Sketching a Plan

Canterlot Statue Gardens was a marvelous place to take in the scenery. Statues here, statues there, statues everywhere! Some were historic. Some were symbolic. Some were too life-like to be true. Most of the statues were carved. But some…were different. Different…in a way that is said to be a mystery. On this day, in Canterlot a certain statue was shifting, slowly but surely. And that’s where our story begins:

“Hey, Copper Helmet!” one guard said to the other, smiling brightly.

Copper Helmet looked at the other guard, “Yes, Shimmer Shield?” he said, wearing a solemn expression on his face.

Shimmer Shield puffed out his chest, “I am getting a promotion!” he said, grinning widely, which annoyed Copper.

Copper’s mouth melted into a frown, “How did you get a promotion?” he said sternly.

“Well, Princess Celestia decided that I was an excellent guard. I get to guard the castle gates now!” Shimmer boasted. “That’s awesome, isn’t it?”

Copper groaned and stared at one of the statues.

Shimmer tapped him on the shoulder, “Well?”

Copper turned back to Shimmer, and carefully punctuating each word he said, “I. Don’t. Care.”

Shimmer’s face became cross, “Why not?” he said, staring straight into Copper’s green eyes. “Wouldn’t you like it if you got promoted?”

“YES, AND I DESERVED IT MORE THAN YOU!” Copper pounded the ground with his hoof.

Shimmer’s face reddened, “No, you doze off every time it’s your watch! You can’t be trusted!”

*Crack.*

Neither one seemed to notice the odd noise, but kept on arguing. Shimmer threw one insult. Copper flung back another. It went on for quite a while. But the noise continued to increase in volume. Finally, the two came to a conclusion.

“YOU’RE THE WORST FRIEND EVER! I NEVER WANT TO SEE YOU AGAIN!”

“FINE!” Shimmer stormed off to Celestia knows where.

Copper pounded his hoof on the ground and left, too. Leaving a huge grudge weighing him down.

*Crack…* All of a sudden…

*Kaboom* A sort of explosion was heard, making stones fall everywhere. One of the statues had mysteriously exploded. When the dust cleared, a strange creature was standing were the statue used to be. He let out a low chuckle.

“BAM!” he said, pretending his curious lion-paw-look-alike was a pistol, he blew on his claw. “I’m back, Equestria! WHOO!” he jumped up in the air, flapping his two wings that were completely unalike.

“Who’s there?” came a cry from one of the guards. The creature halted.

“What shall I do?” he thought feverishly, “Think, Discord, think!” he knocked his lion paw on his head.

“Show yourself!” the guard’s voice was closer, now.

Discord bit his lip and looked around. A hedge caught his eye; “Aha!” he scampered into it, making sure to hide every inch of himself. Noticing the remains of the exploded statue, he quickly put them together like puzzle pieces, and placed them carefully on their former spot. He smiled deviously.
The guard was now in plain sight, Discord peered out of his hiding place.

“Hello?” the guard said, searching the area. “Is anypony there?” the guard gazed up at the statue. “Huh.” He said, turning around. “Guess not.” The sentry walked back to his place.

Discord shrunk back further into his hiding place and looked up. He could see glistening rays of sun peering into the bush. “Hmm…” he thought. “Freedom would be nice, for a change.” He chuckled softly, “I sure have earned it.” He spread his wings and prepared to take off when-.

“La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la…!” a singing filled his ears, he knew that voice. It was stuck in his memory like wood in a fireplace. He listened closer.

“Pinkie?” he turned around and squinted out of the bush. His ears didn’t deceive him, “Pinkie!” he said, preparing to jump out of the bush. “Wait…” he stopped himself. “I’m a draconiques…And she knows me. I should get a disguise.” He thought for a moment, “Aha!” he said snapping his eagle claw. “I’ll change into a pony!” he thought for another moment, “An Alicorn!” he closed his eyes and began to feel a tingling sensation all over, he opened one eye and discovered a strange bright light all around him. He smiled.
In a few moments, he felt the need to open his eyes. He did so and looked down. “Hooves!” he grinned, “It worked! Now I can say hey to Pinkie!” he crawled out of his bush and looked around, he noticed a small fountain of water and walked over to it. He stared at his reflection and smirked.
Discord was now a brown Alicorn, with a black mane that stood up straight. “Just like my mane as a draconiques!” he pondered. He had the same eyes, and his goat beard remained, he was quite pleased about that. His paws were replaced with hooves, which he found surprisingly easy to walk on. He turned to view his cutie mark. Then he laughed. “Heh. It’s a deck of cards.” He mumbled, looking at it in his reflection. “Well, don’t I look spiffy!” He smirked and turned around.
“Pinkie Pie?” he looked around. Not seeing her, he spread his glossy Alicorn wings and flew upwards. He could see much more of the area up there. Reaching a cloud, he landed on it and began to look around. He didn’t see her. “Huh. Guess I was imagining it. Still it’d be nice to see her again…” he sat on that thought for a few moments. “And that’s what I’ll do! Ponyville, watch out ‘cause here I come!”

Frenemies

Upon seeing Ponyville in sight, Discord landed on a cloud. It pleased him to see the town, even though it wasn’t chaotic. He smiled and started to fly again. Upon reaching the town, he landed. But not three seconds had passed when he was met with a huge smile. Grinning at him with her blue batting eyes, he knew it was her.

Pinkie Pie.

“Hello…!” she said, staring into the disguised draconiques’s eyes. She seemed not to recognize him. If she had she’d probably be begging for chocolate rain by now.

Discord smiled widely, “Hi!” he said.

Pinkie batted her eyes; “Are you new here?” she looked as if she was inching closer to him.

“Why, yes! I am!” Discord waited to see what Pinkie would do next. She gasped and ran off. Leaving Discord quite confused. A few moments later, she returned. Pushing an odd looking object, it looked like a firearm of some sort.

“YEAH!” Pinkie pressed a button and confetti exploded into Discord’s face with a loud noise that sounded like a party horn. “I’m Pinkie Pie! It’s so great to meet you! What’s your name? Where ya from? You movin’ into town? Will you be my friend?” she showered him with endless questions.

“Um…” he looked around for something to be an inspiration for a name. He needed something logical, but somewhat silly. What’s the point, after all, if you have a name and it’s boring? “My name is…”

Two ponies were discussing sales figures at a shop window. Discord noticed them and came up with an idea…

“Dis…my name is Dis…count…Yeah, Discount!” Discord grinned nervously.

Pinkie had an awkward expression on her face, “Discount?” she said, cocking her head.

Discord nodded, “Yup! That’s my name, alright! Do you like cotton candy?”

Pinkie jumped up high, “Great name! And yes, sure I do! Why?” she bounced up and down.

“Just wondering. And thanks!” Discord looked behind Pinkie, on which he noticed a yellow Pegasus talking with a white Unicorn. He froze.

“Hey! I have an idea! I should introduce you to my friends! I’m sure they’ll all like you!” Pinkie smiled.

Discord gulped, “Y-your friends?”

“Yupper dupper!”

“Ah. Um…alright…” Discord blushed.

“Pinkie!” a blue earth pony walked up to Pinkie. Her mane and tail were pink and she was wearing a frosting-stained apron. Her pink eyes were happy and joyful.

“Oh, hey, Ms. Cake! This is Discount! He’s new to Ponyville!” Pinkie explained.

“Oh?” Ms. Cake smiled, “It’s nice to meet you!” she stuck out her hoof.

Discord winced, but shook it. “The pleasure’s…all mine.” He nervously said.

Ms. Cake turned to Pinkie, “Would you mind watching the twins? Mr. Cake and I have to go to Canterlot for the afternoon.”

“Sure! Oh, can Discount come?” Pinkie said, glancing at Discord.

Discord’s mouth twitched, could he really be good with kids? Well, all the ones he had met so far had either laughed or cried. Or laughed so hard they’d cry. Or cry so hard they’d laugh. He really wasn’t sure.

“Fine with me!” Ms. Cake smiled and turned around. Pinkie bounced after her.

“Come on, Dissy!” she turned back to him with a huge grin.

Discord laughed and followed her. Dissy. He hadn’t been called that in a long time…

A/N: Kinda short, I know. But chapter four will be longer! I Pinkie Promise!

Foalsitting

Mrs. Cake entered Sugarcube Corner. Followed by Discord and the very happy Pinkie Pie. “Now, Discount, was it?”

Discord, err, Discount nodded.

Mrs. Cake smiled, “Here’s a list of what you need to do. Pinkie’s memorized it. Right, deary?”

Pinkie nodded, “Noon is lunchtime! 1:00 is play time! Nap at 3:00. Diaper changes at 3:45. Playtime again at 4:00. Dinner at 6:00 and bed by 8:00!” Pinkie recited this from memory. “Any questions?” she asked.

Discord smiled and shook his head, “Nope!”

Ms. Cake smiled, “You’re sure you’ll be alright, then?” she asked the both of them. Pinkie smiled.

“Yeah, we’ll be just fine! Right, Discount?” she turned to him, batting her eyes in that cute manner.

“What she said! He pointed to her, laughing a little.

Pinkie snorted with laughter then turned to Mrs. Cake, “What time do you leave?”

Mr. Cake rushed into the room, “Right now!” he said, giving his wife a look.

Mrs. Cake gasped and ran into the kitchen. Returning with a cart that had a cake on top of it. “Alright, we best be going! The bake sale’s starting in an hour!” she said, pushing the cake cart out the door.

Mr. Cake smiled and followed her, “Good luck with the twins!” he called out.

