The Elements of Chaos Book III Chaos and Love
Silverpants and Bitter Tart
Previous ChapterNext ChapterMoonlight and her friends were visiting Star Dim in Canterlot. Star had been invited by Silverpants to attend a small gathering in the Canterlot fields. They were all getting a small bite to eat at the cafe. "I just adore Canterlot! Moonlight, didn't you live here before you met Discord?" Star asked as she sipped her tea. Moonlight nodded. Chocolate jumped up and down as she ate her chocolate pudding. "Hmmm! This place is very fancy shmancy!" Crazed Candy sipped her glass of sparkling cider. "Speaking of Canterlot and Discord, Moonlight why isn't Discord with you sugarcube?" Moonlight looked up. "Oh he did not want to come, the ponies of Canterlot bore him, their too posh for him. Besides who would watch Disharmony, Stellaluna, and Screwball?" Cotton Feathers looked at her. "Those three seem like a hooful with the both of you, can Discord really handle those three by himself?" Moonlight gave her an annoyed glance. "Your kidding right? Do you really not think he can't handle them? Are you forgetting who we're talking about?" Cotton played along. "Discord, Spirit of Chaos and Disharmony, your husband, should I continue?" Moonlight smirked. "Please do, I'd like to see how far you can go." Cotton Feathers gave her a smug grin. Just as she opened her mouth Star interrupted her. "Girls look! It's Silverpants!" They all turned to see two stallions. One was a Unicorn. He had a blue coat with a well groomed dark blue mane. He wore a black vest and had a monocle over his right eye. The stallion standing next to him was a purple Earth Pony. He had a mixture of blues in his mane, and did not look as neat as Silverpants. The two walked over to the six mares. Silverpants looked at Star Dim. "Oh Star Dim! How lovely to see you on this fine afternoon! How are you my dear?" Star Dim blushed. "Oh I am doing quite well thank you. This is Bitter Tart I presume?" Silverpants nodded. "It is indeed, Bitter Tart has been helping me prepare for this lovely celebration for months now. And who are these charming young mares next to you?" Star Dim arose from her seat and brought Silverpants to all the girls. "This is Discorded Swirls, Chocolate Pie, Cotton Feathers, Crazed Candy, and Moonlight Chaos. Girls this is Silverpants and Bitter Tart." Silverpants and Bitter Tart shook hooves with everypony. Crazed Candy and Bitter Tart stayed together for a while. "Um hello. I'm Bitter Tart, your Crazed Candy right?" Crazed turned a bright pink. "Yes, that's me." Bitter Tart looked at her eyes. "I really like your name, it fits you. Are you visiting Canterlot?" Crazed Candy nodded. "Thank y'all kindly. And yes I'm visiting with Star and my friends. Do you live here?" Bitter Tart shook his head. "No, I'm just helping Silverpants, I live in Manehattan." They were immediately interrupted by Discorded. "Um hello! Snap out of it you two!" Crazed Candy and Bitter Tart pulled away and they both blushed. Silverpants smiled. "Well, it was charming meeting you all, I look forward to seeing you all tonight! Come Bitter Tart, we have work to do." Bitter stood up and slowly followed Silverpants. He quickly waved to Crazed Candy and then continued talking to Silverpants. Star Dim kept staring at Silverpants. She looked so phased out. "Star Dim, are you feeling okay?" Cotton Feathers asked. Star Dim shook her head. "Oh yes! Sorry darling, he is just so handsome and charming!" Chocolate, Crazed, and Cotton Feathers stared at her. Star Dim blushed. "Um, so.......anypony up for some shopping for tonight?"
"Ooh! I like this one! Or maybe this one!" "This looks awesome! Nah! That's too bright!" "I love them! Their so lovely!" Each of them all went from shop to shop to try on hundreds of dresses. Star wanted everypony to look perfect. Eventually they all found the perfect dress. Cotton Feathers had a green dress with blue lacing. Crazed was getting a simple dress, it was a light blue dress with small stripes. Discorded was getting a dress with a dark and discorded rainbow. Very similar to her mane and tail colors. Star had a deep purple gown with lacing and sequence everywhere. Chocolate was getting a bright pink dress with white spots everywhere. She also had her grey mane curled and a small feather was put in her hair. And Moonlight was getting a black dress that had a moon and stars across it. Streaks of blue and purple lined the edges and she had a blue ribbons were tied up in her hair. By the time they were finished they had to meet Silverpants to get to the party. Chocolate had wanted to bring her party cannon but Star Dim promised she could use it next time. When they found Silverpants he looked very proud. "My, you girls look lovely. May I have the honor of escorting you?" He held out his hoof towards Star. She giggled. "You certainly may." When they arrived they found a bunch of Canterlot ponies talking. Slow music was playing, and a few ponies were enjoying some sweets. Just as they were introduced to everypony the moon began to come out. Crazed Candy found Bitter Tart in the crowd and the two began a long conversation. Star Dim began talking with Silverpants and all of the other guests. Discorded and Chocolate Pie went in the crowd to liven things up. Cotton Feathers was gaining so much attention from all the stallions she became busy very quickly. Just when Moonlight felt like she was alone she felt someone touch her. She turned around to see Discord. He was wearing a tuxedo. "What are you doing here? And I love your outfit." Discord smiled. "I wanted to surprise you." Moonlight hugged him. "Where are Stellaluna, Disharmony, and Screwball?" Discord pressed his claw againsted her mouth. "I have that taken care of, do you have any time for a dance perhaps?" Discord held out his paw. Moonlight smiled and gently took it. "I thought you didn't like coming to these kind of parties." Discord pulled her closer. "I don't, but you make it bearable. Besides who says I'm not going to have a little fun?" Moonlight felt herself being twirled and moved around and could not take her eyes off of Discord. As the song began to end Star Dim came over she noticed Discord was there too but decided to go with it. "Silverpants I introduced you to Moonlight earlier, but I don't believe you met her husband. This is Discord. Discord I would like you to meet Silverpants." Silverpants glared at Discord, but shook his claw anyway. "It's very nice to meet you Discord, how long have you two been married?" Discord looked at Moonlight then said, "Three years." Silverpants smiled. "That's good to hear, you are very lucky to have such a lovely wife." Discord smiled slightly. "Yes I am." Silverpants took Star's hoof again. "It was vey nice to meet you, I hope to see you again." Discord sighed. "Finally! I thought he would never leave!" Moonlight giggled. "You were so nervous." Discord quickly turned to her. "I was not nervous! I was just......okay I guess I was a little nervous." Moonlight sighed. "I think Crazed Candy has a crush." Discord looked out at the crowd of ponies. "Oh really? Who?" Moonlight pointed out Crazed Candy who was next to a young Earth Pony stallion. "Bitter Tart. It seems like they are all finding their special somepony." Discord laughed and picked Moonlight up. "Well, I already found mine!" Moonlight smiled. "And I found mine."
