Title card.

**Discord's Peak** will be the second part of the twenty-seventh episode of the second season of LEGO Ninjago & My Little Pony: Living the Pony Life.

Along with "Badge of Shame", it was paired with "The Calm Before the Storm" and "A Parasitic Friendship".

## Synopsis

**Teletoon**: *The Ninja, the Mane Six, Megan, and the Shintaro Trio hike up the treacherous Mt. Volcanope for a Trail Trotters badge, and Fluttershy tries to get Discord to join them.*

## Plot

For the next Trail Trotters badge, Fluttershy organizes a group hike up Mt. Volcanope, a long-dormant magical volcano on a nearby island, which is nearer to the Shintaro Border (an border that separates between Mt. Volcanope and the Shintaro Mountain). When Discord enters, Fluttershy tries to convince him to come along with the promise of chaos and danger, but Discord refuses to participate in any Trail Trotters activities. When the Ninja, the Mane Six, Megan and the Shintaro Trio reach the top of Mt. Volcanope, Fluttershy deliberately triggers an eruption in order to get Discord to join them, but the eruption she triggers ends up bigger than she intended.

Meanwhile, Discord asserts to Spike, P.I.X.A.L. and Akita his refusal to climb up Mt. Volcanope, but he quickly becomes bored. Outside, he notices the volcano erupting in the distance and teleports to the peak, where the Ninja, the Mane Six, Megan and the trio are surrounded by pink lava. Discord and a little lady stop the eruption with his magic and saves the Ninja, the Mane Six, Megan and the trio, and Fluttershy entices him with the idea of being a "Solo Scout" instead of joining a Trail Trotters troop. Discord relishes the idea of doing things on his own and leaves. Miyu was shocked that the little Mermling, named Maylia, have saved her and her friends from the lava.

It is revealed that Fluttershy made up the Solo Scouts much in the same way the rest of the Ninja, the Mane Six and Megan made up being a Trail Trotters troop in The Trail Less Trotten. Fluttershy expresses guilt over trying to force Discord into doing something he does not want to do, and Discord returns to ask for help getting back down the mountain.