Discord smiled, “So, where are the little foals?” he didn’t remember them from his last visit to Ponyville. He was actually very eager to meet them.

Pinkie ran over to the stairs, “In their room! Follow me!” she scampered up the stairs, followed by Alicorn Discord.

Discord stepped into the room and smiled, there was a cradle in front of him. He quietly walked over to discover two foals playing quietly. He smiled.

Pinkie popped up beside him, “It’s noon! Lunchtime, everypony!” she looked down at the twins, who squealed with delight at the word “Lunchtime.”

Discord frowned, “What do we feed them?” he asked Pinkie, who giggled.

“Well, duh! Baby food!” she said between giggles.

Discord looked around, “Ok…”

Pinkie laughed, “It’s not up here, silly! Carry Pound Cake and we’ll head downstairs to the kitchen!”

Discord smiled at the white Pegasus in the crib and picked him up.

Pinkie smiled, “Yep, that’s Pound!” she picked up Pumpkin Cake next.

Pumpkin smiled up at Discord and put her hoof in her mouth.

“Let’s go, already!” Pinkie set Pumpkin on her back and started for downstairs. Discord did the same.

Downstairs, Discord and Pinkie walked into the kitchen and set the twins in their high chairs. Pumpkin frowned.

“Food’s comin’! Just wait…” Discord eyed Pinkie. If there was a time to discord her, it’d be now. He smirked.

Pinkie smiled and put set the containers of food down by the twins and opened them. “Eat up!” she said, turning to Discord.

Discord was about to give her the “Swirly Eyes” when something stopped him. Honestly, he really liked her better when she was normal. If she was cranky all the time…what fun would that be? He thought for a moment and decided, she’s fine the way she is.

He felt something on his nose, he looked up.

“Honk! Hello in there! Earth to Discount!” Pinkie was beeping his nose.

Discord blushed and held back a laugh. “Huh?”

“You kinda zoned out for a minute there, Dissy!” Pinkie laughed. “That’s a funny word! Zoned…OUT! Zoned…OUT!” she kept saying.

Discord laughed and was about to check on the foals when, SPLOT! Something landed in his face.

Pinkie gasped and turned to the babies. “Pumpkin! We do not throw things!” she stared at Pumpkin.

Pumpkin frowned and started to cry, provoking Pound to cry as well.

“Oh…” Pinkie groaned.

Discord’s face was covered in mush and he coughed.

“I’m so sorry about them!” Pinkie raced passed him to the sink and soaked a washcloth in it. Returning to Discord, who was sort of disgusted, she wiped off his face and smiled. “All better?” she said sweetly.

Discord looked into her sky blue eyes and suddenly forgot what they were talking about, he said nothing.

“Why do you keep daydreaming?” Pinkie giggled.

“Um…” Discord snapped out of it, “What?” he said.

“Discount! Your blushing!” Pinkie smiled and honked his nose again.

Discord crossed his eyes to look at his nose. “I am!? He asked. Pinkie nodded. “Oh, that water…was…hot is all.” He said slowly.

“Oops! Sorry ‘bout that.” Pinkie apologized. “Didn’t feel hot to me…”

Discord grinned sheepishly, “It’s fine.”

The twins were still bawling. Pinkie smiled at Discord and whispered “Come with me!” he tagged after her. “They love it when I do little shows for them!” she carefully picked up a tan colored sheet and stood on a chair. “Hey, Discount? Could you maybe gimmie that pushpin?”

Discord levitated it with his magic and used it to pin up the sheet. He smiled.

Pinkie got down off the chair, “Thanks!” she scooted the chair to the other end of the curtain’s length and got on it.

“Allow me.” Discord levitated the curtain and the pushpin and pinned the curtain up. “Ta-da!”

“Wow!” Pinkie said, “That’s super duper nice of you! Thanks!” she smiled and jumped off the chair.

“No problem!” Discord smirked. “So, what’re we gonna do with the curtain?”

Pinkie smiled and ran over to the door, she hit the switch. The lights went off. Then she got a flashlight. “Ready?”

“For what?” Discord was confused.

Pinkie snorted; “To cheer up Pound and Pumpkin of course!” she walked behind the two bawling twins and set the flashlight on a table. “Get behind the curtain!” she commanded. Discord ran behind the curtain and sat down. Pinkie turned on the flashlight.

The twins stopped crying.

Discord smiled, “What’d you do?” he asked.

Pinkie laughed, “We can see your shadow!”

Discord blinked, “Well, as you may not know, I am an excellent entertainer!”

The twins giggled. Pinkie smirked, “Show us!”

Discord smiled and sat down, “I’m going to tell you all the story of…” he paused. “Of…um…”

Pinkie jumped up and down, “COTTON CANDY! COTTON CANDY!” her mane bobbed.

Discord chuckled, “Well, the story of cotton candy begins like this: Once upon a time in olden Equestria. There lived a pony named Pink Tuft. She was a world renowned baker and loved to make cookies and sweets and all sorts of treats!”

Pinkie was on the edge of her seat. The twins were smiling.

Discord continued, “One day, somepony made a comment about her cutie mark. ‘What is it supposed to be?’ they asked, ‘I’ve never seen anything like it!’ Pink Tuft thought, ‘Why, I don’t know!’ she exclaimed, staring at her cutie mark. It was a pink object that looked like a cloud. ‘I shall find out!’ she said as she marched home. After researching all she could about clouds, she discovered that none were pink. She was deeply disappointed. When all of a sudden she decided to mix lots of things together, and maybe, just maybe, she’d have what she was looking for! So, for months she experimented. Trying everything until one day, she discovered that…voila! She had found the recipe to make a pink cloud! But what would she call it? It sure did look like cotton. But it tasted so sweet it could be candy! So, she named it ‘Cotton Candy’! The end!”

Pinkie whooped loudly and the twins laughed and smiled. Discord exited from behind the curtain. “How’d I do?” he asked, grinning.

Pinkie leapt up into the air, “You did wonderific! But…you realize when I said ‘Cotton Candy’ I was only kidding right? How’d you know all that?”

Discord flinched, what would he say? He couldn’t tell her he was eons old and was around when all that happened! He smiled nervously, “I…read about it. Yeah, in a book.”

Pinkie smiled, “Oh, Cool!” she turned to the twins who were fidgeting around in their chairs. “They ate their lunch while you were telling the story. PLAYTIME!” she scooped up Pumpkin and Discord picked up Pound and took them into the lobby. “Whaddia wanna do first?” she asked the twins.

Pumpkin giggled, “Cotton candy! Cotton candy!” she shouted.

Pound nodded, “Cotton candy! Yay!”

Pinkie frowned, “But, I don’t have any…” but the twins kept begging for cotton candy. Pretty soon, Pumpkin started crying. And whenever one of them starts crying, the other one does too. Pinkie made silly faces and tried to cheer them up, “I don’t have any! But look!” she did everything she could think of but the twins didn’t cease bawling

Discord smiled, “I could get us some cotton candy!”

“Oh, really, Discount? Thank you so much!” Pinkie said. Discord fired up his horn, it couldn’t be too hard to use. He thought of cotton candy clouds and chocolate milk rain. There was an explosion.

Discord awoke to find the room covered in pink. He discovered the pink was sticky. The spell worked! But he was buried up to his neck in cotton candy. With his hooves, he made a small clearing. “Pinkie? Pound? Pumpkin?” he looked around.

“Right here!” Pinkie trotted over to the clearing and the twins leapt off her back.

“Whee! Cotton candy, yay!” Pound flapped his wings and dove head-long into the cotton candy pool. Pumpkin followed him.

“Wow! I didn’t know Alicorns could do that!” Pinkie commented. Discord smiled proudly.

“We Alicorns can do anything!” he said, prancing in circles around her. “Even make a cotton candy pool appear out of nowhere!”

Pinkie chortled with laughter, “Impressive! You’re so awesome, Discount!”

Discord smiled, “Thank you, Pinkie. Wanna see something else impressive?”

“Sure!”

Discord fired up his horn again, the cotton candy began to levitate towards the ceiling. Pound and Pumpkin tried to catch them. Pumpkin couldn’t but Pound flew after them. “Ready?” Discord asked Pinkie.

“Sure! Ready for what?” Pinkie asked.

Discord smirked and his horn glowed again, “You’ll see.”

It began raining chocolate milk. Pinkie jumped for joy, “Awesome!” Discord chuckled and stuck out his tongue to catch the drops when-. “I used to know somepony who could do that.” Pinkie said.

Discord gulped, “O-oh?”

Pinkie sighed, “Nopony else liked him. I was…the only one who appreciated him.” She continued, “I wish he were here.”

Discord shifted nervously on his hooves, “Was his name by any chance…Discord?” he immediately regretted saying that.

Pinkie looked shocked, “How did you know?”

Discord shook a little. Oh, why did he ever say that? “Uh…”

Pinkie was suddenly standing in front of him, a serious expression on her face. “…Discord?” she said calmly.

Discord looked up at her and sighed. “It’s been a long time, Pinks.” Suddenly, Pinkie did something Discord didn’t expect her to do. He expected her to run to go get her friends to seal him back in the stone again, but…

Pinkie Pie hugged him. “I missed you so much!”

Reunion

That hug lasted for a long time. Discord had no idea what to say. “You…missed me?” he asked.

“I sure did!” Pinkie beeped his nose again.

Discord suddenly felt all warm and fuzzy inside. Nopony had ever missed him before! He smiled and returned Pinkie’s hug, “I…missed you too, Pinkie Pie.” He smiled at the bouncy pink earth pony.

“How did you escape?” Pinkie inquired.

