Canterlot Barracks, 5 days later
Aro was pulling up some weights as the other teen Centaurs and Gargoyles were working out as he looked around and didn’t see any of the Centaur & Gargoyles kids around his age. “Where are the other Centaurs & Gargoyles?” Asking Aro as the only Gargoyle Adult flew to him.

“Apparently, some educators thought to take them to give them an education.” She said as Aro raised his brow.

“What? Why?” he asked as the only ♀ Centaur adult appeared.

“They thought they would stop their violent ways and replace them with the ponies’ ways of friendship.” He explained which Aro snarled.

“That princess vowed to not rope us in for her purpose.” He spoke.

“Apparently, it wasn’t her.” Said the ♀ Centaur Adult.

“It was a male unicorn.” Said the ♂ Gargoyle adult. “Not the sibling to the purple Alicorn, a different unicorn who is considered their head adviser of education.” She spoke. “The unicorn said that he cannot allow the youth like yourself to live life without reading or writing.” Aro raised his brow.

“Lone taught me to read and write. Mostly insults and swears about Scorpan and ponies.” He said as his ears lowered.

“We all miss your brother but until he finds a way to escape our kingdom, we must not have any contact with him for not only our safety but his.” Said the ♀ Adult Centaur.

“His grandfather is the reason for Scorpan’s ire. Scorpan refuses to allow his bloodline to exist and live.” Said The ♂ Adult Gargoyle.

“Will you tell Lord Tirek about Lone’s Grandfather?” he asked as they both looked at each other.

“We will…” they said, “But not when there is a weasel of a chaotic nature nearby. He’ll betray his companions, again for doing something stupid.”

“I heard that!” Yelled an annoying voice as they turned to the wall to see a Draconequus blending the area.

“ITS DISCORD!” screamed Aro which got the other teenagers' attention.

“KILL HIM!” Yelled the Adults as Discord ran away in fear as weapons and a bust of Twilight Sparkle were thrown at him, since Pinkie accidentally revealed to them that he used Tirek and the others to boost Twilight's confidence, they won’t show any mercy towards him and if he harms them in anyway, his fragile trust between Twilight, Celestia and Luna will be permanently shattered.

“Ugh! I hate being leashed by my promises.” He complained as he looked away to see something afar. “Hmm?” he narrowed his eyes and smirked “~Loophole.” He sang as he snapped his fingers.

Lone’s Farm
Lone was in the pond helping Black Warrior Bunny trying to swim with a green onion bodyboard. “Okay… if I remember from the books about swimming from my home, you kick your legs to push forwards and scoop with your hands or paws.” He said, Warrior Bunny looked confident in swimming. “Good thing we plugged up the hole, so the piranhas won’t come in.” He said as the other bunnies watched Warrior “Also, when you leveled up, you got too confident, and body slammed in the pond.”

Flashback
Lone noticed Black Warrior Bunny floating in the pond like a corpse “WARRIOR!!!” Screamed Lone as Hubby caught Wifey who fainted in horror as the other bunnies looked horrified.

End of Flashback
Lone was out of the water with Warrior “You’re lucky that we got you out of the water before you became fish food.” Said Lone as Mage smacked Warrior upside the head while the other bunnies were relaxing and playing in the water. Lone looked at them and smirked. “I wonder how Neo is doing. I guess making money to get him a higher rank to carry more of the cherry tomatoes and blueberries.” He said as he looked at the crops. “Until we grow more of the other crops, we’ll stick with what we have.” Lone looked up (“What I would have given to escape this hole.”)

The 38th Floor
Neo was walking around, searching for his customers’ base. “Now… where are they?” Wonder Neo “I thought this is the way to their bases?” Said Neo as he looked around “Perhaps the other creatures in this floor made them find a new base. The spiders on this floor are poisonous.” He said as he looked at his rucksack. “My rucksack can only hold up to 1500 Cherry tomatoes and 10 baskets of blueberries. If I get up to 1000 Dungeon Coins, I can upgrade rank to show them who my supplier is and make this hold more than it can hold.” Said Neo as he remembered his hometown. “I can’t wait to shove my success into that gold digger and spoil brat’s faces.” He said as he walked around to continue his search for customers.

