Chapter 15: A Matter of Principals

After the clone encounter and the battle with Chrysalis has been dealt with, things have finally cooled down for a while now for the Mane Sixteen.

A week later, Chase and Twilight were teaching the students a new lesson about ancient artifacts.

Spike helped open the chest, revealing seven ancient artifacts from different countries and a special addition after the battle with the Quinkan at the Hollow Shades. It consisted of silver colored amulet with bluish gem-like known as the Amulet of Aurora, a bug-themed scepter with golden a gem called the Talisman of Mirage, an ancient armored helmet with horns named the Helm of Yksler, a golden Griffon-themed crown called the Crown of Grover, an ancient mage's bluish colored hooded robe from Clover the Clever's Cloak, and finally the black gauntlet from the Quinkan Leader, Emperor Zhao.

Twilight levitated seven ancient artifacts in midair for the students to look at. They awed in amazement about them.

"Who can tell us what these are?" Twilight asked calmly with Chase beside his wife.

"Whoa." Sandbar said in awe.

"Me likey." Gallus said with a smirk.

"Shiny!" Yona said as she smiled.

"Wow." Bolin said.

"Amazing." Korra said wondrously.

"Treasure?" Smolder guessed.

"Nope! They're all legendary magical artifacts!" Ocellus beamed, causing the other students to turn to her.

"How'd you know that?" Mako asked confusingly as Ocellus laughed nervously a bit.

"I've read ahead in Equestrian Cultures and Camaraderie: Volume Seven." Ocellus answered while holding the book.

"You're right, Ocellus." Twilight said calmly while introducing each and every artifact, "This is the Amulet of Aurora, the Talisman of Mirage, the Helm of Yksler, the Crown of Grover, Knuckerbocker's Shell, Angelic Wings of Hope and Clover the Clever's Cloak."

"And this one is from the creature Equestria has always feared until he was finally destroyed, Zhao's gauntlet." Chase added as he used his magic to levitate Zhao's discarded gauntlet, surprising the students in the process as they gazed at the armored weapon with stunned looks.

"So that's his last weapon you got from him, Headstallion Chase?" Smolder asked Chase while gazing at the gauntlet along with her fellow classmates.

"Yup. I know you may have heard this, but my last battle with Zhao took place in the Netherworld after I stabbed the Sword of The Shadows into his chest armor and allowed the energy to destroy him." Chase replied back before he levitated the gauntlet back into the chest.

"And the gems are real!" Spike exclaimed happily, making Twilight and Chase suspiciously look at him. He yelped, "Eh, not that I... tasted them."

"Right, like you did to the other ones." Chase remarked, making Spike glare at him indignantly as Twilight giggled before she settled down.

"Princess Celestia gifted these to our school, since they each represent one of the cultures our students come from." Twilight continued the lesson. " And we'll learn all about them in a Spell-venger Hunt!"

The students glanced at each other with confused looks.

"Spell what?" Mako questioned.

"Is that a pony thing?" Smolder leaned to Sandbar.

"Eh." Sandbar said while he shrugged his shoulders as Chase and Twilight went up to them.

"It's a magical scavenger hunt." Twilight explained, "Each of you will work in pairs to try to find where in the school these artifacts are hidden."

Once Twilight explained, she flew up as she and Spike shared a high five.

"The team that finds the most wins a private tour of the Canterlot Archives with Princess Celestia." Spike added.

"And it will also allow you guys to check out the new and improved White Lotus Clan's Museum of Mythical creatures from the latest info Master Pakku Shisho has granted for the princesses." Chase added as Twilight giggled with a nod.

"Learning and fun?!" Silverstream squealed excitedly. "Does it get any better than that?!" She then flew down and sat down.

"You've been underwater for a long time, haven't you?" Gallus asked dryly.

"Well, the Hippogriffs were forced to hide from the Storm King." Korra said, reminding the griffon with a firm look on her face.

"Gallus, Silverstream, Korra, and Mako, sounds like you're our first two pairs!" Twilight announced happily as she, Chase, and Spike placed the artifacts back in the chest.

"Hey, I bet we can find four artifacts before you can find even one." Korra challenged Gallus with a smirk.

"Oh, you 2 are on!" Gallus said while grinning, accepting the challenge when the students gasped strangely.

"What? They'll make a great team." Twilight said confused of them, but Chase soon knew what they were gasping about as he looked at his wife's flanks and his eyes widened in surprise as there was a flashing sound.

"Um, why Pony glowing?" Yona asked with her hoof raised in curiosity.

"Honey, I think you might wanna look at your cutie mark." Chase said to Twilight, gaining his wife's attention as she extended her left wing and saw her Cutie Mark flashing.

(Scene changes)

Rushing out from the School of Friendship as well as getting the rest of the Elite Ninja together, Twilight, Chase, Jade, Sunray, Trini, Antonio, and Spike made their way to the Castle of Friendship's Council Chamber.

To their surprise, the rest of the Mane Sixteen have been gathered inside the chamber. The group gathered at the throne room, where they found their cutie marks glowing and floating on the table.

But strangely Chase, Jade, Sunray, Trini, Antonio, Sokka, and Clay weren't called for some particular reason.

"Wait. You all were called on this friendship quest, too?" Twilight asked in surprise.

Chase, Jade, Sunray, Trini, Antonio, Clay, and Sokka were all visibly surprised by this, but were also suspicious about why they have been summoned.

"I don't get it. The last time we were on a mission was when our last battle took place at the Hollow Shades with the Quinkan." Chase said with a confused look.

"Yeah, why would the map send you guys somewhere and not us?" Jade asked curiously while looking at the map with her family and friends.

"It must be a really important one." Fluttershy said with a concerned look.

"And terribly far away." Rarity added while she pointed at the map.

Everypony approached the Cutie Map. They're looking at their own cutie marks floating and levitating at an unknown area, which is located very far away from Equestria. They all looked worried and concerned about the situation.

"Just getting there will take days!" Rainbow complained.

"Do y'all know what this means?" Applejack questioned with concern. "There won't be any teachers left to run the school!"

The others, minus Chase, Jade, Sunray, Trini, Antonio, Sokka, and Clay, gasped in realization.

*Main theme*

The group all became concerned and worried that they're now in a tight situation.

"Just what we need now…" Sunray said in annoyance.

"So what're we gonna do about it?" Antonio asked with concern. "We won't be able to handle this much at the school since there's only seven of us not going."

"Antonio's right." Chase said in agreement with his older cousin as he turned to face the six girls. "I don't think we can handle the teaching without you guys gone."

"Should we send our students home?" Fluttershy suggested.

