Chapter 2- Brother I am ‘Occupied’
That blasted door interrupted my time with Dissy! Whoever is at that door will meet my wrath! I left my love at the table fully silent as I walk to the doorway and across the living room. I will be upset—no, pissed! Pissed That any of my friends would dare to interrupt my special night.
Before reaching the door, I tried to take a deep breath, “Calm down Fluttershy, just see who is up this late and see what they want first before cussing them out for interfering with my date with Discord.”
As the doorbell rang again, I unlock the top and bottom latches but left the chain lock in place just in case. I crack open the door just to take a peek to see who it was on the other side of the door. Once I recognized the intruder, I shut the door to remove the chain latch before opening it again, greeting the pony before me—My brother.
“Hey Sis!” said Zephyr Breeze...in all of Luna’s nights why did he decide to come to my home late in the night?
“Zephyr!” I said shockingly, “W-w-what are you doing here?” Normally I would be welcoming to have my brother visit, but this was not the time at all to visit, let alone to chat.
“Well,” he said hesitantly, “Let’s just say that I am in a tight pickle at my apartment in Canterlot and I just need to take a breather from that city.”
In other words, he got kicked out of the apartment again and now needs to crash at my place until he finds himself a new place to stay. “Brother, I am not in the mood to deal with you. And I can’t let you bug mom and dad again,” I sigh for my love is in the other room tied to a chair and waiting for me. “So go to a motel in Ponyville and tomorrow we can talk about-”.
“Thanks, Sis!” He interrupts me as he starts to shove his stuff into my living room. I wanted nothing more than to strangle him-- but he is my brother and I have my Discord waiting for me. He continues to lift his suitcase upstairs. “I’ll take the guest room. And don’t bother coming to me while I sleep like a baby. Make sure your stupid chickens don’t wake me up this time, Okay, bye~!”
He reached the top of the stairs and slam the door behind him before I could talk to him. My rage is boiling, completely outraged by my brother being rude and enter my home without permission. He….ruined…..my date with Discord.
I screamed as I fling my hoof at a picture frame without thinking or even caring if I broke it. I marched back to the kitchen as my eyes, fueled with rage, look up at Discord. I know that he would be concern about my scream, but right now I have to get him back to the bunker before dealing with my bane of my existence brother. I grabbed the key and unlocked his cuffs after I reattach the golden chain back around the shock collar. With Discord’s plea for help, I knew I had to make him as secure as possible. I could’ve used the tranquilizer again but from what happened last time, I can’t risk hurting my love.
I yanked the chain strong enough that it’ll throw Discord off his seat and onto the ground. I want to kick something to get all of my rages out, but I can’t hurt my Discord even though he deserves it. I just need to hide him again. I slid my stove to the right side, revealing a medium hatch on the wall that leads to the bunker before opening it.
Discord was struggling to get up as I quickly tug the chain to bring him back to the ground again. “Do not test me Discord,” I said sneering at him, showing that if he tries to run, I will hurt him. He slowly nods and I just turn and start tugging him into the bunker and its dark abyss.
As we finally down to the bunker, I rushed to open the cage door and guide my love back to his cage. Discord, still with a gag around his mouth, was being very cooperative and, to me, it was a good sign that he trusts me again. My Discord always knows how to make my heart aflutter. “I’m sorry that our date got cut short. But I promise to make it up to you tomorrow.” I give him a warm and gentle smile and he just gives me a slow and cautious nod.
“You can take the gag off Discord, you’re hands are free,” He did as he was told but he was giving me that scared face. “My love, why are you afraid of? It’s Zephyr, isn’t it? Oh, don’t you worry, he will be gone by tomorrow. I will make sure of that.” I shut the cage door and blow a kiss towards him. “Sleep well, Discord. For tomorrow, our teatime will be very special,” I said as I walk towards the staircase and leaving Discord alone in the darkness once more.
I exit out of the bunker and move the stove back to where it belongs. Once that was done, I took a moment then sigh heavily with tears in my eyes threatening to shed. Why does the world want me and Discord to be separated...why does the world hate our relationship?
One tear flows down on my cheek as my thoughts continued. Why does the world want Discord? Why….why….why Discord? I felt my hooves clenching on the stove hard as my anger rises. More tears started flowing. The world will not take my Dissy away again. We will be together forever no matter what it takes.
“Sister!” I heard Zephyr from upstairs, “I need some warm blankets it is cold up here.”
I knew right then who is trying to separate my beloved from me, and I know how to handle this minor inconvenience. I glance at the tranquilizer and a twisted smile formed across my face as the tears still haven’t stopped.
