As soon as they took to the sky they opened their eyes, to see Meteor hovering.

“So... where is your home?", Flare said

" About hour flight due south of here, on the other side of the valley", Meteor said with knowing flight

" Okay let's get a move on then", Flare said with determination

The trio, knowing their flight time, rocketed at high speed to their destination. As they flew then below them there were all types of wildlife, ranging from four-arm gorillas with green fur to armadillos with drills for limbs. The planet life was l a mix of wild and order, some of the trees were twisted into each other while others were perfectly aligned with each. The nagging questions in the sisters about the place were unanswered but they had to ask just one.

"Meteor... can we ask something of you, as a way to kill time," Sawn song said hoping for an answer,
Meteor turns his head and stared at the sister through his mask for a moment as if thinking of an answer signing he turn his head back forward a gave in.

" Very well but I cannot answer everything somethings are better left untold", Meteor said with a tone of sadness and hurt, the sisters were confused before looking at each other with shared thoughts about the question and then what to ask. Flare start with her question.

" Meteor you said this place is the balance between chaos and order, but that should be impossible so why does the place exist?", Flare ask with a look and confusion and a voice with a hint of fury, because to her chaos was the enemy and peace was never an option for this war, so why their peace here.

" That easy my dear Flare, you think chaos and order are natural enemies but only because you fight their agents, but chaos itself is pure life. No one can blame the weapon of a warrior, it is the choice of the wielder to choose how to use their weapon. Order is the same both forces are cornerstones of reality, one cannot exist without the other, then they are not evil it is the wielder who makes them fight.

Flare was taken back, all she could be stared at her guide, as countless thoughts filled her head, with just a few sentences, and made her question her beliefs as a warrior. Sawn song saw her sister's expression, she notice something she had not seen for a long time, Flare was shattered so she let her sister collect her thought as she ask her questions.

" Meteor... something has been bugging me for a while you said our enemy were clowns compared to you, are you a threat to order?", Sawn song with a voice of suspicion and a hint of seriousness.

Meteor stopped flying and hovered with the Sawn and Flare right in front, he was dead silent, and then with loud-sounding laughter that shook the sky itself he stated. " If you what to know that then prepare for a horror you are about to observe". He reach for his mask with an armored hand and took off his dark dragon mask revealing his face to alicorns. "Does this answer your question little girl", Meteor said with a big smile on his face with his jagged black teeth forming the smile.

The sisters both with a look of shock on their faces felt a chill running down their entire bodies. It felt to them all the color on their bodies had been replaced with a dull gray coloring. For a moment their wings stop flapping and then almost lose control of their body before picking themselves back up. Finally, Sawn got her nerves back and finally found her voice.

"I see Meteor you are no enemy to the balance, I apologize if I offended you ", Sawn said with a voice filled with fear and respect for the hood shadow, Flare felt the same Meteor was someone you do not what to make mad.

"Think nothing of after all your the first beings, I have the pleasure of meeting in 500 years. So let's call this a show and tell, though, after that last statement, I am thinking that the end of these questions, until later that is", Meteor said as he place his mask back on his face. He then looks at the sisters with serious eyes telling them he was longer in the mood for questions. So with a clap of hands to their attention.

" Okay girls let's continue to my home", Meteor said as he started flapping his wings to back the flight path. Flare and Sawn follow behind him sharing a look then all too well. Then must never share what they just saw because then both know the consequences of either ever sharing what they just saw.

After a long flight of silence, the trio land at the entrance to a path lay down with yellow brick. The trio followed this path until then enter a clearing with a two stories house in the middle of it. The house itself was raised above the ground with gray tree branches holding it up that reach all the way to the second floor. The house's entire roof was covered with green and black moss with what appeared to be two gaint trees popping out of the roof. One of those had stairs leading up to a lookout point with moon shape crest all over it. The house windows and doors were covered in tree-like marking that rembles those of the everfree. Finally, there was a red moon and green moon symbol on the front door that was easily two meters tall with a bull head as the door knob.

"You have a nice home, Meteor very natural-like", said Sawn

"Thank, me and my sister and built this house from nothing over five hundred years ago, as our kind summer home", said Meteor with pride in his voice.

