Disharmony Rises
Chapter 16
Previous ChapterThe world itself stopped around him as Jet felt the blades pierce his flesh. He opened his eyes and looked around. With a sudden realization that he could move now, he stepped past the group of villains and made his way towards the middle of the courtyard. He suddenly felt a chill up his spine. He started to turn around as he walked about freely. To his astonishment, he saw himself in the midst of the villains. He was still skewered by their swords.
"How in the..." Jet began as he walked around the scene, confused.
He heard a familiar voice from somewhere above him.
"Long time no see Jet." Discord said.
"Discord? What's going on? Am I dead... again?" Jet asked.
Discord materialized in front of him.
"Hmm, technically yes. But, I can temporarily keep your body alive so you can have your revenge." He replied.
"Why would you help me?" Jet retorted.
"Well, I happen to like you and Rainbow Dash." Discord said.
Jet gave him a wry look.
"Ok, fine. I don't like Starswirl. He's smug and frankly a bit of a know it all. Plus, people seem to think me and him are one in the same. Can you believe that? I mean, honestly. People and their theories." Discord said as he looked off into the distance, seemingly looking at someone or something that Jet couldn't see.
"Ok. So, how do you intend to help me?" Jet asked.
"It's simple really. All you would have to do is let me inhabit your body alongside you. This will allow you to be imbued with my chaos energy, thus giving you the ability to temporarily live on after death." Discord explained.
Jet thought about this for a moment.
"I let you exact your vengeance and I get to rid the world of Starswirl. Do we have a deal?" Discord asked as he offered Jet his hand.
"Fine. But no funny business." Jet replied as he shook Discords hand.
Discord disappeared and Jet was encased in a dark blue light. It swirled around him and covered his entire body as he shut his eyes tightly.
