~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Fluttershy's Home: Fluttershy's POV ~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*Yawn* "Ah... Good morning Onyx..." I said as I streched my legs out a bit on the bed. To my surprise, I didn't have any nightmares last night like I usually would. I didn't even see princess anywhere. She usually stops by to say hello, so it's weird she decided not to come. Maybe she was just too busy with other ponies.

"Good morning Flutte-" I heard something whisper very faintly.

"Huh? Is anypony there?" I looked around to find nopony was in my room. Nopony but me and Onyx... "D-did you talk?" I asked the doll.

"..." It remained lifeless, but there was something off about it. It wasn't frowning like it did yesterday, no, it had a smile on it's face...

"Umm, okay I guess... I'm going to go freshen up a bit and get some breakfast, so don't go anywhere!" I said as I returned his cute little grin. I walked out of the room and closed the door behind and headed to the restroom. So what's on the agenda today? Feed the animals, Go meet up with Twilight, Feed the animals, Stay indoors and go to sleep early... Okay The truth is, I really don't know why my birthday had to be the day before nightmare night. It seems kinda silly considering that I am scared of most things... But maybe, just maybe, I might be brave this year and go out with the girls...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Fluttershy's Home: Onyx's POV ~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I was awoken by my owner's soft voice:

"Good morning Onyx" She still so adorable, but will never be as adorable as Chrissy.

"Good morning Flutte- Oh shit...." I answered very very quietly hoping that she didn't hear me, because Discord would probably make hell rain on me if she found out.

Thankfully, she just asked if anyone was there and left to get some breakfast. "Fuck that was close..." I said to myself. "Speaking of breakfast, that dream popcorn tastes great, but it didn't fill me up much... Let's see what's on the menu," I summoned and IHOP menu and browsed through my choices. "Mmm, all of these pancakes look so delicious..." In the end I just decided to summon five pancakes with nothing special about them, with a side of a few hashbrowns and a large glass of apple juice. I then felt some people judging my taste in food. "What? This is my food aight? If you don't like it then that's your fucking problem!" I said as I faced the readers.

I finished eating quickly and toped it off with a satisfied burp. I cleaned up all of the mess I made by sending all of the dishes into a black hole. I looked out the window that faced the town and saw ponies setting up some kind of Halloween decorations. Halloween? When I left my home it was like march or something, unless Halloween is on a different day here. I thought. I sat back down on the dresser when I heard footsteps approach the door. And there he was, the motherfucker that thought messing with me would be a good idea, the goddamn son of a bitch that had the balls to bite me, the poor bunny that was about to get so rekt right now, Angel. Now, I asure you that he isn't what the name implies. That thing has some sharp-ass teeth that can pierce through flesh like butter, and has the atitude of a prostitue from New Jersey. As he glared at me, I pictured him saying something like, "Jezzus, You're so fakin ugly." or something. I don't know how people are there, seriously, I don't. I'm just sayin'... I've never been there once in my life... Quit looking at me like that!

Instead of returning his glare, I simply smiled at him and said, "This is payback you white fuzzy shit." and then teleported him into the underworld, literally. Don't ask how, but heaven and hell are very real, and I managed to find them both while traveling through dimensions. After a few second I decided to bring the bunny back. To my surprise, he wasn't dead, but instead was currently on fire and one of his eyes was missing from it's socket. The poor bunny was sreeching in pain and running around like crazy in the room. Now, I know that I'm supposed to be a very evil person, but I think I went a bit too far on this one, so I just instantly healed his wounds and returned his eye. The little thing just looked at me, terrified out of his mind. He just gulped loudly and ran out the room. Then, I heard Flutter's voice come from the hallway.

"Oh, good morning Angel Bunny, did something scare you in my room?" I couldn't see his face, but I could tell that he was probably nodding very fast. "A big, red, scary thing in my room? There's nothing like that in there! Come on, I'll show you there's no need to be afraid." As she said that, she was dragging the rabbit into her room by force. The rabit was trying it's hardest to not get past the door frame of the room. It crawled hopelessly away from Fluttershy, as she lift her wings, and with one final tug, she pulled the bunny into the air like a hawk lifting it's prey. The bunny cried and cried for it release but Fluttershy simply ignored his efforts.

