My Little Pony: A New World, A New Life
Celestia took a step back, "You want to-why would you want to bring back Discord?!" she yelled at him.
Erebus just laughed for a second, much to Celestia's anger. "Because Tia, if you remember, back when we were little. Discord and I were good friends. We did everything together. Prank you and your sister, cause mischief around Canterlot, and just hang out. But you" He pointed at Celestia and glared at her" You turned him down when he told you how he felt for you. All because he was the spirit of chaos…and then you sealed him into stone, when he decided to vent his anger. But I guess there is still some good news. "Erebus stopped and let it all sink in their minds.
"Wait you said there was still good news? How would there be good news for you if Discord is incased in stone?" Luna asked
Erebus looked at her with a cruel smirk, "Now I didn't say it was good news for you, now did I?" This had all of them worried and curious, Celestia spoke up now.
"Well? What is this so called good news of which you speak?" She asked, getting tired of Erebus' delaying.
Erebus chuckled, "The good news is that before you encased him into stone. Discord, had a child that would succeed him and become the new spirit of chaos." He said with a smirk.
Celestia just looked at him confused. Discord has a child? But how? "But how exactly did he have this child? And where has he or she been all these years? Because I am pretty sure he would wish to get revenge for his father."
"Oh. That is quite difficult to explain my dear, so I shall not explain the first question. But to answer your second question. He….was, how you say, not a part of this world at the time." He said
This had them all completely stumped. Not a part of this world? What does that mean? Luna decided to voice the question they all had on their mind. "What do you mean, not a part of this world?" She asked, clearly getting frustrated with Erebus.
"Meaning he was born in this world, but, grew up in another. Discord had figured he would be defeated by the Elements of Harmony, so he took his child, within a few months of him being born, and gave him to his mother to raise in a different world, in a completely different dimension." Erebus said as he looked around at the shocked faces of the ponies.
"What do you mean different dimension? I have heard of no such spell to travel between dimensions." Celestia said clearly irritated.
"Ah, Discord had found a spell not even you knew of. But somehow you discovered something similar to it. Seeing how that Matthew, child, and his little friend, Vile, are here." Erebus said in a smug tone.
Luna just looked at him confused, what does Matthew and Vile have to do with this….unless….. "No…..That cannot be right…" Luna said, "Matthew is too nice of a young man!" She yelled at him
"Ah it seems you figured it out, my little princess of the night." Erebus said chuckling. He stared at everyone in front of him. A look of realization appeared on Celestia's face.
"No…don't tell me that-"
"That's right Celestia!" Erebus grinned, "The child of Discord is…..Matthew Blackwell!" He shouted, causing those that knew him gasp. "You brought the boy back Celestia, you brought Discords heir back from the dimension where he was raised by his mother, who is now deceased, unfortunately. I feel sorry for the poor lad. Never knowing his father and his mother being dead…not knowing or having any other family, besides Vile, of course. But Ville is not really his family; he is just a split personality, not a real person." Erebus starts laughing, looking at all there horrified looks.
Luna just shakes her head looking down at her feet, "There is just no way…how is Matthew the son of Discord…? This just makes no since…." Luna looks up at her sister to see how she is reacting to this. The look that was on her face was the very one she wore when she sent Luna to the moon those many years ago.
Celestia just looked at Erebus, lost in her own thoughts. 'Matthew is…then that means that I….no, this cannot be...' Celestia glares at Erebus. "There is just no way that Matthew is the son of Discord! Matthew is a human, Discord is not! That just wouldn't work!"
Erebus just laughed but when he was about to say something, the crisp sound of lightning was heard and something black and fast flew towards Erebus, but he jumped out of the way before it hit him. When the thing hit the ground, a great explosion went off, sending electricity everywhere; causing everyone to duck and the sisters make shields, with their magic to protect themselves.
As the smoke settled and cleared away the dark shape of a humanoid figure could be seen.
Erebus lands a few feet away and looks at the figure with a smirk. "So you finally decide to show up, eh, Vile?" Everyone turns to look at the figure and Luna looks at it in hopes that it is Vile and that he can help.
"So you finally decide to show yourself, Erebus." The dust clears away and Vile is seen standing in a crater with a black lance, with silver edging in his hand and bits of stray electricity flowing from it.
"I thought I sealed you away deep inside Matthew's heart." Vile points his lance at Erebus, "What are you doing free?"
