//------------------------------// // Chapter 6 (Insanity Discovered) // Story: The Adventures Of Rift & Navi // by Riften //------------------------------// Adventures Of Rift & Navi Chapter 6 (Insanity Discovered) They had been walking for just under and hour when a thought came to one of them Rift~ “ Navi, Where are we going?” Navi~ “*Shrug* I don't know i just figured we would find something when we reached the end of this road.” Rift looked down only to see more sand. He stopped. Rift~ “ Navi, are you ok? Navi~ “ Well, i am getting a little tired of all this CHOCOLATE!” After a while of walking through this seemingly never ending maelstrom of chocolate rain Navi seemed to be uncharacteristically frustrated having after yelling up into the sky. Rift~ “ Why do you keep saying that? Theres nothing here but sand! What’s wrong with you?” It seemed this world was getting on the nerves of both of them Navi~ “ Whats wrong with me?! You’re just as drenched from all this as I am!” Rift~ “ Drenched?! In this weather?! I'm literally dying of thirst here!.” Navi~ "....But were basically swimming in chocolate milk here. Rift. I think something might be wrong with this place. You know other than the rain, and well pretty much everything here." Rift~ " Well. Somethings definitely off here, but I'm pretty sure it may have something to do with you acting like this." Navi~ " THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH ME!" She was shouting for the first time Rift had ever seen before. Navi~ " Your not making any sense!" There was a sudden chill in the air as a dull quite voice caught both their attentions ?~" Make sense? What fun is there in making sense?" It was a dull whisper, but both of them had heard it. Rift~ "What was that? Was that you?" Navi~" I didn't say anything, but i heard it to. Chills rode down both of their spines as a strange fog rolled up on both of them. They both backed into each other. Rift~" Navi. Listen, im sorry about yelling earlier, Just something about this place , its getting to me a bit. He was forcing a smile, looking lamely up into her eyes doing his best to look truly apologetic. She didn't say anything, her eyes lit up like they usually do when something exciting happens and she jumped to him embracing him in a hug. Navi~ I'm sorry for yelling for yelling too. Whatever's waiting for us in this place be it chocolate, or sand will not get in the way of Rift & Navi! Professional Adventurers!" She stood in a triumphant pose on as the fog that was slowly creeping up on them quickly disapeared turning into a large gust of ever convenient wind blowing her hair gracefully behind her. Rift~ " Yeah! We've been through worse than this! Lets Go!" And with their newfound determination they began to sprint to wherever the invisible road was taking them. That is until..... ~?~ ?~ " Oh congratulations! You two seem to have made up!" After their little display I figured I might as well pop down there and introduce them to who they're dealing with. Rift~ " Who...What are you?" Who am i? That question burned a whole through my mind. Who was I? Its been so long since I've actually used my name. I don't remember anymore. The two just sat there in horror as my patchwork frame floated in their air trying to come up with an answer. Well what better chance to give myself one? ?~ " Well you two are the ones in my domain so may i ask just who you are? Rift stepped forward prepared to answer when Navi came bursting forward yelling. Navi~ " I'm Navi and this is Rift! Were adventurers on a quest!" ?~ " A quest? How delightful. Well you see I'm...I am...Well truth be told i don't really know who or what I am. *Snickering* Those sort of things tend to slip away when you've been here as long as i have.” Rift~ “ Before you said “”Your Domain”” what did you mean?” ?~ “ Yes, This, wonderful creation as you see here is my domain.” Rift~ “ Big deal you made a bunch of sand!” ?~ “ Oh yes, your still delusional arnt you? Well lets fix that shall we? Give you a sight at real wonder.” A quick snap of my claw and the small pony flinched like before, turning back and forth looking in confusion as he saw my world for what it truly was. Rift~ “ W-What is this?! What did you do?” ?~ “Hey all i did was make you see what was really here. Don't blame me for your... Delusions.” Navi~ “ I told you i wasn't crazy.” Rift~ “ Yeah, you did.” The little fool was still turning in place taking in all the wonderful chaos that was going on around him. ?~ “You see the moment you two entered my world i was watching you. For i am not just a normal creature you'd encounter in the wild, or for that matter anywhere else." Rift~ " Well you should Stop Following us!" At that he bucked a nearby stone at me. I don't think ill bother moving. The stone simply flew right through me as if i wasn't there. Rift~" What just happened? What are you?!" There was that question again. ?~ " You see I am not a physical being like the two of you. Well at least not here. My physical form exists else where trapped in stone. So I made this place. Here with my last remnants of magic. A place for my mind to be free while i waited for my body to catch up." And then it hit me. After Hundreds of years of trying to forget what i was i remembered. I spoke to them with the widest grin i could muster ?~" I am the spirit of chaos and disharmony, and this is my land. For I am Discord".
