The six looked at Cortez in awe, and Cortez looked at them in shock that they had not let him kill Discord,'Why? Why didn't you let me kill him, he transformed your peaceful land into a land of chaos, why spare him?' As he turned to face them, he saw them ready an explanation. Unfortunately he was already storming off into the forest before they could deliver

"Wait!" Twilight stepped forward to explain, but he was gone.

"Don't worry sugercube, you did what was right." Applejack reassured her.

"Poor Discord, the flames are still there." Fluttershy said sympathetically.

"I personally think he go exactly what he deserved, but no one deserves a death sentence." Rarity said to the sky,"You did the right thing deer."

"Yeah, if he comes and try's to kill anything again, we'll kick his flank!" Rainbow dash told Twilight.

"I still can't help but think what could drive some pony to kill like that." Twilight paused,"But I'm going to find out!"

Cortez stormed out to the Forrest and took his anger out on several unfortunate Timberwolves who where shredded faster than a cheeta on Hermes Boots. He also flew up and with an almighty roar crashed into a mountain, making it much shorter than it had been minutes earlier. His anger of the monsters salvation had maddened him beyond reason.

Minutes later he pulled out his rocket launcher, and filled it with rocket lV's, before blasting a section of the Forrest to kingdom come, and then he flew up and destroyed the place he had been standing.

After a long stay atop the mountain, calming himself, He realized the life of Discord was not truly that important to him. This didn't make him any less angry at the Lord of Chaos though.

As he slowly flew home he still tried to comprehend the ponies lettering him live. He had destroyed their land, and probably would have killed them. Cortez did not know about the element of harmony, and thought the only reason they had prevailed, was because he had distracted Discord, giving them enough time to trap him in a stone prison.

It was afternoon by the time he had went back to his house, to find the pirate captain passed out in his living room, a bottle if ale next to him. He went to talk to Levi,"The ponies let him live, after all he had done, they allowed him to live!"

The guide looked out the window,"Well then why are things back the way they were, oh and winter is coming, you should winterize the house and prepare a room for Santa himself." The guide sidetracked, not wanting Cortez to let his rage surface.

"They trapped him in the stone prison he probably just escaped! What's to say the same will not repeat?" Cortez asked the guide.

"There's you, you whipped him and could anything here be more powerful than the lord of chaos himself." He could not be more wrong.

Twilight was going mad searching the canterlot archives for something that could say what this creature could possibly be, with no success. She had skimmed the most ancient books, written many thousands of years before. She was just about to give up when she found something with a picture of something that looked rather like the thing that was about to kill Discord. It showed how this being killed its foes, without mercy, and noting could challenge it. It was also kind, and saved many ponies, before it just, disappeared. She also learned that this being was called a "Terrarian", and that they come from the land known as "Terraria".

This explained some things, and she concluded that this Terrarian needed to be found and taught the magic of friendship, she got looking right away.

After many hours of searching, she decided to go back home. She got on for an uneventful train ride, except when some crazy light green unicorn was going mad asking about the creature she had seen,"You must have been searching the canterlot archives too, my names Lyra, what was it like, do you know what humans are? My name's Lyra and sorry, I'm just so exited that I might finally get to meet a human!" She practically screamed in delight.

"Yes, I'm Twilight, it stood on its back legs and nearly killed Discord, no, you already said that and I noticed!" Twilight was already exausted and did not feel like dealing with crazy mares.

"Well hi Twilight, now as I was saying I've been trying to prove the existence of humans for years now, but every pony thinks I'm crazy."

'I agree with them' Twilight thought to herself,"Well sorry to disappoint you but I don't think it's 'Human'" Twilight answered, 'ugh why does this mare have to know everything about this thing'.

"So than what is it, answer that!" She said defiantly.

The train stopped and the door opened,"Well, I've really got to be going then, bye!" Twilight sped off as fast as she possibly could.

"Wait, I have another three hundred and sixty-seven questions to ask!" Lyra chased Twilight through the Ponyville. Twilight kept running "How tall was it? Did it have hands? How did it hold the weapon?" Twilight ran into her house and slammed the door hard and Lyra continued shouting out questions, but the sound was muffled by the door.

"Well, did ya find anything?" Spike asked rather enthusiastically as he tossed an empty container of ice cream over his shoulder.

"I did and you should be getting to sleep." Twilight pointed toward his bed.

"Awww com'on Twilight, can't I stay up a little longer?" Spike pleaded.

"No, you should have been in bed hours ago, young dragons need their sleep." Spike made a noticeable humph noise as he trudged off to bed. Twilight however, was up for some late night stargazing. She pointed her telescope toward the moon and couldn't help but notice something about it was off, it looked like a snow man!

Several minutes earlier, Cortez sat on his deck, and kept thinking about the monster, and as it became night, he felt a chill in the air. He ran in and said to Levi,"What time of year do you think it is?"

"I believe it is Mid summer." Levi replied.

"It seems a little cold for summer." Cortez told him.

Levi consulted a telescope and some charts,"Look out at the moon."

Cortez looked out the window at the moon,"That's no moon" He loaded his Venus magnum,"That's a snowman!"
