Screwball: Pony of Chaosby Creativa-Artly01ChaptersA Very Screwy First ChapterA Very Screwy Fourth ChapterA Very Screwy Fifth ChapterA Very Screwy Second ChapterA Very Screwy Third ChapterA Very Screwy First ChapterIt's a beautiful day and Screwball is enjoying a normal day at school with her friend Dinky, Derpy's daughter. The two are just talking in their private little corner when two bullies walk up to them. One, a colt named Gold Dust, slaps Derpy across the face. This causes Screwy to go all crazy all over his hindquarters. One of the fillies, who just happens to be Cheerilee and Big Mack's daughter runs inside and grabs her mother. "Momma! Momma!" says little Honey Blossom. "Screwball just turned Gold Dust into a giant golden brick!" Cheerilee follows her daughter outside at a full gallop. "Screwball," says Mrs. Cheerilee. "Yes Mrs. Cheerilee," replies Screwball. "Classroom. NOW." Screwball puts down her head and follows her teacher inside but not before returning Gold Dust to his normal pony state. When Screwball walks into the classroom, she is greeted by her father, Mrs. Cheerilee, as well ad Gold Dust's mom, Mrs. Rich. She then takes a seat next to her father. "Hey dad," says Screwball. "Hey honey," he moans, "you know what I told you about using your magic in public, what your mother told you about using your magic in public. Ponies fear our kind. You know that." "I know that, daddy," replies Screwball, "but he hit Dinky, what was I supposed to do? She's my best friend and I hate it when they pick on her. I had to do something." "Doing something is called going and getting your teacher so she can punish them," replies Discord with a scowl on his face. "That's the third incident this month, Screwball," says Cheerilee. "Just go home for the day. It's almost time for the bell to go home anyways." Back at the Chaos Mansion that night, Discord, Fluttershy, and Screwball are eating dinner. "You're lucky that she didn't expel you," says Discord, "you know that?" "Yes daddy," says Screwball. "What'd she do this time?" asks a concerned Fluttershy. "She turned Mrs. Spoiled Rich's son Gold Dust into a gold brick," replies Discord. "Honey, you know our rule," replies Fluttershy. "I know momma," replies Screwball, "but he hurt Dinky. You gotta understand?" "I understand all too well," replies Fluttershy. "Believe it or not, but I was bullied as a filly too, back when Dash and I went to Cloudsdale Elementary. She would stand up for me but she'd never slap anyone. She'd always go and grab the teacher." "Okay mom, I see your point," replies Screwball. "Can I head off to bed?" "Okay, sure," replies Fluttershy. In her room, Screwball looks at her pictures of herself and her family and friends. "Dad and I are always laughing in these pictures," sighs Screwball, "why would he of all ponies want me to hide my powers since he uses his whenever he chooses?" She runs her hoof over the picture. She then picks up another one of her and Dinky. "Dinky and I are always the cutest in pictures together, we're always smiling when we're in pictures together, no matter what happened that day, we'd always get over it over milkshakes and muffins at Sugar Cube Corner. She truly is Derpy's daughter." Screwball giggles then sets the picture back down. She then creates herself a cup of chocolate milk and drinks it before making the cup disappear again. At least in her room, she can use her magic as freely as she so chooses. A few hours later, Discord knocks on Screwy's door. "Come in," says Screwball. Discord then enters the room. "I hope you understand that I do love you and do enjoy your trademark chaos," says Discord as he comes over and sits on her bed. "I know, daddy," replies Screwball. "But you shouldn't use it in public unless you turn them into basketballs, that's always hilarious to watch," adds Discord. This causes Screwy to crack a smile and then the two bust out laughing. "But don't tell your mother I said that." "I won't, I promise," replies Screwball followed by the Pinkie Pie swear. He then sings her to sleep with their lullaby, "Daddy Discord." The next morning, Screwball is up before the sun. She then sneaks out to her secret little corner of the Everfree Forest. There, she goes swimming in her chocolate milk lake and enjoys gumdrops, candy canes, and chocolate milk to her heart's content. Here, she can be free from all the troubles at home and that always makes her smile. Here, she can always be herself because she knows no pony is watching. Alas, she wishes it could be like this all the time. Then, she'd never have to hide her powers...EVER...ever. A Very Screwy Fourth ChapterThat night, Screwball happily snuggles into her bed beside Dinky. They always have sleepovers together and every time, they enjoy them. The rest of her friends are on the floor in their sleeping bags. They watch with wide eyes as Screwball creates them all milkshakes out of thin air and passes them around to all of them with her magic. "Wow! These milkshakes are delicious, thanks Screwy!" says Dinky with a grin. Screwball just laughs. "You're welcome, you're welcome Dinky. I'm glad all of you enjoy the shakes." Screwball sucks on her straw, enjoying her strawberry milkshake to the fullest. A few minutes later, empty glasses sit in front of all of them and Screwball poofs them away with her magic. All the friends then begin telling jokes and sharing ghost stories for several hours before they are disrupted by Discord, who scares them into finally going to sleep for the night. After all, Screwball would rather keep what sanity and sleep she has left than be scared out of her left shred of sanity