A corrupted perspective

Discord stood motionless on his pedestal for what seemed like years, growing more bored out of his mind with every passing second.....

He had thought to himself time and time again..........

How had Twilight Sparkle rekindled her friendship so easily?!

He had played the ponies like a fiddle on a string, he had them exactly where he wanted them.

He was able to manipulate them into falling to his madness through deceit and mind games, with them betraying their elements of harmony, they would be ineffective against him.

So how in TARTARUS did Twilight snap out of it and made them remember why friendship is important?!

The question ate away at his essence with every passing bird that popped on him.

Until eventually he came to a conclusion........ Perhaps he was thinking too small........

Ponyville was small and insignificant, why had he chosen that to be the chaos capital of the world?

He should have gone after Canterlot instead, seeing as it was where he was kept imprisoned and where Princess Celestia laid her sun butt all day.

Was it just to taunt Twilight for the heck of it? He couldn't really remember, he couldn't be bothered to remember all his thoughts and intentions....

Regardless, he knew that the next time he was released as soon as he stole the elements again, he would cover Canterlot in chaos.

However, after Discord had planned his next attack, the garden was visited by three unicorn mares who grouped together.

"Did anypony see you?" A green pony asked a blue pony.

"No, nopony suspects a thing." The blue pony stated, as a grey unicorn nodded that she wasn't caught either.

Curious, Discord made sure to pay close attention to what these ponies were scheming about.....

"Good, now what intel have you gathered surrounding the wedding?" The green unicorn asked the other two.

'Wedding?' Discord thought to himself....

"The wedding is scheduled to take place in three days." The grey unicorn informed the green one.

"Perfect, Chrysalis will be pleased." the green unicorn smiled evilly, as her eyes flashed a shade of green.

'Changelings? Sneaking around in Canterlot? I thought Celestia would have installed a better security measure for things like that now.....' Discord pondered to himself, as he continued to spy on what the changelings were up to.

"Personally, I don't see why this wedding is such a big deal for her majesty. Why couldn't we have invaded on any other day?" The grey "unicorn" asked the others.

"Because the groom's love is powerful enough to make her stronger! Impersonating the bride will allow her to consume that much love." The green one explained, as Discord watched with eager curiosity.

"Well, what if she gets easily found out and we're forced to retreat? In case you've forgotten, our queen isn't exactly the best at impersonation." The blue one stated.

"Are you underestimating her chances at success?! What would she say to you if you told her in person?!" The green one lashed at the blue one.

"I only believe that we shouldn't be chasing after a lost cause! if Equestria is really that big on food then we should find a different way!" The blue one argued.

"Don't you DARE go against our queens plans!" The green one argued, as she and the blue one fought over what to do.

"You two! Break it up! We aren't getting anywhere through fighting!!!" The grey one ordered her comrades.

However, unbeknownst to the bugs, Discord could feel himself getting stronger. The unrestrained chaos from the changelings arguing was loosening the elements grip on his physical form.

"Listen! Our job isn't even done in Canterlot! You two can argue and bicker like grubs AFTER we have gathered enough information to in act our plan." The grey one stated, causing the green and blue one to stop, but not without giving each other the stink eye first.

"Good, now let's move on from this garden, and make sure nopony saw the two of you bickering." The grey one sneered, as they both left.

Meanwhile, Discord could feel cracks in his stone prison, as he felt it growing weaker, and his chaotic powers getting stronger.

As the grip loosened more and more, the stone incasing his mouth was eventually broken, allowing him to speak again.

"Oh, it feels so good to be back!"
