Chaos is not always a good thing
unlikely help
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThe blue sun continued to float in the sky as Discord continued to float aimlessly across the sky. His mind was a bit more relaxed watching the chaos unfold around him. He chuckled at a few random things here and there. Floating pieces of Jell-O that would pop into brownies, a giant T-Rex playing banjo on a hovering mountain, even the stars started to argue over who was shiniest. But after a while even they began to lose their humor to him. He sighed as he looked up annoyed.
"What’s the point of all of this chaos if I can't torment anything with it?" he said with a pout, he hated the fact that every living thing had abandoned him and his world. Sure he knew where they were but he didn't want to look desperate. He glanced over and saw a huge forest. He knew that forest very well, he had spent a good portion of his life in it and he hated it.
"....Yeah not going in there, don't need to visit home sweet home." he said annoyed rolling his eyes at the fact some ponies had fled into that forsaken forest. A thought had popped into his head with a quack. What on earth where they doing? Didn't they know how dangerous it was in their? I mean sure he was more dangerous than anything else in that forest, but the difference was that he wouldn't hurt them the way the beasts that dwelled in it would. He continued to stare for a moment before he sighed.
"Eh, not my problem, if they want to play roulette with their life's I'll let them." he said coldly with another roll of his eyes as he floated by it. He sighed as he floated around the sky bored out of his skull not caring where he went. After another few moments of floating around he glanced up again and saw he was at the edge of Ponyville again.
"Maybe I should go to Canterlot." Discord said as he thought about what would happen if he did but felt too lazy to do anything. He sighed as he looked up into the sky glade that the stars no longer taunted him. He stayed staring up at the sky for what felt like hours. He then ran his claw around in random motions. Swirls and shapes began to form in the sky as if it was his canvas as he continued to draw something random. He grinned as he let his artistic side show. That was until the moon suddenly popped out covering the world in darkness much to his annoyance, he was about to finish his drawing of
Celestia being attacked by a giant spider.
“Ahhh!” a voice yelled fallowed by a crash. Discord shot up looking around for the source of the scream, it sounded like it belonged to a female. He groaned slightly last thing he needed was to see his so called friend. He peaked his head over the cloud hesitantly; he squinted trying to make out a small blob moving away from a broken candy cane. He clicked his fingers making the sun come out again, he grinned at what he saw. Running around on his short legs was a small purple dragon with what looked like a paper bag in his arms. Discord stared at him, his eyes suddenly turning into slits as if his dragon side saw a tasty treat.
“Well, well, well looks like somedragon is lost, hehe.” he grinned evilly as he stood he flapped his wings and walked off his cloud and slowly began to float down to the ground. He grinned some more as he stood there for a moment unnoticed before laying down on the ground and slithered closer to the small dragon trying his best to not alert him of his presence.
“Being part snake has its advantages.” Discord said quietly as he hissed a little. The small dragon stopped in his tracks and looked behind him, nothing was there but a candy cane. He shrugged as he turned and jogged away again. Discord poked his head out from behind the candy cane as he looked on with a grin as he flicked his tongue out at him. He gave the candy cane a quick lick before he got down on his belly and began to slither his way to the small dragon. He got closer and closer with each passing moment, he slithered so close to the small dragon he could practically touch him. He grinned as he moved his mouth closer to his ear. He took a deep breath and exhaled gently and slowly letting out a small growl, the dragon stopped dead in his tracks. the small dragon gulped as he shook a little.
"He...hello?" he said slowly turning around.
“Hello.” Discord said in a deep voice into the young dragon’s ears. The dragon jumped up his arms and legs flaying around nearly tossing the bag as he screamed at the top of his lungs a very girly high pitched scream echoing across the land. Discord fell backward and laughed as he rolled on the ground holding his sides. The small dragon covered his mouth as he landed on the ground.
“Priceless!” Discord yelled as he laughed loudly rolling around on the ground laughing so hard he was crying. It took the small dragon a few moments before he swallowed loudly, his eyes darting between the paper bag and the laughing Discord.
