Chaotic Once Moreby Comet BlueberryChaptersThree Mares, A Filly, and A DraconequusDiscord's Back...in A Chaotic Way Rules and Chaos Mount Wingless Three Mares, A Filly, and A Draconequus "The Great and Powerful Trixie..." Trixie uttered, then squinted, as if forgetting her lines, which is the literal truth,"AHA! The Great and Powerful Trixie needs some blueberry cupcakes." She gazed out of the magic show caravan's window and sighed unhappily. Few days ago, Twilight Sparkle and her dumb friends have ruined the opportunity to be the star of Ponyville. "Ugh, the Great and Powerful Trixie does not care about such 'trivial'," She wrinkled her nose. Actually, she cared a lot about it and it was very annoying important news for her! "Matters," Trixie completed her sentence, sniffing," All Trixie needs now is some blueberry cupcakes. Oh look, Trixie's nearing...Ponyville!" Her eyes widened in horror. "No, no, nonononono, Trixie will not come here. Trixie's just looking for blueberry cupcakes!" She moaned as she levitated the automatic lever controlling the movement of the wagon. "Ugh. I just need some blueberry cupcakes!" "Did you say blueberry cupcakes?!" a way too familiar, talkative, delighted voice shrieked, "I'VE GOT THESE!!! Oh hi Trixie meanie pants! Want some?!" Pinkie Pie's delighted head poked out of a nearby pastry shop: Sugarcube The Next Corner! "Not Pinkie Pie!" Trixie was petrified with exasperation, "Oh hi pink pony. How much--," she gritted her teeth," Is it for a cupcake? And, what are you here for?" "It's hmm-how much is it for??" Pinkie twitched her eyebrows," But, silly, I know how to answer the next question. I'm here to sell cupcakes!! Sorry, I still don't know the price, though." "PINKIE! READ THE PRICE ON THE ORDER LIST!" A mare's raspy voice shrieked. "Oh. Yeah. Umm exactly money sign one period five zero!" Trixie rolled her lilac eyes. This clearly was wasting her time. "Trixie does not understand," she replied, scoffing. "PINKIE! You can't even explain correctly to a customer, here, let me!" A rainbow-maned blue pegasus pushed the pink earth pony and then gasped. "What?" Trixie asked, "Rainbow Dash???!!!" "TRIXIE?!!!" Rainbow Dash clearly sounds more irritated than angry. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!" "Well, clearly I am here to help Pinkie Pie bake cupcakes," Rainbow Dash said," I thought you were never gonna step into Ponyville with not even one hoof!" "Trixie wasn't stepping into that town one little bit. I was just here to buy some pastries because I'm hungry." The unicorn facehoofed. It was so evident! "Oh," Rainbow Dash relaxed. Then her face tightened. "Wait...are you...lying? Everyone knows the Great and Powerful Trixie is famous for lying sometime. And don't you dare get into another magic duel with Twilight. You caused enough trouble already!" "Well, Trixie's planning to, anyway. If you don't hurry up and give her Trixie's blueberry cupcakes." Trixie answered sharply. "Fine, fine," the pegasus rolled her violet eyes, " The price is $1.50. And would you please stop speaking in the third person? Here you go. Money?" "Oh." Trixie gave a slight grin. She levitated her hat from her head and searched through it. Then she opened her cape. Stars. Only stars. And purple. Where's the money? She had brought the money. "Wait." Trixie turned to her caravan and started to search through the junk piled there. "Ugh, what a crisis," Rainbow Dash groaned, barely moaning. Trixie, however, was really in crisis. The Great and Powerful Trixie always hid her bills under her pillow. But it was gone. GONE!!! "I'VE BEEN ROBBED!!!" Trixie wailed, giving a stretch, her looks worried, and a meek smile on her face. "Then I suppose these are not for you," Rainbow replied as she put the bag with the cupcakes on the floor. "But Trixie's really been robbed. If you don't believe me, come see!" Trixie lead a skeptic Rainbow Dash to her caravan and levitated the pillow away from the bed. "WHAT??? " "Liar," Rainbow said sarcastically," you just wanna waste my precious time! " "It's the truth!" Trixie hurriedly grabbed the bag with her cupcakes, and crossly kicked over some money and was just about to go when she was stopped by a dog's paw. "DISCORD?!" exclaimed the mares ( even Pinkie Pie, who had trotted out the kitchen door ). "Surprise, ponies?" Discord asked in a trolling voice. "Trixie knew it! Only Discord could've hidden it somewhere else!" Trixie cried, triumphant, stamping her hoof on the ground. "What?!" Discord gazed at the furious unicorn innocently," You looked at the other end of the bed." "Fine, smarty smarty draconequus." "I AM smart." "Whatever! Discord! The Great and Powerful Trixie wants you to stop this this very INSTANT!!" Trixie hollered furiously at the chuckling draconequus, who was looking at her with sly red pupils. "For once, I have to agree with Trixie," Rainbow Dash added, tiredly, " Clear out, Dipcord." "It's Discord, though, not Dipcord," replied Discord, as he pat Rainbow Dash's rainbow mane,"Mind you, Rainbow Crash." "Ugh," the pegasus facehoofed in disgust. "Ya know, this is getting awkward," Pinkie Pie said, her blue eyes looking around nervously," And with a little filly around too." "Puh-leeze-there is no little filly around," Trixie replied haughtily. "Hey, aren't you the unicorn who upsetted RD?" A filly's tough voice cut in," Trixie, am I right?" Scootaloo smiled at Rainbow, who gave her a tight one in return. "Hi Scoots." Pinkie Pie gasped. "Rainbow, that's no way to greet a friend! You're supposed to say: HIYA SCOOTS!" She giggled," Well, anyway, here to buy some cupcakes??" "Yeah sure," Scootaloo blushed. "Scootaloo, you aren't blushing because of MEEEE, aren't you?!" Pinkie Pie inquired. "Not exactly. You see, I followed Rainbow Dash here." Scootaloo said. Trixie groaned. "This is ridiculous. The Great and Powerful Trixie cannot stand this. I'm leaving. Really, this is g-" Her mouth was clapped over by a pink hoof. "Shh, but it's romantic!" Pinkie whispered. Discord stifled a laugh. "Ugh," Trixie facehoofed, "Just give Trixie her blueberry cakes, okay?" Rainbow Dash cursed. She lifted the bag and kicked it over to the unicorn. "WOW!" Scootaloo cheered and squealed," Now that's called a soccer bag goal!" Rainbow grinned. "One day, little sis, you'll be as awesome as me," She spread open her strong, fast wings out for Scootaloo to adore, taking in all the little filly's admiration, "You'll soon learn everything. Of course. From me. Flying, how to tackle bad guys, how to do a sonic Scootaloo-boom." She winked at Scootaloo's delighted face. "And teach me how to kick bags to tackle unicorns?" Scootaloo asked, pointing her hoof at Trixie, who was sprawled out on the ground, with Pinkie having a mock-shocked face and Discord laughing , unable to stop. Rainbow's mouth fell open at the damage she had caused with the kick. "Huh?" Trixie slowly opened her lilac eyes," OW, what?! Ouch." "Somepony gave you black eyeliner," Discord snapped his claw and a mirror appeared. He pawed it over to Trixie, who grudgingly picked it up, ready to see her own beautiful face, no matter how dazed she was. Trixie gasped. "No." A black eye. A cut on her face. Trixie remembered. "RAINBOW DASH! Trixie's gonna have her revenge!" She cried as she rubbed her bruised eye and feel the lightning-shape