Everyone Deserves At Least One...

It was a busy day at Fluttershy’s cottage. A large number of her woodland friends were getting ready for mating season and she was helping them prepare their nests. “That should be enough twigs for your nest, right?” Fluttershy asked the bird as she placed the twigs on the branch. The bird nodded and gave a small chirp. “Oh, that’s good. Just call if you need anything.” Fluttershy lowered to the ground and walked inside her home. She’s been working since this morning and since everyone pretty much had everything they needed, Fluttershy figured it would be a good time to take a break. The Pegasus walked over to her couch and lay down with a sigh. Before she could get comfortable the couch began to shake. Fluttershy shot up and hovered over the chair. “That’s strange…why-“The couch began to float and the arms of it stretched out and grabbed the Pegasus. Fluttershy yelped but as soon as the chair pulled her close she giggled. “Discord, you almost had me!”

“Drat! Scaring you isn't easy anymore.” Discord transformed back into his normal form and the two fell onto the floor. “Oops, forgot about the couch,” he said snapping his fingers bringing the couch back.

“I didn't see you this morning. What happened? You didn’t forget about our plans today did you?” Fluttershy asked.
“Of course not…maybe. I was going to show up but I stopped over at Sugarcube Corner to grab a muffin and I caught Pinkie preparing for a party. The next thing I know, I’m helping her entertain some fillies. Sorry for not showing up like I promised,” Discord answered with a frown.

“Oh, it’s alright. I’ve been doing this alone for a long time; it just would have been more fun to have you around. Also, have you seen Angel?”

“Hahaha! I almost forgot.” Discord pulled out a top hat and started to shake it. Angel fell out wearing a tutu. “I needed his help for my performance, although, he’s not much of a dancer.” Annoyed, Angel kicked Discord’s tail and hopped out of the room.

“Speaking of birthdays, when is yours Discord?” Discord looked at Fluttershy with a confused face.

“Birthday..? I’ve been around for YEARS dear; mostly being used as a garden decoration. I can’t recall my birthday at all. Why you as-Fluttershy? Discord noticed that the front door was open. He walked over and looked outside for his friend. “Maybe she needed to help out one of her animal friends.” The Draconequus shrugged and closed the door behind him.

At Sugarcube Corner Pinkie Pie was baking a new batch of cookies for the shop. “The cookies will be ready in another thirty minutes, Dashie!” Pinkie shouted from the kitchen.

“They can’t bake any faster?” Dash groaned.

“Nope, my special Super Yummy Triple Chocolate Chip Cookies or S.Y.T.C.C. for short, always tastes better when I take my time.”

While the two ponies are chatting, Fluttershy walks in with Twilight, Rarity and Apple Jack.

“Hi girls! You hear for the S.Y.T.C.C. too?!” Pinkie shouted with excitement.

“No Pinkie, Fluttershy says she has something important to tell us,” Twilight responded.

“Huh, what is it Fluttershy?” The other ponies gathered around the yellow Pegasus wondering what she had to say.

“Does it involve your critters? I can help you make some burrows if ya like,” said Applejack.

“No, the animals are fine. I just found out something terrible!” “What is it?” the group asked in unison. Fluttershy gulped and gave off a look as if someone was in trouble. She took a big breathe and said, “Discord has never had a single birthday party.” Everyone glanced silently except for Pinkie.

“WHAT?! NO BIRTHDAY PARTIES?” Pinkie gasped. “Why didn’t he tell me?! He was helping me with a party earlier today. Is his birthday today? I can throw a party for him if he wants,” the pink pony said as she grabbed a sack of flour.

“Maybe I’m not sure; he doesn't remember his birthday.”

“I thought you had something really important to say, darling,” Rarity sighed.

“Are you kidding me? Rarity, that is important. Everyone deserves at least one birthday party.” Fluttershy looked down, covering her eyes with her wings.

“I’m sorry…I just thought it would have been nice to throw him a surprise party,” she murmured. Twilight walked over to Fluttershy and smiled.

“You know, that sounds like a great idea.”
“R-really?” Fluttershy perked up.
“Yes. Discord is our friend now; since we don’t have to worry about him making a mess of things...well, not so much anyway. I think a party would be nice.” After hearing Twilight’s thoughts everyone quickly changed their minds about the party.

