Butterfly's Story
New life?
Previous ChapterNext ChapterAfter Butterfly's violent killing spree, she decided to change up her looks so nopony would recognize her. She dyed black streaks in her pink mane to represent the darkness in her heart and becomes emo. She wanted Ponyville to know she shouldn't be messed with, and how much she hated everything! She was so dedicated to this thought, she bought goth makeup and it runs down her eyes. She also purchased glasses on the side because she couldn't see well without them, being secluded in the dark for half her life and all.
"I hate myself. I wish I was never born!" Butterfly muttered when she bumped into a familiar face. "Get out of my way!" she snarled, before freezing up. Wait...she knew this pony! no..it couldn't have been.
"AUNTIE RAINBOW DASH!?" Butterfly exclaimed, dropping her razor. "I-Your still around?" Rainbow acted confused, not recognizing Butterfly with her new changes. "Huh? Do you know me or something? hey wait, I don't remember being an aunt."
"Wait, you don't remember me? Dash, it's me Butterfly. Fluttershy's daughter!" Butterfly explained, clinging to the hope the cyan pegasus would remember her name. It had been so long since she was last in Ponyville, she wouldn't blame Rainbow for forgetting everything about her. She knew she wasn't good enough to be memorable.
"Hey wait, I remember you now! you were the foal with the chaos magic my friend had to give up." Rainbow gasped. "I-how did you find Ponyville? you were sent away to a new family and everything!"
"No, I wasn't!" Butterfly groaned. "I was stuck in that shithole until I had to run away! My foster mommy nearly violated me and my sisters.." her eyes grew crazed remembering their gruesome demises. "Bullied me until I eventually ran away..."
"Aw! that sounds terrible Butterfly, sorry to hear about that. But why did you turn emo because of it? you know that's not exactly considered cool around here anymore? maybe you should ditch the edgy makeup and black hair. The glasses are pretty nice on you though so make sure to keep those."
"You can't tell me what to do! you don't know what it's like to be me or see the things I have!" Butterfly shot back. "Nevermind that, d-do you still have my mommy's phone number? Fluttershy's? please tell me you do!" Butterfly pleaded. If Rainbow still did, she could get back in contact with her! and tell her everything that happened after she decided to throw her out of her life.
"Oh yeah actually, we still talk." Rainbow smiled and reached into her mane to grab a notebook and quill. She scribbled some numbers down and passed them to the emo pony. "It's Fluttershy's phone number. You can call her using my phone." Rainbow explained and tossed it to her. Rainbow Dash threw it at her so Butterfly had to grab it before it fell to the ground and shattered.
"Oh thank you Rainbow Dash!" Butterfly beamed. It had been so long since she actually smiled, she had forgotten what it felt like. "I'll call her up right away, oh Fluttershy, how I've waited for this day! there's so much I have to tell you! you were right, we are going to be able to see each other again, I knew I shouldn't have ever given up!" she said aloud as she grabbed the phone. "Come on answer me...answer me.."
"Hello?" a soft voice picked up. Butterfly felt her wings sprout up with glee. "MOMMY! it's really you! I-I missed you so much!" Butterfly started. "Do...you have the wrong number? wolf sisters, is this you prank calling me again?" Fluttershy asked.
'Wolf sisters- wha? no! Fluttershy it's me your daughter BUTTERFLY. You better remember me!" she said. How could Fluttershy forget her own voice? she guessed it had changed a lot since she was a foal, it wasn't nearly as high-pitched. "I've been looking for you my entire life! well sort of, I got stuck living in Everfree for a long time but forget about that, can I meet you up somewhere? I really want to see you again."
"O-Of course! oh Butterfly I'm so sorry about what I did to you when you were just a foal. Rainbow Dash told me it was the only way and I was overcome with paranoia. I didn't think there were any other options. Let's meet eachother at the Icecream Shake Parlor, alright?"
"Sounds good!" Butterfly agreed and hung up, passing the device back to Dash. "Thanks Rainbow, you're a life saver. I have to get to the Ice cream parlor now, do you know where it is?"
Rainbow thought for a moment. "Oh yeah! it's two lefts and a right. It's shaped like a giant orange and pink milkshake with a straw and cherry coming out of it so it's hard to miss. I'll catch you around later Butters, alright?"
"Okay, bye." Butterfly waved before following Rainbow's directions. Surely enough, there was the Ice cream parlor, she hoped she didn't get there before Fluttershy. She knew she lived farther away then the other ponies. It would be really awkward barging in without ordering anything and sitting there waiting aimlessly.
"Butterfly! Oh it's really you!" Fluttershy called out in joy and hugged her as she opened the glass doors. Butterfly was overcome with happiness, finally reunited with her mother. "Oh, Mommy! it's really you!"