“Discord?!” the small dragon finally yelled in fear after a few moments of being in shock. Discord stopped laughing and looked up with a grin.
“Yes the one and only! And you are Spike Miss Sparkles pet if I'm not mistaken.” he said with a grin as the fear in the small dragon suddenly turned into anger.
“That's number one assistant!” he hissed at the mismatched creature. Discord smiled as the small dragon growled at him a little.
“Awww that's cute, you're trying to be intimidating.” he snickered as he stood up, what bravery the small dragon had vanished the moment Discord stood up towering over him. Discord smiled as he petted Spikes head and grinned down at him
“So what is my little dragon up too?” Discord asked as he slithered around him as he continued to pet him.
“Nothing!” Spike said slapping his paw away as he tried to back away only to be stopped by Discords tail.
“Oh really? Are you sure? If you're not up to something then maybe we could do something just you and me.” Discord grinned as he wrapped his lion arm around Spike pulling him closer. Spike looked up worriedly at Discord and began to sweat as Discord rubbed his head.
“Just you and me, all alone with no one around to rain on our fun together~” Discord whispered as he ran a claw under the small dragons chin grinning down at him.
“Uhhh! Uuuh!! I need an adult! I need an adult!” Spike yelled trying to back away from Discord.
“I am an adult.” Discord said with a grin as he suddenly lifted spike by his tail. Spike yelped as he hung defenselessly in the air holding the paper bag close to his chest. Discord smiled down at the small dragon.
“Boy you are tense to need to...Relax!” Discord yelled as he threw spike in a random direction. Spike closed his eyes expecting to hit something hard but they shot open when he hit something soft and bouncy. He looked up and saw he was in the purple bouncy house floating above the ground slightly.
“See isn't this better?!” Discord yelled happily as he dived in making the whole house shake violently sending spike up into the air again before he landed face first into the bouncy house, he accidentally bit into the house and was shocked at the sweet taste that touched his tongue encouraging him to chew it a little.
“Jell-O?” he asked noting the lime taste. Discord snickered as he got a chunk of it and tossed it into his mouth. The house itself never losing its bounciness or shape.
“Of course what else would be made out of?” Discord grinned as he jumped up and down in the house. Spike just stared at him, a small smile began to creep onto his face but he quickly slapped himself mentally.
“I don't have time for this!” Spike said angrily as he tried to climb out only to have two hands grab him and pull him back.
“Oh what could be more important than getting the chance to hang out with me?” Discord asked with a grin as he held spike up like a little doll. Spike stared at Discord annoyed at the fact of being held like a small doll.
“Watching paint dry.” Spike said in a deadpan tone. Discord frowned as he let go of the small dragon. Spike fell through the house as if it was a cloud and fell to the ground with a hard thud. He groaned as he held his head.
“Oww—shoot is it ok!?” Spike thought to himself as he quickly looked inside the bag and sighed in relief.
“My my you are bold to talk back like that to me.” Discord said getting Spike's attention. Spike turned and looked back at Discord; he was glaring down at the small dragon making him nervous. Before spike could react Discord clicked his fingers making spike scream as he suddenly found himself on a pair of stilts wearing a jester hat high above the ground, a cloud slowly passing by him.
“Ahhh! Stop it!” Spike yelled in a panic, Discord laughed as flew up to him grinning.
“Why~? It's so much fun to see you like this.” Discord said with a laugh as Spike desperately tried to stay stable.
“Please stop!” Spike cried out as he held on to dear life as he lost one of the stilts still holding onto the paper bag. Discord smiled as he clicked his fingers making another hat appear on spikes head this one being a party hat with googly eyes. Spike looked down and almost lost his lunch as he saw how far up he was. Every movement he made the stilt shook violently.
“Why? I'm having so much fun!” Discord yelled with glee. Spike closed his eyes tightly as he felt tears start to poke the back of his eyes. Discord stopped laughing as he saw a few tears of fear leak out of the dragon’s eyes.
