Discord returns before his reformation, seeking revenge.

Celestia is planning to have Discord reformed by the mane six, but before she even tells the girls, Discord returns seeking revenge by re-hiding the elements, as well as transforming Celestia, and the mane six. But unknown to him, a failsafe was prepared in this event by Celestia and Luna. Will they be able to stop him in time? I know, bad description. But I'm (hopefully) better at this fanfic.

First one. If it sucks deal with it.
Alternate universe tag for The Doctor. (Imagine bon-bon)

Note: This was written as an alternative to if something went wrong before he got reformed.

Prologue

"Are you sure about this, Celestia?" asked Luna. She felt that Discord couldn't be trusted, and doubted he would listen to the elements, let alone herself or her sister, Celestia.

"Not really, but if anyone can reform him, it's them." replies Princess Celestia, with total confidence.

"But what if Twilight and her friends CAN'T reform Discord, and he tries to hide the elements once more? What if your spell to protect them doesn't work? What if-" Luna's questions were disrupting Celestia's concentration.
"Luna, I doubt anything will go wrong, OK? Now, let me be so I may concentrate on the spell!" Luna, being shocked at Celestia's sudden outburst, teleported away to her room. Celestia started up the spell again. It wasn't simple, no beginners spell, but she should be quite capable to perform it. But, she couldn't get it out of her head that something wrong in the royal sculpture garden. She knew she wouldn't be able to concentrate with such a nagging feeling,so until the garden was checked, she would have to wait for their report for the all go.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Luna Luna paced across her bedroom. She should be sleeping, or at least getting ready for bed, but she was busy thinking. What if Discord wouldn't reform? What if... What if her older sister was wrong? It wasn't likely, but what if? That's all that went through her mind as she paced, 'What If's' coursing through her brain. Her sister never let her be in charge, or even have authority except to stand and listen. Whatever she was planning, she usually didn't let Luna know right away. So, to put it bluntly, Luna had no authority over what happened, as she was younger. In a fit of rage, she screamed, "WHY AM I THE YOUNGER!!! WHY CAN"T I BE IN CHARGE!!??" Pretty much all of Canterlot heard her, and even Celestia grimaced, but she was to angry to care. She was about to blast a hole at her sister. but thought against it and calmed down. She walked over to her desk and pulled out a piece of parchment. It contained the backup ponies, the "replacements" to the elements, should something happen to Twilight and the others. She and Celestia prepared it a few months back. This could be a state of emergency...no, her sister wouldn't do this without her knowing, and wouldn't appreciate it if Luna did it at all. So, setting it down, she fell asleep, the parchment beside her.

----Discord was bored. Being a statue wasn't that fun. And he couldn't do any chaos! Well, he could, but it wasn't much. Mostly just making ponies trip and forgot what it was that they were doing. But, before he was turned to stone, he planned ahead when he saw the color change. So, what he DID do this time was cast a fail safe spell on himself. If he was turned into stone, all he needed was a small amount of chaos, like an argument to be freed. But, this time he was put in a secluded spot of the garden. Only Celestia was allowed to enter, or anyone with permission. But, being pure chaos and all, he figured out the schedules of Celestia, and every guard around Canterlot. So he chose today to emit his chaos all over the garden. Especially near him. Discord was patient though. He knew Celestia was busy, and the only guards available had a tendency to argue. A lot. So he knew he knew he would be free soon. Mainly, because he heard them coming a mile away.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"Did you see how Princess Celestia raised the sun this morning? She totally did with extra pizazz today." said Solaris Flare.
"Pshaww! Did you see how princess Luna guards the night? She does it awesomely just for me" said Moonlit Shadow.
"In your dreams. She's just failing at giving you nightmares. Besides, she wouldn't give you the time of day anyways." said Solaris Flare.
"Well, duh! She sleeps during the day!" said Moonlit Shadow with a satisfied smirk. "But- I mean- Da- THAT'S BESIDES THE POINT! The point is, she'd never fall for you!" Yelled Solaris Flare
"OH NO YOU DI-INT!" "OH YES I DI-ID"
Discord, who had escaped a minute ago, interrupting their catfight.