"You've grown so much!" Fluttershy observed checking her out. "Hey, what's with the black streaks in your mane and the glasses? you didn't have these before." Butterfly blushed. "Oh uhm...I decided to change my look a little. I hope you don't mind."
"Hm, well I never imagined you as an emo before, I guess that will happen if you have no parents. How was the foster home? did they treat you well?"
Butterfly felt the urge to smack the milkshake she had got received off the counter. How could Fluttershy be so moronic to ask her something like that? did any pony ENJOY being stuck in a foster home? "Not fun at all! they bullied me and I was ignored every day. They didn't even congratulate me when I got my cutie mark.." she said, revealing it. "It's two hearts, see?"
"It's beautiful! and it suits you too. I'm sorry I couldn't have been there to see you get it, I would have been very proud of you. I'm sorry I messed up your life at such a young age, it's messed with my head for years. I knew I should have just followed my gut and kept you, but I was so scared Discord was telling the truth when he said he'd return for you."
"Hey speaking of him, are you married again?" Butterfly asked. Really hoping Fluttershy and him made up and got back together. It would be a dream come true if Discord and Fluttershy loved each other again! "Oh yes actually, I am. I managed to get my life together after our departure and I was able to settle into a better life."
"Really? So dad is back!? that's great!" Butterfly cheered and jumped out of her seat with joy. "Take me there right now, I want to see him!"
Fluttershy's smile faded a little. "Well, it might not be what you're expecting but we'll talk about it once we get there. I'll pay for our drinks." she offered, grabbing a few bits out of her purse and settling them down on the counter. As they walked back to Fluttershy's cottage, Butterfly was struck with memory after happy memory. Fluttershy's cottage was so much nicer then that dirty old bubblegum house. Her house was lively, full of creatures of all kinds and it was a bright healthy green.
"I missed this place so much!" Butterfly smiled. "Hey, do you still have the backyard? now that i'm back I could probably continue my gardening." she asked, really hoping Fluttershy hadn't dug it up once she wasn't in the picture anymore. "Of course, but Butterfly," Fluttershy breathed, latching onto her hoof and yanking it. "Listen to me."
"What? what's wrong? why can't I go inside?" she paused, staring at her mother with concern. Fluttershy nudged her head near the door. "Look, things have changed since you were last here. There's new people in the house, and well, Discord is not going to be here. But, your stepdad will be!"
"What do you mean?" Butterfly yelped. "I wanted to see my real dad, not some replacement!" Fluttershy kept a confident grin. "Don't worry, You'll love him. He's nice like me. I promise." As much as Butterfly wanted to take her mother's reassurance, a twinge of bitterness made her think otherwise. She didn't want a stepdad, she wanted Discord. She wanted him to finish teaching her about her powers now that she was old enough. Didn't Fluttershy know if she didn't learn more ponies could be...oh right, she had to keep that a secret. Nopony could know what she did to her sisters.
"I guess we'll see," Butterfly murmured. This new dad better has been as good as her old one! she remembered what having a new mom was like, awful. She got stuck with a neglectful predator who wasn't even a pony! She HATED humans! it didn't help the only one she ever knew was her stupid foster mom either! opening the door, the two yellow pegasi entered.
"Oh my goodness, Fluttershy split into two!" two anthropomorphic wolves gasped. Butterfly had no idea what they were doing in her mom's house. She knew Fluttershy loved animals, but furries? Where did they even come from?
"Mom! Who are they?" Butterfly pointed. "Why are there furries here?"
"Oh, aha, I almost forgot to tell you. These are your new step sisters. I got them right after I gave you away. Don't worry, I know they look scary but they're very affectionate! This is the blue wolf sister and that's the pink wolf sister. Yes, those are the real names."
"But-but the last time I had siblings they were bullies and super abusive toward me! I don't want anymore!" unless they were like Tree.. her thoughts finished. Having her trust broken over and over, meeting new ponies-or creatures felt like a nightmare. Why couldn't Fluttershy have just waited for HER to return? why did she need all these new kids?
"Oh, I've always wanted a pony for a sister!" the blue wolf sister exclaimed and both of them rushed up to her and tackled her to the ground. For a second Butterfly thought they were going to maul her to death but all they did was lick her all over like puppies who didn't know what stop meant quite yet. "Please don't lick me!" she said. Their sharp claws digging into her fur hurt!
"UGH! Who is THAT!?" a sarcastic voice gasped from across the room in disgust. Butterfly turned her head to see a pompous-looking cat perched up on the worn sofa, looking at her with disapproval. She recognized it as Opal, who was Rarity's cat. "Why is Rarity's cat here?" Butterfly asked. She never liked her, but she didn't remember her being able to talk either!
