Love is Magic

Discord ran and ran fast, he hoped they would never catch him, he heard the alarm go off

"SEIZE HIM!" shouted a voice, Discord looked behind him, he saw queen Chrysalis's angry face, and the guards running after him

Discord turned back around and continued running, never looking back, the guards chased him into the woods, they looked around, they continued forward, Discord walked out behind a tree and ran into the bushes of ponyville.

Fluttershy trotted along the trail, as happy as could be, she sang to herself quietly, she then heard something rustling in the bushes she turned around but saw nothing, she continued down the path, she then heard something yet again, when she turned around she swore she saw something in the bushes.

"H-Hello?" she asked shakily "Who's there?"

Nothing.

She slowly stepped towards the bushes and moved them, she saw a chimera, she screamed, so did Discord as he ran, Fluttershy stopped for a minute,....maybe she didn't she a chimera, she shrugged nervously and continued to walk forward, when she suddenly heard somepony shout

"SOMEPONY CALL THE PRINCESS"

Fluttershy ran over to the cause of the noise, she saw the chimera forcefully being held down by a stallion, a few hours later there was a mob around the creature and Celestia was in front of the creature.

"What's his punishment your highness?" asked one of the guards

"Eternity in prison" she responded,

Fluttershy looked at the creature, she could tell he was close to tears from the pain, seeing this made her close to tears as well, he was too young to be imprisoned.She ran up to the guards before they took him away

"WAIT, please, your highness" she cried

Celestia turned her head in surprise, so did Discord

"Please,......don't turn him to stone,...he's too young,....I know I sound foolish, but please" she took a deep breath "I want to reform him"

Celestia looked down at the small filly, then to Fluttershy's and the other's surprise, she smiled

"What is your name?" she asked

"F-Fluttershy your highness," said the filly bowing

Celestia put a hoof under her chin

"You are the kindest hearted pony I've ever seen, however, are you sure you wish to take on this task?"

Fluttershy looked at the creature, then at everypony else, she took another deep breath, and replied "Yes"

"HOLD ON" shouted a voice, a small pink filly with fancy purple hair came out of the crowd, she was glaring at Fluttershy

"Your highness, do you really believe that a hideous and demented creature like THAT can be reformed?" she said pointing at Discord

"I do indeed"

"Still, do you think that this foolish filly can do something like THAT? I mean LOOK AT HER" she exclaimed "She's afraid of her own SHADOW" Fluttershy turned her head and looked at her shadow, she squeaked and cowered, while the other filly laughed cruelly until Celestia put a wing in front of her

"That is quite enough," he said firmly while she walked over to Fluttershy and smiled, she then turned around and addressed her subjects

"Citizens of ponyville, I hereby give Fluttershy the task of reforming Discord, she maybe a small filly, but even the greatest hero started with just one step" the rude filly stalked off after letting out a "hmmph" while the guards released Discord, he walked over to Fluttershy to get a closer look at her, she had long pretty lotus hair, a buttercream complexion, and gorgeous teal eyes, Fluttershy smiled nervously

"So, you're trying to reform ME? Good luck" he scoffed

Fluttershy gasped "You CAN talk"

"OF COURSE I can talk, do you even know who I am?"

"Well...." she tried to hide her blush of embarrassment behind her mane "I know that your name is discord," she said somewhat lamely

Discord rolled his eyes "I'd give it a "D-plus"

Fluttershy started walking towards her parent's house

"Mom?Dad?" she asked shyly, she then sighed in relief, they were asleep, she then walked into the garden and sat down, her eyes widened when she saw a cotton candy cloud raining chocolate milk, Discord looked at her

"What? I have magic too" he said as though it was rudely obvious

"Oh,.....I'm sorry," she said lowering her head, it was then that Discord noticed that she had a little slip of paper in her mouth

"What's that?" he asked

"Oh,....it's a note from Princess Celestia, she wrote down a good deed you have to do to prove that your good" Fluttershy explained

Discord rolled his eyes "Typical girly ponies" he thought to himself

"Um,...Discord, are you okay?" Fluttershy asked

"Oh yes I'm fine, in fact, I want nothing more to be your friend," he said smiling

"Really?" asked Fluttershy in surprise

"Don't you know anything about sarcasm?" he asked rudely frowning

"O-Of course I do, I'm just,....." she trailed off

"Yeah, yeah, Shy, I KNOW"

"Yes,.....anyways, according to the paper, you have to,......." she looked up at him

"Fix a leak in the weather factory"

"WHAT?" asked Discord, why did it have to be to fix something?

"It's what the paper says," said Fluttershy.

"I don't care what the paper says" snapped Discord folding his arms.

"Please?" asked Fluttershy

"No, net, nine, nay, negative, NEVER," he said rudely.

Fluttershy sighed, she gave up, she didn't know why she thought she could do this, she walked into her parent's house hanging her head.

Discord opened one eye and looked around, he sighed and flew to the weather factory, and used his magic to fix an enormous leak, he then tip-toed away when he saw Celestia smiling down at him.

"Well done Discord, it appears Fluttershy has succeeded in reforming you"

Discord groaned and folded his arms "Just don't tell her" he muttered

Celestia nodded and flew back to Canterlot, once she was sure no pony was around, however, she started writing on a piece of parchment

Dearest Fluttershy........
