Path of Discord

“There's nothing we can't overcome if we do it together!” I cheered. The others nodded at me, and together, we took our first step into the maze. We would defeat Discord. We had to.

I felt, rather than saw, a shadow over me, and suddenly, all went dark for a moment. When I opened my eyes again, no longer did the walls of the palace garden maze surround me, but rather, some strange sort of stone walls. This had to be the work of Discord. I'd just disregard it and move on. I knew these gardens, and no amount of making the grass look like stone tile and the shrubbery... like...

I tapped on a wall with a hoof. “Am I really inside a building?”

“Indeed you are, Twilight Sparkle,” a mocking voice echoed around me.

I tensed. “Discord! Where have you taken me? This wasn't one of the rules of your game!”

He appeared before me. “Oh, the rules are the same. I've just... changed the setting a bit. And to even things out...” My horn reappeared. The relieving sense of magic flowed back into me, but I couldn't afford to relax. “There. Your precious magic is with you again. Never said I was unfair, did I?” He across his arms and snorted.

“What—“

“Quiet, Twilight Sparkle, and listen.” In an instant, he was right before me, and I got a faceful of Discord. I kept myself from panicking. “As you've probably guessed, things aren't quite as they seem. Since you're Celestia's—“ I resisted the urge to correct him on the use of her proper title. “—personal student, I thought I'd see your worth myself. To get to the Elements of Harmony, you must head for the middle and avoid any distractions.”

“Distractions? Like what?”

He smirked. “Aww, but that would just be ruining the surprise, wouldn't it?” His face grew grim. “The new first rule, since I've been kind enough to give you ponies your magic and wings back, is that anypony who fails to get to the goal in the allotted time loses.”

“W-what happens to the losers? And how long do we have? And where is everypony?”

He vanished. I grit my teeth. This was going to be a long trek. “All part of the surprise, Twilight Sparkle!” His laughter echoed after me as I grimly set forth, hoping to find my friends.

After walking for some time through the strange halls—oddly reminiscent of Castle Canterlot, in fact—I came to a large room that lacked the strange area lighting that had characterized the altered maze thus far. In response, I lit up my horn with a light spell and cautiously entered. “Hello? Is anypony there?”

A muffled yell was all the answer I got. As my sense of direction told me forward was the way to go, I advanced towards the sound. Eventually, the darkness lifted to reveal—“Rainbow Dash!”

Rainbow Dash, minus her wings, was listlessly hanging in the grip of some orange blob. She was suspended in air, with the blob's tentacles wrapped lovingly around her. One tentacle was wrapped around her tail, lifting it into the air, while the others pulsated within her slit and other orifices. I recoiled from the scene in horror. Milky white fluid oozed from every hole on her body, and her eyes, though desperately pleading to me, looked glassy and lifeless at the same time.

“Rainbow Dash!” I called again, torn between my need to rescue my friend and my desire to not be the creature's next plaything.

Rainbow Dash turned to me just as the tentacle in her mouth withdrew, leaving a trailing line of fluid between her sticky muzzle and the throbbing tentacle. I couldn't help but be impressed by her—one tentacle would make even a well-hung stallion jealous. Rainbow Dash coughed, spraying monster semen over the floor. “T-Twilight... help me... please... I'm almost starting to... to... to like it! You've got your horn, save—“

Before she could go on, a different tentacle shoved its way into her mouth, and she moaned in pleasure, her eyes rolling back into her head as she eagerly sucked on its impressive length. When had Rainbow Dash learned to deepthroat like that? Her stomach was actually starting to swell from all she'd swallowed.

I put a hoof forward, then hesitated. While the creature still seemed to be focused on Rainbow Dash, I couldn't be sure that it wouldn't turn its attentions to me, and while a certain horrifyingly hot part of me wouldn't mind that, I had a mission to do. One more pressing concern came to the forefront of my mind:

Could I even be sure this was Rainbow Dash at all?

Sure, she looked and sounded like Rainbow Dash... but Rainbow Dash was loyal. She wouldn't be giving into some monster's perversions like that. She wasn't even struggling or lashing out... in fact, I could have sworn that the tentacle holding her tail up barely needed to do anything—she was offering herself to it!

“You're not Rainbow Dash.” The not-Rainbow Dash closed its eyes and moaned in response, too focused on the hot, throbbing tentacle in its mouth to reply. “Rainbow Dash is loyal. She wouldn't abandon her friends like this by betraying our mission for sex. And on top of that, Discord gave us our horns and wings back!” I shouted at the top of my lungs, “Bad try, Discord. I saw through your little illusion!”

My words echoed off the walls, and the beast attending to the not-Rainbow Dash ceased its movement after sending one last surge of jizz into her. It dropped the not-Dash onto the floor, eliciting a moan of pleasure as the cum—too much for any pony to bear—slowly leaked from her mouth, anus, and slit. She licked her lips clean. I shuddered to think that I had thought that was my friend.

The beast, meanwhile, surged toward me, extending a few tentacles my way. Panicking, I spotted a door on the other side and put most of my magical power into a quick teleport. No time for screwing around.

A blink later, I was just on the other side of the door, where the ambient light had returned. I collapsed, panting. Blind teleporting was a risky business, and I had been lucky not to end up partway through the wall, my rear to the monstrosity that would have gladly used and abused it. I panted, trying to keep my breaths shallow as I listened for any movement. All I needed was a few moments to recover and I'd be on my way.

Pant. The noise from the other side ceased.

Pant. A slow rumbling came my way. Fuck!

Pant. The rumbling grew closer. No. No no no no!

Pant. The rumbling stopped right on the other side of the door. No. I wasn't going to lose my virginity: not now, not to this!

Pant. “Twilight, save me!” Oh, the not-Dash. I closed my eyes in thanks. With any luck, she'd distract it.

Pant. More panting from the other side as the tentacled abomination fucked the fake Dash's brains out. Again.

Pant. I got up and walked onward, shaky at first, but with increasing strength. Clearly, Discord was going to stop at nothing if he was willing to stoop this low.

Pant. All I had to do was find my friends and stand together with them. We'd escape these horrors and save Equestria if it killed me. Although the horror I'd seen lingered in my mind, I tried to focus it into a righteous anger.

Discord, you will pay for even thinking about doing that to my friend.
