Applejack kicked a ball to her dog, Winona. Winona bunted the ball back to Applejack. Twilight was laying on a blanket in the grass. Her pet owl, Owlowiscious, circled above her head. Rainbow Dash flew around in the sky with her propeller-equipped pet turtle, Tank. Fluttershy sat with Twilight with her pet bunny, Angel, along with Rarity, her pet cat Opalescence, and Pinkie and her toothless pet alligator, Gummy. It was just a normal day in Equestria when one of trees nearby bent over 180-degrees.
"What the..." said Twilight, noticing it. "What's wrong with the tree?"
Just then all the grass around them sunk into the ground, leaving only dirt.
"What's happening?" asked Rarity. "This is just terrible! Dirt everywhere!"
"What happened to all the grass?" asked Fluttershy.
"Oh, no." said Twilight. "Tell me it isn't--"
"Isn't who?" asked a familiar voice.
The ponies looked around but couldn't see anyone.
"That voice." said Rarity. "It sounds so familiar."
"Indeed it should." said the voice. "For we met only a few months ago when you defeated me."
"Discord!" said Twilight. "Show yourself!"
"Oh, why spoil the fun right away?" asked the voice. "I have so much planned for Equestria. And I think I'll start with the princesses."
"You leave them alone!" yelled Twilight.
"Why would I do that?" asked Discord. "Chaos is so much fun."
"Your idea of fun, maybe." said Twilight.
"I don't know, Twilight." said Pinkie Pie. "That chocolate rain was delicious."
"Oh, Pinkie Pie." said Discord. "You were always my favorite one."
"Listen, Discord!" yelled Twilight. "No matter what you do, we'll just stop you all over again! You even turned us on each other and we STILL beat you!"
"Now, there's a point." said Discord. "But what if it only took two to corrupt?"
"Two?" asked Twilight. "Out of six?"
"I'm not talking about you, Twilight Sparkle. I'm talking about Celestia."
Twilight and the others gasped in shock.
"You wouldn't!" yelled Applejack. "Turning the princesses against each other would d--"
"Destroy Equestria." Discord finished. "Eternal chaos." He let out a booming laugh.
"We won't let you." said Rainbow Dash.
"Oh, just try and stop me." said the voice. "I can be there in two seconds."
"And so can we." said Twilight.
She closed her eyes and concentrated her magic to perform the teleportation spell. But nothing happened. She opened her eyes.
"What's going on?" she asked.
"Uh, Twilight?" said Applejack. "Your horn?"
"What about it?" she asked feeling her head. She let out a gasp. "My horn!"
Discord laughed again.
"Don't you remember the rules of last time? No magic."
"That's cheating!" yelled Rarity.
"What can I say?" said the voice. "I'm Discord. I AM chaos."
The tree that had bent over returned upright and all the grass grew back.
"He's gone." said Rarity.
"And I think I know where he's headed." said Twilight. "Let's move, girls!"
They all took off running towards Ponyville.