"So is our unit inside?", Flare said with a hint of doubt, Meteor shook his head and point to the roof.

"Your company is in my look point let go to them now", Meteor said and turn to Flare and Sawn song and touch their shoulder." The first time is always unpleasant", said Meteor with a look knowing while holding in a giggle. The sisters look at him and Flare spoke

"What are you...", Flare said but she could finish as they were blind by light, and the next thing they knew the general was in front of them. The entire unit was setting at a table, long and heavy and carved, occupying most of the space on the lookout. It could have hosted dozens easily, with two throne-like chairs on either with a telephone over next to the one to flare and Sawn chair. Zander sat next to Constellation leaving everyone to turn their head to the two sisters. Constellation looks at them with surprise and confusion for a second and spoke to their attention.

"Flight commanders Flare and Sawn song where have you slackers been, it been hours so we last saw", said Constellation with a voice of authority and power. Both Flare and Sawn were about to answer but then felt all their energy draining away and then fell onto the ground. Meteor appear behind a little shook and said.

"Sorry short-range teleport is very hard on the body the first time but it is the only way to get past my home natural defense", Flare and Sawn glare at with an annoyed look in their eyes. Gathering themselves off the floor they salute to the general and flare spook while maintaining the salute.

"Sorry sir but we got sidetracked for a while, me and Sawn got separated from you and we ran into Meteor and he led us here", Flare said with a dry throat and fatigue, Sawn was the first to get up and help Flare as then sat down
the table made out of wood and stone sitting on either side of the empty throne-like chair. Flare was sitting on the left while Sawn sat on the right, Constellation spoke to the unit in a loud voice.

"So now I guess everyone here so let's catch Flare and Sawn song up to speed on our state Zander", Consetalltion said as he turn to the black alicorn, said alicorn stood up from his stool and spoke.

"As we stand we are only a little behind in time, but we are in unknown territory with unknown creatures, and our host has brought trouble news", Zander said with a look of disappointment, all the alicorn at the table except for the general were confused by the statement.

"Sir what do you mean by that?", said a yellow alicorn with narrow blue eyes. She has long and wavy strawberry-blonde hair that reaches the middle of her back. She sports a pair of round framed glasses and a black wide-brimmed hat with a dark red-purple ribbon.

"To make clear captain Sliver wood, we are at a dead end", said Zander with a serious tone, the tension in the lookout getting thicker by the minute, all that was quiet for a few minutes before the general spoke up.

" Let our host explain the situation to us", said the general as she gestured to the stair all turned to the stairwell, then heard bone rattle until Meteor was in sight. Meteor places his scythe on a hook behind the other throne chair on the side of the table, sitting down he summons some wine for himself and speaks.

" Thank you general, it has been a long time since I had this many in my home, but let's get down to business", said Meteor said gesturing to all the alicorn present and looking at him a feeling of chill run down them.

" Now about the early matter we discuss, you said something about the enter being block", said Constellation said with a look that signaled for the alicorn to be quiet for the moment.

"Yes as told you Consellation, to get up there you would have to through the flow and that bad idea".

"Why is that Meteor please enlighten all as to why".

"Simple the flow is pure magic, anything that has magic inside well acts like a magnet, and will be drawn into it and broken down into nothing. Let me show what I mean". Meteor conjure a fireball in his hand and threw it into the sky. The fireball travel at high speed to the clouds above, as it approaches the clouds forms into a tornado and absorbs the fireball into it.

All alicorn look at with a surprising look on there, then just saw the sky eat magic. Constellation looks to Meteor a frow having confirmed his theory about the true nature of their problem.

" It true then the order is helping chaos, by keeping us out of the capital, that making the shield around the capital right now", The alicorn all look to their general with a look of shock on their face, has their general gone mad.

"General this is no time for jokes", said Flare with a tremble all over her body, her eyes were burning with fear. She heard a low chuckle next to her and realize it was Meteor, Flare glared at him.

"Is something funny Meteor", said Flare with a growl

"It's just funny and ironic that the holy balance is the thing your fighting for, but it's also the thing that dragging out your war", said Meteor with a smug ugly smile

"Oh yeah, what do you suggest we do Mr.know it all". said Flare with a growl Meteor look at Flare with black eyes and then his mouth formed into a long eerie grin, he look like a wicked trickster with his dragon-like mask on.

