer and Sombra Vokun Sunvaar and Lord of Hell.” I stopped and looked over to him. “Did I get it right?”

“Yup, spot on.” Shade said with a grin. I looked back and saw Tia have smoke coming out of her ears. Luna blinked once and crossed her arms.

“You're from another world aren’t you?” She deadpan. I smiled at her and looked back at Shade.

“You're absolutely correct.” Shade said with a clap of his hands. Luna smiled and looked at Tia.

“Well sister here forgets that there’s other worlds out there.” Luna said as Tia sat back down and rubbed her eyes a bit.

“It been a long day today.” I nodded and clap my hands together.

“Well let’s cut this short, I came here to say that one I’m back and so is Moonlight and Discord has been dealt with, fixed Ponyville and will be at Fluttershy’s place to be reformed and stuff.” I jerk a thumb towards Shade. “Also Shade and his family are here for a vacation so that’s something, also who’s the pink alicorn?” Tia looked at me and then at the alicorn.

“Uncle this is Princess Mi Amore Cadenza, she’s here for a stop after going around to the other cities around Equestria.” Cadenza came up to me and bowed.

“I heard much about you from stories that I read as a filly, is it true that you defeated a army of snake monsters.” I smiled at the memory then frowned.

“The swamp that they were marching in smelled terrible.” She giggled a bit. “So how long you’re staying here?”

“Oh not long, there’s other places to go. I just stopped here to say hi the my aunt's.” She paused for a bit then looked at Tia “Does that mean that he’s my uncle as well?”

“I guess so.” Tia said. I smiled knowing that my family grew a bit. I looked out to the sun as something clicked.

“Whoa sorry to cut this short but we need to head back to Ponyville before hell break loose.” I turned to leave and saw Shade looking at me.

“Why do you say that?” I rolled my eyes at him.

“It’s Ponyville, shit happens there all the time. Both the good and bad.” I said as I casted the Lighting travel spell and shoot forward.


After twenty minutes I came out of the spell in the middle of town. I scared a few townsfolk as they passed by. I also saw Shade step out from the shadows.

“I swear I saw scp-106 in there.” I stared at him for a minute and gave him a weird look.

“Umm what?” He rolled his eyes and handed me a picture.


I stared at if for a minute and looked at him. “Umm the hell?”

“106 resembles a decomposing old man. Keter class, avoid at all cost.” I stared at him for a bit.

“Where did you say you saw him?” I asked him. He put his hands in his pockets.

“In between the shadow realm and reality.” He said to me. I blinked at him.

“Yeah, that’s concerning, thanks for that.” I turned and walked off with him following behind.

“I bet they should be at Sugarcube corner, or at the library. I don’t know where they would start but I think we’ll run into them sooner or later.” We walked down the street as I looked around. Discord did a good job at fixing the town up.

“You're going to punch Discord, aren't you?” I looked at him for a moment.

“What do you mean?” I asked him.

“You give out the vibe, it feels as if you wanted to punch someone.” I laughed at that and smiled.

“I always want to punch someone, I spent a long time with ponies that I was to punch I think it’s more of a habit now.” We turn a corner as Shade stared at me.

“You have issues you know that right?” I gave him a madman grin and continued on.

“Ahh but we all have issues, that makes things more fun, besides if anyone didn’t have issues then the place won’t be- oh hey! There’s Amber!.” I saw Amber talking to someone. She wore her armor with two blades strapped to her sides. They kinda looked like bayonets. The one who she was talking to was one of the bat ponies that I think are part of the night guard that Luna sent by request of Amber. The stallion had dark gray fur and crimson hair. He wore armor that looked like Amber’s but it was darker in colour. He had a great sword strapped to his back. Amber turn and saw me.

“Oh hey Jace, I didn’t know you returned. How was your trip.” I shrugged a bit.

“Same old same old, so who’s the new guy?” I asked her. The guy looked at me and frowned.

“Jace this is Captain Nightride, he’s here with the other night guards.” I nodded and looked at him. He looked grumpy. Not the ‘I don’t like you’ grumpy, it’s more of the ‘I just woke up’ grumpy.

“Nice to meet you.” I offered my hand to him and he took it.

“It’s nice to meet-” He stop to yawn and shake his head. “Ahh sorry, it’s nice to meet you, sorry I woke up some time ago and I’m not used to being up in daylight hours.”

“It’s fine, oh by the way this is Shade he’s a friend that came here from his home.” They both shook his hand.

“Nice to meet you two.” Shade said.

“So where are you from?” Amber asked.

“You wouldn't believe me if I told you.” Shade said.

“Try us.” Night said, narrowing his eyes at Shade.

“In an alternate reality.” Shade said. I watched as this unfolds as I saw the faces of the other two go to looks of disbelief.

“Riiight.” Amber said. I gave her a look and raised my eyebrow.

“You know that I came from another world right.” I told her. She blinked at me.

“There's also the fact that I'm a Nephilim, an offspring of an angel and demon.” I saw her as she tries to process all of this. I looked over to Nightride.

“You’re taking this well.” I told him. He looked at me and yawned.

“I’m too fucking tired for this.” He turned and walked off. “I’m going back to bed.” We watched as he left and I looked back to Amber.

“Hey did you know where the mane six went of to?” I asked her.

“Umm I think they went to the golden oaks library.” She answered. I nodded and said my farewells to her and me and Shade headed to the library.


We arrive at the library after walking for about ten minutes. I opened the door to hear Sylph begging.

“Oh Please can I be a nanny! I can be a good nanny!” I blinked at what I just heard. What?

“What?” Shade said. I saw Nyx walk over to us. I also saw the rest of the mane six around Twilight. Both A.J and Rarity was cooing whatever Twilight is holding. I guess it’s her kid. Rainbow was hovering overhead to get a better view. Fluttershy was holding Jelly, she looked at total bliss with it. Twi and Spike was carrying some snacks and drinks in.

“The silver haired lady asked to be a nanny for Dusk, she was begging for about twenty minutes.” I facepalmed after hearing that. Of course she would ask that. I looked over to Twilight as she was staring at Sylph pleading happy face.