injury on her cheek. When the pegasus had kicked the bag here, Trixie was unsuspecting and smash! Right on the eye. The sharp ends had scratched down on her blue fur, leaving a cut. With that, she stormed angrily to get Rainbow Dash. But before she can do it, for the third time, she was stopped by a eagle's claw. "Revenge," smirked Discord," I have completely forgotten the chaos, sweetness, and taste this word had." Discord's Back...in A Chaotic Way Discord's Back...in A Chaotic Way "Now look what you've done, Trixie!" Rainbow Dash growled as she shot the astonished unicorn a scowl of pure anger. "What did Trixie do?" Trixie asked, shocked. Rainbow pointed her head toward Discord, her rainbow mane nodding. Trixie looked. Scootaloo looked. RD facehoofed. Pinkie Pie gasped. It was a scene that had happened years ago, but why? "Chaos," Discord said the word slowly," Revenge." His words were slow and unsteady, as if he had just learned them, like a foal in the school. His face broke into a wide, evil grin, and his red eyes glinting, insane. "No," uttered Scootaloo," No." Trixie bit her lip. Wh-wh-what had exactly happened...? Why was Discord like that? Wait, she was the one who had done it! She renewed Discord, in a bad way! She gulped. Uh-oh. She was in trouble. No wait, big trouble. Very big trouble. Scared, Trixie's regretful lilac eyes raised up the maniacal Discord. Lightning was flashing. BOOM. Thunder. Chaos. "Discord is back now, you see," the draconequus chuckled evilly, "Well, I am always here, but I'm back in a chaotic way." "So whaddya gonna do? Set up some chaos?" Rainbow Dash demanded boldly, as Scootaloo hid under her wing, frightened. "Of course, my dear Rainbow Dash," Discord answered, laughing sarcastically. "Well Discord what kind?" Pinkie Pie piped up, eagerly," Are you fooling on us? Turn yourself back to your old self, dude! Huh, your dear Rainbow Dash? You love her? Let's call for a date party! Ooh-ooh, I know why you're acting like this. You wanna show us your excellent drama skills. Are you acting The Return of Harmony the musical? You've got such chaotic acting skills, Discord! You're gonna be a hit in the show faster than I can say,' Pinkie Pie picked a peck of pickled peppers!" "Pinkie Pie, Pinkie Pie," smirked Discord," Can't you see that talking has its limits?! " He snapped his claw and a zipper appeared at the edge of the pink mare's mouth. Zipping it, Pinkie protested. "Mmm-bfff!" Pinkie tried to say. "Oh of course you want your BFF Dashie here to have the Zipper trick too? Not bad, Pinkie." Discord smiled slyly. "Oh no, Dipcord," the pegasus mare bucked up her back hooves, defiantly. "And you're not trying to hurt me either!" Trixie added, glaring at the spirit of chaos. Discord stopped. "You're the source, dearie, why would I dream of doing so...?" "Yeah, you caused this mess, The Lame and Powerless Trixie," Rainbow yelled," Alright, punk, it's all YOUR FAULT!" "Me?" "DUH!" Rainbow Dash shot back," If it weren't for you, you wouldn't get chaos back!" Suddenly, her mouth was suddenly zipped up by Discord. "Ugh," she moaned. "Well, at least Trixie isn't harmed," Trixie said , fluffing her silver mane. "Gosh darn you, Trixie Lulamoon!" Scootaloo blurted out," Pinkie, Rainbow you okay?" The two mares nodded their heads reluctantly. "Trixie the Great & Powerful will not be darned!" The unicorn cried as her horn engulfed in a shiny pink aura. She shot some magic at Scootaloo, Rainbow, and Pinkie, only to unzip the zippered mouths of them. "Hey! I mastered that spell!" complained Discord. "Yeah yeah right." Rainbow Dash glared," Trixie, just...ugh!!!" Trixie raised her eyebrows. She looked at Discord enviously. "What is it, Trixie Lulamoon?" "I brought you back to chaos. You give me a wish." The unicorn's face lighted up, a creepy yet wicked smile forming at the base of her lips. "So, Miss Trixie Lulamoon, what is this wish of yours?" Discord asked,"Your wish is my command. Well not exactly. But choose one wish, dearie, a wise, chaotic one. For now I am the Genie!!! MWAHAHAHHA!" Trixie scowled. "Oh. Well, I want Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo to get out of my way!" "WHAT?" The 'sisters' looked at each other. "Your wish will be granted." Flicking his claw, Discord smiled. He knew exactly how to. "Wait! How about me! Why isn't Pinkie Pie featured in this wish! Party planners are the best of the best that should be in every single thing possible. And for the bestest party pony, Pinkie Pie here, why not her?" Pinkie Pie yelled. But no, Rainbow and Scootaloo were changed only. "Omipony!" Pinkie whispered loudly. "This wasn't what I was asking for!" Trixie gaped at the two pegasi. "Sorry, wish granted." Discord shrugged, clearly showing false innocence beyond his chaotic draconequus heart. That was what took the two pegasi to realize. "AHHHHHHHHH!" Rainbow had became a filly. And Scootaloo now is a full grown mare. "This is awkward," Scootaloo looked , embarrassed, at her blank flank and her wings. "A filly again?" RD gasped," This is awesome!" Pinkie stifled a laugh. Rainbow flew up to the air, whooping, only stopped to see the wistful face of Scootaloo. "Oh Scoots," Rainbow said softly as she got down. "It's okay. The spell will be reversed." "Okay. B-b-but could it?" Scootaloo sniffed. "Ask Discord!" Pinkie Pie yelped. "Ugh, now they're more troublemakers.." Trixie gritted her teeth at Discord, fiercely giving him a hard and unpleasant glare," DISCORD!!" "What? You want the curse reversed?" Discord asked evilly," Then go into the Chaos Castle of mine and search through every room to find the spell-book. Only three days . Or Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo will be like this forever. A curse! Now come along, you dumb ponies. Yes, even you, Pinkie Pie and Trixie. These two will accompany the cursed." There was insane laughter as the three mares and one filly found themselves in a large dark room. "Wh-where are we?" Trixie uttered out loud. "The Chaos Castle." Discord's face appeared on the ground. "AHHHH!" Trixie screamed, slipping, then falling on the floor, slamming into the other ponies as maniacal chaotic laughter filled the dark, dark, room. Rules and Chaos Rules and Chaos "Trixie! You need a diet!" Pinkie Pie squealed as she wriggled out of the pony pile. "Mff! Ouchie! Rainbow, why you have so hard bones even as a filly?" "Ugh, Pinkie," Rainbow face hoofed," This is no time for puns! We need to get Scoots back to a filly and me to a mare!" "I agree." A hollow voice laughed. "Ah!" Trixie fell, shocked and astonished by the second sudden appearance of the chaotic draconequus's face appearing on the Crystal ground," Discord, could you stop scaring The Great and Powerful Trixie?" She demanded, coldly, at the chuckling chaotic creature. "Hilarious, Trixie Lulamoon!" Discord burst out laughing as Scootaloo stared with sad eyes, already disappointed at the lack of a cutie mark and flying as a full-grown mare. "Listen you!" Rainbow flew out of nowhere, growling at Discord's crystal face, as she tried to pin it down with her hooves," Carefully, you troll. Be sure you keep our promises and remember to change us back, Dipcord!" "Fine, fine," Discord waves his paw absentmindedly," But whenever could you get my name correct? It's Discord, not Dipcord. That sounds like some sort