A Very Chaotic Challenge
Twilight Challenges the Lord of Chaos
By iAmSiNnEr
Princess Celestia cleared her throat. “I've called you here for a matter of great importance. It seems an old foe of mine, someone I thought I had defeated long ago, has returned, though a year later than I thought he would have. His name... is Discord.”
“Discord is the mischievous spirit of disharmony,” Princess Celestia continued. “Before my sister and I stood up to him, he ruled Equestria in an eternal state of unrest and unhappiness. Luna and I saw how miserable life was for Earth ponies, Pegasi, and unicorns alike, so after discovering the Elements of Harmony, we combined our powers and rose up against him, turning him to stone.”
“Alright, Princess!” Rainbow Dash nodded.
“I thought the spell we cast would keep him contained forever, but since Luna and I are no longer connected to the Elements, the spell has been broken,” Celestia sighed. “Alas, nothing can last forever.”
“No longer connected?” Twilight queried.
“This is Canterlot Tower, where the Elements are kept inside since all of you recovered them. I need you to wield the Elements of Harmony once again and stop Discord before he thrusts all of Equestria into eternal chaos,” Celestia replied.
“But why us? Why don't you–” Twilight began, but Celestia interrupted her.
“You six showed the full potential of the Elements by harnessing the magic of your friendship to beat a mighty foe. Although Luna and I once wielded the Elements, it is you who now control their power, and it is you who must defeat Discord!” Celestia exclaimed as they trotted towards the room which she kept the Elements in-
An evil laugh filled the chamber, echoing throughout. “Tia, Tia, Tia,” a sinister voice spread through the room. “It’s rude talking about someone without them there. Don’t you have any manners?” A draconequus popped into existence in front of them, guzzling a cup of chocolate milk.
“Wait,” Twilight blinked. “Is he drinking...the glass?!”
“Indeed I am, my dear Twilight,” Discord threw the chocolate milk aside, the glass gone. It splattered on the ground and exploded, throwing small pieces of debris everywhere. Celestia conjured a shield to protect them, glaring at Discord all the while.
“Anyways,” Discord grinned. “I have good news for you, Tia. I won’t be causing chaos, on one condition.”
“You’re lying,” Celestia narrowed her eyes. “You always do.”
“Naw,” Discord smirked. “When have I ever lied to you?”
“How about a thousand years ago, when you tricked me and Luna to fall into a pit full of explosives?” Celestia snapped. “How about the time when you dropped us into the ocean?”
“Details, details, details,” Discord shrugged. “Doesn’t matter. Anyways,” he turned to Twilight. "I...have a little proposition for you," Discord's eyes literally glimmered as he said that. "You see, the reason why I waited a year before escaping is that I wanted to observe you. Yes, you, Twilight Sparkle." Six hands pointed at her.
"Get on with it," Twilight snapped. "What proposition?"
"You see," Discord explained. "My reputation as the creator of the greatest explosion ever is at stake. If you create the most impressive explosion ever, I will concede to you and reform myself, yadda yadda. But if you don’t, I win, and I get to smother Equestria in chaos. Do we have a deal?"
“Twilight, don’t do it-” Celestia began, but Discord made a zipping motion with his hands, causing a zip to appear on Celestia’s mouth and not allowing her to speak.
“Shh,” Discord shushed her. “Let your student do the talking. She’s much more...chaotic and fun to talk to.” A corona of magic built on Celestia’s horn, but Discord just rolled his eyes and snapped his fingers, causing Celestia’s wings and horn to disappear. Her eyes widened in surprise, and she backed up a little.
“So,” Discord turned to Twilight. “Do we have a deal?”
“We do,” Twilight nodded after considering for a moment. “How do we do this?”
“I’ll give you a day to prepare,” Discord grinned. “We’ll meet in Ponyville exactly twenty-four hours from now. If you aren’t there by then, I’ll teleport you, no biggie.” With that, he disappeared, leaving a life-size cotton candy replica of him.
The zip on Celestia’s mouth disappeared, and her horn and wings returned. “Quick, we need the Elements-”
“I’ve already hidden them, Tia,” Discord’s voice came from all around them. “There’s no use trying. Did you really think I’d be stupid enough to get blasted by them twice?”
“Damn it. It was worth a try.” Celestia groaned.
“No, it really wasn’t.” Discord’s voice replied back. “And no, Twilight, you cannot blow me up. I am the lord of chaos.”
“Damn it.” Twilight sighed.
Twilight stood beside Discord, the two of them looking out over an artificial forest created by Discord near Ponyville. Discord rubbed his hands in glee. “Shall we begin?” he asked.
Twilight nodded resolutely. “You can go first, Discord.”
“Very well,” he smirked. “Be prepared to lose, Sparkle. My explosions are the best.” He snapped his fingers, and thousands of fireworks with pieces of dynamite tied to them appeared in front of them. With another snap, all of them launched at the same time, shortly before exploding in mid-air.
The result? A blast of fire and color in the sky as everything exploded at once, showering the world with flames and hundreds of explosions happening at once. It was rather magnificent and beautiful, Twilight had to admit. Deep down, she knew she couldn’t beat that.
“Well?” Discord smirked, gloating at her expression. “Want to admit defeat?”
“No,” Twilight smirked at his surprised expression. “In fact, I have already won.”
“What?” Discord demanded. “What do you mean?”
Twilight’s grin grew wider as she brought out a book, giant words emblazoned across the title along with her name at the bottom of the cover, naming her as the author. Discord blinked and put on glasses, reading the title out loud.
“The Most Impressive Explosion Ever,” he read out. “By Twilight Sparkle- wait a second.”
“Phrasing, Discord, phrasing,” Twilight’s smile reached her eyes. “I win.”
“Oh, cmon,” Discord complained. “That’s not fair at all to me!”
“You told me to create “the most impressive explosion ever”,” Twilight pointed out. “And so I did. Time to hold up your side of the bargain.”
Discord slumped in defeat. “Fine,” he sighed. “I admit defeat. I’ll reform myself.”
“Don’t look so crestfallen, Discord, you tried your best” Fluttershy told him as she trotted up with a cup of tea. “Tea?”
“Yeah, sure, why not?” He threw the cup into his mouth, and his eyes widened as the flavor hit his tongue. “That...is good tea. What type of tea is this?”
“Chamomile,” was the answer. “If you want more, you can join me every Tuesday for tea and sandwiches,” Fluttershy beamed at him. “If you promise to be nice, I’ll make as much tea for you as you want.”
“You know,” Discord stared at Fluttershy, then to the rest of Twilight’s friends. “Being reformed doesn’t seem so bad, after all.”
"Now that you're reformed," Twilight grinned. "I'd like to try something."
"What?" Discord asked curiously, before looking down. "Oh, you sly piece of-"
"Ah," Celestia beamed from her viewpoint on the balcony of the castle. "Finally, she doesn't blow anyone up! Twilight has finally saved Equestria the right way!”
“Wait for it…” Luna muttered.
“Luna, my faith paid off!” Celestia sang out in joy.
She looked out over the small group. "What a wonderful day-" As she said that, Discord blew up, bananas flying everywhere.
"WHY TWILIGHT WHYYYYYYYYYYYYY-"