"Oh stop being such a cry baby." Discord said with a grin as he poked spikes head roughly making his eyes shoot open as he felt himself being tipped over.
"NONONONNONO! Ahhhhh! Help!” Spike yelled as he fell over the stilts disappearing the moment he let go of it, he looked down and saw the ground rapidly approaching. The air around him rapidly whistling past him.
"I guess this is how it ends." Spike said crying a bit as he closed his eyes waiting for the end to come. A bright flash on the ground appeared and Discord stood there with a grin.
"Oh no! Whatever will I do?" Discord said mimicking Rarity's "Worst possible thing ever" dramatic voice and stance.
Discord grinned as he clicked his fingers again making a little trampoline appear. Spike opened his eyes to see the trampoline just in time and landed on it only for it to explode like a balloon covering him in feathers and cotton candy bouncing him up a bit before he fell to the ground with a thud. Discord laughed as he watched the small dragon try to pull himself out of the mess that was holding him to the ground. Spike coughed and sneezed as he tried to get free from the mess.
“Stop it! It's not funny you big bully!” Spike yelled as he pulled himself out coughing a little, still trying to get the mess off of him.
“Oh hahahah your too serious my boy.” Discord said with a grin as he pulled out a firefighter’s hat out of nowhere. Spike cleaned his eyes and saw Discord standing there with the hat and a fire hose that was sticking out of a cloud.
“Wait what are you---NO NO!” Spike yelled as Discord gave him an evil grin. Discord laughed as he opened fire hosing down the small dragon. Spike splashed around on the ground as Discord hosed him down making the mess go away, but still very much angry at the situation. After a few moments Discord stopped laughing and turned off the hose, he grinned as he looked at a soggy spike slowly getting up from the wet ground.
“See.” he said as he walked over to the small dragon, he chuckled at how soaked he was and tossed the hose away making it explode in a cloud of confetti as he pulled out a giant fan and turned it on just as spike was getting back on his feet. He was pushed back down forcefully by the fans power. Spike screamed angrily at Discord as he was being dried by the force of a tornado. Discord continued this for a few more seconds before he turned off the fan and tossed it away making it fly away into the sun set.
“All better~.” Discord said clapping his hands together as his eyes sparkled, at that moment he noticed the paper bag at his feet. His curiosity peaking he reached down and picked it up. Spike stood up a little groggy and looked around the world slightly out of focus. He panicked as he saw the bag in Discords hands the moment the world went back into focus.
“Hmm what's this?” Discord asked as he began to open it, but had it snatched away from him before he could look inside. He looked up annoyed at the small dragon holding onto it as if it was a precious gem, for all Discord knew it was a gem.
“None of your business!” Spike yelled angrily holding it close to his chest, noting how shiny he was. Discord walked over to the small dragon and looked down at him glaring at Spike.
“Oh really? What makes you say it's not? This is my world now so everything and anything in it is my business.” he said as he stepped forth grinning evilly, Spike took a step back gulping. The fear in his eyes made Discord smile how he missed tormenting someone.
“Back off I said!” Spike hissed angrily but Discord could see the fear welling up inside of him. He grinned as he slammed his dragon foot on the ground, Spike yelped as he turned to run away but to his dismay he felt a tug on his leg and fell forward landing on the bag. The loud crunch was heard and spike quickly got off of it, purple liquid began to leak out of the bag. Spikes face was a mix of horror and shock as his eyes where as wide as dinner plates as his mouth hung open in shock. Discord looked at the scene his eyes going puppy dog like.
“Opsie I guess it really wasn't my business ahahahaha!” Discord laughed as he held his sides enjoying the look on the dragons face. Any innocence gone like a puff of smoke as he laughed. Oh how good it felt to torment someone again. Spike looked back briefly and noticed Discords tail was where he stepped. It took less than a second to figure out that Discord had tripped him making him break whatever was in the bag. Discord continued laughing enjoying the feel of finally making someone else miserable, but stopped when he heard...soft crying. He blinked for a moment before looking over in the direction of the sound and saw spike on his knees holding the bag in his hands, tears rolling down his eyes. Discord looked confused at the scene in front of him. Why did he stop laughing? If anything he should be laughing harder. Suddenly he felt a tug in his chest he knew what emotion it was and it was already ruining the moment. He sighed as he looked down at the dragon.
