Preview of Chapter 16. It starts getting real. · 12:24am Mar 25th, 2015
Glare was surprised, but he didn't seem impressed.
"We will talk later, Daughter," he said smugly. "Papa has some business to attend to. Then we'll talk."
A bolt of powerful magic hit Glare in the side, sending him hard into the opposite wall. The hold he had on Twilight and her friends broke and she fell hard to the ground.
"Don't... ever call yourself that again!" Luna said through gritted teeth.
Glare slowly picked himself up. "As much as you would reject me...," he said quietly. "It won't change the fact that I am your father, girl."
"No you're not," Luna growled. "You never were..."
"Luna, you wound me," Glare said sadly. "I mean that. The one thing that remained constant was the fact that I always did my best for my daughters..."
"I'm gonna buck him again," Applejack said.
"AJ! Wait!" Twilight said. "Dash, you wanted Plan B? This is it! Luna can distract him while we build up energy for another shot. We hurt him bad with the last one, we can finish him off this time!"
No you can't Twilight Sparkle, came a familiar voice. Not like that, you're going to need some extra help. We can give it to you without a problem, but you're going to have to wait for Luna to... relieve some stress.
Twilight paused. "Did anypony else hear that?"
Dash looked at her blankly. "Hear what?"
Oh. only you can hear me! said the voice gleefully. I cam hear everything you think, but talk out loud if you want. They'll need to know about this too, if you six want to stop Glare...
"Who gave you permission to be in my head?!" Twilight screamed, incensed. "And how did you manage it anyway? You're-"
Dead?
"What?" Twilight snapped. "No! You're not dead just-"
Petrified, right. Let's examine the symptoms of "petrification" for a moment... I have been completely turned to stone. My lungs are solid marble now so I can't exactly use them to breathe. There is a very ornate sculpture inside of me resembling a Draconequus heart within me... very good for decorating a mantlepiece but not so much for pumping blood. And while it is perfectly acceptable for you to think with a rock, I require a far more complicated apparatus. Come on Twilight! Use that fabled logic I hear you ponies like so much!
I can't breathe, my heart has stopped, and my brain is non-functional. Discord finished. What does that mean?
Gonna try to get the new chapter out tomorrow. Fingers crossed.
Fingers crossed!
