Discord, the former ruler of chaos, and-well, discord itself, was reformed by the bearers of harmony. Many doubt such a claim, especially after the Tirek period of time, but many ponies that lived near him, disagreed with these claims. Discord, for all purposes, was a reformed spirit. Many will doubt the reality of the reformation, and for the most part, that was ignored by them. Though, if he was reformed, why was Twilight receiving reports of the contrary?

Today was supposed to be peaceful, or, as peaceful as one would get living in Ponyville. All she was supposed to do was read a few books in the castle. Though, who was she to wish for something as mundane as that when living in this quaint town? She sighed, trotting towards the exit of the castle.

"Discord really wanted me to find you," Fluttershy insisted as she walked along said the grumpy princess. Her eyes following the crystal flooring as she calculated. Fluttershy sighed out, resolve growing despite being nervous. "Says its important."

"Of course its important!" Fluttershy cowered instantly at the voice, despite it being her best friend. The cyan pegasus fluttered a bit, trailing behind the mares, rolling her eyes in the process at Fluttershy's careful wording. "He's starting somethin' at Town Hall!" Fluttershy gave a quick glare her way.

"Yes, but I'm sure there is a plausible explanation behind it, he's reformed, Dash," Fluttershy quietly reminded. Rainbow crossed her arms.

"He's starting something-"

"Can you both be a bit quieter?" Twilight warned through grit teeth before flicking off with a teleport, taking both with her. Fluttershy's stomach twisted as she tried gaining her bearings. Teleporting still was harsh-especially on her. Her eyes were dizzy, but she could make out Twilight's figure inching closer to Discord-or perhaps something else, given the angle.

"Discord!" Twilight yelled, getting on level with him. With a click of a claw, she was sitting down on the floor. The creature in question popped back out, slinking past Twilight and Rainbow Dash.

"Consarn it!" Applejack yelled from the crowed, marching up. "What are you up to this time?" Discord waved them off, a smile appearing, then fading fast.

"Oh, why hello friends!" Discord announced, bowing slighting as a tux appeared on his person and a cane being held in a paw. "Nice for you to make an appearance, I'm glad you made it."

"Discord, what is it that you're up to?" Twilight glared, feeling betrayal inch up her stomach. Discord shook his head, gesturing towards the screen.

"Why, I'm not doing anything, you see," Discord said with honesty. "Well-not exactly of course. I'm reformed now, and I shall never do anything too evil again, of course." He knocked on the projection wall he made, gesturing towards it with little care.

"Chaos was never limited to one realm, you see. What was the fun in chaos if it was simply limited on the same ponies? As something short of a God, I am granted the right to view other realms beyond the ones here. Anything with Chaos, really." He dully remarked, flashing one realm to show emphasis. Said realm in particular was one of the darker ones-only by shear coincidence.

The projection showed something straight out of a terrible myth. A small filly-no bigger than that of a school aged one, was flying with all her might. Her orange coat dirty-caked in grease and blood. Her purple eyes frantic before getting pinned down by a larger, cyan figure with the same dirty mess on her coat. Her rainbow mane shimmered and magenta eyes almost mimicking a shade of red in the dark. Her smile was predatory as she cornered her.

"Any last words?" The cyan mare said-sounding similar in nature to Rainbow Dash. The filly in question simply smiled, taking her fate as she stared into the eyes of the monster before her.

"....you have beautiful eyes.."

Click

"That was but a taste of the realms. Though, that was played coincidentally. Shame really, despite going from realm to realm, I lack real control. Whether I truly like it or not, the events play unless some characters beyond myself take control." Rainbow Dash shook, falling to her hunches.

"What--what just..?" Discord cleaned the tip of her muzzle with a feather duster.

"That was the Rainbow Factory, in that world, your the boss of the division. Failed pegasi foals earned their place in the Pegasus Device-in you're view of course. You just visited one of them attempting to escape. That is for another time. Any questions towards it will be held at a later note." Rainbow's face contorted before being waved off by the larger creature. "Surely, this wasn't what I've called upon the ponies for."

