A New Pony in Town

Kayti and Kaleb stood there…motionless and speechless as Devillia took Fluttershy in her hooves. She ripped the net off of her and snarled in her face.

“We’ll see how nice you are after this,” Devillia said wickedly. She lashed her…hard. Kayti grimaced. She then got angry and the anger over took her. Kayti jumped at the wicked mare. She laughed as she put Kayti in a trap as well. For good measure, she did this to Kaleb also. She turned her attention back to Fluttershy. “You will never again be kind!”

The mare beat her and beat her. Fluttershy tried to fight back but her kind nature did not allow her to do so. She only used violence when she felt she had to and that was not often. She really hated using it and would not use it against some pony she hardly knew. She only used it against Kayti because it was for some pony she loved, Discord. She knew that she would have to get angry and use violence.

She thought of things that made her angry. Discord was going to be destroyed after she was. She would not let that happen!

“STOP IT!” Fluttershy screamed. Devillia was taken back but kept beating her. This time Fluttershy hit back. They started fighting but there was a growl. The two fighting mares looked at the Discord statue. It was cracking open. Finally, Discord came out in anger.

“You will not hit my dear Fluttershy! You will eat the worst thing you have ever tasted and then be buried in the ground with that awful taste in your dying mouth!” Discord yelled. He tackled the spirit of cruelty and used his magic to put her in a net. It was the same kind of net that she used against Fluttershy. Fluttershy watched, tiredly, as Discord lashed out at her. He laughed at her as she hurt herself. Discord turned to a bleeding and bruised Fluttershy.

“Discord…” Fluttershy said in a hushed whisper, filled with pain and sorrow. Discord leaned down to her quivering lips and put his upon hers. A light shone brightly between them and they lifted in the air. When they pulled apart they fell and red shadows filled the sky. Devillia came out of the net and creamed in pain and victory.

“You are fools! You used cruelty towards me and pain only makes me stronger you idiots! I shall have cruelty everywhere! You will not have love and friendship but bullies and villains! I will be this world’s queen and you will be peasants! I hate every pony that has ever used kindness. Discord…I am so ashamed. I thought you were a villain but I was wrong! You have reformed and made friends with these disgusting ponies! I hope you all die a horrible and bloody death but…not quite yet. I have business to do! You have given me so much strength by fighting me that I can take over every pony and even the Princesses! Have fun staying here and watching idly by as I rule your petty and pathetic world!” Devillia screamed and flew away with wicked laughter echoing in the distance.

Discord and Fluttershy sat there on the grass, stunned. Fluttershy noticed Kayti and Kaleb in nets and pointed her hoof at them. Discord got up and used his magic to get them off, without causing pain to them. They had marks from where the electric nets shocked them but they weren’t too bad. Discord went to Fluttershy.

“Are you alright my dear?” Discord asked. Fluttershy got up weakly and then fell again with limp muscles. “I thought I healed you,” Discord said dumbfounded. Kayti and Kaleb came to her as well.

“Is she alright?” Kayti asked with tears in her eyes from the pain.

“I thought she was but she is weak,” Discord said. Kaleb spoke up.

“I read this as I was studying all spirits, good and evil. I read about Devillia but never knew her name was that. My books said spirit of cruelty but never her birth given name. It said she despised kindness and every pony or thing associated with it. She wanted to destroy kindness…or rather the element of kindness. I think I know what happened to Fluttershy. Devillia drained the kindness out of her and therefore her strength. I think she needs to rest and get her strength back,” Kaleb said. Discord nodded and he teleported them to her cottage.

He put her upstairs where she could sleep. The three of them met downstairs as she rested.

“What are we going to do?” Discord asked.

“I think we need to warn the Princesses,” Kayti said. Discord nodded. He then spoke up.

“I am going to go do that but I need you two to stay here and make sure Fluttershy is safe. I fear she might come back,” Discord said looking upstairs. Kayti and Kaleb nodded.