“Wow that must have been some gem you had if you’re crying over it breaking.” Discord said with annoyance as he took a few steps forward. Spike didn't move he just continued to cry shaking a little.
“Come on what could be so important that you cry over it breaking? You’re such a baby.” Discord said annoyed as he placed a hand on Spikes shoulder. Spike spun around much to Discords surprise, and jumped at him.
“YOU!” he yelled in a rage as he sunk his teeth into Discords lions paw. Discord screamed in pain as he tried to shake the dragon off.
“Get off!” he yelled as Spike bit down harder drawing blood. Discord screamed again as he felt the rows of sharp teeth bite down harder, he shook his arm hard jerking spike around, blood began to drip down his paw and onto the ground. Spike didn't let go, he didn't care if he got hurt as long as Discord got hurt too.
“I SAID LET GO!” Discord yelled angrily as he used his eagle hand to cup spikes face and quickly began to squeeze his face hard, Spike winched in pain but didn't let go. Discord noted the look in his eyes, a look of pure hatred as the small dragons eyes turned to slits. The small dragon bit down harder as he began to jerk his head tearing in deeper into Discord’s paw. Discord screamed harder as he squeezed harder and harder before Spike finally let go of him gasping loudly. Discord tossed the small dragon away making him land with a thud; he quickly turned to his paw and gripped it hissing in pain as he felt blood drip down his paw. He was pretty sure the little sucker hit bone.
“Damn it! What the heck is wrong with you!?” Discord yelled at him as he examined his paw the deep saw like pattern still bleeding. He hissed as he began to use his magic to heal his wound stinging of closing wounds always hurt no matter the magic. A growl got his attention, he turned to see Spike charging at him, Discord quickly jumped into the air the small dragon barely missing him.
“What is your problem?!” Discord yelled angrily at the small dragon as he floated just above the dragons reach, he quickly realized he was unintentionally mocking him.
“Get back down here! I'm going to tear you to pieces!” Spike yelled looking up at Discord. Discord looked down at the small dragon who tried to do anything to get to the mismatched creature. Discord watched on as the dragon got more and more desperate as he jumped and tried to snap at him.
"How can this push over turn into this?" Discord thought to himself as he snapped his fingers making a cage appear around the dragon allowing him to land safely.
“Wow I knew you lot where dangerous but didn't know you could be like this at this age, I'm impressed.” Discord said as he leaned down staring into the cage as the small dragon snarled at him.
"Let me out of here!" Spike yelled as he began to gnaw at the bars holding him. Discord watched in awe as the small dragon continued to gnaw at the bars thankful that he went with metal rather than candy cane. Spike tried to claw at him though the cage as Discord got closer to him but was just out of reach. Suddenly he backed off and rammed himself into the cage shaking it violently making Discord back off his eyes wide in shock.
"What is your problem?!" Discord yelled a bit worried at the sudden mood change in the dragon.
"I said let me out of here! I'm going to tear you to pieces!" Spike yelled still trying to get at the mismatched spirit. At that moment Discord noticed spike had tears running down his eyes. That ping in his chest hit him again as he stared at the dragon who was freely crying now.
"What the--"
Discord stared at the small dragon for a moment before looking over his shoulder at the crushed bag and quickly slithered to it. He reached down and grabbed it and the moment it got close to his face he coughed as a very strong terrible smell filled his nose.
“Jeeze what in the name of chaos where you carrying in here?!” he asked sneezed a bit at the strong smell as he opened it and poured what was in it into his hand, he wrinkled his nose as the smell got slightly stronger as a lot of broken glass and liquid fell onto his paw. Discord hated the smell of the purple liquid it was so strong that it made him cough slightly. He rummaged through the pieces of glass being careful not to cut himself and found a whole piece stuck together, it was the label. He picked it up and wiped it clean, it had a rather long warning.
