Living up

You're what?!

When Spike woke up he saw Twilight was already out of bed. He yawned and walked down the stairs and expected her to be studying again. Instead he saw her read a book, but he wasn't surprised. Seeing Twilight read is a common sight.

"Good morning Twilight."

"Good morning Spike. Would you please sent this to the princess?" She levitated a letter over to him.

"Okay." He inhaled deeply and exhaled a green flame, turning the letter into smoke.

"Spike, will you tell the girls to come over here? I have some important news."

"What kind of news?"

"I'll tell you when the girls are here and I have everything ready. And go to the hospital and ask for somepony called doctor Black."

"Sure, I guess." He walked out to gather the girls. 'I wonder what's so important. Twilight has bin acting weird the last few days.'

'So she decided to tell them. Smart girl. But I'm not surprised. She does read a lot after all.'

"Discord, I know you're here. I marked a spot on the floor. Go stand on it and wait untill I tell you I'm done, okay?"

'Wonder what she came up with. Maybe give me another body? ... Boy, I sure miss being insane.'

He stood on the marked spot and noticed Twilight's horn lighting up. He raised his eyebrow in confusion. Suddenly a bright purple beam came out of Twilight's horn and hit him straight in the chest. A sudden pain went through his body and he fell over from the blast.

"Where the heck was that for?!" He yelled.

"Quiet! Other ponies might hear you!"

"Wait, you can see me? And hear me?"

"I can because I used a spell that is supposed to make ghost or other spirits visible. Since your body is still in Canterlot gardens you pretty much fit the description of a ghost. Or should I say poltergeist?"

"Aha, smart girl. But why?"

"So Celestia AND you can help explain things to my friends. Celestia should be here any min-" She was cut of by a bright white light appearing next to them. When the light dispersed an angry looking Celestia was clearly visible.

"Discord! What did you do to my student?!"

"Please princess! Keep it down. Only you and I know Discord is free and maybe it's better to keep it that way dor now!"

"But-"

"Celestia, please let her finish... Damn! I miss my insanity!"

"You see, princess, it all went like this..."

An explanation later.

"... And that's what happened." After Twilight had explained everything the princess had clearly calmed down.

"So that's why Discord is here."

"Yep, that pretty much sums it up. Now all we got to do is wait for Twilight's friends." Discord said lazily. In response they heard the front door open.

"Twilight! The girls are here!" She heard Spike say.

"Stay here Discord. I'll cal you when I need you, okay?"

"Sure. I'll just read for a bit." Discord flew over to a bookcase and picked the first book he could find. Twilight and the princess walked down and saw the others waiting. The girls eyes went wide but Black just sat there with a knowing look in his eyes.

"Princess! Twilight, why didn't you tell me the princess was coming?" Rarity said.

"It wasn't planned. But that's not important, you see... I... Ugh. I can't do this. Black, you tell them."

"Of course."

"Tell what? Why can't ya just tell us yerself?" Applejack asked.

"Because. Black, go ahead."

"She's pregnant."

"You're what?!" The girls and Spike yelled. Fluttershy just said: "Oh... My..."

"Why didn't you tell us?" Rainbow said.

"This asks for a 'congratulations with your foal' party!" Guess who.

"Yer too young!" Applejack yelled.

"Why didn't you tell me?" Spike said with a sad look on his face.

"I cannot believe this, darling." Rarity said dissaproving.

"You are supposed to be helping her, not making her feel bad." A familiar and mocking voice said.

"Discord! Don't worry girls I'll get him!" Rainbowvflew straight at and through him, hitting the wall face first.

"Ugh, I didn't need to see that you know." He said while shuddering.

"What do you mean?"

"Since I am in ghost form I can see your insides when my head goes through you."

"What are ya doing here?! Are ya going to apmake fun of Twilight?"

"Now why would I make fun of her when she's bearing my son?"

In response Pinkie's mane deflated, Rarity got even paler, Fluttershy huddled up in a ball, Applejack turned green and Rainbow mumbled something that sounded a lot like: "Think happy things. Think happy things."

"No, we didn't have sex or anything like that."

"Either way, it's still sick." Raibow said.

"But how did ya make her pregnant id you didn't do... it."

"He didn't make her pregnant. It went like this..." Celestia started explaining.

And another explanation later.

"And that's how Equestria was made." Discord finished.

"Okay so... Wait, what?" Rainbow said.

"Hey! You stole my line!" Pinkie said.

"So it was an accident. But why are ya helping?"

"Reason numero one: To protect my son. Reason dos: I also lost a big part of insanity when you sealed me away. Reason number three: I don't have a lot to do."

"Okay. But why are ya here doctor?"

"Because Twilight needs all the help she can get. And I'm sure you are all going to help her, right?" The way Black said convinced the girls they'd better help Twilight even if they didn't want to.

"She's our friend! No way I'm going to let her down!" Rainbow said.

"Good. Now if you'll excuse me, I still need to find my insanity. It's boring to be sane." Discord went invisible again and flew away.

"Twilight, when is the foal going to be born?" Rarity asked with a glint of exitement.

"In one month. Apparently Anarchy grows twice as fast as a normal foal."

"Anarchy? Why would ya call him that? It reminds me too much of Discord." Applejack said.

"I know, but Discord already told him his name. He won't listen to any other name. And he understands that because he has the inteligence of a ten year old."

"Now we've sorted this out I'll be leaving with the chaos ore." Celestia picked up the rock and dissapeared with a bright flash.
