I smirked this is going to be great, I have never had a date before. I grabbed a green and yellow suit, I hope Trixie likes this. I walked over to her room, I opened the door to see her trotting over to me in a light blue dress. My mouth was literally on the floor. She giggled “You look good too now come on silly, we are going out tonight aren’t we?”
I smiled “Of course. I am a little curious as to your healing?”
She frowned “Rarity exhausted herself to heal me, she would be probably sleeping off an extensive magic drain.”
I said “Remind me to thank her later.” Trixie nodded, we arrived at large pink restaurant. I smiled “Welcome to the Lover’s Nest.”
Trixie blinked “Why is it called that?”
I smiled “It's a place for loving couples to dine at, It’s run by a griffin if I remember correctly.”
Trixie smiled “Sounds perfect for a pair of ponies going out on a date or in this case a pony and a Draconequus.”
We entered to find a griffin at the front, he said “I’ll take you two a seat, I must admit it’s a pleasant surprise to see you here Mr Discord. You were not one to seek out a partner.”
I smiled “I found somepony who understands me and what I’ve been through.” Trixie smiled at me.
I suddenly felt a malice in the air, I turned around to see a tall lanky stallion glaring at me as he roughly chopped some vegetables. I frowned as the griffin guided us to a table, I shook off the frown and asked “Could we have some water while we skim your menu?”
The griffin smiled “Of course, Mr Discord. I hope you enjoy your meal. I’m the head Chef, Golden Goose.” Trixie and I chuckled slightly, he smiled “Yeah, my parents were weird. They thought because of my golden feathers I’d start laying golden eggs, it was embarrassing.”
Trixie rubbed the back of her head “Sorry.”
He laughed “It’s alright, I’m glad you found it funny and the fact you apologised shows you care, don’t worry about it.”
I frowned as he walked away “Trixie, who was that stallion glaring at us.”
She sighed “He’s the Sui Chef, he is the father of Snails. I turned his son into an old stallion during the incident with the amulet.”
I asked “Do you want to go someplace else?”
Trixie shook her head “No, I’m sure it will be fine. He would be crazy to try and hurt me here.” I sighed, I hope she’s right, ponies can just an unpredictable as me if not more so at times.
I asked “So what do you want to eat?”
Trixie skimmed the menu, she smiled “I’d like a Red Bean Curry. I’ve always had a taste for spicy food.”
I looked over the menu, I smiled “Oh a Beef Stew, perfect.” Trixie’s smile became strained.
I asked “What’s wrong?”
Trixie sighed “The idea of eating cows is a little of putting. I know a few cows and they were very friendly.”
I sighed “I’m sorry.”
She smiled “Don’t worry about it, I’ll get used to it. You’re an omnivore after all and you’re very fun to be around.”
Golden Goose returned he asked “Here is your water, may I take your orders.”
I smiled after taking a sip “I would like a Beef Stew and she would like a Red Bean Curry.”
He smiled “Thank you sir, your meal will be ready shortly.”
Trixie said “This place is very quiet, I mean we are the only ones here. How does this place stay in business.”
I smiled “These restaurants are actually been propping up and are often known as the churches of love.” I pointed to a statue of Princess Cadence in all her glory. I said “Ever since the coronation of Cadence, these place have been made. They are technically funded by the Princesses as places of worships.”
Trixie frowned “Why don’t Celestia and Luna have places like this?”
I frowned “They do, but both the Order of the Sun and the Order of the Moon are technically cults, they are known for murders and killings. What I have noticed is the Order of the Moon has vanished into the shadows and more recently has become a lot less aggressive.”
Trixie giggled “I wonder how Twilight will react to whatever crazy thing they do for her.”
I laughed “Yeah, it would be hilarious. I am so goings to tease her about it when it happens, ponies running around Equestria preaching friendship in her name.”
Trixie smiled “I might join you in on that, it sounds fun. Still we must know the limits, we aren’t exactly the most well liked.”
I sighed “Your right, still maybe once that starts to blow over we can be a little more loose.”
Trixie nodded “Maybe, we’ll see.”
Golden Goose had returned with our food. I noticed my food was cooked to perfection, I shoved my mouth into the food. I looked up to see Trixie slowly eating with a smile. Golden Goose smiled at us “I’m glad you enjoying your meal.”
I smiled “Well it’s quite good, thank you for…” I turned around to see Trixie coughing. I hasped as she vomited up blood onto the table, she then fell off the chair. I teleported over to her side, I shouted as I shook her “Trixie, Trixie please respond.” I could feel tears welling up in my eyes.
I turned to see Golden Goose sniffing the food, his eyes widened as he picked up what it was. He roared “DAMN IT!”
I cowered scared of the answer to my question “What is it?”
He said angrily “It’s the Tartarus damned blood flower. I’m sorry sir but you will need to arrange a funeral.”
I cried “No, no there’s gotta be a way to fix this.”
He shook his head as tear flew out of his face “There is no cure, it kills within minutes.”
I cried “I can’t let it end like this.” I put my claws on her chest, I poured my magic into her body as fast as I could. I begged “Come on please work, I refuse to be helpless.” I felt my reserves depleting it wasn’t working. No, my full power, the power I haven’t used since I sealed my sister away, the promise I made to myself to never use again, I will break for the only mare who understands the pain and the anguish. Still this time I will use the power to save not to hurt. I felt my full power surge through me into Trixie’s body, I smiled as the last of my power left my body. All I saw was her body rising into the air as the world turned dark.
