The Diary of Diddy Discord

Diddy and Loony's story in Entry Thirty-Nine

There on the hillside, robes wrapped around his two claws, could be seen the most dashing knight ever to exist in the realms of the kingdom. He looked onto the chaotic surroundings and breathed in the delicious fresh air. ‘Ah, sweet,’ he said taking a sip of his glass containing the most ultimate power source you could find in Equestria or beyond: chocolate milk.

Beside him, slowly quickly making her way up the hill was the prettiest silliest bravest little filly ever to come into the land of ponies. The knight smiled to her and she smiled back, their joy warming the hearts of every plant growing among them.

“Welcome,” said the knight to the filly, “to the land of our dreams, The Land of Chaos.”

They began their trek through the area and up to the palace where they were greeted by the King in his large, crystal crown with his Queen stood loyally by his side. The King was glad to see the two heroes, for they were great friends of his and he would do anything for them (and them the same for him). It had been two years since he'd last seen their faces; around about the time when they had fought the great two headed pony-dragon-beast, the all powerful Nox, and had won. Ever since that moment King Blankety knew he owed these two a lot more than just a knighthood, but also a friendship as well.

Unfortunately it was not on happy business he had called them today.

“I’m afraid that my poor, darling daughter has fallen for witchcraft,” he told them. The knight gave a nod and his sidekick friend nodded her head along with his. “I don’t know why but she’s acting so weird,” the King said. “It seems she’s trying to turn my whole land into somewhere boring were nopony would want to live.”

“Why not call thine other knights?” asked the little filly. King Blankety and the Queen shook their heads in sorrow.

“They too have fallen for the curse and are trapped in their grey states forever.”

With one click of his hoof the knights walked in through the door magical revolving stairway. Drool fell from their lips and their eyes, like their bodies, remained stiff and lifeless. The knight sucked in his breath.

“Do not fear King Blankety,” he said, “I will save the Princess and the rest of the land.”

“So will I,” said the sidekick friend.

“Good,” said the King and clicked his hoof again. A massive carriage bald monkey showed up and the two heroes got on his back. The monkey made a weird noise and set off along the soap roads, slipping and sliding until they arrived at their destination. And what a horrible place they saw before them.

All of the soap roads had turned to filthy, disgusting soil and dirt. The usual fun things, like the popcorn plants and candyfloss clouds, had been turned into just regular old clouds and sweetcorn. Everything in the town seemed boring and out-of-place in the great almighty Land of Chaos. In the middle of all of this misery stood the young Princess, her white coat and rainbow mane blowing behind her in the softly moving breeze.

Magic shot out of her horn as she blasted everything with her ‘Make-everything-dull-ness spell’. Nopony was safe. Ponies began to look drab and acted with no joy in their hearts at all. It was painful to watch, especially for the bald monkey who ran away from the village with a yelp.

The knight’s sidekick friend ran into a corner out of fear (but quickly came out again because she was far too brave to run away. In fact she most likely just went somewhere else to do something brave for a few seconds).

“Princess,” said the dashing knight, “you don’t want to do this. This isn’t you.”

The white pony’s head shot round and stared at the two who dared to face her. She gave a laugh to see the knight and his sidekick friend.

“I do want to do this,” she said. “I want to make this place as boring as possible. The less fun their having the more power I have over what they do.”

She clicked her hoof and a mad swarm of six grey ponies shot out of the streets near the knight and the little filly. The two heroes bravely fought them off and knocked them to the ground. Nopony was a match for this knight (and the little blue filly).

“That’s impossible,” said the now evil Princess.” The knight laughed.

“Not impossible when you have chaos on your side.”

He clicked his left claw and charged at a wall. The Princess watched him as if he was doing the stupidest thing she’d ever seen, but secretly he had a cunning plan; for this knight wasn’t only just dashing but smart too. Just as he was about to hit the wall he clicked his claw again and a powerful beam of magic reflected off the bricks, which surprisingly gave a yell of pain; though of course the knight knew it would do this. The knight stopped running and pulled the magical monster off his hiding place.

“Nox,” he said, “I knew it would be you, you little coward.”

“That’s impossible,” said Nox, “how did you know? You’re not smart enough to have figured that out.”

“I guess there’s many things you don’t know about me Nox,” said the knight.

With a laugh Nox pulled himself away from the knight’s grasp and ran backwards. He caught hold of the Princess and held her closely to him.

“Fine Knight,” he said, “but you can’t stop me as long as I’ve got her. Nopony can get me as long as she’s on my boring, no-having-fun evil side.”

He gave an evil laugh typical of any evil villain/monsters in a story or play. The knight didn’t know what to do. He couldn’t harm the Princess, even if she had done horrible things to the Capital of The Land of Chaos, but he couldn’t let Nox get away with his evil plan to take over either.

His little brave sidekick friend gave a cough and pointed to a large floating pepper pot slowly making its way to our their area. The knight gave a small nod and they put their plan into action. The filly ran forwards at Nox, aiming for the gap between his two heads, and held his attention whilst the knight jumped onto the floating pot. From above he was able to drop down right onto the monster with his sword and stab it right where the sun don’t shine—the monster’s one weak spot. Nox gave a cry and fell to the floor in agony.

“No, not again. You can’t be that good. No pony is as perfect, dashing, smart and brave as you appear to be.”

And with that he fell down and burst into flames. The ponies regained their usual colour on the floor and woke up with a bad headache that they would feel for weeks (so much so that they wouldn’t notice when the sidekick friend stole all of her favourite food and drink out of the royal pantry).
The knight took hold of the Princess’ hoof and lifted her up. She wobbled slightly but the knight held her steady.

“How can I repay you o-loyal knight?” she asked, her eyes meeting his.

“Marry me,” he said to her. “And we’ll call it even. I may even save you from the next monster that comes along as well.”

“Oh, Knight, I would love to marry you,” she said, and they all lived happily ever after.



And the little filly, sidekick friend to the knight, was appointed ruler of the moon and stars and was happy too.

The End.
