I woke up one day thinking that it was just another normal day. Little did I know, I just got transported to Equestria, and the first thing I see is Pinkie Pie. Turns out ... I'm the new Lord of Chaos!

Ever wondered how it would be like to be Discord? Well I've been there, Literally. For some reason Discord has vanished form Equestria, and now I'm his replacement till he comes back. I might even stay if I do a good job at it, but that's Discords decision. But it's not all fun and games. Soon, mysterious happenings have been ... well happening to me. At first, we thought it was Discords doing, then we found out, it was something much worse ... Something, with a black heart ...

WHOA! I'M DISCORD!

I woke up and rubbed my eyes to get that blurry effect out of them like I always do. When I began to see better I noticed I didn't see my ceiling anymore, but the blue sky! I Stood up and found it rather hard to keep my balance, and I fell to the ground again. I looked down at my legs to see if they were still asleep, but what I saw made my eyes sink into my skull. I HAD A DRAGON AND HORSE LEG!

"WHAT THE HELL!?" I yelled at the sight of my legs. Then I looked at my arms to see that they too were different. "Really! What the hell is this!" I yelled again, a little louder this time. Then I noticed the ground, I was sitting on grass. "What the -?" I said to myself. Then I looked straight ahead to see a small village. The buildings that made up the village had straw roofs, and some were oddly shaped. Hell one building looked like a hollowed out tree! I stood up again to gain my balance, then I noticed someone walking in my direction. At first I thought they hadn't noticed me, then I saw it get closer fast. Thats when I realized, it did notice me. Well atleast SOMEONE was coming to see if I was alright. When it got a bit closer I could make out that it had a big smile on its' face. Seemed a bit strange to me, even though I myself am strange. When it got even closer I took note of its body and assumed that it was a girl. I saw that she had poofy hair and was ... pink? A couple of seconds later she was right in front of me. I raised an eyebrow at how she looked at me, and how she looked. She was wearing a striped t-shirt. The colors were pink and white, of course. Plus she had shorts on that ended a little below her knees. I saw that she had bubbly hair, and at the same time was poofy. Heh poofy.Also I noticed that she was bit shorter then me by one or two inches. That's when she started to speak.

"HI!" She said with a HUGE smile. Really its huge! I didn't know someone can have a smile that huge! Whoa.

"Um ... Hi?" I responded, I'm not sure what to say at the moment. Kind of akward really. Well to me anyway. No one really talked to me back home. I was the sort of guy who is really quiet, and pays attention in class at my University.

"HOWAREYA?YOUNEWHERE *GASP* THATSRIGHTIBROUGHTYOUHERE!SILLYMEIFORGOT!IJUSTHEARDYOURSCREAM,YOUOK!?MUSTBETHENEWLOOKIGUESS." She says to me. Man she talks fast, not to mention energetic.

"Um by new look you mean this?" I motion to my whole body just to clarify. She nods when I asked

"Yup! I'm Pinkie Pie nice to meet you!" She puts her right hand out to me, and I shake her hand.

"Wait a minute..." I said to her. She looks at me in confusion as I motion my finger to one place in the air to another. I put the pieces together in my head, then it clicks. "Oh Damn! Then I'm in Equestria! And that must be Ponyville!" I yell. Pinkie looks at me with big eyes. I can tell she didn't expect me to know this. Then she smiles.

"How did you know that?" She askes me still with her smile.

"I have my ways" I responded.

Then, I direct my attention to my body, and I freeze. The lion arm, dragon leg, eagle arm, and horse leg. Then I put my hand on my chin and feel a small beard and one of my eyebrows is thicker than the other. And CUE GASP!

"Oh Hell! I'm Discord!?" I yelled in excitement. All my happiness just wanted to come out. Reason being is because I always wanted to be Discord! I had his personality and everything! Pinkie then looks at me and says "Ya you are! Isn't it COOL!"

"Whoa! I'm Discord!" I said in a softer voice as I realize what kind of power I possess. I snapped my fingers in the air and materialized a smoothie. I was thirsty and decided hell with it. I drank it and damn it was good. Then something came up in my brain. If I'm Discord what happened to the old one?

"Hey Pinkie?"

"Ya?"

"What happened to the old Discord? I mean its awesome for me to be Discord, but something must've happened to him if I'm her right?"

"Oh ya well a couple of weeks ago Discord vanished without a trace, but he left a note about what we should do if we noticed. It said: Dear Everypony,

Don't worry where i might be all i need you to do is the following: Twilight I left a spell on the back of the note to find a replacement till I return. Pinkie, invite him into this world. I know you'd like that, Considering he has my personality. I picked that specific thing for a reason. Anyway, Tia I know your worrying where I might be so... STOP WORRYING! I won't do anything bad while I'm gone. Also get this thing a home and treat him nicely I might consider on keeping him here if he does a great job on replacing me. See ya later Everypony!

Discord"

"Wow you remembered all that?"

"Yup. Word for word"

"Whoa, So guess I'll be here a while then huh?"

"Seems like it" She says with a smile.

Pinkie walked me to Ponyville. I noticed that they all were anthros. Which seemed off to me, but I decided not to question it. I mean this is still Ponyville. Like the ol' saying goes 'Beggers can't be choosers'. I saw that we were walking towards the hollowed out tree, and realized Oh Twilight's house/library. We walked in, and noticed that the other five, including twilight, were all here. They were all looking at me with smiles on their faces. Well hell, this is a bit weird. Even for me.

Achievement Unlocked: First Prank!

As I look at everypony in the room with an eye twitch in my left eye, I see that their smiles are getting wider every second, well except for Fluttershy. She's looking the other way, and i think i can see her blushing. 'Did they really treat Discord like this, or are they just doing what Discord told them to do?'. As I looked at them i took note of what they were wearing. Twilight was wearing a dark blue shirt with her cutie mark on her chest, and was also wearing black jeans with white strips going down the sides. Rainbow Dash was wearing a light blue t-shirt and black shorts. Rarity was wearing a white dress and a blue strap at the waist. Applejack was wearing a brown jacket with a  white shirt with her signature brown hat, and brown shorts that ended one inch below her knees. Fluttershy was wearing a green sweater with a pink skirt that was pretty long.Then Spike walked in to see what was causing the long silence. He was wearing a red jacket that had black strips on the sides of his arms, and was wearing blue jean shorts.

I saw that Twilight was coming near me. I didn't want nopony getting near me yet (except for Pinkie), so i decided to take drastic measures. "Stop! Do not come any closer, Twilight! I needs meh space for a bit thank you very much!" I yelled, while snapping my fingers twice. The first time to send Pinkie to her group of friends, and the second to create a see-through wall.

"What the-" Twilight  as she hit the wall. I snickered as I saw that. Pinkie was standing over there with her friends giggling.

"That was funny Twilight!" Pinkie said as she laughed even harder.

Then i snapped my fingers a third time to materialize a soda. I took a sip, and then i knew exactly what the first prank I'll pull would be. Also, who the prank it was going to be pulled on. I chugged the rest of my soda and threw it in a trash can that i had materialized. I needed help with this prank though, and i knew just who to ask. I dematerialized the wall and walked up to them.

