The Breakdown
Twilight teleported into the library to find that it was empty. “Oh right, I gave Spike a break…” She mumbled, taking a step to the door.
“Now I wonder where the others are?” She glanced outside. “Well, Dash’s is probably sleeping in some tree, so I guess I should go and see Fluttershy first. Oh, I hope she isn’t too upset about earlier…”
Twilight turned to leave, almost making it through the door before she stopped. Something was tugging at the back of her mind, almost as if she had forgotten something very important. She thought back to how her and Luna’s plan went so horribly wrong, and how Discord had laughed through it all…
A scowl crossed her face as a light bulb went off in her head. When Discord was first released, he had tricked them all into thinking the elements were in the maze. From there he had split them up and corrupted them all, completing his master plan.
That’s all this was. Just another complex plan he had come up with to triumph over them. He had tricked Celestia, and getting them banned from the wedding was just another step in his plan. Without her and Luna at the wedding, there would be nopony to stand up against him. He could corrupt all her friends again, or even kill Celestia! They were all putty in his hands at this point…
Twilight clapped her hooves together; a slightly crazy look visible in her eye. “Ha! Discord thinks he’s won this just because his plan is going perfect so far! Well I’ll show him, I’m not stupid!” She let out a creepy laugh while an equally creepy smile crossed her face.
----------------------------
“Uh, Twilight? You here?” Spike asked as he stepped into the library which was pitch black. “Twilight?”
There was an eerie silence in the room, and he reluctantly took a step inside. “Twilight?” He called out again, a slight hint of fear in his voice.
Cautiously, he made his way up the stairs, a loud creak filling the room as he took each step. Finally reaching the top of the stairs, he peaked into Twilight’s bedroom, which was just as dark as the rest of the place.
Sitting on Twilight’s bed was a mass of covers, which appeared to be moving. “T-t-twilight?” Spike stuttered into the darkness, the thoughts of zombie ponies coming to his mind.
“Hehehe…” A maniacal laugh punctured the silence in the room, causing the baby dragon to jump back in fright.
“Twilight? Is that you?” He asked, forcing himself to take a step towards the bed. After what seemed liked forever, he was standing at the side of the bed, intently looking at the unidentifiable lump. Slowly, he reached out a claw and poked it.
The mass threw the covers off and what was lying underneath caused Spike to let out a blood curdling scream and fall backwards.
It was Twilight, or at least something similar to Twilight. Her mane was a mess, with individual hairs sticking out at random places. Her pupils had shrunk to the size of bits, and they gave off a crazy, maniacal look. Her teeth were grinding together, and she had a truly frightening smile plastered on her face. “Hiiii Spike!”
“Uh, t-t-t-Twilight, what happened to you?!”
“Oh, nothing! I just finally realized that Discord’s brainwashed and tricked all of you, and that I’m the only sane one left!” She grinned, her ear twitching as she spoke.
Spike tried to give her a comforting look, “Uh, I think you’ve stayed up a bit too long. Why don’t you just take a nap? I promise you’ll be better when you wake up!” He went to tuck her in, but she swatted him away.
“Oh, no! You’re not going brainwash me too! I’m the only one left that can save the Princess, and Equestria! You’re not going to trick me!” She laughed before jumping down from her bed. She rushed into the main room of the library, and Spike hurried after her.
“Wait Twilight; just listen to me for a second! You’re not thinking right!”
“Oh, no Spike, you’re the crazy one here, not me!” She ran to the door, throwing it open.
“Wait Twilight! Don’t go! We need to get you some help; I promise you’ll be all better soon!”
“Just wait and see, I’ll stop the wedding! I’ll save the Princess, and all of Equestria, because I’m the only pony who hasn’t gone crazy!” She laughed manically again before running out into the night, disappearing within a few seconds.
“Oh Twilight…” Spike shook his head, concern trying to overcome his urge to sleep. “I’ll find you, even if it takes…” He let out a yawn, his eyes drooping as he spoke. “All…night…” He passed out on the ground, his snores filling the library.
---------------------------
“Alright, so we’re having red wine for the wedding?”
“Red wine? Ugh, that just screams boring! Why not chocolate milk? Or no, how about-”
“No, Discord! Really? Chocolate milk? Half of Canterlot is being invited, so we can’t serve Chocolate milk!”
“And that’s why I hate these Canterlot ponies! They don’t know how to have fun, and all they know how to do is drink tea and spit it in the peasant’s faces!”
