The Elements of Disharmony
The Confrontation 2
Previous ChapterNext Chapter"What is taking Flutter Shy so long? It's almost seven."
"Twilight it's six thirty," Said Applejack sitting on the couch. "Ah'm only here because I have nothing else to do."
"No something's up she said she was only feeding her birds."
"Okay so lets say that she's in trouble, what do you want to do?" Said Apple Jack.
"Go to her house is what I would do but I guess that would mean that I'm not in the house, and the would mean I wouldn't be following the rules because I wouldn't get back in time, and I don't break the rules."
"Okay then lets stay here."
Twilight sat down on her chair.
"Alright. Lets see these book princess Celestia gave me." She opens the box and pulls out a journal.
"Huh this is Cruelty's journal."
She vigorously reads the book within five minutes.
"Cruelty had a lover?" She said confused.
"Why don't they have names Twilight?" Apple Jack said curiously.
"I don't know. Maybe they do they just don't go by them." She says uncertain.
"Huh..." Flutter Shy Says as she opens her eyes slowly.
"Whoa, Slow down there tiger." Cruelty said with a calm soothing voice.
"What happened?" She said, as Cruelty face was right above her.
"You passed out. I brought you in and put a blanket on you so you didn't catch a cold." He said as he slowly gave her a cup of tea. "Here I put some stuff in it that helps with situations like this."
"Thank you but I have to get going." She tried standing up but started to fall. Cruelty grabbed her before she could land face first.
"I got you." He said with a soft tone that he hasn't used in over a thousand years. "If you are so eager to go I will carry you there."
"Oh no it's okay." She said as she gently pushed him away.
"Are you sure?" He said with a caring tone in his voice. She started to walk
"Yeah I'm..." She hit the ground and got a bruise on the left of her face.
"Alright I'm carrying you." as he picked her up and put her on his back. "Okay lets head out." He started walking to the door
"Wait I need to feed my birds."
He stopped and looked at Angel. "You got this?" Angel nodded and Cruelty started his journey.
"Okay so where is this place you wants to go to?" He said looking around.
"Its ahead just start walking." He started on the yellow stones, thinking about this great discovery he has found.
"Has anyone told you what beautiful eyes you have?" He said to Flutter Shy with a charming tone. She blushed and didn't say a word. He smiled and looked over to his left to see a single crimson rose. He went over and plucked it.
"Can you hold this for me?" He said handing it to Flutter Shy.
"Yeah."
She said taking it. "You know I still don’t know your name." She said to him.
"Well, I don't have one but you can give me one."
"Okay. I will think about a name for you"
"Okay. Sounds good. So where is it." He said as he stopped and looked around
"Oh take a right"
"Okay." He took a left.
"Uh Your other right" She said with a giggle.
"I knew that." He said as he turned around.
"Okay now Ah'm worried too." Said Apple Jack pacing back and forth with Twilight. "It's still six fifty five every pony. Calm down." Said Rainbow Dash looking out side. She turned around to look at Pinkie Pie.
"Do you ever sleep?"
"Of course I do silly filly." She said jumping up and down.
"Okay. Just wondering. You just seem so energetic all of the time. To the point that you look like you can't sleep because of the excitement."
A knock appears at the door. Twilight opens it.
"Flutter Shy...who are you?" she said with a confused look on her face.
"Well you aren't just going to leave a colt outside to freeze to death are you?" Cruelty said with a joking sound in his voice.
"No come in." He walks in with Flutter Shy still on his back but asleep.
"So what's your name?" Pinkie Pie said with excitement in her voice. "Because I've never seen you before. So you must be new."
"Well I don't have a name but I go by Cruelty. Nice to meet you."
Every ones jaw was open.
"What, is that an unusual name? Well I guess it is." Twilight starts up her horn.
"So you are one of the elements of Disharmony?"
"I'm guessing you are a Element of Harmony then huh. I would usually try to kill you but I mean you no harm today."
He said staring into her eyes.
"Let her go."
"She's not my prisoner. She…"
Rainbow Dash interjected what he was going to say next with
"She has a bruise on her face" looking like she could charge at him.
"She fell."
"Yeah right maybe after you hit her." Apple Jack said. Cruelty started to power his horn.
"I'm going to tell you one time before I skin you and eat the flesh off of your bones. Back off. I will tell you what happened, and for starters, why would I bring her here if I meant to harm her?" Twilight backed down.
"Good point. Fine you have ten minutes to explain what happened."
