"Have you lost your mind?!" Profesor Luna screamed.
Dean Celestia was rubbing her forehead with her fingers. The last thing she needed was her sister complaining.
"Would you please calm down?" She asked annoyed. "I haven't even talked to him yet."
"Why is he even here in the first place?!" Luna yelled. "You do know this is the same guy who stole our parent's car, right?!"
"We were minors! And he didn't steal it! He borrowed the keys and then lost them." Celestia replied. "He told us after."
"Yeah! After our parents called the police!" Luna yelled. "Why are you helping him?! He hasn't even talked to us for the last twenty years!"
"He and I have been writing to each other for the last five years. From time to time." Celestia said. "We are the only family he has Luna."
"Just because we grew up together, doesn't make him part of our family!" Luna replied. "He causes nothing but trouble."
"Listen, he is many things but he would never come near this place unless it's for something serious." Celestia. said. "Can we at least listen to what he has to say?"
Luna rolled her eyes and sighed deeply. She really didn't like this idea, but she trusted her big sister.
"Ugh, fine!" Luna replied. "But if he asks for money, I'll kick him out of here myself!"
"Fair enough." Celestia said smirking.
A knock at the door interrupted the tension. A young girl with glasses entered with a book in her hands.
"Um... Dean Celestia" she said.
"Yes, Twilight? What is it?" Celestia asked.
"Sorry for interrupting. I just wanted to tell you, he is here." Twilight said.
Luna groaned a little and crossed her arms, annoyed. Celestia just looked at her sideways and then looked at Twilight gently again.
"Thank you, Twilight." she said. "Please, let him come in. And you can go to class now. You're gonna be late. I'll see you on your break."
"Thank you, Dean Celestia." Twilight said. She closed the door.
"He is punctual? Well, that's first." Luna said. "How do you know it's not a trick of his?"
"Let's listen to him first okay?" Celestia said.
Luna just rolled her eyes and stood next to her, waiting for him to enter.
Suddenly, a knock alerted them.
"Come in," Celestia said.
The door was opened and who got in only made Luna frown even harder.
The man looked around his early forties. He was wearing a brown jacket, with one yellow sleeve, and the other brown. Dark brown pants and with shoes of different colors. One green and the other mustard. His face was thin, he had a goating growing on his chin, and his hair was dark gray with a few his hair wicks on the sides were light blue and cream. His eyes were red as rubies. He was really a mix of different things, and he wouldn't want it any other way.
"Well, hello ladies! Long time no see! Last time was... when? Our graduation?" the man asked.
"No!" Luna yelled at him. "It was when our father had to pay $1500 to bail you out!"
"Oh, yeah. Right." the man said awkwardly. "I forgot about that. I was drunk, wasn't I?
"Good morning to you too, Discord. It's... good to see you? I guess." Celestia said.
"Hahaha. Good one." said Discord, sarcastically. "You haven't lost your sense of humor, Kay-Kay. That's good."
"It's Dean Celestia to you Discord," Celestia replied. "And can you blame me? Of all the places I thought you would have ended up, I never consider you'd come back here."
"Yeah well. I didn't have much of a choice." Discord said. " You are literally the only people who would ever give me a chance."
"A chance for what?" Luna asked.
"Oh yeah! That's the reason I'm here!" Discord said.
He closed the door, came in, and sat down on one of the chairs in front of Celestia's desk.
"I know things have been... well... "not good" between the three of us." Discord said nervously.
"You think?!" Luna yelled.
"Luna! Calm down!" Celestia said to her sister.
Luna took a deep breath and relaxed.
"Yeah. Well, but you should know, I'm NOT the guy I used to be." Discord said seriously. "Or, at least I try not to be."
"Wait. Really?" Celestia said.
"Believe me. I wouldn't even be here if I wasn't!" Discord replied. "I have really changed a lot of things in my life. I've done some things I'm not proud of, even after the whole incident with your father."
Celestia and Luna looked at each other, curious and a little worried.
"Things... such as?" Luna asked.
"Look, I really don't want to talk about it." Discord said firmly. " Let's just say it wasn't legal, at all. BUT, I've paid for my actions and I want a fresh new start."
"Discord, if you're in danger or something like that, we could always..." Celestia started to say.
"Celestia look. I appreciate that, but it's really okay." Discord interrupted her. "What I really need is help to get a job."