5 Minutes Later
Neo continued to look for his customers “Where are my customers?” he said as he entered a large clearing.

*RUSTLING*

Neo’s ears perked up as he turned to a large bush as some creatures came out, the same and different creatures he met. “MEOW!” he yelled in shock as he was on all fours as they all calmed him down.

“Sorry!” said Pierce “We’ve been searching for you all over the floor for days!” he explained.

“Really?” he asked.

“Yes!” Said the female Minotaur. “Your ware was so good and helped many of my friends who want them!” She said happily as some gathered near him.

“I got myself a girl because of those tomatoes!” Yelled a ♂ Dragon who looked arrogant and prideful which got some creatures to get annoyed by him.

“Ignore the fool.” Said a ♂ Deer. “Now… May we know how much of you have? Because we wish to buy them.” He said which made Neo a bit uncomfortable since this is his 1st time that he got a crowd that wanted to buy his ware. Neo climbed on a rock as he pulled out his packsack and placed it beside him.

“Now everyone! I know you all wish to partake in buying it, but I can only carry a limited amount of my supplier’s crops, and he’ll need time to grow enough for me to sell to you. So please… Come back here every 10 days, clear of monsters. I hope you all understand.” Said Neo as some understand but one dragon didn’t like it.

“WHAT?! WHY SHOULD I WAIT?!” Said the dragon who got himself a girlfriend.

“Simple, you don’t want the other adventurers angry.” Said Neo as he turned to the crowd of adventurers who were armed and looked pissed at by the angry dragon “Also, if I ban you from buying from me. Your girlfriend will break up with you, meow.” He explained which scared him.

“Uh… I’m sorry.” Said dragon as he had to calm down as he listened to what Neo had to say as he pulled out the ware as he started selling.

“Give me 100!”

“I’ll take a basket of blueberries!”

“Give me 400!”

10 Minutes Later
“Sold out again…” Said Neo in shock (“I have regulars who are loving Lone’s crops. Next rank will happen in a few months.”) Neo placed the money in the back as he was prepared to leave.

“(Female voice) Uh… Excuse me?” Neo turned to see a pony shining like crystal “Hi, little kitty.” She said Neo looked confused.

“Kitty, meow?” The Crystal Mare smiled and turned to her female companions.

“They look alike, don’t they?” Said the Doe Medic

“Yep! You’re right.” Answered the Crystal Mare which made Neo look uncomfortable.

“Uh… My name is not Kitty. It's Neo, Meow.” He answered, which made the Crystal Pony turn to him in shock.

“Oh! I’m sorry Neo. My name is Spark.” She introduced herself as Neo looked at her.

“Do I remind you of someone, meow?” he asked as Spark nodded.

“Yes, my pet cat who I missed so much.” She said Neo looked confused but sympathized with her.

“I’m sorry for your loss.” Said Neo “I must go now, meow. Please excuse me.” He said as Spark turned to him.

“Wait!” Yelled Spark as she pulled out a small package “Would you like a treat?” she said which Neo looked at her

“Treat? Uh… I’m sorry but I prefer grilled fi-” Before Neo could say what he eats, Spark pressed the package and squeezed out some goop as it entered Neo’s mouth which made him love it. “What is this!?” He grabbed it and continued to lick up the goop “So… Delicious!” Neo continued to lick it all up as he stopped in shock “Oh! I… Ate it all up… I’m sorry.” He said as Spark petted him.

“That’s alright. I wanted you to have it.” She said while pulling more of them “In fact, you can have more if you don’t mind if I take your picture with me?” she said as Neo looked at her

(“She wants me to take a picture with her. … I guess there is no harm in doing that. Since its not tower coins, she is after.”) “Okay, but no asking for back deals.” He said Spark and him got their picture taken. Neo waved goodbye as Spark pulled out the picture and smiled.

“I never saw someone who brought so many cat treats to the tower.” Said a ♀ (Reform) Changeling.

“Yes, if only the tower didn’t limit our supplies.” Said a ♀ Yak. “We would not need to buy from little merchants.” She complained.

“Everything isn’t fair.” Said Spark. “But… the unfairness of these things can bring some wonderful surprises.” She said, looking at the picture of her with Neo giving the victory sign.