“How long has she been asking?” Shade asked Twilight. She glance over to us.

“She first asked about a hour and a half ago and every twenty minutes or so, she had just asked again.” She looked back at Sylph. “This is fifth time now.”

“PLEASSSSEEEE!!” Sylph begged again. I pinched my nose and sighed.

“You better answer her, she won’t stop until she gets an answer.” I told them. Twilight sighed

“Alright.” Twilight answered. Sylph stopped her begging and stared at her.

“Really?” She asked. I snorted, remembering the last time this happened. Now I think about it’s a good thing she said yes. I don’t think the town would take a upset Sylph.

“Yes, you can be Dusk's nanny.” Twilight said with a smile. Sylph just sat there for a minute then her wings shot out.

“Hit the deck!” I yelled as Sylph shot herself into the air going through the roof. Likely she use magic to make sure that there was no damage. I got up and saw that all of the books that were on the shelves were blown off by the take off. I went over to a window and saw Sylph flying around at top speeds and doing tricks.

“She’s on cloud nine right now with what you said.” I turned to look at Twilight. “You didn’t just say that just to shut her up?” She looked at me for a moment.

“No, she seems like a really nice person.” I smiled and looked back out of the window. She was doing loop a loops now.

“Well you just got yourself a very good nanny, Sylph loves kids to a T and always helpful, she even have a sort a tutor group going on that she helps kids with school and stuff. You also can know that your kid or kids are going to be safe.” Shade raised an eyebrow at me.

“Why you say that?” I looked at him and gave him a straight face.

“Do you know why no one goes after a black bears cubs?” Shade slowly nodded. I looked back at the window.

“Well think of that only a hundred times worse, and that’s more so than a normal dragon. Sylph’s a bit overprotective on kids, there was this one time that she…” I stopped as I remembered what happened. I felt a shiver run up my spine. “...on second thought you don’t want to know.”

“Why do you say that?” Shade asked. I shook my head.

“Trust me, you don't want to know. Now,” I clap and turned around. “Let’s see your bundle of joy.” I walked over to where Twilight was sitting. She smiled and look down at her kid. I looked over and got a good look of the kid.

Dusk looked like Twilight if she was a male. He has Shade’s fur colour, ash gray skin. He had a black mane with a gray stripe like Twilight’s He opened his eyes and looked at me. I saw that he had magenta eyes. I moved around a bit as his eyes followed me. I like kids but I get creeped out when I see a baby looking at me.

“I think he’s planning for world domination.” I said out loud. I looked around and saw everyone looking at me. Pinkie looked like she was about to burst out laughing.

“Really.” Shade deadpanned. I looked at him with a scared look.

“He has that look! When he takes over the world I will be the one to tell you that I was right.” And Pinkie was on the floor. I stared at her for a bit then back to Twilight as she was smiling at me.

“You want to hold him?” I blinked at her.

“Uhhhh….” I felt my brain being fried. Sure I hold a kid before but they were like five years old. Dusk was younger than that.

“Did you break him?” Shade asked, waving a hand in front of my face. I grabbed his hand and glared at him. I looked at Twilight and, carefully, took her kid.

Again not going to lie, I may looked normal when looking at me but inside my head I was running around with my hair on fire. I stared at Dusk as he stared at me. That went on for a few minutes so I had to say something. If I didn’t it would be somewhat awkward.

“H-Hello.” Was all I could say.

‘Smooth.’ I heard Jess in my head. I frowned a bit.

“Hello Jess.” I said mentally. It would look weird if I started talking to myself.

‘Dude, it just a kid why are freaking out.’ I snorted and looked at Dusk.

“Are you reading my mind?” I asked him. I felt Jess facepalmed.

‘You are really bad at this, you know that.’

“Shut up, he’s giving me the ‘I’m reading your mind’ look.”

‘He’s not reading you mind, you’re just being paran-’ I watch as Dusk started giggling and smiled. I heard some ‘Awwws’ coming around me but I just stared at Dusk.

“You were saying.”

‘I’ve been wrong before.’ Jess said to me. I moved my hand and wiggled my fingers. He reached up and grabbed my pointing finger. I couldn’t but smiled.

“Ok now you got my finger, what are you going to do now?” I asked him. He looked at my finger and put it in his mouth. I looked up to Twilight and saw her smiling.

“I think he’s hungry.” I let Twilight have Dusk back and I went to stand by the wall of the room. I looked around and saw that all the books were still on the floor.

“You don't know how to take care of foals, don't you?” Shade asked with a smirk.

“The last kids I took care of were Tia and Luna, and at the time they were about Nyx age.” I pointed out. Shade just stared at me. “Also babies kinda creep me out.”

“Pfff.” Shade held in his laughter. I was going to say something but I heard a popping sound and Discord appeared. I stared at him for a moment. There’s something different about him.

“Why hello everypony! Sorry to dropping in like this but I heard that there was a kid and I have to come and see him myself.” He looked around and saw both Twilights. He chuckled a bit and looked at me and smiled. I shifted uncomfortably.

“John De Lancie? Why are you here?” Shade said. Everyone looked at him with looks of confusion other than Twilight, Nyx, me, and Discord. He looked annoyed at him. He muttered something under his breath and looked back to Twilight.

“Awww, what a cute kid. He has your face Sparkle.” Discord cooed and made a rattle and handed it to Dusk.

“So Discord, what you been up to?” I asked him. He looked at me and shrugged.

“Oh you know, chaotic stuff here and there, meeting some others, etc etc.” He looked at Shade and frowned. “Just like you.” He said out loud.

“What?” Shade asked. Discord rolled his eyes and made a pink cloud appeared and then layed on it.

“Oh some angel lady that sometimes speaks Irish at times. She’s kinda like you Shade.” He glared at Shade for a minute. “A little too much.”

“And what’s up with this, Irish speaking Angel?” I asked. Discord opened one of his eyes and grins. He put one of his talons to his lips.

“Spoilers.” Was all he said before he flashed out of the room. I blinked a few times and went through what just happened. I looked over to Shade who look confused as well.

