World of Chaos
The storm
Previous ChapterNext ChapterA tall figure left the castle. As soon as he was out of sight, a dark shape, hidden over a small hill, signals its companions with a wave. The attack had begun. After seeing the signal, two more went to the castle gates. They knocked out the guards with gas and continued on. The first one to signal them followed behind with two others. The moon was nowhere to be found.
They continued sneaking and knocking out guards throughout the castle. So far so good. The castle was dark. A faint whistling could be heard and two Pegasus flew in through the window. Black suits covered their frames. Now they were in the throne room. A light coated alicorns walked into the room followed by a pink earth pony. They seemed to be whispering to each other. They went up to the thrones unaware of the ones lurking in the shadows.
“I don't know what to do Pinkie. I believe that any attempt to escape will just cause more of Discords magic to escape. There's nothing I can do." the white alicorn with a pink mane and beautiful summer dress sighed sadly.
“But princess, there is a way." the pink pony raised a hoof for her comrades to emerge. And so they did.
"Luna!" she gasped as a black alicorn much like her emerged from the shadows.
"I am here to save you sister." night suddenly changed to day and the newly risen light danced through the window reviling many more ponies.
"Congratulations team. We have captured the castle." the dark alicorn smiled happily. The smile changed moments later.
"Ha ha ha ha. So you did, didn't you? This should be quite interesting."
Earlier...
"Report."
"She has yet to show herself. May I suggest you send out a unicorn to find her with a life detect spell?"
"Yes and thank you. Also send in Nightshade when you see him."
The dark stallion saluted and trotted off. Luna looked over to her two guests. A brown earth stallion and a blue filly sat together talking. Hopefully they wouldn't take the news to hard.
"Doctor, Colgate. I have news on Twilight. We found hoof tracks put have not seen her yet. I'm sending out unicorns now to find her. Do you need anything?" the stallion looked thoughtfully for a moment before shaking his head. Luna went back to her paperwork and planning.
".zzzzz...wh...What? Where am I?" Twilight got up and stretched, nearly falling out of the tree.
Oh dear. Did I sleep there? I should get back. Colgate and clockworks were probably worried about her. The new realization of them being aliens wasn't sinking in properly. Colgate had to have been playing. Silly filly.
She levitated herself out of the tree, shaking the leaves out of her mane. Her back was sore from leaning into the tree.
"There you are! We have been looking for you for hours!" Twilight spun around at the voice. It was Nightshade, who she had met the other day.
"Hi nightshade." she walked past him towards the trail out of the forest like nothing unusual had happened.
"And why did you run away? Your friends are seriously worried about you." at the mention of 'her friends' Twilight stumbled a bit.
"Are you okay?" night shade asked worriedly. It seemed to him that Twilight may be in a state of shock. Disbelieving shock.
"Yes I'm fine. Colgate just played a little trick on me is all and I seem to have accidentally thought that it was real. I just overreacted is all? Did you know that that filly is a good actress? She had just seemed so serious. Not too long before she earns her cutie mark!" yep that mare was in shock. Whatever the filly had said must have been major. He noticed that now Twilight was beginning the frantic stage. This would only last a minute or so before the realization that what she heard was real stage set in. Then she would most likely faint.
"Oh no! What am I going to do!?! I'm stuck here with those monsters. I miss Spike, AND the library. I miss my friends. I even miss Rainbow's constant boasting. Waaaahhh!!! I wants go home! Wait. Okay, so if Colgate was right, then that box can take us back. It travels through time and space, so we can land back there less than a minute after we left. But then, why would I want to go with them? They are aliens after all. They lied to everyone. But they aren’t going to hurt me. I have alien friends. Isn't that hilarious!?!" then she fainted like shadow had predicted. He caught her and put her on his back with a grunt. She blabbered the strangest things.
Something about aliens? Whatever. Nothing they couldn't handle. He started to gallop towards the resistance cave.
Ten minutes till the attack.
(Continued from beginning paragraph.)
"So Luna. You thought you could overthrow me. Sorry but you got your date wrong. I was never actually going to leave my castle. I went around the back." a tall figure emerged into the room. He had a face of a pony, body of a snake, leg of a dragon and goat, dragon and Pegasus wings, and horns on his head.
"Discord! But Pinkie told us you would be gone." Luna stood stiff as a nail, anger covering her face at the site of her enemy. Celestia stood by in horror. It had been over a thousand years since she last saw her younger sister. Now she would be destroyed by her evil husband.
"I fed you false information of course. I'm sure you would have noticed how easy it was to get in. Now all of your resistance will be turned into farm animals! How delightfully." now the ponies started to panic. They shot their magic at discord in a frenzy to destroy him. He simply used a blocking spell.
"Elements of night! Attack!!!" Luna yelled, but was unable to be heard from her position. She looked around and gasped when she saw Colgate. The filly had snuck around discord in an attempt to attack him. Her horn started glowing just about the same time the Doctor saw her.
"COLGATE!!!" the Doctors yell quieted down the room. It also made discord aware of the little blue filly.
"Ha! A little filly is braver than any of you! She’s smart. Hmm." Discord looked Colgate over, who was now shivering in fright.
"You’re too young to work. You need a larger build. Maybe you can be the maid, or take care of Tia. One moment." Discords eyes glowed slightly and the air shimmered around Colgate.
As they watched, Colgate slowly began to transform. Her horn grew longer, her hips wider, and her legs taller. Her mane and tail slowly grew out as well. As she transformed the Doctor ran up to Discord, only to be picked up into the air.
"Let her go!" he shouted, his eyes burning with rage. For a moment, he and discord just stared at each other.
“Such hatred Doctor. Such terrible memories. How did you manage to kill them all without going mad? “Discord grinned evilly as he taunted the Doctor.
"I do not appreciate you reading my mind Discord." Discord only smiled more.
"Make it stop Doctor! It hurts!" Colgate screamed with a sudden jerk as she stopped growing and collapsed. Her body was now in her early twenties.
“It seems your ‘niece’ is now the right age for marriage. Too bad she'll never get to. No more other than you, and your much too old. Besides. What would River song say?"
"Get out of my head!!!" the Doctor had tears streaming down his face as discord drew up memories in his mind.
"I bet Luna doesn't even know. She deserves to see that you’re such a killer."
Luna looked on. What did he mean? She might as well ask. It's not like discord would let them leave.
“What does he mean?"
"Well precious Luna. The Doctor here is lonely. No pony to share life with. Do you want to know why? Because there's no more like him. He killed his whole family. His whole race. He's the oncoming storm, the Doctor, mighty warrior. But I caught you. I got you here. No leaving. I can do whatever I want. Actually, you seem so lonely, I know some pony who will appreciate your company." discords eyes glowed again and the Doctor disappeared.
This only left an unconscious Colgate, Celestia, Luna, and the rest of the resistance.
He turned towards Luna and she started glowing. Her legs grew shorter and feathers started to cover her body. Then she changed back.
"Run sister! I will take care of your blue friend. Now run!" Tia had rammed into discord with her magic. Already she was weakening. Luna ran off, some of her soldiers made it out with her before all in the castle turned to animals.
