Sorry about the long wait. It's just that i was moving to another apartment and school work and drama and writer's block all decided to combine and **** my life over. But who cares about my personal dramas. right? On to the story!
Chapter 3: Meeting the Other Human
"And that pretty much sums up everything on the slaves. Yes, I know. It was a pretty jacked up time, but what's done is done. Any questions before I move on?" Royce finished another segment on the human race and its affairs, and by now, he could tell by the looks on each of the pony's faces, that they were very disgusted.
Royce started the story slowly, saying that their were two theories on how mankind had started: either from being created by the Big Man Upstairs, or from microscophic organisms which slowly evolved into homo sapiens. Each of the alien ponies took that very well. Then, he started to explain mankind's so called "accomplishmets". At first, they all looked calm, but when Royce moved into the slavery category and explianed the definition, the ponies started to make faces of anger. He managed to silence any outbursts by saying that slavery had indeed been abolished, and that the slaves lived good lives afterwards. After that, he moved on to the good times, like President John F. Kennedy, bless his soul. Princess Celestia had commented that from what she was hearing, he was a very good person. 'If only we had the chance to meet the man.' Royce thought to himself. Happy times didn't last long, however. When the ponies had heard that Kennedy had ended up being assassinated, which meant killed, Pinkie Pie had started to cry, as well as Fluttershy. Twilight Sparkle and Rarity attempted to calm those two down, Applejack, the dyke known as Rainbow Dash and Princess Luna threw insults at him.
"Now that's jus' flat out wrong, Royce. What kinda sick, twisted bunch a' loons would do somethin' like that? Your race disgusts me!"
"Applejack's right! You guys should all be ashamed of yourselves!"
" I agree. Royce, thou race has sicken us!"
Royce scrunched up his and threw his hands in the air. Making his voice annoying as humanly possible, he started to mock the three ponies.
"Oh, wah. Mah name's Applejack and Ah hate th' human race, blah, blah blah. My name's Gaybow Rash and i'm a lesbo, blah, blah, blah! And i'm Loo-loo and with my mighty medival voice i deem the human race un-worthy, blah, blah, blah!" This comment enraged the three alien horses, especially Princess Luna.
"THOU DARE MOCK THE ROYAL FAMILY! THOU WILL PAY WITH THY LIFE!"
Luna had raised her voice so loud, the force had sent Royce flying off the bed, spiraling to the nearest window and out it.
Arcanel Roviara took a seat on his neighbor Royce Torres' front porch. Smoothing his bright red sweatshirt and shorts, he took out his iPhone and dialed Royce's number and put the phone to his ear. He waited for the phone to stop beeping when he heard a faint, but distinctively loud voice coming from inside the house.
"Thou dare mock the Royal Family! Thou will pay with thy life!"
The next thing he knew, he heard a loud crash followed by a really loud scream. Aracnel looke up just in time to see an average height boy with dark hair curving upward at the front fall on the front lawn with a sickening thud. Arcanel burst from his seat and ran to his fallen friend. Turning him over, he saw blood running down Royce's face and coming out of his mouth, with his nose at an awkward angle.
"Oh, my God! Royce, are you okay!" He spun his head around the neighborhood, trying to find any other person that could help them. "Someone! Anyone! Help us!"
"Look! There goes another one of those humans!"
Arcanel craned his neck up to the window that Royce had fallen out of, and his jaw dropped. Sitting in the window as a small purple dragon. When he noticed that Arcanel was looking at him, he ducked back into the room. 'Did I just see what i think i saw? No, that's just impossible. But maybe..." Slowly, Arcanel lowered his unconscious friend back into the grass and stood up, staring at the broken window. Cupping his hands over his mouth, he shouted out to the window.
"HELLO? IS ANYONE UP THERE!" A female voice that sounded very familiar responded.
"NO, THERE ARE NO PONIES THAT HURT YOUR PAL ROYCE UP HERE, MISTER HUMAN!" There was a chorus of angry shouts directed towards the voice.
"PINKIE!"
'Oh, my god. It really is them! I can't believe this, I just can't!' Arcanel smiled, but frowned when he remembered his friend sitting on the lawn, battered, bloody and broken. Making sure no one was around to see him, he went over and carefully picked the unconscious Royce up from the floor and proceeded to carry him over to the porch. He yelled back up to the strangers in Royce's room.
"LISTEN, UH...MY FRIEND IS REALLY HURT. I MEAN REALLY, REALLY HURT RIGHT NOW. SO HURT, THEY MIGHT NEED TO MAKE A NEW WORD FOR IT. BUT THAT'S NOT THE POINT. WHAT I'M TRYING TO SAY IS THAT ROYCE NEEDS SOME SERIOUS MEDICAL AID, AND I MIGHT NEED SOME HELP FIXING HIM UP. I'D REALLY APPRECIATE IT IF SOME OF YOU WOULD BE WILLING TO HELP!" Arcanel bent down, raised the piece of carpet from the wooden floor and picked up the spare key his friend always leaves there. Hoistinf Royce back up on his shoulders, he unlocked the door and proceeded to walk inside.
Darkness. That's the only thing Royce could see right now. It was cold, but warm at the same time. He didn't know if he should shudder or fan himself. Not having anything to do, Royce started to walk. He was heading nowhere.
Or so he thought.
As he continued to walk, he noticed something out in the distance. Something brown and very tall. Letting his curiosity get the best of him, he continued to walk towards it. It was then that he noticed that it was walking, too. Closer to him. Royce stopped, as did the creature. He called out to it.
'Hey! Tall, brown and ugly! The hell am I? And what the hell are you supposed to be?'
'Now Royce, i'm sure your parents tought you better than that. You didn't have to hurt my feelings.' Suddenly, he tripped on a bananna peel, which made him fall into a mouse trap, face forward. The trap closed on his nose, and he yelled, hopping around and crying, attempting to pull the evil contraption off of his face. When he did, he threw it to the floor and started to curb stomp it. As he finished, he turned to the right and saw the creature standing next to him.
It was very tall. It had mismatched red and yellow eyes, one long snaggletooth, a long grey beard and eyelashes, and two mismatched horns. He had a lion arm and eagle claw, along with a goat and dragon's leg, his head one of a horse and his tail one of a dragon. Royce jumped back and got in an awkward defensive position.
'Whatever the hell you are, i know some serious moves. Trust me; I've watched Kung-Fu Hustle like over a billion times!'
The creature chuckled to himself, slithering over and wrapping himself around Royce. This made him let out a small meep as he froze completely, staring into the eyes of...what was this thing called? It looked like som sort of chimera. The chimera's face was dangerosely close to Royce's. Just when he was about to say something, the chimera spoke.
"Why, hello there, little Royce. An honor to meet one of my very first Elements of Disharmony!"
Short chapter is very short, but i had some stuff to do, and i uploaded this little thing so you guys know that i didn't quit on you! (I know, I'm THAT amazing.) See you people later in the next chapter, where Discord has a very long, uncomfortable conversation with Royce. (And to the owner of Arcanel: YOUR FRIGGEN' WELCOME, BRO!)