“You know any Irish speaking angels?” I asked him.

“Hmmm, The closest one to an Irishman or woman would be Michael and the new Archangel of wisdom.” I thought about what Discord said.

“He also said that she acts like you, does that mean anything?” I asked. He just shook his head.

“No.” Was his answer. I frowned a bit and thought about it. I believe that Discord was holding information from us. I decided to ask later.

“Weird cryptic messages aside what are you all planning on doing on your vacation?” I asked. Shade tilted his head a bit.

“If it would be fine with you, we were hoping in staying here for two days, if we stay longer we'll have some nobles pestering us on why were we gone.” Shade said. I looked at him for a second and tilted my head for a minute.

“I think that would be fine, since you are all here to relaxe and all I don’t see the problem.” I told him. I looked over to the mane six and saw Pinkie vibrating. I may not have a clue about her but I know what’s she’s thinking. I leaned towards Shade.

“Is it going to be a problem that Pinkie throws a party for you all, she having her ‘I want to throw a party for some reason’ shake.” Shade looked at Pinkie and snorted.

“Sure, we haven't done anything for Dusk for his first month.” Shade said. I nodded to him.

“Ok Pinkie you can- where did she go?” Where Pinkie once stood was a pink cloud shaped like Pinkie. I also saw the door of the place open.

“Okay then…”

“No matter how many times I see that, it always makes me question reality.” Shade said. I shook my head.

“I just don’t question it if it’s Pinkie, she breaks every rule in reality.” I told him


Shade Shadow Bringer


I was about to reply to his comment but stopped as a small scroll with the Emblem of Hell I chose.

Normally I would ignore these messages, seeing as it doesn't bear the The Foundation on it but I soon threw that thought away as I saw an edge of the Anarchy peeling off.

Peeling the rest of it off, seeing The Foundation symbol on.

I knew this was either bad news or just news that can't wait to be heard.

Jace saw this and was about to ask, but I shushed him. I noticed Twilight looking at me with a sadden look as I opened the scroll.

Reading the message and seeing Discords signature, I sighed in relief. It wasn't bad news just a notification that we managed to find all but two Scp.

Discord thinks they might've traveled to another plain of existence and had asked me if I could check it out when I get the chance. Closing the scroll, causing it catch fire almost instantaneously, I walked over to Twilight.

“You need to go to work, don't you?” Twilight asked in a sadden tone. She's one of the few ponies that know of The Foundation. I've had to leave on several occasions, like our honeymoon, her birthday and even Nyx’s piano recital.

“No, it was just Discord saying that I need keep an eye out for two more and the whole Special Containment Procedure can be shut down for good.” I said to her as I gave her a kiss. Pulling back from the kiss, I turned my head slightly to see Dusk, who had just finished being breastfed.

He smiled at me and started repeating the word Dada as he tried to reach out for my hand. Bringing my hand closer, I stroked his mane.

He took hold of my hand and played with my fingers by wiggling them around. I heard the girls aw at this.

I rolled my eyes as I continued to play with Dusk. I looked at Twilight, seeing her beautiful smile always makes my day.


It's been an hour since my arrival at the library with Jace. Twilight and Nyx decided to go through town with the mane six, her alternate self included.

Sylph was left to take care of Dusk until either me or Twilight gets back, to which she didn't mind.

As I walked towards the outskirts of town with Jace, he had asked about the message and the mark.

“So what with the message with the weird mark on it, seems important.” Jace said. I stopped.

‘Should I tell him? Eh why not.’ I thought as I turned to look at him.

“Well it is, but it's not life threatening as long as I can quickly take care of it. You see…” I started explaining as I took out The Foundation badge from my pocket.

“I'm the founder of an organization that deals with Chaos entities from The Chaos realms of Eris. These entities are identified as SCP’s and are very unpredictable in nature.” I said in a serious tone, causing Jace to look at me weirdly.

“Scp 1128, The aquatic Horror and Scp 169. Keter class and I should really deal with these two as soon as possible so I can enjoy my time off. So want to help?” I asked him.

“Sure~. What do we need to do?” Jace asked. I then began digging a small little hole big enough to put both my hooves in.

“A hole?” Jace asked, confused at my sudden actions.

“I need you to fill it with water.” I said. Jace filled it up to the brim with water using a spell to do so.

“I still don't see what you're trying to do. You said that this thing is in water, then why not check the ocean.” Jace suggested as I took out a photograph of Scp-1128.

“Look at this and tell me what you see.” I said, showing him the photo. Jace squinted at it, focusing on the beast.

“I don't even know what to say about that.” Jace said as he looked at me. Knowing that the effects of the scp are now activated on both of us, I said.

“You don't, just follow my lead.” I said as I stood on the small puddle of water. I stood there for a few seconds and Jace was going to say something but couldn't as I was soon sunk into the puddle as if it was a few miles deep.


Jace


The first thing I thought of when I saw Shade sunk into the puddle was what the fuck. I looked at it some more and went to grab a stick and poked at it. Nothing happened at first but as I tried to pull the stick out it began to sink. I thought about it for a moment and cast a water breathing spell on me.

“Well here’s goes nothing.” I said as I stepped into the puddle. “Next stop, who the hell knows.” A minute later I sank into the puddle.


So. Much. Water. I looked around and saw that I was under water that went on for miles. I thought at first we went into the plane of water for a minute. I used some mana to push me through the water as I looked for Shade. It took me a bit but I found him which was odd since there was nowhere to hide.

“So we are here, now what?” I asked him. Shade looked at me for a minute.

But no answer, all he did was point down before swimming away as if his life depended on it. Not to ask questions I leaned my body and followed. Gotta love water magic, I can move as fast as a bullet in water if I wanted to.

Shade suddenly stopped as a horrific roar could be heard around us.

“Fuck.” Was all Shade said as he looked down onto the abyss. I looked down as well.

“I guess that’s the Scp?” I asked him. He didn’t say anything but swam a bit faster. I went a bit faster and looked at it again.

