A Brony Life
Chapter 56: Change of Scenery (Episode 3)
Previous Chapter Next ChapterHello every pony!
As you all know, I've been both anxious and afraid of this episode since I thought it up. Mainly because it introduces a new concept, and is my first time using a certain character. Which if none of you have figured out yet, than here it is.
I plan on trying to show off Discord during this episode. Which for me is a little over-whelming. Mostly because, he's my favorite character that's not part of the mane six (seven, if you want to include Blitz). And I don't want to ruin him.
But with how great of a character he is, I knew that I just couldn't live with myself if I never included him in my story. And if I don't soon then the fourth season, which I'm going to bet my life on, will put Discord in an episode and give his character even more of a back story/character development. So before that time comes, I need to put him into my story. That way I'll have my own version of Discord included that I can mold a little more freely. But I don't think I'm gonna change him at all. He's perfect the way he is. :)... Wow, I sound like Fluttershy right now! XD
Okay at this point, I'm just stalling. So let's get the intro over with so we can begin. And to make this faster, I think I'm gonna skip bringing a pony in. Or even Dino for that matter. Sorry every pony, but my minds so scrambled right now that I can't think of a good intro when there's a story to write-up an perfect as best as I can!
So let's hurry this up! Top Three Comments!
3: Stuhlinger: Well don't worry dude, I'm right there with you. The second a hug starts, I just want it to end. Which is why I find it both happy and awkward when I visit my grandparents.
2: whovian803. Well, I guess if that happened then I'd live with it. Too bad I don't think that will ever happen. XD
1: Swift Lightning. Well how do you think Blitz feels now? He's not only stuck in the middle of a group hug, but most of his best friends are all girls. That kind of worsens the feeling of feeling like a girl for him. I kind of feel bad for Blitz when I say it like that...(But at the same time, it makes me hate him a little too. XD)
And with those finished up, let's start this up! Here we go every pony!
Intro Area Decorations to Date: A very realistic sky with a sun in the middle, wires all around the floor, scorch markings on the floor that spell out 'Blitz Waz Herez', a baby T-Rex named Dino, the TARTIS, Trixie's hat laying next to the TARTIS, a giant golden statue of Stepony (Pony Stephano) who is wearing a Rarity shirt, a chalkboard with names of most the main characters that have tallies under each of them (Rarity having the most), and cracks on the ground and in the wall.
Disclaimer: I do not own MLP. All I own is this idea, Blitz, Dino, RJ, Jumpy, and anything else that I've personally created throughout the story. That not including the three background characters that belong to three of the readers that read this story!
Blitz's POV
You know the one thing I love about Equestria that Earth will never have again? The nature. I mean, sure Earth had parks, hiking trails, and camping spots, but it was nothing compared to Equestria. Because it was all explored, crowded, and too close to the cities to ever really feel like you're in the outdoors. Where as Equestria was mostly quiet, adventurous, and wide-open spaces.
So as we were going down a forest trail towards one place that the others said they always go to, most of us had brought stuff for a picnic.
Twilight and Spike were at the head of the group, with Spike pulling a wagon that had drinks and a lot of really great looking cookies. All the others were really excited about those cookies, but I didn't really get why. I mean, they looked like normal decorated cookies to me.
Right behind them were Pinkie Pie and Applejack. Pinkie Pie was bouncing forward, a basket in her mouth. No doubt it had sweets like cookies, cupcakes, and churros. What gave it away was the smell of it all.
Applejack was walking right beside her, keeping the basket on her back. It was filled with apple themed foods like apple fritters, apple cobblers, caramel apples, and even more. And at the end of that list of apple foods was a fresh-baked apple pie. Along with some bottles of apple juice and apple cider.
The smell of apple pie, along with the freshly baked sweets Pinkie brought, made all our mouths water in hunger. The smell over-whelming.
Towards the back walked Rarity and Fluttershy. Rarity only had some simple snacks like small sandwiches and such, along with a picnic blanket or two for all of us to sit on.
Fluttershy had brought along enough salad for all of us, and then some. So we were set on regular food, as well as sugary sweets and such.
That just left me and Rainbow Dash flying above them in the air. Rainbow Dash flying because she had a habit of flying wherever she went, while I was flying because the grass still had just enough morning dew to make me short-circuit if I tried walking with them all. Another reason why I preferred to sleep in and wait for the afternoon.
