Chapter 1
It has been 100 years after Discord had broken out of his stone prison; and defeated the Elements of Harmony. Celestia, Luna and Discord fought; Celestia defeated, Luna fled to the moon, leaving all the ponies of Equestria in slavery. Celestia held captive, never to raise and lower the sun. Her magic was held back by a machine, if she ever tried to use magic, her strength and magic would lower. Discord used Twilight Sparkle as an apprentice. Pinkie Pie, she now and then would be discorded and sometimes, undiscorded for Lord Discord; enjoyed Pinkie Pie’s laughter. Fluttershy, she kept the pony slaves in line; Rarity, one of the helpers for Fluttershy; Rainbow Dash, the bad weather pony and AppleJack, both cook and the message giver. Equestria needs somepony’s help….
“Now Twilight Sparkle, it’s been a day since you last fought, could you be a dear and go to Ponyville and see how Fluttershy and Rarity is doing” Discord stared out the painted glass window of his Canterlot castle, he sighed watching as Rainbow Dash brought in the cotton candy clouds, ready to rain chocolate milk. “And Twilight, show everypony who’s boss” his red eyes gazed over at the light purple unicorn.
“Yes, Discord” Twilight’s hoof shot up to her forehead. She dashed over to the door, using her unicorn magic; she opened to door and shut it when she left.
“It’s just too easy” Discord knew one day Luna would come back, trying to take back Equestria and save her sister. “Celestia”
The fact the Discord could float, he barely needed his legs; he flouted over to a big set of doors were, were the Elements of Harmony were once locked up, when and before he broken out of his stone prison for the first time.
“Good afternoon” he paused for a moment, his normal face expression turned into a smirk “Princess Celestia.” The white Alicorn hung there like a lifeless Pegasus or unicorn he had once captured; The Alicorn body came to life.
“Discord” she said, she tried to struggle to loosen up the shackles around each of her hooves, holding her in place, even if she tried a few more times, she’d never escape. “My sister, Luna will come to save us all, from the likes of you”
“You’ve said that some many times, Celestia; it’s getting old” he slowly floated over close to the princess, his tail, whipped around. Acting like discipline, Celestia slowly tried to move out of the way, again Discord whipped his tail at her again, she quietly grunted.
“If Luna won’t come, I’ll summon the Elements of Harmony” her horn made a quick flash then slowly the flash grew brighter and covered her body, slowly her magic and strength drained.
“Oh I doubt that” Discord hovered out of the room, shutting the doors behind him; the princess’s body slowly became lifeless again. He locked the door with a magical spell that couldn’t be broken by anyone except Discord and Twilight Sparkle.
Twilight Sparkle slowly halted, three of the toughest guards, powered by Discord stood in front of her.
“Halt!” the three guards, stared at her, showing that she wasn’t allowed to be in the slave yard. “Who are you and state your business “
“Twilight Sparkle, apprentice of Discord, God of Chaos; I am here to check up on Fluttershy and Rarity and maybe help out with the slaves” she glared at the guards, she quietly snorted, warning them that she could report their behavior to Discord.
“Yes, yes Twilight Sparkle, come right in” one of the guards, bucked the door open, which leads to the slave yard, where all the other ponies are, until they die.
Twilight, trying her best to keep quiet, trotted behind the herd of slave ponies. Not noticing where she was going, she tumbled on top of a yellow Pegasus, who had a light pink mane.
“Watch where you’re going!” the yellow Pegasus glared angrily at Twilight. “Get this pony digging at the ground, getting the finest jewels for Lord Discord!” the yellow Pegasus growled and stared over at a white unicorn, who was busy whipping the slave ponies with her whip, she didn’t listen. “NOW!”
The white unicorn finally noticed, the yellow Pegasus stared at her. “It would be nice, it you called me ‘Rarity’ or maybe even ‘Miss Rarity’, but no. You’re too busy screaming ‘now’ at me” Rarity, gracefully shook her mane around, her eyes fluttered at Twilight.
“Fluttershy, I came to check up on your job with Rarity” Twilight, glanced over at the other herd of ponies, where a group of fillies and a pink Alicorn mare and a white unicorn stallion sat. The Alicorn looked as if she was crying.
Rarity’s gracefulness disappeared, her voice turned to a screechy noise, horrible tone “MINE!!!” Rarity’s head turned as her magic pulled a big light blue diamond out of the ground where a unicorn was digging. She coward over at the end of the fence, rubbing her hoof on it, she cradled it as if it were a newborn baby foal. Everypony watched as Rarity comforted the light blue diamond, their creeped out faces went back to staring at the rocks and dirty jewels they found.