"Well I could help you out, but I cannot leave this place, but I can supply you with what you need general", said Meteor

"I feel a catch here Meteor, what do you want", said Constellation with a look inquire toward Meteor. With a grin, Meteor stood up from his chair and walk toward the edge of the lookout looked at the sky, and said.

" Oh nothing much, I just what two things to be free of this place and get back to my old friend. For now, I will settle for a meeting with your queen", said Meteor with a look of longing as he turn back to the general.

"You just said you can't leave so how am supposed to set up this meeting", said Constellation with a confused tone

"Just give this to her, she will know what to do with it", said Meteor as he toss a white sphere to Constellation, Constellation grabbed it with his magic and study it looking like the sun imprinted on the left side and the moon on its right.

" Ok, I will pass this along", said Constellation as he took the sphere back into his pack.

" Now what do we general, it's not like we just go back like this, the council will have our heads for leaving the mission incomplete", said Zander with a hint of worry in his voice, most of the squad shared the same thought, leaving a mission mean death or worse chaos firing.

" Let me worry about that Zander, I am just worried about the queen well feel about this", said Consettlation with a look of sadness and regret he thought of the countless battle he had fought and how they never end. He gave himself false hope thinking tonight would be the end, he should know better war is cruel.

"Well I love for you all to stay and chant, but I have many things to get ready for later. So about I send you back home and you deliver my message", said Meteor as he raised his hand and tore open a piece of space. Everyone looks in surprise at the magic that was shown.

"Impossible that a rift, how do you that", said Sawn song with a shocked look on her face, Meteor grin and snaps his finger lifting everyone into the air.

" I told you, some things are better left unsaid little girl, goodbye friends", said Meteor as he motioned his hand toward the rift. The entire unit was hurled through the rift after everyone was flung through the rift, he clap his hand and it close.

Meteor let out a chuckle and sat back in his chair. Meteor reached for the phone next to his chair, and enter some number, the phone let in an ear-ringing scream each time it rang. After a few minutes a low growl could be heard on the end, Meteor relax into his chair and look at the sky.

" Yeah it's me old friend, the time has finally come".

"...."

"Yeah, I am sending you a list of what I need".

"....."

" Don't worry, then don't know".

"...."

"Yes, very soon I will be back down there with you and everyone else".

"......"

" No that will not happen those clowns don't even understand what it is".

"....."

" Yeah, for now just send TR he does love a party".

"....."

" Yes I know opportunity has come knocking at last his head well be mine"

"......"

"Yes once I get the deal sign we can begin"

"....."

" Alright being seeing you very soon Athene".

Meteor put down the phone back on the stand and snap his finger to change it into a book with a red pentagram on the front. Scrolling through pages looking for a specific page finally land on the one he what. Growing a grin on his face takes out a deck of cards from the page.

"Ah my cards these will come in handy very soon, so whose should I use first", Meteor look at the cards with pictures of different types of creatures on them, looking at each card with a dilemma on his hand.

" Then all look so lethal I can't choose", Meteor having a wild idea used his magic to randomize the cards until one floated up to his.

"hmm oh yes then well just fine with my demonstration to the queen. Hahaha I can already feel the joy this going to bring oh I can't wait for your reply old friend", Meteor then starts chuckling at a low volume that gradually turns into laughter.

Queen Galaxia was an alicorn of the highest strand she was also the oldest in the world. Some say she give time and stars but knew if the myths were true. The queen gave an aura of burning a star in the night sky in the form of an alicorn. She was taller than a grown stallion, had Slightly desaturated red, her coat light grayish yellow with a darker tone on her wings, horn, and hooves, and her mane was very light orange dark moderate blue with stars. My most important was her cutie's mark it was of the galaxy itself swirling forever.

She sat on her throne known as the throne of harmony which was made of gold, the back part of the throne showed pictures of the sun, moon, sea, and land. On this throne, she felt a disturbed in space and time like a door that was never supposed to open had opened. She looks to the right at her crown it was a golden tiara with five purple jewels placed on each spike of the crown. She let a huge sign every day she put on that crown she felt it get heavier every day. So she does not know why though it is like her heart was trying to tell her something.

