Discord's Father

  Celestia still was uneased by Discord's presence in Ponyvile, if he snapped, the thoughts caused Celestia to shiver down her spine. Fluttershy would write when Discord learned more about the magic of friendship. As of late the letters had stopped, leaving the sun princess with a sour note of displeasure. All was still within the palace. Celestia sighed inwardly, filled with dread as nothing happened as of late. She turned to her throne, the cushions calling to relax. Her mind full of doubts, 'Maybe I was wrong letting him out his stone prison.' Huffing in discomfort at the possibility of returning him back. Her thoughts were interrupted by a bright flash of light, Celestia covered her eyes in an attempt to avoid being blinded. The entire palace filled, each and everypony took cover. As fast as the light appeared it was gone, instead a figure stood alone in the throne room in front of the regent of the sun, the smug smile on its face said it was amused. Once Celestia eyes refocused to the way things were before the flashbang, she could only stare at the biped standing only feet away.

  "And you must be Celestia." The voice both commanding and soothing came the figure. His smile changed to a frown. "You don't even know who I am don't you?"

  "No I do not, please state your name and why you're here." Celestia regaining her composer as  retaining her gracefulness as a princess. "And may I ask how you got here?"

  The figure gave a slight bow in respect. "Lucifer, and I'm pleased to meet you." The smug smile never wavered, but his eyes clearly showed disgust at her. "Mind telling me where my boy is?" Celestia felt her blood chill. Nopony dared to demand anything from her. But yet Lucifer did, and without care about the guards or the princess. He chuckled to himself assuming these ponies had never dealt with a being like him before. His predatory gaze held Celestia in contempt, she noted the distaste in his eyes. Lucifer turned to the guards who stood weapons at the ready for his one action of deciete. Slowly his head turned back to the princess with a displeased sensation. She was well versed in all creatures of Equestria, but nothing prepared her for such an arrogent bipedal being like the one before her. She noted his movements as cold and calaulating, like a predator waiting for its prey to make one false move. "Awww that's cute did you see that scowl this guard gave me? Well I could just pop his head."

  Celestia gave a horrified gasp to the thought. But before she could speak Lucifer snapped his fingers. The guards head exploded like a violent pinata, blood and brains showered the showered the walls. The lifeless body fell to the floor with a thud, the second guard felt a warm sensation flow freely down his legs. Lucifer cocked his head slightly to the left and raised his hand, with a flick of the the wrist the guard's neck ripped open at the jugular. The once beautiful marble floor forever stained with blood, shined like a floor was laid down. Lucifer turned back to Celestia, her look of disbelief was one for the records.

  "Why did you kill them?!" Celestia's mind reeled in terror and disgust. Two highly trained veterans, cut down with ease. Murder rarely  occured in Equestria, when there was a murder it usually was in defending an other from criminals that wouldn't stop. Not out of sheer pleasure! Lucifer held a finger on his chin, an amused look on his face. "THEY DID NOTHING WRONG TO YOU! YET YOU KILLED THEM IN COLD BLOOD!?"

  "I've killed for less. Now where is my son?" Lucifer replied with his hands moving into his pockets. Celestia shuddered with knowing that she could be next on his list to kill. "I won't ask again, where is Discord?"

  "Discord is your son?!" Gasped the sun regent.
