Salt, Anger, And Booze

Salt, Anger, And Booze
Part 6: Rage Boiled Over

By: Major Frostwing

It has been a week since Discord decided to come and piss me off. Therapy has been good and I feel a lot better. I still got this foreboding feeling in the pit of my stomach. I was writing up a few things in my journal nothing to do with my research or my therapy just something to write. Boredom is starting to become a terrible thing for me.

"Jon are you in here?" Nurse Red Line asked as she knocked on my door.

"Yea I'm just sitting at my desk." I said as I finished up my writing. I looked back to see Nurse Red Line standing with a clipboard in her hands. "What's with the clipboard?" I asked as she smiled to me handing it over. I quickly looked it over before my eyes widened. "Red these are release papers." I said as I saw her signature at the bottom of the page.

"Yes they are Jon. Your heart has passed all the tests set before it and you now have a strong heart once again." Red said with a smile. "I just need you to sign and we can get you out of here." I looked at her and then down at the sheet smiling. I picked up my pen signing my name.

"Thanks Red." I said getting up from my seat handing the clipboard back to her.

"No problem Jon." She said as she wrapped me in a light hug which I returned. "If you feel if there might be something wrong you can always talk to me." She said as I nodded releasing her from the hug. "Let's just get these papers finalized and get you back to your home. Strangely enough Spike is here to pick you up." I cocked an eyebrow at that as that feeling from before returned.

"I thought Twilight would be the one to come get me." I said slightly confused but shrugged as I followed after Red. After a few minutes I was sent on my way.

"Jon I'm so glad you're finally out but we got a problem." Spike said as soon as I saw him.

"Dude I just got out what could possibly be going wrong now?" I asked as he pointed outside at the other six girls standing outside. "Oh for fuck's sake." I muttered walking outside with Spike right behind me.

I scanned the girls over with my eyes and even I could see something was wrong with them. "Jon we are all happy to see you out of the hospital. Right girls?" Twilight asked as if she was forcing them to agree with her. They each seemed to be indifferent towards me except Fluttershy who walked up to me and laughed in my face before slapping me with a giggle. I just looked down at her before rolling my eyes tapping my fist on top of her head.

"Alright the fuck is wrong with all of you? Doesn't take a rocket scientist to realize there is a problem here." I pointed out as Applejack seemed to be shifting her eyes around looking anywhere but me.

"Nope. Nothing wrong here." She said as I rolled my eyes again.

"We can discuss this back at the house Jon." Twilight said as she began walking back to her house I followed but saw that the others went off in their own directions. "Girls we have to stop Discord! Where are you going?" Twilight asked as they all just kept walking.

"Wait did you say Discord?" I asked as I looked at Twilight with a cocked eyebrow.

"Yes. He did something to them and I don't know what to do." Twilight said throwing her hands up in the air.

"First off take me to where Discord is. I got business with him that needs dealt with. After I get there you go deal with the bitch squad back there." I said as I motioned behind me. "Discord comes first though." I said walking past her.

"Jon Discord is the God of Chaos what do you think you can do. Only the Elements of Harmony can stop him." Twilight ran up trying to stop me.

"Listen here Twilight me and Discord have business that needs dealt with. if you guys are the only ones who can stop him. You need to get those fuckers back up and running. That is your job now show me where Discord is before I start getting angry." I said in a calm tone but my eyes said otherwise. Twilight looked at me before slowly nodding taking me right to Discord.

Discord was sitting on a pink throne sipping on chocolate milk when we arrived. He looked up to see me and Twilight. "Ah if it isn't Twilight and Salt. Have you come to try and stop me?" He asked as he set his glass down.

"Twilight you can go do what you need to do." I said to her as she just looked at me then at Discord and then back to me. "Twilight I said go." Twilight flinched before nodding taking off in a mad sprint.

"We got business to talk about Discord." I said as I rolled my shoulder.

"Indeed we do Salt. Have you come to throw in with me?" Discord asked as he snapped his fingers appearing before me.

