Check rushed to the library and slammed through the door, causing the girls to look at him in shock. Seeing Twilight, Check rushed over. "Quick. Where's your on Myths, legends and prophecies?"

Twilight blinked. "Why do you ask?"

"Discord."

Blinking, Twilight levitated over a book. "I don't know why you want to hear an old mare's tale."

"Says the pony that got worked up over a mare's tale." Check countered.

"Point taken." Twilight sighed. Opening the book she scanned through it and stopped at a page. "Found it."

Check took it and looked over what it said. "I see. That's what I figured. We have to move."

"What's the matter?" Applejack asked.

"You're princess made a terrifying mistake." Check replied as Twilight gasped in disbelief.

"What do you mean by that? What could she have made a mistake on?" Twilight rambled.

"Where she put the lord of chaos. She has him sitting in the stone garden." Check explained, waiting for a moment to see if anypony would catch on. "THE KIDS ARE GOING TO THE GARDEN!"

"Your point?" Applejack asked bluntly.

Check facehoofed. "Think about it. What does Discord desire most? Chaos and disharmony. What better examples are there than kids?"

The girls thought for a moment before Applejack shook her head. "I know my little sister. She wouldn't act up in a nice place like that."

"Agreed." Rarity added. "Sweetie Belle is a smart filly. She knows better than to get involved in such nonsense."

"They're blank flanks in a class with kids that already have their cutie marks. And if my hunch is correct. Which thankfully it normally is. Two entitled fillies that will make fun of them at the first chance they get. Heck. For all we know right now. Sweetie might make a smart comment and her own friend might poke fun of it." Check countered.

"Why would they do something like that?" Rainbow asked.

"Probably for the same reason you guys make jokes about each other." Check, surmised. "Because you think you know your friend enough you can joke around with each other about silly things. Like Twilight being an egghead."

After a few moments the group blinked in realization and quickly moved to prepare for a trip to Canterlot. Check let out a sigh of relief and he followed them out.

"Looks like the next round is about to begin." He sighed to himself as they sat at the station in wait for the train.

Several hours later they arrived at Canterlot where they quickly made their way to the castle. "Wait with the princess till I get there. I'll check on the kids." He announced.

Just then a guard came over. "If you're looking for the kids. They already left."

Check sighed and thought for a moment. "Then take me to the Discord statue." He ordered. The guard opened his mouth to argue, but quickly nodded as Check pulled out his badge. "Now."

Once they got to the statue, Check dismissed the guard. After a few moments he looked at the statue. "You can drop the act now. We're alone."

After a moment the statue blinked as it's gray eyes were replaced with yellow ones. Moments later it's body changed to it's normal appearance, as the draconequus sat on the stand. "Well well well. We finally meet face to face. And that's how you greet me? I'm hurt."

"Having you in my head this whole time kinda took away from the joy a bit." Check sighed before smirking. "Though I doubt you'd know what having a voice in your head would be like."

Discord shoved his claw into his ear for a few moments before pulling it out, showing a mini him. "I wouldn't say that." He laughed.

Check shook his head. "Let's not beat around the bush. What's the next round going to be?"

"Well I was hoping that you'd hook up with one or two of the girls by now. But that clearly didn't work." He huffed. "So how about this? I'll propose a game to them. If I can make each of them fail. Then our game will begin. Otherwise…" He shrugged. "I'll be stone and back in your head for another grand adventure."

"And let me guess. I'm not allowed to intervene?"

"Bingo!" Discord cheered. "I may be the lord of chaos. But between you and me. Those girls would benefit a lot from what I have planned for them." He laughed. "And to make things more interesting. How about if I let you pick the punishment for their failure?... or the readers." He shrugged. "Whichever comes first."

Check sighed and shook his head and turned to leave. "Fine. Not like I have a choice."

Discord snapped his claw as a cage appeared around him. "No you don't. And don't worry. If I win the round. I'll let you go to start our game." He laughed before vanishing in a flash.

Check sighed as screens appeared that focused on each of the girls. "At least it's in HD." He laughed to himself.

Author's Note

What do you guys think the punishment for losing should be? Oh how should he corrupt them? I was considering on following the show on this. But that sounded a bit predictable. Let's spice it up. Any ideas?
I'll post the ideas for each girl given in the next chapter.
