//------------------------------// // Revelations // Story: Not Again! // by Dreadnought //------------------------------// “Discord!” yelled Big Mac. “Hello Big Mac,” replied the draconequus sheepishly. “Discord!  You’re behind this!” “Actually....”  Stepping out from behind Discord was Applejack.  “...I’m responsible.  I asked him to do it.” “What!” “I’m sorry big brother,” she said, staring at the ground to avoid having to look Big Mac in the eyes. “Applejack?” questioned Celestia. She looked up.  “I love my brother.  I want him to be happy.  He doesn’t have a special somepony and I didn’t want him to be alone on Hearts and Hooves Day.  So I asked Discord to make him more attractive to mares.  I didn’t realize things would – get so out of hoof.” “Discord,” scolded Celestia.  “Applejack may have asked you, but you should have said no.” “Well,” began Discord. “He didn’t want to,” explained Applejack.  “But I kept asking him until he agreed to it.” Big Mac approached Applejack.  “Ah’m glad you care so much for me, but you shouldn’t interfere.  Ya know the chaos last year.” “Last year?” asked an eager Discord.  A glare from Celestia quickly quieted the draconequus. “I know,” said Applejack. “Ah forgive ya,” said Big Mac. The two siblings hugged. “Well, I’m glad this is over.  It is over, right Discord?” asked Celestia. “I’ve removed all chaos magic from Big Mac.  Any attraction mares have to him are based solely on his natural charms.” Celestia looked at the group.  “Well Big Mac, you must be hungry?” “Eeyup.” “Let’s get you back to Sweet Apple Acres,” said Applejack.  “Granny and I will start makin’ a big ol’ supper for you.” “No need Applejack,” said Celestia.  “I will have dinner made by the royal chefs and brought to Sweet Apple Acres.” “We can’t ask you to do that,” said Big Mac. “Of course we will,” said Luna. The two siblings looked at each other.  “Would ya like to come to dinner?” asked Applejack. Celestia said, “Yes.  And I’m sure Discord would like to join us as well?” “Me?” asked the draconequus.  “I mean, I suppose I could rearrange my schedule to attend,” he said as he attempted to seem disinterested. “Now then,” continued Celestia.  “I don’t think you want to walk back to Ponyville.  We will transport you there now.”  In a moment, four ponies and a draconequus were transported away in a bright flash.