Fluttershy looked visibly annoyed at Opal being there. "Your new sister, bitch!" she screamed at the cat and grabbed her by the tail. "YOU CAN NEVER JUST KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT CAN YOU!?" Opal dangled and looked scared as Fluttershy slammed her into the microwave and turned it on. She immediately exploded as blood dripped out of the microwave.
Butterfly didn't really care about the siblings, she just wanted to get to the part where she met her dad. "Hey Mom, this is nice and wall, but where is my stepdad? I want to see him," she asked, trying to advert her eyes from the blood-soaked microwave as tufts of white fur fell out of it.
"Oh, he's coming upstairs right now! He just wanted you to get to know his daughters first. He wants to make sure everybody gets along in love and harmony!" Fluttershy explained as she turned to the staircase. Butterfly's eyes widened when she realized it was Rarity's brother! She didn't know him that well but of all people, him? And he was a human too! NOO!
"Yeah, who the fuck is this." Rarity's brother said. "I don't want it," he said arms crossed! Butterfly gasped. Making there was some kind of mistake, this COULDN'T have been her dad, she wouldn't entertain the thought for merely a second! "Who's this?" Butterfly demanded. "Why is Rarity's brother here!?"
"I'm Fluttershy's husband who the fuck are you and why do you have black hair like me." he said so mad. "WHAT! NO-MY MOM MARRIED YOU!?" Butterfly stammered. "But-But whyy!? your not like my real daddy at all! and your a stinky human!"
Fluttershy piped in, oblivious to Butterfly's devastation. "Isn't it obvious? she's your new daughter! we've been reunited after years. Oh yeah your stepdads name is valdroxx by the way."
BUT BUTTERFLY THOUGHT THAT NAME WAS DUMB! THE FUCK DID VALDROXX EVEN MEAN?? IT WASNT EVEN A WORD! "GRR but mom he's ugly!" Butterfly argued. "I don't want him taking care of me. He'll be just like my fostermom!"
"Butterfly!" Fluttershy scolded. "You haven't even met him yet! he's not abusive like your fostermom. He's sweet and funny and way better than Discord and his carrot-sized penis." "Well I guess I'm your new dad now," he told Butterfly.
"Now while you two meet, I have to clean the blood out of the microwave. I will be right back!" Fluttershy waved, walking off and leaving Butterfly alone with her stepdad. Valdroxx then said to Butterfly. "I already hate everything about you. You aren't my seed you came out of your mother and that goat thing with wings."
He then beat the shit out of Butterfly with his bare fists! and this hurt worse than any weak ass punch Butterfly's fostermom could ever throw at her. "Valdroxx I was here before you!" Butterfly said. "No you weren't I dated Fluttershy back in highschool but I got arrested."
Just then, valdroxxes sister Rarity comes in. "Oh hello Butterfly darling, you've grown so much! do you remember me? I was Rarity. Fluttershy has to go out today for dinner with her friends so I will be the babysitter. Would you and your sisters like to go to the mall with me this afternoon?"
Butterfly shot up with excitement. "Oh yes Rarity, I love shopping at the mall!" she couldn't wait to go back to the goth store to buy some more grunge clothing. She could already imagine all of the outfits they had lined up in the stores, just begging for her to buy them!
But valdroxx refused to come with them he fucking hates Butterfly that much. He can't even look at her and he goes back on his computer as they leave. It made Butterfly a little sad, she felt hated all over again like in the fosterhome but pushed the saddening thoughts away. Maybe her sisters wouldn't be that bad, even if they weren't ponies.
"So how did you get that cutie mark on that massive, plump, youthful ass of yours?" Rarity asked Butterfly as they walked up to the mall parking lot. "Oh! well...I don't really want to talk about it." Butterfly sighed, and that's when she looked up to see the mall. It was white with rainbows all over it, and looked massive from afar!
"It's huge!" Butterfly gawked in amazement. "I love it!" dashing into the giant building, she raced into the petstore, animals were her favorite thing in the world. "Oh, I can't wait to see all the cute animals!" she grinned, not realizing that Rarity and the wolf sisters didn't follow her in. " But as she walked past the animals were repulsed by her. They growled in cages and birds died on their perches as Butterfly approached. She saw their little bodies fall to the floor and was so confused.
"Wh-what? why don't they like me?" she said to herself. Was she too scary with all this goth makeup on? they used to love her before! Then some broke loose from the cages and bit her all over. "ow, ow ok I'll leave!" she told them, hoping they'd understand. "I guess I'm too ugly for even animals to like me.."
Deciding to check up on her older sisters, who she hadn't really gotten to talk to yet, she caught them hanging around one of the clothes stores. "Oh! there they are!" she said and hopped up the stairs, trying to reach them. "Oh Butterfly dear! there you are, we're just looking for some dresses. Yes I make my own but sometimes..when there are too many orders I have to buy some and pretend I made them. Don't tell anybody or else."
