New Life and a Vampire Bat
Discord sat inside the bus, his silver hair falling over his red eyes. In his grasp, he held a packet, "Information For New Students of Ponyville Academy". This is where he would be going to: A new school. Plans for future. But at the time, his stomach felt queasy. He knew he wasn't hear for any good reason.
The draconequus looked outside. Other draconequi passed him on bikes, except they were female (it seemed like everyquess in this town was female..). Their skirts hiked up to their thighs, revealing a large chunk of their white cotton panties.
Trying to ignore the growing erection in his jeans, Discord thought back to about a year ago. He was still in middle school, 8th grade, and all his friends were gathered around, dressed in their black school uniforms.
"I'm so screwed," one of them moaned. "I've got three years of nothing but guys in school." He clenched the packet of papers within his lion paw.
"You're getting off easy," another retorted. "I've got a one-hour commute to school."
"Oh please. Everyquess knows there are lots of cute girls in that school. Right, Discord?" One with a ginger tuft of hair tapped him with a rolled up paper, which was the certificate granting him to his new school, Canterlot High.
"Uh.. Yeah. I guess." Discord shrugged, disappointment in his eyes.
"Dude! Drop it!" The one with brown hair scolded.
The ginger one blushed, embarrassed, and leaned over to Discord. "Well it's really no big deal flunking the entrance exams this year. You'll get 'em next year."
"Yeah, that's right," Brown-hair chimed. "Hang in there."
Discord smiled weakly, but it faded as soon as the draconequi walked away. He watched them go with heavy eyes.
"You guys wanna stop by the arcade?" One of them asked, but Discord couldn't find out who.
"Sure. Sounds good."
"The one that just opened?"
The boys had left. They closed the door, leaving Discord alone in the empty classroom. He sighed and started to walk home. The street was slightly damp with yesterday's drizzle, and his black buckled shoes were squeaking annoyingly. He gripped the paper in his talon, one that said he had failed, all the way home.
When he walked inside, he was greeted by his mom, who ran up to him in a happy outburst. Her puffy, pink tail was flaring excitedly, her eyes streaming tears of joy.
"Discord! Discord!" she exclaimed, hugging him with all her might.
"What is it, mom?" he asked, gently pushing her away, as not to hurt her feelings. Behind her, he caught a glimpse of his exceedingly cocky father.
Eris, his mom, was literally crying tears of joy. She batted them away with a paw as she held up a piece of semi-crinkled paper in her talon. "We've got wonderful news~!"
Erebos, his father, tugged at his white shirt collar with pride. "Take a look there, Son."
Discord's heart skipped a few beats as he saw some print on the paper. He took it from his mother's paws and scanned his eyes through it. "Y-you got me into High School? But I failed the entrance exam." He turned to his parents for an explanation.
"Tell him Erry," Eris cooed, using the nickname she sometimes called her husband.
"Well," Erebos began. "You're old man here just happened to run into this ol' weirdo on the road coming back from work. He dropped this little packet to Ponyville Academy so I snatched it up while he wasn't lookin'. Pretty good, huh?"
Discord kept staring at the packet while his mother joined talons with his dad.
"Oh I'm so happy~! Now we won't have to wait for you to try again next year~!" Her bright lemon eyes shimmered with joy, as she twirled around with her husband.
"I can't believe you got this off the street," Discord exclaimed, but his immature parents weren't listening.
"Best dad ever!" Eris kept spinning around, while her son sighed in the corner.
Discord snapped back to present day when he heard a voice come from the top of the bus. Using common sense, he figured it was the bus driver, considering noques was on here.. For some reason.
"Hey kid."
Discord flicked one grey ear and answered with a croaky voice. "Yeah?"
"You a new student at Ponyville Academy?" The bus driver continued.
"Uh.. Yeah."
"In that case, you better prepare yourself." He took his cigar out of his mouth, which he apparently been smoking, and tapped the ashes into a tray on the dashboard. "That's one scary-ass school."
"What do you mean by that?" Discord felt his tail quivering with fright. The bus driver didn't answer as Discord's phone began to ring. He placed it next to his ear, trying to ignore the chilling conversation he had just had with the driver, and answered whomever was on the other line.
"Discord," somequess creaked on the other line.
"Oh, hi Ataxia. What's up?" The draconequus was relieved to hear somequess he recognized over the phone.
