Hey..." >You seem to have a tendency to scare other ponies in the immediate area. >WB -"Wh-W-Wha-Wh-" >Shame it sometimes causes underlings to babble like they've forgotten they're adults and not children >You cover her mouth "Words dear. Try words." >You uncover her mouth >WB -"What are you doing here?" "Oh, you know, having a stroll about town, enjoying the sights, questioning myself on why I hired 3 incorrigible fools who can't kill ponies when they're asked. Might you know something about that?" >F -"Well you see.." "What, a seamstress, a farmer, and a showhorse are too much for you?" >WB -"Hey! You never told us they were Stand Users!" >... >What? >T -"Yeah. You told us they'd be harmless when separated. Yet all three of them have Stands." >Well... >Isn't this quite the development "Who?" >WB -"What do you mean who?" "THE ELEM-" >Cool it. >Deep breaths >Your partner in crime may be effectively camoflauging you, but that won't matter if you shout like an enraged ape "*ahem* The Elements. Which of the Elements of Harmony has a Stand?" >WB -"Well, uh... I know that Trixie broad has one." >T -"As well as Rarity." >F -"And the unbearable pink one." >My my... >Two out of six already... >So many Stand Users in Ponyville alone... >A faint memory of when you first learned of Stands comes to mind >"Remember my Lord, Stand Users attract other Stands Users. Be wary of those you meet." >... >Change of plans! "You know what? I'm feeling generous. Rather than punish you for failing your objective, I'm instead going to give you the opportunity to earn even MORE than I've already promised. In fact..." >You grab the bags of gold you promised them for their jobs, and throw them towards their respective recipients "An advancement, for your next objective." >F -"Wait. Next objective?" "Indeed. Your next objective... is to stay in Ponyville. A simple job, no?" >A confused look crosses their faces >A sigh escapes your lips "Do you know ANYTHING about Stands?" >All three look at each other before shaking their heads "*sigh* Never mind. All you have to do is stay in Ponyville until I say you can leave. It's that simple." >A few seconds pass as your underlings think over the decision, as if it needed heavy thought >One of them, Fugue, speaks up >F -"Sure." >? -"Who's to stop them from telling the Elements?" >A good point "What solution might you suggest?" >Your partner summons up a giant cloud of insects >Oh how fitting a Stand for her >A small clump of them zip onto each of them   >What in Tartarus? >What is with these bugs? >You feel one sting you >Ow! >That hurt like hell! >You wonder if the Queen will ever look at you as anything more than a drone >What? >No you do- >HMmmmmHHAAAFUUUCK, SHE'S TIGHT! >What in Tar- >Shit! I've been found out! >What in- >A flood of thoughts rush in, invading your head and making it ache >It's like- >Someone made a sandwich by shitting on some bread! What kinda restaurant is this?! >No, I can't focus- >-On your silly problems right now, I have some of my own you know! >Stop- >-Being such a bully, Suri! >Shut up! >SHUT UP! >SHUTUPSHUTUPSHUTU-   >At this point, Fugue is on the ground, covering his ears and whimpering >You had to admit, you're glad that if anyone is on your side, it's Chrysalis >Her Stand may not be physically powerful, but it doesn't need to be to be deadly >C -"My Stand?INSTITUTIONALIZED?will take care of that for you." >F -"What did-... What did you do to me?" >C -"You see, I have a psychic connection to all of my drones, whether they're loyal to me..." >A look of scorn appears with her next words >C -"...Or not." >She clears her throat >C -"Simply put, with my Stand, I can force the thoughts of ALL my drones into the heads of whomever I wish." >Fugue stands back up, the effect of Chrysalis' Stand having stopped "Now then, as I said, you will all be staying here in Ponyville until I give the all clear for you to leave. Are we clear?" >T -"No." "No? How hard is it to understand a simple order?" >T -"Well, I'd rather know the reasoning behind why we're stuck here." >WB -"He's got a point. How hard could it be to explain that huh?" "It's not. I simply don't feel like explaining it to you. Now then, back to your-" >T -"In fact, how do you think you can keep us from running and telling the guard over there right now what you're doing?" >C -"Because I've put up an invisibility and soundproofing spell around us. That, and I have eyes and ears everywhere, and I'll be bringing them here to keep you in check." >T -"Oh, so what? One of your drones happens to tell you and you fog my mind up? What's so scary about that?" >F -"*Whispering* Toccata, I know you're upset, but you really don't want to backchat the-" >T -"No Fugue! I'll be the first to admit that I bucked up in getting involved with this guy in the first place, but I'm not letting him do this to us! To YOU!" >Chrysalis activates her Stand again, making the insolent blue pegasus tumble forward in pain >That ought to put a stop to his ramblings >T -"Y-You're... weak." >He's still going? >T -"You... you need everyone else... to do your dirty work... because... in truth... you're too weak to be able to do it yourself." "And?" >"In the end... you're just... just a little bitch." >Your Stand's arm reflexively snaps forward, its hand wrapping around Toccata's throat "Alright. You want motivation to keep working for me? Do as I say, or I will SNAP.YOU.IN.HALF. How's that?" >The pony's choking and sobbing is as close to a yes as you'll get >If the expressions on the other two faces is anything to go by, the message was received >You throw his body onto the ground, where his brother wraps him in a hug "Now that that's done, I expect you two will be a bit more... obedient?" >With a somber look, both nod their heads "Splendid! Chrysalis, shall we?" >C -"Of course." >She opens a portal back to your base of operations with a ZAP >You step through, glad to be able to relax a bit >While that little upstart may have been brash, he was right about one thing >You were weak for now, and you'd need time to be able to get back to full strength >And when that happens... no one will stop you from getting your revenge >Not those damned Elements >Not those petty excuses for princesses >No one >And this little village- nay, this COUNTRY will burn under your scorn >And if you played your cards right, Anon would see it your way >Sure, he seems content now >But wait 'till he finds out how Equestria stays so prosperous   http://pastebin.com/zMwbbvUP <=====TO=BE=CONTINUED=====   Thanks for reading!
