"Gohan! Why did you kill your father!?" Chi Chi yelled.

"B-But mom... I-I didn't-" "Yes you did, don't you lie to me!" Chi Chi interrupted.

"I-I'm not lying!" Gohan said, tears forming in his eyes.

"Yes, you did Gohan." Another familiar voice said.

Gohan looked to his side to see no other than his father, Goku.

"D-Dad!?" Gohan asked.

"You killed me! You got me killed! Gohan, you're the worst!" Goku yelled, pointing at Gohan.

"What a shame." Another familiar voice called. It was Vegeta.

Gohan looked to his other side to see Vegeta.

"A boy with so much potential, now running to a land of girl dreams to avoid punishment for killing his own father. How disgusting." Vegeta said.

"B-But..." Gohan said.

"I can't believe you were my mentor." Future Trunks said behind Gohan.

Gohan turned around.

He donned his Saiyan armor.

"How could you just let Goku die? The 'honorable' man you preach about, you murdered!" Trunks said.

"I-I didn't kill him! I-I swear!" Gohan cried.

"You did kill me Gohan, You DID!" Goku yelled.

Piccolo appeared.

"I should've left you to die a long time ago." He said, taking off his weights.

"Let us finally punish you, you ungrateful murderer." Vegeta said.

"W-What!?" Gohan cried.

Goku, Trunks and Vegeta all went Super Saiyan.

Chi Chi disappeared.

Gohan was cornered, and let himself believe he was a terrible, ungrateful murderer.

Gohan was close, he was turning dark.

Things seemed very bleak...

Then...

"No, Gohan!" A similar voice called.

Gohan immediately stopped turning dark.

"D-Dad!?" Gohan called.

"That's not me, Gohan!" The real Goku said in Other World.

"Yes, you murderer?" The fake Goku said.

"Gohan, they're fakes! Remember, you didn't kill me!" Goku called.

Gohan wiped his tears.

"You're right, dad!" Gohan said, turning Super Saiyan.

"DIE!" The fake Vegeta yelled.

Gohan only stood there. "You're not real." He said.

The fake Vegeta instantly stopped.

"You guys are just my memories..." Gohan said.

"That's it Gohan!" Goku said.

"Discord, show yourself!" Gohan yelled.

The illusion disappeared.

Discord appeared in front of Gohan.

"Well, well, well. It didn't work! How swell." Discord said.

"Your species alone confuses me. I'm not even thinking about how confusing you are when you talk." Gohan said, reverting back to his base form.

"How did you figure it out? I'm DYING to know." Discord said, appearing next to Gohan.

Gohan turned to his side and attempted to punch Discord.

Discord teleported a few feet back.

"Jeez, I'm just asking you a question..." Discord said, a halo suddenly appearing above his head.

"Can you leave?" Gohan asked.

"Oh, fine. It seems my magic doesn't work on you anyways. Ta, ta." Discord said before teleporting away.

Part of the bush wall collapsed, revealing Twilight, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rarity and Fluttershy.

"Oh hey! Thank goodness I found you guys." Gohan said, running up to them.

"Please tell me you're not insane either..." Twilight said, still holding Rarity's diamond.

"I-I'm not. Why?" Gohan asked, taking the boulder off of Twilight. He held it over his head.

"Thanks. They're all acting so weird!" Twilight said.

"No we're not!" Applejack said, making that weird face again.

Gohan couldn't help but snicker at the lie.

"WHAT ARE YOU LAUGHIN' AT!?" Pinkie Pie yelled in Gohan's face.

"W-Whoa... I see what you mean, Twilight." Gohan said.

"Thank you very much for holding my diamond, Gohan." Rarity said.

"Oh, your- Wait, diamond?" Gohan asked, looking up at the boulder.

"Don't get any ideas of stealing it! I found it, so it's MINE!" Rarity said, pointing a hoof at Gohan.

"Uh... Alright..." Gohan said.