“We should make something spectacular. We should let the whole town in on it,” suggested Rarity.

“Oooh you mean plenty of Discord balloons?”

“No Pinkie. Discord is the spirit of chaos, why don’t we make Ponyville chaotic for a day?”

“That actually sounds like fun! But, only Discord could pull off stuff like that. I doubt we can ask him to play with Ponyville without giving off any suspicions,” Dash said.

“I’m sure Twilight could do it herself. Can you?”

“Rarity I can but are you guys sure? I don’t think it’s all that necessary.”

“I agree, I’m pretty sure Discord would love anything we gave him,” answered Fluttershy.

The others stared at the two with big, puppy dog eyes, whimpering. After a few seconds, Twilight and Fluttershy agreed with the idea.

“Then it’s settled. We’re going to make a chaotic Ponyville for Discord! And I’m in charge with the food. Rarity, you can make the decorations, AJ and Rainbow can help her put them up, Twilight you’re in charge of informing everyone and prepping the town.”

“What about me?” Fluttershy asked shyly.

“You have to distract Discord,” Pinkie smiled.

“M-me? All alone with no pony to help me?”

“Don’t worry, the party isn’t until the weekend. Just worry about it then.”

What Are You Hiding?

Fluttershy stayed out longer than she planned. After everyone discussed what their roles were everyone began brainstorming about how everything should come out. Rainbow and AJ came up with some good ideas for games, Pinkie invited Mrs. Cake over and the two managed to come up with an idea for the cake along with some other treats, Rarity helped Twilight think of some clever tricks she could pull off with her magic. Thinking about all of this just made the Pegasus’ wings flutter with excitement. As she walked inside her cottage she was shocked to find Discord lying lifeless on the floor.

“Discord!” she shouted as she ran towards her friend. She nudged against his sides calling out his name. Nothing. Fluttershy fell down next to the lifeless body, sobbing lightly.

“Fluttershy…” Discord uttered weakly.

Fluttershy raised her head slowly, wiping away the tears from her face with her hoof. “A-are you okay?” she said trying to hold back the tears.

“Why…?”

“Why wh-“

Before she could finish, Discord started tickling the Pegasus belly with his tail. “Why did you leave me here to die of boredom, you silly mare?”
Fluttershy rolled over to her sides not able to fight back. “Hahaha you s-scared me,” she laughed.

“I’m sorry but today has been the most uninteresting, dull, lifeless day I’ve ever experienced. I needed to do something to liven it up.” The Draconequus stopped to allow the mare to catch her breath.

The Pegasus rolled over glaring at Discord. Discord’s grin lowered.

“Right, that’s no excuse to scare you like that. I’m sorry.” Fluttershy smiled and gave Discord a hug. He sighed and returned the hug. “But I’d really like to know what you were so happy about just a moment ago.”
Fluttershy pulled away wondering what he was referring to. “What?”

Discord let go of the Pegasus, stretched out his claw and snapped his fingers. He took the form of Fluttershy mimicking her actions from earlier. “

Oh, now I remember.”

“I’m going to assume that you have a special some pony; that is it isn’t it?” Discord asked with a smirk on his face.

“What? No, I do-“

Discord picked Fluttershy up from the floor and spun around. “My sweet, little Fluttershy is growing up. Is he nice? He better be nice,” he growled.

“There isn’t any pony! I’m still single.”

Discord patted the mare on the head and placed her back onto the floor. “Don’t worry, you’ll find him someday. But if it isn’t a stallion then what’s making you so happy? Was it the thought of seeing me again?”

Fluttershy giggled shaking her head.

“Some pony gave you a present? Is a friend of ours getting married? Was some pony born today? You found a bit?”

“No, no, no and no,” Fluttershy laughed.

“Sweet Celestia, I’m begging you, please tell me!” Discord kneeled down pleading for the answer.

“Sorry Discord, it’s my little secret,” she winked at him. The Draconequus huffed, crossing his arms as he turned away from the pony.

Fluttershy yawned and glanced over at the clock from her wall. It was close to 10 P.M. Fluttershy rubbed her eyes then let out another yawn. “It’s getting late; I need to get some sleep.”

“So you’re not going to tell me, are you?” She didn’t respond.