"Listen, Discord, this is kinda urgent. I was talking to your mom about this new school you're going to, Ponyville Academy-"
"-Yeah, that's right."
"Well since my favorite cousin was going to be going there, I wanted to look up some stuff about that school, and you should know that-"
Suddenly, the signal was cut off as they passed through a dark tunnel.
"H-hello? Ataxia? Are you there?"
The tunnel seemed to last forever. Discord finally gave up on checking to see if she was still there and put the phone back in his jean pocket. Dim sunlight started to peek in through the exit of the tunnel as the bus came out.
There were no pink, vibrant cherry blossoms here like there were in Chaostown. Only bare, sad trees where the limbs looked like they would fall off at any moment and potentially strike a visitor. Below a large, gaping cliff was a body of blood red water, the miniature waves crashing against the coastline. In the center of the dry land stood a scare crow, with a pumpkin head, a black cape, and loose, lime green gloves hanging off broken broomsticks.
"Wow," Discord admired in awe. "It's like a completely different world here on the other side of the tunnel." He stared at the scarecrow's carved, black eyes, and its wicked smile. He turned around and faced a building. "Is that the school?"
"I'd watch my back if I were you," the bus driver advised, his doors still open. Discord spun around on his heels. The driver's eyes were gleaming a freakish blue. He didn't look like a draconequus at all, now that Discord noticed. He looked more like a pony, with fluffy, short ears that popped out of his hat and a rounded muzzle. A dark blue tail also swung from his bus outfit. He closed the door quickly and sped off towards the tunnel again.
Discord watched him go. Looking around his surroundings, a chill was sent up his spine. "I- I should call Ataxia again." He reached for his pink phone frantically, his claws finding it. He dialed her number quickly and put the cellular device back up to his ear. The line beeped "No signal" and the draconequus was left alone in a strange land. "That's funny.. I had a signal when we were still in Chaostown." More chills ran through his body as he clenched his school bag tightly, walking through the woods to get to school.
Crows with flashing red eyes looked down on him, their wings flapping, their calls mocking him. The sky was flickering with orange and red, complimenting the naked tree branches .
"I hope I'm going the right way," Discord murmured to himself, his tail flicking wildly about. He passed through a graveyard, cracked tombstones lining the area in every direction. As he stopped for a second, a bustle of bats appeared from the trees and took off flying, screeching with all their might. He stumbled to the ground, picking himself weakly back up.
The draconequus' ears picked up the slight noise of something screeching, even after the bats were gone. Perhaps he had super good hearing, and he was just hearing them from far away... But still, it sounded like it was getting closer.
As the sound grew intensely in his ears, he quickened his pace to a run. His shoes recklessly rummaged over loose, thick tree roots and dead crab grass. His wings flared with a mixture of excitement and fear. What the hell was following him?!
He stopped short as he heard the sound of flapping wings. Looking up, he saw a caramel colored bat with rosy pink cheeks. He smiled mischievously with two dull fangs poking out and said, "Just me~! Kwii!"
Discord sighed. He knew it was just a stupid stray bat. "Aww man.. I can't believe I was scared of a- GAHHH!" Something hard and metal rammed into his spleen, sounding like it was crushing every single bone in his back. He tumbled to the ground, poking one eye open to see what had just happened. A pink bike flew through the air, along with somequess, or something, driving it. As her short, uniformed skirt lifted, he could clearly see her panties.
The girl fell to the ground, her pink hair lying graciously still. The spokes of her bike spun around restlessly before finally giving up.
"O-ow," Discord softly complained, resting a paw on his sore back. He attempted to try to start standing up, even though it hurt. "Damn, that hurt." Reaching for something to pull himself up, he met something squishy and smooth. A female gasp came from somequess when he did that. Looking up, he saw that he had touched some girl's thigh.
Her face was plastered red, as she pushed a strand of hair away from her face. "Oh I'm so sorry... I just suddenly got so dizzy." She opened her eyes, revealing two beautiful teal oculars.
She's... G-Gorgeous. Discord stared back at her. Suddenly, he reached lower down her thigh, his wings stiffening to full max. The girl blushed again, covering her vagina from the boy touching any lower.
"W-wha-wha?" The girl stuttered, her yellow, creamy wings slightly rising as well.
