Friend in the darkness

"Trapped…stuck in this dammed stone prison again

It's my own fault really…I should have hid the elements somewhere better

"….hmmm…I never relished how dark it was in here"

Discord slumps down

"All that chaos…gone…is harmony really stronger than chaos?"

"Maybe I should just give up this time…I mean I can't defeat this…harmony…so why bother trying…"

A single tear rolls down his face as he thinks of all the chaos he will miss out on

"…discord…why are you sad?"

He whips around, angry flaring his sadness forgotten. Who dares mock discord!

"…do you miss them…your family…your friends…being with her?"

Discord angrily flings fire and ice into the gloom

"SHOW YOURSELF…YOU DARE TO MOCK ME? I AM DISCORD GOD OF CHAOS!"

"I know who you are…I have watched you for some time now…I've seen you grow…begin to love…begin to hate…I know all about you"

Discord was taken aback. Impossible! No one can spy on me. No one could hide from my gaze.

"Who are you?"

A light chuckle filled the air. Usually he'd join in but this time…

What is this feeling again?...fear that's it…I haven't felt like this in a long time

"Discord…I am surprised you don't know me…after all…I am your only friend"

Discord scoffed at this

"You…a friend…oh that's rich…and let me ask you this…friend…what do you want? You've already mocked me and made my angry so what does my friendship gain you?"

Silence filled the dark void

Discord turn around. Searching for his 'friend'. He laughed at that. Why in the world would he, discord god of chaos, need anyone.

"Well that's simple…I want you out…so you do what you do best"

A bead of sweat ran down discords neck. No. that's not possible. No one can read my thoughts.

"you see…I have grown bored of this world…it's just so…organized…but you changed that…you make life interesting…I enjoy watching your pranks and the changes you make…I would have asked you to join me but as you can guess the ponies made you...stonily silent…he he he"

Even though discord still didn't trust this 'friend' of his, he had to admit he liked how they seemed to have his humor.

"Why should I trust you?"

A pair of golden eyes appeared in the darkness

" you can't that's the beauty of it…but for you to get out of here…you just have to believe I'm doing what's best…for both of us"

Discord pondered this for awhile. If I can just get a hold of your mind, I won't need your help

He stretched of with his thoughts, as he had do so many times, to try and change how the mind acted…to plant the seed of chaos.

His spell was simply swatted away like an annoying bug. He reeled back in horror as the tendrils of magic slowly curled around his brain.

"tsk tsk…really discord I thought better of you…did you really think I would be able to come here without some sort of magical defence…your arrogance will be your downfall…that's why she left you…because you believed she didn't love you…but you made her like that…you and only you…and now look I have control of you…a twist here and a cut there…no more chaos for discord"

Discord grabbed his head. No. please no. how is this happening? It can't be happening. This can't happen to discord.

"Sigh…you will never learn will you…but that's what I like about you…that's what she loves about you"

The pain stopped. She still loves me. No. no she hates me. This is just some trick

A vision appeared before him

Princess Celestia…crying…crying for…me. Discords heart sank. She still cares about me?

The vision evaporated

"we are going to get her back…make her see…you and her will create the perfect world together…harmony and chaos together…can't you see I want to help you…but first you have to help yourself"

Discord gazed curiously at the eyes

"why…why do you want this…who are you?"

The eye faded and the chuckling returned

"I told you…I'm a friend…and I do this because I want change…I want something different…I want…chaos"

The chuckling faded away and the feeling of loneliness returned to discord

"See you soon…friend"

The garden was shrouded in moonlight. Only one stirred. A robed pony with glowing golden eyes and red hair watched the silent statue of discord. A smile grew on his face.

"See you very soon"

And with that final word he was gone. Blow away in the wind. All was quiet in the garden. Nobody noticed the crakes forming along the statue or the laughter coming from inside. Chaos will rise this night…and no elements of harmony will stop me this time