"I say we take 'em with us!" Pinkie said. "Road trip!"

SMACK!

"OW!" Pinkie shouted in pain while rubbing the back of her head as she turned to see Chase giving her a stern glare.

"We're not doing that, Pinkie!" Chase said sternly as Pinkie backed down from the alicorn stallion's glare. "If we do, their guardians will be worried sick about them, which would also lead to war on where they might be."

"Chase is right, and in the middle of my friendship quilting class? I think not! All of those unfinished seams!" Rarity said in agreement and then faints, but Fluttershy caught her.

The Elite Ninja gave Rarity an unamused look as Chase pinched the bridge of his nose and Jade facehoofed herself in annoyance.

"Problem is we don't even know how long we'll be gone." Applejack said as Clay nodded in agreement with his wife.

"Honey, where do you think we're gonna find some more teachers while you and the rest of the gang are gone?" Chase asked Twilight as his wife smirked and kissed her husband on the cheek.

"Don't worry, honey. I think you, Jade, Sunray, Trini, Antonio, Sokka, and Clay will be fine for the first eleven teachers." Twilight said confidently as she brought a big scroll. "And I already have a 70-point plan in place for this situation."

Chase saw this and seemed a little unamused by this.

"Why do I get the feeling this is gonna end backwards?" Chase asked as Twilight groaned in annoyance.

"Have a little faith in your wife, will ya, honey? I really got a plan." Twilight said to her husband.

The others glanced at each other while Chase, Jade, Sunray, Trini, Antonio, Sokka, and Clay still felt suspicious of what could be making the rest of the group's cutie marks glow.

Were they really being summoned or is it something else?

(Scene changes)

After the discussion with her friends, Twilight, Chase, Jade, Sunray, Trini, Antonio, Sokka, Clay, and Spike returned to the School of Friendship's Headmare Office. They summoned Starlight, Nyx, and Darkshine to the alicorn couple's place for discussing with them about the latest situation that Twilight and her friends will be dealing with. They were in shock and concern about it.

"You want me to become headmare?!" Starlight asked in concern and disbelief.

"And you want me to stand by her and Daddy's side as well, Mom?!" Nyx asked her mother with concern.

"You guys are a perfect choice to be by my husband's side as well as our family, Sokka, and Clay." Twilight said firmly as she nodded and turned to Starlight. "You and Chase are good leaders and experts in friendship. I trust you both to run this school exactly as he and I would, Starlight."

Chase was in his chair as he and Starlight shared an unsure look while Nyx seemed a little concerned about this.

"Uh, that's a pretty big responsibility, Twilight." Starlight said a little uneasy and worried.

"Yeah, honey." Chase said with an unsure look. "I really don't think this is a good idea."

Just as Starlight was about to walk away, Twilight used her magic to grab the lilac unicorn and placed her in the headmare chair next to Chase.

"Which is why I've prepared everything you need." Twilight said with a smile as she rang a bell and coming was Spike with a wheel-barrel full of books and scrolls.

"Oh boy. This should be entertaining for us." Chase said as he watched Spike unload them on the desk and Twilight brought out different items.

"The curriculum, rules for the Spell-venger Hunt, dining hall menus for the next six months…" Twilight explained as she smiled.

"Six months?! You're not really gonna be gone that long, are you?" Spike asked in disbelief.

"That's not a good sign." Darkshine said with concern.

"Spike, Nyx, and Darkshine will assist you, Chase, Jade, Sunray, Trini, Antonio, Sokka, and Clay with this." Twilight added calmly while bringing Spike on top of the scrolls. "Anything that isn't covered in my files, they'll be able to help you with."

"Then why not put them in charge?" Starlight asked curiously as she pulled her head out of the scrolls, causing Spike to panic after hearing that.

"No-ho-ho, thanks. Eh, being a princess for Twilight was hard enough. Plus, Chase wasn't really happy about it." Spike said as he crossed his arms.

"And I'm only good with making sure that all of the students are well prepared for their homework as well as their studies. Not exactly interested to be the headstallion around here. Being the strict one in this institute is more of Chase's job." Darkshine said while gesturing to Chase.

"And that's why we're on our own." Chase said to Starlight with a blunt look as the lilac unicorn sighed with a facepalm.

"I'm gonna pretend that made sense." Starlight said, remembering that time they told her. "But if you're sure it's what you really want, I promise I won't let you down."

"I knew I could count on you." Twilight said happily while heading out with a suitcase. "As I said before guys, Darkshine and Spike will help you out."

"You can count on us, Twilight." Darkshine said with a salute as Twilight exits the room before she reappeared and gave Chase a loving kiss on the cheek.

"Have fun, honey!" Twilight said as she left the office again while Chase waved to his wife goodbye, but still felt something was really going on.

"Great. What could possibly go wrong?" Starlight asked dryly after the scrolls started coming down and Spike fell.

"I can think of a couple good reasons." Chase said with a blunt look as Starlight turned to him with a flat look.

(Scene changes)

A short time later, the six girls ran off to their friendship quest as Chase, Jade, Sunray, Trini, Antonio, Clay, Sokka, Starlight, Nyx, Darkshine, and Spike waved goodbye to them.

"Come back soon! Please!" Starlight said hopefully.

"Be careful out there!" Chase shouted hopefully as well.

"Bye, honey!" Sokka shouted as Clay waved as well with a teary smile.

"Don't worry, Starlight. You've got this with Chase," Sunray said calmly, "Plus, you got us to help you guys around."

"I hope you're right, Sunray. Because being a headmare to the school is no joke." Starlight said with a sigh.

That's when Chase felt another presence as he turned to see Discord standing beside them as the others turned to him as well. He blew his nose with a handkerchief.

"I hate goodbyes, don't you?" Discord mocked with tears. He then broke into pieces while he exclaimed, "I just go to pieces."

"Oh no!" Sunray said in annoyance. "Not you, Discord!"

"Discord! What a... heh... nice surprise!" Starlight greeted uneasily and nervously, making Discord give them a thumbs up as the Elite Ninja glared at him unamusingly.

"Huh, that's a nice greeting to see you here, buddy." Sokka said with a curious look.

"This is your first time at our new school, isn't it?" Starlight said and Spike nodded.

Chase, Jade, Sunray, Trini, and Antonio looked at him with suspicion as if he might have something to do with the girls on their friendship quest.

Discord quickly reformed and restored his pieces into one solid body. He split into three clones, one wore a grayish colored suit, another wore a sailor uniform and kid's propeller cap and last one wore a graduation suit.

"Oh, was I not invited to the grand opening? Friends and Family Day? Baccalaureate?" Discord Clones asked one-by-one before he asked in unison annoyingly, "I hadn't noticed."

