Chapters Lunacy, is a wonderful thing!
The day was as bright as any other day in Equestria, but for the Draconequus Discord, he felt more lonely then he ever did when Fluttershy was no longer his friend. Feeling as lonely as he had been at the moment, Discord decided to take a stroll through the Canterlot Castle garden, to try to brighten up his day. "What's wrong with me, why can't I shake this lonely feeling?" Discord asked himself, as he walked around the Canterlot Castle royal garden. His brief walk was interrupted though, when he bumped into a familiar statue. "Oh my.... It's been a long time, eh Lunacy?" Discord asked the statue.
The statue had a Hyena's head and neck, falcon's wings, a crow's arm, hand and talons, a tiger's arm and paw, with matching claws, a dragon torso, eyes, and tail, a trident shaped tail head, a pony's leg(which seemed not natural for Discord, no matter what), a really big deer leg, and a snaggle tooth like Discord's, though his was on the left side of his face. The statue appeared to be wearing what looked like a suit and tie. This, was Discord's twin brother, who was a part of a group of friends that he and Discord were once apart of.
"Look, I know that you probably heard about the recent events, but I wanted to change, I wanted friends!" Discord said to the statue, as a guard noticed him doing so. Discord had sensed that he was being watched, and the guard was still looking at him, thinking on what the Draconequus could be doing with the statue. Discord eventually looked over at the guard, who was no longer looking at the Draconequus. As a way to brighten up his day, Discord sent a butterfly over to the guard. When the butterfly landed on the guards muzzle, Discord snapped his fingers, and caused the butterfly to explode, which scared the guard, and made Discord laugh like crazy.
The statue stood silent. The statue had been shaped so that it was holding his suit, trying to look fancy for his pose. "Ok, I know I should've told you first, and not the guards that had discussed my reforming, but I didn't get here until a month ago, and do you know how long it's been since I had a chance to talk to you?" Discord said to the statue.
The statue stood there, silent to others, but for Discord it spoke to him.... in a way.
"Wait, I know how you can be freed!" Discord said. "I'll be right back!" Discord told the statue, then teleported from the garden, to the throne room.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Discord stood before Princess Celestia "Dear Princess Celestia, as my first act of goodness since I turned good, I request something from you!" Discord exclaimed, showing a form of delight with his arm movements.
"Yes Discord, please tell me what it is." Celestia said, showing some delight in Discord's decision to finally help with Equestria's peace.
"I request that you free my twin brother, Lunacy!" Discord said.
"NEVER!" Celestia shouted, startling every guard, and Discord, in the room as she slammed her hoof onto the floor.
"Why not? If I can be reformed, then so can he!" Discord said, now showing anger towards the sun goddess.
"Discord he killed ponies." Celestia began. "He raped unsuspecting mares, killed stallions, and even made a suit and tie for himself, out of ponies, after he skinned them alive! I'm sorry Discord, but your request is denied!" Celestia said.
"Now wait and listen here missy," Discord began "I was able to be reformed, and I'm the embodiment and spirit of chaos, dis-order! Though my brother may be the embodiment and spirit of insanity, he can be reformed as much as I could be!" Discord explained, now showing more signs of anger.
"Discord he believed that ponies killed your parents, which is entirely false, and due to his beliefs, he became the embodiment of insanity! My answer goes unchanged, so NO!" Celestia said. "Now, if I did permit this request to go on, who do you think could reform him?"
"Hmm...." Discord said, as he began to think, rubbing his chin with his right paw, thinking of everypony he knew that could help. "AHA! I know just who to go to!" Discord exclaimed with joy "I'll teach him how to laugh, he was always too serious at most points!"
"Discord, I will not allow him to be freed!" Celestia demanded towards the Draconequus.
"Celestia, what were you thinking," Discord began to ask "when you wanted me free? Did your feelings for me cloud your better judgment, did you miss me, or did you actually think that I could use my magic for good?"
"That doesn't matter Discord!" Celestia said "He committed crimes, punishable by death, and he was sparred!"
"Celestia, you still haven't answered my question." Discord said, trying to force the answer out of Celestia.
