The Return of Har-meow-ny
Part 5
[Ponyville]
A trail of rainbow fire ran down the center of the road through town. Some ponies understandably panicked at this, though most simply wondered what Rainbow Dash had managed to pull off this time.
A few of them wondered where the screaming had come from as what ever this was blew through town.
One pony, who read too many sci-fi books, wondered if Dash had just come from the future or the past.
Some were arguing whether the cart was red or blue, though that argument was found to depend on whether the watcher had seen it coming or going.
Some even took note that the fire trail was leading up the road to Sweet Apple Acres.
The majority however, were rather concerned at the sudden appearance of pink clouds in the sky around the town.
The Flower Trio, were already in their dooms day bunker.
Not that that would help.
Pinkie Pie glared angrily down at Rainbow Dash as she leaned over the edge of the wagon that was stuck in an apple tree. Rainbow Dash simply hung from the harness limply her head spinning from the impact.
“Consarnit Dashie, when I say whoa, I mean WHOA!!” Pinkie Pie shouted, a large collection of apple leaves plastered to her face making it look like she had a awesome beard and mustache.
The others were all already on the ground waiting for Twilight to disenchant the spell.
Fluttershy and Rarity were strewn out on the grass trying to make the world stop spinning.
Twilight was trying to focus enough to cancel the shrink spell.
Spike was laughing and going on about how awesome the ride had been.
Rahs was hugging the ground having used two of the air sick bags on the way over.
Applejack had already recovered, and had chosen the large stick she was going to use on the rainbow colored pinata that had crashed into one of her trees. She was just waiting to get big enough again to wield it and reach the dangling pegasus.
“Okay, every one ready? I think I have this now.” Twilight stammered, her horn glowing bright. The spell quickly popped every one back to their proper sizes, though Fluttershy pouted a little as the tiny Rahs had been like an adorable puppy when he was shrunk even smaller than they others were.
“Thank yah kindly fer that Twilight.” Applejack grinned, swinging her stick over her head. With one hard thwack, Rainbow Dash let out a yelp. The stick slapped the harness clasp popping it open and dropping the dizzy pegasus to the ground with a thud.
“Ow...” Dash muttered.
“Sorry AJ, I put on the brakes and they broke.... I didn't think they were supposed to do that.” Pinkie Pie chimed up as she hopped down out of the tree, shaking the leaves from her face.
“Alright, every one okay?” Twilight asked getting a chance to look around now that her head stopped spinning. “ And Dash when I say no loop de loops or barrel rolls, I mean no loop de loops and barrel rolls.”
“I will be fine in a moment darling. But remind me never to do that again.” Rarity chimed in.
“Sure Rarity. Don't do that again.” Pinkie Pie chimed in getting a glare from the white mare.
“Right, if we're all good we need to hurry to get to the library. I have an idea where the Elements may be, but I need to make sure so we can end this.” Twilight stated.
“Really? End it? But it's just getting started.” Discord stated softly in Twilight's ear.
The purple mare shrieked, shooting straight up in the air and whirling in place to land facing Discord.
Standing before her was a creature that towered over the group, including Rahs.
It was mostly brown furred, with the sandy brown head of a horse and a long darker brown serpent like body that made Twilight shudder. It's tail turned into a red scaled dragon tail with pink spines and a white puff of hair on the end like a feather duster. It's left leg was a light brown hooved limb like a donkey, while the rear right leg was of some sort of green lizard. Two wings sprouted from it's back, one seeming to be from a dark blue pegasus the other from a purplish thestrial. It's right foreleg was some sort of large tan cats and it's left was a yellow griffon claw. It had a black zebra like mane running up the back of it's head and neck and the odd head was capped off with a white deer antler and a wavy sky blue goat horn. A pair of missized yellow eyes with red pupils sat under two different sized bushy white eyebrows and a pair of rabbit like ears sprouted from either side of the head. A grin crossed the creatures features showing a large snaggley tooth poking out of the right side of it's mouth, and the whole thing was topped off with a scraggly goatee of white hair that barely seemed attached to his chin.
“Oh wow. Princess Celestia has really weird taste in stallions.” Pinkie Pie commented.
