Leo was just another boy with a common life, until he started to dream about one of the strangest creatures he had ever seen. That same creature transported him to a world he had never seen before and in a body that clearly was not his.

Leo had just turned 16 and passed high school, he had a life that you can consider ordinary. But one day he dreamed of a creature who was better described as outright bizarre, also having a strange and questionable sense of humor. But he just shrugged that aside.

An error on his part, as the creature who named himself 'Discord' suddenly pulled him into a world he had never seen before and with a body that was similar to his, and what did he mean by himself being an apprentice? What the hell is going on?

And why do the people all look like colorful horses?

What is Happening?

"It came out of nowhere.... I swear, I had never seen anything like it, its body was completely different, every part of it was from a different animal!"

The Man in the suit slowly put the pencil he was holding on to his chin in a thoughtful expression as he then tapped his armchair, then took the notebook beside him and went back to writing in his many lines in his note.

He turned his attention to the patient, who remained lying on the couch while looking at the ceiling.

"So Leo? What did happen more in this dream of yours? What more you want to tell me?"

He inhaled and exhaled, and then started to explain from the beginning.

It was more than after midnight, and Leo was turning off the video game, again he had lost track of time and played more than he should have, his mother was very strict with sleeping time, and not wanting to scold him I was turning everything off and already going to bed.

Slowly and quietly he walked out of the room and towards the corridor, slowly going up the stairs he walked towards his room.

Suddenly, a light came on behind him, making him freeze in place, and sighing long with disappointment, already knowing who he was.

Slowly looking back, he could see his mother, with an arrogant smile as she stood with his arms crossed in front of her bedroom door.

"What do you think you're doing, little puppy?"

She said laughing as she walked towards him.

He looked at her with a sad look while pouting and walking softly

"Time pass fast when i am playing mooooom....."

He said throwing a tantrum while holding his mother by the clothes and pulling hard.

She looked at him with a look of anger as he looked with a depressed face.

Both would stay in that exchange of looks, until the mother snickered, and the son soon following with his on, until they both burst out laughing and both hugged each other while laughing.

The Mother released him and slowly calmed down.

"Now, no joke, you stubborn big hothead, you can't be wasting time like that! Remember that you have school tomorrow!"

The Son would just roll his eyes with his mother's remark and would give her a wry smile

"C'mon mom, have i ever let you down?"

She would give a mocking smile while crossing her arms

"There is always a first time for everything."

He laughed as he walked back towards his room, while shaking his head in an negative way with an smile while raising a hand in farewell.

"G'night mom."

She chuckled as she slowly closed her bedroom door

"Goodnight my beautiful pup."

He slowly enter his room and sigh deeply, closing the door, he would walk to his closet and change clothes, putting on his pajamas.

He then took one of the blankets from the closet and lay on the bed, slowly lying down and covering himself.

And reaching out, he pressed one of the buttons on his lamp, turning off the light and leaving his room in enormous darkness, pitch black.

Slowly he settled on his bed, entering a comfortable position, and he closed his eyes, falling asleep.

"Owwwwn, what a beautiful thing, all snugly snugly with your dear mommyyy~."

He then opened his eyes when he heard these voices, and quickly looked around, and his eyes would widen.

He found himself still in that huge dark pitch scenario, managing to see nothing within a hand's distance, and even so, managing to see himself completely, still in his pajamas and floating on nothing, in that dark and confusing scenario.

"W-who is there??!"

The Creature in the darkness seemed to be amused by the teen's outburst, laughing in his deep, high-pitched voice while looking at the confused teenager, who looked at all sides in total awe and confusion.

"Awww child child child, it hurts me to know that my beauty is not recognizable."

The Creature spoke in a sad tone of voice while slowly, he could see something approaching in all that darkness, and suddenly, with a snap of fingers, he appeared, it was one of the most bizarre, scary and confusing things he had ever seen.

It was what looked like a goat-headed creature, a hawk's claw hand, and a lion's.

He also had a different type of wing than the other, one was what looked like a bat and the other like a bird, his long body looked like a snake, but he had a fur that reminded him of an eagle.

His tail was what looked like something like a dragon's scales, with a feather tip at the end, his legs were one of a goat and the other of a lizard.

His head was as chaotic and strange as his body, in his goat's head, one pupil was smaller than the other, its horns were one of what could be of a deer, and another one he couldn't decipher, being completely weird.

The back of his head had hair that differed from the rest of his body, reminding him of a zebra.

All of this formed a horrifying creature, which he would laugh at the absurdity that it was, if it weren't so big and scary.

He with a smile showing his huge lonely fang, would explode out of nowhere confetti from his hands while he would pose.

"Tadaaaaaa! Its me! The almighty and charming DISCORD!"

