The Apocalypse

Atop a lonely mountain in the far western parts of Equestria, four equines stood gazing upon the land that they had desired to destroy for centuries.

War scoffed in annoyance, "That foolish draconequus, it makes me sick knowing that we were cut from the same cloth as him."

"He's certainly changed for the worst," Pestilence added giving a sickly cough before continuing, "bending the knee to those naive alicorn princesses'."

"It's such a shame," Famine began slightly frowning, "I was hoping that he would accept our proposal, it's not the same when we use to be whole."

"It matters not brothers," Death said walking towards the edge of the base of the mountain, "whether it takes a month, a year, a decade, a century, or even a millennium, we will spread the apocalypse across Equestria."

The spirit of death gave a sinister laugh as red eyes began to glow in his empty eye sockets, "And Discord will suffer the consequences for his decision."

The other spirits also gave sinister laughs as well as their forms began to fade away, carried along with the wind.

Author's Note:

This was a one shot that I wanted to do for a long time. An interesting take on some of Discords past and his relation with the Four Horses of the Apocalypse.

Thanks for reading! :D

Sorry about last night, I passed out because it was near 1am. Can't wait to read this!

That’s perfectly alright. Thank you for taking the time to read it! :)

In strange aeons yet to come even death itself may die... H.P. Lovecraft

In other words they have no ideal how badly they're about to fuck up because you can't get more strange than Discord.

Well that really all depends, Discord has no power over them just as they have no power over him. The Four Horses of the Apocalypse are the spiritual embodiment of what they represent. They may succeed, they may fail, but they'll never stop. Discord can help prevent an apocalypse but he can't stop them from doing what they please.

If that makes sense.

If you haven't seen the season finally yet stop right here. He could simply get the elements of harmony and the pillars of hope to open the hole to limbo and boot their tails in so they can keep the pony of shadows company for all of eternity.

Honestly I left the future of the story vague and any number of things could happen. So even that could also happen. Or its an alternative universe. You decide! Any outcome is the right outcome! :D

Then I go with my answer with an extra twist of Discord pumping in Pinkie Pie's Parasprite Polka being performed on kazoos by 100,000 foals on an infinite loop:pinkiehappy:
