Power will could corrupt even the purest of hearts

Note: the mane 6 are in their early 40's and have kids that are teenagers. I don't own the picture I found it on Bing so all credit of the picture goes to whoever made it

The mane 6 enjoyed their lives until Discord came but thankfully it was temporary. But since then they been acting weird.
What happened while Discord was free? What will happen to the children? But most importantly what will happen to the mane 6?

Prologue: Discord's defeat and the children

"So my little ponies what did you- "

"DISCORD STAY AWAY FROM THEM" Celstia yelled as she got up from where she laid.

"Oh Celestia you don't know when to give up don't you?" Discord said as he walked up to her.

"You will die for whatever you did to them." She said with pure hate as she looked at the mane 6 (they were frozen in place in shock).

"But Celestia how can that happen?" Discord said.

"Because we won't let you win Discord!" Twilight yelled.

The mane 6 nodded as the elements of harmony appeared on their neck and a tiara on Twilight's head. They went in formation and a rainbow shot out and hit Discord turning him into stone. He didn't even flinch he just smiled because he knew his job was done.

"Oh Twilight are all okay?" Celestia said hugging Twilight.

"Yes Princess." Twilight said but pushed the princess away.

"We have to go now Princess Celestia." Twilight said in a rush.

"Oh then you may go home then." Celestia said.

The mane 6 took a train back to Ponyville but something was different with them, it looked like they had no emotion even Pinkie Pie didn't smile. It was real silent on the train until Applejack broke it.

"Ya'll think what Discord showed us could actually happen?"

"Maybe if we just do it the way he showed us then we will get what we want." Twilight said.

"Yeah then after we get it we could throw a party!" Pinkie said.

They all started to giggle and their coats got a little darker as they giggled.

"Spike, Dawn I'm home!" Twilight called out.

"Hey mom." Dawn said.

Dawn was 16 years old unicorn and her coat was light purple and had dark blue mane. Her cutie mark was tiny stars because she loved looking at the stars and pointed to the stars and constellations to her mom everynight. She loved reading books and was a student of Princess Luna. Dawn loved playing with her friends she grew up with.

"Hey Twilight." Spike said.

Spike was taller than Twilight now.

"So what did the princess want mom?" Dawn ask.

"Oh we just had to fight Discord again." Twilight said

"Oh ok." Dawn said.

"Sweetie bell, Ruby I'm back!" Rarity yelled.

"Hey sis I'm going to hang out with Applebloom and Scootaloo." Sweetie bell said as she asked passed her and went out the door.

"Hey mom are we going gem hunting again with Spike soon i can't wait to find more gems." Ruby asked.

Ruby was 17 year old unicorn and had a white coat and her mane was ruby red. Her cutie mark was a red heart gem (like the one spike gave Rarity) because her love of gems and fasion (like her mom). She wasn't a drama queen like her mom and really didn't care about getting dirty when needed. Whenever she had spare time she would go to the library to see Dawn.

"Probably later but not right now, I'm really tired. Do you think you could finish the dresses I started yesterday?"

"Sure." Ruby replied and went to the work room.

"Is anyone home?" Fluttershy asked quietly.

"Mom your home!" Flower said running up to her mom to give her a big hug.

Flower is a 17 year old pegasus. Her coat is yellow and her mane is light green. Her cutie mark is a heart next to a flower because she could grow food faster and bigger. She loves and can communicate to all animals (like her mom). She is not shy at all, she always visits her friends when they're not doing anything and is good at flying.

"So how are the animals? Did something bad happen? Oh I wasn't gone too long." Fluttershy said lookin for the animals because her cottage was empty except her and Flower.

"Mom calm down they just went for a picnic." Flower said calming her mom down.

"Oh ok." Fluttershy said.

"Lightning, Tornado open the door! I left my keys on my bed!" Rainbow called out.

"Oh no mom is home what do we do?" Tornado whispered to Lightning.

Tornado dash was a 18 year old Pegasus, he has a light grey coat and his mane was black and white. His cutie mark is a lightning bolt because he was like his mom but he was faster then her, she was surprised when he beat her at age 10.

Lightning dash was 16 years old Pegasus, he has a white coat and a rainbow mane. His cutie mark was a balloon next to a tornado because he loved to party and made a mess of things. He and his brother are best friends with Chocolate.

"Fine have it that way." Rainbow said as she turned around and bucked the door down.

"Hey why didn't you o-" Rainbow said before she looked inside the house.

"Mom we can explain." Lightning said.

"Wh-what did you do?! You destroyed this house! This is why you guys can't be home alone I should of hired a babysitter! Go up to your rooms now." Rainbow yelled.

"Bu-" Tornado said.

"NOW!" Rainbow screamed.

Out of fear, Tornado and Lightning flew as fast as they can to their rooms.

" Hey Rainbow dash I'm back from cam-. Whoa what happen?" Scootaloo flew in.

"I honestly don't know what they did it's like a tornado got in here. Those boys are lucky clouds are easy to shape."

" I was gonna hang out with Sweetie and Apple bloom but do you need help?" Scootaloo asked.

"Nah. This is nothing, remember when they were younger they set the old house on fire." Rainbow dash said.

"Oh yeah. They did the impossible. I mean really how do you set a cloud on fire." Scootaloo said.

"Hey everypony I'm home!" Applejack yelled.

"Hey big sis. I'm gonna go hang out with Sweetie bell and Scootaloo.

"Ok but y'all better stay safe." Applejack said.

"Hey mom if your looking for uncle Mac he's in the orchard with Chocolate." Appleflower said.

"Okay thanks Appleflower. Tell them I'm in my room if they need something." Applejack said.

"Okay" Appleflower said.

Chocolate Apple a 17 year old stallion.Chocolate has a brown mane and a orange coat. Chocolate's cutie mark is a chocolate covered apple with sprinkles because he made 15 chocolate apples in 2 minutes. His mom named him chocolate because she lost to Rainbow Dash in a bet. Chocolate loves to play with Tornado and Lighting when their not grounded.

Appleflower is 18 year old mare. She has a yellow mane and a pink coat. Her cutie mark is a apple surrounded by peddles because she loves watching the apple flower peddles blow outside. She plays with her mom's friends' children when she is done with her chores. Her and her brother get along fine.

"Cherry I'm home!" Pinkie said as she hoped in her house.

" hello?" Pinkie said as she went in the dark room.

" SURPRISE!" Everypony jumped out of their hiding place.

"Happy welcome back party Mom! Mom?"

Pinkie was holding her chest then fell to the ground.

"Mom!" Cherry said as she ran to her mom.

"Fooled you." Pinkie said as she bounced up to her feet.

"Nice prank mom, I'll get you back someday." Cherry said.

"Sure you will. Now lets get this party started!" Pinkie said.

"Yeah!" Everypony yelled.

Cherry is a 15 year old mare. She has a pink coat and a red mane (it's the same style as her mother's.) she could take a prank no matter how mean it is. Her cutie mark is 4 balloons and confetti. She loves to tell jokes, have parties and most of all pulling pranks. She helps the cakes bake sometimes. But most of her time she plays with her mom's friends children.
