TR ch 3
Discord looked down at Rainbow Dash.
"You know it's polite to asked before taking one's cloud."
Rainbow smiled cheekily "Oh I so sorry Discord" she turned but kicked the cloud making it disappear. "But your service has been canceled!"
Discord signed opened his umbrella and floated safely down.
Applejack stomped right up to him "And where in tarnation have you been?!"
"I have been struggling over the hardest task I even taken." he said dramatically
"What? Helping us?" Rainbow Dash snorted
Discord glared at the pegasus "No, I have been struggling over what to give Twilight and Ash as a wedding present. Don't you all have wedding gifts?"
Rarity smirked "Oh I had mine planned and ready not a moon after Ash proposed. I made a one of a kind evening dress for Twilight and a new casual suit for Ash."
"I am building Ash a mini-party canon so he can have it onboard his train." Smiled Pinkie "And for Twilight I made a list of all the new cake recipes I haven't made yet."
Discord rolled his eyes and they fell on Applejack. She chuckled slightly "Well, I have been saving a 100 year old Hard Apple Cider that I think Ash and Twilight will enjoy."
"Did somepony say Cider?" Rainbow Dash but her answer was a face full of AJ's hoof. "I said Ash, NOT DASH!"
"And YOU Fluttershy?" Discord smiled at her
"I built them a baby crib."
"A WHATTT!?" everypony cried
"A baby crib. When it comes time for Ash and Twilight to have a baby they have a place for him or her to sleep." she answered
"Awwww.." went everypony getting a image of a cute baby in it's crib.
Discord perked up "I've got it!" and he teleported all of them to the tree of harmony.
"I have noticed that Twilight has not opened this little chest yet?"
Rainbow Dash stared at him "Yeah so?"
"So what if whatever is inside my prove Twilight's royal worth. She has been down on herself for not being in the game as it were."
"How did you know she is upset!?" Pinkie Pie Asked
"Oh it's ease-dropping on your friends not the way to find out how they feel?" Discord smirked. The rest of the Mane seven glared at him.
Discord laughed heartily while putting on a coat "Give this to Twilight next time you see her, and tell her that it will bring her closer to opening that chest." 'snap' A brightly colored present appeared on Rarity's horn. "Well I am off the meet my new partner."
"No need" came a voice from the dark everypony turned to see a black unicorn with yellow eyes coming out out the darkness. His mane was fire red with black tips. Lets just say he got the eye of a young mare.
'Bad-bmp'
Rarity felt her heartbeat quicken as she gazed at the stallion. 'He is very handsome but why is my heart beating so fast.'
"So you must be that unicorn Ash speaks highly of Shadow was it?" Discord scans over the unicorn. Shadow nodded to him and turned is attention onto the girls.
"My name is Shadow the Darkness Chaser. Ash as told many story about you all." he said in a slow but even toned "It is a pleasure to meet you Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, and Miss Rarity." he lingered a moment longer on Rarity than the others which only Rarity and Discord noticed.
"It was nice to meet you Shadow." Fluttershy waved
Shadow nodded and turned to Discord "I know that Ash and the Princess trust you but let's make this clear I do not trust you. If you make one step that makes me doubt you, have no problem taking apart and feeding you to the fishes." he step pass Discord and went into the chaos door.
Discord looked back at the ponies with a WTF face. "Well" he said recomposing himself "I will be back in time for the wedding and our afternoon tea Fluttershy." and he was gone.
"Was it just me or did Discord get rattled by that unicorn back there?" Applejack muttered to no one. As they headed back to town they discussed the new pony while Rarity continue to wonder on her new emotions.
Later that day Ash and Twilight returned from the Crystal Empire.
"Wow, everything is coming together." Twilight awed at the work that had been done for the wedding.
Just then Derpy landed in front of the couple. "Your invitations have been delivered plus we have all the decorations done." she said with a wide smile.
"Thank you Derpy" Ash nodded and they went back to the library.
They went inside; Lucario and Gardevoir were in the kitchen prepareing for dinner, Spike and Pikachu had the eggs in hand talking on how much fun they will have once they hatch. Ash pulled out a book and began read; his usual practice to unwind. Twilight petted Howlutious then notice a present on her table. She picked it up and read the note on top.
'Twilight, Discord believes that you have been down being a princess with no title.' Well he's not wrong 'He thinks that the chest from the tree of harmony hold some answers and what ever in in this present will help you.
Sincerly,
Your Friends
She opened the box and found the journal that they have been keeping records of their adventures. She rolled her eyes but noticed that some pages had been marked 'What do I got to lose.' so she began to read Discords notes.
Late that night in another part of Equestria another pony fell as his magic was stripped away from him. Terik groaned as his power began to return. Spotting his next victim he quietly comes up behind.
"Terik I presume?" Discord smirked wickedly
Terik was confused but noticed who is prey really was. "Discord you're free?"
"As a bird" he sifted into a toucan.
"Then I congratulate you upon your escape" Terik bowed
"I am afraid the feeling isn't mutual" Discord snapped his fingers and chains latched onto Terik. He tried to fight Discord but his magic had yet to be fully restored.
" I might have known that you wanted Equestria al to yourself."
Discord now in a police uniform chuckled "Sorry but wrong answer."
Then red and black magic tied Terik' legs together and he fell with a thud. He turned to see a black unicorn with reddish black magic holding him down.
"Terik you are under arrest for stealing magic from ponies." Shadow said dryly he then turned to check on the other pony.
"You work with ponies now" Terik asked in amassment
Discord smiled "I do this for my friends but between you and me its mainly for Ash and Fluttershy."
"Fluttershy, you mean you are friends with these ponies?" still not getting the angle
"SURPRISE!" Discord singed as cake went everywhere
"Discord i am trying to work here" Shadow called out as cake fell on his head
Terik smirked as a plan formed in his head. "Friends aye, you must have really must have restrict yourself to be come their friend."
Discord was taken back "No I have not."
"But you have a ponysitter watching your every move huh?" Terik smiled "Believe me their so called friendships is just another form of imprisonment. He feel victim to it but he was always the sort one. Don't fall for the same trap as my brother. If you join me I can give you something worth more than friendship. Freedom."
Discord wonder for a moment but Terik continued "Once I have stripped ever pony of their magic nothing would give me greater pleasure than watching their world be turned upside down. And who better than the Master of Chaos himself. Join me and fulfill your greatness. Or is pony arran-boy is what you want."
Discord looked back and notice a picture of him with Fluttershy and one with him and Ash making funny face.
Shadow still healing the poor pony felt a sudden rush of magic.
"Sorry Shadow."
