//------------------------------// // Chapter 7 // Story: Discord the Writer // by Creativa-Artly01 //------------------------------// At the Canterlot castle, Celestia just stares at the Discord statue. "How did you manage to break from cartoon to reality so easily?" she sighs. "How powerful truly are you?" Celestia stares at the statue once more then walks out of the room and off to her sister's quarters. Meanwhile in the human world, in bed that night, Lauren has nightmares of the battle from the day that she had with Discord. She has nightmares of possibly losing her show forever and of Discord binding her down. She wakes up screaming and begins rocking back and forth on the bed. Craig then wakes up and tries to reassure her and calm her down. "Shh, Shh, Lauren, honey, calm down, it's okay," says Craig in a calm voice. He strokes her back. "Do you want to tell me what happened today?" Lauren nods. "Fine," sighs Lauren, "I didn't tell you everything. Yes, I did have a fight with Discord this morning, actually, this entire week basically. He came into our realm. He tried to take over the show and did for awhile. He bound me up so I couldn't do anything until I managed to grab my magic pen to turn myself into Fausticorn and battle him. Twilight Sparkle then came into our world through a transportation spell and helped me. It took us five days to stop the out of control draconequus and two full days and nights to fix everything he messed up. It was just horrible. Just terrible. I don't know if I can do this anymore Craig because any time I sit behind my desk and pick up my pen all I see is myself being bound by Discord." She begins to cry. "I don't think I can do it anymore." She falls into his arms and continues to cry until she finally falls back asleep. He can see how much this has scarred and traumatized her. He'll tell her in the morning, but he knows, it's probably best that she toss in the towel and hand it over to M.A. Larson and Meghan McCartney.
