//------------------------------// // Start act three // Story: Theory of nothing // by Elidjz //------------------------------// "A house is supposed to have four walls. So why did you break the fourth one?!"  "HAHAHYAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHIHAHHIHHAHHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHYAHIHYAHAHAHHA" "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA" "Laughter." The blinding light from the amulet slowly faded out leaving only laughter behind. The first thing I saw was Cosmo with his snout intact, all wounds that I had inflicted on him having disappeared. He looked amused and with one look the armor he had given me had disappeared. The only thing that remained was the mace. "keep it as a gift." "Thank you, oh thank you for ending those three thousand years of boredom." "And for putting violence back into fun" "You should stop speaking as this will delay any events from happening by a lot." "Aaaaaw" The three individuals let out a loud laughter. Well two as the third one only let a halfhearted chuckle out. Well referring to them as three individuals might be wrong. One bipedal three-headed, six-armed individual would be more accurate. It reminded "Hey, I identify as an chaotic being, so please refer to me using the proper pronouns." "She means she. Because our biological sex is female." She... "Plural." They reminded me of Discord.  The body at least as it was long and slender covered in patches of fur and scales. Their legs were also similar to discord's, one being a pony hoof and the other looking like it belonged to a dragon. Same for the arms.  The left Ones were from a dragon, one from a diamond dog and one clearly a griffon. The right ones were one that ended in a hoof instead of a hand, another diamond dog one but with a different fur coloration and the last one came from a pink hippogryph. One difference between them and Discord is the length of the limbs. They were all much longer and better proportionate in comparison with the main body. The legs were also longer than the arms. They were also wearing some big piece of cloth covering her chest and goind around the waist and covering the hips and everything in between. However the main difference between them and Discord were the heads. because there were three heads attached to the body. "Correct." The one on the right clearly belonged to a grey furred diamond dog and was wearing a blindfold. there were some four or five pairs of horns jutting out of the back of her head. One of the horns looked like it was coming out of the eye socket, cutting through the blindfold. "That one gives me a constant itch." "She's judging me." The one on the left looked like that species of big eared foxes. were it not for the fact that she had so many teeth and that they were so big that she couldn't even close her mouth. It was stuck in a never-ending unnerving and very wide smile. Her yellow fur did look very nice. "Why is she unbothered by my presence? She should be bothered, I would be in her place." The head of the one in the center looked like Discord's head, but female. Like literally. No need to give any kind of extra description of the middle head. "Ouch. Another reason to punch him though. Also again why is she unbothered?" One of the six arms pointed at a pink mush on the ground. "Because the cerebral matter in charge of fear and coherent thought were both thrown out of her skull. And because you wanted that to happen, so it happened." They grabbed the piece of the ground before shoving it back into my skull. "You're no fun." "And you talk toomuch." I still stood there staring at the strange sight. "Her brain is back in one piece so why is she still unbothered?" "I'm pretty sure that you broke her." Cosmo chipped in. "So, while she's having a mental breakd..." "What the FUCK is happening!?" I suddenly shouted. Both Cosmo and the three headed individual stared at me in amusement. My mind simply could not withstand more of this nonsense. "Three..." said the blindfolded head.  "Everything is ready." Twilight said enthusiastically. A rift was opened with the enchanted scissors, as Luna prepared to thro the tether through." "Two..." "Wait, she's not staying? I was about to show her my chimera." The head in the center said disappointedly. "She's rude like that." Cosmo answered. "She really needs to work on her social skills." He added. Trixie's mind was telling Trixie that leaving was the wisest decision to make. Even if it involved Trixie jumping into the rift."She doesn't even know our name." The tether was thrown through. Celestia and Starlight kept the rift open, while Luna and Twilight held onto the tether. "There's a hole in the Eastern wall." Pinkie said out of nowhere. "What?" Asked pretty much everyone present. "What? Everyone knows that the Eastern wall of any building is also known as the fourth wall. And there's a lot of holes in it." "One..." "Before you leave let me show you my chimeras." This got my attention. The rest of Trixies mind was telling me to simply leave and that I would regret staying for even a second. The being then snapped two of her fingers. One in a left hand and one in a right hand. Suddenly both one aberration and one void jumper. The aberration had a long slender birdlike head and a long snake tail for a lower body. The void jumper was covered in dull red scales, fluffy orange fur and had a pair of short stubby horns on the back of its head. Both looked very confused. They then grabbed the aberration and void jumper and slammed them together. Both creatures shouted in shock and a few limbs flew away. What remained was one strange bipedal creature. It was covered in scars, stitches and even duct tape. It had the birdlike head that belonged to the aberration. It was still pitch black, however it now had a pair of stubby horns, a mouth with sharp teeth (likely belonging to the void jumper) and its left eye now looked normal, white with a yellow iris.  Its arms and legs were covered in stitches, as it switched from furred to scaled to complete darkness. The tail that used to be the aberrations lower body was now attached to the back of its body like normal tails. But with duct tape and nails. The rest of the body looked similar. It looked like someone had taken two completely different creatures, cut them into pieces and stitched them back together into one singular creature. Which was busy smiling. "Beholed, the chimera!" Shouted the middle head. "Take at least two creatures, alongside whatever inanimate object you need, add some water and you've got a chimera. Also zero." After having seen that, Trixie decided to jump into the rift to get away from here. For the sake of both my mental and physical health. Using some levitation magic I propulsed myself towards the rift. And I succeeded. "At my signal we p..." Twilight tried to say before being unceremoniously being pulled through the rift they had created. Luna, who was also holding onto the tether, was pulled alongside her. Pinkie leapt after them but landed on the ground as the rift closed. "That wasn't part of the script!" Pinkie shouted, her face covered in dirt. "That... wasn't supposed to happen, wasn't it?" Starlight asked hesitantly. Celestia simply stared at where her sister and ex-student stood a second ago. A feeling of dread entered her mind.  Maybe Luna had been right to worry. "I have to admit, I did not expect her to be so bold." Cosmo said nonchalantly. "She's rude. She never introduced herself and never let me introduce myself. The two, or four, of them stared at the still open rift. And then the three heads snapped one of its fingers. The rift suddenly closed. "Luna is on her way." The blindfolded head said. The being snapped her finger again. "This will buy us some time. Because I need to make more chimeras." "VengenceVengenceVengence." The one with extremely long teeth looked ecstatic. "I'll be taking my leave." Cosmo said. "You're not staying?" The middle head said disappointedly. "Oh I'll be watching, but from a distance. And if things get boring I might intervene." Cosmo then disappeared. "Well, now we've got to prepare for the sixth act. "Wasn't it the second act?" "You're great when it comes to exposition and convenient plot progression, but you just don't know when to shut up do You."