of XO sauce or something like that." "WILL YOU GUYS SHUT UP!!" Trixie hollered, her horn engulfing in a pink aura," STOP THIS NOW!! I can't stay here all day! The Appleloosa ponies really need my show! Unicorns are extraordinary there!" This burst of rage caused silence with a stunned Rainbow , a mocking Discord, an afraid Scootaloo, and a gaping Pinkie, who right away, began to talk. "You're not making any pony smile, Trixie!" She brightened. "Y-yeah, Pinkie's right," Scootaloo managed a tight smile. Trixie growled, annoyed, clearly knowing she was defeated. "Okay okay Trixie will stop. But Discord, you're supposed to explain rules or something, right?" "Well, good thing her brain is in the right place," mumbled Rainbow Dash. The mares and filly watched as Discord pulled a lecturing board, put on some glasses, and transformed himself to a teacher-like Discord. "Since I explained the rules of only three days and searching through every room to find the spell-book or else these ponies won't change back into their normal horsy selves, I'm going to explain the other rules." Discord cackled. "Rules, rules, and rules!" Pinkie Pie threw her pink hooves up into the air. "This is driving me CRAZY!!!" "Pinkie Pie, you are crazy," Discord grinned. "Will you just go on, Lord of Chaos?" Rainbow Dash sighed. "Yeah, Trixie for once agreed with Rainbow Dash," Trixie argued. "For once?!" Scootaloo protested," She's awesome!!" "And I'm hyper!" Pinkie leaped up into the air like a rubber ball. "Will you ponies let me continue please?" Discord adjusted his glasses, showing stern, firm eyes. The mares-and a filly gazed at each other, nodded quietly. "Good," the draconequus replied in a voice that Trixie soon began to fear. A shiver ran up the blue unicorn's spine. "Oh gosh, what has Trixie gotten herself into?" She thought. "One. Room. At. A. Time." Discord declared,"And no peeking with your magical powers, flying abilities, or Equestrian earth pony surprises, or one pony per door! That is against the rules. If you did do that, your SOUL WILL BE MINE!! MWAHAHAHHAH!" "Um is that true?" Trixie inquired. "The cord lies, yes, but the Discord don't." The creature swirled around, causing some of the mares to shuffle uncomfortably. "You're not even like Applejack!" Scootaloo yelled. "How much dare you have," Discord looked down at her with sly eyes."Well, tell you what. These rooms are scary. And every part of me is going to see you pass that door and open a new one. And hint: Stay alive. Just do so. These are my last piece of instructions, my dears. Ta-Ta!" Then he vanished, in a bright sparkling brownish light. "Stay alive," Pinkie Pie mused," Hmm, I can do that!" "Yeah, but what weird stuff are in those rooms?" Rainbow demanded. "Well, we ain't going down!" Scootaloo snarled, brave for the first time she entered the Chaos Castle. The three female ponies put their hooves together. "Friendship accomplishes all!" "I'm right here, you know," Trixie said, feeling outcasted. "Well, you in?" Pinkie asked, a smile tugging on her face," Four heads are better than three, you know." "And with your magical abilities, you can help us," Scootaloo added," Maybe I'll give you a new chance about that fiasco at Ponyville." Rainbow Dash rolled her violet filly eyes. "Fine Trixie. Just don't make things worse.Well, you're forgiven for upsetting Twilight. Hey, maybe having you around isn't such a bad idea, isn't it?" The pegasus brightened. "You the most great and powerful here!" Raising out her sky blue hoof, she asked," So? You in?" Trixie smiled. It wasn't an evil, scheming smile like she usually had, but it was a nice smile. A happy, accepting smile. "I'm in." She stuck her blue hoof into the hooves of her new friends. Suddenly they heard a weird creaking sound. What? "There!" Scootaloo shrieked. In front of them. It was the something that they dreaded. Uh-oh. The ponies watched as a magenta door decorated with rainbow-colored hot air balloons opened by itself like magic and gestured them to walk in, into that pitchy darkness beyond that magenta door. Mount Wingless Mount Wingless "I have a really, really bad feeling about this," whispered Pinkie Pie, as her poofy tail shook violently. Her Pinkie sense had sensed something wrong, and it was very accurate, no matter how safe it looks! She looked around at the darkness, shivering and shaking at the same time. "Yeah! But I doubt if there's anything here in this nothingness!" Rainbow pointed out. "Something could crash from the air! Like a chicken !" Pinkie whispered back, fiercely," Especially the ones that are orange, purple, flyless and cute! " She giggled. "Yeah! Wait...." Scootaloo's smile twisted into something that looks doubtful and shocked. "Orange and purple! Fly less! HEY!! I'm not a chicken, Pinkie Pie!" Pinkie laughed, bouncing happily as though this wasn't really very serious. All of a sudden, something caught Trixie's eye. "Huh?" She gazed down, and her eyes sparkled, knowing at once that it would be an important clue. With no hesitation, she stood up on her hind legs, ready to show off her new discovery. "Well, everypony, Trixie thinks she found something!" Trixie yelled, her blue hoof holding a piece of paper. "WHAT??!!" The ponies dashed forward, almost knocking Trixie down. "WHAT IS IT? THE SPELL??!!" "This," Trixie said proudly, glad at all the attention, as her pink aura ignited the little ripped paper. "The spell! Written on this tiny piece of paper! TADA! Trixie has once again saved the day!" But there was no applause or delighted yells of thanks, there was only silence, as the mares stared and stared at the little note, trying to understand what it really is. After a long moment, Rainbow threw up her sky blue colored filly hooves and shouted out," Trixie, there's nothing special about it! It's just a piece of paper!" Trixie was about to protest back in anger but was interrupted by Scootaloo. "Look! There's something on the edge of this paper! There on the very left end of the small edge, see!!" Her head nudged at a barely-seen leaf, which was-what? bronze with a hint of golden. "She's right!" Pinkie gasped. "Omifilly, what if this is one of the pieces of the cure's pages!!" "Was there ever any doubt?" Trixie murmured, fluffing her silver mane." Told you the Great and Powerful Trixie never misjudged!" "Well, take that along, then, it's gonna be a help then!" Rainbow stated firmly. "Trixie, can you make a bag out of magic and put it inside?" "Sure." Trixie said gruffly, levitating the piece into a star-shaped purse she managed to create with her magic. "Well, we're done with this room, right? We found the paper and now it's time to move on!!" Scootaloo declared. "DISCORD BUDDY TAKE US TO THE NEXT ROOM! O GREAT AND POWERFUL LORD OF CHAOS!!" Pinkie hollered. There was no answer. But instead, a rainbow-colored light flashed, leaving behind a path of colorful sprinkles. "Hey! I think we're onto something!" Trixie cried, galloping toward the light, enthusiastic to leave this empty and dark room, as the others followed her. But no, there was no door waiting for them. There was an unusual mountain, with cotton-candy snow and soft rocks, with a door, awaiting them on the very top. Rainbow groaned. "Why does it have to be cotton-candy mountains for Celestia's sake!!" "Mount Wingless," read Trixie," Trek all