“Now, Twilight Sparkle what do you need?...” Fluttershy’s wings slowly flapped, lifting the pony up in the air, she slowly flew behind Twilight.
“Well, I wanted to see how you and-“Twilight’s eyes slowly shut as she tried to speak.
“Hey Twilight, What’s soaking wet and clueless?” Fluttershy said shyly, her hooves were behind her back. Twilight shrugged, her eyes were still closed, she slowly then opened them; Fluttershy wasn’t in front of her.
“Your face!” Fluttershy’s hooves shot out from behind her back, dumping a bucket of water on top of Twilight’s head, and then dropping the bucket Twilight’s head; Fluttershy quietly laughed rudely behind Twilight’s back.
Twilight grunted, she shook herself as if she were a dog, then as Fluttershy was still too busy laughing, she trotted out of the slave yard; she used her magic to lift the guards up, she walked under them. She harshly dropped them. She trotted back to the castle, she watched as Rainbow Dash slacked on bring in the cotton candy clouds. She slowly stopped, she used her magic to make her float; she levitated upwards to the little cotton candy cloud, which Rainbow Dash was busy sleeping on.
“Rainbow Dash” she paused hopping that Rainbow Dash would reply. “RAINBOW DASH, GET YOUR FAT ASS UP AND KEEP WORKING ON GETTING THE COTTON CANDY CLOUD OVER HERE!!!!” Twilight Sparkle slapped Rainbow Dash across the face, Rainbow Dash rolled off the cloud, awake the second she got slapped. Rainbow’s wings shot open, they flapped about a hundred times before shooting into the sky like a bullet, “Rainbow Dash?” Twilight Sparkle watched as the grayish light blue Pegasus pony flew away, gathering as much cotton candy clouds. She lowered herself to the ground, gently her magic dropped her, she walked and walked, Sweet Apple Acres was the nearest place by since Ponyville was the slave yard. AppleJack was leaned up against the barn, a barrel of apple cores laid next to her.
“Hey AppleJack!” Twilight trotted over to the barn; AppleJack took an apple core out of the barrel, she reversed bite out of the apple.
“Howdy Twi” AppleJack threw the apple over to the apple field, she watched it roll down the hill.
“Well, AppleJack Have you seen Pinkie Pie today?” Twilight glanced over to the corn field, Big Macintosh was digging around like a dog, he also made barking sounds.
“Nope” AppleJack looked around innocently, she looked as if she did something wrong. “Here Winona” AppleJack whistled for her dog, Winona didn’t bark nor make dog sounds, she came running.
“Good afternoon Winona” Twilight glanced over at the border collie.
“Eeyup” Winona said, she walked over to AppleJack, wanting to be patted; AppleJack slowly rubbed Winona’s forehead.
“Good girl, Winona” AppleJack cooed.
“Did that dog just speak?!” Twilight Stared at AppleJack, clueless.
“Nope” AppleJack’s eyes went all derpy.
Twilight shook her head then trotted over to the fence where the gate to Sweet Apple Acres was. She waved over at AppleJack, who was still too busy petting her dog. Twilight galloped back to the castle to tell Discord about what was going on with the ponies in the slave yard and Sweet Apple Acres.
***
Twilight panted as she got closer to the door into the castle, she slammed herself into the door, trying to catch her breath. Slowly, she got up and opened the door with one of her hooves, to see Discord and his daughter, tormenting a replica of Ponyville, with all of its ponies.
“Umm….Lord Discord, Princess Screwball” Twilight stared as the two placed with the small pony figures. Discord laughed as he smashed half of the ponies into each house.
“Discord?” Twilight sighed “Discord?”
“Daddy” Screwball, glanced at her father, trying to tell him that Twilight was back.
“Not now, Screwball” he slowly popped off the toy pony figurine’s head that looked like Berry Punch.
“Daddy, Twilight is back” she pointed at Twilight, she tried to get her father’s attention.
“Oh, Twilight your back so soon” the toy figure of Berry Punch burst into flames. He glanced over at Twilight Sparkle, he snapped his fingers; Screwball disappeared.
“I have come to tell you about the things I found in the slave yard and Sweet Apple Acres” Twilight gasped, she quietly sighed. She knew that Discord could make her disappear, forever.
“Shouldn’t AppleJack tell me these things” Discord sighed, he then grunted in annoyance.
AppleJack busted through the door, panting she spoke “Discord I am here to tell you about what happened in Ponyville and-“Discord snapped his fingers, AppleJack bursted into flames, blood everywhere, Twilight gasped.
“Now Twilight, you can’t let friends get in the way” he rubbed the blood off of Twilight’s face “think of it like a scar or a wound”
Twilight stared in shock, her mouth wide open.
