The Choice is Yours, Discord

***

Discord had it all planned out, he would make lunch for the both of them in the form of a picnic in the meadows. Discord would be his amazing self and charm her, then and only then would he confess his feelings. Discord got to work making the lunch that consisted of fruit salad made of pineapple, green grapes, red merlot grapes, apples courtesy of Sweet Apple Acres, bananas, pears, blueberries, and dragon fruit. A few small cheese wheels with those tiny cheese knives, two muffins leftover from breakfast with tweaking to make it fresh out of the oven once more. Some grape juice on ice was the cherry on top, everything was complete. All Discord had to do now was wait.

Minutes turned to hours, and pretty soon it became to be night time. Discord sat there on edge, and only asked through the darkness of the cottage.

"Where are you...Fluttershy?"

"Discord! Discord! Wake up!"

Discord groaned as his back ached severely, "Wha?" he sat up and glanced around. It was midnight now, and there was no light in Fluttershy's cottage that was on. Discord knew he was sitting on the cold hardwood floor and was not comfy, so he stood up and stretched. "What's wrong Princess Twilight?" he asked, being able see the lavender alicorn through the darkness.

"Spare the formalities! We have a major problem!" Twilight shouted. She seemed frantic and scared, so something had to be wrong. Twilight teleported them to Canterlot Castle and dashed to the throne room where Celestia, Luna, and Cadence awaited for the gathering. The six ponies of friendship ran in, frantic like Twilight. Well...not exactly six. Fluttershy wasn't there, and that concerned Discord greatly, as he should have been.

Discord glanced around, "Where on Equestria is Fluttershy? She's never late!"

"That's what we called you here for!" Rainbow Dash said, "She was kidnapped!"

Discord froze, 'Kidnapped? Oh chaos tell me she's joking!'

Celestia gave him a ratty torn up letter, "We received this letter over an hour ago, we believe it's from Lord Tirek..."

Discord looked up at Celestia, "How could you possibly know that?"

"I recognize his messy barbaric hand writing anywhere," Celestia muttered, "We believe he kidnapped Fluttershy, and he wasn't alone..."

"How do you know he's not working alone?" Discord questioned.

Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes, "Just read it..."

Discord then began to read it:

Dear Ponies of Equestria:

It's been awhile since we've last met hasn't it? But don't worry, we shall meet again...when me and my associate crush you!

But that's not why I have written this letter, the reason I am writing this letter is to request that the God of Chaos, Discord meet me in the Everfree Forest ALONE! If he refuses, let him know we have one of his friends! The yellow and pink pony that is such a crybaby! If he doesn't show up with in the next 24 hours, we will do the unthinkable to that pony! Don't think we won't hesitate to smash her!

The clock is ticking,

LT&KS

"Judging by the crude handwriting, we know that Lord Tirek wrote this as well as his intitals..." Princess Luna said, "And KS can only stand for King Sombra... We knew he would return someday, we just didn't think he would team up with the most deadliest monster in Equestria."

Twilight stepped forward, "Discord, you have to go...don't do it for us, do it for Fluttershy..." she flinched, "I hate to think about what those monsters are doing to her right this second… She's really frail! She can't make it out there alone..."

Discord remained silent as he thought of Fluttershy. He saw her in pain...pleading...CRYING....

"Oh I'm going all right...to rescue her..."
