Chapter 1: a walk through a portal.
a/n I don't own anything except the OCS minus Mint Writer, because she belongs to WTHeckamiwatching. Thanks!
2 years later.
It was a warm sunny day, about a quarter until two. Eris's family were having a picnic in the middle of the Everfree. Despite the warmth, the once thaw lake was now frozen over with purple and orange ice. Eris and her younger sister, now ten, skated about occasionally slipping. Fluttershy was teaching Zany how skate with discord beside her.
Eris then heard a loud thump, having the affect that everyone turned their head towards the noise. Zany laughed mischievously at his deed. As it turns out it was Fluttershy's friends and their entire families.
Suddenly Eris had the urge to yell " I didn't do this time! I swear!" Discord chuckled and Fluttershy greeted her friends while apologizing at the same time.
Clarity and Charity, Rarity and Fancy Pants's daughters galloped over. Until midway they slipped abruptly. They got up gracefully and curtsied, for what ever reason, Eris didn't know.
"hey girls! How are you?"
"We're fine, thanks!" They said in unison. 'I wonder where Banana Split and his sister are. Banana Split and Banana Creme were the adopted son and daughter of Applejack and Spike. When Eris spotted them they were both standing by their parents.
Eris had only met them five days ago. Banana Split was her age; twelve. Eris also saw Mara playing with Twilight and Flash Century's adopted kids, Rosebudd, Crescendo and Mint Writer.
Suddenly Eris felt a sharp sting on her back. When she turned to see what it was, it turned out to be a snow ball." Snowball fight! Kids vs. parents!" Some one called. Discord then created one polka dotted fort and one checkered fort .
Everything was flurry of multi-colored snowballs. On the kids side, Zany used pots and metal strainers for helmets. Meanwhile Discord used Viking Helmets. Mara and Rosebudd were pretending to be the generals although they threw more snowballs than commands. Meanwhile Mint Writer was furiously writing something in a note book. It wasn't until snowball hit her in the back of the head that she joined in on the fun.
Then a thought entered Eris's mind.' I think I know how to win.' She smiled deviously.
"Speed, Sped!" The other pair of twins bolted over. The two looked exactly the same except Sped was a girl and had Grey eyes rather than green. " I think you should do what you do best. Thunder and Lightning!"
The twins soon shared the same look as Eris. She watched as they took to the sky unnoticed. Thunder cracked and lightning flashed successfully melting the checkered fort. The children cheered once they realized they had won. They high fived and destroyed their own fort in the process.
Discord had made it rain chocolate milk, but before it touched anypony it evaporated. " What the? This doesn't make any sense!" Mint Writer said as a drop nearly landed on her nose.
" Making sense! What fun is there in making sense?" Discord said.
"None, Daddy!" Zany called out.
" Exactly!" Eris told him. Although sometimes making sense was quite helpful in most situations.
Suddenly the wind started to blow strongly. Dark clouds loomed over head. What used to be a frozen lake thawed. Leaving the group in knee-high mucky water. Eris picked Zany up as the water was at his waste. " Okay, I know I'm the King of Not Making Sense, but this doesn't make sense! This is weird!"
Twilight gasped." The curse! It's here!" Eris heart rose to her throat. She was beginning to panic." Before you start panicking..." 'Too late.' Eris thought. " I think I know a spell that should protect some of us from it. Unfortunately it only takes six."
" But Twilight! We all have..." Pinkie stopped to count all the kids." 13 kids! We won't have enough cupcakes!"
" Twi? We could only send the youngest." Applejack said cautiously.
" That's a good idea. Quick everyone youngest to oldest!" Everyone got in order, starting with Zany and ending with Raspberry Pie.
" Okay! Zany, Crescendo, Mint Writer, Rosebudd, Mara, and Banana Creme."
Twilight conjured up a blue portal. It swirled around constantly changing the shade of blue. Everyone said there goodbyes, some sadder then most. Eris watched as Mara stepped through the portal with Zany's hand in hers and slowly started to fade away. Eris joined her parents as the storm overtook everyone and everything.
... Mara's POV
" where in Equestria are we?"
