Discord, Celestia, and Luna has just turned the Legion Of Doom into stone when suddenly Crystal Guards showed up and began to put magic proof handcuffs on Discord.
“What the-“ Discord questioned trying to teleport out of there but he could not use his magic.
“Please get off him.” Fluttershy begged.
Celestia then was angered by this and said “Halt I understand your concern but I am giving Discord a pardon.”
The guards scoffed in disgust.
“Sorry Princess but we are part of the Crystal Empire our orders come from Cadence and Shining Armor you will have to take it with them.” A unicorn guard informed.
“Believe it I will.” Twilight said looking at Discord with reassurance.
“Shining Armor, Cadence.” Twilight called out walking up to the throne room with the Mane 5, Spike, Starlight, and Sunburst.
“Twily you made it.” Shining Armor said smiling embracing his younger sibling.
“Shiny, why are you arresting Discord he had good intentions.” Twilight asked sorrowfully.
“Sis I had to, Discord was causing trouble for all of Equestria, and almost got it taken over by the three most evil villains in Equestria he must learn actions have consequences.” Shining Armor explained with remorse.
“But he’s our friend you can’t do this to him.” Fluttershy said in tears glaring a bit.
“We need to, justice must be served our kingdom was almost taken over by Sombra because of him.” Cadence argues with remorse.
“And recently our reputations haven’t been that good and the Empire has been in panic ever since and it’s all Discord’s fault.” Shining Armor ranted angrily.
Discord and the guards then showed up.
“Discord you are under arrest for bringing back Equestria’s biggest threats, necromancy, and treason your court day is tomorrow.” Shining Armor announces.
Discord then walked to his cell and sat in there and began quietly sobbing.
What had he done?
Shining Armor has his guards searching up some of the crimes Discord did and one of them made his blood boil he was going to use that card when the trial occurred.
The courthouse was full of the jury, The Mane 6, Spike, Starlight, Sunburst and the Royal Sisters, Cadence was the judge and Shining Armor was the prosecutor.
Twilight ended up being Discord’s lawyer because she was experienced in Royal business.
“All sit, we have gathered here today to decide the fate of The Lord Of Chaos Discord. He has broken many laws and is charged with breaking out prisoners, necromancy, and bringing back several villains.” Cadence announced.
“So Shining Armor please present your argument.” Cadence decreed.
“Your honor Discord brought back Tirek, Chrysalis, Cozy Glow, and King Sombra his crimes brought trauma to all involved I call to the stand Starlight Glimmer.” Shining Armor commanded.
“Why me?” Starlight asked nervously.
“No questions just head to the stand.” Cadence commanded.
“So Starlight Glimmer is it true that the defendant brought back Queen Chrysalis your arch enemy? You must tell the truth, lying for Discord will only get you punished.” Shining Armor instructed.
“Yes he brought back Queen Chrysalis.” Starlight admitted mournfully.
“I see and last we saw she threatened you with a fate worse than death, is that correct?” Shining Armor asked angrily.
“Yes.” Starlight admitted in tears “I mostly got paranoia from the fact Chrysalis could get me at any time and well I was terrified for my life.”
Twilight facepalmed Starlight wasn’t helping Discord’s case here.
“I see and instead of Discord capturing Chrysalis and helping he decides to use her as his pawn for his ridiculous plan knowing she has a vengeance for you.” Shining Armor proclaimed “And is it true that Chrysalis captured you in the dungeons?”
“Yes and I was scared for my life and my world felt like it was shattering before my eyes that I would lose everything I cared about that day.” Starlight nodded.
Twilight felt empathy for the unicorn she knew how she felt.
“All because of Discord our world almost plunged into madness and creatures such as Starlight almost lost everything they cared about and were overwhelmed in fear because of this plan of his.” Shining Armor announces making the jury gasp and discuss making Twilight and Discord worried.
“I would also like to call Spike The Dragon to the stand.” Shining Armor commanded in a serious voice.
Spike was then at the stands sweating.
“Spike The Dragon is it true that Chrysalis almost ripped your wings off?” Shining Armor asked.
“Yes it’s true.” Spike admitted “I’m sorry but I felt like my life was over and I was gonna die I am so glad I’m alive.” Spike said tearing up.
Discord then looked down in guilt Twilight then decided to make her case.
“Objection.” Twilight called out.
“On what grounds?” Cadence asked seriously.
“On the grounds that Chrysalis did all those crimes not Discord, Chrysalis made those decisions in which Discord had no control over.” Twilight argued.
“Yes but it is because of Discord those villains even did those crimes and he is well aware of what they planned to do so there is no excuse.” Shining Armor said.
In the end Discord was convicted as guilty and he was sentenced to 10 years in prison.
“Shining Armor please you can’t do this.” Twilight begged on her knees.
“Do you know what my worst nightmare is?” Shining Armor asked angrily. “That one day some villain will take over Equestria and I will find both my siblings, my daughter, and my wife dead and thanks to Discord that nightmare almost came true.”
“Shiny I had no idea.” Twilight said in remorse.
“It’s okay Twilight but we must deliver justice to this traitor.” Shining Armor proclaimed angrily.
Shining Armor then walked off while Fluttershy began crying at the fact her friend was now in jail while her friends tried to comfort her.
Shining Armor then visited Discord in jail “Well how do you feel? There’s no getting out of this one Discord.”
“But Shining Armor 10 years you are mad.” Discord argued a bit disgusted.
“You are in no position to be talking like this and considering everything you’ve done this is fair.” Shining Armor states angrily.
Shining Armor then left leaving Discord trapped in his cell.
Fluttershy was furious at what happened her best friend had been taken away from her all because he made one mistake.
Starlight and Spike were called down to the map room they shuddered in fear at what the Mane 6 planned to do to them. They didn’t really help Discord’s case and in fact made it worse and now they were shunned by Fluttershy.
Twilight then began speaking as soon as Starlight and Spike showed up.
“So it’s come to my attention that the Fluttershy has been treating Spike and Starlight like their Sombra and Chrysalis, care to explain Fluttershy?” Twilight asked softly.
“Because they went against my friend, and you two claim to like Discord.” Fluttershy said angrily.
“We do like Discord, I am his best guy friend in Equestria.” Spike argued offended Fluttershy suggested such a thing.
“Then why did you go against him at court?” Fluttershy asked sternly.
“Fluttershy we had no choice, you heard Shining Armor we had to tell the truth or we’d be punished.” Starlight argued annoyed with the pegasus.
“But I-I- you’re right what am I doing?” Fluttershy asked crying.
“I see what’s goin’ on Fluttershy here is goin’ through grief, one of the stages is anger, and the other one is sadness.” Applejack explained.
“I’m sorry Spike and Starlight I’ve been a total monster, I just miss Discord and I’ve been taking it out on you. Please forgive me.” Fluttershy apologized in tears.
“It’s okay Fluttershy, we’re here and I forgive you.” Starlight comforted the Pegasus.
“Me too.” Spike said happily.
“Thanks guys but I still think Discord should be released.” Fluttershy said in tears.
“Fluttershy I know it hurts but we must accept reality.” Rarity said.
“I mean Discord broke a lot of laws with what he did.” Rainbow Dash said backing up Rarity.
“Maybe you’re right, hopefully we can visit him soon.” Fluttershy stated.
“Until then you have us to be there for you.” Pinkie Pie said embracing Fluttershy.
The others also hugged Fluttershy which made her smile.
“Thank you.” Fluttershy said with happiness.
