(Chaos’s P.O.V)         These ponies were… interesting. The rainbow one was flaming mad. The purple one was happy to see her… brother maybe? Or lover? Ehh.. not my problem at the moment.         “So what is the deal, you wish to make with me?” The ponies look towards me as Celestia and Luna start to converse with each other. Quickly growing bored I summon myself a gallon of chocolate milk to keep myself busy as I await the deal. Oh… hello there what are you? ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ (Celestia’s P.O.V)         “So what should we ask for in this deal?” I ask as I turn to Luna.         “I say that we shouldn’t even think about making a deal with him.” Luna remarked as she looked at Chaos with a hateful glare.         “So you want a very powerful creature that has no problem with harming our subjects.” I say with an exaggerated roll of my eyes. Luna’s head turned toward the cold stone brick floor as she contemplated what to do. I myself had multiple ideas of what to do but I wanted to hear her counsel on the matter. It was a diarchy after all.  Both of us must make the correct choices that help the country and it’s citizens.         “What if we asked him to help us, in court?” Luna offered, my response was an incredulous expression. . “Please explain your logic, dear little sister of mine.” I asked her, to explain her asinine idea. “We both know that we are slowly losing ground and power in the courts, all of the nobles are slowly making more laws that we can handle. You don’t even get to chose your own Sun Guard, and they don’t even want me to have any power, I’ve been less and less informed of law meetings as well as council meetings. We need someone who won’t take any shit from the nobles but is also as powerful as us so they aren’t in danger from assassins. The only reason that we haven’t been taken down is that we are the only people that know how to move the celestial bodies. Well we have to come do a decision, he won’t just keep waiting for us to decide. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ (3rd Person P.O.V) Celestia turns from her sister with a glare as they come to a choice. As she looks at Chaos her eyes get wide as she see’s what he is playing with. “Chaos where did you get that?” Celestia asked with a slight tinge of fear in her voice. Chaos held up the dark purple helmet in his hands. “Oh this?” He said as he held up the helmet, as Luna took a few steps back. “This has some serious dark magic in it,” Luna lowered her head a tad as she felt embarrassed. “That is the helmet of Nightmare Moon, an evil entity that took over my sister, when she lost herself to her anger.” Chaos laughed after the story behind the helmet. Celestia and the rest of the ponies in the room glared at him. Chaos stopped laughing, as he saw the glares confusion taking over his features. “You can’t sense it, can you?” Chaos ask with confusion no longer taking over his features. Celestia along with the rest looked at him confused. Sense what? Chaos sighed as he tossed the helmet into the air in the middle of the room and it started to slowly rotate as letters and runes started to peel off of the helmet showing a dark pink gem. “This gem requires a direct link to the powersource.” The ponies gave him a blank look as he tried to explain it. “The gem here required that Luna, or Nightmare Moon if you prefer, had to stay near to the power source, but when she was sent to the moon the connection was cut.” “So it’s not my sisters fault that she was evil?” Celestia asked with an underlying tone of hopefulness. All the ponies were listening closely as they sat on the cold stone floor or on  pieces of rubble. Chaos sighed as he snapped his fingers, making seven chairs or so rise from the ground.         “No.” The ponies looked confused.         “Why not?” asked the yellow one, he looked at her odd.         “You are The Element of Kindness, correct?” Twilight looked suspicious and Rainbow looked like she really wanted to attack him.         “Umm… yes.” She was so quiet it was almost cute.         “Good then this is directly related to you.” The yellow one was scared, with the others confused. “This is the Element of Hatred.”