The Discord Clones magically disappeared before reemerged into one as he was still glaring at his friends.

"Well, at least you're here now." Starlight said as she looked worried while Chase and his family glared at him. "Um, why are you here now?"

Discord smiled slyly and cunningly while looking at the School of Friendship.

"To fill in for Twilight, of course, as head-draconequus while Chase is the headstallion. I seem to recall a whole song about how this school is where you make your own rules. Now, who better at that than me?" Discord asked with a sly smirk.

"Haven't you heard, bonehead? Starlight is incharge now with Chase by her side." Darkshine said with a scoff.

"Really? I thought there must be some mistake." Discord said while glaring at Darkshine as Starlight shook her head calmly while showing her scroll.

"Nope. Twilight picked me for the job to be by Chase's side. And she left pretty detailed instructions for us to follow." Starlight said as Discord took the scroll and read it.

"Well, I'm sure that she wouldn't mind a few tiny suggestions." Discord said with a smirk.

"I don't think so, Discord!" Chase shouted firmly as he quickly jumped up to grab and brought the scroll down. While rolling up his scroll, he continued sternly, "Not gonna happen. Whatever kind of screw loose idea you have is not gonna happen here! My wife and I would never ask for an imbecile like you to help us! You're not permitted to do anything with the school!"

"EXCUSE ME?!" Discord asked angrily and annoyingly.

"Chase does have the point. We promised Twilight I'd handle this her way." Jade said in agreement with her brother.

"And it's not gonna happen." Starlight added firmly as Chase handed her the scroll and she took it with her magic. So thanks, but no thanks."

"Reeeeeeally?" Discord asked annoyingly. He scoffed, "Well, we'll see if you change your mind."

With that, he snapped his fingers as Discord magically teleported out. Everyone sighed in relief that he hasn't started causing the problem now.

"That was close," Sunray said in relief. He groaned, "I really hate to go through that."

"Yeah, the last thing we need is another one of Discord's scams going through the school like this." Trini added with a scared look on her face.

"Yeah. But I have a bad feeling about this. Discord's not gonna like this one." Spike said with concern. "When we play Ogres and Oubliettes and he puts that many E's in "really", the things don't usually end well."

"Don't worry, Spike." Starlight assured. "Discord and us are old "save Equestria" buddies. He'll be fine. Now, what's next on Twilight's list?"

"Let's go inside so we can get to work on it." Chase requested as they all returned to the School of Friendship, they proceeded with working on the tasks that Twilight had set for them.

(Scene changes)

On the next day, Chase, his family, Sokka, Clay, Darkshine, Spike, and Starlight continued their duty in the School of Friendship. They have handled and managed the school administration, teachings and counsels especially preparing the upcoming event – Spell-venger Hunt. The students were chatting happily while heading off to their class.

Starlight and her school staff are at the school lobby while discussing the latest report they have. They're heading straight to the headmare and headstallion's office now.

"Okay. I hid the artifacts for the Spell-venger Hunt and ordered school supplies for the week." Spike said calmly while looking through the scroll, "All you guys have to worry about is teaching class."

"Yup. Clay and I've already arranged the substitute teachers for the school subjects and lessons they're capable of." Sokka said in agreement while looking at his clipboard.

"And we'll make sure that nothing will happen for this event too, Chase." Clay said to Chase as the alicorn stallion nodded to him.

"Thanks, guys." Starlight said with a sigh. "Maybe we will get through this okay."

"Yeah, I guess we should be okay." Jade said with a worried look.

Just as Starlight and her school staff arrived and entered the headmare and headstallion's office, they found something shocking and disbelieving. The office is completely in chaos and disorder, filled with ridiculous yet unusual and messy atmosphere and designs. The place is almost like a jungle, pillars became a tree-like pillars with peacocks on top and were surrounded by miniature houseblocks, two windows trapdoors-like with thundering storm inside, antique cupboards with unusual materials, an office table set on top of the tree and a large cup on small island in middle of the pond, where Discord happily working and typing on his typewriter on the bread.

"What the?!" Sunray asked in shock and confusion.

"Come in, come in." Discord said sternly while eating the bread, "You'll let the twittermites out."

"Twittermites?" Spike and Nyx asked in confusion.

Suddenly, the swarm of Twittermites were flying straight towards Spike. They gave a powerful electrical shock on Spike, making him yelp in pain before jumping into the pond as Nyx dodged them. He coughed heavily before getting off from the pond.

"Discord! What are you doing?!" Starlight demanded.

"Nopony was at your desk. Imagine what Twilight would say." Discord mocked amusingly. He then transformed into Twilight. She mocked, "Oh, how could you, Starlight?! You've broken my trust and failed me completely!"

POW!

"OW!" Discord shouted as he saw Chase glaring at him sternly.

"That's not funny, Discord!" Chase shouted as he and his family glared at Discord angrily.

"You clearly have no idea what you've been doing, have you?!" Sokka asked Discord, who smirked in reply.

"Oh, don't worry, Sokka. I'll cover for you all. By the way, I hope you like Limburger cheese. I got a month's supply for the teacher's lounge." Discord said, placing the wig over Starlight's head, snapped his his fingers, and a crate appeared. And it opened revealing a huge wheel of cheese and it rolls out.

Spike was trying to keep the Twittermites away with bug spray. And then he saw the wheel of cheese rolling at him, and runs. But he didn't get far as the wheel dropped on top of him. He was able to break free, but he smelled badly as they covered their noses.

"Okay, Spike, you need a bath." Jade said in disgust. "In triple time!"

"We'll take it from here, Discord." Chase said and then pushes Discord outside. "Go relax. Have a cup of tea. At home."

Chase tries to close the door, but Discord blocks it.

"Oh! Some thanks for all my help." Discord said. "And after I hired all those substitute teachers for you."

Spike finally pulled himself from the cheese block.

"Actually, that does sound kinda helpful. And it was on our to-do list." Spike added as he brought out the list.

"Which teachers did you hire?" Starlight asked suspiciously.

"Yeah, who did you bring?" Trini asked.

Discord smirked as Darkshine groaned in annoyance.

"I'm almost afraid to find out what he's done." Darkshine said with an irritated look on his face.

(Scene changes)

Discord guide and led Starlight and her school staffs to Fluttershy's Classroom. They found most of the students including Sandbar, Mako, Ocellus, Yona, Korra, and Bolin looked very nervous and scared. They're facing and looking at Iron Will, who sternly glanced at them.

"They call it 'making friends', because you have to make creatures be your friends!" Iron Will said firmly and seriously. He then pointed at Yona, "Show me what you've got, yak!"

