Pranking Spike
Ready to face the adorable mess that are ponies, I summon my unicorn illusion again. I do not need the kind of attention that goes with being an alicorn. As well, I also put up my illusion shield, don't want the illusion broken. Hmm, my backpack no longer fits on my back nicely. Saddlebags? I have seen them, I guess I could make some. Dumping out my backpack, and picking up a translucent black crystal, I concentrate, pulling mana out of the crystal to cast the reformation spell. Looking at the saddlebags in front of me, I see that they are perfect for my purposes. Strapping them on, I then place all the runes I had dumped out into the saddlebags, as well as a bar of gold and a smaller bar of platinum on opposite sides. Good to be prepared to pay for anything, anywhere.
Prepared for the journey, I cast a teleportation spell to place me in Twilight Sparkle's castle. I look around to see the dragon from before staring at me, wide-eyed. And just for the laughs.
"Take me to your leader."
The little dragon runs away screaming.
Popping out of nowhere, Discord comes in. "Oh, good one. Could have done a better job on the voice change, but good one." Sighing, I turn around to face him.
"What do you want? And why do you keep following me?" He obviously knows who I am. He snaps his talons, and my illusion disappears.
"I knew it! You can't hide anything from me!" He does a small victory dance, including summoning a mini orchestra and stage on which to do it. And the cast is all clones of him. He then answers my questions. "I already told you, you are not supposed to be here. Hence, I must convince you to leave."
"I know I'm not supposed to be here, but I can't leave yet, my ship isn't fixed. And besides, there is knowledge here that don't have. I must learn it all." I prepare the same banishment spell I used before.
"Hey! No need for that! I can help!"
I ask, interested, but keeping the banishment spell ready, "And how can you help? I see that you use a method of casting I don't know, so I would love to learn that, but aside from that. What can you teach me?" He sees his chance to avoid being banished, and promptly tackles it with vigor.
"Well! I am the oldest being on this planet. So I know much of its history, as well as being able to go to any point in time or space. So I could find anything you wanted." I have now powered down my horn, releasing the spell in the process. Discord visibly relaxes when I let go of the spell. He brings in a chair to flop down on.
"But no dismissing my illusion. How do you think the ponies would take it if another alicorn just showed up? Not only that, but one that the princesses did not help make. And I still have a conversation to have with Twilight Sparkle. So shoo for now." Discord appears immensely relieved that I am not going to banish him, going so far as to remove a literal weight from his shoulders.
He has one last question for me though. "How did you know they were made alicorns?"
"I know the signs of magical manipulation of the base genetic code, I have done it many times before, mostly to myself." I give him a small smile, more of a smirk, as I see his jaw drop. Shaking my head, I walk into the castles library. Being here before really helped, I was able to construct a partial mental map of the place, and as such, know where the library is located. It seems to be the best place to start, even if I have to translate the horse words first.

interesting premise, but the chapters are much too short.
generally, the writing is okay but lacks polish... it feels like a draft rather than a finished work.

It is a draft, I will try to improve it later. And the chapters are short because I feel a very strong need to have them relevant to the chapter title throughout the whole chapter. I am going to try to make longer ones, but I promise nothing. Except more horse words, I do promise that.

Poor Spike though, right?