“It looks a lot like Leviathan from the game.” As soon as I said that I wondered if summoning one wound help. I looked back and saw it chasing us and was catching up.

“Distract it but don't kill it! It need to be returned back to the chaos realm! I need time to prepare the containment seal.” Shade said. I nodded and went through my head for any monster that could help. I thought of one and smiled.

“Well if it’s a Leviathan looking thing, then a Leviathan size monster is what we need.” My Blue gem glow bright as I summoned my creature.

“ARISE!” I shouted as a loud boom sound went out. After a minute I saw movement to my side. I laughed at the sight of the creature.

I sent it after the Scp but made sure just to restraint it, not to kill it. It wrapped itself around the Scp and pulled. At this moment I saw that this thing was huge. I used the water around us to hold that creature in place. I could feel it trying to break out.

“Shade, how’s it coming, I hope you, ugh, are almost ready, I got it- err, hold but I don’t know for how long, I- uggg, think I’m just pissing it off.” I put in more mana into my spell as the thing pushed. The Kraken pulled harder at it but did little use to it. I don’t know if even notice it. I cast a titanic growth on the kraken and saw that it helped a little. The Scp started to thrash around a bit.

“Thirty more seconds!” He shouted. At that moment The Scp shook off the Kraken, turns it head, and ate it. My mouth opened. It ate my kraken, this is not good. Without the Kraken it was harder to push it back.

“Oh. No. You. DON’T!” I yelled as I tapped into the blue mana. As best I could say at what I looked like when I turn into the blue mana form is that I looked like a blue spirit with runes moving around on me and around me and voices of different languages can be heard. I formed a blue ball and focus on it. I giant whirlpool formed around the SCP and it was stuck there. I grin a bit. This is much better, now to wait for Shade.


Shade Shadow Bringer


Done!

Looking behind me and seeing Jace struggle with the scp, I had swam in ludicrous speed.

Holding out the seal and and swimming towards the forehead, I could only shout one thing.

“LEEEROYYY JEENKIINS!!” With that said, the seal made contact with the beast, consuming it in bright red glow as it thrashed around.

Before I knew it, it was gone. I didn't have time to celebrate as I realized I now needed air and swam up wards.

Resurfacing the puddle, I gasped out for air and pulled myself up. After taking a few breaths I turned to the puddle and saw Jace came out of it. He look normal and was staring at me.

“You ok?” He asked me. I waved him off as I took some deep breaths.

“Peachy.” I answered as I stood up.

“And now we need to find the last one, tell me have seen or heard of a recently discovered archipelago that wasn't there before?” I asked, wanting to get this over with. Jace crossed his arms and looked like he was thinking.

“I heard that there was one that was discovered a few days ago and it baffled a lot of ponies and they are saying that it wasn't there before.” He tilted his head a bit. “Now that I think about I went there to check it out and when I got there I got a feeling that there was something there, I never checked out ever since.”

“Well, let's go. The sooner we deal with it, we can forget this ever happened and you can forget The Foundation ever existed.” I said as I began to spread my wings but couldn't as I remembered that I had a shirt on.

Groaning in annoyance, I took my shirt and let my wings free.

“Where is it located?” I asked, ready to take off.

“About ten feet in front of you.” I heard him say. I was going to ask what he meant when I felt him tap my shoulder and I heard a popping sound and my stomach did a lunge. I blinked and saw that we are in a different place. I also heard him groan a bit.

Ignoring my stomach problem, I flew up into the air, high enough to see the Archipelago. In the eyes of a normal guy this wouldn't be anything special but when you're me, you get to see a lot of shit.

Focusing my vision, I was able to see The beast.

If that doesn't convince you then I don't know what will. Heading back down towards Jace, landing safely beside him.

“Yup, thats 169 alright.” I said. He was about to reply but was cut off by a loud hum and a tremor.

“Okay, the whole place is him, I shouldn't be surprised by it. So what's the plan?” He asked.

“Get to the head, contain it inside the seal along with the other one and wait back at Ponyville.” I said as I began walking towards 169 dangerous forest. I heard a popping sound behind me. I didn’t look back.


Jace


Ugh my head. I held my head for a minute as the headache slowly passed. I got a bit better at using this spell, all I get now is a massive headache which are still not fun.

I walked down the halls until I found the throne room doors. I also saw a line up of nobles outside of the doors. I walked right passed them and went to the door, ignoring the yelling from them. As I went in I overheard the last part of the conversation that was going on.

“We understand that these quakes and we have ponies out looking for the source, but we can't send some to investigate your farm. I'm sorry” Tia said to whoever she was talking to. I got a good look at her and felt my eyes go wide. She was a half pony dragon like Scoots. She had dark brown fur with a earthy green mane. Her wings were the same colour as her fur and I saw that she had two dragon like horns coming out of her head. I moved to the side and saw that her eye colour was a steel gray. I also saw that she has been crying to.

“Please princess, I'm not asking much from you all I asked is some help. It doesn't have to be ponies to come and help, supplies such as wood and tools can be enough.” She got to her knees and start crying. “Please I just need help, my farm it's all that I have left.”

I looked at Tia and saw her biting her lip. I knew that she wants to help her subjects very much but as I have taught her, ‘you can't help everyone’.

“I'm sorry but again I would love to come and help you but I can't spare anypony at the moment. As for supplies, all useable tools and wood are being used for repairs and other projects that can't be stopped. I'm sorry but I can't help you.” Tia looked up and winced at the sight.

The mare was destroyed emotionally. Her face was shocked and her eyes were one's without hope. She got up and walked out of the room. As she left I heard a heavy sigh from the throne. I saw Tia put her head into her hands. Luna put her hand on her shoulder for comfort.

“I forget how hard ruling a kingdom really is.” I heard her say. I walked up to the throne and stood there as they both looked at me.

“Hello uncle, sorry if I'm not in a happy mood at the moment.” I shook my head at Tia.

“I heard the tail end of it. How bad is it?” I asked. Tia looked down and frowned. Luna straighten and looked at me.