But moving on, since I wasn't really aware that most every pony was bringing something for the picnic, I ended up not able to bring anything. Which made me feel like a free-loader. But, none of them really cared, knowing that I had no way of knowing that there was a picnic.
"Here we are every pony." Twilight said, stopping in front of what seemed to be a lake. Which wasn't really the best idea for me to be near, but I guess it wasn't that bad.
"Oh this is just perfect." Rarity said sarcastically as she looked at the ground around the lake. "The lake water must have reached the ground around it. Now it's all wet and muddy!"
"Hm..." Twilight hummed in thought, trying to find a solution. When she looked at us all, she then got an idea. "Hey Blitz? You have enough tools with you to build a picnic table?" She asked. She asked that since I had with me my usual tool belt, keeping it with me almost as much as Applejack and her hat. I mainly did this because it was a habit. That, and going without it made me feel naked in a way. And growing up in a world where clothes are a must in public, it just felt weird to me.
But as soon as she asked that I smiled and nodded, knowing what she was trying to ask. "Yeah. Give me a minute." I said, flying up towards a storm cloud. As soon as I got to it, I absorbed it by placing a hoof on it. I then flew as fast as I could towards a decent sized tree. After getting to it, I started circling it closely. Cutting it piece into planks of wood with my tail.
And since I was flying around it in circles, it created a stationary tornado around it. This made the wood fly up and land where I would build the bench. As soon as the whole tree was cut into lumber, I flew over to the pieces. And in only half a minute, I finished building the picnic table.
"Thank you Blitz." Twilight said to me, glad that I was able to help.
But I only smirked at her. "Wait for it..." I told them, flying away from the table so I wouldn't get hit.
As I did, out of the sky landed three circular piece of wood from the bottom of the tree trunk. The three stumps there to use as tables for the baskets.
"That's weird... I could've sworn that I carved out an umbrella too..." I said, looking around in the sky for it. But when I heard something fall into the water, we all turned to see an umbrella made out of wood and leaves sink into the lake.
That made the others start laughing at my bad luck. Though I couldn't blame them. "Dang it..." I mumbled, kind of ticked about that.
"Oh well, least we still got the picnic table. Thank ya kindly Blitz." Applejack said, staying on the bright side.
"Yeah, I guess..." Though as the others just laughed a little more about it, I just shook it off as we all sat down.
"Oh, am I ever so grateful that we all found the time to take the day off and do something relaxing for once." Rarity said, folding the blanket over the table.
"Me too. It seems that almost every week there's something going on doesn't it?" Twilight asked us all.
"No kidding. There's almost always somethin' goin' on." Applejack agreed as she got out the food she brought.
"Yeah. Nice to finally relax with nothing to report." Spike said, acting lazy right now.
But as we all enjoyed the food and the lake, that got me to thinking. Even for us, we get a break from it all every now and then. But...What about the princesses? I mean, they had to have some kind of break or vacation too right?
"Blitz, what's the matter? Is the salad not that good?" Fluttershy asked, seeing how I was in deep thought as I was eating the salad she brought.
"Huh? Oh. No, that's not it. I was just wondering something..." I said, trying to figure it out.
"What is it?" Twilight asked, most of them turned towards me.
"Well... What do you guys think Princess Luna and Princess Celestia do for a vacation?" I asked, not able to get the question out of my head.
"Oh, that's easy! Why they..." Rarity began to answer the question, but stopped herself as well. "Hmm... You know, that's actually a very excellent question..." She agreed, going into thought about it as well.
"Well, it's not that hard of a question really." Twilight said, making us all turn towards her. "They don't take vacations. They are the only ones who can raise the sun and the moon after all." Twilight concluded, taking a bite of her daisy sandwich.
"That can't be true." Rainbow Dash objected. "Every pony needs a vacation every once in a while! And since they're royalty and all, they must be able to take really big trips out of Equestria. Like Saddle Arabia or something." She figured.
"Now hang on a minute there Rainbow." Applejack started. "Twilight's got a point. They still gotta raise the sun and moon. So they probably just take the day off every once in a while." She said, including her own idea.
