Screwballs Nature
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThe next night Darksoul wanted to try again but screwball insisted he stay in bed
"Brother you need to heal" she scolded him.
"Awwww come on Screwy. The wound is already gone" Darksoul exclaimed flexing his right
shoulder muscles.
"That's because daddies magic courses through you blood" she proudly replied."
"I heal fast too but you need to still rest and eat well to replace the blood you lost. You push yourself too hard!" Her words
made sense and so Darksoul relented. Besides he did feel a little drained. As he rested he closely watched his sibling.
Then he noticed something about her that had been alluding his notice. There had been hints of it before, but before his
mind has always been preoccupied with other things.
Around her things! He was pretty sure she wasn't doing it on purpose either, it seemed to lack control.
She was preparing him breakfast, in a bowl on the counter one apple suddenly became three, she simply reached for one
and cut it into slices placing them into a salad bowl. As she sang mixed up songs to and occasionally spoke to herself
she seemed to not know where a desired ingredient was... and he saw that as she checked each cupboard and the pantry
the items would change..... at one point she put wilted lettuce in the salad not seeming to care and as she went back
to her hunt for another item it simply.....CHANGED, it became lush and green. Food, dishes, and even things that
didn't belong endlessly cycled the in the kitchens contents....when he thought of it he could never remember her once washing
a dish yet.....by next evening there were no dirty ones.
Darksoul had never watched his sister so intently before, and was caught awestruck by what he witnessed. It was subtle,
unconscious, IT was chaos weaving itself around her quietly.
"Screwy" he called out to her ""Em hmmm?" she replied caught up in
her preparation
"How is it that you fly?" he queried though he already had a guess.
"I dunno....I just do, I guess it's my nature."
'she doesn't fly!' he surmised to himself 'she simply goes where she wants.' he closed his eyes for a moment thinking of how
dangerous she would be if not for her innocent and childish nature.
"Sit up and eat!" she ordered with a smile. She hovered in front of him for a moment. her swirling green eyes never seeming to stop their motion.
"Thank you for breakfast" he told her as he sat up in bed and took the bowl and began to eat.
"Sister..." he continued questioning her as she sat next to him stealing a strawberry with an impish grin.
"Yesh?" she responded as she ate it.
"You told me once that you brought me to Discords statue right?" Her smile faded as she recalled that nights events
"Ye..yes" Screwballs voice trembled.
"Sorry screwy, it's just I had been wondering if anyone helped you." he explained gently petting her perpetually jumbled mane.
She leaned against his flank stealing what was now the last strawberry in the salad.
"No brother it was just me" Darksoul had already figured as much for he had never seen Screwball with anypony else.
'Such a journey!' he thought as he continued eating
'It must seem so natural to her, she was made from Discords power after all'
He gazed at her and smiled, she always seemed so small compared to him yet had brought his large body all that way.....
"It really is a lovely breakfast" he complimented to her, the light of a now fully risenmoon shining down on them both.
