She wore a chicken costume—not to everypony's surprise—with a small, linen scarf and a straw baskets, carrying about a dozen plastic eggs. Discord, on the other hand, bore a simple tuxedo, black and white with a red shiny bow in the exact middle - and a thin, curly mustache which stretched from cheek to cheek. "Why, going to get candy, dear Fluttershy," said Discord. "Since this is my very first Nightmare Night with you ponies, I thought I'd look formal." "But Discord," said Fluttershy, "Nightmare Night means you have to dress up as something scary and be there. I don't see what you're supposed to be." "Why," said Discord in shock, "I'm myself... in a suit. But, you have to dress up as something scary?" he asked as his eyebrows drooped low. "Yes," she responded. Discord held a claw to his chin and long beard. "Then why aren't you anything scary?" "Oh, well, it doesn't have to be scary; but, think of it like a costume party." Discord sighed and blew his tongue. "Well, at least I'm one to keep formality," he said while raising his neck high and tugging the red bow with a paw. "Besides, you said Nightmare Night is supposed to be scary. Too bad I'm un-scareable." "What!" said Fluttershy. "But, surely there's something that can scare you. I mean: not anything that can scare me, like Dragons, or giant mountains, or black smoke, or shadows." As she spoke, her voice tone became lower, all the way to a whisper. "Please, Fluttershy! I'm a Spirit of Disharmony, and there is nothing that can even make my eye twitch in terror. Let's just go over to meet your, bleh, friends, and get whatever candy you desire." -- The two ponies—er, pony and draconequus, made it down an earthy dike, which down below, connected to a dirt road, leading to Ponyville. At the small town were many decorations and trinkets representing the Trick-or-Treat night. Foals dressed as princesses or pirates ran about, asking for candy in their small, pumpkin bags. -- Finally, Fluttershy met up with her friends—only three of them—for Rainbow dash was flying by on an ashen-grey cloud, scaring innocent ponies with her harmless thunder, and Pinkie Pie was out, doing whatever she would be doing on such a night. "Hey girls," said Fluttershy, smiling warmly. "Oh, hey Fluttershy," said Twilight. "You're a chicken... I see. Well, it's nice for all of us to be here." "Well, ah see ya brought Discord to tag along," said Applejack, but more darkly then happily. Discord took note of this. "Well, dear Applejack: I am simply here to accompany you and your friends in collecting candy. I personally think Nightmare Night is boring, but meh, whatever." 'Why, we don't collect candy," said Rarity; "us older ponies are just here for enjoyment. It's the younger ones who get the treats." "What!" cried Discord. "No candy for us? Uuuuhhg! This is so boring now!" he said while crossing his arms and laying back on a stone well nearby. While Twilight rolled her eyes and continued to chat with her friends, Fluttershy rested a hoof on Discord's shoulder. "Now, Discord, " she said; "you did say you were un-scareable, so maybe you'll have fun trying to get scared by other ponies around here?" "Hardly," he said bitterly. Snapping a claw, his tuxedo and fake mustache vanished with light and a rushing wind. "I better head home, dear Fluttershy. There's clearly no fun here for me to have at old Moon-Butt's reunion party." "Did somepony say UN-SCAREABLE!" a high voice cried from literally no where. While Fluttershy screamed and ran behind a pile of hay, Discord yawned. "See," he said, while turning his head. "There's no reason for—Aaaaahhhhhh!" he screamed as Pinkie Pie jumped in front of him. She held a long, red tongue out, with black markings on it, drawing out a pumpkin face. Things seemed to get darker, fast, as she terrified the draconequus, who ran behind the pile of hay; behind Fluttershy. "Hahahaha," Pinkie laughed. "Wow. You're right, Discord. You're sooooooo un-scareable." All the meanwhile, Twilight, Rarity, and Applejack came up, giggling loudly. "Hey!" cried Discord. "That wasn't funny." His lower lip puckered out as he crossed his arms – his eyebrows becoming thickly straight. "Oh, come on now," said Fluttershy. "It was just a joke. It's not all that bad." "Ah don't know, y'all," said Applejack, still smiling from the laugh. "That was pretty funny fer me." Rarity and Twilight, both, nodded. "What! That was no joke!" said Discord in frustration. "You wanna hear a real joke?" "Um, sure," said Fluttershy. They all stood back as Discord cleared his throat. "Why does Celestia have a sun for a cutie mark?" he asked. "Um, why," Twilight asked back. "Because: it's the only thing big enough to fit her size." There was an awkward silence; as Twilight narrowed her eyes in anger, while the rest stared and thought in confusion. "Get it?" asked Discord once again. "Because she has a BIG FAT—" Boom!!!! I fiery typhoon of fire jetted from the ground, blazing Discord to a crisp. When the heat was gone, a black-burned draconequus remained, with smoke emitting from his body. All eyes turned westward, spotting the Princess, eyeing Discord suspiciously. "Good one, Discord," she said; "but it can't compare with your big, fat mouth."
