Ponyville: The Chaos Capitol of the Word

Chapter 3: Ponyville, the Chaos Capital of the World

As Discord is rolling on the ground laughing, the corrupt Element Bearers begin to fight amongst themselves. Blaze’s eyes go wide as he realizes this was this world’s heart showed him, the Elements losing to Discord and fueling the Darkness. He gets up as he tries to, he feels very weak and Twi helps him up. Blaze thanks her for helping him and she uses a spell to help him endure the pain he feels. He still needs to use the Kiril but now, his pain is bearable. Twilight asks her friends what’s going on and Discord chuckles as he is eating popcorn whilst watching all of this on a three seater cinema bench:

“It’s just too entertaining.” He pops another kernel into his mouth. Twilight and Blaze march up and Twilight tells Discord:

“Stop it, Discord. You’re not playing fair!” Feigning shock, Discord says,

“I’m not playing fair? Perhaps we haven’t met; and seeing as you’ve made a new friend, I believe introductions are in order:” He gets up and introduces himself,

“I’m Discord, Spirit of Chaos and Disharmony? Hellloo!?” Blaze responds,

“Well, I’m Blazewing Inferno, Fire Elemental.” He turns to Twi,

“he didn’t play fair as that’s his nature.” Twilight angrily tells Discord,

“How were we supposed to find The Elements of Harmony when you took away the labyrinth before we could get to the end!?”

This surprises Discord and he breaks out into a laughing fit,

“Oh, wait. Did you...how funny! You thought that the Elements were in the labyrinth?” Blaze then ignites and yells,

“Could someone explain what in Karzahni is going on here?!” Discord then takes himself, Blaze and Twilight back in time as observers into a throne room where a regal Alicorn and the Element Bearers are listening to Discord, in the stained glass, give a riddle as to where he hid the Elements of Harmony:

Twists and Turns,

Are my Master Plan.

Then, find The Elements,

Back where you began.

Whisking the trio back to the present, Discord tells a slack jawed Twilight Sparkle and a pensive Blazewing Inferno,

“I never said they were in the labyrinth.” Twilight asks,

“But, but..?”

“Keep trying, you two. Maybe the ‘magic of friendship’ can help you.” Discord says mockingly, “Now! If you’ll excuse me, I have some Chaos to wreak.” He says, snapping his lion paw again and teleporting again to parts unknown.

Above the duo, thunder’s heard and cotton candy clouds form above the crater and began raining chocolate milk on the group,

“So, that’s what made that weird puddle from before.” Blaze said, as the irate Pinkie complains yet again and the infighting starts all over again. This is getting on Twi’s nerves as she is trying to figure out the riddle from before and Blaze pulls out a self-chilling thermos from his pack and collects the rain within it. Blaze closes his thermos and tries to use a mask of X-ray vision but decides against it as an angry and avaricious being is not something you tempt, unless you have a death wish.

Twilight expresses her desire to return to her home and then, it all came together: the riddle meant that the Elements were back at her home, in a town called Ponyville. They make it to the distant outskirts of Ponyville only to find...that the whole place has gone to Karzahni with selective gravity, cartoon antics and your general gist of cartoony, reality-law-breaking Chaos-complete with random day/night intervals, soap roads and so much more! Blaze says in his head, hoping Twi isn’t telepathic;

“Well, this is a veritable maelstrom of Chaos!”

Twilight runs ahead explaining her plan when rabbits with giraffe proportioned legs stampede over her.

“Good boy, Angel! Mama’s so proud!” Fluttershy says, indicating that the lead one was her pet bunny; then it randomly changes to night, and as the dirt roads turn into soap roads, AJ says with obvious sarcasm,

“Wow, I can see so much better now!” Promptly slipping and knocking over everyone and ending with a comedic,

“I meant to do that.” A random sunrise reveals the current state of the roads and Discord skates by saying,

“Beautiful, isn’t it? This is the new and improved Ponyville; and these are only my first changes.” gloating and reveling in his freedom from a millennium long petrification. Twi is dismayed at this.

“This may look like fun, but it’s not!” Pinkie says, as she skates past Twilight and Blaze. Twi groans and Blaze rolls his eyes and Discord appears from nowhere and puts his lion arm around Twilight and his eagle claw arm around Blaze. He raises them up and with pride and says,

“Picture it: The Chaos Capital of the World!” And with another random nightfall,

“I can’t picture anything, it’s too dark.” says Twilight annoyed.

“Eh, you can sorta make out the silhouettes of everything; I think.” Blaze says squinting.

“Well, wait a few minutes and you’ll see it in the beautiful light of day; or not.” Discord says after dropping the two and Blaze scrambles to keep his mask on. Discord jette’s over them and teleports off in a flash of light. Twilight gets up,

“Ponyville, the Chaos Capital of the World?” She asks and defiantly follows up with,

“Not if I have anything to say about it!” And Fluttershy ruins it with,

“don’t worry, you won’t.” as she skates past with a cruel laugh. Groaning, Twilight looks at Blaze as he is trying not to drop any embers as he flies above the road in order to avoid igniting everything.
