"...What is she doing?" Twilight asked as she stared at me from the corner.

"Casting a new spell she learned." Trixie answered. "Trixie was told it takes an hour."

"This is so boring. I came down here hoping for some entertainment." Discord complained. "Normally I don't do this but I'm going to read ahead a little to see if this gets interesting." After saying that Discord summoned some printing paper and started skimming through them making my right eye twitch but I maintain my focus on the spell.

"Oh, oh she moved!" Pinkie exclaimed as she pointed at my eye. "Is that part of the spell?"

"No that was because I broke the fourth wall." Discord said dismissively. "Like you and me oh pink one she has fourth wall awareness thanks to her involuntary trips to the void. But unlike us she pushes it out of her mind and doesn't use it because she has this fear that when her story ends she will stop existing."

"Oh, okay!" Pinkie said as she started bouncing around me.

"In fact when someone starts talking about it she actively ignores them. And if the person persists in talking about it she will grow more and more agitated." Discord continued while giving a troll face. Literally his face turned into the troll face for a moment.

"What's the fourth wall?" Twilight asked in confusion.

"Oh nothing you should concern yourself with Twilight. It's just something that can make Rin violent when she keeps being reminded of it. She even has this one nightmare about it called the ducky dream." Discoed continued until Pinkie stuffed a cupcake in his mouth.

"We're not talking about this any more." Pinkie said in a matter of fact tone. "Keep this up mister and I'll tell Fluttershy you were bullying Rin!" Pinkie said right to Discord's face.

"Oh alright fine." Discord grumbled as he leaned back while folding his arms. About this time the room was filled with a sound like tape being torn off and everyone looked down at the floor in front of me as my shadow pulled itself off the floor while absorbing the onyx gem I was holding becoming a 3D copy of me only it's all black like it was a hole into the void. "Oh! A shadow clone!" Discord shouted out while wearing an orange jumpsuit. "Double the fun!"

"Oh! Make more! Make more! Oh! Make one of me!" Pinkie shouted excitedly.

"But do it later! I don't want to wait an hour for another one." Discord said.

"I only have one shadow." I deadpanned while pointing to the ground showing them that I was no longer casting a shadow. "And though I can do it to your shadow without sacrificing memories with the create shadow creature spell it would only last twenty four hours and will still take an hour to cast. Anyways this is my new assistant." My shadow gave a bow to my guests in greeting. "There are some other spells I would like to cast in this book as well except most of them require material components I just don't know how to get it this world. And getting them in the world they came from isn't much easier."

"Assistant? Does that mean it's as smart as you? You should bring it over to my place and we can play some games some time. No one else I know is smart enough to play a good strategy game against." Discord said as he poked my shadow.

"Hay!" Twilight complained.

"She outwitted me allowing Celestia and Luna to blast me with the Elements. And anyone who can outwit me is an unbeatable tactician. She trapped me with a plan so cunning, so ingenious that it would topple even the most brilliant minds!" Discord replied in a matter of fact tone getting everyone to look to me questioningly.

"I just distracted him by making farty sounds with my pits." I say while putting my right forepaw under the pit of my left foreleg which I flapped like a bird's wing a few times to demonstrate.

"How are you doing that!?" Discord demanded as he teleported over to me.

"That relay is a good question. Anatomically speaking I shouldn't be able to. What with the shape of my paw making it impossible to hold the air and even if it could there is all the fur in my pits making it so it would leak out through the gaps instead of making skin smack skin." I admit.

"...I think you just refuse to admit you lost to someone who isn't a super genius." Twilight deadpanned at discord.

"Your point?" Discord asked.

"Why are you all in my dungeon anyways?" I ask them.

"To invite you to the Discord isn't evil anymore slash stop the big meany slash made a new friend party!" Pinkie answered.

"Spike wanted to hang out with dragons to learn more about them and I wanted to just learn more." Twilight answered. Seeing as Spike wasn't around he must already be at the lava pool where my dragons like to hang.

"Fun." Discord answered. "Also Fluttershy is here after Trixie, the one with the red and white ball as a cutie mark not the one from this world, told her about those fun little animals you brought back when wand Trixie took ball Trixie around Ponyville. You know you relay need to get one of them to change their name if you're going to keep them both or it's going to get very confusing very fast. And not in the good way."