When he declared his name, many cheers and applause would come practically out of nowhere, making the teen completely confused the more it happened, absolutely astonished by everything that was happening.

"Thank you Thank you! it is an pleasure to be here!"

He kissed and waved to his audience of imaginary fans while slowly walking towards him, confetti rising and falling from the air, while spotlights that came out of nowhere stood out when he arrived in front of the completely dumbfolded teenager.

He pulled him into an embrace with one arm while poking him in the belly with his free hand.

"We both will have an great time!~"

He said with a malicious smile as he winked at him.

Leo didn't understand anything that was going on, but one thing he could see easily.

That hybrid would be a pain in the ass

Hi! I'm here with another story! Inspired by a friend! I hope you like it, this genial idea of her gave me a huge inspiration to come with this, where I plan to continue! Thank you and peace!

Learning Chaos?

"WHAT'S HAPPENING??? WHAT AM I???? WHY IS THIS HAPPEN- OW!"

Discord was facepalming while the boy ran in circles and hit face-first a tree, falling on his back on the ground, getting birds flying around on his head.

"I Have never seen somebody more mature! Running around and screaming instead of asking the source...."

He said in a sarcastic tone while he was with his arms crossed with one of his fingers poking his own head.

Leo quickly got up and walked angrily towards Discord immediately after hitting his eye on him.

"YOU!"

Discord seemed to smile when he saw that he had finally been noticed after watching the young man run in circles for 15 long minutes, he opened his arms and posed.

"ME!"

Leo seemed to ignore the god's antics and would point to himself.

"What have you done to me??!"

The god looked him up and down while poking his mouth while making a pout pretending to be thinking deeply until he snapped his fingers and raised his index, he smiled as if he had discovered something.

"I Know!"

He said approaching the boy and with a malicious smile and poking his belly. "I did, YOU a favor."

He looked at him and looked at himself, having become practically a younger version of Discord. "FAVOR??! You turned me into an abomination!"

Discord gasped, doing a dramatic pose while placing the back of his hand on the head and the other on his chest while speaking in a mega-dramatic tone. "Abomination?? How can you say that about my vast beauty??!"

He just looked at him with an expression of 'Are you serious?' With one of his hands almost pulling his hair out in anger.

"Why did you do this??? I was fine in my normal life! You could have cloned yourself or something!"

Discord just looked at him with a sadistic smile, suddenly disappearing with a 'POP' sound, surprising the young man, and then suddenly appeared flying and surrounding the smallest with his body while laughing and facing him. "Why do people do things? Why do what I do?"

He would say with a sadistic smile as he ran his hand over his beard under his chin.

"Because...."

He spoke in a darker tone as he brought his face closer to Leo who in fearing the figure in front of him, slowly flinched away in response in response.

"FOR THE COMPLETE AND HUGE BOREDITY REASON!"

He then said, jumping backward with a huge smile, throwing his arms into the air while several balloons with letters forming the word 'boredom' floated above him.

Leo was just even more confused, raising an eyebrow at that.

"Wha....?"

He wrapped his arm around Leo and raised a fist in the air showing confidence.

"EXACT MY CHAOS COMRADE!"

He then pushed Leo into an invisible hole that had came out of nowhere, making him fall into a void out of nowhere, he fell screaming all the way down.

Discord appeared falling beside him laughing at Leo's despair.

"You will help me to get me out of boredom! It will do the divine service of entertaining me!" He said in a laying down position while they were falling.

"You should be honored."

He said while snapping his fingers, making them both suddenly fall onto a huge pillow, Leo fell face first but regained his composure, still completely confused about what was going on, Discord just getting more more entertained.

"You see, doing everything chaotic is fun!"

With another snap of the fingers, everything started to shake, and a huge chair came up from the floor under the cushion, and she started immediately walking, yes, WALKING, while all the empty scenery they were was starting to change, he would see a forest if forming next to a beautiful stream.

That immediately changed, the trees suddenly turned themselves into sweet cottons! And the sudden little stream would turn brown, probably chocolate, and it would start to... Rain... just the opposite way it was supposed to rain.... Literally flying and entering in a brown cloud.

The end of the 'stream' flew into a cloud! What the fuck!

He watched everything happening with one of his eyes twisting, trying to process everything that happened, while Discord laughed like never before.

"All of this is a beauty! And with you, we can do a million and one more things!"

He just looked at Discord in shock as if he had grown two heads (He could do it), he put a hand on Leo's shoulder while smiling.

"Together!"

He would say while laughing.

'What the hell is happening...?'

Let's say that Leo's introduction to Discord... was not normal....

Magic.... Leo never expected that something like this existed in any way, but there it was, something that sent him there and changed him completely, imagine his reaction when everything he thought that was nothing but a dream proved to be just a lie that he kept repeating to himself, magic existed, it was no longer part of a fairy tale.