"Nah I told you what I was gonna do to you. So let's just get this over with ya big bitch." I said cracking my knuckles. Discord only threw back his head laughing at me. I reared back my fist blasting him in the gut with my right fist. Discord ceased his laughter hunching over in pain. "I'm gonna make you hurt you ugly mother fucker." I whispered to him as I seized Discord by his horns bringing his head down as I brought my knee up cracking him right in the jaw. I let go as I straightened my leg out straight kicking Discord into his throne which broke as he collided with it.

I smiled as i looked down at my right fist seeing the purple and black lightning arc around it. I looked up to see part of the throne flying right at me. I side stepped the flying piece of furniture watching it collide with a tree bowling it over. "YOU LITTLE STAIN!" Discord yelled as he got back to his feet.

"Well shit I knew that wouldn't keep you down but I didn't think you would get so angry." I said with a smile rolling my shoulder. "You finally ready to go now or do you need a warm up?" I asked as Discord snapped his fingers as a large sword appeared in his hand. I flexed my right hand feeling the lightning arc through my hand.

"I was wrong to make you come here. I can fix this mistake." Discord walked forward slowly dragging the blade behind him as he walked towards me. "Simply by killing you and scattering your remains to the winds." Discord hefted the large great sword above his head and was about to swing down when I raised my right hand. I flicked my wrist as the sword was flung out of his hand.

"Discord did you really think I would just sit still while you prepared to take over this little world?" I asked with a smirk. I flicked my wrist as the great-sword landed next to me. "I did some research my ugly friend. I learned how to mess with you. Also I learned how to hurt you no matter how you try to stop me." I tilted my neck cracking it before taking hold of the blade.

The blade glowed a dark purple as it shifted in my grasp. "What in Tartarus are you? This is not the creature I summoned into this world."

"What's wrong Discord? I thought you liked a good change up?" I asked as I lifted the blade up setting it on my shoulder. "As long as I got this bracer you can't stop me." I pointed out with a smirk.

Discord let out a growl as he summoned another blade charging at me. I only shrugged as I blocked his strike with my own blade. "Then I will just get rid of it then." I shrugged at him rearing back my left fist cracking him in the nose. He backed up holding his nose.

"Keep trying Discord. You might just get me by being. Oh I don't know a chaotic being you claim to be." I taunted as Discord raised his hand snapping his fingers at me. I cocked an eyebrow as a wall of air detonated in front of me. I felt my body go weightless before G's took hold of me as I was flung back down to the ground with a solid thud. I let out a cough as I slowly got back to my feet only to feel my back being stomped on. A hand seized me by my right arm before taking hold of the bracer.

"This bracer doesn't seem that important. Oh well." Discord ripped off the bracer as I smiled.

"Sorry Discord... I FUCKING LIED!" I felt the lightning arc through my entire body as I pushed myself up looking at Discord. "That thing didn't give me power. It locked it away." Discord looked at me confused until my skin shifted turning pitch black. "Now let's get this party started." I launched myself forward gripping Discord by his throat lifting him up and spiking him down into the ground. I grabbed him by his leg throwing him up in the air. I seized Discord by the leg with my magic as I brought him back down creating a crater with his body. "I SAID I WOULD MAKE YOU HURT YOU STUPID MOTHER FUCKER!" I picked up my sword giving it a spin before throwing it down into Discord's shoulder.

I heard him let out a yell of pain as I jumped down next to him. "What the hell are you?" Discord asked as I tapped my chin setting my foot on the blade pressing it in slowly.

"I think while I am like this you can call me Salt." I stamped my foot down on the handle of the sword hard as he grabbed me by my other leg. "Get off of me peasant." I said stomping him once in the face.

"JON!" I glanced out of the crater seeing Twilight with the others looking down at me and Discord. I smiled waving at her.

"Hey Twilight you mind dealing with this trash?" I asked stomping on Discord once again.

"Sure..." Twilight said looking unsure as I Stamped down on the hilt of the sword effectively pinning Discord to the ground.

I jumped out of the crater looking down at Discord. "Twilight if you would kindly." I said as they floated into the air blasting Discord with a large rainbow beam. After their beam was done I walked back picking up my bracer attaching it over my right arm. I felt a burning sensation as I returned to normal with a cough. "Ugh fuck that." I said scrunching up my face.

