Mamma mia (MLP) the musical
Chapter 4: Pony Linda (song)
Previous Chapter"Oh goodness!" said Fluttershy when she landed on the air mattresses of Cheese.
They were there. In front of her! The 3 of them! Her past loves! Especially the first one! And just now, on her daughter's wedding day!?!?! This can not be happening right now! She pulled herself together and finally woke up from her shock.
"Please, tell me that I'm only dreaming and that you're NOT really here." plead Fluttershy.
"Maybe I should throw you water with one of my joke-toys, so you can wake up Flutters!!!" said Cheese Sandwich.
With a little giggle, she stand up to get straight what was happening. How did they all get in here?!?! And why today!?!?
"That was funny Cheese, but please would you..." said Fluttershy, before seeing Spike, all grown up. "Oh my goodness, Spike. Is that you?"
"Yeah,well, you can tell that I have changed a bit. A lot actually, but I can see that you're still the same." said Spike rubbing the back of his neck.
"Different ages, but the same Fluttershy. What a shame." said Discord smirking and shaking his head.
That did it and burst Fluttershy's bubble and good mood. She made a serious face, which freaked-out a little the boys.
"Okay. Now, would you tell me... WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE??!?! I mean RIGHT here, in my old attic!!! In Ponyville!!!" said Fluttershy freaking out.
The boys looking at her panicked, so tried to calmed her down.
"Fluttershy relax! I'm here, just for a party that I heard was ahead. Like a wedding or something like that."said Cheese Sandwich trying to play innocent, while Discord face-palmed and Spike rolled his eyes.
"A... a ... wedding?" asked Fluttershy. Oh MY. This is bad. she thought. "What... what abut you two guys?Why are you here?"
"I'm just, y'know, looking for new gems and jewels for me and for investigation." said Spike.
"And i just... um... I came ...here... to... to say hi!" said Discord.
"Just to say 'hi'?" asked Fluttershy, not buying that for a moment. She began her way to the little door on the floor. "Well, hi to you too, but I'm afraid I can't have you here. There's no place for the three of you, with all my animals, my friends and my ... this other young mare; and this place is not good for you anyway, and..."
"Hey, Fluttershy, is alright!" said Discord before she left. "Cheese here is happy with this place and the beds, and Spike is used to sleep in this kind of places."
The stallion and the dragon nodded in agreement.
Fluttershy look up to see the draconequus eye to eye. "And... what about you?" she asked.
Discord looked at her deeply and said sincerely." I just came to visit Ponyville, especially this place. You know what it meant to me, and to you."
She was in the edge to cry, but she stayed strong to not make a scene right in front of them.
"Okay, so I'm going to ask for a train to take all of you to your home places... and..." tried to said Fluttershy.
"Um... I have a little kart for travelling Flutters." said Cheese.
"Oh, that's great. Please, just leave and right now if it's no problem." said Fluttershy before she left.
"Wait Fluttershy, wait!" said Discord. He and the other two guys said happily. "You're looking great!"
She rolled her eyes, and get out of the attic. When she went out the cottage, she flied as fast as she could to Sugar Cube Corner were her friends were. Without noticing, Screwball; Rainbow Dash and Twilight saw her leaving, really worried.
"Well, Plan A; which was don't let your mom know about this, is now officially ruined" said Twilight.
"So now, what are you gonna do Screwy?"asked Rainbow.
"I wish I knew Dashie. I wish I knew" said Screwball. "Hey Twilight! What was Plan B?"
"So you have worked for Mr and Ms Cake for how long, gentlecolt?" Rarity asked to a very fancy and handsome stallion.
"Not for long. Just four or five years. But now, I know very well everypony around here. Especially that sweet young mare Screwy. I'm so honored to got invited to her wedding." said the stallion.
"Uh, sorry pal but what was yerr name again?" asked Applejack, as her and Rarity were drinking a couple of sodas in the bar of Sugar Cube Corner.
"Mr. Fancy Pants, miss." he answered.
"And I'm Rarity!" squealed the unicorn with a blush. Applejack just rolled her eyes.
In just a minute, Fluttershy flied over them, totally panicking.
"Fancy Pants! Have you seen Screwball?!" she asked nervous.
"Uh, not recently. But I saw her with her friends wandering over the town." he answered.
"Hey, what's up hon?" asked Applejack.
Before she could say something, Fluttershy started to release some tears until she cry out loud, flying away form there to a bathroom in the place, leaving her two best friends worried.
"Fluttershy darling! Wait up!" said Rarity while she was standing up with her drink.