Fluttershy slowly went up the stairs leading to her room.

“Fluttershy? Fluttershy, don’t do this to me.”

“Goodnight Discord,” she yawned.

“Goodnight, dear,” Discord sighed. He snapped his fingers and teleported to his room within the Canterlot Castle. He flopped on his bed staring at the ceiling. “I’ll find out what you’re hiding sooner or later,” Discord said to himself. The Draconequus soon became tired himself and called it a night.

Author's Note

This is shorter than I expected but I hope it's still enjoyable nonetheless.

Strange Friends

It was late in the morning. Discord was still in his room, pacing with a paw playing in his beard. What is she hiding, Discord thought to himself.

Why would she ever have to hide something from me? We’re best friends! She never approves of me keeping secrets but when it’s HER. All this thinking is giving me a migraine.
Discord groaned as he slumped onto his bed. He couldn’t take it anymore. The curiosity was driving him insane. He glanced over at the stand to the right of him. On it was a picture of him and the six multicolored ponies. The Draconequus grabbed the photo looking over every single pony. He smiled to himself and placed the photo back on the stand. “If I can’t get an answer from Fluttershy, I’m sure I can get it out from one of those ponies,” he smirked. Just then, his stomach let out a small growl. Discord patted his belly,
“Right after a quick bite to eat.”

At Sugarcube Corner, Pinkie Pie was overwhelmed with a large crowd of hungry ponies. Everyone was banging at the counter shouting for muffins, bagels, just about everything. The pink mare went as fast as she could but it wasn’t enough to satisfy the customers.

“I wanted a chocolate muffin!” shouted an unhappy pony.

“Sorry, I’ll get to you in just a second,” Pinkie said sweating furiously.

“Hey, I have a job to get to! Hurry it up!”

Discord appeared just outside of the bakery. He was hoping the shop would be empty. Not caring, Discord hovered over the crowd of angry foals landing right in front of the register. “Good morning, Pinkie. I’d like o-“

A blue hoof pushed Discord out of the way before he could finish. “I was here first! Wait in line like everypony else!” the angry pony snorted.

“Line? What line? All of you are swarming to the front. I remember this place being orderly, although I don’t mind this.”

“Whatever, I was here before you. Now get lost.”

Discord folded his arms glaring at the angry mob before him. He looked over at Pinkie. She could tell what he was thinking. She smiled then nodded her head gently. Discord let out his talon and snapped his fingers. The angry ponies were lifted from the floor and turned into muffins.

“Wait, I didn’t want you to do that!” Pinkie shouted covering her mouth with her hooves.

“Sorry, I’m just really hungry right now.” He snapped his fingers again, turning the muffins back into ponies, this time having them float out through the door. Discord locked the door behind them then faced Pinkie.
“As I was saying, one chocolate muffin please,” he grinned.

“Uh, can’t you just make one yourself?” Pinkie asked puzzled.

“Don’t ask questions, you know I’m complicated. Just grab the muffin, please.”

Pinkie shrugged opened the door to the case of bake goods in front of her, pulled out a muffin and handed it to Discord. His tail wagged with delight as he devoured the pastry, not even taking time to savor it.

“Glad to see you like my new recipe! Anyway that’ll be one bit!” Pinkie exclaimed sticking out her hoof.

Discord simply laughed and slapped the pony’s hoof with his paw. “Pay you? Good one, Pinkie! You know I never have money on me.” The Draconequus could see that he was starting to annoy the usually cheerful filly. He snapped his fingers poofing up a bit from thin air.

“You can make money? Why don’t you do that for us?!

“Why are you always yelling? And of course I can make money; I can do whatever I please. I just choose to do certain things without any reasonable logic.” Discord stated flatly. “But really, I’ve come here on important business.”

Pinkie blinked in bewilderment. Since when did Discord ever talked about important issues. Furthermore, why would he come to her? Those were the thoughts running through Pinkie’s mind. She was kind of happy that some pony did come to her for once, but it did feel strange.

“Oh, what is it Discord? You need me to bake you something?” She smiled.

Discord shook his head. “I need to know what’s up with our dear friend, Fluttershy. She was acting very strange yesterday.”
Pinkie rubbed her head in confusion, “Strange how?” she asked.

