Twilight Sparkle has always been frustrated with Discord. His ability to do anything, with no more effort than a snap of his claw. It shouldn't be possible. His power had to come from somewhere.
Then, one day, Twilight lets slip how she feels. Surprisingly Discord agrees to explain it to her. To give her the secret to all of his powers. If she's willing to pay the price that knowing it all will bring.

When Twilight was younger, she would sometimes be privately tutored when Celestia was occupied. Once a professor attempted to teach Twilight Military Strategy. It didn't go well.

They fell from the sky, only to have their landing broken by flowers carefully tended to by a crystal pony. The pony was scared away. They were scared stiff, but there was no running. The pony world they found themselves in was very real. Their choices would count against them...

I will try to keep it interesting and amusing. Think I did a good or bad job? Let me know! I love comments, loving or scathing, just speak.

Will Luna overthrow Celestia? (not really)
Will Fluttershy appear in this story? (...)
Will Cutie Mark Crusaders... ? (no)
Am I supposed to treat this seriously? (its a parody, geez)
What about Derpy? (its her fault she's not in the story)
I hate Power Rangers, dislike! (where's the question?)
Will you burn in hell for this fic? (no, I'll burn in hell for other crimes)