"You really want to know Discord?!" Celestia began to shout, as she walked towards the Draconequus "I wanted to free you, because I saw great potential, in somepony that had little to no friends, could actually try to earn some friends! I believed that you could use your magic for good, and that one day you'll realize that you can actually be something that your 'destiny' doesn't want you to be!"
"Thank you Celestia." Discord said, bowing to the princess "Now, put my brother, instead of me into that situation."
"Discord, he is different, he murdered, he raped, he wears pony skin as a suit!" Celestia shouted "If I agree, then everypony in Equestria would die from day one!" Celestia said, showing flames growing in her eyes.
"Look Celestia, what ever happened to '4 friends that'll never end'?" Discord brought up, knowing Celestia had remembered everything they had done as kids.
"Discord... that all ended when you went completely rogue!" Celestia shouted "It all ended, when you decided to make Equestria your playground!"
"Tia, baby girl, tell me...." discord began, stroking Celestia's hair "Do you know why Lunacy went completely insane?"
"I'm am fully aware Discord." Celestia said.
"Well then, why won't you let him have a second chance?" Discord asked. "Just give Lunacy a second chance. If I, a being of chaos who wanted to rule the world and make it my playground of chaos, can get second chance, than my brother sure can.
Discord brought up a some what good point. "Well then, who do you think could reform him then?" Celestia asked the happy Draconequus, who now had been giggling with glee that he could see his brother again.
"Why not Pinkie Pie?" Discord said "She knows how to make ponies smile and laugh!"
"Exactly, PONIES Discord, not Draconequi." Celestia said.
"But what if she could? If you did, my brother could help you with physical and magical chores around here like I am!" Discord explained. "Come on Tia, for me, like you used to do?"
Celestia sighed heavily. " I can't believe he's pulling those times back up. " Celestia thought for a moment. "No Discord," She began "Lunacy has committed one to many crimes. If he were to be freed, then he would commit them again! "
"Tia, remember, I got a second chance, and I pretty much ruined Equestria in every possible way." Discord began "All he ever did was harm the ponies, cause of his beliefs of what's happened in his life. So, will you give him a second chance?"
At this point, Celestia was more willing to be in a hospital more than free Discord's brother, but she caved in. "Fine Discord, but remember! If there is a single report, about any death in Ponyville, about a pony without skin, then he goes back into his stone prison. Understood?"
Discord bowed back down to the Sun Goddess "I understand Celestia." Discord said, as he got up. "Shall we go wake up Lunacy?" Discord said, using his magic to create an a cane, then threw his lion paw out as a gesture to Celestia for them to go to the garden.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The two left the throne room, and went to the statue. "Ok, here he is Discord, but we must wait, I need to contact my student and her friends to come here at once with the elements of harmony." Celestia said.
The two waited even longer than Discord wanted, until Twilight finally arrived with her friends, and the elements of harmony ready. The six mares stood before the princess and Draconequus, having the elements ready for what they had to do.
"Ok Princess, what did Discord do this time?" Twilight asked, thinking exactly what she said to Celestia.
"ME!?" Discord shouted. "For your information, I'm not the one the elements need to be used on, Twilight!" Discord said.
"Then who did they need to be used on?" Twilight asked.
Celestia sighed. "Twilight, there's something you need to know." Celestia began. "Long ago, when Discord was born, he did not come alone into the world. He had a twin brother, named Lunacy. Lunacy was, and still is, the embodiment of insanity. Long ago, when Discord had been turned to stone for the first time, Lunacy caught word of this, and went on a more psychotic rampage then he had already been doing. He began to kill stallions, and used their bodies as puppets, and he raped mares as well, and tortured many young foals. Not only was he insane, but he could become very serious as well, especially when angered. But, the worst thing he ever did... was skin ponies alive, and turned their skin into a suit and tie, the same suit you see on him. It's blood stained cloth-like fabric, is a reminder he kept as to who was responsible for his brother's imprisonment." Celestia explained to her student. and her student's friends.
"So, you want us to free him?" Twilight asked, scared for the answer her teacher would give her.
"Yes, I believe that your friend Pinkie Pie is the only one who can reform him." Celestia began. "Lunacy could never take jokes, nor could he smile at others' jokes when they were told. It only became worse when Discord was imprisoned in stone."
