How It All Began

In the land of Equestria, far away there is a kingdom called the Rain Dukedom. It was a raining day in the Rain Dukedom. The ponies were working hard to cast a barrier around the market place to prevent it getting wet.

In the palace the king was sitting on his throne sulking at his adviser Fancy Pants.

" Your majesty why would you want a queen, you have everything you want here " said Fancy Pants to the king.

" I already said that i need a queen for the kingdom because the people of the land are afraid of me. I need a queen they can trust and rely on that's why " the king said grinning at his adviser. " And because im bored of course" Fancy Pants looked at the king and sighed.

" So you want me to sent a message to all the kingdoms in Equestria that your looking for a bride, your majesty" Fancy Pants said while taking his notebook.

The king stud up and begin to walk down the stage while talking to his adviser.

" No not to all the kingdoms of Equestria. Send one to the kingdom of Sunlight that's all " waving his claw at Fancy Pants.

Fancy pants looked at him confused.

" If i may, your majesty, why only the Sunlight kingdom ? "

The king laughs at Fancy Pants who is still confused.

" I heard from a little bird that the kingdom of sunlight has four beautiful daughters that have the power to summen the sun at their will with their voices. They can use that power too bring light to their kingdom. Even i can't do that. Thats why. It brings a little sunshine to the kingdom at the same time "

Saying this the king transformed himself in a giant bird. Fancy Pants looked at the king with a straight face. The king always does this often so it's normal for Fancy Pants to see the king like this.
Fancy Pants says to the king that he will send a message the Sunlight kingdom as soon as possible and walks out the throne room living the king alone at his throne.

"this is going to be fun, I'm going to have a blast with my new bride. I hope that she wont be boring that would be a shame, if she a boring pony like all the rest i already know what to do, i will trow her in the dungeon and let her rot for a while or put her in the tickleroom day and night ""

The king was grinning at his thoughts as the day came to an end.

Faraway in de Sunlight kingdom the sun was as bright as always.

The ponies of the Sunlight kingdom were happy and at peace until a particular pegasus flew through the ponies. It was a blue coated pegasus mare with rainbow colored mane.

" Come on Fluttershy you can do better than that. If you don't hurry up we will be late " the blue pegasus said, while flying.

Behind her was a yellow coated pegasus with a pink mane flying with al her might to keep up with the blue pegasus.

" Slow down Rainbow dash, I can't fly anymore" said fluttershy, out of breath but still flying after her sister to the palace of the sunlight kingdom. The ponies at the market looked at the two pegasu's flying to the palace.

" Hey were those not the two princesses of our kingdom ? '' said a pony in the crowd while looking at his partner.

" Yes i belief so, I think it was the third princesses Rainbow Dash and the fourth princesses Fluttershy. They always rush to things " the mare said to her partner doing her own thing again.

In the throne room Rarity a white coated unicorn with blue dark almost purple mane was waiting for her sisters to arive. She was asked for an important discussion with her sisters and parents. It seems that a letter has arrived from Rain Dukedom.

Her mother queen Celestia always thide the sunrise she was all so in control of the sun and her father king Sombra thide the sunset and also was in control of the moon and darkness.

Rarity looks at the big door being opend and walking though it was an purple coated unicorn with purple mane. She walked in the throne room while levitating a book with her Horn.

" Ah, Twilight your finally here, I was tired of waiting " Rarity said while walking to Twilight.

" Have you seen Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash? There are supposed to be here, I at least expect Rainbow Dash to be here. She's always on time" Rarity said to Twilight, but Twilight was more interested in here book then to listen to here sister.

" There likely on their way now as we speak, don't worry Rarity " Twilight said to Rarity, still looking at her book.

With a hard bang the big doors are opening again, but this time there was a scream along with it.

" WHERE ARE SORRY WE WERE LATE " Rainbow Dash shouts, while being out off Breath.
It took her a while to see only her two elder sisters were in the throne room.

" Never mind " said Rainbow Dash flying to Twilight and Rarity.

" Rainbow you should really would work on you entry, its not very lady like to shout " Rarity said to Rainbow Dash.

" What's the big problem, I only shouted because i thought we were late, that's all " Rainbow said looking angry at Rarity.

" Well barching in like that wasn't nesesarry to begin with, what if somepony was standing there ? They would have broken a leg or two" Rarity said in Rainbow Dash's face.

Twilight was already getting annoyed by her two sisters " Now let's calm down, We don't fight with each other " Twilight said while standing between the two.

" Rainbow dash where's Fluttershy ? Have you seen her ? She will miss the summoned " Twilight Said looking at the mare.

Rainbow Looked at the door " I don't know? She was right behind me when i was flying in here " Rainbow said with a worried look on her face.

While in the hallway Fluttershy was walking to the throne room too tired of flying so long and fast. Rainbow Dash is probably in the throne room by now Fluttershy thought. While walking she Looked at the beautiful view from the windows of the hallway, not looking were she Walked she stumbled on a little dragon with green scales.

" Ooh i'm so sorry Spike, I wasn't looking were i went " Fluttershy Said to Spike and helped him up on his feet.

" No worries princess, I wasn't looking were i went either " Said Spike taking the princess hoove.

Spike was Twilights assistant but everpony in the royal family thought of his as a little brother, because he was here for as long they could remember.

" Should you not be at the summoned princess? It's about to start, You should Hurry up princess you don't wanne be late " Spike said to the princess while removing the dust of him.

" Ooh my gosh! Your right i need to Hurry, I'm already late thank you Spike see you later " Fluttershy said running to the throne room.

When she was by the big doors of the throne room she heard shouts coming from the throne room. when she looked inside the throne room for what is going on in there she saw her three sisters shouting at each other.

" She was right behind me when we entered the palace, So don't blame me" Rainbow dash said getting annoyed from her sister.

" You know that she can't fly as fast you Rainbow, So why didn't you slow down for her? She's probably lost in the palace now" Rarity said trying to reason with her sister.

Twilight was trying to stop the two from fighting with each other.

" How can she be lost? She lives in the palace for ages, Rarity " Twilight said shaking her.

" What ! you where once lost in the castle, Don't you remember " Rainbow said before Rarity could.

" That's right, it's was in the library i think if i remember correctly " Rarity said grinning at Twilight who was blushing.

" That was when i was a foal, That does not count " Twilight said still blushing.

Fluttershy was standing at the entrance of the throne room " Uh girls i'm right here " Fluttershy said but they did notice her.

" Why would you say that, It was only one time that that happened " Twilight said to her sisters who were laughing at her.

" Yes and then you became a egghead with your nose in a book all the time" Rainbow dash said laughing at her sister.

" Well you should do that more too, you can learn a lot from books Rainbow Dash, you could use some for your brain " Rarity said laughing at her joke.

Fluttershy was still standing at the entrance of the door she tried again a little harder "Girls i'm already here please stop fighting " Fluttershy said but was still not heard by her sisters.

" You take that back right now " Rainbow dash said getting angry of the insult her sister said to her.

" I only said what was true " Rarity said sticking her nose in the air.

Twilight tried to keep her laugh in but it was difficult to keep it like that.

Fluttershy was getting annoyed by all the noise and yelled " GIRLS I'M ALREADY HERE PLEASE STOP WITH ALL THE YELLING PLEASE " every pony looked at her with shocking looks on there faces.

" Uhm Fluttershy, Your the one yelling now " Rainbow said with a straight face again.

" Oh my, I'm sorry but you were all fighting and i didn't know what the do, I'm sorry everypony " Fluttershy said hiding behind her mane.

" It's quite alright Fluttershy at least we stopped fighting now " Twilight said trying to cheer her up.

" Yes, It's alright were not angry at you for it so cheer up okay sweetie " Rarity said trying to do the same as Twilight they were disturbed when a loud voice said.

" I see that everypony is here, we can start with the summoned, It's quite important that you all listen careful to what i'm about to say "

the princesses all looked at the opening of the door, standing there was an dark gray coated stallion with dark mane and a red horn.
He walked past the princesses and on too the throne across the room when he turned around and took place at the throne he sat looking down on his daughters.

" My beautiful daughters, You were summoned today because a letter was send from Rain Dukedom, The king of that land has requested a bride from the Sunlight kingdom" the king said with a worried look on his face. all the princesses started to shout at the king.

" Father you can't be serious with this " Twilight said too the king.

" We can't marry some pony we don't even know, That isn't right father " Rarity said with a shocking face.

king Sombra held up his hoove to silence his daughters.

" With Rain Dukedom on our side we can bring peace to the kingdom of sunlight, We been fighting the changelings for to long now with the resources of Rain Dukedom we can defend the kingdom and maybe end this war " king Sombra said with a straight face but sadness in his eyes.

" For a long time now the kingdom of Sunlight was in war with the changelings. They cost many distruction across the land and countless lives of ponies who battled against it or just Innocent ponies their lived there, But in time they pushed the changelings back to the dark forest where they came from. We don't know when they will strike again but what we know is that we won't survive another attack. With the power of Rain Dukedom we will be able to survive another attack, maybe end this war for good" king Sombra said looking at his daughters faces he needed to decide with one he needs to let go.

" The king of Rain Dukedom asked for the most beautiful daughter of the kingdom of Sunlight to be his bride in return for an alliance he will help us when we need it, Its a good opportunity to and this war " king Sombra said from his throne looking down at his shocked faces of his daughters.

" So the king of Rain Dukedom want's a bride but i heard he's a cruel, ruthless, and tyrannical ruler and a ugly monster " Rarity said looking worried for she would be probably the bride of that monster for she was quite the beautiful mare herself.

" I'm not going to be some kind of prize for a ugly monsters like him " said Rainbow dash too her father looking angry at him because it was true what rainbow said he was going to give his daughters as a prize to the king of Rain Dukedom.

" Maybe he is just lonely and sad for he has nobody to love and nobody that can give him love " Fluttershy said very soft but it went noticed by Rainbow dash.

" So you say you are willing to marry a cruel and ruthless monster like him " looking at Flutteshy shocked that she said such things about a monster.

" But those are all rumors, Right father ? " said Fluttershy trying to convince her sisters that the king of Rain Dukedom is maybe kind and sweet instead of cruel and ruthless monster.

The king looked at his youngest daughter and smiled at her for she had a kind heart for everypony.

" Your right Fluttershy, Those are all rumors, So we don't know if there even real, I still need to make a choice for which one will be the king's bride or you can choose for yourself if you want to ? " king Sombra said

The princesses looked at each other but said nothing.

" How about a game of rock, paper and scissors ?" the king said summoning three little rocks, three scissors and three sheets of paper.

" Now choose your object " the king said to the four princesses who looked at the king Annoyed.

" Are we really doing this father? This is for little foals " said Twilight rolling her eyes at him as he laughed at her.

" But daughter of my, Didn't you love this game when you were little? You girls always did this when you couldn't decide on something " king Sombra said.

" Yes, But father that was so long ago, why now ? " Rarity said agreeing with Twilight.

" Because, We will never have a bride for the king of Rain Dukedom in twenty moon from now, If we keep at it like this" king Sombra said with a annoying tone.

The four princesses did what there father told them and took each one a object but did not let the other see what they took. When they were ready they would show what there objects were, the loser will marry the king of rain dukedom.

" Alright ready " Rarity said.

" One " Twilight said.

" Two " Rainbow dash said.

" Three " Fluttershy said.

They showed there object at each other at the same time. Rainbow dash , Twilight and Rarity had both a scissor in there hooves only Fluttershy had paper in her hooves and know she had lost this game and was going to marry the king of Rain Dukedom.

Her sisters where sad that there youngest sister. For she was going to become the bride of a monster, so they tried to cheer her up.

" Maybe he's not a monster as we thought, Maybe he's kind and sweet, Don't you think Rarity ? " Twilight said to Rarity signaling her to join in.

" Of course he's a gentle colt, He's a king after all, right Rainbow dash ? " Rarity said kicking her sister on the shoulder to get her attention.

" Aahhww, But of course he needs to be a gentle colt or els i will kill him with my own hooves you hear me Fluttershy, If he does anything to hurt your just call and i will come alright " Rainbow dash said making a fist with her hooves and smiling at her sister.

" Thank you every pony, but don't worry i will be alright, how bad can it be? right ? " Fluttershy said gulping at the thought of becoming the bride of the king of Rain Dukedom that everypony fears of.

A Day In The Rain

It was a new day, the sun is shining and the sky is blue, well that's what Fluttershy is accustomed to see but this time not. It was raining hard, the streets were underwater with small ponds of water everywhere. The sky was gray and sad looking, filled with clouds.

" Here ya'll go Fluttershy, a raincoat for you to wear. " Apple Jack Said giving the raincoat to Fluttershy to put on.

" Thanks you Apple Jack, i'm gone need one if i'm going outside, it's raining pretty hard. Don't you think ? " Fluttershy Said walking outside the house.

" It's normale here in Rain Dukedom, you get just to it. " Apple blood Said putting her raincoat on.

" Wherever you come from, it never rains, right. " Said apple Jack wondering how that works. When they walked outside going to the town square, while talking about the rain and sun.

" Well, yes it never rains were i came from, but that's only because we, The royal family can use our voice to summon the sun and everything the represents it. " Fluttershy said too the two sisters that looked confused.

" What do you mean with controlling the sun? No pony can do that only alicorns can do that, i think ? " Apple Jack said only getting more confused about the subject at hoof.

" Well, originally, yes. Only alicorn could rise and lower the sun and moon, but since i am the daughter of queen Celestia who rises the sun, i can also summon the sun, but not rise or lower it." said Fluttershy explaining how the royal family can use magic without using a horn but with there voice.

" But what do you mean with "everything that represents it ?" Says Apple bloom looking confused at Fluttershy, wanting to know what it means.

" It means that everything that has a connection with the sun, i can also control, like fire or the sun light itself and even the wind if i wanted to" Fluttershy said telling them about the power she had.

" But wait, wind doesn't have connections with the sun, do they ? " Apple boom said listening to Fluttershy's story, while talking they were at the town square and sat down under the tree to get shelter from the rain.

" It is connected to the sun because it's in the sky, i know it doesn't make sense, right? " Fluttershy said remembering that she was also confused when her mother told her that and laughed at it, remembering that Apple bloom made the same face as she deed back then.

" Hay, Fluttershy ! Do you know how to get to the capital from here ? " Apple Jack said changing the subject.

" I was thinking to that a wagon or something because flying there would be to far. " Fluttershy said not knowing so sure how to get too the capital.

" Well flying to the capital is out of the question. You should be able to take a caravan to the capital, we just have to find one that is going their. " Apple jack said thinking about everything for Fluttershy to get to the capital.

" That's great ! Were do we find one ? " Fluttershy said getting happy about the plan not knowing they wore being watched in the shadows.

Fluttershy, Apple jack and a Apple bloom wore asking around if a caravan was available to take Fluttershy to the capital, but no one had luck finding one.

" It seen that some are going to an other destination or can't go today " says Apple bloom at Apple jack who was just done talking to a stallion shaking his head.

" Same here, looks like there just too busy to take Fluttershy to the capital. " Apple jack said walking away from the stallion and too Apple bloom.

" Looks like Fluttershy doesn't have better luck then us, sis. " Apple bloom said looking in the direction were Fluttershy was talking too a old stallion who shook his head in disappointment.

" I have no luck finding an caravan. " Fluttershy said flying towards Apple Jack and Apple bloom landing in front of them.

" I will ask Big Mac to take you there Fluttershy, since nopony can take you there but my brother. " Apple jack said walking back to the house direction.

" No ! I can't let you do that. You've already done so much for me, i just keep looking. " Fluttershy said not wanting to trouble the Apple family more then she already did.

" Don't worry sugar cube. Were happy to help and we don't mind at all. " Apple jack said looking behind her at Apple bloom.

" Apple bloom. Why don't y'all go wait for me here, alright ? " apple jack said turning her back to them and walked home to get Big Mac.

In the corner of the street the two mysterious colt's trying to following Apple jack to her house.

" Are you sure this is a good idea ? " Snails said following Snips behind him trying not to attract any attention to them.

" Are you still on that?, we will get a big money reward if we take her out. " Snails said looking very close at there target, as she went left at a corner from the bakery. Following her to the next corner of the shop they see that she was buying bread.

" But this is ponynapping, you sure that we can handle this ? " Snails said getting just more nervous about the idea.

" I wish that we could a normal job that was a little more low-profile. " Snails said thinking about it.

" This is our chance to level up as villains. " Snips said grinning at the idea of becoming a villain.

" But I'm happy with the way things are ! " Snails said complaining about the plan. But Snips was not listening to his partner, he looked as Apple jack turned in a alley next to the bakery.

" Let's go, now's our chance. " Snips said following the mare in the alley with Snails behind him. Apple jack was almost home She looked in front of seeing her house almost before she heard a strange noice coming from behind her. She tried to look behind her but was knocked unconscious before she could do something.

Fluttershy who was waiting with Apple bloom got a sudden feeling that something was wrong she looked around but she saw only pony's in the rain walking through each other, she then felt the wind against her fur being pushed back, then she know what was happening, she looked at Apple bloom and said " we need to go home there's something wrong there but i don't know for sure " looking at Apple bloom with a worried look on her face, not making it any better for Apple bloom.

" What's going on ? Fluttershy ? " Apple bloom said following Fluttershy on the way home.

" All i know is that something is wrong. I can't really explain it but all i know is we got to hurry ! " Fluttershy said running in the rain with Apple bloom close behind her. When they finally arrived home almost breaking the door op, Fluttershy looked around to finding Big mac in the kitchen, she ran to him still looking around.

" Big mac ! Has Apple jack return home yet ? " Fluttershy said getting worried about her friend.

" Nope ! " Big mac said not knowing sure what's going on. All he know was that his little sister and there friend broke the door and were worried for some reason. Fluttershy looked at him in disbelieve.

" Apple jack should be home by know unless. " Fluttershy thought, she went outside in the rain and closed her eyes feeling the wind around her, moving the wind with her voice that was only a whisper, she concentrated to find Apple jack with the wind of this land. " i can use it, the air of this land, maybe we can get along after all, help me find my friend. "

Snips and snails were running though the streets with a huge bag on there backs. They wore laughing for there plan worked wonderful, in the bag was apple jack struggling to get free, she was tied up and muzzled to prevent her from screaming.

" Hurry, Hurry up Snails, let's get this done quick and let's get something good to eat ! " Snips said running out of breath from caring the big bag on there backs and in the rain. Apple jack was struggling pretty much tying to get free but it didn't work.

" Hey, Snips. " Snails said a little worried by the pony in the bag.

" What is it ? I don't got time to talk right now. " Snails said lifting the bag higher with his magic to run faster.

" You're sure this is the mare ? Right? " Snails said looking worried at Snails not knowing for sure that it is the right pony.

" Why do you ask ? " Snips said turning his head to look at Snails.

" There's something about the smell, i guess ? She was a bit more quite, wasn't she ? " Snails said as Apple jack struggled again with all her might. Snips now looked worried as well for what Snails said was true, this mare has been struggling for a while and made quit the noise while being tied up. Snips ran around the next corner stopping in a alley, there wore crates on the ground next to the walls getting wet from the rain. They placed the big bag on the floor in-between the two crates. Snips opens the bag reveling the pony in side, looking closely at the pony Snips saw that it wasn't the yellow pegasus they wore suppose to take.

" She's not even a pegasus ! " Snips said getting frustrated by the situation at hoove.

" I know it ! " Snails said being happy he was right about the pony in the bag.

" Don't say " i know it " say this stuff sooner. " Snips said getting angry at Snails.

" Sorry i just thought it was my imagination, the colors of her mane and coat were different too. " Snails said leaning against the wall across from the wall where Apple jack was sitting against to prevent getting wet from the rain.

" We don't have a choice, let's try again. " Snips said looking at Apple jack.

" What do we do with her ? kill her ? " Snails said looking angry at Apple jack trying to look intimidating.

" You jumped a few levels there, but that's not a bad idea. She knows what we look like so we can't let her go. " Snips said looking evil at Apple jack who was getting scared by the two colt's for what they might do to her.

" Sorry, lady but we got you and there's no one that can heard you so give it up. " Snails said getting closer and closer to Apple jack who was struggling with al her might and trying to scream for help. It only made them laugh at her coming closer to her when a strong wind blow in there faces along with rain drops who fell from the sky.

" What's going on ? " Snips said looking where that strong wind came from. He saw at the opening of the alley a yellow pegasus standing there in the rain, it was Fluttershy trying to save her friend.

" If you put one scratch on Apple jack, you'll pay for it ! " Fluttershy said being angry at the two colt's who was planning to hurt her friend. She never felt so angry in her life for what they wore trying to do too her friend. Snips and Snails was taking back by the angry face she was showing them.

" Hey ! it's her! " Snails said pointing at Fluttershy with his hoove.

" Lucky us. " Snips said walking to Fluttershy levitating a knife that he got from his pocket and pointed it at Fluttershy.

" This is great, if you come along quietly, we'll go easy on you " Snips said with a low voice trying to sound cool and dangerous.

" Snips. your so cool ! " Snails said looking at Snips admiring hi partner. But fluttershy didn't looked scared at all she just stands there and whispered something so low that Snips and Snails it didn't hear, when she stopped whispering the knife was cut in the middle of the blade and broke down to pieces, leaving the two colt's shocked at what they just saw. Snips was not letting this happen for he jumped towards Fluttershy trying to knock her down. When Fluttershy saw this and opened her wings for there was a powerful wind going towards the two colt's blowing them away out of the alley. Apple jack saw everything what just happened and couldn't believe it. She looked at Fluttershy who was smiling kindly at her like nothing happened.

It was almost evening. The day was almost at an end. Fluttershy stood in front of the Apple family's door outside with her saddle bag on her back. The two colt's gave her saddle bag back at least what was over from it. Meany stuff of her was sold away but Fluttershy didn't care about it, it was just stuff she could always buy new ones.

" You're heading out now ? " Apple bloom said looking sad at Fluttershy, not wanting her to go.

" I got my saddle bag back. I'd better get moving before it's to dark. " Fluttershy said looking at the sky raining down at her.

" Good luck and thank you again for saving me. " Apple jack said bowing her head as a sign of thank you too Fluttershy.

" After you become a princess, will you stay away forever ? " Apple bloom said with a sad tone in her voice almost crying for losing her friend.

" You really think i'm that cold ? " Said Fluttershy bowing down at Apple bloom facing her. Apple bloom shook her head answering Fluttershy's question.

" I'll stay in your room next time i'm here. I want to hear your story's when i come back. " Fluttershy said smiling at Apple bloom when a voice called at Fluttershy.

" Mis ! We're about to head out ! " Snips said tied up in front of a caravan to pull it with Snails.

" It's getting dark ! " Snails said next to Snips tied up in front of the caravan. After that blast of a wind, they we're kind enough to take her to the capital.

" Are you sure you can trust them ? " Apple jack said looking suspicious at the two colt's in front of the caravan.

" Don't you think they'll take you somewhere shady ? " Apple bloom said knowing what happened to her sister from Fluttershy after she came home with Apple jack.

" Yeapuh ! " Big mac said not trusting them for what they did to his sister.

" I think they learned their lesson. They gave me my stuff back and giving me a ride to the capital. " Fluttershy said knowing if they tried anything to her they will have to learn the hard way. Fluttershy took a piece of white fabric from her saddle bag and showed it to the siblings.

" I meant to present this to the king on my arrival, but i wanted to thank you. " Fluttershy said holding the white fabric in her hoove.

" Wow ! you're really spoiling us here at the end. My sisters did this out of kindness, so.... " Said Big mac looking at the fabric not even knowing what to do with it until he was interrupted by Fluttershy.

" I know. That's why i want t repay you with kindness, too " Fluttershy said using her magic to lift the white fabric in too the sky and moving the rainclouds away from the sun who was about to set and stopping the rain at the same time. Letting the sunlight on the white fabric who was flying higher into the sky until it was cut in to million pieces, turning them in to little snowflakes falling from the sky.

" They're like, dancing flower pedals. " said Apple jack looking at the amazing show Fluttershy put up for them.

" Yeah ! " Big mac said looking speechless from the scene he just saw. Fluttershy looked at the smiling faces around her knowing they won't forget what just happened here in a long time.

At the harbor of town Lepion a big ship was stopping at the dock of the harbor. The sounds of cracking of the ship, the sea waves going wild and the rain that won't stop. Sailor pony's working hard to welcome the big ship, pulling on ropes and binding them tight on the dock.

" Withdraw, throw one more. " one of the sailor pony's said binding to rope to the dock. In the ships captains room the two mysterious stallions were discussing matters at hooves. The low voiced stallion looked out the window his back to the door when it opens.

" It's just as you thought, general, we were unable to rendezvous with the other ships. " the low voiced partner said walking in the room where a desk in the middle of the room was standing with papers on it. On the walls of the room were painting hanging and some shells holding books.

" We'll have many other chances, many indeed. " the General said with his back to his partner looking outside. The raindrops clatters on the window as the wind blow them away.

several hours later.

The capital city : Ginitari was in sight. It's beautiful the big strong walls around the capital keeping the citizens save. In the middle of the capital there was a big castle standing on a hill. The house were surrounding the castle from every direction, big or small is was lively in the capital. Gray clouds of rain was everywhere in the capital, but a strange pink colored cloud was above the castle of the capital raining on the castle roofs what looked like chocolate milk. In front of the castle gates there were royal pegasus guards guarding the big gates to the castle with big spears as weapons. The two royals guards looked at the raining horizon seeing a Pegasus with a hood on flying to them. The guard crossed there spears to stop the flying pegasus coming towards them.

" Halt ! state your title, name, and reason for entering the castle ! " The guard said with a tone voice looking suspicious at the Pegasus with the hood over the head not seeing the face of the pegasus.

" My name is Fluttershy, the sun-summoning princess, i've come here to marry your king. " Fluttershy said taking of her hood revealing her face in the rain, smiling at the two guard.

The two guards informed the advisor Fancy pants that a pegasus mare who claimed to be princess Fluttershy of sunlight kingdom was picked up by the guards. Fancy pants took matters in his own hooves and was commanding the guards to show him the pegasus mare, taking her stuff with him.

" Welcome, fourth sovereign daughter of the Sunlight kingdom, princess Fluttershy. " Fancy pants said levitating her saddle bag with his magic.

" If you had just shown this to us from the beginning, you could have avoided a brawl with the guards. " Fancy pants said to Fluttershy who was sitting on the floor and looking filthy from the brawl with the guards. there was dirt on her coat and her mane was a mess, knowing rarity would freak out at the sight but she wasn't her Fluttershy thought.
Fancy pants levitated a letter out her saddle bag showing it to her while saying it.

" I'm so sorry, i forgot that i had it with me, i was just nervous and all but that was noway to treat me like a suspicious pony out of nowhere, any pony would get angry over that even me. " Fluttershy said trying to defend herself like Rainbow dash teached her.

" No, they would not. " Fancy pants said with a straight face.

" Oh then i'm very sorry for what i did. " Fluttershy said apologizing for her rudeness torts the guards and to the adviser for a big mouth while hiding her face in her mane.

" Take lady Fluttershy to the audience chamber. " Fancy pants said to the guards standing behind Fluttershy.

" Yes, sir ! " the guards said taking Fluttershy to the audience chamber.

In the audience chamber a big room that was looking gloomy because of the gray sky from outside that you could see from the big windows, the king was sitting on his throne al dressed up a big crown on his head with a red cape around him with a middle sized staff in his claw." finally my bride is here, i can't wait anymore. I need to see her. ", the king thought grinning at the door as it opens. Fluttershy walked in the audience chamber keeping her head down as she walked in the room. The king was disappointed that she didn't showed her face at him, " she's probably already frightened at me for all the things she heard around the kingdom. " the king thought at himself looking sad for a moment but soon recoverd from it looking angry and annoying at the pegasus mare. Fluttershy bowed down for the king before her.

" Raise your head, princess Fluttershy. " Fancy pants said who was standing next the king on his throne. Fluttershy did what she was told and looked at the king. He was a creature of pure chaos he had a deer antler and goat horn growing atop the gray head of a pony sitting on a long giraffe-like neck, a goat beard growing below his sharp looking fangs. His green dragon leg, goat leg, red snake tail and brown furred body made Fluttershy shrink in size before the king.

" I expect you had a nice journey coming here to my kingdom, my name is king Discord also known as the lord of chaos and your future husband. " Discord said grinning at the sight of seeing the little pegasus shrinking herself into a little ball.

When They Meet

Discord sat on his throne looking down at the little pegasus bowing before him. She was quite beautiful but was covered in dirt. Discord rose from his throne and walked to the little pegasus and bowed before her, looking closely at her, making Fluttershy more nervous then she already was.

" I asked them to send the most beautiful one, i think they’re making fun of me " Discord says to his adviser looking disappointing at Fluttershy.

" You think so, too, majesty ? " Fancy Pants said to Discord looking at Fluttershy. Discord was standing straight again grinning at Fluttershy.

" Well, never mind, princess Fluttershy, there’s a reason i called you here " Discord smiled at Fluttershy who was looking confused at the king before her.

" I hear your royal family has the power to control the weather, you’re especially proficient at making the sun shine " Discord said looking at the window. Outside it rained hard, the gray clouds were covering the sky and sun.

" As it’s name suggests, this is a kingdom of meany rain weather, i’ve grown rather weary of the rain, make the sun shine, princess, i wise to see it " Discord said looking deep in Fluttershy’s eyes waiting for her answer.

” Those red eyes, he controls the earth, and now he wants the skies, is that what this is ? " Fluttershy looked straight at the monster before her, he was three feet taller then her so she flew up to his eye level and said in his face.

" just because your big and scary doesn’t mean i will do what ever you say " weary of the rain ? " is that a reason to throw a person’s life into disorder ?” looking angry at the big king before her. Discord was amazed by the little pegasus mare who was so scared to look at him a moment ago but now she’s was like a whole different pony.

" GUARDS " Fancy Pants yelled seeing the little pegasus that was up in the kings face.

" Sir " the guard near by said running thoughts the princess.

" Hey, let me go " Fluttershy said struggling in the holds of the guards

" Princess, please, stop " The guards said trying to hold the princess down. Discord looked at the pegasus mare in disbelief she was an interesting mare for sure.

" Your majesty, are you all right ? " Fancy Pants said to the king.

" Yeah " that was all that Discord could say at the moment.

" Take this upstart away " Fancy Pants said to the guards who were holding Fluttershy back.

" Yes, sire " and were dragging her away.

" Let me go! let me go i say! " Fluttershy said struggling in the hold of the two guards. Discord and Fancy Pants were about to leave the aduians room.

" How savage, Such a princess should be sent back to her home country immediately " Fancy Pants said, snapping Discord out of his thoughts.

" Wait, It takes real nerve to raise a hoove against me, but i like it " Discord said lifting Fluttershy’s chin up with his claw, looking straight in his eyes. The next thing she know, she was in a dungeon locked up behind bars. Discord and Fancy Pants were laughing at her for she had no clue what was going on.

" It suits you so well, being behind bars " Discord said grinning at the sight of the princess.

" Is this how you treat a guest of the state ? " Fluttershy said trying to get out of the prison she was in.

" Oh, and don’t feed her " Discord said like it was nothing. He was actually enjoying the show he set up for the little pegasus.

" What? " Fluttershy said knowing she would die without food. Discord walked closely to the bars with a evil look on his face, seeing that look, Fluttershy backed away from the bars, scared for what would happen.

" No one’s dares oppose me since i conquered the world, it’s gotten boring, i like you to entertain me, starve to death here or become my plaything, it’s your decision " Discord said grinning at the little pegasus trembling in fear before him.

In the meeting room from the castle, there were three chairs in the middle of the room with a big round table in front of the chairs.

In those chairs were three older ponies sitting, one of the older stallion’s is a gray-haired unicorn pony with bushy eyebrows and a long mustache. He keeps his mane and tail drawn back and tied in ponytails. He is wearing a dark red coat, a gray cravat, and an undersized pair of glasses and his cutie mark was a pocket watch. His name was Kibitz, one of the councils of Rain Dukedom.

The other one across kibitz was a old stallion with a long white beard, mane and coat. He wore a cloak with stars on it and a hat that match it. His cutie mark was a swirl of four five-pointed stars and his name was Star Swirl one of the councils of Rain Dukedom.

The old stallion in between Star Swirl and Kibitz was an elderly male earth pony, with a pale blue coat, white mane and tail, blue eyes and as cutie mark a golden feather. His name was Randolph one of the councils of Rain Dukedom.

Around the chairs were bookcases full with books. The room was shone by a few candle light’s across the room. At the back of the room was a big chair with different colors on it and different shapes of it. On that chair sat Discord looking at the members of the council who were discussing on something while he was drinking chocolate milk.

" Goodness, forcing her to choose between starvation and being your plaything ?” Kibitz said surprised by the outcome from this.

" If the princess were to starve to death... it would cause quite a ruckuss " Star swirl said thinking things through.

" Is that your intension ? " Randolph said thinking that was the king’s intensions. Discord was grinning at the elders, knowing that it will be different from what they say.

" Don’t worry, it won’t cause any diplomatic issues " Discord said confident about his plans because before that happens Fluttershy will give in and become his plaything.

" You won’t be needed, elders " Discord said getting bored already by those elderly pony’s.

" Does that mean..... " Star Swirl said already knowing what he meant by that.

" ....... She’ll become a plaything ? " Randolph finished for Star Swirl. Randolph was grinning at the idea of the princess becoming a plaything.

" That’s wonderful " Kibitz said over joyed for the king. Discord was in his own little world by now, not paying attention at the elders.

" Fluttershy princess of Sunlight kingdom, eh ? She should be a serviceable pastime for me” thinking about that time in the audience room when Fluttershy flew up to him with fire in her eyes and not being afraid of him, when she came in she was shaking of fear for him but just in an instant she chanced like a whole different pony altogether. Discord was so amazed by it, she was so chaotic in so meany ways just like him. " i want to see that fire in her eyes again” Discord thought looking forward to play with her again.

" Then we must think of how to play with her " Randolph said thinking about all the possibility’s. With this Discord was snapped out of his thought.

" I’m sorry elders but i said " you weren’t be needed " Discord said getting serious " She’s all mine for the take, don’t you dare to take what is mine” he said threatening the elders.

" Well then, i will be going, au revoir " Discord said teleporting away to his bedroom. " Why did i say that ? i shouldn’t have stop them, were’s the fun in that discord ? " he said laying on his bed, feeling pain in his chest from saying that.

" Then way do i feel so angry when Randolph said such thing ? " Discord was getting more and more confused by the minute, so much that he couldn’t sleep.

" This is ridiculous, I can’t have something like this distract me " Discord rose from his bed and started to paced around the room.

" Will just have to distract myself from everything " he said thinking of a idea to distract himself when a idea came to mind. " I know I will just work on those diplomatic papers that Fancy pants delivered for me " Discord said knowing that paper work always get his brain burnt from al the work.

" That will definitely stop those irritating thoughts " Discord said before he teleported himself to his office.

Back at the dungeon Fluttershy was curled op into a small ball of herself, protecting herself from the cold wind that blew in from a small opening with bars in it at the top of her wall across the iron bars. she lay on the cold, hard, stone floor that wasn’t very comfortable to sleep on, she tried to sleep but the crumbling from her belly didn’t make it easier to sleep.

" I can’t sleep at all, there’s got to be a way out of here " Fluttershy said looking around to cell that maybe could help her to get out while thinking.

" How can he be so cruel ? locking me up just because i didn’t use my power for him " looking back at it, she saw those red eyes of him. ” But those eyes.... they weren’t like a monster’s eyes at all, they looked sad and beautiful at the same time " thinking about it made Fluttershy blush. She shook her head trying to find a way out, she looked at the small opening in the wall before her.

" Maybe I could use my powers, if i concentrate hard enough i could break the bars on that small opening " she looked at the opening, hoping she could fit in it. She was sitting on the cold stone floor in front of the opening, concentrating hard on the wind from outside. She whispered words to the wind trying to contact with the wind.

” I’m so hungry it’s hard to concentrate... but i’m almost there “ Fluttershy thought trying hard to concentrate on the wind. Outside the wind was blowing harder and harder until it went straight to the bars were Fluttershy was in, breaking the bars of the opening into little peaces.

" Yay, I did it " Fluttershy cheered almost forgetting there were still guards around the place. She stopped cheering and flew out of the cell through the opening, ready to back to Sunlight kingdom until she remembered what her father told her.

” If one of you don’t marry the king of Rain dukedom, the war with the changing will continue and innocent pony’s will die " Knowing this Fluttershy couldn’t return to her home county until she married the king. Fluttershy looked at the castle behind her, she can’t give up on the king just yet, she needs to give him another chance or her kingdom will never be save.

Back in Discord’s office. Discord is working hard on the diplomatic papers that Fancy pants brought.

" The lines are all good " Discord said looking over at the documents. " But reduce the military budget by another 3 % " he said to Fancy pants. " Put the extra into flood control measure " finishing the document and giving it to Fancy Pants.

" You looked through all of the budget proposals in just one night, impressive as ever, sir " Fancy Pants said taking the documents. " But i do wish you would take better care of your health " looking at the bowl of paper and a glass of chocolate milk that was standing at the corner of the table. " You really must eat normal meals "

" But were's the fun in that ? " discord said looking at another paper work but still grinning. Fancy Pants sighed at the joke Discord made.

" Good night, then " leaving discord's office with the finished paper works, leaving Discord alone to work. After Fancy Pants shut the door behind him Discord trow the papers at the table.

" Budgets are just a puzzle " Discord said sitting back at the chair. " They don't do anything to kill time, i'm so bored "
Suddenly feeling a chilly wind passing him and the sound of a window door going open. The voice of a mare that is all to familiar to Discord.

" In that case..." The mare said on the window railing " Why don't I make things more interesting for you ? Majesty " Fluttershy said jumping on Discord, knocking him down with his back on the table with Fluttershy above him.

In the hallway Fancy pants stopped walking when he heard a strange sound coming from the kings office but thought is was nothing so he continued walking.

With surprised eyes he looked at the mare on top of him, more amazed then he already was about her. How can such little mare have so much strength In her to knock me over? the lord of chaos himself Discord thought as he looked in her teal cyan blue eyes. He tried to snap out of his thoughts when Fluttershy sat straight with a little pink color on her cheeks, embarrassing from the situation. She didn't really think this through of what would happen next.

" That's a funny joke " Discord said in a sarcastic tone " But i'm not into women being on top " making Fluttershy blush more then she already was.

" That isn't what I......." upon hearing a big rumbling noise from Fluttershy's belly. She quickly fell to the ground exhausted from all it flying around and using her powers without food in her stomach.

" What were you saying " Discord said eating a cucumber sandwich he just made appear with his magic.

" You are the worst " to hungry too do anything.

" Haven't you had enough " waving the cucumber sandwich in front of Fluttershy's face. " Why not call the sun for me already ? " with that Fluttershy got serious.

" Excuse me ! " she stud up and looked at him. " Sun-summoning is not a parlor trick, it requires preparation, effort and time! it's a sacred ritual "

" Well, if there are things you need, i can always snap my fingers and prepare them right away "

With a sign Fluttershy said " It's not about " things" what you need are " Feelings " and " experiences " confusing Discord with explanation.

" Feelings and experiences ? " Fluttershy then explained what she meant by that.

" The feeling of the pony seeking the sun must be in concert with those of the pony making it then, you need to let me experience the beauty of the world that surrounds me " Discord now understands what she meant but that was not everything. " If you want me to work my magic you need to show me the beauty of this world, you, personally " She said with that fire in her eyes again, making Discord mesmerized about her again. Without knowing his hand moved on his own and gave her the cucumber sandwiches.

" Your giving me that ? " Fluttershy said surprised by the kindness he showed.

" Yes, your hungry right ? " giving it to her.

" Thank you, that's very kind of you " Fluttershy said eating the sandwiches. Discord felt a warm feeling inside of him when he heard that she would want to know him better, spending time with a beautiful mare was like a dream come true, but that soon ended when Fancy Pants came in with guards behind him.

" Majesty, Princess Fluttershy has..... " Fancy Pants said looking at Discord how pointed at Fluttershy eating the cucumber sandwich.

" What about her " like nothing was wrong with the situation at hoof.

" Not escaped " Fancy Pants finished. A little weird out at the sight of everything and confused that princess Fluttershy didn't run away.

Fluttershy was in a dark room with stone pillars surrounding the walls, in the middle of the room there was a little creature sitting on one of the fallen pillars. The little creature was crying, coverd in dirt and brushes. Fluttershy walked slowly towards the crying creature and asked.

" What's wrong little one ? did you hurt your self ? " she tried to look at the face of the little creature but it was to dark to see it's face clearly.

" Everypony is scared of me, they think i'm a monster " the little one said.

" That's not true, no one is a monster, at least i don't think your a monster " sitting beside the little one.

" You really don't think i'm a monster " he said stopping with crying.

" Of course I don't think your a monster, the one who said that are just big old meany's " She said smiling at the him. " didn't your friend help you when you were bullied ? "

" I don't have any friend, everypony things i'm dangerous because i can do stuff others can't "

" You know what I call that ? " the little creature looked at Fluttershy.

" What do you call that ? " he said wondering what she meant.

" I call that special, your special and those pony's who say those mean things are just jealous that they don't have what you have " she said hugging and cheering the little creature up. " And I can be your friend ? if you want to ? "

" Really ? you want to be my friend ? " the little one said in disbelief at Fluttershy.

" Of course, I would love to " giving the little one the biggest smile she had. " What's your name little one ? " asking him.

" My name is Discord " when he said that everything turn black and Fluttershy woke up straight out of bed. she looked around she was in a big room. The wall was a green color and a balcony with a beautiful view of the county but it was a little gloomy looking thanks to the rain and gray clouds. Fluttershy went to the window of the balcony and thought.

" A dream ? was that Discord in the past ? but why ? " Fluttershy was brought back to reality when the door of her room opened. Standing in the door opening were three little fillies dressed as maids and they al said at the same time.

" Good morning, princess Fluttershy "

" Oh, Good morning to you too " not sure what to say.

The mare on the right was a unicorn mare with a white coat and a purple and pink mane and tail, her cutie mark is a shield with a star in it and in that star was a music note in it. She said " We'll be taking care of every little thing for you beginning today, your Highness, i'm Sweetie belle "

The mare next to her was a earth pony with brown coat and a red and pink mane and tail, her cutie mark is a pair of scissors with apple-shaped handles. She said " I'm Babs Seed "

The mare next to babs Seed was a pegasus with a orange coat and a purple mane and tail, her cutie mark is shield with a wing in it and in that wing was a lighting bolt in it. She said " I'm scootaloo "

Then they said at the same time " It's a pleasure to meet you " and bowed before her making Fluttershy nervous of all the attention.

" Now, Let's chance her highness's clothes " Sweetie belle said as she walked to the dressing room next to Fluttershy's room.

" We'll use the dress lord Discord picked himself " babs Seeds said as she walked behind Sweetie belle looking for the dress with Scootaloo behind her following her.

" Oh, it's wonderful " Scootaloo said as Babs Showed her and Fluttershy the dress.

" Oh my, it's........ah....nice dress " Fluttershy said not so sure what to say about the dress. The dress was pink with meany layers of fabric on it, there was also a big pink ribbon on the middle of the dress and the sleeves of the dress was so long that the pony wearing it would trip over it at anytime.

In the dining room of the castle discord and his chef was waiting for Fluttershy to come eat breakfast but it felt like ages waiting for her. The dining table was filled with al kinds of food like pastries, salads, cakes, soup, fruit and more, as discord looked at it he said something to his chef.

" Rather extravagant for breakfast, isn't it Pinkie pie " Discord said to his chef who was a pink coated earth pony with pink puffy mane and tail with a cutie mark with three balloons on it.

" Sorry, I kind of overdid it, I was just very excited about the princess " Pinkie pie said excited to meet a new pony.

" Jeez, no pony can eat this much food unless you give it to a group full of hungry pony's " Discord said getting bored from waiting, but as he said that Fluttershy came in the room.

" I'm sorry i'm late " she said walking forward to the dining table " I had a little problem with my dress " almost tripped on the way over here thanks to the long sleeves. Discord was speechless by the sight of the mare in her beautiful dress, she was like a star in the night sky giving light to the darkness. he was soon brought back when Fluttershy said.

