Children of Harmony

by Flora Spectrum

Chapter 6

A lavender alicorn filly raced through the halls of the Canterlot Palace. Her golden mane adorned with light blue streaks flowed freely behind her as she escaped what she could only define as torture. She rounded a corner and slid to a stop in front of one of the many palace guards.

“Quick! You’ve got to hide me!” she pleaded with the stoic stallion before her.

“I don’t think that is a good idea your highness,” he said while remaining expressionless.

“Please!” she begged while altering her sky blue eyes to be as big as possible and sticking her bottom lip out into a pout. However, the guard only snorted in return. “Fine!” she yelled while stomping her front hoof and glaring, “As princess and member of the royal family, I demand you give me your armor at once!”

The guard rolled his eyes and levitated his armor off and placed it onto the small filly. She felt the weight become bearable as the armor’s enchantment activated and transformed her into a replica of the rest of the unicorn guards. It felt odd at first to not have wings anymore, but she knew this would only last for a moment.

The original guard, now transformed back into his usual appearance, stood next to her as if he was asking for directions. Moments later, a flustered princess slid to a stop in front of the two.

“Have you seen my daughter?” she asked panting. The faux guard extended his front hoof to the left and she nodded while muttering, “For a filly named Harmony she likes to create a lot of chaos. Maybe she’s been around Discord too much…”

Harmony felt as if a light bulb had lit up inside her head. Discord! I can always count on Discord to help me! After her mother had disappeared, Harmony levitated the armor off and back onto the guard. “Thanks for your help!” she called as she took off running once more, “I won’t tell mom if you won’t!” She ignored the snort she received in reply as she rounded the corner and into another pony.

She looked up to see a colt a few years older than her with a dark golden coat and a two-tone blue mane staring down at her with lavender eyes.

“I’m so glad I found you!” she said as she instantly recognized the colt, “have you seen Discord anywhere?”

“No I haven’t,” he said slowly, “May I ask why?”

“I need him to cause a little bit of chaos! Not a whole lot, just enough to keep mom distracted.” She explained with a smile.

“Why in Equestria would you do that to mom?” He asked out of pure amazement.

“To escape torture!” She cried.

“Okay. Now you’re not making any sense.”

“Mom is trying to catch me and make me put my mane up all fancy and put on a dress and stuff!”

The colt in front of her face-hoofed. “Sis, you told me yourself you like to wear dresses, especially the ones Rarity makes for you.”

“I do! But it means we’re going to one of the boring royal dinner parties tonight!” she whined, “They shouldn’t even be called parties because they’re no fun at all!”

Her brother sighed and held out his hoof, “Come on.” His sister placed her fore hoof to his and after a single blink and a distinct rush, she found herself in one of her favorite places.

Lustrous Armor teleported to a small balcony with his younger sister where he knew she loved to spend nights stargazing with Princess Luna. While the stars were not yet out, the sun was currently setting making for an excellent view. She giggled and ran to the edge and stretched to look over the short wall meant to keep ponies from falling.

He walked over and lifted her up and placed her on his back as she smiled at the beautiful sunset before them. Despite his special talent, represented by his cutie mark consisting of a shield partially hidden by a brush of magic, he knew he couldn’t protect her from all the evils in the world, including boring dinner parties. However, by bringing her up here, he could keep her, and himself, from the sometimes over bearing royal duties.

Just seeing that look on her face though, he thought to himself as he paired her smile with one of his own, that’s enough for me.

I laughed so hard at Harmony^^ I can totally see a filly twilight do something similar back in her day So i think she got the majority of her character from her mother^^
Btw anyone else seeing Celestia and Luna hiding in some corner while watching harmony causing a ruckus with a bag of popcorn in hoof? I sure can^^

[Flora Spectrum]

3565735 I can imagine Celestia and Luna helping in the ruckus!

[KibaWR]

3665594 its prolly the last one^^ Twicord is one of the most famous discord ships, nex only to Discord/Celestia and Discord/Pinkie^^

My replies to the majority of your comments:

I'm glad you liked the idea for Arianne's cutie mark!

For who i shipped RD with, I kind of thought maybe Soarin' just because of the green eyes, but for each I never really had a specific pony in mind. However, I will say I didn't really consider to ship Twilight and Discord, I just figured another pony. I really didn't want to name specific ponies to avoid arguments or any serious hating. Could you imagine what would have happened if I had shipped Twilight with Flash Sentry? Madness.

Thanks for taking the time to comment and I hope you liked it!

Okay, I have seen Fluttercord, Pinkiecord, Celesticord and Lunacord thoug! But on the other hoof, I don't usually read so many stories whit Twlight alone as mane character, it is more of Apple Jack, the royal princesses, and as good as all bacround characters!