Celestia sighed, dropping the scroll in front of her. Discord had been uncooperative from the very beginning, not offering a single serious suggestion. The whole Twilight/Luna fiasco had only furthered her burden; she just didn’t have time for these things.
“Oh, something wrong, Celly?” He asked, brushing his face up against hers.
“No, just you being you…”
He grinned, “Well, that’s what you love about me.”
“Yes…” She smiled slightly, he was always good at making her laugh, or smile. She quickly changed the conversation, “I really hope Twilight gets over all this nonsense. Sometimes I worry about that pony.”
“Oh,” Discord said, stifling a laugh, “I’m sure she’s doing just fine…”
Celestia gave him a confused look. It almost seemed like he knew more than what he was saying. “Do you know something I don’t?” She raised an eyebrow.
“No! We don’t keep secrets from each other, right my dear?”
“Well, it sure seems like you are…” She stared at him for a few minutes, trying to detect something. Finally, she brushed it from her mind, treating it as just a passing thought. He’s changed, she told herself.
“Well, let’s try to move through this list,” She said, picking the scroll back up. “Next thing, hors d’oeuvres. I was thinking-”
“Cotton Candy!” Discord exclaimed.
Celestia put her hoof to her forehead; this was going to take awhile.
-------------------------
Rainbow Dash scanned the town as she zipped through the sky. It was almost morning now, and still no sign of Twilight. She had been searching ever since she arrived at the library to find Spike alone. She woke him up to only get a few legible words out of him; they were enough to tell her Twilight was in trouble.
Immediately she had begun searching, worried for her safety. A crazy unicorn could hurt herself, or any other pony she came into contact with. She really didn’t want another smarty-pants incident on her hooves…
Finally, Rainbow Dash caught sight of the lavender pony. Hidden in a dark alley she swooped down landing right in front of her. “Twilight! There you are! I’ve been looking all night!”
“Rainbow Dash! Don’t even try and trick me, because you won’t! You want me to take a little nap, so you can get Discord to brainwash me like he did to everypony else! But I won’t fall for it, because I’m smart! Oh yes, so very, very smart…” She cackled, tapping her hooves together as she rocked back and forth.
Just looking at her friend creeped her out, she really had snapped. “We’ll get you help Twilight, just trust me! I’m your friend!” She reached out a hoof to help her up.
“No!” Twilight slapped the hoof away and got up. “You’re not getting me!!!” She turned tail and bolted, running as fast as she could down the alley.
Rainbow Dash sighed before taking chase, her wings allowing her to easily keep up.
“Just give up, Twilight; you’re not out running me!” The Pegasus went to tackle her friend to the ground, but she just ducked and Rainbow Dash slammed into a wall.
“Hehe! See, I’m too smart to get caught! Much to smart…” Suddenly she screeched to a halt as she nearly ran into a brick wall. It was a dead end.
The Pegasus got up panting. “Alright Twilight, we can do this the easy way, or we can do it the hard way.”
Twilight began sweating bullets as she looked from left to right; there was no way out of this alley. It was a dead end, and there was no more running from her friend. Unless…Yes, how could she forget? “Don’t worry Dash, I’ll save you. Along with every other pony when I take down Discord!” She grinned before teleporting away.
“Darn it…” Dash stamped the ground. “Forgot she could do that…”
------------------
Luna sighed depressingly as she lounged on her ornate bed. “Maybe Celestia was right, maybe Discord really has changed…”
Maybe I was just being too much of a snobby, stuck up Princess to see that… I should just let my sister be happy for once, she deserves it…
Suddenly a brilliant flash filled her room, and standing in front of her was a maniacal, crazy unicorn. “Twilight Sparkle?” She asked cautiously, unsure that this twitching, psychotic mare was the same one she was with just yesterday.
“Princess Luna! Has Discord gotten to you yet?”
“Wh-what? I haven’t seen Discord since your plan went so horribly wrong…” Luna glared at her.
“Oh good! I thought I was the only pony left!”
“What do you mean, ‘only pony left’?”
“The only sane one left!” She laughed, sending chills down the moon princess’s spine.
“Um, right… What do you want exactly?”
“To stop Discord before he takes over all of Equestria! I’m sure he’s going to strike at the wedding! We need to stop him before then!”
Luna grinned slightly. This pony was definitely crazy, but maybe a crazy ally would work out better. Something told her to trust her; she didn’t know quite what it was, but she listened to it nonetheless. Her earlier thoughts were quickly swept out of her mind. Discord couldn’t have changed. “Now you’re talking…”