“These quakes have did a number on some buildings in some parts of Equestria. Celestia has sent out many ponies to repair much of the damage and have some dealing with some monsters that been popping up. The mare who was just here had a farm close to Ponyville that got hit by one of the many quakes and destroyed most of her harvest and came here for aid that we can't give.” I nodded at her. I looked back at the doors for a minute and turned back to the two of them, remembering what I was here for.

“Right the quakes, you see I know what made them.” I saw both Tia and Luna had my attention. I cleared my throat and continued.

“As is seems, there was one creature that were making them, luckily Shade knew more about it and we felt with them. And about the monsters, it's also taken cared of.” Tia nodded as Luna narrowed her eyes.

“And how did he deal with these beasts?” she asked. I shrugged.

“I like to tell you but I won't, for reasons.” As soon as I said them I saw something out of the corner of my eye. I turned to see the shadows went darker as Shade walked out of them. He looked like hell.

“Dude you look like you been dragged all hell's half acre and been dropped kick at the end.” He looked at me for a moment.

“Five Blood Phoenix, two earth golem eagles and a chicken.” He said, as he took out his badge and tapped the center of it, causing it to start blinking red and blue, rapidly.

“What are you doing?” Celestia asked. I'm wondering that as well. All of a sudden a very high pitched sound pierced through the room, causing every single guard in the room dropped onto the floor, knocked out cold.

Luna saw this and was about to shout but was cut off as robotic looking creatures appeared out of the shadows.

Each of them bore the same symbol.

Two stood by the front doors while the rest stood still while saluting.

“Sir, we came as soon as we saw the signal.” one of them asked.

“Yes, it's about the two remaining Scp’s.” Shade said as he showed them the seal. The one that had talked earlier was about to take hold of the seal but soon straighten up.

“Attention!” the same one shouted as another being appeared with a loud pop. He wore mismatched clothing, brown jacket torso, right sleeve was green and the left was yellow.

His pants were divided in two, the left side were jeans while the right was a black suit pants. In his left hand he wore some sort of gauntlet while his right hand was just a skeleton.

He was speaking through a phone in an irritated tone.

“I told you once, Tia and I'll say it again! What me and your son are doing isn't meant to be heard, seen or noticed at all!” He shouted through the phone. He had his back to us as he kept talking, so i couldn't get a good look at him.

“And it won't matter in a couple of hours. After me and Shade finish up, then I'll tell you and Sombra, deal?” He said, then grinned.

“Great!” He said as he hung up and threw the phone behind him, imploding only a few seconds in the air.

“Mom’s still bugging you?” Shade asked. The being groaned as he turned to look at him.

The being was basically humanized Discord.

“Yes and that's the fifth time she asks today.” Discord said as he walked up to Shade. Shade held out the seal for him.

Discord took it and examined it. He then flipped the seal up into the air and before anyone could ask, it was gone.

“Nicely done, Shade. Hopefully, Eris won't yell at me anymore and allow me back in.” Discord said as he walked towards the front doors with the robotic soldiers following behind him. As he reached the doors, it shone in a bright red glow then he opened it.

What I saw wasn't the halls of Canterlot castle, it was something straight out of Hell. Soldiers upon soldiers could be seen marching in front while Discord shook his head and closed the doors then opened it a few seconds later, only this it was a small closet filled with exotic magazines.

Discord's eyes grew to the size of dinner plates and slammed the door closed.

“You saw nothing.” I heard him say as he opened it again and this time there was a really fancy throne room on the other side with the Anarchy banners on both sides of the room.

He walked through and then the soldiers soon followed. As the last one walked over to the other side and was about to close the doors, he snapped His fingers.

“Ow~, my head.” I heard a guard say.

“I feel like I got hit by a truck.” Another one said.

“What in Tartarus is a truck?” The first one asked.

“I don't know.” Was the second guards answer. I looked around the room and spotted Shining and Ajax both standing up. I couldn't help but snicker a bit.

“Wow, the mighty Ajaxs got himself knocked out, that’s surprising.” He glared at me and growled.

“Don’t even start.” He said as he walked out. I turned to Shade and gave him and questionable look.

“What?” He asked. I rolled my eyes and turned to see Tia rubbing her head.

“I’m having a really weird day.” I snorted.

“Welcome to my world.” I told her.

“Now all I need from you three is to keep all this to yourselves.” Shade said, crossing his arms together. Both Tia and Luna looked at each other then at me. I nodded and saw them put both their hands up.

“By the Sun and Moon, we will not tell.” They both say as they did a X over their chests. I did the motions as well. I saw Shade watching.

“A simple yes or okay, would've sufficed but meh.” He said, shrugging his shoulders.

“Any questions with relations to what you just saw can be asked in private. If one of dares to speak of this, we'll know. I don't know but we'll know.” Shade said. No one said anything. This got Shade to raised an eyebrow.

“Was it the threat?” He asked confused with the silence. Tia sighed and Luna rolled her eye and nodded to me.

“As what uncle said from time to time, and I’m using his words here, ‘We have seen shit that is better not to be said to others’ or something like that.” She looked at me and I nodded with a smile.”

“Cool, it's saves me time then.” Shade said, relief evident in his tone.

“Well that’s all out of the way, anything else?” I asked him.

“Nope, that was the last of them.” Shade said as he took out a large feather.

Puto galliña.” I heard Shade said. I snorted a laugh as the two princesses looked confused.

“Imagine a chicken the size of a Barn.” Shade said, burning the feather.

“Well that’s out of the way, we should head out.” I said to him. We said goodbye to Tia and Luna then walked out. We walked about ten minutes until we were alone.

“So that giant thing had monsters on it’s back?” I asked.
“No, just weird birds. I've seen a Lightning Roadrunner, Withering Vultures and a few Magma Ravens.” Shade said.

“I see well that’s interesting, I think I know of them but I don’t know the names-” I stopped when I saw the pony dragon hybrid sitting on a chair. The look of lost was on her face. I frowned. “Hold on for a second.” I said to Shade as I walked over and kneeled down to her.