" Not to be rude you majesty but you didn't understand what I was saying at all, did you ? " Fluttershy said looked at him.

" Stop whining, I worked really hard at being impressed by it all " not caring what she just said.

" Wrong " Getting angry at him.

" What ? " Discord said making a roll appear and reading it " What did I get wrong " pretending to care.

" How dense are you ? I was talking about......." she said until something got her eyes, it was the castle garden and the flowers in it. Fluttershy walked into the garden not caring that it rained outside, she laid on the grass not caring that it got dirty and looked at the flowers in wonder.

" It's a Cape of Sharon " Fluttershy looked at the flower. The flower had purple pedals and dark pedals inside of the flower. " What an unusual color " Discord walked towards Fluttershy while making a umbrella appear to prevent from getting wet.

" Is it ? " why it is so special it's just an flower Discord thought.

" Yeah " Fluttershy turn her head to face discord with a smile on her face for the first time " This is the only place it blooms in this color, this is the kind of thing you should be showing me " making discord's heat melt from al the cuteness that came from Fluttershy but that soon ended as discord said something that he wished he never said.

" Flower are just flowers, What's so great about them ? " Discord said with out thinking but is was kind of true.

" Majesty, Highness, please you will get a cold, come to breakfast " Pinkie pie said not wanting to get the good food she made going to waist.

" Got it " Discord said turning around and went inside. " C'mon, let's go " he waited for her. Fluttershy looked shocked at him as if he made a bad joke in front of her.

" You own the world, but you never looked at any of it " she looked away from him and walked past him saying " What a waist " Shocking Discord with those words.

Late at a rainy night Discord was working hard on the papers that Fancy pants brought to him in the office, that was what he was supposed to, but he didn't feel like working father what happened at breakfast.

" I've brought the letters addressed to you, majesty " Fancy pants said putting the letters on the table. Discord sat in his chair leaning back with a book on his face.

" Thanks " he said not caring about those letters.

" There is also something I would like to say to you " Fancy pants said with a serious tone in his voice. " I've received word that our enemy fractions have been increased in activity lately, we're taking the greatest caution, but just to be safe you should also be on your utmost guard " hearing snoring coming from Discord made Fancy pants a little annoyed the the king. " Excuse me, are you listening to me ? " Discord took off the book from his face and said.

" Hey, am I a waist ? " Completely chancing the subject at hoof.

" What ? to what do you refer ? " Fancy pants said taken back by the question. Discord rose from his chair and walked to the window behind him looking at the view of the bell tower in the rain across the castle. While he was looking at the bell tower he saw a little pony in the rain on the tower and he know who that pony was.

On the bell tower Fluttershy was looking at the view, She wanted to go outside not caring if it was raining she just wanted to clear her head about what happened at breakfast.

" It's beautiful " looking at the view. " This country's like this everywhere, I guess.... " looking back at what she said " What a waist " " why did I say that ? I could have just let it go "

Looking back what Discord said to her " Flowers are just flowers "

" Saying words like that with non-monsterlike eyes......Why does that make me so sad ? " Looking at the gray clouds letting the raindrops fall on her face. " Maybe I should go back to my home county " Fluttershy said not noticing someone was standing behind her.

" You're an idiot " The figure said scaring Fluttershy. When Fluttershy looked at the figure she saw Discord standing there in a black raincoat looking at her.

" I refuse to accept that you're going back to your home county " Discord said a little to fast and in a worried way looking at her.

" Wh-what are you doing here, at this time of night ? " Confused seeing him here.

" And I could ask you what you're doing here " Discord said walking toward her to look at the view as well.

" I-I came to look at the stars " Fluttershy said knowing you couldn't see the stars with al the clouds covering the sky.

" You're really bad at lying, you know that ? " Discord said laughing at Fluttershy. " You can't even see the stars here, there are to meany clouds in the sty to see them " making Fluttershy blush for being so stupid.

" Are you gonna say that again ? Stars are just stars " thinking he would say that again.

" Don't pick a fight " Discord said a little annoyed that she was still lingering on that.

" It's true that....." Looking at the sky above seeing little dots of light though the gray clouds. " I think they shone a little brighter back then " Fluttershy was thinking back at the dream she had today.

" Back then ? you " she thought, looking at him the rain falling down on him.

" Oh " Discord said remembering something.

" Hmm ? " Snapping her out of her thoughts.

" Make the caster experience the beauty of the world " You said that's the condition to summon the Sun " Discord said looking at Fluttershy. " Why is that necessary ? " Asking her. Fluttershy looked at the castle in front of them and said.

" I need to arrange my song " answering his question.

" arrange a song ? "

" The caster takes inspiration from the country's climate, land, and scenery, makes adjustments to the basic melody, and adds in the rhythm and then " She closed her eyes and said. " Achoo " She sneezed from the cold air and rain. Discord saw what happened and couldn't help but grin at the sight of it, he took off his raincoat and putted on her for warmth, surprising Fluttershy again with the kindness he showed her but as soon as she wanting to thank him he turned away and said.

" There's a garden on the roof of the north tower "

" What ? "

" It's what you need, right ? go on " Discord said looking over his shoulder acting cool. Making Fluttershy smile and played along with his silly game.

" Don't be so lazy " she said flying up to his hight " Come on " Grabbing his arm and pulling on it, dragging him along with her as they were leaving the tower " With me "

" Wait " Discord said blushing at the situation he got him in to, and that Fluttershy was actually touching him and smiling at him. This was to much for him, he had to do something before it's to late.

" It's to late tonight, Lets do it tomorrow " He said in a to chance Fluttershy's mind.

" Huh, tomorrow ? do you really think so ? " Fluttershy said with disappointing eyes looking at him, making Discord hate himself for it. " Well, it is pretty late, but do you promise that we will visit tomorrow " looking at him.

" My dear, I promise that I will escort you myself " Discord said being so happy for the first time in his life.

The next day Fluttershy and Discord were walking in the garden on the roof of the north tower. Fluttershy was flying though the garden the rain in a light blue raincoat with Discord right behind her walking on his own pace, feeling happy seeing her happy. Fluttershy looked at every flower she saw and caress for every animal she saw.

" You must think of me as pretty simple "

When Fluttershy saw a apple tree she took one and gave one at Discord to eat but he wasn't really a fruit type, he looked at the apple in disgust and wanting it to trow away but when he looked beside him Fluttershy was encourage him eat it, so he took a bite out of it the second it hit his tongue he wanted to spit it out but he couldn't do that for Fluttershy he thought and swallowed it as fast as he could.

" Getting so happy over something like this "

" I will get her for this " Discord thought his revenge for letting him eat fruit. Fluttershy was standing in front of a water pond looking at the little fish swimming in the water, Discord thought that this was the perfect moment to take his revenge so Discord pushed Fluttershy in to the pond making her drenched in water. Discord couldn't help but laugh at her. Fluttershy was surprised by the moment but soon thought about a little revenge plan of her own, she pointed her hoof at him asking for his help to get out of the water, Discord know the joke was over and could at least help her get out of the water so he extended his paw to grab on, but as soon Fluttershy had his paw she pulled on it so that Discord also fell in, laughing at Discord was like bells ringing to Discord and couldn't help but laugh with her.

" But I don't think there's anything wrong with that, either, but "

After that They went sitting in a gazebo to take a break from the tour and to dry off.

" Jeez, I'm totally soaked " Fluttershy said completely wet by the water

" Don't complain, you had fun, right ? " Discord said trying to dry him off with a sheep.

" I suppose so " thinking about all the fun they had till now.

" It has been a while since I last came here " Discord said thinking about the past. Not noticing Fluttershy looking concerned at him.

" Why ? Why does he have such cold, dry eyes ? " Fluttershy thought as she looked at him feeling sad for him.

" Majesty, Your drink " Fancy pants brought him a chocolate milk on a tray.

" Thanks " taking the chocolate milk from the tray. Discord wasn't aware of the cloaked pony behind them in the bushes, aiming a crossbow at Discord, when Fluttershy saw something shiny in the bushes and know that was about to happen. The cloaked pony shot the arrow aiming for Discord.

" Look out " Fluttershy pushed Discord aside making the arrow hit her shoulder, screaming in pain and fell to the ground. Discord dropped his drink splashing everything a crossed the floor like blood. He didn't know what was happening, one moment he was at piece and the other was that the mare in front of him was shot down before him.

After taking care to bring Fluttershy to her room, Discord went with Fancy pant to his office to disuse matters further.

" Princess Fluttershy's wound won't be fatal, but it brought on a terrible fever " Fancy pants said to Discord who had his back to him looking out the window. " She's taking medicine and resting right now, the perpetrator escaped, we believe one of the enemy factions to be behind it, but we have no proof "

" Well, we have a rough idea " Discord said trying to keep calm.

" Majesty...... "

" Don't be sad Fancy " knowing he would be sad at times like this. " Thanks to this, I remember for the first time in a long time......" Turning his head to Fancy pants showing a terrified, angry and mad look on his face. " This is how the world should be, right ? this world just exists to hurt pony's and to be conquered " Turning his head back to the window. " To survive, you mow down your enemy's and take what you want, it's nothing like her..... like Fluttershy's world " Smiling wicked in himself and said. " It's fun "

The next morning Fluttershy was feeling great in health so she said but her maids didn't't believe it.

" I told you, I'm fine, really " Fluttershy said getting out of bed.

" No, no, no, no " sweetie belle said stopping Fluttershy from getting out of bed.

" The court physician has not yet given his permission " Babs Seed said in front of the door so that Fluttershy couldn't go.

" You must take better care of yourself " Scootaloo said standing beside Sweetie Belle. With a sign flutter shy gave up to tired to argue anymore then there is.

" Yeah, yeah, I hear you " Smiling at the filly's helping her " By the way, do you know where Discord is " Asking the three little filly's. Thinking " I took a hit for him, He's not even going to look in on me ? how cruel can he be ? " Fluttershy looked at the three maids who began to look worried at each other, giving Fluttershy a worried expression as well.

" Wait..... did something happen ? "

" Yes, due to the assassination attempt, martial law was declared in the capital. His majesty seems to think he can use this to crush the last traces of rebellion " Sweetie belle said.

In the audience room Discord found the low voiced stallion and punished him and his partner who were talking to Snips and Snails in the bar the other night.

" His majesty himself ran the interrogations. A number of retainers have already been punished " Scootaloo said feeling bad for them.

" Many have even been stripped of rank and land and driven into exile " Babs Seed said, not believing what she heard from them.

" Wait, That will just sow more resentme....." Fluttershy walked thoughts them but couldn't even finish her line as she fell along the way down to the ground, her fever was still to high for her.

" Highness " they all said helping her. Fluttershy was on the ground with bandage on her right shoulder.

" I can't let him do it " looking at the ground. " I need to tell him to stop " She said looking at the three with fire in her eyes until somepony opened the door from her room.

" You will not, Highness " Fancy pants said coming into the room.

" Fancy pants " Surprised to see him.

" I am to return you to the Sunlight kingdom at once " Shocking Fluttershy more then she already was. " On his majesty's order " Fluttershy couldn't believe what was happening, it was like chaos allover the place.

In a cell room, the low voiced stallion was sitting at a table with fifth stallions wearing armor surrounding him. The low voice stallion smacked his hoof hard on the table in frustration.

" Me ? exiled from the country ? That monster, he's mocking me.... "

" Please calm down, general " His partner said.

" But.... " the general said.

" We feel the same way you do " Everyone saluted the general. " We have already made the preparations, it's only a matter of time before he falls from the rain king throne "

In a carriage that was going to the harbor town Lepion, in it was Fluttershy and Fancy pants.

" You seem rather put-out " Fancy pants said looking at her, who was sitting a crossed her in the carriage.

" Of course I am " Fluttershy said looking outside the window of the carriage. " He basically just divorced me "

" But you didn't want to come here in the first place, did you ? " Knowing what Fancy Pants just said was true but now it felt different to her.

" Look, I'm just mad at how unfeeling he's acting, after all that, he just drives me out without even looking me in the eye, if i'd know pony's were trying to kill him, I could have helped " Hoping he would do that but that wasn't the case.

" Allow me to apologize in my lord's stead " Bowing before her.

" Wh-where did that come from ? I don't know how to reply to that " Feeling bad for what she said.

" He does not know how to seek help from others, he's been alone his whole life, because of that, he lived a lonely life in the palace, he lived in secret with only himself to rely upon, eventually, his majesty ascended the throne, his performance was brilliant, it is because of that that he was able to take over the world, but i was certain it was merely a distraction "

" A distraction ? "

" The loneliness in his heart "

" Then.... "

" Yes, everything that he did was to fill the void in his heart " Looking Fluttershy in the eye. " In addition, there is one thing I wish for you to understand, sending you home is his way of showing consideration for you " Making Fluttershy surprised at this. " His majesty wished to protect you " suddenly the carriage stopped for some reason.

" What happened ? " fancy pants said getting out the carriage. The drive of the carriage was on top of the carriage pointing his hoof at the big ice block behind them.

" It's awful, look at that " Fluttershy stepped out of the carriage to look what that pony was pointing at, The big ice block was in the direction of the castle, Fluttershy could only hope it didn't was what she was thinking, so she took off flying in the direction of the big ice block.

" Princess Fluttershy " Fancy pants said trying to stop her but she was already gone. " Turn the carriage around, hurry " He said to the driver.

The Castle was frozen in ice, the pony's in it were trying to get out before they freeze to death, but the ice was to strong not even magic could get them out. The pony's outside the castle were trying to do everything in their power to save them but it didn't work. Under all that commotion one of the guard in the Dungeon was standing in the front of the cell room where the general and his partner was being held, he opened the door and stetted them free. The General walked out of the cell saying.

" Continue " With his partner behind him saying.

" Yes, Sir " Walking out of the dungeon.

Outside the castle the counsel members we watching the situation at hand.

" What a risky play " Kibitz said looking at the situation.

" Looks like he mean to bring all of his hidden enemies out into the light this way " Randolph said trying to figure out what was going on.

" Is this a way to bring them out ? " Kibitz said not realizing that that was his plan.

" And is there something he wishes to verify, as well ? " Star Swirl said thinking of a way to stop this madness. Fancy pants was just arriving at the castle looking at the horror that has been happened. He looked around seeing a guard running passed him, he quickly said to the guard.

" His majesty, Is his majesty safe ? " Stopping the guard and answered him.

" I don't know, till the third floor of the palace has been covered in ice, we can't break through it " The guard said leaving to get help from other, leaving Fancy pants shocked, he yelled at the castle screaming.

" MAJESTY !! " Running to the big ice block getting bigger and bigger trying to do everything in his power to break though the ice.

Inside the palace Discord was in his office surrounded by ice getting bigger and bigger by the moment.

" They've really done it this time, casting a ice spell on the castle is so immature, even for me " Snapping his fingers to teleport out of the castle, but all that did was teleporting to the roof of the castle that was covered with ice, no way of getting out. " This ice is preventing me from getting out, not even I can't do anything about it now " Discord thought as he tried his magic on the ice, it broke the ice a little but a soon it was broken it regenerate back to it's original state. Getting worried about the situation he looked below seeing everypony doing there best to break though the ice but that wasn't going very well either.

" What do I do ? Just a matter of time, huh ? " Looking at the ice the was getting bigger and bigger, when he heard the bells ring from the bell tower. Looking at the bell tower he swore he saw somepony on the roof of the bell tower, hearing a small singing voice coming from the bell tower. Everypony in front of the castle heard the singing to and stopped what they were doing and listened to the singing coming from the bell tower.

" Sun... come and appear before me "

On the bell tower Fluttershy was singing her heart out trying to summon the sun.

" Sundrops.... Shine here and drive out the ice "

Singing with full out to the sky in the rain.

" Tell him, that despite all of this....The world is still beautiful "

The sadness born today
Soars high into the sky
The sky opens it’s eyes and calls the wind
Making my heart tremble.

" Hey, do you hear something" Pinkie pie said looking at the bell tower.

Making a tornado from the wind behind her still singing her song.

" Is it a song ? " Sweetie belle said.

I want to protect you, I want to feel our destiny
The rear you shed, the hollow in your heart
I want to fill it with happiness

" That voice.... Princess Fluttershy ? " Fancy pants said

Making the gray clouds disappear from the sky with the strong wind. Spreading her wings out into the sky.

" My body.... the air is trembling " Scootaloo said looking at the sky above her.

It’s a tender light
May this song reach our side
No matter how far we are apart
Please believe in those words i gave you
Singing in the sunlight
The lightdrops are shinning beautifully
The moment when all the sadness is blown away
The world will come alive
Please come the tender light.

Making the sun appear before the pony's of the kingdom. Seeing the sun for the first time in there lives. Discord was amazed by the sun and seeing Fluttershy floating in the sky like a angel before the sun.

Even if one day this scenery withers away in the light
the overwhelming emotion will still
continue to shine into your eyes

The ice around the castle began to slowly melt by the suns warmth. Pony's were cheering and laughing at the sight of the miracle they witnessed.

I want to connect our hearts
I want to feel your pain
When you wake up, on the soaked grounds
The buds are definitely blooming

Flying higher and higher in to the sky. Fluttershy shone the Sun light at the whole kingdom with a intense of power making the ice melt completely.

It’s a tender light, listen closely
And melt into the tender air
Quietly falling down
I am always by you side
Singing in the light, I will sing
Send my feeling onto the sundrops
Across place and time
There is a shining love
Here comes the tender light

Fluttershy flew down to the bell tower again and let the sun disappear slowly in the gray clouds again.

No matter what our destiny is
Nothing can separate our tied hearts
No matter how sad you are
Smile and it will return to the sky

Making the sun disappear in the gray clouds the rain started again. Singing quietly again ending the song with the next's lines, leaving Discord speechless as he watch her sing.

Please come the tender light
May this song reach our side
come the tender light

Discord wasn't aware that he was crying tears and moved his claw and paw to cover his face not showing he was crying.

" Toch, That was to bright " Discord said trying to stop the crying, not noticing Fluttershy was watching him from the bell tower.

" That's his... " Shocked seeing him cry.

" What you need is feeling and experiences "

Author's Note

Discord can't use healing magic, just so you know.
I was thinking of making a original song that goes with the story, but i'm not really that good with english so I will look if it can work out.
the characters Sweetie belle, Scootaloo and Babs seed are just 5 or 4 years younger than Fluttershy. I just thought it would be better to make the characters a little bit older.
The song that was used here is from Takai Mamiko Tender rain
I changed a few things about it but it is still not my song.
Sorry if it's been a long time since I posted a new chapter but I was on vacation with my family so I couldn't really work on this chapter.
I'm back from vacation now so I can really work hard and good on the next chapter so stay toned everypony. :raritywink:

A New Surprise Everyday

After the ice block event, the castle staff members were trying to clean up the mess everything made, everything was drenched in water from the melted ice. Discord was standing outside the castle in the rain looking at everything.

" Jees, They really made a show of it.... And that is supposed to be my job "

" Majesty " Fancy pants said walking thoughts him. " I have brought her " Showing Fluttershy standing behind him.

" You drive me out, You bring me back " Fluttershy said a little tired from using her powers and a little tired of the king before her but she was happy that he wasn't hurt anywhere. " You just do whatever you want, don't you " Fluttershy said in a teasing way.

" If that's how you feel, why didn't you just go ? " Wanting to know way she stayed after he sent her away like that.

" Because I was worried about you and you still haven't shown me the beauty of this world personally " Trying not to show him that she blushed.

Discord was surprised " she was actually worried about me ? " but soon snapped out of it and said. " But you still made the sun appear, didn't you ? " Fluttershy flinched at this knowing what he meant by that. " a big light ball dropping Light from the sky, that was the sun ? " Discord said looking at the gray clouds in the sky above him raining down on him.

" So ? how did you like your sun shine ? " Fluttershy said wanting to know how he liked it.

" It wasn't pleasing at all " Not what Fluttershy had expected from him at all. " My fur and mane were slightly burnt, it was to bright, and light is just light anyway " Making Fluttershy regret saving him in the first place.

" However...." Making Discord blush a bit. " I enjoyed your singing voice " Making Fluttershy blush and happy at the same time.

" You'r happy, aren't you ? " Discord said teasing her a bit. " Did you want to show me the sun that badly ? "

" What kind of thing is that to say, is that all you had to say to me ? " Fluttershy said tying not to sound irritated. " I don't have time to play along with this " Turning away from Discord and Fancy pants " Bye " To tired from all that happened today. Discord smiled wicked at Fluttershy as she leaved getting a idea in his head.

" That's not it " Stopping Fluttershy in her tracks. " I'm saying the more you act like that, the less I want to let you go " Turning around to face Discord, when all of the sudden her chin was lifted up by a claw and the soft feeling against her lips. With wide eyes Fluttershy saw that Discord kissed her and that Fancy pants was blushing crazy at the sight of it. Ending the kiss still lifting Fluttershy's chin up with his claw Discord said.

" You're going to make my life more amusing from now on, Fluttershy " Not sure what to say Fluttershy just screamed.

" WHAT ? "

A week has passed since the incident and the kiss between Fluttershy and Discord. Fluttershy was still in Rain dukedom. Waking up from her sleep in her bed room. " I'm still not used to it, I guess " rising from her bed and looking at her window. The gray clouds were covering the sky and the rain was tapping on her window. " This intense morning rain and this soft bed... " Fluttershy looked beside her as she felt something move, as she looked there was a sleeping draconequus next to her in bed, not sure what to do she screamed at the sight of it waking Discord in the process.

" Way are you screaming about ? " The sleepy king said rising for the bed, seeing Fluttershy holding a pillow in her right hoof and in her left hoof she was holding the bed sheets close to her body and said angry looking.

" You ! How dare you climb into my bed with asking again ? " believe it or not this wasn't the first time Discord sneaked into Fluttershy's bed or room. " And..... Naked " Fluttershy blushed but basically no pony was wearing cloth only for special occasions but still looking at him like that was just to much for Fluttershy.

" I told you, my room is soaking wet and damaged by the ice " Discord said grinning at the situation at hoof. " Beside, it's standard for married couples to sleep in the same bed, right ? " Smiling from seeing Fluttershy getting redder. Discord looked at Fluttershy strangely, not knowing sure what he was looking at she said.

" Wh-what " Getting more nervous as discord came closer to her, trying to get some distance between them she backed up a little.

" This is a serious situation " He said with a serious look on his face and being so close to her. " There's a sense of danger approaching from the neighboring country " Making Fluttershy scared. " You.... have you gained weight ? " Fluttershy was so mad at him that she hitted him hard on the head for that lame joke.

In the dining room Discord and Fluttershy were having breakfast, Fluttershy was sitting at the dining table a crossed Discord who was sitting at the other end of the dining table. Discord had a bump on his head where Fluttershy bitted him earlier in the day.

" Listen, you....typically, striking me with a hoof would warrant the death penalty " Looking annoying at Fluttershy who was drinking her tea in peace. " The death penalty, hear me " Pinkie pie was standing next to Fluttershy whispering.

" Princess Fluttershy, I prepared this meal full of ingredients, effective to reducing weight " Knowing how she might feel and trying to help her.

" I told you, pinkie pie, I didn't gain weight " Trying to convince her at she hadn't gain weight. Fluttershy looked at Discord who was drinking chocolate milk. " I still can't tell what this guy is thinking " Fluttershy thought. Discord stopped drinking as he remembered something to tell Fluttershy.

" Oh right, Fluttershy " Trying to get her attention. " In the near future, I want to hold a coming out party for you "

" A party ? " Not sure what is going on.

" It's purpose would be to formally introduce you, the rain king's wife, to ambassadors from our allied countries " Fancy pants said trying to explain everything.

" In addition, I was hoping you could entertain them with that Sun-Summoning of yours " Smiling at himself, knowing she would agree to it.

" I refuse "

" Really ? you refuse ? " Still smiling not noticing she refused. " Huh ? " Just now noticing she refused.

" I said, " I refuse " She said drinking her tea.

" Who do you think you're talking to ? " Discord said trying to intimidate her.

" Even if you execute me, I won't give ground on this " Being firm with him. " The dignity of a princess of the Sunlight kingdom is at stake " Crossing her hooves over each other. " This is a sacred ritual you're talking about. "

" But before, you.... "

" Yeah, I did make the sun appear, but that was an emergency, but Sun-Summoning, usually, is something the ruler does for the pony's. To make it a sideshow at a party.....it's absurd "

" I see, I see, I understand completely " Discord said in a sarcastic tone and trying to smile. Smacking his claw and paw on the table saying with a angry look on his face. " " You wimpy little pegasus " Making Fluttershy mad saying such a thing just because she refused to make the sun appear, she had enough of the king before her. Fluttershy rises from her chair and wanting to smack him on the head.

" Your highness, please, stop " Trying to hold back Fluttershy, but for a little mare like her she has some strength so Fancy Pants called out for the guards to hold down Fluttershy. " Guards !! "

" The one thing i do know for certain is that, this is one arrogant king right here " Fluttershy thought as she looked at him sticking his tongue out to her as she struggled in the guards grippes on her.

In the meeting room the three counsel members and Discord were talking about the ice event that happened not long ago.

" It's a serious thing that they've done " Star Swirl said sitting in a chair talking to the two members.

" But it was awfully reckless, wasn't it ? " Kibitz said

" You didn't give any additional punishment to them, Are you certain of this, majesty ? " Randolph said looking behind him the king was sitting on his misshaped chair, leaning his head on his paw in boredom.

" If I do that, I'll just sow more resentment and end up a target again "

" Those are princess Fluttershy's words, are they not ? " Kibitz said.

" She should be acclimating to life here by now, hasn't she ? " Randolph said.

" Who knows ? " Discord said, not really caring about that. " I think she's supposed to be getting some strict " first lady " training in being the Rain king's wife, but..... " Not wanting her to be so dull like the other mare's he seen.

" Oh, in preparation for the party, eh ?, how wonderful " Randolph said thinking that's a great plan.

In Fluttershy's bed room the lights were out and outside was dark thank's to the gray clouds and rain was tapping on her window. Fluttershy was exhausted all the study she had to do.

" Morning to night, study, study, study ! " Fluttershy said jumping on her bed ready for a good night rest. " How did I end up in this mess ? " Thinking of everything that happened since she came to this county. " The Rain king's wife..... " Thinking of the pony's who called her that since she been here.

" I'm still not used to being called that " Fluttershy turned to face the wall beside her seeing beautiful flowers standing in a vase next to her nightstand beside her bed. " Are those flowers of this county ? " Not knowing what kind of flowers they are. " They smell wonderful " taking in their sent and thinking about what he said about flowers. " The Rain king.... " I wasn't interested in things like that " Something we can communicate about " Fluttershy thought drifting slowly in to sleep. " Something deep inside his heart, something precious that he'll only let me touch...." Not hearing or seeing a flash of light appearing beside her bed, looking down on Fluttershy.

The next morning Fluttershy was looking for the king, asking pony staff members if they seen him.

" His majesty ? he's already at work " Sweetie belle said caring laundry with her magic.

" No way, He starts this early ? "

" Yes, this is actually later than he started yesterday "

" I believe in the morning, It's the advisory council and in the afternoon there's a social gathering with authorities in various fields and then he's scheduled for audiences with the common folk and at night he checks over official documents" Scootaloo said knowing quite a bit what the king is doing.

" King Discord is so overworked, it's his only flaw " Babs Seed said getting back to work. Fluttershy know now who hard he was working everyday and wanted some advice from somepony so she went to see Fancy pants in the north tower garden. They were sitting under the gazebo to prevent from getting wet by the rain.

" That's the lord of chaos for you " Fluttershy said not knowing what to do with him. " A total workaholic. He's not like a Monster at all " Looking at the view from the tower.

" It is as you say " Fancy Pants said looking at the view too. " Yet, a pony he is, I would prefer that he take better care of himself, but....." Making Fluttershy curious. " The more I have to do, the less I'll be forced to remember unnecessary thing" is what he always says "

" Unnecessary Thing ? Does he mean...... " Fluttershy thought about the dream she had a while back.

" Well, well " A voice said Snapping Fluttershy out of her thoughts and turned around to see who was speaking to her. It was a group of unicorn stallions with dinner jackets on. All the stallion looking the same to Fluttershy but two were standing out the most, one was a white unicorn with blonde mane and his cutie mark was a eight pointed star, his name was Blueblood. The other stallion was a blue coated unicorn with a silver white mane and his cutie mark were three stars, they were standing in front of the group greeting Fluttershy and Fancy pants.

" Princess Fluttershy, I pray that you are well " The blue unicorn said. Fluttershy wasn't sure who that was but she soon got help from Fancy pants.

" Duke Blue moon is the minister of state " Fancy pants whispered into Fluttersh's ear, Now knowing who they were Fluttershy greeted them by nodding her head.

" This is the ocean kingdom's ambassador " Pointing to the stallion next to him. " He came here to attend your party "

" Oh, Thank you for coming " Fluttershy said a little nervous with all those stallions looking at her. " Um, I'm Discord's wife, and....." Not sure what to say.

" His majesty's playmate in playing house " Blueblood said. " Isn't that right ? " Looking down on Fluttershy with a mocking expression on his face. " I know all about you, They say that you came from some unknown, penniless backwater kingdom. A real hayseed princess " Making the other stallion laugh at Fluttershy.

" What's with these stallions ? " Fluttershy thought getting a little angry and sad at what they said about her kingdom and Discord.

" Plus, you have a sinister talent of some sort. Calling us all the way here just to present and humiliate someone like you.... " Making Fluttershy feel uncomfortable and angry . " That's his majesty for you. He goes so over the top in his entertainments " Fluttershy had it with this stallion, making fun of her husband like that.

" Excuse Me " She said getting really angry.

" At least she is useful as entertainment " Discord's voice said interrupting Fluttershy. The group of stallion looks behind them seeing Discord standing there with a angry look on his face. He heard everything up to insulting him including insulting Fluttershy and her country.

" M-majesty " Blue moon said surprised to see him and scared by the look on Discord face he was seeing.

" Better than pony's who can do nothing but spew the most predictable of flattery " Discord said trying to smile but was finding it hard to. " Take care how you use your words, your lordship " Looking at Blueblood. " That's my wife you're speaking to " Fluttershy was blushing when she heard him say that. Discord made the group of stallions leave escorted by Fancy pants, leaving Fluttershy and Discord alone in the gazebo.

" Thank you " Fluttershy said still blushing from what discord said.

" Don't get sentimental now " Discord said with a angry voice still looking at the group leaving the tower.

" You're in a bad mood " Fluttershy guessed by the way he talk's to her. " You're looking pale, too, did you know ? " Fluttershy flew up to Discord's face and looked at it if she wasn't mistaking.

" Yeah, I just haven't been sleeping, I pulled an all-nighter last night " Looking Fluttershy in the eyes.

" An all-nighter ? " Fluttershy said a little to loud.

" Keep your voice down " Feeling his head might explode from the noice. " Hey, take responsibility for all that commotion "Discord said snapping his fingers teleporting them somewhere. Not knowing sure what he meant by that but she didn't expected this. Discord and Fluttershy were laying on the grass in the middle of the wood behind the castle with a barrier around them to prevent to get wet by the rain.

" I see, responsibility, Huh ? " FLuttershy said finally catching up.

" Oh ? " Discord said not sure what she was talking about.

" No, i just thought you'd Ask for something more outlandish "

" If i did, would you do it ? " Making Fluttershy's face turn red.

" Of course not "

" There's a lot i want to do, but I don't have the time " closing his eyes. " This never happened before, of course, this is annoying in its own way "

" Before ? " Fluttershy asked.

" It's so gray I can't stand it " Discord said looking at the gray clouds above them. " the rain is so obnoxious " Making Fluttershy laugh.

" How can you say that ? you're the rain king "

" Hey, make the sun appear, okay ? " Discord said in a serious way.

" I told you, that's...... " releasing something as she looked at him. " You want to see it ? I thought you didn't like it "

" I don't really know, myself, but when I think about that sun, I feel my malice disappear, I'm at peace " Looking in Fluttershy's eyes. " Although when that happens, I remember things I don't want to remember, too " Fluttershy looked In Discord's eyes seeing sadness in them.

" So it is.... " Thinking about her dream again. " Listen, why not lighten your workload a little bit ? " Fluttershy said shaking those thoughts away. " Can't you leave the kingship to others a little more ? Doing things the way you do must be stressful, It's not natural, either " Fluttershy said.

" Fluttershy " Discord said with a angry voice, scaring Fluttershy a little. Discord began to sit straight having his back to Fluttershy " Who do you think I am ? Don't tell me how I should do things " Looking over his shoulders having scary eyes looking at Fluttershy. " It's none of your business " Standing up saying. " I'm leaving. You go back "

" Yeah. Thought so " Fluttershy thought flying up to his hight and grabbed his goat like face with her hooves and rubbed her hooves in them.

" How dare you. Not just once, but twice...... " Discord said removing her hooves by force and looked at her. Surprised by the look on her face, she looked like she was about to cry and it made Discord's heart break seeing her like that.

" I can't see it. What we can communicate about..." Feeling sad emotions filling her inside. " What lies in his heart.... " Doing what Discord told her, she went to the castle still feeling those sad emotions inside of her.

Fluttershy sat in front of her window humming the song she sang by the ice incident, watching as the raindrops ticked her window.

" My Sun-Summoning teacher was my grandma " Thinking back about her past. Fluttershy's grandma was a unicorn mare named Amore, she was a beautiful mare with a very pale vermillion coat and a raspberry mane with a snowflake as cutie mark.

" Listen to me, Fluttershy " Amore said from her throne in the audience room back in the Sunlight kingdom. Young Fluttershy was sitting in front of her grandma listening to what she had to say. " It is not merely the land that we enrich. The place to which you should truly send the sun is the depths, The very depths of someone's heart. The place known as sacred ground. "

" Sacred ground ? "

" The burdens that we carry, the pony's that cannot return.....we shut those things inside ourselves, in a sanctuary of the heart with is brittle and dries out easily "

" How do you know if the sunlight has reached it ? " Amore laughs at her little granddaughter.

" You'll know. You can tell it at a glance " Smiling at Fluttershy. Thinking about those memories it seems really a long time ago and now Fluttershy don't know it anymore.

" I don't know, Grandma " Looking down at her hooves thinking until she heard a little sound in front of her. The three little filly's stopped in there tracks as they looked at Fluttershy, smiling acquired at her.

" We're sorry to interrupt while you're relaxing " Sweetie belle said levitating a pile of towels in front of her.

" it's okay, don't worry about it " Fluttershy said until she noticed something. It was the same flowers that were standing besides her bed was now also standing on top of her desk. Fluttershy walked towards it and said. " You're the ones who put these flowers here, right ? " Smiling the flowers. " I just love things like this. Thank you " The three maids looked at each other thinking if they should tell her.

" N-no, ma'am " Babs seed said. " His majesty collects those himself, every day. " Surprising Fluttershy.

" What ? "

" Well.... he said it would be a balm to you, living in this unfamiliar country " Scootaloo said.

" He actually told us not to tell you, but..... " Sweetie belle said looking at Fluttershy who was still a little shocked. Fluttershy looked at the flowers standing on her desk.

" What kind of idiot is he ? "

Deep in the night Fluttershy went to Discord's bed chamber, when she was in Discord's room she went to the bed side were Discord was sleeping. Looking down on his sleeping face flutter shy thought.

" If you have the time to do something like that, you should take better care of yourself "

" An evening encounter ? How very bold " Fancy pants whispered in Fluttershy's ear scary the life out of her.

" Fancy ! No, no, no "Fluttershy said with blushing cheeks. " He didn't come to my room tonight, so...... " Before she could speak any further Fancy pants signaled her to be quite or Discord would wake up.

" He chose to demure, out of concern for how you acted this afternoon " Fancy pants showed Fluttershy a purple bottle. " Do you know what this is ? " Fluttershy looked closely at it and said.

" Medicine ? "

Fancy pants nodded and said. " It takes a toll on a monster's body. He's taken it regularly every night " Making Fluttershy worry about Discord not knowing he did such thing. " However, he stopped taking it recently. Do you know why ? " Fluttershy didn't know the answer to Fancy pants question so Fancy pants told her why. " Because he's capable of relaxing around you. Having somepony to protect by his side, it sets his majesty's mind at peace "

" Somepony to protect ? " Thinking back on the dream she had " I'm the real idiot here " Not relishing it sooner. " The memories he thought he'd seal away have begun to stir, With his heart, with the sanctuary of his heart " Looking at Discord's sleepy face. He's been trying the best he can, but he never forget how to sympathize with me, with other pony's. He's a strong creature. It's beautiful " Surprising Fancy pants with that word, Fluttershy turned around to face Fancy pants and said with a smile on her face. " Being protected all the time doesn't agree with me. I'm going to protect him, too. "

The next morning, the party to congratulate Fluttershy of becoming the rain king's wife. The party was held in the ball room of the castle, tables with delicious food prepared by pinkie pie and beautiful decorate flowers on every table and corner of the room, crystal chandeliers hanging from the ceiling, mares in beautiful dresses and stallions in tuxedos. In front of the ball room there was a stage with a staircase leading to it, In front of the staircase the the group stallions from yesterday were approaching Discord and Fancy pants. Discord was wearing a red Tuxedo and red pants. " My, it's truly magnificent " Blue Moon said wearing a brown tuxedo with a black necktie. " The ambassadors are all very pleased, as well "

" I can't apologize enough for my rudeness " Blueblood said bowing in front of Discord as a apology. " To her highness the other day "

" Don't let it bother you. I went too far, as well. Forget that and enjoy this day wholeheartedly "

" I would be most pleased "

" By the way, majesty " Blue moon said looking around to crowed. " We haven't seen the day's leading lady, Princess Fluttershy. If she fails to attend her own party, it would lead to a terrible scandal " Blueblood was grinning at the king.

" I know that " Discord said glaring at the two stallions. Discord turned around and walked away.

" Majesty " Blue moon said worried he might upset the king.

" For heaven's sake, what is she doing ? " Discord said in frustration.

" Do not worry. Princess Fluttershy is the princess that you chose, isn't she ? " Fancy pants said smiling at Discord. " Have bit more faith in her " Discord looked at Fancy pants feeling a kind wind pacing him and heard a soft voice singing.

The sadness born today
Soars high into the sky
The sky opens it’s eyes and calls the wind
Making my heart tremble

" What is That " Blueblood said hearing the singing voice.

" The windows aren't open, yet the wind is blowing ? " Blue moon said amazed by the wonder.

I want to protect you, i want to feel our destiny
The rear you shed, the hollow in your heart
I want to fill it with happiness

pony's all over the room were dead silent at the singing voice.

" My, how lovely " A mare in the crowed said. " What splendid entertainment. Did you arrange this, your majesty " Discord looked at the direction were the voice was coming from and said.

" No..... "

" Your lordship " Fancy pants said Bowing in front of the stair getting Blueblood's attention. " This is the " sinister talent " of which you spoke. " Walking on the stage wearing a beautiful red dress with a dark purple flower on the side of her dress, she was wearing black gloves on her hooves and her hair in a bun with the same dark purple flowers in her hair pinning the bun.

" Princess Fluttershy " Blue moon said not believing his eyes.

" Is that......her ? " Blueblood said amazed by Fluttershy's beauty.

" She really is beautiful " Sweetie belle said.

" This is our hard work paying off, right ? " Scootaloo said.

" No, she shines like that because of who she is " Babs seed said.

" Attention, everypony. " Fluttershy said standing on the stage with proud. " I cannot thank you enough for coming here to see me today. This is the symbol of the thanks I feel for you from the boron of my heart " Taking a deep breath Fluttershy started to sing.

It’s a tender light
May this song reach our side
No matter how far we are apart
Please believe in those words i gave you
Singing in the sunlight
The lightdrops are shinning beautifully
The moment when all the sadness is blown away
The world will come alive
Please come the tender light

The gray clouds disappeared and sun was shining though them but parts of the dark clouds stayed in the sky still rain coming from them. Discord was looking at the stage, Fluttershy was singing her song in front of him, looking so beautiful like a angel. All the pony's in the ball room were amazed by the wonders they were seeing before them.

" What is this ? " Blue moon said as he looked outside. All the pony's in the ball room were amazed by the wonders they were seeing before them.

Even if one day this scenery withers away in the light
the overwhelming emotion will still
continue to shine into your eyes

The sun was shining on the raindrops outside making the rain sparkle like millions shooting stars.

" It's like falling light " A stallion said looking at the light drops.

I want to connect our hearts
I want to feel your pain
When you wake up, on the soaked grounds
The buds are definitely blooming

Futtershy looked at the pony's below her seeing that everpony was staring at her including Discord with stunning eyes looking at her.

" What you really need to send it to is a pony's heart. The deepest part of it " Fluttershy thought while singing the song with al her might putting her feeling in it. Letting the gray clouds return and cover the sun up.

It’s a tender light, listen closely
And melt into the tender air
Quietly falling down
I am always by you side
Singing in the light, I will sing
Send my feeling onto the sundrops
Across place and time
There is a shining love
Here comes the tender light

Ending her song with bow, pony's began to cheer and stomp their hooves on the ground. Fluttershy walked down of the staircase seeing at the end of the staircase Blueblood bowing before her and said.

" How exquisite. I've never seen such a beautiful princess before in my life. Would you grant me the honor of a kiss upon your hoof ? " Blueblood said completely mesmerized by Fluttershy's singing just now. Not sure what to do Flutterhy gave her hoof to Blueblood but before they could touch each other a claw grabbed Fluttershy's hoof.

" Oh ? " Discord said to Blueblood with a smirk on his face. " Do you have interest in my " hayseed princess, " Your lordship ? " Blueblood was surprised to see the king but was soon faced of a strange pink puffy maned mare and she said.

" You must be thirsty. Come this way. I have delicious rock soup for you " Taking Blueblood's hoof and jerking it away from Discord and Fluttershy.

" What ? O-Oh no " Blueblood said as he was jerked away. Leaving Fluttershy speechless.

" You don't need to seduce them all, you naughty princess " Discord said being a little jealous. Making Fluttershy blush she didn't mean to do that kind of thing.

" It's his fault if he gets seduced " Fluttershy said turning her head away from him.

" You said Sun-summoning wasn't to be used for self-interest or personal amusement " Wondering why she did it. " Did you change your mind ? "

" Amusement ? It's not about that. The other just happened to be here. I was just.... "

" I know " Discord interrupted Fluttershy. " I know. Thank you " Fluttershy looked up seeing Discord's smile. As Fluttershy looked at Discord she remembers what her grandma said.

" You'll know. You can tell it at a glance "

Thinking about it Fluttershy finally know that the sunlight has reached Discord. Fluttershy smiled and that got Discord's attention still blushing Fluttreshy said.

" No.... I should thank you "

As the day past a next one appeared before Fluttershy. Fluttershy awoke from her sleep and saw that Discord was sleeping beside her as always. She turned to face him and watched him sleeping softy beside her.

" I want to gaze at him. It's like how, when your eyes get used to the strong light, a lot of things come into view " Fluttershy thought as she looked at him.

" He sure is cute when he's sleeping, though. Such long face.....Such smooth coat.... Maybe i'll touch it while he's still being cute.... " Fluttershy said moving her hoof closer to his fur wanting to touch it, but as soon as she got close Discord's eyes opened and said.

" What an unaccommodating mare. This is supposed to be where you get carried away and kiss me " Discord said as a little joke but he wouldn't mind a kiss from her. Fluttershy started to get red as a tomato and and screamed.

" YOU WERE AWAKE ? " Thinking that he might have heard everything that she just said to him. Discord rose from bed yawning from his sleep and said looking annoyed at Fluttershy from the scream.

" If you're going to get me while i'm sleeping, at least do that much. You're so half-baked " Making Fluttershy more red then she could possible be right now.

" A kiss ? Wh-Why should I do that ? "

" Don't play dumb with me. It won't make a difference if you do it once or twice " Discord said grinning at the sight of seeing the little mare before him completely bushed as Fluttershy remembered the kiss Discord gave her. Outside of the couples room Fancy pants was walking towards their room.

" Shut up ! You did that without asking me " Fancy pants opened the door and said.

" Majesty. It's time to wake up "

" Hey, somepony's here to see you. Get up already " Fluttershy pulled on the quilt were Discord was laying again on the bed. Discord was pretending to sleep and said.

" I won't wake up until you do it " Acting like a spoiled brat.

" Wh-What " Making Fluttershy Blush again. Fancy pants walked towards the bed and said to Flutterhy.

