Mane Six Progress
After the events of the Canterlot Wedding, defeating King Sombra at the Crystal Empire, Twilight and her friends continue their search of the CMC. Princess Cadance and Shining Armor sent a squadron of Crystal Guards to search for Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo. They will report to the Crystal Empire every week. The Mane Six search around the Crystal Empire to see if the CMC decided to come there once the Crystal Empire illuminated from the ground. So far, no luck. The Mane Six return home after their trip to the Crystal Empire.
Three months pass by since Princess Celestia issued Ponyville's punishments for the justice they delivered to the CMC due to the Gabby Gums incident. Princess Celestia sent her Royal Guards to Ponyville to see if they are withholding their punishments. No celebrations, no birthday parties, and no special events. It's been miserable for everypony in Ponyville and, they deserve it for making three young fillies run away from home. The Royal Guards alerted Ponyville that their punishment is up and flew back to Canterlot. Pinkie Pie immediately throws a happy party for everypony, especially those who couldn't celebrate their birthdays.
A few weeks later, Ponyville is slowly becoming its former self. Happy and prosperous. Everypony in town becoming more of themselves except a few. The Apple Family, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, and Twilight Sparkle. As for Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy, they are handling things better than the others.
Applejack spends most of her time searching for Apple Bloom when she is not working. She travels with Rarity and Rainbow Dash occasionally. Twilight has her studies with magic and Friendship, which is why she is unable to search with Applejack from time to time. Pinkie Pie is busy helping the Cakes at the bakery and setting up parties in Ponyville. During her free time, however, she would go with Applejack in search of her beloved sister and friends. Fluttershy has asked some of her animal friends to search all around Equestria to locate the CMC. As of late, they are unable to find them. Fluttershy does tend to go with Applejack and Rarity in search of the CMC. When Rarity is not creating a new fashion style, she goes with Applejack to search for Sweetie Belle and her friends. She closed the shop numerous times. The safety of her sister is more important than her career. Rainbow Dash uses her nap time to search for Scootaloo and her friends. She uses that time to travel with Applejack and Rarity. She's more worried about Scootaloo than her well being. Sometimes, Rainbow Dash is unable to join Applejack and Rarity due to work and training. She asked a few Wonderbolts to help her find Scootaloo and her friends. Misty Fly and Soarin agreed to help Rainbow search for Scootaloo and her friends. The two are in debt since Rainbow Dash saved their lives back at the Best Young Fliers Competition. As for Spitfire, she's busy with the Wonderbolts Academy.
In recent weeks, the Mane Six endured the Pinkie Pie Invasion and the return of Trixie. Their next challenge is now reforming Discord. Princess Celestia has the use of Discord's magic for good instead of evil. Princess Celestia is entrusting Fluttershy. After today with Discord's antics, he is now reformed and ready to be a good use for Equestria.
"Go on, say it," Fluttershy said.
"Uh, uh, alright. Friendship is Magic!" Discord shouts.
"Hey Discord, are you able to sense anypony around the world?" Twilight asks curiously.
"Yes, I can sense anypony anywhere. Why are you asking me such a silly question?" Discord said as he sips a cup of chocolate milk.
Applejack and the others are catching on to Twilight's idea. They can use Discord's magic to locate the CMC.
"Do you remember seeing three young fillies when you were conquering Ponyville? When you made my-our friends turn into their opposites?"
"Hmm," Discord starts remembering his doings when he took over Ponyville a year ago. "Ah, yes. My three saviors."
"Saviors?" The girls question in curiosity.
"The three saviors, Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo. It was their bickering that I escaped from my stony prison back at the Canterlot Gardens."
Eyes widen for everypony around Discord. They didn't know that the CMC was the reason for releasing Discord.
"That'll be a discussion for a different day. Are you able to locate them?" Twilight asks.
"Yes. I know exactly where there are."
"Could you take us there?" Twilight said as she smiles.
"Sure."
The girls around them cheer loudly. They are finally going to see the CMC, apologize to them, and bring them back home. Now they are waiting for Discord to take them to them. Minutes go by as Discord is standing there doing nothing.
"Uh, Discord?" Twilight asks.
"Yes."
"Why aren't you taking us to your saviors?"
"You ask if I could and, I can. You didn't ask if I would and, I won't." Discord smirks a bit.
"You selfish chaotic, varmint!" Applejack angrily states. "Friends are supposed to help one another, not disrespect them!"
"Oh, such hypocrisy. You didn't help Fluttershy here to reform me, just made idol threats to turn me back to stone when I used my magic. Also, I just reformed. There is a lot I need to learn. Another thing, this is your problem to fix, not mine. I didn't create the mess to help you clean up, you did."
Applejack grits her teeth and storms off to Sweet Apple Acres angrily.
"Some friend you'll turn out to be," Applejack mutters loudly in anger, not noticing Discord hearing her.
"Yea, like I'll need you as a friend. I have Fluttershy," Discord picks up Fluttershy and hugs her like a plushy.
"I agree with Applejack, Discord. If you're not going to help, what kind of friend you'll be," Rainbow states emotionlessly.
"The one who won't pour rainwater in anger."
Rainbow Dash breathes heavily. She starts having a flashback to the time she poured rain at Scootaloo and her friends. Rainbow Dash flies away in shame.
"Discord," Fluttershy sternly said.
"What? They started it. Also, I saw their intentions right through their eyes."
"What intentions, Discord?" Twilight said, raising an eyebrow.
"Well, Twilight. You were going to use me to get to Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo. Then forget about me. Using me for my magic and not of Friendship." Twilight starts sweating a bit.
"Twilight.., tell me this isn't true?" Fluttershy quietly asks.
"Well, uh..," Twilight stumbles on her wording.
"It is true," Fluttershy lowers her head in sadness.
"I will not help you, Twilight. You are not my friend. You are not worth it. You can't have everything exactly your way. Something I learned today right before I reformed."
Princess Celestia arrives to pick up Discord and takes him back to Canterlot. Twilight has a lot of thinking to do and how to redeem herself. Be a better friend with Discord. Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Twilight, and Fluttershy go there separate ways. In Canterlot, Princess Celestia gives Discord a room to stay in for a while. Discord uses his magic to spawn a glass globe to spy on the CMC. He sees them having fun and creating something new with Starlight Glimmer.
"Well, I won't be ruining the surprise to anyone. You'll have to wait and see what happens next," Discord said.

