In the magical land of Equestria, and in the glorious Sun Kingdom a young mare sat on a soft pillow telling her three daughters a story. Her name was Enchanting Quill. She had the palest yellow coat with bright green eyes, her mane was curled up in small locks and her cutie mark was a quill writing in an open book. She was well known for her story telling, and she was just finishing a lovely story about a mare with beautiful golden hair trapped in a tower waiting for her Prince to rescue her. Her daughters, Misty, Passion, and Thriller listened in awe.

"And when the tear fell from her eye, it healed the young colt. And the two of them returned to the kingdom where they were married and lived together in happiness and love. The End.."

"Wow..." The fillies cooed in unison.

"That story was so romantic!" Passion sighed.

"It certainly had a bit of mystery and wonder about it." Misty added.

"Yeah, and the way the stallion had to escape the guards and had to climb up the tower was so full of action and suspense!" Thriller said as she laughed.

The three fillies were all Earth Ponies and they all had their cutie marks, Passion had a bright pink coat with gentle purple eyes, she was a very sweet and gentle filly. Misty had a dusty blue coat that looked a bit like actual mist, she had bright teal eyes with a pale lavender mane. The last one, Thriller, had a light brown goat and emerald eyes. She could sometimes be a bit of a troublemaker, but she was so playful and honest. For their cutie marks, Passion's was a hear made out of cotton candy surrounded by roses. Misty's was a magnifying glass surrounded by magic and mist raindrops. And Thrillers cutie mark was a tornado with game pieces swirling around inside. Enchanting Quill was so proud to have such three sweet, adorable fillies for her daughters. They meant so much to her and she loved to tell them all her stories.

"Tell us another one Mother!" Misty pleaded. "One with mystery..."

"And a beautiful Princess.." Passion responded.

"And a horrifying monster too! Rawr!!" Thriller called out like a lion.

Her sisters and mother laughed. "Alright." Enchanted Quill said. "How about the Legend of the Chaos King?"

"Ohhh..." The triplets responded. "Yes! Yes! Tell us Mother, please!"

"Well, the story takes place when our beloved Queen Twilight Sparkle was only a Princess, and her mother and aunt Queen Luna and Celestia held the responsibility of raising the Sun and Moon and maintaining Harmony in the land. The young Princess was engaged to a hansdome young stallion named Prince Sombra who ruled over the Crystal Kingdom. But deep in the Everfree Forest where terrifying wild beasts like the Cockatrice, Hydra, Timberwolf, and Dragons roam the evil Chaos King was watching. With teeth like knives and sharp, pointy claws and eyes that glowed in the dark he grew very jealous of the Princess's love and yearned for somepony he could call his own. He lived a powerful, demon he had brainwashed and corrupted. The demon looked like a pony a mare in fact, but had the power of insanity and evil in it's veins."

"What happened next?" Thriller asked in a worried tone.

"Together they captured the Princess and killed one of the Queens. It was Queen Celestia. Everypony was heartbroken, and the first effects of the Chaos Kings power began to take hold one Equestria. But luckily Queen Luna joined with Prince Sombra and the two went to confront the hideous King. They both fought the King and his demon, and they would have won too had it not been for having the demons power being put inside the Chaos King making him twice as powerful and twice as hideous."

The three fillies began to shiver and cuddled.

"This doesn't sound like a nice story." Passion remarked.

"Don't worry dear it gets better," Enchanting Quill continued. "The Chaos King began taking over the land and destruction and chaos spread across the land. He had won... Or so we thought... As strangely as the chaos ensued it quickly left and the Princess returned. Nopony knows why or what happened to the Chaos King and his demon. But life in Equestria remained peaceful ever since..."

Misty sighed. "Mother you are an amazing storyteller!"

"Thank you Misty," Enchanting Quill replied.

"Mother about the story, is it really true?" Thriller asked.

"Yeah, does the Chaos King really exist? And is Queen Twilight Sparkle really the daughter of Queen Celestia?" Passion added.

"It may be true, there is an old rhyme that tells about the Chaos King. Would you like to hear it?"

The fillies nodded excitedly.

Enchanting Quill cleared her throat and began,

"The legend of the Chaos Kings reign,

is said to bring chaos, evil, and pain.

With an evil demon by his side,

they soon changed the orderly tide.

Equestria was soon plunged into the dark,

and without our beloved Princess the monsters left their demonic mark.

But with our hope, love, and life,

we might be able to push back his tormenting strife..

Enchanting Quill looked out the window to see the Sun Kingdoms castle standing tall and fair. For in that castle the beloved Queen Twilight Sparkle and King Sombra and their young daughter Star Shadow were hard at work running the whole kingdom...

"You see my darlings... There cannot be a story without a beginning..."

"Mother," Thriller called. "If the Chaos King is real, and he tried to take us away, would you rescue us?"

Enchanting Quill smiled. "Oh, don't you worry about that. I'd find you and tell the Chaos King to let you all go. Because I'm the mother and I can put him in a time out!"

The three fillies and their mother all shared a large hug as they looked up at the castle While Passion looked into the Everfree Forest, was the Chaos King real? Was he out there, waiting so seek his revenge? But her mother also said that he was lonley and wanted somepony he could call his own; did he feel alone and forgotten. The question stirred through her head, but for now she held onto her mother tightly and smiled. Next Chapter: A Princess and Draconequus Estimated time remaining: 1 Hour, 2 Minutes