Lone’s Farm
Lone was relaxing near the pound as the other bunnies started to play with the marbles Neo left with Lone. He taught them how to play as they enjoyed it. “Aahhh… we need something sweet.” He went to his sack to pull out his glass bottle to see that he was low on honey “Hmm… I’m a bit low on honey. Better see if PHB can give me some more.” He looked at the hive which had gotten a bit larger and started to have those towers that castles had. “I wonder what happened to her. She hasn’t been out since she moved in.” Said Lone as he noticed something flying around the hive. “Huh?!” Lone narrowed his eyes to see clearly and saw 7 little versions of the PHB around the hive, collecting pollen.

BABY POISONOUS HONEYBEES

“No… way…” Said Lone in shock “PHB has babies?!” He yelled while all the other bunnies turned to see the hive and dropped their jaws.

“PII…” They all said. Lone looked at the bunnies as they looked at him.

“Well… that explains why she didn’t come out of her hive. She was laying eggs inside her hive and making sure they hatch.” Lone realized as he turned to the bunnies. “We should welcome them.” He explained, “It’s the right thing to do.” He said as he went to pick some flowers from the cherry tomatoes and carrots. “Hey!” yelled Lone as the baby PHBs turn to the sound to see Lone holding some flowers with Warrior & Mage. “We wish to welcome you to the neighborhood.” Said Lone which made them fly towards Lone “I hope you like this-” he saw the baby PHBs’ eyes were red and pointed their stingers at them which made the other Farmer Bunnies flee in fear as Warrior & Mage were prepared to fight but Lone stopped them “Don’t fight! We’re against an army of infants! If they were Centaur and Gargoyle infants, we would lose some fingers.” he screamed as it got the attention of someone in the hive.

“BEEE!!” The baby bees stopped and turned to the voice, along with Lone, Warrior, & Mage to see a beautiful creature they had never seen. A humanoid bee with a glowing pattern floating over her head that resembles a crown for a queen with 4 large wings.

“In the name of my grandfather, are you… the PHB that chose to move in with us?!” He yelled as the humanoid bee smiled.

Poisonous Queen Honeybee

“BEE~” She said as Mage & Warrior dropped their personal items in shock with dropped jaws.

“No… Way…”

Poisonous Honeybees
A carnivorous insect monster that hunts prey with its poisonous stinger. Poison Honey Bees only eat meat if there is no source of pollen.

The Poisonous Honeybee was inside her hive, shaking and trembling as she unleashed a screech soft enough for no other creature could hear her. Her entire exoskeleton body cracked as she shed her entire body to reveal a larger, humanoid bee.

The Tower Administrator’s Lair
The Black Dragon was writing on a parchment with a ballpoint pen. “Apparently, after watching the Poisonous Honeybee who became friends with the Tower Farmer, she grew a bit larger & fatter due to consuming nectar from the flowers of his crops and began to release strong pheromones. In conclusion, This Poisonous Honeybee gained intense hatred from her queen & fellow drones for one possible fact; she is capable of reproducing and evolving into a Queen.” She spoke while writing as she placed the parchment in a box for her family. “Oooo… my grandmama and grandpapa always wonder about Poisonous Queen Honeybees on how they came to be! They’ll be so… jealous of me~!!!” She sang while twirling “I discovered how they came to be! Now they won’t see me as an uneducated and lazy dragon!” She said “All thanks to my Tower Farmer!”

Lone’s Farm
Lone pulled out the flowers and showed it to Queen PHB “Congratulations on your transformation. I know it’s a bit of an odd timing, but these are for you.” He said, Queen PHB looked at the flowers and smiled.

“BEE!!!” She yelled happily, flew towards Lone and hugged him. “BEEE!!! BEEE!!!” The babies PHBs looked at each other, realizing that the creature their queen is showing affection is a friend. They all flew to him and latched on to him with love.

“Hey… I like you all too.” He said the other bunnies got friendly with the baby bees.

A Few Days Later
Lone was sleeping peacefully in his green onion leaf bed “PII!”

*GROAN*

“PII!!!” They all shook Lone; he got up and looked at them.

“What’s wrong?” He said as he looked up “I was up during the Blue Moon and decided to sleep.” He said as he got up on his hooves. “What did you need me to do?” He said as they all led him to the carrot patch to discover 2 surprises: 2 blue carrots. “No… way…” He said as he looked at them “You wanted me to harvest them, so they become ripe enough to eat.” He said as Hubby looked away.