Discord frowned, “Pinkie, if I tell you, you’ve got to promise not to tell anyone about me. Promise?”

Pinkie crossed her heart and flapped her legs and put her hoof over her eye, “I Pinkie Promise! But, on one condition!” she said.

Discord rolled his eyes, “Yes?”

“You have to promise to be good!” Pinkie gave him a look that said: “Or else…”

Discord gasped, “Me? Good? Did you forget who you’re talking to?” Pinkie glared at him harder. “Alright, fine…I…” he sighed, “Pinkie Promise.” He made the gestures.

“Great! Now tell me!” Pinkie said.

Discord began, “Two of the guards were fighting and the stone broke! I thought I saw you but I don’t think I really did. Anyway, after my hallucination I decided to come see you and…I disguised myself as a pony.”

Pinkie grinned, “You’re smart, Dissy!”

Smart? Discord’s eyes widened, “R-really?” he blushed.

“Yupper dupper! Um…Dissy?”

“Yes?”

“I’d…like to see you.” Pinkie said shyly. Discord lifted an eyebrow.

“You already can! I mean…oh!” he smiled and his horn glowed a shade of pale yellow. He turned white.

Pinkie grinned, “It worked!”

Discord held his hoof in front of his face- it was his lion paw! “Haha, so I can change back whenever I want!”

Pinkie bobbed her head. “Yeah! That’s so cool!”

Discord looked behind her. “The twins…?”

Pinkie whirled around, “Oh, gosh, I almost forgot!” she ran over to Pumpkin, who was drinking down the milk that poured from the cotton candy clouds. “Time for your nap, Pumpkin!” she said, picking up Pumpkin. The filly squirmed.

“No, no!” Pumpkin squealed “No nap!” Pinkie sighed.

“It’s naptime, come on, you have to go beddy-bye! Dissy, can you get Pound?” Pinkie turned to him.

Discord nodded, “Sure, Pinkie.” He flew over to Pound, who had a surprised look on his face.

Pinkie smiled, “Pound, this is Discord. He’s the same pony as Discount!” she wasn’t sure if she could get Pound to believe her but Pound had contented himself by chewing on Discord’s antler.

Discord chuckled, “What’re you doing up there?” Pound giggled.

“Horn!” Pound hung on it, laughing.

Pinkie laughed, “Get down from there, mister!” Discord grabbed Pound.

“Hey! My antler!” Discord laughed. Pound frowned and reached up his hoof to cling on it again. “No, you don’t! It’s naptime for you!”

Pinkie started to walk slowly upstairs. Discord flew after her. “So, we can just sing them a lullaby and they’ll go right to sleep.” She explained, smiling as she opened the door to the twins’ bedroom.

“And dream about chocolate fountains!” Discord added. Pinkie snorted with laughter.

“I do that all the time!” the pink earth pony opened the door to the twins’ bedroom and put Pumpkin in her crib. Discord set down Pound, too. “Sweet dreams, little ones!” Pinkie gave them each a kiss on the forehead. “Love you.” She tapped Discord. He turned to her. “You give them kisses too! They love extras!” Pinkie exclaimed. Discord’s eyes widened.

“Me? No way! I am not as mushy as that, no way in eons would I ever-” Pinkie Pie gave him the puppy dog eyes. Discord sighed, “Whatever…” he bent down and gave them each a kiss. “G’night, Pound. Nighty night, Pumpkin.”

Pinkie started to sing softly, “Hush now, quiet now, it’s time to lay your sleepy heads. Hush now, quiet now, it’s time to go to bed. Drift, drift, off to sleep. Exciting day behind you. Drift, drift off to sleep so that dreamland may find you.” She paused, briefly, smiling at Discord. “Hush now, quiet now it’s time to lay your sleepy heads. Hush now, quiet now, it’s time to go to bed.” Pinkie pulled up their covers, “Sweet dreams.” Then she slowly backed out of the room. Discord smiled and looked at the little twins, they were fast asleep.

“Good night. See you soon.” Discord followed Pinkie out of the room and down the stairs.

The chocolate rain had stopped but the cotton candy clouds still hung in the air. Discord smiled, “Want to see something neat?” Pinkie nodded.

“You gonna make it rain again? I had so much fun with that!” Pinkie exclaimed. Discord shook his head.

“Nope! Watch this.” He clapped his claw and paw and suddenly they were up in the sky. Pinkie was walking on air (literally!) “Cool, huh?” he leaped onto a giant cotton candy cloud. Pinkie laughed.

“Way more than cool! This is awesome!” she leapt in, too and began munching on the cloud. It bounced right back. “What happened?” Pinkie asked.

“It’s a replenishing CCC. After you eat it, it comes right back!” Discord made his old shades appear out of nowhere and put them on. “Pretty neat if you ask me!” he took a bite of it, too.

Pinkie jumped up and down, “Yeah! But, what if I fall off?” a scared look came over her face. Discord laughed.

“Allow me to show you!” he stood up and walked off the cloud. “I’m not even using my wings! Try it!” Pinkie put a hoof onto thin air. There must have been an invisible floor there! There was absolutely no wind and Pinkie suddenly wasn’t scared anymore! But, she had a question.

“Where are we?” she asked the draconiques.

“Well, Pinkie Pie, I’ve just created a reality! This is a reality that I’ll share with you. Anything that you wish for, I can make happen! I’m like an infinite wish fulfilling genie!” Discord explained.

Pinkie gasped, “That’s awesome! I wish for a chocolate fountain!” she leapt high in the air. Discord cracked his knuckles.

“One chocolate fountain coming right up!” he snapped his fingers and one appeared in the middle of the cotton candy cloud. Pinkie gasped.

“THANK YOU! IT’S JUST WHAT I ALWAYS WANTED!” she ran and jumped into it, sucking down the chocolate. “Mmm-hmm!” she licked her lips, “So yummy and chocolaty! I love it!”

Discord laughed, “Just ask whenever you want something as awesome as that.” He lied down on the cloud. “I’ll be here!” Pinkie grinned.

“I can’t thank you enough, Discord! This really means so much to me!” Discord smiled.

“No problem, Pinkie.” What Pinkie said next surprised him. He never knew anypony to say something like this to him.

“You’re a great friend!” Pinkie gave him a sweet look. He flinched.

“Me? Friend?” he took off his glasses. Pinkie giggled and swam to the edge of the pool.

“Of course! Everypony is my friend! And I don’t think your bad! I just think you need to experience friendship. Twilight did, and look what happened to her! She changed from a selfish meanie pants that was always grumpy and hated socializing to a kind hearted pony that has wonderful friends! I bet I could do the same for you if you open up your heart!” to Pinkie’s surprise, Discord sniffed. “Oh, what’s wrong? Was it something I said?”

“No, Pinkie.” He answered. “I believe you. You know what? I really am going to be a good boy! I’m gonna make you proud, Pinkie!” he grinned. “I’m sorry about before. I just wanted to have fun…now I see how-.”

“Un-fun it is?” Pinkie completed his sentence, “Yeah, I know how ya feel. Sometimes I hurt my sisters’ feelings when I was younger. But, after I became smiley I felt guilty about it. I forgive you, Dissy.”

Antics in the Attic

After an hour of being in Discord’s “reality” Pinkie and Discord returned to wake up the twins. Pinkie sighed, “I can’t believe how fun that was!” she grinned. “I enjoyed it so much!”

Discord nodded, “I did too! We should do that again. Did you wanna wake up the twins now?” Pinkie smiled.

“Sure! Let’s go!” she marched upstairs, followed by Discord who had a spring in his step. Pinkie opened the twins’ bedroom door, “Rise and shine, little ones!” she scampered into the room and over to their crib. “Wake up, sleepy heads!” she giggled.

Discord smiled and walked over, too, “Naptime’s over!” he said, smiling down at the twins. Pound opened his eyes and looked up. He let out a giggle, on which Pumpkin awoke, too. She smiled up at Pinkie and Discord.

Pinkie plugged her nose as a nasty smell filled the air, “Now it’s diaper change time!” Discord winced. Pinkie noticed and giggled, “Don’t worry. I’ll do it.” She picked up Pound and brought him to the changing table, changed his dirty diaper, and put a new one on. She did the same with Pumpkin. “Alright! Now, it’s playtime again!” she ran into the twins’ closet and returned with a floppy-looking toy chicken and a stuffed monkey. She set them down in the twins’ crib. Pumpkin grabbed onto the chicken and started chewing on it and Pound hugged his monkey. Pinkie and Discord watched in silence, giggling occasionally when one of the twins smiled up at them.

“You know,” Discord started, “This is actually fun. I like foalsitting for them!” he smiled at Pinkie. Who laughed.

“Why do you think I offered to foalsit? It’s so awesome, of course!” she looked at the two babies playing. “I’ve always loved doing this. It really is fun.” Discord beamed and nodded. Pumpkin looked up at him.

“Dissy!” she said, laughing. “Funny!” Pinkie looked at Discord with a sparkle in her eyes.

“I agree.” She said. Discord raised an eyebrow.

“Me? Funny? You’ve only scratched the surface, you two! I can be much funnier than this!” Pinkie gave him a look.

“Prove it.”

Discord smirked, “Challenge accepted.” He hoof bumped her.

Pinkie searched through the upstairs, downstairs, and even the basement of Sugarcube Corner. She was playing hide-and-seek with Pound, Pumpkin and Discord. She wasn’t sure where to look next until she heard a giggle. “Pumpkin” she said to herself as she followed the noise upstairs and into the bathroom. “GOTCHA!” she shouted. Pumpkin tumbled over laughing.