“She came back home with this huge smile on her face; fluttering about not really paying attention to too much of anything. Do you have any idea as to why?”

“Oh you me-“Pinkie covered her mouth before she let the secret out. She continued on making muffled noises from her lips.
Discord leaned against the counter staring into Pinkie’s eyes. “What was that?” he growled.
Pinkie could tell he was losing his patience. She gulped and started to nervously tap her hooves together; looking all over the room trying to avoid the Draconequus’ gaze. Pinkie then walked from behind the counter and started pushing Discord from behind. “Wow, it’s getting pretty late. Closing time!”

“But it’s ten in the morning.”

“We close early now!” Pinkie pushed mismatched animal out slamming the door behind him. She placed the “closed” sign onto the window then left.

Discord lifted himself from the ground brushing off the dirt from his fur. “That was a failure. She knew something and just refused to tell me!” Discord was even more curious. If it was something that even Pinkie refused to say then it must be important. Does this have something to do with me? He thought.

“Free apples! Y’all come over and get some delicious apples!”

Discord looked over to see Apple Jack standing next to a stand with plenty of apple treats. “Apple Jack may know what’s going on.” Discord began floating over towards the orange mare. “Hello, AJ!”

“Oh no, Discord,” AJ whispered. “Oh, hi Discord. Weren’t expecting ya to be down here,” she said nervously.
Discord raised an eye brow, “What do you mean?” the little smile he had on his face had quickly turned into a frown.
AJ picked up on that and handed the Draconequus a pie, “Here, this is for you,” she smiled. Discord took the pie but it didn’t really cheer him up. “I didn’t mean anything by what I said; it’s just you’re usually hanging around Fluttershy and I...err, is something the matter?”

Discord snapped his finger and the pie vanished in smoke. “You are the Element of Honesty, correct?”
Apple Jack nodded, “Right…why ya ask?”

“So you’d never hide anything from your friends, right?”

“Uh no…I try not to. So-“

“Fluttershy and Pinkie are hiding something from me!”

The orange mare jumped back startled by the sudden outburst. “Hidin’? What do ya mean?” AJ knew exactly what Discord was talking about. She nervously kicked at the ground hoping that some pony would come take him away or at least distract him.

“Fluttershy was acting strange last night. She told me she was hiding a secret from me. I went over to Pinkie’s to see if she knew anything, but then she kicked me out. AJ, what’s going on?” Discord asked sounding slightly upset.
Apple Jack scratched at her ear. Her eyes darted all around trying to avoid Discord. “I don’t have the slightest idea of what you’re talking about.” AJ looked away from Discord, “Free apples! Any pony wants any apples?!”

“Apple Jack, don’t igno-“Discord was cut off when the orange mare stuffed an apple in his mouth.

“I can’t help ya. Go and ask some other pony.”

Discord spit the apple out of his mouth and stared angrily at Apple Jack. Seeing that he wasn’t moving, AJ grabbed her things and began pushing her stand away. Discord thought about following her but there was no point; she wasn’t going to answer him.
Discord dragged his tail as he walked. Three of his friends are hiding something and he didn’t even have the slightest idea what it could be. He pulled at his beard trying to figure out why everyone was acting so strange. Other than the dirty prank he pulled on Fluttershy yesterday night he hasn’t done anything worth scolding, at least not in his eyes.

Over time Discord noticed something odd. Every pony within the small town were starting to stray from him. He didn’t mind it around the time before and a little after the Tirek incident but now it was bothersome. They all gave these nervous smiles and would scurry away before he could even say a word. It was becoming clear that whatever Fluttershy and the others were hiding involved him somehow. Discord was becoming both annoyed and doleful.

“Discord?” a voice asked from behind

Discord turned around to find Rarity. He feigned a small trying to hide his pain. “Hi Rarity…”

“What’s the matter, darling? You don’t sound like yourself,” Rarity asked placing a hoof on his paw. “Would you like to come over to my place for a cup of tea? Twilight and Rainbow Dash are coming over as well.”

“That sounds good. Okay, I guess I can stay for a while.”

Back at the Carousel Boutique, Twilight and Rainbow were quietly chatting amongst themselves. They were sitting in Rarity’s kitchen eating some cookies that Pinkie had sent over.