I turned back to see the girls still watching me with slacked jaws. I let out a shrug jumping back into the crater. I reached out to touch the blade sticking out of Discord only to recoil in pain when I touched it with my right hand. "FUCK!" I yelled as I looked down at my hand to see it smoking I shook it out as I reached out taking hold of the blade with my left hand pulling the sword out effortlessly. "Stupid fucking harmony magic burning my good hand." I grumbled as I walked out of the crater stopping before the girls leaning on the blade. "So... I guess I got some explaining to do don't I?" I asked with a smirk as they only nodded. "Cool let's go chat." I said as I carried the blade on my shoulders.

After a few minutes at Twilight's tree house I had explained everything to them as best as I could. "Wait wait wait." Twilight said as I nodded my head at her. "How did you get that Bracer off? We enchanted it so you couldn't take it off yourself." Twilight asked as I let out a chuckle.

"Simple I tricked Discord into taking the damn thing off. I needed him to so I could use NM." I got a few quirked eyebrows at that.

"Who in Tarnation is NM?" Applejack asked as I held up my right fist.

"NM is what I decided to call the parasite since the magic is powered by anger. NM is just the abbreviation of Nightmare Moon." I said as I lowered my hand rolling my shoulder. "Anyway I told Discord that the Bracer is what made me strong he fell for it and removed it himself. I warned him I was gonna make him hurt for what he did to me. He is the reason I am here after all." I pointed out casually.

"WHAT!?" They all yelled as I scratched the back of my head.

"Did I forget to mention that was the business me and Discord had?" I asked as they all let out groans. "Guess I did well that is why I wanted to deal with Discord. I still can't take the damn Bracer off but I can still put it on after I am done with using NM." I said as I took hold of the bracer trying to pull it off only for it to not budge. "See stuck like a nail in wood." I pointed out as I looked over at the still glowing blade in the corner of the room.

"Doesn't explain the large blade of corruption you were wielding." Twilight pointed out as I got to my feet going into the kitchen pulling a knife out of it's block.

"I'm gonna show you how I did it. I think I have a way to reverse it." I said as I switched the knife into my right hand I focused on the blade as darkness took hold of the blade corrupting it as it shifted it's form to be more to my needs. "If I focus on NM's magic I can use the dark magic to corrupt items to my design." I said as I spun the knife around in my right hand. "Now onto how I can reverse it." I took the knife still moving it between my fingers.

I stopped next to the large glowing blade tossing the knife down to the ground sticking it into the floor. I grabbed the glowing blade with my left hand tapping the knife on the hilt as the darkness came off of the blade in wisps until the blade was purified of it's corruption. "I think I have come up with the name for this blade." I said as I lifted the blade up to my shoulders I reached down lifting the knife with my right hand corrupting it once again.

"Jon what are you doi-" Twilight began as I tossed the blade up into the air before swinging the great sword right through the knife the blade seemed to drag through the ground before being moved onto my back. "JON WHAT ARE YOU DOING SWINGING THAT THING IN H-" I held up my hand stopping her before pointing down at where my sword dragged through the floor only for no damage done to the floor.

"I purified the knife as well." I pointed out as I set the large great sword against the wall before picking up the knife. "I think I will call it Solaris." I said as put the knife back. "And apparently that blade only cuts corruption which is cool but now I need a second blade I can have corrupted so I can fight other creatures... I feel as if I am going to be fighting a lot of things soon..." I said as I sat down on the couch staring at the blade. "Twilight get me a second great sword made just like Solaris."

"But why would you need a blade of corruption?" She asked as I smiled.

"Darkness hurts darkness. Light can purify that Darkness but Darkness can kill that darkness. And before you say anything about killing being wrong sometimes fear is the only thing to negate a fight." I smiled as I brushed my fingers against the face of the blade. "So get me a second blade so I may have the set." I said as I took hold of Solaris looking down at the blade with anger in my eyes. I have a lot of work ahead of me... I just got out of the hospital too god dammit.