the way up this mountain and you'll reach the door. Discord, your loving Lord of Chaos and Mayor of Mayhem. P.S. Be careful of treeks." The unicorn scrunched her nose. "Treeks? Now what is that supposed to mean? And Mount Wingless? That's a pretty weird name, unless-!" "The pegasi who came here would all be wingless!!" Pinkie Pie screeched. "Wh-what?!" Rainbow gasped," No. I don't wanna lose my wings. I can't. I-I couldn't do that, can I ?" She gave a nervous laugh. Scootaloo gulped. "Um-well," she stuttered. Despite of the wings business, the mare tried to act brave. "Well, that could be a lie, couldn't it??!! Let's all go upward!" She gave a smile, even though she was terrified inside, but still, she was determined to act brave in front of her idol, Rainbow Dash. So up they trotted, not sensing a shadow with red pupils watching them, and with the sound of a flick from his claw, the pegasi's wings disappeared, as the ponies started to trek up the high mountain. It didn't took Rainbow too long to realize. She was the first one up, being the tomboy, and the first one to see a gap between two paths. Eager to cross it, she lifted up her wings... Wait. Where are her wings? Rainbow moaned, sweat starting to form on her brow. "What's happened to my wings?" She stared down, seeing herself as an...earth pony!!! "MY WINGS!!!" "Oh, so it is true pegasi are wingless here on Mount Wingless," muttered Trixie. "Yeah! And Scootaloo is too," Pinkie Pie said softly, leaning close to Trixie. "I heard it," Scootaloo answered sharply. "Now how are we gonna cross this bridge without MY help and MY wings?" Rainbow sobbed. "Well, dude, first of all, you're a filly, can you carry mares? Silly Rainbow! "Pinkie Pie giggled ." And we just need a hop, skip, and jump! Remember? Or do I have to sing the song again?" "NO!!" The mares cried at the same time. "Okie dokie lokie then!!" Pinkie Pie, being the best jumper of the group went first, leaping over the gap with ease. "Now it's your turn!!!" She said, turning to the others, smiling widely. "Fine!" Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes, retreated three steps and jumped, falling into Pinkie's hooves, which were there before, ready to catch the filly. "Good job, ya silly filly!!" "Ugh." Scootaloo's leap wasn't exactly perfect though. She almost fell into the canyon below, if it wasn't for Rainbow Dash, her big/little sister holding one of her hooves tightly. "Got ya, little sis!" Rainbow gave a bold grin. "Th-th-thanks,, Rainbow Dash." Scootaloo stuttered, blushing. With a heave and a grunt (and Pinkie's help) the orange mare was hoisted up, safe and sound. "TRIXIE IT'S YOUR TURN!!" Pinkie Pie called. "Um ok." Trixie gulped, perspiration slowly dripping down her forehead. "Uh-oh." She took a deep breath. "Don't look down, Trixie." But her curiosity got the better of her. She can't stand but glance... and was overwhelmed by nausea, finding herself down, down, and down. "AHHHHHHH!!!" "TRIXIE!!!" "AHHHHHHH!!" "Grab that branch, Trixie!" Scootaloo instructed. With no disagreement, Trixie hold out around a tough tree branch, squeezing her eyes shut, but was soon overcame by the memory. There was this time her daddy and her went to a fair in town. It was a very bustling, exciting scene. "What are we gonna do first, Dwaddy??" Trixie asked excitedly. "Well, why not the Ferris wheel, my dear!!" Her father suggested. "Sure!" Trixie's eyes sparkled. As she and her father went up, up, up, Trixie was astounded by how small the ponies and houses look. "This is so cool!!" She cried, pressing her nose and hooves on the glass, leaving it with a dirty smudge. But, all of a sudden, the wheel stopped. Literally stopped. When Trixie's carriage was just, luckily, at the high point. At first, the filly was super excited, and thought it was part of the ride, but it turned out that it was actually something wrong with the machinery. That's when the frowning started. "Daddy, what are we gonna do? Do we have to climb down on our hooves?" Trixie shrieked, wincing at the scary image. "I-I don't know, darling. I think we should just stay here." The stallion replied, firmly. Trixie grew afraid. Afraid of the height and small stuff below. She gulped. This is not going well. She was starting to feel an aching pain inside her head. Oh no. No! Trixie cupped her hooves over her ears and screamed. "HEEEEELLLLLLPPPPPPP!!!" She was still screaming as she hold on to the branch, feeling her hooves becoming more slippery every second. "Why should I have my fear of heights now!" She cried, trying to bury her head in the tangled mass of silver mane. Just then, "HANG ON, TRIXIE!!" WE'RE COMING FOR YA!!!" Rainbow's raspy voice raised over the mess Trixie is in. "Huh?" "JUST FOLLOW MY INSTRUCTIONS! As my, being "Pinkie Pie"!" The hyper earth pony shouted. Trixie barely nodded, clenching at the branch tightly. "First of all, slowly take your hooves away from the branch. Secondly, close your eyes. Finally, you'll be rescued!!" Pinkie commanded. "Are you telling me to...let go??!!" Trixie couldn't believe her ears. "Yeah! Like let it go, let it go!! " Pinkie sang. "Pinkie this is no time for puns!" Scootaloo urged. "okay, Trixie, let go," ordered Rainbow. "I-I can't," Trixie choked out," do this." But this could be the only way! She should trust her new friends. Slowly, slowly, her hooves slipped, and she fell into air, preparing for the worst. SPLAT!! Trixie opened her lilac eyes. Huh? She was sitting on something soft. A cloud? Was she in heaven? No wait, this cloud is pink. And it's sticky. Cotton candy?? Petrified, Trixie looked around, discovering herself on a cotton candy snow mound on a jutted-out cliff just below the branch. "See Trixie! Told ya." Rainbow smirked. "Yeah! And this cotton candy is super delicious!" Pinkie Pie said, her mouth full," OOH. And this even has bounciness! Try bouncing on that cotton snow up here! It's gonna be sooo FUN!!" Trixie smiled. She was feeling real joy. In a minute or less, Trixie was back with her new friends. "Hey, I never knew cotton candy could be a trampoline," she remarked. "Yeah, and that reminds me," Scootaloo interrupted," CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS COTTON CANDY TRAMPOLINE JUMPERS!!!" She burst into a fit of giggles, causing the others to laugh along. "Well," Trixie brushed her hooves," Why don't we go into the next room? The door is there." She pointed to a rock near the mares-( and a filly). "YEP!!" Rainbow shouted enthusiastically, "Bring it on, Dipcord!! We friends will survive no matter what!!!" As if to respond her, the golden door with streaks of black opened all by itself. "Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh!" Pinkie cried nervously, teeth chattering her hooves, resulting in some pink fur falling off. "Calm down," Rainbow breathed. Slowly, slowly, the ponies walked inside. As usual, it was a pitch black darkness. The door slammed behind them. Then, as if by magic, the lights flickered on, one by one.... only to reveal.... "NOOOOOOOOOO!!!" Scootaloo shrieked. "What's wrong, Scoots!" Rainbow yelled. "I'm here to help you!!" "Th-there," Scootaloo stammered, raising her orange hoof at a nearby pole. And on the pole, there was Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle, tied tightly there, struggling and yelling in pain, their bodies limping, faces desperate, begging at Scootaloo to save them....
