20 minutes had passed. Discord's team of villiany had arrived to fight the Elements. His team included Discord in his pitch black car. There was not even a reflection on its dark paint. Clyde Pie, Inky Pie, Blinky Pie, and Granny Pie were all packed in a black buggy, trying to keep it old fashioned. The car had no indication that it would go faster than a snail. The Diamond Dogs shared a gray, boring car, the only flair were a few diamonds painted on the car. Gilda was in a brown and white car, nothing really added to it that could be considered notable. The Flim Flam Brothers were in a modified Super Cider Squeezy 6000, which they named the Super Racer Speedy 7000. It was also much, much smaller to be considered a car. Iron Will was in a dark blue pick up, still looking incredibly strong. They were revving up their cars.
--------------------------------------------------------
Fluttershy had awoken by this time and yawned, now fully aware and as ready as she would ever be (she wasn't). She looked over and saw Iron Will at the wheel of his pick-up. She got out of the car, going over to him, knocking on his door. He looked out his window and saw the shy little girl and scoffed, "What do you want?" he asked angrily.
"Mr. Will... why are you racing for Discord? You're not evil...," she said shyly, looking up at him.
"That's a good question shy one! You see, Iron Will is tired of people not paying for his lessons! Saying they were not satisfied! I'm here to collect!" he said.
"Oh... I see...," she said, "Are you sure that that's a good reason to possibly destroy Equestria though?"
"What happens to Equestria does not concern me. I plan on going back home when I receive my money."
Fluttershy walked back to their car after this, sighing, wondering what happened to such a strong willed man.
--------------------------------------------------------
Applejack went over to the Flim Flam brothers, glaring angrily, wanting to shoot them with her shot gun. She wouldn't however, she knew better. She still slammed her hand on their car and glared at them, "What are ya doin' here?" she asked, she was almost spitting fire in her speech.
The two looked up at her and laughed, "Well if it isn't little Applejack?" Flim said in between laughs.
"Well if you must know," Flam began, catching his breath, "We are here to run the monopoly of all sales! Money money money!"
"That'll NEVER happen on my watch," she said, lifting her fist up from the car and storming back, hopping in the girls' car, picking up her shot gun, pointing at them, then at her gun. She put her finger to her neck and made a slicing motion.
--------------------------------------------------------
Rainbow Dash just knew why Gilda was there, she didn't even bother going over to her. She knew that she wanted revenge for her embarassment a year ago. Gilda would have to suffer that same fate again, she was just certain.
--------------------------------------------------------
Rarity also knew exactly why the Diamond Dogs were there. If they had their way, all the gems in Equestria would belong to them, work horses a plenty, no one could say no either. They would have free reign.
--------------------------------------------------------
Pinkie however, was the only one that didn't know, nor did she want to know why her family was in the race. She just knew that they wanted something. Something with her. Something she would never know because she vowed to never talk again. She just moped in her seat, keeping herself from crying.
--------------------------------------------------------
Twilight went to Discord, hoping to have a respectable conversation with him. One conversation she knew would never happen. Discord looked over at her, "Well well, if it isn't Twilight Sparkle. Have you come to surrender?" he asked, laughing when he was finished.
"You know we would never surrender, and you know that you're going to lose," she said.
"Oh, I wouldn't be so sure, I am the God of Chaos after all!" he said, "It would take a lot of skill to defeat me."
"And we have that skill Discord, you're going to lose, I promise you this!"
"We shall see.... Good luck Twilight Sparkle, you're going to need it."
Twilight went back to her car as Mayor Mare went up to the starting line, "The race begins in thirty seconds! Everyone get into your vehicle." she said.
They all did so, Mayor getting up, holding the flag in her hand, preparing to wave it.
"On your mark!" she exclaimed, the cars starting.
"Get set!" The cars began to rev up.
"GO!" Mayor Mare brought the flag down as the cars drove off at blazing speeds, including the Pie's buggy.
