NOTICE: I decided to try something different, so-o... here you go! This take place since before Discord was- ahem, "reformed." This is more of an intro than an actual chapter, but I'll add more chapters extremely soon!

Pinkie Pie paced back and forth, thinking deeply. She glanced over at the book on her bed she had picked up from Twilight a few hours ago and shook her head, walking towards it.

Discord had never hurt anypony. Why should he be punished for it?

The idea has been driving her crazy for over a month now. She liked what Discord could do with his magic- chocolate rain from cotton candy clouds, dancing bunnies, checker boarded walls; it all felt mutual for some reason. But why would chaos be such a bad thing?

She opened the book and skimmed the table of contents like Twilight had taught her to do a while ago.

Discord: Lord of Chaos: Chapter Nine...Page 132

Perfect. She opened up to that page and stared at a picture of a slightly younger Discord. She giggled at his small, curly beard and read through the sub-titles eagerly until she found one that said EXPLANATION FOR PUNISHMENT.

"Discord wreaked chaos all over Equestria," Pinkie read out loud quietly. "He took away all alicorn/unicorn magic and flight agility so as not to be defeated. Ponies seemed to be losing personality traits and becoming who they weren't, including the princesses. Animals became much bigger and smaller and threw off ecosystems, habitats, and food chains. Buildings were being vandalized and ruined, and crops became candy and junk food." Pinkie shook her head as she realized that the paragraph had ended. "So a few flipped houses and chocolate rain and you're thrown into stone for a thousand years? That's not right!" She shut the book and placed it on the nightstand, beginning to think again.

She wanted to hear Discord's side of the story. The book never mentioned anypony getting hurt! Maybe this goes deeper than she thought.

Pinkie suddenly got an idea that would get ponies thrown into jail... unless she could keep it a secret.

But she couldn't risk it.

Unless she could.

Argh! If only she weren't so illogical! Pinkie hopped onto her bed and groaned, laying on her back. A few moments passed before she bothered looking at her pink alarm clock.

Eleven o'clock exactly.

Pinkie never stayed up this late unless she was having a good time with her friends. She suddenly realized how tired she felt and shook her head. She clicked off her lamp, sliding under her blanket gropingly. She rested her head on the pillow and sighed. "I'm going to do it," she whispered softly. "I'm breaking Discord out tomorrow."