"And Lyra came with us because she said she was bored." Twilight added.

"And where is Lyra?" I asked getting a shrug from the others. With a huff of annoyance I close my eyes search my dungeon and am surprised to find her in the library sneaking around. How did she get there? It's not possible to get from the portal to the palace to the library without going by an alarm trap and she's not my minion. So how did she get in there without setting one off? I open a portal to the library and use my magic to pick up Lyra and pulling her into the room I'm in. "So... What were you up to?" I asked the floating mare.

"Oh, well, I was just exploring. I did a lot of that back at the palace and wanted to check this place out. By the way I never saw any walls like the ones here in the palace. Was that hole some kind or portal? Where is this place? Also... how did you know where I was?" Lyra asked raising my suspicions. First she sneaks past my alarm traps which isn't easy to do and know she wants to know my dungeon's location? Ya, no.

"Sorry but I just can't let you wander around like that. It's dangerous and I don't want you getting hurt." I say and Lyra frowns at my answer. "As for where we are I can't tell you. It's a secret."

"Oh...I see." Lyra said sadly.

"As for knowing where you were Equestria's magic kicked in and started playing spy music while you were sneaking around so I just followed that." I say getting a strange look from the green unicorn with a deep frown.

"Oh don't be sad. I'll send you somewhere you can safely explore all you want. I'll pick you up later when it's time for you to go back to being with Bon-bon." I say with an encouraging smile as grab her and shrink her down to toy size in my paws. Before she could register what was happening a create a portal and i stick my upper body in and put her someplace safe until it's time to send her back.

"Well I have a few important things to do today. You're welcome to watch but please don't interfere. I actually think you'll enjoy what I need to do next Discord." I say before focusing on my dungeon heart to make an announcement through the links to my minions. "Attention everyone. I will now be holding tryouts for the rank of epic. The promotion comes with increased pay, private quarters and a custom made weapon. Those with the rank of epic will be commanders expected to lead missions. All those interested in taking the test raise your hand hoof or claw." I call out and search around my dungeon with my above view and picked up anyone showing they want the job.

"Wait where did you send Lyra?" Twilight asked.

"Just a little place called Toy Town. No worries she'll be fine and I'm sure she will have lots of fun." I reply in a reassuring tone.

Toy Town.

"Fun! Fun! Fun! Fun! Fun!" shouted the toy Pinkies as they played. Lyra saw pinkies racing. Pinkies jumping on soft bouncing things. Pinkies riding on carnival rides. Even Pinkies launching themselves across town using a giant jack in the box. In her opinion... It actual looked like a fun place. Except for one small problem.

"Too, many, Pinkie Pies." Lyra said with an eye twitch as she turned and tried to run out of town only to crash face first into an invisible wall. "What?" Lyra asked aloud as she studded the wall. "glass? Enchanted with an illusion to make it look like the sky." She grumbled. "I really need to learn how to teleport. This is just great. I'm now stuck inside a town of living toys of Pinkie! How could this possibly get any worse!?" Lyra shouted to the sky angrily before her eyes widened in horror. "No! I didn't mean it!"

After shouting that out Lyra looked around in a panic waiting for something to happen. She didn't need to wait long when she heard a donging sound like something struck the glass followed by a loud click as the sky opened up only a giant head to poke in.

"Oh no." Lyra whimpered as the head pulled out and a leg came in followed by another as the intruder climbed in and let herself drop. "Oh no you don't!" Lyra shouted as she scrambled back just barely managing to get out of the way as a giant diapered butt came crashing down where she was just standing. "Sit on me once shame on you. Sit on me twice shame on me!" Lyra shouted only to draw the attention of the giant baby who looked down at her with curious dragon eyes. "...I should probably be running right now."

Lyra gave a startled squeak and took off running when the baby reached down to grab her. Lyra's panic grew when she heard the playful giggles and the giant hoof steps echoing off the walls as she turned a corner. As she was running she looked back at all of the toy pinkies flocking to the changeling baby excited about the new playmate. With a sigh of relief Lyra ducked into an alleyway thinking that the toy Pinkies will make the titanic tot forget about her. When she stopped to catch her breath she felt something soft clamp onto her left butt cheek and she turned to see a toy wolf attacking her but its stuffed body made its attacks harmless.