“PII…”

“Alright.” He said as he grabbed them by the stems and yanked them out. “They're as big as my rusty dagger.” He said as he looked to see what it was “Agility Carrots?” He said as he checked their information on them.

[Agility Carrot (Imbued with the energy of The Blue Moon)] x2
Grown in the dungeon, the carrot is full of nutrients and taste. The Blue Moon energy has further enhanced flavor. Agility increases permanently by 0.005 when consumed.
Grown by: Lone, Farmer
Freshness Time: 45 Days
Level: E+

YOUR OCCUPATIONAL XP WILL GROW SIGNIFICANTLY.

YOUR [HARVEST] SKILL HAS REACHED LV.2

YOUR FAMILIARITY WITH [HARVEST LV.2] WILL GROW SIGNIFICANTLY. x2

YOU HAVE EARNED 70 XP. x2

“Level E+… I guess when my [Harvest] skill leveled up, the quality of the crop increased. Maybe all my crops’ quality will increase when [Harvest] level increases.” He noticed the bunnies were staring at him. “Here you go, the 1st carrots I harvested. Enjoy.” He said as he handed to Hubby & Wifey “Can’t wait for the other carrots.” He said as they all cheered and had Sickle Bunny cut enough slices for them. All the bunnies clapped for him and Lone. “Hmm…” He looked at the crops “When we’ll harvest them, I’ll need your help for an idea.” He said which confused Sickle.

“PII?”

“Trust me.” He said as he went to check more crops with Blue Moon energy. “5 blue Cherry Tomatoes.” He said he sent one of them to the Tower Administrator as at the other 4 to strengthen his magic by 0.2. “I wonder…” He shut his eyes as he focused his magic as it started to form at the tips of his horns. He opened his eyes and smiled. “I can’t wait to fire magic to decapitate Scorpan’s guards.” He said as he made it go away.

“MEOW!!!” Lone turned to see Neo was backing away in fear from the baby PHBs who were prepared to sting him to death. “WHERE DID THESE OTHER POISONOUS HONEY BEES CAME FROM?!” He screamed in fear, Lone stopped them.

“Calm down! He’s part of the family!” Yelled Lone which got them to let him go “Ugh… I hate to imagine if they met Aro.” He said as he turned to Neo “I see you’re back with results?” He said, Aro pulled out another sack of coins.

“You better believe it!” He said he handed the coins to Lone. “Also, I told our customers when to come for the tomatoes and blueberries every 10 days.” He said which made Lone look at him.

“Hmmm… so it would give not only us enough to sell but for us to eat. Clever.” He said as he gave Neo his share.

“Also, I’m planning to buy myself a larger rucksack to carry more cherry tomatoes and blueberries.” Said Neo as Lone looked at his crops.

“Uh… Wait for a few more weeks.” Said Lone “To have more than we have for ourselves.” He explained as Neo nodded and pulled out that cat treat, he got from a crystal pony adventurer. “What… is that?” Asked Lone, Neo looked scared.

“Uh… a pony that was sparkling like crystals in the sun.” He said which made Lone narrowed his eyes at him “Don’t worry, she didn’t ask for coins or cherry tomatoes. All she wanted was to take a picture with her.” He explained as Lone raised his brow.

“Why?”

“Because I was cute!” Said Neo happily, Lone looked disgusted

“Cute? I don’t know what that word is, but I find what she did for you suspicious.” Said Lone “What if she plans to place a tracking spell on you to find out where you’re going and find the farm?” Neo waved his paw.

“That cannot happen.” Said Neo “For adventurers like her, she has to use the Waypoint, but she can’t.” Said Neo.

“Waypoint?” Said Neo

“It’s a large crystal that teleports any creature to the floor they’ve been to.” He explained “There’s one on every floor and to get here, she must make a physical contact with it and anytime she enters the Black Tower, she can go there without climbing all the way back up.” Said Neo as Lone looked at him.

“So… what floor are we on?” Asked Lone.

“The 99th Floor.” Neo answered which made Lone turn to him.

“What…” He said in horror Which frightened Neo.

