I had fun writing this episode, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did! Disclaimer: All the characters belong to Hasbro. My Little Evil Tales VI Pinkie Pie: A matter of chaos. -0- Happiness is one of the most common emotions for the ponies in Equestria. The bliss of absolute happiness and joy, however, was something most ponies didn’t experience often. Take Pinkie Pie, for example, who despite her cheerful personality and being happy most of the time, has never experienced happiness with such a great intensity as today. But what was the reason for her absolute happiness? Simple, the world had decided to finally start making sense and turn itself into a living party with chocolate rain included that resembled something out of her wildest and funniest dreams! The joyful pink pony quickly trotted out in order to enjoy the wonders outside, but found that her door led to an upside down house. This, of course, made her laugh for almost a minute, and her laughter only increased when she tried another door and ended up in a closet. Five tries later and much to her delight, she finally got out of her house and immediately jumped into a puddle of chocolate milk. Pinkie Pie noticed then that every other pony didn’t seem to enjoy this change as much as she did; they in fact seemed to loathe it. This puzzled her, as she could not understand what was wrong with them or why they stared at her as if she were crazy. There was nothing wrong with enjoying these random and silly happenings (and the many sweets that accompanied it) while they lasted, because Pinkie Pie was certain that everything was just too perfect to last for long. Sighing, Pinkie decided that she would not let those party-poopers bother her with their annoying stares; she was simply having too much fun to care about them! Her choice made, Pinkemina ignored every other pony and focused on enjoying the marvels the day was granting her. And she enjoyed them to the fullest until her friends decided it was time to put an end to whatever was allowing her to have so much fun… -0- “Eternal Chaos comes with chocolate rain you guys! …CHOCOLATE… RAIN!” The Avatar of Chaos smiled from his hiding place in Celestia's colorful castle as he heard that simple phrase. She was so filled with joy at the prospect of enjoying what his chaos had to offer. So enthusiastic about his work and so full of... potential. It seemed that during the eons he had spent… restrained, a pony that could understand and dare he say worship? The beauty of chaos had been born. Was it worth a shot to use her as a contingency plan? Discord grinned. Yes. It would be so very worth it. He would have to test her first, of course... corrupt her and plant the seed of chaos inside her so that in the eventuality that the six recovered from what he was planning to do, she would become his triumph card. And he did just that. -0- He intercepted her in the hedge maze and made her forget the joy of laughter, replacing it with scornfulness and a shade of deviousness, turning her into a full time grouch. Ah, he also placed a hint of wanting for the joy and fun she had just experienced in his world; for that wanting... that desire to experience again the chaos only he could provide would be the key to his triumph, because his seed of chaos was hiding there; would it work? Yes, it would. He knew it would. He was absolutely, positively certain. She was, after all, a potential hurricane of beautiful chaos. And she understood him, or rather… she understood what he represented and she could find joy in it… just like he did. Discord smiled mischievously, he doubted things would go so far that he would need to use the lovely pink pony the way he had planned, even if deep down he was craving it. Having a willing follower would surely be… interesting, and perhaps even fun. -0- Not unexpectedly, but still surprising nonetheless, Celestia's disciple had managed to heal her friends from the apathy he had struck them with. Still, Discord was pretty confident that this pack of little ponies couldn't make the Elements work at full strength. Sure, these fillies might have tapped on the power of Harmony to defeat Nightmare Moon but unlike the corrupted version of the night princess, it would take the full power of each of the dreadful elements to stop him and as far as he knew, only the magic of the two royal Alicorns could unleash it! And the avatar of chaos knew quite well that Princess Luna was still not at full strength, he had checked that before he started this game. Then again... there could be a reason to be slightly... alarmed. Not that he would show it, of course. Showing concern was not fitting for the embodiment of Chaos. But just then, while he was considering creating a distraction or to simply send these obnoxious ponies to a roaming asteroid, she did exactly what she was supposed to do. She left her friends' side! Granted, it had been only for an instant and only to enjoy one of his many gifts to this boring land of Equestria: The chocolate rain from his cotton candy clouds. But the fact remained that she had chosen his chaos over her friends. And that was precisely what he had been hoping for. Because that meant his seed of chaos had taken hold! And the beauty of it was that it had happened because even now, at the most crucial of moments, she still understood and appreciated the beauty of chaos. But that didn’t mean he would need to use her. At least not yet. So he instead decided to yawn, taunting the girls and attempting to break their concentration. It didn't work, unfortunately, and the jewels in their necklaces started shining and