I could've sworn for sure the WONDERBOLTS wouldn't dare help R.D. after word of her actions got out. Not to mention now aren't Twilight & her friends the NASTY LITTLE CHEATERS? Attempting to use Discord as an advantage to RAT out the CMC's location & whereabouts just when their starting to have lives better than them? CELESTIA SPANK. If they keep this up, not only will the CMC's never return back, their going to end up losing the respect of others in the process as well, including especially the respect of their family members & the PRINCESSES.

Rarity said that she hopes Rainbow Dash doesn't become a Wonderbolt. The emotions of using Discord got the better of them.
10098933
Right. B.T.W. you spelled R.D. wrong. So at this point, Discord does know the CMC'S location but refuses to do anything so that the townsfolk fix this alone. For only then would they be able to earn his friendship & respect when they start taking responsibility for their actions & start acting like the so-called ELEMENT BEARERS their suppose to be. The time being he decides to let the CMC'S live the best lives they can have possible by watching over them from the shadows while beginning his learning's on the magic of friendship the RIGHT way.
10099135
Pretty much.
yeah Discord has a point
10099321
He does.
I think I understand what’s happening, the main six won’t find the Crusaders until the cutie map episode.
10099500
Good guess.
It's great to see more from you and this fanfic, you definitely expanded this concept more than others and it'll be great to see how it develops.
I wonder how Diamond Tiara is doing since she was sent to military school, and I also wonder is she'll get a redemption arc like in the show.
10099573
Diamond Tiara is living in hell. I can tell you that. I don't think there'll be a redemption arc for her. It was the CMC that reformed her. In this case, Diamond Tiara is going to be different.
What do you like about this fanfic?
If the Mane Six confront the CMC about how they indirectly released Discord, they sure better not chew them out about it. I mean how would they have known Discord was feeding off their squabbling. Plus it's said that his imprisonment was also getting weaker over the time he's been imprisoned sort of like how Nightmare Moon was able to return from her banishment. After all nothing lasts forever.
10099658
True.
10099573
In general, how you assign things as if they are right or wrong rather than being good or evil. The main six were in the wrong to reject the CMC but they do care for them and are trying to find them at their own expense.
I really like how you have Discord call out ponies as trying to use him to relieve their own guilt rather than make a genuine attempt to be friends.
One thing I am wondering about is if the CMC, other the Scootaloo so far, will have an impact on Starlight.
10099724
Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle do have an impact on Starlight. I can tell you that right now. The feeling is mutual with a high level of understanding.
10099277
Right.

DAAAAMMMMNNNNNN Who would thought Discord is actually one Savage Motherbucker!
Especially These.....
10102630
Thank you for making my day. Are you enjoying the story?
10102811
yes i enjoyed the story and why do i get the feeling that, fluttershy (cough *mai waifu* cough) is the only sane pony in the group.
I think starlight going to justified her Equality (Communist) ideology ever since she meet CMC and hear their story and how they got bullied for not having a cutie mark
in the cartoon series we all know that Diamond Tiara became bully because of her mother (altough many fans believe spoiled rich is DT stepmother and her real mother has pass away after giving birth), but the story DT are really manupilative evil sadistic bully is two thumb up
the only problem was i think the plot was rather rushed and the punishment well i think little soft in my opinion.....
either way the story is well written and teaching everyone how to handle bullying and blackmail victim (which many cosider lucky since CMC didn't commit suicide).
10103448
Fair critique.
Fluttershy did give Discord a ligament chance, unlike the others.
10103472
Well, those ligaments do need work
10217421
Alright then.
I just thought of something. If the events of the Canterlot Wedding occurred, wouldn’t that mean Twilight’s friends and Celestia left Twilight during the rehearsal? That would mean Twilight’s friends didn’t learn anything from the Gabby Gums incident and Celestia was being a hypocrite, right? It just something that occurred in my mind.
10261873
Life would have to continue. The wedding was to clear their heads a bit from the aftermath. They would go through Chrysalis and having fun at the wedding but, their smiles would fade away as the guilt will still get the better of them.
10103448
"Soft"
They gave up entirely too soon, and ended up looking like brats throwing a tantrum the moment things don't go their way. Rainbow, Rarity, ad Applejack could have asked Discord to deliver letters of apology.
She's an even bigger freak than I thought. She used to be my second favorite.
10261873
You make a compelling argument.
She should've tried to smack him.
Just because you can talk to me, that doesn't mean I ever liked you, you giant turd.
10099658
Correct.