"But, he killed ponies...." Pinkie Pie began "I don't see why I should help him." Pinkie said, but didn't receive an answer. "Oh, yeah..." Pinkie had remembered the brief explanation that was just given. "Ok, I'll do it."
"Wait, Pinkie Darling," Rarity began "Are you sure about this? I mean, and with all due respect Princess Celestia, the Princess might not have the right idea, I mean, freeing a murderer?!"
"I'm with Rarity on this one Pinkie." Dash said.
"He did kill ponies Pinkie Pie, are ya sure you wanna free him Princess?" Applejack asked.
"Oh, I don't think he should be freed at all, to be fair here." Fluttershy said.
"Yes, if Discord believes that his brother can be reformed like he can," Celestia began "Then we should at least give him a chance. Please, free Lunacy."
The six mares did as requested, and immediately began to use the elements. The six friends began to float in the air, and the elements began to power. Twilight's eyes became pure white, and then the rainbow glowing beams of harmony from each of the elements hit the statue. The more that hit the statue, the more maddening laughter that was heard coming from the statue. The statue began to crack apart more and more, and the second Draconequi's tiger arm was free, then his crow arm, soon, everything had broken out of the stone. The second Draconequss burst free from HIS stone prison.
"Where.... where am I?" Lunacy asked to everything around him, confused at what was happening. "WHERE AM I?!" He now began to shout to everything, believing that everything was alive and talking to him.
"Canterlot Castle, the royal garden...." A familiar voice said to Lunacy. "Dearest brother."
Reforming time with Pinkie Pie.
"Brother, is that really you, or am I dead?" Lunacy asked Discord, oblivious to the ponies around him. Discord facepawed at what his brother said.
"Lunacy, we're spirits, we can't die, but we can be imprisoned, remember?" Discord asked. "By the way, how are your eyes feeling?"
"Let's see..." Lunacy said, as he turned his paw and hand into eyes, and began rubbing them against some statues "They're feeling pretty good!" He said to Discord, then began laughing like a psychopath. He then used his magic to put his paw and hand back in their respectable places, as well as his eyes. "So, what's this you told me about you no longer being evil?"
"Yes, I see Discord told you the news then." A familiar voice said to Lunacy.
"Oh, I didn't think that you'd still be alive princess. How long's it been then..... 1,000 years?" Lunacy asked, turning towards Celestia.
Celestia looked at Lunacy in disgust, mainly because he still had the necklace that she made for him when her, Lunacy, Discord, and Luna were all friends. "Precisely, but you've been freed only because your brother thinks that you can be reformed, and that you can use YOUR magic for good as well."
"Hiya, I'm Pinkie Pie, I'm so glad that I get to help you!" The pink mare said, as she jumped into Lunacy's arms.
"You must be joking, please tell me you're joking." Lunacy said, as he dropped the mare. "If so, it isn't a funny joke."
"Nope, it's true. You're going to be staying with Pinkie Pie until you're reformed." Discord said to his brother Lunacy, looking dead serious, which for Lunacy was a surprisingly new thing for Discord to do.
"You're serious!?" Lunacy exclaimed. "Huuhh... Oh well, might as well try. So, where to Pinks?" Lunacy asked, picking the pink mare up with his magic.
"To Ponyville!" Pinkie said, which made some anger grow into Lunacy, and which also made some more madness grow inside, and the desire for a new suit.
The group made it to Ponyville, but Lunacy stuck back for a moment. "Hang on, I'm gonna transform for a bit, until I find out where I'm staying at least." And with that said, Lunacy used his magic to transform into a pony.
He as pleased with the results. "Ah, much better for this scenery... though I'm not sure about this." Lunacy began, as he walked towards the pink mare he'd be staying with, for Celestia knows how long. "What'll happen if I make a slip, and murder some ponies brutally?"
Discord, using his twin telepathy, told his brother the answer "You'll be turned back to stone, to never have a second chance like I did. So, don't mess this up!" Discord said, giving his brother a slap on the head with his magic.
"Fine... stupid chaotic being." Lunacy said, as he walked with Pinkie Pie.
