Chapter 3: The return of Chaos

Everypony were all in a state of nervousness as the sky had changed once again for an unknown reason. They had actually calmed down a lot because they had seen their princess return to them along with six other mares, one of which was Luna, the long lost princess that had been told through stories.

Princess Celestia, Luna, and the five bearers of harmony were at the moment in the main portion of the library.

Luna sat next to the window looking up at the sky while the others discuss what had happened

"What in tarnation happened back there!" was heard from Applejack

Rarity looked to the apple mare in displeased manner "really dear, there is no reason for such a loud exclamation." she looked toward Celestia who was deep in thought and was staring at the crown that belonged to the bearer of magic "but I believe that we deserve to know what had happened to dear Twilight."

Rainbow Dash flew up in the air with an angry look on her face "yeah! We got the elements of Harmony and beat that evil mare but then Twilight goes and turns into that Midnight Shadow! What the hay happened?!"

Celestia sighed as she put the crown down. "I am unsure as to how this had happened to Twilight but she could very well become the biggest threat to Equestria."

"It was the darkness that once held me."

Everypony looked to Luna who just kept her gaze outside

"During my imprisonment, the darkness that held my heart had gained knowledge of itself. It maintained my Nightmare moon form as a means to cause chaos once free. I was an unwilling pawn in its scheme and continued to be Nightmare Moon. when the Elements of Harmony were used to free me from it, it was not destroyed. Merely removed from me. It took hold on Twilight since she had the most magical potential out of all of us." Luna turned to face the others, letting them see that she still had tears in her eyes "My little Twilight is now in the clutches of a darkness that had festered for a millennia and the only way to bring her back has now become useless since it requires all six of the elements to remove it but she herself is the bearer of magic." she looked back to the sky as her tears began to fall once more "my daughter's safety was the only saving grace that kept me from falling deeper into darkness…...and yet the moment I get her back…..she is taken away from me once more."

Pinkie popped up in front of Luna with a big smile on her face "hey! We can still get her back!" she dissapeared from Luna's shocked face as she popped up from under a pile of books "all we need to do is find somepony else to use the element of magic!"

Celestia sighed as she shook her head "unfortunately that is easier said than done. Twilight was the bearer of magic because of the amount of potential she had. Out of everypony I had ever met, she is the most gifted. For someone to be able to use the element of magic, the pony would need to have an immense amount of it. However, no pony has anything close to the required amount.

As they spoke about this, Spike sat in his bed crying about what had happened to Twilight. She was everything to him. His caretaker, his boss, his older sister. And now from some evil goo that came out of nowhere, he had lost her. "...Twilight…"

Suddenly they all heard a loud thundering crash outside the library.

Luna looked out the window to see that some lightning had struck somepony.

In a panic, they all began making their way outside but before they could open the door, they heard several more crashes and some screaming. They burst through the door to witness several ponies that were outside, being struck by purple lightning.

Celestia moved over to one of the ones struck "are you alright?!"

The stallion that she asked merely got up from the ground before looking at Celestia "yes I am fine but….who are you?"

This had shocked the mares as they would expect everypony in Ponyville would know who Princess Celestia is, especially since they just had the Summer Sun celebration.

"Sister!"

Celestia looked to Luna who was looking at the town. She followed her gaze and saw that several more lighting strikes were hitting more ponies. 'These aren't random! They are targeting them!'

"Princess Celestia! Everyone!"

The mares looked to see that Mayor Mare (this is cleverly funny) running towards them.

Mayor Mare stopped in front of them and began to speak through panicked huffs "what is happening here? The lightning is striking everyone, whether they are outside or inside!"

Before any of them could answer Mayor Mare was struck hard, causing her to scream and everypony to cover their eyes from the light. Once this was done Mayor Mare was on the ground.

The bearers moved to help her up while asking if she was ok

Mayor Mare shook her head before she asked "well hello. Who are you? And…..who am I?"

They were all shocked to hear the Mayor ask this but before they could wonder long, Celestia brought up a shield over them to block a few lightning bolts aimed at them. Celestia had to keep the shield up as it kept getting hit over and over again.

Rainbow Dash began to freak out "what's going on!? There wasn't supposed to be a storm today! And What happened to the Mayor!? Why are we being hit by that!"

Luna used her magic to help Celestia keep up the barrier as she spoke "it would seem that anyone that is struck by these magical lightning strikes, lose their memories! I am unaware where it has come from but I feel something dark in it.

Celestia frowned as she picked up from here "I know where it has come from…."

Everypony looked to her before she finished

"...it is Midnight Shadow…."

They all paused when they heard this as this was something they didn't expect to hear

Luna faltered a bit when she heard this. Her daughter was the cause of this chaos and it hurt to know that this was in a sense her fault."

Applejack moved forward "hol on. You saying all this mess is from Twilight? But why?"

Celestia did not have the chance to say anything since she grunted in concentration now that the barrier was now being struck from all sides. Both sisters were using all they had to hold back the onslaught.

Spike was trembling in fear as he hid behind Pinkie Pie "what are we going to do?"

No one had an answer as they knew that they would not be able to keep this up for long

"Oh my! What a delightful sight. I would like to continue watching but maybe we should take this somewhere else."

They all heard a voice that came out of nowhere and before they could say anything, they disappeared in a blink of an eye.

The mares found themselves in a dark cavern that had no light source. The only things that were visible were their eyes

"What the hay happened?!"

"Hey partner watched were your stepping!"

"Darling please get off my tail!"

"Um….sorry"

"Hahaha we look like floating eyes."

After a bit more scuffling Spike asked noticed something "1….2…..3…..4…..5….6….7…..8…...9? Who is the ninth one?"

Celestia noticed the same thing and glared at the extra set of eyes

"Aw, looks like you figured it out sooner than I would have liked. Oh well."

Suddenly a lightbulb popped up, floating in mid-air and lighting up the cavern.

Celestia glared at the newcomer with contempt as she spoke one name "...Discord."

Discord who was sitting in a floating coach and with a soda hat on his head, smiling at the mares "Celestia…..and Luna!...it has been ages."

End of chapter

I know this is ridiculously short but I am having a hard time coming up with stuff for this fic. I will be doing my best on this but please know that compared to y other fics, this one will have a long wait time between chapters. I have watched the first season and honestly out of all characters I have seen so far, Pinkie Pie and Discord are the ones I like the most. Pinkie Pie is ridiculously funny and Discord got my vote because when you pour yourself a glass of chocolate milk and only Drink the glass before tossing the milk behind you just to explode….that made me laugh.

I have an explanation for how Discord came to be but that will be explained in the next chapter most likely.

Not much to say since this is really short but see you readers, next time
