Lace say her evil self as the circled each other, "Man.. I look good!" Good Lace said laughing, the bad Lace spoke next, "I do agree." They both began to laugh but when the anti-Lace kicked the real lace, things got out of hoof.
Tyler looked at his evil self and said "Are you even real I mean are you like.. out of my body or is this all just one big dream?" "No you idiot this is no dream and yes I am real because well... im your evil" Just then the evil Tyler copied every other evil pony in the group and kicked Tyler right in the jaw. Tyler fell to the ground and cried "Come my army first stop is Celestias fortress but first" just then the evil figure snapped his figures and there was a sound of something transforming coming from behind them all. Tyler looked back and saw the Elements of Harmony get stuck in stone. "NOW we can go" said the evil figure and just like that him and the evil personas were gone.
Dreamer struggled to stand up, and started panting and gasping for breath as he did. "Wh-wh- *gasp* what the heck were those?" Dreamer closed his eyes and struggled to think, his head still pounding in pain.
"Wh-HEY! Get back here!" shouted Quickstar as he rushed back to the group. "That was Discord, spirit of Chaos! And he...he..." Quickstar caught sight of the new stone additions to the area. "That's not good." He carefully approached the petrified ponies and cast a spell to closely examine the six statues. "This is no ordinary petrification spell. I'm not even sure it IS a petrification spell! And worst of all, I have no idea how to undo it."
"Wait WHAT!?" Tyler said to Quickstar "how can you not know how to undo the spell we need the Elements to stop Discord"
"Because, that would be too easy. knowing how insane somepony can be, from personal experience, he wouldn't make it easy." Dreamer looked left and right quickly. "also, there's a chance those aren't the real ones, just ordinary statues."
"Would you rather me start experimenting and potentially risk shattering their heads? Messing with unfamiliar magic, especially chaos magic, is extremely dangerous. Perhaps one of the princesses might recognize it, but I'm not touching that until I have a better idea of how it works." Quickstar turned to the other ponies standing around the area, ponies he had only just met, but seemed to have experienced the same thing from Discord that he had. "No Elements of Harmony, evil versions of ourselves who know us as well as we know ourselves...this is a pretty rough situation." "But..." Another smile began spreading across Quickstar's face. "For some reason, Discord chose us to use that cloning spell on. Out of all the ponies in this town, he chose us. There has to be a reason for that, and I'd like to find out what it is. Anyone interested in coming with me?" Seems this might be fun after all.
"What time is it?" Dreamer jumped up onto a table. "Evil copy destroying time! I got dibs on fighting your's." Dreamer pointed at Quickstar.
'Well actually if we DO happen to fight our evil selves we should fight our own seeing as they are us and we would know all of they're or our weak spots and also I'll come" Tyler explained
"Yclept, what are you talking about? We don't need you to fight. He wanted all of us for some reason. It makes sense that all of us should come. Besides," Quickstar remarked with a sideways smile, "aren't you the only one who can properly counter your clone's dimension-shifting?"
"Well actually we might not actually have to fight our evil selves well... maybe a little but we probably wont have to mostly fight them I mean if I can find a spell and give it to the strongest unicorn here or maybe even Celestia then maybe we can free the Elements and or possibly stop Discord ourselves".
"If I heard correctly, that's our evil, I've only got some of my magic, & little use of my weapons, I'm just chaos, & idiocy now."
"Kid! You want to hunt for a spell go ahead. I can already tell we'll need to do some serious stuff. maybe your spell is somewhere in there, i dunno, but i do know that i am gonna find that jerk copy of mine and give him a good one-two. i mean really, he didn't even smile!" Dreamer gets a huge smile and laugh slightly. "You guys all got like, exact replicas. what's the deal with that?" Dreamer turned to Yclept. "And what's wrong with chaos and idiocy!"
"'Cause with out evil, & all the stuff I'm as useful as a bag of potatoes don't you get it!", Yclept snapped
"Well um... youre kind of incorrect im kind of... shy and nice however that evil me or whatever it is kicked me in the jaw and that really wasnt nice" Tyler said
"Are you really?" whispered Quickstar. "That's not what I remember seeing back at Sugarcube Corner. That didn't look like evil to me." "And besides, is there any other way to get back what you lost than to come with us?"
"My kindness is usually derived from my hatred for things that've happend in the past, & such, & my evil is mainly from my hatred!"