A few ponies that said Pinkie Pie were surprised to see her with some stallion they'd never seen before. At one point, Octavia came over to talk to the two as they were walking to the bakery in town. "Hey Pinkie Pie, who's this?" Octavia asked, curious to who the stallion was.
"This is Lunacy." Pinkie said, with Lunacy looking around for something less boring in the area.
"Oh I see, so. Are you two dating?" Octavia asked.
Pinkie blushed at this, and stammered her answer. "W-What? No n-n-n-n-no! He's going to be staying with me until.... well let's just say he needs some help, so I'm helping." Pinkie said. Octavia could never understand what Pinkie was implying. "Hey, we gotta go, later!" Pinkie said, as she pulled Lunacy with her to the bakery.
When the two entered the bakery, Lunacy smelled some of the most sweetening things he ever smelled. "Mmmmm.... what is that tasteful smell?" Lunacy asked.
"Oh, welcome to Sugar Cube Corner. That's the brownies baking that you're smelling. I'm Mr. Cake, what can I get you?" Mr. Cake said.
"Oh no Mr. Cake, this is my friend Lunacy, he needs some help with something, but I can't say what, so hes staying with me." Pinkie Pie explained to her boss.
"Pinkie Pie, are you sure about this? I mean we can't have another pony living in this house and bakery alone, it's just not profitable." Mr. Cake explained. "Uh, is that paint on your suit?" He then asked, noticing the red on Lunacy's dark suit.
"No, I think it's best you see my true form." Lunacy said, turning back into his Draconequus body. "Ah, much better!"
Seeing the infamous monster in his house, Mr. Cake screamed, alarming Mrs. Cake. "What is it dear?" Mrs. Cake asked, but noticed Lunacy. Mrs. Cake screamed as well, frightening herself and her husband even more. "P-Pinkie get away from him!" Mrs. Cake said "He'll rape you then take your skin as a prize!"
"No, I'm trying to reform him, like how my friend Fluttershy did with Discord, his brother!" Pinkie said, but realized that what she just said made the situation worse.
"That's it!" Lunacy shouted, and stopped time. Lunacy then poked each of the Cakes, which allowed them to move in the frozen time. "Look, I'm going to try to be reformed, but if you keep treating me like the insane monster i know I am, this ain't gonna work Cakes. So, I won't kill anypony, or anything, if I can live in the upstairs room with the pink mare over there." Lunacy said.
Realizing they had no other choice, the Cakes agreed. Lunacy unfroze time, and turned to Pinkie Pie. "So Pinkie Pie, I'm roomin' with you!" He said to his new roommate. The two went upstairs, and entered the room that Lunacy would be sleeping in. "Wow, what a small space of a room." Lunacy said.
"Come on, it'll be alright!" Pinkie said, as she hugged the tall Draconequus. "Hey, you wanna see a movie!?" Pinkie asked. Lunacy had nothing else to do, so he went to the movie that Pinkie had suggested. Lunacy transformed back into the pony form he chose to be in. He didn't deem it necessary to be his normal self out in public, everypony would just run from him anyways.
When they got into the theater, the movie started. "So, what's this about again?" Lunacy asked, who was met with several 'shhh's.
"It's about this couple that are stranded on this island in the middle of nowhere!" Pinkie said, who was also met with several 'shhh's.
As the movie went on, Lunacy became interested in it. "Maybe these ponies aren't as bad as I thought... maybe, I still want more evidence before I decide to turn good. " Lunacy thought, thinking the movie was actually real. "Hey, Pinkie, mind if I have some, oh what is it called, 'popcorn'?" Lunacy asked. Pinkie agreed to let him take some of her popcorn, and when he reached into the bucket, he felt his hoof touch something soft, and warm as well. "Is this what 'popcorn' feels like? " He thought to himself. When he looked down, he realized he was holding on to Pinkie's hoof, and not some of the actual food he heard about.
Lunacy quickly took his hoof back, and started to blush a bit. "Could I be...? No, no I won't, I refuse to! Ponies imprisoned my brother, twice! And she helped the second time, I still want to avenge Discord, he did nothing wrong! But.... why am i feeling love for this mare? She's like any other mare... " Lunacy thought to himself, before the theater lights blasted on, blinding him.