“So everypony knows?” Rainbow asked

“Yes, it didn’t take long. Everypony was really excited about the news.” Twilight picked up a cookie with her magic and levitated it close to her mouth. “I went over to Sugar Cube Corner a while ago; she’s already started working on the cake. It’s creative I’ll give her that.”

“Don’t tell me she made the cake in the shape of him,” Rainbow said gagging at the thought.

“No, she’s making a four layer cake but it’s going to be upside-down.”

“That doesn’t sound like it’ll be easy.”

“I know, but it will sure enough put a smile on that pony…dragon, thing’s face.”

“I’m back, darlings!” Rarity shouted as she stepped into the room. Discord was right behind her, waving innocently at the ponies by the table.

“Discord, what are you doing here?” Rainbow asked.

“Rarity invited me for a cup of tea. Is that a problem?” Discord asked looking down at Rarity.

“Oh, no! Discord, sweetie can you step out for a moment?”

“Don’t call me sweetie,” Discord muttered as he left the three ponies.

Twilight looked over at Rarity and whispered, “Why did you bring him here?”

“I brought him here to cheer him up; he was looking awfully sad.”

“Sad about what?”

“That’s what I was hoping to find out.”

Rarity walked over to the door and motioned Discord to come in. The Draconequus flew in but not in his usual manner. Usually he’s like Pinkie: full of energy and zany. But today he was gloomy bordering lifeless. It made the tree ponies feel uncomfortable seeing him like this. He sat down next to Twilight staring blankly at the cookies before them.

“Discord,” she smiled, “If you want a cookie you’re more than welcome to have one.” She pushed the plate closer to Discord only to have it pushed back at her. “But they’re your favorites!” Rarity said rather surprised.

“I’m not really hungry…can you girls please tell me what’s going on?” the Draconequus sighed.

The three ponies didn’t need to ask. They knew exactly what he was referring to. Their ears drooped down drifting their eyes away from him. Rainbow’s wings trembled slightly as did Twilight’s. The girl’s nervousness was starting rub off onto the Draconequus.

“Guys, seriously what’s going on?!” Discord shouted as he hopped onto the table. “Everypony today have been acting off around me. If I’ve done anything to upset you guys, I’m sorry. I’d just like to know WHY?”

The three looked at each other then back at Discord. By the look in their eyes, Discord could tell they weren’t going to answer. Irritated, he kicked the plate of cookies from the table nearly hitting Rainbow.

“Hey, watch it! What’s your problem?”

“MY PROBLEM?! I don’t have a problem. It’s this town that seems to have a problem with me!” Discord barked. “Every…single…pony,” Discord said chokingly.

Discord could feel tears welling up in his eyes. He immediately turned away as to avoid embarrassment. “If no pony wants to be around me then so be it.”

The Draconequus stretched out his talon. The three ponies reached out for him but before they could say anything Discord vanished within a blink of an eye.

The three sat silently, looking over the small mess Discord made before departing. Soon enough Rarity grabbed her broom and began sweeping the pile of broken glass and cookies.

“So…” Rainbow looked to her left and found one cookie that was spared from crumbling onto the floor. She picked it up with her hoof and raised it into the air. “Anypony want this?”

Twilight slapped Rainbow with her wing smacking the cookie away from her.

Where's the Chaos?

Today was the day. Every pony were preparing for the biggest party to ever come to Ponyville, well second biggest. Twilight had been practicing her magic for the past few days to be able to replicate Discord’s chaotic tricks. They weren’t as impressive but seemed to be enough to place a smile on his face. There were simple changes like color changes to manes and turning unicorns to pegasi. A few cotton candy clouds here and there. Twilight was starting to appreciate Discord’s ability to change things easily; it was harder than it looked.

“You’re doing a great job, Twilight.” Fluttershy said patting her friend.

“Thanks. Discord made this look so much easier. I hope he likes this.”

“I’m sure he will. I’m more worried about whether he’ll like the present I got him,” Fluttershy said looking at the bag she had strapped to her side.

“You got him a present?”

“Yes, I made it. It looked nice at the time but now I’m afraid he may not think much of it,” Fluttershy whispered hiding her face with her mane.

“I wouldn’t worry,” Rarity said carrying a box of party favors. “He simply adores you, darling. I’m sure whatever it is you made him he’ll love it just as much.” Rarity stated rather matter of factly.