"Oh, too bad, Rarity. Your 'diamond' will be stolen, oh my that's SOOO bad." Fluttershy mocked.

"H-Hang on, when did you start talking like that, Fluttershy?" Gohan asked.

"It means nothing to you!" Fluttershy yelled.

"I think we have a serious problem." Gohan said.

"Agreed. I just hope Rainbow Dash doesn't go insane!" Twilight said.

***

Rainbow Dash was speeding through the maze, watching out for any obstacle.

But then she just saw a cloud with... Rainbow lightning?

Rainbow Dash thought it was an Element of Harmony.

"I've got you now, Element!" She said, chasing the cloud.

The cloud led her straight to... Discord laying on a cloud hammock? With sunglasses?

"I can see why you like these clouds so much, they're very plush!" Discord said.

"Get off there and put 'em up!" Rainbow Dash said, standing on two legs and using her forehooves as fists.

Discord sat up. "Hey... I'm just here to deliver a message!" He said.

Rainbow Dash threatened with her hooves being thrown at the air. "I got a message for you too!" She exclaimed.

"Listen closely." Discord said seriously, taking his sunglasses off. "This, is important." He said, suddenly moving all around Rainbow Dash.

"A weighted choice is yours to make. The right selection, or a big mistake. If the wrong choice you choose, you pursue the foundations of home will crumble." Discord said, finally stopping moving.

He snapped his fingers, and the cloud with rainbow lightning spun in front of Rainbow Dash, in an attempt to brainwash her.

He showed something grim.

He showed her home, Cloudsdale crumbling, being destroyed.

"No!" Rainbow Dash yelled.

A present appeared in front of Rainbow Dash.

"That box contains your wings. You may take them and leave the game, or you can carry on in the maze, aimlessly lost." Discord said.

With that, Rainbow Dash was turned dark.

"Your choice." Discord said.

***

Twilight, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Fluttershy and Gohan were still wandering.

Gohan was still carrying Rarity's 'diamond'.

"I know Rainbow Dash will find us, she's always there for us!" Twilight said.

"Well lookie there, Rainbow Dash's flying away! That's no surprise." Applejack said, pointing a hoof at the sky.

"Now I know that's a lie." Twilight said, looking up.

Twilight was wrong.

Rainbow Dash had her wings and was flying away!

"W-What!?" Gohan exclaimed.

Then, all of the maze walls fell, and storms filled the skies.

"Well, well, well." Discord said.

"Somepony broke the 'no wings no magic' rule!" He said, snapping his fingers.

This gave Rarity and Twilight their horns back, and Fluttershy her wings back.

"Game's over, my little friends!" Discord said, pointing at everyone.

"You didn't find your precious Elements!" He said.

He made an umbrella appear, and it was upside down.

"Looks like we might be due for a big old storm of CHAOS!" He said, lightning bolts flying everywhere.

Discord cackled.

Gohan set the boulder down, flew up to his dragon face and punched it.

Discord walked back a few steps and made his inside out umbrella disappear.

"It seems you have challenged me. Very well." Discord said.

Gohan flew at him again, carrying two ki blasts.

"Gohan, no!" Twilight yelled.

Gohan stopped to look back at Twilight.

Discord used this to shoot a blast of fire at Gohan.

Gohan received the full blast, which didn't do much damage or knockback except for ruin his gi with cuts and gunk.

During all of this, the rest of the Mane 6 were all in an argument.

"Ha, ha!" Fluttershy kept repeating.

"STOP IT!" Pinkie Pie yelled.

"No, haha ha ha, ha!" Fluttershy said.

Rarity was protecting her 'diamond'.

Applejack stepped beside it. "Hey Rarity? Twilight said we should split this 'diamond' seven ways since we, found it together." She said.

Rarity kicked Applejack away. "Don't try, punk! He's mine, ALL MINE!" She said before charging at Applejack with a barrage of attacks.

"Girls, why are you guys acting like this!?" Twilight asked. "We need to stick together!" She added.