As the two walked out, Lunacy was once more blinded, but by the sun this time. "Oh man..." Lunacy said, rubbing his eyes "That was a good 'movie'?" He asked himself, trying to remember the name of this new thing he'd seen for the first time.
"Yeah, it's the first time I saw it too!" Pinkie said "I heard about it on T.V. and thought 'I should go see this one day.' so I chose today, so I could see it with you!" The pink mare said. "Hey, you wanna go get some ice cream now?" Pinkie asked.
"Ice cream?" Lunacy asked. He was very familiar with this, because in the past, his favorite thing to eat was the frozen dairy treat, and he often froze ponies in the treat as well. "Of course! Let's go, lead the way!" Lunacy said, as he followed the pink mare.
When the two got to the ice cream shop, they found Derpy and her stallionfriend Doctor Whooves. "Hey Derpy, hey Doctor!" Pinkie said.
"Hey Pinkie Pie! Who's this?" Derpy said, looking confused as usual thanks to her lazy eye.
"The name's Lunacy, but please, call me Insane!" Lunacy said, laughing at his own joke, as Doctor Whooves laughed as well.
The four ponies talked, and after some time Pinkie and Lunacy walked inside the shop. "Hey Scoops!" Pinkie said to the mare behind the counter.
"Oh, hello Pinkie, what'll it be today?" The mare asked.
"Hmm, the usual. How about you Lunacy?" Pinkie said aloud.
"Hmm, a three scoop cone, with mint chocolate chip, chocolate, and vanilla please!" Lunacy said.
In no time, the mare behind the counter got their order ready, and the two went outside to sit down in the sun.
"So, Lunacy, tell me 'bout yourself! When were you born?" Pinkie Pie asked.
"Oh, well it's been a long time since somepony actually tried to get to know me... Oh yeah I was born over 2,000 years ago, on the same day as Discord." Lunacy said.
Pinkie Pie began to ask plenty of questions, all of which Lunacy had an answer to. Pinkie was surprised at every answer Lunacy gave to her. "Hmm, ok here's one.... Whadda ya call a pony, with no legs horn or wings, floating in the ocean?"
"I don't know Pinkie, what do you call a pony, with no legs horn or wings, floating in the ocean?" Lunacy asked.
"Bobber!" The Pink mare shouted, cause Lunacy to shoot a bit of the milkshake he now had out of his nose. "Wow, I didn't think it was that funny!" Pinkie said.
"You know, that's the first joke I heard in over a thousand years, and it's also the first joke from somepony else that I laughed at!" Lunacy explained. Lunacy began to feel his heart speak more and more to him with a feeling he had remembered from earlier, and it's loud beating on the inside. "Hmm... i was wrong, maybe I am falling for her. But should I? What if I do ask her out, and she breaks my heart like.... * she** did?*" Lunacy asked himself in his thoughts.
Lunacy and Pinkie Pie had finished their time at the ice cream parlor, and they decided to head home. Before they left Pinkie Pie paid the bill, as Lunacy had no money, and thanked Scoops for letting them stay a bit later than closing time had aloud them to stay. Lunacy and Pinkie Pie walked home, and had to silently head upstairs to their room, as the Cakes and their kids were already asleep.
When the two entered their room, Pinkie silently crawled into bed. Lunacy, after turning back into his natural form. didn't want to be a bother, and created a couch big enough to hold up his body, and decided to sleep on that. Before he went to bed, he heard pinkie reading, or writing, or both into a small book. He could barely make out of what she was saying, but it sounded like she was saying "Dear diary... " but that was as much as he could make out, before falling into a deep slumber.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lunacy woke up, and to his surprise, he was in the middle of a field, the time of day was apparently sunset, even though the sun stood still. "Hmm, must be dreaming again. But can I control the dreamscape now?" Lunacy said to himself, trying to change the landscape around him into Ponyville, but nothing worked. "Huh, should've expected as much." He said, and began to wander around the world before him.
Lunacy eventually was tired of walking in the never ending fields, and had sat down on a rock that had appeared near him. Lunacy recognized this landscape as his loneliness, which was created after he had felt loneliness that was given to him. He decided to sit for a little while longer before traveling again, but before he left, Pinkie Pie bounced onto the rock next to him. "Oh, P-Pinkie. Hey... Can I tell you something?" Lunacy said to the pink mare next to him.