Three Mares, A Filly, and A Draconequus "The Great and Powerful Trixie..." Trixie uttered, then squinted, as if forgetting her lines, which is the literal truth,"AHA! The Great and Powerful Trixie needs some blueberry cupcakes." She gazed out of the magic show caravan's window and sighed unhappily. Few days ago, Twilight Sparkle and her dumb friends have ruined the opportunity to be the star of Ponyville. "Ugh, the Great and Powerful Trixie does not care about such 'trivial'," She wrinkled her nose. Actually, she cared a lot about it and it was very annoying important news for her! "Matters," Trixie completed her sentence, sniffing," All Trixie needs now is some blueberry cupcakes. Oh look, Trixie's nearing...Ponyville!" Her eyes widened in horror. "No, no, nonononono, Trixie will not come here. Trixie's just looking for blueberry cupcakes!" She moaned as she levitated the automatic lever controlling the movement of the wagon. "Ugh. I just need some blueberry cupcakes!" "Did you say blueberry cupcakes?!" a way too familiar, talkative, delighted voice shrieked, "I'VE GOT THESE!!! Oh hi Trixie meanie pants! Want some?!" Pinkie Pie's delighted head poked out of a nearby pastry shop: Sugarcube The Next Corner! "Not Pinkie Pie!" Trixie was petrified with exasperation, "Oh hi pink pony. How much--," she gritted her teeth," Is it for a cupcake? And, what are you here for?" "It's hmm-how much is it for??" Pinkie twitched her eyebrows," But, silly, I know how to answer the next question. I'm here to sell cupcakes!! Sorry, I still don't know the price, though." "PINKIE! READ THE PRICE ON THE ORDER LIST!" A mare's raspy voice shrieked. "Oh. Yeah. Umm exactly money sign one period five zero!" Trixie rolled her lilac eyes. This clearly was wasting her time. "Trixie does not understand," she replied, scoffing. "PINKIE! You can't even explain correctly to a customer, here, let me!" A rainbow-maned blue pegasus pushed the pink earth pony and then gasped. "What?" Trixie asked, "Rainbow Dash???!!!" "TRIXIE?!!!" Rainbow Dash clearly sounds more irritated than angry. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!" "Well, clearly I am here to help Pinkie Pie bake cupcakes," Rainbow Dash said," I thought you were never gonna step into Ponyville with not even one hoof!" "Trixie wasn't stepping into that town one little bit. I was just here to buy some pastries because I'm hungry." The unicorn facehoofed. It was so evident! "Oh," Rainbow Dash relaxed. Then her face tightened. "Wait...are you...lying? Everyone knows the Great and Powerful Trixie is famous for lying sometime. And don't you dare get into another magic duel with Twilight. You caused enough trouble already!" "Well, Trixie's planning to, anyway. If you don't hurry up and give her Trixie's blueberry cupcakes." Trixie answered sharply. "Fine, fine," the pegasus rolled her violet eyes, " The price is $1.50. And would you please stop speaking in the third person? Here you go. Money?" "Oh." Trixie gave a slight grin. She levitated her hat from her head and searched through it. Then she opened her cape. Stars. Only stars. And purple. Where's the money? She had brought the money. "Wait." Trixie turned to her caravan and started to search through the junk piled there. "Ugh, what a crisis," Rainbow Dash groaned, barely moaning. Trixie, however, was really in crisis. The Great and Powerful Trixie always hid her bills under her pillow. But it was gone. GONE!!! "I'VE BEEN ROBBED!!!" Trixie wailed, giving a stretch, her looks worried, and a meek smile on her face. "Then I suppose these are not for you," Rainbow replied as she put the bag with the cupcakes on the floor. "But Trixie's really been robbed. If you don't believe me, come see!" Trixie lead a skeptic Rainbow Dash to her caravan and levitated the pillow away from the bed. "WHAT??? " "Liar," Rainbow said sarcastically," you just wanna waste my precious time! " "It's the truth!" Trixie hurriedly grabbed the bag with her cupcakes, and crossly kicked over some money and was just about to go when she was stopped by a dog's paw. "DISCORD?!" exclaimed the mares ( even Pinkie Pie, who had trotted out the kitchen door ). "Surprise, ponies?" Discord asked in a trolling voice. "Trixie knew it! Only Discord could've hidden it somewhere else!" Trixie cried, triumphant, stamping her hoof on the ground. "What?!" Discord gazed at the furious unicorn innocently," You looked at the other end of the bed." "Fine, smarty smarty draconequus." "I AM smart." "Whatever! Discord! The Great and Powerful Trixie wants you to stop this this very INSTANT!!" Trixie hollered furiously at the chuckling draconequus, who was looking at her with sly red pupils. "For once, I have to agree with Trixie," Rainbow Dash added, tiredly, " Clear out, Dipcord." "It's Discord, though, not Dipcord," replied Discord, as he pat Rainbow Dash's rainbow mane,"Mind you, Rainbow Crash." "Ugh," the pegasus facehoofed in disgust. "Ya know, this is getting awkward," Pinkie Pie said, her blue eyes looking around nervously," And with a little filly around too." "Puh-leeze-there is no little filly around," Trixie replied haughtily. "Hey, aren't you the unicorn who upsetted RD?" A filly's tough voice cut in," Trixie, am I right?" Scootaloo smiled at Rainbow, who gave her a tight one in return. "Hi Scoots." Pinkie Pie gasped. "Rainbow, that's no way to greet a friend! You're supposed to say: HIYA SCOOTS!" She giggled," Well, anyway, here to buy some cupcakes??" "Yeah sure," Scootaloo blushed. "Scootaloo, you aren't blushing because of MEEEE, aren't you?!" Pinkie Pie inquired. "Not exactly. You see, I followed Rainbow Dash here." Scootaloo said. Trixie groaned. "This is ridiculous. The Great and Powerful Trixie cannot stand this. I'm leaving. Really, this is g-" Her mouth was clapped over by a pink hoof. "Shh, but it's romantic!" Pinkie whispered. Discord stifled a laugh. "Ugh," Trixie facehoofed, "Just give Trixie her blueberry cakes, okay?" Rainbow Dash cursed. She lifted the bag and kicked it over to the unicorn. "WOW!" Scootaloo cheered and squealed," Now that's called a soccer bag goal!" Rainbow grinned. "One day, little sis, you'll be as awesome as me," She spread open her strong, fast wings out for Scootaloo to adore, taking in all the little filly's admiration, "You'll soon learn everything. Of course. From me. Flying, how to tackle bad guys, how to do a sonic Scootaloo-boom." She winked at Scootaloo's delighted face. "And teach me how to kick bags to tackle unicorns?" Scootaloo asked, pointing her hoof at Trixie, who was sprawled out on the ground, with Pinkie having a mock-shocked face and Discord laughing , unable to stop. Rainbow's mouth fell open at the damage she had caused with the kick. "Huh?" Trixie slowly opened her lilac eyes," OW, what?! Ouch." "Somepony gave you black eyeliner," Discord snapped his claw and a mirror appeared. He pawed it over to Trixie, who grudgingly picked it up, ready to see her own beautiful face, no matter how dazed she was. Trixie gasped. "No." A black eye. A cut on her face. Trixie remembered. "RAINBOW DASH! Trixie's gonna have her revenge!" She cried as she rubbed her bruised eye and feel the lightning-shape injury on her cheek. When the pegasus had kicked the bag here, Trixie was unsuspecting and smash! Right on the eye. The sharp ends had scratched down on her blue fur, leaving a cut. With that, she stormed angrily to get Rainbow Dash. But before she can do it, for the third time, she was stopped by a eagle's claw. "Revenge," smirked Discord," I have completely forgotten the chaos, sweetness, and taste this word had."
