This story is a sequel to Mr. Disc

Once upon a time a retired art teacher, whose name is Mr. Disc, accidentally stumbled into a land of talking ponies called Equestria. He found out quickly that he was in a world where it was close to his own, where his boss was a Princess, some of his students were ponies and even met himself as a spirit of chaos... After a while, he returns home to find that he was able to keep his powers where he lived happily ever after.

Well... not quite yet.

A huge thank you to SecretBrony01 for proofreading this story.

With the Equestrian Girls movies out, taken place in a universe that everypony from Equestria is in human form, I've decided to do a thought experiment.

The following story has to do with their version of Discord (simply known as Mr. Disc), and what would happen if he had stumbled into the land of Equestria.

A huge thank you to his Highness PrinceCelestia for making the cover art.

In this one-shot idea, Fluttershy asks her friend Discord if he would be interested in taking up the job as a teacher at the new School of Friendship. Discord agrees to teach them something if he were given a chance to test-drive it by having a few students to see if he would take up the job. What follows is a lesson on the meditations of Reniegh Haycartes.

A special thank you to DuskHeart13, The Hat Man and SashimiPony for taking the time of proofreading this.

Note: this and its sequels were written before "Matter of Principles."

In a world ravaged by the living dead, one man has outlasted those with far more strength, speed, and experience. His only advantages are his uncanny luck and peculiar inspiration. This inspiration has never led him astray and even promises a fresh start. All he has to do is build a strange device that follows no earthly science.

While Earth’s story might be over, this cog-jockey’s has just begun.

The 1'st Russian Bear Cavalry Unit gets attacked by ponies who attempt to turn the humans into ponies. They inject the serum into all the bears, but are killed. The bears then turn into Ursa Majors and are still loyal to the humans. They then go on a rampage, meet Theodore Roosevelt, and kill every pony on Earth.
Dear Humanity,
We regret being equine bastards
We regret coming to Earth
And we most definitely regret that the Corps just blew up our raggedy ass base!

There exist tales of the Spirit of Fear. A tall, bipedal creature with no face, tendrils of darkness, and a suit so black that he blends in among the trees.

These tales still exist, although they are relegated to simply be fables to get children to behave. Even with the life-like statue of him in Canterlot, he is still seen as fiction.

The tales say he kidnaps ponies who walk through his woods, and eats them whole! The Princess herself says these tales are true! Yet, no matter what, you should never fear the name...

Slendermane.

As Celestia can attest, nothing is ever simple. A stallion may walk through a portal in a huff and everycreature may cheer his departure, but that doesn't make him any less of an important functionary in the greater scheme of things. And so, while the Princess of Friendship can handle the straightforward task of averting world war, Celestia must shoulder a heavier burden.

She has to convince a bureaucrat that he made a mistake.

You wake up next to Pinkie Pie, only to find out that some hide away the tears with a smile.

Hidden thoughts away from public eyes, hidden talks behind closed doors.

A smile can mean many things, but understanding can save a life.
