For the next week, Discord, Hurricane, Lumen and Teddy got settled in. After everything that had happened, they needed a vacation… Sadly, Celestia called a meeting of herself, Luna, the Mane Six, and thirty-seven Royal Guards… Yeah, nice welcoming party, I know. Luckily(for Lumen), Discord was able to postpone it so as to give Lumen a few days to recuperate. In that time, Hurricane spent a lot of time with the girl. They were getting along better than Discord had seen since… Ever…
Discord told Celestia that in a week, Lumen would be fine. They’d meet the girls, and Discord hoped that they didn’t react violently. Heaven knows what that Rainbow would do.
So, he made a plan. He created a fake pony during the Ponyville capital thing, and he quite frankly liked how it looked. When the day finally came, he put his plan into action.
“Lumen! Hurricane! Get down here!” As Discord shouted this, a human girl holding a Teddy Bear between her arms came running down the stairs. And a cyan pegasus came through the wall.
Hurricane saluted. “Ready for duty!”
Lumen stifled a giggle, and so did Teddy. Discord was less than amused.
“Don’t do that. It’s no fun. I’m not your commander, but I am no lesser. I am the lord of Chaos, and you’ll address me with: sup.”
Hurricane was speechless, and Lumen couldn’t hold it in. She fell on the ground, cackling like a mad child. After a few seconds, Discord joined in. Hurricane rolled her eyes.
“Yeah, ha ha, very funny… Don’t we have a schedule to keep?” At that, Discord got up and looked at his watch.
His hair went up, and turned white as a white hazmat suit appeared on him mismatched body. “Great Scott! We were supposed to be at Canterlot three hours ago!” A grin spread over his face. “I guess we’ll have to take a shortcut then…”
Lumen cheered as she turned into a purple Earth Pony with swirling purple eyes, curly hair that were purple and white, and a jirohat. Hurricane’s eyes grew wide.
“N-not the…” She trailed off as Discord laughed.
“Oh yes!” He picked the two ponies(leaving Teddy alone) and opened his mouth. The two looked down into his mouth, which grew bigger and bigger, until it was bigger than them.
“Uh-oh~” Lumen said before Discord dropped them. They fell into his stomach, and the Spirit of Chaos closed the “porthole”.
A red cape appeared on his back, and he pulled an umbrella out of nowhere. He closed it, and flew under the ground, as the ‘Can Can’ played.
Celestia sat in the Throne room in Canterlot. In front of her were the Element’s of Harmony, Spike, and four Royal Guards. Celestia didn’t care how “reformed” Discord was. She wouldn’t take that chance.
Rainbow yawned. She asked, “Where is he!? Shouldn’t he be here by now?”
Fluttershy cut in, “Maybe something happened… Oh, I hpe he’s ok-”
Before Fluttershy could finish, the throne room doors burst open with a large belch, and two ponies flew out of Discord’s mouth.
Hurricane spit, “Eww! Why do you even do that! It’s disgusting!”
Lumen looked sick to her stomach. Discord ignored the two, and walked in, talon and paw behind his back.
“Hello Fluttershy my dear! And Pinkie Pie.” He turned from his friend and favorite Element of Harmony and saw the guards and rest, “Oh, and you guys too…”
Celestia gave him a suspicious look, and the girls backed up(excluding the two he barfed and two he greeted).
Luna stepped forward. “We would like to meet this daughter of thous.”
Lumen started backing up a bit, and Celestia’s stare narrowed. Luna didn’t seem alarmed, frightened, or angry. Because she wasn’t. On the outside, she wished to meet the filly, while on the inside, the princess pitied her.
Discord smiled, “Of course!” He pushed Lumen forward, “Go on! Say hi!”
Lumen fought to keep composure. It wasn’t as hard as when she met the weird version of Luna, it was harder!
Lumen remembered what her father told her. “I-I’m Screw Ball! Daughter of Chaos!” Lumen emphasized this by pulling out a bundle of joy buzzers. She giggled nervously, “Wrong pocket…”
Fluttershy let out a squee, “Aww, she’s so cute… Hello Screw Ball, my name is Fluttershy. I’m friends with your father.”
Lumen- er, Screw Ball smiled, almost forgetting the Princesses. Pinkie bounced forward, and locked the filly in a bone crushing hug… That didn’t seem to faze Screw Ball much, only to settle in and… Enjoy it?
The other girls seemed to be less trusting. Twilight stepped forward, and asked.
“So… If your Discord’s daughter, then how’d you live so long. Discord was turned to stone, but you weren’t.”
Screw Ball wasn’t fazed by that either. “I was sent into an eternal dream state. Some kind of protection magic daddy used on me.”