"Ladies, ladies your all beautiful. Oh WAIT! Your not mares. But you will be." And then, with a mischivious grin,and a finger snap, he disappeared, leaving two dumbfounded mares in his wake. "GREAT!" Cried Solaris Flare cried. Suddenly, he had a questioning look on his face. "Hey, Moonlit," he commented, "did you see how Twilight Sparkle was staring at Flash Sentry this morning?" Said Solaris. "Mmmmhmmm. She's totes into him. We should tell everyone." said Moonlit. "Totes agreed" And, with that said, they walked off.

Celestia began to wonder. The guards she sent out weren't back yet. She was about to call for another guard to check up on them, make sure everything was alright. Then she remembered how they both constantly argued over who was best princess. She thought it was obvious, but some people can't see the obvious. She decided everything was fine and under control, and prepared up her protection spell. But as soon as she was ready to cast the spell, she heard a voice. It was a voice she remembered all to well. Discord. "DISCORD, HOW DID YOU ESCA-" Then, there was a flash of light. It was so bright, it woke Luna from her slumber. Luna then, in a rush, immediately teleported to the Grand Throne Room. What she found there was shocking.

My fanfiction, my choices.

I wrote this the day I came to this site, saving it for emergencies. I guess this counts, huh? And I'm not looking for attention, promise. I've edited this slightly, considering I was much younger when I wrote this at first.
Love you all, my beautiful proxies.

PS, LUNA IS BEST PRINCESS!!!

DISCORD!!!

Luna was shocked. In front of her was not Discord but her older sister, Princess Celestia. Except for one small detail. She was a foal. Next to her was a note saying;

You wanted authority? There you have it. By the way, should I start with

chocolate milk rain? Or just go straight to falling pie? Oh, how FUN! Also,

don't bother with those silly elements. Who heard of foals being able to

control the elements of harmony? Besides, how can they be

used if they can't even be found? Enjoy eternal chaos!

Sincerely, Discord

P.S. Maybe you can start a foal-sitting business!

Luna was still in shock. She didn't know what to do first. No, gathering the foals should be first on her list. But then what? She decided to try and keep this quiet, then after getting the foals, just wing it. She decided to find Fluttershy first. She'll be the easiest. Oh, how wrong she was. When she found her,she ran off in fear. It took half an hour to finally catch her, and get her to stop crying. Next on her list was Applejack.

Luckily, A.J was a lot more willing after noticing Fluttershy was also coming. She wasn't shocked when she made it to Twilight's treehouse. She was used to Twilight stumbling around, looking for something, but Luna wasn't sure as to what it could be at this age. I mean, she was two, what could she possibly be looking for? Apparently, she found it, and with a cry of victory, she ran to her...book fort, and added the last book she found. " Spike, where are you?" Luna asked. "Over here" he called. He was trying to clean up Twilights mess. He came along after realising it wouldnt make a difference. After some coaxing and being promised a book castle, Twilight followed. All that she needed to bring Pinkie was the promise of fun, cupcakes, and Gummy.

Rarity was playing with Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo at the boutique. "Hello Scootaloo. Hi Sweetie Belle. May I take Rarity please?" The crusaders were fine with this, and as Luna left they checked for their cutie marks. Nothing. Finally they found Rainbow Dash flying around. Or, should I say, trying to fly. Luna figured Rainbow would be hardest to coax, so using what little magic she had left, made a forcefield around her and teleported to the castle. As she teleported, she wondered why she felt her magic draining. The answer was almost immediate. "Why hello Luna, what took you so long? Feeling the magic drain from you? I figured." Discord said, sitting on Celestia's throne. "Discord, change them back and leave!" Screamed Luna, who was quite angry, and used the Royal Canterlot Voice. "Oh, are you jealous? I hope not. Sadly I need to create chaos, so this is all I can do. Adios!" With a snap of his claws he was gone. 'What did he mean when he said...'