“Warning blah blah kidney failure blah blah coma blah blah don't take more than 2 spoons a day.” It took Discord a moment to realize what he was holding in his hand was a bottle of really strong medicine well pile of broken glass covered in medicine. He stared at the label and he wondered something “what was this baby dragon doing with such strong medicine?” Discord's thoughts were interrupted when his ears perked up at the sound of soft whimpering. He turned to see Spike hugging his knees tightly to his chest crying to himself.
“I'm sorry...I failed....I'm sorry.” Spike whispered to himself as he cried to himself. Discord stood there for a moment before clicking his fingers making the cage go away. Discord slowly slithered to the small dragon being ready to dodge if he needed too, Spike looked up at him and Discord froze not because of fear of him attacking again but because of the look in the baby dragon’s eyes, Spikes eyes had such a deep sadness that left Discord speechless.
“I'm sorry...” he said quietly as he went back to crying, he hugged himself tighter. Discord was at a loss for words and he needed answers. He slowly walked in front of the dragon covering him in his mismatched shadow.
“What's wrong?” Discord asked nervously as he got down to eye level with the small dragon. He gave the Dragon a small poke only for his hand to be swatted away much to Discords annoyance.
“Just leave me alone, you've done enough to me already.” Spike said his voice full of sorrow as it cracked a little as he talked. Discord winched he knew that tone very well and knew how much It took to make that tone.
“Seriously what's wrong? Is it the fact I was so mean to you?” he asked tapping at spikes shoulder only to have it swatted away again.
“I said leave me alone, you've done enough.” Spike hissed at him not looking up. Discord growled down at the dragon and grabbed his tail and lifted him up with his lions paw.
“What have I done to you? I mean specifically? So far you're the one that I bothered less.” Discord hissed having enough of his attitude.
"Heck I don't think you or me have known each other for more than 2 minutes! So tell me what is wrong with you before I take my feels elsewhere!" Discord yelled angrily but quickly covered his mouth at the word "feels". Spike looked up at him his tear stained eyes not showing any emotion at all making Discord look down at him confused.
“You took away my home, my friends are not the same, and now you took away my family!” Spike yelled as a small tear ran up his face as he glared up at the upside down mismatched creature. Discord took a step back and continued to stare at him.
“You’re.....family?” Discord asked letting the small dragon down, Spike didn't even bother to look up at discord he just kept his head down if he had looked up he might have seen the look of slight fear on god of chaos eyes.
“Explain.” Discord said firmly his voice shaking a bit but quickly clearing his throat.
“Why? Why would you care?” Spike asked finally looking up at Discord. Spike looked at the creature and noticed something he looked like Twilight when she forgets what part of a book she left off at. Discord noticed this and coughed a little running his paw though his scruff of a mane before giving the small dragon a toothy grin.
“Well let's see I'm an all-powerful god of chaos, so whatever problem you have I might be willing to make go away Might.” he added coldly not showing any sigh of nervousness but still had that snaggle tooth grin. Spike recoiled a bit at how icy his voice sounded and Discord grinned inwardly, he was already in the trap. Spike looked down a bit as if in deep thought. Discord began to circle the small dragon on all four giving a bit of a throaty chuckle as he did.
“But if you don't want any help fine by me I can take my powers elsewhere.” Discord said as he ran his tail underneath the dragon’s chine before he turned to leave. Spike didn't know why but before he knew it he dashed up to him in a panic.
“Wait!” Spike yelled grabbing onto his tail stopping him from leaving, Discord grinned as he looked back at the dragon. Spike looked up at him as Discord turned and stood tall above the dragon. Spike looked away for a moment as he took a deep breath and looked back at Discord.
“Can...You....help her?” Spike asked his eyes full of hope and fear.