Gohan and Discord were evenly matched.

As a result, ki and magic flew everywhere.

Gohan appeared behind Discord and performed a double axe handle.

Discord teleported before he reached the ground and appeared behind Gohan.

He used an explosive spell on Gohan, sending him flying towards the ground.

Gohan recovered, landing gently on the ground.

At this point, he had minor cuts on his arms and face and his orange shirt was partially ripped off.

"It seems you and I are very evenly matched! This is fun." Discord said.

"Not for long." Gohan said, turning Super Saiyan.

"W-What? You only... CHANGED YOUR MANE! Hahahah!" Discord laughed.

Gohan smirked, and punched Discord in the stomach in an instant.

Discord stopped laughing, and realized how much stronger Gohan was than him.

He recoiled and bent over, grabbing his elongated stomach.

He teleported beside Twilight. "Our game must end for now, this has been true entertainment." He said.

Discord snapped his fingers to create a dark clone of Gohan, who he sent to fight.

"What the heck?" Gohan asked.

The clone was already a Super Saiyan.

"Stop it, Discord! You're not playing fair!" Twilight yelled.

Gohan had to deal with a random weaker, but substantially powerful clone of himself.

The clone charged at Gohan, and Gohan charged at him.

The battle started with a clash of fists and kicks.

So, he was occupied with that.

"Not fair? Perhaps we haven't met! I'm Discord, the spirit of chaos, and disharmony? Hello?" Discord asked.

"How are we supposed to find the Elements of Harmony when you took away the labyrinth before we could get to the end!?" Twilight asked.

"Oh wait, did you?-" Discord said, sitting on a random couch he summoned before laughing.

"Oh, how funny! You thought the Elements were IN the labyrinth!?" He asked.

He took Twilight back in time to remind her of what Discord said.

"Twists and turns of my matter plan, then find the Elements, back where you began." The past Discord said.

He took Twilight back to the present.

"I never SAID that they were in the labyrinth!" Discord said, walking away.

"B-But... But!" Twilight said.

"Keep trying, Twilight Sparkle. Maybe the 'magic of friendship' can help you! Now if you'll excuse me, I have some chaos to reek!" Discord said, snapping his fingers and teleporting away.

During all of this, Gohan and his dark clone were battling.

Gohan and his clone threw many more punches and kick at each other. There was a ton of blocking, parrying and actually landed hits.

The dark clone kicked Gohan multiple times before kicking him down to the ground.

He charged up a tremendous blast and fired at Gohan.

Gohan took the blast head on, and received quite some damage.

But, he wasn't done yet!

Gohan landed gently on the ground, flew up to his dark clone, and grabbed him by the leg.

He spun his dark clone around many times.

Eventually, he threw him up even further and fired a full power Kamehameha at him.

This attack ultimately killed, and destroyed the clone.

Gohan was pretty exhausted. His gi was in pretty bad shape, plus he had a few cuts, scapes and bruises. Especially the small gash in his shoulder.

Gohan sat down, panting.

"A-Are you alright, Gohan?" Twilight asked.

"Y-Yeah.... I'll be... I'll be fine." Gohan said, looking to his side.

Then, the cotton candy clouds returned, and they rained chocolate milk again.

"Chocolate milk!?" Pinkie Pie asked.

"I hate chocolate milk!" She exclaimed.

"They have definitely gone insane." Gohan said.

"Ugh, think Twilight, think!" Twilight said, thinking as hard as she could.

Rarity was carrying her boulder, and Applejack jumped on it.

"Don't touch my gem!" Rarity said.

Fluttershy flew by. "I'm touching your gem, ha, HA!" She said, touching Rarity's gem.

"What are YOU laughing at!?" Pinkie Pie yelled.

Twilight groaned.

"I just want to go home! Wait a minute... Home! Back where you began!" Twilight said.

"Do you think that's where those elements are?" Gohan asked.

"Yes, let's all go!" Twilight said.