Discord's Back...in A Chaotic Way Discord's Back...in A Chaotic Way "Now look what you've done, Trixie!" Rainbow Dash growled as she shot the astonished unicorn a scowl of pure anger. "What did Trixie do?" Trixie asked, shocked. Rainbow pointed her head toward Discord, her rainbow mane nodding. Trixie looked. Scootaloo looked. RD facehoofed. Pinkie Pie gasped. It was a scene that had happened years ago, but why? "Chaos," Discord said the word slowly," Revenge." His words were slow and unsteady, as if he had just learned them, like a foal in the school. His face broke into a wide, evil grin, and his red eyes glinting, insane. "No," uttered Scootaloo," No." Trixie bit her lip. Wh-wh-what had exactly happened...? Why was Discord like that? Wait, she was the one who had done it! She renewed Discord, in a bad way! She gulped. Uh-oh. She was in trouble. No wait, big trouble. Very big trouble. Scared, Trixie's regretful lilac eyes raised up the maniacal Discord. Lightning was flashing. BOOM. Thunder. Chaos. "Discord is back now, you see," the draconequus chuckled evilly, "Well, I am always here, but I'm back in a chaotic way." "So whaddya gonna do? Set up some chaos?" Rainbow Dash demanded boldly, as Scootaloo hid under her wing, frightened. "Of course, my dear Rainbow Dash," Discord answered, laughing sarcastically. "Well Discord what kind?" Pinkie Pie piped up, eagerly," Are you fooling on us? Turn yourself back to your old self, dude! Huh, your dear Rainbow Dash? You love her? Let's call for a date party! Ooh-ooh, I know why you're acting like this. You wanna show us your excellent drama skills. Are you acting The Return of Harmony the musical? You've got such chaotic acting skills, Discord! You're gonna be a hit in the show faster than I can say,' Pinkie Pie picked a peck of pickled peppers!" "Pinkie Pie, Pinkie Pie," smirked Discord," Can't you see that talking has its limits?! " He snapped his claw and a zipper appeared at the edge of the pink mare's mouth. Zipping it, Pinkie protested. "Mmm-bfff!" Pinkie tried to say. "Oh of course you want your BFF Dashie here to have the Zipper trick too? Not bad, Pinkie." Discord smiled slyly. "Oh no, Dipcord," the pegasus mare bucked up her back hooves, defiantly. "And you're not trying to hurt me either!" Trixie added, glaring at the spirit of chaos. Discord stopped. "You're the source, dearie, why would I dream of doing so...?" "Yeah, you caused this mess, The Lame and Powerless Trixie," Rainbow yelled," Alright, punk, it's all YOUR FAULT!" "Me?" "DUH!" Rainbow Dash shot back," If it weren't for you, you wouldn't get chaos back!" Suddenly, her mouth was suddenly zipped up by Discord. "Ugh," she moaned. "Well, at least Trixie isn't harmed," Trixie said , fluffing her silver mane. "Gosh darn you, Trixie Lulamoon!" Scootaloo blurted out," Pinkie, Rainbow you okay?" The two mares nodded their heads reluctantly. "Trixie the Great & Powerful will not be darned!" The unicorn cried as her horn engulfed in a shiny pink aura. She shot some magic at Scootaloo, Rainbow, and Pinkie, only to unzip the zippered mouths of them. "Hey! I mastered that spell!" complained Discord. "Yeah yeah right." Rainbow Dash glared," Trixie, just...ugh!!!" Trixie raised her eyebrows. She looked at Discord enviously. "What is it, Trixie Lulamoon?" "I brought you back to chaos. You give me a wish." The unicorn's face lighted up, a creepy yet wicked smile forming at the base of her lips. "So, Miss Trixie Lulamoon, what is this wish of yours?" Discord asked,"Your wish is my command. Well not exactly. But choose one wish, dearie, a wise, chaotic one. For now I am the Genie!!! MWAHAHAHHA!" Trixie scowled. "Oh. Well, I want Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo to get out of my way!" "WHAT?" The 'sisters' looked at each other. "Your wish will be granted." Flicking his claw, Discord smiled. He knew exactly how to. "Wait! How about me! Why isn't Pinkie Pie featured in this wish! Party planners are the best of the best that should be in every single thing possible. And for the bestest party pony, Pinkie Pie here, why not her?" Pinkie Pie yelled. But no, Rainbow and Scootaloo were changed only. "Omipony!" Pinkie whispered loudly. "This wasn't what I was asking for!" Trixie gaped at the two pegasi. "Sorry, wish granted." Discord shrugged, clearly showing false innocence beyond his chaotic draconequus heart. That was what took the two pegasi to realize. "AHHHHHHHHH!" Rainbow had became a filly. And Scootaloo now is a full grown mare. "This is awkward," Scootaloo looked , embarrassed, at her blank flank and her wings. "A filly again?" RD gasped," This is awesome!" Pinkie stifled a laugh. Rainbow flew up to the air, whooping, only stopped to see the wistful face of Scootaloo. "Oh Scoots," Rainbow said softly as she got down. "It's okay. The spell will be reversed." "Okay. B-b-but could it?" Scootaloo sniffed. "Ask Discord!" Pinkie Pie yelped. "Ugh, now they're more troublemakers.." Trixie gritted her teeth at Discord, fiercely giving him a hard and unpleasant glare," DISCORD!!" "What? You want the curse reversed?" Discord asked evilly," Then go into the Chaos Castle of mine and search through every room to find the spell-book. Only three days . Or Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo will be like this forever. A curse! Now come along, you dumb ponies. Yes, even you, Pinkie Pie and Trixie. These two will accompany the cursed." There was insane laughter as the three mares and one filly found themselves in a large dark room. "Wh-where are we?" Trixie uttered out loud. "The Chaos Castle." Discord's face appeared on the ground. "AHHHH!" Trixie screamed, slipping, then falling on the floor, slamming into the other ponies as maniacal chaotic laughter filled the dark, dark, room.
Rules and Chaos Rules and Chaos "Trixie! You need a diet!" Pinkie Pie squealed as she wriggled out of the pony pile. "Mff! Ouchie! Rainbow, why you have so hard bones even as a filly?" "Ugh, Pinkie," Rainbow face hoofed," This is no time for puns! We need to get Scoots back to a filly and me to a mare!" "I agree." A hollow voice laughed. "Ah!" Trixie fell, shocked and astonished by the second sudden appearance of the chaotic draconequus's face appearing on the Crystal ground," Discord, could you stop scaring The Great and Powerful Trixie?" She demanded, coldly, at the chuckling chaotic creature. "Hilarious, Trixie Lulamoon!" Discord burst out laughing as Scootaloo stared with sad eyes, already disappointed at the lack of a cutie mark and flying as a full-grown mare. "Listen you!" Rainbow flew out of nowhere, growling at Discord's crystal face, as she tried to pin it down with her hooves," Carefully, you troll. Be sure you keep our promises and remember to change us back, Dipcord!" "Fine, fine," Discord waves his paw absentmindedly," But whenever could you get my name correct? It's Discord, not Dipcord. That sounds like some sort of XO sauce or something like that." "WILL YOU GUYS SHUT UP!!" Trixie