//------------------------------// // The Return of an old Enemy // Story: I'll protect you // by Wonder Dash Rock //------------------------------// Discord's P.O.V I woke up to the sound of hoof-steps. I got out of bed and went to check on Fluttershy. I heard her crying and talking to herself. She told herself many hurtful thing anypony would not like to hear. She called herself, stupid, ugly, a weak shy nopony. I felt very bad for her. I wondered what made her feel this way. I watched as she opened her window and flew out of it. I thought for a moment and I decided to follow her. I flew out of the window after her. I kept a close distance and hid behind a cloud when nessesary. When she landed in the middle of an open field I sat down on a cloud right above her. Fluttershy's P.O.V. When I landed I sighed and I wanted to cry again but my eyes were out of tears. I just sighed again. My eyes started to close, but they opened to hear a voice behind me. I turned around and saw Rarity. "Hello Rarity." I said smiling. "What are you doing up at this hour?" "Well I have something I need to give you and I couldn't wait till morning." She excitingly. "Well ok." I said as I started to walk toward her. She turned around and I saw her cutie mark. It was ONE big gem instead of three. "YOUR NOT RARITY! I screamed. "She turned around and said, "Why of course I am." "No! The real Rarity has three gems as her cutie mark!" The imposter growled at me and her eyes glowed green. I shook with fear as the Rarity I saw changed into Queen Chrysalis. "Queen Chrysalis!" I screamed, "I thought that you were banished to the Changling Forest!" "Well my dear, we broke free from the spell that was keeping us there." She said. "Now that I am free I have come to get what I need." "W-what would t-that be?" "YOU!" She yelled as she fired a green laser at me. I doaged them by flying in the air, but it was getting harder and harder. I knew that I had to get help. Help from the Princesses. But they're all in Canterlot. I sighed and said, "Wings don't fail me now." and I flew away toward their castle as fast as Rainbow Dash. Discord's P.O.V I watched as Fluttershy yelled at the imposter and the imposter turn into Queen of the Changlings. I watched as she flew away toward Canterlot. I couldn't follow her now. So I decided to go back to Fluttershy's cottage.