"Well actually, I think Twilight may be right on this one Applejack. Besides, regal celebrations like the Gala and coming down to Ponyville for brunch are where they take the time to relax." Rarity said, agreeing with Twilight.
"Maybe they spend some time in the garden." Fluttershy said her peace. "I mean, Princess Celestia does have her own pet. So maybe they spend time in the royal garden." She said calmly.
"Oh! Oh! I bet that ever since Discord promised to be good, they throw their own parties! That be so much fun!" Pinkie Pie said, mentioning Discord.
"Wait a second, wait a second." I said, stopping them all before the debate could go on. "Who's Discord?" I asked. His name was familiar, but I couldn't quite place it. Because I could've sworn that I had heard of his name somewhere on Earth. But not as a name but...a song maybe?...
"Oh, that's right! Discord had agreed to respect harmony long before you arrived in Equestria!" Twilight remembered as she finished another bite of her sandwich. "You see, a long time ago, before you were Lonestar Alamo even, Discord ruled Equestria in a state of Chaos. And Princess Celestia and Princess Luna came together to defeat him and take over. Turning him to stone." Twilight explained to me.
"Yeah! Then about two years ago he broke out! And only the six of us were able to put him right back in his place with the elements!" Rainbow Dash gloated.
"And it was so funny, because Discord made cotton candy clouds that had chocolate milk rain! Not only that, but we turned grey too! It was so funny!" Pinkie Pie added, laughing all the way.
"Not ta mention Rarity and, hehehe, Tom." Applejack joked, chuckling at that fact.
"So that's where Tom came from..." I said, getting just why Rarity was calling that giant rock Tom that time she was trying to attack my house. That lead to me and Applejack bursting out in laughter, while Rarity simply turned red in embarrassment.
"Anyway..." Twilight said, getting the attention back on her. "Some time after we stopped him, Princess Celestia brought him to Fluttershy to teach him about the magic of friendship. Which she was able to do. So now, Discord's part of the Royal Council." Twilight concluded.
"Huh?... Well that actually sounds like a good story." I said, getting another apple fritter after finishing my first. I also got the only diet soda that Twilight brought for me. Which I'm surprised that she knew that I liked that flavor. Especially since I almost never mentioned it before. Guess she really does pay attention to detail.
"If you want, we could tell it to you. It'd be a good way to pass the time." Twilight offered, happy to tell the story.
"Sure. Besides, it's probably a better idea than talking about what we think the princesses do for a vacation." I added.
All the others agreed and they began the story. And even at the beginning of it all, it was not only hilarious, but action-packed. And it was at that moment that I realized how I knew Discord. He was on the show as well, and there was even a song about him that I used to listen to. Which was named directly after him and made by 'Tombstone' or something. Which I admit, while I wasn't a Brony at the time, I really liked the song.
I remember seeing the first part of that show as my step-brother was watching it on TV. And from all the weirdness I saw on the first two minutes of it before just out-right calling it stupid, some of the other stuff that they were telling me about I was sure was missing. I mean, the pink clouds? Yeah. Weird animals acting up? Pretty sure I saw that somewhere too. But the tree roots coming alive and tripping them into the chocolate milk puddles? I don't think that was in the show.
None the less, it was definitely chaotic alright. Which made me think of one question in particular. Why exactly did Celestia want this crazy sounding guy as part of the royal council?
Lisa's POV
Even after spending five days in this land after so long, it all seemed so odd and mysterious.
As I started to wake up, still trying to get used to being awake the same hours as my sister, I looked around the 'private jet' as my sister called it.
When I looked outside the window, I saw that we were up quite a ways. Even more so then I had ever thought possible!
So as I looked around the jet, yawning since I just got up from a nap while on this giant machine, I saw two of the others sitting across from me. Both of them talking amongst each other while waiting for my sister to come out from the front of the private jet where the flyer was. Their names that 'Cindy', my sister, had given them were Sloane Armor and May Cadenza Armor.
They were both in the usual human formal attire. 'Sloane' had white, not very tan, skin, with light blue eyes. He also had black hair that had a bluish tint to it. Most would probably say that it was dyed or something, though that wasn't necessarily the case. Finally, he had on a black suit and a fedora over his head, with royal-blue formal shoes to match.