“Her? Who is he talking about?” Discord thought to himself but not showing the small dragon any sigh of emotion. He had to keep his cool after all.
“Maybe, who's her and what's wrong? I might feel kind enough to help.” Discord said coldly as he examined his paw as if it was the most important thing in the world at that moment. He looked down at the small dragon after a moment of silence.
“It’s Twilight...she's...sick.” Spike said as fresh tears began to form in his eyes; Discord felt his stomach turn at the mention of her name but why he couldn't figure out. He looked over at what was left of the bottle it was very strong medicine indeed and the fact the young dragon ventured out here for it made Discord nervous as he began to peace the pieces together. And a few things where answered, why was he alone? Why was he risking his safety? What was in the bottle and what was it for? All those answers caused him to feel uneasy and he hated that. He quickly regained his posture and grinned down at the small dragon, he always had a talent for putting on a mask when he wanted to hide what he was feeling.
“Oh Miss Sparkle? What has she come down with a cold? Or maybe the sniffles?” Discord asked with a chuckle not wanting to show any sign of weakness in front of the small drake
“I don't know.” Spike said solemnly, Discord winched inwardly again. This dragon was a master at feels as it seemed to Discord as the small dragon looked up his eyes already tearing up like a small puppy. A small green mutant puppy.
“What you mean?” he asked not looking away from the small dragon.
“I don't know what she has I just know she's very sick.” Spike said tearing up again as his lips formed a slightly open frown. Discord groaned slightly as he knew what was coming.
"Oh don't tell me you’re going to--
“And...And I...don't...want...loose...her...” Spike said crying covering his face with his hands as he freely cried his sobs and sniffles being a bit quite for a crying child. Discord hated when children cried they were loud when a child cries they want attention, but when a child cries silently it means they can't stop crying and are tired that got his attention the most. This small dragon has been crying a lot recently and he couldn't stop. He clung to Discord suddenly burring his face into his dragon leg as he cried. Spike didn't care anymore he just cried and cried, in a way it felt good to let it all out.
Discord felt sorry for the small dragon he knew how much it hurt to lose someone who he considered close. Discord had never felt so uncomfortable in his life, watching this baby dragon crying made him feel uneasy he wondered if he should just shake him off but he didn't and once again his head hurt due to the fact that he didn't want to make this situation any worse. After a few moments Spike let go of Discords leg slowly backing away, he was still shaking and crying. Discord watched silently with curiosity.
“She's the only family I have!” Spike yelled angrily tears running down his face.
"If...if I lose her ill...ill...be...all....alone." he said his hands shaking a lot balling themselves into fists. Discord sighed as he looked at the small dragon.
"Listen kid you need----
Suddenly Spike slammed fist into the ground cutting off anything Discord was about to say.
“I can't! I can't lose her! I can't lose my...mom!” Spike yelled angrily crying harder and harder as he continued to slam his fist into the ground. over and over again he hit the ground not caring at all as he let out growls.
"Why does all the bad things happen to me?!" he yelled his fist turning a dark purple with all the whacks he's been giving the ground. Discord watched silently as the dragon let everything out, in a way he knew that’s what the dragon needed most right now. Spike was growling and snorting as he continued to hit the ground this time drawing a little blood.
"I'm not a dragon! I'm not a pony! I'm in love with a pony and she doesn't even know I exist! I'm all alone and I didn't even know it!" Spike yelled his rage building and building.
"I'm a Freak!" Spike yelled to the infinite sky itself as he balled his fists as he fell to his knees crying. He felt so empty inside, but so free at the same time. He cursed himself though he knew Discord was long gone, he knew the monster had left him and Spike wished he didn't. He found that a bit ironic, he wished for nothing more than Discord to be gone. Yet in that moment he wished he wasn't alone. He wished he wasn't the only freak anymore. Suddenly he felt a hand on his shoulder making him shake in shock; he looked up to see Discord looking down at him neither smiling nor frowning just looking down at him.