hollered, her horn engulfing in a pink aura," STOP THIS NOW!! I can't stay here all day! The Appleloosa ponies really need my show! Unicorns are extraordinary there!" This burst of rage caused silence with a stunned Rainbow , a mocking Discord, an afraid Scootaloo, and a gaping Pinkie, who right away, began to talk. "You're not making any pony smile, Trixie!" She brightened. "Y-yeah, Pinkie's right," Scootaloo managed a tight smile. Trixie growled, annoyed, clearly knowing she was defeated. "Okay okay Trixie will stop. But Discord, you're supposed to explain rules or something, right?" "Well, good thing her brain is in the right place," mumbled Rainbow Dash. The mares and filly watched as Discord pulled a lecturing board, put on some glasses, and transformed himself to a teacher-like Discord. "Since I explained the rules of only three days and searching through every room to find the spell-book or else these ponies won't change back into their normal horsy selves, I'm going to explain the other rules." Discord cackled. "Rules, rules, and rules!" Pinkie Pie threw her pink hooves up into the air. "This is driving me CRAZY!!!" "Pinkie Pie, you are crazy," Discord grinned. "Will you just go on, Lord of Chaos?" Rainbow Dash sighed. "Yeah, Trixie for once agreed with Rainbow Dash," Trixie argued. "For once?!" Scootaloo protested," She's awesome!!" "And I'm hyper!" Pinkie leaped up into the air like a rubber ball. "Will you ponies let me continue please?" Discord adjusted his glasses, showing stern, firm eyes. The mares-and a filly gazed at each other, nodded quietly. "Good," the draconequus replied in a voice that Trixie soon began to fear. A shiver ran up the blue unicorn's spine. "Oh gosh, what has Trixie gotten herself into?" She thought. "One. Room. At. A. Time." Discord declared,"And no peeking with your magical powers, flying abilities, or Equestrian earth pony surprises, or one pony per door! That is against the rules. If you did do that, your SOUL WILL BE MINE!! MWAHAHAHHAH!" "Um is that true?" Trixie inquired. "The cord lies, yes, but the Discord don't." The creature swirled around, causing some of the mares to shuffle uncomfortably. "You're not even like Applejack!" Scootaloo yelled. "How much dare you have," Discord looked down at her with sly eyes."Well, tell you what. These rooms are scary. And every part of me is going to see you pass that door and open a new one. And hint: Stay alive. Just do so. These are my last piece of instructions, my dears. Ta-Ta!" Then he vanished, in a bright sparkling brownish light. "Stay alive," Pinkie Pie mused," Hmm, I can do that!" "Yeah, but what weird stuff are in those rooms?" Rainbow demanded. "Well, we ain't going down!" Scootaloo snarled, brave for the first time she entered the Chaos Castle. The three female ponies put their hooves together. "Friendship accomplishes all!" "I'm right here, you know," Trixie said, feeling outcasted. "Well, you in?" Pinkie asked, a smile tugging on her face," Four heads are better than three, you know." "And with your magical abilities, you can help us," Scootaloo added," Maybe I'll give you a new chance about that fiasco at Ponyville." Rainbow Dash rolled her violet filly eyes. "Fine Trixie. Just don't make things worse.Well, you're forgiven for upsetting Twilight. Hey, maybe having you around isn't such a bad idea, isn't it?" The pegasus brightened. "You the most great and powerful here!" Raising out her sky blue hoof, she asked," So? You in?" Trixie smiled. It wasn't an evil, scheming smile like she usually had, but it was a nice smile. A happy, accepting smile. "I'm in." She stuck her blue hoof into the hooves of her new friends. Suddenly they heard a weird creaking sound. What? "There!" Scootaloo shrieked. In front of them. It was the something that they dreaded. Uh-oh. The ponies watched as a magenta door decorated with rainbow-colored hot air balloons opened by itself like magic and gestured them to walk in, into that pitchy darkness beyond that magenta door.
Mount Wingless Mount Wingless "I have a really, really bad feeling about this," whispered Pinkie Pie, as her poofy tail shook violently. Her Pinkie sense had sensed something wrong, and it was very accurate, no matter how safe it looks! She looked around at the darkness, shivering and shaking at the same time. "Yeah! But I doubt if there's anything here in this nothingness!" Rainbow pointed out. "Something could crash from the air! Like a chicken !" Pinkie whispered back, fiercely," Especially the ones that are orange, purple, flyless and cute! " She giggled. "Yeah! Wait...." Scootaloo's smile twisted into something that looks doubtful and shocked. "Orange and purple! Fly less! HEY!! I'm not a chicken, Pinkie Pie!" Pinkie laughed, bouncing happily as though this wasn't really very serious. All of a sudden, something caught Trixie's eye. "Huh?" She gazed down, and her eyes sparkled, knowing at once that it would be an important clue. With no hesitation, she stood up on her hind legs, ready to show off her new discovery. "Well, everypony, Trixie thinks she found something!" Trixie yelled, her blue hoof holding a piece of paper. "WHAT??!!" The ponies dashed forward, almost knocking Trixie down. "WHAT IS IT? THE SPELL??!!" "This," Trixie said proudly, glad at all the attention, as her pink aura ignited the little ripped paper. "The spell! Written on this tiny piece of paper! TADA! Trixie has once again saved the day!" But there was no applause or delighted yells of thanks, there was only silence, as the mares stared and stared at the little note, trying to understand what it really is. After a long moment, Rainbow threw up her sky blue colored filly hooves and shouted out," Trixie, there's nothing special about it! It's just a piece of paper!" Trixie was about to protest back in anger but was interrupted by Scootaloo. "Look! There's something on the edge of this paper! There on the very left end of the small edge, see!!" Her head nudged at a barely-seen leaf, which was-what? bronze with a hint of golden. "She's right!" Pinkie gasped. "Omifilly, what if this is one of the pieces of the cure's pages!!" "Was there ever any doubt?" Trixie murmured, fluffing her silver mane." Told you the Great and Powerful Trixie never misjudged!" "Well, take that along, then, it's gonna be a help then!" Rainbow stated firmly. "Trixie, can you make a bag out of magic and put it inside?" "Sure." Trixie said gruffly, levitating the piece into a star-shaped purse she managed to create with her magic. "Well, we're done with this room, right? We found the paper and now it's time to move on!!" Scootaloo declared. "DISCORD BUDDY TAKE US TO THE NEXT ROOM! O GREAT AND POWERFUL LORD OF CHAOS!!" Pinkie hollered. There was no answer. But instead, a rainbow-colored light flashed, leaving behind a path of colorful sprinkles. "Hey! I think we're onto something!" Trixie cried, galloping toward the light, enthusiastic to leave this empty and dark room, as the others followed her. But no, there was no door waiting for them. There was an unusual mountain, with cotton-candy snow and soft rocks, with a door, awaiting them on the very top. Rainbow groaned. "Why does it have to be cotton-candy mountains for Celestia's sake!!" "Mount Wingless," read Trixie," Trek all the way up this mountain and you'll reach the door. Discord, your loving