“I hide!” she squealed. Pinkie laughed and scooped her up.

“You betcha! Now, let’s find Dissy and Pound!” Pinkie searched the rest of the bathroom. When she decided the two were not upstairs, she decided to look downstairs again. “Come on, Pumpkin!” she said to her little friend. Pumpkin smiled and leapt on Pinkie’s back. Pinkie trotted downstairs. “Ok, Pumpkin, go look for your brother! I’ll look for Dissy.” Pumpkin nodded and crawled under the table. Pinkie heard a squeal then giggles. You find him?” she looked under the table. “Pound Cake! We found you!” she said. Pound smiled and crawled out from under the table.
Pinkie looked around, “Now where is Discord?” she looked up, well, he could fly. Was he somewhere up high? Then Pinkie had a thought, she grabbed Pound and Pumpkin. “The attic!” the uppermost part of Sugarcube Corner. Pinkie was slightly afraid of going up there. But it wouldn’t scare Discord, she knew. She galloped up the stairs and walked down the hall. The pulled on a small rope and a staircase came down from the ceiling. Pinkie bit her lip, “Here we go…” she walked up the stairs, the twins were silent. “Dissy? You up here?” she looked around the old attic. Then she heard a low

*Creak.*

She whirled around. “I got you now, Discord! Um…Discord? Dissy?” she searched the dark and empty attic with her eyes and then she heard a sound. It sounded like a howl. Pinkie felt a shiver creep down her spine. Pound whimpered. “It’s ok, Pound Cake. He’s up here, I know it…” Pinkie whispered. The attic was bigger than it looked from the outside. It was pretty much empty except for a rag or box here and there, but pretty empty. Pinkie walked to the end and she turned her head to see a mirror with her reflection. The mirror was broken. And her reflection looked shattered, Pinkie kept on walking. Pumpkin whimpered and buried her face in Pinkie’s mane. “It’s ok. We’ll be alright, now. Don’t be…scared.” Pinkie laughed a little to cheer Pumpkin up, but it didn’t work. “Discord…I know you’re up here…”

“RAR!” Pinkie jumped a foot in the air.

“WHO’S THERE?” she looked around, the twins screamed and Pinkie spun around. A black figure was standing in front of them. He roared again. Pinkie screamed and backed against the wall, making herself as small as possible.

The creature collapsed on the floor, laughing. “You…you…you FELL for it! LITERALLY!” yes, it was Discord. Pinkie flinched and then sighed with relief. Pound giggled, but Pumpkin had a serious and not amused expression on her face.

Pinkie stood up straight and marched over to laughing Discord. “You scared me, Dissy!” she said, frowning. Discord stopped laughing.

“Oh, come off it! I was just having a little fun with you!” he covered his face with his lion paw and started to laugh again, “And it was PRICELESS!” he cackled again. Pinkie couldn’t help herself; she started to laugh, too. And Pumpkin smiled. Pound beamed and fluttered his wings with joy.

Legends or Truth?

Downstairs, Pinkie was fixing dinner for Pound and Pumpkin while Discord played with them. He chased them around the house and told them stories. And best of all…jokes! He was having a great time.
Pinkie was making blueberry pie and cherry chongas! It was a recipe she’d wanted to make for a long time. Mashed up cherries inside a tortilla and deep fried sounded good to her. She wondered if her guest would like it. “Dinner!” she called from the kitchen as she set the food on the table and gave the twins their baby food. Discord flew in with Pound hanging on his antler and Pumpkin riding on his back. Pinkie smiled nervously. Discord understood and picked up Pound and set him in his high chair. He did the same with Pumpkin. “Um…Dissy? Could you…?” Discord raised an eyebrow and pulled out a chair.

“What?” he said as he sat down. *Creak* he looked down and chuckled. “Too big, huh?” he snapped his fingers and morphed into a pony again. Pinkie smiled.

“Better!” she sat down and inhaled a breath. “LET’S EAT!” she dug into her food, bits of cherries flew everywhere as she wolfed down the cherry chonga at lightning speed. The twins ignored her and chewed on their baby food. But Discord, however, couldn’t take his eyes of her. Pinkie noticed and sat up straight, “What?” she asked.

Discord snapped out of it and looked at his own plate, “Nothing, I guess…” Pinkie shrugged and dove into her dinner again. Discord levitated a fork with his Alicorn magic and ate his cherry chonga. “T-this is good. What is it?” he asked Pinkie.

“It’s a cherry chonga! Or a chimmy-cherry! Or a chimmy-cherry-chonga! Whatever you wanna call it!” Pinkie beamed, “Do you like it?”

Discord licked his lips as he finished up the last bit of it. “I love it! How did you make it?”

“Simple! It’s just mashed up cherries in a tortilla that’s deep fried!” Pinkie explained as she got a piece of the blueberry pie. Discord licked his lips and grabbed one, too.

“Who taught you to make it?” Discord asked.

“Taught myself! I made up the whole thing, you know!” Discord was surprised at this.

“Wow…”

“Can you cook?” Pinkie innocently asked.

Discord was silent.

Pinkie cocked her head. “No?”

Discord blushed, “Well…I guess not…” he took a bite of the pie. Pinkie grinned.

“I could teach you!”

Discord choked.

“Oh, my! Are you ok!?” Pinkie’s eyes widened.

Discord coughed, “Yeah, I’m…fine. Just, teach…me? To cook?”

Pinkie smiled, “Yup! If you wanna learn, that is.”

Discord looked at the crumbs on his empty plate, “I’d like to learn, actually.” Pinkie glowed with happiness.

“Sure! I’ll teach ya!” she walked over to a cupboard and opened it. “Could you go play with Pound and Pumpkin while I find a recipe for us to try our hooves at?”

Discord nodded, “Sure, Pinkie.” He walked over to Pound and Pumpkin and snapped back to a draconiques again, “Playtime!” he smiled. The twins cheered and jumped on Discord’s back. “Choo-choo!” he chuckled and flew into the other room.

A few minutes later, Pinkie found one. “Aha! Triple Deck Chocolate Fudge ice-cream cake!” she trotted out into the lobby where Discord and the twins were playing peek-a-boo. “They need to go to bed now, it’s late.” Pinkie said.

Discord let out an “Aw…” and Pound Cake frowned. Pumpkin yawned and then smiled at Discord. Pinkie smiled softly.

“Come on! Hey, Dissy?”

“Yeah?”

“Help me tuck them in?” she asked. Discord smiled tranquilly.

“Of course!” he picked up Pound and Pinkie carried Pumpkin Cake upstairs to bed. Once at the door, Pinkie opened it and walked in the room, setting the twins down in their cradle. Discord smiled at both of them. “Good night. We had a great day today, didn’t we?” he said.

Pumpkin yawned and Pound nodded lazily. Pinkie bounced up and down. “We sure did! But now it’s time to go to sleep. I’ll read you a story and then off to dreamland you go!” The twins nodded and Pinkie trotted over to a bookshelf. “What book shall we read? Hmm… ah!” Pinkie selected a book.

“What is it?” Discord asked. Pinkie smiled and walked over to the crib.

“The Legend of Discord!” Pinkie covered her mouth to keep from laughing. Discord was thoroughly shocked.

“Are you sure you want to read that? And…they even made a BOOK about me?”

“Yeah, why not? And yes! I borrowed it from Twilight…had a hard time convincing her why I wanted, though. She said I could keep it…she never wanted to lay her eyes on it again.” Pinkie mumbled the last sentence but Discord understood what she said perfectly. He gulped and was about to protest when-.

“Once upon a time in the magical land of Equestria…There lived two sisters. Years before, they had become the rulers of Equestria and made harmony for everypony in the fertile land.” Pinkie continued, “One day, a great evil rose up among the ponies. Twas’ a strange creature with a black heart. He enjoyed having fun one day and making ponies suffer the next…” Pinkie paused and looked up at Discord who was staring at the floor. She continued, “The two Princesses, Celestia and Luna saw how miserable he was making the other ponies and gathered the objects know as the ‘Elements of Harmony’ together. With them they turned the malicious creature into stone. Peace was made once again and Equestria returned to it’s state of harmony. The end.” Pinkie closed the book. The twins were now fast asleep and Pinkie gave them each a kiss and turned out their lamp. She turned and walked out of the room without another word.

Discord glanced at the sleeping babies and whispered “Good night.” Then he flew down the stairs. He found Pinkie sitting in the lobby, sniffling softly.

“You…made everypony suffer?” Pinkie asked him. Discord stiffened.

“It didn’t happen that way! I was just having some fun! I swear, I did NOT hurt anypony! They may have hated me, and I may have gone a little chaotic but I would never purposely HURT anypony!” he lay a paw on her shoulder. She looked up at him with teary eyes.

“You promise?” Discord nodded.

“Yes, Pinkie. I promise.” Pinkie smiled slightly.

“You know… I believe you. You never hurt my friends. You certainly never hurt ME. You just made us break away from each other…and…I think you’ve changed. Changed for the better.” Pinkie stated and then hugged him. “And I think your one heck of a friend, Dissy.”
Discord beamed and hugged Pinkie back. “Thanks, Pinkie.”

“Well…you wanna get baking, now?”

Discord flew into the kitchen, “Yes. Let’s get baking!”

It's Time to Get Bakin'

Pinkie picked up her cook book and showed it to Discord. “We need butter, eggs, chocolate mix, and milk! We have those!” she scurried over to the fridge and popped it open. She found a milk carton, butter and some eggs.

“What about chocolate mix?” Discord asked, confused. Pinkie snorted.

