//------------------------------// // Chapter 1: Chaos God Meeting/Reunion // Story: Gravity Foals: Bill in Equestria // by DockingWater17 //------------------------------// It was a calm night, like most in Equestria. No sounds at all. Even right outside the Everfree Forest. However, something interesting was about to happen in Fluttershy’s cottage. In the cottage, Discord was sleeping, having a peaceful dream that was cut off by some outside force. Then, another dream started instantaneously. The dragonesque was in the middle of a strange field. The grass around him fell in the shape of a pyramid with one eye and a top hat, as well as arms and legs. Then, the area became a light blue and a laughter was heard. “I know that laugh.” Discord said to himself. “Show yourself!” All of a sudden, and creature came out of the ground who was shaped exactly like the area in the grass, being yellow pyramid with one eye and a black top hat. “Well well well well well.” The creature said while duplicating and spinning around Discord. “Aren’t you a sight for sore eye? Discord! My old pal.” “Bill Cipher.” The crazy mix of animals replied with a more angry tone. “What are you want?” “Don’t play dumb with me, spirit of chaos. You knew I’d be back.” Bill exclaimed as his clones mess with the dragonesque before going back to the main one. “You can’t keep that spell book safe forever.” The triangle snaps his fingers and a book appears above his hand. “You’ll slip up and when you do.” Bill opens the book and a giant upside down triangular portal activates above his head. “Get out of here. You don’t have any dominion in our world.” Discord yelled at the other chaos god. “Maybe not right now,” Bill replied “but things change, Discord. Things. Change.” His voice becoming more sinister during the last word or two. He laughs in the same tone as he floated up into the portal. Then, Discord woke up. “I have to warn them. He’s coming.” That morning, Discord woke Fluttershy up early. “We need to go to the Castle of Friendship. Now.” “Why?” The shy pegasus asked. “I have something very important to tell every pony. Now let’s go. Prepare for teleportation.” He teleported Fluttershy and himself to the front of the castle and knocked on the door urgently. “I wonder who would be here so early.” Twilight said curiously. “Can you get the door Spike?” “On it.” Her assistant opened the door and Discord flew to the Cutie Map as fast as he could, dragging Fluttershy for the ride. “Discord? What are you doing? Where are you going?” Spike asked. He ran after Discord. They past Twilight, who started to follow as well. “How do I activate this thing?” Discord asked. “I can do it with my magic,” Twilight explained, “but I can only do it in extreme emergencies.” “WELL THIS IS AN EXTREME EMERGENCY!” Discord yelled. “Ok. Fine. Who should I call?” Twilight asked. “Every pony.” Discord replies. “Ok then.” Twilight lights her horn and each of the Mane 6’s Cutie Marks aside from Twilight’s and Fluttershy’s appear around the castle on the map. A few minutes later, the rest of the Mane 6 run into the room. “We came here as fast as we could,” Applejack said. “What’s going on? Why were we all needed?” “I have something very important to tell every pony,” Discord explained. A scroll appeared in his hand. He unrolled it to reveal Bill. “Does any of you recognize this symbol?” “My dream!” All of the Mane 6 exclaimed. “Wait. Did you all see Bill in your dreams?” Discord asked. “I guess so.” Twilight said. “How do you know him?” “It all started back when I was defeated by the princesses.” ----- Princess Celestia fired a rainbow beam from the Elements of Harmony. Discord didn't notice the beam until it was too late. The beam overtook his body and slowly turned him to stone. However, his soul wasn't trapped in his stone coffin like he thought it would for very long. Instead, he somehow ended up in a realm filled with floating objects of all kinds. "Well, well, well. Look who it is." A voice from behind Discord said. The chaos god turned to see Bill. "A random mess of different animals." He laughs "I'm just kidding. I know who you are Discord." "Who are you? And how do you know my name?" The spirit of chaos asked curiously. "Also, where are we?" "I know lots of things. L o t s o f t h i n g s." The triangle responded. "The name's Bill Cipher, and we're in the Nightmare Realm, a realm between all dimensions." "Well, I guess I should head back to Equestria now. While it's a pleasure to meet you, I have a couple princesses to turn to stone." Discord says before snapping his fingers, but nothing happens. "Wait, what? Why can't I open a portal." "While your soul is here," Bill began to answer Discord's question," your physical body, and all your powers, are still in Equestria. It looks like you'll be here a while." "Dang. Welp. I'll just be watching over Equestria while I wait for the next 1,000 years." Discord says, with a bit of anger in his voice. "Hey. You could hang with me if you want. I'm impressed by what you've done to Equestria." Bill replies. "You deserve a prize of some sort. Here, have a head that's always screaming." Bill claps his hands and a head pops into existence that continually screams. "You're insane." Discord says, smiling. "Sure I am, what's your point?" The triangular dream demon replies. "I like you," Discord answers. "and I'll take you up on your offer. I feel like we'll have a great time." ----- Discord continued to explain the background. "Later down the line, Bill said that if we worked together, he could also gain a physical form here so we could cause even more chaos. However, when I befriended you ponies, Bill got really angry. Now he wants to take things into his own hands." "How do we stop him?" Twilight asked. "We must stop him from getting this book." Discord snaps his fingers and a hologram of a book titled "Interdimentional spells". "If he gets his hands on this spell book, he would be able to open a portal to Equestria and gain a physical form, and if he's able to do that, all hope is lost since even I can't stand up to him." "Ha. All we have to do is stop a being who's powerless without a physical form from getting a book?" Rainbow Dash asks rhetorically. "That seems too easy." "That's because it is." Discord replies, "Bill may seem powerless, but he can posses anyone he wants aside from anyone who can enter my dreams like myself, Luna, or Celestia." "Wait. How can we protect ourselves then?" Twilight asked. "Well, there's a spell that Luna knows to protect other's minds from the influence of dream demons like Bill," Discord answered, "so we must go to see her." And with that, the others nod and they run out to Canterlot.
