Grampy Cord
Welcome to the family!
Previous ChapterNext ChapterNothing could calm the couple, their minds racing about what to do, luckily nopony else was around to see and blame Discord at this time. Applejack twitched sending the draconequus a foot into the air. Even though it felt like an eternity (Discord would know, he was trapped in stone for one) about five minutes later the mare awoke, to calm himself down, Discord decided to make a cruel joke.
"Welcome back to the realm of the living Applejack," he started and smirked as he saw the panic creep across Apple jack's face, "we missed you!" he spread he arms and gave Applejack a hug that was tighter than the time she lassoed herself.
"Wait, WHAT?" Applejack explained, head looking back and forth, eyes darting around trying to figure out the situation, "What do you mean 'welcome back'?" the panic started to settle in as she started shaking. Discord noticed this and chuckled to himself.
"Well, you died of course!" Discord replied enjoying this as much as you would expect, "Why else would we look at you like that?" he was starting to enjoy this much more than should be possible, the panicked mare and the evil glare from his wife just added to the excitement.
Granny Smith shoved her hoof into Discord's mouth, luckily avoiding cutting it on his snaggle tooth, only removing it when she was certain Discord would stay quiet for the time being. She walked over to the panicking mare and started to calm her in anyway she could, a few ponies taking a late afternoon stroll through the park looked questioningly at the scene, trying to figure out what had freaked the mare out.
"Ignore him hun, he's tryin' to scare ya, you just blacked out for a few minutes, we were a bit worried that's all." said Granny, patting the mare on the back to calm her, this worked and soon Applejack was up on her feet back to her old self again.
"Wait I blacked out? Discord what did you do this time?" she asked waving her hooves at him trying to scare him into confessing, "I know you did something." Applejack gave Discord a glare that would have made... someone who's really good at glaring proud.
"Me?" he started faking being offended, "I did not do anything this time, it was your granny that put you into shock, why don't you ask her? Though, I guess I did play my part in what put you into shock." he added, hoping to annoy the already angered mare further, forgetting his fear.
Applejack snorted and hoofed at the ground, Discord suddenly remembering his far floated out of the mare's reach. It was noticeable to the ponies passing by that Discord was noticeably scared of Applejack, many of them snickered, everypony who did got a personal raincloud, that did not rain chocolate milk nor was it made of cotton candy.
"Sorry 'bout that hun, I thought it would be better if I pulled it off all at once, like a Band-Aid," said granny truly sorry, while Discord was preparing for a kick in the face, just in case, "I guess I was wrong wasn't I? Do you remember what I said that put you into shock?" she finished hoping she wouldn't have her black out again.
"It's still a bit fuzzy, I think you said somthin' about bein' married," she started wondering if the second part of her memory was true, "to Discord?" Applejack looked at Granny Smith, wondering if it would be better for her to confirm it or debunk it.
"Yes, that's exactly what I said," Annie said, truly worried about how Applejack would react to her confirming it, "I hope that doesn't affect your opinion of either of us in a bad way."
"I just hope you don't decide to kick me in the face," Discord added, making his one fear from the situation known, noticing the odd looks from the ponies he tacked on, "Come on! She kicks trees for a living! TREES! How is the thought of her kicking you in the face NOT SCARY?"
More ponies passing by snickered so he decided to up the punishment, clouds that rained molasses and peanut butter. Annie Smith gave him a good hard look, no matter how hard she tried he would not remove the clouds, ponies passing by stopped laughing at him and laughed at the other ponies instead, he then removed the clouds, much to the affected ponies happiness.
"Discord let's make a deal, if you don't threaten me, the farm, or mah family ever again, I don't kick you in the face deal?" Applejack said, extending her hoof to make the deal official.
All Discord could do is hastily shake her hoof, say "Deal", and let out a relived sigh before slinking down against the tree, relaxing after the treat of permanent hoof imprints on his face from Applejack was gone. He closed his eyes and imagined his perfect world. (also known as the world as it was when he ruled Equestria, but with Annie at his chaotic side)
"Wait, would that make you my grampy?" asked Applejack curiously, as she stood up and trotted over to Discord, looking at him questioningly, this action made Granny give Applejack the same look that she was giving Discord.
"Huh, I guess that would make me your 'grampy' as you put it," said Discord, amused, also wondering, "where are you going with this, pray tell?"
"Well, I'm willin' to bet nopony has said this to you yet, and it's a bit late but, welcome to the family, Grampy Cord!"
