Another Ingenious Plan That Doesn't Quite Work Out

Previous Chapter

Fluttershy still stood by the doorway confused. She had a date with Discord?! She was extremely confused. As she fed her animals and did her other chores she tried to figure out what she should do. Maybe tell her friends? No. Celestia knows how they would react. She couldn't even imagine it. Though she did know Pinkie would say something random. Then she remembered something. She had been planning to go have a picnic with her friends  today.

Fluttershy decided to stay home and figure everything out. This was all very confusing and weird. This was difficult.  Her mind was a huge mess of words and thoughts. What was she going to do? She checked the time. It was 8:03 AM. About ten hours until her date. She shivered at the thought. Discord was a good friend but to be in a serious relationship with him is like trying to imagine yourself dating...... well Discord! It was just to strange to compare to anything.

Then there was knocking. Dread filled Fluttershy. What was she going to do? She then looked at the clock. It was 9:00 Time had gone by quick. To quick. She was supposed to meet up with them thirty minutes ago. She then raised her hoof to her head. She should have told her friends that she wasn't going to show up for the picnic they had planned. She trotted up to the door and slowly opened it. When there was enough room she stuck her out. It was all of her friends. "Eeeyp!" She quickly slammed the door. She then heard Rarity.

"Darling, what's wrong?" Fluttershy thought about what to say.

"Erm...NOTHING! EVERYTHING IS PERFECTLY OKAY. NO REASON AT ALL TO BE SUSPICIOUS. HE HE. ITS NOT LIKE I HAVE A DATE WITH DISCORD OR ANYTHING!!!!" She then face hoofed herself. Now they were definitely worried. Probably for her sanity. She then heard pounding on her door again. Twilight spoke.

"Don't make us have to blow your door down." Fluttershy swallowed with fear. She knew she would have to tell them. She walked up as slowly as possible to the door. She then reached her hoof out and opened the door. Her friends barged in. Applejack was the first to speak.

"Now why didn't you tell us you wouldn't show up?" Fluttershy tried to speak but Twilight then interrupted her.

"Its not like you to just not show up." Fluttershy yet again tried to speak but Rarity interrupted her.

"What the matter dear? Trouble with Angel? He has always been a tough bunny to deal with." Fluttershy tried to speak but the ponies were all asking her questions. She couldn't take it anymore.

"I HAVE A DATE WITH-" She then stopped herself. What was she thinking? She couldn't tell them. They would drive her insane. All the ponies looked at her with confusion. Then Pinkie spoke.

"Discord woke you up in the morning and asked you out on a date tonight and you need help!" All the ponies looked at Pinkie.

Applejack spoke. "Pinkie that's crazy talk!" Applejack then looked at Fluttershy. She could tell she was hiding something. She was the element of honesty. "Right? Or are ya hiding somethin?" Fluttershy lowered her head.

"Its true." She said in a almost sad tone. All the ponies gasped.

"How did you know that?" Twilight  asked. Pinkie rubbed her hooves together deviously.

"I spy on all my best pony friend in the morning!" Twilight shivered at the thought. The other ponies ignored it because Pinkie was just crazy like that and they were used to it. Then the looked back at Fluttershy.

"So...yer on a date with Discord?" Applejack asked. Fluttershy nodded. "Well then we have to make this the worst date ever!" The girls looked at her with confusion. Applejack sighed and began to explain. "If we make this a terrible date then Discord will never want to go out with her again! And datin Discord would just be weird. And wrong. Very very wrong." The ponies nodded in agreement. Then they looked at Fluttershy.

"That is if its okay with you." Twilight said. Fluttershy thought about this for a moment. It would be really weird to date a friend. Especially Discord. She nodded.

"I shall make you a dress out of dirty rags!" Rarity yelled.

"I will cast a spell on you to make you disgusting!" Twilight shouted.

"Ah will get some old sweaty towels to use as deodorant!" Applejack said.

"I can zap you with lighting to make your mane and tail crazy!" Rainbow dash said enthusiastically. Pinkie pie said nothing. What could she do? Fluttershy felt uncomfortable about this. She was the element of kindness. And it wouldn't be very kind to ruin her first date and possibly Discord's first date. But what else could she do? Dating Discord would be insanity. She sighed and let the girls work. This was going to be a long day. A very long day. Rarity rushed home to collect all of her dirtiest rags and pieces if cloth to sew together. Applejack ran off to get her old sweaty towels she uses after a long day of work. Twilight began to cast her spell. Rainbow dash prepared a cloud. She smiled evilly. Pinkie pie just sat there and watched. It was pretty entertaining.

A few hours passed by and the girls were done. The once beautiful nature pony was a wreck. He mane and tail stood up in all directions. She wore old dish rags poorly sewn together. Applejack had rubbed her towels all over her making her smell awful. All the girls put their hooves up to their noses. And Fluttershy was constantly doing something gross because of Twilight's spell. She was perfectly hideous. And all done an hour early. The girls smiled at their work. Then just like that they left. Fluttershy then ripped the dress off. She couldn't ruin this date. It wasn't right.

She quickly took a shower and groomed her mane and tail. That took thirty minutes. She then quickly sprayed perfume all over herself. She couldn't smell bad either. That took another ten minutes because she had to borrow perfume. She couldn't own any because it was poisonous to her animals. She had to hurry. She quickly ran to Lyra's to borrow a dress and get the nasty spell removed from her. Another twenty minutes went by. She was ready. The only thing different about her was the light red dress she wore. It was very simple. She then rushed back home and waited for her date with Discord.
