I finally managed to locate the Royal sisters in the throne room, Luna looked rather disgusted while Celestia was having a time of her life eating cake, sure enough my guess was right, her flank and lower waist had gained some… depths.

“Honestly, sister, how can you eat so much and not worry about your figure?” Luna said, Celestia looked down at her body, then shrugged.

“I think I deserved it after walking around the palace looking for it in the first place” Celestia said with a sweet smile, how is she even able to keep looking at everything positive? I’d hate to see how she would react if her ponies were slaughter before her very eyes or her kingdom was reduced to rubble “Ah! Echo, what brings you here? Have you discovered more ways of your magic?” Celestia turned her attention to me.

[Uh, no.. that's not why I’m right, I’d actually like to know the current DragonLord of the Dragonlands.] The royal twins gave me a look of slight surprise,

“Whatever made you interest to those savages?” Luna asked, I levitated my red chaos emerald up in front to show them

[Because I need to find more of those, you can sense the energy, don’t you? If there are more of them, then Canterlot is in trouble and I need to find the rest before anything bad happens.] I approached the twins with emerald floating beside me. [Those emeralds contain chaos energy both positive and negative, anyone can harness its magic, it doesn’t contain the same properties as normal chaotic magic nor can it corrupt, however the emerald contains a much larger pool of power to wield, multiple gems of the same can grant the user even more power to do the the unthinkable, I believe that one of the gems are in the dragonlands]

The royal twins started to discuss in hushed whisper before an answer was agreed on. “Do you know who created those Gems?” Celestia asked

[No, but I believe whoever said, is the same person who brought me to this world, I think those gems belong to me as I’m the original wielder of their powers, possibly even the guardian before my memories were erased] I was only going by theories and broken pieces of memory, I know I’m not the original Chaos but I can atleast take the role of him.

“For the time being, the last time we sent our pegasi over to the Southeast, the current DragonLord is Ember, Torch’s daughter, she proved that she wielded and proceeded to overthrew him. We’ve been keeping watch over her and she has yet to show any threat to the kingdom. Tell me Echo, you claim they can do the unthinkable, what exactly would that be?” Luna asked, I let out a soft sigh.

[They’re capable of more than what I ever did, but… they’re capable of destroying a piece of the moon if more than five are collected and their energy is harnessed into one concentrated blast of energy…] I said with dread, the royal sisters gasped in horror.

“T-thats impossible!” Celestia exclaimed, I shook my head.

[I tell the truth, you never knew about Chaos Magic until I came in, tell me how you ever came across anyone else besides Discord who can use this power?] The looks on their face told me otherwise. [I thought so. I plan to travel there and take the emerald either by diplomatic means or by force.]

“No, I believe it would to be wiser if I send the elements of harmony” Celestia suggested.

[...Celestia, you can’t solve EVERYTHING with friendship or harmony, you don’t know what you’re up against!] I said with a swoop a hoof across the air. [THIS is unimaginable power capable of freezing time, maybe even overwrite history if anyone finds a lot of those gems of power, this is more than just power, this might even be beyond DISCORD’s level! Only I have the knowledge to those gems and yes, before you ask, they can be destroyed but even as pieces, they still hold a good amount of power..]

Their expressions showing shock and disbelief, before shifting to concerned and confused, and finally settling on unsure expressions as they shared a look between them.

[There is something else I wish to discuss.. I need access to Tartarus as there is a red scarf similar to the one I wear that is related to a rather dangerous foe, he is like Discord, a man capable of taking down an army and killing anything, he isn’t in this world yet as long as anyone who finds it doesn’t figure out how to summon him…] I looked down as I realized what an dangerous road I’ll tread upon, I need to find the Chaos Emerald and prevent their misuse and I must prevent Travis from being summoned
“...I think the elements of harmony will need to hear this, it sounds you can’t do this alone..” Celestia said.

[I don’t mean to discredit your ponies, but are they truly up for the task?] I asked, I know they're the wielders of harmony, but I question their strength alone.

A voice began to whisper throughout the throneroom…

“Trust in the Force young Skywalker…”

[...Frostpool, if this is a joke, I’m not laughing..] I said with a deadpan expression, looking around the room.

“Frostpool?” Celestia asked.

[Just an new friend of mine who’s a little nutty, harmless.] I said

“Ah come on!” Frostpool dropped from the ceiling as he hung upside down on a rope. “It was a little funny,” His voice then deepened with distortion. “Search your feelings…”

Celestia had an expression of confusion on her face as she saw this strange bipedal creature, Luna took up an offensive pose, thinking it was an possible threat. “Who are you?!” Luna demanded.

“Luna...I am your father’s cousin’s ex girlfriend’s former room mate…” He replied, still hanging upside down.

[God darn it, Frostpool…] I whispered, slowly placing an hoof upon my face.

“Um… right, it’s nice to meet you mr…?” Celestia stopped in mid-sentence while Luna was glaring something fierce, like her looks could kill.