Both of them stood there awkwardly before Discord removed his paws from her leg. He shook them wildly and covered his face, as to prevent a possible punch from the female. He scooted backwards on the dirt, his face lighting up along with her's. "I'm sorry! So sorry! It's not what it looks like I swear!" Blood started to drip from his nostrils in excitement.
"Oh my Celestia! You're bleeding." The girl started to pull things out of her school bag quickly. She finally grabbed a cloth and leaned in close to Discord, their eyes locking again. As she dabbed away the claret from above his lip, the smell of the liquid ran of her own snout. "I- I can't.." She blushed again, trying to hide her face. "I-I shouldn't.." She grabbed at her chest, lightly brushing something that looked like a necklace, the pink gem in the middle in the form of a butterfly. "B-but that smell.." She whiffed it again, slightly licking her pink lips.
Huh? Smell? Discord wondered. He bent his snout toward the mare's mane, taking a good chunk of it in. Ah.. Her hair spells so good.
"Sorry! I can't help it-" She grabbed Discord's head between her hands. "Because I'm a Vampire Bat~!" She reached in, revealing tiny fangs. She leaned over him, biting into the soft flesh on his neck.
Discord stood paralyzed as she bit into him, sucking away valuable blood from his neck.
She continued to drink away his blood until her eyes shot open. She pushed away. "I'm so sorry! I just couldn't help myself!"
"You bit me!" Discord was pooling tears out of his closed eyes. He reopened his collar, where she had bit down, and saw tiny pink mark. It wasn't gushing blood, like he expected it would, and it didn't hurt as much as he thought it would.
The girl picked up a packet of paper she had dropped when she fell from her bike. "Are you going to Ponyville, too?"
"Uh... Yeah... It's my first year."
"That's great~!" She hugged the packet of paper against her round chest. "It's mine too~!"
"Oh.." A bead of sweat pushed down from Discord's silver hair. "So whadda ya know?"
"I have to ask-" The smile disappeared from the mysterious girl's face again as she clenched her two shiny legs together. "What do you think about.. Well about Bat Ponies?" She shifted her legs uncomfortably.
It's a joke. It's gotta be, Discord thought to himself. He stood up, folding his wings back into his back. "They're fine by me." He patted his green uniform shirt and gave his best smile. "I don't have a problem with Bat Ponies in the slightest. If you wanna call yourself a Bat pony, the more power to ya."
"Thank you~!" she cheered, running at him, her arms wide open. She toppled him back down to the ground. Standing on all fours, she pinned Discord to the ground with all her might. He blushed thanks to the position they were in. "Well if that's the case, then how about we be friends? Well whattya think~?"
"Yeah... Sure." The draconequus nodded his head slowly and the girl stood up off of him.
"Fantastic! I was nervous because I didn't have any friends here yet," she admitted. "Oh, my name's Fluttershy by the way."
"And mine's Discord." He covered his pants, trying to hide the boner he was getting. Wow, I can't believe I'm going to school with a mare this cute... This is my lucky day.
The two separated shortly after, each going their way to find their classrooms. Discord was located in Miss Cheerilee's class, a peppy pony with a cotton-candy colored mane and a magenta pelt, so he walked there.
"Well good morning class," she said. On the green chalkboard, the same thing was written in tidy, neat script along with some other things that the class would get to later. "My name is Miss Cheerilee, and I will be teaching you this year~!" Cheerilee wore a tight brown skirt over her pelt and black heels. Over her small, orange T-shirt was a white cropped cardigan. In her hand, she held a baton that she would use to point to things on the board.
Wow! The teacher seems really nice, too! Discord smiled, tossing his head gently back and forth. I really lucked out.
"I'm sure everypony already knows this fact, but Ponyville is an incredibly unique school: One that is exclusively designed for Monster Ponies."
Sure, sure.. Monster Ponies. Discord stopped rocking his head. His eyes nearly bulged out of his brain. Without warning, he felt like his lungs were dried up with no oxygen. Everything was getting smaller.
"Currently," Cheerilee continued on. "The world is well under the control of draconequi and regular ponies. So in order for Monster Ponies like you and I to survive, Class, the only options you and I have are to learn how to coexist with them!" She pointed the baton at the school of eager students.
Whoa- Wha- Teacher! Discord started to raise his paw hesitantly. WHAT?
Ignoring him, Cheerilee trotted happily over to the chalkboard. "And that brings us to our first rule: Except in certain circumstances, as long as you're on campus, you must remain in your Pony or Draconequi form~! Everypony got that?"