Where as 'May' had slightly tanned skin with light purplish eyes. She had blond hair to match as well. And like 'Sloane', she had on a black business suit, but with a knee-length skirt instead of ordinary pants like him. Also, she had simple light pink stilettos instead of royal-blue shoes. But to make up for that, she had a fedora over her head that was identical to his. And the final thing they both had were wedding rings, being that they were married obviously.
But instead of them, I looked very different. I had dark skin with black hair, and midnight-blue eyes. I also had on 'casual wear' instead of formal attire, which only made me feel out-of-place since the two of them and my sister were in formal attire. Instead of a business suit of any kind, I had on a dark blue shirt with the moon on it. Along with dark blue jeans and simple dark blue 'tennis shoes'.
But much like all of them, my name that my sister had given me was relative to my original name. It began with an 'L' while my last name was very similar to my real one. This was the same for the others as well. Though, they had other similarities. May's original and new name had the same middle, and Sloane's last name was the same as his original.
"So, when do you think she'll come back out?" He asked, turning towards me for an answer.
"I am not certain. She said that once all the Royal Council was together was when she'd start the explanation." I reminded him. Which meant that we had to wait for the final member of the Royal Council to arrive. Him.
And with perfect timing, a bright light flashed next to us all inside the private jet. This making us all shield our eyes from the brightness of it. When it faded, we looked to see the remaining member had arrived.
"Why hello everybody!" He said, laughing as he said that. "How are all of you today?!" He asked with a bright and happy attitude.
This was the fifth and final member of the Royal Council. And while we were here, his name was Sid Droc. A name that he had made up himself. Which sister agreed to even though it was just his name scrambled up. Much like his mind, I might add.
He had sickly white colored skin, making him appear as if he had never gone outside a day in his life. And only to add onto that odd look, he had a light yellowish eye color, and his eyes were red to the point where it looked like he was sleep deprived. And to top it all off, he had grey spiky hair, with a goatee to match. What he was wearing was even more... odd to say the least. Even for this land's ideas of clothing. He was wearing a suit as well, but it was far from formal, as it was so many crazy colors. The top part of his suit was in four different sections. Each made of different colors. The top left side was red. The top right was blue. The bottom left was green. And the bottom right was yellow. Each color having a different style to match. While one of his pant legs were made of denim and looked like jeans, the other was made of cotton and looked like sweatpants. Finally he had on, 'crocs' as they was called, on his feet. All together, it looked like a wardrobe had fallen onto him. That, or a servant had pulled a trick on him.
But after his entrance, I didn't really look at his clothing all that much as I just glared at him. Not appreciating his crazy antics. "Will you cease entering like that?" I asked him, trying to contain my anger as it had only increased with each problem today. "Doesn't thou know that thy entrance may very well blind us?" I asked, not lowering my glare even a little.
"Oh come on 'Lisa'." He started, treating my name like a joke. Which it was, considering my actual title. "Be a little more relaxed. After all, 'Cindy's' perfectly fine with it!"
And with that sentence, I could barely contain my anger. And they all saw it as well. Especially since my aura was starting to show it.
"All that we ask is that you simply don't make such a bright entrance so close to us. Just enter somewhere farther away next time, will you?" May asked him, trying to keep me from destroying the private jet with my anger. Though, I wasn't the only one that despised his antics either.
In response, he simply sighed in boredom and leaned against the wall of the jet. "Oh fine. I suppose I can be a little quieter for all of you boring party poopers." He concluded with a bored tone.
After hearing that, I took in a deep breath to calm down, the aura around me fading away as well. Though it didn't last long as he stuck out his tongue at me. Making me reach the peak of my anger. Not to mention make the aura around me return and turn a color of dark, midnight-blue.
"Oh, perfect timing Sid. We've been waiting on you to arrive." Before my aura could destroy the jet we were all in, my sister came out from the front of the plane.
She had very light skin, along with light greyish magenta eyes and very blond hair that reminded me of the sun. She also had on a business suit that was much like May's. But instead of black, it was pure white.
"Well if I had known sooner, I would've come back earlier from Tokyo." He said, smiling as he remembered something he did there.
He then snapped his fingers, turning back into his original form. A Draconequus. Rightfully named Discord.