“Pool...De-I mean...Frost Pool.” He began to swing idly, no doubt finding amusement in the situation. “You're welcome by the way.”

“What.. exactly are you?” Celestis asked.
“For what!?” Luna demanded.
“Sister, please.. Do you really have to be hostile toward every strange creature we meet?” Celestia asked.

“Did you look under the throne?” Frost asked smugly as he slowly and...suggestively lowered himself to the floor.
“Oh, yes, the cakes were delicious, but why did you have to hide it there?” Celestia asked, she still had an slice left over.
Luna kept glaring daggers at Frostpool.

“I thought a roundabout would help you spend time with your sister. And it was the only place the guards wouldn't touch.”

He proceeded to mock fan himself with his hand. “Ooh is it hot in here, or is it just me? Who am I kidding! Of course it's me…” The sisters then watched as he sent his hand down his face, neck, and collarbone as it landed on his chest.

Only to pull back the leather and reveal the emptiness of his suit.

The royal sisters looked on in horror that there was nothing inside the armor.
[Frostpool! Are you TRYING to gain an enemy or something?] I asked in an hushed tone of voice, using my telekinesis to pull frost’s shirt back down.

“I demand an answer for this outrage!” Luna asked, her horn glowing ablaze.
“Is this another demented form of magic, Echo?” Celestia asked, her expression still keeping an aura of calmness.
[No, Celestia, as I mentioned, he’s just a bit.. Nutty, he offered to help me with my quest.. Assuming he doesn’t scare the population..]
Celestia giggled at this.

“If of course you must know...living suit of armor. I am in no way a threat to you or your ponies, especially the pink one, AND and...I have more cake!” As he effortlessly lifted a four layer cake from behind his back.

“No! No, I think that’s enough, my sister’s behind has gotten large enough as it is..” Luna said, raising and shaking her hoofs.

“Sister, don’t be rude, I can always save it for later.” Celestia said as she levitated it over to her and teleported it to her… Secret cake stash. “And besides, if he was a threat, I would of detected some poison in those cakes.”
Luna let out a defeated sigh.

“Is there anything else you wish to discuss? I still plan to have the elements of harmony to come with you when you head to Tartarus.” Celestia said.
[That’s fine by now.] I said, giving a grateful bow.

“Wait!” Cried Frost as he fell down on one knee, one hand on his chest and the other outstretched. “I implore you to hearken to my request!” Cried Frost with a Shakespearean accent.

“Hey, that used to be my thing, only I speak that way!” Luna said, crossing her hoofs.
“What is your request, Frostpool?” Celestia asked.

“I need...no...REQUIRE! A pony to call my own!”

“I’m afraid I don’t follow..” Celestia said.

“A companion with whom to venture this world with!” The room grew dark as a single light shone upon the silhouette of a tall unicorn pony holding Frost in its fore hooves. “We shall travel this world for years through strife and triumph! Parting only as death’s sweet touch finally takes me, as my companion whispers sweet nothings as the angels sing me to my eternal rest…” The light dimmed, slow clapping echoed, and roses fell upon him.

[Frostpool…. For at where we’re going, you don’t need that..] I said
“I don’t still get it.. Are you asking for an an bodyguard?” ?Celestia asked.

“Pfft, why would I need a ‘BODY’ guard. I don't have one!” He replied with excitement in his voice.

I reached over with my hoof and hit upside Frostpools head, causing his head to go spinning comically.

Finally focusing long enough to shake the stars from his eyes, Frostpool straightened himself out and coughed into his curled hand.

“Look, just give me a mount! It's all I want!”

“Oh! Well, why didn’t you just say so, we have all sorts of mounts, just exit the throne room and head west, you should find the stables there.” Celestia said with a smile.

I rolled my eyes around at Frostpool, taking Celestia directions to get to said-stables, I wait patiently for Frostpool to get his mount so we can start traveling asap.

“Screw the pony I got myself a cragadile!”

Surely enough, Frostpool did get himself an Cragadile, it was slightly bigger than the usual pony, it was one of cragadiles the pony soldier have kept, it was no easy task training and taming those beasts, but in the long time, they were made for battle and providing protection for the rider, this particular Cragadile has seen it’s fair share of battles and hasn’t been in one in a long while due to Celestia’s plan to unite the world in peace and harmony.

[Frostpool, if you could bring up the map, we’ll head on over to the Dragonlands.] I said.

“Hell yeah!,” He exclaimed as he materialized the map with one hand. “Road trip!!”

I take the map from Frostpool and take a good look at it. [It’ll take a while, more or less depending on whatever gets in our way.] I roll up the map and handed it back to Frostpool.

Author's Notes:

I ran into writer's block, while the goal is to head on over to the Dragon Lands and get the emerald, I'd like to try doing more than just that, I don't want to make it too easy for Frostpool and Echo to get the emerald, so hopefully me or Azure will come up with a good idea of what kind of obstacles they'll face.