"I... I'm sorry. A what now?" Luna asked.
Discord took a deep breath and sighed.
"I have come back here to apply for a job... as a teacher," he said.
Celestia and Luna just stood there for a minute. Discord looked away and rubbed his arm awkwardly.
Then he heard a snicker and looked up to see Luna trying to hold back her laughter. Until she couldn't keep it anymore.
"HAHAHAHAHA!!!!" Luna laughed. "Y-you!!! Work!!! As a TEACHER?!?! OH, MAN! THIS IS SOOO RICH!!! Isn't this just ironic?! The worst student this college has ever had, wants to become a teacher!?!?! At the same college!!! I-I can't take it!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
Discord rolled his eyes and looked Celestia smirking, trying not to laugh too.
"Yeah, yeah! Haha! Hilarious!" Discord replied. "Listen, can you help me or not?"
Celestia chuckled.
"Discord, no offense but, do you even know any university themes to teach?" Celestia asked.
Discord smirked.
"Well, as a matter of fact, Kay-Kay. I do!" he said. "I happen to love and be an expert in... Chemistry!"
Luna stood frozen.
"You... you what?" she asked.
"Chemistry. I know all about it." Discord answered. "You see, these last fifteen years I really needed money and a living, so I began to read a lot of Chemistry books and to try a lot of experiments. But, for a few years, I used that knowledge for... really messed up stuff. I'm no longer doing that!!! But, the stuff I know is pretty advanced. I figured, if I want to come clean, I could teach it. And what better place to do that than at the same college I went to with my dear friends, and they happen to work here too!?"
Celestia looked at him stunned, while Luna had her jaw dropped.
"Are you insane?!" Luna yelled. "There's NO way, NO how, we could ever hire an ex-convict like you!!!"
"Oh c'mon Lulu. For old times sake?" Discord begged. "I really want to change for the better. I really do! I just need a chance! I know I hurt you two. I'm really sorry! But I really need this! Please?"
Luna groaned, crossed her arms and turned her back at him. Celestia stood there, looking at him, thinking about his situation. Then, she crossed her arms too and looked at him seriously.
"Discord. Are you really sorry for the things you've done? And are you serious about cleaning up your act and becoming a better person?" she asked him seriously.
Discord looked at her in the eyes and took a deep breath.
"Yes. I really am." Discord said. "I really messed up my life Celestia. But I want to fix that. I just need a chance."
Celestia looked at him for a few seconds and then smiled.
"Okay. You're hired." she simply said.
Both Discord and Luna were shocked by what she just said. Celestia simply sat back and smiled satisfied.
"WHAT?! ARE YOU SERIOUS?!" Luna yelled. "Have you gone crazy?!"
"You're... you're serious about this?" Discord asked stunned.
"Yes. I know since we were kids Discord." Celestia said. "I know when you're lying to me. And you're telling me the truth. Just don't make me regret it."
"I promise you, I won't!" Discord said.
"Uh! Excuse me! Am I invisible or something?!" Luna yelled again. "Celestia, we can't trust him! He can't change!"
"Can you at least wait for me to leave?!" Discord replied.
"Celestia! Why are you doing this?" Luna asked her sister.
"Because he's still our friend. And if he really wants to change, we should help him with that." Celestia said. "Besides... we need a Chemistry teacher."
"Seriously?! Is that what this is?" Luna asked again.
"C'mon Lulu. Give me a chance. Please?" Discord said.
Luna narrowed her eyes at him and then looked at her sister, who gave her a stern look. She closed her eyes, took a very deep breath, and relaxed a little.
"Ugh. Okay fine! You can teach here." Luna said. "But! If you destroy a classroom, disrespect the rules, or even touch a student, YOU'RE OUT! Got it?!"
"Look, I promise to behave. But I'll teach my class MY way. Okay?" Discord said. "I promise I'll be careful."
"Very well then. Your class is the last one of today. Perfect time to introduce you to your new students." Celestia calmly said. "Just don't be late."
"Great! I'll see you there then." Discord said. "Thanks, Kay-Kay!"
He stood up and went out of the room, closing the door behind him, leaving the sisters arguing some more. Once he was sure he was alone, he took deep breaths.
"I can't believe it. I... I actually got the job. I actually did it!" Discord said nervously. "Okay. You can do this. Don't mess this up. Teaching a class, how hard can that be?"