by her father's scary balloons. The next morning, the friends wake up to the smell of chocolate chip pancakes cooking in the kitchen. The friends all hop out of bed and go full speed ahead to the kitchen where Fluttershy happily places plates of three pancakes in front of each of them. The girls happily eat them, savoring each bite. Once they finish the pancakes, they go to the bowling room in the castle and play several rounds. Fluttershy is glad to see her daughter so happy and accepting that she's different from everypony else. To her, that is clearly progress and progress, when it comes to her daughter, makes her smile. A Very Screwy Fifth ChapterA week later, Screwball is enjoying a sleepover at Dinky's. "I'm so glad the sleepover is at your place this time around, no balloons to haunt my nightmares here," says Screwball relieved. "Me too, your dad's balloons are scary," replies Dinky. The two then begin to tell ghost stories and crack jokes. They even snack on muffins, popcorn, chocolate and candy as they enjoy a movie. "I'm glad you're my best friend," says Screwball. "Me too," replies Dinky before taking a bite out of a muffin. Meanwhile in the main room, Derpy is staring at the wall at a picture of Doctor Whooves with tears in her eyes. "When are you coming home?" she sighs. "Our daughter needs her father, she hardly knows you." She then goes and walks over and sits on the couch. All of a sudden, Dinky notices the sound of her mother crying. "I'll be right back," she says to Screwball, "I need to go and see if mom is okay." Screwball nods. "I understand Dinks," Screwball replies. "Thanks for understanding, Screwy," replies Dinky as she goes downstairs and checks on her mom. In the living room, Dinky goes and sits by her mom. "Momma, are you okay?" She asks. "No, not really, I miss your father," Derpy replies. "He hasn't been home in months. I can't help but worry. He probably got sucked into a time portal again." Dinky gives her mother a hug and comforts her for a few minutes before returning back upstairs to Screwball. "Is your mother alright?" asks Screwball. "Yeah, father has just been gone a lot lately, likely sucked into a time portal is all, she always takes it rather hard," replies Dinky. "Well, your dad is a time lord pony after all," replies Screwball. "True," replies Dinky laughing. The two then start the movie back up again and get back to enjoying their snacks. The two are glad they're the closest and bestest of friends and they'd truly have it no other way. A Very Screwy Second ChapterThe next day, Screwball is at a sleepover with Dinky at Derpy's place. "Do you think I'm a monster, Dink?" asks Screwball. "No Screwball, you're just different, there's nothing wrong with that," replies Dinky. "Yes there is, considering I'm only different because I have the same powers as my father and well, you've seen what his powers can do," replies Screwball. The two then change the subject. They instead talk about the upcoming school carnival that they're both very excited about. It's the one time, Screwball feels, that she can really let loose and be herself. "What game should we do for the carnival, Screwy?" asks Dinky. "We can do the dunk tank," says Screwball. "Cinnabon is already doing that," replies Dinky. "Then, how about dart the clown?" asks Screwball. "That's not going to end well for any pony," replies Dinky. "How about a grab a sweet claw game?" asks Screwball. "Now you're talking," replies Dinky. "Do a claw game with chocolate bars, ring pops, and even toys and trinkets, great idea, Screwy!" Screwball produces the claw machine filled with everything Dinky said except the candy. She'll add that in the day of the carnival, that way it doesn't melt. "We make a great team, Dink," says Screwball. "Don't I know it," replies Dinky with a giggle. They then high hoof. A few minutes later, the two tired fillies fall fast asleep. They can't wait until the school carnival next week especially Screwball. A Very Screwy Third ChapterA week later, it's finally the day of the school carnival. Dinky and Screwball are happily setting up and filling their claw machine using Screwball's magic. About fifteen minutes later, the carnival opens to the public. Everypony happily throws balls to dunk the colts into the dunk tank. Happy parents and infants do the crafts together. Pony after pony enjoys doing the claw game full of sweets, puzzles, games, and toys. Screwball even makes balloon animals for everypony as an added bonus. Screwball can't help but smile, same for Dinky. A few minutes later, Twilight walks up to the girls stand and plays their claw game. She wins herself a puzzle. She then plays a second round and wins a Starswirl doll. Over this one, Twilight flips out. She then walks away with her two prizes. Screwball is just glad she got some attention from some pony she knows. About two minutes after Twilight left the claw machine, Fluttershy and Pinkie come over to Screwball's station to give her claw game a go. Screwball can't help but smile. She's glad her mom finally agreed to come over to her station. Fluttershy happily wins a butterfly toy from the claw game. Pinkie then gives it a go and wins a lollypop, ring pop, and chocolate bar. The two then smile, take their prizes, and go off to talk with their friends. The carnival continues for several more hours. Every pony continues to play games and eat snacks. All the foals smile as they interact with the booths and the food ponies. All the parents watch as their children enjoy themselves. Carnival day is always a much loved tradition held by the school and now Screwball, looking around her, knows why.
