Ch 13

Frostbite slowly awoke. He slowly looked around the room and noticed that nopony was waiting for him. He sighed and rolled out of bed. He made his way to the hospital room door and stopped. It was really quiet. He opened the door to find that the hospital was deserted. He exited the front doors and saw why it was empty. A massive crowd had gathered to hear the mayor speak. He pondered why they were talking about until he looked at the sky. It wasn't there. His eye twitched out of confusion. He was about to go to the crowd when Morgrimor landed in front of him.

"Good to see your up."

"Forget that! Where's the sky."

"Oh… about that… Well… Celestia said something about the balance between harmony and chaos or something… I wasn't really listening."

Frostbite shot off towards Canterlot.

"Dude come back!"

Frostbite just ignored him and continued on his way.

He put his armor up on the rack. The stallion unwrapped his face wrap and hung that up on the rack as well. He yawned and cracked his back; that armor was really uncomfortable. He exited his room and walked up the stairs to the balcony. He leaned over the side and sighed. He had nothing better to do. He had his own castle, his own subjects, and his own army. He had everything he had ever wanted; well, besides a mare, but that was beside the point. He had all this power, but nothing to do with it.

"Yo Void"

He turned around to see a human. He had a black biker jacket with pony skull and crossbones on the back, black jeans, black Nikes, and a white t-shirt. He had a chain necklace and a chain belt, both with a pony skull and crossbones on them as well.

"Hey Najmi"

"You look bored"

He let out a sigh, "That's probably because I am…"

"Makes sense. Dude what the hell did you do to the sky?"

"Okay no. Don't instantly blame me, I didn't do anything."

"Bull shit you totally did."

"Ok fine I may have had something to do with it, but it wasn't one hundred percent my fault."

"Well how'd it happen?"

"Well I was fighting this guy Frostbite…"

"What do you mean the elements of harmony did this?"

Frostbite was awestruck by what he had heard.

"I told you already, you were in the hospital and nearly died. The girls were so worried that they tried to use the elements of harmony to help you. They released so much harmonic energy into the world that it threw off the balance of harmony and chaos."

"What does that have to do with the sky though…"

"Simple. The sky is governed by certain powers, as how the sun and moon are governed by Luna and I."

"Go on…"

"Since the sky is technically under the control of an element of chaos, the fact that there's so much harmonic energy weakens them, making it impossible to project the sky."

"What kind of element gets to control the sky?"

"The element of illusion."

"Go figure…"

Celestia sighed, "Well?"

"Well what?"

"Are you going to fix this?"

"What? Why me? It's not my fault!"

"Well Luna and I are certainly not going to re awaken the elements of chaos."

"So what makes you think I will?"

"I believe you have a grudge against one of them."

"No I don't! Wait… You mean that guy…"

"You attacked him?"

"Yep. They tried to fix him with the elements of harmony and ruined the balance. Stupid mares…"

"Did he realize you were an element of chaos?"

"Nope. I didn't use anything that would make it possible for him to tell."

"Really? I thought the blade would give it away."
"He's never seen a weapon like it before, so he wouldn't have been able to tell."

"Ah, makes sense. So do you think he'll fix this?"

"I left him a scroll that explains the elements of chaos so I hope he does."

"Why the hell would you leave him that?"

"Well… I get bored a lot… sooo I thought it would be fun to have a rival of sorts…"

"You. Are. The. Element. Of. Science. You're the leader of the Equestrian elements of chaos. You're the polar opposite of the element of magic, the most powerful Equestrian element of harmony. He wouldn't even stand near a chance against you."

"True, but in time, maybe he will reach a power more around my level."

"You better hope so. It's boring here. Wana go hunt shit in Outer Equestria?"
"Meh, sure why not. Lemme grab my blade."

"What do you mean I can't beat him?"

"I mean, in this state, you can't win."

"But what if I…"

"No Frostbite. His abilities are beyond comparison. He's the element of science. It's not even possible for you to fight him."

"Really? And why not."

"He had control of GRAVITY."

"Ok."

"Do you know what that means?"

"Nope."

"He can make it so you couldn't lift a hoof because it would feel like a million pounds."

"Well that could be problematic. Wait… Gravity isn't science."

Celestia facehoofed, "Yes. Yes it is."

"No it's not."

"ITS PHYSICS. PHYSICS IS A TYPE OF SCIENCE!"

"Calm down I was kidding sheesh."

Celestia let out a long sigh, "I'm just on edge right now. Everypony's freaking out about this and I'm powerless against it."

"Don't worry Celestia, it's not your fault this happened. We'll fix this, I promise!"

"Frostbite!"