" Princess Fluttershy " getting Fluttershy's attention. " Get it over with already " Fancy pants said it with a lifeless look on his face. Fluttershy was getting cornered from every direction she had no way out of this mess.

" Like he says " Discord said waiting for his kiss.

An Heavenly Mission

In the library of the castle Discord was wearing a blue royal attire with a big red bow on the front. Discord was posing for the painter to paint him on the canvas.

" That's our king Discord. Picture perfect " Foto finish said. " As usual, no retouching necessary " Discord was starting to get annoyed by the mare. " E-Excuse me.....could you turn up the corners of your mouth a bit more ? " Foto finish said. Discord tied to smile but as he did it, it more looked like he was going to kill something or somepony. Fancy pants saw the smile and thought the same thing as the painter and Foto Finish looked scared so he took matters in his own hooves.

" Smile, sir. For the good of the country " Fancy pants said whispering to Discord.

" In what way is this " For the good of the country " Discord said getting more annoyed by the second.

" The royal family bulletin only comes once a year. Many of the citizens look forward to it. Consider your bond with your kind and smile "

" But where is the princess " Discord said after hearing a sudden scream that was familiar to him.

" Fluttershy was in her room trying to fit in a corset with the help of her three maids, but it turned out to be a death sentence for Fluttershy. While Sweetie belle and Scootaloo were fighting the princess while tying up the corset really tight around Fluttershy's middle, Fluttershy screamed as she wasn't breathing through the tight corset.

" Just a bit more, princess Fluttershy " Sweetie belle said a she pulled harder on the string making it tighter for Fluttershy.

" Call on your womanly spirit " Scootaloo said pulling just as hard on the strings as Sweetie belle.

" Princess Fluttershy, endure it " Babs seed said Watching from the sidelines.

" I can't... It's choking....Me.... To death " Fluttershy said trying to breath though the pain.

" Silence ! " A stallion said hitting the floor with his hooves to make the others stop in their actions. " Those who call themselves the royal family must at all times practice superior dress and decorum. I am The Rain kingdom's top designer Hoity Toity, and if you are going to wear my designs, you must conduct yourself in a manner befitting a queen. " Hoity Toity said tying up the corset of Fluttershy, he hit her back with his hoof as he was finished and said. " Posture " Flutetrshy was standing still as Hoity Toity looked at her body making Fluttershy nervous. " Kindly lose five more kilograms before the engagement ceremony " Fluttershy was surprised by the amount and said.

" Five kilograms ? " Not sure if she could do that, she was already thin as she was. Going on a diet to lose more weight, she can't possibly do that.

" Tell the chef that starting today, he must remove all carbohydrates from Princess Fluttershy's meals " Hoity Toity Commanded to the maids.

" W-Whait a minute " Fluttershy tried to protest to this idea. " What's this " engagement ceremony " Stuff ? " Fluttershy said No idea what they were talking about. " I know about the wedding ceremony, but..... " Fluttershy couldn't even finish her line as Sweetie belle and Scootaloo pushed her to the dressing room.

" It is a traditional sacred rite that is held before the wedding ceremony " Hoity toity explains to Fluttershy as she watched herself in the mirror. Scootaloo and Sweetie belle were drawing the curtains closing the view from Haiti Toity as they dressed Fluttershy in her dress. " It's also know as " The Exchanging of the Rains. " The stallion and mare each bring a ring and exchange them to formalize their engagement. "

" Wow, Fashionable " Fluttershy said as she looked at her dress. On the door of Fluttershy's room was a knocking sound heard and opening the door was Foto finish standing saying.

" Pardon me " As she walked in with Discord behind her. " How are Princess Fluttershy's preparations coming ? " Fluttershy walked thoughts Foto Finish to show her the dress she's was wearing. The dress was a old greek like white dress with golden linings in it. " Lovely " Foto finish said as she looked at the dress. Discord moved his head to looked at Fluttershy from behind Foto finish who was in the way of his view.

" I guess you can dress up anything " Discord said thinking she was beautiful in any dress, but this one looked like she was a angel in white. Fluttershy was getting embarrassed by all the eyes watching her.

" That was unnecessary " Fluttershy thought.

In the meeting room of the castle, The three counsel members were looking at the royal family bulletin that the painter just finished making.

" My, my, my. I thought I was looking at a goddess. Is this really our Princess Fluttershy ? " Star Swirl said as he looked at the book.

" beautifully drawn, aren't they ? Absolutely gorgeous " Kibitz said.

" Only bored housewives read the royal family bulletin. " Discord said from his misshaped chair.

" Your presentation to the citizens is coming up. But there are many things to be done before then.... " Randolph said turning his head to the king. Discord rose from his chair and walked thoughts the three counsel member saying.

" I've finished all the complicated behind-the-scenes nonsense. If nothing comes up, things should go just as I planned them " Discord said not even realizing that in a church a stallion was reading the royal family bulletin until there was a knock on the door. The stallion swapped the book for an in broidery.

" Come in. " The stallion said. The door was being opened and a stallion came in saying.

" Pardon me, sir Double Diamond " He bowed his head. " There is something I must inform you of right away. It is.... " Whispering the rest in Double Diamon's ear making the news pin his hoof with the needle making the broidery dirty with a stain of blood coming from his hoof.

Back in the royal castle Fluttershy was looking for a delicious diner but instead found a plate with only some beans on it and the rest of the table was lying with delicious salads and cakes but she couldn't eat any of it. Fluttershy looked at her plate and said with a sigh. " That's all ? " Almost crying her eyes out Pinkie pie was hiding behind a big vase with flowers in it and said.

" Princess Fluttershy " Waving her hooves at her. " Princess Fluttersy " Fluttershy leaved her chair and went to Pinkie pie. Pinkie pie showed her a basket full with cupcakes and said " Just don't tell that mean old pompous dude " Fluttershy could kiss Pinkie but didn't. She said with smile.

" Your the best Pinkie " Fluttershy gave the mare a huge and soon went for the cupcakes but was stopped as a sound of a hoof coming down on the floor, Fluttershy recognized that sound anywhere, she turned around to see Hoity Toity standing there.

" The public engagement ceremony comes only once in a lifetime. do you intend to abandon my masterpiece and wear off the rack ? " Fluttershy gave up and gave the basket with cupcakes back to Pinkie pie and went back to her chair eating the beans with disappointment. Pinkie pie was just as heartbroken as Fluttershy and said.

" It's heartbreaking..... " Crying out for Fluttershy's sake. Diner was interrupted when Fancy pants came in smashing the door open and said in a rush.

" Princess Fluttershy ! come to the office at once ! It's an emergency ! " Fluttershy didn't know what was happening but by the reaction from Fancy pants it couldn't be good.

In Discord's office Fluttershy and Fancy pants just arrived to see Discord in a frustrating situation, Discord was holding a piece of paper smashing it in frustration. His eyes were sunken awn to the size of little beans and his teeth rubbed against each other just from reading the paper that was send to him, Discord said with a shocked voice. " The engagement's been canceled " Shocking Fluttershy from the news.

" What in Celestia's name ? "

" The Ministery of the Priesthood did it " Discord said with a angry voice.

" Ministert of the Priesthood ? " Fluttershy never heard of those names.

" They are the state's highest organization for managing the rites for various gods, including our county's patron deity, the Rain God. Weddings in the royal family must have the approval of the Ministry of the Priesthood. But they have made the decision not to approve of his marriage to you " Fancy pants explains.

" But why ? "

" The reason they gave is because you are of a foreign ethnic group. " Fancy pants said. Fluttershy couldn't believe it and Discord wasn't happy about it either Clenching his fist Discord said.

" It's ridiculous. That means nothing in this country. It's just a pretext. Historically, there have been other lawful wives from foreign ethnic groups. I'm the one they don't like ! "He looked so scary that Fluttershy did a step back out of fear and asked him.

" Why don't they like you ? "

" They may bear a grudge for how he took an ax to the degradations of the Ministry go the Priesthood when he first ascended the throne. They said that if we insist on their accepting you, you must undergo the Rite of Illumination " Fancy pants said.

" Illumination ? "

" It is a special ritual. You must retrieve a special ring to be used in the exchanging of Rains which is consecrated in a underground temple. The underground temple is one of the most perilous parts of our county, located in the depths of a miasmic valley. Countless princesses have lost their lives there. because of that, the custom fell into decline two moons ago, but....." Fancy pants couldn't even finish as Fluttershy said with her hooves on the desk were Discord was sitting at.

" I'll do it "

" Didn't you hear what he said ? " Discord said not believing what she just said. " Does she want to die ? " discord thought.

" If I do this Illumination whatever, he'll accept me, right ? So, I'll do it "

" It's not that simple " Discord said trying to chance her mind.

" Accepting the trial would be acknowledging that the Ministry of the Priesthood was correct in refusing to permit the wedding " Fancy pants said.

" In other words, accepting that I'm not like the pony's of this country " Fluttershy thought.

" They are not the only forces in this county who think ill of his majesty. Are you prepared to face all of them ? " Fancy pants said making Fluttershy unsure of her capability that she should help them but she was wrong.

" This underhanded way of doing things must be the work of Double Diamond, but don't worry. Even if he sends every one of his retainers at me " Discord rose from his chair and said with a imitating voice. " I will not allow the slightest harm to come to you. So shut up and let me protect you ! " Discord said making Fluttershy cower before him.

" I can't say a word back to him, But I don't like just being protected " Fluttershy thought as she was send away to her room, laying on her bed looking at the celling she thought. " I don't want to a burden all the time. That's the one thing I won't be " Fluttershy jumped out of bed and went to her widow balcony seeing the room a crossed hers was the light still on. " He's still not asleep ? " Fluttershy took a night rope and said. " Jeez..... always taking everything on his shoulders.... " Walking thoughts the exit of her room.

In a field of roses Young Discord was taking to a unicorn mare who looked like an angel herself dresses in white and a white mane and a purple coat " Discord. take this " The mare said giving young Discord a box, Discord opened the box revealing a A silver ring inside of it with little blue gems in it.

" A ring ? "

" It is a ring of protection that was given to me when I left my hometown. When you find someone you love, give it to her " The mare said.

" But why give it to a stranger you don't even know ? Why not keep it for yourself ? " Discord said handing it back. " A pretty mare like you should keep a precious item like this " The mare smiled at the little creature before her and said.

" So passionate. But please, take it. You never know what the future might bring " Discord heard a door open and closing again starting to wake up from dream he was having he saw a night rope covering him and heard hoof steps outside his office walking away.

" A rare slip, even for me. " Discord said feeling the warmth of the rope.

The next morning Fluttershy was getting ready for the day and asked Sweetie belle who was doing her hair a strange question. " Where to find the Priesthood ? " Sweetie belle said brushing Fluttershy's hair with her magic holding the hairbrush. " They're usually in the eastern temple. Do you have business with them ? " Sweetie belle asked.

" I guess " Fluttershy said not liking it to lie to her friends, but she has to do this. " He told me to just sit tight, but I really want to get a look at these guys " Fluttershy thought.

" But even the royal family can't enter the temple without permission " Sweetie belle said just remembering that part. " It would be one thing for a servant like me, but...." Looking at Fluttershy through the mirror. Fluttershy was completely staring at Sweetie belle like a hawk making Sweetie belle nervous. Fluttershy had a idea in her mind that was going to be risky, but could work nicely, she needed a maid outfit just like Sweetie belle's so she asked one. Sweetie belle arranged a maid outfit that was Fluttershy's size and with that Fluttershy went to the Priesthood to negotiate with the ministry of the the Priesthood.

" Okay ! Now, if I cover my face with the shawl...." Fluttershy thought as a good idea to not be recognized by the guard's in front of the building and the pony's in the Priesthood. Fluttershy walked the stairs to the Priesthood building where a guard was standing, Fluttershy bowed before the guard saying. " I'm the big sister of Mary, Lady in waiting to the priesthood.I came to bring her a change of clothes and a letter " With that Fluttershy stood up and walked by the guard before he stopped her he said.

" Wait "

Fluttershy immediately panicked and thought to herself " He found me out ? " The guard turned around to face her and said surprising Fluttershy.

" you really developed an hourglass figure since the last time I saw you " Not noticing Fluttershy wasn't really the big sister of Mary.

" Ah, thank you now please go back to work " Fluttershy said with a smile while thinking. " Okay, time to get inside " Flutetrshy walked inside the building when a sound of broken glasses got her attention, she looked at the direction where the sound was and seeing three stallions in sacred vestment clothes with the middle stallion a stain of whine on his sacred vestment and a cane in his hooves and with a mare dressed as a maid and with crossed-eyes on the ground picking up shards from the broken glasses. The stallion who got the stain from the whine scolded the mare.

" Fool ! Look what you've done to my sacred vestment ! "

" I'm terribly sorry ! Please, forgive me " Derpy said apologizing to the stallion who had a cane in his hooves.

" I'll strike you down for your insolence ! " The stallion said about to hit the mare with the cane in his hooves, just as it was about to hit Derpy the cane broke in half with a clean cut from the wind knocking the stallion back with the wind. Before he could speak he saw a mare with pink mane blowing in the wind standing before the mare who was about to get hit. " You're..... " The stallion said as he know who that mare was standing before him. Fluttershy rises her head reveling her face to the stallion before her. " Princess Fluttershy ! " The stallions of the Priesthood and guard's were all staring at the sighed of Princess Fluttershy and her power.

" This power ! Princess Fluttershy ! It's really her ! " Stallions allover the place said.

" How dare you raise your hooves to a woman ! " Fluttershy said as she saw everything what was going on. " Isn't this a house of god ? " Fluttershy was really angry with the stallion, she couldn't just standby and watch.

" I don't want to hear that from some foreign Princess ! " The stallion said who had the broken cane in his hooves ready to hit Fluttershy with it but was stopped by a hoof from a another stallion who had white mane and a white coat saying to the stallion.

" Don't do it, minor Star Gazer. Forbearance is one of the teachings of god " Fluttershy was surprised, she didn't even see him coming. Double Diamond was staring directly at Fluttershy as he let go of Star Gazer.

" Y-You're.... Double Diamond ! " The stallion said not knowing he was the one who stopped him.

" This is him ? " Fluttershy thought as she looked at him smiling at her. Double Diamond bowed his head while saying.

" Forgive me for not coming to welcome you, your highness. Forgive the rudeness of my subordinate, as well " Double Diamond said apologizing to Fluttershy.

" You should be apologizing to her, not me ! " Fluttershy said still angry at Double Diamond's subordinate. Double Diamond looked at the mare hiding behind Fluttershy and then looked at his subordinate.

" But you power is truly shocking ! " Double Diamond said changing the subject at hoof. " I hear you can call the sun and the wind, as well. Incredible " Double Diamond said still smiling at Fluttershy, making Fluttershy confused.

" Is this really the guy ? Not quite what I imagined..... " Fluttershy thought as she looked at Double Diamond.

" Sun and wind are ill-omened things which disappears the rain. We do not need them in this country " Fluttershy was shocked by the words Double Diamond said. " Yes. You are an ill omen " Double Diamond said not smiling anymore revealing his true self to Fluttershy.

" Yeah, this is definitely him ! " Fluttershy thought not trying to show him and fear. " You're pretty up front about all this "

" If his majesty were to find out, i'd be sent straight to prison, right ? " Double Diamond said with as smile on his face. It was like he had two personalities. " There's no making amends with a king like that, either. He made it clear when he chose a princess like you.... Just how much he takes after that lonely life of his "

" I've experienced a lot of hostility since I came to this country, but this is different. This is sheer malice " Fluttershy thought. " He must have felt it all this time. All by himself... In that body of his....."

" Discord never should have been born. " With that Fluttershy was so in rage with the stallion before her, she was ready to kick him when Derpy who Fluttershy protected stopped her.

" Don't do it, Princess Fluttershy " Derpy tried to held Fluttershy back, " You'll lose your position if you raise a hoof against a priest ! " Double Diamond grinned in amusement seeing the little pegasus mare that couldn't do anything to harm him.

" Let me go ! " Fluttershy really wanted to get that smug look off his face. " I can't stand it. I can't stand it ! " Fluttershy thought.

" You should be grateful to us. We're giving you a chance to do this aboveboard, so that you don't end up the way he did. It's up to you whether you take it or not " Double Diamond said smiling at Fluttershy before he left. Fluttershy fell to the floor with Derpy beside her.

" He's been hurt to many times, and this time it's my fault "

" Your highness. Let's go outside for now " Derpy said not noticing Fluttershy trying to hold back from crying but it couldn't be stopped. " I might..... Not be able to stay with him...... " Fluttershy said crying.

" R-Regardless, I'll take you back to the palace " Derpy said helping Fluttershy to stand up on her hooves. " Actually, um....Would you mind making a stop on the way ? " Fluttershy whipped her tears away with her hooves and looked puzzled at Derpy.

Fluttershy and Derpy were in the countryside of The capital city : Ginitari. Fluttershy looked around seeing beautiful landscape and fields with crops and pony's harvesting plants.

" Amazing ! " Flutetrshy said cheering up a bit from everything.

" This is the best time to see them " Derpy said looking at the pony's working hard to harvest everything in time. " But that's not what I wanted to show you. " Derpy walked towards a little building and showed it to Fluttershy. " That is " Fluttershy looked at the building seeing little filly's at one of the widows glaring at Fluttershy and Derpy. Fluttershy finally understood what kind of place this was. " Those filly's are all refugees or orphans . Until recently, they were part of what were called " the lower classes. " The king quickly abolished the class system, but he never actively concerned himself with this establishment. But lately..... " Fluttershy felt a pull on her maid outfit and looked at who or what was doing that, she say a little earth filly with a light golden coat, a light orange mane, and purple eyes her name was Noi. Noi pulled on Fluttershy's outfit again and said.

" Hey ! You're the queen, right ? You are, aren't you ? " Fluttershy bowed down to the little filly and said.

" You know me ? "

" You know, This ! " Noi held a piece of paper what looked like a magazine and showed it to Fluttershy. " I love reading it. Is the king not here today ? "

" Yeah, it's just me. Has he come here before ? "

" Yeah ! He looked at the flowers for the longest time " Noi pointed her hooves at a flower bed full of different flowers. " See ? There ! I asked him " do you like flowers ? " and he said " I don't know. Flowers really are just flowers. " Fluttershy smiled at the thought that he said that to her to.

" Sounds like him " Fluttershy thought.

" But he says that looking at the flowers reminds him of you ! "

" Oh " Fluttershy's cheek slightly turned a little red.

" Not just flowers. wind, trees, the rain.....everything in the world that never moved him before. When he think of you, he can see their beauty for the first time, he said " Fluttershy was happy that Discord was seeing the world in a whole different way.

" They all say it " Derpy said holding three red roses in her hooves. " King Discord has changed. Thanks to Princess Fluttershy. As far as we're concerned, you have more than proved your worthiness to be queen. " Derpy gave Fluttershy the roses, she couldn't be more happier then this knowing their are pony's cheering for her.

" Thanks you " Fluttershy said excepting the flowers and thought. " I want to repay those feeling. I want to become worthy of them. " Looking at the flowers seeing their beauty and scent Fluttershy said. " It's true. They really are beautiful. "

Back at the palace Discord as sleeping soundly until he felt a soft hoof stroking his head. Discord slowly opens his eyes seeing a pony in front of the lamp looking like a angel in the light of the lamp and said. " An angel ? " Discord looked closer and say Fluttershy sitting on the bedside.

" Sorry. Did I wake you ? "

" No. I was just lying down for a bit. " Discord rubbed his eyes and sat right up in bed saying. " But what's that sweet smell....." Discord looked at his bed and it was covered with roses. " What's all this ? " Fluttershy laughed at seeing Discord's Surprised face and said.

" Isn't it nice ? "

" Majesty ! what has happened ? " Fancy pants said as he opened the door with a bang. Apparently he heard Discord's voice and came in a rush, but when he saw the roses on Discord's bed he was also surprised.

" The kids at the orphanage sent them for you " Discord and Fancy pants who walked to the bedside of Discord looked both at Fluttershy as she walked thoughts the window balcony. " I learned a lot about you today. " Fluttershy turned around with a serious look on her face. " Hey. I want to take that trial " Fancy pants was shocked at the statement, trying to stop the Princess from going.

" Weren't you listening ? To undertake the Rite of Illumination....."

" I'm going to face up against it all " Fluttershy said interrupting Fancy pants. " I'm going to make them accept me. I won't give anyone cause of complaint. "

" But....." Fancy pants said worried for Flutetrshy's safety. Discord went out of bed saying to Fluttershy.

" Fluttershy, if you throw yourself in the face of criticism, you won't escape unharmed. " Discord said also worried for Fluttershy. " If you stay behind me, I'll protect you. "

" I know. I haven't forgotten what you said about not letting any harm come to me, but I don't mind getting hurt " Surpising Discord with what she said. Fluttershy grabbed Discord's paw and claw and said holding them close to her. " Any ham that comes to me because of you is harm that I need " Fluttershy looked in his eyes, all that discord saw was sad eyes shimmering in the light. " I want to share your pain. So I want you to let me fight. With you " Discord began to shake and stopped looking in her eyes facing away from her making Fluttershy worry about him. " Hey ! what's wrong ? "

" I can't stand it. Knock it off ! " Discord finally snapped surprising Fluttershy, she did not imagine this to happen. " You hear me ? I thought you'd be really anxious about this, so I was going to take this chance to act all chivalrous ! " Making Fluttershy cower at his outburst. " what am I supposed to do if you do it instead ? Idiot ! " Fluttershy didn't know what to do, getting nervous more by the minute, sweating like crazy. " You really are completely lacking in charm ! " Getting so confused by all of it, Fluttershy felt so dizzy thinking what she did wrong.

" Huh ? Why's he mad at me ? " Fluttershy thought as Discord walked away from her saying.

" But if you insist, I'll just have to do what you say. " Discord opened a drawer taking out something and walked back to Flutershy. " Hey, Fluttershy. hold out you hoof. " Fluttershy did as Discord said giving him her right hoof, Discord said then. " No, this one " Discord grabbed Fluttershy's left hoof and placed the object in her hoof. Fluttershy looked at the object in her hoof, it was a silver ring attached to a silver chain. " It was a gift from someone. I'm sure it will protect you. Wear it around your neck. It won't be official until the ceremony. " Discord place a kiss on the hoof he was holding making Fluttershy blush, he looked at her in her eyes with concern. " Come back safely "

" Sure. I'll be back soon " Fluttershy said smiling at Discord.

In the middle of the night in front of the underground temple in the depths of a miasmic valley Double Diamond said as he opened the gates.

" Fourth daughter of the Sunlight kingdom, Princess Fluttershy. We shall now conduct your rite of Illumination " Fluttershy was wearing a white hood nodding at Double Diamond saying she was ready. " The entrance here will be sealed. None can enter after you do " Fluttershy was looking around seeing Discord and Fancy pants supporting her though it all, but something didn't sit right with her as she looked at the four cloaked pony's completely covered in the cloaks not revealing their faces at all. " You must find another exit from the temple by yourself. The time limit is the morning of the state ceremony. You know what you must do, correct ? " Double Diamond asked.

" Yeah. I go into the Rain God's temple and take his ring, right ? " Fluttershy said a little nervous about this all but she has to do this, for herself and to the pony's supporting her.

" The ring should be consecrated within the Rain God statue in the deepest part. " Fluttershy was given a torch that she held with her wing and was placed in front of the opening of the temple. " Now go, and may God protect you. " Double Diamond said at last. Fluttershy looked at the dark cave and gulped at the sight of it.

" Okay, here I go...." Fluttershy thought about to leave until Discord said.

" It's a maze in there. Keep your wits about you. "

" No need to worry ! Just trust in me and wait here. " Flutetrshy said not sure if she was lying or just being stupid, she is scared as what now seeing that dark cave.

" I know you'll laugh in the face of any danger. Just don't come back feral. " Fluttershy laughed a little nervously at Discord's joke not sure if she is that kind of pony.

" That's what you're worried about ? "

" I trust you " Discord said tying not to look worried as he saw Fluttershy leave in the cave saying to him.

" I'll be back soon " Heading in the cave shutting the gates behind her. Discord saw a few of the cloaked pony's leave and looked Double Diamond in the eyes seeing a smug on his face as he was about to leave as well. Discord wasn't feeling good about this not after seeing Double Diamond smiling about the situation.

In the cave Fluttershy was walking through the tunnels of the cave hearing a constant water dripping from the tunnel. " It's darker than I expected. He said to just follow the path down, but......" Fluttershy thought as she keeps walking the same path. " It's getting complicated, and I'm losing my sense of direction " At the end of the path Fluttershy saw a big open space with pillar holding the ground up. " Which way ? " Fluttershy looked at the big open space not sure which way to go. " I guess I should look at the map he gave me " Fluttershy took out a map under her wing that Discord gave her but as she looked at it, the map was like a little filly's drawing she couldn't even read it. " He can't even draw a map ? " Fluttershy thought as she looked at it, she putted it away thinking it won't help her so she should do it herself. " Normally, I could get a feel for it by how the air was moving, but the air here is so stagnant and heavy...." Fluttershy looked around thinking which way to go. " I won't be able to call the wind if something happens. " Fluttershy choice a effective way to decide on a way by using a little game. " Now. Eeny, meeny, miny, moe...... " Pointing her hooves at every direction until it stopped by moe, walking in that direction Fluttershy said. " Well, let's have a look " The path fluttershy choice was a small path with a cliff on her left and a stone wall on her right. Fluttershy place her hoof on the wrong side of the path and almost fell down if not for her wings her torches was now in her hooves. " That was close ! " Fluttershy looked at the little stones of the path fell down in the cliff. " I guess I can't take this lightly....." Fluttershy thought of what Fancy pants said to her.

" Countless princesses have lost their lives there. " Thinking about it made Fluttershy agree with that statement.

" Yeah, this place would be impossible for a born-and-bred princess. " Fluttershy looked at the ring hanging on her neck with the chain Discord gave to her.

" I'm sure it will protect you " Holding to ring in her hoof made her strong thinking back on that memory

" Yeah, I'm okay, I'll come back, for sure. " Putting the ring back in her hood getting back at her mission. " Okay ! " Getting through small tunnels and cliffs, seeing a big bug on the wall what would scare any princess but Fluttershy was actually impressed by the rare creatures living in the cave. Fluttershy was walking and walking until the path was ending by a cliff almost fallen as she didn't see the end of the path. " Whoops ! " Downing a few steppes back from the cliff. " I won't fall for that once twice ! " Moving the torches a little closer to the open space Fluttershy saw a building in it. " that's....the Rain God's Temple ? " Fluttershy flow down to the temple and looked around the place. " Wow.....look at all the stuff down here. That's the Rain Dukedom for you " Fluttershy stumbled on a old statue of a mare with a sword and a staff in her hooves. " This is it ? " Thinking that the ring is here somewhere, Fluttershy saw a hole where the torch could be place as she did it the space was surrounded by fire, lighting up the hole space. Looking around the space trying to find the ring but there was nothing until Fluttershy remembered something that Double Diamond said.

" The ring should be consecrated within the Rain God statue " Fluttershy looked at the statue of the Rain God.

" Consecrated inside ? " Fluttershy looked under the statue, feeling that one of the stone tiles moved as her hoof went by it. Fluttershy pushed the stone tile and it went in the ground revealing a little box Fluttershy thought it might be the ring she was suppose to find. " It's here ! This is it ! " Taking the little box in her hooves. " Now, finally......" Fluttershy opened the little box seeing with shock that the ring wasn't in there. " It's empty ? why ? " Thinking about Double Diamond Fluttershy know what was going on. " He never intended to accept me from the start ! " Fluttershy heard a strange sound, when she looked around her the same four cloaked pony's from before were surrounding her. " And this is way beyond not accepting......." Fluttershy was out numbered she tried to be brave. " Sacred rite, huh ? What a joke ! " Trying hard to keep track of everypony what there doing, one wrong move and she could be dead.

" I know how you feel, highness. Ever since Discord ascended the throne. He has done nothing but joking around with us and the traditional retainers. " One of the cloaked unicorn's said. " All he does is pointless cater to the common pony's, abolishing the lower classes and otherwise threatening the structure of society. " Lighting up his horn to attack and the others followed. " This is bad. At this rate...." Fluttershy had a huge disadvantage for she wasn't a unicorn. " His tyrannical abuses of power have only escalated since you arrived. Not only are you a princess of a foreign country, you are a direct threat to us. So I will end you here " Fluttershy didn't know what to do everypony was closing in on her lighting up their horns to fire at her.

Author's Note

What will happen to Princess Fluttershy ?
Only the sun knows the answer.....

Sorry for the huge cliffhanger, but héy that makes it exiting for the next chapter.

A Ring Of Light

Fluttershy was put in a difficult situation, trying to find a escape from the pony's surrounding her. The flames around the space has been put out by the stallions to get closer to her.

" Not only are you a princess of a foreign country, you are a direct threat to us. " Lighting up their horn's to kill Fluttershy. " So I will end you here. " When the stallion was about to fire Fluttershy ran towards the stallion with the torch in her tail swinging it into his face getting the stallion off guard and missed his shot at killing her. Fluttershy dodged the shots from the other unicorn's who were trying to kill her and thought.

" Can't use the wind....." The group closed in on her again.

" What a very..... brave princess you are " The stallion said recovered from that little stunned she did seeing Fluttershy take off her white hood sending the wrong kind of message to the stallions.

" Sorry to say, but it's your life we're after " But Fluttershy wasn't planning to get those stallion their way with her. Fluttershy placed her torch on the ground and place her hood over the torch, making it go out in a instance making the room completely dark, surprising the other stallions with this. Fluttershy flew through the other stallions making her big escape, the other stallions were about to fire when the leader of the group said. " Hold back ! We'll shot each other ! " Not able to seeing were the target is they could windup shooting each other in the progress. Fluttershy remained running not knowing were she was about to go but she kept running and thinking about one thing.

" I promised I'd make it back..... I promised I'd maki it back safely ! " Out of nowhere Fluttershy was picked up from behind, one hoof covered her mouth and the other was holding her around her waist. Fluttershy was squirming in the hold but it was to strong. " No ! Di....Discord ! "

" She wasn't there ! " The cloaked pony said searching the temple for Fluttershy.

" She can't escape from here ! Find her ! " The leader of the group said.

" Sir ! " continuing their search.

" And make sure you kill her ! " The leader said after he turned to look again, not knowing that Fluttershy and the strange figure were hiding in one of the caves of the temple. Fluttershy was still struggling in the hold of the strange until he loosened his grip to let her go of the hold. Fluttershy turned around to face the strange, but much to her surprise it was no strange at all it was Discord.

" It's only a matter of time if we stay. One way or another, if we can make it out of the temple, we can get outside. " Discord said. Fluttershy couldn't believe her eyes, Seeing Discord in front of her wearing a black cape with golden lines on it. All that she could say was.

" What are you doing here ? " Discord was watching if the coast was clear but turned his head to Fluttershy as she spoke.

" At least thank me, first. " He said as a little joke.

" Hey ! If you're here, I fail the test ! " Remembering what Double Diamond said to her before she began her test.

" You're still on that ? In this situation ? "

" Or rather, what are you ? an Idiot ? How is it that you are here ? A really idiot "

" Don't keep saying it ! " Fluttershy was about to say something until they heard hoof steps coming closer. Discord's claw was covering Fluttershy's mouth making her quite. Discord looked from behind the wall and heard the cloaked pony's talking again.

" Let's check the statue again ! " One of the cloaked pony's said.

" Right ! " Moving back to the statue. Discord released his hold over Fluttershy's mouth, they could breath again.

" There's a route only the royal family knows. I used that. My powers can't teleport me if I don't see the place were I'm teleporting to, so I used that route " Discord said.

" You've got something like that, too ? Why didn't you tell me that from the start ? "

" It wouldn't have been much of a trial, then, would it ? Boring. " Discord said joking around.

" You're mean ! " Fluttershy couldn't believe this guy, he could have saved them so much trouble and instead he wanted some fun.

" You're just now realizing that ? "

" I'm surprised that Fancy pants allowed it " Thinking how protective he is about Discord.

" I didn't tell him " Discord said bluntly.

Back at the palace Fancy pants was looking for Discord but couldn't find him. " Majesty ! " Shouting in frustration as he know that he was gone.

" I'm grateful that you saved me......But I guess...... you really didn't trust in me, then " Fluttershy said with a said tone in her voice.

" I'm a creature of poor character, I guess. I know how evil stallions think. It's not that I didn't trust you. I just..... " Discord stopped before he said anything stupid that he might regret later on. Fluttershy looked at him waiting for him to finish but instead he said. " No, nothing. Right now, we need to focus on how to get out of here. " Changing the subject.

" You...." Fluttershy know he changed the subject but she let it go for now.

" It seems to me that this trial might be used of assassinations. The priests only let the princess they like get out safely. "

" That's barbaric " Fluttershy said as she looked at the ground finding a puddle of water, as she looked at it she go a idea from it. " I've found it ! A way to get out of here...." explaining the plan out to Discord. Back at the Rain Gods statue the guard were still looking for Fluttershy.

" Have you found her ? " The leader said.

" No ! She's not in here " One of the pony's said.

" All that's left is the waterway " The other said. The leader of the group saw fog coming from all directions.

" Were did this fog come from ? " The leader said also it came closer and closer, ticker and ticker almost to thick to see through it. Back were Fluttershy and Discord were hiding, Fluttershy was trying to manipulate the temperature around her. Fog occurs when the temperature of the air falls below the dew point. Because then the water vapor will condense in the air. Fluttershy was trying to concentrate, she never tried this before so this was kind of new for her. Discord was starring in amazement for he couldn't do stuff like this, as the fog became thicker and bigger.

" Incredible..... All this in the blink of an eye. At a time like this " The fog became so thick that he couldn't see Fluttershy anymore. " It feels so real that you....really are...from a distant world... " Discord and Fluttershy ran through the temple thoughts the secret royal route Discord was talking about. At the end of the route Discord and Fluttershy we're in the middle of the forest next to the capital city : Ginitari, They came out of a cave with fog behind them and rain falling down off them. " That fog looks like it'll last a while " Discord said catching his breath from all that running. " That was incredible, I didn't know you could do that, too "

" Haven't you learned anything ? " Fluttershy said also catching her breath, she wasn't used to run so fast of fly for that matter. " I can control anything as long a it represents the sun, all I did was change the temperature of the space that we were in. The principle is the same as making clouds. Do it in the sky, they're clouds. Do it on the ground, you've got fog. " Flutetrshy explained as she looked at Discord seeing that he wasn't paying any attention to her. " Hey, are you listening ? " Discord looked at her and said.

" Of course I a-- " Discord saw a pony like figure in the fog of the opening of the cave were they came out of it. Lighting up his horn to attack, Discord ran thoughts the figure with a serious look on his face that was ready to kill.

" But I think I really owe my safety to this little guy " Fluttershy said showing the ring that Discord gave her not know what was happening. The leader of the assassination group ran past one of the pillars next to the cave turned his head where Fluttershy was and aimed his horn at her ready to shot her, But the shot was midway block by Discords magic but the ring was cut in halve by the magic. Discord pushed Fluttershy away for her own safety, Discord was ready to fight with the leader of the assassins but before he could do anything a sword was lifted to his face by the enemy, so he summoned a sword of his own to match this fight fare and square. Discord had a advantage over the fight since his opponent wasn't really good at sword fighting. Their sword clashed against each other multiple times, seeing that Discord was furious the leader lost his balance and felt to the muddy ground his sword flew in the rainy sky after the next blow of Discord's sword. Discord took this opportunity to finish the stallion for good, he took the sword in both claw and paw with the swords tip downwards bringing it down next to the stallions face making a cut appear on his face. The stallions face was in terror and begged Discord to stop after his was about to cut of his head.

" Please, no ! " Fluttershy grabbed Discord by the shoulders trying to help the stallion that tried to kill her.

" Stop it ! " But discord didn't budge a inch. " That's enough ! Enough already ! " Discord heard a sound that someone was coming towards them and grabbed Fluttershy's hoof and ran away with her before they spotted them.

" Sir Dark moon.... " One of his comrades said. " Are you hurt ? " As he looked at Dark moon their leader seeing his face pale and not moving from the shock.

" Princess Fluttershy went that w- " The other one said as he was about to go after them, but he was stopped as the voice of Dark moon said.

" You don't have to follow her ! " Dark moon stud up and took of his mask revealing his dark gray coat, gray mane and tail, blue eyes, his comrades said.

" Are you certain ? "

" It's fine. First, tell Sir Double Diamond about our foolish king's actions here. " Dark moon said as he looked in the direction of were Discord and Fluttershy went. Fluttershy and Discord were still running with Discord holding Fluttershy's hoof in the rain away from the assassins, but Fluttershy couldn't keep up with Discord as he was faster then her and bigger so she had to fly.

" They're not following us anymore ! " Fluttershy said as she looked behind her but Discord didn't stop even a second.

" He's acting strangely...."

" Hey ! We have to.... We have to go back there ! " Fluttershy said as the ring that Discord gave her was still lying there at the opening of the cave. " Your ring...." Finally Discord said something but it was like his was so angry that Fluttershy flinched at it.

" Like I care about that ! " He stopped running and grabbed Fluttershy crushing her in his hug. " The truth is, I just...." Hearing his voice almost breaking out a cry. Discord moved his face in Fluttershy's mane not letting her see his face. " Couldn't stay there. Without even thinking, I grabbed my cape.....and came here...."

" He's trembling "

Discord cried out a few tears, Fluttershy couldn't do anything but stroke his back and listen to him. " I was so scared that I would lose you. So scared I couldn't stand it ! " He shouted in anger. " If you....If you disappear. I don't know what i'd do ! " Fluttershy blushed a bit that he cared so much for her. " I don't need some ring or some throne ! If it means that I won't lose you.... I would throw everything away ! " Fluttershy was so happy that he finally opens up to her. " I'll happily throw it away ! "

" This is all my fault "

Fluttershy hugged Discord back and said. " I'm sorry. Because I was focused on something so meaningless, you had to think about so many things. Such frightening things....and then you saved me. I...I've been completely wrong. I wanted to protect you. It just slipped my mind. I was blinded by your usual calm, that lucidity unsuited to your age." Fluttershy moved away from the hug to let Discord see her face. " But you've been all alone trembling in fear, just like this. " Fluttershy did the unexpected and placed a kiss on Discord's forehead. Discord's was as wide as they could be seeing the act before his eyes, without knowing Fluttershy use her powers to make the rain stop and the clouds disappear from the sky without even singing, her heart did all the work this time. Seeing the sunrise moving the dark night out. " Even thought you were so young. " The sun made Fluttershy's buttercream coat shine in the light at made Discord speechless. " I'm sorry " Blushing at what she did. " I didn't know how else to stop your trembling, but there's no reason for you to throw anything away. We don't know what the future might bring, so don't think about throwing things away before it's time. Instead, let's visualize a brighter place and work towards getting there together, okay ? " Fluttershy placed a her hoof on Discord's cheek and said with a sweet smile. " Don't worry. I won't go anywhere until then. You don't have to trust anything, but trust in just that one thing. " Discord remembered what that mare said who gave him that ring.

" Discord.... You never know what the future might bring. "

Discord placed his paw over the hoof that was touching his cheek and said " It's true. I never thought I'd ever be holding someone's hoof like this, feeling this warmth...." Fluttershy looked at Discord's shining and smiling face and couldn't help to smile too that he cheered up a bit.

" Beside..... If you weren't the Rain King, You'd have zero appeal, you know ! " Surprising Discord with the sudden change of subject. " If you strip away the whole kingship thing, I if have nothing to do here then since I came here to marry a king. If you aren't going to continue being a king, I will just have to go back to my home country. " Fluttershy said in a teasing way. Discord was not letting that happen so he said with full force.

" Hey ! I take back what I said ! I'm going to cling to my throne with an iron grip ! " He said thinking she was serious about leaving him. Fluttershy couldn't help but giggle at the serious tone of Discord.

" That's good ! " Standing up and looking at the beautiful sunrise that was still visible. " Hang onto the throne for my sake, too, okay ? " Discord stood up from his sitting place and also looked at the beautiful sunrise.

" Yeah, right. "

" The real problem is the ceremony today. " Fluttershy took of the cain with the halve of the ring on it and said. " There's your ring, but....Mine, too, I guess. We'll have to cover for it somehow. "

" I have an idea for how to do that. " Discord said confident.

" An idea ? "

" Discord's ultimate gamble. We're going to win, I promise you. When we're together no one can beat us. " Discord said as both looked at the sunrise, seeing that the dark clouds would return soon.

Back at the castle.

" The voices of the four gods ? " Fluttershy said.

" God of Tactics, Lord Star Swirl. He's famous for the zeus island invasion that resulted in zero casualties. God of weapons, Lord Randolph. Other countries still can't replicate his blasting powder formula. Lord Kibitz is the stallion with contacts all over the world. Good or bad, all organizations show respect to Lord Kibitz. " Fancy pants explains.

" Three such amazing men, and.... "

" Yes. With King Discord they are called " The Four Gods " The decisions made in that room " Fancy pants pointed at the meeting room of the castle. " Are known as the " Word of God " and no man can turn against it. " Fluttershy stared at the door seeing two guards at the entrance and on the door a big cloud with rain coming out of it forged in the door, and on each side of the hallway walls there were three guards standing completely still.

" But even they can't do anything about the ceremony ? "

" It was in that room that, long ago, that it was decided to turn festivals over to the Ministry of the Priesthood. The matter cannot be overturned " Inside of the meeting room The four gods were discussing the matter of the ceremony atlas that is what Discord thought.

" You've got to have beautiful ones ! " Randolph said.

" Beautiful Doesn't necessarily mean better ! " Star Swirl said not agreeing with Randolph.

" That's why I said it earlier ! Only if all other factors are equal- " Randolph said.

" No two of mares are exactly alike, though ! " Star Swirl said.

" You need to consider size and shape and the balance between mares ! " Kibitz said joining in the discussion.

" But the really smart ones are pretty great, aren't they ? " Star swirl said.

" Not everyone feels that way ! " Randolph said. Discord was sitting on his misshaped chair looking down on the three so called gods, not caring at all about the subject and said in annoyance.

" Can we talk about the ceremony already ? " Trying to change the ridiculous subject about different types of mares they like.

In Fluttershy's room Hoity Toity and the maid were trying to get Fluttershy dressed for the ceremony, but that also means for Fluttershy to go though torture again with the corset.

" Hurry " Hoity Toity said to the maids who were tying the strings of the corset together.

" Yes, sir ! " The maids said.

" It's getting hard to breathe ! " Fluttershy said struggling to stay alive long enough.

" I thought you said you lost five kilograms ! " Hoity Toity said.

" I did ! Half of it, anyway " Fluttershy said whispering the last part.

" Princess Fluttershy ! Suck in your stomach ! " Sweetie belle said as she tightens the corset more.

" I'm doing it ! " Babs seed said as she pulled harder on the strings.

" Hold it in ! " Scootaloo said pulling as hard as she can. As the corset got tighter Fluttershy let out a dream of pain out that the whole castle could hear it. On the balcony of Discord's office, Discord and Fancy pants were standing out side with a barrier surrounding them to prevent them getting wet by the rain.

" That roar you just heard was no demon. It is the sign that Princess Fluttershy's preparations are complete. " Fancy pants said.

" That's what I thought " Chuckling at the thought that she's going through tartarus right about now. " The only one who could scream like that...."

" .....Is me, right ? " Fluttershy finished for Discord hearing what he said about her. Discord turned around to she Fluttershy in white greek like dress with white gloves on and a white cape following her as she moved forward to him, seeing him in a white royal attire for the ceremony. " If they ever trussed you up in something like this, you'd understand. "

" R-Right..." That was all that Discord could said as he was only paying attention to Fluttershy's beauty.

" I Guess you can dress up anything " Right ? " Fluttershy said as she remembered him saying this to her the first time she wore this dress.

" No....you're beautiful " Discord said making Fluttershy blush deeply. " As the sky is blue, as the ocean is vast, Fluttershy, you are beautiful. " Not sure what is happening Fluttershy turned to Fancy pants and said.

" Is he sick ? " But Fluttershy only saw Fancy pants holding up a handkerchief to his eyes as her cried some tears.

" No.....King Discord is simply speaking from the heart " Fancy pants said as he continued crying.