Discord's paw was shaking nervously.
"Rule number two: Never, ever reveal your Monster identity to another student. I'm sure you can see why. Everypony will follow these rules, right?"
"Heh. 'Bunch of boring rules," came one student's voice; one that sat relatively close to Discord. He looked over and saw another draconequus (only he was sure that was just his draconequus form) with dark brown slick hair. He was leaning back in his chair, paw and talon behind his back.
"And you are..." Miss Cheerilee raised her role-call book up and read from it. "... Aha! Trebel Manika."
"If we do happen to spot a draconequi or pony, why not just eat 'em? That's what I would do, anyway." Slowly, a slimy tongue crept from his mouth, flicking in and out like a lizard, leaving a terrified Discord to believe he was a Lizard Pony.
He's gotta be joking! Discord gaped, hiding behind his information packet.
"Well now, there's no chance of that ever happening because all the students and teachers are Monsters. So-" A cat tailed replaced her puffy pony one and cat ears popped from the pony ones. "-No exceptions~!
"You see, this school is enclosed in a giant barrier that no draconequi or pony can pass through. Even if they did, they'd be killed immediately~!"
Discord dropped his packet on the floor. It crashed with a thud in the suddenly quiet room. Trebel glared at him as he rushed to scoop it up off the floor. By the time the draconequus got up, Trebel was slithering his tongue like a snake again and using his beady, green eyes to stare at him. Discord hid behind his packets again, cold sweat saturating his tuft of hair.
"Say whatever you want," Trebel said slyly. "But I've been smelling a draconequus this whole time." While the lizard pony continued to glare at Discord, the rest of the class' attention turned to the door, when they saw somepony open it.
"I'm so sorry I'm late!" A sweet voice chirped at the opening. "I got confused as to which class I was supposed to go to.."
Miss Cheerilee turned to her with a smile. "Oh, don't worry. It's alright." She gestured for her to come in. "Go ahead and introduce yourself."
The pony smiled at the front of the class, her pink mane swinging. "Hi~! I'm Fluttershy!"
Mumbles came from the crowd, lots of them from colts. "She's so cute" and "Look at those giant tits!" were famous ones.
Discord looked up finally from his packet, feeling the cold eyes of Trebel no longer burning into him. He met his gaze with Fluttershy and blushed immediately.
She ran at him at full speed and jumped into his arms, her skirt flaring up. The rest of the colts and even some of the mares looked at the guy with envy lurking over them.
"Discord! It's you! Oh, I'm so glad we're in the same class!" Her wings were flapping with excitement, as she remained in his weak arms.
After class was a short break where the students could chat with friends, study, or get a snack or drink from the vending machine nearby the campus. A newly obsessed Fluttershy walked with Discord all the way to the vending machine, envious stallions pointing angry eyes at the draconequus.
I don't get it... What's going on? Discord asked himself in amazement. Is this a dream? It has to be. A school full of nothing but Monster Ponies? That makes no sense.
Fluttershy grabbed a two shiny, gold bits from her breast pocket. Popping them into the vending machine and pressing a button, a tomato juice can rolled out.
Discord copied the action after she had picked hers up, instead getting a can of chocolate milk. He wondered why the mare wasn't drinking lemonade or something like that, but he tossed the question aside.
The two sat down at a bench nearby. Fluttershy pulled out something from her bag, a metal object, and pierced two holes into the can of tomato drink. She stuck her two fangs into the hole, slurping away at the sauce.
Discord watched in awe at her, while he absentmindedly drunk his own chocolate milk.
"This is fun, huh?" she asked, taking a breath from drinking.
"Uh.." Discord was lost as she stared at him. His cheeks burned and he turned his head, trying not to stare at her. She found his red gaze again with a concerned look. Blushing again, he drunk his chocolate milk casually.
I can't believe this cute mare is a real live Bat Pony...
They returned to drinking in silence, murmurs of other students flooding the air.
"Hey there sexy."
Discord and Fluttershy both looked up. Somepony was poking out behind the corner, the same green eyes that Discord knew too well. He spat out a heap of chocolate milk, spraying the air like warm Chaostown drizzle.
"You said you're name was Fluttershy, right?" Trebel approached closer, getting too close to Discord than he liked. Out of no where, he grabbed the draconequus' neck with his strong lion paw. He suspended him in the air against a column.