Fluttershy blushed hiding even more of her face with her mane, “Oh don’t say that. He loves you girls just as much.”

“He certainly doesn’t act like it,” Rainbow said flying over head. She was carrying a banner that Rarity and Pinkie created together. It was similar to the same banner that Pinkie made for Dash’s birthday. Although, some pony messed up one of his eyes.

“Hey Rarity, who drew the head?” Dash asked chuckling lightly.

“That would have been me…But it doesn’t matter! He distorts himself all the time.”

“Whatever.”

“Speaking of Discord, have any of you seen him? I hadn’t seen him since Tuesday,” said Fluttershy.

“We saw him,” Twilight said slowly. “He wasn’t all too happy that day.”

“We figured he might have been with you, Fluttershy,” Rarity said rubbing her leg with a hoof.

“What? Do you know why he was upset? It takes quite a lot to bring him down.”

“From what he told us, every pony was making him feel unwelcomed. I’m pretty sure every pony just didn’t want to risk spoiling the surprise for him.”

“Hold on! Don’t tell me the Birthday Boy is missing!” Rainbow shouted throwing the banner to the ground.

Fluttershy placed a hoof to her chin. Then she started to laugh. Her friends looked over at her in confusion. Why is she laughing? It didn’t seem in character for her to laugh at anything like this. Perhaps all that time with Discord has changed her somehow.

“Silly me, why didn’t I bother looking there?” Fluttershy chuckled.

“Look where?” Twilight asked curious.

“…I have a good idea of where he’s hiding. You guys continue preparing the party.”

Fluttershy stretched out her wings then headed straight to her cottage. In no time at all, Fluttershy made it back home. Angel was sitting out in the front gnawing at a carrot she had given to him earlier. “Angel, have you seen Discord?” She asked leaning down closer to the bunny.

Angel nodded his head pointing at an old tree not too far from them. Fluttershy slapped herself not thinking of it sooner. The Pegasus walked over to the droopy tree. It didn’t seem to belong anywhere near Fluttershy’s home. The bark was extremely dark and worn; the limbs were weak and only didn’t have too many leaves hanging from them and to the left was a weird growth jutting out of base of the trunk. Fluttershy grabbed it with her mouth then pulled. The bark opened up slightly. There was a large hole with a small glimmer of light coming from the bottom. Fluttershy closed her eyes then stepped in. She fell for what felt like forever. She let out a small yelp as she landed onto a giant marshmallow.

The tree led to a hideaway that Discord conjured up a while ago. He and Fluttershy would often go there whenever they didn’t want to be interrupted by any pony. It didn’t look all too different than the place they usually have their picnics with the others; there were flowers here and there along with some rather weird creations of Discords.

A familiar shadow overcast, “You should learn to knock,” Discord said lending out a paw.

Fluttershy smiled as she lunged at the Draconequus. Her legs wrapped tightly around him. Discord tried to pull away from the mare but to no avail. She was stuck to him like glue.

“But I did knock. You just weren’t listening,” the Pegasus said as she nuzzled into his chest.

“Why are you down here anyway? Doesn’t every pony hate me?”

Fluttershy looked up at her friend’s face. She placed a hoof on his cheek and smiled.

“No, nopony hates you.”

“Of course they don’t. Please, let me go, this is a bit much.”

“No, not until you come with me,” Fluttershy stated tightening her grip on the dragon pony.
Discord groaned as he tried to pull away from the Pegasus. The more he pulled the tighter her grip became. Seeing that she wasn’t giving up, Discord smirked and looked down at the little mare. “Fluttershy, if you don’t let go, I’ll have to be forced to do that thing.”

“You wouldn’t!” she gasped.

Discord poked out his tongue. Fluttershy shivered slightly.

“Discord…Don’t!”

“Letf goh theph,” he said tongue coming out slowly.

Before Discord could move Fluttershy loosened her grip and flew away. Discord giggled a bit at the Pegasus red face before turning away from her. He snapped his talons then a big red pillow appeared.

“Leave me to wallow in my own pity,” Discord mumbled as he sank into the cushion.

The two were silent for a moment. Discord could hear Fluttershy as she moved closer. His ears perked up when he heard a squeak just behind him. He turned around to find Fluttershy, her legs folded in crying.