“Now that's just rude. I'll have you know I am a very handsome example of my kind.” Discord pouted putting the griffon claw to his chest as if he had been wounded.
“And what exactly are yah?” Applejack questioned.
“I am a Draconequss, thank you very much. Don't they teach anything in schools now a days.” Discord pouted his gaze darting around the small group. “And all this from a group who decided to run out on my game. I really shouldn't be surprised. For shame. That too was very rude you know.”
“Hardly, we solved your game and we're on our way to win it!” Spike snapped.
Discord whirled. Bending over to look Spike in the eye.
“Really boy, you think this is some sort of game?” Discord questioned while Spike glared back at him.
“You need to work on your intimidate skill. And you said it was a game.” Spike stated crossing his arms.
“Spike, stop trying to anger the chaos god!” Twilight hissed.
“Please, I stared down Nightmare Moon, and he's just an over grown chimera. That's a challenge rating 6 at best. I'm a dragon, a CR 8 , I got this.” Spike smirked.
“This isn't O&O.” Twilight growled face hoofing.
“Ahh perhaps if I was a normal one, but what happens if you add awakened, mythic, and most of the Tome of Deitys templates to a normal chimera?” Discord grinned floating on his back nose to nose with Spike as the Draconequss slowly spun in the air like a rotisserie chicken.
Spike considered a moment. “That would put your CR at least at a twenty, just from mythic.”
“Still think you got this?” Discord grinned flicking one of the dragonlings head spikes..
Spike met his eyes and grinned back. “Probably not, but that was if it was a head to head challenge. I'm just the distraction.”
“BORK!” Rahs snapped leaping over his brother at Discord, only for the creature to poof out of existence and leave a large kiddie pool of banana pudding for the Moon Dog to crash into instead.
“Ooh good try. “ Discord cackled appearing on the other side of Spike before pushing the small dragon into the kiddie pool of pudding as well. “But that is far from a new trick, and I know all the tricks. The game is still on Bearers. Only now I think I'll just use your little town as my challenge grounds.”
Discord slapped his hands together and a wave of multicolored energy flooded out from them flowing over everything before arching off into the distance.
The group winced, though looking around there didn't seem to be any sort of change.
“Ummm...... What the heck did yah do, ain't nothing changed around here.” Applejack asked. “Not that I'm complaining.”
“That's because I don't plan to do anything to this farm. After what your Granny did at the gala I figure I owe her enough to leave her property alone... at least until I get a hold of some of that Zap Apple cider.“ Discord admitted. “ But everything else..........”
Discord spun suddenly as Rahs lunged at him again, the Draconequss suddenly dressed as a matador with a red cape that he whirled before Rahs as he moved. The sound of tearing brought his attention down to the cape as Rahs passed , the whole thing torn to shreds.
“BARK!” Rahs ordered as he whirled on Discord again.
“Don't have to tell me twice!” Pinkie Pie shouted shoving Fluttershy ahead of her as Twilight grabbed Spike out of the pool before starting to gallop off.
The three who didn't understand the order to run still followed suit catching the meaning easily.
“Oh dear, how noble. But I didn't plan to include Lulu's pet corgi in this little game.” Discord whirled dodging another lunge before popping up right in front of the Moon Dog as he turned to go after the Draconequss once again.
“Boop!” Discord grinned poking Rahs in the nose.
The effect was immediate, Rahs sat down hard, his eyes going vacant and his ears drooping as his navy fur turned more into gray scale, his amber eyes unfocusing as his tongue slipped to dangle out of his mouth rear legs going akimbo while his forepaws dropped to the ground before him keeping him upright.
Twilight immediately collapsed as well crashing to the ground and dropping the pudding covered Spike who rolled across the road before crashing into the grass and laying on his back.
“Heeeee, fun....” Spike muttered with a drawl that would make even Snips and Snails pause
“Twilight come on we've got to go!” Applejack rushed back to help her friend up.
“What's the point …. he's going to win any way....” Twilight grumbled not bothering to try and get up , her coat having adopted the same gray scale as Rahs.
