The Lord of Ragnarok
Chapter 17: Brother and Sister - Mother and Father
Temple of Celestia Sol - Sombra's Chambers - Sombra the Magnificent's P.O.V.
When I woke up I was aware of two things. The first was that I was no longer in the Isolation cell. Despite everything I have to admit that Mannulus knows his spells. The barrier in those spells kept everything potentially dangerous from getting out, and certainly kept anything dangerous from getting in. The second thing was that I didn't feel so out of sorts. I wasn't quite sure who I was, though. There were two sets of memories in my head, and both of them seem real. The first set caused my blood to boil. The memory of two invaders that came into my home, took my castle, ruled my people, and I wanted to destroy them. Taking their little whelp and forcing them to bow was the most satisfaction I had ever felt.
The thought of bending that mewling quim to my will, and then breeding her in front of her husband certainly crossed my mind. But then there were the other memories, just as vibrant, just as real, and in them I saw my sister. Slowly the two sets of memories began to change, morph, and they became as one. I was a King, the ruler of the Frozen north, the reason for fear on the would be invaders that dared to threaten my people. I was also a brother, a protector, and soon to be a father.
I felt a body beside me, and I gently wrapped my arm around her. She made the soft squeaking noises I had come to admire when we first joined together. I gently pulled her closer, enjoying the way she felt. A soft kiss made its way to the back of her neck. I nuzzled her, and heard a contented sigh.
"My husband, are you back to yourself?"
I smiled, "Yes, I am myself once again. Timidus, I must apologize for what had happened," I said softly, "Mannulus brought me back, and when he did there were two sides of me that fought against one another."
She turned to face me, "And have they stopped their fighting?"
I nodded, "Yes my love, they have. I am the combination of the two of them. Just as I have always been in truth."
She grinned, and gently she nuzzled my neck, "I'm glad. I was scared, and then that artbook. Did… Did it ever happen?"
I closed my eyes, and strangely I could see more than ever before. I could see other paths that had been taken. Paths where I had joined with Fluttershy, paths where I joined with Pinkie Pie, somewhere I remained the sole king of the Empire I ruled with the Royal sisters as my harem. All of these paths existed, yet for the here and now they were removed. I didn't want to upset her, because in truth I felt that my Timidus was as perfect as a mare that ever existed.
"For me, no. Those pictures are of… Alternate versions of myself. Versions of myself that ended up with different ponies," I kissed her softly, "and I feel pity for them. Because they have missed out on such a wonderful love."
She tried to hide her face, "You flatter me," she giggled.
I gently kissed her again, "And if given the chance I will do more. I believe that it is time I let my fellow guild members know that I am back to myself."
She looked at me, a worried expression on her face, "My love, another member has come back, and from what I heard she is your sister."
I smiled, "She's here?"
She nodded, "Yes, but something terrible has happened. I don't know what it is, but she barely speaks. She… Oh goddess, she acts as if someone has stolen her innocence."
My blood ran cold, I felt my expression turn to one of cold anger, "I see, I will visit with her, and find out if this whelp still lives. If so… Then I believe he should be introduced to a world of pain," I said, and I felt her hug against me. She gently kissed me, her love trying its hardest to hold me in place.
"From my understanding she killed him. But my love, please, do not leave me again. I don't know if I could bear it."
I gently kissed her, "I will do my best, but I do promise you that I will always return to you."
She took my promise and held me tight. My desire for revenge on behalf of my sister was strong, but her love for me was stronger. It beat my desire for revenge into submission, tied it up, and threw it into a corner. We stayed cuddled together for several minutes afterward. WHo knew a hug could temper a nascent rage? Her warmth radiated from her and seeped into me, quelling numerous thoughts of vengeance. We would have stayed that way had it not been for a knock on the door.
"Yo, Dave, you up bro?" Spoke a voice on the other side. If it were my sister, Janie would just waltz in. Her cutie mark allowed her to do that. So this had to be one of the other guild members.
"We are not sure," I replied, "Are we, a pegasus?"
From the other side of the door, I heard a sigh, then, "Yes, we are a pegasus."
"Then we are awake," I answered back, "and in the arms of a gorgeous mare. Come back in fifteen minutes."
"Right, right," came the voice of L0rd0f7hund3r, "go ahead and give your waifu twins. Imma get some coffee. Breakfast is cooking, by the way. Some local variants of canpakes. Might wanna get some before I devour 'em all."
"Oh, damn," I murmured, "Timidus, love, we should really get up. That was my fellow guild member, L0rd0f7hund3r. Make no mistake, he will eat everything that isn't already claimed."
"That will not do," Timidus told me, "I would like some of these 'canpakes,' whatever they are."