"Hey back off buddy. Only Bon-bon can bite me there!" Lyra said angrily as she gave it a good buck sending it flying into a wall with a squeak. With a nod Lyra turned back to see that the only way out was blocked by two large hole filled legs and a white poofy diaper where they met. Before she could register this a glob of drool splashed down on her back and she looked up at the giant smiling face of the young changeling.

"Oh come on! Those Pinkies were begging to be played with. Go play with them and leave me alone!" Lyra pleaded only to be answered by the baby reaching for her again. With quick reflexes Lyra dodged to the side and moved to jump through one of the holes in the legs blocking her path. Quickly the baby reached down once again to grab Lyra but again Lyra dodged and jumped through a leg hole to freedom...Only to stop dead when she was half way through.

"What?" Lyra asked as she wiggled about in an attempt to get free only to realize with dread that she was firmly stuck. At that moment she was tipped over as the baby got up and sent on a wild ride as the child started running around. "I need to learn to keep my big mouth shut!" Lyra proclaimed as she closed her eyes and just tried not to lose her lunch.

"Welcome to the arcade!" I announce to the applicants as I gesture to the room. It's not done yet but there is enough to do the tests. Most of the games here are actually enchanted with the same magic the comic book industry is using now combined with scrying magic so that those outside can watch. These video games will be used to train in a controlled environment without consequences but now they will be used to see if you have what it takes to be the best!"

"What do you think this room will attract?" Discord asked as he looked at the games I have at the moment.

"I don't think it will attract anything. It's just for training and for fun." I answer dismissively.

In an undisclosed location.

Slowly a pony in a dark robes carrying a sword twice his size on his back moved through the shadows with stealth. The brave knight had just learned that the one he was in service to was planning to poison him today and he didn't have long to escape. Luckily he could hear the call of a new master in the air and all he had to do was get out of the territory of the evil queen. He was almost the the main gate of the castle when the dreaded evil queen stepped out in front of him. She towered over and looked down at him disapprovingly.

"And where do you think you're going?" She asked him.

"I know of your plan to poison me dark one! But I say thee nay!" He said as he lifted his sword to get ready to fight. "I hear the call of my new dark lord! Stand aside or I will be forced to smite thee!" His queen just rolled her eyes at this before grabbing him in her hooves and picking him up. "So be it." With a mighty swing his sword cut through the air and struck true right on the queen's head. SQUEAK!

"Button Mash you are going to eat your Brussels sprouts whether you like them or not. They're good for you." She said as Button repeatedly bopped her on the head with his toy squeaky sword before she got annoyed by it and took his weapon. Desperately Button struggled but he was no match for his mom as she carried him to the dining table where the steaming green doom awaited him.

"Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

Back with me.

I had just tried to test the room with a forced link to see it it would attract anything and only one link went out. Figuring that if I want whoever it is it will happen on its own when it's finished I cut the connection and turn back to my minions.

"Obviously the most important part of this job is the ability to lead the troops under you efficiently. So the test will be putting all of you in charge of your own fortified towns with townspeople and troops to command. You gain points by taking the flags from other players which can be found in the town hall in the center of each town. If you don't lose any points you will only need one flag to win. Don't worry about the other players you can't hurt each other in the game. You lose points for each death of your people. Ten points per fighter. Twenty points per adult citizens and one hundred points for a child citizen. Though if you or any of the forces under you kill a citizen even if it's from another player's town you also lose those points." I say to the crowd.

"That's stupid! Who's going to attack the citizens if you lose points too?" One of my dragons asked.

"You'd be surprised how easily it can happen when a battle takes place in a populated area. Now everyone on the pad next to the game. It might need to take a few loads to get all of you." I announce causing my minions to push towards the white platform. After a few green smoky twisters sucked all of the minions in I moved to the arcade style game next to the pad. Alright time to play. I'll give my minions some time to adjust first before I throw them a curveball." I say aloud as my guests move in to watch as well. "Wait where is Pinkie?" I ask when I notice her absence. I got my answer when one of the little towns on the screen started rocking back and forwards with confetti and balloons coming out of it. "...Never mind."

