Screwball and Mothball were walking up to the “Castle of Chaos” with Moonlight in hoof. As they got to the door, they could hear a large crash and a yell that sounded like Discord. Screwball knocked and opened the door. “Mom, dad?”, she asked, “Is this a bad time?”. She opened the door all the way to see all of the furniture floating with Fluttershy trying to put it back on the ground, and Discord was chasing Coco.

“No, no!”, Fluttershy said, flying towards them, “Although, Mothball, can you help me with the furniture? And Screwball, can you help your father catch your sister?”

“Uh-”, Mothball muttered, “We brought Moonlight...”

“Moonlight? “, Coco muttered

Suddenly Coco popped up in front of Moonlight.

“Moony!”

“Coco!”

Then they popped out of sight. Screwball could hear a faint pop in the room above.

“Good,”, sighed Fluttershy, “Now to-”

“Done”, Mothball beamed, standing next to the furniture that was now back on the ground.

“Oh”, Fluttershy said gratefully , “Thank you so much Mothball.”

“Oh”, Mothball replied, “It was nothing Mrs. Drac, Draco, Draco Malfoy? Sorry, I guess I still can’t say your last name.”

“ Don’t worry”, Fluttershy answered, “Just call me Fluttershy, I am your mother-in-law after all”

“Good”, Screwball thought, “Mothy has mom on a first name basis. Now he just needs to get dad on a-”

“Get dad on a what?”, Discord asked.

“Nothing!”, Screwball answered, startled.

“Oh, sure.”, Discord said with a smirk.

They suddenly heard a yell coming from upstairs.

“Mom!”, Moonlight yelled from upstairs.

“Oh well, duty calls!”, Screwball said, relieved that something could take her away from her and her father’s awkward moment.

Screwball teleported upstairs, “What seems to be the problem girls-”, she asked. But she stopped as she saw the girls were not in the room.

“Mom! Dad! Mothy!”, she yelled to her family downstairs.

They immediately popped up, “ You called?”, Discord asked but stopped when he saw the room around him. There was a tall hole in the wall with burn marks around it, the window was broken, there was green spider web goo everywhere, and the furniture was broken all over the floor.

“What happened...”, whispered Fluttershy.

“What happened here?”, Mothball muttered as he walked over to a puddle of green goo. “Oh no”, he thought as he picked up a piece of the goo. Behind him, Discord’s eyes were flaming.

“I think I know who did this.”, both Discord and Mothball said together.

“No”, Screwball whimpered, “was this Crysali-”

“Don’t say her name!”, Discord yelled.

FLASHBACK

-we are taken back to the battle in Disney Fanatic 2468’s Daughter of Discord between Discord and Chrysalis. Chrysalis has pinned Discord and is about to zap him.-

“No!”, Fluttershy shouted as she flew to save Discord.

“Mom! No!”, Screwball shouted, seeing her mom flying into battle.

Fluttershy pushed Discord out of the way and...

“Wha!”, she screamed as she took the blast.

“Fluttershy!”, Discord yelled in vain.

He rushed over to his fallen bride.

“No, no, no, no, no! Fluttershy...”, he whimpered.

“Discord...”, she whispered.

“Yes, I’m here!”, he answered

“Take care of the kids, they need you..”, Fluttershy whispered to him.

“No, don’t talk like that! I can save you!”, Discord said while trying to heal her with his magic.

“Dad, Chrysalis stole our magic...”, Screwball croaked. She cried and cried.

“Discord”, Fluttershy said.

“Yes, Fluttershy?”, he answered.

“You are the only stallion I ever loved..”, she whispered. She sat up, kissed him and fell backwards into Discord’s arms.

“Fluttershy?”

“Mom?”

“Fluttershy!”

“Mom!”

The rest of the mane six murmured and cried. Discord held his “dead” wife in his hands with Screwball crying over her body. Discord gently set her body down and stood up to face Chrysalis.

“Now you know what it’s like to have your heart ripped out of your chest!”, she spat.

One battle Song Later....

“Bwhahahahaha!”, Chrysalis laughed, “ Say hello to your wife for me!”

-Zrrrr!- Chrysalis shot another blast that hit Discord straight in the chest.

Earlier....

-we are now in a forest, Chrysalis is standing over Screwball. Chrysalis just revealed herself as Zany.-

“What have you done with my brother?!”, Screwball yelled, staring straight into the face of Chrysalis.

“Oh, I just had some of my guards pluck him out of his crib.”, Chrysalis answered, “The hard part was keeping him entertained. Although, foals give love so freely.”, she licked her lips, “Delicious.”

PRESENT DAY

“She has torn this family apart too many times.”, Discord sighed.

“What are we going to do?”, Fluttershy asked.

“We are going to rescue them!”, Discord shouted.

“Ok”, Fluttershy responded, “I will go get my friends and the elements.”

“We might not need them”, Mothball muttered, “but it might be good just in case.”

Fluttershy and Discord left the castle, leaving Screwball and Mothball in Coco’s room.

“Oh Mothy,”, Screwball whispered, “I’m worried, what if-”

“She’s strong”, Mothball replied, “Don’t worry.”

“Alright.”, Screwball surrendered.
