Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Fluttershy was feeding her animals when Discord woke up. "Where am I?" He said. When he saw the little Pegasus he got on all fours an growled. She shrunk into a ball and whimpered. "Ow!" He said. Angel Bunny had thrown an acorn at him. He rubbed his head where the acorn had hit him. "Little beast..." He grumbled. "Angel! That's no way to treat a guest!" Scolded the Pegasus. "I'm so sorry. My name's Fluttershy. What's you name?" She asked.

"Wait. You don't know me? How long have I been out?" He asked.

"Well... about two days here... Then how ever long you were in that ice..."

He gulped. "Ice...? How long has it really been?" He asked himself.

"So... Do you have a name?" She asked again

"Uh... Oh! Right I'm - erm - Discord..." He finally answered.

"Well then. Discord, what do you want for breakfast? Boiled eggs?"

"Sure. With marmalade."

"Marmalade?" She asked with an 'are-you-sure?' tone

"Mmhm."

"Um... Okay...?" She said rolling her eyes. She walked into the kitchen and got to work.


"Discord? Are you sure he said Discord?" Asked Twilight. Fluttershy had gone to the library to see Twilight about Discord.

"I'm sure." Fluttershy confirmed.

"Because it says here that Discord was the Lord of Chaos." She said. "He took over Equestria. But when the two Sisters tried to defeat him..." Her voice trailed off.

"What happened?" Asked the worried Pegasus.

"He escaped..." Fluttershy gasped. The two stared at each other.

"So... Then... I have a... Lord of Chaos... inside my home?!" She cried.

"The Lord of Chaos." Twilight corrected.


When Fluttershy got home her house was a wreak. The ceiling was raining chocolate milk, the couch was turned to cotton candy and the floor was all soapy. Discord was on the couch drinking his... cup. When he noticed she was home, he snapped his fingers and everything was turned back to normal. She looked at him with a 'what-were-you-thinking?!' look. He grinned slyly. 'How nice it would be to caress that silky pink hair...' He thought. He quickly dismissed it though. Fluttershy looked at him uncomfortably, rubbing her fore leg. "I um... know who you... are..." She said carefully. "And I uh..."

"You hate me now?" He guessed. His smile was gone.

"What?! No! I just..." She couldn't seem to find words.

"You're afraid?" He guessed again, rolling his eyes. "That's news."

"No... I'm not. I'm afraid that others will recognize you."

"Like who?"

"Well... Apparently... You escaped about a thousand years ago... And the only ones who've been alive that long are... The princesses."

"Well maybe I don't care!" He said.

"I think you do." She countered. He hissed at her. "Anyways..." She said. "Would you prefer the bed or the couch?"

"I think couch." He said.

"Alright then. Good night!" She smiled. and went upstairs to bed.
