The frightened looks on the little fillies faces was just to precious. I would savour this memory forever
"Your not reformed at all Discord! I should call my sister and her friends on you!" Threaten Apple Bloom. I shivered at the thought of being set in stone again. I wouldn't have it.
"Oh no! Don't think of it like that! I myself know what it's like to be different. In fact, I'm the only Draconequus alive. No one else like me, and I dint have a cutiemark either" I explain, turning my body to one side to reveal my blank flank. This would be like stealing candy from, well, a filly. The little ponies eyes widened in what look like sympathy
"Oh, we're sorry Discord." Said Scootaloo, stretching out her little orange wings.
"Give us a minute" Said Sweetie Belle walking into a corner and signaling for the others to follow.
"Of course! I said poofing out of the room, leaving behind the smell of my signature fairy floss.
"What are we gonna do girls? From what my sister has told me, Discord was one of the hardest villains she ever faced! I don't think we can trust him" said Apple Bloom, pacing around the small room.
"This may be our only chance! Maybe we will turn out to be heroes! I think we should give him a chance" Scootaloo pointed out. 'Oh yes, I like that girl, but what would her talent be?' I thought from my eaves dropping point outside
"Yeah, Scootaloo's right girls. And if Discord is up to no good, we might be able to defeat him and get our cutiemarks as the new Elements!" Exclaimed Sweetie Belle.
Apple Bloom reluctantly sighed "Fine. Discord you can come in!" She called. For once I walked into the room instead of teleporting
"We're gonna give you a chance" reported the yellow crusader. I embraced the group for he second time that day
"Oh thank you! Now to get started. What are your talents? Don't tell me yours though, Scootaloo, tell me Apple Blooms, Sweetie Belle tell me Scootaloo's, and Apple Bloom tell me Sweetie Belle's" instructed The Lord of Chaos
"Apple Bloom's great at building and mechanics" stated Scootaloo
"Scootaloo's the best stunter - aside from Rainbow Dash - in Ponyville" Sweetie Belle admitted
"Sweetie Belles a fantastic singer!" Said Apple Bloom.
"Hmmmmm ok then I can work with this" I said, scribbling some notes down in my now present notepad. After a couple minutes of 'Ahs' and 'oh!'s' I had a plan. "Now girls stay still" I said standing up but shrinking myself so as to fit in the tiny room
"What are you doing?!" Asked Apple Bloom, concern in her voice.
"Just stand still, my villainous little friends" I ordered as a small ball of magick appeared in my paw "You first Sweetie Belle. Or should I say 'Siren'!" I said as the ball of magick went from my paw to Sweetie's chest as she rose up, her eyes glowing, mane flowing above her head. Suddenly, in a bright flash of white, Sweetie was no longer floating but instead she lay on the ground.
"Discord! What did you do?" Accused Scootaloo
"I have only brought her to her destiny. Wait" I ordered, watching the white filly as she slowly stood up. The others gasped
"Sweetie, you look, different!" Exclaimed Apple Bloom. I made a mirror appear in front of the changed filly. I smiled as Sweetie Belle gasped. It took her a minute to take in her new look. Her mane black and purple with a small streak if the original pink separating the black and purple.
"How do you feel?" I questioned the filly.
"Normal, but I look different! What are my powers?" Asked my excited young protege
"All in good time.Now for you two" I turned to the remaining two fillies. Too make things move faster, I made a ball of magick in my claw and paw, I released the magick as it float toward the two fillies. As soon as the transformation was done there was a mirror waiting in front of the newly transformed pair. Apple Bloom's bow was now black and she had a metal area cover her left eye.
"What happened to my eye!?" Apple Bloom exclaimed
"Don't worry, it's not permanent, it's part of your power, all you have to do it think of what you want go make and your eye piece will seek out parts within the room your standing in to make that object. It also picks up heat signatures" I explained "But don't try it out yet! We have to wait"
Scootaloo was taking in her new look as well, she had a black streak through her pink hair, a purple mask and a belt filled with rope, a grappling hook, a katana and other dangerous objects.
"So, what do you think, Blackbird?" I asked Scootaloo, using her new name
"I. Look. AWESOME!" She answered flying around the room without even realizing it. Her fellow Crusaders just stared at her
"Scootaloo! Your-your Flying!!" Exclaimed Sweetie Belle
"Huh?" Said the orange pony as she turned her head to see her large black feathered wings, they were finally the right alive for her age "Oh. My. Celestia." She said, zooming down to hug me. She looked up with teary eyes "Thank you. So much" said the estatic pony, burying her masked face into my chest as I slowly put her down.
"Ok! I'll explain your powers. Sweetie Belle, your 'The Siren', when you sing, others will do what you say. Apple Bloom, your 'Metal Core', I've already explained your powers. And Scootaloo, your 'Blackbird', an assassin of the night, you can fly, and you have an arsenal of intelligence at hour disposal" I explain, "So what do you guys think? Are you ready go test yourselves out?" I ask
"Bring it on" they said in unison