“Are you alright?”

No response.

“Fluttershy, tell me.”

“It hurts…” she sniffled.

“What does?”

Discord slowly crawled over to the mare to examine her. As soon as she felt his beard touch her mane, Fluttershy jumped up and started to tickle the Draconequus.

“This is payback for that little prank of yours!”

Discord kicked his legs as he laughed. The little Pegasus had him pinned down. He couldn’t even muster to use his magic to lift her. His tail lashed about sometimes hitting the mare on her sides.

“T-this isn’t t-the tiame!”

“That doesn’t sound like the Discord I know; he ALWAYS has time for fun.”

As the two were having their fun, Angel fell in through the whole panicking. He hopped over to them shouting incomprehensible chatter. Fluttershy ceased her tickle attack and faced him.

“What’s wrong Angel?”
Discord whipped a tear from his eye and glanced over at the bunny.

“He sounds worried.”

“Angel calm down; I can’t understand what you’re saying.”

Angel took a deep breath and started over.

Fluttershy let out a gasp, covering her mouth with her hooves.

“What did h-“Fluttershy grabbed the Draconequus by the face pulling it closer to hers.

“No time to explain! Ponyville needs your help!”

Too Much Chaos

Discord teleported both him, Angel and Fluttershy to Ponyville. On their arrival, the two could see what was causing Angel so much distress. Homes were floating, the grass was turned into pasta while the dirt road was turned to fudge; trees were turned to plastic, the sky had a hint of pink, some buildings had been replaced with cheese replicas. Seeing all of this chaos was enough to slip out a loud squeak from the Draconequus.

“I can see why Angel would panic over this but; Ponyville has never looked so marvelous!” Discord exclaimed dropping the Pegasus from his arms.

“Discord!” Fluttershy scolded.

“Fluttershy, you know me. How can I not enjoy this?” Discord pulled out a camera snapping pictures of everything around them.

“Come on; let’s go take a picture next to that glass pony!”

Discord floated over to the statue and took a quick selfie. He then took a closer look at the pony. He gasped as he jumped back from the figure. Fluttershy flew up next to him in confusion.

“What’s wrong?” she asked not looking at the glass pony.

“Fluttershy…while I do fondly enjoy the changes that were given to Ponyville I don’t condone physically harming ponies; no matter how I may come off to any pony.”

Fluttershy turned around and found Rarity encased in glass. She covered her mouth as she screamed. “Rarity!” Fluttershy lightly tapped the glass unicorn. Discord didn’t notice until now that her face was frozen with the face of shock.

“Well Rarity unintentionally ruined my selfie,” Discord said disappointed.

“Discord, change her back,” Fluttershy cried.

Discord snapped his fingers and the glass began to crack. Eventually a dazed Rarity tumbled over.

“Goodness…now I know what it feels like to be frozen. Thank you, Discord,” Rarity smiled weakly.

“What happened here? Who did this to you?” Discord asked annoyed.

Rarity struggled to get back on her hooves. She nearly fell over again but Discord caught her with his tail.

“Thanks…Fluttershy, things turned sour not long after you left.”

“Oh dear, where’s Twilight?”

“I-I don’t know. I haven’t seen her for a while now; my vision was blurred being trapped in that glass.”

“Twilight Sparkle?! Princess Twilight did this?!”

“Discord?” Fluttershy raised a hoof to his paw. “Calm down, sweetie.”

“Please don’t call me that. Seriously, what has gotten into her? Is this a belated vengeance for her tree house?”

Rarity was going to speak up but was cut off when she heard a familiar scream from the distance. “Sweetie Bell?!”

“Somepony, help me!” Sweetie shrieked as what looked like a giant Apple Fritter, with claws and sharp fangs, chasing after the little filly.

Discord snorted and rushed over to the panicking pony. He picked up Sweetie once she got close and snapped his talons. The monster was converted back into its regular form. The Draconequus caught the snack with his tongue and swallowed.

“Thank you, Discord!” The filly squeaked as she hugged his neck.
Discord placed the little unicorn down then she ran towards her sister. She greeted her with a hug tears flowing from her eyes.

Fluttershy was starting to feel guilty. Had she not suggested the party every pony would be fine. Fluttershy covered her face with her wings and darted off.

