//------------------------------// // Reinforcements // Story: Back in Time // by DisUsernameScreamsKhaos //------------------------------// The princesses were back to their respective battle stations. "Uh-oh." thought Twilight. "Let me guess... you have tons more Disclones and changelings in your area." thought Luna. "How did you know?" asked Twilight. "Same problem here." replied Luna. "Same here too." thought Celestia. "Ditto here." thought Cadence. Unfortunately for the princesses and their allies, Discord created more clones while they were away. Everypony in their team was outnumbered 3:1. Not only that, Chrysalis apparently absorbed enough love to power up all her changelings as well. Things were not going well. "Do you want to give up now Princess?" asked Discord. He used 4 Disclones to deliver the message to each princess. "If you forfeit now, you and your subjects' suffering will end." said each Disclone simultaneously. "I will never forfeit!" replied Twilight from her area. "Do you take me for a fool Discord?" asked Celestia rhetorically from where she was. "I will never forfeit." "I will never let my subjects suffer under your rein." replied Cadence from the Crystal Empire. "Ha! Do you really think that I'd believe that you'd stop all this chaos if we forfeit? You are a fool!" replied Luna. Discord was not amused by these answers. "Very well then... I will have to do this the hard way!" said Discord. Suddenly all of the Disclones multiplied tenfold. "HAHAHAHA! DO YOU REALLY THINK YOU CAN BEAT ME?!" Things were not going well. "Dusk?" asked a midnight blue unicorn. "Is that you?" "Yes it is Clex." replied Dusk. Dusk was now in Equestria2, a parallel universe to the Equestria he lived in. He was best friends with a certain royal guard in this dimension. This stallion's name was Clex, Clex Alletto. They had met years ago when they were somewhat younger. After defeating a foe that threatened the place, Clex became the captain of the lunar guards. Equestria2 became a prosperous land afterward. All of the previos villains became allies with the ponies, life was perfect. "How are you even still alive?" asked Clex. "I was reincarnated a while ago. I need your help." said Dusk. "Reincarnated? Cool! How did it feel?" asked Clex. "No time for that. Get all your guards, all the solar guards, and probably even the Princesses." said Dusk. "Uhm... okay. Do you want me to bring along Discord too?" asked Clex. "Yeah, the changelings as well." said Dusk. "What's so important that you need all of Equestria2 anyway?" asked Clex. "Discord and the changelings are attacking the land. The short time I stayed there was just to be reincarnated, I was sent here to get reinforcements." said Dusk. "Ok then, go ahead. I'll tell the princesses to gather everypony to travel there soon." replied Clex. "Thanks." said Dusk. Dusk pressed the button to return home. "Good luck old friend." said Clex. As soon as Dusk left, Clex teleported to the palace and told the princesses all about the situation. Hopefully this much more allies would help. Dusk appeared back in his Equestria. Unfortunately, things were even worse now. Everywhere was almost in ruins and Disclones and changelings were everywhere. Suddenly a Discord hiself appeared in front of Dusk out of nowhere. "Well, well, well, if it isn't Dusk Chaser." said Discord. "Nice to see you again." "Wish I could say the same Discord." said Dusk. "Aww... aren't you glad to see your old pal?" asked Discord. "Seriously? I get reincarnated to see you waging war. What part of that would make me happy to see you." said Dusk. "As sharp a tongue as usual I see." said Discord. "Why are you doing this anyway?" asked Dusk. Discord got mad. With a snap of his fingers Dusk was immobilized. "WHY?! BECAUSE NOPONY LIKES ME!" shouted Discord. "I'VE TRIED EVERYTHING! I BEHAVED, I WAS POLITE, I WAS THE PERFECT MODEL OF GOODNESS! BUT DO YOU KNOW WHAT THEY DID?!" asked Discord. "What?" asked Dusk with an slightly angry and slightly annoyed tone. "THEY SHUNNED ME! THEY TREATED ME JUST LIKE HOW THEY DID WHEN I CAUSED CHAOS!" "That's it? You put millions of lives at risk because of how they treated you? That is stupid." said Dusk. Discord was not amused. He grew even more furious. With a snap of his fingers, he was gone. He had also created millions more clones. Dusk was still immobilized. "Well if it isn't my worst enemy... cheese." Dusk always hated cheese, and Discord new that. How ironic that Discord used cheese to trap Dusk. "Ok then... how do I get out of this?" Luckily for Dusk, reinforcements arrived. Clex and his companions have finally arrived. "Dusk? Why are you trapped in cheese?" asked Clex. "Discord trapped me in my weakness. Get me out of here please." said Dusk. "I'll handle it." said Ramon, formerly Discord from Equestria2. He had become more refined and behaved. With a snap of his fingers Dusk was free. "Thank you Ramon." said Dusk. "No problem. Now what is this about a Discord predicament?" asked Ramon. "Well, why don't we wait for the rest of Equestria2 before I tell you. I wouldn't want to repeat myself." said Dusk. "But it'll take them a long time to get here. Me and Ramon went ahead." said Clex. Suddenly, a portal opened. Reinforcements have arrived. "Ok then, how dd all this start?" asked Luna. "Yes, how did this problem all start?" asked Celestia. "Well, Discord apparently feels dejected because all the ponies here still are unsure whether to trust him or not, even though he really did change for the good." said Dusk. "Now he waged a full out war. He has billions of clones and the entire changeling race with him. Even a few dragons joined his team." "Well then. Do you think we will be enough?" asked Clex motioning to the entire Equestria2 "army." "Hopefully." said Dusk, still a little worried. "Don't worry, we got this." said Clex. "Only one way to find out..." said Dusk. With that, the entire army moved over to their newly assigned areas. The tide has changed, but for how long?
