Wayvern charged and was sent flying by Soulbreak's backhand alone. He got up and was pushed back again and again.
"Your hate makes you weak!" Soulbreak said. "You won't get your mother back by fighting me! What do you stand to gain!?"
"It's not just about my mother!" Wayvern said. "You split my mother's spirit into six and turned my father into a monster! I want my Father back!"
"You have your father, Wayvern!" Discord's voice resonated through the battlefield. He jumped off a building and landed on his feet uninjured, the same monstrosity that Wayvern met in Equestria. "I remember now!" he pulled out a transformer and held it in front of him. "Evolution! Execution!" his form changed to that of a human with flowing black hair and blue eyes. He was wearing an armored Shōzoku, or ninja garb.
"Is that Dream Runner?" Twilight asked from the alley where she and Applejack hid. "Son of Starswirl the Bearded?"
"It is," Wayvern said. "That's the first King of Equestria… Dream Runner."
"So you have Backup!" Soulbreak said. "I'll still break you both!"
"I can forgive you for what you did to my wife," Dream Runner said. "But you are still a Kaiju, and must be destroyed." He pulled a sword, scabbard and all, off his waist and shouted "Bezwinger!" Wayvern noticed small movements as Soulbreak took a beating.
"How'd he do that!?" Applejack asked. "He didn't even move!"
"Yeah he did, just faster than the eye can see," Twilight said. Wayvern stood up and rushed to meet Dream Runner.
"Can you still fight, Wayvern? Or have you yet to forgive yourself for your mother's death?"
"What?"
"You're defeat wasn't because you couldn't forgive Soulbreak, it was because you couldn't forgive yourself."
Wayvern was so confused, so he ignored the thought and slashed the final blow across Soulbreak's torso. The core was revealed and Dream Runner split it down the middle.
"You really are my father." Wayvern said.
"Yes, my son. Forgive me for the brevity of the reunion, but this is not the place to account the missing time." Just as Dream Runner said that, the Second life of Soulbreak sprouted from the ashes.