“Fluttershy?” Discord called out.

Fluttershy only ran faster after hearing her name. Discord asks Angel to watch over the two sisters while he goes after Fluttershy. It didn’t take long for Discord to find the Pegasus sitting on a bench made out of pretzels. Discord sat next to her placing a hand on her back.

“What’s with the tears?”

Fluttershy uttered out nothing but incoherent squeaks and cries. Discord placed an ear to her face.

“Come again? I don’t speak mouse,” he chuckled.
Discord could hear her laugh slightly as she sniffed. Fluttershy sat up wiping away the tears with her hoof. She looks up at Discord her mouth agape.

“What’s wrong?”

“Look out!” Fluttershy cried pushing the Draconequus to the ground.

Discord looked back and found that half of the pretzel bench was gone. He frantically looked all around him. His ears twitched when he could hear her muffled screams come from behind. Standing behind him was a giant birthday cake. Candles thrown all around, with most of the residents of Ponyville trapped in its icing. Taking a closer look, Discord could see Fluttershy’s hind legs flailing from the monster’s mouth.
“Fluttershy!” Discord growled floating up to the monsters face.

Closer up, Discord could see Pinkie resting at the top of the cake, balloons trapped in her mane. She raised her forelegs up and shouted “Surprise!”

“Alright, I’ve had enough of this!” Discord snapped his tail and a bright burst of light engulfed the town. Once it faded, everything was turned back to normal. What remained of the monster was nothing more than a large pile of cake and icing. Every pony crawled out of the large mess, manes sticking to their coats.

Fluttershy was lying in the center, staring up at the sky blankly. Discord descended to the ground. He picked the mare up then sat her down on the grass. He picked at her mane eating the icing that covered her.

“I’m guessing this was your secret?”

Fluttershy didn’t speak. She simply nodded then sighed.

“So it was a surprise party?” He asked still eating away at the icing.
Fluttershy nodded again.

“You know, you didn’t have to make it chaotic. I would have enjoyed a regular party just as much.”

“I know…Can you stop?” Fluttershy said looking up at Discord.

“But it tastes so good. Besides, you need to get out of your hair anyway.”

“But you have magic.”

“I know, but that would be a waste of cake.”

The others came around looking down in disappointment.

“We’re sorry the party wasn’t awesome,” said Rainbow.

“And I’m sorry about the mess I caused. I lost control at some point,” Twilight stated rubbing her horn.

“It does take quite a lot of magic to replicate what I do.”

Discord stretched out his arms and pulled everyone in for a big hug. “I appreciate what you girls were trying to do, I really do. So who’s ready to party?!”

Discord snapped his fingers and Ponyville was instantly cleaned. Vinyl was at her turntable playing her usual music, the little fillies had a place of their own where they could play some party games, the food from earlier was brought back and placed in the center. Everypony was having a great time all except for Fluttershy. Discord appeared in front of her lifting her chin up with his paw.

“Fluttershy, why aren’t you dancing with the others?” Discord glanced back at Twilight before returning his gaze to Fluttershy. “On second thought I can see why you’re not up there. Is there anything you’d like me to make for you?” he smiled.

Fluttershy shook her head and pulled out a box from her saddlebag. It was bent here and there; the top no longer fitting over it. She nudged it over to Discord and frowned.

“It wasn’t all that nice but that monster only made it worse…”

Fluttershy pulled out a necklace from her bag and sat it in front of Discord. It had a golden string and at the end was a half-heart shaped pendant with Fluttershy’s face on it.

“Rarity helped me make them. She thought it was sweet but now I’m thinking I could have gotten something better.”

Discord pulled out the necklace from the box and put it on.The necklace was of the same shape with his face towards the left. Part of the necklace had a dent but it wasn’t as bad as Fluttershy made it out to be. Discord gave a big smile then hugged the butter-colored Pegasus.

“Thank you, Fluttershy! I love it!”

“But it’s just a simple necklace.”

“A necklace that you made for me; and I’ll always cherish it!”

Fluttershy smiled returning the hug. Discord pulled back and placed the necklace on her.

“Now will you dance with me and your somewhat embarrassing friends?”

Fluttershy grabbed Discord by his paw and dragged him towards the others.
