Celestia's nightmare

Celestia rushed to the prison underneath the castle where the strongest magical barrier in existence was held

"You. You're still here. I hate to do this" Her horn started glowing bright as the magic hum slowly silenced

The statue holding the evil God cracked and he was free once more gasping for breath

"You!" He quickly jumped up reaching for Celestia's neck

"Stand down." She generated a magic force field around her knocking Discord back to the floor "I come to ask for your help. I return I grant you your freedom." She motioned for him to follow her

Discord slowly stood up and joined her"You asking for help? My my Celestia, you must be losing your grip."

"Yes. I hate to say it, and I hate asking you of all things to help even more. But you are the only one that can handle such magic"

"The only one to handle such magic? Wait, you don't mean..." Discord looked at her with disbelief

They stood in the great hallway

"Yes" She looked down.

"What is wrong with the sun"

"That" She pointed to the sky to see a bright red ball in place of the normally orange yellow sun

"Discord!" Shining armor shouted as two more guards joined his side "I don't know how you got out but what I do know is how you're going back in!"

"Stand down!" Celestia walked in front of Discord "I brought him out to help with the situation. I realized I can't handle this myself."

"I don't like it either way Princess. i am keeping an eye on you Discord" he shot a nasty glare at him and continued on

"Well that was rude"

"You can't really blame him you almost destroyed Equestria. Twice."

"I didn't try to destroy it. I was simply making it better. But anyway, this sun thing isn't going to work with just us. We must travel to the Queen's territory." He looked at the dark desert.

"But she would never work with me." Celestia explained

"Nor would she work with me. But Given the situation working together is the only option towards survival."