"Ok, I got my space for a bit. Now I shall talk to you mares for a bit, then after that i need to talk to Pinkie and Dash for a bit if that's alright," I told them. They nodded their heads in agreement. "Alright then. Let us speak!" I yelled.

"Ok first off," Twilight started, "What species did you used to be before becoming the new Discord, and how do you know our names?" she asked.

"Human, and i gots my ways," I told her. She looked at me with confusion.

"What exactly are your 'ways'?" she asked.

"Does it MATTER!?" i yelled at her. She jumped back at my yelling. I had some practice yelling. I had a brother who was extremely annoying, and i yelled at him a lot. That made my throat stronger- I don't know how though-and allowed me to yell even louder.

"Sorry," I said to her. "I'm just used to yelling, heheh,"

"Um... it's fine I guess," she said to me with a worried face.

"Oh and by the way, just call me Samuel. I know I'm the new Discord, but I'm just not comfortable being called that. I mean there's somepony else here called Discord ok," I told them.

"Sure! I'm sure we could do that," Twilight said to me.

"Thanks,"

"No problem,"

After thirty minutes of questions and answers, I asked Pinkie and Dash to come with me upstairs to talk about something important. I asked the other four to stay downstairs and they happily agreed. After Pinkie, Dash, and I went upstairs i started to talk to them.

"Ok listen, i know I'm the new Lord of Chaos and everything. So i need to start with some small pranks to see if I'll be fine with massive ones. I'm asking you two if you want to help me with the first one. Do you accept?" I asked them with an eager smile on my face.

"Yay a prank! I'll help!" Pinkie said with excitment.

"I'm in! What's the prank?" Dash asked.

"Ok, this is what we're going to do...," I told them what the prank involved and who the prank was going to be pulled on. They were shocked about who the prank was going to be pulled on, but I reassured them that it would be fine. It was just a small, harmless prank after all right. "Alright! Let the pranking begin!" I yelled as i jumped into the air, and teleported us to our destination. After preparing for it we got in position, and were ready to do it at any second.

"Is the soda in place, Pinkie?" I asked her.

"Yup ready for you anytime!" she said with a wide grin.

"Do you and Dash have one? If you don't, it won't go as planned," I told her.

"Well Dash has one, I don't yet," she replied.

"Well here," I said while snapping my fingers, and handed the soda to her, "Get in place Pinkie,"

"Ookiee Dookiee Lokiee," she said while hopping off to her position. After a couple of minutes, Twilight walked into her study to find a soda on her desk. She looked around to see if anyone was in her study before walking up to her desk. She looked at the soda with a confused look on her face.

"What in Equestira?" she said to herself. As she was about to pick it up, I teleported right next to reach out my hand to grab the soda. She jumped at the sight of a lion paw. She looked to her right to see me have a slight smirk on my face. I shook the can and was about ready to open it. Then Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash ran up to Twilight, and shook the cans' they had in their hands. All three of us pointed our cans' at Twilight. Thats when she realized what we were about to do. Then she covered her face to not get too soaked. Pinkie, Dash, and I opened our cans' and let all the soda in them come spraying out at Twi. We all started laughing, hell even Twilight laughed! When she removed her hands from her face, I saw that she had a can of soda in her hand!

"Oh Celestia!" I yelled. She pointed the can at me, then shook it and opened it before i can even teleport out of there. The soda was dripping off my fur coat, and i started to chuckle. We all laughed even harder after what has just happened. 'Well I can tell we are going to get along just fine'.

Party!? For ME!?

After the prank Pinkie, Dash, and I pulled on Twilight we headed down stairs to talk about where I might stay for the night. When we reached the end of the stairs though, it was pitch black. Plus the three ponies that came downstairs with me were gone.

"Um? Anypony there?" I asked. I was freaking out! I never liked the dark! Not after what happened last time! (Lets not go into that). I tired to look around for a light switch. My lion paw and eagle claw were on the walls searching for it. Man it seems like it's just getting darker and darker then it already is. The urge to just find the light switch and turn it on was growing. I needed to find it, and fast! Then I felt a switch and flicked it on.

"Oh thank Celestia!" I yelled. I turned around to see if the others were doing the same, but what I saw instead made a smile grow on my face. "P...P...Pinkie Pie! Is this a party for ME!?" I asked the pony responsible for this.

"Yup! It is! Do you like it"

"Ya, but how did you find the time t-"

Rainbow Dash cut me off, "Best not to ask her dude"

"Oh, right I forgot. Heheh"

"Anyway, lets get this party started!" Pinkie yelled. She ran off somewhere, and came back with Vinyl Scratch with her equipment. She grabbed a record in her hand, and put it on. Before playing it she said-

"Ok everypony! This song is a dedication to Discord!" Vinyl said with a grin. She turns to me and winks. I smile at her and turn my face in the other direction to hide my blush.

Youtube Video

"Mwahahahahahahahahaha!" I laughed after the song finished. Everypony cheered for me after. I don't know why, but I felt-good? I never felt this way in a long time. The moment I was old enough to go to collage, my parents sent me away. I had to get straight A's if I wanted to go back to with them.

I won't lie, I love my parents. I mean who doesn't love their parents. Thing is, they HATED me! I would try my best just to get attention from them, but they would always ignore me. Plus I had no friends, so I was basically alone for my whole life. This one moment made my life worth living. They were giving me attention. The one thing I always wanted my whole life. I felt tears run down my cheeks, and everypony in the room were all looking at me with smiles. 'how can a lord of chaos get ths much attention?' I thought to myself. I started the walk towards Pinkie Pie, and when I reached her I looked down at her. "Thank you Pinkie. No one has ever thrown a party for me," I said to her. Then ... I hugged her. She returned the hug. I never felt this warm in a long time. "My parents would ignore me, and on my birthdays all I got was a 'Leaves us alone' from them. My parents didn't come to my graduation in High School. I was the best in my class, but that wasn't enough for them," more tears started to run down my cheeks. "But I always thought to myself that there was someone out there who would give me attention-No one did, well in my world anyway. Then I got transported here. Again, thank you Pinkie," I let go of her, and she let go off me. I wiped the tears away from my face, and I turned to everypony else in the room.

"Thank you everypony. I really appreciate it," I said with a smile.

After that, we continued with the party for a couple of hours. While I was dancing, I saw Twilight and Pinkie look at me. They were talking to each other about something. When they realized I saw them looking at me, they blushed and turned away. I started to blush myself, and gulped. At some point, everypony started to leave. "Thanks for coming," I said to them as the last of them left. When I turned around after I closed the door, something ... unexpected happens. Pinkie ran up to me, and jumped towards me. I caught her because she would've fell to the floor if I didn't. "What was that!?" I asked her. She just smiled at me, and gave me a peck on the cheek. "Wh-!" I froze. Pinkie got down from me. I froze in a stance where it seemed I was still holding Pinkie. My head was facing to the left with a twitch in one of my eyes. After five minutes I was unfrozen. I looked at the ground with the twitch I still had, then I looked at Pinkie Pie with a raised eyebrow. She just smiles at me. After another couple of minutes Twilight, and Rainbow Dash came into the living room, and sat on the couch. 'Oh ya we still have to figure out where I'm going to stay for the night'. Me and Pinkie sat on the couch too.