shooting colorful beams of light. Discord realized with almost paralyzing fear what would happen next. That disgusting rainbow would be unleashed on him and order would return! -0- It seemed he would have to use the ace he had up his sleeve after all, which was adequately chaotic since he wore no shirt and hence had no sleeves; not to mention that the identity of his ace would also break the organized effort of the annoying fillies in front of him. “Pinkemina, I can give you what your heart desires,” Discord called and, much to her friends' horror, Pinkie's concentration faltered a little. “Yes, Pinkie Pie, you and I are very much alike! Only you among all the lesser ponies could appreciate this world I created: A world of laughter, cotton candy clouds and chocolate. You are special, can't you see?” “Oh, I know I'm special!" Pinkie smiled, but quickly became thoughtful. "And about this whole mess you caused... hmm... well... I guess some of the things you did were actually funny... and the chocolate rain and candy cotton clouds were really pretty tasty, I liked them a lot!” “Pinkie! Don't listen to him and concentrate!” The purple unicorn scolded, trying to bring her friend back to full attention. Twilight Sparkle had felt both Pinkie's sudden doubts and the way the others had started to struggle in order to compensate for their friend's distraction. That was bad, the powers of the elements were going out of balance and she could not allow that. They would never defeat Discord like that. “This is no time for thinking about fun and games! Pinkie! Quit it and pay attention!” Discord smiled as he sensed his chance. That bothersome unicorn had made a very, very poor choice of words. “In my world, it is always time for fun and games, my dear Pinkemina,” the Spirit of Chaos assured with a friendly smile and a charming glint in his eyes. “It’s just like a party that never ends! Look around you, isn't this the way a party at its very best should be?” The pink pony actually looked all around her appreciating the woodland creatures running around without any particular order, the group of dancing buffalo, the pegasi flying upside down over there, the floating houses… and the chocolate rain. The balance of the elements weakened some more, much to the panic of her friends whom actually grunted some alarmed demands for her to 'snap out of it!' in her direction. Those calls for her to focus on stopping Discord vexed the pink pony. What did Twilight and the others know about fun, anyway? She was the one who always organized their parties! Twilight and the others wouldn't recognize fun even if it hit them in the face with a bag full of apples while wearing a bright yellow sweater! But unlike them, she could recognize fun and she could not deny that Discord’s world was very, very fun. And she couldn’t deny that she hadn’t yet had enough of it! Who in their right mind could get enough of a world were sweets were everywhere and no rules applied? It was like a permanent party, just like Discord had said! Pinkie Pie understood then that she had fallen in love with this new, fun world, and she suddenly found the idea of seeing it gone as something unacceptable. Why couldn’t her friends appreciate and understand it just like she did? “Come to my side Pinkie,” Discord urged once he noticed the doubt in his target had reached the breaking point; just one little push and she would be his for all eternity. “You can help me make things even funnier than they are now, and I can give you the power to do it... together, we can have fun in eternal chaos! And don't you remember what comes with eternal chaos?” “Of course I do! Eternal chaos comes with chocolate rain!” Pinkie sang happily, her mouth watering as she recalled the taste of the cacao flavored milk. “That's right, and I can give you that plus all the fun your heart desires!” the lord of disorder promised. “All you have to do is join me. Come with me, be my partner and live forever in a world of fun and happiness! Together, we can show these ponies what your idea of real fun is! Wouldn't you like that?” “My idea of real fun...?” Pinkie Pie smiled excitedly at the offer; a world made according to her ideas of fun… a world full of sweet randomness, candy and silly pranks? It would be perfect! Yes, perfect! How could she refuse to an offer like that? “Pinkie, no!” Twilight and the others screamed. The jewel grafted on Pinkie's necklace had already stopped shinning. “What in Celetia's name are you doing?” “Sorry guys, but he's right!” the pink pony said with a smile as she gently descended from her floating position. Her necklace fell to the ground as soon as she touched down and was immediately forgotten. “But don't worry! I'll make sure that you all learn how to love this wonderful, fun world just as much as I do!” Saying nothing more, Pinkie Pie bounced all the way to the expectant Avatar of Chaos, who was just too glad to let her bask in his own power, sharing with her some of it, just enough to let her taste it and make sure she would never want to leave him. -0- Laughing just like she always did when her joy reached its apex, Pinkie Pie wasted no time in using the exhilarating power of chaos she had just received to create a snowstorm of multicolored marshmallows, followed by several geysers that gushed out a flood of warm chocolate milk. And so, amidst hers and Discord's laughter, the age of Eternal Chaos began. -END- And with this chapter, "My little evil tales" is complete; I want to thank everyone for your nice and helpful comments, I hope that you found some entertaining in reading this collection, thanks for reading!