"No! Let him go!" Fluttershy shrieked, her wings flapping with fear.
"So tell me: What's a smoking hot mare like you making friends with a numb-nuts like this guy?" Trebel turned to Fluttershy. "I mean, come on."
Fluttershy watched in horror, too scared to say anything, as she saw her newly-found friend get hurdled across the sky like a Frisbee, right into the vending machine, majorly denting the front of it.
Trebel smiled grimly as the mare tried to rush to Discord. He grabbed her by the shoulder and tried to plaster his best soothing voice. "Hey... Forget about that punk-ass and hang out with me instead, babe."
Discord's head jerked forward. Cans fell out of the broken machine, tumbling onto his talon. He would have kicked Trebel's ass by now by using his powers, but if the teachers and students found out he was a real draconequus, they'd kill him.
"No way! I prefer to hang out with nice ponies, thank you." She forced his paw off her shoulder and rushed toward Discord. "Discord! Are you alright?" She bent down next to him.
The can Fluttershy dropped when she rushed to get Discord rolled over to Trebel's shoes. Swiping it up with his long tongue, he crushed the can between his sharp teeth, making tomato juice splatter on the ground.
When Discord didn't respond to her questions, Fluttershy used all her might to pick him up. She flapped her wings restlessly and flew far away from Trebel, onto the bridge that crossed two separate parts of the school.
She laid him down on the side of the bridge, kneeling down next to him once more. His eyes were lifeless, closed and tired, and his skin was still. Worry flooded over the mare as she thought of only one thing to do.
She got close to his cheek, pulled out her tongue, and started to lick him.
Until his eyes popped open from the sensation, she didn't stop licking.
"W-were you just licking me?" Discord asked, feeling a wet spot on his face.
"I didn't have any water." Fluttershy tampered with her fingers. "S-so I had to wake you up somehow."
Discord blushed, drying up the saliva with his talon.
"So.. Uh.. That was pretty scary, huh? Are you sure you're okay after that?"
"Yeah..." he said slowly after a couple of minutes. "I'm alright." He flattened his ears, standing up. "He was really strong, though." He looked at Fluttershy, leaning on the bridge railing. So that was Monster power, huh? Crazy strength.
The mare grinned a little. She patted Discord's back, laughing. "Oh Discord, you're so funny! You acted like you'd never seen a Monster Pony before back there~!" She turned to him with wonder. "So what kind of Monster are you anyway? Oh... We're not supposed to reveal our Monster forms. Sorry!"
"But I already know what you are, Fluttershy, since you already told me you were a Bat Pony." The draconequus' tail flicked to and fro as Fluttershy started to blush. She cupped her hands over her face.
"Yeah, I know... But when I told you I had no idea that it was a rule here." She swayed back and forth, her mane and skirt following.
"Ya know, you don't look much like a Bat Pony."
"Well... Not right now. But..." Fluttershy gestured for Discord to look at her. She moved her collar to reveal two large breasts, and something swinging in the middle.
Discord felt his pants get tighter. "WHAAAAAA-? I can't look there!"
"It's okay," Fluttershy soothed. "Look at the necklace. It's called an Element of Harmony. Since I represent the Element of Kindness, it would be horrible for me to release all the negative energy concealed inside it. If I were to take this off, I would turn into an evil more powerful Bat Pony."
"A real Bat Pony?" Discord clarified.
The mare nodded. She grasped the butterfly element in her hand warmly. "That's why I wear it, as a charm to seal away my powers." She tugged at it with a bit of force. "I can't even pull it off myself."
"Uh... Well, that's okay."
Fluttershy looked up. Discord was blushing (he seemed to do that a lot) and gently pulling a strand of grey hair. "Even if you do change into somequess scary, I'm sure you're still the same Fluttershy."
"Ooh~! I knew you would understand~!" She hugged him again. "You're my first friend here!" She looked down, a grin still on her face. "And I have to tell you... You're my first in another way, too."
"In what way?" he asked, curious.
Fluttershy touched her pink lips. "Until now, all I've had was tomato juice... I've never sucked anypony's blood before yours today." She reached slowly for his collar. "Oh... It tasted so sweet... So rich..." She wrapped her arms back around Discord's furry neck. "That feeling... I'll never forget it." She buried her face warmly in his green uniform shirt.