As commanded, Yona moved to the front.

"Be my friend." Yona said quietly as she gulped fearfully.

"If you're quiet, I don't buy it!" Iron Will snapped at worried Yona.

"Be my friend!" Yona roared out loud, even though she feared and worried as Iron Will groaned.

"I've heard pudding that's more convincing!" Iron Will shouted.

Panicked and scared now, Yona did it.

"Be! My! Friend!" Yona screamed in fear yet louder.

The students looked scared and feared before they all ran off at once.

Yona was shocked and hurt to see it, though Iron Will looked very pleased with the results. The Elite Ninja, Starlight, Nyx, Spike, Sokka, Clay, and Darkshine were shocked by this.

"Oh, this is not perfect at all." Sokka said as he glared at Discord angrily.

"Who else did he get for teachers?" Chase asked curiously yet annoyingly.

(Scene changes)

At the Buckball Field, the students were helping and giving hospitality to Cranky Doodle Donkey, who was resting on the beach chair in the middle of the field. Cozy Glow, disgusted, used a nail file on his hooves. A unicorn was massaging his back legs and a Pegasus was fanning him.

"Some fieldtrip! Where's my iced tea?!" Cranky Doodle Donkey complained. Gallus appears with a glass of iced tea, and gives it to him as he drinks. But then sips it at his face. "This is too cold!" Gallus flew off, and came back with a new glass. He takes a sip, but sips again. "Not it's too hot!" Gallus, now becoming annoyed, left and came with a new glass. Cranky takes a sip, but sips again.

"Now it's too tea-flavored!" Cranky shouted angrily as he knocked the platter from Gallus. "You call yourselves friends?!"

Nearby, Starlight, Chase, and Spike watch from the bushes.

"That is definitely not how Twilight teaches friendship." Spike said as Chase nodded in agreement while Discord drinks from a glass.

(Scene changes)

In Twilight's class, it was actually a tree and that had the students with confused looks while Silverstream awkwardly placed an apple on the desk.

Starlight, Chase, Jade, Sunray, Trini, Antonio, and Nyx were equally confused as well.

"You hired a tree as a teacher?" Starlight questioned Discord.

"Are you kidding me?" Chase asked.

"Its schedule was free." Discord said.

"Uh, guys?" Spike called while blocking his nose. "That's not just any tree." Then suddenly, Smolder let out a violent sneeze sending her back. Spike blew his nose. "It's a dragon-sneeze tree."

Suddenly Smolder sneezed again as Starlight, Spike, Chase, Jade, Sunray, Trini, Antonio, Nyx, Darkshine, Sokka, and Clay ducked. Discord just held a stick and roasted a marshmallow. Then the students ran out of the class avoiding getting burnt and Smolder left as well to get away from the tree.

Soon the students were running across the school.

"W-W-W-Wait! Calm down, everycreature! Starlight called. "It's gonna be okay!"

"Calm down, guys!" Chase shouted out as well. "We'll figure this out!"

Then suddenly Yona came through the wall leaving a Yona shaped hole in the wall.

"BE MY FRIEEEEENNNND! Yona yelled and beats her chest like a gorilla before she ran off.

"Mmmm, my, my, my." Discord patted Starlight on the head. "You do seem like you're over your head. Won't Twilight be so disappointed with how you're all ruining-I mean running her school?"

Starlight panics and her eye twitches. It was then Chase was at his limits as his temper began to rise.

The alicorn master was becoming extremely annoyed and irritated with Discord's mockery as he almost exploded.

"QUIET!" Chase shouted in his royal voice.

Everyone quickly stopped and get quiet at once while shockingly yet fearfully looked at Chase. His family, friends, and fellow school staff also were worried about him and his temper. Discord looked surprise by his reaction as he used his magic to bring out a megaphone.

"All the so-called 'substitute' teachers, leave the school at once!" Chase ordered firmly while using his megaphone, "All the students that have suffered some minor injuries, go to the medical wing so Jade can patch you up! NOW!"

"And if we don't?!" Iron Will demanded.

Chase activated his Lightning element and fired a bolt of electricity at Iron Will, sending him at a wall as he yelped in pain.

"Any more objections?!" Chase demanded impatiently.

All the substitute teachers including Iron Will and Cranky Doodle Donkey panicked and ran for their lives by exiting out of the school. And at the same time, the injured and wounded students including Mako, Yona, Korra, and Cozy Glow were sent to medical wing for treatment.

Chase panted heavily and exhaustingly as he tried to calm down. Jade, Sunray, Trini, Antonio, Sokka, Clay, Darkshine, Nyx, and Spike were worried and scared now. Discord has mixed feelings of amusing yet worried and nervous about Chase's temper.

"Remind me not to get on his bad side," Nyx said fearfully.

"Uh huh." Spike said in agreement as Starlight turned and glared at Discord.

"Discord!" Starlight angrily said. "This is all your fault!"

"Mine?" Discord said, acting innocent. "I thought you were in charge here. But I'm happy to pitch in if you all need me." He then flicks the bag off his baseball glove as it hits the floor.

"We were as if an idiot like you hadn't interfered with our work!" Darkshine snapped angrily. He showed his clipboard, "I've already prepared the substitute teachers, not some wannabes!"

"And what we need is for you to leave!" Starlight said.

"Like now!" Sokka added sternly. "And don't ever harm the students ever again!"

Discord smirked slyly as he snapped his fingers. He magically transformed into a big grayish-brownish leaf-like. He playfully nuzzled her.

"Happy now?" Discord asked.

"We said leave, not leaf!" Clay said annoyingly.

"Come on, Discord." Spike said, impatiently. "You know that's not what she means."

"Fine!" Discord said, annoyingly and then moved over to the window. "From now on, I won't try to help. At! All!" Then the wind carries him away.

"And don't let us catch you here again!" Jade called out angrily as Starlight groaned in relief.

"Thanks, guys." Starlight said in relief, "Let's just hope he stays gone."

Knowing that Discord isn't going to give up that easily, Spike shook his head in disagreement.

"I wouldn't count on it." Spike said as Chase, Jade, Sunray, Trini, and Antonio were agreeing with him. "I think Discord's trying to test you."

"You know, he is a real handful sometimes, but what's his problem lately?" Sokka asked curiously why Discord was doing this.

"I don't know, guys." Chase said as he still thinks Discord wasn't going to give up that easily. "But something tells me he's becoming more of jerk than usual."

"But what is it that he is acting like this?" Sunray asked really confused like the rest in here.

"I don't know, Sunray. But why? I thought we were friends." Starlight said.

"Well, it's kinda what he does." Spike said. "Even to ponies or dragons he cares about."