“Uh… you didn’t know?” Asked Neo, who watched Lone march to the middle of the hole above him. Lone stood tall on his hind legs and looked at the hole.

Neo and the bunnies backed away in shock as they saw Lone unleashing a massive beam of magic. From around the hole, the massive red bear saw it, some glowing eyes in a forest with a dark aura and eyes in a plain of mud. Even the Tower Administrator's Floor.

“???”

"What was that?"

Outside of Canterlot, Few Days Earlier
Discord was lynching like a caterpillar in the woods and wore flowers over his body. “Since I can’t do anything to the centaurs & gargoyles in Canterlot… perhaps any spies from Scorpan will give them the trust I deserve the forgiveness I deserve and hope they dropped about ‘I pretended to be Grogar’.” He said to himself as he continued to look for that centaur spy. He smelled the air and gagged a bit as he crawled to see the same Centaur Spy relaxing near a fire and the wood for it was the head of a Timberwolf (Remember: it’s the giant wolf made out of wood, not the actual animal).

“This is a waste of my time. I can easily capture them with ease, but I have been ordered to spy on the princess. If only I could do it my way.” She complained.

“I don’t think so.” She turned around and prepared to fight.

“Who is there?” She said as flowers grow revealing Discord in a gardener’s outfit.

“Just a humble gardener.” He said he was holding a plant that was honking. The centaur looked at Discord.

“Are you… Discord?” She said as he looked prideful “The disgrace Lord of Chaos that is now an obedient pet to the Alicorns?” She said as Discord’s face literally fell off his head.

“Is that what your kingdom thinks of me?!” He said as the female centaur nodded.

“You haven’t become what your title is. You obey them for anything and will do anything for them to forgive you for your sins.” She said Discord snapped his fingers to get rid of his outfit.

“Oh whatever. I think capturing a spy will make them forget I pretended to be Grogar.” He said as the female centaur looked horrified.

“You did what?! You dare to pretend to be the Father of Monsters who gave life to all monsters? You deserve death!!!” She yelled as Discord pulled a hand puppet of her.

“I’m a spy… I’m tough and strong… BLAH BLAH BLAH!!!” He said while mocking her.

“How those ponies let you live is beyond my sanity?” She questioned.

“Anyway, you’re now under arrest.” He said and was about to snap his fingers, but his hand was trembling “Huh?” He said as he tried his other hand but couldn’t and his tail but still he couldn’t. “What the…” He said as he turned to the spy. “Who are you?”

“I am Aku… a soldier to the king.” She said as she stared at Discord.

“What have you done to me?” He said Aku didn’t show any emotion.

“Not I, ugliest chimera.” She pulled something from her armor “I believe you remember this?” She pulled out an amulet with Discord’s head on it and a jewel that kept changing colors. Discord gasped in horror.

“But… I thought…”

“King Vorak knew that you’ll always go back on your word. So, he went back on his to outsmart you.” She said as Discord looked at the amulet. “This amulet holds your chaos magic and a piece of your essence. This was how you were an obedient soldier of King Vorak’s court. I’m sure that you remember, haven’t you?” She asked as Discord stuck his tongue at her.

“I always hated that centaur putting a leash on me.” He complained.

“But you’re on the same leash but with ponies. How is it different from what King Vorak did? He restrains your magic, and the ponies have done the same.” Said Aku.

“That’s a lie!” Yelled Discord “They see me as their ally and friend!” He yelled.

“Do not manipulate the truth.” Said Aku coldly “I’ve read history books about you manipulating the truth and trust of others for your amusement. You’ll do anything to save yourself.” She said as Discord (literally) rolled his eyes.

“I hate my past.” He complained about himself. “What do you want?”

“I’m following my orders.” She said as Discord cowering at her. “You may tell the Alicorns about my existence but remember, this amulet allows me to control you, and I won’t hold back to force you to harm your so-called ‘friends’.” She said as she marched away as Discord curled up into a ball.

“I should have never mocked Tirek about his father, even though I'm scared of that centaur.” He said as he poof himself

Author's Note

Uh-oh... This Aku girl isn't a pushover or can't be frighten by the Magic of Friendship, Alicorns or Discord and literally has something to keep him on a leash. Leave a comment and have a nice day. Also what do you think of The Amulet of Discord I thought of?
