Don't kill it with fire!

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Celestia was eating her usual forth piece of cake that morning. He niece said she needed to go on a diet.

This was her diet for atleast four months.

She picked up the milk carton and let go when it reached the other side of the table, letting it spill on the floor.

"Hm? What was that?" She looked over to where her sister usually sat and found she wasn't there,

"Guards! Get a mop and please clean the milk somepony spilled on the floor up."

As they went to work she went to her sister's study.

She wasn't there.

She went to the kitchen.

She wasn't there, along with a cake that had gone missing.

She went to the garden only to get attacked by cookie trying to get cake crumbs off her lips.

She wasn't there either.

"Where could she be?" She thought rubbing her sore lips from her feathered assailant.

She went to Luna's room. It was locked.

"Why would she lock her door?" She asked herself before hearing a light snoring.

She giggled and put her ear against the door.

She heard nothing.

She put her ear to her own door before falling in.

She wasn't in there either.

"Discord if you hurt even one hair on her..." She said while putting her ear to the heavily boarded and chained door.

She heard two ponies snoring.

She reared her back legs up and bucked them in sending splinter's and metal flying. When she did walk in she saw what could be described as the most "Dawww" rific scene in existence.

She saw her old enemy with her sister in the bed with his paw on her shoulder and her head on his chest with her snoring lightly alongside his head on top of her neck.

Furious didn't describe what she was feeling.

"Discord! you have went to far this time!" She yelled even louder than when he had recorded her "I trust you" incident.

Three things happened. They both screamed, Luna was talking to fast to hear and Celestia was covered in bowling balls.

"What the buck! I told you not to do that! I told you not to sneak up on me and look what you've done you kicked in the door!" Discord yelled getting out of the bed.

All the bowling balls melted instantly followed by a blast of fire. Discord in enough time teleported him and Luna to Ponyville with only just a few singed hairs.

"Luna, would you care to explain why she just blew up part of the castle?" He asked pointing to the pillar of smoke coming from the city and her hair.

Her cheeks turned purple. "I think she saw us cuddling and thought-"

"She thought we bucked! Ha! Of wait... she wants to kill me!" He yelled running around in a circle with his arms in the air.

"Discord she will not kill you, she's against killing. She’s one of those pacifist ponies." Luna waved at him making him calm down slightly.

"If she does try anything then will you protect me?"

"Why me? Your stronger than both of us."

"I don't hurt ponies remember? Oh, wait you weren’t there when I said that."

"But we were!"

It was the mane six.

"Twilight! Your teacher thought me and her sister bucked and now she's trying to turn me into charcoal!"

"What!? Did you actually-"

"No! I know you’re a shut in but help, please! I let you have those notes on my kind, help me please!" He was on his knee's begging her.

"What can we do?"

"Stay right where you are while I roast him alive!"

There was a shadow that quickly formed to make Celestia. Her mane now nothing but red flames and her coat black and red from where rubble had fallen on her.

"Help! Get the Element's quick trap her or me in stone! Skittle's please! Fluttershy stare at her!"

She dragged him over to where she was getting ready to hit him in the face.

Until she was thrown into a building by a blast of purple magic.

"Whew, thanks Luna."

"That wasn't me."

"...what? If not you then that mean's... no bucking way."

They all turned around to see Twilight with her horn charged.

"Did you just attack my sister?" Luna asked.

Twilight broke out of her trance and her eyes widened before she started to cry hiding behind her friends.

"Discord you coward! Fight me yourself!" Celestia yelled.

"I don't want to die! I'm too young!"

"Sister stop this! He didn't do anything; I was the one who kissed him!" Luna yelled.

Celestia's mane went back to normal while her mouth and eyes went wide.

Before her mane turned a light blue and her eyes turned red.

"You little pest! You'll die for kissing her!"

Discord only had enough time before a bright flash illuminated the scene.

Celestia was gone.

"Where did she go!?" He panicked holding onto Luna.

"I do not know." She muttered quietly.

There were six flashes followed by one blinding one.

Celestia was back and the mane six were wearing the element's.

"Sister what are you doing!? Stop this madness!"

"I’m not the mad one here he is!"

"I'm insane!" He yelled back.

"Twilight use the element's and i promise you'll only spend half of your life on the moon." Celestia growled.

"No!"

Celestia turned to see her student standing between her and Discord, and after her Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rainbowdash, Rarity and Fluttershy.

"I'm giving you a direct order!"

"And I said no! You’re not sane right now! Stop it before somepony gets hurt!"

"No! He will pay!"

She launched forward ramming into him and sending him into the building behind.

Twilight was getting another spell ready when she got shot with a different kind of spell. Her mind went blank and not soon after her friends joined her.

Celestia turned her attention to her sister who was hugging Discord crying.

"Please stop! He didn't do anything! It was only me!" She yelled at her sister.

Celestia only snarled blowing smoke out of her nostrils.

"Twilight fire the elements on my command!"

The mane six got in formation.

"On my mark!"

"Sister please!"

Discord was slightly dazed.

"Get ready!"

"Stop it!"

The six floated up into the air.

Discord had gained his senses back.

"Fire!"

The six shot out the rainbow.

Discord got in the way of Luna.

