The Elements of Chaos Book III Chaos and Love

Moonlight felt cold. "No, not again. She can't be back. She's with Nightmare Moon." She opened her eyes to find a familiar sight. Equestria was destroyed, but this time it looked much worse. She could hardly see anything, most of the buildings were destroyed, darkness lurked everywhere. This did not scare Moonlight but the thought of what was going to come made her shiver. Moonlight remembered she had defeated Dark Chaos before but.......just how strong was she now? Moonlight began flying around searching for somepony. Then she came to her old house. It looked even bigger then the one in her older nightmares. She flew up to the window. She saw Dark Chaos herself. Along with her was Discord and........the other Moonlight from her older nightmares. Why had Dark Chaos not taken that Moonlight? She did not have time to think about it, for suddenly she felt herself being grabbed by Dark Chaos. Her magic pulled Moonlight right up to her face. "Hello Moonlight did you miss me?"

Discord felt cold. Where am I? He slowly opened his eyes. He saw Moonlight in front of him. She looked scared. "Moonlight, what's wrong?" He asked. She pointed behind him. He turned around to see a dark pony. She had a black coat with blue armor on, and red glowing eyes. He remembered who she was now. It was Dark Chaos, the pony Moonlight had seen in her nightmares before they were married. "What are you doing here Dark Chaos?" He growled at the dark pony. Dark Chaos looked hurt. "Why Discord! Is that anyway to talk to a friend?" Discord narrowed his eyes. "Stay away from her." Dark Chaos sighed. "Very well, but first......" She flew over to Moonlight and cast a spell on her. Causing all her colors to be drained. Moonlight opened her eyes. She looked at Discord then her eyes shrank. Discord flew over to her but she backed away. "Moonlight come here. Please...." Moonlight backed up even further. "Who are you? Leave me alone!" Discord was shocked. She did not remember who he was anymore. He touched her horn hoping her color and memory would come back, but nothing happened. Moonlight flinched. "Leave me alone!" Discord tried to touch her but she wouldn't stay close enough. "Moonlight, please listen to me....." Moonlight looked terrified. "Stay away from me! Leave me alone!" Discord felt hurt. "Why?" He asked weakly. Moonlights eyes had tears in them. "Because your scary." She said. Discord froze. She thought he was terrifying. She was afraid of him, she did not remember who he was. Discord grew very angry. He turned to Dark Chaos. "Change her back NOW!" He yelled. Dark Chaos was shocked. She had never seen him so angry and scared before. She gave him a sly gin. "Sorry, but I said I would stay away from her. Don't you remember?" Discord wanted to rip Dark Chaos to shreds. He grabbed her by the neck and pulled her to his face. "CHANGE HER BACK!" Dark Chaos laughed. "Your hilarious! No. But I will do this....." Discord's eyes widened as Dark Chaos slipped out of his grasp and aimed her horn at him. She cast a spell draining all his magic. Discord felt weak and dropped. "Why did you do that?" Dark Chaos smiled. "So you would not fight back long enought to see this...." Dark Chaos aimed her horn at Moonlight causing her magic to vanish as well. She screamed and then dropped. Then Dark Chaos returned Discord's magic. He got up and ran over to her. She felt very cold and almost lifeless. He turned to Dark Chaos. He wanted to use all of his magic and destroy her. "WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?" Dark Chaos laughed. "Calm down! That's not the real Moonlight!" Discord grabbed Dark Chaos again. "Where is she? WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO HER!" Dark Chaos was trying to keep herself from laughing. "Don't worry she's fine for now. I needed to keep you busy long enough to weaken her." Discord asked again. "Where......is......she......?"  Dark Chaos sighed. Her horn began to glow and an image of Moonlight was in front of his face. Moonlight was being surrounded by ponies. And this time her magic was really being drained. Discord threw Dark Chaos across the ground. And jumped through the image. "Moonlight No!"

Moonlight was being pushed down by hundreds of ponies. Every time she got up another would shove her down and Dark Chaos would drain more of her magic. Dark Chaos walked towards her. "Any last requests before I completely drain you of your power?" Moonlight tried hard to get the words out. "Where.......is my.......Discord?" Suddenly she saw Discord jumping through a magic hole in the wall. "He's right here!" Dark Chaos looked at him. "Come any closer to her and she's done for. Face it Discord, she's mine. All her magic is mine, your out outnumbered. Even your magic is not strong enough to take me and my guards!" Then everyone heard a small high pitched voice. "Not unless he has help!" Then three young ponies rushed in. It was Screwball, Stellaluna, and Disharmony. They all rushed to their fathers side. Discord looked at them. "How did you three get here?" Disharmony laughed. "We were bored, and you and Mom were asleep." Screwball continued. "And you both looked a little scared, so we kinda....." Stellaluna finished. "Used our magic to help." Discord pointed at Dark Chaos. "That one is mine, think you three trouble makers can handle them?" The three looked at all the guards. "No problem." Disharmony said. They all rushed in and used their magic to trap all the guards. Discord and Dark Chaos stood there watching them. When the three finished Dark Chaos looked a little nervous. Discord turned back to her. "Are you going to fix this? Or are you going to have to deal with me and these three?" Screwball, Disharmony, and Stellaluna looked a little angry and had their magic ready. Dark Chaos groaned. "You win this round Discord. But I will be back, and you and your family will pay for this!" Dark Chaos cast a spell and disappeared. Moonlight's magic returned. Stellaluna and Screwball ran over to her. Disharmony stayed behind. He looked up at Discord. Discord looked at him. "Go with them, your sisters can't have the attention forever!" Disharmony nodded and ran up to his mom. Screwball and Stellaluna were asking her tons of questions. "Are you okay Mom?" "Who was that?" "Did you feel scared?" "Are we in trouble?" Moonlight looked at both of them. "Slow down you two!" Discord slowly walked over to her and offered her his claw. She held up her hoof and slowly got up. "Thank you. Now what did you three say?" Screwball started. "Are you okay?" Moonlight nodded. "Yes I'm fine. Stellaluna what was your question?" Stellaluna slowly walked toward her. "Who was that really tall, black pony?" Moonlight looked surprised. "I'll tell you later. It's a long story. Disharmony?" Disharmony flew up to his mother. "Did you and Dad feel scared?" Discord and Moonlight looked at each other. Then they laughed. "A little Disharmony. Wouldn't you feel scared if somepony wanted to drain all your magic?" Disharmony shook his head. "Nothing scares me! I'm like Dad, if someone did that to me I would show them who's in charge!" After hearing that everyone began laughing. Disharmony was confused. "What's so funny!" Screwball and Stellaluna said in unison. "You are!" Then they got up. The three watched as both their parents continued laughing. "Mom and Dad are really weird." Disharmony said. Screwball laughed. "So are we!"