" Get out of here " Discord said not able to standing it any longer with Fancy pants crying, so Fancy pants leaved but still cried. " Don't cry ! " Discord said but that only made his cry harder. Fluttershy giggled a little at the little scene and said.

" How's it looking ? The big match..... You think we can win ? "

" who do you think you're talking to ? Losing is the one thing I hate the most. "

" Right ? Hey, say that line again, would you ? " Fluttershy said in a teasing way annoying Discord.

" I'll kill you "

In the middle of the day with the weather as always dark cloud and a ton of rain coming down upon them. on a giant stone tower the ceremony of the Exchanging of the Rains was taken place were giant pillars forming a big circle around the open area in the middle of the tower with a tribune around for the guest who were going to watch the ceremony that was going to take place. On a little stage a earth pony with a pink coat and a purple mane was performing the ceremony with Double Diamond Standing next to the stage. " Because the high priest has been long indisposed, I Amira, will conduct the Exchanging of the Rains today. First, let us give praise for the fine weather that greets us on this sacred day. " Looking at the sky it was covered with clouds and rain keeps pouring down from the sky, fine weather indeed Fluttershy thought. " Your majesty. Princess Fluttershy. " Amira said as she looked at the two. Double Diamond was smile devilish at the two as the ceremony continued.

" There's no reason to call out the high priest for this. An exchanging of Rains without rings is unprecedented. We know that His majesty was in the underground temple, as well....I can't reveal that publicly, but that must be what has him looking so rattled. Right now, we have a hoof around King Discord's heart." Double Diamond thought as he sees Fluttershy giving the box where the rings suppose to be in it.

" Before we begin the ritual, please show us all the fruits of you Rite of Illumination. " Amira said as she opens the box but to her shock the rings aren't in it. " What is the meaning of this ? " Fluttershy bowed her hooves down and her head and said.

" Forgive me. I was unable to acquire the ring from the temple. " Shocking the crowd and Amira, but Double Diamond know this was the end for them.

" But...Does this mean you're giving up on the engagement ? " Fluttershy rises her head to face Amira and said.

" No... I am not giving up ! " Shocking the crowd one more and this time Double Diamond too.

" Double Diamond. " Discord began to speak. Fluttershy rises from her bowing standing next to Discord. " What my princess is saying is that some musty old ring from the underground is unworthy of a creature who is now king of the world. "

" Then..... what would be worthy of you ? Have you prepared a golden ring, perhaps ? " Amira said.

" something far greater. " Discord said with a grant smile on his face and turned around to face of the pony's that gathered here today for the ceremony. " Listen well, everypony ! " Discord shouted so that everyone could hear. " Princess Fluttershy is saying that, for a ring worthy of the Rain king, she will place a giant ring on the sun itself ! Don't you want to see that ? " Making the crowd go wild everyone wants to see that happening. Double Diamond walked toward Amira whispering in her ear.

" What is he plotting ? Amira, do you mean to allow this ? " Double Diamond said.

" Why not ? Do you mean to say you're not also interested in seeing what his majesty produces ? " Amira said.

" Then. please watch my princess and her miraculous talent ! " Discord said as he moved away from Fluttershy giving her all the space she needs.

" Air above and prisms that abound within you, please, respond to my voice. " Fluttershy held out her hoof and pointed to the sky.

The sadness born today
Soars high into the sky
The sky opens it’s eyes and calls the wind
Making my heart tremble

The dark clouds moved away revealing the bright sun that was hidden away by the dark clouds. Fluttershy gathered balls of sunlight around her and placed them in the sky.
" Take each others' hooves and gather the light. Make a shining ring, and place it on the great sun above. "

I want to protect you, I want to feel our destiny
The rear you shed, the hollow in your heart
I want to fill it with happiness

looking at the time that she and Discord were watching the sunrise after the escape from the assassins. " A ring on the sun ? " Fluttershy said in confusion.

" I read about the phenomenon in some old documents. Though they treated it like a bad omen. " Discord said.

" You mean a halo, right ? It's a sigh of rain about to fall. It's also called a " White rainbow. " It's the water crystals that make up clouds bending the light of sun. You want me to make one ? " Fluttershy said.

" Can you do it ? "

" I don't know. even if I did make one, I don't think that would convince them. "

" Probably not. But that's not what I'm after. " Discord said with a big smile and a confident look on his face.

It’s a tender light
May this song reach our side
No matter how far we are apart
Please believe in those words i gave you
Singing in the sunlight
The lightdrops are shinning beautifully
The moment when all the sadness is blown away
The world will come alive
Please come the tender light

Fluttershy took off in the sky putting her hooves above her head as the ring around the sun appeared. Hearing the crowd gasp at the miracle before them, even Double Diamond's and Amira's.

" Th-This is.... " Double Diamond said as he looked at the ring.

Even if one day this scenery withers away in the light
the overwhelming emotion will still
continue to shine into your eyes

Dark Moon who was standing on the sidelines was even bewildering. " There really is....... " He said looking at Fluttershy who was still singing in the sky.

I want to connect our hearts
I want to feel your pain
When you wake up, on the soaked grounds
The buds are definitely blooming

Discord looked at Dark moon's direction and thought. " That's not what i'm after. I just want to shake them up. " Hearing the crowd cheering at Fluttershy. Dark moon couldn't stand it and yelled out.

" Be quiet ! Wake up, all of you ! " But the crowd didn't listen.

It’s a tender light, listen closely
And melt into the tender air
Quietly falling down
I am always by you side
Singing in the light, I will sing
Send my feeling onto the sundrops
Across place and time
There is a shining love
Here comes the tender light

Double Diamond looked at Dark moon as he yelled getting the attention of Amira too. " Dark Moon.... " Double Diamond said.

No matter what our destiny is
Nothing can separate our tied hearts
No matter how sad you are
Smile and it will return to the sky

With shocking eyes Dark moon said. " This engagement was a sham from the start ! " Double Diamond was worried he might say something stupid and thought.

" Stop it...." Discord however got what he was waiting for.

" Those are the words I've been waiting for " Discord thought. As Dark moon continued Double Diamond had to step in.

" Because before the Rite of Illumination was over, King Discord entered the underground temple and gave aid to Princess Fluttershy ! We saw i- " Dark moon couldn't continue as he was smacked in the face by Double Diamond.

Please come the tender light
May this song reach our side
come the tender light

Fluttershy returned back on the tower ending her song after hearing a huge smack. Amira was just as shocked as the crowd that was stunned by the smack across the face. " What is the meaning of this ? " Amira said too Double Diamond but instead of him answering the question Discord did.

" The law of the rite is that after Princess Fluttershy enters the temple, no one else may enter. " Discord said moving forward. The dark clouds formed his way in the sky again covering the sun again. " I broke that law and entered the temple."

" With reason, I presume ? " Amira said.

" It was my only option, to stop the assassination of Princess Fluttershy. " The clouds covered the sky completely now and it started to rain a bit again.

" Assassination ! Double Diamond, did you know about this ? " Turning her attention to Double Diamond who had his back to her.

" Majesty, we planned this all by ourselves it has nothing to do with the Ministry of the Priesthood " Double diamond said turning around to face the two.

" What are you saying ? What did His majesty and you- " Amira said.

" It doesn't matter now " Double Diamond said interrupting Amira. " If you match the scar on his face to his majesty's sword..... " Referring to Dark moon's face as the rain came down from the clouds.

" Are you acknowledging that it's true ? Why....why would you..." Seeing Double Diamonds Angry face.

" Why ? Have you forgotten the restriction that the king forced upon us ? Have you Amira ? " Asking Amira with a twitching eye. " He belittled the Rain God, the source of our authority, struck down our authority and respect...... I just wanted to pay back some of that disgrace ! Are you going to reject that all as foolishness ? " Double Diamond said was anger in his voice.

" Double Diamond. I cannot cover for you. I cannot forgive those who turn against King Discord " Amira said as Discord looked with hatred at Double Diamond as rain drops few down on his body. Fluttershy walked towards Double Diamond saying.

" Double Diamond. I will give the verdict. I have His majesty's permission to do it. " Fluttershy's eyes was filled with fire for the foolish stallion before her.

" Are you going to take my head with the power of the wind ? Princess.... " Double Diamond said a little worried but didn't show it to Fluttershy. Fluttershy took of her white gloves and said.

" My own power's quite enough ! " Fluttershy said as she stroked Double Diamond hard in the face with hoof making a big sound that the whole crowd could hear even the three gods that were watching the ceremony from the palace with magical binoculars.

" She hit him ! " Star swirl said as he looked closely in the binoculars.

" Yes, she hit him> " Kibitz said as he was watching the scene between Fluttershy and Double Diamond.

" Is this the end ? " Randolph said.

" It can't be " Kibitz said.

" Not possible. A king capable of forgiveness.... " Star Swirl said.

" He's certainly changed " Randolph said.

" Yes, he has " Kibitz said agreeing with Randolph. Back at the tower Double Diamond was fallen to the ground after that hit across the face from Fluttershy.

" Double Diamond. As your future queen, I'll give you one degree less than death. In exchange, I want you to approve our engagement ! " Fluttershy said. Surprising him with that Double Diamond said.

" Even now....you want my approval ? Are you trying to show pity for me ? " Fluttershy bowed her head to face Double Diamond and said.

" I don't want any resentment to remain over this engagement. You said that sun and wind were ill-omened things. Is that really true ? The rain may be wonderful, but can you live on that alone ? we all live because of the wind, the clouds, and the sun. They're not things you can throw out just because they're temporarily inconvenient, right ? It's the same for this country, and for you..... You're a part of this country, right ? " Fluttershy said with a smile.

" Impossible.... " Double Diamond said keeping his head down in shame.

" Too soft ? " Discord said as he stood next Fluttershy. Double Diamond raised his head to look at Discord.

" Do you accept this ? "

" I don't care what you all do. If you're going to die out, die out. And if you want to regain that authority and respect of whatever, you can do that, too. It's up to you. " Discord said.

" You've changed. " Double Diamond said in surrender.

" Take him away ! " Discord commanded to the guards. At the end of the ceremony Fluttershy was on the bell tower watch the view of the town in the rain.

" In the end, we weren't able to get a set of rings." Fluttershy said to Discord who was standing besides her.

" Do you remember ? That bridge of light you showed me at the start....." Fluttershy nodded. " For a ring that will bind us together, if we bring that bridge together with this, just one is more than enough. " Discord said hold up the broken ring in his claw. Fluttershy blow in the wind as she did this a spec of light was shown from the dark gray clouds, revealing a rainbow in the sky.

" Isn't it strange ? " Discord took Fluttershy's hoof in his paw and said.

" What is ? "

" We only have half a ring, but the feeling contained within it are so much more. " Fluttershy said as she watched Discord placing the half ring under the rainbow making it whole again with the rainbow as the missing half.

" Yeah...." Discord said.

" Why don't we make more memories together.... from now on ? " Fluttershy said.

A Royal Visit

Back in the country side of the capital city : Ginitari where meany earth ponies were working in the fields harvesting their crops in the rain and a beautiful forest next to to the fields. A mysterious cloaked pony was heading towards the palace of the Rain king, while walking in the direction the mysterious pony heard two earth pony stallion's with equipment for the fields on their backs talking about a certain princess.

" Sure is purring down on us ! " One of the stallions said.

" If this keeps up the orchard'll flood out again. " The other stallion said as the cloaked pony just pasted them.

" What can you do ? Should we ask one of the unicorns to prevent the flood with there magic ? "

" Nah, no need for that, I bet. I saw Princess Fluttershy before. " The cloaked pony kept walking but hearing Princess Fluttershy's name got the cloaked pony attention. Fluttershy was flying in the rain towards the top of one of the bell towers in the country side of the capital city, ones she was there she was trying to catch her breath for a minute and sang to the sky with her angel voice.

The sadness born today
Soars high into the sky
The sky opens it’s eyes and calls the wind
Making my heart tremble

As Fluttershy sang her song the dark gray clouds disappears in the sky letting out the sun and it's light down on the field of the orchard of the earth ponies. As the sun shines down the water dried up leaving the ground dry but still a little muddy.

I want to protect you, i want to feel our destiny
The rear you shed, the hollow in your heart
I want to fill it with happiness

" Hey, cool " The pony's in the fields said as they looked at the sun.

" Is this it ? " Seeing the sun-summoning for the first time pony's said.

" Yeah ! It's Princess Fluttershy's Sun-Summoning ! " One of the older ponies said as his name was Grand pear he had a yellow coat just like Fluttershy's but a little darker and a brown mane with little gray mane in between.

It’s a tender light
May this song reach our side
No matter how far we are apart
Please believe in those words i gave you
Singing in the sunlight
The lightdrops are shinning beautifully
The moment when all the sadness is blown away
The world will come alive
Please come the tender light

After the song was finished the clouds didn't return, Fluttershy made certain that the sky was going to be clear for atlas another hour to let the crops get some sunlight. As Fluttershy saw the work ponies she thought to have a little chat before she went back to the palace.

" Hey, guys ! How are the crops ? " Fluttershy asked as she landed on the ground between the pear trees.

" Looking good, thanks to you. This sun stuff amazes me every time I see it ! " Grand pear said.

" Thank you ! " Fluttershy said smiling by the compliments she got from the farm ponies. Grand pear took one of Fluttershy's hoof and said.

" Though I wish you'd stay with us instead of going back to that king.... " Smiling back at Fluttershy.

" Huh ? " Fluttershy wasn't sure what to say until Grand pears wife yelled at him.

" Dear ! You'll get king Discord angry with us ! " Grand pear's wife said.

" It's fine ! We're plenty far away from the palace. He'll never find out ! " Grand pear said so sure of himself but he was wrong. Back at the palace Discord was watching the whole scene by looking through Binoculars the whole time in his office. Thinking that was the drop Discord snapped his fingers. making a canon ball shoot out of the castle leaving big sound heard after the shoot. Fluttershy was surprised to hear a canon shoot but soon know way and said to the work ponies who were also shocked to hear a canon shoot that they shouldn't worry.

" Huh " Grand pear said shock by the blasted.

" That was a blank charge ! " One of the work ponies said.

" Telling me to come home, I guess. " Fluttershy said as she heard another shoot coming from the canon. " I'll be back some other time, guys ! " Turning to the group to say good bye. " Bye " Fluttershy took off as she flew to the castle the cloaked pony was standing behind one of the pear trees and watched the whole scene.

" Look how she's got the king completely in her thrall. Quite a Princess, huh ? " Grand pear said as he watch her fly away.

" She really is ! " Grand pear's wife said agreeing with her husband. that those events would bring on a raging storm of consequences neither Fluttershy nor anyone in the Rain kingdom could have imagined.

The door of Discord's office was slammed open by Fluttershy as she went in the room.

" Hey, you " Fluttershy said annoyed at Discord who sat on his desk working on papers as Fancy pants helps him with the work.

" Yelling " hey, you " at her husband as she comes home. Such an ill-mannered wife I have. " Discord said still working on the papers.

Coming closer to the desk. " That's rich, coming from someone who called me back with cannon fire. Don't you have any awareness of your post ? " folding her hooves together.

" You are the one lacking in such awareness, my lady " Fancy pants said trowing Fluttershy off her game. " Marital status aside, there is a greater problem ! " Fancy pants yelled in Fluttershy's ear. " The disrespect you show the Rain king...no, the king of the world.....is boundless ! First of all, weren't you supposed to have your etiquette lesson today ? " Fluttershy was ear deaf after that little outburst of Fancy pants.

" Now, now.....let it go, Fancy. It's time to give up on that area. " Discord said with a grin on his face after seeing that little scene preform before him.

" Breaking my heart ! " Fancy pants said face hoofing himself on the forehead.

" But I do want you to stop addressing me as " you " Would you please call me " Discord " my wife ? " Saying that out of the blue like that. Fluttershy began to stutter as she tried to say his name.

" D.....D.....D.... " She couldn't even speak.

As Discord watched Fluttershy getting more nervous he said sarcastically " What, you can't even call me by my name yet ? Even after you rough up the sheets every night...." Making the mare more nervous and her cheeks pinker.

" D-Don't say that in such a misleading way ! I just toss and turn in my sleep. " As the conversation went on Fancy pants got more annoyed as the two forgot all about him. " Why do you want me to call you by your name ? I could just call you " Majesty " Fluttershy said getting to the point that started this conversation.

" What ? " Discord stud up and leaned forward. " There's no affection in that ! I want you to call me..... " Discord couldn't finish his line as a mare's voice talked over his voice.

" Discord ! " Surprising everyone in the room especially Fluttershy. What they saw was a unicorn mare but much bigger than the average pony like as big as Fluttershy's mom ( Celestia ) with light amberish gray coat and a pale and moderate amber mane, with as cutie mark a starfish. Every pony was still looking at the mare as Discord finally said.

" Stella ? " Recognizing the mare before him. Stella ran and jumped on Discord without any warning surprising everyone again. " You.... What are you doing here ? Did you come here by yourself ? " Discord said as he held the mare in his paw.

" Discord......I've missed you " Stella said hugging him tightly around his neck. " My retinue were such slowpokes, so I teleported and went ahead. You've grown up so much, Discord ! I guess we can't take baths together anymore ! " Stella hugged Discord so tight that he couldn't breath as his throat was being swashed by Stella's hooves.

" Wait....hey ! " Discord said catching for breath, but Stella didn't listen.

" No, it's okay ! It doesn't matter ! We swore our future to each other, after all ! " With everything going on those few word drained all the color out of Fluttershy, making her paler then a ghost.

" Huh ? What's going on ? "

At the front gate of the castle a coach was being pulled by pegasus guards and more guards along the way, As the retinue came in the castle as Stella said. Discord, Fluttershy and Stella had afternoon tea together a time to explain everything from top to bottom. Stella was sitting at the end of the dining table with on each side of her maids that were serving Stella, while Discord and Fluttershy wore and the other end sitting together. " Allow me to make introductions: This is the first royal daughter of the Ocean Kingdom, Princess Stella Mare. She and His majesty have been friends since childhood. " Fancy pants explains.

" I am His fiancée " Stella Mare said with pride and confident. Fluttershy looked suspicious at the king sitting next to her, making Discord nervous at how she looked at him while thinking that she might had the wrong idea about the situation and started to say.

" You just started calling yourself that years ago, that's all. " Discord said clearing up this mistake. " I never played along with it " Discord said looking from the corner of his at Fluttershy while saying this. " Neither did your family " Stella Mare was still not backing down about the hole engagement between her and Discord.

" Now, The ocean Kingdom is your oldest ally. They would never oppose it. " Taking a sip of her tea. Fancy pants took the change to clear this out and whispered in Fluttershy's ear saying.

" Well, It's completely one-sided. Don't worry " Fluttershy took this moment to relax a little but thought.

" But wow..." As she looked at the unicorn mare across her. " She looks like a porcelain doll...... " Fluttershy was snapped out of her thoughts as she was being lifted from her seat and placed next to Discord as he was holding her.

" Anyway ! I have a proper fiancée, now. " Fluttershy blushed at the sudden action Discord took to stop the crazy mare obsession with him.

" My heart is not so small that I won't allow for a concubine or two. But.... " Stella Mare stood up from her seat and walked towards Fluttershy. " I will not forgive you...Princess Fluttershy " Touching Fluttershy's body her legs, her waist, her head and face, Surprising Discord and Fluttershy herself.

" Uh... ? " That was all Discord could say as he watch the scene between Fluttershy and Stella Mare. Fluttershy backed away from the big mare and said.

" Wh-What are you doing ? " Her cheeks turning a slight pink color, but Stella Mare didn't paid attention to her but mumble to herself.

" Th-That's a homewrecker for you. What a body....." Stella Mare said creating a sad aura around her for not having such body as Fluttershy's was, such smooth coat and mane, slime figure and pretty face.

" H-Homewrecker ? When did I..... " Fluttershy said not knowing what she was mumbling about. Stella turned around to face the pegasus mare with what looked like a demons face and said.

" Be quit, you bitch ! You emasculated our ambassador ( speaking about Blueblood in chapter 5 ) , Didn't you " Remembering what Blueblood said when he returned saying that she was beautiful and wonderful making Stella Mare more irritated. " I've got your number, all right ! You use your ludicrous talents to seduce every stallion around you ! Do you hear me ? This is no place for you ! I'm not going home until you leave this place in tears ! " With everything said Fluttershy was so confused that all she could she was.

" Huh ? "

In the meeting room the three gods heard that Princess Stella Mare came to Rain Dukedom Kingdom.

" She's come. " Randolph said taking about Stella Mare.

" I knew she finally would...." Star Swirl said.

" Which would you choose ? " Kibitz said.

" The young one just like mine " Randolph said.

" A wife has got to be young " Star Swirl said agreeing with Randolph.

" That really got under my skin...." Kibitz said feeling a chill coming up his spine.

" Yes... " Star Swirl said.

And so promptly..... Fluttershy and Princess Stella Mare were eating at the dining table. Stella Mare couldn't help but brag about everything she does.
The tiny assassin began.....
" Oh, Princess Fluttershy ! Don't you know anything about table manner ? " Seeing that Fluttershy is having trouble in with food she should eat first and it didn't help with Princess Stella Mare bragging about how she knows table manners better then her either. Next was ancient poem as usual Princess Stella Mare know all the poems and what they mean, while Fluttershy had trouble with understanding and reading the poems. " What ? You can't even recite one little ancient poem ? " Bragging about herself again making Fluttershy more irritated by the minute as this went on.
Her wife-removal plan which continued day after day......
Next was music lessons and with that Fluttershy failed in as Princess Stella Mare could play any instrument with her magic. " You can't play one single instrument, either ? " Playing the guitar in front of Fluttershy as she tried to play something but couldn't make out a single tune. Fluttershy couldn't stand it anymore as time went on night fall came, Fluttershy crawled in her bed almost crying for the horrible day that she had to go through.

" What did I do ? " Fluttershy uttered hiding under her sheet. Discord who was having tea by himself wearing his royal attire next to the bed where Fluttershy was lying on.

" Wow, fights between mares are terrifying. Save me, save me..... " Discord said teasing Fluttershy.

" You ! Whose fault do you think..." Fluttershy said facing Discord with the sheet covering the rest of her body but not the face.

" But.....I wonder what happened. " Interrupting Fluttershy. " I hadn't heard from her at all lately. Fluttershy sat straight up and faced Discord.

" Fancy Pants said you were childhood friends, right ? "

" I guess. She tagged along with me a lot. It was king of a pain, to be honest.....But...I was all alone in the palace. Yet she, without hesitating..... " Thinking back on the moment that young Discord was alone in the gardens looking at dark clouds above him seeing and feeling the rain drops fall down on him. " Discord ! " Young little Stella Mare was running towards him levitating a little box with her magic, as she got to young Discord she opened the box revealing what was inside were cookies. " I baked 'em ! eat " She said giving the box to young Discord.

" I was grateful for that, at least. " Discord said leaning back in his chair as Fluttershy listened carefully to the story, as she tried to get comfortable in bed. " Urg....I can't seem to settle down. " she thought. Trying to get comfortable out of nowhere Discord joined her in bed. " Hey ! When did you get here ? " As Discord got in bed he started to take off his blouse that he was wearing. " don't get undressed ! " Fluttershy said getting redder from seeing him strip in front of her.

" What's the big deal ? " Discord said unbuttoning his buttons revealing his brown fury chest. " It's been a while since we did this. Time for a little service. " Discord grinned as Fluttershy backed away a little from him.

" S-Service..... " But when Fluttershy was at the edge of the bed she noticed something or better yet someone. Fluttershy letted out a small scream and moved toward Discord hiding behind him as fast as she could. Princess Stella Mare was holding a pillow with her magic and a bed sheet over her body looking like a big white ghost.

" What kind of service ? " Stella mare heard everything what Discord said and wasn't very happy about it either as she looked like a monster under your bed.

The next day in the dance room of the castle, sweet piano was being played as Fluttershy began her morning dance lessons with Fancy pants as her dance partner, Fluttershy was telling Fancy pants what happened after Princess Stella Mare showed up.

" So, the three of you slept together ? I'm glad you're getting along. " Fancy pants said leading Fluttershy in a waltz.

" Oh please. I could barely sleep because of that. " Fluttershy said following Fancy pants steps.

" You reap what you sow. you're being humiliated because you've neglected your daily training. "

" Th-That's why i'm doing it seriously today ! "

" Although you still step on my hoof once every three turns. " Fancy pants rubbed his hooves from all the pain they are going through, after the little break they continued with there dancing.

" I want to match him a little, too, sometimes. " Fluttershy said was she was twirled around by Fancy pants as she came back after the twirl she stepped on Fancy pants hoof again making him scream out in pain.

" Oh, I did it again. I'm so sorry Fancy pants. " As Flutttershy helped Fancy pants with his pain, Princess Stella Mare came in the room to brag again with Discord standing behind her.

" Oh, was that supposed to be dancing ? It looked like an imitation of a mountain ape begging for scraps. " Stella Mare said.

" Sh-She had to see the one thing I didn't want seen....." Fluttershy thought as she was red from embarrassment. Stella Mare was detriment to show Fluttershy that she was best suited for being Discord's wife.

" Hey, Discord, let's dance, too. " Stella Mare said pulling on his arm.

" Give me a break. I have a meeting to get to. " Discord said not wanting to dance but Stella didn't give up.

" Just one song ! Please. " With that Discord took her hoof and the other claw on her waist and leaded her in a dance. Discord was pretty tall so Stella just her hind hooves to lift herself up to Discord's height, dancing through the song. " Better just get it this over with " Discord thought. As the song continued Stella and Discord looked perfect together dancing for some reason Fluttershy's inside shrunk.

" My, how unusual to see His majesty dance ! " Sweetie belle said looking at the dance performance.

" And dancing with princess Stella Mare.....how elegant ! " Scootaloo said as Stella's mane flowed with the movement of the dance making it sparkle in the candle light.

" Really.....they're perfect together ! " Babs seed said agreeing with the others, but as she said that she saw that Princess Fluttershy was hiding behind her mane and thought that she heard them just now. " Oh, no ! " As the rest of the staff members looked at the beautiful dance and talked about it.

" The Princess of the Ocean Kingdom is just what you'd expect. Such graceful steps. " Staff members said mesmerized by it. " Princess Fluttershy couldn't possibly do that, after all. Seriously " After hearing all those ponies talking about her . " There's always been the height issue, but more than that....." Fluttershy had enough she know that she was smaller that Stella mare and she that can't use magic like Stella Mare, so she decided to leave not able to stand it anymore, as she leaved Fancy pants noticed her leave, hearing the staff members stomped their hooves as the pair finished their dance. Fluttershy walked the hallways thinking to herself.

" What's going on here ? Why do I have to feel so embarrassed about myself ? "

" Perhaps you're starting to understand " Stella mare's voice broke Fluttershy thoughts and turned around to see Stella mare standing on the other side of the hallway but hid her face behind her mane. " With of us is truly worthy of Discord. I mean no disrespect to your country, but for us, marriage is more than an affair of the heart. " Fancy pants followed Fluttershy to see if she was alright but saw that the two princesses where discussing something important and decided to hide behind one of the curtains. " it a one method for two countries to pursue mutual benefits. I would be a fine backer for Discord, and I would not cast shame upon him. can you do that ? You can make the sun shine, right ? What is that ? " Fluttershy didn't want to hear anymore so she flew away out one of the open windows, she just had to go, she didn't wanted to hear anything more what Stella Mare had to say, she just couldn't face the truth. Fluttershy flew to a nearby church to shelter herself from the rain outside, sitting on one of the benches of the church thinking deep about everything what Stella Mare told her as time past the door from the church opened and hoofsteps could be heard, but Fluttershy didn't heard it.

" Hey, Fluttershy " Discord said with Fancy pants behind him. " I've been looking everywhere. You didn't come to dinner, either. What's wrong ? Are you feeling ill ? " Fluttershy stud up and said with a plane voice.

" I'm sorry. I'm going to bed early. " Walking past Discord and eventually disappeared in the rain, leaving discord and Fancy pants.

" This is quite serious...." Discord said.

A memory that Stella had from the time she spent with Discord was that Discord was in the studio hall showing her a map of the stars constellation. " Yes.... Discord has been good at everything since he was young. " A memory that young Discord worked really hard at sword fighting while Stella was watching on the side lines. " I always thought, " Discord should be king. " When young Discord took a break from sword fighting Stella asked him that he should marry her.

" Why ? " He asked.

" Because ! If you marry me, you'll be guaranteed a certain level of position. You might even become Sun King ! "

" Nah. I don't care about that. " Lying down on the cold stone floor under the gazebo closing his eyes.

" But...."

" Beside, when I grow up, I'm getting out of here. Then I'll have a quiet life alone. I have no ties to anyone. That's how i'm going to live my life. "

" When his dreams where crushed, Discord immediately became the Sun King. " Remembering when Stella visited Discord after a long time to graduate him of becoming the Sun King, Discord had already closed his heart to anyone. In the audience room Discord was sitting on his throne with dark expressions on his face. " Oh. Stella. " Stella Mare couldn't even recognize him a her childhood friend. " Been a while. " Those red eyes of him perched right through her. " Have you been well ? " Her body was shaking at the cold look in he have out.

" Deep in my ears, I heard something....resoundingly......crack. It was horrifying. " Stella woke up seeing she was in her bed and it was still dark outside hearing the rain drops fall down on her windows, she began to sit straight up in her bed and tried to calm down after the nightmare she had. Fluttershy on the other hoof was trying to learn how to dance by reading a book to dance better, Twilight told her that everything can be learned by reading the right book.

" And... the first step is like....." She tried to copy the instructions in the book. " And then.... " Twisting her hips in the wrong direction, she got cramps in her back because of it. " Ow, ow, ow..... " Stroking her back with her hooves as she thought. " All this cramming is ridiculous. " She decided to take a little break after pulling this lesson all night and went sitting on the piano in the room. " Can't believe i'm going this far..... With a sigh Fluttershy felt like giving up.

" I thought you were in bed ? " Discord's voice said. He was standing in the opening of the dance room holding two mugs in his claw/paw. " Though I don't mid you this enthusiastic, either. " Walking toward Fluttershy giving her one of the mugs that she gratefully took, with that Discord took a place on the banch next to the piano making the height of the two equel. Fluttershy smelled a delicious aroma coming from the mug and asked.

" It smells delicious. what is it ? " Drinking from his own mug he said.

" Hot chocolate. I had Fancy pants bring it for me. It relieves exhaustion and it tastes delicious. " Fluttershy took a sip of her drink and said.

" It's delicious " Feeling the hot chocolate warm up her body and tasting sweet aroma on her tongue felt nice to her.

" I'm happy to see this, though. You wanted to be with me this badly......" Discord said but as he was a disappointing look in Fluttershy's eyes he know there was something wrong.

" At least, I wish I met you when you were this height......" Fluttershy said but soon released what she said and blushed immediately hiding behind her mane. " What did I just say ? "

" Hey, Fluttershy " Discord said.

" Y-Yes " Fluttershy stuttered.

" I'm not going to let you go. No matter how many people say you aren't suitable ! " Fluttershy stopped hiding behind her mane seeing the serious look on Discord's face. " You're the only one who can give me what I need. It's not dancing or manner or benefits for my country....." With a little chuckle Discord said. " Besides, this difference in our heights is nothing to worry about. We're going to be together all our lives, after all. For now, enjoy it. " Discord afford his paw for a dance which Fluttershy gladly took. Discord lifted her up, pressing her body tight in a embrace as they danced, making music with his magic to dance on. Fluttershy was enjoying herself like never before, feeling his heart beat as she leaned on him.

" Just a few words from him makes me feel so much better. I don't want to be apart from him. So much more desperately than when we first met....." Fluttershy thought as she smiled at Discord. The two danced with each other as long as they wanted too, but they didn't notice that Stella Mare was watching them from behind the door of the music room, seeing everything up tile now.

" Discord's face...." Looking at the smiling and calm face expression he showed Fluttershy. " I've never seen him like this ! " She know she had to do something to win against Fluttershy.

The next rainy day Fluttershy and Discord were called to the training ground for the soldiers and guars of the castle. When she arrived with Fancy pants at the training ground, Stella Mare was already waiting with two royal golden chariots behind her. Fluttershy didn't really understood why she was called here, but she had a feeling she was about to find out and whatever, it was it wasn't going to be pretty.

" I challenge you to a formal duel ! " Stella Mare said pointing her hooves at Fluttershy.

" A duel ? " Fluttershy said a little scared to fight.

" Yes. To a Chitty-Chitty Death Chariot Race to a Cliff " Stella Mare said.

" Are you really a princess ? " Fluttershy and Fancy pants said in harmony. " Normal Princesses wouldn't do such a dangerous sport unless you are an pegasus mare named Rainbow Dash " Fluttershy thought.

" Wait ! " Discord walked up to Stella Mare. " This is much too dangerous. I won't allow it ! " Knowing full well that it is dangerous, but Stella Mare wasn't doing to lose to Fluttershy in a battle of chariot race she done it for years.

" You be quit, Discord. " Ignoring Discord's warning. " This is a venerable method of dueling in my country. "

" I said, " No ! " That's an order ! " Not wanting the two mares getting in danger of a silly game, that was his job, but when Fluttershy flew in front of him with her back too him surprised him.

" Stella's serious. I can't turn her down. " Fluttershy said with confident.

" But...." Trying to stop her.

" I'll be fine. I have no Intention of conceding my place at your side. " Fluttershy said looking at Discord over her shoulder. Discord was amazed by Fluttershy's risk to fight for him. When the race was decided the two mares placed themselves on the chariot with each one stallion pulling the chariot in front on the castle gates, normally the stallions pulling the chariot decide where to go, but now the mares are in control in what direction there going. The rules where simple no wings and no magic are allowed in the race, to make sure the rules weren't broke they tied up Fluttershy's wings and concealed Stella's horn.

" There's a lake just past the forest that runs along the aqueduct. " Stella Mare pointed out from her chariot. " We'll race up to the cliff just before it. Got it ? Whoever stops their chariot first loses ! "

" Got it. " Fluttershy said knowing what to do to win this race.

" There's a chance you could die, you know. " Stella Mare said trying to scare her opponent. " If you want to quit, now's you chance. "

" No. " Fluttershy said with no fear in her voice or eyes she was serious, but as she looked at Discord she thought. " The words he spoke to me spur me on. That's all it takes. And then I feel like I can't lose to anyone ! " Stella Mare had watched enough and was starting to get serious herself.

" Let's go ! " Getting ready for the race, When a canon fire was heard the race began. The two mares moved there reins and the stallions began running on the soaked ground from the rain. Fluttershy was in the lead as the race began with all the rain it was hard to see through it and it was kind of slippery so she had to be careful. Stella Mare who was behind her and trying to pass her was confused. " Oh, no.... I thought a little threat would cause her to back down. " She thought making the stallion pulling her chariot run faster. " Do you want to marry the king of the world that badly ? A country mouse like you ? " She yelled trying to intimidate Fluttershy. " I've loved Discord..... Forever and ever ! " But Stella was still second place. Saying that she loves Discord made her think of all the things she loves about him. " I've loved him.... that sleek black mane.....those fleeting smiles.....but......" Stella Mare snapped out of her thoughts as she heard Fluttershy say something.

" I.....I haven't know him long, compared to you ! But the brief time we've spent together is enough ! The face i've seen in that time....." As Fluttershy screamed her longs out the path of the forest was gone and a cliff was in sight right to them with the ocean below them and the rest of the forest left to them. " The face of the king of the world ! The face of a stallion than a monster, and most importantly, his individuality, his fragility, his vulnerability.....I love them all ! ' Fluttershy yelled out with her face as pink as her mane surprising Stella Mare with what she said. Stella was completely blacked out and didn't even notice that she was heading for the cliff as a voice yelled at her.

" Stella ! Pull back on the reins ! " But it was to late she fell of the chariot in the direction of the ocean. Fluttershy pulled back her reins to stop the chariot and yelled.

" Stella ! " Stella couldn't use her magic because they concealed her horn from using magic, but as she fell her whole life flashed before her.

" What was all that ? That means I just have to accept it ! I was afraid.....Of the way he had changed.....That's why I distanced myself. But.....I hated myself so much for that. Even thought i'd been silent for three years when I heard that he was getting married I just couldn't stay away. " Fluttershy couldn't use her wings so she had to use her magic to save her but has she the power to do it. " But that was also because I wanted to start over..... " Greeting a wind so strong that Stella mare as floating in midair. " My selfish love....and next to a mare that can love Discord's weakness....." Fluttershy was on the edge of the cliff trying to reach for Stella's hoof as she still was concentrating on her magic, but didn't know how long she could keep it up. " I could never......" Stella tried to reach for her hoof, it was so close just a inch closer. " I could never.... compare " Eventually they grabbed each others hooves and Fluttershy tried to pull her up when her concentration was gone her magic was also gone. Stella Mare was swinging down on Fluttershy's hoof when Discord and Fancy pants came to help. One of the stallions who pulled the chariot when back to the starting point and told them what happened.

" Your Highness ! " Fancy pants said running towards them. Discord teleported himself in front of the Fluttershy and with a worried look he said.

" Fluttershy ! " on of the maids that came with Stella said also worried.

" Princess Stella ! "

" Pull her up quickly ! " Fancy pants commanded to the guard that were with them, but all that Stella could see was relieved look on Fluttershy's face and that was also the last thing she saw after she fainted.

Stella mare was in bed when she woke up was, she looked at the clock across her room seeing that it was already evening. Stella was watching the dark clouds with rain pouring down from it, hearing the door of her room open and hearing steps coming closer. How's it going ? " Discord said.

" Not bad, thanks to you. " Stella said hearing from her maid that Discord did everything to help her. " Where is she ? " Stella asked as Discord took place on the edge of her bed.

" Apparently she strained herself for a moment controlling the wind to raise you when you fell. She's exhausted. "

" It must be awful, being weak and little. " Stella said in a sarcastic tune. " Hey, Discord....is making the sun shine really that important ? "

" Have you ever heard her sing her song ? " Discord asked.

" I have. I hate it. " Stella said with a little angry voice. " It feels like it's barging it's way into my heart. "

" Yeah....It can be annoying that way. It's like it strips away all rank and facade, and leaves ponies as just who they are. When you're with her, it doesn't matter if you're a peasant or a noble. Even a king can je be " Discord " Just like how sun light falls in everyone equally. " Stella understood how Discord felt.

" I see.....That is important, I guess. "

The next day Fluttershy heard that Stella Mare was going home and wanted to know why so sudden after her recovering. Out in the palace gardens with Discord's spell from keeping the rain outside the barrier, Fluttershy saw Stella watch the view of the garden walking toward her Fluttershy said. " I heard you're going home today. Why so suddenly ? If you don't mind telling me. "

" Be quiet ! " Stella said. " A loss is a loss. I acknowledge that fairly ! " Stella turned around to face Fluttershy. " More importantly, Princess Fluttershy. " With a serious look that made Fluttershy nervous.

" Y-Yes ? " She said when Stella Mare bowed to her saying.

" I am grateful to you for saving my life. Someday, I will repay the favor. " Fluttershy was happy to she Stella in grate shape and was a little bashful when it comes to things like this.

" Oh, really...." She said.

" But I won't apologize for what I've said ! " Interrupting Fluttershy. " Discord is still Discord. I don't know what he sees in an uncivilized mare like you ! " Totally surprising Fluttershy. " If you're a sovereign daughter, you need to apologize to all the princesses of the world ! Really, it's insulting ! " Stella said turning her back to Fluttershy again. " But... no matter how unsatisfactory you are, Discord really needs you....so show a little pride ! " Fluttershy was taken bak by the sudden change.

" Stella...."

" Hey...would you sing for me ? " Stella said still having her back to her but her voice sounded like she was crying. " I'm about to go say goodbye to Discord. I don't want him to see me like this. " Stella said with tears coming down her face. " So I thought....if the sun was shining I would stop crying....He might not realize. " Feeling sad for her flutter shy granted her wish.

Singing in the sunlight
The lightdrops are shinning beautifully
The moment when all the sadness is blown away
The world will come alive
Please come the tender light

Discord and Fancy pants were going to see Princess Stella off but when they saw the dark cloud disappearing and the sun light coming through, some clouds stayed in the sky with little rain coming down.

" Oh, It's the Princess " Fancy pants said spotting Fluttershy on one of the tower of the castle. " Another gentle sun light today. "

Even if one day this scenery withers away in the light
the overwhelming emotion will still
continue to shine into your eyes

" I understand what Discord meant, now. Annoying girl.....Even thought my heart is breaking from the pain, she has to make the world look so beautiful....." Stella Mare said as she went away with the carriage back to her home country.

I want to connect our hearts
I want to feel your pain
When you wake up, on the soaked grounds
The buds are definitely blooming

Making the dark clouds return as they were and waved goodbye to Princess Stella Mare.

It’s a tender light, listen closely
And melt into the tender air
Quietly falling down
I am always by you side
Singing in the light, I will sing
Send my feeling onto the sundrops
Across place and time
There is a shining love
Here comes the tender light

After a few days Stella went home Fluttershy was out of the castle again and visited the pear family again, but facing the consequences afterwards. " You never learn, do you ? Did you slip out of the castle again ? " Discord said with a cup of tea in his paw. Seeing Fluttershy work on pills of documents with frustration. " You knew Fancy pants would punish you, but you still did it....It's absolutely amazing. No one could do what you do. " Discord said amused at seeing Fluttershy getting frustrated.

" Sh-Shut up ! After I went out to get something nice for you, I'd better not hear any griping. " Fluttershy said grabbing something from under the table.

" Something nice ? " Discord was open-eyed to get a present from Fluttershy for the first time. Fluttershy threw a pear at Discord that he caught.

" I heard they're freshly picked. They were extremely humbled when I said I wanted to take them back to the castle with me. " Fluttershy placed a big bag of pears on the table. " But they gave us so many ! " Discord tried a bit of the pear and said with a full mouth.

" So good. "

" I know, right ? " Fluttershy hid behind her mane and said with a small voice. " I-I wanted to let you have some, too.... King D-Discord.... No... Discord I mean. " Discord was in trans as he heard his name with a beautiful angel like voice, but then thought about something and said looking at the pear as if something was wrong with it.

" Huh ? Wait, this is ....." Fluttershy leaned over the table to look if something was wrong, but then Discord leaned in to placing his lips on Fluttershy's lips. With shocked eyes and a red face Fluttershy pulled back stuttering her words.

" W-Wh--Wha " Fluttershy stopped as she saw Discord's smiling face looking at her.

" Well done my dear. "

I wil try to work on my story as much as possible, goodby and see you later.

His True Face

in the morning of the day. In the dance room was music being played with two ponies dancing in the middle of the room. Performing these beautiful turns is the noble lady, Princess Fluttershy. Her mornings begin early. While performing he official duties as first lady, her days consist of lesson after lessons, like embroidery, table manners, flower arrangement and belly dancing followed by more lessons. Despite how busy this makes her, her never-falling smile is the proof of how enriching it all is. And so, evening falls on another such day. the next day Fluttershy woke up like a zombie pony " The truth is i'm exhausted. " Fluttershy said not able to get out of bed. " Going back to sleep. " covering herself under the sheets again trying to go back to sleep as knocking sound were heard on her door. " Don't wanna...." But the knocking didn't stop instead it got louder. " Fine ! Jeez..." Fluttershy got out of bed and opened the door seeing Discord standing in front of the door opening. " What is it ? Hey, it's been a while. " With all her lessons Fluttershy had hardly the time to go see Discord, but that was the same thing with Discord. Discord gave Fluttershy a bouquet of purple flowers that Fluttershy with a smile took. " Thank you, there beautiful. But aren't you busy ? we'll see each other during our official duties today. You didn't have to come all this way..." Discord took Fluttershy's hoof and dragged her with him not even letting her finish her line.

" Stop looking like you're drawn on paper. " Discord said not able to stand how pretty Fluttershy looked after not seeing her that much killed him almost.

" What does that mean ? "

" It means you look thin " Discord said. " Let's ditch " Discord turned his head to look at Fluttershy with a goofy look on his face.

" Huh ? Ditch ? " Knowing they would get in trouble with you know who.

In the capital city : Ginitari there was a festival going on The festival for planting season. The streets were filled with ponies and stalls with all kinds of stuff to buy. Houses were decorated with flags and balloons with all the colors of the rainbow. Despite the bad weather everypony still had fun with the games and the food. Fluttershy and Discord were at the center of the festival surrounded by ponies around them, Fluttershy looked around seeing ponies happy and cheerful.

