Game of Chaos
Preparations
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThe first thing to do now that Chaos stopped for now was to get everypony safe. Since most of Ponyville was destroyed the only safe place was Twilights castle. Luckily it was big enough for everypony. Once everypony was safe the Mane 6 started to prepare Discord for the competition.
Rainbow was wearing her best coach outfit and was making her propably best coach performance.
"So team, uhm, Discord, you may think you're ready for this this, don't you? Well, you AREN'T! This is not just any game, this is the most important game in your life. It is about the fate of all of Equestria! Do you understand me?"
"Yes, sir, I mean, yes ma'am!"
"Alright, show me the best you've got!"
Discord took a deep breath before he threw a bowling ball on the ground ground, the ball bounced back and turned into a full moon, then there was an explosion, a penguin, a crystal pony, in the next moment the whole room was filled with ice cream and popcorn, then everything went back to normal except for Discord who was split up in 50 miniature Discords, they ran around and after a while they all jumped into each other and fused back into the normal Discord.
"Hmm," said Rainbow Dash, "do you think that this can beat Chaos?"
"...Maybe..." answered Discord.
"Well, I think it cannot! You call yourself a dragonequus? I've seen ponies doing more chaotic things than this! And they weren't even unicorns, they had no magic at all! Speaking of which, where is Pinkie Pie anyway?" Discord answered by shrugging his shoulders.
"Umm, Rainbow Dash," Fluttershy interrupted the training, "maybe you shouldn't be so mean to Discord. That is very bad for his self-confidence, and after all that's the most important thing."
"What!?" was the only thing Rainbow Dash could say about this.
"I'm...just suggesting..."
"Look, I'm sorry, but you simple cannot compete with 'The Chaos' just with self-confidence. I mean, just thinking everything will go well won't help us this time."
While the two were talking Discord decide to take a brake, he was at Fluttershys home - he could call it house anymore - and the sky-chess-game was about to come to an end, which could only mean that it would be night soon, at least he thought that, when Twilight found him.
"Hey," said she.
"Hey..." answered he.
"Are you nervous because of the competition tomorrow?"
"No, it's just...He kinda reminds me of myself, you know, before i found...friends."
They looked each other in the eyes. Twilight could understand how Discord felt, there was a time she had no friends too. And now he's fighting for them against an enemy he maybe not be able to defeat.
"Well, now you have friends," said Twilight, "friends who are willing to help you in this."
Discord just noded, then Twilight said: "Together we can beat Chaos!"