"So where am I going to crash for the night?" I asked them.

"How about here?" Twilight suggests.

"No offense, but I honestly don't like librarys. Sorry," I tell her.

"Oh, its fine," Twilight hangs her head down in dissapointment.

"How about at my place?" Dash asks.

"I'm afraid of heights Dash," I say. Its kind of ironic really.

"Oh, sorry," She says.

"How 'bout Raritys' home?" she suggests again asks.

"No thank you. I don't want to be interupting her while she's working," I say.

"Fluttershys'?" Twilight asks me.

"I don't think that'll work honestly," I tell her.

"Oh, right," Twilight says while facepalming herself.

"How about AppleJa-" Dash starts to say, but I cut her off.

"Nope!" I yell. "I don't think that would be best!"

"Then I guess your staying with me!" Pinkie says with a wide grin.

My whole body starts to shake when I hear that. "Um... guess so. Heh," i say to her. 'FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'

I just want meh sleep!

While me and Pinkie were walking to her home, I noticed that she was swaying her hips a bit. More than usual though. Yes! I looked ok! I didn't expect this to happen though! We just met a couple of hours ago, and she already KISSED ME!? I strayed my vision from her for a while, and decided to take in the beautiful sight of the night sky. I haven't seen many stars back home. I took in the sight of it longer. The way the stars twinkled,and shined in the night sky. They were occupanied by the dark blue sky to increase their beauty by ten. The moon was shining a briliant white, the way it should be. This sight put a smile on my face, and warmed my heart. Pinkie turned her head to look at me, and saw me looking at the sky with my paw and claw on the back of my head. She also saw the smile I had, and smiled as well.

"Pretty huh?" she tells me.

"Yup, I haven't seen a night sky like this before, and honestly I never even thought about how beautiful the sky is 'till now," I said with a warm smile on my face.

We walked for a couple more minutes. Then I noticed Pinkie taking glaces at me, and blushing. I decided to ignore that though. A couple of other minutes later, and we were in front of Sugar Cube Corner. Its unique design was quite interesting. I mean its exterior design looked like a gingerbread house! Also, the very top looked like a cupcake with three candles. I had a feeling that it was Pinkies' room. 'Oh Celestia I just wish there's a guest room in there' I thought to myself. We walked in, and I noticed two other people working at the counter.

"Hi Mr. and Mrs. Cake!" Pinkie says to them.

"HI Pinkie Pie," Mr. Cake says.

"Why hello there Pinkie. Who's that you got with you?" Mrs. Cake asks her.

"This is Samuel. He's my new friend," she starts to say.

'I hope we are only friends' I thought to myself.

"Is it fine if he stays here for a while?" she asks.

"It's fine with me," Mr. Cake said.

"As long as he doesn't cause any trouble it's fine," Mrs. Cake adds.

"Thing is," Mr. Cake starts to say, "We don't have any guest rooms. The last room we had belongs to our twins now," he finishes.

I feel a tingle and a twitch coming up right now if Pinkie says what I think she is going to say. She turns to me and smiles. I give a nervous smile back at her, and she starts to blush again. 'Please don't say it, Please don't say it, Please don't say it' I keep repeating in my mind.

"You can sleep with me!" Pinkie says with an even bigger smile.

I gulp. I feel the tingle in my spine, and my eye twitches. Pinkie doesn't notice though. My heart starts to beat faster then it has ever beated in my LIFE! 'Wait a minute ... I have a plan!'. "Um sure Pinkie ... well if it's alright with you anyway ...".

"Of course it is! Thats why I said it!" she says with a smile.

"Um ... ok thanks, I guess," I say.

Pinkie,and I head upstairs to her room. There were a lot of stairs, hell I got out of breath at one point. When we arrived to her room, I noticed that it was big enough to have two beds! 'Yes! I knew it!' I thought to myself. I snapped my fingers to materialize a bed on the oppisite side of the room. (I'm getting pretty good at this stuff).

"You don't want to sleep in my bed with me? Its big enough," she tells me.

"Its fine, Pinkie. I prefer to sleep alone on a bed anyway. Thanks for the offer though," I tell her trying not to look freaked out. I put on a smile to hide it even more though, just in case.

"Well, if you say so," she says with a singing tune.

I materialize a wall inbetween me and Pinkie for extra protection. Though I don't think it'll work the way I want it to though. Considering that this is Pinkie Pie were talking about.

"Whats this for?" Pinkie asks.

"Um ... for um ... eh ... well ... um ... Ah buck it! Its for protection," I say.

"Protection? Against what?"

"...Not sure ... guess I'll know when I see it," I say to her. 'Even though I'm SEEING IT RIGHT NOW!' I think in my head.

"Oh, ok well night Sammy,"

"Sammy?"

"Thats your nickname now, for me anyways," she giggles.

"Oh ... um, ok," I say. 'SHIT! She gots a nickname for me now!' "Night to you too, Pinkie," I say before I start to close my eyes.

                                                                         ~Couple of minutes Later~

I wake up to the sound of footsteps. At first I thought it was Pinkie trying to get to me, but I looked at the wall to see that it's still there. 'Ok good' I think to myself. I close my eyes again to try to go to sleep. Thats when I feel something get on top of me. I open my eyes to see what it was, but damn it's dark. 'Shit! I can't see!' I wait for my eyes to adjust to the darkness, then all I saw ... was Pinkie Pie.

"And your on me ..." I say in a calm voice with my eyes half opened from how tired I was.

"Yup," She says with a slight giggle after.

"Mmhmm, well allow me say this ... GET OFF ME PINKIE!" I yell at her. "How did you even get past the-" she cutts me off by pointing in the direction of the wall. I look, and the wall is NOT there, what a shocker...

"Uhuh ... now let me offer this as a rebutle," I say as I snapped my fingers and teleported to the other side of the room. "Please, Pinkie! I just want meh sleep! Please!" I said to her.

"NO!" she yells while jumping towards me again.

"Fine, I didn't want to do this!" I tell her. I snapped my fingers, and teleported Pinkie to her bed with chains and a lock around her.

"Hey! Let me OUT!"

"No! I told you I didn't want to do this, but you forced my hand!" I said to her, but something in my mind told me she's just going to break free from those chains somehow. So I decided to do something I just didn't want to do! I leaned in on her as she struggled to break free. I resisted a bit, but I figured I wouldn't be able to sleep if I didn't do this. So I leaned in closer on her, and ... Ugh, Oh dear I can't believe I did that! I KISSED HER! ON THE LIPS! Pinkie was shocked I could tell, but I wanted to pull back! I started to after a couple of seconds, but Pinkie held on to my head to savor the kiss. Her eyes were closed, but my were opened with a twitch in my left eye (It's sort of a habit now). After a couple of minutes, she let go and I pulled back. Honestly, I didn't think my first REAL kiss was going to be with an anthro pony!

