Daughter of the brother Of Discord
Special
Previous ChapterNext ChapterIt was considered, cherry blossom proved to be a very sensitive baby.
It happened when she and screwball were three years old
Cherry blossom was sitting at a corner of her room. When suddenly, a strange looking box appeared in front of her. She examined it, then a message appeared in front of her.
‘’Tap me’’ she did as she read it. Then two eyes stared at her. Then out popped her mischievous twin cousin screwball. It almost Scared cherry blossom to death. She cried.
Screwball realized her mistake immediately.
‘’no! no! no! no! no!’’ Said screwball, trying to calm her cousin down. ‘’ you wake mommy, Daddy, uncle and auntie!’’
Cherry blossom couldn’t stop crying.
Screwball thought of something, then she had an idea.
‘’Hey, Cherry, Watch this!’’
In a flash: she was on a unicycle with plates on her hooves and a pie she was balancing on her nose. Cherry Blossom tilted her head. Then screwball slipped off the unicycle with the objects falling on top of her head: The four plates and then the pie. She made a pose meaning: ‘’Ta – da!’’
Cherry Blossom cried again, this time at full volume. Screwball was not happy but most compassionate to her twin cousin. After all: she was like a little sister to her, only her twin. She would not give up.
Screwball put her hooves on her head. ‘’ think! screwy! Think!’’
Screwball eventually had an idea. Thankfully, screwball had a beautiful Singing voice. And she made up a song named ‘’cousin screwball’’ she was waiting until the girls’ birthday, but that was an emergency.
She started off in a very soothing voice.
So here we are again.
We are so close around the bend.
We’ll tear the world apart.
And chaos will not ever end.
Cherry blossom stopped. And started to listen.
Our friendship will not die
And then we’ll learn just how to fly.
Cause’ I am your cousin screwball
And you *puts hoof on cherry blossom’s shoulder*
Are a piece of me *puts another hoof to heart*?
Cherry blossom:
Remember when one time
You took me to the day-care play,
We planned out our mischiefs,
And things were never just the same
Our wild pitches flew
Driving the ponies all insane
Cause’ I am your cousin cherry
And you are a piece of me
Screwball and Cherry Blossom:
cause’ we’re cousins forever
and no one’s gonna separate us.
They both laughed and hugged each other
They Were right. No one can separate them.
They were Inseparable. Inseparable that is, inseparable for mischief.
When Tara, Fluttershy, Chillcord and Discord Were sleeping peacefully, until they Heard a cry upstairs in the baby room. When they woke up and looked at each other angrily, they started to fight.
‘’oh, heck NO!’’ said Chillcord.
‘’Oh, heck YES!’’ replied Tara.
‘’No Way, Jose’!’’ Chimed Discord.
‘’Jose’, YES WAY!’’ Yelled Fluttershy.
It Didn’t settle until, they heard A Mischievous giggle and a cry. They looked at Each other and smiled. They went Upstairs to peek at the keyhole at what was Happening. When the duo finished, Tara, Fluttershy and Chillcord looked At Discord and shoved him into the room. As Discord carefully tiptoed nearer to the Cradles, he peeked inside each of them. As he did, he saw screwball and Cherry Blossom sleeping Peacefully in their cribs. He sighed and picked them up in awe, but as he felt them, they were softer than they Usually were. Knowing it was a trick, Discord Searched vigorously around the room until He heard mischievous giggles from above.
He tilted his head up slowly. Screwball was Comforting her cousin, because she knew cherry Was afraid of heights.
‘’aw! Screwy! You do love Your cousin!’’ said Discord as he reached out to the girls, ‘’come to daddy and uncle you Mischievous Little girls!’’.
Screwball gasped, Grabbed Cherry Blossom and zoomed to another direction.\
‘’Oh! So that’s how you wanna play? Huh Missy? C’mere!’’
Discord flew to where the girls were and tried to grab them, But Screwball was too fast. Discord Chased Them All Around But managed to get his antlers stuck.
‘’ get back here!’’ Said discord, angrily.
As the two fillies flew wildly across their room, Discord managed to gradually get his antlers Loose. Screwball handled her cousin carefully.
Cherry looked at her wings and started flapping Them. She started to smile every second she flapped Her wings, while holding her cousin’s hoof.
‘’Screwy wook! I can Fwy!’’ said Cherry Blossom Excitedly.