She couldnt finish her thought, as she was transformed into herself, only at eight years old. "YOU HAVE TO BE KIDDING ME!!!! GUARDS COME TO THE THRONE ROOM! ITS AN EMERGENCY!!" Great, now she SOUNDED like a kid. She sounded so immature. She tried to reverse the spell, but her magic was too weak. All she could manage was a light spell, teleportation, and a forcefield. The guards rushed in, crying out; "Princess Luna what is...it? Princess, what happened?" "Discord happened. Now, I need you to use the books from the royal library and build a book castle for Twilight. I need you to make Pinkie some cupcakes, and keep Rainbow Dash from breaking anything" as she said this, she heard a loud crash and cringed. "I wouldn't worry about AJ or Rarity, there pretty level headed. Fluttershy, just bring in a puppy or something. I have somewhere to be." With a pop, she teleported off.

P.S. This and chapter three are currently under revision for grammatical mistakes.

Reestablished

Lyra Heartstrings just finished up a concert in Canterlot, and was just arriving back in Ponyville. Her instrument of choice was the lyre. Her instrument was fragile and required a delicate touch, but being a unicorn pony who frequently played at important events, she was able to play with great skill using her magic to levitate her lyre, and to smoothly pluck the right notes. She has a gorgeous mint coat, brilliant cyan mane, and tail with a white streak. Her golden eyes seem to glisten in the sun, and her cutie mark is that of a lyre. She remembers the day it appeared. -------

~~~

Her older brother was having a school event, and her parents made her attend. Being only 6 at the time she got bored quickly. They let her wander off to explore all the games set up in the gym. But before she got the chance, she caught sight of a large door that was set slightly ajar. Being as most foals this age are quite curious, she wanders in. It was the backstage for the auditorium part of the gym. She noticed a lyre being left unattended, with a note guide and some sheet music. She got the hang of it quite quickly, and started to enjoy herself. She sat back there for an hour before her parents sent her brother to find her. As he walked up, he heard her practicing. It was beautiful, more beautiful than most of the colts and fillies in his band class. She was so caught up in her playing that she didn't notice him quiet the crowd, or raise the curtain just as she began. In fact, she probably never would have noticed if the crowd hadn't started cheering. She jumped at the sound, but soon joined in, realizing she gained her cutie mark.
~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

--------That was one of the best days of her life. So she was shocked to be interrupted while remembering that day. She was even more shocked when she realized it was a member of the royal guard, asking her to come to the castle in Canterlot immediately. "Seriously? I just got back from their!" Not really caring, they teleported her to the castle.

Octavia Melody just finished packing up her prized cello. She won many awards with this cello and played at even more events. She played her cello standing up, unlike most. This cello was her sweet 16 gift, her most beloved out of them all. She decided Canterlot would live without her, and moved to Ponyville, since it's quieter than most places. Her cello was her life, her dream. She remembers the day she started playing.-----

"CANNOT!"

"CAN TO!!!"

She hated it when her older brother rubbed in the fact of how talented he was at the piano. He was the best in his class. And he always rubbed in the fact that he got his musical cutie mark. Like now. "Your just jealous I'm special" he teased. "I bet I have a musical cutie mark too!" She retorted. "Yeah right, prove it!" He challenged. She thought. Her mom says a mare ever stoops to such a level, but she needed to prove him wrong. "OK, I will. When, where, and how?" She asked. "Now" he said and started dragging her to the music room in there mansion. OK, she told herself. All you have to do is hope, try, and pray that one of them is her talent. She started with the harp. It sounded like a proffesional playing. Her brother seemed impressed. But nothing. She then continued on with the flute, tuba, trumpet, and some drums. All sounded good, but nothing. She walked up to some DJ turn tables. "What's that?" She asked her brother? "Turntables." And with her new knowledge of what it was, she started. It sounded good, but nothing at all. Oh, come on, she thought. Wait, there's one more. She walked up to it, admiring its gorgeous wood finish, the seemingly untouched bow. It was a cello. She walked up, ready to play. "Woah, thats too big and to advanced for an eight year old, you can't play that." He said. "I'm gonna play it!" She couldn't reach it by sitting, so she stood up. She played it with ease. She did it! She finally got her cutie mark. "Wow! I got my cutie mark! Isn't it cool!? What is it?" She asked. "Its a treble clef. It probably symbolizes your skill in all instruments." --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- She was interrupted by a member of the royal guard. They grabbed her hoof and, with not a word, they were teleported off.