Erebus just laughs, which causes Vile to glare at him. "It's simple Vile, my boy. Matthew let me free. He wanted to teach that pony," Erebus points at the pony who threw the rock at Luna" A lesson for trying to hurt that pretty little princess of the night over there." Pointing his thumb at Luna. "That pony called Luna a monster, and Matthew asked him if he wanted to see a real monster, thus he let me free. How he knew about my presence I may never know. But that's not important, yet." Erebus laughs a little.
Vile glares at Erebus more and positions himself to charge Erebus with his lance. "I don't care if the boy let you out! You won't corrupt his mind anymore!" Vile charges at Erebus, whom only smirks and places his hand in front of himself, summoning a scythe of pure black matter. He swings it back and slashes at Vile, both of their weapons clashing, causing a bright flash of light.
Area Shift: Unknown Area
'Darkness…I tend to see allot of that lately…..' Matthew looks up as he lays on what seems to be nothing, yet it's solid enough for him to lay on. He sighs and sits up looking around himself. Darkness, everywhere. Sighing he stands up and looks over himself, not a single scare or mark on him. Only problem is, he is naked.
"Where the heck are my clothes?" He asked out loud, but all he got as an answer was an echo of his own voice. He sighs and begins to walk around, just looking around. "Where am I?" after he asked that a cold dark fog starts to sweep in covering him from the waist down. "Da-dang it's cold in here!" Matthew said as he shivered wrapping his arms around himself.
He continues to walk not knowing where he was going, until he saw a strange shape in the distance. "Hmm, what is that?" Matthew then decided to move towards it, not really having any other option. Upon arriving at the mysterious object he sees a statue of a creature he has only seen in books about mythology. He was staring at a statue of a Draconequus.
He felt a strong pull in the back of his mind telling to touch the pedestal in which it stood. So, he did so, but when he did something strange happened. The statue flashed a blinding white, forcing him to cover in his eyes. When the light died down and his sight had fully returned he noticed a familiar yet insane laughter.
"Ohhh man it sure is great to be free from that rocky prison." Said the voice. Matthew turned to look in its direction, he was shocked at what he saw. The creature that he just saw petrified in a stone prison was now standing before him, breaking down into a full-blown break dance.
Matthew could only stare at the creature and finally worked up the will to speak, "E-excuse me….put who are you?" He asked, catching the Draconequus' attention. It stared at him for a minute and bowed mockingly.
"My name is Discord, the Spirit of Chaos, and may I know the name of the one who has set my free?" It Discord said in a formal but kinda playful tone.
"My name is Matthew, Matthew Blackwell." Matthew said as he stared at Discord. He was feeling a sense of nostalgia, not knowing why though.
Discord looked shocked at the kid before him, "Did you say Blackwell?". He had a bit of an anxious edge to his voice.
Matthew stared at him for a minute, as if calculating him. "Yes I did say Blackwell. What of it? Does that name hold interest to you or something?" Matthew noted Discord's posture stiffen when he asked that.
Discord's eyes shifted from side to side for a minute a cold sweat breaking out on the back of his neck. He was having a mental war, 'I can't tell him the truth, at least not yet. I need some way to stall time…..Wait! I got it!'. Discord grins a little and turns to look at Matthew.
"I'll tell you what you need to know if you can do a simple task for me."
"What kind of task…" Matthew glared at Discord.
"Simple my boy, if you really are a Blackwell, then you'll be able to play this," he summons a guitar.
Matthew looked at the guitar for a minute before grabbing it. The guitar is a midnight blue with silver strings and the neck of the guitar is black. "Beautiful…" He said as he looked it over.
"It's a Blackwell family heirloom. Only a true Blackwell will know how to play." Discord said with a smile, but Matthew could see the serious look in his eyes.
"Ok then, if you say only a Blackwell can play it then let's get to it!" Matthew said strumming the guitar.
-MUSIC TIME! (I don't not own)-
They keep playing sad songs on the radio
And I feel like I'm so alone
On this 15-hour drive
And all the while I tell myself to just believe
Cause nobody can give so much
And never get anything
(never get anything)
Everyone I used to know
Says they don't know what I've become
But I'm still the same
Not much has changed
I still know where I came from
I fell asleep with the lights on
And I can see that you're the first one in a long time
That had some faith in me
(have faith in me)
Tell my friends we won't be long
The Florida sun begs me to come back home
And it feels like I'm ready for anything
If you can wait for me
And all the while I say too much of what I think
And I can't remember what it's like to find meaning in anything
For the life of me
Everyone I used to know
Says they don't know what I've become
But I'm still the same
Not much has changed
I still know where I came from
And all I ever wanted was so far from what I need
I'll write my songs, they'll sing along, and hope time heals everything
I fell asleep with the lights on
And I can see that you're the first one in a long time
That had some faith in me
(have faith in me)
Tell my friends we won't be long
The Florida sun begs me to come back home
And it feels like I'm ready for anything
If you can wait for me
This is all I have!