"Now can I get some sleep!?" I asked her, but she was already asleep from that kiss, so I guess I'm going to have a somewhat peaceful night tonight. I snapped my fingers to dematerialize the chains, and pulled the sheets over her. After, I climbed into my bed, and ... well fell to sleep. 'Well, I knew that was going to happen tonight' I thought to myself before going to sleep.

Helpin' Around (And getting answers)

I woke up, thankfully in the morning, and strecthed out my arms. I tried to get up, but something small was on me. I looked to see what it was, and saw Gummi on me. "Off I say!" I said while teleporting Gummi off me. I got up and saw Pinkie still sleeping. I headed towards the bathroom to brush my teeth. I swayed my hands in the air to create a toothbrush, and started brushing away. I made sure to get every tooth, the way my mom showed me. After brushing my teeth for three minutes, I got out of the bathroom and saw that Pinkie was barely putting on her shirt.

"O-OOOOKKKKK! Sorry Pinkie! I didn't mean to step in at a moment like this!" I say while heading back to the bathroom covering my eyes.

"Um ... its fine now. You can come out" I hear her say through the door of the bathroom. I got out, and saw Pinkie blushing.

" So ... um ... Any plans for today?" I ask her, trying to make small talk.

"Well I'm going to Twilights' today, to throw Spike his birthday party," she says with a grin. I start to smile too.

"Well thats cool. Mind if I tag along? I-if its fine with you that is," I say to her.

"Sure! The more the merrier!" she yells.

"K thanks," I said with a smile. Pinkie grins back at me. We started to head towards Twilights house to get ready for Spikes' B-Day. We got to her door and knocked. Twilight came to answer it, and man did she look good! She was wearing a long purple dress with pink strips at the waist. She still had her cutie mark on her chest, and she straightened her hair.

"Did you bring the decorations?" Twilight asked Pinkie. It was clear to me that Twilight didn't notice me yet.

"Of course I did! I would never forget something for a party!" Pinkie says with a smile.

"Um, mind if I ask something?" I ask them. Twilight jumps at my voice, and looks behind Pinkie to see me with a raised eyebrow.

"Oh, Samuel! I didn't notice you there!" Twilight said while coming towards me and hugged me. I hugged her back, then we let go.

"Um ya, anyway I just wanted to ask you something Twilight,"

"Sure,"

"Well I was wondering something actually. Did any of you notice Discords behavior before he left, and I came to take his place?" I asked.

"Well ... he was walking around PonyVille a couple of weeks ago ... He was also talking to certain ponies around town about something. Hey! Pinkie didn't Discord come up to you and asked you something?" Twilight said looking at Pinkie.

"Oh Ya, he did!" Pinkie said

...

...

...

"Well are you going to tell us what it was?" I asked her.

"Ya sure, he said that he needed a vacation, and asked me if I knew any good spots, and I told him I knew many. So he asked me where, and I told him all the places I knew. Thats all," Pinkie said with a smile at the end.

"Well ... um ... come in I guess. Lets set the place up for Spikes birthday," Twilight said. We entered Twilights house, and Twilight closed the door behind us. We put the decorations on the table, and each of us grabbed some of the decorations and went to start hanging them. I got the streamers, that were purple and green, and started to hang them on the walls. Pinkie got the balloons and start to blow air into them. Then she got some string and tied the balloon, and let them go so they went to the ceiling. Twilight got the sign that said 'Happy Birthday Spike!'. She tried to reach the top so she could hang it, but she was having trouble. She turned around for some reason, and saw me looking at her with a worried look on my face.

"Um, need help with that," I asked pointing at the sign.

"Please, I would really appreciate it," she said looking down at the floor. So I walked towards her to help her hang it. I started to hover above the ground just high enough so I could hang it correctly. I turned around and saw Twilight hang the other end.

"Hey I thought you needed help. But I could clearly see that you didn't really need it," I said with a laugh. I saw her blush a little after I said that. "It's fine though. I'm happy to help," I said with a grin. When we finished hanging it, I came back down to earth. Twilight came towards me and hugged me again.

"Thanks, Samuel," she said while looking up at me.

"Um ... no problem. I'm happy to help a FRIEND," I said to her. I turned around and saw Pinkie looking at Twilight with a nasty face, but when she saw me looking at her she just went back to blowing air into the balloons. "So anyway ..." I said pushing Twilight away from me gently, "Um, I guess we're done," I looked around to make sure everything was perfect for Spikes birthday. After I did that, we sat down at the couches, and I looked towards Twilight. "Hey, Twilight," I started to say. "Mind if I ask you some more questions?" I asked her.

"Sure, go ahead," she said while sitting down next to me.

"OK, well I was just curious, was I the only one on the back of the note?" I asked her.

"What note? Oh that note, no you weren't. Discord listed a couple of other beings, but your name was in bold so I brought you here out of the whole list," she said.

"OK, next question. Aside from Discord walking around PonyVille talking to ponies, did you notice any other strange behavior?"

"Hmm ... Well I did notice Discord reading something while walking around,"

"Reading huh? By any chance you didn't notice just what book it was did you?"

"... No not really, but the cover had a weird looking being on it,"

"Noticed anything else about the cover?"

"Yeah I did. The being was in a pose like it was ready to pounce, and its expression was terrifying too,"

"Hmm ... OK. Last question, and Pinkie this one is for you. Did Discord tell you anything else, anything at all beside what he asked you?"

"Nope, not that I can remember. OH! He did tell me to make sure you were treated well. Is that what you were meant?" Pinkie finished. I facepalmed myself, and looked at Pinkie.

"No, thats not want I meant, Pinkie," I told her.

"Oh, sorry," she said.

"It's fine, atleast I have a bit of information on Discord. Plus we have to be careful. I mean this is Discord we're talking about right? So we have to be on guard at all times," I told them.

'I'm handling today like a boss! Nothing strange has happened today!

Shut up brain! Don't jinx it!

Well good job brain ... You jinxed it ...

After we had finished our conversation, it was about twelve 'o clock. So we decided to go grab something to eat. We headed to someplace called Bronze Hearts' Salad Burgers. I'm not really big on salad, but hey, they don't have anything else here that seemed atleast decent. We all got the salad burger, and asked for them to go. We put them in a bag and headed back to Twilights' place. We went inside, and saw Spike.

"Oh! Spike ... um ...what are you doing here?" Twilight asked nervously.

"I just came back from that seemingly impossible task, but I got all the quills and papers you needed, Twilight. Sure is heavy. Why do you need all this stuff anyway?" he asked with a grunt.

"I told you Spike ... I need them for an experiment I'm conducting," she said, now starting to blush.

"Oh, OK. Where do you want me to put them?"

"You can put them upstairs please," she told him.

"Alright then. Oh, Twilight who's he?" he asked her, pointing at me with his free hand.

"Oh, him?" she started, looking at me. "His name is Samuel, and he's here in Discords' place,"

"Cool. Well guess I'll be seeing you around Samuel, but right now I have to get this heavy load upstairs," he smiled at me, and headed upstairs wobbling from side to side trying to get to his destination.

