Twilight's Secret

Pride

On the TARDIS

Twilight was nearly finished with her tour of the TARDIS, the last place left to go was the library, where she intended to show off the way it was organized, and the best places to read, books she recommended, and so on. She was so caught up in her plans that she bumped into the Doctor on the way, whose arms were overflowing with supplies to fix the damage the mudings had done.

“Oh, hello Twilight,” The Doctor greeted, “are you and your friends having fun?”

Twilight nodded, “I’ve been explaining to them the history of the TARDIS and what it’s for.”

“Can this thing really travel anywhere?” Dash asked flying up The Doctor.

“Absolutely, and to any time.” He confirmed.

The group began to chat a bit, sadly not knowing that those few seconds of conversation caused them to miss their chances to catch the stowaways by the names of Applebloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo.

The CMC had spent several minutes poking around the main control room, debating on whether or not they should push the buttons around them to see what they do. Applebloom had talked them out of button pushing on the grounds that such a strange machine could break, leaving Derpy upset. So instead the group decided to explore one of the many branching hallways. As they left on their little expedition, they soon discovered the game room. When the Doctor had regenerated into a pony universe, he had felt the need to add a massive arcade complete with games, claw machines, and a slushy maker. Sweet. Safe to say the group decided they should hang out there for a while.

Once the Doctor had fixed the ship, and Twilight had finished her hour long tour of the library, the adults of the TARDIS met up in the main room. The Doctor then recruited the help of the main six, and together they all shoved the massive aluminum bottle that was nearly full to the brim with mud monsters, into the TARDIS.

In the main room, the Doctor stood before his new gang and said, “Alright then, let’s get these guys home, shall we?” He told them to hold on to something as he excitedly ran around the TARDIS pushing the buttons and pulling the switches necessary to leave time and space.

In Canterlot

Luna stood her perch guarding the night with a small sleepy expression. The setting was so dull, and her duties were pretty pointless seeing how nothing ever happened on the night watch. In her boredom, she saw a shooting star and smiled. She closed her eyes tight wishing silently for something remotely cool to take place. It turned out to be a bad wish.

Suddenly she was falling, gravity had reversed and she was shooting through the sky away from the castle. “Help!” She yelled as she landed with a thud on…something. She blinked the spots from her eyes and realized she was sitting on the floor of the throne room. Screaming was heard and she turned to see her sister being chased into the room by what looked to be a swarm of breezies. The little creatures were zipping around her mane and shoving her through the hallways into the massive throne room.

“STOP!’ Celestia yelled to the creatures, royal Canterlot voice at full height, “I DEMAND YOU LEAVE ME BE!” As she stumbled into the room the swarm disappeared into thin air, not even leaving a trace. She blinked and her eyes fell on Luna. “What has happened?” She demanded. “Is this one of your pranks?”

Luna was at loss for words, she simply shook her head in utter confusion. But it was at this moment that Celestia’s attention shifted, she realized the throne room looked different. The throne itself was turned away from the alicorns, and…and…was on a swivel?

The new swivel chair slowly rotated around and an all too familiar voice said, “Well, well, well, I was wondering when you two would show up.” He was petting a cat that disappeared as he stood and began to walk toward the princesses. “You’re late you know.” Discord smiled, shoving a piece of cake into his mouth and grinning, “I hope you don’t mind Celestia dear, but I have snagged a treat or two from your fridge.”

“Discord,” Celestia said dangerously, “YOU HAVE STOLEN MY CAKE AND DISTURBED MY SLUMBER FOR THE LAST TIME! PREPARE TO DO BATTLE!”

Discord laughed, stealing the fourth wall treading lines that accompanied the royal voice and using one as a toothpick. “You’re cranky when you wake up huh princess? I’ll make you a new cake if it means that much to you.” He waved his claw and a delicious triple fudge cake appeared. “For you my love.” He gave a mock bow and presented the gift.

Celestia narrowed her eyes but accepted the cake, grabbing it with her magic and placing it on a nearby table, “Are you just here to annoy us?” She asked as Luna went to observe the tasty dish.