“Spiky are you alright?” Rarity asked looking over the pudding covered Dragon slightly reluctant to touch him.
“Hmmm pretty.” Spike babbled looking at Rarity.
“Oh dear.” Fluttershy flinched.
“What did you do to my friends!!!?” Dash screamed out at Discord only stopped from charging him by Pinkie Pie grabbing her tail.
The Draconequss looked as stunned as the others that Twilight and Spike had also changed. He quickly booped Rahs' nose again and the Moon Dog snapped back to his senses and took a swipe at him only to be booped in the nose again and to fall back into a stupor.
Spike sat up suddenly at the first boop.” What the heck was that?”
Boop
“Oooh pudding...” Spike stated, licking his arm.
Boop
“GAH!!! The book Pinkie found when we met look there!!!!” Twilight screamed out as her color returned before collapsing again as her color faded.” Or don't .. not like it matters....”
“By the stars it's a three for one sale!” Discord cackled …” Oh wait a moment there's another link in this chain.”
Pulling a mirror out of a pocket he didn't have, he took a look at what was going on back in the castle fun house.
“SHINING ARMOR YOU GET BACK HERE RIGHT NOW!!”Cadence screamed as she and a plethora of other mares, maids, and noble mares tore down the hall after the white unicorn stallion.
Said stallion was wearing a bit of lingerie on his head in a failed attempt to mask his grayed out features and a massive bag was being carried on his back that seemed to be filled with stockings, underwear and other naughty undergarments the castles mares tended to wear.
“What a haul what a haul.” Shining Armor sing songed as he pronked past a few other maids and female guards, his magic either flipping up skirts or pulling off certain parts of the armor as the perverted rampage continued.
“Colt works fast.” Discord nodded impressed.
Boop.
Discord flung the mirror off to the side where it shattered into a few dozen butterflies. The butterflies fluttered away from the impact quickly passing by some flowers and kicking up pollen. The pollen wafted through the under brush brushing over the nose of a snake sneaking up on a mouse for lunch making the serpent sneeze and causing the mouse to run off. The sound of a snake sneeze startled a group of nearby grazing cows. The cows panicked and ran off inciting a stampede. The stampede kicked up a massive cloud of dust that hid the sun over the Everfree resulting in a low pressure system which began forming a storm front as it moved over the Everfree. This created a massive thunderstorm that drifted over Las Pegasus, which caused Trixie Lulumoon to have to delay her show due to inclimant weather.
Boop.
“This is the greatest thing ever.” Discord cackled tapping Rah's nose like he was channel surfing watching how Spike was going from smart to dumb, and Twilight was flipping from motivated to not, in seconds.
Boop.
The other mares were glaring at him, though that anger seemed to quickly turn into fear. Clearly they were starting to grasp how out classed they were in this game.
Boop.
Of course he was going to win this, and he was going to show Celestia she shouldn't have turned him to stone like that.
Boop.
Seriously as if the break up wasn't bad enough, she had to make sure he couldn't even try to date any one else by making him a rock.
Boop.
Maybe if she had talked to him he wouldn't have needed to go to such exstream lengths to get her attention again, instead it was the cold shoulder and ignoring him. Sure maybe he went a bit too far, but still totally not his fault.
Boop.
Wow, those five were really scared now, absolutely terrified, the yellow one was even crying ….. seriously they shouldn't be that scared, he'd never killed any pony... directly.
Boop.
Wait, they weren't looking at him, they were looking behind him.
CHOMP!
Chomp? What happened to the cartoon like boop? There was supposed to be a comedic boop. Twilight and Spike were still grayed out so that meant Rahs was as well. Discord frowned, also noting his hand felt odd.
Bringing it up in front of him Discord looked down to notice something peculiar about his hand.
Which was of course, that it wasn't on the end of his arm where he had left it. The lion paw ended in a nub that had teeth marks like some pony had taken a bite out of a cheese block.
He blinked turning to look back and noticed his gaze was level with a gray furred chest.
A super buff gray scaled chest in a partially shredded green long coat.
