The Element's of Chaos
The Element of Corruption Discorded Swirls
Previous ChapterNext Chapter"So, do you get it?" Chocolate Pie said. She and Star Dim had just finished telling Discorded Swirls about everything. Who they were and how they were together, why Moonlight was so shy, what the Elements of Chaos were, and who Discord was. The grey pegasus began laughing and rolling all over the floor. "You guys are so funny! This is the most hilarious story I have ever heard!" Chocolate Pie began giggling and joined her and was kicking and laughing. Star said, "You two are acting ridiculous. I am going to check on Moonlight. Oh and Chocolate darling, try not to hurt yourself." Chocolate nodded and continued laughing. When Star Dim shut the door she headed downstairs. When she came down she saw Moonlight sleeping while Discord was next to her. Star Dim walked over and said, "Is she okay?" Discord turned to her and said, "She is fine. A little exhausted that's all." Star Dim said, "It must be incredible having great power like that. Chocolate is busy laughing with Discorded Swirls the pegasus we just met." Discord looked at her and said, "Is that so? Moonlight told me about that. Who is she?" Star slowly began to explain and when she finished. She said, "Should we test her?" Discord considered it and said, "Why not? If she fails, do whatever you want with her. I think I will stay here." Star Dim nodded and went back upstairs into Moonlights bedroom where Discorded Swirls and Chocolate Pie were still laughing. She stepped up to Discorded Swirls and said, "Let's go were going to give you a little test." Chocolate giggled and said, "Come on Swirly! It will be fun." Discorded Swirls shrugged and walked with Star and Chocolate. When they got downstairs and were close to the door Discorded Swirls looked at Discord and said, "Wow."
"Who was that?" Discorded asked. Star Dim said, "That was Discord darling." Chocolate said, "Yeah! We told you we knew the Spirit and King of Chaos. But you did not believe us." Discorded replied, "So does that mean Moonlight is like, the Queen of Chaos." Chocolate and Star looked at each other and then Star said, "You could say that. Her magic is like his. It is chaotic and extremely powerful. So I guess she is." They all stopped and saw a group of ponies Discorded said, "What are we doing?" Chocolate said, "We are here to have fun!" Discorded said, "What do you mean." Star Dim pointed at a white pegasus. She used her magic to create a black cloud around her. Then Chocolate made a bunch of toys and pranking supplies and walked into the cloud and began throwing everything she could at the pegasus. When she came out she said, "Oh wait until you see her! Some my best work." When the cloud cleared they could all see the pegasus, her white coat was covered in patches of paint, her mane and tail were soaking wet, balloons were tied to her wings, and she had scribbles drawn all over her face. They all laughed. Discorded said, "I did not think you would be a prankster Chocolate Pie. And that was the funniest one yet!" Star Dim said, "Well darling what can you do?" Discorded said, "Please. I am awesome, this will be a piece of cake!" Chocolate quickly spoke up, "Piece of cake! I have tons of cake." From out of nowhere she pulled out a small chocolate cake. She shoved it in her mouth and said, "Mmmm, yummy!" Star Dim looked at Discorded and shrugged. Then Discorded flew up to the sky. She saw two stallions walking down the road. She dashed in front of them and began flying in a circle creating a swirly spiral. After a while the two stallions looked like they were both hypnotized. Then the stallions began losing their color and both began teasing other ponies. When Discorded came back they both asked her what she did. "I used my flying trick to corrupt them and turn them into their opposite selves. I may not have unicorn magic, but my flying can create different patterns to do different things." Chocolate Pie said, "Trust me this is only the beginning of an awesome day!"
All day the girls watched Discorded Swirls corrupt ponies and use her flying skills to trick them. Eventually they all went to say goodbye to Moonlight. Except Chocolate Pie she said she was going to stay and keep her company. While they were walking Chocolate said, "I think you should meet Cotton Feathers. She is a friend of ours. I think you would really like her." Discorded stopped and said, "Cotton Feathers, I know her! We both went to flight school as fillies." Star Dim said, "Perfect now we all know each other. You know you have very good flying skills." Discorded nodded, "Of course! I am awesome!" Now that she thought about it, she was good at flying, really good. And her ability to trick and corrupt other ponies was special. The more she thought about it, the more she began to believe it. Suddenly she started changing, she grew slightly taller, her mane grew longer, and she received a necklace with her cutie mark on it. Star Dim said, "Well darling looks like you passed the test. The Element of Corruption. It suits you."
When they all got back, they found that Moonlight had woken up. She had been talking with Discord all day. Discorded Swirls said goodbye and left. While Chocolate played outside Star Dim said, "She passed. The Element of Corruption and I must say she discovered her element quite quickly." Moonlights eyes widened, more nightmares. They were going to come and she would not be able to keep them from coming. Discord saw look on Moonlights face and said, "Go upstairs, we will talk in a minute." Moonlight slowly nodded and walked upstairs, they could both hear Moonlight crying softly. Discord said, "One more to go. Thank you. I will try to calm her down, her power has been constantly growing stronger." Star Dim nodded as she left she told Chocolate to come with her. Chocolate began to whine and said, "Why? I want to stay with Moonlight!" Star Dim replied calmly, "Not tonight darling. Moonlight needs Discord right now. Chocolate looked sad but nodded and walked home.
Discord could hear Moonlight crying, but this time she sounded almost angry. He walked into her room. As soon as Moonlight saw him she stopped crying. "Nightmares, they are going to come. I can not stop them." Discord laid down on the bed and said, "You have been having nightmares about me haven't you? Tell me." Moonlight looked away for a while, but then said quietly, "You were turned to stone." Discord moved closer to her and said, "What? I need you to speak up." Moonlight felt tears drip down her face she said in a louder voice, "You were turned to stone. Two alicorns came and turned you into stone. I could not stop them, I was left alone. The world was in harmony and nopony seemed to care about me or you. My friends left me. I destroyed everything and hurt you." Discord looked shocked. Then he said, "Maybe this will help." He took his lion paw and touched Moonlights horn. Moonlight began to feel stronger and more powerful. Moonlight looked nervous and said, "What happened?" Discord said, "I gave you some of my power, strength, and feelings." Moonlight began to relax and said, "Thank you." Discord watched her slowly lay down. He started to stroke her mane to calm her. While Moonlight closed her eyes she could have sworn she heard music. It was very soft and quiet but it was the most amazing sound she ever heard. When both her eyes were closed Discord snapped his fingers. He hoped this would help.