Frostbite turned to see Frostpaw and Luna walking up to him. He smiled and gave Frostpaw and Luna a quick hug.

"I thought you were a goner!"

"Naw, don't worry Frostpaw, I'm tough!"

Frostpaw just smiled and shook his head.

Luna spoke in a really quiet voice. "I thought you were dead."

"Excuse me, I couldn't hear you."

Luna burst into tears and flung her arms around him, "I thought you were dead!"

Frostbite was confused, but wrapped his arms around her to comfort her. He looked at Frostpaw to ask what was going on, but Frostpaw just shrugged. Luna realized that he was becoming uncomfortable and backed off.

"Sorry, it's just that your one of the few friends I have so the thought of you dying really effected me."

"It's fine. Just, a little warning next time ok?"

"Ok."

"Frostbite."

"Yeah Celestia?"

"Go see Twilight. She's been worried about you."

He couldn't believe he'd forgotten about her, "On my way!"
Frostbite shot out of the castle and flew off towards Ponyville.

"What the hell!"

Morgrimor flung his arms in the air as he and Mat read the scroll in front of them.

"How are we supposed to awaken the elements of chaos when some of them are in their own dimensions!?"

Mat sighed, "Like I know. This is confusing me just as much as it's confusing you."

Twilight trotted down from upstairs, "Lemme see."

She looked over the map until she found the solution, "Looks to me like you need this ones help."

They both looked at it curiously, "The element of science? Why would we need that one?"

"It can probably open a portal of some sort."

"Well, I guess it's worth a try."

The three heard a knock on the door. Mat walked over and opened the door and was overjoyed at who it was.

"MAT!"

"FROSTBITE!"

The two quickly hugged and Frostbite walked inside. He was quickly wrapped up by Twilight. He gave her a quick kiss and went over to see what Morgrimor was staring at.

"That's the scroll the stallion left me isn't it."

"Yep. We're trying to figure out the best way for you and Mat to reawaken the elements."

"Wait, why not you? Aren't you going to help?"

Morgrimor looked down, "I can't. The demon who granted me those powers was an element of chaos. He was the element of death. The balance affected his powers, and in turn he had to take mine away to keep his existence."

"Wow, that sucks. So you're stuck in solid form?"

"Yep. I've just been spending most my time helping Applejack now since there's not much I can do."

"Well at least you get to spend more time with her. So what have you discovered so far?"

"Okay, so here's what we know. There are ten elements of chaos, two of which we already know. We've seen death and science. Now, of these ten elements, only five are in our dimensional plane."

"Well where do the other five reside?"

"Three are in another area known as Outer Equestria. I have no idea about the other two."

"Well what five are here?."

"Well if you would let me finish… There are five in Equestria. The ones here are science, lies, betrayal, cruelty, and weakness. The three in Outer Equestria are darkness, death, and fear. The two that we don't know about are time and space."

"So what seems to be the best way to tackle these obstacles?"

"Well, I'd go for time and space last. I'd go for lies, then betrayal, then cruelty, then weakness. Save science for last since he's one of the more powerful ones, then have him create portals to the other dimensions so we can get the rest."

"Seems like a good idea. Mat, what do you think?"

"Sure, works for me. Should we bring Frostpaw?"

"No, we need him here in case something bad happens. He needs to protect the princesses."

"Okay, when should we leave?"

"Well, I need at least one more night's rest first, so let's leaves tomorrow morning."

"Okay sounds good to me."

"Stupid wolf."

Void cut a shadow wolf clean in half with a quick rotation of his blade. He and Najmi were running around Outer Equestria, killing random shadow animals, having fun. Void sidestepped another wolf and watched as Najmi ripped it in half with a tentacle made of darkness. Void charged up a large amount of purple energy in the tip of his blade. He shot the energy and swung the blade in a long arc, creating a large purple crescent energy wave. It successfully cleaved multiple wolves in half. The rest of the pack backed away as Najmi killed a few more of them. The wolves let out a long howl before they retreated back across the dark plains. Najmi and Void laughed as the wolves ran in terror.

"So, when do you think they'll arrive?"

Void pondered for a moment, "I'm not sure, hopefully soon…"

Frostbite let out a long yawn. He had been studying the scroll for hours and he needed to rest before they set out tomorrow. He trotted upstairs and slipped into bed next to Twilight.

"What, tired already?"

"I just need to rest before tomorrow, that's all."

"Course it is."

"It is!"

"Well would you care to prove me wrong?"

"And how would I do that?"

"I think you can figure it out." She pressed her body up against his and rubbed her flank against his crotch.

Frostbite just sighed, "I'm going to regret this tomorrow…"

Special thanks to Najee for letting me use his OC Najmi