"Stop wasting time! What was it that you wanted?" Twilight asked, sighing out. She gave in, practicing her breathing exercise for a moment as Discord tapped the screen.

"While gruesome the realm I showed was, it doesn't top lists of gruesome. Some chaos is rather tasteless. I can't stomach it in one realm in particular. Perhaps its been like that-or not." Discord shrugged. "Anypony well aware of the Human mythology?"

"What has such a myth-" Rarity's proper voice started out, marching along side Applejack. "-have anything to do with us now?"

"Humans exist silly!" Pinkie Pie bounced forward. "You just can't see them right now!" Rarity rolled her eyes.

"Whatever the case, I assure you it means nothing-" Discord booped Rarity's nose with a smile.

"Beep! Wrong answer!" Discord smiled, clicking his claws. Just below Rarity was a door he just made. With the click, it opened with ease. She cried out as she fell through from beneath her. A minute passes before she shows right back up, a bit soaked but nothing too bad.

"Never.Again." She cried, shaking. Rainbow snickered.

"Humans exist, of course, but not particularly here," Discord finished. "That's why I need you here today. You..have to play a game to make sure your human equivalents don't disappear all together off the face of the planet."

"A...game?" Twilight's eyes widen at the prospect, the cogs turning. "There is no time-" Everything around her grew dizzier, spinning as she felt the ground beneath her move. Rainbow's cries were audible and Rarity's fainting sighs were too. She closed her eyes, ready to play it safe until the spinning ceased.

"Its not time to nap, silly!" Pinkie Pie smiled out, tapping her shoulder. Twilight shook her head, her stomach still dizzy as she stood. "We're in a bubble!"

"Discord!" Applejack yelled out. Her eyes following the scenery. It was a decrepit building- it didn't seem stable. She was reminded of the barn Rainbow blasted months ago. The seats wouldn't seem to move-at least by her perspective. They seemed small and stationary-glued to the floor. Too small for foals, she realized. She shook her head. That wasn't all. The flooring was just patchwork. If she were to walk on it, perhaps she'd fall through to Celestia-knows where..."Where are you?"

"Silly me!" Discord chided himself. "I forgot to say where! This is Summer Sun Primary School-where the teenage humans go to die when they chant wrong, if I'm not mistaken. Nightmare has more say in this world than I-but she lacks my powers, thankfully."

"Summer Sun Primary?" Twilight repeated slowly, scanning her memories. She couldn't remember an elementary with that name. She furrowed her brows. It must have been too old to use, clearly. Through her years of reading, however, it wasn't found on a single school building-no matter what she read. None of the Ponyville Library books contained any mention of the school name, maybe Canterlot would? "That...isn't a name in our world, is it?"

"I'm proud to say that you latch on quick, Twilight!" Discord praised. "You should be rewarded with such brilliant words. Though, I could count how many people on my claw know about Summer Sun Primary in this world as well. Its a rather old school with...a rather tasteless form of chaos if I say so myself. So tasteless it has its own nexus."

"A what?" Rainbow cocked her head. Pinkie Pie bounced.

"Ya know how Discord controls other realms? Its like having multiple realms in one realm! The school has multiple forms, which means that if everypony got separated, they, theoretically, would be in the same space, but in a different realm. Time runs differently and you COULD be in the same location as another pony if we were separated, but not see them because they are in a different space! However, items are different. They might show through to the other spaces." Pinkie Pie answered, smiling as she tapped Rainbow's nose. "Bonk!"

"That...was oddly specific Pinkie," Twilight nodded slowly. "That was the gist of it, I believe."

"Many of those who know---" Discord paused, clapping before finishing. "There!"

"There?" Rarity squinted. Her eyes falling on a figure lying still in the darkness before it started inching upwards. The figure rubbed it's eyes, moaning softly.

"The game is about to begin!"

Author's Note

I just REALLY wanted to get to the Corpse Party stuff! I just bought the game so I can recap everything, I think I have some of the character ideas down.