He doesn't need to sleep, the body doesn't obey the laws of physics anymore, shit, It doesn't obey any more imaginable laws! I can do whatever I want to be possible!

The first few days may have been difficult, Discord can be many things, but a good teacher? That he is not, but he is not a bad person, just too childish for someone who is said to have millennia carried on his back.

He showed himself to be very friendly and showed him how his new body worked and how his chaotic magic worked, he had become a god who was fueled by the chaos caused in the world.

Did a guy stumble? Is a city in a mess? Did anarchy arise? Anything that put an end to the peace and quiet of others brought more strength to himself.

It is clear that he questioned and completely refused to use these powers, as he could live with himself for being literally a bloodsucker from all the problems caused to others, they were powerful enough to be considered deities, Why not use this power to good? Leo refused.

Discord surprised him by giving him a lesson he never expected that such a friendly being would be able to bring.

He no longer had his trivial smile, his stupid composure was gone, and his aura seemed dark.

"You really are a little kid to imagine that the whole world spins on the 'Good' triumphing. Blah!" He let out a groan as he threw his hands up.

"Good, Bad, it's so easy to judge and point out mistakes, but to correct them? Nobody knows how! The answer is very simple!" He would say with a forefinger.

"YOU CANNOT CORRECT SOMETHING INCORRIGIBLE!" He said laughing.

"People think that the Good is always the 'light'! Goodness! Happiness! Creativity and yadayadayada, what they do not realize is that they would be nothing without the 'darkness'."

He says while circulating Leo, he found himself more and more engaged with what Discord said, being unaware and fascinated.

"Think of the world as if it were a river in a small forest, Order and Harmony keep our beloved river in its common rhythm and course, always following in a zigzag sequence, the few stones are the small problems they encounter, but completely manage to surpass." He says as he stops behind Leo, placing a hand on his right shoulder and the left-hand shows the 'river' that the boy looks at with interest.

"This is where Chaos enters, like a huge rain cloud that would flood the river, creating the complete confusion and disorder of the previously controlled river, a state in which behavior and events are not controlled by anything, being completely random, just the state of the universe before there was any order and before stars and planets were formed. " He says as he shows a huge rain cloud appearing over the river, completely overflowing and flooding everything around.

"And after the rain had passed, the river had returned to its normal size and course, giving space for more fertile soil, new trees to grow around, and more new plantations." He dispersed the illusion shown in his hand and started walking around Leo with his hands behind his back, smiling when he saw the realization on the little boy's face.

"Do you see now Leo? Chaos and disorder is the only thing that makes Harmony and peace look so sweet, what makes learning so important, and how it inspires creativity, putting problems in front of the previously untested, we forced them to get out of their own bubbles!" He says with a sincere smile as he raises an index finger in front of him.

"Now! What do you think about creating a lollipop Forest? You think you are up for the challenge?"

Yep, no matter how smart he is, he's still a Dumbass.

Why my powers are so weird?

"Come on! A little more! Put more strength into it, kid! Are you a god of chaos or a sack of potatoes??" Discord complained as he shook his glass of milkshake that he had sipped while straightening up on his beach bed.

"I AM GODDAMN TRYING! BE QUIET!" Leo shouted back as he tried again to work his magic again. Snapping his finger again and resulting in just another failure.

Okay, he didn't expect all of this to be so difficult, Discord makes it all seem as easy to do as breathing. Flying, using magic, and materializing things were insanely complicated to do, let alone understand! He came to respect Discord a little more for that.

Just a little.

What he could do with a few snaps of his finger was absurd, he could change everything in reality as he pleased. Everything material, even living beings! (Well... Just looking at his body it was easy to see that this is pretty obvious.) Not to mention changing his gender too...

The god made a point of making him feel as embarrassed as possible....

"Leoooo~" Discord called out to him in a tone that clearly called for confusion. He let out a grunt and turned to face his headache.

"The hell do you want to dis-" his mouth dropped to the floor when he saw a very attractive female version of Discord walking towards him.

"Do you like this Leooo?~" Discord(?) asked sensually as he struck a pose showing himself.

"EWWWW WHAT THE HELL DISCORD???"

He snapped his fingers in frustration. Each time doing it harder and even faster

Sitting upside down in a classroom where everything floated while Discord tried to teach him about such chaotic magic. In theory, he already had a good idea about how to grasp magic.

But when did he try to put it into practice?

"BOI" Discord called him once again, now behind him with a red tattoo over his face for some reason. "YOU NEED TO BE BETTER!"

"I am trying goddammit! You could help me instead of throwing off shitty game references!" Discord just scoffed as he undid the tattoo and flew closer to Leo.

"Jeez aren't you a rain of sunshine? What's getting your panties in a bunch?"