“It’s not in the fridge, silly! It’s in the cupboard. Can you get it?” Pinkie sat the ingredients down on the counter.

“Sure.” Discord nodded and opened the door. He got a brown box. “This it?”

Pinkie nodded, “Yup! Now, just set it down here and get a bowl and a mixer and we’ll be all set!”

Discord opened a drawer. “Found the mixer.” He carried it over to the table and returned to get a bowl. He got one out and showed it to Pinkie.

“Great! Now let’s get bakin’!”

Time went by with Pinkie showing Discord what to do. She yawned quite frequently. “You wanna go to bed now? I’ll finish up and wait for the Cakes to come home.” Discord offered. Pinkie yawned again.

“No, I’m…” she wiped her eyes. “I’m ok. Maybe I just need to sit down. Be right back.” Pinkie walked into the lobby. “You’re sure you’ll be ok?”

Discord smiled, “I’ll be fine! I have the book, don’t I?”

Pinkie sat on the couch in the lobby and let out an “Mm-hmm. If you need help just…you know…”

“Call you? Yeah, I will.” He got back to baking without another peep from Pinkie. He mixed the ingredients up and then he was suddenly all finished! “Hey, Pinkie! I did it!” he admired his creation and smiled. “Pinkie? Did you wanna see it?” he called. “Uh…Pinkie?” he flew out into the lobby and found Pinkie asleep on the couch. He smiled. “Let’s get you to bed.” He quietly picked her up in his arms like a baby and flew up the stairs to her bedroom he set her down in her bed and pulled up the covers.

“Sweet dreams, my little pink cloud.” He smiled and kissed her cheek. He wasn’t sure, but he thought he saw her smile slightly. He crept out of the room and downstairs.

A few minutes later, the tinkling of the bell for the shop was heard. “Coming.” Discord zapped himself back into a pony and ran to greet who’d come in. “Ah, Mr. and Mrs. Cake!” he said, trying to remember how he’d acted as Discount.

“Hello, Discount! How are the twins?” Mr. Cake asked.

Discord nodded, “They’re sleeping. We had a great day!”

“Where’s Pinkie, dear?” Mrs. Cake asked, looking around. “I know she loves hide-and-seek.”

Discord shook his head, “She’s sleeping.”

Mrs. Cake smiled. “Oh.”

Discord grinned at the two of them. “Would you like to see what we made?” the Cakes nodded. Discord walked into the kitchen “Voila!”

Mrs. Cake gasped, “Is that what I think it is?”

“Yup! It’s a triple layer fudge ice-cream cake! Pinkie and I made it together.” He smiled.

“Aw, honey bun. That’s how we first fell in love…remember that baking competition?” Mrs. Cake asked her husband.

“Like it was yesterday!” Mr. Cake sighed, “We were paired together to make a dessert and…” he laughed, “It was the triple decker fudge ice-cream cake!”

Discord smiled, “That must have been-.”

“And now you’re doing it again!” Discord bristled. Mrs. Cake continued, “Aw, the two lovebirds…so cute together!”

Discord’s mouth fell open, “Us? Lovebirds? No way! We’re friends! Good friends, if anything more!” he blushed.

Mr. Cake laughed, “That’s exactly what I said! Until I really got to know Cupcake, here.” He nuzzled her. “You two are a really cute together, you know?”

Discord bit his lip and said nothing. Mrs. Cake smiled, “Well, why don’t you get some sleep?”

Suddenly, Discord realized that he had no place to sleep, “Um…I…”

Mrs. Cake smiled kindly, “Did you want to stay here until you get the new house thing all sorted out?”

Discord nodded slightly. Mr. Cake smiled, “Thank goodness we have a place for you!” he turned around and motioned for Discord to follow. He tagged behind Mr. Cake. “Would you mind if you slept in the attic?”

“Nah. I like it up there.” Discord answered as Mr. Cake opened the door in the ceiling.

“Ok! Come on up and we’ll get a bed set up for you.” He walked over to an old mattress. “This one is old but it’s still good.”

“I’ll take it.” Discord smiled as he felt it. “It’s very plush, you know?”

“Yes! It was mine when I was little. Sugarcube Corner has been around for a long time. My father’s, father’s, father’s, father ran it. Of course, that was a long time ago.”

Discord smiled, “Yeah. It’s a nice place.”

“Thank you!”

“So…how many bits do I owe you?”

“Nothing, nothing at all! As long as you’re willing to help in the kitchen, nothing!”

Discord smiled gratefully, “I’d love to! And thanks!”

“Well, I’ll let you get settled. Have a nice night!” Mr. Cake walked over to the stairs.

“You too, and thanks!” Discord settled in the bed, it’d be nice to live here for awhile. But he couldn’t stop thinking about what the Cakes said about him and Pinkie. Was it really true? Did he like her more than he bargained for?

Dangers and Doughnuts

The sun had began to rise and Pinkie awoke she looked around the room and got out of bed. She brushed her hair and walked into the twins’ bedroom, she brought her headband and tank top. She put them on and tuned on the radio. Her favorite song was playing. This was how she woke up the twins every day, dancing. It was also how she worked out. She first hopped around the room on one hoof and then did the robot. Then she worked out her smile. She needed to do that every day before she brushed her teeth. “Be prepared to brushie, brushie, brushie!” she always said. Her stomping downstairs and the rocketing volume of the music caused Discord to wake up, he looked around and yawned. Then he stood up and walked downstairs into the twins’ room.

Where Pinkie was dancing her heart out. He grinned and tapped her shoulder. Pinkie opened her eyes and had to shout to get him to hear her, “Hey, Dissy! Wanna dance?” Discord moved his head to the beat and pretty soon he was dancing all over the place. Pinkie did her “Pop Till’ You Drop” dancing, which was making herself bounce all around the room then shuffle. She knew Discord loved to shuffle. “Who wants to shuffle!?” she asked him.

“Shuffle? Oh, it’s on!” he snapped back to his draconiques form and started to shuffle.

Pinkie stood on her hind legs and shuffled everywhere. The twins were laughing. Pinkie boogied everywhere and then the song changed. “PONY ROCK ANTHEM!!!” Pinkie shouted at the top of her lungs. Discord kept shuffling and let out a whoop. Pinkie giggled endlessly at this and continued dancing.

When the song ended Pinkie scooped up Pound and Pumpkin and headed downstairs, Discord followed her.

Downstairs, Mr. and Mrs. Cake had opened up their shop and Twilight walked in with Spike. Discord froze and glanced at Pinkie, who was surprised at this, also. “Hide!” she said sharply, pointing to a table. Discord winced and scurried under it. Pinkie backed up the stairs slowly, Pound and Pumpkin still on her back. She watched Twilight and Spike carefully.

“Hi, Mr. and Mrs. Cake!” Twilight said, smiling. “How are you today?”

“We’re fine, Twilight! How are you and Spike?” Mrs. Cake answered.

Spike cut in, “Hungry! Got anything to eat?”

Twilight smiled and turned to Mrs. Cake, “We decided to have breakfast here today. Have any blueberry muffins?” Twilight asked politely.

“We sure do! Two, then?”

“Aw, only two?” Spike looked at Twilight, who gave him an annoyed glance.

“Yes, please.” She said.

Mrs. Cake smiled and gave her two muffins in a box. “Enjoy!”

“We will. Thank you!” Twilight dropped three bits on the counter and put the box on her back, “Come on, Spike!” she nodded at her dragon friend and started for the door. Then Spike caught a whiff of something, he sniffed and then turned towards the café where many tables and chairs were, he followed his nose.

“Hmm…where have I smelled this scent before?” he closed his eyes and walked around and then opened them again. He saw a weird object sticking out from under a table. And it looked suspiciously like a snake tail. Spike’s eyes widened and was just to look under it when-.

“SPIKE! We don’t have all day, c’mon!” he turned to see Twilight halfway inside the door, he sighed and ran up to her. “What were you doing?” she asked.

“I thought I saw something under that table, but…guess not.” He explained. Twilight smiled.

“Oh, don’t worry; it was probably just a crumb. They clean up the shop when the day is over.” She smiled and walked out the door. Spike sighed, he was sure it wasn’t a crumb.

Meanwhile, Discord let out a huge sigh and changed back into a pony, he crawled out from under the table. Pinkie walked down the steps, “Are you ok? Did they see you?”

“No. I…forgot to change back…” Discord facehoofed. “Oops.” Pinkie let out a relieved sigh and smiled.

“You hungry?”

Discord nodded, “Oh, yes.”

Pinkie smiled and walked to the counter of the shop, the twins jumped off her and started to play together on the floor. “Could we have some doughnuts, please?” Pinkie asked Mrs. Cake, who’d just returned from the kitchen.

“Sure, Pinkie! What kinds?”

Pinkie looked at Discord. “Uh…chocolate with sprinkles!” he said.

Mrs. Cake nodded and turned to Pinkie, “And you, dear?”

“Same, please! You know I love chocolate and sprinkles…and doughnuts! So why wouldn’t my favorite doughnut be chocolate sprinkles!?” Pinkie giggled.

“Er…yes. I see.” Mrs. Cake smiled nervously and gave Pinkie and Discord each a doughnut. “Enjoy!”

Discord and Pinkie nodded and said “We will, thanks!” in unison. They both giggled and headed out the door, each carrying their doughnuts. They sat on a bench and began to eat when Pinkie asked Discord a question.

“Wanna go to the park?”

On Cloud Nine

“Alright, sure.” Discord took a bite of his doughnut. Pinkie munched hers down and took his hoof.

“Come on!” she raced across town and reached the park at lightning speed. Discord was exhilarated. Pinkie giggled. “Did I go too fast? Sorry.”