" Wow ! The festival for planting season ? " Fluttershy said not really knowing why it's called that.

" It's not the biggest, but you'll see stalls you don't normally see, so I wanted to show it to you " Discord said seeing mares in costume dancing throwing flowers in the air. " You've seemed close to your wits and lately. " knowing that Fluttershy mostly goes to the city to interact with other ponies, she likes to be close to the ponies as much as possible. Rainbow dash always made her interact with ponies if they would go out, to built up more confident Rainbow Dash always said. First Fluttershy couldn't even speak a word out to strangers, but now she like's talking with other ponies to learn more about them and have fun, a specially tittle foals. Fluttershy didn't know that Discord know her little secret was blown out and said with a disbelievable tone.

" Y-You noticed that ? " Fluttershy saw a stall that played a game that she reconnected before. The game was to throw balls at the cans off the shelf they are on. Fluttershy was very tempted to try a game and with the first two shot was a direct hit, hitting three cans of the shelf. The owner of the stall was watching Fluttershy play the games said.

" Hey, girlie, you're not bad ! " Fluttershy couldn't help but blush a bit.

" Back in my home town I was undefeated at this game. " Fluttershy kept throwing the balls at the cans and sure enough all the balls hit the cans one by one throwing them of the shelf. " There, there, there, there ! " At the end of the game Fluttershy won most of the prizes that the owner had, leaving with the prizes and the owner of the stall completely pale frozen in place Fluttershy turned and asked a unicorn mare with dark brown mane and a light gray coat with a tornado as cutie mark. " Well ? Not bad, huh ? " Showing the prizes to the mare who had her back at her. " What are you doing ? We came all this way to a festival ! You need to have more fun ! " the mare turned around looking pissed and said walking up to Fluttershy

" How can I have fun dresses like this ? " Discord's voice came out of the mares mouth and Fluttershy was trying to suppress her laughter as she said.

" What else can you do ? You are the king. You can't walk around town without a disgui- " Discord interrupted Fluttershy and said.

" There are other ways to disguise some creatures ! " Discord said, Fluttershy thought as what happened when the two of them came to the festival in the beginning.

A hour earlier.

Discord and Fluttershy had a little argument about Discord's appearance because every pony was starring at him and that wasn't good. Fluttershy thought about a solution but Discord didn't like the idea to change his appearance with his magic and complained about it, but Fluttershy choose to ignore him as a mare with two little foals on her back walked by and Fluttershy recognized the mare and a idea popped in her head. The mare was a earth pony with light crimson mane and tail in a swirl and a blue coat and as cutie mark three cupcakes, her name was Mrs. Cake. One of the foals on her back was a pegasus with goldish gray coat and a brown mane and the other one was a unicorn with a yellow coat and a orange mane with a little bow in her mane.

" Oh, Fluttershy, ain't it ? " Mrs. Cake said as Fluttershy walked up to Mrs. Cake wanted to talk a little. Discord Just looked at the two as they secretly talked. The next thing Discord know was that he was being dragged away by the two mares in to a dressing room.

" Wait ! Stop it ! Let me go ! " Discord protested " I'm the Rain King ! " Discord said as was being forced to change due to the torture to change in the mare Fluttershy draw on paper by force. Discord tried so hard not to submit, but the torture was crying foals and if there was nothing he couldn't stand was crying foals.

Back to the present.

" Who was that mare, anyway ? " Discord said in his appearance and still mad.

" A friend of mine. she runs a bakery and she's the chairwoman of a theater troupe. She knows a pony who runs a clothing shop on the side. " Fluttershy said.

" I don't care about that ! " Discord said pointing at the black dress he was wearing with a umbrella to prevent from getting wet. " If any pony sees me dressed like this, the embarrassment will never end ! "

" Oh, What's the big deal ? " Fluttershy inspected Discord from all directions " It looks really good on you. No one will realize you're the Sun King anyway. Besides, I always wanted little sister like you. " Fluttershy was the youngest from her sisters so she never had a younger sister like her older sisters. Discord sighs in defeat but was still annoyed to be in a dress. " Now, let's go ! " Fluttershy held out a little teddy bear in her hooves and said cheerfully. " Cheer up, my little sister. " Fluttershy teased Discord a little because now Discord was the same length as her.

" I refuse to accept a big sister like you. " Back at one of the cafe's in the street Discord and Fluttershy were in, a mysterious light golden stallion with a overcoat on was watching the big scene Discord made in his disguise. Drinking a cup of coffee the light golden stallion chuckled in amusement at the little scene.

" Hey, you can't say that ! " Fluttershy said.

" Yes. I can " Discord said.

" Then how about calling me " Sissy " ? " Fluttershy said walking down the street as Discord followed. The light golden stallion saw that the two were about to leave and decided to follow, leaving his table, but as soon as he stood up a unicorn waitress of the cafe called.

" Um, sir. " The light golden stallion stopped. " Have you paid your bill ? " The light golden stallion tossed three bits at the waitress witch she caught with her magic. " U-Um...." She said knowing he paid to much. The light golden stallion turned his head revealing his light golden coat and moderate orange mane with amberish gray tips.

" Keep the change. " The waitress was completely head over heels over him and said with heart shaped eyes.

" Th-Thank you ! " She fainted afterwards. Fluttershy and Discord were walking down the street until Fluttershy got a sudden chill down her spine as somepony was watching them, Discord soon caught the look on Fluttershy's face and asked.

" What is it ? " Both of them stopped in there tracks and Fluttershy looked around and said.

" No, I had a feeling we were being watched. " Suddenly a voice was heard that was saying.

" Give it back ! " Down in a ally Snips and Snails were bullying an earth pony colt with a brown coat, two-tone orange mane and tail with the name button Mash. Button Mash was trying to get his bits back from Snails who stole it from him.

" You're too young to really enjoy a festival ! " Snails said levitating the little bag with the bits in it with his magic.

" We'll use this a lot more effectively ! " Snips said who was holding back Button Mash.

" Wait ! That's the money my brother and I pooled together. " Button Mash said trying to get his bag, but was knock over by Snips and fell to the ground.

" Later ! Take care on your way home. " Snails said walking out the ally with Snips laughing, leaving Button Mash to cry alone on the ground. " We can't have any fun off chicken feed like this. " Looking in the bag who much they scored on the bounty of today.

" Maybe we could built up with some gambling ? " Snips suggested as the two of them walked out the ally a yellow hoof stuck out of the opening tripping Snails and Snips. The bag of bits flew in to the air into Fluttershy's hoof as she caught it.

" You two never change, do you ? " Fluttershy said looking angry at the two who were on the ground.

" Boss ! " Snips said shocked, never imaging seeing Fluttershy at the festival.

" I-It's been so long ! " Snails said scared for he know what her powers could do. Discord didn't know the two but apparently they know Fluttershy and asked.

" Do these two work for you ? " Hearing one of them calling her boss.

" No ! They're....." Fluttershy explained who she met the two colts. The two colt's tried to help her but in the end it turned out to be a trick and stole Fluttershy's luggage. After that they ponynapped one of Fluttershy friend's and wanted to do horrible thing to her, but Fluttershy saved her friend with her powers knocking the two back with her powers of the wind. " Oh, It's too annoying ! " Fluttershy said as she was done telling her story. " We know each other, We know each other ! " Fluttershy said in a rush, but soon turned her attention back to the two colt's. " Are you two still doing stuff like this ? "

" Yes. Grinding our way up from small things. " Snails said begging for his life as his hooves trembled in fear.

" We're enjoying this easy mark town ! " Snips said also begging for his life as they told the truth.

" Don't enjoy it ! Listen, if you ever do something like this again......" Pointing her hoof at them, Snips and Snails hugged each other in fear for the worst. and said.

" D-Don't kill us ! Boss ! "

" I told you, don't call me " boss " ! " Fluttershy said getting a little headache from those two.

" Yes, Boss ! " The two said and galloped away as fast as they could.

" Jeez " Fluttershy noticed the little colt watching in the shadows in the ally and said walking up to him. " Here you are " Giving him his bag back. " Are you okay ? " Button smack took his bag and said.

" Yeah. Thank you, Princess Fluttershy. " Fluttershy had a idea that would make the little colt much happier and asked Discord something.

" Discord, can we give them the prizes from before ? " Discord was surprised that Fluttershy was so generous and said.

" Y-Yeah ! " Carrying up a big bag with his magic. Button Mach looked inside the bag and was amazed by all the toys and candy in the bag. " Now, take whatever you like. "

" Incredible ! " Fluttershy was happy to see Button mash so happy and gave him the hole bag and went back to enjoy the festival as she waved goodby to the little colt.

" Thank you, Your highness ! " Button Mash said waving goodbye.

" Be careful next time ! " Fluttershy and Discord enjoyed the rest of the day looking at the festival in the town square. Music was being played by ponies playing on instrument's like the flute, the guitar or drums. Ponies danced on the music as the rain poured down from the sky. Fluttershy couldn't help by dance with the rest of the ponies and dragged discord along with her, Discord complained first but later he found himself enjoying the festival more then he meant to have. Crowds formed around the dancing group among them the mysterious light golden stallion watched the two dance with each other seeing that they were enjoying themselves.

" It's a total change from before. She's completely won them over. " Seeing Fluttershy's mane dance in the wind with Discord beside her. " Yes....not just the crowds. Even the heart that was closed like an oyster......Princess Fluttershy, are you the real thing ? " As the day ended Discord and Fluttershy were called over by Fancy pants, but as they waited in front of Discord's office Fluttershy couldn't help but shake like a leaf and noticed that Discord was also shaking and asked with a shaky voice.

" Wh-What is it, Discord ? A-Are you shivering ? Even you have something you're scared of ? " Fluttershy said as color drained from her body by every second that goes by.

" Shut up. I'm trembling with excitement " Discord said not wanting to admit that he was scared.

" Then you go " Fluttershy said pushing him to the door.

" Listen, it's seriously dangerous when he gets really mad. " Discord said. The sound of a harp was heard on the other side of the door and that caught Discord and Fluttershy's attention. Discord took it upon himself to open the door, with a shocked face Discord saw a light golden earth stallion with moderate orange mane and amberish gray tips sitting in his chair.

" Oh ? Earlier, you looked the spitting image of a mare. " The light golden stallions said putting the harp down and took up from his chair. " But when I see you now......You've grown quite manly, haven't you ? " The light golden stallion walked up to Fluttershy past Discord and said. " Well. You're Princess Fluttershy, then ? Your dance earlier was wonderful. " Looking deep in Fluttershy's moderate cyan colored eyes.

" Th-Thanks " Fluttershy said.

The light golden stallion got closer to Fluttershy " A token of our acquaintance. " Kissing her on the cheek. Fluttershy's ears burned like they were on fire, but Discord on the other hoof was furious and stepped between the two spreading his arms out and said with a growl.

" You bastard ! What did you come back here for ? " Discord apparently knows the light golden stallion.

" What a cruel way of phrasing it. After I came all this way upon hearing of my brute nephew's engagement. " the light golden stallions said. Fluttershy didn't know Discord had a relative and it was a pony noting like Discord at all.

" Nephew ? The you're Discord's....." Fluttershy said looking from behind Discord's back with wide eyes.

" Idiot ! Stay away ! " Discord said still growling at his nephew.

" Prince Feather bangs ? " Fancy pants voice came from behind Fluttershy and discord in the door opening.

" It's been a while, Fancy " Feather bangs said smiling at Fancy pants while flipping his mane. Discord turned around to face Fancy pants and said with a harsh tone.

" Fancy Pants ! Why did you let him into the castle ? " Fancy pants panicked at the harsh tone of Discord and said trembling.

" N-No, I had no idea he was here either......"

" well, I asked the maids, and they kindly let me through ! " Feather bangs said rubbing his head with his hoof. The next moment fancy pants asked the three maids if that was true and the answer was the same.

" We are the ones who showed him in ! " The three innocent fillies said bowing there heads in shame. " We thought that King Discord know ! We're so sorry ! " Fancy pants couldn't help but let it slide this one time, but Discord on the other hoof was ready to fire them and kick them out of the castle.

" Don't get too mad at them, okay ? " Feather bangs said. Fluttershy stood by as Discord tried to cool down and seeing a mysterious stallion that just kissed her on the cheek act so naturally around Discord.

" Um, so who is this stallion ? " Fluttershy asked fancy pants who was standing next to her.

" Right....Princess Fluttershy, this is Prince Feather bangs. He's the previous king's younger brother and His Majesty's uncle. He served as Prime minister when His Majesty first ascended the throne. " Fancy pants explains. Fluttershy was impressed and thought.

" Prime Minister ? I've never met one of Discord's relatives before..... "

" Fromer Prime Minister " Discord said correcting Fancy pants. " He abandoned that important office and disappeared one day. "

" I don't like to be constrained. " Feather bangs said sitting back in his chair.

" Ha, Is that why you play troubadour ? That's an enviable position. " Discord said amused by the idea and mocking Feather bangs.

" It's good to travel. You can see beautiful things, and you're free to sing and sleep whenever you like. " Feather bangs pushed Discord out of the way and moved closer to Fluttershy as he said the last part. " And fall in love, too. " Discord was already pissed enough at Feather bangs know his going to flirt with his Fluttershy too.

" You bastard ! " Discord yelled but Feather bangs just ignored him and kept talking to Fluttershy who seemed to be getting nervous.

" But, Fluttershy, you certainly are cute ! How old are you ? Are you interested in older stallions ? " Fluttershy was overwhelmed by the questions Feather bangs asked and said with a nervous tone.

" P-Please stop joking. " Feather bangs took Fluttershy by the hoof and acted he was hurt.

" Joking ? How sad. In all my travels around the world, never have I met a mare of such beauty and gallantry as to make me think of a young mare, yet with such a bewitching light shinning in her eyes. " All that Fluttershy could hear was " Blah, blah, Blah, blah, blah " over and over again. " If you claim to doubt my words, I shall cut out this tongue with a stroke and offer it to you, as proof of my pledge of truth. " As Feather bangs finally finished Discord was being hold back by fancy pants and by the looks of Discord furious face it was necessary.

" That's enough ! " Discord struggled in fancy pants hold.

" No matter how he tries to show off, he's always still a virgin, you know ? " Feather bangs said making Fluttershy blush. " I, with all my experience, would be far more- "

" Prince Feather bangs, " Fancy pants said getting Feather bangs attention. " I will ask you to cease. " With a serious tone and look Feather bangs sighed and said.

" Yes, yes. " Getting to the door opening Feather bangs said. " We'll leave it at that for today. " But before going he turned his head and looked at Fluttershy and flipped his mane. " Well, good bye, Fluttershy. " The door was shut behind him before a sudden axe hit him, but it hit the closed door instead. Fluttershy shrieked as she saw Discord's ferrying face and the sudden axe at the door.

" That stupid bastard. " Discord turned around to face Fluttershy. " Hey, Fluttershy. " Fluttershy was a little scared and couldn't help but tremble.

" Y-Yes ? "

" Don't start blushing because he flirted with you ! " Fluttershy finally understood why he was so angry, Discord was jealous of Feather bangs, but Fluttershy never intended to blush it just surprised her that Feather bangs called her cute.

" I-I'm not ! " Fluttershy said.

" The next time you let your guard down with him even slightly, " Discord was getting really close to Fluttershy than she could feel his breathe on her. " It's off to prison " Fluttershy gulped at who serious he sounded and said.

" What ? "

In the meeting room the three gods were gathered to start a meeting and to discuss the welcome of Prince Feather bangs. The misshaped chair where Discord was supposed to sit on was empty and Star Swirl said. " He can't make it, I suppose "

" He has bigger things on his mind, I suppose " Kibitz said from his chair.

" It's an exceeding obvious jealousy, isn't it ? " Randolph said.

" Oh ? You think it's mere jealousy ? " Kibitz said not really believing that King Discord ever could be the jealous type.

" Oh ? You think it's not ? " Randolph said.

" It would be hard for a weapon smith like you to understand the King's relationship to Feather bangs. " Star Swirl said. " He is a draconequus, after all ! "

The next day, Fluttershy was walking the castle hallway's mumbling to herself. " What did I do wrong ? But thinking back, " To the fight between Discord and Feather bangs and how mad Discord became. " There was something pretty different about him there......" Fluttershy heard mares laugh and scream from one of the windows she just past. The window had the view to the west gardens of the castle and apparently Feather bang was hosting a garden party with a big barrier around the party place at the very moment. The group of mares were surrounding Feather bang as he was shooting arrows with his bow in a red dote on a hay bale in a round shape, everything he shoot a arrow the mares would praise him at how good he was. " What's this ? " Fluttershy said as she watched what was going on down there and flew out the window to check it out. The mares at the party were totally in love with Feather bangs as he flipped his mane back and freaked out screaming like fan girl's every time he smiled.

" Prince Feather bangs ! you're so great ! So handsome ! " The mares said. Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle and Babs Seed were out in the gardens too with Pinkie pie bringing out a cake she just baked.

" Prince Feather bangs is as wonderful as ever. " Sweetie Belle said.

" He hasn't lost his touch at all ! " Scootaloo said amazed by Feather bangs shots.

" It's so electrifying ! " Babs seed said falling for Feather bangs, too. Fluttershy landed between Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo saying.

" Ooooh ! " Fluttershy said also amazed that Feather bangs had such good aim. Sweetie belle and Scootaloo were also surprised to see Fluttershy out here.

" Princess Fluttershy ! " The two of them said in harmony. The group of mares really sticked on Feather bang like glue and Fluttershy saw this.

" He really is popular, huh ? "

" They just gathered round at the sight of Prince Feather bangs. Prince Feather bangs is know as the flower of the Royal Court. Not only does he surpass everyone in the fine and military arts, he has the charisma to bring all eyes to him. He's practically like the sun. " Sweetie belle said.

" And discord hates him, right ? " Fluttershy said sighing at the thought that Discord was really jealous.

" Yes, more or less...." Sweetie belle agreed, at that moments Discord sneezed thinking that somepony was talking about him or worse gossiping about him. " Still, it really was strange. I wouldn't have called them good friends, but they were always side by side.....Maybe because they were both so superlative, It's like they were on a different plane, and evryone thought they had a relationship of trust. " Fluttershy couldn't belief it after Discord reaction and anger that he wasn't close to Feather bangs a bit but after Sweetie belle told her about there history together Fluttershy thought.

" The brother of the former king......Wouldn't he have beaten Discord in the line of succession to the throne ? " So why'd he settle for Prime Minister ? " Fluttershy thoughts we're broken as Discord's voice said.

" I never trusted him. " Discord was standing between Fluttershy and Sweetie belle, the two of them jumped up of surprise and Sweetie belle said.

" Majesty ! "

" He was useful, so I used him. That's all " Discord said with his arms at his waist looking how Feather bangs got all the attention from all the mares and even Fluttershy's, it was enough to make him boil from the inside. The three filly's took there leave and while they leaved they said.

" E-Excuse me ! " Disappearing from the scene. Fluttershy tried to slow down her heart that was beating so hard that it felt like it was about to jump right out of her chest from the shock she just got and said.

" What's with you, Discord ? If you're there, you should say something. " Discord was still pissed off by Feather bangs and said in a cocky way.

" You seem awfully interested in him, don't you ? " Fluttershy know exactly where this was going and tried to sort thing out before Discord would get more crazy idea's about her and Feather bangs.

" Listen, you...... " As Feather bangs shot a another arrow with his bow in the middle of the red doted and the group mares cheered loudly that even Discord could hear it and got more pissed about all the attention he got for just shooting a arrow.

" How wonderful ! " All the mares said. Discord took it to himself to show that everyone could shoot a stupid arrow in a red dote. Discord walked up to one of the ponies that had also a bow and arrows and took them.

" Give that here ! " The pony who had the bow and arrow was startled by Discord's sudden appearence and said.

" Majesty ! "

" They're all losing their heads over him ! I can do this, too....." Discord was ready to shoot at the hay bale, but when he pulled the string back it snapped the wood of the bow in half. Everypony was looking at how easily he broke the bow, Discord quickly summoned a new bow with his magic, but the same thing happened over and over again. Fluttershy saw how Discord struggled and asked one of the ponies.

" You can't do it. " Fluttershy told Discord and turned to one of the ponies " Could you bring one with a stronger string ? " Discord kept trying and said as a spoiled little filly.

" I don't need it ! Jeez ! " Discord broke the bow on purpose this time and the pony that Discord stole the bow from cried out.

" My bow ! " Feather Bangs finally got away from the group mares and greeted Fluttershy and Discord as he flipped his mane.

" Majesty ! Princess Fluttershy ! Did you come here to see me ? " Fluttershy's cheeks turned a little red and Fluttershy's voice was nervous too and that didn't go unnoticed by Discord for one second.

" Oh....I-I guess. "

" That's perfect. Tonight, lady Sapphire shores her is holding a banquet to celebrate my return " Feather bangs said pointing out Sapphire shores. She was a earth pony with blue mane and a pale golden coat, her cutie mark was a big sapphire. " I was wondering if you two might attend, as well " Feather bangs turned his attention back to Fluttershy and Discord. Discord letted out a annoying sound and said.

" why would I go for you ? "

" Oh, but the time might be a bit hard on His majesty. It's past the freak bedtime, after all. " Discord couldn't believe he just said that and turned back his demon face on with just a snap in his mind.

" Sounds fun ! I'll go with you all night if I have to ! " Discord yelled angry.

As night fell the banquet of Sapphire shores was started and the guest enjoyed there evening to the fullest. The ball room was decorated by flowers on every corner of the room and on the tables, chandelier light fell on the dance floor as couples danced with the music that was played by musicians. Fluttershy and Discord were sitting on one of the tables that had the view over the hole ball room.

" That was your boat, eh ? " Fancy pants said as he stood next to Discord. " Really. You played right into Prince Feather bangs hooves. " Discord was dressed in a blue royal attire with a black tie around his neck.

" Shut up " Discord said as he watched all the mares at the party being seduced by Feather bangs looks and charm. He was wearing a brown tuxedo with a white tie around his neck and it annoyed Discord so much hearing those mares squabble like chickens over Feather bangs. Fluttershy who was wearing a neon blue dress with her mane in a bun and the tips of her mane loose making it seem like a ponytail. Didn't really payed much attention to the crowd of mares surrounding Feather bangs she just sat quietly drinking her tea and her salad.

" If you were with him, Princess Fluttershy, you could have stopped him. " Fancy pants said.

" But he didn't give me time to stop him. "

" The way he leads ponies around by the nose like it was nothing......he hasn't changed a bit " Discord said.

" that's what made him such a shrewd Prime Minister, but...... " Discord couldn't hear it anymore. " It's so irritating ! " Fluttershy watched as Discord raised from his chair and walked away. " Let's go to the balcony, Fancy pants ! It's too stuffy in here ! "

" Your Majesty ! It's disrespectful for the guest of honor to leave his seat......" Following Discord to the balcony. Fluttershy was left alone at the table, Fluttersy had a feeling that Fancy pants could use some help calming down Discord. Fluttershy got off her chair and walked towards the balcony, but stopped as she felt her hooves in pain of the heels she wore to the banquet.

" Darn it. These heels don't fit right, I guess. " Fluttershy thought as she kept feeling pain in her hooves as she walked.

" Is something the matter ? " Feather bangs said as he stood next to Fluttershy out off nowhere abandoning the group of mares, and scaring Fluttershy from the sudden appearers.

" O-Oh, it's just you. Don't scream me like that, please ! "

" What's the matter ? All by yourself, looking so downcast....." Feather bangs looked closely and saw that Fluttershy's hooves were red from the heels and said. " Oh, I see. Oh, Discord, what were you thinking ? " Shaking his head in shame.

" Prince Feather bang ! " One of the mares called to him.

" Oops. " Forgetting about the group of mares. " Excuse me. would you assist me in losing the lady and her friends ? " Feather bangs asked Fluttershy. Fluttershy didn't really know what he was talking about, but before she could ask she was being lifted up from the ground and was carried by Feather bangs. " How awful ! Princess Fluttershy is suffering a dizzy spell ! " Shouting to the crowed below. I must take her somewhere cool at once ! " Fluttershy was so flustered that she couldn't speak as Feather bangs carried her out of the ball room.

Out on the balcony Discord was waiting or Fluttershy to follow him, but didn't show up after what felt like a eternally. " Fluttershy sure taking her time. " Discord said as he looked back into the ball room he heard a few mares talking about FLuttershy and Feather bangs.

" Oh, Prince Feather nag and Princess Fluttershy together ! it was wonderful ! " Discord opened the door too the ball room from the balcony and got closer to the mares talking. " Seeing him carry princess Fluttershy off like a child ! When the two of them are together, they're as beautiful as a painting. Perfect for each other ! " discord got closer and closer every step he made fueled his anger bigger and bigger. The talking mares stopped with talking as they noticed the King and froze completely in their places. " Majesty....."

Fluttershy was being carried to her room by Feather bangs, but she could just fly or take of her heels in the first place. " This is far enough, isn't it ? Please let me down ! " Fluttershy said as Feather bangs carried her on his back.

" Oh, Dear. It seems you don't like me, now. Despite appearances, I'm usually very popular with mares, you know. " Feather bangs said flipping his mane back.

" I know that ! I saw it just now ! What did you come back here for, anyway ? Why go out of your way to come back to the palace after you left ? Just what are you after ? " Feather bangs letted out a small grin and said.

" What I'm after, eh ? " As Feather bangs got in Fluttershy's room with the lights out and threw Fluttershy on her bed.

" What are you doing ? " Fluttershy tried to move away, but Feather bangs was on top of her body and heeled her down with his weight.

" When I saw you at the castle town festival, " Fluttershy's eyes shrunk as fear consumed her body not knowing what he will do to her. " It's true that my heart was stolen by your beauty. Set that monster aside. " Fluttershy could feel his breathe coming closer and closer. " I could satisfy you far better than he. I love you, Princess Fluttershy. So badly that I want to steal you away. " Feather bangs leaned forward to kiss her, but was cut off as Fluttershy voice stopped him.

" Feather bangs. Stop saying things you don't mean. You disgrace those words. " Feather bangs looked in Flutterhy's eyes and was surprised to see her eyes flame up like fire in the wind, Feather bangs moved back out of fear, letting go of Fluttershy so she could sit up. " I don't have any experience with this either, but I know this much. You aren't in love with me in the slightest. Although I don't know why you're doing all this anyway.... " Feather bangs listened carefully, but couldn't help but laugh his eyes out.

" This is incredible ! Fluttershy, you're the real thing ! I thought a little mare like you would be a pushover, But you actually saw through it ! You're no fool, are you ? " Feather bangs sighed. " In that respect, you're a little bit like them. I guess. Maybe I really could fall for you. " Fluttershy blushed a bit and continued to listen. " But I'm relieved to know that's the kind of mare you are. " Fluttershy thought.

" What he's after......could it be...." The door of the room was smashed open and standing in front of the opening was a very angry Discord with four guards standing next to him.

" Take them ! Both of them. " The guards moved in and surrounded the bed where Fluttershy and Feather bangs were sitting on. " Have Feather bangs thrown into prison. " Discord walked into the room.

" Sir ! " The guards said. Feather bangs got of bed and tried to reason with Discord.

" Discord, she has nothing to do with this. "

" Quiet. You're both guilty of adultery ! " Fluttershy couldn't belief that this was Discord's true face and was scared to the bone, but she couldn't just sit there and watch as the guards moved in to take away Feather bangs.

" That's absurd ! To throw him in prison...." Discord moved close with a dark expression on his face and moved to the bed where Fluttershy was sitting on.

" I told you. Let your guard down with him, and it's off to prison. " Fluttershy didn't know Discord anymore all that she could she was a angry beast in front of her with piercing red eyes starring down on her.

" Discord...." Discord grabbed Fluttershy by the throat lifting her up in the air, Fluttershy was struggling to breath as Discord moved her so close that their noses could touch each other.

" spot it, Discord ! Stop hurting her ! " Feather bangs yelled as he was taken away by the guards, but Discord didn't listen.

" Because I really can have you confined to your room for the rest of your life. So shut up and listen. Or what ? You don't think I can do anything more than this ? " Discord gripped tightly on Fluttershy that she cried out in pain. " Don't take me lightly ! I could burn your whole country to the ground ! " Discord dropped Fluttershy out of his grip making her fall on the bed. " Take her away. " Feather bangs was take by the guard and send to prison. " No, imprisonment is too good for him. i'm going to torture him to death with my own two claw/paw. " Fluttershy had tears in her eyes and a little blood from the scratches in her neck that Discord gave her from his anger.

" Discord..... " Discord didn't listen and was about to leave when he said.

" Take the Princess to my room. Don't let her out. " Fluttershy was about to be taken away by the guard, but fought against them and yelled out to Discord.

" Discord ! Look at me ! Discord ! Discord ! DISCORD ! "

Author's Note

I thought that Feather bangs could be the play boy type in the story and this chapter was halve of the whole story, but I had to cut it in half or els it would be to long.
So stay tuned for the next chapter.
P.S. it could take a while for the next chapter.

Beast vs Beauty

Fluttershy was sent too Discord's room and wasn't allowed to leave, she laid on Discord's bed crying as he came, she didn't look at him as she pressed her face into the pillow. Discord took place on the edge of the bed, trying to say something to break the silence, but couldn't find the words after his break down earlier.

" Fluttershy. " But she didn't move from her position. " Fluttershy. Look at me already. " Discord moved his paw closer to her. " Do you hear me ? Hey ! " But as soon as Discord's paw could touch her, Fluttershy whispered magical words out to control the wind, cutting Discord's goat beard. Discord looked at his beard and snapped his finger to make the beard grow again, but that little prank of Fluttershy wasn't funny at all. " You little minx ! How dare you take advantage of me when i'm humbling myself before you ! " Discord snapped. Fluttershy couldn't believe that he just said that.

" Huh ? When did you ever humble yourself ? ! " Finally facing Discord.

" I did just now ! Couldn't you tell ? ! " Fluttershy was so frustrated that she grabbed a pillow from the bed and throw it at Discord's face knocking him of the bed.

" How could I tell ? ! " Discord growled slowly trying to get up.

" Damn it. " Discord grabbed the sheets of the bed to pull himself up. " I did this because I thought I might have said just a hair too much.....I give up ! " Discord took Fluttershy by the hooves and pinned her down on the bed.

" Wh-What ? " Fluttershy gave off a little red blush by the situation bing put under.

" Tell me ! "

" Tell you what ? ! " Fluttershy struggled under Discord's grasp.

" Everything he did to you ! "

" Huh ? ! " The guard's outside guarding the room like they were told, but couldn't help hearing the loud noises coming out of Discord's room. " And what if I tell you ? "

" Isn't it obvious ? I'll do even more so he won't matter ! " Jealousy taking complete control over Discord's mind.

" Are you stupid ? He didn't do anything to me. I just got pushed down, like you're doing now. " Fluttershy said.

" So he did do something ! Its because he saw that you had an opening ! "

" What ? Enough already ! When it comes to him, you act so strange ! " Fluttershy finally got his attention after what she said. Discord finally knows that he was completely out of his element. Looking out for him self and keeping to himself was what made him the Rain king, but now he cared for the mare under him and felt like he could do and say what ever he wanted too to her and she would listen to him, caring for him with that beautiful smile she always gave him. Now he was hurting her and forcing her to she that ugly side of him, a true beast that was always there. " What happened to your usual calm ? " Discord looked deep in her eyes and saw there were tears building up, he letted go of her hooves and got off bed.

" The party's over. I'm going back to work. " Walking towards the door. he cringed his teeth and said. " Calm ? I couldn't possibly have it. Not with him. " Fluttershy saw how angry he was.

" You.... "

" You cool your head a little while longer. " Leaving the room. Fluttershy grabbed the pillow that she throw at Discord and hugged it tight with her hooves.

" Which one of us needs to cool their head, exactly ? Now, what do I do ? " Looking at the balcony.

Discord stood outside the room in the hallway, not know what to do anymore. " You can leave now. " Discord said to the guards.

" Sir ! "

" Are you certain of that ? " Fancy pants said.

" Even if I set guards or lock the door, if she gets serious, it all means nothing. "

" True. "

" Anyway, what is it ? " The two walked towards Discord's office.

" There's been an emergency summons from the Chamber of Elders. "

" What are those old stallions planning ? " As the two of them leaved, Fluttershy opened the and peaked if anyone was their.

In the Meeting room the three elders were waiting for Discord, but it seems like he wasn't coming.

" As I thought, he isn't coming. " Star Swirl said.

" I suppose there's nothing to be done. " Kibitz said.

" I thought that princess Fluttershy could....." Randolph said but was interrupted by Star swirl.

" Don't be ridiculous. we were putting too many expectations on the Princess. "

" I......had a few expectations, too. " Kibitz said.

In the dungeon, Feather bangs was lying on the hard cold bed of his cel. There was a small open window with bars on it, but it made the cel only colder and rain could be heard from outside. Feather bangs was deep in his thoughts and was remembering a few things from his past.

" You ? The sun ? " A mare said. " Who said such a thing ? " The mare stood on the edge of the fountain and touched the water that was flowing in it.

" The ponies in the palace. " Feather bangs said. The mare laughed at such thing.

" It's because you comport yourself so extravagantly, and never show the contents of your heart. "

" Because that's what everypony expects of me, I suppose. Doing things that way benefits me, too. But.....I can't breathe. "

" I think rather to the contrary. "

" What ? "

" Here, you seem to me tranquil and discreet. I imagine you something more like that. " The mare pointed too the biggest star that was visual behind the dark clouds a star that shined brighter than any other stars out there. Feather bangs looked at the sky and saw the beautiful moon in the sky. " Am I wrong ? "

" No....That's why I could only breathe deeply when I was with you. The world seemed to have color. " Feather bangs looked at the mare seeing her white mane flow in the wind breeze. " Sheila. " Feather bangs said. Sheila turned her attention back to Feather bangs. " I love you. "

Feather bangs was brought back to reality and thought. " It's do far away now, yet it's still enough to cause my chest to hurt....." The silence was broken when the bars of the window broke down with Fluttershy flying in the opening. Feather bangs sat right up and looked at the ground seeing the bars cut down.

" Hey. This way. " flutter shy said getting Feather bangs attention.

" Fluttershy ! " Fluttershy moved her hoof to her lips indicating to be quiet and said.

" shhh ! Stay quiet. "

" what did you come here for ? And did you cut these ? " Feather bangs moved closer to the window.

" I wanted to talk with you. Come out. " Giving Feather bangs a helping hoof. " It's fine. i think that now, if I mediate, he'll hear you out. if you're still worried, you can always come back here. "

" No, I think i'll pass on that. " Feather bangs took her hoof and together they ran into the woods outside the castle. " Next time, he might lock me up for the rest of my life, so I can never leave. "

" Because he throws ponies into prison like toys into the toy box. " Fluttershy said.

" You get it, huh ? "

" Hey ! Look, Feather bangs ! " Fluttershy said as she looked above, seeing that some of the dark rain clouds cleared up revealing the big thing moon, but it still rained. " What a moon ! It was hidden by the rain clouds before, but it's like it came out to see you. " Fluttershy turned around seeing that Feather bangs wasn't very happy to see the moon.

" I don't want to see it. The moon is a painful thing for me. I'm sorry. " Fluttershy walked up to him and whispered magic words out, moving her hoof out to the sky, a strong wind was found and rain drops few on them. The rain clouds moved back too cover the moon and Feather bangs couldn't believe that a pegasus did this.

" How do you feel ? better now ? " Fluttershy said, smiling at him.

" You're very kind. Thank you. " Smiled back at her.

" Hey. when you came back.... It was for Discord, right ? " Feather bangs nodded. " You came back to the country you left, knowing how much trouble it would cause, because you were worried about Discord's engagement.....because you wanted to feel me out. " Feather bangs was impressed that she figured out his plan.

" I can't get anything past you. " Feather bangs chuckle. " Ever since we were little, Discord and I have never gotten along, But we wanted to protect the same pony. "

" Do you mean, Dicsord's....."

" My own feelings were unrequited, of course. Discord and I both felt the same pain over not being able to protect the pony we wanted to protect. However, as long as we had a mission, we could forget that pain. After we conquered the world, I was the one who couldn't face what came after. I ran away.....From Discord. From the memories. " Fluttershy was almost in tears by the sad story. " But for some reason, when I heard he'd met a mare, I got curious. If you turned out to be a wicked, power-grabbing woman, I thought i'd have my fun with you and drive you out ! " Fluttershy was completely taken back and thought by herself.

" That's not funny...."

" But my fears were groundless. You'll be fine. Despite his appearing, he has a heart of gold and a will of iron, But that iron will can also make him dangerously unstable, at times. I want you to stay by him and support him. I'm going to go back out on my journey. " Feather bangs said.

" Why ? ! " Fluttershy yelled, surprising Feather bangs by the sudden outburst. " Why don't you ever try to face him ? If you think he's dangerous, if you know that, then you stay by him " Fluttershy hit Feather bangs on the chest, but it felt like a little push of a foal compared to hers.

" Discord would not allow it. " Feather bangs said. Fluttershy lost her concentration and the clouds began to disappear revealing the moon again.

After Feather bangs left Fluttershy ran inside away from the rain shutting the door behind her. Fancy pants heard the noise and saw Fluttershy.

" Princess Fluttershy ! Where have you been ? Prince Feather bangs disappeared from the dungeon. Everyone's in a panic ! " That's when Fancy pants noticed that something was off with Fluttershy. " Princess Fluttershy ? "

Fluttershy felt like she was useless and couldn't help Discord and Feather bangs. " It's no good. I know it's none of my business, but I can't.... " keeping her head low Fluttershy said. " I can't take this. "

" Princess Flu- " Fancy pants said in concern for Fluttershy.

" Help me, Fancy pants. " Fluttershy said interrupting Fancy pants. Fancy pants saw deep anger filling Flutteshy's eyes, like fire dancing on water. " I'm going to split those numbskulls stubborn heads wide open. "

In the night on the bell tower of the capital city, Discord was looking at the rainy view with a sword in his paw, behind him was Feather bangs listening what Discord had to say. " I can't forgive this world. It keeps turning like nothing's changed. Even thought she's gone. Next time, it will probably swallow me up and destroy me. You've got to be kidding. " Anger reached his voice deeper and gripped the sword tighter in his paw. " If destiny wishes to kill me, then I will control destiny ! Nothing....Nopony....will ever fool with me again ! " Discord turned to face Feather bangs. " Work with me, Feather bangs ! " Feather bangs was surprised what Discord was planning. " In our world...." Feather bangs saw for the first time Discord shedding a tear. " The sun will never rise again. " Feather bangs eyes opened and know that it was a dream or more like a memory from long ago. " That dream certainly takes me back.....I think that's the only time I ever saw him cry. " Feather bangs thought. He stirred in his bed, hearing the sound of a mare.

" Did I wake you ? " Feather bangs looked seeing a red coated unicorn mare with black mane called Burning Heart, she was putting a dress on.

" Going already ? "

" Of course. Mornings are the busiest times of an innkeeper. " Buttoning her blouse.

" How Unaccommodating. "

" Fine words out of you. They're talking about you. They say you made a pass at Princess Fluttershy and earned the wrath of His Majesty. " Burning Heart was about to leave, but Feather bangs stopped her by grabbing her by the hoof.

" That's why....I'd like you to be a bit kinder, and comfort me. " Pinning her down under him. Feather bangs was about to kiss her.

" Go to hell. " When a little filly came into the room.

" Big sis ! " Disturbing the two in a awkward situation. Burning heart shoved Feather bangs too the side of the bed.

" What is it ? " Burning heart said a little annoyed at her sister for disturbing them.

" There's a visitor who's in hurry. " The little filly pointed at Feather bangs. " He's here for the playboy. " Feather bangs didn't think anyone would look for him, but when he saw Fancy pants coming in the room saying.

" Pardon me. We must speak. Prince Feather bangs. " One thing is for sure, Feather bangs didn't like were this was going.

In Discord's office Fluttershy was trying to convince Discord to talking with Feather bangs, but in her own special way.

" Meet up with you ? " Discord said with pills of paperwork surrounding him.

" I-I'd just like to meet up outside now and then. " Fluttershy hid behind her mane and said shyly. " You know, like the cables in the city ! " Discord was almost won over by the idea, but one look around the room and he gave up.

" And I have to do it now ? Do you think you're in any position to ask me for favors right now ? " Thinking back how he reacted when he found out Feather bangs escaped.

" What does that mean ? " Fluttershy said nervous.

" Who was it that let Feather bangs out of prison, I wonder ? " Discord said sarcastically. All the Fluttershy could do was gulp and hope for the best. " It looked an awful lot like the time a certain pegasus broke out of prison. Well, never mind. I'll overlook it. " Discord said looking at the papers again. " I don't care what happens to a person once they're gone. " Signing papers Fluttershy couldn't help but feel sad at that statement that Discord gave her.

" So you're saying you don't regret it ? " Discord stopped with writing as he was surprised she said that.

" Fluttershy...." But as he looked at her, her back was already too him.

" The gazebo behind the palace. I'll be waiting. " Fluttershy said before heading out the room. After the paperwork was done Discord headed out with an umbrella to the meeting place, walking along the muddy path to the gazebo.

" Come on, Fluttershy. Why does she want to meet up all of a sudden ? " Thinking back on what Flutterhy said to him.

" So you're saying you don't regret it ? "

" Why would I regret anything ? " A strong wind suddenly popped out of nowhere and blow away his umbrella and the rain started to blow away leaving only the sun out making Discord sweat like crazy as the temperature for higher. " She.... " Discord ran to the gazebo and as he opened the door and once he was inside he yelled. " Hey, Fluttershy ! You called me out here, what are you trying to- " Soon Discord found Feather bangs inside the gazebo as well, but Feather bangs was also surprised to see Discord out here.

On one of the hills of the woods Fluttershy was singing her song with Fancy pants besides her with a pair of binoculars, watching Discord and Feather bangs in the gazebo.

It’s a tender light
May this song reach our side
No matter how far we are apart
Please believe in those words i gave you
Singing in the sunlight
The lightdrops are shinning beautifully
The moment when all the sadness is blown away
The world will come alive
Please come the tender light

" Princess Fluttershy ! His majesty has just entered ! " Fancy pants said as he looked though the binoculars. " Oh, no ! He's so angry he's leaving ! Increase the temperature ! " Fluttershy tuned up the temperature of the weather making an unbearable heat stroke.

Even if one day this scenery withers away in the light
the overwhelming emotion will still
continue to shine into your eyes

Discord was about to leave when the temperature suddenly increased making him sweat like a otter. " Yes, that's the way ! That's the way ! ' Fancy pants cheered. Feather bangs felt the heat stroke too and pushed Discord back in the gazebo for that was the only place protected by the heat stroke. Feather bangs closed the door behind him, waiting out for the heat stroke to stop.

I want to connect our hearts
I want to feel your pain
When you wake up, on the soaked grounds
The buds are definitely blooming

Discord and Feather bangs were trapped like a mouse in a mouse trap. Feather bangs couldn't help laugh as he looked at Discord. " What ? " Discord said annoyed.

" Sorry. it's just funny. Is this the first time i've ever seen you sweat like that ? "

" Who knows ? " Discord glared at Feather bangs with cold eyes. " i'm not getting close to somepony who's leaving. How could I talk with you about anything funny ? " Both Discord and Feather bangs stayed as far as possible from each other. Feather bangs looked outside and thought by himself.

" So this is sunlight and heat. This is her power ?

It’s a tender light, listen closely
And melt into the tender air
Quietly falling down
I am always by you side
Singing in the light, I will sing
Send my feeling onto the sundrops
Across place and time
There is a shining love
Here comes the tender light

Thinking back on what Fluttershy said to him. " Why don't you ever try to face him ? " Thinking that this was her way to give them time to make up.

