>White
-
>That's all you see
-
>You are the Princess of the Sun, Celestia
-
>And you feel angry and sad
-
>Angry at the fact those trio of villains manage to get the upper hand and blast you with harmful magic without you noticing
-
>Sad that your sister, Twilight, and her friends will probably miss you
-
>You lie on your side of your barrel and just stare into the vast nothingness
-
>"Just gonna stare at the wall all day?"
-
>You whip your head towards the male voice and find yourself looking up to a tall creature overshadowing you
-
>He or It wore black robes with intricate patterns of various animals chasing or eating each other sewn on it
-
>The face was obscured by its hood but two piercing eyes resembling smoldering coal look at you with intrigue
-
>But what caught your attention was the menacing scythe on its hand towering over you like a guillotine
-
>You stand quickly and your horn glows with magic
-
>Except you don't feel any magic coursing to your horn only to fizzle
-
>"No magic in the after life I'm afraid. Though I apologize for not introducing myself."
-
>Your face turns red at the embarrassing response and your posture relaxes
-
>But you still keep him at wing's length
-
>"You may have already know this Princess Celestia but I am Death. I come to those who have their lives snuffed away by nature, brother, or time."
-
>Huh you were expecting a mare to be the Death in this world
-
>"I represent ALL creatures in your world Princess, not just ponies."
-
>Oh buck did you just say that out loud
-
>"Ah- I mean- apologies Death. It's just-"
-
>His hooves? Split into five appendages wave at you
-
>"No need for that. Though you were the few to ask that question. Most just ask me if they are dead. Which they are obviously."
-
>You look down in sorrow at the repeated fact
-
>"I see so... Does this mean I get to go Elysium?"
-
>He turns his head away with a hum
-
>"Yeah but not yet, I feel something is still afoot and taking you now would just feel like a waste."
-
>You turn your head in confusion
-
>"It means that you might still some life in you and might be brought back."
-
>Your eyes widen in surprise by that.
-
>"H-How?"
-
>"Something, or someone is keeping you alive. And as long as that pull exists I still won't take you."
-
>Won't or Can't doesn't matter. You might be still be able to Luna again!
-
>A smile forms on your muzzle as you whinny with joy
-
>Though you stop the moment you feel a bemused look on you
-
>"Careful princess, just because it can doesn't mean it will happen. All we can do now is wait if they succeed or fail in their endeavor."
-
>You sit down in embarrassment
-
>You're usually like that with ponies you're used to like Luna or Raven
-
>The two of you wait in the white void, making small talk
-
>"So there's like multiple of you?"
-
>"Yes. Right now I'm also consoling an elderly griffin couple mending their relationship in their last moments."
-
>"I see."
-
>Death seems nice despite his looks
-
>"So you're job is to console poni- er folk in their last moments?"
-
>"Of course. Death is the end, but that doesn't mean people's legacy will. And I make sure they leave the living world with peace in their mind."
-
>You try to absorb the wisdom he speaks but then you come to a realization.
-
>"How come you don't do that me?"
-
>"Well, unlike some folk you seemed to have accepted death."
-
>He coughs in his hand
-
>"What I mean is, against all instinct you seem to have a deep understanding of yourself. You understood your mortality and have made peace with it so I don't need to console you about well... you know"
-
>You nod but pain your neck shoots out
-
>Your companion notices and kneels next to you
-
>"Yeah it's a bit weird you still feel some part of that in the after life. You ok?"
-
>"Yes, but having to look up to you while sitting and talking is a bit straining."
-
>You try to laugh it off but you kept stretching your neck to soothe the pain
-
>Death sits next to you, with his legs finally coming into view surprisingly revealing some flesh underneath
-
>Very. Very... Muscular flesh
-
>Thankfully (or not) his robes still hide his male essentials
-
>"Here. Sit on my lap while we wait. Can't have a customer go to Elysium with a neck brace can't we?"
-
>You cautiously do so. Trying to avoid embarrassing yourself by resting your head awkwardly, far away from his crotch
-
>"You know that won't help."
-
>Against your protests he brings your head closer, feeling his crotch and abdomen on the back of your head.
-
>Oh dear oh Faust they're so dense and nice
-
>You take in the view of him looking down at you, his hood still obscuring his face
-
>Also you feel his hoof spaghettis combing your hair
-
>"Umm Death?"
-
>"Apologies, but your hair and fur is surprisingly soft. Want me to stop?"
-
>You were about to say yes but you stop yourself
-
>Should you complain?
-
>Because currently you have your head in a tall gothic male creature's lap while he grooms you
-
>You've had worst experience
-
>"Continue."
-
>You swore felt a smile on his face as he continues to preen(?) your hair.
-
>They dance from your hair, to your wings, down your back, and up again to the back of your ears
-
>Uuuuuuuuuuunfffff
-
>Maybe this isn't so bad
-
>After a few minutes of bliss, you felt something pulling at you.
-
>"Well looks like you win this time."
-
>Wait what?
-
>Your body is starting to fade, fading into the living world.
-
>"We'll meet again one day. But for now. Live your life."
-
>"W-Wait I wanted to-!"
-
>Everything turns white
-
-
>You take a deep breath
-
>Wait no bad idea somethings in your throat
-
>You cough out the remaining ash and blood
-
>"Girls she's awake!"
-
>You find yourself in a destroyed castle hall
-
>Twilight and the rest of the Mane Six are gathered around you.
-
>"T-Twilight did you?"
-
-
>You take several deep breaths
-
>All of it
-
>You remember all of it
-
>A heavy set of hooves rapidly approach you
-
>You turn and find yourself being hugged by a tearful Luna
-
>"T-Tia I- We though had!"
-
>Her form crumbles and starts crying at your shoulder
-
>You mustered up the strength of your legs and wings and hug your dear sister.