Discord gave her a smirk, “Too fast? I could outrun you any day of the week.” Pinkie nudged his shoulder.

“It’s on, Dissy.” She got in a starting stance. “We’ll race around town and back again. Oh, and no wings!”

“Ok, then.” He got in a starting stance, “Ready…set…”

“GO!!!” Pinkie zoomed off in front of him and he zipped after her as fast as Rainbow Dash would have.

They were soon neck and neck, traveling at an enormous speed. First, Pinkie inched ahead, “Ah, but your advance is to no avail!” Discord easily caught up with her.

Pinkie turned to him, “Oh, you haven’t seen what I can do yet…” she zoomed ahead and then called back to him, “I’M GONNA WIN, DISSY!” Discord picked up the pace, he’d never felt so free! It’d been eons since he’d had a good run, no, this wasn’t a good run, it was a great run. Somehow running with Pinkie Pie made it feel a lot more fun.

“Gotcha, now!” Discord said as he raced in front of Pinkie. Pinkie smirked and moved ahead of him, then she saw the place where they first started. Discord noticed too and inched ahead a little more.

Pinkie let out a little yelp as she tripped over a rock. She tumbled ahead and soon Discord got caught up in her tumbling. They tumbled the rest of the way to the finish line and then collapsed on the grass, laughing. “I won!” Pinkie said between deep breaths.

“No, I…won!” Discord poked her shoulder and grinned mischievously.

“No…way! I…did!” she poked him back.

Discord smiled and looked up at the sky, “Tie... It was a tie.”

Pinkie grinned and looked up, too. “Hey, wanna try and spot little shapes in the clouds? I love that game!”

“Sure.” Discord answered. “I see…an Ursa Major!”

“I spy a cupcake!” Pinkie pointed. Discord squinted.

“How is that a cupcake?”

“Look. There’s the wrapping paper, and there’s the icing on top!” she explained, drawing a sort of invisible frame around the ‘cupcake’. Discord smiled.

“Yeah, I see it now. Hey, look! A gingerbread house!”

Pinkie giggled, “I love gingerbread houses! Oh, look, a licorice twist!” she gazed up at the awkwardly shaped cloud. Discord smiled.

“It sure does…wanna see something neat?” he smirked at her coolly. She nodded. Discord transformed into a draconiques again, “Ready?”

Pinkie had nervous look on her face. “What if somepony sees you?” she scanned the area.

“Aw, they won’t. And now, Pinkie…” he snapped his fingers and they were suddenly up in the sky. Walking on air. Pinkie gasped as she realized suddenly could fly! She had no wings, but she felt overjoyed about being up in the sky. Who needs a balloon when you have Discord? Pinkie grinned at him.

“This is so cool! Thank you so much!” she flew around him in circles. He chuckled.

“I knew you’d love it. But this isn’t all, my pink pal!” he took her hoof. “Watch this.” Suddenly they were flying together at top speed above Equestria. Pinkie oh’d and ah’d and suddenly she felt so excited she couldn’t help herself.

“I LOVE THIS! I LOVE YOU!” Pinkie suddenly felt really awkward. Discord stopped flying and turned to her with a huge blush. Pinkie blushed, too but didn’t say a word.

A small smile spread across Discord’s face and he chuckled softly. Pinkie was surprised.

“Sorry…I just…um…” Pinkie grinned nervously as she felt her blush deepen.

Discord smiled at her, “Don’t be…and I sort of…” he scratched his mane and said in a very small voice. “I love you, too.”

Pinkie felt a joy rise up within her and she hugged Discord tight, squealing. “You do!?”

Discord blushed and smiled at the same time, “...Yes…” Pinkie looked up at him with shining eyes and hugged him tighter.

“Eh…Pinkie” Discord said in an irritated voice “Little less tight, if you don’t mind…”

“Oops, sorry.” She said, letting go of him. He smiled at her.

“Did you wanna continue our fly?” he asked, blushing a tiny bit.

Pinkie nodded, “Sure! Let’s do it!” she grabbed his paw and he began to zoom foreword with her flying next to him. They flew over every single town but were especially careful around Canterlot. Pegasus patrolled the skies around that are but the two were able to slink by without causing any commotion. When they reached the grasslands outside of Ponyville, it was sunset and Pinkie smiled as she touched the ground. For the first time in hours began to experience gravity. She grinned up at Discord.

“Shall we go home?” he asked her. Pinkie nodded and started walking.

“I had a great time, Dissy.” She looked up at him with radiant eyes. He transformed into a pony as they got closer to Ponyville.

“I did, too.” He spread his wings, and gazed at Pinkie. The pink mare smiled and walked closer to him and he lowered his wing on her. Pinkie giggled and licked his cheek. He blushed and looked at her.

“Um…sorry, I was just um…” she was interrupted as Discord kissed her cheek. She widened her eyes at him and grinned. “Dissy…?”

“Yeah?”

“I love you…I really do.” Pinkie stared at the ground and tried to hide her blush.

Discord nuzzled her, “I love you too, Pinkie Pie.”

A/N: Ok...this seriously made me DA'WWW of excessive amounts...but I feel it was necisary. Hope you all liked this one! :D

The Sordid Truth

The next two days passed by quickly for Pinkie and Discord. Their bond grew stronger over those two days together. And on the second day Pinkie skipped over to Twilight’s house. Humming her favorite tune, “La, la, la, la, la..!” she tapped on the Unicorn’s door.

Twilight answered it and gave Pinkie a smile, “Hi, Pinkie! It’s been a few days. What can I do for you?”

“Well, I was gonna make a pie but I don’t have the recipe. Could I borrow a cookbook?”

“Of course!” Twilight stepped aside to let Pinkie enter the bubbly earth pony bounced in and looked at the shelves. “Now, what’s the recipe you’re looking for?”

“Banana Lemmon Split Pie!” Pinkie announced with a grin, “I’m making it for a friend of mine.” Twilight used her magic to sort through the books.

“Oh? Is it that colt you’ve been hanging around with for the past few days?” she asked Pinkie.

“Yep. That’s him!” Pinkie was looking through the books, too.

“What’s his name? You two seem to be good friends.” Twilight scanned the interior of one book and then set it down.

“Discord.”

Twilight froze and the glow of her horn ceased. The books dropped to the floor with a thump. “What?” she turned to Pinkie with an alarmed look in her eyes. Pinkie looked up at her.

“What? What’d I say?”

“Discord…” Twilight glared at Pinkie. Sweat dripped down Pinkie’s face and she started to giggle nervously.

“Oh, did I say that? Ha, ha, ha…I’m funny…I meant Discount! Yeah, that’s it, Discount! Why’d I say Discord? That’s crazy and I mean really craz-” Pinkie looked at Twilight who was now standing next to her. Pinkie gulped and grabbed a random book. “Oh, look! I found the book! I’d best be going now!” Pinkie zipped to the door but not before Twilight teleported in front of her.

“No, Pinkie, you’ve got to stay here. It’s not safe.” Pinkie was about to protest when Twilight locked the door from the outside. Pinkie winced and stumbled back.

“But…T-Twilight I have things…I need to do! And I have to get back to the bakery to…bake!” Pinkie tried to slink past Twilight but the Unicorn blocked her path “Hint, hint! Can I go now?” Twilight gave her a glare.

“No, Pinkie. It’s not safe! I’ll contact the Princess. She’ll be able to get rid of Discord!” Twilight turned and ran upstairs to her bedroom. Pinkie tried to chase after her but tripped over the books that littered the floor.

“Please, Twilight! You can’t do this!” she cried. “I didn’t mean it! I said Discount! Not Discord!” Pinkie tried to get up, but she twisted her leg. Twilight ignored her and began to write.

“My Dearest Teacher,

There is an emergency in Ponyville. I don’t know how it happened but somehow Discord escaped and came here. Pinkie knows how, I believe but Discord must have corrupted her so she can’t tell!” Sweat dripped down Twilight’s face as she read the letter aloud.
“Your faithful student,

Twilight Sparkle.”

Pinkie shook her head and stumbled to her hooves and ran upstairs to Twilight’s room. “Twilight, listen to me! Please!” Pinkie grabbed the letter. Twilight growled and she used her magic to grip the letter.

“Spike! Come…here, quick!” she shouted as Pinkie gripped the scroll with all her strength. Twilight tugged harder. Finally, Spike raced up the stairs, a surprised look came over his face.

“What in Equestria is going on!?” he ran over to Pinkie, who was still fighting Twilight’s magic. Twilight opened her eye and looked at Spike. Spike looked over at her. “Why are you fighting over a letter?”

Pinkie let out a little scream without opening her mouth and her face flushed, “GIMME THAT LETTER!” she said, tugging harder. Twilight let her magic go briefly. Pinkie stumbled back into a bookshelf and all the books fell down on top of her, she realized she had let go of the letter. Fear washed over her, she had to destroy that letter.

“SPIKE! FIND THE LETTER, QUICK!” Twilight shouted at him as she levitated Pinkie with her magic. Spike watched in awe for a few seconds and then dove into the book pile. Pinkie screamed.

“Twilight, Please! DON’T DO IT!!!” she fought against the magic by moving her legs in a doggie-paddle manner and thrashing her tail around. “TWILIGHT, MAKE SPIKE STOP! IT’S NOT DISCORD! LISTEN TO ME!” Pinkie screamed as her eyes filled up with tears. Twilight ignored Pinkie’s pleas her held back harder.