" Then let's talk about things that aren't funny. " Feather bangs said getting Discord's attention. " Ever since she was killed, I've been thinking, " what's the best way to protect you ? " The most reliable way I could think of was to give you the throne. Fortunately, I wasn't ambitious, and i did have considerable rank. Plus, you wanted the throne of revenge. I guess it's a little sad. For two creatures that always meshed so poorly, to come together then, for the first time......Anyone we could see as an enemy, we expelled, indiscriminately, within and without the country. Even when there were no enemies close by, it didn't stop. "

No matter what our destiny is
Nothing can separate our tied hearts
No matter how sad you are
Smile and it will return to the sky

Thinking back on the time of war. Feather bangs and Discord were fighting over peace or war. " Sending troops to an autonomous province ? " Feather bangs didn't like the idea Discord gave him. " But we have a peace treaty with them ! "

" They secretly have a large number of troops there. " Discord said.

" That information isn't confirmed ! "

" Shut up ! " Discord hit a vase with flower in it out of the way, making the vase shader in a thousand pieces. feather bangs jumped by the sudden burst out.

" At some point, you had become a broke beast who could not even see the beauty in flowers. "

" I won't hear excuses. I'll crush them all. " Discord said with cold eyes and a wicked smile on his face.

" I thought that as long as you wanted to live, I don't mind you feeding on hatred to do it. That's the way I meant to protect you. But i was wrong. "

Please come the tender light
May this song reach our side
come the tender light

" So you got scared and ran, huh ? " Discord said as he listened.

" That's right, but there was another reason, too. Going out on a journey was a gamble. To see if the world where she lived in was not just one of sadness. I wanted to recover myself. " Feather bangs said facing Discord.

" This isn't very funny. " Discord said making a sad face.

" That's right. Maybe we should top talking about the past. " Feather bangs said.

" You never say the most important thing. " Discord said.

" Discord...."

" What you're trying to say is, " It was all for you. ' Give me a break. " Discord turned with a angry look on his face. " You never cared I felt after you left. "

" Discord ? I...." Feather bangs tried to say something but nothing came up.

" Feather bangs. " Discord looked outside and saw that the sun was almost cover by the dark rainclouds. " The heat wave has died down. " But as soon the clouds disappeared again making the heat stroke again.

The sadness born today
Soars high into the sky
The sky opens it’s eyes and calls the wind
Making my heart tremble

" No, It's suddenly back to the heat wave. " Discord said feeling the temperature raise again.

" What's going on ? " Feather bangs said. discord know that this was Fluttershy's work, but she's been singing all this time to keep them together, but this was a little to much.

" How long have we been at this ? " Discord asked Feather bangs.

" I think about an hour ? "

" She's been making the sun and the temperature appear all this time, hasn't she ? " Discord said. Both know that they had to stop her and decided to look for her in the blazing hot sun.

I want to protect you, i want to feel our destiny
The rear you shed, the hollow in your heart
I want to fill it with happiness

Fluttershy was on the urge to fall down, her voice had become hoarsely and was almost out of breath. Discord and Feather bangs looked around searching for Fluttershy.

" Follow the Song ! " Discord yelled out to Feather bangs.

" Which way ? ! " Fluttershy's voice began to disappear slowly.

" It's going out ! " Discord said as Fluttershy's voice wasn't heard anymore. After a while Discord and Feather bangs found Fluttershy completely worn out and color drained from her coat and mane, sitting against a trees away from the rain that returned. " She's all shriveled up. " As the three of them looked at her. " Fancy pants. call the Lord Physician. " Discord said.

" Sir. "

" You're fine now. Fluttershy, can you stand ? " Discord decided to lifted Fluttershy up and cared her back to the castle. Fluttershy nuzzled her head in Discord's chest making Discord blush, but said in a hoarsely voice.

".....him ? "

" What ? I can't hear you. " Discord listened carefully as Fluttershy repeated herself.

" Did you....tell him ? how you feel ? " Discord was surprised that Fluttershy cared so much that she willingly sacrificed her singing voice for a fight between two cousins and she would do it all over again if she had too, Discord thought. " You're still.....able to reach him.....If it hurts you to lose him....now.....be honest. " Fluttershy slowly fell a sleep in Discord's arms.

" Feather bangs. I'll only say this once. i'm reinstating you as prime minister. Stay here, and work with me again. " With pleading eyes Discord looked at him. " Stay here, please. " Feather bangs was taken back and couldn't find the words too answer him so instead of words he bowed down before Discord and said.

" Your wish is my command.My King. I will build, once more, the world you desire. With you. " Discord and Feather bangs made up and cared Fluttershy to her room, but Fluttershy heard everything they said, she was happy that they finally made up and could rest knowing they wouldn't fight anymore.

At one of the tower of the castle with the view of the hill where Fluttershy sang her song the three elders were watching the whole scene form up there. " Look ! Fluttershy did it, didn't she ? " Kibitz said.

" Who would have ever doubted it ? " Randolph said.

" I do not wish to acknowledge it. My inexperience at my old age. " Star Swirl said. but the other two laughed at him for doubting Fluttershy.

After the whole thing Fluttershy found herself in her room after waking up, but there was something holding her back from sitting right up. " So heavy......" Fluttershy looked at her left and saw Discord sleeping on the edge of the bed holding her hoof with his paw. Fluttershy rolled over to her side and stroke his mane with her hoof.

" Let him sleep. " Feather bangs said surprising Fluttershy. " He's been with you all this time. ' Feather bangs got close to the bed. " How are you feeling ? "

" I feel fine now. " Flutetrshy said as she stopped stroking Discord's mane.

" Prince Feather bangs ! " Fancy pants was being heard in the hallway looking for Feather bangs.

" Oops. " Feather bangs said. Fluttershy couldn't help but chuckle.

" You're as popular as ever. "

" He was spending all his time with you and neglecting his work, so i've been dragged into it instead. " Feather bangs said.

" That's our capable prime minister. " Fluttershy said.

" No, I'm an awful prime minister. when it comes to Discord, all I've done is misread and make mistakes. " Feather bangs looked at the sleeping Discord and smiled.

" But I think because of that, he came back to himself a little bit. It wasn't a mistake. "

" Thank you. You really are great. " Feather bangs said.

" Where did that come from ? " Fluttershy said a bit bashful.

" But All that aside, you really are wonderful, Fluttershy ! " Feather bangs took flutter shy by the hoof and tried to flirt with her. " Hey, do you have any interest in older stallions ? Hey, I think I could fall for you alone ! " Feather bangs was suddenly kicked aside by Discord.

' Hey ! " He yelled. " You really want to die don't you ? " Fluttershy looked at the lifeless body of Feather bangs and was quite shocked that Discord wasn't asleep. " If you love girls so much, look at your face in a mirror ! You sissyboy ! " Feather bangs laughed devilish and grabbed him by Discord's horns but Discord grabbed on Feather bangs head with his claw.

" Now that i'm reinstated as prime minister, you're going to start watching that goat like mouth of yours ! " Feather bags said shaking the horns of Discord.

" What, you want to fight me ? " Discord said tightening his grip on Feather bangs head. Neither of the heard the tiny voice coming from Fluttershy's mouth.

" C-Calm- "

" Whose fault do you think it is that i'm still single ? ! How bad does it burn you that your mare doesn't look like her ? ! " Feather bangs said.

" Y-You two...All over again....." Fluttershy wss getting annoyed by the two fighting.

" Don't say such disgusting things " Discord said.

" You'd better pay back my hard work ! " Fluttershy yelled to the fighting idiots.

In the Kingdom of Sunlight Queen Amore was looking through a magic mirror showing Fluttershy having funny with the two Idiots while reading a letter. Even if you fight, may you try to overcome it, believing in what lies ahead. May dawn come to the long long night, and lead to shining days. She putted the letter down and looked at the bright smile on Discord's face.

" I will not give up, Fluttershy. " She narrowed her eyes at The Rain king.

Author's Note

Just a Little reminder Princess Amore is Fluttershy's grandma, just so you know. She looks young in your minds, but she's old in the story like granny smith but less wrinkles. :pinkiehappy:
And I now my grammar and spelling aren't good, but hey that's just me.
Please comment below what you think of the story. :raritywink:

The Sunlight Kingdom

" It's been three months since I started living in Rain Dukedom. "

It was another rainy day in the kingdom of Rain Dukedom, as carriage's of noble stallions and prime ministers entered the palace. Pinkie pie was in charge of the decorations and the food of course, the ball room was decorated with beautiful flowers and sparkly crystal chandeliers hanging from the ceiling. Pinkie pie was serving glasses of whine on a tray moving between the crowed as noble stallions and mares took glasses of whine off the tray. " Royalt and prime ministers from so many countries. it's quite a spectazing. ( spectacle/ amazing ) " Pinkie pie said as she looked around and wanting to party too, but she had work to do. In the dressing room Fluttershy was getting ready for the party with her three maids, wearing a purple dress.

" I heard it's some big conference about trade agreements. " Fluttershy thought as Fancy pants opened the door saying.

" The delegation from the domain of ideas has arrived ! Come to the audience chamber at once ! " All the noble stallions, mares and prime ministers where going to get a audience with the king and queen of Rain Dukedom. As granting audience with every noble and prime ministers that came today, the amount of pony's were fourteen nobles and ministers that had problems to discuss with the king and queen that would take hours. After only a few of audiences with pony's, Discord and Fluttershy were exhausted from it all.

" So hectic " Feather bangs said letting out a sigh as he looked at a scroll with the amount of audience they had to go through. Discord was wearing a green with yellow royal attire and looked like he was going to die soon as he said with an exhausted voice.

" Who's next ? " Fancy pants looked at the other half of the scroll and said.

" The delegation from Pursues Village in Marakanda Autonomous Domain. " Fluttershy sat on the big throne next Discord and she looked like she was gone die soon too.

" There's still more ? " Discord leaned back on the back of the throne and sighed.

" Well, what can you do ? This is what happens when you play host country to a conference. " Discord looked at Fluttershy as she letted out a sigh of herself, Discord had a great idea in his head as a light bulb appeared above his head. " Once things calm down a little, let's take a trip. You and me. " Discord said leaning toward Fluttershy with a big smile on his face. Fluttershy was surprised as Discord talked about taking a trip just the two of them. " They say there's a great health resort in the southern part of the kingdom. I heard the flowers at night are quite beautiful there. " Fluttershy was getting more and more exited about the trip.

" Even more the here ? My kingdom is always covered with common flowers, so we don't see rare flowers like yours much. " Fluttershy said leaning toward's Discord's direction.

" That's what they say. " Discord said as he looked in her eyes.

" That'll be amazing. " Fluttershy said smiling at him.

" Yeah. " As Discord and Fluttershy looked at each other they realized that both of them were really close to each other that you could almost feel the warmth of the other. Discord looked in two beautiful cyan eyes feeling like looking into the ocean with stars in them, feeling mesmerized Discord closed the space between them and kissed Fluttershy on the lips.

In Discord's head.

Five colorful Discord's were in a panic as red light filled his head with a loud alarm going off. There was a red colored Discord screaming his head off with flames coming out of his head.

" What has he done ! he's an idiot, a stupid idiot ! He ruined the kiss ! I'm gonna kill him. " A blue colored Discord cried his eyes out in a corner.

" This is too romantic for me, what if she didn't like the kiss ? I'm sorry i'm useless ! I'm sorry " A green colored Discord was sticking out his tongue as he looked at the monitor seeing a scene of kissing Fluttershy.

" Oh, he better had brushed his teeth before kissing her. He doesn't stink right ? Oh the scene isn't perfect at all, why choose this kind off place to kiss her why not of the beach or oh I don't know somewhere alone maybe ?. " A purple Discord was hiding under the control table as he curled up in a little ball.

" This is a disaster ! What if she doesn't want to talk to him anymore ? What if she leaves me ? It's all my fault " Their was on Yellow Discord that was dancing around the room yelling.

" He kissed her ! He kissed her ! I'm so proud at him. He hasn't made a move at her in a long time. I'm so happy i could cry " It was a chaotic mess is inside of Discord's head, but what had you expected from a creature like him.

Back in the real world

When Discord leaned back from the kiss a sudden appearance of Feather bangs showed between the two thrones.

" You two.....if you're going on vacation later and do lovely dove stuff, at least work until then. " Discord and Fluttershy turned away quickly, if you looked closely both of them had a slight blush on there cheeks.

" Yes, sir..." Both of them answered.

As all the audience's were finished, the next thing was a international ceremony being held on the giant pillars forming a big circle around the open area in the middle of the tower, with a tribune around for the guest who were going to watch the performance. Fancy pants was as serious as ever and scared Fluttershy a bit as he said to her. " Princess Fluttershy, this is your first time on the international stage. you must perform a Sun-Summoning at the opening ceremony. Whatever you do, you must not rush it ! " Fluttershy didn't really what to perform on a stage with ponies watching her, she had no choice but too agree.

" I-I know that ! But let's go outside and get some fresh air. " Fluttershy wanted too chance the subject too get over the nerves off her, but Fancy pants know where it's was going to lead, he used his magic to levitate Fluttershy off the ground and pulled her back in like a fish.

" Once this i over, you may do whatever you like ! For now, I need you to prioritize getting through this properly, If. You. Please. Princess Fluttershy. Shaking her a bit as he said his final words.

" I'm Sorry ! " Fluttershy said as she felt a little dizzy after that shake and gave up. Fluttershy was preparing for the opening ceremony as she thought deeply, walking in the castle hall's next to a big opening on her left side with a view of the castle inside wall's with rain falling down from the sky. " Summoning Sun for the opening ceremony, huh ? I'd really rather not, but...." keeping up her positive attitude. " I can't say that, I guess. I gotta go this right ! " As Sweetie belle's voice broke Fluttershy's thoughts, Fluttershy turned around too see the three maids walking up to her.

" Princess Fluttershy ! There's a letter for you. " Giving her a white letter with a seal on it.

" For me ? From who ? " Fluttershy said as she took the letter.

" It was an urgent letter from the Sunlight Kingdom. " Sweetie belle said. As Fluttershy opened the letter and read it her eyes went bigger and a huge thunder clap as heard in the sky.

" What is it ? " Scootaloo asked.

" What does it say ? " Sweetie belle asked curiously.

" No, They're just asking if i'm well. " Fluttershy said with a smile.

" Oh, but Princess Fluttershy is always doing well, aren't you ? " Babs seed said.

" Y-Yeah. That's right. " Fluttershy said while put the letter under her wing.

As the openings ceremony on the giant pillar began and Fluttershy did her Sun-Summoning making the dark rain clouds disappear, sun drops fell from the sky, twinkling like stars.

The sadness born today
Soars high into the sky
The sky opens it’s eyes and calls the wind
Making my heart tremble

The crowed could never get enough of the wonders that Princess Fluttershy could do. Discord was sitting at the end of the surface of the pillar, under a tent away from the sun's light and the rain that fell just now and with a front row seat to look at Fluttershy's performance. The whole area around the giant pillars could hear the beautiful voice even the castle staff could hear Fluttershy's song.

I want to protect you, i want to feel our destiny
The rear you shed, the hollow in your heart
I want to fill it with happiness

" Today's Sunlight is especially fine. " Fancy pants said looking at the warm light given by the sun. " Everyone seems truly pleased. " As Discord looked at Fluttershy he could see that something was bordering her, he leaned on the back of his chair and looked carefully at Fluttershy.

It’s a tender light
May this song reach our side
No matter how far we are apart
Please believe in those words i gave you
Singing in the sunlight
The lightdrops are shinning beautifully
The moment when all the sadness is blown away
The world will come alive
Please come the tender light

As the song ended the dark clouds didn't return, Fluttershy's song made the dark clouds disappear for at least another two hours. Fluttershy walked towards the big tent where Feather bangs, Fancy pants and Discord were waiting.

" Good work, Fluttershy. Well done ! " Feather bang said.

" Was it ? Thank you " Fluttershy said with a smile.

" Right, Discord ? Wasn't it nice ? " Feather bangs turned to Discord as he asked him. Discord's face turned into a frown as he said.

" Not a bit. " Surprising Fluttershy, Feather bangs and Fancy pants. " It was totally depressing, and the sunlight felt sloppy and uneven. Most of all, the highest notes were a little low. " As every word was said it struck Fluttershy like a spear was thrown at her.

" What are you talking about ? You're tone deaf anywa- " Feather bangs couldn't finish as discord stood up from his seat and jabbed his elbow into Feather bangs side.

" Anyway ! It wasn't like you at all. " Discord lifted Fluttershy's chin up to make her look at him. " What are you hiding from me ? " Fluttershy couldn't hold back the tears anymore and showed Discord the letter under her wing with a shaking voice Fluttershy told Discord what was writing in the letter.

" I got a letter from the Sunlight Kingdom. It says my Grandma collapsed. " Everyone jumped at the sudden news, Feather bangs took the letter and read it out loud.

" Dear Fluttershy,
I must skip the introductions and tell you something of great importance.
Our Grandmother collapsed. She is currently bedridden.
She says she wants to see you. That's her one lingering regret in this world. "

As Feather bangs finished the letter, Fluttershy's tears ran down her cheeks.

" Grandma is the one who taught me how to sing. She practically raised me all by herself. That's why...." Fluttershy was thinking of going back to her kingdom, she knew that Discord wouldn't like it. " B-But don't worry. I'll get my head back on straight. And I'll take responsibili- " Discord interrupted Fluttershy as he said.

" Forget it. " Making Fluttershy think that he was angry for not telling him about the letter sooner or that he was angry about messing up her performance. " Fancy pants, cancel all of Fluttershy's appointments from now on. Can you do it ? " Discord said as he turned too Fancy pants.

" It is possible. " Fluttershy was speechless.

" How many days will it take to make travel arrangements ? " Discord said.

" What do you mean ? " Fancy pants didn't know where this conversation was going.

" How long will it take to pack luggage necessary to travel to the Sunlight kingdom. "

" let me see. Five days, no we could do it in three. " Fluttershy finally spoke up as said.

" You're going to let me go ? "

" I'm not letting you. I'm going, too. " Discord said surprising everyone at the sudden statement.

" No, no, no, no ! Your majesty, please ! " Fancy pants begged.

" You definitely can't go ! " Feather bangs joined the begging with Fancy pants.

" The signing ceremony is in three days. The travel preparations take three days. It's perfect, right ? " Discord explained.

" What about after that ? There are individual audiences and dinner parties to be attended ! " Feather bangs said. With a cocky smile on Discord's face he said with a dead serious tone.

" What do you think I have a prime minister for ? " Feather bangs face hoofed himself and said.

" Oh....I knew you'd say that. Don't blame me if the throne isn't yours when you get back. " Discord chuckle a bit before saying.

" I'll feel better knowing you're watching things that carefully in my absence. " Feather bangs looked at Discord and said.

" It's for Fluttershy, who's irreplaceable. go on. "

" You're moving up your vacation, I suppose ? " Fancy pants said. Fluttershy was so happy that she had such wonderfull friend and a great husband at that.

" Everyone...... "

As a big royal ship took sail into the sea, the sailer crew worked hard to get things ready with all the rain falling down on them, the sailor crew wore rain coats and clear the deck. Fancy pants was holding a umbrella with Discord standing besides him were at the tip of the ship looking at the horizon. " Thanks to Princess Fluttershy, It seems we'll be arriving quite soon, ahead of schedule. " Fancy pants said as Fluttershywas using her powers to make the wind stronger caring the ship's speed limit to the max.

" Yeah...." Discord looked at the quarterdeck of the ship and saw that Fluttershy was quite depressed looking at the sea. Her cyan eyes were filled with concern as she thought about the past with her grandma.

The past

Queen Amore was scolding young Fluttershy about her singing.

" How many times must I tell you ? You must not imitate your sister's singing ! "

" But eveypony says my singing's unrefined ! " Fluttershy with a few tears in her eyes. " They say it's not pretty like my sister's ! "

" It's not about who thinks you're beautiful. It's about what you think is beautiful. Take pride in what you do. The things that shape your color who you are. That will be your truth. "

Back in the present.

Fluttershy had tears in her eyes as she thought about her grandma. " Grandma.....Please, be well. "

As night fell.

Fluttershy and Discord were watching the deep sea the rain has finally stopped, that means that their close to the outside of the kingdom. The bright stars in the sky were beautiful, the waters reflection was whole new scene too behold. " I didn't think it would be like this. My first trip with you. " Discord said as he stood next her.

" Discord...." Fluttershy felt guilty, she know that Discord wanted to go somewhere else on their trip, but that couldn't be accomplished.

" Why didn't you tell me ? " Discord interrupted her. " About your letter from the Sunlight Kingdom. Even if it came just before opening ceremony, you should have had time to tell me. " Fluttershy know that he was going to say it eventually.

" I just..... didn't want you to worry over me. You had your hoofs full with the conference already. So....." Fluttershy didn't really know what to say next.

" Trying to bear everything by yourself. You don't have to overdo it. " Fluttershy hang her head low in guilt. " Jeez. What do you think a husband is for ? " Discord said holding up her chin too make her look in his eyes.

" By the way, how did you know ? That my sunlight was strange....." Discord grinned and said.

" Our feelings didn't line up. " Making Fluttershy confused. " To make Sun Summoning happen, the feeling of the pony seeking the sun have to be in concert with yours, right ? " Discord said remembering what Fluttershy told him when he asked for sunlight a while back. " But all i got from that sunlight was your feelings. You can't reach a ponies heart with sunlight like that. Even if you fooled the other, you can't fool me. " Fluttershy couldn't help but blush as she looked at Discord.

" Why.....are you looking at me so intensely ? " Discord ran his fingers between Fluttershy's mane as he said.

" Isn't it obvious ? Because you're the only thing I can see clearly. " Kissing her on the head. " If I can be perfectly honest, I'm a little grateful for this situation. I get to see the country where you were born with you. That's the one place i've always wanted to look up at the stars with you, so I can check that off my list. I guess that's improper. Fluttershy couldn't help giggle as Discord snapped a check list and checked off " Seeing the stars with Fluttershy. "

" Seriously. But....." Fluttershy flew up him and hugged him around the neck surprising Discord. " Thank you, Discord. " As the ship sailed on toward's The Sunlight Kingdom Fluttershy thought as she felt a warm feeling in her heart. " I have a feeling.... something's starting to blossom inside my heart. "

As the royal ship entered the harbor of the Sunlight kingdom, the sun was bright and ponies were working hard to bring in the royal ship, it was so big that it had to remove the ship somewhere else as Fluttershy, Discord and Fancy pants were waiting for the welcome committee. Fancy pants was teaching Discord some of the history of the Kingdom. " At the easternmost point of the world, is a remote country that once existed only in the songs of minstrels. The Sunlight Kingdom. There is slap a legend that long ago, in the great empire that spanned half the world, they used their mysterious power to destroy three countries in one night. Whether that is true or not, it is still a country of many unknown. " Fancy pants whispered in Discord ear behind Fluttershy's back. " No offense to Princess Fluttershy, but we must remain on our guard. "

" I know. So who's come to meet us ? " Discord said inpatient too wait any longer, Fluttershy was watching a blue pegasus coming closer and closer to her.

" Rainb.... " Before she could call out to the blue pegasus she was knocked off her hooves and fell to the ground. Rainbow dash got hugged Fluttershy tightly as she said.

" Flutters ! I'm so happy your here ! I have missed you so much ! " Fluttershy was trying to say something but couldn't get a word out as her lungs were smashed by the power her sister gave in the hug.

" Welcome home, Princess nike. " A elderly male earth pony with a tan coat, two-tone gray mane and tail, deep green eyes, his name was Geri.

" How was your trip ? Everypony is waiting for you come on, you gotta see them now. ! " Rainbow dash got up and pulled on Fluttershy's hoof, But Fluttershy didn't move from her spot. " What are you doing ? come on everypony is waiting too you after a long time ! " Fluttershy looked back at Discord and Fancy pants who had a confused look on their faces.

" I want you to meet someone before we go " Rainbow dash looked at the misshaped creature and the male unicorn standing beside him.

" Um, is this the Rain king and company ? " Rainbow dash said looking closely at both of them. " Listen up, our country ? It doesn't have much to offer. You might think it's boring, but have respect for what we do, okay ? " Rainbow dash said with a fears attitude.

" If nothing else, we have much in the way of nature. " Geri said with a little chuckle that elders usually have. Discord and Fancy pants didn't expect of the Sunlight kingdom at all.

" So laid back " Both thought. Discord whispered quietly in Fancy pants ear.

" Hey, I thought you said they were the descendants of that legend ! " Fancy pants letted out a sigh and said.

" That's what the documents say ! " Fluttershy looked at Rainbow dash and Geri, they were wearing improper welcomes clothes. Rainbow dash was wearing a silver royal guard armor and Geri was wearing a old brown attire.

" What are you two wearing ? " Fluttershy said. Rainbow dash looked at her armor and said.

" This is my best formal armor. Did you forget that already ? " Discord was watching the scene between family reunion, but got bored sooner than he thought.

" Fluttershy, you can catch up later. " Getting back too the reason they came here in the first place.

" That's right ! Rainbow dash, how's grandma ? " Both Rainbow dash and geri placed a hoof on there faces, making a deep sign, making Discord confused by the stance. On top of a big hill was a castle standing there, the castle was most partly red and white, the castle was standing in the middle of a forest with big trees surrounding it. Inside the castle could a laugh be heard as Fluttershy and Discord where visiting Queen amore in the audience chamber.

" Ha, ha, ha, Oh, I'm so embarrassed. " Queen Amore said chuckle at Fluttershy and Discord. " The minute I got back from touring the country, my back gave out. I'm just fine now ! Especially after seeing the face of my darling granddaughter. "

" So does that mean it was just a strained back ? " Fluttershy said thinking about going back to Rain dukedom after hearing it was just a strained back pain.

" What do you mean " Just " ? I thought I was going to die ! " Queen Amore said. Fluttershy buried her hoof in her face and said.

" You won't die ! " Discord was also speechless thinking they went for nothing to the Sunlight kingdom.

" What am I going to tell Feather bangs ? " Discord said out loud.

" But I have wanted to meet you, Rain King. " Turning to Discord. " I am Amore, the previous ruler of Sunlight Kingdom. Thank you for coming so far to see me. " Queen Amore bowed her head before him. " It's a good opportunity. Have a good stay. " Queen amore couldn't finish as the door was opened, standing in the door way was Twillight and Rarity.

" Hey ! The Rain king's here ? " Twilight said.

" Rainbow ! How could you go to meet him without us ? " Rarity said. As the two looked in the room closely they saw a handsome stallion and thought he was the Rain king. With a snap Twilight and rarity were all over Fancy pants.

" No way ! " Rarity said as she looked closely at Fancy pants. " He's so young ! Oh, so handsome ! "

Twilight was looking also at Fancy pant with tons of questions to ask. " What ? You're the sun king ? Not at all like I pictured ! " Discord silently pointed at himself indicating he was the Rain king while Fluttershy buried her face in her mane embarrassed to even look as her sisters continued.

" Oh, if only i'd gone to marry him ! " Rarity said.

" Typiacal ! You have no standards when it comes to stallions. " Twilight said while Fluttershy apologized too Discord.

" Sorry.........I'm really sorry......" Discord was still pointing at himself but the two argued so much with each other that they didn't see it.

" Beg your pardon ? Your problem is you're too picky ! " Rarity said.

" What did you say, you horse dump " Twilight said.

" Who's a horse dump ? Somepony as picky as you will never get married ! " Rarity said making a comeback as Queen Amore pointed at the two headless chickens as she said.

" Fluttershy " Fluttershy understood what she asked and walked towards her sisters.

" Yes, ma'am. "

" That's rich, coming from you ! " Twilight said.

" Sisters, allow me to introduce, " The two sisters stopped fighting as they looked at Fluttershy. " This stallion, The Rain king, Discord. My husband and lifelong partner. " Fluttershy stated pointing at Discord. The two sisters looked at Discord as both said with harmony.

" Huh ? " And later on a bigger on. " HHHHUUUUUHHHHH ? " Fluttershy chuckled a bit as she said.

" Same thing. " Twilight and Rarity closed in on Discord examining him carefully.

" No way ! I don't believe it ! Your a draconequus ! " Twilight said. Rarity looked a little bothered by his appearance and said.

" I don't believe it ! Your kidding, Fluttershy ! I can't believe he's the king of the world, no way ! It's too insane ! " Rarity looked closely at him, touching his fur and mane. " Oh, His mane's so sleek ! "

" No way ! Let me touch ! " Twilight joined Rarity, touching his neck and arms, making Discord uncomfortable.

" Then I want in, too. " Rainbow dash said curious about it too. Rarity lifted him up with her magic as she said.

" I want to dress him up ! call a photographer ! We need a photo session ! "

" Nice idea ! We can do experiments on him too ! I want to know everything about your kind ! " Twilight said joyful.

" Why not ? I want to see him in a dress ! This is gonna be fun " Rainbow dash said laughing. Fluttershy on the other hoof was terrified off what would happen if they go to far, the same was said about Fancy pants with the way he looked.

" S-Sisters ? "

" It's okay, Fluttershy ! Don't worry darling ! " Rarity said as they were leaving the room caring Discord away with there magic. " We'll make some pinups for you, too ! "

" F-Formidable. They didn't allow His Majesty a single word in edgewise. " Fancy pants said.

" Wel, they won't eat him. " Queen Amore said chuckling. " Anyway, Fluttershy. Show him around, would you ? "

" yes, ma'am. Fancy pants, this way. " Fluttershy said, doing what was asked of her.

" Dear me. " Queen Amore said finally some quiet at last as Fluttershy and Fancy pants left.

" Ma'am " A male pegasus said, He has a dark gray coat, amber eyes and a blue-silver mane. His cutie mark is a storm cloud with a lightning bolt descending from it. He was hidden behind one of the door.

" Thunderlane ? What is it ? If you were here, you should have said hello. "

" I was shocked. He really is a monster. " Stepping out of his hiding spot.

" The Rain king ? on the surface, yes. But I if there's any monster like innocence inside him, i don't see it. "

" It's all the same. He'll never set a hoof on his home soil with Fluttershy ever again. I am going to take Fluttershy back. " Thunderlane said.

After the tour with fancy pants was over, Fluttersy went looking for Discord. He was dragged away with her three sisters, but she didn't know where they were, until she found Discord exhausted sitting in a big chair in the fashion chamber of Rarity. " Wow ! " Discord was wearing one of Rarity's white attire's and it looked great on him. " You really do look good in anything ! " Discord got up from his chair

" Of course i do " He was to weak to carry his body and fell on the ground. " I feel so weak......" He said dropping a few pictures from his pocket. Fluttershy picked up the pictures and looked at it, seeing Discord making all kinds of posses with a very dislike look on his face on every picture.

" It looks like they had a lot of fun with you. " With the last strength he had he pushed himself up and said with a very annoyed voice.

" Damn ! What's wrong with your family ? Not only do they not respect me, They actually turned me into their plaything ! That's what i'm supposed to do ! I make other ponies my toys ! I don't want to be a toy myself ! " Discord screamed the last part right into Fluttershy's face as she was forcing herself not to laugh.

" That's an awful thing to say. " She thought.

" M-Majesty. I pray you, try to be as easy on yourself as you can. " Fancy pants said.

" What's wrong ? You don't feel well ? " Fluttershy asked.

" My body just feels heavy. " Discord said.

" The truth is, I've had a terrible headache all this time, too. " Fancy pants moved a hoof to his head, feeling the headache. " The retainers who came ashore have all complained of the same symptoms. " Fluttershy know what was going on as explained it to them.

" The air pressure is a lot lower here. I guess it's hard if you're not used to it. " Fluttershy said.

" Send the retainers back to the ship. Order them to get some distance and wait on the open sea for a while. " Discord said solving the problem.

" Yes, sir. " Fancy pants was about to leave when Fluttershy stopped him.

" Fancy pants, you can rest in your room. " Fluttershy said. " I'll let them know. " Fluttershy left the room and shut the door behind her. " I'm starting to think I shouldn't have brought Discord. "

" Flutters, How's the devil ? " Rainbow dash said as she flew by to check. " We were supposed to have a welcome banquet for him tonight. "

" Ah, That might be difficult. " Thinking that Discord wasn't in any condition to have a party.

" So it's true that this climate is hard on outsiders. I wish we could help him relax somehow. " Rainbow dash flew past her and said before leaving. " Well, I'll give the order. "

" Oh, Then i'll- " Fluttershy couldn't finish as Rainbow interrupted her.

" You stay with the demon. Right, " Missus " ? " Rainbow dash stormed came right back to face her in the eyes. " If he does anything and i mean anything, call me immediately, okay ? " Rainbow dash flew as fast as she could away leaving Fluttershy speechless.

" M-Missus ? " Was everything she could say, not knowing what that meant.

As night fell, Discord awoke from his sleep feeling a lot better than before, as he listened carefully he could hear something. " A song ? " Discord went out his room to look where that music came from, but as he set a hoof outside his room he saw a sky full of small lights shining in the black sky. " Why is the sky.......clear ? " He never thought that it could be so bright even if it was night. As Discord looked at the stars, Fluttershy was carrying a pot in her hoofs as she flew towards Discord.

" Ah. Feeling better ? " Discord looked at her and said with a surprised look on his face.

" Forget that ! The clouds ! " Discord pointed in the sky. " The clouds are gone ! "

" Yeah, It's Cloud Scattering. " Fluttershy told him.

" Cloud Scattering ? "

" It's only temporary and we can't do it all the time, but they wanted you to at least enjoy the stars tonight. My sisters and my relatives are doing it for me. " Discord looked once more at the stars as Fluttershy placed the pot she carried on the railing in front of them.

" How clever. " Discord said.

" You weren't expecting to see stars, huh ? " Fluttershy said looking at the stars also. Discord noticed the pot Fluttershy was carrying and asked.

" So what's that you've got ? "

" It's hard to give it to you now that you're feeling better. Um..... and it's a lot more modest than what you get in the kingdom, but i made you rice porridge. " Feeling a little blush coming up in her cheeks.

" You can cook ? "

" Everypony can cook in our country. They can split wood and draw water, too. Anyway, try some. " Discord took a spoon and took some of the rice porridge in his mouth.

" It's good ! "

" Really ? "

" It's rather sweet and unique, but it goes down well. " Discord said.

" Yeah. I used herbs I picked myself. I'm so glad you like at least one thing about my country. " Smiling deeply at Discord, making him blush too.

" I-I never said I didn't like it. "

" Well, I thought you might be regretting coming here. You were in such a bad mood before. "

" Well, your sisters did scare the crap out of me a little. But..... your family's here, and this land, the sun....even if you can't see the stars at night, it's a part of what made you who you are. It goes beyond " like " and " don't like. " That's right. This emotion....It's " gratitude " I guess. " As Discord said Fluttershy felt a feeling stir inside her.

" In that moment, Felt something quickly run through my body..... " Fluttershy leaned forward closing her eyes as she kissed Discord on the lips. Discord closed his eyes and took in the kiss, moving his fingers in her mane and leaning in the kiss. " An emotion i'd never felt before. " As Discord opened his eyes.

" Fluttershy....."

" Majesty ! " Fancy pants called from inside Discord's room, turning the lights on.

" He's calling you. " Fluttershy said.

" Okay, I'll go, then. " discord moved back inside leaving Fluttershy outside.

As Fancy pants saw Discord he got relieved and said " Is this where you are ? " But looking closer at Discord's he could see his head was as red a a tomato literary. " Wh-What happened ? Your face ? "

" Fancy pants. It's bad. The stars look so incredibly pretty to me. " Back on Fluttershy's side. Fluttershy was also blushing like crazy.

" Wh-What was that, just now ? " Thinking about the kiss she gave him. " M-My body just moved on its own.......What is this feeling.......This emotion ? " Curling up in a little ball from embarrassment. Fluttershy didn't know that Thunderlane was watching her from the shadows behind the corner of the walls.

Author's Note

I used a little scene from the movie inside out i thought is was funny to use that in this chapter.

Farewell Sun part 1

The next morning at sunrise Fluttershy went to help out with some of the chores around the castle, like cutting wood. She wanted to keep her mind of yesterdays event with Discord. Fluttershy took the axe in her mouth and chopped the piece of wood in one swing. Rainbow dash was surprised too see that Fluttershy had quite a lot of strength in her.

" Fluttershy, you okay with that ? " Rainbow dash was a little scared if Fluttershy wouldn't get hurt doing this kind of chore. Fluttershy was about to hit the piece of wood again when she finally noticed Rainbow dash flying next to her with wood in her hooves.

" Huh ? When did you get here ? " Fluttershy said dropping the axe leaning almost on her hooves.

" That's some impressive cutting ! " Rainbow dash said looking at the piece of wood Fluttershy cut already. Rainbow dash got a other chore for her and Fluttershy to do, she didn't want Fluttershy to swing a dangerous weapon that could likely kill somepony if they got to close around like that.

" Today's the Rain king's welcome feast, and all..... " Rainbow dash said as she and Fluttershy were pealing potatoes in the kitchen. " So we can never have too much firewood...... " Rainbow dash looked at Fluttershy if she was doing right, but seeing three baskets full with pealed potatoes behind Fluttershy. " You know, we don't need that many potatoes. " Fluttershy got carried away with the pealing but her mind was somewhere els today, and she couldn't get it out off her head. Rainbow dash sent her away to relax a bit, but it didn't help as Fluttershy wandered around the castle halls.

" It's so strange. Ever since last night...... " Fluttershy said to herself, thinking about the kiss made her completely red, she tried the breathing exorcises that Twilight learned her to do in situations like this one. Fluttershy breathe in and out, but all she could think of was the kiss she shared with Discord. " C-Calm down ! You've done it with him a lot, haven't you ? " Fluttershy said to herself. " Be calm. Be very calm. If my heart keeps pounding like this, I won't be able to hold out much longer. " Fluttershy got finally calmed down as she approached Discord's room. Fluttershy opened the door and said. " Discord, i'm coming in. " But as she looked at Discord being naked she completely lost it and screamed her longs out with red al over her face. Discord was trying to put his clothes on, but the screaming Fluttershy wasn't making it easier.

" Hey ! Don't open the door so suddenly ! " But soon reality hit him. " Wait ! We normally don't wear clothes, so what are you screaming for ? " Discord said but Fluttershy wasn't listening as she covered her eyes with her wings and turned around facing the wall.

" I-I-Im sorry, I-I d-didn't see anything ! I'm Here.....f-for the middle of the afternoon......put on some pants ! Please ! " Fluttershy knows that pony's usually don't wear clothes, but Discord is alway dress in royal attires that it was rare for her to see Discord with out it.

" But I'm used to seeing Discord naked, aren't I ? " Fluttershy thought to herself as she hide herself in the corner of the room, blushing like crazy. Discord couldn't help but chuckle at the sight of Fluttershy's out burst of embarrassment as he puts on some clothes for her seek.

" I went for a walk, but I got sunburnt, so i came back. " Fluttershy took a little peak seeing that he was standing behind her. Discord took this opportunity to have a little bit of fun with his embarrassed little wife, Fluttershy was starting to shake as Discord moved his claw though her mane playing with the stings of hair between his claw. " Capes and parasols really are useless against this heat. " Discord said as he whispered the word in Fluttershy's ear. " How about taking a stroll around the castle, together ? " Discord said was he looked deeply in Fluttershy's eyes. Fluttershy's heart could burst out any minute now as she said with a trembling voice.

'Y-You want t-to take a w-w-alk together ? " Fluttershy cover her eyes with her hooves, if she starred at those red piercing eyes of him a second longer she could die of a heart attack. " I can bring a proper sun umbrella, then " Discord thought for a second that Fluttershy was making fun of him that he used the wrong kinds of method for protecting him against the sun, but it was kind of cute that he could see Fluttershy so flustered for a chance.

" R-Right. "

Fluttershy and Discord went to take a walk around the castle, as Fluttershy opened a big red umbrella holding it tight with her hoof. Discord looked closely at the material of the umbrella, seeing that the light of the sun didn't got though the material. " I see, It's repelling the light. " Discord said.

" Yeah, It's coated in a substance made from the fermented pulp of compressed fruits. It makes it that much heavier, though. Want to carry it ? " Fluttershy said as she couldn't hold up the umbrella to Discord's hight, even if she flew up there herself with the umbrella being so heavy.

" If i carried it, you'd probably get a sunburn. " Discord said with him being so tall and all.

" I-I guess, but i'm used to the heat by now. " As Fluttershy thought looking at her hooves shyly. " I-I can't keep the dialogue going. " Discord wanted to break the silence, but didn't know how to as he looked at her. Discord grabbed Fluttershy and the umbrella, carrying her bride style making both of them blush slightly.

" I'm sorry about....this, but at least both of us won't be burnt by the sun. " Discord said as he started to walk. " And i'm sorry about..... that. " Discord said.

" "That " ? " Fluttershy asked.

" About threatening to burn your country to the ground. " Discord said as memories filled his head and Fluttershy's. It was about the time that Discord lost control over his anger and imprisoned Feather bangs for flirting with Fluttershy.

" Oh, that's right, You did. "

" I'm glad this is a sunny and hot country. " Fluttershy looked confused at him just a minute ago he was complaining about the weather it self. Discord looked at Fluttershy who looked like a little filly in his arms. " You're so close to me. " Discord said as he looked at her. Fluttershy tried to hide behind her hooves as she said.

" We were together in the Rain Kingdom, too, weren't we ? "

" I can't express it well......When we're under the covered skies, you look so sad. Sometimes i think you might just wash away with the rain. It's such a sad, blinding scene and yet...... it's strangely heartbreaking. Here, we're closed in by the warmth. Like there's no one but us in the world. " Discord pressed his head against Flutershy's head and said. " it's like freedom and i never want to lose it. " The moment lasted not long as a sound of a snapped twig was heard.

" Fluttershy ! " The voice said. Fluttershy looked at the pony standing under a blue umbrella.

" Thunderlane ! It's been so long. " Flutterhy flew out of Discord's hold, towards Thunderlane. " That's right, so you're back, too ? " Fluttershy faced Discord again and said. " This is my cousin, Thunderlane. He'd been traveling the country with grandma until recently. " Thunderlane closed his umbrella and bowed his head towards Discord.

" O, great Rain King. It is our deepest honor to have you in our presence. " Thunderlane said.

" You're as earnest as ever, I see. " Fluttershy said.

" This is normal. You and your sisters are just too frank, Fluttershy. " Thunderlane said rising his head, looking at Discord intensely. Discord on the other hoof didn't like the way he looked at him.

" By the way, what are you doing in a place like this ? " Fluttershy asked.

" The King wanted to take a walk, so I came with him. " Thunderlane said as he pointed at King Sombra hiding behind a tree, King Sombra cleared his voice and came out of his hiding spot.

" It's fine, it's fine. " King Sombra said taking a deep breath. " My own Daughter has forgotten all about me, that's all " King Sombra said with a strict look in his eyes. Fluttershy forgot all about introducing Discord to her father or her mother. Discord on the other hoof was nervous as he could be and you could clearly see it as Discord popped in front of King Sombra with flowers in his paw.

" W-Well, Father ! I-I was just thinking I should introduce myself ! " Shaking as a leaf as Discord introduced himself.

" F-Father ! It's been so long ! " Fluttershy joined the crazy event also shaking as a leaf, nervous about what he would think of Discord. King Sombra invited Fluttershy and Discord for a cup of tea in the dining room as they spent time talking with each other.

" Well, I hope you'll excuse me. I am the king of Sunlight Kingdom, King Sombra. A pleasure. " King Sombra said bowing his head in respect before Discord.

" N-Not at all ! Please forgive my rudeness. " Bowing also before King Sombra. Discord was quite nervous to meet Fluttershy's father for the fist time.

" No, don't worry. Honesty, I just carry the title of the King, and I'm just the son-in-law. It's actually Fluttershy's grandmother who really controls things. Queen Amore is like the Spiritual Fulcrum for the ponies of our Kingdom. She first took the throne when she was not much older than Fluttershy. At the time, there was a certain amount of drought around the world, and our country was at the center of attention..... We had always been a small country, and many ponies were passionate that this was our chance to expand into the world, but she knew better. By closing our borders and forbidden even the slightest contact with the outside world, she protected out secret talent. She prevented our " Power " from getting mixed up in ugly wars. I mostly deal with the ugly stuff so that my family would never experience the terrors that comes form it. Queen Amore makes no mistakes in her actions. " King Sombra said.

" That's right, she's always righteous ! " Fluttershy said proudly.

" And I.... in her absence, acted selfishly..... " thinking about the little game he putted up for choosing a bride for the Rain king ( Chapter 1 ) " And got her very angry with me. " Remembering the outburst when he told her that Fluttershy was getting married to the Rain king for the sake of the Kingdom.

