Antagonist Stories I Decide to Write

Trixie sighed, rummaging through the cupboards of her wagon, looking for some food to eat. I really need to go shopping..., she thought to herself. Giving up, she flopped down onto her couch/bed, heaving a sigh. She closed her eyes, sighing again as her stomach rumbled. She was almost asleep when a sudden flash of white light made her jump.

She shielded her face with her hooves. "I'm sorry! Whatever it was, I'm pretty sure I paid for the damage! Don't take me to prison!", she shouted, her eyes still closed.

"Yeesh, I didn't realize you were that jumpy. My bad.", Discord sneered, giggling a bit at the flailing Trixie.

Trixie lowered her hooves, slowly turning her head and opening her eyes. She looked at Discord in confusion. "Do I know you?", she asked.

Discord shook his head. "But I know you.", he held out his paw. "Name's Discord. It's nice to finally meet you, Trixie."

Trixie tipped her head, looking at the draconequus, still slightly confused. She slowly stretched out her hoof, and shook hands with Discord. She let out a yelp when she felt a shock in her hoof. Discord burst out in laughter, looking to his lion paw, which had a prank buzzer attached to it. He looked at it, smiling. "Whoops, must have forgot about that little guy...", he remarked, and with a snap of his claw, the buzzer turned into a piece of candy. He tossed it to Trixie, who managed to catch it in her hooves.

Trixie looked at the candy, suspicious of it. "Thanks...."

Discord smiled. "No problem.

Starlight Glimmer was busy in the library of Twilight's castle, organizing books in their various shelves. Sighing, she placed a book in it's place with a hoof. I wish I could just use my magic. It would get done do much easier..., she grumbled in her head. Twilight had told her to organize the books manually, without magic, for a friendship lesson, or whatever. Starlight had to use a ladder to get up to where she was now, and a sudden white flash almost made her fall off of it. She turned, to see Discord looking up at her, cocking his head.

"Discord?", Starlight asked, surprised, "Is it that time of week already?"

Discord shook his head. "No, not quite yet. Don't tell Twilight, but I'll be here tomorrow. Make sure she puts plenty of goodies in her fridge.", he replied.

Starlight rolled her eyes, heaving a sigh. Discord normally came along at least once a week to the castle, to either bother Twilight, or raid her fridge. She never understood why he did that, but then again, he was Discord. Nopony knows why he does anything.

"So why are you here, then?"

Discord smiled his mischievous smile. "To help you, of course."

Starlight tipped her head. "Why?"

"Because I want to."

Starlight looked down at Discord, confused. "O-okay, then.."

Discord let out a giggle before he snapped his claw. With a flash of light, all the books in the library were reorganized.

Flim and Flam made their way down the long road, on their way to Appleloosa. There, they hoped to get some more ponies to buy some of their products. The cities they had been through last had all turned them down, and almost quite literally through them out. The two brothers were sweaty, because of the hot air, and the heavy load they were dragging behind them: their infamous sales wagon.

Flim looked over to his brother. "Brother, couldn't we have simply taken the train?"

Flam shook his head. "Sadly, brother, no. We can't take the wagon on a train."

"Yet they let somepony take a tree onto the train?"

Flam sighed. "Brother, that was a couple years ago. Rules have changed since then."

"Boy oh boy, you two look simply awful.", a new voice behind them remarked.

Flim and Flam simultaneously turned their heads. "Who's there?", they asked in unison.

Discord teleported in front of them, looked at them and their wagon. "Tsk, tsk, tsk. You two have no idea how to travel."

Flim narrowed his eyes. "I beg your pardon?"

"What I mean is, this cart looks terrible! And the weight! Your backs must be exhausted!", the draconequus remarked, circling the wagon, looking it over in disapproval.

Flim and Flam looked at Discord with narrowed eyes.

"I could solve your little dilemma, if you'd like..."

The brothers rolled their eyes, and for some reason, both nodded.

"Great!", Discord snapped his claw, and with a flash, the wagon had changed completely. The wheels were much taller, the luggage was neatly organized, and all the unnecessary weight had been discarded.

The brothers started to pull the cart again, surprised at finding it much lighter.

"Thank you!", they called to a waving Discord, who watched them walk away.

"....and that's the basis of what I did today.", Discord had finished.

Chrysalis looked at him, unconvinced. "You didn't prank them at all?"

Discord scoffed. "Of course I did! Trixie's candy was very spicy, the books I organized for Starlight were all misplaced, and the Flim Flam brothers' cart exploded just as they got into Appleloosa!"

Chrysalis sighed. "Why am I not surprised..?"