"I was just walking around there in my original form, while all they did was glance my way as if I was just some pony in a costume! Some even tried to get my autograph, while others gave me money!" He said, laughing hysterically at the memory. "To bad for most of them, I don't speak Japanese!" He continued.
"Princess Celestia, I thought you said that we weren't allowed to reveal our true forms to humans." Prince Armor said as he and Princess Cadance used their magic to turn back into their original forms. Which was awkward considering that they still had their clothing on in their Equestrian forms.
While they were, Celestia also turned back into her Alicorn form. But again, with the human clothes it looked awkward. Which was just about the only reason why I didn't turn back into my original form myself. Because wearing such commoner clothes while in my true form felt both insulting and weird. Especially since it was tradition for a princess to only wear the finest of outfits, if any. Even though I never really used that rule all that time ago either.
"Well, yes. But there are some special exceptions. One being, Discord can pass off as a human in a costume." She said, explaining it to them. "Though that still doesn't give you an excuse to do so." She said, glaring at Discord.
"Oh fine Celestia, if you're really going to be that protective about our 'identities' then I'll only keep messing around in Vegas. Happy?" He asked, not taking any of this seriously.
"Wait!" I said, stopping this. I then looked towards my sister with slight fear. "You've been letting Discord run freely around this world?! What if he attempts to spread chaos?! This world would be doomed!" I asked, questioning my sister's reasoning.
Discord then suddenly fell to the ground in laughter, making me even more afraid about what he's been doing. "You mean you seriously think that I can make this world even more chaotic than it is now?! I'm the Embodiment of Chaos, not a miracle worker!" He said as he kept rolling around on the ground.
"Princess Celestia, what does he mean by that? Is this world plunged into chaos already?!" Princess Cadance asked, concerned.
"In a way, I'm afraid so. Though, it's chaos that may be even worse than Discord's. Which is why I allow him to come to this world as an outlet for his chaotic ways." She told them. She then used her magic to make a vision appear beside her so we could all witness. As she did so, Discord created a bean bag chair and a soda-hat as he watched.
"You two have only been in this world for three days, and Discord only a few weeks. Me and Princess Luna arrived in this world long ago, as well as visited this world once or twice since Luna's return." Celestia explained to them. The vision then started to show something. Multiple videos about fighting, arguing, war marches, etc.
"And since our visits, this world has only grown more and more chaotic. In our world, Windigos can cause snowstorms if they sense hatred. Plus, in our world there's the magic of friendship. But because there is no magic here, they never grew with friendship like we did. So hatred, fighting, and wars are so much more common here. And it's only gotten worse." She explained to them.
"Plus without magic, they have a different way of surviving. And that's by trying to overcome obstacles by finding different ways around it. Where as we can control the weather to make it easier to grow food, they can't. So they build machines that can make more crops grow. But their machines need fuel, which not all countries of this world have enough of. So that is one of the reasons that have lead to fighting for resources because they don't have the same understanding of friendship as we do." She explained further.
Of course, me and Discord knew this already. Or at least, I did and Discord had a basic understanding of it. But this was all new to Shining Armor and Princess Cadence.
"So what you're saying is, that because of harmony not playing as big a role in this world, it plunged into chaos." Princess Cadance figured out, a little taken back by that figuration.
"Actually..." Discord said, snapping his fingers and appearing on the other side of the vision with a scholar cap on, and a presentation pointer in his hands. He snapped again, making the vision start to show videos about gambling, the internet, and war movies. "Yes and no."
Celestia took a step back to let Discord defend his version of Chaos.
"While I do love a good storm of chaos, this world has tornados of it! But it's really quite different! Just look at the screen here, little ones!" He said, talking to Shining Armor and Princess Cadance as if they were children.
"Poker, Action movies, stunt devils, war, YouTube! They all promote all kinds of chaos! They adore and love the ideas of war, and craziness! And where as I too love those things to the point where I'd name my children after them, that is if I ever had any, they take it too far! Even for me! To the point where they laugh at skeletons, explosions, and death! They even make games out of these things like Call of Duty, paintball, no DQ Wrestling, Minecraft, the list goes on!" Discord finished explaining. I guess he did have a better understanding of it all.
"That means that if they ever came into our world, then they would just think of it as a joke..." Shining Armor realized.