" What ? You sent Fluttershy to get married ? " Queen Amore said bursting up in flames, or at least that's what he remembered. Fluttershy could understand with her grandmother at that time, but see wouldn't have met Discord i it wasn't for her Father.

Rainbow dash was carrying box's of party decorations and hat's as he flew by the dining room and saw Fluttershy and Thunderlane. " Fluttershy, Thunderlane ! If you're here, you should help out ! "

" I'm Sorry Rainbow, I'm coming ! " Fluttershy said before saying goody to Discord. " All right. See you later at the feast tonight, Discord. "

" Right...." Discord said watching them go, but before leaving Thunderlane looked at Discord for a quick moment. Discord didn't like the way he looked at him and got suspicions.

" Thunderlane lost his parents when he was a filly, so he and Fluttershy were raised by Queen Amore. " King Sombra explained. " They're like brother and sister. "

" Pardon me for asking, but where is Fluttershy's mother ? "

" My wife has always been sickly. Even now she's on her sickbed. In addition, Fluttershy and Thunderlane were the black sheep of the royal family. The two of them couldn't call the sunlight at all. Somethings, i thought it might stay that way all their lives. But Fluttershy was different, thanks to Queen Amore's teachings.... She endured the overwhelmingly severe training and became the best singer in the Kingdom. Seeing that she wasn't crushed despite bearing the same handicap, Thunderlane admired her from the bottom of his heart. You could even call it " Adoration. " " King Sombra said.

As night fell the A huge concert was being formed, big lights and colorful lights were shining though the night, a big stage with music instruments and big speaker an the end. The audience was going wild as Rainbow dash came up on and did the entry of the concert, holding a mic and a blue guitar hanging around her neck. " Mares and gentlecolt, sorry to keep you waiting ! With all of our hearts, let's make a warmth light of welcome fall for the Rain King ! Third sister Rainbow dash, with Hot Five ( band name ) will sing......" Awesome as i wanna be "

Hot five
" Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! "

The crowed went wild as Rainbow dash sang and played her guitar.

Rainbow dash
" Awesome as I wanna be "

Backstage Twilight and Rarity were looking jealously at the performance of Rainbow dash together with Fancy pants who had now idea what was going on.

Hot five
" Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! "

" Hey. Who left the planning of the feast to her ? " Twilight said.

Rainbow dash
" Awesome as I wanna be "

" What ? What is that shining thing ? " Fancy pants asked about the lights never have seen something like this.

" First you see me riding on a sonic boom "

" Got my guitar shreddin' up my latest tune"

" There is nothin' you can do to beat me"

" I'm so good that you can't defeat me "

" She wants to make us sing, too ! " Rarity said showing Twilight the program book. as Fancy pants still is shocked by the electronic devices.

Rainbow dash and Hot Five
Yeah, I'm awesome, take caution

Watch out for me, I'm awesome as I wanna be

(Yeah!) I'm awesome, take caution

Watch out for me, I'm awesome as I wanna be

" What's that in her wing ? " Fancy pants said revering to the mic Rainbow dash was holding.

Hot five
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

As Twilight and Rarity looked at the program book, saying that Twilight has to sing " Find a way " And Rarity has to sing " Becoming popular " with a light show surprise. " No! No way ! i'm not doing it ! " Rarity said.

Rainbow dash
Step aside now, you're just gettin' in my way

I got sick chops you could never hope to play

When it comes to makin' music, I'm the ruler

You wish you could be twenty percent cooler

" Are you just going to let it continue ? " Fancy pants said as he looked at the program.

Rainbow dash and Hot five
Yeah, I'm awesome, take caution

" Don't wear the details ! by the way, where's the King ? " Twilight said.

" We brought so many cute thing for him to wear ! " Rarity said showing a red attire with pink heart on it.

Watch out for me, I'm awesome as I wanna be

(Yeah!) I'm awesome, take caution

Watch out for me, I'm awesome as I wanna be!

Discord was hiding in a tree looking at the big light show that was forming in the sky. " Good grief.....I can't slip away with Fluttershy if i get involved with that. " Hearing what the two sisters were saying. Discord looked around the concert and saw that Flutershy was nowhere to be found. " Where did she disappear to ? Fluttershy..... "

In the western side of the castle there was a big tower standing where Thunderlane was sitting in the top of the room burning down some herbs in a pot. Thunderlane was deep in his own thoughts as he looked at the smoke coming from the herbs, thinking back about his past with Fluttershy.

There was this waterfall nearby the castle, Young Flutershy always went their if she was feeling down about something. Sitting on the edge of the cliff with a tree growing on de side of it. " Fluttershy. Eat this " Young Thunderlane had a peace in he wing and in the other where more peaces to be found. " Your voice is hoarse from over practice. "

" So many.....thank you. But i don't need it. " Young Fluttershy said with a hoarse voice. Thunderland placed a hoof on Fluttershy's head patting her to make her feel batter.

" It's okay. I know you'll be able to call the sun, Fluttershy. " Thunderlane said with a kind smile on his face.

Thunderlane's thoughts were broken as her heard the door open and hoof steps coming closer.

" Why did you call me to a place like this ? if you don't mind asking ? " Fluttershy said walking up to Thunderlane. " It's rare for you to ask for my advice. "

" No, it's not about advice. I just wanted to talk with you in private. " Thunderlane threw in some special kind of herbs in the pot with the others as it burned quickly into asses.

" Really ? I wanted to talk to you, too ! The last time I saw you was just before you left the Kingdom. "

" I was surprised when I came back you weren't here. " Thunderlane said watching the herbs burn.

" Yeah. It was so sudden, after all....."

" If I had been here......" Thunderlane interrupted Fluttershy raising his voice. " I wouldn't have let you go ! " Surprising Fluttershy because Thunderlane never raised his voice to her.

" Thunderlane ? " A little worried what was going on with Thunderlane.

" Are you oaky with this ? Being married off ? Made into a sacrifice to appease that Kingdom ? " Fluttershy was a little scared by the way Thunderlane acted.

" It's not like that ! I......" But Thunderlane interrupted Fluttrehsy again.

" Are you in love with him ? It just looks like playing house to me ! " Thunderlane taught a bit know that Discord is a creature of chaos, everything is a game to him.

" It's true that i was pressured into it, at first, But I started to learn about him in my own way. I saw his weakness and his kindness, and now i want to support him ! I want to stay with him ! " Fluttreshy said. Thunderlane stood up form his seat and faced Fluttershy directly.

" And then..... are you going to become his slave ? That's not love ! The Rain King is just taking advantage of you, because you can't abandon somepony who's damaged ! "

" You're wrong ! "

" You just feel sorry for him because of his sad upbringing, right ? "

" You're wrong ! " Fluttershy stared to raise her own voice as she said it. Thunderlane grabbed her hoof and made her look at him.

" If i'm wrong.....Have you ever made love to him ? Have you ever felt....." Futtershy couldn't help but tremble as she saw the anger in his eyes. " On fire for him ? ! " But as she tried to get out of Thunderlane's grip her legs started to give out on there own, making her fall on the ground as Thunderlane held her for hooves with his own. Fluttershy's sight went blurry as Thunderlane spoke to her. " An imported herb. " Fluttershy couldn't hear Thunderlane's voice clearly it sounded as it was coming from far away. " It works quickly on those who haven't built up an immunity. "

Before the darkness consumed her she spoke her last words out " Dis..... cord......" Before she fell into a deep sleep. Thunderlane caught her before falling down on the ground and carried her on his back before saying.

" Don't worry. By the time you wake up, it'll all be over. Isn't that right, Grandma ? " Queen Amore was standing in the back of the room as moonlight showed her face in the darkness.

After the concert Discord was asked to meet Sunburst the royal adviser regarding Fluttreshy's absence. Sunburst was a unicorn with a brilliant gamboge coat and a vivid and brilliant vermillion mane.

" Sick ? " Discord said as he was talking to Sunburst. " Fluttershy is ? "

" Last night, she was struck by a sudden fever. " Sunburst said pouring in some tea for Discord and Fancy pants. ' It seems to be a local disease. She could end up in bed for a month. "

" I'll go see her. " Discord said about to leave if Sunburst didn't stop him.

" You mustn't. We can't allow somepony without immunity to see her. " Sunburst said.

" Majesty, awe can't possibly remain here for a month. " Fancy pants said whispering into Discord's ear.

" once she recovers, we'll send her back to Rain Dukedom immediately. " Sunburst said. " I urge you to go ahead of her, Majesty. "

Meanwhile

Fluttershy was waking up slowly as she opened her eyes seeing that she was in a wooden cel. She looked around if she recognized the place, but a voice answered her unspoken question. " The Black Lotus Tower. " Fluttershy looked closer at the pony standing on the other side of the wooden door. " I'm shocked. I thought you wouldn't wake up for a while yet. " Thunderlane said looking down on.

Fluttershy was trying to get up. " What are you doi- " But her body felt paralyzed as she struggled to move forward.

" It's better not to move. " Thunderlane said sitting on the floor in front of the wooden cel.

" This is the tower where they put royalty who have broken the law. Why am i here ? " Fluttershy asked.

" You haven't broken any law. there's a barrier here that restrains our power. We just need you to stay here until it's all over. "

" What do you mean " It " ? What are you trying to do ? " Fluttreshy was getting scared at what was going on but at the same time she felt like she could explode with anger. " Thunderlane ! "

" We're going to hypnotize the Rain king. We'll put to rest his attachment to you and give him a change of heart. Then he will nullify your engagement. " With every word Thunderlane was saying Fluttershy's heart shrieked little by little. " We'll use the hypnotism a little bit every night. It will be complete in three day's time. If he sees you before then, the spell will be broken. That's why i need you to stay here. Grandma decided it. "

" What ? Grandma.....I don't understand. What about the changelings ? If we cut off the engagement, Discord won't help us defend the Kingdom from them. "

" You don't understand ? The Changelings have changed since you have been gone, their good now. Fluttershy, we need you to stay in this country, support it, and protect our secret art. " Thunderlane puts his hoof against fluttershy's cheek as he watch her tremble in fear. " That's the reason, I've been watching over you all this time. " Fluttershy backed away from him.

" Thunderlane ? "

" It wasn't right to give you to a monster like that ! "

Back in the Castle.

Sunburst and the three sisters were discussing the plan as Discord and Fancy pants waited in the other room.

" I offered him tea laced with myrrh. He should be deep asleep by now. "

" Sunburst...... You're really going to do this ? " Twilight asked.

" I will handle the hypnosis. I implore Your highnesses to make up your own minds. "

" I feel bad for Fluttershy, but this is important, too, right ? " Rarity said.

" But... We greeted him like friends. To tear him away from Fluttershy like this....." Twilight said feeling guilty.

" I know that, but there's nothing else we can do ! " Sunburst was about to go as Rainbow dash couldn't help but do something about this situation and followed Sunburst.

As Sunburst looked in the room were he felt Discord and fancy pants, they were fast asleep as Sunburst predicted. Sunburst went to the sleeping Discord who was sleeping in the chair leaning against the back.

" My. He looks so innocent when he's asleep. " Sunburst placed his horn against Discord's head and spoke hypnotic word's out. " Ruinous Rain king, your memories lie beyond the mist. " But As Sunburst was about to cast the spell Discord opened his eyes surprising Sunburst. Discord snapped his fingers and a sword appeared before him, taking the sword and putting it against Sunburst neck.

" Stay where you are ! " Discord said.

" You ! The medicine...." Sunburst said shocked.

" I never even tasted what you gave me ! Fancy pants ! " Fancy pants stood up from his sleeping form, surprising Sunburst more.

In a panic Sunburst yelled " S-Somepony come here at once ! The Rain King has lost his mind ! " Guards came running in and saw that the royal advisor was in danger.

" Advisor Sunburst ! " The guards said. They were going to attack the Rain king but Fancy pants used his magic to hold of the guards. Sunburst was able to escape Discord's sword as he teleported himself to safety.

" Tell Grandmother ! " The said to the Guards. Fancy pants said how many guards there were and said.

" Majesty ! "

" Got It ! " Discord flew out of the window, down into the bushes.

" He flew downstairs. " One of the guards said. " After him. "

" You'll need to get throught me, first ! " Fancy pants said blocking the way. Discord looked carefully around if anyone could see him, but he was soon discovered by Rainbow dash indicating that he should follow her to safety. Trusting his guts he took the risk and followed her into a underground cafe.

" It's slippery, so be careful " Rainbow dash said holding torch in her hoofs as she flew down the staircase.

" An underground passage ? It's a it like the one in the palace, I suppose. " Discord said looking at the long dark hall ways the underground passage has.

" The Black lotus tower where Fluttershy's being held is through here, But you you'll need Grandma's key to get inside. "

" Just as i thought, that old granny is behind this. "

" I'm sorry. None of us can go against her decisions. "

" No, i actually find it amazing that she can achieve this kind of control over ponies without employing the politics of fear. Will you be okay ? " Rainbow dash stopped flying and looked at Discord.

" Who knows ? I'm doing this for Fluttershy, not you, just so you know ! They might gang up on me if they find out about it. They all do whatever grandma says. But.....I want to think for myself. Even if the answer I reach is different from my Grandma's. I want to follow it. " Discord couldn't help but laugh as he heard this.

" You two really are sisters. You're so brave. " Discord and Rainbow dash finally reached the Black lotus tower.

" Is that it ? " Discord asked as he looked at the big tower.

" Be careful. If word gets out that Sunburst failed, she might try to make a move personally. " Thunder clouds were forming above the dark blue sky for the first time in history. As a thunder strikes the ground on a mountain, Queen Amore could be seen in it as she was standing behind Discord.

" You work quickly, Rain King ! " Queen Amore said. Discord didn't hesitated for a moment and place his sword against Queen Amores neck.

" I was hoping to meet the mastermind ! " Discord said. Queen amore didn't even blink at the sword came to het throat instead she didn't anything at all, but the sword broke in have by power she had.

" When did you realize it ? " Queen Amore asked.

" From the start. " Discord said throwing the broken sword away. " Somepony as formidable as you, calling back your engaged granddaughter over a strained back ? You were after Fluttershy from the start. "

" You're certainly a bright one. Let's go elsewhere. Come with me. " Queen amore went to the lake outside the castle ground where a pier was placed in the middle of the lake to the end of it. " I miscalculated. I didn't know you were this obsessed with Fluttershy. You'e making me work harder than I expected. " Queen amore said walking on the pier with Discord behind her.

" Serves you right. " Queen Amore stopped at the middle of the pier and made a big key appear with her magic.

" This key is imbued with my magic. no one can enter or leave the tower without it. " Queen amore threw the key in the lake without any warning.

" What ? " Discord watched as it was thrown in the lake.

" I will not give Fluttershy up ! Even if you are the king of the world, that refers only to the world of creatures. She can alter the world itself. If she wished it, she can call down it's terrible wrath. Can you swear that you will not make use of it ? How about your children and descendants ? " Discord wring his paw/claw and jumped in the lake. The lake wasn't as deep as he thought as the water only hits his legs.

" Ma'am, you speak righteously. But i am, as you say, the king of creatures, so i'm less concerned with future than i am with what i want in the present ! What i want, i always get. " Discord said smiling devilish at Queen Amore. " She is my mare ! " Queen Amore used her power to make dark clouds appear as she said.

" Our negotiations have broken down, but in deference to your spirit, i will give you one chance. " The dark clouds dropped rain faster than lighting it self filling the lake with water from the rain. " If you can find the key I dropped, i will let you take Fluttershy back. " Discord started to look around feeling the grounds for the key but their was so much mud and it was too dark to see anything underwater. " What's wrong ? Rain king, you've stopped looking. If you don't hurry, the lake will soon be over your head. " Queen Amore said as she looked at Discord struggling to find the key.

" You damned old granny...... " Discord said getting frustrated.

Meanwhile

In the Black lotus tower Flutershy looked at the window seeing that lightning was getting closer and closer, she was surprised that it was raining outside. Her family could do Rain-Summoning but they only use it in the dry sessions. Another lightning strike was heard. " That one was close. I wonder who summoned that lightning. " Fluttershy looked over her shoulder seeing that Thunderlane was still watching her outside the wooden cel. " To a monster like that, " he said...... " Thinking about the time she had to face a heavenly mission in order to get married. " I wish i'd brought that ring. " Fluttershy was about to cry as she thought about the plan her grandma was about to do, she gripped her heart as it was in so much pain. " Discord will lose his memory ? " But as she thought about all the times he fought for her, she was willingly to do the same.

By the lake.

Discord was out of breath as he kept looking in the water, the water has raised to his hips by now.

" Do you understand now ? " Queen Amore said watching Discord heavily. " It's not possible to find that key. if you admit defeat, i'll let you out right now. " Discord couldn't give up now, he had to save Fluttershy.

" Shut up ! " Discord said as he continued searching. The three royal sisters and some of the guards were running to Queen amore and saw that Discord was searching the ground of the lake desperately.

" You are the beast who has ascended to rule over the world. You don't want to die over something so trivial, do you ? "

" Something so trivial ? Losing my future life with Fluttershy would be the same as dying ! " Discord said continuing to search but as a huge rock fell of a cliff and into the lake it created a big wave heading towards Discord. The three sisters tried to warn him but it was to late. Discord was washed away by the big wave, being pulled underwater by the force dragged away. " Fluttershy....."

Meanwhile.

Fluttershy took a sprint and slammed herself against the wooden door, hurting her shoulder in the process, but she couldn't careless about the pain she had to get out. Fluttershy took a few steps back and tried it again. Thunderlane begged her to stop but she didn't listen. " Stop it ! What are you doing ? ! " Fluttersy slammed herself against the wooden door but it didn't break.

" Getting out of here ! " Fluttershy said with heavy voice. Fluttershy tried it again and again.

" Don't be ridiculous ! what can you do without your powers ? What you're doing is pointless ! " Their was the sound of a bang overtime Fluttershy slammed herself into the wooden door, her whole body was in pain as she slammed herself over and over into the door.

" I'm leaving ! " As this continued Thunderlane remembered a time Fluttershy pushed herself past the limit of her own body,

Thunderlane and Queen Amore were making baskets out of straws.

" Grandma, did Fluttershy collapse again ? " Young Thunderlane asked.

" She overapplied herself at her training. she'll remain stubborn until she gets it right. " Queen Amore said.

" It would be easier on he if she just gave up. " Young Thunderlane said.

" For Fluttershy, that would be even more painful, i expect. " Queen Amore said.

Thunderlane couldn't hold back the tears as they ran down his face. " Stop it ! " He yelled before another slam was heard against the door. " Don't you realize what you're doing ? To go back on grandmother's decisions is akin to treason ! This won't be forgiven ! " Thunderlane said as Fluttershy rested on the wooden door. Thunderlane finally noticed that Fluttershy's head was bleeding by slamming herself to hard on the door creating a wound on her head making the blood drip on the floor.

" I don't care if it's forgiven. " Fluttershy said breathing heavily, exhausted and in pain. " Thunderlane.....just now....." Fluttershy looked in his eyes, seeing that blood was running down her face. " I feel like i realized.... what you meant. " Fluttershy backed away again ready to slam against to door again. " When i think about losing him, i can't top shaking. i think what Grandma said is righteous. " The sound of a slam was heard and by that Fluttershy felt to the ground with her back against the door. " And yet, I......Even if it turns everypony who raised me against me....." Fluttershy tried to lift herself up again holding onto the door for grip. " I can't possibly.....give up....... " With tears in her eyes. " Because..... Love him ! "

Farewell Sun Part 2

" Fluttershy was like me, but different. I gave up, and she...... " A bang sound was heard, Thunderlane snapped out of his thoughts back to reality. Fluttershy was breathing heavily, blood running down her face as tears fell to the ground from teary eyes. " I can't possibly..... give up......" Fluttershy gave a weak smile as she said. " Because.....I love him ! " Thunderlane was speechless all he could do was watch as he looked in her cyan eyes filled with tears.

" So....the feeling, like being on fire........ " Thunderlane couldn't do anything to stop her, and he know that. Thunderlane took the key and unlocked Fluttershy's cel, opening the door for her. " I can't stand to see you hurt yourself anymore. " Thunderlane avoided Fluttershy's gaze. " I'll treat your wounds. " As he turned around, Fluttershy got her voice back.

" Thunderlane. i'm going. " Walking out the cel.

Thunderlane never turned his back as he said. " I can't let you go like that. " Grabbing a piece of gauze and rapping it around Fluttershy's head to cover up the wound. Thunderlane grabbed the key he had and placed it around Fluttershy's neck. " Go out the back. That key will work if you use it from the inside. " Fluttershy wanted to say something, but Thunderlane turned his back to her again. " Go. It's too hard for me to look at you right now. "

Fluttershy turned to head out, but before she leaved she said. " Thank you, Thunderlane. " Running down the staircase of the tower as she opened the back door of the bottom of the tower. Fluttershy went through the back door that leaded out in the forest next to the castle. Fluttershy looked around her seeing Rainbow dash flying towards her in the rain.

" Fluttershy ! "

" Rainbow dash ! " Fluttershy ran towards her sister.

" I can't believe you got out. " Rainbow dash said hugging her sister. Rainbow dash looked closely and saw that Fluttershy was completely covered in bruises and her head rapped up in a gauze. " How did you get hurt ? "

" I'm fine. How's Discord ? Did the hypnotism....." Fluttershy looked with worried eyes at Rainbow, but before she could continue Rainbow said.

" It failed. " Fluttershy took the time to breath but Rainbow know that the hard part was coming next. " But.... he had a fight with Grandma....." Making Fluttershy gasp. Rainbow dash explained what happened with Discord and Queen Amore but the news wasn't good as Fluttershy flew down to the lake through the woods in the rain as fast as she could with Rainbow dash close behind. Rainbow dash told her that Discord tried to look for the key that Queen Amore threw into the lake, but he drowned after a big wave appeared. Twilight and Rarity scoped him out of the water, but he didn't breath at all after that.

" When did you become this important to me ? "

Fluttershy made it to the pier as she saw Discord's lifeless body on the pier surrounded by her sisters.

" I thought that i was singing for you. "

Queen Amore was surprised seeing Fluttershy out of the Black lotus tower. Everypony backed away as Fluttershy ran towards Discord, as she touched his face it felt like ice and the worst came up to her.

" But maybe I was wrong. "

But Fluttershy wasn't ready to face reality and began to do CPR on Discord. Pushing her weight on her as she tried to make Discord's heart beat again, By every push a tear dropped from Fluttershy's eyes, she whipped the tears from her eyes she know she couldn't cry now.

" You're the one.......Who let me sing. If i lose you, I won't be able to sing anything anymore."

Everypony looked with worried faces as Fluttershy grabbed his face and gave mouth to mouth, blowing as much air into his longs as possible. As she gave mouth to mouth her tears started to fall again.

" i never knew that a feeling like this could exist in this world. That I had such an intense side to me. "

Fluttershy kept trying, but Discord's heart didn't beat after the CPR she gave him, she couldn't believe it that he was gone and yelled out his name in frustration and sadness, making a fist of her hoof and slammed it down on his chest. " DISCORD ! " After that slam in the chest Discord coughs out a mouth full of water making every pony sign in relieve.

" He came to ! " Rainbow dash said. After he took a time to breathe he slowly opened his eyes and asked.

" What ? " He finally was the crying face of Fluttershy sitting besides him. " Fluttershy, have you...... been crying ? If you're here, it means you worked things out by yourself again. " Discord couldn't help but laugh as he place a claw on his head. " I'm so lame. I was supposed to be the prince in shining armor instead of you. "

Fluttershy couldn't find to laughter in this. " Stop talking ! how can you make a joke like that now ! "

" Are you there, old hag ? " Discord said as he placed his claw on Fluttershy's cheek. " This should shut you up, shouldn't it ? " Discord said as he showed everyone the key he had in his paw, surprising everyone even Queen Amore and Fluttershy. " I win. "

Queen amore know she had lost to her own game and gave a big sigh as she said. " Fool. I've had enough of this. " Queen amore said as she leaved the pier.

After a good nights rest Discord was already up on his feet, but Fluttershy insisted that he would stay in bed. Discord didn't mind the attention from Fluttershy, but he was sick of being in bed all day long. " At least come in bed with me if you're going to keep me in bed " Discord thought as he looked cunning at Fluttershy cleaning his room, but he could clearly see the head bandage from the wound she got trying to get out of the tower, it made him weak seeing her hurt she needed her rest too, but like always she puts others needs in front of her own. In the afternoon Fluttershy's sisters came to visit Discord to how his condition was after the drowning incident.

" I'm sorry ! We did something really awful to you. " Twilight said bowing her head as a sign of apology as Rarity did it too.

" You don't have anything to apologize for. " Discord said as much as he wanted to see them bow before him, it wasn't right to have a grudge on them, they are his family after all.

Twilight was surprised that Discord wasn't angry with them. " But we knew what Grandma was planning for a while. We knew, but we just sat back and watched., so..... " Twilight said.

" Certainly, this is a serious problem. " Fancy pants said standing next Discord's bed. " If we were to let our home country know, some might feel passionately about issuing punishment officially. And...... "

" I'm not saying this because i'm afraid of being punished ! " Rarity said stepping forward. " I'm ashamed about acting in bad faith to Fluttershy's-- to my little sister's beloved ! That's why i'm here ! I want to apologize ! If i need to pay for that, i'll endure anything you ask of me. " Fancy pants was overwhelmed by the brave, strong and generous act this unicorn mare showed him, he never noticed what beauty she had until now and the golden heart that she possessed until now.

" That's right ! So will I ! " Twilight said stepping forward too.

" Anything " ? Discord said with a sly look on his face. " Than be my play toy for all eternity ! " Twilight and Rarity looked at him with disgusted and so did Fluttershy, not believing that he would say such a thing to her sisters like that. Discord on the other hoof was laughing his longs out " Did you really think i would say something like that ! As funny it may sound i already have a perfect doll to play with " Discord said winking at Fluttershy. Discord placed his attention back to the two mares before and putted on his straight face. " I think you girls and Fancy pants are all under a fundamental misunderstanding. this is a personal quarrel. In other words, it's one of those......how do i say this ? " Discord said placing his claw on his chin to think. " Oh ! A mother-daughter squabble ! No, that's not it. Hmm, a grandson-grandmother squabble ? " Discord tried to think hard but the rest was already out of it.

" I-I get the nuance. " Twilights said.

" It's true that the old hag had got some impressive wrath inside her, but i'm the one that won. That's the most important thing. I really don't care about anything besides that. Besides, beautiful mares like you really shouldn't say things like " i'll do anything " so lightly. " Discord clapped his claw/paw together. " Well, it's a good thing for you that i'm not as bad as i look. " As Discord said that Twilight and Rarity couldn't help but laugh.

Two days passed after that. Fluttershy was running through the hallways of the castle looking for Discord. " Where did Discord get to ? He really should relax a little longer." As Fluttershy ran through the hallway she stumbled on Rarity along the way, she was levitating roll's of fabric with her magic probably for her next set of dresses Fluttershy thought. " Rarity ! Have you seen Discord ? "

As Rarity passed her lightly she said with a nervous voice. " N-No, I haven't...... "

" I see. That's a pretty big load. " Fluttershy said as she looked at how much fabric that was. " Can i help you ? Should i carry something ? "

Rarity waved her hoof as she said. " N-No, don't worry about it ! You just find him, quick ! " After that she walked away, leaving Fluttershy confused.

" She was acting pretty aloof. Maybe she's still worried about what happened between Discord and Grandma ? " Fluttershy continued her search for Discord. She decided to look for him in the palace gardens, in the garden was a big oak tree surrounded by flowers and meany little animals like bunny's, squirrels and bird's from all sizes. Fluttershy greeted the animals and asked them if they have seen Discord around here somewhere, before she could get the answer from them a chestnut was threw at her from the big big tree standing behind her. " Aww. What ? ! " She rubbed her head to ease the pain but at the same time she heard a all too familiar laugh coming from the tree. Fluttershy looked at the big oak tree seeing Discord lying on his back on one of the branches. " Discord ! " Fluttershy walked closer to the oak tree to get a better view of Discord.

" Eat up. They're surprisingly really good. " Discord said sitting up straight on his branch.

" Hey. Don't you know the condition of your own body ? Fancy pants been looking for you like a madpony.

" Sleeping all day without any warmth from a certain mare would be a waste. " Discord saw a little blush on the little pegasus mare below him. " We'll only be here a few more days, after all. " Discord turned his attention to his right and looked at the beautiful view of the sea. " Besides, you can see the ocean from here. "

Fluttershy flew up to the branch where Discord sat on, joining him to look at the ocean. " We've got soft light today. It changes how everything looks. isn't it beautiful ? " Fluttershy said as she looked at the view.

Discord looked at the beautiful sight but it wasn't the ocean that he thought was beautiful. The second he looked at her was like a eternity, her pink rose mane breezing throught to wind, her radiant smile that could kill him with it's warmth, her eyes are like a endless depth of the ocean it self. Feeling mesmerized by her radiant beauty Discord couldn't help but touch her hoof feeling like holding it as long as he could, but as soon as they touched each other Fluttershy shock by the sudden touch moving her hoof any from Discord. " Wh-Why did you react that way ? " Discord said a little disappointed that he could hold her hoof.

Fluttershy calmed a little down but the blush on her face was clearly to see. " Because you touched me out of nowhere ! " Fluttershy said.

Discord decided to switch things around. " Hey ! You're the one who kissed me while I was unconscious out of nowhere ! "

" That was mouth-to-mouth resuscitation ! " The blush on Fluttershy grow bigger by the minute. " Wh-Why would i do something like that ? "

Discord leaned a bit forward so that his forehead touched Fluttershy's. " Well, it's fine. " Fluttershy could see right in his red eyes and Discord in her eyes. " You're probably just feeling more conscious of me......you know......as a stallion. " Discord could feel the blush on his cheeks coming as he said that.

Fluttershy could feel her heart pounding right out of her chest and the butterflies in her stomach. " Yeah. My heart pounds so much more when i'm with you. "

Discord was happy to hear those words for a long time but he still couldn't help but too play a little with her. " That's fine ! But i should warn you, you're a bit behind the curve. You're hart pounding is a full lap behind mine. " Discord sat leaning back on one of the branches.

" Give me a break. My heart's giving out. " Fluttershy said but she know what Discord was planning to do and to fire it right back at him, She took his paw and placed in on her chest. " Here, do you feel how much it's pounding right now ? " Discord was surprised to see Fluttershy so bold for one and couldn't help but blush more as he looked at her. Fluttershy know that she got him right where she wanted him and laughed at the cute face Discord made for the first time. Discord couldn't help but too laugh with her but that soon ended with a angry yell from Fancy pants.

" Ma-je-sty !! " Discord and Fluttershy looked down, seeing Fancy pants standing under the oak tree. " And princess Fluttershy, too ! is this really the time to be flirting ? " Discord and Fluttershy left the oak tree too join Fancy pants on the ground. " Your sisters have all been searching for you. It seems i'm being summoned, too. " Fancy pants explained.

" I wonder why. Anyway, let's go. " Fluttershy said before leaving to look for sisters.

" You rest in your room, Majesty. " Fancy pants said to Discord before going after Fluttershy. " You will rest, won't you ? " Fancy pants said Knowing that Discord has a attendance to ignore Fancy pants advises.

" I get it. " Discord said going the opposite direction as the others.

Discord could hear Fancy pants shouting out too Fluttershy " Princess Fluttershy ! Wait for me ! " But all soon Discord finds himself stopped by two suspicious stallions.

" What do you ponies want ? " Discord said with a serious look on his face.

" Hello, there. " A voice came from the garden to his right. Discord saw a cloaked mare sitting in the bushes, her face couldn't be seen but it was obviously a mares voice that Discord heard. " Are you the Rain King ? Would you accompany this old mare somewhere ? " The strange mare said. Before Discord could say something he found himself in a bathtub with stallions cleaning his body, his arms, his chest, his head and even his horns, After the awkward bath he got changed in a black and white pajama's, he found himself in the dressing room of the castle. a big sofa was standing in the middle of the room and a view decorations that every dressing room gotta need.

Discord couldn't believe that he was cleaned and dresses as a play doll only for this strange mares pleasure. " WH-What is all this ? " Discord said getting irritated by the strange mare by the second. " You suddenly kidnap me and put me in the bath...... "

Buy the strange mare didn't listen. " My, oh, my ! Silky hair fresh out of the bath ! " The strange mare said. The strange mare had her laugh and uncloaked herself reviewing her long white horn, her white coat with beautiful white wings and a flowing rainbow mane and tail. " It's so refreshing to see a young stallions reactions. " Discord was captivating by the beauty the strange mare had. " I've only had girls, you see. "

Discord could have sworn that he recognizes her from somewhere, but where ? " You're......"

One of the stallions that escorted the strange mare said. " Rain king, this is the reigning Queen, Celestia. She is Princess Fluttershy's mother. "

Discord was speechless. " Sh-She's beautiful. Not as Beautiful as Fluttershy, but....." Discord tried to focus and coughs a little. " Ugh. Forgive my rudeness. I heard that you were in poor health. "

" I've been feeling much better lately. Though the truth is, i feel a trace of anemia coming on. " Queen Celestia said with a smile on her face.

The escorts of Queen Celestia had a worried look on there face when they heard that. " Not Again ! My lady ! You must get to bed at once ! "

" No, no ! That overprotectiveness is the reason that i never have any fun ! " Queen Celestia said pouting like a little foal. " Besides, there's something i need to discuss with you. " Queen Celestia walked to the sofa in the room to sit quietly and to talk easily. " It's important. It's about Fluttershy. "

Discord took place on the other side of the coffee table a cross from Celestia. " Oh ? You're going to say it, too ? " Give back Fluttershy. "

" I know that Fluttershy's Grandmother used very heavy measures to bring her back. Fluttershy is extremely special, you see. "

" Special ? " Celestia's face expression change reapply to a sad and concerned expression.

" Yes. " The ponies of the sun cracked the heavens, destroyed one land and three countries. " That's one part of the poet's saga, but it really happened in the past. We can't do that much these days, of course...... " Discord listened with all his mind to celestials story. " However, there's a secret art inherited only by the greatest singer in the Sunlight Kingdom. I've hear that its power defies imagining. "

" Sounds Dangerous. "

" What can be done ? The blessing and the curse are as one. They cannot be separated. our power in fundamentally not a gentle thing. Despite being the king, my dear husband is so ill-informed about such things. I can't hold it against him for sending Fluttershy off to get married for the good of the kingdom. Oh, but he's not as incompetent as everypony thinks, you know. "

" O-Of course "

" If Fluttershy's powers were given to you or another great power, it would bring disaster to the world. It would be safer to keep her here, wouldn't it ? " Celestia said.

After listening Discord got the pieces of puzzle together, what she was trying to saw is that i am danger to Fluttershy and that she thinks i will use her for my own conquest to take over the world. " You're wrong. " Discord said surprising Celestia. " If you ask me, staying in a small, weak country like this would be more dangerous for her. The safest place for Fluttershy is with me. Let her stay with me and I'll protect her for the rest of my life. It's simple, isn't it ? "

Celestia was happy to see that her husband chose a good stallion for their daughter after all. " Yes, it is. Destiny is a mysterious thing. It lets ponies reach their intended destinations. You were the only creature in the whole wide world who could be a match for Fluttershy. "

One of the escorts placed a wooden box on the coffee table before them. " My lady, the preparations are complete. "

" Thank you " Celestia opened the box and showed Discord what's inside of it. It was a black and crimson tuxedo with a golden neckless with the royal seal of the Sunlight Kingdom on it. " Discord, come here for a moments. " Celestia took the tuxedo and placed it in front of him to see in it looked good on him. " Yes, I knew this color would be just right ! I asked my daughter Rarity to make this for you. Here, turn around. " Discord did as he was told and puts on the suit. " The height is just fine, too. Rarity worked so hard at modifying it by hoof. We didn't have any clothing for such a big son-in-law, after all. "

Discord was a little confused why he was doing this and asked. " What is this ? "

" I know it's humble compared to the one you two will be engaged in some day, but my beloved daughter is getting married. Shouldn't we want to celebrate it in our way ? " Celestia took the golden seal neckless and putted around Discord's neck but the antlers were to big so Discord snapped his fingers and the neckless was around his neck. " There ! It's all done ! " Celestia said taking a good look at Discord all dressed up in his new tuxedo. " It looks so good on you ! " Celestia said. Celestia and Discord were interrupted by a maid from the castle looking for Queen Celestia.

" My Lady ! " Celestia looked at the door opening as know already why she was here for.

" It sounds like her preparations are also complete ? Then, shall we go ? To the place where your bride awaits. " Celestia said walking towards the door.

As Discord and Celestia went to the room next door, they saw Fluttershy wearing a white and light green dress that looked like a lotus flower on the water and a white butterfly on her chest holding the dress in place, with her mane tight up back with a lotus flower on top as Rarity worked on the final adjustments of the dress. Discord couldn't take his eyes of her as she was staring at him, her face started to glow as she smiled at him. " Discord ! " Fluttershy came to take a closer look as she looked at Discord's tuxedo, forgetting that Rarity was still working on her dress .

" Oh ! dear, stand still ! " Rarity said as she followed Fluttershy.

" You really do look good in anything ! " Fluttershy said.

Fancy pants who was in the room to check if everything was going smoothly with the dress fitting of Rarity's design. " Princess Fluttershy ! Please, do not move around so much. Did you forget how hard Rarity worked to dress you like that ? "

Rarity was feeling a bit happy that her heart beated faster for some reason. " Oh. Please do't be so stiff, Fancy pants. It's quite alright. What do you think ? Discord. How does it look on Fluttershy ? " Rarity asked.

Fluttershy looked at Discord to hear his anger but all that she could see was a blushed face that Discord made. " Discord ? " all soon Fluttershy understood the situation she was in and also blush uncontrollably.

" My, my. " Celestia said as she watched the two blush. " He's at a loss for words ! How cute ! " Celestia said teasing Discord a bit.

Fluttershy just now noticed her mother in the room and was surprised to see her. " Mother ! Is it all right for you to be out here ? "

" It's fine ! Now forget that and let me look at you ! " Celestia moved closer to her daughter and took a good look at her. " You're beutiful, Fluttershy. You've become a splendid lady. "

The words of her mother made tears swell up in her eyes as she said. " Mother ! "

Celestia whipped away the tears in Fluttershy's eyes. " Now, now, no tears. Not after Rarity got you looking so pretty. " After the little visit Celestia made, Queen Celestia had to rest for the rest of the day, leaving Discord and Futtershy as she waved goodby too them.

Fluttershy choose to tell Discord the story behind her mothers bad healthy. " When mother gave birth to me, it damaged her body badly. After that, she could barely call the moon at all anymore, that's why my father does it now. "

" Really ? " Discord said, Fluttershy barely talks about her parents back in Rain Dukedom. Discord had to chance the subject somehow, he didn't like it when Fluttershy looked sad. " Hey, don't look all gloomy. You've got yourself....you know......looking.....really pretty and all......" Discord looked away as he was something embarrassing to her, not wanting her to see the blush on his face.

Fluttershy took Discord's paw and smiled deeply in herself, feeling so happy when she was with him. " Thank you. " Fluttershy said tightening her hold as she said that.

This evening the whole palace was celebration the wedding between Fluttershy and Discord, with cheerful and laughing ponies drinking cider and eating delicious food, there was music and dance performance at the party there was even a event that was called Bride's embarrassing past, but of course Fluttershy was hiding in one of the corners when that game started, after trying to stop Rainbow dash from telling a those embarrassing story's to the quests, but it failed miserably. Discord on the other hoof was enjoying the juicy story's of Fluttershy's embarrassing past event. Fancy pants was drunk singing with the musicians while holding onto a bottle of whatever that was that made him drunk. Fluttershy and Discord were sitting at the end of the room in two big chairs with a big banner hanging above them with Married Couple on it. Fluttershy had a great time laughing with her sisters and seeing Discord having a good time too. " Now that we've got the feast in full swing, why don't we hear a few words from the bridegroom ? " One of the quests said.

Discord had now idea that he was supposed to do a speech. " What ? no one mentioned this to me ! " As the crowed cheered to have a speech given to them.

" It's fine ! Just do it ! " The quest said.

" Rain king ! Did you fall for Princess Fluttreshy at first sight ? " Another quest asked. " Nice one ! " The crowed asked away.

" No. At first, i thought she was a truly impudent mare. I threw her in prison. " As Discord said that eveypony laught at it thinking it was a joke, but Fluttershy know it was true.

" You said it ! Princess Fluttershy's aways been one of a kind ! " A Quest said as everypony started to laugh harder.

Fluttershy took a deep sigh and face hoofed herself as she was embarrassed. " Why did you have to tell..... " Fluttershy said under her breath, But soon saw that Discord stood up from his chair and made the crowed silent as he spoke.

" The only pony i ever thought of as family was myself. To me, most ponies related bt blood were to be hated and resented. That's why i don't understand what true " family " is like. Even right now, to be honest, i feel a little out of place. "

Rainbow dash couldn't get quite and asked " You don't like it ? "

" No, it's not that. i think.....i'm envious. A great deal has happened to me in this country, but i still feel the same gratitude the i felt from the start. Allow me to express anew the gratitude i feel towards everypony that bore and raised Fluttershy. On the name of The lord of chaos. Discord, I swear that I will make her happy. " Discord said as he looked at her as he said the last part. Fluttershy couldn't feel happier than she was right now.

Everypony clapped there hooves together and cheered mightily for the couple. " Yeah ! Kiss her, Rain king ! "

Fluttershy stood up from her chair and asked to not say such thing out loud in public. Discord had other plans in mind and scooped Fluttershy up and placed a kiss on her lips, the crowed went wild when it happened, Fluttershy on the other hoof could die from embarrassment and shock at ones and hid away behind her mane. Things cooled down after a few more drinks, Discord only drank chocolate milk and Fluttershy wasn't a drinker so she only had cider or tea, mostly tea. Discord enjoyed the party, he could have spiced thing up with his chaos magic but he didn't want to ruin the night with a cotton candy clouds raining chocolate milk down on the quest and on his beautiful wife but if it were to happen she would be the tastiest treat in the whole wide world. Discord chuckled at his own thoughts off Fluttershy covered in chocolate milk, but when he turned to her, her face expression was sad for some reason as she looked at the crowed. " Fluttershy ? Dear, what's wrong ? "

Fluttershy was snapped out off her thoughts when she heard Discord speaking to her. " oh, nothing. I was just thinking, Thunderlane and Grandma didn't come after all. " Fluttershy let's out a little sigh, but Discord could still hear it. " But i guess that's how it goes. " Discord could only watch as the night went by and the quested leaved for a good night rest after the party.

The next morning Thunderlane was sitting at the cliff in the mountains where Fluttershy always went to when she was sad, it had a beautiful view of the waterfall next to the cliff where Thunderlane sat, looking as the sun rises from the horizon. Thunderlane letted out a deep sigh as he looked next to him laying on the dirt where peaces to be found. " What am i picking all these for ? " Thunderlane grabbed one and ate it. " Fluttershy doesn't need them anymore. " After eating the peace Thunderlane decided to go home there was nothing for him here anyways.

" Hey, sourpuss. " A voice called out to Thunderlane from behind him in the bushes. Thunderlane looked behind him seeing Discord in a dark blue blouse with matching pants and boots, holding two bushes away from each other to go through them easier. " Why did you have to hide away this far into the mountains ? " Thunderlane asked himself, how Discord know about this place ? " The girls told me you'd probably be here, but that was one rough road to et here. " Discord said answering Thundelane's unspoken question.

" You.... " Thunderlane said but was interrupted by Discord.

" It's not like I came here to interfere with your reverie, but Fluttershy is worried about you and the old hag. " Discord said walking past him, standing on the edge of the cliff to look at the view of the waterfall. " We're leaving in two days. "

" Are you telling me to go see her ? it seems a bit late. "

" Let me say in advance, I can't manage a light drop's worth of sympathy for you. This place is an important place where the two of you played when you were foals, right ? Idling away your time shut up in a place like this...... is cowardly. " Discord said turning to face Thunderlane as he was the last part.

