The Rise of Discord

by malfarious


Uprising

As i stretched out to get rid of the crick in my bones I looked from pony to pony seeing which I should try to manipulate and who would be more fit to assist me. The one called Mustang looked unstable and clearly had a lot of doubts and seemed very hesitant to act and while I knew I could manipulate him I don't think he would be able live up to my expectations. Then there was Klondike who seemed more stronger but was definitely slower both physically and mentally. He also seemed to lack almost all my expectations of someone useful at the moment unless. Then it occurred to me at that moment that since i was free people would notice that I was unless I had somehow mirrored an illusion of myself to appear that I hadn't been disturbed. A cruel wicked smile played across my face that made the other ponies turn pale. "Whatever shall we do with the both of you?" In my mind I had my plan formed out perfectly and now all it took was for me to work my magic. "Dear Mustang so full of doubt and you hesitate with every waking moment. Aren't you tired of being used by everyone around you??The princess has you out here looking like a fool for her own personal delight and you just accept that don't you? What I have to offer is far more appealing to you than anything you could ever want here with these brain dead ponies"

"Don' listen to em' Mustang, me mum used to tell me stories bout a thing like em'. She said dat he was the spirit of disharmony and dat he'll do anything to cause chaos and destruction so that he can come to Equestria and destroy us all. She said his name was Discord. You have to listen to me we have to warn Celestia and get the mane 6 so they can send em back to the hellhole he crawled out of and then people will remember us as the heroes that warned Equestria of Discord. We'll be famous and never have ta work again think about it."Klondike annoyingly chimed in as if I was talking to him, the sniveling filly I need to get rid of him permanently but killing him would be too messy and I might lose Mustang altogether if i made him kill his own friend but then once again in my excellent majestic nature I had another brilliant idea that i had to applaud myself once I was out of this situation.

"Ohh i do enjoy debating with you very much Klondike but you are just too dumb to comprehend the full extent of anything besides yourself. You are selfish and pretentious and most of all annoying me so shut up for once in your life."With a quick blur of movement i was beside Klondike holding him by his throat clamping hard enough to stop all noise form escaping from him. With a wave of my free hand magical needle and thread sewed his mouth shut Klondike could do nothing as wave and wave of agony washed over with every time the needle went in and out of skin. I looked at him with a sick look of pleasure in my eyes then i remembered the plan and with that i threw him to the ground. Sadly he was still aware of his surroundings but i doubted he cared for little else but himself. I turned back to Mustang pure fear and distraught was on his face and i knew that though the tactic was harsh and more likely to push him away from me it only made it easier for me to influence him. " So Mustang what will you do now hmm? Your friend lies there as a example of my power will you serve me? I have something far more appealing then anypony could ever offer you as well....Freedom.." I let the shock of the words reach through to him and with a final look form him i knew that i had won him over. " First to cover up my steps so that these exchange stays between us all." I picked up Klondike with magic and dis-harmonized his whole body destroying his old body to look like mine. Klondike squealed in pain as his whole body was reconstructed. Finally when he was a splitting image of me i put him where my prison had been for so very long. "Any last words hmm?" I cared very little what he wanted or what he had to say but i knew that Mustang wanted to talk to him before his imprisonment.

" This is it Klondike I have made my decision and i don't expect you to understand but it's my decision to make and I know that this is for the best for both me and you. Maybe when you get out of there you'll join us too no matter what your my friend and that's whats keeping you alive. So hope that we don't take to long with taking over Equestria." I saw that Mustang was done and ripped the thread keeping him form talking. Klondike winced in pain and I could see that he was crying but it wasn't from pain. I looked at him with new found disgust as the tears fell from his eyes that looked so much like mine.

" Mustang I hope tha' you don' forget me and come back to visit sometime. Tell ma....." I cut him off as the prison closed around his face first and then quickly engulfed his whole body. I shuddered as it looked dead on like me in the same position and everything. I walked over and wiped away the tears to make an exact replica of how i had looked for so long. A huge sigh escaped both me and Mustang as the deed was finally done.

"So what do we do now boss?"Mustang looked at me hopefully with loyalty and respect in his eyes i grinned as I saw my plan formulating in my eyes. Soon it would be time when i would take over Equestria and destroy the mane 6 who defied me and threw me back in my prison. It was all a matter of time.