This is all I have!
It's my life
This is all I have!
This is all I have!
I fell asleep with the lights on
And I can see that you're the first one in a long time
That had some faith in me
(have faith in me)
Tell my friends we won't be long
The Florida sun begs me to come back home
And it feels like I'm ready for anything
If you can wait for me
I fell asleep with the lights on
And I can see that you're the first one in a long time
That had some faith in me
(have faith in me)
Tell my friends we won't be long
The Florida sun begs me to come back home
And it feels like I'm ready for anything
If you can wait for me
-Song End-
Matthew looked at the guitar and grinned, "Told you I could play."
Discord looked at Matthew with a nod of approval; "Yes you did, and you did a good job too." But a hint of anger and worry was in his voice.
Matthew fixed Discord with a glare," Now tell me. What does the name Blackwell mean to you?"
Discord sighed and hung his head. Looking at Matthew he said, "I guess it was only a matter of time before we met. I just wish I had more time to plan…."
Tilting his head in confusion, he asked. "What do you mean. 'Only a matter of time'? Am I supposed to know you or something?" Matthew looked at Discord with such confusion.
Discord looked back down, "Matthew may I ask you a question….?"
Matthew glared, "What kind of question?"
"One about your father." Discord said bluntly, looking at Matthew.
His eyes widened in shock. 'My…my father…? What does he know about him?'. "Ok Discord, ask away.
Discord sighs one more time and looks at Matthew, "What or better yet how much do you know about him?"
Caught off guard Matthew faltered a little. "What do I know about him? Well nothing really except for the fact that my mum really loved him, and that he left us the day I was born….." Matthew growled at that last part, venom dripping from his words.
Discord flinched at his tone and looked down, "What would you say if I could take you to him?"
Matthew, caught off guard once again, looked at Discord in surprise. "You'll take me to see my dad? How do you know him?" He asked.
Discord stayed quiet for a few minutes before looking at Matthew. His reply was, "Because…I am him Matthew." Discord put his hands out. "I am your father."
Matthew looked at Discord in pure and utter shock. 'Discord is my father….how….why…..'. Rage started to build up in him. 'Why….why?! Why did he abandon me and my mother…..'. Matthew's shocked expression soon turned into a hate filled glare. He walked up to Discord and slugged him across the face, sending him to the ground.
Discord wasn't surprised when he felt the punch hitting his cheek. But what really surprised him was that when he looked up at Matthew. He was crying. Discord stared in shock at his son, "Matthew…".
"Why….", Matthew fell to the floor, the tears pouring out, "Why did you leave us…Why…". Matthew looked at Discord dead in his eyes. "How could you sit there and not help us when mother was sick?! She is dead now….I was left alone at our house….I had no friends or family….Where were you dad…Where were you…." Matthew slumped down, tears pouring out like waterfalls.
Not knowing what to do, Discord stood there. 'What do I do? What do I do?' He was thinking but his conscious answered him.
'Go to him Discord. He needs you.'
Discord nodded his head and walked up to Matthew and gave him a big, comforting hug. "Shhh, Matthew…listen. I know is was never there for you before, but I am here now. Please, son…let me try and make it up to you, and give you the father you should have had before. I love you son." Discord looked at Matthew and Matthew looked back at him, his eyes wide.
Matthew had tears on the verge of pouring out again before he hugged Discord in a close loving hug. "Ok dad, I'll give you another chance." Matthew said with tears of joy coming out of his eyes. He finally had a father. Then a happy thought came to him. 'I cant wait for Luna to meet him!'
Matthew looked at Discord. "Dad I want you to meet two really great friends of mine."
"Ok son, may I ask who they are?"
Matthew laughs softly, "One of them is my friend/brother Vile, and the other is Princess Luna!" He said the last one with a lot of joy.
Discord's eyes widened in shock. "Did you say, Princess L-Luna?"