His mismatched gaze rose up a bit more to a maw filled with immense sharp teeth, teeth that were currently chewing on his former hand like it was taffy before it was quickly swallowed in a flicker of chaos magic. Traveling up a little more he was met with glowing red eyes.
The creature behind him had been one he had been much taller than to start with, though at the moment it was bigger than he was. The fur on it might have once had a blue tinge but now it was faded more towards a grayish purple. The beast was bulky and all of it looked like muscle, Discord expected the creature could have bench pressed Canterlot. It's fur seemed some what matted and rose into spikes along the back of it's head and and neck giving it a horned and hedge hog spiked look about it's hackles. The maw of it didn't seem to close properly as there were far to many teeth in it and the muscles of it's jaw had hardened up and become more prominent giving the creature more of a bully box like head. The long ears were flat to the back of it's head and it's much longer tail whipped wildly behind it snapping the air like a whip. the little balls of light at the end of each ear and the tail the only thing unchanged about the creature.
The low rumbling growl came from it's throat, the sound rattled fillings in Discord's teeth that he didn't even have.
“This is new.” Discord commented to himself as the mares had grabbed Spike and Twilight and had already run from the Witch Wolf.

And this folks is the reason you do not hurt Rahs' family.
9165122
More accurately . This is the reason you don't over dose a Moon Dog on magic faster than he can process it.
Yup. It'sa gonna be nasty soon. Its Hugo all over again.
Welp, Discord is now officially a dog teething toy
Just don't die. That'd be a dick move
Really though, good luck with the hurricane.
Aren't you getting evacuated by around noon or so?
Also, nice to see Luna's plan on dealing with Discord during her Nightmare Moon Rampancy still works.
oh my that what a witch wolf look like, now that scary, also discord you may want to get stone again.
One one hand, Discord has some respect and honor to him.
on the other, he was completely cheating by disabling twilight like that.
Also, shining cannot get a break... or he's getting all of them...
9165162
that colt works fast,
also discord break all 3 in one go is against the rule now u most pay the piper, just send the dragon and rah somewhere far far away like where the crystal empire going to show up.
9165134 9165122
what the difference???
9165193
One's more technical, the other sounds much more badass.
There is absolutely no way Luna isn’t aware of the transformation Rahs has just undergone…
…
…
It would be absolutely delicious if said transformation were to also partially travel through the link and cause additional changes in Spike, Shining Armor, and Twilight. Hello Midnight Sparkle!
I will find you
9165220
yes Zod i think we heard you right the first time
lol Shiny acting like Happosai stealing underwear and such when under Discords influence
9165212
let the midnight rise and just start abuse discord and play with him,
9165134 Remember kids, drugs are bad.
The story pic looks like one of the tameable cats on the nightelf island. Before Bliz burned that shit to the ground anyway.
9165212
In that case it wouldn't be the elements having to defeat discord but having to defeat the sparkle siblings... and in cadence's case some pervert stealing lingerie using dark magic up in the crustal empire...
I'm not surprised that Shining Armor with his paragon nature becomes a pervert the likes of Happosai.
It never does
That he did
... I have no air, but i must laugh
Uhm, no Discord they are probably looking at...
If you could just turn around
So a discorded Moon Dog is a Witch Wolf... Also, you might wanna run Dizzy
I believe the word you are looking for is rotisserie. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotisserie
I hopes Rahs flies us to he moon so we can play among the stars.
Did Rahs just Rage -shift into Super Sayan Rahs?
This might just end up being an alliance of the Element Bearers with Discord to stop Rahs from eating them all.
Hope you ride out the hurricane quite well.
Also I definitely can see Shining Armor turning into a combination of Happosai from Ranma 1/2 and Saeba Ryo from City Hunter.
And finally I can’t wait to see what happens to Twilight, Rahs, and Spike when Shining Armor once Queen Chrysalsis gets her mind control on, even if the link to the trio isn’t as strong as it is in the reverse.
I have a feeling his 'Gleaming Shield' side is responsible for this event, since she has been denied to spend her clothes shopping spree by her 'stallion' side.
I can sense an action-packed chapter coming... and it is going to be epic!
9165402
i had to google the correct spelling the first time and it seems spell check still got me.
