Mana Spark in Equestria

by James Fire


Blue blood does not save you from pranks

"Peekaboo!"

"Oh, hiya Mana Spark!" Note to self, Pinkie Pie is immune to scaring.

"Run Discord! We've been discovered!"

Discord pops his head out of a nearby bush, and does a double take. "We have! Hurry, get away!" He starts running on the spot, digging a hole into the ground. Realizing that this isn't working, he snaps his talons, and disappears with a poof!

I, on the other hand(hoof?), just run. We meet up at our designated 'safe spot', which should be safe, but you never know with Pinkie Pie.

Staying quiet for several minutes, we begin to relax. Until a wild Pinkie appears! We vacate the premises, going to our next hideout. The first one was really only an emergency one, just a clearing in some bushes. This one though, was much better. An expertly camouflaged treehouse deeps in the Whitetail woods, even the CMC hadn't found it (and destroyed it) yet. We should be safe to wait it out here.

"Just in case though, do we have a Pinkie Pie distraction ready?"

He produces a pink balloon. "Yes we do. Ready?" I nod, and he releases it.

We hear a squeal, and a very high-pitched voice. "Oooh! Get the balloon!"

Now that the pink blur is out of our hair, we can continue. "Well, you know this place better than I do. Who is next?"

"Nearly time for my daily pranking of Prince Blueblood. Want to help?"

An evil smile spreads across my muzzle. "Let's loosen him a bit."

And so, we appear in Discord's rooms in Canterlot castle. I suppose Celestia is very gracious and doesn't want him appearing in random rooms all the time. Probably the latter more than the former where Discord is concerned.

Since he said it was 'daily pranking', I wonder what he had in mind today. "Daily? How long have you been doing this?"

He waved it off as unimportant, "Only a few months. Since you are here, I think you can come up with the prank. What have we got?"

"Well, from what little I know of him, he is arrogant, hates being even the slightest bit dirty, and is not at all patient. I think it's time for a bit of magically-enhanced dye. He shouldn't be able to remove it by scrubbing or minor magical interference, but it doesn't last that long either."

"Sounds perfect! Let's get just an eye dropper of it, and slowly polka dot his face."

"You are truly evil."

"I try."

Collecting and creating all the ingredients took a bit of time, what with me still getting the hang of Chaos magic, but the results were great. We set up out trap in one of the hallways that Discord swore he passed through everyday, and soon would. Then we waited.

And waited.

And waited.

Discord was growing slightly impatient. "How long has it been!?"

"Two minutes."

"Oh."

We then hear footsteps, and I ready the spell to trigger our paintball syringe.

Blueblood comes around the corner, and I trigger the trap.

He is mildly surprised at first, just feeling wet spots on his face and neck, but then starts squealing once he passes a mirror placed in the hallway. "What has been done!? Some pony has ruined my magnificent facade! AUNTIE TIA!"

"We should probably go, before Celestia gets here."

Discord, having done this before, agrees. "Yes, let's go. Take the trap though."
