//------------------------------// // Fluttershy married a cabbage? // Story: What If... // by TheMajorTechie //------------------------------// Snakelike shadows crept along the dimly-lit walls of the cottage. Nary a footstep could be heard as the creature slithered through the air on mismatched wings, his silhouette broken only by the faint glint of a knife in the lantern-light. The figure stopped before a closed door. A gnarled claw set upon the doorknob and twisted. Little by little, the door began to creak open. The creature slithered through. "F ʟ ᴜ ᴛ ᴛ ᴇ ʀ s ʜ ʏ." Discord wailed with the sound of twenty-nine dying goats. "Wʜʏ ʜᴀᴠᴇ ʏᴏᴜ ғᴏʀsᴀᴋᴇɴ ᴍᴇ?" Fluttershy looked up from her thoroughly-kissed cabbage. "Go away Discord, I'm having fun holding hooves with Mister Cabbage here." "R ᴇ ᴘ ʟ ᴀ ᴄ ᴇ ᴅ ʙ ʏ ᴀ ᴄ ᴀ ʙ ʙ ᴀ ɢ ᴇ!" Discord continued crying. "Yᴏᴜ ʜᴀᴠᴇ ɢᴏɴᴇ ᴍᴀᴅ!" Fluttershy flipped her mane. "Well, maybe I just wanted a little less chaos. Do you know how many times I had to calm down the animals around town whenever you showed up?" Discord screamed as he turned to dust.