“Spike, hurry! I can’t hold her much longer!” Twilight bit her lip. “Did you find it!?” Spike popped out of the pile with the letter in hand and nodded, a frown coming across his face. Twilight let out a relieved groan and accidentally let her magic slip. Pinkie fell against the ground and started to charge towards Spike when Twilight leapt on top of her. “Send it, NOW!” she shrieked. Spike bit his lip and looked at the letter.

“No, Spike! Please don’t do it! PLEASE!!!” Pinkie begged, her eyes pleading with him. He looked away and shook his head. Pinkie closed her eyes and hoped with all her heart that he wouldn’t send it.

Her hopes were shattered like glass falling on pavement when Spike breathed on the letter with his dragon breath, it disappeared into thin air. Pinkie started to cry and Twilight got off her friend. “Pinkie, what is wrong with you!?” Twilight stared at her bawling friend. Pinkie sniffed and curled up into a ball.

Twilight put her hoof on Pinkie’s shoulder and heard the door open downstairs. “Can you get that, Spike?” she turned to her dragon friend who nodded and ran downstairs. A few seconds later Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy were standing in front of Twilight. The Unicorn smiled, “Oh, thank goodness you’re here!”

Rainbow looked down at Pinkie, “What happened?”

Fluttershy took a small step back, “We were waiting for you to come to the picnic a-and you didn’t show…” Applejack rushed up the stairs.

“So we decided to come see you when-.”

Rarity raced up next to her, “We heard screaming! Whatever happened, darling?” Twilight frowned and looked down at Pinkie Pie, whose hair was flat. “Pinkie? Are you alright?” Rarity looked startled. Pinkie opened her eyes and glared at Twilight. Twilight felt a shiver run down her spine when she saw that Pinkie’s once sky blue eyes were now an icy grayish-blue. Pinkie clenched her teeth and said nothing.

Fluttershy whimpered. Spike, Rarity, and Rainbow, who were thoroughly confused stared silently at Pinkie. Applejack walked up to her and sat down next to her. “What’s wrong, sugar? Tell us all what happened, Ah’m sure we can help…” she said in a soft, soothing voice. Pinkie bristled and looked up at her.

Twilight began, “Discord is in Ponyville.” Fluttershy flushed red and her face became angry. Applejack’s eyes widened and Rainbow growled. Rarity gasped. Twilight continued, “I don’t know how it happened but somehow he and Pinkie have become…friends!” everypony gasped and Pinkie snarled at Twilight. The Unicorn frowned.

“Yes!” Pinkie stood up with tears in her eyes, “Yes, he’s my friend! We’ve done so much together and you’ve all got to believe he’s changed!” Pinkie stared at the ground.

Rainbow wrinkled her nose, “I am NOT gonna believe that! That dude has a serious problem!”

Fluttershy grimaced, “HE’S A BIG, DUMB MEANIE IS WHAT HE IS!”

Rarity stepped back, “With a horrid taste in entertainment!” Applejack frowned.

“And a hankerin’ for trouble with a capital ‘T’!”

“How in the world could you befriend a menace like that!?” Rarity shook her head, “I don’t understand it!” Pinkie closed her eyes tight.

“I don’t understand it!” she wailed, “Remember when Zecora came into town!? We all thought she was mean and that she put a curse on us! But Apple Bloom befriended her! We learned to accept her and we all became her friends!”

Rainbow snarled, “Zecora’s different! She was never evil in the first place!” Pinkie glared at Rainbow.

“We all THOUGHT she was! But Apple Bloom proved to us that she wasn’t mean or scary. And the same thing happened with Twilight and Princess Luna, too!”

Spike looked at the floor, “She has a point…” Twilight sent him an angry look. He took a step back. Suddenly a light from downstairs filled the whole library and everypony shut their eyes. The door to Twilight’s balcony flung open and Pinkie saw an opportunity, she slipped out the door and silently grabbed the tree trunk and slid down it. She had to warn Discord about her friends!

The Truth Hurts

Pinkie galloped to Sugarcube Corner, her heart was pounding and she burst in the door. Mrs. Cake looked up, “Hello, Pinkie…” she paused, “A-are you alright, dear?” Pinkie shot her a glance but didn’t answer she raced up the stairs. She jumped up and grabbed the rope, the stairs came down from the ceiling and she raced up them. Alicorn Discord was napping.

Pinkie rushed over to him and started to cry. He opened his eyes and looked up at her, “Pinkie?” he asked, sitting up. “Are you ok?” Pinkie’s lip trembled and she pulled Discord into a tight hug.

“I-I-I’m so sorry! I did-didn’t mean to, I’m sorry!” she cried. Discord raised an eyebrow.

“What? You’re sorry for what?” he looked her in the eye. She pulled away from him, shaking all over.

“It just came out of my mouth and I…I’m SORRY!!!” she wailed. “I…” she couldn’t finish.

“Pinkie, I can’t help you if you don’t tell me what’s wrong!” he smiled kindly, “Could you please tell me?”

Pinkie looked him in the eye, she knew he wouldn’t be happy, but she had to tell him the truth. “I…I accidentally told my friends about you…” she mumbled, staring at him to see what his reaction would be. His smile melted into a frown, he lowered his eyebrows and bit his lip.

“You did…what?” he said, clenching his teeth.

Pinkie whimpered, “It was an accident! I’m so-.”

Discord stood up and gave her a coldhearted glare. “Sorry? Pinkie, we had a deal!”

“I know, and it just slipped out! What, did you expect me to keep it a secret forever!?” she barked. He wrinkled his nose.

“YES! I DID!” Pinkie’s expression changed from infuriated to sad. He’d never yelled at her before, she took a step back. “And to boot, it wasn’t just ONE pony, it was your FRIENDS!? ALL OF THEM!?” Discord shouted, “I can’t believe you!” he trotted past her and changed back into his draconiques form. He opened the window and spread his wings, “Pinkie, I thought you were my friend…” he flew out the window.

Pinkie blushed and she raced after him, “I am! Please, give me another-.” The window slammed in her face. “Chance…” she watched him fly off.

--Twilight’s Library—

The light grew brighter until it ceased, Twilight looked around and rushed to the stairs, followed by her four friends. She gasped and raced down the steps, “Princess!” she bowed before Celestia.

“Twilight, I-.” before Celestia could finish a navy blue light appeared next to her and glowed, when it ceased, Luna was standing there, she looked up at her sister.

“Sister, I promise, I can help!” Luna pleaded, Twilight felt like she missed something. Luna turned to her, “Hello, Twilight Sparkle.” She said without smiling.

Twilight nodded and Celestia gave Luna a look, “Oh, alright. But we must be careful…Discord’s a wily one.” She sighed. Twilight nodded and Rainbow flew down and landed in front of her.

“Did ya bring the Elements?” Dash asked. The older Princess nodded and her horn glowed a soft golden light, the Elements appeared in front of her.

Twilight ran up to her golden tiara and put it on. Rarity put on her necklace along with Applejack and Rainbow Dash. Spike laughed, “Can I be the new Pinkie Pie!?” he received a glare from everypony. “What?”

Celestia cleared her throat and nodded to Twilight, “We can find Discord, but it might take a while. Where is Pinkie Pie?” she looked around.

Twilight’s eyes widened, “Oh, gosh! Where’d she go!?” Twilight looked around. Rarity raced up the stairs and gasped.

“She’s gone!”

Pinkie was looking out the window, crying softly. Why had she told? It started to rain. Pinkie still had her flying powers and she smiled a bit, maybe she could find Discord if she looked hard enough. She decided to search for him, it’d take a miracle but she knew if she looked hard enough she’d find him. She opened the window and stepped out on the sill and took a deep breath. “For the sake of our friendship.” She whispered softly. Sighing, she took one small step into thin air and her hoof floated. She smiled and jumped off the sill and began to fly upwards. If she knew Discord, he’d probably turned one of the clouds pink and called it ‘Cotton Candy’ by now. Pinkie looked around and came to rest on a puffy white cloud. There were hundreds upon thousands of clouds in Equestria, but Pinkie knew the best clouds were in Ponyville. Pinkie’s spirits sunk. She had pretty much lost all hope of finding her friend. She groaned and plopped down on a random cloud. She sighed and looked around.
Something landed on her nose, she crossed her eyes and touched it with her hoof. The strange substance stuck to it. Pinkie put it on her tongue. She’d know that taste anywhere, she grinned and looked up. A pink shadow was hanging over her and her hair immediately returned to its normal, puffy shape. With one leap into the air she flew straight through the cloud and looked back down at it. Discord looked up at her with a surprised look. Pinkie gasped and plummeted back on the cloud, landing on top of Discord. “I found you, Dissy!” she giggled, “I win!”
Discord grimaced and said nothing. Pinkie bit her lip and beeped his nose. “Aha, and you…didn’t even have to scare me this time!” Discord gave her his best poker face. Pinkie perked up, “Ooh, staring contest!” she stared into his eyes. He frowned and blinked. “Haha, I win!” Pinkie teased. Discord sighed and pushed Pinkie off him. He flew over to the other side of the cloud. Pinkie frowned and followed him. “Hey, Dissy?” she asked him. He didn’t look at her. “I’m really sorry that I told on you…I just blurted it out! I didn’t mean to, I am so, so, so, so sorry. Can you ever forgive me?” she gave him a sad smile.

“Why should I?” he said sharply, “We had a deal, Pinks, and you broke it.” He lowered his eyebrows. “All I wanted was to be free for once. A good long break from eons of standing in one place without end. I thought you could give me some entertainment. I thought you could be my friend, but I was wrong. You can’t even keep a secret.”

