The thing about endings is that they are so seldom really endings. Far more often, they are actually beginnings. So should they really be called "endings" at all?

E

Discord is awakened by all of the drama from the changeling attack on Shining Armor's and Princess Cadance's wedding. Twilight Sparkle can't shake the whispers in the back of her head causing her to doubt her friends and family. Will Shining Armor and Cadance ever get to say 'I Do'? And what will become of Equestria?
Probably Chaos...

Well this seems interesting! :twilightsmile:

This is excellent!

Appledash? You mean Applejack right?

"Twilight!" a group of voices shouted as five excited ponies and one ecstatic little dragon burst into the room. Appledash, Rarity, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie and Spike all looked around the room for their purple friend, only for their happy faces to change into confused frowns.


:ajbemused::rainbowderp:...SHIPPED!:pinkiehappy:

6109201 oops:facehoof: my bad. This isn't a shipping story. Thanks for pointing that out. I better fix that before they mutiny.:applejackconfused::rainbowderp:

6109261 Sorry to disappoint. That was actually a typing error.:twilightsheepish:

6105678 Thank you.:heart: It makes me happy to see fellow bronies (or Pegasisters) enjoying my stories.:twilightsmile:

You know, you did a good idea of a "what if the changeling invasion woke up Discord" story. After all, having a bunch of changelings buzzing around all over the place is a chaotic disaster, isn't it? Remember, Discord could either be freed from his stone prison with the elements of Harmony (as seen in "Keep Calm and Flutter On"), or from surrounding chaos (as seen in "The Return of Harmony, Part 1").

6116201 Thank you!:heart: I'm glad you like the story so far. I hope it lives up to your expectations. I actually wasn't planning on using Discord originally, but as I was writing he just popped in and it seemed to fit so I kept going! I'm glad I did. It's a much better story this way.
(And Discord is really fun to write!):twilightsmile:

6116224 You don't have to worry about impressing me----just keep up the good work ;)

6116201
The chaos was only able to make the last push to free discord because the elements were no longer bonded to the ones who imprisoned him. If the main six hadn't freed him, he'd have stayed locked up until at least the main six were dead.

6116389 What about the sad moment at the wedding reception? Wouldn't it symbolize the elements being torn apart? Surely, that would give Discord a good amount of energy to break out of his stone prison.

6116430
The mane six were still the bearers of the elements after the wedding, so no, they never lost their connection like Celestia and Luna did.

Well, remember in the reception room, how those five acted like the exact opposites of the elements of harmony they're bearing? Rarity got greedy for the joy of helping put on a wedding, fluttershy was mean to twilight, pinkie made no effort to cheer twilight up, rainbow dash, when she chose to be loyal to Chrysalis, betrayed twilight at the same time, basically stabbing her in the back. As for applejack, who states herself as a supportive friend, proved that all that was a lie, considering that all she cared about was planning a wedding, instead of friendship. Don't forget the heartbreak twilight felt when her own brother and mentor turned their backs on her. That was a moment where DISHARMONY was shrouding the air. And the wickedness of chrysalis and the changelings lurking throughout canterlot added to it as well. All what happened during that fateful rehearsal night and the changeling invasion served as good foundations for Discord's release by the time this story started.

6116564 To Lotrprincess21 and fwelin:
Whoa I didn't expect an argument over this! Should I be flattered or concerned? By the way my response is:
Twilight felt betrayed by her friends and family. She couldn't just forgive them. The trust was broken. Besides there was plenty of chaos all over Equestria. Love chaos, That's the best kind. Discord fed off of the chaos caused by the wedding and the betrayal and the final battle was the surge he needed to get free. Also - my story = my rules:rainbowwild:
Thanks for reading!:heart::pinkiehappy:

6116564 You understand this story so well. Have an Applejack:ajsmug:

Sorry, MeadowRosePony, i didn't mean to make any trouble. :fluttershysad:

6116465 fwelin, I'm sorry I gave you a hard time with my opinion on how discord got released. Tell you what, let's quit it with the discord-infested bickering and go back to being harmony loving bronies/pegasisters who love reading my little pony fanfiction. In other words, let's call it a truce and get back to enjoying the story.

6116607 Don't worry. A little harmless debating never caused trouble. I actually enjoyed reading the comments. You both made really good points. I'm flattered that you enjoyed the story enough to take the time to debate about it!:heart:

6116465
I think you're overlooking the fact that in this story, Discord never broke free in Season 2. So he was still due for it (overdue as the case may be). He could never convince Twilight so easily to side with him if Return of Harmony had happened. So yes, the chaos of the wedding would have been more than enough to free him, because he'd never been re-sealed by the Mane 6 in the first place.

Can I add something, I bet for a fact that Discord will use Twilight's pain to manipulate her against her friends.