Discord gave a smile, “Oh a little bit of that, but mostly I would like to gossip.” He batted his eyelashes and was suddenly leaning on a school desk dressed as a teenager “For one thing,” he spoke with a valley girl accent, “did you, like, know Twilight is fooling around with chaotic magic?” He giggled, and suddenly wore the outfit of a cop, “Not to mention a few other illegal things.” Than he was sitting by the table with Luna, cutting a slice of cake for the three of them and serving it up.

“Do you really expect me to believe that Discord?” Celestia demanded, regally trotting over to the god of chaos. “Twilight would never involve herself in something like that.”

“Maybe not in something like that, but she would involve herself in somepony like that. Especially one as cute as the stallion she described.”

Luna gasped at this staring at Discord, “You mean to tell us that…Twilight has a coltfriend?” She asked, crossed between shocked and overjoyed.

Discord gave a little chuckle “That’s precisely what I mean to tell you Luna dear.”

Celestia stared “So she found somepony who she likes, versed in chaos magic…” She gulped, “Why are you telling us this Discord?”

Discords eyes shone with amusement and…pride? Luna couldn’t tell. He turned to Celestia and said slyly, “Because the apple doesn’t fall to far from the tree, dear Celestia. I just thought you would want to know, you taught her well, she’s practically a mini version of you.”

Celestia blushed but didn’t protest as Discord moved toward her and wrapped her in a hug, planting a soft kiss on her lips. He pulled away from her and produced a single rose, placing it in her mane. Then he said, with the most gentle and sweet tone Luna had ever heard from him, “You should be proud.” He leaned in closer and said, barely a whisper, “I am.” Then he was gone.

This left Luna to stare at her blushing sister, “I believe you have some explaining to do.” She told her.

Author's Note:

Third chapter everypony! What can I say about it? I came up a blank and resorted to shipping. And I'm quite glad I did! Tell me in the comments, should I leave the Celestia plot at an end there, or run with it and be going back and forth between what's happening on the TARDIS and whats happening in the real world? Now that the TARDIS has left Derpy's yard, I can get the adventure ark rolling in the next chapter. Please review, tell me what you think.

Please Review!

This is beginning to get interesting. I think you should keep the Celestia plot and switch back and forth. That;s just my opinion on it though,

[lunaisbestpony1]

4379940 Thank you! I think so too, switching will help me a bit when the plot starts to drag.

[Thunder Quill]

This reminds me of my story, The Princess and The Lord of time...

[lunaisbestpony1]

4380000 I haven't read it. I can if you want me to. Did you like it ok?

[Thunder Quill]

4380003 yeah, I like it so far.

[lunaisbestpony1]

4380015 Thank you!! I wrote the first 2 chapters months ago, but I wasn't able to post the third one until today. Also I'd wager that your story sounds like mine seeing how your's was first posted in April and mine in February.

[Thunder Quill]

4380025 I didn't even know about your story until now.

[lunaisbestpony1]

4380032 Eh, nopony does really, I think mine is a fairly good fic, but not near as good as the other fics on the site. I'm just glad hat somepony took the time to read it. thanks for that.

[Thunder Quill]

4380050 No Problem, here, have a follow!

[lunaisbestpony1]

4380055 Yay! You have one too!

[Thunder Quill]

4380064 Thanks.

I'll need more than this if I'm going to review it for you... But it needs a little work from what I can see, while you wrote the Doctor's randomness beautifully, I feel it was lacking in some way I can't quite put to words. It has a lot of potential, I see a lot of wonderful Timey Whimeyness, but If you are planning on making this your principle fic, perhaps you should consider writing a few one shots and smaller pieces to get some more practice.

Maybe read some of the more popular fics on FIM. Like this one for instance Foal of the Forest. It has five sequels and is extremely indepth and well written.

Hope this helps a little

4399964 Thank you! The first chapter is a little shaky, but it gets much better come chapter two.