“You need to be stronger.” Discord said firmly, Spike only sniffled a little as he spoke. Discord took Spikes hand into his lions paw and was shocked as a band aid began to wrap itself around his hand covering the cut he gave himself.
“If you’re this weak this world will tear you to pieces.” he continued as he looked down at the small drake.
“Then make it go back to normal then.” Spike said though whimper still looking up at the spirit tears still running down his face. Discord chuckled bitterly.
“You think my world is bad? My world is a kindness compared to the real world.” Discord said firmly his eyes straining as if he remembered something but shook his head of it. He glanced back down at the dragon still no smile on his goofy face.
“if your weak the real world will tear you to pieces, you need to be tough because one day you will lose something you love, it's not a maybe its fate that one day you will.” He said firmly, Spike looked up at him with sad eyes.
“One day something so awful will happen to you that you wish you didn't exist, that you would do anything to change what had happened but never will.” Discord said his eyes hard as stone as he talked.
“And you know what you do when that day comes?” Discord asked, Spike noticed a look in the spirits eyes, pain. Spike shook his head wanting to know what the old spirit would say
“You push yourself to the next day, and then the next and so on and so forth until the pain you feel just stops.” he said looking to the sky for a moment before looking back down at the small dragon.
“So be strong I am telling you this because no one else will until it's too late, and if I had one good thing to say it's this. Enjoy every Single second of it no matter how painful it can be. It will be the only thing keeping you from breaking.” Discord said his eyes glazing over slightly. Spike looked up at him shocked at the speech he just gave the little dragon. Spike knew something was up, Twilight had once said that you could learn a lot about an individual by the stories they tell.
“Did...did that happen to you?” Spike asked wiping away the last of his tears being careful of his bandaged hand. Discord didn't answer he didn't want to answer that was clear. And just like that Discord laughed as he glanced down at the drake.
“Oh come on stop being so sentimental!” Discord said happily as he poked the small dragon rather harshly on the forehead. Spike winched at the poke but couldn't help but smile a little the mood lighting up a bit.
“So where too MLD?” Discord asked with a smile, clearly changing the topic now.
“MLD?” Spike asked still winching at the harsh poke, Discord just sighed in annoyance.
“Well duh! I can't call you MLP now can't I?” Discord said with a grin as he removed his finger from Spike’s forehead. Spike sighed with relief, for two reasons. One Discord was no longer poking him and two it seemed the spirit had changed the mood of the area since spike no longer felt like crying....though he still felt annoyed.
“MLP?” Spike asked rubbing his head, Discord sighed again.
“And here I thought the mares where the dim ones.” He said rubbing his head earning a glare from spike. He looked up and got down at eye level with spike.
“Look its simple MLP stands for My Little Pony.” Discord said as seriously as he could but his face was fighting to keep itself straight, and it was losing.
“And what does MLD stand for?” Spike asked wondering if he wanted to know the answer to that, Discord grinned evilly at him.
“My Little Dragon.” Discord said his grin threatening to take the top of his head off due to how big it was getting.
“That is so not funny.” Spike said in a deadpan voice. The mood between the two has changed but Spike still felt annoyed to all Tarturas.
“Oh yes it is~” Discord said in a sing along voice. He no longer showed any signs of restraint as he laughed a bit at the small dragon.
“Stop it!” Spike yelled angrily at him, Discord chuckled evilly at him.
“Well stop wasting time then, we would have been their hours ago if you didn't stop to ask such silly questions.” Discord said with a chuckle. Spike looked down at the ground a brief moment of shame crossed his eyes, then his eyes shot open.
“Wait! Does that mean you’re going to help me?! Help her?!” Spike asked worried but eager. Discord rolled his eyes a bit but smiled.
“Well just this one time I’ll be the hero so yes Lord Discord at your service!” Discord said happily with a bow, he was suddenly wearing a blue suit with red underwear and a diamond design on the font with a screw and a ball in front of it.