"Um, need any help with that, Spike?" I asked.

"No *grunt* No I got it. Thanks for asking though," He said. He tripped on himself, and I noticed just in time for me to teleport right next to him to catch him, and the boxes he was carrying. "Holy Shit! Heh thanks, Samuel. You saved my life there. Last time I dropped Twilight's stuff, she let out her rage on me with a stick!" he laughed.

"Well no problem," I smiled at him.

"Alright then, I guess I'll head on upstairs to put these boxes away. See ya later, Sam," he waved to me and headed upstairs, but before he got to the top, Twilight had one more thing to tell him.

"Oh, and Spike..." she began, "Can you organize them with the others as well?" she asked.

"WHAT! But that'll take HOURS!" He exclaimed. Twilight just stood there and stared at him intently. I saw Spike start to sweat, and he seemed rather uneasy. After a couple of seconds of this, he snapped. "*sigh* OK, fine ... I'll do it  ..." He puffed. He headed upstairs, and followed Twilight's order.

"Well ... That was interesting ..." I said.

"No need to worry, Spike can handle it," she said with a smile.

"Wait a minute! How did Spike not see the decorations!?" I asked her.

"Well, I put a spell on them that doesn't allow Spike to see them until an assigned time," She said with a smile.

"Um, OK. Makes about as much sense as the rest of this place, ha!" My stomach started to growl from my hunger, "Well are we going to start eating, because I'm hungry!" I yelled, while opening my bag. I pull out my salad burger from its bag, and unwrap it from its foil. I took a bite out of it, and surprisingly, it was really good! I normally don't eat salads, but this was good. I chewed it, savoring its flavor, and smiled after I swallowed. "Oh, and by the way, Twilight, what were you doing to Spike that made him all uneasy?" I asked her with a raised eyebrow.

"I just stared at him. Fluttershy taught me the stare, so I practice whenever I get the chance. Like right now on Spike,"

"Bit harsh if you ask me..." I said while taking another bite my burger. "You know, why do they call this a burger if it doesn't even have any meat? Shouldn't it be called a sandwich?" Twilight and Pinkie both looked at me with worried faces. "What? Was it something I said?"

"You eat meat?" Twilight asked me.

"Oh! Uh, ya, but I only eat certain meats," I laughed, trying not to concern them.

"Phew, that's a relief, wait ... YOU DON'T EAT PONY MEAT DO YOU!?" Pinkie shouted with a very frightened expression.

"No, I don't, Pinkie," I laughed again. Wait a minute! Why do I see them both getting closer to me!? No ... NOT AGAIN! I decided to get up and come up with an excuse to leave. "Um ... if you'll excuse me, I'm late for an appointment," I said, trying to escape this situation.

"What appointment?" Twilight said in a seductive voice, while using her magic to sit me back down.

OH COME ON! Why'd you have to JINX IT!? I said to my inner self.

'HEY! Don't blame this on me! It's not my fault!'

It is your fault! Now I can't leave! *shiver* I don't want even think what might happen to me now! GO TO HELL BRAIN!

'Language dude. Can we keep this PG please?'

Fuck you! You ... FUCKER!!!

'Good Luck!'

Holy ... SHIT!!!!

Aren't you going to suggest me a way out of this!? I asked myself in a frustrated tone.

'OH! Um... let me think... Got it! Escape Plan: Beta!'

Hell no! I have to jump off a cliff for that plan!

'Then why are you asking me for help!?'

FFFFFFFUUUUUUUU.......... I DON'T KNOW! Twilight was getting even closer to me every second, but right now, I was more worried about Pinkie! After what happened back in her room, I don't want to KNOW what she might do here! ... Wait a minute ... where was, Pinkie? Shit ..., I looked around trying to spot her, but the more I focused on finding Pinkie, Twilight was getting closer. Shit ... they planned this out didn't they!? I felt myself twitch in my left eye, worst part, I couldn't get up either. Twilight was holding me down with her magic, and Pinkie was somewhere else ready to pounce. I turned to Twilight and saw her right next to mine! Our faces where only inches away, I could feel her breath on me. She moved her hand to my chest, and leaned in closer. SHIT!!! Whats wrong with her! ... Wait a minute ... I thought for a while quickly before Twilight got even closer to me. Oh shit ... N-no ...No ...No no no... Oh holy SHIT. I figured it out. SSSHHHIIITTT!!! She's in HEAT!!! Now THIS was bad, I couldn't get up, Twilight right next to me in heat, and Pinkie off to who knows where PROBABLY IN HEAT AS WELL! Then I realized, Hey! I have magic too! I snapped my fingers around the magical locks, and they vanished.

"What the-" Twilight said after I cut her off.

"See ya," I said with a slight smirk. Just as I was about to fly away, Pinkie came out of nowhere, and pinned me to the ground!

"Twilight! I got him!" she yelled. Twilight came running to where Pinkie pinned me down. I saw them both with seductive smiles!

Holy ... SHIT!!!! How do I get out THIS!!! Pinkies' an earth pony, so I know shes pretty strong. Then there's Twilight! She has incredible magical powers! THERE"S NO ESCAPE!!! Just as I thought this, someone came into Twilight's house. I turned my head to check who it was, and the two others turned to check as well.

"..! DASH! Help me out here! PLEASE!" I requested with a worried tone.

"What the hell? What's happening here?" She asked.

"Twilight, and Pinkie are both in their fucking heat! They're trying to get their way with me! Help me PLEASE!" I pleaded.

"Oh shit! Hold on!" Rainbow Dash started running towards Pinkie to get her off me. She jumped in to the air, and did a pretty cool flip, and tackled Pinkie off of me. I got up, and saw Twilight preparing a spell, so I grabbed Rainbow Dash, who was busy keeping Pinkie down, "What the hell!?"

"We're leaving!" I said in a dark tone. Then I snapped my fingers to transport Rainbow Dash away first. "Sorry it had to be this way Twilight, but hey ... You were trying to get your way with me, so ... See ya Later," My eyes turned completely black, and a white orb formed around me, that transported me to were Rainbow Dash was.

When the orb disappeared, I feel to the ground taking deep breathes. I was sweating a bit, and there was a slight pain in my chest. I held my head, because of the massive headache I was having. Holy Shit ... what happened?

"Whoa dude, You OK?" I heard Dash's voice, and she sounded worried.

"Ya ... ya ... I'm fine ..." The pain in my chest was going away after awhile, but my headache still remained.

"What happened back there? Why are you all sweaty?" She asked me.

"*pant pant* I don't know ... All I remember was seeing Twilight's frightened face, and hearing a distorted voice. After that ... it all went blank on my part. I don't even remember what I said back there," My headache was getting worse, It was really painful. Then I felt like someone was engraving something into me, It stung ... really bad. "Ah! Shit! What the hell!?" I saw Rainbow Dash gasp as she was looking at me. "What? What is it?"