"Oh, well, I'm ready for him." Starlight said up for the challenge as they approached a picture frame of Twilight.

"I told Twilight I'd run her school right, and I'm gonna keep that promise." Starlight said firmly. "No matter what."

It was then Chase felt something behind the picture frame and glared angrily at it. Then he relaxed as he turned to the others.

"Why don't you guys go on and make sure the students are alright?" Chase requested as the others turned to him. "I'm just gonna stay here for a while."

"Okay, but hurry up." Jade said as she and the rest went to check up on the students.

Once they were gone, Chase glared unamusingly as he turned to the picture frame.

"Alright, Discord." Chase said sternly. "Are you gonna hide in there all day or are you gonna come out?"

The picture frame of Twilight blinked, revealing Discord's eyes as he groaned annoyingly and disappeared. He reappears again behind Chase as the alicorn stallion turns to him.

"How did you know it was me?!" Discord asked with an 'are you kidding me' look on his face.

"You mean besides your lame disguise?" Chase asked bluntly as Discord glared at him. "Come on, I know that something is bothering you, isn't there?"

"Me?" Discord asked innocently with a sly smile. "Why, whatever do you mean? After all, your wife has made you and Starlight incharge of the school. So why shouldn't anypony?"

Chase thought about what he said before he realized something as he glared at Discord angrily.

"Wait a minute! I know exactly what's going on here!" Chase said, shocking Discord. "You were only doing this because your jealousy got the best of you!"

Discord's eyes widened in surprise before he became nervous.

"Uh, well, what makes you say that?" Discord asked sheepishly.

"Oh, do you really think I'm an idiot?" Chase asked angrily. "If the map called Twilight and the others to a friendship quest, then why do I get the feeling this was all part of your act?!"

This made Discord uneasy and worried.

"Um, I-I-I-I… maybe I may have been a little mischievous the whole time just to express my jealousy towards you and the others." Discord admitted sheepishly.

"So basically, you were only doing it because we didn't invite you to help us out. Now let me see if I got it right. The cutie map calling the girls for a summons? Their cutie marks mysteriously glowing?" Chase asked sternly, making Discord groan in irritation and annoyance.

"Yes, yes!" Discord said impatiently. "I did all of those things! A glamor spell, a fake summons from the map, they were all my attempts to get rid of the girls so I can handle the school my way!"

"Well your way will not be tolerated around here! You know why?" Chase asked sternly. "Because you never learn anything! You hate school! You don't even care about anypony but yourself to put themselves in danger!"

Chase then walks away as Discord glared at him angrily as he groaned in frustration.

"I knew I should've gotten rid of you and your family when I had the chance as well." Discord said to himself while glaring at Chase before he smirked. "But I'm gonna enjoy testing you ponies if it's the last thing I ever do."

(Scene changes)

The next day, Darkshine, Starlight, Spike, Chase, Jade, Sunray, Trini, Antonio, Sokka, and Clay called in an announcement with the students. They are joined by Spitfire, Trixie and Maud, who Starlight and Chase hired to teach.

"Good morning, students!" Starlight greeted the students while gesturing to the three ponies. "I know there's been a little bit of adjustment since the professors left for their trip. But I've brought in new teachers. And now everything should run smoothly. Now it's time for class. And don't forget, this afternoon is the Spell-venger Hunt!"

"Boy, I can't wait." Korra said as she and the other students went to class.

"I still can't believe Discord would do this. Why?" Nyx asked her family as Chase turned to her daughter.

"She's probably just jealous that Twilight favors us better than him, honey." Chase said to his daughter before he muttered to himself. "Let's hope he's not gonna do this again."

"Either way, let's keep an eye out for him," Jade said firmly, "If he did come back here, we really need to talk with him privately about what he's really jealous about."

The others nodded in agreement with Jade.

(Scene changes)

In Twilight's classroom, students begin to settle for class when suddenly, Discord came through the doors wearing pants, a shirt, vest, and a cap.

"Yo! Greetings, fellow creatures!" Discord greeted in a Californian accent. He then appeared between Gallus, Ocellus and Smolder. "Is this seat taken?"

The three scooted away from him a bit with uncomfortable looks.

"What is he doing back here?" Mako questioned annoyingly.

"Up to no good again." Korra answered her friend with the same irritated look.

"This isn't gonna go well, is it?" Bolin said worriedly as Trixie appeared.

"Welcome, class!" Trixie greeted. "You may call me the Great and Powerful Professor Trrrrrri-"

Then suddenly she was cut off by a phone ring.

"Shhh!" Discord shushed. "Really, that's so inconsiderate!"

He then gestures to Trixie to continue. Then there was another ring, and Discord pulled out a bananaphone from his lunch bag.

"Oh, I better take this." Discord said and answers the bananaphone. "Hello?" Gibberish was heard through the bananaphone. "Oh, he did not! And what did you say?" Gibberish was heard. Discord gasped. "You did not!"

"Discord!" Trixie approached him. "Why are you here?!"

"Why, I'm a student of friendship, of course." Discord said.

"Not!" Mako said angrily, but Discord ignored that.

"Unless you don't think you're good enough to teach me." Discord said with a sly smirk.

"Of course I am!" Trixie said offend. "No fruit calls in my class!"

Discord un-peels the bananaphone and ate the phone.

And Trixie returned to the stage.

"Magic, is the most important element of friendship." Trixie said. "So, today I, the Great and Powerful Trixie, will put on a magic show!"

The students got excited and unknowingly Discord snaps his fingers.

Trixie removes her hat, and then pulls out a Pigasus. Trixie pushes it back in and sheepishly smiles and means to pull out a rabbit. She tries again, but pulls out Derpy. She pushes her inside, and feels around. This time, she pulls out a King Cobra and a Ursa Major as the huge beast roars.

The students quickly ran for their lives and left the classroom while Discord chuckled.

"I'm learning so much. Aren't you?" Discord asked mockingly.

Trixie realized that Discord played a trick on her and growled.

"DISCORD!" Trixie shouted angrily as Discord smugly left the room.

The Ursa Major and King Cobra vanished as Trixie placed her hat back on. Suddenly there was a ring, and she brought out her bananaphone.

"Eh, hello?" Trixi called confusingly.

Gibberish was heard.

"Um, what exactly is a long distance plan?" Trixie asked.

(Scene changes)

Meanwhile, Spitfire leaves as the class rest on a bench short of breath. But then Discord appeared with a coach outfit.

"Take a lap, team!" Discord shouted.

"Huh?" Korra asked as she lifts her head.

"Uh, actually, we just finished Professor Spitfire's workout." Sandbar said.