9165578
NC
9165938
dude my place has a big arse bulls eye on the side of it.
Well, try not to die.
And park your car on high ground.
I love this sequel. So far, the events from the episodes were hilariously twisted.
And whooops, Rahs will get even more swag points for his new looks. Poor dude.
9165134
Because he becomes a Witch Wolf?
I see what you did there! Turning poor Shining into Happosai from Ranma 1/2!
9165926
Hey my home state, you be careful okay?
9165402
God I hope so. What if he meant erotic?
So you're in NC too?
9168518
Or SC/Southern+Costal VA
9168518
Yup
Nooo I need more!
What am I to do now ? Finally read through Fallout equestria ? Maybe scion of chaos as it's on read later list for years ?
Maybe I should instead do something productive like finding a job or learning japanese ?
9171830
While true, this seems more personal.
9170849 (I was making the refference)
And Wuten was the Flying spaghetti monster summoned by Discord within that story.
Fluttershy made him her pet.
Tis was all within a fight for the fate of equestria as pure evil Discord is often a thing.
Discord really needs to boop Twilight or Spike to return them to normal. A Witch Wolf is a very bad thing indeed. Hopefully he didn't just become a berserker.
9165310
I think it's actually a piece of a Night Elf in druid cat form. I also want to say that the artist is Blotch, but I could be wrong.
Rahs sounds like a combination of sonic and nergegante.
I can imagine Witch Wolf Rahs grabbing Discord by the neck with one paw and lifting him up off the ground to eye level and saying, "Tell me demi-god, do you bleed?"
On another note specifically aimed at our fine author, here's hoping that you made it through the storm well enough!
Wait... is that Rahs? Or is it a DIFFERENT Moon Dog that took a chunk out of Discord?
...
Ranma 1/2, eh?
She was going that fast, that it red shifted?
9186389
That would be a Rahs. A fucked up Rahs, but still a Rahs.
Alright, jump into season 2 of this things and, wow, really going for some major plot changes. At first was a bit....
but as things played out, it turned more into 
. Few things just felt, not so much 'wrong' as 'why'? Like why it was the Gala this time rather then the CMC, when nothing would really have changed to do that. (Though it never is made clear exactly what was going on, was the CMC bickering the final bit of chaos to break the seal, or was the weakening seal what made them more prone to bickering?)
Adding in Spike felt odd a bit, mostly for how things went. The story did a good job of foreshadowing it and setting up how Spike's genre savy and thinks in this way so as to change things like he did, so good job there. Just felt, a bit, not exactly 'fic-fic'y' but, maybe forced? Clunky? Yeah maybe clunky works best, in using that to change the plot. Part of that is, as we've discussed, this Spike feels more like latter season Spike then Spike as he was at this time. Granted it's also using established character traits, like playing O&O that weren't set then but make sense in hindsight to have been there, plus the changes to how the siblings grew up gave him more time to play and develop these skills. But I do love how it wasn't just saying Spike was smarter and he'd have fixed this if he'd been there the first time, but rather a case of him simply thinking in just the right way to deal with Discord due to.... yeah that is the mindset a lot of TTRPG playing will put you in. So, overall, good job on that.
One thing I was not a fan of was Discord's motivation. Not the idea of him and Tia having a history like that, there is enough subtext there I could fully see that having been a thing anyway, but rather how everything he does is almost obsessively about the break up. It's not that funny, it's creepy in not a fun way, and really makes him feel kind of pathetic. But also how everything negative about him is framed in it all being because of the break up, not, him being an amoral asshole who sees others as nothing but his personal toys, and whose only real desire is to be able to do whatever the hell he wants when he wants to. Anyway, notes.
Emu's are freaking dangerous, there is a reason there has only been one Emu-Human war,the Emu's won that one.
Can't argue with best gala ever.
"Rock thee like a hurricane".... I want an album of Luna singing rock songs!
Firefly refrences are never not a good thing.
She knows her sister too well, no bright fancy tactical monitors you'd only use for playing games!
Smart move Cadance, do not long think of the greatness of Doctor Choppy, less you begin feeling your own inferiority.