"Ah, funny you mention that! You see-" But before Discord could tell them what our world really was to this one, Celestia used magic to zip his mouth shut and teleport him back onto his bean bag chair.
"That's enough Discord. What you've said is already a lot for them to take in." Celestia told him, not wanting them to know about the show just yet.
"Oh, ruin the enjoyment why don't you. I wanted to see their reaction to what I had to say next! I even had my camera ready!" Discord said as he held out an old 80's camera that was inside the bean bag.
"So if all this is true, why have you brought us all here? Are we here to try to bring harmony back to this world?" Princess Cadance asked.
"No. I'm afraid it's too late to try to do anything for this world. If we were even to reveal who we are, or our magic, then they would try to capture us and try to learn just who we are, and how we're alive." Celestia explained to them. "And if we tried to help by force, they would fight back because they'd be afraid of our powers. Thinking that we're trying to hurt them."
"Then... Why are we here?" Princess Cadence asked.
"Because of the Protectors of Harmony. You see, as soon as the elements were created, me and Luna discovered an energy that had a connection with the Elements of Harmony. Only, it didn't emit from our world. Instead, it showed in a different one. This world. But with all that happened back then, we never had the chance to spend much time looking for them." She told them, this being news to Discord as well.
"So, there are other elements that exist too..." Shining Armor stated, remembering that. "How many are there?" He asked.
"There are four of them. The Element of Creativity. The Element of Persistence. The Element of Heart. And The Element of Courage." She answered.
The vision then showed a picture of Blitz along with the other Elements of Harmony. "Some time ago, we located the Element of Courage and sent him to Equestria, where he then met the other elements. His name is Zeke Boyle. Or what he now calls himself, Electric Blitz. The pegasus you see here." Celestia showed him.
"How come we were never told about him?" Princess Cadance asked, confused.
"Well, it hasn't been important until now. And since you both would've wanted to know his back story, or just what the Protectors of Harmony are, we decided to wait until we could all come to Earth." Celestia explained.
"Speaking of, let me elaborate on the Protectors. Each of the four Elements that I noted either guard one or two of the original Elements." Celestia said, moving onto the next part.
Celestia then levitated over a small suitcase, opening it to show us a pair of giant golden gauntlets. The right gauntlet had a piece missing from the top though in the shape of trumpet. "This is the Element of Heart. Heart is the protector of both Kindness and Generosity. That being Fluttershy and Rarity."
She then closed up and put back the case with gauntlets. Replacing it was an even smaller case, opening up to be a golden helmet. Though it was missing a piece as well at the place of the forehead. This time in an odd circular shape which I couldn't make out. "This is The Element of Persistence. Persistence is the sole protector of Twilight's Element, which is Magic."
Celestia closed that one up as well, replacing it with the final case. Which was the biggest of them all and was a weird shape. When she opened it, it was revealed to be a golden acoustic guitar. Though, the body of the guitar was missing a small piece as well. A piece that resembled an eighth note that you'd see from music. "Finally, this is the Element of Creativity. Creativity is the protector of both Laughter and Honesty. That being Pinkie Pie and Applejack."
Instead of putting the case back though, she closed it and levitated it over to Shining Armor and Princess Cadance. "Which leads me to the main reason we're here. To find and help the three remaining protectors." She told them, stating the real reason we were here.
"Well that should be easy enough. I'd be happy to introduce myself to them." Discord said, getting an idea about how to do just so.
"It won't be that simple. You see, each of them are very hard to approach. Not only by their personalities, but by where exactly they are." Celestia told him. Which made him simply frown and sit back on the bean bag, which had turned into a giant, still ball of water with fish swimming around inside.
"Well, who exactly are they? And what are they like?" Shining Armor asked.
"These are the three remaining protectors that we need to meet." Celestia said, changing the vision once more to show the three protectors. And when I saw just who they were, I stiffened up. This was the first time I had heard of them myself, and I hated it already.
"Luckily, all three of them know each other and live in the same city. The first one is the leader of the three, named Martin Rodriguez. Though he doesn't go by that name and instead goes by 'Morgue'. He's the Element of Creativity, along with being a skilled musician and thief. Which he isn't ashamed of either fact. The main thing about him that makes him unapproachable is that he hates any kind of authority or higher class people. So he usually disrespected them and doesn't follow any rule they give him." Celestia explained.