She was drawn from her thoughts by a shockwave appearing in front of her. The shockwave was drawn to one point and formed in ball-blue lighting. A light came from inside the ball and as the ball began to disappear outcome was Constellation and his entire unit. As then lay on the floor with burn marks all over the floor. Galaxia stood up from her throne and ran toward them arriving in front of Constellation.

" Constellation what has happened," Galaxia said with worry in her voice, Constellation look up with heavy eyes and reach into his pack with his magic to lift up the sphere. With heavy eyes, he collapses to the floor with a sphere dropping the floor.

" GUARDS we need a medic team in here!" Said Galaxia said in a booming voice, two giant doors open several alicorns dressed in armor. A trio of three guards each approach one of the fallen alicorns and pick them up to take them to the medic ward.

" My queen what about the general he has to sustain heavy damage to his horn and heart," said one of the guards helping pick up the general. Galaxia looks at it for a few seconds and then shut her eyes to think about the best course of action. Opening her eye she turns to the guards

" Take him to princess Ingrid for ice healing"

" Understood my queen" the guard gave her a salute and hurry to give medic treatment to the wounded unit.

Now only Galaxia collect her thought, she drew her attention to the object Constellation was trying to give her. She lift it up in her magic to look at it had the symbols of harmony on it. So she knew what to do she had to recite the words of harmony

" The suns, moon, sea, and sky are different but then are all one in order" After reciting the words of order the sphere opened, and inside was a projector and it starts a spin with a hologram forming in front. The hologram shows Meteor sitting on a black throne with swords on the top forming a crown, a lion head forming the armrest, and a holder on the back holding his scythe. Meteor with a grin on his face as he spoke. Galaxia could feel something bubbling inside her chest, it was anger mixed with something maybe sorrow, fear no it was dread. Dreading the unknown of this she could feel its aura and it was else.

" At last we meet the queen of time and space, my name is Meteor"

" Yes we do but who are you," said Galaxia with determine

" Who I am is not important, what I can offer you is"

" Oh and what are offering to me stranger"

" Easy Galaxia I am not your enemy. Think of me as a friend offering my services to end this war forever"

" A friend, I have heard that from many true friends and good souls, but then slaughtered by those monsters. So don't speak about friendship because to me all I see is a threat".

" Now Galaxia I am not like them, I am merely a third party that offers help to the losing side". Meteor grow a grin on his face Galaxia morphed into one of shock and her body trembled with fear.

" How do you know that, not even my daughters know that".

" Easy those clowns have you push up against the wall, that's why you sent your troops my way. You need them to take the royal family quick because their king has something that giving him an edge in this war since day one."

"So you know so what, it not like I can sit back a let the world burn because of that mad tyrant ramage".

"No my dear anything but that, I am simply saying that for the underdog to win, then need a miracle, and I can be that miracle".

" So you can save my alicorns, I suspect you are not doing this out of kindness".

"HAHAHA, you are smart, so I will cut this short, I can offer footsoldiers, weapons, titans, armor, and warriors for the right price.

"What is the price of this deal."

" If I were to offer my men and women, I all need are two things a deal sign and certain someone head"

" Okay that pretty vague stranger, I can't agree to deal this blind."

" Okay fine, guess I can say I what Tartarus body after our deal finish."

" You what his body why, but why its nothing but flesh and bone after his soul depart."

" No need to worry about that for now, all I need from you is to sign the deal."

" Again I am no fool, give me some credit Meteor."

" I see you need proof of power before signing. Okay about this tomorrow I will open up a rift and send one of my best men. If you are impression you sign the deal, if not we will leave at that fair".

" Fair I hope you do not disappoint Meteor"

" My fair lady, what kind of man can't make good on a promise. Anyway that concludes my time see you tomorrow". With that statement, the projector stopped spinning and the hologram disappear. Galaxia the sphere and places next to her crown.

The queen then sat back down on her throne and look out the window. The thinking was all she does these days, it annoyed her she what to get out of this castle and fight like she did before her parent passed away. Letting out a sign she look back to the devices, she did what to give herself false hope she spent a decade hearing those promises. If by some miracle it was true the balance could finally be restored and the world is safe again for her children and their children.

"You better deliver Meteor, I hate liers"