"This is amazing! Do you have any idea what this kind of magic could do for training law enforcement and rescue workers? That is if it truly is an environment without consequences." Twilight said with stars in her eyes.

"Yes...That's why I have them. Weren't you paying attention?" I asked her while watching the screen making Twilight blush in embarrassment. "Looks like most of them are failing already." I say as I watch armies moving out of their towns and converge on one spot in the middle of the map to fight one giant battle. Can't say I'm surprised. They were mostly dragons and black knights. Strong fighters but not much for tactics. I thought to myself as I zoom in on the ones left.

In the game.

Swift Blade had rushed up the wall around her town when she heard the sound of a massive force charging off in the distance in worry that she was being attacked before she could Finish assessing the strengths and weaknesses of her troops and fortifications but quickly calmed down when she saw that most of the other players had just sent out what looks like all of their troops into one giant free for all.

"Well at least we have plenty of sitting ducks to choose from." She said as she got back to work. "Let's see. The ten with the giant crossbows are snipers but have a slow reload time. I'll take two and leave the rest on the tallest buildings and give them some cover. I'll take five archers and put the rest on the walls. And and the warriors... I'll take ten and have the rest block key entry points and man the cannons on the four towers at each corner of the wall." As each of the troops moved to their posts she turned to address her citizens. "Attention humans of... yellow town! For your own safety I need you to move to your homes and lock your doors!" She shouted out getting no reaction from the town's people.

"Excuse me miss you need to get out of the streets." Swift said to a woman who only responded by clapping. "...Is that a yes or..." Swift asked before the woman walked a short distance away. "Now you're clapping at a bush. That's not helping anything." Swift said as the woman moved on to applaud a nearby outhouse.

"Pl-pl-please go away! You have no idea how awkward it is trying to go when someone is just standing there clapping at you!" A voice called out from the toilet as a hand came out of the seat. "Oh wait! Before you go I need some paper!"

"...Not the hiding place I would choose but at least he has the basic idea." Swift said with a disgusted look on her face. Excuse me sir. We need to get you and the others somewhere safe." Swift called out to a strangely square, bald man with a big nose.

"Hello. Would you like to trade some emeralds for this block of dirt?" The block like man asked.

"Why? What does it do?" Swift asked.

"Um... It's a block of dirt. You put it somewhere you think it will look nice." The square man replied while looking at Swift like she was stupid. Swift just blinked a few times until her attention was drawn up to a short man in green tights flying over the town from a large red balloon while singing about how he was a magical fairy while tossing confetti about.

"...I understand how not killing the citizens is a challenge now." Swift said with a deadpan before turning to the troops she kept with her for the assault on other towns. "Alright let's get to work. Our first target will be red town because it's the closest undefended town. Let's move out!" After that and one quick stop to get her guys into a formation she liked they moved over to the red town. As soon as they got close though they were forced to scatter when one of the cannons on the wall towers started firing at them killing two of her men who were unable to get out of the way in time. Focusing on the tower she could see a dragon reloading to fire again.

"Spread out and charge! You two get behind those bushes for cover and snipe that dragon!" Swift shouted out causing her two ballista men to take cover and aim. One shot struck the dragon in the leg causing him to roar before stopping suddenly when he realized it didn't hurt and taking a deep breath to light the cannon again for another attack but the second shot hit a powder keg knocking it over and causing it to roll into the path of the flames.

"Oh skuze!" The dragon shouted a draconic profanity and flew away before the tower exploded. Unfortunately for that dragon he didn't get far enough away and was sent flying into the ground. Negative 350 points appeared in red over Swift's and the dragon's head.

"Buck!" Swift swore as she charged with her troops at the downed dragon and plunging her blade deep into his belly before he could get up. Instead of blood glowing white pixels came out of the dragon before his body dissolved into the little cubes and disappeared.

The Arcade

"She cheated!" The dragon that just came out of the game shouted angrily as he came out of the game.