"You'll have to forgive L0rd0f7hund3r, My Love," I said, "that Fruedian slip of his comes through every now and then. What he means are pancakes."
"Like flapjacks?" My bride asks me.
"Yes, exactly like those," I answer, "how did you know of those?"
"Camp favorite," Timidus replies, before rising from the bed, "there's was a request cue for those about sixteen pony lengths long."
A few tender kisses were shared, and soon I found my closet. I looked inside and my tastes for clothes seemed to remain the same, but I wished to show that I was royalty. I selected my crown, black onyx, each tip gifted with a single emerald, and in the center a blue sapphire oval. Then there was my light armor. Pulling it on felt like stepping back into a second skin. The armor was designed to look as close to my royal suit as possible, and finally I found my cape. This was my pride. Pulling it on I felt the power from it. The cape itself granted the wearer the ability to become intangible, and I could remember how useful it had been.
Together I walked with Timidus as we neared the dining hall I stood in wonder at it. It was grand, as I remembered, and it certainly put my empire's own Dining Hall, in my castle, to shame. I walked with Timidus toward the long buffet style table, and I could see several of my subjects visiting with the newcomers. Then, I saw her. She sat close to a stallion, one that seemed just as fidgety and flighty as her. I neared her, and I saw her eyes widen. She put her plate down and wrapped me into a tight hug.
"I'm sorry," she blubbered as I held her.
"Shush, there is no sorry here. You've done nothing wrong."
She looked at me, fear in her eyes, "Sister, this is my bride, Timidus," I introduced the mother of my unborn foal, or foals, to my sister, "Timidus, this is my sister Mistress Marevelous."
I could see her friend looking at me, a look of shame, lust, and fear on his face. I bowed slightly to him, "It would be most improper to not ask if we could join you for the breaking of the fast."
He gave a small smile, "S..sure, I guess."
I took a seat near him, trying not to make him feel uneasy. It was obvious that he and my sister had become close. As close as they were I didn't pick up on any romantic feelings from either of them. Instead it was similar to that of a sister and a brother. They had forged a family in their trauma, and that family was strong. If she considered him a brother, I could do no less.
Temple of Celestia Sol
Dining Hall - Mannulus' P.O.V.
I watched Sombra, and I realized two things. The first was that he had managed to find himself, and the second was that whoever he had been before had changed. The easy response was that his change was from having died and then been resurrected. But, I didn't believe that. At least I didn't fully. Yes, he had changed, and yes the starting point was his death, but more than that I believed that his soul was new. It was formed from the two halves becoming one whole. Who he roleplayed as was who he was now.
It wasn't just his actions, but his very aura that supported this. I didn't mourn the death of my friend, instead I saw this as him, slightly changed, and hopefully well on his way toward peace. I sat with my brides, and I waited for something special to walk into the dining hall. I saw them, after a moment, and I heard Rainbow's breath come in a gasp. There, a mature pegasus mare and older pegasus stallion walked in. The older stallion had a prismatic mane like Rainbow's, and the mare seemed to be a little weak to stand, but both were getting around well.
"M...Mom, Dad? MOM! DAD!" my bride cried as she jumped up and shot over to them.
I watched as they caught her, hugging her, and she began to cry as she hugged them. I witnessed a part of her light up as she walked over to our table, and then together they took a seat near her. Both of them remembered the battle where they perished, and both remembered the final blow, but neither remembered what happened after that.
"They were ready?" Twilight asked.
I smiled, "More or less. I had resurrected them fully last night. The lab healed their bodies, restoring them completely, and it was just a matter of finding their souls."
She leaned against me, "You constantly display such generosity toward all of us. When I believe that I have seen the depths of your generous nature you show that it runs deeper."
I kissed her, "Twilight, what good is power if we can not use it for the ones we love?"
Temple of Celestia Dining Hall - Clopmaniac's P.O.V.
The moment I saw Sombra out and about made me neithers twitch. Not gonna lie, he was a fine specimen, the kind that deserved a good ride, a nice cuddle, and a gentle smack on the arse. But, I ain't the kind ta take another's man. His bride was happy, pregnant, and I'm supposing getting a mighty fine dickin' on the regular. I looked at the platter of pancakes, the bottle of honey, and I silently wished for someone to make me feel like that lass felt.
I heard the sound of Starlight Glimmer entering the hall with Trixieisagoddess, and I looked toward them. Starlight was still dressed like a sex doll. Her high heel boots showing off that pert arse of hers. They were fun, but again, not what I really wanted. Fun was good and ever'thing, but it only made ya feel wanted fer a while. I wanted to feel like that more than a while. I wanted ta always feel wanted.