Pinkie Pie simply nodded her head, and wore a curious look on her face. "Pinkie Pie, in the short time we've known each other.... I've grown to be in love with you." Lunacy said, wearing a small smile on his face. The pink mare sat there silently, then in a familiar voice said to Lunacy "I'm sorry Lunacy, but you know I do not love you."
"N-No.... why are you here!?" Lunacy asked. The pink mare sat silent. "ANSWER ME LUNA !" Lunacy shouted to the pink mare, who transformed into the princess of the night.
"I am here to talk to you about some important things, Lunacy." Luna informed the Draconequus "I would like to know. Are you going to take your reforming seriously, or are you going to treat it like it doesn't matter?"
"HA!" Lunacy said "That's rich Lulu. Me, serious?" The lunatic said, and began to burst into laughter. When he finally stopped laughing, he finally asked the question that he wanted to ask Luna, for a long time. "Oh, but let's be real here. Why do you care? Why do you care about my reforming, when you made me the monster I've set out to be!?"
"Because if Discord could be reformed, then you..." Luna began "possibly. But I do not trust that, you're too insane to be reformed. Unless.... the pink mare gets to you." Luna said, smiling, knowing she was getting to Lunacy's heart even deeper than Lunacy wanted her to once more.
This began to anger Lunacy. He didn't want an ex-loved one of his to be talking about the mare he now loved. "GET OUT OF HERE!" Lunacy shouted, then flew into the sky to escape the princess of the night. As he flew higher and higher, tears began to form in his eyes. "How dare she come into my dreams, disguised as the mare i now love! " Lunacy thought to himself, and when he realized what he just thought, and what he though he admitted to Pinkie Pie, he stopped dead cold, and floated in the air. "I'm in love with Pinkie Pie....." Lunacy said.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lunacy woke up, and remembered everything that happened in his dream. "Sweet Celestia.... Wait, what time is it? Lunacy asked, then looked out of the bedroom window. "Huh.... mid-day. I thought Pinkie would've tried to have waken me up before the sun was behind some clouds..." Lunacy said to himself.
Lunacy got off of the couch, and went to the upstairs bath room, and looked immensely into the mirror. "I can't believe it.... I actually AM in love with somepony who isn't immortal like me and Discord." Lunacy said, remembering about his brother. "What would Discord say about this ?" Lunacy thought.
"Wow.... you actually love her, and yet you know nothing about her !" Discord told Lunacy. "You know, I love this twin telepathy that we share !"
"Shut up brother, she won't think the same thing about me!" Lunacy said "No mare ever has. You know how fragile a lunatic's heart is. Call a lunatic a monster, and they'll show you a monster!" Lunacy said, tearing the sink off the ground, and ripping the mirror off of the wall.
Lunacy, in a fit of rage mixed with sadness, went back to the room he was staying in, and locked himself in for the rest of the day. "Oh Luna, you don't know the pain you forced onto me..... So, I showed you the pain, every last pinch of pain. A monster, is what i am. You said you'd never enter a monster's dreams, yet you enter mine. Why?" Lunacy said to himself, lying on his couch, trying to force himself not to cry.
Back at Canterlot Castle, Discord had begun to stir his afternoon coffee in the kitchen, when he received a letter from Lunacy via magic. "Huh? Oh, a letter from my brother. How wonderful!" Discord said sarcastically. Discord proceeded to open the letter, and began to read what was inside.
"Discord,
STOP USING THE 'TWIN TELEPATHY' TRICK THAT YOU'VE BEEN USING!
Lunacy."
"Twin telepathy?" Discord asked himself. "Oh no.... better tell Celestia on what's happening." Discord said, as he left the kitchen to head for the throne room. When Discord arrived, he saw the princess sitting upon her throne. "Uhh... Tia, there's something wrong with Lunacy." discord began.
"Discord, there's plenty of things wrong with your brother." Celestia stated, proving the obvious.
"No, it's about his mental state of mind!" Discord said "He's going insane again! Didn't you notice how sane, how normal he was once he was freed?" Discord asked.