"See? There's nopony in here other than Ony-... Onyx..." She finished with a bit of hesitation. She let the bunny go and as expected, the lil' shit ran away faster than a cheeta. She then approached me slowly and asked me a question: "Onyx? Are you alive?" Fuck, what do I do? At this point, she was inches away from my face. Do I tell her? What the fuck am I supposed to do?! As if the universe heard my cry help, there was a knock on the door downstairs. She backed up and gave me one last look before leaving to answer the door. Whoever it is out there, I love you so, so much. Alright, game plan... Call Discord for advice? Alright... Hello? Onyx to Discord, can you read me?

Oh, hello Onyx, what do you youngsters say these days? "What's up?"

Discord, we have a code red, I repeat, a code red. Fluttershy is onto me!

A code red?! That's completely unreal! Well whatever, I sent Astrot to Twilight already, so she should be coming over pretty soon.

I think she's here already... Do you have any advice on what to do?

Well, for the time being, try to lay as low as you can, and make sure only she suspects anything. If any of the other ponies start to get suspicions, it very well be the end of us both...

Alright, thanks bro, Onyx out! I finished the telepathic conversation. So there I was, trying not to act suspicious as the princess and my owner walked into the room. Astrot was lifelessly sitting on Twilight's back, while I was sitting at the edge of the dresser.

"...And Angel was very scared of him today, even though Angel bit him yesterday." Flutters said.

"Well, Astrot here hasn't given me any trouble at all! Owlicious hasn't done anything to him, and spike thinks he looks pretty cool." Twilight said with a bit of concern showing on her face.

Hey dude, Someone called me telepathically.

...Astrot? Is that you? Bro, what did Twilight do to you? I asked him with worry.

Heh, yup, it's me, and I just got to her tree house this morning, so thankfully, nothing has happened.

Oh man, I was so worried that she would probe your asshole with her horn or something dude! I don't want to imagine what kinds of test she will preform on us later... See, Discord told us that she was very nerdy, meaning that when she discovered something new, she would run test after test on it. Considering the fact that we we're just introduced into Equestria yesterday, there was probably a test storm coming our way.

I know right? That bitch probably wants to disect us both to see how the fuck we carry so much chaos in one little body

Hey, did you by any chance have a weird dream last night? I asked him, wondering if he also had the same powers I did.

Yup, a lucid one actually. I'm guessing you did too, didn't you?

Well, what can I say? Yeah. Actually, I wanted to ask you something, How much power do you think Discord gave you? I knew at that moment that shit would get pretty crazy soon enough.

Hmm... I don't know actually. I haven't done anything too advanced. I think so far it's only been telepathy and teleportation.

Oh shit... Dude, if Discord gave us the same amount of power, I promise you, soon enough, you will start having a shit load of fun.

Oh really? What can YOU do? Oh my...

"Well, for starters, this," I said as I stood up and jumped off the dresser. Astrot looked pretty confused at that moment. The two mares had suddenly stopped talking as well.

"What did you do to them?" He asked as he stared at them both.

"Nothing much really, I just froze time entirely, that's all." I just streched a bit like if I didn't just say anything mindblowing.

"You, froze time, and, you're saying I could probably do it too?" He asked as he tried to figure out I did that little magic trick.

"I mean, if you tried you might be able to I guess." I answered as I started to grow bored of standing in one spot while he tried to process my power.

"Well, can you teach me how to? This is pretty badass you know?" He said with exitement.

"Look bro, all you need to do is say or think what you want, then snap your fingers. That's it." I said while he gave me a weird look.

"Uh, you do realize we don't have fingers right?"

"You might not be able to see them, but you can still feel them if you try to make a fist."

"Oh shit, you're right! they're definately there! So, do you think I can do everything you can?"

"Well, I don't know if we have the same amount of power, you know what, try this," I summoned my black angel wings.

"Alright, here goes..." He closed his eyes for a bit, but nothing happened. "What? Why didn't that work?"

"Hmm, maybe you just don't have the same power that I do... Well, try this instead." I summoned a small grey cube in front of me. Surely enough, the cube appeared as Astrot summoned it.

"Welp, there you have it, you aren't even close to how powerful I am." I said with a smile as he started frowning. "But I know of a way to fix that."

"How? I thought only Discord could give out magic..." He said with a bit of hope.

"I'm sure you remember the elements of harmony talk from yesterday, so, I'm my dream, I created something more powerful than them, please, give a loud cheer, to the elements of disharmony!" I summoned the sound of an audience cheering as the black gems materialized.

"Woah... You made gems that carry a load of power? That's insane!" He said as he observed them with curiosity.