"No she didn't." I say without taking my eyes off the screen. The dragon grumbled in irritation at my reply.

"What game can I just smash things in to work off my frustration?" The dragon asked.

"Far corner is nothing but boss fights. Pick one you like or just hit random." I answer. A few moments later I heard him get sucked into another game.

"Oh man! It's just a dopey looking skeleton in a hoodie!" I heard the dragon complain from inside the game.

"It's a beautiful day outside. Birds are singing. Flowers are blooming. On days like this kids like you... should be burning in hell." Another voice called out.

"...What's with that one glowing eye?" The dragon asked.

In the game

Finally after a while of attacking Swift's forces had managed to break down the front gate to red town and moved inside where all of the citizens were running around screaming.

"Ignore them. Let's just get the flag and go!" Swift ordered and her and her troops moved quickly towards the town hall and climbed the stairs to find the red flag waving in a non-existent breeze. Quickly she moved up and reached out her hoof to claim her prize only for her hoof to pass right through it. "What?" She asked in confusion as she looked the flag up and down only to find hastily drawn runes under the floating flag powered by a gem in the center filled with light pink magical energy. Realizing what must have happened Swift moved quickly to the windows and started looking around only to see some sword fighter troops carrying away crates of canon balls, arrows and barrels of gunpowder that have been set up like a carriage with a blue unicorn riding on top holding a red flag like a conquering hero. Trixie even looked back and waved at Swift with a smile.

Grumbling in annoyance Swift looked around at other towns to find her next target knowing Trixie was too far gone to get to her before she reached the blue town which was most likely hers. The fact that she had no ranged fighters with her and the fact she also took extra ammo for such fighters meant that it wasn't worth the effort of attacking that town when there were so many others. Though she did smile as she left because just before she turned to leave she saw a black knight and his troops spring an ambush and start to surround Trixie.

" Stop! Give me the flag or die!" Bloody Horns shouted out to Trixie who was still looking behind her. "Stupid mare, pay attention or I'll have my troops open fire!" He shouted but the unicorn's ride just kept coming. Snorting in annoyance he signaled for his archers to open fire only for the barrage of arrows to pass through the now evaporating group. Slowly Bloody Horns turned around just in time to see Trixie and her troops shimmer into existence as they entered the blue town and the gates closing behind her. "Calf of a- Come on!" Bloody Horns said to his troops as he saw another black knight attacking the white town and quickly moved his troops to set up another ambush.

After a while of sitting and waiting in some bushes Bloody Horns finally saw his fellow black knight running back with a flag in his hand and half of the troops he took with him gone. With a smirk Bloody Horns and his men jumped out of their hiding places and surrounded the battered forces of his fellow black knight.

"Hello Tina." Bloody Horns greeted making the other black knight stop dead in her tracks. "You've done enough of this in our bandit days to know how this is going to work. Just give up the flag and you can have a chance at getting another." The other black knight looked around her at the archers around her ready to attack on command and at the half full life bars over her own men. Grumbling Tina tossed the flag letting it touch down at Bloody's hooves. Taking the flag Bloody Horns nodded and left with his men to get back to his town. Tina then took this chance to run for her town to switch out for fresh troops before making another attempt.

The Arcade

"Well this is certainly getting entertaining. Now it's time for a surprise player." I say as I bring up my options. "Hmmmmm... What do you think Discord. Want to chose which one?" I ask pointing to the screen.

"Do I?!" Discord asked as he leaned in closer for a closer look. "Eeny, meeny, miny you!" He said as he pushed a button.

In the game.

Jumping from rooftop to rooftop dodging arrows that flew to take him out Cluck made it to the edge of the town and ran up the wall and jumped off. Cluck was tired from carrying two flags on his back but didn't have time to rest so when he landed he was ready to keep running but stopped when he saw a tall green thing with no arms and four legs frowning down at him as it ran towards him. Cluck gave a confused cluck at the sight. Not knowing if this was a citizen or an enemy but when the creature hissed menacingly and started to flash he decided not to test it and ran left just barely getting out of the creatures blast radius taking a chunk of the wall with it. Cluck gave a surprised crow but was unharmed. Then he turned to get back to his town and his beak fell open and his eyes bulged at the thousands of angry green exploding things littering the fields and the many that were charging at the surrounding towns. Cluck was suddenly happy he decided to leave all of his troops to guard the town and come out here himself as he ran like he never ran before.

