Chapter II: Roots
When they finished their laugh Spike asked Rage an interesting Question "So Rage I've been wondering what was your childhood like?"
"Oh my..." Rage says "That's a long story but also... I has a secret I haven't told you guys yet..."
Where I come from: The story of Rage's childhood as told by Rage
I was born the eldest of three hedgehogs. My father's name was Maxim Chaotic he was a great hedgehog excelling in inter-dimensional studies. My mother Madison Chaotic the Hedgehog. I was the only one to really get to know them out of my siblings. I remember my 8th birthday the hedgehog who would later become my mortal enemy Christain killed my mother and our father was out at the time. and took Xage from us. This left me and Icezer the police took us to a foster home where we were soon adopted by James the Fox and Julia the Fox a newly wed couple that wanted children but Julia did not want to give birth.
Both were taken by our story and took us with loving arms... We lived with them and became family like we were with them our whole lives. Come my first high school year was when it all changed... It was winter break and I was on a trip with my friends... it was the day I became who I am today. I was approached by Dex who would be my guide for the next few years; in the wee hours of the night he took me and explained everything. I returned home after the trip and school began normally.
Come mid April Christain returned... this time he killed both my new parents... I may have only been 14 and he was an immortal being of darkness but that did not stop me. Watching him stab both the two I had bonded with like my first parents with his long claws. I was furious enough was enough I leaped at him and kicked him down...
"You ignorant rat!" he yelled at me "Do you know who I am? Do you have a death wish?!"
"Honostly I don't care who you are!" I responded "You have killed my birth parents taken one of my brothers and now you kill my adoption parents! I have had enough even if it may be a death wish I and going to teach you that if you mess with the Chaotic family you pay the price!" I fought him to a draw before he escaped and the rest you already know.
"But you said something about a secret you had yet to tell us about." Twilight injected
"I am getting to that" Rage responds
Just recently I was out in the Whitetale woods here in Equestira... I sumbled upon a hidden underground home inside was a letter on a desk it had MY name on it not my Equestrian name but my name from Mobius. I knew it was my fathers because nobody else knew my last name. I opened the letter and what I read was shocking...
A letter from Maxim Chatoic to his son Rage Chatoic the Hedgehog. (Rage never shares it with his friends)
Dear my son Rage Chaotic the Hedgehog,
I hope you get this letter somehow... This will help clear a lot of things up I am sure. I remember when you mother was killed I read it on the news I was too ashamed to return I was not there when I was needed most. I was a coward I using my discoveries teleported myself to another world... a world inhabited by Equine ponies they had named it Equestia. I met a beautiful woman by the last name of... Spark but she never told me the true name was actually SPARKLE. I hope you understand that you actually came after this marrage... you turned out to be different... I remember returning to Mobius with you once and you were a hedgehog when we returned I hope you understand that naturally you are of both and your two brothers technically are older then you. I hope you are not troubled by this too much... you have an older brother that we had before you as well I cannot tell his name because I forgot. If you ever get this letter...I am sorry for not returning and I hope you understand. Rage I know you will do great things in your life... I can feel it. If you question our relation with them by any chance look for the name Red Blaze... your first name before I named you on mobius. I understand you think I may be crazy but I erased your memories of this for your own safety I hope you can forgive me...
Your regretful Father,
Maxim Chaotic the Hedgehog

"So the true secret is in the letter I discovered I may be related to Twilight in some way..." Rage admits
Everypony gasps at this and Twilight looks like it was impossible "How is that even remotely possible? You are from Mobius not here!"
"That's the thing, my father Maxim Chaotic married a mare by the last name of Sparkle after he fled her out of guilt. He said he had me and another pony but when he took me to Mobius he saw me transform from a pony to a hedgehog so he left me there. He said I was once known as Red Blaze I never would have known." Rage says
"Hold up a second here" Twilight says grabbing a book and flipping through pages.
"Uh Twilight what are you looking for?" Applejack asks her when she begins reading a page aloud with a shocked expression
"Maxim Chaotic and Laura Sparkle children, Red Blaze current whereabouts: Unkown Luara Sparkle is my mothers sister... that means!" Twilight couldn't help but nearly faint
"We are cousins... That is crazy I knew my father was a little too caught up in his work but to go this far! It's unheard of!" Rage exclaims "The only one who would know for sure is Celestia."
"Spike?" Twilight asks the purple dragon
"Already done!" he says... a few minutes pass and soon spike coughs a note up and reads it to the rest of the group "My dearest Twilight as impossible as it might sound it is true. Maxim was from another world and Red Blaze he told me he left on Mobius as Rage the Hedgehog. This was one reason I named him a prince because you both have the same blood. It also explained why he was an Alicorn after arriving in Equestia. Best wishes, Celestia"
"I don't believe it." Rainbow Dash looks at the two "I think this just got 20% weirder for them..."
"Oh my gosh!" Pinky jumps up and down "That is amazing Twilight has a cousin!"
"I...don't know what to say about all of this either..." Rage says "I had no idea about any of this... Dex normally would tell me stuff like that about my father.."