"Wow! I like this Element already!" Discord exclaimed, happy to hear an Element that was relatable to him.
But Celestia ignored this and continued. "The worst part is that he is now in juvenile hall. For a crime he actually didn't commit. He has now been in there for a few months, and by each passing day is losing touch with his Element more and more." She said, frowning at that fact. Which only made me angrier that she was showing sympathy for him.
"Next up is Joseph Frei, or simply Joe as he prefers. The brains of the group, along with the Element of Persistence. Despite his size and age of eighteen, he is much more dangerous than you'd imagine. And he is very untrusting towards others. So much in fact, that he admits that he is a very cruel person in general. He's also the smartest of them all since he can not only figure out just who we are with even the slightest slip of the tongue, but he can also turn your words against you. Making him very intimidating and hard to talk to." She informed us all.
"Wow, I'm liking all of them more and more!" Discord said with a smile, appreciating their attitudes so much since they reminded him of himself.
"The sad thing about it is, since Morgue has been thrown in prison, Joe's begun to loss touch with his Element as well. Because instead of trying time and time again, not thinking about quitting whatever task until he accomplishes it, he's started giving up. And he's starting to accept that it's better to give up instead of trying at all." Celestia said, again feeling pity for them.
"And the last one! What about the last one?!" Discord asked, hoping to hear her say something along the lines of him destroying buildings for fun.
Which made us finally lose it. Our sister was giving sympathy to these three, as well as Discord acting as if they were his best friends! Those three did not deserve such attention what so ever! In fact the only thing they deserved was...was...
Before Celestia could finish explaining the last one though, they all flinched at the sound of glass shattering into thousands of pieces. They all turned to see next to us was several wine glasses now blown up into billions of pieces.
"Luna, calm down. You need to understand that-"
"No!" I yelled to my sister, too angry to keep quiet now. "Sister, how can you simply give sympathy to these petty criminals?! T'was the same three that made Blitz's life a thousand nightmares! And we will not simply remain still as you continue to feel bad for them!" I yelled out.
"Oh please, Princess Full Moon. They're just three entertaining huma-" Before Discord could continue, we forced his head with our magic into his water bean bag, turning the fish into hungry piranhas to keep him quiet.
"We can stand you giving such an insulting name towards our title, only letting us wear peasant clothing, and forcing us to have to bear the plaguing jester that is Discord! But when you show sympathy for the three that almost ruined Blitz's life, we will not remain silent!" I yelled out, using the Canterlot Voice to add onto it.
The result we were looking for only worked on Cadance and Shining Armor though, as they leaned away from us in fear of getting caught up in this. As for Discord, he was afraid alright. Just more about the piranhas than us really. But he would be fine, the whelp. Especially since he was immortal.
But instead of fearing us, or at least agreeing to stop feeling sympathy, she simply sighed and looked to me with a sad look. "Luna. I understand that you think of Blitz as family. But you mustn't act this way just because of how we're acting about the three of them. After all, there is no way around it considering that they're Elements as well." She reminded me.
But seeing that I still wasn't agreeing to the idea, she added something else. "I don't appreciate the way they acted towards him either, but I understand why they did so. Two of them had a good reason to act the way they did. And if you at least gave them a chance, you'd see it too. So please, calm down. Anger and resentment won't help anything." She told me.
And as much as we hated to admit it, our sister had a reasonable argument. Hatred wasn't going to accomplish anything. That much was proven to us a long time ago. And harming them wasn't an option as much as we-I thought it was.
I took in a deep breath, calming down. Soon enough, I got my act together and nodded. I still wasn't going to feel sorry for them in any way though, and I doubt I ever will. "Alright sister, I apologize for my actions."
"Good. Now, if you would be as so kind as to stop holding Discord's head in the water. I think he'll stay quiet for now." She said, reminding me of that. Though it was obvious that I was keeping his head in there on purpose. Serves him right for calling me 'Full Moon'.
I stopped my magic and Discord came out immediately. The reason he wasn't able to come out earlier was because the piranhas were hurting him. Meaning it was impossible for him to use magic. And though we're all immortal, we can all still feel pain. So he was trapped until I freed him. Smart, is it not?