“You alright?” I asked her. She slowly shook her head. I saw Shade looking at me and then at her. “I heard what happened to your farm, and that you tried to get some help from the princess.”

“I did but it was for nothing, I just wanted some supplies for repairs but I can’t get them from her and I sure as hell not getting them from my landlord.” I heard anger in her voice. I raised an eyebrow at her.

“Why is that.” I saw her hands clanch down.

“He’s awful, he doesn’t care about the farm or me, only money and if I want anything from him he wants me to pay for it or do, or do.” She bit her lip and I saw a look that reminded me of when Applejack and I talked about Applebloom. Mostly at the part of how it happened.

“Shade, can you take her to Ponyville for me. Something came up that I need see to.” I stood up and started to walk away. Before Shade could say anything I ported away.


Shade


“Port away without another word, rude.” I said as I walked up to the qilin mare. She looked up at me with a questionable look.

“My friend said to take you back to Ponyville. Now, I have two ways, the normal way or the quickest way. Choose por favor.” I said with a small bow. I looked at her and saw her eyes. Devoid of hope. She just shrugs

“I don’t care, the quickest I guess.” She said in a monotone.

I frowned a little, hopefully Jace knows how to help. Activating Shadow walk for others isn't as taxing as giving it to whole group.

“Follow me.” I said as I walked through a shadow. I walked for about a second and came out in the Golden oaks library. I saw both versions of Twilight. Twilight smiled at me and Twi just jumped a bit with a little scream.

I rolled my eyes at the typical reaction and waited for the qilin to go through. She came through and looked around. She still had that blank stare.

“Ma'am, wait here until Jace returns please. And if it means anything, I'm sorry.” I said to her. She looked at me and gave me a small nod and went to sit down. Twi went over and asked her something.

“Shade, what’s going on?” I heard Twilight asked.

“I don't know exactly, but it's about her farm being in need of repairs from the earth quakes.” I said with an emphasis on the earth quakes.

“On the subject of said Earthquakes, I've personally taken care of it with the help of Jace.” I finished the brief explanation. I heard some footsteps coming from the kitchen.

“Hey Twi where’s ya coffee grounds, ah can’t find them any- oh hey Shade, didn’t know ya was here.” Applejack said as she walked out with a pot. Moonlight leaned out and waved at me.

“Hello.” I greeted them. A.J smiled and then saw the qilin sitting down. She frowned.

“Who’s she?” She asked.

“Well, I feel like a dick now. I don't even know your name miss?” I asked. She blinked at me and stared for a moment.

“Rain, Terra Rain.” I nodded.

“Rain? As in the same Rain from Earth to Rain farms?” Applejack asked her. She nodded and looked down sadly.

“You know her?” I asked.

“Know her, shoot who hasn’t heard of her and her farm, they may be small but they can put out crops by the masses every year. They also have been around longer than Sweet Apple Acres.” She turned to Terra and frowned. “But why is she here and look so down?”

“She went to Canterlot to ask for supplies so she could fix up the farm, but Celestia and Luna said that they couldn't.” I said. At the mention of Celestia and Luna, I saw Twi’s left eye twitch.

“Twi, You okay there?” Moonlight asked her.

“I’m fine, kinda, sorta, ermm.” Twi said. I saw her mane getting stray hairs poking out.

“Remind you of anyone.” I asked Twilight. She smacked me on the shoulder as I laughed. Moonlight looked around and frowned.

“Shade where’s Jace?” She asked me.

“I don't know, he left without saying to where but I'm expecting something.” I said as I rubbed my shoulder. She looked at me and then at Terra.

“When he left, how did he looked?” I stared at her for a moment.

“Angry.” I said to her. As soon as I said that there was a loud sound coming from outside.

“What was that!” Twi said. I looked at Moonlight and she nodded.

“Jace.” We both said and we went outside. I looked around and couldn’t see anything. I took off my shirt and flew up to get a better look. I saw a mushroom cloud some miles off. As I watched I saw a light coming from it and heading toward us. I then heard screaming.

“HELP! THIS MONSTER IS TRYING TO KILL ME!.”

“SHUT THE HELL UP!” I heard Jace yelled.

“He he.” I couldn't help but chuckle at all this. As they got closer I saw Jace flying with six glowing wings. He was also holding a fat stallion by his ankle. He stopped in front of me.

“Hey there Shade, how’s it going?” He asked.

“Other than seeing a large mushroom cloud with no radiation, I'm fine. I take it he's the ass?” I asked.

“I DID NOTHING WRONG!” Jace frowned and let go. He screamed until he popped back into Jace’s hand.

“Yup he the ass.” Jace said with a smile.

“I've got an idea on what to do with him. It'll involve thirty days in hell. Time moves slower in Hell just so you know.” I suggested. The stallion looked panicked and looked at Jace.

“Please let me go! I’ll pay you anything you want.” Jace arched a brow.

“Let go you say.” In which he did. The stallion screamed again and again popped back to Jace. “Now, what were your charges? Oh yeah, first charge was having a lab making drugs in your basement, second is you sending goons to go and kill families, and third was… care to tell me what you said before.”

“I… I don’t know what your talking about.” Jace shook him a bit and he panicked a bit.

“Sorry, couldn’t hear you, try again.”

“Alright, I make the mares that work on the land I own to pay me if they need anything, if they don’t pay, they can give me a lap dance or if I’m happy something… more.” I frowned at him. I looked at Jace.

“Hell looks more and more appealing, plus Cerberus could use him.” I suggested again. Jace looked at the stallion and at me. I saw his eyes glow.

“No, that’s going easy.” He looked at the stallion

“So a slow and painful death is going easy?” I said. He looked at me and shook the stallion.

“By confessing his crimes he is found guilty for his sentence is banishment to the Plane of Mors.” I was about to ask what Mors was until a tear opened up beside us. I looked inside it and saw… nothing but my whole body tensed up. It felt, wrong on so many levels.

“May the maker have mercy on your soul.” Jace said as her threw him in. I heard screaming and something else as the tear closed.

There only thing I could say after seeing all this.

“I could've used his soul.” I said to myself. Jace looked at me.