Screwball looked at her cousin, smiled, and let her go. As she did, cherry blossom Zoomed around the room by her cousin’s side. They laughed While looking at each other with closed eyes. Until they ran Into Discord, who had his arms crossed and finger tapping on his arm.
‘’Uncle! Uncle! I can FLY!’’ said cherry blossom, Reaching out to hug Discord.
‘’Oh really!? Well done Cherry Blossom, my little abomination niece!’’ said Discord, Accepting The hug.
But as he did, he sniffed her diaper. ‘’but you need A diaper change!’’
‘’But….I..’’ said Cherry Blossom, with tears Welling up her eyes.
‘’oh, no! ‘’ said Discord.
‘’OH, no!’’ said Screwball, Covering her eyes.
Cherry blossom let out a big cry, A cry that you could hear from all canterlot. Screwball glared accusingly at her father, as if to say: ‘’ Really?! I just tamed her!’’
Discord shrugged. ‘’It’s not my fault! She’s too sensitive!’’
Screwball rolled her eyes, then turned back to her crying cousin. In a soothing voice, Screwball managed to calm her crying cousin. Discord went in awe as screwball and Cherry Blossom Change each other’s Diaper.
Eventually, they went to their beds and their eyes closed. Discord put pacifiers in their mouths and they sucked them pleasurely.
‘’sleep well,’’
Despite the complications, Fluttershy, Discord, Chillcord and Tara were happy to have their little daughters and did their best to keep them happy. They both have an addiction of sugar, you see, whenever they eat too much sugar, they get hype, I mean, REALLY hype. Their powers, were as powerful as Flurry heart’s when she was a filly. Once they had learned how to teleport, they took the game hide – and- seek at new heights. They would often get restless, but Fluttershy was able to calm them down with them tenderness. When that did not work, she would use the Stare on them. Discord was grateful that Screwball had not inherited his immunity. Chillcord realized that Cherry Blossom’s Stare was more powerful than Fluttershy’s. So Cherry Blossom would always protect her twin cousin from Screwball’s mother.
The biggest issue was finding a babysitter. While Pinkie was the most eager, not even she could handle the fillies’ unpredictability. Rainbow Dash had to rest up for her delivery, Twilight was too busy on her studies and Rarity was too occupied with her store. Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo had tried, but not even three normal ponies could control these powerful, ecstatic infants.
Applejack proved to be the best babysitter, with the assistance of Spike (Caramel had a tour in Appleloosa). As she had to raise Apple Bloom from infancy, she had the most experience, though her sister could not do magic. Even though it was a pain searching for Them whenever they disappeared, she would not lose her patience and actually found ways to calm the fillies down. The cowgirl considered them quite adorable.
"I wish we had one," she had once said while cradling Screwball.
She had forgotten that Spike had been standing right next to her cradling Cherry Blossom. "What?"
Screwball and Cherry Blossom were excited about their powers, not realizing how unusual it was for fillies like them, and they got the most excited whenever Dinky was over. As Fluttershy and Tara had promised, they and Derpy would bring their daughters together for play dates. Screwball and so adored her little playmates and was fascinated with her funny yellow eyes and Cherry Blossom’s light blue eyes. She would stare at them for ages and wonder what the unicorn and alicorn were looking at with two eyes, one eye or the other.
She would amuse her playmates with her powers, making their toys levitate and circle in the air. Dinky would clap her hooves in pleasure. Cherry Blossom amused them both by making herself teleport. The only magical surges the unicorn had had were when her pacifier, the same one Screwball and Cherry Blossom had given her when they met in the hospital, was out of reach.
When Rainbow Dash's twins arrived, Screwball and Cherry Blossom were given two additional playmates. They were fraternal twins, a boy named Thunder Dash and a girl named Lightning Dash. They both had their father's light blue coats and their mother's violet eyes. Thunder's mane was streaked with blue, black and purple, while Lightning's was red, orange and yellow.
Screwball and Cherry Blossom took an immediate interest in their wings, finding them similar, yet smaller, to her mother's. The two could fly before they could walk. Screwball and Cherry Blossom were a little over a year old when they had discovered this and were just learning to walk on four legs themselves. They were able to fly at their age too, but Screwball noticed that she did not have wings. They also realized that their eyes looked in the same direction, but they already knew that Dinky's eyes were unique.