"What does that have to do with his sanity Discord!?" Celestia asked, demanding a better explanation.
"Well," Discord began "my guess is that his insanity had died out, very slowly, when he was turned to stone. But when he came out of the statue, it began to grow some more, making him have more vivid dreams, more bloodlust, and possibly more desires to find somepony to except him for who he is, somepony to love him. But, if he does get reformed, then he won't be extremely insane, but just a bit insane, but if anypony breaks his personal space too much.... then he'll snap like a twig, and go on a rampage once more." Discord explained, showing a serious look upon his face.
"Discord, you better explain more on what's happening to him!" Celestia demanded, showing an angry look on her face.
"Well, he believes that I'm using some form of 'twin telepathy on him, he's thinking I'm telling him some things that I'm really not telling him at all. I can't use telepathy Celestia, he's going insane, and somepony's probably digging into his heart." Discord said, as another letter popped next to him. Discord picked up the letter, and read it to himself. "Oh yeah, he also wants Luna to stay out of his dreams. Some thing about not wanting her to make him angrier than he's ever been again."
"Discord, if he snaps like you said he could, then he'll go back into the statue, and will NEVER be given a second chance again. Understood?" Celestia stated, looking Discord dead in his eyes.
"I understand Celestia." Discord said, as he snapped his fingers to teleport back into his room with his coffee. When Discord appeared into his room, he sat on his bed. "Oh man... Lunacy, you'd better not screw this up for me. You're the only Draconequus, besides me, left in this world, my only family member left." Discord said, as he drank his coffee.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Back in Ponyville, the Cakes and Pinkie tried to get Lunacy out of his room. "Come on, you can't stay in there all day Lunacy!" Mrs. Cake said to the door. "Yeah, what happened to being reformed?" Mr. Cake asked the Draconequus, who sounded like he was sobbing in the room.
"LEAVE ME ALONE!" Lunacy shouted "NO PONY UNDERSTANDS, THEY'LL NEVER UNDERSTAND! ONLY MY BROTHER UNDERSTANDS!"
"Understands what?" Pinkie asked, wearing a worried look on her face.
The door opened, revealing the tall sleek spirit of insanity "He only understands how it feels to have been treated like a beast!" Lunacy said "No pony's ever seen me for the love I wanted to give! Not even the one I loved the most!" Lunacy said "No even Princess Luna, somepony who I KNOW who's been dejected, hadn't seen me for the love I had for her! She treated me like virtually everypony else, except for Discord and Celestia, and I finally snapped that day. I killed ponies in secrecy, making small kills here and there, but when I learned that my only two friends imprisoned my brother, I went far off the cliff of insanity, and my killings became bigger, and that's when I began to rape mares, kill stallions to make them my zombie puppets, and torture foals, only later did I turn a bunch of ponies' skin into this suit." Lunacy explained "I want that all gone, but if Discord would shut up with that blasted telepathy of his, maybe I could return to normal."
"That's horrible! Come on, moping around won't help you." Pinkie said, pulling the Draconequus out of the room. "Come on, we're going to the park! I'm gonna show you a fun time with some of my friends!" Lunacy saw no other way out of it of the visit, and transformed into his pony form.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The two ponies arrived at the local park, and Pinkie saw Rainbow Dash, Twilight, Applejack, and Rarity all having a picnic nearby "Hey guys! I brought Lunacy here to cheer him up, can you guys help?" Pinkie asked.
"Of course Pinkie, come on girls." Twilight said, as the other four mares walked over to the disguised Draconequus. "Hey Lunacy, how are ya?" Twilight asked.
"Oh, look a talking owl!" Lunacy said, as his mind made him see Twilight as a giant lavender owl, a sign that should've made him realize that he was going insane a bit, he had time though, he was crazy but not insane yet. "I'm not doing well, I feel sick to the bone with my emotions."
Rarity stepped into the conversation "Oh, well I could make you a new suit to make you feel better. OH! I've got my tape measure with me, be right back!" Rarity said to Lunacy, as she went to her bag to get her tape measure, and came back and began to measure Lunacy.
"No, stop measuring me giant marshmallow!" Lunacy shouted "I said back giant sweet treat of goo!"
