Celestia was in her room, Twilight burst in crying. Celestia wrapped her wings around Twilight, Celestia looked at her with concern “What’s wrong Twilight?”

Twilight wailed “Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie and Tempest are gone!”

Celestia frowned as Luna burst in, Celestia sighed “Twilight calm down and tell what happened?”

Twilight looked up before she started to cry again “My teleportation machine failed an-and they’re gone.”

Celestia turned to her sister “Luna we need to do a dimensional location spell now!” Luna nodded without a word as she placed her horn on her sisters and then their magic intersected giving off a flash of light, Celestia nodded “Looks like we need to pay someone a visit” she then turned to Twilight “we found where your friends are.”

Twilight looked up with tears in her eyes “Where are they, are they safe?!”

Luna frowned “We don’t know but we want you to come and meet a friend, he can help us find them.”

Twilight gave them a determined look even as the tears dripped down her muzzle “I need to find my friends!”

Celestia smiled “Good, there’s no time like the present.”

Celestia pulled a book back and a long stairway opened in the floor, Celestia and Luna turned to her as they headed down “Come on follow us.”

Twilight nodded galloping after them, Twilight watched as magical lights were strapped to the pale white walls. She watched as the floor closed of Celestia’s room close behind them, Twilight frowned “Where are we going?”

Luna frowned “Starswirl’s mirror is simply one of many designed to hold the magical anomalies that created permanent gateways between our reality and others.”

Celestia sighed “We’d rather you don’t have to worry about this for several centuries but this is an emergency that involves you personally.”

Twilight watched as the long white staircase opened to a small crystal room with several mirrors strapped up to a machine, Twilight gasped “This is another mirror room?!”

Luna nodded “This is were the most dangerous dimensions are kept.”

Luna and Celestia turned to one mirror, Celestia tapped the machine activating one of the portals. Celestia grinned “Twilight I hope you remember what you learnt across the mirror portal because it will help you here?” Celestia hoped through the portal,

Luna sighed “Sister, really?”

Luna jumped through and then Twilight nodded as she jumped after them. Twilight looked around, she gasped at Luna she was six foot five standing on her hind legs, her fur was visible under her a dark blue combat dress were there weren’t armoured plates there were powerful protective runes, her wings sticking out of two slits with a dark blue greatsword strapped to the back her arms stretching out “It’s been a while since I’ve used these.”

Celestia smiled ‘”You always looked good in that.”

Twilight’s eyes widened as she saw her mentor about six foot seven her white fur sticking out through a bright orange dress very similar to Luna’s runes and all, her large white wings stuck out of the slits a massive halberd strapped to her back “You two look amazing!”

Celestia smiled “You do too.”

Twilight looked at herself, she was about six foot and wearing something similar to the other Princesses, she felt her wings sticking out of the combat dress. She then felt something heavy on her back, she pulled it off her back it was a large staff wooden staff, Luna smiled “I guess it realised you were a mage and gave you something that better matched your talents.”

A voice called out, she turned to see a man slightly shorter than Celestia at a height of six foot six “Celestia I haven’t seen you in over one hundred years.”

Celestia gave him a hug “It’s good to see you again Ozma.”

Ozma? smiled “Actually It’s Ozpin now, no-one calls me that anymore.”

Celestia laughed “I don’t turn up that often, you can’t blame for not knowing your name every knew body you take” she then grinned as she beckoned to Luna “Guess who’s back.”

Ozpin ran over to her with a smile “Luna it’s been one thousand years since I last saw you” he then took a deep breath and looked between the two Princesses“so what do I owe the visit?”

Twilight waved meekly as she held onto the staff tightly “Hi.”

Ozpin raised an eyebrow “Who is this?”

Celestia smiled “That’s Twilight Sparkle my former pupil and Equestria’s newest Princess” she then sighed “she was trying to create a teleporter that could send ponies to different cities, after a certain pegasus crashed into one of the machines the portal detribalised and sent a three ponies here, I was hoping you could find them.”

Ozpin smiled “I know the location of two but the third is unknown it will help if we find the third before the other two return.”

Before he could anything a twelve foot tall man with a brown furred body a lion’s claw and a griffon’s paw as well as a deer antler and a goat horn sticking out of his head as well as dragon and goat leg. He also had a Pegasus and Bat Wing on his back as well as a dragon-like snake tail, he was wearing a purple suit with dark green dress shirt underneath as well as pair of blue suit pants, a massive claymore hung from his back, he gave them a toothy grin “Hello everyone.”

Celestia sighed “Discord what are you doing here?”

Discord frowned “I am here to protect the Equestrians in this world, also we need to ask if they want to leave as well. They may not.”

Ozpin frowned “Who is this?”

Luna frowned “Discord here is a former enemy of ours, he has been reformed recently.”

Twilight blinked “What do you mean what if they don’t want to leave?”

Discord frowned “Dimensional travel is complicated, one of them could have easily lost their memories on the way through and it would be bad to bring them back before their memories recover.”

Ozpin nodded “He speaks the truth, very well.”

Celestia frowned “Are you sure you don’t need our help?”

Ozpin shook his head “No, Salem is my responsibility and I have to see this through.”

Luna sighed “Stubborn to the last, Ozpin just tell us when you find them.”

Discord nodded “I’ll pass the message along don’t worry” he then turned to Twilight “Return, I will keep them safe I promise.”

Twilight smiled as she gave him a small hug “Thanks Discord.”

Ozpin turned to Discord as the other three guest returned to Equestria “Tea?”

Discord laughed “I’d thought you’d never ask, I’ll be back I just need to do something.”

He vanished with a click of his claws, he reappeared in dark palace, a long table stretched out with five figure sitting at it, their leader a deathly pale woman who had red and purple veins on her arms and face. She wore a deep black robe, her red eyes eyeing him with a hint of fear behind them, she spoke in a cautious tone “Discord what do I owe the pleasure?”

Discord grimaced “Salem you are well aware that the only reason I didn’t kill you is because Ozpin doesn’t want me to, however if you do force my hand he can’t complain can he so don’t piss me off!”

A tall muscular eight foot man stood up with a three quarter black shirt and a two tone olive coat, he then roared as he charged Discord “How dare you insult our leader!”

Salem shouted “Hazel stop I…” Before she could finish her sentence her swung at Discord who caught his fist with his claw the punched his head clean off much to the shock of Salem’s other followers he then clicked his claws the body and head bursting into flames before turning into dust on the floor.

Salem froze as Discord’s eyes narrowed “You’re lucky I’m about to have tea with Ozpin or you’d be so dead.” He clicked his claws vanishing as he left Salem shivering in her chair with her three remaining followers looking in shock. Discord meanwhile was enjoying his tea with Ozpin unaware of the disruption to Salem’s efforts.

Even someone as powerful as Salem knows better then to mess with the Lord of Chaos.