As he breath got closer to his neck, a vision flashed in the draconequus' eyes. Fluttershy's hair hued down to a duller, darker pink, her eyes pierced red. Furry ripples grew from her ears, and her fluffy, feathery wings sharpened into full on bat wings. Her fangs grew larger than her originals, and with sharper points at the end. Frantically, Discord shoved the mare off of him. "I'm s-sorry, but I... Er... Have to go!" He dashed the opposite way, his blue bird and bat wings flapping. "See you later!" he called.
"Why'd he leave?" Fluttershy cocked her head to the side.
Discord raced back into the school, heading for the staircase. He hurried down, nearly slipping due to his speed.
This can't be happening! How can she be so cute and still be a Vampire Bat?
As he got to the first floor, normal looking students looked at him with curiosity. Or, so he thought they looked like normal ponies and draconequi.
Are we really that different?
His eyes ran to one girl with an orange, puffy mane. She was in the form of a pony. She looked normal, with dark green eyes.
So she's a Monster?!
He went to another mare, the form of a draconequus with a messy brown tuft of hair.
And her, too?
Panting, his eyes went all across the room.
All of them look normal, but they're not!
Visions of dark, black spirits rose from them, gleaming eyes staring down at him, laughing at the puny draconequus. He pushed open the door and darted back to the woods, only getting a few feet before he heard a voice call, "Discord!"
He paused and looked behind him, Fluttershy standing there. She was taking short inhales, obviously out of breath from running all the way from the bridge to the first floor.
"You were acting kinda weird back there," she finally said, taking in her fill of air.
Discord gripped his bag, his tail quivering with fear. "I just... I think I should go to a draconequus school."
Fluttershy stood blankly. "A-A draconequus school? Why?"
Taking in all his courage, he spun around, closing his eyes as not to see the reaction on the mare's face. "Look Fluttershy, I really like you but I just can't stay here!"
"No way!" Fluttershy dashed toward him, tears streaming from her eyes. She pulled her fists together in a punch and pounded down on Discord's bag, stealing his grasp from it and taking it for himself. "You can't go to a draconequus school! You just can't!
Discord fought back for his bag, loosing his balance due to the mare's strength. "Fluttershy, please!"
She obeyed him, loosing her grip on the bag, but not letting go of it completely. "I'm sorry..." she began slowly. "It's just that I don't really like draconequi that much. I know because I attended draconequi school all the way until junior high." Fluttershy's eyes hazed back to when she was in 7th grade, 13-years-old.
Two girls were snickering at her element, but Fluttershy tried her best to concentrate.
I was lonely, because draconequi and regular ponies don't believe in Monster Ponies.
Mares were lined up in a row, pretend Bat Pony masks on their face. The masks had big smiles and silly eyes, as to make fun of poor Fluttershy.
On the opposite side, colts were doing the same thing with the same masks.
I felt so different from everypony else. It was like I shouldn't even be there.
The present day campus returned. Fluttershy was batting away tears with her long, thick eyelashes. "That's all I ever thought about while I was there." She looked up with thoughtfulness at Discord. "But you said you didn't mind if I was a Vampire Bat, Discord. And for the first time in my life, I didn't feel alone anymore."
"But still." The draconequus lashed his tail. "What if I turned out to be one of those draconequi you hate so much? Would you still feel the same way about me?"
Fluttershy looked hurt.
Discord's word came out like glue. "I'm a draconequus. I'm sorry, but that's what I am!" Tears started to form in his own eyes, something that was rare. "And the only reason I'm here is because of a major mix-up!"
Fluttershy's wings stiffened in fear. She slowly started to back away from him. "Y-you're lying. You have to be. No draconequus could have gotten in here."
"I should have known you look at me like that."
The words pierced the mare's heart like an icy knife. Her skin shuddered. "I-it's really true, Discord?"
"Just stay away from me!" he barked. "You hate draconequi, right? Don't you?" His red eyes were flaring with anger as his heart ached. "Well that's OK. I don't need you! I don't need Monsters for friends anyway!"
Fluttershy's eyes widened. Tears started to pour out, her butter wings flattening back in.
Discord's eyes cooled down. He immediately regretted saying that, but he couldn't do anything now. Without warning, he swiped his bag up from the floor and ran back into the woods.
"Discord! Wait!" Fluttershy called.
The draconequus rushed through the woods, pass a family of hanging bats, and past the graveyard he had met Fluttershy at. He stopped at a fork, trying to figure out which way he had gone to get from the bus stop the the campus. "Damn, which way do I go? This way?" He sped down one of the paths.
