The Elements of Chaos Book III Chaos and Love

About a month ago Chocolate Pie had opened up a shop called Sugarcube Corner. She had much more room to make and sell her sweets. Some of them were even made by Crazed Candy's family. They were all going to see what it looked like. They were still waiting for Discorded Swirls when a bright raspberry red pony came in through the door. When he saw Chocolate Pie he rushed up to her. "Hiya Chocolate Pie! What's new around here!" Chocolate giggled. "Not much, although I did just make a new candy recipie!" The pony grinned. "I'll take four of them!" Chocolate put the candy on the counter and the stallion stuffed the candy into his mouth. "Mmmm! This is delicious and soooooo sweet! What do you call it!" Chocolate jumped over to him. "Well I call Sugar Chocolate! Because it's sugar coated candy in the shape of a chocolate bar!" The pony swallowed. "Genius name! Hey could I get four more of those and two cupcakes?" He placed eight bits on the counter. Chocolate laughed. "Of course you can!" Just as she raced of Cotton asked, "Um......Chocolate.....who is that?" Chocolate stopped. "Oh silly me! Girls meet Raspberry Pie!"

A few minutes after Chocolate brought Raspberry Pie's things Discorded and Blazing Dash came in. "Hi Chocolate! Sorry we're late! Woah! This place looks awesome!" Discorded said. Blazing Dash looked around for a bit and then noticed Moonlight. He walked over to her. "Where is Discord? Is he here? Or is he waiting somewhere to take you away because I'm talking to you?" Moonlight backed up. "Don't talk about Discord like that!" Blazing Dash looked shocked. "Okay, I'm sorry. Maybe we got off the wrong page yesterday. Can we try to fix this?" Moonlight sighed. "Alright, I'm sorry too." Blazing wrapped his hoof around her. "You don't need to be sorry." Moonlight pulled Blazing's hoof away. "Why are you visiting here?" Blazing pointed towards Discorded. "I'm visiting her, we went to flight school together, and with Cotton too. You have wings why didn't you go?" Moonlight turned away from him. "I have my reasons. Besides nobody would accept a pony with wings and a horn." Blazing sighed. "I would. I think you would have had an awesome time there. Discorded always did." Moonlight looked at him. "What do you mean?" Blazing looked at Discorded. "She was always a great flyer. Her mane swaying in the breeze. Her wings flapping harder and hader. She would always try hard. She did an awesome job at such a young age. I'm glad I met her. And I'm also glad I met you." Moonlight felt nervous. "I'm going to go join my friends." But Blazing pulled her back. "Relax Moonlight. Your safe." Moonlight felt scared. She made her way out of Blazing's grasp. And ran back to her friends. "Chocolate I need to go home for a minute, I'll be right back." Chocolate smiled. "Okie dokie lokie!" Moonlight rushed out and ran.

Moonlight rushed through the door and pushed the door open. She quickly shut it and jumped on her bed. She tried to forget what was happening but it made her more scared and she began curling into a ball. Then she heard something walking up to the door. The door opened and Discord was there. He shut the door and walked over to their bed. He gently touched Moonlight. She quickly jumped back and looked up. "I'm sorry." Moonlight said in almost a whisper. "It was that stallion again wasn't it?" Discord asked. Moonlight nodded and tried not curl up again. "He was trying to keep me away from everyone else he was touching me......." Discord snapped. "He did WHAT!" Moonlight looked up at him. "He was touching me and trying to keep me away from everyone else." Discord began to grit his teeth. He looked very angry. "I'm sorry......" Moonlight said. Discord turned to her. "It's not your fault. But that stallion is driving me crazy! He is trying to take you away from me!" Then he brought Moonlight closer. "I will go with you anywhere that stallion goes I'm sorry if I lost my temper. Especially in front of you." Moonlight sighed. "Can I have some cotton candy?" Discord snapped his fingers and a large stick of cotton candy appeared. He handed it to her and she began to lick large amounts of. "Thank you." Then Discord sighed. "I suppose your going back?" Moonlight looked up. "Yes, I told Chocolate I would come back." Discord groaned. "Alright fine. But I'm coming with you this time."