“Now, wait just a minute!” Pinkie wrinkled her nose and stomped her hoof on the cloud, making it stick. She sighed, “Twilight asked me who you were. And I, NOT on purpose, NOT intentionally, said Discord! She immediately became all frantic and I tried to convince her that I said otherwise but she didn’t believe me! You’ve GOT to understand me, please!” she pleaded. “I just wish that I had never gone to her house in the first place!” Pinkie looked at the cloud, “I’m sorry, ok?”

Discord sighed and looked at the cloud, too. “But they’ll find out about me eventually, you know. And then it’s all over, I’ll probably never be free again!”

Pinkie smiled up at him. “I won’t let them do that to you. I Pinkie Promise.” She crossed her heart and waved her legs and put a hoof over one of her eye and giggled. Discord chuckled and hugged her, she sighed and for the first time in her life she felt so safe, so happy, and so loved.

Never Let You Go (Ending)

Pinkie opened her eyes from the long hug to the sound of shouting, she widened her eyes and looked up and Discord, he pricked his ears up and glanced at her. She let go and trotted to the edge of the cloud and looked down. Pinkie held back a gasp, her friends were staring straight up at the cloud. Celestia and Luna included. Discord looked down, too but quickly backed up. Celestia lowered her eyebrows. Rainbow tried to fly up, an angry look coming over her face but Applejack held her back by her tail. Pinkie blushed and backed up. She bit her lip and looked over at Discord, who was looking at her. She winced and suddenly a golden light appeared in the middle of the cloud. Pinkie ran over to Discord and hugged him, “Run!” she whispered. Discord gave her a worried look and she nodded sincerely. He spread his wings and took off. She followed him not far behind.

Celestia, Luna, Twilight, Rainbow, Applejack, Rarity, and Fluttershy appeared on the cloud, thanks to the Princess’s teleportation spell. Celestia’s eyes widened when she saw Discord and Pinkie flying off. Twilight winced and looked up at her teacher. The princess lowered her brows. “Sister,” Luna started, “What…?” she didn’t finish.

Celestia turned to Twilight, who had an angry look. Pinkie landed on the ground and kept running. Twilight stomped her hoof, “We have to stop them!” Princess Celestia nodded and her horn glowed a shade of golden yellow.
Pinkie continued running, and Discord kept flying in front of her. Pinkie looked back and saw that the cloud was empty, her eyes widened and she halted. A golden light appeared in front of her. She took a step back and Discord glanced at her and stopped flying foreword. She bit her lip and stumbled back. The light flashed brightly then ceased, leaving Pinkie’s friends and the two Princesses. Pinkie looked up at Discord briefly, he gulped. Pinkie frowned at all of her friends and ran past them. Everypony gasped, how rude it was to run straight past royalty without yielding. Celestia turned around. Rainbow blushed hard and flew after Pinkie. Applejack grabbed her tail again and held her back. “Whoa there, missy! Slow down, let Twilight and the Princesses handle this.” Rainbow groaned, returned to the ground and swished her tail.

“Pinkie?” Celestia called. Pinkie stopped and turned to look at her with a frown.

“Y-yes…?”

Celestia spread her wings and teleported in front of Pinkie with the others. Twilight stepped up to Pinkie, “Pinkie? Are you ok?”

“YES! I mean…why wouldn’t I be?” Pinkie mumbled in an agitated voice

Twilight stepped forward, “Pinkie, you need to listen to us. You are a part of The Elements of Harmony and we need you now.”

Pinkie shook her head.

Twilight lowered her eyebrows, “Listen, Pinkie! Discord is NOT your friend! He’s your enemy!” the other six nodded.

Pinkie squealed madly and she turned red, “No, no, no, no, NO!” everypony was stunned at this outburst. “He’s changed, guys! Don’t you understand me!?”

“Pinkie, no! It’s a trap! I am positive!” Rarity spoke up.

Pinkie shook her head, “You’re wrong! I love him!” Twilight fainted. Rarity gasped and had to sit down. Fluttershy bit her lip and widened her eyes. Rainbow stammered random words and looked at Pinkie, she shook her head. Luna and Applejack looked up at Princess Celestia. Pinkie wrinkled her nose.

“Pinkie?” Celestia walked over to Pinkie, who looked up at her with sorrowful eyes. “Discord will never change, dear. He was born a villain and he must be stopped…” she fired up her horn and Pinkie’s elemental necklace appeared in front of her. Pinkie held out her hoof and Celestia calmly set it down on it. Pinkie considered what she should do, her eyes brimming with tears. She whirled around and threw her necklace down on the ground. But it levitated again and brought itself back to her. She widened her eyes as it tied itself around her neck.

“Pinkie.” The pink mare turned around and so did the others. Discord smiled and flew over to her. “It’s ok.”

Pinkie looked up at him, “W-what do you mean?”

“Go, be with your friends. I won’t be mad, I promise.” He smiled at her. Pinkie whimpered.

“But…but, if I go with them then you’ll be…”

“I know, and it’s alright.”

Pinkie shook her head and sniffled, “No! I promised, remember? You can’t-”

“Pinkie, perhaps it’s for the best. Listen, you made that promise for me.” He shook his head, “I’ve been used to years of solitude, going back there won’t be hard for me.”

“But, I thought you hated it!”

“I do, but what’s the point of gaining one friend while losing numerous others?” Discord looked at Pinkie’s friends, “They’re your friends, Pinkie. I was here for a while, we’ve had much fun and good times…and now I have to go.” He turned back to her.

Pinkie stared at him with tearful eyes and glanced at her friends, Fluttershy had tears in her eyes and Rainbow turned away with a sad expression. Celestia wore a grim expression while Applejack and Rarity just stood there with blank expressions as if they’d just gotten there and didn’t understand what was going on. Luna glanced over at Celestia, who didn’t say a word.

Pinkie shut her eyes, “But…but…”

Discord hugged her, “Just promise you won’t forget me, now.”

Pinkie gladly returned the hug with all the hugging energy she had in her, “I swear!”

“Love you, Pinks.”

“Love you too, Dissy…” Pinkie sobbed. “And you won’t forget me, either?”

“I promise I won’t.” he backed out of the hug. Luna whimpered, Applejack took off her hat respectfully and placed it over her heart. Rarity conjured up a tissue and wiped her eyes while Twilight stumbled to her hooves with an emotionless expression that clouded her face. Rainbow shut her eyes and Fluttershy’s lip trembled. Celestia, with Twilight had an impassive expression. Discord smiled and snapped his fingers, making a small cotton candy cloud appear. “You may keep Fluffy.”

Pinkie smiled and gazed at the cloud, “Thanks, Dissy…” her eyes glistened with tears. Discord gave her a peck on the cheek.

“Maybe we’ll meet up again someday.”

Pinkie nodded and hugged him, “I sure hope so!”

Discord held the hug for a few moments before returning Pinkie to the ground, “Now go.” He smiled, “I’ll be seeing you soon, then.”

Pinkie sniffled and walked over to her friends, who had the same expressions as they did before. “Are you ready, dear?” Princess Celestia asked Pinkie Pie, who smiled a sad smile.

“Yes, Princess.” She turned back to Discord and mouthed a “goodbye”. He smiled and did, too. Twilight stepped forward and stood in the center of a circle that seemed to be formed by the other four Elements. Pinkie bravely took her spot in the formation.

“Are you ready, Pinkie?” Twilight turned to Pinkie, who stood on her right. Pinkie nodded slowly and looked back at Discord, who flew over in front of the assembled six ponies. Pinkie nodded at him and he winked back at her.

Rainbow sniffed once, “L-let’s do it, then…”
Twilight nodded and her horn glowed a shade of bright pink. The six began to levitate off the ground. The two Princesses watched as Twilight opened her white tinted eyes, making a rainbow shoot above her. Discord looked up at it and braced himself. Pinkie opened an eye and smiled over at him. The rainbow quickly wrapped around Discord and he winked at Pinkie through one of the holes there was in it. She closed her tear-brimmed eyes and waited patiently for the Elements to do their job. For what seemed like an eternity of remembering all the good times her and Discord spent together, her hooves finally returned to the ground. She opened her eyes and glanced at Discord, who was now frozen inside a statue, probably forever, now.

The six ponies turned to Pinkie, with sad expressions on their faces. Pinkie smiled at them and then walked over to the statue, whispering softly. “Goodnight, Dissy. Sweet dreams.” She was probably imagining it but she could’ve sworn he winked at her. She giggled, “Love you.”
And with that, she returned to her normal everyday life. But she never forgot Discord, and she kept Fluffy in her room at Sugarcube Corner forever. And one day, she understood what Discord meant by “Maybe we’ll meet up again someday.” For she always saw him in her dreams.

A/N: Ok, this is what you get while listening sad music while writing...I seriously let the tears spill. Sorry if you all don't like sad endings...I felt like a good cry was needed...perhaps one day I shall make a sequel. Until then, everypony!

Breaking Chaos

Prolouge:

Discord’s POV:

Day after day, month after month it was always the same. Standing in that humiliating pose twenty-four-seven. Having school groups pass you by and carry on endlessly about how silly you look. You didn’t even get a backscratcher! And dear Celestia, it was hot in there.

As you can tell, I was bored. Heck, I always was. On the other hoof, who wouldn’t be? It was a horrible feat to be met with, was it not? The only passage out was if someponies argue right next to me, and that was my ticket to easy-on-out street.

Only problem?

There were guards everywhere.

They stare at me as if one single twitch will send Luna to the moon. But, seriously…that’s not the way I do things. All I wanted was to have some fun with the main six. But maybe there is some way out of this rut…