Fluttershy was a couple of yards behind, running out of breath again. Her element clunked hard against her chest, tears streaming from her eyes. Discord...
"So where do you think you're going?"
Fluttershy paused, dreading that voice in her heart.
"You know you're missing class." Trebel appeared from behind one of the naked trees, his tongue poking out of his lips.
"S-sorry. I'm busy now."
Trebel chuckled to himself. Suddenly, his shoulders started to bulk up. His olive pupils shrunk, and his tongue split into two parts. His brown hair spiraled out wildly, releasing the draconequus disguise he was using before. His shirt and uniform ripped away from his body, revealing a scaly armor-build. His teeth sharpened to maximum as he laughed louder to himself. "How do you like this, babe? I'm an Ork Pony!" He shot his tongue out of his mouth, hooking onto Fluttershy's legs.
"Ahh!" she screamed.
Discord's ears pricked up, his super-sensitive hearing once again being somewhat useful. He turned around, eyes filled with worry. "That sounded like Fluttershy. She sounded like she was in trouble."
He clenched his talon and pulled his paw up. Flicking one finger, a tiny spark came out. I could help her with my magic... But then the teachers... He crushed his paw as well, gritting his teeth.
Fluttershy lay covered in saliva from head to toe. Her wings were fully out, each of the feathers covered in a thick layer of spit. Her eyes were closed, her pink hair drenched.
"Come on, I showed you my Monster power, now show me yours," Trebel insisted like a two-year-old toddler. "Don't tell me a sexy little thing like you is actually shy."
"For one it's against school rules," Fluttershy pepped up, wiping some spit away from her mouth.
"You're already skipping class, so that rule doesn't mean shit to me!" Trebel lashed his slimy tongue again, grabbing onto the mare's boot. He hurled her across the air, sending her crashing into a tree, back first.
Her body crackled, as her eyes felt as if they were going to sink into her brain. Large amounts of spittle ejected from her mouth. Trebel dropped her and retracted his tongue like a cat's claws. He panted, looking as if he was going to eat her in a second, when he heard "stop it!"
Trebel looked back and saw a determined Discord.
"You! Get the hell away from her now!"
Fluttershy's stomach felt like jelly. Blood racked over her face as she opened her mouth to talk faintly. "D-discord."
Trebel towered over Discord. "What was that?"
Too scared to answer and to react, Discord stood there blank. Trebel swiped at him with one giant claw, blood gushing from the wound on his back. The draconequus toppled down the hill, rocks loosening as he fell.
Trebel laughed as he watched the periled Discord roll down. "What the fuck are you? A Monster or a mouse? You're pathetic."
Fluttershy mustered herself up, her back cracking with every movement. Her feathers were bent and split as she hurried down the cliff-side to Discord.
"Hey you! Get back here!" Trebel slid after her, turf stirring up thanks to his supreme weight.
The world seemed blurry when Discord opened his eyes. He saw the scarecrow he had been staring at when he first came to Ponyville, but even that seemed to be hazy. Despite the pain, he laughed silently to himself inside his head. He closed his eyes.
The bus stop.. So this is where it is.
"Discord!" Fluttershy fell to her knees at the bottom of the cliff, desperately using her little bit of strength to pick herself up. She hurried over to him, grabbing his head and neck in her lap. "I'm sorry!" she cried. "I'm so sorry! But you have to wake up! Use your powers, please! I know you're a draconequus!" Tears pooled down. "Why won't you answer me?"
"Come on pussy, wake up." Trebel slid down the rest of the cliff, cracking the ground where he landed. He laughed, his voice taunting.
Discord still remained lifeless, his wings outstretched. Fluttershy was desperately trying to shake him awake. Solemnly, Discord's talon grasped onto one of the mare's breasts. She blushed letting out the same noise she had made when Discord first touched her.
"Am I watching soft porn? What is this shit?" Trebel growled. He rested his brow on his eyes. "Enough with this! I'm gonna kill you both!" He started to rush toward the couple at full speed.
"Discord!" Fluttershy screamed. "Wake-!"
She felt something escape from her neck. Something was missing, and Discord was holding it between his weak paw. Fluttershy looked down at Discord's paw. It was loosely grasping her Element of Harmony. "D-Discord?!"