Great, Psycho the rapist is back...
there will be a happy ending for discord...right?
Oh Twilight, you silly pony
Crazy Twilight is best Twilight. Period.
Twilight is going to be an astronaut.
Great chapter! Twilight's gone nuts again, huh? Looks like Luna is caught up in it too, so this should get really interesting. Keep up the good work.
OH SHI-
Aaaaaand there goes the Kingdom...
Oh Twilight, why?
I couldn't stop laughing. Twilight and Luna are like some bat shit insane super hero team: Captain Bitchface McCrabbypants and Raging Psycho.
Twilight is acting like a conspiracy nut and Luna, she's a terrible person. In fact based on this this fic's predecessor she's technically responsible for Discord's reign of terror; she influenced Celestia's decision to wound Discord emotionally to the point where he takes his revenge out in the kingdom. It's good to know Luna hasn't learned jack shit since being put on the moon. I hope the rest of the mane six saves the day.
Peace Out.
My only complaint about this is Luna is out of character in a lot of mannerisms and attitude.
Nightmare Moon changed a lot from the first two episodes of season one.
But there is another problem that keeps me from reading this comfortably...
My feet are cold.
crazy twilight: creepy and dangerous...

I'm guessing that the thing that told Luna to trust psycho Twilight is Nightmare moon.

115402 No offence, but I came up with that joke months ago...

I came up with it while watching "The Colony", because the damn psychotherapist commentator popped up every damn minute.

And how was this not on here to begin with?
Shit just got real...
If you want to break the wedding up one of the best options is makinig it look that discord if fooling around with other mares, Twilight you need to seduce Discord and making him look bad in front of celestia.
Alright, I'm almost certain I know where this is going now. My prediction is that Celestia and Discord are not going to stay together by the end of this. Whether he's back in stone or just beyond the borders of Equestria, whether they hate each other again or simply decide to be friends, I don't have the slightest clue. I haven't been able to figure that far since Celestia is completely unpredictable. Do forgive me if I end up giving something away. Once I get on one of these mental rolls, I just have to put it out there. Feel free to tell me I'm completely wrong and that I should have my head examined.
In any case, here's what I figure:
Twilight is probably wrong about Discord going after the Elements of Harmony, but she is right that he's up to something. Aside from just attempting to liven it up as only he can, this wedding is the perfect opportunity for Discord to get his revenge on Luna for what she did to him in the past. By having her openly attack him with seemingly no provocation, especially if during the ceremony itself, she will be the one labeled as the monster, forcing Celestia to imprison,banish, or otherwise punish her severely for her crime.
As for Twilight herself, her involvement is more for the fact that Discord finds her infinitely amusing in her stubborn single-minded ways rather than for any sort of grudge against her. And as he would put it, the best part is he doesn't have to lift a finger. With Twilight's special brand of insanity goading her, Luna will dig her own grave; and all he will have done is allowed it to happen.
As I've noted earlier, Celestia is the biggest variable here, with the other Elements being a close second. Due to her nature and what has been presented of her thought patterns so far, I haven't been able to come to any sort of conclusion about her. As for the Elements, well, friendship is magic; and magic can be quite unpredictable. Will Celestia see what's happening with her sister and Twilight in time to prevent events from unfolding? Will she discover Discord's plan and confront him about it? Will she allow things to play out and casually brush it aside as if it means nothing like she did after the gala? Will Twilight's friends be able to draw her out of her self imposed insanity before she goes too far? I honestly have no idea, but I'm very eager to find out.
Well, there you have it. Sorry for the length. Like I said, you are more than welcome to tell me that I'm incorrect, some crazy conspiracy theorist, or a complete and utter loony. I regret nothing!

That was a very well thought out, plausible explanation. I'm not going to say whether its right or wrong, just wait and see.
Anyway, I had a fun time writing this chapter. Luna finally gets some well deserved justice!
A special thanks to DemonyRykuKyuubi for his amazing pre-reading job!

Oh, you tease!
I don't think dumping water on her using my water magic will snap her out of this.
So a psychotic looking pony teleports into your room, rambles for a bit, and you think this would make a good ally Luna?
Just...

Ahem. Well if if you're so sane
I think Twilight's relapse makes sense. The last time she thought a wedding was being used as part of an evil plot, she was right, even though no one listened. I just hope she's wrong this time because Discord and Celestia are a cute couple.
Oh no, this is smarty pants all over again...
Goddamnit, you were so close.