“...can you take me to the library already?” Spike asked just staring at him annoyed and embarrassed. He was happy no one else was here. Discord looked at up at spike annoyed as the outfit flashed away.
“Oh OK fine! Come on lets got going already!” Discord said already getting impatient crossing his arms. Spike sighed a bit as he began to lead the way only for Discord to grab his tail pulling him back.
“What are you doing? We need to get to Twilight an—“
“Well duh I know that but it will take a few days to get to her with you walking around on your stubby legs and all.” Discord said annoyed before Spike slapped his hand away blushing angrily.
“I do not---
“Hey dragon boy ever ridden a Real dragon before?” Discord asked with a grin as he interrupted spike. Spike blinked a few times.
“…ummm no?” Spike said a bit worried. Discords grin grew.
“Would you like too?” he asked flapping his mismatched wings eagerly. Spikes eyes grew wide as he smiled a bit.
“YES! That means we can reach Twilight faster too!” Spike yelled happily as he hopped up and down eagerly. Discord smile this was something Discord enjoyed seeing in children, hope and eagerness. Oh how he would hate to ruin that......well almost.
“Of course! Now hold on.” Discord said grinning as he grabbed Spike and held him the way a super villain holds a small cat.
“Wait. I just thought of something wouldn’t it be faster if you just Tele----AHHHH!” Spike let out a girly scream as he and Discord took off into the sky at breakneck speed.
“My Little Dragon, My Little Dragon oooooh~” Discord sang out loud enough for Spike and for all he knew all of Equestria to hear.
“Shut it!” Spike yelled angrily as he clung to Discord. The duo flew off into the sky a mix of joy and terror as they fled. As they disappeared from view a hooded figure stepped out from behind a tree its black hood shining in the sunlight of the pink sun. The figure looked around a bit playing with its black saddle bag. It looked up and sighed.
“He’s gone.” It said its voice sounding a bit off but eager as its jagged horn poked out slightly as it began to glow a light green.
“Good anything else to report?”
“No your majesty the land is still covered in chaos; the ponies have fled leaving the land to ourselves.” It said looking around the area a bit.
“Good seems like he returned at the right moment.”
“When shall we clam the land?” it asked as it poked at nearby floating pie.
“Not yet he’s still the self-proclaimed ruler of this land and it would be foolish to challenge him when both the elements and the princesses have failed to stop him.”
“If I maybe so bold.” It said bowing a bit.
“You may.”
“Why do we not just talk to him? Form an alliance with him? He is spoken in our legends. So why not just let him know we are here?” it asked the voice inside its head.
“….it’s not an option at the moment I’m afraid.”
“Why not?” it asked again looking over its shoulder and noticing more hooded figures behind it.
“Because he’s too unstable and letting him know let alone him finding out where our home is would bring the chaos to us.”
“But wouldn't that---
“It would destroy us, he’s too dangerous and must never be allowed to know of us or out home or we will suffer server consequences.”
“But---
“That is final now get to work, and do not ever question me again.”
“Yes your majesty!” it said saluting as the glow around its horn faded away. The creature looked over its shoulder at the group of hooded figures that just arrived at the scene. A few of them snickering a bit, it growled at them making them stand at attention.
"Move out." it said firmly as the creature waved its hoof in a direction. The other figures moved out quickly along the grass grabbing random objects of chaos and began to drag them away slightly hovering a little, a light buzzing sound barely being heard as they gathered items. The leader of the group walked over to a spot on the field and reached into its black saddle bag and tossed out a dark green tarp onto the ground. One by one they gathered items and piled them into a small pile on top of the tarp.
“Excellent maggots.” The head creature said with a smile as it looked at the large pile.it looked up to the sky making sure the coast was clear before it cleared its throat.
"Mission accomplished, he still doesn't know we exist now get back to our home!" it yelled as they each grabbed an edge of the tarp and lifted. The leader of the group using its magic surrounding the now large make shift net.
“The faster we get back the faster we eat!” it said as they began to slowly fly away from the scene wings buzzing as they made their way to The Everfree Forest.
