CHAPTER 4:"Come to me, my darkness,
Don't be afraid,
For I am your new master,
And I will help you over though the horrid light
Come to me, my darkness!
The time to be feared is again upon us!
Temptations, death, fear, is all part of my pan!
Come all wonders of hatred, for I will help,
Come to me, my darkness,
Don't be afraid,
For you are all the ones that need to be feared!"
The little filly stopped chanting and grinned, "All things good is coming to an end... No amount of light can stop my power of darkness now!" Her long endless back main moved to the side as she turned her head, searching with her sickly blood red eyes for the next object of chaos to come to her. For their queen had arrived...
Twilight sighed as she flopped onto her new bed for the week. At the moment she would like to just sit there with a nice relaxing book. Though, the shower she had just taken would have to be enough. Rarity had volunteered them all for a formal dinner party that evening. Rainbow Dash was complaining, all the way to her until Rarity told her to shut up and get over it..., in a more ladylike fashion.
Twilight glanced around he ginit room. For some reason they were all having their own separate rooms. It confused Twilight, but at least she could always visit all the other girls in their own rooms. She guessed the good part was that it was nice a quite.
The room was huge in comparison to her room back at the library. The carpet was the softest thing that Twilight had ever touched in the life. The funachers was made out of all different types of wood or glass and there were all sorts of strange paintings that littered the walls. There were also many window, and at each was the same plaid curtains.
All of the colors seemed to go together perfectly and didn't clash at all. Also the was they had set up the furnishing seemed to do the exact same thing. The room was also seemed to be divided into a small bedroom, kitchen, entryway, and living room. It was like an apartment.
Twilight sighed and looked over to small clock that hung over the cozy bed. 4:12 pm it read. She had about two hours until she had to get going to the party. She wondered what she would be doing with her main and what she would dress into. Maybe she could curl her main like she had done for the Grand Galloping Gala and her brother's wedding or in a cute bun... Twilight rolled her eyes she had waited a little too long to curl it so she would have to stay with her bun. She guessed she could try and make it as cute as she did when she became a crystal pony for about an hour.
Twilight then got up and off of her bed and stretched her hind legs. Now what to wear was the other question on her mind that need to be answer for that night. Twilight guessed that she could go over to Rarity's room and ask her, but the only problem was that she had no idea where she was.
"The room number is 6123 she one floor above you."
Twilight jumped much higher that she meant to when she heard the nitrous voice of the one and only Discord. "AHHH! Discord!" He was in the middle of her living room. Literally in the middle. Suspended there in air without flapping his wings as he spined and turned around like a plant in aliment.
The spirit of chaos smiled, "Hello, Twilight Sparkle. We haven't seen each other in quite a while. I'm glad you remember what my name is."
"How could I forget?" Twilight hissed turning her head away. She didn't care how much Celestia or Fluttershy trusted the strange... animal, if you wanted to call it that, she wouldn't forgive him for what he did to Ponyville.
"The typical Twilight, not trusting me even though I haven't done anything too chaotic in more than a month."
"What are you doing here?"
Discord snapped his fingers and letter came out of nowhere with bat wings, teeth, and tiny feet. "Celestia wanted me to find you and give it to you. Make sure tell all of your other pony friends." The letter few around the room until settling down upside down on the chandelier.
"Why did she send you?"
Discord rolled his eyes, "Because, I would be the only one who would be able to find you in this mess of a hotel. Luna tried looking around trying to find you, but, of course, she couldn't. It would be uncanny if any was able to find you, so, naturally, here I am!" He laughed to himself and said something about how funny and stupid ponies were.
Twilight looked up at the letter, which now seemed to be asleep. "Turn the letter back I'm not trying to open that up."
Discord stopped spinning and sighed, "It look much better as a bat hybrid, but as you wish." He snapped his fingers again and the letter fell like a rock to the small table. Twilight was sure that the letter was going to break through the poor table, but instead it landed without as much as a thud.
"Thank you," Twilight managed to say. The letter was surrounded by a light purple aroa as Twilight easily elevated it to open it and read it.
"Well, anyways, I will see you tonight Miss Sparkle," Discord told Twilight. The top half of him was still suspended in air, but the other half had seemed to... well disappear. That or it was wandering around the hotel room.
Twilight almost dropped the letter, "Tonight? What do you mean tonight?!"
Discord rolled his disfigured eyes at her, "I am going to that dinner party as a guest of Celestia's."
"What? Why?"
"Why not? She is trying to show me around and trying to convince ponies that I'm 'not that bad'."
"I hope it isn't as bad as our last dinner party..." Twilight grumbled thinking back to that stupid gravy boat fish and how offended it was when anyone said 'fishy.'
Discord started to laugh, "That has to be the best dinner party I've ever been to!"
"It wasn't funny."
"Too you, but to me it was. Anyways don't forget that Rarity's room is 6123. Sixth floor, first corridor. Don't forget it." Discord poked Twilight on the nose before the top half of him bursted into was about to move out of the way of the confetti, however it incinerated before it even touched her.
Rolling her eyes Twilight opened the letter:
My Dearest Twilight,
Be careful. Something is going on that is not normal. Keep close to your friends.
After reading the shortest letter Princess Celestia had probably ever written in her entire life all Twilight could do was raise an eyebrow. It was rare to have the princess tell her something as simple as that. Twilight read the short letter again, held it to the light, and turned it around to see if anything was there that she might has missed. However, there was nothing. She then left it open on the table.
Twilight shook her head and looked up at the clock, which was hard to see from where she was standing, and gasped. 4:53. How was the possible?! It seemed like she had just talked to Discord for only about fifteen minutes! Twilight shot out of the door yelling, "6123! 6123! 6123!"
Thanks for Reading!
