How did you break the enchantment?!” >You shrug You of all people should know, Celestia. >The light behind her grows >You guess that means she’s getting ready for something bad >The light bursts forward, but you’ve already started moving >You hear a large bang, and are thrown forward again >You roll as you land, getting back on your feet quickly >You look back quickly to see a black mark where you were laying not moments ago Not taking any chances getting hit by that, Celestia! >You knew you were at least somewhat resistant to magic >You were immune to Celestia’s mind probing >Of course, that just meant she had to make sure you were safe another way >Horns hurt >So do stomping hooves >The part that caught your and Celestia’s eye was when Luna got involved >She wanted to test out a new device >Some kind of automated torture thing >Enchanted to run until it detected the life force of whatever it was… attached to… got too low >Then it would heal it up and repeat until turned off >Luckily, it didn’t work on you >The moment it got attached, all of its magic emptied out, and it hung uselessly from your chest >So enchantments didn’t work on you >But whatever Celestia just threw at you didn’t look so much enchantment and a lot more explosive fire >And so you ran >”Anon! I demand you stop running this instant!” Why, so you can kill me? Not likely! >”I just want to talk!” >Another explosion >Talk, right. >Suddenly you have an idea >An idea so crazy, it might just work >Or you’ll die horribly. >Whatever >You turn quickly, sprinting through the middle of the clearing towards Celestia >She looks amused as you charge her, and the light grows again >You pump your legs faster >Just before it looks like she’ll fire another… whatever she’s been firing, you jump, hitting Celestia with your full body weight in a tackle >She doesn’t budge Fuck >However, you notice the light die down >”Anon.” Yes, Celestia? >”I am going to kill you. Slowly.” K >Celestia shakes her head, throwing you off her and onto the ground >You look up, seeing nothing but Celestia and the sky above >She’s like the center of the universe >Nothing but he- >Wait >She was still beside the statue >There’s no statue >You smile, and you notice Celestia’s face drop as she sees where you’re looking >She turns around, only to be hit in the face by a cow   >What >”Ha! No one ever sees the cow coming! Classic” >You look around, but only see a knocked out Celestia and Pinkie hiding in a far corner of the clearing >The cow is nowhere to be seen >”Confused, Anon? That won’t do, no that won’t do at all.”      >Out of thin air, the statue appears in front of you >Except it’s not a statue anymore >Discord stands at his full height, smirking >You’re not entirely sure what to say …Bguh? >Classy >He raises an eyebrow >”Not so eloquent, are we? Oh well, I wouldn’t expect much from the creature stupid enough to free me.” >Stupid? I don’t think freeing you makes me stupid. I think it makes me willing to take risks >”Really Anon, Do you have any idea who you just freed? What did you think I was, some kind of prankster?” >Lightning flashes behind him >Except this lightning is green >You gulp Well... yeah. A really good one though… >”Oh yes, I’m a wonderful prankster. Of course, that’ll come after I enslave all of Equestria.” >Oh >Ok, so he won’t be just making things fun >Plan B Well, seeing how I freed you… >”…Yes?” …Can I help? >There’s a pause >Then he starts laughing >You get back to your feet, confused >Discord is now rolling on the ground, big fits of laughter rolling through his body So… that’s a yes? >Discord manages to return to some level of control, and smiles coldly at you as he returns to his full height >”No. You’d only hold me back from my fun! Now if you don’t mind, I have some havoc and chaos to attend to.” >And with that, he’s gone >You hear a loud rip >You look up to see the sky tearing >And from the new hole, fire begins to fall >Those are rocks >Fucking fiery rocks >Discord’s laughter fills the air >The earth begins to rumble, cracks quickly spreading through the clearing >Pegasus flood down from the sky, their bones jutting out from under their coat >You see a few with eyes, but most simply have empty sockets >You can’t see outside the clearing, but you assume this is happening all around Equestria >This isn’t what Pinkie said happened last time >You remember her saying it rained chocolate milk from cotton candy clouds >Things were weird, but it was like the mind of a child >Practically harmless >This is anything but >You try to move, try to find help, but your legs don’t budge >You look down >Your feet are sinking into the ground >Ohshit.jpg >You struggle, but you continue to sink >The ground pulls you down, and within moments you are down to your waist >Your hands can reach the ground now, and you attempt to push yourself back out >Your hands get pulled in FUCK >You look around, trying to find help >You see Pinkie leaning over Celestia, trying to wake her up Pinkie! >She doesn’t turn around, and continues to prod Celestia >The ground has reached your shoulders now >You don’t have much time Pinkie, help me! >Pinkie turns around now >She looks at you sadly as you sink >You try to smile, but before you can, the ground covers your mouth >You look at Pinkie pleadingly, but she turns away from you back to Celestia >Your eyes widen, and the last thing you see before you are swallowed is Pinkie’s back as she abandons you to your fate >There’s only darkness >Hard rock all around you >Why isn’t it soil? >Fucking Spirit of Chaos >Wait >You can breath >You aren’t being crushed >You aren’t going to die! >You… aren’t going to die >No, because to suffocate is too slow… >Discord has left you in a prison of his own devising >Is this what it was like to be a statue? >Being unable to move? >Being unable to see? >But being aware of yourself >And you thought living in a town with talking ponies was hell? >You can feel yourself starting to lose it >You remember hearing that if you bite off your tongue, you can choke on your own blood >That’ll work >It can’t hurt that bad >You take a deep breath, preparing >You bite >Fucking tongue isn’t there >You’re too much of a pussy to do it >Maybe someone will save you >Who? >No one even knows where you are >Except Discord, and you’re fairly sure he isn’t coming back >You squeeze your eyes shut to hold back tears, and prepare yourself again >You open your mouth >And hear a massive crack >Light filters in from above, and you’re torn from the ground, your skin scratching against it the whole way up >You scream as a piece of rock jabs into your left eye >But you’re out >And in the air >And now you’re not >You hit the ground hard, and the breath is knocked out of you >You lay on your back, trying to open your left eye, but it remains shut >You can feel the blood rolling down your face >And your body >That’s a lot of scratches >You look up as a bright light shines against the dark sky >You think you know who saved you >You use the word “saved” loosely >”Didn’t I say I was going to kill you, Anon?”   End Chapter 3
