Everything was tense, the court room was on high alert. Tirek the Centaur who stole magic from ponies, was chained up and smiling evilly. Everypony in the room all seethed at him, even Discord was there though he didn’t care at all.
The reason he was even brought in, was because he had been a part of this whole situation. But he didn’t seemed to be that worried, but everything was about to change in just a matter of moments.
“Tirek you have done many evil deeds, over the course of your return. But this one is the worst!” Celestia growled. Nopony had seen her this angry in awhile.
“What could it possibly be about.” Tirek asked nonchalantly. Everyone glares at him, aside from Discord.
“That before you teamed up with Discord, you snuck into Manehatten. And attacked an innocent Earth Pony, at Mill Neck, N. Y. and…” She trailed off, but managed to compose herself. “…and killed their dog.” This made everyone gasp.
But Discord was different, he was downright horrified. He banged his eagle fist onto his table, causing everyone to face him. “Discord don’t cause a distraction right now!” Luna demanded.
But they noticed Discord’s face, this made them feel worried. “Discord what’s wrong?” Fluttershy asked worriedly, as did the rest of the Mane six who sat nearby.
“What was the place you said this pony was attacked?” Discord asked with a serious voice.
“Mill Neck, N. Y., what’s the issue?” Celestia responded. Discord glared heavily at the Centaur who was confused. “What?” He asked.
Discord floated from out of his seat, and landed in front of Tirek. He looked at his chest. “That’s a nice build.” Discord joked slightly.
“Really a joke at this time Discord!” Rainbow Dash said from across the room. Tirek smiled. “Thanks.” But then he was punched in the gut, by the Draconequus.
This caused gasps to fill the room. “WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS!!!” Celestia yelled. With her, Luna, Cadence and Twilight igniting their horns.
“He fucked up.” This made everyone go silent, Nopony had a reason to use profanity unless it was necessary. And for Discord to be the one to say it, made it more surprising.
The four Alicorns sat back down slowly, getting into comfortable positions. “What was that for! I did something I’m supposed to do!” Tirek exclaimed finally being able to breathe.
Discord grabbed him and brought him close to his face. “You know what I’m talking about!” Tirek didn’t understand. “What then? You mean the Earth Pony? So what I stole his magic and killed his dog!” He received another punch to the gut.
He fell to the floor, Discord glares heavily at him. He was receiving glares as well, but Nopony moved to do anything.
The Draconequus snapped his fingers and a glass drink appeared, along with chocolate milk in a bottle. He undid the lid and began pouring the liquid, and sighed heavily. Everyone watched in curiosity.
“It’s not what you did Tirek, that angers me so. It’s who you did it to.” Discord told him, everyone was slowly understanding why he attacked Tirek. But how bad was it.
“Who the fucking Nopony!” Tirek asked angrily, if Discord could say things like that, then he could as well.
Discord faced him coldly, after he finished pouring his drink. “That fucking Nopony… is John Wick.” He answered.
Just by that name it sent shivers down, everyponies spines. Discord drank down his chocolate milk quickly. “He was once an associate in the assassin business. They called him “Baba Yaga””
Everypony knew what that meant, except for the Centaur. “What’s does that mean?” Tirek asked confused.
Rainbow Dash snorted. “Really the Boogeypony, that’s an old foals tale!”
“Darn tootin!” Applejack agreed.
Discord looked at them. “Well John wasn’t exactly the Boogeypony.” He faced Tirek again. “He was the one you sent to kill the fucking Boogeypony.” He growled.
This made everypony terrified.
An Earth Pony who had a Blackbeard, held his sledgehammer high and slammed it down onto the concrete ground, causing it to crack.
Tirek stood there and was terrified to say the least. “Oh.” Was all he could say. Discord began walking towards him.
“John. Is a pony of focus.”
Bang
“Commitment.” Discord said still walking up to the Centaur.
Bang
“Sheer Will.”
Bang
“Something you know very little about.” Discord continued as he stood right in front of the Centaur.
He was then ready to reveal something truly terrifying. “I once saw him, kill three Griffons in a bar. With a pencil.” This made gasps fill the room, even from the Princesses.
Bang
“With a fucking…”
Bang
Bang
“…Pencil.” He walked away from Tirek, who was on the verge of passing out. And he once again poured himself a chocolate milk drink. “Then suddenly one day. He asked to leave. It was over a mare of course.”
Bang
The Earth Pony who had hit the floor multiple times with the sledgehammer, finally stopped and threw it to the side and began digging through the concrete.
“So he made a deal.”
“He was given an impossible task.” Discord continued, while looking at Tirek.
The Pony continued to dig through the concrete.
“A job, that no one could pull off.” By the way he said that, it meant all creatures, which made everypony realise how bad this was.
The Pony kept digging, getting closer to what he was looking for.
Discord drank down his chocolate milk and looked back at Tirek. “The bodies he buried that day. Lay the foundation of what Tartarus is now.”
This made a lot of the ponies faint. Though the Mane six and the royal sisters continued to sit and watch, Fluttershy was on the point of tears.
The Pony moved the concrete out of the way seeming to have found what he was looking for.
Discord who had walked away from Tirek faced him again. “And then Tirek. A few days after his wife died.” This caught everyone off guard.
He continued to push off the remaining debris.
“You steal his magic.”
There appeared to be a wooden box in the floor.
“And kill his fucking dog.” Discord gritted his teeth, very angry. Tirek walked up to him. “Listen I can make this right.” Discord looked deadpanned.
“Oh. How do you plan that?” He asked. Tirek answered.
“By finishing what I started.” Discord turned around towards the group of Ponies he’s come to know, and points at the Centaur. “What the? Did he hear a fucking word I said?!”
Tirek tried to continue but Discord surprised everyone, when he hugged the Centaur. But it wasn’t out of love, as he gripped the back of his head and gave him an ominous warning. “John will come for you.”
He opened up the box.
“And you will do nothing. Because you can do nothing, so get the fuck out of my sight.” He pushed Tirek away and faced the group of Ponies.
“Do what you want with him.” He pointed at Tirek.
“But don’t try and stop John, unless you want more of your innocent Ponies getting caught in the cross-fire.” Discord told them before teleporting away.
The others were terrified, of what just happend. when Discord was serious, it meant that it was really bad and true.
Inside the box laid weapons that were unknown to Equestria, guns that could shoot an kill somepony with ease.
John was ready to kill this Centaur. Even if it meant, he’d die doing so.
Author's Note
A one shot I wanted to do. Cause I wanted to make a John Wick story but just couldn’t figure out a good plot.
But here I thought this would be a bit of fun. And give us a darker side to Equestria’s history.
I also left things ambiguous, because this isn’t supposed to be that deep.
Anyway hope you enjoy this story, and I’ll see you in my Sonic stories. Bye for now.