"What's wrong hon'?!" asked Applejack while she and Rarity followed Fluttershy to the bathroom.
The two mares followed her friend to the bathroom. When they arrived they tried to get her to open the door but it was useless. So Applejack decided to use the old method that can relax her shy friend: singing.
Pony linda
What’s goin’ on? sang Applejack
She looked at Rarity like giving her a cue.
You've never felt that way before. the unicorn sang, which only made the country mare rolled her eyes.
Please, don’t cry
We only wish that we can do more. both sang worried.
They decided to sneak in the bathroom door and try to look at her while they were singing, only to see Fluttershy's teary face.
I don’t like to see you like… that. sang Rarity
There's no reason to just hide it. sang Applejack
Trust in me
Feels better to talk about it.
At that note, Fluttershy closed the general bathroom's door, accidentally pushing and dropping Applejack and Rarity to the floor.
Pony linda
Tell us the truth.
We’re all ears
To hear what's wrong.
We are best friends
We are ones who you can count on. both mares sang to their friend, while she cries.
You are always showing kindness.
Making always other feel better.
But it is time
To put yourself together.
They both carried their friend and started to clean her eyes up, trying to get back her confidence by making her up and singing to her.
Pony linda
We already know.
That stallions just come and go
But friends are forever.
You will be singing again.
Until the show ends.
You'll have time for relaxing.
Pony linda
Everypony cries.
But the clouds clear up the sky
And did all that for you.
Let me hear again your voice.
Sing with your whole soul.
Sing your own song
Pony linda.
All ready and her eyes dry, Fluttershy felt better, and before Rarity convince to drink her soda to get her spirits up, she started to sing so she would feel a lot better.
Try once more
Like I sang before
Sing my own song. sang Fluttershy before she could finally speak.
"It's her dad." she said.
"Who's dad?" asked confused Rarity.
Fluttershy saw her with an obvious face. "Screwball's dad, Rarity." she said.
Rarity and Applejack looked at her with confused faces.
"Remember when I said that it was Discord, the old Lord of Chaos, the draconequus that lost her powers a long time ago?" Fluttershy asked.
"Of course I remember that darn varmint! He left ya for another mare!" Applejack exclaimed.
"Even worst, he cheated in you and the other mare, who was his fiance!" said Rarity.
"Yes, well. I'm not entirely sure if he was the father... because... I met... two other stallions around the same time." said shyly Fluttershy. "Well, actually one was a funny and kind stallion and the other one was a dragon."
"Fluttershy dear, you crazy filly" giggled Rarity.
"Wait, after the hole 'Discord incident' you had two other coltfriends?!?! Why didn't ya tell us?!?!"asked Applejack.
"I'm sorry for not telling you girls! But I didn't say anything because I never thought that I would never, ever, have to. I never imagine that I would see them again. Even worse. See the THREE of them, together, in my old attic, one day before my daughter's wedding!!!" exclaimed Fluttershy.
Rarity and Applejack stand there, smirking about Fluttershy just said. "The three of them in the old attic!?"
Both mares left Fluttershy while they were on their way to the old attic. Realizing her mistake, the pegasus mare flied as fast as possible to get them before was too late but she was never a fast flyer, so it was useless. When the three of them get there, the old attic was empty.
"Fluttershy, dear. There's nopony here!" said Rarity.
"Are you sure Flutters?" asked Applejack.
"Of course I'm sure. How can I forgot my daughter's possible dads?!" said Fluttershy. "It was the three of them. Discord, Spike and Cheese Sandwich."
"Wait, Cheese Sandwich. The party planner stallion? Golly, where did you met him?" asked Applejack
"That's not important Applejack, what's important it's that Screwball doesn't find out about this!" said Fluttershy. "Why are they all doing here?!? It's like the goodness Faust is playing with my fate!"
With that a lot of other ponies laughed, but when the mares turned they went silent. Confused Fluttershy fly to her cottage with a lot in her head, with her friends joining her. The three of them didn't realize that Screwball and her friends were on the attic listening the conversation.
"Well, now that Plan B; which was to make sure other ponies besides your mom don't find out about this, is ruined too, what do we do now?!?" asked Twilight.
"Hey, if the attic was empty, then where are your 'dads'?" asked Rainbow.
"Maybe they're on their way to Cheese's kart! Hurry! We must stop them!!!" said Screwball.
The three friends started running to the end of Ponyville, before it was too late. Screwball just found her possibles dads, she was not gonna lose them again!
