//------------------------------// // Chapter the tenth - When i'm chaotic // Story: Into The Void // by Doctor Whooves PhD //------------------------------// Chapter the Tenth – When I’m Chaotic Meanwhile, back in Canterlot, things made about as much sense as a vase full of cheese drizzled with maple syrup. The weather still tasted purple, a cool, lemony breeze blowing gently through the soft minty grass. Periodically, budgies flew around the city, snatching the flapjack roof tiles from everypony’s houses. Canterlot castle was no longer embedded into its grand mountain, but instead floated around and around the peak. Discord let out a hearty laugh. He was sitting in a tall throne, Un-eating a juicy red pear, enjoying the whizzing of the palace as if it were a carnival ride. His plans to drag Equestria into chaos were going swimmingly. Nopony was expecting his return, and thus taking the throne was laughably easy. He stood up, throwing the pear behind him, not looking back at the cool explosion, and gazed upon his beautiful changes to the world. Things were a lot better than back when boring Celestia was in charge. Now, everypony’s day was filled with plenty of fun surprises! Which path would actually lead into town, and which one would suddenly change to toothpaste? When would the sun be up, and when would the parasprites show up for their daily feast? Nopony knew! However, there was one tiny little itsy-bitsy thing that nagged at his mind. This “Doctor” pony was different than the other ponies in the land. It was as if he had dealt with crazy mixed up scenarios before. Discord couldn’t quite put his claw on it. How had this “Doctor” defeated his first two chaos ponies? Any other pony would have been surrounded, pounded, and grounded in ten seconds flat, but not this one. He seemed to know what being a hero entailed. No matter, though. The Draconequus also knew what he was doing. Discord gave himself a pat on the back. He was doing a pretty good job at holding The Doctor back, if he did say so himself. He knew he didn’t have anything to worry about. He moonwalked around the castle, drawing silly faces on all the portraits of famous rulers throughout History. Giggling, he crudely drew his own face over Celestia’s, and scribbled out her name, and writing in “Discord is 9020% cooler than ALL of the other rulers!” “Soon, everypony will come to realize that there was no way their boring old life could EVER beat THIS!” The confused cries for help from the ponies down in the city delighted him. They clearly didn’t know what was going on. Discord yawned. Being the very best like Nopony ever was before him was busy work. He donned his sunglasses, and leapt into his collection of actual clouds, having replaces them with wispy candy floss, and stretched out. “I’ll deal with The Doctor in the next couple of chapters!” Discord said smiling, as he quickly fell asleep, tired from his hard work.