Using his speed Cluck moved in and out of the hoards of exploding green monsters until he made it to his town which to his horror was about to be overrun by those things so he quickly charged forward and with his skills took the flags off his back and threw them over the wall giving a cluck ordering his men to put the flags in the flag room. While that was happening Cluck used his now lighter weight to quickly run around his town aggroing the dangerous monsters and dragging a small army of the things behind him. Looking around him in worry as he is already tired and he has no idea of what to do with the steadily growing army behind him.

"What the buck is going on out here?!" Trixie demanded as she climbed the wall to see why all of her long ranged defenders were suddenly attacking the outsides of all four of her walls. When she saw the raging battle in the middle of the map was ended by a swarm of exploding monsters she was suddenly glad that in the two towns she raided she had the presence of mind to take all that extra ammo because they were probably going to need it. Her thought were interrupted by a dinging sound and she looked up into the sky to see a timer counting down.

"Five more minutes in the game." Trixie mused aloud to herself. Looking down at the creatures outside that were moving in on her town Trixie felt confident that her troops can keep them at bay in that time with all the ammo she got for them. "Still better safe than sorry." Trixie said aloud as she charged up her horn and cast a spell. "Sorry. Trixie knows this is a dick move but Trixie will have this promotion!" Trixie declared as she created an illusion of a random pony and made it run around her town for a few minutes before making it run to another town. As the illusion got further and further away Trixie strained more and more until she had to let it drop from the strain. As she laid there panting she was happy to see that the creatures were still moving in a straight line on their collision course. "The great and powerful Trixie wonders if the owner of that town is even still in the game." Trixie mused.

"@$%^$! %^@^&$! ^%!%! %$$%#%^! up your #$^%#! in the ^%#%^! shower with a plugged in toaster!" Someone shouted from the town Trixie was looking at.

"Well that answered that question." Trixie said halfheartedly.

Later outside the game.

"Congratulations Swift, Unyielding, Cluck, Trixie, Bloody, Vinyl and Table. You have all done well and earned your promotions! This is Sirik the dwarven blacksmith. He will be creating your new weapons from ebony." I say gesturing to the dwarf in the room who waved at everyone. "The rest of you that use weapons you can get replacement dwarven made weapons in the next room. Not as good but much better than the easily mass produced steel ones you all have now." I announce gesturing to the door. For now however please enjoy the party that Pinkie insists we all need!" At my announcement the room was filled with cheers as everyone went to have fun. And while you do that I still need to test these druid spells Ax gave me before to see how my dark magic changes them. Then later today I need to head over to Ax's world to babysit. I thought to myself as I sneak away from the party.

"Well if it isn't the little escape artist." I say as I spot that same baby changeling that keeps getting away from the daycare toddling around. "Smells like you've been away from your mommies for too long." I comment as my sensitive nose picks up on the loaded diaper.

"Help! Get me out of here!" A voice squeaked from the baby.

"What?... Lyra!? Oh no hold on!" I say as I pick up the child. "Lyra where are you?" I asked as I carefully opened the baby's mouth and checked inside.

"Down here! Please hurry!" She called up causing me to check the baby's legs and find Lyra jammed in one of the holes in the hind left leg.

"Oh good. That's a much better place than where I first thought you were." I say in relief.

"Will you just get me out of here already! You won't believe the things this child has stepped in!" Lyra shouted so I pulled her out with my magic and grew her back to normal size.

"I really am sorry about this. I have no idea how this kid keeps getting away from the others like this." I apologist.

"...Yes. A natural born infiltrator." Lyra replies slowly while giving me the stink eye. "Just give me a portal back to Bon-bon and the shower in our room." With a sheepish grin I create a portal while sending a signal to Shit Storm to have his fellow pigeons keep an eye on her.

"Come on you little stinker. Let's get you back with your mommies and siblings." I say as I grab the kid with one of my tails and carry her back to where she belongs.