"This seat taken?"
I looked up ta see 7hund3r. He gave me a smile, and I offered the seat ta him. Taking it he bit inta his own pancakes.
"Good breakfast."
I gave a nod, "Sure, not bad."
He looked at me, "Something wrong?"
I looked at my rapidly sogging pancakes, "Kinda wonderin' if'n there's something wrong with me. Feel like ever'thing is moving toward something good. Fockin' hell, if this was the Fallout Equestria universe I'd wonder if'n I wasn't fockin' Blackjack."
He laughed, "Actually if it was I'm pretty sure you would be fucking Blackjack. And I would wonder which of you would be the sub and which the dom. And how much to watch!"
I laughed, "True, but doubt we'd last, and it'd cost more than ya have you numpty," I lightly punched him, "Still, I wonder, why ain't I found someone?"
He took a bite, "Honestly, I figured that you and Trixieisagoddess were an item."
I looked at him, laughed, and then shook my head, "Naw, she's a right drama queen. Not ta mention I think she likes stickin' it up a mare's arse too much. Ever see how Starlight has ta sit down easy, usually leaning on one side or the other? Yeah, that comes from a hard night of buggerin. Figure that Starlight has been gettin' her arse rammed hard. Still, she seems ta like it, and I ain't gonna tell someone that they can't like a little of the backdoor in and out."
He grinned and swallowed a bite of pancakes, "Damn, guess she's making up for lost time then."
I nodded, "7hund3r, why didn't ya ever make a pass at me?"
I saw him swallow hard, "Ummmm…"
I gestured toward me tits, "I ain't ugly, and ya know I swing both ways, so what was the hold up?"
I saw take a huge chunk of pancakes, wash it down with some fresh milk, then swallow loudly, "Okay, I kinda figured this would come up at some point. Might as well put it out in the open. First off, you fucking scare me. Secondly, All that drinking you do is off putting to me. You do know that my family is straddled on both sides by alcoholics, right? Lastly, I don't really know you from Adam. We haven't met in any place other than in Ragnorak, so I know next to nothing about you. Yeah, you may be hot as fuck, but you're also a hot mess. I've had enough drama in my life thus far to be adding to it. Happy now?"
I glanced at him, "Meetin' me in here is meetin' me. There ain't no truer representation of who we are than who we present in here. We don't have ta pretend ta be anyone else. We're free ta be ourselves, and we ain't gotta pretend. What I've shown you is who I am really am. If'n that ain't ta your likin' sorry, but thanks fer being honest with me."
"Maybe for you, your in-game persona is who you really are," L0rd0f7hund3r said to me, "but not all of us operate like that. Especially now, when everything is more real than ever. Some of us, like myself, used the game as an escape from life. In more ways than one."
L0rd0f7hund3r stood up and left the table. It made me ponder what he said. An escape from life? Well, that is true for most. But for Steve, that phrase sounded like it meant a lot more than the words he spoke. But what could that doozy prat be trying to escape from? What in his life before on The Outside was troublesome that he would delve into the game the way he did? Trouble for another day, methinks.
Temple of Celestia Sol - Dining Room - Mistress Marevelous' P.O.V.
Hearing him and seeing him felt surreal. I couldn't believe it. My brother, with a woman, well mare, and married. Although it was odd. He was acting as if he was Sombra. I remembered 7hund3r saying something about how he was basically two souls joined together. But it didn't matter. It didn't because he knew me, and he knew what I was like. His wife was timid, shy, but open, and obviously I could see why he liked her.
She was very easy to like, but for him, specifically, it was most likely because of his desire for Fluttershy. Which I saw her, and Lighting. Both of them sat happily together, giggling like a couple of teenagers. I was glad for Lighting, but at the same time I kept worrying for her. Some part of me screaming to keep her from getting abused. I felt a hand and I looked into my brother's eyes.
"Be still my sister. There is none here that wishes you harm, and none that will desire anything more than your happiness."
I nodded, "I'm a mess, aren't I?"
He visibly relaxed, "No, you are acting as you should," he looked at me, and then past me, "I was not there to stop what happened from happening. In that regard, I have failed you as a brother."
I shook my head, "No, you didn't."
He looked at me, "Yes, I have. I should have been there to protect you. You should never have went through what you did."
I looked down in shame, "Do you know all of it?"
He shook his head, "I do not, and perhaps it is best. Because if I did I would demand that Mannulus raise your captors from their eternal sleep, and then I would slowly teach them the error of their ways. It would take years for them to learn, and when they had finally learned their place I would ensure that their new end would be just as agonizing and terrible."