"Who are you?" Mako asked.

"Sounds like somepony needs a little motivation." Discord said and then blows his whistle.

Suddenly a flash appeared behind the bench as they looked and then a Bugbear appeared. The students took off running for their lives.

"I've never run so fast in my life!" Silverstream excitedly said. "Oh, this is great!"

"Well, then step on it!" Mako yelled with fear.

The students ran past Discord and Sandbar came to a stop.

"Hey, coach." Sandbar panted. "We need a break."

"Friendship is about honesty." Discord said. "So believe me when I say... WE'RE NOT STOPPING!" He then blew his whistle.

"Sandbar, run!" Apato yelled.

Sandbar took off running as Yona, Bolin, and Mako ran by with the Bugbear right behind them as the creature almost took a bite off of the three.

"Yee-ah!" Bolin jumped.

"Yona... can't run... faster!" Yona said.

"You're telling me!" Mako said. "But let's not stop right now!"

The Bugbear snaps at Bolin only missing him.

"AH! HEEL! HEEL! STOP! BAD BEAR! Bolin cried out worriedly. "Help me, Sauron!"

Then the three tripped and fell as the Bugbear ready's to sting them as Silverstream, Sandbar and Korra went back for them. Then suddenly a bright blue beam hits the Bugbear knocking it aside, enough to get the Bugbear to leave after recovering from the blow.

They turned and saw Starlight, Chase, Jade, Sunray, Trini, Antonio, Nyx, and Darkshine on the field and were not happy.

"Discord, that's enough!" Starlight said as Spike was behind them. "Endangering students crosses the line!"

"Discord, stop this, right now!" Sunray demanded angrily. You're scaring all of them and that's not very funny."

"We don't know why you're trying to ruin this school, but it stops now!" Starlight firmly said.

Discord got out of his outfit.

"I wouldn't be so sure." Discord said with a smirk as he then winked.

"This is your last warning." Starlight warned with her horn glowed threatening to fire.

"And I don't want you to do anything you might regret!" Sokka threatened angrily as well as he readied his boomerang and machete.

"You tell him, Starlight and Sokka!" Darkshine agreed firmly, "Teach that bothersome pest a lesson!"

"Hey-hey-hey!" Spike said, getting between them. "Take it easy, Starlight and Sokka! Discord's your friend, remember?"

"Well, he's not acting like it." Starlight said sternly.

"We do not appreciate him for his foolish act." Darkshine added while he glared at Discord angrily.

"And we don't appreciate him being so selfish either." Chase added angrily as Spike realizes they're right.

"She's right, Discord. What's your problem?" Spike demanded angrily as he turned to Discord

"My problem?" Discord questioned offendedly and angrily. "How is the fact that Twilight decided to put her husband, his family, his scouts, a unicorn stallion, and an incompetent, power-hungry unicorn in charge of her and Chase's school my problem?!"

Offended by that, Starlight then fires a beam at Discord, and he was soon gone. When it cleared, there was a huge dent left in the ground.

The students shuddered.

"Is he dead?!" Nyx exclaimed as she hid behind Chase and her father turned to her while hugging the alicorn filly with much comfort.

"Don't worry, he's not gone, sweetie." Chase said as he turned to Starlight. "You sure he won't be a bother to us, Starlight?"

Starlight laughed nervously.

"Don't worry, Chase. I just banished him from school grounds forever. He's fine." Starlight assured Chase and the students as they uneasily walked away while Starlight felt guilty.

"That probably made things worse." Spike said. "Why didn't you just talk to Discord?"

"Because he's right about one thing." Starlight said. "I've been doing a terrible job as headmare."

"Come on, Starlight. Discord was just being an idiot." Jade said. "And he pushed it too far."

"No, you haven't." Spike said. "Discord is just bein'... Discord."

"If by being Discord, you mean he's just being jealous." Chase said as the others turned to him curiously.

"You think that could mean if he was never invited in the first place?" Antonio asked his younger cousin and Starlight with a confused look .

"Maybe, Antonio." Starlight said. "But I wonder why me and Chase being in charge bothers him so much."

"I actually do know why he is." Chase said as then the school bell rang.

"We can figure that out after the Spell-venger Hunt." Spike said. "C'mon!"

They begin to head to the school.

(Scene changes)

A short time later, the students gathered around near Starlight and Chase as the lilac unicorn explains the Spell-venger Hunt.

"For this afternoon's Spell-venger Hunt, you'll need to use these artifacts' history to find where they're hidden in the castle." Starlight explained using a magic picture. "When you spot one, touch it with a magic shield to keep track of your score."

"My wife left the list of your hunt partners before she left. Spike will pass out the shields." Chase added as well as Spike hands out the wrist shields to the students before he was soon finished.

And Starlight brought a handle and gong.

"Ready... set... Spell-venger Hunt!" Starlight shouted as she struck the gong, and the students begin to head out.

"C'mon! We can use Twilight's observatory to watch the teams!" Spike said and they begin to head the observatory.

The students search around the school to find the artifacts.

Meanwhile, Smolder was partnered with Ocellus.

"I hope you know where you're going." Smolder said.

"To the Helm of Yksler!" Ocellus said.

"Eh, works for me." Smolder said.

Soon, they reached a hall with armored suits.

"In our book, it says Yksler was an honorable Yak warrior." Ocellus said. "Any enemies that saw him put down their weapons in peace. I think his artifact must be in one of these suits of armor."

Smolder looked around and then noticed a helmet with Yak horns.

"I'm guessing that one." Smolder gestured to it.

Ocellus looks from her book, and sees it as they brought their magic shield on it before they flashed.

"Yes! One down, five to go!" Ocellus said.

They high five, but Smolder accidentally knocks Ocellus off her feet.

(Scene changes)

From her telescope, Starlight watches as Smolder helps her up.

"So far so good. They're making much progress on the first part." Darkshine said as he noticed the spell-venger hunt going well for the first team.

"Awww, Ocellus and Smolder found their first artifact!" Starlight said.

"Hey, look at this." Chase said, looking through another. "Mako and Korra might find another."

(Scene changes)

Over with Korra and Mako, they were looking for Zhao's gauntlet.

"Okay, what do we know about the Quinkan so far?" Mako questioned.

"Let's see." Korra said in thought. "It was a Category five Quinkan. Zhao created the gauntlet from heavy weaponry from different ninja clans. Then he added a few additions of his own creating the one thing to slice through anything that would stand in his way"

They looked through a section of the hall with some artwork. And then, Korra spotted a familiar gauntlet on one of them.

"Hey, look what I found." Korra called out, seeing the artifact.

Mako went to her as they brought their magic shields near it and they flashed.