"Discord no!" Luna cried full of shock.

Celestia finally calmed down enough that she realized what she had done.

Discord was hugging Luna, tears matting both of their fur below their eyes and his bottom torso already stone.

"Luna... I... love...you!" He yelled out letting the last of the stone encase him in the intimate embrace.

"No! No! Discord, why!?" She cried.

"Sister I-"

"You! You did this to him! He didn't even do anything!" Luna said coming out of Discord's embrace.

Letting a single tear fall on his shoulder sizzling. Making the stone dissolve.

"I only wanted to protect you!" Celestia yelled now backing away.

Luna was now turning black and her entire body was getting longer.

"Like how you "Protected" me before!? when you made me turn on him!? When you made him have his own love encase him in stone for a thousand years!?"

"I was-"

Her hair was now red along with her eyes.

"A fool! Do you want to know why I really turned into Nightmare Moon!? It was because of you!"

"M-Me?"

"Yes you! You broke not just his heart but mine too that night! And now I’m going to tear yours out!"

She was charging her horn when she felt something touch her shoulder.

She turned around and saw Discord standing there frowning.

"Luna stop... it's alright." He said hugging her.

She started to turn back into her bulkier midnight blue self before hugging him, crying into his shoulder.

"Luna are you hurt?"

"No, I’m just happy you’re alright."

"I could be better."

"And how is that?"

"If i were to take you on a date."

Luna turned slightly dark until she saw her sister doing a "go on" motion with her hoof.

"I-I would love that."

"How does Prance sound?"

"Wonderful, now come here."

She wanted to hug him again but instead he kissed her.

On the lips.

In front of her sister and the entire town.

Yet she found herself wrapping her fore-hooves around his neck and his arms around her neck.

It felt like hours had passed before they separated.

Luna recovered and held her wings out in front of Discord who simply pushed her wing away and walked straight up to Celestia with a snarl on his face.

"How dare you!"

"Discord listen-"

"No you listen! I love your sister, and if you can't accept that even after a thousand years then you can kiss my tail and send us both to the moon! Because I don't give a damn bucking feather what you think! I'm not hiding anymore; I will fight you if you so much as touch a hair on her! I will make the darkest thing's in Tartarus seem like rabbit's after I’m done with you! So back off or else!" He finished jabbing her in the chest with his eagle talon.

Celestia was scared. She was scared of what was supposed to be the spirit of chaos, something that usually made cotton candy clouds was now threatening her.

She was scared.

"It is alright... You are free from us watching over you. Just make sure you don't make another love potion."

"No it is not alright-wait what!? I can date your sister!?"

"And I hope to have you as family, so yes. Just take care of her, protect her and make sure she doesn’t get hurt."

"Would you quit worrying, I’m going to protect her with my life."

"Good, and I think I owe you all and apology."

"Princess?" Twilight said walking up to her.

"Yes Twilight?"

"Permission to speak freely?"

"Go on."

"What is bucking wrong with you!? You nearly killed everyone in Canterlot, threatened the life of everypony in town, brainwashed me and my friends and had us attack Luna! Have you finally gone insane!?"

Celestia and everyone else could just stare in open shock as they watched the little unicorn heave with her back arched.

"Whew! Glad I finally got that out... heh heh. It feels so good to finally vent my anger towards something other than some boulders! But not as fun as seeing them explode." Twilight finished smiling; not even realizing she had already assaulted her teach/ruler/second mother and cussed her out.

"I'll go repair the damage now." Celestia said before being stopped by Discord.

"Allow me." He said before snapping his fingers letting everything go back to normal.

"Discord if there is anything I can do-"

"Celestia shut up, and let me give you this."

Before she could ask he summoned a sphere of yellow light in his lion paw and plunged into her chest.

Everyone gasped as they saw Discord fall to the ground while Celestia rubbed her head.

"Discord... what did you just do?"

"I... gave you... my mind... altering ability." He wheezed out getting back up only to summon a large glass of lemonade and chugging the glass before throwing the liquid back.

To explode into a goat.

"Why?" She asked.

"So you would trust me. I can't date your sister without you making sure I’m not using her now can i?"

"No, but why me? Why not her?"

"You would have thought I was just using her. I needed your trust so you won't end up trying to kill me again, we wouldn't want another Ghastly Gorge would we?"

Six ponies gasped.

"You and her made Ghastly Gorge!?" Rainbow yelled.

"Yes, yes. But don't worry nothing died. Nothing except my heart..."

"Discord, how about we go home and we just go back to bed?" Luna asked nuzzling him.

"That sound's delightful... but first I think we all deserve a little treat." He snapped his fingers.

"Discord what did you just do?" Luna asked leaning her had back to stare at him.

"Nothing too bad, now look up the show's about to begin! Oh, and if you’re wondering why I called you Skittles Rainbowdash this is why. Quick everyone open their mouth and chew!"

Only him and Pinkie had their mouths open to catch the small colorful candies that were falling from the sky.

Soon after everyone from Canterlot to Hoofington was in a Skittlecane.

While everyone wasn’t looking at him he snapped his fingers again.

He filled Celestia's room with Swiss cheese and put her bed in pudding.

His plan was coming together perfectly.
