Rise of the Draconequus

A Wicked Plot

Discord wandered away from the clearing to plot. As he floated through the trees, he shuddered in disgust. He touched down on the ground and picked up a fragrant blue flower. "Bleh, gag me! Everything here makes too much SENSE!" He sniffed the flower and it withered instantly. "Much better. Ooh, what's this?"

A white rabbit dashed up to Discord and sniffed at his deer-hoofed leg. The enormous beast of chaos gently picked up the rabbit with his lion paw. "Aw," Discord cooed. "You're so CUTE!" He grimaced. "Cute makes me sick!" With a snap of clawed fingers, the rabbit grew long, spindly deer-like legs.

Startled, the rabbit tried to run, but its new legs collapsed under the stress. Discord flopped to the ground and roared with laughter. Seized with an idea, Discord snapped his clawed fingers again. The deer-rabbit abomination stood up and began to speak, "I live only to serve and obey you, Lord Discord.

"Perfect," Discord purred. "Go draw me a bath. I have chaos to wreak."

"What exactly is a 'bath,' Lord Discord?" asked the rabbit, confusion etched on its face.

"Ugh. This again? Need to get better slaves." With a wave of his paw, a bathtub instantly appeared in the middle of the forest. "Now, was that really so difficult?"

The draconequus stretched out in the bathtub and gestured again. The tub instantly filled with a bizarre mixture of cotton candy and chocolate milk bubbles. His red tail lazily flicked in and out of the tub as he idly popped milk bubbles with his griffin claw. He snapped his fingers and a yellow toy duck appeared from nowhere. He squeezed it with his lion paw and it let out a foghorn blast.

Birds scattered at the noise, which sent Discord into peals of laughter. He squeezed it again and a frog's croak emerged from the toy. Discord laughed uproariously. Another squeeze and an explosion sounded, followed by a sneeze, then a baby's giggle.

"Alright. Playtime's over, my little ponies." He tossed the duck aside, where it exploded in the distance with a fant squeak. Discord drew a circle in the air, which trasformed into a shimmering portal.

'I told you those Pegasi would foul everything up,' came the melodious voice of Princess Platinum. 'We asked for a cloudless day, and we get nothing but rain!'

'The sun's drying up the South Fields, Chancellor,'

'These crops are almost rancid! Can't the earth ponies grow better than that?'

'If we don't get rain soon, we'll starve!'

Voice after voice crowded through the portal and Discord's grin grew wider and wider. He snapped his claws and the portal vanished.

Discord reached up his nonexistant sleeve for his nasty tricks. The rabbit slave watched in awe as Discord levitated a chocolate milk bubble in the air and blew on it. It froze instantly. Discord reached out to the frozen bubble and crushed it. When he opened his hand, four ponies made of ice and wind galloped across his palm. Gently, he lifted his palm to his lips and blew the ponies away. They galloped off into the distance with a faint whinny.

“What were those, Lord Discord?” asked the rabbit.

“Just a little something to keep the ponies in delectable chaos. Arreviderci, Harmony!”