“Now, Twilight; Go check up on Celestia” Discord floated over to the glass stained window, he watched as Rainbow Dash covered the last bit of sky with cotton candy clouds.
Twilight Sparkle gently opened the big doors, the room was dark; She flipped on a switch, pulling the once princess, Celestia. Celestia’s eyes adjusted to the bright light; she glanced over at Twilight, her eyes looked as if she were blind.
“Discord!” Celestia growled, her eyes whites were red, her pupils were a misty white, she was blind.
“Celestia” Twilight mimicked, she tried her best to mimic Discord’s words. He told her that Celestia could take her life away, even maybe destroy Equestria, once and for all.
“Luna will come and save Equestria, I believe in her and the Elements of Harmony” Celestia‘s eyes teared up.
“The Elements of Harmony are not alive anymore, Celestia” Twilight Sparkle’s voice was normal again.
“Twilight Sparkle!” Celestia sobbed, she wanted to hug her, her magic was lowering slowly, even if she wasn’t using it.
Twilight’s eyes teared up, she wanted to cry; she sighed and walked out, flicking the switch with her tail. The white Alicorn was lifeless once more. Twilight Sparkle shut the door, forgetting to lock it, she was lost in her sorrow.
“How’s Celestia?” Discord glanced over at Twilight Sparkle, he smirked. “Don’t let Celestia get the best of you”
“I won’t” Twilight sighed, she rubbed her eyes with her hoof.
Discord snapped his fingers; Fluttershy, Rarity, Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash appeared in front of him.
“Rainbow Dash” Discord stared at Rainbow “Your new job is to help Pinkie Pie with the baking”
Pinkie Pie smirked “Dashie, we’ll make cupcakes and rainbows!” Rainbow Dash, grunted.
Discord’s paw tapped Rainbow Dash’s head, turning her greyer, Rainbow Dash smirked.
“Pinkie Pie, first you will entertain me, you will stay with me, when finished; you may go with Dash.”
“Okay” Pinkie Pie smiled and bounced over to Discord’s side, and sat down, her tail wagging.
“Fluttershy, Rarity; continue your jobs, you’re doing great at them”
“Where’s AppleJack?” Pinkie Pie frowned.
“AppleJack is away at a little job” Discord grinned, blood slowly poured through his teeth.
Twilight shuddered; she slowly backed up to a corner, she watched as Discord sent them away.
“Twilight, we have a job, we need to do; Pinkie stay here” Discord fingers snapped his fingers, Pinkie Pie disappeared like Screwball.
Discord lifted his legs off the ground, he floated to the door; Twilight Sparkle trotted behind him.
***
Discord and Twilight Sparkle watched as the slave ponies worked, Rarity brought Discord all the finest jewels and Diamonds. Fluttershy shouted at the ponies, Rarity whipped them. Twilight had her eyes set on a pink Alicorn and a white unicorn laid.
“Excuse me Discord” Twilight got up; she slowly trotted over to the couple. She tried her best to not frighten them. They looked terrible up close.
“Umm.. Hello?” she quietly glanced at the Alicorn.
“Twilight?” the Alicorn looked up at her. She felt that she was being watch by a zombie pony.
The unicorn stallion finally spoke “Twilight, Sparkle?”
“Shining Armor?” Twilight stared at the unicorn stallion “Cadence?”
The Alicorn slowly got up, her leg was injured, the bone was sticking out of her skin. She crouched down, Twilight crouched too. Cadence lifted her injured leg, they both sang.
“Sunshine, sunshine lady bugs awake, clap your hooves” Twilight and Cadence clapped their hooves together, Cadence balanced on her not injured leg “and do a little shake”
Twilight Sparkle and Cadence shook their behinds. Twilight glanced over at Shining Armor, he looked healthier then Cadence; He stook by her side the whole time.
“Why are you two still together, she would just die on you” Twilight glance over to the pile of dying ponies, which were on the other side of the yard.
“We stay together, and we die together” Shining Armor pulled Cadence over to him, he hugged her tightly.
Twilight trotted back over to Discord, she was a bit annoyed and a bit satisfied.
***
Discord clapped his claws together, he smirked at Twilight.
“I see you were flirting with the slave ponies” Discord reminded Twilight Sparkle about talking to the slaves, Discord waved his paw around. “You know, Twilight Sparkle; I can make you disappear and I can make you do things you’d never do”
Twilight gasped, she didn’t want to die just yet; maybe even….Ever.
“The only way I’ll forgive you, get rid of the other elements of harmony” Discord floated over to a glass stained window, his eagle claw turned red, he gently poked the window; all the elements of harmony except Twilight Sparkle, the element of magic, melted. “Now go get rid of the other elements..”
