A/n hey guys! It's SadHellhound again with another update for new beginnings. The story is going very well and I have to say thank y'all, we are almost 1000 away from our goal. Whenever we reach that goal I will accept several ideas from you, the readers
to write a special story! So, start sending ideas, I'll choose seven of them and let y'all decide. I will create a poll and see where it goes from there, now that we have discussed this, let's begin.
Chapter 25: The End Of Time?
The sound of arguing the occasionally sound of stomping rips me back to reality from the world of slumber. I yawn slowly and look to see Dashie verbally assaulting Twilight, making her whine and cower from her close and loyal friend. In one swift motion
I'm between the two of them. My mind races as they both look at me, both with anger and sadness carrying in their voices. They both talk about why I was holding Twilight, making me narrow my eyes into deep slits. I hug them both, fighting my instincts
and mind. My mind encourages me to help them while my instincts tell me to devour them whole, not leaving a trace. Dashie and Twilight look up at me, calming slightly.
"Stop. Fighting." I speak in a low and disturbed growl, like a feral animal with damaged vocal cords. They both tense and look down, not wishing to push the envelope farther as I then smile and nuzzle them. "Good." I stroke both of
their heads before setting them down and standing, examining the shelves of books that surround me. They look at each other as Twilight apologizes, saying that I kept calling her master for reasons unbeknownst to her. Dashie and her talk while I start
to read a book about armor and weapons. The world fades away from me as I read about an armor called Golem Hide. It is made of black steel, covered in vines and stone plates, embedded with magical properties. My eyes shine a little, excited about
the armor. It is five inches thick and has a core on the chest that allows an enchantment to be placed. It has a helm shaped like a knight's helm. Except with spike from the brow to the base of the neck. On the back the spikes continue all the way
to the bottom of the spine. The gloves are large, made for durability and flexibility. I stare at the picture longingly while the sudden feeling of being touched pulls me back to the reality of the library.
I look down to see Dashie and Twilight hugging my leg, both showing a sense of knowing and affection. My hand clenches slightly before both of my hands are scratching behind their ears like how you would a small pup. They smile as I look back into the
book, now looking at weapons. The Golem Hide armor stays in my mind as I examine a club called Harbinger. The Harbinger is a rare club with a special feature, it fuses with its owner, being able to materialize out of thin air and appear into their
hands. It weighs twenty pounds, covered in barbs on the large blunt end while the bottom has dark ribbons that permanently bind it to the one it calls master. It can range from a two handed weapon to a simple set of duel clubs. My eyes trace the beautiful
steel before I put the book back in its small cubby and shaking my head, wondering on why I have such a fascination with these wagons and armor. I hear my stomach growl and start to walk to the smell of food, only for Dashie to fly over with a large
slice of what she calls pecan pie. I slowly sniff it, feeling my mouth water with anticipation of the delicious treat. My fangs spread wide, allowing a piece of the pie to enter my mouth.
I bite down and let my eyes go wide, very please with the amazing taste. Slowly I eat it, savoring every bite. Dashie and Twilight smile as I lick the succulent cream from my fingers. I hug them both tightly and nuzzle, showing them affection for feeding
me a glorious prize. I lick my lips happily before twilight walks over, her horn glowing. "Good news Justis. While you were reading I found the spell to bring your memory back!" Blinking slowly, I smile happily and stare at her, excited
to remember everything. She places her horn to my head, making my head scream in pain and face contort into a painful expression. I watch the world go back as I remember, that I am the human that will protect Equestria.
Hours later I slowly open my eyes, staring at the familiar faces of Twilight and Rainbow Dash staring down at me and smiling. I hug them both and start to cry happily. "Thank y'all so much girls, it means so much to me." They stroke my hair
as I whine and hug tighter, loving the familiar feeling of the love from them. My eyes close as I sigh and slowly get up as I stretch and smile at them. They let their tails wag excitedly, probably glad to have the old Justis back. I smile, still
looking like the feral version of myself.
Twilight watches me as I happily stretch my legs and look around the room; my eyes searching for anything that can aid me in hiding the darkness inside my mind and soul. Twilight and Dashie hug my legs making me smile happily. My clawed hand gently scratch
behind their ears while the sound of screaming echoes within my mind. I happily create a pair of snow camouflaged cargo pants that are slightly baggy. I then put on a pair of grey and black boots with a simple steel toe. I stretch and smile at them
as Dashie states at my chest and stomach, making me cock my head in confusion. Shrugging it off I go to the kitchen and start to make some food. Soon, I have a small sandwich with tomato, lettuce, avocado, jalapeños, and a little bit of mayonnaise.
I happily take a bite, loving the flavor as I chew thoughtfully, thinking of what the future may consist of.