Some point at this age, they met a pony they had never seen before and jumped back at the sight of them. their short curly mane was purple with streaks of white and the other had Aqua blue hair, their coat was a light pink and cherry red, but it was their eyes that interested Screwball the most. They were different. They were nothing like Dinky's. They seemed to have no blackness in her eye, only a purple swirl. The other one had a black iris with light blue pupils.
Screwball reached out to touch the filly and at the same time, the filly reached out to touch her. Their hooves met, and Screwball flinched at the smooth texture she was feeling. It was not a hoof, it was glass. Her parents had already observed that Screwball seemed quite intelligent and understanding for a foal her age and it did not take long for her to conclude that the strange filly was indeed her. Cherry Blossom looked at her cousin and pulled her away a little bit. The other filly did the same thing.
That was when they knew.
Fluttershy found her daughter and niece sitting in front of the full-length mirror and flew down to them.
"So, there you are," she said, reaching her hooves out to them. "I've been looking..."
"Differ," Screwball uttered.
‘’Ent.’’ Cherry Blossom finished.
Their mother/aunt blinked in surprise. they had gurgled a few words before, Screwball’s first one being 'Dinky,' much to Discord's displeasure (he had hoped it would be 'Dada'), Cherry Blossom’s was ‘Dada’’ and uncle’’, but this was new.
"What did you say?"
The foal pointed to the mirror. "Differ."
‘’Ent.’’
Their hooves then tapped at the reflection of their eyes.
As Screwball and Cherry Blossom grew older and developed better speech, they began noticing other things that were different about them. Their diet was the first indicator. Their friends always stared at them when they drank their sip cup instead of the milk inside it. Their playmates, their mothers and Their own mothers did not do the things they did. Objects did not appear out of nowhere on their command, nor did they just come to them from afar. It happened to Dinky, but not as much. They noticed their fathers did the same things as Them frequently, even more often.
Ah yes, their dads. They were only starting to realize how different they were from the other ponies: their size, their shape, their appearance, their behavior. They only saw the contrast whenever their mothers or one of the other ponies was next to them.
When she was four, they finally approached Screwball’s parents about this. It was after they read her a bedtime story that she asked.
"Mommy, Daddy?"
"Yes, dear?" her mother responded softly.
‘’Why are Screwy and I different?’’
Discord and Fluttershy paused, their smiles disappearing as they shared a look.
"You're not different, honey," their father/uncle insisted. "You're just...unique."
"Like your friend Dinky," Fluttershy added.
"She doesn’t do magic," Screwball said. "Not like mine or Cherry’s. Twins have no magic. None. Why me? Why my eyes different?"
Her mother glanced to the side. "Sweetie..."
Cherry Blossom pointed to Discord. "Uncle very different."
He winced. "Cherry, I think you..."
"Why?"
The couple looked at each other again and sighed simultaneously.
"Yes, my loves," Fluttershy said. "You, daddy, and uncle are different. As you may have noticed, I am a pegasus, your fathers are draconequus."
Screwball tilted her head. "Like Uncle Spike?"
Her mother laughed. "No, honey. A draconequus. They are wonderful, majestic creatures with incredible powers that can bend reality."
Discord put his paw over his heart. "My dear, you flatter me! Yet your flattery is an understatement. I am the Spirit of Chaos and Disharmony! It is my duty to make the world less boring with my little...quirks. After all, what would this world be without chocolate rain?"
Screwball and Cherry Blossom squealed and kicked their hooves happily in agreement.
"Anyway," Fluttershy continued, "it is very unusual for two different creatures to marry, so when your father and I fell in love, no pony really approved. We found a way through however and had you. You look like a pony, but you have your father's powers. There's never been such a pony born before."
"What your mother/aunt's trying to say is," Discord interrupted, leaning forward to brush his daughter and niece's hair, "you are special, because you are products of two species, two creatures who love each other very much despite their differences."
He smirked as he wrapped his tail around Fluttershy and pulled her closer. She was startled at first but then laughed and kissed him on the snout.
"Your father/uncle's right," she said to the filly.
"Well, duh!" Discord huffed. "Of course, I am!"
She nudged him playfully in the ribs with her elbow. "Don't you worry about being different, honey. Your eyes, your powers are what make you special."
The draconequus leaned forward. "And there's no pony more special than our little Screwball!"
The fillies smiled, assuring them that their words had helped. After their parents/aunt and uncle had kissed them goodnight and turned out the lights, Screwball closed her eyes and sighed contently.
Special. That's what they were. Special.