Pic's of Luna in that armor please!
Bursting the old clothing, an oldy but a goodie. And don't worry Tia, the cake just makes that rump all the better.
Also one other odd point is how... little anypony seems to care about Discord being free. He's treated more like some minor anoyance then, you know, the reality warping, amoral roving disaster he is at this point. This is post 'reform' Discord reactions, annoying, but mostly harmless, more or less. Not mind rape ponies to be your playthings and make their lives exist only at your whims that he is right now.
Also, why did Tia and Luna need Cadance to point out the Mane 6 can use the Elements?
Still for all the character motivations around Discord feel just, bizarre and not in the good Discordy way, the Discord humor was freaking on POINT. Now, someone go smack Pony-Ash for being an idiot.
And, the full name thing...... we've been over it but, again..... why is there this random idea that, dispite all actual evidence to the contrary, and not one hint of proof, ponies obviously must all follow western naming conventions and have this never at all in nine years mentioned second name, or all members of their family have theirs if they have one?
Have you accept the noodly wisdom of the Flying Spaghetti Monster?
Cadance wants that sexy window!Nice! Again, the humor is just sooo damn good in this whole episode.
Huh, not even in D&D is mind-altering magic alignment based, beyond maybe some specific spells. If any class of spells is outright 'evil' it 'necromancy', given how many 'evil' spells it has. And even assuming Equestria, that doesn't seem to be a thing Equestria would do, given how from what we've seen, Ponies actually treat mind magi a whole lot less seriously then people seem to. Given all the times they get their brains messed with and are fine with it after little more then a 'oops, my bad.'
And again, Chaos God about to make all of reality as you know it a living hell where everything you know exists as it is only till he finds a funnier way to change it, not good enough reason to stop him. Yeah, would definitely take the canon mane 6 as world saving heroes over this lot going by that scene.
And then the bit about not being happy at the Princess 'playing them'....... once again, existential threat to existence as you know it and the well being of every living being on the planet. The fact they had to be 'played' into trying to stop that says more about this Mane 6 that they needed to be 'played' to do something about it.
And just gotta take digs at Rarity....
And yeah,do agree Discord was rather pissed off, but he just spent the last few centuries in stone, and they were about to send him right back, he had rights (from his PoV) to be testy about it. Once he had good reason to think that wasn't going to happen, then was time for fun.
....... Yabba-Dabba-Pone!
"As well as a Mustang"
"Hello"
Saw it coming, still very well played.
It's Pinkie, so I cold see it going either way on her having that license.
Seeing pinkie about to use your stuff does tend to make one consider who best to get the repair cost from.
And the Blueblood lost love subplot comes into play.
......There is fourth wall breaking, and then there is..... I am not even sure what to describe that scene as other then gloriously hilarious!
And, just Luna's reaction there..... very good ear indeed.
Was waiting for a BttF joke.
And then a physics joke, just, damn this whole thing was so damn fun.
Dresden would be pleased at your snark in the face of overpowering ability to wipe you out young dragon.
And do appreaciate Spike seeing things in O&O terms does have downsides too. Also, Spike, you'd at best count as a wyrmling, that's a CR3.
Ah template stacking, so fun. Best was DOOMBUNNY! Just for the hell of it, I took a regular rabbit, and slapped as many template as possible onto it, by the time I was done the party cam across a massive, kaiju sized, rabbit shaped, eldritch mutation. They left it alone, very smart move.
And, good to see Discord have a bit of gratitude, that's not wholly outside how he acted.
And, it never was made clear if they saw the greying or not, Pinkie mentioned it, but it's Pinkie.Just, a really odd thing in that ep.
Okay then, Discorded Shining Armor.....umm, well then. Ultimate frat boy.
Best butterfly effect layout ever!
And then, the big change and the major threat now......... it's a pity ponies don't wear clothes, cause this is a very appropriate time for some darkening of pants.
Though, was curious how Rahs would deal with Discord's magic, be able to counter/eat it like the rest. Did not see this coming though. That is...... just damn, and yeah, some hiccups in character motivation, but beyond that this is AMAZING!