“Hold on.” We waited and I saw a shimmer of black. A black arm of something stretched out with a lantern. Jace grabbed it and the arm went back in. The lantern was small and it glowed bluish green.

“There you go, one soul.”

“You wouldn't believe how much a Sinner’s soul is worth back in hell. Even more so when the soul committed various sins.” I said as I took hold of the lantern. I could feel more than one soul in there. I looked at Jace for a minute.

“What?” I asked, seeing his look of confusion.

“What, what?” He said and looked at the lantern. “Hold on.” He took a closer look at it and I saw his eyes go black for a second. “Never mind there’s three in there, one’s that ass, another is a blood hungry overlord and the last is a dictator. I remember those other two.”

“With these, I can afford more demons in my army.” I said.
“Right, so there’s three souls in here?” I shook the lantern.

“Yup, now then,” I saw Jace make a piece of paper appear. “Time to set things right.”


Jace


Shade and I flew down to the ground. I saw A.J, Moonlight, both Twilights and the qilin looking up at us.

“What was that about?” Moonlight asked. I shrugged.

“Just some ass that was being a pain.” I told her. I looked at the deed that I got from him and saw his name. I frowned and swiped my finger over it and erasing it. I looked at the qilin.

“Miss Rain was it? I think this belong to you.” I handed her the deed and she read it. I saw it light up for a moment and dimmed. Her eyes widen as she read.

“This is the deed, but this was owned by-”

“Yes that asshat before but know that he’s, not here now it goes to you.” She looked at me with wide eyes. I saw tears at the corners of her eyes. She started to shake a bit.

“And for repairs, I’ll come over and give you a hand on it.” I looked over to Applejack. “You mind helping out?”

“Shoot ah don’t mind helping out, if ya give me some time ah’ll get the rest of my family to help out.” I smiled at her.

“Well then I guess that’s tales- whoa!” I jumped as the qilin, Terra I mean, tackled me with a hug.

“THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!” She said over and over. I felt my shirt getting wet with her tears.

“No problem, but uggg can you lighten up, I need air.” She let go of me and wiped her tears away. I sat up and looked around.

“Well now that’s out of the way, PINKIE!”

“Yes Jace.” I jumped as she came up behind me.

“Right, anyway you know what time it is.” She blinked at me and smiled brightly. She turned around and pulled out a cannon. Where she got it, I have no idea.

“PARTY TIME!!!!!” She yelled as she fired the cannon, shooting out streamers. I looked at Shade and chuckled.

“I’m not going to ask.” I told him.

“Me neather.” He said.


It took thirty minutes but the party was in full swing. The whole town was here for it and everyone was in high spirits. Applejack and Terra was talking about some farming ideas and some trade between them. The rest of the mane six were talking with some of the townsfolk as Vinyl was Djing for the party. Sylph was playing with the fillies and foals plus Nyx and Jelly. It seems that they all like him. Twi was drinking some punch with Twilight as she sat down beside her. Shade was standing a few feet away from her, carrying Dusk as I was standing beside him.

I was drinking from a flask of apple cider. I saw Pinkie being Pinkie. I looked up and read the banner that was hung up.

‘Happy one month birthday Dusk!’ It read. Twi was going to ask why but me and Shade pulled her back. Saying that it wasn’t worth it.

“Well you did say that you wanted to do something for Dusk, you didn’t say how big.” I told him as I took a drink.

“Yeah, I should've expected it.” Shade said, cradling Dusk in his arms. I looked around and saw that Twilight looked happy. I heard that Rarity and Fluttershy was talking her to the spa tomorrow and both Twilights were also going to reorganize the library. She said it relaxes her. I was about to take a drink when I had a thought. I pulled a manager gem out of my pocket and poured mana into it and put a monster in it.

“Hey Shade.”I said. He turned to me and I handed him the gem. “If any nobles give you a headache.” He looked at it for a moment.

“What is it?” He asked.

“That there is a Mana gem, it has one monster in it and you can use as many times you want as long you let it charge for three hours.” I stopped and thought about it for a second. “ Don't throw it on the ground yet.”

“Okay, so what’s in it?” He asked. I smiled and took my drink.

“That’s a surprise for you and maybe for some nobles to find out.” He looked at the gem and pocketed it.

“So how does it feel?” Shade gave me a odd look.

“What do you mean.” I nodded to Dusk in his arms.

“How does it feel being a father I mean.” He looked at the party for a bit before answering.

“For me, it's a whole new experience. Sure, Nyx is technically my daughter but Dusk makes it seem as if I never done this before. So in a nutshell, it feels amazing.” He said as he looked at Dusk. I nodded and looked back at the party.

“Hey Jace!” I jumped again and turned to see Pinkie smiling at me.

“Pinkie, how many times do I have to tell you to stop that!” I put my hand to my chest to calm myself down.

“But where’s the fun in that?” She asked. I sighed and rubbed my eyes.

“What can I do for you Pinkie?

“Well since it’s a party, I was wondering if you can do some entertainment?” I raised a brow at her. No one have ever asked me to do something like entertainment before.

“Come on man, I seen you throw spells around and summoned monsters, don’t make me think that you’re a one trick pony.” Pinkie giggled at that. I thought about it and one song came to mind.

“Pinkie, do you have a acoustic guitar around.” She reached over a bush and pulled one out. “Of course you do.” I said as I headed to the stage. As I walked up I heard everyone quiet down a bit. I licked my lips and slow my breathing a bit.

“Hey everyone, I hope you’re having a good time.” I heard some whoops and cheers in the crowd. “We ask you can guess, I’m going to play a song that I know for some time and I think your going to like it.” I sat down on a stool that was so happens to be there at that moment and made sure the guitar was tuned. After that was done I smiled.

“This song is known as ‘Devil’s Dance.’” And I began to play.