"Yes! I knew we find it!" Korra said excitedly as she beamed.

"Let's hurry if we want to beat Gallus and Silverstream." Mako said.

Chase smiled as he watched smiled proudly at his students and his family shared the same looks too. Starlight turns back to Ocellus and Smolder.

"Yeah. Wait! Starlight exclaimed as she got the others' attention, noticing something. "What's that?"

"What's what?" Sokka asked curiously

The suit of armor wearing the Helm of Yksler suddenly came to life. And approached Ocellus and Smolder.

"Uh, I don't think that's part of the Spell-venger Hunt!" Ocellus nervously said.

And then the suit attempts to ram, but they quickly got out of the way and started running. And with the armor chasing them.

"The school is haunted!" Ocellus exclaimed in fear.

"And not cool!" Smolder as well.

Starlight, Spike, Chase, Jade, Sunray, Trini, Antonio, Sokka, Clay, Nyx, and Darkshine gasped in surprise.

"Oh no, not again!" Chase said in surprise as he knew this was Discord's planning.

(Scene changes)

Meanwhile, Korra and Mako made their way through the hall. But unknowingly, emerging from Zhao's gauntlet, came a ghost figure of a Wingquin and it walked behind them.

This got Korra to glance back, and realized what she saw. She quickly turns to it and shakes in fear.

"Mako, Mako!" Korra exclaimed with a horrified look.

"Korra, what's the matte-" Mako said as he glanced behind and screamed in fright of the Wingquin. "Nah!"

The Wingquin ghost growled and stood high with it's wings spread out with a vicious glare.

"A WINGQUIN!" Korra and Mako screamed as they then zipped away and the ghost chases after them.

(Scene changes)

Meanwhile, in the library, Gallus and Silverstream were looking for any artifacts that might be in there.

"We're totally gonna win this Spell-venger Hunt!" Silverstream said.

"Yeah, I doubt that." Gallus said. "But at least I know where one of the artifacts is. Saw Spike hide it yesterday. And would like to beat Korra and Mako."

He then held his left arm up as his magic shield picked up a single near a picture frame of a Griffon.

Gallus smirks, and bumps the picture as it opens and reveals the Crown of Grover.

"The Crown of Glover!" Gallus beamed. "Score!"

They held their shields their the glover, and they flashed.

"They say it's magic and King Glover used it to become the first ruler of Griffonstone." Gallus said. "I know, pretty sweet, right?"

"You paid attention in class!" Silverstream smiled.

"What?!" Gallus exclaimed. "I-If you ever tell an-"

Then suddenly strangely the picture frame of the Griffon closed on it's own. Tthey turned as the picture's eyes glowed red and then came to live.

"Whoa!" Gallus amazed.

"3D painting!" Silverstream excitedly said.

Suddenly the frame came loose, and then started chasing them. Two ponies were reading as a Changeling picture came to life and hisses as it started chasing them. Same thing on the second floor and two ponies started running.

(Scene changes)

Starlight, Chase, and the rest of their group watched the whole thing, and then a ghost of Discord appeared as he laughed.

"Is it just me or is it really Discord doing all of this?" Chase aske Starlight with a flat and annoyed look.

"Yup, Chase. That's definitely Discord." Starlight said dryly as she lightly pushed the telescope away a bit. "This is not good."

"Ah, I should've known." Darkshine asked angrily as he growled.

"I thought you banished him from the school." Spike said.

"Only his body." Starlight corrected. "Apparently, his ghost can come and go just fine."

"Ah! Is he that hard to get rid of?!" Trini asked in annoyance.

"Come on, we have to get rid of him before he goes out of control!" Sunray exclaimed angrily.

"Let's go." Starlight said. "We have to stop this."

Starlight pulls on the rope as she and the others begin to lower down.

"How!" Spike asked. "No offense, but I think magic is the answer against Discord."

"Actually, he did fill me in on what he was really doing." Chase said as the others turned to him curiously. "This was all an act to get rid of Twilight and the others just because we never invited him to the school." The others were shocked by this as they were angry by what he's done. "I knew that this whole thing was a lie, but trying to hurt everypony like that is just low. Even for him."

"And how exactly are we gonna do this if we use magic on him.

"This time, I'm not using magic." Starlight said as and Chase smiled with a plan.

"And this time, we're gonna teach him a little lesson he'll never forget in his life." Chase added with a smirk as the others looked at him with smirks, knowing Discord was gonna get it big time.

(Scene changes)

Unaware of what's going on, Sandbar and Yona were looking for any artifacts.

"Um, what Yona look for?" Yona asked.

"The Shell of Knuckerbocker." Sandbar said. "It's like a seashell, but if you blow into it, you call a dragon! There's a sweet poem in our book about it. "Climb to the heights with dragon flight"." He then gapsed of having an idea. "Like flight of stairs."

"Yona take pony word for it." Yona shrugged.

She begins to head up the stairs, but as she took a step, she suddenly found it hard to move.

"Huh?" Yona confused.

She tries pull free, but she was stuck in the staircase as if it was glue. And then suddenly the stairs turn to quicksand.

"What's happening?!" Sandbar holding on to the stair's railing.

"Yona not know!" Yona panicked. "But Yona do know Yona not like Spell-venger Hunt!"

Sandbar and Yona slid down the trail of sand. Suddenly, Ghost Discord appeared as he laughed, and then flips on a lamp as the Shell of Knuckerbocker appeared. He takes it, and disappears through a wall.

All around the school, the students from the haunting things that Discord made. Soon the rest of the Young Nine joined Sandbar and Yona as Gallus and Smolder began to pull them out.

Ocellus tries to run, but is soon cornered by the armor suit as well as the Wingquin ghost and runs back to the others. They huddled together as the Quinkan monster ghost got near them.

Then Starlight appeared as Nyx, Chase, Jade, Sunray, Trini, and Antonio jumped down from the walls, landing next to the lilac unicorn as Darkshine appeared right be side them.

"Everycreature, stop!" Starlight shouted at the top of her lungs.

"B-B-B-But the school is haunted!" Silverstream stutters.

"It's not haunted. It's Discord." Starlight said.

"Discord, come out right now!" Darkshine demanded angrily. "Or I'll make you come out, and you'll be sorry for all of this!"

Suddenly everything disappeared as Ghost Discord appeared with all 7 artifacts.

"Headmare Starlight and Headstallion Chase!" Ghost Discord excitedly said without a care. "Look at me! Look! I won the Spell-venger Hunt! Well done, me! Now what's my prize?"

"Detention." Spike answered bluntly.

"A year's worth." Jade added sternly. "For threatening to close the school and everything else you did."