I studied him, and even that what he said was terrible, it set me at ease. He was still my brother, and he wouldn't let that happen again.
"Thank you," I said.
Suavis seemed to peer past us, "Ummm, who is that mare with the odd bacon colored hair, because she keeps looking at me like I'm the food."
I rolled my eyes, "Her name is Clopmaniac, and trust me, she will do you no harm."
Sombra smiled, "She's just deciding if she wants to attempt to get to know you, and if you would take to it."
He shivered, "N...No thanks. I'm not really into mares."
I smiled, "I know, and believe me whatever your preference, you are welcomed here."
He nodded, "Thanks… It's just…"
I touched his hand, "Suavis, I understand, but you don't have to be afraid here."
He breathed in, let it out slowly, and then focused on his food. I looked at Clop, instantly deciding that I was going to let her know that her mentally undressing and fucking Suavis was making him feel terrible. I was more than certain that she would respect boundaries, although I bet that she would still try to steal looks. It was just part of who she was.
Sanctus Theocracy - Church like Structure - Surgery room - Anok the Destroyer's P.O.V.
Pain filled my senses as I felt the failure of my eye being scooped out. Whatever the fucker Sombra the Magnificent had cast at me, it was causing every single replacement eye to die, rot, and have to be scooped out. At first it was fine. It wasn't like we didn't have a bunch of fucktards following our every command that I could choose from for a replacement. But after the hundredth people stop volunteering as often. Not to mention getting your fucking eye ripped out over, and over again sucked!
I growled as the surgeon did her job. She didn't know it, but after she finished I was going to fuck her ass hard. I was going to show her exactly what kind of pain she was putting me through. I would have her begging for me to stop, to leave her alone, and I would ignore it, because the bitch deserved every second of pain I was going to give her. I felt her finish, a quick cleaning, that felt like she was pushing pure brimstone into my eye socket.
She finished, by putting an eye patch on the empty socket. She turned from me.
"We're sorry the eye didn't take my lord."
She turned from me, and I pushed her forward. She gasped and tried to get away. I ripped her robe open, causing her to scream.
"Shut up!"
She screamed again as I forced myself inside of her. She tried to get away only for me to hit her.
"Stay still!"
For once, I was glad for the soundproofing spell.
Surgery room - an hour later - Surgeon's P.O.V.
He was gone. I… I don't know what I had done to upset Lord Anok so terribly, but what he did. Goddess Pudicitia, protect me, please, protect my virtue, return it to me, retain my purity, Goddess Pudicitia please…
I wept as I crawled. He had hurt me so badly, I could barely move. There was a slick, and thick wetness forming from where he took me. I couldn't bear this. I can't bear this. I looked at the window, we were up high, several floors, the fall was deadly to those like me. I pulled myself to it. I opened it, hearing the night around me. The cool air whispered promises of freedom from my shame. I began to pull myself out when the door opened.
"Well, Anok really did a number," she said.
I looked back at Mistress TheTuetonicRose. She looked toward me, her face amused. She neared me, pulling me inside from my freedom. I felt her lay me down, her hand glowing. A moment later I felt something push into my mind. I felt a sudden longing for her. She kissed me softly.
"You wanted Anok to do this, didn't you?"
I shook my head, "No, it hurt," I whimpered.
She touched my cheek, "But you like pain, remember?"
I shivered, "I do… Will you hurt me?"
She grabbed my breasts hard, "Of course. Now, you wanted it from Anok, didn't you?"
I nodded, "Yes, he was so rough, it was wonderful," I whispered.
She smiled at me, "Good, now, I want you to describe, in detail, how you enjoyed everything he did to you."
I looked at her and smiled, "He entered my anus, roughly, and I loved how much it burned. I loved how it felt like I was being torn into."
She smiled at me, "Good, now, I'm going to heal you, and then you are going to entertain both of us."
I nodded, feeling my body mending. I stood and she walked behind me. I heard Lord Anok the Destroyer join her.
"Did you do it?"
"Yes, she was easy. Her mind is open now. But for god's sake, don't break this one. I want to feel her ass as well."
I heard him laugh, "I can't promise."
I shivered as we entered his room.
"Strip," he commanded, and I smiled. My robes came off, and I moved toward the bed.
"Are you ready slut?" he asked.
"Yes Lord Anok the Destroyer, Please, make me your woman."
He laughed, pushed me onto the bed, and I saw Mistress TheTuetonicRose climb into the bed next to me. Her beauty was more than my own. She kissed me, pushing me onto my back. I saw my Lord Anok the Destroyer climb between my legs. He pushed them apart, and then pushed into me. I cried out as he took me. Some part of me said this was wrong, but I silenced it. I wanted him to take me once more.