I slowly finish my sandwich before smiling and going to Dashie and Twilight who are talking in hushed whispers, clearly hiding something. Smiling playfully, I pick them both up in a bear hug, screaming how cute they look. They both laugh, clearly to have
the old me back. I happily stretch with them in my arms as they both look up at me smiling. They nuzzle my chest before I set them down softly on the ground. My black eyes stare at them before looking around the library, seeking anything that may
aid me in magic. They follow close behind as I start to read a book about folklore. I freeze when I see picture of a human surrounded by ponies, living in harmony. I gasp in shock and stare at the human, who is covered in markings of a tribe.
Quickly I throw the book and fall on my ass, confused on why that was in the folklore, why was that a thing, how, how in the world! Dashie runs over to check on me as Twilight picks up the book and stares at the picture before quickly looking at me. She
reads the story at breakneck pace before closing the book and laying it down, with dismay and fear residing within her eyes. She looks at me nervously before pulling Dashie away. I frown and reach for them, only for Twilight to slap my hand away.
"Twilight! What are you doing!?" She pulls her away, trying to whisper what she read, but to scared. "I-in the folklore. A bipedal creature will be summoned by a pony, only for the creature to bring destruction to the land! It looks exactly
like it!" She points at me when she says it, making tears brim in my eyes. Dashie shoves her away and looks at her. "Show me!" She shows her, making Dadhie tense and look at me worriedly.
"Justis.. Wouldn't do that.. He wouldn't!" Twilight growls. "Look, it says that the creatures are nothing but animals who manipulate!" I sadly get up, as I hear the voices in my head, all screaming in unison. 'KILL HER KILL HER KILL
HER KILL HER!' Quickly I go to leave, only for the door to be barricaded with magic. I freeze and turn around to see Twilight about to shoot me with a powerful beam. It never fires, as my foot connects with her jaw, snapping her head to the right
and sending her flying into the wall. I sob as Dadhie runs over to check on Twilight, allowing me to look at the hands of the monster I've become. I go to heal Twilight, only for Dashie to bite my hand hard, drawing blood. She looks up at me angrily
as I jerk my hand back, ripping off part of the skin of my knuckle.
Dashie screams with anger in her voice. "Leave! Leave and never come back you.. You freak!" It finally clicks on my head, that no matter where I go, I am a freak… "Dashie…." She yells. "Don't call me that! You don't have the right!
You are nothing but a monster!" Shockwaves shoot through my body, like a knife slicing my heart. I tremble as she makes sure Twilight is alive. With her back turned to me. I teleport to my house. No one there as I slowly create a ball of fire
and sob angrily and sadly. The fireball hits the old wood and quickly consumes it as I leave the house and head into the everfree.
(Chrysalis P.O.V. Three hours later)
Me and my children happily walk home, talking of the gifts we have gotten for Justis. Xavier happily flies beside me, talking excitedly about his bubba as the smell of smoke reaches our nostrils. I freeze and look at the sky, only to see fire and smoke
licking the sky, like a hound of hell. We all run and scream, heading towards the fire, only to see Justis' home in cinders. I stare in shock and tear up as a group of ponies run over. All of the elements of harmony. Twilight has a large bandage on
her cheek as they stare at the fire, as if it is a blessing.. All except Fluttershy who is sobbing.
My hoof slams into her cheek as I scream. "WHAT DID YOU FUCKING DO!" They stare at me as tears fall from my eyes. I look into Rainbow Dash's eyes, only for her to look away, as if she is ashamed but happy he is gone. Twilight laughs softly and
smiles with a shit-eating look. "We are protecting Equestria from a monster." I hear several gasps, all from my kids. Twilight kicks some of the ashes before having the others go to leave. Fluttershy runs to the ashes sobbing as Applejack
does the same, knowing this ain't right. Pinkie has her hair straight, with a look of anger and insanity inside of her eyes. Rainbow dash stands beside Twilight, not looking back as Rarity keeps looking back at the rubble. I quickly try to gather
any belongings, finding none that haven't been destroyed.
I stare at the ruins, feeling my heart shatter into the dust of oblivion. Crying echoes around me as I turn around to see my children and a few of the elements crying. The only two not crying are Rainbow Dash and Twilight, who have stone expressions.
I stomp towards them angrily while tears stream down my face, hating them more than anything. They leave into the night with Rainbow Dash looking over her shoulder at the remains of his home. Rarity softly pulls away her friends, telling them it is
for the best, trying to stop the sobs escaping her throat. Fluttershy just sits there and sobs while Pinkie Pie glares at the sky while screaming thousands of curses and swears. Applejack lowers her hat in front of her eyes, not making a single noise.
We all sit there, staring into the ashes.. Wondering if he is even alive.
A/n there we go! Now, another cliff hanger MEHAHAHAH!