Thunderlane bit together his teeth as he backed kick the left over peaces that were laying on the ground next too him towards Discord's face, yelling. " What would you understand ? ! " Discord got a face full off peaces hitting him right on the nose and face. " I've been looking at Fluttershy all this time, but it's not because i expected her to look back at me ! "

Discord whipped his face off peace juice with his paw as he said with a irritated voice. " That's what makes me sick ! "

Thunderlane's anger only grew as he he heard that. " What ? ! "

Discord faced Thunderlane completely with his back towards the end of the cliff. " Yeah ! You heard me right ! I can't understand it ! Feeling so limp you just sit back and do nothing when the mare you loved for 10 years is right in front of you ! "

Thunderlane flew up to his hight and grabbed Discord by his blouse, yelling right in his face. " How dare you ! " By the sudden action of Thunderlane a piece of the cliff broke making Discord loose balance, if it weren't for Thunderlane grabbing him by the blouse, Discord would have for sure fall off the cliff. The only thing that was holding him was Thunderlane who was hovering in midair, Discord's feet were still touching ground but barely if thunder lane would let go now Discord fall off completely.

Discord didn't flinched at all as he was dangled back. " Well ? Just push me off right now, why don't you ? " Discord said as he saw fear forming in Thunderlane's eyes. " If you really wanted Fluttershy, you shouldn't have concocted the stupid plan ! " With each word Discord said, Thunderlane began to shake with fear and anger at the same time. " You should've done this from the start ! "

With a final decision Thunderlane screamed out. " DAMN IT ! " pulling Discord towards him away from the edge with all his might. " I can't do it. But listen to me, Rain king. If Fluttershy ever cries, i'm coming to kill you. "

Discord was on his knees as he climbed a little further from the cliff because of his body length. " Understood. " Discord said.

Thunderlane letted out a sigh of exhaustion. " I alway knew, somewhere in my heart.......Even when Fluttershy was beside me, she was like the sun. She was with me, but unreachable. Connected to something far away. That's why, maybe, i thought she would never give herself to anyone. "

" I'm shocked. To meet somepony who feels the same way i do. " Discord said chuckling. And so The Fluttershy Roundtable Discussion began. " That mare acts like she's really shy about everything, but her nature is to be a vixen. once she makes up her mind, she flies off to do it, regardless of what you think about it. "

" That's right, and she doesn't even realize it. " Thunderlane agreed.

" Yes ! Doesn't she know how uneasy it makes us ? " It was now that the two of them released that they were holding a normal discussion for the first time with out yelling too each other, but know they weren't talking at all silent took over. Discord coughs a bit to break the silent . " Well, anyway. Did you say everything you want to say to me ? "

" Don't be a fool ! A whole life time wouldn't be enough to say everything i want ! " Thunderlane said as Discord wasn't up for a nagging flying bird chirping all day in his ear.

" Like i have time for that ! "

Thunderlane stood up loud and proud. " But, well... I do feel somewhat refreshed. " A wind formed blowing gently on there fur. The gentle silent was broken by a recognizable voice.

" Discord ? " Fluttershy pushed herself though the bushes seeing Discord and surprisingly Thunderlane with each other. " Thuderlane ? " As was Thunderlane.

" Fluttershy ? What are you doing here ? "

" Well, Discord told me to come by after him....." Fluttershy said not really knowing what was going on.

Discord planned everything out too meet both of them here so let's not waste time here and move it, Discord thought as he kicked Thunderlane in the romp to push him closer too Fluttershy. " Wh-What are you doing ? " Thunderlane said.

" Stop hesitating, sourpuss. you've got a lot to say, don't you ? " Thunderlane was surprised to see that Discord was actually helping him. " so long. i'm going back to my nap. " Discord said walking back to the palace.

" Discord ? " Fluttershy said.

" Oh. Don't cheat on me, Fluttershy. " Discord said was he looked over his shoulder with a goofy grin on his face from seeing Fluttershy's face turn red.

" I-i would never. " Fluttershy said.

Discord walked though the thick bushes as he went away but his voice could still be heard. " Damn, this road is rough......" Leaving the two off them alone to talk things out.

" The day of our departure is arriving, with so many memories in my heart. "

Farewell Sun part 3

As days pasted, the time came for Fluttershy, Discord and Fancy pants to return too Rain Dukedom. As the ship came to coast of the harbor, Fluttershy's sisters and the rest of the family came too say goodbye before they felt at the pier. " Stay well, Fluttershy. " Rainbow dash said hugging her.

" Sure. You guys, too. "

" Take care of the lord of chaos ! " Twilight said winking at Fluttershy before giving her a hug.

" Both of you come back and see us again some time. " Rarity said.

" We'll definitely be back again ! " Fluttershy said hugging Rarity too.

Fluttershy could see her father's look being a angry and serious looking, but she know that was a look of concern and sadness. " Father. it's okay, i see you. "

Rainbow dash couldn't help but grump as she know that there's one pony missing of the group and look at her father with a grumpy expression. " You really need to get grandma to- "

" Rainbow ! That's enough. You see, it's okay now. " Fluttershy said too her sister but they all could see that it hurt's Fluttershy that grandma wasn't here to say goodby. Fluttershy stayed strong even now and that's what was the best part about her, she's stronger than she seems.

Two hours earlier.

Fluttershy was watching the sunrise from one of the hills on a meadow behind the palace. " That's unusual; the morning sun's out, but it's clouded. Since i'm leaving for Rain Dukedom today, are the clouds telling me to come home ? But, there's still something i have to do. " Fluttershy was looking for Discord in the morning before she came here, but her sister told her that he went to see the sluice gates with Thunderlane, so after the sunrise Fluttershy went to Queen Amore's private part of the palace.

Fluttershy was standing in front of the gate of the private part with big steel doors and big wall surrounding the big private place. " I wanted to ask him to come with me because i feel anxious, but i guess i'm acting like a child. " As Fluttershy knocked on the door sunburst was the one that opened the door but not enough to let her through it.

" I'm sorry, Fluttershy. Your Grandmother doesn't want to see anyone. " Sunburst said.

Fluttershy tried to convince Sunburst to let her in. " Just a few words ! Can't you at least let me say goodbye ? "

" Forgive me. " Sunburst said shutting the door in her face. After that Fluttershy gave up and walked back before she heard a similar voice calling her.

" Fluttershy ! " Discord called out. " Hey, Fluttershy ! " Fluttershy stopped in her tracks and looked back seeing Discord and Thunderlane walking towards her.

" Discord....... What ? I thought you went to the sluice gates. "

" We've gone and returned. " As Discord got a good look at her, Discord know that there was something wrong. " But what are you...... " Thunderlane know what was going on as he look at the place they were in.

" Grandma ? " Thunderlane said shocked.

Fluttershy putted one a fake smile and said. " She wouldn't let me in. I guess i'll have to leave without seeing her..... What can you do, you know ? "

Discord didn't like the fake smile Fluttershy showed him. " If you're going to smile let it be a real smile or els don't smile at all. " Discord thought. " Don't be a fool. She's indulging herself by saying she doesn't want to see you. Are you the sort of pony to go along with that kind of self-indulgence ? "

Fluttershy know what to do now after Discord gave er a wake up call. " You're right. Thank you, Discord. I'm going. " She walked past Discord and said. " I'll go and tell Grandma everything i want to say ! " Filled with courage Fluttershy ran towards Queen Amore's house again.

Discord past on his bag too Thunderlane as he said. " Hold this ! "

" Hey ! " Thunderlane said by all soon enough Discord was running after Fluttershy.

Fluttershy heard his foot steppes and said. " You don't have to come along with me ! " She said while running.

" What are you saying ? When you look as anxious as you do....." Discord said.

" There's no convincing him. " Fluttershy said in her thoughts.

At Queen Amore's house.

Sunburst and Queen Amore were silently eating there meals. Sunburst was the royal adviser so he head give advice even if Queen Amore didn't wanted it, Sunburst couldn't take the silence anymore and spoke his piece. " Don't you think you're being overly stubborn ? When the favored child leaves the nest, one cannot simply remain ca- " Queen Amore puts her fork down with a little to much force, she moved herself outside the room as Sunburst watched silently. " Yes, yes. " Sunburst said as he know he pushed her past her limits.

Queen amore walked along the hallways thinking what Sunburst said. " Favored child ? Please. Of all the children i raised, the most troublesome was Fluttershy. She never knew her limits. She was reckless. She always choose the path that would hurt her the most. Yet she also cried often. Obstinacy and inferiority complex incarnate. " A sudden sound was heard and snapped Queen Amore out of her thoughts. She looked where the sound came from and saw Fluttershy flying above Discord who fel in the bushed next to the big wall.

" Discord ! Are you alright ? You were supposed to fly ! " Fluttershy said helping him up.

" I did fly ! My wings are a little problem some some time and you're the one who forced your way through ! "

" I'm not looking for a battle of wits-" Fluttershy lost the grip on Discord as she saw her Grandma standing on the platform of the house. " Grandma ! " Discord fell in the bushes again as Fluttershy chased after Queen Amore.

Through the shock of seeing Fluttershy, Queen Amore ran to the closes room possible. " Wait ! Grandma ! " Queen Amore opened the door quickly before Fluttershy could come in the door was closed before her face. " Listen to me ! Please ! " Fluttershy looked at a closed door, she didn't have the strength to open the door by forced as long as she was listening. " You can stay there if you want. Just listen. " Queen Amore was sitting with her back again the door she just slammed in Fluttershy's face and listened. " I'm leaving with Discord today. this is more of my own will than when i first left the kingdom. I think what you're worried about is reasonable, because living in the outside world is probably more dangerous than i thought. If i stay in the kingdom, i can live a peaceful life with all of you forever. But grandma, you told me something, back when i couldn't call the sun. " Take pride in what you do. Are the things that shake you color who you. That will be your truth." Ever since i met Discord i've grown to love singing, and living, more than ever before. He's shaken me and given me color. That's why...... I want to keep living with him. That is my truth. " Fluttershy bowed in front of the door in respect nearly crying her eyes out and said. " Please......stay well. For everything you've done for me, thank you so much. " After that she left leaving in such a rush she forgot that Discord was still there.

Discord sat down with a loud sound that even Queen Amore could hear. " Hey, old hag. " Discord sat with his back against the door too and said. " I think i can picture your expression right now. " Discord did with a expression of Queen Amore with her face and said. " Oh, why did i run away ? i might not ever hold her again ! " Discord said with a exact copy of her voice. Queen Amore didn't like the imitation he did of her and kick the door to tel him too shut up. " Quit being stubborn already. If you're going to miss her, just say so ! " Another kick was thrown in the door but harder, right at the place where Discord's head was.

Discord fell forwards feeling a headache coming up. " Get out of here, obnoxious brat ! "

Discord felt a little cloud of anger forming in his head as he rubbed his sore head. " Oh, is that it ? Why don't you drop dead, then ? " Standing up Discord walked away slowly. " Thought I understand at least a little of how you feel. The pony i want to see.... I can never see again. " Leaving Queen Amore alone to think.

Present time.

Fluttershy, Discord and Fancy pants boarded the ship that setted sail for Rain Dukedom. Sailing out of the bay of the Sunlight kingdom Fluttershy looked at the mountains she saw on the right side of the ship. Discord walked up to her, leaning on the railing of the ship next to her. " I guess the old hag didn't come, after all. " Discord said feeling a bit frustrated.

" It’s time to say farewell my child "

Fluttershy was happy that Discord worried about her, he didn't say it but she know that he was. " It's okay now, Discord. I don't have any regrets anymore. "

" You’re grown up now "

" Listen..... about your grandma. " Discord said being very serious right now but Fluttershy focused more on the strange sound she keeps hearing. " The truth is- Fluttershy ? "

" It’s time to say farewell my child "

Fluttershy walked to the Quarterdeck of the ship, following the sound. It sounded like singing a voice she know quite well.

" You’re leaving and we’ll allow "

The clouds that remend in the sky cleared away, a sun so bright yet gentle came in view.

" Farewell sun singing "

Fluttershy's family also know from who the voice that sang the song belonged too. Rainbow dash asked her sisters. " Hey.....Is this..... "

" The mountains are trembling goodbye "

Before she could finish Twilight nodded her head. " Yeah. No question about it."

" Memories are ringing "

Thunderlane who was quite surprised also know who was singing and said. " Grandma ! "

" The past is flying by "

Everyone in the kingdom could hear the beautiful singing, form up in the palace to the bottom of the mountains.

" Mountain child drift on "

Fluttershy was still looking, as she looked past the big mountains in front of her she saw Queen Amore standing on the tip of a mountain. Fluttershy's eyes teared up as she saw her Grandma singing for her.

" In the sky we’ll meet again "

" Farewell sun. Such a warm sun, isn't it. " Rarity said as she felt the warmth of the sun hitting her coat.

" I've never seen it before. " Rainbow dash said.

" You are almost gone "

" Farewell sun ? " Discord asked.

" I heard it's a song for ponies leaving this country. " Fluttershy said as she listened carefully, hearing her Grandmothers last thought. " I will pray for you from here. "

" I’ll push you then "

" When you lose your way..... "

" You who leave this cliff...... beloved child "

" When you travel into night....."

" For your light..... your happiness..... "

Fluttershy couldn't hold it anymore, she bursted out in tears, her legs unable to carrie her.

" May the song and the sun guide you ! "

A strong wing blow the sails of the ship and carried it away to the wide ocean. Fluttershy know if the ship went to far from the sore she wouldn't be able to see her grandma anymore. " NO ! Don't blow ! " Thinking of the memories of her and her grandma together. " A little longer...... Just a little longer..... " Taking all the air in her longs she shouted. " Grandma ! "

As the song ended and the ship went into the wide ocean, Fluttershy cried a lot as Discord petted her head, watching the land from afar. " Cry away. It's clear to me, too. " Discord tilled up Fluttershy up in a princess hold. " This wind. This air. " Breath in deeply Discord touched Fluttershy's cheeks softly and rubbed away the tears. " It's mourning its loss of you. Acknowledge that. " Discord gave Fluttershy the biggest goofiest smile he could ever make and said. " You're so fortunate. "

After a few days on sea the royal ship finally got to the Harbor Town Lepion, ponies of the town came to look at the return of the king and queen of Rain Dukedom.

As Fluttershy walked of the plank to the pier she saw a familiar face among the crowed, Among the crowed was a jumping with excitement little Apple bloom and a waving hoof of Apple jack. Fluttershy was so happy she rushed to give them a hug, Fluttershy introduced them to Discord and Fancy pants after the introduction they went to a surprise Apple jack prepared. As the group made it's way to a big building with the name " Café-Musée Fluttershy. " on it, Fluttershy was quit surprised to see a museum cafe named after her.

The inside of the building was more of a surprise as a suited butler Big Mac greeted them inside, the place was nicely decorated with all kinds of stuff that has something to do with Fluttershy, like the raincoat Fluttershy wore, a brokken dagger cut in half by her and pictures of her all hanging behind glass for display. The Cafe Musée was also selling tea, perfume, bread, medicinal herbs and coffee with Snips and Snails behind the counter also in butler suits greeting Fluttershy and Discord. Behind the counter could you see stuffed Fluttershy bears for sell and also more tea and coffee. Fluttershywas a little overwhelmed to see pretty much everything has changed since the last time she visited Apple jack and Apple bloom, Discord on the other hoof was seeing to pay for a stuffed Fluttershy bear which made Fluttershy roll her eyes at.

After the visit of the famous Cafe-Musée Fluttershy and it's employees Apple jack explained that she would like tourist to see what the new Queen of Rain Dukedom is like and of course for the good of the farm, Fluttershy was actual laughing at it she was very happy the Apple family was actually doing great.

After that Fluttershy and Discord took a carriage back to the capital city Ginitari where everypony was actually having fun instead doing there jobs like the guards of the wall for example they were flirting with the maids as they feeded them sliced apples they were supposed to guard for intruders. There little day dream came to a end as one of the guards spotted the carriage at the enters of the gates and warned everyone that the king came back from him trip with the queen.

the palace was a mess everyone was in such a hurry to hide every mare in the castle that wasn't suppose to be there, soldiers caring mares on there back to hide away in closets, under a bed or even behind curtains. Trumpets where blown as warning signals for every pony els who didn't know the king was coming back.

Pinkie pie was blasting away with her party canon at her the king is away party in the ballroom until hearing the trumpet sound, she shouted that the king is coming and the party ponies started to panic, loud noises came from everywhere.

The council members were covered in lipstick and were having a blast after hearing the trumpet sound too, the poofted the lovely mares away as fast as they could, but they didn't think things through. The lovely mares ended up on a pond near the palace, they were soaked with water from top to bottom and cursed the old geezers to die. In the end it was a total chaos fiasco in the palace, Discord of course found out right away and know exactly who came up with this stupid idea.

" You stupid bastard ! " Discord shouted as he slammed the door open of his office.

Feather bangs was sitting on top of the desk reading some documents. " Oh ? " With a pathetic cover face he said. " Oh, welcome back ! You're quite early. "

Discord grabbed a piece of cloth and pulled it away. " You can explain this, can't you ? " As the cloth was removed a mare was showed in a scandalized outfit. Fancy pants covered his eyes and Fluttershy completely red as the mare ran away embarrassed.

Feather bangs was still trying to play dense. " E-Explain what ? " But there were clearly two other mares hiding behind the desk.

" Why is the palace full of mares ? Also known as Feather bangs Flower Garden ! " Discord was pushed back by Fluttershy as Discord went on a rampage. " Let me go, Fluttershy ! It will be the death penalty for him this time ! I'm the only one allowed to do thing like this ! "

" So mean ! I would've had it all cleaned up in three days. " Feather bangs said leaning with his back to the desk.

" You liar ! " If it wasn't enough of a ruckus already the three maids Sweetie belle, Scootaloo and Babs seed tried to defend Feather bangs.

" Majesty ! Prince Feather bangs hasn't done anything wrong ! " Sweetie belle said.

" That's right ! " Scootaloo said.

Out of nowhere Pinkie pie showed up right behind Fluttershy and Discord. " He's actually been doing very well ! He allowed that everyday is party day until you came back ! "

" Pinkie ? " Fluttershy said thinking that isn't very well a good idea to make everyday party day.

" It's true that we watched his degradations of public morality...... " Star swirls said appearing behind Discord.

" ....... And talked about what a louse he was behind the scene..... " Kibitz said appearing right of Discord.

" But he is bearing all of the country's most important affairs. " Randolph said appearing left of Discord.

" The number of mares is evidence of the burden the Prime minister bore. " Star swirls said.

" Regardless.... " Kibitz said.

" ..... There is a great deal we need you to do.... " Randolph finished.

" ...... Rain King. " Star swirls said to finish the cherry on top, Before Fancy pants went wild swinging papers around.

" Majesty ! Princess Fluttershy ! Change your dress immediately ! There are ambassadors from over ten countries waiting for you ! " Probably also swoon by mares to get here, what's called Feather bangs style of entertaining.

" As long as they were here, i thought we could deal with them all at once. " Feather bangs said laughing it off.

" Give me a break ! " Discord said thinking he could have a nice day for once.

" But i worked so hard to double the audiences ! " Feather bangs said like it's the most important thing in the world.

Fluttershy went away to put on a dress but that also means that she had to go through torture again. Babs seed was trying to tighten the corset but it was being stubborn. " Princess Fluttershy, you've put on weight ! " Babs seed said as she tightened it again making Fluttershy gasp for air.

" We'll help, too ! " Sweetie belle said.

" You stand back ! " Babs seed yelled at the two.

" Babs, don't be mad ! " Scootaloo said.

" So scary ! " Sweetie belle said hiding behind Scootaloo.

" What's wrong ? " Fluttershy asked.

" Nothing is wrong ! " Babs seed said making a grumping face.

" Just because she got snubbed..... " Sweetie belle said behind her back.

" She doesn't have to take it out on us. " Scootaloo finished, making Babs seed more angrier.

" Yeah ! " They both said agreeing to the fact.

" What was that ? " Babs seed said turning towards them to give them a lesson they never will forget.

" Sorry ! " Sweetie belle yelled as she pulled back from the fight.

" Idiot ! " Scootaloo said as she bit in one of the legs of her enemy.

" Feather bangs fault, huh ? " Fluttershy guested.

At the same time Discord was also having trouble with fancy pants commands. " Majesty, to the audience chamber at once ! We're going to get as much done as we can today ! "

Feather bangs laughs like a school bully saying. " Serves you right ! "

" You bastard ! " Discord said before he could push that pretty head of him Discord was stopped by Fancy pants.

" Save the anger for later ! " Fancy pants dragged Discord to the audience chamber.

The work went on till night as Fluttershy watched the burning light of Discord's office from her bedroom window. " He won't be sleeping tonight, i guess. " Discord would always sneak in bed as she slept but with all the work that must be done. " Its all because he went along with my selfish request. Sorry, Discord. " Fluttershy closed the curtains as she went to bed.

As the morning sun rose from behind the mountains, Fluttershy slowly woke up rolling up to her side she felt a empty bed side, for some reason Fluttershy felt sad not seeing Discord's face when she woke up. " It's backlash from being tighter for so long, i guess ? " Having the feeling to see him filled Fluttershy's head.

The day started with the desk filled with documents, a tied up Feather bangs to a chair also reading some of the documents while yelling that he won't go anywhere if he would release his bindings. Discord was wearing his glasses as he was discussing financial business with Fancy pants. " About Erad Canyon, it would expedite things if i went there personally, wouldn't it ? "

" That might be best. " Fancy pants said agreeing with Discord.

Going too the next problem " I'm not changing the tariffs on the iron ore. Can you get them to accept that ? "

" I will try. "

Fluttershy was also very busy with her responsible as the queen of the country too attend audiences and too keep up with her lessons. " Princess Fluttershy ! " The three maids pushed Fluttershy who was wearing a pink dress with a big darkish pink bow on the back of the dress too the audience room. " You have another urgent audience today ! " The day looked like it was repeating it self over and over again for Fluttershy. Each day Fluttershy found her self in a new dress attending audiences and Discord working all night with out any sleep, leaving Fluttershy alone in a double sized bed, it continued for a whole week with out seeing each other at all.

" Is this the longest we've ever been apart ? " Fluttershy thought as she was sitting in bed, hugging a pillow to her chest. The next day Fluttershy sat in the gazebo with her back at one of the pillars in the castle gardens feeling lonely for some reason. " It's so strange. As king, he feels so far away. It's not like something has changed. What's changed is...... Me "

" Fluttershy ! " The voice of Feather bangs scared Fluttershy that she jumped away, flying above Feather bangs she said.

" F-Feather Bangs ! "

" What'cha spacing out about ! " Feather bangs said with a goofy grin on his face, what actually annoyed Fluttershy more as she looked at it.

" Could you please stop grinning, it is very annoying since this is all you fault ! " Fluttershy landed softly on the ground again.

" That's so mean ! " Feather bangs said with a hurtful look on his face. " I delayed the work to try to give the senior statesmen a workout ! It's like no one understands. "

" Whatever. " Fluttershy said with a pouty look on her face.

Feather bangs leaned closer too Fluttershy's face as he whispered in her ear. " So what's with the " I'm so lonely by myself " face you're giving off ! " Feather bangs gave Fluttershy this look that said You can tell your big brother as he said. " When you were on your trip......did you do it. "

Later Feather bangs sat on the misshaped chair in the counsel room with the counsel members. Feather bangs told them everything what Fluttershy told him. " They didn't do it. " Randolph said surprised.

" How can this be ? " Star swirl said.

" What is going on here ? " Kibitz said just as shocked as the other members.

" Does our king still have on interested in that ? " Star swirl said.

" In that case.... " Kibitz said.

" .......Shall we use our powers....... " Star swirl finished.

" ........ To see it done. " Randolph said as Feather bangs was deep in his thought lost to listen too the members of the counsel.

Before Feather bangs went to the counsel members, Feather bangs listened what happened at the trip they went on. " Sorry to hear it. "

" It's stupid, right ! " Fluttershy said.

" I envy Discord. " Fluttershy wonder why as she looked at Feather bangs. " It's not stupid to cry because you love somepony so much. It just shows how badly you've fallen for them. To have met somepony who makes you feel that way......To have found a world that doesn't feel complete when you're by yourself..... It's fine. Loneliness like that doesn't make you weaker. It's power, to take you somewhere larger and even more free. "

After the talk with Feather bangs, Fluttershy went to her room just looking at some flowers in a vase standing next to her bed. Fluttershy was so deep in her thoughts about what Feather bangs said, she didn't noticed the three maids spying on her. " Princess Fluttershy.... " Sweetie belle said feeling sad for her.

" She must be lonely. " Scootaloo said also feeling sad just by watching her, Babs seed also agreed as they could bare it anymore so they went to the only pony that could help them out. Turns out it was Pinkie pie they turned too, maybe not too good idea after all, if you ask me. Pinkie pie is maybe good at making other ponies frown upside down, but a problem of romance is a whole other story.

" Allow me to resolve this ! " Pinkie said as the three maids explained what the situation was. " It's perfect ! " Pinkie said as she was balancing a lunch menu set of some freshly baked bread with chocolate on them, some delicious tea to go with it and a fresh healthy salad on her head with out a second thought she sprinted out of the kitchen.

The next thing Fluttershy know is that she was heading for her next lessons when Pinkie pie stopped her and gave her the lunch menu set. " For Discord ? " She said was Pinkie said that she was super duper busy with everything els that she couldn't deliver this too Discord so she asked Fluttershy too do it.

" Yes, i'm sooooooo busy, and i'm understaffed as it already is ! Would you please help me, Princess Fluttershy ! " Pinkie pie headed out as soon as Fluttershy could said something. " Oooh, soooo Busy ! " Pinkie said running away. " I don't know what to do with myself ! " With that crazy scene of Pinkie pie Fluttershy did as she was asked too do and walked toward Discord's office with the lunch menu set on her back.

As Fluttershy arrived too her destination the only one present was Fancy pants. " I'm supposed to bring Discord his meal. Pinkie asked." Fluttershy said a little nervous.

" His majesty is on a tour of inspection right now. " Fancy pants said cleaning up the desk.

" I-I see. Never mind, then. "

" I am to join him immediately. " Fancy pans looked at Fluttershy as she was still standing in the opening of the room. " Is there something else you need ? "

" How is he ? He must be tired, i guess. "

" Oh..... I suppose he is. "

" I guess he would be. It's tiring by yourself. Doing everything by yourself....."

" Shall i pass on a message to him ? " Fancy pants said interrupting Fluttershy.

" N-No, thank you. Nothing at all. " Fluttershy turned to head out as Fancy pants was confused with how the relationship between those two even started in the first place.

Fluttershy found herself staring at the pouring rain that felt from the sky as she sat near her window, her head leaning the cold glass as she thought too herself. " I always want to see him. I want to be somewhere i can hear his voice. I want to touch him. But when i can't have that......It hurts.....so much. " Her expression was of a sad one with out any love to give as her song was the same as her emotions now, sad and lonely.

The sadness born today
Soars high into the sky
The sky awakens and stirs the wind
Making my chest tremble

Even in this state, Fluttershy could summon the sun as her song cleared the sky slowly.

I want to protect you, i want to feel our destiny
The tears you have shed.... the hollow in your chest
I want to fill it with happiness

The gray clouds disappeared one by one, the rain drops slowed down as sunlight came through the clouds.

It’s a tender light
May this song that i sing
Reach you wherever you are
No matter how far apart we may be
I believe that it'll reach you
Singing in the sunlight
The drops of the sun, Will shine beautifully
And when the sadness is blown away
The world will come to life again
Please come, the tender light

Only at the palace shined in sunlight as the rest of the kingdom still rained down on them. Fluttershy stayed in bed afterwords that day.

After Discord returned from the tour of inspection it was already dark outside and almost morning, He went right too bed, but he didn't go to bed where Fluttershy was sleeping he went too his single after work bed. Before the breaking of dawn he woke up feeling that he haven't slept at all. Discord got right up and looked outside his window having a sudden urge to see somepony he didn't see for quit sometime now.

What Discord didn't know was that that somepony was already wide awake and out of bed. Fluttershy was standing on a hill of a open meadow, she used her song to make the sky clear as the ocean it self, feeling the softly breeze of the wind, looking at the beautiful sunrise that was about to begin. " Discord taught me before. If you slip out the backyard, you come to this place. I'll come here with him next time. " The wind blow off the morning dow on the grass, feeling like the little raindrops returned to the sky. The cause of it was actually Fluttershy's doing as her powers grow strong with the feeling she was feeling right now. " I'm not afraid of the times i can't see him. When i feel pain in my chest, my song grows..... The scenery feels closer. " The raindrops looked like glittering sparkles that surrounded Fluttershy. " The next time i see you...... I will, once again..... Fall in love " In a moments Fluttershy saw Discord standing right in front of her, looking more handsome as ever before. discord felt the same way as Fluttershy shined like the sun itself to him.

" I got back first thing in the morning. I didn't tell Fancy pants and the others, of course. " Discord lead next to Fluttershy in the grass.

Fluttershy giggled a little as she said. " Everyone must be in a panic about now. " Discord laughed at it too, thinking about it. " How did you know i was here ? " Fluttershy asked.

Discord grabbed Fluttershy and place her on top of his chest as he looked in her eyes and said. " Intuition. "

Fluttershy giggled as she felt so much happier with him by her side. " That's some amazing intuition. "

Discord carried his paw softly on Fluttershy's cheek as his eyes sparkled with passion. " I wanted to see you. It was painful.....not seeing you. It's the thing i hate most. "

Fluttershy leaned in closer as she said. " Same here. " Kissing Discord full on the lips.

The rain, the wind, the sun.....you bring them all with you. Every time our eyes meet. You bring the world to me.

A New Land Comes With New Ponies

Fluttershy was waiting for her ship to leave too the kingdom of rain dukedom while waving to her sisters to say goodbye to her.

" Be careful and be save, if enything happens know that you can always return to the kingdom of Sunlight" Twilight said with tears in her eyes.

" Just promise that you will write to us everyday and take good care of yourself " Rarity Said crying while waving goodbye at her sister with a handkerchief in her hooves.

" Just know that we love you Flutters " Rainbow dash Said trying not to cry but Fluttershy saw the tears all in her eyes and know how hard this is for her and her sisters to say goodbye but her kingdom needs her to be strong.

When the ship was about to leave Fluttershy soon Said. " I will come and visit soon, don't worry, i will be fine on my own, i love you all "

Waving goodbye for the last time with tears in her eyes, she was about to go to the kingdom of rain dukedom were the king was waiting for her, looking back at her kingdom for that was maybe the last time she would see it. She Looked at the open sea and thought about what it would be like at the rain dukedom kingdom.

It was raining in the middle of the night, Fluttershy looked at the lights of the kingdom of rain dukedom.

" It's beautiful look at all the light's glowing from everypony's houses" she turned around to face one of the captains of the ship it was a earth pony with light grey coat with a brown mane and his cutie mark was a four-bladed fan. His name was Mr. Breezy he went along with princess Fluttershy to made sure she would be safe along the ride.

" Yes princess it's quite beautiful " said Mr.breezy walking to her looking at the view. It was beautiful, the light of the full moon shines op the seas surface, the smell of the salty sea and the sound of the waves and rain from the sea below them and from the sky above them.

" What you see now is the Harbor Town Lepion princess" he said while pointing at the town.

" But princess is it alright for you to go in town now ? It's already dark and you are expected to arrive tomorrow, we are ahead with the planned schedule " Mr. Breezy said looking at a piece paper while worrying about the princess. Fluttershy looked at the amazing town of Rain Dukedom.

" Please don't worry Mr. Breezy, i will be fine, i will just find a inn to stay the night, you should hurry back to Sunlight kingdom to tell my sisters that i arrived safely to Rain Dukedom " Fluttershy said smiling at Mr. Breezy.

One of the sailor pony's who was making the ship ready to go off board said " huh ? Already ? Looking disappointed at the princess.

" Ooh i didn't mean it like that, if you want you could stay for a while and go back to Sunlight kingdom tomorrow" Fluttershy said feeling bad for the sailor pony.

" Your probably wanted to get drink and get drunk don't you, compass star " a sailor pony said tie up the rope on the sail, to the brown coated pegasus with curly blond mane and as cutie mark a compass shaped of a star.

" Shhh don't say that in front of the princess, star hunter " said compass star to the dark blue pegasus with light blue mane and a white Orion constellation as cutie mark.

The captain and princess Fluttershy laughed at the two sailor pony's that quarreld at each other.

" You are free to do what you want but if you would be so kind to tell my sisters that i was safely brought to rain dukedom " Fluttershy said to the sailor pony's with a lovely smile, the two sailor pony's blushed at the princess for what they thought in there heads were the same things.

Fluttershy grabbed her things and walked off the boat going to the market place, the captain and his crew waved goodbye at there princess.

" Be careful you highness and good luck" they all said to her with tears in there eyes.

" It's not forever, so please don't worry'' Fluttershy said as she went to the market away from the harbor.

what is it lovely at the town market, so many ponies and there is even an barrier around the market to prevent it from getting wet Fluttershy thought while looking around, so many voices of pony's having fun and being happy, music was playing everywhere it was so beautiful and so many stalls were there with different things to buy, with wonderful smells and different ones that Fluttershy never have seen or smells before. Fluttershy walked past a stall where a brown coated stallion with a black mane and as cutie mark a money bag.

He was the owner of a fruit stall seeing Fluttershy he asked " Hey, do you want one little lady" showing a yellow kind orange in his hoove.

" I've never seen fruit like that before? Sorry mister but what is it ? Fluttershy said looking at the strange fruit before her.

" There freshly-picked enelot fruits Mis, you must be new in town ?, there five bits for one, but a pretty lady like you i will make it four bits, how about it Mis ? " The sales pony said smiling at Fluttershy.

" So there called enelot ? Four bits for one ? But thats pretty expensive for one enelot " Fluttershy said looking at the sales pony that had a shocked expression on his face.

" What ? You think that's expensive ? " The sales pony said backing away for the mare.

" You must be poor ? Aren't you ? " He said while waving his hoove.

" Don't pass it to me, get out " the sales pony yelled at Fluttershy.

" But i'm not poo... Ah ! Fluttershy said backed away from the fruit stall not looking were she went bumping in to somepony behind her, losing her balance and fell over on to the street.

" Hey, watch were your going lady ! " a drunk stallion said to Fluttershy.

" I'm so sorry sir, i hope your not hurt " said trying to stand up while pony's were laughing at the scene that just happened having there eyes at Fluttershy.

" Get it together county girl " the drunk stallion said before he walked away.
Fluttershy who was standing up now hiding behind her mane whispered " I'm sorry sir " and walked away from the crowd.

It's getting pretty late i should find an inn to spent the night there Fluttershy thought. Looking at the sky, it was coverd with gray clouds raining in the night.

" But sir this is the fifth place i tried, are there really no more rooms left " Fluttershy said with pleading eyes at the owner of the inn, it was a stallion with dark light yellow coat and a brown mane with a mustache above his lip.

" I'm sorry but it's not possible" the owner said looking at the bar next signaling at Fluttershy to look too.
The bar was full with pony soldiers, cheering was heard from miles away, the sounds of cups bumping against each other and laughing pony's that were drunk.

" See that, we've been swarmed with the national army since yesterday and i don't couldn't let a nice mare like you loose in that drunken rabble " the owner said looking at Fluttershy.

She completely understood the situation and went away from the inn. Walking through the street looking for a another inn. it was quite on the street no pony's were seen in the street, Fluttershy didn't had a good feeling about this, it was to dark in the street only a few lamppost were stand but it still scary walking in the middle of the night alone, not knowing she was being followed by two mysterious colt's.

" This is awful. I can't make heads or tails out of the pony's of this country" Fluttershy thought walking down the street when somepony spoke to her.

" Hey Mis don't you have a place to stay for the night ? " Fluttershy looked around to see where that voice came from, she looked behind her there were two pony's standing there, one of them had a light blue-green coat with orange-brown mane. He was a short but round unicorn with the cutie mark of a pair of scissors. The pony next to him is a golden colored coat with an aquamarine mane. He was a tall but skinny unicorn with a snail as cutie mark.

" Yes, do you know a place where they have an open room " Fluttershy said with a smile on her face of the good news she just heard and that she wasn't alone on the dark street anymore.

" But of course we have an open room for you right Snips " said the tall unicorn to the short one.

" Yep it's our one year anniversary, one night with two meals for ten bits" Snips said to Fluttershy who looked happy about the deal.

" It comes with two meals ? I was getting hungry so thats good, thank you so much, could you maybe show me the way to your inn " Fluttershy said feeling a messy noise from her stomach, fortunately not to hard for the two colt's to hear, not noticing the two gentle colts who were grinning at each other.

" But of course here let me take your saddle bag " said Snails trying too grab her bag but Fluttershy stopped him by moving aside, not letting it be touch by the colt.

" It's alright it's not that heavy i will carry it my self " says Fluttershy to Snails but he didn't stop there.

" We insist we can't let you carry that all by yourself " Snails said taking her bag before she could say something.

" Alright if you really insist on carrying my stuff, i don't mind " Fluttershy said looking a little confused at the two pony's. Snips and Snails looked at each other and laughed confusing Fluttershy more then she already was.

" You really took the bait, a story this good could never be true " Snips laughed while Snails tackled Fluttershy to the ground hitting her head pretty hard, she looked at the two colt's who ran away deep in the dark street. She tried to get up and stopping the two pony's that ran away with her bag but the hit from just now was to hard and fainted on the ground. laying on the ground she heard hooves steps on the ground coming to her then She heard somepony's voice but very blurred.

" Hay mis all'y right " the voice said but did not help much before Fluttershy passed out.

"am i dead ? If i am what is that smell then ? It's smells delicious, does heaven smell like soup and freshly-baked bread ?" with a shock Fluttershy moved straight up the bed where she was lay on, she looked around and saw a big red stallion.
The big stallion was a earth pony with a red coat and an orange mane and with a big apple as cutie mark, looks at Fluttershy before he placed a bowl of soup at the table in front of her.

" I'm so glad your awake " a little filly said next to her bed. Fluttershy looked at her and was quite shocked for she did not notice the filly. She was a little yellow coated earth pony with a red mane on her head was a big red bow and her cutie mark was a shield with a apple in it.

" Now give her some space sugar cube" an older mare said walking in the room.

" She hit her head pretty hard" the mare said looking at Fluttershy.

" Are y'all feeling better Mis ? " the mare said. Fluttershy looked at the mare, she was a orange coated earth pony with a blond mane, her cutie mark were three red apples.

" Yes, i think so but if i may ask where am i ? " Fluttershy asked the three earth pony's with a confused look on her face.

" We found you lying on the ground, so we brought you here Mis" the little filly said with a sad look on her face.

" We saw what happened with you and those colts, were sorry but we couldn't find those pony's who stole from you " The mare said also looking sad at Fluttershy.

" It's nothing to worry about, it was only some clothes and some stuff but that's all " Fluttershy said smiling at the three pony's who saved her from the streets.

" Well if that's all why don't y'all eat something before it get's cold" the mare said smiling a bit at Fluttershy.

" Is that for me ? why thank you, your so kind " Fluttershy said drinking the soup and eating the bread and filling her stomach with it. She did not think she was this hungry.

" My name is Apple Jack, it's nice to meet you, uuhhmm ? " the mare said sticking a hoove out too Fluttershy, waiting for an answer. Fluttershy stopped eating and looked at the mare.

" I'm so sorry, i should have done this sooner, my name is Fluttershy, it's nice to meet you Apple Jack " Fluttershy said shaking Apple Jack's hoove.

" This is my little sister, Apple Bloom " Apple jack said pointing at the little filly.

" And that's Big McIntosh but everypony calls him Big Mac for short " Apple Jack said pointing at the big stallion.

" Yhep " Big Mac said agreeing with his sister.

" Hey, Big Mac, you can go now, we will take care of her so don't worry " Apple bloom said to her big brother.

" Yhep " said Big Mc and with that he leaved.

" Hey Mis Fluttershy, were do you come from ? " Apple bloom asked with a smiling look on her face.

" I am from the Sunlight kingdom" Fluttershy said smiling back at the little filly.

" The Sunlight kingdom ? " Apple Jack said not knowing were that is and looking at Fluttershy.

" Yes, it's far to the east of here " Fluttershy said looking at the two. they were on the bed where Fluttershy lay on.

" I'm the fourth princess of that country " Fluttershy just said that like it was nothing but the others.

" YOUR A PRINCESS " they both said at the same time with shocking looks on there faces.

" Why did you came to this county? Fluttershy ? " Apple bloom said with sparkles in her eyes.

" Oohh, i came here to get married " Fluttershy said Remembering why she came here in the first place.

" Wow " the two sisters said in a happy tone, they wore happy for her.

" To somepony from our country ? who is the lucky pony Fluttershy ? " Apple Jack said smiling at Fluttershy who was only getting nervous at the thought.

" Your king " Fluttershy said blushed at the thought of marrying the king of Rain Dukedom.

" The king ? you mean the rain king ? " Apple Jack said with a normal tone again.

" You mean the cruel and ruthless king ? i heard that he's bald with two horns coming from his head and has fangs like bear, they also say that he's cruel and a meany sins hè became the king of this coun.... " Apple bloom said looking at Apple Jack who was waving at her behind Fluttershy's back to stop her from telling anymore things about the rain king, but it was already to late.

Fluttershy was shaking her hooves and too scared to go to sleep anytime soon still thinking what Apple bloom said. She almost was forgetting who she was marrying.

" Well, look at the time, bedtime for you sweetie " Apple Jack said to Apple bloom getting of from the bed. She and Apple bloom walked thoughts the door leaving Fluttershy alone to sleep.

" maybe he's kind and not a monster that everypony keeps telling me, what Apple bloom said can't be true no pony has two horns and fangs and i don't care if he's cruel, i can still fall in love with him right ?, well that's what we will see tomorrow right Fluttershy ?" Fluttershy thought to herself drifting of to sleep.

In a bar not far from here two mysterious stallions where talking with some food and drinks.

" So if things go as expected, it should be tomorrow evening, right ? " one of the stallion said drinking from his cup.

" They should be receiving her on the high seas about now " the other stallion said with a low voice, the stallion laughed at this.

" Like a package, huh? " the stallion said smiling at the stallion.

" Marrying a princess from a sucluded country like that, it's certainly eccentric" the low voiced stallion said with a straight look on his face.

" The fourth princess of the Sunlight kingdom, do you know about it, your Excellency ? " said the stallion looking at his partner.

" I've heard that the sun there always shines all year around, but no one in the Naval Department had even heard of it " the low voiced stallion said.

" Then the best way to learn more, would be to ask the princess directly, right? " the stallion said smiling at his partner.

" Yeah, it's our job to escort her to the castle, after all " the low voiced stallion said.

" And if anything should happen to her " the stallion stopped, for the low voiced stallion interrupted him moving to face his partner directly now.

" To allow a piddling little country to maintain it's autonomy, what kind of price tag did that come with" the low voiced stallion said smiling with his partner.

" Would it cause a dispute?, a few little country's like that " said the stallion a little worried at his partner.

" The outcome doesn't matter, if it comes to his diplomatic skills, it will be the prologue to his downfall" the stallion laughed with his partner until he heard two colts yelling in the bar and looked around him seeing two unicorn colt's one fat but short looking and the other one tall but skinny looking they wore talking about something.

" What's wrong with that pony ?, she took us for a ride! " Snips said a little to loud.

" Hey, Snips, you should keep your voice down " Snails said looking around the bar where everypony was sleeping to drunk to get up.

" They're all passed out drunk!, don't worry!, damn, i don't know what kind of bits that was, but it only paid for one drink?!, i didn't think i'd have to pay for my own drinks! said Snips drinking his apple juice.

" That moneychanger pony was pretty stingy, too " Sails said looking back at what happened.

"This sigure stuff is basically worthless, if you don't like go home, right ?" that moneychanger said trying to imitate the him said Snips.

" I wonder if he knew we were desperate ? " Snails said wondering about it.

" It' pisses me off ! " Snips said getting a headache from it all not knowing the two stallions walking up to them.

" You two " one of them said, scaring the two colt's.

" I'm sorry " snips said hugging Snails tight.

" We were just about to to bring it by " Snails said hugging Snips also tight. the two mysterious stallions looked at each other.

" Could you explain to me what you were talking about" the stallion said with a scary look on his face.

" Y-yes, sir " Snails said almost crying of the scary face.

" Gladly " said Snips also beginning to cry with Snails as the two mysterious stallions came closer to the two colt's.

" Wonderful, let's talk " the lowe voiced stallion said grinning malicious at his partner and then at the two colt's.
