Chapter 1

My Little Pony: A Incorrect Diamond

Diamond Tiara scoffs as she leaves Sugarcube Corner after that nasty encounter with Spike and his friends. The filly went and badmouth the Dragon and group in their intervention...though does Spike has to put her on the spot like that?

Not only that, there is another matter that doesn't sit well with Diamond: the Elements of Harmony. Yeah, right. They aren't real. For all any pony knows, those stupid Mane Six has use their dumb luck or abilities to stop bad guys, not any powers. Sooner or later, the ponies of Equestria will realize that and know that their heroes are fakes.

"Elements of Harmony, bah," Diamond Tiara remarked with a scoff as she arrives home. Her father isn't home yet as he is out on business and her mother is having lunch with friends. So Diamond Tiara has the place all to herself since Silver Spoon is helping her own parents. "Who needs them? They are fake, just like the dumb lizard and his friends."

Diamond Tiara trots upstairs to her room, throwing darts at pictures of the CMC some more. It's going to be a boring day. The filly was about to do whatever it is that she does when a voice spoke up, "Soooo, think that the Elements of Harmony are fake, eh?"

Diamond Tiara almost jumps out of her pony coat as she turns around seeing a cloaked figure. The filly scowls, "Who are you?! And how did you get in here?!"

"Oh, just nopony in particular. And how do I get here is a mystery. So I repeat, think that the Elements are fake, eh?"

"You bet your flank they are! Now get out or I will call the Royal Guard!"

The figure of course held out a claw, using a spell that made Diamond Tiara floats in the air. The filly yelps as her visitor say, "Now, now, let's not get into any threats; why do you think that the Elements aren't real, Miss Tiara?"

"What else? They are just for show so that attention grabbers like the stupid blank flank's sisters and their friends would be so-called heroes! If they were real, how come we haven't seen Equestria change for the better?" Diamond Tiara scoffs a bit. "Those things don't have any real power; it's just a light show. Lame like the blank flanks!"

"I see...well, Miss Tiara, it's time you see how wrong you really are. I'm about to take you on a little field trip."

"Forget it! You aren't my daddy or teacher!"

"No, but I am your field trip guide." The figure said as he holds up a staff and waves it, causing magical sparks to appear. "Prepare yourself!"

Suddenly the whole room disappears, making Diamond a bit frightened. What the hay is going on here? Soon, the scene changes into a field outside of Ponyville, the figure disappears as the filly was dropped onto her flank.

"Hey, jerk! What gives here," Diamond Tiara demands angrily to the figure who appears to be gone. "Where are you?! I should tell my daddy!!!"

Suddenly a roar is heard, making Diamond Tiara turns to see a giant Minotaur appearing, looking ticked up and mad. The filly looks frightened but then calms down.

"Why should I worry? Just a stupid magic trick; It can't harmed me." Diamond Tiara mumbles to herself. However, the filly ends up speaking another tune as the Minotaur kicks her away, sending her tumbling to the ground. "Hey!"

The figure's voice is heard, remarking, "Miss Tiara, that Minotaur is as real as you and me...though this is a demonstration. It has fallen into darkness, being evil and on a rampage. You think talking would do it any good? Well, think again!"

Diamond Tiara screams as she tries to get to her hooves, the Minotaur is about to attack her. Not fair! Why must she be the one to get hurt like this?! The monster is getting close to crushing her...

But suddenly a rainbow came and stops the Minotaur, causing it to roar as it backs off. Diamond Tiara looks confused and look to see where the attack came from: six familiar ponies though the bully isn't sure as to whom they are. After a while, the rainbow stops as the Minotaur, no longer rampaging, looks confused then heads off.

Diamond Tiara was about to say something until the whole scenery changes, swirling around a bit. The figure reappears, saying, "My, my. That Minotaur was a tough customer...until he was stopped. I wonder how that happened; Via the Elements of Harmony, perhaps?"

"Well...okay, I got to admit, that did imply something...but I am still not convinced." Diamond Tiara said dryly and still unconvinced. For all the filly knows, the Minotaur was only scared off by that light show.

"So, still not convinced? Well, allow me to show you something else. Tell me, do you have a friend you care about?"

Diamond Tiara couldn't answer as her whole world goes black once more. The next thing she knew, the filly finds herself strapped on a table in a dungeon, much to her shock and horror.

"Hey...what is this? Some sort of bad joke," Diamond Tiara demands as she struggles in her straps. "Let me go! Hey, weirdo! What are you trying to prove here; hello?!"

"Hello, Diamond." A familiar voice spoke up. Diamond Tiara looks shocked as her friend Silver Spoon is nearby, her mane and dress are messed up and she got a knife. The filly got a creepy look on her face.

"S-s-silver; Err, what's going on; Can you help me out here?"

"Ooooh, sorry; can't. You see, I want to play a little game...which I like to call doctor. And guess what? You're it?"

It didn't take long for Diamond Tiara to realize the horrifying truth: her friend wants to cut her into pieces. The bully screams, "Silver, what are you doing?! Why?! You are my friend?!"

"Oh...but a new friend of mine has shown me the light...and she told me to make sure that every pony are played with. Fun, fun, fun," Silver Spoon laughs madly as she comes over with the knife. Diamond Tiara saw an green growing light in her eyes. Her friend must be hypnotized.