The draconequus smiled, one chipped tooth showing.
Suddenly, Fluttershy felt herself changing. Darkness from her element flooded inside her, taking control of her once docile form. A bright light shown through the woods, as the mare's body began to drastically morph into a different pony.
Trebel tried to block out the bright beam of light with one of his beefy arms to no avail. A giant, red moon replaced the blazing sun in the sky. Dark bats ran from it, swirling around Fluttershy's body. Her ears prickled as a bat wing swung by it, her bust increasing with a screech. She opened one eye with confidence, the hue blazing rouge. As she raised one slim leg in the air, the light stopped, and the bats flooded toward her, covering her body.
"Wha... What the hell's this?" Trebel asked, his teeth grinding with fear. "She looks different." It sounded as if he was speaking to Discord, for some reason. "...And scary. That's not the same Fluttershy."
Discord forced one eye open. He was still holding on to her butterfly charm. "S-she transformed." His thoughts brought him back to earlier, with the still calm Fluttershy.
"If I were to take this off, I would turn into an evil more powerful Bat Pony."
Discord gawked, present day returning. "S-so that's the true form?"
Bats started to peel off her like skin, revealing some of her leg, her shirt, and her piercing red eye. As if they were on cue, as soon as the "Eye-bat" fell, the rest of them followed suit after, screeching and howling all the way back to the moon.
"T-the tales! T-they're true!" Trebel gazed in horror at the pony before him: Dark, pink hair, spiking ears, sharp bat wings, red eyes, and giant fangs that poked out from her lips. "She's an S-class super monster! A real Bat Pony!"
Flutterbat pushed a strand of hair from her face, smiling grimly. "So, I suppose you're the one who woke me up then, huh?"
What the hell? What's wrong with me? Trebel shuddered. I mean, she's only staring at me but I can't stop shaking. He shook his head wildly. No man, this isn't right. I mean, if you took down a Bat Pony, you'd be hot shit. He forced himself to stop shaking as Flutterbat let out an bored yawn.
"It's time for you to know you're place," she said, after finishing.
Trebel was confused.
"Allow me to demonstrate." She smiled. Quickly raising a leg, she kicked her shoe into his cheek with full force, sending him streaking across the ground, blood leaking from his cuts as more of them appeared.
The Ork slammed into the cliff side, leaving the previously loosened rocks to topple on it. "Y-yes ma'am.. I'll remember that," he said dizzily.
Flutterbat gave him a look, as to say, "you better be telling the fucking truth."
A-amazing. That dude stopped attacking her with just one kick. It's like she's not even the same Fluttershy anymore. Discord thought. She's so strong... He hazily got to his feet, seeing doubles of the mare, thanks to his damaged seeing. I wonder... Which one is the real Fluttershy?
He fell back again, still weak. Flutterbat grabbed onto him and rested him in between the crevice of her breasts. He inhaled a strand of her mane.
Still the same sweet smell as before.
Discord woke up, laying on something squishy and tender. He looked up and saw Fluttershy, the normal one, waiting anxiously.
"Oh thank Celestia! You're finally awake, Discord!" she said joyfully.
Discord rubbed his head and looked at the dented cliff where Trebel had previously been lying. "Where did Trebel go?"
"Oh you're not hurt? Are you?" Fluttershy ignored his question and grabbed his head, inspecting his face.
What's happening? Did I dream all of this? He looked at the bus schedule lying on the floor, which was originally attached to the scarecrow, but had disconnected during the fight, he supposed. "T-the bus doesn't come at different times, but different days?!" He tried to clarify his assumptions by leaning in to view it better. "What?! Am I reading this right, the bus only comes here once a month?!"
Fluttershy nodded innocently. "Didn't you know that when you got your information packet?" Her attention quickly drifted when she caught the smell of something tasty. Her eyes scanned over Discord's face again. "Oh no! You're bleeding!" A scrape he had gotten from rolling down the hill was leaking out a tiny amount of blood. "Here, let me help you." She licked her lips reaching in for a bite.
Dear Mom, Dad, and Ataxia,
I know this letter won't reach you in a while due to the weird bus schedule, but I'm writing to you anyway. My new school at Ponyville Academy turned out to be a really odd sort of place. To tell you the truth, I almost considered leaving and heading home right away. However, I've decided to stick it out awhile longer to see how it plays out. You see, I've made a new friend. And well... She likes my...