At first it began slow. I swaded as I played. I saw some of them started to sway as well. I also saw Dash crossed her arms and Shade giving me a ‘Is that all look’. I smiled and continued. After some time I started to pick up the pace a bit as is got louder. My foot was beating to an unheard beat as I played. I stopped and waited a moment and continued only faster. I couldn’t hear anything other than the music. As I played some memories played in the back of my head. Some good ones that I forgot over the years. I smiled as I played. As I got to the end I strum it and stopped. I blinked a few times and looked around. I heard cheers and claps. I stood up and bowed and walked off, giving the guitar to someone else.

I got back to where I was standing with Shade and pulled out my drink.

“Since we're showing off Human music, check this out.” Shade said as he held Dusk in his left arm while he snapped his right hand fingers.

I could see a couple of Ponies that looked exactly like Shade step on to the stage with weird looks as they picked up an instruments.

One of them placed a set of bongos down while another one sat on the drums and began.

Only thirty seconds into the song and they brought out a couple of trumpets. I looked over to Shade and saw his smirk as the ponies started dancing. I started laughing and watched as everyone dance.

“It’s good to be back.”


Four days later


I was standing in front of the golden oaks library with Moonlight. It been four days since Shade and his family stayed for their vacation. It was going to be two days but both Nyx and Twilight wanted to stay a little longer. With them and the rest of the mane six in on saying ‘please’ he broke and said that they can stay another two.

I watched as the door open to the library and the three of them walked out. Twilight looked very relaxed every since she arrived four days ago. She was carrying Dusk and smiling at him. Nyx walked out while holding Shades hand. She was wearing a shirt that says ‘My friends went to hell and back and all they brought me was a T-shirt!’ Shade was wearing a camo shirt with his wings out. Rarity went and made them all new outfits and said it was the least she could do. She made Shade close from some very durable cloths and made holes so he can put his wings through. I smiled at them as they walk over.

“Well, I hope your vacation was relaxing.” I said to them. Twilight made a wide smile and nodded.

“Oh yes it was, it’s so nice to see the old library again and I don’t have to deal with nobles bugging me.” I nodded.

“I also had fun!” Nyx said. “I got to play with the CMC a lot, though it was a little odd that Scootaloo had dragon wings at first, but it was still fun.” I smiled at her and looked a Shade.

“What about you?” I asked him. He blinked at me.

“I was fine.” I nodded slowly. I turned around and saw that Discord standing there with my token.

“Everything ready?” I asked him.

“Yup everything is set.” He said as he threw the token down and made an elevator appeared. I turned and saw him turn into a bellhop and looked over to the rest of them. “Your ride has arrived.”

Both Twilight and Nyx walked into the elevator. I looked at Shade and saw him frowning.

“What’s up?” I asked him. He shook his head and sighed.

“We were gone for longer than I thought, as soon as we get back we are going to be asked a lot of questions.” I frowned and crossed my arms.

“If I remember correctly they all moved over just to get on Twilight's good side, but the way they are doing it made her stressed and got on her bad side. Also you are the Lord of Hell, you and Twilight just have to go and say to shove off.” I saw him shrugged a bit and I shook my head and pointed at him.

“Also you have that mana gem, if they bug you to no end use it.” I smiled a bit. What Shade didn’t know is that I gave Twilight a mana gem as well and told her the same thing.

“I’ll keep that in mind, thanks.” I shrugged a bit. I offered my hand and he shook it.

“No problem, ever need someone to talk to or help, give me a shout. Also if you all needed another vacation, don’t hesitate to drop by.” I flashed him a grin. “Again don’t bring any demons with you.”

He laughed at that and walked into the elevator. The doors closed and it shot up into the sky and disappeared. I stood with Discord as we looked up.

“I still have no idea why my token turn into a elevator.”

“Don’t question it J-man, don’t question it.” I nodded at him. “Well, Welcome to Season Two!”


Shade
Two hours later


When we arrived it was just as I expected, nobles were waiting for us in the throne room. As soon as we sat down on our thrones they began asking questions.

We would've ignored them all, but as soon as Dusk had started to cry from the sheer amount of noise, I knew something needed to be done.

I had asked Twilight if she wanted her guards to deal with them or mine. She chose mine, knowing that her guards will get them out but only for a short time.

Smiling, I snapped my fingers. Soon the door was kicked open and My elite shadow guards rushed in.

The Shadow guard were composed of both angels and demons. For now, only six members are allowed in to my Guards.

They knew what to do and had escorted the nobles out, only leaving those who have actual request.

As they had taken the annoying nobles out, I saw that Twilight had trouble calming Dusk. So, she gently handed him to me.

I gently rocked him back and forth while saying soothing words to him. The effect were almost immediate, he opened his eyes at me with a sniffle. I wiped his eyes from the tears and runny nose.

I smiled as he started to giggle a bit.

Scootaloo had came in and asked if we could help with the school fundraiser. I consider her as one of my own, so hearing that she needed help with something, I agreed to it.

Anyway, an hour of listening through requests later, it was time for dinner.


Jace


I lay back in my chair. Moonlight was sitting on the couch with a drink in her hand. I had some in mine. I smiled at what happened the past week. Hell, the past few months was something.

“These past few months were something huh.” I said. Light snorted at that.

“It was wasn’t it.” She looked a her bracelet to see the now four gems embedded in it. She was wearing a sleeveless shirt that shows her cutie mark. A crescent moon in a purple cloud with now a blue, green and red star in it with a faded white one coming in. The pattern looked around the same as the magic pattern in the game.

“Well, this has been one hell of a way to bring in season two.” I said as I took a drink. I looked at her and she gave me a confused look.

“Season two of what?” She asked. I burst out laughing.

Author's Notes:

Another crossover with We-are-Legion. Again if you want to crossover with me, just send me a PM.

Anyway this one was planed and stuff. I wanted to look at Jace's past a bit. The idea that two of the closet friends died by a twisted guy and have to raised their kids that one may have mental scars is heavy.

As a spoiler for a future chapter b/c why not: Vlad is going to die, straight up die. But Jace may have to pay a price for that to happen.



See you all in the next chapter :)

Next Chapter: Chapter 20: I get a invite to a wedding, and I get a visit by a chaotic friend. Estimated time remaining: 3 Hours, 13 Minutes