"Exactly, that's what chaos is all about! Not making sense is my special talent, so that's probably why I got this much power in the first place. See, I thought, since Discord is probably going to give each of the ponies a doll, maybe I could mess things up a bit by creating these beauties." I said as I pointed at the six gems floating around in a circle. "Since I'm the most powerful of the two of us, the element of chaos belongs to me." The star-shaped gem broke out the circle and floated towards me until it hit my fluffy chest. Then it started to fuse into my slowly until it was out of sight. "And for you, I think the element of torture would fit you nicely." The butterfly with cracks on it's wings floated towards him and fused with him.

"Woah, I could just feel the power surge right through me instantly... Let me try this again," He closed his eyes once more, and this time, he sprouted black twigs with cobwebs on them from his back. "Aww sweet! I can't believe it actually worked!"

"Uh, dude, you just grew two tree branches from your back, while you were supposed to summon wings..."

"Bro, you just told me that chaos meant not making any sense, and this sure as hell doesn't, but watch this," With one flap of the his twigs, the cobweb within them glowed and he was sent flying into the air.

"Huh, I should keep that in mind..." We spent a bit of time trying out a few other summonings when I realized something. "Hey dude, I get the feeling we should do some of this later on, I mean, the ponies are still frozen in time, so maybe we should get on with the story...?"

"I guess you're right," He said as he made his wings dissapear. "Let's get back into position and make the sands of time start flowin' again." With that, I sat back down on the dresser, he got on Twilight's back, and the two mares kept talking like nothing had happened.

Some time later.....

~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Street's of Ponyville: Twilight's POV ~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"I'm telling you Fluttershy, if there's anything fishy going on with these dolls, the test will surely point it out." I said to one of my best friends as we headed to my castle.

"I don't know Twilight... Remember, Discord gave these to us, so they might have some kind of protection against your tests." She quietly said to me as I opened the front door of my giant home. I still don't know why that box had to make such a huge castle instead of a regular library...

"Don't worry about it, I'm sure things will turn out just fine." I told her as I put my hoof around her and pulled her in for a hug.

"Okay then, I trust you Twilight..." She almost whispered. As most of ponies know, and as her name implies, Fluttershy is a very shy pony, sometimes even too shy for her own good, but as shy as she could ever be, she was still my friend, so I had to help her. You see, yesterday was Fluttershy's birthday, and Discord gave her a strange looking doll that was supposed to resemble a human. Now I know this may sound very weird, but I've been a human before, and I can asure you they do not look anything like that. Anyway, today in the early morning, an interesting package arived at my doorstep. I opened the package and an absurd amount of confetti shot straight into my face. After I regained my vision, I saw that there was doll on the inside, alongside a notecard. The notecard read:

Hello there Princess Twilight, this here is my buddy Astrot.
I hope the two of you get along just fine.

-Love from the 9th dimension, Discord

And there he was, a small, white doll with long black hair, and a grey sweater on. He had a wide smile on his face that kinda creeped me out at first, but then I noticed that it had a weird touch of cuteness to it. I thought that it would be a good idea to run some test on both of the dolls to make sure that they were harmless, and here we are.

"Alright Fluttershy, I need you to set both of the dolls on that empty table over there," I said as I waved my hoof at a table while I was looking for a bit of lab gear. Goggles, check. Magic meter, check. Clock, check. Chaos shield, check. Yup, looks like I have everything I need to get started. I thought as I set down all of the items down next to the dolls with my magic. I gave Flutters her pair of goggles as I put on mine. Then, I set up the Chaos shield between us. The Chaos shield was an interesting item that Princess Celestia gave to me when Fluttershy reformed Discord. The way it was used was simple: All I had to do was put it on the ground, power it with one of the elements of harmony, and then it cast a large invisble bubble that blocked out all chaotic magic. Next, I set the clock in front of us on the table as well as the magic meter and had them both start counting time and the energy the dolls cast.

"Ready Fluttershy?" I asked as I looked at my lab assistant.

"I think so." She answered. It came out more of a question than an answer but I didn't mind. I then cast a spell to release whatever magic could be inside of the dolls, and to my surprise, it was a lot more than I could've ever imagined. The entire room around us was filled with bright lights coming from the two things on the other side of the table. A bright red light coming from Astrot, and a bright green light coming from Onyx. The entire room started changing shape as time passed, the walls were now made of black steel, the floor was now what appeared to be a night sky, and the roof was just an upside down version of the original floor, with the exception of the area that the bubble covered. The magic meter had imploded into pieces, while the clock was counting backwards, even thought it was in the bubble with us.