"Wait, Silver, please, don't...please, I'm your friend..."

"Bye bye; Hee hee!"

Diamond Tiara screams as it looks like she's done for...when the door of the dungeon broke loose as a familiar rainbow appears. Silver Spoon yells as the attack hits her, covering her with a glow. Her friend watch as the green glow left her eyes before she groans and fell to the floor.

Diamond Tiara saw the Mane Six smiling once more, wearing the Elements of Harmony before looking at her friend who got up, back to normal while asking, "W...what happened?"

"Silver," Diamond Tiara ask in a whisper. Suddenly her whole world disappears again, "Now what?!"

"You see? Your friend was taken over by an evil spell and the Elements free her." The figure said as he appears once more to Diamond Tiara. "There wasn't any other way to save Silver Spoon. Now then...now do you believe that the Elements are fake? They have saved Princess Luna from the darkness controlling her and already they did the same thing to Lorcan."

"Well...so far...but how can they help me? I am not a kind filly...never was."

"So, you wish for one more proof? Very well..."

Diamond Tiara yells as she fell down to a wasteland...this time with six familiar Elements nearby. The filly looks confused. Where are the bearers?! Why are the Elements here with her?!

Diamond Tiara hear laughter and turns...to see a group of sinister Dragons flying over her. The filly asks nervously, "Err, are you with the lizard's grandpa or..." The attackers roars as they send down flames after her causing Diamond Tiara screams as she runs off with the Elements floating after her, "Why are these things following me?!"

"Simple, in this time and space, you secretly took the Elements in wanting to learn if there was any real magic to them." The figure's voice explains to Diamond Tiara. "Don't pretend that you aren't secretly curiously, Miss Tiara. You may claim that the Elements aren't real but they know otherwise. Perhaps deep down, you are a kind filly who hasn't seen the light fully yet..."

"Are you saying that I care for stupid blank flanks?! You must be mad!"

"Am I? AM I?!"

Diamond Tiara finds herself trapped against a wall, the Dragons are closing in. The bully looks more freaked out. The Elements can't help her, the bearers are nowhere in sight and these charm things only work for them. She's dead. She is dead...

But in a moment without delay, the Dragons charge at Diamond Tiara but then mysterious magic is activated, casting a barrier that blocks the attack. The filly looks shocked as she is floating right out of the danger, watching her attackers roar and shoot flames in fury and defeat.

Diamond Tiara was soon floated right back home and in her room. She sighs while saying, "Thank goodness. For a moment, I thought..." The filly yelps as she saw the Mane Six, Silver Spoon, Filthy Rich and everyone else waiting for her, giving Diamond Tiara glares, "Oh...hi. Look, this isn't what it looks like..."

"Do you believe the Elements now?" Twilight spoke in an eerie voice, just like Lorcan.

"Do you, freak?!" The CMC demands to Diamond Tiara eerily. "They aren't real, you know!"

"Do you believe in the Elements now? Do you? How about now," Everyone else booms as they close in on Diamond Tiara. The filly screams as she covers her head, the voices echo all over like mad. The Elements disappear, much to her shock. They saved her so far...but can these charms save her from her own disbelief that is represented by these images.

"Yes, yes, I do believe, I do believe...please, leave me alone!" Diamond Tiara sobs. She wants these images to leave her alone. "I believe now! Figure, I get it, please!!!"

Suddenly Diamond's world fades to black before she finds herself in her room again. The bully saw the images gone, sweating a bit. The figure reappears, a hidden smile behind his hood saying, "So you believe now."

"Yes...I can't believe that I'm saying this but the Elements are real. They saved me from dangers, free my world...but it appears that only I can save me from my own disbelief..."

"You see? I betcha this urges you to change your ways?"

"You're kidding, right?" Diamond Tiara asks the figure in annoyance. He stares while saying, "Yes, I admit it, the Elements are truly real...but I am not giving up my bullying ways or finding ways of making the lives of those blank flanks and their friends miserable! You think just because I admit to anything else that I would change just like that?! Not a chance!"

"That wasn't my intention. I was planning on making you see the light of the Elements. Someday, you will see how your bullying and ways will hurt even those around you. And one day, when someone you cares about, besides your best friend, gets hurt or worst...that will be the day you will change." The figure said mysteriously.

The world went black before going back to normal. The figure is no longer around. Diamond Tiara sat on her bed, sweating and looking a bit shaken up after the trip that she has been through.

"The Elements are real...they helped even me...but what is that freak talking about the day will change when someone I care about besides my best friend gets hurt?" Diamond Tiara asks a bit quietly and concerned.

As the filly ponders this riddle, we see a figure whose was in the shadows whose saw and heard what Diamond Tiara said. (You know who she is) She says, "So she now understands that the Elements of Harmony are real. Better let my big brother knows about this, he will be so surprise like I was when I heard it."

With that she heads off. Outside Diamond's window, the figure known as Lorcan smirked in amusement. Diamond Tiara has finally accepted that the Elements of Harmony are in fact real...and who better than to show her the hard truth than the one who almost blast her and Silver Spoon up?

"Miss Tiara, one day, you will change like I did...just not today." Lorcan chuckles as he disappears into the show from where he came from.
