The Elements of Chaos Book II Return of Chaos Daddy Discord

Chocolate Pie was nervous. "Is the room good enough? Is the light too bright? Do you need another blanket?" This was the first time Moonlight was staying with her. She really wanted everything to be perfect. Moonlight walked around and said, "I appreciate your concern, but I'm fine. And to answer your questions, the room is fine, the light is not to bright, and actually...I could use another blanket." Chocolate zipped out of the room and returned with a fluffy, lavender blanket. Meanwhile the girls were busy watching. "Next Moonlight wants to stay with one of us, remind me the last pony she goes to is Chocolate." Discorded Swirls said. "Indeed, but she at least is taking this job seriously." Star Dim replied. "A little too seriously if you ask me." Crazed Candy added. Now Chocolate was asking all different questions about the blanket, "Is the blanket too small? Is it to big? Is it too purple? Would you prefer...." Moonlight gently put a hoof over her mouth. "Shhh. Chocolate everything is fine. Can we try to enjoy the evening without any more difficulties?" Chocolate Pie stared at her blankly. "Okie Dokie Lokie! Let's have some fun!" Cotton Feathers said, "I think we should all go out and cause trouble. All this peace and harmony makes me sick." Everypony except Moonlight nodded in agreement. Star Dim noticed and said, "Moonlight you are coming with us. And you can't hide behind Discord this time." Moonlight looked nervous and turned a pale color. "I....can't.....I..." Moonlight tried to speak but was interrupted. "No excuses. Discord is not here. You can't hide behind him forever." Moonlight started getting angry and said in a louder voice, "Yes! He is not here. And it's because of that I can't. You just don't understand do you?"

Moonlight was getting mad. Star Dim said in a stern voice, "What do we not understand?" Moonlight was so twisted in her anger and fear she could'nt controll herself and almost began to yell. "That he made it safe! After you brought me back when I ran off, I did not want to leave him again. Or you. I never left because I was afraid if I left for any reason. I might get angry again and hurt you. He made it safe for me. The world was still in chaos! Luna and Celestia were not after him! But now the world is in harmony, Discord has been turned to stone and like you said, I have nopony to hide behind anymore. I can't feel safe anymore. Discord told me to stay hidden, so Luna and Celestia would not find me. I can't leave. Especially when I feel so scared." Cotton Feathers put a wing around her. "But you said you would free him eventually. And you will..." Moonlight got angry again. "You do not know that! I could try one hundred times to free him and I could fail all one hundred times! What if I can't ever really see him again?" Discorded Swirls saw Cotton Feathers looking like she was going to cry. She flew in front of her and said, "Hey! Leave her alone!" Moonlight smirked and said in a scary tone, "Oh really? And who is going to make me do that?" Discorded looked a little scared and began to shiver. "Well.....I....um...." Crazed Candy walked up to her and said, "Now stop! Is that any way to treat somepony?" Moonlight quickly turned to her and said, "I don't know Crazed. IS that how you are supposed to treat your FRIENDS?" After that Star decided she had enough. "Moonlight Chaos! Calm down! Look what you are doing to them!" She pointed towards the three ponies holding each other and shaking with fear. Chocolate Pie jumped over and said, "What has gotten into you?" Moonlight looked at Chocolate and headed towards her. "What are you talking about Chocolate? I thought we were friends?" Chocolate was feeling a little scared but stood her ground and said, "We are, but I do NOT like seeing you act like a big meanie!" Moonlight pretended to look hurt and said, "A big meanie huh? Would a big meanie do....THIS?" She aimed her horn at Cotton, Discorded, and Crazed Candy and began absorbing their colors. Switching them with grey and white colors. Then she took away Discorded and Cottons wings! Chocolate looked at them and said, "What did you do to them?" Moonlight laughed and said, "Simple, I took away all of their kindness and compassion for you and took away Discorded Swirls and Cotton Feathers wings. Silly me!" Chocolate's mane began growing straight and tears were forming. "What have we done to you?" She began crying and her color began to fade as well. Moonlight smirked. Then she heard Star Dim say, "Enough Moonlight! Stop this now!" Moonlight spun around and faced her. "Four down, and one to go." She thought to herself. Star Dim continued, "Moonlight darling, you need to stop!" Moonlight said, "Why should I? Aren't we having so much fun? Or is this not fun enough for you?" Star Dim began sounding less angry and more worried. "Moonlight please....you are turning into a monster!" Moonlight yelled. "I have always been a monster! Everypony could see that! Why couldn't you? How pathetic are you?" Star Dim was almost ready to cry her colors began to fade just as the grey colors reached her face she said, "What will happen when Discord sees what you have become?" Moonlight smirked as Star Dim collapsed. Then Moonlight lost her color replacing them with grey color. She became scared and flew out the window. As she did her friends got their color back. When everypony opened their eyes Discorded Swirls said, "What happened? Where's Moonlight?"