Applejack stepped in at this point "Here sugar cube, eat this!" Applejack said, as she shoved an apple slice cupcake into Lunacy's mouth.
Lunacy was about to spit out the disgusting treat that was forced into his mouth by the orange earth pony mare, but Rainbow Dash flew into Lunacy's face and said "You haven't killed anypony, have you? Are you here to kill us!?"
Lunacy couldn't handle his space being breached by the mares around him, and he snapped. He spat out the cupcake, grabbed Dash and threw her onto the ground, pushed Rarity away from him, and then roared like a tiger, and ran off somewhere. "Oh no..." Pinkie said "Maybe you guys shouldn't have invaded his personal space like that."
Twilight looked over at Pinkie "Pinkie, you gotta go catch him before he does anything that'll make the Princess upset! Go fin him, now!" Twilight shouted to Pinkie. Pinkie nodded, and went to go look for Lunacy. Where ever he was, Pinkie hoped he didn't kill anypony yet, or at all.
Pinkie pie searched high and low through out Ponyville looking for Lunacy, hoping that he hadn't done anything to jeopardize his reforming, such as kill anypony. Pinkie had begun to search near the edges of the town, she heard a scream coming from near Sweet Apple acres.
Pinkie pie ran to where she heard the scream, hoping Lunacy had absolutely nothing to do with it. When she arrived, she saw a shaking Carrot Top, whimpering and shedding tears. "Carrot Top, you ok?!" Pinkie asked, feeling that Lunacy might have done something to her.
"P-Pinkie? Oh thank Celestia!" Carrot Top began "This.. this stallion had ran into me, and when I helped him up... H-He gave me this look and he- he just-....." Carrot Top began, remembering what happened "He turned into this monster, and he.... He raped me!" She screamed, still shivering at what she remembered.
"Which way did he go?" Pinkie asked, thinking about telling off Lunacy for doing what he did.
"He went to Sweet Apple acres," Carrot Top said "he might be heading there for somepony else, I don't know!"
With that information, Pinkie left Carrot Top and ran to the nearby apple orchard. When Pinkie arrived, she saw Lunacy sitting on top of the Apple family's barn, and climbed up top to sit with him. When Pinkie got on top of the barn, she saw that Lunacy was looking at the moon, like ther was something missing from it. "Lunacy, why did you rape Carrot Top!?" Pinkie asked.
Lunacy sat there for a minute, still looking at the moon with his dragon eyes, then said "...To take my anger out towards one mare on someone besides the ones I love, and their friends. That's always why I've done the things I've done, with a sprinkle of my insanity fueling it even more, I lost control. Can I tell you something?"
"Sure, I guess..." Pinkie said, as she went to sit next to Lunacy.
"I-... I've become accustomed to your company, Pinks, and during the time..." Lunacy began "I've gained some love FOR you, but I didn't want to tell you."
"Why?" Pinkie asked.
"Well, I'm an insane monster who has a bloodlust like no other," Lunacy began "And mares I loved always didn't love me back, especially......HER !"
"Who's that Lunacy?" Pinkie asked, wanting to uncover more of the truth so that she could reform Lunacy even faster than needed.
"Princess Luna, remember?" Lunacy asked. "She was the one I loved the most, the one I hoped could see me different, the one mare who I thought would know my pain of being dejected by many..... But she hadn't... The day I confessed my love for her, and asked her out, she said," Lunacy said, as he used his magic to change his voice to Luna's "I don't date monsters, nor do I love them. You are a form of monster, I'm sorry Lunacy. " Lunacy mimicked, then changed his voice to normal. "So there, that's why everything I did, was to prove I'm a monster. Being born insane made my actions even worse. My insanity gave me new ideas for torture, new ideas for everything, but with a catch! I will see things different for what they are, as in physical description wise, and that I will always be insane, with no pony to understand."
Pinkie hugged Lunacy "I'm sorry that happened to you, but I'll help you Lunacy, I want to help you!"
Lunacy began to blush, and he felt his heart get warmer "It's.....It's happening again. " he thought to himself, then returned the hug. Pinkie pie and Lunacy never left the barn roof that night, and simply fell asleep right on top of it.
