The Elements of Chaos Book III Chaos and Love
Moonlight's Past
Previous ChapterNext ChapterMoonlight flew off into the Everfree Forest. She wanted to be alone. Moonlight found a small cave and flew down into it. Inside she found a small pond. She glanced at her reflection, she looked like Dark Chaos. She had been right all along. She didn't deserve Discord. Considering her past she was amazing she got this far. After all she had not had the most pleasant past. In fact the only thing that had kept her from growing into this had been Discord.
Like all ponies Moonlight had parents. Her mother was a light blue Unicorn, she was very good at keeping everything organized, and in order. Her father was a black Pegasus, he was very good at making sure life and love was spread everywhere. Moonlight's parents had discovered at a very early age Moonlight had magic that was different from everypony else. They figured it was just a phase and she would grow out of it. But as she got older, her magic grew stronger. Ponies laughed at her and made fun of her. Her parents tried to get her to control and tried to get her not to use her magic, For they did not like her magic. The only pony that accepted her magic was her cousin, Flickering Star. She was a Unicorn who had magic similar to Moonlight's, but it was not as strong. She could only perform extremely simple spells. Moonlight's magic would always make a mess of the house and it would drive her parents crazy. Eventually when Moonlight was a young filly, she heard her parents talking about taking her powers away forever. They could put a special ring on her horn and it would prevent her from using her magic. Moonlight became upset and felt like she was not wanted anymore. She left her family that day. After she earned her cutie mark, Moonlight wandered Equestria and tried to find somepony who understood and would accept her magic. One day she was underneath a cotton candy cloud and was crying because she felt alone. That's when she met Discord. He looked different when he was younger. He was much smaller, his wings and antlers were much shorter then they were now. Eventually she met Dark Chaos and the three of them used their magic to spread chaos and disharmony across Equestria. Dark Chaos would always try to find some way to get Discord's attention. As they got older she confessed she had a crush on him, but he never seemed to return her feelings. Dark Chaos began to grow jealous of Moonlight. Discord always seemed to give her more attention, he was always trying to help her. Before Dark Chaos was given all the attention, he use to do everything with her. Then once Moonlight came into the picture everything changed. She tried not to show her feelings because she did not want to hurt Discord. But that all changed.
By the time the three were teenagers they had all changed a bit. They all grew taller, and their magic had grown greatly. Discord began developing a crush on Moonlight. She always seemed free and enjoyed everything he showed her. He always thought she was one of the prettiest mare's he had come across. Moonlight also grew attached to Discord. They began seeing each other more and more often. Dark Chaos began growing extremely angry. Moonlight was getting all the attention, she was getting the praise. Soon her love for Discord turned into hate. She wanted to show him how it felt to have somepony you care about being taken away from you. Days later Dark Chaos made one of the biggest mistakes of her life, and it cost her everything.
After they had all had a fun day of spreading chaos, Moonlight and Discord went up to a high mountain and began talking to each other. Dark Chaos watched from behind some bushes. Then Dark Chaos felt crushed as she watched Discord take a flower and put it in Moonlight's hair and gently kiss her on her forehead. The last words she heard Discord say before she lost her sanity was, "Moonlight, I think you are a very special pony. I predict a great future between you and me. I'm glad to have a special somepony like you." Dark Chaos felt completely torn and jumped from behind the bushes. She began yelling and asking why she was never shown any compassion Moonlight was receiving. Discord tried to calm her down but Dark Chaos didn't listen. She aimed her horn at Moonlight and stuck her. Discord grew angry and fought back. Eventually Dark Chaos lost and fell. She looked at Discord's face and saw sadness. Dark Chaos saw Moonlight try to get up. Dark Chaos felt so angry and bitter that she blast Moonlight one more time sending her falling off the mountain before she fell unconcious.