"Why you..." He said, now glaring at me. He then spit out a piranha, and changed the water into a still ball of leaves and sat on it. And I could've sworn I heard animal noises coming from inside it.
"Now that that's settled, let's hurry and explain the final one before the plane..." As Celestia said that, the pilot came out from the cockpit. And he was surprisingly not affected by the fact of seeing two unicorns, two Alicorns, and a Draconequus.
"Excuse me Princess Celestia. We've arrived." He told her, also knowing her name.
"Oh, good. Thank you for flying us all here Gabe." Celestia said with a nod as she got up.
"Dear sister, how does he-"
"Princess Celestia visited me when I was a child. And let me just say that I am so relieved that I wasn't imagining an Alicorn speaking to me during my tragic childhood." He said, chuckling at that. He then opened the door and let down the ladder for us all.
Celestia then changed back into her human form, putting on a hat of her own to hide her horn, as well as a jacket that matched her business suit to hide her wings, which had gone through slits that were in the back of the business suit. For all unicorns, pegasi, and Alicorns, our wings and horns couldn't disappear when in our human form. Not to mention, our Cutie Marks appeared on our dominant hand instead of our flanks. Meaning that we had to wear hats, coats, and gloves to hide these things.
Shining Armor and Princess Cadance turned back into human as well, as did Discord after snapping away the jungle bean bag. Shining Armor then helped Cadance put on her coat as they left.
Discord, having a coat on already, just started to walk out. His two horns weren't on top of his head because they weren't what produced magic, so he didn't need to worry about a hat.
I, on the other hand, simply got up and put on a formal-casual jacket, normal gloves, and a fedora of my own. Once I followed them all out, there were two limos waiting in front of us.
"Now then. Me, Sloane, and May are going to go to the juvenile hall to speak to Martin." She told us all. She then turned towards me. "Sister, you and Sid will go off to their high school to have a meeting with Joe and his brother. In your limo will be two files, each on them. Also in there will be a Secret Service badge. The rest of the instructions will be in there as well, explaining anything that you might wan to know." My sister told me, getting serious now.
"Understood. Good luck, dear sister." I told her, knowing what I had to do. Even though I hated the three that we had to 'save', not to mention having Discord accompany me, I knew that I had to do this. For the good of Equestria. Especially if what Celestia had predicted is to happen.
"Good. We are to meet back here once we're all done. May? Sloane? Let's get going. And be careful with the guitar. We don't won't to break it." She said, heading off to the limo with them. Since the limo drivers didn't know who we really were, we couldn't talk to each other with our normal names. And we had to act as if we were normal humans. Good thing sister was smart enough to give Shining Armor, Cadance, and myself five days to get used to being human.
Now all that left was the mission at hand. Getting to that 'high school' and helping Joseph and his brother. And even now, I feel like jumping out of this 'limo' when I say that.
And so begins the journey to the human world! To be honest, I'm not sure how I'm doing with a few things right. Those being how I'm using Discord, the plot of this story, and a few other things. And I really hope that I'm getting them right.
Also another thing I want to address. Any Equestrianite that comes to our world will NOT be radiation colored like Equestria Girls. They'll look like normal humans except for a few things I'll list here.
Unicorn-Humans: Will have their horns even in human form, and their Cutie Mark on their right hand.
Pegasi-Humans: Will have their wings even in human form, and their Cutie Mark on their right hand.
Earth Pony-Humans: Will look the same as regular humans, and their Cutie Mark on their right hand.
Alicorns-Humans: Both wings and horn will be on their human form, and their Cutie Mark on their right hand.
Draconequus-Humans (Discord): Will have their odd-looking wings, but not their horns. (No horns because their magic doesn't emit from them. So they're basically useless/magic-less. Which is why their missing as human)
Dragon-Humans: Mohawks (unless they change the hair style of course), forked tongues, and their eyes stay the same. (Also to note, if any dragon that is older than the usual human life-span, then they will appear as an elderly human)
And with all that explained, I hope you guys are okay with it! And if not then sorry, but that's how I'm keeping it. If any of you have any questions you'd like to ask about the design of them, feel free to ask!
See you tomorrow every pony!
QotC: Do you think that Discord could really cause that much chaos in the human world? If so, then what?