"Well, that's disappointing." Ghost Discord said upset and tossed away the artifacts, but Spike catches them.

"Discord, that has gone far enough!" Sunray snapped firmly and angrily, "I thought you won't do this again!"

"You can't keep messing up the school." Nyx said furiously as she nodded angrily.

"On the contrary. I think I rather can." Discord said. "And I will."

"Discord, you better be lucky you're a ghost right now." Trini warned with a stern glare. "Otherwise, I would've let a dragon mauled you right now."

"Then I have just one thing to say to you." Starlight said firmly with Chase next to her.

"Oh, do go on." Discord said as he floated beside them, sounding like he was ready for more of his scams.

"We're sorry." Starlight said, making Discord surprised by that.

"What?" Discord asked in shock as Starlight then used her magic and brought his body back.

"I had to stop thinking like a headmare and start to think like a guidance counselor to finally understand." Starlight explained as she gestured to Chase. "Chase told us everything of why you were doing this. You felt left out."

"And you were jealous of Twilight having Starlight beside me and my family so that you could get rid of them." Chase added gently yet firmly.

"Uh... I-I-I-I-I don't know what you're getting at." Discord stuttered as he turned his back from them with his arms crossed and had a bitter look on his face.

"You don't have to lie to us, Discord," Jade said calmly, "Nopony ever invited you to the school. And when you offered to help, we didn't listen."

"I was so worried about handling the school matters as headmare. I chose to ignore my own friends and do what I think it's best for the school. I'm really sorry for that, Discord. I would like to offer you a job." Starlight said with a calm smile.

"That is if you like it, buddy." Sokka said with a grin.

"Huh?" Spike and Darkshine asked as they were confused.

"Really?" Silverstream asked confused.

"What?!" Gallus questioned bitterly.

"Why?!" Ocellus asked.

"No!" Yona said.

"Him?!" Smolder said as she glared at Discord angrily.

"Totally confused." Sandbar said.

"After what he did?!" Mako angrily said.

The Draconequus remained silent while processing of what Starlight has offered to him before he smiled.

"I accept!" Discord beamed as he shook Chase and Starlight's hooves before he stopped. "I-I-I suppose I can find some time in my busy schedule to help out. But I will meed my own office, expense account, parking space..."

"You're new to the world of education, aren't you?" Spike asked bluntly as Discord glared at him unamusingly.

"Next time you want something, just ask for it, all right?" Starlight said.

"And don't do anything you might regret because karma will come back to you." Chase added with a smirk as he looked at something off screen.

"But then we'd miss out on all those delightful misadventures." Discord said with a smirk while holding Spike.

"Hey!" Spike shouted annoyingly as he pulled himself free from Discord's grasp. "Watch the wings!"

"Now, Vice Headmare Discord, if you'll help me get this Spell-venger Hunt back in order." Starlight said.

Discord snaps his fingers, and the artifacts disappeared.

"Everything is re-hidden." Discord said when a picture frame with a flower flowed off making Silverstream jump. Discord chuckled. "Well, with a few surprises."

Chase stared at him with a blunt look.

"You left them at home under your mattress." Chase said, making Discord gasped in surprise.

"Curse you, Chase Young!" Discord shouted angrily as Chase used his magic to bring the artifacts back and restored everything back to normal, this time normal normal.

"Now we should know that the girls should be back right about…" Chase said when the door opens as Twilight and the others appeared. They were completely messed up and were not happy. "Now."

"Discord! I can't believe you tricked us into going on a friendship quest that wasn't real!" Twilight said crossly.

"Oh, back so soon?" Discord asked as he frowned.

"A glamor spell on our Cutie Marks?" Rarity asked while she glared at Discord.

"A fake summons from the map?" Rainbow asked as she glared at Discord as well.

"Hey, at least we got to go spelunking in that really creepy cave with all those eyeless worm creatures chasing us." Pinkie said as she smiled while Rarity and Rainbow glared at her.

"Oh, Yona so glad ponies back!" Yona shouted happily as she hugged Applejack.

"Uh, y'all get the feelin' we missed somethin'?" Applejack questioned.

"Hi, honey." Clay said as she approached Applejack and his wife smiled at him with much relief.

"Hi, honey." Applejack greeted as they shared a loving nuzzle.

Sokka approached Fluttershy as they shared a loving kiss on the lips.

"You okay, sweetheart?" Sokka asked his wife gently with a smile.

"I'm fine, honey." Fluttershy assured her husband sweetly.

Chase approached Twilight as his wife turned to him weary.

"You knew Discord was up to this, didn't you, sweetie?" Twilight asked her husband with a nervous smile as Starlight, Jade, Sunray, Trini, Antonio, Darkshine, and Nyx approached the two alicorns.

"Yup. You know, honey. I think you gotta learn to never fall for that lunatic's act once and a while." Chase said as Twilight giggled.

"Thanks for taking care of the school, guys." Twilight said to her family and Darkshine.

"It was a challenge." Starlight admitted. "Heh. But I think things turned out just the way you'd have handled them."

"Though it might've been easier if someone didn't appear." Jade said as she gave a slight glare to Discord as they all walked off.

Spike flew up to Discord.

"Guess this means you're not vice headmare anymore." Spike said as he smirked.

"Oh, poo!" Discord disappointedly before he pulled out some business cards. "I just ordered business cards!" The cards flew by as one of them landed by Chase, who came back as he looked at Discord with a friendly smile as the draconequus turned to him. "Chase, I know what you're gonna say, but believe me, I am sorry for all of this. I guess I need to work on being a better friend sometimes in my life."

"I'm terribly sorry, Discord." Chase said with a mischievous smile. "I couldn't hear ya. Could you come closer? Maybe stand on the tile in front of you?"

"Uh, which one? The one that says 'Eject' or the one that says 'Trapdoor'?" Discord asked curiously as he looked at the two tiles in front of him and turned back to Chase, who gave a fake friendly smile.

"Oh, anyone will do." Chase replied back with an evil smile.

"What I said was-" Discord was about to finish as he stepped on the 'Eject' tile when Chase pulls a string and the 'Eject' tile launches Discord out of the School of Friendship as he screamed at the top of his lungs.

"YOU'LL REGRET THIS ONE DAY, CHASE YOUNG!" Discord shouted angrily as he landed on the ground with a loud boom. "OW!"

Soon the dust cleared, revealing a massive draconequus shaped hole like a cartoon as Discord weakly climbed out of it, bruised, battered, and dirty. He plops to the ground on his stomach as he had a bitter look on his face.

"I… Hate… School…" Discord said bitterly before he faceplanted himself to the ground.