Lord of Chaos and Mayor of Mayhem. P.S. Be careful of treeks." The unicorn scrunched her nose. "Treeks? Now what is that supposed to mean? And Mount Wingless? That's a pretty weird name, unless-!" "The pegasi who came here would all be wingless!!" Pinkie Pie screeched. "Wh-what?!" Rainbow gasped," No. I don't wanna lose my wings. I can't. I-I couldn't do that, can I ?" She gave a nervous laugh. Scootaloo gulped. "Um-well," she stuttered. Despite of the wings business, the mare tried to act brave. "Well, that could be a lie, couldn't it??!! Let's all go upward!" She gave a smile, even though she was terrified inside, but still, she was determined to act brave in front of her idol, Rainbow Dash. So up they trotted, not sensing a shadow with red pupils watching them, and with the sound of a flick from his claw, the pegasi's wings disappeared, as the ponies started to trek up the high mountain. It didn't took Rainbow too long to realize. She was the first one up, being the tomboy, and the first one to see a gap between two paths. Eager to cross it, she lifted up her wings... Wait. Where are her wings? Rainbow moaned, sweat starting to form on her brow. "What's happened to my wings?" She stared down, seeing herself as an...earth pony!!! "MY WINGS!!!" "Oh, so it is true pegasi are wingless here on Mount Wingless," muttered Trixie. "Yeah! And Scootaloo is too," Pinkie Pie said softly, leaning close to Trixie. "I heard it," Scootaloo answered sharply. "Now how are we gonna cross this bridge without MY help and MY wings?" Rainbow sobbed. "Well, dude, first of all, you're a filly, can you carry mares? Silly Rainbow! "Pinkie Pie giggled ." And we just need a hop, skip, and jump! Remember? Or do I have to sing the song again?" "NO!!" The mares cried at the same time. "Okie dokie lokie then!!" Pinkie Pie, being the best jumper of the group went first, leaping over the gap with ease. "Now it's your turn!!!" She said, turning to the others, smiling widely. "Fine!" Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes, retreated three steps and jumped, falling into Pinkie's hooves, which were there before, ready to catch the filly. "Good job, ya silly filly!!" "Ugh." Scootaloo's leap wasn't exactly perfect though. She almost fell into the canyon below, if it wasn't for Rainbow Dash, her big/little sister holding one of her hooves tightly. "Got ya, little sis!" Rainbow gave a bold grin. "Th-th-thanks,, Rainbow Dash." Scootaloo stuttered, blushing. With a heave and a grunt (and Pinkie's help) the orange mare was hoisted up, safe and sound. "TRIXIE IT'S YOUR TURN!!" Pinkie Pie called. "Um ok." Trixie gulped, perspiration slowly dripping down her forehead. "Uh-oh." She took a deep breath. "Don't look down, Trixie." But her curiosity got the better of her. She can't stand but glance... and was overwhelmed by nausea, finding herself down, down, and down. "AHHHHHHH!!!" "TRIXIE!!!" "AHHHHHHH!!" "Grab that branch, Trixie!" Scootaloo instructed. With no disagreement, Trixie hold out around a tough tree branch, squeezing her eyes shut, but was soon overcame by the memory. There was this time her daddy and her went to a fair in town. It was a very bustling, exciting scene. "What are we gonna do first, Dwaddy??" Trixie asked excitedly. "Well, why not the Ferris wheel, my dear!!" Her father suggested. "Sure!" Trixie's eyes sparkled. As she and her father went up, up, up, Trixie was astounded by how small the ponies and houses look. "This is so cool!!" She cried, pressing her nose and hooves on the glass, leaving it with a dirty smudge. But, all of a sudden, the wheel stopped. Literally stopped. When Trixie's carriage was just, luckily, at the high point. At first, the filly was super excited, and thought it was part of the ride, but it turned out that it was actually something wrong with the machinery. That's when the frowning started. "Daddy, what are we gonna do? Do we have to climb down on our hooves?" Trixie shrieked, wincing at the scary image. "I-I don't know, darling. I think we should just stay here." The stallion replied, firmly. Trixie grew afraid. Afraid of the height and small stuff below. She gulped. This is not going well. She was starting to feel an aching pain inside her head. Oh no. No! Trixie cupped her hooves over her ears and screamed. "HEEEEELLLLLLPPPPPPP!!!" She was still screaming as she hold on to the branch, feeling her hooves becoming more slippery every second. "Why should I have my fear of heights now!" She cried, trying to bury her head in the tangled mass of silver mane. Just then, "HANG ON, TRIXIE!!" WE'RE COMING FOR YA!!!" Rainbow's raspy voice raised over the mess Trixie is in. "Huh?" "JUST FOLLOW MY INSTRUCTIONS! As my, being "Pinkie Pie"!" The hyper earth pony shouted. Trixie barely nodded, clenching at the branch tightly. "First of all, slowly take your hooves away from the branch. Secondly, close your eyes. Finally, you'll be rescued!!" Pinkie commanded. "Are you telling me to...let go??!!" Trixie couldn't believe her ears. "Yeah! Like let it go, let it go!! " Pinkie sang. "Pinkie this is no time for puns!" Scootaloo urged. "okay, Trixie, let go," ordered Rainbow. "I-I can't," Trixie choked out," do this." But this could be the only way! She should trust her new friends. Slowly, slowly, her hooves slipped, and she fell into air, preparing for the worst. SPLAT!! Trixie opened her lilac eyes. Huh? She was sitting on something soft. A cloud? Was she in heaven? No wait, this cloud is pink. And it's sticky. Cotton candy?? Petrified, Trixie looked around, discovering herself on a cotton candy snow mound on a jutted-out cliff just below the branch. "See Trixie! Told ya." Rainbow smirked. "Yeah! And this cotton candy is super delicious!" Pinkie Pie said, her mouth full," OOH. And this even has bounciness! Try bouncing on that cotton snow up here! It's gonna be sooo FUN!!" Trixie smiled. She was feeling real joy. In a minute or less, Trixie was back with her new friends. "Hey, I never knew cotton candy could be a trampoline," she remarked. "Yeah, and that reminds me," Scootaloo interrupted," CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS COTTON CANDY TRAMPOLINE JUMPERS!!!" She burst into a fit of giggles, causing the others to laugh along. "Well," Trixie brushed her hooves," Why don't we go into the next room? The door is there." She pointed to a rock near the mares-( and a filly). "YEP!!" Rainbow shouted enthusiastically, "Bring it on, Dipcord!! We friends will survive no matter what!!!" As if to respond her, the golden door with streaks of black opened all by itself. "Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh!" Pinkie cried nervously, teeth chattering her hooves, resulting in some pink fur falling off. "Calm down," Rainbow breathed. Slowly, slowly, the ponies walked inside. As usual, it was a pitch black darkness. The door slammed behind them. Then, as if by magic, the lights flickered on, one by one.... only to reveal.... "NOOOOOOOOOO!!!" Scootaloo shrieked. "What's wrong, Scoots!" Rainbow yelled. "I'm here to help you!!" "Th-there," Scootaloo stammered, raising her orange hoof at a nearby pole. And on the pole, there was Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle, tied tightly there, struggling and yelling in pain, their bodies limping, faces desperate, begging at Scootaloo to save them....