"You know, I'm kinda glad I decided to put up this shield," I said with a nervous laugh. Fluttershy looked as pale as a ghost, like she was about to faint.

"W-what is all of this?" She stammered very quietly.

"I can't say that I know the answer to that, but I think this is what chaotic magic would do if let loose on the world." I said as I watched a few crystal spikes start to form on the ceiling. "I think it's about time I turned off my spell..." I added as I stopped casting the magic reveal spell. The room went back to normal, but the crystal spikes remained. "Do you have any idea what this means?" I asked. She just shook her head, still very terrified at the amazing display of power. "That magic meter can only measure up to nine thousand magicwattz. Princess Celestia's magic level is around seven thousand. That means that whatever magic those things have, it's a lot more than the princess's."

"Ooof... Whoever you are, this is a very impolite way to call me..." A familiar voice called. Oh no. And there he was, the creator of the dolls, Discord.

"Oh, why hello there Twilight! Was it you who released that massive amount chaotic energy into the world?" He asked with curiosity.

"Discord!!! Explain why the dolls you gave me and Fluttershy have so much dangerous magic in them!!!" I yelled at him. Honestly, I should've done more to him. I mean, Fluttershy could've gotten hurt by those things.

"You know, you don't have to yell at me like that. And to answer your question, since the doll are so hard to make, I put some protection spells on them to avoid tears, burns, or anything of the sort." He said as he refilled the dolls with some of his own magic.

"Do you have any idea what would've happened if some of that magic got out into the world?! Either of us could've been very badly hurt!" I yelled once more. You've gone way to far this time. When I tell Princess Cele-

"All of that magic was very well secured inside of the dolls until you broke the seal and caused a massive disturbance in the chaotic force, so it was quite impossible for either of them to burst without me noticing before they did it." Or maybe I shouldn't tell her... I blushed very deeply with embarrassment when he said that.

"You- But- Ugh... I'm watching you Discord!" I shouted as I stomped out of the room. I know he has something planned!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Twilight's Castle: Onyx's POV ~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Discord! You just saved both our asses! How do you feel?

Well, what can I say? Being the lord of chaos requires for me to be able to lie on the spot.

I'm not gonna lie, that played out very well for you. Congrats sir.

Oh, it truly was nothing, I've done way worse and have come out way better.

Hey dude, you might want to say something to Shy over there

Oh, of course.

"Fluttershy?" Discord said "Are you alright?"

"Yeah... I'm okay. I'm just a bit scared, that's all." She almost whispered.

"Look, you know you're my best friend, so you should know that I would never do anything to hurt you." Discord started leaning in a bit closer to her. Fluttershy lifted her head a bit and looked at Discord straight in his yellow eyes.

"I know, and you're one of my best friends too, but I just don't know if I can fully trust you when no one else really does..." She said as she backed up a bit. Dude! You're loosing her! Say something!

What do I say?! I don't want to freak her out you know?

I don't fucking know! Invite her to that Halloween thing or something!

"Hey, you know, I could go to the Nightmare Night festival with you and your friends, to try to get along and such..." Discord said shyly.

"I don't know... I've never been one to go out to those festival things..." She backed up a bit more and started hiding behind her hair. Dammit! Tell her you'll be with her the enitre way so she won't get scared!

"Come on now, I'll even stay close by you to make sure nothing scares you. Besides, I'm sure we'll have tons of fun together!" Fluttershy started coming out of her shell a bit.

"And you promise you won't leave me?" She asked.

"Of course, I will gladly stay with you." OH SHIT, HE GOT HER!!!

"Um, okay then..." Fluttershy said with a heartwarming smile.

"Alright, eh... So, should I pick you up around seven?" Discord you devil!

"That sounds fine... I'll see you then I guess..."

"Okay then... See you later." *poof* Oh my Celestia... I can't believe I did that...

Bro! You fucking did it! I can't believe that you actually got her!

Jesus Christ, that was hella close Discord. You really need to work on you dating skills.

Cheer the fuck up Astrot, Discord got the girl, and we got off the hook, what more do you want?

I can't be as happy as you guys okay? There's something about this situation that's really giving me a bad feeling...

Hmm? And what could that be?

The fact that I had to threaten Spike to keep quiet earlier on. I know very damn well that once that dragon gets some alone time with the princess, we're fucked.

Oh fuck...