She reached into her pocket of her pants, and took out a mirror, then she handed it to me. I took it, then opened it to see what was wrong ... Then ... on my eye ... I saw a symbol in my left eye! It was replacing my pupil! It seemed to be a dragon around some sphere with a lightning bolt inside. The color of the dragon was a light shade of purple, and its eye was pure yellow as well. The sphere looked like some kind of coin, with a lightning bolt engraved in it. It was creepy as hell, but cool at the same time!

"That is trippy ... How did you get that anyway?" Dash asked me.

"I ... don't ... know ... But something tells me, that this isn't supposed to be here ..."

"Of course NOT! It's replacing your fucking pupil!" The tone in her voice irritated me! My eye twitched, then they both turned completely black, except for the mark in my left eye, and I turned to her.

"Watch that tone missy! Don't want anything to happen to you now, don't you?" I heard that distorted voice again, and saw Rainbow Dash backing away a bit, then everything went blank.

...

...

...

...

...

...

I started to wake up. I heard a faint beeping sound as I struggled to stay awake. I opened my eyes, my vision was  a little blurry at first, but then they started stabilized to my surroundings. I was able to see three different colors, when they did. Cyan Blue, Purple, and Yellow, they were all around me. I felt some sheets on me, and a hand on my chest. That's when I started to hear voices

"Oh, he's starting to wake up,"

"Is he alright?"

"I'm not sure..."

"What happened last night anyway? I don't remember a thing,"

"You mean to tell me, that you don't remember what you and, Pinkie tried to do to him!"

"... No ... nothing ..."

"Well turns out, you two weren't in heat ..."

"WHAT!?"

The voices began to become clearer. I thought I heard Twilight's, and Rainbow's voice, but who was the other? "Ugh ... what the hell? Ow! My head ..."

"Shh, he's awake,"

"Rainbow Dash? Is that you?" I started to say.

"Ya, its me. Hey you OK there dude? That was pretty scary what you did last night. I didn't know your teeth could get that sharp!" She replied.

"My ... teeth?"

"Ya, you bit me too, but lucky it was small, so the doctor just had to patch me up," She smiled.

"Wait ... I bit you! Hold on ... where are we?" I asked her.

"Oh, we're in 'Ponyville Hospital', and two others came to visit. One more thing, turns out Pinkie, and Twilight weren't in heat," She said while moving away from the other two visitors.

"Oh, thank goodness your OK Samuel!" Twilight said while hugging me.

"Um ... you ... too?" I said to her. I turned around to see who the other visitor was, and I saw ... FlutterShy.

"Oh, Hi. I'm Samuel." I said, trying to smile. FlutterShy just turned away, rubbing her arm. "Um ... your FlutterShy right?" I asked her.

"Yes," she mumbled.

"Sorry, what was that?" I asked her again.

"Yes," She said, a little louder this time.

"I'm going to take that as a yes," I said with a slight laugh, trying to brighten up this akward conversation. "O-ow! What's with this massive headache!?" I yelled. Twilight, and Rainbow Dash both looked at each other, then looked at me.

"We could explain that," they said in sync, "Probably," Dash added.

Pitch Black

I was stuck in that hospital for at least three days, and the food was horrible! I was surprised they didn't have to pump my stomach, do to the food. Well at least I'm out of there. I finished checking out, and headed outside to get some fresh air.

"Ah ... fresh air ... I need something to eat ..." I started to head to the nearest market to buy some apples, but that's when I realized that I didn't have any bits! "Shit I forgot... No money..." So I just decided to go and visit Twilight, to see if she has found a counterspell. I arrived at her home, and knocked on the door, and Twilight came to answer it.

"Hi, Twilight. How are ya?" I asked her, due to me not talking to her in a while.

"Quick get in!" She said, while pulling me in her house. After she pulled me in, she slammed the door behind us.

"Well this is a fine way of saying hello..." I told her, while crossing my arms.

"Sorry, its just I found out who's causing all this to you, and he could be watching you as we speak," She said. She ran to one of her bookshelves to grab one of the many books that was on it. She came back to me opening to a certain page of the book she got, and pointed to something. "Pitch Black, He's the one who released the Paleneristicus, and cursed you with it. It says that Pitch Black practiced dark magic, and was locked up for releasing something in Equestria. The book also says that he was locked up in the the impenetrable prison of Equestria, Prison #50," She started to shiver a bit at the mention of it.

"Is it that bad?" I asked.

"Well, clearly it's that bad! And it also says that he wasn't supposed to be released in another ten years! If somepony like him, can break out of a prison like that! Then this is getting pretty serious, pretty fast,"

"Well do you have any idea where he could be right now?"

"He's probably somewhere in Ponyville, but I can't be sure ... I can sense a huge amount of power here somewhere around mid town of Ponyville, but we should stay indoors just incase,"

"Well ... what do we do for the time being?" I asked her.

"Well ..." She started.

"NO! Forget I even asked. Plus, I'm kinda in the middle of something here!" I yelled.

"Your right ... sorry," She hanged her head down.

"*sigh* It's fine, but anyway have you found a counterspell yet?" I asked hanging my own head now.

"No not yet. I might have to ask Celestia if she might have any books on counterspells for dark magic,"

There was a knock at the door.

"I'll get it, Twilight," I told her. I headed to door to open it.

"Wait! That surge I felt in mid town is right there behind the door!" She yelled at me.

"WHAT!?" I backed away from the door slowly, I knew Pitch Black came for me.

"Go hide somewhere Samuel," She whispered to me. I started to go up the stairs, but a dark barrier formed right in from of me. I tried going through it, but some dark pulse inside me was keeping me from going through. "Oh no ..." I turned to Twilight to see what was wrong, and I saw a dark portal forming in front of her. I started to see a couple of dark claws holding the side of it, as if he was ripping the very fabric of time and space. I started to see a head coming from the dark hole in the air. The creatures expression was some sort of evil grin, which creeped me out like hell. Then his whole body come into view.

He had gold braces on his legs that looked like they actually went inside of his legs! He also was wearing a black leather jacket with a red trim, and also had a fur scarf that was red as well. He had what seemed like bags under his eyes, and was wearing silk pants and black shoes.

"Well seemed like I had to let myself in..." He said in a somewhat distorted voice. "Ah Twilight, it has been ages since the last time we met! How have you been my dear?" He asked her.

"I'm sorry have we met?" She looked at him with a glare.

"Haha! No, I was just teasing to see your reaction, but clearly there isn't any. Anyway, where is that boy that contains my pride and joy?" He looked around the room pretending not to see me at first, then he slowly turned his head to me and smiled. "There you are," He disappeared into in an arrange of shadows, and rearranged right in front of me. "So your Samuel, the one that contains my Paleneristicus huh? Well congrats on that kid, my pride and joy doesn't choose just anyone. He only chooses one that contains true evil in his heart, but you don't seem like the kinda guy who has that now do you?" He asked me, looking right into my eyes. I started to tremble. "Well don't worry about that, that little variable can be changed quite easily haha," He laughed right in my face.

"Why is this thing inside me!?"

"What? You don't like your true potential? Eh, I guess I could take it out of you, only if you want it out though,"

"Well clearly I don't want this thing in me!" I was steamed at this guy. He seems intimidating, but he's acting like a fool!