Butterfly shrugged. "Oh, okay. Well I guess I'll just look around while you do that." She didn't even know where to start! the clothing store was massive! dresses and shirts of all kind were at all turns. She then saw the wolf sisters tear apart an entire clothing department fighting over a yellow and pink dress. "No I saw it first!" one said.
"No you didn't, I did! let it go!" the blue one argued. They tossed and pulled at it like a game of tug of war. Butterfly wanted to step in and stop them, but memories of defending Tree infront of her fostersisters flashed through her mind, and she froze up with grief. "Please don't.." she whispered but they didn't listen to her. Suddenly, as the pink one stepped backward, her tail swished back and forth in and knocked over a huge clothing racket. It smashed to the floor and all heads turned toward the fighting duo.
"Just get another one you two!" Butterfly complained. The clerk came up and was furious. "ALL OF YOU GET OUT OF MY SHOP RIGHT NOW! YOU ARE BANNED!"
Butterfly flattened her ears in fear. Rarity was going to kill her for this! "No, please, it wasn't me it was them! don't ban me and Rarity, we weren't a part of it!" but the clerk didn't listen. "If this is a family, then yes, all of you still get BANNED."
Upon hearing the word "banned" from her favorite clothing shop Rarity raced over and saw the mess left by the wolves. "BUTTERFLY!" she shouted. "You caused this mess with your chaos magic didn't you!?"
"She did! we saw her do it." The wolf sisters lied. "Wh-you liars!" she turned to them. The dress they made all that fuss over now lay torn on the floor, unwanted. Before she could get a response Rarity slapped her hard across the face. She hit as hard as her brother too. "HOW DARE YOU! I brought you here, treated you right, and then you get me banned from my favorite clothing shop! go wait by the food court while I call your mother!"
"Sorry.." Butterfly teared up and trotted out of the store, refusing to let the rest of her new family see her burst into tears. Curling up next to the garbage cans she wept. She felt so alone. Not once did anybody she stayed with ever love her. She was hated by everybody and blamed over and over! all because she was born with a power she couldn't even control!
"YOU KNOW WHAT! IM TIRED OF EVERYPONY TREATING ME LIKE THE GARBAGE IM SITTING NEXT TO!" Butterfly screamed, flying upward so she was above all the other shoppers. "If you want me to be evil, I WILL BE EVIL!" using her chaos magic, she warped a massive electric pink beam and brought it down on everybody. Shoppers screamed and turned tails, but everything was already exploding.
Objects of all kinds go flying, forcing the wolf sisters and Rarity to have to take cover as everybody is thrown around objects crashing into walls. Some even were knocked over. Butterfly never felt as powerful as she did now! now she was godlike. Trying to calm down, she took deep breath, watching debris fall from the ceiling. It snapped and fell, crushing some ponies under it.
"Oh no..I'm going to get it now!" Butterfly gasped. "Why can't I ever control my anger? now I destroyed the only mall in Ponyville!"
Fluttershy, who had gotten Raritys call arrived at mall. Seeing it destroyed, in panic she rushed in, trying her best to avoid the fallen rubble and destroyed things. "B-Butterfly!? YOU DID ALL OF THIS!?" she gasped, seeing the pink sparks come out of her daughter, her magic not yet wearing off.
"I-mom, I got upset! I'm sorry! everybody was being mean and blaming me for stuff I didn't do and-ugh! I just lost it!" she explained. flapping toward the ground to meet her mothers level. Fluttershy was livid. "YOU KILLED PONIES! we're going to get sued millions of dollars in damage now because of you! how could you? I leave you with Rarity for three hours and I come back to this?"
"I said I was sorry!" Butterfly wailed. "I wasn't thinking clearly!" however, of course, Fluttershy wouldn't believe her. "No you are not! now Rarity will never want to babysit you or her brothers kids ever again and it's all your fault! I thought I told you since the day you were a filly ponies can't see you using chaos magic publicly, now look at what you've done!"
Feeling the shame seep into her, Butterfly lowered her head and some tear drops hit the shattered floors. "I understand.." but Fluttershy wasn't done! "No, you need to be punished for this! a simple grounding won't do. As punishment you are sleeping in the SAME BED as valdroxx."
"NO MOM! NO ANYTHING BUT THAT!" Butterfly screamed. "I can fix the mall with my magic, just give me a chance!" But Fluttershy continued. "No. Also he sleeps without his shirt on always. Nothing that fucking fosterhome did to you gives you an excuse to hurt all these innocent ponies and bomb an entire mall!" having enough, she dragged Butterfly by the wing all the way back home.