Moonlight slowly walked in through the door to Sugarcube Corner, followed by Discord. All of her friends were talking to Raspberry Pie and Blazing Dash. Cotton Feathers walked over to her. "Moonlight, you need to come with me! Raspberry Pie and Blazing Dash have been telling us about where they live and what they have been doing!" Cotton grabbed Moonlight without letting her speak and pulled her over. Discord stayed far away from Blazing Dash but listened to their conversations. When Raspberry was younger he used to help his parents run their bakery. He had two younger brothers and an older sister. Raspberry went from town to town and met all kinds of ponies. He threw parties and helped brighten other lives. Then he pointed to his cutie mark. It was a blue balloon with confetti and streamers flying around. Chocolate became super excited. "Wow! That sounds like a lot of fun!" Then Blazing started telling his story. When he was young his parents became part of the Wonderbolts. When he was old enough he grew very good at flying. So well that he joined the new generation of the Wonderbolts. As he grew older he had become more popular among many Pegasi across Equestria. "But so far the only Pegasus that has really caught my eye is Discorded Swirls." Blazing stated. Discorded Swirls looked shocked. "Thanks. I think....."  She turned away and let Blazing finish.

By the time the moon was starting to rise everypony was leaving. Raspberry Pie and Chocolate Pie were still inside talking. Moonlight was about to walk home with Discord when something pulled her back. She turned to see Blazing Dash. Moonlight was about to talk when Blazing put his hoof over her mouth. "Moonlight I just want to tell you something. I promise." He slowly pulled his hoof away. "I'm sorry if you think I'm acting different around you. And I'm sorry if Discord thinks I'm trying to take you away from him. The truth is.......yes, I think you are a very nice and lovely pony, but I'm not THAT interested in you. No offense. Like I said before Discorded Swirls is one of the only mares that ever caught my full attention. The only reason I treated you that way was.......I was a little scared." Moonlights eyes grew wide. "You were?" Blazing nodded. "I mean come on. You are married to the Spirit of Chaos and Disharmony! You have magic that is beyond my imagination! You have three foals that are just like the both of you! I bet your life is perfect! I did not want to make you angry. You are a very special pony........... Can we at least be friends? I just want to make you happy, I don't want to get on your bad side. Or Discord's." Moonlight blinked. "You like her, don't you?" Blazing turned a slight pink. "Yeah I guess." Moonlight giggled. "Don't worry, you don't need to feel bad, like you said, I'm married to the Spirit of Chaos. I know what love feels like." Blazing looked at her. "Do you think she will ever like me?" Moonlight looked up at the sky. "She already likes you. But....love does not spark that quickly. I was actually the first to confess that I was in love with Discord." Blazing looked surprised. "You were?" Moonlight nodded. "Yes, I had already liked him from the day I met him, many things had to happen for me to realize that those feelings were bigger then that." Blazing glared at her. "Why was it him, I'm not saying you made a mistake but.......what is it that seperates him from everyone else?" Moonlight smiled. "Besides his appearance, everything! I loved how his magic was different and how he did anything to make me happy. Besides I am quite fond of his appearance. What makes somepony like you is by making them feel different, but in a special way. Discord was the one who showed what my magic was capable of, Discord was the one who brought my friends together, Discord MADE me feel special." Blazing was amazed. "Wow. So are you the only one out of all your friends that is married?" Moonlight nodded. "I was just ready, I loved Discord. He loved me back....." Blazing cut in. "You two were practically made for each other." Moonlight walked over to him. "If this helps before I married Discord, Discorded Swirls told me that she used to have a crush on you." Blazing was frozen. "R-r-really?" Moonlight nodded. "If you like her, show her what she means to you, what makes her different. But be yourself." Blazing nodded. "Thanks Moonlight. I feel so much better." Moonlight nodded and walked off. She found Discord waiting for her. "What were you two doing?" He had a slightly scary tone but Moonlight smiled. She flew up to him and said, "Don't worry, everything is fixed." Discord glared at her. "What did he do to you?" Moonlight gently kissed him. "Relax. Trust me, he won't bother you any more. I promise."