I have a hunch that the flower Discord put in Twilight's mane was from a PLUNDERSEED plant. Anyone who is familiar with the whole "Twivine Sparkle" phenomenon will know what I mean.

6204864 oh crap will this turn into a Twivine story...I like to read that.

6207011 Furthermore, don't forget that it was Discord who planted the plunderseeds years ago when Celestia and Luna first defeated him. Considering that he noticed that the plunderseeds didn't sprout up quicker than he thought, he decided in his revenge plan to turn Twilight against her friends, all while kicking up that plunderseeds plan up a notch.

I like this already!

Well Discord is right about one thing such violence against him. I mean shouldn't they have at least tried interrogating him

Oh wow this was a fun chapter! :pinkiehappy:

6249805 Thank You!:ajsmug: I had a lot of fun writing it. Even if a few parts didn't want to be written.:ajbemused:

I'm glad you liked it.:heart: I hope you keep reading and the rest of my story keeps up with expectations.

6204864 I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
Mwahahaha:pinkiecrazy:

Thanks for reading!:heart:

6221272 Why doesn't this site have a 'Discord Approves' Tag? I'd make it his face coming out of a thumbs up.

Thanks for reading!:heart:

6221179 I'm glad you like it. Thanks for reading!:heart:

6135468 My thoughts exactly.

Okay actually my thoughts were a lot more scattered and twisted than that but you summed it up nicely. Have an Applejack:ajsmug:

Thanks for reading!:heart:

6204864 I personally think that 'Twivine' is a pretty name.:heart:
Just a piece of random information.:pinkiehappy:
Thanks for reading, I can always count on you to comment and that makes me so happy.:heart:

I was parodizing a quote from Patton.

You are doing well with this.

I kinda want all those dolls now.

6285545 I know, right?!:moustache:

Thanks for reading!:heart: MeadowRosePony

Wow..This whole thing makes me think of the Black Lady part of the original Sailor Moon series

-Twilight/Chibi-Usa went though a terrible invasion and were still suffering mentally from the events

-Both of them had some hand in the danger (In Twilight's case, Discord). But in their defence, their involvement was also caused by the fact they were treated rather poorly (Chibi-USA by her kingdom, Twilight by her family and friends)

-Neither weren't really comforted by anyone over what happened (Though in Chibi-Usa's case, the past Senshi had no idea, and the future squad was unavailable. Twilight, however, didn't get an apology from Shining or Celestia, and the one for Applejack only sounded half-hearted)

-Both of their families were in danger, and both only wanted to help them

-And now, both have been convinced their family and friends have never cared about them, complete with phony visions (Chibi-Usa's of scorn, abandonment, and lonelieness, Twilight's of her friends just eating cake, partying and having a good time without her, along with the infamous wedding rehearsal)

All that's left is the Alicorn transformation Discord mentioned

6294180 Wow...:applejackunsure:
That is one odd coincidence.
:heart:Thanks for reading!

No problem

Still Celestia needs to learn, and fast, she can't just not admit she was wrong and then not apologize and then continue to expect Twilight to listen to her after.

6297363 Exactly!
Seriously though, I think that was what made me the maddest about that episode's ending.
And I hated it when Celestia said,

"Now that you have so foolishly revealed yourself"

Seriously?!? When did Chrysalis "foolishly reveal herself"? Twilight and the REAL Princess Cadance revealed her!
Was Princess Celestia seriously implying that she would have believed FAKE Princess Cadance over REAL Princess Cadance and her own "faithful student"?!?
I mean, COME ON! HOW many times now has Twilight been proved right? Not to mention her and her friends having to constantly clean up messes that should fall under Princess Celestia's jurisdiction. IS ANYPONY ELSE SEEING THIS?!?

*Pant pant* Eh Hem...Okay... I'm done ranting. Thanks for letting me get that out of my system.
Have an Applejack:ajsmug:
:heart:Thanks for reading!

Also, Celestia's just being very thoughtless and doesn't seem to care about Twilight at all in this. All she did was

-tell Twilight her anger was blinding her (anger that was only the result of her NOT saying sorry), instead of trying to comfort her

-Not ACTUALLY doing anything to look for Twilight, as in, get off her seat and actually help instead of just relaying on her subjects while she sits and eats cake

-And in this chapter, she seems to be only scolding Twilight, even after the scene thing. And I bet if Twilight had let her speak, it would just the same thing from the first chapter-that her anger is blinding her. No attempt to comfort, no apologies, nothing. Just scolding Twilight for something that wasnt even her fault.

-And what does she say after Twilight runs off? "We would still beat you, even without Twilight" pretty much! News flash, she was taken down by a super charged queen, and couldn't do squat when Discord first got out! What was she thinking? Actually having Twilight replaced?

Ouch, well, Twilight does have a right to be upset, the way everybody doubted her. Nothing upsets a mare more than when her own friends and family won't believe her!