"This!" He exclaimed as he snapped his fingers while only explosions of smoke occurred in the direction he was pointing his hand. "Why isn't it working? I've been trying for hours and nothing works!"

Discord just let out a dramatic sigh as he threw his head back in frustration.

"What part of CHAOS didn't you get?" This brought confusion to Leo.

"Well, we are the gods of it or something. What about it?"

"You didn't get it! You are trying to organize your thoughts and make something normal!" He explained, crossing his arms in frustration. "I use the finger snap cause it looks cool! But It isn't how you properly do it ye dingus!"

"But then how do I do it??" Leo asked clearly even more confused.

"First, stop thinking about it." Discord said.

"Wait wha-"

"You are trying to understand your powers, that's the first thing you are doing wrong! Stop trying to rationale something irrational! Or find logic something illogical! Go with the flow bro!" He out of nowhere was now wearing a hippie outfit as he floated peacefully.

"Go... With the flow...?"

"Yeaaaah Homie, let it come naturally." He said while making hippie hand gestures.

"Come naturally..." He said while looking at his 'hands'. Ignoring the childish snicker coming from Discord with the word 'come'.

He let out a sigh and took a long breath. Okay, he could do that, it wasn't difficult. It was just a matter of wanting it to happen, not thinking too much, and just doing it. He closed his eyes, and as instructed without thinking twice, snapped his finger.

This time a glow and sparking sound came out as a result, and when he opened his eyes he found in front of him a forest of... broccoli.

"Okay... That's weird..." He thought aloud as he inspected the 'trees'.

"Not weird enough. But that's a start." Discord commented as he appeared out of nowhere next to him. It didn't even scare the boy anymore because he was so used to the god doing sudden and inexplicable things out of the blue. "But it seems like this big is still a little too complicated for you for now, let's try something different." The same commented as he pressed his chin with one hand and holding his elbow with the other, and a third scratched his head.

Wait, a third??

"Alright! I got it!" His three hands raised their index fingers along with a light bulb that appeared on his head. "Make a chair!"

"A chair...?" Leo asked with his head to the side in confusion. "That seems... Very simple..."

"Heh." The chaos god commented with a shrug. "It's the best idea I thought of at the moment. Just go ahead my little dwarf and puffa-lo a good-old chair."

"Hey! I'm a kid not a midget!" Leo puffed his cheeks and pouted.

"Same size. Just do it little champ!" Discord exclaimed with a Nike cap and waving a fan finger.

"Alright alright!" He said with a scoff as he turned his back to the eccentric creature. By once again snapping his fingers and using his magic to create....

Concrete?

He was in total disbelief when he saw a concrete chair appear in front of him. It immediately sprouted spider-like legs and ran away in a hurry, leaving Leo gaping as he watched his creation run away.

"What the fu-"

Discord howled with laughter as he appeared again next to Leo and gave him a one-handed hug. "THAT'S WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT!" Literal rivers of emotional tears flowed from him as he shielded his eyes with his other hand. "It's so beautiful!! I am so proud!!"

Leo actually felt sheepish with how genuinely happy Discord actually sounded with seeing Leo pull some random bullshit with his powers. It was so weird that he didn't know what to feel about it, but for Discord it seemed like he just created a Mona-Lisa or something.

"Hehehe..." He laughed with a blush while scratching the back of his head in embarrassment. "Thanks, Teach... i guess?" Of course, Discord would find something amazing with such a weird and bizarre thing he made.

This comment made Discord completely freeze and his body stiffen.

'Oh shit, did I say something wrong??' Leo thought nervously as he flinched as he noticed the hybrid slowly turn his face towards him.

Only to reveal massive sparkling eyes and a huge smile. "Did you just call me... 'Teach'??"

"Uuhh... Yeah...?" He responded with a sweatdrop upon seeing the chaos god's childish yet genuine happiness in front of him.

"Could you repeat that?" Discord asked with a recorder in his hand.

"Oh fuck off!" He complained with an angry mark on his forehead as he crossed his arms.

Discord just chuckled in response. "Jeeeeez kid, do you kiss your momma with that mouth?" He questioned humorously while waving his hand as if swatting away a bad smell.

"I wouldn't be cursing if you didn't annoy me so much you damn goat man!"

"Love ye too my little apprentice!"

Author's Note

3 goddamn years in wait but here it is! I will be 100% honest, I wasn't planning to continue writing this, but today I randomly was reading my stories all over again and when I did with this one I got interested on it once again and out of nowhere I started writing and I finished the chapter in a few hours. So here it is!

Small I know, but now this got in my radar again like my other two stories. So yeah, expect me to get back and actually give this little baby a plot! As it for now feels like a massive non-sensical shitpost, but this is Discord we are talking about so it's in brand with our favorite little bugger. And I think y'all waited enough so have this little chapter! Peace!
