//------------------------------// // A Dark Laughter // Story: A Chaotic Destiny // by Fantasy Stars 789 //------------------------------// Azure had been 10 years old now. Her magic had been better, much better, though not enough to heal herself or defend herself from LARGE creatures. She had snuck out of her home to take a walk in the Everfree Forest. She had accidentally walked too far into the forest; she had almost gotten lost. Suddenly she heard some ponies talking. "Daddy, when will we take over?" Screwball said, who was the same age as Azure. Azure glanced over and saw Discord. Not knowing what he was she was intimidated at first but continued to watch. "Now my dear, we must wait until those ponies are off-guard. Why they have forgotten about us by now!" Discord said with laughter in his voice. "And this time... we will win!" They both laughed, and Azure had left. The next day Ponyville seemed weird... The clouds were pink and poured chocolate milk. Plants began to turn into candy... "Azure whatever you're doing STOP!" Obsidia said. "I'm not doing this!" Azure said remembering Screwball and Discord in the forest. Gasp! "They have magic?!" Azure thought. Suddenly the two came out bursting in laughter. "Screwball my dear, that was genius!" Discord said. "Discord!?" Twilight said. The rest of the mane 6 were by Twilight's side with their elements. "How'd he even gets out?" the mane 6 all thought. They do not know about Screwball. Azure watched as the others fled. "You'd better turn Ponyville back to normal or-" Twilight got cut off. "Or what? I'm not playing games with you Twilight, not this time." Discord said as he removed their elements. "Hey! Give those back you big meanie!" Rainbow Dash said. "Oh! And don't forget princess pretty's little horn." Discord said and took her horn. Screwball laughed as the two teleported away, spreading more chaos. Azure knew she shouldn't be laughing but she found the chaos funny. All of Equestria had chaos, except for the Crystal Empire. Somehow, its magic was able to keep it safe. Azure had also felt confused, she had not known who these ponies were. "Girls, find the elements. I need to find a unicorn strong enough to bring my magic back." Twilight said. "Good Luck!" The mane 6 split apart trying to make their way through the chaos. Azure had decided to follow Discord and Screwball, using her magic to hide. "What shall we do next?" Discord said. "Ooh! How about the grass into... Porcupine quills!" Screwball said using her magic. Quickly a pony slid on the soapy roads and onto the quills. He quickly ran away before no more than 4 could hit him. "Flying cakes!" "Speedy turtles!" "Candy houses!" Teleporting Poison Joke!" Screwball said as she turned everything into chaos. Suddenly Azure (who was invisible) slipped on the soapy road and into some bushes. They turned around. "Huh?" Screwball said. "Some pony is here..." Discord said as he had undone her invisibility spell. Azure ran away as quickly as she could using her wings to go faster. They looked at her confused. "Was it just me or did that pony have wings? How could she have done the spell?" Discord said. On the other hand, the mane 6 went to the tree of harmony, and found the elements, well all but Twilight's crown. Twilight had visited Canterlot, to see the princesses, but they weren't there! Twilight continued to roam the castle and went to the colored glass windows. She saw one that had her in it and her Crown! Twilight tapped the glass and magically she got her horn and her element. She ran to the others to put an end to this once and for all. "Your tyranny is over Discord!" Twilight shouted. Discord turned around in surprise. Screwball left before they could see her. Discord had smiled, for he had a plan. They had used their elements against him, he turned to stone... They had tried to bring his statue back to the Canterlot Gardens, but when they tried to carry it, It Was Carboard! "What!? Where did he go?!" Rainbow Dash shouted looking around. "Why we need to find him don't we?!" Rarity said. "No girls. We shall wait until he strikes again. Until then we must wear our elements at all times." Twilight responded. Discord and Screwball had teleported away, and their chaos had to end.