Twilight didn’t seem to buy it, but Applejack did. The farmer mare stepped forward and whistled. “Oh! That musta been some dream! Ah’d ask, but that’d be a bit much ‘ta, seein’ as it was fer a thousand years.”
That seemed to snap everypony else out of their mistrust.
{Lumen/Screw Ball’s PoV}
Why were they doing this? Why was Sun-Butt looking at me with disgust? It was unnerving to say the least.
The mare’s in the room seemed to snap to Hurricane as she cleared her throat.
“Why did we need to come here anyway?”
As soon as the words left her lips, Celestia’s stare intensified. “Luna convinced me that it would be good for Discord and Screw Ball to settle down in Ponyville.”
Luna cut in. “I thought having the Element bearers, and Spirit of Chaos together in the same town -which has a history for attacks- so as to increase efficiency. It’d be more easier to call for you or Discord’s aid if all of you are in the same place.”
Some of the Element’s seemed uneasy. The rainbow haired, stetson wearing, posh, and purple one’s the most. The pink and shy one’s seemed excited.
The pink one hugged me and spun around with me in her hooves. I was grinning like crazy.
“Oooohhh! Ooohhh!!! I could throw you a ‘Welcome to Ponyville’ party! It’d have cake, ice cream, balloons, streamers, pin-the-tail-on-the-ponyabunchof-” Before she could continue, she froze. “TWITCHY TAIL!!!”
She jumped(with me still in her vicegrip) to the side, and a Pegasus Guard came flying through a stainglass window…
Awesome.
The guard skidded to a halt, and didn’t move. Two guards grabbed the fallen pony and flead…
Uh…
Pinkie whispered under her breath, “So, you wanna do this the hard way. Huh?” She looked down at me, and dropped her grip. “Sorry, gotta run!”
She dashed out, leaving a speechless… Well, everypony behind.
I decide to break the silence. “Who was that?” Everypony looked at me, but none answered. They seemed like they were going to, but I continued, “She seems AWESOME!!!”
And silence fell again...
Yay for Lumen! And nice job for somehow making this canon with Screwball!
Lumen is screwball...YAY!
Yay!
I am loving this more please
I will survive!!!!!
6179940 Thank you. I'll try getting it out soon!
6179954
Becareful of pinkamena...........
Why should he worry? I only want to make cupcakes!!!
Hopefully the whole body swap is just a practical joke Discord is doing. I've never liked the Screwball OC.
6179954 It's too dangerous taking on Pinkie alone. *Grabs a baby Fluttershy* Take this with you.
Wondering if it is going to be permanent and if she would be that acceptant, if it was. Discord didn't say anything to her about this, so she probably thinks of is as some kind of joke or...chaos. Would be good, if he had a talk with her about this form.
Uh, wouldn't' celestia and luna remember lumens human form from when they blasted her?
6187371 Lumen isn't human though. She's in pony form. Celestia remembered, and that's why she gave Lumen the stink eye.
6187402 Yeah, but what i mean is, she saw her as a human all those years ago, and now discord says she's a pony, wouldn't she say; "she looked like a different creature back then" or something?
6187422 But he called Lumen Screwball. Celestia can't just call him out, Fluttershy would defend her. And what does it matter? Other than make her seem racist, nothing. And if she speak out about what's bothering her, Discord would go berserk. And Luna was on the moon for so long that she forgot the details.
6187453 oh, ok
I don't understand why lumen was transformed into screwball
6212621 Zecora, Iron Will, Gilda, Discord himself. All of them were treated differently because they weren't ponies. If Lumen is a pony, then Rainbow wouldn't think her evil just by the sight of her, Rarity wouldn't think her disgusting, Applejack wouldn't trust her as much, Twilight wouldn't study her too much, and Fluttershy wouldn't go all: "Oh my goodness! A new creture!". I mean, Lumen is a hairless ape.
i really like the story so far and cant wait for the next chapters to come
Why author you keep trying to catch pinkie HER POWER IS UNSTOPPABLE. ACCEPT THE TRUTH.
By the way GREAT story I can't wait for more
6335825 what if he created... a second Pinkie! A blue one!
6406466 NO no that's impossible the universe is not ready YOU WILL DOOM US ALL
But I wonder will she be any different at all
6408930 nope. No difference at all. She's just blue and trying to capture Pinkie. Other than that, she's indistinguishable.
I didn´t understood what happened, but I guess it was just that again right? Again, I won´t force you to make it different, but I don´t think I like those moments to much.
6529294 Gizmo: Oh Pinkieeee
Pinkie: Yeah?
Gizmo: I finished your orbital party cannon!
Pinkie: Great! I can use it on Author now!!!
Gizmo: *with a terrified look on his face*What have I done?!?!
