Twilight Sparkle awoke to the sounds of screaming ponies. "What's going on out there?" she wondered as she looked out the window. She gasped at what she saw. Ponies were running left and right from what looked like giant ice cream cones.

She and Spike ran outside just as the rest of the Mane 6 were getting to the front of her house. "What do ya think this is about, Twi?" Apple Jack asked. Pinkie Pie was busy catching an ice cream cone. "All I know is-" she pause to take a lick. "-it's delicious!" she shrieked happily as she chased another cone. "I think we need to talk to Princess Celestia about this." Twilight suggested.

Suddenly, Discord appeared by them. "No need to tell Celestia! Everything is under control!" he said, worried. Rainbow Dash raised an eyebrow at him. "What's got you all worked up?" she asked. Discord shook his head. "Nothing. Why do you ask?" Twilight thought his behavior was suspicious, too. "Discord, did you do this?" she asked. He shook his head again. "Of course, I didn't." "Then, who did?" Rarity asked. Discord shrugged. "I don't know. Why don't you ask the princesses?" he asked annoyed. Twilight shrugged. "Okay, we will." she said as they started walking to go to the train station. Discord stopped them. "No, no! There's no need to! I've got this under control." he assured them. Then, he snapped his fingers, sending them all back to their houses, and departed.

The next morning, Twilight went to pay Discord a visit. "Discord?! Are you home?" she asked, peeking her head through the mouth of the cave Discord lived in. "Twilight! What a pleasant surprise!" he greeted. "Discord, what happened earlier? Why didn't you want us to tell Princess Celestia about it?" she asked. Discord frowned. "How do I know I can trust you and the others?" he said, crossing his arms. Twilight rolled her eyes. "Why couldn't you trust us?" she countered. Discord groaned in defeat. "Fine. I'll show you. Get the others and meet me back here." he said. Twilight was worried by his serious expression. What's got him so troubled? she thought.