"Fine I'll take it out! If you pass my test,"

"Test?"

"Yes, I will arrange three paths for you, each one leading to the end, but each one has its own dangers. If you can get past one of the paths without any cuts, I'll set it free and this'll all be over. If you get passed one path with more than five cuts, not only will I still release it, but put it inside Twilight! But, if you make it across with more than ten cuts, I'll just awaken it right at that moment. We got a deal?" He extended his arm to me to shake, and I accepted.

"Sure!"

"Excellent!" He waved his hands to create three paths, and now we were outside. "OK, here are your choices, to the right is a horde of creatures, each time one of them touches you, that counts as one cut. To the left is a dragon, each time it touches you, it counts as three cuts, but if you get past it, not only will I release the Paleneristicus inside you, but I'll lock myself up in Prison #50 again. In the middle path is a secret. Now choose wisely Samuel. Which way do you choose?"

The Dragon Path it is!

“I’m going with the left path,” I said to him. I think I should’ve picked another one because after I said that, a smile came across stretching from ear to ear. He started to levitate in the air, and handed me some sort of paper and a pen.

“Excellent choice, now if you could just sign this paper stating, that everything that is about to happen if you fail, is entirely one-hundred percent your fault,” He pointed to a part of the sheet which had a signature line on it. I looked at the pen, then the paper … then at him.

“Why would I sign this? I mean if this paper were to state that everything that is about to happen is my fault, then why would I sign it?” I looked at him with a look that made him grit his teeth.

“Geh! Well … um … Because everything is your fault. I mean the Paleneristicus chose you after all. Plus, if you do fail at this task, well … heheh … it all depends on those 'cuts',” He gained his assurance in himself again after that little recover, his expression from total shock, changed to nothing but reassurance. “Anyway, mind signing this little paper to complete our little agreement? Come on,” He smiled again hinting to the pen and paper. I started to grab the pen. I held it to my face, thinking it over. After a while, I uncapped the pen.

“Fine … I’ll do it,” I said with a sigh “Only to get this damned thing out of me, and to send you back to where you belong!” I yelled at him showing all my determination against him. Then he just smiled.

“Wait! You don’t have to do this Samuel! I can find a counter spell, I promise! Just please don’t listen to him! He’s just tricking you; he’s going to awaken it either way!” Twilight yelled. For a while I thought she wasn’t in the same place as us, but then I saw here a couple of feet behind Pitch Black. She must’ve know where we we’re at. I saw Pitch Black look back at her, and I could tell he was giving her a nasty look based on her backing off a little, and a worried expression on her face.

“Wait how do you know he’ll do that, Twilight?” I asked her. She was knocked back by shock at this question. She was gritting her teeth like Pitch Black was earlier.

“Just a hunch?”  She looked nervous.

“What do you mean just a hunch?” I was worried about this. How would she know that he was going to wake this thing inside of me either way? Pitch Black looked back at her again, but with an even nastier face this time by the way Twilight was sweating, and backing away even more. “Twilight, do you know what’s going on? Please tell me if you do,” I looked back at her, and she was looking back at me too.

“I don’t know anything else about this other than what I’ve told you already, I promise,” She said to me with an even worried face on her.

"Just sign the damn paper already!" I looked back at him. He seemed impatient. I just stared at him for a while, then I snatched the paper from his hand.

"Fine! I'll sign it !" I held the paper closer, and started to sign my name on the dotted line, and handed it back to him. "There! Now get that path ready for me,"

"Haha! It's a deal then!" Pitch Black threw the paper in the air, and it burst into flames. He looked straight back at me with an evil smile. The little twitch in his left eye just sold how insane he was.

Wait a minute ...

"You ready Samuel? Because heeere we go!" He brought his hand down, and the other two paths began to lower. The rumbling, and shaking of the ground almost made me lose my balance. "You may enter when ready," He gestured to the opening of the path. I breathed in, ready to take on this dragon in my way. Out of the corner in my eye I saw Pitch Black snickering. I gulped, and headed in. Once I was passed the line on the ground-that I just barely noticed-Pitch Black said something that made me change my mind instantly. "Aha! Welcome to 'My Maze of Terror!' Good luck with the dragon. Oh. and one more thing ... I changed the amount of cuts that the dragon deals. Now, if he so much as scratches you ... you automatically lose! Haha! I hope you live," After that I started to run forward a bit, and already came to a split. I went the right, and heard a terrifying roar. It shook the very walls of this labyrinth, and they were made of stone! I turned around to be face-to-face with a purple dragon the size of a school bus! I noticed it's green spikes on it's head and back. I also noticed it's tail with a shape of a spade at the very end of it.

"Spike!?"

The Dragon's Maze

“Spike!? Is that really you? What happened?” I don’t know why I asked him that because by the way he was looking at me, it seemed as if he didn’t know at all. “Spike … What happened?” I asked him once more. He just roared and swung at me. “Whoa!” I ducked just in time. “This clearly isn’t going anywhere … Spike! Listen to me! Stop this right now! You don’t know what could happen if you do this!” He swung at me again, but this time, he aimed for my legs. I managed to jump up in time again. “Spike, please stop! All of Equestria will be in terrible danger if you do this!”

He swung his tail at me, and I managed to dodge it again. “This isn’t going anywhere!” I snapped my fingers to materialize a stone wall in between us, and I took off. “This can’t be happening! Why is Spike the dragon?” As I was running, I noticed the walls changed from stone bricks, to leaves. “What?” I kept on running, but came to the same split two other times. “Wait a minute … I have wings!” I started to flex my wings getting ready to take off, but then I heard someone.

“Oh haha, I forgot!” It was Pitch Black. He appeared on a screen that he was able to conjure up. “You can’t use your wings for this game,” He raised his hand in the air, and moved his hand in twists and turns. Then I looked back, and my wings disappeared.

“What the-“

“Oh, and one more thing,” He looked at me, and looked back at him. “No teleporting either! Haha!” He disappeared as fast as he appeared, and I continued the maze. Since I lost Spike back there, I was able to take my time looking for a way out. I kept taking lefts and rights in this labyrinth, until I came to a dead end. “Oh come on!” I turned back to head the other way, but a wall of leaves grew from the ground. “What’s going on now?” I saw Pitch Black …again.

“Looks like you reached a dead end there Sam,”

“Gee, really?”

“Haha, don’t worry. I’ll help you out,” He waved his hand, and I heard walls moving around me. Then he lowered his hand and the wall that grew disappeared. “There you go, now continue, Oh and just for a bit more fun … I placed some traps in this maze as well. Good Luck Sam, oh wait … you’ll be dead before you even get to the end! Haha!” He disappeared again. Now not only is Spike the dragon after me, now he switched up the maze, and he placed traps! As I was walking, I felt like I stepped on a button on the floor. I looked down to see a button there, “Well shit …” The floor opened up and I feel in some black goo. I tried to get out, but the more I struggled, the more it was sucking me in. “Crap! It’s tar!” I tried to stay still thinking of a way out. Then I saw a small branch sticking out of the wall. “Aha!” I snapped my fingers to make the branch bigger and stronger. I wrapped my tail around it, and then I heard a roar.

