An Arrow from Heaven
Prologue: When Planets Collide
Load Full StoryNext Chapter"Discord, don't do this!" Celestia pleaded with tears rolling down her bruised cheeks. Discord simply laughed at Celestia's begging, taking a defiant stance as he glared daggers at the Sun Goddess.
"There is nothing you can do to stop me, Celestia. I am tired of your rule over the land. The throne belongs to ME!" Discord roars as his chaotic magic surges in his palms.
"Now I shall eradicate Equestria of it's beloved leader!" Discord scream as he charges Celestia, his lions paw and eagle claw pulsating with magic. Celestia gasps and takes flight to avoid his attack. The Draconequus growls and takes to the skies like a shot. The two soared through the skies above Canterlot; Discord taking shots with the intention to end Celestia's life. Celestia would fire back with shots to either collide with Discords, or to provide a small distraction to try and escape.
However, this only enraged the God of Chaos further.
In a burst of speed, Discord tackles Celestia and sends the two falling to the ground below. With a sickening thud, the Draconequus stands victorious over Celestia.
"Dearest Tia, it seems you and your subjects have lost. And now, Equestria will be covered in my chaos forever!" Discord declares. Celestia gasps, regaining her breath, and struggles to get up. Discord chuckles slightly, watching the Sun Goddess cling to life. "Just give up now. There is no way for you to win." Discord says.
Celestia stands at full height, gasping as the ground below her rumbles a bit. Suddenly, the ground cracks and six bolts of light soar up and twist into each other, coming down on Celestia in a brilliant display of colors. Once the light cleared, Celestia stood there with six gems hovering about her. "I may not be able to defeat you myself, but with the powers of the Elements of Harmony, I will be able to beat you once again Discord." Celestia says.
Discord simple gawks, then breaks into a fit of mad laughter.
"Y-you honestly think t-t-the elements can de-defeat me?! Even after your precious little ponies failed? You've got to be joking!" Discord says, wiping a tear from his gray cheek with a eagle talon. Celestia simply glares and begins to hover, the six gems floating around beginning to spin. Discord watches with slight interest as the gems blur into streaks of light and envelope Celestia. Celestia roars a war cry as her horn explodes in a blinding white light. Discord is forced to shield his eyes and stand to stand his ground. Slowly, the light faded and Celestia laid on the ground, exhausted. Discord looks about himself and breaks into another round of crazed laughter.
"It seems you've failed!" Discord says with a menacing smirk.
"Oh no, dear sister, I have won. Do you not feel that something is off?" Celestia asks. Discord raises an eyebrow, then gasps, looking at the perfectly fine landscape around him.
"My chaos! Where has my beautiful chaos gone?!" Discord cries out. He rounds on Celestia, fury boiling in his eyes. "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!?"
Celestia simply chuckles.
"I've transported the planet out of its' orbit. I don't know where to, but we should learn soon enough..." Celestia says, looking to the skies above. Discord does the same, his breathing panicked and short; he had never heard of this kind of magic in the past.
"W-what am I going to d-do...? I feel weak..." Discord mutters.
"In order to transport the planet, I needed to sever my connection to the sun, thus temporarily draining me of my magic, while also draining you of yours and eliminating your influences. Oh, looks like we've arrived..." Celestia says, pointing to the skies with a shaky hoof. Looming above them in the skies sat a planet, much to the appearance of Equis; multi-colored lands and dark blue oceans.
And it was approaching fast.
"You intend on crashing Equis into another planet..." Discord mutters with sudden realization. Celestia nods slowly and smiles. The Draconequus growls and punches Celestia. "YOU ANCIENT FOOL! YOU'VE DOOMED THE ENTIRE PLANET TO DESTRUCTION!" he roars.
"If keeping you from victory mean destroying the planet, then it's worth the sacrifice." Celestia says. Discord was about to speak, but a violent explosion cuts him off, the skies above becoming filled with fire and chaos.
