It was a bright and shining day in Equestria, all the ponies were doing their daily work and runs, and all of Equestria had lived in peace, at least at that moment in time.

It was at Canterlot Castle, an electric explosion had boomed across the entire world of Equestria. The Mane Six were trying to fight of Discord, who had upturned Celestia's magic to imprison her in stone and the same for Luna. In the heat of the moment, Twilight and Applejack were racing towards Discord, in a plan to stun and buck him to he blacked out. Their plan didn't work, as he caused an explosion where they were at, knocking them back into the walls. They slid off, and the pressure had been so hard from the collision Applejack broke her back hoof and Twilight broke 2 ribs. They tried to flee, but Discord barricaded the door and made fire erupt from the floor, turning AJ and Twilight into mere ash piles.

Fluttershy and Rainbow were busy flying and strafing around Discord in the air, but he eventually caught them with a whack of his tail, sending them Earthward. The hit the floor, and were stunned for a brief second. Turns out that small window of time was enough to try to hit them. Fluttershy, being a weaker pony, was hit dead-on and had just died from the pressure of the hit, while Rainbow managed to dash out the window for safety, with a crippled wing.

Pinkie and Rarity were on one side of Discord trying to ambush him. Pinkie was using the Party Cannon, and Rarity was using her magic to grab anything she could that would fit into the cannon. It wasn't long after Discord had felled Fluttershy that he took down Pinkie and Rarity. Pinkie saw the swipe before Rarity did, and ran off before Rarity had been hit. Discord swiped with his paw, and had broken Rarity's jaw and had busted her right eardrum. She flew and hit the wall, which broke more bones and killed her. Pinkie, who was cowering in the corner, had begged Discord not to hurt her.

"Maybe," said Discord, "But you are a mere pest to me!" Discord laughed sarcastically and smashed Pinkie into the wall, instantly felling her.

All of this could be seen down in Ponyville. As Rainbow Flew behind a cloud for cover, a loud Boom had been heard from Canterlot Castle again, this time ravaging the place to complete ruins. It was now titled, "The Ruins of Canterot Castle."