I looked back, and saw Spike “Oh come on!” I tried to pull myself up with all my might. Spike was getting closer with every second, and I was getting more scared with every inch Spike gets closer to me. I managed to pull myself out, but Spike was already swinging at me. I was so shocked at how fast he was swinging that I forgot to duck, but I came to my senses and dodged right in time. I ran farther up the path, and turned around. “Sorry Spike,” I aimed my finger at Spike, and shot a light beam that temporarily disables his sight. I ran as fast as I could to get out of his line of sight before his vision was restored. I turned my head back, and heard him roar again. That roar sent a shiver down my spine, and it gave me goosebumps. I really should’ve looked where I was going, because I slammed right on one of the walls. “Ow …” I was surprised the wall was that hard. I got up and moved some of the leaves and vines, and found the stone brick wall again “Oh …” I managed to escape another trap, but hurt my ankle while in the process. I was walking along the path, and tripped across this string, and heard a clanking and chopping noise. I saw a huge log falling towards me. I got up in time, and jumped over it, but it managed to get my foot, and I wasn’t able to walk for a while.  I was limping now, but the good thing was that I found the end right after that. “Yes finally!” I was right about to escape, then I saw Pitch Black come out of the back of the exit.

“Not in my house,” He said waving his finger. He snapped them, and then the exit disappeared.

“What the-“ This guy was getting on my nerves. First he changed the amount of counts to instantly losing if Spike touches me. Then he takes my wings, and my ability to teleport. Then he changed the maze when I reached a dead end. Then he sets traps, and finally he moves around the maze right when I almost escaped! I couldn’t take it anymore! I heard that roar again “Wow, this day just keeps getting better and better …” I turned around to see a raged Spike. I materialized an iron club and swung it at Spike “I’m sorry Spike. But I have do this!” But Spike knocked out of my hands before I could even land it on him. I was surprised, but I just spawned another weapon. This time, an axe. I swung it at Spike, and managed to cut him a bit, but that just made him even angrier.  He chomped off the top of the axe, and swallowed it! Then he swung his claws at me again, but this time … I wasn’t so lucky. I went flying to the wall, and slammed against it. I fell to the ground and felt my cheek. I felt three cuts on it.

“No!” I got up and snapped my fingers to materialize another wall, but Spike went over it this time! I stared to run away from him again. I just put all of Equestria in danger the moment Spike scratched me! My friends, Twilight, Rainbow Dash, and especially, Pinkie! I kept on running, with Spike right behind me.  I noticed a break in the wall. I thought it was another split, but when I got closer, I noticed it was the end! I started to run even faster to get to the end before Spike got me. I also noticed Pitch Black pacing a bit. He was too busy to notice me, so I took this opportunity to escape. Pitch Black turned and saw me.

“You are not leavin-“ I cut him off by running right past him right when he was about to rearrange the maze again. He disappeared into an arrange of shadows again, and appeared in front of me. “Well…” he started “Looks like he touched you. Not only touched you, but downright scratched you! Does it hurt?” He asked with a smile.

“I lost huh?” I hanged my head waiting for his answer.

“Oh big time” He snapped his fingers, and then I felt strange. My body was starting to shake. My claws began to grow sharper, and longer. My rage that was building up inside me was being released. I saw a couple of gold braces growing out of my leg. Pitch Black snapped his fingers again, and then a black coat with a red trim materialized on me, and silk pants. Then I felt bags under my eyes. He pointed to my feet and a pair of black shoes appeared there. I looked at him, then at myself. He just gave me a grin, and opened a portal.

“My work here is done” He went through the portal, and disappeared. The symbol that was replacing one of my pupils shone, and I went completely insane.

I was beaten …

When I awoke from my insanity, I was sitting on a throne of some sorts, and Celestia and Luna in a cage to my left. When I looked to the right I saw a glass stained window with Celestia and Luna being beaten by a monster with two golden braces coming out of its right leg, and its grin was bloodcurdling. I looked down to my legs, and there I saw two golden braces on my right leg ...

"What have I done?!"

The Palener ... what? (Short chapter)

"What the hell is  Palners... Palenert ... Palen ... HOW EVER THE HELL YOU PRONOUNCE IT!" I yelled, a little frustrated at how complicated the word was.

"A Paleneristicus, Is a demon spirit, that chooses a host that is worthy of its' powers, then possess it. Thing is, they are not natural. They must be produced, but only one book in all of Equestria, contains the spell that can produce one," Twilight replied.

"How do you know all this?" I was confused as hell as how she would know all this.

"I looked it up, in one of my books in the Library," she smiled.

"Well anyway, you don't think that the book is in the possession of Discord do you? I mean Discord did have a book with some sort of monster on the cover right?" I asked her.

"Well yes it did ... but that wasn't a Paleneristicus, It was something else ... The way a Paleneristicus is described, is a spirit with the upper body of a bull, but the lower body thins out to nothingness. It appears to have horns that point forward, and its hooves are replaced with claws. It has no eyes, but eye sockets! They are shaped in a form where it appears to be mad all the time. And to top it all off, it has a creepy smile on its face as well," She shivered at the thought of seeing one. "And that symbol in your left eye, shows that its in passive mode," She finished.

"Wait! You mean to tell me that its asleep!" I yelled.

"Yes. It sleeps inside its host for up to two weeks, then when it wakes up, it takes complete control over its host for twenty-four hours. After that, it goes back to sleep for another two days, due to the power it has used to stay inside of its host. Then, it awakens once again, and never goes back to sleep," She said.

"Shit ..." Me and Dash responded in sync. I turned to Fluttershy, who was hiding in the corner, and decided cheer her up. "Hey, Fluttershy no need to worry OK? Twilight here knows what she's doing. Oh, Twilight, do you know why its chosen me to be its host? I mean, I'm just a human who was sent here, and was transformed into the new Lord of Chaos,"

"No, not really. I'm still looking into that as well. Maybe there's some sort of prophecy to it," She finished.

"Well ... that's ... um ... helpful? Well ... Did you atleast find out anyway to get this thing out of me?" I asked her.

"No, she hasn't," Rainbow Dash said.

"How in the hell do you know? No offense," I said to her.

"None taken, and I know, because I may ... have... helped ... her," She said.

"I did not expect this ..." I said in a surprised tone. "So, I'm just going to have to put up with this thing inside me, have some serious black out moments, and potentially hurting you guys, until you find a spell to get rid of it huh?"

"Pretty much, but the strangest thing is, that I've heard that they could only be produced by letting them through a certain portal ... I don't how anything can create a portal though ..." She was worried, and so was I.

"Maybe somepony in Ponyville can create them," Rainbow Dash suggested.

"Maybe ... but who? I might have to check The Equestrian Criminal Records for any leads to who might be the cause of all this. If its somepony who would this, then he's got to have some sort of criminal record," Twilight said, then headed out after saying goodbye to Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, and me.

"So, you know when I'm able to get out of this Hospital?" I said in a irritated tone.
